THE MOORS.

For many years we do not recollect such a fine ap-
pearance of game at this early season of the year. The
grouse are both numerous and strong on the wing, and
should other 14 days of good weather continue the
young will be able to take care of themselves ; and
those southern friends who may visit us this season may
depend on good sport in all districts of the county, from
Thurso to Ord.—North British Daily Mail.
Is it true that disease is among the grouse this season ?
Have the birds bred well or not this year ? Will the
young broods be strong on the 12th of August ? These
are questions we have heard asked so often that we
propose answering them, for the information of a large
number of gentlemen who annually throw off the dust
of official life for a time on the heath clad mountains of
Scotland. We are enabled to answer the more readily
from a great number of reports which have been kindly
brought under our notice, from gamekeepers and others
whose business it is about this period to examine the
state of the young coveys. The first question, as to
the prevalence of disease, is easily disposed of. The
tapeworm scourge, which about every seventh year
decimates the grouse, is not the disease of this
year. Wherever dead birds Lave been found the
cause has been owing to their_ feeding too
freely on the frost-bitten heather—thus filling their
crops with food as indigestible as rotten wood. Since
the spring of 1838 no frosts have occurred to cause such
destruction to the heath, whiny, and brooms as last
spring ; consequently, wherever the heather was not
covered with snow, it perished as effectually as if burned.
Regarding the second question there is generally but one
opinion, viz., that the number of eggs in the nest have
been fewer than usual, and that young broods now mus-
ter from five to seven out of every nest. On the lower
grounds they will be proportionally more plentiful than
on the high grounds, as the snow remaining long on the
higher grounds prevented the birds nesting there. But
many of those best versed in the habits of grouse
maintain that before the shooting season many
broods will find their way to the mountain tops. Of
the third point, which regards the prospect of sport in
the ensuing season, we can assure sportsmen, as the re-
sult of the extended inquiries, that their sport will be
equal to the average of seasons. All who were on the
northern hills last year are aware that from the earliness
and wildness of the birds nothing like the quantities
were bagged that ought to have been, thus leaving
more than the usual breeding stock. From this
we infer that there will be few di,iappointments.
Black tails will be plentiful enough on the
12th day of August, and if the sportsman
now and then encounters a brood of cheepers ho has
only to take his gun from his shoulder, and, like a true
sportsman, wait till such broods can fly, as he knows
grouse do fly when full grown.—lnver%ess Courier.

LORD RAGLAN.

The resolutions agreed to yesterday in committee of
the whole house for granting a pension of 1,0001. a-year
to Lady Raglan, and 2,0001. a-year to the present Lord
Raglan, were reported. The resolutions were adopted,
and leave was given to bring in a bill founded on them.
On the motion of Mr. CRAUFURD,
The Truck Act Amendment Bill, which stood for
second reading, was, owing to the lateness of the session,
withdrawn.

AUSTRIA.

" The total effective of the Austrian army on the
Ist January of this year was," says a letter from
Vienna of the 30th ult., " according to official re-
turns 553,902 men, 77,540 horses, and 1,148 guns."
A Vienna letter of the 30th ult. says :—" M. de
Bruck, on the demand of the Emperor, has made
a report on the savings which may be made in the
budget. It is said that he is drawing up a very ex-
tensive financial plan. Count Fiquelmont, who has
been residing at Vienna for some time past, will
shortly proceed to Karlsbad, where a sort of petty
congress of diplomatists and cfficers of the Russian
.party is to be held."
A letter from Vienna of the 30th ult., in the
German Journal of Frankfort, says—" The last
letters from the Crimea speak of the probability of
an expedition of the fleets against Odessa—an im-
portant squadron was, in fact, already preparing to
quit the allied fleets before Sebastopol, and troops
estimated at 30,000 men had embarked in it. The
besieging army had not, however, been inconve-
nienced by their departure, as it had received re-
inforcements. According to the statement of
deserters, the losses of the Russians in the affair of
the 18th were enormous, and the garrison contem-
plated a renewal of the attack with terror."

