" We believe Mr. Courtenay's experience in the treatment of stric ture during the last twenty years has equalled, if, indeed, it has not surpassed, that of any of his contemporaries. It is, therefore, no matter of sin prise that he should enjoy the reputation of being a most dexterous and skilful manipu ator with urethral instruments ; and when it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert that the introduction of instruments through a stricture which had previously been impermeable to them, was the most difficult in the whole range of surgical operations, it must be no slight source of gratification on Mr. Courtenay's part to have achieved the reputation he has in this res,ect ; and for our part, with the knowledge we have of his experience, we know of no man to whose care we would with g. eater confidence entrust the treatment of a severe case of stricture of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

THE UNIV.ERSAL EXHIBITION AT PARIS. REGULATIONS FOR OPENING. The Moniteur contains a programme of the opening of the Universal Exhibition, May 15. The ceremony will take place on that day at one o'clock prociely. His Imperial Highness Prince Napoleon will receive their Majesties at the grand entrance, and conduct them t the throne. The members of the Senate, the Corps Legislatif, and the Council of State, will be present, and occupy places around the throne. The civil and military authorities will also occupy places expressly arranged for their reception. The doors of the Exhibition will be opened at 10 o'clock and closed at 12, to prepare for the reception of their Majesties. Exhibitors and persons possessing season tickets will be admitted, by presenting their passes, at all the doors. To avoid confusion, it will be well to go early. The arrangements are simple and clear, and the officers in charge ate instructed with answers for every description of inquiry. The Moniteur repeats a notice which appeared some time since :—Their Majesties reserve to themselves the power of purchasing any objects in the Exhibition, and refuse to accept any gift from exhibitors.

He was not of opinion that the abolition of that board had resulted ia any detriment to the public ser vice. The harmony and proper feeling which existed amongst all connected with the Admiralty had been pro ductive of great benefit to the public service—but he be lieved as the numbers were increased, difficulties arose which interfered with that cordial co-operation and under standing which had previously subsisted. Lord Seymour—The committee have been informed there were not sufficient surgeons in the Black Sea Fleet. Sir J. Graham replied that he had heard from the naval authorities in the Black Sea that the Black Sea fleet was never short of medical officers at any time. He did not concur with the Duke of Newcastle in thinking that the transport service should be placed under the control and authority, directly, of the Minister at War. Such a proceeding, he thought, would lead to the greatest possible confusion. The committee assembled yesterday at the usual hour. Sir James Graham, M.P., was the first witness ex amined, and in answer to questions from the chairman, said he was First Lord of the Admiralty from the com mencement of the war until the 25th March last. Describe the relation between the First Lord of the Admiralty and the Minister for War.—All the de tails of the naval service are transacted by the Board of Admiralty, without reference to any other department ; but when it was the Queen's pleasure that any particular movement of the fleet or any operation of the fleet should take place it was communicated to the Board of Admiralty officially, by the Secretary of State, and then I considered myself subject to the War Minister. The naval armament was entirely under the control of the Board of Admiralty. Is the First Lord of the Admiralty a co-ordinate part LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 15, 1855. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.-MONDAY. 111-omened reports respecting St. Hubert caused a strong demonstration to be made against him in the course of the morning in the city ; and on mustering at " The Corner," the feeling of hostility was so much increased by the operations of certain eager layers that, after 500 to 20 had been booked three or four times, 30 to 1 went a-begging, and yet no reliable information was to be obtained as to the circumstances of the case. Wild Dayrell was in very great force ; at 6 to 1, 11 to 2, and 5 to 1, many hundreds were invested on him, and be was, unquestionably, the leading favourite at the close. Lord of the Isles was backed at 13 to 2 and 6to 1, De Clare at 6 and .7 to 1, and Rifleman at 6 to 1, but the support which they respectively received was not marked by any particular feature. 12 to 1 was taken to various sums about the Flatterer, and 14 to 1 to some hundreds about Kingstown. 20 and 25 to 1 were laid against Dirk Hatteraick. Bonnie Morn and Grwculus Esuriens were at 50 to 1 each, taken and offered. Out ston at one time advanced from 1,000 to 30 to 25 to 1, but the current price at the finish was 30 to 1. 2,000 to 60 and 750 to 25 were taken about Rylstone. The betting on the Somersetshire Stakes and the Oaks requires no comment.

