We ought now to have the truth respecting the Federal losses at Bull's Run. General IVI'DowELL's official report has arrived; and as it has nothing in it improbable, we may, we presume accept its state ment. As might be expected it is better than some reports, and worse than others. He enumerates as killed, nineteen officers and four hundred and sixty men. The wounded are stated at one thou. sand, the missing at twelve hundred. These are to be sure somewhat round numbers, and are not - to be received, therefore, as exact to a unit. The killed and wounded are not more numerous than was natural from the length of the contest even at the distance of five hundred yards for small arms, and a thousand yards for artil lery. The missing are no doubt chiefly deserters, who had no inclination to renew their acquaintance with an enemy's fire. The stores captured must have been a great boon to the South. Thirteen loaded provision waggons was no trifle to men whom, we had learned, were much in want of a dinner ; three thousand bushels of oats were very acceptable to the cavalry, the rumoured approach of which, with black riders, proved so terrific on the 21st ; and the 2,500 mus kets will equip as many men who had been a short time before testing the value of their fowling pieces for a field of battle. Above all, we may be sure that the eight thousand knapsacks and blankets made many a Southern recruit think himself almost a monarch, in regard to soldierly wealth, unless they ha,cl wonderfully improved their equip ments since Mr. RUSSELL'S visit to them. General M'DOWELL says nothing of the lost guns ; yet they must have been a greater gain to the South even than a loss to the North. His army took forty-nine guns into the battle, and of these twenty iire remained with the enemy. They are described too as rifled brass field guns, the very class which the enemy most needed. Indeed, the North has quite set up many a Southern regiment with some comfort or other, and has furnished their artillery men with deadly weapons for the next B u ll' s R un . We are told no w on all hands that matters in the North are improving. The President has been invested, as was needful , with almost dictatorial imwers ; especially in that all - important point the nomination of officers, h e • Is now authorised to dis miss them at once, without even • • inqui r y. The nuisance of nomination of important party ponti ians to commands had reached such a • h rate , that nothing hut the most decisive measures in regard to officers, could insure the confidence of the men, or prevent a second panic from the most trifling cause. The last statement, and probably the true one respecting the panic is, that it began with a company of artillery rushing back in haste to replenish their stock of ammunition, and that the 'nearest regiments, mistaking it for flight, turned immediately, fled with precipitation, and communi cated the panic to others. Of course the all-important question is, are hos tilities likely to be proTlonged We fear there is no doubt of that. The South would not give in after a victory; the N'orth would not, and could not, after a defeat. The South has ridiculed the North as cowards ; this first battle will not diminish such taunts ; and it 'is not in Northern nature to endure them. Besides, the North will not hear of secession yet .7 and to reunite, with the character of chivalry 'on one side, and of runa ways on the other, would be merely a union to live in perpetual domestic tit rife. The universal opinion bow in the North seems: to be that it must be fought out. They do not stem to doubt their power to reclaim the wanderers, and they are more resolved now, we are told, th an. ever, to use their power to the utnio St' By an 6, 477 tenti ona l m i s t a k e ," i t i s sa i d Co ad ngress h " - voted L INCOLN one m i llion men, in ste of half lhat - nu) nb er , if h e lik es to use them ; and it is deterrain„4 that no means shall be wanting to insur e Ni e , ory next time.

Mr Webster, .ha said more accurately the Absorber into France of Savoy and Nice] abandoned that magnificent pro ' gramme set forth in the Milan Proclamation. It has alone been the calm resolve of the population which has guarded off the peril ever since then threatening to put an end (beyond the frontiers of Italy) to the policy of non-intervention. GARI BALDI'S magnanimous withdrawal to Caprera has done much, of course, by depriving foreign nations of any pretext for interference. CAVOUR'S resolute persistence in his policy at Turin up to the time of his lamented death, achieved, if possible, still more. There is also a great deal owing, no doubt, to the personal prestige of the "King of ITALY" himself, the Re Galantuomo. But, above all, the quiet, resolved bearing of the people, from the north to the south of the Roman Peninsula— that especially, that emphatically, has tended most securely to forward the steady advance of 23,000,000 towards the consolidation of their poli tical independence. That attitude of the nation it has been which has hitherto "held the hands," so to speak, of those surrounding and observant nationalities who have pledged themselves in Italy's regard to a Policy of Non-intervention. Yet, all the while—there cannot be a doubt of it— that policy of non-intervention has been trembling precariously, is still trembling precariously, in the balance. This —for reas ons , moreover, at once internal and external. The Italians themselves, remembering how it is that the northern part of the Peninsula is divided from the southern, and remembering also that the German soldiery still hold armed possession of one of the finest provinces of Italy (Venetia) still garrison the most formidable cluster of the Italian fortresses (the Quadri lateral)—the Italians themselves remembering all this for how can they ever cease to forget it"?) have had before them, around them, in the midst of them, perpetual incentives