EGYPT.

Private accounts from Alexandra corroborate
the statements mentioned some few days ago,
relative to the efforts made by the Apostolic
Vicar, backed by the French Consul, to force
the Gregorian calendar on the United Greek
s, the shutting-up of the church, and the banish-
ment of the officiating priests. The writer of the
letter adds—

" The population, who still refuse to accept the
clendar, seeing the Consul interfere with matters
which are fereign to his functions, inasmuch as the
United Greeks are a nation apart and entirely under
the protection of Turkey, and, being deprived of
their church and their priest, m re than 100
families have applied to the Schismatic Patriarch,
who has received them as converts to his faith.
As soon at the Bishop of Cairo became aware
of the fact, lie lost no time in proceeding to
Alexandria, in order to demand of the Vicar Apos-
tolic by what right he issu,d such orders, instead
of protecting, as he ought to have done, the
united Gre.ks ; and also by what right the French
Consul-General interfered in a matter with which
lie had no concern. The Bishop represented that
the people were determined to preserve their ancient
calendar, that they opened a church for religious
service, as the Patriarch had interdicted the use of
his own, that fur doing so they had the full autho-
risation of the Government, and that it was not
to be believed that the French Government would
support their consul in these acts of injustice.
" The' Bishop of Cairo then agreed with the
Vicar Apostolic to set apart an altar in the church
of the Pat iarch where a priest should celebrate
mass fir those who refussed to accept the Grego-
rian calendar. The priest who was authorised by
the Patriarch to p-rform that ditvy refused. He
had an interview with the Vicar Aposti:lic to in-
duce him to alter his determination, which he at
once did, being supported by the French Consul-
General. The Vicar Apostolic had no right what-
ever to interfere. The Bishop of Cairo, feeling
keenly this injury done to his religion, wrote a strong
letter to the Patriarch, and announced to the seven
bishops his colleagues, who, with their flocks, are
opposed to the Gregorian calendar, the state of
affairs at Alexandria. and how the act of the Consul
in shutting up the chusch forced so many to go over
to the Schism 'tics. In addition to those whohave al-
ready joined the schism, 50 families, seeing them-
selves wiihout a church or a priest, intend doing the
same to-day (the sth). The bishop has just re-
ceived a telegraphic despatch informing him that
great discontent prevails among the United Greek
population of Cairo, in consequence of the changes
in the calendar, and matters appeared to him so
grave that he at once left for that city. I foresee
that very unpleasant consequences will spring out
of this tampering of the Vicar Apostolic and the
Consul in our religious affitirs ; there are here
hardly 30 who are disposed in favour of the Gre-
gorian calendar."

AUSTRIA.

" It is well known that the customs' union which
has for the last five years existed between Austria
and the Duchies of Parma and Modena," says a
letter received from Vienna, " will very shortly
cease and terminate. The following figures prove
that the dissolution of this union is for the interest
of Austria. According to the treaty of union,
Austria had a right to receive 12,500,000 lire (84
centimes each) on the nett receipts, but at the
same she guaranteed to the Duchy of Modena an
annual sum of 1,150,000 lire, and to the
Duchy of Parma one of 1,1:30,000 lire. The sur-
plus over and above these three sums was to
be equally divided between the thaee states.
In order that these articles of the treaty might
be executed, it was necessary that the receipts
should amount to at least 15,000,000 lire. As
the expenses are very considerable, and as ex-
perience has shown that it will be impossible to
wtain that sum, Austria has not received her
12,500,000 lire, and has been obliged to account to
the two duchies for the stipulated sums. She has
therefore no interest in maintaining the present
arrangement."

THE MUTINY AT NUSSEERABAD.

