It is the most digestible and nourishing of all foods, and suitable for invalids and infants in all complaints. IMPORTANT CAUTION.--Beware of the many unsavoury and more than slopy imitations to which, without authority, Baron Liebig's name is most audaciously attached. . Henceforth none will doubt the valuable properties of Du Barry's health restoring Revalenta Arabica Invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of blessings it has already received from invalids whose position had been deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope, whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of unsuccessful medical treatment. We quote from the "Gazette du Midi," July 25th. (Cure No. 48,41:):—"Rome, July 21st, 1866.—The health of the Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other remedies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal. It has produced a surprisingly beneficial effect on his health, and his Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly."

W. BARRIS, Newspaper Agent, 4, Blackfriars-road London. A clergyman, as well as a schoolmaster has been fined for flogging a boy. It was stated that he had mercilessly beaten the lad, because the latter rushed against his servant in the street when taking shelter from some stone throwers. A fine of £2, and £2 12s. 6d. costs, was inflicted. It is stated in a Madrid telegram that Marshal Saldanha was about to be arrested by the Duke de Louie and sent abroad when the recent rising took place. News of the Duke de Loule's intention, however, reached Sal danha, and he at once had recourse to a military pronun ciamiento. The Agence Navas narrates that at Nagy Bun (Transylvania) a few days ago there burst a waterspout, by which 80 houses were destroyed. The corpses of two hundred persons were found stioved about the fields. and fourteen others have been got out of the river at Schatzburg. A. thunderstorm burst some days back over the Bourbonnaise and did great damage. In one village, out of fifty-six sheep, seventeen were killed by the lightning. The corn was all beaten down, the vines broken, and, in some cases, the roofs of houses carried sway. MISCELLANEOUS TOPICS. The Fenian Raid.. The long-expected Fenian experiment in Canada hag not proved encouraging. The inevitable defeat has already taken place. The centre of the . opera tions was St. Albans, a town in the State of Ver mont, close to the frontier of Eastern Canada. Here a bodyofFenians gathered under the command of O'Neill, and two hundred crossed over on Wednesday morn ing. The Canadian troops met and defeated them. The damage seems to have been very small, for the Canadians had no casualty, whilst the Fenians lost only two—one account says four—men ; but the moral victory must prove important. The Fenians are represented as discouraged, broken, and.in full flight; and their leader, O'Neill, is now in the hands of the United States authorities. Tile lesson to this gentleman ought to be a severe ofne. Four years ago he invaded Canada. At the end of May 1860, he crossed the Niagara River at Fort Erie. The prospect of an invasion had aroused a loyal and enthusiastic spirit in the Canadians. Volunteers had been enrolled by thou sands, and the Fenians were encountered three days after they had crossed the frontier. They were compelled to retreat, and a number of them were captured. The American Government acted in good faith, and many of the returned Fenians were arrested by Generals Grant and Meade, sent on the service by President Johnson. On this occa sion, too, it has fully done its duty, and merits the thanks of Englishmen and Canadians. Horseracing. The party journals are in great measure unanimous on the subject of Mr. Hughes' Horseracing Bill. They all agree that reform is needed; but some hold that Parliament is not the body to deal with the subject at all, others that Mr. Hughes should have contented himself with regulating betting. His bill deals with two distinct topics, betting and horseracing. Now, there can be no doubt, in the opinion of the Times, Telegraph, and Daily News, that the Legislature may justifiably interfere to check the swindling and de moralisation of wagers; but it is a question whether the running of two-year-olds, handicaps, and the like should not be left to the Jockey Club. That body has agreed to deal with the racing itself ; but it has refused to meddle with betting. The Craufurd Coup . d'Etat. Mr. R. N. Fowler, M.P. for Falmouth and Penryn, comes to the rescue of Mr. Craufurd in respect to that gentleman's suceessful ruse to turn off " the parliamentary main." With regard to the Contagious Diseases Act, Mr. Fowler states that members have been flooded with papers of the most indecent and improper description—papers only fit for Holywell-street in its worst days, and quite unsuitable to be left about in any respectable family. He appeals to the public, therefore, whether it is not natural that members should wish to mark the way in which they have been treated by their opponents in the strongest manner possible. On Tuesday night, he says, those gentlemen tilled the galleries, and in spite of the admonitions of the sergeant-at-arms, a number of so-called "ladies" insisted on being present. Under these circumstances he thinks Mr. Oraufurd took the only course open to him to shew the sense which he, in common with many others, entertains of the indelicate and in decent way in which this question has been ad vocated. The Established Church in Wales. Mr. Richards complains, in a letter to the Times, that, although much was said during. the debate on the Established Church in Wales of