Larkin, Esq., reported upon, as after mentioned , to contain ' 1 ,600 acres in extent, and to possess extensive gold-bearing quartz ss v eins and auriferous deposits, and gold washings, and to be well ''uonted for agricultural purposes. The property is described as being situated on the west bank of the Feather River, which is a tributary of the Great Sacramento fiver, and to be at a distance of about 95 miles by water communi rlilon from San Francisco. The Sacramento is at all times naviga a for steamers ; and it is stated that, during a greater portion of ii o Year, vessels can navigate the Feather River up to the property. The estate is freehold, and the vendors guarantee an indisput able title, free from inctunbrances. The mineral importance and value of the property will be best Nicholas of by the following extract from the report of the Surv e y or, Gray, Esq., who, in September, 1852, surveyed it as an officer ti nder orders from the United States Government. fte r g ivin g a detailed description of each lot, he sums up his report as follows : "I class the whole estate, containing 21,656 70-100 acres, as mi neral land. Gold is found from the bottom of the smallest gully to the summit of the highest mountain on the land, in the soil as In the Quartz rock. Some indications of iron are to be observed at the o euth-west corner of the Table Mountain. Quicksilver has been die' c overed in the same vicinity, and I have been informed by men of v eracity that a few diamonds have also been dug from the slope of , 4 ie same mountain. The whole front of the e state on Feather ,'oloer is about 24 miles, taking its meanders, and I believe the gold s7crins g quartz rock is to be found all alo n g the bank of that stream, Zoo extending back generally two or three miles. By reference to the map you have all the principal points laid down of quartz t Ock, rich diggings, .Isc.” s Further important details will be found in the acco m p an y in g L c ctiment and map of the property; and other particu l a rs of an in n'esting nature respecting this extensive territory ;nay be inspected 'o the office of the Company. s _ Ir. Gray states in his Reports that specimens of the quartz veins 7ere taken by him from the estate. These Mr. Larkin forwarded to _ondon for anal) sis, and the result of that analysis, as given in the 4 . a lt a nc i ii i t, shows that with careful managsment a largo return for the vested may be reasonably expected from the Company's ruining operation s . The working capital of 100,0001., leaving the remainder for pur chase money, will, it is anticipated, be amply sufficient to conduct all the operations of the Company; r nd it is intended to expend the same chiefly in erecting extensive central mills for grinding the auriferous quartz on the property, and for reducing and extracting the gold from its matrices, whether sands, earths, or quartz, in the most complete, Perfect, and economical manner; and also in en garaging farmers to settle upon the property. whose rents would be conarnensurate with its valise and location . , and who would In no W aY interfere with the extraction of its mineral riches. The venders have agreed to sell the property at a price one-half of Which i s included in the present capital. and the remaining half ,„ 5 to be paid when the capital is increased to £500,000, and when utvidends to the amount of 20 per cent. have been paid to the Sh areholders as before mentioned. The entire price to bo thUs Paid in moities is probably not one-hundredth part of the mere Vain of the gold to be extract ed from the lands, independently ve of stheir fitness and eligibility fo r cultivation ; and the company ha °t en met with the greatest fairness by the vendors, whodonmotosteeetyk I h. paid for the estate ; except a depo sit of 5 per cent on one of the purchase money, until an English surveyor, nominated by the a ß oard of Supervision, shall have examined the estate, reported upon and declared it to be in accordance with the prospectus. The eke per acre on the portion of purchase•mo ne y p a y able out of the *resent capital Is less than 101. The Company may find it desirable that a town shall be erected ;7 the junction of the Feather River with the north fork of that cr ; and as great facilities and advantages will be offered to 1,,, d uets. the particular lands to be set apart for this city, l oo king at threst e. known rapidity with which American cities are create d and l'ett pled, may probably, in a few years, realise prices sufficient to re %Ore to the Shareholders the entire purchase money. s ,_kr l organised system of granting leases of min es on the estate is ZCO in contemplation, which will yield large returns to this Cor n r ; individuals and the Board Of Supervision desire to call the attentioo individuals and companies contemplating the p u rchase o f . farm - i r "g lands, alluvial diggings, cr quartz mining locations, to their vast ... a cts of territory. The Board will be prepared to m ake sales and osiStit leasei of portions of the Feather River Estate. 1 . The Board of Supervision believe that they indulge in no exagge :tinn when expressing their conviction that the estate f airl y p ut to .ork to its full capabilities will, for many years, annually yield as n i dend—what may reasonably be expected from all succ es•ful gold ,7tnPanies—at least 20 per cent. on the entire capital bes ides nenses. The investment in the shares must, therefore, be equal to gist offered by any other company, either in Australia or California. The board of Supervision will have the power of carrying out the ...,'entract with the vendors. and of settling the statutes of the corn rcY, under which all its affairs will be regulated. The deposit will I,,sti: andare thus paying up the shares in lull at the time of allot hrt,all deposits applicable to the purchase money received been if shares sold s‘ ill be held in like manner as the shares would have if not sold—viz., until the surveyor's report has been received, 1 4. 1 1._ t et Po-suasion given, and a good title exhibited, and a proper con ',ranee executed. t 4 PPlications for shares to be addressed to the Secretary, and to o Brekers ef the Company ; and napplica tion can receive atten -711 Unless references be given to Bankers or Stockbrokers.

