ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ; with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors in {elation to the Treatment and Cure. of Sufferers from De bility of the`Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. • • " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhaea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. • • - " We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by.

(4.63). The net receipts on railways give an average interest on the whole capital invested of 34 per cent., but the preferential and loan charges reduce the interest on the ordinary capital to a fraction above 3 per cent (3.06).

[A.DVEUTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Pills and Ointment. — Sore throat, quinsey, ulcerated throat, and diptherite.— The sore throat, with more or less hoarseness, prevailing at this season of the year, has for twenty years been treated with the above remedies with a degree of success far sur passing that of any other mode of treatment. The cures have been so remarkable, speedy, and numerous, that it was predicted the new disease, diptherite, consisting of small ash-coloured ulcers in the interior of the throat, attended by fever often fatal, might be arrested by the same means, and such has been the case. This disease, in its first stage, seems even more amenable to Hollowa y 's Ointment and Pills than the simpler forms of inflammatory sore throat. 2.11 E _NAVY Yesterday the Lords Commissioners of the Ad miralty paid their first official visit to Portsmouth Dockyard, for the purpose of making the customary annual inspection of that arsenal. The members of the Board comprised the Duke of Somerset, First Lord, Vice-Admiral the Hon. Sir R. S. Dundas, Rear-Admiral the Hon. F. T. Pelham, C. 8., Capt. Eden, Rear-Admiral Lord Clarence Paget, Secre tary, Capt. Moore, Private Secretary to the First Lord, Rear-Admiral Sir Baldwin Walker, K.C.8., Surveyor to the Navy, and Lieut.-Col. G. T. Greene, Director of the Admiralty Engineering Works. Their lordships arrived at the Dockyard at 2.30 p.m., and at once entered on their duties, visiting first the , Rear-Admiral Superintendent's office, where they remained for some time. From the Superintendent's office their lordships pro ceeded to make a tour of the yard, accom panied by Rear-Admiral Superintendent Hon. George Grey, Mr. Abethell, Master Shipwright. with his assistants, Mr. Tonkin, Master Atten dant, Commander Gardner, steam reserve, and other officials of the yard. Their lordships first visited the iron shed at the rear of the mahogany store, where they inspected the remnants of the iron and steel plates lately experimented upon from the Stork gunboat. They next visited the saw-pits, and proceeded round the steam basin and to the 'north corner of the yard to the building sheds, ping on board the Victoria, 131, screw, now nearly ready for lainching. They next visited the smiths' shop, whence, after staying a short time, their lordships proceeded, by the side of the slip from which the Bacchante was lately launched, to the mouth of the new dock now in the course of for mation, and intended for the new entrance to the steam basin. On the new caisson at the entrance of the dock their lordships were engaged for some time inspecting the progress of the works. The next visit was to the Pearl, 20, screw corvette, Capt. John Borlase, C. 8., which their lordships in spected both on the upper and lower decks. Cross ing the caisson at the mouth of the old ship basin, and taking a short view of the preparations being made for lengthening the Britannia Dock, their lordships next proceeded on boar' the Pitt coal depot, alongside the north jetty, and fitting out as a coal depot for the use of the fleet at Portland. The further inspection of the different establish ments at the Dockyard will be resumed this morn ing. Their lordships slept on board the Osborne last evening, where proper provision had been made for their accommodation. Mr. C. Richards, the con troller of the victualling and transport depart ments, had arrived at the Royal Clarence yard from London the previous evening. On the Admiralty flag being hoisted at the Dockyard gates on their lordship's arrival it received the customary salute of 19 guns from H.M.S. Victory. On Monday afternoon her Majesty's screw line of-battle ship Donegal, 101 guns, Captain W. F. Glanville, arrived in ;,he Mersey, from Plymouth, which port she left on Saturday afternoon. She is anchored in the Sloyne. The object of her visit, which will be only for a short time, is to obtain seamen. She is at present considerably short of her number, her complement when full being about 1,000. The Donegal is by far the noblest-looking vessel of war that we have yet had in the Mersey, being considerably larger than any of her predeces sors. She is one of the