ADDITIONAL TESTIMONIAL of the valu able medicinal properties of FRAM PTON'S PILL OF HEALTH forwarded to Mr. Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, from W. Smith, Esq. 13, St. Mark's-terrace, West Brompton, London, 10th May, 1552.—Sir,—Ten years ago I was induced to give you my opinion, founded on experience, of the merits of Frampton's Pill of Health. lam pleased at your having published that plain statement, by which I hope others have been induced to try so effective a medicine. Anxious cares and the neglect of my old tried friend during the early part of this year, had produced symptoms of uneasiness which I found it prudent no longer to neglect; and I am delighted to say that a few doses of the pills, under the blessing of Divine Providence, has removed, and I am again as well as I ever was in my life. Please forward me the usual supply of half-a dozen boxes, which I may safely term my medicine chest for self and family; and I hold it a duty to omit no opportunity of thus giving to you proofs of my experience of the valuable properties of this medicine.—Wm. SMITH." These Pills are particularly efficacious for Stomach Coughs, Colds, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and all Obstructions of the Urinary Passages; and, if taken after too free an indulgence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose. Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head ache, Giddiness. Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. For Females, these Pills are most truly excellent, removing all Obstructions, the dis tressing Headache so very prevalent with the sex ; Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To Mothers they are con fidently recommended as the best medicine that can be taken during pregnancy ; and for children of all ages they are un equalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient, they unite the recommendation of a mild operation with the most suc cessful effect. By regulating the dose, according to the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case, in either sex, that can be required. Sold by T. PROUT, 229, Strand, London. Price Is. lid., and 2s. 9d. per box; and by the Vendors of Medicines gene rally throughout the Kingdom.

HEALTH FOR A SHILLING.- HOLLOWAY'SPILLS. _. _ EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF Loss OF HEALTH, DIS ORDERED STOMACH, INDIGESTION AND DETERMINATION OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD.—Copy of a Letter from Mr. John Lloyd, of Erw-wen, near Harlech, Merionethshire, dated 6th June, 1852.—T0 Professor Holloway,—Sir,—For a very long period I was afflicted with a dangerous giddiness and frequent swimmings in the head, attended byloss of appe tite, disordered stomach, and generally impaired health. Every means had failed to give me any permanent relief, and at length it became so alarming that I was really afraid of going about without an attendant. In this melancholy con dition I waited personally upon Mr. Hughes, Chemist, Harlech, for the purpose of consulting him as to what I had better do ; he kindly recommended your Pills, I tried them without delay, and after taking them for a short time I am happy to bear testimony to their wonderful efficacy.

I was tapped five times within eight months, and skilfully treated by two medical practitioners, but could not get cured, until I had recourse to your remedy, and not withstanding all I had undergone, this miraculous medicine cured me in the course of six weeks.—EDWARD ROWLEY. INFALLIBLE CURB OF A STOMACH COMPLAINT, WITH INDIGESTION AND VIOLENT HEAD-ACHES.—Extract of a Letter from Mr. S. Gowen , Chemist, of Clifton, near Bristol, dated July 14th, 1852.—T0 Professor Holloway,—Dear Sir, — I am requested by a lady named Thomas, just arrived from the West Indies, to acquaint you that for a period of eight years herself and family suffered from continual bad health, arising from disorders of the Liver and Stomach, Indigestion, Loss of Appetite, violent Head-aches, pains in the side, weakness and general debility, for which she con sulted the most eminent men in the colony, but without any beneficial result; at last, she had recourse to your invaluable Pills, which in a very short time effected so great a change for the better, that she continued them, and the whole family were restored to health and strength. S. GOWEN. A DANGEROUS LIVER COMPLAINT AND SPASMS IN THE STOMACH EFFECTUALLY CURED. —Copy of a Letter from Mr. Bostock, Druggist, of Ashton-under-Lyne, dated July 31, 1852.—T0 Professor Holloway,—Dear Sir,—A person in this neighbourhood with whom I am well acquainted was af flicted for a long time with violent spasmodic pains in the stomach and liver, arising from frequent colds, smells of paint. and the effects of a stooping position which he was obliged to assume in his business. At length he heard of your invaluable Pills, and gave them a trial. The first dose gave him considerable relief, and by following them up in accordance with your directions, they have acted so wonder fully in cleansing the liver and stomach, and strengthening the digestive organs, that he has been restored to the enjoy ment of good health.

TUESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 27, 1853 THE WEEK PERHAPS the most interesting event of the week is the munificent donation of our townsman, Mr. WILLIAM BROWN, M.P., towards a new building for the Liverpool Free Library, to which we have alluded more at length in a leading article. We have also commented, elsewhere, upon the proposed improvements in the town, which were brought before the Town Council at their special meeting on Wednesday last. They will, no doubt, have to undergo considerable discussion before a final de cision is arrived at. It is satisfactory to observe that the weekly report of the medical officer shows a continued favourable state of the health of the town, as judged by the amount of mortality, notwithstanding the appre hensions naturally excited from the appearance of the cholera in the eastern parts of the kingdom. It tends to prove that sanitary regulations have not been neglected, and that the large population of Liverpool enjoy as many advantages as can be fMmd. elsewhere. The subscriptions for raising a fund for the re storation of the chimes of St. Peter's Church are daily increasing, so that little doubt remains as to the object being successfully carried out ; but, as a large sum is necessarily required, more aid is needed, and it is to be hoped that the appeal will be liberally responded to. It is more than twenty years since the chimes of. St. Peter's were silenced by the renewal of the bells, which are now most musical, and will be heard to ten-fold advantage. It would seem as if the minions of Rome were determined to expose themselves in their true colours, and to rely solely upon mental prostration for their hold upon the credulity of their dupes. The other day, in London, a Romish Priest was committed to gaol for indecent exposure, and since then the woman who complained of him has had to appeal to the magistrates for protection for her life against the assaults of the Priest's sympathisers. Ireland affords another case, where a Romish Priest refused to be sworn on the Holy Scriptures, be cause he did not believe in them. When will the dupes of Rome have their eyes open to the wicked ness of the false gods they are worshipping ? The farewell visit of GRISI and MARio to the Philharmonic-hall, Liverpool, appears to have created an excitement among the lovers of vocal music unparalleled since the rage for JENNY LIND. Not only has every seat in the spacious building been engaged for the concert of the 4th of October, but a similar difficulty in obtaining admission will exist as to the second concert, on the following Tuesday, as we understand that very nearly all the tickets have been already taken. The meeting on Tuesday, to receive the report of the Committee for raising a fund for the erection of a Testimonial to the late Duke of WELLINGTON, disclosed a melancholy forgetfulness of that sense of honour which is said to prevail even amongst those who are destitute of common honesty. The MAYOR stated that out of 223 names affixed to the requisition for calling the preliminary meeting on the subject, there were 212 which were not to be found in the list of subscribers. It might be con sidered personal if the names of such defaulters were published, but a hint will no doubt be sufficient. It was stated at the meeting that the amount subscribed was inadequate for the realisa tion of the proposed pillar and statue. We repeat the suggestion we made some time since, that the money might be devoted to the erection of a dis tinct wing or ward in the asylum to be established by the metropolitan fund, and that it might bear the appellation of the town as a memorial of Liver pool's appreciation of the great Duke. Mr. NEWLANDS, the borough engineer, has just published a very comprehensive Report of the sewerage, paving, cleansing, and other works effected in the borough of Liverpool under the Sanitary Act. It comprises many interesting particulars, with some valuable suggestions for further improvements. One of the conveniences which ought not =to be delayed is that of a regular numbering of the houses, a measure which Mr. NEWLANDS hopes to effect in the course of next year. The nuisance of the smoke from the ferry steam boats plying at the Landing-stage, has been partially remedied by the application of Mr. LEE STEVENS' invention of smokeless furnaces to the Lord Morpeth, Woodside boat. We understand that the saving of fuel amounts already to eleven per cent., with a prospect of still further reduc tion, and this should of itself be a sufficient inducement for the plan to be more generally adopted, more particularly as the expense of con version from the old system to the new is very trifling. FIRE BRANCH FIRE INSURANCES will be effected at moderate rates of Premium.

