"Mr. Roup says that Mr. Wilson, the clerk in the office of the Surveyor-General in Salt Lake City, had fled for his life, and it was suppose i he bad taken refuge among the Indians of the Pelentee band. The office was left unprotecind, and pro bably may b e ransacked anti 'destroyed. Jesse Jones, who had been for some time one of the con ductors 13, , tween Magraw's mail train and .Indepen dence and Sslt Lake, went to Fort Bridger to look after some flour which Mr. Rota had purchas-d there. The Mormons arrested him, and when last seen they were taking him to Salt Lake in irons. A Frenoh mountaineer, just from Bridger, says that Jones bade him farewell, and told him he never expected to return. He bad heavy chains on his hands and feet. Jones is a brave, determined man, particularly hated by the Mormons for having de fied their power, and conducted from the t en i tory the .train th a t left 'there last spring with the Go vernment officers ' who were flying to escape death,.

WELLS, Lieutenant-General Commandir g Nauvoo Legion.' " " What impudence ! He says that Jonesreturned to the city without saying how. Mr. Simpson, waggon -master of the rear train, which was burnt on the Sandy, arrived in camp on the evening of the 7th. He reports that on the morning of the Gth his train was 'corraled' at the last crossing of the Big Sandy, about 5 miles from Green River ; that about 9 o'clock in the morning, just as he had sent his cattle into the hills for grass, a band of Mormons our rounded the train,'disarmed the men, burning up all but two of the waggons, with their contents ; these two waggons were saved through the firmness of Mr. Simpson, who insisted that they should leave provisions for his men to return to the States. After the burning of the train the teamsters were released and the Mormons went up the road. Simpson says that Lot Smith, who was in command of the party, had come to his camp while the train was on the Sweet Water, and remained all night, representing that he was from California on his way to the_States; that he had wintered in Salt Lake City. He cursed and -- the Mormons up and down, and when be went off begged provisions enough to last him to Laramie. In this way the Mormons have been collecting information about the trains all the summer. Smith said that the party under his command numbered 800 men; that they wore going back on the road to burn and de stroy every train from there to Laramie. He said that Livingston and Kinkead's train of 65 waggons was only 30 miles back, and that they would burn it up that night, and also that a special party had gone to capture Magraw, dead or alive." Another communication from the same correspon dent, dated the 28th October, says : "On the 10 t h i ns t., Mr. Perry, who has a train of merchandise en route for Salt Lake City came into camp from. below. He left a party of Magraw's train on the Sweet Water waiting for provisions. Morrell, the P.M., with his train, was with them. Mr. Ficklin, the agent of Magraw's, passed down and conveyed the news of the burning of the trains by the Mormons. The trains below will, therefore, be on their guard. Mr. Perry was accompanied by two men. They were stopped by the Mormons, and closely questioned, but finally suffered to pass on. " On the same day (the 10th inst.) an express from Brigham Young came into camp. They brought with them a full file of the Deseret News and other papers, with a note from Col. Alexander, saying that he sent them, hoping that in the ab sence of news from the States, they would tend to relieve the monotony of camp life. I learn that the object of the express was to make a proposal that the mail which is on the way should be delivered to Brigham's agent at the Territorial line, and let him carry it into the city. "On the 11th the whole command loft their camp and proceeded up Ham's Fork 19 miles. The grass had been burnt nearly all the way. We camped en a small spot which the fire had spared. George and Jefferson Hickman, brothers of Bill Hickman, came to the train while on its march this day, with a note from Bill to Mr. Perry, requesting an interview on Green River to settle some business matters which he had left in Hickman's hands for settlement when he was a merchant in Salt Lake city. After consulting with Mr. Perry, the commandant had them arrested as spies. •It stowed nearly all day, but melted as it fell. On the 12th we continued our march up Ham's Fork. After camping for the night we were surprised by the intelligence that the Mormons, under the lead of Lot Smith and Porter Rockwell, had taken some 800 head of cattle, being principally those that belonged to the trains lately burnt, together with a large numbe r • of beef cattle, w ithi n three miles of camp. The men in charge of the cattle were allowed to, come in. Bill-Hickman sent word by them that if his brothers were not released within five days he would scalp a dozen