HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS have Effectually Cured a Tumour in the Neck.—John Mason, residing in Frogmore-street, Bristol, had been in ill health for years, and always complained of a soreness in the neck he was seen by several medical gentlemen, but none were success- ful in affording him relief. However, after some time, a large tumour formed under his lelt ear, from which he suffered intensely, and tried remedy after remedy without obtaining any benefit, until he made use of Holloway's Ointment and Pills. These wonderful medicines soon re- duced the tumour, and effectually cured it, and he is now in the enjoyment of the most robust health. We are happy to quote the following interesting infor- mation from Du Barry's Report on cures without medicioe by Du Barry's Food :—" Eight years' dyspepsia, nervous- ness, debility, with cramps, spasms and nausea for which my servant had consulted tbe advice of many, have been eifectually removed by DIl Barry's Revalenta Arabics .Food, in a very short time.

CARDIFF POLICE.—SATURDAY. [Before his Worship the Major, David Lewis, Esq.] Emma Alford, Sarah Jenkins, and Timothy Desmond, alias II Tim Cod»er," were charged with attempting to rob Joseph Weaver, one of their companions. Super- intendent Stockdale stated the whole of the four were convicted thieves, and had only just been liberated from gaol. When the parties were taken into custody, Weaver desired to be locked up with them. By the evidenre it appeared that on Friday night he accompanied these girls to the fields between the Dumballs and Penarth bridge, and whilst there they made an attempt to rob him of 25s., calling others to their assistance. This morning the prosecutor did not appear. The three pri- soners were discharged. William Gibson, of Thomas-street, a boy about ten or eleven years of age, was charged with being on the Taff Vale Railway lor an unlawful purpose. White, one of the company's police force, proved seeing the defendant on one of the trucks, throwing off coal, and afterwards caught him and brought him to the station-house. Superintendent Stockdale stated that the defendant's father was in Swansea gaol, and that his mother was all abandoned woman on the town he (the superintendent) had procured the boy admission to the Union, where, however, he remained but a very short time. In answer to the Bench, the boy said his reason for leaving the Union was because his mother had taken him out. The Mayor spoke feelingly as to the unfortunate condition in which the boy was placed, and ordered him to be dis- charged. Patrick Barry, of Stanley-street, a boy about 1.5 or 16 years of age, was charged with breaking glass in the Swansea Arms beer-house, Bute-street, kept by Mr. David Jones. Defendant was one of a number of boys who engage in the dangerous recreation of throwing stones, and it was found that one of the stones which the defendant tbtew smashed the square of glass in ques- tion. He was discharged with a caution. Robert Sherrin, hawker, 22, Bridge-street, was charged with hawking earthenware, in Bute-street, without a license. This information was laid by a William Sherrin, a cousin of defendant, the reason for which did not tran- spire; but as he had no wish to press the charge, pro- vided the defendant promised to procure a license, the latter was discharged on that promise. Dr. Price applied to the Bench to lay an information for perjury against John Morgan, one of the witnesses in the case of Price v. Clive, heard before the Judge of the County Court, Thomas Falconer, Esq., on the pre- vious day. The Bench told Mr. Price that on his mak- ing the necessary affidavit a warrant woutd be granted. Ann Wiiley, a girl from Whitmore-lane, was sent to gaol for one month for having been drunk and disorderly, and for using indecent and profane language in Bute. street, on Friday evening. MOJjpAY. [Before the Mayor and C. C. Williams, Esq.] Sarah Pennar was charged with assaulting Martha Mumdar. The parties were married women, living in Gilees-court, Taff-street. By the evidence it appeared that a disturbance arose between them through their children quarrelling, on Sunday se'nnight, and on the following day, Monday, blows wete the result. Com- plainant swore that defendant struck her first, and that I she did not return the blow, but merely pushed her away. A witness who was called said that she saw de- fendant strike the complainant four times. Mr. Bird v appeared for the defence, and, in the course of his address, said that it appeared a mutual quarrel, and the justice of the case would be met by being dismissed, each party paying their own costs. The magistrates thought differently, and fined the defendant 10s., includ- ing costs, or 14 days' imprisonment. William Wyatt, the east turnpike-gate keeper, was charged with having been drunk, and having broken the guard-bed in the station-house. P.C. Shore, 27, deposed that he found the defendant near the Cardiff Arms Hotel, about 10 o'clock on Saturday night, quite incapable of walking. Superintendent Stockdale proved, that when he became sensible, he amused himself by breaking up the guard-bed, doing damage to the amount of 2s. On a former occasion be broke the door down. Fined 5s. and the expenses. Thomas Samuel, of 7, Rodney-street, an old offender, and John Mahoney, of Thomas-street, both aged men, were charged with fighting in Bute-street, at a quarter to two o'clock on Thursday afternoon. The case was proved. Samuel having been here repeatedly before, (on the last occasion be was sent to gaol for two months for beating his wife,) was now fined 5s. and costs. Mahoney was discharged with a caution. Jeremiah O'Connell, cabinet maker, admitted having been drunk, and incapable of taking care of himself. Superintendent Stockdale said that he had been found in Bute Dock-road, in a state of insensibility, so much so that every one thought he was dying. A surgeon was obliged to be sent for, and it was not until he had been put into a warm bath, and considerable care had been taken of him, that he revived. Had he not been dis- covered, death certainly would have been the result. Fined 5s. and costs. CAUTION TO Boys PLAYING PITCH-AND-TOSS. —John Splan, of Mill-lane, a boy about fourteen years, of age, was charged with playing at pitch and toss, on the pre- vious day, Sunday. The Mayor severely admonished him, and then ordered him to be liberated, stating that in future he should punish all boys brought before him, for this offence, with the utmost rigour of the law, as he regretted to hear it was very much on the increase. William Harry, a young man employed at Mr. Phil- lips's brewery, was charged with having been drunk and disorderly. P.C. Grant deposed that yesterday, between one and two o'clock, he was on duty in Bute-street, and was fetched to the Wellington public-house, Hayes, to the defendant. He found him there tipsy, with all his clothes off except his trowsers, striking at every one who came near him. He struck at witness, who could do nothing with him, and assistance was obliged to be ob- tained before he could be taken to the station house. De- fendant I was not drunk, was I ? (appealing to his father, a respectably-dressed man). Father: Yes, you was- you was mad. Son Oh. very well, thst'* all you know about it. The Major: You are fined 20s., including costs, or in default of payment, to be sent to gaol for one month. Defendant I'll take a month. The father paid the money, whereupon the son flew in a great rage, and was obliged to be conducted out of court by a con- stable. John Mack, of Pendoylan-street, was charged with assaulting John Endell, a labourer. Complainant de- posed that on Thursday evening last, he was in Mary Ann-street, when he was met by a man, who asked him how he was he replied. Pretty well." ..ad defendant numa up —M*I airuca him, and another knocked him down. A mob afterwards gathered round him, and he was struck on the hand with a grafting tool. P.C. Bashan deposed: About half-past eight o'clock on Thursday night he ap- prehended the defendant in the Brickmaker's Arms, beer- house, David-street; he came with him quietly until they came to Millicent-street, by which time a mob of between three and four hundred were gathered round finding so many of his companions around him, he swore be would not go further, unless he had the complainant with him; to pacify him, the complainant joined him but he had not gone twenty yards, before defendant struck witness a violent blow in the mouth, and began to kick right and left; he called to the mob in Irish, and they rescued him witness succeeded in re-capturing him, but the mob took him off again witness succeeded in laying hold of him a third time, and on that occasion forced him up a passage, where he held him until more constables came. It ultimately took eighteen to convey him to the station-house, the mob was so great. In defence, he said, I've been a teetotaller for eighteen months, and during that time have only drank one pint per day. I hope you'll forgive me, this is the first time I have been before you." Fined 1:3, including costs, or in default of payment, two month's imprisonment. James and William Searle, two powerful men, living in Christina-street, were charged with a most unmanly and cowardly assault on a woman. Mary Ann Bennett, a young girl, deposed Last night, between nine and ten o'clock, these men were at our house—Sarah Morgan's house, in Sophia-street; I went to the cook-shop at the corner of the street, and when I returned, I heard a girl in our house crying murder;" I asked what was the matter, when William Searle struck me; I saw him then pull Sarah Pyke by the hair of the head another girl, Sarah Gratrex, inquired what was the matter, and he pushed her down; James Searle kicked her when she was down, and she became insensible she is not able to get out of her bed this morning. Superintendent Stockdale said he had further witnesses to produce, and they would prove that the last-mentioned girl was afterwards kicked down the cellar by the defendants, and very much in- jured thereby. The prisoners were remanded until Thursday, in the hope that the girl Gratrex would be able to appear. THE