PROGRESS OF PARAGUAY.

Interesting information concerning the resources
of this remote country is supplied by Mr. Hender-
son, British consul at Assumption, in his last re-
port on the trade of the Republic. The amount of
the exports and imports for the last five years
shows a small increase in both during 1856, over
the preceding years. This is mainly owing to the
increased production and value of tobacco since its
introduction into Europe, and to the augmented
consumption of foreign manufactures. Nearly one-
half of the amount of exports, 106,0001., represents
produce sold or exported by the Government, which
leaves a sum of 122,0001. as the amount of ex-
ports by the trade. The imports on account of
the Government in war materials, machinery,
stores, &c., which have been very large
within the last few years, do not appear in
the official returns. The imports by the trade,
represented at 126,0001., according to the Custom-
house valuations, are worth about 25 per cent.
more, or 157,600/., making a surplus in the im-
ports over the exports by the trade of 35,400/.
The principal produce of the country for exporta-
tion is the Yerba or Paraguay tea. It is a mono-
poly of the Government, by whom it is principally
exported. Very little wood is exported, although
and is greatly in demand.
export to the trade is tobacco,
Tithae bomuonsdtsim in
important
etant country,
of which the Government only appropriates a small
portion. The demand has increased considerably
since its introduction into European markets, and
agriculturists find it to be the most lucrative pro-
duct of the soil. In 1854, about 2,600,000 lbs.
were exported ; in 1855, about 6,780,000 lbs.; in
1856, upwards of 5,000,000 lbs. Hides, raw and
tanned, form the only other article of export of any
importance. The opening of the river navigation up
to the Brazilian province of Matto Grosso, will
doubtless in time have a favourable effect on the
of Paraguay. Several vessels
commercial policy
have already proceeded to the port of Albuquerquo
with considerable cargoes of merchandise, both from
Buenos Ayres and from Assumption ; but as yet
no positive or reliable information his been ob-
tained of the commercial capabilities or of the pro-
duction of Matta Grosso. The total number of
vessels entered at the port of Assumption was 171,
being an increase of 20 upon the preceding year ;
the official value of the cargoes was 126,2111. Tne
clearances amounted to 190, being an increase of
46 ; value of exports, 228,6281. Three-fourths of
the shipping was under the Argentine flag, and the
national and Uruguayan flags compromise the
greater part of the remainder, though there were
also vessels under the British, French, Sardinian,
and Brazilian flags. These statistics are interest-
ing, from the limited knowledge of Paraguay,
and encourage the liveliest hopes that the great
resources of the country will soon be available to
the commerce of the world.

PORTUGAL.

A Lisbon letter relates the following anecdote
exemplificative of the devotedness of the young
Xing of Portugal in one of his visits to the military
hospital :—" Approaching a bed on which was
'Ting the trumpeter of a cavalry regiment, he
Steeped down, and throwing his arms round the
alluost inanimate body of the patient, cried
Out with a firm but kindly voice : " Cheer
„slip) friend, cheer up ! You are not going
die yet. Take courage I I am sure I shall
ZuO of these days hear the sound of your
is!°,lflpet iinder the windows of my palace !' The
..1(34 man seemed to rouse up at the sound of the
young Ring's voice, his eyes opened, and a faint
hal°,l4 rase to hischeek. He pressed his sovereign's
11,4 ia to'ken of gratitude, and from that moment
vi'ved., to existence, and he is now not only out
of danger, but recovering rapidly." We believe we
oat state-that the Emperor of the French has been
liv,Y. "r-U9lc by the-courage and devotedness displayed
" the King of Portugal during the whole of the
"visitation of the llow fever that his Majesty has
Charged Count Walewaki, Minister of Foreign
.&ffairs, .to transmit to the King, through Baron
de Paiva, Portuguese Minister, the expression of
his sincere admiration.

PRUSSIA.

• A:letter from Berlin of the 4th says :—" We are
assured that the Senate of Hamburg has prayed
the ...Pruisian Government to assist that city in the
financial alamity which has befallen it. M. Yolk.

day to Haniburg, and it is said that his journey

The news, from that: place is received here with
feverish disquietude."

AUSTRIA.
A letter from Vienna of the 3d in the Lloyd's of
Death says :--" It has been alleged that it was the
representative of Turkey, Fuad Effendi, who pre-
vented the thres Principalities of Moldavia, Wal-
litchi a, and Servia from signing the treaty relative
to the navigation of the Danube. We believe, how-
ever, that it wan A.untrix in pdrilouT,lll?' which op-
posed the claim of the Principalities, and that it
was she, in conjunction, it is true, with the Turkish
representative, who prevented them from signing.
Austria took her stand on the principle that the
power of signing treaties only belongs to sovereign
States, and she was anxious to prevent the esta-
blishment of a precedent in favour of the Princi-
Palitiesi which might have serious consequences."

