THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 13, 1859,

We may reckon it at not less than forty and not
more than fifty. Perhaps the whole mystery is
explained by the circumstance that between thirty
and forty who were commonly accounted Liberals
voted with the Tories on Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S
resolutions, and but two or three Tories with the
Liberals. Liberals of this class might, how-
ever, vote again on the Conservative side, on
a merely party division, and so far, therefore, as
they enter into the calculation which gives the
Liberals their supposed majority, that majority
may not be available in a vote, direct or indirect,
of " no confidence."

It would seem to be, therefore, to the temper of
the new House that we must look in the first place,
in forecasting prospects. None of us, indeed, would
like to stake his reputation on a prediction of
what a party division in the coming session will be;
yet, we presume, few of us can avoid speculation
on the subject. Like the Austrians in Italy the
Ministry appears to us to have a very strong de•
fensive position, though they could not hope to
succeed in attack ; the rival Parliamentary forces are
so nearly balanced, that like those drawn up on the
parallel lines of the Sesia and the Dora Baltea it is
not easy for either to dislodge the other; while a false
move on either side would be a lasting advantage to
antagonist against whom it was directed. We have
not seen even a suggestion as to what the move could
be on the part of the Liberals by which they might
succeed in ousting their adversaries ; while there
appear to be several courses by which the Conser-
vative leaders might almost command the acquies-
cence of the new Parliament. Unless however, they
do take the best of these courses we should think
their fate is sealed.

We think so, because no reliance can be placed on
Liberal forbearance now. Liberals have been put
to the trouble, expense, and annoyance of an elec-
tion for voting as Liberals; that is one thing. They
will return to the House smarting under the cost of
a dissolution which they thought unnecessary.
Various patriotic reasons for anger with the disso-
lution may be talked of; but pocket patriotism, as
elections are conducted under open voting, will be
the embittering reason with great numbers. Besides
this, most of the less advanced Liberals will have
found that their constituencies will not put up with
Toryism in disguise. There will be a flow of popu-
lar sentiment into the House from the deference
which members must pay to those with whom they
have so lately been shaking hands. And thus, be-
tween anger at a dissolution, intended to keep their
party out of office, and which has chastised them so
sorely through their purses, and the first fervour
of electoral regeneration, the Government will, we
expect, have a much more united and hostile party
to meet than they had last session. Their own
party may be increased by a score or so, but they
have fused and amalgamated the opposite party in
the furnace of a hotly-contested, costly, and, as they
think, an unnecessary election.
Of course there is yet some hope for them in the
divided allegiance of the Liberals ; the ostentatious
separation of Lord PALMERSTON from Lord JOHN
RUSSELL on everything but the bare resolutions
will be doubtless prolonged. But can this be
counted on ? %Vill the Liberals longer endure it ?
%Vill they not even look out for some other leader,
if the ACHILLES and the AGAMEMNON of their
camp prolong a feud which is fatal to their common
objects ? If they cannot co-operate, their followers
will co-operate without them; for the great Liberal
party will certainly not be content to serve as a
minority when they might rule as a majority. Be-
sides, it was to escape from defeat, ever impending
through a union of these parties, that Parliament
was dissolved; it will, therefore, never do for Con-
servatives to trust again to a division of opponents,
which may disappoint them on the first convenient

occasion.
All seems, therefore, to depend on Ministers put

ting their antagonists in the wrong. They have
to meet a majority, which, if divided among them-
selves, will be united in anger against them, as well
as by the common desire for the Treasury benches.
They may, indeed, attempt to burke Reform for
this sesson ; but though members would like a
lease of two or three years, they know that Reform
must come, and will be unwilling to incur the sus-
picion of coldness on the subject. To try to evade
the question, through the lateness of the season,
when they have been the cause of its being so late,
will be certain to place them at the mercy of their
opponents ; and the foreign war, in which we are
to take no part, will altogether fail as an excuse.
We see, indeed, no means by which Ministers can
meet the number and the temper of their opponents,
but that of at once proposing their own Reform
Bill, and by making it one which must command a
majority of the House. It is for them to consider
what will be requisite to do that. They have
always one card which their opponents have not.
They can pass without difficulty through the Lords
what the Liberals could only force through by con-
siderable commotion without ; at the same time it
were vain to hope that the Liberal party would, for
this reason alone, accept any sham Reform Bill,
any scheme arranged to take with one hand what

it gave with the other. The plain truth is—sub-
stantial electoral reform is needed, and any Govern-
ment which aspires to rule the country must con.
cede that. By their next Reform Bill the Cabinet
of Lord DERBY will stand or fall.

ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLI

GENCE.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

COWES, MAY 12.
The annual general meeting of the members of the Royal
Yacht Squadron will be held at the Thatched-house Tavern,
on Saturday, the chair to be taken at one o'clock. There
are six candidates to be ballotted for at this meeting; and
the arrangements fer the regatta of 1859 will be made. Sir
Bellingham Graham, Bart., Lord Orkney, James Maxse,
Esq., P. Percival, Esq,, Captain Ponsonby, Sir Alexander
Bannerman, Bart., George Bentinck, Esq., M.P., R. N.
Harvey, Esq., and several other gentlemen have been at
the Squadron-house during the week.
YACHTS AT AND ABOUT THE STATION.—The Galley of
Lorn, the Marquis of Breadalbane ; Alca, Capt. Phillimore ;
Ella, Sir Gilbert East, Bart. ; Brunette, Col. Simmons
Smith ; Plover, Lieut.-Colonel Henry Brown ; Oak Apple,
H. H. Hammersley, Esq. ; and Edith, John Berners, Esq.
YACHTS FITTING OUT IN THE HARBOUR.—Gipsy
Queen, Sir Henry Bold Houghton, Bart. ; Magnolia, Sir
Henry Beecher, Bart. ; Zouave,- Richard Arabin, Esq. ;
Camilla, F. L. P. Astley, Esq. ; Zoe, Earl of Yarborough ;
Petrel, Philip Percival, Esq. ; Haidee, Henry Thorold,
Esq. ; Titania, Robert Stephenson, Esq., M.P. ; Bacchante,
Benjamin H. Jones, Esq. ; Caprice, Lieut.-Colonel Charles
Baring; Aurora, Le Marchant Thomas, Esq.; and Isis,
W. Halliday Cosway, Esq.

DEEPENING COWES HARBOUR.---A steam dredging
machine is to commence work on the gravel banks that at
present obstruct the navigation at low runs of tide.
EAST AND WEST COWES.—We are gratified to hear that
the means of communication between East and West Cowes
are soon to be materially improved. A company has been
formed for the purpose of constructing a steam floating
bridge, and operations have already commenced. Tho'
bridge, it is expected, will be at work this summer.
SUPPLY OF WATER TO TUE TOWN OF WEST COWES.
—The company's supply being deficient, the works have
been purchased by the Local Board of Health for £6,544,
about the original cost; and another reservoir is to be con-
structed.

CHEAP TRAVELLING.—In consequence of the very low
fares at which persons can get from London to the Isle of
Wight and back (3s. Gd., including railway, omnibus, piers,
and steamers), excursionists are daily arriving at Cowes by
hundreds. No time is wasted, and they disappear as fast
as they arrive, flying, as it were, over the island, then back
to the busy city. Fourteen steamers daily bring their living
cargoes into the harbour, and nine stage coaches are em-
ployed to convey passengers on to Newport, &c.

The Luxembourg journalsltate that at the horse
and cattle fair at Arlon a few days ago the demand for
horses was so great that unusually large prices were
given, and that out of 193 offered for sale 175 were sold.
The greater part were purchased by French dealers,
who were anxious to get such as were suitable for cavalry
and artillery. The journals add that the French are buy-
ing up horses in the duchy, and_ are. despatching them by_
railway to Xotzand.Straaburg. _ • -

