HAMBURG LETTER.

[FROM, OUR COIRESPONDENT}
Hamburg, 2nd September. The Board of Public Instruction have lately, -in accordance with their usual practice in the autumn, issued a list of lectures for the winter half year.. Its range is a wide one, comprising theology, haw, medicing, the solences, litera- tare, art, music, &o. The lecturers mostly local meu, clergymen of the various dauomipations, judges, aud barristers, leading physicians and surgeons, masters at the higher schools, &c. Besides thess, professors from several of the Cermati universities have been retained for short courses during their holidays; a member of the University of Geneva will lecture on French tomatave; whilst on Oxford M.A. will read a series of papers on" Seine Aspocta of English Creative Literature in the Nineteenth Contury." Most of these lectures Les open to the public free of charge; spososial ones, hosvever, on medicine and surgery includo a clinical and operativo couran at cas of the hospitais ou chemistry with practic work at the Govern- ment laboratories, on theological subjects, and others aro reserved for students and younger members of the different professions.
Those lectures, which follow in some respects the lines of the University Extension novombat with us, wewe started several yesrango, partly I believe with the intention of testing publié opinicu na to the dosimbility of founding su quicersity in Hanbury. This question by since been auch discasset in private wireles and in the Press, and a fooling is steadily gaining ground that the wealth of the city wakes it incumbent upon all to aid in increasing the means and opportunities for mental culture. Setting aside the question of cost, which is serious one, 39 million marks being the lower Figure considered necessary for the endowment of a cuiversity, it is urged against the ecete that Hamburg is not a suitable place for acade mical studies; it locks the peace and quiet deer to the scholar, and being a large and wealthy seaport town, throws too many distractions and temptations into the way of the young: moreover, living is very expensive. Other argu wouts are not wanting, such, for instance, an the proximity of the universities of Kiel, Rostock, and Güttingon, which would win to render a similar institution in Homburg super- finous, particularly as it is desirable as a rule that yong men on leaving school should not remain at home, but should contino their studies amidst new surroundings, in order, to enlarge their toes and widen their mental honzon. The opponents to the plan maintain that what is really required is a Commercial High School like those established in Cologne and Leipzig a fow years ago, which, in the short firno haydavo bonu in existence, have at- fained auch signal succes. TI, vest com merce and growing industries of Hamburg, they sort, would permit of theory being illustrated by pélice it ovary step. Commeres has now become a solence, aud the elementary edaction which wafileed for former generationa no longer answers the requirements of the age, where the kautfiest and nicest points of international law and political economy, Je, have frequently to be dealt with,
Strange to say, there are still somo few who hold that the ordinary term of apprenticeship in'a merchant's office, a fow lestrous in languages. and a certain number of years spent abroad, are of more practical value to a young man than the theoretical knowledge to be acquired from learned professors. They will not under- stand that practice and they must work hand in hand in order to ensure sucess. People in England have found this out to their
COBL!
The papers are önce taru triumphant over a record-breaking passage of our of the steamers of the Hamburg-Amurloan Liup, the Dowelsch- land, this vessel having performed the voyage from Cherbourg to New York in 5 days 11 win. and 54seu. One would suppose that such, feats. allongh costly in the way of fuel. &c., must pay in the cud by raising the repatation of the com pany, or they would not be continued fù. Tais line is always to the fore; they have lately established a regular monthly sorries between this port and Havana and Vera Crus, and our Minister in Cuba has in one of his reports expressed his deep regret that British ship owners shonk have again been forestalled. It must be adialtted that the spirit of enterpriss is not hacking here; one hours of some new venture nearly every day. It is now stated that the De Freitas lino are about to open a direct line to Tunis, and in fact their steamer the Byzans is already authorised to love for that port on October 29t

The corner and the gigantic deals and mani palations of the American operators have icd a renewed outcry against the fulares markets. I learn from the papers that both in the State and in Enropein countries a move- mont is being set on foot to obtain a prohibition of business in futures. But though the abuse of the system such as has been witnessed this year deserves the most severe condomination, I fail to see how the enormous crops of coltes, corn, and of her produce we have to deal with can be moved without the co-operation of a futures

