He "faithfully, honestly, aik trik" S ies\ e fest a represented. to Parliament the effect produced, within his own observation, by certain opera tions conducted at the last general election, and he - now intimates in unmistakeable terms that the forthcoming contest is likely to supp l y arguments of a kind stronger than ever in favour of similar conclusions. 'lie impresses upon his supporters that " There must be constant watch ing ; everything suspicious must be noted, and everybody should copy d4w4 e yid we e that may be required respecting it. rimve the firmest impres sion that at this election—l do not speak of Carlisle especially —money will be profusely spent to an extent that has not been known for a long time." If this is the case, and if the result of such proceed ings is an unavoidable conversion to the ballot, it requires so long train of argument to show that the reasoning so influential with Sir James's sup porters may some fine morning act irresistably upon himself. At present he rather thinks that if the suffrage is extended with sufficient liberality the very numbers of the working men may secure them against evil influences, though the security is certainly seen to fail in their own trades' unions. However, there is one borough, at any rate, where there will be a contest of the genuine old stamp. All the features of the occasion are already discer nible ; " roughs," at 4s, a day ; gentlemen in black wigs and spectacles ; Blues and Yellows game to the backbone ; strong personalities, with universal undertakings to avoid them ; squibs, placards, poetry, open-air meetings, effective harangues, and, finally, a candidate very entirely competent to sus tain the principal part in the scene. If good fighting is to win the day Sir James ought to bring in his nephew for Carlisle.—limes. e ... ~.::, . - . ,---_, A ,„ ~,, . r.,......._. : , it( . 4 Irliki / ~...0, ' - - ._ ... ::...

Translated from MCC erman of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhoea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter." — Dublin Medical Press.

Ist B.N.Z. AND ITS IGNERS. On the Ist of July, 1857, the authority of the English Government in the Bengal Presidency was flickering in the socket, and seemed just about to expire. On the morning of that day 173 Englishmen and Eurasian Christians, hay ing under their protection 200 women and children, were shut up in the Fort of Sanger, 200 miles diStant from Euro pean succour. At three miles distant were 1,566 sepoys of the 31st and 42d Regiments, and 403 native troopers of the 3d Irregular Cavalry. What must have been the feelings of that scanty English garrison in the Saugor Fort, when, after various threatening symptoms, the 42d Regiment of Bengal Light Infantry, and 100 men of the 3 d Irregular Cavalry, broke out into open mutiny. In that isolated station, so far removed from, aid, and surrounded by a hostile population, what chance of escape was. discoverable 1 True, they had been warned of their danger by the other sepoy regiment—the 31st. But of these, 46 men had mutinied some days previous, and little could it be hoped that the rest would not follow their example. The 31st had, indeed, invited their officers to take up their quarters in a body at the mess-room, that they might be safe from the first fury of the coming revolt ; but this might well be suspected to be a mere ruse, and the first shots must have sounded like the death knell of the Europeans. Their brave hearts, we are sure, did not quail for themselves, but their cheeks may well have been blanched when they looked upon that hapless and helpless throng of women and children, who were gathered around them. It is difficult to realise to one's mind the, to all appearance, desperate and hopeless state of the scanty European garrison of Saugor when the mutiny broke out. Wo have sketched a few of the circumstances ; but only those who were imprisoned there can truly appreciate the wretchedness of men who, with wives and children, were encircled by: such an ocean of revolt. In some respects, even the miseries of Lucknow seem less than those of Sanger, for on the fate of Lawrence and his companions myriads of loving eyes were riveted, and for them myriads of voices were raised in prayer, while the beleaguered band Saugor, like dead men out of mind, were unmentioned, and seemed already wiped out of remembrance. It is, then, for the gallant officer to say what must have been the grate ful feelings of the pent-up garrison when the furious shouts of the mutinous 42d were answered by the steady tramp of the 31st advancing to drive them from the station. Not a European officer was with the faithful corps. Alone they advanced, and in a short but sharp struggle drove off the mutineers in headlong confu sion. Then it was that, having given an additional proof of their loyalty, they received again their