Thr .i.1.1111"111.0.6‘ LONDON, FRIDAY, FEB. 27, 1663. To the House of Lords, yesterday, Lord NORMAIIBY called attention to the state ments which bad appeared last week in the German newspapers referring to Mr. Odo Russell's inter view with the Pope, and the reported demand of Cardinal Antonelli as to the right of Mr. Russell to address the Pope in such terms. Earl RUSSELL was ignorant of the version of the affair given in the German newspapers. He had written no letter saying that the Pope would be compelled to leave Rome. He thought such an event unlikely, inasmuch as the recent change of the French Foreign Minister showed that the Emperor of the French intended to continue the occupation of Rome. Cardinal Antonelli had asked Mr. Rue- F ell in what capacity be appeared at Rome, and had observed that owirg to th e excommuniation of the Ki ng o f Sardinia, it would not be agreeable to the Papal Court to receive the attache of an em bassy flora Tulin, and in consequence Mr, Russell had been made an attache to the Foreign Office direct. If he had spoken to Cardinal Antonelli on State affairs, it toss in consequence of the Cardi nal's having spoken to him in a confidential, though not an c menner. The Earl of DEE BY said that Earl Russell bad not answered the most important part of the ques tion, which was, whether he had anyreason toknow that Cardinal Antonelli had written a despatch to Mgr. Chigi declaring that Mr. Russell's representa tiens were so incorrect that he had determined not to recognise him in an official capacity, but only as a private individual. The question was, who. her a person accredited by the British Government was to be received as a private individual. Earl RUSSELL said he had no information on the subject. 'l 'be e wri t: re P ad ab a iic sec G o ar a dens in and Protection Bill Services i t , -will: time, and the English Church ?em s Bill passed through committee. After some the University of Durham, their Lordships adjourned. Commons adjourned. In the House of the committee on the Corrupt Sir G. GREY fixed on N r o t n ult Practices Bill kr the second reading Sir F. SMITII drew attention to pr i,,ii cae . I n the debate o te a question of make some the navy breach of estimates he had felt bound to on the appointment of Mr. Reed as chief eo e n r s e t g in r c u , t a c t r t l k o constructor of the navy, and he had asked whether that man had ever built a ship, as, if not, he considered the appointment to be dangerous and improper. T o his great surprise, he had that morning received a letter from Mr. Reed, calling upon him to say why he had made a false and libellous s t atement in Par liament concerning him, and otherwise couched in offensive terms. He thought the House would feel with him that members were not to be subjected to attacks of this kind in the performance of their duty. The letter having been brought np and read st the table, Lord C. PAGET said the letter was a most im proper one, and clearly a breach of privilege, but The Prince and Princess of Wales' Annuities ( Bill was read a third time and passed. On the order for going into a committee of sup ply Mr. H. BAILLIE moved that where differences of opinion had arisen with the native princes and peoples of India the questions at issue ought to be referred to the Privy Council. The hon. gen tleman charged the Indian Secretary with having in several instances broken the promises made in her Majesty's proclamation, more especially with respect to the Nawab of the Carnatic. The native princes were waiting for the decision of the House to know whether the treaties they held were worth the paper they were written on. He asked that when disputes arose they should not be decided by the Minister for India, who was an interested party, but that they should be referred to her Majesty's Privy Council, which was admitted by the natives of India to be a just and fair tribunal. Mr. SMOLLETT seconded the motion. Sir C. WooD defended the Indian Administration, and said he was most anxious to carry out the pro mises of the proclamation. He hoped the House would leave such questions to be dealt by the Government. After some remarks from Colonel SYKES in favour of a disinterested tribunal, the motion for going into committee was carried by 104 to 24. The House then proceeded with the consideration of the Navy Estimates, and agreed to the following votes :—£165,322 for the Admiralty-office; £299,695 for Coastguard service ; £71,961 for scientific branch ; £133,316 for home establishments ; £36,370 for establishments abroad; £1,112,878 for wages to artificers at home; £69,957 for wages to artificers abroad; and £1,334,051 for naval stores. A discussion took place on the first of these votes, when Mr. LINDSAY, Admiral WALCOTT, Mr. BEN TINCK, and others objected to the system of naval administration, and the continual official changes at the Admiralty, Sir M. PETO remarking that dur ing thirty years there had been 17 first lords and 100 other changes in the Lords of the Admiralty. Lord C. PAGET defended the present system. After a lengthened discussion, the vote for naval stores was agreed to, upon Lord PALMERSTON pro mising that no steps should be taken towards the construction of the five wooden ships alluded to, until the House had an opportunity of seeing an estimate of the comparative time and expense of building them of