• blished and well-trodden commercial highways to East ern Thibet and Tartary. Some misapprehension has arisen in various quarters as to the proposed route from Rangoon to Esmok. On this important point The Telegraph says : Further, "J. C." speaks of Captain Sprye's proposed route from Rangoon to Esmok as though it were to be by the Irrawaddy. Now, British Pegu, as this writer should be aware, is divided by the Yomah range of mountains, called the backbone of Pegu, into Western and Eastern Pegu, and the Irrawaddy flows through the Western half. Commerce with Western China has been very long attempted by this most circuitous and difficult route from the sea to Bhamo ; but the attempts, although made by many men of enterprise, have been absolute failures. We venture to recommend "J. C." to read the pamphlets issued by the projectors of the land route, which we have felt it our duty to advocate. Re might, too, we think, with great advantage, search after the reports of Richardson, M'Cleod, O'Riley, and others, on the geography of this part of Eastern Asia. had he been acquainted with the results of their travels, he would have known that the country from our north east frontier of Pegu to Esmok is not destitute of roads, and that it is not "inhabited by predatory and barbarous tribes who lend a nominal obedience to either the Bur man or the Chinese Government ;" but the contrary. Considerable ignorance prevails as to the Bur mese territory intervening between our Indian dominions and the western boundaries of China. Our contemporary, however, feels warranted in saying— The territory to which "J. C." refers, belongs to the two Burman Shan Princes of Kiang-Tung and Iliang- Rung (than whom, the pamphlets of the projectors state, there are throughout Eastern Asia none more civilised or more desirous of commercial intercourse with our nation), and is net unknown. So long ago as 1835, 1836, and 1831, British ()faders traVeised it, and found the ' , each coveted with Caravans carrying to and fro front the Chinese western frontier vast quantities of cotton, teas, opium, &c., and saw numerous and exten sive tea and poppy plantations west of that Chinese frontier. " Fine teas" are a matter of taste, and the taste of Captain Osborn may be as good as that of "J. C." The former states that the best teas come from the west; the latter, that you must seek them in the eastern provinces. We will not argue the point. We will only add, on positiie authority, that the teas from the extreme west have a good demand even in the imperial city of Pekin. Did we feel justified in giving publicity to the whole of the information in the private pamphlets of the projectors which are heibte its, *e could add much on this point ; and could, moreover, give details of much interest, in political and military points of view, with reference to the intervening states of the two tributary Burman Shan princes above refer red to. No do -1- those already largely engaged in trading with China may at first sight apprehend some untoward disturbance of present arrange- meets as likely to lid iirodiiced 1i aliening up a direct trade with Western dhina. The nniounded nature of these fettifi is tliits eirkiged Tti4e is yet Mie great etior in the letter of " J. C." requiring present notice. He is, it would seem, more or less interested in the existing trade with China and Sin- gapore, and assumes that he sees in this proposal an encroachment on that trade. Now, one of the grounds of the projectors of this project is that it will open np a toh,olly new trade. They affirm that it will in no way interfere with the existing trade with Eastern China. Nay, more, that it will not retard its extension. The east and west extremities of that *gat enipire are so very far apart, that there can be no doubt extensive distinct trades will be established. Be this, however, as it may, and without adierting to :the military and political aspedts of the I.le haire reason td think dafitain Bprye, years since, submitted to our Ministers --we are well assured that on the success of this project .. _ ......_ . depends, for our own country and for India, vast com mercial interests for long ages to come : and possibly, also, the yet more important considerations of a higher morality, and a purer faith throughout the celestial empire. The real difficulty, however, as we have stated, lies with the Foreign Office. This we think is proved by the fact that the Chambers of Com merce of Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Bradford Halifax, and Huddersfield have—some of them repeatedly—memorialised the Government on the subject, and represented its important bear ing on the interests not only of our home manu facturers, merchants and shipowners, but of our traders in all parts of India. Lord J. RUSSELL, however, professes to be wiser than the united wisdom of all our great trading and commercial communites. This folly is well exposed in a recent city article of the Times, thus : Lord John Russell thinks that " much inconvenience" Might arise from such a "novel" proposition. More over, that it would be "impossible to protect British trade at so inland a city," or "to exercise dte control over British subjects." Next to the possibility of any thing that might tense " ineonvenience to the Poteign Office, the idee,o allowing " British subjects" to run tritliont leading strings has always been the most dis tasteful to that department. The Chambers of Com• Mem have likewise been furnished with a hint that they know nothing of the true interests of trade ) since the very measures for which they are now praying, tinder the idea of extending it, would only bring it into jeopardy. " Redress for any wrong done in such a re mote corner as Esmok," observes his lordship, " could in all probability only be obtained by applying pressure at places more accessible, and so placing in jeopardy the more important interests of British trade on the sea board of China." The foreign Office doctrine there fore is, that we must shut ourselves from the trade of the largest continents and provinces ) provided any diplomatic correspondence that Might arise out of it would have to be carried on with authorities resident at some other locality. ills lordship's words, in fact, may be paraphrased as follows :—lt is bad to trade in the Sea of Azoff or at Odessa, because any disputes would leave to be settled at St. Petersburg, and might com promise our trade in the Baltic. Avoid likewise all intercourse with San Francisco, because the necessity of an appeal to Washington would not only create much inconvenience to the foreign Office, but might interrupt our transactions with New York or New Orleans. In like manner let the Canadians hold no traffic with Chicago, the difficulty of controlling British subjects at "so inland a town" being especially formidable. It is to be hoped that no one will be disappointed with this' official view. It may be a question whether the new route will be found so practicable or advantageous as it Would seem to be from all the evidence at present pos- Bossed ; but there can be no question, supposing, past experience to be worth, anything, that, if it is to be opened up, the task will be performed by private enter prise, not only unassisted, but obstructed, so far as official power extends ; and that it will be only when everything has been fully accomplished by private energy that the Government will step in to encumber it with help. It is clearly insufferable that a Government department, little capable of forming a correct opinion on a great commercial question, should be allowed much longer to act as an obstruction to the extension and development of so important a part of our. trade. It is already openly urged " that the time has already arrived when all matters relating to our trade with other countries, together with our consuls in them, should be transferred from the department of Diplomatic State Duplicity' to that of a Secretary of State for Commerce." Be this as it may, we feel assured that sooner or later the opinions of the commercial world and the interests of the whole community will be respected, and their wishes realised by the successful establishment of a direct trade with Western China, to the great profit of the Chinese themselves, as well as to our fellow subjects in India, and to British trade generally. In the meantime, let all interested in procuring a better and cheaper supply of teas, silks, &c., — and who is not ?