THIS DAT.—Morning, 4h. Om, I Afternoon, 4h. 14m To-Monnew.-Morning, 4h. 30m. I Afternoon, ,L4h. 48m itt egg, P 4-43114 LONDON THURSDAY, OCT. 31, 1867. No one can say that the Chancellor of the Exchequer has been idle in Edinburgh, for the proceedings of yesterday might well have occupied two or three ordinary days. At two o'clock the right bon. gentleman was presented with the free dom of the city, in the Music Hall ; at half-past three the degree of LL.D. was conferred upon him by the University, in the Hall of the University Library ; and in the evening, at eight o'clock, be attended a working-men's meeting, for the purpose of receiving a complimentary address. All these complimentary arrangements were successfully car ried out, and the very varied powers of oratory which the right hon. gentleman possesses were exhi bited to great advantage by these several require ments. It is satisfactory to find that Mr. DISRAELI was everywhere welcomed with the most enthusiastic applause, and that the cordiality exhibited within the walls of the buildings was quite equalled by the crowds outside. The Music Hall was crowded, and the Lord Provost &livered an excellent address, full of interest, and replete with historical informa tion and reference. It is true that the gift of a diploma, constituting an individual a burgess and freeman, is nowadays more in the nature of a sentiment than a reality, but it compre hends " much that is traditionally curious and suggestive." The Lord Provost went on to say that this certificate was conferred on Mr. DISRAELI as a token of profound respect and good will. "It was conferred on no principle of political partisanship, but simply on the broad ground of the right hon. gentleman's distinction as a statesman, and in admiration of the tact, temper, and ability displayed by him in connexion with the House of Commons, and respect for him als) as a man THE - SUN, LONDON, THITESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 31, 1867 letters." Thee Chancellor of the Exchequer, in making his acli - nowledgments for the honour con ferred upon him, declared that he felt the more im pressed by the gift, since it was well known that no political connexion n or identity existed between that Corporation an d the party with which he was associated. re fully agree with the right hon. gentleman that this is indeed a circumstance of peculiar significance, and of great moment. As he happily expressed ..;t, they " were paying a homage, a healthy homage to that public life which is the soul of free states." There is, indeed, no higher reward to which public men can aspire, no greater privilege they can boast of, no more consolatory reflection to dwell upon, than the fact that their fellow-citizens have deemed them worthy of honour and regard. Touching upon political questions, Mr. DISRAELI gained loud cheers from his auditory by declaring that her MAJESTY'S Government had fully made up their minds that Scotland deserved and required increased representation, and that they meant to support and further that opinion to the utmost extent of their influence. As for education, the topic which just now is so interesting and important, Mr. DISRAELI said that he had always been the supporter of popular and public education, and therefore did not come as a novice to the consideration of the matter. Scotland has a good right to judge this question, being, as he emphatically styled it, a nation singularly blessed and favoured in this respect. Mr. DISRAELI is not prone to indulge in these Utopian ideas which some statesmen delight in, and therefore it is the more encouraging to find that be considers it very likely in the next session of Parliament something may be done to adapt the ancient system that has long flourished in Scotland to the requirements of the present age. The ceremony of conferring the degree of Doctor of Laws on the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Right Hon. R. LOWE took place. After de claring that an expression of confidence from so distinguished a body as that before him, and one so " connected with the sacred cause of learning, science, and philosophy," was deeply gratifying, he concluded by stating that he should be very happy to see in the next session of Parliament the representative of the University of Edinburgh. There is great truth in the right hon. gentleman's declaration on behalf of his party that it had always desired to see the " great seats of learning and philosophy raise their luminous and lettered points in the Parliament of this country," for the Con servatives have always honoured learning, and sought to render due homage to its votaries. Mr. LOWE created considerable amusement by remark ing that the right hon. gentleman had left him little to do except that which he feared he was not in the habit