The following is an extract of a letter from an
officer in the 15th Bengal Native Infantry. It is
dated Beaur, May 31 :
" The day after my return reports began to be
circulated about the disaffection of our regiment
and the 30th Native Infantry, most of them being
to the effect that our men were the instigators.
We fancied these reports much„ exaggerated, and
imagined that, though our men might follow in
a move of the kind, they would not be the
first to lead the way. The result shows how we
were mistaken. Every precaution was taken for
the safety of the station. The Cavalry (Ist Bombay
Lancers) were nearly all of them under arms every
night, and strong bodies of them patrolled the can-
tonment. The guns were kept limbered up all
night and loaded with grape, and a detachment of
250 Europeans of her Majesty's 83d and some Euro-
pean artillery were sent for from DeeFa, about 200
miles south-west of Nusseerabad. I used to sleep
with a loaded revolver and my sword by my bed-
side,ha.cindbsehenouladwnokotehaany night and told that the
been in the least surprised
if I
Sepoys were firing the bungalows, which in other
places seems to have been a preliminary step. The
excitement seemed to calm down, or at any rate we
got easier in our minds, and fancied that the crisis
had past. On the night of the 27th I happened to
be on duty, and on going round the station at mid-
night found everything remarkably quiet. Next
day, when I was eating
my tiffin in my own house,
about half-past 3in the afternoon, my servants
rushed in saying that the men had risen. I called
ifor my p ,ny and armed myself, and then went over
with W— to the Colonel's. When he was ready

TO THE EDITOR OP THE SUN.

SlR,—Trt the d,-hates touching the attacks made upon
General Asliburnhani, Lord Panmure and all who spoke
maintained that for a subordinate officer to publish
calumnies against his superior was a dangerous offence
demanding punishment—that an officer so doing was un-
fit to be employed.
This is talk. Mark the practice—

When Sir C. Napier was the head of an army in
the field, and in most critical circumstances, Sir J. Out-
ram, then Colonel or Major Outrun, published a letter
filled with sbambful and shameless calumnies and in-
sinuations' against Sir C. Napier. He told the soldiers
that their general, with an ignorance below that of a
subaltern, had moved them through pestilent marshes,
and thus wilfully, as well as ignorantly, caused the
frightful mortality which had befallen them—in fact,
that he was their murderer ; and that no mistake might
occur as to his meaning, Baist, of the Bombay nines,
repeating the accusation in that paper, actually de-
nounced Sir Charles as the "murderer of the soldiers."

Sir 0. Napier, as shown in his biography recently
published by me, demanded protection and redress from
the highest military and civil authorities. He got no
redress. How was he met ? He was told by Lord
Ripon that such attacks were wholesome stimulants
to zeal ; and the practical comment was the appointing
of ()dram to a most lucrative post—one far above what
his rank gave him any title to hold.

It would seem that to assail one of Lord Panmure's
appointments gives a totally different aspect to such
matters. W. NAPIER, Lieut.-General.

NEWFOUNDLAND.

Sir J. PAICINGTON presented a petition from New-
found!and on the subject of the proposed convention with
France relating to the Newfoundland fisheries; and
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies as to the
intentions of her Majesty's Government with respect to
that Convention. _ . .

Mr. LABOUCHERE, after stating the difficulties
that existed in reference to the settlement of the right of
fishing on the banks of Newfoundland and this country,
said that, finding there was no chance of their coming to a
satisfactory settlement of the question, it was thought de-
sirable by her Majesty's Government to enter into a
convention with France, on the understanding that
it should be approved of by the colony. Unfortunately
the colonists at first considered their rights had been in-
infringed on, and they refused to accept the terms of the
convention. Since then matters had been explained,
and they now felt satisfied at what had been done by
this Government. He asJured the house that every endea-
vour would be taken by this Government to bring this
matter to a satisfactory conclusion. He would be no
party to compromise or surrender the rights of the
colony without the express consent of the Legislative
Council of that colony. He would shortly lay before
Parliament papers in reference to the question.
CHURCH RATES.
Sir J. TRELAWNEY asked if the Government in-
tended to introduce this session a bill for the abolition of
church rates ?
Lord PALMERSTON said that the Government bad
the question under consideration with the view to the
introduction of such a measure next session.
Sir J. TRELAWNEY expressed himself dissatisfied
with the answer, and said that unless he had a more
satisfactory answer he should bring the question before
the house next Monday.
SUPPLY.

Mr. WILSON moved that the ordinary supply be
granted to her Majesty, and said that he should move
to-morrow that the house go into committee to consider
the subject.

SAVINGS BANKS.

