BATHS OF HOMBUR(;, near Frankfort-on-
tlie•Maine —Summer Semiin 1866.—The Mineral Waters
of Homburg, as evidenced by the analysis of the celebrated Pro-
him Leh*. are stimulant, tonic, alterative, and aperient. They
areof admirable service in removing disorders of the stomach
and other intestines. They stiniubite these organs when the ab- •
datable! circulation is defective, assist the process of secretion,
and give a healthful regularity to the organion of nutrition and '
assimilation. They are powerful remedial agents in cases '
of enlargement of the liver, in affection of the spleen,
is hypochondria. jaundice, hemorrhoidal disease, and
antitiste constipation. In eases of gout, and all other affec-
tions produced by inefficiency of the digestive functions, the
amthappy results have been obtained from them. The efficacy
of the waters is more especially recognised by those who drink
Quo at their sourer . for then, the invigorating air of the
Mountains, the gaiety of the surrounding scene, and perfect
abstraction from the cares of the world, concur in assisting the
action of the medicinal beverage. The magnificent Kurbouse,
which. in the beauty of its architecture, the Judicious distribu-
Bee of its apartments, and the richness of its decorations, our-
pulses every other edifice of the kind on the banks of
the Rhine, contains a variety of spacious and splen-
didly decorated rams. a grand saloon for balls and concerts
a !verb dining loom where there is a table-d'bote Prim-
p*, twice a day. at 1 and at 5 o'clock, furnished by the cele-
brated (hevet id Paris, who is the lessee of the refreshments of
thavhole casino. The visitors will likewise find a large and corn-
autable resilingroom, well supplied with German, English,
Trench, Italian, suaniah, ituzsian, Polish, Swedish, Belgian, and
batch daily papers. Besides the above attractions, there are
also several conversation roots as well as a splendid coffee-
man with three hiiliiinl tables. To complete the charms of
losalwirg, this delichtful place, a troupe of Italian actors of the
highest talent, conducted by the celebrated maestro Orsini,
has been engaged to perform the choicest pieces of the
Malian repertory. hue services of the renowned prime-
donne Adelina Patti, Trebel'', the sisters Marehisio,
kale likewise been secured for this season. An excel-
lent orehestre, numbering forty distinguished musicians,
performs three times n tiny in the monitors at the Wells: In
the afternoon in the beautiful gardens of the Casino, and in the
timing in the grand Ball-room. The new railway has almost
brought Homburg luitlis to the outskirts of Frankfort. There
are twenty trains a day to and fro, the lest as late as 11 o'clock.

REMARKS.

Fine weather. with light southerly and westerly winds, prevail
on all our coasts this morning. Barometers have risen, and tem-
perature has increased on the east coasts of England and Scot-
land. Some rain fell yestenlay in the west of England and on the
east and west coast of Scotland.

THE MARRIAGE OF PRINCESS MARY.—Yesterday
the preparations for the approaching marriage of her Royal
Highness Princess Mary of Cambridge with Prince Teck
were commenced in the quiet suburban village of Kew, so
well known to the denizens of the great metropolis, and
workmen are now busily employed in erecting triumphal
arches across the road which il;vides the Green. All, too,
is chaos in Cambridge-cottage, where to-day, it is under-
stood, a grand dinner party and bail are to be given to
about 150 guests in honour of the occasion. The nuptial
ceremony, it is stated, will take place at half-past 12o'clock
on Tuesday afternoon. The royal pair are to be united by
the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of 'Win-
chester, assisted by the vicar of the parish, the Rev. R.
B. Byiun, and the Rev. P. W. Nett, curate of Kew. The
church, as many of our readers are aware, is an unpre-
tending-looking brick building, standing on the south side
of the Green, with its porticoed entrance facing the gate-
way of Cambridge-cottage. The exterior, over which the
ivy climbs in great luxuriance, is partly hidden by the
dense foliage of the lime, chesnut, and yew trees, which
surround the building. Inside the church itself there is
much to interest the stranger, there being several marble
tablets, among which are those erected to the memory of
Jeremiah Meyer,the miniature painter, and Francis Bauer,
botanical artist to King George 111., and also that of
Thomas Gainsborough, the painter. The ceiling is
arched, and supported on six pillars ; the royal gallery,
decorated in front with the imperial arms and escut-
cheons, is at the west end of the church. Soon
after 12 o'clock on Sunday night workmen will
commence clearing away the whole of the high
old-fashioned pews in the centre of the church, In
I order to leave the body of the building completely clear,
as all the room is required for the members of the Court
and those of the aristocracy who may be honoured with in-
vitations. Her Majesty the Queen, the Prince and Prin-
cess of Wales, and other members of the royal family,
will most likely be present. The Queen, it is expected,
will be seated in the gallery, while the other company will
occupy the body of the church, from the doorway of which
• covered and carpeted way will be erected under the super-
vision of Mr. Cripps, of Buckingham Palace, to the portico
• of Cambridge Cottage, whence the marriage procession will
emerge, the members of it walking to the church. There
are to be great rejoicings upon the green in the after-
noon. A dinner will be given to the poor and school-
children, while the Duke of Cambridge will provide a
military band and the parish another for the visitors. In
the evening there will be a grand display of fireworks
upon the green immediately opposite the entrance to Kew
Gardens.
THE CHINESE MISSION.—BIRMINGHAM, THURS-
DAY NIGHT. His Excellency the Chinese Commis.
sioner Jin and suite arrived here to-night from Oxford.
They were met at the station by the Mayor (Mr. Edwin
Yates) and members of the town council. Although his
worship had had only notice of the intended visit a few
hours previously, he entertained:the distinguished guests
at dinner at the Queen's Hotel, at which the members of
the magistracy, of the town council, and other bodies were
present. The reception which the mission received was
enthusiastic. Friday and Saturday are to be devoted to
visiting the principal manufactories in the town, and pro-
' bably some in the district.
SOCIETY FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF THE FINE
ARTS.—Last evening an exhibition of works of artistic
manufacture was held by this society at their rooms in
Conduit-street, which was contributed to by Messrs. Cope-
land, J. W. Benson, Mappin, Webb and
I Co. an
thed several
others, producing a very agreeable displa y.n course
of the evening Mr. Henry Ottley delivered • lecture on
the present state of street architecture, illustrating his re-
mtrks by some glaring examples in the metropolis ; after
which he made • few observations on the furnishing of
houses and decorative art generally. A discussion fol-
lowed.
FIRE IN DUBLIN.-(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
DUBLIN, Jim(' B.—Two houses in Westmoreland-etreet
were destroyed by fire last night. Six persons lost their
lives—the wife, daughters, and servant of Mr. Delaney,
merchant tailor.
