Thie wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most shattered constitution, whether arising from selt-pollution, excesses, nocturnal emissions, the effects of climate, or natu ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate case is four weeks ; and, 'timed acoprding to the p r i n t e d in structions (which are very simple), failure is impossible. This life-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to marry, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made.

The peculiar source of physical and moral degeneracy al luded to has at all times been specially deprecated , by philo sophers and philanthropists. It besets inexperienced youth, laying the foundation of future misery, poisoning the nuptial cup with bitter malignity; destroying health, curtailing life, and making it, during its brief career , a scen e of an g uish, from the consciousness of humiliating infirmity. The evil is but too rife in our age and country ; and expe rience can often discern the sad results in the early deaths, the hereditary and perpetuated ailrnentg, and the matri monilanlesds, andiscsourffdseirers form may su sandals, described, in convent ial par lance, as " unaccountable " and "mysterious."

The two plates injured last week by the bending apparatus have been severely tested under the full force of the hydraulic power, and the damaged part has been chiselled out and examined most minutely, but without discovering any pretext for rejecting them beyond the flaw in the centre of each, occasioned by the pressure required in the process of bending them cold. Her Majesty's iron screw steam storeship Drome dary yesterday completed repairs in dock at Wool wich, and will be undoeked this morning, in readi ness to ship stores for Rio de Janeiro. Although only six months in commission it was found neces sarry to lay on a new coating both inside and out, to prevent the rivet heads from being corroded with bilge water in the hold, and to remedy the adher ence and collection of barnacles and seaweed to the hull, which it is well known affects the speed of vessels thus infested. The Portland cement with which the vessel was formerly coated has now been pared over with Day's composition, which has been " laid on solid" fore and aft, and in all the bays between limbers to the level of the limber holes throughout, as directed to be carried out in her Majesty's ship Adventure. In order to complete the work in the specified time it was continued throughout the whole of Monday night. It was laid on in a hot lava state from a couple of portable cauldrons kept boiling night and day. The exterior is coated with M'lnnis's liquid composition, some what similar to thick paint. The paddlewheel steamvessel Bustler yesterday went to Greenhithe from Woolwich to lay down new buoys and to assist in swinging the Spitfire, Master-Commander Bowden, now ready to sail for Bermuda. The paddlewheel despatch vessel Caradoc, in basin at Woolwich, has been repaired throughout, and rendered completely new as regards her bul warks, paddleboxes, decks, &c. She will be out of the shipwrighLa' hands on §aturday next, and wnl be again commissioned for the Mediterranean ser vice. The Alecto and the Scourge, also at Wool wich, are likewise ordered to be brought forward at an early date. A number of hired shipwrights and labourers will shortly be entered at Chatham dockyard to break up the Deptford transport, lying on the beach opposite the dockyard, No. 48 mortarboat having been brought up from Yautlett-creek to take the place of the Deptford. Yesterday a number of the 68-pounder and 56 cwt. cast iron guns belonging to the Hero, 89, 500 horse power, were landed at the Ordnance-wharf, Chatham, with the assistance of a party of convicts from the War Department transports which brought them from the Nore. Notwithstanding the length of time the Hero has been in commission her guns are all in excellent order, and only a very few of those already landed will require to be sent to Wool wich to be re-vented. The arrangements for the extension of the metro politan police doing duty at Chatham dockyard to the Ordnance-wharf, and some other of the public departments at Chatham, have been completed by Sir R. Mayne, who, in concert with Mr. Superin tendent Richardson, the principal officer of the dockyard force, has been engaged at Chatham in taking the necessary measures for extending the duties of the force to those Government establish ments which will in future be under the charge of the dockyard police. Under the new arrangements the whole of the Government works at St. Mary's Island for the extension of the dockyard will be placed under the charge of the metropolitan police, and, with the exception of a few troops who will still be retained, the military guard over the con victs employed on the island withdrawn. Since Monday the dockyard police have commenced their duties at the Ordnance-wharf, the vast quantity of all kinds of naval and military stores accumulated at which have hitherto been guarded by some two or three soldiers employed on sentry duty. A cer tain number of police-constables are also on duty night and day at the Naval Hospital at Melville. The additional establishments placed under the charge of the dockyard police will necessitate the augmentation of the force at Chatham dockyard. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Capt. G. Wodehouse, to the Meeanee ; Sub-Lieut. Philip R. H. Parker, to the Resistance; the Rev. J. P. Oliver, chaplain, to the Emerald; the Rev. T. R. Hamilton, chaplain, to the Cumberland; W. J. Ibbett, chief engineer, to the Asia, for the Urgent, when that ship is paid off; George C.