European officers, and under them, for seven long months, through all priva tions and all dangers, maintained the fort of Saugor against surrounding thousands of rebels. Two companies of the 42d were absent on detachment at Dumoh on the memorable day of the outbreak. They chose to follow the better example of the 31st, and separated themselves from their mutinous bre thren. Thus for seven long months Saugor was held with incalculable benefit to the English cause in Central India. Surely services of this order are not to be forgotten or slurred over. Yet in this country, except in the co lumns of this paper, where has the name of the 31st Regi • ment ever been mentioned ? So little has the loyalty of that corps been known or spoken of, that at a public dinner in this city the 21st Bengal Native Infantry was said to be the only corps of the Bengal army that had continued faithful, and that at a time when a body of the 31st had just escorted, through a country teeming with rebels, a convoy of provi sions safely into H. Rose's camp. And now to forgetful ness and ingratitude is added calumny, and the 31st are publicly included among the mutineers. We do hope that this foul wrong will be repaired, and that instead of obloq u y drove this noble 'c or p s will receive from every Englishman the praises it d eserves . S ure l y i n th e P a rliamentary returns, o instead of the cold w or d s , " did not manifest a dispositio n to mutiny," there should be written opposite the register of the 31st, " l o y a l un d er t h e most try i ng c i rcu mstances, ex p wretches u tin e thaters of were the 4 trying 2d fio to m corrupt Saugor, its h fidelity , held that st lled a u f t ew the ma station for seven months against a vast rebel host, and have been made a light infantry corps in acknowledgment of their services." ir omeward Mail.

We alluded in our impression of yesterday, hopes of preserving the peace of Europe are not altogether annihilated. We understand that when the Austrian ultimatum left Vienna, intelli gence of the adhesion of Sardinia to the general disarmament had not reached that capital. This fact is, of course, important. An opportunity is afforded to the Austrian Government to pause ere they place themselves in an indefensible position. When once the die is cast and a Contest provoked, none dare speculate on the issue. That Power which has hitherto commanded respect by taking her stand upon existing treaties, and acting purely on the defensive, will have precipitated if she has not actually caused the strife. At the moment when the prospect was growing brighter and a reasonable hope of a pacific solution of the contro versy was again entertained, she will have drawn the sword and have broken off the negotiations. There can be no misconception as to the results that must follow if Austria persists in assailing Sardinia in the manner indicated by the terms of the ultimatum forwarded on Tuesday last to the commander of her Italian army. It will be ac cepted at once as a declaration of war. Orders have been given by the French Government for the immediate embarkation at Toulon of 30,000 men. These troops are not, however, to sail until further orders. The divisions at Lyons, Grenoble, Besangon, &e., have also received- orders to be ready to march pi a minute's notice, though they will not move until further instructions are given. The total amount of the French force destined to co-operate im mediately with Saidinia, in the event of war, is estimated at 80,000 men. It will be in two divi sions—the one commanded by Marshal Canrobert, the other, by Marshal Baraguay d'Hilliers, the whole being under the command of the Emperor in person. Thus the chief actors in the drama that has kept Europe in suspense during the last four months have at length themselves removed the veil under which they endeavoured to conceal their real intentions, and now disclose to Europe and to the world their Objects and aims in the demon strations, intrigues, and preparations that have caused so much alarm. _ _ From what we have stated it is therefore evident that Austria may yet avert from Italy and Europe the horrors of a sanguinary contest. The French Government, in making final preparations and ordering the embarkation of troops, seems willi ng to pause until definite intelligence respecting the Austrian ultimatum, the reply . of Sardinia, and the immediate results, can be obtained. Wh e th er th e Austrian Government will consider the adhesion of Sardinia to the disarmament sufficient, and there fore countermand the order forwarded to their com mander in chief on Tuesday last, or whether they will persist in driving matters to extremities, it is impossible for us to decide. One fact is certain, they have a glorious opportunity of retrieving an error, and of proving the sincerity of their devotion to the maintenance of tranquillity