The report of the Postmaster-General, to which you are referred lor many interesting details in relation to this important and rapidly extending branch of the public service, shows that the expenditures tor the year ending June 30.1854, including one hundred and thirty three thousand four hundred and eighty-three dollars of balance due to foreign offices, amounted to eight million seven hundred and ten thousand mne hundred Md seven dollars. The gross receipts during the same period amounted to six millions nine hundred and hlty five thousand five hundred and eighty six dollars , ex hibiting an expenditure over income of one million seven hundred and fifty-five thousand three hundred and twenty one dollars, and a diminution of deficiency. as compared with the last year, ot three hundred and - xtv-one thousand seven hundred and fifty-six dollars. I The increase of the revenue of the department for the . rear ending June 30, 1834, over the proceeding year, v»s nine hundred and seventy thousand three hundred and ninety-nine dollars. No proportionate increase. ; however. can be anticipated for the current year.in [ consequence of the act of Congress of June -3, 1854, ( providing for increased compensation to all postmasters, i From these statements it is apparent that the I ost Os- . U.e Department, instead of defraying its expenses, ac cording to the design at the time ot its creation, is now | and under existing laws must continue to be, to no , email extent, a charge upon the general treasury The . •oast of mail transportation, during the year ending . June 30, 1554. exceeds the cost of the proceeding year . bv four hundred and ninety-live thousand and seventy fou- thousand and seventy-four dollars. I again call I your attention to the subject of mail transportation by | ooean steamers, and commend the suggestions of the ( Poetmaster-General to your early attention. During the last fiscal year eleven million seventy thousand nine hundred and thirty-five acres of the pub lic lands have been surveyed, and eight million one hundred and ninety thousand and seventeen acres brought into market. The number of acres sold is seven million thirty-five thousand seven hundred and thirty five , and the amount received therefor nine mil lion two hundred ane eighty-five thousand five hundred wnd thirty-three dollars. The aggregate amount of lands, located under military scrip ant land warrants, •elected as swamp lands by States, and by locating un der grants f.»r roads. is upwards of twenty-three mil millious of acre*; and the sales during the two first two quarters of the current year present the extraord- , inary result of five and a half milliod sold, exceeding . bv nearly four millions of acres the sales of the corre. - j poeding quarters of thw last year, thus increasing to , an extent unparrelled during any like period in our i past history the amount of revenue provided from this ( •ource for the Fede:al Treasury. 4 The commeuda le policy ol the government, in lion to setting apart public domain for those who have | served their country in time of war. is illustrated by j the fact, that since 17UU no hi*s than thirty millions of j aeres have been applied to twß object. 5 * The suggestions, which I submitted in my annual ■ message of last year, in srfrpsnce to grants us land in I aid of the construction of railways, were less full and j explicit th'an the magnitude of the subject and subse- ■ quent developments would seein to render proper and | desirable Us the soundness of the principle then as ••erted, with regard to the limitation of the power ot Congress, I ep ter tain no doubt; but ia its application it is not enough that the value of lands in a particular locality may.be enhanced; that, in fact, a larger amount o' money may probably be received, in a given time, for alternate sections, than could have been realised for all the sections, without the impulse and influence of the proposed improvements. A prudent proprietor looks beyond limited sections of his domain, beyond preoent results, to the ultimate effect which a particular Ene of policy is likely to produce upon all his posses sions and interests. The government, which is trustee, to this matter, for the people of the States, is bound to take the same wise and comprehensive view. Prior to and during the last session of Congress, up wards of thirty millions of acres of land were with drawn from public sale with a view to applications for grants of this character pending before Congress. A •arefnl review of the whole subject led me to direct khat all such order* be abrogated, and the lands restored to market; and instructions were immediately given to that effect. The applications at the last session con templated the construction of more than five thousand miles of road, and grants to the amount of nearly twenty millions of acres of the public domain. Even admitting