The public must be reminded that this is no accidental run, as the DREADNOUGHT has always made her passages both ways with steam-boat rapidity. It is almost unnecessary to state, that while the ship externally presents to the eye a perfect model of symmetrical proportion and beauty, her interior arrangements for passengers are of the moat complete and comfortable description, no expense or trouble having been spared by the owners, whose ships have been engaged in the carriage of passengers for the last twenty years, and who have been enabled, by that experience, to render her all that the emigrant could desire. It is uni- versally acknowledged, and has been much impressed upon shipowners and captains, by government emigration officers, that light, ventilation, space below, sufficiency of deck-room, and cleanliness, are amongst the most important requisites of a passenger ship. The DREADNOUGHT possesses these qualifications in every particular, and to the fullest extent ; in addition to which, her commander, Captain Samuels, is a gentleman of the highest nautical skill, and is famed for his kind attention to the wants of his passengers. His unwea- ried exertions in this respect have elicited battering testimo- nials on every passage. In consequence of the Wednesday's Steamers having ceased running to New York, for the present, this favourite ship affords an unusually advantageous opportunity for Cabin Passengers, (having about twenty berths still disengaged,) who will be taken on very moderate terms, in saloons not excelled by any sea-going steamer afloat. An inspection of the ship, which now lies in Waterloo Dock, will well repay a visit, and gratify the lovers of the scientific and beautiful in naval architecture.—For passage apply to BOWMAN, GRINNELL, and CO., 5, Regent-road, !,iverpool.

MANUFACTURES MANCHESTER.—AIthough a much more restricted demand is again observable in this market, there is still sufficient inquiry to sustain the improved position of producers. To some extent the more moderate proceed- ings of the week are due to an indisposition to accept the same low prices for goods, for future delivery, that were willingly taken for those in stock. There was a pretty steady demand on Tuesday ; but any attempt to obtain an advance met with decided discouragement, and since then there has been no disposition to concede anything beyond full previous rates. The decline in the Liverpool cotton market has tended still further to confirm the reluctance of buyers to operate at full prices. In yarns, the demand for both India and Germany has again fallen off, and the highest rates of last week are barely obtain- able. For the Levant and Mediterranean a steady inquiry continues, and manufacturers buy pretty freely at the more moderate quotations of the former week. Whilst the demand for India shirting's and other goods is again More moderate, the Greek houses have been large operators, both in light and the heavier descriptions. ROCHDALE.—As Christmas approaches, the demand for flannels is not quite so brisk as it has been. The wool market has been firm, and for brokes (broken wool) and noils a better price has been obtained. HUDDERSFIELD.—There is scarcely anything of im- portance to note in this market. All—merchants and manufacturers—•complain that they have nothing to do, as they should have at this period. Days of the market are as quiet as can well be conceived in a town that lately presented a busy aspect. Withal, prices appear to keep well up, and no inducements are offered beyond a few occasional job lots. LEEDS.—There is no change to notice in the state of the woollen trade this week. Business is on a limited scale, but prices are firm, and the tone of the trade is of a hopeful character. BRADFORD.—WooI: The spinners buy with great caution, and at the prices sought by the staplers it is impossible to cover cost. Notwithstanding all the dull- ness in the trade at the seat of consumption, there is no disposition on the part of the growers and country dealers to accept prices at all in accordance with what can be realised. Noils and brokers are firm, and held in small quantity.—Yarns : There is no inducement to increase the production, and as the majority of the spinners are only working daylight, and others not so much, the sup- plies are daily diminishing, and ruled yarns in stock can- not be found at present prices.—Pieces : In the ware- houses, for finished goods, the demand has been better, and the merchants have reduced their stocks far below usual average. This course has deterred the manufacturers from making, and the year will close with certainly not half the stock of goods as its predecessor. NOTTINGHAM.—The hosiery trade is finding partial employment for the workpeople, but there is still very muehless business doing than might reasonably be expected for the season ; as if business ran in its ordinary channels we ought to be busy preparing for the home spring trade. The lace trade is as dull as it always is at this period, with the exception perhaps of very narrow silk edgings which are being extensively used for bonnet trimmings. On the whole, however, each trade may be reported healthy; inas- much as the stocks on hand are small, and we have spring to look to instead of winter, which is encouraging. LEICESTER.—There is but little change in the state of trade this week. Through a succession of orders for the army in the Crimea, the workmen and the spinners have been more fully employed than had been expected at this season of the year. Prices of material remain as last quoted.

Treaty of Austria was not very precise in its terra, but he understood it to mean that, should b '4lssia not consent to terms of peace by the end of the year on the four bases, Austria would take 41t in the affiance defensive and offensive. This concluded the debate, and at nearly half- 'last two o'clock in the morning the address was teed to without a division. It will be seen from i'rthe tenor of the discussion, particularly from the ,I,.llPhatic statements made by Ministers in both that whatever might have been their pre- -1(1s views, they have had the sense to perceive the force of public opinion, and are now determined Prosecute the war with energy, even avowing then belief that the destruction of Sebastopol is 14(lispensable to the security of Turkey, and the 'preservation of the peace of Europe. Th of War very wisely abstained from justifying the neglect, which he attributed to inexperience, and promised that nothing should be left undone L° satisfy the most ardent aspirations for the hu- Minis- Miation of Russia. Under such circumstances "0111 Plaint is, in a great measure disarmed, and the Emperor of Russii may see that he has nothing to tlpeet from a want of unanimity in the English nation, THE TREATY WITH AUSTRIA WE have given in another column the text of the Treaty between Austria and the Western powers, the completion of which was announced pith such a flourish, that most persons were in- !Riled to believe the great European difficulty had L'een solved, and that the CZAR of Russia, alarmed at the consequences, would speedily sue for peace. , public have now an opportunity of judging for themselves ; and we are inclined to think that the majority will be reminded of the fable of "the ?fountain in labour." It requires something more than the tact of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, or the specious pleading of the most unscrupulous Minis- terial advocates, to persuade the people of England that any substantial advantage is secured by this vaunted Treaty. We had, indeed, far better make Itour minds to do without Austria, and bear our t manfully in the struggle, than place any dependence on the diplomatic shuffling which has evidently been employed in the drawing up of this Treaty. To put it into intelligible English, the three contracting parties, England, Austria, and France agree not, to make any arrangement with Russia, without first consulting each other. This Merely fetters England and France, without pledg- 112g Austria to anything. By the second article, Austria engages to defend the Danubian Princi- tlities against Russian invasion—a contingency 7dly anticipated—and allow the free passage of o" Allied troops through any portion of the terri- tjies,—a concession which it would have been Lausurd to refuse. By the third article, it is stipu- 'ted that, should hostilities break out between Austria and Russia, the Three Powers will mutu- ally assist each other—a condition purely for the 4(lvantage of Austria ; and the fourth article merely recites that, in the event of such a contingency, the first article shall apply. The fourth article stipulates that in case a peace should not be re- esp.t ...ablished in the course of the present-year, satis- factory to Austria, that Power will deberate with ir other Powers upon the best means of obtaining kind of vague undertaking which may be '44e to mean anything ; and the Treaty concludes nth a promise to communicate it to the Court of rassia. It would be very satisfactory if any one Would inform us what infinitesimal amount of advantage is secured to the Western Powers by thisl Treaty. We can readily understand that they have engaged not to conclude a peace without Austria, but in what phrase will be found au obli- gation on the part of Austria to afford any assist- ;ace ?

