PRUSSIA.

The Zeitungshalle of Berlin publishes the follow-
ing, dated the Ist, from Potsdam :—" To-day the
body guards attacked some citizens without means of
defence who desired to be present at a popular meet-
ing. A stranger who had left the town to see the
assembly received five wounds in the head. The body
guards surrounded the tribune. This evening the
aristocracy is delighted; congratulations are given to
thelody guards. It is hoped that civil war will at
lenfli break out. The Commandant of the National
Guard having demanded of the staff if it could re-

strain the soldiery, received a satisfactory reply, and
the Commandant threatens to put the town in a state
of siege."

AUSTRIA.
In the National Assembly at Vienna, on the 30th
nit., a Deputy, M. Borosch, questioned the Minister
of War with respect to the letters of Baron Jella-
eb4.l). The Minister replied that several times Jella-
chieh hrl demanded arms and objects of equipment,
anA that he had air ays been answered, in a purely
It private manner, that so long as the Government of
Hungary should be in the path of legality, there
cud be no idea of such assistance, but that 280,000
-ins had been sent to him to pay the Croatian
in con'Sequenee of the Hungarian Ministry
hailing refused to pay them. The Sclavonians ap-
pl:o,ied tiris statement with enthusiasm, but the op-
position was not satisfied.

SWITZERLAND.

The following is a note from the Ambassador Of
Austria to the Federal Directory of Berne :
" The undersigned, Envoy Extraordinary, &c., has
had the honour to receive at the same time as the letter
of the Federal Directory of the 24th, the copy of the
note which that authority addressed to the Minister of
Foreig❑ Affairs at Vienna. Conformably with the
desire expressed by the Directory, the undersigned has
done all that depended on him, with a view of re-
establishing, as soon as possible, international con-
nexions and good feeling between the Lombardo-Vene-
Lion kingdom and the Swiss confederacy. Such has
been the object of his correspondence with Field-Marshal
Radetzky, and his communications with Vienna, for if he
be fully convinced of the loyalty of the intentions of the
Federal Directory and the Confederation in general, the
same conviction should also exist at Vienna and Milan.
Marshal Radetzky has expressed his regret at the in-
terruption of good understanding, and admits that the
later decrees of the Swiss Diet have been well inten-
tioned. As soon as the Marshall have the certitude of
these decrees being acted upon and executed, he will
revoke his orders. And this certitude the Commissioners
of the Tessin can speedily procure him.

TUSCANY.

The differences between Leghorn and the Tuscan
Government still continue. The Patria of the 30th
ult. says—" We had hoped that legal Government
would have been re-established at Leghorn, but it
seems otherwise. The new Governor and authorities
have been refused admittance at Leghorn and have
returned to Florence They have made an official
report to the Minister of the Interior, it which they
state that so soon as they had arrived they found the
Gonfalonier, who announced that their entry at Leg-
horn would certainly lead to disorders—that some of
the most influential of the people had assured him
that resistance would be offered to their reception,
and that the people were coming armed to conduct
them as prisoners to the fortress. The banker
ADAMI, who bad promised to supply the ,necessary
funds to the municipality had, from 'the fear of disor-
ders occasioned by their presence, withdrawn his
promise. The chief of the municipality'had gone to
Florence to prevent their coming, and to communi-
cate the actual state of affairs to the Central Govern •
ment. The new authorities had therefore returned
to Florence for new instructions. The new Gover-
nor, who was thus rejected, issued a proclamation, in
which he says that he came to re-establish order,

sembi ed to renew its bureau. M. Drouyn de Lhuys
was re-elected President; M. Aylies was chosen
Vice- President, in the room of M. de Mornay ; M.
Edmond Lafayette and M. de Heckeren were nomi-
nated secretaries. M. Mole caused himself to be
inscribe d a member of the Committee.
The Club of the Institute has declared in favour of
the norednation of the President of the Republic by
unlverstd suffrage. The majority was as great as the
three-:7ourths. The questions which that body has
still to discuss are of inferior importance. It remains
to decide, f-st, if the National Assembly will have a
right to choose a President amongst the first five
candidates, in the case that none of them should have
obtained an absolute majority, and, in the second
place, at what period it will be advisable to have the
President nominated. Is it to be after the vote of the
Constitution, or after the vote of the organic laws ?
The Club will have to decide on these questions in one
a its earliest sittings.

demned to transportation, has concluded its labours.

LOMBARD Y.