wood or of iron, and had had an opportunity of expressing an opinion on the subject. The Post-office Savings Banks Bill and the Bills of Exchange and Notes (Metropolis) Bill were read a second time. Leave was given to bring in several bills of minor importance, and the House adjourned.. Political affairs in Prussia are rapidly approach ing a crisis, and we can only hope that the rumours which have been current on the Bourse at Berlin as to probable changes in the Ministry may prove to be founded on fact. It is said that owing to the strenuous opposition offered by some members of the Prussian Cabinet to the Prime Minister's foreign policy, Herr VON BISMARK has tendered his re signation, which was, according to the news, nei ther accepted nor withdrawn. The KING is doubt less loath to part with so congenial a coadjutor, but it he persist much longer he will be driven to a very unpleasant alternative. The debate in yester day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies was a very stormy one ; it lasted six hours, a somewhat unusual length for the Prussian Chambers, and the policy of the Government was severely censured. The report of the committee appointed to inquire into the proposition that the Government should be requested to maintain neutrality with regard to the Polish insurrection, and insist on the disarmament of fugitives of both parties, was presented by Herr VON SYBEL, who called upon the Chamber solemnly to disavow the policy of the Government, and told the Ministers they had only to choose between lamentable retreat and inconceivable danger. GRAF VON EILENBERG then, in the name of the Government, denied that the insurgents who were arrested near Thorn had been given up to Russia ; they had only been sent across the frontier. He also said that the state ment of Prussian troops having entered. Russian territory was false. Notwithstanding these asser tions on the part of the Government, the speech of Herr VON BISMARK gives little encouragement to the friEnds of liberty and order. He declared that the Ministry had been unable to state its views; that the proposal of the opposition was sym pathetic with the insurrection. The Govern ment could not, ho said, discuss a question which affected European policy, as if the present state of uncertainty and suspicion were not disturb ing half the Cabinets and peoples of Europe ! The Chambers must not form conjectures as to the pur port of the convention, but what are they to do if ' the Ministry refuse to give them authentic infor mation ? Can they consent to trust the honour and dignity of their country in the hands of such men as Herr VON BISMARK and his coadjutors? The Convention, says the Prussian Minister, expressly stipulates that the consent of the respective Govern ments is requisite on each occasion of troops passing the frontiers, but what is the use of such a condi tion when the Prussian KING and his Ministers are more despotic than the CZAR himself, and at least 1 as ready to resort to harsh and violent measures to crush down an uprising people ? Herr VON BISMARK asserted that the expressions used by Earl 1 RUSSELL were totally inapplicable to the Convention signed by the Government, as would be proved when the text was published—a little too late to raise objections. If Herr VON BISMARK speak truth, the secret has been very carefully kept, for he de clares that Count BERNSTORFF was not acquainted with the text of the treaty when questioned by Earl RUSSELL. It strikes us as highly improbable that a diplomatist of such high standing was not, at least, aware of the general character and tendency of the Convention, and we suspect his admissions to Ithe English Minister are more to be trusted than Herr VON BISMARK'S attempt to pacify % suspicious Chamber. The Government, says the Prime Minister, has nothing to retract, but what that means in the Prussian Minister's view i s not altogether clear. The sitting, a f ter a stormy debate, was adjourned until this day, 1 and we shall await the further report of its proceedings with interest. Whatever stay be the attitude assumed by the KING and his Cabinet, we may confidently trust that the honour and inde pendence of Prussia will be safe in the hands of her popular representatives. An interesting meeting was held a few even ings since at Whitehall-gardens, at which many of the most active friends of the working classes were present. The subj ec t under discussion was the social and sanitary economy of the dwellings of the Poor--a practical question of vital importance to the wellbeing of a large portion of our popula -1 tion, whi c h i s enthusiasm for g v e e u r e y rti a i p p t ri t n o ci b p e lost l es or si t g h h o et advocacy Tr i o n th e 1 enthusiasm a t u e of wholesale reforms. In the midst of the vast im provements, which are ehanging the face of the metropolis, the difficulties which have always attended the supply of proper accommodation for the labouring classes are likely to be considerably i ncre ased. The Bishop of LONDON, who filled the chair at the meeting in question, remarked on the startling changes produced by the recent addi tions to our railway system, and observed that in one parish the incumbent suddenly found himself deprived of nearly all his parishioners. The streets may be demolished and forgotten, but the human beings, though forgotten, are