We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular.

THE DISCIPLINE OF THE NAVY ' A " Naval Officer," in aletter to a contemporary says : We are thoroughly awakened to the necessity of raising the navy to the highest state of efficiency, and many admirable steps have been taken in the right direction, by establishing training ships for our naval cadets and boys, by providing a reserve of naval volunteers, &c.; but in one most important point there has evidently been of late a falling off, instead of improvement. I speak of the interior discipline of our men-of war. During tie past year many cases of most serious breaches of discipline have occurred in our ships---a thing formerly of very rare occurrence, and almost unheard-of in the French navy, where far more attention is paid to the interior discipline of their ships than with us. It is most necessary that strict discipline be main tained and implicit obedience paid to all lawful or ders in a man-of-war. Without this no ship can be in an efficient state. The day is now past for the preservation of discipline by terror, and the indis criminate use of the lash. The question is—How is the present state of things to be improved without any increase of severity in the treatment of our sailors ? All commanding officers in the navy are well aware that the interior discipline of a man-of-war depends in a very great measure on the good con duct and example of the petty officers, and also on possessing a thoroughly active and efficient police. It is on these poiiiti—Vie position and treatment of the petty officers and police—that great altera tion and improvement are necessary. One reason for the falling off of discipline is, doubtless, the very insufficient number of junior officers, in consequence of which the petty officers are obliged to perform the duties formerly intrusted to ' mates or midshipmen, and, unless they are in a position to command the respect and obedience of the men, it is evident the duties they have to super intend will not be performed as efficiently as under the eye of an officer. In the army the non-commissioned officers are in valuable in the preservation of discipline. They are looked up to and treated with great respect by the men. They perform many responsible duties, which in the navy can only be intrusted to officers, and how rarely do we hear of a private quarrelling with or striking a non-commissioned officer, or of a sergeant disgracing himself by drunkenness or breaking leave ? Now, turn to the first-class petty officers in the navy, who, as regards rank and pay, are in the same position as sergeants in the army. It is most important that they should be a body of men in whom great confidence can be placed by their officers; that they should be men who can be thoroughly trusted to take charge of a deck, a boat's crew, or party of men on shore without an officer; that implicit obedience should be paid them by the men ; that they should as a body endeavour, by every means in their power, to preserve a high tone and good feeling among their shipmates ; and that, especially in case of any ill feeling or discon tent among the crew, they should at once step forward and make it known to their commanding officer. All executive officers in the navy know that, as a body, the first-class petty officers do not answer to the above description ; that it is very difficult to find among them men who can be thoroughly trusted with the command of a party of men without an officer; and that drunkenness, fighting, and especially breaking leave, are far more prevalent among them than among the non-commissioned officers of the marines or army. Why should this difference exist between the conduct of non-commissioned officers in the sister services ? The reason is this :—ln the army the sergeants know and rightly value their position ; they feel that they are treated with the consideration due to their position ; that most responsible duties are intrusted to them ; and that much is expected from them, By messing and living to gether good feeling and dependence on each other are promoted, and they are prevented from being biassed by the opinions and conversation of their subordinates. In the navy there is no distinct system laid down for the treatment of the petty officers. In some ships they are treated with more consideration and granted more privileges than in others. Instead of livingind messing together, they are scattered by ones and twos amon g th e different messes of 15 and 20 men, and are thus far more liable to iden tify themselves with the faelings and opinions of their messmates. They are not made to feel the responsible nature of their position, and that in a great measure the interior discipline depends upon their good conduct and the example they set to the ship's company. I propose that fixed rules should be laid down by the Admiralty for a uniform system to be observed in every ship with regard to the treatment of the first-class petty officers. Let them mess together ; grant them leave whenever it can be done, without regard to the stated periods of giving general leave to the men ; but never allow any petty officer