SELF -PRESERVATION.—A popular Essay on Nervous and Physical Debility, resulting from injurious habits contracted in youth, or excesses in maturity, which, by prematurely exhausting the functions of Manhood, de stroy the happiness of Married Life or prevent the fulfil ment of engagements which constitute the most cherished objects of existence. By Dr. LA'AIERT, 37, Bedford-square, London. Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh; Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, &c. The above work contains moat useful and interesting information on the physiological changes which occur in the Reproductive System during the periods of youth, puberty, and manhood ; and on the due attainment of that degree of functional vigour upon which the hopes of posterity depend. It also points out how all the attributes of Man hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they are lost, and how they can be recovered. It is free from the gross exaggerations, alarming descriptions, and dangerous remedies so generally resorted to by persons, who, prac tising with false medical qualifications, inflict most serious injuries, and render judicious treatment frequently abortive. The Author is the only legally qualified practitioner whose name stands on the Medical Register (the only true test of medical qualification), who has been exclu sively engaged for a series of years in the treatment of the various functional disorders of the nervous and reproductive system, which, owing to the great discoveries of modern science, are rendered subservient to a rational, simple, and easy mode of treatment.

Gn : y Dr.C u u tp lverw g oetll that medicalconsulted ( practi tioner(only name,) ib9Ve,) A writer in a contemporary says :—All the pub lished accounts of the disaster now in process of investigation bear upon the face of them the fact, that the Great Eastern ran into the vortex of a cir cular storm, or cyclone; and the "strong gale only" which the Canada experienced, very far from being an extraordinary circumstance, is exactly the weather a vessel ought to have met with, travelling on or near the outer circle of the same storm. Now, the laws of these hurricanes have been laid down and clearly defined. Their approach, their track, and the other phenomena connected with them are ascertainable by barometrical and other indications, which warn the sailor of his danger, and enable him to avoid it, if he be not too ignorant or too careless to profit by them. Messrs. Reid, Thom, Piddington, and others have devoted the labours of years to the investigation of this branch of meteorological knowledge ; and Piddington's work on the " Law of Storms," the sailor's horn book (the study of which ought to bo compulsory on the captain of every ship in the British navy), has brought this science within the comprehension of the commonest seaman who is able to read. had the commander of the Great Eastern been practi cally acquainted with the law of storms, as there laid down, she would have reached her destination (as far as the disaster which prevented her is con cerned) in perfect safety ; for he would not have ateered her into the centre of a storm, whose ap proach was anticipated and direction known. And, I will add, that had she been altogether lost—as at one time seemed too probable—she would have gone down a sacrifice, with the lives of all on board, to that fatuous adherence to routine and repugnance to study a (comparatively) new science, to which we have already sacrificed so many thousands of vic tims, in our mercantile navy. Yet it is evident that an acquaintance with the laws of storms—directly it is shown that those laws lie within the sphere of knowledge—ought to be an integral part of every sailor's educa tion. If Norie s " Navigation" is made an indis pensable text book in nautical examinations, why should not a practical kno w l e d ge o f the works of such authors as those above named be absolutely required ? It is not merely loss of property which is involved in this question, but the preservation of human life. In conclusion, let me ask the shareholders of the Great Eastern whether, the next time she puts to sea, they will allow her to do so furnished with every scientific appliance, and provision against danger such as she has encountered, except an adequate knowledge how to steer clear of it ? If so, let them look to it ; for, in spite of new paddle wheels, a worse thing will certainly befal them than a disaster from which, considering the magnitude of the peril, they may be said to have come off cheaply; and the next time the Great Eastern is caught in a cyclone, not a soul may escape alive to tell the tale.

Lord of the Manor (having Juliet, Shillelagh, ' Miss Julia, and East Sheen in close attendance upon him) took a slight lead, and in this order they ran to the half distance, where Juliet drew up to Lord of the Manor, and within a few strides of the chair closed with him, and the two running gamely to the end, made a dead heat of it.

