SPAIN.

Dispatches from Madrid, dated the lath, state that
the period of the return of the QUEEN to the capital
was uncertain, as the benefit derived by the Princess
of ASTURIAS from her residence at San Ildefonso bad
been so great as to induce her MAJESTY to prolong
her stay here.

The Heraldo was to be tried on the 19th.

GERMANY.

At the Customs Conference held at Berlin on the
18th, Prussia only invited the Plenipotentiaries of
Hanover, Oldenburg, Brunswick, and the Thuringian
States. The Prussian Government made a statement
to the following effect :—" The Prussian Government
had waited to the 15th for the reply of those Govern-
ments which had not immediately acceded to its de-
claration of the 30th of August. No reply had been
received. In consequence, Prussia could in future
only negotiate with those States who notified their
assent to that declaration, and will invite to the con-
ferences the representatives only of those States who
have made known their intentions in that sense."

The plenipotentiaries of the states of the Darmstadt
coalition, who are assembled at Munich, had a meet-
ing on the 17th. The plenipotentiaries are the same
that took part in the conferences at Stutgardt. Baron
DE MERSSENBERG, the Minister of Baden, is also
here. The choice of this city for the conferences is
of importance, as indicating the formation of a third
Customs league. The greatest mystery reigns as to
the deliberations ; the reports that are propagated
are mere presumptions. One thing is certain, that
the existence of the Zollverein is in great jeopardy.
In consequence of the ravages committed by cho-
lera in Pomerania committees have been formed here
for furnishing assistance and relief to the families of
victims. The scourge having cast its venom espe
cially upon the districts
.much inhabited by Jews,
their co-religionists of this place are actively engaged
in procuring subscriptions to be forwarded to the
committee of relief formed at Posen.

The Cassel journals contain an official announce-
ment cf the Finance Minister, stating that the Go-
vernment has concluded a loan of one million and a
half dollars, at 43- per cent., with a sinking fund of
per oPrit , the latter to commence in 1858. The
loan is to be subscribed for at par (100 rix dollars).
No subscriptions under 100 dollars to be permitted.
It is expected that the whole loan will be raised
within the Electorate, or through the medium of
Frankfort houses.

TUSSAUD'S EXHIBITION.

This is certainly one of the very best exhibitions in
the metropolis, abounding, as it does, with such a multi-
tude of objects highly pleasing and intersting to the
visitor. Since the enlargement of the exhibi-
tion, many subjects of interest have been added,
and at the same time greatly improved the whole
appearanco of the establishment and given twofold
interest to the various groups of figures by increase of
space, thereby displaying them to more advantage than
formerly, when they were much too crowded toge-
ther. A new interest, we may say, is here called
forth by the loss of the Great Duke, who is represented
like life, in the costume of an English General ; and, if
this figure alone constituted the whole of the exhibition,
it would well repay the trouble of a visit.
In the first of the new suite of rooms are displayed a
number of portraits, of great personages, and among
them we observed a splendid painting of the Queen,
copied by Sir George Ilayter, by the kind permission
of her Majesty, from the original, at Windsor Castle.
executed by the slme distinguished artist.

OLYMPIC THEATRE.

Uncle Tom's Cabin; or, Negro Life in zhverica,
a drama, in Two acts, fouedeci upon Mrs. H. erriet
Beecher Howe's popular talc, was produced here last
night, and with triumphant success. Enough of , the
story has been reproduced by the adapter to form a
very thrilling and effective drama, which excited b 3 •
turns the sensibilities and the laughter of the audi-
ence. The piece thus produced comprises the sale of
Uncle Tom and Little Harry, the flight of George
and Eliza with [their boy, and the crossing of the
Ohio by the two latter. Haley is transformed into a
planter, and obtains possession of Eliza and Harry at
tne house of Senator. Bird, George also falling into his
hands by means of an advertisement in the Kentucky
Scourge, which gives to any one that may capture
him the right to shoot him or keep him alive for his
trouble. He has ordered him to be tied to a tree, and
Uncle Tom to, give him six dozen lashes, when, lo f
Dei ex =china in the shape of Mr. Shelby (who has
become at once rich and repentant) and of Senator
Bird, who accuses Haley of some such trifling offences
as erg highway robbery, and attempted) mur-
der.f ri'
eThee planter is accordingly removed in cus-
tody, the (slaves are liberated, and universal bliss
reigns in Uncle Tom's cabin and its environs.
The strong and hearty denunciations of the disgust-
ing and immoral practices pursued by the slave-
owners in the southern states were quickly caught
up and enthusiastically cheered by the audience, and
the judicious selection of some of the most striking
events in the story kept the interest unflagging till
the fall of the curtain. Mr. G. Cooke was the hero
of the
blunt-
ness of 4t
serious and affecting the model nigger," with some superadded
piece, and gave us all the heartiness and
fun and drollery, which pleasantly relieved the more
a capital Yankee slagvspeculator, rife of cant and
incidents. Mr. Hoskins made

