This is an important consideration, which, in the present critical position of continental affairs, has probably not been without influence in putting a period to the delay which has takfm place in calling for tenders for the additionul service, which it was notified several months• a,go had been determined upon. Mr. David Hoadlay, president of the Panama Railway Company, is 11C)sr in England, so that there need be no delay in completing the necessary Governmental arrangements with that company, which are altogether irrespective of, and in no way embraced in, the tenders for the steam packet por tion of the proposed service.—Liverpool Albion. • NEW NOVEL, ILLUSTRATED BY LEECH. Now ready, at all the Libraries, in 3 vols., •N EW TON DOGVANE. A STORY OF ENGLISH LIFE. By FRANCIS FRANCIS. " 'Newton Dogvane ' is a capital sporting 'novel.' It is eminently readable; and bids fair to become one of the . most popular novels of its higlly popular clasS."-LClironicle. Hurst and Blackett, successors to Henry Colbum. In consequene of representations made to Ad miral Sir M. f, , ymotir, of the mischief done by pirates in the rUghbourhood of Macao, the steam vessel Niger, Certain Colville was despatched to look them up ant if possible destroy their strong hold. The follojing particulars are from the letter of an officer whotook part in the affair : " We left Hcig Kong on Friday the 11th of March with the iunboats Janus and Clown in tow, and proceeded fr Macao, where we arrived the same evening. he Clown steamed in and fetched 'off some Chinee from Macao, who knew the whereabouts of he pirates. On the morning of the 12th we weighed and steamed about 12 miles, anchored, and sett all the boats with the gunboats up the Broadway They returned in the afternoon having been unsiccessful. We then weighed and steamed down thi coast, arriving at Coulan late in the evening, so tint the pirates would not see us or gain informationof our movements. On the fol lowing.morning,the 13th,everything was prepared for an attack on fie stronghold of the pirates, and at seven o'clock the gunboats left, with all the boats in tow, for he reported place, arriving there about ten o'clock. We then h ear d heavy firing, and so knew something was going on. Iu the evening the boats returner' to the ship, and:the party gave the following account of their day's work. On nearing the placethey saw by unmistakeable signs that the pirates anticipated us and intended a contest. The gunboats rowed in as close as they could ; the boats. were manned and gave way for the shore. the pirates opened fire from .a number of guns mounted on shore, but on the boats went through a shower of shot. Nevertheless, only one boat was struck, but not a man was touched. The boats at last touched the ground, when the order was given to jump overboard and charge. The usual cheer was given, and on they went. The Chinese were drawn up both outside and inside their stockades, with long spears and their usual arms, and appeared to fancy that, as a matter of course, they would drive the " English barbarians" back. But it was no go; on the charging party went, and on arriving within a few yards of the pirates those outside abandoned their posts and ran inside the fortifications. They were followed, and as may be supposed numbers were killed. After a short time we succeeded in driving them all out of the village, which was then burnt, destroying the whole place. The rascals were so confident in their fighting powers, and in' the means of resistance they had prepared, that dozens stood still until our men run their bayonets through them. The most extraordinary part of the whole affair is that we had not a single man wounded, although shot came in perfect showers on all sides. On the side of the pirates there must have been at least 100 killed and thrice that number wounded. A short time after the village was burnt, a number of neighbouring mandarins came down to see the captain, and thanked him for having destroyed the pirates' stronghold. They said they had found them too strong, and could not manage to take them. They also said it would have taken over 3,000 Chinese to have destroyed this place, and then they of course would have taken a very long time in doing it, whereas a few Englishmen in boats did it in a very short time.

