The effects, of civilisation, which have spread far and wide fr om Europe to the remotest parts of the world, have not ^iled, in spite of ancient prejudices, to penetrate gradually Turkish Empire, and it is not too much to say that a complete revolution in the ,manners and customs of Ottoman bjects is rapidly progressing, and that but a short time will : i aPse before Turkey and its popidation will enjoy the advau 'ages of European institutions. project now submitted to the public has been for some ;' , ree under the consideration of leading and influential parties ?Constantinople. Turkey :has hitherto been, and still is, ''"Prived of many useful and even necessary provisions for t ie comfort and ornament of its numerous cities, not except- I ng the capital itself. Forem ,. st amongst its most urgent re 'll'irernerits must be placed the adoption of Gas, now wholly Ileknown there ; and it 'has been ascertained that the intro 7duction of this admirable and economical mode orpublic and Private lighting will be hailed as a boon:by all Classes of the p,Pulation,_ from the "lowest up to its high-minded and en ghtened Sovereign, under whose immediate patronage it is Pretosed to place the present undertaking. The Ottoman Empire affords a wide scope for the opera -14 i .," of this Company, as the following facts will demonstrate. Lonstantinople has a mixed population of Niussulmans, Qua— '"•tio, Greeks, Armenians, &c., approaching a million of i'Qls; it contains a large number of palaces and public fees The The Sultan alone has several immense palaces ; the I t itl blime Porte, where the Government affairs are carried on, : sl. !lis of itself a small city ; there are also extensive barracks, Cueges, manufactories, cafés, theatres, club-houses, and other nes of public entertainment, several hundred mosques and „7 4 -bouses, a large number of which, for the comfort and venicnce of the inhabitants, are kept open during the ,7 11 l iole night, ai the time most suitable for the enjoyment of M itt'oriental luxury. Steps have been taken to procure from the Sultan of Tur n' a firman or concession, securing to this Company for a . 3 TX of years the exclusive privilege of supplying with gas all „Teecwithin the sovereignty and dominions of the Turkish "mAire.

We here allude to Messrs. Dutarry's celebrated P.eval..nta Arabica Food, which besides being a delicious article of general diet, effects speedy and' perfect restoration to health in ea •es where long and expensive courses of medicine have previonsly been tried in vain. Amongst t: o maladies in which it effects a complete and speedy cure. are dyspepsia (in- 1 digestion), constipation, functional irregularity, obstruc tions, acidity, cramps; tits, heartburn, diarrlicea, nervous- I ness, biliousness, affections of . the liver and kidneys. fin tulency, distension, palpitation of the heart, nervous headache, deafness, noises in the head and ears, giddiness;pains be tween the shoulders, and in almost every part. of the body, chronic, inflammation and ulceration of the sto ach, erup tions en the skin, scurvy, fever, scrofula, impurities, poverty of blood, consumption (if not beyond human aid), dropsy, rheumatism, gout, influenza, grippe, nausea, and vomiting during pregnancy, 'after eating, or at sea, low spirits, spleen, g eneral debW.ty, paralysis, cough, asthma., tightness across tke e memory,dislik e to society, unfit ness f or stu d y, delu sions,vertigo, blood t o th e h ea d , exhaus tion, melancholy, groundless fear, e. indecision, wretchedness, upwards sof fifty thousandthoughts destruction, szduala, any one of whom can b e Personally referred to, have come forward to express th e i r titude to Messrs.

