This wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most shattered constitution, whether arising from self-pollution, excesses, nocturnal emissions, the effects of climate, or natu ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate case is four weeks ; and, if used according to the printed in structions (which are very simple), failure is impossible. This We-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to marry, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made. Success in every case is as certain as that water quenches thirst. _ . _ Dr. Thoord s Essence of Life is sold in cases, with full in structions for use, at lls., or four quantities in one for 335., and will be sent to any part of the world, carefully packed, on receipt of remittance or post-office order payable to Prout and ( 0., PatentlffedieineWarehouse, 229, Strand London.

OOY A L FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road, U in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail way Terminus, at Ring's -Cross. Patron—The QUEEN. President—The Duke of BUe CLEUCH, K.G. Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq. This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free and instant adinission to the destitute sick, without the for mality of obvernors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of these the most wretched of our fellow-Creatures. Moreover, it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more, on the average, than 3,0(.0 out-patients a week. _ _ The Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued support, to eii able them to dmit and relieve the distressing cases that daily present themselves. Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward Mas erman, Esq. Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and Co.; Drummond' and Co. ; Herries and Co. ; Ransom and Co. ; Prescott, Grote, and Co.; Smith, Payne, and Co. ; Glyn and Co. ; Jones Loyd and Co. ; Barclay and Co. ; Denison and Co. ; W Manus, Deacon, and Co. ; Overend, Gurney, and Co. ; Nisbet and Co. ; Messrs.

It has also granted re wards a mounting to £572 for saving 562 shipwrecked persons, by shore-boats and other means, mak ing a total of 1,302 persons saved from a watery grave during the last two years and a half. The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the Society ' , lid other means, since its formation, is 12,690 ,• for which services 82 Gold Medals, 713 Silver Medals, and £16,0( 0 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu tion has also expended £64,300 on Life-boats, Life-boat Transporting-earl !ages, and Boat-houses. The public cannot but sympathise with the vigorous efforts now being made by this Institution to save the lives of Ship wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at the present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions the Society has made within the past few years, it has now One Hundred and Twenty-three Life-boats under its man agement, for the maintenance of which, in a state of thorough efficiency, a large perma nent annual income is absolutely needed, if its humane mission is to be perpetuated.

Dr. SMITH will, for the BENEFIT of persons suffering from NERVOUS DEBILITY, &c., on receiving a description of -their case (enclosing a stamped directed envelope for re ply), send his written opinion, with advice and directions for the most successful treatment and cure.—Address, Dr Smith, 8, Burton-crescent, London, W.C. There was Egina on the left and Salamis right in front, and by degrees Mount Hvmettus, the Acro polis, the Royal Palace, and the town, one by one unfolded themselves, till at last, after another turn of the wheel, a forest of masts revealed the port of Piraeus. All eyes were eagerly turned in that direction, for mt‘ity were the masts, nd so majestic as to leave no doubt of their belonging to large men of-war. A three decker, with the red ensign on the foremast, is the Marlborough, with Admiral Martin on board; close by, a two decker, you can see from the figure-head it is the Queen. To the left a large corvette, the Pelican ; beyond, a large French frigate, the Zenobie, with the ensign of a rear-admiral; further on, another French man of war, and then an Austrian, and among them all the Greek steam frigate Amelia, in which the King had started on his last cruise about Greece, and round her a number of smaller vessels—corvettes, sloops, and gunboats. The sung harbour can scarcely hold them all. But beyond this large display of naval force no thing seems chanced. Tho anchor is not yet down when off come the boats of the men-of-war, Is usual, for their mails, and, mixed up with them, the host of shore boats with their crews, as usual, clamour ing, pressing, running against each other, and try ing to entice passengers by that wonderful display of polyglot eloquence which the influx of Western travellers has taught the boatmen of the Levant. They scarcely wait for the departure, much less for the return, of the dour and commissaire