LLANDAFF HIGHWAY BOARD. The monthly meeting of the above board (No. 2, of the Cardiff Union) was held on Saturday last in the board-room of the WorUiouse. at Canton, in tbe vicinity of this town. William Plains, Esq., chairman, presided; the vice-chair- man, E. W. David, Elq., was also present, and several magistrates and guardians. The Chairman said, at their last meeting they had ordered the surveyor to call upon the old parish surveyors for the balances of the rates, as he could not repair the roads with- out funds. He would now ask the surveyor the result. The Surveyor stated that be had received instalments from all the parishes in the district except three, amounting in the whole to X120, sixty of which he bad received from one parish. The parishes which had not paid, he believed, would pay that day. The Chairman said he found that the other board (No. 1. of the Cardiff Union) had made an order that the workmen should be continued on the roads, and he would suggest that the same course should be adopted on their roads, otherwise they would get into very bad repair. The Vice-chairman said, he thought the surveyor should be very cautious iu employing paupers, to see that they did their work, because it had been said that they had been paid wages for doinfc nothing. He did not mean to say that they should not be employed, but thought if they could be employed at ta<k work," it would be more satisfactory. The Chairman said, iu his parish, the principal inha- bitants had agreed to meet ouce a month to inspect the roads, with the view of assisting the surveyor, by throwing out suggestions for him to act upon, and he thought if the parishes generally did not assist in a similar manner, the roads would get into a bad condition. The roads in St. Fagans were very bad; be never saw roads so near lime stone in a worse state. E. David, Esq., said, St. Fagans had been paying their parish surveyor f20 per year. f 7 )5 The Vice-chairman said—would it not be well for their surveyor to see the parishioners, and ask them to render him assistance as suggested by the chairman? Mr. David said-ttioir surveyor being responsible to the board for the roads being kept in repair, they must act very cautiously in that matter, otherwise they would be remov. ing tbe responsibility from him, and they would get into difficulties. The Chairman said he thought it wotold be impossible for their surveyor to set about all the roads immediately; be eoosidered it would be better if the farmers, in each parish, held meetings as he had described, and make their reports to their surveyor. He did not mean by that to remove any responsibility from him, or deprive him of any power he might possess. A conversation ensued relative to what steps should be taken supposing any parish refused to make a rate. The Chairman said he had no doubt the Court of Queen's Bench would issue a mandamus, but that would be a very expensive proceeding. The Vice-Chairman said, where roads were in bad repair and the parish provided no funds to repair it, the Act gave very summary powers; their surveyor could do the woik and recover the amount before two magistrates. This pro- ceeding would compel them to make a rate in self-defeoce. Mr. E. W. David further stated that he had recently been into Carmarthenshire, and in one parish he found the new Act had worked admirably well; where the rates formerly were Is. 6d. in the pound, they were now Öd., and the roads much improved. In many cases formerly the farmers and others would get quit of their rates by going to work upon the road and charging Is. 6d. per day tor it. R. Bassett, Esq., Chairman of No. 1 district, said he thought it would be advisable to place the parish of Peter. atone iu the No. 2 district, and St. Fagans in No. 1. It would be more convenient for their surveyor. The Surveyor of the No. 2 district in reply to a question said he would prefer St. Fagans parish to remain in bis dis- trict as it at present stood. The Vice-Chairman laid he thought it would be time enough for them to make the transfer when their surveyor changed his residence. Mr. Bassett stated that he believed it was in contempla- tion when the County [toad, Board were forming the dis- tricts le hav* placed the parishes as he now wished them, The Chairman said the subject covld bf taken iota sen- stderatMn 41 11 future period, 1 -=-=- The Surveyor reported that he had twelve men at work, and that they found their own tools. A conversation en-ued as to whether the men would not do more work if tools were found them by the board. Se- veral suggestions were nude-one that rakes and wheel- barrows should be found them. another that they should find their own too's and that the board should keep them in repair. It wnfaid, if the b->ard found the tools, that care would not be taken of them as if they found them them«elve.«. It was ultimately agreed that ttle surveyor -hould use his own discretion in the matter. The meeting lUen separated.

TRINITY CHAPEL, WOMANBY-STREET, CARDIFF. TO THE EDITOR OF THE CARDIFF AND MERTHTK GUARDIAN SIR,— A report is generally spread through the town, ihat the above chapel is to be sold, and that a new chapel in lieu of it is to he built near the Bute Doeks, to which the present congregation is going to remove,—such a report is entirely without foundation. It would not be worth one's while to take notice of such an unfounded rumour, or take the trouble lo contradict such a statement, were it not that several persons lately have declined to take sittings in the chapel, on account of such a report. The present congregation feel happy in their place of worship,—that there is a good attendance, that the debt is nearly extinguished, that the greatest concord prevails, that the church increases in numbers, and that there is every prospect that soon we shall have to add galleries to the chapel.-Yours very truly, THOMAS DAVIES, WILLIAM EDMONDS, WILLIAM LEWIS.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.—FRIDAY. The Bishop of St. David's and the Earl of Harroby pre- sented petitions against the sale of intoxicating liquors on Sunday. The Bishop of St. Asaph presented a petition against the grant to Maynooth. Earl Grey gave notice of his intention to postpone his motion on the Vienna Conferences from Monday until Friday ot-xt. Lord Panmure then proceeded to explain the changes which it was proposed to make in the administration of the affairs of the army. These changes were not such as to require any legislative enactment, being made by the exer- cise of Her Majesty's prerogative, but the statement of them would not be "unacceptable to the House. It was proposed, in the first place, to do away with the Master- General and the Board of Ordnance altogether, and to place the management of that department under the supreme 'direction of the Secretary of State for War, under whom wiiuM be appointed a chief civil officer, who was to be a member of the House of Commons, and wlio?e uuty it would be to move, in one combined estimate, the whole annual expenditure of the army, and to be responsible for all returns connected with the civil administration of that branch of Her Majesty's forces. Under this scheme all the bead* of department* at present existing, such M the In- spector-General of Fortifications, the Director-General of Artillery, and others, would continue to exist, to discharge their several duties as civil officers, and he had no doubt that, though there might be some small difficulties of detail at first, in a little time the new system would work weli. Such were the main features of the proposed scheme, which, though it might not satisfy the extreme detires of some ardent military reformers, would, he was inclined to think, be found to have I:one far enough. Lord Ellenborough wax glad to hear that the proposed changes were not to be introduced by legislative enactment, because it was desirable that the same facility of alteratiou enjoyed by the noble lord should be reserved for future Secretaries for War. The difficulty in abolishing the Master- Generalship for the Ordnance seemed to him to lie in the fact, that when it might be expected that the Secretary for War and his Under-Secretary 'would be civilians, it might be desirable to have an unbiassed military adviser, who would have been found in the Master-General of the Ordnance. As for the other alterations proposed by the noble lord, time alone could show whether they were im- provements. He hoped, also, that the Government would lay before the House a memorandum, showing at one view all the alterations which it was proposed to carry into effect. MONDAY. The Charitable Trusts Bill was referred to a select com- mittee. The Scotch Intestacy Bill was read a third time and parsed. Some other business was also despatched, after which their Lordships adjourned. TUESDAY. Lord Grey, in reply to Lord Lyndhurst, intimated his intention of bringing forward his motion respecting the Vienna Conferences on Friday next, unless any sufficient reason should be adduced against it. Some other business was then despatched, after which their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COM MONS.