of doing, namely, toagree with him in everything he had said. The right hon. gentleman contrived, however, to make some interesting remarks, and, among other things, said that of all the honours reaped by the Scotch Universities nothing was more ennobling than this, while "they offer an admirable education to the children of the rich, they offer an education equally suitable and equally admirable to the children of the poor." The eventful day was crowned by the Chancellor of the Exchequer proceeding to the Music-hall to receive a complimentary address from the working men. There could have been no exaggeration in Mr. DISRAELI'S opening remarks that had he con sulted his personal convenience he would not have appeared on that occasion. He felt, how ever, that he could not refuse to accede to the very cordial request that had been made to him ; and while he was able to say that no man living could more heartily concur with their con gratulations upon the bill that had just passed into law, he could not take himself all the merit of that happy occurrence. It is worthy of remark that' while the Liberals are for ever disputing about theft rival claims to precedence, the Conservatives seem to be eager to yield the palm to each other. Mr. DISRAELI declares that he served under a Prime Minister " who is the leading-spirit of the Cabinet, between whom and him self there is perfect and entire sympathy; and he was supported by colleagues who entirely agreed with him." He paid a well-deserved tribute to his party, which evinced a devotion and energy " scarcely to be equalled in the history of the con stitution of any country." The high feeling of the present House of Commons was also handsomely acknowledged by its leader. Perhaps some persons may profit by the confession which Mr. DISRAELI makes of the nature of " the black devices" he re sorted to to gain his ends and further his objects. " Upon every question I took my own party into confidence, and when I had to appeal to an independent Opposition I remembered at all times that they were men of sense and gentle men." This doubtless explains a good deal, and a statesman or minister can never hope to succeed in his dealings with others if lie does not think more of their feelings than of his own sentiments. In taking a retrospective glance at his parliamentary career, now of more than thirty years' duration, Mr. DISRAELI was happy in being able to affirm that he could find no part of it which showed that he had taken a part against the interests of the working classes. He has supported every one of the Acts that has been passed for the amelioration of the condition of the working men. Those who have been intimately acquainted with the right hon. gentleman's public life will know that this is strictly true, and that before he took so prominent a part in the councils of the nation and the proceedings of the Legislature he devoted his time and his talents to the cause of the poor, and in one of his most brilliant works depicted many of the glaring evils that disgraced our civilisation. In nothing has Mr. DISRAELI been more consis tent than in his advocacy of the advantages of the press, and he very properly introduced that sub ject in alluding to the depreciatory remarks made by those who put other countries before ours in an educational point of view. " I remember," said he, " with pride and consolation that England alone is the country in which a free press practically and really exists." As to the working of the Reform Bill, the right hon. gentleman concluded his im pressive address by giving his hearers some sound advice, which, if they follow, will prove that he was their friend and best adviser and counsellor. He besought them when they gained their political privileges to exercise them in a manner worthy of patriotic and intelligent men. " Disappoint all the forebodings of your false friends and foes, do not listen to those who tell you that you have boon invested with democratic rights, and therefore you must effect great changes in the fortunes and con ditions of oue of the most considerable nations and Governments that ever existed. Be proud of the confidence which the constituted authorities of the country have reposed in you. Show that you are about to be invested with popular privileges ; that you know the value of popular privileges ; and that you will exercise them to maintain the in- stitutions of your country, and to increase its power, its glory, and its fame." The close of the Paris Exhibition, which was to have been simultaneous with the last days of Oc tober, is to be deferred for three days, Yesterday afternoon the Imperial Commission decided that it should remain open until Sunday next, which will be the day of closing, a decision to which the foreign commissioners promptly agreed, making only the graceful stipulation that the reecipts of those days should be distributed among the poor of Paris. This will form a welcome and appropriate conclusion to the Imperial display, and since the last days of any exhibition aro usually the most thronged with visitors who are eager to seize the opportunity, the amount thus benevolently disposed of will probably be of considerable amount. More especially will it be welcome to the poor of Paris at the approach of the winter months, and at the close of a season in which, notwithstanding the vast in flux of visitors and consequent gaiety, the high prices of the necessaries of life have told heavily on slender purses. 