with the -bill of health and by ...itches. Up they rush in a motley crowd, and with them the commissionaires of the different hotels of Athens. The first lay hands on you and your luggage, vociferating, quar relling, Coaxing, the latter shove their printed cards into your face. Hotel des Etradgers, Hotel de l'Orient, Hotel de la Couronne, goes the story which you know so well by heart. It is just the same as of old, at any rate the revolution has not changed these your •tormentors, that is clear. Let us hope your rambles in the East have imparted to you true Osmanli composure and dignity, for if you get:ner vous or out of temper you are lost, and become an easy prey. But what has become of our Greek friends on board? Let us have a glance at them before leaving. Surely so many exiles and patriots belonging to so demonstrative a people cannot return to their homes without finding some friends waiting for them. If only for the sake of a contrast don't let us lose the chance of seeing some traces of the more tender human feelings on those faces which we have only seen glowing with political excitement for the last two days. Alas, the excitement of political tri umphs is egotistical, it absorbs the whole being of men haying no room for any other feeling. Those friends who might have been expected to come down are probably intoxicating themselves with politics, listening, talking, w atching for n ews , d o i ng any thing rather than thinking of friends returning, so our friends do as you or I do—make bargains with boatmen, and get their traps taken down. Losing or fallen causes are far more favourable to outbursts of affection than triumphant ones, as you lady, whom you young Greek. She nervousness s he has can has would see excitedn by y v e ryour that haveou r fair-haired interest suspected b y y theoo shown ever since the vessel arrived in port, going from side to aide, and looking eagerly at every boat which was approaching. She is still enough now, leaning overboard as far as she can, anti gazing fondly at an old gentleman and lady and two pretty girl who are down below in a boat. She never at tempts to speak, but the smile in her face and the tears in her eyes tell their tale, and so does the boat down below tell its tale—it is French, there can be no mistake ; they are a family who have taken re fuge under French colours. The boatman is getting impatient, so let us be off. You take the helm, and steer, as you used to do, to the part of the quay at the head of the harbour, " Not that way," says your boatman, " but to the Dogana."' This is new. Whatever other faults the late Government had, it was liberal enough to tra vellers. You and your luggage were free to land and go wherever you pleased; no questions were ever asked. You arrived at the Dogana, which is to the righ hand of the harbour, and the first sight which meets you is that of a number of armed civilians standing about the place. They are the improvised National Guard of the town of Piraeus, mostly young men under 20, and evidently belonging to the wealthier classes. Every one has adopted some distinctive sign, with not much regard to uniformity. Blue scarfs, red scarfs, blue muslin or red ones round their wide-awakes, red ribands or tricolour ones, white, red, and blue, in their buttonholes. They under stand their mission, for they keep off the rowdies who crowd about you and your luggage. A civil (!) d h o e u lp a s y 'nle o r u aheglpasin to you sthouotptehneymouurpt.rudas, and having looked at them with out turn i ng ou t e verything, Outside are the hackney coachmen, eager for prey, as of old, every one anxious to set forth the advan tages of his own vehicle. You choose, and off starts in a gallop your triumphant Sehu. You look about you as you pass through the town of Piraeus. There are the idlers before the coffee and wine shops as of old ; the artisans in their workshops, neither more s ot hueex lookt toll cited ll b ata t c l I tk a h n fer u oo s mu u t a tsh l k . r it Y si 1 0 0 l u f o r nt e h o we a c ht h ioe m wh an stops morentoo e town u on a c r e e rolls down at a to the tow n an d h ar b our behind, an d your carr i age rP aleys y dusty than since the rapid pace into the plain which separates Athens fr om t h e Pi raeus . I t i s rat h er m usual,for revolution ; b as buateni light rain for several months, and the watering has been ore discontinued and left the labourers are busy clearing the dust away from the roots of the young trees, and bank ing it . up all round so as to form a trough for the water, which they may hope for in less busy times. As you go along you meet with num bers of carriages on their way to the port. They are crowded with passengers and luggage, and you are told they are German followers of the ex-King, who are leaving for Trieste by the Austrian steamer. They are palace servants, domestics, chaplains, &c., and are well known to all those they meet. But not a sign of ani mosity can you see against them from any of ' those