Splendid Turnout of the Volunteer Army~The Pope and My. Gladstone—The Cobden Ree formers in Council—New Peers—Condition of the Money Market. The London journals of the 14th of April contain detailed accounts of the British Volunteer review at Portsmouth, which is pronounced the greatest suc- oess yet achieved by the volunteer army. According to reports from Rome the Pope has re- quested Mgr. Manning, Archbishop of West- minster, to thank Mr. Gladstone for his attitude in the Honse of Commons upon the subject of the Es- tablished Church in Ireland, The Leeds “Cobden Club” held its first banquet on the Mth inst, The speeches generally enjoined upon the liberal party unity of action and active prepara- tions for the next election. Mr. Foster, M. P., sald ‘the liberals had now more power than when they Sat on the ministerial benches under Palmerston’s administration. Mr, Baines, M. P., expressed a hope that if the Queen should call upon Mr. Bright to take Pee in the Conncils of State the member for Birming- jam would accept omce. The London Gazette notifies that the dignity of a baron of the United Kingdom has been conferred on the Right Hon. Sir John Trol- lope, by the tirle of Baron Hestwen: on Sir John Walsh, by the title of Raron Ormathwaite; on Sir Brook Bridges, by the title of Baron Fitzwaiter, and on William O’Nell, by the titleof Baron O'Neill. The Prince of Wales in Ireland. «_ {From the London News, April 15.) The Prince and Princess of Wales set foot to-day on Irish soil, and they are assured of a thousand- fold welcome from ‘the gallantry and courtesy of the nation, as well as from its loyalty. Even disaffection will respect the guests ‘of a people; and a nation of born courtiers will not violate in any jot the code of politeness. The peer ‘and the peasant, rich and poor, Protestant and Catholic, Trojan and Tyrtan, will know no discrimina- tion tn the cordiality of their welcome to a kind hearted and well meaning prince, and to a lady whose grace, cee and patient suferings have won and touched all hearts. The royal visit is in one respect well timed. At the moment when the House of Commons has virtually pledged it- Belf to a great act of national justice it is fitting that the reigning family should not be wanting 1 signs of good will toward Ireland. It might be well if royal visits had been earlier and more frequent. * ™ * * The only remedy for Irish disaffection ts justice, But the signs of good will have their valug as pledges of good works. An appeal to the loyalty of the opie is an implied Ba o fulfil the conditions on which joyalty depends. The task of necessary repression has been firmly and judiciously performed. Its ex- ecution may defy censure and may even exact ap- pfoval, but it cannot win arfection, For that other Sgenciés must be used, and the visit of the Prince and Princegs of Wales is an augury, we hope, of their em- ployment, Except in the rarest instances, Irish dis- affection to the English covernment has seldom in re- cent limes grown into actual disloyalty to the person of the monarch or to the ruling dynas On the con- ‘tfaty, almost the only feeling common to Irishmen of both creeds and all ranks has been @ hearty alle- ce to the throne. In the ceremonial of which e venerable cathedral wiil be the scene, Protestant ‘and Catholic peers will find themselves side by side, ‘untroubled by controversies as to whether the saint who gives. his name alike to the Church and_ their cage Sah order was a Catholic, or 8 Protestant, or a Frmitive Christian, or,- as Mr. Ogborne on learned authority contends, a meet if but the shadow, of a nai They will meet ag Irishmen and as [oyal subjects. Faction, party &nd sect will forthe time be absorbed ina common patriotism and allegiance. Tne less courtly crowd which will gather on an occasion probably a3 interesting to the royal visitars at the Punchestown race Course will be animated by substantially the same feelings. In giving occasion to them the Prince And Princess of Wales will render a real aid to the larger and wiser statesmanship of Uv ture, It ts to be hoped that such help will be revewed from time to time, From the London Times, April 15.] *** The Irish people have been more truly and effectually represented at Westminster than they eVer were in College Green; they have done more for themselves, and have constituted a more influential part of the general government of tis empire, They have repeatedly made adminis- trations and have unmade them; and have con- tributed a@! jeast their share to our political and pudiic functionaries. Nothing has been done without them; very much for them; and while the popular cause and popular interests of Ireland have Deen continually asserted to a point far beyond even recent experience, all the interests of this island wfecting an exclusive and prescriptive character have continually decreased in as great a proportion.