VISIT OF THE QUEEN TO ALDERSHOT.-013
Saturday next, the 14th inst , the Queen will visit her troops
at Aldershot. Her Majesty, who will be accompanied by his
Royal Highness the Prince Consort, Princess Alice, and
suite, will leave Buckingham Palace early in the morning
on that day. The Loyal party will sleep in the Royal
Pavilion on Saturday night and Sunday night, and return
to Buckingham Palace on Monday afternoon.
DRURY-LANE ITALIAN OPERA.—The perform
ante of " Lucrezia Borgia," announced for this evening,
has been postponed, in consequence of the services of Madlle.
Titiens and Signor Giuglini being commanded by her Ma-
jesty the Queen for a grand concert at Buckingham Palace.
This is a satisfactory proof, if proof were wanting, of the
absurdity of the rumours as to Mr. E. T. Smith's disloyalty
in refusing some time ago a popular actor in his company
to attend a performance given by her Majesty at Windsor
Castle. The public, only half acquainted with the cir-
cumstances, jumped to a conclusion alike unwarranted by
facts or possibility. Mr. E. T. Smith, as manager of Drury-
Lane Theatre, is specially 'her Majesty's servant."
HYDE PARK.—The band of the Royal Horse
Guards will play, on Fridays, in Kensington-gardens, and
on Tuesdays in Hyde-park, between Rotten-row and the
carriage-drive, near the refreshment-room, from four till
six in the afternoon.
STOPPAGE OF AUSTRIAN MAIL PACKETS SAIL-
ING FROM TRIESTE.—The Austrian Postal Service by sea
between Trieste and foreign ports having been interrupted
by war, no letters or newspapers can, for the Resent, be
forwarded via Belgium (the first portion of the Trieste route)
to the lonian Islands, Greece, the Levant, or Egypt.
Letters, &c., for Bosnia, Servia, the Danubian Principalities,
fustchuck, Seres, Salonica, Sophia, Adrianople or Con-
stantinople, when specially directed to be sent " via Bel-
gium," will be forwarded from Vienna by the land route.
By command of the Postmaster-General. ROWLAND
HILL, secretary, General Post-office, 14th May, 1859.
BRADFORD.—Last evening a public meeting, con-
vened by the mayor, in compliance with a requisition signed
by more than 400 persons, was held in St. George's Hall,
Bradford, to memorialise the Queen in favour of non-inter-
vention in the European war. M. Kossuth was announced
to be present to address the meeting after passing the reso-
lutions. The illustrious Magyar urged "non-intervention
and an honest neutrality" on the part of England.
MANCHESTER.—We understand that a memorial
is in process of signature requesting the Mayor of Manches-
ter to convene an early meeting, to allow the inhabitants of
the city to impress upon her Majesty and her advisers the
wish of the people to maintain a perfect neutrality in the
struggle now going on in Southern Europe.—Manchester
Examiner.
SOUTHAMPTON.—At a meeting of the Southamp-
ton Town Council, en Wednesday, it was unanimously re-
solved to memorialise her Majesty in favour of the neutrality
of this country in the present war, and praying that Go-
vernment may embrace every opportunity to bring about a
settlement of the differences existing between the contend-
in- parties.
'THE CITY AND NON-INTERVENTION.—It is stated
to be the intention of an influential member of the Common
Council to move an address to the Queen in favour of non-
intervention. Arrangements have been made for holding
a meeting at the London Tavern this day week, to memo-
rialise the Queen in favour of the non-intervention of Eng-
land in the Continental struggle. The Lord Mayor will
take the chair, and several members of Parliament are ex-