W. Swinburne, a gen tleman residing in Hertf or d s hi re . The prosecutor said—Yesterday afternoon I was passing with a friend from the Blackwall Railway station along Fenchurch-street, when I found it impossible to pass further on account of a crowd collected at a fire, and was about to turn through a narrow lane when a man touched me on the shoul der, and nodding across the road said, " A man has got your watch ; he is over there." I crossed the road immediately, and looking about saw the pri soner following close behind another man, to whom he seemed . to be in the act of passing -something, but I could not see what. I said to my friend, " I will follow these men," which . seemed to frighten the . prisoner, for, after walking a few paces he put down mv Watch on th e p avement, and then looking into my face asked me what I wanted with him. I seized him with one hand, and endeavoured to pick up the watch with the other, but while I was stoop ing for the watch he got away, and ran off as fast as he could. I came up with him in Mark-lane, just as he was stopped by a policeman and taken into custody. He denied that he had everJiad the watch, but when he got to the Station house lie said that some one had put it into his pocket. After some corroborative evidence the prisoner was committed for trial. ROYAL ALHAMBRA PALACE, • Leidester- Square. —3I`COLLUIII'S GREAT ANGLO-SAXON CIRCUS-.

ONE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD ON CONVICTION. The fearful dangers to invalids from spurious imitations of DU BARRY's invaluable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA LENTA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and, upon applidation in 1854 for protection, the High Court of Chancery granted an injunction restraining Alfred Ilooper Nevill, and his agents, under a penalty of £5,000, from selling any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of which we are the sole pro prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infor mation of any breach of the injunction.

London : Barry Du Barry & Co., 77, Regent-street. THE MURDER AT LEDBURY. LEDBURY, Saturday Night. The greatest excitement still prevails here in re ference to this horrible and mysterious affair. Some silver money has been found near the spot, and some of it is identified. Some circumstances which have caused a suspicion to attach to a certain person are being followed up with circumspection and diligence; but the authorities are of opinion that the ends of justice might probably be frustrated by the publication of what has been ascertained. Williamson of the London detective force, has arrived at Ledbury, and is prosecuting his inquiries, with the assistance of the local police. On Saturday evening, in the streets of Hereford, a very singular and p a i n f u l i nc id en t occurre d i n connexion with the tragic event. An itinerant balladmonger was hawking an exaggerated account of the affair, professing to be "a full, true, and par cular account of the cold-blooded murder of Mrs. Harriett Baker, for the small charge of a half penny," when a respectably-dressed man, appa rently just come off a journey, made up to the fellow through the eager crowd which surrounded him and said the man was an impostor, and ought to be punished for gulling the public with such a wicked lie, as no such murder had been committed. The fellow indignantly repudiated this impeach ment of his veracity, and appealed to the by standers, who assured the stranger that the fact of the murder having been committed was beyond doubt. The poor man was horror-striken, and ex claimed, " Then the murdered woman was my sister." He had received a letter on the previous day, stating that his sister at Ledbury, whom he had not seen for 14 years, was ill. On this inti mation he had come from Richmond to see her, and was about to undertake the last stage of his journey , when he thus accidentally acquired the awful in formation of her murder. He at once proceeded by express to Ledbury. The body of the poor woman was interred in the parish churchyard yesterday evening. The funeral attracted crowds of spectators. Pending the ad journed inquest on Thursday next, the district magistrates will hold a private investigation of this case on Monday. A rumour has been circulated that a man has been apprehended on the charge of committing the murder, but on inquiry we find this to be false. [ADVERTISEMENT.] —The Barry's salutary effect o f D u delicious Revalenta Arabica Food in removing indigestion (dyspepsia), flatulency, constipation, nervous, bilious d liver complaints, cough, asthma, consumption, and debility, without medicine, is admirably displayed by the folloiring letters :—" Ridlington Rectory, Norfolk, June 10, 1850.