ATTACK UPON THE POLICE. The anniversary of Guido's diabolical plot has annually called forth some feeling of excitement on the part of the inhabitants of this usually quiet country town and the adjacent hamlet of Moulsham. This ,year, however, either through the gradual dying out of the enthusiasm of those who have usually supplied the funds for the fireworks and bonfires, or from some other cause, the youths and men who generally figure prominently in the de monstration were thrown upon their own resources, for the accustomed aid from the inhabitants was not forthcoming. It was determined however, by the usual performers in the displays that their wonted customshould isot , die• for want of an effort on their part. Accordingly, a movement was organised for an assembly in the High -street during the evening, and it was whispered that some casks would be " borrowed" from the back premises of one of the grocers, and duly trans ferred into tar barrels. Accordingly, the evening was ushered in by the appearance of individuals, effec tually disguised, wending their way to the appointed rendezvous, and by the somewhat unusual spectacle of half a score of police constables parading the main thoroughfare. At 8 o'clock the roadway was taken possession of by about 30 or 40 of the first named persons, who marched in a compact body from one end of the town to the other, armed with formidable bludgeons. They were preceded and fol lowed by a great crowd, and paid visits to the shops of some of the tradesmen for the purpose of solicit ing contributions to a tar-barrel fund. Later on the concourse increased, and the people became more excited. The police also appeared in stronger force. Between 9 and 10 o'clock the explosions of gunpow der became loud and frequent, to the annoyance and danger of foot passengers and horses. Soon after this barrels were openly rolled along the streets under the eyes of the police, who, however, did not interfere until about 10 o'clock, when an attempt was made by the superintendent of the county con stabulary toirestore the town to something like order by bringing about 20 constables to clear the street. The feelings of the mob, however, was now too ex cited to be put down by so inadequate a force. The police were hustled, pushed, and jostled about in the roughest manner. The bludgeons spoken of were wielded with damaging effect, and stones hurled in all directions. Several of the police were struck ; ohe man, it is reported, having lost the use of an eye, and the superintendent received a fearful blow on the head and a severe bruise on the side. After two or three ineffectual attempts to drive the crowd before them the police were so overpowered by numbers that they were ordered to discontinue the attempt. The mob, thus left comparatively to themselves, seemed to take fresh strength, and con ducted themselves in a most uproarious manner. Stones again flew thicker and faster than ever, breaking many windows in the Shire Hall, Corn Exchange, and in the upper rooms of the shops in the High-street. The damage thus caused is esti mated at a considerable sum, and a solicitor of the town yesterday morning offered a reward of £5 for the apprehension of the parties who destroyed two valuable squares of plate glass on his premises. While this was going on in the High -street the in habitants of the New London-road were alarmed by seeing a large crowd assembling around an im mense bonfire in the centre of the road, immediately contiguous to a row of dwelling-houses, and it was at one time feared that the roofs might be sot on fire ,by the shower of sparks proceeding from it. This, however, did not occur, and after a time the flames gradually burned out, while the mob amused themselves by breaking almost every pane of glass in the vicinity. London : H.