COMMERCIAL CIRCULARS.

Much inconvenience and dissatisfaction has been
created among the principal export houses of the City
by a sudden announcement from the Post-office that the
advantage hitherto enjoyed of transmitting commercial
circulars by post under the newspaper stamp law is with-
drawn. Annexed is a copy of a communication which
has, in consequence, been addressed to that depart.
ment

"Lime-street, July 2.
"Sir,—ln Compliance with your advice, that we shoald
put on paper the reasons which exist for a continuance of
the privilege which has been so long conceded by the Go-
vernment to Price Currents' and ` Circulars,' of passing
to the colonies and foreign parts by means of the newspaper
stamp, wo beg to submit to you our belief that, instead of
injuring the revenue of the Post•office—which must be the
reason for the obstruction—they increase it.
"These `Price Currents' are entirely open, never con-
taining an allusion to any transaction between the parties ;
not a word is ever written in or on them but the address.
They give general information of the position and prices of
the various articles to which they refer, producing orders
for goods, and consequently insuring postal communica-
tion, which but for thorn would be far less frequent.
"We beg also to state that our Price Currents' and
Circulars' are literally newspapers, quite as much as is
the city article in the Times. They do not, it is true, often
contain political news, yet it would be easy to show that
they have done good service to the cause of free trade, by
their exhibiting its principles during the struggle to obtain
it, and that they are still advocating its advantages ; but
they contain ' news ' to the mercantile and commercial
world, of the variations in value, the excess or diminution
of the imports to which they relate, and the general aspect
of trade, which to their readers are news of perhaps more
importance than the collision of armies ; and it is not too
much to say that to these 'Price Currents' and ` Circulars,'
extended as has been their circulation, the nation is in a
considerable degree indebted for that extraordinary rapid
result of free trade seen in the magnitude of our exports.
"We beg to add that the whole of the merchants and
brokers in the neighbourhood of Mincing-lane were much
surprised at the decision of the Post-office on this subject,
as it is a retrogradation which a free-trade Government
could never think of enacting, and which they believe must
have been adopted without investigating all its bearings.
" Begging, therefore, a reconsideration of the subject,
we are, sir, your obedient servants,
" T. J. AND T. POWELL.
" To Frederick Hill, Esq."

AUSTRIA.

" The total effective of the Austrian army on the
Ist January of this year was," says a letter from
Vienna of the 30th ult., " according to official re-
turns 553,902 men, 77,540 horses, and 1,148 guns."
A Vienna letter of the 30th ult. says :—" M. de

a report on the savings which may be made in the
budget. It is said that he is drawing up a very ex-
tensive financial plan. Count Fiquelmont, who has
been residing at Vienna for some time past, will
shortly proceed to Karlsbad, where a sort of petty
congress of diplomatists and officers of the Russian
party is to be held."

A-letter from Vienna of the 30th ult., in the
German Journal of Frankfort, says—" The last

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-(THIS DAY.)

The SPEAKER took the chair shortly after 12 o'clock.
The Lords' amendments to the following bills were
considered and agreed to :—Carmarthen and Cardigan
Railway ; Grand Surrey Canal (No. 2) ; Manchester,
Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway (Capital) ; Stock-
port, Disley, and Whaley Bridge Railway ; Sunderland
Dock ; Weymouth. Water.
The Wem and Bronygarth Roads Bill was read a
third time and passed.

NUISANCES REMOVAL BILL.

The house went into committee on this bill.