-FBIDU. Mr. H. A. Bruce, before putting the question of which be bad given notice, begged to make an explanatory statement. Of the twelve judges of Ireland, he was informed that no less than six were, from various causes, unable to discharge their duties (hear, hear). Three of these learned judges were called to the bar before the commencement of the present century. Oue of the three was called in the year 1795-sixty years aRo-and had besides suffered for three years from the total deprivation of his sight (hear, hear). The other two were called respectively in tbe years 1797 and 1798, and were. from infirmity, frequently obliged to absent themselves from their duties on circuit and at nisi prius. A fourth learned judge was called to the bar so late as 1806-0nly 49 years ago—and was probably, not much above 70 years of age; but bis comparative youth va. unfortunately counterbalanced by extreme ill-health, so that during the last term, he had only been able to sit for one or two day)*. A fifth learned judge had been, on account of ill-health, absent for six months in Spain, The sixth, Baron Richards, was so occupied by attendance at the Encumbered Estates Court, that he could rarely give any time to his regular judicial duties. On the last circuit no less than three barristers officiated as substitutes for as many absent judges. Under these circumstances, he felt himself justified in asking the Secretary for Ireland whether he was aware that a large proportion of the Irish judges were incapacitated by age, and othrr infirmities, for the lull and regular dischatge of their duties, and, if so, whether the Goveiumeot intended to apply any remedy to so serious an evil ? (loud cries of hear, hear). Mr. Horsman said that the circumstance to which his honourable triend had alluded, h«d been very ftequentlv under the consideration of the Government. The only official knowledge they bad of it was, that tome of the judges who were unable to go to a circuit appointed a sub- stitute, who was paid out of the consolidated fund. He could only slate that the subject had been, and still was, under the consideration of the Government (laughter). Mr. Bright asked the right hon. geutleman if he would turn his attention to what was said on the subject in the report of the Official Salaries Commhtee, before any new judges were appointed in Ireland. Air. Horsman intimated that he would do ao. Mr. French, premising that the Earl of Dundonald wis prepared by the end of June, if his plan was adopted, with- out fee or reward, to demolish every Russian fortress in the Baltic, engaging that the entire expense to the country should not come up to £200,000, enquired when Lord Palmerston would be prepared to give an answer to the Earl, whether his plan, and his personal services in carrying it into execution, woutd or would not be accepted by the Government. Lord Palmerston replied that be was not prepared to tell the Earl of Dundooald when he could give an answer, Yes or No." Mr. Fergus. in pursuance of notice, called attention to the late Captain Christie, and inquired of Mr. Layard whether be had received certain letters fiom Captain Christie's re- lations, and what were the answers he had given. Mr. Layard, with considerable warmth, vindicated him- self from any implied charge of injustice or unfairness towards the deceased officer, against whose private character he had nothing whatever, he said, to allege. Sir J. Pakington expressed his deep regret at the course taken by Mr. Layard on this subject, and at the want of precision and care .with which he ventured upon these charges. Mr. Bright thought Mr. Layard had been treated with rather less generosity and fairness than was characteristic of the House. Sir J. Graham observed that the character of Mr. Layard was not alone at stake; a debt of justice was due to the memory of a gallant man. No transaction bad for a long time given him such deep pain. His fear was that be had yielded somewhat too much to clamour. Upon enquiry, he found that two faulty only were charged against Captain Chriatie connected with bit dutieo-one, as to placing the transports outside the harbour of Balaklava the other, the sending the Turkish troops to Balaklava, instead of Eupa- toria. Instead of handing over Captain Christie to the Sebastopol Committee, be had thought it more just and infinitely better to submit the conduct of the gallaut officer to a constituted tribunal of his brother officers; and he directed that he should be tried by a court-martial. He had reason to believe that the circumstances of hit being superseded and ordered to be tried, coupled with accusa- tion. made in that house so disparaging to his character, had broken the heart of a gallaut man. He believed that what Mr. Layard bad said in that house was unjust and inaccurate, and that it had the wont effect upon the health and feelings of Captain Christie. The lesson, he added, ought not to be thrown away as to future charges. Mr. Roebuck said it appeared from what Sir James had just stated that the charges against Captain Christie were, that his conduct had conduced to the loss of the Prince, and that, instead of sending the troopa to Eupatoria, he sent them to Balaklava; and that Captain Clu iltie bad broken his heart, not on account of anythiog said in that house, but because he had been superseded, and ordered to be tried by a court-martial. Who ordered this? The right hon. barouet. All that Mr. Layard had said was, that Captain Christie waa an old man, and, from his age, unfit for his heavy duties. After a few remarks the subject dropped. In reply to a question by Mr. Otway, Lord Palmerston said a certain number of prisoners—Poles and Russians— bad been taken in the Baltic, and the former having ex- pressed a desire to join a corps of Polee now in the Turkish service, commanded by a Pole, they were sent out at the expense of the British Government, and furnished with arm* to be enrolled in the Turkish service. With these Poles, some Polish emigrants, desirous of entering the ame service, were likewise sent. Mr. Napier called attention to the recent nomination and appointments to the practical class at Woolwich, which provoked a thort desultory discussion, at the close of which the motion for adjournment was agreed to. The adjourned debate on the question of going into com- mittee upon the Education (Scotland) BiU was resumed by The Earl of Dalkeith, who seconded and supported the amendment of Mr. C. Bruce, that the committee be in- structed to divide the bill into two parts. Mr. Cowan supported the bill, and hoped that the House would deal in a spirit of conciliation with a measure which he felt would be a lever to change the ttaiut of the great mass of the people in Scotland. Sir G. Montgomery opposed the bill, on the grounds that it provided no security for religious teaching, and would break up a system that had worked well. Mr. Mackie spoke in favour lof the amendment, and against the bill. Lord Duncan reminded the House that they were not discussing the second reading of the bill, but whether it should be divided—in other words, cut to pieces. He read official returns, showing the vast number of criminals utterly ignorant even of reading, and asked whether educa- tion could be in a satisfactory state under the existing sys- tem. The object of this bill was uot to exclude, but to secure, religious teaching, by removing the obstacle op- posed by sectarian differences, while it left the parochial schools as much as possible upon their present, fouti lig. Sir A. Campbell said, the question being whether the present system should be abolished, it should be shown that the parochial schools were ou a faulty system, and that the new schools would be upon a better sysiern, which bad not been done. Mr. Pollard-Urquhart supported the >11, which he con- sidered waa urgently required by the present circumstance* of Scotland. Mr. Smollett opposed the bill, because it contained no adequate security lor the maintenance of the religious cha- racteroftbe schools, and for religious instruction there He should vote. he said, for the amendment. Mr. Bowyer noticed the operation of the bill upon Ro. man Catholics and non-Presbyterians, hy the omission ot the denominational clause. The former, especially, could not separate religious from secular educatiou, so that the bill would be exclusively Presbyterian. Mr. Scott disputed the statistical data upon which the Lord-Advocate had founded his argument in favour of the bill, and called upon English members not to aid in the overthrow of an ancient system, providing a sound and cheap education, in favour of a new-fangled and untried one, which would supersede local control, and dry up the sources of private support. Lord Elcho, after appealing to Mr. Stirling's bill aq an admission that further mellru of education were required for the people of Scotland, called the attentiou of English members to the bearing and effect of the amendment, i which was an attempt, he said, by a side-wind to get rid 01 the vote of that House on the principle of the bill, which sought to banish the evils of a denominational education and to diffuse the benefits of a united education. lie ad- mitted that this advantage ought not to be purchased 111 rudeij OTerthrowtoa; the parochial school*, tyjs -■- did not do. The effect of the amendment he proceeded to show would be fatal to the principle of this measure, and he replied to the arguments urged in its support. Mr. BUckburn thought that, as the bill, by the confes- sion of the L >rd-Advocate was to cairy out two objects, it would be much more convenient and beueficial to divide it into two bill., The existing system, under which the schools depended upon the church, had been, he observed, must successful, and no party in Scotland asked for this measure. Mr. Laing pointed out the incompatibility of the amend- ment wllh the principle of the bill, which was to sever the intimate connexion between the established ctiuicb of Scot- land, which had ceased to be the church of the nation, and the parochial schools. An urgent practical necessity for schools to meet the wants of the country, *nd, as it was 1 impossible to adhere to the old system, the bill very pro- perly excluded a test and the control of the Presbytery in the new ochoolq, but, being founded upon a it did not apply to the parochial schools under the old! system The Lord-Advocate made a few observations in reply, to objections to the bill and upon the questions raised byal the amendment, dwelling upon the mischievous results of*5 cutting the bill in two. He denied that the parochiaP' school" belonged to the established church of Scotland r they belonged to the nation. His proposition was this— that, Scotland being the only part 01 the united kingdon ripe for a common system of education, it shuuid be bui1!P( upon thefootilllr ofa common faith. 