FOREIGN MISCELLANY. GREAT BRITAIN. DistkbBB ik Irulanp.—“E. J.,” writing to a London contemporary, says he haß received from a truetwoiihy relation, living near the seaboard on the west of Connaught a letter, of which, the fol lowing is an extract: The state of starvation in the wept of Conn aught iB dreadful. They area harmless, inofftnßive people; most of them aro very small tenants, but who, in consequence of high rates, ex hausted land, three bad seasons, and no work, are dying of hunger almost by hundreds. They .have sold everything, even their beds, and many only ex ist upon charity, while many more are. afraid to make known their utter destitution, as eviction by Ihelandlotd would be the consequence. I know numbers of families who only eat, once a day, an ounce or two of Indian meal a piece, no milk, and perhapß a few limpets, if they have strength to crawl to the sea. Many, too, have to content them selves with boiled chiekweed. Many have died of want, and even a good potato harvest would benefit in a very moderate degree those who may live to see it, as they are compelled in many cases, by hunger, to dig up their potatoes when they aro only the size of marbles. The Weather and the-Crops in Ireland.— The Connaught Watchman says: The promise of a most abundant harvest is daily becoming more and more certain of a most satisfactory fulfilment. All, however, depehds on the potatoes, about which there can be no certainty, even under the most favorable circumstances, till they come to maturity. The Ne viagh Gfiuirdian state* that carrots and green cropß are most promising 5 there is no exception. Wheat, oats, and barley, are ’forward, and potatoes' are strong, healthy, and vigorous. • The Cork Examiner writes: For every description of crops, but especially the wheat crop, dry, sunny weather is now required; and, so far as we can form an opinion, there is every probability of our having a long duration of such weather. In no year have the crops looked better than they are at present. Potatoes, about which the most anxiety is felt, because an immense-breadth of them has been sown, promise to be better and more fruitful than they have been for several yearß Out of 684 inhabitants in the village of Ohale, in the Isle of Wight, the ages of forty-three of them averaged nearly eighty years each. , Five nonagenarians died in London last .weck; their ages *were 92, 93, 94, 96, and 99 years. All of them were women except the oldeßt, who wasa Chelsea pensioner. FRANCE. A Pin-Hunter.—la the Rue clu Bac, Paris, there died some days ago, about 40 years of age, the Baron de Sevres, a gentleman who had devoted nearly all his life to a most extraordinary pursuit, the excite ment of Which is said to have Bent him to an un timely grave. Amongst the property he left were found two large and heavy boxes, which by the heirs were supposed to contain o&Bh, but turned out to be filled with hundreds of thousands of all imaginable kinds of pins. Some years ago, when in Paris, a gentleman of noble appearance was pointed out to me, whose curious way of walking had attracted my attention. It was the Baron de Sevres. He was walking along one of the roads of the Bois de Boulogne, with his back bent, his eyes restlessly searching the ground, and now and then stooping down asif to pick up something. I then learned that for the last twenty years his regular habit had been to pass along the most frequented streets and places ofreßort,and to pick up any pins he dis covered on th e ground—a habit which, from a praise worthy carefulness, had gradually become the domi nating passion of his life. He has been noticed scru tinizing the floors in the pit of theatres, hardly looking for a moment at the stage; still more fre quently he was Been searching the lobbies leading to the boxes for the precious treasures. Concertrooms formed his principal attraction; but his richest har vest, he confessed, were the numerous places of wor ship, which, of course, were regularly attended by this curious specimen of human eccentricity. 'Thb Chiffonier and the Lorette.