'They congratulate their supporters on the very able and 'conciliatory manner in which the Marriage Bill of 1858 was introduced by Lord Bury and Lord Gage, as well as on the powerful and unsolicited advocacy of many distinguished members of both Houses of Parliament. They would •espe cially refer to the assurance of Lord Lyndhurst as to the bene ficial effect of the absence of this restriction in America, atT well as to the testimony of the Bishop of Ripon, Mr. Baines, ,and Mr. Whitbread to the evil consequences o f th e ex i s ti ng law among the poor in this country.

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 puries. 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. " 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.

An erroneous impression exists that public announcements on these disorders emanate only from unqualified persons, but as the new Medical Act provides that none but registered practitioners shall assume any medical title, those that are legally qualified can readily be distinguished —a point of great importance in cases where secrecy, confidence, and skill are equally requisite. 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 injudicious 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 impossible.

'LORD PANmuRE _4- pARLIAJLENTART REPOILIL Mr. Kinloch, of Kinloch, having lately published a.letter to Lord Panmure (of only local interest) regarding some proceedings at a recent meeting of the county of Forfar, Lord Panmurc has replied in the following letter : Edinburgh, Jan. 19, 1859. Dear Kinloch,—l received your letter last night, and as I shall be engaged all day with the meeting of the Highland Society, and am 'to go , south in the evening, I can only give to it a hurried reply. I may at once state to you that the reporters mistook my figures, and wrote down 30,000 instead of 80,000 inhabitants. My impression was, and still is, that on this basis of population you claimed a second member for Forfarshire in the redistribution of seats which you anticipated under some new Reform Bill,•whether Mr. Bright's or not,' now . forget. Founding upon this erroneous report, you proceed to read me a lecture on my speech:: at Brc chin; and my political conduct in general. seems agreeable to you to do so; and I feel not the smallest • resentment at your taking the trouble to resiew my past conduct with respet to reform. In look'lng back upon my political life, T defy you or any, one. to lay . your finger upon any ledge which I ever gave on the subject of reform which I have not redeemed or endeavoured to redeem. If you and others fornied extraordinary expectations that I was to become one of that band of extreme politicians who saw no limit to popular demands, I am not responsible for your disappointment; and it seems somew hat hard that I should become the object of your censure. I • will not,• however, pursue these generalities, but confine myself more immediately to your letter. You quote my words at Forfar correctly,:and the opinions,l expressed then I still entertain. I shall be much surprised if any government brings in r bpi giving any very extensive redistribution e l f seats ; • and I • shall also be surprised if Forfar , Jr • Perth obtain a second member. Why, your frie'id, and I presume yourieader in reform, Mr. Bright, in all his extensive redistribution, does not think - of either county ; and I can easily imagine Vie els appointment with which you read that port ion of his schedules which enfranchised Aberdeen; but silently passed by the - two counties of Pert h' and Forfar. - You next proceed to lecture me for F toting' . Auf . the' relieil'Tor '674sTaly:o7.:*"e's - the' ( 4 1 - f `the ; bpi; of ,48,32.7 w r iidliere,lo,NN;OVAr i , to the o pinion. . It was the bill of 1832 that placed Mr. Cobden, and Mr. Bright in Parliament; and enabled them to devote their extraordinary energies and talents, in and . out of the house; to the advocacy . of the total repeal of the corn-laws. They occupied . the ground already laid for them by Chas. Villiers, who fought many a battle against heavy odds before these two latter champions entered the field. You next proceed to accuse the Whigs of not efficiently • working out the Reform Bill, and of becoming as • great Jobbers as once' the Tories wete.' I have often heard the former expression, but, I confess I do not fully understand its meaning. Srlie Whigs did pass many measures of the greaten benefit to the nation between 1832 and 1841; which may be diiectly ascribed to the powerful aid of those whom the. Reform Bill brought into the : lHouse of Commons. You and others may ignore these if you choose, but you cannot blot them from the statute book, where they remain as proofs of the energy of those who were their authors, and of the ingratitude of ,those who forget them. lam sorry to' see you adopt the cant phrase of Whig jobbers.' Such phrases are the last resources of those who lack argu ments to condemn a political party. s You are the last man who should forget the long struogle for the liberties of the people maintained by the .Whigs at the risk of personal liberty, and certain exclu sion from the attainment of the highest offices in the judicial and other professions by those who ha d the honesty and courage to belong to the party. His,- tory will do them justice, though it is the fashion to refuse it now. Whatever may be said against us, trust we shall be forward in supporting every just re form and fair demand on the part of the nation at large. But if reforms be proposed which have for their object the serious disturbance of the balance of different interests in our constitution which still happily exists, and to set up one portion of the nation in dominion over the rest—such reforms I, for one, will resist; even at the risk of incurring your renewed censure.—l am, dear Kinloch, yours truly, " PANXTURE.” "To George Kinloch, Esq., of that Ilk."

