THE PUBLIC BEALTII.

(From the Quarterly Return of the Registrar-General.)
This return comprises the births and deaths re-
gistered by 2,197 registrars in all the districts of
England during the winter quarter that ended on
March 31, 1860 ; and the marriages in 12,402
churches or chapels, about 4,228 registered places
of worship unconnected with the Established Church,
and 631 Superintendent Registrars' offices, in the
quarter that ended on December 31, 1859.
The marriages at the end of the last year ex-
ceeded the usual number.

The first quarterly return of the year 1860 pre-
milts nearly average results. The birth rate is above
the average of the ten preceding winter quarters.
The death-rate is slightly above the winter average,
but below the rates of the two previous winters.
The weather in the beginning of January was
warm, but remained so cold and ungenial after-
wards as to retard vegetation and to swell the re-
turn of deaths. The prosperity of trade and the
sanitary improvements of towns produced a coun-
tervailing effect.

France will not change the situation of Switzer-
land.

The Moniteur also announces that the project of
law concerning the tariff for wools, cottons, and
raw materials was yesterday adopted by the legisla-

command of all Austrian corps d'armee in Italy has

Advices from Messina to the 28th ult. state that
perfect tranquillity, but general discouragement,
prevailed.

ber of individuals was spoken of,
Contradictory rumours were in circulation. It

tured by the insurgents; that the seat of Govern-
ment was about to be transferred to Messina ; that
the disembarkation of several insurgents had re-
stored courage to the others ; and that the garrison

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

To-day's market was seasonably well supplied with
beasts, amongst which were 160 oxen from Spain. All
kinds met a dull inquiry, and Monday's currency was
barely supported, the highest quotation for Scots being
4s 8d per 81bs. We have to report a heavy demand
for sheep, at, in most instances, a decline in ♦alue of 2d
per 81bs. Lambs, the show of which was moderate, changed
hands slowly, at from 5s 6d to 7s 4d per 81bs. Prime small
calves supported previous rates ; but inferior veal was dull,
and 2d per Blbs lower in price. The pork trade was heavy,
and the quotations had a drooping tendency. In miloh
cows very little was doing.

biliousness, loss of appetite, and lowness cf rpirits, so L•e-
quently prevalent in the spring, are all removed by a c'nir:e
of these purifying pills, which act so mildly yet so energeti-
cally, on the different organs of the body, that they never WI
in removing the disagreeable symptoms of indigestion above
enumerated. No noxious substance enters into the composi-
tion of these pills, hence everybody may take them with
safety. They act mildly on the bowels, strengthen the sto-
mach, and brace the nerves. They induce a healthy action in
the liver, and invigorate the whole system. In enfeebled, (le-
bilitated, and hardly-used-used constitutions they at once effect a
marvellous improvement, which day by day gains ground as
the pills are taken.

[AnvErerisrmr.s.r.] Holloway's Pills.—Headaches,
biliousness, loss of appetite, and lowness of spirits, so fre-
quently prevalent in the spring, are all removed by a oduree
of these purifying pills, which act so mildly yet so energeti-
cally, on the different organs of the body, that they never tail
in removing the disagreeable symptoms of indigestion above
enumerated. No noxious substance enters into the composi-
tion of these pills, hence everybody may take them with
safety. They act mildly on the bowels, strengthen the sto•
mach, and brace the nerves. They induce a healthy action hn
theliver, and invigorate the whole system. In enfeebled, de-
bilitated, and hardly-used constitutions they at once effect a
marvellous improvement, which day by day gains ground as
the pills are taken.

ROY AL ITALIAN OPERA.

