BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS. The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi cacy of this medicine : "157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850. " Sir,—ln acquainting you with Ihe great benefit which I have ex perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly affected. "About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every va riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th Dragoons, and in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th Hussars. I always pro cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief, and my sufferings can be appreciated only by those who know some thing of this disease. " It was during one of those paroxysms, between twelve and thir teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I lost no time in procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity the pain had entirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect health. " From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to me is so valuable, that were it not that the days of magic have ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause.

The United States mail steam-ship Humboldt, Captain Lines, arrived off Cowes, en route, from New York to Havre, last evening. Her English mails, passengers, and specie, having been tran shipped in the usual way, reached Southampton per tender about ten p.m. The voyage of the Humboldt has been delayed considerably beyond the expected time, in consequence of an accident happening to her machinery, by the breaking of one of the crank pins. The reparation was obliged to be effected at sea, during which time (two days) the Humboldt was deprived of the assistance of her engines. The Humboldt had on board 181 passengers ; amongst whom were Mr. Lewis Cass, jun., United States Minister to Rome, several members of the family of General Dix, Captain Wynam, United States Navy, and Colonel Murray and family. Her specie amounted in value to $670,000, of which $267,000 are for London. The Humboldt's advices are to Oct. 22. The English iron screw steam-ship Glasgow ar rived out at New York, from Glasgow, on the 21st ult. with 380 passengers on board. The Humboldt brings no news of importance. Dates from Vera Cruz had been received at New York to the Bth October. The intelligence reports that the Jesuits were re-established in Mexico, and that General Arista intended witnessing the war betwixt Turkey and Russia. The Sisters of Charity had been rendered bankrupts, through the defalcadons of their cashier, their debt amounting to several hundred thousand dollars, Distressing accounts of the ravages of yellow fever are received from Bermuda to the 12th ult. The disease had assumed the character of a plague, and seemed to baffle the skill of the medical. profession. Brevet Brigadier-General Childs, of the regular army, had died at Tampa Bay of yellow fever. Another steam-boat explosion had taken place. The name of the vessel is M'Daniel. Four per sons were killed and several wounded. The New York Herald publishes a tabular statement of the number of deaths which had taken place on board the emigrant ships arriving at that port subsequent to the 9th September. Of 7,701 passengers, 359 had died, and there is no doubt the cause of death was cholera. The ship Sagada bock, which arrived at Boston on the 21st October, reports that 70 of her passengers had died of that disease. _ _ . Steps were being taken by a party designating themselves the " Irish Confederates of '4B " to give John Mitchell an " appropriate " welcome upon his arrival at New York. A very extensive fire was raging at Louisville when our despatches left. There had been then consumed the greater portion of a whole street, in cluding the Journal newspaper office, a rolling mills warehouse, a large tobacco warehouse, and an extensive drug establishment, together with the whole of their contents. A collison upon the railroad at Coatsville has killed two men connected with trains, and wounded a third rather seriously. The passengers fortu nately escaped unhurt. A Jerusalem plough, and other articles from the Holy Land, had arrived at Boston, for the Crystal Palace. Jullien's farewell concert at New York took place on the evening of the 21st of October. This con cert, although his forty-ninth consecutive one, was crowded to overflowing. The cattle show of the American Institute has closed. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company have decided to increase the rate of toll on coal, com mencing from the Ist of November, to $2 25c. per ton. The previous rate was $1 75c. At Washington, Mr. Bronson had been dismissed by the President from the collectorship of the port. Other changes were also taking place. The panic in the Stock Market had not abated at New York, and a further decline in prices had been submitted. Breadstuffs declined, although latest accounts reported a steadiness in flour. Freights remained firm. In provisions, pork continued to depreciate. The wool market was more depressed, and holders would have accepted lower rates, pro vided they could have effected sales thereby. In cotton little was doing, at irregular rates. Foreign exchange was dull, and bankers' best bills were offered at 109',;, but were not in demand. ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY, 6 . 30 P.M. By the Royal Mail stea - ner Canada we have ad vices from New York to the 25th, and Boston to the 26th ult. She has 275,110 dollars in specie on freight. The Canada passed a large steamer, supposed to be the America, hence for Boston, on the 3d. inst., in lat. 25, long. 50. The news from Washington is unimportant. Telegraphic accounts from Norfolk state that the steamer Northern Light had put in there on the 25th ult., with Californian advices of the Ist of October, and 1,50E1,000 dollars in golddust on freight. The general news presented no feature of in terest. The San Francisco markets were dull, and prices were favourable to buyers. In consequence of derangement in the wires of the telegraph, the further details of the news from California had not been re-rived. The Crescent City steamer had arrived at New Orleans, with Havannah accounts to the 19th ult. The arrival of the new Captain-General was daily looked for with considerable interest. Shipping at Havannah continued scarce, and freights were high. Mr. W. H. Webb, the ship-builder of New York, had been awarded a contract by the Emperor Nicholas to build a line-of-battle ship for the Rus sian navy, of 100 guns, and double engines of 500-horse power, to be propelled by the screw. The packet ship Western World, from Liverpool, with 600 passengers on board, had been wrecked on Squarek Beach, near New York. Passengers and crew saved. The cholera had been very prevalent on board the ships arriving at New York from England and the continent. The number of deaths on 22 packet ships that had arrived there was 359, prin cipally from chOlera. The ship Sagadahock, arrived at Boston from Gottenburg, lost 70 passengers on the passage. The Benjamin Adams and New York, from Liverpool, had had 16 deaths on board each, and the Marmion 34 deaths—all from cholera. A large amount of business had been transacted in the New York stock market. Prices were rather fluctuating, but, upon the whole, a better feeling was manifested. Cumberland Coal Company rdvanced. ; New. York Central Railroad, ; Stonington, ; Haarlem Railroad, : Delaware and Hudson, 21 ; Morris Canal, -4 ; Canton Com pany, ; Nicaragua, ; Reading Railroad, ; Hudson River Railroad, lA ; New York and New Haven, 1; Panama Railroad, 1 ; while New Jersey Zinc declined 4 ; Parker-Vein, : 1 2 ; New York Cen tral Railway Bonds, ; and Crystal Palace, 1 per cent. Money in active demand, but without alte ration. The failure of Messrs. Matthews, Finnegan, and Fox, a highly respectable grocery commission house, had been announced. Foreign exchange dull. London, 109 to 109/ ; Paris Five per Cents., 11i to 13/. ; Amsterdam, 41i to ; Frankfort, 414 to 41 ; Bremen, 804 to 808 ; Hamburg, 36i to 36/ ; Antwerp, 5 13i t) 5 15. The same irregularity in transactions as ad vised per Arabia still continued to pervade the cotton market. The sales from the 18th to the 24th were estimated at 66,000 bales, at a reduction varying from 4to 1 cent per lb. flolders of flour were willing sellers, and a decline of 61c. per barrel on common brands took place, and lower prices would have been taken to make sales. Small sales of Indian corn wore made for good Western mixed and . Southern white. Provisions in good demand, at firm prices for beef and pork. Freights to London.—Flour, 4s. 9d. per barrel ; wheat, ls. 4d. per bushel. SANITARY PROCEEDING UNDER THE FACTORY ACT.— Mr. R. Baker, sub-inspector of factories in the West Riding of Yorkshire, preferred informations before the magistrates at the petty sessions at Otley, near Leeds, on Friday, against Messrs. Baldwin, Brown, and Co., of Yeadon, for not having whitewashed their two mills within the time prescribed. by law. It appeared that in the middle of September, Mr. Baker had visited these mills and found the whitewashing omitted, and that he then directed it to be done ; but on a subsequent visit paid to the same premises a month afterwards, he dis covered that though the walls had been whitewashed the ceiling had not. The magistrates decided it was a bad case, and inflicted two full penalties of 101. and costs. RE-OFENING OF GRACECHURCIFSTREET.