But we shall take an instance) or two at random. Mrs. Maria Jolly, of Wortham Ling, Nor folk, writes : " For 50 years I had suffered indescribable agony front dyspepsia, nervousness, asthma, cough, flatulency, spasms, sickness at the stomach, and copious vomitinga." She was crippled through weakness and infirmity, and she adds, " My Suffari ngs were so awful (from flatulency, die.), that I have many a time prayed for death as a happy deliverance." This sufferer, "to the astonishment of all her friends," was restored to health and sound sleep by the use of the food ; and she states that since her recovery she had tried it with similar happy effects upon " a little grl of seven years of age, who had been suffering fearfully from an eruption of the skim, large white lumps, itching, dreadfully, and making her cry from pain." Miss Elizabeth Yeoman, of Gitoacre, near Liverpool, testifies to a similar cure of " ten years' dyspepsia and ne,rvonsirritability, which had rendered life a perfect bur den to her,""and f a. which she had vainly tried " the best me dical adViee, bleeding and blistering, and an astonishing amount ofdrigs " In infancy, as iu maturity and old age, the same ':unvarying and unfailing effect is prod need, and it is but fair to acknowledge that, bythe introduction of this food,M essrs.

Tho papers relating to the fall of Kars are now before - the public. We will take no credit, be cause they confirm all that has been :asserted long sinclEfin these. Columns, for the facts were by no means secret, and might hare been known by any one desirous of discovering and speaking the truth. It is enough to say that no Eratements of ours have given any adequate notionof the scandal which" is now revealed to the world. The silence of those who would have been, most properly, (..caer,to de fend the British Ambassado r , had defence c ' been possible, must have prepared ever y one f or th e gravity of the facts. Yet Since the papers have appeared surprise at the proceedings disclosed has been the general feeling. It maybe stated once more that the present Sir W. Williams was, after tic, defeats of the Turkish army in 1851, appoieted by Lord Clarendon Com mssiener foe the British Gevernment to the Coal wander-in-Chief in Asia. According to general testimony, the Foreign office made a viisiteiselection. General Williams had been engaged in the settle ment of the Turco-Persian frontier • be was ac qtrainted with the country t.J which he wee sent, and that he knew how to deal with its people the history of the subsequent eventful siege has proved. In what circumstances and from what causes diteen sion sprang up between him and Lord Stratford de Redcliffe we care not to inquire ; that General Wil liams was disliked by his Ambassador there is reason to know, and 'this dislike, expressed on more than one occasion, we may he sure was not long in reaching Turkish ears. . General - Williams made Way to the seat of war. He went unannounced, unaccredited, to a camp where he was looked upon as an enemy and a spy. After the formal honour • ' of a reception was over, he had soon a proof of the light in which lie was regarded by the chiefs of the army which lie came to save. Every Pasha plums dered, and was ready to insult and threaten the only man who could put an end to his misdoings. What the state of the army was may be learnt from a few facts :—From 10,000 to 12,000 men had perished or dem ted in a few months. In the middle of October the army was only 1 4.000,strong, but rations were drawn for 27,000. Towards the end of the month the Muster drew rations for 33,000, without any real increase of force. Pay was 20 months in arrear. The men were without shoes, there was scarcely any ammunition, and the arms of all kinds were nearly unfit for use. Whit was the course of General Williams ? He advised, remonstrated, and threatened the intervention of his Ambassador. By every post he wrote to him ; by every post he made suggestions and asked as sistance. But no answer came. It is easy to see that the Turks observe I the manner in which the Commissioner's representations were treated. They ha I seen that he had come among them nnhononretl by the representative of his country, and that now, as months rolled away, no notice was taken of his entreaties and suggestions. It did not require their habitual keenness iu such matters to discern that the Commissioner. was unacceptable to the Ambassador, and might be neglected with impunity. Perhap: there was not wanting tidings to the same effect from acquaintances at Stamboul. If only the position of a single man had been at stake, the Ambassador's conduct, however indecorous and unkind, would have been less censurable ; but the consequences in the pre sent case were unhappily felt long after, when the ragged. soldiers per shed of hunger by the thousand in Kars, and three days' ammunition were for a month all that the defenders had with which to resist an attack from an enemy happily unconscious of their weakness, At last the patience of General Williams was worn out. The Turks, it appears, had even re fused to call on the officers of his staff, thus evinc ing their contempt for bins and his office. One Pasha had told him plainly that his interference would not he allowed. Whit must have been .his feelings when from that distant region, froM the midst of that den of iniquity and suffering, he wrote the following lines to the Ambassador?