Anti-Reform cherishes two hopes—the one, that some pretext may yet be found for another adjourn ment sine die of the great question now ripe for adjudication by Parliament ; the other, that should that device fail, conditions and stiprlations may be made during the discussion of. the measure that may have the effect of neutralising to a great extent its popular tendency. Various schemes are' afoot for this purpose. It is part of the general plot that they Bhould be - put forward at first as isolated sug gestiond" of a practical kind," as is said, egregiously unpretending in their aspect, and philosophically recommended to unsuspicious attention. Our old acquaintance, the " voting-paper system," will no doubt be reproduced with an effrontery as good as new ; and no end of projects for creating select and special constituencies for the use of squeamish and infirm politicians, are ready to be propounded in committee. Our immediate business, however, is with a more audacious proposition than any of these. It is neither more nor less than a plan to render it unnecessary for certain members of the - Government, whose presence is requisite in Parlia ment, to have.any constituencies at all! In the course of a long and elaborate speech against any and- every attempt to deal effectually with the too long deferred claims of the people to constitutional rights,. Mr. Edward Ellice the younger coolly told his hearers the other day, at Cupar, that should any bill seem likely to pass this year, provisions ought to be inserted .eiabling the Minister of the day to . nominate to offices hitherto filled by members of the Legislature, indiViduals too obscure or unpopular to get returned by any descriptien..of constituency, whether pure or venal, large or small. It is often found very inconvenient, says this worthy Mouthpiece of oligarchy, not to be able to place on the Treasury Bench the particu lar men who are most in the confidence of Govern ment, and who would be the most unfaltering and effective apologists of -its measures. The fear of their electors paralyses the courage of some ; and the mere liability to re-election damps in many the desire to put-on the livery of office. Not a doubt of it ; and that is precisely the reason 'why the great constitutional principle was long ago estab lished that the responsible members of the Execu tive should be chosen from the men whom the people were presumed to have sent to Parliament to watch. over their interests, and that a corrupt or usurping administration might never be permitted to pack, even for a session, the seat of legislative rule with its un-elected and irresponsible creatures. The founders of our liberties well knew that a popular Minister would. never experience any, diffi culty in, finding clever and aspiring members of Parliament to join the Government ; and that so long as the policy he. pursued was national and enlightened, such men ,would seldom, if ever, fail to be re-elected after they had done so. Excep tional cases now and then prove rather than inva lidate therul.e. ,d3nt,(ip lite main, it when --a Cabinet is Felt to be wanting, in public twit, or negiedftil duty the people, that` he embar rassment is ever known to arise. Good measures are easily defended ; it is only bad measures that need the aid of hard-faced advocacy and support of merely mercenary partisanship. The want of hire ling aid of this description has, indeed been some times felt by Ministers who, beginning by•specious professions of zeal for freedom, have apostatised in office from their early pledges. It may possibly also with reason be anticipated by men wild, de spairing of acceptance by the nation on their merits, hope,to climb up into power by the favour of the Court and the strength of their family don nections, and who would like when they :get there to have the aid of their un-parliamentary auxi liaries in Parliament, to talk• down opposition to their anti-liberal. and anti•national schemes.. They fear, and justly, any change in the composition. of the Commons House that would reduce still fur ther the number of rotten boroughs. The member for St. Andrew's distinctly says so. Echoing the words of his kinsman and leader,. Lord Grey, he laments the extinction of so many of that useful, class of seats by the 'Act of 1832. He despairs of actually restoring them, but he is not ashamed to propose that the same purpose they served should be accomplished henceforth by other means — namely, that - the Government should have the power, of introducing always a given number of office-holders, not returned by any portion of the community to Parliament, and compelling that assembly to submit to be bullied, or worried, or tired out by these " mere mercenaries," We cannot be surprised that this hopeful propo sition commandsthe signal favour of a cotemporary distinguished for intrepid'admiration of the wisdom of the Coup d,'Etat, and consistent advocacy of the policy of the'Napoleonic regime. Whatever diffe rences of opinion may prevail as to the origin or tendency of that remarkable system, all agree' that its essential characteristic