National Guards, soldiers, or others, who crowd the open omnibuses or drive by in hackney coaches. They seem scarcely to notice them. This is a good sign, for it shows that party spirit never ran very high. The triumph has been so easy and so complete that it left scarcely time for the rousing of popular passions. I had a further proof of this on the road. Seeing a little boy, evidently belonging to the better classes, running along the road towards Athens, I took him up. The coachman told me he was the son of one of the higher officers, who was known as an ardent partisan of the King's. When we ar rived at the halfway-house on the road where they water the horses, the publican asked the boy about his father, just as if n othing had passed—wheth er he had gone with the " skoufo s ," as th e King was nicknamed, or what had become of him. The boy's answers were just as natural; he told him he had escaped in an open boat. The conversation could not have been less excited if " papa" had simply gone to a watering-place. The same absence or forgetfulness of all ill-feeling struck me likewise from the very first moment of my entrance into Athens. There were the gendarmes and the cavalry s oldiers, wh o held out longest in the gu Knowing the exc i t able and demonstrative charac ter of my Athenia ns, I ex pected to find that they had made the m ost of the occasion to celebrate w ith decorations, flags , a nd flowers so auspicious an v r Naples, and Palermo, and all the rest o f Ital y durin g those first holydays of freedom,--never to be forg o tt en b y any one w h o witnessed them—W I hen men, women, and children, andset event. nl ce red for. remem bered Milan, mixed up with other passers-by, unnoticed houses, and streets, seemed all to celebrate the great feast of redemption. I looked right and left as I entered the street of Hermes, which leads straight towards the Palace, but found nothing of the kind here. All was as usual in its everyday business garb —men, women, houses and streets—the people at work everywhere, and nowhere a trace that anything rather uncommon—such, for instance, as a change of dynasty—had taken place a week ago. But at the western entrance of Athens lies a poor part of the town. I thought, let us wait till we get to the so-called "Four Reads," where t he street of Hermes is intersected by the long street which runs from the Temple of the Winds across the town into the Patissia road. This is the most crowded and central point—the connecting artery between the new town, to the north-west, and the old town, which nestles at the foot of the Acropolis. There is the cafe of the 11paca EXXar, the head-quarters of Young Greece, which even in ordinary times is the rendezvous of the crowd eager for news. Well, the crowd there was a little larger than usual, and the addition consisted of country people who were gazing at a caricature rudely drawn and posted up on the wall, representing the heroes of the late events divesting King Otho of his fustanella and the rest of his Greek finery, while the Queen, in the coiner, is wringing her hands in despair. Not much more fruitful in novelties was the rest of my drive to the hotel. The result of my search may be summed up in a number of pictures and pho tographs of Grivas—with well,gummed moustache and imperial, reminding one rather of the Emperor Napoleon—a few broken gas lamps, a large quantity of red and tricolour ribands in the button-holes of the passers-by, and posts of students doing duty as National Guards at the Bank and at the chief guardhouse. The most timid of diplomatists and the most petrified of Conservatives could scarcely be frightened by the violence of the changes, and talk of anarchy and dangers to the foundations of society ; while the believer in popular rights could not but hail this dearth as a symptom that the Greeks were determined to show to the world that they could be safely entrusted with self-govern ment even under exceptional circumstances. I sauntered out again towards evening. The crowd had considerably increased, but this is always the case in these warm climates. The only thing unusual seemed to be the large proportion of the mili tary in thecrowd. They were as quiet and orderly as the rest ; not a traca of excitement or drunkenness ; but, considering that there are little more than 1,200 or 1,500 troops of every kind in the town, they mus tered strong in the streets. The explanation of this was to be found in the circumstance that it was their last holyday. The success of the revolution being in a great measure due to their joining the people, it was difficult to tighten the bands of dis cipline at once, espcially as the infantry, above all, contains a large number of recruits. Nothing seems so hard to the young soldier as the constraint im posed upon the freedom of locomotion to which he has been accustomed, and it was to be expected that he would make the most of the opportu nity offered to him by the late events. To-day was appointed for the taking