This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their Own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the prell • minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

On Sunday, the 30th June, the residents of Tipperary Gully were aroused by the cries of " Roll up," and in the course of a very short time upwards of a thousand men, armed with bludgeons and pickhandles, no fire-arms as yet appearing, were assembled round the "No Chinese" stan dard. Forming themselves in a rude kind of order of march, and with a band of music, which appears to have been thoughtfully provided for the occasion by the leaders of the movement, at their head, shout'ng, yelling,'and singing, the crowd of rioters took the road to Lambing Flat, a distance of some four or five miles. Arrived there, every Chinese resident in the township on wh )m hands could be laid was attacked and maltreated, the chief object of ambition being to secure the long tills of hair with which the Chinese are accustomed to ornament their heads. The main body was here joined by numerous others, who came flocking in from all quarters, until the number assembled amounted to at least 3,000 persons. Finding themselves so strong, and being determined to make a clean sweep of the Mongolians now that they were about it, they now turned their atten tion to the Chinese camp, situated on the spot and within the area allocated to them by the Commissioner in accord ance with the regulations previously made, and apparently agreed to by the diggers. This was at once attacked and carried, the Chinese being driven off, under circumstances of great barbarity in some cases, and all cases without being permitted to take with them any of their property. It has been said also that many of them were robbed of various amounts of gold and cash ; and that, mixed up with the crowd of rioters were numbers of women and children, all actively engaged in plundering the property of the runaways of everything valuable, or convertible, prior to carrying the remainder to the enormous fires that were kept up with such kind of fuel. In the meantime the band, placed in a conspicuous position, enlivened the scene by playing spirit-stirring airs, to an accompaniment of yell. and shouts that would have done credit to a New Zealand war dance. Excited with their triumph, heated with their violence towards unresisting captives, and possibly thirsting for the plunder, of which this last attack had given them a taste, a wild and savage yell of joy was raised, when some one suggested Back Creek as the next spot to visit. Shouting, firing (for guns were now pretty generally produced), singing, laughing, and cheering, the body of rioters moved off towards Back Creek, a locality about six miles from where they then were, and where it was known that:there were several hundreds of Chinese at work. Information of the projected attack was, however, taken over to the Chinese in this locality, who, hastily packing up the most valuable and portable portions of their property, hurriedly made off from the spot. The rioters were not long behind them, and on coming up, a savage yell of disappointment rose up from the mob when they found that their prey had escaped. The tents, goods, &c., left behind were fired, after having been looked over for plunder; and such articles as would not burn were de stroyed by being broken with axes. Whilst this had been going on, a number of the rioters, who were mounted on horseback, galloped forward on the track of the retreating Mongols, overtook them, not much more than a mile away, headed them, and rounded them up in the same way as a shepherd dog would do a flock of sheep. Information of the surround was sent off to those behind, who, eager for their prey, were already on the road. Here ensued a scene such as, thank heaven, it seldom falls to the lot of a Bri tish journalist to record. Unarmed, defenceless, and un resisting Chinese were struck down in the most brutal manner by bludgeons provided for 'the occasion, and by pick handles. The previous excitement had done its work, and now the wretched Mongols were openly and unblushingly searched for valuables, and robbery was committed with out the slightest attempt at concealment. Very few of the poor creatures here attacked escaped with their pig-tails, none of them without injury of some kind, whilst every article of the property they had endeavoured to take with them was plundered of all that was valuable, and then burnt. Some of the acts of barbarism said to have been committed here were such, that English men can scarce be brought to credit that their countrymen could be guilty of them—for who amongst the British people could ever believe that men of their own country, Britons, would take the Chinese pigtails with the scalp attached ? That this WA done in more than one in stance there can be no doubt, since the possessors of these trophies made no concealment of them, but rather prided themselves on their possession. Some of the scenes that then took place are thus described by our special correspondent :—Men, or rather monsters, on horseback, armed with bludgeons and whips, with a fiend- like fury, securing the unfortunate creatures by taking hold of their tails and pulling their heads, so that they came with their backs to the horse and their heads upon the sad dle, and then cutting, or rather sawing them off, and leaving them to the fury of others