NO ACT OF PARLIAMENT REQUIRED TO SETTLEI THE BOTTLED BEER QUESTION. EARLE BROTHERS and CO. beg to inform the Public that they have made arrangements to Sell Bass's or Allsopp's PALE ALE, and other Pale Ales of the first quality, Genuine DUBLIN STOUT, in Bottles manufactured expressly for them, containing the full IMPERIAL QUART and PINT MEA SURE, at the following prices : Bass's or Allsopp's best Pale Ales, at per dozen im- a. d. perial quarts .. .. 8 0 Ditto ditto pints 4 6 Genuine Dublin Stout, warranted of the first quality— Per Dozen imperial quarts .. .. 7 0 Ditto ditto pints .. .. • • 4 0 Earle Brothers and Co guarantee their Ales and Stout to be of the finest quality, and earnestly invite the Public to avail themselves of the great saving they will make by honouring this firm with their patronage. Earle Brethers and Co. call the attention of the Public to the im portant fact, that they are offering Three Gallons, that is,One Dozen and a Half of the present miscalled Quarts and Pints, for a Lower Price than the Public is now generally paying for Two Gallons, or One Dozen of precisely the same article, identical in quality, and brewed by the same eminent firms. The advantage to the Public is one-third more for the same price. The Public has loudly complained of the short measure it has been the practice of the dealers in Bottled Beer to give. Earle Brothers and Co. offer the Public a complete remedy, ani respectfully Leg the Public to avail themselves of it. AFFAIRS OF BUSINESS.—In every affair of trade, buying or selling, equality and prices, are tha condi- tions of satisfactory contract. The superior quality of all goods offered to public loopec ion, or made to order by E. MOSES and SON, is so well known, and has been so long tried, that very little need be said on that subject ; but the unity of low p ices, and the very best qualities, Is a system of business which E. MOSES and SON were the first to introduce, and have been the most successful in carrying out. This they have made applicable to every branch of their gigantic business, and have adhered to it during all changes in the seasons or the markets. They have never hesitated to pay the best prices for the most artistic and accomplished workmanship— but they will by no means inflict higher charges on any of their pa trons. The LADIES are furnished with HABITS the most graceful . . . _ . in style, and from the finest and most fashionable materials, or with HOSIERY, the neatest, most novel, and useful. GENTLE MEN are provided with the best materials and workmanship in every description of ATTIRE which their professions, engagements, or the season may render necessary. All goods or orders are charged much lower prices at E. MOSES and SON'S, than at any other house in the world. GOLD FROM AUSTRAL I A.—The last arrival amount ed to upwards of one and a half millions sterling —a large por tion of which was for business transactions in Australia, by E. MOSES and SON, their CLOTHING having sold for a vast amount of " Golden Treasure," and the satisfaction it is giving, warrants in vestments' to any extent. 111 l ENIGNAME, MERCHANTS, or San , - PERS, may avail themselves of the most SALEABLE, because the BEST and most SUITABLE GOODS, at E. MOSES and SON't', the prices being considerably lower than at any other house—the same advantages are offered to Emigrants of every Class, their Outfits or any portion of them, being charged wholesale prices. A depart ment kept for Outfitting, and full List of Outfits and shipsailing in formation may be had on application, or post frce to any part of the kingdom. CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's the same concerti," has been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have CONNEXION WITH ANY OTHER HOUSE IN 11111 OUT Ow LONDON, except their 9wn Establishments, as fellows : London City Establishment, 154, 155, 156, and 157, Minorics, 83, 84,85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church, all communicating.

SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, and Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medic Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. VI AY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on I V IL the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from juvenile irregu'arities and excesses, which have pro duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience ix the treatment of these sdiseases has proved that there are in exist ence secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous Debility, various torms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri ages, Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless modifications owe their almost entire origin. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incut ring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-Vdulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its con,equences may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and is the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless of the taunts and envy of the hNpocritlcal and mock-modest, has had the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is tree. In selecting this department of practice, he has been amply rewarded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, have inflicted serious injury on those who have been induced to place faith in their pretensions. At home for consultation daily from Eleven till Two, and from Six till Eight. All letters must contain the fee of 11., and advice and medicines can be forwarded to any initials or address.

Diann, yapnontit for forty , On comparison of these two tables it will be seen that a person under the novel system of DEPOSIT assurance can secure the follow ing advantages, viz., l st. For a lees sum, paid annually, he can assure a larger sum in case of death than under the ordinary system. 2dly. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive in this Company, by the above example, which applies to all ages, THREE times as much as on the ordinary system. 3rdly. In the event of inability or omission to pay, his policy remains still his property, of the same value as it was, though he cease his current payments for any number of years; whereas on the ordinary system, he gets nothing. 4thly. Should he require to increase or decrease the amount of his policy, he can do so at pleasure. He can at any time, by giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw any part from 11. up to the whole amount of his previous payments and with interest. After he has withdrawn part one year he can, by a single payment, three years, or any time afterwards, raise his policy to a greater or even Its former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as in a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets Inte rest for his money, and in case of death his family receive more than the amount of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices be can do no such thing, but his policy at once lapses or is cancelled the moment he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of having any fluid to by to for aid, all his hard-earned savings become forfeited to the society, and his misfortunes serve to benefit the pockets of his more fortunate co-assurers.

THE FRENCH EMPIRE. In the Pays there is a long article on the pro bable effect that the influx of gold will have on the relation of trade, and on the question wheth er th e French Government ought to adopt some measure as a provision against the consequences which would otherwise result from a serious alteration in the value of gold. The Pays does not, however, express any decided opinion as to the course to be pursued. The Emperor has just named the Marquis Tur got, ex-Minister of Foreign Affairs, as Ambassador at the Court of Spain, in the place of General Aupick, lately nominated as Senator. About three o'clock the day before yesterday, says the Constitutionnel, the Emperor tried a horse for a short time in the court-yard of the Tuileries. A number of persons had assembled along the iron railings, admiring the skill and dexterity with which his Majesty mastered the noble animal. We read in the - Moniteur :—" Some foreign journals have published pretended copies of the sermon which the Abbe Lacordaire delivered in the church, of St. Roch on the 12th of February last, in presence of the Archbishop of Paris, in favour of the Christian schools. These copies having contained odious attacks against the Go vernment, the Minister of Public Worship wrote to the Archbishop of Paris to inquire how fax they were exact. He received the following • reply : !, Monsieur le Ministre,-I,teceived with your letter of the 12th of March, the extracts of the Observateur Beige, containing the pretended exordium of the sermon which the Abbe Lacordaire delivered at St. Roch in my presence. Neither my grand vicar nor myself have been able to discover in these extracts, which are said to have been taken down in short-hand, the sermon which we heard. During an hour, which the improvisation of the celebrated Dominican lasted, I only remarked, as I wrote in my preceding letter, some inopportune quotations, and some words which Father Lacordaire pronounced quite simply, but which, I saw clearly, party spirit and malignity could lay hold of, for the purpose of seeking for allusions which were far, I am convinced, from the mind of the speaker. So little is necessary