Address R. and L. PEunv and Co., 19, BPrners-street, Oxford-street, W. Attendance daion, ly, from 10 till 8 ; Sundays, 11 till 2, by a Consulting Surge Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (Regis tered under the New Medical Act). afterwards a Member of Congress, Speaker of the House of Representatives and Governor of Massa chusetts. At the outbreak of the civil war he was engaged in the managenent of a Western Railway, which position he relincuished to volunteer his ser vices as a soldier in support of the Union. He is a strong anti- slavery man but, unlike Generals Fre mont, Hunter, and others, has never allowed his sentiments on that quotion to interfere with his duties as an officer. Till late last night the city was kept in alarm by rumours, which no one eculd trace to any authority, that General M'Dow ell had been compelled to re treat—no one knew how or wherefore. This morn ing, however, there is certain intelligence that in stead of retreating he hat advanced eight miles from Fredericksburg on the read to Richmond, to carry out, it is to be supposed, the plan of co-operation with M'Clellan which lel to his reinforcement at the expense of General 3anks, and thus proluced the paroxysm of war fever that has convulsed the whole system. M'Cltllan makes no sign, but everybody has such confidence in his patient saga city and good fortune that all delays are excused, and he is cheerfully allowed his own time to do his own work, untroubled by any criticism or com plaint. No one seems to think that any calamity can befall him, except, perhaps, the Southern Generals at Richmond and the whole Southern people. It is not likely that many persons in England remember the name or existence of Governor Andrew of Massachusetts, though there was a time, in the midst of the excitement that arose out of the stupid act of Commodore Wilkes in seizing Messrs. Mason and Slidell on board of the Trent, when his name was known in England in connection with a very violent and foolish speech, in which he " en dorsed" that illegal proceeding, and did his little u tmost to stir up discord or war between Great Britain and the United States. The Governor has again made his appearance before the world, and again made himself ridiculous. In answer to the President's demand for additional troops, addressed to him in common with all the other Governors of the Northern and Western States, this egregious person took it upon himself to read Mr. Lincoln a lecture on the ethics of the war, and virtually to deny the right of the President to call upon Mas sachusetts for any more soldiers, unless he would " sustain General Hunter" and emancipate the negroes of the South. He said that the call upon Massachusetts was so " sudden and unexpected," that " he had not the materials for an intelligent reply," that the young men of the State " were pre-occupied with other views," but might be got together in " forty days," provided the Govern ment at Washington would send them arms and equipments ; and that they did not want to go to the South " unless they could fight with God and human nature on their side"—in other words, un less the Southern negroes were armed and set free to fight alongside .of them. From all this it was abundantly clear that Mr. Andrew is one of those who only care for the restoration of the American Union if it can be restored after his own fashion ; that he either does not understand that to make the war an abolition war would certainly pro long it for the 20 years during which President Davis declares he can Wage it inspite of defeat and discouragement, or that he considers the emancipa tion of the negroes in the South and the ruin of the Southern planters to be results worth the unspeak able miseries that such a war would entail, and not the least of them the loss of the liberties of white men, both of the North and the South ; and that, in short, he is as much of a Secessionist as Mr. Jefferson Davis himself, though he bases his argu ments on an opposite theory. The Boston papers have been warmly repudiating all participation in the Governor's opinions, and declare his statements to be a libel upon the people of their State. But the Qovernor, it appears, had some bowels of com passion after all. It was only in the day of pros perity that he thought he could snub his superior, and at the first reverse to the national arms he hastened to show himself merciful, and to let the question of emancipation drop for awhile, or as long as Washington was supposed to be in danger. On Sunday evening, in the first flush of excitement at learning by telegraph the defeat of General Banks, he issued a second proclamation, without a word on the slavery question or any of the irritating topics which he touched upon in his first, and called upon the men of Massachusetts " to oppose with fiery zeal and courage patriotism the progress of the foe"—" that wily and barbarous horde of traitors to the people, to the Government, to the cou or-Generalntry, and to liberty, who had routed j Banks and were marching upon W ashington." The Ma people, who were angry at the first proclamation, found time to laugh at the magniloquence of the