LA'MERT on the Treatment and cure of NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, resulting from pernicious habits contracted in Youth, excesses in Man hood, or residence in Tropical Climates. With Cases and En gravings from Life, representing the various Organs in Health and Disease. The extensive circulation of this work may be attributed in great measure to the fact that the Author is the only duly qualified and legally registered Practitioner who for 20 years has made the Diseases arising usually from Imprudence the peculiar objects of his attention. The im pediments which so often either prohibit wedlock, or embitter and render it a state of misery, by disappointing* its fondest hopes and marring its highest objects, are, though varied in form, closely analogous in reality. The mischief may arise in nocently, from deleterious influences devolved from the necessities of position—from circumstances which occurred years before the sufferers were born from accident or the in fluence of tropical clim a t es , b u t chiefly from Self-incurred Afflictions, dating back, in too numerous instances, to a period low. , preceding that at which reason could be matured by ex perience. A professional prejudice, which happily is now fast disap pearing, though it still lingers with no little obstinacy in some of the more antiquated medical schools, for a long time almost ignored the morbid affections comprised 'under the general designation "Nervous and Physical Debility," though thew• affections are probably more destructive and widely pre valent than any others. The consequence of so important a department of pathology being neglected is, that sufferers from the infirmities in question, virtually r. pellet" from consultation with prac titioners of standing and character, are thus liable to fall into the hands of unqualified Empirics, sometimes assuming titles o f Physicians and Surgeons, whose names are not to be found in the Medical Register (whereby they incur serio us l ega l penalties), whose ignorant meddling with the treatment of these cases render these disorders a standing reproach to the medical profession. Those who may have a suspicion that any of the observations here made have peculiar applica tion to themselves, may consider that cases are indeed rare in which practised science cannot fully realise long-deferred h o pes, remove all causes of mutual reproach, and replace c hronic embitterment by permanent content. pr.LaiMert. M.D., Honorary Member of the London Hos pital Medical Society, &c., is the only legally qualified regis tered practitioner who, for 20 years, has devoted his attention to the treatment of these disorders.

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 he the last, if he shall detect any other squally 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 pursss. The difference between true Spermatorrheea 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."—Medic a l Circular. " We have dilated 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 Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within ths reach of every one interested in the matter." — Dublin Medical Press.

The church is flanked by two wings, which are to contain the priests' aparfments and offices. The build- ing is far from complete, but the gilding is proceeding rapidly, and seems to he continued on the stonework be neath the cupolas. Behind and around this church demolition and recon struction are going on at a great rate ; the new Boulevard de Monceaux, which stretches from the Place de l'Europe to the Barriere de l'Etoile, pass..s close to the new church. Place de l'Etoile has recently been supplied with a large number of extremely light and elegant lamps, but the effect is very much injured by the use of ground glass, which takes away all the brilliancy, and causes the beautiful arch to be in positive darkness as compared with the Luxor obe lisk, which rears its head amidst the Grecian and Renais sance structures of the Place de la Concorde. This curious but ill-placed monolith is splendidly lighted, while the Arc de Triomphe de l'Etoile is scarcely visible at night, unless the moon takes pity on its hidden beauties. From every part of the new boulevard run other boulevards and streets; the Hospice de Roule his been pulled down, and the space where it stood is being covered with magnificent houses. In an9jvforiii per haps, whor hfact, the Quartier Beaujon is being so transformed that it i s sc a a p r s c: t ly ha to t t b h e is re q c u o ar gn te is r ed is . n l a t m is ed no a t fte ge r ne m ra . ll ß y had a most luxurious villa therein, and who inhabited the Ibtel Evreux, which had been occupied by Madame de Pompadour and the Marquis de Marigny (after whom a street or avenue ie named) and which became afterwards the property of Louis XV., and was re-named the Elysee Bourbon, now Elysee Napoleon. The park of Monceaux is being traversed by a boulevard, and the other day the sum of 4} millions of francs was awarded for the ground taken for that purpose; half of it belonged to the late Louis Philippe—that was confiscated to the State, but the other portion of the money goes to th 6 ex-Queen