'rho price of bread, which, as we know, is the most important staple of the lower classes among the French peasantry, has been for some time past a serious grievance, and there is un happily not much hope of a speedy improvement. The proposal of the Foreign Commissioners is, moreover, a graceful act of international courtesy, and manifests that kindly sympathy towards the suffering classes of another country which betokens a real entente cordiale. Sunday being the regular day for sight-seeing in Paris, the numbers who witness the close of the Great Exhibition will pro bably be very large. Last Sunday the visitors were estimated at no less than 15%000. Many of these had free tickets and belonged to the working classes. Tuesday was the day for the children, and thou sands of eager little faces were visible. All accounts agree that as the brilliant spectacle approaches its end the throngs of visitors increase. Indeed, the Exhibition, it is said, has been so full that it has been difficult to move about. Not the least important of its functions has been its office of educator to the working classes. French artisans, as a rule, have no lack of taste in their workmanship, but for that very reason they may be better able to appreciate and to profit by the gor geous variety of the Exhibition. Thanks to the kind and considerate exertions of geuine well. wishers to the working classes, mechanics and artisans from other countries have been able to inspect the Exhibition. The great advantage of this is that they can understand the full force of that universal competition which nowadays exer cises so potent an influence over the action of trade and commerce. No words, however forcible, no delineations, however able, could so forcibly im press on the minds of the English work man the rapid progress of his Continental rivals in every industrial art as a single visit to the Paris Exhibition. Our Paris correspondent in yesterday's impression comments upon the difference perceptible in the French and English departments. " England," he says, " has shown great advance in art, taste, and industry, but as a spectacle the English department is dull and flat compared vi ith the French." " The Exhi bition of Aubusson," he adds, " forms a fairy palace with which the Palace of Aladdin could not bear comparison." The strong points of English work manship lie in other directions, and there is little fear but that they can hold their position against all competitors if they but exert themselves to do it. The Paris Exhibition, it is to be hoped, will disabuse them of the notion that they can retain their position without exertion, and if it gives a fresh stimulus to their energy, their industry, and their ambition, it will have done good service to England as well as to France. The news from Italy, though eagerly looked for, is as yet in no way decisive. The Moniteur of yes terday announces that the French fleet arrived at Civita Vecchia on the 28th, at which date Rome was tranquil. GARIBALDI was within a few miles of the city on the 29th, but the rumour that the Italian troops would cross the Papal frontier on that night is now declared to have been premature. GARIBALDI'S answer to the request of the Italian Government that he should lay down his arms is expected this day, though it cau hardly be hoped that he will listen to the voice of prudence and obey the call. ills outposts on the 29th were little more than three miles from Rome, and he will be reluctant to abandon his enterprise at the very crisis. At Florence up to the latest date all was quiet, and the demonstrations made at Turin and Naples have, according to the Moniteur, been re pressed without any disturbance. Precautions have been taken at Rome, and all remains in suspense. The situation is a critical one for the peace of Europe, and it would be well if those who occupy the posts of leaders would pause and consider what the consequences of rash and reckless action are likely to be to Continental freedom. The old fable of the shadow and the substance is likely to be realised ; not that the Continental nations are as yet in full possession of popular rights, but that violent and reactionary changes will im peril all they have won. Italy at least has little reason to be dissatisfied with the progress of the last ten years, but who can foretell her position ten years hence should zeal without discretion bring upon her all the evils of foreign intervention, and make her once more " a .geographical expression" instead of a hopeful and prosperous reality. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. Wednesday E ven i ng . (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) • There is still a g P re A a ß t lS interruption in the com munications from Rome, which gives full swing to the inventors of news. Garibaldi, we are told, is under the walla of Rome. Nothing further is known in reference to the alleged continuation of the struggle at Monte Rotondo, although the report is that it was retaken by the insurgents. Some doubt is now thrown upon the report of the death of the Deputy Acerbi. The Garibaldian chiefs killed were Messrs. Franchio and Salviati. One of the accounts says that Menotti Garibaldi was at Scad riglia. When Garibaldi was at Florence with his volunteers be made a speech to them, in which he said plainly that they were marching to death, and told those who were afraid of it to leave the ranks. He also said it would be better for those to retire who could not support hunger, thirst, long marches, and fatigues of all sorts. In pursuance of this speech a few young men, not strong enough to bear arms, were, by order of Garibaldi, sent home by the chiefs. The grand banquet of sovereigns on Monday evening at the Hotel de Ville went off with great eclat and satisfaction to all. Besides the Emperor of Austria there were present the Queen of Hol land and King Louis I. of Bavaria. The place de l'Hotel de Ville was magnificently illuminated. The Emperor IN apoleon and the Empress arrived with their Royal gues's shortly before seven, and were received by the Prefect of the Seine and the municipal authorities. The scene was gorgeous in the extreme, but it has been often described. The Emperor of Austria was dressed in splendid Hun garian uniform, scarlet embroidered with gold, with the white dolman. His brothers wore the same uniform as at the review. The table of honour for the Royal party was resplendent in the extreme, and, of course, it was ornamented with the magni ficent and unparalleled- surtout de table, or table ornament, manufactured by the house of Messrs. Christofle & Co. With the King of Bavaria, Queen of Holland, and the Emperor Napoleon were several Ambassadors, the Duchess of Hamilton, and Prin cess Metteruich. At another table were the Em press, the Emperor of Austria, Princess Mathilda, and several other members of the Bonaparte family, 'At dessert the Emperor Napoleon proposed the health of the Emperor of Austria, which was duly honoured. A calculation has been made that the number of plates used was 7,352. There were 2,484 glasses. To eat the magnificent viands and delicacies prepared 5,000 knives and forks were used. Upon the whole there never was a more magnificent banquet even at the Hotel de Ville, so celebrated for magnificent dinners and splendid balls. When the Emperor of Austria was at the Exhi bition, and the crowd pressed around him, a little girl of five years, whose mother held her in her arms, and who could not see anything as so many persons were before her, cried out, " I want to see the Emperor." The Emperor saw and heard her, and passing through the crowd, which respectfully made way, he took the child in his arms and ki,sed her on both cheeks. There being a sweet meat stand close by, the Emperor went in and selected a magnificent bag of bons-bons, which he placed in the little child's Lands, who gave it to her mother. The Emperor bowed graciously to her and the child was delighted. All the spectators of the scene cheered with enthusiasm, and the child throw ing her arms round her mother's neck said, "Oh ! mother, the Emperor kissed me." The following are the exact terms of the speech of the Emperor of Austria, in returning thanks for the toast to his health by the Emperor Napoleon, at the Hotel de Vile : " Sire, —I am very grateful for the toast which your Majesty has just proposed. When a few days ago I visited the tomb of my ancestors at Nancy, I could not help forming a wish. May we, I said to myself, bury in this tomb, confided to the care of a generous nation, all the discords which have sepa rated two countries destined to proceed together in the route of progress and civilisation. (Repeated applause.) May we by our union offer a fresh guarantee of that peace without which nations can not prosper. (Bravo, bravo ! Vive l'Empereur.) I thank the city of Paris for the reception it has given to me, for in our days the relations of friend ship and goodwill between