In the new edition of ' Self-Preservation,' facts of para mount utility are brought together—facts appealing . to the ' prudence of all who are suffering from affections which in volve the enfeeblement and ultimate loss of those powers without which man forfeits the dignity of nature, and sinks to the most pitiable depths of physical and moral degradation. In cases where the vital essences have been weakened by the Influences of tropical climates, by pernicious habits, indiscri minate excesses, improper diet, hardship, or by iniudicious treatment, the means of cure adopted by the author, in con junction with the application of Local Galvanism, have gene rally been found successful, even in cases where recovery had been pronounced imossible.

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

Just Published, price is., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps, QECOND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS ki FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated om various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi tioner of twenty years' standing. Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and Nervous energies are identical; hence, that when the latter fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre gularities of any- kind, the nervo u s s y s t em h as b ecome debili tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a condition little short of total prostration, then by the action of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE.

STAMPED, SD. the sagacity of Lord John Russelll, and possessing, if you compare him with others of his order, consi derable sympathy with the rights of the people__ (hear, hear)—l say I cannot but believe that he would at least stand out of the way, and be no obstacle to the adoption of the ballot in any bill which may receive the sanction of Parlia ment. (Cheers.) Then there is another section of the house, of which I may, perhaps, be accepted in some degree as the repre sentative on this occasion—(cheers)—inen who are not tied up by aristocratic associations,or aristocratic predjudices, or aristocratic honest fears—are there many such— (laughter) ?—men who, having lived all their lives among the people, find out that they are not nearly-such horrible creatures as thosepersons suppose who live in an atmosphere so elevated that they seldom see and never touch the people. (Cheers.) There is such a section as that, and I have a con fident belief that one of the results of a general election will be to render that section more nume• rous in the 'coming Parliament, more united, and more earnest. (Cheers.) The election which is coming is one of vast importance. The constituencies are the court of appeal,—a court, I may say, not very fairly selected for us, but such a court as we have for the adjudication of this great question. What the constituencies should endeavour to do is to return real men—(hear, hear)—not men who know so little of these questions that they dare say nothing, and that if they get into the House of Commons they will be content with doing nothing —(laughter)—but men who have decided opinions. Let us have, wherever you can, real contests in all the constituencies where there is doubt. (Cheers.) " Contests and not compromises" should be the order of the day. (Cheers.) What you really want is, that the House of Commons should be a more distinct house, and if you had it so you would find your leading statesmen in the house would be more " pronounced." They would find their opi nions somewhere. They would say something for the question against it. The two parties would be in array against each other, and that to which the country gave its confidence and its voice would in the end carry the day in Parliament. (Cheers.) We hear on all sides that Parliament is a chaos; that parties are broken up ; that leaders are not leaders, and that followers won't follow; that for many years past we have had no Government whatever ; that you have had parties of place holders and Cabinet Ministers, but no real Govern ment. Since the Government of Sir R. Peel all have been feeble Governments, as everybody knows. They have carried on a precarious and tottering existence, and after a duration of one, two, or three years, they have come to an unpitied and some of them to an ignominious ter mination. (Cheers.) Now, how happens this ? During the whole of this time opinion in this coun try has been advancing, growing, gathering strength. manifesting itself in a thousand directions, but you have seen very little of this in the House of Commons. The House of Commons is no fair maui festation or representation of the great Liberal opinion that has grown up within the last few years in every portion of the United Kingdom. There is little more power in Parliament than there was many years ago. The parties were just as evenly balanced. A Tory Government at this moment is defeated by a majority under 40 ; a few years ago, I think it was at the end of 1852, it was defeated by a majority under 20. Does any man in his senses believe for a moment that this is a fair representation of the difference which exists be tween the Tory and the Liberal party throughout the United Kingdom ? We all know perfectly well that the Liberals count at least four to one of the population of the United Kingdom, and excluding as many as you like on the ground of ignorance or intemperance, or as knowing nothing of politics, or on any other ground, still I say the House of Com mons as it now divides is no fair or adequate repre sentation of the division which