still existing ; and, as the Bishop justly observed, it is a solemn duty to do all that can be done to save them from the moral and physical evils resulting from the crowd ing of several families into a single house, perhaps even a single room. A speaker of considerable authority was Dr. LANKESTER, who, in the course of his duties as coroner, has had many opportunities of witnessing the mischief produced by the ill-re gulated homes of our working families. The whole state of things among the hard working classes, said Dr. LANKESTER, was most distressing, and needed stringent remedies. One of these remedies is in the hands of the people themselves, in spite of any legislative indifference or the inaction of land • lords, but it is unfortunately the very last they are willing to apply. We allude to free ventilation, a luxury which very few in this crowded city allow themselves to profit by to the fullest possible extent. We hear a great dealabout the benefits of country air, change of air, &c., from people whose moms are kept continually closed in, and who shrink from an open window as a dangerous imprudence. The terror of " draughts," the fear of " catching cold," instilled into successive generations, outweigh all the arguments, remonstrances, and warnings of the advanced and enlightened science of the present day. The evil is by no means restricted to the dwellers in the densely populated streets of cities, for anyone who has lingered along a country road on a fine summer's day, may have been surprised to notice the closed and curtained windows which carefully exclude every breath of the balmy summer air, while the loiterers in the lanes and waysides are generally few and far between. Yet that air and exercise are the two great preservatives of health we need neither precept nor example to show us. The theories are readily admitted, but a host of prejudices start up to oppose the daily practice. Let such as plead guilty to the indict ment, more especially if they be heads of families, weigh well the result of Dr. LANKESTER'S experience. He said that he found the children of respectable artisans suffered more from the want of space and fresh air than even the inhabitants of the back slums, because the former were kept indoors while the latter ran about the streets—" the air out of doors even in the worst localities being far purer than that of even the large and aristocratic rooms at the West-end." " The neglect of ventilation," he went on to say, " even by the wealthy was wonderful—among the poor it was almost univer sal." Such is the view of a gentleman who, from his position as Coroner, as well as from his previous professional experience, is well qualified to pronounce an opinion. We can scarcely hope, however, for any rapid improvement in this particular, althougb, if we could attain it, there is little doubt that the spread of contagious diseases would be perceptibly checked as well as the general health of the public greatly improved. We cannot pass laws to make people open their windows for a given time in the twenty-four hours, but we can certainly interfere to provide sufficient means of ventilation when they are inclined for it —proper drainage, and, above all, a limited number of inhabitants. The evils attending the over-crowd ing of rooms and houses have been so often dwelt upon that they have become almost platitudes. They are so great as to secure the intervention of the Legis lature, but although the Common Lodging-house Act has produced most beneficial effects, there are unhappily, still loopholes by which it is often evaded. It appears to us that, without trenching on the boasted privilege of an Englishman, some of these might be prevented. For instance, Lord SHAFTES BURY declared that unscrupulous landlords and tenants often eluded the provisions of the bill by pretending that all the inmates of a house or room were members of their own family. Such a fraud as this could be easily detected by the police, and one or two heavy fines would check an imposture only attempted for gain. Various useful sugges tions were made by other speakers at the meeting, and we trust the friends of health and progress will follow the advice given by Mr. KINNAIRD, M.P., and assist the beneficial settlement of these important questions by rendering them the powerful support of public opinion. IRE L AND. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAM,) THE POLISH INSURRECTION. OSTROWO, FEB. 26 (Evening). The insurgents have taken the manufacturing town of Opatowek, near Kalisch. Prussian troops have been despatched from this city to the Russian frontier. FRANCE. PARIS, FEB. 27. The ffloniteur of this morning publishes the reply of the Washington Cabinet to the overtures of France for the re-establishment of peace. The full text of the reply has already been pub lished in the English journals. PARIS, FEB. 26. At to-day's sitting of the Senate further petitions were laid upon the table in favour of Poland. The report of the Committee upon these petitions will not be made before next week. The Pays of this evening says : " The Cabinet of Washington bas replied to the proposition of mediation made by France. Mr. Seward considers it impossible to open immediate negotiations for peace. According to the Cabinet of Washington a more practicable means would be for deputies from the dissentient States