APPOINTMENTS.

WOOLWICH, JAN. 13.—Clerks—John Curtis (1848),
to the Vengeance, 84, on the Mediterranean station;
Edward H. Stanton (1846), from the Gauges, 84, on the
Mediterranean station, to the Ajax, 58, screw steamship,
at Cork I, to the Britannia, at Fortinowalk ,
fitting for the flag-ship on the Mediterranean station.
The whole of the warrant officers borne on check at
Woolwich for harbour service were examined to-day by
Captain the Hon. Montagu Stopford, acting superinten-
dent, and a board of officers, as to their fitness for service
at sea. The warrant-officers were at the same time
inspected by Dr. a Evans, Senior Deputy-Inspector of
Hospitals and Fleets, and other medical officers, as to the
state of their health, in case they should be called upon
to serve in sea-going ships or steamers.
The Fury steam-sloop, Commander Edward Tatham,
broke two hawsers on Saturday last, owing to the strong
gale which prevailed during the time she was having her
compasses adjusted, but Captain Johnson and her Com-
mander persevered, and had the adjusting of the com-
passes satisfactorily completed on the same day. The
vessel left Greenhithe early on Sunday morning, accom-
panied by the Zephyr steam-vessel, and the engines of the
Fury having been found to work remarkably well, she
brought up at the Nore for the night, and the engineers
of the factory at Woolwich returned in the Zephyr the
same evening.
The Zephyr steam vessel went up to Deptford on
Monday, and brought down the Torch steam-vessel to
Woolwich.

After the Deo steam-troop-ship bad been paid off on
Saturday last, the petty officers and seamen who had
served in the vessel purchased a handsome silver snuff-
box of Mr. Westaway, and ordered the simple words
" H. West, Esq.," to be engraved upon it, and presented
it to their late commander.
The officers of the Dee describe the mode of warfare
at the Cape to be very disheartening to the British sol-
diers, especially those placed on patrol duty. The Kafirs
aro so active and daring that they venture within. twenty
or thirty yards of the patrol and show themselves, but
in a position that they can drop down flat on the ground
the moment they see the musket brought to a level for
firing at them, and in almost every instance escape being
touched by the bullets. The savages then start upon
their feet and run upon the patrols before they have time
to reload, and while the patrols strive to keep the Refire
at a distance with the bayonet, the latter jump about
with the agility of moneys, and close upon the parole,
holding them by their belts while they stub them. The
most serviceable description of muskets to contend with
the Kafirs would be those loading at the breach, as they
would give the soldier more confidence, and avoid his
having to alter the defensive position of the
,bayonet
when loading.

have by this time sounded the death knell of the vii.

TILE PRESERVED MEITS.—PORTSMOUTI, TUESDAY.
—The survey of the Clarence-yard on the preserved
meats still progresses. There is no improvement in the
quality—about ten cases in u hundred prove fit for food.
Some cases of other contractors supplies have also been
opened, and have been found deteriorated; but the con-
tents of the canisters were really beef, and not offal. It
is said that the Admiralty have determined to preserve
meats for the navy at their own establishment.
The Southampton, 50, Captain Cory, remained in St.
Helena's Roads yesterday. The Echo steam-tug took
off a mainyard to her on Monday evening. She crossed
it yesterday morning, and would probably get away
last evening, so as to arrive in the Downs early this
morning. Strong gales with foul weather have prevailed
at Portsmouth for the last three days, and it is very
unsettled.