The house went into committee on savings banke,
when

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved
the following resolution :—That it is expedient to amend
the laws relating to savings banks, and to provide for
the establishment of savings banks with the security of
the Government. He said that this resolution was ne-
cessary for the introduction of a bill similar to that of last
session. During the recess the bill had been sent to all the
savings banks, and the great majority of them were of
opinion that the principle of the bill should be adopted
by the house. They objected to the limitation of the
amount of deposit from 2001. to 1001., and he intended
to omit that clause from the bill. After stating some
minor details in connect-ion with the bill, the right hon.
gentleman said that he intended to alter the present
mode of investment in Exchequer Bills. By the old bill
the commissioners invested their money on an average of
prices during the quarter, but by this bill it would be
made on the price of the day of the investment. He
proposed to introduce a bill prohibiting private persons
and companies from establishing banks under the title of
savings backs, to prevent the public from being imposed
on.
Sir H. WILLOUGHBY, in the course of his remarks
on the question, said there was now a deficiency of the
savings banks funds amounting to 5,280,0001., which he
said arose from the inconvenient, he would say the mis-
chievous, system of allowing the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer to use the stocks of savings banks for the purposes
of the State in carrying on his operations of finance
and thereby working out his own projects and not those
that would he for the advantage of the savings bank
fund.. He contended that the Chancellors of Ex-
chequer had no right to deal with one farthing of this
fund as they had dune, and he objected to their placing
the money of the savings banks under the control
of individual officers of the National Debt Office. He
asked the Government to have the whole matter re-
ferred to a select committee. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. H. HERBERT expressed a hope that the right
hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer would
press the clause relative to Government taking the re-
spolfaibility, instead of the present law, which absolved
the trustees and manager from all responsibility, and
held out a false inducement to the peore to part with
their money.

Mr. SOfHEIZAN ESCOTT said tLis bill proposed
to introduce a new system of savings banks, and he was
of opinion the subject should;be referred to .a stLet com•
mitten. He, however, expressed his approval of the
principles of tie bill.

LONDON, MONDAY, MAY 11, 1857.

This evening the Chancellor of the Exchequer
will move for a Select Committee t) inquire into
the operation of the Bank Act of 1844, and of the
Bank Acts for Ireland and Scotland of 1845.
The Right Ilenoural)le Gentleman has lost no
time in introducing t're all-important question ;
we trust, however, that he will be prepared to
modify materially the opinions which he enun-
ciated on the Gth of February, or that he will at
least consent to the appointment of a fair and
impartial committee, whose report cannot be re-
garded as "a foregone conclusion." Even within
the last three months additional light has been
cast on the subject ! We have seen the rate of
interest again raised to a minimum, of 7 per cent.
to the immediate customers of the Bank of Eng-
land, which may be regarded as 10 or 12 per cent.
to those who are not so fortunate as to possess
equal facilities for obtaining pecuniary acc3mmo-
dation. It is certain that the trading and mann-
faeturing interests are greatly injured by this
exorbitant and usurious price. Orders are re-
fused, simply because the cost of obtaining the
means of executing them is so great, that the
entire profits would be transferred from the
pockets of the producers to those of the non-
producers. There are unquestionably plenty of
loan societies and money-lenders, whose demands
increase in proportion to the necessities of their
victims, until there is every prospect that they
will eventually swallow up not merely the pre-
fits, but the whole of the capital of the borrowers.
Industry is paralysed, and, as we have repeatedly
under a better system, might
stated, those who,
be the creators of national wealth, become un-
profitable consumers. In fact, the bees in the
national hive are ruthlessly sacrificed for the be-
nefit of the drones. This deplorable state ,of
affairs has become the normal condition of the
country. Even the limes itself confesses that
"a return to cheap money cannot bo expected for
several years !" There may be sanguine persons
who hope even against hope for a return of better
times. But sooner or later this must end. It
is vain to expect that it can continuo. The inevi-
table end will be certain ruin, and even the
moneyocracy will at length discover the
grave mistake of which they have been
guilty, in " killing the goose that laid the
golden eggs !" But it will then be "too late !"
The mischief wi l be perpetrated, and no liberality
or change can zestore matters to the condition in
