The King of PRUSSIA has replied to the Breslau Address, which besought him to follow a more peaceful course ; but it cannot be said that his MA JESTY holds out any very certain hope of attaining the desired end. He declares that he wishes to fulfil their desires, and only the duty of defending " Prussia and her sacred rights" included him to arm the people. This sounds very grand in a despatch, but in reality there is not much meaning in it, because we never heard that Schleswig-Hol stein was in any way connected with the sacred rights of Prussia, and that is the real secret of the present fracas. As for the other question, namely, the dispute between the Crown and the Chambers, the KING affirms that it is his earnest wish and aim to adjust the differences between them. The KING hopes that in " convoking" the Prussian Diet con flicting views on" questions of right may be recon ciled in the general self-sacrifice for the defence of Fatherland." Of course we all know what this means, that the Deputies are to forego the interests of those who send them to the House, in order to satisfy the desire of the KING for war. This dodge was very unsuccessfully tried by Herr BISMARCK on the occasion of the Danish War, but it may be done once too often, as the wily Minister will doubt less find to his cost. We hear of nothing on the part of the KING that offers a prospect of the Crown and Government putting aside their views for the sake of the community, and after all the pomp and parade of this reply is provoked, what do we find it to express really ? Very little at all except to say that the authorities will have their way coute qui coute, and that the people may just keep silence, for little or no heed will be paid to their discourses or to their petitions. From Vienna we hear that no disinclination is felt, by the Government to take part in a Congress, but it wishes that no " definite plan for negotiation should be laid down," and that only a " general en deavour" is to beiregarded as the object held in view. Now this seems exactly the reverse of the plan proposed by those now officiating. They seem disiinctly to require that some de cided rule be laid down previously to anything being undertaken in the way of arrangement. 'Aus tria is, of course, averse in some degree to a Con- °Tess 7 on account of the extreme awkwardness of 0 the Venetian question, and, therefore, she will no doubt interpose all the obstacles that she possibly can in the way of coming to a settlement. The Provincial Correspondenz, of Berlin, said yesterday that neither Prussia nor Italy have any objection to a Congress, although they have little hopes of a favourable result being attained by it. It also admits that there seems little likelihood of fixing a " basis of negotiation," because of Austria's unwillingness. In consequence of all this the armaments cannot be discontinued, and a " state of suspense" cannot be long endured ; this doubtless would intimate that war will soon ensue. A telegram from Berlin to Vienna yesterday evening announced that the proposed Congress would make no difference in the " military position" assumed by Prussia. All tends in the same direction, and in view of much unsa satisfactory intelligence how can we place any re liance on the issue ? If it take place at all, we do not see how it can possibly affect the objects in view, for if Austria will not be persuaded in the matter of Venetia, and if Prussia obstinately adheres to the Schleswig-I-lolstein mania, of what avail will it be that the various Powers assemble and delibe rate? The Constitutionnel of yesterday publishes an article that is headed " The Peaceful Policy of the Empire." In this it states the French Government have taken the initiative in the affair of the Con gress, and has invited the neutral Powers of Eng land and Russia to join with it in working for the interests of peace. This journal adds :—" Diplo matic communications are being carried on be- tween the three Courts to settle the form which this [step shall take, and _the mo ment when the attempt shall be made. The Moniteur of last night alSo affords us an insight into affairs. It declares that three contracting parties in the Conference, England, France, and Russia, have considered it necessary to state the questions to be submitted to :the Conference in order to give the step they had undertaken a useful character." The three Cabinets, however, disclaim being " arbiters" of-the differences, but they only mean to "propose the basis of certain deliberations, and to direct the discussions of the Conference to the points, con stituting, in their opinion, the cause of the collision." How can this be reconciled with the objections raised by Austria as to any plan being proposed for deliberation. The Powers hope to send the Note to the kingdoms who are mixed up in this dispute in a very short