being the only one It hien retains all the marked specialities
and distinguished favourites who originally gained the re-
putation of the company first in the Luited Stat, s, and sub-
sequently in this country, in ,857. No other company as-
sum:ng the title of Christy Minstrels possesses a single in-
dividual member of the least distinction who belonged to the
iginal troupe. The Christys (after an absence of five years)
return to London with their band strengthened and im-
proved in every respr:ce, their entertainment being unani-
mously pronounced bj the metropolitan press to be the most
sparkling in London.
Prices of Admission—.Yex and luxurious fauteuils, 55.;

NEW PATENT ASTRA BURNER,
With Circular Wick,
which for simplicity of construction, great brilliancy of light,
perfect combustion, and its entire freedom from heat, sur-
passes everything that has yet been introduced.

ASTIR LAMPS can be obtained from the
METROPOLITAN LIGHT COMPANY, 417, Strand,
and from all Ironmongers and Lamp Warehouses in Town
and Country; and the Patentee, 16 and 17, Commercial-
street, WhitechapeL

Tills Loan offers the opportunity of an investment both
highly remunerative and perfectly secure.
The acceptances or obligations of the Daira (Adminis-
tration of the private domain of his Highness Ismael Pasha)
have constantly been taken by capitalists in preference to
all other negotiable securities in Egypt, and they are gene-
rally discounted at a lower rate than even those of the State.
The great condencelaced in the engagements of the
liaira is due not only to the strict punctuality with which
they have been always met, but also to the increase of
value of the domain arising from the yearly development
of cultivation and the improvements successfully intro-
duced by an attentive and skilful management.
Under the able rule of the Viceroy large sums have been
expended, in a most useful and profitable manner, such as
the importation of oxen and horses, the purchase of ma-
chinery and implements for irrigation and other agricul-
tural purposes, for the cleansing and pressing of cotton,
also the building of stores, warehouses, farms, &c. It is
for the further improvement and development of the large
Possessions of the Viceroy, as well as for the repayment of
liabilities already incurred cn this account, that this Loan
Is chiefly required.
The general Bond for the snm of £3,387,300, signed by
tla Highness Ismael Pasha, and the legal Kachf (Deed of
-40rtgage) hypothecating 364,930 feddans of lands in
guarantee of this -Loan, will be depoaited at the Bank of

attitude taken up by Austria in the Duchies ques-
tioncisive declaration is said to follow that the Austrian
Government will never consent to the annexation of
the Duchies to Prussia. Adhering to previous obli-
gations, Austria will neither take nor suffer forcible
measures upon her territory, and if necessary will
even declare war against Prussia, provided the
latter Power openly violates Austrian rights, and
thus challenges opposition. In this case, however,
the entire responsibility for the breach of the peace
of Europe must rest with the State by which it is
provoked.
The recent councils of war are said to have shown
that au army of 400,000 men cau be placed in the
field at a very short notice, independently of a force
of 100,000 men, which is to remain in Italy. Arms,
clothing, and military equipage of all descriptions
are reported to be already provided, as well as a
sufficient number of horses. The only deficiency is
in the article of ready money. The financial ques-
tion, indeed, has formed the chief subject of serious
discussion in the councils. It is believed to have
been determined that the Bank shall in no case be
interfered with, further than, in the event of war,
payment of the instalments due this year from the
Government to that institution being for a time sus-
pended. A fresh emission of paper—Treasury notes
or war bonds—would, however, take place to meet
current expenditure.
Part of the garrison of Pesth has already reached
Braun, and is going on to Prague. Two batteries
of horse artillery and two Uhlan regiments stationed
at Temesvar have received the route for Vienna ;
they will reach here in the course of the week and
at once be sent northwards, from which it is con-
cluded that the Government does not consider it
necessary to place a corps of observation upon the
Moldavian frontier. Transylvania is being almost
entirely denuded of troops, the greater part of the
cavalry regiments in that province marching on to
Bohemia.

The Nene Preussische (Ifreuz) Zeitung of to-day
publishes the following, believed to be from an offi-
cial source :

"We hare to state a serious fact. Austria and Saxony
are arming; we have hitherto not done so. Where arma-
ments are entered upon in such critical situations, the full
weight of responsibility falls upon those who begin them.
They force the opposite party to counter-armament. Tho
first step is ominous, and it has been taken. Austria is
calling in her furlough men, and beginning to concentrate
troops in Bohemia and G-alicia. Saxony, independently of
accelerating the recruitment, has secretly ordered the re-
serves to be called under arms, and to join the army with-
out touching Dresden. In the case of Saxony this matter
need create no surprise, for Herr von Beust need not be
afraid of expense in the flourishing state of the finances
of that kingdom. She would be able to bear the war
strength of the army for a few months as easily as the
outlay occasioned by the circuitous route taken by the
Saxon contingent upon its retreat from Holstein. But as
regards Austria the case is different. The most pressing
necessity of bearing her financial strength in- mind is evi-
dent. The increase of regimental numbers and the move-
ment of troops cannot be effected without giving rise to
expense. Demonstrations for appearance' sake are there-
fore out of the question. Tho arguments must be under-
taken with the serious intention of waging war. No other
explanation is possible. In such a position it is incumbent
upon our Government to see that Prussia is not taken by
surprise. It must take care that the Austrian armaments
do not gain an advantage in point of time, so that, as in
1850, Austria may not suddenly stand forth fully equipped,
while no idea of such an eventuality is entertained upon
our side. It must be admitted that owing to the arma-
ments, the situation will become more intricate and
serious ; but, we repeat, the weight of responsibility will
attach to that party which has been the first to put forth
military threats."