new class of line-of-battle ships, and is a perfectly new vessel, having only been launched towards the end of last year. Her engines are of great power (800 horse), and she steams very fast, being able to go from 10 to 12 knots per hour. By the kind permission of Capt. Glanville, the public will have an opportunity of going on board for the first time on Thursday next. The Harrier, 17, screw, was offieip.ily,inspeoted at Spithead yesterday by Flag Capt. Farquhar, itnd afterwards steamed into harbour for paying of The Himalaya, screw troopship, has completed coaling at Portsmouth for further service. Lieut. F. 11. Blair, R.N., accompanied by the 23 seamen who miraculously escaped the lot of their unfortunate companions on board her Majesty's 12- gun sloop Herc.n, capsized off the coast of Africa, and who have been berthed on board her Majesty's receiving-ship Fisgard since Sunday last,left Wool , wich yesterday morning, in pursuance of Admi ralty directions, and proceeded to Portsmouth to join the flagship Victory, where they will assist a second court of inquiry, ordered to be instituted with a view to elicit any additional evidence from Lieut. Blair (who is the senior surviving officer of the Heron) and his rescued companions. Lieut. Mail (then a mate) displayed great courage and presence of mind on the occasion, as wall as admi rable promptitude in obedience to orders, in cutting lashings of booms to form a raft, clearing away boats, &e., and remained by the ship when all hopes of Laying her were lost; and by his skill and abi lity he succeeded in saving a portion of the ship's crew. They were fortunately observed by a distant sail, and were eventually picked up and received on board ship. The crew of the Alarm, 26, Capt. Douglas Curry, from the Pacific, were inspected in Plymouth Sound yesterday. On Tuesday she will go up Ilamoaze to be paid off. The invalids she brought home were chiefly from the Amethyst and Ganges. The paddlewheel steam-sloop Gorgon, 6, Com mander Bedford C. T. Pim, is coaling at Plymouth, whence she sails for the West India and North American station. The screw steam-sloop Pioneer, 6, Commander May, is coaling in Plymouth, preparatory to sailing for the coast of Africa. She touches at Ascension. It was erroneously stated on Monday last that the poor man Hales, a stoker employed in her Ma jesty's dockyard at Woolwich, who met with an accident on Friday on board the new frigate Ariadne had died immediately on his admission to the infir mary. His friends desire it may be stated that he is in a fair way of recovery. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—J. Bright, assist.-paymaster to the Donegal; James T. Syme, secretary's clerk to the Queen Charlotte ; and C. Aylen, clerk to the Mars. THE ARMY. The attention of the military authorities having been directed to the danger likely to arise to the ' public from the rifle firing of the troops at Chatham garrison in consequence of the rifle range near St. Mary's Creek being of late much frequented by the t public, inuin g arrangementstheuseofquestion prog res s a s f o a r p d r i a s c e t o i n s the spot are in n ing ground for the troops. With this view Major- General Hay, the Inspector-General of Musketry, and some of the officers connected with the staff at Chatham have made a survey of the district sur rounding that garrison in order to ascertain what spots in the immediate locality are adapted for the site of a practising ground for the troops under in struction in firing with the rifle at long ranges. After making a careful inspection of the spots con sidered most eligible for that purpose, a large tract of marsh land directly opposite Chatham dockyard has been selected as being in every respect the best adapted for the purposes required. This site is of considerable extent, and will admit of the troops being instructed at any extent of range, while its situation, being on the opposite side of the Med way, almost entirely precludes the possibility of any danger arising to the public, as it is but little frequented. The ground will be fitted up with huts and other convenient buildings for the accom modation of the officers and men who will be sta tioned there while learning rifle firing. The whole of the drill, w ith th e excep ti on o f th e firing at long range, will be taught the troops in barracks, the men being only quartered in the huts on the marshes for a few weeks while firing. -- - _ Yesterday morning intelligence was received at L WS PAPE ft" nvr " 1 :3= thoc-1(eal Letters of the Chath -1- ani.4l447;iltoyal Marine nt Infantry that_a num ettotpieh _oc-1 longi, the .3d West York Militia -- egisrint Light.infhttry had volunteered for tEe corps Of Royal Marines, and were waiting to be forwarded to head-quaff ters. On xeceipt of the information Dr. W. Fasken, one of the'rnedical