SARDINIA.

A letter from Bellinzoaa of the .23d, in the Par-
lament° of Turin, states that during the discussion
on the partial reform of the Constitution in the
Grand Council of Ticino, M. Luvini proposed the
appointment of a committee for a thorough revision
of the Constitution. M. Airoldi moved, by -way of
amendment, that the people should be consulted
as to the propriety of convoking a Constituent
Assembly. This amendment was rejected. It was
believed the opposition would abstain from taking
a part in the partial reform, on the ground that
the Grand Council cannot reform itself when the
people demand a Constituent Assembly.

THE RUSSIAN LOSS AT INKERMAN.

(Front Spener's Gazette.)

As regards the losses of the beaten army the dif-
ferent reports dissent considerably from each other. The
Russian reports gives them at 3,000 killed and 5,900
wounded. General Canrebert estimates them at between
8,000 and 10,000 ; and Lord Raglan assures usthat 5,000
Russian dead or severely wounded were found on the
battle field, that the Russians carried off vast numbers
in their retreat, and that the total loss of the latter
could not be less than 15,000 of all kinds.
In favour of Lord Raglan's estimate must be adduced,
first, the scrupulous exactitude of all English reports ;
and secondly, that ho remained master of the field of
battle, aid was enabled, consequently, to count the
number of dead and severely wounded. On the other
hand, Prince Menschikoff ought to have been enabled,
by the daily states, to ascertain the amount of his loss
(that is, the number of men absent from the ranks on the
morning), but certainly not to distinguish the killed
from the wounded left within the allied position. The
prince's first report betrayed an attempt to soften
the importance of the contest. It iilat any rate re-
markable that, in the statement of his losses, he omits
the category of " contusioned," which always figures
in Russian reports, and that the amount of wounded
(contrary to the experience of a thousand battles),
was scarcely double that of the killed, whereas the Eng-
lish (and French) reports show about four wounded for
one killed on the inside. Perhaps Lord Raglan has based
his estimation of the Russian loss upon their customary
proportion.
Under every circumstance, the battle of Inkerman
was the most sanguinary, when the number of men
e- e9ue,l je consilt•r:-.1, that has fns long heqn fought
is 'Europe. Let the number of combatants be estimated
how it may, it is clear that the Allies fought to the dregs
a long and terrible infantry combat against at least
" double" their numbers, and drove them from the field;
whilst even the Allies do full jultioe to the efficacy of
the Bonin artillery.

things to guard—Paris, France, Algiers, and watch to the
north and to the south. You have not many men—he has
too much of exigencies. I repeat my words of yore. Come
what may—in this war, England stands more in need of
Poland and of Hungary, that Poland and Hungary stand
in need of England. With us, victory ; without us, de-
feat, or a disreputable, insufficient armistice. Yea re-
member the tale about the nine sybilline books. Poland
will be your sybilline books. Three already are lost.
Hasten to buy the remaining six, or else, like the
Roma' king of old, you shall have to pay. the full price
of all the nine for the last three. Mine is the advice,
yours the is choice.
M. Kossuth resumed his seat amid loud cheering, and
the chairman declared the business of the meeting to have
terminated.

CITY COMMISSION OF SEWERS.

On Tuesday a court was held for the despatch of pub'
lie business. Mr. Deputy Peacock occupied the chair.
Mr. Dew, the chief clerk, read a memorial to the
court, numerously signed by salesmen of meat in New-
gate-market, complaining of the arbitrary and oppres-
sive rummer in which Mr. Pocklington, one of the City
inspectors of meat, discharged his duty, and charging
him with not making returns of the proceeds of animal
food condemned and seized by him as unfit for human
consumption. The memorialists prayed the court to
direct a searching inquiry into the subject.
Nearly a dozen of the memorialists atttended as a
deputation from the general body.
Deputy HICKS moved, " That it be referred to a com-
mittee to inquire into the conduct of Mr. Robt. Pock•
lington, as one of the inspectors of slaughter-houses for
the City ; also, as to the disposal of the condemned
nie2.t and the appropriation of Al proceeds."
Deputy HoL•r seconded the motion.
A lengthened discussion ensued,
And eventually, Mr. ABRAHAM moved, and Mr. Ro,ss
seconded, by w'y of amendment, "That it be referred
to a committee to inquire into the disposal of bad meat
and the appropriation of the proceeds."
The amendment was carried.
A letter upon the discharge of poisonous water into
the Thames from the City Gasworks, being read by Mr.
DAW,
Mr. Ross moved that it be referred to the medical
officer.
The motion was carried, and the court adjourned.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, Nov. 2G.
From a perfectly well-informed source I learn
that the greater part of the Federal German States
have already sent in their adhesion to the propo-
sitions of Austria in respect of the Oriental ques-
tion. As Prussia, Bavaria, and Saxony are now
in the foremost ranks of the supporters of the
policy of Austria, a majority of at least two-thirds
of the votes at the Federal Diet is fully counted
upon.
On Thursday or Friday last the Bavarian. Mi-
nister announced to Count Buol the accession of
his Government to the policy of Austria in the
Eastern Question, and its intention to support the
propositions she purposes making to the Bund.
The English and French Ministers have recently
informed Count Buol that in the opinion of their
Governments the Four Conditions will not be a
sufficient protection for Europa, and that they
have instructions and powers to propose what ap-
pear to be necessary additions to the Protocol of
August the Bth. The order that the whole of the
Austrian army should be placed on a war footing
was issued on the 2d November, and it has never
been countermanded. In one word, the arma-
ments continue, and all the men on furlough have
been recalled. The 62 Grenadier battalions will
be formed.