HOW TO PROLONG LIFE AND ENJOY IT. —THE GREAT PURIFYING AND STRENGTH- ENING MEDICINE. What though the sun in beauty shine, And you have countless hoards of wea'th ; What though the world—all, all was thine, If you but want the blessing, Health. Dr. DE ROOS' PILULiE VITAE, or VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS. A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages, concocted solely from the VEGETABLE kingdom; they may be administered to the youngest Child, or to the most delicate Invalid, by merely regulating the dose according to the age and strength of the person. Tliey remove all Disorders and Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms, Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Fulness after Meals, Indi- gestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of the Bowels, Listless- ness, Heat, Pain, and Jaundiced Appearance ; and while they act thus salutarily, they must of necessity increase the strength of the Patient. Headache, Giddiness, Singing in the Ears, Fluttering of the Sight, and other Heavy Drowsy Sensa- tions,—the forerunners of many fatal diseases,—as Apoplexy, Paralytic Strokes, Epilepsy, &c., are effectually warded off by a few doses of these Pills. They also produce sound refresh- ing Sleep, a keen Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy in invigorating the system, and imparting a pleasing serenity of mind. They are unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few instances, where occasionally employed in Families and Schools, will other assistance be needed. For Females they are truly excellent, removing Headaches, Depression of Spirits, Dizziness of Sight, Nervousness, Dim- ples, Sallowness, and giving a healthy juvenile bloom to the Complexion. Ladies, however delicate, will find them parti- cularly beneficial both before and after confinement. For Elderly People they are the most comfortable Medicine that can be taken. Persons going Abroad, Captains, and others, cannot store more important articles of health than the above, which, by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent abroad; as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental to long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest can be properly furnished without them, for when far removed from medical aid, they will find in these Pills a never-failing restorative. Mr. Smith, St. Ives: "Since taking your Pills I have not once required the services of a medical man, and feel satisfied this would be the case generally, if people were not so much governed by prejudice."—T. Webster, Esq., Sleaford, near Melton Mowbray: "Having read your advertisement, I felt assured your Pills would be of use to some or my poorer neighbours. I have had 12 boxes, and they have derived great benefit from taking them. I shall continue to recom- mend your valuable Pills to all my friends."— Mr. Edwin Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax : "I find your Pilulm Vitae a very pleasant medicine in removing headache."—Maent- wrog, Tan-y-Bwlch, North Wales: " Mr. Warner's compli- ments to Dr. De Roos, and he finds no medicine do him so much good as his Pilulm IMPORTS NT.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for Dr. DE ROOS' Pills, have attempted to foist upon the Pur- chaser other Medicines, or trash of their own compounding, from which they obtain a larger profit.

The saloon table will be supplied in a most abundant and ample manner, including wines, spirits, &c., upon the plan adopted by the London Australian ships. Price, Sixty Guineas per adult.

HOUSE OF LORDS, LAST NIGHT Lord BROUGHAM expressed his concurrence with the policy of the Government in respect to Austria. Earl GRAY moved for copies of the orders in council with reference to the Fourth Secretary of State and divi- sion of war and colonial departments. The Duke of NEWCASTLE entered into some explana- tion of the changes. Earl DYSART condemned the proposed measure for embodying a foreign legion. The third reading of the Foreign Enlistment Bill introduced, and again strenuously opposed the measure. His opinion of the bill remained unaltered; nor could he feel confidence in German troops equal to that which llnkerman. The Government could have done nothing more impolitic. Let them appeal to the people of England. In conclusion, he announced his intention, at an early period, to discuss the war policy of Ministers, of the result of which he entertained the deepest apprehension. I The Marquis of LANSDOWNE denounced the fears of the e exaggerations. The superm number of troops possessed by Russia justified our havin noble ea s incredil I-------- - - The Earl of DERBY still believed that the bill was ur. constitutional, and would discourage the country frc coming forward. Our North American colonies• cou supply a large addition to the army. Lnrd HARDINGE explained the effect of the two sets I articles of v as applicable to foreign Earl GREY thought it would be Bette: clause relative to the articles of war. He tl objection could be offered to the measure a and hoped the bill would be allowed to pass After some observations from Earl G rid of th Mr. WHITESIDE brought in a bill, which was react a first time, relating to Juries in Ireland. The FOreign Enlis a first time fr. DISIZAI at Bill was brought up and react 'e notice that he should offer this bill is most uncompromising opposition.

PROVISIONS LIVERPOOL, DEc. Is.—The new beef referre our last is landed, but it does not sell readily, the high price at which it is held deterring purchasers, who, at present prices, will only buy as their wants require; old, of low quality, has been more inquired for. In pork the business has been trifling, without change in prices ; a small parcel of new has arrived. The demand for bacon is of a retail character, prices are about supported, but holders continue to meet buyers freely. For shoulders the inquiry is not active. Lard is again lower Gd to Is per cwt , without leaning to activity. At the reduced prices for cheese there is a more active demand. DEC. 18.—There is no improvement to report of the butter market, which continues heavy ; the transactions have been on a limited retail scale since our last report. Although the imports are but moderate, stocks increase. Holders of choice qualities are tolerably firm, but if buyers of middling and inferior descriptions were to appear, a decline of from 2s to 3s per cwt. would be sub- mitted to. Select brands of Waterford, 97s to 100 ; Kilkenny, Cloumel, Carlow, and Wexford, 95s to 99s ; Limerick and Sligo, 91s to 95s ; and pickled Cork, seconds, 90s to 92s per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland, from the 9th to the 15th instant, both inclusive, 10,033 firkins, 21 kegs, 238 crocks, 213 boxes, 205 barrels butter, 148 bales bacon, 14 hhds. 14 tierces hams, 10 tierces and 23 kegs lard.

What though the sun in beauty shine, And you have countless hoards of wea`th ; What though the world—all, all was thine, If you but want the blessing, Health. Dr. DE ROOS' PILULE VILE, or VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS. A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages, concocted solely from the VEGETABLE kingdom; they may be administered to the youngest Child, or to the most delicate Invalid, by merely regulating the dose according to the age and strength of the person. They remove all Disorders and Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms, Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Fulness after Meals, Indi- gestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of the Bowels, Listless- ness, Heat, Pain, and Jaundiced Appearance ; and while they act thus salutarily, they must of necessity increase the strength of the Patient. Headache, Giddiness, Singing in the Ears, Fluttering of the Sight, and other Heavy Drowsy Sensa- tions,—the forerunners of many fatal diseases,—as Apoplexy, Paralytic Strokes, Epilepsy, &c., are effectually warded off by a few doses of these Pills. They also produce sound refresh- ing Sleep, a keen Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy in invigorating the system, and imparting a pleasing serenity of mind. They are unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few instances, where occasionally employed in Families and Schools, will other assistance be needed. For Females they are truly excellent, removing Headaches, Depression of Spirits, Dizziness of Sight, Nervousness, Dim- ples, Sallowness, and giving a healthy juvenile bloom to the Complexion. Ladies, however delicate, will find them parti- cularly beneficial both before and after confinement. For Elderly People they are the most comfortable Medicine that can be taken. Persons going Abroad, Captains, and others, cannot store more important articles of health than the above. which, by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the Nervous System, wilt prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent abroad ; as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental to long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest can be properly furnished without them, for when far removed from medical aid, they will find in these Pills a never-failing restorative. Mr. Smith, St. Ives: "Since taking your Pills I have not once required the services of a medical man, and feel satisfied this would be the case generally, if people were not so much governed by prejudice."—T. Webster, Esq., Sleaford, near Melton Mowbray: " Having read your advertisement, I felt assured your Pills would be of use to some of my poorer neighbours. I have had 12 boxes, and they have derived great benefit from taking them. I shall continue to recom- mend your valuable Pills to all my friends."— Mr. Edwin Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax:"l find your Pilula Vita a very pleasant medicine in removing headache."—Maent- wrog, Tan-y-Bwlch, North Wales: "Mr. Warner's compli- ments to Dr. De Roos, and lie finds no medicine do him so much good as his Pilules Vita." Ist PORTA NT.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for Dr. DE ROOS' Pills, have attempted to foist upon the Pur- chaser other Medicines, or trash of their own compounding, from which they obtain a larger profit. The GENUINE have the words " WALTER DE ROOS. LONDON," in white let- ters on the red ground printed in the stamp, affixed to each Box, by special direction of Her Majesty's Honouralile Com- missioners, to protect the Public from Fraud, and to imitate which is Felony. May be obtained through all Medicine Vendors, at Is. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., 1 s., and 335. per Box, with Directions for Use, &c., or by enclosing Post-office Order or Stamps to Dr. DE ROOS, 10, Berner's.street, Oxford-street, London, they will be sent per return.