The usual Commission allowed to Solicitors. Fees to Medical Referees are likewise granted by this Coin pany MERCY M. DOVE, Manager )ARD, AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL Eitotrpooi ptanbarbf FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE FRANCE.—On Tuesday, the Emperor reviewed the troops at Satory. His Majesty commanded the troops throughout a variety of manceuures, which were executed with great accuracy and spirit ; and, when all had ended, the troops were formed into three sides of a square, the carriages of the Empress and of the court, and a conside rable crowd of spectators, occupying the fourth side. The Emperor then proceeded into the centre of the square, accompanied by a numerous staff and a large body of foreign o ffi ce rs—Austrian, English, Pi e d mon t ese, an d Dutc. His Majesty, having on his right Prince Napoleon, and on his left General Prince Jablonowski, of the Austrian service, then delivered an address to the troops, which was received with loud cries of " Vive l'Empereur ! Vive l'lmpe'ratrice !" After a distribution of medals the troops filed off before their Majesties. An express, dated Thursday, announces the arrival of the Emperor and Empress at Arras, on their tour through the north, and describes the preparations made to receive them. These, it seems, are of almost unprecedented magnificence. The Emperor and Empress continued their journey on Friday morning from Arras to Douai, Valenciennes, and Lille. The revolutionary party are watching with anxiety the progress of events in the east, in the hopes of profiting by their further complication. It is rumoured that another attempt, similar to the recent one at Rome, is in course of preparation. SrAIN. —Private letters from Madrid of the 12th, state that the deposition of the Queen is a topic pretty generally discussed in political circles, and persons who had been hitherto no very warm friends of Marshal Narvaez, ex press a wish for him to return and place himself at the head of affairs, as he, perhaps, is the only man who can save her tottering throne. The Queen-Mother is expected back to Madrid the end of this month or the beginning of October.—A subsequent despatch announces the downfal of the Lersundi cabinet. The new ministers are Sartorius, Interior and President of the Cabinet ; Blaser, War ; Domenech (Progresista), Finance ; the Marquis de Molins, Marine, or State (Foreign Affairs). The other names are not mentioned. The last named is now in Paris. He in tends setting out for Madrid immediately, but has not yet made up his mind as to accepting any place in the new cabinet until he has an interview with the Queen, and has ascertained the line of policy traced out for the ministers. HOLLAND. — On Monday the States-General were re opened, after a brief address, by the King in person. Some degree of sensation has been created in Holland by a Royal decree, conferring the order of the Lion of the Netherlands on M. Drouyn de Lhuys. It is no secret at the Hague that the French Ambassador at the Dutch Court, acting no doubt under instructions, warmly sup ported the formation of the present Cabinet, having throughout shown himself hostile to the Thorbecke administration. ITALY.—The Duke of Casigliano was to leave Florence on the 18th for Paris, with his son, who is to be married to the eldest daughter of Queen Maria Christina. The marriage was long ago arranged by Prince Corsini, and the young couple are to fix their residence at Rome. A letter from Bologna of the 13th, in the German Journal of Frankfort, states that serious disturbances have occurred at Terni and Narni, on account of the rise in the price of bread. Troops have been sent thither to maintain order. TURKEY. — Accounts from Constantinople of the Bth in stant, stated that the excitement in favour of war was daily increasing, and that to restrain the ardour of the people had become a difficult task for the Government. A serious dispute is said to have occurred between the English and French Ambassadors, the latter being favourable to the united fleets passing the Dardanelles, while the former opposed the proceeding. Later intelligence, dated the 11th, represents the state of affairs as becoming more serious. Great devisions prevailed in the Cabinet—on the one side, Redschild Pacha and Moustapha Pacha, and on the other Mehemet Ali, the Seraskier. Ile accounts under both the above tiate.s speak with the utmost alarm of the growing tendency among the people to insist on war. Placards threatening insurrection had been posted on the walls of Constantinople. A petition was being circulated, and has obtained a large number of signatures, in which the Ministers were called upon either to make war, or conclude an honourable peace. It is also stated, that a deputation of Ulemas had demanded war with Russia, or the