Messrs. Cobden and Bright are both here at present, and visited the Bourse on Wednesday. There are very grave rumours on the silbject of an intention on the part of the Government to mtgataie a progressive tax of some kind or other I npon collateral successions, as a compensation for the suppression of the octrois or petty excise duties. It is also hinted that the appointment of M. de Forcade, as the new Finance Minister,. has something to do*with this arrangement, M. de - Morny accompanied the pillager •to Compiegne, and Will, tettii:n a,long with his Majesty at the end of the week.

ITALY. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) MILAN, Nov. 26. In this communication 1 resume, as promised in my last, the subject of the policy and meads that are at present adopted by the Sardinian government, to defbrit arid Bribe out of Italy every vestige of Francis 11. of Naples and Francis Joseph of Austria. There is scarcely one day of the week that the journals of this country do not invent the most exaggerated stories of the bar barities of the Bourbonic and Austrian Govern ments, and the necessity of the Italians making every sacrifice in their power to resist to the last any attempt to establish that iniquitous system of government, the present benign regime being the only true essende of liberty and paternal con sideration for the happiness and sovereign rights of the people. These ate the daily themes of the journals df Milan, Turin, the central provinces, 'the Pontifical States, and the Two Sicilies. For being liberally paid by the government to keep up the enthusiasm of the people, especially as the same has more than once evinced a downward tendency. The task of many of the Russian, Prussian, French, and even some of our English journals which are wider the influence of a 'power ful political party or individual, is to agitate as Much as possible the subject of the cession of Venice to Sardinia, fora pecuniary compensation, and the necessity of compelling Austria to adopt this triode of finally adjusting the Italian ques tion, - ratlicr than expose Europe to all the horrors of a long and sanguinary war. It is but too clear that the great object of Louis Napoleon is to avoid -such a catastrophe, which in all human probability would end in the long run in driving him from the position he now holds among the - sovereigns of Europe. It is, therefore, not at all to be wondered that we should see the effects of the great influence that man can command, spread itself iu almost every country of Europe, where every argument and plausible sophistry are incessantly brought before the world to prove the necessity and right of the Italians to ,demand from Austria the cession of her last Italian province. _ The Italian journals as usual are daily depict ing the position of Francis 11. as being most des perate, and that within the last few days a per fect panic has seized the King and his brothers, and that they dare not venture beyond the bastions; that the officers are almost frantic for having embraced a cause tliat has no hope of success, and that the soldiers refuse any longer to obey • the orders of their commanders. A similar pic ture is drawn of the garrison of Messina, but from private information supported by the recent orders of the day of the Royalist General Ulloa. I know that these accounts of the Italian jour nals are utterly false. So far from these reports having even- the shadow of truth to support them, it is well known that the soldiers at present at Gaeta and Messina have evinced and still con tinue to demonstrate the most sincere loyalty towards their unfortunate monarch; and many whose period of service expired last month refused to avail themselves of their right to return to their homes. These are facts and not inventions. It is also notorious that within the last three months the most seducing offers have been made on the part of the Sardinian government to the commander of the fortress of Messina, to deliver it up to the Garibaldini or Piedmontese, but he has been proof against all these offers, and when lately requested to abandon the same replied, that he would never surrender the Citadel unless com manded by his sovereign ; and that in the event of force being used, that he would defend it to the last extreme. My latest information from Messina is to the effect that the Pied montese are preparing to bombard the for tress. My last informed you that matters at Naples was far from proceeding with that unani mity of which we read in many journals. My letters received this morning from that city state that Farini and the Piedmontese government is every day becoming more unpopular with the Neapolitans, and that every man suspected of the slightest opposition to the existing government is arrested under the pretext of being a spy of the Bourbons. During the night of the 17th instant upwards of one hundred citizens were arrested by the Carbineers, under the pretence of being connected with the Society of the Camo risti. It is also positively a sserted that the — police were ordered to arrest Colonel Nicotera and . several hundred citizens the night preceding the, entrance of Victor Emmanuel to that Pity, on the charge of a conspiracy against the We of the King, the execution of which order was only , stopped " by the interference of a distinguished personage holding a high rank in this branch of the army ; '—(the Carabineers). These are the precise words of the .birtio, of Turin, of the 23rd instant. It will be seen from the above brief, sketch that the government of Sardinia, is not quite so "liberal and fraternal" as is so generally supposed. The arrest of a Venetian by the Aus trians is " barbarous tyranny," but the arrest of scores of Neapolitan 6040 i§ . kittple apt of htimanity on the part of the Piedilloiltbse to keep the citizens out of danger In running my eye over the same number of this journal I find two extracts from the Unita and Movimento, both of Genoa, which describe the barbaritY of the Piedmoritese ponce towards olpnel ,'l~atnliianchi F (~vlio'ni our faders t lil rt,thetilher I mentioned in one of iny former letters); . as -being even more brutai thßn any :of the atrocities committed by I the, savage satellites of either the, Aust i rian or Bourbon Governmepts. is stated by these i t , , = journals Twin', who hari been note h 1 t 1 oa more than five months, without trial or the slightest cause assigned for his arrest, was n fete days ago secretly removed - from the prison of Sant'Andrea to another place of incar ceration at present unknown. It is also stated that the poor man, on leaving his cell, was too weak to ascend the steps of the prison van, whereupon the officers of the prison threw the poor devil into the same with such violence as to • inflict a set'ere. wound in hig head; leasing him like a dog weltering iii hig blood.

