STANFMID SMITH, Banda PR OVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE , FOR • HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, B.C. Sixty Thousand Nights Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £1,300 more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor ramifies in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and tood to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf. SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBERT D.D., No. 22, Finsbury-circus, E.O. N°. 23,146. NEW NOVEL BY TIIE AUTHOR OF " MARGARET .

E AGLE INSURANCE COMPANY, London REPORT 'OF THE DIRECTORS, For the year ending 30th June, 1866, read at the ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, 10th August, 1866. • CHARLES CHATFIELD, Esq., in the chair. The Directors have the satisfaction of reporting to the proprietors that, in pursuance of the resolutions unani mously. passed at the Special General Meeting held in April last, the - amalgamation of the National Mercantile Assurance Society with the Eagle has been carried into effect, and two of the directors of that society—Mr. Wil- Coxon (heretofore the chairman), and Mr. William Fre derick De la Rue--now occupy seats at the Eagle Board. The following account exhibits the increased income and outgoing of the year arising from the junction,. which it may be remembered takes effect retrospectively, and the balance-sheet shows the assets as they existed on the 30th June last, augmented by those just transferred. By the Surplus Fund account it will be seen that the total income from premiums and interest is £483,376 Os. 11d., and the total outgoing £414,790 13s. Gd. The dif ference, £68,585 7s. 5d., and the surplus fund contributed by the amalgamated society, viz., £151,515 Bs. 6d., increase the surplus fund of the company to £899,095 Bs. The premiums on new assurances are considerably less than those of the foregoing year ; but at the same time a much, smaller portion 4kf ,them has been devoted to to-assurance.- The change in the financial position of the Company precludes an exact comparison with former years. The expenses of management of the Eagle for the year are al most identical in amount with those of the last. The ex penses of the National Mercantile Society will, of course, henceforth cease. _ Deducting the several items payable on demand, or at an early maturity, the realised assets, as set forth in the balance sheet, amount to £2,559,135 4s. Bd. Of this sum £178,340 belongs exclusively to the proprietors, £1,481,699 16s. Bd.* exclusively to the policy holders, and £899,095 Bs. partly to the one and partly to the other. The last two items subject, of course, to exact adjustment at each quin quennial investigation. . It remains only for the Directors to mention thtd, since the last annual meeting the Company has lost, by the de cease of Sir William Gore Ouseley, and by the retirement of Mr. Gould, the services of two of the members of the board. Both gentlemen were ranch respected, and it is with great regret that the directors have to make this an nouncement. * £5,880,163 14s. 4d., less £4,398,463 17s. Bd. SURPLUS FUND ACCOUNT. DR.

THE AUSTRIAN ARMY. (From the Special Correspondent of the Times.) VIENNA, Aug. 14. Othello's occupation is well nigh gone here, al though there is more than enough of the pomp and circumstance of glorious war, and there is as much of belligerency about Vienna as if the army of Aus tria were preparing for battle to-morrow. Of the storm that has passed over her little signs are here visible, except the wrecks of men about the streets and a few prospectless princes and throneless kings. There is a steady current of men flowing south wards—perhaps it is no longer necessary to keep so strong a force in Vienna ? Come and see. The suburbs are like barracks, the public squares like camps, the Prater like a battle-field. The troops which march off seem to have their faces in the direction of Italy, and troops are still under orders to proceed southwards, so that the Italians will see the frontier, wherever it may be finally drawn, well garnished with white coats on the side of Austria. Such outlying districts of the city as Dornbach are crowded with soldiers nevertheless, and I hear the adjacent hamlets are equally full. If Austria could only get rid of some quarter of a million of soldiers she could take off some millions of florins from the enormous total of her liabilities ; but an army is more easily augmented than reduced in despotic countries, and the vessel of the State is to go down with all its crew on board, and with the grand ap paratus of a first-class shipwreck. Just as she is ready for another battle Austria strikes on the rock of peace, and is in danger of instant foundering ; but instead of lightening her cargo, she is actually taking in shot and shell. " Here is a proof of Austrian sense— Hero Austrian wit is seen— When nothing's left that's worth defence She build's a magazine." But if Austria had a dozen Swifts in his best clays, instead of his worst, she would not heed his sarcasms, or his remonstrances. The crownless kings who haunt her Volksgarten have no moral for her, and, unchangeable as Destiny itself, she pur sues her career. It is a place for a cynic philoso pher to come to, and if Diogenes mild roll his tub to the People's Garden to-night, h e might take coin fort in the sight of the p oor blind King of Hanover St ra uss's music with its lively chatter. His face is walking about in the crowd, which is trying to drown marked by the serene expression peculiar to those whose " orbs, in dim confusion veiled," must turn within ; and there is a kindly sentiment about his features which misfortune and sufferings have not destroyed. llis so n is p robabl y n ear at hand, and n Prince of S axony an d one personages rol'' can be seen a t th e e ;promenade.

