(IREUTER'S TELEGRAMS.)
PARIS, JAN. 6, NOON.
Negotiations concerning Gaeta have been opened
between France and Sardinia.

NAPLES, JAN. 5.
Several Neapolitan officers have been arrested.
The bombardment of Gaeta continues.

NAPLES, JAN. 4, 6 P.M.

A conspiracy formed by the Bourbon party, but
without any importance, has been discovered here.
Four Royalist generals have been arrested, with
some agents of King Francis 11., who bad come
from Gaeta.

Prince Carignan is expected here on the 15th
instant.

TURIN, JAN, 5.

The Turin journals publish a letter from Gari-
baldi, in which he renounces any intention of
offering himself as a candidate for the post of
deputy to the Italian Parliament, and advises con-
cord in order to arrive at the deliverance of Venice,

PARIS, JAN. 6.

To-day the rumour is renewed, in a more serious
manner than ever, that the French fleet is shortly
to be withdrawn from Gaeta. This time, I believe,
the rumour is well founded.

The replacement of M. Farini, by the Prince de
Carignano, at Naples, is confirmed.

VIENNA, JAN. 6.
The official Wiener Zeitung publishes an ordi-
nance of the Minister of State, which is to be valid
for all the Crown lands, with the exception of
Hungary, Transylvania, Croatia, and Venetia.
The ordinance specifies the conditions of eligi-
bility, both for the elections and those elected as
deputies to the diets in the cities and rural com-
munes. The cities which, according to the statutes
of their province, have the right of sending their
own representatives to the diet, will appoint them
by direct elections, at which all inhabitants of the
communes who, by the special communal law of
1849, are entitled to elect the municipal authorities,
will take part. The election of deputies from the
rural communes will be effected by electors who
are to be themselves elected by the inhabitants of
the communes.

Those persons are eligible as deputies to the diet,
who are Austrian citizens, who are at least 30 years
of age, in the full enjoyment of civil rights, and
who belong to one of the classes privileged to vote.

PESTH, JAN. G.

Yesterday disturbances took place at Kerskemet,
which necessitated the intervention of the garrison.
The soldiers were compelled to make use of their
firearms, and five persons were severely wounded
in consequence.
London, England, 1861-01-07

BANK-B ULL lON-DISCOUNT.

On Monday, December 31, the Bank raised the
rate of discount from 5 to 6 per cent. The reduction
in the amount of bullion held by the Bank amounted,
by the return on Saturday last, to not less than
£590,282, and the exports during the past week
exceed the imports by a nearly similar 5um—
£561,014. Large sums, which have since arrived,
have been immediately taken for France.
The Bank of France discounted on Friday, Dec.
28, £BOO,OOO, and £1,440,000 on Saturday. The
French Bank raised its rate of discount on Wed-
' nesday last from 41 to 51 per cent.
The result is that alarm and anxiety are again
introduced into all commercial circles. Let our
readers observe that this feeling of distrust takes
place in face of peace with China and a commercial
treaty with France, and, as we are again and again
assured, a sound and healthy state of trade. The
fact is, that whether bullion is wanted for the East
in consequence of disturbances there, or for America
in consequence of secession, or for France from any
cause whatever, the withdrawal of a small amount
of bullion is by the present money law made to act
most injudiciously on English trade and English
interests. No matter how careful, provident, or
sagacious the English trader may be, if gold go out
discounts are raised, the circulating medium con-
tracted, and the price of all his commodities lowered,
and the demand for what he has to sell at the same
time diminished. For the great body of the trading
community suffering from the same causes, and the
working ciassea being gradually thrown out of
employment, the purchasing power of the English
people sustains serious diminution. The gold dis-
coveries have saved England from a monetary and
social revolution, and they still bolster up this
rotten and fatuous system, but even tons of gold
could not stave off the panic of 1857, and at this
moment our merchants and traders are suffering
in spite of enormous imports of: specie, and all the
favourable circumstances which the bullionist
writers ascribe to our commercial condition.—
Derbyshire Courier.