of the oath to the Provi sional Government, so that the anomalous position in which the army has found itself for the last 10 days is at end. The Provisional Government, fully aware of the danger which threatened the country if the army was left much longer in its late amphibious state; having violated its oath to the late King, and not having bound itself to any one else, chose to-day, as the first Sunday since things returned to -their normal state, to get the ceremony over, and at the same time endeavoured to give it all the solemnity which it could get up for the occasion, The place chosen was the so-called Polygon, on the right hand of the road to Patissia (the Champ de Mars of the garrison of Athens). And difficult indeed would it be to find a place in the world more impressive or superior in beauty and historical associations. Standing between the north-westerly slopes of Mount Lycabettus and the slopes of another of those isolated limestone hills which are so remarkable a feature in the plain of Attica, and with Mount Hymettus closing in the background, you are in a natural amphitheatre, from which the eye can embrace at one glance the whole plain down to the sea, and beyond it the islands of Salamis and Egina. Every inch of that ground is hallowed, and recalls some of the proudest recollections in the history of humanity. To your right towers Mount Parnes, sending down the low spur which encloses Attica on that side and sepa rates it from the plain of Eleusis. At your feet ex tend the olive groves, watered by the Cephissus, and with the sacred road of Eleusis passes through them, while beyond them you see the two harbours, the Pindus and Phalerian, the sea, Egina and Salamis, and the mountains of Megara and Cytheron. To the left the whole town unlolds itself, backed up by the Acropolis, the Areopagus, the Museion. You need only have once seen these bold and yet grace ful outlines, with that unique rosy tinge upon them which the setting sun imparts to everything in the Greek Archipelago, in order to understand why the Athenians of old had such an eye for beauty and harmony. Even all the dust and haze which filled the scene this afternoon when the ceremony took place could scarcely detract from the beauty of it. But I am afraid it was lost both upon the actors and spectators of the ceremony ; their minds were else. where. Where they were I do not think I can tell. Any one not knowing the Greeks would probably at first sight have jumped to the conclusion that they were everywhere except in the ceremony itself. The troops lining the place all round, yawning and stretching themselves, as if bored by the perfor mance ; the officers in the circle reserved for them imitating the soldiers, or else chattering and loung ing about like spectators in reserved seats, the spec tators, with few exceptions, showing little more interest than the actors themselves, looking out from their carriages at each other or at the passers-by, and if on foot strolling about listlessly, and all the while the religious ceremony going on in the open pavilion in the centre, which is used in ordinary times for the band of music on the Sunday afternoon. Yet it would have been very wrong to make hasty conclusions. The character of Eastern Christians contains a measure of excitement and indolence which does not admit of that power of concentra tion which Mussulmans exhibit in so striking a manner in all their religious ceremonies, but is not lets earnest and sincere in its belief. Look at those selfsame Christians in church. They make the pre scribed number of crosses and genuflexions on en tering, and then seem altogether to forget that they are in a place of worship until the consecration of the Host becomes the signal for more crossings. All the rest is a spectacle for them, yet try to touch any of these forms and every one of them is ready to become a martyr in their defence. In this case, too, it was not all listlessness, as could be seen when the Archbishop and President of the Synod, having consecrated the colours and put on them the red streamers, addressed the bystand ers, and admonished them to trust in God and them selves, and unite in brotherly harmony, and when, towards the end of his speech, be took off the black the veil and hood, and displayed his gray hair the hum Hi s words could a to winds, you saw every head uncovered, a only be subsided in a dead silence. heard by those close by, but the fi g ure looked that famous Archbishop Germ anos, of ratral s , who Cross in 1821, and first raised the standard of the whose picture, in the prime of in manhood, you saw front, was again displayed on the triumphaolniy by which the natural effect raising his voice, change d had pass ed since, and then ag ain when, after of the 40 years the re ligious cerem on y , the whole s y n od with cross an d crozier administered the oath old soldiers, at first some hesi tation the above all, amo ng the hand and closinglthe three tation about raulang_in to orthodox custom.

