France has proclaimed the principle of non-inter vention, and has asserted it by force of arms against Austria in Lombardy and Central Italy. According to what principle are the Roman people to be held in durance by foreign bsyoneta, while the people of Umbria and the Marches are free ? All that Italy and Liberal Europe demand is that the Romans shall be left to decide for themselves under what government they are content to live. Whatever may be thought of the obstinacy of the Court of Rome, there is at least a dignity and con sistency in its attitude which is not to be found in the Imperial protectorate. M. DE Li GDERONNIFILE'S rebuke to the pre tensions of Italy is conceived in the spirit of an agent provocateur, and suggests a doubt whether his prompters are entirely satisfied with the ces sation of all excuses for reinforcing the garrisons of Civita Vecchia and Rome. Such is the confidence generally felt in the good faith of the Second Empire, that it is universally believed that a French army was ready to pounce upon Naples last week. Perhaps the reinforcements which are still pouring into the Papal territory are less likely to remove that im pression than M. DE IA GUERONNIEREN admoni tions to confirm it. The Emperor Nsrourou declines to settle his account with the Romans ; and La France is good enough to assure them it was never due. Surely this is very like a recom mendation to the Romano to take counsel only from despair. HISS WE= AT LONDON BEIDGIL. TEM 150.....Af1ra00e. Oh. Os. To-KOsaoW-44ratag, Ob. Sas.. ..Aftaracas. Oh. Ma LONDON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6. THE inscrutable Sphynx we have heard so much of in connection with French politics is found on closer inspection to be nothing more than the leaden mask of an Undecided Man. In private life we all know into what deplorable blunders and even crimes a man who can never make up his mind to do the right thing at the right moment is liable to fall. It is only in the awful shadow of a throne that this vulgar infirmity of purpose looms like the mystery of inscrutable power. The Undecided Man is a nuisance to his friends, and to all who approach him in business. His weak ness is apt to resemble knavery, and is often mis taken for it. The malady is incurable; it grows with age, and with the indolence and self-indulgence which easy circumstances encourage. In private life your Undecided Man, who as a boy was probably a compound of the sneak and the lout, is marked and avoided, unless he happens to be an amiable fool, and then he is tolerated and pitied. It is the Undecided Man in power that becomes a danger to himself and all his neighbours. His actions are almost always perverse, whether he means well or ill ; because he sees the better course and follows the worse, suffers difficulties to accumulate around him, and has neither the moral courage to make a resolution, nor the moral strength to keep one. Like a fatalist, he waits blindly for events, and trusts to circumstances to extricate him from the consequences of his own vacil lation. Well, Europe at present accepts and suffers a great Undecided Man for the arbiter of its fortunes. That is the whole secret of the deep and wide-spread malaise which characterizes the present political situation. There is one man in whom all the energies of France are absorbed, who presumes to control the destinies of Europe, and who does not take the trouble to know his own mind upon any question submitted to his judgment. The influence he exercises is as vast as it is unscrupulous ; and it is exercised without responsibility to law or conscience. The world is silly and servile enough to gape with admiration at an inscrutable will, which is nothing but an immense capacity for mischief, and an im mense incapacity for telling the truth. Thus, at this very moment intelligent Europe is asking, through all its organs, what decision it may please the Emperor of the FaEwcH to come to in respect to the Roman question, now that the last pretext for the occupation of the capital of Italy by a foreign garrison is removed.. The only answer vouchsafed to these anxious inquiries is that the EMPEROR, like the capricious young woman in the Irish ballad, "has so great a mind, it takes a " long time making up." Italy may be in a fever of impatient hope, the Government at Turin may be in torments of helpless humiliation, all Europe may be demanding the end of a crisis which has lasted too long ; but the Emperor NAPOLEON can not, in a few days' interval between the waters of Vichy and the baths of Biarritz, undergo the fatigue of being just, generous, or prudent, when a stroke of his pen and a flash along the wires from Paris to Turin would give peace to Europe and independence to Italy. No man has a better right to despise his fellow creatures than the present ruler of France ; but there is a point at which deliberate trifling with the gravest interests and contemptuous mockery of the clearest rights becomes a danger. If the Party of the Boudoir, speaking through La France, faithfully represents the Councils of the Empire, it is not only M. Itirrazzi's kjabinct that is doomed. M.