The faclill- tles which directors pos of communicating with the shareholders at the expense of the company give to them an inseparable advan over the proprietors, who were not even allowed to know the names of their fellow shareholders, except at a cost which no individual shareholder would incur. In the London ‘and Northwestern Railway, with which he was connected, six of the direc- tors retired annually; but the board claimed to nominate four out of six and for any practi- cal difference in the result they might just as well claim the other two. Shareholders might be quite competent to understand and to lay down gen- eral principles, but they were not competent to work them out, nor would it be for their interest that the directors of a rallway should be liable to perpetual interference in the management of the under- taking under their charge by an irresponsible body outside, There were certain matters over which the shareholders ought to exercise an absolute con- trol, and that, too, without the necessity of haying recourse to an organized opposition, with all its con- current evils, ere an effort to this nature was required to enable the shareholders to exercise their legitimate influence, it was clear that there was something constitutionally wrong. What was nec- essary for the protection of their property was an easy and effectual means of controlling the expen- diture, and also of determining the a paar and policy by which the undertaking should be con- jucted. “Although he should deprecate any attempt to overawe the directors by means of a permanent organization, the position in which shareholders found themselves was so far exceptional as to de- mand exceptional measures for its correction. He thought it would be far better, and tend to a better understanding between directors and proprietors, if, instead of wasting strength in ee to cope with the directors, under the law as it now stood, they were calinly to review their relative positions, and at ouce seek, through Parliament, for such changes in the law as might be necessary for the object in view. Mr. GALSWoRTHY sald the great evil at present was the use of proxies, So long as they existed the share- holders could have no power over the directors and must continue at their mercy. Nor could they have independent auditors till that system was abolished, Mr. WniGLey replied, observing that there was nothing new in the principle he advocated, but was that adopted by landowners in the management of ae estates, and by manufacturers in that of their nulls,’ The Chairman conveyed the thanks of the Confe- rence to Mr. Wriziey for his paper, amld applause. hr. ©. i.

The rate of discount has now retained at 2 per cent for a longer period than on any former occasion, It has stood at that point for 264 days. As regards the generdl abundance of money, however, there have been times of much greater duration than that through which we have thus far recently passed, After the great railway panic of 1847, a period of nearly five years ensued during which the rate never een more sce vent, and was often down at 24g nd 2. The distress created by the convulsion of 1866 was far more intense even than that from the railway apes but while it was consequently mgre powerful in eer, every disposition to speculation it Was not so fatal to the operations of commerce, and the power of the country to realize profits has, there- fore, been manifested with little comparative inter- ruption, Hence the accumulation of unemployed money is greater now than was witnessed after that occasion since, While we have been in the employ- ment of a fair degree of tracing prosperity we have nursed a state of dread that has caused us to hoard ae unparalleled degree the fruits of that pros- perity. Under these circumstances it Is probable that, but for the depiorable character of the last wheat crop, the bank charge would during the past autumn have been down to 14g per cent. Should the coming harvest prove abundant, and peace be preserved, the present plethora may be expected to in- crease, since the daily lessons still furnished in the Court of Chancery of the perils which are almost inseparable from every joint stock con- cern upder our existing legal system must effec- tually prevent any revival of the spirit of adven- ture’ in that form, while the contest between France and Prussia as to which Power can soonest exhaust the financial energies of its people in war- like armaments must operate as a@ check to any ee or indiscrimimate ventures Im continental joans.

Conference of Railway reholders. (From the London News, April 1.) Yesterday morning a conference of rallway share- holders from all parts of the kingdom Was held at the Town Hall, Manchester, summoned together by the Railway Shareholde Association, There was a large and influential attendance. The object of the conference is to effect improvements in railway administration ahd lezisiation. A great nam- ber of letters have been received, from which extracts will be of interest. The Marquis of Clanricarde writes that he will bein Ireland, and re- grets that he cannot attend the meeting. He says the papers to be discussed are of the highest interest and ingiadst ne to the shareliolers, ‘The Right Hon. W. E.