abdication of the Sultan. The relations between the Porte and the two Hospodars are in the same unsettled condition. The Council of Mi nisters of Constantinople have taken the orders of the Sultan, deciding on informing the Hospodars that the or der of recal would not be insisted on, provided they con tinued to perform their duty of allegiance to the Porte. The fleets have passed the ;ep was consi absolutely necessary by the English and French Ambas sadors, in consequence of the menacing state of affair: The event took place on the 14th or 15th inst., and by th present time there is no doubt that the rema both fleets have followed. From the momen is ships 0 is attitud was taken, the period of negociations must be cons to have closed, By the last accounts from Wallachia, the Russian troops had abandoned their camp near Bucharest, and had moved higher up the Danube. The Turks had made a corres ponding movement on their side of the river. AIISTRIA.—The Emperor left Vienna on the 15th inst., for the camp at Olmiitz. He was accompanied by Prince Louis of Bavaria, the Archdukes Charles Louis, Charles Ferdinand, and Ernest, and of course by Count Grunne. In the evening, he was received with great pomp and state. The town was illuminated. Baron Mayendorff had left the Austrian capital for Warsaw, to receive the Czar, whom he will accompany to Olmiitz. They were ex pected on the 23d. Lord Westmoreland, too, was to leave for Olmiitz on that day, and to remain till the 27th. The Duke of Cambridge has arrived at Olmiitz. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed at Vienna when the crown of St. Stephen, escorted by a large number of Hungarian magnates reached the capital. The escort was headed by the Archduke Albert. The following despatch is dated Vienna ; the 19th inst. : —At a meeting of the conference, Austria, as the mediat ing power, does not adhere, in its full extent, to the pro posal of the two western powers, to give to the Porte, in a collective note, a guarantee against the future interference of Russia between the Sultan and his subjects. Count Buol has declared that the project of a note, submitted by M. Drouyn de Lhuys, is not sufficiently urgent in the sense of acceptance. Energetic instructions have been transmitted to M. de Bruck that, as circumstances do not permit collective action, each power is at liberty to give such guarantee as it may seem fit ; but that it is neces sary, above all, to insist, with the Porte, upon the accep tance of the original note. The conference considers the state of affairs at Constantinople very serious. DENMARIC.—The annual meeting of the Diet is fixed by royal decree for the sth and 7th of October. The Schleswig Provincial Diet is to meet on the 3rd of the same month. At Copenhagen the cholera has, it is hoped, died out. On the 12th instant the returns gave, two attacked, and one dead; total number' of cases to that date, 7,477; of which 4,059 have been fatal. SWEDEN.—This country is still suffering severely from cholera. In Gothenburg, up to the 10th, there were 224 sick, and 104 dead, and in the adjoining Majorna, 248 sick, and 95 dead ; in Norkoping, up to the 7th, 283 sick, and 90 dead; in Malin* up to the Bth, 26 sick, and 17 dead ; in Borstahusene, near Landskrona, up to the 9th, 56 sick, and 13 dead. In Ystad, up to the 6th, 3T9 sick, and 177 dead. In Karlskrona, up to the sth, 1,670 sick, and 875 dead. In Stockholm, up to the 6th, 1,485 sick, and 744 dead. It has also broken out in a multitude of towns and villages all over the country. In no part of Sweden has the cholera been so fatal as in Karlskrona, the dockyard stationed in the south, which has about 13,000 inhabitants, of whom 875 have already been carried off. A large proportion of the victims has been among the officers and higher class, a result probably to be attributed to the bad water. NORWAY. — The cholera is making sad havoc. On the Bth the numbers in Christiana were —sick, 62 ; dead, 36 ; total, 1,056 sick, of whom 662 have expired. The disease has now broken out in Christiansand. RussiA.—The Emperor was to arrive at Olmiitz on the 24th, accompanied by the Cesaravitch, the Grand Duke Nicholas, and the Prince of Prussia, and attended by Prince Laskeswitch, Count Orloff, and the Chancellor Nesselrode. His Majesty was expected in the camp on the 25th. INDIA AND CHINA. (BY THE CONTINENTAL TELEGRAPH.) We have received the following telegraphic dispatch from Trieste : " ALEXANDRIA, Sept. 19. " Government has forbidden the exportation of grain after the 28th instant, although the consuls were desirous that the matter should have been postponed until the Ist of December. " Bo]unA.y, August 30. " The English mail of the 24th June last' has lost. " The Governor-General is at Calcutta, on his passage to Pegu. " Captain Mason, of the Moozaffer steamer, is dead.

