" 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 sui prise that he should enjoy the reputation of being a most dexterous and skilful manipn' 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. uourtenay'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 greater confidence entrust the treatment of a severe case of stricture of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

The first of the flower shows of this society, which took place yesterday in the inner circle of the Regent's park, was well attended, though not to the extent that would probably have been the case had the weather been more settled. As the afternoon advanced it grew very cold, and indications of rain between five and six drove many of the ladies into the tents, though fortunately without any other immediate occasion than that arising from the suspicious look of an accumulation of heavy sombre clouds. Earlier in the day the promenade wore a very splendid aspect, for the sun was then shining, the company numerous, and the dresses gay. The show was confined to the la,rge-tented enclosure in the rear of the conservatory, and, notwithstanding the adverse circumstance of the season, and the re tardations consequent thereon, the floral displays were scarcely inferior to those' of former years. Her Majesty and Prince Albert, accompanied by the Prince of Saxe Coburg, and the Princess Hohenlohe Lan genburg, honoured the gardens with their presence in th e course of the day. T he Royal party also included the Prince of ales and Prince Alfred, the Maharajah W Dhuleep-Singh, the Duchess and Princess Mary of Cam bridge, attended by the Countess of Gainsborough and Miss Stanley, Ladies in Waiting, General Buckley, and Sir John Login.

THE EASTERN PAPERS. The papers relating to the Conference at Vienna on the Eastern question have been presented to Parliament. From their great length we cannot find room for the whole. The following is a trans lation of the final Protocol (No. 14). It relates to the proceedings at Vienna on the 26th ult. : (Translation.) Present : For Austria.—Count Buol-Schauenstein and Baron Prokesch-Osten. For France.—M. Drouyn de l'Huys and Baron de Bourquency. For Great Britain.—The Earl of Westmoreland. For Russia.—Prince Gortschakoff and M. de Titoff. For Turkey.—Aali Pacha and Ariff Effendi. Count Buol opens' the meeting by saying that he in vited the members of the Conference to assemble at the request of the Russian plenipotentiaries, who declared that they have communications to make. Prince Gortschakoff wishes to establish the fact that it was the Russian plenipotentiaries who, in the twelfth Conference, recorded in the proctocol the last proposi tion tending to the solution of the third principle, and that it is again they who now submit new plans with the same object. Before developing them, he thinks it his duty to recur to an assertion of the French Minister for Foreign Affairs, recorded in the twelfth proctocol, stating " that Russia is unwilling to give the Ottoman empire any sort of guarantee, and that as for the one contained in Art. 1, and adopted in the eleventh Conference, Russia reduces it to a mere chimera, since even in case a Turkish pro vince were invaded by one of the contracting powers Russia, according to the interpretation of Prince Gorts chakoff, will confine herself to the exercise of her good offices." He remarked that the Russian plenipotentiaries have, in common with the other members of the Conference, sanctioned the principle of making the Sublime Porte participate in the advantages of the European concert, and of placing her under the safeguard of the public law of Europe. And, lastly, they have engaged, in the name of their court, to respect the independence and territorial integrity of the Ottoman empire: Can these engagements be characterised as chimeras ? One of the reasons for which he declined an active territorial gua rantee of the Ottoman Empire arises from the difficulty of precisely defining its limits. The territorial guarantee once stipulated would it not be necessary to extend it to the most distant points, as, for instance, Tunis and Aden, and to make any attack directed against either of those territories by one of the contracting powers a cases belli? He declines giving so extended a mean ing to the engagement he takes, on the plea that the blood of Russia belongs to Russia alone. This does not mean, however, that Russia will confine herself exclusively to good offices. The independ ence of the Sublime Porte is not only the interest of Europe, but also that of Russia. If it were menaced Russia would not be the last to defend it, but she re serves to herself the right of judging when the case oc curs, whether or not it be necessary to employ her ma terial resources. Adverting to the special object of to-day's conference, he states that the plan proposed by the Russian plenipo tentiary had for its object not only to resolve the diffi culties of the present, but also to surround the indepen dence of the Porte with guarantees for the future ; how ever, that as this plan had been declined, especially on account of its resting on a principle contrary to a sove reign right of