Pahce' Delhi, Oct. 26, 1856.
C. has brought us a halt-cas'e girl, of about nine
years Of age, who was sent in to him by one of the
uawabs ne-ir here. A h ,rseinan took her away
from Jhuitsi, and brought her to Delhi, mill h 3
so'd her to this nawab. She is the only su• %fixing
child of Quartermaster Serjeant Newton. lie, h s
wile, and four children, were Murdered at Jhansi,
and this one lines to .tell the tale. Poor child ! she
was dressed in red and go'd, her head was .hawed,
and she looked just like a native. She cried very
bitterly fur two days, but my ayah has been atisist-
ing me in winning her round. I cannot yet get
her to speak to me; she only nods her head, but
she has talked once or twice to the ayah.
I am going to send her to the Lawrence Asylum
As a soldier's orphan they are bound to provide for
her, or rather to receive her, for she will have, a
small pension ; and Mrs. Hope Grant has kindly
promised to take her to Utnballa and then to the
hills.

Oh, dear E., I wish you in England would ad-
vocate the Lawrence Military Asylum cause. The
institution will now be more than ever required.
Government ought to come forward and keep it
from falling, which it will do unlesis permanent aid
is granted to it. Try and stir Mrs. H. (a sister of
Sir H. Lawrence) to this. England ought to grant
any request made by a sister of Sir Henry and Sir
John Lawrence.

MINISTERIAL REPORT AND DECREE
FOR TILE SUPPRESSION OF TWO
JOURNALS.

REPORT TO THE EMPEROR.

The Moniteur of yesterday publishers various ad-
dresses to the Emperor, congratulating him on his
escape. M. Mang, the Minister of the Interior,
presented the following report :
" Sire.—When an attempt like that of the 14th
suddenly startles the word and shows to the most
incredulous what savage anarchy would like to im-
pose itself on France by assassination, every one
expects that the Government will come to a serious
decision to prevent a recurrence of such danger.
" Without being oarried along by public indigna-
tion it is necessary to seek, with firm and calm, mo-
deration, energetic remedies adapted to the gravity
of the evil, to consider well the danger and to be
ready to act.
"The flagrant danger, Sire, is to he found iu that
sect of assassins who recruit in broad daylight at a
few leagues from our frontiers, and send in a few
hours into the very heart of Paris their hired assas-
sins and instruments of destruction.

" What encourages them—what especially en-
courages those who pay them and direct them, is
the mad hope which they entertain that the insur
rection which will ensue when they have broken the
powerful arm which has already put it down, will
land over to them Paris, France and a portion of
Europe. This hope, which has no foundation in pre-
sence of a resolute Government, of a devoted arua3 ,
of a satisfied people, is only kept up on one hand
by the action of demagogues who never cease to
conspire and spread agitation ; and, on the other
hand, by the imprudent opposition of those frag-
ments of ancient parties who, with equal folly, ex-
pect an impossible resurrection from anarchy.
"To meet this emergency various measures will
be submitted to your Majesty. There is one, how-
ever, which our existing laws admit at (Nice, viz.,
not to tolerate that certain journals in the hands of
a few but indefatigable agitators shall continue to be
the daily exponents of the doings of demagogu-s—
-almost the official organs of their direct or indirect
at' ewpts at disturbance. Nor mu,t, on the other
hand, attacks be allowed to be made, ho vever well
disguised, incessantly against the new dynasty :Ind
the constitution which the country has chosen for
itself, showing an obstinate hope that pretensions
which have fallen long since into utter oblivion
may be posibly and proximately realised.
"Among the French newspapers it is very easy to
discern which are those whose object, more cr less
disguised, is to prepare the way, insomuch as they
can, for other hopes than the duration of the
Empire.

"As long as free England feared for the family
which now reigns the attacks and the intrigues
of the friends of a Pretender, that liberty of
which she is so proud gave way to most rigorous
measure?. Your Government, Sire, is at the pre-
sent moment what that of England was till a long
time after William 111., in an evident position of
legitimate defence ; the attempt of the 14th Jan.
only proves it too well. We should be wanting to
our duty if we did not at once have recourse, in
the interest of society, to those weapons which the
actual legislation places at our disposal, and I ask
your Majesty to decree at once the severe applica-.
tion of the law of 1852 on the press.
"A review which has scarcely a two years' exis-
tence as a political organ, on the very morrow of
the day upon which I allowed its publication for-
got all the formal promises made by its editors,
and opened its columns to the most detestibla in-
spirations of the demagogues. The Revue de Paris
now seeks to make itself the centre of a sort of
ramified agitation, the trades of which the Govern-
ment has discovered in various departments ; it,
moreover, adheres to its work of propagandism,
and its last number is replete with the glorification
of the reminiscences and hopes of the Republican
party. More than once warned, and its publication
suspended, during the last two years, it must now
be suppressed. The decree of the 17th Feb., 1852,
allows this suppression, and I propose it to your
Majesty.
_

Another newspaper which, under very different
colours, has never ceased since the restoration of
the Empire to wage a hidden but constant war
against the new institutions sanctioned by the na-
tional will—the Spectateur—(formerly called the
Assemblee Nationale) persisting in its opposition,
takes the opportunity, while expressing its horror
at the attempt of the 14th Jan., to advocate the
principles which it upholds ; and without regard to
history, ignoring the assassination of Henry 111.,
Henry IV., and of the Duc de Berry, it adds
" 'Formerly those detestable passions found a I
check in that salutary law of the monarchy
which, placing the principle of heradirary right
above all changes and all ambitions, rendered those
crimes useless, and in some measure took away all
pretext for their commission.'
66 This is forgetting too much that the inherit-
ance of the Crown in the Imperial family is the
fundamental principle inscribed by eight millions
of votes in our Constitution.
" This paper, which has already received five
warnings, and has been twice suspended, ought, I
think, also to be suppressed:

" These measures of severity, Sire, are legitimate.
The Government of a great nation must not allow
itself to be noiselessly undermined by skilful pens
no more than to be attacked openly by the savage
bruta'ities of conspiracies.
"The decree which I propose to you is only a just
punishment on those upon whom it falls ; it will,
moreover, be a warning t.e others.
" I am, Sire, with profound respect, your Ma-
jesty's very faithful and very obedient servant and
subject, " BILL AULT, Minister,
Secretary of State in the Department
of the Interior."
A decree in the Moniteur follows the above re-
port. After enumerating the offensive articles in
the two above-named publications, it says :
"Art. 1. The Revue de Paris and the newspaper
Le Spectateur (formerly the .Assemblee Nationale),
are and remain suppressed.
" Art. 2. Our Minister Secretary of State in the
department of the Interior is charged with the
execution of the present decree, which is to be in-
serted in the Bulletin des Lois.
"Done at t ie Palace of the Tuileries, Jan. 18.
" NAPOLEON."

GALE AT LIVERPOOL.—LIVERPOOL, 'Wednesday.—
Throughout last night and during t;-day a very severs
gale has been blowing over the town and along the coast.
Up to this afternoon the casualties r,,ported are of no
moment; but fears are entertained that the next 24 hours
will prance the record" of many disasters.
TILE PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris
is about 1 per mille discount, and the short exchange
on London is 25.15 per 1/. sterling. On clinparing
these rates with the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10P.
per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about 1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Penis.
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 415 per
mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.34. per
1/. sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is
therefore about 1i per cent. dearer in London than in
Hamburg. The course of exchange at New York on
London for bills at 60 days' sight is 109 to 1094 per
cent. At the present rate of discount here
there is no
profit on the transmission of gold from this country to
the United States, and the profit is very small on
receiving it from the other side.