who surrounded them. One unfortunate Chinese boy went down upon his knees, the tears ran down hislcheeks as he lifted his hands and pleaded for mercy; a ruffian, with a bludgeon sufficient to kill a giant, with one blow felled him to the ground. Another unfortunate creature, a cripple, was trying to crawl away into the bush—he could not walk—and endeavouring to take a blanket; it was ruthlessly torn from him and carried to a fire where their property was being consumed. Here was to be seen another propped up against a tree, his lore • head lad open, and the blool running down his face—truly terrible to behold. But these details are sickening. I have only mentioned what came under my own notice. Were I to narrate only a tithe of the atrocities committed that day, that have been communicated to me, it would fill a volume. Mr. Henley, the Chinese interpreter, in a letter he has ad dressed to the Governor, detailing his view of this outrage, mentions the following :—A European woman with three small children, who is the wife of a Chinaman, was sitting in her tent rocking her baby in the cradle. The lawless mob burned down her tent, and her cradle wherein the infant was sleeping. Her own and children's clothes were torn to pieces by a lot of vagabonds, who counselled together for the violation of the woman and murder of the children, but were prevented by the timely interference of some of their number less hardened than the others. ' With such facts before their very eyes, it is not to be wondered at that the feeling of the large bulk of the resi- dents on the spot is greatly against the perpetrators of so gross an outrage, and that expressio ns of the utmost indig nation have been most freely made use of. So extensive and savage an outbreak could not fail in at once opening the eyes of all to the real position in which the authorities at Lambing Flat were placed, and now at last was done that which should have been done long before. The electric telegraph was set to work, and all the available police from the districts round about were ordered up to Burrangong. Captain Zouch, with the troopers of the mounted patrol, arrived there on the evening of the 6th instant. Several men of the foot police came up from (time to time, until the total number of the force, horse and oot, reached 57. On the following day, Sunday, the 7th inst., there was a very large assemblage of diggers and others in the township, and though rather boisterous, there was no rioting. Things remained in a perfect state of quiescence during the week, and it was imagined by some that this outrage, like those which had preceded it, was to bo allowed to die quietly out of memory. But in the interim, explicit instruc tions had been received from the Government to enforce the law by apprehending every one of the ringleaders in the last riot who could be identified. No opportunity of carry ing these instructions into execution occurred until Sunday, the 14th inst., on which day, from the diggers being unem ployed in their holes, and therefore, out and about, and generally assembling in the township, the police identified and arrested three of the ringleaders in the late riot. The news of this arrest spread like wildfire along the diggings, and the cry of "Roll-up I" was quickly raised in Tipperary Gulls, which appears by all accounts to be the centre of all disturbance. The alarm thus raised quickly brought up an armed mob, the number of which has been variously esti mated at from 500 to 1,000 persons, which, under self-con stituted leaders, who appeared to start up ready for the occasion, at once marched up to the camp. Intelligence of the advance was given to the authorities, who speedily put the camp into a state of defence, and placed their men in such positions as to offer the most effectual resistance in the event of violence being attempted. Shortly before eight p.m., the mob, all fully armed, drew up in front of the camp; but, before proceeding to extre mities, sent in four delegates to have an interview with the Commissioners. They were met by Captain Zouch, of the mounted patrol, and Commissioner Griffin ; and, in the first place, asked if any, and what number, had been arrested with respect to the late riots. They were informed that three were arrested ; they then stated that they were re quested to demand their release. Both Captain Zouch and Mr. Griffin firmly yet coolly declined to release the pri soners, informing the deputation at the same time that the law must take its course —that the parties arrested would be brought before the court on Monday morning, and would then be dealt with on the evidence produced against them. With this reply, the delegates went moodily back, but before Captain Zouch could get back, a volley was fired from the mob, at the Camp. Mr. Griffin then went forward and read the Riot Act, which was treated with derisive laughter by the mob, who still approached the Camp, with cries of " Roll up," "Rele ase th e prisoners." Every endeavour was made and caution given that could be cal culated to induce them to desist. Orders were at last given to fire, and then erre volley was fired over their heads. This did not appear to intimidate them, and at last the m ounted troopers were ordered to the front. They h a d scarcely drawn up when a volley was fired, and two Q f th e became to charge, but not to fi re . and the t roo pers were ordered horses fell. The excitement