'the state of affairs on the 19th instant was as follows :—The fleet of the Piedmontese had returned to Naples. Their attack will be on the land side, and their advanced posts were 1,500 metres from the mole and the forts. They were placing 150 mortars. in line to open fire, and three out of the five batteries constructing were ready on the 18th. The besieged kept up a fire to impede the construction of their batteries, but their aim was bad, and the works were not inter rupted. Typhus fever had broken out in the garrison, which was too numerous for the place : it consisted of about 18,000 men. The Piedmon tese were 15,000 strong. The besieged indulge in the vain hope that Austria will come to their assistance ; but subaltern officers who were spoken to look upon the capitulation as only as a ques , tion of time. ATHENS.

THE EMPRESS EUGENIE IS MANCIIESTER4 The train, as we stated in our impression of yester day, arrived at the Victoria station at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock. Very few persons in Manchester, however, had become aware of her Majesty's visit, but long before' the time at which the train was due, some 200 or 300 persons had. assembled at the Victoria station to witness the arrival. Owing to the informa tion of the intended visit being unknown in Manchester before, the termination oI bilsiness neither [lib Mayor nor any of thk so far as wb fi air; were present to rebeiVe her Imperial Majesty. There was a strong body of police, however, under the direction of Superintendent Leary, at the station, and Captain Palin, Superintendent Gee, and Superintendent Maybury were also in attendance. A telegram had previously been received by Mr. Johnson, the proprietor Of the queen's Hotel, to prepare the requisite aceom modatiOn fot her Imperial Majesty atid suite. Mr. Johnson had in attendante a carriage drawn by a couple of greys to convey her Majesty to the hotel, and two carriages for the suite. A passage covered with rugs had been laid, along which her Majesty was to pass from the platforni to the carriage. On alighting, her Majesty was received with load cheers, and at once proceeded to the carriage. As she passed along she bowed gracefully, and appeared gratified with her re ception. Colonel FaYe and the Marquis de la Grange having taken their seats in the same vehicle, her Im perial Majesty, followed by her attendants, at once drove off, amidst lolid cheering. The . carriages drove up Victoria-street, Market-street, and Piccadilly, direct to the Queen's Hotel, where they arrived at half-past twelve o'clock. A body of police was stationed on each side the entrance, and a consider able crowd of people had gathered in front of the hotel. Her Imperial Majesty was loudly cheered on alighting, and was received at the vestibule by the worthy host and hostess, and conducted to the suite of apartments engaged. (BY BRITISH AND IRISH MA GNETIC TELEGRAPH.) MANCHESTER, FRIDAY NIGHT. To-day the people of Manchester have been in a state of great excitement, on the occasion of the.visit to this city of the Empress of the French. Her Majesty and suite are occupying apartments at the Queen's Hotel.. Early in the morning a crowd assembled in front of the hotel, and intense' excitement and anxiety were shown to get, a sight of her Majesty. Her Majesty and suite left the hotel, accompanied by the Mayor and the Town- Clerk of Manchester. As her Majesty entered the car riage the crowd cheered most enthusiastically, the Empress frequently bowing. The throng of people and - vehicles was so dense that there was some difficulty in extricating the Royal party. The cortege drove rapidly to Peel-park, Salford. The Empress was first taken round the . marble statue of our own beloved Sovereign, which she looked upon intently, and then exclaimed, " Ah, yes, it is very good !" The Royal party then entered the building, and spent some time in visiting the library, the museum, and the of ir. asked questions different ' galleries. Th e E m p ress s i gne d her name in the aut ogra ph b oo k . Th e E mpress was nex t takendteto . to the The constantly, S on's ,Paennd seemed determined to know everything, especially about the' number- of women employed there. Returning through Salford, the Empress next visited the Man chester Free Library, and again signed her name. Her Majesty next proceeded to Messrs. Birley's macintosh works, where she made several purchases, signed her name, and asked if it was not there that the Emperor's ponton boots were made. On being told yes, she nodded assent. FrOm these works her Majesty was conducted to the large warehouse of Sir James Watts and Co., which she inspected very Carefully and curiously Her 11lajesty gave an order here for a moire antique dres's, the design to be the Atholl plaid. Her Majesty then departed amidst the loud cheering of the large crowd assembled in front - of the building. Her Majesty was everywhere well received, and seemed very much pleased. Her Majesty returned to her hotel about about half-past three o'clock. The fatigues of the day did not in the least seem to effect her Majesty. At five o'clock the mayor and town-clerk went to the hotel and presented to her Majesty an address passed by the City Council this afternoon.' His worship the Mayor, in presenting the address, said he must express his regret`that her Imperial Majesty's visit to this city was to be of so short a duration—so short that it allowed no opportunity of paying to her Majesty those atten tions which, as the civic representative of Manchester, he was anxiou'L to shoW. He had only heard late on the previous evening that her Majesty would visit this city, or the arrangements for her reception would have been very different. Early this morning, however, he had called a special meeting of the City Council for the afternoon, the object of the meeting being to pass an address to her Imperial Majesty on the occasion of her visit to the city of Manchester ; and he (the mayor) had the pleasure of informing her, that although the notice calling the meeting was so short, the members of the Council assembled in large numbers, and that they unanimously passed the address which he now had the honour of presenting to her Majesty. The Town-clerk then read the address of the Corporation.—The Empress, in reply, expressed the great gratification she had experienced by the attention which had been paid to her in this city, and also said how greatly gratified she had been by what she had seen at the various places she had visited. The address which had been presented to her was most flattering, and she could assure his Worship the Mayor that she fully appreciated its contents. She further said that she should ever look back upon her visit to Manchester with pride and pleasure, and expressed the hope that, some future occasion, would enable ber to again visit the great commercial city of Manchester. —The Town-clerk then said that be hoped her Majesty would allow the Corporation to forward to hen Majesty through the French Embassy the address engrossed on vellum,'and that the one left would be simply deemed a copy. To this her Majesty was graciously pleased to signify her assent. After the presentation of the address, Miss Curtis, the Mayor's daughter, had the honour of being presented to her Majesty. Miss Curtis was most courteously received by her Imperial Majesty, who entered into conversation with her. Shortly after wards, the Mayor, the Town-clerk, and Miss Curtis withdrew. Her Majesty dined at seven o'clock this evening. Her Majesty will depart from Manchester, en route for London, some time to-morrow. It was understood that her Majesty would pay a visit to Liver pool, but the Marquis de la Grange sent a telecrram to his Worship the Mayor of that borough, and to the DAILY TIMES, to the effect that her Majesty would be unable to visit Liverpool.