The Grand Vizier’s Report on the Condition of Crete—Causes of the War and Inferences from the Struggle—Material and Moral Aff from Greece and Russia~Turkish Provine cinlism as It Is—Defence of the War Acts Against Insurgents—Conquest and National- ism in Opposition. CONSTANTINOPLE, April 3, 1868, On Saturday last, just five weeks after the return of the Grand Vizier, his report on his mission to Crete was read at a council of Ministers convened at the palace. As a@ literary production and a state paper it presents another evidence of the ability of its author, and may be regarded on the whole as a very fair exposé of the facts connected with the insur- rection since its commencement, considering the in- terested source from which it emanates. The report has the following paragraphs:— . If I have not the happiness to lay before your Majesty the news of the full and entire pacification of every [ara of Crete, still Ihave the satisfaction of testifying, and that in the most positive manner, that the mission with which I have been ee by your Majesty is by no means a failure, as the friends of the insurrection and their dupes strive to give the impression, both here and in Europe. I have not the slightest hesitation in giving the assurance that the measures adopted by order of your Majesty will produce the most complete and prompt results if the transport of families should finally cease, and will triumph just as surely, but more tardily, if this re- gretable interference continues. The Grand Vizier assigns three causes for the insurrection, the first of which—in fact but the semblance of a pretext—is the discontent of the population, ‘The second is the grande tdée Panhellenique, that unrealizable Utopia worked to the exclusive profit of other ambitions; a ramification of underground work which mines most European nations by means of a new instrument, the principle of nationalities; a dangerous principle which can never be admitted by Turkey, and which serves in Crete to make g religious war. ‘In fact the Cretans all speak the same lan- guage, the Mussulmans being as much natives as the Christians. ‘The third lies in the pressure exercised upon the Cabinets, allies of Turkey, through public opinion, de- ceived by means of asystem of falsehoods and calum- nies, propagated by the press, which has given rise to a system of intervention equally new, known henceforth under the name of salvage of families, the result of which Is to give the insurgents freedom of action in relieving them of their family cares as well as those counsels af submission which the presence of the suffering women, children and aged ‘would naturally produce. There is still a fourth cause. which existed before all the others, that influences everything in the Hast, and which your majesty will recognize by this simple announcement, It would have been better had Aali Pacha frankly stated to the Sultan that by the conditions of the treaty of 1830 (although the desire of the Cretans to be detached from Turkey and incorporated with the new'kingdom of Greece was refused at that time) they were admitted to an exceptional and advan- tageous position over the otyer populations of the empire, And however honest the intentions of the imperial government may have been the promised concessions have not been carried out in goed faith by its local representatives in the island in years past, which has created discontent and caused re- volts from time to time among the population, and to this cause alone must the origin of the present re- volt be attributed. This course would also have given an air of impartiality to the report which would have insured for it a moro favorable reception with the European Cabinets, who are fully informed asto the original causes of the insurrection, but perhaps not so well posted in regard to the machina- tions for keeping it alive in the face of the ample concessions now for the first time honestly carried out through the wise measures adopted by the Grand Viater. It must be admitted also that since the breaking out of the insurrection the support, both moral and material, extended to the insurgents by Greece and Russia might very propefly be made the sub- ject of complaints much more forcible than the mild allusion contained in. the report. With these remarks I will continue the translation of the report of the Grand Vizier, leaving the reader to make his own comments. It is sufMictent to see each of these