Ad- STAMPED ....50. by one after another yielded to the influence, until at the end the cheers rung forth unanimously, showing that the spell had taken effect. Anyone accustomed to the minute etiquette of military ceremonials in the west would have been shocked at the Bashi-Bi.izonk way of keeping the ground. The public circulated freely before and between the lines of troops, friends and acquaint= ances talking to each other as if the soldiers were themselves spectators—not actors. Even the pavilion where the religious ceremony took place was in vaded by a motley crowd of men, women, officers, and country people. It could scarcely be otherwise in this most democratic of countries, where even the lowest peasant cannot be made to understand difference of birth, and where " ASeXye" is the most commonly used apostrophe among all classes, scarcely accepting officers and soldiers. Among the most interesting portions of the dis play were the veteran officers of the War of Inde pendence, and the battalion of National Guards formed by the Univerity. They were drawn up in a line close to each other, symbols, as it were, of the part and future of Greece ; the former in their pie- turesque Albardan costume, which has been nationalized in Greece, looking weatherworn, and exhibiting the true Palikari type, with the long moustache, which has been popularised in pictures; the latter all Europeanized in features and dress, and only distinguished now by their sashes or cockades from the passers-by. These youths and their teachers have played a considerable part in ',lie whole movement; they were the first to come forward and form themselves into a guard of public security ; they have taken up the matter with all the enthusiasm of youth ; they were of great assistance in maintaining order in critical moments; they have' been indefatigable in mounting guard and patrolling, while all their spare time has been devoted to drilling. I saw them come in, and was quite astonished to see the progress they had made in so short a time. The ceremony over, a banquet was given to the troops on the ground. In front of the pavilion, where the religious ceremony had taken place, a raised platform had been erected, surmounted by a double row of columns, and covered in so as to form another open pavilion. This was reserved for the members of the Provisional Government and the superior officers. Right and left the rest of the officers were accommodated, while in a semicircle in front, under open arcades festooned with laurels and myrtles, the soldiers sat down to a feast of roast mutton and wine. There I left them, weary as I was with the dust and bustle inside, to take a stroll towards the temple of the Olympian Jupiter at the other end of the town. Deserted as it was, the complete silence which surrounded it made it appear even grander than usual. The report of musket shots soon after announced the breaking up of the feast, and I has tened back, rather curious to ascertain what the effect of the feast on the troops may have been. Precautions had been taken to prevent disorder and get the troops back to the barracks, but it seemed problematical whether the precautions would be of avail. Wasting powder by firing in the air is a mania common to all Eastern peoples. No feast seems o them complete without this accompaniment. Turkish towns during the Bairam, and Greek towns at Easter become a positive nuisance on this account; and, what with the excitement and carelessness, not a festival of this kind passes without accident. Care had been taken that the soldiers should have no cartridges, but the stray shots which I had heard left little doubt that all the cartridges served out during the movement had not been expended, and thatthe orders as to not firing could not be strictly en forced. Still the thing was better than could be expected. The Minister of War, Colonel Mavromichali, had placed himself, with a numerous stuff, at the head of the two infantry battalions, and accompanied them, amid the " zetos" of the population, to their barracks, without leaving them time to stray or fire away powder. The shots came from the detached bodies of Artillery, who, being with the Sappers and Miners the heroes of the day, indulged freely in this pastime after they left the main column to re turn to their barracks. However, the whole thing was harmless enough, and I have not heard of a single accident. The best proof that the affair was well managed seemed to me that I did not see above a dozen strag glers after the troops had returned to their barracks, and in these not a trace of rioting or drunkenness. By 8 p.m., when I went out, everything was as still as in the most quiet times, and only now and then a "'l'm EL; " from a National Guard sentry reminded you that Athens was not quite slumbering like the capital of a little German kingdom. Such I found Athens ten days after the revolution. A Birkenhead Garibaldi riot, or a well contested election—such, for instance, as Colonel O'Reilly's —has probably left more visible traces than the change of dynasty has here produced. The Provi sional Government was right in its first proclama tion. Il n'y a qu' un Bavarois de mins. THE REVOLUTION IN GREECE. (From the Times Correspondent.) ATHENS, Nov. 2. I arrived yesterday afternoon too late to send you even a rough sketch of kingless Athens by the Austrian mail, which left shortly after my arrival, but, having some faith in first impressions, I will pen mine down before they are effaced, although another week must pass before I can forward them to you. As