is the completeness of the way in which political power is concentrated in the smallest possible number of hands, and the manner in which, while certain forms and ceremonies of representation are presumed, all real responsibility is withdrawn from the people. The administration is everything in France; public opinion nothing. Our oligarchs would fain take a leaf out of the book of the Bonapartist Empire; and the journals whose devotion is divided between French Imperialism and English counteraction of popular tendencies, naturally dwell with delight on whatever seems to be common to the two. SARDINIA AND FRANCE. (From the Morning Acivotiser) From trustworthy information which has reached me, we are inclined to believe that Count Cavour is beginning to ponder seriously over the possible consequences of his rashness in deserting England's alliance for that of two despotic Sovereigns in whose friendship both nature and sound policy forbid him to confide. It would appear that the alternative, long balanced in his mind, was either liberty or territorial aggrandisement, and that he has finally preferred the latter. But, as we all along foretold, even this consum mation is not to be attained by sudden resolves and violent means, so easily as some of the visionary politicians of Turin seem to fancv. Before Victor Emmanuel can hope to be crowned King of Italy he must wade through torrents of human blood, He must reconcile the discordant feelings and passions of rival Princes. He must unite, in one common league of fellowship and amity, the con tendenies and antagonistic interests of which Italy has been for centuries the battle-field, and to whose sinister influences his father, and so many Italian leaders before him, have fallen vic tims. Nor is it to be overlooked that Austria is in possession of the best strategic positions and the principal fortresses of Italy, and that to dislodge her from these strongholds might possibly be the work of years. Sardinia, as we have so often warned her, would live acted more wisely had she been satisfied to abide her time—had she trusted less to physical means than to her moral influence as the only con stitutional State in Italy ; for the irresistible pro gress of events would have opened to her, sooner or later a glorious career, and thus she would not have been tempted to contract intimate engagements with despotic Powers. From this unnatural friend- ship she may, very possibly, never obtain the golden prize she is contending for; while to it she will probably one day ascribe, with bitterness and anguish, the loss of what now raises her above her station in the councils of Europe,—her constitu tional liberty. When. a State is topographically and politically situated as the Sardinian kingdom is, it will b e impelled by the instinct of self-preservation to seek for a protecting alliance. This ally ought to be neither too contiguous nor too distant; not too near lest the- connexion give rise to the very 'danger through which it is sought to be avoided ; nor too distant, for then the ally's assistance would be of little or no advantage in time of need ; or else, upon the special plea of rendering it more attainable, he would strive to gain a footing in the smaller State, and might eventually reduce it to the conditions of a dependency. •Thus Spain and Portugal, thus Austria and Sardinia, thus Sardinia and France may exchange international civilities ; they may enter into a transient intimacy, more or less preju dicial to the weaker party, but they can never be natural allies. Nor can Russia, removed far off a's she is-, ever become for, any lengthened period an efficient ally to the Sardinian States, - For in time of war her approach' might be iMpeded and altogethek frustrated by the naval superiority , of Great Britain unless she were t o establish 'settlements in the kingdom, taking possession, of the strongest posi tions, and to garrison them at once ; and in this case the peril which we have juit pointed, out would necessarily arise. Moreover, even'on this supposi tiow, Sardinia could hope to derive during the course of a protracted war but little benefit from the pro tection of Russia, unless the latter power formed part of a great coalition. Otherwise the Russian garrisons and auxiliary stations in the Sardinian dominions would be soon completely cut off from all intercourse with the mother country. That France cannot be the natural ally of the kingdoni• of Sardinia is equally evident, for the reasons we have already, assigned... History indeed can tell us that under the first Napoleon Piedmont became 'a French province, while the Princes of the House of Savoy, like the Bourbons of Naples, owed their salvation to British men-of-war. The Second Empire, weare told, is peace. Consequently, Napoleon 111. has not as yet annexed Piedmont to France.' His aim, if we rightly understand his character, is to follow, as closely as circumstances may allow, in the footsteps of his great uncle—to approach as near as possible the samegoal—but by means , totally different, and more peaceful. In union with Russia, he