and to the best interests of civilisation. The crisis is certainly grave, and in a few hours the question of peace or war must be determined. Doubtless that Power to whose obsti nacy or rashness the outbreak can be clearly attri buted will not only incur a fearful responsibility, but will also excite the indignation of the public in every civilised state. We believe that the proposals made by England, and which were at once accept e d by France, Russia, and Prussia, afforded a basis for a fair settlenient of the difficulty ; and we deeply deplore the conduct of the Austrian Government in refusing to accept the same. Probably the adhe sion of Sardinia to the principle of a general dis armament may induce the Austrian diplomatists to regard the proposition in a different light, but it would be impossible to deny that by the eagerness with which they had pressed forward this ultima tum a severe shock has been give)/ to public confi dence. People expected different things from a Power whose position has long been critical, and who at the close of the struggle in the Crimea was literally and truly without a friend in Europe. Their conduct on the present occasion contrasts, moreover, strangely with the course which they felt it their duty to adopt during that eventful conflict. Throughout these painful and protracted negotia tions the whole weight, authority, and influence of the English Government have been thrown in the scale of peace. They have not been unmindful of the various evils and grievances under which the Italians suffer, but they felt that the substitution of the yoke of one foreign state for that of another was not the remedy required. Italy has been too long the battle-field of contending Powers. She Ms ever been the victim of intrusive interference. Since the fall of the Roman Empire her fairest cities and her richest territory have been in the possession of the stranger. France, Germany, and Spain have always coveted, and at certain periods possessed, dominion in this unhappy land. To induce both Austria and France to withdraw from certain por tions of Italy; to- teach the Italians to trust to themselVes ; and, while they discountenanced the dangerous efforts of revolutionary cliques, to foster that native love of liberty which alone is precious, was a policy that promised happier results. What measure of success such a policy, if carried out to its legitimate end, might command, we may yet learn, if the Austrian Government are sagacious enough to endeavour to retrieve a false step. Their ultimatum 'would only have the effect of driving matters to extremities when all the parties in the quarrel have expressed their readiness to trust to diplomacy rather than to force for a settlement of their differences. The sincerity of these professions would, if the English proposals were adopted and acted upon, be speedily put to the test, and we hope, that at the last moment the Austrian Go vernment may act with moderation, and not incur the terrible responsibility of having broken off negotiation and plunged Europe into war. (From the Times.) Good Friday of 1859 will be hereafter the epoch of departure whence veterans, now only youthful conscripts, shall commence the story of the great Austrian War. Just as we look back upon the blood-spilling contest of principles and passions which divided Europe in the last ten years of the last century ; just as we note the par ticular points of difference which grew and widened and smouldered and flamed till the world was wrapped in the roaring fires, and the vision of all men was darkened by the smoke—so, as there is too much reason to fear, will the men of the suc ceeding age scan those acts of State which, winged by a swifter agency than our fathers knew, are passing momentarily before our eyes, and deduce how rapidly arose the great unnecessary war which lasted—what prophet shall dare to say how long ? The solemnities of the Holy Week are neglected for the hurrying away of armed men 'to meet others upon an appointed spot for slaughter. The festivities of Easter will possibly be checked by the cries of men in conflict, and by the sorrows that wait upon victory as well as upon defeat. In our secure and secluded island we listen only to the echoes of instant preparation that are now passing like the Fiery Cross through the other countries of Europe. " The French army is in full march to the frontiers of Piedmont." General Della Marmora telegraphs from the banks of the Ticino that the Austrian army has made a significant movement on the strategical line of the Ticino, and that an attack at any moment may be apprehended. The Court of Vienna, so late as yesterday, reiterates its declaration that all other proposals must be subordinate to the summons already addressed to Sardinia. The Imperial manifesto which is to accompany the declaration of war against Sardinia has