causes In operation to determine what amount of influenee each exer- cises on the actual state of things in Crete and to perceive the obstacles which in their artificially com- bined aggregate complicated my task before my arrival, At the same time facts themselves protest against the calumnious accusations which have been charged against the imperial army and the reproach of weakness against the government. As to the dis- content of the populations, what foundation is there for such assertion ? Crete is the most western of all the provinces of the empire. Ithas a mild climate and is rich in its pro- auctions. All who have seen the island before the insurrection could judge of its real prosperity. The inerease of its population in spite of frequent eml- grations is suffictent proof. Taxes were one-quarter less than in any other province of the empire. It has never exceeded in Crete the sum of forty piastres for each inhabitant, while in all other places it amounts to at least sixty piastres, This difference re- sults from the fact that by special favor the Cretans were released from any tax on revenue. Liberty of worship, so complete in Turkey, was largely ex- tended in Crete. The Mussulman population, hav- ing its activity and capital engaged in commercial and industrial transactions, were reconciled to tne fusion of the two elements on the ground of material interests, The complaints addressed to your Ma- Pd in the petition of the 14th of May tends to con- my statement. In truth, there was only the semblance of a pretext, since the signers of the petl- tion of the 14th of May are the same who on the 15th signed the circular to- the Powers by which they demand annexation of the island to Greece. We must, then, seek elsewhere the real origin of the in- surrection. In Turkey the liberty of education i no less abso- religious Iiberty. The Hellenique propa- avatied himself of this liberty to make rts, sending for the purpose, as missionaries, tors recruited at Athens. The teachings of litieal doctrines in vogue in Greece, aided by the saching of a portion of the cle native or reign, introduced by infiltration the disease of elienism into the minds of a people ignorant and easily impressed to the profit of an idea the realiza- tion of which was presented to them in all cases as an absolute pledge of felicity. This is the moral cause of the Insurrection. If to this you would add the matertal causes they may be found in the follow- ing facts, the importance of which will strike every honest mind:— Before the insurrection the individual debts tn Crete amounted to 150,000,000 of piastres, and of this gum the Mussuiman population were the creditors for more than two-thirds. There were besides many persons having @ universal interest In shaking off tue oke of the government to get rid of the obligations Jowards the treasury in their quality of tithe farmers. Many ef the principal chiefs of bands are in this position, Sach a state of ti gave rise in the mimi of some to the t ht of ridding themselves of their debt, and inepired the mass of Christians ‘with the Rope of enriching themselves atthe expense jussaiman of the Mi ulation, who would, it was ex- ted, be from the island at the same time Prat annexation with Greece would take place. If “‘Burope had been aware of these odious acts, it would ave been indi it. It then became neces- sary to deceive it, and the revolt which counted in Greece alone one hundred and seventeen journals in ita service, used them very skilfully to impute to Mussulman barbarity the destruction of pro- rt} joreover, the persons killed in batties bath the imperial troops were represented aa innocent victims, Euro believed these falsehooda, systematically circulated by the Helienic ress with the utmost industry, never suspoctin, it was the victim of @ speculation on lis good faith. It would have been very casy, however, to have put itself right as to the value of these calum- nies by bringing to mind tye Old Roman adage, “tho ality is he who profits hy the crime.” How oan we Pegcmen. in the island of Crete men, both Mussulmans and Christians, go slightly re- moved from savages that they are incapable of curb- th their interests to practice tan re In the meantime Panhellenism, which I have cited as having the heaviest ity in this set all its resources at work. I have already cated the ‘t played by the press. Committees were formed, h sul tions in Greece and the Greek colonies.

