The papers are writ ten for the most part by close and trained observers, keenly alive to all the strange expe riences and possible surprises of the ice-world, and able to record them with truthfulness and force. Many ' of the writers are known as well-trained Alpine explorers, and for merly published accounts of scientific and personal inte rest. A quiet simplicity runs through most of these narra tives of remarkable daring. which adds greatly to the pleasure of reading them. Switzerland hardly wants any additional attraction to Eng lishmen. But we shall be sur prised if these papers do not largely increase this summer the number of candidates qua lifying themselves for becom ing worthy of belonging ,- to the Alpine Club."—Guardian. s, accompanied by a Table of Ly be had separately, price 3s 6d. 13, Longman, and Roberts. " This collection of narra tives is of the highest interest. Independently of the personal interest of many of the adven ' tnres the excursions show how lunch has been left of the actual geography . of the Alpine ranges, even in their best-known portions, to be filled up and ascertained by English volunteers who go there for their annual holiday. Mont Blanc itself is not even yet thoroughly explored ; but the members of the Alpine Club have contributed to cor rect its map, and point out where they hope to complete it still further. Even on the spot, the Englishman fresh from his chambers in the Tem ple or his count: y curacy, is looked on as the pioneer of new routes and discoverer of new passes by 'the hunters' guides, and smugglers of the * * The EIGHT Swiss MAI the Heights of Mountains, ma London : Longman, Creel THE DEFENCES OF THE COUNTRY.

ON ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE IN HEALTH AND DISEASE. -• ------- Just Published, price is., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps, SECOND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NE RVOUS FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi- [inner of twenty years' standing. Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a condition little short of total prostration, then by the action of Electricity, imparting certainty and efticacy to medical treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE.

Although the attendance of general company was yesterday comparatively 'me T atr e e,the gathering to daya exorbitantnd Chi c h este scaler ef were eb compelledcharges s for la to abandon Hymen Nofo p a at Draytonsbenpassengers, e r s, was still more scanty' braveand ac deservet ing on the the p f o a e r t e , their n f e ein a u b t t the r maxim of any belated wight, whom they would bear off in n triumph terms. and The proceedings c o v e na social, but o n his i s own not ina quadrupedal sense, were emphatically " slow," and the character of the competitors was not of an order to render their performances important, or to excite more than a transient interest amongst genuine racing men. The Americans have proved the truth of the saying of the man down South, who averred that British horses could lick creation, but that theirs could lick the British. Mr. Ten Broeck brought from America a stud of half -a dozen horses. Prioress, in her second year in Eng land, after running in such a manner as to make all people believe that she would not be able to win a saddle and bridle at Barnet fair, carried off our principal handicap, and nearly repeated her achievement a second year in succession. Now we have to record the victory of another American importation, Starke, who until to-day had never shown racing ability worthy of conside ration, but who comes and upsets the calculations of our shrewdest turf tacticians, by winning a race which the owners of English horses have for months been planning and scheming to obtain. Mr. Ten Rroeck has beaten some of our best judges, literally with their own weapons ; he has sold them his horses and bought theirs, matched them, and come through in triumph. He has ridden a race against one of our most skilful amateur jockeys, and beaten him; has pitted his judgment against that of Englishmen, whose racing experience dates from their youth, and he has now beaten them. Mr. Ten Broeck made no secret of the confidence which he placed in his horse, and scarcely a man in the ring " missed laying," and that success, although attained by an " outsider," did not give the bookmakers a turn. The racing which preceded and followed the Stakes presented no incident for comment. The day was bright and sunny. - The Cowdray Stakes of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 60 added, for two-yr-olds and upwards. The winner to be sold for 150 sovs, if demanded, &c. T.Y.C. 9 subs. Mr. W.

