Therefore wmay as well anticipate any murmurs or remonstrances by calling attention to the position of the several reiu^ue colonies certainly know little of them except from common fame, but there can be no doubt that they do not all • ielong to one class or profess the same opinions. The seventy of the Continental Governments Ila" been such that the Constitutionalist, anxious only for such tem- tsresJ freedom, as we possess, has fled his country, and nds himself in Soho or tho neighbourhood of Hoiborn •Jo-ig with the Communists whose visions are of uni- ye:-z;ai spoliation, or would-be bruti who are preparing combustibles for a wholesaie massacre. The Germans, however, even of the most extreme party, generally set- tle down to some kind of industry they may discuss the theories of property and government ten tunes a-day and agree that kings and capitalists are equally incon- sutent with the irrefragable conclusions of social science, but still they manage to hold their earnings pietty fast, acd to livo in peace under the Government oi Oueen Victoria, although our system, in their opinion, is ,t poli- tical hypocrisy, and we have only despots for allies. The Planch, although declamatory and vio,ent, are, we belive, not much given to secret conspiracies. They are foud of asserting general principles of philosophy as ap- phaable to the entire human race, either in a highflown pamphlet, or at some anniversary gathering, or over the gTuTe of some. Democratic leader, but it cannot be said .*■ tuat they are nsore fierce or malignant than may be ex- 4 snen who have brooded over their banishment f"m tbeir own land mio a country where they meet with little notice or sympathy, and to whose people they are as much strangers as on the first day they Janied. But with the vindictive and sanguinary Italian the oaaeii very different. Even among thetaseivesand In their small colony of exiles acts of violence are of no rare occurrence. What is more, they form in this coun- try a community of which we know nothing, except that It has its organization, its leaders, its passwords, and its peculiar work—the work being incessant and violent conspiracy. How these men can elude the vigilance of oar police uthown in the case of Foschini, where a man who bad stabbed three or four 01 his comrades was able to escape, no doubt through the assistance of the whole aabtle and secret brotherhood. Therefore, although we think that Parliament would very properly refuse to any Minister the right of seizing or expelling an alien without otfence proved against him and merely on the assertion of a foreign police agent that he was engaged in fomenting political disquiet— although a country like ours, which lias tens of thou- sands of foreign workmen employed, and part of whose greatness consists in its being Ireo ground for all nations cannot think of abridging the liberty ot new comers, yet there might certainly be some notice taken of the proceedings of well-known conspirators \V e have .;a:! amon, tic woken of the distinctions which pre fugees because we believe that the class to which I lanori aDd also the present gang of assassins, belong is not large. They are. we feel sure, nearly all Italians, they doubtless associate together, their haunts are known, their absences remarked, and their returns noticed by our police. We do not say that our Government should Pout of its way to put them under surveillance but the foreign police has any definite charge to make against them, the English authorities are in duty bound to investigate it. Conspiracy tor treason or murder i3 a trine of which a country may certainly take cogui/.anco, yml po jurist can hnvo any doubt that the actual prepara- tion of materials on our soil for the murder of a neigh- bouring Potentate is an otlr;icc pnnishabie by our law. The country woq.d. we :uliceive, support the Govern- went in any just interference for the suppression otsuch jiideous plots 43 this which has just failed at I am*. We do not wish' England to be made an asylum for the most cruel and dastardly assassins. But we are bound to say that the language of the President of the Senate and pther Officials, in tneir congratulatory addresses, is not tabulated to win favour for any overtures 01 the r rcnoh (?n^fffpiiiftnt. Wd can weii imagine the indi^tiu'.ion and hoSror with which all Paris regard