PRUSSIA.

The People's Gazette of Berlin declares that
Germany is not bound to support Austria in Italy,
but that, on the contrary, that Power ought to be
loft to carry on unassisted the conflict in which she
is engaged. It says :—" Austria has taken a bold
step, and she alone must bear all the consequences
of it. No doubt France may desire to attack
Austria, not only in Italy, but on German territory.
In that case certainly the situation would be diffe-
rent ; and to be prepared for it, the Confederation
and Prussia ought to place their armies on a war
footing. But for the present to rush into war for
the honour and dignity of Austria, because she
cannot live quietly with. Sardinia, is a course which
only writers paid by Austria or exaggerated pru-
dence can demand."

LATEST NEWS.

THE EMPEROR NAPOLEON'S
MANIFESTO.
The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office :

PARIS, MAY 3.
The following is the communicat ion made by
Government to the Corps Legislatif this day :
" Austria, by ordering the entry of her army
into the territories of the King of Sardinia, our

ally, has declared war against us. She thus vio-

.ates treaties and justice, and menaces our frontiers.
" All the great Powers have protested against

;his ,act of aggression.

" Piedrr.ont having accepted the conditions which
ought to have insured peace, one asks, What can
be the reason of this sudden invasion ? It is be-
cause Austria has driven matters to such an ex-

tremity that her dominion must either extend to
the Alps, or Italy must be free to the shores of the
Adriatic ; for every corner of Italy which remains
independent endangers the power of. Austria.

" Hitherto moderation has been the rule of my
conduct ; but noW energy becOmes my first duty.
France must now to arms, and resolutely tell
Europe I wish not for conquest, but I am deter-
mined firmly to maintain my•national and tradi-
tional policy. I observe treaties on condition that
they are not violated against me. I respect the
territories and the rights of neutral Powers, but I
boldly avow my sytopathies with a people whose
history is mingled with our own, and who now
groan under foreign oppression.
"France has shown her hatred of anarchy. Her
will was to give me power sufficiently strong to re-
duce into subjection abettors •of disorder and the
incorrigible members of old factions who are inces-
santly seen concluding compacts with our enemies,
tut she has not for that purpose abandoned her
civilising 'character. Her natural allies have always
been those who desire the amelioration of the human
race, and, when she draws the sword, it is not to
govern but to free.

WILLIAM BEADON.

Otterhead, 30th April, 1859,

It is well known that Mr. Labouchere's majority would
have beeh considerably larger had he been a supporter of the
Ballot. He was freely told on his canvass by many of his old
friends that they would have had much greater pleasure in
voting for him had he been in favour of that measure.
London, England, 1859-05-04

present conjuncture entire liberty of action, and we
hardly need add that he is animated only by the
sentiment of the dignity of his crown and the in-
terests of the country.

TRIESTE, MAY 4.
Advices have been received from Florence to the
29th ultimo.

M. Mainn has been appointed Aide-de-Camp to
General Ulloa.

Ad-vices have also been received from Milan to
the 30th ult. Postal communication with Piedmont
has been suppressed.

VENICE, MAY 1.
Count de Trautmannsdorff, Alistrian ambassador
at the Court of Berlin, has gone to Milan.

BERNE (via Germany), MAY 3.
The Austrian troops have been concentrated on
the line of the Sesia, and have occupied Vercelli.
General Gyulai has levied on the town of Novara
a heavy contribution of provisions and forage.

No collision between the two armies has yet

taken place.

TRIESTE, MAY 3.
No Sardinian mails have arrived at Venice since
the 28th, nor at Trieste since the 29th April last.
The Archduchess Charlotte has left for Innspruck.
The mails from Constantinople are in, but they
bring no news of any importance.

ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE IN HEALTH AND
DISEASE.

