It was soon seen that a slight modification was still re- quired ; for it was within the limits of possibility that the prize-boy fromthe Lower S, 00l to thel. fiddle; similar promotion to four guineas per annum, n the Upper, when he would be called upon for a payment of about twelve pounds per annum This, in the major of cases, would be offering to him a theoretical advantage, but connecting with it a practical impossibility defect was pointed to the Principal ; he broug subject before the directors, and it that in any such case the pupil from the Lower E at once arranged should move into the IT hout, being called for any more than his original payment About the same time four scholarships, one of which is vacant annual] were founded in connexion with the Uppe allowing to the holder of it about £5O a year during the term of his undergraduate course. Thus, to the pupil whose parents could only afford to pay four guineas a year, no fewer than four grades of education were thrown open— School, each the three schools in the Collegiate Institution, Universities. In practice, none has yet passed throw. whole four grades; but we believe that one or more pupils have passed through three of them. id the In 1846 it was suggested that one link was still wanting in the chain of educational promotion. If the various Church Schools of the town, and other National Schools, were connected with the Lower School of the Collegiate Institution, pupils of the humblest class would be put in the way of promotion ; and each school, instead of being the ultimate scene of education to a lad in the humblest ranks of life, would ba only the first round of the ladder to all who had ability to ascend. This point would be gained by establishing scholarships in connexion with our several National Schools, so that the best boy in each would be promoted to the Lower School of the Collegiate Institution, to receive gratuitous education there for at least a year. If there were but one such prize at each, it would be vacant annually ; but there is no reason why there might not be two or more ; and even two or more schools might unite, and select the best boy from their joint numbers. Before the close of any pupil's term at the Lower School, his abilities would be thoroughly known ; and, if he possessed sufficient talent to obtain promotion, his future payments might easily be provided for by the friends of his school, by a special fund for the purpose, or by an arrangement making his scholarship tenable in such a case for another year. A little distinction in costume might also be invented, which would always mark out these young knights of the order of merit among their class-fellows. At this moment the principle is recognised, but to a very limited extent. Several of the best pupils of Christ Church schools have, from time to time, passed on to the Colle- giate Institution, and probably still do so. A similar prize is offered in connexion with those of St. Chrysostom; and, since 1846, a sum of money has been invested in the name of the trustees of St. Augustine's Schools, providing for such a prize in all time. This last is known as the Tattershall Exhibition. The object might be accomplished in either of two ways. The Committee of a National School might set apart a sum for this purpose annually from their donations and children's pence ; or they might pay a single sum for the possession of the privilege in perpetuity. There can be no doubt that the arrangement would be beneficial in every way : to the several schools, to the Collegiate Insti- tution, and to the good cause of education in the town. We recommend the subject to the earnest attention of both clergy and laity ; and we have no doubt that the Com- mittee of the Collegiate Institution will be glad to meet proposals from School Committees in a kind and generous ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE OF TROOPS AT LIVERPOOL. On Friday, as had been previously intimated, the 54th regiment of infantry arrived in Liverpool from Lan- caster, to be shipped on board the Niagara steamer, for conveyance to Gibraltar, where they are to relieve the 13th, stationed in that fortress, which will be immediately conveyed by the Niagara to the seat of war in the Crimea. It is only a few weeks since the 54th landed in this country from Canada, and since that period they had been quar- tered in Glasgow. On Thursday morning they left that city, by the Caledonian Railway, for Lancaster, where they arrived about half-past four in the afternoon. On their arrival at their respective billets in Lancaster, each of the men received a small pecuniary gratuity, the result of a subscription originated by the Mayor and principal inha- bitants, their wives and children also coming in for a share of the bounty. At half-past eight in the morning of Friday, the men and officers left Lancaster by railway, and, under command of Lieutenant-Colonel Moore and Major Smith, arrived in the Lime-street Station. On their arrival they were received by the Mayor, Colonel Derinzy, Captain Edwards, Sr.c., who were in waiting at the station to receive them ; and a body of police, under Major Greig and Chief Superintendent Ride, kept an open space so as to allow the soldiers to parade. The regiment, consist- ing of eight companies, and numbering about eight hundred men, and one hundred and fifty women and children, with the usual complement of officers, was con- veyed in two immense special trains ; and on their arrival Colonel Moore, their commanding officer, formed them into companies, and, everything being prepared, the band struck up " Cheer boys, cheer ;" the word " march" was passed along the line, and they filed into Lime-street, where the crowd met them with cheer after cheer. They took the route of Parker-street, Church-street, Lord- street, and Castle-street, to the Exchange. The whole of the route was lined with crowds of people, order being preserved by police stationed at intervals. On their arrival on 'Change, they formed three sides of a square, with the band in the centre, which played " God save the Queen," and " Partant pour la SyriH," the troops pre- senting arms, and the people vociferously cheering. A quantity of warm spiced ale, supplied by Mr. Cutts, of Chapel-street, and provided by the gentlemen on 'Change, was handed round to the men. The officers partook of a dejguner in the Town-hall. All having sufficiently rested, they were again put in motion, passing along Castle- street, James's-street, to the Landing-stage. Here the steam-tenders Satellite and Jackall, with two lighters, were moored alongside, in waiting to convey them to the mail steam-ship Niagara (Captain Shannon). An immense concourse of people occupied every available spot where the embarkation could be seen, and on the appearance of the troops the cheers were deafening. Commander Bevis, R.N., Lieut. Lord, R.N., and Mr. Shand, received them, and they immediately embarked. As the steamers left the stage, the enthusiasm of the crowd knew no bounds, waving of hats, handkerchiefs, and everything by which they could express sympathy and approbation. The men seemed in the best spirits, heartily returning the cheering, and waving their shakoes on the tops of their bayonets, while their band played appropriate airs. ARTILLERY FOR THE CRIMEA.—On Friday afternoon, a party, one hundred and twenty in number, and five officers, belonging to the Royal Artillery, arrived in Liverpool, by the London and Northwestern Railway, from Woolwich, and embarked on board the Niagara for the Crimea. The Niagara sailed on Saturday at one o'clock, afternoon. TILT FIFTY-SIXTH.—On Friday, a detachment of the 56th, consisting of one hundred and fifty men and three officers, also arrived from Chatham, by the London and Northwestern Railway, en route to Dublin, for which city they sailed on Saturday afternoon. LORD PALMERSTON has directed the prosecution of a Manchester bill-sticker, for posting a placard containing extracts from the war correspondence, tending to excite disgust at the war.