ARRIVAL OF THE EUROPA, By the British and North American royal mail steam ship Europa, Captain Lang, which arrived on Sunday, we have advices from New York to the 13th and Boston to the 14th instant. The Europa sailed from Boston at 10 30, p.m., on the 14th, and at 5 40, a.m., on the 16th,arrived at Halifax. After em barking the mails, &c., she again proceeded to sea, and passed Cape Clear at 2, p.m., on the 24th. She saluted the Rock Light at 1 45, p.m., on the 25th, having made the run in 10 days, 17 hours, and 45 minutes. The Europa brought 78 passengers and $170,226 in specie on freight. - The Asia, from Liverpool, arrived out on the Bth instant. The screw steamship Taurus, from Liverpool, reached Boston on the 9th instant. From New York we learn that the extreme heat of the weather, which had been for some time prevalent, had somewhat abated. The screw steamship City of Manchester arrived at Philadelphia from Liverpool on the 9th instant. The resignation of Mr. Robert J. Walker, of the mission to China, had been accepted by the President, and it was probable his successor would be soon appointed. General Cass had written a letter, fully endorsing and approving the principles and policy of President Pierce and his cabi net to the present date. A telegraphic despatch from Niagara Falls, dated the 9th instant, states that, on the morning of that day, the remainder of the Table Rock fell with a tremendous crash. Messrs. Train and Co., of Boston, contemplate building a line of screw-steamers to run monthly between that port and Liverpool, and for that purpose have purchased a shipyard at Neponset. The vessels will be between 2,000 and 3,000 tons. The average daily attendance at the New York Exhibition was between 5,000 and 6,000 persons. A sad accident had occurred on board the steamer Bay State, on her passage from Fall River to New York, on the Bth instant. It appears the crank-pin broke suddenly, and the " walking-beam " falling upon the engine, knocked the cap off the cylinder, and thus caused a tremendous rush of steam, by which ten of her passengers were so severely scalded that two young ladies died shortly after wards, after having been taken to the hospital. A locomotive had exploded on the Georgetown and New bury Railway, killing the fireman, and blowing his remains a distance of 150 rods. None of the passengers were injured. The caloric ship Ericsson was lying at the dock of Messrs. Hogg and Delamater's works, foot of North Thirteenth-street. All the supply and working cylinders of the original construction had been removed, with their pistons, heaters, levers, regenerators, and air pipes. But there had been retained the bed plate, the principal framing, shafts, cranks, the beautiful valve movement, and even the connecting rods which, in the old arrange ment, transferred the motion from the working beams to the crank. In place of the four huge sets of cylin ders standing perpendicularly, there are to be two mode rately-sized cylinders on the line of the keel, and inclined towards each other, making an angle with the keel of about 45 degrees. The supply cylinders are of the same stroke, four in number. One is placed on each side of each work ing cylinder, and worked from the crosshead in the same manner as pumps are often placed, on each side of the air pump, in condensing marine engines. It will thus be seen that the present engines of the Ericsson comprise two working and four supply cylinders. The working cylinders are each six feet in*diameter, with eight feet stroke. Speak ing theoretically of both arrangements, these two moderate sized double-acting engines are designed to be as efficient as the four large single-acting ones previously employed 3 in consequence of working with a higher pressure. In these engines the same air is to be used repeatedly under a high pressure. This is the difference between the present and the former engines of the Ericsson. The regenerator, in a different form, but acting on precisely the same prin ciples, and with, it is presumed, precisely the same effect for good or ill, is retained, and continues to be relied on as the chief economic feature. This is the fundamental feature of the caloric-engine, and the supposition that it had been given up would be equivalent to supposing the caloric engine "an obsolete idea," which is yet far from being the case. Patrick Sneed, whose arrest was so desperately opposed by the coloured waiters at one of the hotels at Niagara Falls some days ago, has been discharged, by Judge Jones, at Buffalo, upon the ground that there are no papers to warrant his detention either as a fugitive slave or as the alleged murderer of