By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E., _ _ And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan_ Infirmary for the Curt of Strictures of tile Urethra. " This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their mana;ementis founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

Benjamin Thisle ton Ash, aged 28, at his private residence, No. 27, Upper Gloucester-place, Regent's-park, where he committed self-destruction in the most extraordi nary manner, on Friday last. Lieut. Edward Ash said deceased was his brother, and had recently re turned from India, where he was attached to the Bth Light Native Infantry, and took an active pert in suppressing the rebellion; He had not been well, complaining of great pains in his head. He went to Brighton on Wednesday, for the benefit of his health, but only remained one night, as he was so ill. On Thursday night was with him very late ; he was unwell, and witness did not leave him until two o'clock in the morning. During the early part of Friday morning a cup of tea was sent to deceased, but finding his door fastened, and there being no answer, it was thought he had gone to sleep, and it was determined not to awake him. Witness knocked at the door at about one o'clock, and receiving no reply became alarmed, and the room having been forcibly entered deceased was found lying on the floor in a pool of blood ; he was quite dead, and there was a large wound in his left arm, and a razor lying near him. Mr. Henry Guy, M.R.C.S., said he was called in on Friday, about half-past one o'clock, and found deceased lying on the floor on his back, deluged in blood; The wound was right across the left arm, dividing all the arteries and vessels to the biceps muscle. It was one perfect gash. There was a slight wound across the wrist of the same arm. On the chest of drawers, where he had evidently been standing, there was his banker's book, a blank cheque signed, and some writen directions as to how his money was to be got from the Agra bank. There were no signs eta struggle ; the bedclothes were turned down as if he had sud denly got out of bed. The body was cold. •He believed that death had taken place from loss of blood from the wound in the left arm. Had known deceased from a boy. He was considered one of the most fortunate men in the army. He had distinguished himself very much in the Indian campaign. Was just gazetted to the captaincy of his company, and, in addition, had an appoint ment waiting for him in India worth £1,200 a year. The Coroner having summed up, the jury returned a verdict " That the deceased committed self-destruction whilst in an unsound state of mind." FRIGHTFUL SUICIDE OF A CAPTAIN IN THE LON DONDOCKS.—Last night Mr. John Humphrey's, the coroner, held an inquest at the Wellington Tavern, Cannon-street, St. George's-in-the-East, on view of the body of John Allison Booth, aged 40 years, who committed self-destruction under the following circumstances. It appeared from the evi dence that the deceased was the captain of the barque Alma, of Sunderland, at present lying in the west qnay of the London Docks. The deceased had been on a voyage to India, which had turned out a failure. This fact seemed to prey upon his mind, and he had complained of severe pains in the head. On Friday morning last one of the ship keepers went into the cabin, and discovered the de ceased lying between two boxes. There was an ex tensive wound in the front of the deceased's neck, and blood had spirted about the floor. There was a razor-strop and a stone upon which some instru ment had been sharpened. Search was made, and after an hour a razor was found lying under his head. Dr. English was called, and promptly at tended, but life was quite extinct. Mr. Peter An derson, an officer of the customs, said that he had known the deceased for several years. Deceased had suffered great pain in the head, would pace his bedroom at night, and speak incoherently to his wife. The deceased had a large family, and he seemed devotedly attached to them and his wife. He had lately said to his wife, " What will become of you if Igoto a lunatic asylum ?" Deceased had also been heard to exclaim, " I shall die." Mr. Robert Ord, the broker to the owner of the ship, Isetaslytied excited.tha the He h t vessel had made a voyage which was unprofitabl e . Th e d eceese d was very sens itive a had recently received a com munication from the owners relative to the ac counts of the ship ; but as they passed through a course of three years, they had not been rendered. The deceased said to witness a few days before he died, " Come and see me on Saturday, if I am not dead." Witness remonstrated with deceased, when he added, " I think I shall cut my throat." The deceased was of opinion that the owners of the ship had some mistrust of his conduct in the voyage, but witness was certain that when the accounts were fully gone through there would lee a large balance due to the deceased. The , jury ret urne d a ver di c t of " Temporary insanit y.' FATAL FALL DOWN A SHIP'S HOLD.