Amelie and her children. Many people will remember a circular colonnade with a statue in -the centre; the columns which formed it have been unfortunate ; they were prepared for a grand mausoleum at St. Denis, to re ceive the remains of Henry IV., but which was never com pleted, and they have now stood in the deserted park sup porting nothing for years. A portion of the park has been laid out in squares and building plbts, but the remainder is to be cultivated as a public pleasure garden. In other parts of the town the masons are at work just as actively ; the Palais de Justice has received considerable improvements and decorations. Amongst the latter is the placing of six marble busts in the small hall or chamber of the Pas-Perdus. These busts represent three civil lieute nants of the Chatelet, Le Camus, d'Argonnes de Fleury and Angran d'Alleray, and three presidents of. the civil tribunal of the Seine, MM.. Berthereau, Try, and Moreau, all men of high rank, but amongst whom M. d'Alleray is in every way the most renowned. He fell on the scaffold dur, ing the revolution rather than plead ignorance, for, when asked whether he was aware that he had broken a law of the Republic by sending aid to his children who had fled from France, he answered, "I know it, but there is a law more, sacred than that of the Republic, viz., that of nature, which commands fathers to support their offspring." The old wall which ran along the garden of the Luxem bourg has disappeared, and is now being replaced by an elegant and massive railing throughout the whole length of the garden. A new street is also Peing opened on the other aide of the gardens, which will thus be completely isolated from the houses. It is said that the city has granted a pension to an exca vator who has discovered a very simple method of preserv ing gas and water pipes. He had observed that when laid in argillaceous earth they never became rusty, but that in a calcareous soil they were rapidly destroyed ; he therefore proposed that all pipes should be surrounded with clay. lit the plan is effective, he certainly deserves his pension well. —Building News.

PARIS IMPROVEZEIY Demolition, reconstruction, and embellishment in . the capital and its environs seem to proceed at an accelerated rate, and, under existing circumstances, it is natural that it should do so—as one leg of mutton is said to drive down another, so may one house or one street be said to pull down another, and as the demand for employment has naturally grown with the thing upon which it lives, there appears no chance of the improvements or alterations of Paris coming to an end until every inconvenient street and almost every inelegant house is done away with orreplaced. For the builder and architect Paris is at present, and is likely to remain for some time, the widest area for the study of demolition and construction, and it presents the oppor tunity of seeing what to emulate and what to avoid in almost an equal degree. If a student desire to see rapid and solid building, exquisitely worked details, with archi tecture of every kind, good, bad, and indifferent, let him come to Paris, for here he will find all those features on a grand scale. Notre Dame begins to issue forth from its long endured coat of hoarding and dirt, and to exhibit its beauties in something like a satisfactory manner. The scaffolding is all removed from the choir and transept, the former has been paved with marble, the stalls have just been placed in position, and the grand altar, which was described in the Building News some time since, now exhibits all its beau ties, and all its glaring defects too, to the public eye. The next thing to be taken in hand, or rather to be com pleted, for all the preparations have been made, is the com plete restoration of the great rose window in the western front. This window, which was repaired in 1726, threat ened to fall to pieces; a new window has, therefore, been made, which is an exact fee-simile of the old one, and the preparations are now being made for substituting the one for the other. The magnitude and delicacy of the operation will be evident to all practical men when it is stated that the window in question is 42ft. in diameter, and that the whole façade itself is in a most ticklish condition. This atter will, of course, be thoroughly restored at the same This facade was entirely the work of Jean de C h elles. time. The plumbers are now at work placing a crenellated ornament along the ridge of the roof. The Cathedral of St. Denis is also proceeding rapidly to completion, and presents many interesting features. The original building, which was erected on the site of the present cathedral, was raised over the tomb of St. Denis before the invasion of the Franks ; this is spoken of by Gregory of Tours, who bears witness to its magnificence—a term which must of course be accepted conditionally. This original church was reconstructed by St. Genevieve, the Patroness of Paris; and again by Dagobert, with increased splendour, about the year 630. In the next century Pepin commenced the rebuilding of it once more, and took great pains to obliterate all recollection of the work of the Mero vingian