BATHS of HOMBURG, near FRANFORT-ON THEN A INE.--RUMMRR SEASON, 1868.—The MINERAL WATER* of 11011 BURG, as evidenced by the analysis of the celebrated Professor Liebig, are stimulant, tonic, alterative and aperient. They are of admirable service In removing disorders of the stomach and other Intestines. They stimulate these organs when the abdominal circulation is defective, assist the process of secretion. and give a healthful regularity to the °mum of nutrition sod ansindlation. They are powerful remedial agents in cues of enlargement of the liver, In affection of the spleen ; lu hypochondria, Jaundice, hemorrhoidal disease and obstinate coastipation. In cases of gout, and all other affections produced by inefficiency of the digestive functions, the most happy results have been obtained from them. The efficacy of the waters Is more especially recognised by those who drink them at their source: for then, the InvogoraUng air of the mountains, the gaiety of the surrounding scene, and per fect abstraction from the cares of the world, concur In saluting the action of the medicinal beverage. The magnificent Ku:. house, which, in the beauty of Its architecture, the judicious distribution of its apartments, and the richness of Its decora tions, surpasses every other edifice of the kind on the banks of the Rhine, contains a variety of specious and splendidly deco rated rooms : a greed saloon for balls and concerts ; a superb dining-room where there is a table-d'hOte • la Francais', twice a dey, at one and at five o'clock, furnished by the celebrated Chevet of Paris, who Is the lessee of the refreshments of the whole Camino.

THE LIST OF THE WOUNDED IN ABYSSINIA. We are enabled to state the following particulars with reference to the fifteen men (including two officers) wounded in the British part of the Abyssinian force. It will be remembered that Theodore's troops attacked us on the 10th April. Six men of the 4th Regiment were wounded then, with Captain Roberts ; five of these were injuries from rifle-bails, the officer's wound being from one of these serikiug and perforating the left elbow-joint. On the 13th, the occasion of the assault of Magdala, seven men and one °Mose were wounded ; the latter was Major Pritchard, of the Royal Engineers, who sustained an insignificant injury of the right shoulder from a splinter, but Mot at all an insignificant con tusion of hat part and the arm. Of the seven men wounded, three were from gunshot, one from a lance or sword, and three were otherwise injured. The wounds were mainly those of the extremities. Some were flesh wounds merely ; others injuries to, or fractures of, bone. Compared with what we know of the character and amount of the wounds in European warfare, our army may be fairly congratulated. It no pyaemio or other symptoms secondary to gunshot wounds appear, which there is no reason to expect where the number of wounded is so small, and the care and attention so great, we may expect the patients to make good recoveries. The fongeingamonnt dose not of course, include the wounded of the Indian section of the Abyssinian expeditionary force —British Medical Journal.

But before we tarn to the wide field for rueenlatMn thus opened, it ma interest our readers if we regal the chief facts, so far as they are known is literary circles, attending the history of the paper which is now contemplating so great a modi• fication. The Daily News first appeared on January 21, 1846, at the price of 51 —a penny less than the regular price of tie London morning papers in those days. It was set on foot by Messrs.. Bradbury and Er.n , , who drew around them in the intellectual departments of their nadertaking as brilliant a staff as probably ever was engaged en a single journal. Mi. Charles Dickens was appointed editor. Either at first or during the subsequent career of the paper, it numbered among its regular coatribagers suck men as Dunglas Jerrold, Gilhret Abbott Alleckett, W. 1. Fox, Charles Mackay, Peter Cunningham. the Ker. 1. Mahoney, beCer known as. Father Prout, and Mr.. W. H. Wills, the well-known coadjutor of Mr. Dickenr in hie later weekly publications. Other departments went as notably Merl ; Mr. George Hog,rth, for instance, being long the musical critic ; while Mr. John Dickens, fitter of the novelist, was at the bead of the reporters' staff, But the great novelist himself did not long find thvedi torial chair of • daily paper suited to him, and sitar about six months be resigned its duties, and was ma ceeded by the distinguished historian of the timer' of the Commonwealth, Zr. John nester. This gentle man continued in office about awe years, then mak.m; way for Mr. Eyre Eyries Crowe, she historian of Fnanor-,. who retained the positive for a few years. Mr. Freda rick Knight Hunt. author of the " History cf• the Fourth &tate," nezr assumed the editorship, me' held it till his death in 18:4. Hir place was