to the completion of their but half accomplished war of independence. The surrounding nations again, the very nations pledged to the policy of non - intervention—have not they also had many visible and appreciable incentives to fling down once more the gage of battle and to cast to the winds this very policy of non-intervention ? Austria—to prevent the further consolidation of a Power threatening the last remnant of her posses sions to the south of the Carpathians. France—to enhance the military prestige of the Lower Empire, to extend if possible her dynastic influence to the goal towards which the MURATIST aspira tions are ever tending, above all to develop if prac• ticable in the direction of Genoa or of the island of Sardinia, or of both, that insatiable NAPOLEONIC lust of territorial aggrandisement. The prudence of the Italians, the caution of contiguous races like the people of France, like the people of Aus tria—those chiefly, under Heaven, have been the securities for the maintenance of the balance o this still exquisitely-poised policy of Non-Inter. vention. And now, as to the passive resistance to which he Poles, but especially the inhabitants of Russian- Poland,havepledged themselves. That also has all along been trembling in a state of absolute uncer tainty. The question there has been from thefirst—it still is—the vital and momentous question, as to whether the people of Poland, particularly the people of Russian Poland, can by any possibility much longer persevere in this course upon which they have so wisely entered, yet one so difficult to pursue under the circumstances, the course marked out for them by the policy of passive resistance ! Their provo cations to break through it are so frightful and so ever - present. Hitherto for the most part they have throw aside those provocations. Yet at any moment there may come—at some moment there undoubtedly will come—a time when the term of their long suffering will have been reached. We have already premonitory hints of the advent of this period —a period that we be lieve to be in truth at this present juncture now fast approaching. Premonitory hints they are that vibrate through Europe like those precursive shocks of earthquake that herald the possible outbreak of a volcanic eruption from some apparently extinct crater —some crater, the cold lava and ashes of which have been clothed with the luxuriant vegetation of a century. Is it rot precisely and literally thus with re gard to Poland at this time, particularly with regard to Russian Poland ? Have we not had flashed to us this very forenoon, through one of our latest telegrams, one of the last and one of the most signi ficant of these premonitory symptoms, these vibra tions as of a corning political earthquake ?

No tale of horrors, however, hangs thereby—only a tale of a PERAMBULATOR —and of a very little one. The assault was a genteel touch on the shoulder of Mrs. MA'S, such as the Sergeant -at Arms gives a member of the House of Commons, by way of indicat ing that he used force ; and Mrs. Mais was thus admonished that Mr. MATHIAS expelled her, perambulator, child, and all from a pathway on which the lady was wheeling the child. Mrs. Ma's was, however, it seems, too brisk for the old gentle man : she took up the perambulator, it was a basket one, the babe in it, and marched in triumph over the disputed ground. Now, as the facts were not denied, and the magistrates thought it really involved a ques tion of right, they would not proceed as they do with poachers, whose cases they could settle with a tithe of the evidence now brought forward, but directed a trial before a superior court, and the QUEEN was to take the place of Mrs. Mikis. Oar readers must really turn to the trial itself. It resolved itself into the great question which thousands of mothers and nursemaids have resolved long before it was taken in hand by learned counsel before Mr. Justice BYLES—whether perambulators were a nuisance or not in a pathway. It ap peared that the public had a right to a path way four feet wide across this property much to the annoyance of Mr. MATHIAS. Still, annoyed or not, that much seemed clear. But then there was no right of way for horses and for carriages ; proof was furnished that means had been used to prevent their going along the path— but what of a perambulator ?—was it a carriage or not ?—was it a nuisance or not ? It was pleaded that it was nothing of an obstruction compared with crinoline ; and this special little perambulator being produced in court, and like a witness in Ire land placed on the table to give its evidence, con vinced all that it was nothing against crinoline—it was only about one-sixth of the diameter of a lady's present dress. The two QUEEN'S Counsel, Mr. KARSLAKE and Mr. M. SMITH, discussed the matter along with the Judge ; and the point came to be apparently whether, as the si ze cou ld no t b e a nui sance, the wheels were not so. The defend ing Q.C. contended that it was a serious obstruction to meet, but the Judge thought a lady in crinoline would be a much greater—the more gallant Queen's Counsel would rather meet the lady; but he forgot, surely, that there was always a lady of some grade in the world with the perambulator, and that her crinoline, whether maid or mistress, always far outflanks the poor little perambulator. Well, the Judge charged very learnedly, but do the best he could, he could not make the question of fact clear to the twelve men who had been sworn to deliver a faithful verdict. Nor is this to be wondered at when after enumerating many things which could hardly be excluded from a footpath, he added, "the line to be drawn was so fine that he believed no man in England was wise enough to determine it,"—small consolation this to the poor men who were all expected to be wise enough to make up their minds on the matter. As might be expected, they return into court non plussed. Then said the