Just Published, price is., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps,
IECUND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS
KJ FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special
perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress-
ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical
Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO-
GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus-
ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated
from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com-
piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi-
tioner of twenty years' standing.
Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which
commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with
the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious
indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and
Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter
fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre-
gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili-
tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a
condition little short of total prostration, then by the action
of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical
treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta-
blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of
SECOND LIFE.

DEATE OF THE KING OF SWEDEN

AND NORWAY.

We learn by telegram from Stockholm that King
Oscar died yesterday in that city, after an illness
which has incapacitated him from taking any active
part in the government of his kingdom since the
month of September, 1857.
The deceased Monarch was the son of Bernadotte,
whom he succeeded in 1844: His Majesty was born
in 1799, and married, in 1823, the Princess Jose-
phine Maximilliene Eugenie, daughter of Eugene,
Duke of Leuchtenberg, by whom he has had several
children. He is succeeded by his eldest son, Prince
Charles, who was appointed Regent by Royal ordi-
nance, in 1857, when his father's illness rendered
necessary the abnegation of Royal authority.
The present King was born in 1826, and married
in 1850 the Princess Louise, daughter of Prince
William of the Netherlands.

THE THEATRES.

DRURY-LANE.

Madlle. Titiens was never, perhaps, more ap-
plauded or pelted with bouquets in her life than
she was on Thursday night, when she appeared as
Norma. Floral tributes were constantly at her
feet, and the mere exertion of picking up her tri-
umphs must have been exhausting. She sang the
cabaletta of " Casta Diva" very brilliantly indeed,
and the embellishments she introduced, although
elaborately profuse, were so admirably executed as
to delight the audience. Madlle. Titiens gave the
solo, " Ah non tremare," with all the dramatic feel-
ing and vocal force with which Nature has endowed
her, and certainly deserved, although she did not
obtain, the customary encore. In the succeeding
trio, " Ah di qual sei veltima," she was equally ad-
mirable. Madlle. Titiens' Norma may, in short,
be described as a genuine " hit" for the public, and
thus the opera, hackneyed as it is, will probably
prove attractive at Drury-lane for some time to
come.

HER MAJESTY AT ALDERSHOTT.

Yesterday her Majesty and the Prince Consort
and suite paid what may be termed their second
state visit this season to the Camp at Aldershott.
As this will probably be the last visit of her Ma-
jesty this summer, the review which takes place
to-day will be on the most extensive scale which
the Camp resources admit of, 15 regiments of infan-
try, with six of cavalry and 42 guns, being in the
field to execute the manoeuvres. In order, how-
ever to spare the men the fatigue and distress
which would result from rapid evolutions under
a broiling sun, the troops will not parade till 3
o'clock in the afternoon, the sham fight commencing
at 4 and lasting till about 7 in the evening. On Sun-
day her Majesty remains at the Pavilion and will
attend Divine service in the large church at the
South Camp. On Monday it is expected that the
Royal party will visit the new camp at Woolmer,
where three or four regiments with a small force
of artillery, which will leave Aldershott to-day
(Saturday) will be under canvas, and conforming
precisely to the same field regulations as if can-
toned out in actual service against an enemy. After
inspecting this camp her Majesty will drive to Lip-
hook, a small station on the Woking branch of the
South-Western Railway, which the Royal train
will proceed direct to Osborne. Political variations
seem to have affected the Camp as well as every-
thing else, for during no summer since it was first
formed have there been so few Royal visits as dur-
ing the present. This is almost to be regretted, for
at no time has the Camp been better worth seeing.
All within the limits of the Camp proper is as
well ordered and neat as if it formed part of
a gentleman's grounds, while the heath be-
yond, from Cove-common down to the banks
of the canal, is dotted in regular lines with
the neat white bell tents of the brigades under can-
vas. The total force of the Camp division is about
20,000 men of all arms, and of this number nearly
19,000 are actually in the camp or at Woolmer.
Three troops of the horse artillery are attached to
the two brigades of cavalry, and one field battery
to each of the four brigades of infantry. The heat
during the past week has been so intense at camp
as to almost incapacitate the men from doing any-
thing. The wise and merciful arrangements, there-
fore, for the review of this day is hailed as a great
boon—though, of course, there are some who con-
sider it displays a most unnecessary amount of con-
sideration for the troops, who, in campaigning
would have to face an enemy in any weather, and
ought, therefore, to do the same now at Aldershott.
By the same process of reasoning, the men might
as well be required to undergo a course of Minie
bullets and sabre wounds, both of which, in addi-
tion to sunstrokes, they would have to face during
a campaign, though a practical acquaintance with
them is hardly necessary just now.