— " With the exception of one letter,"- he says, " I have not been favoured with a line from your Ex cellency, even with an acknowledgment of the re ception of my public or private communications. By ono who has served your lordship for so many yeirs this avowal can only be recordesi with facil ities of deep disappointment and mortification— feelings which I have studiously endeavoured to conosal even from my aides-decamp and secre taries, bec suse cash successive post was Anxiously looked fee ie the hope of receiving answers from your lordship." Fifty-four despatches, each ac companied by a private letter, had up to this date, Bth December, been in vain written. As in duty hound, General Williams transmitted a copy of this letter to the Foreign-onlee. And here we must do justice to the honesty end activity of Lord Clarendon. He had from t ha • Logi nni lig urged Lord Stratford t o support General William s an d his can e to the utmost, and many were the de spatches transmitted on this subject at a time when the expedition to the Crimea might seem enough to occupy a Minist rat home. He now addresses th e A m b assa d or i n a tone which we can only suppose that such a man would have borne because he felt it to be deserve:l. " It would seem that your Excellency has not taken any notice of Brigadier-General Williams." ""Her Mejisty's Government desire to receive your Excellency's observations on the despatch of Genet al Williams, which I need hardy say has been read by them with great regret, after the anxiety they have in vain addreseed, through your Excellency, to the Porte." Ler(' Cla.renion then demands who her General Williams had been o ffi c i a lly r ee ,,gui. F .ed by the Porte, and requests a copy of the f i ee ern !lit. It ive , , efcearee, ueL forth comine, as it had no existence. lu an saver, the Ambassador is obliged to Lionfees that he had !levee ob , ained it, cohceiving that it was not wanted, f e w wit of the Geller:Xs-54. de though proba' fly snatches filed to men'ion the s!ighte suffered by the writer from the wilful neglect of the Amb sedor. Lord Clarendon concludes, "Your EXcel lency will understand that heaMejosty's Govern ment require to be furnished will a full and do tailed repret of everything that has passed between the Fent) tssy and the Porte, in compliance with the instructions that so frequently, but in vain hate been addressed to your Excsl!ency." This is certainly a despatch which has had few parallels in British official literature ; but its tone was perhaps streegthened by another missive from General Williams to the Foreign-office, announcing that he had now written 62 despatches, and never had one word in reply. Now for the Ambassador's defence. It is con tained in a despatch to Lord Clarendon dated the 28th of December. This document is composed with much care, and the writer evidently employs all the res. , urn- a of his literary style. General Williams had hen writing to him for three months, and never had an answer ; but, because the Gt3fleriti COM pla;BS, Lord. Stratford conside,.s himself " en, titlei to remark on the hasty maqner " in which General Williams had " rushed t ) the conclusion, that I gave him no support." Tee Ambassador is " not at all inclined to depreci tee the somewhat " voluminonacorrespondence which contains the result of his researches and remonstrances." Of course, the gist of the defence is that, although the Ambassador had taken no notice of General Wil liams, he had done everything that had been re quested. Into thisquestion WOO - al:lna enteratpreseus, but we believe the plea to be totally without foun dation ; the fact is perfectly plain that General Williams's wants were not supplied, and if even under the pressure of Lord Clarendon's despatches a few suggestions were made to the Porte, yet there is, as every one acquainted with the East knows a wide difference between a formal and an earnest re - presentation. If everything was not effected, it wa s , says Lord Stratford, the fault of the Turkish Mi nisters. He regrets the little progress made, "but," continues his Excellency, in his happiest diction, " the well known proverb which contrasts the faci lity of bringing a horse to water with the impossi bility of forcing him to drink is no less true at Con- ' stantinople than in London or Paris. Unfortunately, too, the horses whose reluctance I have to over come are not without circumstances to excuse, though not entirely to justify, the slowness of their pace." Then follows a comparison between the Turkey of to-day and the England of past times in respect to corruption. " Have we never heard of Bacon or Marlborough ? Are not the denunciations of Burke ringing inour earst" Lord Stratford issorry for Turkish indolence. " But can I wonder ? No !' It may be some gratification to our countrymen to find their language wielded with such poweseby our military and diplomatic authorities in the East, but in a case like this a little more attention to details would have been satisfactory. The con cluding sentence of the despatch will give a notion of the trustworthiness of his Excellency's general defence. He alleges two reasons for not writing—first, that ho had intended to give one long answer to the 124 despatches and letters ; secondly, that, though he thought sometimes of writing, the unpunctuality of the Trehizonde packet prevented bins. This, packet leaves the Bosphorus . every week, tied, though sometimes she msl47 b. diz/- l'ayed '24 hour: , , every one else could, and did width.' Lord Stratford must indeed presume on the igno . - ranee of us at home whew lie makes..so boldly falht cions an excuse. If anything ware necessary to con vince the.world that what is alleged agaiust him - is true, it would be that he has recourse to such a mis-states lent..