MUSIC AND THE DRAMA AT THE THEATRE ROYAL, the grand opera, after dragging on a tedious, lifeless, and profitless existence, for some time, came to a premature and untimely end last week, since which time the house has been closed. Mu. ISAAC'S CONCERT.-Our talented townsman, Mr. B. R. Isaac, will give a classical concerl to-morrow even- ing, in Rime's Music-hall, Bold-street, on which occasion he will be assisted by Madame Rudersdorff, and Herr Molique and Signor Piatti. He will further have the aid of Mr. IT.N. Lewis. The programme includes selections from the compositions of Mozart, Beethoven, Spoilt., &c., &c. • MR. HENRY RUSSELL'S CONCERT.—From an adver- tisement, it will be seen that this popular vocalist is to give a series of entertainments in the Concert-hall, Lord Nelson-street, commencing on Monday evening next. His programme is, as usual, attractive, and he will no doubt be welcomed by numerous auditories. AT THE ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE, the house, during the past week, has been nightly crowded, chiefly attracted by the fascinations of Senora Perea Nena and the celebrated troupe of Spanish dancers. The performances of these artistes, particularly those of the Senora, are characterised by great spirit and agility, some delicacy, and no small amount of graceful action. Their style is lively and striking, and affords much gratification to the multitudes who assemble to enjoy it. Besides the attractions offered by the Spanish corps de ballet, the members of the regular company have also been performing favourite dramas, with the usual talent and success. PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY—ORATORIO OP THE " MES- SIA.II."—On Tuesday evening, Handel's sublime oratorio, the " Messiah," was given in the Philharmonic-hall, in a style of completeness, beauty, and grandeur, seldom wit- nessed in the provinces. The chief vocalists were Madame Clara Novello, and Mesdames Enderssohn and Lockey ; together with Messrs. Sims Reeves, Lockey, and Henry Phillips, aided by the full band and chorus of the society, numbering fully 250 executants. The performance was open to the public at the usual rates of admission ; and owing, no doubt, to the inclemency of the night, the hall was not so well filled as the attractions offered would have fully warranted expectation of; nevertheless, it was well attended by a highly-intelligent and fashionable audience, who, by their judiciously-thned plaudits, testified their approbation more energetically than was quite consistent with the sacred nature of the entertainment. The ora- torio has been so frequently performed, and so lately, in Liverpool, by nearly the same artistes, that minute criti- cism on its qualities, or on the style in which it was executed, is superfluous. The ladies, generally, acquitted themselves in admirable style; Madame Novello, as usual, gave her recitatives with touching eloquence, and sang the airs incidental to her portion of the oratorio with much grace and beauty. In the charming recitative and air, , He was cut off," Mrs. Enderssohn displayed the fine feel- ing and artistic taste for which her style of vocalisation, in the higher departments of classic music, is so pre- eminently distinguished. Her rendering of the expres- sive music " How beautiful," was likewise delightful. In the hands of Mrs. Lockey, the wonderfully pathetic and exquisitely charming air, " He was despised," was indeed a gem of musical tenderness and beauty : she also did very great, if not full justice, to the mellifluous beauties of "He shall feed his flock." Mr. Sims Reeves was, as usual, sweet, tasteful, and expressive in his singing, although, to some extent, defective in his articulation ; still, he dis- played the compass and quality of his fine voice with great and telling effect. In giving the air "O death, where is thy sting ?" Mr. Lockey was.chaste, powerful, and artistic, and in general executed the music allotted him with distinguished ability. Our old favourite, Phillips, was in excellent trim, and delivered his portion admirably. The steady and self-possessed execution of the music by this artistic veteran was charming. The choruses, on the whole, went well, and indicated care as well as culture. The instrumental portion of the oratorio was also excellent, and the performance, as a whole, constituted a treat of the highest order. THE GREAT COMET.—The very splendid and remark- able comet observed in the years 104, 392, 682, 975 "n in 1264, and in 1550, was announced for re-appear- ance in 1848; but it has hitnerto failed to appear. We are now informed that a celebrated and accurate computer, 31. 13omme, of Middleburgh, has gone over all the pre- vious calculations, and made a newestimate of the separate and combined action of all:the planets upon this comet, of three hundred years ; and the result of this severe labour gives the arrival of this rare 2,nd renowned visitor in August 1858, with an uncertainty.of two years, more or less. Between 1856. and 1860, therefore, we may hope to see the great lumma7 which caused Charles V. to abdicate.