pected to attend. Louis Kossuth will address the meeting,
and speak in support of the course proposed.
MANCHESTER FREE GRAMMAR SCHOOL.—The
high-mastership of this institution will be vacant in Sep-
tember next, by the resignation of the Rev. Nicholas Ger-
mon, M.A., the present high-master, who has been con-
nected with the school for the long period of nearly 40 years.
The school was founded 350 years ago by Hugh Oldham,
Bishop of Exeter, and the appointment of the master vested
in the President of Corpus Christi College, Oxford. It is
remarkable that four heads of colleges, who were contem-
poraries in the University of Oxford, were educated in this
school ; also two of the present bench of bishops.
OXFORD MIDDLE -CLASS EXAMINATIONS.--We
understand that the total number of candidates for exami-
nation this year exceeds 900. The examination will com-
mence in each of the following places on Tuesday, the 14th
of June at 9 o'clock a.m., and will be continued from day
to day until it is completed. The places where examina-
tions will be held are Oxford, London, Bath, Bedford, Bir-
mingham, Brighton, Exeter, Gloucester, Ipswich, Leeds,
Liverpool, Manchester, Nottingham, Reigate, and South-
am_pton.
VOLUNTEER RIFLE CORPS FOR BIRKENHEAD.—
Sir Edward Cust, of Leasowe Castle, or Mr. John Laird,
chairman of the Birkenhead Commissioners, is expected to
preside at a public meeting of the inhabitants of Birken-
head, which will be held next week, to consider the pro-
priety of enrolling a volunteer rifle corps in the township.
It is said that the list of applicants for admission into the
proposed corps already exceeds 100 of the principal gentle-
men resident in Birkenhead and its vicinity.
GREAT FLOAT AT BIRKENHEAD.—At the meeting
of the Mersey Docks Board, held at Liverpool yesterday, it
was agreed to accept the tender of Messrs. W. G. Arm-
strong and Co. for hydraulic machinery and steam-engines
in connection with the great float at Birkenhead, at a cost
of about £20,000. At the suggestion of the Birkenhead,
Lancashire, and Cheshire Junction Railway Company, it
was also agreed to expend £5,000 upon conveniences for the
accommodation of the goods traffic while the float was dry.
GOVERNMENT EMIGRATION. Her Majesty's
Emigration Commissioners chartered yesterday afternoon,
the 12th inst., the Lady Ann, 745 tons, to sail from Ply-
mouth for Adelaide, South Australia, at £l5 19s. per statute
adult, to be ready for the reception of passengers on such
day as the Commissioners may appoint between the 23d
and 30th of June. They have also given notice of their in-
tention to receive tenders next Thursday, the 19th inst., fur
a ship to proceed to Melbourne, Victoria, to be ready to sail
any day the Commissioners may fix upon between the 7th
and 14th of July.
A RISE IN LlFE.—William Henry Adams, Esq.,
of Boston, in this county, the new Attorney-General for
the colony of Hong Kong, ascended the social scale to his
present position thus :—Compositor, reader, reporter, sub-
editor, and newspaper proprietor, barrister, member of Par-
liament, colonial Attorney-General. Here is an example
under our own eyes of what a man with moderate abilities,
and a fair share of industry and energy, may accomplish in
this much-abused aristocratic England of ours,—Lincoln-
shire Times.
FATAL ACCIDENT TO A SOLDIER.—At the Cur-
ragh camp, Dublin, on Wednesday, while a firing party of
the 14th Regiment, under the command of an officer, were
shooting at a target, a private soldier, who was acting as
buttsman, was accidentally shot dead. The officer in com-