the Porte, the maintenance of which she deems necessary fur her independence, he sought the so lution on a different plan. He reeds the articles 1 and 2, of which copy is hereto annexed, the one giving a new confirmation to the principle of closing the Straits ; the other, leaving the Sublime Porte herself supreme judge of the cases in which the interest of her security would require exceptions to that principle, and in which she should deem it requisite to summon, according to cir cumstances, either the fleets of the Western Powers, oil that of Russia. In answer to Prince Gortschakoff, M. Drouyn de l'Huys maintains the words quoted by the former. He again states, that France engages to respect not only the independence and territorial integrity of the Otto man empire, but also to enforce their observance ; whereas Russia declines contracting this second engage ment. As for the Regency of Tunis, to which Prince Gortschakoff has alluded, he, for his own part, finds no difficulty in extending to that country the engagement to which he is ready to subscribe. With reference to the new propositions of the Russian plenipotentiaries, he has already declared in the last Conference that his instructions were exhausted, since Russia had rejected the limitation in every form what soever. He applies the same declaration to the present propositions. With this reserve, he observed that these propositions tend so little to the cessation of Russian preponderance in the Black Sea, that they even provide for the contingency of the preponderating fleet becom ing hostile. Baron Bourqueney entirely concurred, in every point, in the opinion of M. Drouyn de l'Fluys. Lord Westmoreland recurs to the declaration made by Lord J. Russell in the last Conference, to the effect that the instructions of the plenipotentiaries of Great Britain were exhausted. With regard to the establishment of Aden, of which mention had been made, he states that his Government has in no way violated their treaties with the Sublime Porte concerning it. Prince Gortschakoff answered, that in speaking of Aden, be bad no intention of making recrimination with regard to the past, but only to instance a hypothetical case, calculated to show the extreme consequences to which the territorial guarantee of the Ottoman Empire would, in certain cases, lead. M. de Titoff adds to the statement of his colleague the expression of his hope that the Conference will acknow ledge that the obstacles to an understanding do not ema nate from the plenipotentiaries of Russia, who, far from confining themselves to any exclusive system, now pro pose a plan on a new basis, while the plenipotentiaries of France and Great Britain declare that their instructions are exhausted. Aali Pacha and Aariff Effendi state that their instruc tions neither admit of their giving their adhesion to the propositions of the Russian plenipotentiaries, nor of their giving an opinion in this matter, and that they find themselves in precisely the same situation as the pleni potentiaries of the allied powers. Count Buol addresses hinself to the new Russian pro posal. He sees with satisfaction that in Article 1 the principle of closing had been substituted for that of opening, which had previously been proposed. He thinks Article 2, which reserves for the Sultan the power of eventually calling to his assistance foreign fleets, and of opening the Straits as an exception, is susceptible of a practical application. The proposition appears to him to admit of discussion ; it contains elements of which teustria will endeavour to avail herself for an under standing ; but in the rough state in which it still is he cannot consider it as a solution, nor even as a basis for solution. Baron Prokesch says that since there is a disparity in the respective positions of the powers, it will be difficult to carry out the principle of reciprocity on which Article 2 is based. Nobody will suspect Austria of wishing to impair the independence or the territorial integrity of Turkey. When the ma ritime powers, in concert with Russia, agreed. to the emancipation of Greece, they derived no territorial aggrandisement from it. On the other hand, Russia, in a series of wars with the Ottoman empire during a cen tury, deprived her of province after province. The course pursued by her in 1853 was judged by the powers who signed the protocols as pregnant with imminent danger to the Sublime Porte and to Europe. Against these dangers they are at present endeavouring to provide. Their respective positions not being equal, it is not for Russia to seek guarantees ; she is not in want of them, either for herself, for she finds them in her own power, or for the Sublime Porte, who does not require any on her side ; but it is right that the allied powers should ask Russia for guarantees in the interest of the Porte, and against the recurrence of the dangers which have been the cause of such serious disturbance and of such enormous sacrifice to Europe. In a practical point of view, be thinks that the Rus siae fleet, in order eventually to give effectual assistance to the Sublime Porte, must possess considerable strength. Article 2 would, therefore, tend