ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ; with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."--London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who praless to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, a,nd thus a safe guide is Offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within tit , / reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

There is but one party now, the party of patriots, embracing the whole nation; every dis tinction, every difference has been merged into the love of the common country. The progress is so great in this re gard.that Mr. Zsedenyi, one of the most prominent mem bers .of the former Government party, is now in the same predicatnent in which I found myself in 1839, He suffers imprisonment, 'as I and Wesselenyi suffered. lin the cause _of liberty of the press Wesselenyi in the cause of liberty of §Peech, Zsedenyi in the.cause of liberty of conscience—all of ns equally fat adhering to right and law. The aristocracy gOes with the people, and the people goes with the aristocracy: To introduce divisions Amongst them, the Government is re-offering to the aristocracy the, privilege of patrimonial jurisdiction. The aristocracy repudiates it. They will hear of no privileges-no ties. Equal freedom or equal oppression; equal, weal, equal woe, is their motto. The people,.on. the other. hand, does not grudge to the aristocracy its social pre-emintiice- 7 -it trusts them and honours them as an Octet btothei, the prop and lustre of the national household. But if there is, one class rather than another to which should boW with ad miring veneration, it is the Roman Catholic clergy of Huu "gaiy, from the huMble village prieit up to the mitred prince of the church.

The usual weekly meeting of the Metropolitan Board of Works was held yesterday in the Council Chamber, Guildhall—Mr. J. Thwailes in the chair. The financial statement was presented, which showed a total general balance of £55,400 17s. Gd. . TIIE FINANCE COMMITTEE. Mr. LESLIE renewed his motion—" That the finance committee of the Metropolitan Board of Works be a committee of the whole board. whereby every representative of the ratepayers will have a printed business paper of the financial subjects to be discussed." Mr. D'IFFANGER seconded the motion, and said several other committees which were open to the whole of the members of the board worked most satisfactorily. Mr. BIDGOOD moved the " previous question," which was immediately put and carried by a ma jority of 19 to 5. Mr. LESLIE gave notice that he would next week renew his motion. THE COAL TAX LEVIED BY TIIE CITY OF LONDON. The chairman has addressed a later to the different metropolitan members of Parliament and vestries of the metropolis in reference to the coal tax, in which he states that the estimated cost of the works ordered by the board, and now in progress, for the formation of new thoroughfares and other objects, in addition to the main drainag3, for which the board are empowered to raise £3,000,000, exceeds £500,000. Besides this, the board have either paid or agreed to contribute various sums, amounting in the whole to upwards of £lO,OOO, towards the cost of widening existing thoroughfares in various dis tricts of the metropolis, and they are constantly called upon to make contributions to other improve ments of a similar character, on the application of the local authorities. The estimated cost for forming a park at Finsbury, for which an act of Parliament has been obtained, but which cannot be carried into effect until fresh sources of revenue become available to the board, is £216,820. The total esti mated cost of improvements is £16,346,245, and the net cost £12,205,675. To this must be added the sum of £439,752 for the repair of main sewers, the covering of open sewers, end the construction of subsidiary works, and the mortgage debts left by the former sewer commissioners for works executed, amounting to £309,902 125., and a further sum bor rowed of £lOB,OOO, and applied by the board in execution of the Metropolis Local Management Act. The board was also charged with the duty of pay ing to former officers of the Sewers Commission and Metropolitan Buildings Office, by way of compen sation for loss of office, or retiring allowance, an annual sum of £2,301 15s. Id. The position of the board, therefore, was this- 2 --they have vast obliga tions cast upon them by recent changes_ in the law, and they possess no corporate funds, and it remained for them to urge their claim to those amongst ex isting imposts which might be made available for the objects which have been described, with the least detriment to the ratepayers and the public in general.' The duties which appear to the board to represent this characteristic are those on hackney carriages, and the whole or a part of those levied on coals in the metropolitan district. As regards the former it is obvious that the great cost of maintain ing the roadways in the metropolis isstargely due to the wear and tear occasioned by this portion of the street traffic, and the consequent duties of the parishes are