to comeito Con gress, where projects of arrangement could be dis cussed and, if adopted, submitted to the sanction of a National Convention. The Opinion Nationale says that the agitation, or rather the indignation, is increasing in Prussia, and never did greater unanimity exist between the people and the Chambers. We have just seen the report of the commission charged by the Chamber of Deputies to examine into the propositions of Messrs. Hoverbeck and De Carlowitz, relative to the intervention of Prussia in the affairs of Poland. The commission has expressed its unanimous opinion that the conduct of the Government has perfectly justified the declaration made to the Cham bers by Messrs. Hoverbeck and De Carlovitz. The Constitutionnel says that the news just re ceived from Poland, by Cracovia and Breslau, are all quite favourable to the cause of the insurgents. An encounter took place some days since between the Poles and the Russians in the environs of Kutno. At the end of this combat the body of Russians, whose commander was killed, had to beat a retreat and retire to the Prussian frontier. In another encounter at Biala the insur gents again obtained the advantage. Therefore the insurrection does not appear to decrease, as was asserted by some of the Russian despatches' some days back. The Pays asserts that all the news and des patches from Germany coincide in declaring that it is the universal opinion that the attitude of the Chamber of Representatives in Berlin, seconded by the manifestation of public opinion throughout Europe, will stop the Prussian Government in the dangerous course that it has entered upon. Le Sleds observes that the treaty of 1856 was too hastily concluded. It was thought to save Sweden by the destruction of Bomarsund, and Turkey by that of Sebastopol. What should have been done to protect all at once was to reestablish Poland. So long as this essential balance to the European equilibrium is out of place there will be no durable peace. The Polish people, after a thousand protests, have now come back to that form of protest which alone has a chance of success. Those who do not recognise that her hour has come are wanting in political perception. We do not hesitate, says the Siecle, to affirm that Rus sia is committing suicide by pursuing an impossible object. Blinded by the vainglory of preserving a conquest acquired by an injustice that has provoked the censure of Europe, she will ex haust herself fruitlessly. Internal convulsions will agitate her in her turn, and as she has not the homogeneousness of the Polish people she will be in greater danger. The article concludes by saying that the petitions will be presented to the Senate, where certainly they will receive a different recep tion from that accorded to M. Jules Favre by the Corps Legisiatif. Public opinion imperatively exacts a very different attitude!

The illumination proposes to surpass in dazzling effect anything we have had in this country. The merchants whose places of business are in Sackville-street are uniting their resources in order that a satisfactory result may be produced. Nelson's pillar is to be illuminated from the base to the summit, adorned with fanciful devices in gas of every colour, as if hung round with wreaths of flowers. The apparent supineness of the civic authorities has roused the citizens to do great things on this occasion. But though the corporation is slow in its movements, and the Lord Mayor seems too full of the idea of " Irish distress" to indulge heartily in the festive mood, he will, no doubt, take his proper place and do the right thing, or he would sadly disappoint his con stituents. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, Feb. 25. An illustration of hurried justice on circuit oc curred at Armagh yesterday. The case of "Ken nedy v. Lloyd," which had been tried at the last assizes, came on for trial now again. But the Judge was due that day at Downpatrick, and nothing could be done but enter the case as a engine& Counsel remarked on the extreme hard ship to which his client was subjected by the post ponement of the case, as he was in attendance for several days with no fewer than seven witnesses from Downpatrick, and had incurred great expense in preparing for the trial. Yesterday and to-day have been days of suspense and rumours. People run about talking of a crisis, and the quidnuncs are on tenterhooks to find out who is the coming man. Lists of probable Cabinets are discussed and extravagant conjectures hazarded. As possible Premiers have been named, the two Manteuffele (the ex-Minister and the General), Count Goltz (the present Ambassador at Paris), M. von der Hey dt, and others still less likely. It has been suggested that a Ministry might be formed by Prince Hohenzollern, with Prince Wal demar of Schleswig-Holstein as Minister of War ; M. von Bonin, M. Gneist, end one or two more from the Left Centre, filling up some of the minor departments with non-political men, now high functionaries in the different Ministries. It is certainly possible that such a Ministry might be formed—of course on the basis of a legally-esta blished two-years' term of military service, which would necessitate a rifacimento or reorganisation of the army--and that it might command a working majority in the chamber. There is only one obstacle, and that is the extreme improbability