last time, about six weeks ago, when com ing from Corfu along the Gulf of Corinth to Athena, it fell again to my lot to travel with exiled Greek patriots on their way home. They were those who had been at Constantinople since the Nauplia affair. Their lot had been harder than that of most of their countrymen, for while the latter lived unmolested under the aegis of Great Britain, in the lonian Islands, and were allowed to make the most of their position as popular heroes and martyrs, the Greek Mission at Constantinople went out of its way to annoy those who had taken refuge there and have them sent away. No wonder our steamer was most inconveniently crowded, every one being eager to seize this first op portunity since the revolution in Greece to return and make up for lost time. What with these exiles and a deputation of the Greeks of Constantinople, come to congratulate the Provisional Government in the name of their countrymen, our vessel might have been taken for the good ship Argo carrying another batch of adventurers to a new Colchis, rather than for the mail steamer of that very staid and very respectable company the Messageries Im periales of France. If modern Greeks have inh( rited one quality more than another from the ancient Hellenes it is an almost morbid interest in political discussions. Even in ordinary times, and on the commonest subjects, it is astonishing what an amount of excitement they can get up at the shortest notice; how much more under so exceptional a provocation as the present one. Forty hours of almost uninterrupted talking and discussion seemed too short to ex haust that all absorbing topic. From early davi n heralded in by the scraping of the decks above, and the appearance of seedy-looking waiters below, till late at night, when lamps begin to twinkle and look sleepy, politics run high ; no reverence for that sacred moment when the clinking of knives and forks announces the beginning of dinner, ana even in the dead of night some spirit more restless than his companions disturbsyou by his haunted dreams, or by getting up and hurrying out, as if anxious to impart some bright idea which had suddenly oc curred to him. There you could see them all day long, pacing up and down the deck in twos or threes with rapid stride, and glowing with the excitement of conversation, or else standing about in larger groups listening to some unusually eloquent talker who was holding forth. Coming from the land of silent and dignified Osmanlis, whose most lively conversations rarely exceed the rate of 60 words an hour, this movement and bustle was almost overpowering, and the only hope seemed that even Greek liveliness would swear itself out at that pace before half the voyage was' over. Vain hope. We found the Greek steamer from Syra at the Dardanelles bringing fresh news from Athens, and they were important enough. Our last news had been that the King had retired to Salamis, and that the representatives of England and France accompanied him on board their respec tive men of war. It might still be a question whe ther some of the influences favourable to him would not be brought into play, and with them the way opened to a reaction. This apprehension had ceased now, for the Greek steamer brought the news of the King's departure to Trieste on board her Ma jesty's ship Scylla, Capt. Lambert (the very ship and captain who were at Messina when Garibaldi crossed the Straits in 1860', and of the return of the representatives of France and England at Athens. As usual in such cases, the facts were embellished by slight additions, such as the King's having been prevented from landing at Corfu by a popular demonstration, and the Provisional Go vernment being recognized by the Western Powers. It was enough to make our Greek friends on inciniterec board kl q uite or l a7 k a t n h a o g s e e4 a b r i t e i . cl e They native alongside , produc tion which the native s are in the habit of bringing the steamers , f or oysters, all, for those quaint jugs a nd cur ous gilt lions in ori gin of which popular belief attributes t o the arm y pottery—a specialtte of the Da rdanelles, the of Xerxes. Not satisfied with this they improvised a Pnyx on the afterpart of the deck to the great distress of the lieutenant, whose babords and tri bords were overpowered by the noise around. An athletic-looking monk, with shaggy hair and flow ing beard, was holding forth to the motley crowd which gathered round him with that indiscrimi nate familiarity which even the lowest classes in Greece assume as a kind of natural right, and it was not without considerable trouble they were made at last to understand that if they did not move off they had a fair chance of going on shore at Kilidi Bahr instead of getting to Athens. The skies seemed to take pity on the impatience of our Greek fellow passengers, and rapidly did the good ship Indus skim along the clear waters with all sails set, yet too slow for those restless travellers. " Eleven knots," said the log, and dis appointment was visible in the countenances of the crowd which had collected to witness the operation. The present and future had too much absorbed all minds to leave anything for the past, and Mount Ida, the plain of Troy, rrenedevose,nandglatnheee froth other his toricaloor spots never attracted Hellenes, who ung ra t e f u ll y forgota how much of the interest which E urope takes in their nam e affairs oftho those owing to the charm whi c h the very spots has for Western e ars . At last the morning daw ne d which was to bring us to the end of our journey.