It will not be out of place to reply here to the a0- ernraaie! Was it iat ancien ee erin Vv necessary are war reece? or, what would be equivalent to it—seize the piratical ships in the very which served them as a refuge? the Yeason to do: 80, and hesitated to authorize it, even at the risk of war, but for the very great interest elsewhere manifested from he commencement of the conflict. We do not forget advances, identical in their basis, made with a view to obtain the annexation of the island to Greece. The view which the government has taken of its rights and duties in the Cretan should silence every calut and insure for it the sympathies of history. So long as Europe is governed by public law and the treaties who can deny the government the independent possession of the island of Crete? Is there a desire to sacrifice the right of conquest to the advan of the new right of na tionalittes? But who does not see that it would be necessary to recast the map of Europe and to plunge olitics into. Crete was united to Turkey a long ime before certain provinces belonging to certain Powers were conquered by these latter. Does it mean that these Powers have decided to sacrifice their own rights, and that the concession asked of Turkey is to become the-rule in Europe? Such is, unquestion- ably, not the idea of the Cabinets, Therefore why should we offer ourselves for the practice of atheory which no one will SpPly to himself, to the greatest detriment of European interests? Is it that the re- spective position of conquered provinces was dif- ferent elsewhere, because in Crete there is a differ- ence of language and religion between this govern- ment and the governed? But there are Mussulmans who are the subjects of Christian States and Catholics in orthodox countries, Is it the natural antipathy of the conquered for the conqueror? Who will venture to say that it is greater here than elsewhere? Is it that possession is contrary to treaties ? But, without going very far back, one of the most noteworthy con- temporaneous diplomatic acts—the treaty of Paris, signed scarcely twelve years since—solemnly sanc- tions the principle of the integrity of the Ottoman empire, and places that integrity under the collective uarantee of the Powers, and there is great reason for surprise that the idea should exist that the im- pein government would destroy with its own ands @ treaty conciuded at the price of the greatest sacrifices, at the risk of authorizing ey this recedent all ulterior claims and of itself giving the signal of dismemberment. ‘The imperial government is convinced that in naine taining its rights in Crete it has accomplished an act of European conservation; for the arguinents resorted to to wrest from it this province, leaas to nothing less than the setting aside of the very bases .ofpubile order, the result ofa bloody work which has taken ages to a:complish, and to retard civiliza- tion by substituting anew brutal force for right. In sustaining the contest in Crete, the imperial government believes it is defending the very princi- ple of its existence, threatened on all sides, and is resigned to await the triumph of its just cause until the time when right shall prevail. Is it to be biamed for this course of action? Time will tell. In ay, case your Majesty's government repels forcibly the reproach of weakness which has een imputed to it. The Island of Crete is entree in our power, and the insurrection, notwithstaning the efforts of Greece, combined with the sort of coalition that has paralyzed the.action of our army and fleet is reduced to impotency. What government coul flatter itself to suppress promptly the revolt of one of its provinces 50 unfavorable to military opera- tions as Crete—an island witn an extent of one hundred and sixty I e8 of coast, receiving material support from a neighboring country, and a long time defended by an abused ublic opinion, Notwithstanding, in the month of July last, the i surrection was on the point of extinction when third cause brought to its aid an unexpected support. It was at the moment when Omar Pacha had carried the heights of Sphakia, which served as the boule- vard and the arsenal to the revolt. Upon this the rayers of submission flowed in from all sides. The foreign volunteers hastened to quit the isle, and the imperial government confidemély expected an imme- diate renewal of the usual juility. Malevolenec then invented a general massacre of old men, women and children, and certain powers tssned orders to their ships of war stationed in the Mediterranean to undertake, under the, name of sanvetage (saivago) the transportation “of these poor creatures threaten- ed in their life, their honor and thetr worldly goods.” ‘This measure, undertaken for a philanthropic pur- Re, and continued until thé present time by the ussian squadrons exercised and still exercises too important an influencé for the government of your Majesty not to have the right to perceive in it a disguis- ed intervention. Without dwelling on the fact how much this intervention, practised in the name of hu- manity, which does not ask the religion of the unfor- tunate, was unjust®nd partial, inasmuch as it was only intend to protect exclusively Chris- tian families, while the Mussuiman families were equally affected by the calamities of war, it is proper to cite its immediate resnits, Tho revolt resumed fresh courage, for if the imperial government had reason to believe itself in the presence of a European vention the same impression prevailed in the insur- gent camp. Of this we had proof in the warlike stimulus given to the bands, in the ovations offered the foreign ministers at Athens, in the addresses of [Sea voted by the Philhellenic committees, and in the declarations of the Prime Minister of Greece to the Parliament of his country, December 3, 1867. This declaration goes so faras to doubt the motive of the Powers being that of humanity as they pre- tended. “Is ittoa Latter to sentiment, gentle- men, that we must attribute the transportation of families?” Without J oto Ro the doubt of the chief of the Athens Cabinet, it may be asked if the humanitarian ends sought for by Europe have been attained, When we see the Cretan families dragging out a miserable existence on Helienique soil, and in view of the ravages death is making among them, ‘we can but deplore a generous movement which, in- dependent of the inevitabie abuse of which it has been the cause, has only had the effect of introducing into international praciice an unheard of mode of In- tervention, complicated by the violation of an effec- tive blockade, and have delayed :the immediate return to a normal tranquillity. Russta alone thinks proper to persist. * * * * # *# # # # wo ® ‘The report ends thus:—My first act on arriving in Crete on the 4th of October, 1867, afte? confirming the order of your Majesty, the amnesty and truce pro- claimed by the Serdar-l-Ekrem Omar Pacha, was an act of justice.