PINAIWEa, With reference to financial affairs, he referred them to the report of the Secretary of the-Treasury, from which it appeared that the amount of revenue during the last fiscal year, from all sources, was $73,549,705, and the public expenditure, exclusive of payments on account of the public debt, amounted to $51,018,249. During the same period the payments made in redemption of the public debt, including interest and premium, amounted to $24,336,380. To the sum total of the receipts of that year was to be added a balance remaining in the treasury at the commencement thereof, amounting to $21,942,892, and at the close of the year a corresponding balance, amounting to $21,137,967 of receipts above expenditure, also remained in the• treasury. Although, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Treasury, the receipts of the cur- rent fiscal year were not likely to equal in amount those of the last, yet they would undoubtedly exceed the amount of expenditure by at least fifteen millions of dollars. He should, therefore, continue to direct that the surplus reve- nue be applied, so far as it can be judiciously and econo. mically done, to the reduction of the public debt, the amount of which, at the commencement of the last fiscal year, was $67,340,628, of which there had been paid on the 20th day of November, 1854, the sum of 522,365,172, leaving a balance of outstanding public debt of only $44,975,456, redeemable at different periods within four- teen years. There were also remnants of other govern- ment stock, most of which were already due, and on which the interest had ceased, but which had not yet been pre- sented for payment, amounting to $233,179. This state- ment exhibited the fact, that the annual income of the government greatly exceeded the amount of its public debt, which latter remained unpaid only because the time of payment had not yet matured, and it could not be dis- charged at once, except at the option of public creditors, who preferred to retain the securities of the United States ; and the other fact, not less striking, that the annual revenue from all sources exceeded, by many millions of dollars, the amount needed for a prudent and economical administration of the government. He renewed his recommendation for a reduction of the duties on imports, and trusted that little difficulty would be encountered in settling the details of &measure to that effect. He recommended, in consequence of the treasury having been defrauded to the extent of $198,000 by officers making false entries, that a law should be passed requiring that records and papers of a public character should be left by retiring-officers of the Government for the use of their successors, and that a provision declaring it felony on their part to make false entries in the books or return false accounts should be added. The President recommended an increase to the military force in the country inhabited by the Indians, the atrocities of whom had recently shocked the public mind of the country.

The Know-Nothings had sut seeded in electing their candidate for the comptrollership of San Francisco. The overland immigrants had received considerable molestation from the Indians. MEXlCo.—Advices from Mexico and Texas state that a large force of Mexican troops had gathered at Matamoros, and General Well had summoned the Seminole chief, Wild Cat, and his followers there, and it was supposed that they were wanted for some secret mission. A Vigi- lance Committee had been appointed at Point Isabel. Indian depredations were continuing, and three soldiers from Fort Davies had been killed. On the 2d November an English steamer, with $70,000 dollars on board, sank in the port of Vera Cruz. General Parry, Ex-Governor of Venezuela, had been on a visit to Santa Anna. A number of persons had been banished. The papers of the capital report further successes by the government over the revo- lutionists. wo others fired CUBA.—Advices from Havana contain a correspondence between the captain-general and the naval commandant, the former impressing upon the latter the necessity of suppressing the traffic in slaves, and the latter promising to use his efforts energetically_ for that object. VENEZUELA.—Monegas had been elected president. He had proclaimed a partial amnesty, after causing the exe- cution of Vasquez, who was tortured to death, and after- wards buried outside the city like a dog. Small lots of new coffee had come in.

expecte fluctuations, have fairly maintained their value, and money for commercial purposes has been com- hough without any great im- paratively easy provement. The returns of the Bank-of-England, on Friday, show another increase in the stock of bullion, to the extent of £135,421, but the other changes are not of particular moment. It appears by a recent telegraphic despatch from China, that a treaty has been arranged with Japan, by which two ports are to be open to British trade. In the Cotton manufacturing districts, a very fair amount of business has been doing for several descriptions of goods, and the prospects of pro- ducers are considered, more favourable, from the reduced price of the raw material. The Woollen trade is slightly better, and stocks are considerably reduced, so that there is some prospect of amend- ment. The Hosiery trade is also partially active ; but the Lace trade is very dull. Th 9 return from the Bank of England for the week ending the sth of Dec., gives the following results, when compared with the previous week : £5,545,408 ; Increase 9,691,373 ; Decrease 3,124,711 ; Increase £505,515 67,873 3,069 On the other side of the account— Government securities.. £11,604.267, Increase Other securities .. ... 13,732,473; Increase £86,529 22,005 301,160 Notes unemployed The amount of notes in circulation is £19,405,585 being a decrease of £211,205 ; and the stock of bullion in both departments is £14,005,444, show- ing an increase of £135,421, when compared with the preceding return £27,334,415 BANKING DEPAIITMENT Prop.

Con- siderable purchases have been made of 'Midlands, East Lancashire, Leeds; and other stocks that are currently dealt in ; London stock, also, has parti- cipated in the advance, though not quite to the same extent as the others. It is said that this company and the Great Western have arranged their differences, and that they will now work in harmony.

CorroN.—The tone of the market during the week has been dull and heavy, and prices have given way about 1-16 d. to *d. per lb. on mid- dling, and *d. to Id. on fair qualities. The sales of the week up to Friday amounted to 38,290 bales, of which 1,410 were taken on specu- lation, and 3,690 for export, leaving 33,190 for the trade. To-DAY the advices per Canada were re- ceived, with further accounts of a most abundant crop, computed to exceed any previous year. It had not, however, much effect on this market. The sales reached 7,000 bales, including 300 on speculation, and 700 for export ; and though the market was heavy, quotations are not reduced.

