London, &c., &e. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con nlecluences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, ob have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man cod, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any Man other class of dis ase known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly leercommended to persons entertaining secret hazard d t heir lhys ca , nefition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is aultled. It Is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are 15 ' 1 ' 4 ' 1 91es of personal management which cannot be violated with out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties andhbe mitigated, ho w th e st i ng of their bitterness may be removed, be the evil and it s consequences maybe avoided, and, above all, tat there is scarcely any degree of ph) sic tl infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot a,:ply a cure.

Ward of the city of Oxford. His reception was of the most gratifying character. Mr. Neate was pre sent and epoke effectively in his support. A show of hands was then taken for Mr. Thackeray, when the meeting appeared unanimous in his favour. In order to obviate the misconception of his views on the Sabbath question Mr. Thackeray has issued the following declaration : "I am desirous that the people who work hard all the week should have the means of relaxation, amuse fment and inst ruc 4ei upon their ,only day of rest. I would to this end open to them picture galleries, museums, scientific collections, and such places as the Cry s t a l Palace near London, where are to be found gardens and flowers, statues and pictures, I and objects th e most h armless. and b eaut i ful. believe the labouring man would enjoy these sights in company with his family, and that the enjoy , ment of them would keep him from intoxication, ' not lead him into if, as opponents of my views fear. Those who have seen our (treat cities know ....._ how the Sunday is often passed, and whether ''''''.. drunkenness is prevented by the present legisla tion. Should the opening of such a place as the Crystal Palace be found to occasion drinking and disorder, which I disbelieve, surely a stop may be put to the sale of intoxicating liquors in that place on the Sunday. I never spoke or thought of open ing Theatres on Sunday. I would try to multiply the means of procuring peace and harmless pleasure for the people on that day, and know that in many theatrical pieces there are jests, and allusions, and situations ill-fitted indeed to any, but especially to the sacred day. I would consent to and encourage good baud music, which has been played before our Sovereigns for a hundred years past ; but would object 0 songs, for the same reason that renders mu averse to plays—because songs may be made vehicles for jokes and buffoonery, which, on such a day, might justly shock the sense of religious persons. And I believe the relaxation of the pre sent system would make many people friendly to the clergy, whom they now suppose to be hostile to their honest pleasures ; would be a means of happiness and union amongst the families of the poor ; and ought not to offend the feelings of any man.—Your very faithful servant, W. M. THACKERAY." (From the Daily News.) A conservative contemporary opposes Mr. Thackeray's return to Parliament, on the ground that he has published novels. The objection comes with a bad grace from the recognised organ of a party whose most prortin , nt leaders in the House of Commons are Mr. Disraeli and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton. It is strange that men will be so scrupulous in demanding proof that a distinguished men of letters has direct -d his attention to politics, who will without previous question support the claims to a seat in Parliament of any successful rail way speculator, however illiterate, or any scion of aristocracy, however imbecile, who is put forward as the candidate of their patty. The qualifications which his opponents affect to desiderate in Mr Thacke ray, are the qualifications required, not in a mem ber of Parliament, but in a member of Administra tion. In this country it is impossible to discover whether a man possesses the talents and acquire. ments requisite for administrative office, except from his career in Parliament; but a man may make a very useful member of Parliament, and yet be unfit to be a Minister. An immense majority of the members of Parliament are of necessity.doomed to be, not administrators, but critics of administrators. To the task of criticising and controlling Ministers a man need only bring such a general knowledge of public affairs as our social habits instil into every educated gentleman, natural shrewdness and com mon sense, a deep sense of the responsibilities he undertakes, and high principle. All these qualifica tions are combined in an eminent degree in Mr. Thackeray. He will represent the scholars of Eng land, as Mr. S. Wortley used to represent the coun try gentle rueir , and Mr. Wilberforce the