TEE ARMY.

Sixteen 40-pounder Armstrong guns, strength-
ened according to the new system, were yesterday
tested at the Arsenal butt, Woolwich, and the trial
proved satisfactory. The charges employed Were
161 b. of powder and a 40-pounder shot, which were
fired two rounds from each gun, and, the usual in-
spection and searching having been gone through,
the guns were ordered to be stored in readiness for
distribution as required in the service. The two
Whitworth guns proved last week at the Arsenal
butt are ordered to be forwarded to Shoeburyness
for experiments.

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITH'S

" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced In 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety, in bu
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhapny sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The.work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

FirATERMEN'S STEAM-PACKET COMPANY.

The 20th annual meeting of this company was
held yesterday at the London Coffee-house, Lud-
gate-hill—Mr. Francis in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN said he was sorry he could not
congratulate them on the satisfactory state of the
accounts, but he could say that the company had no
debts and no embarrassments. (Hear.) They were,
however, deficient in their receipts in consequence
of the inclemency of the weather.
The SECRETARY read the report, which stated
that the receipts during the past twelve months
amounted to £22,431 and the working expenses to
£25,383, showing a deficiency of £2,952, added to
which the amount of dividend (£1,492) paid on the
of
25th of November, 1859, made a total deficiency
£4,444 ; but deducting therefrom the balance

CAPE TOWN.

It appears that on the 20th ult. the first locomo-
tive engine ran upon this company's line from
Cape Town to Salt River, prior to the ballasting
of the line. It was expected that the railway
would be completed for traffic to Stellenbosch, a
distance of 30 miles from Cape Town, by the time
specified in the contract.

MADRAS IRRIGATION AND CANAL.
The third ordinary meeting was held at the
London Tavern yesterday; Mr. Thomson in the
chair.
The report stated that the directors had the
utmost confidence in the soundness and promise of
the Toombuddra project, and they were assured
that, with a continuance of that full and ready sup-
port which they had hitherto received from the
local Government, it would fully, justify the expec-
tations entertained of its merits. The directors
believed they would be enabled very shortly to lay
before the shareholders an accurate plan of the
whole work now to he carried out by the company.
The expenditure of the company, both in England
and in India, up to the 30th of September last,
amounted to £72,127, and the receipts on accoun t
of capital to the same period to £536,366, leaving a
balance of £464,239 in hand at that date.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said since the report had been printed they
had received advices of a later date, which informed
them that surveys and levels had been made, and
that the exact course of the canal had been deter-
mined. It was desirable that the whole of the
works should be carried out by the company, and
the consulting engineer of the Government and the
local Government were of that opinion. To carry
out the project additional capital would be required.
The works already constructed had greatly relieved
the distress of the country, and when fully carried
out could not fail to be a great benefit to
the province and a source of profit to the company,
as the average profit on water would be 15s. per
acre ; the Government would, however, take a part
of that. This statement must be taken a little
reserve, but as he had it on the authority of the
consulting engineer, it must be satisfactory to the I
shareholders.

Colonel ONSLOW seconded the motion.
The report having been adopted,
Mr, JONES made a motion which was discussed
and withdrawn.
The retiring directors were re-elected. and the
proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the
chairman.

AL LOUIS BL ANOS LECTURES AT TILE

AfARYLEI3ONE INSTITUTION.

Ile eminent and accomplished Frenchman who
lately made his debut as an English lecturer at
the Eyre Arms Assembly Rooms with such bril-
liant success, commenced last evening a course
of four lectures, at the Marylebone Institution,
on the " Salons of Paris in the Eighteenth
Century.".: The place was crowded by a very intel-
ligent and attentive audience. The lecturer dis-
played, upon this occasion, the same consummate
mastery of our own language, and the same skilful
management of anecdote and illustration, that were
so remarkable on his first appearance. He described
the peculiar habits of social intercourse that pre-
vailed in the fashionable and literary world of Paris
during the gay and giddy carnival of aristocratic
dissipation that preceded the outbreak of the revolu-
tion in France. The special excellencies of French
conversation its liveliness and versatility its
graceful ease and the absence of pedantry and dog-
matism in the brisk encounter of wits beneath the
agreeable presidency of the famous drawing-room
queens of that time—were dwelt upon by M. Louis
Blanc with his usual disciiminatien. He briefly
noticed the personal character and history of some of
the most influential and notorious of these women—
Madame de Tencin, Madame Geoffrin, Madame du
Deffand, and Mademoiselle Lespinasse ; touching
delicately enough upon the gross vices by which the
first of them, although a cardinal's sister and the
friend of a pope, dishonoured her rank and her sex.
The part which was played in this society by such
men as D'Alembert,llelvetius, and Fontanelle, with
whom Gibbon and Horace Walpole were also asso-
ciated, occupied a large share of the lecturer's
discourse. Many of the bons mots and characteristic
expressions which he related, though not told by
him for the first time, were told with so much
humour and vivacity as to give them back their ori-
ginal freshness. His serious comments on the levity
and shocking hollowness of that faithless, heartless,
and irreligious life in which the clever Pifrisians of
that day were content to indulge, on the eve of a
terrible storm of the revolution, inevitable as death,
made a deep impression on the audience, and in
speaking of the end of such a career of vanity as
that of Madame du Deffand, dying at 84 Tears of
age, incredulous of the reality of love, or virtue, or
God, in this universe, the lecturer applied a thril-
ling touch to the profoundest sympathies of his
hearers. His second lecture, next Wednesday, will
introduce Rousseau.

Only a moderate supply of beasts was on offer in our mar-
ket to-day. Prime Scots and crosses were in steady request,
at fully Monday's currency; but other breeds moved. off
slowly, on former terms. The show of sheep was by no
means extensive. There was a free sale for Downs and
half- breds, at extreme rates. Otherwise, the mutton trade
was in a sluggish state. Lambs—which came slowly to
hand—were inactive, except as regards the best breeds, at
Monday's quotations. There was a moderate inquiry for
calves, at previous rates. Pigs and mulch cows were steady
in price.

by this time a grandfather. Laid in some remote village of
France this time last year, it has lain ever since pickled in
lime water. They come over here by the million at a time,
and you don't suppose the Continental bens hold monster
meetings to suit the time of the exporter ?"—Once a IVeek.
" I cannot get on without the woman's hand,"
says John Bennett, in a letter to the Times, and he very
justly points to the Swiss watch, which is now rapidly tak-
ing the place of the English second-class watch. He cal-
culates that no lees than 200,000 of these watches are im-
ported or smuggled annually into England, whilst 187,000
is the whole produce of English watchmakers. In order
to discover the reason of their very cheap and beautiful
production of watches, he determined to go to Switzerland
himself, and the reason was soon apparent. He found that
no less than 20,000 women were employed in Neufchatel
alone in making the more delicate parts of the watch move-
ment,—not cooped up in squalid courts as the men are in
Clerkenwell, but in their own cotta"e homes on the
slopes of the Jura, overlooking the beautiful Lake Leman.

Ortega, when taken before the court-martial at
Tortosa, assumed a somewhat haughty bearing, and
read a well written protest to the effect that he was,
from his rank in the army, entitled to be tried not

but by one formed exclusively of generals. He was
however told that the protest could not be admitted,

be tried by an ordinary court ; and on that, it is

his cap, cried, " I will neither speak nor defend
myself. I will retire !" He was however detained,
and he afterwards in the course of the proceedings
declared that he cared little for life. Several of the
Carlist insurgents arrested in Biscay had been set

Madrid was expected about the 24th er 25th.
