Extractor a Letter from Mr, J H, Alliday, 209, High Street, Cheltenham, dated the 22nd of January, 1800. To Professor H01.1.0WAY. SIR, —My eldest Son, when about three years of age, was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling in the neck, which after » short time broke out into an Ulcer. An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of Scrofula, and prescribed for a considerable time without effect. The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing in virulence, when besides the ulcer in the neck, another formed below the lefr knee, and a third under the eye, besides seven others on the left arlll, with a lumourbetween the eyes, which was expected to break. During the whole of the time my suffering boy had receives the constant advice of the most celebrated medical gentlemen at Cheltenham, besides being for several months at the General Hospital, where one of the surgeons said that he would amputate the left arm, but that the blood was so impure that if that limb were taken off it would be then even impos- sible to subdue the disease. In this desperate state I deter- mined to give your Pilis and Ointment a trial, and after two months perseverance in their use, thc tumour gradually began to disappear, and the discharge from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased, and at the expiration of eight months they were perfectly healed, and the boy thoroughly restored to the bless- ings of health, to the astonishment of a large circle of dC- quaintances, who could testify to [he truth of this miraculous case. Three years have now elapsed without auy recurrence of the malady, and the boy is now as healthy as heart can wish. Under these circumstances 1 consider that I should he truly ungrateful were I not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure, effected by your medicines after every othci means had failed. (Signed) J. H. ALLIDAY. CO It E OF ACUTE RHEUMATISM OF FOUR YEARS' STANDING. Extract of a Letter from Mr. John Pitt, Dudley, 19th JalJ" 18 50 To Professor HOLLOW A Y, SIR,—It is with the greatest pleasure thaI I write to thank you for the benefit I have receiveo from your Pills and Oint- ment, which have completely cured me of the Ithematism, under which I suffered for this last four years, at times I was so bad all hardly to be able to walk. I had tried every kind of Medicine that was recommended without receiving any bencfit..1 at last thought I would give your medicines a trial and purchased from Mr. Hollin, Chemist,of this town, two boxes of 1 ills, and two of Ointment, and in three weeks, hrough them and the blessing of God, I was restored to health and strength and am now as well able to walk as evor I was 111 my life. I am well known in this parish, hav- ing been sixty-live years in it, with an exceotion of the years I served in the 24th llegiment of Foot. JOHN PITT. CUHE OF A BAD LEG OF MO'iF, THAN SIXTY YEAltS'Sl'ANDING. Mr. Barker, of No. 5, Graham's Place, Drypool, neat Hull, had ulcers on his leg from ne age of eighteen until upwards of eighty, and although for many years he had sought the first advice in the country, nothing was found to cure them. He very often suffered most excruciating pain for long periods to- gether, which incapacitated him from attending to his busi- ness. He had givellup all hopes of getting a cure, when at last he was persuaded to try Holloway's Pills and Ointment, which he did, and however wonderful it may appear, the leg was thoroughly healed by their means, and by continuing to use the Pills alone after his leg was well, he has become in health so hale and bearty as now to be more active than most men of fifty. N.B.— The truth of this extraordinary statement can be vouched for by Mr. J. C. Reinhardt, 22, Market Place, Hull, February 20tb, 1850. CURE OF A DESPERATE CASE OF RINGWORM, OF SIX YEAKS' STANDING. Lima, 13111 of November, 1849. One of the most eminent Surgeons in Lima (the Capital of Peru) had a child covered whh Hingworlll for more than six years; in vain he exhausted all his art in his endeavours to effect a cure. Not succeeding, he consulted among): is brethren the most celebrated medical practitioners of the City, but no- thing was found 10 do the child service. When he wu per- suadedby Mr. Joseph P. Hague, the English chemist and druggist, residing at No. 74, Calle de Palacio, to try Hul. owav s Pills and Ointment, which was done, aud alter using "u* u^ ^0ls °f l?le ointment with a proportion of the pills the child was radically cured, to the surprise of the whole medical profession. The name of the parent, from motives of delicacy is withheld. The Pills should be used conjointly with the Ointment in most of the following cases Had Legs Chilblains Gout Sore-throats [lad Breasts Chapped-hands Glandular Skin-diseases "uros Corns (Soft) Swellings Scurvy Bunions Cancers Lumbago Sore-heads Bite of Mos- Contracted & Piles Tumours chetoes and Stiff-joints Rheumatism Ulcers Sand-Flies klephantisis Scalds Wounds Coco-Hay Fustulas Sore-Nipples Yaws Chiego-foot.