Warn Lanark's knights to gird their mail, Rouse the brave sons of Teviotdale ; Call all, call all, from Reed's weir path, To the wild confines of Cape Wrath And let the news through Scotland ring!" Dr. Craig moved—" That the committee be con tinued, and that arrangements be made with the Ist Cheshire that the proposed corps rray be enrolled with that company ;" which was seconded by Mr. James Flat. Mr. Duncan Campbell proposed—" That in thr‘ time, names of persons intending to join be rece Ted and that the corps be' organised at once." He spoke in favour of a kilted company. The motion was seconded. Mr. Conway addressed the meeting, which shortly after separated. THE OPENING OF THE FREE LIBRARY. Brown's magnificent library will be opened to the • public on Monday morning. The greatest and most complete preparations have been made : indeed no effort has been wanting to perfect every department. The walls are dry, and decorated with the paintings already noticed in our columns. Mr. Brown has supplied forty massive mahogany tables and desks and seventy-two forms, for the use of readers ; a carpet of india-rubber has been placed on the passages in ,the middle and head of the room, in order to deaden the sound of the fall of the feet of visitors, and the whole building is well lit with gas. There is a . deficiency, hoxever, of day-light: and we cannot help thin kin g , that if the central squar e in the roof—in which the most powerful jets of gas light are inserted — were replaced by glas : s, that the deficiency would be met s atisfactorily. The sitting-room will comfortably accommodate 400 persons, and on any extraordinary occasions, 500. The students' room is not yet fitted up ; persons desirous, however, of followin, any particular branch of study will ,be accommodated with sitting-room detached from that of the general body of visitors. It ha s not y et been determined to add a female's room. It appears that Sheffield is the only town in the kingdom where the ladies are • separated from the gentlemen ; at the British museums and other kindred institutions both sexes read and study inthe sa me apartment. Expe rience, however, will point out the best arrangement in this respect for our own library. There has been no ad dition made as yet to the staff of attendants ; it is expected that their number will have to be doubled. The crush on the few firs li t days will b e ne cessarily overpowering. A bod y of poce w . ill be i n a ttendance to maintain orde r and render assistance to the officials in charge. We understand that the contract for providing/ refresh ments for the-new Assize Courts, St. George's Hall, has been given to Mr. Speiser, of the Victoria Hotel. T H E CHANCERY CO URT.--On Thursday, and also up to two o'clock yesterday, a sitting of the Chancery Court of Lancashire took place at St. George's Hall, before W . M. James, Esq., Vice-Chancellor. The business was of a very technical character, and devoid of interest except to e p t to the parties more p articularly concerned. THE CROSBY CAMP POLKA : JAMES SMITH, 76, Lord street—This spirited and excellent polka is composed by Mr. C. W. Smith, of Lord-street, and dolacated to the lieutenant-colonel and officers of the Ist Battalion. This polka was played at the ball of the Ist Battalion, held lately at St. George's Hall, and was universally admired. A no' woman named Anne FOUND DEAD.—A y‘,ll-r. . HUM phries.was found dead in Higlifield-street Smithon Thursday night ; and a carpenter named Hugh was found dead in his house.—A man named Aspinall, a painter, died, yesterday, in the Royal Infirmary, in consequence of injuries inflicted by a man, who struck him with a poker on the head, on Saturday last. Inquests will be held in the above cases this day. ,-, LIVERPOOL INFIRMARY FOR vIIILDREN.—Returns for the month of November. —Fresh patients admitted, 177 ; Patients who have received treatment, 408 ; Patients remaining under treatment, 261. Honorary medical officers, Mr. Stephens and Mr. Hey ; assistant medical officer, Mr. Rowe; treasurer, Arthur Dempsey, Esq. ; honorary surgeon dentist, Mr. Newman. PHILHARMONIC HALL.—lire have much pleasure in calling our readers' attention to the advertisement in our columns of an oration by the distinguished orator Mr. T. Mason Jones on "Garibaldi and Italy," in the above hall, on Friday evening next . Mr. Jones has just returned from Naples, where he became acquainted with the several leaders of the Italian revolution, and enjoyed the confidence of Garibaldi, the great liberator, himself. We may th ere f ore e xpect that this stirring question, in such hands, will receive a most interesting and eloquent exposition, he having visited the scenes of the battles, and himself witnessed_the English legion under fire. No doubt a large audience will attend next Friday to hear him. THE BIBLE IN BELGIUM.—The Observatenr of Brus sels publishes a communication from St. Trond, in Bel gium, which states that four days back, at this latter place, an extraordinary scene took place. A man exposed for sale at a stall in the market-place a number of Bibles of the Evangelical Society; a person bought one, stuck it on the top of a pole, sprinkled it with turpen tine, and set it on fire. AVhilst it was burning, he loudly denounced the society for distributing. Bibles. On this a crowd which had assembled rushed on the dealer's stall, tore the Bibles to p i eces, and scattered the frag ments about. This led to a tumultuous scene, and the gendarmery had to interfere, and to make several arrests before order was re-established. THE DAILY TIMES, S&TURDAY, DECEMBER 1. 1860 LIVERPOOLioLibE (Before Mr. RAFFLES) • A LI t TLE LOVE AFFAIR.