Mr. Jones, of Savannah. Accounts from the Utah territory mention the occur rence of hostilities between the Indians and the Mormons. At Somersett, Ohio, a riot had occurred between the Irish navvies. The troops had been called out, and a number of the rioters shot. The mail steam-ship Georgia, with the mails from California, had been severely damaged off Cape Hatteras, and compelled to put into Norfolk. During an alarm of fire at Philadelphia, on the 11th instant, the Franklin Hose Company, while passing the Hibernia hose house, were fired upon by persons inside. None of the Franklin's members were hurt, but a member of the Hibernia, who lived opposite, and was looking out of his window at the time, was shot dead. Fourteen persons were arrested in the Hibernia-house, on whom were found two revolvers and other firearms. Bishop Doane's case was causing some excitement at Camden, New Jersey. The court of bishop ass s embled on the 7th, and the documents having been read, Bishop Doane proceeded to speak to his motion to dismiss the presentment, and concluded by desiring that the papers submitted by him be entered on the record of the court. On this *notion the court was again cleared, and pend ing a discussion on the proposition, they adjourned till Thursday. A telegraphic dispatch from Boston reports that the Three vessels from Newburyport, and three Ann. had also been seized off Fox River. T m of war Decatur had arrived at Pc and the remainder of the fishing squadron was expected, the orders being to redezvous at Portsmouth. From New Orleans, Mobile, and Baltimore we have the following :—" New Orleans, September 8. The total num ber of deaths reported for the twenty-four hours ending this morning was fifty-nine, including forty-eight from yellow fever."—"Mobile, Sept. 8. There were thirty-seven deaths reported in this city yesterday, of which thirty-one were from yellow fever."—The Galveston papers, of the 2nd instant, state that the yellow fever had appeared there a fever still prevailing along the ivlississippi, , Natchez, Grand Gulf, Port Gibson, Baton R The Daily Register The freshet in the Peedee River, in Sot blication on Monday.

The Illinois had arrived at New York with the California mails of the 16th ult. and $683,937 on freight. The health of the Isthmus of Panama was good. The Ist instant was celebrated by the citizens of New Grenada in honour of the adoption of a new constitution, which was to go into effect on that day, and by which many impor tant changes were made in the administration of public affairs. Dates from Oregon, to the 13th of August, state that the Pacific Railroad exploring party, under Capt. M'Clel land, which left Vancouver's Island in July, were at the base of Mount St. Helen's. Immigration was coming into Oregon, and the colony was in good health. _ _ Sandmrich - Islands papers to the 2d of July, received by way of San Francisco, mention the alarming spread of the small-pox among the natives. From thirty to forty deaths occurred daily. Fears were entertained of the de signs of France upon these islands. Two American ships of war were, however, in the vicinity. The Court News man, of Honolulu, reports :—" On the 24th of June the King received in his palace, in private audience, the United States' Commissioner, to present Captain Dornin, of the United States ship Portsmouth, and, afterwards, her Britannic Majesty's Consul-General, to present Monsieur Bodisco, of the Russian Legation at Washingon, and Lieut. of the Imperial Navy of Russia." ADVERTISER COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCI NEW YORK, SEPT. 13. In the money MONEY.—The stock market is quiet market a better tone prevails, although the rates on loans are not easier. Foreign exchange is dull. The ruling rates are on London, 1081 to 1091 ; Paris, 5.131 to 5-16 Amsterdam, 401 to 41; Frankfort, 401 to 401 ; Bremen, 791 to 791 ; Hamburg, 36i to 364 ; Antwerp, 5.15 to 5.171. Ocappii.—l'hroughout the week there has been but a moderate quantity offering, and no change in prices except for the better grades, which being very scarce and wanted for home use, are a shade dearer. The official statement of crop of '52-3, as published by the New York Shipping List, gives a total of 3,282,888 bales. The receipts of this year, owing to the backwardness of the crop, are very light everywhere, and at Mobile and New Orleans will be delayed, owing to the yellow fever, until a very late period. At what prices the stock, which will be run down to a very low point before the close of the season, will be replenished, will depend on later prospects of the crop, the maintenance of peace in Europe, and the price of breadstuffs.