Sovereigns have a double value, as they are based upon the sympathies and the aspirations of the people." The Emperor of Austria then proposed the toast of " The Emperor, Empress, and the Prince Imperial. To France. To the city of Paris." Applause which seemed to shake the building followed this toast. The Emperor of Austria has expressed his ex treme satisfaction with his visit to Paris. His Majesty intended to leave to-morrow, but he has announced to his suite that he means to prolong his stay until Monday next. His Majesty goes about everywhere, sometimes to the theatre. On Monday he walked about the Champs. Elysees. To-day, I believe, he is gone to Compiegne. His Majesty has paid a visit to the Hale, where the banquet of which I made mention was presented to him. It is announced officially that the French fleet arrived on Monday evening at Civita Vecchia. All was quiet at Rome at that period ; but Garibaldi was at a distance of only a few miles from the city. The telegraphic communications were still inter rupted. There has been a Cabinet Council to-day at St. Cloud, at which the Emperor presided. The Queen of Holland left Paris last night on her return home by way of Heidelberg. To-day the weather has been magnificent, more like summer than advanced autumn. The Exhibition has been a scene of joyous excite ment, so full that locomotion was a matter of diffi culty. Naval and Military Intelligence. In The Sun of yesterday allusion was made to the planting of trees and shrubs in the camp at Alder shot, and to the good effect which might be ex pected to result from the experiment. In the Camp Divisional Orders issued yesterday the following paragraph in relation to the same subject, and to damage recently sustained in the camp, was pro mulgated :—" The Lieut.-General regrets to find that much mischief is done in the Camp by the children of soldiers who are constantly swinging on the rails of the plantations and injuring the young trees which have been planted for the use and orna ment of the Camp. A serious loss also has occurred from children using lucifer matches as playthings, thereby endangering the lives and property of all who live in camp. The Lieut.-General will hold the parents of children responsible for their conduct, and, should he have reason to find fault again, those who disobey these orders will be removed from quarters in camp or barracks." Brevet Major Edmondstoune, 32d Light Infantry, is under orders to proceed to Landguard Fort, Har wich, to-morrow, to assume the command of the troops of that station, vice Major Cowell, Bth Depot Battalion, who returns to Colchester. Her Majesty's Indian troopskip Serapis arrived at Alexandria on the morning of the 29th inst., with the 4th Hussars, batteries of the Royal Artillery, and draughts of various regiments, to be conveyed to Bombay from Suez in the Jumna. The general court martial which recently assembled at Chatham garrison, under the presidency of Col. R. H. Crofton, commanding the Royal Artillery in the Chatham district, for the trial of Sapper William Thompson, Royal Engineers, was dissolved yester day, the proceedings and finding of the court having been submitted to her Majesty for approval. The prisoner was tried for having been guilty of grossly insubordinate conduct on the occasion of the sen tence passed on him by a previous court martial by which he had been tried being promulgated to the officers and men of the Royal Engineers. On the occasion referred to the prisoner made use of dis gusting language, and threatened also Capt. and Adjt. F. A. Marindin with bodily injury. The pri soner is altogether a man of the most depraved character, and since the short time he has been in the service has been tried 3 times by court martial. The general court martial found the prisoner guilty, and in consideration of his former bad character sentenced him to be branded with the letters "8.C.," to be imprisoned and kept at hard labour for two years, such imprisonment to commence on the com pletion of the term to which he had formerly been sentenced, and to be dismissed from her Majesty's service with ignominy. Yesterday Major-Gen. F. Murray, commanding the Chatham district, attended by Brigade-Major W. W. Lynch, 2d Royals, proceeded from head quarters on a tour of inspection of the troops quartered in the Isle of Grain, together with the engineering works for the better defence of the Thames and Medway, completed and in progress. The troops stationed at the Isle of Grain consist of 7th company of Royal Engineers and a detachment of infantry of the 3d Depot Battalion, the whole under the command of Capt. E. F. S. Lloyd, Royal Engineers. After inspecting the officers and troops, who were drawn up on the parade-ground near their casemated quarters, Gen. Murray went over the barrack-rooms and various establishments, after which he inspected the books, accounts, and official records, subsequently visiting and inspecting the works connected with the defences which are now being carried on by the sappers and miners of the Royal Engineers, the inspection occupying until late yesterday afternoon. The company of Royal Engineers now doing duty at the Isle of Grain will shortly return to headquarters, in consequence of the prevalence of marsh fever at the station. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Commander John B. Bar nett to the Indus ; Commander R. P. Dennistoun to be inspecting commander of the Coastguard at Bangor, vice Fitzmaurice, deceased ; Lieut. C. S. Shuckburg to the Urgent ; Lieut. Alexander P. Hastings to the Zealous ; Lieut. H. T. Marsden to the Terror ; Lieut. John Anderson to the Myrmi don ; Lieut. C. A. Blake to the Minotaur ; Lieut. J. F. L. Maclear to the Octavio. ; William L. ‘Vright, paymaster, to the Castor ; Simeon Mat thews, chief engineer, to the Myrmidon ; Her bert Binch, engineer, to the Donegal ; Daniel Ferguson, engineer, to the Myrmidon ; Hugh Lon don, first-class assistant-engineer, to the Myrmi don ; Thomas S. Stanlake, acting second-class ass Bistant-engineer, additional, to the Myrmidon, LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) THE ROMAN QUESTION. PARIS, Oct. 31. The Moniteur of this morning announces that, in consequence of the interruption in the Pontifical telegraph lines, no intelligence has been to-day re ceived from Rome subsequent to that of yesterday. It was known only that the Papal garrisons of Viterbo and other towns were concentrating upon Rome to aid in its defence, it being threatened by Garibaldi. The same journal says :—" Certain papers con clude from the proclamation of King Victor Emmanuel that the settlement of the Roman ques tion would be arranged between France and Italy. The French circular, however, of the 25th October cannot leave any doubts as to the intention of the Government to submit to the examination of all the great Powers a question which interests entire Europe." FLORENCE, Oct. 30 (Evening). The Official Gazette of this evening says : " The French Moniteur having announced that the French flag waves upon the walls of Civita Vecchia, the Government of the King, in conformity with the declarations made by it previously to friendly Powers, in view of such an eventuality, has given the order to the Royal troops to cross the frontier and occupy some points of the Pontifical territory." The Gazetta di Fereiriza says :—" This morning at eleven the King ordered the Italian forces to cross the Papal frontiers. The troops are now advancing upon Civita Castellano, Orte, Acqua pendente, and Frosenone." HUNGARY. PESTrI, Oct. 30 (Evening). To-day in the Lower House of the Hungarian Diet the special committee presented its report on the demand of the Minister of Justice for permission to prosecute Deputy Bohzormrye for publishing a late letter of 111. Kossuth. The report urges the House to grant the required permission. The debate on the question will come off on Saturday. 11.1. Kossuth himself has addressed a communication on the subject to the President of the Lower House, stating that the letter in question was published by Deputy Bohzormrye with M. Kossuth's full consent. WURTEAIBURG. STUTTGARDT, OCt. 30 (Evening). To-day in the Chamber of Deputies the treaty of alliance with Prussia was adopted by 58 against 32 votes.

A few weeks ago we announced that this agitation, which during the summer induced so much loss to masters and misery to employed, had concluded by the unconditional submission of the operatives. There are some details in connexion with the move ment which may be interesting at the present time, when the whole nation is narrowly watching the attitudes of trades' union societies. The number of houses in which the strike prevailed was, it may be remembered, about 90, and the number of men who took part in it about 2,800. Most of these were skilled workmen from west-end houses, and the sacrifice they made in vindication of a mis taken principle may be estimated when we state that they remained out of employment fully six months—that is to say, from April to October. The average receipts per week of each of these men during that period of the year may be taken at about £2, so that, making allowance for the " scale" to which each man on strike was entitled during the continuance of the agitation, the loss to the operatives who took part in the movement must have been something like £70,000 (on the men's own showing it was more), or about £25 per head. For this the only return they have obtained is a loss of confidence in the trade and final and decided defeat. At the beginning of October about 200 of those who had struck returned to the shops in which they