SPECTACLES are NECESSARY WHEN the Eyes water, are misty, or fatigued after reading ; WHENthe print blends, and the letters appear to be double ; WHEN more light than formerly is requisite— per example: WHEN the candle is placed between the eyes and the book ; WHEN objects must be held further off to be seen more clearly ; WHEN much difficulty is found in threading a needle. The above are premonitory signs of decaying sight. and indi cate that an optician should be consulted without delay. From long and extensive practice Messrs.

The thirty-ninth annual meeting of this society was held yes terday afternoon at Willis's Rooms ; Admiral Harcourt in the chair. The report stated that there had never been a time since the period of the Reformation where there was so great a necessity as at present for all who loved truth as it was in Christ to combine for its defence and propagation. During the past year a traitorous element had appeared within the church of England, and was developed to such an extent that even the most unobservant could not fail to recognise its baneful existence. A service identical in all essential points with the Romish mar was openly celebrated in our churches by men calling themselves members and ministers of the church of England, and the venerable primate, whom no one would accuse of holding extreme views or indulging in party feel ings, had publicly and solemnly expressed his conviction that such men " Are doing the work of the worst enemies of the church." Surely, then, it was time for protestant churchmen to bestir themselves, if they would preserve and hand down to their children " The faith once delivered to the saints" in all its purity and simplicity. The committee could not but deplore thelamentable apathy that prevailed amongst protestant, generally on this subject. Still they rejoiced to believe that in many places throughou itse coun try there wenssignsof anawakerung. A growing rest in the work of the society was observable, and this had been manifested by the increased support given to the mis sionary work. During the year 10,0.58 tracts had been gratuitously distributed, and 122 books granted to indivi duals or libraries, while nearly 9,000 of the former and 215 of the latter had been sold. The receipts of the society during the year had been 4,036/., and there was a balance in hand of 4311. Mr. George Finch moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by the Rev. William Clementson, and agreed to unanimously. Resolutions in support of the objects of the society were then proposed, and spoken to by the Rev. Dr. Cumming, the Rev. Dr. Blakeney, and other clergymen. RAGOED SCHOOL UNION. The 22nd annual meeting of this society was held yesterday evening in Exeter Hall, which was crowded ; Lord Shaftesbury took the chair. It appears from the report that the efforts of the union have hitherto been limited to a circle around London, with a radius of five miles from Charing-cross. It was now recommended by the committee to extend the circle from five to 24 miles. During the year there has been more than usual activity in providing school accom modation, and 74 additional schools or places of worship have been opened. There are 326 Sunday schools, with an average attendance of 26,000 ; 204 day schools, average attendance, 18,750 ; 217 evening schools, average attendiuse, 8,264 ; making a total of 747 schools with an average attendance of 61,984. This shows an increase of nearly 3,000 scholars, with a larger increase than usual of voluntary teachers, who number 3,029 as against 2,699 last year. 2,000 male and female pupils belong to Bible classes. There are 396 paid teachers in the employ of the union, and 480 paid moni tors. The refuges in connection with the union contain 450 boys and girls as inmates. The clothing clubs which exist in 79 of the schools have received 1,639/. in deposits. During the year 1,924 ragged scholars have left school for situations.

