European Arnues.
The British army, for the year 1860, is t 6
consist of 240,000 men. This includes the
whole force required for the protection of
the Colonies, and the British Islands in
Europe. The cost will amount to $7 6 ,000,000,
nominally averaging $812.50 for each man for
twelve months. A stupendous army this is in
time Of peace, and an enormous quantity of
money it costs.
Mr. &neer Hutansr, the 'War Minister, a

Joni - tri.Pembrolie, with its vast wealth, and is

Latelittle Jack Homer. :
England, with a' population of 28,000,000, has
in army of 240,000, beings force in proportion
to the 'popnlation•of one in 128 persons.
But, estimating the number of troops actu
rlly serving in Great Britain and Ireland, this
force, as compared with the population, is as
one in 248. Mr. SIDNEY' FIZIONRT OWN all men

Fiance : population, 86,000,000; an army
of 878,000 men, or one in 95. This is the num
bele, .in, the, estimates, but it is known that,
:he reserve not being here included, the pos-
Jible army of France may be raised to 600,000

The regular army of the United States is

Again, as to the proportion of officers to the
number of men In the different European ar..
Mies
• In England and France there are three offi
cers to each company of Infadttry ; four in
Militia, and in Sardiffla ; six in Prussia. Or,
taking It another wny : in Austria there are 26
nsflintry, aiddiera to each officer; 28 in Eng
land; 22 in France; 19 in Prussia; 19 in Ser.
Muhl. • •
' As for the cavalry, the number of officers to
squadron is 7 In France ; 6 in Austria and in
england; 6ln Frauds and in Sardinia. The
number of men to each cavalry officer is 22 in
Austria; 18 In England; 17 in Sardinia; 15
in Prima; aid 18 in France.
'ln artille r y the, number of 'officers to a bat
tery Is six in Ingland, six In Prussia, !bur in
Prance, four In Austria, three in Sardinia.
the number of men to each artillery officer is
thirty-six In ineand, thirty-two in Sardinia,
In France, twenty-nine in Austria, and
nineteen in Prussia., •
These - Were the statistical data brought for
wind by the British War Secretary to show
that there was no truth in the charge that there
was an undue number of officers lithe English
itriy., On one point, a trifle more important
—namely, the, comparative coat of national
detencejn the leading countries of Europe—
Sir ROSNST,PUL ) an able but eccentric man,
volantarilytrupplied some Interesting informa
tion to Ir. Ressmai, who had shirked that
point of the question. -
Sir Ronny Fem. said be had ascertained
that in France the expenditures for. national
debates amounted to one-half the public in.
come; ,in Russia, one-third ; Austria, as every
one knew, was entirely crippled; in Prussia
this expenditure was one-fourth of the public
revenue; in Belgium, one-third; in Sardinia,
fbity per cent.; In Holland, one-filth; in
tivribierland, `one-tenth; and, is to Spode, it
was hardly possible to form any estimate re
specting an army which took three months to
go about fifteen miles. Again, in the budget of
1861, the 'pettye of the French army, like that
of the ,year previous, was 892,000. men, and
88,000 horses. The total military expenditure
amounted:to 418,800,000, while the English
army estimates were £14,842,000, without the
Militia, showing an excess over the French
estimates of £1,042,000. This proved the ex.
travevince of the British expenditure. The
French ,• army; contained 68,000 men, and
58,000 horses more than the effective of the
British army, and yet England spent Z1,042,-
000 inert than France.
There can be no doubt that the British sol
dier coats more than the French, and le by no
WWI s ',tell taken care of, for the money.

