I can, therefore, safely recommend it to any one, particularly to those subject to headache.—l am, gentlemen, yours truly. I have worn for some time one of the Patented Easy-fitting Hats sold by Mr. ----, and 1 can testify to the advantage derived from the absence of that unpleasant pressure, particu larly on the forehead, usually felt from the hats genes ally worn. -- House, Cheltenham.

It is not unlikely that the object of his journey is to come to some understanding with Ricasoli and the almost autonomous Tuscan Government respect ing the duties on iron. Those duties are considerably higher in the Tuscan than in the Sardinian tariff, as the object of the late Grand Ducal Government was to protect the industry of the Elba mines. The Opinione, of Turin, states that Count Ercole Mastai, a nephew of the present Pope, and late captain of the staff in the pontifical army, has offered his ser vices to the King of Italy, who has acccepted them, granting him the same rank in the Italian army. A Paris letter in the Nord says :—The negotiations lately entered into with the English Government, for obtaining more favourable conditions for the admission of French wines into England, will soon terminate suc cessfully. There is even reason to hope that the clas sification by categories will be abolished, in conformity with the wishes of all wine-producers in the centre and south of France. It appears that arrangements have been made for housing several thousands of the homeless fugitives of Syria in the government buildings of St. Jean d'Acre, through the kind initiative of Lord Stratford de Red cliffe, President of the Syrian Fund Relief Committee, the appeal of Lord John Russell to the Porte, and the ealotts agency of Sir H. L. Bulwer. A letter from Boston states that the national finances of the 'United States are in a most wretched state. Riggs; the Washington banker, who took so much of the loan in October, now refuses to fulfil his contract, because Sauth Carolina, one of the parties to the con tract on the other side, threatens to leave the Union, which he knew as well when he subscribed for the loan as ho did whets he refused . to pay the money. The Board of Trade returns for the month ending the 30th of November, and the eleven months ending the same date, have appeared. The returns for the month exhibit a slight decrease compared with last year, the figutes fespettively being £10,757,749 in 1860, against £10,858,001 in 1859. On the eleven months a fair in crease is exhibited between'lB6o and 1859. The figures are-1860, £123,714,276 ; 1859, £119,613,185. A letter signed "A Piactical Gunner," appears in the Times of yesterday, and urges the introduction of uniform bores for ship guns, so that uniform ammuni tion would fit Owl , gun, With reference to Sir William Armstrong's grin the *titer' says In the Armstrong the recoil is Very shark; arid Cause setae attain on Ships' decks; bolts, and sides: The elaborate deflecting sight, WO, the time and difficulty of pointing, and sometimes the breech sefeff gets set so' fast as only to be moved with difficulty, a defect which increases with the size of the gun ; and in sustained and quick firing the vent-piece is very liable to be blown off; notwith standing &Nil bate; the grooving fouls and the balls strip—a serious defect—which alsO increases with the size of the gun, and renders it dangerous to fire °fer treops or boats.

The whole of the " Davy's" became red hot almost instantaneously from the rapid ignition of the gas within the gauze ;the " Stephenson's" were as instantly gal . -extinguished from the same cause, it being the prominent tiiialifiiiatiott h f these lamps that, in addition to affording a somewhat better light than tire " Davy" lamp, they are suddenly extinguished when placed within a highly explosive atmosphere, so that no person can remain working and run the risk of his lamp be coming red hot—which, under such circumstances would be the result with the " Davy" lamp. The red hot lamps Were; most fottunately, all safely put out, although the men in many cases had their hands setetelj. burned by the gante, but from that time I fully resolved to adopt the del tisibe Use ef the " Stephen son" lamps, and not expose men to the feafftil tisk they must run from working with "Davy" lamps during the probable recurrence of a similar event. The Bishop of Rochester, in a recently delivered charge, ilia& kite strong remarks on the tendency of the clergy to indulge iii Loa great development of beard and whisker ; and also censured their attendance at cricket or archery matches. There has been some murmuring at this, and the Rev. A. Watson, tem porary curaf4 cif Goggeshall, Essex, has spoken out against what he consicleii tin attempt at episcopal tyranny. The reverend gentleman in( a recent speech expresses a hope that neither the Bishop of PLottiester nor att) other bishop will again interfere with any of the dutiee of the barbet, and that the clergy may never again be called upon to listen to at Charge making it a sin to pick up a cricket:ball and throw it at the wickets, or to catch up a bow and arrow at an archery meeting.