to be received on board from leave, unless sober. En force a strict obedien ce t o all lawful orders given by them as to those given by officers. In fact, let them and their subordinates know and feel their position as petty officers is one of great responsi bility, that they will always receive the strongest support in the performance of their duties, and that to them you look for the greatest assistance in the maintenance of tie interior discipline on board. Place them in their proper position, and you will soon find them as trustworthy and (Aden t in the performance of their duties as the sergeants in the army. It is, of course, necessary that a responsible man should he placed in each mess, but the numbers of second-class petty officers and leading seamen are amply sufficient for this purpose. S The police of a line-of-battle ship consists o f one f n t d h ly e , po w il i c t e h in re t g h a e rdto the most inefficient navy. stale " : master-at-arms and three ship's corporals. The master-at-arms, or head of the police, ought to be a most honest, trustworthy man, and possessed of great nerve and tact, for he is placed in a most responsible and unpopular position. He is intrusted with the supervision of the entire ship's company. All complaints from the men pass through him; he keeps a record of every crime committed and of every punishment inflicted in his ship. He ought to be thoroughly acquainted with the character of every man on board. In fact, so multifarious are his duties, and so highly important a point is it to secure a thoroughly trustworthy and efficient man for the position, that no pains or expense should be spared by the Admiralty to establish and secure the services of a sufficient body of thoroughly effi cient men, as heads of police. What is the fact at present ? From the small pay (L4l) a-year, and anomalous position of a master-at-arms, it is most difficult to get men thoroughly equal to the task, and commanding officers are frequently obliged to take men whom shortly after leaving port they dis cover to be worthless and untrustworthy. The ship's corporals, who are generally old pensioned marines and sailors, are, as a rule, most inefficient in the performance of their numerous duties. I propose that a permanent corps of police be at once established in the following manner :—Let every master-at-arms at present serving afloat who can produce a certificate of three years' good and trustworthy conduct from his captain be at once raised to the position and pay of a warrant-officer. It is found that in small ships where masters-at arms aro not allowed, the sergeants of marines are very efficient in this position. I would therefore allow a limited number of sergeants who can pro duce a certificate of three years' good conduct afloat to volunteer for the position of master-at-arms. Let them serve for one year acting, and if at the expi ration of that time they produce a certificate of good conduct and efficiency from their captain, let them be placed on the permanent list. As to the ship!' corporals, retain all those under 40 years of ago with a good character, and pension off the rest. F ill ill) the necessary vacancies by a ll ow i ng a limite d num ber of corporals in the m arines w ith three privates with five years') goo d conduct cer tificate an volunteer for the p os iti o n, and w h e n once the list of master-at-arms is raised to its proper strength let all future vacancies be filled up by selection from the let her staff of police be at once appoi nted d to her, i n years' ( and an t d o the ship's same corporals. manner as W warrant an a tship officers his commissionedseamen gunners are at present.

You would then posses s a th oroug hl y efficient and trustworthy police, w hi c h wou ld b e e r s hailed as a very great boon by all officers in the navy. TUE RIGHT HON. M. T. BAINES.-.WO awls Mercury) are happy to state that Mr. Baines's health has considerably improved since last Saturday. On that day a favourable change took place, and as the improvement has continued daily, hopes are now entertained of his recovery. 21.1. E NA P.Y. The Mersey, 40, screw, Capt. H. Caldwell, C. 8., will test her speed at the measured mile in Stoke's Bay this morning, with Griffith's patent propeller, should the weather prove favourable. The Ariadne's trial of speed at the measured mile, with her altered screw, was yesterday postponed, owing to the rough state of the weather, it having blown a gale from S.S.W. the previous night and the forepart of yesterday. Towards noon the wea ther moderated. The Melpomene drove for some distance during the gale, but in the morning got up steam and took up a safer position. The Princess Royal, 91, screw, is having her boilers taken out in the steam basin at Portsmouth. They are to undergo a thorough repair. The ship is to go into the dock vacated by the Nelson, 91, screw, in the old fitting basin, should that vessel be undocked during the next spring. It is stated, however, that since the order was first given it has been discovered that the admission of water to the basin in the present state of the alterations will considerably retard the