They so perfectly re,emb:e the natural teeth as not to be distinguished fro n the originals by the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any pain ful operation, and wilt support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica- Hon.

TRANSPARENT CANDLES.—If you only want something pretty to look at, without minding a little smoke and smell, and a little bending and running over if the room should happen to be rather unusually warm, buy any of the very transparent low quality Para fine Candles now sold freely everywhere at ono shilling per pound ; but if along with beauty of appearance you require steady brilliancy of light, and freedom from risk of these little occasional mishaps, tell your dealer to supply you with "PRICES GOLD MEDAL PALMITINE CANDLES," which, though charged at a higher price per pound, are really cheaper when the difference of quality is taken into account. They are believed to be the very best substitute yet produced for real Wax and Spermaceti, now at such an extravagant price, and are being introduced in place of them in the West-end Clubs, and elsewhere where ex cellence of quality is studied as well as economy.

HART, 79, NEW BOND-STREET, has introduced ono of the lightest four-wheeled Carriages in London. The style is the T cart or Stanhope phaeton, on an improved principle. The peculiarity of thi. carriage is, it has sufficient room for lour persons, if required, and is 3 cwt. less than the usual ones ; it has no perch, and can Jock round in any narrow lane. The wheels are hickory, with steel tyres, springs only one inch wide, and has Lone's patent steel coated iron axles, which have received so many testimo nials. S. H. wishes to remind the public it has been proved many valuable horses are ruined by being overloaded with a heavy carriage. It is a well-known fact that the intro duction of light carriages is only now in its infancy. One is on view, and several to be seen building to order. An inspection is solicited. rrEETIL—Mr. WARD, S.M.D., 188, Oxford -11 street. - Artificial tooth, ss. to £1 ; complete set, £5 to £l2 ; filling, ss.

RHONDDA VALLEY, Saturday Evening. The telegram which appeared in The Sun of this day has prepared the public for the details of one of the most disastrous colliery explosions ever recorded. It was stated that 300 persons were in the colliery when the accident occurred, but it has since been ascertained that the number was greater. At two p.m. on Friday afternoon there were from 360 to 400 men underground, the exact number up to the hour of writing not being known. Of those who went down on Friday morning, some 62 have been brought up alive, but all hope of rescuing the others has been abandoned. The Ferndale Colliery, the scene of the accident, is situated near Rhondda Facb, in the Rhondda Valley, seven miles from Pontypridd and 21 miles from Cardiff, and is worked by Messrs. David Davis and Sons, extensive colliery proprietors in the Aberdare Valley. For some days in the end of last week the weather was foggy. So dense was the mist yest2rday morn ing morning that nothing could be distinguished half a dozen yards off, and in the neighbourhood of the colliery, which is situated at the bottom of a valley, between two ranges of lofty hills, the fog was parti cularly thick. No doubt this state of the air inter fered with the ventilation of the pit and caused an accumulation of fire-damp. The explosion occurred at half-past 1 o'clock, and such was its terrific force that the concussion shook the whole raine. The report was heard throughout the valley. Flames almost burst up the shaft of the pit, with a cloud of ashes and stones: It was evident at once to those above that a frightful accident had occurred, and steps were in stantly taken to descend the pit as soon as the state of the air rendered it safe. Messengers were sent down the valley to the neighbouring pits, and over the mountains to Aberdare and Merthyr, and from all parts of the district workmen rushed to the scene of the disaster. The manager of the colliery, Mr. J. Williams, was down in the workings at the time of the explosion, and efforts were first made to find him, if possible, so that, if alive, his assistance might be had in directing operations for the rescue of the men. He was among the first found, but, unhappily quite dead, having been suffocated with the choke damp. Exploring parties were rapidly formed and sent into all the workings, but the air was very foul, and they had to proceed cautiously for fear of an other explosion, the pit having been so shaken that large quantities of gas had escaped. They were also met by heavy falls in the airways, and in many instances the men had to be dug out with pick.and shovel. The process was excessively slow, and it was found that almost all had been suffocated by the carbonic acid gas before the men could descend the shaft to their assistance. 