The boat guns as well as the light field pieces for the screw corvette Pylades, 21, 350-horse power, at Chatham, were shipped from the Ordnance-wharf yesterday, in readiness to put on board that vessel. The Armstrong and other guns have been already shipped on board. The Pylades will be undocked during the approaching spring tides, when another fine screw corvette will be at the disposal of the Admiralty. The Flying Fish, 6, 350-horse power, Comman der W. H. Anderson, the arrival of which at the Nore was briefly reported in Ihe Sun of Saturday, awaits orders from the Admiralty respecting her future movements, though there is little doubt, from the defective state of her boilers and the length of time she has been in commission, that her officers and crew will be paid off. It was stated at Chatham yesterday that a Court-martial will be held on the commander and master, to ascertain the cause of the ship having gone on shore on the Isle of Wight. The Flying Fish has been on the coast of Africa about 12 months, during the w hol e of which time she has been engaged looking after t he slaveood cruisers, o ne g prize. and has succeeded in c a p turing Although there has been a great deal of sickness on board, she has hardly lost ain single hand by death. eommission about The Flying Fish has been three years. • ty , a screw steam corvette His Prussian Mai° • ~...oeldt, from Da_ntsic for Japan, Gazelle, Capt. arrived on S unday . afternoon in Plymouth Sound, will remain eight or ten days , where she a ppointments have been mad e at The following —Commander the Hon.

The Court, after deliberating for some time, found the prisoner guilty, but the sentence will not be promulgated until it has been approved by the Lords of the Admiralty. The offence of which the prisoner has been convicted renders him liable to be kept in penal servitude for life. On Saturday Major-General C. C.

The re turns for the past year exhibit a considerable im provenitnt in rifle shooting. The brigace field-days by the troops at Chatham arrLfon having tt srini nated for the season, a garri son order was on Saturday issued by Major-Gen. H. Eyre, commanding the forces an - the Chatham district, directing the who le of the troops composing the garrison to take period cal marches into the country, weekly, during the win:- er. On these oc casions the troops are to be occasion a;; Y halted, and pickets and advanced guards thrown out, .and other manoeuvres attempted which the nature of the cOllll - visited will permit. The, officers 'accompanying the forces are to make occailonal reconnaissances and reports of the districts traversed, and the ad vantages or disadvantages which they present for carrying on military operations. A sketch of the country is also to accompany the report sent in by each officer. The battery of Horse Artillery sta tioned at Chatham took their first march for the season on Friday last, on which occasion they were accompanied by their battery of field Armstrong guns, ammunition and other waggons, and the other accompaniments of a field battery. The ariillery took the route of Bluebell-hill and Aylesford, pro ceeding in that direction nearly as far as Maidstone, and returning to their quarters, Bromptonßarracks, in the afternoon. In accordance with orders to that effect from the War-office, every exertion is being used at the Royal Arsenal for the equipment of 40-pounder Armstrong batteries of position, for the defence of the coast. On Saturday a complete battery of new 40-pounder Armstrong guns, for the land defences, each weighing,3,4 cwt., mounted on travelling car riages, with (animunigon waggons, &c.; ?complete, was received at Gravesend, having been sent from Woolwich in charge of a detachment of Royal Ar tillery. The guns are intended to be placed at New Tavern Fort, opposite Tilbury Fort, for the defence of the Thames. Other batteries of a sistilar nature are in a forward state, and as soon as completed will be sent to the Artillery stations on the banks of the Thames and Medway, in the Chatham district. Each gun is amply equipped with shot and shell and a full supply of all descriptions of stores. WALKING MATCH BETWEEN MILES AND HATLET . , --The contest between William Hatley, of Blackfriars, and James Miles, of Brixton, the champion, for a stake of £5O, was decided yesterday afternoon at Mr. Baum's, Hackney Wick. The distance to be traversed was two miles, the champion allowing Hatley a start of 100 yards. Shortly after four o'clock the competitors appeared on the ground, and a good deal of betting took place at 7 to 4 on Hatley. On the signal being given they started at a rattling pace, Miles in the first lap gaining something like ten yards. He, however, never caught hie opponent, who won with ease in 15 minutes 25 seconds.