THE BATTLE OF INKERMAN, THE details which have been received, and which we have given in another page, of the great battle which was fought, near the ruins of Inkerman, on the sth of November, will be read with the most intense interest by every one ; for who is it that claims the paternity of the British soil, and does not partake of the enthusiasm which such an event is sure to inspire ? The military history of our country is a record of victories won under every disadvantage of climate, situation, and condition, and against almost any amount of odds ; so that a defeat of even a temporary character is a rare cir- cumstance, more than compensated by some subse- quent triumph ; and the consequence has been, that England has acquired a prestige for invincibility in war which has given her a moral supremacy over all Heathendom, and justified her claim to the proud position of being the mistress of the globe, and the arbitress of the destiny of nations. It was left, however, to our own day, and to the handful of troops which Ministerial parsimony, if not a worse motive, had allowed to remain so long without rein- forcements in the Crimea, to achieve a triumph which, for consummate bravery, chivalrous daring, and unflinching courage, throws all former battles completely into the shade, and proves to the world that, after forty years' inactivity, the military spirit of England is more capable than ever of defying a world-in-arms when the cause is that of justice. So long as the records are preserved of gallant deeds, and well-fought fields, the battle of Inker- man will stand out in bold relief as the one crowning victory which requires another SHA K- PERE to do justice to it, and which will excite our future heroes to emulation. The battle of Water- loo has given a name to many of our towns, bridges squares, streets, and terraces, and can never be for- gotten; but the name of Inkerman , despite its want of euphony, will be quoted in all succeeding ages as an instance of victory achieved under greater disad- vantages, and more indebted to individual heroism than any yet recorded, battle of Agincourt : SHAKSPERE said of the " He, that outlives this day, and comes safe home, Will stand a tip-toe when this day is named !" " And gentlemen in England, now a-bed, Will think themselves accursed, they were not here Aud hold their manhoods cheap, while any !peaks That fought with us upon St. 6ispin's day But to what " brightest heaven of invention" must his muse have ascended to sing the imperishable renown of the heroes who fought at Inkerman ? Fortunately for ns, and fortunately for the liberties of Europe, the heroes are ours, and it is only the poet who is wanted to adequately sing their praises. So that we must be content with the plain unvar- nished tale which LORD RAGLAN, with as much modesty as valour, so well delivers. It appears that, by the 3rd of November, it had been observed that the Russians were considerably increasing their forces, having evidently received large reinforcements from the North, and on the next day (Saturday) this was still more apparent, and the presence of the two GRAND DUKES had also been observed in the Russian army. Lord RAGLAN accordingly took every precaution within his power to strengthen his position, as it was plain that the Russians in great force contemplated an attack on the English army, which, it seems, only numbered about eight thousand men. The expectation was not delusive, for on the next day (Sunday), the memorable sth of November, and now rendered more memorable than ever,—before it was daylight, and in the midst of a thick mist, the Russians came thundering on in dense masses of infantry and cavalry, aided by powerful batteries of heavy artillery, and in all the confidence of victory, from their immense superiority of numbers, which were supposed to amount to about 60,000. The shock must have been tremendous, and, under ordinary circumstances, sufficient to annihilate the small numerical force opposed to it ; but British valour compensated for poverty in numbers, and stood the shock like lions. A small party of French soon came up to our assistance, and then, according to the language of The Times correspondent, com- menced the bloodiest struggle ever witnessed since war cursed the earth. As the day advanced, and the Russian columns were beaten back, fresh masses came to the encounter, to meet the un- flinching resistance of the English, aided by the French. For many hours the victory was doubtful, as the tide of battle swayed hither and thither, the Russians obtaining a great advantage by the murderous fire of their immensely-powerful artil- lery ; and it was not until the afternoon that British supremacy was proudly asserted, and the Russian army was compelled to retreat before the Allied Forces, who were not one-fourth their numbers, the Russians losing more in killed and wounded than the whole force opposed to them. So signal a victory, so triumphant an issue to a contest in which the odds were so frightfully against the victors, was not achieved without a great sacrifice of some of the best and bravest of our soldiers. We have to lament the loss of Lieut.- General the Honourable Sir GEORGE CATHCART;

OF INKER,MAN. 1 authentic details of the gre sanguinary battle fought on the sth instant, befoi ;bastopol Rind in the subjoined accounts OFFICIAL DESPATCHES From the London Gazette Extraordinary of Wednesd, War Department, Nov. His Grace the Duke c Newcastle has this day fAllnwin, is a ennv. add I;i;orraCebyField-Marshal the Lord Raglan, G.C.B. Before Sebastopol, Nov. Bth, 1854 MY LORD DIIME,—I have the honour to report to your grace that the army under my command, powerfully aided by the corps of observation of the French army, under the command of that distinguished officer, General Bos- quet, effectually repulsed and defeated a most vigorous and determined attack of the enemy on our position over- looking the ruins of Inkerman, on the morning of the stl instant In my letter to your grace of the 3rd, I informed you that the enemy had considerably increased their force in the valley of Tchernaya. The following day this aug- mentation was still further apparent, and large masses of troops had evidently arrived from the northward, and on two several occasions persons of distinguished rank were observed to have joined the Russian camp. I have subsequently learnt that the 4th corps-de-arme e, conveyed in carriages of the country, and in the lightest possible order, had been brought from Moldavia, and were to be immediately followed by the 3rd corps. It was therefore to be expected that an extensive movement would not be long deferred. Accordingly, shortly before daylight on the sth, strong columns of the enemy came upon the advanced picquets, covering the right of the po- sition. These piquets behaved with admirable gallantry, defending the ground, foot by foot, against the over- whelming numbers of the enemy, until the Second Division, under Major-General Peunefather, with its field guns, which bad immediately been got under arms, was placed in position. The Light Division, under Lieut-General Sir George Brown, was also brought to the front, without loss of time. The First Brigade, under Major-General Codring- ton, occupying the long slopes to the left towards Sebas- topol, and protecting our right battery, and guarding against attack on that side • and the Second Brigade, under Brigadier-General Buller; forming on the left of the Second Division, with the 88th Regiment, under Lieut.-Colonel Jeffreys, thrown in advanced The Brigade of Guards, under his Royaß Highness the Duke of Cambridge and Major-General oentinck, pro- ceeded likewise to the front, and took up m st important ground to the extreme right, on the alignement of the Second Division, but separated from it by a deep and pre- cipitous ravine, and posting its guns with those of the Second Division. The Fourth Division, under Lieut.