hereintense, were fired in continual succession at them, but,in orders they had received. t T h h e e c m o mob now closed in and approached the camp, evidently , troopers' horses at way they obeyed the with the intention of rushing it, They were again cau- Honed, but heedless of this they endeavoured to make the rush. Orders were given to the foot police to fire, and two volleys were poured in steadily to the advancing masses, shivering the head of the attack, and causing it to fall back in disorder upon those behinds At this moment, the mounted men, who had been posted at the rear of the camp, were ordered to take advantage of this confusion, and make a final charge; and no sooner was the order issued than the cavalry were amongst the disorganised mass, galloping through and through it, sabreiug on all sides, and driving the now help less, but still vindictive, crowd back across the creek. Captain Zouch's account of the conflict, as forwarded by telegram to the Government, is as follows : The mob came on the camp at a quarter to eight last night, after sending in four delegates to speak to the Com missioner; demanded the release of the prisoners ; and gra dually moved forward, evidently intending to rush the place. A division of patrol, under Mr. M'Lerie, was ordered to clear the ground, and was immediately fired upon by the rioters. The patrol charged well, night though it was, and drove numbers over the banks of the creek, the foot patrol firing into the mob; but it was not till three charges had been delivered, and the firing at intervals con tinued for more than two hours, before the rioters with drew. Every man did his duty as well as men could do it. Three men of the patrol were wounded—two gunshot wounds in one arm And one contused; one horse which dropped was recovered with four balls in him, and two horses missing wounded. Of the rioters, we know of one killed, and several wounded. As soon as I can ascertain losses I will inform you. The darkness prevented our making any prisoners. After this defeat the mob sullenly withdrew, with a threat, however, of returning on the following day, better armed and better prepaied for k their work. On the following morning, Monday, the three men who had been arrested, and for whose release so much blood had been shed, were brought up, examined, and committed for trial, but were subsequently admitted to bail. Of the course that Mr Zouch afterwards found it necessary to pursue, he thus speaks in a later telegram to the Government : _ The camp was attacked for the purpose of rescuing thre e prisoners for Chinese riots. We fought them for two hours and more. Attack commenced at a quarter to eight o'clock, and by ten o'clock we drove them off, killing and wounding many. Three, we know, are dead, and we have beard of numbers wounded. My report will explain all. Seven spe cial constables came to the camp —two only armed. Thf.re was no response to the call made to the respectable part of the community. Position I found untenable against the numbers that wore prepared to revenge the defeat of Sunday night. Some 3,000, better prepared and organised, were to attack, and had sworn to destroy the whole of us. I have brought away the whole force, wounded includ e d. When the police authorities determined upon evacuating their position, our special correspondent, whose life had been threatened by the ringleaders in the riot, on account of the too truthtul way in which he had dealt with their pro. ceedings, left Lambing Flat, and fell back upon Yass, and we are without positive information in regard to the subse quent proceedings of the rioters, or to the number of killed and wounded in the repulse of Sunday night ; but this gen tleman telegrams from Yass to say that three men killed on that night were buried on Tuesday, 16th, and that at the funeral of one of them, forty men bandaged for wounds were present, and that it was currently reported that over a hundred had been more or less wounded. Immediately on the receipt of this intelligence by the Government the Commander of the Forces was communi cated with, and orders were at once given to forward on to Burrangong detachments of the 12th Regiment, of the Artillery, of mounted and foot police, and of blue jackets from H.M.S. Fawn (whose services were offered by Captain Kater), the various detachments amounting to 225 men, which, with the police of the district, will give a total effective force of 280 men. Arrangements were made with the mail contractors to carry up to Goulburn in twenty four hours fifty men per diem for such period as the • Government may require'. At Goulburn, the inhabitants have nobly come forward, and placed every means of con veyance in their possession, with horses and all requisites, at the disposal of the Government for the conveyance of troops and police, and no time will consequently be lost in forwarding them on from Goulburn to LamEing Flat. On Wednesday, a first detachment of infantry, artillery, and police left Sydney by rail, and was followed on the fol lowing day by 75 blue jackets, under Capt. Kater. • In the meantime, the Burrangong Gold-fields remain in disputably in the hands of the rioters. All those who have property to lose are leaving them as fast as they possibly can; the managers of the branches of the three banks esta blished there having come into Yass on Wednesday, 17th, for security, bringing with them 4,500 ounces of