FRANCE.

The news given in several foreign journals of M.
Thouvenel having sent a diplomatic circular, giving
reasons for a continued occupation of Rome by a
French army, is said at the Foreign Office in Paris
to be untrue.

Letters from Marseilles say that detachments to
reinforce the army of Rome are continually em-
barking.

Baron Gros, the late French Plenipotentiary in
China, arrived at Manilla on December 22, on
board the Duchayla, and left on the 28th for Sues.
He is expected to arrive in Paris very shortly.
The Corps Legislatif, on Monday, annulled two
elections in Upper Savoy for illegality. The Pre-
fect had only kept the poll open one day, whereas
the law prescribes two.

A new gunboat, constructed on a very novel
plan, is expected in Paris from the ironworks of
La Ciotat, near Marseilles. It is oval in shape, and
constructed on the angular target principle, so that
a shot cannot strike its side at right angles, and
must consequently slant off. Experiments are
expected to take place before the Emperor, at St.
Cloud.

BOURSE, Feb. 2.—The market has been heavy,
and, stock having been rather offered, prices are

BELGIUM.

The report of the committee of the Belgian
Chamber of Representatives charged to examine
the proposition of M: Dumortier for giving French
gold coins a legal currency in Belgium at their
nominal value, has just been distributed to the
members. The committee in its examination, has
found itself in presence of four systems, which are
thus described :

" The first of those systems was set forth in
the following proposition French gold shall be
received in the public offices at a rate to be fixed
by the Government every six months, according
to the price in the Belgian money markets. The
Government may, however, modify the rate when
it shall think proper. This proposition was, after a
long discussion, rejected by a majority of four to
three. The second sy stem was contained in the fol-
lowing words It is decided to give legal cur-
rency to French gold at a rate to be determined by
the Legislature not oftener than once a year. This
was rejected by a majority of five to two. Tne
third, which was warmly opposed and rejected like
the other two, proposed a Belgian gold coinage of
of 8-10th fineness. The fourth proposed that the
French gold coins which in the proportion are
made of one kilogramme of gold to 15 kilogrammes
and a half of fine silver should De admitted at
their nominal value as a legal tender so long as
they should retain their currency and value in
Fume, It proposed, moreover, to authorise the

Government to coin 20fr. and 40fr. pieces in con-
formity with the monetary law of 1832, and of
10fr. and sfr. pieces of the same weight and di-
mensions as those of that value in France. This
system was also rejected, as was also the propo-
sition of M. Barthelemy Dumortier, by a majority
of four to three."

No system can be either developed or supported as
being adopted by the Central Committee unless a
unanimous opinion is come to on one point—that
it is urgent and necessary to make a change in the
present monetary situation. This is not enough,
in our opinion, and we cannot but express our
regret at seeing it present itself disarmed before
the discussion which is about to open, when a clear
and definitive decision was expected.

.ZPECTACLES.-SIGHT AND HEARING.-
DEAFNESS. —A newly-invented instrument for ex-
treme cases of deafness, called the SOUND MAGNIFIER,
Organic Vibrator, and Invisible Voice Conductor. It fits so
into the ear as not to be in the least perceptible ; the unplea-
sant sensation of einzing noises in the head is entirely re-
moved. It affords instant relief to deaf persons, and enables

them to hear distinctly at Church and at public assemblies.
Every other kind of hearing instruments. Messrs. SOLO-
MONS have invented spectacle lenses of the greatest trans-
parent power. The valuable advantage derived from their
invention is, that vision becomes preserved and strengthened ;
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the
most minute occupation, can see with these lenses of a much
less magnifying power, and they do not require the frequent
rhanges to the dangerous effects of further powerful assist-
ance.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York

DR. KAHN on MARRIAGE.—A new and
entirely re-written Edition (the 4tith) of this celebrated
Treatise, with new Steel Plates, Woodcuts, &c., is now ready.
The object of the work is not to maintain any particular
hypothesis, but to enable every one to understand for himself
the structure •and functions of the organs concerned in the
fulfilment of the physical obligations of the married state;
to acquaint him with the consequences arising from excesses ;
to prevent unnecessary misapprehension from unfounded
fears, and to indicate, when those fears are well founded, the
means of speedy relief. The work is not crowded with the
technicalities of ordinary professional books, nor does it pre-
sent the crudeness which characterises the so-called "popular
works" on the subject.

