PRUSSIA AND AUSTRIA.

The Prussia papers devote long articles to the
question of constitutional reform which has arisen
between Austria and the so-called Wurzbourg Coali-
tion (Bavaria, Wurtemberg, Hanover, Saxony,
Hesse-Darmstadt, and Nassau) and Prussia.
The National Zeitung of Berlin says :
" The most easy part of the work has been done. A
suitable reply has been sent to :the insolence of Austria
and of the Wurzbourg Governments. Doubtless it is no
great thing for a military State to put down a miserable
diplomatic demonstration like that which has just been
made. That demonstration was so miserable and shameful
that if the Minister of Foreign Affairs had at once sent
their passports to all the Envoys whose Governments took
part in it, it would have served them right. Prussia is not
sunk so low as to allow herself to be led by the nose by
MM. Schmerling, Rechberg, and Co. That fine company
has dared to ask Prussia her opinion on the best possible
reform for the Federal Constitution. They knew very well
what the reply would be, and, after having received it,
they deliberate for six weeks, and then issue a protest
against views which were given at their own request.
The people and all friends of Prussia will approve
the Government for having treated this miserable attack
with contempt. Let Prussia at once recognise the King of
Italy. We owe no respect to Austria ; that respect which
we have hitherto shown her is put down as weakness, and
has encouraged these insolent attacks. The Wurzbourg
Governments have fancied that Prussia is weak ; she must,
therefore, show herself stronger than they imagine. Let
her recognize Italy, and then they will say that Prussia is
a State with which it is advisable to remain on good terms.
If our Government has not sufficient moral strength to do
this they will console themselves for the diplomatic check
they have just received; the Berlin Note of the 14th of
February will not hurt them, as they will remain convinced
that Prussia dare not do anything disagreeable to them,
and that at the utmost she can only say a few harsh words
to them."

General le Comte and Madame Hermansdorff
have left the Brunswick Hotel, Jermyn-street, for Paris,
i
on their way to Ciormauy.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKEL

To-day's market was but moderately supplied with beasts;
nevertheless, all breeds moved off heavily, at barely Mon.
day's currency. The highest quotation for Scota was 4s
8d per 81ba. Sheep—the supply of which was limited—
were very dull. In prices, however, no change took place.
The best Downs realised 5s 6d per 81bs. There was rather
an active inquiry for lambs, at from 7s 4d to 7s 8d per 81bs.
We had a slow sale for calves, at about previous rates. Pigs
and mulch cows moved off heavily, at barely stationary
prices.

stitute an ens
the part of the spectator a good deal of
good nature to induce him to admit the
representation. M. Foucault proceeds on an-
truth of the
traditional
plan. Instead of thesides scenes represent-
(?theorld trees or rocks, and intended to limit the extent of
the back back scene, instead also of the strips of canvass used as
a bad imitation of air and clouds, he employs a large canvas
itca"grmeclautijorninagnodn
surface representing a panoramic view of the sky, the end
of which is not perceptible in any direction either from the
side-boxes or orchestra. All side-scenes are done au ay with
and the landscve thus acquires its full effect. One of his
scenes represents, for instance, a view of the Desert of Sa-
hara. Here, as far as the eye can reach, we see nothing but
an interminable plain of sand bounded by the sky ; and to
i ender the contrast mom striking, a date tree and plants of
aloes decorate the very centre of the scene, while, according
to the old syst,-zn, these plants would have had their place
assigned to them right and left. Nor are N.. Foucault's
skies invariable. He makes clouds float above at pleasure,
masses them together for a storm, and dissolves them for
the return of fair weather with the greatest ease. This
invention presents itself at a propitious moment for Paris,
where several new theatres h .ve just been erected, and
more are expected to follow.—Galignani.

THE ARMY.

