II.P. • • • Sias—Having already addressed you on the local and Kriteria causes of the prevalence of infectious fevers. 1 . avail myself of your indulgence in tres passing again upon your valuable time, by a few remarks on the best mode to he adopted for pre venting their progress. The ..great fatality, the rapid arid extensive progress, which marked pesti lential fevers in former times. appear to have arisen from the want of that knowledge ;of the nature of contagion, and of the !awe which it *observes in its propagation, which we at tiriX day possess. The great mortality of the Athenian pestilence is pro verbial. The dire destruction committed by the pestis of Livy, so fatal on many occasions to Rome the dreadful ravages to which the world was de voted by the plague, so learnedly described by Procopius, and re concisely, bat aptly, by Evagrius, commencing' in the reign of Justinian. and continuing for 52 years, are well known. to those who have turned over the pages of historical records. The coincidence is not a little retnarf:its bit, that this long period was one of great general distress ; Italy was constantly harassed by the Goths and Vandals, and the Persians were sorely press jug the empire in the East. At periods more near our own times, the impression made on the reader by the perusal of the deaths caused by pestilential diseases generally in Europe, and in our own coun try, down to the great fire of 1666, is nut easily obliterated from the mind. The same febrile de struction is, possibrts crquis, advancing to our own thresholds. and threatens to enter the pemetralia 4.1 all our domestic habitations :—to be wate►ing and circumscribed in the means necessary for the exten sive application of remedies to so gigantic an evil, may prose fatal to the best hopes of the country. But, Sir, it is one thing to diminish the malignancy and check the p►ogress of pestilence, and another to annihilate the very seeds, the semimis incutembsela aullugiosiorthich regenerate, flonriA, mind again para lyze the manly strength of the Empire. The subject, therefore, naturally divides itself into two branches, viz. the removal of the local and the annihilation of the general caw's, as far as the condition of the country will admit of it. You will recollect. Sir, these local causes were enumerated in my former Letter—their removal and prevention of recurrence will be fully accomplished by separation—cleauli riess—and ventilation. Neither time nor space is allowed me for elitism ink upon these means. I will briefly observe, that separation is essentially useful, not only by a re (novel to a more airy situation, but by the preven tion of the frequent injudicious communication of friends, by which the contagion is kept up—cleen. !Mete removes that putrefactive filth which conti mica to contaminate the air—acid ventilation dilutes the contagious air of the apartments, se that it be comes less noxious, or not at all hurtful to persons obliged to breathe it. These three great and effi cient sheens, religiously attended to, will render uunecessary. m by Ear the majority of instances. the process of lumigation; and without them. this pro cess wilt have as little avail as any superstitious rites which were ever, performed to exorcise the demons of contagion. I must add a few worth, more on ventilAtion, or the free admission of the uncontami nated winds of heaven. The most deadly poison, Sir, may be taken with impunity, when largely di luted; and in a given quantity, wlsen not diluted, with only temporary, but perhaps great inconve• Metier. So it is with contegiouit miasma, the free admissiort of fresh air so dilutes the infections poi son, us that it ;nay be breathed with perfect impu nity by persons ut a certain distance from the in. felled subject : but what quantity or dose of this poison is necessary to produce the fever, is it matter of curious research, and depends upon a variety of circumstances which cannot he entered upon here. It has heed aseertahted, however, with some degree of precision, that contagion is not heirtfal at a cer tain short distance from the diseased person, and Mat physicians, clergymen, and others, upon whom other concurrent causes ore not operating, may with safety perform their dirties to the sick, by keeping Without this contagions sphere. A separate ward, therefore, in any hospital airily situated, may with perfect safety be apprepriatedfor the reception bf cases of infections fevers ; for the coning* loses its con centrated malignancy and infecting quality when it proceeds to a certain distance from its source, by being largely diluted with pure and wholesome air*. I iiiusCniiw, Sir, advert, with unquiet feelings. to the more general causes—unquiet, on account of the many difficulties which oppose their ready re moval. I allude to the helpless condition of the unemployed population of the country creating those circumstances by which the malignancy of the local causes is so powerfully increased. These separately existing, will always produce fevers of a troublesome kind ; but alien they concur with the former, their force is coot' d I have just received the Report of the House of Commons on the Contag' Fevers of Ireland, ordered to he printed on the Bth instant. It is some satisfaction, although a lamentable circumstance. to learn, that I was correct in the position I bad laid down, that, to the consequeticeis of the unemployed condition of the people the origin of the existing epidemic is very much owing. " It is quite evident." says the Report from Ireland to the House, " that fever will prevail to a greater or less degree while these pre. disposing csu.es continue to operate so extensively. and that we must look beyond medical judgment • about under every anxiety of mind. sinking under cheerless fatigue, and exposed to inch. went weather, without sufficient nourishment and clothing, in quest of employment. If, Sir, the sources of productive labour at home are already so occupied, that ingenuity cannot discover addi tional means fox. employment, they it would seem that the encouragement of coloslization, in coun tries where the situation and soil afford facilities for arrricultural and commercial enterprise, connected with the mother country, would bra judicious nom iiiduatrious population would not then be Inagt-6.resources of virtuous, o f vigo ro us, no d o f in dividual general advantage would he multiplied.

The Petition iet forth that the Petitioner succeeded Mr. Bromley, as trea surer, in the month of Nlarch, 181/, at which time he entered into recogilizaisces for discharg ing the trust of his office, and for paying the receipts of the Opera-house faithfully into the banking-house of Messrs.