101 Mr. Serjeant Shee inquired the intentions of the Governna ment with reference to the Roman Catholic schools i"P Scotland. °1l Lord Palmerston replied that the bill made no chance the condition of Roman Catholics or Episcopalians Scotland; but if the question referred to any intention the Commilteetlf Privy Council to alter the present sysll of the existing grant* to Roman Catholic schools in So land, ho answered that this formed no part of the measu and the question must be open to the Government and t Committee of Privy Council. After some remarks by Mr. Iladfield, in opposition the bill, the House divided, when the original motion v carried by 149 to 142; and the House went into cominitti but the Chairman was immediately ordered to report pi gress, not to sit again till after the Whitsun liolydays. The House then resolved itself into committee upon t Militia ( No. 2) Bill, the clause* of which were agreed with amendments, and the addition of new clauses. The Hou.e adjourned at t o'ctock until Monday. MONDAY. On a notice of motion by Mr. Roebuck, relating to late Captain Christie, Sir J. Graham took the opportunity of explaining error which he said he had committed, (and which pointed out by Mr. Layard in a letter published in Timet of Monday), and the causes of that error. The ( reparation he could make to Mr. Layard, he added, this error was, to take the earliest opportunity of mal this explanation. anll expressing his regret. With res to that portion of Nlr. Layaid's letter, in which he at that he (Sir JaID.) had not hesitated to state, calmly deliberately, that which be ought to have known, of his knowledge, to be absolutely talse," he left it to the HI he said, having been a member for 37 years, to say whe he was capable of a deliberate attempt to impose upoi House what he knew to be untrue. Mr. S. Herbert, in anticipation of the motion of v notice had been given by Mr. Uibson, said he wish put an inquiry to Lord Palmerston, upon the answ which would depend his own course upon that motic well as that of other members. He found, in the prd of April 21, a paragraph, stating that Count Buol dit consider the different modes of solution exhaustedl considered it especially the ta.k of Austria to loor means of accommodation; that he hoped, thereforet the Conferences would meet again as soon as anys members sboutd have any new propositions to make. 11 reference to this paragraph he put a series of questiai reply to which Lord Palmerston said, her Majesty's Government (It consider all the modes of solution of the question wit- hausted; that the conferences, though suspended, we)t finally closed, but would be ready to assemble upqy proposition being made likely to lead to a satisfacte- sult; and that her Majesty's Government would feto be their duty to give the most favourable considtn to any proposition coming from Austria, with the iof bringing the war to an bonourable and satisfactoryii- nation. Mr. Gladstone observed, that on the 26th of Aprre had been a further protocol, in which a second proton by Russia was met by the representatives of Ausind France by strong objections, but they, at the sanne, declared that it contained elements or materials for )er discussion; but the British Plenipotentiary (Lordst- morland) stated that his instructions were extfcd. Under these circumstances, Mr. Gibson, be thougras entirely justified in believing that an absolute tero(on was put to the negotiations, and that he might justl}«aI to the House for its judgment upon the whole qon. But tbe answer of Lord Palmerston placed the qutt in a different position, and he felt the difficulty of inting with the proceedings of the Government while the tia- lions were still open. Under these circumstances, tt it to Mr. Gibson whether he would not exercise a ijis- cretioa in refraining from calling upon the Hoior a decision, and leaving the matter for the preset the hands of the Government, without embarrassing tiby a discussion in that house ? Mr. S. Herbert said, if Mr. Gibsou persisted in mo- tion, be should feel it to be his duty to move the ioas question. Lord H. Vane, having intended to second Mr. on's motion, put it to bun whether, under the presenium. stances, it would be right for him to persist thereic Mr. Disraeli observed that the country had alit to demand from the Government a much more ext de- claration as to what was the position of the Goyient with reference to the negotiations than appeared :ient to satisfy the demands of Mr. Gladstone and Mr. bert. Lord Palmerston had not stated any circumstatbat could guide the conduct of the House at that mot, or induce it to refrain from expressing an opinion I the state of affairs, except that, while there was life t was hope. He had placed upon the table records of tego- tiations which had been undertaken by his colleaguider instructions which were acknowledged to have I ex- hausted. When the whole country was in expecta and the noble lord had given a day for this discussion, ome mysterious process, as rapid and unexpected as thctric telegraph, without any communication of partici, or any suffitestion that there was a fair chance of tbenia- tioos being renewed with the prospect of a hapfcult, by a vague declaration, he expected that this greacus- | sion should be suddenly ariested. The House audntry ought to have, at least, a declaration that wss c and explicit. Lord Palmerston maintained th«* the course had taken was uniform and consistent. Wben called uFo do go, ha laid upoo the uuie lue proceedings of the >tia- tions which had been conducted with the greatestility by Loid J. Russell, and, if they had not resulted the object the allies had in view—an honourable pe-the fault was not with Her Majesty's Government, or, our ally, the Emperor of the French, or with our llin a certain degree, the Emperor of Austria; it rested I the Government of Russia. Mr. Disraeli bad saidt he (Lord Palmerston) ought to have come down withes- sage from the Queen. The answer be had then m wa.. that he would not shut the door against the pot- re: newai of negotiations. He said then, and he repeanow, that he did not renounce all hope of a lati,factorlult. With regard to this motion, be had said that Mrbson must use his own discretion; he had thought the digion would be attended with public inconvenience, bu was not for him to dictate to members. Mr. Gibso^} a right to give notice of biB motion, and he (Lord ner. ston) had not shrunk from the discussion. He hawit it to be his duty to face it boldly; he had given a day the motion, and there he was, ready to face it. If tbouse thought proper to dispose of it by the previous quent he cared not if the question were so disposed of: ift the Government were prepared to meet it. Mr. Disi had called upon him for further explanations, but he we not be led into explanations and discussions of cotnuial communications with friendly Governments, the tt of which would be to render such communication* the future impossible or useless. If the House were take upon itself the power of carrying on negotiation.. Quid be injurious to the public service, and endanger tljrin. ciples of the constitution. If the Government w un- worthy of confidence, let the House say so; but Iq" as it reposed contidence in the Executive, it should g in the bands of the Government the conduct of infant negotiations. Mr. Bright thought there had been a little ovelcite- meat on both sides of the table. The object of Mragon was the establishment of a satisfactory peace, and {[Mr. Bright) should be satisfied if the motion went i and equally so if it were postponed. Mr. Roebuck observed that Lord Palmerst had not said that any circumstance had happenedhich placed the question in a different position fromat in which it stood when the notice of the motion wajren. He urged Mr. Gibson to bring it on, because thiople had not confidence in the Government, and, thoughiioni for an honourable peace, there was a feeling abroltJat a party in the Cabinet was anxious for a peace at a"rice. It waa because he was anxious, not for peace at a^ric6| but for an honourable peace, that he urged him to on with his motion. The Marquis of Granby said, it was necessary Under- stand clearly whether at this time negotiations wereusily taking place, and whether the Government were-Iling to entertain any proposition that might be mad., any one of the plenipotentiaries at Vienna. Lord J. Russell explained what bad occurred at a last Conference at which he was present, and what to(place at a subsequent meeting, when Count Buol decla that the means of negotiation were not exhausted. Hisinion waa that, whether the propositiou led to peace or t, the Austrian Government would, before the Conferenq(na|iy closed, make some proposition to the members wb) must have one of two resulto-either it would be rejeq, and then the Conferences would be broken off; or giiegotia. tions would be renewed with a better prospect of pfe. It was not possible for him to say more, and, when itaa ob- jected that this was vague, he answered that i*aa lo because he had nothing definite or precise to comatjcate. The negotiations were only suspended, they tt not broken off. Sir J. Pakiogton said Lord J. Russell had not stld any facts whatever which could guide the House to anbaclu. tion as to whether Mr. Gibson ought or ought not t)ersist in his motion. The House ought to know more riinctly from the Government whether or not the cooferen* were still going on, and the motion should not be piponed unless they stated distinctly that the negotiations it,* still open. Sir G. Grey said, it had been already stated it the conferences were not closed, and that any new PtCteitioD might any day be entertained by the Plelipoteat-ifs at Vienna. Mr. Gibson said, he did not koow on what authoy Mr. Roebuck had spoken of there being an anxiety for !lAce at any price, or why he and his friends should arr,ate to themselves the appreciation of the honom and di,jty of the country. He (Mr. Gibsoo) was not the (Jau to Iwocate any course inconsistent with its safety, honotr, andignity. When the Government had declared that tie conduces had not ended, and that the Austrian Goviromec would submit a proposition to the Governments <f Fra;e and England, he felt that he should not serve theobjec|)e had in view, or the interests of tbe country, if le perked in his motion, especially when it was to be met b; the revious question, he should not, however, abandon ttif moftD. but renew it, if necessary, at the earliest opptftuoit after Whitsuntide. Mr. Malms protested against what he