On Friday last the officers of the Italian navy
at Venice gave a splendid dinner at Danieli's Hotel to
Lord Clarence Paget and the officers of the English fleet.
Ninety sat down to dinner. Adjutant-General Clavisana
proposed " The health of the Queen, People, and Navy
of England," to which Lord Clarence Paget replied in
the following terms :—" Our arrival in these waters has
been for me one of the happiest events, in consequence
of the truly princely way in which we have been received
by our hosts. Our government in sending us out for our
cruise said, 'ln Italy go wherever you like, because Italy
is our friend ;' and we have received the confirmation of
this truth, because ever. where we have met with a truly
brotherly reception." After dinner all the English dB-
, cell; were conducted in gondolas, expressly decked out
and illuminated, along the Grand Canal, bands of music
playing serenades in their honour. This festive serenade
was prolonged until after midnight.
The occupation of Alaska, or Russian America,
by the United State, has speedily been followed by re-
ports of rich gold discoveries. A party of explorers
started some time back front the State of Oregon for the
Skena River, in Alaska, and were subsequently stated to
have been lost in a schooner in Queen Charlotte's Sound ;
but the American consul at Victoria, ♦ancouver's Island,
now announces their safety, and adds that they are
alleged to have found a rich gold field on the Toque
River, where they were picking up the metal in lumps:
also, that the report was believed in Sitka, and that every
available water craft was being brought into requisition to
convey adventurers to the spot.
We rend in Galignani :—" Mr. Wilkie Collins
writes to protest against the dramatised version of the
'Woman in White' announced at the GaletE ; be denies
having given his authorisation, and threatens prosecutions
and the utmost penalty of the law against that theatre.
Crisafulli, the translator, returns the fire by declaring
that he holds in his possession Mr. Collins' penniseion."
♦ letter from Fusignano, in the Gazette del
Emilia, dates that a wealthy landowner named Angelo
Sinigaglia was captured a few days back by brigands, and

A monument erected at Rapperewyle, on the
border of the Lake of Zurich, to commemorate the drug's

Count Ladislas Plater writes :—" This international
solemnity will be dignified by the presence of the nota-
bilities of various countries, and everything leads us to
hope that it will contribute to secure fresh sympathies to
the Polish cause."

The thousandth anniversary of the foundation
of the kingdom of Hungary is approaching, and people
are discussing the way in which the memory of so rare an
event in the political history of Europe ought to be per-

OUR PARIS LETTER.

(FlOlll 001 OWN 00111INPONDONT3
PARIS, WNDWNIDAY Evmmu

The wearisome session, the longest on record
Dee the coup d'etat, broke up yesterday. The last
set was the voting of the loan after a pro formi
criticism of it by M. (larnior Pages, who says,
truly enough no doubt, that the temporary relief
which it gives to the floating debt will only be an
encouragement to go on in a course of extrava-
gance, and a short formal apology for it by M.
Magno. Not a word was said either by M.
Magne, M. Schneider, or M. Rouhor of a charac-
ter to dispol tho apprehensions of war which
now again cause great anxiety. M. Schneider
generally makes a speech to his colleagues before
dismissing them to their homes, but ou this occa-
sion ho said nothing, and the inforonoo drawn from
his silence is that the general elections may very
likely take plane this year. The usual cries of
" Vivo l'Emperour" are recordod in the official
analytical report, which does not, however, men-
tion an important variation of them reported in
the Monite•ur. M. Paul Botionont oriod " Vivo
la Libertk!" M. Eugene Pellotan " Vivo Ia
nation !" and then M. Beim on to' exclaim,•)
" Vivo la nation, which elected the Em-
peror!" These erica must bo taken in con-
nexion with a sort of exchango of dofiances which
took place two days ago between M. Picard end
M. Itouher. The member for Paris said in a
marked mariner that when governments forget
their origin they ran tho risk of downfall. M.
Rouher replied sharply, " Those are your words
now, but if over you attempt to act upon them
we shall put you down." There is much fire
smouldering under this smoke.
M. Henri Rochefort, whose prosecution for re-
fusing to insert the government communique ; is,
we art told, to be hurried on, wrote, in 1819, when
a student of sixteen in the 'Kongo Lyceum, an ode
to Biirunger of very great merit, which was
acknowledged by the poet in the following charm-
ing letter, now for the first time made public :

To the Lys.::en Rochefort,—l am under great obligations
to your friends, monsieur, for having suggested that you
should send your charming ode to me. You certainly
owed me a copy :ince I was so fortunate as to inspire your
muse. I- it tiue that you are only sixteen When I re-
read your ver•cs I cannot help asking myself
and on this wipstion—are you but sixteen
Ch! if I. at that age, had composed such well-turned
iottie qrol hcs, I should have fancied that a brilliant
destiny was before me. It is true that you lyeeene are
forced in • hothouse, whereas I, at sixteen, did not know
how to spell. sow, remembering all the means that have
been taken to develop your faculties precociously, do not,
my dear child, allow yourself to be too vain of a happy
dame and the praises of an old rhymester, who may bo
somewhat blinded perhaps by your incense. Beau niite,
vraimeut, de toucher use rieilktrd que len Atte. But
this old man has yet mind and reason enough,
and • heart warm enough to respond to the
impulses of generous youth, and from the bottom
of his heart be begs you to receive his thanks.
Stick to your themes and versions for a long
while yet, and believe me, my dear young friend, yours
very truly BERANOEI2.
Nosy, December '2O, 1849.

