Patronised by the Prince Consort, Prince George of Cambridge, &c. " In its appearance there is a gentlemanly neatness, and an ab sence of all unsightly vulgarity. It has met with the highest appro bation in the Court circle." (See Morning Post.) This invention is an over-coat, adapted for a variable climate, composed of the purest Llama wool. The fleece of this singular animal is naturally repellent of water, yet is amply porous to admit a due escape of bodily heat, and is allowed to be lighter, softer, more durable, and more elastic, than any other description of cloth. Registered Paletots of this fabric, in colours black, blue, brown, olive, Oxford grey, &c., are to be had of their recognised agents in the country, and in London only at the extensive ware-rooms of the Patentees, who are tailors to the Court, and makers of the most fashionable plain dress garments, with Foreign and British diplo• matic and regimental uniforms. In these the same spirit for mo derate prices is maintained as exemplified by the Registered Paletot. The patronage so generally bestowed on this patented invention, has induced some unprincipled persons an attempt the fraudulent imposition of assuming a similarity of name; being an attempt to deceive the public with some' trashy substitute. A reward of Fifty Pounds is offered for the actual detection of an infringement. Messrs. Nicoll think it due to their own reputation thus respect fully to caution the Public, and to request a close observance of the address, and that each Registered Paletot is distinctly marked on the inside, H.

This article has been in general use for the last 30 years, and has been patronised by the first cutlers of Europe and America, by all of whom it is pronounced to be the only article that will give to the razor a keen and smoothe edge, and make shaving a luxury. The American Institute for the Encouragement of Science awarded to the inventor of this article a silver medal in token of their approval of the invention. This strop may be obtained of the principal cutlers in London and Paris. Manufactory, 25, Strand. TALES OF A. GRANDFATHER.—PF.OPLE'S EDITION.

Her Majesty's Theatre opened last evening for the season, under the same management as last year, but under a new proprietorship. Mr. Lumley is no longer merely the lessee, lie is the proprietor of Her Majesty's Theatre, and sincerely do we congratulate the habitués of the Italian Opera on that fact. From the moment that Mr. Lumley became lessee, a change a great and salutary change was observed in the character of the performances. Her Majesty's Theatre became, what it always ought to have been, the first lyrical theatre in Europe. Since Mr. Lumley has become proprietor, as great a change has taken place in the fitting up of the interior of the house. The theatre has been entirely redecorated, and instead of trle pit and the boxes presenting a mere deal mass of white paint, with a small gold ornament in the centre of each panel, they are now painted in encaustic, in medalions from the master-pieces of Raffaelle, Anniable Carracci, Guilio Romano, and from the antique, the spaces between the medalions being filled up by the richest arabasque work. The ceiling is an imitation of that of the Villa Madonna, which was designed by Raffaelle and Guilio Romano, to which have been added the Aurora of Guido and the Elements by Albano. The proscenium is most gorgeously, yet at the same time most tastefully, decorated. The boxes havebeen newly tined with chintz, and the old red curtains and hangings have been removed, and new curtains and hangings of a rich amber satin substituted for them. A new and magnificent cut-glass chandelier, with the lights inside the drops, has been substituted in place of the old one, and altogether the interior of the theatre is perhaps the most magnificent, and at the same time the most tasteful in the world. It is worthy of the aristocracy of a great nation. As we before said, the theatre opened for the season last evening, and shortly before eight o'clock Mr. Balfe, the new conductor, took his seat in the orchestra, and was warmly welcomed on his appearance. The opera chosen for the opening was Verdi's Nabuco (produced here under the name of Nino.) There is always some difficulty in uamarvelling the plot of an opera, and therefore we-are-right glad-iehen the author (as in the present instance) has been kind enough to develop his plot in the in:roduction to his libretto, which he has done as follows : Diodorus asserts, that Ninus was the first King of Assyria, but it would seem that he confounds him with his father Bettis, It is, however, certain that he was one of the most renowned conquerors of Assyria ; having, in the space of 17 years, subdued numberless countries from Egypt to India and Mactriana. Many historians, ac cording to Rollin relate that Ninus made use of the Assyrians to enslave the Babylonians, and it