exists in the coun try.between the minority of the Tories and the vast majority of the Liberals. (Loud cheers.) This is the reason that you have no steady, stable, execu tive Government. Parties in the house are so balanced that any little accident throws a majority from one side to the other ; any little mistake that a Government makes' jeopardises it. Then you have a resignation, a dissolution, a new Parliament, a new Government, and precisely the same state of things as near as possible ; and then people tell us that our Parliamentary system, after all, is not so good as we thought it was—that it is "on its trial," and that it looks very much like coming to a failure. (Hear, hear.) But give us a really fair representation—(loud cheers)—put the House of Commons in accord with the country ; give to all your populations, your vast wealth, your vast in dustry, .your growing intelligence, your gathering power, in all your great seats of industry—give these the power in the House of Commons that fairly belongs to them, and then I will engage that you will have a Government that can keep its place, and that can do some good things for the country • (Cheers.) Mr. Bright proceeded to say that the constituencies of the kingdom ought now so far as they were free, intelligent, and virtuous, to speak out their opinions in language which could not be mistaken on this great and vital question. Especially he urged on the constituency of South Lancashire, in view of the approaching contest for that division, not to reverse the verdict they had given over and over again. (Cheers.) Mr. Bright continued : We have no proposal from Mr. Egerton or his friends, or from Lord Derby's Government, to increase the power in the House of Commons of this county (Lancashire) in any degree in propor tion to the vast increaseof population and of taxable , property which we have amongst us. We are' everything in the country—people to work, people to pay, to provide exports, to pay for imports, and to contribute to the £70,000,000 of our taxes—all this is boasted of continually ; but we are always told something or other, which is unexplained or unexplainable, requires us to be content with half our representation, and that the members for the small boroughs and nomination counties should have the imposition of taxes upon us and the ex penditure of the revenue. (Cheers.) I do not believe that the small boroughs are half so anxious to pre vent their disfranchisement as it is pretended. (Hear, hear.) I have the best reason to believe that, in a great number of them, the Liberal party is quite willing that the small boroughs should be disfranchised. An election with 200 or 300 electors is a scene of oppression, bullying, cajolery, corrup tion, buyiing and selling, of a manful struggle for freedom, often unsuccessful, and followed by partial or general degradation. (Cheers.) The question now is, have the constituencies sufficient self-re spect, sufficient belief in their own intelligence, virtue, and power, and can they trust their coun trymen sufficiently to elect a government which shall wisely govern this nation, or will they be contented for ever that their government shall be in the hands of a class who have profited for gene rations past by the constant increase of taxes and revenue, and whose family interests, as I solemnly believe, are in many cases opposed to the true in terests of the nation? After some concluding observations Mr. Bright resumed his seat amid great cheering. The meeting shortly afterwards terminated. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF DR. It M. &LOVER WITH CHLOROFORM. Much painful sensation has been created in medical circles during the past few days, owing to its becoming known that Dr. Robert Mortimer Glover, late Physician to the Royal Free Hos pital, and a talented member of the profession, in which he was highly respected and esteemed, had committed self-destruction under very peculiar and determined circumstances. It appears that the deceased gentleman, who resided a short distance out of town, had for some time past, and since his retirement from the Royal Free Hospital, betrayed marked symptoms of mental derangement, both by his habits and his peculiarity of manner. On the day of his melancholy end a professional acquaint ance was paying him a visit, when as they sat con versing, the friend observed the unfortunate doctor getting gradually into a semi-excited and half-stupid state, which, as he kept leaving the room for a few minutes at a time during the course of their con versation, he took to be the result of drink, but at length the hapless gentleman, upon returning to the apartment for the last time, sat down on the sofa, and immediately became insensible. His friend at once gave the alarm, and rendered what professional aid he could, but the doctor ceased to breatt egue int n h t e course of a few minutes. From a subsequent examination it turned out that the deceased had destroyed his life by gradually drinking a large quantity of chloroform, which he kept in the house for experimental purposes. The deceased had made chloroform a particular study, and besides b e ing a skilful physician, he wrote several able medical and scientific treatises. He became a Licentiate of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh in 1837, andtook his degree as Physician in the same city in 1840. He was also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and other learned societies. An inquest is to be held on the unfortu nate gentleman. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 13, 1859.