the iate deed, and can — oaBuse any warmth of expression on the morrow of so Heinous a crime. But the insinuation that England had erected itself as a citadel from which assassins may go forth, and the hope that now this country will not. remain intrenched in its selfishness, but will unite with the Continental Powers to drive tne Democrats from Europe constitute a style of language to which we could not be expected to respond amhbly. But H;is we will pass over, and assure our allies that the British people views assassination with as much horror as they do, and will gipe them every assistance in preventing or in punishing Ft* Still we would remark that tho work must be chiefly their own. It certainly seems that t!ie elaborate systems ef passport and police have been sadly inefficient in the prfisect ease. Some 20 or 30 Italians establish them- selves in Paris, they pass to and fro freely under tctgned names, they are, it appears well known Democrats, and oven escaped murderers, and yet they cross the Channel ftitd take up their abode in the capital wituout mo.esui- tlon. More than this, they are able to manufacture in • Ifrance, or to bring into this country a quantity ot hand grenades four or five inches in diameter; ihey walk pboat with daggers and revolvers; they congregate in numbers at the door of an opera house, and though the Hiachinery of detection is so elaborate that the explosion wounds no less than 29 police agents, yet the band of aaurdorers have been able to carry everything through, without the slightest suspicion and to perpetract an act by which 102 people are killed and wounded. When this is the result of Continental vigilance our critics should be less ready in denouncing English iucrtnosa. put it is not the less tho du;y of our police authorities to give every assistance to the French, and we arc sure that 11 the fact that explosive projectiles were some time •ince manufacture 1 by refugees in Jersey had beon brought before the Home :-iecrctary, he would at once have instituted a proper search. The tact may or may not be true, but if it be true the French Government could have put English law in force at the time. That it will be better informed of future attempts we most fervently hope, and we would warn refugut s of all Plorts ¡bat, they have no mercy to expect in this country if they be detected in a plot against a foreign Government. They catae .v>re freeiy, they live herein security,and they may dopart when and how they will. While here they have all the rights of our own people, and no man can molest them. But if they attempt to pursue their bloody pehenie:) on English ground they mu-rt prepare for the Mverest punishment which the lawa of the land can iniUct.
THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION…
THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF NAPOLEON HI. (Fiornthf Rumbiy Timti.) There are three olasses of assassins in France— asaassiu3 on principle, sham assassins, and madmen, with a passion for killing anything or anybody. It will pro- bably turn out, that the person who is said to have attempted the life of Napoleon the Third, belongs to the second class Our readers need not be toid, that we detent assassination, for two very powerful reasons the first, because it is wrong intuit; ano, ihe second, be- cause, even if it were otherwise, it rarely or never succeeds in accomplishing any good for the wmn^y which is the scene of it. If give the^3 sa.su,> credit for being the purest possible pa riou »f h- motive whatever than that Oi serving «.is c<, y, ho ought to perceive that no countr) i> reia_i>^ served or saved, in which patriotism is at. so uw an ebb that the people refused to do. io a bouy, what thp, assas- fin undertakes to accompiisii alono, \Vr!:cn Caesar fell in the Senate House by the hands of the noblest t^sassins that ever drew dagger, the achievement did not inau- gurate a new reign of liberty in gomo. Had the •-itizens of the Republic been worthy to preserve their Rncieii'- and glorious institutions, tisey woui un- doubtedly, have preserved th-;m by some effort of their own: A nation cannot be patriotic by proxy It may need representatives to explain, in the legislature, its wants and its wishes, its rignt-i ana its privileges; but no man, or set of men, cau be elected to represent a uation's virtue. As.vi:na'ion