to change into epigrams inoffensive words I That is what has been done with the sermon of Father Lacordaire ; in which phrases have been inserted in an inexact manner, either by additions or by changes of words, as we have posi tively perceived in reading the extracts which you were pleased to forward to me. I have nothing more to say, Monsieur le Ministre, unless that I will never permit the Christian pulpit to be made a political tribune, or the liberty of the Holy Word to degenerate into licence. That is my duty, and I shall take care to perform it. Your Excellency can make any use you please of this letter. Accept the assurance of my high consideration. " DENIS AUGUSTE, Archbishop of Paris." The Echo of Valenciennes states that the deputa tion of the beet-root sugar manufacturers, who had come to Paris to have an interview with the Minis ter of Finance, had returned with the hope that their claims on the subject of the duties would meet with just attention. The Esperance du Peuple of Nantes has received notice from the Procureur Imperial of that town, that the Government had decided that no prosecu tion should be instituted against it, as was at first intended for the erroneous intelligence which it had published of a domiciliary visit having been made by the police, in the hotel of M. de Rothschild in Paris. AT a numerous and highly respectable MEET ING of MERCHANTS and TRADERS of the CITY of i.uNDON, held at the London Tavern, on Monday, the 14th March 1853, JOHN MASTERMAN, Esq., M.P., in the Chair, was proposed by J. llorsley Palmer, Esq ; seconded by Samuel GregsOn, BEI , ht.P., That in the opinion of this Meeting the present duty of 2s. 21 4 d. per lb. on tea, or from 200 to 250 per cent., is a most oppressive tax upon an article of universal consumption, vrhich enhances the price so considerably as seriously to limit the demand, and that such is directly opposed to the established commercial policy of this coun try. That the effect of this duty upon our commercial relations with China is prejudicial in the highest degree, inasmuch as the trade being principally one of barter, our exports of British menu faetures are dependent upon the extent of our imports from that country—it may, therefore, be fairly expected that our trade would be materially increased, were there a considerable augmentation of the returns at present received from China. That a large reduction of duty is important, inasmuch as tea is a favourite article of consump tion wall the great mass of the people, whose comforts and social habits world be promoted by placing within their reach an accept able and wholesome beverage at a reasonable price. And Rather, that as a Parliamentary Committee, in July, 1847, after a length. ened inquiry, recommended to the House of Commons a considerable reduction of the duty on tea it is highly expedient at this time to urge the Chancellor of the Exchequer to re-consider the Report of the Committee, with a view of submitting to the house a proposal for carrying their recommendation into effect. It was proposed by W. Crawford, Esq. ; seconded by Hugh M. The budget for 1854 was presented yesterday to the Legislative Assembly ; the estimated expendi ture exceeds the receipts by 1,388,630 L, notwith standing the long-desiderated equilibrium. The receipts are ,estimated at 1,528 millions, and the expenses at 1,519. The details will not be known till after the distribution of the budget next week. To this cause, in some degree, as well as to the dis tracted state of Europe, especially in regard to the affairs of Turkey, the heavy fall in the prices of the public securities, which will be observed in the report of the Bourse, must be ascribed. The Assembly has adjourned till the Wednesday after Easter. The Russian Princess de Lieven, whose former relations with Guizot are so well known, and who holds a high rank in the upper circles of Paris, is to be presented on Sunday next at the Court of the Emperor—a fact of considerable political im portance, and in which may be seen the influence of the Russian Ambassador. Generat -- Cene met M. Berger, Prefect of the Seine, at the Horticultural Exhibition, wh en , in reply to a remark of the Prefect, the General said, «We are not only not of the same opinion, M.

The Russian Ambassador having laid before the Sultan his ultimatum, the Divan decided to refuse compliance, and the Sultan sought the protection of France and England. The fleet of Sebastopol was about to sail to the Dardanelles. The Universal Gazette of Prussia, under its Berlin head of the 15th, says :—" The Turkish Govern ment has charged Prussia with the important office of mediating in the dispute between Russia and France on the question of the Holy Sepulchre, that is, between the Roman Catholic Church and the Greek Church. This is not the first time the Porte has appealed to the mediation of Prussia, as in 1790, the Sultan entrusted all her destiny to Pfussia, in making this latter power her arbi trator:" M.

The Bourse has been very dull, and prices of all the securities have sustained a heavy decline. The Three per Cents. closed at 80f. 20c. for the account, being a decline of 80c., and at 79f. 35c. for ca s h, being a fall of 65c. from the prices of Thursday.

Railway Shares, which for the past week have been amending in quotations, partook of the general downward tendency, and all the stocks usually dealt in were called at the close much lower than Thursday.