has contracted a very inti mate friendship with the little kingdom of Sardinia; and as friends are bound to be mutually agreeable to each other, Count Cavour has sacrificed a portion of his country's liberties to the Emperor, whilst the generous Emperor, in return, has granted the hand or his cousin, Prince Napoleon, to the King of ,Sardinia's daughter. Now, if so grave a concession as the law curtailing the liberty of the Press was conceded to French importunity before this new intimacy had been strengthened by the endearing ties of affinity, what may not be expected from it hereafter ? Are we therefore to affect surprise if all those who wish well to Piedmont anticipate, at this mo ment, the most unfavourable consequences from the political engagements which the Government of that country has recently contracted ? Great Britain, on the contrary, from tbe consti tutional elements of her power and her felicitous position, was, of all the countries in Europe, the first and foremost to offer to the kingdom of Sar dinia those conditions upon which an alliance, highly beneficial to the latter, might be perma nently founded ; while, to the most sagacious mind, this alliance could not present even the remotost danger. Our ancestors conferred upon the House of Savoy very essential benefits, long before this Royal race was permitted—through British influ ence especially—to extend their sway over the States of Genoa. This important accession of mari time territory—the later irk ention and general application of steam—the new road to India, hence forth irrevocably adopted—those commanding ports in the Mediterranean and Adriatic, which British valour first acquired, and the public law of Europe formally assigned to us—by bringing both nations into closer contact, must have greatly enhanced the value of our alliance in the eyes of the more saga cious politicians of Sardinia. But to a nation just emerging from absolutism, just awakening to the enjoyment of constitutional liberty, our friendship, indeed, became invaluable. Through it the aroused fears and jealousies of sur rounding Governments, naturally averse to the new order of things, were coerced; through it all ex ternal dangers whatever were warded off. For we :•citerate the opinion which we have so frequently expressed, had - the Piedmontese pursued with con stancy the course they had so successfully entered upon, England, though little disposed to follow them in aggressive operations, would never have permitted that they should have been assailed with impunity. So that the Minister of the day would have been allowed, freely, to devote all the energies of his mind to the removal of those internal diffi culties and embarrassments which endangered the birth, and which still retard the progress, of the Piedmontese Constitution. How different is the state of things now ! Nor do we believe that any man in Europe is better able to appreciate the difference than Count Cavour himself. He is no longer in that com manding position in which he stood twelve months ago; backed, as he then was, by the admiration, sympathy, and power of Great Britain. ,He has estranged from his country the affections of the English people, whose enmity, above that of all others, Austria was anxious to avert, and has thrown himself into the arms of Russia, and at the feet of Napoleon ! He already beholds the first effects of this Strange' lliance, in the darkening of the politi cal horizon ; 'in the gathering of approaching storms, big, it may be, with the fate of Italy and of Europe. Will war really ensue or not ? If not, the con dition of Piedmont will be intolerable; she will have e xhausted her resources and witsted her energies in vain, and will be doomed, on one hand, to endure most of the disadvantages, without any of the ad - va ntages of war ; and, on the other , to witness in sad silence, after. such lively hopes have been awakened, and such boasts have been uttered, and such heavy sacrifices have been borne, the consoli dation of her enemy's dominion throughout Italy. That enemy will continue to encircle her frontier —in grim aspect, in Colossal form—and more threat ening than ever. But should war, as is anticipated, break out in Italy, will Count Cavour's new allies, or one or other of them, come effectually to his as sistance ? If they do not, he will discover, but too late, that he has been their dupe, and will rue the fatal hour when he sacrificed England's friendship. If they do, isthere.a politician so bli n d as no t a t o nce to percei▪ ve that . such an event wou ld form a new era in the history and destini es o f modern-Eu rope ; that such an event might, possibly, establish Russian supremacy in the East, and subject Italy to France, but could not, pe rmanen tly, serve th e cause of Itali▪ an liberty ? W e are not, th ere f ore , surprised that Count Cavour should be, at this mo ment, a prey to mis g i v i ngs an d uncertainty ; for, to us, it appears very problematical whether, through such - a war, no matter how successful the King of Sardinia would ever-be allowed to - extend Materi ally his dominions.

