These details seemed to be perleetky well known to the crowd, and from peer's catnap to oostermonger's cart, hearty pod wishes ap4 sheers were heard with an stingy anly wishes can give vent to, and that only.shen they are in earnest. There can be no doubt that in all circles Alt War is more popular than ever. There ;w ravage rejoicing over a humbled foe, NI. honest eotiefsetion ,at proving that the laid" at large has been in the right, and is now so lark 'nearer reaping the reward it deserves. We ere the newer to peace, because the country hat, in spite dal traitorous counsel in high and in low places, exercised and acted upon that rough good sense which, with all their faults, rarely deserts the great masa of oar countrymen. Amidst general rejoieirg during the put week, there has been but one quention asked, namely: "How aboat the future of the war? What are we to do next?" The condititro of the Russian army mast now be desperate, and must be going on from bid to worse. Whether ' it is to staffer the fate of the CZAR'S fleet and disappear altogether from the scene of its late defeat, le a qeseticto which must depend upon the energetic use made by English Ministers of the mains the country hae placed at their disposal. France can do much, and what she does, does well; but the suffi ciency or otherwise of the aid rendered her by Britain must make or mar the canoe in which both have been fighting. So far as our military adminis tration is concerned let the past be forgotten ; or, if remembered, only to act u a warning for future guidance. Ministers can have no excuse for any further shortcomings in the management of the war, as all parties seem now inclined to give them "one more chance." Thu War-office Gazette, of Friday lest, meaa some significant hints bearing on the emitted of the war. In general the document in qoaatios i. by MAinsiims of interest, except to such Alms as find their promotion announced in its solemn., or to such Inspiring young men as by winos of its official announcement spring from simple cattlemen into full blown cornets or ensigns. With the Gazette of Friday it is however otherwise, for in it we read that every cayslry regiment on home service has been augmented, some by one and some by two troops, so that a few weeks hence oath mounted corps in Eng land might if required be sent out to the seat of war with its complement of men folly made up to the war establistment. Assuredly this is • step—and a long one—in the right direction, although it is im ramble not to wish it had been taken twelve months age. But let the past be forgotten. Coming es this Gazette has done on the very heels of the Sebastopol victory, we accept it as an earnest of what Ministers are reeoived to do, and as • pledge that blow will follow blow upon the enemy until a victorious war is har binger of an honourable pesos. By the army at large, and more particularly by that portion of its "Seers who have bet their swords and good conduct to look to for promotion, last Friday's Gazette will be regarded as an earnest of better things to come. As the promotions this augmentation brings along with it have been " without purchase," several subalterns who bad risen from the ranks to the grade of lieutenant— bat whose purses were not well enough garnished Is permit of farther promotion according to our meet mercenary rules—have now attained the rank of captain in the same regiments which hove l witnessed their previous booonrable career. As an illustration of the manner in which pm. motion has been hitherto managed in the Englie service, we may mention that one of the gentlemen promoted the other day has been thirty-three years in the army, that he has been ten years a commissioned °Seer, and that be has horse his share in every Isaias' campaign and battle, from the siageof Bburtpore, soder Lord COMBERIME, to the present time. Another of them has been thirty years in his prevent corps, was promoted from sergeant to