prince ; the work commenced by Pepin was finished by Charlemagne in 775. Again in the twelfth century the church was entirely rebuilt by the Abbe Segur, who, how ever, preserVed beneath the choir the greater portion of the crypt of the Carlovingian edifice. The abbe's work was ill-executed, and in the following century it threatened to fall to pieces. St. Louis caused nearly the whole of the choir, the nave, and the transepts, to be rebuilt; in fact, nothing of the former structure remained but the facade, the chapels around the choir, and a door at the base of the north transept. - • At the time of the revolution, the Cathedral of St. Denis was terribly mutilated, and, although Napoleon twice started the idea of. its renovation, nothing was done till 1816, when all kinds of strange alterations were made with out any evident reason, and continued till 1846, when they were stopped by the dangerous condition of •ne of the towers, which was obliged to be pulled down. In the latter year, the work was taken in hand in a methodical manner by M. Viollet-le-Duc, then appointed architect of the cathedral; the remains which presented any artistic value were carefully classified, and the repairs were enabled to be carried out according to the original designs of Percier and others, in the Gaignieres collection in the Bodleian Library at Oxford. . . During the recent repairs the crypt of the Carlovingian kings was brought to light, surrounded by portions of the Abbe Segues construction, including the monuments, pavement, and chapels in the apsis. The painted windows of these chapels are said to be, with the single exception of those of Notre Dame de Chartres, the only examples that France possesses of the 12th century ; and the composition of the subjects, and the harmony of the colours, aro con sidered far superior to anything executed in the succeeding period. The present Emperor determined to make St. Denis the burial. place of his dynasty ; the choir and transept have been restored to their original state, the foundations have been underpinned, the floors have been reduced to the ancient level, after having been most capriciously altered, no one seems to know why, and shortly the tombs of the kings will be all re-established. The Napoleon Mausoleum has bees excavated under the nave and immediately west of the Carlovingian crypt, in which are placed the remains of Louis XVI., Marie Antoinette the Duke de Berry, on of his children, the aunt of Louis XVI., the Prince de n Conde, and Louis XVIII. The resting place of the new dynasty is not very large, but it is divided into a main body and two side aisles, formed by solid monolithic.pillars supporting the vaultings of the roof ; at the eastern end of the central aisle is a small altar, or rather the place for it, which will be illuminated by a floor-light placed in the rear of the great altar in the choir. The entrance to the Mausoleum will be closed with large flag-stones. In making the excavations for this new crypt a number of stone tombs of the Merovingian period were discovered, but they contained, it is said, nothing of any interest; a few amber beads, the remains of other ornaments and of cloth ing, and a little dust, were all that had not perished of the kings or heroes of that remote period. These tombs were all under the floor of the apsis of the Church of Dagobert, of which the extent was quite distinctly traced ; on the walls of the basement were found some remnants of coarse paint- ing, representing drapery. The edifice built by Dagobert was constructed entirely out of the materials of the pre- vious Gallo •Roman Basilica, so that the present cathedral includes the vestiges of five successive edifices—one of the third or fourth century, that of Dagobert, of Charlemagne, of the Abbe Segur, and of Saint Louis. The facade of the church is in a very bad condition, and it is not considered safe to re-erect the spire which used to crown the northern tower ; a plan for the complete re= storation of the whole of this portion of the building is now under consideration; the project is to build two towers to flank the grand entrance, which into be pierced with three doers, richly decorated with sculpture, and se parated by two prominent socles supporting four equestrian Statues, in memory of those sovereigns who retired from the cares of power to the silence and solitude of the cloisters of the Abbey of Saint Denis. The most remarkable edifice now under the hands of Pa risian workmen is the new Russian church, which is being erected in the Rue de la Croix, near the park of Monceau'. This novel structure is in the style of the Kremlin— namely, semi-Byzantine and semi-Tartar.. It consists of five towers grouped together, that in the centre being much higher than the other four. Each of the towers is crowned with the well-known pOinted dome or rather bulb of copper gilt, surmounted by a cross also gilt, and from which depend chains to correspond. The door in the northern facade is under a bold porch with four pillars and a hemispherical dome, and approached by 12 handsome steps. Over the porch is the - pediment of the door, and in POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Dec. 24. LAMBETH.