PARLIAMENTARY PAPER.

COALS, CINDERS, AND CULM.
These are accounts, moved for respectively by Mr. W.
Gibson Craig, Mr. 11. Hinde, and Mr. R. Hodgson, of
coals cinders, and calm, shipped coastways, and ex-
ported to foreign parts ; with the rates and amount of
duty charged thereon :—of coals exported from the
United Kingdom from the sth of January, 1828, to the
sth of January, 1842 ; and of coals shipped to foreign
countries in 1841, &c.

It appears therefrom, that the total quantities of coal,
cinders, and culm, so exported to foreign countries and
the British settlements abroad, amounted, altogether, to
1,848,294 tons, the gross total export duties which were
received thereon being 12,0151. ss. 6d.

The total quantities on coal brought coastways and
by inland navigation into the port of London during the
year 1841 amounted to 2,942,738 tons.

It further appears. that the total quantity of coals ex-
ported from the United Kingdom from the sth day of
January, 1828, to the sth day of January, 1842, was as
oars

AOMnsILSTRATLON OF JUSTECE
IN RUSSIA.
" Prince 'Trubetzkpi, of whose death some myst *-.--
rious accounts are given,' had at least no reason con -
nected with .iny pest fur destroying himself. Shortly
after the supposed insurrection in Samogitia, he watf,
appointed military commander there, and exercised-
military justengf with a severity which occasioned
ihr; being removed, and served as the first step for the
Tentswap of the Konarski investigation. What the
article. above alluded to says of Colonel Nasimoff
requires,
in order to judge it properly, a deeper in -
sight into,
our administration of justice. Russia
possesses,
.very voluminous book of laws, but n
settled jorisaktzon ; courts of law, but no judges who,
have studit4 been educated for office ; an d
informers; mom it serous than in the times of th e
Roman Emperors, tap: the place of public advocates.
Special commission; am. appointed for all the more
,
important criminal investis,ltims, generally under the
pc-e-son of note, and with
presidency of some military
out any judicial control. ussian employe who
wants to rise in office has I 1 thing better to do than..
set himself to the discovery of ahn ses and political
offences, as all these are reported d, rectlY to the
Emperor, and often help the discover&
to extraor-
dinary advancement ; all the more easily at. the same
time is the denunciation • believed. The .srs•,:' daiun-
ciatory insinuations are made by word tyf inc‘uth.
Then, in order to make further.. discoveries into the
supposed criminality, sums of money are 11c:waved,
to he used on journeys; secret investigationl,
,and
Then follow surprises by night, seimres.of papers,
arrests of the persons informed against. It is not u: vual
certainly for the. employe, from whom the first disc 13-
very proceeds, to'he a member of the commission
investigation appointed forthwith, b:-It the commission-
acts upon his advice. The informers' have free' in.
gress to all the secret transactions of the counnission,
and receive money.-for their maintenance (luring the
time, as well as for bringing up the neces'ary wit-

nesses.
" The system of, bribery is the only one 'which has
any chance with the witnesses for the defence, e.nd
they are consequently strict. At the same time,
.to
preserve the informer from any temptation of tl
kind, the law declares, that it he will hand in toct
the commission the bribe offered to him, he shall
receive it back in full as the reward of his disin-
terestedness. This - bribery, too, is received .as
evidence against the person accused as an actual
proof of his criminality. Since the Polish revo-
lution this_ horrible system of denunciation has 4,
carried everything before it, especially in the govern-
ments of Wilna, Grodno, and Bialystock. .A.con-
quered people alwayS remains a suspected enemy,
and it needs only a Suspicious temper in a ruler, to re-
suscitate all the misery that Dolgorucki's Humanity
had scarcely assuaged. It was in consequence of de-
nunciations of this 'kind that the present GoveTnort
General Mirkewitz' .again took up the investigation
long since ended by the execution of Konarski and
his associates. According to these denunciation s,•
the traitor had passed-the night in the house of such,
a one, and been long concealed in that of another. In
order to give more connexion to the whole matter,
it was made to form a part with a supposed secret
correspondence of certain Polish families with
their relations living in France as political re-
fugees. Professors, physicians, civil officers, and nobles,
all on a sudden vanished from among their family
circles to be left to languish in . unknown prisons.
Anxiety and terror fell upon the minds of all; the'
scourge of insulted legitimacy was the sceptre that
ruled the land. Doubts, however, it would seem,, be-
gan to arise in the Emperor's mind, especially a. s his
military Governor, instead of sending him pr
only announced to him continual arrests, end the con-
sequence was that -he sent his Adjutant-Col4
Nasimoff, to'Wilna, in order to have an eye upon. the
progress of these investigations. This active officer
and excellent man soon convinced himself of the want'
of all'fOundation for these denunciations. But any one
who at all knows how very marked are the distinc-
tions of -military rank in Russia, will easily con*re-
hend how little Colonel Nasimoff was able to effect. ill
opposition to the military .Governor and his judgt:s.,
With straightforward openness he laid the state
things before the'Emperor, and urged the necessity os"
sending to the spot some one still higher placed inv
rank. •In consequence of this advice, General.
Kawerin, formerly tutor to the Hereditary Grand-.
Duke, received the very honourable mission to do.
ustice at length to all parties according to truth. ,
After a very short time all'the prisoners were set at
liberty, without any exception ; and some (princi-
pally -the civil officers) received compensations for
.
their sufferings in money. Severe justice was exec.
cised upon all the members of the Commission, and ;-
very energetic reproof given to General Mirka.witz•