BALDNESS & GREYNESS PREVENTED BY BEETHAM'S CAPILLARY FLUID.—The truly wonderful efficacy of this unique preparation is the theme of admiration wherever introduced. It effectually prevents the Hair falling otf or turning grey, promotes its growth on places that have been bald for years, strengthens weak and line Hair, and gradually restores its natural co- lour, without the use of dye. It cleanses the Head from Scurf, and imparts a beautiful transparent, glossy appear- ance, and keeps it in any desired form. In inducing the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, Moustachios, its effect is eurprising. Sold in Bottles, 2s. 6d., 4s. 6d.; double size, 7s. 6J.; family bottles, lis., equal to six small. The following extracts are from letters which are kindly allowed to be inserted and, if space allowed, many hun- dreds more might be inserted :— From Lady Morley, Brighton, requesting three 4s. Cd. bottles for dark hair.-—" Has great pleasure in stating that it has quite prc1/cnted her hair falling off." From J. tV. Parker, Esq, St. George'l-terrace, Hyde Park, London, requesting two lis. bottles for dark hair.—"The 1Iuid has proved of great benefit to my hair. Afrer using several preparations, I fiud it the most pleasing aud effica- cious, and worthy the patronage of all who arc fearful of losing their hair." From Miss Robinson, Kensington, March 9th, requesting three 4s. 6d. bottles.—" Her hair was falling off very fast and changing colour, from illness. She is happy to inform Mr. Beetham that his excellent fluid has not only prevented its changing colour, but has produced almost too great a supply of hair." From Lady P-, Christie's Hotel, St. James's-street, London, requesting four boxes of Corn Plaster and a case of Fluid.—" She has found it of very great benefit for pre- venting the hair falling off." From J. W. Spencer, Esq., Douglas, Isle of Man, requesting one Us. bottle for dark hair.—"Your Capillary Fluid has completely restored my hair. After using it a fortnight it checked its falling off, and a bald place on the top of my head, nearly the size of my hand, now present): a thick crop of hair, which, for nine months, was as bare as the palm of my hand." ———" EASE AND COMFORT IN WALKING. BEETHAM'S CORN AND BUNION PLASTER.— This most important discovery causes the greatest delight aud astonishment wherever it is introduced. Its elfect, to use the words of numerous correspondents, is truly miracu- lous; the most inveterate Corns, Bunions, and those un- sightly and painful enlargements of the GREAT TOE JOINTS, which disfigure the beautiful sYlJllnetryof the foot, have been immediately relieved from all pain and un- easiness, and in a short time entirely dispersed after twenty years' suffering. Unexceptionable references are allowed to be given to individuals almost in every part of the United Kingdom. Sold in Packets, Is.; Boxes, 2s. 6d.; which will be sent free to any part of the United Kingdom, on receipt of 14 or 34 postage stamps, by Mr. Beetham, Cheltenham, or by the several Agents. „„„ CHAPPED HANDS PREVENTED. THE SKIN PRESERVED AND BEAUTIFIED. BEETHAM'S ROYAL DETERGENT BALM stands unrivalled for imparting to the neck, hands, and arms. a softness and delicacy unaccomplished by any other means. It induces a healthy action of the skin, and the sallow or yellow hue of the countenance is succeeded by a healthy and attractive appearance; the cheeks soon assume a radiant bloom, and wrinkles (the great enemy to youthful appear- ance) rendered scarcely perceptible. It possesses a refresh- ing and grateful perfume, aud its extraordinary power in removing tan-spots, freckles, and other discolorations and irritation of the skin, occasioned by heat, travelling, cold winds, or other causes, render it universally appreciated.— Half-pint Bottles, 2s. 9d.; Pints, 4s. 6d.

GOLD.