that the King would make up his mind thus to fly in the face of Prince Charles and the military Camarilla, to throw his feudal friends overboard and himself into the arms of the liberals. The Berlin public may be mistaken in imagining that there is any crisis at all ; just as M. Auerswald and his friends, who yesterday held conclave and expected to be sent for, may prove completely in error as to their chances of office. If the King does change, it is to be hoped it will be to some purpose., and that he will not recur to the wavering advisers who so frittered away his popularity and their own reputa tion during their late period of office, and, by their endeavours to conciliate everybody, perfectly suc ceeded in disgusting all parties. Such a well-mean ing, weak-minded, and irresolute Administration as the Auerswald-Schwerin-Patow Cabinet is the last thing to be desired. M. Patow is considered quite impossible even by his own friends. What the Libe rals say, however, is that any change must be for the better. the departure from office of the present Premier, 'who has accumulated upon his head an unusually large load of dislike and contempt, would give general satisfaction, but there is great room for a doubt whether it will just now take place. I desire, however, to give no opinion as to what may or may not occur in a month, a week, or even in the course of the next 48 hours; for the circumstances of the time and the characters of the men chiefly concerned are such that nothing can be foreseen or pronounced impos sible. Considering the combined weakness and obstinacy of the principal personage, and the in fluences to whi c h h e h as o f l a t e b e en subject, it is hard to belie ve i n suc h a c h ange as would utterly The Belfast Bank has been defrauded to the amount of £4,000 in notes and gold, by a person named Roberts, the cashier of the Ballymena branch. The Northern Whig says that Roberts left Ballymena on Saturday last, by the evening train, and was seen carrying a large portmanteau. On Monday morning he was not to be found, and it was immediately afterwards discovered that gold and notes, to the amount of £4,000, had been taken away. The police have not yet succeeded in getting any clue to Roberts, and it is supposed that he has escaped to America. COVENTRY WEDDING FAVOURS.—The looms of Coventry, 'which, till withi n th e l ast f ew wee k s , were, in the majority of inst ances , standing idle, are now to a very great extent actively employed in the manufacture of ribbons for making up into rosettes for the royal mar riage. Another advantage—and not the least of those which Coventry will reap from the present movement, as it affords some additional prospect of permanent employment in future —arises from the fact that the stock of white ribbons in the hands of warehousemen and manufacturers has become utterly exhausted, and as there is a constant demand, even in times of depression, for white ribbons for the trimming of ladies' bonnets, it necessarily follows that the weavers will have to work hard for a considerable time, in order to replenish that stock. The execution of orders for the usual spring tide have also, we believe, been to a great extent de ferred in consequence of the pressure of business arising from the present extraordinary requirement of white rib bons. It will thus be seen, that there is every probability of the weavers of Coventry deriving very great and per manent advantage from the universal patronage which the country has bestowed upon them on this ocoMion dash the hopes of the Absolutist party, infuriate some of the King's most constant associates and in timate advisers, and give to the Constitutional cause in Prussia a prestige and a prospect it has never yet enjoyed. Two other circumstances make against a change of Ministry at the present moment—namely, the fear of appearing to yield to foreign pressure, and the consideration that the convention originally proceeded from the King and his generals, not from M. Bismark, who, in fact, is merely the secretary or notary who draws up his master's acts. M. Bismark doubtless had early cognizance of what was going on ; and it has even been said that the statement that he had no part in originating the notable project, is a false report spread by his order and by a certain M. Hahn, at the Ministerial press bureau, on whom are fathered most of the rumours circulated that can in any way, direct or indirect, benefit the Ministry or injure its opponents. But, according to probability and to the best opinions, the negotiation was commenced without his being consulted, and all the blame due to him is that which would attach to a coachman w ho, finding his master bent upon being upset in a ditch, should conscientiously look out for a steep bank and a deep place instead of laying down the reins and declining complicity in an act of suicide. As regards the famous Prusso-Russian conven. tion, it is now supposed by many that it will be desisted from, and, if not cancelled, that it will at least be allowed to remain a dead letter. Of course there are plenty of reports afloat concerning it. According to one, a despatch from Paris to Berlin insisted that it should not be carried out. It may be doubted whether things have gone so far as that. In diplomatic circles here it is suspected that the convention was communicated to the