THE MILITIA.

The .Royal Radnor Rifles were inspected on Sa-
turday last by Lieutenant-Colonel Preston, 45th
Regiment. The inspecting officer expressed his
satisfaction at the clean and. soldier-,like appear-
ance of the men and their steadiness under arms,
and said he should feel it his duty to make a
special report of the highly efficient state of the
regiment to the Commander-in-Chief. 'The regi-
ment being rather above its establishment, several
good recruits who have offered themselves have
been rejected by the commanding officer.

The Worcestershire Regiment of Militia com-
pleted their term of permanent duty yeSterday, and
have been dismissed. They were inspected by the
officer of the district on Thursday; and passed a
very good muster. - The body is about 800 strong.

Thursday next, the 14th inst. at one o'clock.
Gen. Sir John Burgoyne, Royal Engi-
neers, Inspector-General of Fortifications, having
relinquished his military duties, and retired from
the service, an order has been received at the head-
quarters of the Royal Engineer establishment,
Brompton Rarracks, directing that all the returns
relating to the corgis are in future to be forwarded
to the Adjutant-General of the Forces.
In order to provide,- ncreased acComme#fition for
the officers and troops 'at Chatham garrison who
are undergoing a course, of instructiOnm the Enfield
rifle previously to embarking for India, the,Govern-
ment has decided on the formation of a long-range
praCtising ground at the rear of the barracks; near
St. Mary's marshes; in addition to the present rifle
ranges, so as to enable several hundred more troops
to be instructed in their rifle exercise at Chatham
without the inconvenience of forwarding; ihem to
Eastbourne. Major-General C. C. Hay, the Inspec-
tor-General of Musketry, has surveyed tl% ground
in the vicinity of Chatham, and has reported so
favourably on the advantages possessed by the
locality that the Government has decided on ex-
pending a sum of £17,000 in the formation of the
rifle grounds, and this amount has been included in
the supplementary estimates just laid beforetPar.

HAYMARKET-MR. BUCKSTONE'S BENEFIT.

Arguing upon the maxim laid down by Jeremy
Bentham, that he is the greatest benefactor of his
species who has contributed to the greatest happi-
ness of the greatest number, we should have reason
most unhesitatingly to place Mr. Buckstone in that
most enviable of positions. As author, actor, and
manager for more years than one would believe,
judging only from his unflagging energy and un-
abated powers of humour, he has continued, with
scarcely a week's intermission, to provide the play-
going population of London and the provinces with
materials for enjoyment that have given to many
thousands memories and experiences of the highest
and healthiest gratification ; and since he has held
the managerial reins of the Haymarket he has
steadfastly sought to encourage the best interests
of dramatic literature, at the same time that he has
zealously endeavoured to foster what rising talent
he might find among its exponents. Nightly have
his genial voice and mirth-inspiring features
awakened the glad smile and the welcome recogni-
tion from his audience, and the playbill of the
evening deprived of his name would lose the mag-
netic power that made it attractive. The annual
benefit of Mr. Buckstone becomes, therefore, an
event in the dramatic register, and when we remind
his multitude of admirers that it is fixed for Satur-
day next, the 16th inst., we feel assured that the
attendance will be such as shall fitly celebrate the
occasion.

