THE SI'UTE OF DELHI.

ST. JAMES'S PALACE.

(From the Times)
There are two parties to all pomps, ceremonials,
and State exhibitions—those that are seen and
those that see. The latter party, we believe, takes
as warm an interest in these scenes as ever. The
world of spectators still loves ceremonial dearly,
and keeps the sacred flame alive. To this day
nine-tenths of the English public will willingly
undergo a kind of martyrdom in the process. There
are no inconveniences and fatigne3 too great for
them ; hours and hours will they wait in slow ex-
pectation ; they will stand eountinf, the minutes
till their legs almost give way, all to' see a pageant
of some 20 minutes. But, while the outside party
keeps up its full interest in the scene, the inside
party is rather losing it. Those who form the
spectacle care a good deal less about it than the
spectators. Why should they ? "It is only our
noble selves that are exhibiting, with whom we
are tolerably familiar. You and lof the same set
are very poor heroes to each other. We see or may
see each other most days. We see nothing parti-
cularly wonderful in each other. We are a very
poor ceremonial, then, to each other." Such is the
cold reasoning of modern times. How different
from the glowing atmosphere of a golden ceremo-
nial in Froissart, where majestic heralds precede
rows of prim knights with pointed shoon, who step
daintily before rows of demure, white-robed, au-
burn-haired damsels, who precede awful crowned

personages, walking solemnly beneath canopie3 of
cloth of gold, supported by officers of State, and
shaded by pennons and insignia ! Are they in-
diffZvent to the scene and to their own position in
it—those prim knights, those auburn-haired
maidens, and those august personages in crowns ?
What set ene enjoyment, what balmy satisfaction is
expressed in their looks—what serious sympathy
with the pageant and appreciation of its deep
reality ! What a ceremonial elysium are they in '?
How sadly have the present elements of spectacles
degenerated and cooled down ! These occasions
have actually now come to be considered rather as
bores ; they are hurried, curtailed, squeezed,
abridged, jammed up into corners, hemmed in at
the sides, boxed in all round, boarded over, roofed
in ; they are twisted about and split into sections
to suit local angularities ; and, finally, they are
got over as soon as possible, and almost before the
lucky spectator has got his glimpse of the scene
through a crack in the timber.
The marriage of the Princess Royal is to •be
celebrated in the Chapel Royal. The precedent-of
a century is in favour of this, but such a precedent
is more honoured in the breach than in the 'ob-

servance. It was ineeed always protested against.

LONDON, THURSDAY, DEC. 31, 1857.

The year now rapidly drawing to a cenclusion has
been, in many respects, one of the most remarkable
and important of those recorded in our national his-
tory. We have heen sorely tried, and passed trium-
phantly through a very formidable ordeal. No
foreign war has ever pressed so heavily on our re-
sources as the intestine commotions produced by
the Indian Mutiny and the Monetary convulsion.
Our brethren, and what is far worse, our sisters,
and their children, have been butchered, under
circumstances of the most horrible atrocity. And
that not by an enemy, but by miscreants whom
we had pampered until their insolence got beyond
all bounds, and they turned the arms with which
we had provided them, and the discipline we had
taught the n, not only against the officers whom
they were bound to obey, and from whom they
bad received nothing but kindness, but against
the entire English race, who had proved such
liberal paymasters and generous protectors. There
was an organised determination to purloin one of
the brightest gems from the British Diadem ; and
that by means so diabolical, that the public jour-
nals have been unable to detail the heartrending
particulars.

Humanly speaking, it was astonishing that the
deeply laid scheme, the cunning plot did not suc-
ceed better. It was proved beyond the possibility
of doubt, that the entire army of Bengal was cor-
rupted to the very core, that 70,000 armed and
disciplined troops had conspired to produce a ge•
neral massacre of Europeans, concealing their
sanguinary designs by unparalleled duplicity and
treachery. It was, indeed, strange that a plot of
which so many thousands must necessarily have
boco cognisant should have been s) strictly c)n-
cei,led that not the slighte=t hint had 00Z id out,
nor was there the most remote doubt entertained
as to the loyalty and devotion of the double•dyed
traitors and murderers who had
prepared their
diabolical plans with

►er of Coininbice is not only to repress all over-
speculation, but to compel all traders to keep not
only within, bu, very tar within, their real means,
which, considering that the capital at the commend
of Prussian commerce is rather scanty, is by no
means favourable to the rapid development of com-

THE DANUBE.