Clause 8 having reference to the removal of anything
" offensive or injurious to health" caused some discus-
sion, it being proposed to omit the words " offensive
or," Dr. Mitchell remarking that the sanitary
condition of the people depended more upon
care in their eating and drinking than the inhaling
noxious effluvia. The districts around estuaries pro-
duced a greater amount of mortality than inland dis-
tricts, which the hon. member illustrated by showing
the rate of mortality in the estuary of the Avon being
greater than at Bristol and the Medway than that of
Liverpool.
The omission was agreed to.
Clause 9 provides that local authorities shall appoint
an inspector.
Mr. STANFORD moved that the word "may " be
substituted for " shall," so as to make it optional to ap-
point such an officer, because in many districts persons
might be found ready and willing to discharge the duties
without remuneration. a
Lerd LOVAINE objected to the amendment. It
was of great importonce such an officer should be ap-
pointed, and be made a compulsory appointment.

home. The carpenters and smiths are fully occupied, and,
had I double the number, they would not meet the require-
ments of the army and the expedition. The only men I can
dispense with for some time are the masons ; a few of the
miners might also go home ; but they are a very useful class
of men out here, where the whole country is rock, and the
majority of them can always be advantageously employed in
quarrying stone to the limekilns. Before the Prince of Wales
leaves with Captain Raymond matters may take a different
turn ; but at present I certainly do not see that we can spare
many men without seriously crippling the usefulness of the
expedition. Captain Raymond has received positive orders
from Captain Andrews to send home all the ships, except the
Levant and Von Humboldt. These are to remain ; the latter
is a very bandy ship for our
purpose, and may yet be exceed-
ingly usefql.
" P. S.--Since writing the above I have just learnt that
Commissary-Getieral Filder has received a positive order to
establish an issue department at head-quarters, and we take
up stores to-morrow."

THE NEW SCREW GUN-BOATS.

Although from the reports it will be seen that those vessels
that started for the Baltic have been compelled to put back,
and have received some damage, the circumstances of the
peril and-damage must not be regretted, as they have proved
most satisfactorily, not only the good qualities of the vessels
themselves, in spite of sententious croakers, but the difficul-
ties and dangers have served to develop° the skill, pluck, and
perseverance of the commanders, )fficers, and crews. It
must be remembered that the gale eruesday night and Wed-
nesday morning was one of the severest which has visited. our
coasts for some time, and that severel disasters have been re-
ported as its effects. The more prase, then, is due to the
commanders of the gun-boats, who weathered that gale, and.
proved themselves worthy of the commendation that we hear
has been conferred upon them and their officers and crews by
the Admiralty. Praise in those instances for such services
is gracious and timely, and cannot fail to encourage the de-
serving, and secure the object of those who are its dispensers
the efficiency of the naval servi3e. _ _

We understand that on the recommendation of the Sheer-
ness officers, inch cables are to be supplied to the screw gun-
boats, instead of five-eighths cables.
It is now determined to increase the number, so that both
fleets in the Baltic and Black Seas shall have a squadroaa of
these powerful little " sharpshooters."

MANNING TEE FLEET.
Although our fleets and squadrons are imfiroving in disci-
pline and seamanship by the colstant exercise of the lands-
men and boys, and may be deened of double the strength
this year (that is in the Baltic) as compared with last year,
yet it would be very desirable :f the vacancies in our screw
guard-ships and other men-of-Near in the home ports were
filled up. We require at least 1,500 more petty officer s and
seamen to man efficiently the fleel in commission.

ARRIVAL OF THE LILY FROM CHINA.

Her Majesty's sloop Lily, 12, Commander Sanderson,
arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from the Chin<'► and
Australian stations, last from tie Brazils. She was de-
tached from the China squadron and left Singapore on the
18th of November, 1854, arrived at Port Philip Dece:mber
29, left on the 23d of January, arrived at Rio on the 10th of
March last, and left on the 17th for Spithead. She brought
gold dust from Australia to the amount of 40,000/. sterling,
on merchants' account. She net with strong we sterly
gales, and in latitude 58'46 S. longitude 161.8 W. fell in
with large icebergs, and was running among them for a
fortnight; on coming upon theta the barometer wPis ob-
served to fall a great deal, accompanied by heavy snow-
storms. She passed the Exodus, of Liverpool, about 300
miles S.W. cf the Lizard, on the 28th ult., with less
of topmasts. When she left the Australian station her Ma-
jesty's ships Calliope and Acheron were at Sydney, and the
Fantome and Electra at Melbourne ; the marines and sea-
men of the Electra bad been landed on several occasions to
act with the military in the late disturbances. The Electra
had been to King's Island to rescue the crew of two merchant
vessels wrecked there, and had saved 20,000/. in specie. The
Lily has been five years and three months in commission,
during which time she has circumnavigated the globe. She
brought home Lieut. Davis, on promotion from the Electra ;
Lieut. Brock, on promotion from the Lily; Mr. Howarth,
mate, from the Electra ; Mr. Tucker, clerk, from the Fan-
tome ; and Mr. Douglas, mate, from the Styx, to join the

