HOSPITAL FOR SICK CHILDREN.

The third annual general meeting of the friends of
this institution was held yesterday at the house, Great
Ormond•street, for the purpose of receiving the report, elec-
tion
of officers, and on other business; Joan LASOUCIIIIIRE,
• the treasurer, is the chair.
the Rev. Bir H. DI3III4IIILD, Bart , the chairman of
the committee, read the third annual report, which stated
that the committee felt gratified at the increased usefulness
of the institution, as would be seen from the following
statement—via., that the number of in.patienta had been,
in 1862, 143 ; in 1843, 190; and In the last year, 1854, 267 ;
making a total of 690 ; and that of out-patients, 1,240 bad
resolved the benefits of the institution in 1852 ; in 1853,
that number increased to 4,251; whilst during the last
year, 1864, them were no lees than 6,896, thus
making • total of 12,396. Thus, in throe years,
them were no fewer than 12,986 sick children
on the books, whilst in one week 702 were attended. These
figures showed • satisfactory state of things, considering the
recent origin of the hospital. There had been a large in-
crease in the number of patients; bat the committee re-
gretted that daring the last year the income fell short of the
expendiVare to • great extent; and although many valuable
legacies had been bequeathed to other institutions, yet the
Hospital for Sick Children had not been noticed. The com-
mittee then proceeded to thank the different clergymen by
whom sermons had been preached in aid of the funds; and
the report then went on to account for the increase in the
expenditure, by the inereaats in the number of patients, and
also the high price of provisions and other requisites
for the hospital. In conclusion, the report stated that
aye contributions received had not even amounted to what
might have been expected considering the objects of the
charity ; but still the committee could not expect to enjoy
that eztramdbary amount of prosperity as before, consider-
Mg the peenlier &maleness which have characterised the
past year., still, however, they trusted that sufficient sup-
port wield be reselyed to enable the committee to carry out
the object for whit& the institution was founded.
The Hon. Admiral W. Pastor moved the adoption of the
report
H. HAZWOOD HARWOOD, Esq., seconded the motion;
and observed that dooms vigorous measures were not taken
' to keep up the charity, it must, in a year or so, become
I bankrupt, and be therefore trusted that the receipts of this
the only charity of the kind in the kingdom would increase,
so that, instead of diminishing, the number of patients
might be considerably augmented. (Hear, bear.)
The motion was then put and carried ; and, after passing
a trots of thanks to the medical officers, some routine bust-
' arm wee transacted, and thanks to the chairman terminated
the meeting.

THE BALTIC FLEET.

01011 Ova OWN CORRISPONDINT.)
REVEL ROADS, Nov. S.
The appearance of the country around this has is
one night been subjected to a perfect transformation,
and from its autumnal hue has assumed the garb of
winter, and a thick coating of snow covers the
Wand of Nargen and the opposite shores of Revel,
presenting a scene similar to that witnessed by
some of us in the Arctic regions. Our blue jackets
have been engaged in the novel and exciting task of
clearing the deck of its coating of snow, the fall of
which having for a time rendered all exercise aide
out of the question.
The air is very cold, and heavy falls of snow have
continued during the day. We may in consequence
expect a speedy termination to our cruise, as it would
be madness to incur such rick as we now are exposed
to, without any adequate advantage to be derived from
it. It we deem it expedient to withdraw front these
waters, it is evident the more timid navigators of the
enemy's vessels will not venture out of their winter
quarters; and even if such a step were attempted, our
flying squadron, consisting of some of the finest
screw frigates in the world, would at any time be
a match for, if not superior to, any force the enemy
ma v have disposable at this season of the year.

SPAIN.

In the Cortes on the 6th inst. M. Areas asked the
Minister of Foreign Affairs if the relations of Spain
with kreiga powers were satidestory, and be re-
marked that it was strange that so many Spanish
ministers to freeign warts should be at present in
the capital. The Minister of Foreign Affairs replied
that the relations with all foreign powers, " Russia
excepted," wets of the most friendly character, aid
that the reason why, so many ministers to foreign
courts were is Madrid was simply and solely that
they had been summoned biome they IMO members
of the C,ortee, and because without them the number
of deputies would not be sufficient to enable laws
to be voted. The remark of the minister about
Russia excited a °amide:able seeestion. and the
Epoca says that the eoesegeireces of it may easily be
anticipated. Acorirdieg to a return annexed to the

DRAMA.