cornet sixteen years ego, and has seen the whole bodyof offices in the regiment successively enter it, and one by one pass over his bead. A third lieutenant just promoted to the rank of captain, has been nineteen years an officer, and, like the two former, has seen a great deal of motive warfare in India. tut Court. BALMORAL, Sim 14. The Queen and Prince Albert, accompanied by ' , the Priam of Wales, the Princess Royal, Princess Helene, Princess Louisa, and Prince Alfred, honoured the Highland gathering at the Culls of Braemar yesterday with their preseacs. lhe Royal suite eousisted of Lady Churchill, the Hon. Beatrice Dyne, Earl Granville, General the Hon. C. Grey, Colonel the Hon. C. Ptipps, and Mr. Gibbs. The approaches to the Castle were lined by the Farquharson Highlanders, under James Farquharson, Esq., of Invercauld ; and the Forbes Hiblanders, from Dan side, under Sir Charles Fortier. Her Majesty and their Royal Highn ware received upon their arrival by Mr. and Mn. Farquharson, and the junior branches of their family. The games then proceedeJ. They consisted of tossing the caber, patting the atone, throwing the hemmer, foot racing, and reel dancing. Her Majniy remained upon the ground about two hours, when the Royal party returned to Balmoral Castle. 8111.7. 16. Prince Albert left Balmoral yesterday moramir.atll o'cloek, attended by General the Hon. C. Grey, and pro. 'worded to Banebory, to meet Prince William Frederick of Prussia, who was expected at Balmoral apes a visit to tbe Qs'ea. Prince William Frederick arrived at Banchory by special tnin at a quarter past three, and after partaking of some refreehmont proceeded with the Prince to Balmoral, where the Royal party arrived at 7 o'clock. Prises William Frederick was attended by Colonel Heists*. But there is a good time coming for the army, IN at last begin to believe. Thanks to the force of pub lic opinion in England, and thanks also to the untiring exertions of the press, the monopoly of military rank can no longer be held by either the wealthier or the more aristocratic classes. Merit and professional knowledge, combined with such a due regard for seniority as will not allow of the latter taking precedence of the two former, most and will be the future teats of fitness for puma tion. But if this is to be ensured the efforts of army reformer* must not halt or flag. Much has been dose but more still remains to do. We have not gaited the recent great victory because of the excel lence of our army administration, bat in spite of it; and although we may ongratelate our selves upon military promotion being at last granted to men without money, it must not be forgotten that the many-headed mon ster calk d influence, stands ready at the first favourable opportunity to eat up the few benefits obtained by England for her army. It cannot be gainsaid that if we have lately had good reason to rejoice in a triumph such as has been seldom heard of in the world, the price of that victory ha. been great. It is equally true that, with better management, we should not have had to pay so dear. And if we want to follow up oar victory, and make it effectual towards the attainment of the lawful aim of war, now is the time for the public not to suffer any measure of utility in the army to be shined over, or a pretext made that because of present nooses we need not be urgent in insisting on effectual reforma tion in our land service. From the War-office Ga ulle mentioned above we augur favourably for the future—perhaps we are too sanguine. Perhaps the ay. mentation of cavalry and the promotions of deserving men which it has led to, were both but measures determined upon before the great news of last week was known. Be it so. The coincidence of events' is a fortunate one for Minister., ptovided they have THE BALMORAL BONFIRE.—When it was reported the good sense and honesty to turn them io ssotssibot hot that B . butopoi had fallen large geaa to proper account.