to perpetuate a danger which it is our object to put an end to. Prince Gortschakoff, in answer to the Austrian pleni potentiaries, states that the project now proposed is more than a mere sketch, that it is equivalent to a real basis; that this project does not merely tend to the solution of the present complication, but it also contains provisions for the future, and that its execution will put an end to Russian preponderance in the Black Sea, while surround ing the existence of Turkey with new guarantees. Art. 2 does not absolutely require reciprocity ; it acknowledges the independence of the Sublime Porte in constituting her sole judge of the dangers which could threaten her, and in leaving to her the most entire liberty of choice re garding those whom she would wish to call upon in order to remove these dangers. The power reserved for the Sultan of calling in the help of Russia, if he should think proper, does not necessitate a priori her keeping a pre ponderating naval force in the Black Sea. Moreover, the plenipotentiaries of Russia, in proposing, in the first instance, the " mare apertum," and afterwards the " mare clausurn," think that they have furnished irre fragable proof of their sincere desire to facilitate a gene ral understanding. Count Buol observes, that when he attached to the Russian project no other value than that of a sketch, he was actuated by the consideration that this project pro poses only the means of putting an end to the naval pre ponderance of Russia when it should already have reached the proportions of an intolerable danger, but tends in no way to make it cease in a permanent man ner and in the ordinary state of things. Prince Gortschakoff answers, that combined as it was with the principles to which he subscribed, and which tend to place the Sublime Porte under the protection of the public law of Europe, and to respect its indepen dence and its territorial integrity, his project seems to him to possess the value of a complete work. Drouyn de l'Huys states that the solution which France would wish to see effected would have been cal culated to obviate the danger, from whatever side it might arise. At present the only question is, to seek guarantees against the dangers which menace Turkey on the side of Russia. It is not enough to devise means eventually to put an end to the' conflict when it has already broken out ; it is necessary to remove the possi bility of a conflict, since every conflict disturbs Europe. The new Russian project, allowing the inequality of forces in the Black Sea to remain, only assures Europe with respect to the issue of the misunderstandings which may arise. With the object of obviating the possibility of this, France has proposed an engagement to ensure respect for the territorial integrity of Turkey. This en gagement, to which Russia refuses its assent, was a gua rantee for the Sublime Porte more important than the help which is prospectively offered to her ; for if the Russian fleet is powerful, the forces to be opposed to it will be even more considerable, and if it be weak, the help it will be able to bring will not be effective. Prince Gortschakoff states that .he counterpoise to the Russian preponderance would be contained in the power of the Sultan to call to his assistance foreign fleets, and that the most solid guarantee for the territorial in tegrity and independence of Turkey is contained in its admission into the European system ' • that, on the other hand, the existence of a formid a bl e Russian fleet in the Black Sea is, in his eyes, a condition essential both to the balance of power in Europe, and to the indepen dence of the Porte. However, he takes cognisance of the opinion expressed by the Austrian: Minister for Fo reign Affairs on the new Russian proposition, expressing the hope that the plenipotentiaries of France and Great Britain, whose instructions he much regretted to find did not permit of their taking part in the discussion, will submit it to their courts, and he.dO l os not doubt that the Ottoman plenipotentiaries would , too well appreciate its importance and its advantaiesl not immediately to ask the Sublime Porte for instructions on this subject. M. Drouyn de l'Huys agrees with Count Buol that the Russian project is not a basis, and that it contains at most an element, inasmuch as the principle of closing is preferable to that of opening. Such as it is his instruc tions do not allow him to take part in the discussions, neither will he consent to take it to Paris. ,Baron Bourqueney states that the position is not modi fied by the new propositions, and wishes it to be under stood that the silen ce w hi c h they voluntarily impose upon themselves should not be taken for adhesion. M. de Titoff remarks that it appeared to be forgotten that the third guarantee had for its object to put an end to the maritime preponderance of Russia in the Black Sria, strengthening at once the independence and the . power of self-government of the Porte. This double ob wet seems to him better secured by the Russian project than by the principle of limitation maintained by the opposite party, so that Russia, if she had the ambitious pli,r.ns which are