PTEDIVIONT.

A serious disturbance occurred. at VigeVano,
Piedmont, on the 20th, occasioned by a procession
in honour of the Immaculate - Conception, which
was received with disapprobation by a large portion
of the population. To groans and hisses succeeded
missiles of the softer kind, whereupon the members
of the procession, who had been informed of the
intended demonstrwiOn, drew heavy bludgeons
from under their hooded robes, and set upon
the assailants. The latter entrenched themselves
in the cafe Gioberti, but were dislodged, and all
the furniture of tl,• coffee-horse was destroyed. In
the mean time a party of soldiers arrived ; some
arrests were male, and order restored. In the
evening the an ti-processiouists attempted to
revenge themselves by breaking the windows of
the bishop's palace and heminary, but the public
force was on the alert, and no further mischief
occurred.

EUPATORIA.

EURATORIA, May 11.—The Times' correspondent
says :-1 told you in my last letter that the sub-
marine telegraph was on its way to Eupatoria.
Now it is completed, at least as far as the line goes.
The day before yesterday the wires were laid down
up to the house of Omer Paella. Ralher naive were
the comments of the Turks and Tartars when they
were looking at the mysterious black serpent wind-
ing along the streets 'before it was buried in the
earth by the fatigue parties ordered out for the
purpose. The 'Pal tars are in vain breaking their
heads to find an explanation for this marifit (con-
trivance) of the Inglis. The Turks suT:ested
something about a lakm, (mine), or other awful
warlike ma:lincry, and both when told that the •
wire which they were covering with earth would
convey Omer Pacha's messages in a few seconds to
Sebastopol, and in a little more than a minute to
Varna, smiled incredulously, although exclaiming
aril) (marvellous).
The vessel which laid down the submarine wire
was taken advanl-age of to send another batch of
Tartar labourers to Sebastopol.
Yesterday afternoon the Valorous came in sud-
denly from Kamiesch, with an invitation to Omar
Pasha to go down. He embarked in the evening,
and is expected back to-morrow. MAY 14.
Omar Pasha has not yet returned fromliamiesch.

THE POLYTECHNIC.

The man must be hard to please indeed who cannot
spend an evening with profit, as well as pleasure, at the
Polytechnic. Taere is something to please all tastes,
and to improve all inquirers. Only glance at the carte:
A. telephonic Concert ; dissolving views of Einbad the
sailor ; Duboscq's illuminated cascade ; diorama illus-
trating the voyage across the A.Vantic and cities in the
'United States ; lectures on music by Mr. G. Buckland,
with vocal illustrations ; and dissolving views of the
war ! There was also added, yesterday evening, in
honour of the Whitsun holidays, a lecture to the indns•
trial classes, by Dr. Lankester, F.R.S., " On plants and
animals—their differences and resemblances." This is
unquestionably one of the most; instructive public insti•
tutions for the people in the metropolis.

• THE PANOPTICON.

Turning from the " Great Globe, and all which it in-
habit," the holidtsymakers' attention is arrested by the
elegant, oriental-looking building opposite—the Panop-
ticon—which well repays a visit. There is on view
here at present a striking representation of the Erup-
tion of Vesuvius, that fearful outburst of the' dread vol-
cano which is now laying waste the smiling vintages,
and desolating the peaceful ha mlets at the foot of the
fiery mountain.

MADAME TA SSAUD'S.
Yesterday this establishment• was crowded, both in
the morning and evening, with Visitors, and when WP
consider the several atttractio►zs of music, the splendid
decorations, groups and figures of distinguished persons,
of all ages and countr►es, we in ay confidently assert that
this exhibition cannot be surpassed by any in the we
tropolis.

MONT BL ANC
continues to draw innumerabls travellers to the Egyp-
tian•hall, where Mr. Albert Smith, taking the tourist
by the band, conducts him in the most safe and agree-
able manner through all the perils of the ascent of the
" monarch of mountains." The universal popularity of
this exhibition is "a great fact," of which Mr.•timith
may well be proud.