William Smith Watson, for forgery on Mr. Steel, a broker, at Liverpool, fifteen months' imprisonment. —James Donnelly, for robbery, eighteen months' imprisonment. ALLEGED MURDER NEAR MANCHESTER. Alfred Ogden, (about 30,) silk weaver, was indicted for the wilful murder of James Kershaw, at Chadderton, near Man- chester. Mr. Monk for the prosecution. Mr. Tindal Atkinson defended the prisoner. The case was briefly this : —On the night of the 30th November, the deceased left his home, stating that he was going to attend a lecture. He did not return home, and his body was found in a canal near his own house. It appeared that instead of going to the lecture he went to the prisoner's house, and tapped at the window, having an attachment for one of his sisters. The prisoner went out to see who had tap- ped at the window, and he overtook the deceased, who was running away. A struggle took place between them, and the deceased was never again seen alive. When the pri- soner returned to his house, almost immediately after he had left, he said to his sister,—" I overtook him, and we had a struggle. He left his watch and cap in my hand, and I called him back, but he would not come." On the following day the prisoner went to the deceased's house, and after telling his mother what had happened, he gave up the watch and cap. As the deceased had not returned home, search was made, and his body was discovered as stated. His Lordship told the jury that there was not the 'slightest evidence to connect the prisoner with the apparent murder of the deceased, and the prisoner was accordingly acquitted. MANSLAUGHTER AT LIVERPOOL. James Malone, 44, seaman's boardinghouse-keeper, Maghull-street, in this town, was indicted for the manslaughter of John Brothers, a seaman. Mr. Blair prosecuted, and the prisoner was de- fended by Mr. Monk and Mr. Aspinall. The deceased, in a state of intoxication, went to the prisoner's house, and used very abusive language, creating a great disturbance in the street. He was turned out of the house, and desired to go away twice, but he persisted, and threw stones against the windows. The prisoner pushed him down the steps into the street, and afterwards came round from the back of the house, and a scuffle ensued, in which the deceased was believed to have received a blow which knocked him down. He was taken to the Southern Hospital, where he died next afternoon. Mr. Rayston, house surgeon of that institu- tion, said the cause of death was effusion of blood on the brain, which was more likely to have been caused by a fall than a blow. Several witnesses stated that the deceased fell against the iron railing of the prisoner's house ; and, at his Lordship's direction, the jury acquitted the prisoner. Gidlow) any insult lik THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL said to a named 'Spencer, that I should like to meet Gidlow on my way to the well. I don't know much of Spencers. They are people I have not wasted my words up( know a mason named Fairclough. and I don't never fold him that I would go for water, and that Peace would back me out. I never was told by Mr. Peace to go to the well. I went to the well the morning after Mr. Watmough called (although I had not gone for the water for six weeks before, having paid to have it fetched), because the other wells were muddy. I don't remember whether there had been any rain on the two days before, but the ground was quite dry, as if there had not. I saw Mr. Watmough at my lord's office, and gave him and Mr. Peace an account of what had occurred. Mr. Watmough was sent with me to Wigan, to Mr. Mayhew, Lord Crawford's attorney, and he sent for a medical man. His LORDSHIP —Oh, he sent for the medical man. (To Sergeant Wilkins), I can hardly suppress my indign that the proceedings of a criminal court should be to .press a matter which is strictly a question for a civil court. Nobody can pity this poor woman more than I do. The result of this prosecution, be it what it may, is im- material, because the sentence is in my hand A consultation between the legal gentlemen here took place. Cross-examination resumed :—I didn't go before the justice because I had no money. I never heard that there was a county court at Wigan, though I live only three miles off. At this stage of the examination, Sergeant WILKINS rose and said—l am willing, and I believe the other side are willing, but for one circumstance, that it should be arranged for these matters in dispute to be finally settled by some competent person. Mr. Gidlow says, if he now consents to have it settled, the statements of the prosecutrix will go forth to the world uncontradicted. I cannot stand up here to say that what she has said is false. I don't think myself Mr. Gidlow's reputation would be the least injured, and no doubt there would be no ob- jection, if Mr. Gidlow wishes it, to have the award pub- lished. His LORDSHIP :—I don't hesitate to say that their in- terests, as men of property, would certainly be most mate- rially consulted, and their happiness for years secured, if they got an arbitrator to arrange the matters of contest be- t weeen them. With regard to what is in Mr. Gidlow's mind, Mr. MONK begged his lordship's pardon for interrupt- ing him, but he wished to make some remarks on the same subject. Mr. Gidlow had purchased, in 1853, the Arley- hall estate. He went there to spend the rest of his days in quietness. Instead of obtaining that peace which he had expected, he found himself, through a course of cir- cumstances to which he would not further allude, quarrel- ling with this woman, his new character in the neighbour- hood assailed, and himself charged with using such violence that, if he had been told of any one else using it, he would have been the first to have condemned it. lie (Mr. Mouk) had evidence to prove that nearly the whole of the wo- man's evidence was false. His LORDSHIP thought it might be more satisfactory to the jury to have the matter explained to them. He thought the woman had made use of exaggeration in her telling of the story ; and his own opinion was, that there was not more violence used than was necessary to keep the well. With regard to what had been said about damages to this woman, there were plenty of courts open without coming into that court. The law of the land was, that any person had a right to protect his property from trespass. It was not a question of a cottager trying her right to the well, for they saw that. Mr. Watmough came round the night before and ordered her to draw water from the well. She went to the well, persevered in a manner that must strike every one by its pertinacity, and Mr. Gidlow made use of force to drive her from the water. Looking at the man who had to be judged by them, and looking at the woman, he did not think it likely that he would have beaten her with a stick as he dragged her along, as she had stated. He could hardly sit with calmness to see a criminal court made use of to test a matter that was en- tirely a civil question. They would have to say whether Mr. Gidlow had been guilty of an indictable offence. The foreman asked the Court if Mr. Gidlow had brought an action of trespass against the prosecutrix ? His Lordship replied that Mr. Gidlow could not have obtained any satisfactory decision without bringing the case to an assize, and throwing away £lOO or £2OO. He might have taken this woman up for trespass, but that would have left the question quite open as regarded others. This matter was only an indication of the under- current of the matters in dispute between the parties. The jury then returned a verdict of " not guilty." Sergeant Wilkins then said, with reference to the second indictment he bad looked carefully through the depo- sitions, and was bound to admit that he did not consider they would succeed.. He was willing to leave the matter to be arranged. _ _ _ _ His Lordship asked whether the defence would allow the arbitrator to have power to settle everything in dispute. Mr. JA.AtEs, who was for the defence on the second in- dictment, said, Mr. Gidlow could not go quite so far as that, as there was no right in dispute about the mine. James Gidlow, Thomas &dim, and Thomas Batters- by, were then indicted for attempting to commit a felony, to wit, trying to let in water to flood a certain mine, in order to prevent its working. No evidence being offered, the prisoners were acquitted. TO THE ED: Sty aye, and lnkern this must not be. No woman pr !net. x es' le funds el I am, Sir, your December 19, 1854. tution was about £9O. John Parkinyton, 23, weaver, charged with having, at Blackburn, on the 11th October, feloniously attempted to murder Jane Long, by throwing her into a canal, was ac- quitted. Mr. Blair prosecuted; the prisoner was undefended. Anthony Danson, alias Hornby, 29, labourer, and Ed- ward Heyes, 22, butcher, charged with garroting and robbing George Stopford at Sea Ashton, on the 25th No- vember, were found guilty, and sentenced to fifteen years' transportation. Mr. Cross prosecuted. William Priest, 45, hawker, indicted for the man- slaughter of James Lord, a toll keeper, at Eccles, on the 4th December, was found guilty, but recommended to mercy, as the evidence tended to prove that when the pri- soner drove on the cart and kicked down the deceased he believed the road was clear. Sentenced to one month's imprisonment. James Dean, 20, labourer, charged with wilful and corrupt perjury at Lancaster, on the 22nd of August, in swearing falsely to an alibi, was found guilty, and recom- mended to mercy. Sentence deferred. The court adjourned at seven o'clock until nine this morning. (Before Mr. Justice Crompton) The court sat at ten o'clock, when Thomas Holdeh, 49, baud-loom weaver, previously convicted of bigamy, and Wm. Mellor, 28, bricklayer, who pleaded guilty to a simi- lar offence, were sentenced—the former to twelve months', and the latter to one month's, imprisonment with hard labour. MANSLAUGHTER.—James Clegg, 33, collier, was in- dicted for having feloniously killed and slain Elizabeth Smith, his married sister, at Over Darwen, near Black- burn, on Sunday, the 12th of November, during a family quarrel. The prisoner had brought a man home with him, when his wife remonstrated, saying that all their victuals were needed for their children. He beat her, and his mother and sister interfered to prevent him, and he kicked the latter, who was in an advanced state of preg- nancy, from the effects of which she died next day. Mr. Whigham prosecuted, and Mr. Monk defended the pri- soner, who was acquitted. Peter Holcroft, charged with feloniously stabbing John Culshaw, in the high road at Croxton, on the 2nd of October, was found guilty, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. Mr. Cross prosecuted. Mr. Whigham appeared for the prisoner. Henry Ashton, 20, charged with a garotte robbery, at Manchester, in company with two other persons, on the 2nd of November, was convicted and sentenced to four years' penal servitude. The court rose shortly after half-past six, until this morning. VENTRILOQUIS3I.—From an advertisement it will be seen that Mr. Macmillan, the celebrated ventriloquist, will give a series of his favourite entertainments in the Concert- ball, Lord Nelson-street, this evening, and on Thursday and Friday nights, LANCASHIRE MILITIA. The second regiment of Lancashire Militia assembled yesterday in Liverpool, under command of Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Thomas G. Hesketh, for permanent duty. As yet it is not known whether they will remain here, or be sent on service to some other district. The officers' mess was held as usual in the Adelphi Hotel. CHURCH OF ENGLAND INSTITI7TION.—Last night a lecture in connexion with this institution was delivered in Hope Hall, Hope-street, by the Rev. Joseph Bardsley, B.A. The lecture was the third of a series of six, and itsisubject was " The Life and Times of Archbishop Cranmer." After briefly glancing at the condition of Europe as regards religion, at, or rather immediately pre- ceding the reformation, the lecturer proceeded to give a ra- pid outline of the early. life and history of Cranmer, al- luding er-3-44-1- :Iran mer's marriage; ;Ory of t ADVERTISER.