offief-rUattached to the division, was ordered to proceed to Pontefract for the purpose of making a medical inspection of the volunteers, in order that none but men who are in every respect quali4ed for the Royal Marine ser vice may be forwarded .to head-quarter.' The TO- , lunteers selected arc to be sent t) Chatham in charge of Capt, Ellis, who is superintending the recruiting at Pontefract. In consequence of the number of recruits and volunteers who have re cently joined, the Chatham division of Royal Ma rines is nearly 900 strong, and is several men above its complement. The 27th company of the Royal Engineers now employed in the erection of the building at Wool wich for the manufacture of the Armstrong cannon have nearly completed that factory, the men being employed every evening until dark in order to hasten forward the work. During the time the Royal Engineers have been employed at Woolwich they have given the greatest satisfaction, and no complaints whatever have been made of any mis conduct on the part of the men. In consideration of the energy displayed by the Engineers each man receives 2s. 6d. per day working pay. As soon as they have completed the building, the 27th com pany will proceed to the Mauritius to augment the Royal Engineers at that station. The head-quarters of the 16th Lancers are to move from Piershill Barracks (Edinburgh) early next month, and are to proceed to Leeds, where the squadron of the regiment lately stationed at Hamil ton has already arrived. The 16th are to be re placed at Piershill by the head-quarters of the 13th Light Dragoons from Ireland, a squadron of which regiment has already arfived at Hainiltitme. The 78th Highlanders, from India, are daily ex pected at Fort George, where the depot has already been sent to await the arrival of the regiment. THE BALLOT. The question of the ballot is not only one of the profoundest, but also one of the most complicated ever invented to tax the ingenuity of man. We are not surprised that they who once take it up, like Mr. Henry Berkeley, thenceforth do little else, for it is-quite enough to occupy one man's allotted por tion of time, opportunity, and intellect. Indeed, it requires the exclusive devotion of a society, and a nekv league may worthily, if not profitably, employ ten years in attaining to the first principles of the question. This is evidently Mr. Cobden's opinion, and the fruit of his transatlantic - observations, when he recommends the Rochdale Reformers to begin with the ballot. The question " What is the ballot ?" may appear fundamental and readily an swered. But even on this preliminary question the great apostle of the ballot staggers us with a dictum which we should have thought utter heresy. He does not consider it essential to the " exist ence" of the ballot, but only a question of" mode," whether•it be secret or open. The Americans he admits to have the ballot, and to have it quite suf fici( ntly to be regarded as a precedent for our imi tation, though everybody there knows how every body votes. Not t nay does this totally alter the case between us and Mr. H. Berkeley, but it puts an end to the controversy. ' If the voting is to be open, we really do not care a straw how the votes are given. On this view of the case vote by ballot was a prominent part of Lord Derby's Reform Bill, for a letter by post is a ballot, and the letter-box receives a new sanctity as the ballot-box. But, as we always supposed, the dispute regarded only the secrecy of the procesg. The convenience of voting by papers is an affair of minor importance, and one to which we have not given a serious consideration. Mr. Dana has stated the summary of American experience so clearly, succinctly, and forcibly that we cannot do Otherwise than quote his very words : " 1. The ballot (secret or open) is promotive of quiet •at polls, and under our system of general suf frage, and of the multiplicity of officers to be voted for at the same time, is almost a necessity, on the grounds of convenience. " 2. It is found in practice that the ballot can be sufficiently guarded against fraud, but in securing this result we have deprived it of the element of secrecy. " 3. The attempt to introduce a mode of ballot which shall be at once secret, and secure against i fraud, and reasonably convenient,-,has so far failed ! with us. " 4. What may be the present opinion of the majority as to the principle of the secret ballot is matter of conjecture. A large and influential pro portion oppose it on principle, and what with this difference of opinion on the principle, and what with the difficulties in details, the secret ballot has been abandoned and the open ballot fallen back upon, as affording as much protection to the voter as in the opinion of some is desirable, and of others is prac ticable." Had this appeared in our columns as an expres sion