Lest night was revived the drams of " Vietorim,
or, PSI Sleep on It," nnginally produced at this theatre some
years Son, under the management of Mr. Yates. Viciorine,
we believe, is an adaptation, by Mr. Backstone, from a
French originaL It depict', through the medium of a
dream, the history of a youn r and beautiful woman is
bumble life, alio chases a career of splendid vice in pre-
ference to anspiag the honourable addresses of as holiest
artisan. Deserted by her titled paramour, Victoria. de-
mends into rqualid misery, becomes usmiated with escaped
felons, and finally, amend of a robbery of which she is
inseam', seeks refuge in suicide, by throwing herself into
tbe intent of the Seine. At this point in the drama the
mem chows to the humble chamber of Victoria., when
she is shown, as is the first act, when, balancing
between the two careers open to her, she &tee-
niest to "sleep on it." Waging from her dream,
Victoria. is thankful for the lama which it incieleatee,
and joyfully accepts the hand of an honourable lover,
although an numble one. Victoe.ise had an eatraordinary
run on it. first prodectios, when the Adelphi 'emptily is-
eluded Mr. and Mrs. Yates, Mrs. Fitswilliam, Mr. Buck
stone, J'hs Rave', sad 0. Smith; and although, perhaps,
the present est is scarcely so strong as the original, it is
nevertheless exceedingly well played, and bids fair to prove
a most attractive revival. Mn. Leigh Murray deserves
special mention for her very charming performing' of Via
brine—a performance which has certainly ashamed her
positioa with the Adelphi audience, who testified their
appreciation of it by plaudits loud and long. Mies Weolgar,
es her companion Elie., presented a mast agreeable com-
pound of arcn vivacity and pathos. Mr. Leigh Murray, as
the roué Alessadre, and Mr. Selby, as his sompaatioa
ruffian, Ce.ar COMMllkellpf, ware a most picturesque pair of
scoundrels, white Mr. Paul Bedford as Mr. Bossism, and

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.
THIS DAY.

The number of beasts is about the same as on' Friday last.
The average quality of the supply is not improved, conse-
quently the choicest kinds are not lower. Trade is heavy for
inferior kind., but a fair clearance is effected. Trade is slow
for sheep, and it is with difficulty that late p, ices are main-
tained for best qualities. Good lambs and calves are in
demand, at fully late rates. From Germany and Holt:did
there are 202 beasts, 1,780 sheep, 340 calves, and 94 pigs ;
400 beasts from the Northern and Midland; and 90 milt&
cows from the Rome Counties. _ . .

PIEDMONT.

The Piedmontese Go:ette announces that the King
of Naples has concluded a new contract for 30 years
with the Swiss regiments. In case the regiments be
disbanded before the expiration of that period, it I.
stipulated that the men shall receive pensions.
The Piemonte, ministerial paper, published at
Turin, prints the following :
" The Italian question is one which forces itself
upon Europe: it must find its place when the recorn-
position of Europe is discussed: it will do so, and no
human power can prevent it. Without indulging in
illusions, we have the confidence that the grand move-
ment of men and things which we behold to-day will
neither be sterile for Europe nor for Italy. But
until events have spoken it will be premature to enter
upon particular discussion, and to discourse as if the
congress which is to fix the destinies of Europe had
already met."

MR. GORDON CUMMING'S EXHIBITION.

Lest evening, Mr. Gordon Cumming, the lion-
heater—who has been • well-known lion himself for the last
few years, since he displayed the spoils of his adventurous
pastime to the curious public at hems—opened • new
dio►amia exhibition at his rooms in Piccadilly, which was
explained by himself in • lively and familiar style of nar
retie,. The views of the diorama, and the smaller pictures
shown upon an ewe!, have been admirably tad by
Messrs. Haghe, Philips, Leach, and Minium Weir ; and
some of the landscapes appeared to us remarkably perfect in
Small and affect, whatever may be thought of the his-
torical exactness of the grasps of men and •ai.
teals which thi various pictures represented. Mr.
Cumming's 111&1111t7 and address are simple and straight-
forward, and carry conviction of the substantial accuracy of
Lis interw•iog statements. He vindicated himselffrom the
aeeautlo• of wanton destructiveness, by observing that the

flesh of t)e anisaile which he killed, even of the toughest
old elephent, afforded 'expiable food to the hungry natives

evidence of the reality of his perilous achievements.

TRH CROPS.

We believe, from the accounts which daily reach
as, that in Yorkshire at but a fair ge yield may be
expected, especially is that most meential of all crops as
regards the people's food—wheat. Potatoes likewise eon-
t?iise healthy, sad promise unusual abundanee.—Lreds

- .
Mercesfy.
Sinai our last, frequent falls of rain ham prevented the
w►eat already cut from being garnered, but the last three
days having been dry, a good deal has been homed in ente-
rable condition, and as the weather promises to centime
fine, the apprehensions of the ferment about the sprouting
of the wheat will be in a measure dispelled, and harvest
work bids fair to make rapid progress. The hops still con-
tinue very promising ; they are now half grown upon the
bins, and promise a most abundant crop. The potato
dilates increases: Worcettegsre Chnniele.

THE MURDER IN KENT.—Up to list evening
neither of the suspected men had been arrested. Old Mrs.
Bagley, though still in a precarious state, has improved so
far so to be able to answer questions. The expectation that
she would be Ale to throw light upon the affair has proved
unfounded, as she is unable to afford any information on
the subject. It Is conjectured therefore that she must have
been stunned by a blow while asleep. Unless detected by
some of the Wien taken from the cottage, then will, it is
feared, be much difficulty in identifying the murderer,
should he bonneted.
THE MILITIA.—The new Militia Aot requires the
tows Nunn of every city and borough within a given time
to appoint two elite members to canter with two justices of
the smutty is which tbe said city or borough I. situate, to
apportion the sum (upon the beats of the poor-rate anus
meat) to be contribute! by the said city or borough towards
the espenditcre iocurred for providing storehouses for the
county militia. Singularly enough, however, the tows
eouneile are to have no metrol over the expenditure entered
into, which * left entirely in the bands of the county jus-
tices. The Norwich town council have appointed a Isom.
mince to tan steps to remedy, if possible, this untionstitn-
Bond eaosaly.