The civil pageant of Saturday next, Lord Mayor's Day will not differ materially from that of last year. The chief magistrate and the sheriffs are understood to have had the subject recently under their con sideration as to how far, if at all, it might be desir able to alter the character of the procession, and to have come to the conclusion that they would scarcely be justified in introducing any essential change into a thing - which has been handed down from a remote age, and which derives much of its interest in the popular estimation from its antiquity and even from features in it which in these days are regarded as bordering on the grotesque. Oar old friends, the men in armour, therefore, are to be resuscitated for the occasion, and to play their accustomed part in the pageant. All the ancient livery companies will also be extensively represented by members of them carrying banners and heraldic devices; especially the wealthy company of Fishmongers, to which the Lord Mayor belongs. The London Rifle Bri gade, preceded by their band, will take a conspicu ous part in the procession, and several other mili tary bands, placed at i n t erva l s , are t o accompan y it. It is understood that the equipages of the Sheriffs will be more than ordinarily attractive. The state carriage of the Lord Mayor will, as usual, be drawn. by six horses, and attended by an escort of cavalry. The procession, headed by trumpeters, is to start from Guildhall about half-past 11 or 12 o'clock, passing along King-street, Cheapside, the Poultry, Cornhill, Leadenhall•street, Billiter-street, Fen church and Gracechurch-streets, into Cannon-street, then down Ludgate-hill, along Fleet-street to Temple-bar, and thence by the Strand to West minster. After the ceremony of the presentation of the Lord Mayor Elect to the Judges in the Court of Exchequer, the cortege will re-form in Palace yard, and being there joined by the Lady Mayoress in her state carriage, will return by way of White hall, the Strand, Fleet-street, Ludgate-hill, and Cheapside, to Guildhall, where the customary grand banquet will be held. It is understood that provi sion is being made for affording the whole of the Christ Church boys, some hundreds in number, a sight of the pageant at some salient point in the route. Yesterday a missive was issued from Guildhall, bearing the signature of Mt. Woodthorpe, the town clerk, addressed to the aldermen of some, if not all wards in the City, touching Lord Mayor's Day. Couched in the quaint phraseology which is still retained on such occasions, each of the aldermen is therein reminded that every person, whatever his condition in life, is bound by law to take notice of all general Acts of Parliament; yet, that there may not be the least colour or pretence for ignorance of such matters, he is enjoined to cause his beadle to go from house to house and acquaint the citizens that by certain Acts of the Legislature, specifying in particular two of the reign of William 111. and one of that of her present Majesty, it is enacted that no person, of whatever degree or calling, shall make or sell, or expose for sale, any "squibs, ser pents, or other fireworks," nor shall any one throw any such pyrotechnic implement from " any street, house, or passage," but at his peril. He is also required to cause intimation to be given to the inhabitants of his ward "to adorn the fronts and balconies of their houses with the best hangings or other ornaments, and to have the streets before their respective houses swept clean and well paved for the occasion. Snow has made its appearance on the mountains in the environs of Chambery. All the range running to the Mount du Chat has assumed its white mantle, which it will keep till March next. Tho accounts which have reached the Paris Observatory by telegraph from different points of Franco 811,0 W that the temperature is generally bmwilag Maur, The New York Herald of the 24th alt. thus speaks of the situation of affairs at that date:— "Leesburg is in the hands of the Union troops. The. advance of Gen. Stone towards that place on Monday, and Gen. Banks across the Potomac on Tuesday, is considered by military men a decisive success, although it cost the Unionists the loss of a gallant general and a colonel. The further develop ment of the movement substantiates this idea, as our despatches show that Leesburg is in the hands of the Union troops, the Secessionists apparently having evacuated the place and fallen back, as no further resistance was met with. Gen. M'Clellan was present at Gen. Banks's headquarters during the Union advance. " A smart and successful contest took place at Lynn Creek, Missouri, on the lith, and Major Wright's advance from Rolla to that place has been satisfactory in its results. " Gen. Price, the Secessionist, was last heard from in the neighbourhood of Greenfield, still going fur ther south with his forces. "A portion of Gen. Polk's forces, it is said, had been diverted from their usual locations, and sent to New Orleans and Mobile, and that only 600 Seces sionists