Miwi RYA'S EMIGRATION SCHRM E. —An inte resting discuuion took place yesterday, at the meeting of the Manchester Board of Guardians, on the question of Miss Rye's scheme of female emigration. The guardians, it seems, have power to devote M. a head to such a pur pose, but many of the members of the board thought that the project was inopportune, both in tune rod purpose. It was urged that Miss Rye would only take good and steady girls, who were as much wanted at home as in the colonies ; but, as one of the speakers said, if Miss Rye would take women whose charitc ten were not so good, she would be coeferring a benefit on the country as well as the emigrants, by removing the latter out of the sphere of dangerous influences. Ultimately, the guardians declined to take auy part in the promotion of the emigration scheme, deeming it more consistent with I their duty to confine themselves to the relief of the existing distress.

The Premier arrived here last night from Ridding., Derbyshire, and received the Mayor, Town Clerk, and several members of the Corporation, at the George the Fourth Hotel. This morning Lord and Lady Palmerston, accompanied by the Mayor, visited the extensive lace machine works of Messrs. Hartshorn and Oldknow, and were highly pleased with the intricate machinery for making curtains, far which that establishment is so justly celebrated. From thence they proceeded to the lace warehouse of Messrs. Dunnicliffe and Smith, Stoney-street, and where her ladyship made several purchases, amongst which were a dozen of pile falls. They also inspected the bonnet-front machinery' and expressed themselves highly pleased with the rapidity with which this work is carried on. Upon leaving the ware house, the people outside cheered his lordship most voci ferously, and the noble pair then drove to the Midland Rail way station, and left for her ladyship's estate in Northamp tonshire. Lord and Lady Palmerston will return to town to-morrow evening. HEALTH OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY.— (Ttos DAY.)—The venerable primate passed a quiet night, but it was the quiet of insensibility—free from pain and suffering of any kind. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales ar rived at Buckingham Palace from Windsor Castle yesterday morning at half-put eleven o'clock. His royal highness returned in the afternoon to the Castle. His Imperial and Royal Highness the Archduke Charles Louis of Austria, attended by Baron Hamster% Baron Schnesburgb, and suite, has left the Burlington Hotel, Cork-street, after a lengthened sojourn, for Scotland. His Excellency the Russian Ambassador and the Baroness Brunoow will leave Chatham House in a few days for Brighton, where they have taken a residence for a few weeks. His Excellency the Turkish Ambassador leaves town to-day to join Madame Musurus and family at St. Leonard's-on-Sea. His Excellency the Saxon Minister has left town for Paris. The Marquis of Breadalbane has been confined to his residence in Park-lane far some days past by severe indisposition.