Judge, further, " I can't help it; you must be locked up." "What ! and no beds ? " " No, nothing but what is in the room. " There they must sit, lie, or stand as long as they like to settle the question of course by folly, since the Judge had told them no man was wise enough to settle it. The jury did not like, however, to incur the reputation of fools—so at length by consent they were let out, retaining their credit for average wisdom. And so ends the Great Perambulator case, tried at the Bristol assizes, before Mr. Justice 13YLEs. One piece of advice the Judge gave Mr. MATHIAS, which, we should think, the only law applicable to perambulators. Since no wisdom can decide whe ther they be a nuisance or not—" in passing through the world—observed his lordship— to avoid the angles and corners of the passages, no policy was wiser than for a man not to stand too strictly on his rights—if he did he would be in hot water all his life"—now that is about the wisdom, what ever may be the law of the whole affair ; so we hope Mr. MATHIAS left the Court at least a wiser man. What indeed could the old gentleman be thinking of to set him self against an ordinance of the ladies. If they and their nursemaids mean to driveperambulators along our pavements and paths how could he think of at tempting to coerce them? Why, if he had got the day fifty perambulators would have ran along his path and over his toes next day. He would have been perhaps knocked down by their wheels and brushed away by the crinoline. It is a mercy for him he did not beat, and our parting advice to Mr. MATHIAS is, not to fight again with perambulators, he will fare worse than his predecessor did with the windmill. THE7SUN,- LONDON, TUESDAY EVI3NINO, LYCEUM THEATRE. Last evening Mt. R. Falconer commenced an autumnal season at this theatre, and inaugurated the occasion by producing a new four act comely, the peice being his own creation. To cheer the manager on his somewhat perilous undertaking a very brilliant and crowded audience as sembled, and, after a very excellent overture, the curtain rose on the attraction of the evening, which was entitled " Woman, or Love against the World." The title, it will at once be conceded, is a good one ; but the great danger we apprehended was that which was likely to arise from the circumstance that the chief incident in the play resembled somewhat too closely the celebrated Yelverton marriage case. However, Mr, Falconer, while availing himself of the idea of what is termed a mixed marriage, has very judiciously avoided the further reference to the subject. The following brief description of the play will give a clear notice of the manner in which the author has worked up his subject. In the first and second acts the action is supposed to take place at the house of Mr. D'Arcy, near Tralee, on the south-west coast of Ireland, in the sum mer of 1858. Geraldine D'Arcy, niece of the owner of the estate, saves the Hon. Mr. Arden, who is wrecked, from death, by dragging him to the shore, and then sending her uncle's servants to convey him to their master's home. Here, after this romantic introduction, a feeling of love soon springs up between the pair, although the fair one has hitherto had an affection for her cousin, Mr. Valentine Blake, who has in return been equally smitten. A certain Lady Wilmington becomes possessed of a knowledge of the proceedings, whereupon she not only prevails upon the Hon. Mr. Lum ley Jones to undertake a journey for the purpose of thwarting the lovers' intention; but she herself hastens to the spot just as the marriage ceremony has been performed. But from the part played by the false friend in the affair the marriage is pronounced to be illegal. At this junc ture the uncle prevails upon his niece to accompany him to the Continent, and the husband on discovering their de parture becomes almost frantic. The opening of the third act finds the scene in the summer of the present day at Cloverton Park, Warwickshire, the seat of Lady Cloverton, who, amongst a house full of guests, has staying with her the principal personages of the drama. Many changes have occurred in the interval of three years ; the Hon. Mr. Arden, who has in the meantime been to India, has become Lord Lindengrove, and Geraldine is now Lady Letitia Mountjoy, Lady Cloverton being her aunt. Before the re appearance of the heroine on the scene Lady Wilmington has almost succeeded in her endeavours to ensnare the wavez ing hero ; but after an interview, during which curi ously enough, the husband did not recognise his wife, owing to her having exchanged a wig of dark hair for flaxen ring lets, everything is arranged in a satisfactory manner, and the affectionate twain agree to be happy together, utterly repudiating such courts as those over which Sir Cresswell Cresswell presides. Of course the Hon. Lumley Jones then agrees to wed Lady Wilmington, who, finding that she cannot have the hand of one complacently consents to accept the hand of another. With the parts of Geraldine and Arden the authot seems to have taken much pains, and as far as the first is concerned he has completely succeeded, but with respect to the latter he seems to have somewhat fallen off in his endeavours in the third act. In the first, second, and fourth, the interest is well sustained, but in the inter val above mentioned the author has not given Mr. Arden, or, rather we should say, Lord Lindengrove, that full play which we think would have added much to the interest of the comedy. The comic under-plot is very eleverly arranged, and invariably affords most seasonable relief, when the tide of true love, which, as poets say, never does run smooth, becomes more than ordinarily affecting. Mrs. Charles Young, as Geraldine D'Arcy, afterwards Lady Letitia Mountjoy, acted with all that grace, pathos, and true womanly feeling for which she is so remarkable. Miss Murray gave a very effective embodiment to a very disagreeable