GENTLEMEN, At the last election the har monious call to your representatives was dependent on the voluntary withdrawal of Mr. Salt. If it is in my power to contribute anything of the same kind now, turn and turn about is fair. To those who see in the Dissolution nothing but the struggle of rival parties for being the authors of a Bill which shall postpone for twenty years the great public want, which is the Ballot, it must be agreeable to find a Leviathan employer of the Working Classes coming forward to advocate their just claims. Meanwhile your old representative is as able and willing as ever, to Serve in any other quarter where he may be wanted. The question is only one of time. An eminent statesman, almost in the words of Marlborough, has pronounced "They must go off--They must go off 1" Yours very truly, T. PERRONET THOMPSON.

BRIGHT AT MANCHESTER A large and influential meeting of the Lancashire Reformers' Union was held yesterday afternoon in the assembly room of the Free Trade Hall. The meeting having been addressed by Mr. George Wilson (who presided), Sir Elijah Armitage, Mr. Henry Ashworth, Mr. Thomas Porter, Mr. Thos. Barnes, and Mr. Parkhurst, Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON read an address from the Lancashire Reformers' Union to the constitu encies of the United Kingdom, urging the general adoption of Mr. Bright's Reform Bill. The address was unanimously agreed to, and also a resolution thanking Mr Bright for having laid his proposals before the country, at the same time pledging the meeting to every practicable assist ance in carrying them into law. Mr. BRIGHT, who was received with protracted cheering, addressed the meeting for the space of three-quarters of an hour. In the course of his speech the hon. gentleman said,—We are assembled at a time of intense interest in :public affairs, and what is done at this and similar meetings, and by our countrymen generally within the next few weeks, may have the greatest possible effect upon the career and condition of this country for years, and it may be even for generations to come. (Hear, hear.) I wish one could, by some accurate gauge, ascertain what it is that the people understand by the ques tion of Parliamentary Reform, and how much they think they ought to have, and are anxious to ob tain. (Cheers.) I suspect the result would very much disappoint some persons who are satisfying themselves with the notion that this question can be put an end to either by no concession at ali or by some concession so small that it is not worth offering and not Nyorth accepting. (Hear, hear.) I have proceeded in the discussion of this question in the belief that there is throughout the whole of the middle and working classes of the country a posi tive and unchangeable conviction that the Parlia ment, as it now exists, is not careful of the people's money—(cheers)--and that it does not, either with regard to legislation for home affairs or in matters of foreign policy, on many occasions adequately or truly represent the public mind. (Hear.) We have lately had an opportunity of seeing a good deal of what may be called the inner life of Parliament with regard to this question. We have had from one party in Parliament, which boasts that it is the largest party (the party opposite being disunited), an actual Cabinet proposition. I will not stay even for a moment to describe it. (Laughter.) Its cha racter was so bad and its features so ugly, that not its enemies only, but those who should have been its best friends, were anxious that it should be put under ground as speedily as possible—(renewed laughter)—but we know from that bill what its -authors mean when they talk of having no objec tion to Parliamentary Reform. I have heard Mr. Disraeli, when he was leader of the Opposition, during the last few years, on several occasions say, " You have no monopoly of attachment to reform ; we have no objection to reform ; we are in favour of a removal and a correction of the anomalies of the Reform Act ;" but it is now manifest that " the anomalies of the Reform Act" were the features of that measure which gave to the people some portion of political power; and that the object of removing and correcting anomalies was to do that which this bill attempted to do—not to give you a more popu lar representation, but to mar whatever you have now obtained, and, in fact, as Lord Derby said, no longer since than 1852 or 1854 I think, to stem what he calls the tide of democracy which is threatening to submerge the country. . (Laughter and cheers.) This Lord Derby—(laughter)---who by virtue, not of Parliamentnry majorities, but of. Parliamentary accidents, is for the time Prime Minister of England ; he stands up in the House of Lords and makes a speech some columns in length, - in which he treats this question as he treats the people, with absolute contempt—(hear, hear)—and every man who stands forward, either to instruct the people or to represent them on this great ques tion, he treats as if he were an enemy to the throne, and to the constitution, and to the people. (Hear.) We know perfectly well that there is no monopoly of loyalty in his (Lord Derby's) order. (Hear, hear.) We know perfectly well that the time may come when his order and ours may come in closer con