LONDON, Saturday, Feb l3, 1858
| The Times says the India bill merely embodies in
few and obvious changes, the conclusions to
| which all men have been rapidly approaching as
often as they have had occasion to deplore the
cumbrous machinery and tardy operations of our
Indian government and the want of any real re
sponsbllity; it will remove useless agencies, in
terventions and delays. There is not shadow of
wrong-not man, woman child is the worse for
| the bill
The london Ne,cs was prepared to find the bill
entirely subyert all those constitutional principles
on which the safety of that empire has been hitherto
believed to depend; but it not prepared to learn
| the utter incapacity of Government to make out
even prinaa fdcie case for DESTROYING the double
Government at any time, and much less for DESTROY
| ing 1t at period OF great popular excitement
While the country itself is still rent by internal CON
vulsions the most important measure ever fallen to
Parliament in our time has been incubated in haste
IN ignorance, in cOntusiOn and, instead of solid and
substantial facts and weghty arguments the pro
FOUNDER of this dangerous and destructive scheme
throws out couple of fatulent claptraps and
thinks that he has convinced the nation of the wis
dom of his perilous design.
The Chronicle says there is every prospect of
protracted discussion but at present there are no
indications as to its probable political party lean
ings Monday will supply this deficiency BY dis
closing the line to be adopted by the opposition
leaders.
The Herald thinks, if any charge be needed, it
should be much less violent one. The blow aimed
by Government at the East India Company will pro-
badly recoil on themselves.
The second leader of The London Times is on the
Government of India and Lord Canning's letter,
which The Times considers a valid defence to the
most popular charges against him.
The third article is on recruiting for the army
For the last five months the recruits attested have
averaged very little short of 1000 month for the
infantry OF the line alone and 1000 for all arms of
the service together. These numbers would repre-
sent within fraction, total levy of TO- 900 troops
n year-a rate amply sufficient, if maintained to
answer all demands upon u.s. Our machinery may
be somewhat defective. 1t would probably be of
material service if persons of influence in our cOun
ties would again bestr themselves, and let the la
boring classes know, from authority above suspic-
ion, that really good treatment, and in many cases
vastly improved condition. awaits lad on enter
ing the army. The machinery would be more efec-
tive, too, if it permanent, and if some species
| of organization preserved, which might be
eXerted with more less activity according to the
nature of the demand.
| The NeCs thinks our Government ought to take
stand against the NeapOitan Government in tho
! affair Of the Cagliari steamer.
The HerdLd says the accusations and criticisms Of
Mr.. Roebuck last night, afford painful contrast to
the temperate, yet dignifed, language of Lord
| Derby.
FRANCE.
Accounts received in Paris state that more troops
are required in China, to carry out the intended
! operations.
No more addresses from the army are to be pub
lished in the UOniteur, other paper publish
| ed in France
One of the Paris correspondents of lie Nord saws
that the military addresses in the Moniteu have
been the only manifestations of feeling against Eng
! land on the part of the French colonies; some of
| those hOnOred with the Order of Bath having ex-
pressed a desire to return their decorations. The
Minister of War; according to lie Nord speedily put
Il stop to these demonstrations.
| 1t is stated by the Paris correspondence of the
Independence that, at the interview between the
new Minister of the Interior and the principal Off
GERS in his department, he announces that his ap-
pointment was not provisional but that it was made
to carry into effect the plans of the Emperor and
that those who could not give their entire support
to the new policy of the government had better re-
sign their posts
| RUSSIA.
The journal de Frankfort states that the CONNER
cal crisis in st. Petersburg caused several failures
with liabilities ranging from so 900 to 200 900 silver
rubies. Stieglitz Co. are reported to have lost
largely, and by way of compensation it is said the
Emperor has permitted them to export one million
gold imperias, the ten per cent. export duty being
suspended in their favor. 1t seems propable that
these particulars involved great exaggeration.
The correspondent of The Times states that ac-
cordng to letters from Odessa, the number of Rus
sian sailors in the Black Sea is not to be diminished
as the vessels OF war not to exceed a certain
number The Grand Duke Constantine has given
| orders that all sailors who We're in the service of
the Government shall be sent on board merchant
men, and be SUBJECT to the discipline BEFORE
and have the same pay; and inder that they may
not forget any part of their duties, mercantile
| sells are to carry guns. When Russia has completed
her fleet of mercantile steamers in the Black Sea-
its neutrality will exist only in name.
1t is again stated that Schamyl had submitted to
Russia, but lie Nord which refraned at the time
from publishing the above news states that the last
intelligence from Circassia does not confirm the
submission of Schamyl. The result of the last ope-
ratons of the Russian troops was the occupation OF
the plateau of Tehechtna, where they had driven
out the Crcassians Schamyl, with small number
of his band who remained faithful, had found a re-
fuge in the remote gorges of the central chain of
the Caucacus.