part—via., Lady Harriett Wilmington; and Miss Lydia Thompson, as Norah, was quite bewitching. Mr. H. Vezin's conception of the character of the Hon. Mr. Arden, the hero of the play, was a true and spirited one, and the development of it was marked by good taste, true feeling, and gentlemanly bearing. Mr. Walter Lacy adapted himself very cleverly to the part of the Hon. Lumley Jones, and fully sustained his well won reputation. Mr. John Robins, as Stubbs, is really an acquisition to the London stage. His manner is rich, broad, and humorous, and by avoiding the besetting sin of most of our low comedians, he will obtain a position in his pro fession to which he will be justly entitled. Mr. Addison's Mr. D'Arcy was an excellent performance, and Mr. Spencer, as Valentine Blake, acquitted himself with much ability. The success of the comedy was undoubted and indisputa ble. At the close of each act the principal performers ' were called for, and at the termination of the play Mr. Falconer, the author and manager, received an ovation. The only fault of the piece is its length, and, fortunately, much can be omitted which will not interfere with the development of the plot, but, on the contrary, add addi tional interest to it by a closer union of its most telling parts. The scenery is of the greatest beauty, and the appoint ments evince great taste and refinement. We cordially wish Mr. Falconer success in his under taking. COVENT-GARDEN THEA TI?E. The general taste for classical music was; last night illus trated by the fact that Mr. Mellon's Promenade Concert attracted a larger audience than on any occasion since the opening, the great feature being the devotion of the first part of the evening to the music of Mendelssohn. The selection comprised the overture and incidental music of "A Midsummer Night's Dream," an aria from " St. Paul," by Madame Laura Baxter, the duet from " Son and Stranger," by Mademoiselle Parepa and Madame Laura Baxter, and the overture to " Ruy Blas." The second part was miscellaneous. THEATRICALS AT RICHMOND. —The great success of the "Colleen Bawn," at the Adelphi Theatre, has led most of our provincial managers to secure the privilege of representing it to their patrons, and amongst the most successful of these active caterers for the public amusement, Mr. W. Sidney, of the Richmond Theatre, has peculiarly signalised himself. Although the recollection of the great Edmund Kean still clings to this pretty little theatre, Mr. Sidney, by producing first-class novelties, has succeeded for the last four years in making dramatic representations a highly remunerative speculation. His latest attraction, of course, is the " Colleen Bawn," with all its thrilling and novel effects. Miss Goward sustains the part of Eily O'Connor with groat taste, and Mrs. W. Sidney, as Ann Chute, gives a very excellent and spirited version of a large-hearted, high-spirited Irish lady. Miles is capitally pourtrayed by Mr. Sidney. The other principal parts, viz., —Danny Man, Hardress Cregan, Kyrle Daly, and Father Tom, are admirably sustained by Mr. Sam Colfield,f Mr, W. Collier, Mr. Walter Benn, and Mr. H. Lacy. THE KING OF ITALY AND GARIB ALDI cor respondent of the _Mats, writing from Turin on the 16th says :—" Count Trecchi, formerly aide-de-camp of Gari baldi, and at present aide-de-camp of the King, has just left this for Caprera. Count Trecchi has been the medium of communication between the King and Garibaldi, and his present mission has given rise to many conjectures. Some suppose that it refers to an expedition into Hungary ; others that the object is to induce Garibaldi to go to Naples with the view of tranquilising the people by means of his great popularity. Whatever be the object, the mission of Count Trecchi is a fact, and has excited considerable interest." CAMBERWELL FAIR REVlVED.—Yesterday a fair was opened in a field just out of the centre of the Lough borough-road, Brixton, and attracted a multitude of holiday makers. Although fairs in the metropolis and its suburbs have been suppressed, and Greenwich, Bartholomew, Cam berwell, and Chalk Farm fairs are numbered with the days that are gone, there appears to be nothing to prevent the holding them on private property, and this was the case yesterday, the field being let out for the occasion by the owner of it, Mr. Radcliffe, otherwise it would have been dealt with as what is termed "an illegal fair" by the police, and the parties to it would have been fined or imprisoned. As it was, all went on very merrily, the principal attractions being the usual Riehardsonian menageries and dramas, gorgeous displays of gilded gingerbread, sensation views of the great fire from photographs taken on the spot, and a variety of miscellaneous amusements. THE MURDER OF A WIFE IN NEWTON-STREET.— HoLnortN.—The adjourned inquiry on the body of Mary Ann Cogan, which was found in so appalling a condition at No. 4, Newton-street, on the morning of the 2d inst., was fixed to take place at the Archer publichouse, near the house in which the tragedy was committed, yesterday morning. On Saturday night, however, Mr. Inspector Mackenzie, of the F division of police, forwarded a notice to the coroner's office that the accused husband, although it was believed he would have been in a fit state to have been present to hear the evidence against him, was now unable. Mr. Fortescue, the surgeon under whose care the accused has been since the frightful event, deemed it necessary to fur ther detain him for a fortnight or longer, as the wound in the throat was of a mechanidal character, and healed but; slowly. Cogan t Ilks but very little, but is very anxious to see his friends and to leave the hospital. Mr. Fortescuo is anxious to prevent any injurious excitement to his patient. A somewhat curious question was the day before yesterday submitted to the Civil Tribunal of Rambouillet. A peasant, named Guibout, obtained in MG, from the Agricultural