already been prepared. Austria, mistress of the position, is ready by act of State and deed of war to initiate the sanguinary drama upon which the curtain is about to rise. How completely a few days have changed the positions of the parties to this mighty difference ! So late as Monday last, when Lord Derby from his place in the House of Lords directed such bitter remonstrance against the Emperor of the French, it was believed that it was France who was pois ing the thunderbolt, and that it was from her only that we had oc cas ion to fear l es t th e soun d s h ou ld come and the fire should fall. But now, within the last 48 hours, Austria has occupied the eyes of Europe, striding forth as the aggressor and the challenger, occupying the arena marked by tacit consent as the spot of conflict. Austria, whether in prudence, or in ambition, or in obduracy, has shown herself more ready for the fray even than the Power which was the origin of the quarrel. France seems to have been taken by surprise. Whether it was that the Emperor believed that all he desired would be obtained from Austria's fears, or whether he trusted: to his own fertility in peace ful assurances and to the agency of the Moniteur to delay the conflict to a more convenient season ; or whether he has calculated ill, or has been negligently served, it is impossible now to say ; but certain it is that Austria has the start, and France is strain ing to overtake her. - While Austria is manoeuvring on the Ticino, France is still only sending troops to Dauphiny. While Aust r i a i s present to f o l low up her decisive menace by an irresistible -attack, France is only collecting her defensive levies at a distance from the position of her jeopardised ally. Austria is, as we have said, at this moment mistress of the position. She has an army on the Ticino before which, if put in motion, the forces of Sardinia must melt away into the fortresses of Alessandria and Genoa, or must be hopelessly scattered. Miracles do happen undoubtedly now and then ; 40,000 men have beaten 200,000 men ; but sane men do not reckon on the repetition of such incidents in the 19th century, and between regularly disciplined European troops. It would be fanatical to suggest that Sardinia can hold her own for a week against the hosts about to be let loose upon her. The flood of spoilers will sweep over the land. Turin must be occupied, although probably not held. The power.of the Piedmontese monarchy will be . shut up in the few fastnesses which Sardinia contains, - and the real struggle will not begin until Austria has struck a blow which will be heard throughout Italy. As_ a belligerent Power she is wise in her generation but she is not wise in her - generation if she is seeking unnecessarily to become a. belligerent Power. If she believed that there was no hope of permanent peace, that the French Emperor was resolved upon war, and that she .Was 'only being kept fainting under the weight of her arms, waiting .till it should suit the conve nience of the French Emperor to overwhelm her ; if she, moreover, is 'willing at this moment, when her promptitude has given her the choice of an offensive policy, to make those reasonable retracta tions which the interests of humanity and the pub lic opinion .of Europe require of . her=then it will be difficult to say that she is entirely wrong in having, sought to precipitate a crisis in which she was bleeding to death; But if this is a first for ward step in - an aggressive and a defiant policy—. if Austria seeks to enter Sardinia as the armed apostle of absolutism and of Ultramontane priest craft ; if she has taken up her old world mission of binding the bodies and coercing the minds and consciences of all human beings born in Italy, then the fact of her having been the first to commence this war will be no unimportant item in the great indictment which will be pressed against her. But, whatever may be her ultimate intentions, she has by her precipitancy done the Emperor of the French this great good—Whereas, three days ago, all Europe looked upon him as an Imperial robber, seeking occasion to let loose his prepared armies upon a peace-loving neighbour, the world will see in this sudden start and in the hasty and unready preparations of Napoleon 111. some evidence that after all his menaces he had not intended to pro yoke the combat which Austria has now com menced. The great question for us to consider, however, is not how Austria stands, or at what pace France hastens, or even how soon Sardinia can be overrun, but what is the position and policy of England. Lord Derby has said that, "If war breaks out, whatever be the consequence, our neutrality, as long as it may last, must, to a certain extent, be an armed neutrality, enabling us to take our part on that side, whatever it might be, which the hon our, the interests, and the dignity of the