13y 7 o'clock in the evening only three persons had been rescued and about twenty bodies recovered. Of the three hitchers employed at the bottom, two bad been blown violently into th e sump an d killed by bruises, the third miraculou s l y escaped with slight inju r y . Relays of workmen were con ti n ually sent down, but the obstacles were more formidable than they anticipated, and the delay which took place— sometimes several hours elapsing before any body could be got at—was productive of the most intense and painful anxiety in the people who crowded round the pit waiting the arrival to the bank of their hapless relatives. The work of recovery went on without intermission during the whole -night, 'many of the volunteers remaining at work until they could scarcely stand with fatigue. The bodies were generally recovered in batches of 12 or 15 at a time, as the falls were removed, and then there was the prolonged interval of heartrending suspense. By 4 o'clock this morning four or five persons had been received above, almost all so frightfully injured that there is little hope of their recovery. Fifty ' three dead bodies had been recovered. Seven valu able horses were also found dead in the drift, and brought out. At this point the work of recovery was brought to a stand, for the force of the explo sion was such that the walls and roofs of the pit had been loosened, and enormous quantities of rubbish kept falling in all parts of the mine, choking up the air ways, and absolutely cutting off all the commu nications. Tramload after tramload of rubbish and masses of rock that had to be broken up with quarry ing tools had to be removed, and this added to the delay. a e wholeufforfytuh is ay was spent in clear ing level, behind whi c h it i s believed there are sotne 25 workmen. It is not thought that one of them can be alive, as the air current is completely cut off, and in th e f ace o f t h e working the atmosphere is so foul a n d d angerous that the working pal tie , s have to grop e th e i r wa y in utter darkness. Mr. Curnew, the manager of the Plymouth Collieries, Merthyr, and who was formerly manager of this very pit, went down about 11 o'clock to-day, with Mr. H. Lewis, of Merthyr, and remained with a working party in the foul air until 6 o'clock. He then thought that in the course of 12 hours the obstruction would be removed suf ficiently to get at the bodies. Mr. Curnew has de tarmined not to leave the pit until the Duffryn level has been cleared, and on Sunday morning his party will be relieved by a party under Mr. Morgan Joseph, who will be succeeded, if it becomes neces sary, by Mr. Jones, until the men are got out. Operations will then be commenced for the removal of the men in the other parts of the pit, all of whom, it is feared, are dead. In the Duffryn district at the time we write communication has been esta blished with two horses which were found alive, and water was supplied to them through a whole. It is hoped that these animals will be saved. The dis tance between Curnew's party and the workings beyond the fall was calculated at 7 o'clock to be about 20 yards, and to drive through it would take ti'l to-morrow morning. Messages frequently came to bank that the air was excNdingly oppressive. The crowd at the bank—two or three thousand in number—who bad pressed up close to the pit's mouth were then sent back by the police, and barzica.les put up so as to have an open space about the shaft. A stream of water was also sent down the shaft, and about an hour after this had been done the report was received that the air was greatly improved. Mr. Wales, her Ma jesty's Inspector of Mines for South IVales, arrived about three o'clock in the afternoon, and went dowin the pit. He was also down nearly the whole of the day, and the pit . has been visited by many viewers of the collieries in the adjoining valleys. The levels appear to have been injured beyond that of any other pit in the district which has been subjected to a similar calamity, so that, in addition to the awful and overwhelming sacrifice of human life, the pro prietors will suffer a heavy loss in property. This afternoon the Coroner for the county of Glamorgan, Mr. Overton, empanelled a jury, and inspected the bodies of the dead. A visit to the desolate homes where they lay disclosed cases of the most distressing character, whole families having been swept off. In one house a father and three sons lay stretched in death as though they were calmly sleeping, and the fourth sou lay dead a few doors off, leaving a young widow in an agony of grief. In another falnily of six that went out well and hearty in the morning only one had been brought back alive, and he will be a cripple for life should he survive his injuries. In some houses the poverty of the occupants was so great that they were destitute of the means of laying out the bodies, and conseqnently the corpses in all their ghastly dis figurement lay on the stone floor covered with sacks. In one house two lads injured lay on the floor as they were brought from the pit, the inmates fearing to touch them lest they should kill them too soon. In most of the houses the distress and sorrow were intensified by the fact that others were to come to swell the list of victims. In all cases certificates of burial were given and the funeral expenses, we be lieve, will be borne by the firm in whose service the unfortunate fellows have died. Orders were given by Mr. Davis for an unlimited supply of every thing requisite for the injured from the shops in the place, but sad to relate this generosity will not be largely drawn upon, for of all the 170 souls who were down the fatal pit at the outside it is feared only two can survive their injuries. As