11HE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITIFS
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grosamith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

VICTGRIA PARK.

This park was attended by an immense number
of sliders, and, strange to say, nearly one-half were
women. Several persons had their heads cut, but
nothing of a dangerous character occurred.
The River Thames ye.3terday presented immense
sheets of floating ice, and the ponds at Hampstead
and Clapham common were crowded throughout
the day. At 10 o'clock last night persons were still
skating by torchlight on the Serpentine.

The frost has returned with great ' severity at
Nottingham, and on Saturday the thermometer
stood at 14.5. Notwithstanding the late thaw there
is still a considerable quantity of snow on the
ground, and up to the present time it is thought
that very little damage has been sustained by the
young wheat plant, which has made its appearance
in various parts of the county, and is progressing
as well as can be expected under the circumstances.

Wild fowl are very easy to catch, and a large num-
ber has been shot during the past few weeks of
severe weather. During the late intense frost two
deaths were accelerated in the town by the incle-
mency of the weather. Snow was yesterday de-
scending fast, and there was every appearance of a
heavy downfall.
Up to Saturday evening there was no material
abatement in :le severity of the weather in Nor-
folk and the surround'ig district. On Friday the
snow wasted a good deal, but on Saturday there
was a fresh accumulation, and with vast sheets of
frozen water, snow-clad slopes, and dull heavy-
skies, the country does rot look particularly cheer-
ing at present. The navigation on the rivers con-
tinues closed, and the mails have been much delayed
on the country roads during the -week. The rail-
way trains have also maintained their punctuality
with difficulty. As some set-off to the gloomy
aspect of the times skating has afforded a vast
amount of amusement, and has been pursued
with ardour and skill, several " matches"
having cone off in various districts. Wild-
fowl shooting has also been prosecuted win
much success. A writer on agricultural prospects
says :—" If the turnips should decay from the ef-
feets of frost, with our scanty and damaged crop of
mangold, keep for stock will prove fearfully short
in the spring, a circumstance which will inevitably
enhance the price of meat."
The weather keeps extremely severe in the north,
the frost being intense, and snow falling at inter-
vals. On Saturday several vessels had to be cut
out of the ice in the Tyne, opposite to Newcastle-
quay. The ice remains quite firm in the river oypo-
site to l`Te wet, qtlemuny, and an immense quantity is
blocked up above Tge,e bridge. .

was
another fearful scene on the Northumberland
coast.

RUSSIAN ADVICES FROM CHINA.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 28.—According to official
despatches from Pekin, the Russian Ambassador at
tb at court, Gen. Ignatieff, greatly assisted the allied
diplomatists in acting as mediator between them
and the Chinese Governments. It appears that the
Emperor, before his flight to Manschuria, had pub-
lished a proclamation, in which he swore to punish
the barbarians for their insolence, and offered a
reward of 50 lan (2 roubles 30 copecks) for the head
of every " black barbarian," meaning the French,
and 100 lan for each " white barbarian," meaning
the British. Previous to the entry of the
allies into Pekin, General Ignatieff, with
an escort *of fourteen Cossacks, repaired to the
hotel of the Russian Embassy, where the Chinese
heads of departments waited on him, imploring
him by their friendship with Russia of two hun-
dred years' standing to save the city from destruc-
tion, and to undertake to be their mediator. To
this the general acceded, after first stipulating the
concession of all the demands made by Russia,
which were immediately granted. He then de-
manded, as a preliminary step, that the Chinese
should at once return the rest of the prisoners
taken when under the protection of a flag of truce,
explaining to them the indignity of the act, which
was a violation of all the principles of international
law, and would call forth the revenge of all Europe,
as well as of Russia, in spite of their two hundred
years of peace and good understanding, and that
the only thing left for the Chinese to do was to
accept the conditions imposed by France and Eng-
land. This advice was followed out; the prisoners
that were still alive were delivered up, as well as
the bodies of those who had succumbed to the bar-
barous tortures inflicted on them by their captors,
after which the treaty of peace was signed and
ratified.

After the ceremony was concluded, Gen. Igna-
tieff entertained the allied ambassadors and a large
number of their officers to dinner. During the
banquet a courier arrived from Irkutzsk, with
despatches from Count Murawieff-Amoorsky, the
Governor-General of East Siberia, which made a
great sensation, especially when it transpired that
the courier had ridden all the way through the
heart of Mongolia in less than 14 days.

RUMOURED DESTRUCTION OF ENGLISH AND
FRENCH GUNBOATS IN THE CHINA WATERS.—The follow•
ing statement has been received at Lloyd's, but great doubts
are expressed as to its correctness :—" Antwerp, Jan. 3.
A dvices from Paris of yesterday's date state that secret
information had been received by the Government, to
the effect that the allied fleets had experienced a terrible
hurricme at the mouth of the Peiho, and eleven English
and seven French gunboats had been destroyed. Crews
sawd.—Shipping Gazette.
A letter from Turin states that a caricature is
stuck up in many parts of that city representing Venetia
offering Francis Joseph a bagful of crowns. This is headed

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—It may not be generally known to the gas
consuming portion of your readers, that a most im-
portant and valuable Act of Parliament came into
force on Monday, the 14th inst., viz., the Sale of
Gas Act, 22d and 23d Vict., c. 66, as amended by
the 23d and 24th Vict., c. 146, and the Metropolis
Gas Amendment Act, 24th and 25th Viet., c. 79,
by which it is enacted that, in the metropolis, and
in all counties and boroughs which have adopted
the act, no meters shall be fixed unless first tested
and stamped as correct by an inspector appointed
under the act, and in a similar Way as weights and

The necessity for such an act of Parliament has
long been felt, in consequence of such a large propos-

in some cases more than 50 per cent. against the

STATE OF NAPLES.