Society of the Seine-et -Oise, a gold medal, worth ;300fr., for having se , ved for forty-five years on the same farm ; and one of 10 0 fr., as a prize for thresh ing grain. He died in 1859, and his eldest son took the medals. But his widow and her other children brought an action to get them from him, must be sold for its benefit . But the tribunal held that on the ground that they belonged to the whole family, and hood, honourable distinctions which cannot be confounded with property, and must he regarded as what oid lawmakers call 4t f am il y monum e n t s ," and that, as the eldest son is an honest, ) he Was en titl e d t o re t a i n the two in question, subject to th e condition of producing them whenever called on, ion, well-conducted man AUGUST 20, 1861. L A E r EW S. W __-~. ~-~ KALISCH, AUG. 18. Serious disturbances broke out here yesterday in consequence of the arrest of an apothecary. Crowds of people assembled and insulted the patrols. A great number of women wearing the national colours surrounded the Colonel and demanded the release of the prisoner, which was thereupon granted. The number of people, ho•Wever, gradually in creased, and their attitude became more threaten ing, until the whole garrison assembled under arms and threatened to fire on the people. Numerous arrests have been made. RAGUSA, AUG. 19. The chief of the insurgents in the Herzegovina has requested the intercession of Russia, in order to bring about peace with the Turks. Omar Pasha has approved this proposal, and the Russian and Austrian Embassies at Constanti nople have deputed Commissioners to proceed to Mostar, in order to open negotiations. FRANCE. A letter in the Constitutionnel, dated Grand Mourmelon, 18th inst., says :---- " The Piedmontese General Fanti has arrived at I the camp, as also Nalim-Pasha, brother of the Viceroy of Egypt. The Emperor attended to-day the experiments with the rifled canon. The results were most satisfactory. The firing commenced at 2,000 metres against pontoons representing a battalion in line of battle. The butt was hit every time with remarkable precision. The balls, after traversing the butts, spun along from 400 to 500 metres before their force was expended. On Sunday there will be a grand high mass and dis tribution of crosses. General Fanti is accompanied by two officers of the Italian army, and intends following the manoeuvres. He is lodged at the Imperial head quarters. Prince and Princess Joachim Murat, Princess Anna Murat, and Prince Achille are staying at the camp. There is a grand dinner this evening, to which the Duke and Duchess of Magenta are invited.

Mr. David Urquhart was present, and Lord Robert Montagu was also `expected to take part in the proceedings. The noble lord, however, sent an apology, and a long explanation of his views upon the above subjects. Speaking of " count-outs" Lord Robert said : " A count-out' does not ' overtake a dull and stupid speech.' I have heard many such speeches, when no one dreamt of counting the house. I have always seen the house nearly empty when the fate of millions of our Indian fellow-subjects has been discussed ; but no one tried to count out the house. I have seen the benches deserted while millions sterling of English people's money were being voted away; but if anyone had moved that the house be counted,' he would have been deemed no better than a fool or a madman. A ' count-out' is always pre concerted and arranged between the leaders on each side of the house. It is attempted only when a subject which is inconvenient to Government either has been broached or is about to come on. It takes place when a case has been made out which cannot be satisfactorily answered, or when there is on the paper for subsequent discussion a notice of motion which is likely to bring awkward facts to light. Sometimes a ' count-out' is resorted to when, in an impending division, to vote one way would be a scandal, and would give just offence to constituents ; and to vote the other way would imply a censure on their accomplices, or would commit the Govern ment to a course which would militate against their schemes. A count-out,' in fact, is quite in accord ance with a tendency that has predominated in modern legislation—it carries out the determina tion to conceal things from the nation, and even to take the supervision and control of affairs oat of the hands of Parliament itself. The Cabinet have thus virtually constituted themselves the rulers of the empire. Their deeds are kept secret from the people ; and even concealed and shrouded from the inquiring gaze of Parliament. The Queen herself is generally shut out from the secret deliberations of the Cabinet; and despatches have been written in her name without her sanction. The Cabinet feel that they rule the empire, and do not blush to affirm it when they say, ' We sent the army there ;' We - made such an arrangement with that foreign despot;' We propose to take such and such a course.' The Queen is nothing now in her own kingdom. Similarly the people talk of the Go• vernment of Lord John Russell,' 'the Government of Lnrd Palmerston.' But no one thinks of the Government of the Queen. When any one gets impatient under this tyranny of a cabal, and wishes to return to the ancient order of things, and pay, to the best Sovereign who ever adorned the throne of England, the honest allegiance which they owe— then the cabal to the right of the Speaker agrees with the ex-cabal on the other side to smother these endeavours by a count-out. It is thus that the coun try is crucified between two thieves. Then again the effect of these ' counts' is to accumulate a great mass of business for the end of the session. Every one then is fatigued and ill, from doing a lot of work which should never have been put upon them ; the accumulation of business is hurried through in the most unseemly manner ; and no one challenges any misdeed or extravagance. Thus the same inde