time. La France states that Conference cannot meet for three weeks yet, if then, and we quite agree with them. The real danger now is, that the state of military pre paration is so far advanced, and the different people are so inflamed and excited that it will be found almost impossible to keep them back, and to restrain their ardour. As for the Austrians, they do not se em to care at all for peace now that they have been so fully raised, and now that their po s i_ tion is so much improved in many respects. As for the Italians they are wild for war, and seem almost w hether the other confli c ti ng Powers determin p e rdocoen it, proceed to ex tremities or not. It is, of course, very difficult in this awkward st a t e of thi ngs to foretel what may or may not occur, but we may all probability be too state. The Congress will in safely affirm that matters ar e in a very unpropitious late to effect any very beneficial result, shall l oo k upon any peace th a t may e of a very t rans i ent an d ill usor y character. su as and only we The Hibernian has arrived with news from New York up to the 11th of the month, and it tells us that the report of STEPHENS' arrival at that city was correctly founded. He reached New York on the 10th of May in the steamer Napoleon, and met with an enthusiastic reception from the Irish. It is said that he has been elected General Head-Centre, O'MAHONY having re s i gned his post after re mov i ng KILLIAN, against whom he appears to have an especial animosity, from the post of treasurer. The subscriptions form so important a part of the affairs of the Fenians, that the removal from such au THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 24, 1866. office is no doubt a matter of substantial regret. STEPHENS is staying at one of the large hotels in New York, entertaining great numbers of visitors and being the hero of the hour. He has commenced his labours as peace-maker, by declaring that if the Fenians in America will only cease their disputes and dissensions they can be fighting the British in Ireland itself within a twelvemonth. It is rumoured that under his influence the contending factions are I becoming reconciled, principally because he has assumed the recognised headship, and there is therefore less room for the rivalry and jealousy which has been the ruin of the cause. There is happily not much fear of their being able to do any serious mischief, although they have unfortunately an unusual opportunity for stirring up angry feelings between the populations on the borders owing to the termination of the Reciprocity Treaty, and the consequent mutua suspicion regarding the fisheries. KILLIAN has issued a circular respecting the failure of the East port expedition, which he declares to be only tem porary, and he takes credit for the scheme, for having increased the existing complications, brought the British fleet within 100 yardi of the American forts, and agitated the fishery question. The Eastport affair, however, unluckily for the sagacity of KILLIAN and his co-opera tors, has served to strengthen rather than weaken the good understanding between the two Governments. The promptitude and decision of the American authorities has not only been gratify ing to the British and Colonial Governments as evidence of their goodwill and sincerity, but it has tended to prevent collisions on the fishing grounds by the presence of the American ships at the spot. KILLIAN seems to pride himself on the effect which the Fenian demonstrations have had in' encouraging the Confederation scheme which he appears to consider an affront to the States. This is another mistake, since the movement is entirely independent of the States, although in every sense it will prove a protection and an advantage to the colonists. The Americans are determined to pre vent, if possible, any breach of neutrality, since, upon the rumour of a Fenian organisation at Buffalo, General MEADE has been ordered to proceed there. - The steamer Wentworth, which was cap tured by Fenians, was restored in a few hours, unin jured, to the Captain, so that there is a lull in the affairs generally. It is a troublesome and mischievous conspiracy, and its partial resuscita tion under the guidance of STEPHENS is much to be regretted on account of the Irish in America, who will, we may suppose, be duped out of more money, and entangled in further plots and intrigues, all under the most specious pretences--the real object being to perpetuate the enjoyment of pre tentious authority and of public subscriptions by the chiefs of various degrees. Certainly whatever other improvements we have made in the nineteenth century, the age of dupes is not yet over. We learn in the American domestic news that the grand jury of the Federal circuit Court of Norfolk has indicted Mr. DAVIS for treason. The Court has adjourned until the first week in