the inaction in former days of the Welsh clergy, nothing was said of their revived energy. As a proof of the latter he instances the parish in which he lives, a thoroughly Welsh-speaking district in the heart of Merionethshire, where there are two services in. Welsh and two in English every Sunday, an early ser vice in the morning of each week-day, and a service on all the days appointed to be observed. He thinks the result of the division on the debate will do much to inspirit and help onwards a conscientious and hardworking body of gentlemen, who in many a mountain valley are working unaided in the cause of religion. Church of England Reform. A meeting has been held, under the auspices of the Church institution, to consider what reforms might be introduced into the Church of England system. Viscount Sandon, M.P., who presided. described the object of the society as being to intro duce changes which might tend to increase the effi ciency of the National Church. They were not y any means revolutionists; on the contrary, they believed that changes might be made that would enable the Church to take a position which would entitle her to be what she had been in times past, the Church of the people. Mr. H. C. Raikes, M.P., read a paper which contended that if the Church of England was to continue in existence there must be three essential reforms, namely, a revision of the present number and status of bishops, a revision of the constitution of Convoca tion, and a reform of the capitular bodies. To these, perhaps, might be added a revision of the system of Church patronage. Sick Children. The Prince of Wales has been giving his support to one of the most admirable of all our charitable institutions. Sick children have a special claim on the care and sympathy of their elders in every rank of life, and that claim is enhanced tenfold when the little sufferers belong to the class which has to en aure habitual privation. The hospital for sick children, at whose annual festival the Prince of Wales pre sided onWednesday evening, supplies a demand which in London unfortunately never diminishes in its urgency. The number of in-patients and out-patients last year-709 and 15,780 respectively—shew how extensive is the work done by the institution ;. and it is [gratifying to find that the subscription list keeps pace with the expenses. A fund exists for supplying surgical instruments and for sending chil dren to Brighton, and similar subsidiary efforts are made in other directions. A convalescent in stitution at Highgate is of immense assist ance in recruiting the strength of those slowly recovering from sickness. The Queen and the Princesses have always taken a warm interest in the hospital, and have bestowed much kindly help on it. The Prince of Wales has now done his part by presiding over the annual dinner, and by advocating the claims of the association upon public support. A new hospital is in contem plation, and the subscriptions for it are promising. One anonymous donor has _contributed the welcome sum of £l,OOO. • Arithmetical Progression. Every one has heard instances of the extraordinary rapidity with which some kinds of property increase in value. The present price of a few square feet of ground in the City of London would have considerably astonished our great-grandfathers, and it now seems that this Jack-and-the-Beanstalk rate of growth is not restricted to terra firma. The shares in the New River Company exhibit the same marvellous increase. At the recent sale by auction of a few of these shares some curious facts were mentioned. Charles the Second owned a number of the shares in consideration of sums advanced to Sir Hugh Middleton at the time of the construction of the Canal. The King gave up thirty six for an annual payment of £5OO. In 1836 one of the King's shares was tested by public auction, and proved to be worth £17,050, thus making the whole thirty-six worth over £613,800, or an annual income (at 4 per cent.) of £24,000 instead of the modest £5OO originally allotted. The sale this week was more remarkable in its results, as one of the King's shares sold for £48,000. The 36 shares, therefore, are now worth £1,728,000, representing an income at 4 per cent. of £69,120, or 138 times more than King Charles was content to accept for his share. Street Paving. A very successful trial has been made in London, of the Val-de-Travers asphalte, a substance which has for many years been used in Paris. Upwards of a year ago the City Commissioners of Sewers, with the consent of their engineer and surveyor, re solved to lay down a quantity of the asphalts by way of experiment in one of the most frequented of the metropolitan thoroughfares Thread , needle - street. Owing to the satisfactory result which appeared- to follow- the action of the Commissioners, they have been petitioned by the inhabitants of other streets to have the news paving material applied to their thoroughfares a well. It has been noticed that the Val-de- Travers asphalte gives to a carriage-way all the adrantages rendered by granite or macadam without the drawbacks of either of the latter. It does not produce a slippery pavement, it is unaffected by heat or frost, is easily laid down, and makes a street smooth and clean, and, lastly and chiefly, it is enduring. This peculiarity is what tends to mae the substance especially valuable in the busy roadways of London, and it is on account of . this mainly that the citi zens are anxious for the further adoption of the material. To remove all doubt as to the last ing character of the paving, a piece of the roadway near the Bank of England was taken up on Wednesday, and