WILLS' A•ND BEQUESTS.

The will of Sir George Simpson, Knt., Governor
of the Hudson's Bay Company's territories, was
proved in London on the 26th ult. Sir George
died at his residence at La Chine, in Montreal,
Canada, on the ith of September last, at the age
of sixty-eight. His will bears date the 10th of
March preceding, and the original is lodged in the
court at Montreal. The executors nominated arc
Duncan Finlayson, Esq., formerly of La Chine,
but late of Scotland ; Eden Colville, Esq., of
Hans-place, Chelsea; David Davidson, Esq., and
James Blackwood Greeshields, Esq., both of
Montreal. The personalty in England was
sworn under £20,000. To his son, John Henry Pelly
Simpson, he leaves the sum of £75,000 currency,
together with the residue of his property, both
real and personal, the whole of which he directs
his executors to have entailed on the issue of his
son, and to retain the name of Simpson. To each
of his three daughters he leaves the sum of ;..C15,000
currency. To each of his executors he gives £5OO
currency, besides a legacy to Mr. Finlayson of
£l,OOO, and to Mr. Colville of £2,000. There
are several other legacies and annuities. His estates
on the three islands, Les Isles d'Orval, on the River
St. Lawrence, form part of the property left to his
son, who is residuary legatee. Sir George filled the
office of Governor of the Hudson's Bay Company's
territories for the long time of thirty-five years.
The will of Major-General William Frekc
Williams, K.H., formerly of Sandgate, but lately
residing at Bath, was proved in the London court
on the 26th of last month by the executors, Mrs.
Williams, the relict, the Rev. William Gorst Har-
rison, M.A., Vicar of Hart, Durham, and Thomas
Elliot Harrison, Esq., civil engineer. of Great
George-street, Westminster. The General has
bequeathed the whole of his property, real and
personal, to his relict for her life, and on her decease
to be divided amongst their children. The will
bears date the 21st of November last, and was
attested by Mrs. Margaret Day, of Battle, and Mr.
SaMuel Brice Cowan, surgeon, of Bath. General
Williams died at his residence at Vane-street, Bath,
on the 12th of December last, in his 69th year.
This gallant General saw much active military ser-
vice, and was severely wounded at the battle of
Bladeneburg, in America, in the dispute with that

known to be living apart from his wife. The world
was so very uncharitable that it would naturally
surmise that there was some improper connexion
between them. There was, therefore, no great im-
probability in the story told by Eli Z-1, Sturge. It
appeared that Sturge had communicated either to
Thomas or to her sister that he was separated from
his wife, and that one of them had asked whether
the separation was mutual. He was afraid it was
not uncommon among the humbler classes of this
country when a husband and wife parted by mutual
consent for each of them to think that he or she
was at liberty to take another husband or wife, and
that others did not .think much of going to live with
one of them in that capacity. In this case Thomas
remained with the petitioner until his wife came
back ; she then went to London, and as soon as the
wife went away again she returned to him. She
did not give by any means a satisfactory account of
the business which took her to London, or of her
reasons for returning to Bristol. Could any reason-
able man doubt, under these circumstances, that
the story told by Eliza Sturge was a true one ? It
had been argued that it was improbable that she
and her parents should have continued their inti-
macy with Sturge if they had discovered his inti-
macy with Thomas. After the unhappy experience
he had had in this court, he saw no improbability
in such a state of things. It was in the commoncourse
of events. One of the evils which might hereafter
result from the facility with which marriages were
dissolved was that, in a certain class of life, women
who committed adultery and afterwards married
the adulterer would to just as well received as if
they were perfectly pure. He was afraid that
women would become more reckless in deserting
their husbands when they found that they were
received with facility into the society of the class
to which they belonged after they were married to
their paramours. lie also thought that there was
evidence of connivance on the part of the husband.
On the two grounds, therefore, that the husband
had been guilty of connivance, and that he had
himself committed adultery, the petition must be
dismissed.

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA ; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
_

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—M. Allou, in his recent address on behalf
of Prince Napoleon, made a most extraordinary
statement, which caused no little sensation in the
court. 1t was to the effect that the Due do Berri,
during his residence in London in 1806, had con-
tracted a marriage with an English lady, Miss
Amy Brown, and there were two children by this
union.