June, when it meets at Richmond. The long-deferred case will therefore come up for con sideration, and some means must be devised for getting out of the dilemma, unless the United States intend to degrade themselves in the eyes of Europe, and establish a lasting quarrel with the people of the South. It is possible that the PRESIDENT may allow the trial to proceed to a con viction, and then exercise his prerogative of pardon. We cannot believe *hat Mr. JOHNSON can seriously contemplate the infliction of any penalty upon his unfortunate rival. Such an act would be contrary to the whole spirit of his wise and conciliatory policy towards the Southern States, and would undo the whole of the work already done towards the pacification of the people. Disaffection and indig nation would be excited not only in the ex-Con federate States, but in the North itself. No wise or moderate man, whatever his opinion of the lega lity of the war, can fail to recognise that JEF FERSON DAVIS'S position was perfectly justifiable under the circumstances of the time. Believing as he did in the right of the South to secede, he was elected to the cares and responsibilities of the Pre sidency, and in the discharge of his onerous duties, t w h a e s only that fault he ew a t 1: a t toocould e b r e a t f e o u toond w e o i t n h c his la t c o o ry n , au to c o t constitutional. He maintained the independence of the South, indeed; unflinchingly, but he kept so strictly to constitutional law that he shrank from interfering with those who were active against him. He allowed Senator FOOTE to pass from South to North, and permitted open opposition to his authority both in press and Senate. JEFFERSON DAVIS would, no doubt, have made an admirable President in time of peace, but it needed a man more of the stamp of ANDREW JOHNSON himself to guide the vessel of the Confederacy through the storm, and to guard it against the dangers of internal jealousy and trea chery, as well as open enmity. Friend and foe alike bore testimony to the magnanimity, the humanity, and the courtesy of Mr. DAVIS in a position of great temptation as well as of much trial. No man less deserved to suffer for the misfortunes of his country, and since the North as well as the South was fully capable of appreciating his many admir able qualities, we can hardly doubt that the life and liberty of JEFFERSON DAVIS are in safe hands. AMATEUR THEATRICALS.—An evening or two ago a very admirable amateur performance was given at the Queen's Concert-room, llanover-square, which deserves a passing notice. The play selected was Sir E. B. Lytton's "Lady of Lyons,""tbe part of the proud yet loving lady being sustained by Miss Aylmer Blake, that of Madame Deschappells by Miss Agnes Sullivan, and the Widow Melnotte by Mrs. Legh Ward. Each lady supported her respective part with so much ability that a single word of praise would bo invidious. The part of Claude was very carefully given by Mr. Searle, and Mr. Martin and Mr. Tucker made excellent representatives of Beausant and Damas. Tho piece was very nicely mounted. EXECUTION AT PERTH FOR MURDER.—On Tues day morning Joseph Bell was executed at Perth for the murder of Alexander M'Ewan, a baker, at Blairgowrie. The latter was shot on thelatighway and robbed; the crime was traced to Bell by clear circumstantial evidence. From the first he protested his innocence of the crime, and showed great indifference as to his position. Immediately before the execution the culprit joined in the devotional services ; and at their close Lord Provost Kemp asked if he bad anything to say, and warned him of the sin of dying with a lie on his lips. The prisoner, who had been seated during the proceedings, rose to his feet, and, erecting his body, said -" Oh, God ; Thou knowest what I am going to say. I swear by Almighty God, and as I shall answer to God at the great day of judgment, that I will tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Gentlemen, I am as innocent of this murder as the child unborn. I have no idea wlio did it. It was not me as did it, so for that reason I am as innocent as a child unborn." After a short pause he said,—"l am greatly indebted to the ministers for their kindness to me. I die an innocent man." He then par took of ,a glass of wine, after which ho shook hands with the clergymen, the governor, the doctor of the prison, and bade them farewell. The procession to the scaffold was then formed, the prisoner seeming to be the coolest person present. Arrived at the scaffold, the prisoner ascended the steps and took his stand under the beam, at the same time carefully scanning the crowd, and the apparatus which was to hurl him into eternity. Calcraft lost no time atnh with d e the prisoner's drop f e f l a l c . e a T n h d e adjusting _ nate man evidently died out the di s dn h o g t ht n e u st m s b t e r r ug o g v l e e r .