-General Cathcart, having been brought from their encampment, adv anted to the right and front of the attack. The First Brigade, under Brigadier-General Goldie, proceeded to the left of the Inkerman road. The Second Brigade, under Brigadier- General Torrens, to the right of it, and on the ridge over- hanging the valley of the Tchernaya. The Third Division, under Lieut.-General Sir Richard England, occupied in part the ground vacated by the Fourth Division, and supported the Light Division, by two regiments under Brigadier-General Sir John Camp- bell, while Brigadier-General Eyre held the command of the troops in the trenches. The morning was extremely dark, with a drizzling rain, rendering it almost impossible to discover anything beyond the flash and smoke of artillery and heavy musketry fire. It, however, soon became evident that the enemy, under cover of a vast cloud of skirmishers, supported by dense columns of infantry, had advanced numerous batteries of large calibre to the high ground to the left and front of the Second Division, while powerful columns of infantry attacked with great vigour the Brigade of Guards. Ad- ditional batteries of heavy artillery were also placed by the enemy on the slopes to our left, the guns in the field amounting in the whole to ninety pieces, independently, however, of the ship guns and those in the works of Se- bastopol. Protected by a tremendous fire of shot, shell, and grape, the Russian columns advanced in great force, requiring every effort of gallantry on the part of our troops to resist them. At this time two battalions of French infantry, which had on the first notice been sent by General Bosquet, joined our right, and very materially contributed to the successful resistance to the attack, cheering with our men, and charging the enemy down the hill, with great loss. About the same time a determined assault was made on our extreme left, and, for a moment, the enemy possessed themselves of four of our guns, three of which were retaken by the 88th, while the fourth was speedily recaptured by the 77th Regiment, under Lieut-Colonel Egerton. In the opposite direction the Brigade of Guards, under his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, was engaged in a severe conflict. _ _ The enemy, under the cover of thick brushwood, ad- vanced in two heavy bodies, and assaulted, with great determination, a small redoubt, which had been constructed for two guns, but was not armed. The combat was most arduous, and the Brigade, after displaying the utmost steadiness and gallantry, was obliged to retire before very- superior numbers, until supported by a wing of the 20th Regiment of the Fourth Division, when they again ad- vanced and retook the redoubt. This ground was afterwards occupied, in gallant style, by French troops, and the Guards speedily reformed in rear of the right flank of the Second Division. In the meanwhile Lieut.-General the Hon. Sir George Cathcart, with a few companies of the 68th Regiment, considering that he might make, a strong impression by descending into- the valley and taking the enemy in flank, moved rapidly forward ; but, finding the heights above him in full occupation of the Russians, he suddenly dis- covered that he was entangled with a superior force, and while attempting to withdraw his men he received a mortal wound, shortly previously to which Brigadier- General Torrens, when leading the 68th, was likewise severely wounded. _ _ . Subsequently to this the battle continued with unabated vigour, and with no positive result, the enemy bringing upon our line not only the fire of all their field batteries, but those in front of the works of the place, and the ship guns, till the afternoon, when the symptoms of giving way first became apparent ; and shortly after, although the fire did not cease, the retreat became general, and heavy masses were observed retiring over the bridge of Inkerman, and ascending the opposite heights, abandon- ing, on the field of battle, five or six thousand dead and wounded, multitudes of the latter having already been carried off by them. I never before witnessed such a spectacle as the field presented ; but upon this I will not dwell. Having submited to your grace this imperfect descrip- tion of this most severe battle, I have still two duties to discharge—the one most gratifying, the last most painful, to my feelings. I have the greatest satisfaction in drawing your grace's attention to the brilliant conduct of the allied troops. French and English vied with each other in displaying their gallantry, and manifesting their zealous devotion to duty, notwithstanding that they had to contend against an infinitely superior force, and were exposed for many hours to a galling fire. It should be borne in mind that they have daily, for several weeks, undergone the most constant labour, and that many of them passed the previous night in the trenches. I will not attempt to enter into the detail of the move- ments of the French troops, lest I should not state them correctly ; but I am proud of the opportunity of bearing testimony to their valour and energetic services, and of paying a tribute of admiration to the distinguished con- duct of their immediate commander, General Bosquet ; while it is in the highest degree pleasing to me to place upon record my deep sense of the valuable assistance I received from the Commander-in-Chief,General Canrobert who was himself on the ground, and in constant commu- nication with me, and whose cordial co-operation on all occasions I cannot too highly extol. • Your grace will recollect that he was wounded at the Alma. He was again wounded on the sth, but I should hope that he will not long feel the effects of it. I will, in a subsequent dispatch, lay before your grace the names of the officers whose services have been brought to my notice. I will not detain the mail for that purpose now, but I cannot delay to report the admirable behaviour of Lieutenant-General Sir George Brown, who was unfor- tunately shot through the arm, but is doing well; of Lieutenant-General His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, who particularly distinguished himself ; and of Major-General Pennefather, in command of the Second Division, which received the first attack, and gallantly maintained itself under the greatest difficulties through- out this protracted conflict; of Major-General Bentinck, who is severely wounded; Major-General Codrington, Brigadier-General Adams, and Brigadier-General Torrens, who are severely wounded ; and Brigadier-General Buller, who is also wounded, but not so seriously. I must likewise express my obligations to Lieutenant- General Sir Richard England, for the excellent disposition he made of his division, and the assistance he rendered to the left of the Light Division, where Brigadier-General Sir John Campbell was judiciously placed, and effectively supported Major-General Codrington ; and I have great pleasure in stating that Brigadier-General Eyre was em- ployed in the important duty of guarding the trenches from any assault from the town. Lieut.-General Sir De Lacy Evans, who had been obliged, by severe indisposition, to go on board ship a few days previously, left his bed as soon as he received intelligence of the attack, and was promptly at his post ; and, though he did not feel well, enough to fake the command of the urn his b, y distressing to me to t of the killed, woundec lave to sul milt to your on this memorable occasion It is, indeed, heavy, and veil,. many dicers anc Among the killed your grace will find, the names of Lieut.-General the Hon.

Brigadier-General Strangways was known to have dis- tinguished himself in early life; and in mature age, throughout a long service, _he maintained the same cha- mode in which he had conducted the com mand of the artillery since it was placed in his hands by the departure, through illness, of Major-General Cator, is entitled to my entire approbation, and was equally agree• able to those who wero confided to his care.