—On Satur day Mr. John Humphreys, the coroner held an in quiry at the George and Dragon public house, High-street, Sha s dw y e e l a l, r a s. as toTthhee deceased e o d f A w le a x s and er ship keeperW i n h a r e t fa , agedB vessel called the Cumberland, lying in sin the deck, when he T th h e ur S a n da a y dw la e a l t l-b h as e w in a o s f e t r h e e s L g ondon Docks, a n d on fell head foremost down the hold. He was raised up, and seen by Mr. J. B. Ross, the surgeon, but llaifeeerwataiensea of the brain. xtinct, fro T from fractureskul l of re th tn e rneda and lacerations of the brain. The jury returned a ver of " Accidental death." THE MURDER AT WINCHELSEL—The inquest iu this case concluded on Saturday with a verdict of " 'Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown." The deceased, whose body was found w hy th aai e de s n ea ti sh fie o d re as atthe a ma ea nn s a t s me i d de wr of . s ß an y d e s ,Haa native of Coxheath, near Maidstone, Kent. He was about 40 years of age, and when found had been in the water apparently but a few hours. On his head were no less than six deep incisions, and also an other over the right eye, evidently inflicted with some sharp instrument, and leaving no doubt that a brutal murder had been perpetrated, the murderers afterwards throwing the body of their victim into the sea. The medical testimony clearly proved that the deceased met a violent death, and the jury re turned the verdict stated above. Letters from Caracas state that Venezuela con tinues to be afflicted with civil strife. Trade was in con sequence very dull.

The following is the report of the loss of the screw•steamer Scamander, of Liverpool, 1,050 tons, Thomas Jenkins, master, from Liverpool to Alex andria, which vessel foundered on the 31st January, 1860, in lat. 47.2 N., lon. 7.15 W., as mentioned in yesterday's Sun. "Jan. 27. Left Liverpool at 2 p.m. this day, with a crew of 37, including myself and three passengers, and at 11 p.m., same day, passed Holyhead, and proceeded down channel with a light N.W. wind. Midnight, fresh breeze from W. "28th. Strong S.W. gales this day. At 11 a.m. passed the Smalls, distance five miles. At 8 p.m., sudden shift of wind to N.W., with a heavy cross sea. Midnight, gale moderating, and backing to the westward. ~ 29th. Strong S.W. breeze, with frequent heavy squalls. At noon, sudden shift of wind to N.W., with a heavy cross sea, causing the ship to labour and roll heavily and ship much water on deck. At 10 p.m. the wind again backed to S.W., and in creased to a gale. " Mtn. Sti:ong N.W. gales, with rain. At 4 a.m. veered to W. and N.W., and moderated to a fresh breeze. Set all possible sail. At 8 a.m. strong gales. Shortened sail as required. At 9 a.m., the gale in creasing, and the vessel shipping much water, I was compelled to heave her to, which I accordingly did, under a double-reefed maintrysail and mainstay sail. At noon the gale increased to a complete hur ricane, blowing the mainstaysail out of the bolt rope. At 2 p.m. such was the force of the gale, that although the engines were working at fell speed and a double-reefed maintrysail set, I was unable to keep the ship to the wind. At 6 p.m. the chief engineer reported a leak in the midship compart ment, or engine -room. Applied steam and hand pumps, and kept the ship before the wind to enable the steam-pumps to throw as much water as pos sible ; but the vessel shipping so much water and washing the men from Cie pumps, I again hove the ship to at 7 p.m. At 9 p.m. the leak increased so fast that fires in stoke-hole were extinguished. Con tinued to pump and bale the water out of the engine room, and at midnight discovered four feet water in the two midships compartments, and increasing rapidly, notwithstanding that all hands were em ployed in pumping and baling without intermission during the night. _ "31`t. Gale moderating, and ship filling fast. At 4 a.m., found eight feet of water in same compart ment; at 8 a.m., 12 feet in same ; and at 9 a.m., seeing no possibility of saving the ship, as the sea now made a complete breach over her, having car ried away a groat portion of bulwarks, rails, and stancheons, besides deck-houses, and the crew being nearly exhausted, I determined to abandon the ship. Accordingly, ordered the boats to be lowered, three of which were lowered with great difficulty, owing to the heavy sea ; the fourth was stove lowering. At 11 a.m., having succeeded in getting the crew and passengers safely in the boats, by which time the ship had settled down to her gunwale, and fearing to remain, I abandoned the ship without being able to save my own or crew's effects, or the ship's log-book. There being no vessel in sight, I ordered the boats to be kept before the sea, to endeavour to make the French coast, then dist an t 120 m il es . At noon di scovere d a sa il to the N.W., an d pu ll e d f o r her, a t th e same ti me showing a signal of distress ; on seeing which she bore down on us, and proved to be the screw steamer Cornelia, of Rotterdam, from Trieste to Rotterdam. The captain, with much difficulty, succeeded in getting us all safely on board by 2 p.m., at which time the ficarnander had sunk stern foremost. " Too much praise cannot be given