to the cause of the accident it would not only be premature, but rash, to venture an opinion, as until the fall in the main drift is cleared away and the whole of the workings open to inspection it will be impossible to obtain any data upon which to found a rational opinion. There is no evidence as yet to show where the gas exploded. The colliery, which has not long been in existence, has been rapidly extended, and it is sunk to the celebrated four-foot seam of Merthyr steam coal, about 300 yards below the surface. In ordi nary work the colliery employs about 300 hands, ' nearly equally divided between the day and night shifts, and the most of them reside in the village, which is within a short distance of the pit. It has a population of about 800, and has sprung up so rapidly that many of the houses are still of wood. It may also be observed, because it will explain how it has happened, that the details of an event which took place on Friday last have not been given to the public soaner, that the Ferndale Colliery is five miles and a half by road from the nearest station, Porth, on the Rhondda branch of the Taff Yale ; end persons starting froth Merthyr or Cardiff at 8 a.m. cannot get to the colliery until after 11 o'clock. From Aberdare the distance is scarcely less, and the route over wild hills is one of the most rugged and trying that pedestrians can encounter in this country. Sunday. _ _ This morning all hope of safety for those still below has been abandoned, as the managers of other collieries who were down in the pit the greater part of the night, on reaching the surface declared it to be an utter impossibility for any one of the un fortunate workers to be still alive. It is believed that the explosion took place in a heading where some 70 colliers were at work, the place becoming filled up, the only means of exit was cut off, and the remainder who were in the pit have been suffocated by the after damp. Relatives and friends are naturally loth to accept the prevailing belief, and they still cling to the hope of many being rescued, and they still linger about the pit. One poor woman was at the pit's mouth with an infant in her arms during the whole of Friday night, anxiously but vainly watching for her husband, who worked below, and it was not until yesterday morning that she consented to be led away. Mr. Williams' death was evidently caused by suffocation, as he was not at all burnt, and his features were as placid and as composed as if he were asleep. His body was found with that of nine others, all of whom have been recognised by sorrowing relatives. In another lot there was en aged man and his four grown up sons, all brought up in rapid suc cession, and all lifeless. The coal trade in this district has been in a depressed state for some time past, and several colliers from sonic of the small col lieries in the neighbourhood of Forth have been working at Ferndale, and numbers of those who visited the pit yesterday and to-day have had to walk several miles to obtain tidings, if possible, of relatives. An old and experienced manager who was in the pit during the whole of Friday night, says, although it has been his lot to witness the effects of many explosions, he never during the whole of his career beheld such a sight as which he witnessed belolV. He is also of opinion that unless very great care is taken other explosions will follow. Many of the bodies that have been brought to the surface are frightfully burnt, the clothing completely destroyed, and in some cases portions of the body have been literally burnt away, the charred remains present ing a sickening and frightful spectacle. At the time of the explosion 35 horses were working in the pit, and every one of them has been killed. Some of them had portions of their harness still on, but every vestige of hair was burnt off. It is difficult to conjecture what has been the cause of the accident, but it is feared that long immunity from accidents in the Rhondda Valley have made the colliers reckless of their safety. Some of the lamps have been found open, but some believe that this may have been caused by the force of the ex plosion, but those who are well acquainted with the construction of the safety lamp declaro that to be an impossibility. In the colliery is a new stable, in which it is said that four carpenters were working with naked lights. This is believed to have been the cause of the accident, as a large quantity of gas is said to be constantly in the pit. There are nume rous rumours afloat as to the cause of the accident, but nothing reliable has yet been ascertained. The following is a list of the dead at present known :—John Williams, manager, aged 50 ; Ben jamin Morris, 29 ; Thomas Thomas, 48, and four sons—John Thomas, 16, Lewis, 13, Thomas, 29, and Richard, 22 ; William Wills, 13 ; David Davies, 25 ; Thomas Vaughan, 23 ; Thomas Lewis, 19 ; John Harris, 26 ; John Owens, 25 ; Thomas Williams, 35 ; John Jenkins, 48 ; Phillip Saunders, 20 ; William Waters, 13 ; Evan James, 14 ; John Jenkins, 65 ; John Lewis, 28 ; Henry Hughes, 30 ; Morgan Jones, 36 ; Evan Meredith, 28 ; Benjamin Morris, 49, and four sons—Ebenezer Morris, 27, John, 23, Daniel, 21, and David, 17 ; Morgan Griffiths, 44, and son Morgan, 15 ; David Lewis, 34 ; John Williams, 25 ; Miles Hughes, 13 ; Robert W.

