It is true that the number of deaths set down to this cause are as yet few and far between, but from what is known of the nature of the disease, every death represents a great many less fatal cases. It is happily not often a mortal sickness, but it mows down the population, weakening and paralysing them, and rendering them particularly liable to succumb to any fresh attack.

Famine fever, as it is called, is mainly produced by poverty, want of food, and all the miseries of long-continued destitution. It is because these conditions are natural to it that it finds ready means of extension in the East-end, where it aug ments the chronic evils of the place, unfitting the sufferer for labour, exhausting his already feeble energies, and depressing his worn and jaded spirits The presence of famine fever amongst us is another powerful reminder that the destitution of our masses is a question which imperatively demands public attention.

The chronic misery of the East end is a standing reproach to our civilization. In the table before us we find it playing a conspicuous part, but it is less comprehensible how two deaths from " dcs titution" are chronicled in the favoured workhouse of St. George's, Hanover-square ! It is quite certain that unless a far more energetic and vigilant super vision be kept over our destitute classes during the next few months, we shall have some very painful stories to record before the winter has passed us by. The worst of it is that when the public become im pressed with the sense of the misery about them, they subscribe liberally, but the subscriptions too often are snatched up by the thriftless, the drunken and the undeserving.

The congratula tory of address is contained in a magnificent quarto volume, the covers of which are finished in the most gorgeous manner, the principal colour being imperial purple, the massive clasps to the book are of solid gold, and the four radiated stars, set with oriental pearls, surrounding the royal monogram, are of the same precious metal. The address itself is brilliantly engrossed in colours, and the splendid illuminations to each page, by Marcus Ward, are of the rarest and richest beauty. Messrs. Howell and James, of Re gent-street, whobave had the preparation of the work, have already obtainei merited distinction for their productions, but this their latest triumph will add greatly to their fame. The gorgeous volume when enclosed in the superb silver casket also in process of manufacture by them, will present a work which may with truth be said to be a perfect triumph of British art, and one which no other firm in the country could reproduce. When the splendid volume arrives in Belgium, it cannot but call forth the highest admiration, because it is really and truly a present not only worthy of a great country like England, but also one worthy the acceptance even of a King. THE PRRSEN7ATION OF THE NA7 TONAL ADDRESS TO THE KING OP 7'llE BELGIANS. THIS DAY. The ceremony of presenting a congratulatory ad dress Majestynl the King of th e B e l g i ans o n his and on behalf of th e Corpora tions arrival in gE and municipalities of the United King dom took place to-day with great pomp and ceremony in the magnificent ball-room at Buckingham Palace. The Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs, and a great number of the municipal authorities of the country, each attended by the emblems of office, left the Mansion House this morning in procession, and proceeded towards the Palace. On arriving at Marlborough house-gate, the civic procession was joined by those who had assembled at other points, and thus increased it proceeded to the Palace, where the Lord Mayor of London, the Sheriffs, and the whole of the municipal authorities, the general committee, and the executive were conducted to the ball room. The an such appearance a brilliant this t splendid apartment, filled with company, was particularly appe b ce ril o l f grand, and on the appearance of the King the feel ing rose almost to enthusiasm. The Lord Mayor of London then, on behalf of the assembly, presented to his Majesty the congratulatory address, which was read to his Majesty by the Hon. Secretary of the National Reception Committee, and which was as follows : United Kingdom. fixed issue " We, the Lord Mayors and Lord Provosts, Lord Lieu tenants and High Sheriffs of Counties, the Mayors and other Chief Magistrates of municipalities in the Unitod Kingdom of Greatßritain and Ireland ,whose names are here unto attached, desire to avail ourselves of the opportunity which the visit of your august Majesties to our most Gracious Sovereign affords us, of offering to you on be half of the Counties, Cities, and Boroughs which we, in our official capacity represent, a cordial expression of wel come to this Country. The hospitality accorded by the people of your Majesties' dominions to our countrymen in general, on several occasion s h a d th e h on our of being received in and more espe c i a ll y t o our Volunteers who have Belgium as distinguished guests, will ever remain a pleasing memory to the British people. It is in such cordial expressions of esteem and friendship between the peoples of civilised nations that we recognise the strongest guarantee of peace and prosperity.

