IRISH EDUCATION.

In reply to Mr. HENNESIZY,
Mr. CARDWELL said that no change would bo made
ul ni. ,y.t.rtm of national education in Ireland without ac-
quainting the tivnar previously.

LA NAZIONE ARMATA.
Mr. STANSFELD asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether it was true or not that, towards the
end of December last, a public association, entitled "La
Na.zione Armata," having for its object the voluntary arm-
ing and organisation of large numbers of the population of
the 'kingdom of Sardinia, was proposed by two members of
the Chambers, Signori Brofferio and Sineo, and the presi-
dency, with the consent of the King, accepted by Garibaldi;
and whether, about the same time, a Royal Decree appoint-
ing General Garibaldi Inspector in Chief of the National
Guard of the Kingdom had been determined upon, and was
on the point of being signed by the King ; and, further,
whether, under these circumstances, Sir James Hudson,
her Majesty's Ambassador at Turin, under instructions
from the Government at home, and in conjunction with the
French Ainbassador, or otherwise, on the 2d day of January,
or on any other occasion, protested to the King against
such measures which his Majesty was supposed, of his own
free will, to be about to adopt, stating, in the name of her
Majesty's Government, that the good oifices of Great Britain,
in the present crisis of Italian affairs, would be withdrawn
if such proposed measures were persisted in ?
Lord J. RUSSELL, who was very inaudible in the re-
porters' gallery, was understood "to say that from a private
letter he understood there was such an association as that
alluded to, but that it was considered unconstitutional, not
being under the control of the king of the country. Sir
James Hudson had received no instructions from the Go-
vernment to make'any suchE statement as that stated.
OATH T AKN BY RE CRUIT S.
Lord W. GRAHAM asked the Secretary of State for
War whether he had taken into consideration the oath
taken by recruits on attestation, with a view to an altera-
tion of the same ?
Mr. S. HERBERT said that the subject was under
consideration.

MARTIN ESCALANTE.
Sir A. AGNEW asked the Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, if it was true that the British consul at Cadiz al-
lowed Martin Escalante, a British subject, to remain up-
wards of seven months in prison untried, and also delayed
or declined to take him under his prdtection, although (at
tho instigation of the Spanish judge) an application was
made to the consul to do so.
Lord J. RUSSELL said that the British ambassador at
Madrid had communicated with the British consul at
Cadiz on the subject, and it appeared that Escalanto had
committed an offence against the Spanish law, but that
slops had been taken to prevent his detention in prison
longer• than was necessary.

PROFESSIONAL BRETHREN..--E.NAPP V. FOLEY.

Plaintiff is a solicitor, of Gresham-street, and defendant
is a solicitor, of Welbeck-street.
Mr. Treherne, for the plaintiff, said this was a claim to
recover a sum of £lO Os. 6d. for money lent to, and paid
for, the defendant by the plaintiff. Plaintiff had lent the
defendant £6 3s. to enable him to take out his certificate ; a
further sum was also lent to pay some foes, and defendant
had given an I 0 U for £9 ss. Plaintiff had paid some
money :for the defendant for clothes, and the debt
was swelled to £1 Os. 6d. more. He (Mr. Treherne) had
sued for £lO Os. 6d., but the real amount was £lO ss. Id.
Defendant had pleaded a set-off for £25, but was not
present to support it.
Mr. Knapp was called, and proved paying and lending
the various sums to the amount of £lO ss. Gd.

The learned secondary then directed the jury to find for
the plaintiff for £lO as. Gd.
➢ir. Treherne—l have only sued for £lO Os. Gd. Can the
particulars bo amended.

The learned Secondary—The count for general damage,
will cover that.

Verdict for £lO ss. Gd. and certificate for costs.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—(This Day:

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Willes.)
CHARGE OP MURDER.

Ann Green, 27, unmarried, was indicted for the wilful
murder of her female infant child.

The prisoner, it will be recollected from the facts that
have already appeared in The Sun, was a domestic servant
in the service of a licensed victualler in Hackney ; and very
shortly after its birth the body of the child was found con-
cealed amongst some rubbish. The prisoner denied having
given birth to the child, but the medi(ml evidence proved
this to be false.

The jury found the prisoner guilty of the minor offence
•f concealment of birth.

The learned Judge sentenced the pri Boner to 12 months
imprisonment.

SHOCKING MURDER IN LIVERPOOL,

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.

Yesterday afternoon the body of a man lyre
descried in one of the timber-yards near the Canada
Dock, under circumstances which leave no doubt
that a most brutal'. and cold-blooded murder had
been committed.

It appears that about one o'clock Thomas Wil-
liams, one of the workmen of Messrs. Houghton
and Smith, timber merchants, who rent premises
in the space adjoining the Canada Dock, discovered
in a cart-way the body of a man lying in a pool of
muddy water ; and on examination, he found that
death had been caused by a frightful wound on the
throat, which nearly severed the head from the
body. An alarm was at once given, and the body
removed to the dead-house. Search was made near
the spot, but no knife or other weapon could be
found—thus at once showing that the unfortunate
man had not committed suicide, the nature of the
wound being such that he could not have moved
from the spot had it been self-inflicted, and the in-
strument of death must have been found near.