Mr. Compton. THE LAW or LIBEL.—On Saturday Mr. Fisher, President of the Provincial Newspaper Society, and Mr. Charles Nicholas Cole, solicitor to that body, had an inter view with the Solicitor-General, with reference to changes in the law of libel. The Provincial Newspaper Society, in common with the newspapers of the country, feels that the present law of libel presses unfairly upon them. It prevents them giving correct reports of public meetings, leaves them exposed to action for libel, and also encourages speculative or vindictive actions. The Provincial News paper Society asserts that it is beneficial to society that the press should not be needlessly hampered in discharging its duties, and asserts that it is the man who utters a libel in the presence of reporters, who are taking down his words, and not the publisher who should be held respon sible ; and it also claims for the press that it should not be mulcted in costs unless a jury found that substantial damage had been done to character. SPECIAL CHORAL SERVICE IN WESTMINSTER ABREr.—This choral festival in aid of the National Society fur Promoting the Education of the Poor, of which her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen is the patron, will take place, by the kind permission of the Dean and Chapter of West minster, in the nave of the Abbey, on Wednesday, the 16th of slay. Hitherto, at these festivals of the society, although the choir has been large, (in 1863 it numbered nearly 500 voices), the gentlemen of the Abbey choir and those of the Sunday evening choir have not taken part, but at the festival on the 16th inst. their services will be given in the society's behalf. The Lord Bishop of Lincoln will preach the sermon. The music for the service, which will commence at 3 p.m., has been selected from the com positions of Tallis, Cooke, Croft, Handel, Turle, Am EXTRAORDINARY RIIPTILII.—PLYMOUTH, MAY 7. —The Black Ball packet Young England, 1,017 tons, Cap tain Alexander Clarke, belonging to Messrs. James Baines and Co., was o ff Portland yesterday bound for London. She left Sydney on the Ist of February. The Young England has brought home a tremendous specimen of the saurian tribe, which, in the opinion of Australian sevens, is more closely allied to the extinct reptilia of the pre-Aciamite era than any living animal yet discovered. It inhabited the unexplored interior of Queensland, near the source of the Fitzroy River. The accounts related of the destruction caused by the monster upon the native population seemed perfectly incredible until the formidable jaws, armed with fangs of astonishing size, were beheld. Added to this, its claws of prodigious power, and its invulnerable skin, ren dered it most fetuaable. In the contest which ended in its destruction one claw was torn off, but with this ex- Da caption the body is in perfect preservation. eIITISTAL PALACE. ONE Siirumvo DAY.

This afternoon, about six o'clock, a well-dressed man fired several shots from a revolver at Count von Bismarck in the Unter den Linden. The would-be assassin was immediately arrested, having been seized by Count von Bismarck him self, who was not wounded by any of the shots. BERLIN, MAT 7, 11 p.x. The attempt upon the life of Count von Bismarck was made at 5 o'clock this evening as the count was returning on foot along the Unter den ,coulat Linden, after having had an audience of the King. Upon reaching the Schadow-strasse he was fired at frees behind by a man who discharged at him two barrels of a revolver Both shots, however, missed the count, who immediately turned and seized the man. In the straggle which ensued between them, the itassasin fired three more shots from his revolver. Bismarck remained unhurt, with iiiii — ,aaarii; tine of a alight eoutusion. His clothes were also burned by the nearness of the three last discharges. The perpetrator of the attempted assassination, who was immediately arrested by the police, is a man, 22 years of age. It appears that he came from Hohenheim, in Wurtemburg, with the de liberate intention of assassinating Count von Bismarck. THE IMPENDING WAR. VIENNA, Era 7, EVENING. , Orders have been issued for placing the whole , Austrian army on a war footing, and for cones- , troiting the army of the north on the Bohemian and Silesian frontiers. In view of the danger of war the government intends to convoke all the provincial Diets throughout the empire. It is stated to have been resolved to utilise the eccle siastical property in providing for the expenses of war, and the government is reported to be now ne- , gotiating in order to obtain advances on the security of this property. It is confirmed that the Austrian reply to the last note from Prussia positively rejects the demand of the latter Power that Austria, in view of the Italian armaments, should disarm. Intelligence received in Vienna announces that armaments are being carried forward in the Middle States. The Directors of the National Bank are stated to have protested against the emission of bank notes by the government. Count Mulinen is said to be the bearer of important communications from the French government in reference to the declaration of Italy that she will not attack Austria. In Vienna little credit is attached to the reports asserting the probability of a Congress. BERLIN, MAY 7. Prince Frederick Charles will take the chief command of the