There has seldom been a more satisfactory Speech
from the Throne than that which appeared in our
impression of yesterday. Precedent unfortunately
compels the SOVEREIGN of Great Britain to deal in
generalities. She cannot publish an argumenta-
tive pamphlet, entering into every topic of foreign
and domestic policy, such as the President of the
United States delights in, nor adopt the dictatorial
phraseology in which a neighbouring potentate
rejoices. She merely indicates matters that will
be brought forward by her Ministers for the time
being, and the state of the national relations with
other Powers. If any objection can be taken, an
amendment is generally moved ; and that no such
step was taken on the present occasion, by either
of the rival leaders of the Opposition, proves be-
yond the possibility of doubt the satisfactory nature
of the document, in which no possible hole could
be picked.

Reformers. All the leaders of party in the
Legislature are avowedly in favour of Reform—
not merely the champion of the last Reform
Bill, Lord JOHN RUSSELL and his ancient Whig
following, not merely Mr. JOHN BRIGHT and the
more advanced section of the Liberals, but the last
Premier, Lord PAL:SIERSTON, and Ms supporters on
the side of the Opposition, and the actual Premier
Lord DERBY, and Ms supporters on the side of the
Government. Within Parliament not a dissentient
voice—without Parliament, a general coincidence of
opinion that in 1859, the year of Reform has at
length arrived. In the midst of this choral cry for
Reform—the Times raises its formidable voice as
that of an Anti-Reformer !
It must be confessed that there were pre-
viously audible two or three small voices which
each in turn had declared—as distinctly though
certainly not as loudly pretty much the
same thing. Mr. DRUMMOND had written " a thin,
acid pamphlet "—Mr. LOWE had delivered a sour,
atrabilious speech—the old Tory Quarterly had
just growled out a sullen protest against the
" advance " movement—when the Times roars out
ditto in stentorian tones in the very nick, upon the
very eve of the re-assembling of Parliament.
Nobody wants Reform—because everybody is
agreed to have it. With the very substantial
facts and figures comprised in Mr. BRIGHT'S
schedules actually before us —we are talk-
ing simply about a chimera ! The ex-Vice-

President of the Board of Trade protests,
in his address to his constituents, that the country
really cares not one straw for Reform. The hon.
and eccentric member for East Surrey, in his
brochure inscribed to the representative of Bir-
mingham, jeers at the same demand as a delusion.
And, as a matter of course, the ultra-Tory Quarterly
refers in earnest words of admiration to Mr.
Ditlflll3loND'S "able letter to Mr. BRIGHT,"
p. 267, and to Mr. LOWE'S " honest speech
at Kidderminster," p. 256. This effusion fail-
ing, as we have already intimated, was only
natural enough, was merely what might have
been reasonably expected from the Quarterly !
But from the Times something better might really,

There are gratifying assurances that poverty and
crime have diminished during the past year, a
tribute to th 3 valour of the Indian army, and a
brief reference to the Proclamation by which her
Munn assumed the direct government of that
important portion of her dominions. The friendly
assurances from foreign Powers are not merely of
the ordinary character: there is a significant hint
respecting the inviolate maintenance of the faith of
public treaties, andher own desire to contribute to the
preservation of the public peace ; and this was
established by the statement of the Chancellor
of the Exchequer respecting the real cause
of the uneasy state which arises " from the
occupation of Central Italy by the armies
of foreign Powers and the mutual jealousies
It is satisfactory
of France and Austria."
to know that representations have been made not
only to the Powers chiefly interested, but also to
the Cabinets of Berlin, St. Petersburgh, and Turin,
as to the propriety of removing the causes of the
discontent, and obtaining the co-operation of all
these Powers in improving the state of affairs in
the afflicted districts. The right honourable
gentleman, although the state of affairs is
critical, believes that war may be avoided, and
every true-hearted person will ardently join in
the aspiration.

TRIESTE, FEB. 4.

According to advices from the Caucasus, an
attempt of the Russians to take the town of Gelend-
shik on the Circassian coast, by surprise, has failed.

TRIESTE, FEB. 3.
Advices have been received from Corfu to the
29th of January.

The lonian Parliament, after having unani-
mously declared for union with Greece, passed a
resolution to elect a Parliamentary Committee for
the purpose of considering what further measures
should be taken. Mr. Gladstone, in consequence,
addressed a message to the Parliament, stating that
this resolution was contrary to the Constitution,
and advising that the Committee be merely em-
powered to address a petition to the Queen of Great
Britain.

The members of the lonian Parliament have
Minded over to Mr. Gladstone the address of the
Committee to the Queen, with the request to lay
before the great powers their desire for union with
Greece.

