ITALY.

In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, at
Turin, on the 15th, the Minister was asked what
steps the Government had taken in consequence of the
issuing of a Bando by RADETZKY on the 11th inst.,
by which the whole population of Milan is called on
for an extraordinary contribution, of which neither
the amount nor the manner of assessment is stated—
such Bando being neither more nor less than an
organization of pillage. The Minister of the In-
terior replied that the Sardinian Government bad
appealed to the French and English Governments to
interfere as the mediating rowers to prevent the
Bando of RADETZKY from being carried into effect.
The Concordia says, the Municipal Council of
Milan has protested
,against the infamous decree of
RAI/EMMY. It takes its stand on the capitulation,
which guaranteed the lives and properties of the citi-
zens, and an amnesty for the deeds of the revolution.
It is said the sums exacted by RADETZKY amount to
100,000 Austrian livres.

The Contemperraneo of Rome, of the 10th, says
that the Minister Rossi is in constant amicable cor-
respondence with the Bourbon Government of Naples
to conclude a treaty, but in what sense is not yet
known.

Letters from Bologna, of the 13!h, state that the
Pontifical Government has at length granted to the
legion of GAItIBALDI entrance into its territories, on
condition of laying down their arms on entering, but
to retake them on their departure.

EGYPT.
DEATH OF IBRAHIM PACHA.

Intelligence reached town yesterday afternoon of
the death of IBRAHIM PACHA from cholera. No
particulars are given.
The Courrier de Marseilles contains the fol-
lowing :—" We learn that a telegraphic dispatch was
sent off yesterday to the Government, announcing
that on the day of the departure of the Osiris from
Alexandria, IBRAIIAM PACHA was at the point
of death. This ship received ordez from the
French Consul-General at Alexandria to go
to the squadron of Admiral BAUDIN and request
him to send a naval force to Egypt;'--A
different account was talked of yesterday in the lob-
bies of the National Assembly. It was said that

news had been received of the death of MEHEMET
Az.r, and that IBRAHIM, immediately after the death
of his father, had assumed the reins of government.
The semi-official journal, the Moniteur du Soir, of
yesterday evening, has nothing more on the subject
than the following short letter from Cairo, dated the
sth :—" The health of IBRAHIM PACHA again ex-
cites serious uneasiness."

THE TWO BARONESSES. By Hans Christian
Andersen. 2 Vols.
Christian Andersen, whose works are almost as
well known in England as in his own country, has now
come forward as an English writer. His new fiction,
" The Two Baronesses," makes its first appearance
in the English language—composed in the English
language by its Danish author. The following frag-
ment of the dedicatory epistle of " The Two
Baronesses " conveys a graceful and grateful expres-
sion of its author's sentiments towards England and
the English. These remarks are addressed to Mr.
Bentley, the publisher of all Andersen's works, to
whom as an appropriate mark of grateful friendship
" The Two Baronesses" is dedicated. Speaking of
England and Scotland in this dedication, Christian
Andersen remarks—
" I knew and loved those countries before my feet
trod them. With Marryatt's Jacob Faithful,' I had
long before sailed up the Thames; by Dickens I was
led into London's narrow lares, and I listened to the
throbbing hearts there; and in ' Night and Morning'
Bulwer opened to my gaze the rich landscape, with its
towns, its churches, and its villages.
" I was at home on Scotland's mountains, and familiar
with its deep lakes, lonely paths, and ancient castes.
Walter Scott's genius had wafted me thither; Walter
Scott's beneficent hand had extended to me the spiritual
bread and wine, so that I forgot the earthly.
"I was intimate with Shakspere's land and Burns'
mountains before my corporal eye beheld them; and
when at length I visited them, I was not received as a
stranger. Kind eyes regarded me—friends extended
the hand to me. Elevated and humbled at the same time
by so much happiness, my heart swelled with gratitude
to God. My next thanks are to the dear friends I pos-
sess in your great nation, and amongst them, to you,
my friend, as one of the first. To you, who adopted my
first romance, I here present my latest.
"It is not Italy's beauty, and ;the manners and cus-
toms of her people which are here depicted: it is
Danish nature the life of the world around me in
the land wherein I live. May it preserve the affection
of my friends!"
The author's wish is likely to be realised. The "Two
Baronesses" is well calculated to maintain the good
opinion of Andersen's admirers, and sustain his lite-
rary
reputation, but we cannot think it in anywise
likely to enhance it. It is with extreme reluctance
we pronounce this questionable commendation, for
Andersen is one of our especial favourites. We ap-
preciate to the uttermost the exquisite simplicity, the
genuine pathos, and the natural humour whiCh
abound in his writings, and which constitute their pe-
culiar charm. The following very truthful remark
which occurs in the " Two Baronesses" may be very
correctly applied to its own author :
" A novel that contains only events is read but once;
the unexpected, the surprising, which was the life and
soul of it, is departed, dead after perusal; on the con-
trary, where the human character appears forcibly and
naturally drawn, where thought exists in living words,
where poetry has its imperishable growth,—to such a
work we return again and again; that book is read and
re-read; one comes from it refreshed, as from a ramble in
the woods in spring.'