works (the three docks being each lengthened, and the bottom of the basin being cleared from a portion of the mud collected there), and it is hoped the basin will not be opened until the following spring, when the injury it would then cause would be comparatively trifling. Comamnder H. J. Raby (V.C.) was -yesterday commissioned by the Lords of the Admiralty to transfer his command from the Weser to the Alecto sloop, which latter vessel will be taken up on Monday by the master rigger, and is ordered to be completed without delay. Mr. Francis H. May, master of her Majesty's screw steam guardship of Coastguard Hogue, 60, at Greenock, Capt. John Moore, C. 8., yesterday ar rived at Woolwich, in command of 46_se4kmen and stokers, for the purpose of taking ihargeofilielron 'paddlewheel steamer Harpy, newly --fitted out, and repairing for service as tender to the Hogue, under orders to navigate her round to the Clyde. Two hundred ablebodied continuous service sea men, paid off and granted leave of absence from the steamships Conqueror, Princess Royal, and Centurion, arrived at Woolwich yesterday at the expiration of their allotted leave of absence, and were entered on the books of the receiving ship Fisgard. Fifty of the men were despatched forth with for service in the flagship Nile, at Queens.. town, and 50 were to be forwarded to-day to Ports mouth. Notices have been posted at Chatham Dockyard that seamen and marine pensioners are required for the Castor, 36, and Brilliant, 20, which have been commissioned at Chatham for training ships for the Naval Coast Volunteers. Complimentary salutes were yesterday exchanged between the Prussian frigate Arcona, bearing the broad pendant of Commodore Sundewald, and the Victory, 104, bearing the flag of the Commander-in Chief at Portsmouth, Admiral W. Bowles; C. 8., on the occasion of the gallant commodore assuming his present rank. The examination of candidates for shipwrights' apprentices at Portsmouth dockyard will take place on the 24th and 25th inst. ; and that for factory ap prentices en the 26th and 27th inst.

It is because the various classes of society have a good understanding with one another. Ido not believe in any man who sets one class against another. For me, I consider myself to belong to no dais, and think my honourable friends on my right and left will understand me when I say so. (Cheers and laughter). But this I will say, that if you would put your finger upon any one thing which dis tinguishes this coun t ry f rom any oth er, it is that the great, powerful, and rich, consider themselves bound in dutyto educate, to guide, and to provide for the poor. What have we seen ? In the days of our ancestors, I mean those who have had forefathers —(laughter)—there was not that intercourse between the rich and the poor that exists now. They had not then any intercourse together. But now what do we see ? 'We see young noblemen, gentle men of what is called genteel birth, associating with and going and lecturing to working men. That, my friends, is a great sign of the times. Nothing gives me more pleasure than to see Lord So-and-So lecturing to working men, nothing more pleasing than to see young Mr. Buxton going as he did on a recent occasion to argue with working men, and that too on the subject of strikes. That was a courageous thing, but it was not Mr. Buxton's courage only, it was a sign of the times. Do you think that he would have done that in the time of our grandfathers ? I think not. He would have turned upon his heels, or rather not him but his shadowy forefathers, and said, " Those fellows, they must be kept down." But now it is thought fit , to. argue the matter, and you endeavour to go through their minds, not through their bodies, and the great object is to lead men to the right by force of rea son, not by means of brute force; My friend the chairman said he was overpowered by the presence of tines members of parliament on the platform. Well, do you think you world have had three members of parliament a hundred years ago ? (Laughter.) I mean if such a meeting could have been formed. Not a bit of it. (Renewed laughter.) We live in great times, and Middlesborough is one of the wonders of the age in which we live. I have heard something about your growth. Well, Middles borough is a great fact ; but I do not know what you will say when I tell you that I never heard of it until my friend, your secretary, wrote to me. Well, then, as I said Middlesborough, is a sign of the times. We go rapidly a-head, and what our grandfathers would have thought unworthy of them their grandsons do, and they find that they take the right method of governing mankind. We now see to the educating of men, and training them in the right way by building mechanics' institutes. This much marks the change in public opinion upon that subject. There are here two knights of two different shires to do you honour on this occasion ; as for me, I am -but a simple borough man. (Laughter.) And besides that, they are your na tural leaders, the one being the member for your own division of Yorkshire, and the other for the ad joining county. But when 1 speak of leaders do not misunderstand