" On the following morning, the 14th, the gun boats and boats were off again, manned and armed, in search of a number of piratical junks, reported to be collected in the Broadway, near Macao. The Niger at the same time weighed anchor and came to Macao at noon. The gunboats returned during the night of the 16th. They had a most successful cruise, and destroyed everything in the shape of a piratical junk they met with. They met the whole fleet, and after an exciting chase in the boats they destroyed it. The chase was in different directions, one boat chased a junk 20 miles before she caught her. It seems crud sometimes, when you think of so many human beings being killed ; but one's regret is dissipated when one knows that those men were monsters without mercy and without honesty, permitting nothing to stand between thorn and the obtaining any possible booty. It is re ported of them that they were in the habit of eating the hearts and the sinews of those captains of trading vessels and others who most stoutly resisted their piratical attacks." We learn that Admiral Seymour, before leaving the station, wrote a letter, which was read on the decks of the Niger, the Janus, and the Clown, thanking all who had taken part in this expedition fbr the admirable and most successful manner in which it had been conducted. The Chinese and the merchants of Hong Kong are greatly delighted at the destruction of this nest of pirates ; and it is supposed that there will be some marked recogni tion of the benefit thereby conferred. AUST.RALIA, VIA PANAMA. The long-agitated question of postal communica tion with the Australian colonies, via Panama and New Zealand, in addition to the existing service by the Peninsular and Oriental Company, via Suez, is at length about to be solved. Government are upon the point of inviting tenders, which are to include provision for conveying the mail of Victoria and the other Southern colonies to and from Mel bourne, the port terminating the main line on that side being Sydney. The time of conveyance to and from Melbourne is fixed at under fifty-five days, and the arrivals and departures are to be timed as to alternate fortnightly with those of the existing service. It is understood that the competitors for the contract will be three in number, but it is most probable that the West India Royal Mail Company, from the facilities they possess' for its execution, will be successful. It has already a fortnightly com munication between Southampton and Aspinwall, connecting at Panama with the steamers of the Pacific Company, which run regularly between that port and Valparaiso, calling at all the intermediate ports, and between Panama and San Francisco, calling at Acapulco and Manzanillo. ; while between Panama and the principal ports of Central America there is regular communication by the steamers of the railway company, whose carriages traverse the Isthmus, from ocean to ocean, with the greatest punctuality, in, about three hours 'and a half. The offer of that company in respect of the conveyance of the English mails over the Isthmus is most liberal. The directors have undertaken to perform the services on the same terms as they now convey the mails for the United States Government, and thus without any reference to the quantity of mail matter carried. Whether that quantity be large or small they offer to convey it for a fixed annual payment of £20,000, which is the sum paid by the American Government for the transmission of their Mails. It is to be observed that, under the existing arrangement, the. British Post-office De partment pays the Panama Company twenty-two cents per pound for the conveyance of the mails for the West Coast, which is precisely the rate paid by the United States Government previous to their present contract. Under the arrangement for the transmission of the Australian and New Zealand mails over the Isthmus of Panama, the mails for all parts of the West Coast, from Vancouver's Island and British Columbia down to Valparaiso, will be included, and these may, at no distant day, be as important as those of our possessions at the anti podes. It is not, therefore, the Australian colonists alone, and their correspondents in this country, whose interests will be served by the additional mail services via Panama. Our commercial rela- tions with the whole of the Pacific will be vastly benefited by it. The Royal Mail Company has, look ing at the matter in this light, and assuming of course that their tender will be as reasonable as is com patible -with thorough efficiency of service, already deserved the contract by enabling our merchants to avail of the facilities afforded by the Panama Railway for rapid communication with the West Coast of America. An arrangement has been entered into with the Panama Railroad Company and Pacific Steamship Company, under which goods are now shipped at Southampton for all ports on that coast between Panama and Valparaiso, through bills