—THE AWKWARD CASE OP MRS. CRAGGS AND THE CABMAN.,7-011 Monday, after the night charges were disposed of, William Walker, a cab driver, but who appeared to be a respectable man, at least so far as appearance went, of his class, and who stood remanded from that day week, on a charge of robbing Mrs. Mary Anne Craggs, the wife of a respectable man, of her gold watch and chain, a gold pencil case, and other property, in a common brothel, was again placed at the bar before Mr. Elliott, for final examination. Mr. Humphreys, jun., attended for the prosecu tion; and Mr. Lewis, jun., for the defence ; and at the time the case was called on the court was much crowded by persons anxious to hear the proceedings. It will be recollected from the particulars given on the last examination, that the prosecutrix on the evening of Thursday week, left her home in the Holland-road, Brixton, to attend a lecture at the Assembly-rooms at the Horns Tavern, Ken nington-cross, and according to her own admission was not sober at the time. After the lecture, and while she was still labouring under the effects•of what she had previously taken, she proceeded to the White Hart public-house, a short distance from the Horns Tavern, and there had sixpenny worth of brandy and cold water. The testimony of the barman who served, her there went to show that, though she had evidently been drinking before, she was not drunk, and had then her watch and chain ; but her own testimony was that after tak ing this brandy she lost all consciousness, and had no recollection of what passed until she found her self in a bedroom not her own in the company of a man, but whether tae prisoner was that person she did not know, and could not say. The next that was seen of her was seated in the prisoner's Han som cab, which was close to the White Hart, and she gave the prisoner some money to get a pint of old ale, which another cabman bgought from ,the White Hart. The prisoner then got into the cab with her, and both were driven to a brothel in the neighbourhood where they remained for two hours. They were next driven to the residence of the pro secutrix in Holland-road, where the prisoner re mained with her in the back parlour for two hours more, and immediately after, he was gone, at four o'clock in the morning, Mrs. Craggs' servant observed that her mistress was with out her watch, and a search was made, and it was then discovered that the watch, chain, pencil-case, and purse, which contained a sovereign and 9s. 6d. in silver when the•prosecutrix left home, were all gone. Information of the cir cumstance was given to the police on the following morning, and the prisoner, it appeared, had kept out of the way until the following Sunday evening he gave himself up to the police at the Brixton station. Inspector M'Coy, of the P division, who had charge of the case, was in attendance, and, in reply to a question from Mr. Elliott, said he had no fur ther evidence to offer. Mr. Lewis said ha had not been present at the last examination, and requested that the evidence might be read over, when he had some questions to put to Mrs. Craggs, the prosecutrix, and other wit nesses. Mr. Elliot said he could not allow such a viola tion of the usual practice as having the case re opened. On the last examination the prisoner was provided with legal assistance, and every opportu nity had been given to his advocate to cross-exa- mine the witnesses as he thought proper. The case, in point of fact, had only been adjourned to give time to trace the property, and the adjourn ment therefore, being for a particular purpose, he (Mr. Elliott) could not permit a re-opening; but if there were any question which Mr. Lewis wished to put, he might do so through him (the magis trate). after T h-ewdheipehosimtiro.n Humphreyss were here r a e d a dss d r o e ve e r d and called for a com m itt a l o f the prisoner for trial, nn the e court, te s °' on a charge of steali ng th e watc h an d o th er pro perty belonging t o t h e prosecu t r i x . H e was sorry to admit th a t appearances t o ld muc h a g ainst his client, yet he was enabled to say that her con duct, unfortunate as it was, was still capable of ex planation. Her family had been most respectable, and she was the wife of a gentleman holding a most respectable position as a merchant, but had, unfor tunately, latterly lost a mother to whom she was attached, and since that time gave way to habits of intoxication, which Mr. Craggs, her husband, did his utmost to check ; but as he travelled on his own business, and was from home for several days throughout the week, he had not 'the opportunity he could wish, and her intemperance led her into the situation of being taken advantage of by the prisoner, and robbed in the mannEr ehat had been described. With respect to the robbery there could not be the slightest doubt; nor could there be the slightest doubt also, that the prisoner was the per son by whom it had been committed, as he was the only person who had been in the company of Mrs Craggs from the time she was seen with it until the time it had been missed ; and , no `doubt— Mr. Lewis—No doubt, sir, the case before you is one requiring