me. Ido not mean that they govern you by making you swear as they swear—not one word of it. The gentlemen on my left hand come here ; they employ their capital and their know ledge, and this benefits the great body of their countrymen. They do not ask you to obey them, but to promote your own interests, and by so doing you next promote the interests of your country. I believe that the great body of those whom I am ad dressing are working men; My belief is that the time will come when the working men of England will see that their interest lies in being instructed ; that they will make the me chanics' institute their college, and that every town may have its Oxford and its great professors, its teachers and lecturers, those men who endea vour to guide the intellect and create feelings with in your minds, arising from the instruction you re ceive, and that enjoyment you receive in this way will be very different from that which you receive from the beer barrel. (Cheers.) I believe that that time is coming, and nothing gives me greater hopes of it than the scenes I have seen to-day. Well, truly, as Mr. Cayley has said, it has been my lot to travel in the United States, where towns spring up like mushrooms. The sun goes down over a wide extended plain which to-morrow, when it arises, is covered with a town. Well, within 10, I am told within 25 years, there was only one single house here, the site of which was pointed out to me to-day, and now you have a population of nearly 20,000 inhabitants. You have within your reach the means of that great increase of power and in fluence—l mean that most hard and toughest mate rial, namely, iron. You have iron on the one side, and coal on the other, and you only want energy between the two, and you will be a great people. (Cheers.) How are you to get this ? Why, by for swearing all the base deteriorating pleasures that arise from every sensual enjoyment. If you will t p h u e t i f n ai s t t r h in uct on mechanics' which is institutes, the re co m i you ni c w a e i t lseek d l you may not raise yourselves in material wealth, but you may gain the means of making yourselves happy. Now there are remarkable instances in our own times of what may be done by intellectual energy. I can point out one notable example, viz., Geo. Stephenson. (Applause.) That man, by means of his own intellectual power, raised himself to great wealth and distinction. Well, but it is impossible for the great body of working men to attain to his position. But there is another man I would wish to point out to you, who is not so well known as Stephenson in England, but he is one whose example is well worthy of imitating—l mean Hugh Miller. (Cheers.) That man was originally a stonemason, and by his own energy he made him self one of the greatest geologists of the present time. Unfortunately, both are now dead. Stephen son' has gone to his long home, so has Hugh Miller ; and though you may not attain the position of Ste phenson, that which was attained by Hugh. Miller is within the reach of you all. Every man may make himself an instructed man, and may make in tellectual enjoyment the great end of his life; and he is the example I would place before you. Let those lessons I have been endeavouring to inculcate sink deep into the heart s o f the working men of England. Now, sir, I think I have well nigh tired you. (No, no.) I would ask you to believe me when I say that there is no habit productive of so much real enjoyment as the habit, acquired in early youth, of reading. Let your object, then, be to get a few works for yourself, and then seek to in crease the library in connection with the institute. I have lived a pretty long life, and I have gone through some struggles in my time, but my great pleasure has been retiring from the world and get ting my book. You may not always be on good terms with a friend, but a book never quarrels with you, never turns sulky; you open the book, and flnd:its calm white face always ready to give you instruc tion. No matter what happens, it is always the same, and therefore I would say to the worki ng man, always strive to f a ll in with a good book. Do not look right and left for something to amuse you so long as you can go to the library. If you have not a book of your own, you can get one from the library of the mechanics' institute, and you can take it home and read it to your family. By so doing you will promote your own happiness and take more and more pleasure in reading. I would, therefore, say that those who have endeavoured to gather together the means of raising a mechanics' institute at this early period of the history of your town have been the greatest benefactors of the town. It will be the means of your entertainment, and will be a great means of education: Depend upon it there is nothing by which you can do so much good to the country, no way in which you can so much benefit the race, as by dis seminating amongst the men among whom you live intellectual enjoyment; and, therefore, I congratu-' late you upon tke rise and progress of your mechanics' institute, and my hearty prayer is, that it may continue t o p ros p er as i t h as done.