The Medical Council, in their report to the Board of Health, my— Toe Scientific Committee have taken pains to investigate the possible retaliate subsisting between the outbreaks of cholera and certain meteorological conditions. Mr. Glaisher's elaborate report will be studied with great interest. If in a subject so obscured by inappreciable itfiaancee he has not enseended la arriving at shallots demonstration, he hos gone War to establish high probabilities, which tater, obese may raise into certainties. And, here again lot us remark, that his admirable system of observations could not ea fully organised until the epidemic had already attained it. climax. He has, however, shown, that outing the three epidemics there has imitated a great predominsnee of cslm, rendering the season defective in those atmospheric cheeps which rearm the parity of the air, and, at the same time, an endue height of the barometer, operating against vaporous Mellen ; and further, a great .sous in the temperate,* of the Thames at night, as compared with that of the sepeebeentbent atmosphere. giving rise to nocturnal deed ef vapour, which are neces•arily charged with iia parities derived from the foul wettest. of the river. The greet principle which w first laid down in Dr. Faer's tit tit to the Registrar-Demirel respecting the relative . . moody enjoyed at particular altitudes may be museett with this new link of evidence. Mr. Glaisher has elearli shown that in the low-lyin► districts, wherein the epidemic 'sauteed its highest mallgriiiy, the air was stagnant, and moisture, impregnated with impurities, was especially induced to hover. 13pete1 eaamiWations of the atmosphere ware conducted by Dr. Thomson and Mr. Rainey, but their results pos sum little more than a nege:the interest, slow they failed to discover any new or significant element of an organic nr inorganic nature, as a possible agent is the causation of cholera. The chemical and microscopical inquiries into the water supply of houses and districts suffering from cholera have been investigated by Dr. Thomson and Dr. Howell, and the results are embodied la the isport of the Scientific Commit tee; and u the period is now at hand when the water com panies will be required to have t►eir sources of supply amended, the Medical Council state that the facts before them shoo the soceerity of a stringent enforcement of the provisions of the Metropolis Water Act, and of an 'aqui', ri to bow far these provisions are adequate to insure the parity and wholesomeness of the water supplied to the public; for the abolition of cesspools—in itself a sanitary advantage—haa indirectly led to another evil. The excrement' of the population ere now to a great extant reefed into the Thames; and, as might have been 'spurted, oar chemical and microscopical in quirers anent in stating that traces of this abominable filth are found by them in the drinking water supplied to a large part of the population. The extraordinary irruption of cholera in the Soho dis trict, which was earefully examined by Mr. Fraser, Mr. Hughes, see Mr. Ludlow, does not appear to afford any exception to generalisitions respecting local states of uncleanliness, overcrowding, and imperfect ventilation. The suddenness of the outbreak, its immediate climax, and short duration, all point to some atmospheric or other widely diffused agent still to be discovered, and forbad the assumption, in this instance, of any communication of the , disease from person to person, either by infection or by con tamination of water with the eacret►ons of the Mak.

Prefect of the Basset Pyrfickes, in the following terms I am requested to tell Madame Bosquet that her son is doing will, and that he hopes to be able to write to her by the nest mail with his wounded arm. This good news, dated Sept. 11, is sent by Marshal Pelissier. A letter from Berlin of Sept. 14 says that M. de Hutafeld was instructed by telegraph to oongra tulate Napoleon 111. on his maps from the last attempt at assassination, and we learn to-day that the Prussian Ambassador was the first to offer his congratulations on the subject. This announcement is of course meant to intimate that Prussia is en titled to credit as a particularly friendly power. Bat the same letter mentions that the Emperor of Russia, choosing the King of Prussia for • confidant, told him, in a telegraphic despatch, announcing the fall of Sebastopol, that " Ramie would never make peace after a disaster." M. Erdan (the writer in the Pr ease), M. Coulon- Pineau (the publisher, of the Rue Monsieur le Prince), and M. Maulde (the printer), were yesterday tried and convicted by the Tribunal of Correctional Police, for the offence of having, in a work called " La France Mystique," written by Erdan, and printed and pub lished respectively by the other two defendants, " in sulted and turned into derision the catholic religion, such religion being one of the forms of worship recognised in France." The court, however, " having regard," as it is stated in the judgment, " to the peculiar position of the defendants, and to the regret expressed by them," passed but a very light sentence. M. Erdan is condemned to eight days' imprisonment, and a Sue of 100 fr.; the publisher is fined 100 fr.; and the printer, 40fr. The copies of the work inculpated, " already seized, or which may hereafter be seized," are ordered to be destroyed. "La France Mystique" has had a