Camp at Lora River, April 29, 1843.
Sir,—l have the honour to acquaint you, for the information
of the Major-General Commanding the Troops in Lower Aff-
ghavistan and Sinde, that I yesterday attacked the enemy's
strong position, in front of the village of Hykulzie, with the
troops mentioned in the margin,* and dispersed them in all
directions.

2. The three columns of attack were well led by Major
Simmons, 11. M. 41st Regiment, Captain Woodburn, 25th
Regiment, N. I. and Major Cochran. I-I. M: 41st, the latter
being accompanied by a wing of the 25th Bombay N. 1., under
Captain Teasdale, commanding that corps.
3. The reserve was in the hands of Major Browne, com-
manding H. M. 41st Regiment.
4. Nothing could be more successful than the combinations ;
sad the insurgents, after a short resistance, fled into the rugged
mountains in their rear, ljaving their standards, and being
closely and gallantly pursued by the 3d Light Cavalry under
Captain Delamain.
5. The practice of Captain Leslie's horse artillery battery
was, as usual, most effective, anti the conduct of the troops ex-
cellent.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—l have read in the Morning Post of the 20th of
July an extract of a work written by Miss Louisa Cos-
tello, in which I remarked these words :—" Prince Louis
Napoleon now expiates in that mournful retreat (the
Castle of Ham) his breach of honour and mad impru-
dence." For the last two years that I have been a cap-
tive I have never noticed the many absurdities advanced
respecting my descent at Boulogne. It is useless for the
vanquished to submit to discussion the caprice of lbr-
tune ; but when my honour as a man is attacked, Ido
what lies in my power to defend it ; a pure conscience
is all that is left me. Being convinced that the inten-
tion of insulting misfortune cannot enter a woman's
heart, I beg to subjoin the copy of a letter I wrote on
the subject to the Journal du Potpie on the 9th of De-
cember last :

I never contracted any engagement whatever with the
French Government. Five years ago I was set at liberty
against my will and without conditions. During r.ty trial
at the Court of Peers, the Attorney-General was obliged
to acknowledge it. I never filled in my word, and never
will."

I have no doubt that the author of " A Pilgrimage to
Picardie and Auvergne" will regret having added the
pain of calumny to the sorrows of captivity.
I take this opportnnity, Sir, of expressing my thanks
for the interest you have often manifested in my behalf,
and remain, &c.,

NAPOLEON LOUIS BONAPARTE.
Citadel of Ham, July 2G, 1842.

To CHRISTIAN MINISTERS—A NOBLE EXAMPLE.
I—We learn from a Correspondent, that the Rev. Dr.
Andrew Reed, of Wycliffe Chapel, has gone down on a
mission of true philanthropy, to one of the most dis-
tressed of our manufacturing districts. His intention
was made known to his people on Sabbath morning last,
and on the Monday he received from the members of his
church and congregation the sum of about 150/., which
he intends to distribute with his own hand. This is not the
• sympathy of feeling only of which we hear so much, but
the generosity of ettlirt worthy of such a people. To the
congregations of London we say, go and do likewise.
THE GERMANS.—The youth of no nation are
more enthusiastic, more ready to beat down limits, more
idealistic in love and friendship, than those of Germany ; but
they have at the same time a wonderful capacity, when they
are complete men, of becoming old vain peruques, who would
give heaven knows what if they coultt ban►sh their most
glorious time, the time of noble youthful follies and enthu-
siastic dreams. into the realm of non-existences. We can al-
most hear their grey hair growing under their brown, and can
predict to a nicety when toe Polonius will become the master
of the Hamlet in their nature.—Marygruff's Deutsehland's

POLYTECHNIC JOURNAL.

In this joirnal we have science and meehanies
combined with literature, so that it appeals to the in-
terests of a large and increasing class of readers. The
Number for the . present month is ably. digested in
point of materials ; and among the more generally 011,.
tertaining articles, we find sortie particulars respect-
ing ",Greece as a Kingdom," the hints for which have
been furnished by Mr.. Strong's recent work on the
subject. The writer speaks in the most animated terms
of the climate and soil of. this celebrated country, ob-
serving. of the latter, that it " is so rich that it pro-
duces in abundance the principal wants of the inhabi-
tants, repaying with ample interest the most trifling
labour, While the crops follow each other in rapid suc-
cession throughout the whole year." He ?Ads, wiih
reference to the climate, that • t.talthough geographi-
cally speaking, Greece lies within thieiitenmwte zones,
the heat during summer is much more `oppressive that-t-
-in Bengal, the West Indies, or other countries situ.-1
ated between the tropics." This is a remarkable fact,
and for which it must be difficnit to aceourit. Speak-
ing of the inhabitants, the writer says—" nature is
so extremely precocious in Greece,that females attain
the age of puberty at ten or ! eleven years, and
m(n at fifteen or sixteen. I am acquainted with a
lady of one of the.first Athenian families, who, though
only twenty7five years of age, has already had six-
tem eltil.lren,. eight of them twins, of whom seven
are still livin_.• It may scarcely appear credible in

SILVER, SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive
and injurious metals called Nickel and German Silver
supplanted by the introduction of a new and perfectly matchless
ALBATA PLATE. C. WATSON (late ALDERMAN)
41 and 42, Barbican, aided by a person of science in the amal-
gation of metals, has succeeded in bringing to public notice the
most beautiful article ever yet offered : possessing all the rich-
ness of Silver in appearance—with its durability and hardness
—with its perfect sweetness in use—undergoing, as it does, a
ehemical process, by which all that is naseous in mixedmetals is
entirely extracted—resist ng Cl acids, may be cleaned as Silver,
and is manufactured into every article for the Table and Side-
board.