(From Newmarket Correspowlenf of the Racing Times.) The Spring and Au'uniu Meetings at Liverpool are generally regarded with considerable dread by those whose constitutions are not rn t,13 of the stro g sst us aerials, for there is no place in England where the wind usually blows more keenly during those seasons than at Aintree; but, fortunately, this last week was an exception to the rule, and the weather was pleasant to a degree. The gathering thrOughout the four days was unusually large ; the fields were numerically strong, and the contests in many cases next door to dead heats. At the same time—and let me hope this is the commencement of a new era—there was a perceptible falling off in the amount of gambling in comparison with what we have seen lately at Newmarket and other places. The "plungers" seem to have calmed down ; indeed, it is better for all parties that it should be so, for the "monkeys" and thousands betted on the most trivial events do not grow on trees, and when such enor mous amounts have to be paid on settling days, they are either found wanting, or the money lenders have to pro vide the means at an enormous rate of interest for those who are compelled to seek their aid. The racing on Tuesday commenced with the Hunters' Stakes, which was wort - by - the favourite, Mackintosh, and the backers drew firstblood for a wonder. Helen was made a great favourite for the Hurdle Race, loaa was bowled over by Maria Louise, who is a splendid jumper. Eadaleigh made her debut iu the jumping lino for this„event an 4 forwaid- stp was schooled by that vrellskil r own verterat %eife'Linl,'"who is ' now engaged as private trainer * to Earl Poulott, and brought all his horses to the post in splendid form, especially Benazet, who is wonderfully improved, and won his two steeple chases in a common canter, giving lots of weight to everything in the race. Dawdle won The Fly ing Stakes vary cleverly, as I predicted she would do, and from his running with Sundeolah at York it looked the good thing it turned out to be. The " turned loose " Blacklock won the Nursery by a head, for which his backers are principally indebted to Butler's fine riding. Maria Louise opened the ball on Wednesday by winning the Hurdle race, my selected one, Thalassius, running second ; but I fear Chris. Green will never be able to do much good with this rank roarer, as he jumped the hurdles very unkindly, and seems to have lost all form. The talent spotted two good things in the next races, as The Star and Yardarm both won in a canter. The Sefton Steeple Chase brought out a field of twelve very good looking animals, of which old Meanwood proved the best, as he won with consummate ease, carrying the steadier of 12st 71b. The King of Hearts, who was my choice, ran second, but I think with a professional jockey in the saddle ho would have given the winner a great deal more trouble. There are no class of men who require a stronger nerve and more re solution than a sporting writer, for every lunatic one meets volunteers false reports of private trials, which only tend to make bad horses great favourites and fill the pockets of bookmakers. Wo were told by the partisans of The Peer that Friday could not win the Cup with 6st, and the supporters of Regalia insisted that Caithness could not win with 6st 71b, but their performances in the actual race prove the fallacy of private trials. The mcment Regalia was called upon, as at Lincoln, she shut up like the rank jade she is. The public must now be satisfied that the mare went for the money, and that the taker of the sensa tional bet about Caithness was by far the best judge, as the latter with his original weight could not have lost. Indeed if he had not been shut iu towards the finish ho might have won as it was. The Poor verified the opinion 1 expressed in the columns of The Racing Times, that he was a slow bad horse, and that no boy could ride him ; and although he was first favourite for some time, until the friends of Ro galia put their money down so freely, he turned out a great impostor. Notwithstanding the assistance of the popu lar light weight was obtained, Kenyon could not get him to go straight in any part of the raco. As regards the winner, the following remarks were made by me in your paper of the `23th ult. : -" Handrake is a f air, honest horse, acid is not overwoighted, and as he ran a good race with Julius and the Palmer at Newmarket that would be put ting the C:sarewitch winner in at ist 'lib, and he would be a great favourite and nearly win, so that an investment on Mandrake at his present price woull most likely turn out a p:•olitable investinsnt." Those who took any advice at that time would win thir money, as they never had any chance of hedging it. Concerning Shrewsbury, the late Daniel O'Connell used to make a boast of being the best abused man in the House of Commons, and I think Mr. Frail can say with truth that he is the most abused Clerk of any course in England. At any rate certain parties find fault with almost every thing he does. Nevertheless, the programme before inn would do credit to Messrs. Weatherby