earnestly religious. The utilityof these twogentienuen in Par liament was entirely independent of any administra tive talent they might possess, and so will be the utility of Mr. Thackeray. He will carry into the House of Commons the opinions and sympathies of an important section of society, whose influence has hitherto been too little felt within the walls of that House. On the contrary, the election of Mr. Cardwell would only add to the number of second or third rate administrators, with whom the House of Commons is already amply supplied. We could be content to peril the result of the Oxford election upon this issue. There is, however, one incident of the canvass to which we would invite the fatten , tion of the electors. A meeting of Nonconformists has addressed four questions to the candidates. Mr, Thackeray replies to all of them by an houest straightforward yes. Mr. Cardwell replies by boasting of the liberality he has shown on former occasious, but evad s a direct answer to any of them. Mr. Thack era y t e ll s f ran kl y w h at hi s in tentions are, though he knows that what pleases some must . necessarily displ ease o th ers. M r . Cardwell shirks a straightforward answer, partly to avoid displeasing anybody, partly to reserve to himself the power to pursue the course most con ducive to his own interests. Electors of Oxford, which of these two anon best deserves to be trusted ? LORD HASTINGS AND THE NEWS PAPER PRESS. In the latter part of last year a dispute occurred at Holt, Norfolk, in regard to the conviction of certain labourers by the local magistrates for tak ing rabbits from a common near the town. The Norfolk News commented rather sharply on the conduct of the magistrates, of whom Lord Hastings was one ; and on the day the first article appeared on the subject his lordship proceeded to the resi dence of the editor, Mr. J. H. Tillett, of Norwich, and had a warm personal altercation with him. Proceedings were commenced against the noble lord for endeavouring to induce Mr. Tillett to fight a duel, and it was expected that the matter would have been investigated at the approaching Norfolk assizes. A day or two since, however, Lieut.-Col. Astley had an interview with Mr. Tillett on the part of Lord Hastings, and the following " minutes" were drawn up of the conversation which took place :---- "Col. Astleystated that Lord Hastings had autho rised him to say that his lordship had no intention of sending a threw ening or offensive message to Mr. Tillett, mentioned in the Norfolk News, of the 29th November last, and that his lordship having had no such intention felt that the article of the 29th cf November last, was an unjustifiable attack upon him, which led to the warmth exhibited by his lordship in his interview with Mr. Tillett ou that day, for which his lordship expresses regret ; and his lordship withdraws the offensive expressions on that olTasion applied to Mr. Tillett ; Mr. Tillett, upon his lordship's disavowal, withdraws any re marks offensive to his lordship in the article above allude I to, and expresses his regret that any un pleasantness should have arisen Let ween Lord Has tings and himself." The quarrel is, therefore, now at an end.

His lordship, we understand, will be unopposed. REDHILL ESTATE. —THE CONSEUVATIVE LAND SOCIETY. public meeting took place on Thursday evening, at the Infant School-room, Redhill, Reigate, to twee into consideration the allotment of the Redhill estate of the society, situated close to the railway-station. The Viscount Ingestre, M.P., took the chair, supported by the Rev. Dr. Worthington, Mr. Morgan, surveyor, and Mr. Gruneisen, secretary to the society. Some objection having been taken to the plan on the ground that the allot ments were not sufficiently small, the deputation E xplained to the meeting that the society's operations were not ex clusively confined to provide plots for low class houses, but were extended to villas of the first class, and that the Redhill property did not admit of being apportioned in small I)ts. At the same time, if an eligible estate for the working classes could be found in the neighbour hood of Redhill or Reigate, the executive committee would be found ready to purchase. This explanation afforded general satisfaction, ani a vote of thanks to O. deputation terminated the proceedings. lA OVERT ISEMENT,]— A few more of the extraordinary cures without Medicine of Ixligestiou (Dyspepsia), Flatulency, Constipation, Nervous, Bilious, and Liver complaints, Cough, Asthma, Consumption, and Debility effected by pa Barry's delicious health-restoring Revalenta Arabica Food, are here given ; Cure 52 3 d April, Bridgehousc , Frimley, d April, 1854.—Thirty-three years' diseased lungs,: the ears, constipation, debility, shortness of breath, and lceugh, liver, have been removed by your Revaleuta Arabica. y ungs, stomach, head, and ears are all r ight, my hearing perfect, and soy recovery is a marvel to all my acquaintances,—Jams ROBERTS, Wood Merchant. _From the Venerable latch• deacon of Ross.—No. 32,836.