imputed to her, would even have reason to'prefer a certain limitation, resulting practically from the state of things, to a combination which opens the Black Sea to foreign fleets as soon as the Sublime Porte should consider herself menaced. lThe plenipotentiaries of Austria having said that it was for that reason that they would have wished to see adopted the plan of a direct understanding to be arrived atin the conferences between the sea-bordering powers; on the reciprocal limitation of their naval forces. Prince Gortschakoff declares that it is one thing to appreciate the practical value of a direct understanding respecting a reciprocal limitation, as M. de Titoff was the first to do ; but another to furce upon Russia this limitation by means of a negotiation in the conference—a course which appears to him impracticable, and which the Ottoman plenipotentiaries have moreover declined. Drouyn de l'Huys lays claim to having originated the plan of a direct u nderstanding, adding, that Aali Pacha had not objected to the form in which he himself had proposed it, but that he was only opposed to an un derstanding being come to out of the conference, as con trary to the reciprocal engagements contracted by the allies. Prince Gortschakoff recalls to mind that M. de Titoff had, on his part, adverted to the difference existing be tween discussing and definitively concluding. Aali Pacha states his opinion that the third point having been adopted in common, the basis of the ar rangement which is to bring about its solution could in the:same manner not be settled except in common and in the conference; that direct negotiations with the Rus sian plenipotentiaries on the subject of this point would be contrary to the reciprocal engagements contracted between the allied powers ; and that it is only with re ference to the details that recourse might be had to the mode here proposed. M. Drouyn de l'Huys states that his plan embraces the three essential points of view : Ist, to embody the guarantee of the allies in the general treaty ; 11, to give to this guarantee the form of a distinct understanding between the sea-bordering powers ; and lastly, to pre vent any of the allies from entering into a separate ar rangement. Count Buol having in conclusion taken cognisance of the two principles contained in the proposed articles, Prince Gortschakoff remarks that it must not be for gotten that these two principles were intimately con nected with the adoption of the whole plan which he proposed. Baron Prokesch having recurred to the question as to the sense to be attached to the guarantee granted by the contracting powers to the Sublime Porte, M. Drouyn de l'lluys states that he has already pointed out the want of solidity in the guarantees offered by Russia on her part to the Ottoman empire. If its integrity be vio lated on land, Russia does not engage to defend it, but only to interpose her good offices ; if it be attacked by sea, Russia holds out the eventual assistance of her fleet by requesting that it be allowed to enter the Medi- terranean. Prince Gortschakoff having answered that since it is , the interest of Russia to defend the independence of the Porte, the explicit engagement is unnecessary, M. Drouyn de l'Huys remarks that it was not a question of interests emanating from geographical position, but of positive stipulations. Aali Pacha maintains that in the terms of the engage ment to be taken, all misunderstanding between the Sublime Porte and one of the contracting powers should be considered as a question of European interest ; that, consequently, the circumstances under which the com mon guarantee might entail war, could not be imminent. Prince Gortschakoff having expressed the hope that the ideas set forth by the plenipotentiaries of Russia would be taken into serious consideration, the plenipo tentiaries of France, Great Britain, and Turkey declare that they can only persist in their original declaration. Count Buol resumes by reiterating the opinions pro nounced by him ; adds that the project developed by the Minister for Foreign Affairs ofFrance and declined by the plenipotentiaries of Russia, contained a complete and effi cacious system ; that he could not say as much of the pro positions put forward this day • that Russia iu attachin g to the mutual guarantee the value: only of an engagement not to encroach on the independence and territorial in tegrity of the Ottoman Empire, reduces it, in fact, to an obligation which may be said to be self-evident ; that the arrangement proposed to act as an application of the principle of the cessation of Russian preponderance of the Black Sea, limits itself to the power reserved to the Sultan of calling foreign fleets to his aid whenever the preponderance of the Russian fleet should become threatening to him, which, in fact, would only tend to augment the chances of a misunderstanding ; that, to sum up, the Russian propositions could only be con sidered as including principles of a nature to be intro duced into a general and complete system. M. Drouyn de l'Huys concurs in every respect with the language of Count Buol. The Ottoman plenipotentiaries concur on their part. At the moment of closing the meeting, Prince Gort schakoff declares that the plenipotentiaries of Russia have amply redeemed their word by proposing several plans of solution.