A meeting of the Oriental Inland Steam Com-
pany was held yesterday, Col. J. Grimes in the chair, when
the report was adopted after a protracted discussion. The
point principally referred to was a trial by 'Messrs. Penn
and Napier and Captain Small of the new steamer Jumna
and train which took place on the Clyde on the 30th of last
month. It appears from their report that a satisfacloi y
rate of speed was attained, and that by a few small altera-
ticns an increase can be effected. It also appeared that
there is no difficulty in steering
or managing the train.
Captain T. 0. Eustice, formerly in the service of the Indian
navy o n the Indus, likewise reports in favour of the appli-
cability of the train system to the navigation of that river.
A meeting of the Southampton Dock Company

,4 GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex -
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in bus
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

THE PRICE OF GOLD.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 2i per mine prem.,
and the short exchange on London is 25.324 per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
rather more than 3-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in
Paris.

By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4244 per mark,
and the short exchange on London is 13.6 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg.
....

The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 1015- to 107 per cent., which, as compared
with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the
exchange is against England. The present rate, however,
leaves no profit on the transmission of gold to the United
States.

Sir James Duke paired yesterday with Mr. R.
Brooks.

We read in the Malta Times of the 14th:—" Our
readers will be glad to learn that Ruggiero Settimo, Prince
of Fetalia, at present residing amongst us, the noblest, per-
haps, of all the men who have ever suffered for the Italian
cause, has been called by the King to the chair ofPresident
of the Upper House of the Italian Parliament. The ap•
pointment, however, it is feared, is purely nominal; as it
is not likely that the good old man, from his great age and
infirmities, will be able to avail himself either of his nomi-
nation or of the means of conveyance—a Sardinian frigate.—
which has been placed at his disposal. It is well, however,
that even in his last place of refuge Ruggiero Settimo
should live and die the titular head of the first Italian Par-
liament."

SIR BENJAMIN BRODIE.—We hear, on the best
authority, that the hopes entertained of the restoration of
sight to this eminent surgeon are not to be realised. Prior
to the late operation the distinguished German oculist con-
sulted in the case had expressed an opinion that the retina
behind the cataract would be found to have retained its
integrity; but a month has passed since the removal of the
lens and no amendment whatever has taken place. Objects
of any kind are totally undistinguishable, and almost light
from darkness. I n other respects, it is satisfactory to state
that Sir Benjamin is in good health, and bears his misfor-
tune with becoming fortitude,—Medical Circular.

A meeting of the Oriental Inland Steam Com-
pany was held yesterday, Col. J. Grimes in the chair, when
the report was adopted after a protracted discussion. The
point principally referred to was a trial by Messrs. Penn
and Napier and Captain Small of the new steamer Jumna
and train which took place on the Clyde on the 30th of last
month. It appears from their report that a satisfactory
rate of speed was attained, and that by a few small altera-
tions an increase can be effected. It also appeared that
there is no difficulty in steering or managing the train.
Captain T. 0. Eustice, formerly in the service of the Indian
navy on the Indus, likewise reports in favour of the appli-
cability of the train system to the navigation of that river.
A meeting of the Southampton Dock Company
took place yesterday afternoon, when the proposed dividend

BELGIUM.

The report of the committee of the Belgian
Chamber of Representatives charged to examine
the proposition of M. Dumortier for giving French
gold coins a legal currency in Belgium at their
nominal value, has just been distributed to the
members. The committee in its examination, has
found itself in presence of four systems, which are
thus described :

" The first of those systems was set forth in
the following proposition :—' French gold shall be
received in the public offices at a rate to be fixed
by the Government every six months, according
to the price in the Belgian money markets. The
Government may, however, modify the rate when
it shall think proper. This proposition was, after a
long discussion, rejected by a majority of four to
three. The second system was contained in the fol-
lowing words:—' It is decided to give legal cur-
rency to French gold at a rate to be determined by
the Legislature not oftener than once a year. Phis
was rejected by a majority of five to two. The
third, which was warmly opposed and rejected like
the other two, proposed a Belgian gold coinage of
of 8-10th fineness. The fourth proposed that the
French gold coins which in the proportion 'are
made of one kilogramme of gold to 15 kilogrammes
and a half of fine silver should be admitted at
their nominal value as a legal tender so long as
they should retain their currency and value in
Fame. It proposed, moreover, to authorise the

Government to coin 20fr. and 40fr. pieces in con-
formity with the monetary law of 1832, and of
10fr. and sfr. pieces of the same weight and di-
mensions as those of that value in France. This
system was also rejected, as was also the propo-
sition of M. Barthelemy Dumortier, by a majority
of four to three."