GOLD. The late di-coveriesofgold in Australia cannot but work out a social levolution of vital importance to that colouv and the mother country. The full tide of emigration, heretofore diveited in mere dribblets from the American colonies and the wide-spreading lands of the United States to the Aus- tralian coasts, already begins to set towards the once de- spised haven. The fr^e and rapid intercourse by steam be- tween New Holland and her parent state, denied by a weak and vascillating cabinet, and an irritable and wrong-headed colonial minister, will ere long be carried out by private enterprise, for the sake of the lucrative freights afforded by the newest product of Australia. For a few months busi- ness in the caritalof New South Wales may be arrested, and for this once the wool harvest lost for want of hands to supply the place of those to whom the spoils of the valley of Bathurst have proved irresistible in seducing them from their accustomed and well remunerated labour. For B few months famine prices may reign in Sydney. But how soon will all this be changed by the tide of emigration, and the flood of imports? A glut of population aud goods cannot but result, and the present days of exorbitant price-, and of bribes rather than wages, succeeded by bankruptcy brought on by over trading, IInd pauperism resulting from over emi- gration. This chauge, too, will be but tempoiary, thanks to the expansive power of the Colonies on the Australian Con- tineut, farther and farther inland will necessity drive the adveuturer, until new districts are added yearly, and the firm and extended basis laid for a great European Kingdom in the Southern Ocean. From this r ew attraction excited by the discoveries of golden mines iu California and Australia we have little doubt that a grand and beneficial result will follow. It is the tendency of nations who have attained a high degree of civilization and social refinement to crowd more compacify, and to mouopolise, with selfish avarice, the blessings trans- mitted from a previous age or achieved by themselves. In ofder to check or break up this tendency, some new fact, or event, or attraction, turns up in a remote place, clearly under the cognizance of a higher power, which dissolves the cohe- sion, and draws away multitudes to other Jess favoured and less peopled lands, or in some other way brings populat on, wealth, and arts, and religion, into contact with tribes all but strangers to them all. The irruption of the Goths into aucieut Rome, the Crusade-, the fate of Constantinople, and other great events, were the means of extending the blessings of civilization, and bringing together very opposite conditions of social life. So tnis apocalypse of gulden trea- sures in far distaut lands, of great scarcity of population, and barbarous manners, is likely to thin the over-grown and too dense population of our country, and indeed of Europe, and with our people to carry out leligious, social, and civil blessings, which might have risen and fallen among ourselves, unknown aud unfelt by others. These discoveries may yet balance the population of thcparth, and render universal what has heretofore been local and limited. Thou-andsthat go out to seek gold may sj.reaa around them moral and re- ligious influences whicti gold cannot purchase. They may emigrate in order to get rich, and live 111 order to do good. They go forth peeking to subserve their own ends, and a higher presiding I rovidence may send them out to promote His own great and glorious purposes. We do not augur evil of these di-coveries and their ellects on our population. That partial evil will not occur is what we dare not say. but that the moral good will vastly outweigh the incidental evils is our thorough conviction. Not OQIV will other portions of the earth receive an increasing tide of immigrants, but that ex- cess of population which lowers lalm.,r and generates dis- content at home, and for wh ch war hns till recently been the outlet, will now find territory and employment, and the means of hfe in magnificent climates, and 011 a splendid soil. On this current will go forth not a little of our dis quiet, discontent, and suffering, not a bttle also of our faith, our freedom, and our privileges. Oil-shoots of the glorious tree uuder whose shadows our fatheis have grown old and died, and whose fruit has been to m ri¡.\ht pleasant food, will take root in Australia and belrkiodred produce whe e emigration Inay be God's missionary society. For our part let u< try to improve to the very utmost those who are thus to leave us. Let us seek to seud forth not the locusts of Egypt, to leave a desert behind where was a garden be- fore hut the lights of the world, the salt of the earth, who shall give in exchange for the gold they gather there, rich moral treasures which are more precious than Ophir.— Britannia.