to Captain Muntendam, not only for rescuing us from our perilous position, but for his extreme kindness to us while on board his ship, which also had suffered in the late gale, having lost deck-houses, boats, and galley ; and, consequen tly, h av i ng no conven i ence f or cooking, even for his own crew, and our provi sions consisting of biscuit, saturated with salt water." Letters from Guayaquil of the 31st of December state that Mr. Cope, her Majesty's Charg4 d'Affaires at Quito, had left that city for Guayaquil for the purpose of insisting on the payment of the bondholders' proportion of Customs duties, hypothecated for the interest on the con solidated bonds of Ecuador. IRELAND. DUBLIN, MONDAY MORNING. ALARMING STATE OF TO , RMAKEADy. The brutal murder of Lord Piunket's plough. man, in this district, has turned public attention to the lawless state of affairs that prevails in it. The people, both Roman Catholic and Protestant, carry arms in the open day ; and since the burning of the school-house of Tuam, the former will not buy or sell with the latter. The Daily Express says :—" The horrifying murder at Tourmakeady is only on e , th oug h certainly much the worst, of a series of outrages, systematically planned and daringly perpetrated in the district of Pal try during the lust 15 months. This organised conspiracy is directed against Protestants, and chiefly against the tenants of Lord Plunket, with the avowed object of exterminating them. Unof fending men and women have been constantly attacked and severely beaten. The lives of wit nesses attending the sessions at Ballinrobe have been endangered by furious mobs. One house was burned, and an attempt was made to burn another occupied by Protestants. Poor Harvison, the first victim of the systematic persecution, whose object is to banish the Protestants,' was a native of Monaghan. He settled in Tourmakeady seven or eight years ago. He was a respectable, inoffensive man. He was not a convert from Romanism, and he had no connection with the notices to quit served on some of the tenants. The only causes that cau be assigned for this foul murder are, that the victim was a Protestant, and that he was a witness in a case where the relatives of some influential parties were convicted for poaching on Lord Planket's estate. The Government should not be ignorant of the fact that for miles round Tourmakeady the Roman Catholic inhabitants carry arms in the open day, and shots are being continually fired at night. In consequence of the terror thus produced, in creased tenfold by this murder, the few isolated Protestants are armed also in self-defence, and do not venture to retire to rest without barricading their doors. Is it not time, then, for the Govern ment to protect these peaceable subjects of the Queen ? If something effectual be not speedily done, more outrages of a similar kind will probably be committed." Another Dublin journal corroborates the state ments of the Express, and adds : _ ___ " Some years since Tipperary was the Aceldama of Ireland. A vigorous execution of the law on the part of the Government, and a determined resistance on the part of the landlords, quelled Ribbon ism, and its result—murder--in that county. But the evil subdued in Tipperary has risen dominant in the King's County and Mayo. In the former, drilled bands of armed banditti attack the dwelling-houses of the gentry and respectable tenantry who are Protestants. Since the burning of the school-house of Tuam, the line of demarcation between Pro testants and Romanists has spread wider and wider. No R'omanist will buy or sell with a Protcstant— Protestant children are assailed on their way to school—Protestant ladies are insulted in the streets with the coarsest, the most indecent, and insulting language, and the poor peasant who ventures be yond the limits of his own field to fair or market does so carrying his life in his own hand. For a year or more the districts of PL r,ry and Tourma keady have been the seat of chronic agitation. A turbulent priest, the Abbe Lavelle, whose present conduct is only in conformity with his antecedents, has infused new vigour into the anti-Protestant crusade." Nor is he without other aid. A local journal, the Connaught Patriot, fans the flame of discontent—out-nations the Nation in its abuse of everything Protestant, and babbles away its treason to willing ears. As the result, the whole country is in agitation, and all who have anything to lose are in alarm. The priests openly pro claim the banishment of all Protestants from the district, and prophesy that before winter is ended many of them will " make clay" in the churchyard. Is it any wonder that an excitable and grossly ignorant rabble should interpret their words as an encouragement to crime, and believe that they cannot be punished for a little over-zeal in the cause of their Church ? CAPTAIN BALFE, J.P., AND THE GOVERNMENT. Mr. de Moleyns, Q.C., has sent in his report in this case to the authorities. After the usual pre liminary observations, the report proceeds as fol lows :—" The evidence which, with consent of the parties, was duly taken upon oath, I have the hon our