landing arms at Baricoa. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE ARABIA BEBBINGTON.—A public meeting of the inhabitants was held on Wednesday evening, in the School-room, Lower Bebington, for the purpose of appointing a committee to collect contributions for the Patriotic Fund throughout the townships of Lower Bebington, Poulton- cum-Spital, and Storeton. The Rev. R. M. Fielden, the rector of the parish, was in the chair. Mr. H. Nield moved the first resolution, which was for the appoint- ment of a committee for collecting subscriptions. The resolution was seconded by Mr. John Light- bound, and carried unanimously. So strong was the feeling of sympathy evinced by the meeting for the losses sustained by our army, in the recent sanguinary struggle, that many gentlemen, who had already subscribed liberally _in Liverpool, put down their names for additional sums, and in a few minutes upwards of £4O was collected in the room, exclusive of the sums of :£2O each, given by the Rector of Bebington, and John Deane Case, Esq. The fact, that the Rector, who is also Chairman of the Birken- head Magistrates, had two sons, Major Robert Fielden, of the 44th Regiment, and Lieutenant Fielden, of the 38th ' Regiment, both in the engagement, but who, happily, escaped unhurt ; and, also, a nephew, Captain Gipps, of the Scots Fusilier Guards, who was severely wounded, added to the interest which was felt on the occasion. FARMING IN CHESHIRE.—For the last month the farmers generally have been busily engaged in preparing for the sowing their wheat, the greater portion of which has been put into the ground in the best possible condi- tion; there is, however, upon the dry soils, and• more especially the turnip land, a considerable quantity yet to sow, but should the weather continue tolerably fine for a fortnight longer, in that also we may expect great progress to be made, and we think a full average quantity will be sown during the season. The yield of the .last crop of wheat appears to be satisfactory, and the price, although rather lower within the last week, is also considered remu- nerative. Very little barley has been threshed, or indeed of oats; therefore much cannot be said of those crops, but it is feared that barley will not prove an even sample, or very productive. Winter vetches have engaged the atten- tion of the farmers in an unusual degree, in consequence of the deficiency of the hay crop and expected scarcity of spring food for cattle, and the demand for seed has greatly exceeded the supply, which has caused the price to be very high. It is much to be regretted that the opinion formed a few weeks ago, with regard to the productiveness of the potato crop, has undergone a great change ; many crops which, at the time of being raised, had comparatively a healthy appearance, are, on their final removal to the "hay" for the winter, found to contain at least 20 per cent. and in some instances as much as 30 to 40 per cent. of diseased potatoes ; consequently, the price has risen materially in the market, and is likely to be much higher before the spring months. The season has been very fine for, pulling and storing mangold wurzel, and the crops generally are found to be much superior to the turnip crop, which is almost invariably the case in dry hot seasons like the last. Turnips are still growing, but they never can recover from the effects of the mildew, which has been so prevalent, especially amongst early sown ones. Fat cattle and sheep are very scarce, and the price of beef and mutton is likely to advance considerably before Christmas. Pigs are also in good demand.—W.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.—The pressure in the money market continues without abatement, and its influence is seriously felt in all branches of trade. These western bank troubles excite renewed distrust and alarm here, and a large amount of hypothecated stocks have been. forced upon the market, thus absorbing capital that could not well be spared from the legitimate channels of trade_ The average loans are now lower than at any period within the past twelve months. The current rates for prime business paper, having thirty to ninety days tce. mature, are 12 to 15 per cent. per annum • and call loans, backed by undoubted securities, are negotiable at 7 to & per cent. Exchange on London was dull, at los ito lost; Paris, 5131 to 515. There is more favourable intelligence in reference to the Maine banks. The reports in regard to the renewal of business by the Hallowell, Shipbuild- ers', and Ellsworth Banks have also had the effect to inspire fresh confidence at Portland and other eastern towns. The City, Merchants and Mechanics', and Farmers' Banks, of Chicago, have suspended payment. The firm. of George Milne and Co. have also suspended; but the assets of the firm are equal to the discharge of their debts. 1 The total amount of gold shipped, from California for the three months ending the 30th September amounted. to 513,794,960, of which $12,609,407 were destined for the Atlantic States, and $1,185,552 for foreign ports. Total, nine months, $38,722,155. COTTO27.—The demand continues extremely light, both for home use and export, and, under the late unfavourable accounts from England, the market is depressed and prices materially lower. The crop prospects have materially im- proved during the past three weeks, owing to the conti- nuance of fine weather. Prices, although gradually yield- ing in all the markets of the States, are at the moment aided by light receipts, heavy arrivals being delayed at southern ports by low rivers. The receipts at the ports are still in excess of last season, as are also the exports to, Great Britain and France. Our quotations are reduced ic_ on those advised 10th inst., but must be still be consi- dered nominal. _ _ _ ___ . _ _ (From W. P. Wright's Circular, of November 15.) In this market, owing to the disappointment felt in the sbsence of advance at Liverpool, but more particularly to the change in opinion on the subject of crop, the transac- tions have been trifling, and at a decline of lc. to fc. per liss on the quotations given on the 6th inst. Exporters have kept almost entirely out of market, except when tempted. by a cheap lot, and spinners have only operated to a limited extent. The sales during the past day or two have been at very irregular prices ; it is therefore difficult to give quotations with exactitude, but it is nevertheless. certain that sales to any extent could not at the moment be effected, even at the reduction in price. The weather has continued remarkably fine for the opening and gather- ing of the second growth or top crop, and the season is now too far advanced for any damage to accrue from a killing frost. The general estimates are increasing, and 3,000,000 bales find few advocates, even as a minimum. The following is a statement of the movement in cot- ton since the Ist of September last, as compared with the previous three years:— 1854 1853 1852 1851 Receipts at the p0rt5......318,000 289,000 526,000 362,00 G Exports to Great Britain. 93,000 85,000 160,000 108,000 If France 43,000 10,000 20,000 49,001 - , Other fon. ports... 22,000 22,000 26,000 13,0001 Total' exports 158,000 117,000 206,000 170,004 E By the British and North American Royal mail steam- Stock on hand..... 226,000 214,000 302,000 205,000. ship Arabia, Commodore Judkins, which arrived on From which it will be seen that the increase in receipts, Sunday afternoon, we have intelligence from New York now amounts to 29,000 bales ; the increase in exports to to the 15th inst.