Ceemeeauae ane England Seeking for a New Mail Wishway to the East—Italy as a Common “onte— Can Frauce “Stop the Way ¢” From the London Tim The letter of our Florence correspondent, appear- ing in another pas of iar's impression, recatis our attention to the important subiect of the trans- mission of the overland mail to India over the Sua Brindisi line across Italy. We have often pointed out the advantages which this line possesses over the present French route by Marseilles, amounting, to sum them up in afew words, to the substitatiom of a short land journey Instead of a long sea yoyaze. The world has gradually and in some measnre ua consciously to itself undergone a great revolution with respect to these matters, There was a time in whioh water afforded the speediest as well asthe safest means of communication. When a King of England with @ coach and six took four hours ie over the dis- tance between Kensington and itehall, when Bish warren. piled their calling on Hounslow and hot Heaths, no wonder if such places as Bristo? Liverpool absorbed all our Atigntic trade. As the time.in which those cities rose into pros perity the great object for passengers and goods was to reach at once as far inland as the vessel which bore them could be made to penetrate. The rocks and shoals in the chan- nels, the fogs and bars in the estnaries, were but ing drawbacks in comparison with the horrors of bad roads and unsafe neighborhoods, Very different is the state of things at the present day. On what- ever point of the coast even the fastest steamer ma) chance to come to land, it has to compete wit! means conveyance im every respect pre- ferable to itself. Had not trade vor ben: turies taken root in certain localities, and were it to take a fresh start on our present system vilization, there can be no doubt that the ‘spots most ly launched out into the broad open ocean would enjoy its monopoly, and that Milford Haven, for instance, would become our best Atlantic port; for whatever was landed at Milford could be m» to travel by rail to any destination in Great Britain with leas logs of time and less fear of accidents than by @ continnation of the voyage up to the most inlets. “Praise the sea and keep to the land” has become an economical no leas than ® prudential rule, and wherever the choice is pessible communication by water is invariably avoided, except when it answers the purposes either of the conveyance of heavy merchandise or of a pleasure trip. Now, the ov id mail, on its ag ig Lon- don to Alexandria, must needs perform both a land and a sea journey. So long as the best means of loeomotion by land was the diligence, the narrowest strip of the continent and the broadest expanse of the Moe/iterranean offered the best route; but since the locomotive has: attained at least twice the speed of the steamer, the ‘ition is reversed. All our object should: be the longest land journey and the shortest sea basaage, and a glance at the route, along that part in which @ free choice ts left to us, say from Macon forward. will satisfy us that a line which from that place strikes across the Alps and follows the course of the Italian Peninsula from Susa to Brindisi is much shorter tham: the one which from Macon and Marseilles must either go around the islands of Sardinia and Sicily, or else ran the hazard of a troublesome navigation acrose the Straits; also that the former route takes us by land over at least three-fourths of the distance whi the latter must achieve by water. The Mediterrancam is like a great ditch, of which more than one-half is bridged over by italy, and the Peninsula Hes, besides, In that northeasterly direction which seems to have been best intended for the convenience of the overland mail. ‘So wise having been the arrangements of nature to serve man’s purposes it seems hard that her pro- vident designs should be for so long a time defeated by mere human stolidity, The obstacles which have hitherto been in the way of this rather necessary than desirable improvement lie, first, in the slug- gishness and incapacity of the Italian government; then in the jealous selfishness of the French railway companies; finally, in tbe apathy and supineness of our own postal authorities. ‘The Italians have not yet provided a line of first rate steamers between Alexandria and Brindisi. They have not set the latter port in the best order. Their railway service leaves much to desire. Finally, they actually disgust and frighten away travellers