The re-engagement this year of Madame Miolan-Car-
valho enables the charming opera of " Fra Diavolo," to be
again given, and on Tuesday evening it was played to a
full house, who received it with evident delight. The cast
this season is as follows :—Fra :Diavolo, Signor Gardoni ;
Lord Allcash, Signor Ronconi; Lady Allcash, Mdlle.
Corbari; Lorenzo, Signor Neri-Baraldi ; Matteo, Signor
Polonini ; Zerlina, Madame Miolan-Carvalho ; Giacomo,
M. Zelger ; and Beppo, Signor Tagliafico. Although differ-
ing in many respects from Madame Bosio's impersonation
of the part, Madame Miolan-Carralho's conception of
Zerlina is most charming. Finished as a vocalist and
actress, the character affords the opportunity for dis-
playing this artist's talents to the utmost advan-
tage. Vocally considered the air introduced at the com-
mencement of the second act was Madame Carvalho's
great triumph—it was sung in the most brilliant style and
with such marvellous finish, purity of intonation, and splen-
did execution, that it roused the audience to a pitch of de-
light which was not satisfied until the last verse had been
repeated. Mdlle. Corbari, as Lady Allcash, sang, acted,
and looked charmingly. Signor Ronconi, Lord Allcash,
is too well known to need comment, and it is only neces-
sary to state that on Tuesday his impersonation of the
pusillanimous nobleman was as droll and humorous as ever.
Of the choruses the opening one and that which concludes
the opera may be apecially mentioned for the skill with
which they were rendered. The pretty characteristic bal-
let in the last act was exceedingly well danced, and the
groupings throughout reflected the greatest credit upon the
stage manager, Mr. A. Harris.

Jo AIAJE6TY 's THEATRE.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—ln consequence of an article appearing in
the newspapers, that Mr. P ullinger, the defaulting
cashier of the Union Bank, had been mixed up with
" turf and theatrical spec ul ations," it was rumoured
that he was connected -with me in her Majesty's
Theatre and the Theatre' Royal, Drury-lane. May
I beg the favour of the u se ,of your columns for the
purpose of giving a denied to the same, as I have
no one connected with me in my management; and
I take this opportunity to :crate that I never knew
nor ever heard of Mr. Pull inger until I read the
rep art of his defalcations in tl le public journals, and
in one instance succeeded, as imagined, in tracing
the rumour to a source, and immediately directed
my solicitors to apply for a retr•actation of the im-
putation it. conveyed.
If you will kindly publish the answer they re-
ceived, it will at once becom.e evident that the only
available means of putting an end to the report is
to be found in your columns, and I shall be much
obliged by your early insertion of this and the in-
closed letter.

I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
Her Majesty's Theatre, May 2. E. T. SMITH,

" Spring-gardens, May 1.
" Gentlemen,—ln answer to your letter, which I
have got within this hour, I might observe that you
do not meation the name of any gentleman to whom
I have made the statement to which you allude.
" I can very safely assure you that I did not say
what your letter attributes to me ; but, as I desire
to be quite candid, I admit that I have repeated a
'report which reached me touching Mr. Smith, at the
same time mentioning my authority. If, therefore,
the report which has come to you has come through
me, you probably know already who was my autho-
rity. As far as lam concerned, however, I will
take any consequences upon myself rather than im-
plicate one who spoke to me in the confidence which
is implied in private conversation. At the same
time, as I do not disclose my informant, I have
every reason from your letter to suppose that he
was mistaken. I cannot hesitate for a moment to
express my regret at having been the means of
giving any further circulation to a report which I
have now the pleasure to believe unfounded, and
you may, of course, make whet use you think pro-
per of this letter.—l am, gentlemen, your very
obedient servant, " J. W. LYON."

Fraser's Magazine.

The present number of Fraser has several excel-
lent articles. It opens with an essay on " Compro-
mise," from the pen of G. Whyte Melville, in which
there is much sound sense and sober though melan-
choly truth expressed through the medium of a clear
and forcible style. We recommend all who are inclined
to reject the compensations offered to them by their
surrounding circumstances, to study its philosophy
and follow its advice. Shirley contributes a paper
on " Certain Aspects of Toleration," which has some
excellent remarks, although the part referring to
the Scottish ecclesiastical dispute is somewhat
tedious. " Gryll Grange" is continued. It is as
quaint and classical as ever. The seven weird
sisters figure prominently in it, and the conver-
sations of the chosen band of friends are as
heretofore replete with mythology, tradition, quo-
tation and reference. Sir'J. E. Tennents admira-
ble work on Ceylon receives a lengthened and care-
ful notice. It is remarked that the public have now
before them the " fifth edition of a book published
five months ago, descriptive of a country of which
till the appearance of these singularly successful
volumes, the ignorance that prevailed was almost
proverbial. In the course of a single season Sir
Emerson Tennent has made the name of Ceylon as
familiar as that of Italy, by the production of a work
in which he has embodied, in a form at once ency elo-
pdie and luminous, the result of years of un-
wearied
and well-directed research, combined with
minute and extended personal observation during
the period that he administered the Government of
the island." AK. H. 8., whose writings are now a
regular part of the magazine, contributes a very
entertaining essay on the dignity of the Duchess.
He attacks the theory which many uphold that a
work of solid thought and intrinsic value must ne-
cessarily be heavy and dull, and censures the
respectable prejudice which induces many persons
to look on a brilliant and interesting speaker or
writer as necessarily superficial and his eloquence less
to be relied upon than the ponderous periods of a
man greatly his inferior in point of intellect. The
writer, who, although sometimes tautological and
diffuse in his style is never guilty of dulness, has a
good right to express himself strongly upon the
matter. It is a very agreeable and well written
paper—an encomium which most of his essays de-
serve more or less. Mr. Theodore Martin's recent
translation of Horace receives a favourable criticisit,
which concludes by recommending him to attempt
an English version of other Roman bards. Mr.
Alexander Bain gives us a very able and thought-
full article on Phrenology and Psychology. It
shows great knowledge and careful study ;
but it is written in so clear and compre-
hensible a style, that the somewhat abstruse
subject is brought within the reach of the
general reader, who is not perplexed with.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

