HAMBURG PAPERS.

BERLIN, DEC. 10.—The Paris Journals have re-
peatedly amused their readers with alarming accounts
of the health of our King, who happily enjoys at
present remarkably good health.
VIENNA, DEC.—Persons deserving of credit affirm
that we have 136,000 men in Italy, and it is pro-
bable that there are as many in the Tyrol, Vosal-
ling, and the other German dominions of Austria,
all ready for action, and so placed that they may be
speedily directed to any point where they may be
wanted. This number of troops is only about as
many as the Austrian contingent; but if it is true
that the Diet has called on the smaller States to
have their contingents ready, Austria cannot well
do less.
The Military Commission at Berlin will, it is said,
finish their labours by the end of the year, but no-
thing certain is known.—Hamburg Papers, Dec. 14.

It is a singular fact that the Board of Control,
as at present constructed, contains five Scottish gentle-
men, viz., Mr. CHARLES GRANT, the President; and
Messrs. ROBERT GORDON, STEWART MACKENZIE, R.
GRANT, and HOLT MACKENZIE, Commissioners. Mr.
C. GRANT and Mr. S. MACKENZIE are candidates for the
representation of Scottish counties. Mr. MACAULAY, the
Secretary to the Board, and the newly-elected ALP. for
Leeds, gains an increase of salary to the amount of 6001.
per annum by his translation from a Cornmissionership of
the Board to the office of Secretary.

CHARLES and Miss FANNY KENIBLE Con-
tinue to receive substantial evidences of their unrivalled
popularity in the United States. The theatres, whenever
these favourites perform, overflow before the commence-
ment of the performances. Miss KEMBLE is highly
esteemed by all the people of wealth and consideration in
every town they have thus far visited. We hope and
trust Mr. KEMBLE and his daughter, when they revisit
their native land, will return laden with golden opinions.

The Augsburg Gazette, of the 14th inst.,
contains the following letter of the sth from Ancona:—
" The proscription list is not yet completed ; for the Go-
vernment continues to issue orders for arrests and banish-
ments. M. GARIBOLDI, a merchant, and M. LESTI, a
lawyer, have lately received orders to leave the country,
but as they are conscious that they have nothing to re-
proach themselves with, they will not submit to banish-
ment, but prefer standing the test of a trial. A great
number of persons of all ranks have applied in their be-
half to the delegate and Gen. Cubieres. It is reported
that the Court of Rome had given orders to the police of
Ancona to arrest the 'seven Deputies who represented the
people of that town on the 3d June. But Gen. Cubieres
opposed this injunction by declaring that there was no
Papal Government at Ancona on the 3d of June, and
that, consequently, he considered the occurrence as if it
bad happened in France, where it is not contrary to law.
To-day the contracts for supplying the French troops
with provisions, &c., have been renewed. A few days
ago a conflict occurred at Ravenna between some Aus-
trians and the Swiss troops, which terminated in favour of
the latter, who soon after received orders to march to
Foi li."— Galignani's Messenger.