is on this belief, that the following story is founded :—The first act then of Ninus, after having made his triumphal entry into Babylon, is to profane the temple of Isis, and to lead the principal inhabitants of the conquered city, prisoners to Nineveh. Fenena, the daughter of Ninus, is appointed Regent here, during her father's absence, but Abigail, !a slave and a supposed daughter of Ninus, is intriguing to attain that dignity for herself. Ninus, however, having succeeded in completely subdtting the Babylonians, returns in time to frustrate her ambitious designs. But inflated by pride, he at last cannot endure that even a god should be worshipped in prefer ence to him. Heaven, offended by his overweening arrogance, causes hint to be struck by a thunderbolt, which reduces him to a state of imbecility. Taking advantage of this Abigail tells him that Fenena has embraced the religion of the Babylonians, and prevails upon him to sign her death-warrant. Ninus, overcome by the weight of his misfortunes, in vain implores pity from the proud, relentless Abigail; she, however, only answers hint with reproaches for her abject birth. The auspicious hour at length arrives. Ninus, struck with repentance, invokes the god of his enemies, pardons them, saves his daughter, and once more resumes his royal sceptre. So much for the plot. The cast was as fidlows . :— Ninus (King of the Assyrians), Sig. Fornasari ; Idaspe, (a de scendoit of the ancient Kings of Babylon), Sig. Corelli ; Orotaspe, (a Slave, supposed to be the eldest Daughter of Ninus), Signora San chioli; Fenena (Daughter of Niiras), Signora Corbari; an Assyrian Priest, Sig. Giubilei ; Abdallo (an old officer of the King of the As syrians), Sig. I)ia Fiori ; Anna (Sister of Orotaspe), Signora Bellini. In the first part the scene takes place in Babylon; the others in Nineveh. It will be seen, from the above list of the characters, that two ladies, Signora Corbari and Signora Sanchioli, appeared last evening, for the first time, on the boards of her Majesty's Theatre. Signora Corbari possesses a soprano voice of great sweetness; but, as it struck us, of no great power, although on this point it is scarcely possible to form a judgment at present, as it was evident that last night she was dreadfully nervous, and failed to do justice to herself at the commence ment of the opera; but she gathered courage as she pro ceeded, and in the last act she gave the beautiful and deli cate air, "Oh? dischinso e it firmamento," in the most ex auisite manner imagiaable, and was rapturously en cored. Of Signora Sanchioli we can speak without any hesitation, possessing a good person, expressive and beautiful features, great histrionic powers, pro found musical knowledge, and a voice, which for power, compass, and cultivation, can only be compared to Malibran's. Her 's has been the most successful debut at her Majesty's Theatre since the memorable debut of Griai ; and we hail Signora Sanchioli as the future prima donna assoluta. We had formed great expectations of Verdi from hearing his Ernani last. season, and these expectations have been more than realised by his Nino. To the graceful melody of the Italians be unites the profound learning of the Germans; his choruses are full, massive, harmonious as those of Weber or Beethoven ; his melodies are graceful as those of Bellini or Donizetti, without the thinness of the former, or the plagiarism of the latter. Nino is the greatest Italian opera that has been produced since Semirantide. In the character of his genius, Verdi ap proaches nearer Mozart than any other composer; there is the same profound knowledge of orchestral resources, and the same tasteful appropriation of delicate melody. He has already done great things, but what he has already done will be as nothing in comparison with what he will do, if he devotes himself steadily to his art, and writes as he has hitherto dared, for the purpose of producing an opera that is a work great aeld complete as a w 4 6 ,15, as contradis tinguished from a s‘riee-'uf solos, duets, and trios, con cocted to minister to the vanity of certain singers, and connected together by a series of musical common places which have been too often produced, and too often applauded, too, under the name of an opera. The opera of Nino is a great work—a complete work—so complete that it is almost impossible to particularise or to point out " the gem of the opera," as it is called. The opera itself is " one entire and perfect chrysolite"—a work which, to be duly appreciated, must be heard again and again—a work in which every connoisseur will revel—uniting as it does, the beauties of the Italian and the German schools. We have spoken of the histrionic powers of Signora San chioli. Her acting, as Abigail, the slave Empress, was most artistical ; there was all the pride, the waywardness, the self-will, the decision of the despot, but it was the