Very soon after the arrival of Mr. Layard in Paris, he was admitted to a private interview with the Emperor, and he has also had a long versation with M. Drouyn de l'Huys, the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Mr. Layard was the bearer of a communication for the English Government ex ' pressing its consent to the collective note of the neutral Powers. The result of the visit of Mr. Layard is that England, France, and Russia have agreed upon the terms of the propoSal to be made to Austria, Prussia, and Italy in regard to a Con , gress, and therefore there is now very little doubt, in spite of contradictions from many quarters, that The Sun had the best authority and information for stating that such a proceeding would take place, with a view if possible to avert war. The leading Austrian papers, nevertheless, speak of a Congress as a " fantastic" idea. It is true that this was be fore the above facts were known. They will not hear of anything pacific, and continue to remind their readers that the Austrian army exceeds 800,000 men, of whom 270,000 are under the orders of Field Marshal Benedek, who recently issued such a belli cose order of the day. A letter from Florence also states that the proposal for a Congress has only had the effect in Italy of producing greater enthusiasm for war. The writer says that this enthusiastic feel ing pervades all classes. Colonels enrol themselves as simple soldiers. Prince Pio, connected with the House of Savoy, and an influential indivi dual, has enlisted as a volunteer under Garibaldi. The Prince made this statement himself to a friend. Five hundred young men of various villages have armed and equipped themselves at their own expense. The writer also relates what he heard in an omnibus. Two peasants were chat ' tering together. " Who is your son going with ?" said one. " With Garibaldi." " And yours ?" " Mine goes with 'Vittorio" (Victor Emmanuel) was the answer. They 'then cordially shook bands. This conversation is given as an illustration of the feeling existing everywhere. The ladies distribute bouquets to the officers in public, and have some thing patriotic to say about war. At the same time the Government is not inactive, for every day fresh battalions are despatched to rejoin and reinforce on the Po the army stationed opposite the Qua drilateral, the number of which exceeds 200,000 men. A fete is in course of organisation in Italy for . the sth of June, the anniversary of the battle of Magenta. In short, in spite of the supposed media tion of a Congress, Italy is preparing for, and in daily expectation (aud hope) of war. The Italian paper, the Dube, states that a subscription has been opened for the saviour of the Italian soldiers. It is stated that the father of Komissaron, the man who lately saved the Emperor of Russia from as sassination, and who was sentenced to hard labour for life on the mines of Siberia for a political offence, has just received a free pardon from his Majesty. He will not only be set at liberty, but a handsome sum of money will be given to him. According to an ancient French legend there once existed in Paris a house where savoury pies—sup posed pork pies and others—made of human flesh, were eaten in great abundance, and relished as keenly as the celebrated Perigord pies. This pork pie establishment, which was situated on the Rue des Marmousets in the Cite, has just been de molished like so many . others for modern improve ments. Here is what was written by the Pere Jacques de Breuil about this establishment : " From time immemorial there has existed a report that there was in the city of Paris, Rue des Mar mousets, a murderous pastrycook who used to assassinate the people who went to his house, with the assistance of a barber, his neighbour, who pre tended to shave the victims. Of their flesh he made pies, which were more relished than those manufactured e'lsewhere, because the flesh of man is more delicate in consequence of the food upon which he lives than that of the other animals." M. Coulvier Gravier, an astronomer who studies the weather, gives his opinion that the rest of the year will be dry rather than wet, and that the temperature will be higher than the average. An exceedingly interesting discovery has been made at Montreuil-aux-Peche. The workmen at a stone quarry have found the left humerus of an elephas primogenius or mammoth. This bone is of larger size than any heretofore discovered of -this animal, no longer in existence on our globe. It measures one metre and the sixth of a metre in length, and the circumference is rather more than half a metre, from which it is supposed that