—agitate this question and court for it, in all its aspects, the amplest discussion. THE PICTURES AT THE TOWN HALL, We are authorised to state that those friends of the Mayor who lent him their drawings on the occasion of the soirée at the Town Hall, on Friday evening last, have kindly consented to permit those drawings to remain in the Town Hall until Friday next , in order to, enable the public to inspect this beautiful collection. The Mayor has, therefore, arranged that the Town Hall rooms shall be open this day (Monday) and on the three following days,. from eleven a.m. to three p.m., and from six p.m. to nine p.m. No person can, however, be admitted without a ticket, which can be obtained at the Town Hall. Entrance from Exchange-street West. The number of persons to be admitted on each occasion must necessarily be limited, in order that each person may have a. f avour able opportunity of examining the pictures. PUBLIC DEBATE ON CHRISTIANITY.-011T readers will be glad to hear that the debate, so long looked forward to by many working men in Liverpool, between the Rev. J. H. tutherford, of Newcastle, and Mr. Charles Bradlaugh (the secular lecturer who generally hides his real name under the ridiculous appellation of Iconoclast), is to come off this week at the Teutonic Hall. Both disputants are accustomed to public debate, and we have no doubt there will be a very large Attendance of the working classes. FOREIGN INTELLI6ENCV. ITALY. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) MILAN, Oct. 15. Among the many and most important subjects served up for the appetites of the most greedy politicians, all more or less bearing upon the question of Italy, the dessert for the last two or three days has been the late Vote in the Chamber of Deputies, the Iting's manifesto to the Italians of the South, and the never-ending prophecies of the approaching meeting at Varsavia. The result of the division in the Turin Chamber was no sur prise to any one : every one expected the same result, constituted as the present Chamber is by a majority of men whose interest is to promote the extension of the power of Victor Emmanuel, consequently the 290 votes in favour to 6 against the law for the immediate iiiiheiatithi the liberated States was anticipated by all. The manifesto of Victor Emmanuel, notwithstanding that hi every line Nye pereeive the masterly diction of the astute President of the Ministry, charging as he does almost every line, With all the touching pathos and ; Choidest periods of the Italian language- , -selecting every argument to give force and colouring to the subtle sophisms contained in that document, in order to catch the sympathies of Europe in acquiescence of the policy that has been lately adopted by the Cavorian Ministry. Every man who reads this manifesto must admit the great capacity of its author, and therefore the greater prudence in endorsing its arguments, as well as its insinuating eloquence, which i s ca l c nhited, td Annie and deceive the feadei• whoFierras his teelings to be led away by its inipassloned. and bold patriotic tone, especially Coming as it does from the lips of But perhaps it is a little too long, and in calmly reading. over the same from beginning to end, I confess that I am somewhat induced to doubt the sincerity. Of Many of, the iaragraphs,T especially these *hi6li refer to the offers made to cement an alliance between himself (Victor Em manuel) and the young King of Naples, or rather to commence a war to drive Austria out of Lom bardy and Venice, and to cut up the temporal power of the Pope. This assertion strangely harmonises with Count Cavour's late speech, wherein he declared that the policy initiated by Carlo Alberto for the entire independence of Italy has been for the last twelve years the unceasing policy of the Government of Victor Emmanuel, no matter at what cost or at whose o i l s lys s i o true that every man dethronement. untainted with prejudices or personal interest, and, living for any dumber ofyears in Italy, must be aware that, the hot-Ted,' et the n revohitienists *as Tiiritithat frem — tirin eMis cr provinces,erd, ripened, thhaet coomn at continual 'This T n w u .a Rome, a s a os i gt despatched the t e h o e ri central t agitation and discontent were k ent at v work by, industriously g ru-p ,, , • the principles of revolu tion among all classes of the people of those States. The King says that the Sicilians, unable any longer to tolerate the Bourbon Government, took up arms for their liberation, " when a valiant warrior, devoted to Italy and to me— Glefieral Garibaldi; rushed to their assistance. They were ItalianS, f could not. arid Might riot to prevent theM." Then the arrival of the Neapo litan envoys at TUrin to arrange the preliminary formi fcir the proffered alliance of Francis IL to Viotof Emmanuel, and their ," Official and solemn reception" (the 'Words of the Turin Gazette the day following the reception) of the Neapolitan envoys at Turin by the King, the numerous official interviews between Cavour and the Baron ' Winspeare, and the diplomatic dinners to the Neapolitan representatives by Cavour, who no doubt was chuckling in his heart while sipping his champagne, was only to gain time for the result of events in the Two Sicilies ; and to use a plain English phrase—a perfect humbug on the part of Cavour: Ndtwithadriding. that most people kneW that the whole affair of' the organisation of the volunteers was secretly under the protection and assisted by the Government, still this *mild pass muster, provided the question was eiehisiVely left to be decided between the revolutionary army and the troops of Francis 11. The King and his ministers *Mild then be less exposed to the severe censure of the donslitu tionnel and other French journals in their recent articles, exposing Victor Emmanuel's reckless defiance and violation of the civil laws which have hitherto governed the nations of Europe. But the secret is too plain ; the burning flame of enthusiasm which was .blown from Calabria to the Neapolitan capital was beginning to diminish. The .Neapolitans were beginning to reflect. General mistrust and even disgust Was being felt by the most influential portion of the Neapolitans for the men by whom the Dictator was encircled, and in whose hands the affairs of the State was entrusted. The Royalists were beginning to gain courage : the reactionists bolder and more threat. ening. In a word, it was clear to every one that if the Garibaldini were left to themselves, Francis 11. would to-day again be master of Naples, The Government of Turin knew this, and every means Were adopted troops despatched to Naples under the pretence to preserve order and regulate the flame of that revolution which was there own creation, andwhich, according to the " Head of the Revolution;" as the Pungolo styles Cavouy, has been for the last twelve years incessantly fanned by his party. These troops and artillery were sent from Naples to Caserta and Volturno to support the Garibaldini, and, if the truth must be spoken, were the principal support of the Dictator in turning the fortune of victory on the side of his men. Victor Emmanuel declares that he is free from any: sentiment of ambition in his present policy, his only object being the liberatien of Italy, telling the people of the South that his troops are adVancing among them for the purpose of establishing order (not very coniplinientary to Garibaldi's government) : not to impose his will, but to protect and cause to be respected the will of the people, the last phrase of the manifesto declaring that the era of the revolution in Italy is now at an end. The above sense of the King's words means in com prehensible English : I have no more ambition. ' than any other monarch ; and having now suc deeded in all that was to be gained by the revolutionary party, after a few Months active Organisation and daily feeding the present enthiP siasm, I shall soon be in a position to organise a force sufficiently powerful, especially with the same auxiliary 'of fighting pioneers that have already gained. us the Two SiCilies i to drive Austria from Venice despite all the 'force shomay be able to collect on the shores of the Adriatic, or within her forMidable quadrilateral. Let us suppose that Venice will be either given up or taken by force of arms from Austria. Where will Cavour fix the limits of the It alian frontier . 