The sum is to be fixed by justices in session on an average of the last five years, and in the event of the parties not agreeing, an appeal is given to the Home Secretary, and he is to determine the amount for mile age and allowances, having regard to the number of inquests held in the last five years. After the lapse of every successive peried of five years, the salaries may be revised by the justices and coroners, and the same are to be increased or diminished, and, in case of their disagree rhenti a similar appeal is given to the Secretary of State.

There is most important, as well as most gratifying, news as regards Austria. According to the Patrie, the programme of M. de Schmerling and the restoration of the Constitution of 1848 have produced the most favour able impression, and the foreign committees for the get ting up of an insurrection.are more likely than ever to lose their labour. It is also reported that the address of the Emperor Napoleon on New Year's Day will be "eminently pacific." The Russian Ambassador has undertaken to do duty, on the occasion, for the Pope's Nuncio, who has not been at his post for some time past. It is likewise stated that the programme of Baron Schmerling will be found to include a request to his Holiness to abandon his concordat with Austria in tote. The Herald's correspondent gives currency to a report that Eng land and France having come to an understanding on the subject of Venetia are about to despatch to Vienna a joint commission to urge upon the Emperor Joseph the expediency of his agreeing to cede Venetia without stipulating for any territorial recompense. This rumour may or may not be true, but now that his Majesty has succeeded in overcoming his extreme repug nance to granting the reforms insisted on by M. Sehmerling, what may we not hope for as regards the settlement of the Venetia question ? THE TREATY OF PEKIN. THE cold has all but killed the news. To discover a particle of really novel and interesting intelli gence in this excruciatingly festive season is about as difficult as would be the extraction of blood from stones. The news is that there is no news. We are sick-tired of Italian-unity news. The Turkish Empire is a drug in the market. Austria seems so perfectly capable of resisting an Italian attack, if unaided by a French sup port, which, it is to be hoped, England and the other Great Powers will not• permit, that the threatened outbreak in the spring still remains a very problematical proposition. Prussia holds on her way, amid many difficulties and obstructions, towards a liberal-constitutional system of govern ment ; and doubtless she can hold her own. Russia, apparently, contemplates no scheme of aggrandisement which need immediately alarm any one. Looking further abroad, we find that India approaches towards a firmly consolidated system of administration. Turning our eyes to the west, we behold America making vast strides, although not without commotion, towards that state of perfect freedom to its children which alone can give the Union permanent stability. From other parts of the world we have been receiving assurances of the best intentions and the most pacific purposes. Towards China chiefly have the eyes of all men been anxiously turned, to find out the real state of affairs. So far as we can judge, the war with China, now concluded, has been happily terminated. There have been many differences of opinion as to the propriety of the war ; and there are not a few who would willingly have seen England sub jected to any indignity rather than that the cost of such an expedition should have been incurred. Others seem to have imagined that the only worthy and proper objects of an Anglo-French invasion of the Celestial Empire were the life and throne of the Emperor, and the annexation of the great Kingdom of China to the dominion of Wes tern Europe. An intermediate class seem to have been duly impressed with the solemn belief that a make-believe war was all that was necessary to accomplish all we desired. These simple,tons for some time dreamt of an empty parade of a few ships' guns and a handful of marines as sufficient to convince our Chinese acquaintances of the infinite superiority and certain determination of the belligerent Powers. Another party is rather facetiously represented as the " impossible section," whose single instinct is to declare everything to be Impossible, and who are now demonstrating to all who will listen or read that it is clearly contrary to all rule that any one of our expedi tion should come back, and that it is nothing but the accident of our Armstrong guns which has saved the whole force from being ridden down by the Tartar cavalry. The nearest approach to the truth, however, seems to be that the really responsible authors of our troubles and wars With China are those who have sought most assiduonsly to demonstrate that war was an unprotitahle l *iekedi and inexcusable expedient. To the peace-at-any-price party as much as to anything else, therefore, ought we to set down the cost of our recent Chinese war expenditure. Not a few well-meaning and intelligent people feel a difficulty itt realising the actual value of the stake we have at hazard With China. Let us for a moment consider the facts. Last year the foreign trade at the port of Shanghai alone was twenty-eight millions and three-quarters sterling, exports and imports ; and in 1850 it was seven and a half millions. This is the increase made in Chinese trade at one port alone dating nine years, and three-fourths of this commerce is inthe hands of British merchants. This increase has gone on without Cessation even while we have been at war , even while we have been advancing upon the capital and assaulting the Imperial ralaee. It is only a specimen of what will yet be done when the Treaty now ratified is in operation. Tea will then be approachable in the districts where it is made, and tufty be bought at a price which may encourage Mit Chancellor of the Exchequer to diminish the duty, not perhaps down to a vanishing point, but until tea may become a plentiful article in the most humble house hold, and an item of expenditure of as little importance as salt. China is all Europe ;it is more than all Europe, for it is greater in popula tion, in fertility, and in communications. It is all Europe cut up by broad, navigable rivers, and reticulated by canals. We have hitherto only just looked upon the land, and drawn from it by our agents specimens of its products; we may now go in and enjoy. To the twenty millions of trade Oil which we draw our profits at Shanghai, we shall soon add other twenty millions in various ports, and still greater operations in those vast cities upon the inland lakes and huge rivers. Will the treaty of Pekin be the last we have I to extort from the Chinese ? That must depend, says a judicious contemporary, very much upon how we use it. Properly used it ought to be our last extorted treaty with China. If we put it in operation at once, and accustom the Chinese to its provisions while our army and navy are still in China, we shall have no more diffi culty with them. This treaty is like a sap ling; we must guard it round at first, or the beasts of the field will nibble at its bark and destroy its growth; but let it have time to strike its roots firmly into the earth, and you may take away the rails, for the strong trunk can protect itself, and the same cattle which would have destroyed it will repose in its shadow. Protect it now against these Tartar rulers, and the Tartar rulers will themselves protect it when they see its fruits. Shanghai gives to Pekin an annual million of dues. The Northern Ports yet to be opened will give as much, and, if the South should remain sub ject to the North, quite as much again will arise from the ports on the Yang•tse. But these things are not yet apparent, and, as there is no reason now for creating a war, but every reason for pre serving the peace, we entreat our professors of paradox to refrain from showing their cleverness by proving how it was that the Chinese did not destroy us all ; for, although no one else would believe them, the Chinese may. Much un doubtedly rests with ourselves as to how far the newly concluded peace shall really redound to the credit and profit of Great Britain. THE ARCHITECTURAL AND A R CHIEOLOGICAL SOCIETY. —The seventh meeting of the session of this society was held at the Royal Institution yesterday evening. Mr. M. ilay presided, and there was but a very limited attendance. Several donations of books and periodicals were announced ; and two papers were read. The first of these was by Mr, Griffiths, on "The Resources of Design," which was spoken of in the brief discussion which ensued as of a highly suggestive and valuable character. The next consisted of Notes on Furness Abbey," by the secretary, Mr. W. 11. Picton. The thanks of the society were voted to both gentlemen. DOG STEALlNG.—Yesterda y, at the County Magis trates' Court, John Melia, of North -street, Liverpool, a hawker, described on the police-sheet as a reputed thief, was brought up, charged with having stolen a dog, of the value of £2, the property of Mr. Thomas Douglas Robinson. The prisoner, when stopped, had nearly £3O in his pocket ; and on his house being searched, ten other splendid dogs were found there, and all wear ing collars, from which the names had evidently been erased. This being his first conviction, the prisoner was fined £5 for the offence, £2 for the value of the d o g, and Bs. 6d. costs, with two months' imprisonment in default. THE LATE GENERAL PIMODA'N.—The Armortia of Turin states that the Pope has addressed an autograph letter to the widow of General Pimodan, informing her that he has conferred the title of duke on the two sons of her deceased husband. 