" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

THE MASSACRES IN SYRIA. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Will you oblige the committee by publish ing the following letter, received yesterday, from Mr. Moore, her Britannic Majesty's Consul-General for Syria, together with the reply of the hon. sec retary despatched this day ?—I am, sir, your obe dient servant, C. R. EDMONDS, Secy. British Syrian Relief Fund, 12, York-buildings, Adelphi, W.C., Sept 6. British Consulate-General in Syria, Beyrout, Aug. 14. Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 27th ult., acquainting me with the forma tion of the British Syrian Relief Committee, and authoris ing me to draw for £l,OOO for the object in view. In reply, I beg to state that I feel highly gratified in having been designated as the local channel for carrying out the benevolent intention of the committee, at whose dis po _ ,sal I place my best services. The extent of the misery and distress calling for immediate relief may be judged of when I state that in Beyrout alone there are at present upwards of 10,000 destitute refugees, the vast majority of whom are entirely dependent upon charity for food, shelter, and clothing. Of these 5,000 have been hitherto assisted by the Beyrout Committee ; 2,000 more from Damascus are to be added to the number now that funds have been received ; while an additional caravan of between 3,000 and 4,000 will arrive to-morrow from that city. The incalculable good that the liberal donations from England will accomplish may be readily conceived. With regard to the wish expressed, that I should organise a committee at Beyrout of which I should be chairman, you will have perceived, before this, from the second edition of the appeal from Beyrout, that I have accepted the presi dency of the Anglo-American Committee. No separate committee could be formed, as the existing association in cludes the names of all the respectable members of the Eng lish residents at Beyrout. Your wishes as to the principles upon which the relief should be administered will be strictly adhered to ; indeed, in their operation hitherto those principles have been acted upon by the Beyrout Committee. The reports of our pro ceedings and operations will be duly forwarded to you for the information of those interested. I intend to draw to-morrow for £5OO on account. Agree ably with an intimation from his Excellency Sir Henry Bulwer I will forward a proportion of the £l,OOO to Mr. Consul Brant at Damascus, with whom I am in communi cation on the subject. I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient humble servant, N. Moons, Consul-General. Sir Culling Eardley, Bart. P.S., Aug. 16.—Last night about 3,500 unfortunates, chiefly women and children, arrived from Damascus in the most forlorn and pitiable condition. The Government are affording them relief. I believe it is intended to send them to Cyprus and RhAes, as an epidemic is feared on account of the over-crowded state of Beyrout. N. M. British Syrian Relief Fund, 12, York-buildings, Adelphi, W. C., Sept. 6. Sir,—On behalf of the Syrian Relief Committee we beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letters of the 14th and 16th of August. We are happy to learn that our pro ceedings have afforded gratification, and are calculated to be of considerable service at Beyrout and elsewhere in Syria. We are perfectly satisfied with your kind assurance that the funds transmitted to the eemmittoe over which you preside will be administered on the principles of perfect impartiality indicated in our letter of July 27. The committee attach great importance, as do the British public, to our contributions not being used so as to throw weight into the scale of any race, or creed, or party. With a view to affording every possible assurance on this head, we shall be glad (as we have already intimated in our letter dated Aug. 23), if your committee should see fit to add to its number resident gentlemen of character and re spectability belonging to the Jewish, Roman Catholic, and Greek persuasions, and connected with other than the British and American nations. We feel sure, from what we know of those who appear to be taking the most active part in your Anglo-American Committee, that everything which tends to give a character of world-wide humanity to your proceedings will be as agreeable to them as it will be satisfactory to us. In order that there may be no mistake, we beg to recapi tulate the amounts for which we have already authorised you to draw upon our treasurer, at the dates severally at tached to each sum :—July 24, £l,OOO ; Aug. 4, £1,500 ; Aug. 9, £3,000 ; Aug. 25, £2,000 ; total, £7,500. A telegraphic message 'was despatched from the Foreign office, on each of those days respectively, to Constantinople, to Sir H. L. Bulwer, and his Excellency replied by tele gram, dated Aug. 28, which informed Lord John Russell that by the next mail-packet to Beyrout in each instance he had