Mr.• Bluck said he rtpreared for Captain Matshall, the master of the ship, wire' tlialled 4 . he prisoners with mutisy a nd refusin g to do their duty. The ship hauled into the river, and was all cleared and ready for teat The prisoners were a portion of the crew, and refttsed trial their work, so that he had to get riggers to do the Work: They. repeated l y refused to obey the C4oll'l iir,:ileig,drid,went below. some time after it Was discovered thStr.tge,ctfe# Of the boatswain 1,33 found broken op a en, and the Men vet iii4oo4,4ti When °pie .

A flag was then hoisted for the police, and the men were given into custody, although it was a serious matter to the captain to lose a fair wind and tide; but he thought better to run the risk than to take a set of mutinous iieri on board the ship. The captain was then ex amined, z:,:tid Void out the stateinent of Mt.

He beliefid the prisoners shipped with the intention of committing a robbery, and then to get away from the ship. In reply to Mr. Cobb,. the captain denied that he made any direct charge against the prisoner Campbell for having broken the chest open. Ordered the mate to put him in irons. None of them said, "don't do the man any injury," Charged them-with mutiny wh en-.they Wert brought on shore. To Mr. Raffiea—The men refused repeatedly to do their duty, as I asked them several times to work, but they would not work, and went telow. I Ordered then' up several tinies t but they refused. They were all More or less drunk, and there was very little difference in their Coridrict, Mr. Williams the pilot who had charge of the. ship, was examined, ' 'and fully corroborated the statement of the captain. To Mr. Cobb—He said the captain and mate acted very quietly to the prisoners; but he said the captain, in self-defence, struck one of them on the head with irons that he had in his band. Campbell became indignant when charged with breaking the boatswain's box. The boatswain of the ship was examined, and proved the same facts. Mr, Cobb addressed his Worship on the whole case, and contended that it all arose out of the charge made against the men for breaking open the boatswain's box. lie argued that the captain bad no right to strike one of the men— Mr. Rattles said be did not think the captain4vas justified in striking the man on the head, but still he thought the conduct of the prisoners very bad'; and, therefore, he would send them. (except Mulvany, who got the blow on the head) to jail for six week, and Mulvany for four weeks, with hard labour. _ _ - 77 CHARGE OF BIGAMY. George Nicholson was brought up on a charge and of bigamy. • Mr. Bluek appeared for the prosecution , said he would only offer as much evidence as would warrant,a remand, as proof of the first marriage was not yet ready. He then called Mary Ann Nicholson, who said—l live in No. 13, Oak-street, and was married to the prisoner two years and a-half ago. He , told me he had been married before, but his wife was dead. I have since discovered that she is alive. She was in an asylum then ; and when I found out that she was alive I left him. The woman is now alive. Mr. Bluck said he would produce evidence of the first marriage : the wife was there, but she could not be examined, and he would ask for a .remand to produce the evidence. The pr:soner was then remanded. (Before Messrs. HYSLOP, HUTCHISON and CORIaLLY.) BEERHOUSE CASES. Mary Payne, Gordon-street, was charged for Sunday trading. Dismissed. William Hart, Conway-street, was charged for Sun day trading. Dismissed. Patrick M‘Guire, Adlington-street, was charged for doing business at one o'clock in the morning. Dismissed. CHARGE AGAINST THOMAS WINSLO W. Thomas Winslow, so well known to the public, was summoned for allowing drunkenness in his eating house , Vauxhall-road. Mr. Cobb appeared for the defence. Police-officer 730, said at twenty minutes to one° on Sund a y morning I heard a great noise in the house and went in, where I got twenty men, the greater part of whom were drunk. . I went at a quarter to two and found fOnr men drunk there. Some of them were per sons I saw there before. The witness was cross-exami ned by Mr. Cobb in a very able manner, as to the symptoms of drunkenness. Two other Witnesses were examined, and on cross-examination by Mr. Cobb, they admitted that Winslow had a very large .trade in the eating line, and Mr. Cobb showed that Winslow's butcher's bill was over £l2 a week. lle said if people went into the house of defendant drunk his client could not help it. The defendant was fined 20s. and costs. CAUTION TO VOLUNTEERS., Lieut. Kelly of the 4th Lancashire Volunteers, applied for a summons' against a person who had got a volun teer dress in March last, and went away in June, taking his dress worth £5, upon which he had paid only £2 10s. This offence is contrary to several sections of the act of Parliament, which were quoted by Mr. Raffles, and a summons was granted. (Before • Messrs. CHILTON, CORRALLV, and JEFFERY.) Several persons were summoned about water rates. Mr. M'Gowan appeared for the Corporation, and Messrs. Blackhurst and Almond were for certain defendants. The question at issue was whether people who occupied tenements, where landlords compounded for rates, were to be charged on the gross rent or on the nett rent, payable to the landlords after certain'other taxes pay able by the landlords was deducted. '.l..'he arguments were uncommonly dry and uninteresting, and at last the magistrates decided that the rates were to be payable on the nett rent only. BANKRUPTCY COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner PERRY.) In re J. H. BARBER & Co.