LONDON, TUESDAY, JUNE 3, 1856.

General PIERCE has apparently taken up the
rile lately filled by take AUTOCRAT. The Washing-
ton Government is now the great aggressor, pro-
fessing principles dangerous to the peace and
tranquillity of the world, and endeavouring to
carry out its own views by bullying all who refuse
to recognise its untenable propositions as the esta-
blished law of nations. We do not for a moment
suppose that Messrs. PIERCE, MARCY, and COSII-
ING intend to drive matters to extremities, or to
involve their cruutry in war with Great Britain.
Their chief aim is to gain notoriety, and thereby
obtain sundry doubtful votes, which may turn

the scale at the approaching election. But men
who enter on such a game very frequently exceed
the limits they have prescribed themselves, and
find themselves unable to allay the storm
they have excited. The late CZAR had no
notion that he would have involved his country
in war with France and England by his vigorous
demonstrations against Turkey. He thought that
he could, at any moment, retrace his footsteps,
and retire with honour and profit from the con-
test, which he had wilfully and wantonly pro-
voked. But, notwithstanding the Germanic in-
fluence exercised *in his favour, he speedily dis-
covered the fatal mistake into which he had been
betrayed, and had abundant cause to deplore the
pernicious error.

General PIERCE may also discover his mistake
when too late to repair it. He also strives to
carry everything with the high-hand, and to dis-
card every principle of justice and moderation.
But in selecting Great Britain as the object on
which to try his daring experiments, he has, to use
the vulgar, but expressive aphorism, " caught the
wrong sow by the ear." Although bluster is not by
any means in accordance with our practice or wishes,
we know how to defend our own rights, and as
General
PIERCE has no Coburg cousins, the dele-
terious influences that operated so prejudicially to
England in th© Eastern difficulty will scarcely be
exercised in his favour.

There are now three points in dispute, any one
of which may lead to future disturbance. On
the "Central American question," as it is termed,
although our rights are clear a; light, we have
repatedly offered to abide by the arbitration of
any disinterested Power. We were even willing
to permit the Cabinet of Washington to name the
umpire, and to hind ourselves to submit to the
award. Bat that will not suit the quasi pugna-
cious candidate for Presidential houours. Ho
has announced his interpretation and shrinks froth
the unprejudiced judgment which ho well knows
must be unfavourable to his extravagant preten-
sions. No man can be judge of his own cause
when bona fide differences occur On a matter
of right and justice. A third party must
decide the dispute, and n• one that felt that
his case was well founded would refuse to
accept the verdict of an impartial tribunal. The
attitude assumed by the United States at once
places it in a false position, and proves beyond
the possibility of doubt that it is aware of the
weakness of the cause which it is attempting to
establish by such unjustifiable means.
The Enlistment question is equally clear. We
pointed out the dangerous consequences that
might probably follow the attempt to raise the

Foreign Legion. But although we condemned
the objects of the British Cabinet, we are bound
to say, as a matter of strict justice, that they gave
no reasonable ground of complaint to the Ameri-
can Government. Although the proceedings
which they authorised were perfectly justifiable,
the moment that an objection- was raised they
ordered their discontinuance, and made an ample,
and what to any reasonable parties would be con-
sidered a satisfactory, apology for any uninten-
tional violation of the laws of the United States.
And so it was deemed in the first instance, until
the electioneering tactics of Gen. PIERCE prompted
a different course. Now we are told that Mr.
CRAMPTON, whose conduct has been perfectly un-
impeachable, is to be summarily expelled the
' Stater. Of course Mr. DALLAS will, notwith-
standing the high respect entertained for him
personally, be subjected to similar treatment.
War may not necessarily follow these stringent
measures, but existing difficulties will be seriously
enhanced, and matters will assume a very inau-