greatly in excess of those which would devolve upon them under their common law obligation to maintain their roads, and are such as to fairly en title them to additional sources of revenue; and the fact that the hackney carriage duty is practically confined to the metropolis seems to point to this as its proper application. That this duty is peculiar to the metropolis is proved by a return of the House of Commons, dated 14th Feb., 1859, which shows that the amount of duty for the year ending April, 1858, charged in the metropolitan districts on hack ney carriages was £80,308 Cs., whilst under the same head nothing was charged on the rest of Eng land and Wales. It is not necessary that the board should express any opinion on the policy of this tax, but they simply contend that so long as it continues to be levied according to the present mode it should ,in justice be appliad to municipal and not to impelial purposes. As regards the coal dues, the whole course of legislation for a consider able time past, with respect to the larger proportion of them, has marked them as an especial fund, whe ther in the hands of the civic authorities or those of the executive Government, out of which the cost of public improvements should be defrayed. The duties which are levied on seaborne and inland coals within a radius of 20 miles from the Post office amount to 13d. a ton—comprising three duties of Bd., 4d., and ld. In furtherance of the objects set forth, the board propose at an early period respectfully to press their claims on the attention of her Majesty's Government, with a view to prompt and efficacious legislative measures upon the subject; and they trust to secure the benefit of your co-operation in this step, as well as in such consequent proceeding: as may result from it. They believe this to be the fitting time for dealing with these questions, and that to be dealt with effectually they must be dealt with separately, and not in connection with and as a part of other and larger geestions which will come before the Legislature in due course at the appointed time ; and further, they consider that to defer legi slation on the subject until some anticipated gene ral revision of the entire system of taxation shall have taken place, will be not only to perpetuate the injustice which this board as well as vestries and district boards are now suffering, hut to oppose a formidable, if not an insurmountable, obstacle to the entire course of public improvement in the metro polis. The evils of delay are but imperfectly. appre.: dated by the public, and cannot be over-estiina te d The chief difficulties against whic h the booatrd the e h f a a s e -e t to struggle are in a great measure duo future e t that they have not only to p rovide re quirements, but they ha ve to remedy c the mischief c onsequent upon past shortcomings. On entering upon their functions they had to deal with a vast accumulation of arrears in every department of public works —chiefly arising from former delays. This result was no doubt partly owing to the ab sence of any central authority constituted for carry ing out works commensurate with the growing wants of the capital, and to the desultory and local character of those improvements which were actu ally effected ; and, further, to the fact that it Las only been at a comparatively recent period that the public attention has been effectually directed to the absolute necessity of making more adequate provi sion for the convenience and health of a population which has nearly doubled within the last 45 years. One thing is undoubted, and that is, that the longer the task is delayed the greater will be the difficul ties attending its execution ; and those incur a NET," S PAPER r' 7 llZ‘ t - Aib, A e.44# 1 4,t, ~/l4 heavy responsibility who, in ' '1414...

This communication was ordered to be inserted on the minutes.

Hill, Fawcett, and Hill, 29, Threadneedle-street. A Concession has been granted by his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Brazil, with the concurrence of the Brazilian Le gislature, having for its object the introduction.into the capital of the empire, of a system of town drainage as pre vailing in England. The Concession is for 90 years ; the terms are liberal and just, and framed with the view of providing the important City of Rio de Janeiro, the population, of which numbers about 350,000 with a thorou(rh system of good drainage, and at the same time of securing a handsome remuneration to those who embark in the undertaking. '' The Directors have been in communication with the Bra zilian Minister in London, who has received instructions from the Imperial Government to give the undertaking every aid and encouragement. The Works to be executed by the Company are declared by the Concession to be privileged Works of the State, and as such entitled to special facilities and protection. The Concession provides for the drainage of the City in three separate districts ; and also for extension of the drain age beyond the limits of the present plan, when the rate to be paid to the Company by the Government for the additional