The marriage of Major-General Sir Henry Raw limos, K.C. 8., with Miss Seymour, daughter of the lateiMr. Seymour, of Knoyle, and sister to Mr. Henry Seymour, M.P., took place on Tuesday last, at St. George's, Hanover-square- The ceremony was performed by the Rev. George Baulks eon, Camden Professor of Ancient History in the University of Oxford. Major-General Bloomfield, Inspector-General of the Royal Artillery, left town yesterday on a tour of inspec tion in Ireland. Major Teesdale, V.C., will accompany the gallant general during his inspection. The Master Cutlers' annual dinner took place at Sheffield, last night, but the absence of guests, specially distinguished in official position or political views, took away the main feature of interest in the proceedings. The weather was again unfavourable for the Preston Guild, yesterday, but the display in the trades pro cessions was remarkable. The gloomy character of the day only dimmed the splendour of the proceedings—it did Dot spoil them. The government is about to pay Mr. Thistle thwaite, of Fareham, for laud in the neighbourhood of Portsmouth, which is wanted for the new fortifications, the sum of 95,200 f. The English squadron is still lying in the road stead of Copenhageu, and the cuiressel vessels are visited every day by crowds of curious sight-seers. There has been a marked exchange of civilities between the squadron and the city. The particulars of our importations of foreign wheat and flour from the beginning of the year to the end of July afford proof that up to the period of the commence ment of the harvest the supplies were on an ample sails. The total of wheat landed at the various ports of the United Kingdom during the seven months was 4,513,821 qrs., showing an excess of about 31 per cent. over the extraor dinary importations of the corresponding period of last year, and of more than 137 per cent. over those of the same months of 1800. Since the end of July the arrivals from America have continued to be of remarkable 'magnitude, and it may, therefore, be assumed that if the anticipations of deficiency in the home crop this year should be realised, we shall be found, to • fair extent, prepared. The varia tions in the sources of supply this year have thus far not been great, the United States, Germany, and Russia having each contributed very nearly the wane per centage as from January to July, 1861. The chief alteration is in the quantity from Egypt, which eoutinues steadily to increase. A subscription has been opened at Hamburg for LATEST INTELLIGENCE. ITALY. The French papers continue to urge upon the Italian government an amnesty, and upon the French cabinet the evacuation of Rome. The Debats, of to-day, asks if the official personages' at Turin are not frightened at the effect which would be produced if Garibaldi were brought I before the highest court in the kingdom, perhaps becoming an accuser in turn, showing his wounds received for Italy from the hand of Italy, and claiming for his defence Rome, still Rome, always Rome / Not a few of our Paris contemporaries betray a fear that the policy of delay on the part of the imperial government will tend to an immense increase of English influence in Italy. A decree has been published within the last few days at Turin granting an annual pension of 480 fr. to the 1,000 of Marsala who received the medal commemorative of that expedition. The number of survivors is about 500. Garibaldi arrived off Spezzia in the afternoon ; and a letter from that port says that the whole population assembled upon the heights which sur round the city to see the vessel in which he was confined. They showed great emotion, but uttered no cries, and gave no outward sigma except by wav ing their handkerchiefs. The Presse learns that if the Roman question has advanced no further a month hence the whole of the Italian ministers will resign. The Costiluzione diteslia of Turin contradicts the statement of the arrest of Mine. Mario (late Miss White) and her husband at Milan ; but adds that they would have been arrested had they not made their escape to Lugano. A Marseilles letter of the Ist, in the Progria of Lyons, says : Orders were given a week ago to the commander of our military division to prepare for tle embarkation of 30,000 men. Although that order has not been withdrawn, it is thought that the reinforcements to be sent to Rome will be less numerous. This evening a detachment of 200 men belonging to different regiments will embark for Clean Vecchia on board the Menageries Imperiales Company's steamer Vatican. H. Kisseleff, Russian Ambassador to I the Holy See, will also proceed U► the Ism vessels (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) FRANCE. PARIS, San. 5. The Moniteur of to-day announces that M.