ROEBUC. EsBOROUGH, . MIDDLESBOROUGH, THURSDAY. Last evening a large meeting was held in the Odd Fellows' Hall, in this town, to commemorate the opening of the New Mechanics' nail. E. S. Cayley, Esq., M.P., and Henry Pease, Esq., M.P., briefly addressed the meeting. The Chairman next introduced Mr. Roebuck, who was received with loud and prolonged applause. The cheering having subsided, he said—Mr. Chair man, ladies, and gentlemen, as I have to speak to a resolution, I will first ask the secretary to be kind enough to read it to you for me. The SECRETARY (Mr. W. Taylor) then read the resolution, which was as follows :—" That this meeting rejoices in the success which has attended the erection of the Middlesborough Mechanics' Hall, and still encourages the committee to endeavour to make the institution keep pace with the progres sive tendencies of the age, and invites all classes to give it their cordial support." (Cheers.) Mr. ROEBUCK then said,—Mr. Chairman, ladies, and gentlemen, —1 know what a Yorkshire welcome is, for the fact of the matter is, I ma almost a York shireman myself.. But we have now met together for a great purpose —we are met to celebrate the en deavour of a great portion of our countrymen to forward their own education and the educa tion of those around them. A greater object could not be proposed to any man than that ; and allow me to tell you, and I think I have some experience in the matter, that the object you wish to attain will go further to promote your own individual happiness than any other which you can attempt to pursue: There is this difference between intellectual and mere sensual pleasure—and recollect these are things you should set before you—the pleasure derived from the senses gets nauseating, but that which is derived from the intellectual never palls. I put the sensual plea sure first, because it serves only for the present, and pleasure is not the result hereafter; but that is not the case with intellectual pleasure. 'What I would wish to point out, then, particularly is, that you have within' our own grasp the means of promot ing independently your own happiness. Some time ago I recollect reading the account of the meeting of a mechanics' institute, at which a great man pre sided and distributed prizes —I speak with un feigned sincerity—l mean Mr. Disraeli. (Hear.) I was both puzzled and struck by an observation of his upon mechanics' institutes; a subject upon which, I thought, no man endowed as lie was would have touched upon. He said the great object which working men ought to have in view in connection with these institutes was to raise themselves above their own condition. Now, my opinion of a me chanics' institute is somewhat different. My opinion of a mechanics' institute is, that it gives you intelligence and intellectual knowledge, which is not intended to raise you above your condition, but make you happy in it. (Cheers.) If you ask yourselves the difference between these two objects —it is illimitable. Any one man who hss raised himself from his former humble condition by intel lect and by knowledge is one among many millions. If you give knowledge to millions you make them more happy; and therefore your great object should be, not to raise men above their condition, but to give them the means of being happy in that sphere in which they move; and that object, I believe, is attained by mechanics' institutes. You weanjmen from that which makes them, I was going to say, worse than beasts, but that would be a libel upon creation, for animals never get drunk; and there fore I say I use that phrase, it weans them from the pothouse. That is ono of the objects which mechanics' institutes ought to have in view. We want to raise men in their individual condition, and make eachman the means of his own happiness by making him the meansef his own enjoyment. Now, then, there are two views you may take which will render them a great benefit to society. The one is, that they will make the man in his individual sphere a happy man, and will make him, as a member of society, a more deserving member. How, then ' can they do that Why, as T said be fore, by helping him to be the means o f hi s own instruction. If he goes night after night to the mechanics' institute, what does he gain ? He gains knowledge, lie gains instruction, and weans him self from indolence and from sensual indulgence out of doors. He makes himself a good father, a good son, and a good member of society. By what means does he do that ? Why, by the instruction which he gains within these walls. Perhaps there are few who have known more, or who have had greater experience in that class of enjoyment, than