C. Watson begs the Public will understand that this metal
is peculiarly his own, and that Silver is net more different from
Gold, than his metal is from all others ; the Public will there-
fore have no difficulty in discovering the animus which directs
the virulent attacks made against him, by a party who is daliy
suffering from the unparalleled success which has marked the
progress of sirs New Plate since its introduction. C. W.,,
unlike his opponents, courts comparison, feeling confident that
the result will establish its pro-eminence.

BENTLEY'S MISCELLANY.

Miss Isabella Romer, who tells a short story—such
as is well suited to the pages of a Magazine—with
great skill, leads off the present Number, with a brief,
terse narrative, founded on fact, and entitled, " The
Two Interviews." The hero is the French Count de
Lally Tollendal, who, on one occasion, in his riotous
youth, insulted the family of the public executioner of
Paris, for which that worthy functionary " saddled
hiruwith a judgment," as parson Thwackum would
phrase it. He predicted, in fact, the Count's death on
the scaffold, and, strange to say, the prediction was
verified some twenty or thirty years after date, the
executioner himself personally contributing, in his
official capacity, to consummate the prophecy 1 " Mr.
Makepeace, the Duellist," is one of Jerrold's shrewd,
caustic sketches. The portrait of the dry, old spins-
ter, Miss Mac Single, who "at the early age of eigh-
teen, was despoiled of a lover who, in eight-and=forty
hours, would have ripened into a husband, had he
not been blown from the tree of life by the bullet of
a gentleman from Tipperary"—this portrait is neatly
finished off ; and there is much truth of nature in the
remark, that the ancient spinster " kept her bridal
dress as authentic evidence of her near approach to
happiness." When single gentlewomen begin to dry
up, and exhibit crows-feet under each eye, their scep-
tical friends and acquaintances are apt to require some
such voucher to prove that they once had a chance
of being married. " William' Blanchard" gives
some laughable specimens of the conversation
of this admirable comedian. lle was, it seems,
a staunch Royalist and Tory, and pitied the
poor, benighted Americans, because they " had
no king, poor wretches !" This, in Blanchard's opi-
nion, accounted for all their bluster, all their vul-
garity, all their grotesque go-ahead notions ! Had
they but been blessed with a king—no matter though
that king had been carved out of a block of wood—
then they would have been perfection as a nation.
Despite, however, their sturdy republicanism, Blan-
chard was well pleased with the Americans, and thus
amusingly describes some of their social peculiarities,
in his usual quaint, parenthetical fashion. He is sup-
posed to be talking to an old theatrical friend :
Blanchard's loyalty and Toryism were severely tested
during his visit to America in 1834 ; and although, as
he said, he experienced very great kindness, attention,
and hospitality, the people were not sufficiently John
Bullish for him. He was greatly annoyed at their con-
• tinual restlessness, especially •,,t the dinner-table ; for ho

THE ITALIAN OPERA.

On Saturday evening Torquato 'lasso was performed for
the debut of ,Madame Ronroni. This opera was brought out
here two years ago for the debut of Coletti, an admirhble per-
former, whose engagement initead of Tamburini gave occasion
to the " Tamburini row," which had the Affect of co, spelling
Laporte to engage that singer, and to laftoletti on the shelf,
who, however, has since been placed, by: the unanimous voice
of Italy, in the highest rank of his profession. Coletti re-
ceived very great applause for his acting and singing in the
character of Tasso, though the piece was generally disap-
proved of; and such, we believe, will be the case now.
Ronconi's performance of the same character, by which, it is
said, he laid the foundation of his continental reputation, was
excellent. He certainly did not look the character of the
youthful poet, the aspiring but favoured lover of the high-
horn Leonora of Este, so well as Coletti, who was singularly
handsome and graceful ; but his performance was energetic
and impassioned, and his singing was full of that expressive
simplicity which we have already remarked as belonging to him.
Madame Roncuni, in the part of Leonora, did not at first make
a strikin„... impression; but, as she proceeded, her powers de-
veloped themselves, and she merited and obtained general and
cordial applause. In the air " L'affanno in cni penal" (one of
the best things in the opera), she was loudly and warmly en-
cored ; and her appearance may be considered as decidedly suc-
cessful. Her voice is a mezzo soprano, of very pleasing qua-
lity, though not of great power.
The theatre was crowded. The Queen, Prince Albert, and
their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Kent, the Duchess of
Cambridge, and the Prkace-ss Augusta., were present ; and the
boxes were filled with fashionable company.