flict. (Hear.) If his alone were left in these islands where would. be the British nation ? (Prolonged cheering.) Our order may be left here and left here alone—(" hear," and cheers)—and the British na tion may be as great and as free as it has ever been in the past ages of our history. (Renewed cheering.) I don't want to promote discussions of questions like these, but if Lord Derby chooses from that eminence which he occupies and from the floor of the House of Lords to cast his taunts upon us—(hear)—upon our order—(hear)—upon the people in the United Kingdom, let me tell him from this floor that there is a power greater than his power. (Immense cheering.) On the question of Reform there has been a sort of mystification ever since the bill was withdrawn on the part of the Government; at one time we are told that they are free from their pledges—that it is no longer a question in the r wallet. (Laughter.) At another time we are told that notwithstanding all that has passed, they don't consider themselves in the least degree shut out from dealing with it in future. Well, I am willing to admit that I don't want anything whatsoever from that manufactory again, (Hear, hear, and laughter.) I should just as soon think of going for my confectionery to that un happy individual who sold the celebrated Bradford lozenges—(prolonged laughter)—as I should think of going to Lord Derby's manufactory for a Reform Bill. (Cheers.) However, crossing to the other side of the house, we come to an eminent and aged statesman, who is leader of a small section in the house, and who was latterly Prime Minister. We have had from Lord Palmerston some expressions as to his views on this question, and I don't think they are of a nature to create much confidence in him as a Parliamentary Reform leader. (Hear.) I understand that he does not think that a £lO qualification for the counties is safe or desirable, and that he is not willing to give his approval to a proposition made in another quarter for the lower ing of the borough franchise to persons occupying houses of the value of £6 rental per annum. I have never had, as you know, any kind of faith in the politics of Lord Palmerston. (Hear.) At the same time, on this question I believe he may be said to be on the whole consistent, and he has as fair a right, of course, to his view and to act upon it as ourselves. Therefore I don't in the least blame him for any opinion he has expressed on this sub ject ; but I say that if the people of England look to him for any real concession on this question, un less he change his mind very considerably, I think they are disposed to lean on what will prove a broken reed. (Hear, hear.) Travelling a little further we come to another statesman not less emi nent, and on this question much more eminent than Lord Palmerston. (Hear, hear.) Lord John Rus sell only a fewnights ago made a brief explanation of the sort of idea which was floating in his mind as to the kind of measure which he would think it desirable for a Government to propose, and I pre sume if he were Minister he would be willing to propose. He said he was for a £lO qualification in the counties. I think in the last bill he proposed that at least half of that value (and I have reason to believe that he would agree to something more than half) should consist of a dwelling-house, in order to make it more difficult to create fictitious votes. With regard to the boroughs he has made what I conceive to be a very great improvement in his proposition, for, instead of fixing upon any rated value (which is a very uncertain and unsatis factory test on all occasions, because it varies so much), he is willing to give to every man who lives in a house of the value of £6 rental per annum a vote for the borough in which he may live. This is not the franchise which I was ready to propose, but still it would be very unfair to depreciate the offer that has been made, and to say that it is not very . much in advance of every offer that has been previously made by any statesman in the position of Lord John Russell. (Hear, hear.) If such a bill as that were introduced it would of course be open for every man who thought that a further extension was desirable to propose such change as he thought proper—for example, the clauses that I have introduced into m 7 bill, or any other clauses that might carry out his view, and I should be ex tremely glad if a majority of Parliament would agree to some further extension. At the same time L I think it would be unjust to Lord John Russell, and unfair to the question, if we were to persuade ourselves, or to endeavour to persuade others, that , that proposition would not be an infinitely , better proposition for the country than half a hundred of those fancy franchises about which so much has been said. (Cheers.) There is a considerable sec tion of the House of Commons who are very much disposed to follow the leading of Lord John Rus s sell with regard to this question. I am sorry to say he has differed from them on the question of the ballot. Judging, however, from the language of his address to the city , of London, I cannot but believe that if the constituencies of the kingdom were to add to the present ballot vote in the house 50 or 60 more votes, a man of the experience and AYES - 99.