On Tuesday, Mr. Ingle Rudi»e, a young stock-hrol<er, who has been for some time past noticed by his friends to be in a desponding state of mind, and found that he wai £500 short of the sum necessary to meet his transact! >n», beiug settling-day, committed suicidejby taking prusdc acid. He has left a widow an I two children. On Monday, Mr. F. J. Baker, a highiy respectable plasterer and painter at Bristol, aged 40, committed suicide by blowing his brains out. He had been des- ponding for the last fortnight, ever since the departure of his two sons, his only children, for the Uuited Stui s, at the solicitation of 1111 aunt.
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE.—The Paris papers of Thursday have been received. The President of the Republic held on Wed- nesday a farewell review of the regiments of the garrison about to leave the capital. The Prince accompanied by the Ministerof Wat, Generals Magnanand Roguet, and the Generals commanding the brigades to which those corps belonged, arrived at the Champ de Mars at twelve o'clock, where four regiments of infantry were drawn up on the right.andthreeregiments of cavalry on the left. After riding in front of the two lines, the President proceeded to the centre of the ground, and there distributed crosses of the Legion of Honour to a number of officers and soldiers who acknowledged the favour by cries of Vive Napoleon He then took his station at the Military School, and the seven regiments defiled before him. The President was well received by the people.—The trial of the Avenement for a libel on the Government, has ended in the condemna- tion of the editor to six months' imprisoument. The pub- lisher of the Presse has been alike condemned by default.— Don Enrique, of Spain, and his wife, the Duch;ss of Seville have arrived in Paris, and alighted at the Hotel des Princes to remain until after the accouchement of the Princess. The Paris papers of Friday are devoid of intelligence of interest. Nothing is known as to the intention of Louis Napoleon on the question of the electoral law; but it is understood there is a great division on this subject in the Republican party. It was rumoured on the Exchange that the Government are about to place some of the departmental in a state of siege.—M. Victor Place, lately appoiuted Con- sul of France at Moussol, has taken his departure from the capital, with instructions to direct the new excavations about to be made at Nineveh, aud for which a sum has been voted by the National Assembly. He is to be joined at Moussol by the members of the Scientific Committee about to explore Assyria, Babylonia, Mesopotamia, Chal- dica, and Medea.—Private letters from Malta mention the arrival of Kossuth and his companions on board of the Mississippi on the 21st inst.—The Roman Observer of the 17th inst. states that in the afternoon of the 9th, two individuals wbo formerly belonged to the lJand commanded by Forbes, had attacked a peaceable inhabitant of Terni, named lios- chi, and pierced him with twelve wounds, which fortunate) v were not dangerous. The intended assassins were imme- diately apprehended.— Fresh shocks of earthquake were felt in the Neapolitan territories on the night of the 6th instant. The Pays contains a long article on the great question of the revision of the Constitution that will soon come before the assembly a second time. Amongst other things which that terrible and inevitable law reqniies from the Execu- tive and Legislative are the following:—" Louis Napoleon Bonaparte willllddress a message to the Assembly. It will be full of respect for the Constitution. He will patriotically and loyally repudiate all idea of overturning it, or even of falsifying or evading it. He will recognise that this Consti- tution, issuing from the sovereignty of the nation, cannot be modified or changed but by the entire nation. He will in vite the French people to fulfil all their duties while exer- cising all their rights and their legal representatives to pay due regard to the opinion which inspires and which judges them. He will announce to the people that they must not pass the limits of the law which binds them. In one word, he will render a complete, solemn, aud disinterested hum- age to the Republic of which he i« the chief and to the nation of which he is the elect. The day following this message 100 representatives of the people will deem it a point of honour to sign the following proposition for imme- diate presentation:—'The Legislative Assembly resolves that the Constitution of the French Republic ought to be partially revised. In consequence, a Constituent Assembly, named by all the electors inscribed on the etectoral iists made out in conformity with the law of the 15th of March, 1849, shall assemble ou the 15th of February next.' Fifteen days after the presentation of that proposition it will be voted by 600 majority. This is not merely an affirmation of ours; it is necessity which requires it. We do not hazard a pro- phecy, we state a mathematical certainty. We will prove it. The proposition cousins two acts of an inseparable chuac. ter, viz., the repeal of the law of May 31, and the revision of the Constitution. 