Viscount Palmerston, .K.G.' " HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. CLOSE OF THE SEASON. (From the Morning Post.) - Her Majesty's Theatre was reopened for the sea son of 1857 on Tuesday, April 14, with Donizetti's " La Favorita," which served to introduce to the public thr-e new candidates for fame in the persons of Mdlle. Spezia, Signor Vialetti, and Signor Giug lini, who represented the characters of Leonora, Baldassare, and Fernando: The ballet on this m ei-siren was "La Esmeralda," in which Mdlle. Caro lina Poccbini and Filipo Baratti likewise appeared for the first time in England. Mdlle Spezia had al ready mat'with g. eat success at La Scala, Milan ; La Fenice, Venice ; Sau Carlos, Lisbon; and other first-class foreign tlfeatres, where she performed the leading parts in most ofthe tragic operas belonging to the modern Itals.n . school , and gained a special reputation as an executant of 'Verdi's music. The result of her London debut was felicitous, brit still owing probably to nervousness, or the influence of a new climate, Mdlle. Spezia did not on herfirst night realise all that w a expected from her, or lead the public to anticipate the rare excellences which she subsequent:y displayed. Dramatic sen ii meu t o f t h e best kind, a largetsnd grand style o f execu ti on , l and no sniall amourNof vocAl skill were recognised in her delineation ofkliunora ; but the exhibition of these valuable quafiries in all their force and beauty WAS reserved for future occasions. • Madlle. Spezia, achieved her first really great success as Leonora, in "II Trovatore," and this was quickly followed up and confirmed by her performances of part in Men deblsisoahilni'l: ' V ' t L r o d r i e ' ly ‘: ' N (g i i n v e a ti t l' M ch r. ie ß f enediat's - first .oncertat her Majesty's Theatre), and Donna Anna in "IlDon Giovanni." o f the h opera p w e r o a n t rl b € Signor Giuglini mule at once an imm ense bit as Fernando in "La Favorite." Less embarrassed auin the tev enabled eryfirs to scene display t than his fair compsnion, after the first few note; of his d part, ience he was h a r t fu a l powers to th e b es t advantage, and convi nce th e really great singer was before them. He pleased more and mo e as th e p er f o rm ance proceeded, and the curtain finally fell upon one of the greatest and most legitimate triumphs ever achieved within our • recolle 3 ion on the time-honoured stage of her Ma jesty's Theatre. The great desideratum—a, new Italian tenor, with-a fresh and beautifel voice ' pas sion, judgment, and sterling skill — one, i n tact, who could b 3 ranked with the very few really great ones that we already possessed, was .found at last. Many had been tried with more or less success, but still the certain " few" who were and are not with Mr. Lumley remained the best of the best until thO advent of Signor Giuglini, who, take him for all in all, is certainly second to none in existence, and whose transcendent abilities are sufficient in them . - selves to establish a perfect " balance of power" with respect to the tenor d• partwent of our Italian .operas. Signor Giuglini sells,equently appeared as AID e3o in " La Traviata ;" Arturo in "Puritani ;" Edgerdo in ." Lucia di Lammermoor ;" Manrico in "It Trovatore ;" and Don Ottavidin "Il Dsn Gio vanni," besides pertorining at Mr. Benedict's con certs, and in scenes from "Il Pirate" and "I Mar tit i," ou his own benefit night, when be strikingly exhibited h's extraordinary powers of endurance by appearing in no less than five different characters without betraying any signs o f f a tigue. Signor Vialetti, the otrier &Want on the open ing night, impressed the stuelieneee.very favourably. His noble voice (a.cleep ,bass) ga ve due ef f ect to the heavy and pompous music of Bald issare, whilst his acting was honourably distinguished by character istic dignity, breadth of manner, and unfliwging earnestness. He was immerlissely recognised as a genuine and extremely valuable artist ; and his subsequent admirable delinea.ions of Fernando, in " Il Trovatere," Orastaph e , in " Nino," and the Coaamendatore, in " Il Don Giovanni," raised him still higher in public estimation. In the charming ballet of "La Esmeralda," Madlle. Carolina Focchini danced herself into the good graces of the habitues, and gained in one night a reputation which sub wquent efforts tended rather to increase than to The peculiar light ness and vivacity of her movements, the extraor dinary suppleness of her limbs, the perfect origi nality of her steps - and attitudes, excited general admiration, and nightly elicited applause of the warmest kind. It was no small matter to succeed so well in " La Esmeralda," with Carlotta Gs isi still fresh in the memory of the public, and yet Pocchini never failed to obtain an encore for " La Truandaize," and was equally for tunate in her exe fion of another dance called tt zi e garella." Signor Baratti likewise made a successful debut in " Es meralda," and the same ballet also served to intro duce to our notice those clever and accomplished danseuses Mesdlles. Rolla, Pasquali, Morlacchi, Brunetti, and