were with him in Kentucky. This state ment, although probable, has nothing but rumour to substantiate it, and may need confirmation. " A reconnaissance in force was made yesterday in the neighbourhood of Fairfax Court-house by Gen. Blanker. The result showed that no body of Seces sionist troops of consequence was in that neighbour hood, but that they had retired further back from our lines. "The accounts received last night plainly demon strated the fact that a general retreating movement is being made by the Secessionists from the northern boundaries of what they claim as the present limits of the Confederacy. General Polk's force in Ken tucky, General Pike's in Missouri, Gen. Gustavus A. Smith's at Leesburg, and General Beauregard's at Fairfax Court-house, have all gone backwards, and the Union army is slowly but surely advancing to take their position. General Baker's funeral will take place to-day at the capital. The general order announcing his death pays a just tribute to his memory, and says, " he died as a soldier would wish to die, amid the shock of battle," &c., and that his manner of death might well be envied by any and all of his brothers in arms. " A gentleman from Memphis arrived atPadncah yesterday, and reported that the arsenal and cannon foundry at that place had been a few days since de stroyed by fire. " With regard to the removal of General Fremont, it appears that the Cabinet did not make any deci sive action relative thereto ; but left the matter en tirely in the hands of the President." The Washington. Star says in regard to the recent battle in which General Baker was killed, the attack was commenced by the enemy on our right, but was soon directed more heavily on the centre and left. Three times the line made an advance, but were obliged to return ; but the right was better pro tected and held their position. Orders came from General Baker to throw two companies of the sth Massachusetts to the centre, which was immediately executed. The left was hard pressed, but remained firm. In a short time it became evident the day was lost, and an order was issued to transfer the 15th Massachusetts from the right to the left, which was executed as at a battalion drill. Colonel Cogwell soon became satisfied of the impossibility of reach ing Edward's Ferry as desired, and gave an order to fall back towards the river, which was executed as well as the circumstances would permit. They reached the river bank about 20 minutes before nightfall. Hero the 15th deployed as skirmishers along the shore, and the only means of conveyance to the island was a large boat, which was over crowded, and swamped. Those who could swim plunged into the river—those carrying their arms who could, and others throwing them into the water, Some escaped by availing themselves of the darkness and the heavily-wooded banks, but several are' known to have been drowned in the river. The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press is officially informed that only a portion of General Banks's division was thrown across the river on Tuesday, and they now command both sides of the ferry. At the consultation between Generals M'Clellan, Banks, and Stone, it was decided that there was force enough in Virginia to meet any emergency, and those on the Maryland side were not to be moved across. A Key West letter of the 20th reports the arrival at Havana on the 16th of the Secessionist steamer Theodora, from Charleston, with the French Consul and family, and Messrs. Mason and Sliddell, Com missioners to France and England. The steamer Salver, from Havana with contra band goods, was captured as she was entering Jampa Bay, by the Keystone State, and towed to Key West. The brig Granada, from Mievitas, for New York, was taken as a prize by the privateer Sally, off Charleston, on the 13th inst. Details of the fight at Santa Rosa Island say that the Secessionist forces, 1,500 strong, landed about 2 a.m. They partly surprised Wilson's Zouaves ; the picket guard, about 600 yards off, discovered and fired upon them, giving the alarm, and saving the regiment from annihilation. The Zouaves were badly managed, and Billy Wilson is very much cen sured. The regiment lost 10 killed and 16 wounded, and nine prisoners. The Secessionist loss, by their own statement, is 350 killed, wounded, and missing. The Union troops took 35 prisoners.' The following telegrams are taken from the Quebec journals of the 26th ult. : NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—The amount of our loss by the collision at Edward's Ferry is already reduced to 600, and men who evaded pursuit are still coming in. The residue are in a good part prisoners. Neither Generals I\l'Clellan nor Stone contemplated any such movement as that which led to this reverse. The loss of two of our scouts :prevented reinforce ments crossing to support our troops. On Wednesday it was reported that a large body of Secessionists was advancing upon our troops from above and below. At first it was decided to make a stand, but finally, it was thought advisable to