is a symptom oicotrupt timea. If the French really ^oved liberty, they would not tolerate Louis Napoleon's government lora fortnight; and. is'point of fact, he hi«;r- .t would be so well aware of this, vt>at he would nol at' t;>t to govern them, after the fashion which he has adopted- it is only because ha knows them to be lined for despotism, that ae is a jdospi>t. If thay were thorougidy qualified tor the en- Joym.ft of free institutions Louis Napojeon neither would uor could hold then in u Lte is a man, deeply versed in the history of the present o'jntury e IS familiar with a'.l the doings of his uncle he 3 notea ai)d siudied, with infiui e care, the weaknesses, the follies, and the vices of the French peop:e; and it is through this Knowledge that he lules them. It would be in the highest degree pitiful in the French nation to owe its deliverance—even if it eould he so delivered — v- -fsxa the yoke which it has placed on its own neck, by pashing forwnrd some li rce enthusiast to perform the dutv ot the nation, but by no ireaiis, as we have shown, ..the dat} of the individual .Supposing the attempt to ? hn-ra been in earnest, it goes to prove, what we have maintained, that, whatever other rauits he may Mve-nd he has a tolerably good shart> oi teem Couia jPfapolecu w a 'brave incapable of fear, and as regardless of assassins as of so many summer flies, ho should be killed, we will venture to prechc ^at the manner of his death will prove ns to be correct on this point. But we do not expect that he will die by the Eand ol an assassin. We would counse the.trench, o ab'ure, for ever, an thoughts of killing Louis Napoleon, and to set themselves to work vigoronsiy to ki Napoleonic system. Let them believe us a*°.™ hands at liberty, that it is not to be acqui j^vi(juai' or even by the virtuous devotion of a sing himself' supposing any such individual to pres Freedom is the work of the fchoo master, nolt the assassin. It is the pedagogue, with h and muffled' ^lS,S%^orS^r When a people have respect and attachment for those institutions which vo tr, oovern themselves. Until they shall have gone througl. this process it would not be of the slightest advantage to them to have Louis Napoleon killed off by an assassin, or by a fever, or even by an tmeute because if he were to die to-morrow, somebody else would, inevitably, take his place. We say, then, the thing to be achieved is, the killing of the Napoleonic system. Assassinate that, by all means; for such a deed the whole civilized world would applaud the French nation, But this, we repeat, must be accomplished by the patient acquisition of political and general know- ledge. One of the first fruits of such knowledge would be a rooted contempt for the writers, who have, hitherto, kept the French in a fool's paradise, by repeating day after day, and hour after hour, that they are the tnst nation in the world. It never occurs to them to note what a world we must live in, if that be really the case. The science of cutting throats may be a very respectable one, but it is inferior to that of establishing freedom. A man may knock out his neighbour s brains, without being able when he has done it to govern himself, to insure to himself the right of saying what he pleases, and of obeying only such laws as, by his representatives, he has himself made. Louis Napoleon expresses his pro- found scorn for every community which is not able to vindicate to itself the freedom of the press, and a free parliament. These are things which the French have not been able to do, while the inhabitants of England and Americe have done them. Accordingly, we think, it must be tolerabiy obvious, that the French are inferior to us. and not a little inferior. They babble about assassination. If we had a tyrant, we should not COUl- -mission any wild enthusiast to stab or shoot him-we should rise in arms--we should storm his palace-we should face his armies in the field-we should beat him in the open day—and we should then drive him into exile, that he might behold, with the eye of sorrow and shame, the glory and greatness of the land which he had attempted to enslave. This we did with the last Stuart King, and this we would have done with any other king that should have dared to follow his example. He recommend the French to consider these matters gravely and maturely.
SHIPWRECKS.