SUICIDE OP A MILITARY °MOBIL

On Wednesday an inquest was held at the Golden
Cross, Duncennon-street, Bt. Martin's ia-the-Fields, before
Charles St. Clair Bedford, Beg., coroner for Westminster,
on the body of Lieutenant Gilbert Pickering, aged 30.
Hr. Demoulain, of 41, Cravenatreet, stated that the
deceased had been lodging at his house for some weeks,
having been introduced by Lieutenant Scott. OA Satur-
day last he saw the deceased, when he appeared is perfect
health and spirits. Rome conversation took plain between
them, when witness mentioned the mount of his Mil, 261,
which the demand said should be paid on Headley. Wit-
NU did not see the dawned on Sunday. Oa Monday
wrung his attention was called by a gentleman, another
lodger, who said he had heard the report of a pistol in the
deceased's nom : be knocked violently at the door, and re-
ceiving no 'sewer, immediately burst it open, when he
found the deeemeestretched on the bed, in a pool of blood,
bat not deed. Dr. Hood afforded immediate assistance.

Miss Deneolain stated that she spoke to the demised on
the Sunday evening, when she let bun in. He appeared to
be in good spirits, and said he had been to Hew-gardens,
sad bad spent a delightful day.
Dr. Hood, of Upper Seymour-plaos, deposed that he was
visiting • patient on Monday, in Craven-street, whoa be
was informed that the deceased bad shot himself. Two
steel pistols were found lyiag by hie side. He saw at one*,
from the nature and extant of the wounds, that dm ease was
Moslem The demised, who WA ebet Massif in the sioatlf,
was insensible, and never rallied. He expired the ens
night, a few minutes after nine. The dammed appeared to
have been smoking, as a pipe unentiognished was lying near

By a huer—lie had no doubt the wounds were the canes
of death. Should think the deemed was labouring under
temporary Insanity at the time. The idea of not being able
to meet kb eagsgentent to pay the rent of his lodgings
might have been the immediate caw. The deneased bad
been reading. The pegs was turned down. It bore no
»femme to Maids.
The Onremetos dhow produced three letter which had
been head, ens of which was addressed to Mesas. Cock-
burn, his &getter, to the follow's' effect :

mats. When you receive this, I shall be no more. Do not
fail, or the eternal Gorses of • dying ma light ea yea.—

The thwarter thought, after the evidence they bad beard,
they would base lade difficulty in coming to • conclusion
that the deemed destroyed himself whilst laming under
temporary insasity ; but if they thought otherwise, be
should require farther evident.' of the state oldie deceased's

THE WHITE SEA.

The following is a report, dared Aug. 8, from
Admiral Khroustcheff, military governor of Arch-
angel:
"At the time the attack was made on the
village of Msgr., six peasants received the assailant
on the shore with a volley of musketry, and for four
hours prevented his landing and seizing some small
vessels moored in the vicinity. The enemy at lut
penetrated into the village, where he set on fire three
houses, two bathing houses, two sheds, and also
several ships and barques at anchor hard by ; then re•
turning to his steamer, he shattered the windows of
the houses that had escaped the fire, and carried off
all ha could.

"On the morning of August 3 an English steamer
with two masts came to anchor at 200 sagenea from
the village of Suzma, and after firing nine cannon
shots at it, sent against it three boats full of armed
men. Profiting by the superiority of numbers, the
enemy occupied the village, broke with violence into
the church, where he seized the holy gospels, several
images, and smashed the holy doors of the altar.
From the houses of the peasants he carried off some
effects, as likewise the whole of their smaller live
stock and poultry. In the house of the communal
administration two images were carried off and cut
to pieces.
"On the 4th of August, when the morning mist had
oleared up, signal was made from the Mondug light-
house of there being a French three-masted steamer
near the Nikotekaia spit, to the north of the iron
gates. This steamer having cast anchor sent a boat
to the spit, the object being, by what appeared after-
wards, to get water from the wells that are there.

On the first alarm the men of the military
detachment cantoned in the neighbourhood under
the command of Sub-Lieutenant Kovetsky, of the 2nd
battalion of the city of Arcban.;el, assembled, and
when the enemy approached the iron gates by Oa
Nikotskaia spit, our chain compelled him by a few
shots to regain his steamer in all haste. Then he
despatched four boats, but when these saw that tier
chain was receiving a reinforcement, directed by the
Naval Commander Ogilvie, they withdrew. After
that the steamer fired shot and shell for two hour;
but without doing us any harm.
" At eight in the evening a boat of the enemy
approached the Nikotskaia spit ; the men who were
in it landed and set fire to the remains of the Nikolaky
wooden tower and to three fishermen's huts. Th,
next day, about noon, the steamer made for the
offing*"