had been formerly employed, 200 found work in the co-operative establishments instituted by the men, while a similar number availed them selves of the scheme of emigration which had been devised for improving the labour market at home. The shops in which the strike did not prevail gave work to 500 more, so that about 1,000 remained out of employment at the beginning of the present month. Still more recently the difficulties which presented themselves in the way of continu ing the movement—the impossibility of carrying it on with any efficacious result without picketing, and the . decided violation of the law which would be committed by the continuance of that system—in duced the committee of the operatives' association to recommend the men on strike to surrender on the terms which the masters would propose, one condi tion, however, being reserved, namely, that the operatives should not be compelled to leave the union before resuming work. The masters, with judicious forbearance, took back the men without demanding any such concession. The extraordinary levies made on the trade during the strike have been reduced by order of the committee to the normal payment of 6d. per head per week, and the annual meeting of the association will be held in November, when the balance-sheet kept during the strike will then be submitted to the society. A scheme will also be presented for the consolidation of the operative tailors throughout the kingdom into ono amalga mated association. With a view to this result a series of public meetings arc being held in various districts of the metropolis for the formation of dis trict branches of the operatives' society. The men contend with, a pertinacity which is only equalled by the fallacy of their argumentation, that they have won a victory, though they are not able to pursue it further. They admit, however, that the London masters are the most liberal in Eng- laud, and they allege that the strike was undertaken, not through any vindictive feeling, - but for the main tenance of a principle. "Dear suffered very much from a pain in my side for twelve months. I tried a great many remedies, but got no relief until I used the Pain Killer, when I soon began to recover, and am now quite well.—Yours truly, ANN Mvitruv."

PETERSBURG, Oct. 24.—The celebration of tho marriage of the King of the I.lellenes with the Grand Duchess Olga , Constantinovna has been definitively fixed for Sunday next, Oct. 27. DRURY-LANE 7 HEA7RE. Lord Lytton's delightful play, the g , L a dy of Lyons," is the great attraction at Drury-lane during the present week. Mrs. Vezin is much more at home in such parts as Pauline than Lady Macbeth, her performance of the proud yet loving beauty of Lyons being one of great artistic excellence. Mr. B. Sullivan's Claude is highly effective, and Mr. Ryder's Colonel Damas is a vigorous and hearty perform ance. The play each time of its representation has drawn crowded houses. On Saturday next the new romantic play of the " D oge o f V en i ce " is to b e brought out, and will be one one of those spectacular works, on a grand scale, which, in accordance with the established practice of the present manager, are produced every autumn at Drury Lane. It is based on Lord Byron's tragedy " Marino Faliero," and ampli fied with additions from the " Marino" of Casimir Delavigne. Beverley, of course, contributes the magic of his pencil, and the illustrative music is taken from the " Marino" of Donizetti, whose book was founded on Delavigne's play. The dramatic adapter is the experienced veteran, Mr. '\V. Ballo Bernard. THE ABYSSINIAN CAPTIVES. The following letter from Mr. Rassam has been forwarded to us for publication : " Magdala, Sept. 7. "My dear Your kind and welcome note of the 2d of March was nearly five months on its way here. Where the delay took place I cannot make out. Our affairs are sadly neglected at Massowall, and it appears that our agent there has been attend ing to any other matter save the wretched Abys' sinian captives. Ever since we were sent as pri soners to this place in July, 1866, I have been send ing regularly a monthly post, and sometimes I despatched extra couriers when I had anything im portant to communicate. You will all be sorry to learn that myself and party are nigh starving, owing to the mismanagement of those who have to do with our affair at Massowah. I have repeatedly written for money, but my messengers are sent back with the same story, that Colonel Merewether had given orders that no money was to be sent to me ex cepting via Matermua. The road between that place and Magdala has been quite blocked up, partly by the rains and partly by the rebels, and there is no more chance of our obtaining money thence than from Timbuctoo. I have warned them over and over again not to trust to that route, but as