The Tuscan Government has at length determined upon a measure which has been far too long deferred, and our readers will learn with great satisfaction that the Madiais are released from prison and put on board a vessel at Leghorn bound for Marseilles. The Grand Duke of Tuscany has professed latterly to keep them in confinement, under the infliction of most unmerited pums • hment, for no better reason than the care of hi s own dignity ; and it was alleged on his behalf that how ever he might be disposed to temper the rigour of eccle siastical persecution, he could not yield without some show of independence to the pressing solicitations brought to bear against him. In our judgment it would have been a wiser and a manlier course to wipe out at the . earliest possible moment the stain which this transaction has thrown upon the administration of a Prince who was once considered humane, liberal, ,and just. Nothing he can now do will obliterate the fact, that in his domi nions, and under the decrees,of his courts of justice, at the instigation of his public prosecutor, a man and a woman were sentenced to ignominious punishment, which . they underwent, not without peril to their lives, for the offence of reading the Bible and usine , the English Book of Common Prayer. That was the latest, though not, we fear, the last, effort of the spirit which founded the Inquisition. Though Europe has still very little reason to boast of her progress towards political freedom, this outrage on religious liberty was regarded as an anachronism, and an outrageous attack on those rights of conscience which ought at least to be secure in the harids of justice. The feelings of indignation which th e con d emnation of the Madiais excited were honourable to the Protestrnit na tions which joined in advocating their cause, and we would fain believe that amongst our Roman Catholic fellow-countrymen there were many who viewed this abuse of power with as much pain and aversion as were ' felt by ourselves. But although it is long since any case has occurred to rouse in an equal degree the resent- ment that follows persecution, it cannot be doubted that this iniquitous sentence marks the revival of a spirit in the Roman Catholic Church which is not peculiar to the priests and the Government of Tuscany. Under different forms and to a different extent, but with the same object, the pretensions of the Ultramontane party in the Church are, gga z igge the same,, profess in tolerance tte hi.o7t itsolifte ; they would convert the Church to which they belong, and its whole hierarchy, into one great engine of spiritual despotism under Papal authority ; they condemn and dispute the national and diocesan rights which have hitherto been cherished by many of the ablest and most sincere champions of that creed ; and they would conver t the religious unity, which is the basis of their system, into the most absolute spiri tual bondage which ever oppressed mankind. In Italy the opposition to the extreme doctrines of the priestly party is secret, for it is denouned as schismatic and pun ished as heretical. Even these proceedings against the Madiais were unquestionably suggested by a desire to intimidate a class of thinkers who have eagerly embraced the tenets of a purer faith. But in France the Roman Catholic clergy are themselves openly divided on these questions, and the agitation kept up by the Ultramon tane school of writers has been condemned by no less an authority than the Archbishop of Paris, who is cited by them in his turn to defend himself before the Pope. In the 17th or 18th centuries these opinions would have assumed the shape of a sermon or a pamphlet, to be condemned and burnt perhaps by order of the Sor bonne. In our time they take the more convenient p.nd effective form of a newspaper, and, accordingly, M. Louis Veuillot, himself a layman and the editor of a paper called L' Univers, has assumed the functions of an eccle siastical censor, defending the most absolute propositions for which the Order of the Jesuits has ever contended, denouncing all that is national and independent in the Church of France, and asserting, in unqualified term; the unlimited supremacy of Rome. The Archbishop of Paris, being of opinion that many of these views are exaggerated, and that it is subversive of the order of the Church in his diocese that a lay agent of the Pope should write down his authority, has spiritually condemned the journal in question, and ordered his clergy and the faithful not to read it. Some other French pre lates have done the same, for at this moment the condemnation of the Univers is the criterion of Gallican opinions. Others, on the contrary, and especially the Bishop of Moulins, have impugned the act of the Archbishop with the greatest violence. The Archbishop has retorted by a letter to his reverend brother of Moulins, which he has published, and which certainly is not written in a tone of pastoral serenity. M. Veuillot, in the meantime, has started for Rome, leaving the prelates of France by the ears, and proceeds without more ado to invoke the judgment of the Pope on his newspaper, or, in other words, to cite the Metro politan of France to answer at the judgment-seat of the Vatican for this exercise of his authority. With consid-.. erable address M. Veuillot has first endeavoured to obtain a suspension of the interdict placed on his news paper, pendente lite, which would amount to a partial reversal of the archiepiscopal decree. He has also ob tained from the Monsignore who writes the Pope's Latin letters a very elaborate testimony to his known zeal and orthodoxy. Thus far the case looks ill for the Archbishop, for, after all, the cause of M. Veuillot is that of Rome