2 - Will this statesman he content to limit it to the boundary of the Venetian provi nce ? Is it not possible to extend itself to Trent, Istria, and Dalmatia ? or, will it, as the IlMpendence, Beige says, only stop until it has incorporated Malta and the lonian Islands, backed up as such an interprise would undoubtedly be by t he armies and fleet of Louis Napoleon ? Let it not be supposed that this or any of my previous letters are in defence of the despotic and barbarous government of Francis 11. My , only desire is, regardless 'of all parties, to lay before your readers a plain statement of the events as they daily occur in this country, without throwing myself into the regions of romance, or drawing on my invention for the most exciting and dramatic pictures to please those whose fancies or tastes are only tickled by the perusal of such productions. Let me repeat what I have already said in my former letters, that I conscientiously believe that the real happiness of Italy would be 'as securely, if not more firmly, established by a loyal and sincere alliance between the King of Naples and the reforms which were stipulated between the French Ambassador and His Holiness as in the unity of Italy, in whose long existence I have not, the least faith, as will be hereafter proved so soon as the present excitement cools down. Our latest news from Naples informs us of the appointment o f the Marquis Pallavicini as p ro- Dictator, and th e gigantic work that has been accomplished by that Piedmontese nobleman dur ing the few days of his office, going to the same extremes as Crispi and the republicans, but only in another direction—namely, to secure the Cavorian policy, and shut up the mouths of all those who opposed the annexation of the Neapolitan kingdom t o Piedmont. The pro - Dictator, during the few days of ffiee has abolished the o ff ice o f S ecre tary- Generalh is office, of the Dietatorate, ther e by di m i n i s hi ng the influence of Crispi. The abolition of the un limited powers of the governors of the provinces (it was high time, as some of the brutalities that characterised the Bourbon government were already perpetrated th by ese champions of the sovereignty of liberty and the people) ; the dis missal of several gove rnors ; the abolition of the Neaplitan diplomacy, begging the Sardi n ian representatives to assu me the 'protection of the Neapolitan subjects, fixing the 21st inst. for the votation by universal suffrage with the following formula :—" Do you wish Italy united, indivisible, with Victor Emmanuel, the co nstitutional King, and his legitimate descendants?'' The prohibition of all political meetings committees ; the arrests of a large number ofdnfluentil persons who are called Reactionists for convenience, but who are influential Neapolitans opposed to the annexation ; an intimation to all particular men and republicans opposed to the government to quit Naples—Mazzini among the number. The most unceasing exertions to keep the game alive till the day after the elections, and then placidly say to the Italians buon giorno, which in this sense means—Now that that is done, what can you do ? In fact, here there is a continual fight between one political faction and another for the lion's share of their victim. At the present moment Naples is, in point of fact, a gigantic ne st of political intriguers of every class and colour : Cavorian, Republican, and s emi-liberals , & c ., &e., who think more of the loaves and fishes than viva l'ltalia libera ! Troops are daily arriving in great numbers. The King is expected in a few days. The roar of the artillery on the banks of the Volturno is still heard at Naples; the torrent of excitement is still carrying before it all reflection.. and sober consideration, and despite all this, we 'are told that the people are called upon to give their solemn vote for the dethronement of one king in order to place another in his stead. Is it possible that the people of Naples can be prepared in their pre sent state for such a solerrhi and important act as that which they o.7o*,CrilledUponto perforin P The , Gazette, d'AuOat says that the most pressing injunctions have reached Victor Emmanuel from Paris to push on his journey to Naples—to drive Francis 11. from Gaeta, and cause himself to be proclaimed King (lithely before the meeting of: the northern Sovereigns at Varsavia, there being no remedy for Un fait accompli. At the same time that these instructions are flying across the Alps to Victor Emmanuel, similar instructions from the same great . magician of Europe are daily leaving for, Servia; the Dantibian Principalities, Bulgaria, (Sic.; ,in order, by the end of October, that Russia and Austria will have other Work cut out for thoni,besideS their Coriteniplated . PoliCy, as regard§ the pieitiOn of ,Italy". It is,lnit natural that LoniS Napcileori shad assist Victor Em inannet, as it was by a similar revolution that he owes his present position as Emperor of the French. The St.. Petersburg correspondent of the Battier persists in stating that Queen Victoria and the Emperor Napoleon will be invited to the meeting at Varsavia ; and even goes so far as to name the palace where these two sovereigns The be lodged ; but of this lam most sceptic. Dr Gazette d'August also announces that splendid entertainments are being prepared for the sove reigns; one of Nthidli not the least 'brilliant; will be a reVie* of 1d,.000. Of the iiieot select Au . s 9 dn troops, -which are destined to reinforce the Rtissidn. army ,of observation encamped on, the banks of the Pruth, and to be ready to march upon the Turkish or Hungarian provinces as need may re quire. Taking a trusty glance at the political horizon of Europe, all is obscure and threatening --every Power is preparing for war, and none for Peace= The preparations must end In into active work those frightf u l engines for tlje destruction of thousands of the human race, in order to satiate ambition on the one side, and put down tyranny on the other. lam sorry the length of this letter prevents my sending other news concerning Naples, especially some observa tions on General Eber's letter, of the battle. of Caserta, to the Times, and also a similar letter of the correspondent of the Debats. This for my next. As I imagined, the pro-Dictator of Naples was going a-head rather too fast. A telegram this nionierit announces that owing to fresh differences bet*een the Mini s try ; Crispi, and the pro-Dictator, Garibaldi sent for the Marquis went to,easerta ithemnpanied by his `Secretary; and had a long interview With the Dictator, at which were present Crispi and Cattaneo. At the conclusion of the meeting the .pro-Dictator tendered his resignation, but it does not say if the same was accepted or not. I have this moment heard that Spain is determined to interfere in the question of the Papal States. It is reported that Russia and Prussia are about to withdraw their Ambassadors from Turin. MILAN, Oct. 17. The task of a correspondent who conscien tiously performs his duty to the public, and can keep himself from sharing in the feelings of the political, parties by Whom he is continually sur rounded; or running with the popular mania of the crowd .whether right or Wrong ; is, I repeat, not so easy as many of yotir tedders'inay imagine. During the Period that I have fie honour of being your correspondent I have in'Pariably endeavoured to lay before you a plain . straight forward account of the most important and inte resting matter relating to the question of Italy and the social character of the Italians, scrupu lously avoiding every sentiment of party feeling, and stripping each subject of the roniantie clap trap, varnish, tinsel, and spangles which is now the order of the day to dress up all the acts of the present Italian drama, but too often calculated to dazzle the mind and excite the emotions of the heart, thereby