soldiers for it ; and Smith and Porter declared that if the command persisted in advancing they should all be slaughterd. "The prisoners were searched, and a belt was found on one of them which was identified as be longing to an artilleryman who had been missing for several days. The prisoners stated that the • man passed Fort Bridger on his way to Salt Lake, and there exchanged belts with him. " Oct. 15 . —Continued up Ham's Fork for the - last three days ; route very rough ; and camped about four miles below the California-road (Babbitt's Cut-off.) Yesterday Jefferson Hickman was released, and sent with an express to Brigham. An express was also sent to Col. Johnson, inform ing him of our movements. The advance party this morning nearly captured some Mormons, who were setting fire to the grass in this bottom. It has been decided to remain here until we receive some intelligence from Col. Johnson and the trains on the road. , ‘o ,._ _ p) . : , / C F 2 = rPßiox 4D. STAMPED s') when we have read of it in our quiet days. We have seen depths of sufferings which in our worst forebodings we never dreamt of. And we have also seen how in men and women of our own mould and acquaintanceship, our gossips and familiar friends, suddenly called on to die, or to act differ ently from their whole lives, our English nature has towered up to a fortitude, a self-devotion,, an endurance, a majesty of quiet and unshaken he roism, and, in many cases, a brightness and beauty of Christian grace, which lift the days in which they wrought or suffered above the ordinary level of our prosaic times. And after all, so swiftly has every thing passed that in the short six months from the first news of the revolt has come also the tidings of its utter ruin. Within those short six months have happened, not only the tragedies of Delhi and Cawnpore, and all those other frightful scenes which have made so many Indian towns words of horror in every English household, but Delhi has been hesieg, d, Delhi has resisted long and anxiously —at last Delhi has fallen. Cawupore has been in part avenged. Lucknow has been on the point of perishing; after a heroic but vain attempt to relieve it ; then, after another effort, it WAS reached by Outram and Havelock, only for them to be enclosed without escape in the fiery sea of insurrection; then again Lucknow has been reached, fought through, and its garrison met and set free. And yet these great events, on which the fate of India and the East, perhaps of England, were hanging, were but episodes in that display of courage, resource, strength, so gigantic in its thoirgli so diminutive in its tentres, and sources, and instruments, which hai extended over the *hole area of Hindostan, and subdued, pacified or made use of its millions of men. Yet all this happened within six short months. Those months have not been unimportant ones at home. But at home the interest, if le s acutelypain ful, has been less elevating and less cheering. It can hardly be said that the exertions of Government in England to save India have bean commensurate either with the greatneis of the object at stake or with the desperate daring and masterly skill dis played against fearful odds by Englishmen on the spot. Lord Palmerston and his Government were inclined to take things very easily at first ; and but for a suocess to which they did not contribute, they might now be, not without some j ustice, the victims of that indignation which flamed up so high at the Crimean disasters. But their delays, their want of appreciation of the magnitude of the crisis, their failure in resource to meet so terrific a peril, will, perhaps, be forgotten in the achievements of Sir J. Lawrence and Sir H. Havelock, and in the steady courage and untiring activity of Lord Cannin;. But it ought not to be forgotten that they have been tried and measured during the last few months. Much will have to be done for India of the utmost difficulty and importance, after the revolt shall have been quelled. Yet theirs are hardly the hands to whom we should like to see committed the grew task of reconstructing the system of Indian Govern Men t. Indee 1, at home the autumn has been in all its ending features rather a painful contrast to the rare beauty of the season itself. It has been a time of failures. There have been strange and remarkable failures of criminal justice in the detection of fright ful crimes. There has been a failure of our vaunted currency system. There has been a shameful break down and collapse of mercantile character in a number of establishments of vast credit and lofty pretensions, which have sunk, not from the ordinary losses of a crisis, but front the exposure of the fraud and gambling which formed their regular mode of business. Almost all our groat boasts have had their rebuke. Science, which has lately dared such gigantic attempts, and with somewhat overweening confidence, his had her share. Her‘monAer enter prises have had at least to wait. The telegraphic message has not yet flashed b:.