The Master had semi dingle made his report, stating, that the Petitioner had performed the duties faithfully. I tlwrefore cannot see what optrsition can he made to this mo ti on ." Fria Honour the 'ICE-CHANCELLOR—" Is the motion opposed ?" Sir SAIAULL ROteil ELT, Counsel for the Defend. ant—" The only part of it which I object to is, the costs being tend out of the fund in Conn ; for ceitainly think that my client ought not to sutler for the Plaintiff's negligence." The N'ICK-CIIAISCet.I.OII—"I ton of opinion that the receiver or treasurer is eutiied to his costs out of the fund in Court." Mr. HART, Counsel for the Plaintiff—. , I stig.. rest the propriety of the order being made without prejudice to any future application; which fowled may be advised to make respecting who shall nib. mately pay the costs." The VlcK.Cictricat.Loß...." I think that would be the better way, Mr. Hart. The question is one of a very general nature, involVing the interests of partners, and I think this is not the most proper place for agitating such points." Sir Sistugt.

Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY—" I am of opinion that my Client must present a Petition ; Idu nut see what else he can do. Perhaps your Honour will not object to this motion standing over fur two nr three days ?" The Vice-Ctistscit.Lott—" Before I can come to the conclusion that the Plaintiff shall pay the costs, I must necessanly hear all the facto of the case from beginning to end." Sir Sositiet. RoutiLLY-4 , I can only say, Sir, it would be very hard to allow the costs to hall oit the Defendant, for I can assure you that lie had no share of the profit:, as they have all gone into the pocket of the Plaintiff, who was ordered to pay his purchase-money on a certain day, which lie was not able to do, or at least lie was not ready to do it ; therefore it is not right that the Defend .:sit shoed.' suffer for the negligence or disability of the Plaintiff." The A'ice-Cisaacett.oa--.‘ I think, on the wbole, there is a prima facie case against the Plaintiff, and that he ought to pay the coos. he us you properly observe, Sir Samuel, his de lay in completint the purchase ought not to be the cause of the Defendant's suffering; I olunk lie had better pay them at once. But probably the only thing I can do with safety is, to order the receiver to have his costs out of the fund in Court, re serving the question of who shall ultimately pay them, till a future occasion. Really this is a most litigated cause." Mr. lIART—" I cannot consent, as the Plaintiff's Counsel, that this order should he made." The Artce-Csiostest.t.oa—" I do not think, Mr. Hart, such a consent is at all called fur ; for the Plaintiff may, on a future occasion, spew what circumstances he thinks will justify Inns in calling on the Court to divide the expenses. As to your client, Mr. Solicitor-General, he is tieutrA in the cause, and his costs must be paid, and the question hereafter will be, who is to pay them ! Let them be paid its the first instance out of tild fund in Court, without prejudice." Mr. H•ltf.—."

Numerous workmen escape the pressure of the times, and better their conditions by constant employment there: nor is the source of their well-doing likely very suddenly to be stopped. Not • resident of importance is there at this time in any part of the Palace premises; but it is still understood that the Prince Regent intends honour ing the town with soother shit in July. His Royal Highness, it has been said, has expressed his wishes to the town, that the gas lights, generally. Should be allowed to sparkle forth their brilliance here; but whatever the advantages, or the reverse may be, that should follow the introduction of the gas to the place, in the event of the Bill now pending in the House of Commons being passed into a law, an improper use has certainly been made of his Royal Highness's name thereon ; for, we have it from un exceptionable authority, that his Royal Highness has declined expressing any decided opinion upon the subject, leaving it entirely to the inhabitants, either to favour or oppose it, as may appear most consistent with their own feelings and interests,— This circumstance certainly should be known, that no imputation of ingratitude should here after attach to where it has beets entirely unde served.

To inch • degree does the ignorance of those who have argued the necessity of this Bill, on the probability of great foreign remittances, appear to me to extend, that it seems to have escaped their observation that capital may be con veyed from one country to another in the shape of goods, as well as of bullion ; and that the former is the mode in which the great bulk of foreign remittances mast be made; for the moment the exchange becomes uufavourahle by the forced exportation of a small quantity of cola, it must gibe such encouragement to the exportation of commodity, and such diecouragemmit to the importation of them, that whilst it is impossible, eunsisteut with the interest of the merchant, to import commodities equivalent to the goods exported, it must he his interest to make every o y remittance io goods rather thin in coin. It is, in truth, folly to imagine, that the exportation of coin or Imllion, as a means of restoring the Weide of pay ments when deranged by a foreign loan, or asiy other source of necessary remittance, can be long persevered in, either ler this or any other country ; for, on the supposition that those who have engaged to make remittances will consult their own interests, the quantity of time be withdrawn from the circulation of a country to ef fect this object is small indeed, as must be obvious to those who reflect, that as soon as any portion of the gold or silver coin is exported, the value of that which rentals, must 'a creage, or, in other words, the value et all the commodities must diminish, which, of cuurse, will rearm to the con tractor for a foreign lman i state of thitsgs sisal residers the exportation of gouda a More advantageous divans of fulfil ling his engagements than the exportation of ruin or bullion. It is true, that the foreign market may be glutted with those gnash, at the prite at which tyre merchant can afford to sell them, and that bull may again became a source of less expensiSe remittance; but the moment • little more gold is exported, a further reduction of the price of commo dities must ensue, which calmed fail, once m o re, t o c rea t e an efficient demand for oar manufactures, and to render the exportation of gold the least profitable means of conveying capital abroad. Thus, therefore, before any country can be drained or its Kuhl by the necessity of remitting capital, in roue , quence of fbreign loans, there most be a proportional do. mend for, and exportation of, its commodities; and as gold and commodities must become alternately the past expen sire means of remittance, so it mound he exhausted of its coin, without supposing that it is possible that it should be exhausted of all the goods of its growth and produce.