Karliski, whose agile and picturesque execution of a new pas de cinq was greatly and jigs ly admired. Atter three consecutive representations of "La Favorita" with "La Esmeralda," Madlle. Piccolomini, with Signor Belled, and Signor Stecchi B ittardi (a new tenor), appeared on i Tues day, April 21, as Maria, Suloizeo, and Tonio, n "La Figlia del Reggimatt I." Madlle. Piccolomini met with a perfectly oVerwhelming reception, and her general performance proved that she had gained in physical power and strictly musical skill since last year, whilst her acting as the lighthearted vivan diare was vivacious, impulsive, natural, and sym pathetic as ever. The house was crowded to wel come the return of the " little pet"—the "cars bambino," as she has been affectionately termed ; but a still greater concourse was drawn together by the performance of " La Traviata" on the follow ing Thursday, with Piccolomini, Beneventano, and Giuglini (the latter for the first time), in the char acters of Violetta, Giorgio, and Alfredo. The ab surd attacks which have been made upon the libretto of this opera, combined with the enormous attractions of the cast, would more than account for the densely crowded state of the house on this occasion. It was literally " chokefull," as the phrase goes. The last scene again drew forth the tears and praises of t h e audience ; and the gifted little heroine of the dram% received, as on former " Traviate" nights, no end of ovations. This opera was repeated on the succeeding Thursday and Sa turday, April 23 rend 25-: on Thursday and Friday, April 30 and May 1, followed each night by "La Esmeralda ;" and on Thursday, May 7, Madlle. Piccolomini appeared for the first time, and with triumphant success, as Lucia. • This was considered in many respects her greatest performance, and it certainly was, to say the least, a worthy companion .picture to her Traviata. Her acting throughout the so-called "madscene" wastran=eendantly flee. After several consecutive repe . titions of Lucia, Mdlle. Pic colomini reappeared at intervals in "La Figlia" and "La Traviata" with undiminished attraction and effect, and on Thursday, June 11, she essayed for the first time the character of Zerlena, in "Il Don Giovanni," and with. most triumphant success. ficcoloraini's renderiug4 of "La ci Daretn," " Batti Ba ti," and "Vedrai Cariuo" may be ranked amongst her greatest inspirations. Her Zerlina, in deed, was quite a dramatic creation. Unlike any other version of that part we had previously seen, it was truthful in conception and artistic in execu tion as it was fresh iu feeling and original in man ner. On Tuesday, the 28th of April, there was ano ther important debut—that of Madlle. Ortolani, as Elvira, in t I Puritani , " This young lady, although evidently suffering to a painful degree from trepi dation, managed to acquit herself, on the whole, honourably, and met with unequivocal success. "1 Puritani' was repeated several tineee at intervals, and the fair debutante rime gradually in public fa vour until the production of " Dolt Giovanni," when, by her really admirable delineation of the somewhat ungrateful - character of Donna Elvira, she took a veritable pas de geant, and won the un • qualified approbation of the connoisseurs, most of whom pronounced her to be the best Elvi ayet seen on theAnglo-Italian.stage. We ttust that this great success will stimulate her to fresh exertions, especi ally in the 'classic school, for which she seems to have particular ability. The incomparable soprano-col' ralto ' Madame Alboni, made her rent r ee on Tue s day, May 12, as Rosina,in 11 Barbiere," supported by Herr Rei chardt, as Count Alniaviva Beneventano, as Bar tolo ; Vialetti, as Basilic. ; and Belletti, as Figaro. No singer in Europe could sing the music of Ros sini better than Madame Alboni, if as well ; and such another voice as he rs does not perhaps exist. We need not, howeVer, describe its merits. Every musical amateur knowa what an almost unexampled compass it has, how rich, beautiful, and *chroma tic are all its tones—bow wonderful the generally incompatible qualities of force• and flexbility are united in it, and with what consummate skill she ap plies to artistic purposes the rare gifis which nature has so lavishly bestowed upon her. She was most enthusiastically received on her appearance in "Il Barbiere," and her Subsequent delineation of Azucena in " Il Trovatore," though it could add nothing to her fame as a vocalist, revealed his trionic abilities which she was not supposed previ ously to possess. Madame Alboni also re appeared (Tuesday, June 23) as Amina in "La Sonnatnbula," with all the great success of former years, and gained fresh laurels byher chaste and truly classical execution of • selections from Gl.uok's immortal " Orfeo," which Mr. Benedict introduced 'at his second morning concert. Signor Belletti, whose masterly singing-m*lA serve as a model to our rising vocalists, and who is one of the most accomplished disciples of a genuine school of executive art now rapidly passing away, has never perhaps acquitted himself more honour ably, or been more successful with the