of our own views, we should have expected a vigorous onslaught from our old and frequent cor respondent, most probably with a reference to the States, and some gentle remarks on our own profound ignorance and utter incapacity. So we could scarcely draw breath when we read, in Mr. 11. Berkeley's own handwriting, that America has the ballot quite enough for all practical purposes. As a matter of fancy, indeed, just as a man may like a horse of one colour rather than another, but may still be fond of horses just as another man is fond of horses, Mr. Berkeley himself prefers the secret ballot. There are people who like night, travelling, or who always dine by candlelight, or who like wax better than oil, or a shade over their lamps, or bronze better than marble, and in the same way, simply as an affair of taste, which does not admit of discussion, Mr. Berkeley prefers to have his ballot secret. Well, as a matter of taste we crefer ours open. On the whole, we like a wide landscape better than a bare view, though the latter has its charms. In crossing the Channel, with 150 passengers on board, we should prefer remaining on deck to sleeping below. We like a Hansom cab better than a four-wheeler: and would rather re side in Grosvenor-square than where we could shake hands with our opposite neighbour. T hese are all matters of taste, and there are ten thousand more, if it were worth while to enumerate them. .. Aceord in to Mr. 11. Berkeley , the secret ballot is one of them. The ballot is the thing. Secret or open is a matter of no political importance. Can't we com promise the dispute, and so liberate Mr. H. Berkeley for other questions of a more substantial character ? There used to be a question between buttoning up your coat and leaving it open. We can remember a time when to be buttoned up to the throat out o f doors had a smack of patriotism , and a man who wished to be a Brutus or a Cineinnatus would show no waistcoat or linen. Our young men button still, but just with one button, and no more. Well, let us have a ballot with one button, just to keep things tidy and straight, but conceal nothing. Will that satisfy Mr. H. Berkeley ? It will make a closer fit by a good deal than the American ballot, which has not even a button or a button-hole, `'Vest.-taste but flaps about and shows everything. If this will do, we are agreed; and the details of the one button_ we leave to our constitutional tailors. Mr. H. tßerkeley great can Gothic then question, o h n i , s oindustry greatand interesting,itthis e minster Bell question, or the great Cl oc k quest i on' or the great Clock-hands questi on , or start some new lt v ery giasmsecaorfcelhyiscoonwsnis,tet with h is vl a b s i u ng tw a a n r; ranted not to over-excite the nerve s of thepublic.. friendly admission, that no sooner has Mr. Berkeley made it th an o ff he goes toAustr . a.l'la. H. " Why are our flourishing Australian g ' colonieso carefully ignored i n t h e columns of the Tone's ?" " Why should the perfect unanimity of all clauses which exists in Australia as to the beneficial re sults of the a d opt i on o f t h e b a ll ot b e so s t u di ous ly avoided ?" "In an Australian election," continues Mr. H. Berkeley, "personation is just as easy of detection as at an election in England." "In A us tralia the power of detection," &c. After riding off on this new hobby, Mr. H. Berkeley concludes, taking leave of Australia and his readers together i in a sentence which reads rather as f the Austra lian ballot was very like the American, wad one that we should no more object to than we s'nould to the particular species of contrivance by lo'hich a bellhanger or a locksmith i mi . ght please t C, do his work, so long as he did it. "If t, pleased the Legislature to make such a law,. and to turn their attention and abilities to i,IF s comple tion, we may reasonably expect a more •pi.v feet and co mplete statute than that which has p re , vc d suc h a blessing to Australia." So the rneas, ,ire which has not only proved sufficient fo-, Au stralia, but elicited Mr. IL Berkeley's ecstatic admiration, is not perfect—not complete—ela n b e improved upon, and perfected, and -complvicil by the Bri tish Legislature, if it will - co nee of rate on the subject its attention and its eon, 'yctive wisdom. What can this all mean ? Does it mean that the Australian ballot is as open as the A merican P We may be excused if we wa it f or an e nswer ; but if the Australian ballot be really sec ret, I low can it possibly be improved upon ?—Tina 18. 2,122 3,123 13,135 5,074 14,182 30,866 14,693 72,248 7,259 2.996 6,420 16,183 1,574 2,225 98,390 98,077 51,152 4,410 79,687 29,378 21,790 8,529 18,789 7,259 3,596 7,000 22,348 56,618 22,010 16,966 31,495 27,091 50,133 59,039 1,907 24,513 2,937 4,286 6,053 5,748 5,876 1,478 6,282 8,518 1,961 63 65,047 46,067 15,630