considerable circulation in France, and has been reviewed in England. A letter from Florence gives very terrible accounts of the ravages of the cholera. No less than 11,000 persons have, it is stated, been carried off in the month of August. The population of the city, which is on an average 100,000, is now reduced to 80,000 by death and flight. The Grand Duke, it must be said to his credit, has set a noble example. Although his family has left, he remains himself, and, clad in the black veil of the Fraternity of Mercy, he sometimes assists in the burial of the dead. It is positively affirmed in this letter that ten persons were lately buried alive. The horrible fact was brought to light in this way :—An Italian warehouse-keeper in Peitz - viol° (a faubourg of Florence) was buried for dead in the Trespiano cemetery, with many other supposed corpses in a common grave. He awoke to a sense of consciousness, and so thin was the covering of sandy earth above him that he made his way out to the surface. Still weak, he lived for three days on roots in the forest which surrounds the grave yard. At last he recovered strength sufficient to reach his house, where he startled his family, who were in mourning for him. He assured them that he distinctly felt the bodies of numerous people interred with him moving about. The grave was consequently opened, and it was found that many (ten in number, as I have said) had stirred, and several of them had bitten their fingers in agony, and otherwise injured themselves. They were all dead when the investigation was made The utmost excitement prevailed on the subjec among the population. The International Statistical Congress held its last meeting for the session of 1855 yesterday. A Ger man delegate, M. P. Heuriche, presented to the Congress a work published by himself in 1851, on the advantages of a common language and a common monetary system, to be used by agreement between several States. A discussion followed, in the course of whioh Chevalier Debranz (Austria) proposed that by way of setting a practical example of the advan tages of the system, the Congress itself should resolve to use but one language. He farther moved that this language should be that which diplomacy had adopted, on account of its clearness and precision— the French. This motion, supported by some mem bers, was opposed by M. Varentrapp (Frankfort) and M. Teixeira de Vasconcellos (Portugal), on the ground that such a resolution would, in effect, make the Congress a French or Belgian, instead of an international one, since many members who might speak usefully would be compelled to be silent if they were not at liberty to use the tongue most familiar to them ; and also on the ground that the present Congress had no right to bind the next on such a subject. It was further suggested that the resolution would in all likelihood be supererogatory, it tieing probable that the next Congress would vote that its debates should be carried on in the French language, as those of the present had been. Finally, it was resolved that the question should be left to the Committee to be appointed to prepare next year's Congress. Business being concluded, Baron de Czosrnig (Austria) proposed a vote of thanks to the Emperor for his gracious reception of the Congress. M. Rouher, the Minister of Commerce, in acknow ledging the compliment, stated that the Emperor had followed the proceedings of the Congress with the utmost interest, and announced that his Majesty would be happy to receive the members at the Tuil leries on Monday. Thanks were voted to Baron Dupin and all the members of ;the bureau. It was afterwards resolved that a French committee of orga nisation should be appointed to determine (as the Belgian committee did in 1853) in what country and at what time the next (the third) International Con gress should be held. The President then declared the session closed. In the evening the members of the Congress dined together at Doules restaurant, in the Palsis Ro jal. Baran Charles Dupin, •ioe-president of the Congress, proposed the Emperor's health ; and M. Roaher . . gave as a tout, " Science." Both their speeches were remarkable on this account, that they contained an energetic protest against a notion which they admit exists, that liberty has been extinguished in France. Baron Dupin said that • foreigner had said to him just before sitting down to table, that he and his friends were told when they were coming to France, that they would not be free to express their opinions. This supposition, they must all have observed, had been refuted by the ur banity with which their president, M. Rouber, had listened to the observations of every member who had addressed him. The French government, he added, only prohibited the most fatal of all liberties, the liberty of anarchy. M. Roaer fol lowed this line of argument, and said that the "liberty of bad passions" had been banished from France by the nonage and energy of its sovereign, bat that liberty in its entirety did not the leas exist. I cannot tell whether you will think this explana tion altogether satisfactory. If it be so, it seems to me that IP, ferney old and torpootod treatises" the great subject of man's free will require to be re written. They, I believe, assume that the Deity himself could not devise a means to leave man free to do well without also leaving him the liberty to do ill. TRE ITALIAN QUESTION. M.