French Govern. ment on Friday (on which day Count Goltz had an audience of the Emperor), while it is affirmed as positive that, up to Saturday at least, no copy of it had been supplied to the English Government. We are left to choose whether to attribute this to mere neglect and clumsiness, or to an idea of conciliating the French Emperor, and trying to detach him from England in this matter. The papers state that Sir Andrew Buchanan, who left Berlin on Monday morning for Strelitz, had an audience of the King on Sunday. When the Eng lish and French Legations at Berlin were elevated, at the request of the Prussian Court, into Embas sies, people were disposed to smile, and deem it superfluous, but with the present Prussian Govern ment one is inclined to think it highly desirable that the representatives of the Western Powers should be able to communicate with the King with out the interference of a Bismark. The Crown Prince left this morning for Carlsruhe, whence he will proceed to England, in company with the Grand Duke of Baden, for the marriage of the Prince of Wales. His stay in England is not expected to be long, Commence at '. TtIEAT RE-RC YAI„ HAY MARKET. Lessee, 3Tr. J. B. Buckstone. THIS EVENING, at Seven o'clock, will be performed CUR AMERICAN COUSIN.

If necessary, a bill will be submitted for the improvement and extension of the present military system. Measures are to be introduced for the adjustment of Parliamentary representation, respecting a bankrupt law, the administration of justice, resgistration of titles, and the patent laws. A report upon the Parliamentary buildings at Ottawa will be submitted, with a view to their speedy completion. The speech refers to the nego tiations for an international railway, and says the attention of the Imperial Government has been called to the importance of opening up the North- West for settlement and a direct communication be tween Canada and British Columbia. Very favour able results are expected. The Governor hopes that the commission of inquiry into the condition of the public service will result in bringing the ex penditure of the province within the revenue re ceived. He alludes to the Canadian contributions for the relief of the distress in Lancashire as gra tifying evidence of sympathy with his fellow-sub jects, and tending to strengthen the ties between the colony and the parent State.

Floating cargoes of grain were in limited request, at late rates. Fine malting barley realised previous quotations; but other kinds—owing to an increased importation—met a dull sale, at drooping currencies. Malt was in slow request, at late rates. There was an increased supply of oats—chiefly foreign— on offer. Good and fine qualities in fair demand, at full prices ; otherwise the trade ruled inactive, on former terms.

J. Patteson) stated that several of the Norwich manufacturers had expressed their wish to place articles at the disposal of the Princess Alexandra, as shawls were not the only productions for whichNorwioh was celebrated. He was quite sure that the council would be glad to accept these handsome offers. A communication had been sent to London, but no reply had yet been re ceived in reference to the mode and occasion for submitting the presents to the Princess. The late Marquis of Lansdowne has bequeathed to Lord Monteagle and the governors of the hospital called Barrington's Hospital, in the city of Limerick, the sum of £3,000, to be expended by them for the benefit of the said hospital, provided that it shall be open at all times for the natives of the county of Kerry.

From the re stricted state of their resources they have, it is said, been induced to sell for 50,000 f. their stud of thirty horses, which was valued at double that sum. RECOVERY OF 11DLLE. LIVRY.—The members of the Committee of the Association of Dramatic Artistes of France, at their last sitting, addressed the fol lowing to Mdlle, Emma Livry :—" Mdlle. and dear corn rade,—We shall not attempt to depict to you the delight we have felt on hearing of your getting better. We have watched with the most lively interest the different phases of your health, and like all the world, and more than everyone, we were happy to receive that gratifying intelligence, for you are not only one of the glori es but the honours of ourin stitution. We offer up the most sincere prayers that you may within a brief delay be restored to the admiration of the public, who expect that pleasure with an impatience equal to your own. Accept, mademoiselle, with our con gratulations for your improvement in health, the assurance of our distinguished consideration." ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS.-The annual course of lectures in this institution has been com menced by Professor Huxley, F.R.S., who delivered a most philosophical discourse on the rare skeleton of a Glyptodan, recently presented to the college by Senor Don Maximo Terrero, the s on-in-law of the celebrated General Rosas. Among the celebrities was Bishop Colenso, who has hitherto attended every lecture, and with the professi'n generally appears much struck with these admirable discourses. EXTRAORDINARY LONGEVITY.—The Times obi tuary of yesterday contained, among others, the deaths of five ladies and three gentlemen, whose united ages amounted to 687 years, giving on an average 86 years and upwards of ten months to each.