myself, because I have it always, and de sire no other. I would say this, that intellectual enjoyment is that which is most comfortable, and from which mankind can derive more enjoy ment than from any other. Two men go abroad. The one man in walking about sees nothing. He looks before him, wants to get to the end of his journey, and sees nothing, and when he gets home he speaks of it being a very dull road. But here is another man goes out on the same journey, and he is a student of geology, botany, or some of the other sciences ; and every step he takes teaches him something; he learns a great deal, and every step he takes is the means of enjoyment. Will some one follow him home ? I follow them both. The first goes to his house and says, " This is a very dull place; that was a very dull journey I had, and I think I will go to the pothouse," and to the pot house he goes. The other mai goes home and takes down his book ; he finds his wife at home, his cottage is neat, everything is prepared for his reception, and in short, ho finds home to be a place where he can enjoy himself. He takes down his book, and induces his wife to come and listen to him. Ido that, and why should not every working man ? My w if e and daughter listen to me, and we are mutually benefited. Labour does not prevent a man from attaining intellectual power and intellectual knowledge, even though we work 12 hours a day ; and my honourable friends behind me will bear me out when I say that we often work a great deal more—(cheers and laugh ter)—and yet we have time to instruct ourselves. I do not believe that there is that labour now in this town of Middlesborough, that labour in Eng land, to unfit a man at the end of his day's labour for intellectual enjoyment. I go to bed often early in the morning, and when I get up there are letters from all parts of England, Europe, aid the world. These I have all to go through, and I have also to read the daily journals to see what is going on in the world. Then, when Parliament is sitting. I have often to goon committees, where I have to sit until four o'clock, when 1 go home to dinner, and after that often it until two o'clock in the morning for the sake of honour. (Applause.) And yet you would think very ill of me if I did not instruct myself. Well, then, I say to you working men, do not talk to me about your labour, for mine is equal to yours. I remem ber receiving a deputation of working men some years ago at Nottingham; they introduced them selves as working men. I said, " Well, I am a working man myself." The spokesman seemed astonished, but I added, " the only difference be tween us is that you make ribbons for women's bonnets, and I make books for the inside of their heads." (Cheers and laughter.) Is there, my friends, anything in a working man's life to prevent him from acquiring knowledge—the means of in tellectual enjoyment, in preference to physical, which would render him amenable to the great ob jects of justice, knowledge, and benevolence, and, make him different from the mere brute, sunk in the depths of sensual enjoyment —a drunkard, care less of the right, and unworthy to pursue it. 11 1 ell, then; air, why do I take the trouble to come a dis tance of between 200 and 300 miles to Middles borough ? Why, because I think that there is no cause so great as that of the education of my coun trymen. (Cheers.) They have been pleased to place me in a high position. lam their represen tative in Parliament ; but nothing that I can do there will be a full discharge of the duties imposed upon me if I do not seek to promote that which would conduce to the education of my countrymen. Therefore, when you, sir, spoke to-day of your hum ble efforts, and thanked me for coming to aid you, I said, " Your efforts are not humble, and do not overrate my comi ng d own, because there is no duty so great to a man who has been placed in my posi tion as that of promoting the education of the peo ple." I have great faith in my countrymen, and when Mr. Cayley spoke of my being a true-hearted Englishman, ho never spoke a truer word. (Ap plause.) It has been my fate to have a wandering foot ; I have gone over the world, I have seen men in various climates and in various conditions of life, and I have returned home a more fortified and stern Englishman than ever. I do not believe in those men who calumniate England. Depend upon it, we are a light to mankind. It is not a vain-glorious feeling that makes me so,but a strongthorough-going experience which makes me say that in England we have that which every man ought to look up to. We are governed in a way that no other country in the world is governed, and we set