transmitted the same authority to you. We have now the pleasure of authorising you to make a further draught on Messrs. Heywood, Kennard, and Co. of £2,500, making altogether £lO,OOO. Contributions are coming in nobly. In several leading cities and towns, as in Liverpool, Manchester, &c., some of the principal inhabitants, frequently headed by the Mayor, Provost, or chairman of the Town Commissioners have either called meetings or initiated subscriptions. Many ministers of religion have preached for the object and many more will do so for some time to come. Some are about to take the opportunity offered by the sermons and public prayers (more or less general) which have been occasioned by the recent anxiety about the harvest to make a collection for the suffering Syrians. Continental friends are also coming to our aid. We have addressed circulars to leading Christians and Jews (of which we inclose copies) in most p Arts of Europe, intimating our readiness to become the channel of their benevolence, should they find difficulties either in establishing a national com mittee for themselves based on our principle of impartiality, or in securing an administration in Syria which will be perfectly satisfactory. We are glad to find that in Prussia and elsewhere a na tional fund will be formed to which all will contribute, and which will be transmitted to your Prussian colleague at Beyrout. An influential Committee at Hamburg intends to intrust us With its funds. Geneva, Wurtembuts, Marseilles, &c., have formed channels of their own for distributing their contributions. From other quarters on the Continent we learn that our Committee will be deemed the most satis factory medium. With the copies of the circulars issued to the leading Jews of Europe we enclose copies of the address of the Chief Rabbi in this country, the Rev. Dr. Adler, to the Jewish community at large, by which that circular is in each in stance accompanied. We are desired by the Committee to state that we have read with much interest a suggestion of the Times' corre spondent, that some of the money collected should be ap • plied to cleansing the town of Beyrout, so as to prevent pestilence ; and we are to intimate to your Committee that if they think fit to employ some of the destitute persons flocking into your town in cleansing and whitewashing we shall consider it a very legitimate application of (say) £2O a week for two months to come. We are also to add that the Committee have seen an ad dress of Madame la Contesse de Pertheres, and other ladies in Beyrout, to the ladies of Marseilles, asking for materials (old or new) for clothing a multitude of persons who are almost naked. A British Ladies Committee is in course of formation with a view to assisting in sending you such materials as clothes, &c. Application will also be made to manufacturers to assist in the same object. The articles which may result from these efforts shall be transmitted to your Committee, to be made over by them to such ladies or benevolent persons in your town as your Committee may select. Our Committee will receive with pleasure the reports which you promise us, and they will be ready to concur in all feasible plans that you may suggest for the relief of the poor sufferers. They rely on your Committee to tell them whether they can be of any use in sending out nurses or surkeons, medicine, tents, &c. In conclusion, we are requested by our Committee to con vey to you their congratulations on the apparent cessation of the late fearful and odious massacres, and their hope that the courageous and energetic efforts of Fuad Pasha may have had their due effect upon the populations. We are unanimous in desiring that, whatever severe examples it may b 9 thought requisite to make of the chief culprits, re course will not be deemed necessary to indiscriminate and extensive executions. We believe the object at which the Governpient of the Sultan aims, the pacification of Syria, will be best attained by the display of vigour and mercy combined. We trust that the day may come when a land so dear to Jews and to Christians of every name, will attain to a state of permanent tranquillity, and I need not say how telad we shall be if the sympathy now being evinced by the people of this country, and of Europe, conduce, by the blessing of God, to that desired end. " I have the honour to be, sir, on behalf of Sir James Pergusson, M.P., and myself, your faithful and obedient servant, C. E. EARDLEY, Honorary Secretary. " N. Moore, Esq." The following letter has been addressed to a con temporary : _ Sir,—The enclosed particulars of the origin and causes of the Syrian outbreaks may yet be found useful to your readers. Unchristian and false ac counts, laying the whole blame o n th e Ch r i s ti ans , having found their way into many of the English and foreign papers, not without prejudice to the public mind, induced me to seek for the real causes at the best-informed quarters. My informant, not being actuated by sectarian prejudice, favoured me at my request with the under-mentioned details, to which, as an advocate of truth and justice, you will give publication in your columns. I beg to enclose my card, and remain, sir, yours respectfully, A SYRIAN MERCHANT. 