In Warsaw the Russians aro said to have forbid den the Sisters of Charity to gO out and render any assist • ante to the wounded insurgents in the field. Letters from St. Petersburg state that the Polish insurrection is the one topic of conversation in that city, and that, although the imperial troops are always repre sented as victorious in the Imperial bulletins, and the in surgents as utterly defeated, people begin to believe that the movement is of a very obstinate character, and that it is not likely to be put down quite so easily as was at first sup posed. Fresh troops were leaving St. Petersburg for Poland every day. THE TRAMWAY OVER MOUNT CENIS.-TURIN, Feb. 2G.—The proposition made by M. Fell to execute the task of constructing a tramway over Mount Cenis has been accepted by the Italian Government upon condition that the consent of the French Government shall also be ob tained. A MEDICAL HINT TO COOKS.—A correspondent of the Lancet says :—" All learned toxicologists and chemists appear to have forgotten the important fact that, if a meat pie is made without a hole in the crust, to let out certain emanations from the meat, colic, vomiting, and other symptoms of slight poisoning will cccur. I hay() known of two instances of large parties being affected in this manner from eating meat pies that had no vont in them.

Tussaud's exhibition. Her royal highne9s is represented in a magni fiCelat court dress, LITERATURE Sylvia's Lovers. By Mrs. Gaskell, Author of " The Life of Charlotte Broute," " Mary Barton," &c., &c. 3 vols. Smith and Elder. It is some time since the reading public were favoured with a novel from this gifted writer, and it is satisfactory to find that her style has not deteriorated, nor her characters become less for cible. In some of the personages here met with, we find all the vigour of her former heroes and heroines. Philip Hepburn is a masterpiece in his life-like delineation—his virtues, his vices, all show forth marked and prominent. They are nicely balanced and evenly adjusted, so that we alternately admire and despise him. Some impetuous reader might pronounce judgment against him at once, but that would not be fair. His errors were grave ones, but they could not obliterate his merits. He was gifted also with sufficient honesty of heart to know the wrong he had done, and the memory of it walked through life, even unto death beside him. Sylvia might have spared him the misery, and herself the sin of her curses, for the avenger was ever with him, I as the worm that dieth not, and the fire that cannot be quenched. The point on which the story turns is as skilful in design as was ever introduced into a pioture of real life, and ably has the conception been carried out. Sylvia, a frank, fearless country girl, of no particular character, except that she was obstinate and unforgiving when deeply offended, was in love with Charles Kinnaird, the " Speck sioneer" of a vessel bound for Greenland, on the whale fishery. Philip had long been attached to his pretty little cousin, but was waiting to declare himself until some business arrangements had been completed. His employers sent him to London on an important mission. He started early in the morning, and took his way by the sea shore to arrive at the place where the coach started. Thus ho passed the " Haytersbank Gully, opening down its green entrance among the worn brown bases of the cliff." This was Sylvia's home, and he longed to see her then and repeat the adieus of the previous evening. Time forbade, however, and he harried on. A man came down the gully just then at a quick pace, and, as he preceded him, Philip saw it was his rival the Specksioneer, Kinnaird. This latter was also on his travels, being about to take sail for the Northern Seas. He had made an en gagement with a whaler at North Shields, and bad just taken leave of Sylvia. Maddened at this thought, Philip went on after his rival, his suc cessful rival, when, suddenly taking a different turn and getting in advance of Kinnaird, he fore* saw a deadly danger for his foe. On came the un' suspicious sailor, and up started the ambush. The press-gang had seized him. In vain he showed his papers, and declared he was a protected whaler by Act of Parliament. The fierce crew would hear ne law but that of capture, when and how they could. They seized their prey, but on the point of depart ing for the it boat, then in waiting on the shore, Kinnaird caught sight of Philip watching them