While in the workhouse no information could be obtained from her concerning herself or her friends, and all inquiries on these points made by the officials of the union have proved unavailing. Her ap- pearance bespoke her to be very poor, but from memoranda found upon her since her death it appears that she is in possession of funded property to the extent of about £5,000. The sum of £5O was found upon her, the balance of which sum, after payment of her funeral and other expenses, will be handed over to the treasury in the event of none of her friends coming forward to claim her property. The name of " Miss Mary Bell" was written on a Stock note found upon her, which is therefore supposed to be her name. THE RusslAN PRISONERS AT LEWES,—Three of the Russian officers who were on parole in this town, and three of the i*ivates who were in the war prison took their departure,on Friday afternoon, for London, en route for Russia, in exchange for English prisoners captured by the enemy. The officers who have taken their departure are Captain Von Essen, Captain Snellman, and Lieutenant Pischulin, of the Imperial Horse Artillery, who were taken at Bomarsund. A few days since one of the officers on parole purchased one of Colt's revolvers of a gunsmith in the town, and he subsequently received an order for about a dozen more, but before executing it he consulted a legal gentleman, and declined to supply them. These circumstances became noised abroad in the town, and eventually reached the ears of the local representatives of the Government ; the result of which was that inquiries were instituted as to the purchaser, and that having been ascertained, the weapon was demanded from him and taken. THE MATRIMONIAL ASSOCIATION.-At Bow-street Police-office, on Saturday, Mr. Edwards, hotel-keeper, of Norfolk-street, Strand, who recently drew the attention of the magistrates to the proceedings of the Matrimonial Alliance Association, and who obtained a warrant against the secretary, Lawrence Cuthbert, now waited upon his worship to explain that, since he had laid the former complaint, he had received a number of letters from all parts of the country, from persons who complained of having been victimised by the same society. One gentle- man, at Colchester, stated that he had parted with £9O, while other writers mention £25 and other sums as the cost of their folly in entering upon the delicate negotia- tions to which they were invited by the public circulars of the " institution." Mr. Edwards placed some of the let- ters before the magistrate, who said there was abundance of law to meet such cases as these, if those who had parted with their money thought fit to step forward and prosecute. gh all 11pleerdicBionxe,Vwenitilliorfisthadtilrsee. directions tine Vendori. which is felony P3o3ssi-office Order or Stamps to °Drs.

WHILE the war forms the absorbing subject of public interest, and occupies conversation to the exclusion of nearly everything else, it would ap- pear almost a waste of words to say anything on the once-exciting topic of party politics. Never- theless, we must not altogether lose sight of the interests of party, the more particularly as the conduct of Ministers with reference to the war will necessarily come under discussion before Par- liament. The question may, however, assume two phases, which will probably meet with different fates; and the course to be pursued by that large section of the House of Commons, known as the Conser- vative party, will consequently not be unimportant. FATAL RAILWAY COLLISION.—A collision occurred on the Midland Railway, in the parish of Leicester, on Sa- turday night. The Burton branch of this railway joins the main line by a gentle curve, about half-a-mile to the south of the Leicester station. About 40 minutes past eight o'clock, a goods train from Burton for Leicester, and which was due there at a quarter past six o'clock, was just pass- ing along this curve on to the down rails of the main line, when it was run into by the down passenger train, which leaves Euston-square at four o'clock p.m., and is due at Leicester at five minutes past eight. That part of the goods train which was struck was much shattered, and the engine of the passenger train was turned over on to the up line of rails. The driver and fireman escaped un- hurt, but seven passengers were shaken, cut, and bruised, and one, a lady, has since died. She was a first-class pas- senger, and was found insensible on the floor of the carriage in which she was travelling. A surgeon at once adminis- tered some stimulants, and she was removed to Cook's Temperance Hotel, where she died early on Sunday. From documents in her possession, it appears her name was Robertson ; she had travelled from Dorkington to London, and had a ticket from London for Derby. She had a large quantity of luggage and books, and a con- siderable snm of money in her possession. It is useless to conceal the fact that the ex- penses already incurred in the prosecution of the war have amounted to a very large sum, and thatthe further reinforcements, which are imperatively called for to a much greater extent than has yet been supplied, will render necessary additional de- mands on the Exchequer to a very considerable amount. The voting of these supplies, and the mode by which they are to be raised, form what is usually considered the most important functions of the House of Commons—leading in many instances to decisions on which may hang the fate of a Ministry. In an emergency like the present, how- ever, it is of the utmost consequence that there should be unanimity of opinion on the first great question of sparing no expense, in order that the war may be prosecuted with vigour. It is, there- fore, satisfactory to know, from the public decla- rations of those who are recognised as leading men in the Conservative party, that it is not their intention to offer any opposition to the demands of the Ministry for the most ample supplies, or to in- terpose any facti objections to the mode of their being raised. InVis respect, therefore, the House of Commons, as representing the voice of public opinion, the tendency of which is unmistakeable, will be unanimous, except, indeed, it may be the small section who advocate the exploded fallacies of the Peace delusion ; and, if we may judge by the burning of JOHN BRIGHT in effigy, at Manchester, they have not much sympathy even among their own constituents But if the Coalition Cabinet be able to obtain the support of Parliament upon a question which will obviously secure unaaimity, it does not there- fore follow, that their conduct with reference to the war will secure an equal meed of approbation. On the contrary, we believe there is much which is deserving of marked disapproval. From the com- mencement of the war the sincerity of Lord ABER- DEEN was open to grave suspicion—which his sub- sequent conduct has tended to confirm. In his )ARD AND GENERAL COMMERCIA L ADVERTISER. a cuckoo-c ssinzs of reacc the best, are truisms ; but very much out of I when the sword is drawn and the enemy still I Nor has this pro-Russian tendency been Lord RAGLAN lande Ministr inadequate to the work they had to perform, it was I It until three sanguinary engagements had re- original numbers, and public indignation became too loud to be misunderstood, that any exertions by dispatching further reinfor aments. It was I the great DUKE himself—that England should never be engaged in a little war ; but, despite the experience of his sage counsels, Lord RAGLAN was left to bear all the brunt of his dangerous position miserably short-handed—his men enduring the extremity of hardship and fatigue—until we could not help suspecting Lord ABERDEEN would have been better pleased at his defeat than to receive the bulletins of the glorious victories at Alma, at Balaklava, and at Inkermann. Many a family in England now mourns the bereavement of father, husband, son, and brother, cut off in the tre- mendous struggles of which we have published the details ; and the country mourns the irreparable loss of such men as Sir GEORGE CATHCART, and other able Generals. Had their fate been irreme- diable, our grief at their loss might have been less poignant, but we cannot remove the strong im- pression that, had the reinforcements which are now sent out with such celerity been despatched when their necessity was first apparent, the vic- tories so hardly gained might have been more effectual, and won with far less loss. We are quite aware of the uselessness of regrets for that which is past recal, and the inevitable necessity of pro- viding better for the future ; but the facts will form an important element in the question when Parliament is called upon to pronounce a verdict on the conduct of the Ministry. They have no plea of party obstruction, for the fullest confidence has been reposed in them; and had they exceeded all that was at one time anticipated, they would far more readily have obtained an indemnity for sending to the Crimea ten thousand men too many than they are entitled to receive for having sent too few.

