ROYAL HOSPITAL FOR INCURABLES.

The anniversary festival of this institution wan
celebrated last evening under the presidency of Lord Due-
VIEW, who numbered amongst his immediate supporters
Gen. Lawrence, Capt. Charles Rowley, Gen. Hill, Sir C.
Rowley, the Rey. Mr. Crichton, the Rev. J. W. Aveling,
tc. The recent custom of istroduciog ladies amongst the
guests was honoured on the present occasion, and the com-
pany was altogether select, though not quite so numerous as
so valuable a charity deserved. The merit. of this institu-
tion and its claims to public rapport have often been pointed
out ; but the eloquence with which the chairman proposed
the toast of the evening, " Prosperity to the Hospital
for Incurable.," presented new features of interest. Hie
lordship alluded in most feeling terms to the noble
character of the institution, and observed that a class of
human beings to whom even hope was denied were entitled
to the sympathy and consideration of all clams. Trial.
and sorrow, and suffering, were the inheritance of mankind,
but it was happily ordained that in many eases the afflicted
were relieved from their calamities, whereas the unfortu-
nate creatures who received the bounty of this asylum bad
no prospect before them but the grave. Such an iostita-
Moe, therefore, presented a more than usual claim to the
benevolence of the public, and his own experience—pined
from a visit he had paid to the building—had taught him
that every pains was taken to ensure the prosperity and
stability of the charity.
The last report presented by the institution showed that
the number of inmates amounted to 90, whilst there wen
611 out patients receiving 201. a year each, and the financial
statement proved that the income for the year 1861 ex-
oeeded that of the previous year by more than 2,000/. The
general statistics gave ample warranty for the belief not
only that the institution was deserving of the warmest sup-
port, but that it continued to receive increased marka of
public favour.
The eloquent appeal of Lord Dufferin and the facie put
forth in the statistics were so far snoxesf ul is their effect,
that the subscription list amounted to nearly 2,0001., includ-
ing a fund intended for building purposes.
The musical arrangements of the evening IMO under the
direction of Mr. R. G. Wesley, whose exertions derived
great assistance from the superior singing of Mr. Weiss,
who generally demands a more enlarged area for the exer-
cise of his fine voice than is to be found cm these festive
occasions.
Mr. Harker was the toastmaster.

time, and 9,700 were entirely out of work ; and this number
would shortly be increased to 10,000 through the stoppage
of other mills, and as each person might be estimated to
have one person looking to him for support 20,000 would

AUSTRIA.

Austria seems to have resolved upon a material
reduction of her army. The Military Gazette of
Vienna states that the effective strength is about to
be diminished by 75,000 men ; and in private cor-
respondence from Vienna it is declared that the
imperial cabinet has consented to the reduction of
8,000,000 florins proposed by the finance commission
of the Reichsrath in the war budget presented by
the government for the current year. The same
commission has passed two motions. By the
first it declares that the chamber should call upon
the government to settle Italian affairs definitively
in such a manner that it will be able to dispense
with the employment of a numerous army in
Venetia ; by the second it proposes that the vote
demanded for the Modenese corps should be
granted only for the present year, calling upon the
government to put an end to this abnormal state of
things as soon as possible.

ITALY.

A letter from Rome of May 24 says

The military authorities would do well to assure them-
selves of the identity of individuals who now come here in
the garb of priests. The other day two thieves in priests'
clothing came to pay a morning visit to a Spaniah bishop.
lodged at the Hotel Poniatowski, and, being left alone in
the sittintroom while the prelate was dressing, they laid
hands upon his episcopal crozier, gold chain, and two gold
rings, ornamented with precious atones, and got clear a
with their plunder.
A Turin letter says :

The Chamber is on the eve of meeting. Nearly all the
deputies have already arrived. The first sittings will be
devoted to explanations of recent events. An immense
majority will support the government ; and this will be
the conclusion of a crisis which will have served to demon-
strate that order rests in Italy on more solid foundations
than was generally believed.

ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH COMPANIES ALTR.