—The repairs of this street with wooden blocks, having been completed in a very short space of time, the thoroughfare has been re-opened for traffic, to the great convenience of one of the mast important lines of road in the metropolis. THE BRAZILS. ARRIVAL OF THE BRASILEIRA. LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY. The screw steamer Brasileira, D. Green com mander, the pioneer of the South American Gene ral Steam Navigation Company's line of steamships between Liverpool and the Brazils, arrived in the Mersey shortly after 11 o'clock this morning. The Brasileira has made the entire voyage out and home in '73 days, and brings dates as follows : Buenos Ayres, September 30th, Monte Video, Oct. Ist, Rio do Janeiro 10th, Bahia 14th, Pernambuco 16th, St. Vincent 23, and Lisbon Nov. Ist.. The Brasileira left Rio Janeiro with 100 pas sengers on board, part of whom landed at Bahia, Pernambuco, and Lisbon. Her cargo consists of coffee, wool, hair, and a small quantity of specie and diamonds. The Brasileira left Liverpool on the 24th of Au gust, and encountered a heavy gale in the Channel, but arrived at Lisbon under five days. She called at St. Vincent on the 6th of September, but, the weather not admitting of her coaling quickly, she went on to Pernambuco, and reached there on the night of the 12th, making the passage in 19 days 12 hours from Liverpool, including stoppages. She coaled at Bahia, and reached Rio on the 19th, un der 26 days from Liverpool. After a detention of three days in Rio, discharging cargo, &c., she sailed for Monte Video on the 22d, and reached there on the morning .of the 27th, landing her goods on the 35th day, and at Buenos Ayres on the 36th day, from Liverpool --a thing unprece dented in the commercial annals of that country. The Brasileira left Monte Video on her return on the Ist of October, and arrivecl , at. Rio Janeiro on the 6th, having experienced' contrary winds and much head sea. She remained at Rio till the 10th, and has, therefore, made her return voyage in the same time as the outward one (26 days), having had to steam the entire, distance with very littla assistance from her canvass—a result that gives another signal triumph to the screw. Out of the 73 days consumed on the voyage, she was 17 days in port, making 56 days for nearly 14,000 miles of distance, or an average of fully 240 miles a-day. The Lusitania, another of the company's steamers, also built by Mr. Laird, underwent a trial trip on Friday between Liverpool and the North-West Light-ship, and attained an average speed of 12i knots per hour at the measured distance between the North-West Ship and Bell Buoy. This rate of steaming gives every hope of the Lusitania even ex celling the Brasileira's performance. On arriving at Lisbon on the homeward passage, the Brasileira was placed in quarantine, where she remained for 24 hours, coaling, &c. Mr. Hadfield, the secretary of the company, went out in the steamer Argentina, and has re turned in the Brasileira. From him every facility has been received, as also from Captain Green and the purser. The Brasileira passed the company's steamers Olinda, within a few hours' sail of Pernambuco, and the Lady Eglinton (steamer of the 24th of October) to the northward of Lisbon. The Royal mail steamer Severn arrived at Rio Janeiro, from Southampton, on the Bth of October. The following vessels had called at the Cape Verds ptior to the 23d of October :—The Royal West India Mail Company's steamer Camilla, from England, on the 16th of October, and sailed again on the 19th, for the Brazils ; the General Screw Company's steamer Harbinger, from England, ar rived on the 19th, and sailed again on the 20th ; the Hamburg steamer Emilie, on the 21st, from Liverpool, and sailed again on the 22d ; the brig Atalanta, from Swansea, with patent fuel ; the Wil liam Pitt and Penelope, from Cardiff, with coals ; the "United States' brig-Of-war Perry, of the African squadron • and the trader Samuel Rogers. The following is a list of the Btitish and foreign vessels of war at the different ports of call :—At Buenos Ayres, the Brazilian steamer Thetis, and. brigs Birniz and Eoleo. At Monte Video, English steamers Vixen and Locust ; the French war ves sels Chasseur, Galatea, and Andromede ; the Spanish steamer Luiz