A letter from Naples, dated Oct. 13, says,--Since
I wrote yesterday I have ascertained tbat the fol-
lowing, among other documents, were found on the

Reactionists who lately landed in the Calabrias,

They are, of course,. of . vital interest in the grand
process which is in course of preparation, and will

have a certain historical interest for those of your
readers who have folloWed the course of the Italian
revolution. The first letter I speak of is one from
General Bosco, dated the 10th of July, 1861. Then
follows, in the order of the " instruction," one
signed "F, de B." There are several letters signed

Pio," and several written in this sense :—They
deplore the fact that the foreign Powers had aban-
doned the cause of his Majesty, and recommended
him to place himself at the head of his forces. They
speak also of many officers who had been admitted
into the service of his Sicilian Majesty. In one
letter we read :

" Meanwhile let ustrust that this evil is drawing
near to an end. The manifesto of Mazzini is enough
to open the eyes of even the most incredulous, and
if the Pope and General de Lamoriciere . . .
between them the duel between Victor Emmanuel
and the corifei of the revolution will be a pleasant
diversion."

Another letter, written in August, says
At Marseilles money and men are treated as
articles of. commerce."
The landing in the Calabrias is predicted, and the
Ministry of Calarica. Another letter, signed
" Scilla," and directed to General Borges, says :

" Luvara is a coward; on his arrival intends to
recommend himself as a Liberal, even more Liberal
than the Piedmontese. Gaeta immortalised itself
with the tricoloured standard, and the shield of the
Bourbon in the centre is that which was adopted
and sworn to by the King. If the white standard
has the greatest influence over the masses, you can
adopt it, but adding the tricoloured cravatte, for
you know that the proud duty of Francis 11. is to
raise up a true Italy. "
These are but scanty pickings, but the reserve
which is necessary in a process not as yet made
public prevents my communicating more. Yet
they are sufficient to prove several important points
—first, the indulgence with which•: the French
authorities regarded the activity of the Reactionists
in Marseilles, one of their principal nests; secondly,
the complicity of Francis 11. in the conspiracy;
which has been denied; and thirdly, that Rome has
been, as it is, the centre of the movement. As to the
suggestion that Francis 11.. should place himself at
the head of his forces, it was all moonshine. He
thirst not do so in the early days of September,
1860, Nyhen by so doing he might have saved his
kingdom, and it was highly improbable that he
would do so now, when he had none but the off-
scourings of the nations to command. It has been
a safe policy to sit at ease in Rome, to weave the
web of conspiracy under the protection of the
Franco-Papal authorities, and send out hired assas-

ments selected from the Ist Glamorgan Artiltery
Volunteers. Captain Francis, having received
a communication from the Colonel Commanding
Artillery in South Wales, got his men together
in Swansea Castle, and proceeding thence by the
Oystermouth Railway, the men were marched
through the village over the beach and across the
two sounds to the fort, up the approach to which
they were obliged to single file. Arriving at the
rear of the fort, they were *received by Sergeant
1116Ghee, who is in charge. The commander then
said he had brought his men down and would place
them at the disposal of the sergeant gunner to re-
ceive lessons in heavy:gunnery. The portcullis
hoisted and doors opened, in marched forty men
and officers, and very soon all observed the force in
full ',action, some with ropes and. blocks, some ar-
ranging shot and shell, while others were placing
rammers and sponges ready for action. At this
time, the state of the tide favouring them, it was
thought there must have been between 200 and 300
people on the island. The fort being closed to all
but artillerymen, the spectators took up their posi-
tion on the galleries of the lighthouse, which
afforded an admirable view of all that was going on
within the fort. The First appeared to do their
work in a remarkably steady manner, and after a
drill or two they made the enormous guns (which
weigh five tons each) move as they pleased. The
tide making rapidly, the onlookers had to make a
hasty retreat, leaving the artillerymen still at work.
After finishing, the corps were complimented by
the sergeant instructor.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,--In your impression of the 18th inst. yen are pleased
to refer to a speech of mine at Colchester on Wednesday
last, and, in reference to the new education minute, to com-
ment on my "pious fear," that it will combine with the
grant of State money the minimum of religious education
and the maximum of injustice to masters and teachers.
The words used by me on the occasion were these—" It
combines a minimum grant of State money and a minimum
amount of religious education, with the maximum of injus-
tice to masters and teachers"—thus suggesting a third and
material point for parliamentary criticism next session, viz.,
the reduction, at any price, of the State money grant,
which I conceive to have been the primary and main ob-
ject in view of the framers of this objectionable minute.
Yours, &c.,

PHILIP 0. PAPILLON.

Highness Prince Louis of Hesse arrived on Saturday morn-
ing about five o'clock, at the terminus of the London and
North-Western Railway, in Euston square, attended by
his Gentlemen in Waiting, Baron Westerweller, from a
visit to her Majesty at Balmoral. A Royal carriage was in
waiting, which conveyed the Prince from the terminus to
the London-bridge station. His Highness, attended by
Baron Westerweller, left London by an early train on the
South-Eastern Railway, en route to Germany.
Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Cam-
bridge and the Princess Mary have returned to Cambridge