SHIPWRECKS. (From the. Times.) There is published from time to time a map, or rather a chart, of the English coast which excites but littlo attention among the gentlemen of England who live at home at ease," but which should be examined in a very different spirit. It is a record of shipwrecks. The chart of which we speak is marked in various colours, which by their gloom and intensity denote the places of great and greater danger, of suffering and of agony more or less complete. In some places, indeed, the lines are drawn in lighter colours, and there it is that the homeward-bound mariner is wont to reach his haven in tolerably security but as the tracery grows black and more black we are advertised of the spots where in each succeeding year the good ships go to pieces, and their crews are swallowed up by the pitiless ocean by whole companies at a time. One would have supposed that it would be enough to direct attention to such localities to insure the most perfect results which human skill could devise in the way of protection and precau- tion. Shallow channels, one would suppose, would be deepened landmarks would be brought out with un- mistakeable precision; hidden rocks, which were a-wash in the floods, would be crowned where it was pos&ible with lights, or lightships would be moored at hand in order to warn the seamen of the peril near. Where mechanical contrivances failed, or where inapplicable, security would be taken that hardy and skilful pilots should be ever at hand in the great water thoroughfares to conduct the returning seamen safe into port. If there be any nation in the world which should be honourably distinguished above others upon all such points, England is emphatically that one. It is the sea which has made us what we are. It is the sea which has borne our countrymen to the remotest regions of the globe. It is our naval preponderance which has made us a conquer- ing people; it is upon the prowess, and skill, and ad- venture of our seamen that the fabric of British power at the present moment rests. One should suppose, then, that all persons in authority would eagerly and un- ceasingly bestir themselves to remove all dangers from the path of our seamen which by watchfulness and in. telligence could be removed. When in mid-ocean they they must needs be left to themselves and to their own resources but there they can take care of themselves, and reckon themselves safe. Give them enough 1, sea- room," and they will ask for no assistance from man. It is when the run" is over, when they draw near to the iron-bound coast, or come amid the shallows which encircle our islands, that real danger begins; and this is a danger from which they could in a great measure be guarded if we but did our duty. It is scarcely too much to say that the dismal catalogue of wrecks on the English coast might be diminished by one-half. Those awful black lines of which we have spoken might be drawn in colouring by oue-half lighter if precautions were taken to mark out, in characters which could not be mistaken by our homeward bound seamen or by our seamen engaged in the coasting trade, those channels out of which they could nol direct their course without danger ot destruction. We have often thought that if noblemen and gentlemen high in office at the Board of Trade, or elsewhere, could but for one half-hour of their lives be placed upon the deck of a vessel which by its reckoning should be off the land, when the sky is dirty and the weather foul, and could watch the anxiety to catch the first glimpse of the light which should in- dicate the ship's true position in the midst of dangers thoroughly appreciated but totally unseen, they would be very apt during the remainder of their official career to take especial care of all marine lights and light- houses. I Now, wiil it be believed that, of all parts of the British ooast, the entrance of the Firth of Forth is left in well-nigh total darkness? Turn off the gas in Oxtord- street, and it is not impossible that we should hear of mishaps occurring to the omnibuses, carts, and cabs which attempted to make their way from Tottenham- court-road to tiydePark. A similar result has followed from the prevailing darkness in the Firth of Forth. In that Firth there is a rock, or rather reef of rocks, known as the North Carr Hoclt, and on the rock there is a beacon, which serves perfectly well to indicate the whereabouts of the danger when lie weather is clear and the sun is high. But, unfortunately, vessels are compelled to pass up aud down the Firtli in all weathers and at j all hours of the day and night. The consequence, at least onc of the consequences, has beon-we qnote the words of a Scottish correspondent who lately addressed a letter to th is journal upon the fJubject-" the loss of one of the finest steamers sailing from Granton, which occurred no later than last Saturday morning"—the letter bears date December 3, of the past