despot who had been a slave. There was not the calm dignity of conscious power, but the head long fiery impatience of contradiction of the slave usurper This was a touch of nature, finely conceived; and most artis tically developed. Fornasari's Ninus was very fine—superior even to his Belisario. In the first two acts nothing could exceed the reckless haughtiness and pride of his demeanour in the earlier scenes, until his crown is struck from his head by lightning. His look of horror when this took place, and his subsequent maniac scenes were terrifically true to nature. In the third act his humility to Abigail, as he beseeches her to spare Fenena, was most pathetic • and when at last his reason is restored, and the old man, once more getting possession of his sword, marches at the head of his troops to dethrone the usurper, Fornasari was magnificent—taken as a whole, it is not often that an opera so excellent in itself, and so excellently sup ported throughout, is produc e d even at Her Majesty's Theatre. The National Anthem having been sung, the new ballet of Catarina was produced, thz plot of e, hich, as circu lated in the theatre, is as follows : This Ballet comprises a passage in the life of the great painter, Salvator Rosa—whose story, like his pictures, is highly picturesque, and has a dreamy distance, affording full scope to the imagination of the observer, and ample latitude for any appropriate supposititious addition. , The Italian Painter had a most venturous existence—one moment engaged in a nocturnal duel under the very walls of the Vatican ; at another, in open day, at Naples, heading a band of ar tistic brethren in the cause of Italian liberty, in the Insurrection of Masaniello, against the Spanish oppressors of the land. But the ha bitual resorts of Salvator Rosa were the glens and fastnesses of the mountains, where he sought congenial inspiration for the composi tion of his pictures ;—such a taste had he for this scenery, that it gave rise to the assertion, that he had been himself a brigand—a calumny historians have triumphantly disproved : As the ballet begins, Salvator, in one of his excursions in search of the picturesque, has fallen into the hands of the brigands ; they are _ . engaged in . robt;ing his person ; over these reckless men his skaches . . scattered about fail to exercise the same influence Ludovico Ariosto's poetry did in similar circumstances. But soon arrives one, in whose bosom exists a deep and innate admiration for art ; it is Catarina, the daughter of a captain of banditti, who, at her father's death, has inherited his power over the brigands of the mountain, and whose lieutenant and aide-de-camp is Diavolino, a young brigand, full of daring and fertile invextion, and secrely in love with his fair captain. Catarina releases Salvator Rosa, and he feels so deep an interest in her, that he advises her to abandon her dangerous career and follow him to more peaceful scenes. This Catarina refuses, and Salvator retires with deep regret. But soon the mountain fastness where Catarina marshals her chosen body of Amazons, is beleaguered by troops. Catarina and Diavolino fly after a hard conflict, when resistance becomes unavailing—and they take refuge at an inn at the gates of Rome, where they bribe the host to conceal them, and disguise them in garments of more peaceful aspect. They are hardly travestied before the troops arrive with their pri soners; part of the soldiers come in to take refreshment, and are served by Catarina, who soon attracts their attention by her graceful bounding steps, and their boisterous applause excites the curiosity of the other soldiers without, who one by one join their comrades. Diavolino avails himself of this op portunity to liberate his companions, at the report of whose flight the soldiers rush out and pursue them. But Cata rina and Diavolino themselves are shortly pursued again ; after various adventures they take refuge, led by Catarina's partiality, in the studio of Salvator, at the very moment he is a prey to regretful reminiscence of the bold mountain beauty. Here, however, they are again traced ; Salvator strives to save them from their pursuers, but Catarina is ultimately seized and taken to prison. Here Diavo lino, who has escaped, com es to deliver her, brit devoured by jea lousy, he seeks N en force the condition of her never seeing S a l va t or Rosa, whom he swears he will kill at the first opportunity. Catarina rejects this condition, Dia volino relents—the y escape. Then the scene changes to the masqu ed revels of the Carnival. Here Cata rina joins the mummers disguised as an Enchantress, to warn Sal vator against the designs of his enemy ; her warnings, however, are unavailing. Diavolino attacks Salvator, and is on the point of kill ing him, when Catarina rushes between them—receives the fatal blow destined to her lover, and the ballet concludes with her death.