14, South Castle-street, Liverpool, Sept. 3. " In reply to your inquiries concerning the origin and cause of the disturbances that have occurred in this country this year, I beg to state that much, if not all, I am sorry to say, is to be placed to the debit of th- Ottoman Government, whose endeavour is to govern people through a cunning and intrigu ing policy, and not by the exercise of legitimate control, and who since the last arrangements made made by Shekeib Effendi (which established that the government of tlie mountains should be intrusted to native princes) directed its best efforts in order, as they say, to maintain an equilibrium of power between Christians and Druses, to assist the latter and strengthen them, lest through their weakness and scarcity of number they should be overcome and the Christian element pre dominate, and the consequence of this assistance gave birth to many evils, as the Druses are by na ture lovers of murders, highway robberies, and seizures of property ; so they began to perpetrate these things with impunity, and in none of their misdeeds ( we'l known to the Government) were they ever punished or interfered with, except very seldom, and when such things had any connexion with Europeans, and justice was demanded with power. Things remained in such a state until Mohamed Kurschid Pasha was intrusted with the government of Beyrout, with It's Wehaya and others of his suite, like Atta Bey and Ahmed Effendi, and also Ahmed Pasha, Seraskier of Damascus, and similar officers ; then the insubordination of the Druses and their aggressions were redoubled, and ceased on the part of the Government every atten tion and consideration to the remonstrances made by the European Consuls, and treated with dis dain was every European intervention, until this state of things caused the outbreak between Druses and Christians last year at Beit-Mery, in the district of Metten, where the Druses not having been successful, but rather beaten, they nursed at heart the intention of revenge, and all means were employed by them to arrive at this purpose; they forged letters from the principal chiefs and nobles, forged their seals to this effect and sealed them without any foundation, the purport of which let.. ters is that the Christians have resolved to call the French into Syria and exterminate from the land all the other sects. In the interval, through the aggressive policy and injustice of the Kaimakan of the Christians, Emir Beschir Ahmed (who is of Druse origin), and the cowardice of the family Kazin, some agitation was caused among the people, which ended in their expelling them, and the tern porary appointment of other people in their place. Then amid this agitation the Druses took advan tage, and with their forged letters and other means (as the vile machinations of the Emir Beschir Assaf and similar unworthy chiefs, whose object was to attain power), enlisted almost all in their favour. They enlisted the Government from their jealousy against allowing any power to the Christians, whom they hate religiously. They enlisted tne Moslems, first, because their religion commands them to shed the blood of all those who differ from them, take their property and violate their women every time they deviate from the conditions laid on them by Omar Ben Kattab—as not to ride horses, or wear green stuffs, or pass to the right of any Moslem ; secondly, they having been de ceived by the forged documents that the Chris tians intend to exterminate both them and their Government; thirdly, the enmity contracted against the Christians on account of the equality demanded by the European Powers between Moslem and Christian. They enlisted all the other sects, Me tualis and others, because these have no confidence in the good intentions and behaviour of their Chris tian neighbours ; therefore, a conspiracy of all the enemies of Christians was formed, preparations completed, and nothing wanted but a motive—then vexatious questions, revenge, and want of justice, &c., began. The Druses first of all killed the supe rior of the convent of Ammyk, near Deir el Kam mar, and pillaged his residence ; also another per son from Obbadia, on the new French road to Da mascus ; afterwards three men at Khan Mohamed Ali, near Saida; then a priest and four men from Jezzin, in the lane of Mazrah ; then another of Obea. These murders caused great agitation in the country, and the Christians presented their com plaints to the authorities, through some influential persons like Bishop Tubia and others (of those held suspected on no foundation to be members of a committee for the extermination of the Druses), but no ear was given to their complaints, and then these influential persons employed to obtain