Yesterday detachments of cavalry and infantry,
to the number of upwards of 100 men of all ranks,
belonging to regiments serving in India and the co-
lonies, were discharged the service at St. Mary's in-
valid establishment, Chatham, in conformity with
an order to that effect received from the Horse
Guards, the whole of them having been previ-
ously inspected by the Commissioners of Chelsea
Hospital, and found unfitted for further service. The
troops who received their diacharge belonged to the
3d Dragoon Guards, 7th Dragoon Guards, 6th Dra-
goons, 7th Hussars, 18th Hussars, 2d Royals, 6tb,
7th Fusiliers, 10th, 13th Prince Albert's Light In-
fantry, 18th Royal Irish, 21st Fusiliers, 23d Royal
Welsh Fusiliers, 25th King's Own Borderers, 46th,
51st King's Own Light Infantry, 55th, 56th, 60th
Rifles, 61st, 64th, 67th, 71st and 72d Highlanders,
81st, 83d, 89th, 91st, 92d Highlanders, 94th, 97th,
98th, 99th, 106th, and the Rifle Brigade Regiments.
In addition to the above, 30 men of the 28th, 68th
Light Infantry, 69th and 99th Regiments, left
Chatham garrison yesterday and proceeded to join
the depots of their respective regiments at Fermoy
and Cork.

A notification was yesterday received at Chatham
from the War Department announcing that the
Secretary of State for War has been pleased to direct
that all persons employed in the Civil Service be-
longing to all departments of the service connected
with the War Department of the United Kingdom,
are to be granted two days' leave of absence, with
pay, for the purpose of enabling them to visit the
International Exhibition. In cases where the dis-
tance from London is too great to allow of two days
being sufficient for the visit the leave of absence is
to be extended. The order directs it to be distinctly
understood that this concession is not to entail upon
the public any travelling or other expenses, and that
leave is to be obtained at such times as will be least
inconvenient to the wants of the service.

An order has been received at Chatham garrison
from the Horse Guards for the presentation of sil-
ver medals and gratuities, awarded by the Duke of
Cambridge, to the following non-commissioned offi-
cers of the Royal Engineers, for long service and
exemplary conduct :—Colour-Sergeant T. Duckett,
medal and £l5 ; and Colour-Sergeant James Camp-
bell, medal and £lO.
A most deplorable occurrence took place yester-
day morning in Woolwich Arsenal, under the fol-
lowing circumstances :—A number of men belong-
ing to the Royal Carriage Department were engaged
in stacking plates of iron used in the construction of
platforms and traversing slides for gun-carriages,
when a man named Joseph Copley, in assisting to
form the stack, found the sleeve of his coat adhering
to a corner of one of the plates. in the attempt he
made to extricate himself, the plates, which are
about 16 feet long, 8 inches broad, and a quarter of
an inch thick, and weigh about 201 b each, fell on
him from the stack and crushed him to death.

MARK LANE.

The supply of English wheat on sale here this morning,
though small, was somewhat larger than on the last few
market days. Owing to the favourable change in the
weather, there was decidedly less firmness in the trade, and
Monday's quotations were barely supported.
The show of foreign wheat was tolerably extensive, and
the demand was in a sluggish state on rather easier terms
for inferior qualities.
Floating cargoes of grain were in moderate request at
late currencies.

The trade for barley ruled steady, and prices were fairly
maintained. _ ._

Malt changed hands to a fair average extent at full quo-

tations,

Good and fine oats moved off steadily at quite previous
rates ; otherwise the oat trade was dull on former terms.
Beans and peas were disposed of at the extreme prices of
Monday. The supply on offer was small.
The flour trade was steady. In the quotations no change
took place.