— A good looking and gaily-dressed female waß taking refresh ments last week in front of acafdon the Place St. Michel, in company with some young men; when a rag-collector, who was passing, made a sudden halt, and, after looking at her for a moment, attempted to knock off her bonnet with his hook. He was imme diately arrested by some young Btudents present and taken before the commissary of police to answer for the assault. In explanation of his conduct, he there stated that four years ago he had married a young woman, sixteen yearn of age, who soon after left him to lead a lile of debauchery, and all his efforts to find her proved vain, til! he saw her that after noon in company with some young men at the cafd above-mentioned. In striking at her bonnet he did not intend to hurt her, but merely to hook off that article of her attire and put it into his basket. On inquiry, this story was ascertained to be true, and • the rag-collector waß then set at liberty.— Galignani. Social Reforms in France.—The Pairie Bays'a decree of the Emperor, dated June 22, proclaims: entire freedom in the baking trade of Paris from the month of September next. No limit is to be placed to the number of bakers, and all absolute restrictions are to be replaced by control sufficient to insure fairness in weight of bread and excellence of quality. The Pairie also, in an article signed M. Limarac, asserts that the new Minister of Public Works will undertake the task of establishing a complete net work of internal navigation throughout the coun try, the use of which, as-of the roads, .iB to be based upon the principle of entire freedom of transit without tolls. Parisian Antiquities.— The front of the church cf St. Thomas Q 5 Aquin, one of the most fashionable ; ihough one of the oldest in the Faubourg St. Ger iDftiD, is about to be completely repaired. At the ' commencement of the seventeenth century Nicholas Ridolfi, general of the Dominicans, obtained per mission to found a third house of Jacobins, under the title of the “ Jacobins of the Order of St. Domi nick,”' in France. Letters patent of the month of July, 1882, confirmed this foundation, which was shortly afterwards enlarged by a new building on the vide of the Hue de V TJniversifce, and subsequently by several additions. The church of the reformed Jacobins was constructed under the direction of Pierre Bullet, one of the beat arohiteetß of that period. The repairs of the castle of Vincennes, Which were commenced two years since, are finished on the western part of the northern fagade to the left of the Devil’s tower. The old fortress now presents the appearance of a stronghold of the middle ages, in consequence of the sloping sides of the rampartß being concealed by parapets. The windows of the casements have likewise been made to appear like loopholes. The Emperor intends to give the fortress greater importance by establish ing a cannon'foundry and all its accessories in the small park. A Verviers paper describes a terribie scene which has jußt been witnessed in broad daylight in that town. A man, who had led, a very dissolute life, and whose wife had in consequence left him and was residing with three children at the house of her father, forcibly entered the dwelling, and, ascend ing to an upper story where his wire was, seized her and compelled her to jump with him from the win dow into the street. Thefihock of the fall was in creased in the woman’s case by the man’s falling upon her. • Believing her to be dead, the man ran. up to the room a second time, and again jumped into the street. The .woman, covered with blood, was removed to the house of-a neighbor, her life being despaired of. The man- was dreadfully, in jured. Bread from wheat of the present year’s growth has just been made by one of the principal bakers of Paris. The wheat was grown in the plains of Arles (Bouches du Rhone).- The SaJut Public of Ly ons congratulates the .fair sex on the pearl fishery year exceedingly productive, a million and a half of pearls having been found in nine millions of oyaters. According to accounts from Paris, a gross impo* sition has come to light. Vessels are despatched fiom Hambuig and Rotterdam with brandies of very inierior quality for this country, but,instead of proceeding at once to their destination, they go to some port in the department of the Charente, where the oaptainß take measures for obtaining papers which enable them to represent, in England, that the brandies are not German or Datch, but Cognac. The: attention of the French Customs has been drawn to the subject. SPAIN. A Bull* Fighter Gored to Death.