HAYMARKET THEATRE. GEORGE TCRPIN'S
BENEFIT.—The auuual benefit of the attentive and
obliging box book-keeper at this establishmet, Mr.
G.
Turpin, takes place to-morrow evening, on which occa-
sion will be performed Bulwer's beautiful play of the
Lady of Lyons; a new farce by the talented lesseand e, is
n
which he himself will sustain the leading part ;
variety of other enteitaininents. .We trust tbat the
house will be a bumper, for Mr. Turpin does really and
trzly " deserve the support and patronage of the public."
LAW VACANCIES.—There is much competition amongst
the bar for the appointinenla vacated by Mr. Phinn, the
Second Secretary to the A diniralty, viz.:—Counsel to
the Admiralty, Judge-Advocate of the Fleet, Recorder
of Devonpurt, Counsel to Post-office on Western Cir-
cuit and to the Royal Forests in Hampshire. The first
appointment is worth, 5041. per annum.

TillS DAY).

COURT OF CHANCERY.
The Lords Justices sat with the Lord Chancellor to-
day, for the purpose of hearing appeals.

DASH V. noDGsobr.
This case, upon the application of counsel, was ordered
to be on the paper for Friday, in consequence of the
parties not being prepared.
Upon this arrangement being entered into, the Lord
Justice Knight Bruce intimated that the Lords Justices
would take the case which bad been appointed to be
heard before tbem on Friday, and on which several gen-
tlemen from the common law bar were engaged, on
Monday next.
(Before the Vice-Chancellor Wood.)
'TURNER V. IRLAM-JUDGMENT.
His Honour gave judgment to-day in this case, in
which the principal question was whether certain pro-
perty purchased by George B ►rton Liam and Jonathan
Higginson was partnership property or not. The pro-
perty in question which was purchased in 1837, was
situate in Tabley and Sparling-streets, in Liverpool. The
plaintiffs were merchants in that town in 1837, as were
also the defendants, who had also carried on trade at
Birbadoes. Bankruptcy and death had materially
altered the relations of all parties, the plaintiffs. having
become the assignees of the mortgagers oh the property
purchased in Liverpool, in 1837, sought by the present
bill to redeem that mortgage. In opposition to that
claim it was contended that the property was not part-
nership property, but belonged solely to the estates of
Irlam and Higginson.
His Honour, this morning, said that he had most
carefully looked over all the papers in the case, and was
of opinion that he could not dispose of the question
without an issue. He would, therefore, direct one for
the purpose of trying the question, whether the property
purchased in 1837, by Higginson and Irlam, was pur-
chased on behalf of the partnership, giving liberty to
either party, if they wished it, to have a special jury.
1 The other Equity Courts heard motions, but no case
calling for a special report came before them.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
;Guildhall Sittings, before Mr. Justice Wightman and a

common jury.)
LECOUTRE V. STERN.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover
281. 5s 4d from the defendant. The plaintiff is a ship's
chandler, carrying on business at Russell-street, Ruther-
hithe, and the defendant for some time` acted as a kind
of commission agent to him. The arrangement was that
all goods sold by the defendant should be sent on board
the various ships, debited to. the various captains, but
paid for by him, he receiving a commission of 5 per cent.,
and in some instances m,,re, and the claim in question
was for goods supplied and 161. money lent. In
February last the defendant opened a store on his own
account, and discontinued favouring the plaintiff with
any further orders, and the plaintiff applied to him for
the amount sued for. The defendant had paid 81. 14s 8d
into court, and pleaded a set-off for the remainder.
After hearing evidence the jury nonsuited the plain-
tiff.

GREAT GLOBE, LEICESTER-SQUARE.

TILE BALTIC —Mr. Wyld yesterday opened a room in
the building of the Great Globe for the purpose of exhi-
biting a model of the coast of Finland, with Cronstadt
and St. Petersburg, which at the present moment cannot
fail to be inttrestin2, and, as exVained in the occasional
lectures, instructive. The model of Sebastopol, with
the lecture on the seat of more active operations than
have ai yet taken place in the Baltic, appeared yester,
day to be the most attractive portion of the exhibition—
the lecturer never having to complain of the want of an
audience.

