Senor Figuerola, a Progressist, has returned to the post of Minister of the Finances, in the place of a Unionist, Senor Ardanaz. A Democrat, Senor Martos, has taken the portfolio of Foreign Affairs, instead of Silvela, a Unionist. The only Unionist remaining in the Cabinet is Admiral Topetc, the Progremists and Democrats dividin g the honours between them. rho candidature of the Duke of Genoa seems to obtain the majority of the suffrages. His party, it is said, is on the increase each day, and some schemes are being arranged in regard for the future, Marshal Serrano, it is presumed, lacing willing to remain Regent until the Duke attains his majority. General Prim is convinced that he can carry the Duke's election, and it appears that 141 deputies have agreed to vote for him. There are only 63 against him, exclusive of the Republicans, The King of Italy has been requested to put aside all the propositicns that the Spanish Cortes may make to him.

MOSE I.Y, the Dentist by special appoint ment, 312, REGENT-STREET, exactly opposite the Royal Polytechnic. Established 1820. This, the most perfected system of painless dentistry, originated and invented by Mr. R. L. Mosely, is r- commended by the Hospitals and adopted by the profession as one of the greatest improve ments of the age for the alleviation of pain and restoration of the natural functions, can solely be obtained in such perfected success (the result of forty years' practical ex perience) at his only residence, 312, Regent-street. The superlative excellence of this system is perfect immunity from pain, no operations, stumps, and decayed teeth ren dered useful, loose teeth and tender gums protected. Qualities : These teeth never change colour or decay—in fit unerring—ease and comfort unsurpassed—detection impossible—the facial anatomy faithfully studied and youthful appearance restored—mastication and articulation guaranteed. The " Times" of March 6 says :—"So good an imitation becomes the next best thing to the original." Teeth from 55.; sets, 5 to 30 guineas.

(Established by Charter of his Majesty George the First), For SEA, FIRE, LIFE, and ANNUITIES. Offices—ROYAL EXCHANGE, London. Branch Office-29, Pall Mall, S.W. The Nortk-Fast Correspondence gives full particulars of the negotiations which have been going on between Austria, and Turkey respecting the Dalmatian insurrection. It had been stated that a convention was concluded between these two Powers, which provided for military co-operation in the threatened districts. This announcement is, Leicording to the Correspondence, premature, and it also denies that the Sultan has authorised the Austrian troop; if necessary, to carry on their operations on Turkish territory. It is probable that such an authorisation will be asked for, but the Divan would feel tome hesitation in granting it, as the passage of !Austrian troops on the Montenegrin territory the international position of which was not clearly defined by Xie Treaty of Paris, might produce serious diplomatic tomplications. Prince Nicholas, of Montenegro, has hitherto refused openly to support the cause of the insur gents, but if his territory was occupied with the consent of ,'ie Porte, it is probable that he would take up arms and evoke Russian aid.