behind a reek. Ho called to him, and, ignorant of his vindictiveness against him, though aware ho was not friendly disposed, proceeded to send by him a parting message to his cousin. Unfortu• nately on the road Philip stumbled over Kinnaird's hat, which,had dropped in the struggle. if In the band that went round the low crown a ribbon was knotted, a piece of that same ribbon which Philip had chosen out with such tender hope to give to Sylvia for the Corney's party on New-year's Eve" He had been almost relenting into pity for the man captured before his eyes, now he abhorred him. He heard Kinnaird deliver his charge, that he would tell Sylvia of his misfortune, bid her not forget their engagement, and to remember that lie would be faithful to her and return as soon as pots' Bible. Philip went on, and Kinnaird was borne to the boat, thence to the ship, and then afterwards over the seas to fight in foreign lands in the wily' then raging with great virulence. As may be Elt pected, that message never reached its destination' When Philip returned from London, he found, t° his great relief, that every one thought Kinnaird had been drowned. His hat was found ou the shore, and no one in the neighbourhood had 1 10 ' ticed the vessel that had carried him away. Philip thought this a grand opportunity, and eagerly eel braced it. Had he looked into the question aright he would have recognised the deadly snares of th e tempter. Philip's love was not a perfect attach' ment, the highest affection is capable of any seal' five for the good, even for the happiness of the be' loved one, Philip's was essentially a selfish feeling' he stood by and saw Sylvia shedding bitter tear° for her lost love, while he acted a lie, and let her grieve, knowing that a word from him would hol e made her heart rejoice. One step leads to a nother with fearful velocity, on this dark road of dear tion and subterfuge ; some grievous family troubles overcame the light-hearted girl, and her sunshiny career was for ever darkened in this world. it e l father, who had always ent er t a i ne d a b urn i ng hatred to the press-gang, b ecame i n an ev il h our i nv olve" in a very serious struggle with them. H e an d 1: 05 friends liberated the men that the officers hi ., ' seized, and then, excited and maddened by long oppression, they forgot themselves, and burne d down the " Randyvow," as they called the pla ce where the officers put up in Monkshaven. r ef this Daniel Robson was seized and tried. By O . laws of the land at that time he was guilty of a capital offence, and his life paid the forfeit. Mrs' Robson, enfeebled by illness, became quite childi sh ' and Sylvia was alone in the word. What a co n trast to the blooming girl, the idol of h er parent: who had not a care in the world, but was belove' and admired wherever she turned. Philip was the mainstay of the afflicted household; he provid e d an eminent lawyer to d e f en d th e accuse d ; brought the wife and d aug ht er t o t h e pr i so n, t l/3 0 stayed with them i n th e d reary t own w h e re th e execution took place. Sylvia had notice to the farm, the world seemed a desert around li e '; and it was not - wonderful that she should have ° , l last agreed to marry Philip, whom she respected o ' , honoured for his services to her father, and his ell wearying kindness to her mother. The scene d changes. The country life, with its freedom al l freshness, vanished with the days of her haPP I youth, and the dream of her first le v d e i away for ever. Sylvia was now the wif e ti a a respectable shopkeeper in Monkshaven, a at her existence assumed a measu re d routine ° J ost cramped her feelings and curbed her desires stn' beyond endurance. Philip'e feelings in these "hgl et days" are most accurately described. No he av i punishment can befall the daring sons of hurneedit it than to have their impious wishes granted, and l ' h io unworthy longings gratified. Philip knew tha t ..0 cousin was not for him by the decision of her 0 heart and the arrangements of Providence. Pod began by wishing something to befall his rived, ,E 1 from the rocks up sprang men to do his biddle6to Then he availed himself' of the dreadful judgin elj o of Heaven on the afflicted family to work out fig purpose. He succeeded, and yet the result w_ dt not so delightf u l " a ft er a ll, an d t h oug h he did acknowledge it to himself, the long desired 1 15 P: 1r , I nese was not so delicious and perfect as he ha d .4 3 ticipated."