LIVERPOOL-JuLT 8•

- - - -
The arrivals from Ireland and coastwise since Tuesday
have been insignificant. From foreign ports we have received
6,953 quarters of wheat, 975 quarters of beans, and 7,421
sacks and 118 barrels of flour. The exports, in the same
time, comprise 632 quarters of oats, 921 quarters of Indian
corn, 376 loads oatmeal, and 261 sacks flour. With con-
tinued fine weather and dull reports :cora the London and
counter markets we have had a very quiet trade during the
past two days, and with news of an armistice hat ing been
concluded between France and Austria doubtless prices
will bare to undergo a further decline before buyers come
in. This morning we had only a small attendance of
the trade at our corn exchange. The business passing
was limited for wheat and flour, at a decline of 3d to 4d
per cental on the former and is per sk. on the latter article.
Oats and oatmeal a slow sale, without alteration in value.
Barley, beans, and peas rather easier to buy. Indian corn
in limited request, at Tuesday's rates.

This preparation is one of the benefits which the science of

COUNTRY MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL—JULY 8.
The arrivals from Ireland and coastwise since Tuesday
have been insignificant. From foreign ports we have received
6,953 quarters of wheat, 975 quarters of beans, and 7,421
sacks and 118 barrels of flour. The exports, in the same
time, comprise 632 quarters of oats, 921 quarters of Indian
corn, 376 loads oatmeal, and 261 sacks flour. With con-
tinued fine weather and dull reports frbm the London and
country markets we have had a very quiet trade during the
past two days, and with news of an armistice having been
concluded between France and Austria doubtless prices
will have to undergo a further decline before buyers come
in. This morning we had only a small attendance of
the trade at our corn exchange. The business passing
was limited for wheat and flour, at a decline of 3d t 3 443
per cental on the former and is per sk. on the latter article.
Oats and oatmeal a slow sale, without alteration in value.
Barley, beans, and peas rather easier to buy. Indian corn
in limited request, at Tuesday's rates.

BRISTOL SUGAR—JULY 8. •
There has been no alteration in the market since our last
report. Refiners' produce is in demand, and realises good
prices. Rum is quiet.

KNARESBOROUGH—JULY 6.
There was a small supply of grain at market to-day.
—White wheat, 5s 6d to 68 3d per bushel ; red, 5s Od to be
6d ; beans, 58 3d to 6s 9d; barley, 30s Od to 375; oats, 22s
to 28s Od per qr.

A HINT TO HOUSEWIVES.—In making your pur-
chases always see that you get value for your money ; it is
doubtful economy to purchase an inferior article at any
time, even although it may be offered at an apparently low
price, and positive thriftlessness to pay as much for an in-
ferior article as you can obtain a superior article for. Dealers
are
eno
sell now beginning
su peri to find that it is more profitable in the
end to or articles at moderate prices, and in illus-
tration of this we have much pleasure in informing you that
the Glenfield patent starch, which has been exclusively
used in her Majesty's laundry for many_ years, can now be
obtained from your grocer almost as cheap as the most com-
mon kinds made ; for although it costs him more, the large
quantity
of it which he sells yields him a larger profit in theaggregate, than the inferior kinds which are little in de-
mand, and he has the satisfaction of giving his customers
an article which he has every reason to believe will please
them, seeing that the Queen's laundress uses it exclusively
in getting up the laces, linens, &c., of her Majesty and the
Royal family.

BRIBERY AT NORWICH.
Mr. BRIGHT presented a petition from the corporation
of Norwich, setting forth thit bribery had been extensively
practised at the late election for, that borough, that money
was raised by influential persons in London, and forwarded
to Norwich for that purpose, and that money was alsol
raised in Norwich, and prayed for a speedy and impartia
investigation into all the circumstances, and for the intro-
duction of a measure into Parliament for the more effectual

suppression of corruption at elections. The hon. member
stated that if the inquiry on the petition previously pre-
sented with reference to the election at Norwich was not
" searching and impartial," he weuld hold himself at
liberty to bring the subject forward again, and he added,
three-fourths of the corporation were present when the pe-
tition was agreed to.