(Per Boot* vii Roche'm Point) NEW YORK, AUGUST 27, almanac. The Huntsville correspondent of the New York Herald says Confederate General Magruder is in vading Kentucky with 15,000 men. Federal General Morgan has repulsed a Confede rate force near Cumberland Gap. His position is reported to be safe. The Confederate ram which was building at Savannah is reported to be a failure. Mr. Thurlow Weed leaves for Europe on the 30th. The Chippewa Indians have revolted in Minne sota. More troubles are expected. The Richmond Whig estimates the quantity of cotton destroyed since the commencement of the struggle at from four to six hundred thousand bales. _ _ Active skirmishing and fighting, with varied suc cess to both sides, continues in Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Missouri. Confederate General Morgan has defeated 800 Federal troops, under General Johnson, near Gallatin, capturing 300 prisoners, including John son himself. The remainder of the Federals re treated to Nashville. Federal General Rosencranz has proceeded with 30,000 men towards Juntown, Missouri, to attack 15,000 Confederates under General Armstrong. General Price is expected to make a junction with Armstrong, when it is believed an engagement with Rosencranz will take place. The progress of recruiting in the North is favour able. The enlistments still increase. Mr. Charles Ingersall, a prominent Pennsylva nian democrat, has been arrested for making a speech at a democratic meeting in Philadelphia, in which he declared that the North was no more advanced in the conquest of the South than at the beginning of the war, and denouncing President Lincoln's administration as the moat corrupt that ever came into power. President Lincoln has replied to Mr. Horace Greely's letter to him. He rays that he is empha tically for Union, and that he would retain or de stroy slavery, wholly or in part, if Union could be obtained by either means. Another war meeting has been called in New York for to-morrow.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING. The meeting of ministers has been followed by no official announcement. We have, however, in place thereof, a semi-official article of portentous length and ponderosity, by M. Grandgnillot, in the Pays, the object of which seems to be to propound the doctrine of the substitution of a French Em peror for an Italian Pope at Rome. Here we have an offshoot of the fanciful theory of the Latin race culminating in France. Practically, the aim of the article in question is the indefinite occupation of Rome by French troops. The question of Italian gratitude to France fur nishes a theme to the Naples correspondent of the Temps. He says : What will France do now! It is not my business to give that country advice ; I will only remark that the Preach are just now looked upon very unfavourably in Naples. Five ships of war have arrived to protect them, but will this squadron suffice to make them beloved? Three years have paired since the Italian war. The Bret year our gra titude elevated you to the heavens, and entirely obliteratcd from our minds your occupation of Rome. The second year we began to think of and remark upon it, but you cut us short by pronouncing the word " Magenta." The third year we began to murmur a little louder, but you bade us re member Solferino. That was enough to reduce us to silence. Now we are in the fourth year. There remains I nothing for you but Villafranca. Will France deem us very ungrateful if we refuse to keep silence any longer? I know not what France will think on the sub ject, but I know what Italy is thinking. Already an Italian friend tells me Napoleon 111., once so popular in Italy, is become au object of secret dislike, and of an undefined terror ; and a few months more of this insupportable datu quo will make him hated, loathed. Nor is this to be wondered at. Napoleon lIL, urged on by motives which it must rest with history to penetrate, flung the different peoples of the Italian peninsular into war and revolution, promising them freedom from the Alps to the sea. Fresh motives, equally impenetrable to hie contempora ries, caused him to pause when but half his pro gramme was performed. But still be has never ceased to hold out to Italy the prospect of Rome as her capital. By his permission one Italian minister after another, and lastly the King himself, have assured the Italian nation Rome shall one day be theirs. Can he wonder that when he now wraps himself in gloomy silence on the subject which is agitating twenty-two millions of people, and of which he is the sole arbiter, no attempt should be made by that people to repudiate the charges of ingratitude which are so unsparingly cast upon them Money is plentiful, and on the whole the Bourse displays unusual activity for the season.

Yesterday wait published the long-looked-for re vised edition of the Award List, in which aggrieved exhibitors hoped to find their wrongs redressed. The Commissioners apologise for the errors of the first on the score of "pressure," the juries having only terminated their labours on the 26th of June, whilst the award books had to be ready on the 11th of July. This could only be achieved by working night and day, and we must charitably suppose that it was in the nights, when the clerks were very properly asleep, that the various wrong insertions were made by them in a state of som nambulism. Since then the volume has been com pared with the minute book, and all the omissions and errors are now stated to have been repaired. This second edition will, it must be admitted, throw considerable oil on the troubled waters, but there still remain a good many discontented exhibi tors.

There have been no naval movements since our last, with the exception of the arrival, on the 24th, of her Majesty's ship Magicietine from Claudia. The Foxhound having undergone some slight repairs is now ready for sea. She conveys, it is reported, the next mail to Corfu. A general court-martial was held on the 25th to try pri• Tate Jas.