country may indicate as best deserving our support.' These words, coupled with others bearing upon the occu pation of the shores of the Adriatic, tended to a scarcely ambiguous intimation that if the events of the impending war should lead French troops into the Lombardo-Venetian Kingdom England would appear as a combatant in the melee. We ventured to comment upon those words in a tone of remon strance. Now that the event appears more pro bable, and its - preceding circumstances almost certain, we think it right to reiterate our protest against engaging England either by alliance, or menace, or guarantee, so as to draw her into this purely Continental quarrel. Sorely we are not going to commit over again the faults committed by our fathers, and to burden ourselves with debts and obligations too great for ourselves or our sons to bear in the pursuit of some chimerical notions as to what we should like to see occur among our neighbours. We say, at all risks and at all events, keep England out of this struggle between two dynastic Powers. What have we, a free constitu tional people, to do with a struggle between two despots, one of whom represents the principles of absolute power and priestly dominion, and the other the despotism delegated by pure democracy P If it must he so, let them fight ; no English states man can suppose that by weakening- each other they can become more dangerous to us. (From the .Daily News.) " I have not been defeated by the Coalition but by Liberal ideas," said Napoleon, as in 1814 he succumbed to the might of the people of Europe, whom their Sovereigns had called to arms in the name of liberty- and - with promises of constitutions. Once more in the history of this century the great battle of modern civilisation, the contest between public opinion and material force, is about to be renewed on the grandest scale. With nothing to rely on but her armies, not daring to meet her neigh bours at the council board, Austria has madly but wilfully defied the moral power of Europe. After having represented singly of late years the abhorred principles of the Holy Alliance, she now, spurning the advice and over-riding the remonstrances of States greater and more powerful than herself, pro ceeds to carry them into a bloody execution. The intelligence that Austria had sent an ultima tum to Sardinia was no sooner received in this capital, on Thursday, than it led to the meeting of a Cabinet Council, and on the same evening the sur prise and disapproval of the English Government was made known to Count Buol. The reply of the Austrian Emperor was not delayed. We believe we are fully entitled to describe it as a point blank refusal to reconsider the responsibility incurred in commencing war in the heart of Europe. Count Buol, with formal professions of respect, neverthe less declares that his master having taken his course will pursue it to the end. Thus impiously six years ago an Emperor and a soldier, to whom Francis Joseph was but as the mushroom to 'the oak, set at nought the earnest pleadings of disinterested friend ship, plunged four nations in war, but died miserably a few months afterwards, broken-hearted at the frustration of his plans. 'So may all perish who build schemes for their own aggrandisement on the ruins of the peace or liberty of their fellow men. The consequences of the Austrian declaration aro rapidly unfolding themselves. It is not easy, and it will every day become more difficult, to obtain accurate detailed information of the movements of the French troops massed at the foot of the Alps. The itioniteur, yesterday, mentioned for the first time the existence of such troops, but did so in a manner which would be unmeaning and morally injurious to the French Government, unless it were intended to employ them to prevent the execution of the announced designs of Austria. A later tele gram from Paris informs us, as from an official source, that a general movement of the French forces has taken place on the entire Piedmontese frontier. If the aid of the Emperor of the French has been invoked by Sardinia, nothing hinders him from pouring in troops into Piedmont over the Alpine passes or by Genoa. Perhaps while we write the squadrons and battalions are moving solemnly , amidst the grandest scenery in nature, in the brightness of this starry night. If there is, indeed, no chance of preserving peace, if without their aid the little Sardinian army is, as we are told, to be " crushed," and with it the head and heart of Italy, then we cannot bring ourselves to share the sentiments of some among us who hope that Louis Napoleon will not make a hasty rush to take up the glove which has been so rashly thrown down. It is a question of hours, and the powerful ally of Sardinia cannot advance too rapidly. We perceive it has been calculated that the Aus trian General, by a rapid march, which, with