justice from the Government, not having received any, told their employers of the ill success of their cause, and, if they were not satisfied, to obtain if they could redress themselves ; therefore the Christians, in their agitation, killed one Druse at Khan Shayah, near Beyrout, another near the rivers of Beyrout,and the Druses killed a Christian of Deir-el- Kammar in Ainab, and in revenge the inhabitants of Deir-el-Karnmar killed aDruse of the same town. Things arriving at such a maturity, the Druses surprised one hour before sunset the village of Beit Mery, and with the assistance of some Bashi Ba zouks, stationed there on the part of the Government since last year to keep order as it were, remained fighting until half-past 3, after sunset, when both parties withdrew, but not before the greater part of the village was burnt down. Before these occur rences the Christians had sent about 300 men, most of them from Kount Kesrouan, to Baabda, in order to protect the district called Sahil against the Druses of the Garb, and whom the chief Druses of that place requested not to interrupt the peace existing between them and themselves. In the meantime, Mohamed Kurschid Pasha, Governor of Beyrout, went into Haabeya, near the village Haddath, and with him about 800 troops, with some cannon, and sent some notable persons on his part, both Mos lems and Christians of Beyrout, to tell them to dis perse, else he would attack them, promising, ii they obeyed, to keep the Druses from attacking them, and guaranteeing them from all consequences if they dispersed. This done, on the following day after the attack on Beit-Mery the Druses surprised the villages of Hareya, Wadey, Beitshey, Baabda, Haddath, and adjacent places, and put to fire and sword the deceived inhabitants and their houses, who, having received the assurance of the Druse chief, and that of Kur schid Pasha, were totally unprepared for the at tack. The Turkish soldiers took an active and ap parent part against the Christians; however, the loss of life in this engagment was trifling, as most of the inhabitants were not at home, but at their daily labours in the town of Beyrout and other places. The same day the populati on o f D e db e ya, intimidated by their Druse neighbours, left their village about evening, and with their families walked on the coast side towards Beyrout. They were met when near the Damoor River by the Druses of Shouyfat, and some of the Shahar and Garb, who surprised them and put them to the sword till morn ing, leaving the coast strewed with the dead bodies of men, women, and children, then seized their property, and went away. These poor fellows suffered dreadfully, and the women left their chil dren on the sands, exposed to the dangers of hea ven, earth, and sea. This massacre was also per petrated with the assistance of some Bashi-Bazouks, placed by the Government to guard the safety of the road ; also some Moslems of Beyrout took part in it. A few days afterwards other massacres took Place in the district of Jezzin and the villages of Saida. No less than 3,000 people were butchered, and it was then, when the remaining Christians were running for refuge to Saida, they met with their death by the hands of the Moslems and soldiers in a more cruel and infamous manner. Afterwards fights and engagements, massacres and destructions were carried throughout the entire mountains. The whole country became unsafe, and communication between one place and another stopped. Then fol lowed the massacres of Hasbeya, Rasheya, Deir-el- Kammar, and Zahleh, unprecedented even in the annals of barbarous nations. These slaughters and that of Damascus have been perpetrated upon the Ottoman Gevernment giving assurances and gua• rantees of protection to the Christians, disarming them and then delivering them to their enemies, who killed them with axes and other horrid in struments, and not with bullets and powder, as they say it is a pity to waste powder on a Chris tian. The Imperial soldiers did not hesitate to help in the perpetration of all these horrid actions, besides they had robbed the Christians of their most valuable property under the pretext of keep ing it for them. The number of those saved from these wholesale butcheries is few, and whenever a person was saved through the 'mercy of au enemy it was a Druse, and not a Moslem or Turk, who showed compassion. These are the original causes of these disturbances, which will, no doubt, one day be found out to be correct, and refute all the other causes ascribed to the Christians, which have been credited by some, as well as the news of a treaty of peace having been arranged between the Druses and the Christians, one of the greatest lies that was ever invented to deceive Europe. In fine, the sole cause of these terrible occurrences may be placed to the Ottoman Government, and it is not impossible that this very Government may one day bceome the cause of the rain of the world." • • e= ''•1" - ' v Alk 414: -1/ • .