explanation, as my friend Mr. Hum phreys says, and also perhaps investigation ; bat inasmuch as it is one that it is no credit to the parties concerned in it, I should have thought they would be but too happy to get rid of it. Mr. Craggs (somewhat excited) —Certainly not. Never, sir. Mr. Lewis-- 7 Well, I really thought you would have been but too willing to do so. It has been stated by the prosecutrix that she was so drunk as , , 101 , 4D . STAMPED, sr• to lose all consciousness after having the brandy at the public-house ; but we find that in the brothel she found fault with the strength of the tea, and spoke rationally to the brothel keeper, and she must therefore have known what she was about. It has been said that no suspicion attached to the brothel keeper ; but you, sir, from your experience, must know that robberies of extensive character take place at brothels ; and, I may ask, may not the proseeutrix have left the property behind her at this place? Mr. Elliott—According to the evidence of the keeper of this house, and I have no right to dis believe her, when she first entered the room where the parties were, she saw the watch and chain placed on a table beside which the prisoner stood, the proseeutrix being then on the bed. She then left the room to procure some spirits, and on her return the property was not on the table, as she had left it. Mr. Lewis—Well, sir; drunk as she was, might not this woman have taken up the property, car ' ried it in her bands into the street, and dropped it there, or somebody taken it from her. The prisoner, though filling a humble situation, is a respectable man, and down to the present affair has conducted himself with honesty and propriety, and I say there is nothing,beyond immorality, perhaps,which is not consistent with his perfect innocence. Would he, I would ask, have accompanied the prosecutrix to her n itcs o ehto w foni tsp n house, nhpeeecrdtioothnn e property rurwe with vhvv th leaving oh e hours o eurt risk lhdteh i o ebi er there, onh,t being oehi s t r r ather ta: te en hhk e ealprdba parlour, la h yovb e uebh r r e s eg, d e aow r nt vhdoraeui had dr of e do f this drunken woman as s oon as possible, and have and the question for you, sir , to con s id er is this, whether any , jury i s likely to convict in such a case. I think no jury will be found to do so, and I hope that, for the sake of public morality, you stop the case here, and discharge my client. Mr. Elliott said the ease was one that must go before a jury, and the prisoner was fully committed for trial. ENGLAND IN THE OLDEN TIME. (From Dean Hook's "Lives of the Archbishops of Canter- bu 6.") Few persons seem to be aware of the amount of bfpuer fusion io s or p ne e r to i hf t e y enjoyed t ihnevaßsirounisohf by ta our hnedpaue ance s torsisT Ang lo- Sa x on e arly rt a ahc f e t e e ws r , ha t on h l de e s. of the southern part of our island was at that time under cultivation ; and William of Poictiers speaks of England, at a later period, as the storehouse of Ceres. Rye, barley, wheat, and oats were grown, and the orchards were prolific with cider. The grapes were acid, and the wine was coarse ; but Smithfield and Holborn were vineyards from which the cellars of London were filled, while the other provinces regaled on the vines of Gloucestershire and Essex. The hum of bees was heard in various parts of the country, and their whereabouts is indi cated by the name of "Mells." Honey was a valu able article of produce and commerce, being manu factured into sugar and mead. There appears to have been a wild pony natural to the island, and English horses were in demand in the foreign mar kets. Although they were never much employed by the Anglo-Saxons in military service, we may presume that field sports required the maintenazice of steeds, and fox hunting was popular not only with the thanes, but, as we learn from Alcuin, with the clergy and monks of Northumbria. The popu lation of the country being small, there were still in existence large hunting fields, from which the wild animals paid tribute to the tables of the luxurious, while, beneath forests of oak and beech, the serfs and slaves were watching the swine which formed the animal food of the masses. In the plains were herds of cattle to supply the large demand for leather, when leather was required not only for shoes and breeches, but for gloves, with which even the common people were obliged to cover their hands before they ventured to pene trate the thick entangled wood. Eels, in abun dance, supplied the Midland districts, and fisheries were established on all the coasts. On the coast resided the merchants, whose ,social position was as high as it is at the present time. The successful trader had a right to the rank and privileges of a thane, and the laws made for the encouragement of commerce was esteemed. The bisis of all our im provements in the manufacturing districts at the prevent time is iron. Whenever a manufacturer or mechanic gets an idea into his head, he goes to the implement maker to help him to carry it out. And even in the Anglo-Saxon times, though for a diffe rent reason, iron was the basis of wealth. It was an litre when every man's