THE FOREION LEGION. • IMOS TIM MISRMITOTIDIKt or TIM Tr HBLIOOLAND, MAT 6. Our little Wend is thrown into a state of the gesetat excitement by the arrival of a batch of up AOSTA. who are come to make the neseesary arrangement* for the reception ot the Foreign Legion, sod, as is geuerally supposed, fur a be 4 of Zeglish and French regular troops. Besides imee ot the Engineer., who are charged with the emotion of the iriodeu huts--similar to those sent out to the Crimea --there are quartermaster., paymasters, and officers of the medical and commissariat departments, for the of forming a dep4t of provisions and *stab = hospitals. From the circumstance of there biing amongst the arrivals a French commissariat odor, it is shrewdly suspected that we shall have a visit horn a military party of our gallant allies, but Y et nothing for certain has transpired on that t. - 1 siverday the officers accompanied our worthy Liestensat-Governor, Captain Sir John Hindnian.h, (ore of the few remaining heroes ot Aboukir and Trafalgar), in an inspection of the public budd ies., which have all been appropriated for the dif ferent departments. Amongst others the large and extensive range of buildings on the beach, belonging to the Bathing Company, and used for housing their bathing machines during the winter months, have been 'elected for the stores of the commissariat de pantei nt, end the newly•ereeted handsome school- Ludt partly by government and partly by pri vate subscriptions, is destined to serve as a hospital, while the school will be held in the church. From the exteneive nature of the arrangements making, it is expected that we shall have a garrison of at least 19,000 men. Although the presence of a large body of troops is generally hailed with gratitude by the inhabitants ot small colonies, and considered in the light of a god send Iran the profits they make and the money pat le circulation by the officers and men, yet in this iri ses°s the effect produced on the Heligolandere is diametrically opposite. Within the last 10 or 12 pars, owing to the exertions of some of the principal Inhabitants, the island has become a fashioaati!e snow bathing-place for the north of Oermany. and is coosetpience of its easy access from Hamburg, Bremen, mud Tooniog—from which three it lies stni-disant, and can be reached from either of them is six boure—competes successfully with Norderney, Wangernog, and Wyck. Last slimmer the numbeilot bathing visitors that came to Heligoland amounted te 2,00ih sad as they all come to speed motley, the Wendel. make a handsome living from them during the three months of the bathing season, sufficient to sapper them in affluence the whole of the year. It is, Obviator?, with honor and consternation that they new look forward to the arrival of a large body of I/Opp, ..hieh. will not fail to alter completely the serial pn3siogoomy of the island, and, as they tear, to deter visitors from coming to Heligoland this summer. and drive them to other rival Mailer Thu This meet diminutive of all her Majesty's passe. elms derives its only value from its geographical pm& ties, commanding as it does the entrance to ihe Bibs, Weser, and Eyder, bet therefore assumes a degree el impci lanes in time of war.

At the same time the intelligence of it was teo graphed to Rome by our spirited and enter prising countrylean, Mr. Close. People are there to', crowding to Naples, and adding to the curious and anxious multitude@ who throng the streets at sight, or speed away to the mountain. When I last wrote I had sot been up. The next night I started is a cal romans, forming one of a continued line of carriages from Na los to the summitof the mountain. Having purcha led our torches at Regina, we turned cot of toe high road into the comparatively narrow and heavy rotate which begins the ascent. It I. formed of loose volcanic dust and pulverised lava; and herd work it is indeed for the weary horses to get sloop. Ours acted most prudently, by refusing to advance, so that, dismounting,we took to our legs. A woman might have gone up sloes, so dense were the crowds either coming or going ; for be it known . that, apart from curiosity, many felt nut a little relief at the eruption, as though it had saved them from the disasters dui earthquake, sad were full therefore of joyous. mess. As we got close under the mountain we expo viewed something like disappointment, for the eleva tion on which the Hermitage stands hid from oar view the firs and smoke, and the streams of lava, which even from Naples formed so magnificent a spec tacle.