to transmit herewith. It will be remarked that the evidence was conflicting as to some of the circumstances from which the connection of Mr. Balfe with the attempted personation was sought be inferred ; but Mr. Balfe having denied upon oath any participation in the attempt or knowledge of the intent to personate—a denial confirmed by the testimony of Giblin and by that of disinterested witnesses—l am of opinion that the charge against Mr. Balfe has not been sustained. Though rhave, satisfactorily to myself, arrived at this conclusion, I think it right to add that the circumstances proved before me were such as in my opinion to justify Mr. O'Douell and Mr. Tenison in originally demanding an inquiry, and in subsequently pressing for it, notwithstanding the explanation of Mr. Balfe in his letter to the Lord Chancellor of the 15th Dec., 1859, proved before me, in which some important statements referring to the immediate transaction were contradicted by the evidence. The state ments to which I allude are marked in italics, and the evidence disproving them I have noted in the margin. "T. DE MOLEYNS." THREAT TO MURDER,. A journeyman joiner, named Thoma s Cha m pi on , was charged at Sheffield on Saturday with threa tening to blow out the brains of his own wife, and of Mr. Fewsdale, builder. In December, 1858, Champion was tried at th e ass i zes a t Y or k for at tempted murder under these circumstances. He had been employed by Mr. Fewsdale as foreman, but owing to alleged tyrannical conduct on his part Mr. Fewsdale's men struck work, and refused to resume it under the control of Champion as fore man. Being engaged in the erection of a residence at Sheffield for the Duke of Norfolk, and the work being urgent, Mr. Fewsdale reluctantly submitted to the demand of the men, and reduced Champion to the position of an ordinary journeyman. The men then refused to work with Champion in any capacity, And Mr. Fewsdale was under the necessity of discharging him altogether. Exasperated by the proceedings of the men Champi on procure d a four-barrelled revolver, loaded with ball, went to Mr. Fewsdale's workshops in the Wicker with it, shot in the head a man named Grayson, and at tempted to shoot a second man, but was seized and disarmed. The bullet lodged in Grayson's head, and, after lingering for a long time in a very pre carious state, the poor fellow, contrary to all ex pectation, recovered so far as to be able to go about. Of this offence Champion was found guilty, and sentenced to be imprisoned for 12 months, the plea set up in his behalf being that he was maddened by the injustice of his fellow-workmen when he committed the crime. Mr. Fews , dale sympathised with Champion, and ren dered him great assistance on his trial. His wife having been under the necessity of selling all the furniture, &c., Fewsdale procured her a situation at the house of his son-in-law, Mr. Craven, during the incarceration of her husband. Champion's term of imprisonment expired on the 16th of De cember last, and on his return he called on Mr. Fewsdale to thank him for his kindness, and applied to him for work. Mr. Fewsdale declined to employ him again, telling him he had better go to a distant town. He made several subsequent applications for work, which, however, Mr. Fews dale refused. Owing to a domestic occurrence Mrs. Champion was unable to leave Mrs. Craven immediately on the return of her husband, but arrangements were made for setting her at liberty in a month. During the month Champion became very violent, and threatened that if she did not leave her situation at once and go to live with him he would shoot her. She became so alarmed that she dared not go to him, and on the 24th January he said to Mrs. Keyworth, his wife's sister. "It's yon chap Fewsdale, that is keeping her away; I will blow his brains out, and her 'a too." Mrs. Keyworth said Mr. Fewsdale had been his best friend. Champion replied, " He's been my biggest enemy ; that job in the Wicker was 13F.d enough, but the next will be 50 times wome." Mrs. Key worth was so alarmed that she g,ave in formation to Mr. Fewsdale, who, meeting Cl).am pion at the house of one of his workmen, n amed Wornack, on the 30th of January, said tc, him, "I understand you have got work." Champion replied in an excited manner, " You won't give me any." Mr. Fewsdale then said, " What do you mean by the threats you are indulging in ; if you have got anything on your mind speak out like a man ?" Champion rejoined, " The Wicker job was bad enough, but it will be ten times worse next time if I'm hung for it next day." A man named Corner deposed of having heard a further threat by Champion, to the effect that if his wife did not live with him, he - would make Mr. Fewsdale as "he would not reign long in the Wicker," and his (Champion's) ife so that "she would eat neither white bread nor brown." Champion wishing to call Wornack. as to what passed in his house, and Wornack being unwilling to attend, Champion was remanded. THE ANNEXATION OF SA VO Y TO FRANCE. A letter from Paris, dated Feb. 5, says :—Lord John Russell's statement on Thursday night, that there was no intention on the part