From the evidence of Mrs Thomas, it appeared that on Tuesday week he gave the prisoner 5s 6d to go to Shore ditch to purchase something, and he never returned, and she heard no more of him till last night, when he was fetched to the police station in St. Luke's. Tho prisoner had been a great trial to them; he was not honest; he was of dirty habits, and never spoke the truth, and her husband was desirous of having his indentures cancelled. In answer to Mr Newton, tho witness said the lad was a parish apprentice. Mr Newton said, that being the case, he supposed he had no friends. Mrs Thomas said he had not, and she felt very much for him. She had done a groat deal for him. Police-constable 70 G said ho was on duty at the Old street Station when the prisoner applied for an order for the casual ward, and on the inspector asking him where he had come from, he said "From Watford," but on the inspector, who knew that place, asking him some questions he found his story not to be true, and on the prisoner be ing told so said that he had been sent some days before to get something for his master, and that the money he had to pay for it having been snatched from him he was afraid to go back. Tho prisoner said he was robbed of the money and afraid to go back lest his master should give him a hiding, but, n answer to Mr. Newton, ho said his master had never struck him. Mr. Newton zemanded him, and told the constable to request the parish officer to attend to state whether he would consent to the indentures being cancelled. THAMES. A NICE APPRENTICE.— George Johnson, a young man who was brought before Mr. Benson on a warrant, charged with insubordination as an apprentice, and with assault ing Mr. Robert Wilson, his master. Mr. Pelham, solicitor, said the prisoner was an appren tice to a very important and ♦aluable trade, that of an optician and nautical instrument maker, and for his ser_ vices received board and lodgings, but was not entitled to any wages under the apprenticeship deed. The appren tice had six months longer to serve, and for somo time past he had exhibited a spirit of insubordination. Three months ago the prisoner was brought before Mr. Paget for misconduct, and assaulting his master, and the magis trate thought it was a case in which an action ought to be brought against the father of the prisoner, in the County Court, for a breach of covenant. Since then the ap prentice bad continually insulted his master, and called him a conceited fool, a silly one, and taunted him with his failure in the police-court, in such words as these—" How nice you looked in the Thames police-court," "What a fool you are ; what a show up." Last Friday he re ceived a job, and said to his master, "Is this to be a day's work," meaning a gratuity of a shilling his master was in the practice of giving him daily. Mr. Wilson said, "No certainly not; you must work according to your inden tures." The prisoner then struck his master a violent blow on the nose. The prisoner was in the habit of rising from his bed, not at 6 o'clock in the morning as he was bound todo, but at 10, 11, 12, 1,2, and 3 o'clock in the afternoon After an indulgence in bed one night and a day, the pri soner left his bed one evening and demanded his three meals in one—(a laugh) —which were supplied to him. Mr. Benson—Breakfast, dinner, and tea altogether ? Mr. Pelham—Exactly so. This can be put up with no longer, and what I propose is that the indentures be can celled. The apprenticeship expires in six mouths. The prisoner said he objected o the cancelling of the indentures. He would serve out his time. Mr. Benson—Not in the way you are now doing. Why did you not attend to my summons? The prisoner —Because it rained on the day I was to attend here. I was not coming out in the rain—not for Joe. (Laughter.) Mr. Benson—Quite the gentleman, certainly. Why cot rise earlier, and at least be civil to your master ? The prisoner—l was ill. Mr. Benson—So ill that you ate three meals at once, took the street door key, and came home at 12 o'clock at night. After some further discussion, Mr. Benson doubted whether the prisoner was sane. He would remand him to prison until Tuesday next, and then decide what he would do with him. WESTMINSTER. CHARGE OF FELONY AGAINST A POLICEMAN AND WIFE.. Francis Stewart, a mounted constable of the A Division, and Agnes, his wife, were finally examined, charged witl stealing £l2O in cash and notes, the monies of Mr. Ram say, a baker, of Raphael-street, Chelsea, in his dwelling. house. Mr. W. D. Smyth, of Rochester-row, prosecuted ; and Mr. Sayer, from Messrs. Lewis's, of Marlborough-street, defended. The evidence was of the most voluminous character and showed that the prisoners lodged at prosecutor's house, and on a Sunday in October the cash-box and mo ney were lost from under the prosecutor's bed. Other people were in the house, but suspicion rested on the pri soners, who suddenly came into possession of a large sum of money. But there was very little evidence against the man. The wife accounted for the possession of the money by stating that she received it from the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank in Nicholas-lane ; but this turned out to be false, and .£l.l was given up by her, including a £5 note, which the prosecution alleged was in the box at the time it was stolen. Mr. Sayer made an energetic appeal on behalf of the man, but they were committed for trial, bail being taken for the man.