by the delays and vexations of their custom houses and the dirt and discomfort of their inns and stations. The French, for thelr own part. endeavor to befriend thelr own Marseilles line by the unconscionable do- tention of fourteen hours Paris of the English mails on thelr way to Italy. We need not poing out how easily the French dificulty ought to be overcome by a little pressure of diplomatic remen- strance. The interest of a private company cannot be set against the imperious exigencies of universaa pros . It ts not for such a nation as France to ment of the Biiperor Napoleons (property abneated ment Oj e nperor Nai ‘properly ap} to, ould insist upon a policy at variance with ab the usages of civilized nations. At all events, w: should like the results of such an application, if ever were made, and if an answer were vouc! to it, to be laid before the English public. With re- spect to Italy, we are convinced the advantages accruing to that country from the transit of our mails and passengers would be at as to ds termine that government to accede to any de mands we might prefer, did not their helplessness and improvidence stand in their way. We do net know to what extent it might be worth the while of some of our steam navigation companies to under- take the service between Brindisi and Alexaniria. We do not know why some tidy Swiss or German landlord might not open at Susa, at Brindis!, and everywhere else along the line, some of those de- lightful hotels which turn out such excellent specaia- tions even among the barest summits and the most forbiddin, gorses of the Alps. So far as Italy is con- reduced to a mere Cede of demand It is all an affair of capital, and ifthe Italians are too poor or too slothful to do the wi for themselves we feel confident the speculation would turn out @ paying one, even if it were neces. 7, to buy the whole line, with steamers, raitwaye and houses of accommodation, off Italian hands. As to the al i at the Custom Houses, the diffs culty, like that of the French Post Office, admits of diplomatic treatment. ° Of what importance Italy must needs become ag the common highway of Europe to the East we are reminded by the fact that travellers from all of Germany, from Belgium, from Holland and dinavia will be under as great a necessity to a themselves of it as those coming from the North France or from England. From the Simplon, the St Gothard, the Splugen, the Brenner and the Sommer- ing, all the Alpine roads meet at the Bologna junc- tion, Not only-will a man from Cologne, from Am- sterdam, from Berlin, Dresden or Munich, if bound to the Kast, find the track between Bologna and Brindisi directly in his way, but even the one from Vienna, upon reaching Trieste, will gain both time and comfort uf, instead of Fon ny to) that e, Vents phe his land journey over Udin os Perrary the rT and Brindisi.

We have, however, both our correspondent’s evidence and Captain Ty- ler’s authority establishing the fact that the interrup- tion of communication across the Alps arising from wintry inclemenctes never extends beyond twenty- four hours, and that hapy in mene rare od currences.

Horsr Porraairurr. By Joseph Edwin Simpson. New York: W. A. Townsend & Adams. It is only necessary to run through the pages of this volume to discover that the author is a “horseman”, from top to toe. There is literally nothing in equine portraiture, ext or internal, that ts not touched upon and even minutely detailed with 4 carefulness and skill that bespeak a mind thoroughly versed in the subject of horses, their birth, habits, mode of training and qualifications, Including the measure ments, portrait and points of the famous Dexter. From the breeding stable to the successes of the turf the writer takes us pleasantly through all the phases of “Horse Portraiture’—a some- what curious phase, but, in connection with this volume, by no means inapt. Although written in the form of colloqny between preceptor and pupil, the style is agreeable, and diversified with descrip- tons and anecdotes so cleverly introduced that one almost forgets that he’ is reading for instruction. rather than for amusement. We should think that, this volume would be indispensable to the homsemen! of America, As a companion volume to the splend| work produced by the same publishers, “The Amert+ can Stud Book,” this volume might he classed, Ip its mechanical qualities of printing, paper and bind- ing, it is most cretitable, and would adorn any library.