COURT-MARTIAL.

A court-martial assembled yesterday morning on board the
Victory flag-ship, to try Mr. Charles Hobbs, Chief Engineer,
of the 2d class, serviag on board her Majesty's ship
Hastings, Captain Caffin, for negligently performing his duty-
on the 24th of April, 1855, whereby he did not take the ne-
cessary steps to discover a fire which broke out between the
boilers of the said ship Hastings on that day, and for not
reporting the same to the commanding officer. The
Court declared the charge proved, but, in consideration
of the prisoner's previous good conduct, only adjudged him
to be dismissed from her Majesty's ship Hastings, to be
placed at the bottom of the list of the chief engineers of the
second-class, and to remain there for the space of one year.
The jack was then dipped and the Court reconstituted, with
Captain Fisher, of the Retribution, in the place of Captain
Wellesley, of the Pembroko, to try Lieut, John Packwood,
R.N., on the following charge :—" For that the conduct of
the said Lieut. John PackAsood, serving on board her Majes-
ty's ship Cornwallis, being in actual service and full pay,
fraudulent and unofficer.kke in knowingly incurring
which he has since refusedto pay." The Judge-Advocate
pro-
nounced the charge partly proved and the sentencedCourtb
the prisoner to be dismissed from her Majesty's ship Corn-
wallis.

STRICTURE of the URETHRA : its Rational
Treatment and Prompt Cure.
By F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
" We believe Mr. Conrtenay's experience in the treatment of stric-
ture during the last twenty years has equalled, if, indeed, it has not
surpti,ssed, that of any of his contemporaries. It is, therefore, no
matter of sm. prise that he should enjoy the reputation of being a
most ilexterous and skilful manipulator with urethral instruments ;
and if hen it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert
that Oe introduction of instruments through a stricture which had
previously been impermeable to them, was the most difficult in the
whole range of surgical operations, it must be no slight source of
gratification on Mr. Courtenay's part, to have achieved the reputation
he has in this resJect ; and for our part, with the knowledge we have
of his experience, we know of no man to whose care we would with
greater confidence entrust the treatment of a severe case of stricture
of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

The Marquis of SALISBURY moved that it be an
instruction to the select committee on the La Itn•
provement Company bill to inquire and repo the
house whether it would not be desirable that the powers
now vested in the Landf, Improvement Companies

Lord PORTMAN supported the motion.
Lord ST. LEONARDS suggested that the whole
question should be referred to a select committee, to
see whether this authority should, or should not, be
given. •

The motion was withdrawn, and notice given for a

WAR DEPARTMENT, MAY 7, 2.45 P.M.
Lord Panmure presents his compliments to
the Editor of The Sun, and has great pleasure in
transmitting the enclosed intelligence, which has
this day reached him from Lord Raglan :---

SEBASTOPOL, 6TH MAY, 9 P•

The enemy assaulted the advanced trench of
our right attack, last night, but were repulsed
promptly.
Our loss was three killed and twenty wounded.

PARIS, TUESDAY MORNING.

Count Colonna Walewski is appointed the Mi-
nister of Foreign Affairs in the place of Drouyn
de Lhuys, whose resignation has been accepted.
Persigny is to be the Ambassador to London,
in the place of Walewski.

VIENNA, MONDAY AFTERNoorr.

The Western Powers have declined the last
proposition, but the negotiations are not broken
off.

