SOUTH SEA MOUSE ESTATE, THREADNEEDLE=STREET.
MESSRS. BEADEL and SONS are favoured
with instructions to SUBMIT to PUBLIC COMPETITION,
on TUESDAY, Feb. 27, at 12, the above valuable PROPERTY,
having extensive frontage to Threadneedle-street, communicating
thence with Old Broad-street, and covering a superficial area of
nearly three-quarters of an acre. This very eligible property is,
with a small exception, freehold, and is all land-tax redeemed. It
comprises the present South Sea House, a most substantially erected
fabric, three valuable messuages used as offices, the open areas sur-
rounding the South Sea House, the whole of which will be offered in
one lot; also a small building now occupied with the Flower Pot
Pablic-hoase, which will be sold separately. The property presents
a rare opportunity for the acquisition of a compact Freehold Estate
in the neighbourhood of the Bank of England, and, in its present
state, will realise a handsome rental ; but if judiciously re-arranged
will probably realise an Increased income in ground rents, and the
materials will find a ready sale to the various lessees.—Particulars,
with lithographic plans attached, are now ready, and may be had
on application to Messrs. Wordsworth, Greathead, and Blake, solici-
tors, at the south Sea House, Threadneedle-street ; at the Mart/ and

SPAIN.

The Madrid gazette, of the 2d, promulgates with
the Royal sanction the bill adopted by the Cortes
providing that under th e name of the provincial mi-
litia, and asa, reserve for the army 80 battalions shall
be raised. The Nacion declares that the government
had received favourable news relative to the loan
of 230,000,000 reals (the real is worth five sous,
—in Burgos, Alicante, and other places, the
voluntary subscriptions were considered certain
to amount to the total required ; at Barcelona and
Jerez they were already very considerable, and at
Madrid exceeded 2,000,000 reals. General Villa-
longa had resumed the command of the province of
Valencia. A letter, of the 3d, in advance of the
regular mail, says :—" The Spanish Ministry has
decidedly taken a resolution with respect to Spanish
intervention iu the Crimea. ; but it is not to be
forgotten-Ist, that the affair is not yet definitively
arranged since it must be submitted to the appro-
bation of the Cortes ; 2dly, that the Cortes will
not meet before October, though certain news-
papers have affirmed the contrary ; 3dly, that in
case a perfect unlerstanding should be come t:,
with England and France, the execution of the

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 4th, in the Post
Ampt Gazette of Frankfort, says :—" It is posi-
tively stated that the coronation of the Emperor
of Russia will take place at Moscow in the autumn.
The King and Queen and the Prince of Prussia
will return to their capital at the end of next
week. The health of the King has much improved
during his residence at Ermannsdorff. General
de Reyber, chief of the staff of the army, will leave
to-morrow for Jande."

Spener's Gazette, of Berlin, says :—" The at-
tention of our merchants is engaged on a piece of
news which is of great importance for them. It is
said that in consequence of the great injury in-
flicted on Russia by the blockade, that power is
about to do away with its system of Custom-houses
on the frontiers of Prussia and Austria, in order to
be able to procure by land the productions of which
she stands in need. It is probable that treaties on
this subject will be concluded for some years, and
it is said that the Cabinet of St. Petersburg has
already made confidential overtures to that effect
to our government."

PIEDMON T.

The Annonia, the clerical organ of Turin, has
opened a subscription for the purpose of indemnify-
ing those curates who should refuse the increase
of stipend awarded to them by the law for the sup-
pression of convents in Piedmont. The bishop of
Cline°, on the 30th ult., convoked the curates of
his diocese, and enjoined them not to accept the
said increase of stipend, promising to indemnify
them out of his own private purse ; whereupon
they consented to obey his injunctions. The op-
position, however, is not general; for the Opinione,
and other Piedmontese papers, announce that many
curates have already received the first half-yearly
payment without the slightest difficulty.

Baron de Budberg, the Russian Ambassador at
Berlin, and Prince Gortschakoff, the Russian Am-
bassador at Vienna, had an interview at Dresden
on the Ist inst. Count Benkendorff, the Russian
Military Plenipotentiary at Berlin, was also pre-
sent.

" The Emperor of Russia," says the Post Ampt
Gazette of Frankfort, " has just made a present of
two diamond rings of great value, one to M. Lin-
denberg, the editor of the Westphalia Gazette, and
the other to Dr. liesckiel, one of the editors of the
New Prussian, Gazette."

