TURKEY AND GREECE.

There was no meeting of the Ambassadors on Sunday,
as announced by the official journals of Paris. The last
meeting took place on Wednesday afternoon. It was
merely for the purpose of receiving the signature of
Djemil Pasha to the protocol. The Liberte says the
affirmative reply of the Porte to the Turkish Ambassador's
request for instructions was accompanied by several
reserves and restrictions, which, howe\ er, did not hamper
the work of the plenipotentiaries. M. Waleweki,
according to this journal, is to start for Athens on
Friday.

Sir C. E. Trevelyan writes to the Times in support of
the case of Greece. He quotes despatches from Prince
Leopold, sent to the Duke of Wellington and Lord Aber-
deen in 1830, in which possession of Crete is insisted upon
as the only means of giving security to the new
Greek State. Sir C. E. Trevelyan points to the chronic
state of unsettlement caused by the wrongs of
Crete as the justification of this forecast. The
best way, he argues, to keep Russia at a distance
is not to oppose the natural and reasonable development
of the Eastern Christian populations. To this the Times
answers, that the Porte would not obtain one hour of peace
by the cession of Crete, that the means by which Greece
seeks to carry out her views are altogether unjustifiable,
and lastly, that she is in league, if not in alliance, with
Russia, the military power to be guarded against.
A blue-book has recently been published at Athens
containing despatches relative to this difficulty with
Turkey. The interest of these documents is chiefly retro.
spective ; but one point is noticeable—the bitterness with
which the Greek Minister at Constantinople speaks of the
attitude of the French Ambassador, and the warmth with
which he praises the Russian representative.
The Independence Beige is inclined to take a gloomy view
of the prospects of the Ottoman Empire. There is some
talk of another conspiracy in Constantinople, several
arrests having been made, and the peace of the empire is
menaced on the Persian frontier. With the remembrance
of the last conspiracy still fresh, it will be well to put
little faith in the bare report of a second ; but the Persian
affair seems more serious. The difficulty has arisen through
some violation of territory; but whatever may be the
cause, the effect has been the rapid concentration of
Persian troops in the neighbonrhood of Erzeroum. The
Etendard believes that even if peace be assured it will be
difficult to reconcile Turkey and Greece, after the mea-
sures taken against Greek subjects iu the Ottoman
dominions.

THE LATE MEMBER FOR LAMBETH.

" William Roupell, Esq., M.P." who was in 1862
sentenced to imprisonment for life for forgery, has
had a comparatively short imprisonment. His health
seems to have suffered from his confinement, so he is
released on ticket of leave. Probably Mr. Baron
Bramwell would remonstrate against such a release ;
and it is certainly only in these latter days that such
a plea would be answered by release. But the once
member for Lambeth is hardly likely to trouble the
police again, and, taken altogether, his life is not
such as would lead any other man to commit his
" mistake " because he came out of prison at the
end of six years instead of dying there.

ME. DODDS, M.P.

It is not often that successful candidates get their
election expenses paid. That generosity on the part
of electors is, always excepting Mr. Bright's case,
usually reserved for the defeated competitor. Mr.
Dodds, the member for the new borough of Stockton-
on-Tees, has not only won the seat, but had a present
of £1,109 presented to him to cover his expenses ;
expenses which he declares were occasioned by
" frivolous and vexatious opposition." As his oppo-
nent polled only 867 to his own 2,470, there seems
some ground for this charge. Lord Ernest Vane
Tempest will not have even the small satisfaction of
thinking that lie made his rival pay for his victory.

THAMES.

IDLE PAUPERS.--Henry Clover, aged 23 years,
Wm. Bell, 31, James Young, 32, Edward Murray,
17, John Mitchell, 20, and George Thomas, 35,
were brought before Mr. Benson charged with re-
fusing to perform a task of work in the casual ward
of the Ratcliff Workhouse, to which they were ad-
mitted last night. Before they went to bed they
had the usual rations for their supper, and a break-
fast this morning. On being asked to pick 21bs.
of oakum, they all said they could not do it. On
being asked to make an attempt and try what the
could do, they refused to do anything.
Mr. Benson said the prisoners were able-bodied,
lazy fellows, and ought to be ashamed oT themselves.
He should send them to a place where they would
be compelled to work, and that very hard too. He
committed them to the House of Correction for 21
days and kept to hard labour.