‘neath the Atlantic. Tho Gre.it Eastern, after the misapplication of enormous mechanical power, and the squandering of money equivalent to a large fortune, is still un launched. Big Ben has to be recast. There is a ludicrous congruity in adding to the list of failures —Lord Palmerston's monster mortar. To us at home who havb sat still in security and ease, the retrospect of 1857 is not a very gratifying or satisfactory one. There is; indeed, a strong re lief to this ' • but we must look ab roa d f or it. W e must look for something to set against levity and feebleness in the Government, againstextravagance. boastfulness, and dishonesty in our domestic enter prises—we must look for the proofs that the nobler elements of our national character are yet strong and undecayed—to where danger and difficulty has elicited them abroad. There have not failed— whether in the wonderful display both of silent for titude and of resolution, helpfulness and the spirit of command, which has saved us India, or in the wise and loving enthusiasm with which the mis sionary has opened up new regions, and won to himself the wild wins of savage men—or where rough soldiers have shown the crowning and most touching glory of their discipline, when they stood on the deck of the burning Sarah Sands, as their comrades—alas, not so fortunate—h a d . done on that of the sinking Birkenhead, calmly and obe diently giving up their chance of life to the weak and' helpless, or plunging down, volunteer after volunteer, into the smoking hold to empty the powder magazine. It cannot be for nothing that we feel ourselves to be kith and kin with such men as these. And one effect the events of 1857 seem to have already produced at home. They have awakened in the country a sense of our re sponsibilities, not only as men, but in a most re markable—we had almost said unaccountable— manner, as Christians. The Indian revolt seems to have brought home to men's minds, with a vivid ness perfectly new to numbers, the difference be- j tween Christianity an d no Christianity • and to I have drawn forth f r o m s t ern men of action, hardened in the business of the world, bold and earnest expressions of their regret and shame at the cowardice, the disgrace, the mischi e f, o f th e indif ference which we have shown among the heathens of the East towards the religion which we professed, and which has now been proved by so many to be their strength and comfort. What there may be in this feeling, and how it is to be directed, are further questions ; but the feature itself is a very notice. able one in the public writing and public speaking of the time. And it is an encouraging one to mark the beginning of 1858. THE UNITED STATES' EXPEDITION TO UTAH. The special correspondent of the New York Times writing from "Gimp of the Army of Utah, Ham's Fork of Green River," on October 9, says : " The game is settled. Brigham Young has de cided the question that so many persons have so long speculated upon—that is, what the Mormons intended doing, and what would be the best policy for the Government to pursue with regard to them. Col. Alexander received to-day a copy of Brigham's proclamation, which he issued to the Mormons. " On the sth inst. the sth Infantry reached Black's Fork. On the way the guides found a trail of some 400 Mormons. The colonel sent back that night an express to Green River, to warn the trains of the danger. Early the next morning three teamsters arrived in camp, and reported that two trains of 58 waggons were burnt up. It seems the train reached the river the same day we left. In the night these three men were about three miles from the camp, herding the cattle, when they sud denly heard a great noise at the trains, and imme diately the waggons commenced burning. The The men immediately fled, leaving the cattle. . colonel felt very uneasy at this intelligence, but feared to send men to look after them. We reached the camp ot . the 10th Infantry and of Phelps's Battery of Artillery on the evening of the 6th. Captain Reno's Battery of Artillery overtook the 6th Infantry, and c ame up with it.

They had mules with them that belonged to I the rear train, and the probability is that it was burnt up first. The Mormons inquired particu larly about Ma , raw, and swore they wo u ld ca t c h and kill him. .'We tear that all the provision trains between this and the South Pass are destroyed, and that all the trains now on the road, and perhaps the Governor and other officers, will fall into the hands of the Mormons, for we are not apprised of ' there being but two companies of infantry between ' "Oct.

Tho Mormons no sooner Saw them than one of them fired, whereupon our party returned the fire, wounding one, and putting them all to flight, they no doubt supposing that our whole party were upon them.