The following address, says the Augsburg Gazette,
has been issued at Milan, in the name of the Austrian
Government :

" In the hope of speedily beholding tranquillity re-
stored in all the provinces of the Lombardo-Venetian
kingdom, and animated by the desire of causing their
populations to participate in all the liberties enjoyed
by the other provinces of the empire of Austria, we
consider it right to at once make our intentions in
that respect known. We have already accorded a com-
plete amnesty to all the inhabitants of the Lombardo-
Venetian kingdom, for the share that they may have
taken in the political events of the present year; we
have ordered that they shall be neither prosecuted nor
punished, attention being paid to certain considerations
at which it may be deemed necessary to stop in the
confirmation of public employments. Our will at the
seine time is that the inhabitants of the Lombardo-
Venetian kingdom shall receive a Constitution, suited
not less to their nationality, and to the wants of the
country, than to their union with the empire of Austria.
To that effect, as soon as order and peace shall have
been sufficiently ensured, we shall convoke in a place to
be hereafter designated, representatives of the nation,
who shall be freely elected by all the provinces of the
Lombardo-Venetian kingdom."

PRUSSIA.

The following resolution, proposed by M. ROD..

by a msjority of 275 to 17.
" The National Assembly declares that it must elicit
an assurance, that in conformity with the law of the
28th of June (Frankfort), relative to the establishment
of a Provisional Central Power, his Majesty's Govern-
ment will strenuously, and as in duty bound, co-operate
with the Provisional Central Power and German Na-
tional Assembly in all such resolutions as they may
adopt in regard to the threatened complications of the
Danish question."

This resolution involves the principle of submission
on the part of the Executive of Prussia on every occa-
sion to the Provisional Central Power; in fact, it
makes of the King of PRUSSIA a mediatised German
Prince.

According to an official return just published, the
otal amount of voluntary loan has reached 104 mil-
ions out of the 15 millions demanded.

THREE o'CLocK,—The business done at the Bourse
to-day was very limited, but the Funds maintained
their prices pretty well. The Railway Shares, how-
ever, continued to droop, which is hardly to be won-
dered at, considering that money can be invested in the
Funds at prices yielding a higher rate of interest
than anything that could be hoped, even in ordinary
lines, from these speculations. For the Account, the
French Three per Cents. have risen 10c.; Five per
Cents. are the same as yesterday; Loan has risen sc.
For Money, the Three per Cents. have risen 5c., Five
per Cents. 10c., and the Loan 25c.; Bons du Tiesor are
at 23 to 22b discount. Bank of France Shares have
risen sf. Belgian Bank Shares not quoted; Five per
Cents. have risen If. Spanish Active is quoted at 134;
Three per Cents. remain at 23i; Passive is at 2i. Ro-

PRUSSIA.

The Zeitungshalle of Berlin publishes the follow.
ing, dated the Ist, from Potsdam :—" To-day the
body guards attacked some citizens without means of
defence who desired to be present at a popular meet-
ing. A stranger who had left the town to see the
assembly received five wounds in the head. The body-
guards surrounded the tribune. This evening the
aristocracy is delighted; congratulations are given to
the body guards. It is hoped that civil war will at
length break out. The Commandant of the National
Guard having demanded of the staff if it could re-
strain the soldiery, received a satisfactory reply, and
the Commandant threatens to put the town in a state
of siege."

SWITZERLAND.

The following is the essential part of the note
which M. Raveaux, envoy of the Central German
Government, is charged to remit to the Helvetic
Directory with respect to the attempts made in the
Grand Duchy of Baden by the republican bands
which had found a refuge in the Swiss territory :
" The recent invasion organised by Struve, at the
head of an armed and disciplined band, immediately
after the, assistance which Hecker previously re-
ceived from Switzerland, imposes on the Government
of the Vicar of the Empire the duty of taking all
measures of precaution which the honour and se-
curity of Germany require. In consequence the Mi-
nistry of the Empire demands for this manifest viola-
tion of all international obligations open and com-
plete reparation, and it desires that it may be given
with the least possible delay. For this purpose the
Ministry demands fiat the Governments of the
cantons in which the organization took place, and
from which the invasion of the corps francs was
made, shall immediately proceed to a scrupulous in-
vestigation, and to the severe chastisement of guilty
fanctionarit s and authorities ; that in case the consti-
tution in vigour in those cantons should not permit
the expulsio❑ of these refugees, they shall be placed
under the surveillance of the police, and that the
Directory shall categorically explain itself with re-
spect to the guarantees it is able to offer to prevent
the repetition of such acts as those set forth above.
In case this demand shall not be promptly satisfied,
the Government of the Vicar of the Empire will
adopt all measures and all means, the employment of
which may be justified lay the above-mentioned viola-
tions of international obligations, and which the
honour of Germany exact." _ _