He was not, however, prepared to blame Admiral Dun (las in the matter, because Engli s h merc h ants h a d com plained that rigid blockades would have the effect of causing them to suspend their trade. Lord Seymour— We have been informed that prior to the sailing of the expedition the Government had no in formation as to the nature of the fortifications at Sebas topol. Does your opinion concur with that ? 4 Sir J. Graham replied, that instead of an opinion he could state a fact. In the last week in June he saw a Crimean authority, who must of course be nameless, at the Admiralty ; and an Admiralty officer who was in attendance took down his statement in writing. His information respect ing the Crimea was very full and substantial. He gave information in reference to the harbours, roads, fortifi cations, and supply of water, and, what was more im portant, he gave an estimate of the military force there, which was that there were 70,000 troops there, 40,000 in garrison at Sebastopol, and 30,000 in various parts of the Crimea. He (Sir J. Graham) forwarded that in formation to Admiral Dundas, who must have got it before the expedition left Varna. Subsequent experience bad proved beyond doubt the accuracy of these statements. More than that, he sent out to Admiral Dundas an engi neer officer who knew the harbour of Sebastopol as well as the master of a Ryde steamer knew Spithead. He had very little doubt, however, that it was extremely difficult to obtain information on the points he had referred to. By Mr. Layard—He entertained a very strong opinion as to the time the expedition was ordered to proceed from Varna to the Crimca. Although the late period of the year at which it moved had been said to be the cause of much of the suffering of the army, he was firmly per suaded that the months of August, September, or Octo ber were proper months for such a purpose. The room was cleared close upon a quarter to 4 o'clock for consultation, and on the re-admission of the public in the course of a few minutes, Mr. Layard put a series of questions to Sir J. Graham relative to the relations subsisting between the ambas sador at Constantinople and Admiral Dundas in the prosecution of the public service, in reply to which he stated that he was not aware that the ambassador failed in his duty in rendering every assistance in his power to Admiral Dundas. The Chairman—Was there any difference between them on any points ? Sir J. Graham—l believe there was. The Chairman—Did that come to your knowledge officially ? Sir J. Graham—lt did not come to my knowledge officially as connected with the Admiralty, but I heard of some misunderstanding betweea them in my position as connected with the Administration. The committee afterwards adjourned until to-morrow. AUSTRALIA. We have received complete files of papers from Melbourne to the 15th of February inclusive.

A Paris letter in the Independancc of Brussels gives the following account of the reasons which determined M. Drouyn de l'Huys to withdraw from the French Cabinet. The fact of its being copied into the Momiteur gives it importance :-- "It wa,Q on the question of the proposition of Austria that the Minister, who has so completely associated him self with the foreign policy of the Emperor, found himself obliged to maintain an opinion different from the resolutions of his Majesty. The propositions of which he recommended the acceptance by France would have had the effect, it appears to him, either of re-esta blishing peace, if it were accepted by Russia, or of securing the immediate and energetic co-operation of Austria in the war, if Russia should refuse it. In a word, Austria, after having come to an understanding with the Western Powers, and having been autho rised to declare their adhesion to her proposition, would have put it in the shape of an ultimatum, which she would have addressed to Russia, with the intima tion that its rejection would be followed by a declara tion of war. This, it must be admitted, would have the advantage of explicitly binding Austria. But ought that advantage to be sought for in the conditions fixed by the propositions of Austria ? The Emperor did not think so. I have not yet received any in- I formation to make me sufficiently acquainted with the conditions and terms of the Austrian propo sition ; but it is certain the English Government decided on rejecting it. The Emperor therefore hart the same motives for refusing it—that is to say, that it did not offer such a peace as would give suffi cient guarantees to the Powers which bad made so many sacrifices to defend and secure European right. His Majesty had, moreover, a desire to m a i n t a i n i n all its integrity and force the alliance with England, and the feeling of that Government on the question being already known, had beyond any doubt a certain weight with him. I cannot, I repeat, express any im was aver e, opinion on the proposition itself ; but, whatever m a y have been the merit of it, there is no doubt th a t M. Drouyn de l'Huys adopted it on conviction and a ft er mature reflection. He did not think that he could re amain l wu connected w c o h w n i l e t t h i h n h u a e e t policy d not participate, be to the which organ of vie ws an d felt that he could not, either usefully for the and he Emperor, or with dignity to himself, continue to serve as a Minister when he could no longer participate in the policy of the Emperor. lam assured that the Emperor did not without regret part with a Minister whose ser vices had given him the highest satisfaction, and I may state as a fact that his Majesty did not accept the resig nation of M. Drouyn de l'Huys without using the most affectionate solicitations to induce him to change his de cision." INSPECTION OF THE NEW METROPOLITAN CATTLE-MAR KET.