retire from the Virginia shore, which was done in good order. The navigation of the Potomac is entirely closed, except for a very few most adventurous boats, which are willing to run the risk. It is stated that by reason of the blockade of the river the supply of forage for our army is running short. The Richmond Examiner of the 17th states that the Secessionist army had evacuated Fairfax Court house on the night of the 13th. General M'Clellan communicates the fact that Colonel Brown made all arrangements to open bat teries upon Pensacola on the 16th, but was pre vented by the affair at the mouth of the Mississippi, which rendered necessary that two ships, which were to have taken part in the action, had to go to aid the fleet there. " Our forces are all on the Maryland side of the Potomac, and are in good condition. Tho check at Ball's Bluff has not had the least disheartening effect upon the Government." ST. Louis, Oct. 25.—A gentleman from General Siegel's advanced post reports that General Price had left Cedar County, and was retreating towards Greenfield. General Siegel's advance guard was near Bolivar on Tuesday evening, and his main body at Quincy. General Lane's forces Were at p Osceola, and Gene ral Sturge's entire corafftand, was one day's garch The bridge at Warsaw was complete, and troops were crossing on Wednesday. The general belief among the officers at Warsaw was, that Gen. Price could not get away, but would be compelled to fight or surrender. The New ork Herald says--" The late letter of Secretary Seward, in reply to Lord Lyons, has met with general and deserved approbation through out the country. Indeed, seldom has any diplo matic note received so unanimous an approval." The New York Times and Tribune are not, how ever, so cordial in their endorsements. Two newspaper editors at Franklin, New York, had been arrested and imprisoned in Fort Lafayette, on account of their Southern proclivities. The trial of the captain and crew of the priva te er Savannah wa s p rogress i ng a t N o w York, in the United St a t es Di s t r i ct C ourt, an d th e case ex citedof Jefferson Davis i s t o b e cont i nued, " we h a d as well be looking out for terms of submission, and the sooner the better." The completion of the telegraph between New York and San Francisco was regarded with, great satisfaction, and the first message sent through was one from the Mayor of San Francisco to the Mayor of New York. The steamer North Star had arrived at New York with Californian gold, valued at 1,026,332 dols. San Francisco dates by the pony express are to Oct. 16. The news is unimportant. Trade continued quiet. The Panama Herald of Oct. 10 says the privateer Sumpter was still cruising about among the Wind ward Islands. There is little of interest from Canada. The swearing-in of Lord M onck, as Governor-General of Canada, or rather as Administrator of the Government, while awaiting the arrival of his commission, took place at Quebec on the 25th ult., and the affair excited considerable interest. Addresses were presented by the corporation, the magistrates, &c. The total number of vessels still remaining at Quebec was 82. Nothing was doing in freights. In the timber trade prices were unaltered. At Montreal, on the 26th ult., flour was tending upward, under the influence of the news from this side, per City of Baltimore. Wheat sold at 1 dol. 13c. to 1 dol. 17c. for Upper Canadian spring. Ashes are quoted 6 dols. to 6 dols. sc. for pots, and 6 dols. 10c. to 6 dols. 20c. for pearls. The commercial advices from New York, via Father Point, have been already published. ARRIVAL OF THE ETNA. QUEENSTOWN, Nov. 6. The Liverpool, New York, and Philadelphia Company's screw steamer Etna, from New York on the 26th ultimo, has arrived. She brings the United States mails and 266 passengers. Her news has been generally anticipated by the arrival of the North American at Londonderry. STATE OF NAPLES. A letter from Naples, dated Oct. 30, says : I After one of the most splendid summers, followed by the brightest October I ever remember, we are beginning to enter upon winter. The passeggiata to the Favorita is over, and the Neapolitan patriots have concluded their amusements of swinging and riding on cockhorses in the Summer Palace of the Bourbons at Portici. The musical fetes of an even ing, too, in the Villa are over, though the baud plays twice a week during the day ; andthe elements seemed to announce the change which has come over us by pouring down a deluge of rain on Sun day night. -The rain, has, however, come in good time, for so great has been the drought this sum mer and autumn, that water was actually wanting in our houses for ordinary domestic purposes. It would be agreeable if on the turn of the seasons I could speak with any satisfaction of our prospects for the winter, but even the most sanguine would find it impossible to do so if they spoke honestly. There is universal discontent and murmuring here. The merchants complain that there is no commerce; the poor, that bread is dear ; the crowds who de pend