hand was against his brother ; ;hen all Europe was one vast battle-field ; when in the most retired district none but an ecclesiastic, and in many districts not even he, could go unarmed. Swords, battle axes, 1, alberds, javelins, spears, arrow heads, all kinds of missile weapons, in addition to defensive armour, head-pieces, greaves, and shields, were everywhere in demand, and the possession of iron was better than the possession of gold. There can be little doubt that it was this, in addition to the surface gold, that rendered Britain such a valuable colony of ancient Rome. Pennant, in his History of Wales, adduces authentic evidence to prove tl*ethe Romans esta blished ironworks in the Forest of 'Dean in Glou• cestershire. Iron foundries existed also in Sussex and Kent at a very early period. The ironworks in the northern and midland counties were not opened until centuries after these had been in operation. The ironworks in Sussex were not abandoned till 1776, and then not from want of ore, of which we still possess an ample supply, and oisuperior qua lity, but because, in the expense of smelting it, it was impossible to compete with the coalfields in the north. In the counties of Sussex and Kent, timber or wood was almost indigenous, and hence in the Anglo-Saxon times, when wood alone was employed in furnaces, the value of coal being scarcely known the southern counties were what the mining dis tricts of the north have subsequently become. To these sources of wealth must be added the plentiful supply of flint ; flint being employed instead, of iron in many of the missiles of war, though requir ing the use of iron to shape and point it. * • * • In our allusions to the courts Ethelbald and Offa, we have seen the decay of morals among public men ; and the evil example set by the great was the more injurious, from the conformity of the royal criminals to the church, and the readiness evinced by worldly ecclesiastics to account their benefac tions as compensating for their crimes. From the court, corruption descended to the monasteries. It had been the wisdom of Theodorus to convert the chief monasteries into schools of learning, and these institutions were, for a season, a bless ing to the land; but when zeal for learning de clined, they became very much what the colleges would be in our present universities, if they were no longer places of education. From the begin ning, the monasteries of England had with few exceptions been free, and in their corruption they became lax. With laymen chiefly for their abbots, they became at first agreeable country houses, re plete with all the appliances of learning and plea sure, but afterwards they gradually . degenerated into abodes of idleness and dissipation. In centives to evil are sure to succeed rapidly on the removal of intellectual restraints or religious excitement. The demand for monastic reform was everywhere on the increase among that portion of the community which was still earnest in the cause of vital Christianity and the religion of the heart. It was first raised by Bede ; it was repeated by and in Alcuin ; it was urged in the time of Wnlfred ; but among the evils of the time, the inactivity of the of character oneprimate,of t the e a g n r d e , a i t n e cons e quence , st.

It will be remem— bered that when, on the examination into the case of Mr. Macdone ifficial applied a number of insulting epithets to the English travelling on thei Continent, the English residents at Bonn signed a protest in which the conduct of M. Moller was spoken of in terms not more severe than were warranted by the provocation, but too free for the institutions which prevail even in the Wienish Pro vinces o f P russ i a. Th e inculpated functionary at once proceeded against our countrymen for improper 14 nguage uttered against him while tie was it? .dis charge of his public duties. What was thought o.f . conduct in the first trial by the Prussian Govern ment is now well known to the world. Although the creed at Berlin is that an official can do no wrong, yet the spirit with which the matter was taken up in England and remonstrances of the British Legation induced the authorities to inquire into the matter, and the result was that the Procura tor Moller was reprimanded and told to be more guarded in his language for the future. However, this could not prevent him carryi ng on his prosecu tion against the British residents at Bonn. They had in their protest used language which might be construed into a contempt of Court, and had in particular charged the prosecutor with a "cowardly" attack on the English nation. So Mr. Perry, w h o drew up the document, and all who signed it, have been brought to trial, and the process is only just over. Sentence has been pronounced, and Mr. Perry has been condemned to pay 100 thalers, or undergo five weeks' imprisonment in default. Three other gentlemen are Rued 25 thalers each, with nine days' imprisonment in default. The magistrates engaged in this second investi gation are acknowledged to have behaved with all due courtesy ; and, no doubt, they were glad to have an excuse for passing a comparatively lenient sentence. But against any sentence at all