The visit of the King of the BELGIANS to this country is well calculated to excite interest. The hospitable reception which our Volunteers have met with in their repeated visits to Belgium has increased the goodwill which always existed between this coun try and Belgium. For many reasons then it seems most opportune that we should have an opportunity of paying a tribute of respect and regard to LEO roLD the Second. The presentation of the National Address may be looked upon as symbolical of a real feeling of interest, and apart from the complimentary usage which too often is the only real thing in these affairs. The King and Queen of the BELGIANS are informed of the cordial feeling which animates the people of this country, and a warm welcome is given to them through the medium of the most fitting representatives, the Lord Mayors, Lord Lieutenants and High Sheriffs, the Mayors, and other Chief Magistrates of Great Bri tain and Ireland. They declare that the hospitality accorded by the people of their MAJESTIES dominions to our countrymen in general, and especially tolour Volunteers, will ever remain a pleasing memory to the British people. They beg also to offer their assu rances that throughout the communities which they have the honour to represent, there exists the most distinguished esteem for the august persons of their MAJESTIES, and for the wise and benefi cent rule that has distinguished their reign. This National Address was contained in a magnificent volume, illuminated and emblazoned in the most ele gant style. Unfortunately, through mistake or mis management, we have not, as a nation, been very successful in our attempts to welcome those royal and distinguished foreign guests who have visited our shores ; but this somewhat unceremonious visit of the King of the BELGIANS seems likely to be attended with happier results than some of the more pretentious affairs have been. At any rate, the KING will know that goodwill has not been wanting, and will bear back to Belgium a lively recollection of English gratitude. The International Fetes, which have now become a sort of custom, cannot be too highly regarded, for they are the surest indications of the progress of the different countries whose represen tatives take part in them. Belgium has taken an honourable part in this great work, and it is right that her services should be duly acknowledged. The ceremony which has just taken place at Bucking- ham Palace possesses an interest that will not die away with the passing events of the day. The King's reply was a most appropriate one. lie ex- pressed his regard for the many eminent men who bestowed on him a part of the friendship they entertained for his father. Ile concluded by declaring that if it was given to him to fulfil their expectations during his reign, it would be partly . due to the encouragement afforded to him. On the whole, both Belgians and Englishmen have good reason to be satisfied with the reception which has been given to LEOPOLD the Second and with the manner in which he has acknow ledged it. The condition of the public health in the metro polis, as indicated by thiz weekly return of the Registrar-General, is very far from satisfactory. London has for the time being lost its pre-eminence as the healthiest town, and while Bristol, Birming ham, and Liverpool have respectively a death-rate of 27, 24, and 29 per 1,000, London returns it at 31 ! It is true that in most of the large towns whose tables of mortality are thus compared with our own the rate is at present very high. Scarlet fever is exceptionally fatal, and has played great havoc in Sheffield, Liver pool, Leeds, and Hull, as well as in London. The changeable season, too, must answer for a good deal, and the heavy mortality of last week was chiefly owing to the deaths of the aged, who are most quickly affected by the fluctuations of the weather. The fact, however, that our weekly table of mortality shows an increase of 170 on the week preceding, and an excess of 293 on the corrected average, is a little startling. If this is the case while the weather, how ever fluctuating, is certainly not severe, what may we expect in a prolonged frost ? It would seem as though the public health were in a low and unsatisfactory condition, predisposed to the spread of epidemics awl ill prepared to resist the attacks of winter frosts and blasts. With regard to the prevalence of scarlet