-=-This was an applica tion for certificates by John Heath Barber and William Henry Ellis, who carried on businesss in Liverpool as iron merchants. Yesterday, Mr. Aspinall, instructed by. Mr. Woodburn, appeared for the bankrupts, and Mr: Evans for the assignees, and also for the Messrs. Wright & North, of Wolverhampton, and Mr. Warden, of Birmingham, creditors, who had given notice of opposition. The bankrupt Barber, on examination by Mr. Evans, stated that he stopped payment on the 24th of July, and that he obtained goods from Mi.' Warden on the Bth of July, for which they gave him acceptance at four months date. He stated that since filing a petition for arrangement in this court on the 11th August last he had expended £5OO, not in his trade, but for private debts—attorneys, accountants, and clerks. He was further examined as to transactions in accommodation bills with one Jukes, and also with Mr. Hickman, which last exceeded £7, 000 . M r. Evans then addressed the court, and drew attention to the several items in their balance sheet, showing that their liabili ties were £27,000, creditors holding security £22,700, and that the accounts showed a deficiency of £19,000. Mr. Evans said if ever there was a case i,f reckless trading that was one, for the bankrupts had only been in business four years. He had also to complain of most irregular bookkeeping, for it appeared that an amount of £1,500 received in one slim: bad been entered in the cash book under various dates, and in several sums.--Mr. Aspinall said his friend Mr. Evans had not suggested tliat there was any fraud, and no doubt reckless trading vas a grave matter for censure ; but, looking at the way the lords justices bad dealt with that offence recently in the matter of Poolcy, he hoped the court would not think it a case for with holding protection.---His Honour said he considered that there had been most reckless. trading, and that the bill transactions with Jukes and others, together, with the irregular bookkeeping, called for a suspension of the certificate ; but as no fraud had been suggested, he should grant protection. The suspension would be for eighteen months; and the certificate, when granted, to be of the second class. • In re JOSEPH INlATnEws.,—This bankrupt, an hotel keeper at Holywell, appeared on his last examination; but the balance-sheet not being filed in time, the meet ing was adjourned to the 12th of December. Mr. Evans appeared for the assignees. The Times' Paris correspondent has heard that a large sum of money,, probably not much under 100,000,000 francs, will.be soon asked for the service of the navy.

This officer was severely wounded hi die storming of the forts of Taku, having received a: gingall ball, which passed transversely through the lower lip, and, notwithstanding which, though d 6 ested to tithdraw to the rear by the colonel of of the' b'attali'on; be ; with great gallantry, kept his phtee with the starters: He served with the Marine PaitateW in the Crimea ; olunteered for duty in the trenches; eind Wns contintaliy in the front : "Under the Walls of Pekin, Satuttiny i §epf. k‘. "I will resume my account of occurrences up to' this point. I cannot exactly tell you that Song-chow is taken, but I believe that the results are .much about the same. We had a very agreeable day yesterday in moving about after cavalry, from five o'clock in the morning until sit in the evening. Our brigade, which consisted or a wing of the 99th Regiment and our battalion, with a battery of artillery and some cavalry, moved round to clear out some intrenched positions between Song-thaw and Pekin. t beliete that at the same time 'the French force and our other brigade were to assault Song-chow. General Grant and all our chief people remained with us. The fighting—if after the Crimea I may apply that name to- it—began about half-past nine o'clock and lasted till - about one o'clock. Sir John Mitchell, who commands the division up . ltere, cautioned us not to be in a hurry to fire, but to let the Tartar cavalry come quite close up to us. It was soon after this that down came a whole cloud of, horse. We remained quietly waiting for them, and the Dragoons were also quiescent, for the purpose of - giving. them, at the proper moment, the treat of a charge. But our cavalry were denied a chance; as, although the Tartars are by no means afraid of the Sikhs, they cannot stand the gleam of the movements of the "King's Dra goon Guards." However, these masses of Tartar horse advanced steadily within about 200 yards, when, greatly to their consternation, but unfortunately too much in anticipation, the 99th, who were on our left rear, opened fire. This suddenly brought up the Tartars, and then we formed line. Meanwhile the Dragoons, considering they were in accesible distance, charged the Chinese cavalry. The Tartars waited until our men had neared them within fifty yards, and 'then they fired a volley, wounding a captain rather badly, and killing a trooper. They then turned about, and made rapidly off. If the ground had only happened to be tolerably favourable, very few of them would have escaped, but the sly fellows were on the other side of a broad ditch, over which our first line of dragoons went in fine