Prussian army. A despatch is believed to have been forwarded to Stuttgard by the Prussian government demanding explanations respecting the armaments which are going on in Wirtemberg. It is asserted that the second division of the guard have received orders to hold themselves in readiness for a forced march, and that their desti nation is Gorlitz, on the Saxon frontier. The Narddeutiehe Zeitung and the Kreuz Zeitung of to-day announce that, from patriotic reasons, they will be unable to publish any further infor mation respecting the locality and extension of the Prussian armaments, more especially with reference 1 to the expected military movements. FLORENCE, MAY 7. Intelligence received here from all the Italian provinces reports great enthusiasm in favour of war. The National Guard are offering their ser vices, and the soldiers called upon to join their regiments are everywhere readily coming forward. Prince Humbert has taken his departure for Lom bardy. General Prim has left this city for Paris. A royal decree has been issued ordering the forced currency of the notes of the National Bank of Tuscany for all payments throughout the Tuscan provinces. In the debate to-day in the Chamber of Deputies upon the financial projects of the go vernment, Signor Scialoja, Minister of Finance, accepted the proposals of the committee, but stated that he would not consent to any reduction of the taxes he had proposed. GENOA, MAY 7. Yesterday being the anniversary of the depar ture of the Thousand of Marsala, a great demon_ stration took place in this town. Shouts were raised by the crowds of " Long live:the King ! Ga ribaldi and war Five hundred Genoese have offered themselves as volunteers during the last two days. NAPLES, MAY 7. The municipality of Naples has voted annual pensions of from 200 to 2,000 francs to Neapolitan soldiers who may distinguish themselves, and to the families of those who may be killed in a war against Austria. The municipalities of Crema and Palermo have adopted resolutions to a similar effect, BP CIA, MAT 7. The country surrounding Mantua has been inun. dated by the Austrian engineers, and the forti Seations of Pesehiera and Legnano have strengthened. TOULON, MAY 7. The Italian iron-clad frigate Varese, having been ordered home immediately, left here to-day with a crew composed of sailors belonging to the mer chant navy. THE NEUTRALITY OF SWITZERLAND. PARIS, MAT 7. The Patric of this evening states that Switzer land, in view of the probability of war, has •ob tained a declaration from the Great Powers re affirming her neutrality. RE-ELECTION OF MAZZINI AT MESSINA. MESSINA, MAY 6. Mazzini has again been elected to represent this town in the Chamber of Deputies by 329 against 203 votes. INCREASE OF THE BELGIAN ARMY. BRUSSELS, MAY 7. It is stated that the Belgian government shortly intends raising the effective of the Belgian army to 80,000 men, and that the orders for recalling the men on furlough are already signed. An important work, by. Gounod, called " TJlyeeee," is about to be produced for the first time in this country at a conoert to be given at St. James's-hall on the Bth of next month, in aid of the funds of the Hospital for Con sumption. A cantata by Weber, which has not been per forms 1 hare for 20 years, will also be introduced, besides Mendelssohn's music to " Midsurimerplight's Dream." The attractive character of the music, and the wids-spread interest felt in the above popular charity, cannot fail to create an eager demand for tickets for this assent.

The nomination of nandidatee to fill a vacancy in the representation in parliament by the resignation of Lord Clarence Paget, one of the liberal members for the borough of Sandwich, Deal, and. Walmer, who has accepted the post of Commander of the Fleet in the Mediterranean, took place at Sandwich yesterday. In order to prevent • recur rence of those unseemly proceedings which have charac terised former election contests at Sandwich, the authori ties took the precaution of appointing about 50 special constables. From an early hour in the morning supporters of the two candidates (Mr. Thomas Brassey, jun., liberal, and Mr. Charles Capper, conservative) paraded the streets of Sandwich, preceded by bands of music and colour bearers. Mr. Capper, it will be recollected, contested the re presentation of Sandwich at the last general election, but got defeated by upwards of 60 votes. The proasedine commenced at 2 o'clock, when the candidates with their friends occupied • hustings erected in the cattle market. Their appearance was the signal for outbursts of feeling on the part of • large concourse of spectators, exhibited by yells, shouts, and other extreme exhibitions. Order hav ing been restored by the mayor, Mr. W. Mona proposed, , and Alderman CAVELL seconded, Mr. Charles Capper as a lit and proper person to represent them in parliament. A similar proposition on behalf of Mr. Thomas Steamy having bean made by Mr. F. LEITH, and seconded by Mr. BUSHELL, Mr. CAPPER came forward to address the electors. He maid he did not aspire to the position of representing the constituency in parliament from any unworthy motive, and belonged to a class who occupied their position by their own exertions. Happily in this free country the doors of parliament were open to any man whom his fellow citizens might choose to send there to represent