the right on the part of Congress to be un <p.ertionable. it is quite clear teat the propo*ed grants would be productive of good, and not evil ! The differ ent projects are confined, for the present, to eleven Btetes of this Union, and one Te.ritory The reasons aligned for the grants, show that it is proposed to put the works speedily in process of construction. When we reflect, tkat since the commencement of the con struction of railways in the United States, stimulated a* they have been by the large dividends realised from the earlier works over the great thoroughfares, and be- | tween the most important points of commerce and pop- . elation, encouraged by State legislation, and pressed J forward by the amazing energy of private enterprise, only seventeen thousand miles have been completed in all the States in a quarter of a century—when we see the crippled condition of many works commenced and upon what were deemed to be sound princi ples, and safe calculations; when we contemplate the enormous absorption of capital withdrawn from the or dinary channels of business, the extravagant rates of to teres tat this moment paid to continue operations, the bankruptcies not merely jn money but in character, and the inevitable effect upon finances generally ; can U be doubted that the tendency is to run to excess in ; this matter’ Is it wise to augment this excess by en maraging hopes f sudden wealth expecting to flow from magnificent schemes dependent upon the actien of Congress Does the spirit which has produced such results, need to be stimulated or checked ? Is it not the better rule to leave all tuese works to private enter prise, regulated, and when expedient, aided by the co operation of States ? If constructed by private capital the stimulant and the check go together, and furnish a •alalary rertraint against speculative scheme- and ex Dravagance. But it is manifest that, with the most es foctive guards, there is danger of going too fa*: and too far, We may well pause before a proposition contempla ting a simaltvueous movement for the construction of railroads, which, in extent, will equal, exclusive of the great Pacific road and all its branches, nearly one-third of the entire length (of such works, now completed, in the United States, and which cannot cr.st, with equip ments, less than one hundred and fifty millions of dol lars. The dangers likely to result from combinations ol interests of this character, can hardly be over esti mated. But, independently of these considerations, where is the accurate knowledge, the comprehensive telelHgence, which shall discriminate between the re lative claims of these twenty-eight proposed roads, in •leven States and one Territory ’ Where will yon be gin, and where end ’ If to enable these companies to •xecute their proposed works, it is necessary that the aid of the general government be primarily given, the policy will present a problem so comnrehen-.ive in its bearings, and so important to our political and social well being, as to claim, in anticipation, the severest snalyßis. Entertaining these views. 1 recur with satis faction to the experience and action of the lust session at Congre*-, as furnishing assurance that the subject will not fail to elicit a careful re examination and rigid ••r utiny. It was my intention to present, on this occasion, some wrggestions regarding internal improvements by the general government, which want of time at the close •f the last session prevented rny submitting od the r<*- torn to the House of Representatives, with objections, of the bill entitled, ‘ an act making appropriations lor the repair, preservation, and completion oi certain pub lic work* heretofore commenced under authority of law, 1 but the space in this (ommunication already oc •opiod with other of immediate public exigency con •‘ti'x.ui me to reserve that ; übject tor a special message, which will be transmitted to the two houses of (lon gress at an early doy. The judicial establishment of the United rttates re- modification, and certain reforms iu the manner of conducting the legal business of the government are aleo much needed; but as I have addressed you upon tooth of these pubjecti at length before 1 have only to ea ■ your attention to the suggestions then made. former recommendations, in relation to suitable provision for various objects of deep interest to the in- Daoitants of the District of Columbia are renewed. Many of these objects partake largely of a national v •faaractcr, and are important, independently, of their gelation to the prosperity of the only considerable or community in the Union entirely unrepresent ed Ju Congress. I thus presented suggestions on such subjects as appear to me to be of particular intereetor importance, and tUprefore most worthy of coUMideration during the short leviftinfng period allotted tn tits labors of Lb«« jvoMmt <J«ogres?