NORTH NOTTLNGHAMSHIRE.-Mr. Bailey, the Conservative proposer of the Earl of Lincoln, has issued the following ad dress : TO THE FREEHOLDERS OF THE NORTHERN DIVISION OF NOTTINGHAMSHIRE. Gentlemen,-Liiciiglisdilretaitiii4&opinion expressed by me at the day of nomination, that th• election of Lord Lincoln as the representative of this division, might with comparative ease, and at small expense, have been secured, had prompt and efficient means been adopted for accomplish ing so desirable an object; yet wow finding that his Lord ship's disinclination to be brought forward has created a considerable objection among the influential friends of free trade in this district to enter upon a contest, and being un willing to occasion to Lord H. Bentinck any unnecessary trouble or expense, such as would be unavoidble upon the carrying on an election, I have to request, as a particular favour that the friends of Lord Lincolniwill altogether abstain from tendering votes for him at any of the polling-places of the division, in order that as little excitement and trouble may be occasioned to any one as is possible under existing circumstances. " I am, Gentlemen, yours most obediently, " Basford, March 2, 1846." "THOMAS BAILEY. Lord Henry Bentinck's friends believe, that had the Earl - been bond fide in the field a week before the election, he would have stood a fair chance of being returned ; the weight of votes in the southern part of the division would have over balanced those of the "Dukeries" in the northern part of the division. Notwithstanding this address of Mr. Bailey, elec tors in the southern part, who are unshackled, determined to record their honest conviction and unsullied votes, and polled. In the northern part no polling for the Earl took place. The poll will close this ( Wednesday) afternoon. It is much to be feared that Mr. Bailey's indiscreet act has done injury to the Liberal cause; though no one doubts his sin cerity and anxious desire to have served a good cause, that of assisting to extinguish the corn-laws, and also to have somewhat healed the wounds- , of a persecuted nobleman, who is a bright ornament to his country. By arrangement between Mr. Bailey and the agents of Lord H. Bentinck, on Monday, Mr. B. issued the foregoing address, with the un derstanding that his Lordship should pay the whole ex pense of the poll booths. By this arrangement, of course, Lord Henry saved much in bringing up the whole of his voters. Upon the whole it bas seen a curious jingle. But corns a fair contest when it may, the house of Welbeck will find that the attempt to upheld monopoly and the exaction of considerably increased tithes will tell. When the deputa tion waited upon Lord Lincoln last Saturday night (of which the public are already aware), they were modest enough to put into writing his entire disavowal of having been at all cognizant of his nomination.

ROWLAND'S KALYDOR, an eminently balsamic preparation, is equally celebrated for its safety in application, as for its mild and soothing operation, in thoroughly purifying the skin of all redness, pimples, spots, freckles, tan, and discolourations ; producing a healthy freshness and transparency of complexion ; and an. admired softness and delicacy on the hands, arms, and neck! . In cases of chilblains, chapped skin, or incidental inflammation, it 13 pre-eminently successful, and gentlemen after shaving will find it allay all irritation and tenderness of the skin, and render it soft, smooth, and pleasant. Balmy, odoriferous, and creamy, its purifying and refreshing properties have obtained its exclusive selection by the Court and the Royal Family of Great Britain, and those of the Conti nent of Europe, together with the "elate" of the aristocracy, and "haute volee." Its high reputation induces unprincipled shopkeepers to offer the spurious " Kalydors" for sale, composed of mineral astringents, utterly ruinous to the complexion, and by their repellant action en dangering health. It is, therefore, imperative on purchasers to see that the words "Rowland's Kalydor" arc on the envelope (an en graving of exquisite beauty from a steel plate by Messrs. Perkins, Bacon, and Co.) and that A. ROWLAND and SON, 20, Hatton garden, are engraved (by authority) on the Government Stamp affixed on each bottle. Price 4s. 6d. and Ss. 6d. per bottle.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. shouldSlß S I be sorry to enter into the private misunder standings of a amily in the columns of a newspaper, but when they are of a public nature and materially concern the public, then it is another matter. Thus so far I have ex plained myself. Now, Sir, I cannot agree with those who are disposed and think it right to throw upon Lord Lincoln the entire fault of the issue bet s een his father and himself The Earl is not a minor beneath the roof of his father; why, then, let me ask, is he, in his political opinion (and as a Minister of the Crown, too,) to be subjected to the dictation—much more the control—of the Duke? Where is the person who will be bold enough to assert that the father did not first throw down the gauntlet? And did not the Duke follow up his strong feeling by the publication of his letter" To the Inha bitants of South Nottinghamshire," on the 17th ult.? Let us have the matter in a correct light, and not endeavour to prejudice the son for the purpose of " protection " to the father.