THE BRITISH EXPEDITION.

The following is from tho Constantinople correspon-
dent of the Times :

" GALLIPOLI, APRIL 10.—Take dilapidated out-houses
of the farmers' yards in England, remove rickety old
wooden tenements of Holywell-street, Wych-street, and
the Borough—catch up, wherever you can, any seedy,
cracked, shutterless structure of planks and tiles that
have escaped the ravages of time in our cathedral towns
—carry off sheds and stalls from Billingsgate, and add
to them the huts along the shores of the Thames be-
tween London-bridge and Greenwich, bring them all to
the European side of the Straits of the Dardanelles, and
having pitched on the most exposed portion of the coast,
on a bare round hill, sloping away to the water's edge,
with
scarcely tree or shrub, tumble them higgledy
piggledy on its declivity, in such wise that the streets
may resemble, on a large scale, the devious traces of a
bookworm through some old torne—let the roadway be
very narrow, of irregularly varying breadth, according
to the bulging; and
projections of the houses, and filled
with large round slippery stones, painful and hazardous
to walk upon—here and and there borrow a dirty gutter
from a back street in Boulogne—let the houses in parts
lean across to each other so that the tiles meet, or that
a few planks thrown across from over the doorways
unite and form a sort of passage' or arcade--steal
some of our popular monuments, the shafts of various
national testimonials or Irish round towers—surround
them with a light gallery about 12 feet from the top,
put on a large extinguisher-shaped roof, paint them all
white, and havingthus made them into minarets, clap
them down into the maze of buildings,—then let fall big
stones all over the place—plant little windmills with
odd-looking sails on the crests of the hill over the town
----transport the ruins of a feudal fortress from northern
Italy and put it in the centre of the town with a
flanking tower extending to the water's edge—erect
a few buildings of wood by the water-side to serve as cafe,

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

r It was in the Elisir d'Amore of Donizetti that Madame
Bosio made her first appearance in this country, and
Adina no doubt will always be one of her most popular
and attractive characters. To the skill and flexibility of
Persiani this excellent vocalist adds a richness of voice
which her celebrated predecessor never had. Whatever
reservations in praise her earliest performances coun-
selled they are assuredly not necessary now. Singing
more perfect or more beautiful than that of Mdlle. Bosio
last night could not have been experienced from mortal
vocalist. There was nothing more to be done in the shape
of executancy ; and the airy music of Donizetti, so gay,
so pleasant, and so felicitously associated with the vola-
tile personages who figure i❑ the story, floated in the
ears of the listener with every grace that art could give
it. The acting of Mdlle. Bosio was also another ele-
ment of success. She delineated the village coquette
with easy and lively freedom, and made the lovelorn
Nemorino jealous with the prettiest cruelty imaginable.
Since the days of Persiani we have had no representa-

tive of this pleasant heroine so well enabled to be-
stow upon the music its most sparkling charm.
Ronconi's Dulcamara has long since exhausted praise.
This prince of buffos has carved out a portrait of the
great charlatan which, in its way, we can never hope to
see equalled. It is as unlike the reading of Lablache as
possible, whose sublime and patronising magnificence
gives place to petty waggery, the multitudinous conceits
of which, notwithstanding the close affinity they have to
the arts of the farceur, are provocatives of mirth that the
gravest would find it difficult to resist. Ronconi was as
comic as ever last night. His humours were as profuse
as they could well be ; and the spectators laughed as of
yore at his extempore drolleries in the "LT dite, u dite,
o rustici," when he sings the virtues of his nostrums, and
practises tooth-drawing on the lout who is standing by.
His vocalism was, as it invariably is in these broadly
buffo parts, admirable ; and we have met with few of his
particular class who preserve the music so exactly amid
the half-spoken grotesqueries with which he clothes it.
Tagliafico was the Belcore, and Luclsesi the Nemorino.
We have had the latter part better filled no doubt, but
Luchesi has much improved since he was here in 1353.