CoNo' THE PATRIOTIC FUND Hon. Secs THE concert given by the pupils at the Collegiate Insti- aost successful, the receipts amounting to On Tuesday evening, Professor Bushell gave a benefit, in the Argyle-rooms, Birkenhead, in aid of the fund. The net proceeds amounted to £5 2s. 6d. The pupils at Dr. Ihne's school, Carlton-terrace, Upper Parliament-street, have contributed £7 2s. 6d. towards the fund. On Tuesday evening, a meeting of the inhabitants of Ince-Blundell was held in the school-room at that place, for the purpose of adopting means for raising contributions in aid of the Patriotic Fund. On the motion of Mr. Lynass, seconded by Mr. Thomas Baines, the chair was taken by Mr. Henry Hyde. A resolution, moved by Mr. Hyde, and seconded by Mr. John Heyes, was adopted, to the effect, that the utmost endeavours should be used to collect sub- scriptions in the township ; and Mr. Lynass and Mr. Hamilton were appointed to wait on the inhabitants for that purpose. Subscriptions were announced at the meeting amounting to upwards of £2O. The list of sub- scribers was headed by ThomaS Weld Blundell, Esq., with the sum of £lO. The employk in Compton House havin some time aid of the Patriotic Fund, with the exception of the ap- prentices, 28 in number, whose aid had not been solicited, the latter resolved not to be outdone in liberality, and arranged to give a concert, the proceeds of which should be devoted to the Patriotic Fund. On Friday evening, accordingly, the concert took place in the library and reading-room of Compton House, through the kind and considerate permission of the principals of the establish- ment. The entertainment was numerously attended; and, in the course of the evening, Mr. William Jeffrey sug- gested a different destination of the money. He begged to say that there were, as he had ascertained, fifty soldiers' wives, with eighty children, now in great distress in Liverpool. To many of them Compton House had afforded some employment in the way of needle-work ; but the majority of them were in deep distress —hungry, without a bed to lie on, or a blanket to cover them. He proposed to hand over the proceeds to the committee still existing, for their relief. This was agreed to. _ _ The Welsh concert, which was intended to come off on a grand scale, for the benefit of the Patriotic Fund, has been abandoned, owing to the building committee having refused the use of St. George's Hall. The amount subscribed in Glasgow to the fund, up to Friday last, was £36,913 19s. 11d. PATRIOTIC FUND.—The workmen of Mr. James Bil- linge, lock and hinge manufacturer, Ashton, near Wigan, subscribed, on Saturday last, £2O 3s. 6d. to this fund ; and the workmen of Messrs. Shaw and Billinge subscribed ls, 2d. to the same benevolent object. TILE BOARD OF TRADE have given notice that a sub- marine telegraphic cable has been lail down from Vedbek, on the coast of Sixland, to the vicinity of Hillesborg, and sets forth the beacons, and requests mariners not to anchor within those marks or bearings. TIIEHIINGARIAN BAND, we perceive, is to give a perform- ance every evening this week in Hime's Music-hall, Bold- street ; and on Saturday they will give an additional entertainment, in the same place, at two o'clock afternoon. CA trnoN.—Advertisements have appeared addressed to butchers and others, stating that a supply of hides and skins, either by contract or commission, is wanted regu- larly, and an address is given at the skin-market, Ber- mondsey. Before entrusting property to strangers, some enquiry should be made as to their responsibity. Our enquiries in this direction have proved by no means satisfactory. - NEW STOREHOUSE FOR THE MILITIA.—In the militia exercising field, near St. Domingo•road, a building is now nearly finished, which is intended as a depot for that corps. The structure does not possess any striking architectural beauty, being simply erected of common brick and red sand stone; indeed, were it not for the royal arms placed over the entrance gate, it might be readily taken for a range of stabling to the adjoining splendid mansion, which is now called St. Edward's College. In form it is square, and two storeys in height, with a commodious court-yard in the centre. TAKING POISON 33Y MISTAKE.—A melancholy case of this description occurred last week, which resulted in the death of Mrs. Chalk, wife of Mr. Chalk, licensed victualler, St. John's-lane. Deceased complained that she was suffer- ing from a bilious attack, and went to take some tartaric acid, but by accident mixed a portion of arsenic in the glass of water instead of the acid. On discovering her mistake, she took an emetic of salt and water, and Dr. Slack was sent for, but•his attendance was unsuccessful, and Mrs. Chalk died on Saturday. The arsenic had been kept in the house some time for the purpose of poisoning rats. An inquest was held yesterday, and a verdict re- turned that the mistake was accidental. DEATH FROM BURNING.—An inquest was held yes. terday, on the body of Lucy. Green, aged 7 years, daugh- ter of Patrick Green, shoemaker, 47, Cavendish-street, whose clothes caught fire on the Ist instant, as she was standing on a stool to reach a picture from the mantel- piece; and she was so severely burnt that she died on Saturday last. Verdict, accidentally burnt. DROWNING.—On Friday evening, a man named Joseph Sutton, aged 43, residing at No. 1, Earl-street, who had been to the Isle of Man, returned with his son by the steamer, and landed at the Pier-head. Both father and son were in a state of intoxication, and the son crossed the drawbridge, but his father said, " I will not go over that bridge." When the son turned round, he missed his father, and went in search of him, but saw him no more until his body was brought to the deadhouse, having been found by William Ward, a boatman, four miles up the river. No account was given as to the manner in which he got into the water, and at the inquest, which was held yesterday, a verdict was returned accordingly. SEAMXN'S ADVANCE NoTEs.—The seamen of the barque Protector, Captain H. Simmons, bound hence to Jamaica, which vessel put into Holyhead, during the late gale, having refused to proceed in the ship, were brought up last week before the magistrates, who ordered them to be discharged. A new crew were dispatched from Liver- pool to supply their place ; they also refused to go to sea, and were brought up before the authorities, who ordered them to be committed for one month. These cases, which are now of daily occurrence, are mainly, if not solely, attributable to the allowance of " advance notes," and so long as the present system remains as it is, the shipping interests will continue to suffer severely. CHURCH Or ENGLAND YOUNG MEN'S SOCIETY.—A lecture was delivered in connexion with this society on Thursday evening last, in Hope-hall, Hope-street, by the Rev. W. F. Taylor, M.A. The evening was extremely unfavourable, notwithstanding there was a very con- siderable number of persons present, the hall being tolerably filled. The subject of. the lecture was " The claims of the Church on young men." The Rev. lecturer an evil world, and to bear the knowledge of salvation to the ends of the earth, to make an aggression on the moral wastes of the world at large,_ nor even cease her labours, solemn command to the holy Apostles, been preached in all the world, and to every creature. Ile briefly touched le Church in this country from its first introduction to the present time, wnere sne not wuy presents an aspect of energetic activity and zeal for the advancement of her Master's cause, but has also sent out her bishops, priests, and deacons to every part of her widely-extended colonial empire. Still much remains to be done not only in our own land but through- out the world. South Ameiica is in almost total darkness : Pagan and Papal superstition overspread that extensive continent. Africa is divided between the followers of the false Prophet and the captives of heathenism. India, with its one hundred and fifty millions ; and China, with its three hundred millions, call aloud for aid. In the latter country, the corrupt' Church of Rome has no less than 13 bishops and 160 missionary pries whilst Eng: pure and Apostolic Church has but one bishop and some - Twe 0:,.. l.n an I.r. aa +1 a. on 11 ail nnnn nen-Of the Church to' join themselves to ih LATEST ing on the Bth INTELLIGENCE. —Print occurred at Sebastopol up to that date. Tl,e fire of the allies continued to be very weak, and caused the Russians scarcely any loss. CONiTAIiTINOPLE, DEC. 7th.—From the 28th of Nov. to the 3rd of Dec. no guns were placed in the newly-con- structed batteries, the weather being so bad and the mire so deep. The Turks had arrived at Balaklava, and it was found very difficult to provide food for them. The Russian army had quitted the valley for the heights commanding the Tchernaya. Deserters say that the Russians suffer much. Every evening the garrison opens a fire of artillery ou the French position, and make sorties, which are always repulsed with loss. During the day the enemy's fire is slack. The soldiers are constructing huts. In the morning of the 2nd the Russians attacked an advanced guard of the 50th Regiment, which retired. The Rifles advanced to its assistance, drove back the Russians, and forced them to quit their positions. The Turks are suffer- ing from sickness. The cholera has reappeared among them. Omar Pasha had orders to send 30,000 men with all speed to the Crimea. On the 30th of Nov. an insur- rection broke out at Latakia, Syria, among the mountain- eers. The Governor marched against them with 2,000 men, and, being killed by a shot, the soldiers retreated. The discussion in the Spanish Cortes on the matter of the Rivas Ministry has ended in no result. Advices from Munich of the 15th announce that King Louis has been seized with an apoplectic fit at Darmstadt. Later advices state that the condition of His Majesty was improving. Advices from Vienna of the 16th announce the official publication of the treaty with the Western Powers.

ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS. The Year 1855 bids fair to be one of the most important and eventful of modern history. On the 6th of January, 1835, wilt be issued the first number of a New Volume of the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, and not merely a New Vo- lume, but of a New Year—each Volume being perfect and complete in itself—containing, for the time, a faithful record, pictorial and descriptive, of all Events of Interest in every part of the World. To that limited portion of the Public who do not subscribe to this Journal, it may be stated, that no period could be selected more opportune for commencing— the whole expense being but Twenty-six Shillings per Annum, exclusive of double numbers, which are issued on rare occa- sions, when it would be impossible to crowd the important events and engravings into a single number; for this small sum the Subscriber will receive twenty-four large Pages— seventy-two Columns—of the most interesting information, carefully selected from the News of the Week, interspersed with a variety of charm' nu; Ari isles on thechief topics of the day. The ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS has, by its impartial and consistent advocacy of the welfare of the Public, secured for itself a political influence scarcely second to any News• paper in the Empire; and reference can, with some pride, be made to the support afforded to all beneficial measures, pro- posed and adopfed by the English Parliament. Foreign Politics will ever command the attention (which ought to be devoted to so important a feature of a News- paper. On the question of the Russian War, during the year 1854, ONE THOUSAND ENGRAVINGS appeared in the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS. Extensive arrangements, calculated to improve this popular Journal, and engagements, such as will greatly enrich its Literary, Scientific, and other departments, have been made, and will thus combine on this Paper the greatest talent of the day. The ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS has been established thirteen years, during which period it has received a greater degree of encouragement and approbation than any Journal ever published. This is proved by the Returns of Stamps issued from time to time by order of Parliament. The Stamps applied for the first biX months of 1854 was upwards of 2,734,ooo—showing a WEEKLY CIRCULATION of UP- WARDS of ONE HUNDRED and THIRTY THOUSAND COPIES ! Terms (payment in advance)—Half-year, l3a. 6d. ; Year, 21s. Any of the Volumes of the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, from the commencement to the present time, may now be had, in paper or cloth. Covers for Bindinz the Volumes, 2a. fol. each. All Numbers may be sent free by Post to any part of the Kingdom and the Colonies. Give an order for Six Months, to insure all the gratuitous Prints and Supplements. Supplied by all Booksellers and Newsmen. The ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS is published in London every Saturday, Stamped, to go free by Post, Sixpence per Copy. OFFICE, 199, STRAND, LONDON.

supplies were due to inexperience in carrying on a war of such magnitude after forty years of peace, but after all the Government had lately done, they would still send more,—more men, more ammu- nition, and more supplies of all kinds, as far as they could obtain ships to carry them.

They were too,late in declaring war—too late in deciding that. the The Earl of CARLISLE made a few remarks, in which he agreed in an'that had been said in admiration of the valour of the army and navy. He could not deny that the war was a just war, but he was not equally convinced of its necessity. The Earl of ABERDEEN, in concluding the die' cussion, made the unexpected admission, that be considered the destruction of Sebastopol of vital importance to the safety and independence of the Turkish empire. He believed that nothing could contribute so much as their success in the Crimea, to the probability of obtaining terms of peace, and with reference to . the Treaty with Austria, be denied that it contained any engagement to or port that Power in Italy, Hungary, or Poland, or that such an engagement had ever entered their minds. The Address was them agreed to without passage of the Pruth'was a cases belli—too late in sending troops to the Black Sea—too late in inter- fering for the protection of the Turkish fleet destroyed at Sinopo—too late in providing t_►oops and the necessary funds for the expenses : and-that, until after the battle of Inkerman, no reinforce- ments but mere driblets had been sent to. the Crimea. He complained of the detention of" the troops at Varna, where they suffered greatly from disease, and commented on the want of proper necessaries at the 'hospital at Scutari, which had been supplied by.private benevolence. Ho made these remarks with no wish to embarrass the Government, but. he charged them with utter un- consciousness of what they were about ,to do ; in proof of which, he adduced the fact that, on the 14th of November, Parliament was prorogued to the 14th of December ; and yet, on the• 20th of November, it was summoned to meet on the 12th of December,. Referring 'then to the -Baltic fleet, he enlarged on.the magnificent preparations, which he compared with the poverty of the - results, and alluded to the self-laudation with which the expe- dition set out,.and the order of the Reform Admiral to his men to sharpen their cutlasses, &c. He then passed. in review the conduct: of Austria, a dissentient voice. In the House of Commons,. after the Address had been moved and secondediby Mr. H. HERBEVr and Mr. LEvitsoN GOWER, the debate was cony menced by Sir J. PAKINGTON, who, in a speech Of considerable length, criticised the course pursued by the Government in carrying on the war. tic blamed the Government for want of foresight in almost all their operations, compared the results of the magnificent fleet dispatched to the Baltic With; the great promises with which it set out, quote" former speeches of Lord JOHN RUSSELL and the Earl of ABERDEEN, and severely censured the neg- lect in leaving the troops in the Crimea without adequate supplies. He promised the Government` the Parliamentary support of the Conservative' party, but it should be on the condition that the war was conducted with vigour, wisdom, and fore- sight greater than that which had hitherto bee' displayed. Sir ROBERT Pizim disputed the correctness of the opinions expressed by Sir J. PAKINGTON, at the same time, he would himself ask the ae: verment to show a little more spirit. He cautioned them to put a stop to the miserable attempts , foreign refugees in this country to raise a pretended sympathy for Poland. With reference to the fleets, he thought that some explanation was peel: sary in order to clear up the dissatisfaction Which existed as to the conduct both of Admiral 14015,,11 and Admiral DUNDAS, who had not shown all the vigour that might have been desirable. _a EMPEROR seemed determined to carry on. the to the last extremity, and, as we knew that ha valued no friendship and respected no rights, el't seemed contented to live without faith, with° pity, and almost without respect, our, Govertoe t il., in connexion with that of France, should teach ulOO to feel that his lawless ambition mid his aggre's's aspirations his o would add neither dignity to co crown, nor imperil the liberty or the independell of Europe. whose co-operation had proved rather injurious than otherwise, inasmuch as it covered the retreat of the Russians after raising the siege of Silistria and enabled them to send reinforcements against our own troops in the Crimea; and, he concluded his speech with the following animated address to our gallant soldiers now engaged, in, the war : To those gallant men who are now, under circumstances of considerable difficulty, and with diminished numbers, gal- lantly. fighting the battles of thiscountry,reinforced as they have, been to a certain degree, calculating as I do upon their indomitable perseverance and courage under all circumstances of difficulty and discouragement, to them I would say, " Yet a little more patience, yet a little more perseverance.