second, and the young men of BOStOD, to the num ber of upwards of 3,000, assembled yesterday even ing on Boston-common, fully armed and equipped, to take the rail for Washington, thus stultifying the Governor's first proclamation, and teaching him—if he have a mind to be taught—that the Abolitionists, whom he represents, are but a small and unin fluential class. guns in heavy weather. Some 70 tons of bricks and mortar have been built into the bottom of the ship, to prevent the lodgment and consequent stag nation of bilge-water. The numerous valves which are inserted in the lower portions of the various sectionsof the Warrior arc necessarily shorter down ward than the divisions; or, in other words, the valves cannot conveniently be made to descend to the angles in the bottom of the ship. Now, the bilge and waste water which becomes stagnant is that which lodges in the bottom between the sec tions, where it remains undisturbed, and soon be- ' comes putrid. Here it is that the masonry hes been applied. All the leakage and waste- water will now be raised to one common level, and also to one common suction. Six additional Downton's pumps have been added to clear the leakage from the water-tight compartments, and sluice valves have been fitted to the various bulkheads fore and aft. By these arrangements it is expected that scarcely a gallon of water can hereafter accumulate in any part of the vessel, a very great desideratum in an iron ship of such immense strength, and, conse quently, complicated construction, as the Warrior. In connection with the engines and machinery, the only work of any importance executed since her stay at Devonport has been the fitting of two pairs of sliding doors to the water-tight bulkhead in the boiler-rooms ; they are put up in a very superior manner, and answer their purpose admirably, one man having suffi cient power to open or close them. The funnel casings have undergone extensive alterations to obtain improved ventilation in the boiler-rooms ; these casings have been fitted according to the designs of Mr. Trickett. During the run on Friday a marked improvement was discernible, and the arrangement is considered to be the most successful yet tried. The engines and machinery are in a most efficient state. It is expected that the Warrior will leave Plymouth shortly for Queenstown. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Lieut. W. C. J. Sullivan to the Ajax, additional, for service in the Coastguard; W. Pitt, chief engineer, and J. P. Lloyd and G. W. Robins, first-class assist.-engineers to the Sanspareil.

The corps were then formed up in quarter distanee column, and Col.

Two or three volleys were then fired, and about six o'clock the proceedings of a very interesting and very successful volunteer review concluded. SHAM FIGHT IN es us One of the most successful sham fights that have yet taken place was executed yesterday in Pan shanger Park, Herta, the seat of Earl Cowper. The noble earl, it seems, had offered the use of his grounds, and had challenged Viscount Ranelagh to meet the local corps with', any force that he could collect in the metropolis. The invitation was given, or at least accepted, at a very short notice, other wise a very large number of the London volunteers would no doubt have gladly seized so favourable an opportunity of exhibiting their prowess, but as it was a very considerable body of men were brought by 11.30 a.m. to King's-cross station—that remark able building whose exterior ugliness has been emu lated with such triumphant success by Capt. Fowke. The railway accommodation, it must be confessed was extremely rude. It was contrived out of a num ber of cattle trucks, temporarily fitted with seats ; and when the corps first 'saw these carriages there were slight symptoms of mutiny. Happily, how ever, they were soon quelled by the reflection that a little hardship was rather desirable than otherwise, as giving the affair a smack of real campaigning. And in truth it could not be helped. Every avail able carriage accessible to the company was wanted for the ordinary pleasure traffic of the season, and the superintendent had really nothing better to offer. After all, the worst inconvenience the troops had to suffer consisted in the derisive cheers, the cries of the flock, the cries of the herd, with which sundry bumpkins down the line expressed their sense of the joke, as it seemed to them, of treating " the cheap defence of nations" like so much predestined butcher's meat. The weather at starting was capricious enough. Early in the morning it was beautifully fine, but as the first train load reached the little roadside station which is appurtenant to Panshanger there was a smart shower. It very soon cleared up, however, and nothing could be more beautiful than the day, save that, soon after the end of the manoeuvres, there was another gentle hint of the extreme un pleasantness that might have resulted had the un lucky volunteers been pursued once more by their usual malign fortune. There were not many spec t.tors in the earlier part of the day, but as the afternoon wore on considerable numbers of the good people of Hertfordshire found their way into