WRECKS.—On Sunday rnorninga French schooner
and the brig Thomas, of Poole, were driven by a heavy
gale of wind on the Padstow Bar, Cornwall, where they
went to pieces. The crews:were rescued by the lifeboat.
A meeting of artists, including painters, sculp-
tors, architects, engravers, photographers, ehromo-litho-
graphers, and others, was held, Dec. 30, at the studios of
Messrs. Macdonald, Marshall, and Wilson, No. 697, Broad-
way, New York, for the purpose of taking step,' to secure
better protection for the rights of artists in their works.
SUICIDE OF A SALESMAN.—Yesterday Mr. Thos.
Butler, a meat-salesman in the New Market, committed
suicide, at his residence, by cutting his throat. He is re-
ported to be in affluent circumstances. Mr. Butler WAS an
elderly man, and no reason can at present be assigned
for his committing this rash act.
THE MARKING OF GOLD CHAINS.—At a quarterly
meeting of the Birmingham Assay Masters, it has been re-
solved "that the guardians see no reason for departing
from the present practice of the Birmingham Assay-office
in the assaying and marking of gold chains—namely, to
assay only such gold chains as are of such fashion and
make as to allow of their being satisfactorily assayed and
marked on every link; the bars, the swivels, and the
i links are assayed separately, and the standard mark s
struck upon every liuk as well as upon the bar and swivel.'
This decision will be a great security, so far as the public
is concerned.

INVESTITURE OF THE PRINCE OF
WALES WITH THE ORDER OP TILE
BLACK EAGLE.

BERLIN, J.N. 20.—Yesterday afternoon, at half-past
two, a chapter of the knights of the Order of the Black
Eagle was held in the royal palace to invest his Royal
Highness the Prince of Wales, with the insignia of the
order. The investiture:took place in the Ritter Saal (hall
of the knights), in the presence of the King, the royal
princes, and the other knights of the order, all wearing the
robes, and attended by the officials, pages, and heralds. His
Majesty having taken his place upon the throne, Count
Stilifried, the chief master of the cerem on ies,was commanded
to introduce the Prince of Wales. Thereupon, preceded
by the heralds and conducted by Count Stillfried, the
Crown Prince of Prussia and Prince Adalbert proceeded
to the Brandenburg Chamber, and there received the
Prince of Wales and accompanied him to the steps of
the throne. The two princes remained as sponsors by the
side of the new knight until the conclusion of the cere-
mony. The King expressed to the Prince of Wales the
pleasure he felt in receiving his Royal Highness into the
order, and more especially on that day (18th January),
the anniversary of its foundation. The Prince then took
the customary vow, and was invested with the mantle by
his sponsors, after which, again approaching the throne,
the Grand Master placed round his neck the knightly
chain and bestowed the accolade. As the King of Prussia
placed round the neck of the Prince the chain, his
Majesty said that he experienced great pleasure in thus
bestowing upon the Prince the same chain, which his
illustrious father, the Prince Consort, had formerly worn.
After the investiture the King and the knights of the
order, preceded by the pages, went to the Chapter-room of
the order. The Ministers and all the Court officials were
present at the ceremony, as well as the suites of the
respective princes, and a special invitation had also been
sent to Lord Loftus, the English Ambassador, who,
together with the members of the Embassy, attended the
investiture.— Beuter's Express.

FINALITY.

. .
The Reform League has at 14. st come to the con.
elusion that further agitation on the manhood suf-
frage question is needless. The League undoubtedli,
did a great deal towards the settlement—such as
is—of Reform ; but of late it has• committed a series
of blunders. Not one of its members, though pro-
vided with funds from the public, was returned at
the election ; its discussions, though carried on regu-
larly, have become dry and dreary ; and the mistake
made by its Council—though not in its " official "
capacity—in the matter of Mr. Johnson's banquet
disgusted even the Daily News. On Wednesday
notice was given of the intention of the Council to
submit a resolution to the League, setting forth that:
though manhood suffrage is the only satisfactory
basis of the franchise, yet, considering'the advisability
of ending an injurious agitation, the League will be
satisfied with an extended lodger franchise, the repeal
of the ratepaying clauses, the Ballot, and a better
redistribution of seats. When this has been obtained
the League will be happy to terminate its own
existence. •

• • THE NATIONAL TAXATION.
Professor Leone Levi has giveu us his views
respecting Mr. Baxter's treatise on the national
taxation. Professor Levi says that his own calcula-
tions respecting the incomes of . the .several
agree in the main with the figures of Mr. 8a%.-I.c].-,
although they differ from them in detail. - The Pro-
fessor thinks, however, that Mr. Baxter has ranked
the respective incomes of the three classes
of the community each a stage too high ;
and that having thus taken too high an
estimate of the incomes, he necessarily assumes
a proportionally high expenditure. The work-
ing classes consume much more tea, sugar, and
broad that, those above them, M
while r. Baxter
allows them a very unfair share of the taxes on
spirits. Unfortunately, the working classes con-
tribute a very ;large proportion of their incomes
to the State through the taxes on spirits, and
thus, through their own Wlt, they really pay heavily
in proportion to their meanie. Professor Levi asks
what is the cause of the increse of pauperism and
crime throughout the country ; ond he answers, that
it is not that the working classes earn little, and not
that they are overtaxed, but that they are given to
an excessive consumption of spirits, Let them be
but sober, he emphatically adds, and they need pay
very little to the revenue.