of lading being issued by the Royal Mail Com pany. The like facilities are afforded. in Liverpool by the steam line of Mr. Holt, and the line of sail ing vessels for which Mr. J. Hamilton is agent, in respect of the Central American ports. Contracts have been entered into between the Panama Com pany and the Government of Costa Rica, Salvador, and Guatemala, under whichimportant privileges have been conceded, one being a reduction of ten per cent. on the import duties leviable on merchan dise carried over the Isthmus, and landed in the Rifts of those republics from the steamers of the company. Owing to this reduction, valuable goods can be shipped to the Central American ports on the West Coast from Europe and the United States, via Panama, more economically, even at the com paratively high rates now charged, than via Cape Horn, freight free. Aspinwall and Panama, being free ports, have become important entrepots of mer chandise, and the merchants of Central America, and of many, of the ports of South America, regu larly resort to the latter to replenish their stocks of good. The advantages to be derived from the Panama route are not, however, confined to the facilities it affords for more extensive and frequent The following ships at Chatham Dockyard are ordered to be completed and fitted for the second division of the steam reserve in the Medway—viz., the Rodney, 90, in dock, converting into a screw steamship ; the Irresistible, 80,.line-of-battle screw steamer, building ; the Severn, 50, frigate, in dock, being lengthened and altered into a screw steamer; and the Wasp, 13, screw steam sloop, in dock, having defects made good. The Sir William Peel screw transport, sailed from Portsmouth at noon yesterday, for Corfu, with the officers and troops on board, as stated in 7he Sun of Saturday, with the exception of Paymaster Treeve, of the 2d B atta li on, 4th Foot, who did not embark. The Cressy, 80, screw steamship, arrived at Portsmouth from the eastward yesterday. The Hannibal, 91, screw steamship, Captain Matthew Connolly, bearing the flag of Rear-Admi ral G. R. Mundy, left Spithead yesterday at noon, under canvas, for Malta, and rounded the east end of the Wight on her course down Channel, with a fine breeze easterly. The Agamemnon, 91 screw steamship, Captain Thomas Hope, being fitted out in the steam basin at Portsmouth, has sent up her lower and topsail yards and pointed her topgallant masts: Rear-Admiral Sir C. Fremantle, K.C.8., was summoned from Plymouth on Saturday evening by the Lords of the Admiralty. The paddlewheel steam vessel Advice, Master M. C. Raymond, left Plymouth on Saturday for Queens town. The screw steamship Revenge, 91, had her j ury masts taken out at Devonport on Friday, and was transported to Keyham basin on Saturday. The gunboat Weser, 6, Commander A. S. H. Johnstone, from the Mediterranean, arrived at Ply mouth on Friday night. She was commissioned in 1856, and her crew will, it is expected, be paid off at once. The paddlewheel steam vessel Pigmy, 3, Master W. Johnstone, sailed from Plymouth on Friday for Portland. The Phoebe, 6, was taken into the Davenport dockyard on Friday. The screw steamship Donegal, 101, was warped to the sheer hulk at Devonport on Saturday, and had her masts and bowsprit stripped. The training brig Nautilus, 6, Lieut. W. B. Grant, sailed from Plymouth on Saturday for Dartmouth. A notice has been posted at the gates of her Ma jesty's dockyard, Portsmouth, directing all naval pensioners fit for sea service to present themselves on board the St. Vincent (flag ship of Rear-Admiral Hon. G. Grey) at once. All pensioners fit for Coast guard or harbour service are to be on board the Bellerophon for service in the Asia (guard ship of steam reserve) at 10.30 a.m. on the 24th inst. Twenty-seven men for the navy from Bristol arrived at Plymouth on Saturday. They were sent immediately to the guard ship Impregnable. Forty-five volunteers for the navy were sent from Liverpool to Portsmouth on Friday night last, and another draught,' numbering about 60, were to be forwarded to the same destination to-night (Mon day.) The proportion of able seamen who now volunteer at Liverpool is on the increase. Capt. Brown, RN., Registrar-General of Seamen, has been visiting the eastern ports during the last few days for the purpose of encouraging volunteering for the Royal Navy. At Great Yarmouth Captain Brown had interviews with several of the ship owners of the port, who expressed their readiness to afford him every assistance. At Lynn about 50 volunteers have already come forward. A close holiday is ordered to be observed to.day (Monday) in the whole of the departments of Wool wich Arsenal, which gives the clorks - and operatives a freedom from their duties from Saturday at noon until Tuesday morning. The privilege of to-day's holiday has been accorded to the men by Govern ment at their own request, instead of Thursday, in commemoration of her Majesty's