SYRIA.

A letter from Beyrout (Syria), of the 26th ult.,
gives the details. of the outrage on the Archbishop
of Sour, which we have briefly mentioned by tele-
graph :—" Two days ago Mgr. Athanasius, the
archbishop, proclaimed the use of the Gregorian
calendar for the Greek Catholics of his diocese.
In the evening at -vespers, -while the prelate was
officiating, eight or ten individuals, sailors and
fishermen, rushed on him, dragged him from his
seat, stripped him of his pontifical robes, and after
driving him and all the priests from the church,
closed the door, and carried off the key. The arch-
bishop confined himself to addressing a few mild
words to his assailants, but what be said remained
quite unattended to; The local authorities instead of
interfering, referred the matter to the governor of
Beyrout. M. E. de 'Lesseps, the_ French consul-
general, and Mgr. Valergo, the patriarch and dele-
gate of the Holy See, demanded that a striking
satisfaction should be given to the archbishop, and
a public functionary has been sent to Sour to have
the culprits arrested and brought to Beyrout,

The Journal de Constantinople publishes a
decree of the Sultan, making the following
nominations, one or two of which hare been
already spoken of :--" Ali Pacha, at present
governor of Djeddah, is confirmed in that post;
Mahmoud Pacha, who had been named to the post
of Djeddah, is appointed governor of Kurdistan ;
Ali Kiamily Pacha, governor of Kurdistan, is
appointed governor of Damascus ; and Nedjib Bey
is named Caimacan of Allaia, near Aidin."

" Accounts from Alexandria," says the Pays,
" state that Captain Pullen, of the Cyclops, will be
replaced in his temporary functions of English
Commissioner at Djeddah by Mr. Septimus
Walne, the English Consul at Cairo. Captain
Pullen had been charged by the Admiralty
to make a hydrographical survey Of the Red
Sea, and he was engaged in that operation•
when the massacre at Djedclah took place.
Since that period his surveys have been sus-
pended, and it is to enable him to continue them
that he has been replaced. Abdallah Pacha, the
new Scheriff of Mecca, lately assembled the Ulemas
and the principal Mussulmans, and addressed them
in a very animated manner. He declared that
they were labouring under a serious error with
regard to the European Powers; Who, he said ,
wished to destroy neither the Mussulman religion
nor the tomb of the prophet. He assured them

that they bad no cause for uneasiness, as they
would never be disturbed in their religious belief,
and that any ono attempting to interfere with it
would be severely punished; but he added that

they must on their aide respect the Christians, any
aggression against whom would be energetically
repressed, and the authors of it brought to justice.

PRUSSIA.

A communication from Berlin says :—" Under
the preceding King, it was the custom for the
heir presumptive to the Crown to be present
at the sittings of the council of ministers, and
at the deliberations which take place at the different
Ministries, in order that he might be initiated in the
management of public affairs. In order to facilitate
this study, a particular functionary was attached to
the person of the Prince Royal, who studied with
him. As the education of the Prince Royal was
more particularly military, it was indispensable to
have recourse to this plan in order that he might be
instructed in administrative and political matters,
and it was thus that the present King and the
Prince Royal were initiated in public business. It
is now decided to attach a functionary of the kind
to Prince Frederick William, and the Regent has
selected a councillor of the Regency of Coblentz, a
man not of noble family, who formed part of the
circle of the Princess of Prussia."

to Lord Dalhousie, and other questions were dis-
cussed, he would not have spoken of him (Mr.
Sergeant Gaselee) as he had. He (the learned ser-
geant) had always endeavoured to do his duty
conscientiously, and he hated jobbery of every
kind. (Ilear, hear.)
After some discussion the motion was put and
carried,
Mr. CRAWSHAY saying it was not passed with a
view of curtailing the powers of the directors, but,
to increase them. The Company had lost the go-
vernment of India because there was not that free
intercommunication between proprietors and direc-
tors that there should have been.
Mr. CRAWSHAY again moved, as the last of his
resolutions, " That the committee, of by-laws be
requested to revise the by-laws in accordance with
the altered circumstances of the company."
Mr. Sergeant GASELEE suggested that the com-
mittee of 17-laws should be paid.
The motion was agreed to.
Some business was disposed of, when a vote of
thanks to the chairman terminated the proceedings,
which had occupied nearly four hours.

THIS DAY'S JFfA RXETS.

The supply of English wheat in to-day's market was
very moderate. For good and fine samples there was a fair
demand, at full prices ; but other kinds reeved off slowly,
on former terms. _

The amount of business doing in foreign wheat was
limited, nevertheless prices were supported, and importers
generally were firm in their demands.
. .

Barley, the show of which was seasonably large, moved
off heavily, at the late decline.
In malt very little was doing, but no further change took
place in prices.
We had a moderate sale for oats, at full quotations.
Beans, peas, and flour were a slow inquiry, at Monday's
currency.