THE CRISIS 1N fIHE UNITED STATES. --- - --•---- ADDRESS OF THE COMMITTEE OF THE BRITISH AND FOREIGN ANTI-SLAVERY SOCIETY. The committee of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society having observed with the deepest sorrow the efforts which are being made to infuse into the minds of the people of this country sentiments friendly to slavery, feel it to be their duty to reiterate, and to commend to the serious con sideration of their fellow -countrymen, the fundamental principle of the anti-slavery movement in England, that " slaveholding is a sin and a crime before God," and there fore that unconditional emancipation wherever slavery is maintained is alone consistent with the Divine law, and with the requirements of justice and humanity. While the committee believe that the efforts referred to have not yet pervaded the community at large, the tone and spirit of certain articles in a portion of the public press, the misrepresentation and perversion of facts, the biassed addresses of many men of influence, all with the manifest tendency to bespeak favour for those who are contending for the extension and consolidation of slavery, and to dis parage and discourage all efforts directed to its extinction, impress the committee with the painful conviction that, in some quarters, a demoralising effect has been produced. The committee deplore and regards with profound grief the fratricidal conflict between the two sections of the Ame rican Union, but, while anxious to avoid expressing any opinion, they.regard it as established beyond disproof that the South was not only the aggressor, but designedly pro voked an armed contest with the United States Govern ment, with the express sole object of founding. a confede racy to perpetuate slavery. On the other hand, the United States Government, embracing the political anti-slavery party - of the North-L-commonly called the republican party —has initiated and carried into effect measures in further ance of negro emancipation which entitle it to the sympathy of all true friends of freedom. It has enforced the statutes against slave trading which former Administrations, being pr..ciavc+,7, had allowed to .remain_irioperatire, and has prosecuted slave traders to conviction and punishment; has entered into anew anti-slave trade treaty with Great Bri tain, conceding right of search, which former governments, overruled by the Southern party, had stedfastly refused. To promote the speedy settlement of the territories by a non-slaveholding population, it has enacted a Homestead Bill, giving 160 acres of land to every immigrant, irrespective of his national origin ; and moreover, carrying into effect the policy of Jefferson, ratified by act of Congress in 1789, it has prohibited slavery for ever in those territories, upon which issue alone the Southern candidate for the presidency was defeated at the election which immediately preceded the present rebellion ; it has also abolished slavery from the district of Columbia ; it has virtually repealed the Fugitive Slave Act by prohibiting the rendition of slaves escaping from the rebel States to the lines of the United States army, providing compensation on account of such as may belong to loyal citizens; it has recognised and entered into diplomatic relations with the negro republics of Liberia and Haiti ; by the Confiscation Bill—consider-. ately made non-retrospective—it, in effect, proclaimed emancipation to the slaves in the rebel States within a speci fied period; a majority in congress has ratified the presi dent's plan of compensated emancipation for such slave states as may elect to take advantage of it, and only re cently the President has announced that the details of the measure will be submitted to the next congress, with a view to its immediate practical application. LaitlY, the President has lately issued a proclamation, declaring absolutely and for'ever free all the slaves in those States which shall be in rebellion on the lst, of January next, and pointing to the measure in progress for the abo lition of slavery in the loyal States, upon the principle of indemnification. While the committee depreciate a resort to arms, even with the avowed purpose of promoting the extinction of slavery, they reiterate the opinion that the friends of the slave in the United States, under whatsoever designation, have established a just claim upon the sympathy of the friends of freedom throughout Europe. In this spirit, and with the object of evoking such an ex: pression of sympathy as shall encourage the emancipation party in the United States, in their most difficult position, to persevere in their endeavours to obtain justice for the slave, the committee issue the present address, earnestly commending it to the favourable consideration of their fel low-countrymen, and to the friends of humanity in all lands. On behalf of the committee. THOMAS BINNS, Chairman. S. A. CulatlEßovzoW, Secretary. 