Colonel W. PATEN asked the President of the Board
of Trade whether it was the intention of the government to
introduce any measure during the present session for regu-
lating the construction of lines of electric telegraph on
public roads and lands adjoining thereto, and whether care
had been taken to insert in all private Dills having this object
clauses rendering electric telegraph companies liable to
future general legislation' He also asked, whether, in the
pieta of parliament which had been passed in former sessions,
clauses had been inserted rendering existing companies
liable to future general legislation?
Mr. M. °MON said, with regard to the last question
which his hon, friend had put, as to whether companies
which had obtained acts of parliament to construct electric
telegraphs were at any time subject to future legislation, be
believed that none of the acts contained such a clause.
&me of them, be thought about one-half, had got a clause
' which gave to parliament a power of interference at the end
of ten years. He bad a copy of the clause, which stated !
that "at any time after the expiration of ten years from
the passing of this act the regulations of the company with
regard to the transmission of messages and the opening of
streets shall be subject to the revision of parliament, and
parliament shall then require and enforce the adoption and
performance by the companies of such modified or other re-
gulations in the matters aforesaid as shall be deemed neces-
sary for the protection and convenience of the public."
There was no clause as to general legislation by parliament,
but he purposed communicating with the chairman of ways
and means, and suggesting to him the propriety of
inserting such a clause in any bill now before parlia-
ment. With regard to the first part of the question,
as to whether it was the intention of government to
introduce any measure during the present session for regu-
lating the construction of lines of electric telegraph on pub-
lic made and land adjoining thereto, the subject was under
consideration, but it was a matter of considerable difiiculty,
and he could not undertake as at present advised to intro-
duce any bill on the subject this sago%

CLEVER CAPTURE OP RULDLARE.—rat PLUNDER OP A
mwsusa's PREVENTED.
A rough-looking fellow, who lad night refused his name
and ',WNW, but who now gave the name of Bader,
and Jails Marna, who gave the address, No. 6, Spited-
'treat, French polisher, were brought up charged with
having housebreaking implements in their posiesuon, with
intent to commit • felony.
i
Sergeant White, 16 1), said—Shortly after 11 last night
I was n Welbeckstreet, when I eaw the two prisoners at
the corner of Henrietta-street and Welbeek-street. Know-
ing Baker I watched them for 15 minutes, when Baker left
the other prisoner, and went to • jeweller's shop close by.
After looking about he rejoined Morris. I got
aseittanoe and went and captured the prisoners. I
told Baker I knew him as being suspected,
and asked him what they were doing. Neither of them an-
swered. Some little while after, Baker said he came with
the other man to meet a young woman. I asked them her
name and where she lived. This they declined to
tell. I then took them to the station and
charged them with being suspected chant-toe.
On searching Baker, I found in his coat pocket
a highly-finished centre bit, so improved upon the old styles
that in a very few seconds it would cut a piece out of a
very stout door, sheet iron as well, in circumference
about 10 or 11 inches, thus enabling a man to get his band
in to unbolt, or unlock, or unchain any door. In another
coat pocket was found • stout iron hook and line.
In his trousers pocket was a neatly-made " jemmy," •
whistle, Inciter matches, and silver toothpick. It might
be important to tell your worship that Baker had • bag of
biscuits in his pocket, the biscuits being marked with the
name of "Simpson." On Morris I also found some bis-
cuits marked with the same name.
Mr. Mansfield—l think I have seen Baker here before.
White—He was in custody here before in connexion with
a servant girl for a robbery of plate am! wearing apparel.
There was also found on Baker • Bramah key for opening
street doors.

Mr. Mansfield—Did they make any reply to the charge
when you read it over to them!

White—No, sir. _
Mr. Mansfield—Do you know where they were going to
work

*bite—l believe they intended to pay a visit to the
jeweller's shop opposite where they were standing. There
has been one attempt there already, and the rope found
upon them would exactly suit the drop from the skylight
into the back shop.
Morris said be knew nothing of the other prisoner, who
only came to ask him the way to Bond-street.
Mr. Mansfield remanded them both for a week, to have
inquiries made about tbeir anteoedenta.