area, shall amount to 9 per cent. per unnum on the further outlay. Power will be taken to raise additional capital for this purpose should it be required The plans for the proposed works were prepared by Mr. Gotto, C.E., upon a careful examination of the locality, and have been adopted by the Brazilian Government, after having been submitted by them, through his Excellency Le Corn mandeur de Carveiho Moreira, then and now their Minister in London, to Sir Wm. Cubitt, the late Mr. Robert Stephen son, M.P., and the late Mr. Rendel ; by whom they were ap proved and reported upon. A copy of these reports and of the concession may be seen on application to the Solicitors or Brokers. _ Provision (ty means of a guaranteed contract with responsi ble contraetors) has been made for completion of the whole of the works (including the drainage of 14,891 houses) for a sum which, together with the cost of the concession, including the original surveys, detaile 1 and other drawings, and prelimi nary expenses (9.85,000), and with engineering, administra tion, and all other charges during construction, both here and in Rio, as also interest at 7 per cent, per annum on calls during the progress of the works, will fall within the capital of £650,000. The Brazilian Government is bound, by legislative enact ment, to pay to the Company 42 milreis per annum, which, at the par, of exchange, of 27d., amounts to £4 14s. 6d, for every house now erected or hereafter built within the three districts during the term of the concession, such payment to be made half-yearly for all the houses, whether occupied or not. The number of houses, according to the last returns, amounted in June, 1859, to 13,739 ; and adding the average number of houses yearly built in the City, there will be, on the completion of the works (within the three districts) at least 14,891 houses (the number provided for in the Contract) from which the revenue of the Company will arise. The amount to be received upon 14,891 houses will alone produce a gross income to the Company of £70,350. In addition to the above drainage payment on houses, the Municipality of FA° is bound to pay a yearly sum of 12,000 milreis (£1,350) for cleansing and maintaining in working order the rain-water sewers. _ . _ As regards the annual working expenses, a guaranteed con tract has been entered into with the same contractors who are to execute the works for keeping them in perfect repair, and for working the system for a period of 21 years, for a sum of £ll,OOO per annum, leaving only the administration charges to be added, and thus securing a clear net income exceeding 8 per cent, per annum on the capital of £650,000 To the above must be added the important profits to accrue to the Company from the exclusive right, which the concession accords, of executing on account of the house proprietors and municipality, and at their expense, all extra drainage works connected with the houses and City. The growing commercial and social importance of Rio, and the rapid increase of its population, renders it obvious that the profit arising from this source must be considerable. As the number of houses increase in the three districts, additional capital for draining them will be raised (the option of taking that capital being reserved to the Shareholders), and thereby a further additional percentage will attach to the whole of the capital invested in the undertaking, inasmuch as the main outlet sewers are included in the contract already entered into. Applications for Shares are to be made in the annexed form, addressed to the Brokers, but no application will be consi dered unless accompanied by the receipt of Messrs. Glyn, Mills, and Co., for £1 per Share on the bnmber of Shares applied for. This Deposit will be returned in the event of the application not being acceded to ; and if an allotment is made, it will be applied towards the Deposit of £3 per Share then payable.

Owing to the paucity of the daily attendance at the Rooms, it is with the utmost difficulty that we are enabled to make out a list of quotations upon the Derby or the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes. Commissions are frequently sent into the market without being executed, unless a price is accepted without there being anything like the usual competition, and we have no hopes that this state of things will undergo any groat improvement until the expiration of the present month, when the weights and acceptances for the Spring Handicaps will have become familiar to the racing public. To-day, and we may say on the quiet, 1,200 to 100 was taken twice about The Wizard for the Derby, upon which event the following investments were also made :--2,000 to 30 Trovatore, 1,000 to 20 Cramond, 300 to 25 Mainstone, 1,000 to 10 Grenadier, 1,000 to 25 Pale face, and 260 to 20 Nutbourne. For the Two Thousand Guineai Stakes 800 to 100, or any part thereof, would have boon taken about Lupullus. The Wizard would have been supported at any advance upon 4 to 1, and 45 to 1 was offered to money asst Buccaneer, but not a wager upon this event came to our knowledge. CLOSING PRICES.