After the usual preliminary remarks, the President referred to their refusal to be bound by the system of po- licy pursued by European States, a refusal which, he feared, created a jealous distrust of their conduct, and in- duced occasional acts of disturbing effect upon their foreign relations. Their present attitude anb past course should be an unquestionable guarantee that their purpose was not aggressive, nor threatening to the safety and welfare of other nations. The territorial expansion of the United States, which had disquieted some European powers, had resulted from the legitimate exercise of sovereign rights; and it could hardly have been expected that those among them who had, within a comparatively recent period, sub- dued and absorbed ancient kingdoms, planted their stan- dards on every continent, and now possess or claim the control of the islands of every ocean, as their appropriate domain, should look with unfriendly sentiments upon the acquisitions of their country, or would impute their ad- vancement to a spirit of aggression, or to a passion for political predominance. considerable molestation from the Indians. &dykes from Mexico and Texas state that a 111Exic e force of Mexican troops had gathered at Matamoros, and General Well had summoned the Seminole chief, Wild Cat, and his followers there, and it was supposed that they were wanted for some secret mission. A Vigi- lance Committee had been appointed at Point Isabel. Indian depredations were continuing, and three soldiers from Fort Davies had been killed. On the 2d November an English steamer, with $70,000 dollars on board, sank in the port of Vera Cruz. General Parry, Ex-Governor of Venezuela, had. been on a visit to Santa Anna. A number of persons had been banished. The papers of the-capital report further successes by the government over the-revo- lutionists CUBA Advises from Havana contain a correspondence between the captain-general and the naval commandant, the former impressing upon the latter the necessity of suppressing the traffic' in slaves, and the latter promising to use his efforts energetically for that object. VENEZIIELA..-111onegas had been elected president: He' had proclaimed a partial amnesty, after causing the exe- cution of Vasquez, who-was tortured to death, and after- wards buried outside the-city like a dog. Small lots of new coffee had come in. It was sellinc, at 11.1 to 111. Hides were again in great demand, and selling at 13c., with the prospect of a still further advance. CENTRAL AMERICA.—The President of the republic of Nicaragua was still confined within the city of Ensenada, and intended to make a sally upon the rebels on the 22d ultimo. the day the passengers by the Star of the West crossed Lake Nicaragua. CANADA.—The Earl of Elgin. gave a farewell ball at Quebec on the Ist December. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE Nnw YORK, 5Tn DEC.—MONM—There was still a pressure- in the money market, but it was generally ad- mitted that the worst had been experienced. In foreign exchanges general depression in rates•prevailed, and very little business was transacted by evewthe leading bankers for ready money better than 108} to 1081 on London. Settlements were made of credits at 109; and a few small bills sold for cash to particular parties at the same figure; but otherwise the business was on irregular terms, and at the wide range, including produce bills, of 1071 to 1081. Bills on Paris were quoted at 5,131 to 5,161. COTTON: The sales since the departure of the Asia had amounted to 4,000 bales. Prices had receded it. to ic. on all descriptions, and the cotton arriving was still pressed on sale:. Some few lots had been taken for export, and spinners had operated to a small extent. The market closed quietly.. Mr. W. P. Wright, in his -circular of the sth inst., says,. "In my last circular, after deliberation upon the various reports received from the cotton-growing region during the season, I expressed an 'opinion that, from present indications, the crop now coming to market would be the largest ever made in the United. States. In the accounts received during the past week,. Lsee nothing to cause a change, though the estimates in New Orleans and Mobile appear to have settled upon about 3,100,000 bales ; in the Atlantic States 3,200,000 bales seems to be the figure adopted. Of course, there will be variations during the season, consequent upon the receipts beingfree or the reverse. At present the increase, as compared. with last year, is 44,000 bales ; but there is a falling off, as com- pared with the year before, of 323,000, which must be at- tributed mainly to the low state of the Southern rivers, particularly those tributary to New Orleans. All accounts agree that, as soon as a rise takes place, the receipts will be very heavy." The following is a statement of the movement in cotton since the Ist of September last, as compared :with the previous three years:— 1854. 1853. 1852.. .1851. Receipts at the ports.. 541,000 497,000 864,000 560,000 Exports to Gt.

In Wheat, excepting: for Gen- nessee, choice qualities are rather dearer than last week. Indian Corn had declined sc. per bushel. PRovrsioNs.—Mess pork has been in fair request at $13,25 to $13,50, wad prime at $l2. Lard is steady at 9c. to 101 c. for barrels. Beef is steady; city mess $14,50 to $15,50. Butter is steady. Cheese brings 100.. to 11c. per lb. NAVAL STORM—Spirits of turpentine remain dull at 48c. Common rosin is in fair request at $1,90 to $2. Rough turpentine is-without alteration. Inox.—The market for iron was dull and drooping, 70 tons Scotch pig were sold at $34, six months... 100 tons soft English lead had brought $13,121, ninety drys' interest added. FREIGIITS.—Tha market without material alteration. The rates were :—To Liverpool : Cotton, square bales, *d. to 5-32 d.; flour, per barrel, ls. 9d.; rosin,. per barrel, ls. 3d.; heavy goods, per ton, 155.; grain, per •bushel, 6d.

DENMARK With Denmark negotiations were pending to discon- tinue the levying of tolls on vessels belonging to the United States passing through the Sound. He did not doubt they could claim exemption as a matter of right, but as they had signed a convention for ten years, which required one year's,notice to be given by either party in- tending to terminate it, he thought it expedient that such notice should: be given,to the Govenment of Denmark. MEXICO. From Mexico their legation had endeavoured, without success, to obtain a favourable consideration oDtheir claims for wrongs and injuries to their citizens. This failure probably arose froca,the disturbed condition of. that coun- try, which he was anxious to maintain friendly relations with, and the rights and territories of which he would cause to be respected, not only by their own citizens, but by foreigners who had resorted to the United States for the purpose of organising hostile expeditions against some of the states of that republic. The commission to establish the new line between Mexico and the United States, according to the provisions laid down on the 30th De- cember last, had been organised, and the work had com- menced. CENTRAL AMERICA. In relation to. Central America, perplexing ques- tions existed • between the United States- and Great Britain at the time of the cession of California' which it was supposed were adjusted by the treaty of April 19th, 1850; but some misunderstanding had since arisen which their minister at London had not been able to bring to a satisfactory termination. Incidental to,this question, the President entered into a detail of the proceedings and motives of the government with reference•to the destruc- tion of Greytown, the inhabitants of which, had asserted, amongst other illegal acts, civil jurisdiction• over Punta Arenis, a position on the opposite side of the San Juan river, which was in the possession, under a title wholly independent of them, of citizens of the United States, interested in-the Nicaragua Transit Company. This trans- action had been the subject of complaint on the part of some foreign powers, and had been characterized with more of harshness. than of justice. If comparisons were to be instituted, it would not be difficult to present repeated instances in the history of states, standing in the very front of modern civilization, where communities far less offending and more defenceless than, Greytown had been chastised with much greater severity,.and where not cities only have been laid in ruins, but human life had been reck- lessly sacrificed, and the blood of the innocent made pro- fusely to mingle with that of the guilty.

