MAJOR'S IMPROVEMENTS in VETERINARY SCIENCE . " If progress is daily made in Medical Science by those whose duty it is to study the diseases to which tho human flesh is heir , it would seem that improvements in Veterinary art quite keep pace with it , as is manifest on a visit to the well-known Horse Infirmary of Mjt . Major , in Coclcspurstreet . Here incipient and chronic lameness is discovered and cured . with a facility truly astonishing , while tho efficacy of the remedies , and the quickness of their action , appear to have revolutionised the whole system of firing and blistering . Among tho moat recent proofs of-tho euro of spavins by Mr . Major , we may mention Cannobic , the winner of the Metropolitan , and second favourite for tho Derby , and who is now as sound as his friends and backors could desire . And by the advertisement of Mr . major ' s pamphlet in another column , wo perceive that other equally miraculous cures are set forth , whioh place him at the hoad of tho Veterinary arfc in London , "—Globe , May 10 , 1850 .

. ¦ ¦ ? MOKT BliANCL We expressed last "week our somewhat selfish regret at the temporary loss of Mr . Albert Smith , who is off on his usual Autumnal tour , and our pleasant anticipations of what he has in store for the ensuing Winter nights ; but a few extracts from his lively prorogation speech may not be inappropriate . He thus reviewed the history of his successes : — "I took the Egyptian Hall in February , 1852 ; and so little opinion had I , at that time , of my subject , or my own powers , that I only engaged the room for a few weeks , and of these nearly a month was spent in patting it in order ; for a succession of cheap exhibitions had left the building in a most disreputable condition . I gave my first entertainment on the 13 th of Marchj 1852—five years and a naif ago—and to-night is the 1744 th time I have had the honour of appearing before you —consecutively and in the same room . I believe that this success has been , in a great degree , owing to several reforms I introduced here , which the larger places of public amusement might follow with advantage . .... Those of my audience who care for figures may be interested in hearing that my rent here is nearly 600 / . a year ; that the working expenses of the entertainment are 75 ? . a week ; and that the cost of producing the yearly alterations for a new season has never been under 500 ? . ; indeed , i n 1854 , when the Oberl&nd and the Simplon were brought oat , and the Swiss decorations built in the room , I spent nearly 10 . 00 & . before a farthing came back again . I mention these facts against the absurd statements I have seen , both in the English and American papers , of the enormous fortune I have made here . Let me briefly Istate what are my intentions for the winter . I start the day after to-morrow to colect new materials ; and my route will be through what I may term the ' popular Switzerland "—by Zurich , the Rigi , Lucerne , and Grindelwald , to Ghamouni , and thence over the Great St . Bernard ( where my excellent old friends , the monks , have got a pup for me ) to Genoa . I shall then take ship for Naples j and I hope that in Pompeii , in the Blue Grotto at Capri , and in the Grotto del Cane , and on the summit Of the crater of Vesuvius ( which has been rather turbulent and unsettled lately ) , I may find something to- beguile the long . evenings of the ensuing winter . I only hope , after my visit , that everybody will not go scrambling . up Vesuvius as they did up Mont Blanc , until the subject is utterly vulgarized and spoilt . "

THEATRICAL AND MUSICAL NOTES . Pbbvioubi . y to his departure from England for America , Mr . Chablbs Mathe-ws made a final appearance on the night of Friday week at the Royal
AMPfiiXHBjUFBxr , Iiiverpool , when the house was crowded in every part . In his ferewell address , Mr . Mathewb said : — ** T made my first appearance in Liverpool more than fifty years ago . ( Oh , ok A Pardon me , I don ' t mean to say a public appearance , though doubtless I made myself heard , ( laughter . ' ) I happened to be born in Baanett-street , within a few doors of this theatre ; so that ,. in pride of birth , and i n the feeli ngs that still link me to you I am actually a Dickey Sam . ( Cheering . ') Ladies and gentlemen , —really , I have no&ing to say . ( Laughter . ) I think that , as we have over and over again laughed together for so many years , would not be right to try to make you cry at parting . I yet hope to make you laugh once more on my return . In all my troubles , and they have not been few , I have been accustomed to come for hope and sympath y to the public . About twenty years ago I made my first false step in life . I took Covent Garden Theatre , and the consequences have hung a millstone round my neck , which I never could get rid of since . My fair fame has been , perhaps , somewhat tarnished . ( No , no !) Oh , yes ; I know the existing opinion is that I am a thoughtless fellow , who is eternally getting i nto difficulties , then getting out of them , and then creating new onesi I assure you that this is an error . ( Cheers . ) It reminds me of the story of the nigger , who , when his master said to him—' What ! drunk again , you rascal ? ' —rreplied , 'No , no-, massa , not drunk again—same drunk—same drunk . ' ( Cheers and laughter . ) Well , so it is with me . " The 134 th meeting of the choirs of Worcester , Hereford , and Gloucester , cona « menced on Tuesday . The grand festival at the conclusion of the second season of the ill-starred Soekey Gardens commenced on Monday night , / under the sole direction of M . Jm / likn , and . was largely attended , —certain circumstances , which are related in another part of our this day ' s paper , exciting in the public a strong feeling of sympathy with the buoyant Frenchman . Grtsi , Albont , and Miss Poole , combined their attractions in the Music Hall , while in the gardens a vast number of out-door entertainments—^ including old English morris dances , performances on the ' double trapeze , ' a Spanish ballet on a stage erected for the purpose , balloon ascents , an open-air concert , and a display of fireworks , accompanied by a perilous ascent and descent of the tight-rope by Mademoiselle Patjwne "Violanh—afforded ceaseless amusement to the crowds of pleasure-seekers . The regular dramatic season at the Princess's having closed , Mr . Beale has opened the theatre for a series of Italian opera performances . Monday was the first night , when Verdi ' s Traviata was acted . Madame Gassier sustained Piccoi-omini's celebrated part with considerable effect ; and Mario was tender and impassioned as the hero . The elder Germont was performed by a new barytone , Sign or Dbasone . who was well received by the audience . Norvia and Rlgoletto have since been given . ¦

London , Friday Evening , August 28 , 1867 . TO T news from India , frightful iq Its details of past ) horrors , aud pregnant In anxiety for tho futuro , has made but little Impression on the Funds . It ) has become the ' rule wUU . the dally Journals to make light of the oocurroncoa now transacting In bur former Indian omplro , and of passing
over the supineness and mismanagement of the Downing and Leadenhall-street Boards . This , ere long , will be changed into a succession of abusive articles , as we find how deeply interested we all are , and how imperilled our whole commonwealth must be , by a continuance of the Indian calamities . . So , far ahead in 1858 and . il 869 , one may see loans and subsidies in perspective . To raise , and keep in India one hundred thousand men , to go through the usual official mismanagement and lose stores , and warlike equipments , and men , which , will surely come under our system , will cause enormous expenditure , and the expenses of _ Russian war will sink , into insignificance beside this latter trouble . If Delhi be not taken before Christmas , the war will cost nearer ten millions than five . Foreign funds vary but little . Turkish Six per Cent , are about 05 . French Railway lines are firm , no great amount of business doing . Grand Trunk of Canada and Great Western of Canada are more in demand . Eastern Counties and Dovers are firmly held ; in Berwicks , Great Northerns , Caledonians , and North Staffords there have been very good buyers .