—The Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exche quer, Sir George Cornewall Lewis, visited the new Metropolitan Cattle-market, at C openhagen-fields on Saturday, accompanied by John Wood, Esq., the chair man of the consolidated committee of the corporation, who was also a member of the commission appointed upon the 23d of November, 1849, "to inquire into the ' state of Smithfield-market, and to report thereon ;" also to " inquire into the state and management of all mar kets in the city of London for the sale of meat." The right hon. gentleman was recaived by Henry Lowman Taylor, Esq., the chairman of the market improvement committee, and J. B. Bunniniz, Esq., the City architect, at the new market-place. The Chancellor of the Ex chequer intimated to the gentlemen connected with the corporation his entire satisfaction at the arrangements which had been made by the corporation "concerning the premises," expressing, at the same time, his surprise at the exceedingly prompt manner in which the whole of the works had been carried out. There can be now no longer any doubt but that the first market day for the sale of cattle, in the new Metropolitan Cattle-mar ket, will be on F r id ay, the Ist of June. The inaugura ion will take place a few days earlier. of the board, or, like the Master-General of the Ordnance, a superior officer with power to overrule the decision of the board ?-a-He has no power whatever to over rule the decisions of the board. He presides at the board, and the practice is, on documents being read, for the First Lord presiding to give his opinion on the matters submitted for consideration, which, if the mem bers present receive in silence, is noted by the secretary as being assented to ; but should any member dissent, he has an opportunity of stating it. The First Lord of the Admiralty was an integral part of the board. If the majority of the board was against the First Lord's opinion, would the majority govern ? I can only answer that question by stating that I should have acted on the advice of Lord Spencer to me some years since, .441aad made up his mind, the Avant of two of the board refusing him Weir to his request, that one of the admirals should strike his flag, he would have dissolved the board ; but I have never found any differ ence of opinion existing with the members of the board, but on the contrary, they were always most willing to coincide with my views. He had the control of the transport service until the transport board was established. Previous to that there were orders andinstructions pouring into the Admiralty respecting the transport service from seven different de partments. The change had not altogether taken place before he left office, but the concentration of organisa tion had commenced. In November the requisitions from the Treasury and from the Horse Guards had ceased and came from the Secretary of State for War. The Ordnance, however, continued to send theirs to the Ad miralty, and the medical requisitions from the Secretary at War until Mr. S. Herbert ceased to hold office, and he remained at the Admiralty. Having mentioned to the committee the large powers vested in the First Lord of tha Admiralty, he held him responsible for anything that might occur. When the expedition was first pro• posed, we had three iron steam-ships of war capable of carrying two thousand men, and as the requisitions came in for transports, they were taken up in the home market, and a number of steamers taken up, but the demand being greater than the supply he bad recourse to sailing vessels until there was a continuous flow of vessels from this country to the seat of war. The transports in the Black Sea wa , under the command and authority of the Commander in- Chief, and generally throughout his command accord ing to the fleet regulations, apart from all spe- cial instructions. Where there were combined mili tary and naval command the transports were moved under their joint authority. Admiral Boxer was sent out specially to superintend the transport service within the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus, but subject always to the control of the admiral in command. He appointed Admiral Boxer from the manner in which he was men- tioned to him about 30 years since by Sir Thomas Hardy as being the best seaman he knew. Admiral Boxer has more than justified the opinion so formed, of him. He (Sir James) selected him from the list, and much surprised him by giving him an appointment. Admiral Boxer's instructions, on the Bth March, 1854, informed him that he received his appointment subject to orders he might from time to time receive from the Lords of the Admiralty, or Vice-Admiral Dundas, Commander of her Majesty's fleet in the Black Sea and he Mediterranean. Examination of Sir James Graham continued—On the 13th April instructions were given to Admiral Boxer to keep up a constant correspondence with Vice- Admiral Dundas, and to follow his directions. On the 22d May Admiral Boxer's command was limited to the end of the Dardanelles and the East entrance of the Bosphorus into the Black Sea. The Admiralty looked to Vice-Admiral Dundas as responsible for the transport service, subject to the limitation he had