PORTUGAL.
.4 Lisbon letter relates the following anecdote
"eniplificative of the devotedness of the young
King of Portugal in one of his visits to the military
hospital :.—g‘ Approaching a bed on which was
Stoopedalmost inanimate
down, and throwing his arms round the
"a:ll°st inanimate body of the patient, cried
out with a firm but kindly voice: " Cheer

"1.0331 pet under the windows of my palace !' The
Rick man seemed to rouse up at the sound of the
3'c:fling King's voice, his eyes opened, and a faint
colour rose to his cheek. He pressed his sovereign's

can State that the Emperor of the French has been

by the King of Portugal during the whole of the
'visitation of the yellow fever that his Majesty has
Charged Count Walewski, Minister of Foreign
Affairs, to transmit to the King, through Baron
de Paiva, Portuguese Minister, the expression of
his sincere admiration.

THE ITALIANS IN HA MBUGRU.

(From a Correspondent of the lifusieal World.)
The Piccolomini and Giuglini troupe, as you already
know, have been giving concerts and operatic perform •
. ances Hamburgb. The success of the Italians at our
theatre was decided. Here all classes of the community
congregate, and here the company from her Majesty's
Theatre achieved one of the greatest "bits" in my recol-
lection.
I attended the performance of "Il Trovatore " last
night, and on the whole was greatly please& Madlle.
Piccolomini essayed the character of Leonora for the
first time, and in many respects surpassed expectation.
I need not inform you original this young lady's notions
are in all she undertakes, and you may surmise that she
found many new effects, and that her performance dif-
fered materially from her predecessors. The first move-
, went of the cavatina, " Tacea la notte," was most expres-
sively sung, and accomplished by that earnest truthfulness
of gesture for which Mdlle. Piccolotninee acting is
always remarkable. The cabaletta is somewhat too
florid for her style, and consequently not quite so effec-
tive as the slow movement. The audience, however,
appeared thoroughly gratified, and Mar. Piecolomini
was recalled at the end. The trio for the Count,
Manrico, and Leonora, did not create a profound im-
pression, and the first act terminated somewhat coldly.
In the second act Mdlle. Piccolomini produced new
effects in the finale, which took the audience by surprise,
and the curtain fell amid applause from all parts of the
house, and a general recall for the artists.
In the third act Signor Giuglini created a furor in the
declamatory "Di quella pira," which he gave with im-
mense power. The house " rose at him," encored him
tumultuously, and recalled him three times. He also
delighted everybody with the beauty of his voice and his
expressive singing in the air, "Ah ! ben min !" The
act terminated in a genuine triumph ; and I have rarely
seen a more excited audience out of Italy.
The fourth act was Mdlle. Piccolomini's great achieve-
ment. Here she surpassed herself in the estimation of
all who had previously seen and heard her. The duet
with the Count was a great success, and her repetition
of the word " Vivra, vivra," enraptured the house.
Even with the last scene of the " Traviata" and the
" Martini" fresh in the memory, you could have formed
no previous notion of this display. She was recalled at
the end once, twice, thrice—indeed I forget bow many
times. The " Miserere," and the subsequent duet
with Giuglini were equally happy, and the death-scene
was worthy of any actress I have seen. The sensation
at t'se end was prodigious.
Oue feature in the demonstration was altogether
strange to an English theatre. Several times during the
evening, when the favourites were recalled, a flourish of
trumpets proceeded from the orchestra and added greatly
to the excitement of the scene. Ido not think I exag-
gerate when I state that Wile. Piccolotnini and Signor
Giuglini were outumoned forward thirty times !

COLONIAL.
Tze.—The market is very quiet. Good common oongou,
however, realises 114 d per lb. cash.
SUGAR.—There is a very limited demand for all descrip-
tions, and no transactions of any importance have been re-
ported ; prices, however, have a slight downward tendency.
In the refined market, prices remain steady, has the de-
mand for dried goods is not quite so active, but pieces and
wet lumps sell readily at about previous quotations.
COFFILE.—The market continues inactive, but prices are
steady. During the week the . quantity announced for
public sale is not large, and prices are not expected to ex-
hibit much variation.
RICE.—A. very limited amount of business has been
done, but holders do not press sales, and only small parcels
have changed hands, at about previous rates.
Rum.—The market is quiet, with little business doing
at former quotations.
FRUlT.—There is a fair demand for new currants at
about previous rates, but the transactions have been un-
important considering the advanced period of the season.
SALTPETRE—There has been a moderate enquiry for the
better qualities and steady rates are current. 10/ per cent.
refraction, is quoted 35s 6d, and 8 per cent., 38s 91 per
cwt.
TALLow—The market is rather easier. P.Y.C. on the
spot is quoted 51s 3d, 51s 6d, and January to March
delivery 52s per cwt.

T&TTERSALL'S -MONDAY.

A larger attendance than usual at this period of the
year caused the besting to be resumed with some show
of briskness. For the Two Thousand 6 to 1 was cur-
rently offered on the field ; 8 to 1 was taken about
Clydesdale, 10 to 1 each in one bet was booked about
Happy Land and Toxopholite, and 10 to 1 was laid
once against Lord of Lorn. The investments were,
however, too small to demand a formal quotation.
The Derby betting was carried on rather spirited, the
meeting of Parliament having brought some backers of
horses to town. The pfces showed no material altera-
tion from those previously given. They are as