The horses got . away on the first attempt, Woodburn, who was started to mako running for Starke, going off with the lead, followed by Tocher, Melissa, Queen Bess, Heiress, and Compromise, nearly in . the order named, and pretty well laid, Queenstown and Gouvieux whipping in. They passed the Stand without any material alteration, but on nearing the turn out of the straight, Woodburn in creased his lead, and in pursuit of him, at clear intervals, were Tocher, Melissa, Ethiopian, and Heiress. About six lengths behind them came Gaspard, with Blue Jacket, Fern dale, and Compromise at his heels, Queenstown and Gou vieux being still last. After rounding the clump, Melissa drew into the third place, and the lot were, in pretty close order .80011 after coming into sight, with the exception of Queenstown and -Gouvieux, who were now hopelessly beaten. As they ascended the hill Melissa took 'up the running, followed by Tocher, Starke, and Heiress, Lifeboat, who had been lying off in the ruck, now joining the leading horses. After making the last turn, and on coming down the hill, Melissa's leg gave way, and she dropped into the rear, leaving Blpa Jacket with the lead, Starke tecond, in close attendance Upon him, Lifeboat, Heiress, and Gaspard next. At the distance, Starke took up the running, and Lifeboat passed Blue Jacket at the enclosure, challenged " the American," but failed to get up, and was, after a fine race, beaten by half a length, Blue Jacket being six lengths from the second; Heiress was fourth, beaten off, Compro mise was fifth, and Gaspard sixth, close up with Heiress. Heading the next lot, all pulling up, were Miss Cath and Gouvieux. The others did not pass the post. Melissa was dismounted before reaching the stand, and far behind her came Woodburn, trotting in.

Betting-5 to 2 agst Antonio, 4to 1 agst Spicebox, 10 to 1 agst any other offered. Antonio came through, Spicebox, Queen Charlotte, and Penalty being next all the way; the race was scarcely ever, in doubt, Antonio winning by six lengths; bad third; Penalty was fourth, and Plumper fifth, the lot pulling up as they passed the post. On assembling at the post Lady Bird and Concertina colt broke away and ran to the stand before they were stopped ; - the latter did not get back in time to start. Handicap Plate of 100 soya.

THE NATIONAL DEFENCES. (From the Tittles) When the master of many legions condescends to argue he must receive respectful attention and a well considered reply. He proposes to convince instead of to compel; he subjects himself to the common laws of ratiocination, and he invites the world to deal with him as it might with an adversary who has no weapon but the pen. Of course we should, under all circumstances, yield him every courtesy and an unprejudiced ear. But never were we English more anxious to believe and more inclined to be even credulous than we are upon the topic which has last been handled by the Imperial pen. Quiet enjoyment, domestic peace, freedom from taxation, security in our business transactions with each other and with the rest of the world, are all involved in the conviction 'which the Moniteur of Tuesday last would fix upon our minds. If we could only believe that our faithful ally and his loyal subjects are not restless and inclined to war, how much better it would be for us ! If we could reasonably think that national defences are things that England cannot in any probable conjuncture need, how much more happy we should be in our shops and our counting-houses, and our snug villas and our unfortified country seats ! It is not willingly nor with any pleasurable emotion that we from time to time recall the bold suggestion of a late reverend wit, and shudder at the possibility of some mature matron in whom we may take an interest being led away captive by an amorous Gaul. It is not from having nothing else to thing of that we are sometimes surprised by the uneasy thought that we are sleeping with all our doors unlocked although a robbery was committed in the same streets only a few nights ago. If we could only feel that it is beyond the bounds of probability that there can ever be aught but an interchange of kindly offices between us and France we should have none of these disquietudes. We might browse together and grow fat, we might lie down and chew the cud together and ruminate into sleekness. Nothing can be more to our interest and to our comfort than to be thoroughly convinced that we have nothing to fear from France or from her master. To the French Emperor, therefore, preaching in the .3ioni teur, if we cannot say " Vous prechez mix convertis," we can at least affirm that he preaehes to a congre gation most anxious to become his converts. But confidence—as Lord Chatham said in a famous speech, and with a confusion of metaphor not uncommon with that great orator—is a plant of slow growth in an aged bosom. Old England scarcely expects to be desired for her beaux yeux alone. To absolute monarchs, who love not the licence of her free tongue, her trinkets may be rea sr Aonably supposed to lie more attractive than her beauty ; and great military authorities may be imagined sometimes to sympathise with the late lamented Field Marshal Blucher, whose sole re mark upon the glories of the London streets was, —" Mein Gott, what a town for to sack !" Wealth always carries with it a certain sense of distrust, and wealth conjoined with a consciousness of weak ness is apt to breed a sense of constant danger. To avoid this we must become either poor or strong,— that is to say, strong enough to resist any reason ably probable danger. Our good ally, through his official organ, invites us to believe that this danger is absolutely of our own invention. He says that " the pretended exaggeration of his armaments is made to serve as a justification for the considera ble augmentation of the Army and Navy Esti mates of Great