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. (Front the Times of this day.) There seems more and more reason to apprehend that the support of Austria, for which we have suffered so much and made so many concessions, will, after all, fail us. Must we, then, forgetful of all that we have demanded, all that we have done, make peace because Austria, after so many months of futile negotiation, such vast preparations, and such imposing military dis play, refuses to support in the field the cause to which she has repeatedly given her moral support and diplo matic assistance ? For her own conduct she will one day have to answer, and sooner or later will doubtless receive her reward. Let us leave her aside for the pre sent, and consider how far her apparent intention to staid aloof from actual conflict justifies us in withdraw ing from our pretensions and negotiating an ignominious peace. The first thing that strikes us is, that we com menced this struggle without securing the co-operation of Austria, confident in the might of the allied Powers, and deeming it better to interpose an effectual barrier to the threatened aggressions of Russia than to wait till we had spurred into activity the slow movements of a Power beset with every species of financial difficulty, and supporting herself with infinite labour by balancing against each other the jarring claims and conflicting in terests of so many discordant and disaffected nationali ties. Had we known what we now know of the dispo sition of Austria, should we in any way have altered our proceedings ? It is certainly possible that we might have objected to the occupation of the Danubian Prin cipalities by a Power so little disposed to aid in the only measures by which those Principalities could be placed in a state of permanent security. We might also have paused in the expedition to the Crimea, had we known that Austria would have contented herself with interposing her forces between the Turks and the Russians, and so left the latter free to pour the whole remaining strength of the army of occupa tion upon the flank and rear of the besiegers. But, having taken these steps, and having now for sixteen months stood the whole brunt of the war without the aid of Austria, and, indeed, with that diversion in fa vour of Russia which the occupation of the Danubian Principalities undoubtedly occasioned, we ask, with much confidence, is there any reason why we should dis continue a war begun and continued without Austrian co-operation, because that co-operation seems more dis tant and more unlikely than it did at first ? Are we prepared to admit that we were so rash and so fool hardy—that we so entirely miscalcuated our own force and that of our enemy, that the aid without which we did not scruple to draw the sword has now become in dispensable, and that therefore there is nothing left for us but to beg permission ignominiously to sheathe it ? What is this astonishing change which the 16 months have brought about, that we should exchange our former attitude of menace for one of crouching subserviency, - _ and, casting aside all self-confidence and self-respect, abjure that noble part which in a moment of genuine, but, as we are _told, transitory magnanimity, we had undertaken to play? We have lost, it is true, by the disastrous effects of a winter campaign, aided by the most murderous negli gence, some 20,000 excellent soldiers. The inhospitab!e coast of the Crimea has shattered to pieces a consider able number of transports, which our commanders had exposed to the storms of the Euxine ; we have found the climate of the East more pernicious than we were disposed to expect to human life, and the Turks even more helpless, and less able to provide for the wants of civilised man, than we could have expected. We find, in fact, that the greater part of our supplies must con tinue to be drawn from England, and that, if we wish to derive any help from the country we come to defend, we must provide roads, communications, markets, and con veyances entirely for ourselves. We have found moreover, that the seceond- rate States of Europe, in which class Prus sia must since the commencement of the present negotia tions and operations in the East undoubtedly be placed, are far more overawed by the power and terrified by the predominance of Russia than we had any reason to imagine. It would really seem as if the frontiers of that mighty despotism had advanced from the Niemen to the Rhine, and that literary, refined, artistic, scholastic, metaphysical Germany was content to smoke its pipe and drink its beer on sufferance under the shadow of the ~_ aegis of Slavonic power. Europe has tried to be Repub lican, and, true to the prophecy of Napoleon, is going to be Cossack. .. .. We have not understated the circumstances of the present crisis. Nay, we would, if we could, put them more forcibly, in order to rouse the attention of the nation and its rulers to the gravity of the position under which those who involved us in this war