The police are making active inquiries, but the
body has not yet been identified. An inquest will
take place to-morrow.
The body appears to be that of a man about 30
years of age. It was dressed in drab and white
trousers, "mixed" velvet vest, blue cloth coat, white
and singlet, and grey stockings ; and he was about
5 ft. 6 in. in height.
On Saturday night police-constable Jelly heard a
noise as of some persons quarreling in the timber-
yard, and he called the Custom-house officers' atten-
tion to the circumstance. They went over the place
togQther, but could find no one ; and they reported
the incident to the policeman who came on duty at
midnight. Nothing of a suspicious nature was
noticed, however, on Sunday, and the murder re-
mained undiscovered until Monday afternoon, when
the workman came upon the body in the yard.
Access can be had to the yard from the quays and
from the street, but in either case it is necessary to
get over a high hoarding. It is supposed that the
noise the officer heard was caused bf the deceased
and other persons quarreling; that he got over the
hoarding in order to escape, and was followed and
murdered there. From the nature of the wound
death must have been instantaneous. Papers were
found in the murdered man's dress, which purport
to be those of a seaman just returned from a long
voyage.

Col. DICKSON asked the Secretary of State for War
whether it is intended to embody fresh regiments of militia

Mr. S. HERBERT replied that it was not intended to

ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRWEA;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.
" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct. London Medical Gazette.
" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrlicea and the
various forms of disease which resemole it re
accuratreatmenttely de-
of
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

THE ARMY.

Col. Bloomfield, for some time past commandant
of the troops in tho camp at Colchester, will, it is
stated, be pi omoted, on proceeding to his new ap-
pointment at Dublin, to the rank of Major-General.
Capt. Colis, of the Ist Royals, Instructor in Mus-
ketry to the 9th depot battalion, is to proceed to-
day to the Hythe School of Musketry, where ho
will in future be stationed. Capt. Swan, of the 54th,
will succeed the gallant officer as instructor to the
9th battalion.

The sth Royal Irish Lancers are under orders
to proceed from Newbridge to Aldershot next
month by the Himalaya troop-ship. It is ha-
lieved that the march to their future quarters
from Liverpool will occupy about 21 days. The
regiment during the past week has, by direction
of their gallant colonel, been engaged in acquiring
a knowledge of the duty of embarking and disem-
barking, according to regulations. The regiment
consists of about 650 sabres, and their horses are in
the finest condition, the regiment being reported by
the Inspector-General of Cavalry as fit for home or
foreign service.

About 70 recruits yesterday joined the head-
quarters of the Royal Artillery at Woolwich, nearly
the whole of whom passed the medical examination.
A similar number has been enrolled each day for
some days past ; and, although the home and fo-
reign stations and brigades have been considerably
augmented, the Artillery force at oolwich is
much beyond its usual numbers. The Ist brigade
of Garrison Artillery at Woolwich, Col. Evelegh
commanding, is about to be mounted for field duties,

ing and organisation of large numbers of the population of
the kingdom of Sardinia, was proposed by two members of
the Chambers, Signori Brofferio and Sineo, and the presi-
deiacy, with the consent of tho King, accepted by Garibaldi;
and whether, about the same time, a Royal Decree appoint-
ing General Garibaldi Inspector in Chief of the National
Guard of the Kingdom had been determined upon, and was
on the point of being signed by the King; and, further,
whether, under these circumstances, Sir James Hudson,
her Majesty's Ambassador at Turin, under instructions
from the Government at home, and in conjunction with the
French Ambassador, or otherwise, on the 2d day of January,
or on any- other occasion, protested to the King against
such measures which his Majesty was supposed, of his own
free will, to be about to adopt, stating, in the name of her
Majesty's Government, that the good offices of Great Britain,
in the present crisis of Italian affairs, would be withdrawn
if such proposed measures were persisted in ?
Lord J. RUSSELL, who was very inaudible in the re-
porters' gallery, was understood to say that from a private
letter he understood there was such an association as that
alluded. to, but that it was considered unconstitutional, not
being under the control of the king of the country. Sir
James Hudson had received no instructions from the Go-
vernment to make:any such statement as that stated.
OATH TAKEN BY RECRUITS.
Lord W. GRAHAM asked the Secretary of State for
War whether he had taken into consideration the oath
taken by recruits on attestation, with a view to an altera-
tion of the same ?
Mr. S. HERBERT said that the subject was under
consideration.

VESSEL WRECKED OFF ARRAN.—As the steams
Rose was proceeding up the Firth of Clyde on Friday, ofl
her voyage from Londonderry, a portion of the hulk of 0
vessel was observed lying near to the entrance to Lamlash
Lech. The captain of the Rose immediately caused hill
ship to run close to the wreck, which he found to be that
of a ♦essel apparently of American build. Her boats war,
gone, and it is therefore reasonably supposed that the crew
have safely reached the shore in them. The name of the
stranded ship could net be made out.—North British .Dastil

A full average supply of beasts was on offer in to-day's
market. Prime breeds realised Monday's currency, but
inferior beasts declined in value 2d per 81bs. Sheep, the
show of which was good, met a dull inquiry; Downs and
half-breds supported previous rates ; other breeds gave way
2d per 81bs. We have to report a dull sale fer lambs, at a
fall in value of 2d per 81bs. Owing to large supplies from
abroad, calves were very dull, and 4d to 6d per 81bs lower
than on Monday. Pigs were in moderate request, on former
terms, but milch cows were a dull inquiry.