1 FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, 25th Dec., 1860. According to a report which prevailed in cer tain circles yesterday, it is not impossible thatthe French expedition to Cochin-China will be coun termanded,—the Emperor Tu-duc, who rules over the various territories bearing that name, having manifested a desire to come to terms in conse quence of what has happened to his neighbour, the Emperor of China. The affair of the cession of Venetia still pro gresses, but no official communications have yet been exchanged on the subject; and meanw•hll e the Austrian Cabinet affects the utmost indigna' tion with the late pamphlet on the subject, attri buted to M. Pereire. The Austrian Minister even went so far as to demand officially of M. Thouvene l if the publication was to be regarded.as having a semi-official character as was generally rumoured; to which M. Thouvenel replied that the French Government had interfered in no way whatever with its publication, and that it would avail itself of that opportunity to explain and repeat that the articles which had been published in La Press() and elsewhere on this subject, were to be con sidered only as the expressions of the opinions of the journalists, the Government acknowledging no responsibility whatever in regard to them. With this explanation the Atstrian minister is said to have expressed himself satisfied. You are, uo doubt, aware that a conspiracy for raising the whole of Hungary is said to have been discovered. I hear that one or more of the con spirators have turned traitors, and that, in conse quence of the information communicated by theni to the Government, some depots of arms have been seized, several persons arrested, the plan of the proposed attack betrayed, and the Turkish Govern' meat warned to be on its guard : for it was at Antivari that the first disembarkation was to be effected, and it was from that point that the signal was to be given for a general rising in Dalmatia . It was expected that some important discoveries would have followed upon the arrest of Count Teleky in Bavaria, but this has not been the case. Some documents, however, of the greatest import ance have been seized at Vienna, and it is s aid that the contents of some of them are to be made public by the official journal of Vienna. An anecdote is going th 6 round of some of the papers, in connection with.the renewal of the bombardment of Gaeta. A French officer wits chatting in the fortress one day with General Bosco and a Prussian officer attached to the staff, and who is serving as an amateur. A bomb was thrown into the place at the moment when detachment of troops was passing in order to relieve the guard. In an instant the whole of the detachment threw themselves to the ground/ " their bellies in the dust," and the only person& remaining standing were the three officers who were chatting together. " Come, my childreof rise now," said all at once the voice of a / nag who came ont of a house close by, " there is no danger." It was the King, who had come to take a walk round the fortress with the three officers, The journal La Nazione mentions a robbery of no little importance which has been committed in the rich gallery of Gli-Uffigi, in Florence. Among the articles of jewellery subtracted on this occasion was a ring of the value of 250,000 francs. It is topaz of enormous size. Some persons asset t that the total value of the stolen articles is not less than a million of francs. The keeper of the hall has jo the mean time been taken into custody ; and the false key has been found which was used to force the lock of the door opening into the gallery. TWO hundred rings in all have been taken away. There is no change of importance in the state el the Bourse. ITALY. THE ENGLISH BRIGADE. (FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.) SALERNO, Dee. 14. This morning, at daybreak, 250 of all ranks were paraded in heavy marching order, under command of Capt. Drury, and marched off for Naples, headed by the band of the 53rd Piedinon tese Regiment. They marched as far as Noceraf a town about ten miles distant, whir a special train was awaiting them—the band having accompanied them all the way. I understand that at Naples there was no demonstration what ever—the men simply laid down their arms and accoutrements,and marched on board the Melaw:). I believe the arrangements for provisions are first class, as the supply of fresh meat is sufficient until the vessel reaches Gibraltar. The cony panics remaining are the 9th ( Scotch ), 10tb (Liverpool and Manchester), 11 th (mixed), and 121 11 (mixed). They are under the command resper tively of Captains Dimond, Morris, Crawford, and Davidson. Five of the 10th have gone home per the Mclazzo, but all of them belong to the south of England. Dec. 15th.