although the portion was selected from a spot where the traffic is usually greatest,the reduction in its thickness, after nearly eighteen months' wear and tear, was the least imaginable. MAY 27, 1870. Death in the London Streets. Statistics enumerating the large number of persons who are annually killed by being run over in the street*: London, . are given„. .. a return issued from the General Register office, and assuredly the magnitude of the disasters, as well as the increase of fatal cases which is shewn to take place yearly, is sufficient to warn ordinarily nervous persons not to leave even their homes. In 1867, 164 people were killed by horses or vehicles. In 1868 the number increased to 203, while about 2,700 others were maimed or seriously injured. There was a slight decrease in 1869, chiefly noticeable in tha deaths caused by vans and waggons, but in the present year the mortality list seems to again have received alarming augmentation. Dr. Farr, the Registrar-General, calculates that one hundred ' thousand men, women, and children are subject to being run over in the streets of London in twenty-four. hours, and he states that the deaths in 1868 shew that two in every 1,000 of the passenger population of the city are exposed to risk for a year. This is the same as his estimate of railway passenger mortality all over England. Dr. Farr concludes the report by expressing an opinion that the cause and the prevention of street accidents might, with much advantage, be inquired into by a commission. He also offers many wise suggestions by which the public themselves might try to counteract the prevalence of disasters. To the latter his chief word of advice is that, when foot passengers, they should consider the question of their safety before crossing a street, and that when crossing they should keep themselves at once cool, attentive, and alert. A Modern Lear. While, according to our social philosophers, man kind and womankind are attaining a degree of moral elevation and mental intelligence unknown to their benighted ancestors, it is painfully certain that some of the old-fashioned virtues are sadly out of date. As for the qualities once thought inseparable from homebred women, our modern dames and damsels have shewn us they can very well be dispensed with. Under these circumstances it is not perhaps suprising that the old fashioned command, " Honour thy father and mother," is esteemed to be obsolete ; but it is, to say the least of it, a little hard on the ratepayers of St. Giles's, Camberwell, that they should be called on to support in the parish workhouse an old man whose children are enjoying property worth several hundred pounds. Richard Faulkner, now an inmate of St. Giles's, was rash enough to make a deed of gift of his property to his four children,two sons and two daughters, who now decline to assist him in any way, One of the daughters has about £3OO invested, and is in a situation. The other was entitled to £BOO on a reversionary interest. No particulars are reported of the condi tion of the sons, who, however, are ordered each to pay 2s. a week towards their father's maintenance, the daughters being exempted. Truly we are making progress! The Metropolitan Paradise. We ought in these sensation-loving days, to be very grateful to the parochial authorities of St. Pancras. They provide us with a constant variety of exciting intelligence. What with the series of disasters in the workhouse itself, the consequent investigation, the charges and counter charges, the satires and the libels arising out of it, and the perpetual internal warfare of the late board, we have been well provided with news. When the relentless and ungrateful ratepayers dethroned the mimic kings of the parish at the late election, it was naturally supposed that the drama had been played out, and that there were to I e no more sensation scenes. This was quite a mistake. A new stage effect is now produced by the announce ment, "To be sold, the furniture and effects of the St. Pancras Board of Guardians." The complete stock in the offices of the guardians is to be sold by auction on Saturday. In the inquiry into the case of Mary Allen, the late board undertook the defence of Mr. Harley, the medical officer implicated, in addition to their own. The latter they paid, but, apparently repenting of their astonishing and unusual fit of liberality, they did not pay for Mr. Harley, and the creditor has put the brokers in. The present board, who thus find themselves embarrassed by the consequence of their prede cessors' sins, have' despatched a message to the Poor-law Board, but no answer has been re ceived. There are not many new things under the sun, but the spectacle of brokers taking possession of workhouse property is probably one of them. The Fans at South Kensington. The exhibition of fans at South Kensington has something of an historical interest about it, inasmuch as in many instances these delicate " toys " serve to depict the peculiar tastes and licence of thought permitted_ to the Delias of the various periods represented. The Empress of the French has contributed to this exhibition a large assortment of elegant trifles, many of them being real works of art. Several of the French fans deal with Scriptural authorities, such as " The Judgment of Solomon," the Cupid of modern times having been adopted to do duty for the child. There are also Chinese fans with shooting mandarins and willow-plate-pattern ducks, English sporting fans of the eighteenth century, showing the degeneracy of modern field-fare ; and fans of " virtue rewarded," with tableaux from the history of Pamela. Add