Governor Kossuth has addressed to a number of gentlemen at Glasgow, who had asked him whether,. in the present juncture of affairs, expressions of favourable public opinion would be serviceable to the Hungarian cause, a letter, of which the follow ing is the principal portion : . _ _ I answer most unhesitatingly in the affirMative. And it does besides appear to me that an expression of the opinions of the British people on the subject is an urgent exigency of the exalted position of this mighty and constitutional, nation. Allow me to explain. You are aware both of the character and intensity of the Hungarian movement. Well, in November, 1858, when not a breeze was yet in motion indicative of the storm which has swept over the tottering house of Austria, I expressed, in one of my lectures at Glasgow, the opinion that the time bad come for refreshing public interest in the cause of my native country.' Events fully justified my anticipations. , All that time the name of Hungary was scarcely mentioned in the' organs of Eitropean publicity. To-day she is a-etanding topic of report and argument throughout the whole periodical press, on the con tinent and in Great Britain alike. And both the justice and importance of my country'acause is receiving a telling testi mony from the fact that; with the exception, of the few ultramontano journals (such as the French L' Univers), of the doting Augsburg Gazette; 'notoriously in the pay of the Austrian court, and some of the Viennese papers, the whole European press, even some journals-of Vienna included, is unanimous in condemning An-not less foolish than iniqui tous course of Francis Josoph of Austria, and in acknow ledging the justice of the cause of Hungary. In fact, the results of the war in Italy, the subsequent movement in Hungary, Translylvania, And Croatia, con jointly with the general satisfaction throughout the whale of the Austrian Empire, even Tyrol included, and the utter helplessness of its government, have within the last four months not only raised the Hungarian question to urgent European import, but in reality endowed it with the cha racter of a burning question of the day., Now, it does strike me that the position which the Bri tish Empire holds in the European community cannot allow the British people to remain silent on any such question. The giving expression to their opinions on the subject is a necessity resulting from the political standing of England as one of the leading Powers of Europe ; it is a duty at tached to the weight and influence which the public opinion of the British people has both with their own Government and abroad. There is, besides, another consideration. The short cam paign in Italy has so utterly destroyed the false prestige of power which Austria enjoyed, not only during the late Crimean, but even on the eve of the Italian war—and the reports (however imperfect) of what is passing throughout the Austrian provinces, and in Hungary in particular, have to such an extent laid bare the utter rottenness of that ab normal, artificial, and iniquitous fabric, called the Austrian Empire, that—to use the words of the Times, Dec. 27—" it is now generally acknowledged that there is no hope for the Austrian Empire, and that the Austrian rulers are carried spell-bound to destruction." Spell-bound or not, they are hurrying to destruction. Francis Joseph of Austria is now both the nuisance and the "sick man" of Europe. The opinion that there is no hope for that " sick man" is perfectly well founded. It would carry me too far were I to enter here on an ex planation in detail of the pervorsity, the stupidity, and con sequent rottenness of the system of government, the folly of which is hurrying the house of Austria to that destruc tion to which they aro doomed by their crimes. Suffice it to say, that the Austrian system of government, se far from answering any single one of the many require ments of society, is in flagrant contradiction to each and all of them. It is not conservative, but subversive of society. It substituted inextricable confusion for order, subverted security of person and property; it is in constant conflict With all those interests which are dear to man as a moral being, to man as an intellectual being, to man as a religious being, to man as a social being, to man as a citizen—it wounds the feelings of everybody, it dissatisfies everybody —it saps tho very foundation of material welfare—it blights► the gratuitous blessings of nature, arrests progress, checks commerce and industry—drains the very marrow of the people—lowers step by step the scale of subsistence, drives every class, from the highest to the lowest, towards abso lute ruin'; and while it outrages human nature by its des potic arbitrariness, and creates contempt by ilia complicated stupidity, while it tramples with wanton obstinacy on raa • tionality, liberty, law, historical rights, it can point to no thing which even the grossest egotist might regard as a slight compensation for the loss of everything which is of any value in the estimation of man. " You ask us how we are getting on with our govern- mont P 'We have no government I they are banditti, and not a government." Such are the words which you may hear from men of standing both in the clergy and laity, from men once staunch adherents of the house of Austria, who formerly belonged to what was styled the old conservative party. _ _ These words toll velumes T -and the; are not of my inven- tion; they are words which uncontrollable exasperation wrung from the lips of my former political antagonists. However, it is notorious that, notwithstanding the lesson which ho got administered to him in Italy, it is on the sword, and the sword alone, that 'Francis Joseph relies for his safety. Count Bussingen, the governor of Venetia, being at his wits' end (an bout de son latin), run up one of these days to Vienna for advice and to advise. He told the Kaiser that he cannot catch one single Italian to accept office ; that on his causing any decree to be published people answer that they don't understand German (exactly as in Hungary); that whenever a government functionary, a gendarme, or police officer makes his appearance in a community, the whole community is found "riot at'home ;" thu4 adminis tration being brought to a dead stand, the count suggested that it would be wise to grant "concessions," and not wait to be forced to them either by Congress or otherwise. Upon this the Emperor flew into a passion, and striking violently his sword, exclaimed—" I give no concessions, rather may the whole trash go to the devil." (Lieber soil der Teufel den ganzen plunder hohlen ) Again, with regard to Hungary, he is credibly reported to have used such polite expressi ons as " the fellows (die Kerin) with their clamours, as long as I have one single soldier left I shall not yield, they shall get nothing, pre cisely." And this man pretends to be the delegate of the Eternal Lord. Ina well regulated society such creatures are put in the strait- jacket ; and shall he bo let free to dispose, according to his mad fancies, of the soul, mind, body, and fortunes of thirty-six millions of human being's ? However, though this may be madness, perhaps there is method in it, because, whatsoever a recourse to timely concessions, based on a return to historical rirhts, might or might not have effected formerly, so much is certain, that his mad system has perfectly succeeded in rendering concessions too late. Be this as it may, on the sword alone he relies for maintaining himself. Forsooth, a curious reliance in a man who could so little set himself up by his sword, that he wanted 200,000 Russian bayonets to get set up. How ever, upon tho sword ho relies. Now, such a reliance wants two things —money and a devoted, reliable army. As to money, on the financial system of Austria public opinion has already passed judgment. It is in a state of bankruptcy, and that bankruptcy is coupled with " cscroquerie" (swin dling). (Remember the famous history of the surreptitious emission of bonds to the amount of one hundred and ten millions of florins). I desire ti advert to the Austrian sys tem of taxation as it is practised in Hungary. Landed pro- perty is rated at 32 per cent. (about six shillings and five pence in the pound) of not income, which is, besides, valued in the most iniquitous manner. To this tax, al ready too heavy in itself, are superadded 60 per cent, pro vincial, and 25 cent. communal supplement, together 85 per cent, of the original amount of the tax (or another 6s. sd. in the pound). Thus, this ono tax alone amounts to 12s. in every pound of revenue from landed property. £lOO income tax has to pay £603 land tax. And who could, besides, enumerate the different other items of direct and:ind irecttaxat ion; one more ruinous than anotherond for the most part,'insupportably vexatious? To give you an idea of the value I shall mention one fact. Hungary is a wine-growing country to the average amount of 340 mil lions of gallons a year. The vineyards are subject to the land tax. Again the produce is raised up to one florin on each barrel of ton gallons, which is often sold not higher than at two or three fioiins. But the matter does not yet end with thus much. Tho producer must pay " consumption tax" for drinking his own wino. His barrels are put under seal, in his own cellars, aria when the hospitable Magyar wishes to tap a fresh barrel, to entertain a chance traveller, he can not do so without the finantz, or the Jew who happens to have rented the consumption tax on the community, coming to take off the imperial seal on due payment ? Sometimes he is not disposed to go, and must be conciliated of course. To get rid of those vexations, doubly insupportable to the Hungarian, who is not yet broken to such "paternal go vernment," people Used to come to an agreement with the " finantz," paying an average by tho year for4he liberty to tap their own wine. The average is calculated upon an arbitrary valua ion of the daily consumption. Well, I know of a case whore a right rev. canon of a cathedral church—a man equally distinguished f9r his patriotism and moral and intellectual accomplishments—had his throat valuated at 200 gallons a month, or six and two-thirds gal lons a day, and had left no choice but to submit either to the robbery or to the insupportable vexation. And you can have no idea what ingenuity there is employed in de vising new titles for taxation. When, a couple of years ago, Francis Joseph made a trip to Hungary, his clever "financiers," having exhausted every imaginable title of taxation, fell on the idea of a "joy tax" (freudenstcur). From what I have said you may understand how it could have come to pass that large landed proprigtOrs offered to resign the entire use of their estates to