!:pi. ious and ominous appearance.
The third point of difference—the official re-
cognition of the buccaneer WALKER and his pira-
tical government—is manifestly a flinging down
of the gauntlet on the part of General PIERCE,
under circumstances that will render it difficult,
if not impossible, to enable us to avoid accepting
the challenge. It is what in duelling parlance
was termed--" putting the quarrel" on the
other side compelling the adversaries to
become complainants. The tone of reason-
ing by which it has been supported is so
_utterly untenable, the proceeding in every
respect so unjustifiable, that it can only be
intended to compel England to take the initia-
tive. We trust, however, as W 3 have already
said, to the good sense of our transatlantic rela-
tives ; and as we shall do nothing recklessly to
aggravate the dispute, we hope and believe that
that which may now be regarded as " a pretty
quarrel" as it stands will be brought to an ami-
e:tble and honourable termination, and that the
only sufferers will be those who, for their
own nefarious purposes, have attempted to create
discord and hostility between peoples who ought to
be friends and allies, not only from the relation-
ship existing between them, but also from the
community of interests and the liberal sentiments
which they alike profess.

The vast importance to this country of a rapid
'2xamunicatioa with India, both in a commercial
and an imperial point of view, has been so often
insisted on in these columns, that our readers I
will be prepared to listen with impartiality, if not
with favour, to the gigantic scheme we are about
to lay before them. Already, as they are aware,
a, great trunk line is in course of development in
that colony, with the certainty of ultimate com-
pletion, and-to the Managing Director of the E ast
Indian Railway Company it is the public are in-
debted for the scheme in question. This gantle-
inan—Mr. R. INIA.cooNALD SrEPuzNsoN—having'
long devoted his anxious attention to an accele-
rated communication with the East, was led, in
1840, by the iiIIeCOSS of the Peninsular and
Oriental Company, to believe that the time was
ripe for a yet more ex`oncled project,—viz., to
girdle the world with an iron chain, to connect
Europe and Asia from their furthest extremities
by one colossal railway. It is, however, to a
pertiou only of this vast scheme we have to direct
attention, which is to connect so much of the two
continents as shall enable a locomotive to travel
from Calcutta with but two breaks, one at the
Straits, and the other at the Dardanolles.
At the present moment the European portion
of the proposed route is almost co nplete ; from
°dais or Ostend to Pesth, the line of railway is
unbroken. Between Pasth and Belgrade, a line
is in process of construction, and tenders have
been sanctioned by the Sultan for a line between
the latter place and Constantinople. So far no
great difficulties have been met with—no doubt
existing that a railway from Belgrade to Constan-
tinople may be constructed, if required. The
pinch of the scheme now begins. From Constan-
tinople to the head of the Persian Gulf is a dis-
tance of thirteen hundred miles. What have the
engineers to report of this portion-of the line ?
No levels have been taken, no surveys made, no pre-
cise information collected of any description. On
the other hand, there is a practicable read--abun-
dant labour, and thd means of commencing the
Iline at many points simultaneously. From Sou-
-1
0 taxi the rout walked over but not surveyed, would
be to Is, Nikmid, or Izmid. Thence the line
would, probably, we are told, strike southward,
by the valley of the Sakariah river to Eskishehr,
keeping to the south of Sevrehissar and Balahissar
by Chunder, to the south of Lake Touz, by Iskil
and Akserai, Soanli, and Kala Hissar to Malatich.
Then emerging from the mountain pass of
f Ecz Oglou, it would strike the head of the
J Euphrates. From thence to Mesko the
country is one uninterrupted level plain. Thence,
passing to the west of the Singar Hills, or to the
west of Lekrit, Aslaik and Bagdad, it would cross

the canals which connect the Tigris and Eu-
phrates, and, finally, passing Kornalt at the con-
fluence of these giant streams, would terminate at
the Persian Gulf. Here the first section of the
line ends ; and at this stage the direct communi-
cation with England may be said to be established.
No longer would we have to navigate half the
world and reach an island not five thousand miles
off by a voyage of sixteen thousand miles—nor
even to traverse two sides of a triangle in order by
the Red Sea to escape the still more devious
course.