Comparing Radetzky to Wellington, and placing him on a similar national pede tal, we pay the highest tribute to the de parted soldier th;tt Englishmen can pay to a fo reigner. To write the life of the late Field-Mar shal would be no less a task than to write the history'of Europe for the last 70 years. The present sketch must necessarily only bs an outline, with the figure of Radetzky in the foreground. Radetzky entered the Austrian army as Cornet in the 2d Cuirassiers, under General Caramelli, as far back as 1784. He was gazetted as Lieutenant in 1787, but his active military career did not com mence till 1788. Austria was at war with Turkey, and Lieutenant Radetzky first distinguished him self at the siege of Belgrade, which was entered by the Austrians on the 9th of October, the faubourgs having been taken by storm on the 30th of Sept., 1789. Europe was on the eve of great events. The French Revolution of 1789 broke out, which led to that great conflict in Europe, the scene of so much bloOdshed and glory, upon which the curtain fell at Waterloo. In 1793 Radetzky's regiment served against the French, and in 1795 as Adjutant to G en . B eau li eu, who commanded de Austrians in Italy, he met Napoleon, then in his 27th year, on the field of battle. At that time a Sardinian army was acting in concert with the Austrians, while Nelson swept the Mediterranean. The peace of Campo Formio was concluded on the 17th of August, 1796. This peace was little more than a truce. In 1799 the allied Powers again took the field against Napoleon. Austria sent an army o f 180,000 men into Italy. Radetzky, whose name had been honourably men tioned more than once, was appointed Adjutant to General Melas, with the rank of Major. At the battle of the Trebbia Radetzky had a horse shot under hint, and from the coolness and bravery he displayed on that occasion he was gazetted as Lieutenant-Colonel. On the 15th of August, 1799, Radetzky led the Austrian attack in the battle of Novi. This was one of the fiercest actions fought during the cam paign. It last e d f or 12 h ours, from Bin the morn ing till Bin the evening. At first the French were successful, led by Joubert, who fell mortally wounded, leaving behind him a reputation which still lives in the annals of his country. The battle terminated in a complete defeat of the French. In Baron Melas's despatches the name of Radetzky is again most honourably mentioned. After quoting the names of various officers who had distinguished themselves at the battle of Novi, Baron Melas says,—" I beg especially to bring to the noti ce of his ajesty for promotion, Lieutenant- Colonel Count Radetzky, the more so as I have had so many occasions of admiring his great bravery, decision, and unceasing zeal and activity ; t o -day it was he who arranged the columns for the attack, heading the men in person on various points, and contributing thereby considerably to the victory." The result of this campaign was that nearly the whole of Upper Italy fell into the hands of the Austrians. Napoleon returned from Egypt towards the end of 1799, and stood as First Consul at the head of the French Republic. He made proposals of peace. The allies were not duped by his proposals ; war was decided upon. Napoleon sent Moreau with an army of 140,000 men into Germany, and ap pointed Massena commander in-chief in Italy. Melas commanded the Austrians. 12,000 English were landed at Minorca, and Admiral Keith was ordered to Uockade Genoa. Napoleon joined the army in Italy in person in May. On the sth of June (1800) the sanguinary battle of Marengo was fought. Napoleon's star was again in the ascendant. Melas had two horses shot under him), and was wounded by a bullet in the arm. He was carried from the field under the impression that the battle was won. " This battle is lost," exclaimed Des saix to Napoleon ; " but there is time to win an other." A few moments later he fell mortally wounded. The battle of Marengo, which ended in a victory for the French, is one of the most san guinary on record. A truce was concluded on the 16th June. The Austrians had to hand over to the French the fortified places of Tortona, Alessandria, Turin, Milan, Pizzighettone, Arona, and Piacenza within four days, and within the month the towns Cuneo, Ceva, Savona, Genoa, and Urbane ; the Austrian troops were to evacute Piedmont, Liguria, Savoy, and Lombardy, and to withdraw beyond the Mincio. In other words, the whole of Northern Italy was handed over to the French. Radetsky, who greatly distinguished himself on the field of was appointed to the command of the M ArchdukeMarengo, was Albert's Cuirassiers. We will rapidly pass over the next 10 years of Radetzky's career. As a recompense for bis ser vices against the French during Napoleon's Ger manT campaign, he received the Order of Maria Theresa. Aft er th e p eac e of Luneville (1801— 1805) he enjoyed temporary repose. On the re newal of hostilities in 1805 we again find Radetzky on active service, with the rank of Major-General. The chief command was given to Archduke