Fernando ; and Brazilian steamer Amazonas, and corvettes Emma Francesco and Imperial Marinheiro. At Rio Janeiro, the Crescent, Bonita, and Centaur. At . Bahia, the Star, English. At Cape Verds, the United States' brig Perry. - - The Brasileira brings accounts of the steamer Argentina, belonging to the same company, having made a most successful debut in the river Plate. She arrived at Monte Video on the 11th of Septem ber, and it appears that from the 14th, when she made her first trip to Buenos Ayres, up to the Ist of October, when she brought down the mails and passengers for the Brasileira, she had steamed 2,000 miles of distance, including a trip of some 300 miles up the river Parana. In Buenos Ayres all remained quiet, and business in imports was brisk. The advices from Monte Video are to the Ist of October. Great excitement had existed there for several days, and a change of Government had finally taken place, owing in a great measure to the refusal of the President Giro to comply with the reiterated supplications of the moderate party that he would remove certain military commanders of the interior towns, who had conducted them selves obnox'ously to the more enlightened part of the people by their conduct during the late war. After several days of suspense, the President took refuge in the French Consulate, giving out that he did so for self-protection, and he has since considered it advisable to embark on board the French frigate Andromede, accompanied by his friend and Minister, Don B. Berro. A provisional Government had been formed, composed of Ge • nerals Rivera, Lavallejo, and Flores, the last named marching . into the interior with a strong body of troops, in order to suppress any at tempt against the authority of the new Govern ment. From the despatches received, however, the majority of the departments had declared in favour Of the change. The Ministers named by the Pro visional Government were :—Don Juan C. Gomez, Foreign Affairs ; Colonel D. LOrenzo Battle, War and Marine ; and Don Santiago Sayago, Finance. Trade had been much depre sse d by th above dis turbances, but it was hoped it would soon improve again. There was a lar g e naval force at Monte Video, chiefly French and Brazilian. There was no news of importance from either Bahia or Pernambuco. The yellow fever had en tirely disappeared at both places. At Pernambuco the necessary capital had been subscribed for the formation of a company to run steam-boats from that port to Ceara, ' and intermediate ports to the northward, and to Maceio to the south. From Lisbon there is no particular news. The Queen's accouchement was hourly expected. Her Majesty's steam-frigate Odin was the only English vessel of war at Lisbon. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, Nov. 5.

The inhuman atrocity perpetrated at Burnham Abbey has excited the inhabitants of the district for miles around ; and from an early hour on Saturday morning up to an advanced period of the evening, Burnham Abbey Farm, the scene of the murder, has been visited by hun dreds. Indeed, since the murder committed by Tawell some eight years ago, at Slough, about two miles from here, nothing approximating to the horror now enter tained has been witnessed or could have been antici pated. It has been already stated that the groom, Moses Hatto, was apprehended on suspicion of being the murderer, but it yet remains to be explained up on what ground his arrest was decided on by the police, inasmuch as the facts were not elicited before the coro ner. It appears from the statements of Superintendent Perkins, of Eton, Superintendent Thomas, of Slough, and Superintendent Symington, of Burnham, in whose hands the case h a d been placed by the magistrates, that, notwithstanding the perfect freedom which Hatto had enjoyed subsequent to the discovery of the burning body of the deceased, their suspicions of the man's guilt were strong, and as they silently yet minutely inves tigated the circumstances attending the awful occur rence, they became further fortified, the result of which was their decision to arrest him on the charge on Fri day morning. Upon taking Hatto 'into custody at the farm, he deported himself in a manner which, to their experienced judgment in criminal matters, betrayed the insolence of a person studying to play the character of one innocent of the crime, yet betraying in the boldness of the embodiment the reverse of the impression that a consciousness of innocence might have made. The pri soner was not then aware of the matter in possession of the police, nor, indeed, is he at this