deceiving the inexperienced reader that has never been behind the scenes, and conse quently ignorant of the 'secret ttieks and cunning' deception brought into action in order to call forth the applause and admiration of the public. In some of my recent letters I have called the attention of your readers to several important 15di:dgraphs in Count Cavour's opening speech in the Chamber of Deputies, and in my antecedent to the manifesto of King Victor Emmanuel to.the Italians of the south, for the purpose of explaining their true meaning' by stripping the saine of their romantic and poetical attributes or dipiottatic clap-trap, which is absolutely necessary to pre vent the deception that they are almost certain to create among those who do not probe into the very marrow and secrets of the origin and pro gress of the present revolution. My letter of to-day will have for its_ theme a similar topic— namely, Count Cavour's late reply to Baron Winspeare, which, no doubt, has already appeared in your journal. Your reade'r's will remember that the Neapolitan Envoy's letter to . Cavour was a protest against the entry of the Piedmontese' troops into the Neapolitan States, and against the part they recently played in the battle of Caserta. The period which struck me most forcibly is 'the following !—" The King Francis 11. abandoned his capital, and thus de facto abdicated his crown in the presence of his people." This, I apprehend, is the most illogical and extraordi nary interpretation of the law and sovereign right s of princes that Wa,s ever penned by any statesman. Should this interpretation of the law which regulates the sovereigns and nations of Europe be accepted by the other powers, then I say the sooner we crush the cause which has given birth to this violation of the rights of princes, the better. I should 'like to ask Count CaVour, if his villa was atta cked b y a g ang of his ow n discontented peasantry, and to protect himself more securely he, with his took up their position In one of his out-houses, would he by this act be de facto deprived of his right to his villa ? This is not a. jot , more out rageous against common sense and ever y p rinci p le of th e law and. rights of man, than the d o g ma established by his Excellency Count Cavour in his letter to the Neapolitan Envoy. The next period o f thi s diplomatic gera is as follows : " The civil war which rages in the . Neapolitan territory, and the absence of a regular government, place in extreme danger those principles on which social order rests. In this emergency the citizens and constituted authorities of the municipality of Naples forwarded or presented to his J . ),lajesty King Victor Emmanuel addresses, bearing num berless signatures, imploring the aid of that Sovereign." By whom were the smoulderine , sparks of the revolution fanned into the flame of civil war P If there existed no regular government, w4iat authority had the municipality of Naples to assume the right of forwarding addresses to King Victor Emmanuel? And the numberless signatures? I have carefully hunted over the files of two official journals, not trusting to my own private communications, and I find that in one the number of signatures is put down at 50,000, and the other 60,000 ; but the population of the city of Naples alone is over 500,000 ! Then again, the Count is most sadly out in stating that the implored. assistance was before the occupation of the Piedmontese troops— the fact is patent to every one, that the Pied montese troops entered. Naples before these addresses were signed by the citizens. As I said in the beginning of this letter, my object is to bring naked truths before the eyes of your readers, without at present entering into the merits of the revolution, or the soundness of the policy propounded by the Cavourian Ministry. The above brings back to my mind an important part of Advocate Verrarfs speech in the Chamber of Deputies, on the new law for the annexation of those states, which is as follows :—" Count Cavour wishes to close for ever the era of revolu tion. A glorious desire, but ineffectual ; because revolution produces revolution, and the present annexation will destroy itself ; it was created by revolution, and by the same it will be annihilated." I promised in my last to give a few particulars respecting the Htlgarian colonel, now General t e l a i t at jealousy pp in the i Eber in Garibaldi's a rm y . I have often re q uested y of ou th r e re . s a t d a e t rs em t e o nt r s ec ti e n il d • e let r g s r from the warmest partisans of the revolution , English travellers, or o thers which make a \ t h e hasty run to Naples, something like a French man making a flying visit to England for a week or two, and then calmly sitting down to compile volumes on the laws, institutions, characteristics and social habits of the nation. Is it possible? And from whom is the half of the information' obtained that appe ars in the columns of our journals? From those whose interests it is to represent everything in the blackest colours, or from men who cry to -day Viva Vittorio Bramanuele, and to-morrow Viva Francesco it Secondo. Those who trust to their eyes, without the experience of a long residence and intimate knowledge of all the facts and circumstances, allow their fancy and pen the most unlimited indulgence whenever they visit and describe the scenes of Italy, and—" whose lightest word would freeze thy young blood."—in the graphic colouring of their narrative., In reading the letters of the Times' correspondent at Naples, we must not forget that it is the Hungarian Eher, and who is a general in Garibaldi's army. It is, therefore, very natural that Eber should always give a most glowing-account of the various engagements of the Garibaldians. This is very clearly shown in Eber's letter of the battle of Caserta, because we find the same all one-sided, and in every half-d.oien lines the mention of Eber's division, but which I have been unable to discover in any of the accounts that have reached us up to the present time, and .we have the most authentic details of every movement. The letter does not mention a word about the Piedmontese aid 'that was brought up at two in the afternoon, and which turned the fortunes of the day in favour of the Garibaldians ; nor does it give the least account of the killed, wounded, or prisoners on the side of the revolutionary army, but which, I am positively assured from private letters, is not less than from 4,500 to 5,000 men. The papers here are always ready to press into their columns the number of the killed, wounded, and prisoners of the Royal ists the same day of the battle, which is utterly impossible ; but from the first moment Garibaldi landed at Messina, up to this day, we have not had one official return of the losses on the side of the Garibaldini. The correspondent of the Debats, writing to that paper, says that during the battle of Caserta, Garibaldi's trousers Were torn tip by bullets, and not with standing being *minded in the abdoinen he per gisled •in riot, hivipg the sanie dressed, and edit tinued on the field tilt the la.si shot Was fired. The same dotrespdndent adds that it Was Wond?r- . ful to see the good - ht ilmired features of Gari baldi amid the shower of shells and grape, as lie looked down at his tattered trousers, saying "I wish I had another pair to put on." Isn't this nice ? Isn't it romantic ? Isn't it a delightful anecdote for a poetical young lady's album ? This is not one syllable more absurd and French thati Dumas' pitcher of water and loaf by the side of Garibaldi, as he reposed beneath the portals Of the chttreh after the battle of Milano; or the cannon ball, also reported by . Thinias, that carried away the left stirrtip of ,Garibaldi's saddle with tonching or ,WoUnditig the General's foot: When We read such aeCennti, €ificf, v;flien ife find hundreds of persons in France an`dd gt :A icitia 'Who' believe the same, ought we to be surprised that the ignorant and superstitious Sicilians and Nea politans consider that Garibaldi was inoculated with the blood of Jesus Christ, or as many call him the brother of Christ. Another correspon dent of the Morning Post asserts that Capua had surrendered. There is not the slightest