The 7‘..ord of Brussels contains the following rela-
tive to the question of the Danube, but it must not
be forgo•ten that the journal just named never to=es
an opportuni,y of running down the Austrian Go-
vernment
"The Commission of the States on the Banks of
the Danube assembled at Vienna under the presi-
dency of the Austrian delegate, M. de Blumfeld,
and decided on the regulations which it had been
charged to draw up. These nego-iaions were
conducted wan great tact, and to the predominant
advantage of Austria, and alt the stipulations
were worded in a souse favourable to Austrian
monopoly. The Servian commissioner proposed
that it should be stipulated that the companies
established ou the territory of one of the States
could not prevent the foundation of (idler compa•
nies by the neightouring States, or in other words
that the right of the former should hot ex-
tend over all the course of the i iver to the exclusion
of i.cs neighbours. This c ausa was intended as a
check to Austria, which was opposed to the forma-
tion of French, English, Russian, or indeed any
companies except her own. The proposition was
strongly objected to by the president, and a very
stormy discussion folio wed. The Servian com-
missioner refused to take part in the labours of the
commission, and for mally protested against its €l,-
cisions, and his example was followed by his col-
leagues of Moldavia and Wallachia. Turkey hesi-
tated for some time, but at length yielded, and the
ascendancy of Austria once more prevailed. Tee
convention was ratified by the German States and
by Turkey, bu t the three commisaionersot the States
of the Danube did i ot sign the definitive document.
This arraugement, therefore, acco.d.ng to the
spirit of tine treaty V Paris, is radically defective,
and ought to regarded as null and void. Alter
these incidents, explanations were exchanged be-
tween the different cabinets. France, it is said,
energetically protested against the validi y of the
docum, nt signed at Vie,na. Count de B-uol, iu
a note of the 7th Dec., is said to have claimed fur
the Sta. es on the banks of the Danube the exclusive
right of regulating the navigation of the upper
part of the river, and pointed out the &stifle ion
which he made at the Congress of Paris between
the Danube at its mouth and the upper part of
the river. He besides stated that the European
Congress had nothing to do with the question, and
that the document which had been signed would
only he presented to the Conference a• Paris as a
simple no t ific dine. To these s trange pre elisions the
French cabinet is s rid io have replied by a circular

THE DANUBE.

The Nora of Brussels contains the following rela-
tive to the question of the Danube, but it must not
be forgotten that the journal just named never loses
an opportunity of running down the Austrian Go-
vernment :
" The Commission of the States on the Banks of
the Danube assembled at Vienna under the presi-
dency of the Austrian delegate, M. de Blumfeld,
and decided on the regulations which it had been
charged to draw up. These negotiations were
conducted with great tact, and to the predominant
advantage of Austria, and all the stipulations
were worded in a sense favourable to Austrian
monopoly. The Servian commissioner proposed
that it should be stipulated that the companies
established on the territory of one of the States
could not prevent the foundation of other compa-
nies by the neighbouring States, or in other words
that the right of the former should not ex-
tend over all the course of the river to the exclusion
of its neighbours. This clause was intended as a
check to Austria, which was opposed to the forma-
tion of French, English, Russian, or indeed any
companies except her own.' The proposition was
strongly objected to by the president, and a very
stormy discussion followed. The Servian com-
missioner refused to take part in the labours of the
commission, and formally protested against its de-
cisions, and his example was followed by his col-
leagues of Moldavia and Wallachia. Turkey hesi-
tated for some time, but at length yielded, and the
ascendancy of Austria once more prevailed. The
convention was ratified by the Gerthan States and
by Turkey, but the three commissioners of the States
of the Danube did r of sign the definitive document.
This arrangement, therefore, according to the
spirit of the treaty of Paris, is radically defective,
and ought to be regarded as null and void. After
these incidents, explanations were exchanged be-
tween the different cabinets. France, it is said,
energetically protested against the validity of the
document signed at Vienna. Count de Buol, in,
a note of the 7th Dec., is said to have claimed for
the States on the banks of the Danube the exclusive
right of regulating the navigation of the upper
part of the river, and pointed out the distinction
which he made at the Congress of Paris between
the Danube at its mouth and the upper part of
the river. He besides stated that the European
Congress had nothing to do with the question, and
that the document which had been signed would
only be presented to the Conference at Paris as a
simple notification. To these strangepretensions the
French cabinet is said to have replied by a circular
addressed to its representatives at the courts of the
powers which sign the treaty, and in which it
strongly insisted on the necessity of maintaining
the rights of the conference, of having a revision of
the convention of the States on the river, and of
settling the question by a decision of the European
Congress. Such is the subject of the fresh difference
which has arisen through the tactics of the cabinet

TEE ART TREASURES EXHIBITION.