Charles of Austria. The battle of Austerlitz led to negotia tions ; on the 26th of December peace VMS con cluded at Presburg, and Radetzky, with the rank of Brigadier, enjoyed a few years' repose at Vienna. Hostilities were renewed in 1809, and Radetzky was appointed to the command of the avant-garde of the sth corps d'armee. Prussia was hurailiated at Jena and Friedland, and shortly afterwards Napoleon dated his despatches from the Palace of Schonbrunn. From the opening of the campaign on the Danube until the memorable battle of Aspern (21st and 22d of May)Radetzky was scarcely a day without fighting the enemy. During this campaign he was opposed by Napoleon, Davoust, Oudinot, Massena Molitor, Lefebvre, and Lannes. Vienna capitulat e d on the 13th of May. Then came the battle of Aspern. Six times was Aspern taken and re-taken on that day, and on the night between the 21st and 22d the sentinels of the hos tile armies were in sight of each other. On the 22d Napoleon beat a retreat. This was the first time he had been beaten in the open field, and the sensation was immense throughout Germany. Radetzky was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Field-Marshal in June, 1809. On the 4th, sth, and 6th of July following was fought the battle of Wagram. In that sanguinary contest Radetzky commanded the cavalry. He was rewarded with the colonelcy of the sth Hussars, and made Chief of the Staff. Peace was signed at Vienna on the 14th of October. In April, 1810, Radetzky was appointed Commander of the Military Order of I Maria Theresa. Inspired by the lays of Korner, and sick of French dominion, theyo ath of Germany rose in 1813. Austria joined. Napoleon offered Silesia as a bribe for n eu t ra li ty, which Metternich declined. He proposed a European Congre ss t o settle the affairs of Europe. It met at Prague, but led to no result. On the 12th of August Austria declared war against France. During the whole of the campaign which followed Radetzky acted as Chief of the Staff under the immediate orders of Prince Charles Schwarzenberg. After the battle of Kulm the Emperor of Russia presented Radetzky with the Order of St. Anne of the first class, and Schwarzenberg in his despat c h es attributes the vic tory mainly to Radetzky. The great battle of Leipsic (18th of October, 1813) sealed the fate of Napoleon in Germany. In this battle Radetzky, who commanded the Austrian cavalry, was wounded, but he took a very leading part in the campaign in France during the follow ing spring. On the 21st of March, 1814, Lieut. Field-Marshal Radetzky entered Paris, riding by the side of the Emperor Alexander of Russia, Frederick William of Prussia, and Prince Schwar zenberg. On the 20th of April Napoleon left for Elba, and on the 4th of May Louis XVIII. entered Paris. On the escape of Napoleon from Elba, Radetzky again took the field, but he was not pre sent at Waterloo. The peace of 1815, concluded at the Congress of Vienna, is a resting point in Radetzsky's career. We next find him combining administrative with military command in the Lombardo-Venetian territory, Enjoying in the highest degree the esteem of his Imperial master, whose successor, the pre sent Emperor, is indebted to him for the preserva tion of his Italian possessions. The first half of Radetzky's career was chiefly on the battle-field, and the second half, if we except the last few years of his honourable life, was equally stormy. In 1331 Radetzky was appointed Commander-in- Chief in Austrian Italy. In the intervening period he had resided partly at Vienna, partly in Hungary, where 1- 4 held the appointment of Inspector-Gene ral of the Army. In 1836 he received the baton of Field-Marshal. It is only those who have lived in Italy, more especially at Milan, the capital of Lombardy; who can fully understand the feeling the Lombards entertain towards Austria. It is one of sullen but intense hatred. Radetzky's office Was no sinecure. When Mastai Ferretti succeeded to the chair of St. Peter as Pius IX„ and initiated his rule by liberal reforms, a thrill of nationality ran, like the 'electric fluid, through Italy. This was in 1846. In the following year the movement was almost brought to a crisis by the Austrians placing a garrison in Ferrara. A " Guardia Ci vics," or National Guard, was formed in nearly every State, and then came, like a thunderbolt, the Revolution of 1848 at Paris. Revolution succeeded revolution. On the 17th of March (1848) the news of the events at Vienna reached Milan. On the same night the Archduke Rainier, the Viceroy, with his family, left Milan for Verona. On the next morning barricades were erected in every street of Milan ; the revolution had commenced. After 3 days' fighting Radetzky retired in good order to Verona. This is a sad chapter in the history of Italy. The descendants of t .e men who seven' times re pulsed Frederick Barbarossa, instead of acting hand and heart together against the common foe, lost the golden opportunity in frivolities, banquets, and speeches about It a li an liberty. Moreover, it seemed as if