Government on the sole condition that they should not be held responsible for the taxes. In fact, having 12 shillings in the pound to pay on a most equitable valuation, if one or another of them has some debts, he is actually a beggar ; if he has none he must make some, money is not to be had except at the exorbitant rate of 20 to'3o per cent. interest; because on account of the exorbitance and precariouness of taxation, no landed property is considered to afford security, and at that rate the• wealthiest magnate must go to the dogs in a few years. That is the fate inatAding under Austrian rule on the liberal minded patriotic Hungarian aristocracy, who in 1848 spontaneously resigned all their pi ivileges and immu nities, sacrificed the socage and other income derived from two millions of tenants, and transformed them into free holders. In fact, many of the richest landowners have already acceded to the exactions of the Government. The middle class landowners, or the other hand, formerly the bone and marrow of our agricultural country, owning their 200 to 300 acres of land, who formerly could drive their own coach and four, and keep an hosipitablo house, country life was so inexpensive and the soil so remunerative, cannot now afford to send their children to school I Land has so much fallen in value that as one instance out of thousands, I know of a landowner who, in 1817, purchased a nice little estate at £6,000. One-fourth of the sum (£1,500) was left on mortgage on the estate ; the tams came, and with them the inability of clearing the mortgage, and the estate was finally sold by auction at £1,2001 Fall in value 80 per cent. All this is heartrending to relate. AJTungarian noldemaN in a pamphlet just published in Gerniany, characterises the Austrian sYsteinof taxation in these words—" It is the most shameful, the most iniquitous system of plunder and rubbery ever known—a system which would befit the worse times of the Neros." Now it is evident that, with this system of plunder car• ried to such exorbitance, the bankrupt Amitrian Govern ment cannot have recourse t 3 raising - the taxes still higher. Taxation no longer falls on revenue ; it already affects ca pital; therefore any augmentation, instead of yielding more would yield less—perhaps nothing. This is a trite axiom of political economy. It is the old story of the goose which laid the golden eggs. Still vain is the reliance en the sword, if,the purse be empty. Then how and where go money ? Loans ?—impossible ! Who in Europe would lend them a penny, after the recent shameful " escroquerie ?" ,emains the only resourco---economy. But there at; condi- tions when even economy comes too late. Besides, that re medy would require both earnestness of purpose and time —long time. Earnestness of purpose they have none ; they cannot brook the idea of popular control ; all their affects tions of intended ec.)nomy are mere moonshine. And as to time. Why, gentlemen, to use the words of Francis Joseph, " the w:lele trash will soon have gone to the devil," before they will have so much as fixed on a pro gramme of their " economy ;" and, after all, to rely upon the sword is as much as to exclude the idea of economy. But never mind that, we are glad of it; it will simplify the process. Therefore, as far as money fs concerned, there is no hope for the Empire. Now as to the reliance on the army, I will just mention a few facts. In the late Italian war the Croats would not fight. Force and even slaughter (decimation they call it) had to be resorted to against some Croation regiments to compel them to march, and those who had marched showed so little devotion in fighting for the " young hope of Austria," the wise inventor of the Germanisation of Croatia, that I could name an Aus trian general who, during the battle of Solferino, knew no thing better to do than amuse himself with shooting at the "refractory Croats." As to the Hungarian regiments, you are aware of the fact that scarcely had the rumour of my and my companion's presence in Italy reached the Austrian camp, and before even we had addressed any -- formal proclamation to our brave countrymen, when we had already five battalions (upwards of 4,000 mon) in our camp at Acqui, Asti, and Alessandria ; and I do not fear to be contradicted when I say that in six weeks more we should have had 2.5,000 of them, and that, had the war reached Hungarian territory, the world would have seen the Austrian army in a state of utter dissolution. How far Francis Joseph of Austria may rely on the sword you may alsc.rjudge from the fact that not a few officers of the Austrian array fell by the hands, not of the enemy, but of their own men on the very battle. field. Again, as to the officers, it is notorious that on more than one occa sion the Austrian army was so ill led, and on the battle field such blunders (not to 'say more) were committed, that after the battle of Solferino, that army was actually trem bling on the brink of military mutiny. Now most of the generals against whom complaint was loudest and most general have again boon appointed to high command, and hence so universal has become the indignation of the officers that general orders had to be published (I say published, an event unprecedented in the Austrian army on such a sub ject), forbidding, under severe penalty, any remarks on the act of the Emperor. With those few facts (which I could considerably