--A general muster was called to-daY' when the following address from the inhabitant" of Salerno was read When the cause of Italy meets with the sympathy of a free and civilised nation, we have an unexceptionable proof of its justice ; and when that sympathy goes e° far as to make them take up arms and fight, we have proof of the nobleness of the aspirations which arose le shake off the yoke of slavery. Inspired with this truth, Garibaldi, the man of the two worlds, thought of having a legion of English volunteers, who graciously hastened to our assistance. Great and general as was our grief for those brae men who fell under the walls of Capua, yet it is immensely greater now that new viscissitudes make you leave our land, on which God smiles, and which it scene men conspire to torment and deride. You depart, oh ! generous and brave men, and 'tall is not yet all united, independent, and free ; but she le not unworthy of the sympathy of )our nation, which was the first in Europe to conquer freedom without bitter pain for those peoples whom she knows how to defend and to fight for. May your departure be a pledge of security that Ive, will accomplish our great task without the sacrifice of any other blood than our own, which we ought alwayo . to be ready to shed for our beloved country; and let uer oh ! noble friends, wait for better times to express the sincere gratitude of all the Italian nation towards your generous country. These are the hearty wishes of the people of Salerno , who enjoy now your presence, and love you like brothers. Farewell! brave men, farewell ! The following note has been sent to the colonel commanding the 53rd Regiment:— , Salerno, Dec. 14, 1860. Sir,—l have the honour to express most warmly the feelings of the English Brigade for the compliment paid us by the 53rd Regiment, *allowing their band to accompany the march of the detachment this morning to Nocera, and regret that the discipline of your servic e would not allow them to accept the only complimentwe could offer them, viz. : to breakfast there on thei r return. I beg, therefore, that you will give your per mission for them to dine with some of their brother soldiers of the English Brigade, at any time most con venient to yourself; and, further, that you will lay before your brother officers our sense of your good fellowship -I have the honour to be your obedient servant, (Signed), CHARLES SMELT, Major commanding. It is impossible to say when the remainder will sail for England, as I understand a ship cannot be found, and the general impression is that we shall go home overland. Except one or two trifling cases of fever, jaundice, &c., the men in barracks here are in' the enjoyment of good health. THE FEMALE CHRISTY MINSTRELS.—This troupe' has caused quite a sensation, and is attracting large' audiences every evening, at the Teutonic-hall, Lime street. This is not to be wondered at, as the performanc e is varied and excellent, as well as attractive. Those wh° wish to spend a pleasant and agreeable evening bay° only to repair to the hall. CA.wribx.—To prevent kitchen range boilers exploding during frosty weather, keep the range-fire burning con tinuously ; and in case of the boiler being a high-pres sure one, allow a small stream to be kept running through the hot-water tap either over the sink or in the bath. So long as these taps run freely there is no danger. ST. PAUL'S AND EXCHANGE WARDS.—The annul tea party in connection with; St. Paul's School was held last evening. The Rev. George Reed occupied the chair' Amongst those on the platform were the Rev. Dr. Irwinr Rev. 11. Stephens, Rev. Mr. Lowe, Mr. Councillor Bar ton, Mr. Thomas Lane, Mr. Lancaster, Mr. Edmondson,' Mr. Dunn, and other gentlemen. The rooms were bean' tifully decorated with flags, banners, and evergreens, and the choir sung some anthems. All present seeme d highly pleased with the evening's proceedings ; ad' after addresses from the Chairman, the Rev. Dr. Irwin , Rev. H. Stephens, and the Rev. Mr. Lowe, Councillor Barton, Mr. Lancaster, and Mr. Dunn, the meeting broke up. SOIREE OF THE BYROM LITERARY SOCIETY' --A soiree in connection with the above society was held last. evening, in the schoolroom adjoining the chapel in. Byrom-street. The walls were gaily decorated with flags. A supply of tea and cake was lard u pon the tables at six o'clock, and its merits were amply _discussed. The chair was then taken by the resident, Mr . B. H. Grind ' ley, who delivered a sensible a ddress upon the nature of the sessional proceedings of the s ociety ; and p a pers: entitled " Christmas " and "Under the Mistletoe Bough' were read by Mr. Edwin Carver and Mr. F. A. Latham. Some of the members diverted the audience by reciting in parts an amusing dialogue. The recitation, very cre ditably performed, create d r oars of laughter. The Rev. Thomas Dawson gave a critical and historical address on Christmas Carols. What with music, re f r eshment s ; and other diversions, th e e ven ing was agreeably anu beneficially spent.