mankind an ex ample such as no other people set on the face of the THE ARMY. Major-General Eyre, in command of the garrison at Chatham, has decided on practisiug the entire force under his command in field operations on a considerably enlarged scale, in order to make the officers and troops acquainted with the military tactics usually performed by an attacking force. With this view the general has issued orders for the whole force of the garrison, which numbers several thousand men and includes three depot battalions of infantry, the corps of Royal and Indian Engi neers, the Royal Marine Light Infantry, and the Royal Engineer train, to be held in readiness for a sudden march_into the country for a few miles, when the whole body will compose an army in ad vance on the garrison, so as to prevent the enemy marching into or lea v i ng th e t own. Pi ckets and skirmishers will be thrown out, and all the roads from the side of the Medway and across the coun try for several miles will be occupied by the several corps, who will be prepared to defend them in the event of an enemy approaching in that direction. The line of observation will extend upwards of four miles, when the troops will commence their march on the garrison by the several roads leading to the town, in order that no interference may take place with the movements of the separate corps: The various corps are to go out alone for practice before the entire force is called out, the Royal Engineers having been directed to commence operations to-day These manoeuvres will be repeated by the General at frequent intervals in order that the troops way be made perfect in this part of their military duties. Recruits for th e R o y a l Artill er y have arrived at head-quarters, Woolwich, since Christmas, in un usual numbers, and, with the reinforcements which have been created by the enrolment of a large pro portion of the discharged troops from India, who have arrived from Gravesend, Blackwell, and Lon don, the depot Brigade has been augmented to an extraordinary degree, the 7th and Bth batteries of Field Artillery having attained to upwards of 400 effective men each. The excavations for the foundation of the me morial which is about to be erected at the eastern entrance to Brompton Barracks, Chatham, to the memory of those officers and men of the Royal Engineers who fell in the Crimea, have been commenced by Messrs. Mansfield and Son, Gray's-inn-lane, London, the builders ; but in consequence of the lofty and massive character of the proposed structure it is probable that six months will be occupied in its erection. The site selected by the Government is the piece of ground between the Hut Barracks and the Brompton Barracks, to which latter building the memorial will form an appropriate entrance, forming, as it will, the ex treme boundary of the noble parade -ground. The architect is Mr. Digby Wyatt, who has prepared the drawings and plans, and under whose direction the memorial will be erected. The designs, which have received the approval of the Government, include a large central arch between 20 and 30 feet in height, on each side of which will be a smaller arch, ;upwards of 12 feet in height and of pro tionationate width. The general form of the structure will be that of a parallelopipedon, nearly 40 feet in height, 44 feet in width, and 10 feet in depth. The whole will be surmounted by an elaborately built attic, the apandrils, pede stals, and their accessories having carvings of various designs in relief. It will be built from Portland stone, with white marble tablets and facings, on which will be engraved the names of every officer, non-commissioned officer and man of the Royal Engineers who fell during the Russian war. On the architrave will be engraved the motto of the Royal Engineers, " Übique quo As et yloria ducunt." The large building which has been fitted up at the Royal Marine Barracks, Chatham, under the authority of the Lords of the Admiralty, for thea trical performances by the officers and men and for other purposes of entertainment, is now completed, and arrangements have bcen made for the opening performance to take place on Wednesday evening next. The stage is fitted with appropriate scenery, mechanical contrivances, and, in fact, every requisite, and the services of some ac tresses have been engag ed to take the female characters in the pieces to be played. The amateur performance on tha opening night will consist of the pieces " Done on Both Sides' and " Lend me Five Shillings." Major-Gen. Sir R. Dacres, Commandant of Wool wich Garrison, having been absent on leave sines Christmas, has returned to Wollwich and resumed his official duties.