Britain." The Emperor then proceeds to show that during the present year England is about to spend much more for her Army and Navy ' than France is about to spend, and suggests the conclusion that inas much as he is making no increase upon his annual expenditure for soldiers and sailors, our increase cannot be justified by any con siderations of his proceedings. Alas ! that an argument launched with so benevolent a design should be so weak to do its office ! If we lack the faith to say " Credo quia impossible," we cannot, in common sense, affect to be comforted by this faulty reasoning. Any Oxford under-graduate could point out and name the special fault of this halt ing syllogism. The question is not a question of estimates, nor even of cost. Constitutional Govern ments must act by persuasion, and the instrument to persuasion is money. What sum can we put against the conscription ? How are we to estimate in money the powers possessed by the French Em peror and forbidden to our Queen ? To judge of the question thus proposed we must look, not at the money spent, but the results obtained. The French have an army of 400,000 men, ready for any enterprise. We have an army of 110,000 ready for no enterprise except to defend our own homesteads. This is a not unimportant fact, but we do not rest upon it as any reason for suspicion. France is surrounded by great military monarchies ; it is natural for her to be strong in a land force, and the mere circumstance of her maintaining herself at a point of strength sufficient to repel either .a single or a combined attack from her military neighbours should be no necessary , cause of jealousy to us. Loyal and unsuspecting in friendship—as England is while England can be,—we are rather pleased than chagrined to see France powerful. While we act together as the guardians of order and the friends of civilisation, her power is our power, and her prosperity is our strength. But what mean these sounds of naval preparation ? Why are these ships so rapidly launched, and so hurriedly fitted with rifled cannon ? Why are the dockyards of France so busy, and the arsenals working with such sustained energy ? The exigencies which compel Prance to keep up a land force disproportionate to that of England compel England to keep up a naval force disproportionate to that of France. England maintains her existence upon conditions ;which to France are unknown. This little island is but the heart of our great empire. Our power must pulsate in every quarter of the world, or the empire must die. It is by our ships that our volition passes to the members of ou r bod y p oli tic , and it is to us a chronic necessity that great fleets should be always occupied at a distance from our shores. As com parefl. with France, our Navy can only be estimated by our Channel Fleet. What does France want with a fleet greater than that which England has at home ? hare been told, and sometimes in official documents, that the honour of France re quires a great naval armament, not to control Austria, not to hold her own upon the waters with Russia, not to curb the turbulence of Spain, not to reach distant America—but to contest with Eng land the sovereignty of the seas. What does this phrase mean ? It is not the language of c onfidence and friendship ; it is not even the language of truth. England neither has nor claims the sovereignty of the seas. She is obliged to make felt, in distant parts by means of her ships, that power which France manifests in less distant parts by means of her armies. But she claims only for herself what she willingly accords to all the world--equality and security. What country suspects England, who has opened her ports and her commerce to all nations, of any desire to force the ships of other countries from the seas, or to interfere in any way except for the protection of the common rights of civilisation? This sovereignty of the seas is much mere a nightmare than any dis quieting thoughts of invasion of this island. All our acts in China, all our legislation at home, deny more forcibly than any phrases could deny any such pretensions on our part, or any wish to acquire ground for.such pretensions. Again, then, we ask, what mean these sounds of hammering, these for tified harbours, these aggravated naval armaments? *Mr. Hans husk, whe, has laboriously compiled the statistics of " the Navies of the World," in his re cent book under• this title, tells us that he speaks of the French Navy from actual inspection, and enumerates its force at 449 vessels, whereof 265 are steamships of war, carrying 5,500 guns. Surely we may ask without an impertinent curiosity what need there is that this mighfy armament should-be at this moment thought so insufficient that ener getic measures are required to reinforce it ? If we except England and America, it could destrOy all the fleets of the world combined. Concentrated for any purpose of offence to England, she has nothing to oppose to it at short notice but her Channel Fleet, That French fieet,.so vastly supe rior to ours, is a great menace. The Emperor may intend for it nothing but the most peaceful or the most distant labours; while he assures us that this is so we are bound to believe, as far as we can, that the fact is as he affirms it. It is nothing to say that if all the ships of the English navy were collected in the channel we could match this great fleet ; it would be as apposite to say that if Gibraltar were at Portsmouth we should need no further fortifications at that place. The fleets of England never can be all at home, and any Calcula tion of any equality - of naval force between Eng land and France must necessarily exclude all that part of the English Navy which must now, and at all times, be present in our distant possessions. These are the facts. Not only has France at full command, and within 25 miles of our shores, 400,000 men, with