the galvanised corpse of Italy had suddenly become imbued with all the old feelings and fears of Guelph and Ghibelline, Bianchi and Neri. The Italian League, nevertheless, for a moment triumphed. The red, white, and green tricolour waved from the towers of every city, except Verona, Mantua, Legnano, and Peschiera. The number of Austrian troops at Radetzky's command at this period was about 75,000 men. This includes the garrisons of the fortresses. Austria was too much occupied at home to send reinforcements. Charles Albert declared himself, and on the 25th of March a Sardinian army crossed the Ticino in two columns. On the Bth of April he advanced against Radetzky. Skirmishing commenced on the 9th with the Austrian outposts at Goito, about six miles from Mantua. After some severe fighting, Charles Albert forced the passage, and Radetzky f e ll b ack, first on Mantua, then on erona. The Italians were elated with success ; reinforcements poured in from Tus cany, Rome, and Naples. Radetzky concentrated his main force at Verona, leaving a strong division at Pastrengo to keep open his communications with the Tyrol. Charles Albert resolved to attack this division. On the 23d he carried the heights, and the Austrians fell back beyond the Each. The Piedmon tese Monarch then gave battle. His army was about 45,000 strong, that of Radetzky 3 0,000, w ith Verona to fall back upon. On the 6th of May, Charles Albert gave orders to advance, and a general battle ensued. The Austrians were driven from St. Lucia. The resistance was, however, so firm that the Sar dinians had to fall back to the position they held in the morning. The present Emperor of Austria and his brother, the Archduke Albrecht, were pre sent at this engagement. The Lombards became alarmed. They had fancied that they could drive everything before them. A panic seized upon them. In vain did Charles Albert exhort them to be firm. A retreat was resolved upon.

On the 4th he was before ;Haan. Charles Albert endeavoured to defend the city. He met with no support. The town surrendered, and Radetzky entered in triumph on the 6th. The capitulation was honourable. The lives and pro perties of the citizens were to be respected, and the Sardinians were to evacuate Lombardy on the 7th. Venice alone held out. Garibaldi and some other desperate men, knowing they h a d no mercy to expect, crossed the Swiss frontier. The Italian revolution was not yet over. The internal state of Austria was deplorable. The Hungarian revolution broke out, and Vienna was in danger. The Turin Chambers petitioned Charles Albert to renew the war, and public feeling ran so high that, had he re fused, he would in all prolealulky have lost his crown. He sent a declaration of war to Radetzky at Milan. The result of the short but brilliant campaign which followed is too well known and too recent to need mentioning in detail here.

King Louis of Bavaria ordered his bust be placed - to in the Walhalla. Vienna presented him with the freedom of the city, which was conveyed to him by a deputation at Novara. Twenty-six other cities followed the example of the capital. Venice still heli out, but the news of Gor gey 's submission in Hungary, and the treaty of peace with Sardinia, concluded on the 14th of August, made the proud Queen of the Adriatic submit. On the 30th of August Radetzky made his solemn entry into the city of the Doges. An attempt at insurrection was made at Milan in February, 1853. Radetzky put it down with a hand of iron, and confiscated the property of those Lombards who had become Sardiuian subjects. This was not only unwise, but illegal. It nearly led to a new outbreak with Sardinia. All diplomatic relations between the two countries were interrupted. This obnoxious decree has at length been revoked. It is one of the acts of justice rendered by the youn c , a Emperor in his recent visit to Lombardy. The decree banishing the Swiss from L om b ardy h as also been justly censured. In his 90th year Radetzky still maintained a clear intellect. At the visit of the Emperor last year (1857) to Milan Radetzky, then n o l onger a bl e to mount his horse, tendered his resignation to his Imperial master on the plea of failing health. Hereupon the Emperor wrote him the following letter : " Dear ,Field-IVlarsbal Count Radetzky,—That strong feeling of duty and faithful devotion which, during a period of 72 years of service has afforded such a match. less example to the army, induced you on your arrival in my Lombardo-Venetian kingdom to represent with noble candour that your years weighed heavily on you, and to petition to be removed from your post as Com mander of the Army and Governor-General. " With the greatest regret I acced e to your request, but T do so only because your rtlease from such a great weight of business affords me the hope that you may far g perfect • a series of years, and in . health, enjoy a life which is so dear to me and so glorious. At the same time with this I issue orders concerning everything g relating to your future personal position. You will always