—Yours obediently, TRUTH. Nottinghamshire, March 3, 1846. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Reading, March 3. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron PLalv.) Thomas Fowler, aged 46, was charged with the man slaughter of Joseph Barnett, at Abingdon, on the 22d of January last. _ _ Mr. J. Williams appeared for the prosecution, and the defence was conducted by Mr. Carrington and Mr. Tyrrwhitt. This case, which has, it is understood, excited very great interest in this county, came on for trial to-day : The pri soner, who surrendered in discharge of his bail, is a man of very respectable appearance. He is a maltster, in large business at Abingdon, and had borne, up to the unfortunate occurrence which led to the present inquiry, an excellent character, and was considered to possess a kind, good, and humane temper. The deceased (Barnett) was once in the prisoner's employment, but had been discharged. The counting-house of the prisoner is situated on a broad pave ment on the banks of the Thames, at Abingdon, and is closed with two folding doors, one of which folds back again upon itself against the wall. On the morning of the 22d of Jan uary last, a man named Middleton noticed deceased, with whom he was unacquainted, walking up and down the wharf opposite the prisoner's house, when the latter came out, and as the witness stated, the two spoke together, from what he saw, for he could not hear what passed. The deceased seemed to be conducting himself towards Mr. Fowler in a provokir , manner. Mr. Fowler then returned into the house, and shut the door, when the deceased went up to the door, and shoved against it with his shoulder. The door I then opened, but it was not possible to say whether from the force exerted against it outside, or tram Fowler's having opened it from within. The two met again, and the witness stated that the deceased held up his hands in a sort of threat ening attitude, being at the time quite near enough to have hit the prisoner, but the witness did not see any blow given, until he saw the prisoner seize up an iron shovel and strike the deceased with it on the right side of the head. This blow made the deceased fall, and on being taken home, after a little delay, he expired hi about an hour. At this stage of the proceedings the Learned JUDGE inti mated that the case bore much the aspect of being merely one of self-defence. The deceased might have struck the prisoner, whose humane character should be considered,and he, to keep the deceased off, struck the blow which deprived him of life, and which no man probably more deeply deplored than the . prisoner himself. The Learned Counsel for the prosecution acquiesced in his Lordship's view of the case. The jury immediately acquitted the prisoner—a verdict received with applause, which was in stantly suppressed. THE COURTS AT READING.—At the conclusion of the above case the grand jury entered the Court, and having handed in some bills, the Chairman then stated that the grand jury were desirous of making a presentment to his Lordship, which Mr. Bellamy, the clerk of the arraigns, read. It alleged the extreme inconvenience of the present courts held both at the assizes and the sessions in Guy's-hall, Reading ; and described them as insufficient and incommo dious to judges, juries, counsel, and witnesses. The grand jury then proceeded strongly to recommend that new courts should be erected. Most sincerely do we hope this will have its due effect, as the Courts here are uncomfortable and in convenient on this circuit. — Benjamin Chapman, aged 28, was charged with having, on the 29th of December last, set fire to and destroyed an outhouse and other buildings, the property of a man and his two sons, named Partridge, at Wantage. Mr. Tyrrwhitt and Mr. J. J. Williams appeared for the prosecution, and the prisoner was defended by Mr. Car rington. The prisoner, who was nicknamed the Sea Ape, it would seem was, on the night in question, at a public-house called the Shoulder of Mutton, kept by a Mr. Airey. At nine, however, he quitted it. At eleven the same night, the land lady heard a noise of kicking and a cry of fire at the door, which she opened, and saw the prisoner running off knock ing at the neighbours' doors, and crying fire. She called out to him, " Ape, you are the first who gave me the alarm of fire last time, and so you are now." He made no reply, but continued running. She heard her husband come out and ask where the fire was, when the prisoner said, " Back of Partridge's house." At two the next morning she again saw him, and made an observation about the alarm to him. The same evening Mr. Airey heard the alarm and went to the door, and also saw the prisoner running along and crying fire, and on asking him where, was told in Partridge's yard. He ran up there, and saw a little fire which he thought lie could have put out with a pail of water. The fire could certainly not have been seen