termeda mck pro- ceeding, and with some remarks by Sir H. Wiloughy, Mr. John M'Gregor, and Mr. Cayley, the subject dfppe. The House then proceeded to the orders ')f te day, which were gone through after a short discussid. aij some further business having been despatched, theHoiae ad- journed at eight o'clock. TUESDAY. The House of Commons, at a morning sittingWs occu- pied in cotnmittett with the details of the Metropla Local Management bill. In the evening. Mr. Disraeli, referring to what ti taken place in the house on the preceding night, observetbat the language of the Government on that occasiou, >u, to his mind. so equivocal, that he shrank from the resptaibility of acceding to a resolution to adjourn for the recti for an unusual period, without obtaining some moreotar and explicit idea of the position of the country, with iftect to the great question of peace or war, th«n tbe Houie t pre- sent bad. Owing to the forbearance of the Hous« iil853, he observed, we had drifted into a disastrous war, gj, as we had been a long time engaged in negotiations fopeace under the influence and inspiration of a foreign ourt, through a similar forbearance, we might drift into aieace which would not be satisfactory to the people of thigoun- try. A feeling uf dissatisfaction and distrust was cfted by the ambiguous language and uncertain conduct tthe Government; aud means ought to be taken to show t-t it was not through the fault of that House that this ufei- tainty and ambiguity prevailed. For tbese reasons he asked the House to express its opinion upon the conuct aud language of the Government with regard to the g-at que-tion of peace or war, and to take some s'ep to piV" ;hat there was no uncertainty in its conduct, noambigity in its language, and no change iu its opinion, and than "a' prepared 10 support her Majesty in this war until se obtained for herself and her allies a secure and honourafe peace. He should lay upon the tabteofthe House that nee ing, he added, a resolution that would embody his view, and if he had an opportunity he would move it 011 Than day if not, before the adjournment «f the bolydayji. Mr. Layar. cor4itlix Hgrepti \n aH 140 lentiwQU @a. ed by Mr. Disraeli, and would undoubtedly give way m. >rd Palmer-ton said, Her Majesty's Government had ifjection whatever to meet the motion of which Mr. aeii hadgi>eu notice That right hon. gentleman, he rved, had complained that the lauguagi- of the Govern- t was equivocal and ambiguous. He denied the ju-tice :ie charge, and he repeated that it would be a great ich of public duty if he gave fuller explanations. As to forbearance of the House in 1853, he thought that Par- tent ought iatlier to congratulate itself upon, lhan re- ich itselt with, a forbearance which had very much in- sed the chances of peace. Neither was it any reproach lie Government that, while Austria was disposed to it them in their endeavours to bring about an accom- lation, they did not repel her advances, but continued negotiations under her auspices. They might have i open to blame, he observed, if, trusting entirely to her idly offices, they had neglected other means of bringing war to a termination; but, while they had not closed door to negotiations, they had acted as if no negotiation* been going 011. As long the person charged with rs of this country retained the tru«t reposed in them, tiouqe need be under no alarm that a peace would be e which would not be honourable to the country and safe the future. r. Wise moved a resolution, that the complete revision )ur diplomatic establi-Iiinciit-, recommended in the 1ft of the Select Committee of 1850 on Official Si.laries, aid be carried into effect, dwelling chiefly upon the ncial part of the question, and upon the ambassadorial snditure in particular, contending that there could be 'eal advantage in having both a Minister aud an ambas- >r at the same Court, Russia having abolished the rank jif ambassador. The motion was seconded by Mr. Ewart. Lord Palmerston concurred in the remarks of Mr. Ewart, jhat the consular and diplomatic servants of the Crown were rnost important instruments of the public service, and he pxcepted to some observations of Mr. Wise which were inconsistent with that view of their character. He then proceeded to reply in detail to the speech of that gentleman, showing that some of the recommendations of the com- mittee of 1850 had been adopted, and assigning reasons why others had not been carried into effect. The United States had revised their diplomatic and consular establish- ments but, instead ot reducing, they had increased the salaries and augmented their numbers, some of their mis- sions being more expensive than the corresponding missions of the British Government, No country in the world was better served by its diplomatic agents UlltII thi.. As no special ground had been laid for a resolution which implied a censure not deserved by the Government, he hoped Mr. Wise would be satisfied with this discussiou, and would not press the motion to a division. Mr. W. Williams supported the motion, expressing his deep regiet that a professed Liberal Government should continue extravagances which had been condemned by a Parliamentary committee. Mr. R. Phillimore suggested a rule interdicting our con- suls from carrying on business as private merchants, which would prevent a conflict between private interests and public duties. Mr. Whiteside complained that some of our diplomatic agents were deficient in the knowledge of the public law and, i Mr. Otway, that they were selected because they were either relatives of Cabinet Ministers or persons of high standing, ur because they had some Parliamentary in. fluence. Air. Wise offered to withdraw his motion; but, Mr. Baillie objecting, a division took place, when the motion was carried, in spite of Mr. Wise, by 112 to 57. Mr. H. Berkeley, in renewing his annual motion for leave to oring in a bill to cause the votes of electors to be taken by way of ballot. infused some novelty into his argu- ment by connecting the blunders and failures of the war with the malversation of the franchise. It was, he said, be. cause Her Majesty could only select ber advisers from cer- tain families which monopolized majorities in that House that not only Ministers of the Crown, but leaders of our army and heads of departments, civil and military, were chosen, not for ability or merit, but because they belonged to those families which were so powerful that they were able to make or mar a Ministry. He passed in review some of the mea- sures which had been introduced to check the abuses of our electoral system, especially the Corrupt Practices Prevention Act, of which he spoke with little reverence, and contended that before the executive Government could be brought into a healthy condition the rottenness at the heart of the House of Commons must be removed, and for this purpose a reform of the representative system was necessary, and the first step to this was the securing to every elector the free exercise of constitutional right, which was now wrested from him by the aristocracy and the moneyed classes. He read narratives of election incidents, in order to show the influence possessed and exerted by landlords over tenants, for which, he said, there was no remedy but a secret vote; and he cited a host of authorities in favour of the ballot. The motion was seconded by Mr. Feilden, who referred to the intimidation practised at his own election. Lord Seymour said, the main ground upon which he should give his vote was, that publicity was the essence of the representative system. The conduct of every cl iss was canvassed by the public; the highest person in the realm was not exempt by her eminence, nor the lowest by his insignificance. Mr. Berkeley, however, said that the acts of one particular class must be concealed that a member of Parliament must be hatched in the dirk, and come out of the ballot-box nobody knew how. But who were they who were to be absolved from responsibility? The class which included those retail dealers whose secret mal-practices had been exposed by a great Radical authority. If a man desired to act upon his opinions, he ought to have the manliness to avow them. Mr. Gordon, in a maiden speech, supported the motion, not so much, be said, because be thought it likely to prove a panacea for all the evils of our electorial system, but in the hope that it might tend to eradicate, or materially diminish, evils which all at least professed to deplore, by checking corruption, the direct and scandalous traffic in vote*, and a still greater nil-intimidation. Mr. Bentinck. iu a few words, opposed the motion, which wa. supported by Mr. P. O'Brien, who mentioned instances of intimidation and coercion in Ireland, and by Mr. Bland, who added other instances, mentioning names. Sir S. Bignold and Mr. Burrowes made some remarks upon collateral topics. Mr. Michell wished to amend the motion by requiring divisions in that House to be taken by ballot. Lord Palmerston said, his objection to the motion was the same as that stated by Lord Seymour-nlmely, that publicity and responsibility to public opinion constituted an essential principle in our representative constitution. He held the piivilege of a vote to be a trust confided by the law to a ceitain proportion of the community, not for their own benefit, but tor that of the community at large, and that it ought to be discharge in the face of the whole country. If electors were compelled to vote in secret, it would be a degradation of the national character to which Englishmen would not submit. The great bulk of the constituency would defy the law, and only a part would go sneakiug to the ballot-box, to screen them from some per- sonal inconvenience, being themselves objects of general obloquy. Mr. Dillwyn endeavoured in vain to obtain a hearing, and, the House having divided, the motion was negatived by 218 to 166. Mr. Monsell obtained leave to bring in a bill fur trans- ferring to one of Her Majesty's principal Secretaries of State the power and estates vested in the principal officers of the Ordnancer Certain bills were forwarded a stage, and the House adjourned at a-quarter before 1 o'clock.

