PROSECUTION OF THE WAR.
Order read, for resuming adjourned debate on amendment
proposed to be made to question (24th May), " That this

conduct of her Majesty's Government, in reference to the
great question of peace or war; and that, under these circum-
stances, this house feels it a duty to declare that it will con-
tinue to give every support to her Majesty in the rosecution.
of the war, until her Majesty shall, in conjunction with her
allies, obtain for this country a safe and honourable peace
(Mr. Disraeli). And which amendment was, to leave out
from the first word " house" to the word " feels," in order
to insert the words "having seen with regret that the Con-
ferences of Vienna have not led to a termination of hostili-
ties :"—(Sir Francis Baring). Instead thereof—Question
again proposed, " That the words proposed to be left out
stand part of the question." Debate resumed; question put.

THE WINNER OF THE DERBY.

SINGULAR FACT.
(Front the Monmouthshire Merlin.)
A. Monmouthshire gentleman, who has, we hear,
never made a wager upon a racing event in his life,
dreamed, about a fortnight since, that he had seen, in
the Evening Sun paper, Wild Dayrell running in to win
at the head of a ruck. This fact he told to several of
his friends, most of whom took the odds on Wild
Dayrell, and are now exulting in having realised hand-
some sums.

STRICTURE of the URETHRA : its Rational
Treatment and Prompt Cure.

By F. B. COUR I'EN AY,
Member of the Royal College of surgeons of England.
" We believe Mr. Courtenay's experience in the treatment of stric-
ture during the last twenty years has equalli d, if, indeed, it hue not
surpassed. that of any of his contemporaries. It is, therefore, no
mater of cut , rise that he should enjoy the reputation of being a
moat dexterous and skilful manipu atir with urethral instruments;
and a hen it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert
that the introduction of instruments through a stricture which had
previously been impermeable to them, was the most difficult in the
whole range of surgical operation,' it must be no slight source of
uratificqtion on Mr. 'ourtenay'ss.pArt _tolutve achieved the reputation

RUSSIAN CIRCULAR.

BERLIN, MAY 23.—The Russian Minister of
Foreign Affairs has, under datp of 10th instant,
issued the following circular to the representatives
of Russia :

"The Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs has just
received the following official announcement :—ln the
forenoon of the 16th (28th) April, an English officer, with
a flag of truce from the frigate l'lmperieuse, Capt. Watson,
notified in Port Baltic-1, that the Russian ports in the
Bay of Finland were declared to be blockaded from that
day ; 2, that the foreign, i.e., the neutral vessels which were
at that time in Port Baltic might leave the harbour,
but only in ballast, or with cargoes of other than Rus-
sian property ; 3. That to this end a term of seven days
was allowed them, but under the express condition that
they should take in no further cargo subsequent to the
date of the declaration of the blockade. When asked
whether ships that might leave the harbour on the
strength of this assurance would be allowed to pro-
secute their course unimpeded without danger of
being► stopped by any cruizers they might meet at sea,
the English officer declared that he could not take upon
himself to give that assurance, since it was possible that
the Admiral in command of the English fleet might sub-
sequently issue other orders. The Imperial Missions
and Consulates abroad are requested to bring these facts
to the knowledge of the Governments to which they are
accredited, leaving it to them to make them known to
all engaged in commercial pursuits. We call to their
rememberance at the same time, that the notification
published March 28 of the last year in the name of her
Britannic Majesty, contained the following declaration :
—` Her Majesty will waive her right to confiscate enemy's
goods on board neutral ships, except in the case of con-
tnband of war.' From the announcement made at
Port Baltic it appears, however, that England now re-
nounces the principle she adopted but a year ago of the
flag covering the cargo, and it will be expedient to draw
the attention of neutrals engaged in commerce to this
circumstance. _ _

"The Director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
Minister adlatus SENJAVIN."

AUSTRIA AND

THE WESTERN POWERS.

The Augsburg Gazette publishes the following as
the text of a note addressed by M. de Walewsiti,
the new French Minister of Foreign Affairs, to the
French Envoys abroad. It is dated 9th May :
" Sir I hasten to prevent by explicit declarations any
erroneous interpretation of a series of facts, so as to
enable you to contradict any wrong bearing given to
them.

" You are aware that Count Buol when, after a de-
claration of the Russian Plenipotentiaries which we
might have regarded as sufficient to authorise us to re-
gard the conferences as broken off, adjourned the re-
assembling of the conferences ; he nevertheless expressed
the desire to endeavour to find in a new combination a
means for realising the third point. The Vienna Cabi-
net did not hesitate to declare its firm intention to
maintain the alliance of the 2d of December when it
submitted to France and England propositions which
they examined with the greatest desire to find them
satisfactory.
" Unhappily their good intentions failed, as it was
impossible of making an arrangement, founded on such
a combination, agree with what their digulty demanded,
and the legitimate right which they hau made it their
mission to assert in the general interests of Europe. It
appeared, in fact, to the Cabinets of Paris and London,
that the interpretation of that point which is the most
important of all, and in reality the sanction of the others,
as proposed by Austria, responded neither to their ex-
pectations nor to the sacrifices they had made.
" If the Cabinet of St. Petersburg had accepted the
ultimatum proposed by the Court of Vienna peace would
have been re-established on weak foundations, the in-
efficiency of which would have led in the future to dan-
gers which it was the hope of the Allies from the be-
ginning of the crisis, and after the great efforts made by
the Allied Powers, to see banished for ever.
"Such are the motives which have induced us not to