27, New Broad-street, E.C., London, Nov. 17. investigation until the proper documents or other evidenee I could be procured from South America, which would involve a postponement and a detention of the master and mate's certificates for two or three months without adjudication, inflicting hardships upon them, and perhaps injustice upon one or other of them ; or, 3dly. To proceed to adjudicate the case on their own statements. This last course was adopted (with the concurrence of the master and mate), as appearing to be the only one consistent with a due exe cution of the act of Parliament, and with a just considera tion of the rights and interests of the parties charged. The following questions were thereforeput to nautical assessors : —First, with regard to the master—whether the course stated by him to have been laid, namely, S. by E., when oft Low Point, three miles distant, was a proper course ; and if not, whether that was a default causing the loss of the ship ? The answer of the assessors to this question was, that the course was not a prudent course; but as it ap pears that the deviation and variation being both easterly, the course steered, if correctly observed, would have car ried the ship a mile clear of all the points of the land up to Tetos, it cannot be considered to have been the cause of the loss. Acting upon this opinion, in whichg concurred, I re turned the certificate to the master, calling his attention to the opinion of the assessors as to the imprudence of his course, and pointing out to him the extreme impropriety of running such unnecessary risk, and making no allowances for any possible contingency that might impede the progress or divert the course of the ship. Secondly, with regard to the chief mate, the opinion of the assessors was asked— whether, under the circumstances of the ease as stated by him, and considering his nearness to the shore at Mount jorgino, and the distinctness with which the coast was - to be seen, and with a know ledge that .these rocks lay in the track from Jorgino to Tetos, it was proper conduct on his part to keep a S. by E. course ; and if not, whether his doing so was a default causing the loss of the ship ? To this question the answer of the •assessors was as follows :=That it was not impro • bable that use inreiiiiinus!kepeatetuy -girt.. tLe lliate tc the helmsman to starboard might have had the effect of keeping her higher than the course laid by the master; but supposing this not to be so, and that the course laid by the master was strictly kept, still it was the duty of the chief mate, on finding himself so close to the land, either to have altered the course or to have called the master, and that his not doing either of these things, but proceeding without due caution in the face of such manifest danger, was a de fault on his part, causing the loss of the ship. Upon this opinion, in which I concurred, I decided that the chief mate, Mr. Henry William Sivell, was guilty of a default causing the loss of the ship Liiva, and adjudged that his certificate be suspended for the term of three calendar months from the Bth inst., the date of the adjudication. The certificate of Mr. H. W. Sivell is sent with this report. Testimonials as to his character and ability were produced by him, which appear to me to justify the expectation that the sentence in this case, though lenient, will be found sufficient --I have, &c., JAMES TLULL.

It appears that this company, in the absence of any ar rangements with the Great Eastern Company, will apply to Parliament in the forthcoming Session for extensions to the Great Eastern, Clare, and Shelford line at Haverhill; for the abandonment of parts of the Great Eastern line at Haverhill and their Haverhill branch; also for running powers over the Great Eastern Railway to Cambridge. The reason alleged for this intended application is that in the session of 1861 the Great Eastern Company obtained power to make 48 miles of new lines, and were directed to proceed forthwith to the construction of that section of them lying between Haverhill and Shelford. The whole were to be in working operation in three years from the passing of the act, and that nearly half the time has been allowed to elapse without the work being commenced. Consultations free.

Not content with this, he attacked his unfortunate wife with the tongs, and beat her severely about the head and body till she was almost insensible, in which state her daughter ma naged to get her to bed.

THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY. --I n ant i cipation of the opening of the Metropolitan Railway, a number of large three-horse omnibuses have commenced running be tween the Farringdon-street station of that line and the Elephant and Castle station of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, at fares of 2d., thus affording a direct com munication, via Blackfriars .bridge, betweeN, the railway geteres ;lath ad south o the Thames: : BOSTON AND FREISTON SHORE. A company has been formed to carry out this new line, which is to commence by a junction with the Boston Sleaford, and Midland Counties Railway, to cross the Witham, and run direct to Frieston Low. At that point a pier is to be constructed, so as to form a breakwater and admit vessels alongside to discharge their cargoes. There is a depth of water at this point of 291 t. at low tide. It is stated that the Boston, Sleaford, and Midlond Counties Company have agreed to subscribe £30,000 towards the undertaking. KETTERING AND HUNTINGDON. Surveys have been made with a view to the extension of the Kettering and Thrapstone Railway to Huntingdon. EASTERN BENGAL. The directors state in their report that a train run through all the way from Calcutta to Kooshtee on the 20th of August last, and that a train with materials has been run through every week since. On the 12th of September the Lieute nant-Governor of Bengal returned to Calcutta from a tour in the provinces by a special train from liooshtee. He alighted to inspect the iron bridge of about 1,000 feet in length over the river Koomar (the heaviest work on the railway), and the train stopped at the principal stations along the line. Notwithstanding these delays, the journey was accomplished in five hours and a half. It was subsequently determined by the agent and chief engineer, with the sanc tion of the Government, to open the portion of the line be tween Calcutta and Itanaghat, a distance of 45 miles, for passenger traffic. The first pas senger train commenced running on the 29th of September last, and 1,553 passengers were booked out of Calcutta on that day. During the week immediately following the receipts for passengers amounted to 4,000 rupees. The latest advices state that arrangements were being made for opening the line throughout from Cal• cutta to Kooshlee for general traffic on the Ist of November inst. The agent stated that he had every reason to believe that soon after the opening steam communication by the rivers would be established between Kooshtee, the terminal station on the Ganges, and Serajgunge, the great mart or emporium of trade of Eastern Bengal, and that he expected a large traffic by that means. The directors have every reason to feel satisfied that the line was actually opened throughout at the time above mentioned. The capital account shows that £1,399,700 had been received, and L 1,206,696 expended, leaving a balance of £193,003. MADRAS IRRIGATION AND CANAL. The directors of this company state in their report that the portion of the year corresponding with that which has passed since their last report must always be, from natural causes, the mostunfavourable for executive operations. The south-west monsoon commences in May, producing disease and consequent desertion of labourers, end this is followed by the rains in June, which usually continue until October, rendering a partial suspension of outdoor labour during that time absolutely necessary ; nevertheless, and although the floods of the current year in the locality of Kurnool and the adjacent districts have been unusually heavy, the con struction of the anicut across the river Toombuddra at Soonkasala, and of the aqueduct over the river Hindry at Kurnool, has been carried on with commendable expedition. The chief engineer remains firm in his previously expressed conviction that his original estimate for the whole line of works from Soonkasala to the coast will not be exceeded, if his plans are carried out without further obstruction or delay. The construction of the anicut at Soonkasala pro ceeded rapidly until June last, when the floods commenced and prevented further progress. On the Ist of last month (October) the river had so far subsided as to permit a resump tion of labour on the anicut itself, and then it was found that the work previously executed had withstood the floods most satisfactorily. The heavy masonry work of the head sluices of the main channel had also, up to the last mentioned date, progressed steadily. Tho main canal from the anicut just mentioned to the Hindry aqueduct, a distance of 171 has been nearly completed, including the distributing sluices, the culverts for drainage, and the calingulahs, or escapes, although the greater portion has been cut through compact rock, and for some time past this length of channel has been ready to receive at least three feet depth of water. The Ilindry aqueduct, a work of great extent and importance, was completed to above the height of the floods before the early freshes of the river came down at the end of April last, and, though severely tested, it withstood those floods without injury. The completion of this great work, ac cording to the statement of the chief engineer, will probably be achieved in July next. The section of the main canal from the Hindry aqueduct to Nagatoor, a length of 26 miles, terminating at the 43d mile from Soonkasala, has been par tially excavated, and the chief engineer has expressed a hope ter that he will be able to have the whole ready to receive water in July next. From the 43d to the 72d mile, the excavation orkon of the chief canal has also been commenced. Theetew of the this section has been seriously retarded by the er acts the collector of the district, who, though an Go vernmentwith hwithheld suchauthorising r the r transfer a Aprilnsf e August.