from the street. The flames soon became stronger. In about five minutes after he had returned home he heard the church bells ringing. Joseph Partridge was alarmed by cries of fire. He looked out of the window and saw the fire arising from the shed, where they kept several stacks of wook. He im mediately got up, ran to the spot, and found a great fire. There was nothing to keep any one out of the yard, as there was a road from which a path ran on one side of his garden. A man named Lawrence went up at the same time as Airey, and saw the fire about the size of a bushel. A Mr. Belsher, seeing the fire, went to the parish clerk to alarm him ; he was looking out of the window, and then left. In a few mi nutes more, perhaps eight, he heard the bells ring. All this was after the alarm had been given at the Shoulder of Mutton. The prisoner was taken up, when he made a voluntary state ment. He said he was at home in bed with his brother on the night in question, and was alarmed by church bells ring ing. He got up and saw fire. His brother went down first. He then went and alarmed various people. Told no one where the fire was. Went to the fire and assisted. His brother was alleged to be idiotic ; yet the magistrates had, after questioning him respecting his understanding the nature of an oath, allowed him to be sworn and to give evi dence. He was not present this day, and his absence was commented upon by the Learned Judge. Cox, who lived next door to the prisoner, was alarmed by the bells, and went down, and saw Richard Chapman. He went to the fire and saw the prisoner there. The prisoner had said in the wit ness's presence, at the magistrates office, that he had met him that night. There was some evidence given to contradict the prisoner's statement, which was clearly at variance with what several witnesses had sworn. Mr. CARRINGTON addressed the jury on behalf of the pri soner, contending that no motive was shown to have existed against the party whose property is burned. Mr. Baron PLATT summed up; and the jury, after about one minute's deliberation, returned a verdict—acquitting the prisoner. NAVAL UNIFORM.—PORTSSIOI3TH, MONDAY, MARCH 3. —The reported alteration in the officers' uniform is stated, 133 a member of the Board of Admiralty, to be settled, and will be pro mulgated to the fleet in a few days. The following particulars are from an authentic source, and may be considered correct ; —Mates, second-masters, assistant-surgeons (confirmed), and passed clerks, to have one epaulette and a separate mess place ; masters, surgeons, and pursers to have two epaulettes ; lieutenants to have an anchor on the epaulette ; commanders to have a crown on the epaulette ; cap tains, under three years' post-rank, to have a crown and anchor — above that rank a star in addition ; rear, vice, and full admirals to have an alteration in the arrangement of the stars on the epaulettes, and in addition to the band of gold lace on the cuff, to have one, two, or three embroidered gold stars, according to the rank of the officers. MARGATE, MARCH 3.—A sale of land took place at the York Hotel, Margate, yesterday by public auction, the land by no means of a first-rate character ; the laud all arable, some on the cliff, and of course subject to the blight of the east wind ; and although no farm buildings are attached to the land, and no part being Available for building ; so much do the agriculturist fear the new tariff, that the land eagerly fetched 781. per acre.

SIR RICHARD HFNEGAN'S SEYEN YEARS' CAM PAIGNING IN THE PENINSULA AND THE NETHERLANDS."—This is One of the best, by which we mean the most interesting, descriptive accounts of the wild adventures and alternate scenes of active'en joyment and severe suffering, which necessarily make up the mingled web of the soldiers life en service. It is written in the best form for a narrative of this kind—that of a personal journal or diary, in which the author himself is the spectator and reporter of all that he relates. He accompanies the Dnke of Wellington, and the chiefs of the divisions through the scenes of the peninsula campaigns ; he is with the army in many hard-fought battles; and by the peculiar nature of his service, that of Ordnance Commissary, has frequently' to walk over the field of battle after the victory is won, and to super intend the removal of the dead or wounded officers to the nearest town or fixed quarters. Some of the most interesting parts of his journal are his passing sketches of the early life and character of some of these officers, his former comrades, whom he found dead or dying on the fatal field. These sketches are written in the off-hand manner of a soldier, and are full of life and freshness.--ifessenger. [ ADVERTISEMENT.] -A GUARANTEED CURE FOR ASTHMA, OLD COUGHS, AFFECTIONS OF THE CHEST, &C., BY HOL LOWAY'S Prxxs.—Recently some extraordinary experiments have been made upon various patients suffering for long periods under most dir ressing asthmatic complaints, while others were affected with indigestion, acidity, sickness, soreness, and a sinking at the stomach, producing symptoms that frequently terminated in dropsy and ether dangerous diseases.