adopt the plan proposed by the Austrian Government.
These motives are so evident, they are so fully justified
by the position of the Western Powers, that we do not
doubt the Court of Vienna will appreciate them in their
true meaning.
"The alliance of the 2d December is not, therefore,
brought in question. It is, on the contrary, the earnest
desire of the Government of the Emperor, and of the
Government of her Britannic Majesty, to strengthen and
develope it, and no doubts can exist at Vienna on the
subject. It is important, sir, that you should express
yourself clearly in this sense, and explain that, if the
situation has undergone a modification, it arises solely
from the fact that the Russian Plenipotentiaries, after
having accepted the third point in principle, afterwards
refused to admit its practical consequences.

RUSSIAN Cl 'ULAR.

BERLIN, MAY 23.—The Russian Minister of
Foreign Affairs has, under date of 10th instant,
issued the following circular to the representatives
of Russia :

"The Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs has just
received the following official announcement :—ln the
forenoon of the 16th (28th) April, an English officer, with
a flag of trucefrom the frigate l'lmnerieu Capt. Watson,
notified in Port Baltic-1, that the Russian ports in the
Bay of Finland were declared to be blockaded from that
day ; 2, that the foreign, i.e., the neutral vessels which were
at that time in Port Baltic might leave the harbour,
but only in ballast, or with cargoes of other than Rus-
sian property ; 3. That to this end a term of seven days
was allowed them, but under the express condition that
they should take in no further cargo subsequent to the
date of the declaration of the blockade. When asked
whether ships that might leave the harbour on the
strength of this assurance would he allowed to pro-
secute their course unimpeded without danger of
being stopped by any cruiz-irs they might meet at sea,
the English officer declared that he could not take upon
himself to give that assurance, since it was Rissible that
the Admiral in command of the English fleet might sub-
sequently issue other orders. The Imperial Mi-sions
and Consulates abroad are requested to bring these facts
to the knowledge of the Governments to which they are
accredited, leaving it to them to make them known to
all engaged in commercial pursuits. We call to their
rememberance at the same time, that the notification

published March 28 of the last year in the name of her
Britannic Majesty, contained, the following declaration :
---` fler Majesty will waive herright to confiscate enemy's
goods on board neutral ships, except in the case of con-
traband of war.' From the announcement male at
Port Baltic it appears, however, that England now re-
nounces the principle she adopted but a year ago of the
flag covering the cargo, and it will be expedient to draw
the attention of neutrals engaged in commerce to this
circumstance. _

Minister adlatus SENJAVIN."

CREMORNE GARDENS.

Although these gardens have been open for some
weeks to the public, the entertainments have been on a
limited scale, the intention being to reserve the grand
coup for the Whitsun holidays, which commence on
Monday, when in addition to multifarious attractions
and novelties which have been some months in prepara-
tion, and which render them as a whole superior to any-
thing of the kind in the world, a new ballet will be
presented, of which report speaks very highly, abound-
ing as it does with a variety of comic incidents, choreo-
graphic display, and effectively worked scenery, and in
aeronautic allegory of the goddess Flora, whioh the bois-
terous state of the wind, on Easter Monday last, pre-
vented from being carried into effect. In a former no-
tice of Cremorne public attention was drawn by us to the
Turco-French Illuminative Arch, which was projected
the latter end of last season to carry out the intended
French fetes, and which is now painted in a very beau-
tiful but varied style, bearing illusions by mottoes
as well as characters to the course of events which must
arise from the action of the combined European Powers
against the Russian aggressor. The subject is allegori-
cally treated in the inferior arches, while the superior
arch displays the standards of the five united countries,
England, France, Austria, Turkey, and Sardinia, and
when illuminated the structure presents spirited and
striking likenesses of Victoria, Louis Napoleon, and the
Pasha, supported by the arms of their separate countries,
while the figures, fruit, fish, and birds represented upon
the columns distinctly point out the four quarters of the
world, its elements, and its productions. But while
describing this brilliant feature, we would not pass
lightly over another proof of artistic merit which is pre-
sented in the elaborate model of a Turkish mosque,
termed the "Temple of Mahomet the Second," de-
signed and painted by Jones, to answer the double pur-
pose of masking the Bowling Saloon, and increasing the
brilliancy of the pyrotechnic displays. To those who are
acquainted with the peculiar style of Eastern architec-
ture, this splendid Oriental picture will be regarded as
an object of great interest; to those who are not its ter-
raced minarets and its lofty dome will be regarded with
surprise, and by all will be looked upon nightly and
daily as an artistic triumph not easily achieved. Many

THE GOVERNORSHIP OF GIBRALTAR.

Mr. BRIGHT said he had often had to complain, by
personal representation and memorial, of the interference
of the present Governor of Gibraltar with the trade of
that port, which complaint he had now to repeat. He
had been informed by the Duke of Newcastle, on a foK-
mer occasion, that the term of office of Sir R. Gardiner
would shortly expire, but that officer remained there
still. He wished, therefore, to ask the First Lord of
the Treasury whether it was the intention of the Govern-
ment or not to supersede hint ?
Lord PALMERSTON said that the period of service
of Sir R. Gardiner had expired, and that he now only
held office until his successor was appointed.