The trial is over, but the sentence has not, as yet, been made public. THE "SOUTHERNER" IN IRELAND. • An audacious swindle has just come to light in Cork. A short time ago a distinguished traveller appeared in the city of Limerick, who called himself Captain Miller, of New Orleans. He was about 32 years of age, this, and of a sallow complexion. He had large plantations in the South, and he was of count+ an enthusiastic Confederate. He had himself fought under Beauregard, and he showed some wounds that he received while fighting against the Northerners, of whom ha spoke with the greatest contempt. He had a vessel in the Shannon. he said, with which he intended to rue the blockade, and he was negotiating the purchase of others for the same purpose. Among those who were specially interested in the distinguished grainier was Mr. Michael O'Loughlin, who met him at Moores Hotel, and became the object of hie particular re gard. He was so well pleased with Mr. O'Loughlin's Sou thern sympathies and talents for business that he engaged hint as his manager, and agreed to take him out with hint to New Orleans at a salary of 300 dollars, or 751. a month. Mr. O'Loughlin was deligh.ed with this splendid offer, and charmed with the chivalrous bearing and generous spirit chased of his employer. He sold all he had, par an outfit, and prepared to emu the Atlan tic. On Thursday last Captain Miller and his manager arrived in Cork, and put up at the Victoria Hotel, both oc cupying the same room with two beds. As their stay in Cork was to be short, the captain advised his companion to leave his luggage at the railway terminus, taking the pre caution to have itlabelled in his own name. The conversa tion turned upon the serious business in which he was en gaged on the part of the Southern Confederation. He was to take out some twenty or thirty . tons of gunpowder, and several thousand stand of arms, tncluding as many Arm strong guns as he could manage to get. In the meantime he lived at the hotel in a style befitting a man of such property and engaged in such important transactions. Everything went on smoothly till Tuesday. On that morning O'Loughlin left the room to take a bath. When he returned he found that the captain bad vanished, having taken with him his manager's pane, watch, and clothes, all but a great coat. Information was immediately given to the police, and the tele , -ni. ph was put in motion. O'Loughlin's luggage had gone from the rail way station, and some vehicle must have been employed to take it. Inquiries were set on foot among the cabmen, arid with the aid of one of them the fugitive was discovered in a house in the town. He was arrested, and will be brought up at the police-office. Notwithstanding the audacity with which he carried on his swindling operation', it is said that the moment he saw the police-constable he fainted. It appears ttat he never was in New Orleans, though he gave a graphic account of his plantations in that quarter. THE FATAL OCCURRENCE AT REID'. BREWERY.— Yesterday morning an inquiry took place before Dr. Lankester, the coroner, at the Red Lion Tavern, Gray's Inn-lane, touching the death of Robert Staines, a stoker, employed in the brewery of Messrs. Reid and Co., Liquor pond-street. The wife of deceased, having identified the body, stated that he left Lis home to go to work, in his usual state of health, early on Monday morning, and had not been seen alive since. Andrew iiiiham a stage-man at the brewery, deposed that on Wedni;eday morning, about eleven o'clock, he was mashing, and the " liquor" (brewer's term for water), which was charged up with lime in one of the mash tuna, appeared to him to look very bad. In consequence, be took a long rake, and whilst raking round he suddenly came upon something which, by a violent effort, he managed to lift sufficiently to the surface, and discovered that it was the body of deceased. Mr. S mith,i assistant to the chief brewer, explained that there were four mash tuns, one of which only was in use at this time of year. The other three were kept filled with water charged with lime for cleansing, and not used in any way for making beer or ale. He thought it probable that deceased, in reaching over to wash his hands, accidentally fell in and was drowned. An open verdict of "Found drowned" was returned. SHOCKING DISCOVERY.