are now said to be dreaming of a dishonourable peace. Any peace, under existing circumstances, which should not com pletely establish the ability of the Western Powers to set a positive limit to the onward progress of Russia, would be absolute treason and perdition to the cause of liberty, juaice, and enlightenment throughout the world. If the Western Powers are not able now to arrest the onward course of Russian ambition and rapacity it is vain indeed to expect aid from any other quarter, or to hope that what they give up in despair to-day they will be enabled by any fortunate change of circumstances to achieve to-morrow. The favourite maxim of modern politicians,—"Rtculer pour mieux sauter," has no appli cation now. We cannot hope for a more favourable time than the present. Many circumstances might occur which would render our position less imposing than now, but none can be suggested with any plausibility which would be likely to improve it. In the Emperor of the French we have a faithful and an honourable ally, but we have recently been reminded by a lamentable in cident on how frail a thread an alliance rests which de ipeesisfys c o a n r e t l h e e s s life of h o f i s a p sing erso l n e a m l s a a n ee t a y n o d a tnhda so t m an en e o s m o p d a a s u s n e td by unscrupulous and inveterate enemies. From Germany ton years ago we might have hoped something ; now she has not the heart to stand forth in her own cause against her oppressor, and is quite as likely to resist as to support those who have really drawn the sword in her own quarrel. We need not mention Spain, which, habi tually without money, and deservedly without credit, is an object of pity to every one, but of terror only to her self. Neither can we look to the American Republic for aid in vindicating the rights of nations and asserting the supremacy of justice. Let any one read the letter of the " States'-man," and say whether, under the nume rous and not rigidly consistent causes which he alleges for a fact hitherto stoutly denied—the fact of the hos tility of the United States to the cause of the Allies—he cannot trace a feeling only seeking for excuse, and ready to find any pretext for believing England in the wrong. Under such circumstances we appear to have no choice. That which was at first merely a struggle to prevent the Russians from occupying Turkey and seizing on Constantinople has really become no thing less than a struggle for life and death, which is to decide the question between the advance of modern civilisation and its retrogression to a state below that of the greater part of Europe in the darkest period of the middle ages. It is vain to consider now whether it would have been wiser to precipitate this con test, or to trust to the chapter of accidents to dispel the dark cloud that is already spreading over our heads. The lists are prepared, and there is no escape for us ex cept by descending into them gallantly and fighting out this battle as we fought out so many others with our own good sword. Nor, if we can only prevail on our statesmen and generals to look danger boldly in the face, and act as men who hope for no success except in vic tory, have we any reason to tremble for the result. Now that we thorougly appreciate and understand the nature of the contest in which we are involved, we have no reason to fear a repetition of the miseries of the past year. Tents, and food, and clothing were wanting, and can be supplied ; in the spirit and courage of our men and officers there is, happily, nothing to de site. An abundant commerce fills our harbours with ships and our mercantile towns with prosperity, and the savings of the country double, according to ordinary calculation, the extra expenses of the war. While our enemy is driven to such straits that he is obliged to tax at an enormous amount those very exports already bear ing so heavy a burden in the shape of a land transport of hundreds of miles, we find that our progress, though checked, is not arrested, and that in the very midst of war we are able to enjoy not a few of the advantages of peace. History would present no parallel to the conduct of a ration which under such circumstances should re nounce the glorious career upon which she has entered, and prefer the certainty of defeat by treaty to the almost equal certainty of victory by persevering in war. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. Yesterday morning the household infantry of Gre nadier Guards were mustered on the Grand Parade, Wellington Barracks, Birdcage-walk, St. James's Park, and reviewed by his Royal Highness Prince Albert. His Royal Highness the Duke of Saxe-Coburg, attended by Captain Du Plat and a numerous staff, made a minute inspection of the men and their arms and accoutrements, 'a hick were found to be in a very efficient state ; after which Prince Albert addressed Sergeant 0 wen and Isaac Church, of the 3d battalion of Grenadier Guards, who have returned from the battles of the Alma and Inker man, in the most encouraging and energetic language, reminding them of the important services that they have rendered, and the bravery they displayed in those me morable battles.