fever, the Registrar-General may perhaps throw some light on its rapid progress. Of the 208 persons who died from it in the week, 43 cases occurred in the North, 66 in the South, and 69 in the East. The Registrar of the sub-district of Trinity, Newington, reports that "scarlet fever is very prevalent. Some of the houses are in a wretched condition, and not fit for habitation ; the ventilation is very defective ;" so that, naturally, when one member of a family catches the disease, and is laid up with it in the midst of an ill-ventilated. room, . the infection spreads from one to the other; the; healthy have no chance of escape, THE TWELVE DA LONDON MISSION. AN EXTRAORDINARY SCENE AT ST. ALBANS. On Wednesday evening the extraordinary mission which has excited such a deep interest throughout London and its suburbs, was virtually brought to a close. The last formal service took place on Wednesday night, and a very extraordinary one it was, probably the most extraordinary which had been witnessed in the English Church since the time of the Reformation. It was what was termed a "Re newal of Baptismal Vows," and although it was carried out with great earnestness in many places, there were few in which there were such elaborations of detail as at St. Alban's, Holborn, At 8 o'clock the church was densely crowded, the whole of the centre part of the church being railed off for the penitents, ono side for the men and the other for the women, the seats against the wall on either side being reserved for those who came to witness the ceremony, without intending to take any distinctive part in it. After the " Miserere," and one or two other psalms and prayers, the Rev. S. W. O'Neill, M.A., of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, one of the Society of St. John the Evangelist, Cowley, entered the pulpit (having pre viously heard the confessions of several young men and women in a little box in the corner of the church), and commenced by stating that the offertory that night would be devoted to defraying the expenses of the mis sion, and as they had been very considerable, he hoped all present would give liberally, for it would be a shame to throw the burden upon the clergy of the church, who had provided the services for the sake of the people. He then selected for his text the 21st chapter of the Book of Reve lation, 4th verse—" And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain." On this he preached an eloquent and impassioned sermon on the joys of Heaven. Another hymn having been sung, Mr. O'Neill said he would now briefly explain the nature of the service in which they were about to engage. First—the candles which would be used would be blessed, in the same way that vestments and all vessels and other articles of church furniture were blessed before they were used. A candle would be given to each one who was about to renew his vows. This candle he would have lighted, and what was not consumed of it might be taken home, so that any person might have the remainder of it burnt at the time of his death. This candle would be a happy reminiscence of the day, and would guide them through the valley of death, which was a dark journey. The questions which would be put were taken from the Offices of Baptism in the Book of Common Prayer, and he trusted that all would gave their answers in a bold and manly way, not as though they were ashamed of them. Let them speak ou! - , so that the Church might be glorified, and that the devils might tremble. The candles were then blessed at the altar, but how this ceremony was performed was not seen by any who were not within the chancel. In a minute or two afterwards the candles were lighted (they were thin wax ones of about a foot long), and each of the penitents, to the number of nearly 500 men and women, held one of them while a penitential hymn was sung. The scene in the church was very striking ; the body of the church was a perfect blaze of light, while the chancel was nearly dark. Mr. O'Neill, addressing the penitents who stood in this position, said — This is indeed a happy time ; you are in the presence of God, and stand like virgins with their lamps trimmed. He then said very slowly and solemnly, "Do you here in the presence of God and of this congregation renew the solemn promise and vow that was made in your name at your baptism ; ratifying and confirming the same in your own persons, and acknowledging