the park. Lord Palmerston was there on horseback from the very first, looking younger and more active than ever. There were also present —Lady Pal merston, the Countess and the Ladies Florence and Adine Cowper, the Marchioness of Salisbury, the Marquis Townshend, the Earl o f Verulam (Lord- Lieutenant), Lord and Lady Deere, &c. Colonel Morris, Deputy Inspector of Volunteers, was like wise on the ground. The local corps present were the Ist and 2d com panies Of the Ist Hertfordshire corps under the command of Captain the Hon. F. Cowper and Cap tain Gripper; the 2d or Watford corm, Captain Reginald Capel ; the 6th or Bishop Stortford corps, Captain Houblon ; the 9th or Ware corps, Captain Cass; the 10th or Roystock and Baldock corps, Captain Simpson; the 10th or Cheshunt corps, Capt. Goodliffe ; and the 12th and Hitehin corps, Lieut, Smith. The corps from London comprised portions of the Engineers, the Tower Hamlets corps, under the command of Lieut.-Col. Money; the South Mid dlesex, Lieut.-Col. Macleod of Macleod ; the South Middlesex, Lord Ranelagh ; the 2d ',administra tive battalion (Barnet, Hackney, &c.), Lieut.-Col. Williams ; the 39th Middlesex, Capt. Crawley ; the Volunteer Guards , Captain Bruce; the Vic torian Rifles, Capt. Gr eenhill ; the St. George's Rifles, Lieut.-Col. C. Lindsay : the 19th Li Middlesex (or Working Men's Co lle g e Corps), Lord Rad- B a thurst ; the West Middlesex, ent.-Cal. stock ; the Artists' Co r p s, Col. Phillips ; Col. the Whitehead (b e - Middlesex (St. Pancras , & c. ) , s i nce he has taken i ng his first public appearance an d the 40th Middle the command of the c or p s); There was also a de sex, Lieut. - Col. S omerset. es hire Mounted R tac h me nt from the Ca mbridg t h e command of Capt. Ries, 50 or 60 sabres strong, under bein too weak to P em b er ton. The lo cal corps g resist the imposing detachments sent down from London, Lord Ranelagh, in the spirit of mediaeval chivalry, made over to them the 19th Middlesex, about n early equal bo dies, each mustering b the West Midd lesex, the Artists', the 29th, and the 40t h Middlesex. Th is divided the force a intot l , twoo men. Panshanger Park possesses all th e na t ura l beau ties which are to be desired in a country seat. It : it is well w oo d e d, an d it b oas ts of hills and dales has spacious greenswards. It has, moreover, a l a ke and islands; and a laterally broad streamlet runs through the domain—all of which are features which would at once suggest to the military mind considerable capabilities commander and the discipline of his men in the event of the park ever becoming the arena of a real conflict. Lord R 1 ane agh wisely availed himself of them to give the corps present a valuable lesson in the art of war. The programme may be roughly described as an attempt on the part of the forces under the noble lord's command to force a passage along a footpath across the park, which was sup• posed to represent the road to London. Lord Cowper's army, on the other hand, represented the army of tho invaded country, and it undertook to arrest the march of the ruthless invader. Lord Cow per accordingly took up a position on the south or Penshanger side of the river, and establishedstro l g outposts about the only bridge in the nighbour• hood. The invaders, marching as from Hertford, commenced the attack by attempting to force a pas sage on the defenders' right, and after a sharp con flict they succeed in effecting a lodgment on an island there. This attack, however, is a me re feint reinforce• t o induce the patriots to withdraw me ats from their left, and an attac k is then made in force on the bridge. In the mean time the engi neers are preparing to throw pon t o ons across, ready fur a flank march in case the assault on the bridge should fail, or to aid in turning the defenders' left. The attack on the bridge is at first repulsed; then c d ,c; --47 , •.e `, : j the discomfited foeirreinfiiia4 e_ ' kik47 the assault renewed, . This time beaten; but they 'are neither discourage * l nor s mayed.; They retire on the London roiN, Filer° they concentrate and prepare themselves to of battle again; The invaders rush over the bridge and form on the height south of the stream. The invaders begin a terrific attack on them with the bayonet, but they make no impression •on the ram part of British breasts at which they so madly rush, and after a few moments' hand-to-hand fight ing they are driven back. They are then forced to make a stand on their first position, from which they make a new attack. This again succeeds, and the der;ndera are compelled bit by bit to change their front on their left, the right thrown back. Beyond this, however-not ring is dose. The battle may be said to have ht:t7l urged equo Marie ; the commanders swear a peace, old the mimic warfare chaeges into a. holiday proces7 i o n of the corps, which march in order past the ienl-lictl!enant ot the county (the Earl of Verularn), and the Whole proceedings terminate iq re7.l attack upon sune.re• barrels of mighty ale, whicil by the thoughtful ICi.g,,- rality of Lord Cowper have been placed under the greenwood tree for the refreshment of the weary warriors.