the enormous forces at his disposal, would virtually be unresisted, might reach Turin on the third day after crossing the Ticino, and there dictate the conditions on which the kingdom of Sardinia could be per mitted to exist. We believe that this calculation involves several errors. Unprotected as Turin is by any places of military strength, it is not likely that the Piedmontese Government will make the independence of the kingdom dependent on the safety of the capital. The Piedmontese are well aware that great sacrifices may be demanded of them, and are prepared to meet them with fortitude. Should the removal of the seat of Government to Genoa appear desirable for military reasons, it could be effected instantly, and then the Austrians would have nothing to gain by advancing on Turin. We hear much of the technical skill of the Austrian staff; but, on the other hand, it may be assumed that the Piedmontese General knows something of the art of war, and ho will doubtless employ every resource to gain time and save his troops until the French reserves can come up. We do not at all expect that his forces will be crushed before aid can arrive. It is, indeed, far from certain that the Austrian General would precipitate himself eagerly upon Turin. He knows that he will have to reckon with a great Power has ing,full command of the Mediterranean, and able at a few hours' notice to embark a large army at Toulon, and throw it into Genoa, whence it might advanc e upon his line of communication •, or should the Duchies declare for Austria, into the port of Spezzia, within four days' march of Piacenza. Should the Pied montese fall back in the direction of the Apennines, they would have the advantage of operating in a country peculiarly 'capable of defence, and also that of hastening their junction with French supports arriving by the coast. While awaiting the result of these opposite movements one reflection forces itself upon the mind with peculiar force. It is the inscrutable nature of the principles of our foreign policy. Here is a small power, Sardinia, which for ten years has placed herself by our side with a confidence and affection which at times have been touching, con fronted in arms by a deadly foe of three times her strength. We are sorry for her, very sorry; but we cannot help her. lire should regret to see her independence gone, her ChaniberS closed, her free 'press pet under censorship, still we cannot inter fere. _ We find comfort, however, in the thought that we are sacrificing our feelings to a high principle of duty and when all at once some warm expression let fall by a too-eloquent Minister, or the stray sentence of an inspired journalist, recalls us to the fact that in reality we are hastening into this very war, and taking up a position of active hostility to the very State which we profess or desire to defend. We protest once more, in the name of our countrymen, that, as we do not fight for Sardinia and freedom now, we will not be betrayed into fighting for absolutism in Lombardy and Venice six months hence. If Austria had not lost her treaty rights in those comitriekby the flagrant violations of public law which we ex posed yesterdas, she has at all events committed them now to the chances of war. By those chances she must abide. If the Italians, aided by France, can expel the Austrians from •the country, by all means let them do so. We profess to . -be neutral— we must be honestly neutral. This is a matter which electors should look to next week, and men tion to the members they send to Parliament. SIR JAMES GRAHAM AT CARLISLE. (From the Times.) For anybody who can take an interest, at a mo ment like the present, in a piece of real English life at election time, we can confidently recommend the appearance of Sir James Graham at Carlisle as a picture not likely to be surpassed. We have had nothing half as good through all the proceedings of the national can vass . N o t a wee k ago e told the public that the true principles of antagonism in a British borough amounted simply to Blue against Yellow, and at Carlisle the fact comes out with marvellous distinctness. Sir James goes down to address his old constituents, and talks to them for a good hour together, but as to the peace of Europe, or the policy of Governments, those are not the topics for the Cumbrian market-p face. It is all town and county. but especially town—the doings of the Blues and the misdoings of the Yellows, with as many squibs and jokes, and strokes and stratagems as would have been brought up a hundred years ago. The scene is positively refreshing, and takes us back to the days of Hogarth and Lord Bute. Sir James decided to throw off with an appeal to his own long-established and unchangeable character—rather a bold position to occupy, but one which he defended nevertheless with considerable success. At any rate, he was Sir James