LIFE AND DEATH.

" One instance of the sudden change in the condition of
the wounded came to my own notice, in a very painful man-
ner. I had visited a very young officer, at the wish of some
of his friends in England ; he was so severely wounded that
I had no hope myself that he could recover ; those about
him, however, did not take the same view. I had from time
to time got him g.me, biscuits, &c., from Vera, which he
seemed to enjoy ; sitting with him one afternoon, I promised
to bring him the next day some jelly and a game pie
he seemed to fancy, and also a mosquito net to keep the
flies from him (they were at times in the hospitals a
perfect pest). I went ov.n. early the next morning with the
things I had promised, walked into the room, and as soon as
I had put my load upon the table, I turned as usual to ask
him how he was—the clothes were all removed from the bed,
on which, under a sheet, lay his corpse ; he had died a few
hours after I left him. We cut cff some of his hair, sealed
up his papers, &c.,—in ten minutes one of the chaplains had
found for me another wounded officer, most thankful for the
things I had brought."
Speaking of the gentle evidences witnessed by
him in the Scutari Hospital, of true " brother-offi-
cer" attachments, Mr. Osborne has shortly before
this remarked—" In no woman watching over her
own child did I ever see greater tenderness, pati-
ence, and st-lf-denial than I witnessed in the care
taken of Captain Williams, of the Scots Greys, by
Major Nasmyth."
As affording a picturesque glimpse of hospital-
life at Scutari, take the following account of the
wounded heroes of the Alma, Balaklava, and Ink-
ermau : •

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 25th, in the Post-
Ampt Gazette of Frankfort, says :—" Some non-
official indications have been given which allow
a judgment to be formed of the answer which will
be given by Prussia to the Russian note com-
municated by M. Glenka. Prussia will declare
that she accepts with satisfaction the offer of Rus-
sia to completely guarantee the first two points
which the Germanic Diet declared by its resolution
of 9th Dec. last, more especially interested Germany,
bit that she cannot pledge herself to observe an abso-
lute and unconditional neutrality as the obliga-
tions imposed on her by the Federal laws and
by her treaty with Austria will not allow her
to do so. It is known that Austria has given
the Western Powers reason to hope that she
will shortly take an active co operation in the
war, but that she has demanded that a last at-
tempt shall first be made to bring about a peace.
In the new conferences, the discussion will be con-
fined to the last Austrian propositions, which
however do not appear to have the precise form
which have been attributed to them by the New
Prussian Gazette, and other non-official publica-
tions."

The Cassel Gazette says :—" On the occasion
of the fete of St. Boniface (Juno 5), which is
to be held at Mentz, the Cardinal Archbishop
Prince de Schwartzenberg has convoked all the
German Bishops, to assemble in that place for
the first three weeks of that month. At this meet-
ing, the pending questions concerning the relations
of the German Episcopacy with the public autho-
rities will be discussed."

the greatest activity in increasing the strength
of the fortifications on the coasts on either side
of the Gulph of Finland, and at other ports in
the Baltic. In the rear of the batteries at Revel
earthworks have been thrown up, and upwards of
100 guns of large calibre added to those which were
there previously. Off Sweaborg and Helsingfors,
' on every position liable to all
,attack, lotteries have
been erected, every precaution taken to prevent
the landing of troops irom the allied fleets, and
measures adopted for the most vigorous resistance
to the operations of the combined forces of Eng-
land and France, who, in order to gaia any im-
portant advantage over the enemy, have now a
difficult task to perform, but which it is to be hoped
will, nevertheless, be speedily undertaken.

SPAIN.

MADRID, 27th.—The insurgent soldiers and some
peasants of Aragon who had joined them have been
demoralised by the march of Queen's troops on
Daroca. The Cortes will to-morrow discuss the
bill relative to the extended powers demanded by
the Government. The cholera has sensibly de-
creased in this capital.
MADRID, 27th, Evening.—A part of the insur-
gents of Saragossa have been put to the rout by
the inhabitants of Semper. The other insurgents,
to the number of 130 infantry and 40 cavalry, who
had marched on Calatayud, are pursued by eleven
columns of the Queen's troops. Maestrazzo has
been declared in a state of siege.

GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION.

At this favourite resort of martial sight-seers the great
events of the war are admirably portrayed. There are
now to be seen life-like views of the great battles o
Alma and Inkerman ; the celebrated cavalry charge at.
Balaklava ; also a pictorial map of Sebastopol, and a
view of the Balaklava Railway. An appropriate and
very interesting lecture is given by Mr. Stocqueler,
elu-
cidating the pictorial illustrations of the events of the
war.

AN OPERATION UNDER CHLOROFORM.

" I assisted at one very painful case, in which a branch of
the femoral artery had to be taken up ; there were great dffi-
cultics about it, so much so, that one of the best surgeons
there did not seem to me to/Ike to attempt it ; it was, how-
ever, done by Dr. 11111 ray assisted by some others ; lam
afraid to say the length of time the patient was under the in-
fluence of chloroform his head was on my knee the greater
part of the time, and I had to keep up the administration of
this inestimable agent ; at last they succeeded in getting a
ligature round the vessel ; I was then left with one of the
surgeons, to try and recover him from the torpor, under
which he had, without pain, borne a most severe appli-
cation of the knife, &c. Our only hope, from the quantity of
blood he bad lost, was, to get some stimulant taken as
soon as we could ; in vain we tried every means of rousing.
him ; the pulsation of the heart was so weak, his whole ap-
pearance such, I had begun to despair. As a last resort, I
found out his name, and had him sharply spoken to by it ; so
strong was t'T force of habit, that he made just sufficient
effort to waken to enable us to order him to drink the wino
we gave him, keeping up the same sharp military tone of
voice, we got more and more swallowed, and he soon re-
covered ; I saw him some days after doing well."

READING THE NEWSPAPERS.

' It was most interesting to see the avidity with which
newspapers from England were received ; many of the sol-
diers, read aloud remarkably well. I have seen a black-
whiskered fine-looking man, propped up in bcd, chosen as a
reader ; having lost an arm, they had folded the paper for
him, so that 'he could, holding it in one hand, get at the
battle bit :' cripples of all kind- crept up, and sat on and
about the adjoining beds ; as far as his voice could be heard (it
was aloud Irish one) you might see men turned in their beds,
tryi•:g to drink in every word; on he went, right through
the whole, beginning in rather a monotone style, he soon
warmed 1:p, and as the m n said—' gave it out well.' Then
there would be a hail from a distant bed—` I say let us have
it up here now,' and some crippled patient would come

WOODIN'S ENTERTAINMENT.

Mr. Woodin, already so favourably known to the
public by his " Sketch-book" and " Carpet-bag," at the
Regent-street Gallery, has st‘rted a fresh " concern'
in King William-street, Strand. This new entertain.
ment he has named " Woodin's Olio of Oddities." It
takes a more ambitious range than Mr. Woodin's pre.
vious performances. It comprises an entirely new corals
entertainment, and a moving panorama of the romantio
lake scenery of England. This new speculation of Mr.
Woodin's is a decided "hit," and one that seems to be
highly appreciated by the public.

GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION.

At this favourite resort of martial sight-seers the great
events of the war are admirably portrayed. There are
now to be seen life-like views of the great batt!ee of
Alma and Inkerman ; the celebrated cavalry charge at
Balaklava. ; also a pictorial map of Sebastopol, and a
view of the Balaklava Railway. An appropriate and
very interesting lecture is given by Mr. Stocqueler, elu-
cidating the pictorial illustrations of the events of the

war.