pub'ic than during the season under notice. He appeared with PiccOlomini as Sulpizio in "La Figlia,'' and subse quently played Giorgio in " I Puritani," Henry -Ashton iu "Lucia," Belcore in " L'Elisir d'Amore, Figaro in " II Barbiere," and Leporello in " Don Giovanni ;" and in each and every one of these arduous characters (although in two instances he had great physical difficuities to contend with) tri umphantly exhibited those rare qualities to which we have endeavoured to do justice. Signor Beneventano, too, is entitled to our cor dial praise. As Giorgio G-ermont in "La Traviata," Count di Lana in "ill Trovatore," Riccardo in " I Pur tani," he fully sustained his well-won reputa tion, and added to it very materially by his most admirable delineation of Don Giovanni, which was generally acknowledged to be the best seen on the Anglo-Icalian stage since the palmy days of Tam-' burini. The revival of "Nino" served to exhibit the vocal abilities of Mr. a)arles Braham very ad vantageously, and to introduce to the London pub lic a very clever artist, Si g nor Corsi, in the character of the hero of that opera. ° Signor Corsi met with un equivoc d success, and at a later p rind of the sea son contributed argely to the effect of " D. n Gio vanni" by• his most praiseworthy performance of the small but hi.2,hly important part of Masetto. Signor Bel.rt, a young tenor, alto quite new to the London public, made a successful debut as Elvin° in "La S mnanibula," and advanced himself still further in their estima tion by his excellent singing as Nemorino in " L'Eli-ir d'Amore." Signor St'echi Bottardi (another new tenor) was unable to d.> himself jus on the occasion of his debut a3Touio in "La Fig , i a" in consequence of a terrible and unlooked for do- mestic afiliction—the almost sudden .death of his wife ; but he subsequently appeared to greater ad vantage as Count Almaviva in " .11 Barbiere." and proved himself to be a valuable acquisition to the company. Signor Bonet ti's great ability as conductor of the orchestra has been strikingly exempllfied throughout the season, and his masterly direction of the opera of operas, " Il Don Gii , vanni," raised him higher in the estimation of all true connoisseurs than any of his previous efforis. Iu the ballet depa,tment we have to record the great success of those most accomplished artists Madame Rosati, Mesdlles., Marie Taglioni, Boschetti, Perea Nem, M. Cuarles, and those lesser, though still very bright, stars, Madlle. Latrine and. Mille. Salvioni. In conclusion, we may call attention to the rue merits of the gentleman who not only set ail this complicat:d machinery of a vast establishment in motion, and applied it to the best purposes of art, but who also discovered its capabiliLie4. With zeal and energy a man of average ability and long experience may easily fulfil the routiue duties of theatrical management ; but he who displays what we will term creative powers may be truly said to possess the genius of direction. The' public must have confidence in such a man under any circumstances. He may have reverses—mis fortunes `enough to bear a royal merchant down"— but so long as he shows any signs of vitality the public will believe in his resuscration, if not in his ultimate triumph. Such a person is Mr. Lumley, the manager of her Majesty's Theatre. Twice has he been left without a company, and twice has he contrived to " create a soul under the ribs of death," to defy augury, and reconstruct one of the greatest lyrical institutions in the world upon what. most people would consider the very slender and treacherous foundations of hope, faith, and confi dence in.his own indomitable courage and unflag ging energy. Marietta Piccolomini and Giuglini, two of the greatest artists in existence, may Le con.- sidered in a certain sense, and, with reference to the London public, to be creations of Mr. Lumley, as was Jenny Lind in former years; and, in fact, the greater portion of the company, whose attrac tions have filled his gigantic theatre night after night during the last two seasons, were artists scattered about Europe (some of them in compara tive obscurity) whose great merits none but a manager of extraordinary vigilance would have be come cognisant of ; people who required all the efforts of the most delicate and pet severing diplo• macy to bring them together, and upon the chances of whose success with a difficult public nothing less that a most enterprising spirit would have staked the vital interests of a great establishment. It 18 no wondor, then, that Mr. Lumley, after all his recent glorious successes, was call-d for enthusias tically on Salurday night last, which brought one of the most brilliant seasons ever known at her Majesty's Theatre to a worthy close. The popular director merely walked across the stage, bowing his acknowledgments, and made no speech, as many people imagined he would. We have now only space to say th a t t h e regu l ar season termi nated with a very fi ne per f ormance o f "L a Tra viata," and a new b a ll et -d ivert i ssemen t , i n w hi c h the fascinating Marie Taglioni appeared to great advantage.