stated. Vice- Admiral Dundas had equal power in the harbour of Balaklava and the transports there, and was held re sponsible for everything in the Black Sea. He (Sir James) appointed Captain Christie, who had command of the transports at Balaklava. Captain Christie had no power or authority in the harbour of Balaklava ; he was almost invariably on board ship outside the harbour. All he had heard of Captain Christie induced him to speak well of him, except in three particulars—one with reference to the loss of the Prince, for which he will he tried by court-martial, and he believed he was now a broken-hearted man. Balaklava harbour was more like a ditch than a harbour, and was quite incapable of accommodating the immense number of vessels that had to be discharged. Captain Christie bad no authority in the harbour of Balaklava, as he had already stated, but he did all he could to induce the harbour master to receive the Prince inside the harbour. He did not think Captain Christie responsible for the loss of that vessel. The admission or refusal of admis sion of that ship into the harbour rested with the senior naval officer in command of the harbour, and not Cap tain Christie, but he had the power of ordering her out to sea. The Prince, however, being such a long ship, so near the shore, and such a swell running he thought pro bably it was impossible for Captain Christieto have done so. Sir Edmund Lyons commanded in the harbour of Balaklava before the evening of the attack of the fleets on the forts, then Captain Dacre, and after that Captain Keith and Commander Ford, until Admiral Boxer went up from the Bosphorus. He did not remove Admiral Boxer from the Bosphorus to Balaklava in con sequence of any complaint, but from his duties there swelling into greater importance than he at first contemplated. Some censure had been cast on Admiral Boxer, but he (Sir James) took the re sponsibility on himself, at not having adopted at the time his suggestion, and appointed a receiving-ship at Constantinople ; it was, however, subsequently done. If Admiral Dundas had been dissatisfied with Admiral Boxer he could not say if he could have discharged him. . . The question had never arisen, but he had the power to deal with all officers under him. The defective state of the transport service, or the delays in the Crimea, had never been notified to him officially by any naval or military authority. He was not aware of the transport service being defective in its arrangements within the Black Sea. Sir James then proceeded to give his op nion on the advantage of steamers used as transports, and denied the assertion that 1,000,0001. had been lost to the country, in the manner in which the transport service bad been conducted, the assertion being based, as he said, on two fallacies. About the loading of the transports he bad nothing to add to the evidence already given by Captain Milne. The Admiralty took up a cer tain number of ships for the Commissariat, and Lord Raglan took up others, from time to time, as he re quired them. The number was limited, and the base of operations was changed when the Russian army re treated from Silistria, and he believed it impossible for the Admiralty tohavedone more, or procured more trans ports than they had from that time to August, when the expedition to the Crimea was decided on. In the course of the year the army moved 60,000 British soldiers and 6,000 horses from this country to the Crimea, a distance of 3,000 miles,from 25, 000 to 30,000 French, and 45,000 Turks. Simultaneously with the dif ficulty experienced in providing transports for the Crimea, the Admiralty moved 12,000 French to the Baltic, moving in the whole somewhere about 150,000 men. Then, again, they had to supply provisions and stores, and they were engaged weekly in conveying about 1,250,0001b5. of biscuit, 50,000 gallons of rum, 250,0001b5. of salt meat, and about 10,000 tons of coal, &c., &c. He was not aware of having received a letter from Dr. A. Smith in the course of last summer, asking for ves sels for the conveyance of patients, and being used as hospitals. The question was never brought officially before his notice, but he had several conversations with the military authorities respecting it, and although he was averse to the establishment of naval hospitals, the number of the sick becoming greater and the urgency of the service requiring them, he had two established. The hon. baronet real a number of documents issued by the Admiralty, some public and some of a private character —the latter being subject to be made public documents at any time by the first Lord—wherein instructions were given. The responsibility of not providing sufficient means for the landing of the sick at Scutari rested with the officer in command of the Bosphorus, subject to the communications he had made on the sub ject to the Commander-in• Chief of the fleet. Sir James read copies of instructions sent to Admiral Dundas and also to Adm ired Lyons,requesting - them to make every ar rangement necessary, and that they would be held respon sible for'what occurred under their several commands. In reference to the warm clothing, Sir James Graham went through a catalogue of the articles transmitted by the Prince to the Crimea ; and added, that had not that vessel unfortunately been lost nothing would have been heard of the urgency of the want of warm clothing. In reply t 0 Lord Seymour, the right hon. baronet went on to state, that when formerly at the Admiralty ARRIVALS AT BATH.