GREAT GLOBE, LEICESTER-SQUARE.
THE BALTIC.—Mr. Wyld yesterday opened a room in
the building of the Great Globe for the purpose of exhi-
biting a model of the coast of Finland, with Cronstadt
and St. Petersburg, which at the present moment cannot
fail to be interesting, and, as explained in the occasional
lectures, instructive. The model of Sebastopol, with
the lecture on the seat of more active operations than
have as yet taken place in the Baltic, appeared yester-
day to be the most attractive portion of the exhibition—
the lecturer never having to complain of the want of an
audience.

EUPATORIA.

- -
EITPATORIA, May 11.—The Times' correspondent
says :—I told you in my last letter that the sub-
marine telegraph was on its way to Eupatoria.
Now it is completed, at least as far as the line goes.
The day before yesterday the wires were laid down
up to the house of Omer Pasha. Rather waive were
the comments of the Turks and Tartars when they
were looking at the mysterious black serpent wind-
ing along the streets before it was buried in the
earth by the fatigue parties ordered out for the
purpose. The Tartars are in vain breaking their
heads to find an explanation for this marifet (con-
trivance) of the Inglis. The Turks suggested
something about a lakm, (mine), or other awful
warlike machinery, and both when told that the
wire which they were covering with earth would
convey Omer Pacha's messages in a few seconds to
Sebastopol, and in a little more than a minute to
Varna, smiled incredulously, although exclaiming
agaib (marvellous).
The vessel which laid down the submarine wire
was taken advantage of to send another batch of
Tartar labourers to Sebastopol.
Yesterday afternoon the Valorous came in sud-
denly from Kamiesch, with an invitation to Omar
Pasha to go down. He embarked in the evening,
and is expected back to-morrow. MAY 14.
Omar Pasha has not yet returned from Kamiesch.

SPAIN.

MADRID, 27th.—The insurgent soldiers and some
peasants of Aragon who had joined them have been
demoralised by the march of Queen's troops on
Daroca. The Cortes will to-morrow discuss the'
bill relative to the extended powers demanded by
the Government. The cholera has sensibly de-
creased in this capital.

gents of Saragossa have been put to the rout by
the inhabitants of &raper. The other insurgents,
to the number of 130 infantry and 40 cavalry, who

columns of the Queen's troops. Maestrazzo has
been declared in a state of siege.

READING THE NEWSPAPERS.

" It was most interesting to see the avidity with which
newspapers from England were received ; many of the sol-
diers read aloud remarkably well. I have seen a black-
whiskered fine-looking man, propped up in bed, chosen as a
reader; having lest an arm, they had folded the paper for
him, so that he could, holding it in one hand, get at the
battle bit :' cripples of all kinds crept up, and sat on and
about the adjoining beds; as far as his voice could be heard (it
was a loud Irish one) you might see menturned in their beds,
trying to drink in every word; on he went, right through
the whole, beginning in rather a monotone style, hs soon
warmed up, and as the msn said—' gave it out well.' Then
there would be a hail from a distant bed—' I say let us have
it up here now,' and some crippled patient would come
scrambling down to beg the paper ; a new reader would be
found, and nearly the same scene again and again repeated "

As affording us another yet more interesting
group, sketched by Mr. Osborne, a group in which
his own figure will be recognised, we cannot resist

THE TRANSPORT SERVICE.

The Arab, hired freight-ship, left Portsmouth harbour
yesterday evening for the Black Sea with provisions and
stores for the fleet.

The Dee, steam-transport, Master• Commander Pul-
len, left Portsmouth yesterday, on her return to Wool-
wich.

The sailing-transport Julia, No. 111, Captain Baker,
arrived at Spithead yesterday from the East with 177
invalids and six women, in charge of Assistant-Surgeon
W. A. Frith and Lieutenant E. H. Marsh, of the 34th
Regiment. She sailed from Constantinople on the 30th
of March ; Malta, on the 14th of April ; and Gibraltar,
on the 27th. Only one death occurred on the passage,
and all the rest of those on board have progressed most
favourably during the voyage.
The General Screw Company's steam-ship Cape of
Good Hope, of 700 tons' burden and 100 horse-power,
lying at Southampton undergoing repairs, was surveyed
yesterday, for the purposes of the transport service.
After a most minute measurement she was found capable
of providing accommodation for 43 horses, 54 men, and
eight or ten officers. The capacity for cargo which the
Cape of Good Hope possesses, as compared with her
comparatively small tonnage, renders her a valuable
vessel for despatching stores, summer clothing, or any
commodity which may be deemed essential for the use
of the army in the Crimca.
The screw•transports Victoria and Adelaide ate still
at Southampton undergoing repairs. It will be sever a,l
days before either will be ready for sea.