Now the effect of this statement, if true, would be
that the Duc de Berri's subsequent marriage with
a Princess of Naples was bigamy, and that the
Comte do Chambord (Henri Cinq) was illegitimate.
Now, I will not assert that M. Allou put forward
the above declaration knowing it to be false, be-
cause in all probability the matter was set down in
his instructions. But I will take upon myself to
declare that the French Government Wa3 fully cog-
nisant of the utter falsehood as to the alleged mar-
riage.

The officials of the French embassy here, in fact,
knowing the liaison of the Due do Berri and Miss
Brown, the baptism of whose two children was
registered in London in ISO 9 as daughters of
" Charles Ferdinand" and Miss Amy Brown, with
no reference to their being marAcd, as in all the
other records of baptism of other children, trumped
up the story for M. Allou's splash. Searches have
been made by the Chancellor of the French em-
bassy in every locality where the archives of Roman
Catholic marriages have been preserved, in order
to find a certificate of marriage between the Due de
Berri and Miss Amy Brown. Notwithstanding
they failed, for the simple reason that no such mar-
riage ever took place, as anybody may ascertain by
an examination of the records.

The importance of the Paterson case can be appre-
ciated by the attempt made to bastardise the Comte
de Chambord,—T remain, sir, Tour obedient servant.

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITWS
"GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the aim 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."

,IPECTACLES.—SIGHT AND HEARING.—
DEAFNESS.—A newly-invented instrument for ex-
treme cases of deafness, called the SOUND MAGNIFIER,
Organic Vibrator, and Invisible Wee Conductor. It fits so
into the ear as not to be in theleast nerceptible ; the unplea-
sant sensation of eitv.linc;* 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 nersons are enabled to employ their sight at the
most minute occupation, can see with these lenses of a much
less magnifying power, and they de not require the frequent
changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assist-
ance.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York

LATEST NEWS.

(REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.)

GENOA, JAN. 31.

The Gazette di Genoa publishes a letter dated
off Gaeta, January 28th, stating that a French
despatch boat had brought a letter to General
Cialdini, containing a letter from the Emperor of
the French for King Francis 11., counselling the
King to cease his resistance in order to sate him-
self the humiliation of a capitulation.
The letter brought by the flag of truce which
was sent from Gaeta on the 28th January to Ad-
miral Persano, was supposed to have contained a
reply to the Emperor's letter.
The fire of the besiegers has caused great devas-
tation in Gaeta. The Italian fleet had been
increased by one vessel of war and one frigate.

PARIS, JAN. 31.

The Pays says:—‘• It is asserted that the Czar
has transmitted orders to the Russian Ambassador
at Rome to return immediately to Gaeta."
The same paper publishes a despatch from Naples,
stating that the ambassadors of the powers remain-
ing at Gaeta have protested against the blockade of
that place.

PESTH, JAN. 31.

The Prince Primate ass addressed a circular to
all the Comitats of Hulgary counselling them to

The Primate says that our hastiness is the fore-
runner of anarchy. He urges them to have
patience for a few rtonths longer, and not to
alienate their sovereign, who is approaching with
the branch of peace in l,is hand, animated with
the best good will and the purest intentions.

HAMBURG, JAN. 31.

According to advices received here from reliable
quarters at Copenhagen, the great European
Powers have urgently requested Denmark to grant
concessions to Schleswig-Holstein, and have hinted
that they would by no means recognise any
blockade of the German coasts which might be
declared by Denmark in consequence of federal
execution being despatched to Holstein.

PARIS, JAN. 31.

The Paris papers publish a telegram from Con-
stantinople, dated 20th inst., according to which
Prince Labanoff had remitted to the Porte a memo-
randum and further documents in reply to the
report of Kiprisli Pacha. These documents were
accompanied by an energetic note demanding the
convocation of an European conference at Constan-
tinople.

The same telegram states that the Porte, having
been called upon to sanction a prolongation of the
French occupation of Syria, had replied that she
must insist upon the execution of the Paris con-
♦ention.

ST. PETERSBURG, JAN. 31.