The news of M. Drouyn de Lhuys's resignation
caused a slight fall at the Bourse.
The departure of Baron Hess for the army is
again postponed.

We have also received the following from our
correspondent at Marseilles :
MARSEILLES, MONDAY EVENING.

The Indus, which left Constantinople on the
30th, bas arrived. Her despatches will leave by
the 8 o'clock train.

She brings advices from Kamiesh of the 28th

ultimo.

On the 25th, 26th, and 27th the fire on both
sides was suspended, but on the night of the 27th
the fire, both of artillery and small arms, was re-
sumed with great energy.

On the 28th there was a sharp fire of musketry-
before Sebastopol. Two batteries had been esta
blished in the 4th parallel.
Some engineer officers had gone to reconnoitre
Kaffa.

Thirty thousand men were preparing to set out
from tho camp at Maslak.

CONSTANTINOPLE, APRIL 30.

The Journal de Constantinople says that ar-
rangements were in progress for an encampment
of 2,500 French artillery and cavalry horses at
Varna. From this it was inferred that a strong
force would be assembled in Bulgaria.
Omer Pacha has arrived at Eupatoria, and
made a reconnait4sance. The Russians refused an
engagement ; their attack is nevertheless expected.

MADRID, MAY 7.

To cover the deficit, an extraordinary impost
en the goods of the church has been resolved on.

The resignation of M. Cuesto is accepted.

GENOA, MAY 3.
Eight thousand Sardinian troops have to this
date left our port for Cons',antinople.
London, England, 1855-05-08

FRANCE.

PARIS, MONDAY.
The Patrie publishes a "coiTimunicated" article,
announcing that the Government has not received
the news from the Crimea publislled by the Patric,
t'onstitutionnel, and Pays of the 6th and 7th of
May ; that the last despatches received by the
Minister of War are dated midnight, 6th of May ;
and that they simply contain detail's of military
service.

The Constitutionnel of yesterday says :—" The
last hopes of peace which attached themselves to
the Couterences of Vienna are rapidly disappearing.
The Eastern question is no longer in Vienna ; it is
altogether at Sebastopol."
The Moniteur announces that the reigning Duke
of Saxe Coburg Gotha arrived at Paris on Satur-
day, and on the same day dined at the Tuileries.
The Emperor paid a visit to his Royal Highness
on Sunday, at the hotel of the Prince de Chimay.
The Emperor has granted a pension of 4,000 fr.
a year to Madame Bizot, the widow of the Gene-
ral of Engineers, who received his death-wound
before Sebastopol.

A letter of the 24th ult., from the Camp before
Sebastopol, in the Journal de Constantinople,
says—
" The Flagstaff Battery is completely reduced to
silence, and the South Redoubt is in the same situa-
tion. The Malakhoff Tower only fires occasionally, to
show that it is still in existence. - The breach made
by our shot, on the first day of the bombardment,
in the wall which surrounds the town, has been re-
paired by the Ru-sians, and they have even mounted
a cannon on it, in order to thunder down on such
persons as might attempt to mount it. The same wall
to the right of the first breach, and nearly opposite the
old Russian barracks, is completely demolished to a
length of forty yards. Two nights ago the English
troops took posses-ion of the Russian rifle pits op-
posite the third bastion, and destroyed all the second
company of the regiment of Coasseurs of Vladimir
who defended those pits. The batteries of the Careen-
ing Bay, called by the French the White Batteries,
have been at,andoned by the Russians and immediately
occupied by the allied troops. Some dismounted guns
were found in them, which had been left there by the
enemy. These batteries bad been strer.gthened by
General Gortschakoff, and were the scene of the sangui
nary contests in which the 3,1 Regiment of Zouaves so
distinguished themselves. The capture of the Mite
Batteries is of the greatest importance, as their guns
played on the rear of our works."
The Independanee Beige says that Abd-el-Kader
has applied to the French Government for permis-
sion to visit Paris, to see the Great Exhibition,
and that the request will doubtless be granted.