The bayonet charges were also admirably executed ; and the cavalry made seve.ral episodical charges of a most ferocious character. The only failure was the bridge making. The river was so shallow that the pontoons kept getting aground in a most embarrassing manner. Indeed, but for the energy and fertility of resource exhi bited by a sergeant-major (name unknown), who in the most reckless manner dashed into the stream and shoved the boats into position, the bridge would p ro bably Dof him been constructed at all. As it was it was only used by the engineers themselves to cross. The marching of all the corps was creditable, and of many it was first-rate. Not to make any invidious distinetions, we may, perhaps, be allowed to add that the local corps came no whit behind the best of those from London, a circum,,stance which raises the gratifying Presumption that the volunteer force of the country generally is in a state of con siderable efficiency. - A FLOOD IN THE FENS. A day of disaster came—e inightuke of pride. days of disaster, On which seemed like a doom reb the morrow of St. Martin, 1236, there was a gale which seemed as if it never world subside. on e longer it blew the higher rose the s ea, till the pp lation was all on the watch to see where it would break in first. It rolled in a long way i:efore it made a breach, and then it surged over into Wis - beach, and on and on, till there was no escape for many of the people, or for their cattle. Bodies of men, women and children floated to and fro amidst the carcases of oxen and horses, and boats were driven hither and thither, out of reach when most wanted. For eight days and nighi2 the gale con tinued; and when wind and water calmed down the people were ruined. Great efforts were made to repair the breaches and drain the lands; and all seemed safe again when, in 1253, the same misfortune happened again. The king then com manded that the repairs should be well executed and it is probable that the inhabitants did as well a s anybody then knew h ow ; but the case of the shifting soil, the peat, now swelling and now sink ing, the incalculable pressure of the water when changes rere made, far or near, was too hard for the knowledge and skill of the time and the people,. For centuries there was a succession of inundations at very unequal intervals, and invariably a new settlement between, with fresh hopes that the CRl bankments were at last secure. There were strifes also among the inhabitants when, from time to time, some great man threw water over upon a neighbour's laud to drain his own. The courts decided, now for one side and now for the other and there was a pulling down of dykes, and obliteration of new channels and restoration of old . ones. We have plenty, of evidence of the m ischie f done, and of the wonderful energy of t he people in returning to live on lands so often drowned. In digging, we find here the floor of a house, there trunks of large trees; and again, a churchyard, or a stackyard, or a bit of paved street or causeway, or a group of boats, sunk in the silt. A mi sth's forge has been found in one pla ce, and a line of tan-pits in another ; and a cart-wheel, and Flicks of human dress, distinctive of several Yeig ns ' -- Once a Week. MURDER AT BRIGHTON. The inhabitants of Brighton were shocked on Sunday night by a rumour that a murder had been committed in Church-street, and which proved too bar true, for the sentry on guard at the infantry racks had shot one of his comrades dead as he entered the gates.