The following letter relates to the most impor tant question of the day—the possibility of short ening the route to India by upwards of 1,000 miles, and at the same time, of opening up a friendly country, capable, according to universal tes imony, of supplying by its productions some of the princi pal wants of Western Europe : " Euphrates Valley Railway Company (limited), Greshatn-house, July 15, 1857. • " Sir,—ln requesting the insertion, at the present mo ment, of the accompanying letter, which I had recently the honour of addressing to Lord Palmerston, on the necessity of the financial support of her Majesty's Go vernment being extended to the Euphrates Valley Rail way, I w‘uld venture to express a hope that before this eessinn of Parliament is allowed to c'ose such measures may be taken as to secure the early commencement of this great work, so essential not only to the prosperity and protection of Turkey and Persia but to the peaceable possession of India. "Several inetnbers of the Cabinet have assured me of their entire approval of the deign to connect the Medi terranean and the Persian Gulf, And their desire to see it carried out, and the bugbear of Arabi is no longer even alluded to. " What, then, causes the delay ? I cannot believe that pecuniary support will be delayed'from the mere technical difficulty that the Government in times past has not lent its credit to private enterprise, or that the fear of establishing a possibly trouble:mese precedent will be suffered to prevail irl such a peculiar case as this. "I have before observed that the Euphrates Railway is unique, and therefore never can with any show of reason be taken as a.precedent. But, admitting that it could, the departure of Government from traditional usage would demonstrate one of two things—either that it was _right or wrong. If right, who would say it wrong to fel'ow what practice had proved to be benefi cial ? If wrong, he would be a bold man to cite a mis take as a precedent. "The Government give subsidies, which are certain payments, to establish secondary lines of communication; can they pause about giving an assurance of a contin gent payment to establish the most important line of communication in the wcrld, and give unity, compactness, and strength to the spread dominions of England ? " Let it not continue to be said that it seems a na tional vice to prefer th 3 most lavish outlay in prospect to present moderate disbur , sment.' .Whatever tends to avert an attempt to wrest. India from our hands, an , 1 to bring it more immediately into contact with the centreof our power and prevent the enormous expenditure conse quent upon serious commotion in that country, is eco nomy.—l am, sir, your most obedient servant, . " W. P. ANDREW." " ' London, June 30. "My Lord,—ln compliance .with the desire ex pressed by your lordship, when the deputation waited upoh you on the 22d init favour of a guaranteed rate of interest being granted by her Majesty's Government on a portion of the capital of the Euphrates Valley Rail way Company, that the proposition should he submitted in writing, I have now the honour to state for your lordship's consideration that the pecuniary support of Government is sought on the foil !e ing grounds:— " 2. The establishment of a railway from the Medi terranean to Vie Persian Gulf woull have the effect of reducing the di tance between this country and India by uPwards of 1,000 miles and the time to about 14 days, or about half the period n >w occupied. " It would be the means of consolidating the power of the Sultan in his Asiatic dominions. " By means of this railway taken in conjunction with the system of steam transit now being established along the valley of the Indus from Lahore to the sea at Kur racteee,* the large f roe stationed in the Punjaub would be rendered of incalculable itnpnrtance by steamers unit ing the hoe of the Indus with that of the Euphrates, for in that case any hostile force advancing towards the In dus would not only be wet on the line of that river, but be threatened along the seaboard of the Persian Gulf and the line of the Euphrates in flank and rear. " 5. The Indus and the Euphrates, thus united, the dangerous isolation of Persia would be at an end, and a Russian invasion of India would cease even to be specu lated upon. " '6. The first section of the line from Seleucia to the Euphrates has been surveyed by Major Gen. Chesney and Sir J. Id 'Neill, with a❑ engineering staff, and has been reported an ~f easy construction. Cvies of the re poi ti of the , e able and scientific gentlemen are annex.:d for your lordship's information. "`7. The Turkish- Government undertake to com mence simultaneously with the railway the construction of a harbour at the mouth of tht Orontes at the proposed termia,u4 of the railway. ".'B. The harbour Las been surveyed by Sir.). M 'Neill, with the assistance of the officers of her Mfjdsty'e ship Stromboli. Rails of the proposed works have been already submitted to the First Lord of the Admiralty, and they are now forwarded for your Lordship's inspec tion. " '9. There being to harbour on the coast of Syria better than the open roadsteads of B:yi out, Jaffa, Tri poli, and Acre, or the pewilintial harbour of Alexan dretta, the importance of bavilig a safe and commodious harbour will be apparent for political as well as com mercial purposes. " 'lO. This harbour, connected by means of the ra;l - with Bceeorah at the head of the Persian Gulf, w ' ,lll give' , England the first strategical position in the " 11. The resources of England being made promptly ava labia on any emergency in the East. Chatham and Southampton would become the basis of operations in stead of liurrachee or Bombay, and would enable this country to anticipate or