A letter from Beyrout, dated August 18, says:— In my last letter, despatched via Alexandria, on the 16th inst., I mentioned that two vess Is, having on board a portion of the French expedition, had that morning anchored in the roadstead. But as the men were not disembarked until after post hour, I was unable to furnish any account of their landing. This commenced about two hours before sunset, the English, Dutch, Austrian, Sardinian, Greek. and Russian, as well as French men of war, lending their boats for the occasion. The number of men that have arrived amounted to rather more than 1,700, of which about 500 came in the Messa• genie mail beat, and the rest in a large steam transport. In the latter was General Beaufort d'Hautpoul, who commands the expedition, and who (from the fact of his having served all through the Syrian campaign of 1840 as aide 2e-camp to Suliman Pacha (Colonel Sevres), the Egyptian general (a Frenchman by birth) com manding the troops of Ibrahim Pacha, seems to be the right man in the right place. The disembarka tion was by no means well managed. The men were landed at Ras Beyrout, to the south of the town, the very furthest possible point from where their camp was to be. Instead of being brought ashore in large bodies, and directly marched off at an easy pace to their camp, they came ashore by driblets, were kept hours in the fearfully hot Syrian sun, and then marched off at the rate of six miles an hour along a dusty road, over a very steep hill, through ankle deep sand, to a second road more dusty than the first, and so some three miles to their camp, reeking with perspiration, covered with dust, overladen with baggage, jingling with mess tins and canteens slung about them, and having the most unimposing appearance it is possible to conceive. It was really almost as if an enemy had done it, and pained one to see such really fine troops made to look so little in the eyes of the natives. But French troops do not embark or disembark well ; all connected with the sea is their weak point. Any Eaglish colonel of a regiment or staff officer who had disembarked his brigade or regiment as these men were landed the other day would have received such a wigging as he would not have for got in a hurry. Even the first detachment that marched off did not reach their camping ground until long after sunset, and the latter could not have arrived until an hour or more after it was quite dark. This two in a new country, where every arrangement had to be made, and where the men had to pitch their camp before they slept Apart, too, from this it was of importance that the natives of the country should see a body of troops land and march in a soldierlike imposing manner, whereas they looked to the mere superficial be holder but very slightly removed from the Turkish soldiers. This, too, is the more extraordinary, as there had been here for the last fortnight or more a French staff colonel, who came to select the ground for the camp, and make all arrangements for their disembarkation. I never saw the most slovenly English regiment land in so unsoldierlike a man ner as did these troops. But here all fault-finiing must end. The sol diers had no sooner got to their ground than they commenced pitching their small tentes d'abris (each of which is divided into three parts and carried by as many men), preparing their soup kettles, and otherwise making themselves comfortable. I vi sited the camp the following day, and went all over it ; the men looked as comfortable and as perfectly settled down as if they had been a year in the place. Their commissariat arrangements, packing of stores, &c., appear most admirable. Every two bags of flour, every two barrels of wine, every two cases of ammunition, form together exactly a load for a mule or horse. Everything connected with the whole economy of the force seems to fit due into another, like the pieces of a child's puzzle ; there seems to be a place for everything, and everything is in its place. What a difference from our mar vellous Anglo-commissariat mismanagement, waste, and ignorance ! Who that has ever landed with English troops in a strange country, or even in a well-known country with troops new to it, can forget the utter disorder, discomfort, and muddle which prevail in every civil department of oar ser vice ! I have seen an English regiment, in times of profound peace, land in an Indian Presidency town where the authorities had been expecting them for six months, and there was nothing more ready for the men than if they had arrived at one of the Feejee islands. How the French exceed us in this ! Had the troops which came here the other day landed at Marseilles or Toulon, they could not have been better cared for in all that regards their eating, drinking, and general