FLORENCE, SEPT. 14, I HAVE already stated in my previous letters that the English residents in Tuscany would be made amenable to the provisions of the new criminal code; and I have now to inform you that, within a fortnight of its first coming into operation, a young Scottish lady has been arrested, and conveyed to the penitentiary at Lucca, on a charge of disseminating Protestant tracts in a village near the baths of Lucca. The lady in question is Miss Margaret Cun ninghame, of Thornton, near Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, who, with her mother and sister, were to leave Tuscany to-day, for the purpose of continuing their travels towards Rome and Naples. Mrs. Cunninghame and her other daughter went to the -office of the delegato, at the baths of Lucca, on Monday morning, in order to have their passports vise'd, the delegato having acquainted them that their personal attendance was required. On their arrival he demanded the reason of the absence of Miss Margaret Cunninghame, and, on being informed that she was unwell and confined to bed, declared that come she must, as he had a commu nication of importance to deliver. When Miss Margaret Cunninghame reached the police-office she was formally charged with the offence in question, was informed that witnesses were already summoned to Lucca to prove the crime, and that, in obedience to higher orders, she must be removed under an escort of gendarmes to Lucca, there to await the further measures which the government might take. She received, I am informed, this announcement with the most unaffected composure; but the distraction of the poor mother is perfectly heart-rending. Miss Cunninghame was accompanied to Lucca by two friends of her family, who took every step which friend ship or patriotism could suggest in such a trying case. One of these gentlemen, a person connected with her own country—Sir William Millar, of Barskimming—made an immediate, but ineffectual, attempt to have the whole matter quashed, by going directly to the Grand Duke, who is now staying at the baths of Lucca. His Royal High ness would not accord him an interview. Sir W. Millar, and his friend, the Rev. Mr. Gordon, after accompanying Miss Cunninghame to Lucca, and again attempting to molify the local authorities, who, however, declared that they were but instruments of a higher will, proceeded directly to Florence, and laid all the circumstances of the case before the Hon. Mr. Scarlett, now acting as Chargé d'Affaires, in the temporary absence of Sir Henry Bulwer. I believe that not a moment was lost by Mr. Scarlett in bringing the case before the ministers now in Florence, and that he will set out for the baths of Lucca to-day, in order to terminate the matter, if possible, by a direct appeal to the Grand Duke. I have no doubt of his im pressing on his Royal Highness, that if this young lady is to be liberated at all, " then 'twere well it were done quickly." So the prison of Rosa Madiai is at this moment ten anted by a young Scottish lady of gentle birth, sprung from the stern breed of the old Scottish Presbyterians, and, if I am rightly informed, a lineal descendant of John Knox. On the considerations which this simple fact sug gests I need not enlarge. They will present themselves spontaneously to every free and Protestant community ; they will there kindle the warmest passions which the human heart can feel. The persecution rages with unabated fury in Florence against the Tuscans. On Sunday fortnight the gendarmes broke into the house of Natale Lippi, a baker, in the Palazzuolo, and there arrested him, and Piero Cieri, also, a baker, and Alessandro Barli, a tailor, on the charge of meeting and reading the Scriptures in the version of Diodati. The house was searched, and the Bibles found in a press. All three were then committed to prison. Barli and Cieri have since been released ; but Natale Lippi will either have to stand his trial for offences against the religion of the state, or, more probably, be condemned without trial by the Council of Prefecture to such a term of imprisonment as they may choose to award. Mean while, upwards of fifty Italians have been summoned before the delegates of the different quarters, and cross examined, in the hope of eliciting some connection between Italian Protestantism and English propagandism. FLORENCE, SEPT. 16. P.S.—The Grand Duke is inexorable. In reply to the urgent request of Mr. Scarlett to have the matter quashed, he has declared that justice must take its course. The Drand Duchess expresses regret for the situation of Miss Cunninghame, but refuses to interfere. The individual dispositions of the members of the ministry are more favourable. M. Lami, the Minister of Justice, will hurry on the trial as fast as possible, and then obtain an imme diate exercise of the Grand Ducal clemency. But on what ground he anticipates that his Royal Highness is more likely to relent a few weeks hence than now I cannot tell. Miss Cunninghame will be tried on a charge of having infringed the 137th article of the new criminal code. With the terms of that article I have already made you ac quainted. It declares that "whoever shall circulate works hostile to the Roman Catholic faith, with the view of seducing any member from that communion, shall be con demned to the House of Correction and subjected to hard labour for a period of not less than five, or greater than ten years ." Miss Cunninghame is charged with having given to some peasants an Italian Bible, and an Italian translation of the " Pilgrim's Progress," and both these books fall under the criminal category. It is but common justice to state that the zeal displayed by Mr. Scarlett, from the moment that the case was first brought under his notice, deserves the highest praise, and I feel unfeigned pleasure in adding that the American chargé d'affairs has seconded him in the representations already made to the Grand Duke, and in the interviews which have taken place with the individual members of the ministry, and, I ought to add, with the Archbishop of Lacca.