repel, whether in Europe or Asia, any attack with the rapidity and advantages of an irresi tibia force. " 'l2. OUan emergency in India, troops (from Eng land) could be I...nded at Kurrachee in three weeks, and in anotb'er week at Lahore, by steam transit. "13. The Euphrates Valley Railway, in addition to its p,ltical advantages, would powerfully promote the commerce and civilization of the world at large, and that the c ommerc i a l an d manu f actur i ng commun ities concur in th ese sent i men t s h as b een s h own by the ad dresses lately su b m itt e d t o y our l or d s hip. They are quite ali ve to the importance of obtaining cotton, woo l , sugar, i n di go, and other products from India and Mese pltarnia, and the production, being effected by free la bour, would of necessity tend to the txtinction of slavery, . " ' 14. Through the zealous eilirtions of Major-Gene ral Chesney, aided by the advice and powerful support of Viscount Stratford de Redcliffe, a concession was granted by the Turkish Government in the early part of this year, guaranteeing a minimum rate of interest of 6 per cent. oa the capital required for the first section from the Mediterranean to the Euphrates, besides affording other privileges. 4 " 15. But as these terms, from the state of the money-market and other ceusee, have neither been, nor are likely to be, sufficiently attractive to induce the British capitalist to embark his money in a distant enter prise, the deputation of which I had the honour of being a member, waited upon your lerdsbip with the view of impressing upon your attention the absolute necessity of the pecuniary support of her Majesty's Government being extended to the undertaking, in the event of the Govern. meat concurring in the opinion expressed by the deputa tion that the Euphrates Valley Railway was a work of great national importance. "' 16: It was most satisfactory to the deputation to have from your lordship the assurance that her Majesty's Government entirely concurred with the deputation as to the great import ance t o t hi s country.o f connecting Eng land and India by the Euphrates Valley route, and that it would e , ntinue to receive the countenance and fur therance of Government. "' 17. The financitd support required from her Ma jesty's Government is a counter guarantee of 5 per cent. for 25 years, or 41 per cent. for 50 years, on the capital of 1,400,0001. for the first section. The responsibility in curred by the Government in granting this assistance, would, it is believed, he merely nominal, and could only accrue in the event of two contingencies—the railway not paying a moderate dividend, and the Turkish Go vernment to fulfil i ts part of t h e contract. under th e a b ove circumstances could her Majesty's iling Only Government be call e d u p on t o ma k e an y con tribution,fa and it will be seen by reference to Sir John moNeill's report that the existing traffic upon that por tion of the route of the proposed railway is sufficient, in his judgment, to yield a dividend of 8 per cant. on the capital required. is r 19. The East Indian Company might fairly be ex pected to share the responsibility of the counter guaran tee in the Came way as they have already contributed to th e subsidy to the European and .Indi an Junction Tele graph Company, as the establishment of the proposed route appears to be of vital importance for securing the good government and peaceable possession of India. 20. The experienced and distinguished gentlemen with whom I had the honour of being associated in wait ing upon your lordship on the 22d inst. are well aware that the question of the Government guaranteeing inte rest on an industrial undertaking is not free from diffi culty, and this difficulty would be increased if, on the present occasion, the granting of the guarantee might hereafter be quoted as a precedent for similar demands. " 21. The pecuniary support of Government is on the present occasion sought not on industrial or commer cial considerations, but on account of the political im portance of the railway to the empiie at large ; and it is to be remembered that whatever assistance the Govern ment may render to the Euphrates Valley Railway can STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, JULY 18. There is very little change in the market since yesterday. The trade in cloth with India is on a very small scale, and the chief purchases this morn ing were on account of the home trade, which remains steady for the time of the year ; but there is seldom anything at this period of the year to give an impetus to it. The general prosperity of the country and the fineness of the weather have led to a fair demand up to this period for printed muslins and light fancy goods, and prices are well main tiine I. Cloths, as well as yarns, are also in request for China, at full rates. The general or aggregate business in cloth, however, is very limi•ed, and continued proof of this is given in the fact that sellers can make no advance in prices approximating to the increasing cost of production. Stocks are low, but prices cannot be made to keep pace with those of cotton. In yarns, for whioh the export demand is on a fair scale, including a rather brisk trade for the continent, prices are id. per lb. dearer than last week. BIRMINGHAM, JULY 18. Since the termination of the quarterly meetings the iron- trade has remained steady, and parties who were reluctant to purchase at declared prices have been compelled to enter into contracts for supplies at current rates. The American demand continues to increase, and there is every appearance of a more than usually brisk autumn trade, as well with. the British North American colonies as with thlb TJniteil Stat Es. The copper-market, whidh it was