to these, Japanese, Indian, and other Oriental contributions, and yet but an indis tinct notion remains of the vast variety of those fasci nating instruments which now invite the attention of the curious. Warning to Debtors. The London Stock-Exchange has adopted a severe measure in consequence of the arbitrary spoliation of creditors by the Austrian Government. This empire has not adopted any of the ruder forms of repudia tion in favour with some nations. But by forced conversion of its bonds into others of a different denomination, the robbery is made quite as effectual. The Stock Exchange has accordingly forbidden the introduction of any fresh Austrian securities until redress shall have been afforded for the arbitrary spoliation involved in the recent forced conversion. The Austrian Government is therefore now enjoying all the notoriety and dignity of a " welsher"—to whom a repudiating nation exactly corresponds. A Narrow Escape The PlfSbiscitary Administration; as it is called, has had one of those victories which are after the fashion of defeats. In the debate on' the new Press Law, which has this week beett discussed in the Corps L4gislatif, an amendment was brought forward by M. Ernest Picard, which placed the 011ivie r C a bi ne t i n a ve ry embarrassing position. M. Picard proposed that in the event of an action for libel being brought against a newspaper by any person in a public position, such as a railway or bank director, &c., they should be put on the same footing as officials, and the defendants should be allowed to put in a plea of justification, and prove the charge. This is not allowed by the law when the libel is on a private person. M. 011ivier himself sup ported this view a little while since, but he is not very willing to act up to it in office. M. Picard made a vigorous speech citing the example of Eng land, and produced so great .an effect that on a division 97 appeared for the amendment, and 99 for the Government. This majority of two was the le 3s satisfactory, as four of the Ministers voted. At 'the next day's meeting M. Buffet com plained that his name was in the list as not having voted, whereas h 6 voted for the amendment, while Mr. Kolb Bernard said he had voted with the Government by mistake. The ma jority of two having thus melted into thin air, it was suggested that the vote should be repeated, but M. Schneider very prudently refused to sanction such a motion. The vote is thought to augur ill for the reconstructed Cabinet. P IRIS CORRESPONDENCE. Wir,DNisply EVENING. A rather stormy scene took place at the sitting of the Senate to-day. Count d'Aguesseau complained bitterly of the manner in which the Senate had been slighted on the occasion of the Imperial visit of Saturday. The President had made a speech en the occasion. He was met by the reply that it was the duty of the President of the Legis lative Chamber to address the Emperor ; but he was not to be appeased, and declared that the Ministers were greatly to blame. The President's explanation was a very suitable one. He said that he had madeinquiries on the sub ject, and found that in previous ceremonies of this kind the Senate had remained quiescent. The Government nar rowly escaped a defeat in the discussion on the Press laws. "It would have increased the bitterness of their disappoint ment had this been the case, that M. 011ivier had at first agreed with M. Picard and accepted the principle of his amendment to the effect that persons who brought actions against newspapers should be regarded in the light of public functionaries when they were possessed of a certain degree of social standing. The Ministry are now informed that the insignificant victory which they carried off was a doubtful one, for ten of their votes are called in ques tion. M. Buffet declares that he voted for, and not against, the amendment, as was reported ; and M. Molb- Bernard declares that he voted with the Government by mistake." It is expected that the question will be brought before the Chamber again in another shape. No doubt M. 011ivier has regretted having changed his mind on the subject, and doubts the truth of the saying that second thoughts are the best. A prominent English official has come to Paris for the express purpose of studying the telegraph system which is carried on in France. The Minister of the Interior and M. de Vougg have given him a cordial welcome, and placed one of the employ& of the telegraph office at his service, in order that he may be fully initiated into all the proceedings of French telegraphy. Mr. Brown, on leaving France, will proceed to Berlin and Brussels to complete his studies in those important centres of correspondence. Nothing certain seems known of M. Girardin's move ments, but it is said that the Ltiberte has been sold for one million two hundred thousand francs, which confirms the idea of his nomination to the Senate. Respecting the purchasers of the Liberte, some say that the proprietors of the Constitutionnel and the France have bought it, while others affirm that it will belong to a member of the Centre Gauche. The editors of the Rappel and the Pays have been in dulging in personalties to such an extent that a duel is looked for as the sequence of the dangerous amusement. It is rumoured here that M. Laboulaye, in conse quence of his unfavourable reception at the College of France, has well nigh abandoned the thought of becoming a senator. L' Univers quotes a statement, published by several pro. vincial journals to the effect that M. 011ivier, before leaving the Foreign Office, sent a final despatch to M. de Banneville, entreating him, above all