the animal was no less than six metres in length. Anatomists who have examined this portion of the skeleton gave their opinion that the animal had muscles of a peculiar character, which enabled it to make much more complicated movements than it is in the power of the elephant to make. The skeleton is so old that when it was placed - in a horizontal position it crumbled almost to &lit, and great care was necessa ro r No y f ane t tts s o uht rhetpaeh preserveHistory,environs oenn t ms h h p aolvadfshe etbprheeeisernnf fragments. qeocutstaheariangrtyga t ß nomo : aattnnhh a yd n ee kindl nu e ds portioneexists. ingenious xmis tos p f. remains of mammoths and hippopotami have been found at various periods, and workmen are now oc cupied in seeking for other fossil skeletons of such animals. We have our sporting prophets in Paris as well as in London, but on looking back to their predictions, I find that they are all wofully out in regard to the Chantilly Races. Not a single one gave the victory to M. Delamarre's Florentin, which was in the Jockey Club Prize. They all called him an outsider, and spoke coldly of him, or " damned him with faint praise." Marengo was spoken of as a dead certainty by some. Others said that the only horses which had the ghost of a chance were Baionette and Czar. The shock of earthquake felt at Marseilles and elsewhere was also experienced in the town of Pig nans, in the department of the Var. An inhabitant of that place writes to say that while he was walk ing in the street between nine and ten in the morn ing the earth trembled, and the effect upon him was the same as if he had been intoxicated, as he could scarcely keep his footing. This statement is corro borated by the accounts of other persons. The earthquake also manifested itself with great vio lence at Toulouse, and at Chambery, in Savoy. The sailors charged with the frightful murders on board the Federis Arca have arrived at Brest, and will shortly be tried. The most destructive fire that has taken place in Paris or the neighbourhood has just occurred in the immense carriage manufactory of Messrs. Desouches and Co., Pont de l'Oureg, Pantin. The workshops which occupied 6,000 square metres exists no longer, and their contents are almost totally destroyed. The value of the property they contained is at present incalculable. The soldiers and firemen used the most courageous and active exertions. One man is said to have perished in the flames. Three hun dred watermen are turned out of employ. j The weather is very peculiar. Yesterday it was very dry and bright, but last night was quite a December one. In the vicinity of Paris, at 10 o'clock, the thermometer was only just above freez ing point, and this morning there was frost in the fields long after sunrise. To-day a violent cold wind has prevailed, the effect of which was not sen sibly counteracted by the continuous sunshine. The cashier of the Sous-Cornptoir of the Rail ways, who absconded with three millions of cash, has been arrested, and also a Paris printer. A prince —the Prince de C. said to be impli cated in the transaction. Le Charivari says, " Nothing is changed in Europe. There i s on l y another casus bell i .

PROF ESSOR WILSON'S ESSAYS— Critical and imaginative—collected together in four handsome volumes—have just now been published by the Messrs. Blackwood and Sons, of Edinburgh. They are in continuation of the noble and, by this time, voluminous edition of the worksof that great Athlete, both physical and intellectual, who was the glory in his:full manhood and in his old age, of the modern Athens, as he was previously in his radiant youth of thoselake districts with which his memory, no less than the memories of three other poets, his contem poraries and friends—William Wordsworth, Robert Southey, and Samuel Coleridge—will be for ever (so long as the English language and English litera ture shall last) be associated. " A mighty hunter before the Lord," hardly less than _Nimrod of old— equally a conqueror in his way, whether armed with the angler's rod and tackle, the sportsman's fowling piece, shot -pouch, and powder-flask, the poet's pencil, the critic's pen, the punch-ladle of Ambrose, or that monthly trumpet of Maga, whose notes he could sound from treble to diapason as po tently as any among all those who have ever breathed through it—the author of these wonderful books, books running over with wit, eloquence, scholarship, humour, sarcasm, pathos, wisdom, and fun, this " fair-haired Hercules-Apollo," as he has been happily dubbed by one of his biographers, never could take pen in hand, no matter whether it were steel or goosequill, no