Brigadier Walpole completed the required
bridge, and crossed the Ganges by it into Rohil-
cund ; the Commander-in-Chief reviewed and in-
spected the brigade previous to its departure for
Bareilly, whither it was to march for the purpose
of clearing that city of the rebels under Khan
Bahadoor Khan.

Sir Colin Campbell himself did not intend en-
tering Rohilcund with the main body until he
received from Agra a siege train, to be escorted
down by her Majesty's 38th regiment.
The rebels who passed from Rohileund into
the Mozuffernuggur district on the 10th Jan.,
were beaten by Capt. Boisragon, and driven back
across the river.

The Calpee rebels are still in force, it is said,
under the leadership of Nana Sahib, and this
chief is threatening us in the direction of
Nagode.

If this be so, the gradual concentration of
columns from Jubbnlpore, Rewa, and Sehore will
soon put an end to his resistance.

An engagement took place between Captain
Montgomery, the superintendent of police at
Ahmednugger, and a gang of Bheels, in the vici-
nity of Chandore, on the road to Mulligaum.
Capt. Montgomery, three other officers, and 50
men, were wounded.

Canton is completely in our possession. On
the sth of January Commissioner Yeh, Teh Kwei,
the Governor of the province, and the Tartar
commander-in-chief, were made prisoners!. Yeh
was sent on board the Inflexible.

FRANCE.
PARIS, TUESDAY.

The editors of the principal Paris papers were
summoned yesterday to receive instructions rela-
tive to the publication of the trial of the prisoners.
They must conform to the system practised by the
legal journals, the reports for which are submitted
to the President of the Court previous to publica-
tion.
It is reported that General losquet expired
resigned,

13ailleul, ex-Archbishop of
R 1
Rouen, is named canon

The following despatches have been received
here :
" Berlin, 23(1.—We learn from Copenhagen that
the King of Denmark is labouring under ery-
sipelas. Monday's bulletin was as follows :
The erysipelas has somewhat extended since yes-
terday, but neither fever nor any other indisposi-
tion has supervened.",
" Rome, 20th.—Cardinal Savelli died yesterday.
Four other cardinals, Cardinal Tosti among the
number, are seriously ill. The pontifical eovern-
meet has authorised the project of the French
company for continuing the Frascati railway to the
frontier of Naples."
A letter from Carl,ruhe says
"At the time of the conclusion in 1857 of the
treaty between the Governments of France and
Baden respecting the construction of a stone bridge
over the Rhine, near Kehl, a certain number of
States of Southern Germany, including Austria,
denied, in the diet, the right of the Grand Duke
of Baden to enter into a convention with a foreign
power, which might eventually-endanger the ter-
ritorial security of Germany, and necessitate un-
expected and extraordinary military expenses on the
part of the Confederation. The envoy of Baden
maintained in the sitting of the diet of 15th Nov.
last the right of his sovereign to conclude treaties
which favoured the commerce and the interests of
his States ; but with respect to the bxpenditu e,
he would ask for further instruction from home
before entering into that subject. At a later sit-
ting, the envoy declared that the Government of
Baden undertook to discharge all the expenditure
which would be incurred by the construction of
the bridge. This announcement calmed the oppo-
sition of the i d
—et, which contented itself with
despatching several federal officers to construct
fortifications that would prevent any coup de main
on the part of a French force. The Baden Govern-
ment has now submitted to the Chambers here a
bill, in which it asks for leave to contract, abroad
or at home, a loan destined to continue the net-
work of railways, including the lines of Wadhul to
Constance and Durlach to Porzheim, and those
on the left bank of the Rhine ; and also to meet
the expenses of the bridge. No doubt exists that
the chambers will authorise this loan."

PIEDMONT.
We have mentione,l that the Piedmontese Ca-
binet had presented to the Chamber of Repre-
sentatives a bill to strengthen the existing laws
relative to persons implicated in conspiracy to

murder on political grounds. The bill, at the !
sarn, time, punishes the defence of political as-
-4.;sinaticn, whetherit be made directly or indi-
rectly by the reproduction of documents already
published. But the most important part of the
measure is that which constitutes judges of the
fact 200 electors of the town in which the Court
of Appeal is established, such 200 electors to be
designated by a commission composed of the mayor,
a municipal councillor, and a councillor dele-
gated by the intendant. These judges of the fact
ar., to be nominated for six mouths, and can-
not be reappoint -d for the six months following.
The jury charged to try offences of the kind re-
ferred to is to be selected from the 200. In the
report explaining the reasons for bringing in the
bill, the Cabinet, after showing that the cause of
justice and a regard for the public interest render
the measure necessary, dwells on the guarantees
which will be found in a commission composed of
magistrates who have been elected by the people ;
and it expresses the opinion that it will be safe to
4134nd0n to their impartiality and independence
the task of forming the list of 200 names. The
Ministers, at the conclusion of the document, re-
present that the object of the law is to give to the
Sardinian Government the means of efficaciously
fulfilling its international duties.