THE ROYAL DRAMATIC COLLEGE.—A proposal
has been made (originating, we believe, with Mr. Sams, of
St. James's-street) to increase the benevolent exchequer of
the Royal Dramatic College by the proceeds of a full-dress
ball, similar to that which has been attended with so much
success at the Opera Comique in aid of the " Societe de
Bienfaisance des Artistes Dramatiques." A number of
gentlemen interested in the drama, either as patrons or
members of the profession, have consented to act as
stewards ; and the list includes the names of Lord Tenter.
den, Lord William Lennox, Sir William de Bathe, Mr.
Balfe, Mr. Buckstone, Mr. B. B. Cabbell, Mr. Augustus
Egg, Mr. Planche, Mr. Robson, Mr. Benjamin Webster,
and many others. The admission is to be by vouchers, to be
had of the stewards, and the ball will take place on Wed-
nesday evening next at St. James's Hall. The object of the
promoters of the Dramatic College is so creditable, and the
means thus suggested of adding to the funds of the institu-
tion so agreeable, that a large attendance may be antici-
pated.

CONSUMPTION.—We stated several months ago
that the iodide of iron was an excellent remedy against all
affections resieting from debility of the frame, and that its
great defect, that of being so easily subject to decomposition
as to require immediate preparation at the bed of the pa-
tient, had been successfully removed by M. Gille, an emi-
nent chemist, who had succeeded in fixing this fugitive
substance by means of a strong coating of sugar. The
Avenir Medical now publishes two cases, from which it
appears tliarthelOaule of iron thus prepared is an exeeueuL
remedy against consumption. The first is the case of a
young man, aged 18, who, having in November last ob-
tained a situation as salesman in an extensive hardware
establishment, was discovered by his master to be labouring
under a complaint of the chest. Medical advice being pro-
cured, it was discovered that the lung on his left aide was
deeply affected ; his expectorations, moreover, presented un-
equivocal marks of phthisis. The treatment consisted in a
decoction of Iceland moss sweetened with syrup of codeine,
and three of Gille's pills of iodide of iron morning and
evening, after breakfast and after dinner. In the
course of eight days the patient presented symptoms of
considerable improvement ; the number of pills was increased
from six to twelve per day, and on the 24th December all
the symptoms of disease discovered by auscultation had dis-
appeared. The pills were continued at the rate of six per
day for a month longer by way of precaution, and since
then the patient has enjoyed perfect health. The other
case is that of a Madame Negnier, at Migne, in the depart-
ment of Vienne, who had often suffered from bronchitis,
which at length degenerated into acute phthisis. The
mother of the lady had laboured under a similar disease,
and several children of the family had died of it. After
various remedies, which proved ineffectual the iodide of
iron was had recourse to. During the first days the patient
seemed rather to suffer more from this treatment ; but about
the tenth day a marked improvement took place, and about
a fortnight later all the alarming symptoms of phthisis had
disappeared.—Galignani .

GUNPOWDER IN THE SKIN.--It often happens,
when firearms are discharged close to a person, that grains
of gunpowder get into the skin and cannot be removed
without many painful incisions. Dr. Kraus, in the last
number of the Clinique Europeenne, describes a method,
discovered by Dr. Busch, of Bonn, for removing them with
little inconvenience. The case in which it was tried is re-
lated as follows :—A young man having been fired at with
a pistol, had his face so densely peppered with grains of
gunpowder that it was found impracticable to remove them
by means of sharp instruments. Dr. Busch, recollecting
that corrosive sublimate had been successfully tried by Dr.
Hebra for the removal of freckles, resolved to try the same
remedy in the present case. He accordingly applied a solu-
tion of sublimate in the proportion of 5 grammes per litre
of water; but, owing to irritation of the part during the
first day after the occurrence, it had to be left off again.
On the following days, however, the patient was able to
bear it for several hours together, and on the fifth day a
considerable number of pustules appeared. The applica-
tion was then entirely suspended, and on the following
day some of these pustules dried up, while others formed
thin scales, under which a new epidermis had already been
formed. But, as this was still very tender, Dr. Busch
waited until the following day, when he removed all the
scales with a spatula, from the forehead down to the chin.
With the scales most of the grains of gunpowder came off,
being situated between the old and new epidermis ; some,
indeed, were so deeply lodged that they could not come out ;
but they were so few as to escape mere superficial obser-
vation, - :Whether this method would be applicable to
wounds of old date, atilt remaina to bo seen,—Galtgnani.

LATEST NEWS.

THE WAR IN ITALY.
Tbe following telegrams have been received al
Mr, Reuter's office :

GENOA, MAY 13.
The following order of the day has just been
issued by the Emperor Napoleon.
"TO THE ARMY OF ITALY.

" Sordiers,--I come to place myself at your head
to conduct ,ryou to the combat. We are about to
second the struggles of a people now vindicating its
independence and to rescue it from foreign oppres-
sion. This is a sacred cause which has the sym-
pathies of the civilised world. I need not stimu-
late your ardour, every step will remind you of a
victory. In the Via Sacra of ancient Rome, in-
scriptions were chiselled upon the marble reminding
the people of their exalted deeds.

"It is the same to-day, in passing Mondori,
Marengo, Lodi, Castiglioni, Arcole, and Rivoli.
You will in the midst of those glorious recollections
be marching in another Via Sacra.

"Preserve that strict discipline which is the
honour of the army. Here, forget it not, there are
no other enemies than those who fight against you
in battle. Remain compact, and abandon not your
ranks to hasten forward. Beware of too great
enthusiasm, which is the only thing I fear.
" The new armes de precision are dangerous only
at a distance ; they will not prevent the bayonet
from being what it has hitherto been—the terrible
weapon of the French infantry.
" Soldiers, let us all do our duty, and put our
confidence in God. Our country expects much of
you. From one end of France to the other the
following words of happy augury re-echo—
"' The new army of Italy will be worthy of her

elder sister.' "