of the Emperor of the French in July last to propose the annexa tion of Savoy to France, would be more satisfactory had some better authority than M. Walewski's been given for it. While M. Walewski exercised the ornamental functions of Minister, had interviews on fixed days with foreign agents, held receptions, lived in a palace, and had decorations from foreign Governments on the signing of postal, commercial, or politi2al treaties, or telegraphic conventions, he was still but little acquainted with the Imperial mind when matters of importance were in contem plation. It is known that M. Walewski was, even after the speech from the Throne on the opening of the French Chambers last year, apparently unaware of what was near at hand; and it may be doubted whether his disbelief that the Emperor meant to make war in Italy did not last very nearly to the day he was directed to ask the Legislative Corps for supplies of men and money for the campaign. 'Whether M. Thou venel will be so innocent rnd so unconscious a Minister time only can tell. When we are told that M. Walewski's remarks " were not explicit" when first asked about Savoy last summer, it was, perhaps, because it .was the first he had heard of it; and when suhiecinently he " assured_ -the Government—that , their . was no intention on the part of the Emperor of the French to propose the annexation in question," most probably M. Walewski only expressed what he believed to be the fact, or repeated what he had heard. Moreover, seven months have passed since then ; but if M. Walewski were not now one of the "ex's," and could repeat officially the same declara tion, we should still have doubts so long as we read the sharp lectures in the Patric to the address of our unruly protege Victor Emmanuel on the anti-sepa ratist movement in Savoy, and which the Paine would not venture to insert but on authority. I don't think, then, that those Savoyards who, to use the words of their owr address to the Governor," are resolved to remain free under the constitutional charter which the magnanimous Charles Albert gave to the nation," will be much comforted by Lord John Russell's "explanations." The Prohibitionists still keep up the fight. The bombardment of petitions is still going on, if not as intensely as at first, yet sufficiently to keep the be sieged en the alert. The petitions offer no variety ; the theme is still the same as that of the chandlers and lampmakers of Bastiat. An address from Mul house, signed by 19 masters, declares their adhesion to the great petition of the 20th ult., " Because we are convinced that so radical a reform of our Cus toms' laws would have disastrous consequences for the great number of our manufacturing establish ments, and ruin for ever the prosperity which our working population now enjoy." Eleven cotton spinners, ironmasters, tanners, and curriers of the canton of Massevaux (Haut-Rhin), adhere on the ground that the contemplated re form " would have the most disastrous consequences for our industry, the well-being of the working population and the country in general." Seven master cotton-spinners " do not doubt that your Majesty, whose high wisdom is proclaimed everywhere, will take into serious consideration the demands of the manufacturers as to the mea sures announced in your recent letter to the Minis ter of State, and that in the modifications you pur pose introducing in our Customs' system you will know how to reconcile the interests of the branches of industry which are to support the consequences with the well-being of the working classes for whose benefit they are meant, and that of the general prosperity." Moreover, the Chambers of Commerce of Amiens, Nancy, Falaise (Calvados), and Vire address peti tions to the Emperor in the same sense, and the Moniteur Induatriel contains two long articles headed " Conspiracy of Figures" and " Liberalism of Free Trade," of course against Reform. Free trade has acquired another defender in the Avenir Conanercial, a new weekly paper just esta blished under the able direction of M. T. N. Ber nard, one of the staff of the Sieele, and who will be powerfully supported by MM. Michel Chevalier, Woloweki, L. Reybaud, Joseph Gamier, Charles Dollfus, E. Horn (of the Debate), and other eminent political economists. The fist number of the Avenir appears today. Trade was dull last week both in Paris and in the departments. Public attention is almost exclusively occupied in considering the results likely to be pro duce& by the great measure of reform announced by the Emperor. In some quarters great hopes of prosperity are entertained, while in others the fears of the operatives seem verging towards a panic. The population of Lyons, Marseilles, Nantes, Havre, and Mulhouse are general in their approbation of the treaty with England, while the manufacturers of Lille, Rouen, Roubaix, and some manufacturing towns in the central departments of Franco continue to petition, to send deputations to Paris, and to organise a Protectionist agitation. THE STATE OF NA PL ES. A letter from Naples, January 28, says :—I had I scarcely time to translate and send off by my last letter the circular