The mineral waters of Homburg, as evidenced by the analysis of the celebrated Professor Liebig are serv ice ni "Item tine, and aperien• They are of 'admirable in removing disorders of the stomach and other intestines. They stimulate these organs when the abdominal circulation is defective, assist the processes of secretion, and give a healthful regularity to the orgasm of nutrition and aasimilation. They are powerful reme dial agents In cases of enlargement ef the liver, in affection of the spleen, in hypochondria, jaundice, hemorrhoidal disease, and obstinate constipatton In cases of gout, and all other affection produced by inefficiency of the digestive functions, the most happy results have been obtained from them. The efficacy of the waters is more especlally recognised br these who drink them at their source ; for then, the invigorating air of the mountains, the gaiety of the surrounding scene, and perfect ab straction from the cares of the world, concur in assisting the action of the medicinal beverage.

It is positively asserted that three treaties with Belgium, two of them relative to the overflowing of the Meuse and the Scheldt dues, and the third a treaty of commerce, will be signed to-morrow. TEE ANGLO-SAXON. —This ill-fated vessel belonged to a Liverpool company, which ie subsidised by the Cana dian government to awry mails. They have now six steamers, and one building. They have lost five vowels within the last six years. The Anglo-Saxon had not only the Canadian malls, but also mails for the western, 1 north-western, and south-western parrs of the United States on board. It would appear that the Anglo- Sams was approaching Cape Raos for the purpose of communicating her European news there. It was at one time hoped that every American packet would call at Cape Race on their eastern and western passages to receive American and communicate European news, but for the last six months few pickets going eastward have been able to call on account of the dampr incurred by so doing. Could say means be adopted of lessening this danger, we should ramie* almost three days later news by the New York steamers than we do at present—that is our news from the United States would be only seven or eight days old, instead of ten or eleven as is now the case. DPHYRI7CTION OP ♦ LARGE SHIP BY FIRE.— Ltvgaeooy NOIDAY.—Today the following telegram was posted in the Underwriters' rooms :—" The captain of the ship Imperatrice Sneaks arrived in London from Natal, reports seeing a large ship on firs, burnt to the water's edge, on the 26th and 27th March, in lat. 1 N., long. 26 W. The captain endeavoured to reach the burning vessel, and if possible to render assistance, but he was unable to do so owing to calms" Some people here believe that this vowel was one of the Alabama's prices; that she had bees burnt by Browne, ; and that the statement of Cap tain Halliday, of the ship Helen Nicholson, arrived here a few days ago, to the effect that he saw a sulwarine voicasie eruption on the 27th March, ill lat. 1 N., long. 26 W., is erroneous. The supposed eruption is thought to have been the burning vowed sighted by the Imperatrice Envoi.. No boats were seen about, and it is supposed— news the versa has been destroyed by Semmes—all on baud perished. CAmmuttas AsrLum FOR SOLDIER.S' WIDOWS.— _ _ . . The twelfth annual meeting of the subscribers to this insti tution was held yesterda at the lJnited Service Institu tion, Whitehall, ;Stanhope in the chair. Major Farrel, the secretary, read the report, which stated that his Royal Highness the Prises of Wales had consented to be come a patron of the asylum. There are at present 46 widows enjoying the benefit' of the asylum, and three more will be elected at the present meeting. There is a large number of applications for admission, and although there is plenty of room for the whole of the appl , cants in the asylum, the committee regret that the want of foods precludes them from increasing the number under their charge, and also prevents them carrying out any necessary improvements ; they, therefore, earnestly solicit increased support, as they regret to say, with the ut most economy, they were unable to meet the expenses of the past year without drawing on the invested fund to the amount of 2001. The committee desire to acknowledge the kind interest shown for the institution by hex Royal High sees the Princess Mary of Chmbridge, is instituting . a special foil for the purpose of providing nurses in special cams. The total income for the year, including the 2001. drawn from the invested fund, was 1,9681.6.. sd. The amount now invested was 7,6311. Bs. 7d. The meeting was addressed by Sir Henry Boothia, Colonels Koppel, Dalrymple, Crawley, and Hart, Means. H. Pownall, Caswell, on. Augustus Liddell, and others, strongly urging the claims of the asylum on the regimenta in the British army, on the *Moen, and on the public at large. The report was adopted. THI Diorama no LANCASHIRE. —At the weekly meeting of the executive committee of the central relief fund, held at Menchester yesterday (Sir J. Kay-Shuttle worth, Bart., in the chair), it was reported that the receipts of the past week had amounted to 3,2801. Bs. 2d. The balance in the bank was 389,5061. 7s. ld. lir. Commis sioner Farwell reported that there was a further decrease last weak in the number of persons receiving perochisl relief, in 27 unions, ea compared with the previous weer.. of 5,073. The total decrease since the 6th December last is 84,348. Questions connected with the employment ad cotton workmen on public improvements were brought under the consideration of the committee by Sir J. Kay- Shattleworth, and the several member, reported the works which could be undertaken by the municipal and other bodies, and the nature of the legislative or other facilities desirable to encourage and enable theme public bodies to carry out such works The committee were of opinion that labour for • ordinary wages on desirable public improvement, could be found for the chief portion of the cotton workmen now in . receipt of relief. if means to obtain loans for long terms at low rates of interest and legislative facilities for sea works were provided.

