London, England, 1861-11-27

--One letter did not require an answer ; I saw a
great many of them.
Did you get the consent of the Earl of Eglinton ?
—No; he did not write.

Colonel Pinney ?—I saw him, and he consented.
On your oath, did Mr. Thomas Hanbury not re-
fuse to have his name used as patron P—l did not
see him. Messrs. Rogers and Jackson probably did.
Did Lord Ebury consent ?—Yes, when he was
Lord R. Grosvenor, to me personally.
You say that Lord John Russell was going to
make a motion in Parliament. He never did move
it P—No, because there was a dissolution of Parlia-
ment just as it should have been done. (Laughter.)
Something like the dissolution of your society
when it was becoming most useful. (Laughter.)
How many persons were there at the meeting at
Radley's Hotel in 1858—yourself and Griggs ?
There is a letter fewer in his name ; his name is
Grigg.
Oh, the singular Grigg ? (Laughter.)—Well, he
did turn out rather singular. 1 would advise you
not to meddle with him. (Laughter.)
You announced a meeting at Reading, and the
mayor was to be in the chair ?—Yes.
But the mayor did not come P—He did not.
(Laughter.)
Who was in the chair ?—A person named Wil-
liams.

He was one of your collectors ?—He was.
(Laughter.)
Was Mr. Falkner at the meeting in June, 1859 ?
—He was. I did not know his name then. He
gave his name "I Myself." (Laughter.)
Did not " Mr. I Myself" ask Col. Sykes if he
knew anything of the society, and did not Colonel
Sykes say, " I came here expecting Mr. Cowper
would take the chair ?"—Yes.

Who took the chair ?—The dirty person, Mr.
Wall. .

Did you not put Mr. Cowper's letter into the
dirty chairman's hand—(laughter)—and put it to
him if it should be read?—Yes, because there was
libellous matter in it.
Mr. Hawkins then read a letter dated 17, Curzon-
street, July 13, 1859, from the Right Hon. W.
Cowper, to the effect that he had quite misunder-
stood Mr. Bentley's object in calling on him and
declining to take the chair. The right hon. gentle-
man added,—" I am not prepared to offer thanks
to Divine Providence for the visits you have of
your own accord made to any schools, nor for the
200 petitions that have been set on foot, nor to ask
Mr. Estcourt nor Lord John Russell to take a par-
ticular part in Parliament; and I believe the shortest
way of ending the misunderstanding which has
unfortunately arisen will be for you to put some one
else in the chair at the meeting."
Mr. Chambers summed up the plaintiff's case.
Mr. Hawkins addressed the jury for the defence.
He contended that even according to Mr. Bentley's
own admissions the alleged libels were substantially
true ; but even supposing that they had not been
fully proved, then the very smallest damages would
satisfy the justice of the case.
Tue jury deliberated a few minutes in the box,
and then returned a verdict for the defendant.

TREATY BETWEEN SPAIN AND
MOROCCO.

The Madrid journals of the 13th publish the test
of the treaty concluded between Spain and Morocco.
It consists of eight articles, of which the following
is a translation :

"Art. 1. The Spanish troops shall evacuate Tetuan
when the Moorish Government shall have delivered
three millions of dollars.

" Art, 2. The ten millions remaining to complete
the war indemnity stipulated in the treaty of peace
will be paid by half the revenue of the custom-
houses of all the ports of the empire, which the
Sultan places at the disposal of the Queen of Spain,
in order that she may have them collected by means
of Spanish agents.

"Art. 3. The Spanish agents and collectors will
enter upon their duties one month before the
Spanish troops evacuate Tetuan.
" Art. 4. The demarkation of the limits of the
fortress of Melilla will be made conformably to the
Treaty of 1859, and the surrender of these limits
will be made by Morocco before the evacuation of
Tetuan.

" Art. 5. The treaty of commerce mentioned in
the treaty of peace will likewise be signed before
the evacuation of Tetuan.

" Art. 6. Her Majesty the Queen of Spain shall
have the right to order the establishment in Tetuan,
of a house of missionaries like that in Tangier; and
the missionaries shall be able to devote themselveo
to their sacred ministry in any part of the Moorish
empire; and their persons, dwellings, and houses
of refuge are under the special protection of the
Sultan.

"Art. 7. The conditions stipulated in the fore-
going articles shall be fulfilled within the term of
five months, counting from the day on which the
Caliph Muley-el-Abbas shall return to Tangier;
but if they should be fulfilled at an earlier date, the
evacuation of Tetuan will immediately follow.
" Art. 8. The articles of the treaty of peace of

THE ARM} .

