Aft. PZAPOVT TO TOP PPPLIC.—If. George Peabody,
intending soon to leare for England, deems it &duty doe
to himself to inform an thou who, daring his 'Rd of
ten months in his native country, hays written to hint
asking loans of money, donations to literary institutions,
sebsoriptions to churches, pablie charities, or assistance

communications has rendered it impossible for him to
read or answer, or even to open them in person. The
latter duty has, therefore, been assigned confidentially
to others. And as many of the writers have requested
that their applications should be kept morel, Mr. Pea-
body would state that be ha. this day caused these
letters, amounting to needy 4,000, to be burned in his

observed. M. Nelaton opened the abecees—the And
time under chloroform—but it was allowed to close
prematurely, and the young Prince had to undergo •
second operation, this time without chloroform. M.
Nilaton is criticised a little severely in the correspon-