birthday, which was observed in the dockyard and other Govern ment establishments at Woolwich on that day. Lieutenant Walton, in command of 40 non-com missioned officers and gunners of the Royal Artil lery, left Woolwich on Saturday for Gibraltar. Two Norwegian ships of war—the Ornen cor vette, of 18 guns, and the Alfen screw schooner, 6 guns, from Christiania, on a Channel cruise, put into Falmouth on Thursday, and on anchoring ex changed salutes with her Majesty's ship Russell, 60, Captain Wodehouse, in command of the Coastguard. The above ships are supposed to be the two mistaken for French, and said to be in search of Austrian merchantmen, as reported some days since. The following appointments were made on Satur day at the Admiralty :—W. H. Leech, midshipman, to the Emerald ; J. B. Ricardo, surgeon, to the Falcon ; Dr. T. M'Gill Fulton, acting assistant surgeon, to the London ; T. Leetham, second master, to the Cressy; Herbert W—ilore, acting assistant clerk, to the Queen Charlotte ; and Alfred P. Free man, acting assistant-clerk, to the Emerald. THE ARMY. Major-Gen, Bloomfield, Inspector- Gent.ral of Ar tillery, in temporary command of Woolwich garri son, and Commodore the Hon. J. R. Drummond, C. 8., Superintendent of the dockyard, aides•de camp to her Majesty attended the embarkation on Saturday at Greenhithe of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess George of Saxony and the Duke of Oporto. A guard oehonour, consisting of 100 non-commissioned officers and gunners of the Royal Artillery, in command of Captain Travers, from Woolwich, and the Royal Artillery band per formed the customary honours. Their Royal High nesses, accompanied by Gen. Bloomfield and Com modore Drummond, were rowed alongside the Royal Portuguese steam yacht Bartolomeo Dios, which lay in the offing, in the Admiralty barge, fitted out and provided from Woolwich for the oc casion, the Artillery band and the ship's music playing the national airs. Her Majesty's ships Banshee, Commander Colin A. Campbell; Princess Alice, Mr. V. W illiams ; and Monkey, Second Master Syndercombe, were in attendance, with the national colours flying at the main. Immediately after the departure of the Royal visitors three of the ships embarked their freights and returned to Woolwich at 12 o'clock, the Banshee remaining at Greenhithe, where she was subsequently swung in preparation for sea, and was to sail this (Monday) morning for Portsmouth, on her way to the Medi terranean. _ _ The following officers of the Chatham garrison have been ordered to hold themselves in readiness the to embark for India, for the purpose of joi n i ng service companies of theirrespective Co r p s :—Li eut, Edward F.

On Friday an order was received by the adjutant of the 3d Lancashire Militia, from the Vice-Lieut.- Colonel, J. IV. Patten, for the assembling of the corps for their annual training at the latter end of GUILDHALL.—Mr. Win. Howard and his son, ,oy manufacturers, of G 2, Barbican, were summoned for assulting a carman in the employ of the South- Eastern Railway Company. Samuel Charles Brampton said—l am a porter in the service of the South-Eastern Railway Company. OE the 2d of the present month I took a box to the defendants' house. I placed it on the counter, and retained my hold of it while I made a demand for 2s. 4d. for the carriage, There was a label on the box, directing that it should be forwarded by the luggage-van train. Mr. Howard refused to pay the amount, and on my saying I must take the box back he said r should not, and called his son to assist him to take it from me. In the struggle for the box the cord round it cut my hand severely, and that is the assault I com plain of. This is not the first time I have had a bother with the defendants about the payment of the carriage for parcels. Cross-examined—The defendant refused to pay because he thought the charge ought not to have been more than Is. Gd. I brought the box from the London-bridge station. Mr. Howard, jun., signed the delivery-book, which I produle. Mr. De Jersey (for the defendants)—We contend that the parcel was actually delivered, and the company had their remedy against the defendants for refusing to pay. Sir P. Laurie—That is the difficulty I see in this case. It is a nice point to determine whether the box was delivered or not. The company's ser vant clearly did not intend to part with the posses sion of it without the money ; but, on the other hand, he has taken a receipt for the delivery, and the refusal to pay may, to a certain extent, be jus tified by the error in the charge. Mr. Howard, sen.