His Royal Highness the General Commanding-
in-Chief yesterday evening honoured the entertain-
ment at the Royal Artillery mess, Woolwich, with
his presence. The Duke was attended by the prin-
cipal officers of the Regiment at head quarters. He
arrived at Woolwich precisely at 7, and was received
on the peristyle of the mess entrance by Gen. Sir
R. Dacres and his Staff. After examining the pic-
ture of her Majesty, which had been hung on the
preceding day in the mess room, he took his place
at the right of Sir R. Dacres. His Royal Highness
quitted the board and left Woolwich on his return
to London, under a Royal salute, at half-past 9.
New buildings are to be erected next spring at the
Militia barracks, Lincoln, by which the entire staff
will be accommodated, instead of their being scat-
tered about the city, as hitherto. Houses for the
adjutant, quartermaster, and upwards of 20 ser-
geants, are to be erected.

THAMES.

THE GREAT SILK ROBBERY AND RE-EXAMINATION OF
THE PRisortEns.—James Hunter, a publican, who was
formerly landlord of the Rod Deer Tavern, in Cambridge-
road, Bethnal-green, Edwin Turnbull, a lighterman, James
Gillett, a marine storedealer, and Thomas Smith, a carman,
were again arraigned this day, before Mr. Woolrych,
charged with being concerned in stealing 10 bales of silk on
the river, on the 14th of March last.
The case was proceeding when our reporter despatched
his parcel, and will not terminate until a late hour.
The case will be again adjourned, and it is expected to
last, at intervals, until Christmas. The St. Katharine
Dock Company have already expended upwards of £1,500
in the prosecution of Debock, Newton, Barker, and Crane,
and in the proceedings against the four men under exami-
nation this day.

The Court was crowded, and there was a large number of
Hunter's friends in attendance.

It has been announced that the Exchequer-bills
dated in Juno last, and which now bear 3I per cent. interest,
will, at the expiration of six months from their time of
issue—namely, on the 11th December, be reduced to three
per cent. Some persons have thought it possible that in
the present state of the money market a still lower rate
might have been proposed ; but, looking at the number of
floating securities which now compete with Exchequer-
bills, such a step would have been impolitic. The March
bills, which were issued under the old regulations at 2d per
day, or £3 Os 10d per annum, cannot be subjected to any
alteration until they have run for one year.

COUNT CAyouß.—The municipality at Turin has
ordered a slab of marble to be inserted in the front of the
palace in that town which lately belonged to Count Cavour,
bearing the following inscription :—" Count Camille de
Cavour was born in this house, August 10, 1810, and died
in the same, June 6, W6IA A memorial placed by tile mu-
' nicipality."
London, England, 1861-11-27

SPAIN.

It appears that ono of the Queen of Spain's chap-
lains, D. Fernando de Castro, in a sermon lately
preached in presence of the Court in the Royal
Chapel of Madrid, greatly surprised his audience
by proclaiming his adhesion to the doctrines pro-
pounded by Father Passaglia on the temporal power
of the Pope, and by advocating with much earnest-
ness the principle of a united Italy. D. Fernando
de Castro, besides being one of the Royal chaplains,
is Professor of General History at the University.
" The sermon," observes one of the papers,
" Was an energetic manifesto and an eloquent
protest in favour of the cause of Italy, and the sen-
sation which it has produced proves that the public
completely sympathize with the good cause, which
De Castro has defended with a courage which does
him much honour."

A letter adds that the Court Chaplain " has gone
far beyond Father Passagiia." The name of De
Castro is not unknown to the Madrid public; he is
said to be a man of great erudition, as well as of
considerable talent ; but one can well fancy the
effect of his sermon on the Royal family, the cardi-
nals, the prelates, and, above all, the Archbishop of
Toledo, Father Claret, on hearing such doctrines
defended in the hearing of the King and Queen, and
so soon after the Royal Speech from the throne.

ROBBERY AND WANTON DAMAGE.—Wm. Brooks, a
low-looking lad, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with
the following wanton robbery :

James Crawley, ostler to Mr. Joseph Evans, of 34, New
Bond-street, said—This morning at half-past eight, while
exercising a horse in the yard I saw the prisoner come out
of a coach-house. I asked him what he was doing there,
and he said he had been there to lie down. I made him
go back to see that the things were all right, and on open-
ng a carriage door I found that the cushion had been cut
open and a quantity of horse hair taken out. I then called
in a constable who was passing, and on making a further
search I found that the cushions from two broughams
had been removed, some of the nozzles taken from the
lamps, some of the metal beading torn off the carriage, and
seven plated caps taken from the wheels, and also the lamp
sockets.