As soon as the examination of the whole of the guns mounted on the sea defences within the Chat ham district has been completed by Capt. Dyer, the inspector of artillery, the first brigade of the Kent Volunteer Artillery, consisting of six batteries, will commence practice with 68-pounder solid shot and 32-pounder common shell. The authorities have decided that practice with the Armstrong guns will not be made by the Volunteer Artillery this year, but that a supply of Armstrong shot and shell will be issued to the Volunteers next year, provided they are reported to be sufficiently pro ficient. The scientific portion of the Japanese Embassy yesterday paid another visit to Woolwich Arsenal. They remained four hours in the Royal gun fac tories and the carriage department. The whole of the time was employed in taking notes and sketches, and in examining with persevering -interest the numerous articles manufactured in the department. A fine paddlewheel steam-sloop belonging to the Dutch Government yesterday arrived at Woolwich for the purpose of conveying the Ambassadors and suite to Holland. The vessel is at present moored off the dockyard, awaiting orders. Capt. Walsh, R.A., promoted from the 4th to the 6th Brigade, in command of 34 non-commissioned officers and privates from Capt.

UNIVERSITY CORPS. yesterday the Rifle Volunteer Corps of the Uni• versities of Oxford and Cambridge, with whom were brigaded the Inns of Court Corps, were re viewed in Hyde-park by Col. Murdo, inspector general of volunteers. A large space of ground, extending from the Bayswater side of the park to Grosvenor-gate on the one side, and close to the road abutting on Kensington-gardens on the other, was enclosed with iron hurdles, and formed a spa cious and convenient area for the operations of the day. The Cambridge volunteers were invited to luncheon by the Oxford corps at the Great Western Hotel, and shortly after three o'clock the latter corps marched on to the ground and took up a position with their left upon the Bayswater side of the park, facing Grosvenor-gate. They were fol lowed in a very short time by the Cambridge, who took ground on the right, but with a large interval Letters received at Plymouth from Vancouver's between them which was supposed to have been left Lsland state that the screw steam frigate Topaze, to be filled up by the Inns of Court.

There has been a furious boiling up of the war cauldron since Sunday last. Every one was calcu lating on the evacuation or capture of Richmond, or in some other triumph of the Federal arms, either under the walls of that city or at Corinth, when suddenly there came the news of a defeat from a quarter where nobody expected any danger 7---a defeat that has created something like a panic in Washington and in this city, if not throughout the whole North. Sunday has of late become so especially the day for the arrival in this city of important war news, that before going to church in the morning most people make up their minds to hear either of a victory or a defeat on coming out of it, and many stay away altogether from Divine service that they may be earlier informed. Three Sundays ago came the evacuation of Norfolk. The Sunday before last brought intelligence of the re pulse of the Monitor and the Galena in the James River, and the day before yesterday New York re ceived a still greater shock in the news that Gene ral Banks had been defeated at Winchester by a large force under General Jackson, after an obsti nate engagement of six hours, and that the Federal army of the Shenandoah was in full retreat across the Potomac. The news was generally credited, and created a very uneasy feeling in the minds of the large claw who are weary of the war, and look with alarm on any Confederate victory that may tend to prolong it. The despatches and details that arrived yesterday confirmed it to the fullest extent, and added other particulars of a nature to cause some apprehension for the safety of Balti more, and even of Washington. The friends of the South are so many and so influential in Baltimore —though the " rowdy" mob is on the other side — that not even the presence of a large Federal army under General Dix—who occupies the city after the fashion in which the Russian Generals occupy Warsaw— is sufficient to restrain the expression of their delight whenever the Northern fleets or armies sustain a reverse. The first intimation of the danger in which Genera. Banks was placed reached Baltimore and Washing ton on Saturday, on which day a portion of his command, under Col. Kenley, a Marylander, at the head of a Maryland regiment, was defeated with severe loss at Front Royal, a position on the She nandoah on the line of the Manassas Gap Railroad to Alexandria. Some over-zealous Secessionists were imprudent enough to express in the streets their satisfaction at the event, and to call it a befit ting judgment upon recreant Marylanders, who were traitors to the cause of the South. This led to ill blood, and to popular gatherings in the