gold. No attack has been made upon_the stores, though they had all been searched for arms and ammunition. Nothing else had been taken, as the leaders who now prominently direct every movement declare that they will not allow robbery. Business of every kind is suspended on the ground, and there appears to be a general impression that the rioters have determined upon holding out to the last. THE PRUSSI4.II 7 _REVIEWS. A letter from Cologne, dated Sept. 21, says :—I cannot resist sending you a few lines to tell you of the extraordinary kindness and civility which have been shown to the English officers attending the manceuvres. It is really impossible to give you an adequate notion of the kindness shown us, and of the hospitality with which we are treated —every thing, too, done in such a simple, unpretending manner, as if, indeed, it were all a matter of course, and there were nothing unusual or remarkable about it. The number of foreign officers attending these manceuvres is about 100. Almost all nations find their representatives, indeed the Kingdom of Italy is the only country of importance conspicuous by its absence. Shall I add the Federal portion of the disunited States ? But if the North is absent, the South is represented by two gentlemen from Virginia, who are here to learn the art of war, which I guess they intend shortly putting in practice against the Nor therns. Yesterday a strange looking person appeared in a black sheepskin busby, and dark cloth dressing-gown, a Circassian, aide-de camp to General Bariatinski. Misfortune cannot indeed make stranger bedfellows than do these Prussian manoeuvres ; for the Austrian General Baumgarten finds himself in daily contact with the French General Forey, his recent opponent at Mon tebello, and the other night I saw Prince Windi schratz, an Austrian officer in full uniform, drive off in a fiacre between two French Generals, looking very much as if he were a prisoner of war being walked off between his captors. Well, all these foreign officers (we are 18 English) are lodged, feasted, and carried about in special trains and all manner of carriages, as well as moun ted on the King's and regimental horses, besides having two officers, Count Blumenthal and Baron Berner specially appointed to look after them, Most of these officers have been sent by their respective Governments, some, like my self, have come on their own hook; all, how ever, are received with the same kindness and hospitality. The best rooms in an hotel have been retained for Lord Clyde, General Eyre, and suite, and it is an understood thing that they are to consider themselves the King's guests during their stay, and never to put their hands into • their pockets—the same applies to all accredited foreign officers. A special train every morning takes us part of the way to the manceuvres, the remainder of the journey being performed in carriages of every possible shape and description, which we find in waiting, which have been collected from all parts, some having come 60 or 80 miles. Of these car riages the r e m us t be at least 100. At the point , where we leave the road we find our horses, which are allotted to us somewhat promiscuously and without that regard to any congruity between their fur n iture and the uniforms of their riders which an ght desire. The animals them artistic eye mi selves are, however, for the most part good and well-behaved, as well they may be, for I am told that they were selected for the foreign officers by picking out the best horses in the different cavalry regiments and putting their worst riders on them as a preparatory test. The manceuvres have been very interesting, but I do not pretend to give you any account of them. The first I saw of the troops was the parade of the Bth Armee Corps before the King, Queen, Princess of Prussia, and princes and grand dukes innumerable, indeed, one daily finds oneself in the midst of a mounted mob of royalty—the Almanac de Gotha a Cheval, as I have heard it called. As far as regards the physique and general appearance of the troops on parade, nothing can be better. The men, though necessarily young, are stout and well built, with, for the most part, intelligent good countenances, which their conduct, evidenced by the low figures of their punishment list, does not belie. Their clothes fit admirably, too well, indeed, in the opinion of one who thinks that a soldier's dress should be made like a sportsman's, loose, and suited to his work as hunter of men. The ranks as they stood in column were wonderfully dressed, every bayonet even covering. Their marching past was excellent as far as steadiness; it was in quick time, about eight paces (116) in the minute quicker than ours. Slow time, that barbarous relic of pigtail days, is quite exploded in the Prussian army, but they are not without an equivalent to it, for in marching past on parade occasions they arc taught to prance, i.e., to bend and raise the knee like a high-stepping cab horse. This in a parade quad ruped is a showy and highly prized and priced qua lity, but the Prussians may, perhaps, some day find it equally costly as applied to bipeds, for it is a most unnatural action, which must take time to acquire, which would be more profitably spent, especially by three-year-old soldiers, in more useful and necessary training, and on the field of battle the result of such waste of time may perchance cost the nation dear. These