style and safely, but on account of the prodigious dust which was kicked up by the charge the second line could not see the ditch, and , so the one half of them were baffled. However, a considerable number managed the ditch and caught up the broken enemy, laying them straight with somewhat greater rapidity than they had expected. "After the defeat and rout of this body of cavalry we kept following the enemy, and cleared out four camps. All the tents were left standing, to which we set fire. About two o'clock we halted near a military village, and after taking it (its defenders bolted after a few shots) our men were let go in to refill their water bottles. I assure you it is very hard and thirsty work charging cavalry about such a dry and insupportable country. The millet has been but lately cut, and vou have a plain of stalks, standing about a foot and a half high, with sharp tops that pierce like spikes. Several of the horses have been lamed by these points. As I had no immediate or nobler exercise for my sword, I strolled about the vil lage, trying my skill at cutting heads, indeed; but on this occasion only heads of puzzled fowls, as they ran past me to accidental cover. This is very pretty execution for hungry men, In company with two other as equally skilful headsmen, I secured about 20 foWls, which established quite a passible cuisine for us. Nor should we have been without our dessert, for in one .garden I found some delicious grapes. However, there was no time to cook, and therefore I was compelled to put up with only a fragment of biscuit. "We set fire to this place before leaving, which is only seven miles from Pekin. I wish we had made a dash on ;• I verily believe we should have taken the Celestial metropolis, with very little loss, for most of the Chinese troops were outside. "And now for some news which will be very interest ing. I have told you all about the loss of Mr. Parkes and of the Times' correspondent. I can now add that when we sent in fur the captives, the Chinese returned the artful and dubious answer that Mr. Parkes had already left to return to our camp, and that they had not seen him since he set out. I think the Chintte will not dare to touch Mr. Parkes or the prisoners. We have sent a second messuage to say that if the prisoners were not given up in two days, we should force our way in and sack Pekin. This of course we shall have to do if Mr. Parkes and our other friends do not speedily appear, whether the treaty thereby be spoiled or not. A flag of truce came in this day with a despatch for Lord Elgin. The latest reports are of negotiations • again." BIRKENHEAD CHURCH AND SCHOOL SocrEry.—A meeting in aid of the above society was held last night, in the Argyle-rooms, Birkenhead, and was attended by a considerable number of persons. The chair was occu pied by the Rev. A. King, 8.A., who introduced to the audience the well-known and celebrated Pastor Chiniquy, whn has been justly styled the Luther of America. This talented convert delivered a strong and energetic address on the present state of Popery in the Canadian province, and gave a cheering. and most satisfactory account of the great progress the Word of God was makinz amon,st its Roman Catholic inhabitants. The Rev. R. C. 'King and other gentlemen subsequently addressed the meeting. THE VOLUNTEER NIOVEMENT.—ThiS MOITHICItt Still goes on most progressively in Liverpool, and while the present companies are daily being augmented are in the course of formation. The employes con nected with the corporation water works, under the control of Mr. Duncan, the engineer, have formed them selves into a very strong company, numbering upwards of 100, and will form a very valuable wh adjunct to will brigade. Their uniform will be nearly the same, with the exception of a variation in the colour of the facirws, and the trousers, which will be a dark blue instead b of black. Mr. Duncan has been appointed captain, Mr. Duncanson and Mr. Sherlock lieutenants. Nor BAD FOR AN EDITOR.

The basquine for morning dress is gatrally of dab ;; when made of velvet it is more dressy, and is , fruit:kW trinnned round with a bias of quilted satin, • which gives if Ai` 4earit, appearance. The paletots of cloth and of velvet are hrwided , in a pattern, trimmed with bands of coloured mateiiat. our with narrow fur. Pelisses and Louis XV. mantles are &mining more rare, and are only made in silk, with ornaments of guipure or passernenterie. Velvet shawls have always , wide &bides' of gtripnre ; nothing looks more stylish than these for -altiee,e, dress. Some straight velvet scarfs, trimmed with fringe; have been seen on young persons, but they appear very unsuitahle for the weather. Many black velvet mantles are trimmed with white satin ; it 11M a' very good effect. Die , SEte ato made with round waists or with paints, and dit open in front, so as to show a chem . /- sate. These hotlines' Can' 13e mode in two ways : generally, they are opened in tho shape' of a heart, about half-way down the bust, and with a smolt collar turned back, and revere; but occasionally the opening is carried down to the waist, with straps across the front . ; this is the most suitable for evening wear. Light and open sleeves are also both worn ; only the latter are principally for dcra-teilette, For, taffetas dresses, flounces are still preferred; bit those of moire and satin it is better to trim with macaw of velvet and guipure.