Mr. Evans, livery-stable keeper, said the articles would
only fetch at a marine-store dealer's a few shillings, while
the damage and the articles taken, would put him to £2O
expense.
Inspector Webb showed the magistrate the beadingwhich
had been torn off in the most wanton manner, and said
numerous robberies had taken place of late by boys hawk-

ing newspapers for a blind.
Morgan, 183 C, having proved finding the articles on the
prisoner, Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a most deliberate robbery
and committed the prisoner for trial.

GARIBALDI AND THE NEAPOLITANS,

We gave on Monday the substance, by telegraph,
of the reply of Garibaldi to an address of the Nea-
politans on the anniversary of his entry into
Naples. The address bore 22,000 signatures, and
was presented to him at Caprera by Signor Car-
bonelli. The following is the General's reply in
full :

Caprera, Nov. 16, 1861.

Your address, containing 22,000 signatures, is
not the first of your acts which deserves my gra-
titude. I already owe you very much : I already
owe you much affection. To my great regret, I
cannot visit you at the present moment; but I will
be with you when it becomes necessary.

I will add one single word. It is the duty of
every Italian to provide himself with a sword. The
world knows you know how to use it; and I believe
that the hour is at hand. This is intended for him
who tramples under foot the rights of Italy by
force and fraud.

Yours for life, G. GARIBALDI.

DEATH OF THE COUNTESS (DOWAGER) GREY.—
The venerable widow of the late well-known statesman ex-
pired yesterday forenoon at her residence in Eaton-square.
The countess had been ill only a few days. The late
Dowager Countess Mary Elizabeth, whe was the only
daughter of William Brabazon first Lord Pons,nby, was
born March 3, 1775, so that she was in her 87th year.

GUNPOWDER ACT AMENDMENT BILL.
This bill was read a second time.
LACE FACTORIES BILL.

The Duke of NEWCASTLE moved the second reading
of this bill, which was founded on the recommendation of

EMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS.—(THIS EVENING.)
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at half-past two o'clock.

The Municipal Corporation Act Amendment Bill, the
Removal of the Irish Poor Bill, Public Works Ireland Bill,
Windsor Suspended Armouries Bill, Appropriation of Seats
(Sudbury and St. Albans) Bill, and Conjugal Rights (Scot-
land) Bill were read a third time and passed.
TRUSTEES SCOTLAND BILL.

On the motion of the LORD CHANCELLOR, a new
clause was introduced into this bill to delay its operation
until November.
The bill was then reed a third time.
•
The sitting was then suspended.
At five o'clock the LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on
the woolsack.

CONNSOLIDATION OF THE STATUTE LAWS.
The LORD CHANCELLOR laid on the table
a bill for further consolidating the Statute Law.
He did not do so with the idea of further proceed-
ing with the measure this session, but merely that
it might be read a first time, in order to receive the con-
sideration of their lordships previous to the next meeting of
Parliament. The bill dealt with the acts from the
earliest dates and continued down to those passed
in the reign of Edward 111., in short it dealt
with all the acts contained in the first folio volume, published
by the Record Commission. The effect of the bill would be
to reduce that book to about one-fifth of its present size.
The bill was accordingly read a first time.

it was decided to recommend to the proprietors, at the next
meeting, to declare a dividend for the half-year at the rate
of 6i per cent. per annum (less income-tax), out of the met
earaihge for the half-year.
London, England, 1861-08-02

Government would long pause and hesitate be-
fore —it—entered into any agreement with
foreign countries LIMITING the amount of force,
naval or military, which this country ought to
maintain." In other words—the Premier implies
here that the thing is really and truly, as we
have said, impracticable ! He casts the notion
aside with an air of very natural disdain as, in
itself, the merest Quixotism. As to the amount
of forces, naval and military, requisite for the
exigencies of this country, and not only for these
islands, but for the whole of the vast British
Empire, for the whole of the world-wide domi-
nions owning allegiance to the sceptre of VICTORIA,
as to that we alone can be the right judges,
"WE should judge of that amount," says Lord
PALMERSTON with emphasis, " WE should judge
of that amount according to the circum-
stances of the moment," meaning that no other
1 power in the wide world could in reason be left
to decide the limits of our military and maritime
forces for us ! " Any agreement," said the Premier,
Iyesterday from his place in the House of Commons,
" would be with several foreign Powers, because
it is not France alone that is a naval Power.
There is Russia, the United States, Spain,
which is growing in importance, and other
States which have navies, and therefore
any limitation of our own force must be made
with a view not only to the naval power of France,
but to any possible combination of other Powers.
Such an arrangement," he adds, " would I think
lead to interminable doubts and disputes. We must
have officers watching them, and they must
have officers watching us; there would be
doubts and suspicions of bad faith, and, instead of
laying the foundations of peace, we should, I
fear, be sowing the seeds of future interminable
dissensions." Now, as to the common-sense of all
this, there cannot be two opinions. And therefore
—while it is, of course, delightful to indulge occa-
sionally in these millennial daydreams about en-
tering into diplomatic negotiations with France or
with any other country, -with a view to the eventual
beating of our spears into reaping hooks and our
swords into ploughshares—one can't help asking
immediately afterwards—How it is we are expected
to do it !