446 votes declared in July last that on the revision of the Constitution depended the salvation of the country, and 231 that the re»i-iou was a violation of public rights; that it was a pubic danger, a cause almost certain of future revolution. We find, therefore, 446 on one side, who make the salvation of France depend on the re- vision of the Constitution, and on the other 231 who make the maintenance of public order depend on the repeal of the law of the 3Istof.May. Will the 446 representatives who believe that France is saved if the revision be voted, refule that revision when they can obtain it by the sacrifice of a law w.thout authority, without efficacy-which the greater part of them prooounce to be vicious, impracticable, and daugerou"—and which a mere sentiment of amour propre prevents them trom openly condemning and abandoning? Will the 231 representatives who believe that a new revo- lution must, be avoided if universal suffrage be restored, re- fuse the repeal of the law of the 31st of May when they can obtain it by granting the revision without dinger to the Republic—not as a concession of ri^hf, but as a new recog- nition of the principle of the sovereignty of the people, of which it is the leg^l expression and the iivingandnatura) form? No the revisionists will not refuse the revision at the price of the law of the 3Istof May; nor yet will the republicans refuse the repeal of the law of the 31st of May at the price of the revision. Both the one and the other will comprehend the responsibility that such a refusal must impose on them They will feel that to reject the arbitra- tion of the nation is their own condemnation."—M. de la Gueronniere then goes on to show that there would be nothing dangerous to republican institutions nor to society in such a compromi-e between the two parties. PORTUGAL.—The Peninsular Mail steamer Madrid has brought intelligence from Lisbon to the 19th inst. The prospects of the Septembrists were more favourable, arising from the fact that the Queeu had sent for the Duke of Ter- ceira, to whom she expressed her great displeasure that his Grace should have joined the Cabralite faction. Her Ma- jesty felt it necessary 10 give the Duke this reproof, because she said, as he was holding a high office at Court it would lead the public to believe that she wa< clandestinely encou- raging the Cabralite party, which she altogether renounced, because she was satisfied that the feeling of the country was opposed both to Count Thomar and his government. The result of the conference was that the Duke of Terceira pro- mised to separate frjm the Cabralites. This act of the Queen had given great satisfaction to the public generally. —Captain Martin's squadron had sailed from Lisbon on a cruize. SPAIN —The Madtid journals of the 19th inst. announce that the Government was accelerating as much as possible the departure of one thousand men and forty Paixhans guns intended for Cuba. The Urden, which is considered the Ministerial organ, says—"We can fully confirm the impor- tant news that the English Government has ordered its naval forces to protect Cuba and it states that it also has made representations to the United States' Cabinet on the duty imposed on it of preventing piratical expeditions. The journals express the greatest s-itisfaetion at the proceeding of the British Government, and declare that the sentiment of indignation at the conduct of the American pirates is univerul in Spain. Private letters from Madrid speak of the general feeling of satisfaction produced there on all parties by the instruc- tions given by the British Government to the commander of the uaval force in the West Indies relative toco-operation with the Spaniards in the event of any newpiraiica) attempt on the island of Cuba. Even the Heraldo, which was not wont to say much in praise of Lord Palmerston, concludes a leading article on ihe subject III the following manner;- While giving expression to the grateful feeling these tidings have produced on us, we consider it our bounden dutylo dwell particularly 011 the beneficial results produced on this occasion, as on many others, from the Queen of England being represented in our country by a distinguish- ed nobleman who is intimately familiar with our national character, and who has on more than one occasion given proofs of his sincere desire to draw still closer the friendly relations existing between two nations which have so many interests in common. We feel convinced that the recom- mendations of Lord Howden have much contributed to inducing the British Cabinet to adopt on this question a policy so highly honourable. This being the C ire, we feel bound, as Spaniards, to pay to Lord Howden the tribute of gratitude aud ol thanks which he so well merits, and we consider his conduct ia the present iustance as an addi- tional title to the esteem with which he has so wet! inspired all classes of the people of this country." PRUSSIA.