We are on the eve of strange and Startling de
velopments. All other questions will hereafter sink
into insignificance should this transtustion carry
our country into Ideate° AS au alined intervention
isfia.favor of the Government she has assisted to
set np. It will be a question of empire, and ad
ash a question, of snore magnitude than any that
hie eowtulead this country since the days of the
Revolution. Other nations may commie* it to be
their duty, with or without, cause, to take part in
the drama.; England, Branca, and Spain, and pro
bably some of the South American dynasties, may
insist upon entering the lists. General Houston,
who may be ogled the inventor of the ides of a
proteotorate'over Mexico, will, no doubt, make hie
appearance, fighting his old enemy on his own
field, and struggling for the glittering Presidential
prise which be has so long coveted. General Wil- '
item Walker and his followers have, doubtless, by
this Hme taken- the initiative, and have either
'reeved upon Central Ameriea, or have penetrated
into Mexico through one of her many vulnerable
,points. 'We shall eta raw sights if Captain Tor
' ner's first broadside should be followed by a de
,olltration of' war on'the part of Miramon.
: have good reason to believe that Lord Lyons,
the British minister, was long ago apprised of the
wishes of his Government in regard to the Mextian
etraroglio, and that there will be no interposition
on the part of Great Britain, should the unpleasant
duty be forced upon the United States of taking up
arms in defence of Juarez as against Miramon. I
am not at liberty to give you the reasons for this
opinion, but I think it may be relied upon.
The friends of Judge Douglas grow more defiant
every day. They claim that be is the best repre
sentative of popular sentiment named by either
party, and they allege that if Charleston does not
put him formally in nomination be will be forced
by oiroumstanees to run as a stump candidate.
Hon Roger- A Pryor, of Virginia, is expected
to make a art of en cathedra Douglas speech in
the Hones within a few days, and Hon. John Hick
man, of Pennsylvania, will, as soon as he can get
'the - floor, deliver his argument, which is said to be
of amost overwhelming character, on the subject
of the aggreitions of 'the' South upon the North.
The Administration cares very little as to the
result of the Conneetiont Wootton. Governor Sey
mour, the Democratic candidate for Governor in
that State, runs upon to Douglas platform, and is
known to be no particular favorite with Mr. Bu
chanan. lie is, in addition, advooated by the Dou
glas men, and the party in power would be quite
willing to see the Republicans succeed.

