REPRESENTATION OF OXFORDSHIRE.—It seems
possible that there will be a contest for the representation
of this county, vacant by the death of Mr. G. Harcourt.
Sir IL W. Dashwood, of KirtlingtGn-park, near Bicester,
has been in the field for several days past in the Liberal in-
terest, but the Conservatives, being anxious of securing a
third member of their own vieNl s, have sent a requisition to
Colonel Fane, of Wormley, to allow himself to be put in
nomination. His decison has not yet transpired.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]-1-lolloway's Ointment and Pills.—
A lways wanted.—Every man, woman, and child endures a
certain amount of sickness during life—for the abbreviation
of which Holloway's medicaments were propounded, and
admirably have they effected their purpose. They are easy,
safe, and certain. They shorten the sufferings and lengthen
the lives of the sick. The ointment is not only useful in
outward injuries, sores, and blemishes, but when well
rubbed upon the skin it penetrates internally, and acts most
wholesomely on the internal organs, both as regards their
nutrition and secretion. Whether the complaint be gene-
ral or local, Holloway's ointment and pills invariably prove
beneficial. They purify the blood, and regulate all erro-
neous action, whereby the whole constitution is greatly
henefittecl,

We have received news of the safe arrivt4.et

Australasian. The Australasian took out''frfiti,
Liverpool the Ist battalion of the Rifle Brikidgi
numbering 40 officers and 833 non-commissioned
officers and rank and file, including an hospital
corps of 29 men. She had also on board seven
officers and 254 men of the Royal Artillery,
together with a battery of six Armstrong guns,
with their whole train, consisting of 16 carriages.
The Australasian also carried out 6,000 stand of
arms, in addition to those borne by the troops,
together with4oo,ooo rounds of ball cartridb. The
Rifle battalion went out under the command of Lord
Alexander Russell, brother of Earl Russell, and
among the officers of the corps were Major the Hon.
J. Stuart, whose brother is already with Lord
Lyons at Washington, as one of his attaches; Cap-
tain Lord A. Clinton, brother of the Duke of New-
castle; Lieutenant Lord Edward Cavendish, son of
the Duke of Devonshire ; Lieutenant the Hon. F.
Somerville, Lieutenant the Hon. A. Pennington, and
Ensign Lord Albert Cecil. The Peisia embarked
the Ist battalion of the 16th Regiment of Foot,
from Sheffield and Weedon, and a detachment con-
sisting of four officers and 118 men of the Royal
Engineers, under the command of Captain Mag-
nay. The 16th consisted of 36 officers and 823
men, besides an hospital corps of 45 men belong-
ing to the battalion, under command of Colonel
Peacock. Besides those above enumerated
t4Pre were also 70 men of the Commissariat Staff
)8. General Russell, with two aides-de-camp,
also on board, together with the Deputy-Assis-
tant Commissary-General Festing, and Mr. Thorn,
of the Military Store Staff. 4
The Australasian encountered a severe snow
storm on the 23d and 24th, near Anticosti, and it
was, in consequence, considered prudent to put
back to Halifax, vitae she arrived on the 26th.

ThE WESTERN DEFENCES AT
PLYMOUTH.