On examina- tion it was found that the obverse and reverse of the coin was divided, but united with a fine screw. Being opened, a halfpenny was enclosed, which also was divided ; being opened, a farthing was enclosed, and also divided; and, being opened, a half-farthing was enclosed. This Qlabo- rate penny is the same as the old heavy penny of George III; date, 1799. £64,215,126 11 9 Of this immense sum, the only items to which is attached the word "repaid," are £200,000 of the £220,000 advanced to the Prince of Orange in 1799 and 1813, and the £200,000 advanced to France in 1814. There are no advances since 1816, except upon the Russian-Dutch Loan to Holland, and the Greek Loan. The Russian-Dutch Loan com- menced in 1816, and has continued every year since, the last payment iu 1851 having been £88,577 7s. sd. The advance to Havre, for the fortifications of the Netherlands, commenced in 1818, and terminated in 1820. The Greek Loan commenced in 1843, and has continued ever since, the last payment,i n 1853, having been £47,637 ls. 2d. The loans or advances to Baden, Hesse Darmstadt, and Bruns- wick all ceased prior to the commencement of the present century. The first advance to Russia was in 1799, and the last recorded was in 1816. A MODERN ROMANCE.—On Monday, last week, the Lord Chancellor delivered judgment in the case of Thorn- hill v. Thornhill, relative to the attempted abduction of a NATIONALITY.—In the production of the military drama of the battle of the Alma, at Bristol theatre, the ma- nager experienced the greatest difficulty in inducing par- ties to personate Russians. The soldiers employed in the spectacle would not listen to the proposition, and the ordinary " supers" either flatly refused, or begged to be allowed in preference to fill the humblest position in the allied army. Mr. Chute explained to them, with the best eloquence he could use, that they were but Russians in "jest," and some of them at length yielded to his impor- tunities, but he wholly failed in prevailing upon the full number on which he reckoned. ANCIENT MSS.—A few days ago the workmen engaged in the demolition of the tower of St. Jean de Latran, opposite the College de France, found a number of parch- ments, which M. Van Cleemputte, the architect, carefully collected and deposited at the Hotel de Ville. They were found to belong generally to the 13th and 14th centuries, but there is one receipt of the 16th century. It is thought that other manuscripts may be discovered, and orders have been given that they are to be carefully preserved, and after being classified at the Hotel de Ville, their con- tents are to be communicated to the Minister of Public Instruction. THE FREEHOLD FRANCHISE.—In the case of Astbury v. Henderson, in the Court of Common Pleas, on the 24th inst., the Conservative Land Society. which have fought for the principle of the franchise being extended to all persons who have purchased plots of land, proved to be of the value of 40s. per annum, have gained the unanimous decision of the four judges (the Lord Chief Justice Jervis, and Justices Malik, Williams, and Crowder), in their ap- peal against the decision of the revising barrister at the Putney Estate, who refused the right of voting to seventeen allottees on the ground that the land was not let, and did not yield 40s. per year. This important judgment decided that a plot of freehold land may be had of the value of 40s. per year, and thus confer the county franchise, notwith- standing that this land may not be actually let on building lease or otherwise, and is for the time unoccupied arid wholly unproductive. ENGLISH GROWN SILIC.-Many persons in England, as a matter of entertainment, have .kept a few silkworms, which have produced cocoons. No further result by them has been contemplated ; but we have heard of a gentle- man (Mr. Hutton) in Cornwall, who has followed out the growing of silk so successfully as an amateur, that he has at length arrived at the conviction that silk-growing might be profitably carried on in this country. We have seen some hundreds of cocoons in an establishment near Manchester. The gentleman calculates that an acre of mulberry-trees would suffice to produce 601 b. weight of silk, and that the ground would yield a profit to the far- mer of about £3O an acre. Dr. (now Sir John) Bowring, when in Manchester, said that the mulberry-tree was in- digenous to every climate, and that nature had so favoured us as to give a species suited to every country.—Man- chester Examiner. GROWTH or RIISSIA.—In 1722, the Czar, then Peter the Great, only swayed 14 millions of boyards and serfs ; but Russia was even then beginning to learn the art of robbing her neighbours—"obtaining material guarantees," the wise call it ; and, 40 years later, in 1762, she had "conveyed" to herself six millions more subjects, making 20 millions ; by 1795, Catharine, "the Semiramis (and Messalina) of the North," had raised the number of 36 millions ; in 1818 it was 45,500,000; and, in 1824, under the virtuous Alexander, it had grown to 60 millions. Nicholas has not been less lucky than his predecessors, and, as mentioned above, the 27 years of his great and ward in chancery, by a brother of the Countess of Ferrers A Miss Thornhill, 16 years of age, is a ward of chancery, and is possessed of a large fortune. Her guardian is a Mrs. Hungerford, who resides in Northamptonshire. Some time last year, guardian and ward went on a visit to Earl Ferrers' residence. They met there .a Mr. Chichester, a brother of the Countess of Ferrers. This gentleman is a member of the noble Irish family of Donegal, but is very poor and embarrassed. He seems to have sought the heiress, and the countess, his sister, was earnest in his suit. His object becoming known to the guardian, all communication was forbidden between countess' suitor, and ward. Nevertheless, Mr. Chichester did not give up the suit, but followed the heiress to the country, and sought to make her elope with him. To induce the young lady, whom he was in the habit of seeing each night at the window, he gave her letters of Lady Ferrers to him, wishing him success, and stating that, even with an elopement, she would be happy to receive her as a sister. This clandestine affair becoming known to Mrs. Hunger. ford, an attachment was sought for against the Countess of Ferrers and Mr. Chichester for inducing a ward of chancery to elope. The judgment was, that a sufficient case was made out against the lady, of whom the Lord Chancellor, notwithstanding, spoke with great severity, but the gentleman was committed for contempt. The young lady gave up some letters in the case, which, how- ever, only showed that Lady Ferrers was anxious that her brother should have the heiress. The following extract from the judgment of the Lord Chancellor explains the means taken by the fortune-hunter and his sister, to gain the affections of the young heiress :—" On the morning of their (Mr. and Mrs. Hungerford and Miss Thornhill's) arrival at Ascot, Mrs. Hungerford discovered, what asto- nished her, some fragments of a letter, which turned out, or which was suspected at that time, I believe, to be from Lady Ferrers, that had crossbars in different ink, of a different writing, and being a different matter that was written. It turned out to be written with lemon juice, which, it seems, when held to the fire, comes out in the form of a pale red writing ; and Mrs. Hungerford disco- vered what led her to believe that, whoever was writing these letters was writing an apparently open correspond- ence in black ink, and a concealed correspondence in this different ink or lemon juice, the clandestine writing being more or less an encouragement on the part of Lady Fer- rers to the young lady to give countenance to the suit of Mr. Chichester, Lady Ferrers' brother. Exactly what it was we do not know, but that that was the substance of it is manifest. Lady Ferrers had desired that she might be at liberty to send to the young lady a little basket in re- turn for the purse. That was very natural, and Mrs. Hungerford did not object to that ; but she said it would be better it should come through her, and that she would present it in Lady Ferrers' name. She did so, and that seemed all right; but, to the disgrace of Lady Ferrers— and I cannot attempt to qualify the exprVOD, for it was most disgraceful, and it must for ever er her in the society of her equals—in that basket wasi oncealed in the lining a letter written, not on paper, which would have made a crackling noise, and have excited attention, but written on linen—a secret encouragement to the ward— against the consent, or without the consent of her guar- dian, to give countenance to the suit of her brother, whom she admits, and whom all adinit, to be a man of deep embarrassment. Mr. Chichester, being rejected on the part of the guardian as an unfit suitor for the young lady, was forbidden to visit her at all ; but the course he took was this : Mr. and Mrs. Hungerford, and the young lady, ,% lived at Dingley-park, in Northamptonshire, which is only a mile or two from the town of Market Harborough. It ) seems that some time in August, Mr. Chichester, with purivuz IG.s.• his devoted 'subjects, or one-seventh more than the whole population over whom Peter the Shipwright exercised his iron rule.

