There is a daily demand for more beds, and the staff of nurses would be able to attend upon more children, but no more can be admitted 'n the present building. £B,OOO at least is required to can y out this much-wished for and urgent scheme Contributions will be thankfully received by the Trea surer, E.S.

The Bonds, to be redeemed every half year, are to be drawn by lot in the months of April and October in each year at the Ministry of Finance, at Bucharest, in the pre sence of a Public Notary, of an Agent of the Government, and the Agent of the Bank of Roumania. The first drawing is to take place in April, 1870. Holders of Scrip Certificates will be entitled to the benefit of the first drawing on payment of all the instalments on their Bonds drawn. A copy of the Bond to be delivered is printed for re ference. These Bonds bear a threefold guarantee :- 1. The guarantee of the Government, by annual inser tion in the Budget of the State. 2.

Physical Strength. —For the proper development and nourishment of the human body it is essential that the functions of the stomach, liver, kidneys, and bowels be per formed with order and regularity. Holloway's remedies readily ensure both these conditions. The powers of the stomach are greatly augmented, and good gastric juice secreted in abundance when this ointment is diligently rubbed twice a day over the pit of the stomach. The pills and ointment enable it to extract all the food's nutritious matter, and to thoroughly digest most articles of food. In the most advanced cases of dyspepsia the salutary power possessed by these medicaments is most remarkable, and will fully realise the patient's hopes and the expectations of his friends. The Post states that Server Effendi, a distinguished diplomatist of Turkey, has been despatched from Constan tinople with a firman for the Khedive. He is well known for his conciliatory disposition, and there is every reason to hope that he will smooth away difficulties. The Constitutionnel declares that it was fully justified in denying the reports relative to the Sultan's ultimatum and the threatened despatch of the Turkish &it. The Sultan has not pushed matters to extremity, and has con tented himself with reminding the Khedive of the legal situation of the Viceroy of Egypt set forth by the Acts of 1841, 1852, and 1865. The great Powers of Europe are fully determined to do their utmost to prevent any sedous complications, and a perfect agreement exists between France and England on the subject. At the same time there is no denying that great excitement prevails at Constantinople, and the relations between the Sultan and his vassal are in a most critical state. The universal anxiety which the Eastern question excites in Europe affords reason to hope that the crisis may come to a pacific conclusion. CANDEDATIIEB OF THE DUNE OF GENOA. The Correspondencia, of Madrid, furnishes some explana tion of the contradictory statements that have been made with respect to the candidature of the Duke of Genoa. The Madrid paper is on the side of Marshal Prim in affirming that the King of Italy had promised to do all that he could to favour the candidature, but it also agrees with the Marquis Rapallo that the King is unwilling to offend the mother of the young Prince, who is greatly opposed to the scheme. This appears to be the explanation of the imbroglio, but it if net encouraging to the partisans of Prince Thomas. TEE POLISU LANGUAGE. A pleasant surprise has been given to the Austrian Poles. The Government Commissioner inform3d them at the close of the Diet that Polish is to be the official language of Galicia from the Ist of January, 1870, instead of 1873, as announced. All their most important demands would, he added, be conceded by the Government. This announcement gave general satisfaction, and has secured the support of the Polish deputies to the Government. The Russian authorities are acting very differently. A few days since a merchant, named Yaleski, was fined 25 roubles (P.,3 108.), for addressing a friend in Polish at the public baths. The friend and the keeper of the baths were condemned to pay a similar fine. lIIVARLk. Considerable excitement prevails in Bavaria. The posi tion of Prince Hohenlohe the Premier, is very uncertain. The National Gazette of Berlin states that the reports con cerning the resignation of the Prince are more serious than was at first supposed. It was thought that a part of the Ministry would retire and that Prince Hohenlohe would `re construct the Administration. It appears, however, that he is fully de termined to quit the Ministry altogether. It doubtful who will be his successor. TIIE JEWS IN LITHITANIA. Delegates from the Jews of Lithuania have waited upon the governor of the province asking for relief from the distress they are now suffering in consequence of the aggressive measures against them. The governor gave them little encouragement, and the delegates, after holding a long ccnference, asked that they might be allowed to emigrate in a body. This wish will not, it is thought, be opposed, as the Jews are thought to favour the Polish cause. THE BOHEMIAN CATHOLICS AND THE COUNCIL. A numerously-signed petition has been addressed to the Episcopal Consigtory at Koniggriitz, praying that the Latin language may no longer be used in the Catholic churches in Bohemia, as the Czechs understand no lan guage but their own. Tho Consistory have replied that the matter will be discussed at the Qicumenical Council, at which the Bohemian Bishops will support the demands of the petilioners. GERMAN STEAMERS TO CENTRAL AMERICA. The Panama papers announce that a new line of steam communication between Bremen and the West Indies and Central America, with special regard to Venezuela and New Granada, is to be immediately established by the North German Lloyd Company. Tho want of a direct line of steamers, establishing a regular communication with Central America, the West Coast of Africa, and South America has been for some time severely felt in the German trade, as the Bremen imports from these parts are often very valuable. CENTRAL AMERICAN FINANCES. The merchants of Panama have presented a petition to the Legislative Assembly calling the attention of the deputie3 to the commercial depression of the country, and praying them to economise the public expenses as much as possible in order to avert the exaction of exorbitant rates. THE womarEN's EXHIBITION. The English Consul in Panama has received a commu nication from the Foreign Office, informing him that the Commissioners of the Workmen's Inter national Exhibition of 1870 desire to receive specimens of woods of various kinds and articles of agricultural produce. Many valuable and interesting specimens may be furnished from the Republics of Central America. Some of the woods aro little known abroad, but would excite admiration if they were seen. A short time ago a very hard wood, beautifully shaded, and susceptible of a very high polish, was found in the Cauca, and another kind, resembling rosewood, was found in the Isthmus.

" The Terrors of St. Pancras Workhouse"—The Guar- dians. JUST LIKE THEM.—The St. Pancras guardians have passed a resolution that Mr. Blake, the late master of the work house, "is never to be allowed to enter the workhouse gates again." If this is intended as a punishment, the guardians must have strange ideas of people's likes and dislikes. Mr. Blake must be eccentric indeed, if he doesn't regard this as the best thing that could happen to him. The large Lock Hospital recently erected by Mr. Stiff, of Dover, on the Maidstone road, near Chat kam railway station, has now been completed. The chief medical officer has been selected by the Sec retary of State for War, and the appointment was gazetted last night—Surg.-Major H. H. Baxter, M.D., F.R.C.S., .who is named visiting surgeon for Chatham, Gravesend, and Maidstone, under the Contagious Diseases Act. The new hospital will receive the cases from the places named, and also from Sheerness. As soon as the hospital is opened for use, the Lock patients now in St. Bar tholomew's Hospital, Chatham, will be transferred to it. Hitherto Government has paid for these patients a yearly sum per head, there being accom modation for 40 women ; but the extension of the operation of the Apt of Parliament and other causes have led to the erection of the new hospital, which is a building of considerable extent. [ Ai) YElivissliENT. j—llenceforth no one will doubt the valuable properties of Du Barry's health-restoring Revalenta Ara,bica, Invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of blessings it has already received from Invalids whose position had been deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope, whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of unsuccessful medical treatment. We quote from the " Gazette du Midi," July 25th : —"Rom,, :—" Rome, July 21, 1866. The health of the Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other reme dies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta Arabi= Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal. It has produced a surprisingly , beneticial effect oa his health, and his Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly."