DUBLIN, TuesDAY MORNING. THE MURDER OF MR. CALLAGHAN. The following outline of the proceedings of the coroner's inquest, held on the body of this ill-fitdd gentleman, supplied by the eorresrilndent . of the Eveiiiatg , . Y,;:terday Nonday, theZi of March) Mr. EC.mond K. Lynch. coroner, held aninquest on the body °fide-, ceased. The jery. found a !verdict of murder against some person or persons unknown.' The main facts in the • evidence were, that deceased came to the country from Dublin. on Friday, the '249th biFebruary ; drove with two of his tenants t, a sepeiehal's office near 'Louehrea,''to replevin some cattle or h ' 7 wh ich were seized and. impounded under a &elate ;'that'ltt got back to the parish. pound about 11 o'clock p,m„ took out of the pound one c ,w, which hearid one of his tenants drove towards where he lived, a place' called Badinarnoca ; that he tript, the herd pear his residence, who took charge of the cow,- and accompanied his master to within ten yards of his master's house, when they sep•iitated, and his master bade him good night. Deesa.ged went home, called up his steward and housekeeper ; the latter he told to.teavelis house instanter, adding that it was her.fatuily sued and impounded his cattle, and that he would turn her and them off the land ; it was then hall•oast 12 o'clock on Saturday morning, lst of !starch. The housekeeper caught her clothes up and went out. Deceased went out also, and told the steward to boil the kettle in his absence, and that ho would g., for some mills for tea ; deceased and the woman left the house together, he scolding her until they came to the house of one Michael Quigley, a tenant to Mr. Callaghan. This house was little over 200 yards from deceased's. Here Mr. Callaghan stopped to get milk for his tea the woman turned and stooped under the hedge until Mr; Callaghan had called for the milk and told the woman of the house to bring it to him. Mr. Callaghan then left to return home, when' this yeoman, whom he had jest discharged, emerged from the hedge and went into the house,' Mr. C .11agban did-not go more than 15 to 20 yards from Qu;gtey's house on his way back, when he was struck in the forehead, apparently knocked flat hack, his forehead beaten completely in; the frontal bone separated from the skull, the eyes driven out, and the whole skull shattered to pieces. • The woman of the house had just been up and was opening the door as the housekeeper was en ceririg. They spoke a few words, the latter telling the former she was discharged; &c. Now, it would seem that when they were thus speaking .was the time -Mr. Callaghan was being murdered within 15 or 20 yards of where they stood-yet both women' !wear they heard no noise or sound whatever. The steward, thinking WS master a long time away, took a lantern and went in search of him. The night was dark, and he d6covered lam on the pathway by observing hi:: dog lapping pp what, on looking at, he feund to be his master's blood; Mr. Callaghan. had turned out many tenants ; it ap• pears he eyed turned out the pariah priest. lie was considered a .very tyiannical landlord, and was greatly disliked."