for existence on the influx of sovereigns and napoleons, that there are no foreigners ; the auto nomists, that they are shorn of their national glory and governed by prefects; and people are busily at work to foment discord and dissatisfaction. People's minds may settle down with time, and the chaos consequent on revolution may gradually subside into order, but a man must have been blind and deaf not to have perceived that the murmurs have been increasing from day to day, and very hope ful must he be if he can look forward without anxiety. The publication of the new system of go vernment, though it has long been expected, has brought the reality of their position before the Nea politans, and the majority of them, I will answer for it, now find that they were not willing to settle down into a distant province, with Turin as their capital. It was all very well when they were smarting under the despotism of the Bourbons ; in order to get rid of that they would have acknow ledged the Grand Turk, to use their own words, or even put themselves under the dominion of the French; but now that they have driven out their oppressors, and have got that unity for which they clamoured, they feel that it means something very different from what they expected, and are mor tified and hurt beyond all expression at being let down so low and so rapidly. So far as the mere political , change is concerned, it must be confessed that it is the logical consequence of what the Neapolitans have been raving about for years, but, like the boy priest, who takes his views of celibacy in ignorance of his own nature and of the world and its temptations, they were not ready for the sacrifices they were called upon to make — did not, in fact, understand them. In the midst of their inconsistency one can scarcely help corn passionating them, and it certainly is impossible to look forward without grave apprehension when the feeling I have described is so general. In one word, the Neapolitans do not tolerate being sub dued and governed by the Piedmontese, and yet, if Italy is to be united, it must be throug h the action of the strongest element in the national mass. t ß h o e th fir t a h t, the andone anda w the oathderfhaarsvieghbteeen Gevelvdeernntinfreonmt, o l n e e e m ul i d gh te t eheanveoiltihaoteugthhte,n : v e o n u s l i d tiv h e a , ve d to d fl on at e te a r ll t t h h e a ir t ' v anity, and to feed the poor; but, on the contrary, with a ruthless hand, all the signs of independent nationality have been destroyed, and little, or much less than might have been done, has been done to employ the thousands who are without work or food. There were two modes of governing the South of Italy, constitutionally and by conciliation or else by force of arms, and to this latter necessity, whether from the faults of the governors or the governed, we are fast coming. So great and univer sal ar.3 the discontent and disorder, and so strong is the prejudice against being " Piedmontised," that I would almost hazard the opinion that the South of Italy to be retained must undergo an armed occupation, and be governed by the sword. How far this is desirable or practicable time, which solves all difficulties, alone can show. Besides a general aversion from the rule of the Piedmontese— for these people will not merge the distinction in names of the various inhabitants of the Peninsula in the general one of Italians—there are numerous specific accusations which are made against the Government, and, if I mistake not, the app roaching session of Parliament will be mark ed by much ivio lent recrimination.

They do not like the contem plated changes, and openly say so, though the Lieu tenancy is not to be abolished in the island. Indeed, it might be a hazardous thing to do so, as placards have been found affixed to the walls in different parts of Palermo with the words " La Luogotenenza ola Rivoluzione." It is retained therefore in Sicily as a political necessity; but, this being the case, what was more likely to irritate the Neapolitans than seeing themselves deprived of the shadow of Royalty, and their rivals preferred to them ? Let ters from Palermo and Messina, however, inform us that the military levies have been completed in those cities without disorder, and that they were accompanied to the depot by the bands of the Na tional Guards. You are aware that great fears were entertained of the success of this measure, for the Sicilians under the Bourbons were exempted from military service. , The intelligence which I communicate to you, therefore, is so far satisfactory. Here in Naples the workmels strike continues, and hundreds of them . ' may be seen walking about the streets preceded or followed by policemen. One party, preceded by three tall carbineers with hats and feathers, which made their proportions almost eight feet, looked at first sight something like a procession. The orders are not to interfere with them so long as they conduct themselves quietly. A diminutive demonstration took place near the. Granilo on Saturday, and