yourselves bound to believe and to do all these things which your godfathers and godmothers then undertook for you ?" To this there was a loud and startling response of " I do," and the other questions which followed were answered in an equally determined manner. After this part of the ceremony, Mr. O'Neill went to the altar, and was vested in a splendidly embroidered cope. He was joined by the Rev. Messrs. Mackonochie, Walker, Howse, and Wellington. Several members of the Society of St. John the Evangelist, and a large number of choristers, and a procession, accompanied by banners, moved round the church—the 500 men and boys, women and girls, following in their train, each carry ing a lighted candle, and singing the appointed hymns. Amongst them were professional men, tradesmen, clerks, working men, and little ragged fellows who had done their best to put on a respectable appearance, women of good position wearing diamond rings, tradesmen's wives and daughters, sempstresses, sisters of mercy, charwomen, and other classes from the squalid district in which St. Albans is situate. When the clerical part of the procession had reached the chancel, and the penitents had regained their places, the blessing was pronounced, and the candles having as if by one single breath been blown out, the con gregation dispersed. The report that Lord Chelmsford (the Lord Chan cellor in the Derby Government)is ill, is quite groundless. TILE TELEGRAPHS AND THE GOVERNMENT. — The telegraph wires have been laid on to the Falmouth Post Office, and .the business will be conducted there instead of at the present telegraph office at the quay, which will be closed. It is believed that this is the first post office in the West of England where arrangements made by the Government for con ducting the telegraphs at the post office have come into operation. We are able to state on authority that the remains of Mr. George Peabody will be removed from Westminster Abbey on the 3d or 4th of December. When it was announced that the Monarch would not sail until the arrival of the American convcy, it was sup posed that the coffin of the deceased philanthropist would be removed from London on Friday, the day origi nally named, and remain on board the Monarch. Now, however, it is decided that the removal of the remains shall not be made till the day before the ships can leave the English shore. STORY OF THE PRINCE OF WALES AND HIS CIGARS.—The Prince of Wales, unless popular rumour is for once cruelly unjust, loves a good cigar much better than a long speech. Not so long back he set conventional forms at defiance by requesting a premier or an archbishop —we really forget which—at some city banquet, to "cut it short ;" and in this particular, at least, it must be admitted that the Prince practises what he preaches. The recent death of Lord Foley has revived a story which doubtless did good duty in its day at the clubs. His lord ship was universally admired for his refinement and good taste, and on one occasion, when entertaining the Prince at dinner, his Royal Highness expressed a desire to indulge in his favourite weed. " But Lord Foley was not willing that even Royal smoke should desecrate his home, and headed a procession to the stables, where, in a more con genial atmosphere, the Royal cigar was disposed ef." MONSEIGNEUR DUTANLOUP.—It is not too much to say that one of the most important men in France at this hour is Monseigneur Doupanloup, Bishop of Orleans. But who is he? Tho question has been often asked, but seldom satisfactorily answered. On the one hand he is said by some to be the son of Charles X.; and those who judge from personal appearance alone might have some show of reason on their side, inasmuch as the Bishop bears a remarkable resemblance to the last Bourbon king. Others connect him with Talleyrand. All that is known of Monseigneur Dupanloup's past life is that in consequence of certain informalities about his birth there were some difficulties in Rome about his ordination. Shortly after taking orders he became cure of the parish of St. Roch, at Paris, and was always employed by the Court in baptising, preparing for confirmation, &c., the various members of the Royal Family. He was subsequently transferred to Tours, where he remained as grand-vicaire until his promotion to the see of Orleans in 1857.—Pa1l Mall Gazette. VA.* CC/nwrit 14')/ 's * 61 frr.4'4., HER MAJESTY.