—According to advices from Berlinof the 22nd inst. the Italian Sovereigns are about to form a confederation similar to the Germanic League. The confedertion has a twofold object, namely, to maintain and strengthen inter- nal order by an equal and simultaneous advance of the Sov- ereign power in allltahan States and to render all foreign intervention, from whatever quarter, unnecessary. Such a confederation would free the Pope from the French Repub- licans, and the Emncror of Austria, therefore, finds it expe- dient to proceed with this measure in full concurrence with the other Italian rulers. —A correspondent of the New Prussian Gazette states that Prince Windischiiratz has been again appointed Governor of Bohemia.—Ruinourj had been circulated that the question about ,the incorporation of the Austrian dependencies with the German Bund had been made the subject of personal conference between the K'.ng of Prussia and the Emperor of Austria at Ischl, but this is decidedly contradicted. The inauguration of that stupendous woik the railway which connects St. Petersburg)) and Moscow took place on the ht inst, The Emperor o' Russia, accompanied by the Empress, the principal members of the Imperial family, several foreign Princes, and attended by the high Officers of State, and a numerous suite, quitted St. Petersburgh at six o'clock on Sunday, and arrived at Moscow at half past eight o'clock the same night. According to advices received from Milan of the 21.t inst., the Emperor of Austria made his solemn entry into that city on horseback, on that day, reviewed the troops in the Campo di Marte, proceeded to the Cathedr il where a Te Deum was performed, and rode immediately back to Monza, The deportment of the people is described as quiet and respectful.—The King of Hauover has honoured M. Von Manteufi'el with the grand cross of the Guelphic Order; and a list has been published of twenty-two veteran private soldiers in Prussia, who have received from Queen Vic- toria the medal commemorative of the campaigns from 1793 to 1814. Several tradesmen and artizans have been arrested in different parts of Hanover, charged with having been in communication with the political refugees in London. Letters, which were addressed to and received by parties in London, are in the hands of the Hanoverian police; and it is therefore supposed that some refugee must have fur- nished these documents.—A marriage was solemnised at Frankfort on Wednesday last, between Don Miguel de Brdganca and Adelaide Sophia Louisa Jane Leopoldina, Princess of Laewenstein-Wertheitn, only daughter of the late Hereditary Prince Constantine Joseph, and of the Prin- coss Mary Agnes Henrietta of Hohenloe Langenbourg.— An English Company is at the present time occupied with the coiiftruction of a Railway between Christiana and the great Lake Mioscu, which will then open one hundred and forty English miles of the interior of Norway to commerce. Another Company is in negotiation for the establishment of a line of steamers between Hull and a Norwegian port. CENTRAL ASIA.—The German Constitutional Gazette con- tains the following article on the complications of which Central Asia is at this moment the theatre Twelve years ago the Persian army, directed by agents of Russia, was repulsed under the walls of Herat, & England undertook the fatal expedition to Cabul. led either by ambition, or by a desire to put an end to the Russian influence on the fron- tiers of India. Russia accepted the challenge, and marched an expedition against Khiva. The two rivals accordingly gave each other a rendezvous in the plains of Bactriana, lor, had the English succeeded in establishing themselves in Cabul, and the Russians in Khiva, the pulhs of the Baskirs aud Cossacks would have soon come to blows. But both expeditions failed, and when England had avenged the honour of her arms by a new expedition, and vigorously chastised the AffKhans, she definitively withdrew her armiea from the country to achieve more easy and useful conquests In Scinde and the Punjaub. Russia alone did not renounce her plans, and waited an opportunity to execute them. The first object of the cabinet of St. Petersburgh was to subject to her domination the eastern coast of the Caspian Sea, in order to obtain a point d'appui for future operations, and secure supplies, reinforcements, and a means ot retreat, in case of reverse. With that view, Russia erected forts on different points, and placed garrisons in them. She then opened negotiaitons with the Turkomans. The Kerghises readily consented to recognise the white Czar for their mas- ter. By similar manoeu ref, pursued with perseverance during several years, the Russian domination extended to Lake Aral, the Siedarja, aud the frontiers of Turkistan. Russia thus acquired a basis for mnre important undertak- ings, wheu a favourable