Thus one of the first effects of the communique
and prosecution has been to draw forth this certi-
ficate of Beranger to the genius of Henri Roche-
fort, now the most popular man in Paris.
Although it is thought certain that the loan will
be brought out on August 8, the Rento was toler-
ably firm and rose for account 7ic., closing at 80fr.
921 e. Italian fell 2.5 c.; Mobilier rose 2fr. We.

EXTRAORDINARY FATALITY FROM

SUNSTROKE.

The accounts given by the New York papers
with reference to the effects of the hot weather there, read
like the story of some terrible epidemic. It is described
as having been, up to the middle of July, one long siege,
and its sad effects have been witnessed in the unprece-
dented number of victims whose deaths had been recorded
during the previous ten days ; but it had not been
accompanied by any epidemic, and, excepting the
mortality and suffering immediately resulting from
the heat, the public health had been good. At
Richmond, on the 16th inst., the thermometer stood at
107 degrees in the shade, and the heat was so great in
Libby prison that the military commander removed the
prisoners to the posts whence they were sent. At Wi-
mington the thermometer ranged from 97 to 101
degrees. At Baltimore there were fifteen cases
of sunstroke in one day, three of which were
fatal, and on the same day, in the same city,
the destruction of no less than fifty head of cattle was
attributable to the same cause. At Newark, N.J.,
thirteen persons died from the heat on the 15th and 16th.
At Trenton there were four, and about the same number
in the country townships; and at Philadelphia thirteen
deaths occurred between midnight and noon on the 16th ;
while at Rochester, in thirty-six hours, there were
twenty-one cases of prostration, of which six were
fatal.

The list of casualties in the Yew York Tines of the 17th
looks like a battle roll, and yet it is prefaced with the re-
mark that "the reports of mortality resulting from the
heat yesterday show a large falling off from the preceding
days, and there is an encouraging prospect of more mode-
rate weather in the future." As a sample of the an-
nouncements under the headings of " The Dead," and
"The Prostrated," we give the following :—" Mr. Bentz,
of the firm of H. and M. Bentz, was prostrated on the corner
of Eighth-street and Maodougal, and died in a few min utes.
Unknown man, prostrated at One Hundred and Thirty-
third-street and ,Eighth-avenue, died on the way to
Bellevue Hospital. Remains at Morgue. Mary Ann
Kelly, of No. 214 k, Mulbetri-street, died on the way to
Bellevue Hospital. Remains at the Morgue. Alexander
Turner, aged 60, of Williamsburg, found insensible at the
corner of Canal and Watts streets. Taken to New York
Hospital. Unknown man, found at Tenth-avenue and
Thirty-fourth-street suffering from the heat. Taken to
Mount Sinai Hospital. Officer Abraham Storms, of the
Broadway Squad, was prostrated while on poet at the
corner of Fourteenth-street and Broadway. He was
taken to Police Head-quarters and attended by Dr. Pooler.
Three of the employfs of the Brooklyn and Neirtown
Railroad were prostrated upon De Kalb-avenue Wednes-
dayafternoon. One conductor, it is feared, will not recover.
Councilman Jeremiah O'Brien was soddenly seized with
illness at his residence, lie. 73, Oliver-street, when medical
aid was summoned and the patio* pronounced out of
danger. An unknown man was picked up in an insensible
condition, yesterday afternoon, on the corner of Ninth-
avenue and Twentieth-street, and sent to Mount Sinai
Hospital." The "unknown," indeed, seem to have pre-
dominated, and the sufferers were of various nationalities.

A letter from Wellington, New Zealand, says :
—" The introduction of salmon ova has been successfully
accomplished, some of the Ssh by the Celestial Queen
having just been h►tched in the province of Otago.
Eleven boxes from the same vessel were forwarded to
Canterbury, but it is feared that none would germinate.
It is yet doubtful whether the rivers of the North Island
are cold enough for salmon, so that the experiments of
acclimatisation are confined at present to the south. The
success of the Celestial Queen's importation is in great
measure owing to tie care and interest which Mr. Frank
Bnckland bestowed in England on its preparation and
packing. Unfortunately, the ship made a longer passage
than was anticipated, or the result would have been still
more satisfactory."
The Panama Star states that there are iO,OOO
acres of waste lands in Jamaica, and the government is
about to take possession of them, and encourage extensive
immigration.
The subject has been mooted in Austral's of
abandoning the mail route to Panama when the Pacific
railroad is completed, and establishing a mail steam packet
communication with San Francisco. The latter city is 700
miles nearer New Zealand than Panama is, and Tahiti is
on the route between New Zealand and California.

It is stated from Liverpool that the liquidators
of the Royal Bank have decided to make further calla of
64. and ba on the small and large Iberia respectively.