herself, and we know not if we are to expect of Pius IX. a condemnation of any amount of intemperance on behalf of the Papal supremacy. Yet it may prove no less inconvenient to humble and rebuke the most emi nent and independent members of the French clergy, especially at a moment when hopes have been held out to • the Pope by the French Government of concessions to his authority of a more positive character. The Government of France is undoubtedly embarrassed by the violence of thi s di spu t e between a class of men whom it desires to unite in common devotion to Louis Napoleon's interest ; and an ecclesiastical quarrel is an awkward prelude to the Pontifical visit which Pius IX. is so ardently solicited to pay. With a view to that great object of the Emperor's ambition, to which he is disposed at this moment to make every other consideration give way, and also for the purpose of conciliating the most energetic party in the Church, the Government has avoided committing itself decidedly to either side. The Pope's journey to France, if ever takes place, and the termination of the solemnities already in preparation. may either have the effect of giving a momentary advan• tage to the Pontificial party, or of releasing the Govern ment from the obligations it is now politic to observe. But the questions which have been raised of late in all countries by the revival of claims which had long slum bered in the bosom of the Romish Church are not of a nature to be easily or speedily set at rest. They con cern the very essence of that power in its nearest rela. tions to modern society and civil government. They are persecution in Italy ; they are a new-fangled hierarchy in England ; they are absolutism and the Jesuits in Austria ; .they are opposition and resistance to the Siccardi laws in Piedmont ; they are Ultramontanism and the repeal of the organic articles annexed to the Concordat in France ; everywhere a cause to be gained ; everywhere a step to be won towards the grand and unchanging object of the spiritual subjection of the world. In the present state of Europe, that mysterious influence alone forces its way through military cordons and above absolute de crees . Th a t P ower a l one raises itself with the tenacity of a parasitic plant wherever an authority holds its ground against the movement of the age. If it be held in check at all, it is mainly by the force of public opinion in this and other Protestant countries ; for as we examine the condition of the Con tinent we are more and more convinced that emancipa tion from the yoke of the Papacy is the first element of national independence, and that there are no lasting civil rights where there is no religious liberty. The expan sion of the power of Rome in these later times is inti mately connected with the almost universal sway of ab solute Government ; and whenever that unnatural state of political control is shaken Rome will probably share the fate of those who have sought her aid to prolong the bondage of mankind.

M. Inerg, the printer of the speech, was sentenced to five months' imprisonment. We extract the following from the Gazette de France : "A letter from London states :—' On Sunday last, at the conclusion of high mass, a solemn TelDeum was sung in the parochial church of St. Alexis, in thanksgiving for the preservation of the life of his Majesty the Emperor of Austria.' St. Alexis is a new Catholic foundation in Kentish-town, a large suburb of London, which has long been noted for its salubrity. This foundation, ' which owes its establishment to the present incumbent, the Rev. Harding Ivers, has excited much interest in England and on the continent, in consequence of the progress of Catholicism in the neighbourhood. .The rev. incumbent was formerly preceptor to two royal princes, who are allied to most of the reigning houses of Europe, and from all these august families this interest ing foundation has obtained marks of favour. Thus St. Alexis ranks amongst its principal benefactors the mem bers of the Imperial family of Austria, whose eminent private virtues shed lustre on royalty. It is easy to conceive that on this occasion the parishioners of St. Alexis should, in conformity with the intentions of their pastor, have offered up thanks to Heaven for the pro tection God has granted to a Monarch dear alike to the Church and to his own States." ITALY. A letter from Milan, in the Moniteur, says— " The authorities are gradually diminishing the severity of the police measures ; but they still con tinue to display great activity in their efforts to discover the persons who took part in the insurrec tion of February 6. It is said that Marshal Ra detzky is to come to Milan, and that General Gyu lay is to take the command of the corps d'armee at Veresa. This change will take place, perhaps, when the troops shall be more considerable." A letter from Nice, of the 13th, in the Parla mento of Twin, states that several persons expelled from France had arrived there latterly, and that at the above date twenty individuals more of that description were brought before the police authorities. _ . . -- In its sitting of the 14th the Senate of Turin re jected by 25 votes to 24 the bill for the reorganisa tion of the Chambers of Commerce, which had already passed the Chamber of Deputies. It after wards passed a measure relating to bills of exchange upon persons not engagid in trade. In the same sitting the Minister of Public Works presented the submarine Spezia and Sardinia electric telegraph bill, already passed by the Chamber of Deputies. The Parlamento of Turin quotes a letter from Genoa of the 11th, stating that, according to the last accounts from Naples and Palermo, many ar rests have taken place there.