opportunity should offer itself. Now the moment has arri- ed, ail I she is preparing to profit by it. Tsie death of the Khan of Herat gave the signal 01 a war of succession, in which Persin h is engaged, ond will, in all probibiliiy, as she did in IS3. invoke IIIIC" more the assistance <' liu-sia. In the meantime the Kurai.in?, under the pretext of an incursion of the Turkomans, landed a body of troops on the southern coast of the Caspian Sea, which is now marching towards Herat. General Perowski, who, notwithstanding the fatal result of the expedition to Khiva, is considered 8S one of the ablest generals of Russia, has resumed the chief command of the Russian forces in the Government of Orenburg. Should he march alone, or in conjunction with a Persian army towards Herat, it will be easy for him, if provided with a sufficient artillery, to reduce that fortress, where he will not meet this time a Pottinger. Will England remain an impassive spectator of events which threaten to shake, at no distant period, her empire in India? We do not believe it, and we are conviuced that ere long we sh<ll hear of measures adopted by the British Government." AMERICA,—LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY MORNING.—By the arrival in the Mersey of the Royal mail steam-ship America, Shannon commander, we have received advices and letters from New Yoik to the 16th ingtij Boston to the 17th, and Halifax to the 19th. She brings 100.000 dollars in specie, and upwards of 50 passengers The New York papers st8te that the steam-ship Atlantic took out instructions from the President to Mr. Barringer. the United States Consul at Madrid, to urge upon the Spanish Government mercy and leniency towards her unfortunate and misguided prisoners. Intense excitement prevailed at Baltimore and throughout Pennsylvania in consequence of the negro outrage at Chris- tiana (reported by last steamer), by which Mr. Edward Gorsuch, the owner of the two fugitives whom he attempted to recover, was killed, and his son mortally wounded; the son was not dead at last accounts, but he was not expected to survive many hours. Several arrests of both whites and negroes supposed to be concerned in the outrage, had been made, and an armed force had been sent to Christiana to prevent any further outbreak. The Government has offered a reward of 4,000 dollars for the arrest and convic- tion of the offenders. Great preparations were making at Boston for the rail- road jubilee, at which the President and most of the high officials are expected to be present. The steamer Pampero, the vessel which conveyed the Cuban invaders to Havannah, had been given up to the American authorities by Mr. Sigur, at New Orleans. Eighteen men were arrested at New Orleans charged with riololls conduct and inciting a mob to tear down the True Delta newspaper office. Captaiu Kelly, one of the liberated Cuban prisoners, had arrived at New Orleans. His state- ments totally exonerate Lopez from the charge of having abandoned Colonel Crittenden and his party. From Canada we have no news of interest. The cropi are reported to be looking remarkably well, especially the wheat crop. From Ilavannah we have telegraphic accounts, by way of Savannah, to the 7tb September, one day later, which state that 160 prisoners had sailed for Spain in a Government transport, and that only four had been liberated, viz., Col. Haynes, Captain Kelly, Lieuteuaut Van Vechteo, and Mr. Chapman. The report contained in a telegraphic despatch from New Orleans, dated the 11th September, to the effect that a de- falcation of 50,000 dollars had been d:scovered in the house of J. C. Burnham and Co., of Havaunah, turns out to be much exaggerated. The defalcation will not extend to be- yond 15,000 dollars. Advices from St. Domingo to the 4th September had been received at New York by the arrival of the schooner Gray Eaale from Port-au-Platt, which stite that preparations were made by the Haytian and Dominican governments to renew warlike operations, and that the Haytian fleet had reached Cape Hayti previous to the sailing of the Gray Eagle. Port-an-Piatt was, on the 17th August, visited by a very severe hurricane, which tore up large trees from the roots and destroyed from fifteen to twenty houses. The chipping in the harbour also suffered severely. The English Brazil packet was driven on shore and totatlylost; a seaman be- longing to her was also drowned the schooner Sea was also driven on shore and lost; and the Norwegian brig Frarer, and schooner Chevere, had to cut away their masts to avoid the same fate. Every vessel in the harbour met with moie or less damage, excepting the Gray Eagle. Advices from Santa Fé. New Mexico, to the 29th of July, have been received, which report that the Navijo Indians had killed II persons and wounded eight others, but the cause is not stated. Pieces of gold, weighing from six to eight ounces, have been found in the "placer," near Santa Fe. Great injury had resulted from drought in New Mex- ico.