THE NATIONALITY OF POLAND AND HUNGARY. ( From the Morning Post.) PARIS, Sunday.—lt must be pretty evident to the Govern. ments of France and England that the almost hostile attitude of Austria and Prussia will impose on the allies a new policy. They must turn to the map of Europe and choose new friends to combat new enemies. Our main object is to erect a per manent barrier against Russian aggression, and thus prevent, it possible, the recurrence of war with which an ambitious Czar may think proper to disturb the peace of Europe. Po land at once presents the most promising ground for resisting the advance of Russia. France and England only allowed the final division of that kingdom, because they were not pre pared to go to war. Austria and Prussia having profited by the spoils, of course could not be expected to com bat Russian ambition in that quarter, or to seek to prevent the occupation of Warsaw in September, 1831. Since this period both countries have received the exiled Poles, and continued to express the utmost sympathy in their cause. But no political event, or great war, offered opportunity for carrying that sympathy beyond offering the means of subsistence during exile. It was not the object of the Governments of France and England, when they com menced war with Russia, to engage the whole of Europe in the struggle ; hence they sought a German alliance, hoping that such a demonstration would convince the Government of St. Petersburg that Europe would impose certain limits to the ambition of the great Northern Power. In both instances they have failed—the Austrian alliance has dwindled down to the ugly proportions of an armed neutrality, and Russia is more insolent and uncompromising now than when first her armies were beaten out of the Principalities, and when her fleets first skulked behind the stone walls of Cronstadt and Sebastopol. _ _ _ It is by arms, then, alone that wo can hope for an Euro pean peace ; and England and France left with all the respon sibility of the great war, will probably be compelled to address the nationality of Poland, and even Hungary, Hitherto Austria alone has gained by our struggle, and yet she will not assist us. The Sovereigns of Germany aro acting in direct opposition to the will and wish of the people. Austria has played us false ; and, therefore, we can have no hesitation, if pushed to the extreme, in revenging her duplicity. There are evident signs here, in Paris, of coming events ; and if Austria does not come forward and fulfil her treaty engagements, Francis Joseph may live to repent his hesi tation. As far as the King of Prussia is concerned, he is nothing more than a sort of Lord-Lieutenant of Russia, living at Berlin. He may govern Prussia, but he is no longer the King of the people. France and England have ample material for revising the map of Europe, and they are probably bent on using the means in their hands. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. A steamer will leave Woolwich and Sheerness on or about the 20th of this month for the Baltic fleet, and another steamer at the end of the month, by which parcels will be conveyed for the fleet, and they will also carry mails. The following general order has been issued from the Horse Guards respecting the distribution of medals for service in the Crimea:—" Upon the occasion of her Majesty presenting medals to a portion of the officers and soldiers entitled to them for service in the Crimea, as it will not be possible to give no tice to every officer who may be on leave of absence, the General Commanding-in-Chief requests that those officers so situated, who may be entitled to medals, and who may wish to witness the ceremony, will make application to that effect to the Adjutant-General. Those officers who, from wounds or illness, may be prevented from attending aro requested to send their addresses to the Ad jutant-General, in order that their medals may bo forwarded to them without delay. All officers are to appear in review order, and except those on duty with theltroops, are to be dismounted. Officers of the army, marines, militia, yeomanry, &c., who may attend the parade on the 18th inst., in uniform, are to be admitted between the double rows of sentries." The Surly, Growler, Flamer, Hardy, Havoc, and Firm are the names of - the mortar vessels towed to Spithead on Sunday by the Odin and Rosamond, and the difficulties and dangers experienced in getting them along, we believe, have prompted Captain Willcox to recommend that their mortars be sent out to the scene of the future operations in more trustworthy bot toms ; another report is, as it will be dangerous to trust them on so long a voyage as that to Sebastopol, they will be pressed for service in the Baltic ! They were inspected yes terday by Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, Commander in-Chief of Portsmouth, and are attracting much gene ral attention in the port, being all newly-arranged vessels upon the plan so successfully projected by Captain Julius Roberts, R.M.A. The Clinker and Jasper steam gun-boats adjusted their compasses in Portsmouth harbour yesterday, and are ready to join the flotilla at Spithead to-day. According to present arrangements, about 9,000 troops will occupy the