comfort. The detachments which have already arrived consist of the 16th battalion of Chasseurs a Pied— a corps which distinguished itself greatly at Sol ferino—a portion of the sth and 11th of the Line, and a complete company of Engineers. They are all young—but not too young —men, and appear healthy, hardy, and well-trained. The 16th Chas seurs, in particular, is a very fine regiment, and on parade, as I saw them early this morning, look the very picture of what a rifle corps should be. Some few, very few, of the men have been drunk about the town, but the great civility they show towards all who• go near their camp, and the individual intelligence of even thd privates, are very striking indeed. All ranks of the detachments speak in raptures of their first reception in Pales tine. The French mail steamer, having about 500 of the 16th Chasseurs on board, reached Jaffa on the 15th instant, the Emperor's birthday. The English line-of-battle ship Victor Emmanuel, 91, Capt. Clifford, was at anchor before the town. The moment the steamergeast anchor, Capt. Clifford sent' on board to know whether he could be of any us e to the officers or men, at the same time manning yards and firing a salute in honour of the Emperor's fete. When the steamer left Jaffa for Beyruut, . n the afternoon, the Victor Emmanuel manned yards again, and gave the French troops three parting cheers. This little piece of cheap civility has created a most wonderfully warm feeling towards us, both amongst the French troops and Fre nch navy here, and they declare that we are the leas t jealous and the most braves gens in the wor ld. Well, better by tfarirgtuhei,s, with hn whichth evesrolmasetimngensotrny to account f or a ll song of " F rench in that has happened i n Syria.

Why, of sathe doltish repetition what in the name o f common sense has either one or the other same, his /WU+ Pitieß 4 1 ). S TA MPED , sr. nation had to intrigue for in this land ? The French, owing to a similarity of religious creed and other reasons, have more influence in the province than we have, but that they have intrigued or do intrigue to gain this is a weak fable which can no more bear proof than can the opposite one of E ng l and intrigu • ing amongst the Druses—in fact both are equally false, both equally wantin g in anything approaching to proof, and both equally mischievous for either French or English to speak or print at the present day. One thing is certain, that here in Syria there is but one opinion about the occupation. English French, Austrian, Russian, and native Christians are of opinion that it is the one only move which can save Syria from utter ruin. There has not—as I have all along prophesied in my letters been the shadow of a rising on the part of the Moslems owing to the French troops landing, but on the contrary they have been humbled and subdued, in stead of arrogant and insulting, towards the Chris tians on all possible occasions. We have not yet had time to hear what effect the landing of the troops has produced in the interior, but I still main tain that both Moslem and Druse will be frightened into good behaviour rather than goaded into insur rection. The effect which the occupation has had in re-establishing confidence in the place is wonder ful. Men now go about their occupations certain that their lives and those of their families are secure. Trade too is gradually but surely reviving, and business is a hundred per cent. more brisk than it was a few days ago. Some of the Druses talk very big of meeting the French should they move towards Damascus, and disputing their entrance there by force of arms. However, this is but talk. The Druses have perhaps yet to learn the difference of fighting from behind stone walls and of the attack of European troops. They are brave as the tiger or bloodhound is brave—that is, they would tear in pieces their unarmed enemy. But courage as it is accounted in Western lands they know not, and would no more hold their own—not even in the mountains—against one-fifth of their number of regular troops, than a London mob would stand against a troop of Life Guards. I firmly believe— and I have seen no little eastern mountain warfare in Afghanistan, a country defended by a far braver race of men than the Druses—l firmly believe that with three thousand such infantry as he has here, and a few mountain guns, General d'Hautpoul could walk from one end of Southern Syria to the other. He could drive every Druse out of Leba non, restore perfect order to Damascus, and punish all the miscreants who have committed murder in the land. The Druses, Bedouins, Kurds, and Mos lems judge of other regular troops by what they have seen of the Sultan's Nizam soldiers, but they would find it a very different affair if they came to measure arms with