matter whether he himself wore at the time tartan or broadcloth, shooting-jacket, or plaidie, but, hey ! presto ! his foot was on his native heath, and his name was Christopher North ! He was a noble creature I A splendid specimen of the genus homo ! And so—every scrap of writing that came from his hand, every fragment of a thought that fell from his lips or from his pen, we find a welcome for, cordial and spontaneous. No matter what his theme at the moment may chance to be, or what the form in which the whim of the moment in duces him to embody it—Poem, Criticism, Dialogue, Sonnet, Narrative ! Like the Ancient Mariner, he hath his will—•come he in any shape he lists. And so—with all our enthusiasm for his incomparable Noctes Ambrosianx, with alt our admiration for his " Christopher North in his Shoot ing Jacket," with all our delight in his didactic poetry and in his tales about Scottish Life and about Mar garet Lindsay, we find a welcome hardly less eager than4hat which we have already accorded to those more famous works of his, with which to hail the appearance in a collected form of these earlier contributions of John Wilson, the great Professor of the Edinburgh University, the greater Christopher North of Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine—con tributions dating, many of them as far back but no further than 182 G—forty years, in truth, from this present time, in other words more than one whole generation ! To particularize among Essays so won derfully miscellaneous both in their character and in their treatment, were nothing less than super fluous, would be hardly less than ridiculous, everything considered, so widely do they range from grave to gay, from lively to severe. Turning over the. leaves of the first merely of these four goodly volumes, and glancing haphazard through their contents, what do we find, or rather what do we not find there, as the pegs chosen by the young knight-errant of literature upon which to hang up the evidences of his genius, of his taste and of his erudition ? " Streams" and " Gymnastics"--" The Lives of the Poets" and "Death in the Pot"--" The Young Lady's Book" and " Meg Dod's Cookery"—here " Health and Longevity," there " Wordsworth"--now ".Old and Young North, or Christopher in London and Chris topher in Edinburgh !" Those who want a good hearty laugh need only turn to his Essay in this first volume "On Early Rising !" And so--hail ! and thrice welcome to these earliest effusions of the genius of Christopher North ! We are under a sense of obligations to the Messrs. Blackwood for having had them thus hunted up and published col lectively. THE HANDY-VOLUME SHAKSPERE—publishing now in the form of a Shilling Monthly Volume, issued from the press by the Messrs. Bradbury, Evans, and Co., of Bouverie-street, Blackfriars— is such a veritable treasure trove in literature that we long to see the same plan, identically, carried out in regard to others among the Immortals. A Handy-Volume Milton—Pope—Byron—each the very ditto to this lovely little edition of Shakspere —would be as welcome to us as flowers in May, as ices in the dogdays, as plum-pudding at Christmas. " Intended in respect to its appearance and size" Q. 11). tells, in a brief preliminary announcement, which follows immediately upon the title-page— "to form a handy, readable series of volumes, equally adapted for the Pocket, the Knapsack, and the Railway"—the darling little Edition, as we can't help calling it, is printed upon pages free from notes, in type both clear and beautiful. "The text has been arranged "—as it appears to us very judiciously—" from a close comparison of the most trustworthy editions such [Q.D. goes on to, explain] as those of Mr. Collier, Mr. Dyce, Mr. Charles Knight, Mr. Staunton, and the Cambridge editors—not omitting the folio of 1623—with the primary object of obtaining a reading as nearly in accordance with what Shakspere actually' wrote." Comprised with the compass of the First Volume, are the whole of the five acts (each) of " The Tempest," of the " Two Gentlemen of Verona," and of the " Comedy of Errors." The paper is toned, the type is exquisitely beautiful, the text is Shak spere puz et sinzple—Shakspere and nothing but Shakspere. It is, besides all this, a very marvel of cheapness as the result of a happy thought most charmingly realized. THE CURIOSITIES OF LITERATURE—now publish ing in shilling monthly instalnients by the Messrs. Frederick Warne and Co., of Henrietta-street, Covent Garden—is not merely, .as it announces it self to be on its title-page, " the only authorised and complete edition with notes" of that famous masterpiece it is beyond all question the very best edition of it that has ever made its appearance. It is edited by its Author's distin guished son, the Right Hon. B. Disraeli, M.P. for Buckinghamshire, and Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition. In ten months, that is considerably within a year from the date of its commencement, it will be completed in three goodly volumes—a very treasury of scholarship and information. Informa tion, often the most recondite, but always conveyed to the reader in a manner the most delightful. NEW MUSIC.