formance of many operations of the boldest and
moth original character, has successfully endeavor
ed-to ameliorate the neuralgio pains incidental to
a large portion of the human race. In technical
language, he has been perfoiming an improved
operation for " °unction of the trunk of the
second branch of the fifth pair of nerves, as far ne
the foremen rottuidum of the sphenoid bone."
The afflicted mortals who have been suffering
with neuralgia in the face and bead can
appreciate the misery of the unfortunate suf
ferer, not only from the pain of the disease
itself, bat from the frequent operations he
endured to be delivered from his torment. Mr.
J. C. Forbes, a citizen of Hoboken, N. J., in the
month of May, 1849, while passing, a handkerchief
across the upper lip and end' of*h e nose, per
ceived a sharp, poignant pain shong from near
the middle of the upper Hp, on the left side, along
the furrow at the junction of the nose and cheek,
up to the inner angle of the eye of the same side,
and passing deeper through the bone of the cheek.
The alike paiti was started when the upper lip was
touched with the tip of the tongue, or when
making an effort to swallow. These symptoms
assumed a paroxysmal character, with irregular
intermissions, and continued to occasion Mr.
Forbes Intense pain until the autumn of the same
year. The next spring the attack was renewed,
and continued until February, 1852, becoming
More said more painful. By the advice of a
dentist all the teeth were extracted, it being sup.
posed, that the trouble might originate from die.
ease of the teeth, but no relief was afforded. Find
ing no relief from the use of internal remedies, the
patient consulted a hospital surgeon of eminence,
with a view of having an operation performed. In
February,,lBs2, this surgeon dissected, from the
interior of the mouth, without external incision,
the entire cheek from the superior maxillary bone;
the separation of the tissues extending across from
the nose to the prominenee of • the meter bone, and
vertically, from the alveolar border, an high as the
margin of the left orbit. The relief afforded
by this operation continued until the close
of the year, when the same physician per
formed another operation of a different na
ture, which subdued the pain until the
autumn of .1853, when it again returned with in
creased violence, galvanism being tried, with no
beneficial effect. In January, 1854, an eminent
protege:l of surgery in this city again 'divided the
nerve, and cauterized it, which gave relief until
August of the same year, when a similar opera
tion was performed by another surgeon, with
out any beneficial result. The venerable Pro
fessor . Mott then attempted. the care, and
performed three operations, which, although
they lulled the terrible suffering for a
time, left no lasting impression on the disease.
The patient then entered the New York Hospitaly
and remained there until August, 1855, when, hay
ing received no benefit from the treatment pre
scribed, be took his discharge, and was brought by
his friends, in a condition bordering on delirium,
to consult Dr. Carnahan. The medicines cond.
dered of most repute in Oases of neuralgia having
been exhausted, and the nerve having been divi
ded without permanent benefit, Dr. Carnahan de
termined to aimed a Isiah of the trunk of the
infra.orbital nerve. The patient could at this
time neither rest, sleep, eat, drink, nor talk,
without the occurrence of paroxysms of the most
violent character, so much no that he would
threaten self-destruction. This operation by exci
sion afforded more relief than the previous ones by
division or incision of the nerve. The relief
:cuing of short duration, the patient demanded
another operation. His desperate condition justi
fying a resort to desperate means, in February,
1858, Dr. Carnahan laid open his face, trepanned
the antrum maxillary, separated the trunk of the
second branch of the fifth pair from its con
nections as far as the posterior part of the antrum,
and emoted about an bosh of the nervous trunk.
The pain disappearing, the patient considered
that a cure bad been effected by this dan
gerous operation, and engaged in business in
Panama. In consequence of exposure the pain
again appeared with much severity in March, 1857,
and Kr. Forbes was obliged to relinquish his busi
ness and return to New York. He again applied
to Dr. Carnahan, and five more operations wore
performed by him, making fourteen in all.. The
fourteenth and last proved satisfactory. It con
sisted
of the emotion of the remaining stump of
the trunk, close to the foramen rotundnm, in im
mediate connection with the ganglion of Macke,
thus insulating that ganglion and its branches
from the encephalon.
Professor Ciamoolian believes that the phenomena
of this neuralgia can be explained with as much
precision as in any other disease which is well un
derstood. He kiss no doubt that in eases of the
most aggravated form, whatever may have been
the original exciting cause, the real seat of the
disease is In the trunk of the nerve, in front of the
Gasserian acme part of it, or in the
wbole,of it. I may add that this operation has
been the topic of laudatory comment by several of
our most distingnished physicians and surgeons,
and has added another to the Only striking per
formances that have placed Dr. Calneohan among
the foremost operators of the age.
The Governors of the Almehouee have submitted
to the Legislature their eleventh annual report. It
contains several fads of interest to those connected
with 'similar institutions in other cities. There
were admitted to the almshouse, in 1859, 3,731 per . -
sone ; to Bellevue Hospital, 9,009 persons. There
were interred in Potter's Field, during the year,
2,278 bodies. In the city prison there wore com
mitted, during the year, 42,007 prisoners, on vari
ous charges, ranging from murder down to drunk
anuses. 32,319 of this number were born in foreign
countries; 85,426 were of intemperate habits, and
19,000 wholly without eduoation. The expense of
maintaining the several institutions under direc
tion of the Governors was $592,885.07. The num
ber of persons without education who were Qom
mated to prison—nearly one-half—shows how fear.
fully true It is that ignorance is the mother of
crime.

admit them or to give up his wife. Armed with a
hatchet and knife he assaulted the Chief of Police
and stopped hie operations by a blow upon the head
with a hatchet. Officer Horton then drew a revoli

gave up his wife. Ryan paid no attention to him
and the officer fired and brought him down, but
whether or not the wound was mortal was not as

Wyoming, in Luterne county, as the place for holding
the next State Fair, and fixed upon the filith,26th,fiethr
and 17th of September as the time. Wyoming is situated
in the beautiful valley or that name, and is mix mile,
north of the thriving towp of Wilkesbarre, and .eight
miles south of Scranton.
There is, at Wyoming. one of the finest *onuses for
exercising horses that is tobe found anywhere, and the
grounds of the Lnzerne County Society number seventy
sores, surrounded by a fence eight feet high, and are
said to be admirably adapted for their purpose. The ob
ject in selecting a rural, district instead of a large city
for holding the exhibition, is to encourage the agricul
turists of the Commonwealth, and not merely to make
money out of the operation. Wyoming is in one of the
richest agricultural and thickly-settled regions in the
State, and is, besides, accessible on allsidos by:railroads.
The executive committee are to meet on the second
Tuesday of June, in Wilkesbarre, to arrange for the
Fair. PENN.