withered as to deprive him permanently of the use
the limb. The lad, at the suggestion of the
learned judge, exhibited his arm to the jury, and
they seemed greatly astonished at the decayed ap-
pearance which it presented.
...Mr. Tatum, surgeon, of St. George's Hospital,
said a perfect cure had been effected so far as healing
the wound was concerned; but the arm was chroni-
cally disabled. Tight bandaging might produce
" slonwhing," but the opinion he formed of the case
when Le saw it was that there had been no exces-
sive pressure on the arm.
Mr. Chapman, Mr. Jones, and Mr. Borlase Childs,
and other .medical men were also called on behalf
of the plaintiff, but their evidence went rather to
disprove the- charge of negligence and want of
proper skill on the part of the defendant.
The Lord Chief Buren said that in his judgment,
in point of law, .a person chargrd in a
with being the ca.ase of a certain mischief ought to
be dietinctly proved to have been the cause of it,
and that the accusation should not be treated as a
mere matter of speculation or opinion.
Mr. Garth submitted that roe case had been made
out. public court

The Lord Chief Baron said it was a question for
the jury,
The jury consulted tog ether, and the foreman
said they had great compass Jon nr the boy, but
they did not think there bald been any negligence
proved against the defendant.
Mr. Seymour said after that intimation he would
not seek to continue the trial,
The Lord Chief Barou—l must say, Mr. Sey-
mour, you always do your duty.
Mr. Seymour said he certainly felt it his duty
not to press the case when he could not honestly
ask for a verdict for his client.

Mr. Hawkins said the defendant held a great
number of public appointments, and he was anxious
to have the matter fu:.ly investigated, in order to
clear his professional character.
The Lord Chief Baron—l do not know what
more you want.
Mr. Hawkins said there were a considerable
number of medical men of eminence whom defen-
dant desired to call.

Mr. Seymonr said he would relieve the Court
from any further trouble by consenting to a nonsuit.
A nonsuit was entered accordingly.
The Court was occupied during the remainder of
the day with the case of Homes v. Champneys, which
was an action for breach of contract with regard to
the sale of a medical and surgical business at Slough.
The details were wholly devoid of public interest.

SCENE is at present engaged at the Palais de l'ln-
PAINTING.—M. Foucault, the well-known
learned optician.,
series of experiments tending to effect a revolu-
tionf scenic decoration. Under the present sys-
biancak scene and a certain number of side scenes con-
stitute an ensamble representing a landscape, forest, garden,,
requiring on the part of the spectator a good deal of
imagination and good nature to induce him to admit the
truth of the representa'ion. Foucault proceeds on an-
the art o
oeiplan. Instead of the traditional sides scenes represent-
el as r
ai e
represent-
ing old trees or rocks, and intended to limit the extent of
the back scene, instead also of the sti ips of canvass used as
a bad imitation of air and clouds, he employs a large canvas
surface representing a panoramic view of the sky, the end
of which is not perceptible in any direction either from the
side-boxes or orchestra. All side scenes are done away with
and the landscape thus acquires its full effect. One of his
scenes represents, for instance, a view of the Desert of Sa-
hara. Here, as far as the eye can reach, we see nothing but
an interminable plain of sand bounded by the sky ; and to
tender the contrast more striking, a date tree and plants of
aloes decorate the very centre of the scene, while, according
to the old system, these plants would have had their place
assigned to them right and left. Nor are N. Foucault,s,
skies invariable. Ho makes clouds float above at
pleasure
masses them together for a storm, and dissolves them for
_
the return of fair weather with the greatest ease. This
invention presents itself at a propitious moment for i
where several new theatres h,ve just been erected: and
a
more are expected to follow.—Ga/i9na2fi•

on any other day, the Tartar Government officials were
supplied with arms, ammunition, and military stores frtan
the arsenal at Hong Kong ; whether these munitions of war
were sold to the Tartar Government or were a gift ; whether,
on the evacuation of Canton by the allies, many hundreds
of prisoners in the gaols, amongst whom were the mother
ana some relatives of the Taeping Emperor, were handed
over to the Tartar Governor ?