FRANKLIN I’IERCL. ! Washington, December 4, 1854. "" FOREIGN NEWS Further Foreign News. The English papers by the Africa to the ISth instant, furnishes a mass of interesting matter in reference to the war, operations in the Cri mea, and the progress of the siege of Sevastopol. We make room this morning for the annex ed: The Progress of the Siege of Sevastopol. OFFICIAL REPORT. A supplement of the London Gazette Extra ordinary contains despatches from Lord Raglan, dated October 31 and Novemb r 3. The latter reports progress since the 28th October, and states as follows : “Since I on the 28th ult., the enemy had considerably increased their forces in the valley of Tchernaya, both in artillery, cavalry, and infantry, and have extended their left, not only unoccupying the village ol Camara, but the heights beyond it, and pushing forward pick ets and even guns towards our extreme right, and these yesterday fired a few shots, apparent ly to try tne range, which fell somewhat short. These movements have induced me to place as strong a force as I can dispose ol on the percip itious fidge in that direction, in order to prevent any attempt to get round Balaklava by the sea; and the whole line is slrengthed by a breast work, which has been thrown up by the High land brigade, the Royal Marines, and the 1 urk ish troops, thus circumscribing that part of the position; whilst immediately in front of the gorge leading into the town a stiong redoubt is in course of being completed, which is to be gar risoned by the 93*1 regiment, and armed with several guns ; and on high ground behind and to left is a battery manned by seamen, whica the position to be defended by the •troops under the command of Major General Sir Cohn Carppbeli. Further to the lelt, <^ !, d hi more elvated*pG§i|jon, is the brigade ot the first ! French division ’commanded by Gen. Vinois, ready to march to the assistance ot any ol the British force that may be assailed, and main taining the connection between the troops in the valley and those on the lidge, on which the main armies are posted. “The harbor of Balaklava is,under the charge of Capt. Dacre, ot the Sanspareil; the Reai- Adrniral Sir Edmund Lyons is in the roadstead outside, and is in daily communication with me. “Thus every step has been taken to secure this important point, but I will not conceal from your grace that I should be more satisfied it 1 could have occupied the position in considerably greater strength. “ With regard to the operations against Sevas topol, there is no material diminution in the en my’s fire, and yesterday morning, tw’o hours be fore daylight, the cannonade from parts oi the south front was heavy in the extreme, both on the French and English lines, and it occasioned some loss but less than might have been expect ed under the circumstances. “ In the meanwhile the French, who have be fore them the town an t real body oi the place have taken advantage of the more favorable ground, and are carrying on approaches system atically on the most silent and commanding part oi the enemy’s lines, and they have constructed and opened batteries, the precision of the fire of which has most materially damaged the Rus sian works, although as yet they have not suc ceeded in silencing their guns. “ I enclose the naval return ot casualties?' Casualities from the 27th October to the Ist November, the Oth day inclusive : Total—Major Powell, five rank and file killed; Capt. Maude, 2 sergeant*, 1 drummer, 23 rank and file wounded. A return of casualities from the 22d October | to the Ist November, both days inclusive, is also ■ enclosed, including the names of the men eng?.g- ; ed in the cavalry charge : In the naval brigade five men ware wounded during the four days ending on the Ist Novem ber. A list of the prisoners taken by the Russians including Lieutenant Chadwick, 17th Lancers, is also enclosed. Other Account*. {Frurn the Londons GkJ>e of Friday | I.ntekestino Particulab —The following is an authentic record, from the best sou ices oi the allied progress in the siege up to tbe 3d in stant : The French are steadily sapping towaids the town. Our engineers have been equally active. A large covered way has been constructed, which extends from Gordon’s battery towarads the Rus sian Redan tort, and turning off at. a fight angle, laces the latter formidable defensive work. This will serve to cover our storming party when the decisive day auives. A body of 1 600 have been attached to the first British division, and are employed in the trenches and in constructing the covered way. A skirmish took place in the night of the 30th between French and Russian advanced pickets. The Russians have thrown up works in the town which enfilade our front batteries, and we have raised others to meet the new difficulty.