SCOTTISH HOSPITAL

A general quarterly court of the governors of this
institution was held yesterday at the hospital. Dr.
Webster presided. It was reported, from the com-
mittee of relief, that the following sums had been
granted to petitioners at the several monthly meet-
logs :-1561., 1551. 4s. 2d., and 1521. O. 2d. The
committee of accounts reported that the balance on
the 29th of September last was as follows :—Dr.
Balance in hand at the beginning of the year, 26C/. ;
donations, 5751.; proceeds of bell, 3061 ; annual sub-
scriptions, 364/. ; rents, bcc., 1,3636 Cr. Charity in
money, 1,7751.; passages, 131.; salaries, annuity,
poundage, &c., 2831: repairs 9 all., purohs of house,
600/. ; expenses, 1351.; balance in bank, 37/. 9s. 41.
A special committee, appointed at the last quarterly
court to take into consideration a suggestion thrown
out in a late number of Chambers's Journal, reported
as follows :—" Your committee are of opinion that
the benevolence of the friends of the Scottish poor
may be further excited by following the suggestion
contained in Chambers's Journal, No. 442, so as to
enlarge the operations of the corporation. That indi-
viduals or bodies should be at liberty to endow pensions
of fixed amount, from 51. and upwards, on contribut-
ing sums aufficient,wben invested, toinsure the pensions.
That the said investment should bear, if desired, the name
of the individual or body so contributing, or any other
approved nomination. The donors to be allowed the
nomination during their lives, from a list submitted
by the committee. Your committee consider also
that the very generous proposition of his Grace the
Duke of Sutherland should be gratefully accepted by
the court, and that the endowment should begin to
take effect twelve months after the payment of the
second instalment, and that the recipient should be
called the Duke of Sutherland's pensioner. Your
committee venture to hope that not only individuals,
but public bodies, and even counties, may be induced
to take part in this new system of benevolence."
Major Adair, the secretary, stated that as soon as the
suggestion in Chambers's was brought to the know-
ledge of the Duke of Sutherland, he immediately
offered to endow the first pensioner.—(hear, hear.)
It was resolved that the report should be entered on
the minutes, and a copy sent to each governor, and
that it should be especially brought before the go-
vernors at their next court. Major Adair stated
that, in compliance with the instructions he had re-
ceived at the last meeting, he had written to Lord
John Russell, soliciting the honour of his presiding
at their next anniversary dinner, and his Lordship
had consented to do so.—(Hear, hear.) Lord Pan-
inure had also promised to attend, should he he in the
country at the time. They had already obtained a
long list of stewards, embracing nearly thirty Mem-
bers of both Houses of Parliament.—(Hear, hear.)
The meeting then adjourned, after a vote of thanks
to the chairman.

ELECTRIC. TELEGRAPEIS.
To-day Mr. Reid tried another series of interesting
experiments on the South-Western Railway, similar to
that he performed at Dover on the 3d instant—one instru-
ment and battery being placed in the Admiralty, Whitehall,
and the other in the Portsmouth Dock-yard, distance in
round numbers, one hundred miles.
Several messages were sent to and from the Admiralty and
the Dockyard by the miniature battery with perfect success.
This battery was then removed, and the pieces of silver and
zinc were then introduced into the mouth of the operator,
and a message sent from London to Portsmouth, and repeated
back correctly.

There were present in the Admiralty Colonel Wylde, C. 8.,
and Mr. Wylde, jun. At the Portsmouth Dockyard were
Sir Thomas Briggs, his secretary, and others. The experi-
ments were previously witnessed by Captain Hamilton of the
Admiralty, Mr. Dyer, &c.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

The question which has so long interested the fashionable
world," When will the Opera open?" now receives a satis-
factory answer. The opening night is fixed for the 25th
inst., that time being selected to correspond, ns nearly as
possible, with the closing of the " Italiens" at Paris, where
Mademoiselle Cruvelli has achieved such brilliant triumphs.
This distinguished vocalist, whose success was the great
feature last year, will likewise be prima donna this season,
together with Madame Sontag and Mademoiselle Joanna
Wagner, the German "star," who is said to have taken
the place of Jenny Lind at Berlin. Ferlotti, known as a
singer and tragic actor, and the baritone Bassini are also
im-
portant among the new engagements. The principal
danseuses at the opening of the season will be Mademoiselle
Rosati and Madame Guy Stephan, and the lead will after-
wards be taken by Cerito. Further arrangements
present unknown, but the names of the are at
threeffianineedoofnnnoe
are a sufficient guarantee that the season will be
ordinary interest.

ladies dancing was extremely graceful, and fully merited the
complimental applause which it drew fortb.Tfie dancing of Mr.
Forrest is good in some things, but there is a great fault very
predominant, viz,, an anxie yto do too much. If he would
but abstain from this glaring defect, he would be, for a young
man, a very excellent dancer. With the performance of Mr.
Edwards we were much pleased ; it was exceedingly clever,
and deserved all the applause it received. There were some
very prettily-arranged dances executed by tke mpg de ballet,
which, together with the excellent music and beautifully,-
painted scenery, contributed in no small degree to the perfect
success of the ballet. The house was very fully and fashion-
ably attended.

FOR GENERAL ASSURANCE ON LWES.
13, WATERLOO-PLACE, LONDON.

Assurances arc granted upon the lives of persons in every profes-
sion and station in life, and for every part of the world, with the ex-
ception of the Western Coast of Africa within the Tropics.
Vit-,4ates of Premiums are constructed upon sound principles with
r
at to every colony, and, by payment of a moderate addition to
the me Vtrpmium, in case of increase of risk, persons assured in
thice may change from one climate to another without forfeiting
their policies.
Four-fifths of the Profits are divided amongst the Assured.
_ .