Graham and a candidate, and a candidate for Carlisle, and much the same shifty sort of man that he had been three-and-thirty years ago. So here was a species o political identity admitting of actual verification, and that went for a good deal. He had addressed that very constituency on that very spot (as the " scene reminded" him) in the year 1826, and some body fortunately remembered that he had done so " on the top of a carriage," a touch of circumstance which was instantly improved. "Ah ! on the top of a carriage ! I was afraid that another generation had come which knew not Joseph, and that you had forgotten That day, but I am glad to find a• friend as old as myself who remembers it." Sir James quite warmed up the thought ; he was " revived" and "encouraged," till at length he went in boldly for something like consistency altogether. " I was then the advocate of the people and of popular rights, and lam so now. I was then a Reformer, and I am so now. I then fought under the blue flag; I fight under the blue fla. , still. (Great cheering.)" 'Phis was an intrepid aroke, for some naughty people at Carlisle had that very week been describing him as a weatherook, and saying that the place for him was not the top of the poll, but the top of the C ithedral. They had even gone further. They had fished up one of his old circulars, and " Since I came here," said Sir James, " while I was at dinner, an old address of mine, two-and twenty years old, has been published from the printing-shop of the yellow party upon blue paper !" In this document he epgeared in black and white, or rather in black and blue, as a regular Protectionist, and decidedly " op posed to the extension of the existing suffrage." Confronted with himself in this very inconsiderate fashion, what was Sir James Graham to say ? Nothing but what he did say,—viz., that he had been in error, and made very grave mistakes, as he now fully admitted. After all, if he was the same man now that he had been in 1826, that was pretty well enough for anybody. Why pursue him through all the vicissitudes of the thirty years' interval ? " Talk of inconsistency ! Let any man pass through a public life as long as mine and not change some of his opinions, and I say that he may plead consistency, but i t is at the expense of his judgment and his sense. You are right, Sir James. When all things are changing, a politician must either change too or be left be hind. The present. expression of the great Blue and Yellow conflict at Carlisle is found in the dispute about a third candidate, and not so much in this candidate's opinions as in his connexions and pedigree. The gentleman is a nephew of Sir James Graham, and a grandson of Mr. Wybergh. To this alliance the Yellows stoutly object. They ask if Carlisle is to become " an appanage of Netherby," and they have reprinted some an cient poetry disparaging to the late Mr.,Wybergh's memory. So Sir James is compelled to take up this topic in right earnest, as a point on which the electors of Carlisle feel very deeply. " Now, who was Mr. Wybergh P Mr. Wybergh was one of the oldest members of the Blue party. He was the intimate friend of Jockey of Norfolk, one of the founders of the Blue party, but he was no sub servient follower of that great man. . . He was the most hospitable man, the most convivial com panion, the most agreeable of men. He knew a joke, he loved a joke, and he was not the worse of that ; and if my nephew is a chip off the old block (laying , his hand on Mr. Lawson's shoulder) his connexion with Mr. Wybergh will never disgrace him, nor incapacitate him from representing Car lisle." This defence was received with great popu lar applause ; the arguments told, and things looked well for uncle and nephew. Sir James does not retain his old following quite absolutely, it is true, for the very gentleman who . proposed him in 1852 has now opened a poetical miscellany under the title of the " Election Muse," in which the prevailing tone of the stanzas is not complimentary to the baronet or his claims; but, for all this, he is confident, and is on the point of " telling the Yellow candidate" so, when he recollects that boasting is absurd, " espe cially at elections." Even bribery and intimidation assume at Carlisle the tints of those famous colours which pervade the atmosphere of the borough. Sir James refers to a particular species of compulsion which, in his opinion, is the hardest and most cruel of all--the screw which a banker can put upon a customer keeping a cash credit with him. " And this I say," continued he; " if there be any Yellow bankers who put this pressure on you, frankly avow it, and try what a Blue banker will do for you." Of course, it would never do to insinuate that the actual con stituency of Carlisle was amenable to unlawful appeals ; this Sir James cannot think of, but i;a e general way he gives