— The Lancaster guns have been moved further in by 500 yards than they were at first; and the French being better situated lor advancing their works are now firing away ata distance ol only 400 yards from the outer houses. For some days Lancaster shells and rockets have been thrown into the town, but they have reached nothing that would produce a conflagration. A tew poor houses have been fired occasionally, but they have been pulled down at once by the enemy before there could be any communication w ith tbe neighborhood. On the 28th of October, the weather set in bitterly cold, and the outlying pickets, English and French, must Lave lelt it severely, it is, however, some consolation to hear that, though the enemy within Sevastopol are in good bar racks, their force on the Hank of the allies is un provided with tents. On the Ist of November the Einu arrived from Constantinople w ith 1,000 French troops. Gn the 3d ol November, the fire on both sides had been more brisk than for several days pre viously. On tbe same day the Russians in large force reconnoitered Balaklava, which it was expected would be soon attacked, and under this idea 460 marines were about being trans ferred thence from JCupntoria, Lord George Paulet. in th- Belleropbon, wait" lejive the I Katcha on the evening of the 4lh. to take chai .*e ' of Eupofotia, the holding of which will be » x i clusively confined to marines and blue jackets. A despatch from Gen. Canrobert, dated the ' 3d, has been received by the t ien»'b govern- . moi.t. It announces that the trench works ot the French enmp were then at 1-10 metres lnnii , the encrinte, butthat the difficulties o( the soil preelntled the possibility <>l their being pushed nearer. The place d’arnn-s were about to be es tablished where the attacking columns were to be assembled. The works were carrieu on un der cover of the batteries on the right, winch had opened their tires on the Ist. ILe cannon ade was most energetic on both sides. Ihe ene my was constructing new batteries behind the enceinte, which has a view on the works ol the allies. r he enemy’s forces, whose number it wus difficult to estimate, were fortifying them selves on the heights to the north-east ot Balak lava, which they menaced on the left, ibe utmost vigilance ot the allied Generals was di rected to that point. The loss of the allies was of little importance in comparison with that oi the enemy, which was known to be very con siderable. The sanatary condition ot the army was excellent. The weather was line, though cold. In the cavalry charge on the 25th Major Dal ton, ot the 40th regiment, was not killed, but Major Powell, of the same regiment, had fallen. Accounts report the deaths of Major Dalton and Major Powell of the 49th regiment; the lat ter was shot through the head by a Russian ri lleman. General Sir de Lacy Evans was on board the Simoon, laid up with diarrhcea, and the effects of the fall from his horse. A number ol officers, wounded in the affair ot the sth, had ar rived at Constantinople. It is not believed that any assault will be made until the allies are strongly reinforced.— The weather had become extremely cold. Ihe j Russians were carrying stores to the north side I of the harbor, and were making arrangements tor the transpol tation of troops to that quarter.— I This induces the belief that they lid not expect, to be able to retain the south side. Scarcely a ■ house in Sevastopol has escaped shot and shell. I The reports of the burning of a hospital, and of a | flour magazine, and of the grest mortality in Sevastopol, appear to be coned. There was plenty of water on the north side. Russian I prisoners state that the authorities had inflamed the hatred ot the soldiers and people towards the allies to the greatest intensity, by stating that Russian prisoners and wounded were treated j with barbarous cruelty. The men were there- [ fore determined to resist to the last. Spirits i were freely distributed to the troops engaged in ’ the earthworks. The French, injearrying a mine toward the l fortifications in the town, discovered a stiong I Russian mine, intended to blow,up the Frencu j breaching battery. The French then counter- . mined, and removed 18 cwt. of powder from the i Russian mine. The following is a telegraphic summary el le,- i ters from Constantinople, of the Sth, brought to j xMarseilles by the Sinai: ■‘The latest advices from toe Crimea are of j the 3d inst. Capt. Fellowe, who was dispatch- | ed with a flag oi truce, had an interview with General Gortschakoff. in the valley ot Balakla- ■ va, on the 28th, and ascertained that Cornets • Clowes and Chadwick were prisoners and I wounded, but well treated. Sickness was on i the increase, and the cold -’ery severe at night. A French battery of 64 guns opened lire on the I Ist, and made great, impression. Our lire, as ; well as that ot the Russians, was weak. The Himalaya is disabled,and unable to keep the sea.