founda tion for this report—on the contrary the most energetic preparations are making both at Capua and Gatta . fOr a vigorous defence. The Petrie, of tlie I,lth instant, confirms what I wrote to you dri the 3rd, iii referende ,to the prat taken by the Sardinian troops in the h;attle of Caserta. journal states—" The Piednior;tese tidopq and artillery that came up with the reseri'e en the Ist instant in a great measure decided the fate of the battle." lam glad to see this confession of the Patric, because it confirms the correctness of my correspondent's letter, and enabled me so early to iitit,Teur rettders in possession of the real secret that decided the f'o'rtunes of the day. lam in formed, on excellent aiftlforityi that Garibaldi has written to the King, urging tbe desfratch of 12,000 men to take up the offensive igainst the Bourbon troops on the Volturno, and most earnestly urging the King to hasten his journey to Naples, promising implicit obedience to all the commands of the King. Numerous opinions are already afloat among the public as to the principle that will be adopted for the government of Naples, but the most likely system will be the division of that kingdom into four or five provinces, each under the guidance of a governor, and these subject to a viceroy established at Naples. In the pro-Dictator Mordini does not seem disposed to follow the eXamplp of Naples, but to persist in his determination of electing an assembly similar to that of the Central Provinces before their annexation, and which, in my humble opinion, would be fairer towards the people, in order to give them time for reflection, instead of pressing on the annexation in the present state of wileexeitement. My letter will conclude with a chapter of accidents, on es ft which ended in the loss of upwards of fifty pos, being the explo sion of the boiler of one of the Piedmontese steamers on the Lake of Garda. One of the Austrian boats, seeing this terrible accident, immediately hastened to the assistance of those thrown into the lake, and succeeded in saving seventeen of the passengers, otherwise the number would be sixty-seven persons lost instead of fifty. The next morning nearly all the journals of this city and Turin, in reporting this melancholy accident, had the bad taste to omit the humane conduct of the Austrians ; and those which re ported the same, did it in such a manner as to infer that the Austrians allowed as many as possible of the passengers to be drowned before they came to their assistance. This littleness of mind is so characteristic of the Italians, that I should not be doing my duty if I did not state that I have since seen one of the passengers, who assures me that the Austrians came immediately to their assistance, and behaved with the greatest hunianity and kindness towards those that they succeeded in saving. The next case is of a poor music eopyist, who two days ago threw himself into the canal opposite the church of San Marco. Another Mechanic, last week, destroyed ro hims uced elf by cutting his throat, both cases being pd by extreme misery, there being unfortunately at the present moment general distress among the working people, as is but too evident from the crowds that are to be seen every morning about the Government pawnbrokers. Two days ago a fire broke out in the Government cigar, tobacco, and snuff manufactory, destroying more than half of the building, doing damage to the amount of 150,000 francs, and throwing out of employ ment for some days not less than 700 or 800 persons. Several other fires having taken place here, and a short distance from Milan, I am dis posed to believe that it is the work of a gang of rascals who are endeavouring to create disorder and misery among the people for political pur poses. The municipality of Milan have at last made a forward step, by organising a city force of fifty men, or as the Milanese say, ran over to. London, and kidnapped fifty of our London policemen. The copy is the most perfect that I have ever seen, except that the policemen of Milan are dressed precisely like the inspectors of London. It was amusing to see the sensation that these men created the first day that they were let out of the municipal den, because the people looked at them with the same wonder and curiosity as if they were so many full grown savages of the back woods of America or wilds of Africa. Some of the low people stop and scrutinisingly examine them from head to foot, grin, toss up their heads, and ejaculate in their pure dialect, " Oh, bell! Oh, bell!" which in plain English means " Well, this beats cock fighting." The high glazed hat has been a sub ject of severe criticism with the humouristic journals of Milan, it being suggested for a variety of purposes : some that it will serve as an excel. lent seat for those who wish to rest themselves in the shade during the heat of the *summer months ; for those that are of short stature to enable them to stand on in order to read the notices, &c., which are placed a little too high; and to others for domestic purposes, as a sauce pan fovooking. A telegram this moment announces a procla mation of Garibaldi to the Neapolitans announ cing the approaching arrival of Victor Emmanuel, and calling . on the people to give the King a most enthusiastic reception.

THE WARSAW CONFERENCE. The Warsaw Conference is limited to two days, and the Globe remarks that it seems to indicate either a remarkable confidence in pre-established harmony, or a remarkable difference in the pro bability that prolonged confidence would produce cordial understanding.

AUSTRIAN REFORM. VIENNA, Oct. 21. The official Weiner Zeitung publishes a mani, festo of the Emperor, introducing a diploma founded upon the basis of the Pragmatic Sanction to belbinding on all heirs to the throne, to be drawn up for all the provinces, and to be enrolled among the federal laws. The diploma announces that henceforth the legislative power only be exercised with the co-operation of the Provincial Diet as well as of the Reichsrath. The number of members of the latter is to be increased to 100 by councillors elected by the Provincial Diets. The members are to be distributed among the provinces in proportion to their extent, their population, and amount of their taxes. The Ministers of Justice, Cultus, and Interieur, as universal central authorities, are suppressed. The Court of Chancery is restored in Hungary, and one for Transylvania is to be established. The Chancellor of the Hungarian Court is to be a member of the Ministry. The affairs of the -other provinces are to be represented in the Imperial Councils by a Minister of State. A speeial authority is to be appointed for public instruction. The financial affairs of all provinces not Hungarians are to be represented in the Ministerial Councils by the President of the Court of Cassation. The interests of national economy and commerce are to be represented in the Ministry by a Minister of Commerce. The financial privileges of the Reichsrath are to be considerably increased. The contracting of new, and the conversion of existing loans, the hypothecation, and the sale of the landed property of the State are to be subject to the approval of the Reichsrath. The Cus toms, coinage, all monetary matters, credits, the regulation for the issue of bank notes, postal, railway, and telegraph affairs are only to be treated by Government with the co-operation of the Reichsrath; other legislative questions are to be deferred to the competency of the different Diets. The treatment of general questions of all non-Hungarian provinces is reserved for a confe rence of the councillors of the empire representing those provinces. As regards the representation of non-Hungarian provinces, detailed instructions are to be given to the Ministers of State on the basis of autonomy, and the representation of all classes and interests in provincial Diets. The presentation of the provincial regulations, drawn up according to these principles, and the convoca tion as soon as possible of the provincial Diets, is ordered. The constitutional institutions of Hun gary are to be re-established. The Hungarian language is to be introduced a s t he officia lan guage in judicial, political, and administrative proceedings.