No system can be either developed or supported as
being adopted by the Central Committee unless a
unanimous opinion is come to on one point—that
it is urgent.and necessary to make a change in the
present monetary situation. This is not enough,
in our opinion, and we cannot but express our
regret at seeing it present itself disarmed before
the discussion which is about to open, when a clear
and definitive decision was expected.

POOR MISS SMITH.—The cruellest case of blight
that I ever heard was that of Florina Smith. An officer of
militia had long been the object of her youthful dreams, and
she looked in vain for the moment when he, should declare
the passion which she was convinced burned within himt
The moment came at last; the volcano burst into flame.
One morning she received a letter beginning my Dear
Miss Smith,,, and couched in unmistakeable language. It
was brought by a boy, who waited for an answer. She
selected the neatest sheet of pink paper, poured forth a
Modest, yet delighted assent, and gave it to the messenger
with her own hand. Then she awaited the lieutenant. She
Waited that day and the next. He came not. She refused
exercise, and remained at home a third day. He came not.
week passed, and he came not. A fortnight, and he came
not. At last she ventured to write, and she received an
answer My dear Miss Smith,—lt is all the fault of that
bnY. He took the letter to the wrong house. Deeply as I
regard and respect you, I must not conceal from you that
11.137 letter was intended for the daughter of Colonel Smith;
and I am sure that you, who in your note assured me that
my happiness was your soul's desire, will be glad to hear
Wit-;
It at least secured.—I^ am yours, very siucersly,

THE PRICE OF GOLD.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 211 per mille prem.,
and the short exchange on London is 25.32 i per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
rather more than 3-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in
Paris.

By advie,ca from Hamburg the price of gold is 424 per mark,
and the short exchange on London is 13.6 per £1 sterling,.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
6-10ths per cent.. dearer in London than in Hamburg.
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 106; to 107 per cent., which, as oompared
with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the
exchange is against England. Tito present rate, however,
leaves no profit on the transmission of gold to the United
States.

Sir James Duke paired yesterday with Mr. R.
Brooks.

We read in the Malta Times of the 14th:—" Our
readers will be glad to learn that Ruggiero Settimo, Prince
of Fetalia, at present residing amongst us, the noblest, per-
haps, of all the men who have ever suffered for the Italian
cause, has been called by the Kirg to the chair of President
of the Upper House of the Italian Parliament. The ap-
pointment, however, it is feared is purely nominal ; as it
is not likely that the good old nun, from his great age and
infirmities, will be able to avail limself either of his nomi-
nation or of the meaas of conveyaace—a Sardinian frigate--
which has been placed at his disposal. It is well, however,
that even in his last place of refuge Ruggiero Settimo
should live and dic tho titular held of the first Italian Par-
liament."

SIR BENJAMIN BRODIE.—We hear, on the best
authority, that the hopes entertained of the restoration of
sight to this eminent surgeon an not to be realised. Prior
to the late operation the distingushed German oculist con-
sulted in the case had expressed n opinion that the retina
behind the cataract would be found to have retained its
integrity ; but a month has passel since the removal of the
lens and no amendment whatever has taken place. Objects
of any kind are totally undistingtishable, and almost light
from darkness. In other respects, it is satisfactory to state
that Sir Benjamin is in good health, and bears his misfor-
tune with. becomipg fortitude,—lfecficai circokir.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER, MONDAY.
There was not a great amount of speculation on future
racing events :to-day ; the settling upon the past Lincoln
Meeting occupying the greatest share of attention. Very
few missed laying against the winner of the handicap,
although on Saturday he was so little thought of that 20
to 1 was laid against him.—For the Great National Steeple
Chase, Franc Picard, Jealousy, the Emperor, and Old
Ben Roe were supported, and an offer was made to take
100 to 7 about Anatis. For Chester Cup 10 to 1 would
have been taken against Chere Arnie, but no one seemed
inclined to lay it.