Owing to the somewhat favourable accounts from the

taken place.

AMERICA.

LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY.
The Canadian Mail steamship North Briton,
which touched at Londonderry yesterday, with ad-
vices to the 20th, has arrived.

The House of Representatives had adopted a
resolution authorising Mr. Van Wyck's Committee
to inquire into every contract made during this war
by any department of the Government. The Com-
mittee is to remain in session during the interim of
the meetings of Congress.
A Washington despatch says that the Tariff
Bill was meeting with unexpected opposition in
the House. The duties recommended by the Com-
mittee of Ways and Means on sugar, coffee, and
tea would probably be reduced.
Senator Simmons is reported to have prepared
an entirely new Tariff Bill, which he proposes to
offer as a substitute for the House Bill raising the
duties 10 per cent. on all articles where the duty
will not exceed 50 per cent.

Pennsylvania had offered 15 additional regiments
for the Federal service.

On the 16th the Federal army, 15,000 strong►
moved towards Winchester, and encamped on
Bunker's-hill for the night, after a slight skiraush
with a small body of rebel cavalry. On the 16th
the advance guard entered Fairfax, after remov-
ing a number of trees with which the Confederates
had blocked up the road. An embankment which
the Confederates had thrown up was found aban-
doned. The people of Fairfax stated that the Con-
federates drew up in order of battle as if prepared
to defend the town, but suddenly retreated with
considerable hurry. The entry of the Federal
troops gave the town a gay appearance.
Advises from Fort Monroe to the 17th state
that two Confederate steamers had landed troops at
Sewell's Point, where apparently formidable pre-
parations were being made to annoy the Federal
shipping, and perhaps the fortress itself.

The Quaker City had captured the brig Amy
Warwick, from Rio Janeiro for Hampton Roads,
and taken her into Boston. The captured vessel
was laden with coffee.

According to a despatch from Memphis of the
17th, the Confederate cruiser Sumter had entered
Berwick Bay, with a cargo of 55,000 Enfield
rifles and rifled cannon, taken from an English
ship boand to New Orleans, which had been
ordered away from the Belize by the blockading
squadron.
London, England, 1861-08-02

PUBLIC OFFICES SITE BILL.

The house, on the motion of Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY,
went into committee on this bill, which, after some remarks
by Lord REDESDALE, to the effect that the arrangements
for the site of the Foreign-office were defective, and likely
to be attended with additional cost to the public, passed
through that stage.

PENSIONS BRITISH FORCES (INDIA) BILL.
This bill, on the motion of Earl DE GREY, passed through
committee, and the house resumed.
The Public Works (Ireland), the Edinburgh University,
the Inland Revenue, the Stamp Duties on Probates, &c.,
and the Revenue Departments Account Bills went through
committee.
Lord REDESDALE called their lordships' attention to
a bill called the Newspaper Bill, which the noble lord op-
posite (Lord Stratheden) was about, without notice, to move
that it be read a second time. Now that was taking their
lordships by surprise, and the more especially as the bill
was rejected by the House of Commons last: session, the
numbers being 36 to 10.
Lord STRATIIEDEN said he should explain to-morrow
the course he intended to pursue.

The Consolidated Fund Appropriation Bill and other
bills were introduced and read a first time ; and their lord-
ships adjourned at seven o'clock.

HOUSE OF COMMONS-YESTERDAY.
The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock.

Sir ROET. PEEL took the oaths and his seat on his re-
election for Tanaworth ; Mr. WESTERN WOOD took the
oaths and his seat on his election for the City of London ,

REFORM.

Mr. WHITE presented a numerously-signed petition,
in f tvour of Parliamentary reform, from the in habitants of
Brighton.

POPULATION.

Mr. WHITE moved an address for returns showing the
population of each county, including cities and boroughs, in
England and Wales, Scotland, and Ireland, according to
the census returns of 1821, 1831, 1841, 1851, and 1861;
and showing the population of counties, parliamentary divi-
sions of counties, cities, and boroughs in England and
Wales, Scotland, and Ireland, according to the census of
1361, distinguishing the separate population in each, with
the total of each county and parliamentary division of a
county, including cities and boroughs, and the number of
representatives returned to Parliament (in similar form to
parliamentary paper, No. 251, of session 1859).—Ordered.