ground at the opening of the camp at Aldershott ; and it is stated that her Majesty, Prince Albert, the Duke of Cambridge, Lord Hardinge, and the Earl of Cardigan will be present on the occasion. It is un derstood that the following regiments of cavalry, infantry, and militia will be the first troops to occupy the ground ; these will be relieved occasionally, until the whole force quartered in England has received a month's instruction in field evolutions—viz., 2d Regiment of Life Guards, from Hyde Park Barracks ; 6th Dragoon Guards, Carbi neers, from Hounslow (this regiment will be relieved by the 7th Hussars, from York, and will remain in camp until ready to embark for the seat of war); detachments from the cavalry depots at Maidstone and Brighton, consisting of men be longing to the 9th Lancers, 10th Hussars, 12th Lancers, 13th Light Dragoons, 14th ditto, and 17th Lancers. The in fantry will consist of detachments of the Ist and 2d battalions of the Grenadier Guards, 2d battalion of the Coldstream Guards, and 2d battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards - 51st (King's) Light Infantry, from Manchester ; 80th Foot, from Portsmouth ; two companies of the 94th ditto, from Windsor ; the newly-raised 3d battalion of the Rifle Brigade, from Portsmouth ; and detachments from the provisional battalions and depot companies at Park hurst, Winchester, and Chatham. Militia Regiments— Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Essex Rifles, West Kent, Ist or East Middlesex, 2d ditto Westminster, and sth ditto Elthorne Regiment, Tower Hamlets King's Own Light Infantry, and Tower Hamlets Queen's Own ' Light Infantry, and Ist, 2d, and 3d Regiments of Surrey Militia. These will give in round numbers, 1,100 cavalry, 2,500 Guards and infantry of the line, and about 4,800 mili tia, which, added to 500 artillery and 150 Sappers and Miners, will constitute a force exceeding 9,000 men. It is intended to concentrate the Foreign Legion enlisted in British America at Shorneliffe, where also a large number of Swiss volunteers will be encamped. The Poles and Germans will be quartered and disciplined at Heligo!and. APPOINTMENTS.

The statement of an insurrection of the peasan try in the Ukraine is one of great interest, and the accounts hitherto given are very various. The Czos (a Polish paper published in Cracow) gives the following aecount as the result of its special inquiries : "Carriers (probably drivers of arabas) who were return ing from the Crimea through Podolia, narrated in the neighbourhood of Mohilew that the French, although they were fighting with the Russian troops, were by no means ill-disposed to the Russian people, and wanted to do away with all forced labour (villain socage). On this a deacon (a Pope not yet in full orders), in the village of Moguslau, near Mohilew, having observed how little effect the appeal of the Russian Synod in St. Petersburg had had in rousing the people in the provinces of Irolhynia, Podolia, and the Ukraine (formerly Polish) to take up arms for its faith and its co-reli gionists in Turkey, made the peasants believe that the Synod bad, in fact, addressed another appeal to the people, in which the abrogation of the corvee was proclaimed, and the fee-simple of the lands conferred on the peasants who cultivated them. lie assured them that the great men who stood nearest the Emperor had caused this address to be suppressed, but that he had a copy of it. This document, of his own concoction, he read to the peasants that were already excited by the French news from the Crimea. They proceeded at once to their Pope, and demanded to have the genuine address of the Synod published, and were of course informed there was no other than the one already made known. In a number of villages the excited peasantry began to maltreat their Popes, and assembled together tumultuously, armed with scythes and pitchforks ; but in no case were any threatening demonstrations made against the land proprietors, the lords of the manors. With the assistance of military, acting energetically up to the very sharp orders they had, the disturbance was quieted-40 of the rioters lost their lives, and. about 200 of the more prominent were taken prisoners and sent to Siberia—the less prominent got off with a pla - itiful dose of knout. The villages in question remain oc , Jupied by soldiery, and the whole state of feeling in Lesser Rus,ia is described as sultry and threatenin g." The Pq cussische Correspondenz favours us with the following statement, which flavours strongly of official inspiration : "The disturbance vi-al confined to the estates of the Po lish Counrtßranicki, and some o fth e ne i g hb our i ng d oma i ns , and is principally traceable to the hatred of the peasants to some of the lords of the manors. The people had misunder stood the recent manifesto of the Emperor; they rose en masse for the purpose of entering the ranks of the Militia, declaring they would rather serve the Emperor as soldiers than continue to serve their lords. The movement caused the greatest apprehension among the landed proprietors of those parts, whose religion, language, and race differ from those of the people. As no conciliatory and pacific means availed to bring back the misguided people