the African Zouaves and Turcos within hail, but she is also straining every nerve to create a fleet which, if brought to bear upon our home waters at an unexpected moment, would enable her to throw a large portion of this great land force upon our shores. We humbly submit to our powerful neighbour that these are circum stances which are calculated to inspire some dis quietude even in the most trusting minds. We can not think that the , statement in the Moniteur, to the effect that the preparations of France have not been the occasion of our increased armaments and our increased taxation, is borne out by the facts which we have now submitted. Of course it is with much hesitation that we venture to controvert an article proceeding from such high authority. It is hard not to be allowed even to doubt, but we have correctly stated our positien, and we have only to believe absolutely, and to take our mea sures for additional precaution with all reasonable promptitude. • In another column we print a letter from Lord John Russell's Secretary, stating that we were in correct in our report of that portion of his lordship's speech wherein he was understood to have stated. that he considered the condition of the Treaty of Villafranca to be just." Under the pressure of this denial we have, of course, nothing to dispute, and nothing to reiterate. Whatever may have been the words which Lord John Russell used upon this occasion, we are content to know that, upon reflection, the Foreign Minister of England has not advisedly committed himself to any favourable opinion of the Treaty which has handed over Italy to Austria, and has committed the lives and for tunes of the Tuscans and Modenese to the tender mercies of the Sovereigns whom they expelled from their capitals. We will not speculate whether the words we have attributed to Lord John were actually spoken, although spoken inadvertently, and not intended to bear the meaning which when produced in print they undoubtedly conveyed. We are quite satisfied to bear the blame, in considera tion of being assured that our Foreign Secretary has not committed the folly of identifying England with that treaty:— Times. ELECTIONEERING VIRTUE! (From the Times.) We are not among those who despai r o f thi s country. We see in it natural elements of strength that may defy any enemy from without or traitor within. It is not the Army that we trust, or the Navy, or the Departments, or the Government altogether, or the nobility, or the middle classes, or the yeomanry, or the peasantry, or the religious, or the patriotic, or the national feeling, or Norman pride or Saxon independence, or public opinion, or gentlemanly feeling, or anything usually supposed to constitute the real pluck of the old British lion. All these grand qualities are so alloyed and dis guisedthat we would rather leave to more partial pens the task of proving their influence. We point triumphantly, not to the ships which are at Ports mouth, and the fortifications which are not at Woolwich ; not to Rifle Corps which are not any where that we know of, nor to Armstrong guns, which are not yet made; but to the strongholds of British corruption—Ashburton, and Wakefield, and Huddersfield, and Dartmouth. Is not it fairy land ? Is not it Prince Arthur and Merlin over again ? Show us a country where such candidates, such agents, such electors, suc h e l ec t ors ' w i ves , are things of every day occurrence, and we will show you one that may defy all the world. The men who will throw untold notes and sovereigns into an open drawer in a committee-room,where all sorts of people are coming and going, helping themselvs, stuffing notes into envelopes, and filling their pockets with sovereigns as a schoolboy does with nuts, just for the pleasure of tacking " M.P." to their names for a couple of years, won't sneak out of the way in the event of an invasion. They will throw them selves into the gap, as they do into the front parlour of a publichouse, when they know the doings going on in the back parlour. They won't count their money or the drops of life blood. Be the way smooth or rough, they will go through it ; be the obstacle moral or physical, they will go slap at it. Perhaps it will seem even more of a para dox to express much reliance on the patriotism of the gentlemen, sometimes with various names, who are always appearing at a pinch to release one elector from a creditor, another from a bill of sale, another from his landlord ; but let it be considered that human affairs want ready instruments, and here they are ready enough, in all conscience. But observe, on the one side, the plausibie exterior, on the other the nervous reality. The plausible exte rior is the " appeal to the country," the virtues of a £lO househoulder, the solemn decision of Ashbur ton, or Wakefield, or Dartmouth, or Huddersfield, and the official auditor's return of Election Ex penses—say, £53 is. 21d. This is the outside. This is the British Constitution as it appears in books, and as it supplies a model to all nations, and as it forms the basis for continual im provement. The nervous reality is the notorious understanding that at any one of these places last April an elector might by judicious manage ment obtain for his vote at least £5O. To which p of these shall we trust the defence of the island . We are ashamed to write it, but the truth must be spoken •,• we would rather trust our livestoth a eS d e political desperadoes, buying and sellingthe votes, n committing all sorts of offences against Consti tution, than to the 'enlightened gentlemen wish.the ballot-box to be the only mediu m between who . i eians se o teear be have stern an Englishman's heart and the House of o c f omhinci Commons. ein It is true that these characters see two of these cases, and we are politicians. unfortunately deprived of two enlightened and inexorable committeespassed s.