His Royal Highness, Prince Albert, attended by Major-General Sir Edward Bowater and Dr. Prcetorius, left Osborne House, for Ryde, on Monday afternoon, embarking at Meade's Hole, in the Fairy steam yacht, soon after two o'clock. The Prince disembarked at the same place between four and five o'clock. The Queen, accompanied by their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, and attended by the Dowager Lady Lyttelton, took a carriage airing on Monday afternoon. Major-General Wemyss, Equerry in Waiting, was in attendance on horseback. The Countess of Mount Edgecumbe, Lady in Waiting, left Osborne House on Monday, in consequence ef the illness of the Lady Elizabeth Fielding, her mother. The Countess crossed, by steam-packet, to Southampton, and proceeded to London. There was ne additiou to the royal dinner party at Osborne House on Monday evening. Her Majesty and her Royal Consort took their usual early prome nade yesterday in the pleasure-grounds of Osborne House. The Royal Family were taken on the beach yesterday morning. Iltr Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent visited the Duchess of Gloucester yesterday. Ells Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge visited the Royal Duchess on Wednesday at Gloucester House. The Earl of Aberdeen and the Earl of Ripon had interviews with Sir Robert Peel yesterday. Lord Granville Somerset, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, was rather better yesterday. Mr. Higham, Secretary and Comptroller-General to the Commis sioners for the Reduction of the National Debt, had as interview with the Chancellor of the Exchequer yesterday, at his official resi dence in Downing-street. Dispatches for the Governor-General. of Canada, and also fbr the Governors of the other North American provinces, were sent off yes terday evening from the Colonial-office. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. TUESDAY EVENING. TIMES.—The news from America, published this morning, took the City completely by surprise, and produced a fall of almost 1 per cent. in Consols, from which they but slightlyrecovered at all in the coarse of the day. The closing price of ye-terday for the Account was 96% to 97, and the concluding price of to-day 96 1 ,{ to %, but they were done at 95% . With the exception of this very marked effect, it has been unusually difficult to collect in detail any opinions respectiug this news. People here are mostly disposed to regard the whole as a cohtinuation of that tone of bravado which the House of Representa tives, under the auspices of the President, Mr. Polk, has hitherto maintained ; and to hope, therefore, that the same feeling will not be exhibited in the Senate. But the most anxious question discussed here to-day has turned upon what course is likely to be taken by our Government, should the notice to abandon the Oregon territory be actually given—that is, whether such notice would be followed by an immediate hostile manifestation, or whether that would be reserved till the twelve months had expired. From observations that have dropped from Sir Robert Peel it is erroneously inferred, that, in how ever courteous a manner this notice might be conveyed, it would be immediately resented ; and therefore the feeling which the news has produced was, ou the whole, a very uneasy one. The premium on gold at Paris is 12% per mile, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10%d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 46 ; and the exchange at Paris en London at short being 25 6.5, it follows that gold is 0.74 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 434% per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10%d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 9% ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 11%, it follows that gold 11 0.80 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 106% per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 1.08 per cent. against England. But the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. DOVER, MARCH 3.—Yesterday evening a great ban quet was given at Ostend by the Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs, at the Town-hall, in honour of the inauguration of their post-elEce packet service between Ostend and Dover. layitations were kindly sent to the Mayor and Aldermen of Dover, tb. Belgian Consul, tothe collector of customs and others, also to the directors of the South-East ern Railway Company. It is to he regretted, however, that from un avoidable circumstances none of the members of the corporation were enabled to attend ; and absence from Dover on official business pre vented the collector of the customs from attending the summons. The Belgian Consul, with some few others, among whom was Mr. Waghorn, crossed the water yesterday, and had the houour of being present at a most sumptuous and hospitable entertainment. The Town-hall was handsomely decorated, and the spacious and elegant suite of apartments which it contains brilliantly lighted up. About sixty sat down to dinner at half-past six o'clock, at which the Baron Serclaas, Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, presided. The company comprised the heads of the several public departmeats in the town, naval and military officers, the Mayor of Ostend, and civil authorities; and the band of the Ist regiment of the line at tended in an adjoining apartment during the dinner, playing some thehearthsseparated M ofrWg lis Majestyb aboutm Dinge c excellent ie pi Leopold, ece thepieces of Queens e r f After e giEvnEngland dinner r ecompany and th Belgium, and one or two others, w music. ten o'clock.