Mr. HUME addressed the assembly. He was re-
ceived with the loudest acclamations. He said that
the polling of this day was such as to give him the
greatest prospect of success. He had also received
a communication from his Central Committee, stating
that his name had been as high elsewhere. He had
no doubt that to-morrow's poll would be equally in
his favour. He could not believe that the people of
the county, who had displayed such noble energies
in the late struggle for the Reform Bill, would,
when about to reap the fruits of that Bill, show
themselves so inconsistent as to vote for a man who
was opposed to all reform—who would entirely pre-
vent all the benefits which he (Mr. Hume) and all
Reformers had hoped to effect by that Bill. The
present will be a convincing evidence how the minds
of the people are affected to reform and good go-
vernment, when a man like Sir C. Forbes, supported
by all the corrupt influence of the Tory advocates
for bad government, fails in attaining the object of
his hopes. He (Mr. Hume) was also sorry to
find himself opposed by a majority of the Church
party, leagued to oppose all Reform and its advo•
cates.—(" There's no chance for them.") He did
not know about that, but no man could deny that
there were fearful odds against a man like himself,
who was of no particular party, and was, therefore,
without the support of any party. The 'Squire-
archy and Magistracy of the county, too, had
adopted a course of action with respect to the can-
didates by no means impartial—(" Brentford to
wit")—but all these opponents he did not fear; it
was the people to whom he looked, and they had
answered his trust by placing him at the head of the
Never fear us.") In supporting his in-
terests they supported their own. If they chose to
desert him, it might be themselves who would
suffer, and not he. If rejected, he should certainly
feel one pain ; and that would be, to see those
electors who had, two years and a half ago, shown
their independence by electing him, now evince in-
consistency and fickleness in discarding him without
cause.—(Bravo! " We won't do any such sort of
thing !") If they returned him, he could only say
they would not have reason to repent their choice.
—(" We don't doubt you.") With respect to Sir
C. Forbes he wished to make an observation ex-
pressive of his astonishment, that one who, like him,
entertained such liberal views with regard to India,
should differ with him (Mr. Hume) so much in his
views with regard to England. He had often said to
him, " Why, Sir Charles, how is it that you
and I, who have such similar opinions about In-
dia, cannot go together on the subject of liberty
here ?" With respect to Sir Charles coming for-
ward here, he was convinced that he had been mis-
led—that the 2,400 voters who had promised Lord
Henley might be turned over to him like so many
sheep. He doubted that Sir Charles would find
himself mistaken ; but this was not the time, nor
was he the person to say anything on this point.
If he (Mr. Hume) were rejected, he might then en-
joy some years of peace and quietness, much of
which had hitherto not fallen to his share. He re-
gretted that candidates could not come before the
electors without in some way implicating their rival
candidates. He himself had been charged -with
coalescing with another candidate, which charge
he found had operated unfavourably to him in the
city and elsewhere. The coalition was said to be
with sir J. S. Lillie, but nothing could be a greater
mistake ; he had expressed his denial of such a coa-
lition twenty times, stating his determination to rest
his claims on his own merits, if he had any. The
idea of a coalition arose from placards which had
been distributed, calling upon electors to vote for
Hume and Lillie—Lillie and Hume. For his own
part, he considered it improper for any candidate to
express any opinion whatever of other candidates—
leaving that entirely to the electors ; and he did
not believe himself going too far in stating his be-
lief, that standing alone as he did, the electors would
place him high on the poll. If they did, they would
not have cause to complain of him,and their renewed
favour would encourage him to renewed exertions.
He could not promise them greater zeal in their ser-
vice— for that he Believed impossible.-7(Chnk-ld
cries of "So it is.") In codling artirthe Madge
had been very much amused, and'he would say
pleased, at seeing placards stuck about, classifying
him as a " Destructive ;" and as he said bef9cesNe
gloried in the title, if it meant, as it did, in cK.
tradistinction to the " Conservatives"—men who
would destroy all that was bad. The Conservatives
were those who wished to preserve expensive esta-
blishments, and consequent heavy taxation, and a
thriving Exchequer for the use of themselves.
The Destructives, if he was a specimen of that
party, wished to destroy that worst of all mono-
polies—the monopoly of the manufacture of Mem-
bers of Parliament. He himself had seen a Mem-
ber manufactured in half an hour by three Flips of
parchment being given by the borough-holder to the
nominee.--(A laugh.) As his excellent friend, Sir
Charles Forbes, said he wished to preserve all the
remaining parts of the Constitution, the only diffe-
rence was, that Sir Charles wanted to preserve the
bad parts of what remained, while he (Mr. Hume)
wanted to preserve the good parts, what few there
were, and to restore those that had been stolen, as
soon as he could. The people must not expect that
it will be possible to make the change from bad to
good Government all at once. He would do it as
soon as he could. He would legislate for the mil-
lions, voters or not voters, and would do his best to
lay the burdens on the right shoulders. He would
entreat the electors to remember how awful was
the charge reposed on them. They were the
Jurors for the country, and should remember their
oath. The poor were the more particularly in-
terested in obtaining Reform—in obtaining cheap
justice, and good Government. The rich were
more independent of such advantage, and, per-
haps, profited by the reverse of them. He, there-
fore, besought the people to preserve impartiality,
order, and decorum, and not lay themselves open to
the disgrace which had fallen upon the proceed-
ings at some elections. Mr. Hume concluded by
expressing his inability to address the electors at
this place to-morrow, having been expected to at-
tend at the hustings at King's Cross, to address the
numerous electors there assembled. He thanked the
electors for their support, and assured them, that
if they returned him, they would have no cause
to repent of their choice. Mr. Hume, before con-
cluding his address, said, that though unable him-
self to address them to-morrow, lie trusted that they
would give Sir Charles Forbes, if he should present
himself, a full and impartial hearing, that he might
frankly declare his sentiments, that they might fully
understand him, and that he and his friends might
not have the charge of impartiality to prefer against
any Middlesex electors.
Sir J. S. LILLIE thanked the electors for the
noble and independent feelings which had placed
him so high on the poll. He begged leave to
observe, with respect to the alleged coalition
mentioned by Mr. Hume, as put forth in the
placards, that he knew as little of those placards as
Mr. Hume. He would only observe, that thy elec-
tors who approved of Mr. Hume's principles would
