by the Great Western Company, they should do it
without their assistance.—(Hear, hear.) The report
would show the proprietors what the directors in-
tended to do. They proposed to proceed with the
line to Gloucester, and from Swansea to Fishguard—
(Hear, hear)—with the utmost possible rapidity, and
that might be easily done by issuing debentures ; and
when they had finished their line they would then be
in a condition to call upon the Great Western Com-
pany to perfornf.theirs.—(Hear.) The Chairman
concluded by moving the adoption and reception of the
report.
The motion having been seconded,
Mr. WILLIAMS, M.P. for Lambeth, thought if the
directors of the company had acted with energy this
company would not have been in the state it now
was ; and he believed it was only in consequence of
the great perseverance of their chairman that they
were in the condition they were at present.—(Hear,
hear.) He recommended to the proprietors that the
directors should set about at once completing the line
to Fishguard, which he had no doubt would be highly
profitable to the company, and might he carried out
within the engineer's estimate.—(Hear.)
The Rev. Mr. SPENCER, of Bath, thought that the
speech of the chairman of the Great Western Com-
pany was an insult to the South Wales Company,
end considered the conduct of the chairman of the
Great Western Company and of tte directors most
ungentlemanly.
The CHAIRMAN called the rev. gentleman to order,
and begged Lf him to retract the expression ungen-
tlemanly.
Mr. SPENCER declined doing so, and, at the desire
of the chairman, sat down.
After some further considerable and rather angry
discussion the report was adopted.
Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, who
having responded, the meeting broke up.

RUSSIA.

The S Petersburgh offi, jo•irnal of the 17th
contains a magniloquent account of a victory said to
have been obtained by the Russian General, BELOARD,
over the Lesginen tribe in the Caucasus. We are
inclined to doubt the truth of this statement, inas-
much as while General BELG A RD states the Lesginen
loss to have been 320 killed, 600 wounded, and 87
prisoners, out of a force of 4,000 men, he declares his
own loss to have been two men killed, and nineteen
wounded; he at the same time states that the Lesginens
occupied a position almost impregnable when he at-
tacked them ; and yet he would have the world be-
lieve that he drove 4,000 men from an almost im-
pregnable position with a loss to himself of two killed
and nineteen wounded only.
Orders have been given for the Russian army in
Poland to advance along the Prussian frontier about

GERMANY.

A letter from Frankfort of the 13th says :—" All
Germany resembles a camp. The National Assembly
of Frankfort had decreed that the governments
should carry the armed Germanic force up to nine
hundred thousand men : the Princes who had refused
to obey the resolutions of the Assembly have executed
this with great zeal. The consequence is that it is
not Austria alone which has imposing forces under
arms, but all other countries of Germany, especially
Prussia and Bavaria, have the same."
" Austria and Prussia," says a letter from Frank-
fort, " are in negotiation for a prolongation of the
powers of the Central Federal Commission of Ger-
many, which were fixed to expire on Ist May."
The Prince of Prussia, who is at present staying
at Frankfurt, had a narrow escape a few nights ago ;
he fell asleep and forgot to extinguish his light,
whereby his bed curtains caught fire. He was awoke
by the flames, and was rescued by his valet-de-
chambre, who sustained some slight injuries.

The Prussian G-oyernment has ordered that all
public functionaries shall take the oath of fidelity to
the constitution.

According to the Berlin correspondent of the Inde-
pendance of Brussels, who writes on the 15th, the
Prussian Government does not now think of conclud-
ing peace with Denmark, but is only anxious to es-
tablish a provisional government in the Duchies
which shall be more satisfactory than that which now
exists.

The Assembly of States of Brunswick, on the lith,
unanimously resolved to pass to the order of the day
on a communication from the Government relative to
the Convention between Austria and Prussia, for the
establishment of a Central Federal Commission fur
Germany.