DETENTION OF TRAINS.—On Sunday afternoon an accident occurred on the Great Western Railway, which. although not attended by serious consequences, occasioned considerable in convenience to passengers wishing to proceed upwards on the line from Bridgewater to Paddington. It appears from what can be ascertained, that the train which left Exeter at a quarter to one o'clock T.M. met with an accident at Bridgewater, in consequence of the in by which the train was detained for two hours and a quarter, wait ing for engi ne from Taunton to convey it to Bristol. The eng a luggage e (the Fire Fly) having burst one of the tubes of her boiler, passengers at the Bath station, who were anxiously waiting for the up-train, having complained loudly of the inconvenient position they were placed in by its non-arrival, were forwarded to Swindon Junc tion, to meet the branch train from Gloucester and Cirencester. On their arrival the Swindon engine conveyed them to Paddington, where they arrived at about half-past nine ; the Exeter train did not arrive at its destination (Paddington) until nearly a quarter to eleven o'clock, its time being thirty-five minutes after eight, making a delay of two hours and ten minutes. STRANGE AFFAIR ON THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY. —At about midnight on Monday the policeman who has charge of the Abbott's Cliff tunnel, near Fol k stone, in passing through towards Dover, was startled on seeing a white figure about the centre of the tunnel. He immediately hastened to the spot, and on coming up to it discovered it to be a female, standing between the rails on the down side of the line. For some time she rettsed to answer any questions as to how she became in so dangerous a situation, and appeared to be in a very desponding state of mind. Eventually, however, on her way to Folkstone, she stated that she had gone into the tunnel to be killed by the train. It has since been ascertained that she is of weak intellect, and had escaped from some private lunatic asylum in the vicinity of Folkstone. It was a fortunate circumstance that the policeman discovered her at the time he did, as the up train from Dover shortly afterwards passed, and from the position she was found in, had she remained, she would have been cut to pieces. It is sup posed that she must have got access to the tunnel by climbing up the sea wall from the beach. Her Mends are said to live at Dover. We are authorised to state that a vote of censure has been passed by the Council of the College of Surgeons upon Mr Law rence for the intemperate expressions made use of by him in his late Hunterian oration.—Times. _ _ SIR ROBERT SALE —The death of Sir Robert Sale, head Colonel of the 13th (Prince Albert's) Light Infantry, has cast a gloom on the whole regiment, he having been much respected and beloved by all of this brave regiment who had the honour of serving under him. The following is an extract from regimental orders:— " REGIMENTAL ORDERS BY LIEUTENANT-COLONEL SQUIRE, COMMAND ING 13TH, OR 'MINCE ALBRET'S LIGHT INFANTRY. news, r u an st t rec C ei ol y o e n d el , ‘.Widmer Barracks, Feb. 23. feeelitongsthoef regiment e im d e e n ep t e t Squire is withno announces es action with the Seikhs. of the fall of their distinguished C olonel, Sir Robert Sale, G.C.8., la " It would be superfluous commenting on the deeds of one so re nowned in the history of our country ; but it must ever be a source of honest pride to every soldier of the 13th to remember that Sir u Robert Sale led the reg iment in many a hard-fought field, and th at his guidance ant' gall ant leadershi p it won those bad ges and h ono urs which now so pre-eminently distinguish Prince Alb ert ' s Li g ht Infantry.

The three standards taken by the 13th in Affghanistan were con veyed by their gallant captors to London on Monday last, and lodged in Chelsea Hospital, amidst the colours of all nations, some of which were taken at an early period of our history. The band of the 13th played the two brave sergeants out of Weimer barracks on the Dover-road to the tune of " See the conquering hero comes." - • bd, ; and 53. for all above.