The revived comedy of The Ladies' Battle, prodooed at the Olympic by Mr. Ferree, served lut night at this theatre to introduce Mr. Leigh Murray in one of his most =coastal characters. It is satisfactory to find that thie excellent actor has lost little of hie power during his long period of Mimosa, and that his keen dramatis instil:el is etell as tens and his command of expression ea great as they were ten years ago, when he was constantly before the public. The Ladies' Battle is a somewhat too literal translation frost the French, bat its dialogue is pointed, its situations are agreeable and well contrived, sod it walla nothing but refined, self-possessed active; to make it popular with an audience who relish high oomedy. Whether the patrons of the Strand Theatre are exactly this kind of audience may be fairly doubted, and the actors, having little practice in this delimits class of pieces, must not therefore be judged too severely. The performance—taken altogether—was very crafitabie. Mr. Belford threw the necessary Ramat al re pose its the character of Baron de Montrichard ; Mr. Par selie was mealy and impulsive as ire Flarigneul ; Miss Ada Swam borough played with true girlish spirit as Leonia, and Miss Baton, though a little too violent, was a most seta allaCeCostateat As Gustave de Gagnon—the timid lover of the Counties, who is suddenly thrown into a position of dangle by being made to penemate the proscribed Flarignal —Mr. Leigh Murray left little to be cleared. Hie sat*, especially in the more pathetic parts of the third sot, was rewarded with the loudest applause, and he was honoured with a special call at the end of the comedy. MR. YATES'S EaTICHTLIITMENT.—ThuI entertain ment, which has held plemant pomeesion of Albert Smith's room at the Egyptian-hall for several months, and bas bad a large share of public patronage, will be brought to a pre mature close this week, in masque's!. of Mr. Power's appointment to an important post in the colonies. Mr. Yates, deprived of hie partner, and having other labour on his bands, baa DO desire to carry on the undertaking single handed, the name and responsibilities of such an entertain ment being greater than most persona would imagine. The hat performance, we believe, will be given next Saturday. ASSOCIATION FOR PROMOTING THE WELFARE OF THE BLIND. The ninth annual meeting of this society was held yesterday at Bt. James's-hall ; the Archbishop of You' in the chair, supported by teed Ebury, the Chancellor of the Exchequer the Bishop of Chichester, the Bishop of Sc Arch, Professor Owen, kc. The CHLIBIIAN, in introducing the object of the meeting, mentioned some remarkable instances of blind persons hay lug attained to • high proficiency in literature, arta, and .ieinies.

I The Bishop of CMCIOLSTIR moved the adoptionlof the " Ve 4 ClLtiicaLcon of the EXCHEQUER (who was received with much applause), in seconding the motion, said there was no institution existing in this city that bad greater claims on the benevolence of the public than the one on whose behalf they were easembled. fie thought the rules by which it was guided admirably adapted to carry oat its objects, which were not to withdraw the blind from the domestic ties of family, not to make reclaims of them, but by kindness, instruction, and healthy employment raise them as near as poosibl; to the same state of enjoyment with their more favoured fellow-creatures. Employment was necessary for all, but much more so for the blind, for it brought them comfort, resignation, and an honourable and independent subsistence, teachiag them not to depend entirely for help on others, but to help themselves. (Hear.) He thourbt the title of the society inadequately expressed its objects, looking at what the society aimed at and what It accomplished. The treatment of the persons under the charge of the society, both as to employment mod instruc tion? was admirably adapted to its object, and snob as all Chnstian and benevolent hearts could desire. He only wished that by the extended support of the public its use fulness might be still further developed. (Cheers.) Lord Ebury, the Bishop of SL Asaph, and other gentle men having addressed the meeting, the report was adopted, and a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro ceedings. During the meeting a choir belongiog to the school Nang some of Handal's anthems in a very pleasing manner. RAILWAY AND PUBLIC COMPANIES IN PARLIAMENT.

Mr. Calvert, Q.C., replied in opposition, on behalf of the Corporation of Dublin and other interests, submitting that the most emu. dient oourse for the committee to adopt would be to refer the entire question to a royal commission, to sit and sift the matter on the spot. Ultimately, after half an hour's delibe ration, the committee decided th at the break that now exists between Kingstown and the other railways was pro ductive of great iIIO3IIVOIIiIIOCO, that there should be a com mon central station, to be made available for the several railways entering Dublin, to be located on the southern side ; that the Dublin Metropolitan Railway was the best adapted for the purpose, while at the same time it would provide the most direct oonsmunicatioa between England and all parts of Inked.