we have always been successful through the Tigree and Lasta road, I begged that money should be sent to us constantly by that way ; but my advice was not listened to, hence this difficulty. Only God knows what will happen to us in case we do not get any succour from the coast for five or six weeks longer. " The rebellion has now become general all over Abyssinia, the few districts between the Royal camp at Dabrataboor and this place have thrown off their allegiance to King Theodorus, and consequently they have closed the roads against all travellers, and have succeeded so far as to prevent public commu nication from taking place between Dabrataboor and Magdala. For the last four months the Emperor has only communicated three times with this place, and even then he was obliged to employ a servant of one of the native prisoners in order that he might not be recognised. Our Royal friend is now becom ing desperate, and consequently he spares neither male nor female if any of the rebels happen to fall into his hands ; the rebels, on the other hand, imi tate the practice of their late master by butcher ing any person found outside the hedge which is now built outside the Royal camp. I have only been able to communicate with Mr. Flad at Dabra taboor since his return. Every time I tried to send a messenger they were plundered, but the letters they have always managed to save. The carnage which takes place daily in the Royal camp from famine, pestilence, and the sword is quite terrifying. 2,500 men who had intended to run away were butchered like sheep, and 295 chiefs were starved to death, after they had their arms and feet cut off, for the same reason. For two whole days, from morning till evening, nothing was heard but reports of musketry, and at each discharge either the wife, mother, or child of a deserter was killed. Ladies Of noble families were tortured to death, and the poor creatures breathed their last under most frightful agony. Men are now held responsible for the deser tion of their brothers-in-law, sons-in-law,or fathers in-law, as they are expected to know the movements of their marriage relations. Between 40 and 5 0 persons die daily of different diseases. " Some one has told the Emperor that if ho per' sisted in keeping me and my fellow-prisoners in this country England would be compelled to fight hiln• Let them come,' said he, ' and call me a woman if Ido not beat them.' You will all be glad to knout that his Majesty still treats me with consideration and mock friendship, and he never fails to send Inn polite messages, and orders the authorities of this place to be kind to me and to come and see me often. Mr. Flad tells me that in the beginning of last month the Emperor ordered some s words to be presented to deserving officers that showed good service in the field. A sword which was pre' sented to me by his Majesty before my incarceration was brought out with the rest intended for presenta tion, and on seeing it he said to the officer in charge a the arms, 'Take care of that sword, it is the property of Mr.Rassatn, whom I have chained only because I had listened to instigators. I shall bring hi m to gether with them' (my European fellow-prisoners) and release him and give him his property.' He maY keep my sword for the sake of old friendship, but there is no more chance of his letting us out without coercion from without than to fly up to the moon. He sent me a letter the other day wherein he called me a friend and a brother, and assured me the only thing he wished in the world was the friendship Of my Queen and that of myself. The chiefs of the mountain are still as kind to me as ever. I3efore the rains began they enlarged my courtyard, wliic h enabled me to make a nice garden around my house which has been built anew by the chiefs of this for" tress. It is considered the prettiest house there an" the most comfortable. In front of the door I ha! e erected a nice arbour, covered over with tom ato plants. We ha ve h a d a grea t d ea l o f s i c k nes s on th is mountain for the last three mo n ths, from which nearly one-third of the native prisoners have be en e _ carried off. I th a nk G o d no t on ly th a t none a o ur people have been infected by the epidemic, but i 0 has not even touched our quarter. " Our rainy season will be over in ten days, w he v il o we fear the Emperor will begin to make a In o towards this place. If he continues to behave towards me we might have a little quiet, but if Le a begins to bully Inc woe betide us. However, I such a great faith in the mercies of our Pav ell ,:? l Father that I feel sanguine that everything 1‘ yet end well and to the honour of England. " I hope that you are all enjoying perfect 110 chil 1 i and with kind love to your husband and yo ur dren,—l remain, as ever, your affectionate fr ien If.