moment, and con sequently he preserves the same insolent bearing in the police station at Eton, where he is now under remand. The three superintendents, acting upon the informa tion furnished by Mrs. Bunce, wife of the foreman of Mr. Goodwin's arm,-off the- deceased's complaint to her a few hours before the murder, of the offensiveness of Hatto in his language, gleaned the fact of the young woman having, on the night prior to her unhappy death, been to Burnham village to post some letters, and of her being accompanied a portion of the distance home by a former fellow-servant named John Marsh, of Mills Farm, Brittle, who had been paying her some attention, and whose regards were reciprocated. This, it appears, had considerably augmented the dissatisfaction of Hatto, who, also had been manifesting an affection for the de ceased, who so far from encouraging his passion, re pulsed him, and, indeed, treated his advances as ema nating from one beneath her in station, she, in fact, holding the position of housekeeper, while the prisoner, though called a groom, in point of fact only performed the duties of stableman, and was of a disposition far from calculated to impress with faveur a young woman of taste, such as undoubtedly the deceased was for one in her walk of life—a fact amply testified by the little matters found in the unfortunate girl's bed-room subse quent to the butchery inflicted upon her. The police, having satisfied themselves of the jealous feeling of the prisoner, then closely examined the premises, and found, from the statement of Mr. Goodwin, the deceased's master, that her constant custom, prior to retiring to bed, was to take whatever plate might have been in use during the day from the sideboard-drawer in the par lour, and lock it up in an upstairs room. On the night of the murder the plate was not removed from the ground floor, nor was it at all disturbed—a fact fully convincing the officers that no burglar had committed the atrocity. It was also perfectly clear to them that the few rings and two pencilcases missed by her master had been taken, not for their intrinsic worth, but merely to give a colouring for suspicion of a robbery, whereas, if plun der had been the object, there was a valuable quantity of plate easily removable. There is in the room where the deceased was burning fearful evidence of a desperate struggle with her assassin ; and so, indeed, is there in the narrow gallery leading to the apartment, and on the walls of which are several impressions of, from the size, a female hand stained with blood. Subsequent to the violence here used, the last and most desperate effort of the deceased is presented by the appearance of her bed room. The body was found lying before the fire-place, the head in the direction of the window. Marks of blood are in various parts of the room, a complete splash being as far up as the mantel-piece, while on one side of the floor, near the bedstead, are drops of blood, as if they had trickled down while the poor woman was flying about in the hope of escaping with life, or at least pro longing existence. The police officers have gleaned from the foreman Dunce a material contradiction of a statement made by Hatto, on the first day.of the coroner's inquiry. The prisoner stated, hearing the dog barking, he alarmed Dunce ; but the latter most positively asserts that he was not called to by him. His statement is that, hear ing the dog bark, he got up and went to the window of his bedroom, which he opened and looked' through for the purpose, listening, his wife observing that no doubt some birdcatchers were about the adjoining hedges. At length hearing footsteps in the yard at the rear of his master's dwelling, he called aloud, and for some minutes received no reply. Calling, again, however, while in the act of dressing himself, the prisoner came to the yard-wall separating his (Bunce s) cottage from that area, and said, "It's me. The colts have got out, and I've come to tell you." If this statement be correct, the police consider that their prisoner ought to have answered when first challenged by Bunce. The state ment of Mrs. Bunce is, that she heard Hatto call to her husband, but the latter persists that she was asleep when he first cried out " Who's there ?" and that she only awoke at the moment when the accused replied to his repeated summons. Such are the grounds of suspicion upon which the officers are acting, but it is right to observe that they have just become masters of grave facts, which they do not consider themselves at present justified in disclosing. The police, assisted