Great commotion was caused on Saturday in the Faubourg St. Germain, by an extraordinary attempt at murder in the house of the Marquise de Martain ville, 72, Rue St. Dominique St. Germain. The Marquis de Martainville, who died lately, left by his will legacies more or less important to almost all his servants except one, Jean M— by name, aged 67, with whose conduct he was not satisfied. This man, who is of a violent character, ascribed his exclusion from the will to the influence which two other servants, a married couple, L—, the husband footman, and his wife lady's maid, exer cised over their master and mistress, and he con ceived bitter animosity against them in consequence. He frequently abused the couple, but in the hope that his bad humour would wear off they made no complaint. On Saturday morning this man, seeing Mme. L— in a room on the ground floor, began abusing her. She replied somewhat sharply, and flying into a violent passion, he seized a log of wood and struck at the woman's head, but throwing her self back in terror she only received a slight blow. She cried out loudly for help, and her husband rushing in tried to wrest the log from the man, but was unable to do so, and received a blow on the head which felled him to the ground. Another ser vant, named Bouge, now hurried in, and Jean, draw ing out a large, knife, attempted to stab him, but Bouge after a dreadful struggle, forced the knife from him. Jean then snatched up a large wood chopper, and three servants; 'seeing he was about to attack them with it,' ran in terror to another room and fastened themselves in. He however broke open the door with the chopper, and struck each of them with great fury, inflicting very serious wounds. The two men, though blood was streaming from them, succeeded, after a struggle, in getting the chopper from him; but he then drew forth a razor, and cut Mme. L- with it. He then still in a state of fury, rushed up stairs, and sought refuge on the roof of the house. The police having been sent for arrived at this moment, but seeing that it would be dangerous to follow the man on the roof—where lie was walking'abont in great fury, with a razor in his hand, "and . .4ying thaf,he would murder any one Who should dare to approach him—contented themselves with. guarding the different issues' of that and the adjacent houses, and sent for some firemen. These men ascended to the roof, and two of them; who were armed with swords, advanced resolutely towards the man, and, in spite of his threats to murder them with his razor, ordered him to surrender. The man, seeing that they were not to be trifled with, put his razor in his pocket, and gave himself up. On being searched three razors were found on him. After hiving been interrogated by the commissary of police of the district he was sent to the prefecture of police. Medical assistance being obtained for the victims, it was found that the wounds of Bouge are extremely grave, though it is believed not mortal ; and that those of the married couple also are. serious, especially of the woman, but they do not place their lives in danger.