them, and he held that it was not only • laudatory but a praiseworthy ambition for any man to endeavour to seek a seat in the House of Commons. Mr. linAamEr next addressed the electors. After thank ing them for the courtesy with which he had been received since his appearance amongst them, he proceeded to say that he came forward as a firm but consistent liberal. lie was nut, however, in favour of any great organic changes, only such as were demanded by the growing intelligence and prosperity of the country. To such measures he would give his generous support, and believing as he dd that the reform question came within the limits of what the coun try required, he should be prepared to support it. Fur ther, he believed that government would have neglected • duty by further deferring the subject. The show of hands was taken amidst considerable confu sion, the mayor declaring the result to be in favour of the conservative candidate. A poll was then demanded, and fixed for the following (this) day. ITALY. (YILON MB OWN CORIMPONDENT.) FLORENCE, MAT 3. I have no new fact of a striking nature to tell you respecting the great question which is occupy ing the mind and the tongue of every man, woman, and child here to the exclusion of aught else. The war fever is indeed rising rapidly to over-boiling pitch. It would be difficult to say what might be the result of a sudden communication to the nation that after all there was to be no war. And I think it is out of the question to suppose that the government here could have acted as they have done if war were not decided on. The nation would feel, in any other ease, that the application of the Finance Minister for full financial powers, which were, as you know, granted to him by an unanimous vote of the Chamber (save one), was really a piece of simple eseruquerie. It would amount to obtaining money under false pretences. There was a large and enthusiastic meeting in the square in front of the Pitti Palace last night, the object of which was to insist on the employ ment of Garibaldi and his volunteers—not to insist on war ; that is deemed quite settled. A deputa tion proceeded to the Chamber, wherelthey were told that they were acting very irregularly ; that the only mode for them to approach the house was by petition. The popular leaders took the rebuke in perfectly good part, said that they were sorry to have erred, and retired to prepare a petition. To-day the Chamber is in secret sitting. The first result of the full powers granted to the Finance Minister has been a decree, published yes terday, announcing that the National Bank has agreed to lend the government 250 millions, at 3 per cent.. payable half-yearly at the close of each half-year. In return the bank is from that day (2nd May) till further disposition, relieved from the obligation of paying its notes in cash. The other great banking corporations of the kingdom are authorised to pay their notes either in cash or in notes of the National Bank at their pleasure. Two-thirds at least of the metallic reserve of these banks will be " immobilized"— i. e., is to remain in the vaults ; and each esta blishment will on application receive from the National Bank a quantity of its notes of equal value to the metal thus held in reserve. The villas around Bologna which are within the line of the new fortifications have been ordered to be vacated by the 6th of this month. Of course your readers have not allowed the dust thrown by the Constitutionners statements, that the Italian government had declared that Italy was making no preparations for war, to enter their eyes. In the midst of all that is going on around us such state menu appear too absurdly ridiculous been WINDSOR. Yesterday, at the Town-hall, Mr. J. Jones, the mayor, read letters received from two electors, urging that, as they understood a number of prizefighters had been en gaged as supporters of one of the parties at the forthcom ing election of members for the representation of the borough, the necessary steps should be takes for the pre servation of the peace of the town. About 100 special con stables were accordingly sworn in to assist the borough police, while it was resolved that an application should be made to Colonel lilandy, the chief constable of Berke, for extra assistance. This application was forwarded to Reading in the course of the day. To-day there will be a meeting, convened by the mayor, at which the magistrates of Windsor, the four candidates and their agents, have been requested to attend, in order that arrangements for the carrying out of the election in an amicable manner may be co ncocted. Party feeling is beginning to run rather high, and the excitement culminates as theday of election approaches. Rough-looking strangers, stated to belong to the prize-fighting fraternity, of whom there are said to be about 90, have arrived in the royal borough, causing appre hensions of a " row" on the day of election, unless precau tionary measures are taken. The mayor and magistrates have, however, acted promptly, and will to-day increase the number of constables to 150 men, including the borough police force. It is hoped that by these measures any contemplated breach of the peace will be provided amiimt. Such a thing would be sheer folly, even if thought of, a riot could, of course, be immedi atel y re p ressed by I the as aid of the garrison.