as from

virtue be a vice in morality, in literature every at-
traction of style may become degenerated into a
blemish, and so it happens with Andersen's simplicity
—it occasionally dwindles into baldness of style and
puerility of sentiment. It is because this is unfortu;
nately too often the case in the " Two Baronesses,
that we are inclined to think this novel, notwith-
standing its numerous attractions, will not enhance
its author's celebrity. It is true the action abounds
with beauties, and we might very conscientiously
pass over its defects, and pronounce only a favourable
opinion of it; with an ordinary author we might,
perhaps, adopt such a course, but with one like An-
dersen we must act otherwise. We should be loth
to see him spoiled by too much commendation,
and, therefore, admiring him as we do, we tell
him candidly he must not be satisfied to
rest on the reputation he has already gained
he must increase it or it will decrease. The sorrows
of genius are proverbial, but perhaps without the
sorrows the genius would be little worth ; neglect,
unmerited neglect, acts as a stimulus to the really
great, whereas,
" Approbation too profuse
Wakes vanity to tame the Muse."
Had the " Hours of Idleness" been greeted with
universal applause perhaps " Childe Harold" had
never been written. Andersen himself, in his youth,
experienced all the hardships and anxieties of author-
ship, but his genius eventually was recognised, his
simple pathos, his exquisite naturalness touched the
hearts of the many, and those hearts became his own
—for he is one of those writers whom we love rather
than admire. Andersen is now a popular writer,
and therefore it is that we are anxious to caution him
against a fatal error into which some of our most
popular writers have been betrayed. For example,
there is one celebrated author and one celebrated
authoress whom we could mention who
having earned a wide-spread popularity by
the excellence of their earlier writings,
seem to consider they have done enough for fame,
and now (it is to be presumed) only write for money
—they write multa and not multum—they write
works which, coming from other hands, would only
meet with contempt, but which coming from them are
read, for they have "a name," and are admired, it being
in some circles the fashion to admire them. This
is a fact too well known to be for a moment contested,
and it is a course of proceeding which greatly dete-
riorates the character of our literature, and lowers
the taste of general readers. Knowing this, and
fully conscious of its bad effects, we are anxious to
msrkeveryindication of similar conduct in our popular
writers, and when, as in the ,case of Andersen, we
detect incipient symptoms of such a falling off, we
are unscrupulous in denouncing them. Having said
thus much of our opinion of Andersen's being inclined
to rest on his oars, as is evidenced in the " Two Baro-
nesaes,"..we will now turn our consideration to the

GRNERALBOAND or HEALTH.—The General Board
of Health has published, in last night's Gazette, a third
notice, containing regulations for the treatment of cholera
cases. These are chiefly a repetition of the regulations
already published, with respect to medical aid being pro-
vided by the parochial authorities, the erection of hos-
pitals, places of refuge for the friends of those attacked,
and the adoption of other precautionary measures; and
it is ordered by the Board that " these special orders
and regulations shall hereafter take effect, without
further notification, in all places forthwith, upon the
actual occurrence of cases of cholera." In all cases,
however, in which the orders are acted upon, immediate
notice of the fact must be sent to the Board of Health,
and the medical officers are required to notify from time
to time the progress of the epidemic in their respective
districts.

The total receipts for the current half-year will, it is ex-
pected, exceed 400,000/. ; but looking at the additional mile-
age recently opened,and to be opened—at the further natural
development of the traffic through agricultural districts,
R hick experience shows is of slow but steady growth.-and

* The sum received and receivable on account of the Bris-
tol and Birmingham Stock is only 1,744,4201., owing to the
issue of some of the shares at a discount.
Only 5 per cent.is payable for the present half-year, but
the full dividend will be due in July, 1849.