— The Journal des Landes' states that a fatal accident occurred, three days back, during a bull fight at thef&eof Grenade in that department A man, named Palocque, en tered the arena to fight a bull well known for its and was instantly so fearfully gored in the lett side by the animal', that he died ten minuteß after. The spoits were at once terminated for the day, and a collection was made for the unfortunate .man’s widow. In consequence of this accident, the Mayor of St. Sever, in the same department, has given orders that in the bull fight whioh is to take place there this weekV wooden or metal tips shall be fixed on the horns ot all the bulls to prevent the possibility oi goring. Art ♦Treasures at Madrid.— The ■possession of forty pioturcs by Titian would of itself be suffi cient to establish the reputation of the Madrid Mu seum. “ The Presentation of Charles V. and his family to the Heavenly Father by the Virgin” shows bow strangely ceremony mingled even with the Em- - peror’s religion. There are. many pictures by the Eassanos. “The going into the Ark” is a delightful homely scene, where the Bturdy wives of Shem, Ham, and Japhet are depicted on household cares latent, and bending under the weight of feather bedslfasten edon their backs. Juan de Joanes has a “ Lord’s Supper,” considered bp many to be equal to Leon ardo da Vinci’B. In the golden halo surrounding each disciple’s head, the name is inscribed—a need lesß precaution as regards the loving features of St. John, and the griping Avaricious expression of Ju das. One wearies of the endless studies of Ribera from emaciated skeletons writhing in anguish; and looking more like St. Simeon Stylites than Chris tian saints and martyrs. In damp and gloomy cham bers are stowed away a perfect wealth of works of minor Dutch painters, all doomed to certaindestruc tion from' want of air and light. —Once a Week* ITALY. Duelling in Italy.—lt la high time that in Italy measures of social even more than of direct preventive police were taken to check the duelling mania with which Italian society is no w cursed. If the increase of the mania be owing , to the hot weather, ministers; deputies, and journalists, should all be muzzled, just as one ax the same Beason of the year muzzles dogs. Not a day passes without our hearing of< “affairs of! honor,” and the serious tragedy, alternates with the broadest farce. Thus, intelligence has been received this morning of the fatal termination of a duel between a Colonel Dezza and a Captain Fezzerri, in which the first has been killed, a'ml the second, it is believed, mor tally wounded. They had agreed to, fire six rounds Wiin pistols at ten paces, and, in the event of none of the Bix. rounds raking effect, to'fight it out with sabres; but the sabres were not - required. I met, not long ago, in society, a hectic, stooping lad, a young officer, just risen from a bed of sickness, on which, for months, he had been lying.proßtrate from the effects of a ball lodged in his body—in his . ele venth duel. He had broken his poor,mother’s heart, ’ her peace- of mind, never having apparently been considered by him as one of those requirements which his sense of “honor” called on him to satisfy. The ladies of Milan are, bo far aB I am aware, the first persons of Italy who have made a stand against this evil. Some of them lately signed and circulated a declaration to .the effect that duellists were to be excluded from theirsociety.— Turin Correspondent of the Morning Post. Stealing a Madonna.—A. daring robbery has been committed at Home. A woman, assisted by her daughter, carried off * picture of the Madonna from the. Church of San Salvatore delle Capelle, tempted by the valuable ornaments and ex voto offer ings, which, given from time to time by pious devo? tees, enriched the*pie|:ure,.as usual ih churches here! The sacristan was standing outside the church at the time, and is : supposed to have been an accom plice. However that may be, the daughter “peach ed.” The parties were arrested,,the sacred jewels discovered at various pawnshops, and the picture of the Madonna, bereft of ornaments, was found thrown into a kind of cellar belonging to the Sac chetti Palace. The Pope: has orders for a solemn procession of a penitentiary nature for the reinstalment of the picture in the Church of : San Salvatore. The Lombardia of Milan stateß that, on the 20th, the Archbishop’s library at Milan was searched by the police, whoaeized several, copies of a pamphlet entitled “Piedmontese Intrigues, Dies and Brigand age in Italy, by M. de Sancligrea, which 1 had been imported from Venice by certain Milanese priests. Ateocities OP:Neapolitan Brigands.