of the Director of Police, Signor Commendatore Ajossi. Of course, it was impos sible to make any observations on this extraor dinary document, nor do I know that it was neces sary ; still I may recur to two points in it, which establish simple suspicion of political feeling as ground sufficient for arrest, and the number of arrests made as a necessary proof of the zeal and fidelity of the Inteudenti of provinces. This cir• cular, I may observe, only gives in a written form what has long been the practice of the Govern ment of the Two Sicilies, and itself justifies the re presentations, called by ignorance or interest "exaggerations," which I •have sent you from time to time. It proves several points worth noting at the present moment, as, that the Government has no doubt of the excellence of its system ; that it is entirely opposed to all expression of opinion through the press or otherwise; and that, most important of all, there are no guarantees for security in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. By virtue of those words, "semplici sospeti," a man may be stopped in his morning's walk, as happens continually, and hurried off to the Prefecture. He may be wakened out of his slumbers at midnight, as hap - pens continually, and be compelled to finish his night as best he can in a dingy prison. He may be stopped at any time or anywhere, as happens con tinually, and have his pockets or any part of his per son searched, and his letters and papers taken to the first lamp and examined by one of the worthless scoundrels who consent for a wretched stipend to do the dirty work of their masters. There are ' numberless facts daily occurring which bear me out in my assertions, and some ridiculous enough; take the following as an instance. A man named Michele Puente is walking up the Toledo at night ; he has a sore throat, and is softening it by e ating away lie an orange, the peel of which he throws finds himself arrested all at once, and to say why he their hands, darmes with a load of orange p eel in is puzzled. In the meantime up come so me gen and give orders that the man s h a ll be released, as days, oaccordingr a they were not tricoloured objects which had been thrown about.

Commissary Mobillo would giVe-thenppeir ance of legality to his conduct. At the same time s , there are those who have been in detention for_ years who have never seen a judge, nor been asked. a question, and yet have been manacled like felons. As to any progressive measures, I see not the slightest twilight indicative of any. An extract from a letter from Messina, on the decree of thii 19th, sr- " - s of alterations in the law of the press, in that ,- 4ing municipal institutions, and coma . merc'-‘, l regard to the first, it has ne- , he wildest thoughts of Francis 11., and as to the two latter I believe that they have been used as decoy ducks, to deceive and pacify. At the same time that they were spoken of, a large amnesty was semi-officially promised, =krilll progress largely talked of, and the concession for completing the Taranto line of railway, that im practicable line (speaking of it as a speculation), was granted. Who ever hears of them now ? They were delusions, and intended to be so; the prisoners remain in confinement or exile, and re ceive additions to their numbers. Does the "Cir cular" I sent you harmonise with an amnesty? As for the municipalities, they remain as they were, and the commercial tariff is no longer spoken of. I can imagine the Government of the Two Sicilies saying, "Let us show at least the appearance of doing something, and let us attempt to conciliate John Bull. It is easily done if we talk about mate rial progress and a commercial tariff. After all, a little talk is all that is required, and if at the last moment it is necessary to do something, we can pars those measures and preserve our principles of 'government." I cannot even now explain the real causes of the panic which led to guards being placed in all the streets and in the roads outside the city a few days since. Some say that a report had been received _ that 12,000 muskets were to be introduced into the city and now Illear that the remains of the SWiss contingent in Avellino have shown symptoms of mutiny. It is excessively difficult to arrive at the real truth, but I believe it is the case that the Go vernment has violated its conditions with them—in one instance, I am told, by making them contribute a portion of their pay to the purchase of their uni f4rm ; and hence the reported discontent and, as somo say, dispersion of the Swiss. This seems to be the most probable way of accounting for the great apprehension which marked the arrange ments of the Government at the beginning of the week. Several regiments of cavalry in Caserta and elsewhere have been reviewed lately, and re ceived orders to be in readiness to march, while two regiments of infantry and a battalion stationed in Maddaloni and Caserta were actually on their route to the frontier when counter orders reached them at Santa Maria (Capua Althea). One regi ment, the 14th, remained there, and the others re turned with their baggage to their old