year,—" the steamer Commodore, which struck on the Carr Rock. Shortly after the Martello was following in the wake of thatvessc). The inlartello is a total wreck, the Commodure seriously damaged. The Queen, a large steamer was totally lost within the last twelvemonths and within the last few years the Windsor Castle and the Mars, all on the same rocks." The writer assumes it as a notorious fuct that the whole north side cf the Forth, from Burntisland to Dundee, is in total darkness. This, however, is not the case, for it seems there is near the north shore, a light on the Isle of May, but on the southern side there is not a light between Leith and Berwick-upon-Tweed. On this side it is plain that there ought to be a light somewhere about iantallon, and the South Carrs Reef, on which there is at present a beacon, has been suggested as a fitting spot for its erec- tion. It is not, however, enough to point out a grievance even so serious a one as this, without indicating the quarter to which we should look for remedy. It is the Northern Lights Board, or the Commissioners of the Northern Light, upon whom is devolved the duty of causing suitable lights" to be erected on such situa- tions as these. The Board of Trade here in London is a a board of ultimate appeal In such cases in other and simpler words, Lord Stanley of Alderley, the President of that Board, can, if he sees fit, compel the Northern C01DUlissioners to do their duty. There is a recent Act ot Parliata^jjt under which there has been amalgama- tion ot all ligwo and by help of this Act, with the sanction of the tlo-d of Trade, the Scotch Commis- sioners can erect as many licrht houses as the public ser- vice requires, for which purpose they can procure the requisite funds. Here, then, is a great and posnv,e evil resulting an- nually in a serious loss of property, a,d a great sacrifice of human lite. Here are the persons who,i10UU remedy it, and here are the others who can compel persous, in case of failure to do their duty. We earnestly trust that it will be sufficient to call public attention t,, tile subject to insure a sufficient and speeify remedy. fc are in the midst of the long dark nights, and when we have done with the long dark nights the season of con- stant east wind will set 111; and the east wind adds its greatest terror to that iron coast. Before order can be taken in the matter most probably some brave and hardy seamen who are now doing their duty in the pride of strength and manhood will fall a sacrifice to the negli- gence of the official persons who should have lighted up the dark Firth at this critical point. But at least let the delay be as brief as po-sible; let that bright gleam be quickly cast upon the troubled waters which will wain seamen of the deadly danger in their path. Surely the Society for the Vindication of Scottish Rights might for a whIle postpone the claims of the red and injured lion and attend to the lighting up of the Firth of Forth.

WATER and WATEH, LEMONADE, GINGERADE, and FLUID MAGNESIA; also of the IMPERIAL kEKUAN SELTZER, WATERS, 15 and 37, BRIDGE-SIKELi, BRISTOL. u k„„ There are probably no Mineral Waters in the world whose curative powers in a great variety of diseases are so indisputab.ly attested when used at the spring, as those of Neider Seltzer, 1.11 Germany, known in England as Seltzer Water, ant! yet it IS equally true that no Mineral Waters have more extensively failed as a Therapeutic agent when administered in this country. A German philosopher of repute, who had taken great pains t. collect information respecting them, bears testimony to un- doubted eificacy in all disorders of the kidneys and bladder, it, gouty, rheumatic, scorbutic, cutaneous and putrid disorders, in dyspepsia, consumption, and hypochondriacal and hystencal affections, and (owing to their diuretic properties) it, dropsy. Another writer, of scarcely less eminence, pronounces them as of the greatest service in glandular obstructions, as they renller the blood and juices more fluid, promote a free, vigorous, anll healthful circulation, and correct viscid humours. Holm recommends them as the most safe and gentle of all lmeia 1 Waters. He says they contain none of that bitter purging Malt which is a disadvantage in most mineral springs, but act directly on the system and kidneys, whereby they may be used with ad- vantage by persons of the most weakly constitution. The qiuestion arises, how is it that waters which hav been product ve of such unquestionable good in Germany, should fail of their purpose when imported into England? The answer has been supplied by the researches of Hoffman, Dr. lirocklcsby,and others. The Seltzer waters are moreliable to be spoiled bv keeping than any other waters,and they seldom or never reach England in anything like good condition. Dr. lirocklesbv discovered, us the re-ult of many experiments, that they did not depend for the,r efficacy so much upon