multi ply), I will leave you to judge whether I was justified in telling the people of Glasgo4, in my lecture above alluded to, that "lhe power of the Austrian dynasty is like a house built without foundation on the loose sand, because it rests neither on the love of any nation, nor even on the attach ment of the army, but merely on the brute force of military discipline—a force which may go a good distance in smooth and easy times, but will break like brittle glass by the very hands it means to bind, wheat the rallying ci y ofresurging freedom shall have removed the torpor from those silent, but not thoughtless, bayonets." No, the sword-trusting Emperor has no money, and his army will not save him. Then, what is there within the range of imagination that might yet possibly save him for a little while longer ? If foreign intervention does not, nothing will. That is the practical point of the question, gentlemen I Now it is cer tainly very gratifying to see the progress which has of late been made in the acknowledgment of the principle that in terference by foreign force is inadmissible with the right of nations to regulate their own domestic affairs, including form and manner of government. You, gentlemen, had a conspicuous share in eliciting of late an emphatic corroboration of that principle. The ac knowledgment of it has become so universal, that as the Times (Dec. 30) accurately remarked, "Government and the people—all sides, high and low, with an unanimity never before known, aro committed to the duty of upholding that fundamental principle of national independence." Com pared with 1348, this is a most auspicious progress. The principle thus universally acknowledged is so intimately connected with the best interests of England, that I trust it will long continue to constitute one of the leading max ims of British foreign policy; and I trust, occasion recur ring, it will receive a practical application in the case of Hungary, not less than in the case of Central Italy now. I would, however, beg leave to state that expressions of public opinion, to the effect that the people of Great Britain do not mean to allow of any acquiescence in an intervention of foreign force against Hungary—l say such manifesta tions of public opinion would go far towards reassuring the Hungarian nation, would nerve their energies, and would leave no doubt in their minds as to the ultimate issue. Bo this as it may, there is, I dare say, much in the cause of Hungary to recommend it to the approbation and sym pathy of all classes and parties. Those with whom religious sentiments aro paramount should not remain indifferent to the tyrannical encroach ments on the rights of the protestant church in Hungary —rights sanctioned by, law and by solemn European trea ties. It would be strange, indeed, if those who noblyraised their voice and entered their protest in the case of the boy Mortara had no word of sympathy for the Hungarian pro tostants suffering persecution and prison for the sake of re ligion, and this, too, in a country than which none has better deserved of Christendom. Men of conservative principles should remember that the cause of Hungary is.the most legitimate on earth, oven in the diplomatic acceptance of the word; historical rights, sworn compacts, diplomatic stipulations, and the sanctity of treaties, unite in condemning the usurpation of Francis Joseph of Austria, who has no title to appeal to in support of his rule—neither inheritance, nor election, nor even con rest. He is no sovereign of Hungary, but a mere:lawless intruder, set up by foreign armed intervention, the very principle of which is now generally condemned both by the people and the Government of Great Britain. Conservative men ought to remember find; not the Hungarian nation, but Francis Joseph of Austria, is the wild, reckless, anarchist who trampled down the time-hallowed institutions and his torical rights of Hungary, for the sake of shallow innova tions and foolhardy experiments which morality, justice, common sense, and experieneo, alike condemn. The friends of freedom should remember that the cause of Hungary is the cause of civil and religious liberty, of justice, and of civilisation. Statesmen of comprehensive mind should remember that, whatsoever the power of the House of Austria may or may not have been in former times, at present it is the great nuisance of Europe, the source of ever-recurring troubles, disturbances, and wars ; a nuisance without the removal of which no great pending European question can receive its definitive solution, and a settled peace and tranquility in Europe is utterly impossible. They should, besides, reflect on the perspective that again to frustrate Hungary in her aspirations to independence by any ill-advised combination of antiquated policy would be likely to drive her into the arms of Russia. And, lastly, there is one feature in the Hungarian move ment which strongly appeals to the sympathies of every sensible man. It is the mature ripeness for freedom as manifested in the unanimity of the movement, while is truly glorious. The Austrian Government exhausted every means to fan the flame of diseerd, and to keep alive mutual jealousy, between the various races, yet we see them bury ing their animosities in the grave of the past, we see them —all of then—united in heart and mind, united in will and act for common right, for common liberty.