be a heartily welcome guest in any of my castles, as well at Stra, Monza, and in the Ville Reale at Milan, as at Vienna, in the Burg, in the Palace in the Augarton, and at Hetzendorf. Your presence will afford me an opportunity of learning your wise views and of taking your approved counsel whenever it may be required. May you long live, loved and honoured by me and by all true Austrian heart', to serve my army as a living proof el its glory I Your reward for the eventful past you will find in the grateful remembrance of your Sove reign and in your own glorious reminiscences. "Milan, Feb. 28, 1857." "Firearms Joanna." At the same time he offered to give him the title and rank of a Prince of the Empire. This the old man, from family reasons, refused. At Venice Radetzky was waiting to receive the Emperor when he landed. He was so weak that he was compelled t ) witness the review from a carriage, much to his annoyance. The beautiful young Empress paid the attention of a daughter to the old soldier. The Emperor presented him with four beautiful ponies and a carriage, and the last days of his life have bees like a serene sunset after a stormy day. The accident which preceded his death occurred as fol lows :—The Countess Wallmod.eu had called to take leave of the Marshal, and when she was about to leave the room ho rose from his chair,' an I insisted upon accompanying her to the door. The Countess strongly protested against him doing so, and having made him resume his seat she hurried out of the room. It is presumed the gallant veteran had again risen from his seat. She was still iu the ante-room when she heard a heavy fall. On re turning she found Radetzky on the floor with a broken thigh. This sad accident doubtless some what shortened the remaining days of the Marshal. In consequence of his great age no attempt was made to set the bone, and with his mind still active Radetzky was now a prisoner on his couch. The universal sympathy expressed for, him on this occasion is the beat proof of the appreciation of his services in his own country, at the same time that it is the noblest tribute a people can pay to fellow citizens. A more loyal subject or a more gallant soldier never served the house of Hapsburg. Field-Marshal Radetzky died on the sth inst. at 8 o'clock in the morning. He had been suffering for some days from his chest, and though he may really be said to have died from old age, the more immediate cause of his demise was paralysis of the lungs. His illness was short ; the first bulletin was issued on the 30th of December, and, as already said, on the sth i ns t. th e b rave old Marshal breathed his last. In stature Radetzky was below the middle height, with broad shoulders and a clear piercing eye ; he possessed that peculiar attraction at'ributel to Frederick the Great and to Napoleon. Among a hundred officers, though simply dressed in a gray surtout, Radetzky would command the attention of all. The statue in bronze at the Great Exhibi tion of 1851 is an excellent likeness of him in his 86th year. Radetzky was married in 1797 to the Countess Fanny Strassoldo, by whom be had five sons and three daughters. Of these only one son and one daughter survive him. His son is a Staff officer in the Austrian service ; his daughter is married to Count Wenkheim. THE PAST YEAR. (From the Guardian.) It is with something like a sense of relief that we feel ourselves out of 1857. It would be better still if we could feel ourselves well rid of it. But its consequences will not disappear as fast as its months have gone, to be numbered with times past. Historically, a peculiarly English year—passing in a commonplace tenor over other nation', while fraught with the most unlooked-for and startling turns of fortune for England and the Eugliah race, and those millions out of the pale of Christendom who are dependent on the English race—the year 1857 marks the beginning of a new and difficult and critical period of our national existence. Athens after Salamis, Spain after the discovery of America, the United States after the Treaty of Independ ence, France in 1789 and 1848,-were scarcely more on the brink of a future full of the loftiest and most glorious promire, with the altei native, in cave of failure, in wisdom, energy, or honesty, of disgraceful and irreparable disaster, than we are now—the re-conquerors, through what narrow chances we hardly yet fully know, of an empire which we had nearly lost ; whose eyes are at last, though late, opened to the value of the most mag nificent of earthly heritages, which we ha I held for one hundred years without caring about its great ness. From this time England mutt begin to rule India with deeper interest, with a closer connection, with more direct influence. On the manner in which she acquits herself of her untried and perilous task will depend in no small degree her own domes tic fortunes. Our Indian empire has been hitherto a kind of tour de force on the part of a few brave and energetic men, on whom the nation at large looked oir with the careless admiration