The constellation of writers who shed a radiance on the early part of the present century is fast vanishing away. Not the least remarkable of these, the historian of the Middle Ages, of the Revival of Letters and of the English Constitution, Henry Hallam, died on Saturday last, at the great age of 81. He has left but few of his companions behind him, and, more than this, it was his bitter fate to outlive those who should have come after him, to _ _ see two sons of rare promise, who should have pre served his name,.go' before him, the pride of his life . snatched from his eyes, the delight of his old age laid low in the dust of death. One of these was that Arthur Henry Hallam, who' died in 1833, arid to whom TennyEon dedicated the remarkable series of poems which have been published under the title of "In Memoriam." The bereaved father was broken-hearted for his son, and spoke of his hopes on this side the tomb being struck down - for ever: A year or two afterwards, when he produced the-" Introduction to the Literature of Europe," there appeared a most affecting passage in the pre face, which to those who knew him, suggested the hidden grief that was .preying on his mind. He referred to the imperfection of his work, to the im possibility of rendering it complete under any cir cumstances, and to the especial impossibility of his doing so. "I have other warnings," he said, "to bind up my sheaves while I may—my own advanc ing years, _ and. the gathering in the .heavens." His hopes, however, revived .as his younger son grew up to manhood. and "scenic& to promise not lets than the' accemplished•youth whom his father had regarded, and .not without. reason, as an only one without a fellow. But this son also, Henry Fitzmaurice Hallam, was taken from him shortly after he had been called to the bar in 1850; and the poor bereaved father buried. him in Clevedon Church, in Somersetshire, by the side of his brother, and. his sister, and his mother. He . selected the place, as he says in his memoir of the eldest son, " not only from the connection a kindred, but on account of its still and sequestered situation on a lone hill that overhangs the Bristol Channel." It is to this hill, and to this channel, and. to this graVe to which now the remains of the old, heartbroken father are to be added, that Tennyson refers in the most pathetic of his poems,— " And the stately ships go on To their haven under the hill! But, 0 for the touch of a vanished hand. And the sound of a voice that is still " Break, break, break, At the foot of thy crags, 0 sea! But the tender grace of a day that is dead Will never come back to me." It is to the same place of rest that the poet refers in the following description, in which he collects together all. the images of stillness, order, and solemnity :-- " The Danube to the Severn gave The darkened heart that beat no more; They laid him by the pleasant shore, And in the hearing of the wave. - cc Thera twiceit-dey the ge4errt fins, Li ‘ , ii The salt sea water passes ly, And hushes half the babbling Wye, And makes a silence in the hills." Among historians we doubt whether there is. to be found one equal to Mr. Hallam in impartiality. There have been historians as erudite ,as he, not less acute, more inspiring as thinkers more elegant as writers.; but for stern justice he is probably without a rival. His unflinching integrity,, his subjugation of personal prejudice, his determination to speak the truth under all - circumstances is one of the rarest things in literature. This perfect frank ness never takes in him the form, which it assumes in minds less accurately balanced, of an imPatient desire to speak unpalatable truths 'in season and out of season: Perhaps there never was a critic who was so little of an egotist, and whose judgment was so little swayed by personal feelings, either of regard for himself or of regard: for others. Here, indeed; one might detect a want in his character as a writer—a want which might scarcely have been observed when he began to write, but which became apparent in his later years, when the tendencies of the age had introduced a new style of history and of criticism. He belonged to 'that school which in history deals with principles rather than with persons, and in criticism deals with poems rather than with poets, books rather than with authors. The tendency of our litera ture of late years has been in a direction entirely opposite. and would seem to represent principles as subordinate to the personages by whom they are illustrated, books as but secondary to the authors from whose pens they have flowed—a ten dency, in fact, which would render biography the base of history, the base of criticism, the base even of philosophy. So strongly has this tendency made itself manifest in our later literature that the pecu liarity of Hallam's manner appears in most start ling contrast, and those who have been null". ed under the more recent system may not be able to enjoy the dry details and impersonal reasonings of the old school. Mr. Hallam, however, in striving to be a classical historian, has shown but little ambition to be a popular one. His works are more for the student than the idle reader. The student finds in them a mine of wealth—unbounded erudi tion, accuracy that has never been impugned, a wise judgment that almost always leaves one satisfied, a brevity of statement that prevents exhaustion, and an elegance of style that draws him along. The reader for mere pleasure would never go through one of Mr. Hallam's works ; and yet in all his writings there are passages instinct with fine feel ing which might well fix the attention of the most desultory reader. Never writing for effect, but conscientiously and laboriously striving to elicit the bare truth, this great historian, whose works are as valuable as any of the same kind that have ever been written, often attains without