—Alet ter from Naples Vof the 14th, in the Times, Bays: ♦‘Much has been said in and out ot England about the wholesale shooting of the poor Neapolitan pea santry, and much spurious sympathy has been ex - pressed by soi disant Liberals when describing the excesses of the Italian: soldier. Some of these orators and writers have, of course, been only anxious to serve a party, and are beneath no tice*, but to those who;in ignorance have spoken or written I would express a regret* that they did not stand with me last Monday morning in the Hospital of the Pellegrini, by the bedside of Matteo Ferrero.-There they would have'had offe' among many proofs of the brutal excesses committed by the enemies against whom the brave Italian soldier has been, and still is; fighting. This poor fellow was brought into the hospital on the 2d of . June, having been seized near Nola by the band of Orescehzio, which sb ; worthily represents the cause of the Bourbons in that district. - "Having-■ been on duty as a member.. of the National Guard, he was not likely tribe treated with much mercy; so they strung himup to; the: branch of a tree, cut off both ears and .his more, and; dug out both his eyes with the point’of a stiletto.

The GiamaJe di Roma publishes a decree issued by the Holy Universal Inquisition of Rome, sum moning a prießt named Pietro Mongino, of Ogebbio, to recant within two months, certain heresies, ex pounded by him in a book, published at Intra, in. 1862, under the title of the “ The Christian Proce dure of the present Roman Inquisitionafter the expiration of which delay the said IVlongino is to be excommunicated and deprived of his benefices. 4'***•• BELGIUM.

A general Exhibition of the --Fine Arts is to open' l at Brussels on the Ist of August, and to close on the 30th September. The works pf living artists of all nations will be admitted. SWITZERLAND. A. Grotto at Uhamounix. —A letter from Cha mounix stares that, in the early part of the present year, the municipality of that place conceded to one of the guides the right of excavating ah artificial grottojn the lower portion of the Glacier des Bois, near the source of the Aveyron. The works were begun: in April, and a gallery of twenty-five metres in length, terminating in a rotundo, has already been executed. This new ice-palace has a fairy-like aspect, as the walls and columns, under the action of the light, present a great variety of colors, far surpassing in effect the finest grottoes ever made for opera nymphs and naiads. A restaurant has been established near the entrance of the grotto, which will undoubtedly be vißited by most of the tourists who go to Ohamounix. The price of admission to the grotto has been fixed at 500. ; The Swiss Federal Government has accorded to merchandise of British origin the same tariff privi leges as those granted to Belgium under the recent commercial treaty. GERMANY. The great annual wool fairs of Breslau and Leip sic, held a few days since, were well attended with buyers. Contrary to the general expectation, wool, which in the preceding month was little sought for, waß suddenly demanded, and prices rose above those of last year. More than 3,600,000 kilogrammes were sold at the fair of Breßlau alone, at an advance of 7f the quintal on the prices of last year. TheEaglish, French, and Belgian buyers were the most nume rous. . .- V v - A “Spring” Procession. —At Eohernach, a town-of 4,000 inhabitants, in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, a singular religious ceremony takes place on Whit Tuesday. It consists of a mass and sermon celebrated in the open air on the bankß of.tlie Lauer, at a short distance from the town, and is called the “Spring Procession,” from the persons who take part in it starting in a body, and performing the distance between the town and the river by taking in unison three steps forward and then Bpringing back one, the movement being regu lated by instrumental music and singing. The pre sent year more than 12,000 persons took part in the procession, and about B,ooo' accompanied it. The ceremony is said to date from the -eighth'century, and iB believed to have been instituted to turn away some public calamity. Education in Germany.—The fourteenth con gress of the schoolmasters of Germany has just been held at Mannheim, the sittings having lasted three days. Among the questions discussed were the best methods of developing memory in children;'the means of awakening in them a love of country ; the advantages resulting from a larger share being given to gymnastic exercises in education ; the study of music, especially of national songs; the necessity of teaching children, with the greatest care, the history of their country, and especially the great deeds and victories of the German people, &c. The second sitting of the congress received a visit from the Grand Duke of Baden, who uttered a few words of welcome to the assembly, and who was received with much enthusiasm. POLAND. The Polish Ladies.