THE PRINCIPALITY. The telegraph station at the Crimea is under the super. intendence of Major Biddulph, R.A., well-known in the neighbourhood of Pembroke. The Government, in order to meet the garrison wants of the important naval station at Pembroke Dock, has deter- mined upon the erection of new barracks at Pater. A magnificent line-of-battle ship, the Brunswick, 80 guns, will be launched at Pembroke, on the 1st of June, and will, no doubt, attract large bodies of spectators. HAY MAY FAia was held on Thursday last. Fat stock was sought after, and rather more than maintained its price; and good cart horses and good roadsters sold at very high prices. SOUTH WALES RAILWAY.—Every exertion is to be made to open the extension line to Neyland. The Directors are in expectation of having one mile per week of the per- manent way completed. Robert Hillford, governor of the Haverfordwest Union Workhouse, was fined by the Mayor and Magistrates in petty sessions sssembled, Is. and costs for having beaten three boys under 14 years of age each with a rope. He had on the day previous tendered his resignation. On Friday last petitions were presented in the House of Commons, by Lord Emlyn, from eight Dissenting congre- gations, in the county of Pembroke, and from Llandilo, Carmarthenshire, in favour of the Abolition of Church Rates, and from the Mechanics' Institute, Pembroke Dock, for the adoption of Decimal coinage. PEDESTfttAMMM.—.On Monday last, Thomson com- menced walking 100 miles at Carmarthen Market-place, which he undertook to complete in 20 hours. He gave it up in consequence of so few being in attendance. During the time he walked (two hours and a half) he completed 16 miles and a half, and did not seem much exhausted. SOLDIERING AND POOR RATES.—On Saturday week a large number of women, wives of militiamen, applied to the Carmarthen guardians for .1I.f, alleging, as a ground, that their husbands were engaged in their soldier duties at Llandilo. The applications were refused, to afford the chairman time to communicate with Lord Dynevor, the colonel of the militia. At the adjourned meeting on Thursday it was agreed to afford relief only to those who have children, on the condition that their husbands contri- bute proportionately. LLOYD v. BTNE.—This was a question brought on in the Prerogative Court, on Friday, before Sir John Dobson, as to the validity of the will of Mr. Johu Liovd, late of Haver. fordwest, dated the 2nd of December, 1852. The testator died on the 9th of July last. The will was propounded by Mr. Lloyd, the son, one of the exeoutors named therein, and opposed by one of the daughters. The only question for the decision of the Court was whether the deceased signed the will in the presence of the attesting witnesses, or whether he executed it after they had left. Dr. Twiss appeared in support of the will; Dr. Deane against it. The learned Judge, after hearing Dr. Deane, said that the evi- dence perfectly satisfied him that the will was duly ex- ecuted; be must, therefore, pronounce for it, but would decree costs out of the estate. David Thomas, of Blaenporth, the Collector of the In- come Tax in that parish, has been fined JEM by the Commissioners of Assessed Taxes at Cardigan, under the following circumltaDcea:-lt appeared that, in the book for 1853, the names of two farmers were inserted who were assessed to. and paid the Income Tax, but in the book for 1854 the names of these two persons were not inserted. The collector observed the variance, aud, as he stated, sup- posed the difference to arise from an error, or accidental omission; and although the names of those persons were not in his book, he called upon them for and obtained the Income Tax from them, which he supposed to be due; and when he attended the meeting on Monday, he stated the facts to Mr. Lucas and the Commissioners, and paid in the money received. He was, however, fined £ 50, for thus acting without authority. iori y. DEATH OF JOHN BOWEN, ESQ., MD.—We have this week to record the death of another of our oldest and best known townsmen. DOCTOR JOHN BOWEN, for many years a Magistrate for this County and Borough, and also a Town Councillor. The melancholy event, after a lengthened illness, took place at bis residence, in King-street, on Friday tast, at 10 p.m. The Doctor's family has resided in this county for .several centuries, he being seventh in des- cent from Sir Marmaduke Lloyd, of Llawr-y-llan, one of the Judges of the Brecon circuit, and the last male repre- sentative of the Bowens of Gurrey, with whcm, in this county, the name has expired. Doctor Bowen's professional career commenced in the Navy, and he was present during the brightest days of its history in several hard-fought and sanguinary engagements. After the war he retired to this town, the metropolis of his native county, from where, as the centre of a very extended circle, his professional skill has during the last forty years been in great request; and whilst, during the prevalence of illuess, the pressure of his engsgements to the amuent families of the county was very heavy, still he always contrived not to forget the poor, to whom, with the pleasure characteiistic of an English gen- tleman of olden days, he always gave a large portion of his time and gratuitous care. In politics the Doctor was a staunch Conservative, deeply attached to the institutions of the country, both in Church and State. We believe that be has devised the bulk of his ample fortune (which many say amounted to nearly £ 50,000) to his nephew, Daniel Lloyd Jones, Esq.,—(cousin to David Jones. Esq., of Pant- glas, M.P. for this county,) a gentleman now in Australia, and already enriched by his own exertiouv-Cartnarthen Journal. INFAMOUS CONDUCT.—A young girl at Abersychan, little more than 14 years of age, having found an attachment for a young man, was desirous of being married to him. Her step mother, Mrs. Knowles, like a prudent parent, endeavoured to dissuade her from her rash purpose. In revenge she left her home and went to live with an uncle at Beaufort, where she spread the diabolical report that her step-mother had poisoned her father, and actually laid an information to that effect with Superintendent Roberts and Sergeant Holder, of the Pontypool police. They quickly satisfied themselves that the report was false, and the girl confessed that she had propagated it in re- venge, because she was prevented from marrying the man she loved. Mrs. Knowles asked the coroner, Thomas Hughes. Esq,, to investigate the matter, but he, after an interview with Mr, Tucker, her father's medical attendant refused to hold an inquest. The ffirt any,, she wiU destroy herself if not allowed gtarrs,

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. RESIGNATION OF GENERAL CAN ROBERT. PARIS, Friday, May 18, 7.30 a.m.—The Monite.ur an- nounces thut his Majesty has tpceived the following des- patch from General Canrobert CRIMEA, May 16, 10 a.m.—Mv shattered health no longer allowing me to continue in the chief command, my duty towards my Sovereign an,1 my country compels me to ask you to transfer the command to General Pelis-ier, a »kiIful and experienced leader. The army which I leave him is in tact, hardened to war, full of ardour and confi- dence. I beseech the Emperor to leave me soldier's place (place de combatant) as commander of a simple division." The Minister of War has addressed the following reply to General Canrobelt PARIS, May 16, 11 p.m.