THE WATCH HAS BEEN FOUND AGAIN.-Wk watch ? Who has ever been in the United States and knows anything about Washington and Lafayette without having heard the mysterious story of the watch ? For the benefit of those who have not learned to connect serious politics with trivial incidents here is the story. During the war of independence a Swiss watchmaker of Philadelphia named Weitzel made a present of a gold watch to General Washington. It was a splendid watch, and the donor shewed his sense of its value by attaching a condition to the gift —namely, that Washingten should never part with it unless he could give it to some man who had rendered greater services than himself to his country. After keep ing the watch for some time, Washington thought he would fulfil the intentions of the giver by offering it to Lafayette. The gift was accepted as a high honour, and when,in 1825,Lafayette revisited America he was quite proud to wear IVeitzers watch. But at Nashville, while he was receiving the felicitations of the people of Tennessee, it was stolen from him. Everybody in the United States was indignant at this daring theft, which seemed an insult to the nation. The newspapers raged, and everybody became a voluntary detective, but all to no purpose. The thief escaped, and no trace of the watch could be found. The other day, however, in a Western town an old gentleman chanced to look into the window of a pawnbroker's shop, where to his unutte!able surprise he recognised the watch. He recognised it, for he had seen it—having been one of the officers who received Lafayette at Nashville in 1825. He had also kept several newspapers of that date describing the events in which he took part, and among other points giving a minute account of the watch, It seems that it had been pawned by a young girl, who, being questioned, said that the watch had been for a long time (=staffed a family relic, her parents before Coll , .4001 having njoiroti umr to put 1 ITALY. FLORENCE, Nov. 24 (Evening.) Nothing definitive is known as yet respecting the result of Signor Lanza's efforts to form a Cabinet. In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies an address was voted in reply to the Speech from th e Throne. A Royal decree, dated the 17th inst., orders that the following established holidays :are henceforth officially to be recognised throughout the kingdom, viz. :—All Sundays, and only eleven feast days. 6,510 metres of the Mont Cenis tunnel, on the Italian side, were completed yesterday. The tun nel is therefore half finished, and the works hav e now entered upon French territory. RoME, Nov. 2 4 . The Cardinal Vicar of Rome has to-day issued an exhortation, by order of the Pope, enjoining the inhabitants of the Holy City to prepare themselves by devotional exercises for the forthcoming (Eel' menical Council. A Novena in honour of the Immaculate Concer _ . tion is to be made obligatory in all churches. Spi ritual exercises are to be held, and in twenty-two churches there will bo an exposition of relics and images. The Vigil of the Conception will be observed as a strict fast; and during the continuance of the Council the Litany of the Saints will be recited in all churches on Sundays. TIIE INSURRECTION IN DXLMATIA. VIENNA, Nov. 2 1 . The latest advices from Dalmatia do not give very hopeful view of affairs in that province. 118 insurrection is not yet put down, and it is gene rally believed that it will not be crushed without military operations on an extensive scale bag undertaken for that purpose. The rebellion corps are up at all points, and if repressed at one r ise again in another. i The news which has been published of the po" fication of the Zuppa is not credited, and the a" , peditions which Colonel:Sehonfeld has been Orcts pelled to undertake in the neighbourhood o f Thiciti, is a proof that there at any rate the agitatio n °°ll tinues. Even if the Fort of Dragali has b een re captured, a fact by no means confirmed up to t he present, it does not imply that the entire insurrec- tion has been suppressed. fl at The half civilised hordes who find a firm SUN" in the neighbouring countries are not easily csub dued, and the rebellion may not only be prolonge t for weeks, but for months. There is but little ao b 0 that both the Montenegrins and their Prince are involved in the insurrection. A letter addressed by the secretary of Prince Nicholas to the Chief of the Insurgents has been published, and throescurious light on the intrigues of the insurgents. in this letter occur these words : Wil l " Defend yourselves as long as your force allow you, retire upon our frontier, and once / t) are there we will make common cause." The f it3t ment also appears in the letter, that this letter 'e not written on his authority, but expressly et tof command of Prince Nicholas and the Preside nt the Montenegrin Senate. thi° The probability is that all connection with a is letter will be repudiated by the Prince, but generally stated that he is playing a double ga t '" iti The home of the insurrection is without del lb u it Montenegro, and until steps are taken to attack there the rebellion will not be put down.