From the statement of finances it appeared that the total hems for the year amounted to 16,2064 14s. 7d., and the total expen diture to 16,0901.198.5 d., leaving • bamboo of 114115 a. 24." Lord LtrXDIX, in moving the &denies el the report, congratulated the supporters of the sands pea the pacific position which the education a s endi s o . a ca now occepied after the engin of last year, when were la fear that the President of the Ocor.mittee of would have over thrown entirely the educatioul eyelets of the country. That alarm had subsided, and it behoved them now to strengthen their fortifications against any future bortllity. The resolution was seconded by Hr. IiAIIIII7IIY, ILL, sad carried unanimously. The Rev. W. ARTHUR proposed • resolution, to theeffeet that the peewt state and prospects of elementary mineation were such ea greatly to and to rassulate to in creased efforts I. a work so evident ander the Mite make and blessing, and so topmasts the social and moral well-being of the poorer Mmes. The Dean of Inborn; in seconding the reminders, re ferred to the very tatiefectory result at the gimbal°a i which had taken place previous to the meeting, and ex. pressed his delight that the children were not trained to treat the Pentateuch u a system of algebra, and to plus minus before one text and another till every verse of that book, which was the granite foundation of the Bible, had been swept away and obliterated. (Great cheering.) The resolution was agreed to. The meeting basing been further addressed * the Bev. W. Bann, the Rev. lir. Rycroft, the Rev. A. Ransil, and Mr. J. Heywood, and the following resolutions having been also adopted—" That this meeting, while it reiaiess at the Tarim educational agencies now in operation, would express its sanest sympathy in the scriptural sad comprehensive of this society, end feels awned that its growing and consequently greater peonnory reguirments, ' meet with a corresponding support aad That the thee& el this meeting be given to her maisity tha Queen, for outinusom of - her royal patronise sad soppert," • Bart Bossard. said—Pei haps you will permit me, before welting for the other resolution—to which I hops you will mount, but which regards only myself—to be moved, to shout myself on account of various pnsstng sagsgemente. I have a shop at Whitehall—(laughter)—which must be attended to, and there is also another society that mule in Pshoopud whose meeting lam expected to attend this afternooo. (Hear, hear.) I am compelled, therefore, to take leave of you, and in doing so I have to thank you for the support you have given me Is the chair. I Auld be more loath to depart if, in fact, there wen any doubt among us, or any fear among us, as to the principles we have long adopted. Who is then now that questions that the education of the whole country is a benefit to the whole country? (Heir, bear.) Who is there now that questions that in adopting a scriptural and religious education, sod not merely a secular education, we have founded education epos the right basis, sad that having all themaans—having the greatest facility io this country from the general reli gious belief of the people, in amalgamating religion with maim , education, we have been right to adopt the religions basis which we have adopted? And who is there, after all, that doubts that the education which we and other societies have diffused throughout the country has bees a great national benefit, and that in extension ad its conapro bending the whole kingdom would be of the greatest advantage to the present and to future times. If you look to the beginning of the century, when there were years of scarcity nearly mounting to famine, you will find that the tummies of that time win not ignorance merely of the poorest ohms, but there was ignorance in the government and ignorance ea the judicial bench, which leaded to ag gravate the evils of the scarcity from which the people were suffering. If you look again to the years 1817 and Ibl9, yea will And the working claim breaking out into Me of violence, which we ascribe, sat to their being worse mu than exist at presort, but to the ignorance in which they lived of the laws which govern society, and by which their wants were then inadequate supplied. (Hear, bear.) Contrast with those periods o f 1801,1817, and 1819, that which we have seen at the present time—the severe sufferings which all engaged in the cotton manufacture have undergone, the patience with which they have borne those privations, and the good sense they have shown in every effort they have made, and the remarkable prudence with which they have shown themselves to be endowed, and you will see the good effects not of a change of the character of the people of this country, but tire good effects of their being more enlightened—of the strength end the value of education among them. (Cheers.) With three matters, therefore, upon which no gentleman and no lady here present can have any doubt, I thaak you for your kind reception of me ,• end, believe me, my object, as it his hitherto been, will be for the remainder of my life, to give my best support to this society, which 1 believe is one of the means of promoting the knowledge of God and the good conduct of men towards use another. The noble earl then left the room amidst loud and pro- longed cheering. A vote of thanks was afterwards mcceded to the coble earl for presiding on that occasion, and the meeting sepa rated. Tim usual pubho examination of the boys' school took place before the meeting, m the premiere of Tart linasell, who congratulated the teachers andpupile upon the results *Whited.