DR. LA'MERT on the Treatment and cure of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, resulting
from pernicious habits contracted in Youth, excesses in Man-
hood, or residence in Tropical Climates. With Cases and En-
gravings from Life, representing the various Organs in
Health and Disease.
The extensive circulation of this work may be attributed in
great measure to the fact that the Author is the only duly
qualified and legally registered Practitioner who for 20
years has made the Diseases arising usually from
Imprudence the peculiar objects of his attention. The im-
pediments which so often either prohibit wedlock, or embitter
and render it a state of misery, by disappointing its fondest
hopes and marling its highest objects, are, though varied in
form, closely analogous in reality. The mischief may arise in-
nocently, from deleterious influences devolved from the
necessities of position—from circumstances which occurred
years before the sufferers were born, from accident or the in-
fluence of tropical climates, but chiefly from Self-incurred
Afflictions. dating back, in too numerous instances, to a period
long preceding that at which reason could. be matured by ex-
perience.
A professional preludice, which happily is now fast disap-
pearing, though it still lingers with no little obstinacy in
some of the more antiquated medical schools, for a long time
almost ignored the morbid affections comprised under the
general designation "Nervous and Physical Debility," though
these affections are probably more destructive and widely pre-
valent than any others.
The consequence of so important a department of pathology
being neglected is, that sufferers from the infirmities in
question, virtually npelled from consultation with prac-
titioners of standing and character, are thus liable to fall into
the hands of unqualified Empirics, sometimes assuming titles
of Physicians and Surgeons, whose names are not to be found
in the Medical Register (whereby they incur serious legal
penalties), whose ignorant meddling with the treatment of
these cases render these disorders a standing reproach to the
medical profession. Those who may have a suspicion
that any of the observations here made have peculiar applica-
tion to themselves, may consider that cases are indeed rare
in which practised science cannot fully realise long-deferred
heroes, remove all causes of mutual reproach, and replace
chit:rite embitterment by permanent content.
Dr. La'Mert. M.D., Honorary Member of the London Res-
pite: Medical Society, &c., is the only legally qualified regis-
tered practitioner who, for 20 years, has devoted MS attention
to the treatment of these disorders. At home for consulta-
tation daily, from 10 till 2, and from 6 till 8.

PARIS, JAN. 6.
A pamphlet, entitled Rome et les .Eveques, has
been published here.

The Moniteur publishes a decree modifying the
duties on the importation of raw and dry hides and
skins, of all kinds of horse hair, oleaginous fruits,
oleaginous seeds, hemp, flax, and other filamentous
vegetables, also of copper, pewter, lead, &c., &c.
The llfoniteur also contains a decree raising the
interest on Treasury Bills to 3,3 i, and 4 per cent.
respectively.
The Alloniteur announces that on account of the
death of the King of Prussia the ball at the
Tuilieries has been postponed.
BOURSE, Jan. s.—There has been only a limited
amount of business doing, but prices have been well
maintained. For the Account, Threes are now at

regret, not of his misdeeds and cruelties, but of bygone
pleasures.

' Paris of To-day" is a lively description of Paris
as it was in old times and what it is now. " Mingle
Mangle," by Monkshood, is on the subject of
mimetic music, and is written with the usual
talent of the author. "Our Corps' Friends and
Foes," by Ouida, is of the ordinary stamp of this
gentleman's productions. "Augustus Censer : His
Court and Companions," takes us back to the
classic times of Virgil and Horace. The most
amusing contribution this month is, however, the
review of "Trials of a Governess?' The work in
question emanates from Berlin, and if it did Not
excite our mirth, its absurd falsehoods would rouse
our indignation by the gross libel which it contains
on the British character, but we can laugh at the
remarks which a people like the Prussians may
make about- us. Slaves to their police, deluded
by the semblance of a constitution, they live on in
happy ignorance of the real liberty enjoyed by a
free people. "The Fate of Fauriel," by Dudley
Costello, is, like the other production of this author,
highly entertaining.