seeking it an effect which the masters of popular applause might envy. There are few literary men who have reached an eminence to be compared with that of Mr. Hal lam, of whose personal history so little is known to the great public. That he was born in or about 1778, that he was educated at Eton, that from Eton he passed to. Christ Church, Oxford, and that at this University he took his degree in 1799, are almost all the• facts of his early life which have been publishe4. - After living the University he took up his residence in London, joined himself to the Whigs', and acquired his first reputation as a con tributor to the great Whig Review established in the northern metropolis. It was on account of his supposed connection with the Edinburgh Review that he incurred the wrath of Byron, who, in that satire in which he first of all showed his power, referred in ironical terms to " the classic Hallam, much renowned for Greek." Greek, however, was not the peculiar study of our historian, who set himself the task of learning all the Europesi lan guages of importance as the s teppingstone to an acquaintance with the stat e of Euro p e during the Middle Ages. He quietly settled down to his work, marrying in the meantime, and in 1811 rejoicing in the birth of his little Arthur, who was such a marvel of a child that at the age of seven he learnt to read Latin with fluency in a year. It was amid this domestic happ iness and the repose which it provided that, in 1818, he at length gave to the world the first, and, perhaps, the greatest of his wo r k s , th e View of the State of Europe during the Middle A ge s" --a work which, although somewhat expel'. sive and by no means adapted to the popular taste, has gone through a dozen editions. In every page of this history we are struck with the enormous in dustry . and the conscientiousness of the writer, which in union with his sagacity of thought and pith of composition have rendered every work pro duced by him standard of its kind. He waited nine years and then gave to the world his " Constitu tional History of England from the Accession of Henry VII. to the death of George II." Nothing can be more masterly than the manner in which he has here traced the history of the English consti tution from its first faint beginnings to its perfect development. It is a vast treasury of political thought —an armoury of political facts ; in itself the Magna Charta of our liberty and our rights, which bears the sign -manual, not of Kings or their Minis ters, but of the Muse of History. 'After these pub lications Mr. Hallam turned from political to lite rary history, preparing to write a full account of the revival of letters and the various steps by which a literature came to be cultivated in the vernacular in languages of Europe. It was while engaged h this work, and while his heart was fu ll of joy in t e acquirements of his elder son , who had just left College, and who, under his father's was now studying the " Institutes" of Justinian eye, and the "Commentaries" of Blac kstone, now writing short papers for various works,revis of Tennyson for a magazine, biographi es of Burke and Voltaire for the Portrait Galle r y of the Useful Knowledge So ciety, that the great affliction came which seemed for a time to prostrate the historian, and which certainly gave a mellowness to hi s habits of thought as well as a depth of feeling to his whole character that had the happiest influence on his critical dis quisitions. If it be true of the poets that " they lox? in suf fering what they teach in song," it is not less true FALMOUTH DOCKS AND .HARBOUR. A numerous and influential meeting was held in the Town-hall, Truro, on Tuesday last, to support a proposed plan for the construction of docks at Falmouth. Viscount Falmouth, who presided, said that the mails were removed from Falmouth in consequence of the want of two requirements — dock accommodation for steam traffic and a railway. There was now a railway constructed to within 11 miles of the port, and they only wanted dock ac commodation to supply the remaining deficiency. Mr. Tilly, with the aid of a large chart, gave a full explanation of thedetails of the plan. He said that a careful survey of .the harbour had been made by Mr. Abernethy, the engimeer recommended by the Admiralty, who had selected a site for the proposed docks in a well•sheltered position, in proximity to deep water, and affording the utmost facility for in gressund egress of vessels, the rise of tide being 18 feet 6 inches at springs, and 14 feet at neaps. It was intended in the first place to construct a tidal harbour of 12 acres, with 18 feet at low water, spring tides, and a channel of the same depth lead ing out to deep water. TheSe works, with two slips, a dry dock, and warehouses, would be sufficient for the immediate wants of the port; but the under taking comprised also a half tide basin or dock of 8 acres, connected with the harbour, the latter work to be executed whenever required. The entrance into the harbour at Falmouth would be a straight one. There was a dock at Southampton of 10 acres within the tidal harbour, but the entrance was only 46 feet wide, and the large royal mail steamers cannot get in, as they are wider than the entrance across their paddlewheels. At Falmouth the entrance to the tidal harbour dock would be 80 feet wide, and the same to the graving dock, so that, with the exception of the Great Eastern, there would be entrance room for the largest class of ships now afloat. Mr. Tilly proceeded to say that in time of war, especially with France, Falmouth harbour, from its position, would be f still greater import ance than in time of peace. Mr. Baring and Mr. Gurney, the members for Falmouth, had liberally assisted in this project, and Falmouth, although a poor place, had subscribed £37,000 towards it, and, he believed, would subscribe some thousands more.

