[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A LIEUTENANT OF DRAGOONS
CURED OF RHEUMATISM BY HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT
AND PILLS.—This officer, who is in the Dutch army,
states that Holloway's Pills and Ointment have cured
him of rheumatism, which appeared to be incurable, as
neither sea-bathing, vapour-baths, nor preparations vaunted
as sure remedies, did him any good, and the treatment of
the doctor, after several months' trial, was without suc
cess. At this juncture he commenced taking those
and rubl ing the Ointment into the complaining parts
twice a day, which effectually cured him in the courso of
six weeks. The truth of this statement can be vouched for
by Mr. J. B. Stratrnan, of Bois-ile-Duc.--,Sold by all drug-
gists; and at Professor Holloway's establishment, 244,
Strand, Loudon.

THEATRE ROYAL, DRURY-LANE.-THIS
EVENING.—Mr. E. T. SMITH, Lessee, be emphatically
to acknowledge the almost unparalleled support with which his en-
deavours to resuscitate the national drama on the board; of old
Drury have been reciprocated by the overflow of admiring and dis-
criaiinating audL•nces, wt o have nightly hailed the appearance of
Mr. G. V. Brooke in the varied Shakiperian and other illustrations
of the national drama, which that eminent actor has had the honour
to demonstrate. The engagement of Mr. Brooke as a matter of
necessity has expired, and another and very different field of ope-
rations presents itself to the manager's enterprise, in catering for the
tastes and requirements of his patrons, the British public. In fur-
therance of these objects, Mr. Smith has infinite pleasure in an-
nouncing the engagement of a galaxy of
EQUESTRIAN TALENT.

never before assembled conjunctively, even in this, the Metropolis
of Nations. The classical development of the Hippodramatic Art
will, by the combined excellence of the artists engaged, obtain a
triumph unmatched in the history of such performances. Not only
has no expense been spared, but, in making arrangements, a wise
discretion, the result of a deliberative council in science, has been
observed in the selection of distinguished public favourites, as well as
meritorious candidates for London approbation. Earnestly but re-
spectfully soliciting a continuation of that support, which he grate-
fully recognises, he does himself the honour of submitting the fo!.
low int; programme, in confirmation of the integrity of his address
and intentions:—

THE NEW COLONEL OF THE INNISKILLINGS.—Her Ma-

ments in the service--the 27th, or Inniskillings—now
stationed in the capital of their native county. This high
distinction is honourable to the professional discernment
of Lord Hardinge, and complimentary to Major-General
Fleming, a note of whose long and meritorious services

BEWARE OF THE SPRING OF 1854.

TO THE EDITOR OP THE SUN.
SlR,—The period has now arrived, to which I
stated, in a letter two months ago, inerted in
your columns, the negotiations would be prolonged.
My statement was made with perfect assurance—
an assurance justified by the result. I then said
that negotiations would be prolonged till the latter
end of October, when military operations would
cease to be practicable. The negotiations have
been so prolonged, and at this very point have
been intercepted by the incident of a declaration
of war which can have no practical effect. It must
surely be evident to the least attentive mind that
the Parts were all distributed from the beginning.
"4Let us reduce the matter to its simple expres-

the
seasons. On the passage of the Pruth, in July,te
1353, I said, " Now let Europe beware of the
spring of 1854."
I do not hesitate to declare that I am myself
conversant with the steps now actually taking for
this revolution. I will go even the length of stat-
ing that I have been consulted in reference to it.
This question has been put to me, " Shall we
assume, in reference to Russia, an offensive or
defensive attitude ?" I have answered in the
words with which I replied to the Hungarians in
1848—" Your revolution has too powerful a pro-
tector, and too judicious an adviser in the Czar,
for you to apply elsewhere." And, seeing that in
every Cabinet Russia has had her agent, I use the
words of M. Kossuth, it is stretching no probabi-
lity to assert, that she has them in every con- I
spiracy.
Let me, Sir, through your indulgence, therefore,

GERMANY.