special parade movements appear to me more over a mistake. Why should parade marching be anything more than ordinary marching done as per fectly as possible P A parade is intended to be an imposing spectacle. It would be made much more so by giving it a p rac ti ca l c h aracter and showing an army in all the perfection of its natural efficiency, instead of forcing men into unnatural attitudes and action. The cavalry look well, and the men ride particularly well ; perhaps a thought too short, though it is the best side to err on ; and even all the infantry officers appear to be at home on horseback. The horses are slight, but have evidently plenty of blood, and are said to stand their work well. Among them I have seen some very pretty chargers. The artillery horses certainly appear too light for their draught, and the pole of the carriage, which hangs down and looks as if made to trip up the wheelers, cannot contribute to their efficiency. There appears to be another serious defect in the construction of the gun carriages —that the wheels of the carriages are smaller than those of the limber, and are neces sarily not interchangeable. Another criticism made upon their batteries is, that they have only four guns in a battery and no ammunition waggons. In war the battery is increased to eight guns, which is more, it is said, than one officer can command, more espe cially in these days of universal concussion shells which artillery authorities say will necessitate the adoption of wider intervals between the guns. An artillery driver takes a long time to make, and I should think he would, unless in constant exercise, get rusty, and when they have to increase the strength of their batteries, it must require time to get them into a thorough state of efficiency. They had four batteries (I think) of breechloading guns. I do not believe they have any advantage over ours, indeed, they are not such business-looking tools as the Armstrong, and in sundry instances the breech gun was seen to stick and cause delay in loading. Their projectile, however—which, like ours, is coated with lead—never strips ; which is more than can be said of ours. This is a defect which can, I believe, be easily remedied. It is, however, a serious one, which should be attended to without delay, as it renders firing over the heads of our own troops dangerous, and, with these long -ranged rifle guns, this practice will probably be more resorted to than heretofore. The breech-loading rifle is now almost entirely the arm of the infantry ; they speak highly of its performances at 600 and 700 yards, and an officer has promised to come to Wimbledon next year with one of their best soldier shots, so that we shall have an opportunity of judging. The needle which ignites the charge passes through the powder, which thus burns backwards towards the breech, and every particle is necessarily ignited and no power wasted. I heard no complaints of the men firing away their ammunition too quickly, and at these manoeuvres, with only 15 or 20 rounds, they never find their supply run short. At a pinch they can fire 5 rounds a minute. I timed them several times, and found they fired volleys at the rate of 1 in 20 to 24 seconds. I was told by an officer that they could fire a volley at cavalry charging at 100 yards, load, and fire a second volley before the troopers could reach the line or square. Their khapsacks look heavy, and appear to hang low ; indeed, as a French officer said to me, " lllais ce qu'il y a de detestable, ce sont leurs sacs." It is, however, only in appearance, for I tried one, and found it extremely comfortable, as it is made to fit the back, and by being attached in front to the waistbelt, on which the cartridge pouches hang, it balances well, and it has the great merit of not cutting the arm, and being so constructed that a man can unaided put it on and off, which strange to say is not the case with ours. The officers all carry a small knapsack, which I likewise tried and found comfortable and well suited fot Volunteers. The greatcoat is worn in a rouleau round the body, passing over the left shoulder and over the knapsack, which prevents its pressing on and keeping the body hot. The worst part of their dress appears to be their boots—short, clumsy-looking wellingtons, which do not show to advantage when the men, as they all doin the field, tuck up the bottom of their trousers in the vain attempt to keep them out of the mud. A soldier without leggings, or loose trousers which do not drag, is a comparatively inefficient animal, for his powers of marching are sadly interfered with by trousers draggling in the mud. The general im pression, I think, produced by these manoeuvres on military men, as regards the Prussian army, is highly favourable to the physique and character of the soldier, but their tactics and formation are not suited to the days of canons rayes and acmes de precision. The men are thoroughly well drilled, they are kept well in hand, and stand their work Well; indeed, I saw none fall out as one might have expected, for they have had long marches, bivouacs in bad nights, and very trashing work. The officers, too, appear to know their duty thoroughly, and to take a pride in their profession ; but, if the Prussian army is to become an efficient shield to Germany, considerable changes will have to be made in their tactics and formation. Attacks in column and for- mation of solid squares will have to be abandoned, _. .....