TO THE SECRETARY OF THE
BRADFORD REFORM ASSOCIATION.
Sir,—On Monday the 18th, the principal discus-
sion was on the Ministerial plan for the government
of the Colonies. Everybody seems raßant and
congratulatory, as on the appearance of a new-born
child. The point which particularly excites delight,
is the provision which after giving the Colonies con-
stitutions, gives them also the power, under cer-
tain terms, to alter them. It would be a painful
thing if it should turn out, that instead of the Co-
lonies being put in possession of good governments
with power to make them better, they had been put
in possession of bad ones, with power to make them
worse. I pray leave to note, however harili it may
appear on such a day of joy, that it is among possible
things that the whole may end, in the imperfect
governments given to the Colonies, manifesting their
imperfection by making changes for the worse, which
it would have been inconvenient for the Government
to propose.
On Tuesday the never-ending still-beginning sub-
ject of the Corn Laws was brought before the House
in the form of a demand for the removal of rates
and taxes pressing on the agricultural interest, and
payment of the amount out of the Consolidated Fund.
The attack displayed a curious mixture of ingenuity
and impolicy. Ingenuity, in trying to find allies
who should be interested in the proposed removals,
and impolicy in mixing the plan up with assurances
that there was a great deal more behind, and
this was only one step towards the complete
recovery of lost ground. Others on tlee same
side shared the rashness of the mover in this
respect ; and one Honourable Member fairly told you
of the manufacturing interest, that you had "robbed
the till." I revert to a comparison made to you
before. Some of the agriculturists are as incapable
of comprehending that you do not sin against heaven
and earth when you refuse to raise the price of
corn to eighty shillings at your expense, as
the Carolinian slave-owner is of understanding
that the negro does not break the eighth command-
ment by larcenously withdrawing his own body from
the master's grasp. But the national good sense is
fast growing over the wound, and every year there
will be less left of the scar. Nothing that comes
from the Free-Trade benches is half so good as what
comes from the other side. They would have been
far in advance of their present position, if
they could only have held their peace. But, like
drowning Foersons, they must struggle though they
go deeper for it. It might make a man think of the
days when he was younger, to hear the arguments
and the phrases, which years ago received their qui
etus among the audiences of the League.
The debate ended for the present in an adjourn.
ment, at twelve o'clock.
I am, fir, your obedient servant,
AN OLD REFORMER.

SPAIN.

The Herald() of Madrid of the 14th, referring to
reports that were current, and to observations thereon
in the Opposition press, declares positively that there
is not the slightest foundation that her Majesty's
interesting position had caused her to intimate that
she could not continue to discharge the duties of
royalty, and that a regency would consequently be
necessary. No such delicate question, says the
Hera/do, had ever been raised.

the afternoon,
,the trial is put off until the end of the

code other business would be proceeded with.

ITALY.

The Nazionale of Florence states that on the 9th
the Corso at Rome was suddenly invaded by a proces-
sion of persons, crying " Vive la Republica !" (that
day being the anniversary of the proclamation of the
Roman Republic), and that, before the police and mi-
litary force could arrest them, they disappeared as
suddenly as they had come. When night came, the
Corso being still filled with citizens, soldiers, and
sbirri, tricoloured Bengal fire was let off on all sides.
The military wanted to stop the seditious fires, but the
people prevented them. Some French officers were
heard to say, " The Romans celebrate the anniversary
of their Republic."

GREECE.

The overland mail from Malts, with dates from
that island to February 13, brings no later intelli-
gence from Greece, as the French mail from
Athens, due on the 11th, had not made its ap-
pearance, owing, no doubt, to the very boiste-
rous weather which has generally prevailed through-
out the Mediterranean. The Corfu Mail,
announces that the British have not taken possession
of Cervi and Sapienza ; these islands did not form
part and parcel of the pending claims. Some Greek
merchant vessels, detained at Patras by British
cruisers, had been carried into Corfu. Fresh tidings
have reached us of the French fleet having left Smyrna
for the Pineus, and been blown back to the Darda-
nelles.

The steamer Germania has arrived at Trieste with
dates from Athena to the Bth, Syra 6th, Corfu 10th,
Constantinople 2d inst., and Damascus 17th ult. The
situation of Greece was the same as by the last accounts.
The British vessels had seized about 30 small craft at
Spezia, Hydra, and Syra. The embargo extended as
far as Galaxida. The people were highly exasperated
against the English, and an outbreak was appre-
hended. A few small coasters had been allowed to
leave Syra, but two :Greek brigantines, which were
in that port, laden with: corn, and bound respectively
to Leghorn and Trieste, had been taken to Sala-
of the arrival of King.
Sala-
mina. The anniversary
O:ho in Greece had been celebrated with unusual en-
thusiasm. The French. squadron was still anchored
in the waters of Mytilene. It is believed the Greek
corvette Ludovic was there too. A French vessel
was stationed at Smyrna.. The Austrian schooner
Fenice, which was believed to be lost, had ar-
rived at Tenedos. Two Greek schooners had been
brought to Corfu. The conduct of England towards
Greece had produced an: unfavourabe impression. A

men were wounded, two dangerously, and the occur-
rence has caused a very great sensation at Innspruck.

OVERLAND MAIL

INDIA AND CHINA.
(From the Chronicle.)
We have received by extraordinary express advices
from Bombay to the 17th January, Calcutta to the
7th January, and China to the 29th December.
The news by the present mail is utterly devoid of
interest.
Both Dr. Hooker and Dr. Campbell have been re-
leased by the Sikkim Raja, and, from their narrative
of the circumstances connected with their capture, it
would appear that the conduct of the native authori-
ties towards them was of a most unprovoked and wan-
ton character.
On the morning of the 6tb, the ship Dartmouth
was burnt in Bombay harbour, as is believed, by in-
cendiaries.