The Manchester Town-council having, as already
reported in these columns, unanimously pa3sed a
resolution of thanks to the executive committee of
the late Art Treasures Exhibition for their able and
arduous services in the management, the presen-
tation of this testimonial on behalf of the corpora-
tion took place yesterday afternoon in the Mayor's
Parlour at the Town-hall. A dejeuner was pro-
vided by the Mayor, Mr. Ivie Mackie, at
which were present eighty gentlemen, includ-
ing, besides the members of the Executive
Committee, Sir J. Potter, M. P., Mr. Korshaw,
M.P., Mr. J. Pender, Sir J. Watts, and the mem-
bers of the Town Council.

After tbe toasts of "The Queen," and the "Prince
Consort,"
The MAYOR rose, amid loud cheering, to propose
the " Health of the Art Treasures Exhibition Com-
mittee." He said this meeting was for the purpose
of paying a deserved compliment to gentlemen who
had been most ably and zealously concerned in a
work of great national importance. (Hear.) At a
meeting of the town-council held last Wednesday
a resolution was unanimously passed—proposed by
Mr. Rumney, and seconded by Mr. Rawson, in
speeches which did credit to themselves as well as
to those in whose honour they were intended—
(cbeers)—which resolution ho should read, as it
would explain better than anything be could say
the thoughts to which he was desirous to give ut-
terance. It was as follows :

" That this council is deeply impressed with the groat
advantages conferred upon this city and the community at
large by the recent Exhibition of Art Treasures of the
United Kingdom, an exhibition of works of art unrivalled
in magnitude and value, the examination and study of
which wore eminently calculated to improve the know-
ledge and elevate the taste of all visitors, and, by bringing
together different classes not accustomed to associate, to
promote goodwill and kindly feeling among all sections of
the people.
"That gratefully acknowledging the munificent liberality
with which the heavy expenses to be incurred were origi-
nally guaranteed ; as also the noble manner in which the
applications made for the loan of works of art were re-
sponded to by the contributors, this council feels called
upon, as representing, and on behalf of, the citizens of
Manchester, in an especial manner to tender its most sin-
cere and cordial thanks to Thomas Fairbairn, Esq., the
chairman, Sir James Watts, and Thomas Ashton, William
Entwistle, Joseph Heron, Edmund Potter, and Sigismond
James Stern, Esqrs., the members of the executive com-
mittee, for their disinterested and arduous labours ; for the
untiring and unremitting attention which during so
lengthened a poricd they devoted to the undertaking ; for
the judgment and ability which characterised all their pro-
ceedings and arrangements, and which so largely contri-
buted to render completely successful the most memorable
exhibition of modern times, conferring lasting Same and
honour upon the city in which it has been held."

POLICE INTELLIGENC'E.7—Dec. 30.

MANSION-HOUSE. George Harrison was
charged with having stolen a sovereign from Miss
Annie M'Carthy, of No. 110, Cheapsid,i, tobac-
conist.

The prosecutrix said—Last night at about half-
past 9 o'clock the prisoner came into my shop and
asked for two twopenny cigars. I placed them
before him, and he offered me a sovereign, which
I took and placed in a drawer in which was a little
basin for gold. There were •two other sovereigns
and two half-sovereigns then in the basin. I then
closed the drawer and opened the till to give him.
the silver. He said, "Return my sovereign, I
have small change." I again opened the drawer
and returned him the sovereign, which he took up li
with one hand, while with the other he reached
across and snatched a sovereign out of the bowl,
dropping at the same time a shilling into the bowl.
With both my hands I caught his hand, and found
the sovereign jammed between his thumb and the
palm of his hand. While I was struggling with him
an elderly gentleman came to the door, to whom I
said, " Pray, assist me, this man has stolen a sove-
reign." The gentleman did not assist me, but
stood by, and the prisoner relaxed his hold and I
took the sovereign from him. He then said it was
his, and that I had not returned the sovereign he
had given me, and I asked the gentleman to call in
an officer, which he accordingly did, and when the
prisoner stooped down and undid his shoes and
pulled off his stocking I heard some money drop.
He said it was a florin. I saw a florin iu his hand.
The officer then came, but the sovereign was not
found, neither was the florin.

