with serious difficulty none of their actors
even to the most significant of the supernum-
eraries, are willing to take the part of the Aus
trians, unless with double pay, and only then
reluctantly. The result is unfortunate for
those who accept, because the number being
limited on account of the cost their kicks,
cuffs and misfortunes generally are increased
i'll proportion. 1t is fact that actors some,
times, by cOnsenting to assume these migrate
full parts, fix upon themselves public dislike
which clings to them for years. The most SUI

The FUNERAL OF ROMAN PRINoE.-The
funeral of the Prince Rospigliosi was celebrated
in the style of the last century, and will prob
ably be the last of its kind. By an exclusive
privilege claimed by Roman princes, he was
taken to his last resting-place in his state-car-
riage, gaily decked, and newly painted for the
occasion. The last observance of the ceremo-
ny was the most curious of all. The head
cook, in his costume of cirque cento, advanced
respectfully to tie foot of the bier, and, bow
ing to the ground, asked the usual morning
question, Your Excellency has orders for
me I" The inquiry was made with an ex-
pressive smile and distnctness of utterance
which almost shook the nerves OF the by
ISLANDERS. The dead man, however, not be-
trayng by word or gesture any comprehen-
sion Of the question, the great functionary of
Rospigliosi household, after waiting patiently
for few moments, withdrew, walking back
wards to the door of the church, and stand
ing in the porch, called out with stentorian
voice to the drivers Of the Rospigliosi carriages
gathered in vast numbers in the Piazza,
Drive home. His excellency has no further
orders to give you, and will require yonr SER
vices no more"
DIsGRACEFUL PROCEEDINGS IN A CHURCH.
The quarrel between the rival preachers of st.
George s-iu-the- East church, London, growing
out of doctrinal differences, broke out with
great violence, Sunday, 9th inst. One of the
preachers, Rev. Hugh Allen, at the request of
the Bishop, consented to abstain from preach
ing till his rights were determined by legal
tribunal. His friends, however were not paci-
fed and when his rival, Rev. Bryan King,
with the choristers, entered the church, hey
were assailed with storms of groans and Kisses.
Mr. King retired within the communion rails,
the choristers remaining outside, and COM
menced chant, which had the effect-amid
cries of "No Puseyism!' ono Popery p'-of
raising an increased amount of Kissing and
groaning, which completely drowned the
chanting. After an interval of about ten min
utes, the Rector with his choir retired from
the church, followed by some of the police,
dlllu ISLcWGu SrOdnSJ Misses, ana cries Oh
"Down with Puseyism % eve want Hugh
Allen p' At the seven O'Clock service there
was another demonstration of the parishioners'
feeling towards the Rector, who went through
the service without interruption, but the hiss
ing commenced as soon as the preacher ascend
ed the pulpit, and it was repeated at intervals
until the service was completely over, when
the Rector with his choir retired, followed by
cries of ''No Popery"
The EMPEROR AND THE ARrIsT.-Meis-
soner, who produces such wonderful miniature
paintings, is gone to Italy; and the way in
which his journey was brought about was
somewhat singular. 1t is said that the painter
had great desire to visit Italy, but not having
FOrtunatus cap, he could not obtain the
means by wishing His friend, Alexander
Dumas, recommended him to write to the
Emperor. Messoner took the advice, and
the Emperor sent him back Immediately an
order for either one or two pictures represent
ing the principal personages engaged in the
great military DRAMA or a scene from the war
itself, at the painters option; the remuneration
to be $4,000 francs. Within the letter of the
Emperor was an order for 10000 francs on ac-
count.
GENERAL JoCHMUs, who has recently en-
tered the Austrian army with the rank of
Field Marshal Lieutenant, is soldier of for
tune. He is native of the free city of Ham
burg, and was, during the Greek struggle for
independence an ardent Philhellenist, having
entered the Greek service at an early period.
Afterw ards he served in the English army in
the Peninsuar war; then in the Syrian cam
paign, and thereupon he was appointed Turk
ish General of Division and Pasha of two
tails. Subsequently he returned to Germany,
and in 1S49 was appointed Minister of Marine
under the late Austrian Archduke John, then
Regent of the German Confederation.
THE GENERAL EsPINAssE, killed at Magen-
ia, was a gentleman also of some political note
in Paris, and not very popular there, because
he was supposed to give the Emperor bad ad-
vice as to severe police and newspaper regula-
tons. His wife heard of his death when at
grand dinner given by the Project of the
Seine. Madame Espinasse was there in a robe
of blue, when dispatch announcing his death
came from the Minister of War to the Prefet
He broke the news to her as tenderly as posi-
BILE, when she tainted away, and was carried
to her hotel.
SIGNoR MoNTANELLI, the former Tuscan
Minister, who has been living for some years
in exile in Paris, where he wrote the tragedy
of Gamma" for Ristori, came to Alessandria
on the 25th of May, and had an audi
ence of the Emperor. The distinguished
statesman and poet has accepted commission
in the corps Of the Tuscan Volunteers.
WOUNDED HoNoR.--The correspondents of
the Steele at the seat of war report that "most
of the Austrian wounded have to turn on their
faces when their sores are dressed" From
this statement it would seem that the gallant
defenders of woman-fogging despotism have
themselves received considerable whipping
Punch.