The Madrid journals of the 18th, like those of
some proceeding days, contain no political news of
interest. The strength of the garrison of Madrid
was about 14,000 men. It was said that the French
police on the frontier had discovered a Carlist plot.
The Congress had resumed its sittings, but nothing
of importance had taken place.

The latest accounts from Montenegro, received
at Vienna, state that the Turkish villages of Sevra
and Kernice, near the lake of Scutari, have recog
nised the authority of that principality, and have
been taken possession of by Senator Filipon with
20 men. It was thought that the insurrection
would spread over all Albania. The Vienna semi-
official journals deny that Austria has the intention
of occupying Montenegro in a military manner.

THE LATE DIVISION.-THE LIBERALS.

Some parties have represented the late defeat
of the Government as a sort of repetition of the
fortuitous coalition of sections in March last on
the China vote, but there is an essential difference
in many respects. Even in the first division
which took place a fortnight ago, on the introduc-
tion of the Alien Bill, we recorded the names of
a band of most influential members of the Liberal
party who supported Lord Palmerston on the
China question, but were forced to oppose him on
the new measure. Mr. Monckton Milnes, Mr.
Berkeley, Mr. J. C. Ewart, Mr. Bass, Mr. Kin-
naird, Mr. Scholefield, Sir John Shelley, Sir
Charles Napier, and about twenty others, were in
this position, and certainly no factious opposition
could be imputed to them. They had supported
Lord Palmerston as the most capable minister so
long as he followed a safe course, hut they would
not countenance him in debasing England before
the adventurer of the Tuileries. Even at eo eaily
a period in the Alien Bill proceeding was there
such a decided difference manifested between the
China coalition and the resistance which has for
the present dissolved Lord Palmerston'e ministry.
And, in the division which threw out the bill,
there was a still greater reinforcement of indepen-
dent Liberals who formerly supported Lord Pal-
merston against the China coalition. We find in
the hostile majority of the 19th, the names of the
following Liberals, generally representing importan t
constituencies, who supported the Premier by their
votes in March :—Sir J. Duke, Mr. Cowan, Mr.
B. Ingram, Captain Kiegsoote, Mr. E. C. Egerton,
Mr. Langton, M.P. for Bristol, Mr. Wrighton, and
others.

In addition to these, there were a number of
Liberals who abstained from supporting Govern-
ment on the late division, although, having voted
fat the introduction of the bill, they were probably
deterred by that ci cumstance from more active
opposition. Sir William Codrington, Sir George
Dashwood, the Hon. J. Elliot, Mr. Marjoribankr,
Mr. Mackinnon, Mr. Willcox, and nearly a dozen
more, are in this position.
We can perhaps trace, in this part of the divi
Rion, the influence of Lord Palmerston's precipitate
legislation for India, as we can have little doubt
that several Directors of the Company, *or persons
of Anglo-Indian experience, took a more decided
course against the Ministry on that account.. On
the whole, great forbearance seems to have been
exercised by the Liberal party in general towards
the Government, as the following lists will show : •

These' in addition to the 75 Liberals who voted
against the introduction of the bill, form a toler-
ably powerful band on whom we can rely for re-
sistance to Imperial tendeneies ; and the con-
stituencies which they generally represent greatly
cutweigh in importance and independence thosl
which are represented by that section of the Liberal
party which has been so egregiously misled on this
occasion. All, the members for London who are
allowed to sit in the house voted against the bill,
and all the members for the suburban constituen-
cies, except three, did the same. The important
consti:uency of Greenwich has ceased to be divided
on the subject. Bris'ol, Glasgow, Dublin, and
other large towns hive given both their members
to the opposition, in addition to those representa-
tives of large towns who opposed it from the begin-
ning ; and many of the more Liberal counties have
'added their members to the majority.—Morning