The Courrier d e Dimanche says, up to the present M. Thouvenel has not given a decisive reply. It is asserted, however, that Austria would only make an attack ag ainst Sardinia in the event of her obtaining the moral concurrence of Russia and Prussia. SUPPRESSION YONS OF THE GAZETTE DE L.

The Times mentions as a report that Prussia is inclined to demand of the Emperor Francis Joseph, as the price of her support in Europe, that Austria should help in reviving, at no distant time, the question of the Danish duchies. THE TEA MARKET. The Timm city article reports as follows :—The intel ligence from China has caused mdre firmness in the tea market, and business is taking place ity private contract . at a partial recovery from the late depressed prlces. At the public sales which commenced to-day the trade bought freely. Full rates were obtained for all kinds. The light portion of the Bombay mail will be distri buted in London on Monday morning. The Herald considers that the aspect of affairs on the continent wears a more threatening front th,tii ever. A Gotha newspaper supposes that the only daughter of the Duke of Saxe-Meinirren, just turned 17, is the destined bride of the Prince of' Wales. The Duke and his daughter visited the Queen at Coburg. The _Daily News, in announcing the re-assembling of the Cabinet to-day, says that in internal affairs we never made less claims on our rulers; but with reference to our foreign concerns the meeting of the Cabinet is most timely. It is stated that Count de Persigny arrived in Paris on the direct summons of the Emperor. It is believed that he will replace M. Thouvenel at the foreign office. Such an appointment will be understood as an indi cation that the state of affairs is felt to be very critical in the highest quarters. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE PERSIA. The royal mail steamer Persia, Capt. Judkins, from New York, with dates to the 10th instant, arrived in the Mersey on Saturday last at one o'clock p.m. The New York Herald of the 10th says, with regard to Mr. Lindsay's mission, " that he can achieve nothing here at this time of political excitement, but he may learn much. It is desirable that uniform rules shall be adopted for the guidance of navigation; but the opening of the coasting trade to foreign flags, and the abandonment of our volunteer system of naval defence, we cannot concede, with safety to our selves and justice to our national interests. His labours may do something towards awakening our widely extended mercantile community to a uniformity of action regarding their interests, from which good may flow." There is no news of importance with the exception of the loss of the Atlantic steamship Connaught, the particulars of which were given in our publication of Satur day last. COTTON. (From Tr. P. Wright's Circular.) NEW YORK, Tuesday Evening, Oct. 9, 1860. Our market was steady with a fair amount of business each day last week until Saturday. Spinners and speculators were the chief operatdts. Prices were firm with a hardening tendency. On Saturday there was a good deal of excitement with large sales, caused by tele graphic advices from New Orleans, announcing a heavy storm there, and representing.serioas damage as probable to the growing . crop. The transit cottons were with drawn from the market; holders advanced their prices, and the day's sales amounted to 7,000 bales, at an advance of fully we per lb. The business was chiefly speculative for resale here and for export to England. Yesterday the market was more sibilued, but without change. To-day has also been quiet, with more dispo sition to sell. The sales for the week have amounted to 20,000 bales. The export has been—for Liverpool, 2,527; Bremen, 440 ; Hamburg, 151. Total, 3,118 bales. TRANSIT COTTON.—Previous to Saturday there was some looking about for desirable parcels of floating cotton. One parcel of 1,200 bales New Orleans was sold on private terms, freight 11-16 d. On Saturday a large business would have been done on the basis of 11c for Middling, with ad freight. had not holders withdrawn their samples, in conformity with orders from New Orleans. Yesterday holders were more dis posed to sell, and samples were put out with more freedom. To-day there is a desire to sell. One list of 1,000 bales New Orleans, with freight at d, was soli on the basis of 11c for Middling. This may now be considered an outside quotation. SOUTHERN MARKETS.—By telegraph for a week later we learn that a moderate business only was done in Mobile without change in price. In New Orleans there had been an active inquiry, and an advance of le per lb., caused by an apprehension that the violent rain storm which passed over that city on the 2nd and 3rd instants might have extended over a large portion of the cotton region and caused extensive injury to the crop. The sales up to Friday night, sth instant, were 54,500 bales. On the 6th instant the market was more quiet; sales 4,500 bales, without change in price. LIST OF PASSENGERS, Mrs. W. L .

THE LIVERPOOL INSTITUTE On Saturcia, lasts a public meeting was held at the above institution for' the purpose of presenting to the pupils of the day and evening schools of the institution scholarships, prizes, medals , and certificates ; which had been awarded them at the examination h'eld by the directors, and also of the examinations of the Society of stete, the University of Oxf ord, and the D ep artment of Science and Art. The platform was occupied by the principal gentlemen' conne cted with the institute. Sir John Bowring presided. In P. G. Heyworth, Presi dent of the Institute, Mr. Wm. Bitssris, with his brother, Mr. James Brown, from America, thh' Mayor of Lan caster, Messrs. T. M. Mackay, George Holt, Cs T..Bow ring, W. Rathbone, George Melly, I. Hadwen, ay dunk, S. T. Hobson, A. Holt, Charles Holland, R. Shell, S. Smith, Revs. S. A. Steinthal, W. C. Stallybrass, Griffiths, and Boucher ; E. S. Samuel, R. Johnson, R. W. Ronald, C. S. Samuel, Professor Elliot, Armstrong, 0. Williartis s Minsky, S. Thornely, J. Jenkins, Macllveen, Finnic, &d., Mr. Cariss, the secreta r y , were also present. The body of the hall and the galleries were filled by the pupil ' s of the school and their parents. Sir Xonss - Bownino, upon taking the chair, was loudly cheered. He said that he felt it a great honour to Preside at that meeting, and then spoke at some length upon the' *life of competitive eXaminations, which he said formed the mist, characteristic and admirable part of the institutions of China; whose population, he should inform them, represented orre-third of the whole human race; and the interest which that population took in these matters had begun, certainly, to be felt every where ; and he saw in this locality an exhibition which brought his thoughts back to the regions which he had lately left. What he wished for China was that that country should have the means of instruction which we have here,—what he wished for England was that the sane passion for distinction should impress the universal mind, especially of the working classes, which he found in what comas called the Celestial, flowery land. (Great applause.) Ile had lived for some years in a province the' Viceroy of Which ruled over more than thirty millions of human inhabitants , and it had been more than once his fortune to' see the rush which took place into the provincial capital when the students came there to strive for those handing by which they reached the highest dignities of the State. No man could be elected to office who had not gone through a severe competitive examination; and persons of the loss'est origin were invested with power—which he did not say they wisely exercised—but they were entrusted with a power Which in the monarchies of Europe we had no example of, because he had known of a viceroy who could boast that he had cut off 100,000 heads. (Laughter.) This was in the province of Kwangtun. There was no family so