' A. riot of rather ,a serious character took place on Sun day evening at Stonehouse and the west of Plymouth between the Royal Marines and the 2d Royal Cheshire Militia, originating in disputes at the beer-houses in the towns. The Militia were drawn up in martial array to the number of 200, and the Marines to about 100, when a fight took place which lasted some time. The Marines were then reinforced, and during the progress of the affraylhe combatants on both sides received serious cuts and contusions. It was necessary to employ a picket of soldiers from the garrison to quell this disturbance. A court of inquiry has been assembled to discover the origin of these disgraceful proceedings. Yesterday the new screw steam-transport Resolute, built by Mr. John Laird, went into the Mersey. She is to sail this morning with 140 Sappers and Miners for Kingstown, where she will embark 126 horses and have eight spare stalls. She then sails direct for Balaklava.

A squadron of the King's Own rejoined head-quarters on Monday from Hamilton, to be inspected with the regiment.

The second division were to leave Fort George to-day, and the third, with head-quarters, on Saturday. THE MILITIA.

This gallery has an arched glass ceiling, span ning the whole width of the apartment, which is divided into seven compartments by ribs of stucco, enriched with architectural ornaments. The glass is ground and ornamented with a very elegant pattern. The mode of illumination is by external lights of Cannel gas; the rays pass through the ceiling and light the gallery in a very novel and effective manner. All the doors leading into the gallery are panelled in looking-glass with very handsome gilt mouldings. The sculptured white marble chimney-piece was filled with choide and beautiful plants in flower. This and • the Picture Gallery are connected by a small anteroom, 7 also new, having a miniature dome—the walls, cornice, and ceiling of which are adorned with colours heightened with gilding, producing the utmost richness and variety of effect of which the modern style of decoration is ca pable.

DOVER, Wednesday morning.—At last the War-office appears determined to set to work in earnest, as far, at least, as concerns the foreign legion. We stated on Monday that depots were forming at Shorncliffe and Heligoland for the embodiment of 5,000 men, and that General Stutterbeim had been appointed commander of the force, Colonel Kinlock inspector, ned Colonel Wooldridge commander of brigade ; both the last-named officers having distinguished themselves in Spain, where they held high command in the British auxiliary legion. Having for some time past strongly advocated the expediency of employing some of the distin guished officers who served under General Evans, we are now glad to have it in our power to state that already strong evidence has. been shown and what may be done by chiefs having the capacity a a . 1 the knowledge requisite for the important duty of c r a n' c l i organisation. On Monday, Colonel Wooldri:dge ii upon the mayor, and the proper authoritdiesarret. form them of the momentarily expecteus step arrived a ight to_ r in: portion of the force, and requesting that confusion : possible he taken as would create as little rs f by the influx of a body of foreigners, j mayor promised to canud we need hardly add that our able and respect afford every assistance in hi s power in th e matter. Ste ps were also taken to and obtain f from the contractors such a su pply of provision creature comforts (what a con trast to Portsm outh) a s were necessary to render the t r oops on the ir 7 fortable as possibl e.

This is as it should be. THE NEW NOVEL, " THE H E "Emili a . W HEIRESS OF LLAUGHTON,' by the author of thoress of these vo l umes has frequently & ex c h .— ihi T te h d e haeur peculiar qualifications as a writer of fiction, and in every instance increased her reputation ; but we were not pre pared for the impassioned d e li neat i ons wh i ch a b oun d i n "The Hei ress of Naughton," nor inclined to believe that she would surpass her " Emilia Wyndham," the power of which made her reputation at once. Never theless, we can only do justice to the matter before us by saying that, we consider this tale to be the best which the authoress has yet written.—Messenger. THE DUKE OF BUCKINGHAM'S MEMOIRS OF THE COURT AND CABINETS OF GEORGE 111., FROM ORIGINAL FAMILY DOCUMENTS.—(VoIs. 3 and 4, completing the work.) — The present volumes (says the Athenreum) exhibit the same features as the former portion of the series. The general reader is entertained, and the reader for histori cal purposes is enlightened. Of their value and impor tance there cannot be two opinions. There are abun dant revelations of interest to arrest attention in many of these papers. On the chara cters of George iv. and the Duke of Wellington there are some very valuable letters. In Court scandals the affairs of the Duke of York and Mrs. Clarke are brought under notice ; and in what we may designate as public scandals, the "horrors of routine" receive abundant illustration in the letters about the Walcheren expedition and on the Peninsular war. Our extracts sufficiently show the high interest belonging to these volumes.