Cross-examined by Mr. Lewis for the prisoner—
He did not place a shilling on the counter, but
dropped it into the bowl. He did not say anything
about two half-sovereigns until after the officer
came. He came into the shop alone. The door
was closed. He had been kneeling behind the
counter full five minutes before the officer came.
The gentleman would not allow him to escape.
Noble, 441—1 was called to the shop and there
saw the prisoner, who was given into my charge for
stealing a sovereign from the till. *He said he had
given the sovereign to the woman to pay for two
cigars, and that he afterwards said to her that he
had smaller change and wished for two half-sove-
reigns for his sovereign. He wished to be searched-
in the shop. I searched his waistcoat pockets there,
and I afterwards searched him at the station house,
and ls. in silver,. lid. in copper, and 3oz of tobacco
upon him. I received a sovereign from prosecutrix,
which was that she believed he had taken from her
till. I asked him his address. At first he said he
came from Stafford, and then he said he came from
Manchester, and ultimately he refused to give any
address, or to give any satisfactory account of him-
self.

The Prosecutrix—lt appeared to me that he put
his own, sovereign, which I returned to him, into
his pocket.

The Lord Mayor said in all probability the pri-
soner had swallowed the sovereign, and directed
that he be kept in prison under medical treatient.
The prisoner was then committed for trial.

DEATH FROM EATING PLUM-PUDDING.— Yesterday
Mr. Wakley held an inquest at the Eiepbant and Castle,
St. Pancras workhouse
Camden-town, on Frederick Harding, late an inmate ot,
the deceased ‘5, agrd about GO On Saturday
as devoaring .a large quantity of cold
plum-pudding, and after be bad eaten some pounds of
the pudding and was in the act of swallowing another
large
piece, he fell suddenly forward in an insensible
state to the ground. Mr. William Coster, the senior
medical officer, was sent for ; but before he came the
man expired. Mr. Coster, upon making a post morlent
examination, observed some three or four pounds of
plum-pudding in the deceased's stomach, as also a (plans
tits in his respiraVry organs ; and, from the condition
of the brain, it would seem that the wretched man had
been seized with a sudden fit of apoplexy. On the day
before (Christmas-day) the inmates of the workhouse
were well regaled with good 'fare, in the shape of roast
beef and plum-pudding, and the deceased must have
managed to have received more than his own share. The
jury returned a verdict of " Accidendal death by ruffo.,
cation."

AUSTRIA.

The Vienna journals state that the reduction of
the military police force has now been effected at
Vienna, Pague, Posty, and other large towns in
which category are some of upwards of .40,000
souls ; it is to be completely suppressed, and the
civil police are alone to be charged with the
maintenance of order. These measures are to be
applicable to Hungary and other States, as well as
to Austria proper.

PRUSSIA.
BERLIN, DEC. 28.

It will be remembered that the city of Hamburg,
before obtaining a recent loan of 10,000,000 marks
Banco from the Austrian Government Bank, made
unsuccessful attempts to obtain an advance from
Prussia and Saxony. The circumstance that pro-
bably contributed most of all to produce willing-
ness on the part of the Austrian Bank to part with
au article so much in demand everywhere as silver
was the happy state in which that institution found
itself at the time, of not being required to honour its
notes with a corresponding value in coin ; whila to
the Government itself (and we are given to under-
stand that the Emperor himself was among the fore-
most to suggest it) doubtless the opportunity a f
gaining some popularity in Germany presented con-
siderable attraction—the more so as the two North '
German States were losing ground a little iu popu-
lar feeling by their unwillingness to come forward.
It was probably with the amiable motive of spoil- ,
ing the joy felt by the recipient of the loan and
the pride felt by the lender, as well as of setting •
itself right in the eyes of Germany, that the
Prussian Government recently thought it desirable
to publish a despatch forwarded by Baron Von
Mauteuffel to Herr Von liamptz' the ropresenta- '
tive of Prussia at Hamburg, which contained an
expose of the motives that had withheld tle Prus-
sian Government from according the aid required.
Consistently with the self-protecting, timidly
cautious course the Prussian Government took in
the Hamburg matter, it has declined also to assist
the city of Lubeck with a loan of 600,000 thalers ;
the amount has, however, since been obtained with- ,
out much difficulty from the wealthy money mer-
chants of Hamburg. The Government has also
refused, on two occasions, the importunate
of the corporate merchants of this Place
foraa requestnk spe-
cial
law with respect to houses in difficulties, but whose b
and temporary modification of the bankrupt