—A long stay in Poland has a most depressing effect on the spirits. The univer sal mourning worn by the women haunts you even in your sleep; and you feel that “blaok” is, after all, the true ghost color. Wherever you go. you find the same poor helpless creatures herding together in Jhe churches; and even there not always free from the brutality of the Russian soldiery. Under the pretence of searching for arms, the sanctity of the house of God has repeatedly been violated, and sen tries stationed at the door not unfrequently subject ladies toannoyance, if not insult, in going in. and out. It is the attitude of the women which annoys the Russians still more than that of the men. There is no sacrifice to which they will not readily submit, and their spirit is indomitable. From the Princess Sapicha to the petty tradesman’s wife, they devote themselves heart and soul to the cause, slaving night and day at making clothes, conveying arms and am munition to the insurgent camp, remaining all night 'tinder prison walls, for the chance of rescuing cap tives, and performing other heroic acts. Combined with the power of self-sacrifice, Polish ladies possess a most lively wit, which is often more than a match for their enemies.— Letter f rom Lemberg* - TURKEY. * Mendicancy in Constantinople.— The Porte has under consideration a measure for. the suppres sion of mendicancy, in the capital. A sanaimoktehi (workhouse) is to be opened for able-bodied poor; whilst it is intended to arrange for the relief of the infirm and those who cannot work, out of the funds of the mosqueß in their respective districts. Begging in the streets will be strictly prohibited. The able bodied paupers will be drafted from the workhouse into the corps of army artificers. It is said that the large konak of Riza Pacha, at Stamboul, will be the building selected for thiß industrial refuge. The Christian subjects of the Sultan will be invited to aid in carrying out this important reform. Sagacity Extraordinary.— The Madras Exa miner of the 16th of May is responsible for the fol lowing story: “Amelephant was sent to Nagcrcoil for the purpose of piling timber by the Dewan, who requested the wife of a missionary residing there to be good enough to see the animal fed, and thus pre vent its keeper from abstracting its food. It was therefore brought to the house for this purpose, and at first all went on correctly; but after a time it was suspected that the amount of rice was getting smaller and smaller 5 so one day the keeper was re monstrated with, and, of course, protested against the imputation of-having taken it; adding, in true native phraseology, 1 Madam, do you think I could rob my child'?’ The elephant looked on most saga-. cioualy, ‘and at this stage of the proceedings quietly threw his trunk around his ■ keeper, and .untied his bulky waist-cloth, when the missing rice fell to the ground.” A Christian Bishot in a Buddhist Temple.— The Bishop of Colomko, with the archdeacon, lately visited the Malwatta Wihara, one of'the principal Buddhist temples in Kandy. Some twenty priests assembled, and to them lie explained the truths of Christianity in their own temple. A local jour nalist says: “He stated it was his wish that they should still be the instructors of the people, but by the new'way of the Gospel of Christ. It was a gratifying sight to see the Christian biahopmakiag confession of his faith in a Buddhist banna-room, with the yellow-robed priests for his auditors, ear nestly calling on them to lay aside their errors, and to join with him in a crusade for the only religion which is from God—against their own and all mere human systems. Hiß lordship concluded-’•with 'a prayer.” : - '.y-' • ' ;• . : Fashions for July* Ab the season advances, doubt, which has hitherto reigned with'reference to la mode, has given place to certainty, and we can now Bpeak with confidence of the various styles, both in material and make. The elegance consists more than everin the uniformity of toilettes. Robe,: bonnet, parasol, and even boots, miißt be of the same color. _ j ' "White alpacas and light-colored mohairs are very fashionable. The fobe Mexiealae, a kind of satin gauzy material : the golden-brown-taffetas, stripped with black; ana the camails are also much in de mand. Scotch plaids of two shades are made in all the hew materials. Muslins, organdies, and all the light materials are only waiting the advent of set tled weather, to appear in all their beautiful and graceful designs.