J. Emmerson and a respectable jury. Evidence confirmatory of the account given yes terday having been taken, Mr. Henry Curling, surgeon, spoke to the state of the body, having made a post-mortem examina tion. There was a wound under the left breast, about 18 inch in length, and the left hand was missing. The forehead, face, &c., were rubbed, from the body having been was hd against the rocks. The eyes were open, and the pupils con tracted. The edges of the wound under the nipple were everted, showing that the wound had been inflicted durine , life. The left h an d was cut off at the wrist. There was a second cut, but only par tially through the skin. Four fingers were de tached from the hand, and the ring finger cut off between the first and second joint. On the front surface of the hand there was a deep cut, but not quite through the skin of the back of the hand. There had been three sharp cuts on the hand, as was shown when the fingers were placed in position. The wound in the left breast penetrated the chest, the left lung, and the left ventricle of the heart. That wound caused instant death. The stomach was healthy, and full of food recently taken. The wound in the breast might have been made by the deceased himself, from its position. There were no signs of the deceased having been drugged. The inquiry was then adjourned for a week, to enable the police, if possible, to obtain further par ticulars of this brutal occurrence. MURDER AND RIOT AT CARDIFF. On Monday evening last, a scefle of fearful dis turbance and excitement arose in a suburb of Car diff called Newtown, from the death of a woman named Elizabeth Donovan, by the hands of her husband, Michael Donovan. The man had been drinking at a public-house known as the Forester's Arms, whither the unfortunate woman proceeded to fetch him home. While there some altercation appears to have taken place, and blows passed be tween the deceased and the wife of the landlord ) named Matthews. A police-constable was called in by the latter, and the house was cleared. The un fortunate couple retired to their own dwelling, near at hand, whence, shortly afterwards, cries of "Murder" were heard. A little girl ran into the street screaming that " her father was killing her mother," and on police-constable 35 running up to the spot, he met Donovan at the door, who gave himself up at once, stating that he had killed his wife. On entering the house the poor woman was found breathing, but expired in less than half an hour, apparently from the effects of a blow or a fall. In a short time a large crowd had collected, princi• pally composed of Irish inhabitants of the neighbourhood, who were so much excited by exaggerated reports of what had occurred in the public-house, that the police deemed it advisable to remove the landlady with the prisoner in a cab to the central station-house for safety. They had not left long before a determined attack was made upon the Foresters' Arms, resulting in the complete demolition of the doors and windows,, and great part of the furni ture. A strong detachment of police succeeded with difficulty in clearing the premises, but could not disperse the mob, who continued for hours to shout and discharge missiles at the house and adjoining premises, understood to be the property of the landlord, Matthews, who had but two days previously been held to bail for assaulting the editor of a provincial journal. On Tuesday morning the crowd had not dis persed, and a number of police were on the spot, fearing a renewal of the disturbances. The Foresters' Arms and three adjoining houses pre ' sent a lamentable wreck, there not being a vestige of even the frames of the windows and doors, the fragments being mixed up with broken furniture, in sad confusion. The unfortunate woman has left two children. The coroner's jury had been summoned for Tuesday afternoon. ~~ .~~~ 7, ~~~~z~ THE 2 4 'Y, - A telegraphic message arrived at Sheerneas Monday, directing all men working in the do yard factories under Mr. George . Blaxiand, to vita from five o'clock in the morning to eight at night until further orders. Also for the shipwrights, • joiners, &c., to work from five to seven, and to commence on Monday morning next. Great exer tions are being made to get all ships now under fitment completed with all possible despatch. The screw steam transport Per Severance, Cern minder E. R. Power, which left Portsmouth on Sunday with troops for the Cape of Good . Hope, touching at Milford and Queenstown, came in con tact off the Lizard, on Monday evening, at ten o'clock, w ith th e b arque A va , o f Scar borough, Captain Graham, from Cardiff, with coal for Gib raltar. Captain Graham states that at the time the Lizard bore northwest by north four leagues dis tant. Wind about north. The barque was on the port tack, and was struck by the steamer on the starboard side, near the main rigging,.and went down bow foremost within ten minutes. The crew were saved by boats