I must not conclude withcut a few words ou
the principal political event of the fortnight, Mr. Chamberlain's resignation, preceded by Mr. Balteur's pamphlet, and followed by the publication of the correspondence that passed between the Colonial Secretary and his chief. The German japers discuss the subject in a very mint ter-bf-inch way,' and show little or no auimosity to the map thay so often reviled during the war in zouth Africa. The general consensus of opinion seems to be that by retiring Mr. Camberlain has saved the administration for i present, fut that he has only withdrawn now pear, wlacz munter when the time cases Opúfions differ as to whether he will eventually bo able to convert the British; people to his views, but few believe that if ho does it will be to the advantage of the Empire, as the Calunios have so far shown very little disposition to consult any but their own immediate interests in the nuntiar, and are too jealots of their privileges is self-governing communities to submit to any intyference on the part of the Imperial Government, which a closur union, such as Mr. Chamberlain aims at, would at times render inevitable

SIR, Captain Lambton, through no fault of his wa, was short of ammunition. Both be and Captain Belt wanted 1,000 rounde por gan sent up. The Admiral limited it to 300; he could get no more, for, owing to the awini bungle made by General White and his staff on the Monday, when C-ptain Lambton arrived, the door was shut, and no mere ammunition could be obtained. In Ladysmith the arrangements were robad that all information got to the Bores, Que sucrut only was preserv.d-tlast the big guns were short of amunnition. For 119 days Captain. Labtou bore the bruut of abuse for not ring his guns. more often than let it get to the Boors that he had no amusition. Captain Lambton's guns, as admitted by General White, saved Ladysmith, for they provented the Beers from bringing their gurs into a range at which they could have made good practies, The Boers know perfectly well that the British Army had no long-range guns; they know that they laid only 15-pounders, with a range of comé 4,000 yards, Lambton arrived with four long naval 12 pounders, which had a range almost equal to the Beer big guns, and two 47 gnos- which about equalled any gun that the Boers had in the field in range, and were of higher vdacity than the Loug Toms. the Boors found that Ganoral White hail thes guns they sery dons for, as they could not advanes their guns close enough to make good pruotice. They wme supulled to kop them at long range, which meanttho saving of Ladyemith. The two 47 guns of Captain Lambtos had a moral effect us regards thoir ring. At the long rangs that they were used at variation of atmosphera and temperaturs played an important part as regards the cordite. Many ranging slots are required to hit a gan at 7,500 yards. Captain Lambton had none to spare of this ammunition. He was obliged to husband what he had, and reserve it for the time when the Ladysmith army should come out and assist General Beller.

I in extremely difficult to cbtuia full details of what is going out in the villages, and the authorities have absolutely forbidden all Euro-CLUB" -peans to go outside the town, except to one or two pinces in the immediate neighbourhoosi where no devastation has been committed. I had anenged the other day to visit the villages of Enf and Bifuss, on the Florina rond, which had been burnt and some of their inhabitants slaughtered a few days aro. Permisshin wes granted to me in the evening, and revokasi the following mornings. The excuse given was that the authorities (wh had assured me that order was almost completely established) could not be responsible for my safety, as the bands were about and bad threatened to murder, aby journalists they could fud. The real reason is, of course, that the authorities themeolers do not wish aurone to see the treces of the work they have been carrying ce, and this supposed Bulgarian threat, which is officially notified to every correspondent who comes to Moistir, is in fact neither or nor less than
Turkish threat. The feeling ngainst the Press in Government quarters is very strong, and whenever a European visits Hilmi Pasha, the latter, always makes a point of complaining of the "aticcious, libels" against Turkey pub- lished by foreign newspapers, He dois not, however seem to appreciate the suggestion that if the statements semplined of are libels the best way of refuting them is to allow Europeans free access to the district sail to linyo been devastated.

regard for the proprieties is ludiorous. The public is at renccrued a little tiny Tit on to whether General Hunter was "within the „o'ourtesies " in Lis criticism of tho Naval shooting at Ladysmith; the point was it the truth? Could school-ghls have mide ketter practice, to stick to the metopher which roured the Hon. Hedworth Lambton's ire? The Amy represen tativo adheres to his opinion, but repreis that be couched it in Luguogo which everybody could understand... It riads us of the apology offered by the man who, when" chaiged with calling another oase, agreed to withdraw the adjective. The war in South Africa de stroyed inaty illusions that have clung to British was since and before the days of Nelson and Wellington. But amid "regrettable incidente," white flags, incompetency of officers, and all the rest of it, everybody believed that the Naval guns saved Ladysmith, sad that the "hurdy minat kash was beyond reproach. Sir Archibald Hunter is undoubtedly within bis rights in retaining his opinion of the shoot- ing of the Naval Brigade, but it would have been charitable to have kept it to bimself and not to Lavo shattered our remaining idol!