-’ I Admiral Bruat had landed on the 26th. near , Yalta, where he had been very well received by [ the inhabitants. In the offiieg the sea had been very heavy, aid many s l, pr jad been obliged to I put out to sea. Admirals Hamelin and Dundas I were in the bay ofKatcha._ The Sinai met at I sea the brigade of Gen. .''ayran, on its way tiom Athens to the Crimea, and 2,000 Rouaves, I who had been embarked in Algeria.” [From the Aloniteur of Mt day ] ; Vienna, Nov. 16 —A telegraphic dispatch > from a Russian source, dated Odessa, November I 11, announces that no event of importance had taken place before Sevastopol on the 6tb, 7th and Sth inst. The Russians were occupied in repairing the damage done to the fortifications. The situation of the besiegers on the Bth was evidently a good one. A Russian Account —The Kreuz Zeitung, the organ of the Russian patty at Berlin, has published the tollowitrg'Kfcm, purporting to be written in Sevastopol, during the bombardment, and dated October 24 :-“ After being bombarded for eight days, the town has indeed suffered a good deal, but the fleet is unhurt; only the steam- I er Viadimir has got two balls in her. The sail- < ors who man the works erected by Colonel lod- i tleben suffer the most. The resistance seems to I irritate the besiegers, for within the last few ; days they have been firing with red-hot balls. ; You cannot escape them anywhere in the town. I If the bombardment lasts long the streets of the | southern part will be, so to say, paved with iron, i The sailors under Todleben are. as it were, the { living bulwark of the Ciimea. They are admi- , rable I Nachimoff, who formerly had never been . horseback,is now continv illy riding along the I lines of batteries. In his own concise mannner he addresses his sailors, who adore him. Ihe moral influence of such .en makes them sa viours in great crises. Menschikoff, too, does not spare himself. As he was lately riding along the fortifications in the briskest of the fire, the artillerymen called out to him—‘ This is not the place for your highness ! The commander oi a ■ baston said to him. ‘Hfc-e you come here be- . cause you do not trust us ? 1 swear to you, we ! shall all of us, to the very last, do our duty.’| ‘Then, let me also do mine,’ said the prince, ; calmly. Dannenberg will arrive at Sevastopol on the 2d of November.’ Movements ov Turks on the Frontiers. — ; Jassay, Nov. LOth. —The movement of Ottoman ; troops towards Moldavia and the Pruth continues with great sensation in the Principalities. It is not doubted that the Turkish army is in a con dition to assume the offensive with vigor. Omer Pacha is expected in pe.son on the Pruth. On the 11th 2000 English horses reached Malta, together with munitions ot war. [From the London Timet,Nov- 17.| Strength of the Contending Armies. The siege continues. Omitting the doubtful report of another great battle on the 11th, we have now telegraphic bulletins of the siege up to the 81 h and 9th, and it is evident that at those; dates the increasing numbers and boldness of tin l ’ enemy made no difference in the operations be fore the walls. It is only said that the allies aie | fortifying their position on the left bank ot the ; Tchernaya, as might be expected, seeing that|the right bank is occupied by the Russians. The belligerents rnay therefore easily keep their sev eral positions for the present. What we have to deplore is thes eady drain by continual sickness, and now and then a victory. The prospect is sufficiently serious, but there is no immediate cause for anxiety. All the letters from the army show the feeling of perfect confidence and composure as to the pre sent state of affairs, but some little solicitude as to the future. Reinforcements aie wanted even for present effect. Every rnan in the army is overworked. Officers of the highest rank are dying, not only by the usual casualties of war, and by exposure to cold, but by sheer hard work. None of the ptaper proportions are maintained. The besieging army is