'A numerous and highly respectable meeting of the Associated General Medical Practitioners and Licentiate Apothecaries 'took place last evening at their hall, in Mary-street. , Mr. Readlam's bill form9d the subject of discussion. Several gentle men addressed the meeting, after which a resolu tion strongly condemnatory of the bill in its pre sent state was passed non. con. A petition founded on this resolution is to be drawn up, and placed for presentation in the hands of Mr. Whiteside, its prayer to be supported by tie University and city inviirbers. It is believed that the learned bodies here—namely, the Gillege's of Physicians and Surgeons—are also strenuously oppos:d to the measure. SLIGO BOROUGH ELECTION. Letters from.Sligo ... annoutice the formal with- drawal of all the candidates from the hustings save Wynne aiid•Mr.' Somers, in whom are respec tively personified the Derbyites and Palmerston► Administration. Great efforts, itis.repOrted, were made to induce Mr. Somers to give way to some other Liberal more to the taste of the constituency, but the ex-member was inexorable, and the con test, sayS the Freeman., "will be one between Pal merston:~ nominee and the nominee of the Carlton Club." The odds are altogether in favour of Mr. Wynne. The Roman Catholic clergy keep aloof, and many of the laity of the same persuasion will probably vote for the kind Orange landlord in pre ference to their old representative. THE TIPPERAILY BASK. The docket was lodged in thii case on T.m. , aday, and rho proceedings tinder the Winding-up Acts Nlre to take place in the office of Mister Murphy. The eff.ts of the crash will be soon made apparent, and every day the belief grows stronger that the whole weight . of the responsibilities will devolve upon some half-dozen or more cre:Othy individuals who ha-t the misfortune to be shareholders io the doomed concern. But a few day since Mr. James Sadleir was an object of general sympathy, as people charitably supposed that he •was the vic tim. of, rather than accessory to, his brother's frauds. The revelations in the Rolls' Court on Tuesday have, however, completely turned the tide of' popular feeling ; and fir years to c-me Sidleirs' :Bank will be only remembered as one of the p!'igue spts in this Irish social system. T- GARDEN' TH EA T 1: E. H t , r M a joo,y, sharing in the ~ y mpatity which pervaded all cl.tys , ,,, at the demtru,tion of Gwent-garden Theltae, vi•ittl-rhe yet smr,king ruins yesterday aittrnneo. Mr. ';ye arrived in Lindon at six o'clock yesterday incro:ow, having left Paris on the prcv:ons day as early as practicable after receipt of the sad - intelligence. Re drove direct to the theatre, and a!ts.r inFipecting the ruins of hi: property proceeded with great energy to in ariangenientm which should provide for irnor,di. ate continriteie., and lead up to measures tat in ail probahility will preserve to the public the lyric t...raioa, the apparently irreparable loss of which had crested so univtrial a regret. Whole tlius.enga . ;ed an intimation ref4elle..l 11 r. Gye of her M:+jest)'s gracious intention to vi3Ot and inspect ail tbat remained of the theatr4 - 4, and dueli preparations as were necessary for the royal receilion were hailily made. At half-past 3 o'clock her Majesty arrived at the Princes-place entrance, by which she had so of;en visited the theatre under happier auTices. Mr. Gye was im mediately in atteudanc", and proesedal pay the last melancholy honours of the house by ushering her Ma jesty to the door immediately next to the royal Lotrance, where a few. boar.ls and broken doors being laid down over the yet warm ember?, and a drugget spread upon them, afrqcleci her Majesty an opportnnity of advanc:ng in ' , nutty a ehort distance Into the interior, and viewing at one coup dce;l the colosml ruins of the amphitheatre and the vast mass of prop,rty buriel within its circum ference. The Queen, resting her hand on Mr. Gye'e arm, ex pressed in terms of natural and gracious sympathy the pain she, felt at Mr. Gye'is great personal losses, of which she considerately inquired the amount, while she alle viated them by a neyal expression of her sense of the praise ver by exertions he had made in elevating the lyric drama to the height it bad attained in this country. The Queea entered the theatre by a small archway which brought her to what was formerly known as the Piazza entrance. Ascending over the debris of the stair ca e leadinke to the Bed ford entrance, her Majesty came upon the brink of the abyss looking