to their work, military force was obliged to be called in, if a repeti tion of see nes that took place not so long back in Galicia was to be prevented. This proves that they are perfectly in error NNho, in the above-mentioned disturbances, re cognise a .Polish rising against Russian dominion." The Gesterreichische Zeitung has another version, different from any as yet given, viz., that a large number o f the noble proprietors of land, to in demnify- themselves for the sacrifices thrust upon them by - the Government under the name of war taxes an 4 " voluntary contributions," had laid un usually heavy burdens on their serfs, and required of them oxcessive services ; in consequence of this oppression, the otherwise inexhaustible patience of the la.i.ter had failed them. The appeal of the Government to the people to co-operate in the de fence of the country, and to flock to the support of their standard and the cross, afforded them a welcome opportunity of escaping from their oppres sors ; to. this was added a very sensible dearth of salt, which raised their excitement to the highest. The peasantry left their villages, and repaired in troops to the towns, where they demanded to be admitted into the militia, in order that they might "serve the Czar and get salt to eat." Under the twofold pretence of love to their country and to salt they strove to free themselves from their feudal shackles, but the authorities refused to enrol anybody that did not produce a written permission to that effect from his lord ; all those unprovided with such a document were sent back to their homes - under military escort and admonished. This version, however, concludes like the first— In spite of every trouble and precaution the au thoriti.es have not succeeded in quieting the ex citemeat in the Ukraine." THE FOREIGN LEGION. HELIGOLAND, May B.—For the present the Gar man Brigade of the Foreign Legion will consist of 5,000 men, who will be com man d e d by C o l one l von S tutterheim, a nobleman of Brunswick, and an officer of proved courage, talents, and experience. A letter from Hamburg, dated May 9, in the Patrie, professing to speak on goo d au th or i ty, says the island of Heligoland has been definitively chosen. by the English Government as a recruiting depot for the Foreign Legion. Several English officera, among whom is a paymster, have arrived there. Recruiting was expected to begin on May 15. Great advantages are offered to recruits—a bounty of 61., a good pension to invalids, and the same rights and privileges as the English soldier. At the expiration of their term of service the men who may desire it will be transported gratuitously either to their own country or to America, and will receive a gratuity of a year's pay. CONTINUED ERUPTION OP VESUVIUS. A letter from Naples, dated May 5, says : " Viewed from a distance, the fiery mountain presents somewhat the same appearance as on the occasion of former eruptions—that is, volumes of smoke ever vary ing in form and tint, issue from the mountain, and darken the bright sky above. Occasionally huge red-hot stones are thrown up, and at night a red glare tints the huge volume of smoke, producing a grand effect. Bat on the present occasion the lava streams from the ex hausted and hitherto long-tranquil Somma, which is the detached portion, almost co-equal in height with the cir cular old cone, from whence all the modern eruptions have issued. " The King and the Royal Family have visit©d the eruption, and hundreds of persons ascend the mountain night and day. There appear to be two or three streams of lava slowly creeping on from apertures which vomit fire and smoke continually—ever changing in aspect, according to the violence of the subterraneous action. But it is the capricious forms which the smoke assumes that most amuses the spectator, whilst lighted up by the reflected red of the fire. " The eruption will, in all probability, last some days, until, as on former occasions, the accumulated volcanic action of the mountain has exhausted itself." ATTEMPTED REVOLUTION AT SAINT DOMINGO. __---0,--- St. flamingo We learned by the last West Indian mail t hat the English commodore had left Jamaica fo r l steamer from the Uni ted States we ave re. the mail on account of the unsettle d state of things there. By s Times, which supplies a state ceived the S. Thom as ment of the facts— ,. A body of men, comprising about one hundred, col lected in a large building within the city on the night of Sunday, the 25th ult., and were awaiting the gathering l e r w ould illin of a like number ; their purpose was to attack the senti nels at the different gates, surprise the guards, whom they of the plot hoped to subdue, and then raise the cry of .' Viva Buen a - Ventura Baez!' which they believed, on the cit b r „ surrounded the awakened, would have been echoed everywhery however, seem that there was a traitor in the c e p.. mp, r3' ; the inmatec, communicated to the commandant the secrets and towards midnight a body of soldiery who escape from tbe house and fired a volley of musket al. tn sti prison ar ya captures tautnhr answer those were w e fh r o e or windows frustrated, and doors,attempted in to e i I T la their tlitth:ap made, and the parties are now ,their acts.

