Domus et platens tixor,"—Hon. Thy house, and (in the cup of life, That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife. H A PPINESS 44 the gay to-morrow of the mind" is Insured by marriage ; " the strictest tie of perpetual Friewd ship," is a gift front Heaven, cementing pleasure with reason, by which, stye Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association with Celestial intelligence." Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature front those impurities which the free dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless instances which, while they excite the commiseration of the be holder, should also impress him with the fear of self-reproach. Luxurious habits will rffeminize the body—a residence in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the na tural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized stifferer more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such then, we ail.ireas out selves, offering hope, energy, muscular strength, l felicity ; nor will our advances appear questionable sanctioned as thy art by the multiplied proofs of 20 years successful experience. The easy cases of married life are sometimes disturbed by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath —for the female habit is often constitutionally weak—yet it can be iterengtbened. and deficient energy improved into functional power. In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxation of the generative economy, we pledge our ability to cure speedily,. and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling sinpyric from the position so presumptuously taken up, we deviate from general principles with less hesitation ; and confident in our own honourable integrity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the sofferitig community of either Sex (especially those entering into matrimouial life) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given for personal consultation; and letters from the country are immediately answered ; these must contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, which can be forvfarded to any part of the world, &meat: distant.

Letters from Havre state that the sea has destroyed a part of the northern jetty. Great ravages had been committed on the shore by . the winds, which were sti I blowing with great violence; the huh bad been almost All destroyed, and trees of great magnitude torn up.

The Coronation of the Emperor Nicholas was per• formed with all the pomp and ceremony which custom has established here, on Sunday last, the 3d inst. bet the 22d of August, of their stile. It took place, accord ing to usage, within the Kremlin, where, unfortunately, the space is too limited to admit of an adequate display, so that, in the procession, all the persons were huddler' 'together, and the effect was trifling and displeasing.— It was far inferior in splendour to the procession from Westminster Hall, for there was a want here of variety an.' magnificence in the dresses of the men, the r fly brilliant part being in the military uniform of the Gene rals and the Emperor's Aides•de Canis, whose rich em broidered coats, glittering with gold an 4 silver, con trasted oddly with the habit bourgeois, the plain blue or dingy grey, of the Mayors of towns, and chiefs of the different trades, .6 unwashed artificer•," who, with long beards, took their place in the procession, to which, by. old custom, they were entitled. B it, assuredly, by 'much the most striking part of the rhole affair, was the `presence of the. Archduke Constantine, the elder brother, 'who has renounced his birthright, and acted here as an attendant, bestowing, instead of receiving, homage. He walked on the right hand of the Emperor ; the other brother, the Archduke Michael, being on his left; both• of them being a few feet in advance of ti:e canopy, a very gorgeous affair, which was borne over the Ern perm s head by his Chamberlains. The Crown was elt;Tely composed of diamonds. Noire of the Ambassadors joined in the procession, but all of them were present in the Church, which is so small that it could not contain more than 400 or 300 persons. The Duke of Devonshire, who locked re. markably well in his diplomatic dress,w as accompanied by Lord Morpeth, Lord W. Russell, Mr. Grosvenor, Mr. Cavendish, Mr. Townshend, and Sir Alexander. Mallet. Several more E iglish were outside the Church as spectators; and, among others, there were pointed out to me Lord W. Montague, L-ird Stormont, and the Hon. Mr. Talbot. The day was exceedingly fine, and nothing whatever occurred to lessen, in the slightest degree, the general joy. In the evening a general illumination took place, and the towers and walls of the Kremlin were wholly covered with lamps, so that all their forms and angles were distinctly seen at an immen s e distance, and the prodi gious blaze of light which played around the domes and minarets, seemed to be a realization of the delight. tol imaginings—the visionary descriptions—of the tales in the Arabian Nights. OSTEND, w ZDNICSDAT, SaPTEDIIIER 20. -..1..-- DREADFUL EXPLOSION-FURTHER PARTICULARS You will no doubt have heard, ere this, of the terrible calamity which has befallen the town of O.tend, in con sequence of the Arsenal hiving blown up early in the morning of Tuesday last. It has been already ascer tained that thirty persons have lost their lives by this appalling explosion, and not less have heert mutilated and injured to a very serious degree. Report magni fies the number, in each case, but you must not trust even eye-witnesses in their attempt at estimating the mi.- sery and the mischief which have lighted on this devoted town. It is not in the power of language to depict the consternation and despair of the inhabitants when feel. ing the first shock of the explosion. They all left their homes—fled to the neighbouring fields—and abandoned their property and their friends. I had entered the town only the night before, when all was cheerfulness, ani mation, and peace; but, after the morning of Tuesday, every house was partially or altogether unroofed— locks, bolts, and bars, literally flew asunder—the win dow frames and the glass were scattered to the winds — the ceilings of the houses in and near the Quay, were as if strained from the joists-0e walls yawned from their perpendiculars, and the very foundations were shaken to their centre. Nor was this the case merely at the Quay; the whole line of street, on the road to Bruges, exhibited a still more melancholy spectacle, inasmuch as the houses present not only as desolate an appearance, but their owners were also involved is instantaneous ruin. Every friend to humanity must sympathise in their fate, and it is to be hoped, that the Government of the Netherlands will promptly step forward to the relief of so many unhappy sufferers. It would be impossible for me, in the spate of a hue. tied letter, to describe the state of feeling now prevailing here—tenor and despair, however, appear almost in every countenance. Travellers coming flom Brussels, on the road to Calais, hasten to survey the ruins of Os tend, until shrinking at the scene, they suddenly look aghast, and lamenting the desolation, proceed upon their better-fated course. The shock itself was tremendously awful ; it was not like that of a hundred pieces of bat tering artillery—it was not like the rough and angry growl of the wrathful thunder—it was that instant, in- _ tense, overwhelming noise, which one might fancy to accompany an earthquake, or to bode the Judgment day•it seemed to shake the links that bind man and nature together. The wreck of this once animated town presents one of the most deplorable pictures you can imagine; for, even up to this hour (Wednesday evening, five o'clock), scarcely an individual has courage to look upon it, and save the little which has been left them. Such a calamity will doubtle:.s be liable to colouring, and the quantum of suffering to great exaggeration ; but there can be no doubt that thirty fellow creatures have lost their lives, and that very many have incalci lably suffered both in their persons and their property. Rumour ascribes this event, first to a man having walked into the arsenal with nails in his shoes, and thereby ig niting the powder—then again, to a man being allowed to smoke a p;pe in the arsenal, and the fire being corn• municated in that manner—while there are others who Attribute it to some malicious in:tudiary ; but this I think highly improbable. EXTRACT OP A nurArs LETTER. A sensation of the most dreadful kind was expo- iienced at Ostend, on Tuesday morning last, by the ex. plosion of the new Magazine at that place, which con tained upwards of 1,400 barrels of powder. This dread ful circumstance took place at ten o'clock in the morn ing, when the greatest part of the people were about, and all were panic-struck who were not killed; the lat