An immense break in the great- chain of com-
munication, however, still remains. There is
still a sea-voyage of 1,600 miles to the head of
the Persian Gulf, involving transshipment and
waste of time. Mr. STEPHENSON will - have none
of it. His motto is—Railway all through, if
possible. To tunnel through Kars, Laristan, and
Beloochistan, the most mountainous and rugged
of Asiatic provinces, is out of the question. The
expenditure would be frightful and unremunera-
tive. Beloochistan has, however, a coast line
said to be comparatively free from these difficul-
ties, which line may be used and held, every por-
tion being accessible from the sea. Thus, it will-
be seen, to establish the direct communication be-
tween India and England proposed, re-
quires tho completion of a lino of 500
miles from Belgrade to Constantinople, and
another of
1,300 miles, from Constantinople
to ICDraa• The former running through a
civilised ant improving country ; and the latter,
half through rich countries and half through the
poor but fertile Valley of a
mighty river, with the
ocean
at each end and an easy communication
with the
Mediterranean in the middle, with la-
bour procurable at all four termini, and carrying
its own men,materials, and iron. It is asked—
Is this impossible ? The line from Calcutta to
Agra is longer. The line of the Great Pacific
will pass through a more difficult and less baba_
bited country. The linos of Western America are
almost as far from the supply of lab)ur ; and the
lines of Germany aro far less accessible from the
ocean. Admitting, however, the feasibility of the
scheme in other respects, the political obstacles
remain to be taken into account, The route tral

verses four independent sovereignties, and will
benefit England. Will Austria and France unite
for the advantage of England ? Will Russia
endure to see India placad finally beyond her
grasp ? Will Turkey bear to have her dominions
traversed at will by the heretic and the Frank ?
To these questions it is answered —But one
Power has any interests permanently hostile
to the railway, to wit, Russia. One more
is doubtful. France may fear for the prosperity
of Marseilles, It is far, however, from clear,
that Marseilles would lose. She would gain a
direct route to Bagdad, Constantinople, and the
Persian Gulf—a trade worth tenfold what the
present carrying trade can be. Or failing this,
Boulogne and Calais would become what Mar-
seilles essays to be. Important inducements are,
however, forthcoming, to which we have not
space to allude, but which are likely to withdraw
opposition. To Austria the railway could only
bring profit, and to Turkey it would prove the
means of preservation. Once constructed, and
England, France, and Austria would be able to
concentrate their artillery in defence of Constanti-
nople within its walls in three days, while from
the other end of the line our Indian armies would
be rapidly available. When the first locomotive
from Calcutta reaches Calais the freedom of
Europe from the Cossacks will have been secured.
France, Austria, Eog'and and Turkey agreed,
Russian opposition w,uld be of no avail.
The reader is now enabled to form sense idea,
however imperfect, of the magnitude and impor-
tance of " the National Highway," and will be
disposed to concede that, if practicable, the scheme
cannot be practically developed too soon.

WRECK OF A VEgSEL, WITH GREAT Loss OF LIFE.—
SINGAPORE, April 21. —The Reseluzao (Portmrnese ship),
Fernando; from Macao to Ravannab, with 350 Chinese
passengers, sprang a leak on 11th Feb., which subse-
quently increased to 34 inches per hour, and on the 18th,
the hold being full of water, she WA9 put do shore in the
Bay of St. James's, and al)aldoned, the crew, &c., tak-
ing to the boats ; master, 10 men, and about 300 Chinese
saved ; the rest drowned by the upsetting of the boats.
OUR TRADE WITH RIISSIA..—The screw steamer North
Star, Capt. Marshall, arrived on Saturday at Hull, being
the first vessel from St. Petersburg, as also the first to
arrive out, since the war. Her appearance at Crunsta It
was welcomed by many hundreds of epectatora, who
were ready to fraternise at once, and traffic with their
late enemies.

THE FAIRFIELD CANDLE WORKS.—Yesterday, at
Garraway's Coffee-house, Change-alley, Messrs. Ellis
and Son offered to public auction the British Sperm
Candle Company's works, Fairfield-road, Buw, with the
plant, constructed within the las; three years, the uten-
sils in trade, and the good will of the undertaking, es-
tablished at a cost of nearly 80,0001., the dissolution of
the company having taken place in consequence of pos-
sessing an inadeqoa,te capital. Held for an unexpired
term of 8G years at a ground rent of 60/. One offer
only of 10,000/. Wa3 made for the property, when the
auctioneer stated that an offer had been previously
made to the directors of 50,000/. ; and if any sale took
place it must be at an advance on that sum. No fur-
ther offer, however, was made.