The huge works at Tregantle are gradually ap-
proaching completion. Those who have travelled
on the Cornwall Railway know that the line is
carried for the four or five miles from Saltash to
St. Germans along the banks of Lynher, and for the
defence of this river the Screasdon fort is in course
of construction. By the Lynher, or St. Germans
river, running as it does to the Hamoaze, a penin-
sula is formed, the neck of which from the river to
the shores of the Channel in Whitsand Bay, is
about two miles in breadth, and it is across this
that the new forts are in course of construction,
Screasdon on the river, and Tregantle on the sea
side. Tregantle, by far the most formidable, is about
400 feet above the level of the sea; on one side the
blue waves of the English Channel break in cease-
less surges upon the sands of Whitsand Bay; on the
other are the fields and cultivated land lying be-
tween the fort and the river; and facing the fort
is that hive of busy bees, Devonport dockyard,
from which Tregantle is about 6,000 yards distant ;
the men-of-war at anchor in Hamoaze, and the
steam factory of Keyham are also within command.
The advantages of Tregantle as a position of de-
fence, with regard to Plymouth and the Govern-
ment works at Devonport, are seen at a glance.
The guns to be mounted will be of the heaviest
metal, and will command every conceivable ap-
proach to the harbour. Thick parapets of earth, of
great solidity, support the batteries, and the prin-
cipal work is protected by a deep ditch, the escarp
and count erscarp being walled with heavy masonry.
The barracks are protected by the battery, and are
replete with every arrangement requisite to secure
the comfort of the soldiery. The walls are of great
thickness, and notwithstanding the fact that we
live in a day of improved and long-range artillery,
from the size of the blocks of which the barrack
walls are constructed, they appear sufficiently mas-
sive and strong to withstand any ordinary bombard-
ment. They aie situated in the rear of the artifi-
cial glacis, where the natural formation of the hill
necessitated its being thrown up, and, being upon
a lower level than the battery, are efficiently pro-
tected by artillery. The large piles of bricks in
and around the fortifications indicate that the bar-
racks, the water tanks, the stable, and, in fact,
every room, are intended to be bomb proof, through
the means of very thick arches. The Keep, an
immense and apparently very strong mass of ma-
sonry, stands between the battery and the barracks.
It will mount two tiers of guns, the upper elevation
surmounting the fort itself, and commanding the
country, whilst the lower range is casemated,
Although the highest point of the fort is at a dis-
tance of about 2,000 feet from the cliff which over-
looks Whitsand Bay, the arrangements of the
engineer will render it impossible to pass between
the fort and the sea. To effect this essential object
the ground in front of the fort has been cleared of
all irregularities. IN here mounds have interposed a
surface to obstruct the fire they have been reduced
to a level, and the hollows have been filled up.
Thus have the many acres in front of the fort been
made to form an incline, which in case of attack
would be swept by guns in the recesses of the fort.
The conduct of the works is under the immediate
superintendence of Colonel Owen, C. 8., of the Royal
Engineers. The erection of these fortifications gives
employment to a great number of labourers and
masons, who, in their wooden shanties, enjoy them-
selves in the eventide of winter, each after his own
fashion, amid the wind and cold inseparable from
this bleak and exposed part of old Cornubia.—

THE ARRIVAL OF A FEDERAL WAR
STEAMED A. 7 SOUTHAMPTON.

SOUTHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY.

The Tuscarora, one of the new screw corvettes
built for the Federal navy, arrived in the river this
afternoon, about half-past 3 o'clock, from New
York. She left that port on the 15th ult., and had
a very rough passage across the Atlantic, and put
into Fayal for coals, sailing thence eight days since.
From Fayal she has had fine weather. The Tus-
carora is commanded by Captain T. Augustus
Craven, and her officers and crew number about 200
in all. She mounts nine heavy guns, two of them
the famous 11-inch columbiads (both on pivots), six
broadside guns, and a rifled Parrot gun on the fore-
castle. The corvette is a smart-looking vessel, of
1,200 tons burden, and barque-rigged. She is just
built, and only arrived at New York from Philadel-
phia on the 9th ult.
It is understood that her mission in these waters
is specially to look after the Nashville, and gene-
rally to protect the interests of Federal shipping.
The Nashville remains in dock and her future move-
ments are of course kept profoundly secret. She is
coaled and ready for sea, and it was rumoured this
morning that she was going out of dock during the
day into the river, but up to this time (5 p.m.) she
is lying quietly in her berth. Whether she will
now, keep her quarters, a close prisoner, keenly
watched by the Tuscarora, until the conflict is over,
or whether on some favourable opportunity she will
venture to " run the blockade" and escape, time
only can determine.

By desire of the Emperor Napoleon the founda-
tion of a chair of homoeopathic medicine at the faculty of
Paris has again been brought forward. The medical curl s
has however so energetically pronounced itself several times
against this system, that it is hardly likely the Government
will dare to oppose that body very strenuously.
CENSUS OF RomE.—The census of the present
population of Rome shows an increase of 10,500 inhabitants
over the preceding year. The number amounts to
191,587 ; in 1852 it was only 175,( 00, being an augmen'
tation of 20,000 in less than 10 years. There are
in Rome nearly 40,003 families; 40 bishops; 1,385
priests ; 2,474 monks ; 1,657 pupils at the schools for young
men destined for the priesthood ; 2,032 nuns, and 2,613
pupils in convents and orphan aryl 's• Rome possesses