down upon the pit. A solemn stillness pervaded all around. The vast area --the lofty • walls—still preserving their architectural grandeur—the amphitheatrical form and the defined courses formerly supporting the pit, almost realised the effect of .the Coliseum. Her Majesty stood for some moments in silent and apparently regretful contempla tion of the scene, interrupted only by the occasional snapping of the beams under the heat of the fire,--the splashing of falling water, and the singular epectecle presented by the many still burning niches in various parts of the house. Upon the retirement of her Majesty Mr. Gye Lai the honour of handing up the Princess Royal to the same point of view, and subsequently Lady Churchill, Lady in-Waiting to her Majesty. After repeating the kind and gracious expression of her feelings the Queen took her departure. His Royal Highness Prince Albert shortly after ar rived from Somereet House, and was conducted over the ruins by Mr. Gye. The public will bear with great eatiefaction that th unrivalled troupe of artistes which Mr. Gye has brought together for the present season will not be scattered by this misfortune. This is certain. What the nature of the arrangements way be is not yet sufficiently defined for us to announce, but it is unquestionable that London will not be without its opera this season, and that under the management of Mr. Gye, who has received letters of sympathy, and offers of assistance, of the most generous nature, from the highest quarters. The walls of the theatre have been pronounced unsafe, and are in proceSs of demolition. Is is believed that all the persons respecting whoSe safety anxieties - had been felt have now been found safe.

HOSKYKS read a paper on " The Pro gress of English Agriculture during the last fifteen years," giving a review of the subject for the last cen tury. • Coining to recent times, he remarked that four distinct elements of new resource opened to view about the ysar IS-10—viz., the introduction of the use of guano, the • publication of the works of Liebig, the establishment of the Royal Agricultural Society, and the introduction of an improved sy-tern of drain age. He then proceeded to notice the objections urged against the use of guano, and the great value of the works of Liebig i.i removing those objections, and neat adverted to the influence of the' 1193 al Agricultural So ciety in encouraging op-janitors.; mechanics ; and la-dly, he referred to drainage., In relation to the last suiject, he urged the necessity of increaA attention to that branch, ilnitending that money laid out in drainage of land would pay 10 and 20 par cent. upon the outlay. After p iintinz out the necessity for a more perfect system of agricultaral statistic , , he concluded by obscrvir.g that had he needed a convincing attestston, that in the threefold eharauter of fa , m•og, as an "art," a "manufacture," and a "nommtree," and he would add, an "cdueltion," it would he found in the fact that it , interest and progress were felt as among the highest obj as of the highest minds. Some disco sion then took place, in which Mr. Laws, Mr. Heson, Mr. Inflame, and other gentlemen Lock I art. Prii.ce ALBERT, in moving a vote of thanks to Mr. Hoskyns, said he felt he was el l y carrying out then Riche: of the meeting. " Mr. Ilost:yos had given a very succinct history of the progress of agriculture in that peculiarly agreeable style which was ta , piliar to every one who had read his amusing and valuable work, "The chronicle of the Clay Farm." He had not only interested and amused them for the hour, but he had given them much to think on ; ami if he had taught any one lesson of greater iruporianvethan another, it was that the future prN•rcss of a.grirulture would 1113:tely depend - noon the close and intimate union, :yid the hearty co operation of scifox", art, nianufacture, and commerce, 7 , ad that the primary condition of a FUCCil4Sitii pi ogress fOr the future would be the obtaining . of rec::rate and complete azeicultural statistic .• He hoped he was not trespassing in a•king every one of those present in his particular circle to contribute his mite in obtaining toeso statistics which were so much Wanted. and which Go vernment was now tryiur to collect. He would merely rvcat the thanks of the raetiug to dr. Hoeliyns for his very intereating lecture. Mr. 110SKYNS briefly acknowleiged the compliment, and the pnceeihrgs terminated.. poring Intelligence. TATTERSALL'S, TuunsuAr. Very litt:e business was tramacted.