THE BALTIC.

COPENHAGEN, Tuesday, April 25:—Helsingfors
is nearly open. Eighteen prizes have been taken
in the Baltic.

HAMBURG, April 24. Yesterday the English
cruizers captured three more Russian merchant
vessels.

It was affirmed at Copenhagen, that among the
prizes last made two of them were found to be
freighted with war materials. Admiral Napier, it
was said, had lately received information from Eng-
land that several vessels had been recently freighted
in different ports with projectiles or other contra-
band of war, for the purpose of taking them to
Russia.

The first appearance of the English fleet before
the Swedish island of Gothland gave rise to a mis-
take which might have had deplorable results. The
Swedish Government, resolved on causing its neu-
trality to be respected, had given instructions for
the purpose to the various officers in command of
the troops. When the English fleet appeared at
Fahro Sound, some one told General Dahstrom,
the governor of the island, that English soldiers
would soon laud. On the instant the general
ordered his troops to repair to different points
along the shore, so as to oppose such an attempt by
force. The fleet, of course, did not make any such
attempt, but stood away to the offing.

THE WEATHER IN THE BALTIC.
Subjoined are the latest advices received in re-
ference to the state of the navigation in the
Baltic :

HELSINGFORS, April 13.—The navigation has com-
menced very early, but the part of the bays and narrow
waters are still covered with strong ice.
BOLDERAA, April IG, (a.m.)—The open spaces in the
sea ice are getting larger, and several vessels are under
sail in them. The sea channel is still firm. The Duna
River is completely free of ice as far as above the
White Church. The drift of ice is but slow. Wind

Temperature, three degs. of warmth, (p.m.) There
has been a drift of ice hire for a few hours,
but the stream was so slack that the ice drifting down
had not power enough to break through that in the
Channel to sea, which continues firm, and the bay and
mouth of the river are filled with ice, and the ice near
the Poderas seems as though it had heaped. The wind
blowing fresh at N. has driven the large masses of ice,
and the vessels enclosed therein, close to the coast, and
has enclosed all the open spaces. 17th.—Since yester-
day afternoon the state of the ice has not changed. The
vessels remain closed therein, and several of them are
close in on the Courland coast. The ice is drifting down
the river, but slowly—and that which comes down runs
in the mouth of the river and bay. The channel to sea
remains firm. Wind N., depth of water 13 feet, 3 degs,

LORD CARDIGAN AND " COMMON SENSE.

TO THE EDITOR OP THE TIMES.
Sir,—l should be extremely sorry that Lord Cardigan
should have any just grounds for supposing that in what
I have written I have been actuated by any evil animus
against either himself or the gallant soldiers now about
to enter upon active service under his command.
I selected the 11th Hussars for comment because I
had read three, in my opinion, very absurd announce-
ments concerning their preparations for the East. First,
the public was informed that an eminent Irish cutler
had been hired to sharpen their swords ; secondly, we were
told that their officers were occupied in havingpatches of
black leather sown on the seats of their cherry-coloured
over-ails, to protect them from the additional friction inci-
dendal to a state of war ; and, thirdly, we learnt that it
was arranged that the regiment was to embark in
steamers for England, disembark, and re-embark once
more in sailing vessels for the East.
I did not read similar information respecting the pre-
parations of our other cavalry regiments, and thus it
happened that my remarks were directed against the 11th
Hussars.

As a dress for hard work and real service—for resist-
tance to bad weather, for ease and comfort, for fighting
in by day and for sleeping in by night, for months to-
gether, without possibility of change or renewal—l can•
not conceive a more preposterous one than that of the
11th Hussars, ss known to the public by field-days in
the Phoenix-park and on Wimbledon-common. If new
and looser war garments have been recently served out
to them, as you seem to say, so much the better. I
only spoke of those I have seen them wear for many
years in peace time. Lord Cardigan will readily acknow-
ledge when he gets to the East that nothing can well be
more different in make, colour, and material than the
ample garance overalls of a French Dragoon and the
scanty cherry-coloured trousers of his own men. I be-
lieve his to be the only regiment in our service which
wears overalls of a cherry colour, whence I infer that
the service generally concur with me and other civilians
in considering it absurd and unserviceable.