The Royal mail steam-ship Orinoco, fitting for horses
at Southampton, will, it is expected, be ready for sea by
the 27th instant.

The steam-ship Falcon, 17, Commander W. J. S. Pul-
len, which left Portsmouth on Monday morning, arrived
in Plymouth Sound yesterday, with 100 Russian pri-
soners ; and the steam-ship Cruiser, 17, Commander the
Hon. George H. Daug,la,s, also from Portsmouth, arrived
at the same time with eight officers and 150 Russian
soldiers, received from the screw steam-ship Simla. The
Cruiser was appointed to return immediately to Ports-
mouth, preparatory to sailing for the Baltic.
The steam-transport Indiana, with troops and horses,
from the Thames, was off Plymouth on Sunday evening.
The sailing transport the Lancashire Witch, Capt. Mol-
lison, left the Sound on Monday, for the Crimea. The
schooner Stag, with clothing, from Portsmouth, com-
menced discharging in the Royal William Victualling-
yard on Monday.
The merchant ship City of Manchester, belonging to
Liverpool, was off Plymouth yesterday, with sails and
rigging damaged and leaky ; crew sick. She is reported
to be 140 days from Callao.

The THIRD and FOURTH VOLUMES are now ready, comprising the
period from 1800 to 1810, and completing the work, of

THE DUKE of BUCKING-HAM'S MEMOIRS
of the COURT and CABINETS of GEORGE 111., from
Ornanal Family Documents.
"The present volumes," says the" Athenmum,"" exhibit the same
fe,tures as the former portion of the series. :the general reader is
entertained and the reader for historical purposes is enli,htened. Of
their value and importance there cannot be two opinions. There are
abundant revelations of interest to arrest attent4on in many of these
papers. On the characters of George IV. and the Duke of Wellington
there are some very valuable let‘ers. In Court scandals the affairs
of the Duke of York and alrs. Clarke are brought under notice; and
in what we may designate as public sclndals, the ' horrors of rou-
tine,' receive abundant illustration In the letters about the Walcheren
Expedition and on the Peninsular War. Our extracts sufficiently
show the high interest belonging to these volumes."

THEATRE ROYAL, DRURY-LANE.-
Lessee, Mr. E. T. SMlTM.—Grand Opera. Ballet, and Musical
Entertainment.—The great success achieved by Signor and Ldame
sr,
and the artistes who have appeared under the rec* at oirec-
-221' of the Royal Opera, has induced Mr. E. T. -mitt' to enter
.T;4, arrangements by which he has secured the services, for a
limited number of nights, of the eminent artistes who have atready
appeared, as well as those with whom negotiations were pend-
ing. Under Mr. Smith's direction the T EATRE will OPEN

Amine, Madame Gassier; Rudolpho, Signor Gassier. After the
opera a Grand Ballet will be produced, in which Sidlle. Palmyra,
the first dansense at the principal theatres of the continent,
will appear. In addition to the above distinguished vocalists, Mr.

and Signor Aintentli, from the principal continental theatres, who
will make their Aix; appearance in England at this theatre on Thurs-
day, May 17, in the opera. of Norma. In offering such an array of
talent to the public at the following reduced prices, and in conse-
quence of the great losses accruing from issuing free admissi,ns, Mr.
Smith is determined to discontinue the practice, and rely solely on
the support of the public. Prices of admission :—To the two gal-
leries. 6d.; second circle of boxes and pit, Is ; dress circle, 2s. 6d. ;
sta Is, 45.; private boxes to admit two persons, 10s. 6d. ; four per-