Greenwich Police Court, Nov. 13, 1562. My Lords,—ln compliance with your lordships' instruc tions, I have, with the assistance of Captains Harris and Baker, as nautical assessors, and under the provisions of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1854, and of the Amendment Act, 1862, made inquiry into the loss of the steamship Lima, on the coast of Bolivia, in South America, and I beg leave to transmit for your lordships' information a minute of the proceedings, and the decision adjudging the certificate of Henry William Sivell, chief mate of the ship, to be sus pended for three calendar months. The Lima was a paddle wheel iron steamship, of 1,165 tons, built in the year 1851, owned by the Pacific Steam Navigation Company, and employed in the conveyance of mails and passengers, and in the general traffic of the company, between the ports of Panama and Valparaiso. The Lima appears to have been a well built, well found, and properly manned ship, and in all respects adapted for the station and trade in which she was employed, and was under the command of Henry Wyld, a skilful and experienced officer, holding a Board of Trade certificate of competency as extra master. Besides the captain, there was a chief mate, Mr. Henry William Sivell, also holding a Board of Trade certificate of compe tency, dated 1858, two other mates, and a crew, all hands included, of about 65 men. The Lima took her departure from Panama for Valparaiso on the 24th of June last, hav ing on board between 40 and 60 passengers, the usual mails, 300 to 400 tons of general cargo, and some specie, and reached the port of Cobija, in Bolivia, between 9 and 10 p.m. of the 10th of July,:proceeding from thence on her voyage at 11 25 the same night. About 35 miles to the southward of Cobija the land projects beyond the general line of coast, from a point called Low Point, in the neighbourhood of Mount Mesillones, to another point called Point called Tetos, a distan ce o f 26 m i les. About m id wa y o f thi s dis tance is a high land called Mount Jorgino, between which and Point Tetos, nearly in a direct line, lie three rocks, forming a reef, at a distance of half a mile from the shore. These rocks, though hardly visible above water, are easily discernible, by reason of the wash of the sea over them. The whole of this line of coast is bold and precipitous, without soundings, even close to the shore; but as the wind blows almost invariably from the south alongshore, and seldom with any vi o l ence, and as there is hardly any perceptible tide or current, or anything to affect a ship's course, except the regular swell of the Pacific) towards the land, it is usual to keep closer in shore than might be considered proper under different circumstances. The course of the Lima after leaving Cobija will be found in the statements of the Captain and Chief Mate, and are as follows :—At 11 40, off False Point, the point was set S. by W. I W., and so kept till about midnight. when it was altered to S. by W. W. At 3 a.m. of the 11th of July the course was altered to S. E., Mount Mesillones bearing S.E., which course was steered till 3.45 a.m., when the ship was hauled half a point to the eastward, making her course S. by E., Mount Mesilones and Low Point being then both in a line, bearing east a-beam, the latter distant about three miles. At this time Mount Jorgino was distinctly visible, I well open on the port bow, distant about ten miles. The captain then went below, thinking (as he says) " that, it being bright moonlight and clear, the land being distinctly visible, and the chief officer's (Mr. Sivell) watch coming on in a quarter of an hour, he went to his room on deck and took off his clothes, having the greatest confidence in the safety of the ship, aid remained in his cabin until the ship struck. At 4.16 the chief mate came on deck (it being his watch) and received the course (S. by E.) from the officer ' of the watch, the second mate, by whom he was told to call the captain when abreast of Tetos Point, At this time Low Point bore about a point abaft the beam, about two miles off, the ship going about 81i knots, and the coast being distinctly visible; that on taking charge of the ship he walked about, looked occasionally at the compass, and to see that the look-outs were at their posts, one on the bridge and one on the forecastle ; that about half-past four he looked at the standard compass, and saw that the ship was not steering higher than S.

W. of Mount Jorgino. It appears further, by the statements of the master and mate, that every attempt was made to get the ship off, but without effect, and she became a total wreck, the passen gers, crew, ma ils, specie, and part of th e cargo , b e i ng sa ved and landed at Cobija. It appears that, six days after the wreck on the 17th July, depositions of the master, chief and second mates, and some of the crew, were taken by the con sul at Cobija; but as these depositions have not been trans mated, certified in strict conformity with the Act of Parlia ment, they were not considered admissible in evidence. In this state of the case one of three courses was to be adopted —viz.: Ist.