The Cornhill Afogazine.
The Cornhill Magcvine for January begins with
the opening of a new tale by Mr. Thackeray. It
is written in his delightful colloquial style. Here
is a happy specimen :

LITERATURE.

The United Service Magazine.

The presentation of a library composed of pro•
fessional works to the officers at the camp of Alder-
shot, by his Royal Highness the Prince Consort,
is deserving of commendation. It is by acts like
this that he will win the affections of military men
in general. • There is yet, however, another branch
of the service which requires the consideration of
those high in authority. The literary requirements
of the rank and file have been hitherto much
neglected. We trust shortly to see this important
branch of our army attended to. A short chapter
on the gift to the officers of Aldershot commences
this number. The paper on " Our Military System"
is rather voluminous ; but while the writer enters
into all the abuses which at present exist in the
service, he does not form a fair estimate of the
moral character of the British soldier at the present
time. He forgets that the working classes in gene-
ral are notoriously addicted to drinking, and if their
proceedings are more.• obvious from the fact that
their excesses are perpetrated in publichouses open
for all to see them, there are many holding higher
stations in society whose morality, with less ex-
cuse, stands no higher. That a great improvement
would be brought about in the social position of
the soldier if more care were taken to provide him
with the means of rational occupation and amuse-
ment, is patent to all who have studied the sub-
ject ; but it is not fair to abuse the whole army on
account of a few mauvais sujets to be found in
all regiments. "Revolutionary Agents in the Art of
War" contains some interesting details of the cannonA
in use in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, of
the general improvement in ordinance, and the
complete alteration of the principle of naval war-
fare by the introduction of steam. " Sir Howard
Douglas on Iron-plated Ships" is an exemplifica-
tion of how a man of ability may be carried by
prejudice as far in excess on his own aide of a
question, as his adversaries are on the other. That
this all-important subject should be fully discussed
we feel to be necessary, but there is no reason
why, in a subject of national importance, writers
should stoop to individual abuse. We are happy
to see that the Government is not rushing blindly
into the construction of new ships before the best
principle of naval architecture is fully proved to
the satisfaction of all reasonable men. For our-
selves, while entertaining the highest opinion of
iron for ship building, we feel convinced that the
"wooden walls of Old England" will still walk
the waters, despite the iron rams of our Gaelic
neighbours; and that the English seamen will in
future times have as little taste for "long bowls as
they had in the days of Nelson. And when once
the yards of two contending ships are looked,
armour plates will not offer much check to the
English tars, when the cry of " Boarders away"
rings along the decks. " Suggestions relative to
Safety Valves" furnishes an insight into the pos-
sible cause of accidents to the boilers in steam-
boats

THE UNEMPLOYED DURING SNOW AND FROST.
—The experience of the last few days shows that the foot-
paths have been generally ill kept. The law is, notwith-
standing, distinct on this point ; but no moans seem to
have been used by the authorities to carry out the neces-
sary measures. Great distress at the present time prevails
in several parts of the metropolis. A strong lad could
easily earn Is. 6d. in the morning by cleaning door-steps.
Supposing that the regulation for the cleansing of the
pavorntnt were strictly carried out, it would cause a con-
siderable amount of employment at a season when it is
much. needed. Taking the houses of London at about
600,000, the cleansing of the pathways would, at the rate
of ld. each, come to £2,500 for every cleansing opera-
tion. This would be of much benefit, not only to the poor,
who would gladly earn it, but also to thowtands of way-
farers. —llu ilder.

[A TrVERTTSETIF,NT.I—HOIIOWa3''S Pills and OinflnFtit
Early Measures.—lf anything were required to dcrnou-
strafe the necessity of early attention to all chest complaints,
full proof is given by the Registrar-General. During last
week 166 died of bronchitis, 95 of pectoral inflamal ion, and
150 of consumption. How dreadfully appalling is this
catalogue I rand doubly distressing when we reflect how
might have been saved by the early employment of Hollo-
way's remedies. This ointment should be thoroughly
rubbed twice daily upon the back and chest, even for the
merest cough or slightest cold. The trouble of the opera-
tion is very trifling when compared with the present ease
afforded and future risk removed. Holloway's pills should
be simaltaneously taken to confirm the cure.

regret, not of his misdeeds and cruelties, but of bygone
pleasures.