21.1EX1C.A.N B ONDBOLDERS.

The following is from the Committee of Mexican
Bondholders. It is calculated, from the evidence
it gives of the efforts of the foreign Powers in the
interest of the Pope to aid the cause of the crimi-
nals who have just been overthrown, to increase the
regret long felt by all friends of civilization and
commerce at the neglect of our Foreign-office to
give moral support to the constitutional cause.
The disunion in the United States, of course, greatly
increases the audacity of those who desire a return
of anarchy in Mexico, and if their wishes should be
crowned with even partial success, and murder and
rapine again sweep the Republic, much of the re-
sponsibility will, with good reason, be thrown upun
the British Government :
" The committee have received a letter, via the United
States, from Mr. IV4itehead, dated Mexico, the 18th ult.
Senor Juarez made his entry into the capital on the 11th
ult., and a few days later passports were sent to the Spanish
Ambassador, the Pope's Nuncio, and the Ministers of
Guatemala and Ecuador on the general charge of having
favoured the other party. The French Minister appears to
have resented this on behalf of the Pope, and though he had
not yet recognized the present Government, and had, there-
fore, no diplomatic status, it is said that he had given
asylum to a number of individuals of the other party. A
good deal of difference prevailed on this and other matters,
and the resignation of the Ministry was talked of. Mira-
mon had so far avoided capture. Mr. Mathew, who re-
mained at Jalapa, had reminded the Government of the
British claims on that personage, and a judge had been ap-
pointed to inquire into the robbery of the £600,000 dollars,
and bring all concerned to punishment. Vicario at Ygnala
and Mejia at San Luis, continued at the head of reactionary
bands, and some considered that there was as great need of
foreign intervention as ever. Nothing had been decided
as yet about a conducta to Vera Cruz."

THAMES.

A REGITLAR GAOL-BlRD.—Mary Donnelly, alias
Kearney, alias Sullivan, a masculine-looking woman, about
40 years of age, of very strong passions, and who has been
in the practice of using remarkably strong language,
was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing a
piece of beef, value 25., from the shop of Mr. Smith,
butcher, of Carlisle-street, IN hitechapel.
The prisoner has been committed from this court about
100 times for assaults, drunkenness, and disorderly con-
duct; and although a premium was actually given to her
to keep out of prison by some philanthropists, and every
possible attempt has been made to reform her, she has
proved to be irreclaimable, and has lately taken to dis-
honest courses. Last night she took a piece of beef from
Mr. Smiths shop-board, and ran away with it. A poor
Irish lad named Patrick McCarthy gave immediate infor-
mation of the robbery, and joined Mr. Smith's shopman in
the pursuit that was made after the prisoner, who was over-
taken in Mill-yard, and the beef she had stolen was takes
from under her shawl. Sho walked back to Mr. Smith's
shop with a police constable, No. 80 11, and she then took
up some mutton chops and pelted the butcher's wife with
them. It was with difficulty she was prevented doing
further harm to the butcher and his wife.
Mr. Yardley to the gaoler—She has been here before,
Roche ?

Roche—Very often, sir.
The prisoner kept lip a running commentary upon the
evidence, and occasionally abused the witnesses. When
Mr. Boadler, the second clerk, had completed the deposi-
tions, and read them, she was asked if she was guilty or
not guilty, or would elect to be tried at the sessions. She
exclaimed, " Settle it hare any how, and don't give me much
for that small piece of beef."
Mr. Yardley—Are you guilty or not guilty ?
The prisoner—Guilty, to be sure.
Mr. Yardley sentenced the prisoner to three months' im-
prisonment and bard labour.
The prisoner abused the magistrate, the gaoler, and the
witnesses in the most horrible manner directly she heard
the sentence, and said she was so much accustomed to im .
prisonment that she could do three months on her head.

Green-room gossip mentions that a new and
original play by Mr. Craver, in which Mr. Rohson has a
principal part, is in preparation at the Olympic.
Some idea of the extensive popularity enjoyed
by Meyerbeer's last opera, " Dinorah," may be formed
from the fact, that it has been represented in no less than
66 towns, 41 of which are in Germany, 18 in Prance, and
the remainder in various parts of Europe,