RELIC FROM A WRECK.—TRAMORE.—A very curious and ♦aluable relic of the ill-fated Sea Hors., wrecked in Traraore Bay in 1816, has been discovered. It consists of a musket, marked D 10, in a perfect state of preservation, after being under water for 44 years, and belonged, no doubt, to the gallant 59th Regiment, who, after passing the perils of the Peninsular wars and the Battle of Waterloo, were wrecked in Tramore Bay, when over 300 perished. The stock is in perfect order; the lock and barrel are encrusted with shells, sand, &c. It is a great curiosity, and is at pre sent in the possession of Captain Fry, of the Trainor* Hotel. It was found at low-water mark by a man named Kelly. THE VOLUNTARY PARTY AND THE APPROACHING SESSION.—The executive of the Liberation Society have issued cards of invitation to their leading supporters to a soiree, to take place at the London Coffee-house next Thurs day evening ; the object of the meeting being, as we under • stand, to put out a rog►ramme of the society's intended movements during the Parliamentary session► now about to commence. From this it may be assumed that the execu tive have net been scared by the " Church Defiance" move ment which has been organised within the lastfew months ; and but a short time will elapse before the assailants of the society's policy will have an opportunity of ascertaining how far they have succeeded in inducing a reactionary feeling in the House of Commons in respect to church rates, endowed schools, and other pressing melesiastied matters.

The Proprietors beg most respectfully to call the attention of the trade, noblemen, elervy, dm, and the public in general, to their extensive stock of Choice Wines, of rare vintages. BURROWS and Co. are not disposed to comment upon the purity of their wine's, which la daily most laudably ackuoW ledzed by the public and emine n t me di ca l men ot' all coun tries, as the increasing patronage of the .highest families in the lend is a sufficient guarantee. They beg to call particular attention to their pure Tonic Wines, as being so valuable to Invalids and persons of weak stomachs. A sample case, containinz three full-sized wine bottles, will be forwarded to any address on receipt of P. 0.0. for 6s. 6d : , or a dozen for 245. It is a well-known fact that impure and adult •ated wines are the greatest foes to health, producing acidity in the stomach, and debilitating the digestive organs, while pure wines will accelerate the digestive powers, invigorating, strengthening, and bracing the nervous system. Their Tonic Wine is admitted to be most essential to in valids, both old and young, and should never be absent from the homes of the weak and sickly. Its properties are duly acknowledged and appreciated by the leading men of the faculty, both at home and abroad. To prevect imposition each bottle is sealed with the name of the firm. All orders to be made payable to HENRY BURROWS. THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.—Every -I- person having an interest in domestic or farm animals should obtain a supply of this celebrated and economical food, which will prove invaluable during the approaching season. For keeping horses in good condition it is unequal led. Pigs fatten with surprising rapidity upon it, and their desh increases in flavour and value. Cowkeepers will find great advantage in the increased quantity and bnproved qua lity of the milk during its use. All animals are benefited by it. A pamphlet on this interesting subject, accompanied by Testimonials from the principal Nobility, Gentry, and Agri mlturists, forwarded on application. In casks containing 148 feeds (measures enclosed), price 505., carriage paid to any Railway Station in the United Kingdom. Post-office orders piyable to Joseph Thorley, 77, Newgate-street, London.

Five of the great Spring Handicaps having now been well circulated, it may w i t h propriety be said that the pro liminary business, as regards the programme for the sport ing campaign of 1860, has been almost accomplished, and every lover of turf sports has no doubt ere this devoted same time in comparing the various imposts. Yet, with all this, very little briskness is discernible in the market. The Chester Cup, as a matter of course, claims almost exclusive attention—indeed, we have not seen or heard of any attempt to bet upon any of the other handicaps. Longrange still holds the position of first favourite, at 25 to 1 offered; the next in demand being his stable companion Viatka, and although 1000 to 30, and 500 to 15 were laid against her, so stiff were the commissions in her favour, that 30 to 1 could not have been obtained at the close to money, and we shall not be sirprised in a very short time to see her much in advance of Longrange in the market. Many other candidates, as will be seen by our rather lengthy list of quotations, were introduced, none of which, however, received that amount of support to justify special notice. " " For the Derby attention was confined to outsiders. Cramond was in some force at any advance upon 40 to 1, although in one instance 1000 to 20 was laid against him ; but from subsequent offers it was tolerably evident that those were over the market odds. Restos was nibbled at at 40 to 1, and five points more became obtainable against Paleface. There has been a standing commission in the market for several days to take any tempting advance upon 40 to 1 about Lanchester. The Liverpool Steeplechase seems to be entirely shelved until the weights are published. CLOSING PRICES.