His Rdyal Highness the General Commanding in-Chief will hold a levee at tho Horse Guards on Monday, the 23d inst., at one' o'clock. During the past few weeks recruiting for the corps of Royal Engineers, which had for sometime previously fallen off, has received a sudden impetus, and a number of skilled and intelligent young men, most of them having a knowledge of some mechani cal trade, have joined headquarters at Chatham, a class of recruits very much wanted in that branch of the service. Several of the discharged East India troops who have recent ly arrived at Gravesend, have also been enlisted and have arrived at Brompton barracks, many of them being good mechanics. Yesterday morning the troops of the line belong ing to the Indian depots attached to the third bat talion of infantry at Chatham garrison were marched from the hut barracks to the gun wharf, ,where they were exercised some time in embarking and disembarking from the Tyne, one of the vessels of war stationed in Chatham harbour which has been placed at the disposal of the military authori ties by the Admiralty. The troops, who were exer cised on this occasion without their rifles and knap sacks, were all embarked and disembarked in a re markably short period, the former practice of the officers and men in this part of their military duties having proved of the highest advantage to them. A large party of Indian engineers from the depot at Warley have airived at the Royal Engineer esta blishment, Chatham, in order to go through a course of instruction in surveying, fortification, sap ping and mining, and other engineering operations with the Royal dia. The number of Indian Engineers now at head quarters, Brompton Barracks, including officers, is 250, the whole of whom are kept from all other kinds Of military duty in order that they may devote their whole time to the study of engineering operations, with the view to their being despatched as early as possible to India, the demand for men belonging to that branch of the service being now so great t hat they can scarcely be trained - fast enough at Cha tham. •,„ During the last few days the - tUdi , in depots sta tioned in Colchester Camp have been tionsiderably strengthened by the arrival of several l'irge bodies of recruits. They have been enlisted chiefiyin the midland counties and manufacturing districts, and are a sturdy body of young men, the favourite de pots in which they are enrolled being the sth nisi leers and the 6th Regiment, which are now the strongest in camp. Several of the men who claimed their discharge in India on the transfer of power from the East India Company to the British Govern ment, and who returned home a few weeks since, have re-enlisted - and joined the several infantry de pots, increasing the aggregate force to nearly 3,000 men. The examination of candidates by the Vice-Pre sident and members of the Council of Military Edu cation for admission to the Royal Indian Military College, Addiscombe, commences on Monday next at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, and terminates on the 27th inst. The staff-sergeants and sergeants of the Royal Marines gave their annual ball on Tuesday, the 10th inst., in the Shipgun Drill Battery, a room built after the fashion of the quarter-deck of a man of-war, and which is situate at the rear of the Royal Marine Barracks, Woolwich. The entertainment was attended by the entire available portion of the• corps in garrison, as well as numbers of the Royal Artillery, the Military Train, Royal Engineers, Royal London Militia, &e. Col. Stransham, com manding the division, accompanied by his family, as well as Capt. Clavell, instructor of gun drill, and his family, and several other officers of the Royal Marines were present. The Commandant danced with the wife of one of the staff sergeants, and re mained some considerable time, and took particular interest in the festival. On his retiring from the room he was vociferously cheered by every one pre sent. There were abut 300 persons in the room, and the evening was passed in the most agreeable manner. The manufacture of Sir William Armstrong's rifled cannon at Woolwich continues with undi minished success. On Tuesday a batch of 10 9- pounders was fired at the proof-butt in the Royal Arsenal, with perfect satisfaction ; the like number on Thursday with the same result, and a similar number will be proved next week, the whole of i which are n.o leis of scientific workmansl ); TIIE LATE SUICIDE OF A NAVAL OFFICER.-- , Last night, Mr. John Humphreys, the coroner, hold an inquest at the North Briton public•house, Bedford-street, Stepney, respectLig the death of Captain Goodby, aged seventy years, who committed suicide at No. 1, Henry street, Mile-end Old Town, under very frightful circum stances. It appeared that the deceased was of independent property, and laboured under various delusions. He was frequently incoherent in his conversation, and imagined that his wife was going to place him under sore restraint. He left his residence on Monday afternoon let at Kent-place, New-Cress, Deptford, and was to have taken tea with several old acquaintances at Greenwich Hospital, but instead . of re turning he went to the house before - nam ed and asked for writing-paper, &c. lie retired to an upper room formerly , occupied . by him, where he had left some hous ehold furni ture, and subsequently he was discovered in a sitting position in an arm chair with a pistol in his right hand. The weapon had been recently discharged in the deceased's mouth, and blood was issuing copiously on the floor. He was quite a d r e c e e ea l e sed on , t g ai w n i i . dead, and had shot himself through the head. Death was instantaneous from a wound in the head. The deceased was in good circumstances, and on the table where the tle • was a "'al :d ila : P m watch and other articles, together with a letter addressed g ceased was sitting f n e e h to his wife.