• The artillery will have to be kept more in advance, and its fire more concentrated ; and, above all, the cavalry must not be sent to charge villages strongly occupied by infantry and artillery, as has been seen in the course of these manceuvres. The reasons assigned for retaining column and solid square for- mation is that their — soldiers are young, and that their courage rises by companionship and being kept together in masses, This might be the case until shells such as the Armstrongs, &c., come into use, but in five minutes columns and squares such as these must be utterly annihilated. These are the opinions I have gathered from the various military lookers-on; but, on the other hand, the Prussians say all this would be changed in war. Then, alas ! it will be too late. Changes such as are required cannot be made in the face of the enemy, for in these days of railways and rapid concentration of troops war will be short and decisive, and victory will be with the army that enters the field the most thoroughly prepared. Whatever defects, however, there may be in their infantry and artillery the imp ress i on produced by the cavalry is, I think, highly favourable. Yesterday the manoeuvres were closed by their trotting past, and nothing could look better than the horses and men, in spite of all their hard work and exposure. These manoeuvres must certainly be of great service to the army, as they are, in fact, a short campaign ; and it would be well if we could have something of the same kind in England. The cost of the manoe uvres here is about 500,000 thalers, to which must be added 300,000 thalers for those going on in other parts of Prussia. All damage done to crops is sub mitted to arbitration, a mixed local and military commission going over the ground before and after. What impression has been produced by these manoeuvres on the impressionable race who view the Rhine as their natural boundary it is not for me to 1 say ; but I heard a French officer remark "qui'l y await beacoup de resemblance entre ce peuple et celui de la France, et qu'ils portaient tous la blouse comme chez nous." The King, however, has been well received wherever he has appeared, and patrio tic songs are sung by the Cologne and other choirs to the tune that the Rhine must be defended, Last night our proceedings closed with a general toast drinking and embracing at our last dinner at Disch's Hotel, where all the foreign officers have daily dined at the King's expense, at one fricdrich d'or perhead. It was a curious scene. The Germans showed unmistakably what value they set upon the English alliance, and many were the wishes pri vately expressed that we might always remain " treue Freunde," and much was said of the neces sity of our being so. have - omitted to notice that the average sick, when in barrack, is about one per cent. M. DE MONTALEMBERT ON POLAND. • de Montalembert has spent a consi' part of the summer of this year in visiting Poland, and in obtaining by personal inspection accurate knowledge of her present condition. For him this was a labour of love. M. de Montalembert does not appear now for the first time as the advocate of that unfortunate country, or as the avenger, in so far as the eloquent tongue and the eloquent pen can avenge, a great nation crushed by so cruel an op pression, and abandoned by those in whose cause it had so often given its best blood. His best sliee-ehes were delivered in the Chamber of Peers, while France could yet boast of a free Parliament, on behalf of Poland; and M. de Montalembert may indeed appeal to his long services in that glori ous cause as his claim to be heard once more in its behalf as a writer. He has acquired a consi derable mass of information during his late sojourn in Poland, and he has communicated it to the public in the last number of the Correspondant—a monthly periodical which, as you are aware, one celebrated prosecution and the menace of another have identified with his name. It would be difficult for such a man to treat any topic wittout adorn ing it, and even Poland acquires new interest from a pen like his. Of the actual condition of the Polish people he draws the following picture : " Let the man who knows the Paris of 1861 figure to himself a whole nation N‘ hich dreams neither of amusement nor of money-making. Poland thinks only of her past and her future. She is absorbed by her sorrows and her hopes. In presence of modern civilisation, which looks but to lucre and pleasure, which denies the existence of pain, and which enervates the will, she suffers and she wills. Her suffering is incurable ; her will is invincible. With her all is grave, sad, and sombre. With her everything bears the impress of one in flexib.e determination—that of accepting neither peace, nor prosperity, nor security, and of never leaving either to her masters till justice is done her. That justice is a debt of God ! It will be paid. Cost what it may it will be paid; and until it be paid we will protest, and none shall ever force us to a com promise with iniquity. This is the dominant thought of Poland. It is this which speaks in her looks, in her words, even in every gesture of her children. It is the ever recurring theme in her conversation, in every prayer, in every hymn ; it is found in the chorus of the famous canticle which is heard at this moment in every church and in every - thoroughfare