The Cologne Gazette states from Berlin 21st :
" The Ministers of the Customs' Congress have
just drawn up the protocol relative to the modi-
fications in the tariff, and the ratifications may be
given by the different Governments before the sth
of November. The Saxon Government finally
proposed to modify the tariff on manufactured
articles, but it is not probable that the congress
will yet discuss that proposition. The Academy
of Sciences gave a public sitting cn the occasion of
the anniversary of the King's birthday, at which
Professor Vrendelenburg delivered an address, in
which he declared that on the day of the anniver-
.!ary of the King's birth no more appropriate sub-
ject for discussion could be brought forward than
that of the cathedral of Cologne, the chef d'oeuvre
of German architecture. He then gave an his-
torical sketch of that monument and of its archi-
tectural beauties."

Dr. Goetsche, ex-editor of the New Prussian,
Gazette, who hacl been condemned to detention in
a fortress, has obtained a pardon from the King.
A special commission, appointed by the Prussian
government, has been recently trying experiments
with muskets on a new system for all the Prussian
army. The results have, it is said been perfectly
satisfactory.

An address from the commercial community of
Magdeburg to the Prussian minister, praying for
the abolition of the duty on corn, has caused a
great sensation at Berlin. The Prussian govern-
ment had before spontaneously made a similar pro-
position to the customs' conference, but it was re-
jected by a large majority.
A letter from Vienna of the 18th, in the German,
Journal of Frankfort, says :—" The maximum
amount of paper-money which Austria can have in
circulation, according to the ordonnance of Sep-
tember 14, 1853, is 150 millions of florins. At the
end of August the circulation was 139,827,317f1., so
that 10,172,683 florins more could still be issued. In
the course of September, upwards of five millions
were issued, leaving somewhere more than a simi-
lar sum available. The causes of the issue in
September were various—the expense of the camp
at Olmutz ; the payment of the quarter's interest
on the public debt ; the payment of the taxes con-
nected with land and agriculture being in arrear,
in consequence of the ]and proprietors and farmers
not having sold their wheat in the expectation of
higher prices, die. But these taxes will now with-
out doubt be soon paid up, and in addition, the
expenses will be considerably diminished by the
great reduction effected in the army. There is
consequently every reason to hope that the admi-
nistration will not be obliged to issue the rest of
the paper money now held back."
A Vienna letter of the 20th states that the Jews
of the city have drawn up a memorial praying for
the re-establishment of the rights which were
taken from them by the late decree. This memo-
rial is to be presented to the Emperor on his return
from Munich.

Our Burmese acquisitions were in a state OT,
war, being overrun with large bodies of arnica
men, said to exceed 14,000 in number, who occu-
pied fortified positions, whence they attacked our
posts with occasional success.
They were said to be instigated by the King of
Ava.

The resumption of hostilities was considered in-
evitable.

Colonel Mackeson had been assassinated by an
Affghan, at Peshawur.
Captain Parker and Ensign Bosworth had been
killed in an affair with Arabs in the Nizardo

E OF AN ABSCONDED DELINQUENT FROM LIW:
POOL IN AUSTRALIA.—The Eagle, arrived from Me'.
bourne at Liverpool on Saturday, had on board Jame;
St. Albin Quinn, a young man about 22 years of age'
and who absconded from Liverpool in July, 1852, with
about 1,3001., the property of the Messrs. Tram and
Co., in whose establishment he was as collector. For a
long time nothing was heard of him, until a gentleman
told his employers Le had ma him in Melbourne-street:
Warrants for his apprehension were instantly transmitted
by the Secretary of State to Australia, where he W 39
captured and brought home in the Eagle. After cod'
mitting the robbery he went to London, from thence t°
the continent, and afterwards had the hardihood to CO°
to Liverpool, where he succeeded in eludingthe 1301101
and embarked on board the Great Britain on the
.2.lsta°
August, 1852. He was brought before Alderman J•
Turner, at the Liverpool police court yesterday, and the
cashier at Messrs. Train and Co.'s proved the robbeqj
and at the request of Quinn, a remand was granted
to-day (Tuesday), for the purpose of receiving legal 3 e
vice. He states that he has made 5,0001. in Melbourad,
as a general merchant, but he was taken away so
denly that he has been forced to leave it behind him
When arrested he had only 301. and a valuable gold wittoD'