According to the Ticino Gazette of the 30th ult.
the relations between that canton and Lombardy
had been resumed. Count Zampieri, of Imola, had
arrived at Lugano with dispatches from Rome, in-
viting General Zucchi to accept the War Depart-
ment. It was said that, after a conference with the
Count, he had accepted the office.

CELIBACY.—Singleness is not always the con-
sequence of disinclination, disappointed affection, or a diffi-
culty in meeting with a fit helpmate. Thousands of tke unmarried
would with joy embrace the sacred conditions of Matrimony, did
they feel themselves equal to its obligations; and the chequered
page of life reveals innumerable instances where, under tkat
blighting( consciousness, man has permitted the most ardent affec-
tion to consume him to the grave, rather than consign its object to
that life of unmitigable anguieb and fettered solitariness into which
his affianced would be plunged if he married. Some are, however,
wilful enough to gain the affections of the other sex under these
circumstances; and, though not so villalious as to proceed to the
altar, will make such excuses for procrastination as contribute to his
selfish desire of exclusively enjoying. her society, by precluding her
from accepting other offers. There is scarcely a street where this
history is not enacted; and yet with the exercise of common
foresight, its frequency might be so lessened as to ren-
der an instance rare throughout the entire kingdom. The
disqualifications for Marriage have more than one primary source ;
the chief of which is Impuissance, arising fromfour causes :—namely,
Natural Deficiency ; the Prostration produced by Early Habits ; the
Weakening effects of Later Excesses ; and Nervousness of Tempera-
ment ; the next sources of Importance are hereditary and acquired
disease ; and, lastly, men aro prevented from marrying by the effects
of disease—which, when ill-cured, leaves traces that forbid all im-
pulse towards wedlock. In each of these instances it is unhappily
too common for the sufferer to consider his case beyond remedy, and
he fails to consult even his own medical attendant. Such will Rad
all obstacles removed by reference to a valuable Manual on Nervous
Debility and Generative diseases, the thirty-seventh thousand of
which has just been published by its Authors, J. L. CURTIS and CO.,
Consulting Surgeons, 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London, entitled
MANHOOD ; the Causes of its Premature Decline, with Plain
Directions for Perfect Restoration, &c., &c. This eminent Work,
which is forwarded by W. Strange, Besokseller, 21, Patnernoster-
row, London, post-paid, in a sealed envelope for 2s. id., in postage
stamps, has saved thousands, and the result of its perusal has in-
variably been a restoration of the reader to his position as a useful
memner of society.

BADEN.

The Posthampt Gazette of Frankfort, under date
of Friburg, lst, says that for the purpose of protect
ing STRUVE from the fury of the soldiers of that place,
he had been removed to the fortress of Rastadt. The
soldiers, to the number of four hundred, assembled
before the place where he was confined, and de-
manded that he should be delivered up to triera, that
they might execute him. The officers orildtrty dis-
played the greatest courage and energy, declaring
that STRUVE should not be taken without passing
over their dead bodies. In order to calm their fury,
it was necessary to take STRUVE from his bed, and
make him lie on straw. The next morning he was
removed to Rastadt.