Perhaps they have come to assist at the obsequies of an Empire or to watch the effects of amputation on an Constitution. ancient C • on. The ob verse of the coinage of t/ us ria will soon require re vision, for it is as great a sham to style Francis Joseph King of Lombardy and Venetia as it was to call George 111. K . of France ; but it will be some ) r / . sad consolation to know that the superscriptions of other coinages, must be altered also, and that the Masters of the Mint of more States than one will need new dies. The doctrine of nationalities is only just beginning to work. We have all heard of the Kings of Bohemia and of the Kingdom thereof, though it is probable that the English mind is most impressed with the remembrance of the blind old Monarch who was led into the thick of the fight at Crecy and perished at the hands of some unknown yeoman, and has some general respect for Kings of Bohemia in consequence. Few of us have heard of Czechia, however, or of the Czech race, as an ancient Monarchy and a civilised people ; but the Bohemians are now urging the claims they have been pressing for many years past to a recog nition of their autonomy on Austria, and Czech heroes and Czech literature are coming to the front with as loud a noise as if all the Hussites were alive again. Then the Croats are preparing to resist Hun garian predominance, and the Germans are getting ready to fight for their supremacy ; so that the power of the Emperor to stride across his subjects and keep them all in order is taxed to the utmost, and the golden links of the Crown are strained almost to breaking. Under the surface of the Austrian mo narchy there are dangerous currents and violent eddies and contending streams. The Emperor and the army and the nobility overlie them all ; but there is no oil to srnoothe the troubled waters, and the vast ocean of human thought and passion refuses to be compressed. The stories of suffering and oppres sion from foreign enemies—of sickness and ruined harvests—of blighted crops and deserted villages— which come from Moravia and Bohemia, add to the gloom which prevails. Men talk of popular rights and of the action of popular assemblies as if they could cure all these evils, but the wise fear they would only serve as the craters of volcanoes—to pour out fire and lava. The news from France is hailed by some with unmixed satisfaction. They see in it a chance of alliances that may avert the evil day, or procure more compensation for past misfor tunes. Another eagle is coming down to claim its share of the carcase, and in the contest a fragment or two may be snatched by less noble or lucky birds. Others look on the appearance of the new proprietor of a set of talons and a sharp beak as a natural and preconcerted event in the action of the play. If it comes to a fight it is hard to say which will win, and what auxiliaries may turn up to take sides on the stage. Prussia is on a war footing, but her soldiers have suffered from sickness and fighting, and may have no great stomach for another campaign with a different and more formidable antagonist, and at the same time the most daring, self-confident, and able of French marshals may hesitate be fore he commits himself and his army to a march at the other side of the Rhine, against so potent and resolute an adversary. So far as I can learn, no step has yet been taken to reduce the Austrian army or its establishments. There is to be a decided move tnent for its complete reorganisation very speedily, but it is not decided what shape the change will as sume, except that the breech-loader is to be intro duced as fast as possible. The transport service will be improved so as to give greater mobility. An army can now be concentrated with rapidity by means of railways, but no great improvement has been intro duced in the way of moving it when once it has been turned out on the fields from the trains, and much is yet to be learnt in that respect. Men can only carry a certain weight, and every pound they bear diminishes their power of getting over distances and fighting effectually. The knapsack is the general's greatest enemy. Next comes his supply train ; next his reserve ammunition. We hear they manage these things very well in France, and the Power which is best prepared for war and can strike the quickest and most sudden blow has greater chances of success now-a-days than ever. (From the Times Military Corralpondent) GORTZ, Aug. 12. The Austrian army consists of so many varieties of troops and races of men that it constantly hap pens that soldiers serving in the same campaign and even under the same general are unableto understand each other's speech. Individual men and individual regiments are expected to merge themselves in the general mass ; all that is done bravely and well is to reflect credit on the Emperor's army, not on any part of it only, and perhaps it is as well not to run the risk of raising jealousies among the different na tionalities. Yet by this means some esprit de corps must be lost, and it requires an Austrian mind to comprehend fully the wisdom of this arrangement, which appears to an Englishman more patriarchal than practical. There has long been established on the Turkish frontier of the Imperial dominions an organisation which has been of much value to Europe in its day, and still remains valuable to the country which gave it birth. It is known by the name of the military frontier orMilitargrantze, and has become a nursery for excellent troops always ready for service, trained to arms from their earliest manhood, and ever faith ful to the House of Hapsburg. Besides Transylva nia, which is simply a colony, partly military and partly civil, there are the three frontiers—Croatian, Slavonian, and that of the Banat. The first founda tion of these colonies was laid as early as the begin ning of the 16th century by a grant of land to cer tain Slavonic refugees, but they passed through many vicissitudes till the present organisation was effected about the middle of the last century. The fundamental principle of the system is that the land is divided among the different families for their own cultivation, but on the condition that every male from the age of 18 till he is . no longer e c a a e able do u o f t b e i e t a h r e i r n g forar h m o s m is e a e r s o f l o d r i e e i r g ,and r li v a i b e l e e i t o f r b e e .s se military s h q ar ui r d e e d re r s But d n i o v d a e l d l i e n q to u a t l h l y r e s e o d , is f t o i r o etth clae —l. The regular border troops; 2, the armedpopulation; 3, the " Unobligater Grantzstand," or reserve. The whole of the inhabitants are under military rule, and for the administration of affairs of arts, arms, and agriculture are divided into 15 districts, 14 of which furnish each a regiment of the Ist class, or regular border troops, consisting in peace of two battalions of six companies, each company having four officers and 161 men, including artificers, musi cians, and men for the service of the officers and for carry wounded or sick.