—EarIy on Wednesday morning the trunk of a man was discovered in the " grip," and the head on the other side of the rail of the down line of the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway on Eamont viaduct, Yanworth, near Penrith. The arms of the deceased were folded, end his body lay in such a position as to favour the conclusion that deat h by decapitation was premeditated, and was not an accident. The body was conveyed to the Castle Inn, Penrith, and it was discovered that the deceased was Joseph Richardson, late a railway servant on the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway, a steady man, aged 40, but who unfor tunately made so serious a mistake in sigosllinga ballast train that it was found necessary to dismias hint. It is believed that this occurrence has preyed upon his mind, and that he sought suicide in the manner detailed ; this opinion appears to be supported by the fact that the deceased answered the description of a man who • few weeks back was found lying across the down line, on the same railway, at Peurith, when he was matched off the raga a few moments before the mail train passed over the spot where his neck was lying. The man found on the occasion jest referred to was apparently in a state of stupor; but when the person who found him came back to the spot to which he had dragged him, while he looked after the mailbsp for Penrith, he had walked off across the fields without thanking his deliverer or giving any account of himself. MR. Z. A. LEAMAN, M.P., ON THE HOUSE OF camoirs. In replying to the toast of the " House of Com mons," at a banquet given to the Mayor of Wakefield on Wednesday evening, Mr. E. A. Latham, M.P., sail ho ought to assume somewhat of the tone of en apologist. There might be times when the House of COCODIO4I might come proudly and boldly before the country, consdou. that it had discharged with feeders honesty all its high and responsible functions, conscious that it had honourably re preeented the best interests and highest aspirations of the noblest people on the face of the earth, that it had by wise and beneficial legislation enhanced that people's prosperity, and therefore might feel that io receiving the admiration, and respect and thanks of that people it war but receiving that which wee naturally and deservedly its due. Upon such occasions as these a member of that house, how ever much be might personally feel that respect and those thanks, yet included for • time in the great reputation of that assembly, he might stand op and with • certain ease and confidence respond to a toast of this description. He wished it was his fortunate lot so to stand up and so to respond ; but he felt that were he to do so he should see a smile upon the face of all around him. It would be simply ridiculous upon his part to assume for that British parlia ment the existence of virtues to which it did not appear to aspire; but whilst they deplored and deprecated that state of things let them not forget the moue which had produced it. For the merits of the House of Commons - and he spoke DOW simply as a burgess—the members were not alone responsible ; if they were not such as they wished them to be, they most remember that they were precisely the choice of the people, and that if apathy, and lavishness, and extravagance existed, it was the result of the people's determination. He did not wish upon a festive occasion like the present to indulge in somewhat gloomy reflections, and he must say that he was not one of those who see in the Home of Commons much cause of despair. A man who looked forward must now and thou look backward ; and one who did so would find that it was just those pe riods in which the constitution the moat rapidly improved and the most vigorously flourished which were invariably preceded by periods of unaccountable and unnatural quies cence. It wasjuet one of those periods in which it was their lot to struggle. They had lived and learned. They had seen many of those great questions to which as poli ticians they were warmly attached, go steadily backwards under the fatal auspices of • so-called liberal administration. They had lived to see reforms-- aod he made no apology in an assemblage of re formers for naming the subject—of the greatest and most urgent need. flouted and tabooed by the members of the liberal party—(hear, bear)--and what was the greatest hit ' radiation of all—be might say unnatural humiliation—they had lived to see the solemn pledges of their public men as sume something of a character of the public men of Austria and Frans--a standing jest. Well, perhaps be might have read history to very little purpose, and he might have studied the characters of those around biro incorrectly, but unless he was greatly mistaken in what he had noticed and studied, they would live to see those questions of reform amtime gigantic proportions, they would live Was that • reform was no longer • question of party, but of necessity ; they would live to see • glorious and imperishable chapter added to the history of British freedom. The hon. gentle man returned his warmest thanks to Mr. Tow, by whose kindness, he remarked, he was enabled to situ a member of the House of Commons. IMPORTANT MEETINGS OP PLOCEMASTERS AT WARMINSTER AND SALISBURY. A very large and influential meeting of the prin cipal flockmasten in South