of specta tors. From henceforth the nation at large, through Ministers and Parliament, is to become directly responsible for India. We pass out of a year which has brought us to this without our being in the least prepared for it, with the feeling that we have passed through one of the most eventful years of our history. It is strange to remember bow tamely and without in terest it began. An Administration living on a questionable credit did not seem to have anything that it cared about to submit to discussion or to carry through Parliament. It had net much to propose, and that was proposed with little zeal and much vacillation, and there was not much more spirit or clear-sightedness in the criticism called forth. All was sleepy and flat till a debate arose on the proceedings at Canton. Then feeling, argu ment, resource, were called up and strained in earnest, and the struggle that followed was a re markable one. It was not one to make us proud of Parliamentary Government, or to inaugurate the year with credit. Never was there a clearer and more indefensible case against Ministers; never was the honour of th e country, i f i ts honour depends onjustice and fair dealing, more at stake ; never was a more remarkable and more earnest agree ment of opinion among the leaders and chiefs of every party in Parliament except ono ; never was there a debate where the victory in argument was so overwhelmingly triumphant. But Lord Pal merston, beaten!in debate and condemned in Parlia ment, appealed to the country; and a result followed as remarkable as the discussion which had occa sioned it. Without a policy, without promises, without measures, claimed alike by Liberals and Conservatives, Lord Palmerston was as signally victorious at the hustings as he had ignominiously succumbed in the debate. He even contrived to inflict personal punishment on some of the ablest and most popular Liberal chiefs, who had opposed his China policy, by excluding thorn for a time from Parliament. Never was there such a sin gular ostracism. And it was all;clone on the suppo sition that Lord Palmerston was a true represen tative of British pluck, or a trustworthy guardian of British honour. It was all done by an appeal to the coarsest, vulgarest, most unscrupulous, moat hollow instincts ofnational selfishnessandna.ionalboastful ness. Lord Palmerston's admirers, in speaking of his triumph in the spring, now drop the patriotism and the statesmanship of it, and celebrate its adroitness. Yes, adroit is the word ; there can be no dispute how adroit he showed himself. But when adroitness is the first virtue and chief stock in-trade of a favourite premier, it is difficult to avoid thinking of the days when there was no man to govern England except Sir Robert Walpole and Lord North. The results of Lord Palmerston's confirmation in power have been much on a par with the victory itself. The quarrel in which he involved us with China has dragged on ingloriously and fruitlessly, interrupted by more serious matters ; and the stoutest advocates of unscrupulous and high-handed force are beginning to be tired of a war once de clared to be imperatively necessary, and would be only too glad to have it off their hands. From domestic contests, in which the year seemed to be consuming itself—there was little to divert us but some remarkable crimes. In the steps of Sir John Dean Paul followed a series of criminals from the respectable classes—men whom any of us might have sat next to at dinner, and whose names appeared as munificent benefactors in the lists of charitable societies. There were various gradations of guilt, from the bold frauds of Robson and Leopold Redpath, to the dishonesties and cog- I mereial tricks of the Royal British Bank ' • but they were the crimes of persons wh om we h a d not been wont to see in such a character before the public—of persons, too, who as a body had lately held themselves up as foils and rebukes to the bunglers and defaulters of the public service. In the midst of all this came the first telegraphic mes sage from Meerut. We seemed to have lived many years, instead of only the last six months of the year of the Chinese debate and the general elt ction, since that message woke up the whole country to a sense of the horrors of an Indian revolt. For since then we have gone through a trial such as no civi lised nation had gone through since the settlement of Europe. Other nations had gone through bloody wars and bloody revolutions. It was reserved for us to see within our own borders a bate and a revenge against us such as that which Mithridates roused against the Romans in Asia, or the Saxons wreaked upon the Danes on St. Brice's Day. W e have ourselves passed through one of those terrible accesses of the thirst for wholesale vengeance which, a short time ago, we should have thought impossible in days like ours. We have seen something of the old Heathen fashion of warfare, and we have our selves felt something of that enth us i asm of retribu tion which has often seemed so unintelligible to us ~i //. •