poor which did not send its most hopeful youths to the seminaries of education. In that province at least there were two millions of scholars ; 9,000 were selected who came to the' provincial capital, and of those 9,000 the nuisiber selected was only 70. We might well consider what the competition was; but he could give them no idea of the delight which spread through a family, through a clan, through a district, when any distinction was conferred upon a /outh belonging to them ; yet, he must be allowed to say that the most distinguished of those men would be honoured with the greatest amount of popular glory. [Here Mr. William Brown entered the meeting, and was received with loud cheering ] Sir John Bowring proceeded. He was glad to see that they paid honour to the man who represented the principle of which he had been speaking. (Loud applause.) It was our ride and privilege, as English men, to have more information, applicable to the daily uses of life, than others possessed. The Chinese had no such hooks 'as we possess, but their system of education was admirable. Still, there was nothing could compare with England, in the past, the present, or the future. (Hear, hear, and loud applause.) In the past nothing was to be found bat comparative progress, and in the future the culmination of knowledge. (Applause.) He was delighted to find, by the prize-list which he held in his hand, evidence of the judicious di rection given to popular studies : he saw a reference to hand-writing. In that respect we were behind the Chi nese, who would not receive a document a single character of which could be spoken of with animadversion. He was sorry to say that this, which seemed an unimportant matter, had been too much neglected at home ; but it had fallen under his observation that Lord Palmerston had refused a number of despatches, on the ground that those who chose to write should write in a manner to be read; and he wished them to be re-written. (Laughter and applause.) He saw no reference to orthography. He was sorry to see that. Some years ago, when a young countryman had been sent to him, he gave him the word " candle " to spell, and he spelled it, thus "C, a, e, double 1." (Great laughter.) Sir John proceeded to observe that commerce, after all, was the great contributor to civilisation. A great man had said that peace has its victories, greater than war; but he (the speaker) said that the conquests of commerce were more splendid. more beneficial, than all the deeds of any conqueror who figures on the pages of history— (applause)—and he said so especially with such an exemplar before him, a man so eminent in Liverpool — he referred to Mr. Brown. (Applause). The merchant, and the merchant's clerk too, ought to be well in structed : he might have to have intercourse with great varieties of men ; and he (Sir John Bowring) rejoiced that the great value of the modern languages was better understood. Ancient languages represented antiquity ; but the most important to us were the latest and the new. (Applause). Now, remarkable changes were going on. Barbarous languages were giving way ; and, referring to the English tongue, the speaker said that it was by far the most widely extended and generally understood; for in every clime of the world there might be some person found who understood it. French was next in point of value, and with Spanish we should be able to go over the whole American continent. He had known children of six or seven years of age who could speak several languages accurately, and if we used our ears, 'omitting the difficulties of grammatical construction. why should not men do so with equal ease. He should encourage and recommend a study of the language of China, for it was the language of nearly one-half of the human race ; for a person going there with this know ledge would make his fortune in a very few years if his character was good, his habits sober, and he possessed the necessary perseverance. Sir John then proceeded at some length to dwell upon the advan tages of the various branches of learning for which prizes were about to be distributed. Mathema tics he spoke of as inducing accuracy of thought; and after a few passing words in reference to the value of the decimal system, said that, in respect of the Fine Arts, the Chinese were noted for their grotesque pic tures, as well as for some beautiful specimens of paint ing. But there was generally an incongruity in their compositions. He had, for instance, once gone to see a picture of a horse, which was fifty tun , s larger than the stable which he had to enter. He concluded an excel lent speech by drawing attention to the value of the prizes which he was about to distribute, and by praising the diligence which the pupils must have shown. The Snennwtv, (Mr Cariss,) then called each of the pupils to the platform, when they were awarded their prizes, by Sir John Bowring, who addressed each of them in a most kind and affectiona te manner, ur g ing upon them the necessity of diligently attending to their studies.

SOCIETY OF ARTS. The " Societyfor the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures, and Commerce' , is a Metropolitan Association, of which his Royal Highness the Prince Consort is the president, and with which the Liverpool Institute, and upwards of 400 educational, literary, and other institutions are connected, in efforts to' advartco' their respective aims, and especially to supply encouragements to systematic study for youths who have quitted the day schools to engage in business pursuits. At• the examination heldin Liverpool last May, 13 certificates were obtained by n ine candidates as follows, all the candidates i being from this instituter:— -John James Bew, third class in logic ; Andrew Davidson. third class in arithmetic ; Timothy Bran Eawards, second class in geometry ; Rowland Evans 0144 class in political and social economy ; James Griffiths , third ClUas in logic ; George H. Neilson, third class in arith metic ; Yobs* M‘Millan Small, second class in aaithmetic and geography ; rrederiek Smith, third class in geography, English history, mid English literature ; Henry Warden, third class in geography a nd English literature. Mr. MAcKAY then . addressed the pupils in a suitable speech, observing that, after the able address of Sir John Bowring, he scarcely knew what to say to them. He con sidered an assembly like that—the distribution of priz es to deserving students—one of the most-interesting that could be attended, and proceeded to point out the great benefits which arose from education, and said that, from his experience, he had always found that those who . were persevering and diligent in their studies at school, became the best men and • the most successful in going through the battle of life afterwards, and concluded by uring the pupils on to increased exertions in their stu g dies, and by pointing out the benefits that arose to them by competitive examinations. The Rev. Mr. Stallybrass next addressed the pupils upin the "culture of the heart," and was followed by Professor Griffiths. Each of the gentlemen were repeatedly cheered by the scholars in the appropriate remarks they made to them. Mr. GEORGE MELLY congratulated the boys upon being dressed in the uniform of volunteers, as in their training, as such, they woad be taught the duty of obedience and attention to orders. Mr. Melly, at some length, urged that, while the education of the tipper classes was provided for by themselves, and the poorer classes by public schools, the latter of whom progressed most favourably, he thought that the subject of educa tion was not sufficiently attended to by the upper middle classes. in the samliee w a a lso yin ho w p h e i d eh th t a h t ey th h e ad pu eo pils mm w en o e u e l d d , proceedand din after life they would become the ornaments of society. Mr. ALSOP, as a parent, took exception to the remark made by the last speaker, in reference to