pendence of Parliamentary supervision, the same immunity from scrutiny is secured by the press of business at the end of the session as by the counts out' at the beginning." Mr. E. Baines, M.P., also sent a letter, in which, after alluding to the Danish succession question, he thus speaks of the practice of counting out the house :—" The practice of ' count i ng out ' the house is resorted to either when a very dry subject or one that is particularly unpal a t a bl e to some one section of the hous e is under discussi on . Th e t i me gene rally chosenis when the greater part of the members are at dinner, that is between seven and nine o'clock, at which part of the evening the attendance is always thin. There is also especial liability to count out on the night f o ll owing a very prolonged and exciting debate, but it is considered a clever thing and a good joke thus to burke a troublesome dis cussion. Sometimes one side of the house suffers from the practice, and sometimes the other side. Lord Robert Montagu was stopped on the occasion to which I have referred ; bnt the most audacious case of the kind that I have known was earlier in the last session, when a liberal member was speak ing, and several conservative members stood at the door of the house, after the Speaker had been re quested to ' count,' and whilst the warning bell was ringing, and blocked up the way, so that mem bers desirous to get into the house had almost to fight their way through, and Mr. Baxter had his hat smashed. On the night of the Danish discus sion Lord Robert Montagu was deserted by his own side of the house, not more than ten or a dozen members of that side being present when the 'count' was called for, and not one on the front opposition bench; whilst Lord Palmerston and Lord John Russell were both in their places. If you can do anything to promote a better attendance of mem bers, especially during the discussion of the esti mates, you will render a public service. But I doubt the expediency of prohibiting a count-out' when the attendance is so thin as to make the pro ceeding with business a mockery. There must, I conceive, be Pomo limit below which the house should be prevented by its own rules from proceed. ing to any important division. Nor can you confine members to the house. They must dine ; and many members wh o are attending on committees from twelve at noon to four, and in the house from four to seven, go about that time to dinner ; and return about n i ne or ten to stay till the house r ises, menrises, perhaps at o ne or two i n the morning. These cannot be blamed. The blame belongs to these who neither attend committees nor the house, ex cept on great party battles oroth c e ? r nst e i x tu c e it n i e n yg ‘ occasions. I see no remedy for counts-out' a n d scanty attenda nces , except i n ever y looking after it s own mem b e rs, an d , giving th em a hilt when th ey neg l ect th e ir duty. Mr. Urquhart and his friends then agreed to resolutions de claring it to be the duty of members o f P arliament to stick mo re c l ose ly to their work, and assertin g that it is "i mproper to interfere with the ancient country pe o pl e , Government." attempt being made by ifs laws of successiondtuotythoef Cthreownopfleaoffortehiigsn an d that it is the such people to resist any RAILWAYS.

A Turin letter of the 16th in the Presse thus describes the goings on of the clerical prints in that city :—" The clerical journals, on the occasion of the fete of the Assumption, invoke the Holy Virgin and all the saints in favour of the temporal power of the Pope. The tirade of the Armonia is per fectly burlesque in its despair A signal reward has been promised to those who honour the most Holy Virgin. And who has honoured her more than Pius IX. by declaring her immaculate ? Come, beautiful Virgin (surria Vergine bella) give this reward to our Holy Father. Let the nations see how powerful is thy arm ; let those who blaspheme thee every day be confounded, let them be converted and live. Tender mother, we ex pect from thee a tremendous (strepitosa) blessing ; the saints have made us acquainted with the great ness of thy heart, and the power of thy patronage renders it certain. 'We will remain at thy feet, at those feet which bruised the head of Lucifer, the first ambitious spirit, the first traitor, the first revolutionist in the world, nor will we leave them until thou shalt have granted, and very speedily too (e presto), that Pius IX. may be con soled in his afflictions, delivered from the perils which surround him, the conqueror in the war fare he so heroically sustains, and Italy, delivered from snares, made independent of the Evil One, great in her piety, and one in her affection for the Pope, and in her devotedness to the Holy see.'" A letter from Thrill of the 16th says :—" After the celebration of Te Deum in honour of the fete of the Emperor of the French yesterday, in the Church ' of St. Francisco di Paula, in the presence of the members of the French legation, the wearers of the medal of St. Helena waited on Count de Ilayneval, the French charge d'affaires, and offered him their good wishes for his Majesty. At Milan, a Te Deum in honour of the Emperor was chanted in one of the principal churches, and was numerously attended. The church was decked with French and Italian flags, and so likewise were many private houses." The Opinione of Turin explains as follOws the rumours of General Cialdini's resignation. The General having only accepted the mili tary command for the purpose of purging the country of the brigands who infest it, has for some time provisionally exercised the functions of Lieu tenant-General until a new one should be appointed. Unable to devote his attention both to military and civil affairs, he has urged upon the Government the necessity of speedily providing for the latter, and hence the rumours which have alarmed the public. A communication from Naples, in the