Black is, We think, more than ever in favour. Indeed, this year, nothing hat sombre shades are admis sible, even for paying visits of etiquette. We will pro ceed to describe a few dresseg foe walking or visiting toilette :—A black taffetas—very rich silk, with a wide ffoutee set on large plaits, like the skirt. A very broad band ef Mack velvet cut on the bias, edged the tiounee, and at the tdls' of this, and also at the heading of the flounce, a ruche of nutrow black lace; the body and sleeves also trimmed with at ruttier: The sleeve, pagoda, straight, and open, ornament 4 with a wide bow of black velvet. These bows are souietiMes lined with stiff net, which keeps them in form ; for the same reason, lace flounces are frequently lined wills crape or tulle. A blue figured taffetas. The body high at the back, and opened square in front, with braces trimmed with black lace and white blonde, which are laced together tens the chest, a gold braid is laid on for a heading to the Mee': Sleeves, open and pointed, a la Chinoise, trimmed with late and blonde. A dress of violet taffetas, with eleven flounces set on in flutes, with a black velvet as a heading. A Marie Antoinette corsage, in flat plaits. Sleeves to match. In preparing for the approaching winter season', our readers will be desirous to know a little of the fashion . for evening and ball dresses. They will find the follow ing dresses exceedingly elegant and effective : ! A white Chainbery gauze dress, with an under-skirt of white taffetas. It has a straight bouillone at the bottom of the skirt then two more bouillonnes waved at the edge, and at each festoon a bouquet of bachelor's buttons is placed. The body, which is low, has a drapery of white taffetas, crossed at the waist, and terminating in wide ends embroidered with gold. A bouquet of bachelor's buttons on each shoulder. A coronet of bachelor's buttons. Another dress is of white tulle illusion. Bouillonnes towards the bottom of the skirt, in horizontal lozenges. At the top of these are two skirts of tulle illusion, covered with a Mule of tulle, figured with gold, caught up at the side with a wide black velvet ribbon and a bouquet of gold wheat. The body has a berthe figured with gold, with Oriental sleeves. For coiffure, a kind of turban in tulle, worked gold, with black with velvet ribbon and gold wheat. LORD SEYMOUR AND "MOSES." (Prom the Plymouth Hail.) Our readers are aware that we have freely expressed our disapproval of English volunteering in support of Garibaldi. When a "Colonel" Peard engages in such a Quixotic enterprise it matters little: eccentric English men will always be abundant : and we may fairly pre sume that since England was a nation no war has occurred without a few Englishmen being engaged-on both sides. But, while we care little about the folly of " Garibaldi's Englishman,", we cannot without regret see the heir of an English dukedom in a like position. Lord Seymour, if he were not the son of the Duke of Somerset, would be a very insignificant young gentleman, who might do anything however foolish ; but the eldest son of a very haughty Whig duke, who is also a Cabinet Minister, cannot commit a folly of this sort without injury to the nation. WhPn Mr. Edwin Intn.es, M.P. and goes to Italy and writes home ridiculous letters—or i when Mr. Collier, also M.P. and Q.C., imitates the Marylebone muff, and declares that the Venetian police mistook Mrs. It. P.C. for Garibaldi—people both abroad and at home merely pity the animals in question. But noblesse oblige ; and the son of a duke, even though he call himself by a pseudonym, cannot with impunity curvet and bray after the fashion so delightful to a Collier cr a James. The illegal proceedings in which Lord Seymour has engaged have brought him into queer company. Our "information on this subject is obtained Wont Mr. Russell's Army and Navy Gazette. It seems that among the Volunteers who went out to help Garibaldi was one Captain Isaac. This person is a tailor as well as a rifle -man. No sooner did he obtain audience of Garibaldi, as bringing- J -4- despatches from England "—than be pre sented-tbe Italian hero with " a little bill for clothes !" Garibaldi kepthis temper and gave him an order on some body or other for the amount. Isaac however did not get the money ; for in the interim Captain Sarsfield, alias Lord Seymour, had made certain representations not to the credit of the sartorial gentleman with the Hebrew surname. Hence would have followed a duel but for timely interruption ; not between Sarsfield and Isaac, as one might expect, but between his lordship and one Captain Scott. The duel was prevented by the interfe re nce of C o l one l Peard, who too k a d vantage o f hi s supe riorrank to prohibit Lord Seymour's meeting Captain Scott, on the ground that the latter was not a gentle man, but a bill-discounter. This . is well enough; but the narrative goes on to state that Lord Seymour, though he would not fight Captain Scott, has thought fit to 'waylay him, and beat him with a stick ! For our own. part, we should prefer neither to exchange shots with a bill-discounter, nor to cudgel him. What is the moral of this story ? People about here know pretty well what " Colonel" Peard is. How he ever came to command a brigade is a question that must puzzle his acquaintances. However, he has attained notoriety : and we suppose he wanted nothing else. Young Lord Seymour is a feather-brained lad whom his father might have looked after a little better. Messrs. Lockyer and Latimer held him in hand as candidate for South Devon if Lord John Russell's ridiculous Reform (Bill had passed ! This is a rich sample of the sort of representative, your Whig-Radical likes to inflict upon us. These people, when it suits their purpose, will tell you that nobody should enter Parliament unless he is elderly and sagacious and acquainted with business : yet ichol as , I saac, and Co., would have been glad to return this aristocratic boy—and a very foolish boy, too. One of their own sons would have done just as well. The Post's Paris correspondent says that the Roman province of Velletri, of which Terracina is a part, has been occupied by the French troops at the desire of the Roman Government, and by virtue of an agreement between France and Sardinia. THE ' ARVELLOUS RING.