of Poland—' Lord God ! restore to us our country ; restore to us our liberty !' "Meantime her mourning is complete and uni versal. A people gay by temperament, ardent for show and pleasure, now totally refrain from them. Theatres are abandoned, gardens deserted, public and private festivities suppressed. The dance, of all pastimes the most popular among the Poles, as among the Hungarians and the Spaniards, is strictly prohibited, even in the interior of families. Every woman dresses from head to foot in black. They who so much love ornament, and for which they are so well formed, have unanimously renounced every colour but that of mourning. For the last six months the practice has been adopted from one end of Poland to the other, in sign of reprobation and indignation, but also as a pledge of union and reconciliation. The parties which once divided Poland are now but one ; all differences are sus pended, forgotten, of lie hidden beneath the funeral habiliments of the common country. No prohibi tion, no violence, no cruelty even (and several acts of cruelty have been committed against persons wearing mourning met by the Russian soldiers in the streets) can put a stop to this terrible and mute declaration of war." " The churches resound with the music of mournful chants, mingled with aspi rations for a happy resurrection. The words of the verse of the old Litany, From pestilence, fire, and war, deliver us, Lord,' have been changed; they are now From pestilence, fire, and Muscovite servi tude, deliver us, Lord.' " " I have heard and admired," says M. de Monta lem bert,— " All the masterpieces of religious or profane music, ancient or modern, but neither the boasted marvels of the Sixtine Chapel nor the enchanting harmonies of Gluck or Beethoven have ever affected me so much as that chant inspired by the argent inspiration of faith, of sorrow, and of patriotism, and which penetrates the deep mysteries of all. Every time those truly celestial sounds struck my ear, whether in the fall choir or in a modest village chureh, when the organ alternated with the voice of the peasant, or when the tremulous voice of child hood or the sweet accents of the youthful maiden were heard in a lone garden or by the hearth stone, that melody seemed to me like something l i superhuman. Never were imploring accents expressed in sweeter, more searching, and more passionate modulations. I pity the man who could hear them without his heart thrilling with anguish and his eye being wet with tears as the plaintive notes rise and fall in a cadence each time and more pathetic, until the closing invocation is heard in an irresistible burst of anguish and of love. But what must be the feelings of those who have heard it rush forth, like a torrent of fire, from the lips of twenty thousand, of fifty thousand Chris tians at the same moment, standing up, unarmed, before their bewildered oppressors—of multitudes determined not to combat but to die, and breathing in the agony of death, and with their last sigh, a defiance and a protest—this irresistible appeal to the avenging Omnipotence of Heaven ! it is at once the cry of a soul and the cry of a nation, both bowed down beneath the bitterest of griefs, and both inflamed by the most fervent faith. It is the cry of anguish and of confidence, of reproach an d _ _ _ of tenderness, which would force itself through the vault of Heaven for eternal justice and pity to descend." This," adds M. de Montalembert, after giving a literal translation of the hymn, " Boze eos polske" which now triumphs over all opposition, and which is heard in every church and in every public place in Poland,— "This, then, is the Marseillaise of these singular revolutionists ! It shows in what the cause of Poland differs, and in what it always has differed, from the cause of revolution throughout the rest of Europe." M. de Montalembert affirms that Poland has never yet for one moment become reconciled to her servitude. What she demanded in 183'), in 1815, in 1791, she now demands ; she is resolved to get it; and she is convinced that she will get it, doubt• less by other means than at these periods, but _ _ with the same resolution and the same unanimity. " What other nation in the modern world," he asks, "is in the same condition ? What remains to the Frence of 1789 of her ideal of justice, of progress and liberty, of her generous aspirations, of her youthful and candid ardour in pursuit of good, of her simple confidence in right, in liberty, in rea son,* t in Parliaments, in the all-suffic ie n t force of reasoning ? What retains to E. and powerful policy which, with all ber . safisLtness, had so justly won c{, admira:ion of the world—whi c h, witMeans:eite, eloquence of Burke, and the firm and resistltss hand of Pitt, seemed to h. - .ve implanted for everin every guglish heart the eternal distinction between. revolution and liberty ? What remains to Ger many of the memorable union of her princes end her people in 1813 —of the immense and glorious movement 'which raised them up as one man against a foreign conquero7 ? What remains to North America of the institutions and ideas which had so long accustomed us to seek on her soil the ideal' of the future? Nothing, alas ! or almost nothine ?" eu- 1 Casting a glance nea rer home, AI. d e M onta l bert observes : " When one comes frown a country where great minds exercise themselves, now in demonstrating that the right of force