by the farm labourers, have been searching the water-closets and other places about the premises, in the hope of discovering the rings and two pencil-cases, stolen from Mr. Goodwin's dressing-table, but as yet their search has not proved successful. The clothes worn by Hatto on the evening of the murder were taken by Superintendent Symington to London, to be submitted to Professor Taylor for an analysis. THE FRAUDS UPON THE LIVERPOOL CORPORATION. - - William Rowson (contractor) and William Clark (clerk), whose cases were remanded on the 29th ult., were again brought before the magistrates at the Liverpool Police Court, on Saturday, and after a lengthened examination were committed for trial at the assizes. They were admitted to bail—Rowson in 1,0001. and two sureties in 500 g. each, and Clark in 5001. and two sureties in 2501. each. ROBBERY AT THE POST-OFFlCE.—Another of those peculiar and mysterious robberies which, of late, have been so frequent in the metropolis, took place on Thurs day night, at the.branch post-office in Lombard-street, and from the manner in which it was accomplished there is little doubt that it must have been committed by members of a practised gang. The office, as our readers may be aware, is situate in a.narrow court lead ing but of King William-street into Lombard-street, and at the close of the day's post is left in charge of the housekeeper and some attendants, who occupy the floor above the letter department. On the place being opened on Friday morning, it was discovered the office had been entered by a window which overlooks the small yard ad joining St. Mary Woolnooth church, access to which could be obtained by scaling the church railings in'King William-street. The window is protected by several iron bars, spiked ; but it seem s th ere is sufficient space at the top to admit of an expert burglar,, after lowering the window, to pass through, and drop into the office. It was by this means that the entry was effected. The drawers were ransacked, and there is little doubt that the burglars anticipated finding a number of money and other valuable registered letters, awaiting despatch by the various foreign mails, situate, as the branch is, right in the heart of the banking establishments. In the an ticipated existence of such spoil, however, they were disappointed.. They broke open one of the desks,' and stole 41. or Si. in gold and silver, but a drawer which contained 170/, in gold escaped their notice. • In the absence of things more valuable they took possession of some of the clerkir clothing, and depositing the whole in a letter bag, the thief put on, it i 4 thought, a postman's coat, and 'opening the door, marched up the court into the street, and so got clear off. Considering the exposed situation of the yard under the window, it is somewhat remarkable how the robbers could have found an oppor tunity to enter the place without being observed, as persons are passing at all hours of the night. —Dispatch.

" Considerable doubt still persons who lost their live! Patrick's-bridge, but the general opinion is that the number did not exceed seven or eight. A young woman named Crowly, who had a most providential escape, thus describes the scene she witnessed :—Crossing the bridge at half-past twelve o'clock, she stopped, with others, to look at the dreadful flood ; behind her was a woman with two nicely-dressed childreri, one in her arms, endeavour. ing to hasten forward. The ground suddenly cracked at her feet, a crash was heard, she sprang forward, and was saved ; looking back she saw the woman and two , children fall down the fearful chasm and instantly perish. ) The right wheel of an outside car passing at the moment was caught by a fissure ; the driver violently whipped his horse, the animal dashed forward, the wheel was dis entangled, the vehicle, driver, and one lady who sat on the off side were saved, but two ladies who sat on the - right side were precipitated by the sudden jerk front , their seat, and fell with the heap of ruins into the raging torrent. A woman named Fitzgerald, with a ' basket on her arm, going with her husband's breakfast, having fallen in, held for a little while by a broken ballustrade which lay above the surface of the water, but quickly dislodged, she was borne away still floating below the bridge. A woman named Roche, who lived near the North Chapel, and three yoking men, labourers from Killeens, of excellent character, named Murphy, Callaghan, and Finnegan, are said to be among the sufferers. The names of two of the women. who lost their lives by the falling of