ITALY.

liullier's Correspondence publishes a circular note,
dated August 24, addressed by Baron Ricasoli to
the diplomatic agents of Italy abroad, explaining
the state of affairs in the Neapolitan provinces, and
replying to those who counsel him to renounce the
union '• that the Italian nation is constituted, and
that all that is Italy belongs to it."
Baron Ricasoli, in explaining the state of affairs
in the Neapolitan provinces, compares the present
troubles to those which occurred in France, Eng-
land, and Spain at different periods of transition.
He declares the movement in Naples to be in no
way a political one, but simply an affair of brigand-
age and pillage. •
Of the 15 Neapolitan provinces he says five only,
namely, those which are near to the Papal frontier,
are given up to brigandage. He then gives a his-
tory of the brigandage which at different periods
has desolated the kingdom of Naples. lie
speaks in severe terms of the former Nea-
politan army, which, although composed of
180,000 men, well armed and equipped, fell back
before a handful of heroes, and who since have
abandoned themselves to brigandage, sometimes
carrying the Bourbon flag, which they have dis-
honoured by not defending, as they now dishonour
it by making it the emblem of assassination and
rapine. Baron Ricasoli regrets to state that the
brigandage in Naples is the hope of the European
reactionary party which has placed its citadel
in Rome. The ex-King of Naples coins money
at Rome for the payment of the brigands.
The Peter's pence serve to enrol brigands in all
parts of Europe. Their arms and ammunition
come from Rome. The late perquisitions and
arrests made by the French troops leave no doubt
on the subject. The connivance of the Roman
Court with the Neapolitan brigandage is evident.
Baron Ricasoli hopes that these facts will furnish
a powerful argument, and will demonstrate that
the temporal power is not only condemned by the
irresistible logic of national unity, but is become
incompatible with the civilisation of mankind,which
cannot tolerate acts of brigandage to be prepared in
the very centre of the Catholic Church, with the
connivance and encouragement of the Ministers of
him who represents God on earth. Rome, by ad-
vancing on this path, compromises her religious
interests without saving her worldly interests. This
universal conviction will materially assist the Italian
Government in the task which it cannot decline—
namely, to render to Italy, and at the same time to
restore to the Church, liberty and dignity.

A NEW REAPER.—A very remarkable reaping
machine was tried a few days ago in a village not far from
Newcastle. Its weight does not exceed 871 b. ; one horse
can draw it, and yet it does as much work in as little time
as the ponderous vehicles that require the assistance of
three horses. The inventor is the son of a Northumbrian
farmer.—. Newcastle Chronicle.
HIGH FEES IN HIGH PLACES.—The House of
Commons has published its " Standing Orders," corrected
to the close of the Session. The table of fees would sur-
prise persons unacquainted with Parliamentary business.
The rate varies according to the sum intended to be laid out
upon the undertaking to be sanctioned. If a town deter-
mine on a great public improvement, on which a million
and a half of money is to be laid out, the first step is to de-
posit a petition for leave to bring in a bill before the House
—but the House cannot see the petition unless there is a
£5O note in it. On the first reading of the bill, on the second
reading, on the report from the select committee on the bill,
and even after approval by the select committee, on the
third reading, too, down to the time when the house has to
part with the bill, it can see no merit in it unless on each of
these steps £l5O be paid before the bill is put to the vote.
These are parts of the price which " the powers that be"
charge for an Act of Parliament.

FIRE BRANCH.

"The Fire Branch has certain y shown no exhaustion dur-
ing the year 1860 of that impetus which had previously
b ought it to a position of the first magnitude among the
Insurance Companies of the United Kingdom. 'Uhe Fire
Premiums in 1859 had advanced to the sum of £2.'8,311 7s. 3d.
In 1860 the amount of Fire Premiums has arrived at a sum of
X 2 i 2,977 19s. 11d., showing an increase of £34,663 12s. Bd., ex-
reeding the large advance of the preceding year, so that in
two years the Fire Revenue of the Company has been en-
hanced by the enormous sum of £66,829 17s. sd.
"The Parliamentary Report of Returns of Duty paid to
Oovernment for the year 1860 exhibits the anc_rmentation of
the business in a more promine,,t way, as it affords the means
of comparison with other Companies. The Proprietors will
be gratified to learn that the increase of Duty paid by the
Royal in the last year is more than double that of any other
Co parry, either London or Provincial, whilst only one of
those Companies even approaches to 50 per cent. of the ad-
vance of th,s Comp ny. Our increase actually (-quills 30 per
cent. of the entire increase of the whole of he Metropolitan
Offices combined, whilst of the Provincial Offices it forms up-
wards of 30 per cent. of the total advance of the other 28 offices
established out of London,