TDIEVES AND RECEIVERS.—IMPORTANT MAGISTERIAL
REMARKS.—Thomas Lloyd, a boy about 13 years of age,
was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing an
iron mooring shackling bolt, weighing about 701b5., the
property of the Regent's Canal Dock Company.
It appeared that last night the prisoner broke into a car-
penter's shop in the dock and took out the iron bolt in-
tended for the mooring of a ship, and was dragging it
away when a man named Russell detained him. The pri-
soner said that he intended to sell the bolt to pay for a
night's lodging, or to purchase something to eat.
The prisoner impudently said that he did take the iron,
and intended to sell it to a marine store dealer in Ratcliff.
Mr. Yardley said he did not know whether the prisoner
was a pardoned thief, or had been in custody before ; but
he certainly was a very cool thief—a most impudent thief,
and had committed the robbery with great audacity. The
robberies of metal in that district were very extensive, and
a great portion of the time of the magistrates had been for
some time occupied in the investigation of charges against
persons for stealing lead and iron, and against those pests
of society, marine store dealers, for receiving the property.
Several marine store dealers had been summarily convicted,
and either sent to the treadmill for two or three months or
lined. He found by the papers that morning that a notorious
receiver, named Still, of Broad-street, Ratcliff, committed.
from that court, was convicted yesterday, and sentenced
to four years' penal servitude, for receiving lead stolen from
and the thief was convicted
Messrs. Charringtons' wharf,
at the same time. He hoped the conviction of Still would
produce a very wholesome and salutary effect. Nothing
could be more shocking than the insecurity of certain kinds
of property in that district, and the facility and easiness
with which it was disposed of at marine store shops. He
sentenced the prisoner to one month's imprisonment and
hard labour

Two lads, named Allen and Donovan, who wore detected
as they were entering a marine store shop, were charged
with stealing lead, which they threw at the feet of the con-
stable who took them into custody. They were old
offenders, and Mr. Yardley sentenced them to two months'
imprisonment, and hard labour.

HARBOUR OF REFUGE IN THE BRISTOL CHANNEL.----
The need of a suitable harbour of refuge for the ehippiag
frequenting the Bristol Cbannol, having been brought
under the notice if the Leisglature, has called forth aP'
plications from several localities. A breakwater in St•
Ive's Bay is recommended by the Cornish people, while
the Bristol Chamber of Commerce is in favour of A
harbour at Clovellv. The coasts of the Channel bace
been surveyed by Capt. Claxton, R.N. The inbabitantB
of Swansea have s,t forth the claims of the Mumbles to
a breakwater, which they state would render the splen.

LivEitrooL, Wednesday Atternoon.—At 12 o'clock
this day the clerk of the course was reluctantly tom-
pelled to announce the postponement of the Grand Na-
tional Steeplechase. A ltoough the racecourse on Tues-
day was in pretty good going order, albeit somewhat
slippery, yet the severity of the frost during the night
rendered the sport impracticable to-day. Still very little
snow fell, and now (at 2 o'clock) the day is bright and
sunny, but the wind 1, high, and in the shade the frost
is most intense. Twenty-five horses have arrived for
the steeplechase, and the postponement has created
much disappointment.

From Irelafid, France, and from all parts of England,
vhotors gave arrival in the expectation of witnessing the
" Derby" of steeplechases. Mr. Topham, the clerk Of
the course, will be the chief sufferer by the unpropitious
wea,her, for he supplies the money to be run for, and he
has now no chance of a reimbursement.

It is doubuul wheth,r the Steeplechase will take
place at ail this week. Only two races in addition to
the Gra, d National were contained on the card, the
uncertainty which existed relative to the Meeting taking
place having prevented many gentlemen from sending
their horses.

Subj .fined is a list of the horses which have arrived at
Liverpool, cr rather at Aintree, to run for the Steeple-
chase : Xanthus, Ton, Moody, Escape, Clandiuri,
Little Charley, Magnet gelding, Ab-del-Kader, Morgan
Ilattl.r, Jean .iu Quesne, Joe Graham, Treachery,
Lough Ba an, Knight of the Shire, Black Swan, Black

The race is to take place at mid-day on the 27th inst.,
over Vie nival course, from Putney-bridge to Barker's-
rails, Mortlake, on nearly the tip of the tide. Both
crews are composed of very Eno powerful men, averaging
12 stone each, the Cantabs being at present a trifle
heavier than their opponents, notwithstanding whielPit
however, the Oxonians, said by competent judges to
be the best crew seen for years past, are the favourites.

LYCEUM THEATRE.

A new farce, entitled " Double Dummy," was pro-
duced here last night with complete success. The piece
belongs to a class which depends for its effects rather on
broad situations and demonstrative action than novelty
of plot or dovetailing of incident, and in which the
actors have at least as large a share as the author in
eliciting the mirth of their audience. "Double Dummy"
rests its interest in the jealous squabbles of Mr. Wel-
lington Priddle Mr. J. L. Toole) and Mrs. Priddle
(Mrs. A. Mellon, late Miss Woolgar). The husband, a
hairdresser and perfumer, and the wife, a milliner and
dressmaker, have one shop, each half of which if, appro-
priated to their respective occupations. The wife's
absence on business excites the husband's jealousy, and
in order to follow her ho leaves one of her own work-
women in charge of the shop, transformed into an apparent
"dummy" by the aid of a wig mid mantle. No sooner does
the husband go out than an inebriated medical student
enters in the eudea7our to escape from the police, and
the wife returning at the moment, is concealed behind
one of her dress dummies. The jealous hairdresser,
having suspicion of the medical student, returns disguised
as a German, one of his own customers, arid, learning
that the medical student is biding, conceals himself
in order to watch. Of course it is speedily discovered
that there are no real causes for jealousy on either side ;
and al being amicably arranged the curtain falls to an
appropriate "tag." Mr. Toole, as usual, spared no
efforts to make the most of his part, and his unflagging
vivacity and grotesque humour were powerful aids to
success. He was well seconded by Mrs. Mellon as the
pert affected dressmaker; and their united efforts brought
the curtain down amid unmixed applause. Mr. Toole,
in announcing the Wee fir repetition every evening,
stated it to be the joint production of Messrs. Harring-
ton and Yates.