or the gallant Admiral at head-quarters, and no impartial judge can detect the least partiality shown to any one horse in the different handicaps to be run at the ancient town of Shrewsbury this week. There are only four races closed for Monday. The Stewards' Cup has 41 horses entered, and whichever the Palmer and Stephenson confederacy go for, Caithness or Scipio, will about win. A lot of horses turned loose, such as the Lizard, could not win with a postage stamp on their back. Captain Kidd is well in, and will run well ; but I shall stand Tom Dawson's selected and Scipio, as the latter ran fast for a mile in the Liverpool Cup, and ought to win in this company. I think Master Toddy has not made a good match with Ainsley, to run his old crock Moose against her for 100 sovs, as the winner of the Park Hill Stakes would beat him at even weights. There aro 33 horses weighted for the Wynnstay Welter Handicap and if Chepstow can't win ho ought to be turned out of training, and next to him I have most fancy for Confederate. The Carnival Nursery has the large entry of 60, and no doubt -we shall soo about 20 runners, as there is quite that number that seem to have a chance of winning. Without going through the performances of all those that are likely to take part in the race, I have most fancy for Janet Raw cliffe, Mariner, and Lictor; and as Fordham will ride the latter, I shall vote for him to beat all corners. He beat King Alfred at Newmarket, giving him 51b, and we saw the Baron's colt get within three-quarters of a length of Rosierucian iu the Criterion. The Cleveland Plato (five furlongs) is a difficult race to deal with, as these short spins so much depend on how they got off. Liddington heads the list with 9st fib, and ho won at Bedford with such ridiculous ease that one can hardly tell what weight he could have carried, so I think ho is sure to boat all the top weights hero. Next to him I fancy Deceiver and Ironmaster. On Tuesday we have the Shrewsbury Cup, Battlefield Handicap, and the Wrokin Stakes open for discussion. If Rama runs he is sure to be a great favourite for the Cup, but I do not place so much confidence in his defeat of Lord Lyon at Lincoln, as some people do, for I am quite sure if Challoner had only roused Lord Lyon he would have won iu canter. I hope they may bring Lord Lyon here to-morrow for the Queen's Plate to meet Rama again, then we shall see who is right and who wrong. I shall expect to see Mandrake win the Queen's Plate against all comers, although some parties tell mo the Corporal could give him 71b, but there is no thing like public form, and lam quite sure Mandrake would have beat Julius and Palmer at Newmarket had the course been a quarter of a mile longer. He is as game a bit of stuff as ever was saddled, and, as 1 stated before, his defeat of Beeswing, at York, was not such a fluke as it was thought at the time ; but, as Unsworth would say, I must return to the subject, and look out for something to beat llama for the Cup. Lanaret, Moulsev, Beeswing, and GOMera have too much weight, and Mandrake's 141 b extra will stop him. Challenge is not good enough to beat Rama, although he cost £3,500. I really can't see anything to beat llama, providing ho com es in as good a temper to the post as he was at Lincoln. Now Guinea or Scipio might beat him, as they are both turned loose. The Battlefield Handicap is veryappropriate l y named, where Sir John Fal staff tolls us he fought Percy on the field where the races are now held a long hour by Sh re wsbury clock ; but the Fat Knight was like the Irishman, for he killed Percy after he was dead. Python or Aggravator will win, and if they both run it will be a good race. Liddington ought to win the Wrokin Stakes. Liddington is also in the Monk moor Handicap on Wednesday ; but ho will most likely have incurred a penalty before thou—if not he will be dan gerous, but Problem will meet him hereon 14Ibs• better terms than when she got second to him at Bedford, and may win. The Column Handicap is a difficult rite° to deal sever s • running settle the pretensions ofl previous may engaged in this race, but presuming they have not ina le a mistake in the Corporal's trial, and if ho is as good a horse as Mandrake at a mils and a quarter, he may win, as the horse is here and looks and goes well. Previous running may likewise settle the pretensions of some of those engaged in the Copeland Nursery. Janet Raweliffe, The Returned, and Morning Star look as well in as any thing. The Shobdon Cup I shall leave to Liddingtou and Knight of the Garter. In the Newport Gold Cup 1 have most fancy for Moulvy and linight of the Garter. Pre vious running is also sure to upset all calculations about the Caldicot Nursery, therefore I shall not hazard an opinion on that race, and shall at once dismiss the two Handicap Hurdle raceA, and award both of them to Maria Louise. For the Uawkstone Wolter Cup I fancy Confederate or Orne ; the latter could win if ho would take it into his hea I to try. For the Autumn Steeplechase I fancy Benazet, as he is in such form just now that one can hardly tell what ho can do with a lot of duffers; and the same may be said about Flyftsher for the Lougner Steeplechase. Qniarag ITALIAN Alrk_Allta_s The French troops are proceedirgato gectimPutli e th small towns in th e R oman territory: l. 