The circumstances of the Society, on the occasion of the Second
Septennial Divison of Profits, in the year 1851 warranted the ap-
portionment of a very liberal Bonus.

FRANCE.

The Siècle notices a rumour that has been current for
some time past of its being the intention of the Govern-
ment to suppress the octroi duties, and expresses itself
very decidedly in favour of such a measure, but only on
the condition of its being effected without imposing any
new burthen upon the tax-payers. The calculation of
the Sack, 80 millions of francs per annum, is an exag-
gerated one, bat the amount produced by the octroi
duties is very large. It is a tax which presses with pe-
culiar hardship on the working classes, is vexatious
and annoying to all classes, and is attended with
enormous expense in the collection. Some months
ago, a reduction of the army was spoken of as the
surest and best means of supplying the deficit that would
be occasioned by the abolition of the present octroi
duties; but at the present moment there appears to be
little prospect of this being accomplished. It is asserted
in the best circles that the PRESIDENT of the Republic
is really desirous of diminishing the military budget;
but to do this not only is time required for the perfect
re-establishment of order in France on such a footing
that no new outbreak would be possible, bat all the
foreign powers must consent to a reduction of their
armies so as to leave France so comparatively as strong
with a small as with a large army. It has also been pro-
posed to establish a more liberal system of customs
trariffs so as to cause increased consumption in France,
and consequently augment the produce of the customs;
but at least three or four years must be given to this
experiment, and a positive source of revenue connot be
abolished for an experiment which, however successful,
c
could not be immediately productive. The Sikh: says
it is proposed to supply the deficit which the abolition
of the octroi duties would occasion by an additional tax
upon rents, and perhaps a tax upon the minimum of
rent (2001. per annum and under), which has hitherto
escaped taxation; but that, bad as is the principle
of the octroi tax, it had better be suffered to
continue, than to increase an already oppres-
sive burthen on another branch of the revenue.

We read in the Pressej:—" M. A. DE GOBINEAU, first
attache of the French Legation at Berne, who arrived
in Paris a few days ago, has returned to his post with
dispatches which attest, we are told, the notable changes
that have taken place in the views of the French Go-
vernment."

" It appears certain," says the Bulletin de Paris," that
General CAvAIGNAc will refuse the Legislative man-
date recently conferred upon him by a part of the elec-
tors of Paris."

thung of Denmark on the 6th, on the motion for taking
into consideration the draft of an address to the KING
on the state of affairs, drawn up by three of the Mem-
bers. The address manifests want of confidence in the
Danish Ministry, and expresses dissatisfaction at the
arrangements that have been come to respecting the
organization of the Monarchy. On a division, it was
decided by a majority of 84 to 4 that the address should
be taken into.conrideration, with a view of referring it
to a committee.

GERMANY.

Second Chamber of Prussia was engaged on
the 16th in discussing whether or not they should
receive a petition praying for the revision of the Con-
ttitution. , The Chamber determined by a majority
of 147 to 121 to pass to the order of the day. Great
Fears are entertained of 3 coup d'etut abolishing the
Constitution. Oa this subject the Kreuss Zeitung
says:-- . _

We hear it asserted that for the restoration of the
Monarchy nothing is necessary but the abolition of the
Chambers. It is said the King must again govern alone.
Certainly, we wish it also; but as the King cannot reign
alone everywhere, the question is another, namely, with
whom and through whom is he to govern—with the
Chambers and officials or by the officials alone? We
are not able, unfortunately, to write in eulogy of the
Prussian official class and its political conduct in general,
and feel no particular desire to surrender at discretion
to the domination of the Bureaucracy. Were the Cham-
bers much worse than they are, we could not give them
up for this reason, that they form a counter-balance to
the all-powerful Bureaucracy; and if the Chambers
passed yet worse laws than they have done, we must yet
declare that every law has come out of the Chamber much
Letter than it went in, and we should have been much
worse off had the laws, as drawn up by the officials, re-
ceived the Royal sanction without the interpo-
sition of the Legislature. Faulty as is the composi-
tion of the Cb ambers, yet we must recognise them at
this moment as the best possible representation of the
country, and we have not yet seen any practical plan
proposed how they are to be improved. To throw away
what sr e have before we get anything better, is not a
policy to be recommended, especially as the Crown, at
this: time, should cherish and spare nothing so much as
those institutions through which it is brought into
connexion with the people."
The same journal also contains the following para-
graph :
" The police yesterday prepared us the surprise of an
official search in our printing-office, to discover, as we
heard afterwards, some papers of the so-called Guten-
burg Society, supposed to be in the possession of one
of our compositors. Till now we had always believed
that our printing-office, and all it contained did not be-
long' to our compositors, but to us, and that we, there-
fore, had a right before such a search was undertaken
to be apprized of it by the production of a written order.
Unhappily experience is not now for the first time our
teacher, and, therefore, nothing remains for us but to
express our doubts as to the legality of the measure in
the proper quarter."

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY
A very limited supply of English Wheat, chiefly out
of condition, was on sate in to-day's market. Although
the attendance of millers was small, the demand was
steady, and a good clearance was effected at fully Mon-
day's advance in the quotations. The imports of
Foreign Wheat this week have been only 2,200 quarters.
Good dry qualities, ex granary, moved off freely, at
extreme currencies, whilst the value of low and mid•
tiling kinds was well supported. In floating cargoes
very little was dciog. We were rather scantily supplied
with Barley, for which the inquiry ruled firm, at very
full prices. Malt changed hands steady, at late rates.
The quantity ready for delivery was by no means ex-
tensive. The Oat trade was firm, and, in some instances,
Irices were the turn in favour of sellers. Beans, Peas,
ndian Corn, and Flour were quite as dear as on
londay.