hoped wasnioie settled, is again disturbed by another expected reduction of price. These fluctuations operate in jut iouslyuponminufacturers and factors. The former decline purchases of the raw material beyond imme diate necessity, and the country trade decline to give orders in prospect of a further fall in the prices of manufactured articles. It is admitted, however, on all hands, that more business is doing in brass foundry goods than during the spring months, and that prospects are hopeful rather than discouraging. .The patent ship's sheathing and seamless tubing manufactures are extremely active. The makers of tin wares continue to be moderately well engaged, but, as with other branches of local production, chiefly upon f ‘reign orders. The military gun trade is quiet, if not absolutely flat, but the birding branch, as might be expected at this season of the year, is extraordinarily active. Thera are large orders in hand for edged tools required for the South American and West Indian markets. For generrl ironmongery factors' travellers report the demat.d to be improving. In the agricultural counties more particularly business is more active, and all descriptions of implements find a ready sale. All branches of the glass trade in Birmingham, plate and flint, are indifferently off for orders. In conseqtynce of the depressed s'a'e of the manufac ture one of the largest establishments of the neigh bourhood has recently effected two reductions in the wages of a portion of their men. This has led to "a strike," and many of the operatives formerly employed in the Spon-lane Works have, it is said, bttaktn themselves for employment to the United States. The great foundries cf the district are fairly em ployed, and SOtne of them extremely busy. The wrought nailers are full of orders ' most of which ate fo r shipment, and at Cradley and the neighbour hoo there is morn than ordinary bustle among the chairmakers. NOTTINGHAM, JCLY 18. There is a slight improvement in the lace trade, there haring been some small orders for the contin ent. There is a fair inquiry for cotton qudtings. For first-aiss goods a fair price is given, while for some articles the price offered is anything but re munerative. In most branches of the tra'le there is not much doing ; July, however, is usually a fiat month. Silk continues exceedingly high, and as yet there is no prospect of a reduction in price. Yarns are also high. In hosiery there is a little more doing ; trade, however, still continues quiet in most branches, and manufacturers are wisely 'abstaining from accumu laiing stocks. Hosiery, silks, and yarns are without alteration. LEICESTER, JULY 18. There is an improvement in the hosiery trade, manufacturers for the most part giving out more work; In the fancy department there is a decided change for the better, still the high price of mate ri.l will prevent manufacturers making extra stock. There is not much change -in trade at Loughborough or Hinckley. Wools are realising very high prices. At Brackley fair the price averaged was 425. per tod, being 6s. higher than last year, and all the wool was disposed of with the exception of two small lot.. . Worsted yarns are advancing, but as manufac turers have still some stocks on hand, sales will not be effected at the advance until those stocks are cleared. LEEDS, JULY 18. The woollen trade has been rather quiet this week, both in the warehouse and the pub lic markets. There appears to be a lull in both the home and the export trade, and purchases are made chiefly to make up stocks, or where anything good and cheap for the fall trade is offered. The manufactures continue to be moderatt-ly well employed, and the stocks in hand are only of an average character for the sea son, so that, with the present prospect of an early and abundant harve.t, a good trade for the close of the year is anticipated To-day's market has pre sented no feature of material change. The attend ance of buyers was of an average character, and they bought in the ag g regate a good bulk of the heavier kiodi of cloth for the winter trade, being stimulated thereto, in some degree, by the prospect of an increase in price, both wool and indigo having advanced at the current sales in the metropolis. The home growers of wool seem disposed to have the very highest current prices, and are holding off selling rather than take less. Hence transactions in Yorkshire wools have not been very numerous or to a large amount this week. Foreign and colo nial kinds, it is hardly necessary to say, are held very firmly by the dealers. HALIFAX, JULY 18. _ _ The worsted and carpet trades are enjoying a fair amount 'of prosperity, but neither of them is actually brisk. The demand is more steady and regular than in some past years, so that there is less fluctuation and less ground for speculative hope or fear. The great bulk of the manufacturing opera tives are in work, but not wholly on full time. To day's market has been fully as active as that of last Saturday, and a good deal of yarns and pieces has been sold. Rather less done in wool, and prices without alteration. DUBLIN, JULY 18. The Customs' receipts for the week to Thursday, July 16, inclusive, were 18,7261. against 19,7261. last week. BELFAST, JULY 18. Linen.—We cannot notice any material altera tion in any branch of the linea trade this week, either in supply or demand. • Linen yarn unaltered. Flax.—Owing to the large quantities of Baltic flax arriving in our port, for the last fortnight, the coarse qualities of both hand and mill scutched flax have been neglected, and prices are now in favour of buyers ; dealers are glad to get rid of any stock they have on baud at less rates than they h a c e ou n n o ts change sell at would have accep•ed 14 days ago.