quarters. It is impossible to explain these changes, except by sup posing that things are conducted here by a puerile caprice. lam told, indeed, on high authority, that the Government is fully sensible of the danger of interfering in favour of the Pope, but one other folly in addition to so many others would not be surprising. Not only apprehension, but divided counsels, exist in the Royal family, and tkeie is talk of some one retiring to Gaeta—at all events, servants are said to have left to polish the floors of the Palace, as if some one were expected. THE LIEUTENANCY OF THE CITY OF LONDON. Few public bodies, especially among those pos sessing taxing powers, are so little known to the public as the Court, or rather Commission of Lieu tenancy of the City of London, a body which trans acts its business with closed doors, and endea vours to veil its proceedings from general ob servation. Despite this strong disposition to privacy, we have, however, been able from time to time to report their proceedings ; and although a formal motion which was submitted to the court on Friday for opening their doors was negatived, we shall, no doubt, still be able to communicate to the public any business transacted which, either from its own nature, or the position of the parties most active in the transaction, may render it worthy of being noted as an item of general information. On Friday we were able to announce that the court resolved to recommend his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge to her Majesty as Colonel of the London Rifle Brigade, and we could, if inclined, have extended our report considerably. Thus we could have stated that the motion of Mr. Deputy Lloyd for throwing open the doors was lost by a majority of 17 to 8; that Lieut.-Col. Hicks applied for permission to form the London Rifle Brigade into two battalions of 800 men each, which ._ap plication was referred to a committee ; that Mr. Spottiswoode applied for permission to embody a troop of 80 of his own men, the consideration of which application was postponed ; and that Mr. Ambrose Mo. re. expressed himself indignantly to wards those individuals—members of the court or otherwise—through whose instrumentality the pro ceedings of the court were communicated to the reporters, and so made known to the public. As the commission has now formally refused to recog nise the right of publicity, and asserted its own right to be regarded as an irresponsible body—(al though there are people in the City of London who say that being taxed by the commission they have a right to a little talk, if they get nothing else for their money)—a glance at its constitution may not be without its interest. In fact, the Commission of Lieutenancy is a substitute for the Lord Lieute nancy of a county; in constitution it is beyond question the most respectable public body in the metropolis. How it assumed its present numerical importance is not exactly apparent ; but it was originally constituted under the 13 and 14 Chu. c. 3, s. 27, and was again the subject of Parlia ment enactment in the 1 Geo. IV., C. 100, s. 35 ; the general power given by these acts being identical with those conferred on lords-lieutenant of counties in connection with the militia or other such armed bodies as may be raised locally (apart from the regu lar army) in times of invasion, insurrection, or rebel lion, or other emergency. By the Act of Charles the Second the lieutenancy were required to raise yearly a one " month's share of i 70,000;" but by the Act of George the Fourth this power of taxation was limited to £4,666 per annum, to be levied equi tably upon the respective wards of the City. This power has not, however, been lately exercised to its full extent. The last tax levied by the commission —the tax itself being known as the "Trophy Tax," and intended to be appropriated to the militia, having been called fur in 1857 ; but the power is about to be again exercised, and a fresh trophy tax will be levied during the present year, after a state ment as to the expenditure of the last raised tax shall have been submitted to and examined by jibe. tices of the City in quarter sessions. In addition to this power of taxation, the power of appointing officers to the militia and volunteer forces virtually rests with the commission, but of course subject to the approval of the Sovereign. So far the powers of the commission. With regard to its constitution, it may be said to consist of about 250 members, each of whom, therefore, is the 0,250 th part of a lord lieutenant. The lord mayor, aldermen, reco r d er, fort town-clerk, common sergeant, and deputies _ thehe ir offices, being are commissioners by virtue of . s iffio !l c e e rst time the guished position.

The last commission issued in 1857, and it is expected that another will be issued during the present mayor alty. It is said to be an object of great ambition with many to be made the 250th part of a lord lieutenant, not for the emoluments, but for the " position" of the office, and that when a new com mission is issued the Lord Mayor is overwhelmed with applications from gentlemen desirous of being placed upon it.