RUSSIA.

The following curious document, translated from
the Russian, affords an illustration of the moral
state of the Russian army. It is a sentence re•
contly passed by the Governor of the Caucasus,
and approved of by the Emperor :
A criminal inquiry having been instituted against several
of icers and privates of the let Georgian regiment of in-
fantry, the following have been found guilty, and con-
damned to the punishments hereinafter stated :
1. Capt. Arualichwaroff (a Russian prince), guilty of
having, for the sake of obtaining promotion, sent in a false
report of an engagement alleged to have been fought by
his troops against the Lesghian mountaineers, in which it
was stated that :e cartridges bad been fired on his side,
two men killed, and a standard of the enemy taken. The
standard, as well as a hand reported to have been cut off
from one of the native mountaineers, was sent in to serve
ea further corroboration ; but, as appeared in the inquiry,
the former was a spurious imitation of a Losghian flag,
I while the hand belonged to a man who had been murdered
by a sergeant of the regiment. The same captain was
found guilty of having falsely reported the desertion of the
murdered man, as also of seducing the soldiers under his
command to corroborate his statements by false evidence.
2. Sergeant Mikeberidse (an Armenian nobleman),
guilty of having, at the instigation of Captain Prince Arne-
hchwaroff, murdered a private of the regiment, whose hand
wee subsequently sent in as a Leeghian trophy; guilty of
having assisted in making the standard ; guilty of corrobo-
rating, by false evidence, the mendacious report of his cap-
tain respecting au engagement. The privates Prince
Pavlenoff (Russian), Matehavadriani (Georgian nobleman),
Logidsa (Armenian nobleman), Qwiti Shwili (Tartar noble-
man), guilty of not announcing the murder of the militia-
man, at which they were present; guilty of corroborating
I the mendacious report of their captain respecting an engage.

THE MIDDLE LEVEL DELUGE.

LI NN, FRIDAY NIGHT.

To-day has been a time of great anxiety ; the
tides have rushed up the cut with terrific forte, threatening
to carry away every obstacle, except those of Leviathan
strength, which might oppose them. The natural conse-
quence is that the water has risen to a higher altitude on
the tens than it had before obtained. Fortunately the
venous efforts of credging the beaks, and other preventive
measures hays prevented any greet extension of the area of
inundated land. Upon to-momm morning's tide depends the
safety of the fens that are not at present inundated. The
bole in the End Bank was not filled up to-day when we Wit
nor was any attention being paid to puddling the banks, an
operation the neceesity of which was felt on all bands. It
is feared that the present heavy raiu which has been falling
for hours will help to swell the main body of water on the
land, and render more likely an extension of its bulk and
area. The framework of the cofferdam is expected to be
completed on Saturday night, by which time fifty-two
piles of • length of fifty-three feet each will have been
driven'to • depth of twenty feet into the earth. To accom.
plish this about ten engines have been used, and it has
taken seven days to do it, which, it will be observed, is not
• pile per engine per day. All these piles are girded to.,
gather by iron bolts, fixed at the bed of the river by an
expert diver from Portland and Spithead, and
similar stays at the surface of the water. The
piles Sr. seven feet apart, and in the grooves
are to be fixed panels of wood eight inches thick, cased with
an indict sheet iron. This work is expected to be com-
menced to-morrow, and the centre is to be filled up with
chinch and puddle. It is intended to make the coffer-dam •
solid piece of work, and not to have &sluice through it, as
has been stated before. The Weil which it is intended to
adopt by the engineers is to lift the water over the coffer.
dam (which will be made as strong as possible) by means of
powerful machinery, which is shortly to be erected. Fifty
thousand sucks of earth have been thrown into the river, and
12,000 more have arrived for the same purpose. We be-
lieve it is proposed to strengthen the coffer-dam by laying a
quantity of lunch and earth et the foot of the piles.
The land that is under water was let at about 3/. an saw.

his some property under water, has larva more than 90