We shall now pass from foreign affairs, not
from lack of ample materials, but because domestic
matters will he infinitely more satisfactory to the
great majority of the community at the present
moment, and the others will keep better for a brief
space. A temporary increase of expenditure will
be rendered necessary in providing for the recon-
struction of the British Navy. If there is a single
point on which Englishmen are justly proud it is the
maritime supremacy of Great Britain, and they are
peculiarly sensitive on anything closely trenching
on its power, or by which it might by any possi-
bility become infinitesimal, or be at any time endan-
g.erga. On such a point economy would be but a
"penny-wise and pound-foolish" policy; and the
nation will readily bear any burden that may be
required for so important a purpose.
We arc also to have important measures of legal

at the least, have been anticipated. Our contem-
porary might, of course, still continue to derive a
good deal of its inspiration from the direcc-
ion of Kidderminster—but from the Quar-
erly !—and from Mr. DRUMMOND !—that was
hardly to have been looked for. However this
might be in conjecture—so it is in reality. The
article in the Quarterly, the speech of Mr. LowE,
the pamphlet of Mr. DRUMMOND, have led at
last to this extraordinary exhibition on the part of
the chief among our contemporaries.

some-
thing in its way really remarkable. A leader on
Reform, with especial reference, of course, to Dlr.
BRIGHT, began with an expression of bewildered
astonishment as to " what purpose," as to « what
definite object" the hearers of the member
for Birmingham are expected to do all that he
recommends ? Another part of the same
paper contained a report by electric telegraph
of what was, we presume, intended to be facetiously
or satirically entitled, in large capitals, THE BIR-
31INGHAM GREAT REFORM MEETING. Facetiously
and satirically so headed, we say, because the report
in itself went on to state, under date " Birming-
ham, Tuesday, 10 p.m."—" The demonstration in
favour of Mr. BRIGHT'S scheme of Reform, which
has been so long promised, was made in our Town-
hall to-night ; but if attendance is any evidence of
the enthusiastic support of the people, the meeting

LONDON AND COUNTY BANK.

11/ 12
9 10

A meeting of the London and County Bank took place
yesterday—Mr. W. Champion Jones in the chair—when
the report was adopted unanimously, and a dividend de-
clared for the past half-year at the rate of 6 per cent.,
making a total distribution for the year 1858 of 11 per cent.,
free of income tax. The amount due by the bank to cus-
tomers on the 31st of December last was £4,264,126, show-
ing an increase compared with 1857 of £810,700 under the
head of drawing balances, and a decrease of £BO,OOO in de-
posits at interest. The cash in hand, at call, &c., was
£1,452,250, or 1370,607 more than in the previous year, and
an addition of £209,674 has also been made to the invest-
ments in Government and other securities, the present total
being £618,604. In the course of the year the bills passing
through the head office amounted to 12,317,560, of which
£2,000,000 were liquidated in the same period, with a loss
by bad debts of £l5O only; 822 new accounts have been
opened. With regard to the Tipperary Bank case, it was
stated that notice of appeal has been received, but that it is
doubtful if the matter will be carried any further. The
claim of £90,000 on a mortgage on the property of the Duke
of Buckingham, now under litigation, is opposed on
precisely similar grounds as in the Irish case, the argu-
ments being in each instance identical. The Westminster
property is prollucing a return. In answer to a question
the chairman stated that the directors have no present in-
tention of registering under the Limited Liability Act. It
is not considered desirable to move alone, but when the
other banks register the London and County will join. It
was also observed that the public have not been familiarised
with this alteration in the constitution of joint-stock banks,
and that a sudden change might produce distrust. An-
nexed is an abstract of . the report :—" The directors have
the pleasure to lay before the proprietors a statement of tho
affairs of the bank for the half-year endin,, the 31st of Dec.,
1853. The net profit of tho bank for the last half-year,
after deducting all expenses; income-tax, and rebate, and
making ample provision for bad and doubtful debts,
amounts to £31,165, including the balance of 14,030
brought forward from the 30th of June. Tho directors re-
commend that a'dividend be now declared of 6 per cent. for
the half-year, free of income-tax, which with .5 per cent.
paid for the six months ending the 30th of June, will be 11
per cent. for the past year, and leave a balance of £1,165 to
be carried forward to profit and loss account."

In Bank and Miscellaneous shares prices are
steady.

The Prince and Princess Napoleon arrived this
afternoon in Paris, and were most warmly greeted
at the railway station and along their passage to the
Tuileries. The bridal party reached the terminus
of the Lyons Railway about three o'clock, and were
received by Marshal Magnan, General the Marquis
de Lawcestine, the Prefects of the Seine and Police,
and a number of other persons of high station. A
regiment of infantry was drawn up in the court-
yard, and rendered the usual military honours to
their Imperial Highnesses. After a short delay,
the Prince, the Princess Clotilde, and the Princess
Mathilde, who had gone in the morning as far as
Fontainebleau to meet her sister-in-law and
brother, entered court carriages with their suites,
and proceeded by the Rue de Lyon, the Rue de
the Place Saint Germain l'Auxerrois,
the Court of the Louvre, the Place Napoleon,
:and the Place du Carrousel to the Palace. The
escort was composed of a squadron of the cuirassiers
.of the guard. Four battalions of the national guard
.lud a regiment of voltigeurs formed a double line
.from the court of the Louvre to the Arc de Triomphe
klu Carrousel. A regiment of cuirassiers of the
:guard and a regiment of dragoons of the line were
drawn up on the Place du Carrousel, and a batta-
lion of voltigeurs formed a double line in the court-
, yard of the Tuileries. Their Imperial Hignesses, on
arriving at the palace, were received most affection-
at4 !ly by their Majesties, and are not to proceed to
tit, Lir own apartments in the Palace Royal until this
evening. A great crowd had assembled in the
strec ‘ts along which the Imperial party passed, and
the ;windows were filled with persons anxious
o cate:l a
glimpse of the bride. Cheers burst out