the bridge, have been ascertained to be Margaret Lynch and Catherine Daly. It was arranged that they should meet on Patrick's-bridge at twelve o'clock, and unfortunately for themselves they were too punctual to their appoint ment. Margaret Lynch was a married woman, and lived in Brown-street ; the other woman, Catherine Daly, re sided at Gardiner's•hill. " Amongst the persons supposed to have been lost by the falling of the bridge, is a young man named Buckley, who was employed as a porter in the establishment of Mr. James Hogg, Patrick-street. Buckley left the shop at a quarter 'past eleven o'clock on Wednesday, with orders to call with goods at some places over the bridge, - and has not been heard of since. He was a married man, and leaves a wife and child to deplore his probable loss. "A man named Cornelius Delea, a labourer, from the neighbourhood of Barrack street, is missing since Wed nesday, and is supposed to have been drowned off the bridge. As yet !none of the bodies have been found, and it is very doubtful whether any of them will be re covered. "On last evening, under the direction of the magis trates about 150 families received tickets for relief in the shape of coal, bread, and straw, through the agency of the mayor's secretary, Mr. Pierce Fitzgerald, assisted by two of the constabulary. This morning 250 families re ceived similar relief. At an early hour the mayor per sonally visited several houses in the Marsh for the pur pose of ascertaininr , their condition, and the best mode of affording some alleviation of the privations they had to undergo. "It is somewhat singular that the inhabitants of Queenstown, Monkstown, and Passage were quite igno ' rant of the destruction that was going on through the city. Several ladies left Queenstown and Passage for the purpose of making purchases in Cork, but were glad to escape to their respective homes with the least pos sible delay. -?/- rmay contains the following .e lameiltibVii& e pt*, , -4,,,,h l ible .

WINDSOR CASTLE THEATRICALS. The first of the series of royal dramatic entertainments, presented for some seasons past before her Majesty, Prince Albert, and the royal family, at Windsor Castle, will be given next Thursday evening, in the Rubens'-room, as on former occasions. The arrangements will, as here tofore, be under the direction of Mr. Charles Kean. Mr. Phelps, the distinguished actor, and lessee of Sadler's Wells Theatre, has been complimented by being se lected by her Majesty to inaugurate the representations this year by the performance of Shaksperc's historical play of King Henry the Fifth, as revived by him at his theatre.

FRENCH ARCHIVES.—The Minister of the Interior, says the Moniteur, who has given an active impulse to the re-organisation and classification of our departmental archives, recently ordered some researches to which we shall be indebted for a series of documents valuable to science and history. Having heen informed that the greater part of the parchment employed by the Artillery for making gun cartridges came from the old archives dispersed at different periods, the minister requested his colleague of the War Department to order these parchments to be collected and submitted to the exami nation of a special inspector of archives. This in vestigation has been attended with favourable re sults. Out of 4,000 cartridges which have been un sewn and examined at the artillery depot in Paris, 3,000 produced very important documents connected with our history. Among them were 1,200 pages of the old manuscript accounts of the Kings of France, Charles VI., VII., and VIII., Louis XI. and XII., Francis 1., &c., These lists of expenses, by pointing out the employment of the budgets of these different reigns, throw light on many points of our national history. They interest at the same time the annals of diplomacy by mentioning the personnel of the envoys as well as the object and the expense of each missio n ; the histor y of the arts, by stating the orders given to painters, musicians, statu aries, architects, &c. ; picturesque history of furniture, costumes, &c., by giving the names and exact descrip tion of each object, with the price affixed ; and lastly, the history of the habits of the court, and manners in general, by the details of the gifts and alms granted to the persons of the suite of the kings, or to those who met the royal cortdge ; gentlemen, soldiers, and ad venturers wounded in war ; girls to marry ; pilgrims ; hermits : poor persons affected with king's evil, waiting for the king to touch them ; and others with all kinds of diseases.