THE Con VOCATION of the prelates and clergy of the province of Canterbury was on Friday prorogued at the Jerusalem-chamber, Westminster, by the Vicar-General, Dr. Twiss, under a commission from his Grace the Arch- bishop of Canterbury, Primate and Metropolitan, to Tuesday, February 6, 1855. THE NEW CA NON OF MANCHESTER. - The Rev. Charles Richson, M.A., clerk in orders, has been nominated by the Chapter of the Qathedral of Manchester to the canonry vacant by the demise of the Rev. Canon Wilson. A chapter was held in the Cathedral on Wednesday, at which were present the Very Rev. the Dean and Canons Wray, Parkinson, and Clifton, when the Rev. C. Richson was nominated by the unanimous voice of the cathedral body, and the notification conveyed to him by the members of the chapter in the kindest manner. Mr. Richson's predecessor, the Rev. Canon Wilson, had only held the appointment a few months, having been instituted in March this year. By his decease the incumbency of St. Andrew's Church, Ancoats, also became vacant, and al- though this is not annexed to the canonry, an error in the act of parliament preventing its becoming so, Mr. Richson will take it. The appointment of Mr. Richson has given the utmost satisfaction in Manchester. His exertions in the cause of education and sanitary improvements have brought him into contact with men of every religious and political creed in Manchester and Salford, and his nomina- l. to the canonry appears most acceptable to all. .

THE WAR. No offiCiai intelligence has arrived since- the despatches from Lord',Raglan, which we published last week. The following are the telegraphic accounts which have since been received : The Sti, Petersburg Journal, of Dec: 7, states that a report had been received by the Emperor' from Prince Menschikoff, dated Nov. 27. At that date.the fire of the besiegers had,slackened to such an extent that the Rus- sians had sustained no loss at all for some days. The enemy were strengthening their position, and constructing fresh batteries,but the fire from those new works had not yet opened. CAMP BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, DEC. 3.—Rain. is falling in torrents. Oar roads are cut up, our trenches filled with water, and our • siege operations, as well as all our works, remain in a state- of suspense. The enemy remains im- movable, for the same reason as ourselves. In spite of these trials, the-spirit of all is excellent, and we remain firm and ready to resume our operations as soon as ever the weather and 'the state of the roads will allow us to stir. General de Montebello arrived on the 6111 at Constan- tinople, and left the next day for the Crimea. The-health of Prince Napoleon was improving. A letter from Bucharest, dated Dec. 11, says —" Omar Pasha left this morning for Varna, where they were busily occupied in embarking the rest of the 19 Turkish bat- talions, a portion of which has already reached the Crimea. The steamer Europa, which left Sebastopol on the 7th, brings information- of the arrival of four regiments and numerous French . re-inforcements. Great activity was observable, between, the town and the northern- coast of the bay. The investment of the town is almost complete. The new siege guns belonging to the fleets had not yet been placed in position?' A 'Marseilles- letter of the 12th has the following:— "The ship Indiana,.whieh left on Saturday, takes out 170 officers, 1,016 soldiers and 28 horses. The transport Nubia, which sailed on!Monday, has on board 17 officers, 1,093 soldiers, 24 horses, three barrels of gunpowder, 207 barrels of artillery stores, and a few camp articles." The packet which -left Constantinople on the 4tlt had arrived at Trieste on. Thursday night. The accounts from Sebastopol state that the allied armies were occupied in preparing their barracks to winter in the Crimea.. On the 2nd, 1,000 English soldiers passed through the-B.os- phorus to reinforce the English army. The Duke of Cambridge was still ilt„ and confined to his bed. Six vessels full of troops left Constantinople on the-3rd for the Crimea. Cheri Pacha has been named Minister of Finance. A despatch from Ralaklava, through Varna, has been received at Vienna, stating that Lord Raglan has caused some siege pieces to be embarked on board the fleet,. for the purpose of forcing the port of Odessa, and usingit as a winter station for the fleets. The despatch is without date, and has not as .yet been confirmed. From St. Petersburg a despatch has been received at Vienna, dated the 12th, stating that if negotiations do not produce peace at the commencement of the new year, a conscription is ordered throughout Russia of 16 in every 1,000, producing an army of 1,000,000 soldiers. . The ratifications of the treaty of alliance between Austria and the Western Pewers were exchanged at Vienna,. on Thursday evening; between the plenipotentiaries of Austria, France, and. England. A convoy of 800,Tiwkish prisoners, taken by the. Rus- sians in one of the late battles in Asia, proceeding to the Don, were surprised by the Caucasians in passing the mountains. The escort, were destroyed, and the prisoners thus found themselves delivered. Seven captured sailors of a Russian merchant vessel, who contrived to escape from Hull, have been arrested at Hamburgh, on their arrival in that port, at the request of the English ambassador. Hamburgh professing.to be a neutral power, this places it in an awkward position. From a telegraphic despatch in the Presse, dated Con- stantinople, December 4, it appears that the Russians at Sebastopol have retired to the second line of defence. They have quitted the, Quarantine' Battery, and are conveying the guns to their PAnce Napoleon return to the Crimea in :a day or two. Kamiesch is to be fortified. The Turkish, amp will be removed from Churuk-su to Batoum. MAnsEILLns, FRIDA.Y.—The Sinai has arrived here with Government despatches from Constantinople, which she left on the. sth inst. Accounts from Balaklava of the 3rd state that a new battery of 36rins had been established against Sebastopol. The bay of Kamisech was fortified. A fresh,Russian corps had arrived near Perekop. The Hannibal and Golden Fleece had arrived with English. roops. The Moniieur of Friday says, " Some of the journals have lately alluded to propositions of peace alleged to have been made•by Russia to France and England. The Courts of Paris and London have not received any proposals of the kind from the Cabinet of St. Petersburg." BERLIN, FRIDAY.—Baron Vincke's motion for an ad- dress in answer to the King's Speech.has been rejected. M. Bentham Hollweg's motion has been withdrawn. The expectations that Prussia would join the treaty of alliance with the Western Powers are becoming fainter. BUCHAREST, DEC. 11.—By the arrival at Varna of the Europa, we have news from Sebastopol of the 7th. A great movement of the enemy between, the town and the north of the bay was observable. The investment of the place was nearly complete. Four French regiments and numerous reinforcements had arrived. The new siege guns from the allied fleets had, not been got into position. This morning Omar Pacha left Bucharest for Varna, where preparations are actively made to embark the remainder of the nineteen Turkish battalions, some of which have already gone to the Crimea.- A letter from Lyons, dated. Wednesday, says the army of that place was about to march to the Austrian territory, and thence to co-operate with the Austrian troops in Bes- sarabia. It further states that a brigade of cavalry was about to leave Lyons for Vienna, with the same object. It is affirmed that the French army in the Crimea will be in- creased to 12 divisions,. or about 120,000 men, which, with the English and. Turkish reinforcements, will raise the. total force to 200,000 men, Advices from Warsaw, of the 7th inst., published in the German papers, report.the entrance of the Russian guards into Poland. The Cuirassier division •of the Russian guards, which it was expected would go• into cantonments in the neighbourhood of Warsaw, and reinforce the garrison, already so large, of the Polish capital, had arrived at Miedzynrec and Siedlee. The commander of this division of heavy cavalry., Lieut.-General Von Essen, went to see Marshal Paskiewitch, who was expecting also the generals of the two brigades, Besobrasoff and Tumanski. No less than 17 Russian generals, who had arrived from various points of the empire, were assembled on the 7th at Warsaw. It is affirmed that the French army in the Crimea will be increased to 12 divisions, or about 120,000 men, which, with the English and Turkish reinforcements, will raise the total force to 200,000 men. . _ _ JUSTICE TO THE ENEMY.—Russian exaggeration of the numbers of the allies who beat them at Alma and Inker- man may not be entirely wilful falsehood,, After the raki and rum with which the Cossacks were primed for fighting, no doubt they saw two Frenchmen and as many English, men for every one.—Punch. _ One of the 24-pounder brass guns, captured at Alma, has been awarded, in division orders, to the 95th Regi, 'meat, having been. cla!med,_ andtake.n possession of by