To-say's market was seasonably well supplied with
beasts, amongst which were 160 oxen from Spain. All
kinds met a dull inquiry, and Monday's currency was
barely supported, the highest quotation for Scota being
4s 8d per 81bs. We have to report a heavy demand
for sheep, at, in most instances, a decline in value of 2d
per 81bs. Lambs, the show of which was moderate, changed
hands slowly, at from 5s Gd to 7s 4d per Sibs. Prime small
calves supported previous rates ; but inferior veal was dull,
and 2d per Blbs lower in price. The pork trade was heavy,
and the quotations had a drooping tendency. In mil ch
cows very little was doing.

Enormous loss, enormous damage has been inflicted

MILITIA BILL.

On the motion of Earl DE GREY, this bill passed through
committee.

METROPOLITAN POLICE FORCE (DOCKYARDS,

BILL.

This bill passed through committee.
HERITABLE SECURITIES BILL.
This bill passed through committee.
TURNF IKE TRUSTS CONTINUANCE BILL.
This bill passed through committee.
MAYNOOTH COLLEGE BILL.

On the motion that this bill be committed,
Lord REDESDALE said, as the bill was drawn it en-
abled the trustees to apply the whole of the money voted
by Parliament for the support of the students, to
repairs of the college. He was sure that could not be the
intention of the promoters of the bill, and he thought some
alteration ought to be made to remedy such a defect.
The Duke of ARGYLL said the bill had the sanction of
the noblemen and gentlemen constituting the visiting body
to who Parliament had intrusted the affairs of the college.
Ye thought those authorities were well fitted to be trusted
with discretionary power.
After a few words from the Duke of LEINSTICK and the
Earl of 11111.70,
Lord REDESDALE said the object of the bill was to
enable the authorities to complete the unfinished college of
St. Patrick at Maynooth. He wanted to know how much
money it would take to eomplete those repairs.
The Duke of SOMERSET said the bill only empowered
the authorities to borrow a certain sum of money on the
security of the annual grant of £30,000, it did nothing else.
The house then went into committee.
Clause 1 was agreed to.
On clause 2 being read,

Viscount DUNditNNON objected to the largeness of
the sum to be expended in repairs, and if he was successful
in finding a seconder, he would move that clause 2 be
struck out of the bill.
Earl GRANVILLE defended the clause.

Viscoutlt DUNGANNON was strongly of opinion that it
was absolutely necessary to put down a certain sum to be ex-
pended in repairs of the College. If that was not done he
felt certain Parliament would be called upon at some time
or other for a further sum of money, to make good losses
that had been incurred through the expenditure upon re-
pairs. He should move that £15,000 be the sum to be ex-
pended upon the college, and no more. He objected
strongly to give the authorities indefinite power to raise
honey.

Mier a short conversation, Viscount DUNG ANNON with-
drew his amendment, and the bill passed through com-
mittee.

Upon the bringing up of the report Lord RI DESDALE
moved an amendment, which was agreed to, and the report
was received.

mittee, viz. :—Bank of Ireland, Weights and Measures

TOPOL.

Mr. H. SEYMOUR asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs, whether the British Government had au-
thorised the appointment of an agent at Sebastopol to watch
over the graves, at a fixed salary ; whether such Mary had
been paid by the Government, and to whom, and through
whom ; and, if so, why no agent had hitherto been there