assets slow a fair and reasonable) chance of paying
20s. in the pound. The evident object of the Minis-
ter of Commerce is not only to repress all over-
speculation, but to compel all traders to keep not
only within, but very far within, their real means,
which, considering that the capital at the commsnd
of Prussian commerce is rather scanty, is by no
means favourable to the rapid development of com-
merce and industry.

Tue PROJECTED IMPROVEMENTS IN PARIS.— The
following are the items of the intended PariA improve-
ments :-1. Building a set of roads (chausees) aid
boulevards, which, branching of from the railway ter-
minus, will unite all the districts of the town and divide
it, as it were, like the squares of a chess-board ; the
streets to be embellished in succession. 2. Improvement
of the sanitary condition of Paris, by the leading of pure
water into all the stories of houses, and a p. eeet sewags
of the streets. 3. A new organisation of the interna'
communicat'ons, which, although it will not reach the
regularity of a railway traffi.-, will still afford grea
alleviation to the overcrowded streets. The continua-
tion of the railway up to the markets (Italics),
the completion of the circular railway line around Paris,
on the left bank of the Seine, the util zation of this line,
and the chief market terminus for the transport of tra-
vellers, and especially the conveying of the workingmen
over the whole extent of the line to their often distant
dwellings, is among the chief items of this grand plan.
To this is to be added the removing of the ectroi stations
(tollbar.) to the external fortifications, the transferring
of the huspitsl beyond the centre of the town, and th.,
ensrgetio exertions at the workmen's habitation..—/Utts-

LONDON, THURSDAY, DEC, 31, 1857.

The year now rapidly drawing to a conclusion has
been, in many respects, one of the most remarkable
and impertanfol those recorded in our national his-
tory. We have been sorely tried, and passed trium-
phantly through a very formidable ordeal. No
foreign war has ever pressed so heavily on our re-
sources as the intestine commotions produced by
the Indian Mutiny and the Monetary convulsion.
Our brethren, and what is far worse, our sisters,
and their children, have been butchered, under
circumstances of the most horrible atrocity. And
that not by an enemy, but by miscreants whom
we had pampered until their insolence got beyond
all bounds, and they turned the arms with which
we had provided them, and the discipline we had
taught the n, not only against the officers whom
they were bound to obey, and from whom they
bad received nothing but kindness, but against
the entire English race, who had proved such
liberal paymasters and generous protectors. There
was an organised determination to purloin ono of
the brightest gems from the British Diadem ; and
that by means so diabolical, that the public jour-
nals hays been unable to detail the heartrending
partienlars.

Humanly speaking, it was astonishing that the
defJply laid scheme, the cunning plot did not suc-
ceed better. It was proved beyond the possibility
of doubt, that the entire army of Bengal was cor-
rupted to the very core, that 70,000 armed and
disciplined troops had conspired to produce a ge•
neral massacre of Europeans, concealing their
aapluinary designs by unparalleled duplicity and
treachery. It was, indeed, strange that a plot of
which so many thousands must necessarily have
I'4'l cognisant should have been so strictly cm-
coaled that not the slightest hint had oozed out,
nor was there the most remote doubt entertained
as to the loyalty
and devotion of the double•dyed
traitors and murderers who had prepared their
diabolical plans with so
touch art and cunning.
Under Providence tile Anglo-Indiaal E
,iE it

and secondly, by the wonderful en„.gY, ability,
and bravery displayed by the British ofneera and
troops engaged in the cause of truth and justice,
honour and loyalty. We have, indeed, with rare
exceptions, been truly fortunate in our Generals.