of the weather and the thin attendance of buyers, we
in a very sluggish state at Monday's quotations. N 7
foreign Wheat has reached us this week, and the shot r,
of samples was comparatively small. Fine dry samplesj
were in good request at prices fully equal to those ob-.,
tained last weak. In low and middling kinds very litth
was doing. Floating cargoes were held at extreme quo• .
tations. Malting Barley was scarce and quite as dear
Grinding and distilling sorts supported late rates. Mal' ;
steady but not dearer. There was a good consumptiv'
demand for Oats at lull quot:tions. Flour was quite a:

ON THE PHILOSOPHY OF MARRIAGE, AND THE SECRET
INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY.
WITH FIFTY COLOURED ENGRAVINGS ON STEEL.
In French, English, German, Dutch, Spanish, and Italian, in a
Sealed Envelope, 2s. 6d., or post-free, for Forty-two Stamps,
SELF-PRESERVATION; an
Analytical Investigation of the Physiology and Functions of
Marriage, in all the bearings in which that important subject affects
the health and happiness of Man,with its Disqualifications and Impe-
diments, tracing their origin to the effects of juvenile solitary habits,
youthful excess, tropical climates, or close study ; followed by prac-
tical remarks, founded on twenty years' experience in the treatment
of Impuissance, Nervous Debility, Local Weakness, Spermatorrhoia,
Syphilis, and all diseases of the Urinary and Generative System. Il-
lustrated by 50 coloured Engravings, on the Anatomy of the Repro-
ductive Organs and their relative conditions in Health and Disease.
By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.,
37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin-
burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful
consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which
have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment
adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated
schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe.
The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under
the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few
legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un-
divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short,
every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental
to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and
ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation
of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distieguished medical
and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient
guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care
will, In every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and
inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these
cases.

PLAN FOR STOPPING RAILWAY TRAINS.--Mr. J.
F. Wachter, civil engineer, of Rotterdam, has designed a
plan to prevent railway trains from running off the rails,
and for stopping them instantaneously. It consists of two
distinct parts—first, a third or middle rail, with guides, the
object of which is to prevent the carriages running off the
line ; and secondly, a set of brakes which come into opera-
tion all at once on every carriage of the train, by turning a
screw either on the locomotive or on the tender. The two
parts (he says) may be applied separately, but he has com-
bined them both, as both the objects to be attained are of
equal importance.
FATAL ACCIDENT AT PUTNEY-BRIDGE.—On Sun-
day, between the hours of eleven and twelve o'clock, an out-
rigger boat with four persons in her was in the act of passing
through the centre arch of Putney-bridge, when, from some
cause unexplained at present, the boat came athwart one of
the wooden piers, and was instantly capsized. The four
young men were immersed in very deep water, it being
nearly high tide and running very strong. Three of the occu-
pants of the boat could swim well, and succeeded in righting
the boat and rowing to shore, but the unfortunate one who
was drowned, could not swim, and sank instantly. Great
efforts were made by both the Fulham and Putney Water-
men to recover the body by use of the drags, but they were
not successful until between nine and ten o'clock yesterday
Morning, when he was found near the spot where he sank.

NICARAGUA.

SAN JUAN DEL NORTE,_ SEPT. 1.-011 the evening
the 19th the Prefect of Granada was aroused from
18 bed by an express from Leon, stating that Munoz,
with a large number of French and Americans, had
ticen that city, and were marching upon Managua,
e seat of government.
The Prefect immediately dispatched one hundred
4i fifty men and four pieces of artillery for the pro-
retion of Managua. On the 22d Munoz was at Realejo.
,Lon being in his hands, great excitement prevails,
Government impressing every stray citizen into
bile ranks of the army.
I,The movements of a certain mysterious French
'tarquis who displayed unbounded wealth, and seemed
tssessed of universal knowledge in Granada, taken
t Father with certain confidential disclosures made to
lady, leads many to suppose that the French Go-
1, I,!.rnment are connected with this appearance of
Vlueoz for the ship Le Brilliant is at Realejo, and
his Marquis has exhibited a letter from the French
dmiral in the Pacific stating that six or seven ships
Itould be sent down immediately.