" Paris of To-day" is a lively description of Paris
as it was in old times end what it is now. " Mingle
Mangle," by Monkshood, is on the subject of
mimetic music, and is written with the usual
talent of the author. "Our Carps' Friends and
Foes," by Oujda, is of the ordinary stamp of this
gentleman's productions. "Augustus Czeser : His
Court and Companions," takes us back to the
classic times of Virgil and Horace. The most
amusing contribution this month is, however, the
review of " Trials of a Governess." The work .in
question emanates from Berlin, and if it did not
excite our mirth, its absurd falsehoods would rouse
our indignation by the gross libel which it contains
on the British character, but we can laugh at the
remarks which a people like the Prussians may
make about us. Slaves to their police, deluded
by the semblance of a constitution, they live on in
happy ignorance of the real liberty enjoyed by a
free people. "The Fate of Fauriel." by Dudley
Costello, is. like the other production of this author,
highly entertaining.

is written in his delightful colloquial style. Here
is a happy specimen :

RUSSIAN AD VICES FROM CHINA.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 28.—According to official
despatches from Pekin, the Russian Ambassador at
that court, Gen. Ignatieff, greatly assisted the allied
diplomatists in acting as mediator between them
and the Chinese Governments. It appears that the
Emperor, before his flight to Manschuria, had pub-
lished a proclamation, in which he swore to punish
the barbarians for their insolence, and offered a
reward of 50 lan (2 roubles 30 copecks) for the head
of every " black barbarian," meaning the French,
and 100 lan for each " white barbarian," meaning
the British. Previous to the entry of the
allies into Pekin, General Ignatieff, with
an escort of fourteen Cossacks, repaired to the
hotel of the Russian Embassy, where the Chinese
heads of departments waited on him, imploring
him by their friendship with Russia of two hun-
dred years' standing to save the city from destruc-
tion, and to undertake to be their mediator. To
this the general acceded, after first stipulating the
concession of all the demands made by Russia,
which were immediately granted. He then de-
manded, as a preliminary step, that the Chinese
should at once return the rest of the prisoners
taken when under the protection of a flag of truce,
explaining to them the indignity of the act, which
was a violation of all the principles of international
law, and would call forth the revenge of all Europe,
as well as of Russia, in spite of their two hundred
years of peace and good understanding, and that
the only thing left for the Chinese to do was to
accept the conditions imposed by France and Eng-
land. This advice was followed out; the prisoners
that were still alive were delivered up, as well as
the bodies of those who had succumbed to the bar-
barous tortures inflicted on them by their captors,
after which the treaty of peace was signed and
ratified.

After the ceremony was concluded, Gen. Igna-
tieff entertained the allied ambassadors and a large
number of their officers to dinner. During the
banquet a courier arrived from Irkutzsk, with
despatches from Count Murawieff-Amoorsky, the
Governor-General of East Siberia, which made a
great sensation, especially when it transpired that
the courier had ridden all the way through the
heart of Mongolia in less than 14 days.

RUMOURED DESTRUCTION OF ENGLISH AND
FRENCH GUNBOATS IN THE CHINA WATERS.—The follow•
ing statement has been received at Lloyd's, but great doubts
are expressed as to its correctness :—" Antwerp, Jan. 3.
Advices from Paris of yesterday's date state that secret
information had been received by the Government, to
the effect that the allied fleets had experienced a terrible
hurricane at the mouth of the Peiho, and eleven English
and seven French gunboats had been destroyed. Crews
saved.—Shipping Gazette.
A letter from Turin states that a caricature is
stuck up in many parts of that city representing Venetia
offering Francis Joseph a bagful of crowns. This is headed
"January." Side by side is another headed "December,"
in which Venetia, with an expressive gesture, is saying to
the Emperor, "Accept this good hand, or be kicked out of
the Window."