HARBOURS OF REFUGE

The following is the report of the select commit-
tee appointed to inquire how far it may be practi-
cable to afford better shelter to our shipping upon
our coasts than is at present afforded, by the adop-
tion of some plan for the construction of break-
waters and harbours less costly and better adapted
for certain localities than the system of solid ma-
sonry hitherto in use, and whether any such plan
appears likely to be also serviceable for the improve-
ment of our national defence, and to report to the
house :
" The committee have met and considered the
subject-matter referred to them, and have examined
several witnesses in relation thereto, and various
designs of floating and other breakwaters have
been laid before them.

" The committee feel the importance of seeking
every means by which harbours and breakwaters
of a less costly construction than those at present in
course of formation could be placed on various parts
of the coast.

" They have taken much evidence on this sub-
ject, and have had their attention especially called
to floating breakwaters, of which several plans
have been submitted to them. Upon the advan-
tages to be derived from these constructions the evi-
dence is conflicting.
" The committee are not prepared to recommend
that the Government should undertake the task of
constructing breakwaters on these principles, bat
looking to the vast cost of harbours constructed
upon the systems hitherto in use, they are of
opinion that a moderate sum may be advantage-
ously expended by Government in testing any plans
which may offer a probability of important results
in great future saving of money, and in giving Fe'
tection to life and property in various localities.
" To carry this object into effect, the committee
recommend that a sum, not exceeding £lO,OOO, be
placed at the disposal of the Admiralty.
" The committee have received evidence on the
question of the deposit of silt in the large harbours
now under construction. Some witnesses have
stated that these harbours are gradually deteriora-
ting from the accumulation of silt. The hydro-
grapher of the Admiralty has, however, informed
the committee
and that at Devon, Portland, Plymouth,
Kingstown, recent soundings show that there
is no deposit. The slight silting of a few inches at
Holyhead Refuge Harbour may, it is stated, fairly
be attributed to the millions of tons of stone, fresh
from the quarry, that have been tipped into the sea
in the construction of the breakwater, and that this
cause of deposit will consequently cease when the
works are brought to a close.
" The committee further recommend that the at-
tention of the Admiralty and Board of Trade should
be invited to this important subject, to consider
whether any facilities can be given to public bodies
or to private companies who may desire, at their
own risk, to improve our harbours, or to give in-
creased protection to oar coasting trade.
" And the committee have directed the minutes
of evidence taken before them, together with an
appendix, to be laid before your lordships.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 25th have arrived.
The semi-official Correspondancia blames some of
the journals for making constant attacks on the
Government of Great Britain, which is " a friend
and ally." The Espana, however, insists that the
attacks are justieable, inasmuch as England has
inflicted a long series of wrongs on Spain, be-
ginning with " the robbery of Gibraltar" and
the defeat of Trafalgar, and ending with the
heinous offence recently committed by a Minister
in Parliament of " putting Spain on a level with
Portugal and Sweden." The Minister of the Inte-
rior had returned to Madrid. The cholera had
broken out with increased violence at Malaga, 600
persons having been attacked in one day, and 50
of them having died. The Correspondancia says
that a telegraphic despatch from London announces
that Lord Granville, President of the Council, was
about to visit the ports of Spain in his yacht, and
it says, " We are charmed at this; from what he
will see he will be able to tell his Government that
Spain does not need permission to become a Power
of the first order."

RUSSIA.

Next to the ravages of the locusts in the southern
peovinces and the destructive, fires that have oc-
curred in several of the towns Ana cities, the
domestic question nic,:a dismissed by the Russian
lownals, jy that of passports. It is treated with
considerable freedom, and the St. Petersburg papers
have published several private letters, describing
the systematic manner in which these documents
are converted into means of extorting money by the

local authorities, especially in the interior of Russia.
The Invalide boldly asserts that the rigid passport
system of the police is the direct cause of the
vagabondage that " infects" the provinces. The
fees exacted are so high that those who cannot pay
evade them, and after wards either bribe the village
authorities to forward a passport to them, or are
arrested as vagabonds, and swell the number of
criminals. The officials often take the bribes, and
keep back the papers in order to extort more. As
no one can receive a passport without paying, in
advance, all his share of the communal taxes that
will fall due during the whole time of his absence,
the sum is frequently a prohibition of any change
of place, and even the free peasants, proprietors,
and tradesmen are thus bound to the soil, unless
they evade the law, or make a private arrange-
ment with the police. Similar revelations of the
system are being made in Moscow as in St. Peters-
burg ; and the Invalids asserts that for every indi-
vidual case of oppression and extortion thus ex-
posed, there are thousands that never will be
brought to light.