—The Emperor accepts your resignation. He regrets that your health has suffered he congratulates you upon the sentiment which *iuakes you ask to remain with the army, where you shall have the command, not of a division, but of the corps of General Pelissier. Hand over the chief command to that General.' The resignation of the chief command of the French army by General Canrobert is art event likely to be fol- lowed by considerable advantage in the conduct of the war; but we hasten to add that the manner in which this resignation has been tendered by that officer and accepted by the Emperor is highly honourable to General Can- robert and to the spirit of the French army. Conscious, as it seems, that he had not the qualities required for the supreme command of one of the tinest armies which ever took the field, and that the fortune of war had placed a man of good second rate abilities in a position which de- mands the highest qualities of a General, the French Commander-in-Chief has not only laid down his command, but designated his own successor to the Emperor from among the General serving under his orders. At the same time, with true devotion to his profession, and with unabated zeal for that great enterprise;n which the allied armies are engaged, Canrobert has requested to be allowed to retain a divisional command in the Crimea, and, in short, to change ptaees with one of his own sub- ordinates. This circumstance shows that theplea of ill- health is a mere pretext; but so singular an instance of disinterested gallantry and genuine modesty does General Canrobert as much honour as a victory over tht Russians, and he has set a noble example to both armies of that temper and self-command which enables an officer to overlook all private considerations for the sake of the public service. The late General-in-Chief of the French army has many honourable and meritorious qualities he was always attentive to the welfare and preservation of his troops, he was amiable and honest in his re- lations with the staW of the allied armies, and he is brave and resolute in battle. The choice of the Emperor Napoleon, agreeing with the recommendation of General Canrobert, has fallen upon General-Pell".ier Jor the chief command, and we believe that the French army possesses no officer of greater energy or of higher military ability. General Pelissier is senior to General Canrobtrt, as well as to General Bouquet, and we believe to all the other officers commanding corps or divisions in tie Crimea. He is a soldier formed under Marshal Bugeiud in the wars of Africa, which he cariied on with nore than ordinary cruelty against the Arab tribes. Hiicharacter is said to be stern and vehement, but among he oflicers trained in that school of African warfare Genera Pelissier is considered one of the most eminent of thos; still re- maining in the service of France. He did not form part of the original army of the East under Marshal St. Arnaud, but he joined in the course of the witter, and has been in command for the last three months of one of the principal French corps engaged in the siege. We are, of course, unable to form any opinion-p-obably none can be formed, even by those best acquainted with this otficer-of the talents he may display in tie com- mand of a great army and in the operations of vhat the French call great war." No man knows with ertainty till he has tried, whether he possesses the astnishing combination of faculties which a high commnd calls forth and demands,— Timet. THE WAR. The pits used as burial grounds are commecing to exhale and the effluvia will seen spread petilence throughout the allied camp. An impetuous spirit is manifested by the French troops, who desire to assault the place at any ristrather than continue to remain apparently inactive betre the walls of Sebastopol. Prince Gortschakofffrom Sebastopol, 12th May,eports nothing of importance, and makes light of the efftt pro- duced by the allied fire, which he pronounce to be moderate. He states both armies have erected new battejes; a sortie against the English on night of lith-12t May, resulted in the spiking of a few guns. A mine explosion against the front of Russian bstion No. 4, did no damage. By telegraph from Varna, 20th May, it is meiioned that most of the Sardinian, and all the French roops have left Constantinople for the Crimea. Six thousand Turks are promised by the Porte t com- mence our contingent brigade, but they are still at long perspective range. MARSBILLBS, Tuesday. May 22.—General Bttinck has left for the Crimea. The Euphrates, which le Coo. stantinople on the 14th, has arrived. Despatcheseft at 9 a.m. Advices from the Crimea of the 12th .tle that torrents of rain have fallen since the 10th. THE BALTIC FLEET.

Small-pox and measles prevail on board the Tke of Wellington and Edinburgh, other ships of theiaitic fleet suffer in a minor degree. AUSTRIAN POLICY. Complaints against Austrian doings in the Datbian principalities receive more credit now that many tigues are loosened, which would not proclaim her mleeds whilst any chance remained of a complete reliae be- tween her and the Western powers. Austria has sent a paper, purporting to be an efcjda- tion of her views on the third point between Kuas and the Allies, this document cannot fail to be an intekting production, for it affects to define that which is unlown throughout Europe. Among the Russians a considerable degree of pro- bation is manifested at the spirited manner in tich Alexander acted during the conferences at Vienna. No decided change is visible in Austrian policy. 4unt Buol received 18th May a communication forwded from St. Petersburg through Prince Gortschakoff. Count Coronini has proclaimed martial-law it its severest form—that of drum-head courts—in the ptci- palities of Moldavia and Wallachia, whether by ord of the Emperor or from a conviction of its necessity isin- Certain; Baron Hess who commands the Austrian 1111 in Chief was not aware of the step takes by his Lieuu. ant.

LONDON MARKETS. CORN-KXCHANGE. MoKDAY. This morning's accession from Essex and Kent was moderate, but samples increased per rail ao the day ad- vanced, and many foreign veaa.l. were, nnoounced as at hmnd. The high terms first sought were eventual* ^in. quished, and the rise in price on Friday was lost; still, at a late hour very little English was sold, and that at the previous Monday's rate; foreign in limited inquiry on the same terms. The country flour amounted to 16,717 sacks. The foreign consisted of 1,236 sacks of Spanish. This trade felt all the slackness of the wheat-market, without a reduction in the rates. The whole of the bailey W84 but 4,730 quarters, including about 350 Dani-ii. There was a fair ioquiry for all descriptions, at fully Friday's improve- ment of Is. per quarter. In prices of malt no variation. Of foreign oats there were 24,291 quarters, of English 3,000, of Irish nearly 2,000 these together amounting to 29.231 quarters. Many more vessels were arriviug through the morning, aod, dealers being better supplied, business be- came difficult to transact iu most descriptions of foreign, and Irish were fully 6d. per quarter cheaper.

SMITH FIELD, MONDAY. The trade at Smithfield to-day was very slow for every- thing, and Friday's prices were barely obtained. Of beef the supply was large. and more plentiful than the bntcbere required to meet their wants; the sale* proceeded slowly, and prices were heavy. Of sheep on the contrary, the sup- ply was moderate, the total being below 22,000 head. in. cluding lamb*. Mutton sold very quietly, and lamb moved oft" rather slowly. Veal aud potk were much about the same as usual. Reef 4s. Od. 4s. 4d. 4s. 8d. I Pork 3s.lOJ. 4s. 8d Mutton 3s.l0d.4s. fid. 4*.lOd. | Lamb 3s.8d. 6s. lOd Veal 4s. Od. 5s. Od. ]

Prices differ but little, and for the most part have beeu steadily maintained. There line been a fair business doing it copper for exportation, aim 'or home consumption at.current rates. Smelters are pat* icularly firm in their prices,,aud there is uot the slightest pobability of any change taking place at preseut. The (resent low and unremuuerative price of English bar ion has caused consumers aud shippers to buy more freely, ad as many laige contracts for rails have lately been taken, ad many yet in the market unexecuted, we rather look for h%her prices than otherwise. Some large manufacturers 0 rails and bar. refuse to take orders, being quite full of wrk for some time to come. In Scotch pigs there is a ntnifest improvement in the demand; price* consequently hive advanced, and m xed numbers have realised about 4s. pf ton above our last quotatiou, holders new quoting 66s. 6o to 67. mixed onmbcrt, cnh, good merchantable bands, f.o.b. in Glasgow. A moderate amount of business- his been transacted in lead. Prices are firm, at an advance- ofabout 5s. to 10s. per tou. The spelter market reu»B,D» qiiet. Prices have tended downwards a few parcel* have! clanged hands at £ 22 5i to £ 22 10s., at which price ho'deia appear firm. English tin is steady at present prices. -BsQitie remains quiet, but not much offering. Straits coo"oue» jja. fnir request; really fine quality in good demand. A good business has Deen done in tin plates, both iQ the home trade and for shipment. The market is now nearly (,1ear of second-hand parcels, and makers are firm at the pricea quoted. A parcel of 3J2 keg* of Swediab Iteel has beetk totd. leaving about 5 tons equal astuttinent, for whieh 918 10.. is asked. SATURDAY, MAY 26. 1855.