DO RSETSIIIRE.
The important and very beautiful FREEHOLD and TITHE-FREE
ESTATE, MANSION, CHURCH, capital FARMS, WOOD-
LANDS, and MANOR of WOOLLAND, in the splendid and fertile
Vale of BLACKMOOR, near BLANDFORD.
MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON are
commissioned by the Proprietor to submit to PUBLIC
SALE, at the Mart, Bartholomew-lane, near the Bank of England,
on TUESDAY, November 7, at Twelve (unless previously disposed of
by Private Treaty),
The above truly desirable and very valuable and complete DO-
MAIN. It comprises (with the exception of only about twelve acres)
the entire parish of Woolland, embracing in a ring fence nearly
1,200 acres of rich meadow, pasture, arable, orchard, and thrivlng
oak woods, all freehold and tithe-free, surrounding a moderate sized
mansion, in complete repair, with beautiful pleasure grounds and
park-like paddocks, fish-pools, &c., with the manor and the perpetual
right of presentation to the church (a donative free from ecclesiastical
jurisdiction). The domain is highly picturesque, boldly undulated,
richly timbered, and abundantly watered with rivulets and springs. Its
woodlands and covers are peculiarly suited for the preservation of game,
and it is close to several famous packs of hounds, only a mile from
Abbey Milton, the splendid seat of Lord Portarlington, and about
nine miles from Blandford and fire from Sturminster. The farms
hare all suitable homesteads, and are let to responsible tenants at low
rents, but the mansion, woods, and manor are in hand.
The estate may be viewed on application t) Mr. William Spearing,
at Woolland, and descriptive particulars, with lithographic plans,
may be obtained at the inns at Sherborne, Dorchester, Blandford,
kc. ; at the Auction Mart, London ; of Messrs. Stone and Symonds,
solicitors, Dorchester ; and of Messrs. Daniel Smith and Son, land
agents, in Waterloo-place, Pall-mall.

good. it could not fail to realise more than all the
ad-vantages promised by Mr. Cobb, the promoter.
That gentleman has long been known to us as a care-
ful compiler of railway statistics, and as an able
contributor to railway literature. We should, there-
fore, have confidence in the accuracy of his calcula-
tions, even had they not been certified by two
eminent actuaries. The novel and most attractive
feature in this comprehensive scheme is the con-
templated surplus profit flowing into the Railway
Officers' Mutual Benefit Fund'—thus giving to all
railway servants a direct pecuniary interest in the
prevention of accidents; and securing (at a much
less cost) far greater advantages to the recipients,
than can be obtained from any ordinary benefit
club.' According to Mr. Cobb's calculations, it would
seem that the remoteness of the contingency is fully
met by the smallness of the premium to be paid by
the public. No doubt, therefore, can be entertained
that all constant railway travellers would be glad to
effect policies with the association at so tempting a
price. We repeat, that the whole proposition pro-
mises to realise invaluable advantages to the railway
interest, as well as to the public, and deserves the best
consideration of every railway executive throughout
the kingdom."

WOOL.

The imports of Wool into London last week consisted
of 51 bales from Buenos Ayres; 158 ditto from Mar-
seilles; 2,000 ditto from Sydney; 150 ditto from Ham-
burgh; and 100 ditto from various other quarters. The
demand for English, and the best qualities of Colonial
Wool, continues steady at fully last week's quotations.
In all other kinds, exceedingly little business is doing,
at barely stationary prices.

TALLOW.
The continued heavy importations and the rapid in-
crease in the stock have produced considerable heaviness
in the Tallow trade, at a further decline in the prices of
fully Is per cwt. P. Y. C. on the spot is quoted at
458 9d to 46s per cwt. For forward delivery exceedingly
little is doing. Town Tallow, 45s per cwt net cash.

WORSHIP-STREET-(THIS DAY.)
Two cases of robbery on the Eastern Counties Rail.
way were this morning brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt.
The first delinquent was a foreigner who gave the
name of Hanway, and it appeared, from the evidence of
Merton, an assistant police-inspector at the terminus,
that at about half-past nine o'clock on Saturday night
he perceived the prisoner lurking about the platform,
and watched his proceedings. A train arrived, which
for a moment obscured the sight he had of the pri-
soner, who, however, had also been noticed by a gentle-
man. A box, which was understood to contain a huge
amount of valuable property, and which had beer.
brought up by the train, was deposited upon the plat-
form, which the prisoner no sooner saw than ho called
to a porter, and pointing to the trunk said, "Take that
immediately to a cab." The porter was hastening away
with the property, followed by the prisoner, whose pro-
gress was, however, arrested by the gentleman, and he
was taken into custody by witness.
The prisoner, who denied all knowledge of the trans-
action, was remanded. _ _

Tr. e next prisoner was named Bastow, charged with
stealing two great coats from ono of the first-class wait-
ing•rooms, at the above terminus, on the afternoon of
Saturday. He had been watched by Kennedy, one of
the employen of the company, who followed him into
the street with the property in his possession. 'Witness
asked him where he was going with the coats. Prisoner
replied that be was going to take them to the " Lost
Property Office." Witness then took him into custody.
Mr. George Richardson, chief superintendant of the
line, said he had been watching the prisoner for some
time lurking about the platform previous to the robbery.
The prisoner was remanded, in order to give time to
wake inquiries respecting