With regard to the strong language in which Lord
Cardigan has couched his remarks upon my letter, you
have rendered it necessary for me to say more than to
express a hope that he will when on service, be more
just and courteous towards the officers and men who
serve under him than he seems inclined to be to his critics
at home.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,

THE DARIEN EXPEDITION.

On Monday evening the periodical meeting of the
Royal Geographical Society took place at the Rooms,
in Regent-street. Sir R. T. Murchison presided. The
portion of the globe to which the society's attention
was directed on this occasion was the Isthmus of Darien
and the adjacent territory.
Amongst the new members admitted was Josepk
Hume, Esq., M.P., whose certificate, the chairman
stated, was signed by nearly the whole of the council.
The chairman added, that the society was greatly in-
debted to Mr. Hume for obtaining them the Parliamen-
tary grant of 5001.

The CHAIRMAN announced that the Bellot Testimonial
Fund had received a considerable addition from Bona-
bay- He had received a letter from Sir Henry Leake,
communicating the result of a meeting presided over by
Lord Elphinstone, at which 1331. had been subscribed.
The SECRETARY then lead an official report on the
Isthmus of Darien, communicated through the chair-
man, by Commander J. C. Prevost, R.N., of her Ma-
jesty's ship Virago. Entering on the Pacific shore, the
commander had sailed up the Savana river, as far as it
was navigable for boats, which was about 22 miles from
its mouth. The party then landed, and commenced
their overland journey on Tuesday, the 20th December
last. They directed their course by compass as nearly
as they could for Port Escoces, on the Atlantic coast.
It was necessary to cut their way through thick under-
wood and shrubs, and they could not accomplish more
than two or three miles in a day. They penetrated in
this way 26 miles, crossed several considerable rivers,
and ascended a hill 800 feet high. but owing to the
density of the forest were not able to obtain a sight of
the Atlantic. On the fifteenth day they were obliged to
return, and discovered that a guard of four men, left at
a rancho on their way, had been murdered by Indians.
This put an end to the expedition.
Mr. E. HOPKINS said he had been in the country 13
or 14 years, and had made a survey of the district for
the Government. The chain •f the Cordilleras ran
through the whole isthmus, at an elevation of 2,000 or
3,000 feet. The most likely place for a communication
was up the river Chepo, which was navigable for 20
miles from the Pacific, and so across the Cordilleras at a
point were the elevation was the lowest. This wail
the line which had been chosen for the railway, and was
decidedly the best either for a railway or a canal,
though he considered that the latter was too expensive
to he attempted.

Lieutenant St. John was invited to express hie
opinion, but declined to do so on the ground that he
was preparing an official report for the Government,
founded on his survey of the country.
Thanks were voted to the author of the paper, and
the meeting then adjourned.

THE BALTIC.

COPENHAGEN, Tuesday, April 25.—Helsingfors
is nearly open. Eighteen prizes have been taken
in the Baltic.

HAMBURG, April 24. Yesterday the English
cruizers captured three more Russian merchant
vessels.

It was affirmed at Copenhagen, that among the
prizes last made tVio of them were found to be
freighted with war materials. Admiral Napier, it
was said, had lately received information from Eng-
land that several vessels had been recently freighted
in different ports with projectiles or other contra-
band of war, for the purpose of taking them to
Russia. _ _ _

The first appearance of the English fleet before
the Swedish island. of Guthland gave rise to a mis-
take which might have had deplorable results. The
Swedish Government, resolved on causing its neu-
trality to be respected, had given instructions for
the purpose to the various officers in command of
the troops. When the English fleet appeared at
Fahro Sound, some one told General Dahstrom,
the governor of the island, that English soldiers
would soon land. On the instant the general
ordered his troops to repair to different points
along the shore, so as to oppose such an attempt by
force. The fleet, of course, did not make any such
attempt, but stood away to the offing.

by the flashes of the fire of the burning fort, which nearly
destroyed sent up at intervals bright flashes of flame, light-

darkness. Altogether it was magnificent, and, as we
parted good friends, all ended well. Of caurse we were
all unarmed, except a revolver carried under my coat,
but there was no necessity for that, as, in case of a row,
they were too many for us. We gained a good deal of
information from them respecting the Russians. The
ships remained there all night, and on the morrow, after
continuing our examination of the coasts, we returned
with all speed to the Bosphorus, when, without an hours'
respite, we were packed off to Sebastopol. When we
returned from that place, off I went again next day,
and here we are, in for six months, if not more, unless
the Russians come out, and shorten our stay by either
taking or being taken."