—Mr. Cocks, of New Burlington street, is undoubtedly a most energetic music publisher ; because no sooner have we completed the reviewing of a long list of novelties than another makes its appearance and demands immediate attention. The latest productions are two charming ballads by Fraz Abt, " Would I were a Warbling Bird," " A Forest Ramble," and two instru mental pieces, one on the airs in "La Sonnambula," by Arthur Delasure, and the other " A Rustic Rondo," by Immanuel Liebich. The later of the two is the most cha racteristic piece, and one no doubt which will become a favourite. We have no choice with respect to them, so we say " both are best." SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT OF HYDROPHOBIA.—We regret to have to record a case of hydrophobia in this neighbourhood. In our last we mentioned that a dog, which showed signs of rabies, had, escaped from Mr.Higgs's of Trescott, communicating the disorder to other dogs, and doing other mischief. We learn that about a month ago a'servant girl in Mr. Higg's service was tying up the dog in question when the animal bit her on the right thumb. She experienced no serious results until Tuesday week, when her thumb, arm, and chest became considerably swollen, accompanied with great heat, pain, redness, stiff ness, and numbness, the arm being so stiff that she was almost unable to move it, Mr. Higgs sent for Mr. Pope, surgeon, of this town, who saw the girl on Thursday, and found her evidently suffering from hydrophobia, the result of the bite of the dog. On Friday night she became Very ill, biting cm ud tearing at almost everything near her, and suffering much from convulsions. She repeatedly declared that she heard the dog growling at her ; indeed, she dis played all the symptoms of this dreaded disease. _As sur gical writers on the subject do not lay down any specific mode of treatment in cases of this kind, Mr. Pope deter mined to cause profuse salivation in the patient, with the view of neutralising the poisonous character of the saliva of hydrophobia. This is a course of procedure not often pursued, but its beneficial effects were soon apparent. On Sunday the convulsions and the spasms, from which the poor girl also suffered, had ceased, and there now appears to be every prospect of her ultimate recovery. !Wolver hampton Chronicle, LA TEST INTEL LICENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAM.) THE WAR CRISIS. HANOVER, MAY 23. General von Manteuffel has been at Kiel in order to confer with the Duke of Augustenberg, and has since returned to Schleswig. The Duke of Augus tenberg is said to have denied having taken any part in any agitation hostile to Prussia, It is be lieved that General Manteuffel conferred with General Gablenz and the Duke of Augustenberg respecting the expected withdrawal of the Austrian troops from Holstein. BERLIN, MAY 24. The Duke of Coburg has had a conference with the King of Prussia. FLORENCE, May 20. Letters from Caprera announce that Garibaldi is in excellent health, and is making arrangements to leave for the continent in'a few days. His son and daughter, Menotti and Teresita, arrived at Genoa on the 17th inst., en route for Nice, where the Ge neral's brother is lying seriously ill. Ricciotti, the younger son, arrived here from Bologna on the evening of the 17th inst., also en route for Nice. The Movimerto of Genoa announces that Garibaldi will not appoint his officers until he arrives in Flo rence. According to the Italie the best understanding exists among the members of the Volunteer Corps Committee, although composed of various elements, comprising both generals of the army and members of the advanced party of action. The generals have readily accepted the traditional uniform, and have at once admitted the officers who served with Gari baldi at Aspromonte. The Ministerial order relative to the organisa tion of the volunteer corps states that the 20 bat talions fixed by the Royal decree will form 10 regi ments, each composed of two battalions. In the event of the eventual formation of additional bat talions, the existing regiments will be completed from them until they are raised to the strength of the regular infantry regiments. The regiments will be formed at the following depots : Ist, 2d, and 3d, at Como. 4th, sth, and 6th, at Varese. 