THE RE3fAINS OF SIR JOHN FRANKLIN.—A box has
been received at the office of the American European
Express Company, New York, which contains a portion
(perhaps all) of the relics of the unfortunate expedition
of Sir John Franklin ;—Oae piece snow shoe, marked
Mr. Stanley (the name is cut into the wood with a pen-
knife) ; one piece of cane, apparently bamboo ; one piece
of wood, part of a boat with copper binding ; one piece
of wood, part of a boat, with the word " Erebus " cut
into it ; two pieces bunting ; one piece cordage ; one
pieca leather, the inside of a backgammon board ; one
piece metal, the graduated part of a barometer ; one
piece ivory, part of a mathematical parallel ruler ; one
piece ivory, apparently part, of a mathematical instru-
ment. This box via,s received from the Hudson's Bay
House, Lachine, to be far,varded to the Hudson's Bay
House, in London.

GOVERNESSES' BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION.—Last even-
ing the anniversary festival of this institution took place
at the London Tavern, under the presidency of the Earl
of Harrowby, who expatiated with much feeling upon its
objects, and the advantages which it offered. He was
glad to find that the institution was doing so well, as ap-
peared from the last annual report, and that the conduc-
tors of it were laying by funds, instead of labouring
under th© too common dizadvantage of an expenditure
in excess of income. Thi4 institution had been managed
with a rare mixture of prudence, sympathy, and kind-
ness. The report showed tl,at the number of governesses
at present receiving the benefits of the institution was
3,013 ; anal that the amount given last year, in 463
grants, was 1,1551. 7s. 2d. ; making the total sum so
applied, 10.4211. 10s. 10J. The receipts amounted to
10,2601, 45., and the expenditure to 9.7791. is. 3d.,
leaving a balance in hand of 481/. 2s. 41 The list of
subscriptions now read amounted to nearly 1,7001.
FARRINGDON-STREET EXTENSION TO CLEEKENWELL.—
Yesterday Messrs. Pollen and Son, by directions of the
City -Irn;:r.ivement Commissioners, put up to a-lotion
se% eral houses, situated in Petee-street and Tuturnill-
str,;et, Clerkenwell, being the last sale bat one that will
take place, which are to he cleared away for the purpose
of carryin4 into effect the formation of the now street
from Farringd in-street to Coppice-row. During the last
few weeks the whole of the vaults, on either side of the
new thoroughfare, have been built, adjoining the sites of
the houses intended to be built, and on the lines of the
various new streets, abutting from the central line,
va,ul.s have also been constructed on either side of them.
Tile level of the direct line of street from Farringdon-
street to Coppice row, from some cause or other, has
not been completed, though it has been a long time in
operation. Along a short distance a few gas-pipes have
been laid down, but for some clays past no progress has

THE PRECIOUS PEACE,

itEa MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

The Trovatore was performed at this theatre last night,
the cast of which contained a series of interesting novel-
ties—namely, Madame Albertini as Leonora, Alboni as
the Gipsy Mother, Baucarde as Maurico, and Beneven-
tano as the Conte di Luna.

The debut of Madame Albertini was unequivocally
successful. This lady, formerly a Miss Aitcheson, has
been singing in Italy with unbounded eclat, and her
triumphs there are likely to be repeated here. Her
voice is a pure soprano, her style large and expressive,
her intonation unwavering, and her acting energetic and
appropriate. Madame Albertini more than realised the
expectation which previous reports had inculcated as to
her excellence in Verdi's operas. Her delivery of the
opening air at once demonstrated her merit ; and she
sever lost the hold which she thus attained at the very
outset of the evening. Her success was, as we have
stated above, unequivocal, and the recalls she experi-
enced were the results of a very conclusive and universal
admiration.

The part of the Gipsy has been one of the most popu-
lar of the assumptions of Alboni in Paris. The music-
lies exactly within her voice ; and this being the case,
we may be sore it was rendered with great beauty and
artistic effect. The scene in the second act in which she
relates her story of wrong and suffering was given by
her with much more force and dramatic purpose than
might have been looked for. Madame Alboni, in a word,
evinced the utmost discrimination in the general em-
bodiment of the being who only lives to avenge an
act of cruelty and wickedness. The singing, as
we have already intimated, left nothing to be desired.