Wilts was held at Warnmister on Saturday List, for the purpose of heanug from Professor Simonds (who bad been requested to attend, in his o ffi cial capacity in connexion with the Royal Agricultural Society, by Mr. Pain, • member of the council of that society), • distinct statement of the nature of the disease which has so unaccountably shown Reel( in several flocks in the neigh bourhood of Devine, and the best mere. to be adopted to prevent its extension and lemon it. fatality. Mr. F. Lan (of Salford) having been requested to take the chair, the Rev. Prebendary Fan addressed the meeting at some length, arid in order to bring the matter emeti cally home to the comprehension of all who were present, put • series of questions to Professor Simonds, which he re quested that gentleman to answer consecutively, without in terruption. This the professor did, with a clearness and dis. Widnes. which showed • thorough knowledge of the disease from its origin through all its various stages. One question in particular was—what means the professor would recommend flockmasters to adopt to secure them against theprohabilityot heavy losers? To which Mr. Simonds replied that he would advise all flockmaateea to sell at home, where they could do so, rather than take their sheep to fairs ; but if they did take their sheep to fairs, and could obtain a fair price for them there, he would advise them by all means not to bring them back. In the case, however, of sheep returning home from • fan, he recommended that they should be put into quarantine for a fortnight or three weeks ; cud in the event of an outbreak of the disease, immediate recourse should be had to inoculation of all the flock in which the affection showed itself. The principal object of the meeting was to allay any im pressioo which have got abroad that the flocks in South Wilts were affected with the disease ; and for this Professor Simouds wss requested to inepect all the CV: and around the neighbourhood of Allington (near Salisbury), and report the result of his inspection at another meeting to be held at Salisbury on Tuesday. Professor Simonds promised to do so ; and another large meeting was accordingly held in Salisbury on Tuesday, over which Mr. F. Long again presided. At this meeting Professor Simonds entered at considerable length into • description of the first symptom of the disease, its progress, and the course to be adopted to arrest it, which was listened to with marked attention. He then stated that he had inspected all the large flocks in the neighbourhood, and that he was prepared to certify that they were in immediate health and quite free from smallpox or any other infectious disease. He added that he was ready, and would most willingly give every assistance to any , veterinary surgeon who wished it, with the view of showing the manner in which inoculation should be effected and the general treatment of animals attacked with small-pox. The disease in this neighbourhood (of Devizes) has made no progress since our last. Of the 400 sheep in Mr. Har ding's flock at Etchilhampton 92 have proved to have taken the disease caturslly, and of these 10 have died, and several more are likely to follow. Of the 318 which took the disease by inoculation, not one has yet been lost, and there appears no immediate prospect of death &moo; any of them. The same results have manifested themselves in other flocks in which the disease exists. in fact, every can shows more and more forcibly the necessity for mourn to inoculation the moment the disease appears in • flock, as the sorest means of mitigating the severity of the attack, and thereby of lessening, if not of entirely preventing, mortality. We may mention that Mr. John (lunges, a professor at the New Edinburgh Veterinary College, has arrived in Devizes, with the view, it is stated, of obtaining an inepee tion of the different flocks supposed to be diseased, and of re porting the reemltof his inspection to got ern men L. Under what authority Mr. Gamine undertakes this office we are unable to say, but we muchdoubt whetherthe farniersof theneighbonr hood will choose to have their flocks overhauled for such a n- Mr. Gamgee, we believe, obtained an appointment the medical department of the Privy Council some time since (when so much stir was made by Dr. Letheby about the influence of food upon the health of the country), to inquire into the sanitary condition of animals intended to be brought into consumption ; but that appointment gives him no authority to inquire into the condition of the Llds of flockmasters.—Derims Ga:ette. DEATH OF MR. HEARD, EC-M.P.—The e.ri; Examiner announces the decease of Mr. Jobs Isaac Heard, who for many years held a prominent position in the county of Cork. Mr. Heard was a man of large property in the town of Kinsale, and of great influence in the locality.