7th, and Bth, at Bari. 9th, 10th and 11th, at Barletta. The regiments will be enrolled between the 21st and 29th inst. Upon the formation of a regiment being ordered, the authorities will proceed to constitute the first company. When this shall be 80 strong the for mation of the next company will be proceeded with, and so on, until the whole eight companies of the regiment are formed. They will afterwards be filled up until the regiment is raised to its full strength of 42 officers and 1,404 men. The staff of each regiment will consist of one colonel or lieutenant-colonel, two majors, Ist and - 2d adjutant majors, two administrative officers, one ensign, and one regimental and one battalion doctor. In view of the important services rendered by the Carabinier Corps in 1859 and 1860, under Antonio Mosto, the Volunteer Corps Committee have proposed to the Government the formation of a similar corps in the present volunteer force. A Royal decree has been issued ordering the formation of a naval squadron with the title of " Armada of Operation," the vessels composing which will be designated by the Minister of Marine. It will be divided into three squadrons as follows : 1. A squadron of battle (ironclad frigates). 2. An auxiliary squadron (screw frigates and corvettes). 3. A blockading squadron (2d class ironclads). The commander-in .chief of the armada will divide the vessels under his command among the three squadrons in the manner that he may con sider most expedient, and will appoint the respec tive flagships. Any Italian war vessel not com promised in the armada will be placed under the orders of the admiral commanding in the waters that she may enter. The Nazione of to-day says :—" We are glad to announce that his Majesty the King has not accepted the resignation of Signor Scialoja, who . will therefore continue to hold the Portfolio of Finance." SPAIN, MADRID, MAY 23. In yesterday's sitting of the Congress Senor Bermudez de Castro, Minister for Foreign Affairs, replied to the question put to him respecting the bombardment of Valparaiso and the declaration of Mr. Layard in the House of Commons, relative to the conduct of Spain. The Minister stated that he had informed the Foreign Governments that Spain would have recourse to every kind of hostility to avenge the blood already shed. If the American Republics continued .the war with Spain ,she would continue to act • with energy against them. FRANCE.

The Sydney Herald states that he had gained upwards of a stone weight in gaol, and that, judging from his improved physical condition, his mind could not have been much disturbed by the fate of his impending doom. He had slept well during his last night, ate a hearty break fast in the morning, and apparently enjoyed the pipe he smoked afterwards. He was perfectly resigned to his fate, mounted the steps of the scaffold without assistance, and in a moment " the young outlaw" had ceased to live ; there was not the slightest movement after the fall. Thera were between 60 and 70 persons present to witness the execution. In the same month the murderer Jones was executed at Ballarat. To the last he denied that the murder was a sin at all, and said that his victim was not fit to live. The Melbourne Argus states that on the morning of the execution the entrance to the gaol was mobbed, and when the door was opened to admit persons who had a right to be present a number of ruffians forced their way in. The culprit came out of his cell looking pale and subdued, but not timid. When the bolt was withdrawn a convulsive twitching and shuddering of the body were perceptible for more than five minutes, and it was understood that the pulsations of the heart were felt for some time.

National Choral Society. Last evening a very attractive concert was g iven by this society in Exeter Hall, under the direction of Mr. G. W. Martin.- It consisted of a variety of ballads, part-songs, and glees, the solos being sung by Madame Maria Vilda, Miss Franklein, and Mr. Leigh Wilson, and the glees, &c., by the members of the Orpheus Union. The great successes of the evening appeared to be the performance of the par t singing, as the remarkable precision with which they were given undoubtedly elicited the most en thu: siastic applause. The Message by Mr. Leigh Wilson, the Lark by Miss Franklein, and the Cas te Diva by Madame Maria Vilda, were highly ap'Pre; ciated by a very attentive, delighted, and crowde d audience.