RUMOURED RAILWAY ALLIANCE. —In the north there is a very generally believed rumour (Which has been confidently mentioned in some share circulars) that the Istdrth Eastern and North British Companies are afloat to lease the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway at five per ceni, s in order to secure to the east coast linos an independent access to Glasgow, together with command of all the largo towns and ports from the north to London, via the Great Northern. The effect of the rumour has been to cause a rise in the value of Edinburgh and Glasgow stock to a point higher than it stood before the late dreadful accident. However desirable the proposed alliance might be for the east coast interests, it is certain that as yet nothing definite is known of the arrangement in official quarters. Leeds Mercury. Jefferson Davis, the Son thern President, now abou fifty-five years of age, is a native of Kentucky, though by the pos,,ession of property and long residence therein mere intimately connected with Mississippi. Entering the 'U.S. Military Academy at Westpoint, N.Y., in 1824, he served in the let Infantry and let Dragoons successively, and retired to civil life in 1835. At the opening of the Mexican war he was a representative in Congress; but conceiving that at that crisis he could best serve the state in the field, he accepted 1 the command of a volunteer rifle regiment. In acknowledg ment of his distinguished services on the Elio Grande, Con- greats named him a Brigadier-General, but he declined ac cepting a title which had ceased to be honourable, because too often bestowed on the unworthy from party considera tions. From 1847 to 1851 he sat in Congress as senator from Mississippi, and was remarked for his eloquence and ability in debate. He was Minister o f War during General Pierce's presidency, and in that officedisplayed great administrative capacity, and by his care for its interests was very popular with the army, to which he was:already favourably known as a gallant soldier. He is tall, spare, dark-complexioned, as Southerners generally are, with a massive forehead, bril liant deepsot eyes,.a pensive and somewhat sad expression, and a perceptible limp arising from a wound received at the battle of Buena Vista, apropos of which an interesting anec dote is current. When young he fell in love and eloped with a wealthy heiress, the only daughter of Gen. Zachary Taylor. The old gentleman was yet unreconciled to him when the current of events brought Davis, as Colonel of the Ist Mississippi Rifles, under his immediate command in Northern Mexico ; but discernment of his sonin-law's mi litary merits gradually soothed his anger ; and when the brilliant charge of the Mississippi Rifles under the leader ship of Davis retrieved the almost desperate fortunes of the bloody day of Buena Vista, unable to repress his admiration any longer, the stout old general hastened to the front where Davis was lying desperately wounded, and seising his hand, exclaimed—" I forgive the hasty marriage, my dear lad ; any father might be proud of such a son I" Jefferson Davis is alike wary in council and fiery in the field ; but his swift audacity is guided by a cool and powerful intel lect, and is the servant, not the master, of a resolute will. —Ono a Week.

The missionaries at Okak, writing to the widow of the master of the vessel in Angust last, say—" It is with grief, madam, we must inform you that it is, alas, only too true that the long-boat, with her master and crew, arrived at Ungava Bay, but that none of the men survive. Last winter Esquimaux from Ungava Bsy visited our northernmost settlement, Hebron, who re lated that in the winter of 1859-60, several Europeans in a boat landed at the island called Apatok, in Ungava Bay. They lived with the Esquimaux until about January, upon what the latter could provide for them ; but then, most likely when their provisions became short, the Esquimaux at tacked them when they were asleep and killed them, stab bing them with their knives. There is no doubt of these really being the men from the Kitty, because the Esqui maux knew there had been another boat with five men belonging to them, whom they doomed lost. They said one man of the murdered company had very frost•bitten fret , and him the Esquimaux would not kill by stabbing, but showed him a kind of heathen mercy, as they put him into the open air until he was dead by severe cold." It seems that these unfortunate men had been murdered for the sake of the blankets they had with them. It would appear that one of the Esquimaux wanted to save the three Europeans who lodged with him, but they met the same fate as their companions. The tribe who have committed this murder do not appear to have been brought in contact with the European missions; and the friendly tribe who brought the information in to Hebron further informed the Mora • vian missionaries at that place that a little further north m fr Ungava ,ya Bay a whole crew, consistin g i n a ll from 40 on shore and then killed by Esquimaux. :: --