we must protest in the name of justjoe and common sense. Whatever may be the technical merits of the case, there is no doubt that Moller showed so much ne gligence in his duty and so bad a spirit in his re marks that any criticism on him is fully justified. In the first place, if an officer of State is to be pri vileged in the performance of his duty, he is bound to confine himself strictly to the matter in hand. Moller might have inveighed against the defen dant ; he might have used all his influence, even unfairly, to obtain a conviction, without justifying the criticisms of the English residents, for he would not have wandered from the strict limits of his duty. But when, without cause, merely to gratify his spleen againstthe English whomhe saw around, he declaimed in an insulting tone and with the coarsest language against a friendly people, he will be thought by all unprejudiced men to have for feited the privilege of his office. The case, accord ingly, against the English defendants is so pecu liar, the circumstances are so exceptional, the pro vocation was so great, that an acquittal was the only proper solution of the affair. M. Moller should have been told that the comments were not made on him in the execution of his duty, but in doing something which was totally unconnect e d with his duty—that is, giving way to his temper and polluting a court of justice by an unseemly harangue. But, bad though the conduct of the State Procu rator would have been even were Mr. Macdonald guilty, it is now proved to have been far worso. If even the original defendant had behaved dis gracefully, if he had been in his own person all that Moller described the English people to be, still the Procurator's language would have been indefensible. He would have had no business to generalize, and to cast on a community the blame due to one man. But it is now conclusively shown that Mr. Macdonald's account of the affair was perfectly correct, that the places were taken by him, that he merely touched Dr. Parrow's wife .when she entered the carriage, and indicated to her that this was the case ; that the lady's hus band immediately began to storm, and called an inspector, who, without giving any opportunity for explanation, ordered Mr. Macdonald out of the car riage, and that Mr. Macdonald was morally, if not according to police regulations, justified in refusing to leave, It also appears that this very Dr Parrow persuaded a lady who might have given evidence to absent herself, and by these means aided in pro curing an unjust conviction. To the Procurator Moller it, fell to make the preliminary examination —it was his duty to sift the matter, and it was owing to his negligence and stupidity that Mr. Macdonald was brought into court at all. After blundering in this first inquiry, and coming to the c•rnclusion that Mr. Macdonald was in the wrongr he takes upon himself most zealously the part a prosecutor, and launches out in the manner so often described. More than this, he, in accordance with the usages lately exposed in the police trial at Ber lin, kept Mr. Macdonald for six days in v dirty prison, when the whole matter ought to have been s tiled in at most 48 hours. When all these delin queneis are put together, there is certainly suffi cient reason that Moler should be prevented from wreaking his vengeance on onr countrymen for ' merely protesting against his most offensive acts. It is now for the Prussian Government to say whe ther this sentence shall be carried into effect, and also to decide whether some compensation is not due to Mr. Macdonald for the scandalous treatment which he has undergone. We sincerely trust that our Minister at Berlin will not lose sight of this affair. Foreigners are unable to understand the importance which Englishmen attach to the per sonal treatment of their countrymen abroad, and how the Bonn Railway case excites them as much as any question of high policy, But our feeling is the right one. Individual security is more essential even than national greatness. The sum of a com munity's happiness is made up of the happiness of its members, and every household among the upper and middle classes of the United Kingdom will find their safety and pleasure in foreign travel diminished if the Bonn Railway case ends in the victory of an uncourtly official. • PLYMOUTH, Dec. 25.—1 t is very unusual for snow to remain long on the ground in this vicinity, but for nearly a week past the town and the neighbouring country have been covered. 'The weather is, however, very calm. The chief interruption to the regularity of the trains on the South Devon, Cornwall, and Tavistock Railroads has been caused by an increase of traffic exceeding the ordinary ave rage of the season. RACES.—Wesee how much will has been expended to extinguish the Jew, in vain. Look at, the unpalatable conclusions of Knox, in his " Fragment of Races"--a rash and unsatisfactory writer, but charged with pungent and unforgetable truths. " Every race has ifs own habitat." " Detach a colony from the race, and it deteriorates in the crab." See the shades of the picture. The German and Irish millions, like the negro, have a great deal of guano in their destiny.