from the Perseverance. The steamer's bowsprit is gone, and her head rails are damaged. Orders were received at Plymouth on Monday to discontinue loading provisions on board the steam transport Urgent, Commander M'Donald, _which is to be prepared immediately for the embarkation of troops. We understand that orders have been received-at Portsmouth to bring forward the advanced ships with all despatch. The hands employed upon them, in all departments, are at work upon extra time until they are ready for the pendant. The men employed ,fitting ships and getting on . board machinery at Devonport are ordered to work overtime. The steam store sloop Rhadamanthus, Mr. Sturdee, master, sailed from Plymouth on Monday for Pembroke, with Mr. Biddlecombe, master attendant of Keyham yard, and a party of 160 men, including riggers and seamen from the Royal Ade laide, to navigate the Revenge to Plymouth. The gunboat Hind, tender to th 2 Russell, 60, at Falmouth, arrived at Plymouth on Monday. The brig Nputilus was towed on Monday from Hamoaze into Plymouth Sound. The paddlewheel steam troop ship Dee, Master Commander Thomas C. Pullen, from Woolwich, with boilers, &c., for Keyham, arrived at Plymouth yesterday (Tuesday). The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—John Rose, surgeon, to the Eagle; James Stevenson, acting-assistant sur geon, to the Spy ; William S. Fisher, acting-assis tant surgeon, to the James Watt; John L. Palmer, assistant surgeon, to the James Watt; Benjamin Crabbe, assistant surgeon, to the Impregnable ; and Archibald D. Johnston, clerk, to the Impregnable. THE ARAfY. The Ist Battalion 15th Foot, stationed at Ports mouth, have received orders to hold themselves in readiness to proceed from that garrison ,to the Channel Islands, six companies to Jersey, and four companies to Alderney. - - An order has arrived at Sheerness to send allthe Artillery now in barracks there to the Channel Islands. The Northamptonshire and Mordester Militia are ordered to garrison the fort for dock yard and other duties. A detachment of invalid Artillery left Sheerness yesterday, under charge of Captain Wragge, for Eastbourne. An order has been received at Sheerness to re port immediately the exact extent , of barrack ac commodation that can be given for troops in the old and new barracks. Captain Norton, the inventor of the liquid fire rifle shell and other destructive missiles, completed some experiments yesterday at Brompton Barracks, Chatham, in order to demonstrate the destructive nature o f his liquid fire shells, and when enclosed in anything beside metal shells; the missile experimented with yesterday being a kind of liquid firebrand, for the purpose of throw ing into buildings and setting them on fire, blowing up powder magazines and —am munition waggons, and setting fire to the ships of an enemy. This new missile invented by Captain Norton, is composed of a wooden tube, or case, the kind used in the experiments yesterday being made of pine, its length measuring about six inches, or three diameters and a half of the bore of the rifle used for throwing it at the object intended to be set on fire. Previously to the experiments Captain Norton explained that this kind of shell possesses a very important advantage over other kinds, inas much as every part of the case is inflammable, which of course is not the case with iron shells, although charged with the liquid fire. In order to show how easily the sells of a ship might be set on fire with a missile of this description, Captain Norton had a quantity of canvas sacking suspended at the end of the range, the material being of the same substance as that from which the sails of ves sels are made. Captain Norton then took one of the wooden cases, or brands, which he charged with a very small portion of his liquid fire, and then fired it from the rifle he generally uses in these experiments. At the instant the brand struck the canvas a smouldering smoke was perceptible, and directly afterwards the sacking burst out into flames, the shell part, which had imbibed the liquid fire, also burning, the whole remaining on fire for about 20 minutes. In ordinary shells the metal takes no part in the conflagration, but in this new missile the shell as well as its charge becomes in cendiary, and all is fire. There can be no doubt, r after the success which attended the experiments yesterday, that rifle shells charged with liquid fire are far more efficient for blowing up am munition waggons in the field than shell s' charged with the ordinary explosive compounds hitherto used, because the liquid fire-shells never fail to set fire to timber or other inflammable sub , stances, whereas the other shells are more uncertain in their effects. The spherical wooden brands used by Captain Norton may be saturated with the liquid fire, and then discharged from ordinary smooth bore cannon. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. YORK SPRING MEETING-TUESDAY.