THE SUFFERERS BY THE LATE FLOOD. One of the most important and influential meetings that was ever held in the city of Cork, was held on Thurs ' day last, on the requisition of the Mayor and magistrates, for the purpose of opening a subscription list towards relieving the numerous poor who are sufferers by the recent flood. The meeting represented every class and section of our community, and the proceedings were con ducted with an amount of harmony and zeal for the suc cess of the object in view, that was creditable in the highest degree to all parties concerned. Amongst the gentlemen present were—the Mayor, General Maunsell, the Right Rev. Dr. Wilson, Bishop of Cork, Colonel Beamish, Right Rev. Dr. Delaney, Roman Catholic Bishop of Cork • James Murphy, J.P., Ringnahon ; Professor Ryall, Queen's College ; Paul AI'S winey, the High Sheriff, John N. Murphy, J.P., William Fagan, M.P., Archdeacon Kyle, Sir Wm. B. Hacket, &c. His Worship the Mayor presided. A committee having been appointed to receive sub scriptions, and to give orders or tickets to the poor suf ferers, for coal, bread, and other necessaries, Archdeacon KYLE said he thought it only right to mention that Mr. Beale and some of the Society of Friends had placed in his hands a sum of 101., part of which had been expended before an or g ani sa ti on had been arranged. The remainder would be handed over to the committee. The MAYOR—I believe it is my duty, as the chairman on this occasion, to open the list. I will therefore head the list with 201. (hear, hear)—and I regret that I ant not a wealthier man than I am, as otherwise I should desire to rive much more. The subscription list was then entered upon and pro ceeded with the greatest rapidity, money being sent in by gentlemen who could not themselves attend the meet ing. The total sum received amounted to 8001. After some further matters of detail, the meeting, which all through displayed the greatest unanimity, then separated. TREATY WITII PARAQUAY. The London Gazdte of Friday contains the terms of the treaty of " friendship, commerce, and navigation" between her Majesty and the Republic of Paraguay, which was ratified on Wednesday last. It consists of 17 articles, and is signed by Sir Charles Hotham, and "the Paraguayan citizen Franciso Solano Lopez," the President of the Republic, on behalf of the two high contracting parties. The Republic concedes to the mer chant flag of British subjects the free navigation of the river Paraguay as far as Assumption, the capital, and of the right side of the Parana, from where it belongs as far as the city of Encarnacion. British goo d s a to re hr, t e o be admitted on the terms of the most favoured nations ; and, in case of any rupture between the two contracting parties, the subjects of either who may be, established in the dominions of the other are to be allowed to remain in the continuance of their employ ment, and in full enjoyment of their liberty and pro perty, while the public funds of the two countries are never to be confiscated, sequestrated, or detained. Full liberty. of conscience is guaranteed to British residents in Paraguay, and such of them as die there are to be interred in the pubiic burial-places with suitable decorum and respect. British subjects are to be "at liberty to exercise in private and in their own dwellings, or within the dwellings or offices of her Majesty's consuls or vice consuls, their religious rites, services, and worship, and . to assemble therein for that purpose without hindrance or molestation." The Government of the Republic of Paraguay, as a consequence of the national law for the freedom of the offspring of slaves, binds itself to prohibit in the most efficacious manner all the inhabitants of the republic from trading in African negroes. The treaty is to be in force for seven years from the date of its ratification, or may be terminated by proper notice at the' end of six years. . . LATE IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES IN SYRIA AND THE HOLY LAND. Two very extraordinary volumes are now before us. They treat of lands less accessible than remote, but abound with startling incident and adven ture, and establish facts which would be rejected at fables were they not attested by evidence which proven itself. They comprise the narrative of a journey lately undertaken by M. F. De Saulcy, a scholar and a man of science, as also a distin g uished member of the French Institute. The results of exploring tour in districts of the Holy Land seldom trodden by European feet will achieve for him an enduring reputation, and inscribe his name in the records of p osterit y with thosel of Bruce, Burckhardt, Belzoni, Mungo Park, and other early pioneers, who have laid open paths and suggested t sub jects of enterprise t o succeeding travellers.