The gallant sportsman had severely wounded a royal tiger, and was approaching what he believed to be the dying anknal, when it suddenly sprang upon him. The captain endeavoured to savehimself by catching the branch of a tree, but before he could get out of harm's way, the tiger clawed him down, and wounded him in the severest manner, though we trust not dangerously. His friends are anxiously waiting for further information, and we hope may soon be relieved from their present anxieties concerning so bold and adventurous a huntsman.-2lfadras Spectator. • [ AD VERTISEMENT).-:—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.— Sore Throat,'Quinsey, Ulcerated Throat, and Diptherite.— The sere throat, with more or less hoarseness, prevailing at this season o f the year, has for 20 years been treated with the above remedies with a degree of success far sur passing that of any other mode of treatment.

On Thursday last a numerous and influentia vestry meeting of the parishioners of Mottram was held in the church; the vicar in the chair. The meeting had been called by the wardens (Messrs. Henry Heap and William B. Reddish) to take into consideration an " entry made in the parish books without the knowledge of the churchwardens or parishioners, and for other purposes." When the meeting had been opened, the wardens attempted to explain the reasons why they had called the parishioners together, but the Vicar (the Rev. W. H. Jones) immediately commenced to read what he had written in the parish book. An extraordinary confusion of cries and hootings followed. The Vicar, however, read the entry through, no one under standing what it was. When he had finished the wardens tried again to explain the position in which they stood ; whereupon the vicar abused them for having called the meeting without consulting him. The tumult became greater, and at length Mr. Red dish snatched the book from the vicar's hands. The vicar now stated that there was a funeral at four o'clock (the meeting havingbeen called for three),and that he should close the proceedings at that time. The wardens tried again and again to make their statement, but the vicar next began to read his de fence. A motion was made for adjournment to the school room. The vicar refused to put this resolu tion to the meeting till he should have finished reading ; so the wardens put it, and the meeting adjourned, leaving the vicar vociferating that it was an illegal adjournment, and that he would not abide by what might be done.—ln the schoolroom, the senior warden, Mr. Henry Heap, was called to the chair, and Mr. Reddish explained that they had lent the parish book to the vicar, for the purpose of making out a return, that he had kept the book for three weeks, and that when, after some difficulty, it was recovered, no intimation was given that any thing had been written in the book. It was subse quently discovered, however, that, on part of a blank page in the last warden's accounts which had been passed, the vicar had made a memorandum to the effect that, during the year 1858, the south-east corner of the parish church, known as the Staley Chapel, had been wholly remodelled and decorated by a wealthy parishioner (referring to Mr. John Chapman, who has lately purchased Staley Chapel, with the manor of Hattersley, from the Earl of Stamford and Warrington), and that a number, of other things had been done therein without faculty or other ecclesiastical authority ; also that, 40 years ago, the said chapel and church were uniformly te seated with pews by a faculty from the bishop. wi‘ T i li oa., vicar,nertmheeiaodrddum was signed "W.

It was then unanimously resolved that the entry should be erased from the parish book, and that the churchwardens should immediately represent the conduct of the vicar to the bishop. Another resolution absolved the churchwardens from blame, and thanked them for their prompti tude in calling the meeting. The thank of the parish were also tendered to Mr. and Mrs. John Chapman, for the splendid eastern window they had placed in that venerable church. That gentleman was present at the meeting, but took no part in the proceedings till. the business was over, when he thanked them I for their expressions of good will. — Manehester Guardian, 7