—A letter from Paris says : " M A curiou s ring has been found in the neighbourhood of the Champs Elysees. It is described as of great value, and has been ornamented with a royal crown and the ciphers 'V. A.' in rubies and diamonis. It contains a stereoscope of most extraordinary minuteness ; the glasses are not more than an ordinary pin's head in diameter, and the tubes scarcely the size of very small crow quills. This marvellous apparatus contains, we are told, photographic p or t ra it s of the Prince Consort and the Prince of Wales, which to the naked eye are invisible, but by the aid Of the glasses already mentioned appear as large as the figures on a small visiting card. It is asserted that a box of jewellery addressed to the English Court from Paris a short time since was stolen, and the ring in question is supposed to have formed a, part of the contents," THE NEW CONSTITUTION FOR FRANCE- (From the Porcupine.) As our readers may naturally be expected to feel some' interest touching the nature of the new Constitution granted tv France, (we mean the last new Constitution,. that of the present week, not that of Monday fortnight,) we have taken some pains to procure from our diplomatic agent, M. Porc-epee, an exact copy of the genuine docu ment, published in the Mowiteur. We need scarcely suy, that that published in the London papers is, as iitsual, entirely incorrect, having been translated by Lord fohn RntselT. When we say, that our translation is from the arzomplished pen of our townsman, Mr. Alder man Parker, no. word need be added to speak its correct ness, precision, and eloquence :14sifing to confer upon France the inestimable. blessings of a' free Constitution., as enjoyed by England,. South Carolinv, Ancient Rome, the Isle of Man, and other great natiorei. we have issued the following decree : -- - Article I.—That the Senate and Corps _Lcgislatif shall almtally vote an address, in repij , to our speech at the openin'g of the Session ; the address to be prepared by our own' hand;. to be printed in the Itfoniteur before, being voted, , and to be adopted without any discussion, Article 2.—This address will be read in the Rreseneu of the Government Commissioners, who will give any explinatioAs on the interior or exterior policy at the. empire, more especially on the finances of the past an& the wars of the coming year which we may think convenient to make ptbiblic. It is expected that our consideration may not be abused by the asking of any questions; and, in order to prevent civil discord of this discription, we have requested, through our Minister of Police, that M. Jules Fevre will kindlY withdraw tea Cayenne. Article 3.—The legislative body are to be at liberty' to disease freely every question submitted for their con— sideration, excepting such as ref er to militar y , naval;. finwricial, social, legislative, and foreign topics. Our pleasure upon the latter subject will be made known to. the legislative body by our Government Commissioners,. Article 4.—Tho debates of every sitting are to be, reported in short-hand and published fully, after having undergone our imperial revision and correction, in the official journ a l. Article le number i ' cs--- .T secureof f oreediscussion we_ have tre ministersdm of int the chambers. In every division the vote o f eac h m i n i s t er is to be further recorded as three votes. Article 6.—Our Minister at the Court of St. James's to be M. Klotz Rowsell. Our Algerian Minister, M. Jules Gerard; Minister of Marine, M. Alexandre Dumas (Fill) ; Minister of Public Instruction, M. Paul de Kock ; Minister of Police, M. Mouchard ; Government Com missioners, Messrs. Gamin, Ventre-bleu, Zou-zou, Lowy garon Admiral of our Fleet, M. Jean Clare (le jeune).. Artick foreign journals are to be admitted! freely into Fiance, providing they contain leading articles in favour of our Imperial policy, and are oft great circulation and influence at home, such as the; _Morning Chronicle and the Treaty. This permissiony, however, does not extend to the Porcupine. "It is our Imperial hope that France will appreciate: the freedom we bestow, and understand that the confi— dence we manifest, and the liberty we confer, are alike. bright and precious as our Imperial eyes." [lt is thus. that Mr. Alderman Parker translates the someivhat, ambiguous metaphorical phrase "tout mon cal."] " Done at the Palace of the Tuileries, " NAPOLEON." strippinff Auttitignut.

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS,— Diseases of the Warm Climates. Liver complaints, general debility, gout, and other ailments to which the inhabitants of India and all eastern countries are liable, may always be quickly cured when these restorative remedies are at hand. When the constitution seems breaking up, the muscular and nervous system completely relaxed, the appetite gone, and the mind sinking into despondency and uespair, it is never too late, even at the eleventh hour, to restore 'the physical and mental powers to perfect health and vigour, if a fair trial be given to these admirable pills. They are like Medea's celebrated drug, Which renewed to old tEson, King of Thessaly, his youth and strength. They gently stimulate the too enfeebled vital organs. NEW INVENTION.—TUE NEW FOUNTAIN PEN.--4 greater annoyance than a bad steel pen can hardly be met with—the difficulty is to get a good one. Amongst the recent improve• ments the new "fountain pen," just introduced by Rudhali and Co., is the best we have ever seen. By a simple but elfee-t, tire contrivance the ink is retained in a fountain, by means of a second inverted barrel, above the writing nib, and this barrel can be taken out at any time. so the pen can be kept perfectly clean w thout any chance of being corroded. Another feature in this pen is, that one din in the ink will last for fiye minutes' quick writing. The pen itself is of the•finest description, and in merchants' offices, banks, and indeed in every place, it will be found to fill a want felt by every one u p to this time. We have tried this splendid pen, handed to us by Mr. E. T. Hall, South John-street, and can pronounce it perfect, and we are sure all who use it will give a fall verdict in its favour, CONSUMPTION, COUGH, ASTHMA, AND BRONCHITIS CURABLY, —" I believe that the preparation of Balsam-of Horehound and Aniseed (as prepared bMr. Martin, of 22, Copperae hill,'Lirerpool,l will prove y s nore value, in caws of bron chitis and incipient consumption, than any other remedy extant. It relieves the most irritating cough in a few minutes; and, although it contains no preparation of opium, it induces sound and rrfreshiny sleep, soothes the nervous system, and restores the healthy action of the lungs." Recommended above all other medicines by Sir Alexander Tralles—see Thomson's Materia Medico, page 175, vol. 2. The following is from Dr. Brett, the eminent chemist :—" I consider the balsam of hore hound • and aniseed, as prepared by Mr. Martin, an elegant and efficient cough remedy, and I fully agrc.c with sir Alexan der Tralles and Dr. Anthony Todd Thom-on, t hat, in conjunc tion with cod liver oil, it is an admirable remedy for con sumption and delicate constitutions." —R.