—The fact is, sir, this parcel was directed to go by the luggage-van train, which would cost about ls. 3d. or ls. Gd., but the company thought proper to convey it by passenger train, and to charge for it at the increased rate for pas senger luggage, which I, of course, objected to pay. Sir P. Laurie—This is quite a new case, for I never heard of such a point being raised before. I would recommend you, Mr. Howard, to pay the charge demanded and proceed against the company to recover the excess. Mr. Howard—l would rather not, sir, for I had a similar dispute with the South• Eastern Railway Company in August last, and protested against the charges. I, however, paid them, and then tried to recover the excess, and it was three months before I succeeded, and then not until I had threatened to write to the Times about it. Sir P. Laurie—l think the defendant was wrong in this case, but I should like to consider it further before giving my decision. Mr. Martin—The defendant had no right to question the charge made by the company. Mr. De Jersey—He had every right, for the com pany published a scale of charges from which they ought not to depart ; and if they do we have a most undoubted right to dispute them. Sir P. Laurie—ls it legal as well as customary for carmen to take parcels back when they cannot get the money for them ? Mr. Reece—Most unquestionably, sir, as the com pany have a lien upon all parcels until the carriage is paid. This is the first case of the kind we have ever had. Sir. P. Laurie—l will give my decision on Wed nesday next. The summons was adjourned accordingly. MARYLEBONE.—A young man named John Dignan was charged with having been concerned with another in knocking down and robbing of 12s. James Ray, of 8, Little North-street, Lisson-gr9ve. The evidence went to show that on March 12th last prosecutor was passing along Capland-street, Marylebone, in the evening, when he suddenly re ceived a tremendous blow from the prisoner which knocked him down and stunned him, and, while lying bleeding upon the ground, the sum above alluded was stolen from his trousers' pocket by the prisoner and his companion named White : the pri soner then escaped, but White was taken by Ser geant Boden, 11 I), and after an examination at this court he was committed. The jury found him guilty and the sentence passed upon him was four years' ppnal servitude. The police had, ever since the out rage, been in quest of the prisoner, and he was ultimately captured by 237 D. A former conviction was now proved against him by Cattermull, 38 D. It was also shown that prosecutor was so much in jured by the violence of the blows inflicted upon S him by the prisoner as to render it necessary for him to be conveyed at once to the dispensary, of which he remained an out-patient for some weeks. The prisoner, who declined making any defence at present, was committed by Mr. Long for trial. WESTMINSTER.—Wm. Groves, a rough look ing fellow, was charged as follows : Collis, 268 B, said that at half-past one o'clock that morning he was on duty in Cranley-mews, and thought he heard some one in the gardens of On slow-square, Brompton, close by. He stood still for a moment, and then distinctly heard footsteps in one of the gardens. He called a brother constable, and having been raised to the top of the wall " the garden his againstlanternlialendwsaall. imni saw thepreisdoinateevrover in seeing witness the prisone r ma d e hi s escape over an on adjoining wall, and on w it ness springing his rattle ou a n n d o another e s i t • c e o k n , s a t n a b d e in.

A back window of the house in the garden of which Collis saw the pri soner was thrown wide open. There were no marks of violence upon any portion of it, and the probabi lity was that prisoner, finding it unfastened, had opened it, and was about to get into the house when, hearing Collis coming, he endeavoured to secrete himself, and afterwards to make his escape. George Sowerby, 113 B, hearing a rattle sprung, watched the prisoner, and saw him leave the area of No. 2, Onslow-square, upon which he took him into custody. The prisoner was remanded till Wednesday. A pawnbroker's ticket having been found on the prisoner relating to a shirt, and as he was strongly suspected to have been concerned in other burglaries which have been committed in the neighbourhood, no time was lost in going to the pawnbrokers and examining the article in question. The result was that a woman of bad character named Fogherty was taken into custody, charged with being con • cerned with Groves in another offence, the shirt being part of the proceeds of a burglary, and the woman having pawned it. She was also remanded. The long dresses which our ladies are now wearing, and which one is sorry to see employed in sweep ing the filth of the streets, bring to recollection the follow ing passage in the " Citizen of the World" :—" Nay, he ventures to affirm that a train may often bring a lady into the most critical circumstances, for should a fellow,' says he, ' offer to come up to ravish a kiss, and the lady attempt to avoid it, in retiring she must necessarily tread upon her train, and thus fall fairly upon her back, by which means e very one knows—her clothes may be spoiled.'." The image must have tickled Goldsmith's fancy, for it is re peated in No, 2 of the "Bee."—Bulletin.