postpone the consideration of them till a mooting to be
held in Loudon about the time of Epsoui races, when a

In case of his resolutions being carried, Sir Joseph
Hawley will further propose that the eatries for the Derby,
and other races at Newmarket, Epsom, and Ascot, which
have usually closed after the Newmarket July Meeting,
shall not close till the Tuesday after the Houghton, and
that the races which have closed on the Tuesday after the
Houghton, shall not close till the first Tuesday inJanuary.
Colonel Forester has given notice that, provided Sir
Joseph Frawley's first and second resolutions be not car-
ried, he will move that the following resolutions bo con
sidered in their place : _ _ _

1. That no two-year-old shall run beL)re the Ist of

vention of either of these rules to be disqualified from

Club are in force, and the resolutions, if passed, not to
be applicable to races already closed and entered for.

MARLBOROTJGH-STREET.

NOVEL SYSTEM OF FRAM—Charles Rhodes, a ser-
vant, out of place, was brought before Mr. Knox on a war-
rant by Sergeant Cole, 23 C, charged with obtaining
money by fraud, from Mrs. Carlton, wife of Mr. James
clariton, coffee house-keeper, of No. 4, North-row, Gros-
venor-square,

Mrs, Oarltou said that the prisoner had been in the
habit for some time past of coming to her house as a cus-
tomer, and, on different occasions, tendering ter in pay-
ment of his bill, what she took to 'co sovereigns, but
which were merely shilling gilt. [The coins were pro-
duced, and the words "One S.hVtiir;a:" had been attempted
to be erased, but lin4 been very clumsily operated on.]
She laikcf,4 the cons on receiving them in ono piece of
paper, and did not find out that they were not sovereigns
till some day after.

Mr, Erma said that as far as he understood the prisoner
each time tendered a sovereign, which was not one, and
reeeived 10s. change.
Sergeant Cole said that was the case. On taking t}..;3
prisoner into custody he said that he bad only Mrs
Carlton twice, and that ho could prove it was all wrong.

In answer to the prisoner, the prosecutrix said that she
received four coins altogether from him.
The prisoner was committed for trial.
WINDOW SMASHINCi—COMMITTAL FOR TRIAL—TWO
miserable-looking women named Mary Smith and Jane
Realls were charged before Mr. Knox with breaking two
panes of glass of the value of £3O, the property of Me
Alfred Faulkner, hosier, 107, Regent-street.
_ _

Mr. Faulkner said that about six o'clock the previous
evening he was called down stairs, and found that the pri-
soners bad each broken a pane of glass of the value of £l5
each. The women admitted that they had broken the
window, and did not appear to want to get away, and said
that all that they wanted was to be locked up.
James Taylor, assistant to Mr. Faulkner,:said that while
taking some things from the window he heard two crashes,
and on going outside found two panes of glass in the win-
dow smashed, and the prisoners standing there. They
said that they wanted to be locked up for a night's lodging.
Polioe-oonstable John Holman, 37 C R, said the pri-
goners were given into his custody for breaking the win-
dow, and they said they had done it with stones, and the
stones were Froduced. Smith said, on being asked why
she did not go to the workhouse, that she had been to the
casual ward so often that she was ashamed to go any
more. She also said that she had been to the House of
Detention for six months for a similar offence in Regent-
street, and 01300 had a month for tearing up her clothes in
a workhouse, and that all she wanted was to be locked up.
Mr. Knox said that as for being locked up the prisoners
had managed so well that they would, no doubt, be locked
up for a long time, as they had rendered themselves liable
to five years' penal servitude. The prisoners would be
committed for trial.

ITALY.

The correspondent of the Daily News relates a dues
between a deputy and a commendatore. They fought
a barrire, being placed at a distance of thirty paces, each
having the right to advance ten paces, and to discharge
their pistols either on arriving at the extremity of the
intermediate space or at any point of the ten
paces which they had respectively to traverse.
The combat lasted about an hour, the pistols
being loaded six times. The seconds thought
this enough. "An hour of intrepidity before the mouth
of a hostile pistol, re-loaded six times, is a thing to do
honour to any gentleman ;" and hence the firing was to
cease. The amount of honour to be derived from the
hour of intrepidity depends altogether upon the character
of the weapons and the charge put in them. As one
went off before aim was taken, and as another did not go
off at all, there is some doubt on this point. But if the
remaining ten charges were " good," the amount of intre•
pidity compressed into the hour was really remarkable,
and would have done honour to any gentlemen—in any
other situation.

A great part of the Italian soldiers who are on furlough
have been recalled. This measure, however, has no belli-
cose significance. All the infantry have been armed with
breechloaders, and the object of this recall is to give the
entire army fifteen days' practice •of the new weapon,
which, by the way, is only a temporary one. It is a con-
verted rifle, and will shortly be given to the National
Guard, whilst the regular troops will be armed with the
Albini or Remington breechloader.