COLLEGE of HEALTH, Ilamilton•place, .New-road, London. The principles of the HYGE IAN or ..nOttISONIAN SYSTEM are contained in the following propositions:- 1. The vital principle is in the blood. 2. Everything in the body is derived Lom the blood. 3. All constitutions are radically the same. 4. All diseases arise from impurity of the blood, or, in other words, from acrimonious humours lodged in the body. 5. Pain and disease have the same origin, and may therefore be considered synoavmous. 6. From the intimate connexion substiting between mind and body, the health of the one must conduce to the serenity of the other. 7. Proper purgation by vegetables is the only effectual mode of eradicating disease. 15. Tue discovery of a vegetable compound, capable of being di gested, and mixing with the blood, so as to impart to it that energy requisite for ridding the body of all impurities, was a desideratum. 16. This discovery was made by JAMES MORISON, the Ilygeist, in the composition of the VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINE ( Morison's Pills), of the British College of Health, Hamilton-plats, New-road, London.

Matheson, Esq., That inasmuch as protracted discussions upon alterations of duty detrimentally affect the interests of all parties both here and abroad, promote undue speculation, and tend to diminish the amount of duties received for the revenue, it is highly desirable that any reduc tion proposed as regards the tea duties should take ,ffect with the least possible delay. It was proposed by G. T. Brain, Esq. ; seconded by Lewis Huth, Esq. That as regards the extent of reduction, i.his meeting is fully im pressed with the importance of it► being of such a magnitude as would secure to the people a difference in price sufficiently important to en sure such increased consumption as would promptly restore any temporary deficiency in the revenue. It was proposed by Richard Twirling, Esq., jun.; seconded by John Entwistle, Esq., That the following Memorial be signed, for presentation to the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, conveying to him the views of this Meeting on the subject, and that the same be handed to him by John Masterrman, Esq. M.P., and Samuel Gregson, Esq., M.P. It was proposed by J. Ingram Travers, Esq. ; seconded by Jas.

To THE RIGHT HON. WILLIAM HWART GLADSTONE, M.P., CHAN CELLOR OR Hut MAJESTY'S EXCHEQUER, &C. The Memorial of the undersigned Merchants ant Traders of the City of London. Showeth,—That your Memorialists are deeply interested in the trade with China, or engaged in the sale of tea. That your Memorialists consider the present duty charged upon tea to be exorbitant and oppressive, and most Inconsistent with the avowed commercial policy of the nation, of securing to the mass of the people all necessary articles of consumption at the cheapest pos sible rate. That this excessive duty interferes most seriously with the con sumption of tea. That the natural development of the China trade (in most in stances one of barter) is greatly impeded by the imposition of a high duty upon one of the principal articles of import, as the extent of British manufactures to be introduced into that country must be regulated by the returns of China preducts,which_we are enabled to consume That your Memorialists consider that could returns be taken from China in sufficient quantity, the exportation of British manufactures would be increased to an enormous extent, China being not only the most populous country in the world, but its inhabitants are probably the most dress-loving people and the most prone to the indulgence of cheap luxuries of any nation with which we are acquainted. That your Memorialists are convinced that the reduction of the duty on tea will ensure a largely increased consumption of that article. That the loss of revenue occasioned by a reduction of duty would be speedily repaired by such increased consumption, provided the reduction were sufficiently important to cause a sensible diminution in the price, and one which would be felt by the mass of the people, whose purchases, though made in very small quantities, are enor mous in the aggregate. That the duties imposed by the Chinese tariff on British goods varies from 5 to 7 per cent., while the duty on tea, their staple export to Great Britain varies from 200 to 250 per cent.