'll4 'have 'treacly occupied Viterbo, and were at the date of our latest information pushing on to Agnapendente, Velletri, Orte, &e. The object is to drive out the remnant of the red shirts. At the approach of the French tie Garibaldian take refuge within the Italian lines, where they ax e , disarmed. The Papal sympathisers in the French press tree, i n raptures at the reception given at Rome to the tiictor3 returning from Mentana. The Pope is said to ha com-* pared it to an ancient triumph. His Holiness is , not less pleased with the subcriptio ns which have klorne to replenish his ex - chequer from Franc., Spain, France sent some two Millien francs. The accounts of the battle of Arentana make it clear that the Garibaldians had four times as runny killed and wounded as the Papal and French troops. This difference, says the Temp.; v..as owing to the possssion by the latter of the Chassqint rifle, which it is said "did wonders."), A correspondeLt of the Figaro states that generally guns of the Garibaldians were of a very inferior desr, r i p. tion. A large number of them were of a verz. fashioned make, English, French, and Italian. A correspondent, writing from Rome on the 4th, say, that 800 Garibaldian prisoners had been received in the city on that day. Their appearance was of the most bizarre description. A crowd of not less than 40,000. people witnessed their entry. No demonstration w made, but the sympathy of the Roman people with th e prisoners was, it is said, sufficiently manifest in their coon, tenances. It appears from the language of the official journals in Prussia that that State would not consent to a conference of the Great Powers except on the preliminary condition, that France should evacuate the Roman territory. Tl- z e Independence considers it probable that the Fre , t eh Government would willingly recall its troops to satisfy the Prussian scruples. The Etendard anticipates that th.e prin. ciple of a conference will be accepted by all the Powers. The same paper states that all through the Italian embroglio the. Prussian Cabinet has made use of the most friendly teem, communications with the French Government. The Prussian Ambassador was instructed to make known at the Tuileries King William's pawnsj sympathies for the cause which France was upholding in Italy—that of public order and international right. We are not informed what assurances have been given to the Court of Berlin. STATE OF FEELING IN PARIS. According to a correspondent, Napoleon 111. is in very bad humour with himself for his Italian success. Hie, personal popularity for the first time since he began to reign is seriously questioned. Work is slack and bread is dear, and he has taught the people during sixteen years that he can prevent these things. During the last week the police in the workmen's quarters of Paris were erne ployed in tearing down affiches headed "Pere bon marchie') which are full of Socialist demands and arguments for employment. This correspondent says :—" The news. papers are not allowed to notice these things; but a friend of mine who has just returned from the French capital has told me of many instance; that came under his personal observation withi n the last few days. There is a g eneral expectation that to break the spell of depression and disappointment, the fle" peror will make a plunge in some direction or other. The blood spilt at Mentana has not obliterated that abed at Queretaro ; and the occupation of Rome does not compen sate national vanity for the abanclgnment of Saerbruck and Luxembourg. Altogether, the feeling is one of great uneasiness; and in the midst of it, the Government will have to launch a new loan and to debate the bill for the re organisation of the army." The French Liberal journals take a malicious pleasure in reminding their Emperor of his former self. The Temp, has just reproduced a letter addressed by Louis Napoleon Be:lapel ts to the Temps of that day. It is dated London, 17th June, 1831, and reads thus :—" Sir, I read in your journal of the 13th the following article :—"lhe Duchess of Saint. Lcu has resided in London for several weeks. It is said that the Ex-Queen of Holland is there watching for an opportunity to offer her son (the Emperor) to the Belgians, in case they should find themselves embarrassed in the choice of a sovereign.' It seems that you are disposed to impute to the presence of my mother in England a politi. cal object. My mother is there because she does not wish to Ise separated from her only surviving son. Having taken part in the sacred cause of Italian independence, I have been compelled to take refuge in England, France being, alas still closed. My mother desires only rest and tranquillity. As to myself, far from having ambi tious ideas, my only desire shall be to serve my country, or liberty in foreign countries ; and long ago I should have been seen