another was attempted on Monday, composed of mechanics, locksmiths, tur ners, &c. Every additional cause of agitation is greatly to be regretted at the present moment, and there can be no doubt that the increased price of provisions, while wages remain at the same stan dard, has in some measure produced the evil above mentioned, though political intrigue, too, is at work. As for the men themselves, they can but imperfectly understand that where a loss has fallen on the whole community, each must take his part. It will create no surprise that robberies in the city are on the in crease, and some very serious ones have been com mitted during the last week. One in particular which was committed in the house of Signor Teso rone, a linen merchant in the Toledo, has created great sensation. The thieves got hold of the cash box, with 400 ducats, and a quantity of ready-made clothes ; and they broke into the lower apartments, where there was a jeweller's shop, kept by Signor De Francesco, whom they robbed of jewellery to the amount of 20,000 ducats. I have not heard as yet of the thieves having been disco vered, and if it be true, as some assert, that even members of the new police have been cor rupted by, and are in communication with the Camoristi, the chance of discovery will be dis tant, and future robberies probable. A French merchant, too, a M. Giroux, on returning to his house with his wife and family in a carriage, was stopped by four men and robbed of watches and jewellery. In this case the thieves have been disco vered, but the property is not yet forthcoming. Skirmishes continue in various parts between the troops and the banditti, who, though reduced in numbers, still create disquietude; In that which took place a few days since at Nola there were many wounded on both sides, and two soldiers and an officer aro reported dead. Of the loss of the bri gands nothing is known. I shall conclude this list of disasters by saying that another mail, that from Calabria, was stopped near Eboli on Sunday last. A captain of the Guardia Mobile, who was inside fired his revolver at the party-, and laid one man dead. The bandits then fired, and wounded a man sitting on the box. The postilion was arrested on suspicion of being concerned, though the mails were saved at length by his driving off rapidly. ARRESTS IN _RUSSIA. The following letter from St. Petersburg, dated the 31st of October, is not without interest: — "The Draconian system to which we are reduced both by day and night, the numerous arrests, all that is passing, in fact, lead me to fear that this letter may fall into the hands of the agents of Schouwaloff', of Patkoul, of Dolgoroukow, and in crease the number of victims who at this moment languish in the damp cells in the fortress of St. Peter and Paul. Absent from St. Petersburg for the last two months, I have travelled through a great part of Russia, and I can assure you, de visa et de auditu, that this country is progressing towards a revolution such as that of 1793 will give you 'but a very faint idea. At no previous period has popular agitation reached such a height, nor never was it so universal, as I can vouch, as it is at present. The peasants are exasperated against their ex-owners, whom they accuse of not having fulfilled the wishes of the Czar, who commanded them, according to the peasants' statement, to cede the entire of their lands to their ancient serfs. The landed proprietors, on their part, are furious with the Emperor and his counsellors for having stripped them, arbitrarily, of a fortune of which the annual income is esti mated at five milliards of francs. The manufac turers and merchants are the more indisposed against the Government as its ill-calculated mea sures have ruined both manufacturers' industry and trade to such a degree that nobody can foresee the period at which commercial transactions will re cover their former elasticity. In a word, I have everywhere found discontent, violent irritation, and implacable hatred among all classes of the popwla tion—one against the other, and all classes against the Government.

A counter de monstration, quite pacific, having taken place some days later on the part of the students, who demanded the reopening of the university, the army, led by Schouwaloff, Patkoul, Ignatieff, and Bistrom, charged our young students, whose only crime was having manifested their desire to resume their studies. I must announce to you, however, that our army was not unani mous in obeying the orders of the counsellors of Alexander 11. The mounted artillery of the Imperial Guard showed themselves favourable to the students. Several officers of that distinguished regiment have, consequently been brought before a Court-martial by order of the Grand Duke Michael, Grand Master of the Artillery. The day following this demonstration, of whi ch the result was the incarceration of 200 stu dents in the fort of Imperial printed in gigantic letters, the words ed that, beside St. Peter and Paul, I read on the walls of that fort, ished for their University.'