THE FRENCH PRESIDENT AND THE FRENCH PRESS.— Almost every day brings its triumph to Louis Napoleon over the French press. He has a nest of singing-birds all in a cage. As the Tyrian dye is a lost secret, so hopes the President to make hi< world forget the Printer's black. In a few years, with the nephew of his uncle at the Elysee, men will have retrograded to scribes and parchment. In the meantime, a monument is to be erected to the glory of the President. And as Napoleon had statues of himself cast from the cannon he had captured, so will Louis Napo- leon have a colossal figure cast from the types he has made waste metal. As the spoil of twenty battles was molten for the fflory of the Emperor, so will the lead of twenty news- papers commemorate the reputation of the President. — Punch BARRAGE OF THE NILE AT THE APEX OF THE DELTA. The Journal des Debat. says :—44 It is known that the Viceroy of Egypt had commissioned a French engiueer of roads and bridges with the execution of a project for the bar- rage of the Nile, below Cairo, and for the establishment of canals above the bar; age which should carry the waters of the stream over the surface of Lower Egypt. This great work, destined to change the face of the country, is in a very advanced state. The barrage is established at the point of the Delta where the Nile bi-forks into two great branches which flow, one to Rosetta, the other to Dami- etta. It is 190 kilometres from Alexandria, 160 from Ro- setta 20 kilometres below Cairo,—in view of the great Pyramids of Gizeh. The works comprehend—1. A sluice bridge on each of the two branches of the river with a level- ing quay, to tix the point of the Delta—2. Three great canals —one cut on the right bank of the Damietta branch in the direction of Mansourah— another running along the left bank of the Rosetta branch in the direction of Alexan- dria—the third placed in the axis of the Delta. The canal directed towards Alexandria is to be 60 metres wide,—the two others, 100 metres each. The great difficulty in point of execution has been the barrage itself. M. Mongel, the engineer, however, hllppily resolved it. The barrage has a length of 538 metres 20 centimetres between the extreme abutments, on the Damietta branch, and of 468 metres 30 centimetres on the Rosetta branch making a length alto- gether of 1,006 metres 5" centimetres. The quay wall con- structed at the point of the Delta is 1,613 met. es in length. The barrage is expected to be finished in the course of 1852." HORRIBLE IF TRUE —The Droit has the following rather incredible story A commercial traveller, whose business frequently called him from Orleans to Paris, M. Edmund D-, was accustomed to go to an hotel with the landlord of which he w is acquainted. Liking, like almost all per- sons of his profession, to talk and joke he was the favourite of everybody in the hotel. A few days ago he arrived, and was received with pleasure byaH but it was observed that he wdlmuch less gay tha" usual. The stories that he told instead of being as interesting as formerly, were of a lugu- brious character. On Thursday evening, after supper, he invited the people of the hotel to go to his chamber to take colFee. and he promised to tell them a tale full of dramatic incident. On entering the room his guests saw on the bed, near which he seated himself, a pair of pistols. • My story,' said he, hils a sad denouetnent, and I require the pistols to make it clearly under.tood.. As he had always been accus- tomed, iu telling Irs tiles, to indulge inexce-sive pantomime and to take up anything which was handy calculated to add to the effect, no surprise was felt at his having pre- pared pistols. He began by narrating the loves of a young girl and a young man. They had both, he said, promised, uuder the most solemn oaths, inviolable fidelity. The young man, whose profession obliged him to travel, once made a long absence. Whilst he was away he received a legacy, and on his return hastened to place it at her feet. But on presenting himself before her learned that. in compliance with the wishes of her family she had just married a wealthy merchant. The young man thereupon took a terrible reso- lution. 4 He purchased a pair of pistols like these,'lie con- tinued, taking one in each hand, 'then he assembled his friends in his chamber, and after some conversation placed one under his chin, in this way as I do, saying in joke that it woulJ be a real pleasure to blowout his brains; and at the same moment he pulled th;» trigger.' Here the man discharged the pistol, and his head was shattered to pieces. Pieces of the bone and portions of the brain fe' 1 011 the hor- rified spi-cti-crs The unfortunate mill had told his i owu story.