- Foulards still continue in favor lor walking dresses; but the taffetas are more usu ally worn for vißiting. White poil de chovre, trimmed with colored ribbons, formß a very pretty and fresh looking toilette. Summer dresses, in white muslin, printed muslin, or patterned' organdies, arc made with high, full bodies, br low bodieß cut square, with which must be worn a pelerine or a fichu Marie* Antoinette of the same material. : . The alpacas are reserved for morning dreas. The Mexicaine is trimmed with narrow ruches of black taffetas and guipures, and is suitable for walk ing dress. The taffetas of which wc have spoken, are not the foulards formerly seen, but a splendid material, as Btrong and durable ab the finest taffetas gros grain. Flounces are much worn. They are narrow, and placed in twos or threes,{never reaching higher than the knee. As it is still the fashion to . raise-the skirt, it is indispensable that the petticoat should Albo have a narrow flounce. Barege robes, in small designs, are trimmed with three narrow flounces, edged with ribbon. The moire antique is still worn on cold days. This robe is; made with five narrow; fluted frills, and a flounce of lace, with a deep fan-like train. ■ Lace is much employed as trimmings to dresses of taffetas, as well as upon shawlß and-mantles. - Roiondes, forming shawls in front, are trimmed with arabesques of braid and black chenille, and bordered with two deep flounces of lace, separated by ruches of piflked taffetas, put on with a narrow band of passementerie, worked with jet beads. Many muslin dresses with printed patterns have the skirts made plain. Some are spotted with light blue or pink dots, and bands of the same color in zigzags at the bottom, imitating ribbon or guipure. This style of muslin is quite hew. And only made in the best qualities. Doubtless this light and elegant design will remain in fashion all this season. Those Bpoticd with azaleaß, with a wreath mounting in palma, have a charming appearance. We also see foulards with groups of azaleas and gray foliage at equal distances. On turning to the subject of bonnets" we are in formed that their forms have completely changed since last summer. They arc generally very small, but truly graceful. The models vary in trimming. Feathers are much worn. The natural feathers, placed in bunches, are in good taste and suit any toilettes. Hats may be chosen according to taste, but espe cial regard should be paid to what is becoming to the wearer. There is the Incroyable, the Frondeur; and the Moissonneur. The first is exceedingly ele gant—composed of Italian straw. The front has a double coque of maroon velvet, and two feathers, one the same shade as the velvet, the other white, placed rather high on the crown. The second is very stylish; made of black straw, with a high and pointed crown; broad edges, turned up on one side only. The edge is lined with red velvet, and in front, and rather on the fiat side of the edge, are four large roses encircled in' black lace. We advise brunettes to adopt this style. The moissonneur is rather lesß stylish, but iB very graceful and young. The crown is rather lower, and The edges are fiat. A scarf of lace or fringed silk tied behind. The frontjis trimmedjwith a bouquet of flowers or a small bird.. Hound hats are younger and more fanciful than the bonnet. . The postillion hat is intended for the country. Its form is a slight modification of the man’s hat.. The prettiest is of.gray straw, edged with velvet to match,‘with, a bow of: the same fastening; a red feather in front, and a long gray one turning r.ound the crown, and slightly raised at the edge. Caps are generally made of the resille form, with soft crowns. Flowers and ribbons are employed as ornaments for the-hair. . . Canezous and-pelerines of embroidered muslin, and waistcoats of white quilting or embroidered silk in bright colors, with Vcnetieu orßernoise bands, are much in demand. TJndersleeves, with deep cuffs, wider at the top than at the bottom, are quite the fashion, as are also the plain or quilting-collars, trimmed with Valen ciennes lace for half toilettes.
