HAMBURG PAPERS.

BERLIN, SEPT. 10.—His Majesty the Emperor of
Russia, in consequence of a slight indisposition, did
hot set out from Schwedt till half-past seven o'clock
yesterday morning for Mundengratz, a domain of
Count Waldstein, in the circle of Bunzlau, in Bo-
hemia, with a fine palace, or castle, where his Ma-
jesty will have his interview with the Emperor of
Austria. We hear that his Majesty is accompanied
by his Royal Highness the Crown Prince to Frank-
fort on the Oder. His Majesty goes by way of
Gorlitz, where, according to accounts from Breslau,
her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess of Saxe-
Weimar, with her consort, has been waiting ever
since the 3d inst., the arrival of her august brother.
SEPT. l I.—His Majesty the Kng set out to-day
for Magdeburg. Her Royal Highness the Crown
Princess, their Royal Highnesses Princes and Prin-
cesses William, Charles, and Albert, and the here-
ditary Grand Duke and Duchess of Mechlenburg
Schwerin, have returned from Schwedt, and all the
Princes and Princess Albert, and the Princess of
Leignitz are gone to Magdeburg.
M. de Ribeaupierre, the Russian Ambassador at
this Court, and General Mansuroff, have arrived
from Schwedt; Count Polemkin, Russian Ambas-
sada'. Extraordinary to the Court of the Nether-
lands from Sr. Petersburgh, and Prince \Vladimir
Schentzihoff, from Dresden. Count 'Witt, Military
Governor of Warsaw, has set out to return to that
city. The Russian General Sumarokoff, and Prince
\Vladimir Galitzin, and General Von Witzleben, are
gone to Magdeburg.
It was stated by mistake in a former number that
the Emperor of Russia had landed at Revel, and
returned thence by land to St. Petersburgh.
The Isehora put into a small bay near Revel, but
could not get to the shore, on account of the vio-
lence of the surf. It therefore put to sea again, and
the Captain declaring that he could not proceed
without imminent danger, his Majesty returned to
Cronstadt by sea.
Mr. Burnett, the new English Consul at Warsaw
has arrived there.

STOCKHOLM, SEPT. 3.—The Daglight 411c1sanda
of yesterday says—" To-day we have again a pretty
clear day, after the most violent and constant rain
that we remember to have had for these 10 years.
The farmers universally complain that the ground is
so thoroughly wet as to hinder the sowing. The
wheat, it is said, may be considered as entirely de-
stroyed ; and what rye has been got in yields a very
scanty crop. In some parts in our neighbourhood
the rye has not been reaped. If the rain continues
during the harvest in these countries, such as East
and West Gothland, (where the summer crop is the
principal,) we may expect a very trying year."
DRESDEN, SEPT. G.—Lord Minto is gone back to
Toplitz, and Count Nesselrode is gone to Gorlitz,
where it is supposed he will wait the arrival of the
Emperor his Sovereign.
RIGA, SEPT. 7.—Accounts from Wenden of the
22d of August, say—" The rain is constant, with
only very short intervals. The rye is sprouting in
the fields and precautions to prevent it are vain.
About Neu Bilkenshof many fields of barley are so
inundated that only the tips of the ears are to be
seen above the water. Haystacks are in many places
half under water: Mill-dams have been broken
through, many bridges carried away, and other
damage done. In many places the late corn has
suffered by frost, which so early as the sth (17th) of
June, injured the potato holm, and on the 23d of
July (Aug. 4) the buckwheat.
ST. PETERSBURGH, SEPT. 4. The accounts from
the interior of the empire respecting the harvest are
very melancholy. At St. Petersburgh we have very
tine autumnal weather, after having had continual
cold rains; the late storm, which inundated part of
the city, did no great damage.

An Englishman, lately in Paris, a great
amateur of lions, bears, tigers, and other ferocious ani-
mals, became acquainted with Monsieur Martin, and
made frequent visits to his celebrated menagerie. Martin
had occasion to leave Paris, and in his absence he con-
trived, by bribing the keeper, to obtain his permission to
walk in the interior, and amuse himself by feeding the
animals through the cages. The keeper, who was busily
employed in serving out the food had forgotte❑ to close
the gate of the lion's den. The gentleman happening to
turn round, was horror-struck at perceiving his Majesty
of the Forest, stretching himself with a particular degree
of satisfaction within a few yards of him. Surrounded
by a high-wail, without arms, stick, or even an umbrella
to defend himself, his situation was ribt an enviable one.
A lucky idea struck him,—he had his snuff-box in his
hand, and threw the contents into the Lion's face, who,
in the most obliging manner, turned round to sneeze,
giving the gentlem,n an opportunity of slipping into the
den and closing the gate upon himself, remaining there
until the keeper returned and released him.

BURNS.—The topical applications employed
at the Westminster Hospital, are the turpentine stimulants
recommended by Dr. Kentish, bat especially by Mr.
Lynn, the senior surgeon, as at once the most philosophi-
cal, the most simple, and the most useful. The strength of
the application is made to vary according to the constitu-
tion of the patient, the nature of the part, and the extent
of the injury. The principle of Dr. Kentish is exactly
the same as that adopted by Dr. O'Halloran, Mr. Guth-
rie, and other surgeons, in the treatment of certain di-
seases of the eye. The inflammation consequent upon
burns, like that manifested in certain kinds of ophthalmia,
is of a specific kind, and not to be overcome by any direct
antiphlogistic process; the object of the surgeon then, by
the application of stimulants, is to substitute a simple in-
flammatory action, which is amenab!e to corinnon remedies,
for the morbid state which it is their object to remove.
The use of the turpentine and the basilicon unguent, has
been attended with the most beneficial results in the prac-
atgi,resee of