It looked almost like a Pro vidential interpositiOn. Mr. Leeman was, as he ' believed, the victim of persecution, and was now proscribed for a paltry hundred or so. An angel was at hand ready to. give a check for the amount, and restore Mr. Leeman once more to society. _ It required some little management. He might vote, 'and not pay his creditor ; or the creditor might be paid, and the debtor not vote. But the proper ceremonialwas hit on ; the c h eque r was handed over to the delighted creditor, Mr. Lee- ' man - gave his vote, and Mr. Astell became the honoured representative of Ashburton. Who can scrutinize the ineaus when the results are so good? Wakefield wants this unity of plot, but makes up for it in grandeur of operations. If we are to judge from the few cases gone into, the two candidates must have spent at least £20,000 in trying which , could most corrupt a constituency of near a thou sand. If anybody wants a fairy godmother, Alad din's lamp, Fortunatus's cap, Sinbad's diamonds, or any other pleasant thing he •has ever read of, let him go to Wakefield, take a small house in a by street, do nothing, get into diffieulties, and be slightly indifferent to his reputation. Long before the next election, a stranger, or somebody he has just seen, will enter his house, and show the most unexpected interest in - his affairs. The stranger will ask . whether he has a son to put out in life, whether he is 'himself a man of a grateful and gener ous temper, how he stands at the corner shop and the loan society. Should he show any surprise or look awkward, the stranger *ill request an intro duction to his wife, who, strange to say, will exhibit a much greater capacity ' for business than her dull husband. She will want £3O or £5O; for what, Heaven knows. She will ask to see the money paid r and, if she carries her point, it will be laid on the table, and she will pocket it, just returning an odd sove re.n. for- luck to- the bearer. If it i s l e f t to the husband, besides being defrauded of his full per quisite;he commits the egregious folly of putting his name to a promissory note, which, however, if . he takes his wife's advice, he will not pay much attention to. If his wife has all the wisdom of her sex, after taking the .00 and leaving the bit of paper in its place, the husband will satisfy his con science by voting clean contrary to • the purpose of the transaction, and then communicate all these in terestin,g facts to Nun Election Committee. It is impossible to say how much he will meet from both sides by this management,- besides the credit to himself and glory to the borough of Wakefield. As for the politics of these two towns, we had almost forgotten them. However, to give them their due, it is evident that both Ashburton and Wakefield are naturally and spontaneously Conservative. It is painfully evident that it is only by bribery that they can become Liberal. As, in our humble opi nion, it is for the public good that they should re turn Liberal members, we are driven to the con clusion that they must be either bribed or done away with altogether. At present we seem to want men of action rather than political parity ; su, shocking as it is; we incline to the opinion that these boroughs —we forget how many there are— had better remain for the present marketable com modities. If they are not to be so, how is Mr. I3right to have a Parliamentary following ? LORD JOjINRUSSELL'S PRUSSIAN DESPATCH. Yesterday was issued with the Parliamentary papers a copy of the despatch of the 22d ultimo from Lord John Russell to Lord Bloomfield. A translation of it was published in all the English newspapers a few days ago, and, having been obtained in a very roundabout way, was spoken of by the Foreign Minister in the House of Commons as containing inaccuracies. The original is as follows : Foreign-office, June 22, My Lord,—Her Majesty "Government observes, with, great concern, a disposition in Germany to take part in the war which, has broken out between France and Sardinia on the one side and Austria on the other. Upon the temperate and enlightened conduct of Prussia depends, in a great measure, the solution of the question whether the present war shall be confined within the limits of Italy, or whether it shall be extended to the whole of Germany, and, perhaps, to other parts of Europe. The Emperor NaTpolemi has declared that helms no intention of attacking Germany. It is hoped and believed that the Prince Regent of Prussia will not become a party to an attack upon France. But it has been