filled by. Db. William Ilreir, • member of the- Scottish bar, who,- though not knowu by any public work, possessed an ability* combined with erudition and energy which peculiarly adapted him to the work of tie journalim and whose death in ISSB drew forth a tribute el admiration, ire.l regret from nearly every important paper in London , or the provinces. The Times, in noticing the event. observed of the Daily News under Mr. Weir's managements, "We have often differed with it, but never without sincere respect fur the ability and gentletnoaly spirit with which it was conducted,—a spirit which has made it, the youngest of our con.remporaries, a w.wthy representative of the English press." After this event, the editorial control reseed into the hands of the gentleman who now hold* it, and under whom it is enough to say it has lest none of the charac teristics which its prior editors had stamped upon it. But while these changes were passing over the chief management, they were accompanied with other., in the proprietorship and price. It is no secret that the attempt to establish at that time a daily paper, even at what we now consider the extravagant price of 3d., resulted in loss. So important, indeed, was the maintenance of the journal considered by the leaders of liberal thought, that at different periods Mr. Cobden, Mr. Bright, Mr. Milner Gibson, Sir Joseph Paxton, and other leading men, became pecuniarily interested in the venture. Experiments were tried, too, at different prices. After its first six months it was reduced to half size and half-price—i.e, twopence-halfpenny. In October of the same year it was raised to 3d. In February, 1849, it was raised again to its original dimensions and price. Finally, in May, 1859, on the abolition of the stamp duty on newspapers, it was reduced to 3d., at which figure it has ever since remained. Of late years it is understood to have been fairly remunerative, But whatever the variation in ownership and management through, which it has passed, the Daily News has earned for itself the praise of haring been throughout its. career entirely consistent in its principles. It was esta blished to support the more generous, enlightened, and' fearless doctrines of the liberal party, and from this lofty function it has never swerved. Its adherence to true andi high principle has often seemed to imperil its corr, mercial success, but it has always proved at hat thaw truth and uprightness, even if they counsel a. policy for the moment not popular, bring thee ultimate reward of public confidence. The lies it took on the Chinese war, on the American war, and on the Jamaica disturbances, may be noted as ea.- spicuous cases in which it went counter to what seemed the popular side at the moment. In the case of ide American war especially it stood almost alone among the London daily press in its steady support of the north, as well in regard to political rights as military prospasta. Solely from the Dail!, News (and very remarkably.item the letters of its American correspondent) was the teeth to be learned respecting the objects and progress cif that mighty struggle. Such honesty was dangerous, forret the lIX.MODi the upper clam of newspaper-readers did net de sire honesty. But when the end came they tweed in anger against the false prophets who had prophesied smooth things to please their hearers; and the Dam,* News reaped a large reward of approdistion for its emstageous advocacy of what all men at last found out tallow been the truth from the beginning. Holding thus the very foremost rank among English journals ; from the beginning the organ of this advanced, yet not extreme, party in liberalism ; and Ink*, as some circumstances have seemed to indicate, adopted as an organ by the party which must next come into peeler, to carry out in action the principles which have long been professes. as articles of faith, the Daily News Biggs itself now upon the great public for support at • prim which only • great circulation can make sufficient. Wgl it succeed? The question is of importance beyond the fate of any single journal, for it involves the question whether the nafiln is yet so far advanced as to prefer to read • paper which is high-minded and fair-judging, as well as able and in teresting. There seems at least • hopeful opening for such an attempt. Of the penny papers in London, the Standard is abandoned to torylam, the Star, extreme is its radicalism. the Telearapli brilliant, not to may gaudy, in style, rather than trustworthy in principle. There muss, one would conceive, be a vast mama of the rending public who would prefer a genuinely upright liberal paper to the rant of class or the bash of false gems of speech. The seraindlicial character of the Doily Newsom the organ of the liberal leaders will at least at first help it to attain an exoeptionaliy distinguished position amoep genera readers.—The Enpli•A Independent.