ominous warning. coming elections, he says, are to be carried , and by money. The Carlton Club money is abundant, do the non-electors, in Sir James's op inion, betfer than preserve their brethren from cannot attack. office It would be an excellent forme ~ of becoming electors themseives. loonokthoeuvterfgoer gentlemen in green spectacle s and After the nomination, if there are watchtran trans actions, anydasiu•kspiwciioguss. t p h e e rs m o , n f s ol o lo f w th th at eni ki , nfidn,dletthetinheountr see their-electors actions, and if there be law in En g land, or in Parlia ment, we will bring the transgressors to account." If Carlisle is disturbed b y an y of the se ugly prac titioners, it will not be for want of caution. It was only when Sir James had retired from the Market -place to the Assembly-room that he ventured in the comparative seclusion of his sup porters with his practical impressions respecting the affairs of the country. From these communica tions we learn that he still entertains a conscientious objection. to the ballot, but in deference to the opinion of his adherents he has not only omitted to The will of the Duchess of Orleans was only proved in London on the 10th of March. Her Royal High ness. Helen. 'of Meeklenbusg-Sthwerin, Duchess d'Orleans, who died on the 18th of May, 1858, at Richmond, was the relict of his .Royal Highness Ferdinand Philippe Louis Charles henry, Duke d'Orleans. She had executed her will on the Ist of .1 - s,nuary, 1855, expressive of the greatest concern and interest for her two sons, the Count de Paris and Duke de Chartres, to whom she has bequeathed the whole of her property, leaving all letters and correspondence to the Count de Paris, and specify ing many articles, souvenirs, and treasures which each was to have, some of which had been in use by King Louis Philippe and his Queen. There are annuities and pensions mentioned in the will which are to be kept up for the lives of persons to whom the Duchess was attached, and to some of her at tents. The sole executor named in the will, M. Valentin Ettiene Tremyn, died in the lifetime of the Duchess, and letters of administration, with the will annexed, were granted in London to her Majesty Maria Amelia, Princess of the Two Sicilies, the relict of his Majesty Louis Philippe, the Duchess having in her will requested of the Queen to act as guardian to the two Princes.

Hope, Esq., her two sons-in-law. The per sonalty in the United Kingdom 'was sworn under £3o,ooo—there being £lB,OOO in England and £12,000 in Scotland liable to probate duty.—lllus i trated London News. SHEFFIELD AND HALlFAX.—Sheffield also WaS noted for its whittles even in the time ofrhaucer, as it now gives steel to all the world—the blade to the Briton for his beef, and the savage for his "long-pig's—to the Red Indian for scalping a foe, and the civilised American for "solving a difficulty"—to the brigand for cutting a throat, the sailor his tobacco, the priest his sacramental bread. One great branch of Sheffield's industry in these days consists in the manufacture of that mysterious article of feminine apparel which is used to give the female form its full develope ment, and endow it with the essential bulginess. Sheffield thrives on the new fashion, which almost makes up for it in the decline of the tomahawk business consequent on the evangelisation of Polynesia. Halifax is another of the old industrial towns, now hardly able to hold its own a„..mainst its younger rivals. It is noted as the largest parish in England, and otherwise by its name of terrorto thieves. " From Hell, Hull, and Halifax good Lord deliver us I" was a part of the ancient thieves' litany, the last being dreaded the most for its bloody law, by which felony taken within the liberty, either " hand-habened, back-berand, or confessand." as to any commodity of the value of thirteen pence halfpenny were Jiable to be beheaded within three days by a species of guillotine. Not the least important of the manufacturing towns is Batley, the chief seat of that great latter-day staple of England—shoddy. This is the famous rag capital, the tatter metropolis, where every beg gar in Europe sends his cast-off clothes to be made into sham broadcloth for cheap gentility. Of moth-eaten coats, frowsy jackets, reeeky linen, effusive cotton, and o ld worsted stock ings this is the last destination. Reduced to filament and a greasy pulp by mighty-toothed cylinders, the much-vexed fabrics re-enter life in the most brilliant forms—from solid pilot cloth to silky mohair and glossiest tweed. Thus the tail coat rejected by the Irish peasant, the gaberdine too foul for the Polish beggar, are turned again to shining uses, re-appearing, it may be, in the lustrous paletot of the sport ing dandy, the delicate riding habit of the Belgravian belle, or the sad-sleek garment of her confessor.— Westminster Review.