Frenchmen, and it would perhaps be quite as well if they received a lesson which they would not forget in a hurry. If time allows it to-day, I must here add an appeal to Eng land on behalf of the suffering refugee Christians of Syria. The night before last another caravan of these poor people arrived here from Damascus. I rode out to meet them, and the sight was enough to excite the pity Eitel anger of any one. Could one man from each parish in England, France, Austria, Switzerland, and America, have seen these poor creatures arrive, there would be preached and car ried out such a crusade against Islamism as would quite throw into the shade the like expeditions of the middle ages. The caravan numbered about 2,000 souls, and contained at least 20 women to one man. Where were the natural protectors—the hus bands, fathers, brothers, and sons of these women ? Cut off, murdered, butchered—massacred in cold blood, massacred unarmed, massacred as trouble some vermin might be, simply and solely because, imperfect and faulty though their creed be, yet solely because they bore the name of Christians. And this, too, by a people who were supported by a government which Protestant England and Catho- lie France shed the blood of thousands to save from a foreign foe. In that caravan that came in the other day there were no fewer than six infants at the breast that had died because fear, hunger, worry, and fatigue had dried up the milk of their mothers. The sickness amongst them all (from the life they had led at Damascus, the great heat and annoyance of the journey, and the bad food they had been fed on for weeks) is fearful. Our English and American fund is working well, and doing great good : £2,500 have reached us from home, and more will follow, no doubt. But will no one contri bute blankets, coarse cloth, rags, old clothes—any thing whereby the horrors of the cold damp Syrian winter can be mitigated for these poor creatures ? The names of the home committee are well known. Sir Moses Montefiore and Sir Culling Eardley are at the head of the movement ; and the bankers are Hey woods, Coutts, Drummond, and the Ottoman Bank. Food of any sort, clothing of any kind, even fuel of any description would be most acceptable. In Beyrout, Mr. Moore, the English consul-general, Mr. Johnson, the United States consul, and all the Eng lish and American residents, are of the committee, so that subscribers may feel pretty certain that their funds will not be misapplied. Nor is the affair at all sectarian. On the list of those relieved by our Anglo-American committee there are about eighty Protestants, and more than 4,900 Catholics and members of the Greek Church. In the name of all that is merciful, then, let England come forward with her subscriptions, for greater misery or need never existed than we have here now. Coarse warm cloth, or other winter material wherewith to make up dresses for these poor people, would be most acceptable, and should be sent out in as large quan- tities as possible. From Damascus I hear that Fuad Pacha has exe cuted four Druses of the Hauran, who were impli cated in murdering Christians of the villages near Damascus. These are the first of these miscreants who have as yet met with their reward ; let us hope they will not be the last. Nearly all the Druse Sheiks have sent to ask Fuad Pacha whether he will receive them. He replied, N o ;" but that " when he did went them he would send for them ; and he advised them to obey the summons. I hear, and hope it is true, that the French wi ll i make it a sine qua non that all feudal power be taken from the Druse Sheiks throughout L ebanon.

The minutes of the previous meeting having been read, A reward of £l3 was voted to the crew of the. Lyme Regis lifeboat, which belongs to the institu tion, for going off on the night of the 20th ult., during a gale of wind, and assisting, by putting some of her crew on board, to bring safely into port the schooner Ceres, of Shields, and her crew of five men. It appeared that when the vessel was first seen she was at anchor on a lee shore, 15 miles to leeward of Lyme. Although the night was dark and boisterous, and the ship so distant from their station, the lifeboat crew lost not a moment in launching their lifeboat, and proceeding to the ves sel's help. After a hard pull of several hours they succeeded in reaching the schooner and in assisting to bring her safely into harbour. The lifeboat was reported to have behaved adalirably, and to pull very well on the occasion. A reward of ..C7 10s. was also voted to the crew of the Southport lifeboat, which has recently been brought into connection with the National Lifeboat Institution, for putting off very early on the morn ing of the 26th ult., to the rescue of the crew of three men of the smack Hope, of