Th e sol diers, pleased with their bargains, bought the oranges in heaps, and were loud in praise of a city where they could get orange s for a halfpenny which in Paris they would have to pay fire pence for. The matter coming to the ears of the Syndic or chiefmagis trate, be issued a proclamation, in which he appealed to the patriotism of the orange merchants, and desired them in future not to take advantage of the inexperience of our soldiers. The fact is that the soldiers had been cheated by being charged a sou for what is hardly worth a centime at Genoa and all along the shores of the Mediterranean. How ever, the soldiers finding that they had been "done," took their revenge by insisting on having six oranges for a sou instead of five, which is the usual number given in exchange for that coin. With the exception of the orange trade, in which the desire of gain got the better of patriotism, the Genoese population received the Freneh : Ailte brothers. . The ladies oil the . -- itrieteeiaet . have placed their opera boxes at the service :Of our officers, and the night before last • the :first and' second rows of the theatre Carlo Felice • were filled with French nnifornis. All the pekoes of Genoa, and you know they are nunaerouF, are open to our generals and superior officers. Marshal Baraguay d'Hilliers is lodged in the Royal palace, General Brazaine in the Doria palace, and General Foray in the Durazzo palace, and a curious sight it is to see our soldiers seated in these marble halls or leaning their elbows on the marble bal cOnies. The Strada Balbi and the Via Nuova con tain a unique assemblage of costly palaces, as re markable for their artistic merits as for the beauty of the material of which they are built. All is marble ; the caryatides, the mascarons, the bal conies, the pillars, the basements, the cornices; and, in the interior, the staircases and walls. All these palaces seem to have been cut out of a gigantic block of marble, and they are so numerous, not only in the Via Balbi, the Via Nuova, and the Via Nuovisima, but in all the streets, that a man who goes to Genoa, must indeed be an outcast if he cannot find some humble little marble palace to shelter himself in. My lodgings are in the ancient Grimaldi palace, which neces sity has converted into furnished hotel. My room is paved with white marble, and to reach it I ascend a staircase of black marble, after tra versing a hall whose roof is supported - by eight marble column s , eac h a s i ng l e block.- Do not imagine that I am favoured in this. For two francs and a half in ordinary times, and for five francs now, when Genoa is crowded with strangers, anybody can enjoy this marble luxury. lam bound to add, however, that great power of limb is required for its enjoyment. At Genoa, the smallest palaces are ten stories high. Each palace, wishing to have a view of the sea, looks over its neighbour's shoulders. A palace not tall enough to get a peep of the sea, is a dishonoured building. The pleasure which the Genoese have for viewing the vessels which plough their way through the blue gulf, makes them prefer the upper stories. Thus the rich Genoese live in aerial altitudes, which are usually attained only by means of balloons. For my part, I ought to be grateful for being lodged in a story of honour—the eighth! From my marble window, I see the port, the towers, the lighthouses, the forts, the citadel, and, beyond and around them, scattered here and there amidst groves of myrtle and orange trees, costly Genoese villas ; but I cannot enjoy this splendid view without scaling a staircase of 162 steps ; and when, pressed for time, I have come down again from this ele v at e d reg i on an d fi n d t h at I have left an important letter on my table, you will not be surprised at my wishing to exchange the grandeur og the palace for the convenience of the entresol. EDMOND TEXIEII. " Genoa, April 30." Between the present condition of Europe and the circumstances existing during the first French empire, many parallels have been drawn. Even the names of the continental sovereigns engaged in the last great war, were identical with those of the present reigning monarchs. The Emperor of Russia was then, as now, named Alexander ;—The Emperor of Austria, Francis ;—The King of Prussia, William ; and the Emperor of the French, Napoleon. WILLS AND BEQUESTS.