Presse, says:—"Cialdini has succeeded. Brigandage is at its last gasp. By a rapid march he first drove it back on to the mountain fastnesses of Sore, Marano, Pago, and Pietracalcina, near Benevento. Then, by a concentric movement the troops, retracing their steps, surrounded it on all sides and crushed it. The brigands fight like men who have no hope, so that extermination becomes a necessity. The troops are now driving together the remnants, and as soon as 400 or 500 are united in any locality they will be attacked on all sides." PRUSSIA. The Prussian Gazette of the 17th inst. says : "His Majesty the King of Prussia left Baden this morning at 9 o'clock, en route for Cologne, where he will pass the night, to continue his journey at 6 o'clock for Ostend." SPAIN. The Mar .. .rid journals of the 15th have arrived. M, Bermudez de Castro, who still bears the title of Spanish Envoy to the ex-King of the Two Sicilies, had returned to the capital from a visit to the Queen at Santander. The Duke and Duchess de Mont pensier are expected to return to Spain at the end of the month. A deputation of Catalonian volunteers was about to leave Barcelona for Madrid to present to Generals Prim, Cervina, and Ros de Olano, crowns of honour in acknow ledgment of their military service in Africa. At Cordova the police had made searches in booksellers' shops to seize prohibited books, and especially those of a Protestant character. The heat was increasing everywhere; at Madrid it had attained 110 geg. 75 (Fahrenheit) in the shade ! The Marco Polo, Koh-i-noor, Orwell, and Water Nymph are still at sea, with an aggregate of X 384,500 in Australian gold, of which on l y £2G,000, by the Marco Polo, is now due.

The Sanitary Commission has closes its third session, and the following is an account of its recent proceedings : Immediately after the battle of Bull's Run the agents of the Commission at Washington were en gaged, un d er the direction of Dr. Harris, in visit ing the wounded and administering, as far as possible, to their wants. Sureical dressers , nurses, and various needed articles, not available in Washington, were at once ordered by telegra . ph , and supplied as soon as possible from other cities. An unsuccessful attempt was made to penetrate the enemy's lines and carry aid to the wounded on the field of battle. The Rev. C. L. Brace, of New York, took a prominent part in these labours. Mr. Olmsted, the se cre t ary, b e i ng at the time engaged in his duties at the Central Park in New York, en being apprised by telegraph of a severe engage, ment, at once too k measures to procure and sen d forward such articles as were likely to be wanted in large quantities, and came as soon as possible to Washington, accompanied by several competent surgeons. Nearly all the members of the comma: sion arrived within three days, and a systematic examination of th e h osp i tals, and of the condition of all the forces engaged in the battle, was under taken at the outset. Large bodies of soldiers were , found in compl e t e di sorgan i sation, sick at heart, and in great misery. The causes of this demoralisation , which appeared by no means adequately accounted for by the mere circumstance of the repulse at Bull's Run, were ma d e a subject of careful exam': nation, not yet fully completed, the results of which will be published. Whatever essential was found wanting at the hospitals for the wounded, which could not at once be procured through the ordinary Government channels, was, as far as practicable, obtained by the Commission, and supplied gratuitously. Among the more important of 'these were water-beds for certain severe surgical cases, water-pillows and rings, sheets and pillows, bed shirts, drawers, and napkins, wire cradles for supporting wounded limbs, frames for supporting bed clothing above them, and for holding mosquito-netting over the face, &c. More than 2,000 articles of this kind have been distributed by the Commis sion, nearly all of them having been supplied by benevolent societies and individuals in response to a call from the secretary and treasurer, which appeared in the same issue of the newspapers with the first announcement of the battle. What was not thus provided in time the funds in the hands of the Commission enabled it to purchase. Many articles have also been devised, ordered, and con structed in Washington for the occasion. A large number of little tables to be set upon the bed, with supports for the arm s , h ave b een prepared. Means for amusing the patients, backgammon-boards, BeFe and light reading, are also furnished by the Commis sion. A store of paper, envelopes, pens, and ink is sent to each hospital, and a person is to be employed to write letters for those unable to write themselves. A barber is also employed by the Commission, who goes the roundof the hospitals, shaving and cropping all the patients who desire this attention gratuitously. Fifty tons of ice have been placed at the disposal of the hospital surgeons, with instructions to use it generously for the comfort of the patients. The Com mission has nearly 200 tons more ready to be brought to Washington if it should be required. There are many details of this branch of the Commissioner's labours which cannot be described in a general re port, but which have added much to the relief of the poor fellows, and are much appreciated by them, as well as by the surgeons in charge. All the action of the Commission in this respect has been in entire harmony with, and subjection to, the regular sur gical authorities. The debates of the Commission in the late session have been chiefly with reference to practical mea sures for placing the army on a firmer basis of dis cipline, and under more intelligent and efficient con trol, the experience of the Commission thus far hav ing showed that all efforts for the health of the troops were useless until a radical improvement could be ef fected in this respect. Resolutions