Mr. LAYARD said that her Majesty's Government had
not received any information from China up to the 28th of
April last, and therefore he could not tell his honourable
and gallant friend whether any such supply of military
munitions had taken place. Any munitions of war not re-
quired by her Majesty's Government might be sold to the
Chinese Government at cost price. V/itil regard to the last
question, he believed that no persons were imprisoned in
Canton inlconsequence of their connection with the allies.
THE FORTIFICATION BILL.
In reply to Sir S. NORTHCOTE,
Sir G. LEWIS said that he thought he ought to supply
the house with the earliest and fullest information in
his power with regard to this bill. He would take
care to lay on the table to-morrow the accounts of
the expenditure which had been incurred, and which he
believed had been circulated amongst the members of the
house already. As regarded the bill he proposed to proceed
with the second reading on Monday.
TRANSFER OF LAND BILL.
The house then went into committee on this bill.
Clauses up to 112 were agreed to, after a short discussion,
with some amendments.
On clause 113, which related to the appointment of ex-
aminers of titles under the provision of the bill, a discussion
arose, in the course of which it was contended by the oppo-
nents of the clause, that persons appointed to such offices
should have special knowledge of conveyancing as an in-
dispensable guarantee of their efficiency.
In reply to this and other exceptions to the previsions of
the bill,
The SOLICITOR. GENERAL said it was impossible to
say at present what would be the extent of the establishment
that would be required to carry out the provisions of the bill.
The establishment would be supported by fees which would
be paid into the consolidated fund, and checks were imposed
to prevent the appointment of unnecessary officers or the
incurring of extravagant expenditure.
The clause was agreed to.

Certain other clauses were postponed, the remaining ones
were agreed to, and the Chairman reported progress.
The house next resolved itself into a committee on the
Declaration of Title Bill. Some of the clauses of this mea-
sure were postponed, the others were agreed to, and the
Chairman reported progress.
The Petroleum Bill and the Harbours Transfer Bill
passed through committee.
The house was counted out at five minutes past eight
o'clock.

REPEAL OF THE HOP. DUTIRS.

A public dinner in celebration of the repeal of the
hop duties was held yesterday evening, in the Eng-
lish refreshment department of the International
Exhibition. A. J. B. Beresford Hope, Esq., pre-

sided ; and we noticed amongst those present the
following noblemen and gentlemen :—Lord Harry
Vane, M.P., Viscount Holmesdale, M.P., Viscount
Pevensey, M.P., Sir B. Bridges, Bart., M.P., Sir

the field ; but this association had the merit of draw_
ing into the
CentralAsscciation those who would not
join the Sussex Association. But they were not
here to-night to make comparisons, but to shake
hands, and congratulate themselves on the victory
that they had achieved. He then bore testimony
to the determined manner in which the members
of the association, putting aside all political con-
siderations, had supported the repeal of these duties.
He trusted that notwithstanding the successes of
the hop-growers, they would be cautious, and it
was then quite on the cards that this might become
a hop-exporting country. He concluded by pointing
out the eminent services which Mr. Kintrea had
rendered the association, and by associating with
the toast the name of Mr. Dodson.

Mr. DODSON responded, tendering his thanks to
those members of Parliament who had supported
him in securing a repeal of the hop duties. He

been rAi,ing £1,200,000 this year for forts, when
they could not but know that the revenue must so
largely fail them.

We will not now re-enter upon the general cha-
racter of the best defences for the country. We
have seen or heard nothing whatever to rebut the
position chosen by even the Government men in
the last evidence taken by the commissioners, that
whatever the utility of forts there can be no ques-
tion that ships ought to come first. No one can
doubt that, in the event of a war, they must be
wanted. Without going more into detail, there-
fore, here, the obvious conclusion is that the forts
can well afford to wait, since they are second to the
ships, on which we are spending and have spent
money enough. We hope the Government, there-
fore, will have the moral courage to come forward
with the avowal that the altered opinions and the
altered circumstances of the country—we should
add, and the facts which have recently come to
light—require an entire suspension of the fortifica-
tion scheme. Such an announcement of repentance
would be far more honourable than proud official
obstinacy.