RECEIV ING A - ' 7- 7 --- NUN.--The ceremony of rece i ving a nun too k place at the R oman Catholic chapel,L.tdder _ minster, on Saturday. The novice was a young lady named Diary A u gusta Ann Theresa Tyran,from the c ounty Meath,in Ireland. The namo by which s h e will be known among the sisterhood at Kidderminster, h owever, will be Sister Mary Theresa. The young lady's friends aro stated to b e persons of position and we a l t h in the abovenamed co unty. At the close of an address from Dr. Ulla thorne, the novice advanced from her scat, and knelt before the bishop, who asked her if she was thoroughly aware of the obligations she was going to take. The novice responded, in a subdued voice, that she was. Having prostrated herself on her face before the bishop, prayer was offered. The black veil having been placed over her head, the bishop said that the habit she now wore was the livery of Jesus Christ, and it should remind her that she had f or ever forsaken the world and was in future to serve God alone. Another prayer followed, the nun again prostrating herself as before. Tho bishop asked if it was with willing heart sho renounced the world, and all similar pretensions. An answer was given in the affirmative. The bishop then gave the now professed nun a crucifix, which she owed to her spiritual spouse. The bishop :—" The hour of your sacrifice is come. Do you cheerfully, with out reserve, give yourself to God ?" The nun returned answer that she did. Mass was then performed with the usual ceremonies, during which the nun made a manta. tion of the world, and devoted herself to a religious life. The bishop upon this declared that he had admitted her into the institute of the Blessed Virgin, and he promised her, if she kept her vows, eyerlasting life, THE HEALTH OF LONDON. (Frani the Registrar General's nckly Report,) Fourteen hundred and twenty-nine deaths were registered in London in the week that ended last Saturday. The wintry cold and fogs of a week in which the mean temperature of the nir was nearly 7 degrees below the average raised the deaths about 200 above the mean of the two preceding weeks. The deaths in the last three weeks have been 1184, 1307, and 1429. The mean temperature in the same period was 46,8 deg., 44.9 deg., and 37.3 deg. The average number of deaths in the correspond ing weeks of ten years (1852-61) becomes, after correction for increase of population, 1323. The deaths last week were more numerous by a hundred than they would have been if the average rate of mortality in the second week of November had prevailed. Pulmonary diseases, exclusive of phthisis, were 183 and 197 in the two previous weeks ; last week they rose to 283. The deaths from whooping cough in the same three weeks were 29, 28, 40 ; those from phthisis were 119, 152, and 166. The increase in the mortality of last week has arisen chiefly from bronchitis and pneumonia. Small-pox was fatal in 13 cases, and three of these occurred in the St. John sub-district of St. George-in -the-East. Scarlatina was fatal in 100 cases, 4 of which occurred in St. Mary Paddington, 4in Chelsea North-west sub-distict, 4 in Cripple gate, 4 in St. Peter Walwortb, 8 in Kennington, and 7 in the district of Bethnal-green. Eight children died of measles in Islington, 6 in Hoxton. It is said there has been much typhus in certain houses in Everard-street, St, George-in-the East in Last week the births of 928 b oys and 976 girls, all 1,904 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding week s of the years 185261 the average number (corrected) was 1806. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.659 in. The reading fell to 29 . 22 in. on Monday, and rose to 29.98 in. on Wednesday. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 37.3 deg., which is 6.5 deg. below the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily tem perature was below the average on every day after Sunday; and on Tuesday and the three following days the amount of depression was from 9 deg. to 12 deg. The highest day temperature was 53.1 deg. on Sunday ; the lowest night temperature was 24.9 deg., or 7.1 deg, below the freezing point of water on Friday. The range of the thermometer in the week was, therefore, 28.2 deg. The difference be tween the mean dew-point temperature and air tem perature was 2.7 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 91, complete saturation being repre sented by 100, which point was nearly attained on the last two days. The wind was in the south-west till Tuesday afternoon, after which it blew chiefly from a northerly point. There was no rain measured except on the first two days, when the amount was less than two-tenths of an inch.