A letter from Vienna says :—" The young Arch-
duke Charles Louis, brother of the Emperor of
Austria, who has just been nominated to the post
of Imperial Lieutenant of the Tyrol, has also been
promoted to the rank of Major-General. Count
Categan do Bissingen, who has thus been replaced
as Governor of the Tyrol, is named to a similar
post at Venice."
We read in the Constitutionnel :—" A telegra-
phic despatch received from Hanover informs us
that a royal proclamation, dated the 4th, orders
the immediate execution of the decrees of the Diet,
and prescribes the immediate carrying into effect of
the constitutional changes contained in these de-
crees. The Hanoverian Government has thus
wished to avoid the nomination by the Diet of a
commission charged to regulate the differences of
Hanover. The reforms prescribed by the Diet,
and the non-acceptance of which by the Second
Chamber has just led to the dissolution of that
assembly, will be at once carried into execution,
and probably without any serious opposition."

The Count de Flandre returned to the Chateau
de Laeken from Ostend, on Sunday.

FOURPENCE.

FOR THE THIRD OR LATEST EDITION.

In consequence of the abolition of the Stamp
Duty on Newspapers the public in all
large cities and towns to which parcels
are forwarded by the News-Agents, The
Sun, which formerly cost Fivepence-half-
penny for the Latest Edition, containing
Parliamentary Debates of the same even-
ing, together with the List of Army and
Navy Promotions in the London Gazette,
with Official Despatches from the Seat of
War, the Latest Sporting, and all other
Commercial News, List of Bankrupts,
&c., &c., can now be had for Fourpence,
being a saving of nearly , one-third.
Hitherto the price of the paper was nomi-
nally Fivepence, but all Late Editions
posted after six o'clock were charged a
fee of One Halfpenny by the Post-office,
which made the price to the Subscriber
Fivepence-Halfpenny. This charge must
still be made to those in remote places,
unless the Postmaster-General have the
magnanimity to forego such a paltry
source of revenue.

MILITARY OFFICERS.

In reply to the fo►lowing questions from Mr. STANLEY,
whether Seijeant Saddler Brodie, of the Ist Dragoons,
at Canterbury, had received any order to join the regi-
ment on foreign service, after 19 years of civilian duty
as saddler ; if he bad been specially examined by the
surgeon, and reported as unfit fcr duty ; if he is recom-
mended for pension ; and if any inquiry bad been made
in the Crimea by General Sir W. Scarlett into the con-
duct of Captain Fitz wygram to wards Cornet Baumgarten,
and, if so, if any report had been made to the Horse
Guards

Mr. PEEL said that Serjeant Brodie had been found
unfit by the colonel of the regiment to which he belonged
for active service at home, and the reason he had not
been put on the pension list was because he had not
served a sufficient time. With respect to Captain Fitz-
wygram, from an inquiry issued by Colonel Scarlett,
that officer had been exonerated from the charges that
had been made against him with reference to the affairs
at Canterbury, and he had nothing to do with the prac-
tical jokes perpetrated on Cornet Baumgarten.

whether Serjeant Saddler Brodie, of the let Dragoons,
at Canterbury, had received any order to join the regi-
ment on foreign service, after 19 years of civilian duty
as saddler; if he had been specially exAtnined by the
surgeon, and reported as unfit fer duty ; if he is recom-
mended for pension ; and if any inquiry had been made
in the Crimea by General Sir W. Scarlett into the con-
duct of Captain Fitz wygram towards Cornet Baumgarten,
and, if so, if any report had been made to the Horse
Guards

Mr. PEEL said that Serjeant Brodie had been found
unfit by the colonel of the regiment to which lie belonged
for active service at home, and the rettE;on he had not
been put on the pension list was becaive he had not
served a sufficient time. With respect to Captain Fitz-
wygrarn, from an inquiry issued by Colonel Scarlett,
that. officer had been exonerated from the charges that
had been made against him witb reference to the affairs
at Canterbury, and he had nothing to do with the prac-
tical jukes perpetrated on Cornet Baumgarten.

GRAND ORDMOBNE PETE.