"=" POETRY. TO THE POET. 0 GEXTLK Poet. whosoe'er thou art, Whom (Tüd hath irifted with a loving eye, A sweet, and mournful voice, a tender heart, Pass by the world, and let it pass thee by Be thou to Nature faithful still, and she Will be for ever faithful unto thee. Let them disdain thee for thy just disdain Shield thou thy heart ajraiiist the world accurst, Where they discourse of joy, and ache with pain, And babble of irood deeds, awl (lu the worst; Shed dews of mercy on their wither'd scorn, And touch their uiitlnight darkness with thy morn. There blind ambition barters peace for praise: There Pride ne'er sleeps, nor Hatred waxetli old And dwarfish Folly can his cubit raise To godlike stature on a little gold There Madness is a king, and ev'n the wise Sell truth to simpletons, and live on lies; There Pleasure is a sickly meteor-light, A star above—a pestilence below There Knowledge is a cup of aconite. That chills the heart, and makes the pulses slow Remorse, a scorpion's self-destroying sting, Sorrow, a Winter, without hope of Spring. There Love's clear torch is quench'd as in a tomb, Or bound for ever in a golden band He drags, with eyes tix'd on his early doom, Behind lean Avarice with the iron hand: Fancy, that till'd the woodlands with his glee, Scorns at himself, and murmurs to be free. There Justice, mindless of her holy name, Creeps o'er the slime with adder's ears and eyes, Stirs with dark hand the World-involving Haitie, Thirsteth for tears, and hungers after sighs; There Honour is a game to lose or win And Sanetity a softer name for Sin. For thee 'tis better to remain apart, Like one who dwells belleath the forest green, And listens far otf to the beating heart Of the wide world, all-seeing, though unseen In a cool cavern on a mountain side With rare, sweet flowers, and virgin springs supplied. Hark thou the voices from the peopled plain In tuneful echoes murmuring in thine ears, Watch thou the sunshine mingle with the rain, And mark how gladness interweaves with tears, And ply thy secret, holy alchymy, Like Clud, who gives the work, when none are by. And from the twilight of thy solitude z Note thou the lights and shadows of the sky, And cast the mighty shapes of Evil and Good In perfect moulds of Immortality, Till they are "een from far. like mountain light, That burns on high, when all below is night.

At Abergavenny fair last week. stocl1 was limited, an little changed bands. Fat beasts and steep were in goo demand, at a trilling advance. Pigs sc rce. Fine horse and handsome ponies realised good pries. Large numl bers thronged the pleasure fair. The Royal Mail packet-ship, Jamesltaines, belonging to the Black Ball Line, has just arried in the Mersey having performed her homeward paasge from Australii in 69 days, against 63A on the oatwardrun. This standi unparalleled in nautical history. IRON TRADE AT BIRMINGHAM.—tfom Birminghan it is mentioned that the suspension of Messrs.

Still the demant for manufactured iron continues to be of a rather mo, favourable char- acter. In the general occupations othe place there hat been no recovery. It is expected that the bnts and stales for cavalry and artillery horses at the camp of Aldrshott will be ready for occupation by the troops early in Jioe, and it is stated, that about 3,000 militia, 600 regular ifantry, 400 cavalry, and 300 Artillery and Sappers and liners will march to the heath about the 12th 01 the moaj. SHOCKING SUICIDE.—A few dayuiuce, Mr. Chapman. landlord of the King's Arms Hotel Salcombe, in Devon- shire, committed a most determine! act of suicide. He jumped out of the window, and, oisidering it waa three stories high, it is surprising he wascot killed on the spot. His injuries, however, were mortsrand after lingering a day or two, death put an end to hi sufferings. MILITARY ENCAMPMENT IN THS TOUESR OF DBÁN,- The result of the report of Col.

COMMANDING OFFICXKS AND OTHERS PCIBDINO TO TIIB CKIMEA, will find some valuable iuformati in the following letter, which has been received from non-commissioned officer, of the 34th Regiment, serving in e trenches before Sevastopol, dated March 27th. 1855. <41 think it my duty, to myself and the public in general, state that while ou duty in the trenches I caught such a cold J sore throat, that l could scarcely speak for a month or n-e.

Sir, your most grateful srant, Thos. William Grey, Corporal, 34th regiment, Light Divan. To Mr. Wool- ley, Chemist, Maidstone."

Ihe total number of burials at the hospital at Scutari, for the month of April, was 170 only. His Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland has appointed Captain Henry William Paget Butler, of the 7th Fusileers, his aide-de-camp. The Boxer. Fancy, Grinder, Cracker, and Clinktr, gun-boats, left for the Black Sea during Ihe ijiglit of Thursday, in company with the Malacca "and Gordon, sloops, the two latter having on board each a hundred il)oti of the Royal Artillery. The Simla arrived last week from Balaclava, bringing home Russian prisoners, and among them the Governor of Balaclava, who was taken priaoner when Balaclava was first seized by the English army. The Royal Commissioners of the Palriolic. Fund have decided not to admit the widows and ..rphans of men who have lost their lives ill the transput gerviCe in the Crimea to the benefits of the fund. A c<>inn,jtt?(. f,ag therefore, been formed at Southampton, uiider ,he ausl pices of Captain Eugledue, to raise a funj for their relief. There are at present only four regiments of infantry, besides the two uewly-raised battalioos of litHes, ()u"r- tered in the united kingdom, the whole of which are under orders for foreign service —viz., the 51st, SUlb, 94th and Otttli; 3rd battalions 60th Hlaes, and 3i jlbatlalion Ritie Brigade. The prospectus has been issued of an association en- titled the London and Great Western Railway Colliery Company, with a capital of £ 00,000 in 1;1 shares. The proposal is to work mines in the Dean Forest, and to supply shareholders in London, by aid of the railway, with a certain quantity, in proportion to the number of shares held, at cost puce. SERIOUS RAILWAY ACCIDENT.-An accident occurred at the Dudley Railway station on Monday. There is only one line of rails for the up and down trains arriving from Worcester and Birmingham, and, in consequence of some failure in the signal*, two trains coming in op- posite directions ran into each other, and inflicted serious injury upon no fewer than twenty passeugers; fortu- nately no one was killed. THE ALLIED ARMY.-—At the present moment every- thing deprnda on the skilful and energetic use of tbe nu- merous and magnificent armies assembled in ihe Crimea. All the last accounts assure us that the condition of these troops is everything that can be desired. General Bo. quet's army of observation consists of 30.00() infantry, 3000 cavalry, and 6(5 Held guns; General Pelissier'*corps, which will now be transferred to General Canrobert, con- sists of 20,000 picked troops, also ready for field service; the reserves of the French army, on their way from Con- stantinople to the Crimea, amount to at least 20,000 more men. and the available fotce of our allies canuot be inucla below 100,000 men. Our own army is stated by all the latest account*, which have been confirmed by Lord Pan- mure in hia |»luce in Parliament, lo be fully equal ia number "«1 -ffi-.eocy to what it was on i.e arrival in th. k"* f I e«nt.agent b*r«rrived to the num- ber of 10,000 or 1«,003 men; and a powerful Turkish army, under Omar Pasha, occupies Eupatoria. There in every reason to believe that th. ae forces are amply euffi- cient to accomplish all we require or expect of them and that, without abandoning the siege operations against Sebastopol, which necessarily absorb a large portioo of the troops and resources of the enemy, the allies can take file held either OQ the western or the eastern coast of tha Crimea.