a simple volunteer in the ranks of the Belgians, and in those of the immortal Poles, if I had not been afraid that motives of personal interest would have been imputed to my actions, and that my name would disturb timid diplomatists, who can never believe in the disinterested devotion and sympathy which inspire unfortunate peoples." It is rather odd to find Louis Napoleon as much a terror to diplomatists in 1831 as the man whom be strives to suppress in 1867. The French Government has given way in the matter of the octroi duties. The manager of the large foundry at Lavillette has been informed that the duties will not be enforced, and in consequence he gave notice that work would be resumed on Monday. In another matter till more important the authorities have yielded their position in face of the growing discontent among the Paris population. The law officers of the Government have discovered that the arrests at Montmartre were illegal. The accused are not likely to obtain any redress for the week's solitary confinement to which they have been subjected. In order to sue the police they must obtain the authorisation of the Council of State, which would almost certainly be refused. The liberty of the press under the Second Empire is more restricted than the liberty of the person. The Courrier Francais ventured to discuss freely the interven tion in Italy. It was arraigned for a breach of the Senatus Consultum "prohibiting the discussion of the Constitution." The manager of the paper has been fined I,ooof. ; the writer of the article complained of, Al . Duchene, has been sentenced to a month's imprisonment and a fine of 500 f. ; and the printer was fined 200 f, GERMANY. France continues to regard with great anxiety the annexation of South to North Germany. The Presse of Vienna appears to chew that no dangerous understanding can have been come to on this subject while Francis Joseph was at Paris. This paper says France will not make of any internal changes that may take place in Germany a pretext for her interference. The union of North and South Germany is inevitable. The great mass of the people of South Germany have no objection to enter into the Confederation of the North. The strongest motives in South Germany, economical and military, demand it. On this the Liberte remarks : "Such is the opinion of Austria. Make the passage of the Maine a cases UM, and you will add to the history of perilous interventions the most unfortunate of all." The task of finishing the organisation of the North German Confederation progresses rapidly. The Saxon army is now completely re-organised as the Second Corps of the Confederation. Saxony independent had an army of 18,000 men ; Saxony absorbed must furnish Prussia, her •military leader, with 22,500. AMERICA. The Times notices the loan which is about to be intro. duced in connection with the irrepressible question of the transit across Central America. On this occasion the route is one of 230 miles through the State of Honduras, from Puerto Caballos, on the Atlantic, to the Bay of Fonseca, on the Pacific, which, although much longer than that of Panama, has the advantage of saving 1,103 miles in the steam navigation between New York and California and British Columbia. The allegation is that it can be constructed for £B,OOO per mile, and, indeed, a contract has been entered into for its entire completion at that rate, including stations and rolling stock. Even at this low charge, however, the cost would be nearly £2,000,000, or double the sum now asked• To provide for the balance a novel, but legitimate, com mercial plan has been agreed upon. The State of Hon duras is to hypothecate all its domains and mahogany forests as security for the £1,000,000 loan and its redemption by yearly drawings within seventeen years, and the pro ceeds of this loan are to make a section of the railway which will reach these forests and enable the timber to be brought down for shipment. Any distrait that may be entertained with regard to projects designed to facilitate communication between the Atlantic and the Pacific arises from the fear that the funds may be squandered in jobbery. Otherwise, both in London and New York, a conviction is very generally entertained among the mercantile classes that if every one of the routes from time to time suggested during the last twenty years—namely, the Atrato, the Chiriqui, the Nicaragua, the Honduras, and the Tehuantepec—were opened up, they would each have an extraordinary busi- ness, and would all yield rapidly-increasing revenues. The alleged overtures of peace on the part of the Govern ment of Brazil to that of Paraguay have been semi-autho ritatively denied in Paris. An official paper, however, states that there can be no doubt that Mr. Gould, her Majesty's Secretary of Legation at Buenos Ayres, has made overtures of peace on behalf of the allied armies. The Brazilian Government, which has the least interest in the continuance of the war, is said to be convinced of the resolution of the people of Paraguay "to fight it out to the bitter end" rather than submit to foreign inter.