notin the proper propor tion to the besieged ; the number ol artillerymen is not in proper prop -rlion to the guns; the men in camp are not in proper proportion to those in the trenches ; the hours ol rest are not in proper proportion to the hums of work. Everything is stretched. The army is extending itself, as it were, to dimensions not its own. Such a viola tion of the laws of strength and health is sure to revenge itself. We started with the idea ol 30,000 men us our 'contribution, and it was distinctly explained by all military authorities that an army icquired re cruiting to the extent ot a third ol its number every year. Now, nt the last date, the whole ef fective force ot the British army was no more than 15,700 ; so that to bring it up to 30,000 we should have tosenu nt once 14,300. But the in stant the new troop, breathed the new atmos- phere, slept on the groud, and exposed themselves to the tire oi the enemy, they would become amenable to the same law of waste as th- aimy ific i - weutoiit to leinfoTce, arid there would still be a necessity lor more troops. I o many young readers this may appear nn r<a.,onably i-xactiug. but in the late war. li< ! the population, the wealth and the >- - ans ‘ now, we maintained armies, not only m one ba tie field —3,000 ftiiles off— >ut in many places all over the world. We hud war every w here, and never" lor a moment stopped to consider whether we had not enough on our bands. In (act, England at that tim<- could be compared to nothing so much as that, beautiful pieceut sculp ture representing a child carrying more fruit t nan it can well manage, anti unwilling to relinqimoi any of its burthen, even at the risk oi the whole. We had wais m all Europe, in the East and West Indies, and in Anieiica, all at once, arid seemed to think that, while our hands were ir. it, we might as well go on. Everybody knows that there is a tendency in al! business to accumulate, particularly when it is not well done, and when we habitually un derrate its importance. Thus, in the late war, while we were undertaking the war in the Pen insula we sent an expedition to Sicily, and pick ed a quarrel with the United States. At this moment, happily, we are at peace with ail the world,excepting only Russia, and our rnilitaiy operations are confined to Sevastopol. We have our work before us, and it is really a shame it we choose not to do it well. Al! that is wanted at present is to keep up the force in the field to the amount of 30,000 at a point barely a fortnight’s steaming from Portsmouth —that is, not so tar, in point ot time, trouble and expense, as Spain was torty years ago If we cannot do this—or, rather, it we will not do this—we may as well give up jat once, and say “good-by” to the British em ! pile. I While we urge immediately reinforcements | enough, to keep up the effective force to the | original e tirnate, we WiiHiot assist our purpose j by wilflly or weakly exaggerating tt>e _fo£- j There is a lemarkable peculiarity in Russian i figures. Their armies are very great before a i battle, and very small after; so that it would s“em we not only kill and wound some two or tbiee thousand men of mortal mould, but a phantom multitude besides. The Journal de St. Peters bourg makes out to its own satisfaction that Prince Menschikoff had only 33.000 on the • heights of the Alma. This is encouraging. Should Providence so favor our cause that we beat the garrison of Sevastopol and the army without, we have very little doubt that we shall hear, on the best authority and with much detail, that the garrison was only 25,000, and the army outside no more. Doubtless there has been much exag geration on their side, for it we labor under dif ficulties, so also do they. If they attempt to bring many more than they now have, it must be with much fatigue, with < great want ot fold and ammunition, ai.d with I eveiy kind of distress. Wholly excluded irom ; the sea, tbe Russians cannot support a large army ■ in the Crimea, not, at least, in tbe present state | ot its communications and supplies. Should we : happily succeed in taking Sevastopol their turn , will come, a d they will have to besiege us; witbout tie command of a single port, and w ith- ; out even the power of approaching then own ! shores. Occupyng possibly our own deserted ■ camp, they will have to draws al! es • either from tbe remote parts of tne Crimea, m irom the interior of Russia, through the Isthmus . ol Perekop. We shall see how ong that stale ; ol things will endure. It it lasts .long, n will be ' a new chapter in the history ot war.