A trial of some interest is now going on in Florence, thich partakes of a political more than of a criminal I , Naracter. Major Lobbia, an adherent of the ultra pposition, declared that an attempt bad been made to , - , sassinate him, and it was inferred that th e G overn - Aient were implicated in the matter. The whole use is now being unravelled at the trial. The )bject of the Government is to prove that the Major liras not attacked at all, and that the whole affair is a tonspiracy. The major and four others are accused of 4abricating a criminal charge. In the first place Major i.obbia pleaded his privilege as a Deputy, and denied the jurisdiction of the court, but the point was de termined against him. The next day some surprise was created by the disappearance of Lobbia and his counsel. The trial has gone on without him, but his absence has pro duced a very unfavourable impression. The President has pearly all the work to do, the advocates contenting them helves with making extravagant statements, which they are ,lometimes compelled to retract. It is believed to be highly probable that this assassination story has been got up by filajor Lobbia and his friends. POLYNESIANS LN QTIEMNSLAND. The select committee of the Queensland Assembly have made their report on the employment of Polynesian labourers in the colony. It was generally believed that these men were obtained by force or fraud, were treated unjustly, and not suffered to return Lento at the end of their term of service; also that their employment was opposed to the interests of European labourers. The committee after a careful inquiry do not substani late these charges, though they recommend, precautionary measures, that a government agent should be sent with every licensed vessel, that efficient interpreters should be employed, and that Polynesians should be declared competent witnesses in courts of justice. On the whole the committee are of opinion that no unnecessary obstacle should be thrown in the way of their employment. TILE FIJI ISLANDS. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the settlers in the Fiji Islands, on learning that the British Government had definitely refused the annexation of the islands, have prepared a petition to the United States, to grant them the permanent protection of their flag under self govern ment. THE SOUTH AMERICAN WAR. The arrival of the Brazil and River Plato mails brings news from Rio Janeiro to the 9th of October. No further operations are reported from the seat of war in Paraguay, but preparations were going on for the pursuit of Lopez. His new position is said to be the town of Santo Estanislao, which is situated on a moun tain and surrounded by marshes. Comte d'Eu's report of the August operations had been published, but contained little additional news. He says that Caacupe would have been hard to take from its position, had Lopez defended it. At that place seventy Europeans, mostly English, came into the camp. Many Brazilians were found there, in a wretched state, some dying after their release. Several hun dred sick were in the hospitals, all much exhausted through want of proper sustenance. The Comte, as is usually the case with Brazilians, allows for a terrible loss of life among his adversaries. The allied loss in the Battle of Peribebuy he estimates at 52 killed and 446 wounded, the little Argentine force losing 16 killed and 97 wounded. The Buenos Ayres Standard says that the Provisional Govern ment of Paraguay is endeavouring to clean the city. Thousands of women and children are coming in from the interior, and are lodged in tents on the outskirts. The triumvirs are said to be constantly quarrelling, and the new order of things is only likely to last while the bayonets of the allied army remain there to support it, A census was taken all over the Argentine Republic at the beginning of September, being the first ever taken in the country. The returns for the city of Buenos Ayres gave a population of about 180,000. It was supposed that the total population of the fourteen provinces would be about 1,200,000 souls, or one inhabitant per square mile. On the 11th instant there was a discussion at Boston between Professor Perry and Horace Greeley, on the subject of Free Trade versus Protection. The sym pathies of the audience were clearly with Mr. Greeley, and it is said that that gentleman had the advantage of the argument. This remark of Mr. Greeley's has attracted some attention: that an advocate of the Slave Trade was never known who was not a Free Trader at heart, and that Slave Traders in America have always been Free Traders. Although some papers sneer at the connection which has in America been unfortunately the result of circumstances, yet Slavery and Free Trade were there allied; and it is not easy for this generation to eradicate the impression made on their minds of the connection existing between them, however false. General Butterfield has been called a speculator, having dabbled in securities long before he occupied his present post. It was through Chancellorsville that he did a bold stroke, making capital, as his enemies declare, out of a national disaster. The chance of saddling some one connected with the Government with a share in the dis reputable gambling the enemies of the Administration can not afford to lose, but the charge is now so pointed that it is necessary to meet it. The general falsity of such accusations may be gathered from the excellent speech Vice-President Colfax made to the Mormons :—" I have been accused," he said, "in conjunction with the Presi dent, by your highest ecclesiastical authority, of being a gambler and a drunkard. I wish to state publicly in this city, where the charge was made, that it is utterly untrue as to President Grant, and as to myself that I never gam bled to the value of a farthing, and have been a total ab stinence man all the years of my manhood." One cir cumstance, however, will probably bring out the whole story of the Gold Gamble, as true bills of indictment will, it is said, be found by the grand jury acting on the recent charge of Judge Ingraham and on the evidence submitted by the Distrid Attorney-General against three of the most prominent persons in the operation. One of these is said to have declared that his power was above that of judges and juries, and perhaps he will be gratified at this oppor tunity of displaying it. THE CHINESE COOLIES.—The particulars of the plan for the introduction of Coolie labourers into Louisiana have recently been made public. The employers must ply the labourers monthly wages, amounting to $8 gold or s l ° currency. They must also advance $l5O for the payment of the passage money and two months' wages of each Coolie. The question has been raised whether the planters will be able to raise $3,000 for every 20 hands, at the same time running the risk of the Coolies not working. It is, however, believed that the funds will be forthcoming, and that a large number of Coolies will soon be at work. Judge Sawyer of the District Court at San Francisco has de clared that Chinese testimony is admissable against white men, under the Fourteenth Amendment of the Federal Constitution. KooprnanschaP attended the Commercial Conventio❑ at Louisville to discuss the subject of Chinese immigration. He is to proceed to China, where his con tracts have been made, but it has been arranged that no Chinaman is to leave his native shores until a place is ready for him at a fixed rate of wages, secured by writ ten agreement, for four or five years, with the prospect of good treatment and complete liberty when the con • tract is at an end. By the terms of the contract farm labourers are to receive $8 in gold or 810 in currency per month as waves, to have at least two new suits of clothes each year, to have water-tight sleeping places furnished them, not to be required to work more than 20 days in each month, and, iu general, to be well treated. Railroad hands are to receive sls per mouth in gold for wages. In the first eight months of the year but 11,000 arrived from China at San Francisco, while 3,000 returned, leaving a gain only of 8,000, which is considerably less than in 1852. In 11 years the total number has been 120,000, of whom 50,000 returned. A great change must occur before Chinese immigration rivals that from Europe.