argued that Germany, though not assailed directly, is assailed indirectly; that if she takes no part in the war upon the Po, she may soon have to defend herself on the Rhine ; that the fortresses of Austria on the Mincio and the Adige are, in fact, the barriers of Germany against France. There is much loose and unproved assertion in this statement. It cannot be denied that the war between Aus tria and Sardinia is a war arsing (perhaps inevi tably) frem the condition of. Italy. For a long period after 1815, Austria exercised a virtual supremacy over the States of Italy ; of late years Sardinia has favoured and fostered the Italian pas sion for independence. Count Bud, when asked by Lord Augustus Loftus to give an assurance that in no case would Austria move a soldier across the frontier in Italy without previous concert with France, replied in these terms .—" No ; I cannot give you that assur ance, for it would be a surrender of our sovereign power. We shall not interfere in any State unless our aid is asked for, an?. in that case it will be granted, and the knowledge that it will be granted is the best preservative of order." Thus Austria would not recede from her claim of a right of interference, when asked for, nor Sardinia renounce her pretensions to represent the sorrows and aspirations of Italy. But, unable to carry on such a contest alone; the King of Sardinia has asked and obtained the aid of the Emperor of the French. We are not now speaking of the immediate origin of the war: my predecessor has fully explained the views of her Majesty upon this subject. It is plain t however, from the statement I have made, that cause of war existed in the opposlt?, pretensions of Austria and Sardinia. It is with no view to Germany that this war has arisen. The assertion that France, successful on the Po and on the Brenta, will become aggressive on the Rhine is an arbitrary assumption ; but the mighty question of involving the continent in war ought not to be decided on the ground of vague supposi tions and exaggerated apprehensions. Neither can it be argued that the fortresses on the Mincio and the Adige are the barriers of Ger many. . _ It must be borne in mind that the fortresses of Peschiera, Verona, and Mantua formed no part of the ancient confines of Germany ; on the contrary, the country from Verona to the Adriatic formed, in 1792, part of a weak, unwarlike, and decaying Italian state. The utmost that can be said is, that while many Germans consider these fortresses as a barrier for Germany, many Italians consider them as not a little menacing for Italy. The treaty of peace must decide their future fate. While these reasons for war on the part of Ger man states are manifestly insufficient, they a re strong arguments against a course so precipitate. The Prince Regent of Prussia will, in his wisdom, weigh the impolicy of exposing his country to be considered the champion of the mal-administration of Italy. It cannot be necessary for the security of Berlin and Magdeburg that misgovernment should prevail at Milan and Bologna. But in the minds of the Italians, Prussia, appearing in arms by the side of Austria, would be considered the de fender of all that Austria has done, and all she has permitted. There is another consideration of the utmost im portance. Hitherto there has been little excite ment on the subject of the war in France. When the question of superiority in the field has been decided, the two great powers engaged will probably be very willing to put an end to the ex hausting struggle. But if France is roused to the defence of h er own territory bar the agg ression of Germany, it i s i mposs ibl e to say to w hat degree gre the passion s o f a na ti ona l an i mos it y may b in flamed, no r f or h ow l ong a p er i o d the continent of Europe may su ff er the calamities of war. e You have been duly informed of the determina tion of her Majesty, supported by , the unanimous sanse of her people, to maintain a strict neutrality. * Her Majesty has kept this cour : try free from all engagements which might restrain h er f ree d om o f Siajesty's Government as the circumstances of Germany will permit. A. as nearly similar t a h c a ti t on.lt is Prussia t w h i e ll h a o d p e e p o t f a he e r e , urse ti f m come, perhaps very ( when the voice o oNverk; will be heard with effect, and argumerats in fa vow- of peace will conciliatory emay and frien i ll y p be no longer unavailing, You will read this despatch to Ba rn n S c hletaitz, and give him a copy., —I am, & c ., (Signed) .T.
