AUSTRIA.

The explosion of the powder magazine on board the Aus-
trian frigate Radetzky is one of the most calamitous maritime
disasters on record. A fire broke out in the charcoal
store, and was not discovered until it was too late to pre-
vent its reaching the powder. Three hundred and forty-
two lives were lost, including all the officers except one
midshipman. Only twenty-three persons were saved, and
of these five were Fevarely injured. So far as can be ascer
tained, the catastrophe was entirely the result of an accident.
The Radetzky, which was a magnificent vessel, was built
in England by means of subscriptions raised in Austria in
honour of the marshal whose name it bore.

[ADVERTISENIENT.j—Henceforth no one will doubt the valuable
properties of Du Barry's health-restoring Revalenta, Arabica
Invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of blessings
it has already received from Invalids whose position had been
deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope,
whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of
unsuccessful medical treatment. We quote from the "Gazette du
Midi," July 25th:—" Rome,.l uly 21, 1800. The health of the Holy
Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other reme-
dies, he has contined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta
Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal.
It has produced a surprisiug;y beneficial effect on his health, and
his Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly." We