Mutiny among the British TROors.—Mal ta, Noo. 10.—The Jura arrived on the sth, from Cork. She put into Malta on account of insu bordinate conduct of a company ot the 50th re giment and another ol the 55th. At one time it was necessary to keep 100 sentries over the dis affected, twool which lately received at sea tiity lashes, and Captain Wickman, commanding the vessel, loaded with grape and brought two oi the ship’s guns to beai upon that part where the prisoners were confined. Tbe two companies nave been landed at Malta, where tbe imgleaders will be tried and punished. Russia.—Berlin, 4 Friday.—The lollowing is the main tenor of the Russian answer. Russia seeing that Austlia is threatening her (Russia’s) ironties will not avail herself otthe good offices of the Vienna Cabinet, but will gladly accept ol Prussia’s mediation. The Emperor is ready to "take the tour guarantees into consideration,” but distinctly states, in reference to the one point, that the protectorate over the principalities can not be given up. The Russian organs speak ol a compact entered into secretly between Austlia and the Western Poweis, to be prepared for any casualties, should Prussia and the smailei States not accede to Austria’s policy. Horrible Occurrence —An occurrence of the most, hoirible nature has taken place. Phe great Hosf ital in Sevas opei was set on lire by the shells of the allies, and was burned to the ground, with all its inmates—two thousand sick and wounded. This frightful circumstance is pass d over as quietly as possible in the. English and French papers. It may be remembered, however, that we published an English story o the effect that' Menschikoff hoisted the Hospital flag over a magazine, which the English directed their fire upon aiqdblew up. We rear the.bmlding thus fired on was leally the Hospital. France.—Two French divisions will sail from Toulon and Marseilles before the end of tbe pre sent mouth of No-ember. We have a repetition of the statement that France wili send 10.600 additional men to tbe Crimea, ol whose expense England shall pay one-half. The Fietich biigade of Genera! Meylan has left Athens for the Crimea. I'be Moniteur states that a sixth company of the third battalion is to be immediately add' J to »ne hundred regiments ot the line. Letteis from the French prisoners in the Rus sians hands speak well of their treatment. Count de St. Aulaire is dead. He was u mem ber ot the institute of France, and under Louis Philippe was ambassador at London and else where. A Paris correspondent of the Obsesvat Beige states that he has good grounds of knowing that part of tbe British cabinet, especially the Earl of Aberdeen, is opposed to Lord Palmers ton’s mission whatever it may be, to France. Switzerland —The London Times Paris correspondent states that, on November Sth, Mr. Fay, U. S. Charge at Berne, declared to tbe Swiss Federal Council that the Cabinet at Washington not only disvowed tbe recent manifesto of Mr. Consul Saunders, but disapproved likewise of the contents of that communication.

CURE OF NERVOUS DISEASES No language can convey an adequate idea of the im mediate, and almost miraculous change which it occa sions in the diseased,debilitated and shattered nervous system, whether broken down by excess, weak by na ture. or impaired by sickness—the unstrung or relaxed organization is at once braced, re-vivified and built up.

Invalids are apprised that Dr. Kinkelin confines his practice to a particular branch of medicine, which en gages his undivided attention. He cautions the unfor tunate against the abu-e of mercury ; thousands are annually mercurialized out of life. Recent affections are promptly extinguished. Twenty years of experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto neglected and imperfectly un derstood. hasenr.bl.d Dr. Kinkelin. (author of a work i on Self Preservation.) to prove that nine tenths of the cause.- of nervous debility, local and constitutional weakness, mental and physical suffering, are traceable to certain habits, forming the most secret yet deadly and fatal springs of domestic misery and premature mortality Take Particular Notire.— There isan evil habit some times induiged in by boys, in solitude, often growing up with them to manhood, and w hich, if not reformed in due time, not only begets serious obstacles to matri monial happiness, but gives rise tu a series of protract ted, insidious,and devastating affections. Few of those who give way to this pernicious practice are aware of the consequences, until they find the nervous system shattered, feel strange and unaccountable feelings, and ' vague fears in the mind. i The unfortunate thus affected becomes feeble, is una ! ble to labor with accustomed vigor, or to apply his mind t.» study ; his step is tardy and weak, he is dull, irresolute, and engages in hi-sport with less energy ' thaxi usual. It ii« emancipate himself before the practice has ( d<»u'* its worst, and enter matrimony, his marriage is unfruitful, and bis sense tell* him that this is caused by ; his early follies. These are consideration* which should awaken the attention of those similarly situated, Marriage require- the fulfilment of several condi tions, in ui dcr that it may bo really the cause of mutu al happiness.

A medicine must have merit,and great merit too, to stand the test of public opinion. No art of puffing can galvanize a worthless article, so as to keep it up ah a good medicine, if it be not really so. A good medicine will live, become popular, and ex tend ;ts sales year after year, in spice of opposition. The people readily find out its virtues, and the fame oi them passes from mouth to mouth with more rapidity than newspapers can spread it.