the "military appearance of the boys." F approve or aveir being in uniform,or h is part, h and thoughte did not approve that the t Institute was for educational purposes only, and hoped that they would not be too much taken from their studies by attending to their drill, to make them have a military appearance. [These remarks were received by a storm of hisses from the boys.] Mr. Wm. RA.THBONE offered a few brief observations. Mr. P. HxIWORTH said the board had at first objected to the boys having the volunteer uniform; but petitions came in such numbers from the boys for it, and backed as they were by Mr. Wm. Brown, that they had at l as t yielded their consent. (Applause.) Mr. JOHN JENKINS, ,M.A., addressed the audience at great length upon the importance of introducing into our system of instruction the science of industrial economy ; and, to illustrate its importance, referred to the strike at Coventry, where he said families and a whole community had been reduced to starvation in consequence merely of a want of knowledge of the resources of other nations interested in the art of silk weaving. Mr. JOHN SMITH, in talking of the spread which popular education had made, referred to the fact that, forty years ago, the Liverpool Corporation refused to give £5O towards the establishment of the Liverpool Institute, in order, as it was said, not to give power to the people. Those times were now past, for the Town Council had, only a few days since, contributed a thousand pounds towards the festivities in connection with the opening of the building for the Free Library, presented to the people of • Liverpool through the munificence of Mr. William Brown. At the conclusion of a long speech, he proposed a vote by acclamation to Mr. Brown for the Free Library, and his exertions on behalf of the work ing classes. The audience rose en masse, and gave Mr. Brown three hearty cheers. Mr. BROWN, in returning thanks for the honour done him, referred to the volunteer movement, repeating his often-recorded opinion that it was beneficial to the volun teers, and rendered the country, with its commerce, se cure. Did he think that its influence was opposed to commerce, learning, and goal morals, he would not, for one moment, give it his support ; but he sincerelybelieved that it was of the highest importance ; and therefore, he had endorsed the application of the boys of the Liverpool Institute. (Loud and long-continued cheers.) He spoke at some length upon the importance of a practical edu cation, recommending and eulogising the decimal system, and concluded by congratulating Sir John Bowring on his return to England from the country of the Chinese. Three cheers were again given to Mr. Brown on resuming his seat. He again got up, and in eulogistic terms proposed a vote of thanks to the chairman for his conduct in the chair. Mr, Shell seconded the motion, in some appropriate remarks, and the audience rose upon their feet and accorded the vote of thanks heartily and vociferously. Sir J. BOW RING, in returning thanks for the compli ment, expressed his pleasure at the happy nature of the proceedings, dwelling upon the advantages and enjoyment deriveable from the acquirement of a good education, and the disadvantages attendant upon ignorance, con cluding by repeating the Chinese parable—" Useless the gcm in the rock, worthless the mind untaught." This concluded the meeting. FRIGHTFUL RAILWAY ACCIDENT. A WOMAN KILLED. On Friday afternoon, a most shocking accident occurred on the London and North-Western Railway, between Warrington and Earlestown. A poor woman was crossing the line at the bottom of Vulcan . Bank, about half-past four o'clock, and, before she had tme to get out of the way, was run over by an empty eng ine from Preston. She was completely cut to pieces, and her face so frightfully disfigured that no one has yet been able to identify her. Indeed, nothing has been found upon her to enable anyone to form the remotest conception as to who or what she was, or where she came from. Immediately upon information being conveyed to Warrington, Dr. Davies was despatched, but he could, of course, render no assistance, as the poor woman was killed upon the spot. The deceased was apparently a middle aged woman, wore a plaid shawl, and strong lace-up boots, and from her appearance was probably an Irish agricultural ' labourer. The body lies at an adjoining farm house, awaiting the coroner's inquest.— Warrington Guardian. GRAND BAZAAR IN AID OF THE RAGGED SCHOOLS. A grand bazar, in aid of the Industrial and Ragged Schools, erected in Soho-street, will be opened to--day in St. George's-hall. It will be a magnificent affair.. The number of contributions is something enormous ; and the quality and beauty of each article is, we under stand, unsurpassed. From the social position of the fair who have consented to preside at the stalls, and the nobleness of the objects for which these efforts are being made, we have no hesitation in premising that the re sult, in a monetary point of view, will surpass anything ever effected in Liverpool. The bazaar will extend over three days. The following donations have been made by Messrs. Urquhart and Adamson, of Bold-street :—A. beautifully fitted-up small Arabian bedstead of Italian walnutwood, with silvered plato glass panels at head and foot ; silk hangings, richly trimmed, with bedding, S:c., all complete.—For sale at Mrs. Fletcher's stall. A handsome Arabian mahogany doll's bedstead, with plate glass panel at head; rich silk hangings, beautifully trimmed, with mattresses, beading, &c., quite finished. — For sale at Mrs. Pieton's stall. SATURDAY EVENING CONCERTS. —A grand concert was given on Saturday evening in the Concert Hall, Lord Nelson-street. The hall was as usual crowded to excess, as the Mayor (T. D. Anderson, Esq.), William Brown, Esq., William Rathbone, Esq., avid other well known local gentlemen were announced to be present. Among the vocalists present were Miss Witham, a lady whose popularity is rapidly increasing in this town, Mr. and Mrs. Scarisbrick, and Miss Wynne. Mr. J. Skeaf, jun., presided at the piano forte, and conducted the entertainment with his usual taste, and, we may add, his usual success. Before the latter portion of the concert had began the several gentlemen mentioned above briefly addressed the audience, commenting on the difficulties which had to be overcome before these Saturday eveeinc , concerts could be established on a successful basis. 'Each of the speakers was listened to with atten tion by the large assembly; and there can be but little, doubt that the concert was not only amusing but in structive to those who were preserit. It is now many years since the project of establishing cheap Saturday evening concerts for the working men was formed, and since that time their popularity has been gradually in creasing. Those given at the Concert-hall havt.' gene rally stood foremost in the list; and, if conducted on the same principle as hitherto, will, we doubt not, continuo to improve their position, and to justify their motto — "To make the mechanic a better man, the man a better mechanic." D a hm's!TituE SARSAPARILLA AND DANDELION PILLS. — Certain Liquid Preparation of these drugs are vended as the very best form in which to take them, but the public can con vince themselves of the fallacy of this, when informed that to liquid preparation of any drug can be kept from fermenting, unless Spirits be added, by doing which the medicinal pr o p er-, ties are entirely destroyed, the Blood is heated instead of being cooled or purified, and the patient not only looses money, but is deceived, and the ailment under which he is suffering gains ground, frequently laying the foundation of disease which shortens Life. The proprietor of Dr. Jebb's Sarsaparilla and Dandelion Pills is the only maker, by Act of Parliament, under Royal Letters Patent, who can prepare these two drugs, so that they can be given as a pill.