things, to be cautious in his words. The French representative is to avoid all diplomatic conversation, whether official or un-offfcial, and his chief implores him to conduct himself as though the Council were not in existence, and as though its decisions had no reference whatever to every day life. Evidently, M. 011ivier, with a salutary remembrance of Count Daru's famous note, cannot share the Papal dream of personal and official infallibility. THE NAWAB NAZIM AND THE AFFAIRS OF THE NIZAMUT. Our magnificent Indian Empire, the arena of so many sanguinary conflicts and such grand military triumphs, the history of which has all the interest of romance, is con tinually furnishing us with some lesson; past experi ence has illustrated, not only native character, but that of the conquering race. It is impossible not to recognise the distinctive marks of each, impossible not to see that while all the untold wealth, the gor geous splendour, the unbounded influence which the East has poured into the lap of Britain, there are also, with all these rights of conquests, the rights of nations and indi viduals. It is of the utmost importance that our national honour should be unsullied in every transaction, especially should we maintain inv:olably treaties made with those who have been our firm friends and allies. No blot should be allowed to rest on the chronicles of the past, their pages should be free from every stain of dishonour, every mark of impolitic and unjust prejudice; justice, impartial and un erring, should be meted out with the most careful yet will ing hand, while all that statesmanship can secure, all that honourable diplomacy obtain, all that truth can effect and power bestow, should, with generous and unsparing liberality, be granted. Justice, in the truest, noblest sense of the word, is not only the debt we owe, but that which we canrot, dare not, withhold without losing uur prestige as a people, and our self-esteem as a nation. When his Highness, Syud Munsoor Ullee, the Nawab azim of Bengal, Behar and Orissa, one of India's princes, illustrious in descent, still ranking high among the Eastern represen tatives of Royalty and loyalty, comes to lay his claim be fore the people of England, we may be sure that he will re ceive, as he deserves, a patient and fair hearing. It is not the custom of England to ignore " numerous and valued services rendered ;" it is not the rule to strangle all hope of justice to those who seek it at her hands, and if the meanest subject of the realm feel this, how much more, when those whose position and wealth demand a hearing, should there be prompt and careful handling of the balance of justice? The claim which the Nawab presents against the Govern ment is entitled to, and should without doubt receive, im mediate consideration. It is not becoming our dignity as a nation, neither is it consistent with our national hon ur, to delay a decision fraught with so much importance. Whatever the traditions of the past may have taught us, and whatever the require ments of the present may demand, ought, undoubtedly, to have due weight, and great responsibility rests upon those in authority to see that strict and impartial justice should go hand in hand with generous recognition of past services rendered. That we should be without fear and without reproach in dealing with every question relating to India is a fact which ought to be fully recognised in all our dealings with that magnificent empire, and no circumstance whatever shf,uld be allowed to tarnish the fair fame of England or lessen the renown of English justice, as well as English magnanimity. THE CRISIS IN AUSTRIA. On Saturday Count Potocki, the President of the Vienna Ministry, presented a report to the Emperor, proposing the dissolution of the Reichsrath, and of ali the Diets except that of Bohemia. This document has not been published. The Ministry states that some of the demands which have been made for a reform of the Constitution, are not without fonetlation, and it remains to consider the best means, of effecting a change. They then proceed to say that the " idea of a dissolution of the legislative assemblies of the empire, in order to give more weight to their opinions and demands by new elections, has been one of the principal subjects under the consideration of the Ministry." It appears to the Ministry that the reorganisation of the constitutional rights of the countries represented in the Reichsrath so as to preserve the general interests, and at the same time to satisfy all just individual claims, can only be effected if the population of those countries is directly given an opportunity of giving expression and due weight to its opinions and political tendencies by new elections. The Minister believes, however, that an exception to the general dissolution of the Diets should be made in the case of Bohemia. The Ministry has not been able to convince itself that the Bohemian Diet would send deputies to the Reichsrath , and the difficulties of a solution would only perhaps have been increased by new elections and the hostile attitude of the Diet towards the Constitution." In consequence of this report, a decree, signed by the Em peror and all the members of the Ministry, has been issued, dissolving the Reichsrath and all the Diets of Western Austria except that of Bohemia. The parochial authorities of most of the Metro politan parishes have this morning, according to custom on Ascension-day, gone through the ceremony of marking their parochial boundaries—called, in parochial language, "Beating the Bounds," PRICE STAMPED Oor, 'ull/ ) oke the naDi po ol re e' °net ....1 d ...2d.