CHAPLAINS FOR THE CRIMEA.—The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel received upwards of one hun- dred applications from clergymen desirous of proceeding as assistant-chaplains to the seat of war. Ten of these were selected, and have received their appointment from the War-office. Seven of this number have already left for the Crimea. A VISITATION was held by the Ven. Archdeacon Stone- house, in the Consistory Court of Lincoln Cathedral, on Thursday, the 9th inst., and afterwards adjourned to the White Hart Hotel, to hear three complaints against Wm, Middleton, the parish clerk of the parish of Stow. The charges against him were, annoying certain parties by grinning at them while passing to and from church, mis- behaviour at a wedding, and brawling during the reading of the sentences previous to the administration of the sacrament. The charges were fully sustained, and the clerk was dismissed from his office. THE BISHOP DESIGNATE OF SYDNEY.—The Right Rev. Dr. Frederick Barker, who has been appointed Lord Bishop of Sydney and Metropolitan of Australia, preached a farewell sermon to his congregation at Baslow, near Bakewell, Derbyshire, on Sunday week. The benefice which the bishop has vacated is but of a small annual value,and is in the gift of the Duke of Devonshire ; but the rown will, in all probability, claim the next pre- sentation ,according to the usual practice in such cases. Prior to his nomination to the incumbency of Baslow, last year, Dr. Barker was perpetual curate of St. Mary's Church, Edge-hill, Liverpool, an appointment which he held nearly twenty years. TUE FRIEND OF THE CLERGY.-011 Sunday, two ser- mons, in, aid of the Friend of the Clergy, were preached in the parish church of St. Giles's-in-the-Fields ;—that in the morning by the Rev. W. Cadman, rector of St. George's, Southwark. The rev, gentleman said that the society was established for two objects; one to secure permanent pro- vision for the widows and unmarried daughters of clergy- men of the Established Church, for those who were left by the death of their earthly supporter to the benevolence of the friends of Christ ; and to extend relief to clergymen under circumstances of temporary difficulties. It was imperative on the part of all members of the Church to support such a Society, to help the beloved ones of the man whose instructions and holy life had been a blessing to the district in which he had laboured, and had. from the necessities induced by the paltry pittance on which he was compelled to maintain himself and his family, been excluded from the intercourse with society to which he was fully entitled. The number of the clergy in England, Wales, and Ireland, amounted to 18,000; and it was be- lieved that the average income of the teachers of the

FUNDS, STOCK, AND SHARE MARKET, The announcement this morning that Parliament would assemble next month, and of the measures to be brought before it, combined with fresh indications of vacillation on the part of Austria, caused English Funds to open at a decline of per cent., from which, during the day, there has been no mainta►ned recovery.

mfined to words—for the acts of the Minist tend to confirm their insincerity when Lord RAGLAN landed in t From the time I le Crimea, with a 1 to to the work they had to perform, it was not until three sanguinary engagements had re- duced the Britsh contingent to about one-half their original numbers, and public indignation became I too loud to be misunderstood, that any exertions were made to compensate for the culpable delay by dispatching further reinforcements. Ii the avowed opinion of the master of the art of war— the great DUKE himself—that England should never be engaged in a little war ; but, despite the experience of his sage counsels, Lord RAGLAN was left to bear all the brunt of his dangerous position miserably short-handed—his men enduring the extremity of hardship and fatigue—until we could not help suspecting Lord ABERDEEN would have been better pleased at his defeat than to receive the bulletins of the glorious victories at Alma, at Balaklava, and at Inkermann. Many a family in England now mourns the bereavement of father, husband, son, and brother, cut off in the tre- mendous struggles of which we have published the details ; and the country mourns the irreparable loss of such men as Sir GEORGE CATHCART, and other able Generals. Had their fate been irreme- diable, our grief at their loss might have been less poignant, but we cannot remove the strong im- pression that, had the reinforcements which are now sent out with such celerity been despatched when their necessity was first apparent, the vic- tories so hardly gained might have been more effectual, and won with far less loss. We are quite aware of the uselessness of regrets for that which is past recal, and the inevitable necessity of pro- viding better for the future ; but the facts will form an important element in the question when Parliament is called upon to pronounce a verdict on the conduct of the Ministry. They have no plea of party obstruction, for the fullest confidence has been reposed in them; and had they exceeded all that was at one time anticipated, they would far more readily have obtained an indemnity for sending to the Crimea ten thousand men too many than they are entitled to receive for having sent too tew