During the time lost in searching the ruins one part of the premises was in such a dangerous condition that it was feared it would topple over and kill those engaged in endeavouring to save life ; but Mr. Coxhead, the builder, who had been engaged on the premises, procured a number of ropes, and so tied it as to allay all fears of any further extension of mischief. Up to 9 o'clock last night it was found i•rpracticablo to turn over the whole of the ruins on account of the great weight of timber, iron, and millstones lying there, and it will be impossible to tell at present with certainty whether any other workman may not be under the ruins and crushed to death. The total number of sufferers taken to St. Thomas's Host pital was 17, twelve of whom had their wounds dressed and were able to be removed home, but the other five remain in a very dangerous state, as does also John Regan, who is still in Guy's Hospital. C __~ FALL OF THE ATLAS IRONWORKS. 'NW Yesterday afternoon the inhabitants of the Borough-road and Newington-causeway were greatly alarmed by a most calamitous occurrence, in which nearly 20 persons were se riously, if not fatally injured, and a vast amount of property destroyed, which, it is feared, will prevent a very important contract with the Government from being finished at the spe cified time—viz., shells for the Crimea. The premises in which the disaster took place belonged to the Atlas Ironwork Company; and were situate immediately facing the racket-ground of the Queen's Prison, in the Borough-road, and stretched as far as the back of the houses 'in Newington-causeway, The place was originally built for carpenters' workshops, and was four floors high, being built of timber, covered with heavy sheets of slate, the support of the roof being long horizontal girders, braced together. ph i , , uprights, it appeared, were too weak for the weight of metal gforthe engineeri ng p trad e, oses purposes required in such premises or as a foundry, al for which they were originally intended. mis hou e g s h as surilci u e s n e l d ly in strong The building which has fallen was, p robabl y , 90 f eet long and nearly 70 feet high ; the lower flo or b ein g used as the drilling and casting houses, the drying shops were on the next floor, over which were the carpenters' shops, and on the floor above were deposited all kinds of iron work, the whole being of great weight. from Shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon , t he various workmen, numbering upwards of 100, had returne d dinner, and had taken their respective places at their lathes, drums, and benches, when, of a sudden, some persons, who were in the top part, had their attention directed to one of the sides rocking to and fro. They raised an imme diate alarm, and at once made an attempt to gain the street. Others in the lower floor, also seeing the building move, made an att empt to leave, and fortunately several were suc cessful, but before the whole number could get out, the roof fell in, and in an instant afterwards the top floor fell, and the lower floors, being pressed by the additional weight thrown upon them, also dropped to the ground. As soon as th e d ust had in some measure cleared away, the exact amount of th e injury and the cause became apparent; and the cries which proceeded from the ruins proved that several persons were imbedded. Messengers were despatched to the Stones-end Police-sta tion for the aid of a strong muster of police, and Inspectors Moore and M'lntosh, w i th nearly 100 officers, repaired to the scene, and found men almost in a state of frenzy, rushing about, and b egg i ng the officers to allow them to assist in rescuing th e l ess fortunateworkmen who were under the ruins. The request was, of course, readily granted, and the police assisted th e men in digging the poor fellows out. The neighbours also sh owe d every willingna assist ing in getting the rubbish away, an d , after somes in time, two men were got out by Mr. Day, of the Eight Bells Tavern, in Cross-street, Blackfriars-road, who removed them in a cab, and they were driven off to St. Thomas's Hospital. The state of the premises having been made known to the authorities of the hospital, and the great number of persons who were buried alive in the ruins, the following medical gen tlemen connected with the institution proceeded to the scene in order to render immediate assistance as the men were got out :—Messrs. Penberthe, Wootton, Fowler, Hodges, Elwin, Gratham, Warwick, Crofts, and Carpenter. These gentlemen attended the sufferers as they were extricated, while Mr. Le Gros Clark and Mr. Croft, the chief surgeons in attendance, waited at the hospital to attend to their injuries. Several persons were, by dint of great exertion, removed from the rubbish ; and they were found to be very badly cut and injured by the fall of timber and ironwork ; two were taken to the surgery of Mr. Odling in high-street, Borough, and Mr. Charles Smith, his assistant, strapped up their wounds. One man had received a contused wound at the back of the head and the other had his leg severely cut. Tackling having been obtained, and the assistance of some 200 men, the stones, after about two hours, were raised, and a man liberated. He was taken to St. Thomas's Hospital, but he is in a very dangerous condition. Another man, named Joseph Giles, was also extricated after much time and trouble, with his skull fearfully fracture& A man named James Holden was next brought from the ruins, and was taken by the police to St. Thomas's Hospital. Chas. Pryer was likewise got out, with his leg fractured by a mill stone falling on it, and he was also removed to the same institution. Another man, whose name could not be ascer tained, owing to his being perfectly insensible, was removed to the hospital, but not the least hopes can be entertained of his recovery. A man named John Regan was extricated from the broken timber and forthwith removed to Guy's Hospital. COUNTRY VARBETS. CHELMSFORD—MAT 11.