The name of Simpson has justly become famous in the
land. The gallaut commander of our Crimean army
worthily upholds its glory before the beleaguered for-
tress of Sebastopol, whilst our peaceful metropolis boasts
of a renowned ornament of the name in the spirited
manager of the Cremorno Gardens. His inventive
genius has evoked' a new feature of paramount in-
terest, which promises to eclipse the brilliancy of all
the Ales that have h;.therto been given at this un-
equalled arena of variegated entertainments. Mr.
Simpson is about to pay his tribute to the general fund
of patriotic subscriptions by giving a grand military
spectacle and fete, on the evening of Monday, the 13th
inst., under immediate Royal patronage. The proceeds
are to be devoted to the benefit of the Wellington Col-
lege, an institution which has peculiar claims upon pub-
lic support, being founded in honour of the Great
Duke's memory for the education and maintenance of
_ thesprphan children of officers whose lives have been
devoted to the service of their country. Very extensive
preparations have been making for some time past to
residet the occasion worthy of such peculiar patronage.
The adjoining grounds of Ashburnham House are made
available for tine representation of the great siege which
now engrosses the attention of the world. A gigantic
pictorial representation of Sebastopol is erected ; mortar
and gun batteries, rifle pits, field trains, and all the
poisspt and circumstance requisite to afford a vivid
mimicry of its terrific bombardment, are all but com-
pleted, and several companies of the Household troops
are to lend animation to the affray. The Prince Consort
and several distinguished military men have expressed
their admiration of the details which have been submitted
to them ; and it is confidently anticipated that so mag-
nificent a spectacle will be the most striking event of
the present London season.
This crowning triumph of liberality and enterprise cn
the part of Mr. Simpson deserves to be appreciated by
anticipation, and to form an additional claim on the
favour of his p,Arons next Thursday night, which is
fixed for his annual benefit. No manager has ever more
4trenuously exerted himself in the cause of popular
ainusement, arid, as such, -he is entitled to a specie;
mark of favour on the evening of his yearly " at home.'

RUSSIA.

A letter from St. Petersburg, of the 28th ult.,
states that the Governor of Kursk had announced
that the seventeen battalions of militia of his Go-
vernment were completely organised, and ready to
march wherever required, and that the Emperor
had expressed his gratitude to Generals Bielanzow
and Besanon, who had superintended the organisa-
tion. A. 3, however, lists of officers nominated to
the battalions were daily appearing, it was sup-
posed that the organisation was not so complete as
represented. It was said that the prohibition to
make exports to the Principalities was about to be
rescinded, as it had been as regards Austria ; this
measure would enable the Austrians to obtain their
supplies cheaper. The letter adds that the Gover-
nor of Moscow had sent to St. Petersburg a me-
lancholy report on the state of commerce in his
Government.

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 4th, in the Post
rcpt Gazette of Frankfort, says :—" It is posi-
tively stated that the coronation of the Emperor
of Russia will take place at Moscow in the autumn.
The King and Queen and the Prince of Prussia
will return to their capital at the end of next
week. The health of the King has much improved
during his residence at Ermannsdorff. General
de Reyber, chief of the staff of the army, will leave
to-morrow for Jande."

Spener•'s Gazette, of Berlin, says :—" The at-
tention of our merchants is engaged on a piece of
news which is of great importance for them. It is
said that in consequence of the great injury in-
flicted on Russia by the blockade, that power is
about to do away with its system of Custom-houses
on the frontiers of Prussia and Austria, in order to
be able to procure by land the productions of which
she stands in need. It is probable that treaties on
this subject will be concluded for some years, and
it is said that the Cabinet of St. Petersburg has
already made confidential overtures to that effect
to our government."

(From a Supplement to Tuesday's Gazette.)
VAR-DEPARTMENT, AUG. 8.
Lord Panmure has this day received a despatch and
its enclosures, of which the following are copies, ad-
dressed to his lordship by General Simpson, Command-
ing her Majest'y Forces in the East :
Refore Sebastopol, July 28, 1855.
My Lord,—Since my despatch of the 24th inst., I
have nothing of importance to relate to you. We con-
tinue to strengthen and improve our advanced works,
which are now so °lose to the enemy's trenches, that I
regret to say that our casualties are necessarily consi-
derable.
The enemy exhibit great activity in adding to and
improving their defences, and the conveyance of large
military stores from the north to the south side is in-
creasing.
I beg to transmit the lists of casualties to the 26th
inst., and the confidential fortnight reports of the Gene-
rals of Division and Brigade.
The cholera has nearly ceased in the ranks of the
army.

I have, &C., JAMES SIMPSON',
Lieut.• General Commanding.