is identical with f orce ,f r i y h t, an d now in quoting fl Ta.cittis and Cor n Mlle the apology of Cie ; when we cor y, from a country where such things find a public and official encouragement; where the litterateurs, de corated and undecorated, who direct the greater part of the press, where all those proud champions of liberty of thought, are unanimous in proelainsing,•, as a patriotic exploit the act of the general whom they congratulate on having applied, morally, two slaps on the face to an ecclesiastic ; when we get out of that footed atmosphere into a pure air, we experience an unspeakable -relief on finding honest people even in servitude to a despotism which they have neitherereated, nor accepted, nor merited. " What revolts, discourages, and frightens the honest mind .in the time we live in is not" the triumph of roguery or violence ; the history of the world is full of such pernicious lessons ; but was there ever a period known in which the triumph of 1 evil wag more speedily and more easily accepted ? Was there ever less sympathy for the victim of fortune, more indifference foe unsuccessful courage or for right oppressed, or When the crushing of tho weak by the strong was more quickly ranged among irrevocable facts and invested with the prestige attached to irrevocable judgments ? Hence a doubt which seems legitimate. Assuredly, there have been worse miscreants, and, above all, worse tyrants than those of the present day ; but for suc cessful iniquity and plausible tyranny, have they .ever met, with honest men, so much indifference, so much indulgence, and, not to mince the matter, so much approbation ? " Such is not the case with Poland. She has never shown the interested complacency nor the baSe and cowardly servility of the flatterers of success. Poland has profited by no iniquity ; she has made I no compact with lying. To those who sought to corrupt her, to turn her to account, or to repress her, she has always repeated the energetic and reso lute No !' which neither Kings nor people dare any longer to repeat to triumphant iniquity. National independence is an inestimable blessing, but is there not a blessing still more precious and more sacred, and the loss of which is more irreparable ? Is it not national morality? To lose one's nationality is indeed a dire calamity. But one may conceive, and may even undergo sacrifices still more painful, and above all more disgraceful. There is still some thing worse than to be conquered and enslaved by the foreigner—it is to spontaneously abdicate liberty, truth, and honour, in order to serve false ' hood and crime. Some pages written three cen turies ago, and entitled Voluntary Servitude,' have made the name of Boetius immortal. What he stigmatised as the worst of humiliations has been again found, and will again be found, in the history of nations, as in that of minds. But the history of Poland presents a glorious exception. Upon her can be found no such stigma." M. de Montalembert pays a noble tribute to the memory of Prince Adam Czartoryski; and expresses full confidence in the future of a country which can produce men of such a stamp. He recalls with. pride the protests of the French Parliaments in which he himself took so large a part, in favour of Poland. "We did not fail in our duty," he says, " When we solemnly protested, aided by a publi city the most sincere and most complete that ever existed, for right against force; when we straggled against indifference and forgetfulness ; when we cherished the sacred flame of honest indignation ; when we prevented the establishment of prescri; - tion for the advantage of iniquity. In spite . of the contemptuous disdain which the press of the ante chamber now affects towards us, we have nothing to regret. The famous words, 'Polish nationality will not perish,' heard 30 years ago from a constitutional throne, are now more than ever a truth. Those words, which I then repeated with the ardent inex perience of youth, I now again repeat with the rooted conviction of ripe age. Yes, Poland will have another birth. She has twice lived already. She has disclosed to the world her existence by a moral victory, of which her own history, of which contemporaneous history does not present a second. example. The events of Warsaw are as a battle won. I understand the mowing which I have every where seen; but it is not the victims, but the vic tors who are wept for. Poland will again live by them, and like them ; let her continue to be herself. Let her imitate no one. Let her put her trust neither in orators nor in Ceesars. Let her do nothing to forfeit the sympathy of honest men, of Christian people. That sympathy may be often, and even long, powerless.; but the cause which has it not is con demned to perish ignominously. Hail, then, cherished and noble Poland! If God prolong your trial, it is to render you worthy of a glorious eman cipation. Hail, Niobe of nations! Salvation and hope be yours, the undying type of right, of inno cence, of misfortune, but also of power—of moral power—of the only power which merits to be served and admired here below !"

One was bland and for bearing, seldom or never h av i ng recourse to the exercise of di s cipline in its roughest form. The other was firra;hasty, and a warm upholder of the rights of the rod. The PAiffer mace was soon noted by the boys, and the two were appro priately known as the flog itfig and the thrashfr Mill.