their sails as upon the salts with fixed air. He ascertained that the factitious air yielded by a bottle full of the water, containing 14 oz. 7 drachms, in a heat never exceeding 116 degrees by Farenheit's scale, amounted to a quantity which occupied a space that required 2 oz, tlracams of water to fill it. As the result of several examinations of tlt3 salts of the Seltzer water, he found that, by the time he came to act upon them, they had let go by much the greatest part of their fixed air, and had thereby probably lost most of the virtues in herent in the pure fresh water itself; and Brocklesby con- cluded, as the result of all his researches, that" the active virtues of this water depend more on this elastic matter, or fixed air, than on any combination of its saline and earthy contents." It appearing to Messrs. Itoughsedge and Summers that the experiments thus instituted with the Waters had solved the problem of their failure in England, and finding the results of the investigation confirmed by the well-known commercial fact that the mere accidcnt of leaving a small space between the cork and the water in a bottle of the imported Seltzer will deprive it of its pungent flavour, they devoted themselves to a S- of how a Mineral Water could of "the "R OY\IS el T"R S p a, in combination with an equal or greater quantity^>f that elastic^ r upon which, in .he opinion of the «mhnrities its active virtues depend. I hey have the satis- ? ptinn of announcing that some years of experiment have re- sulted in complete success, and that they can now manufacture a Water which is to the full extent as medicinally efficacious, as, and even more pleasant than Seltzer Water drunk from the natural spring. The Imperial German Seltzer \Vater, Manu- factured by Itoughsedge and Summers, N,ill be always found equal in quality, and in perfect condition, while its perfect i dentity, chemically, with the German Water, is attested by the following certificates from W. llerapath, Esq., F.C.8..

Cull's (of Weymonth) little boy, when an infant, had a scurvy place on the crown of the head it was shown to his medical man, but his skill was quite useless; he tried everything he heard of, but without performing a cure; it got worse, and ran all over him, so that he was obliged to be removed about in a sheet; the only thing that relieved him was the Radapole Spa, until he was persuaded to try the foor Man's Friend, aud two pots performed a cure, after suffering more than eighteen months he is now seven years old, and a fine boy. Another boy, by the name of Groves, and three children of Mr, Edwards, Dentist Dorchester, were cured of the same complaint, by the Poor Man's Friend.—September 13th, 1855.

About average supplies of beasts were received up to our market this morning from our own grazing districts, as well as from Scotland, for the time of year; but, compared with Monday last, their condition was in ferior.

We were again very moderately supplied with sheep, the general quality of which was by no means first-rate. Nearly all kinds met a slow inquiry; but we have no change to notice in prices.

The improvement that has lately taken place in the demand for metals generally continues to increase, and great fumness is now cvinced by most sellers. Not only have prices assUllIcd an upward tendency, but in many cases business has been transacted at advauced rates. The existing^ feeling seems favourable to extended operations; it ia^ therefore, not improbable the most sanguine expectations may be realized in a short time the reduction in the Bank rates yesterday greatly en- couragingsuch prospects. Iron.-In rails there has been a further improvement in prices, and 10s nett cash, has been paid for several thousand tons, and 15s. less 3 per cent, discount. English bars are held firmly at £ 6. I0i.f.o.b. at the works. Swedes iron, of Indian specific^011' is now quoted £ 14. In Scotch pigs there has been a steady but quiet market, mixed numbers for tho most part having been sold about 55s. Gd sellers on 'Change quoted 56s., mixed numbers, g.m.b., f.o.b. in the Clyde. In English 1 in qualities at present no altera- tion in fixed prices has beon announced nevertheless, smelters object to sell in the market., and a rise is, therefore, shortly anticipated. Large parcels of tin- pla'os hive been sold, and we now quote Is. per box higher, but few manufacturers will sell under 26s. to 27s. per box, at the works.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. 14 -Our iron market continues to exhibit an improved tone generally, and a considerable business has been done in Welsh bars at 27 per ton, f.o.b. here, the minimum figure for good brands. Makers are indisposed to accept largo specifications, or contracts for forward delivery, even at present prices. For Staffordshire iron, also there is more demand, now that prices are definitely fixed, and for good makes cur!\e" rates are well supported.