streets. The passions of both parties were violently aroused, and it was by the merest accident that bloodshed and murder did not result. And when the news of the following up of the first little victory of the Confe derate arms by the defeat of Banks arrived, in the midst of the excitement, the thermometer of the popular temper went up from blood heat to fever heat at one bound, and there was imminent danger that Baltimore would be the theatre of events of which the parallel is only to be found in the blood stained annals of Paris during the " Reign of Ter ror." " Judge Lynch," that ominous public func tionary, who bids fair to override all law but his own in many cities of the Union if this vindictive war is allowed to linger much longer, paraded the streets in the shape of a furious Union mob. Having caught hold of a Southern "sympathiser" in Monu ment-square, there were loud cries to hang him upon a lamp-post, and, a rope having been procured, pre parations were made to carry the threat into execu tion, - when a large posse of police opportunely arrived, and rescued the man frOm death, with the noose around his neck. " Judge Lynch," thus butaked of his victim, retired in bad humour to other quarters of the city,and amused himself by beating Secession• ists with sticks and hunting them through the streets. All the most prominent citizens who had identified themselves with the South kept prudently out of sight, and many of them barricaded them selves in their house, and stood ready armed with I their whole household to resist any attack that might be made upon them. Such is the popular frenzy, , exasperated as it is by the violence of the women of all classes, high and low, that General Dix will have a harder tax than ever to keep Baltimore in order, , even should Jackson, elated with his victory, not 'suddenly make his appearance at the gates to de mand its surrender. The President, on Sunday afternoon, on receipt of the telegrams announcing the retreat of Banks and the mischief brewing at Baltimore, issued a pro- clamation by which he took military possession of all the railroads in the United States, and directed the officials to hold themselves in readiness for the transport of troops and munitions of war, to the exclusion of all other business. The Governor of the State of New York was equally prompt, and immediately on the arrival of the news at Albany ordered the sth New York Volunteer Artillery and the 7th Regiment of the New York State Militia to proceed to Washington on the morrow for the defence of the capital. Last night at 8 o'clock the 7th Regiment—the crack regiment of the city and very popular—was fully equipped and ready for the work, and marched down Broadway, flags flying and drums beating, amidst the enthusiastic plaudits of an immense crowd that lined the thoroughfare, and of a crowd of ladies, equally enthusiastic, who filled every win dow and balcony commanding a view of their march. It thence proceeded to the ferry at the foot of Courtland-street, across the Hudson river to the :railway station, and travelled all night to Washington. The same eagerness is displayed in other States and cities, and it is certain that the President can gather around him a quarter of a million of militiamen for the defence of Washing ton if he needs them. In the meantime everybody is asking how Gen. Banks was brought into th is scra p e. No one seems to blame him in any way for the defeat he has suf fered, seeing that he had but 4.000 men, and Jack son from 15,000 to 18,000. The result is traced to the interference of Mr. Secretary Stanton, who de prived General Banks of two-thirds of his army at a time when he ought to have known that the Con federate force in the valley of the Shenandoah had been largely increased, and taken up a position alike strong for attack or defence. It appears to have been deemed expedient at Washington to reiaforce Gen. M'Dowell at Fredericksburg—probably with the view of enabling him to co-operate with M'Clellan in some movement against Richmond; consequently the divisions of Generals Shields and Geary were withdrawn from Bank's army on the 15th, and Banks left with 4,000 men. The Presi d.lit seems io have had some misgiving about the matter, after the mischief had been done, and started suddenly from Washington ou Friday last to visit General M'Dowell at his head-quarters. lie had scarcely returned to Washington on Saturday when the first intimation of the impending evil reached him in a despatch from Gen. Banks at Strasburg, to the effect that Col. Kenley - had been defeated at Front Royal. This news was known in New York early on Sunday morning, as well as in Baltimore and Washington, and led most persons who had studied the map, and who knew anything of the state of matters in the Shenandoah valley, to an ticipatehavelong been accustomed to sneer at Banks as a further disasters. Gen. Banks has bee n already reinforced, and, unless Gen. Jackson be too rapid for him, will doubtless attempt to regain his it o grou n d.