Dublin, which during a heavy gale of wind, was seen in distress on the Horse Bank, near Liverpool. The sea at the time was making a complete breach over the wreck and the poor men who were in it had given them selves up for lost, as, owing to the darkness of the morning, they did not see the lifeboat until she was within 200 yards of them. With some difficulty they were rescued from their very perilous situation, but it was at last successfully accomplished through the able management of Rockliffe, the coxswain of the lifeboat, and the shipwrecked crew were after wards brought safely on shore. The lifeboat on this station is old, and the National Lifeboat Institution has decided on re, ' ing her with a new one, and on building a new ana . eommodious lifeboat house at Sot.: hp,e.t, which, on account o I its proximity to Liverpool, is a most important and desirable life ' boat station. The thanks of the institution, inscribed on vel lum, were ordered to be presented to Mr. A. Gould, captain pilot at Aberdeen, in testimony of his va,uable services in assisting with the Aberdeen lifeboat and other means in saving, during the last two or three years, the crews of several vessels which had been wrecked near Aberdeen. The life boat at Aberdeen was built by Messrs. Forrestt, on the plan of this institution, and is kept in first-rate order. A reward of £4 was given to a boat's crew, for putting off and taking from the rigging, at consi derable risk of life, the crew of two men of the sloop Britannia, of Preston, which during a heavy gale of wind had sunk off Southport, on the 26th. ult. The poor men had been in the rigging five hours when rescued, the vessel having sunk imme diately after taking the ground. A reward of £6 was also voted to the crew of the life-boat of the institution stationed at Lytham, for putting off with the view of rendering assistance to vessels in distress during the heavy storm on. Sunday, the 26th ult. It was reported that the institution had just sent new lifeboats to New Quay, in Cornwall, and to Banff, on the north-east coast of Scotland. The cost of the former boat had been defrayed by a lady, and that of the latter by Messrs. Macfie and Sons, of Liverpool. A free conveyance had, as usual, been readily given by the several railway companies for the two boats and carriages. Lifeboats were ordered to be built for Penar tb, on the Glamorginshire coast, and for Selsea, on the Sussex coast. It was reported that some benevolent ladies had presented to the institution £2OO, to enable it to plant a lifeboat at Llandudno, near Liverpool, in memory of a departed relative. A letter was read from Mr. Ferguson, harbour master of Victoria, Australia, of June 20 last, ex pressing his thanks for the various papers the society had forwarded to him. and stating that in addition to the five lifeboats built on the plan of the National Lifeboat Institution, they were de sirous to build some single-banked lifeboats on the principle, and desiring that a drawing of the same might be forwarded to him. A communication was also read from Mr. Wood bride, swimming master of the lake in Victoria Park, stating that he had within the past few weeks been instrumental in restoring three ladfi who were apparently dead from drowning, by treating them according to the instructions of the 'institu tion. These rules are based on the prim;iples of the late eminent physiologist, Dr. Marshal' t Hall. These facts, taken in connexion with th e impor tant services which the lifeboat of the institution are constantly rendering to shipwrecked crews, proclaim their own importance; and •vhile the National Lifeboat Institution can hope to bestow boons of such value on suffering human',ty, it may expect to retain its hold, with God's blessing, on the esteem and gratitude of mankind. Payments amounting to £BOO were ordered to be made on various lifeboat establiliaments. The institution earnestly appealed to the public for assistance to enable it to meet the very heavy and continued expenses on .ts large fleet of lifeboats now numbering one lund.red and six. The proceedings P.ien closed. TB IS DAY'S MARKETS. ~.....' c-4:, ~.......,,, , * -1 . , Pr I'' IY.-.. 1( 4 , '\ "--I - ,4* - .; • rgi,47 r L IRE p OY ILi tionafeboat Aiti. II S ,__ - CORN EXCHANGE. A very scanty supply of English wheat was on sale in to-day's market ; nevertheless, the demand for all kinds was heavy in the extreme, and prices were: almost nominal. To have effected sales, a decline of 2s per quarter upon Monday's rates must have been submitted to by the factors. We were well supplied with all kinds of foreign wheat. Millers showed no disposition to purchase, and prices wore nominally the same as last reported. In floating cargoes of grain next to nothing was doing ) on former terms.