were passed with reference to the absence ofofficers from theircamps, to the prevalence of intemperance, to the neglect of duty of various officers, advising changes in the mode of payment and measures for the encouragementof better feeling between the men and their officers, and be tween the civil authorities and the volunteer army. These resolutions were communicated to the proper authorities, and the Commission had interviews with the President and the committees of both Houses of Congress with reference to certain changes of the laws favourably to the purposes in dicated. The action of the Commission, seconded as it had been by the most earnest personal efforts of its members and their friends, has doubtless had some influence in bringing about the changes now so well established in the military government at Washington, and with which the public has been so much gratified. These, however, must be attri buted mainly to the intuitive perception of the military necessities of the case by General M'Clellan, and it is a matter of congratulation with the Com mission that measures which they had vainly urged for weeks before were adopted by him immediately upon his assuming command. Competent officers being the obvious first want of the army, the Commission has taken measures for obtaining the fullest available information with regard to the present occupation and condition of all living graduates of West Point, which will soon be placed before the Government and the public. action was taken looking to a simplification of the means of obtaining hospital supplies, and for an enlargement of the range of supplies. It being found that, under the present arrange ment, the surgeons in charge of the military hospi tals were greatly embarrassed to get their patients' clothes washed, means for temporarily relieving them in this particular were taken. Measures were initiated for registering and securing means for the identification of the dead during the war. This matter, now almost entirely neglected, is one of great importance, and thousands of bereaved friends will eventually have occasion for gratitude to the Commission for its action in regard to it. Intelligent surgeons have been despatched as agents of the Commission to the army in Missouri and Cairo, as well as to the columns of Banks and. Butler. An agent is also to join General Rosen cranz. The present condition of the army here in respect of camp police is thought to be more and more dan gerous than that of any large civilized army which has been living in fixed camps at any time during the present century ; but, from the vigour with which Gen. M'Clellan has entered upon his duties, a rapid change is confidently anticipated. Without it, our army is in the greatest possible danger of being destroyed by a pestilence before winter. The season least favourable to health is about commenc ing, and the neglect of sanitary precautions is a neglect of the most imperative military duty. AUSTRIA A.ND HUNGAR A writer in a contemporary says—The high posi- Aon that England now fills in the eyes of the world renders it not unlikely that the speech of Mr. Roe buck at Southampton may 'obtain an importance that it does not deserve, and, by misleading the Emperor of Austria as to the state of public opinion in this country upon the Hungarian question, may be productive of very great evil. It becomes, there fore, the duty of the press to supply the necessary corrective, and to prevent the Emperor of Austria from being fortified in a policy of violence and ille gality by the mistaken idea that his new-born con stitutionalism will atone for all faults, past, present, and to come. The address of M. Deak puts the constitutional position and rights of Hungary so clearly and logically that I will not endeavour to add one word to its si mp l e and lucid argument ; I will, however, supply one point of view that was necessarily omitted, and which is of vital im portance to the right appreciation of the ques tion at issue. I s t h e Reichsrath a reality, or a sham ? Is Austria a constitutional country, or is she not ? If these questions are to be answered in the affirmativ e , it f o ll ows t h at t h e A us t r i an E mperor and army h ave b o th f oun d a master.

I t vote e is for this new-fangled craft, which we all b e li eve cess is on a is only fit to sail in a smooth sea, that Hungary is required to surrender her stout old constitutional ship, which has long withstood the battle and the breeze, and because she stands u p on h er legal rights she is to be coerced. No, sir, the Emperor Ills but one course to pursue if he would persuade the world and his. • • • • • empism a ire to elieve in the sincerit of hi s constitution 1 . h and b tatis to act tit once y With strict l't ga y.

Hereafter, if for some score of years he really governs constitutionally, the two parts of his em pire may probably be willing to unite for mutual support and protection. But if this is to come to pass we must have no coercion of Hungary now. A constitution must be tried before we can be sure that it will wear, and neither a Francis Joseph. sor a Francis 11. must expect the article they pro duce to be accepted on their simple warranty. AMERICA. NEW YORK, AUG. 10. (Per Anglo Saxon, via Qaebec and Londonderry.) It is reported that the Confederates are concen trating in large force at Fairfax, and are throwing up entrenchments at the favourable points near that place. The Confederates burned the town of Hampton, near Fortress Monroe, on the 7th inst. General M'Dowell's official report of the battle at Bull's Run has been published. It gives the number of killed at 19 officers and 460 men, 1,000 wounded, and 1,200 missing on the side of the Federalists. The Secessionists captured 13 loaded provision waggons, 3,000 bushels of oats, 2,500 muskets, and 8,000 knapsacks and blankets. The Europa has arrived out. (LATEST BY TELEGRAPH via FATHER POINT.)