—st fact which should induce the Government of this country to take the earliest opportunity of lessening the excessive duty now charged thereon. That independently of commercial views, the extended consump tion of tea In this country may be deemed a moral and social qu Ca tion of great importance. Tea yields a wholesome and agreeable beverage to every class of the population, one that is increasingly desired as a subs* ittite for intoxicating liquors, and is peculiarly valued by the humbler classes, whose comforts would be increased, and whose social habits would be improved were the cost of so important an article of consumption materially reduced. That in reference' to navigation, a large reduction is important. Tea is a light and bulky article, requiring considerable tonnage in proportion to its value; the continued emigration to Australia will direct a large amount of shipping to the southern hemisphere. a part of which, proceeding to China, would find profitable employment, were a large additional quantity of tea required in this country. That your Memorialists would further mention that during the past six years, while the shipments of tea from China to Great Bri tain have only increased from 57,600,001 lbs. to 65,000,00611 m, the ex ports of tea to the United States, where no duty is imposed, have in creased from 18,000,0001b5. to 34,300,000 lbs.,—a striking illustration of the expansive power of the tea trade if relieved ttom burthensome and oppressive duties. _ _ That in our colonies and dependencies where tea is free or lightly taxed, the consumption is, in oroportion to the population, in some cases two, in others three to one more than in this country, a tact which further strongly illustrates the capability of greatly increased consumption. In conclusion, your Memorialists will only refer to the elaborate investigation into the working of the China trade by a Committee of the House of Commons in 1847. The Report of that Committee, which entered most fully and ably into all questions arising out of this important branch of our commerce, contained the following re commendation to the house : " Your Committee think themselves warranted in recommending to the house a considerable reduction in the duty on tea at the earliest period which in iti wisdom it may see fit, a ..1 most desirable in itself, with a view to the comforts and the social habits of the people, as involving but a temporary loss to the Revenue, and as essential to the extension of our trade with China, nay, even to its maintenance at the point which it has already reached." Under these circumstances, your Memorialists pray for a liberal and prompt revision of the Tea Duties. London, 14th March, 1853. Baring Brothers aad Co. W. B. Moffatt Matheson and Co. J. J.

General Haynau's death was quite unexpected. On Saturday, the 12th, he joined the circle of generals who had assembled to congratulate the Emperor, at the Bel lazia., and attracted the particular notice of his Majesty, who addressed him on passing, with "A greeting to you, General" (cuss sie,llerr General). On Sunday he was at the Mercantile Union as usual. At midnight he re turned to Munsch's Hotel, where he was lodging, and soon retired to rest. .gt half-past one he summoned his valet, and directed him to fetch a glass of water, as he felt unwell. When the man returned, he found his master gasping for breath ; in short, in the agonies of death. Medical assistance was immediately called in, and an attempt to take blood from the General's arm was made, but in vain. General Haynau had ceased to be. Julius Jacob Haynau was born at Cassel in 17 86, the natural son of the Elector William, and entered the Aus trian service in his 15th year, in an infantry regiment. He obtained a colonelcy in 1830, and five years after wards was made a general of brigade. Promoted in 1844 to the rank of general of division. He commanded at Temeswar in 1847, and in 1848 was with the Bth army corps in Italy. In the following year, when Brescia rose in revolt, Haynau hastened to the spot, took the town by storm, and issued the order which he afterwards thus recorded in his official report : " I commanded that the soldiers should make no prisoners, but that every one should be immediately cut down. I also directed that the houses from which shots proceeded should be set on fire." From that day forward he was called by the people "The Hyaena of Brescia," but by his Sove reign, a Knight Grand Cross of the Order of Maria Theresa. After his retirement from active life, Haynau showed himself very solicitous to avoid the stigma of having ordered the flogging of a lady, but he well knew that in lighting up the streets of Brescia, he was con signing women and children to the most horrible death. Haynau was before Venice when he received the Em peror's commands to repair the disasters of Windisch gratz and Welden, in Hungary, and, with the aid of the Russian Army, acquitted himself of a mission which con tributed nothing to his military fame. Angry at the surrender of Gorgey to the . Russians, Haynau now pro ceeded to wreak his Vengeance on prisoners whom his arms had not vanquished. On the 6th of October, 1849, he executed 13 of the most distinguished leaders of the revolution at Arad, whilst Count Louis Batthyani's mur der was being accomplished at .Perth under his direc tion. Loaded with such rewards as tyrants can bestow, Haynau became capricious, and soon found himself sud denly deprived of the Government of Hungary and removed from the active lists of the army. Since that day he has been a wanderer in Europe, execrated wher ever opinion was free to express itself. It is stated that the visit to Vienna, which was destined to prove his last, was undertaken with the purpose of offering again his active energies in the hanging and shooting service of his Sovereign SPORTING IN TELLIGENOE.
