The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, Which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hoed, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertain in g secret doubts of theirtil,,, Physical condition, and who are conscious o f having hazarded ' itealth t h appiness,andprivileges to which every human being is tattled. ce, incurring grievous 13 4 t is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are o,t neipl e , of Personal management which cannot be violated with penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue d_ 3, the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties a ua . b 8 mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, 'tow the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement p to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. m ...uv e published by J.

Ho was very much confused at the announce ment, and referred him to the police-station, as he thought a search warrant was required. He did not observe the last witness outside his shop when he passed the first time. Mr. C. Grant, also an inspector of the D division, said he WAS on duty at th e stat ion at Paddin gton about a quarter past 9 o'clock on Monday night, when Mr. Page came in and informed him of the charge. As it was a most important ono he took him round to the superintendent's house, and upon the arrival of Mr. Hughes be directed him to obtain the assist ance of another inspector and search the prisoner's house. He did so, but could find no trace of any bacon. The next morning lie saw the witnesses, and they gave a similar account of what they saw as they had just done to the court. At 5 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon he apprehended the pri soner at the Mary!ebone Police station, and he then declared that it was entirely false, and that it was also a conspiracy. In searching him he found a red silk handkerchief. • In cross-examination by Mr. Lewis, Inspector . Grant further sa id t h e pr i soner h a d b een 14 years in the force, and bore a most excellent character. Between 5001. and 6001. passed through the pri soner's hands weekly. There were no marks of grease upon the handkerchief. It was perfectly clean when he took it. H e h a d h ear d at t h e Mary lebone Police-court tradesmen complain of the prisoner's severity in summoning them for obstruc tions. Mr. Hughes, at the request of Mr. Lewis, got up to give the prisoner a good character.

He would give no opinion at all about the case. Mr. Wakeling said ulterior proceedings would most decidedly be taken against the prosecutor. The prisoner then left the court. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—John Crawley was charged with picking the pocket of Mrs. Emma Larking, of Gough-street. Mrs. Larking said she was in Regent-stret that day, when the prisoner came up and asked the way to the British Museum. She took some pains to point out the proper road, and the prisoner kept walking by her side, expressing his obligations for the information he was receiving. Feeling some thing like a jerk at her dress, she put her hand down, and caught the prisoner's hand in her pocket. Sho grasped the prisoner's hand, and notwithstanding his struggle to get away, held him until a police-con stable carne up and took charge of him.' Walsh; ate gaoler, proved that the prisoner was an old thiet, and had been twice convicted at this court for picking pockets. Mr. Beadon sent the prisoner to hard labour for three months. Robert Howe, cab driver, was charged with damaging the Earl of Ellesmere's carriage by neg ligent driving, while in a state of intoxication. Nicholas Ryan, tailor, said about 9 o'clock that morning he saw the defendant on the box of a cab coming along at a furious pace. A carriage was afemAiirr anti MA, nes fat man seeing'the defendant about to cross the st reet at a reckless pace called out to him and attempted to pull up, but before he could do this the defend ant ran the cab into the carriage, destroying one of the carriage lamps, and breaking one of the shafts of the cab. The defendant asked if the bit was in his horse's mouth at the time. Witness replied that it was. George Eldon, valet to Lord Ellesmere, was on the box with the coachman at the time of the colli sion. The damage was occasioned entirely by the reckless driving of the cabman, and the state in which lie was at the time. Defendant—lt warn't my fault at all. There was only an old woman on the coach box ; if there had been a regular ooachman it would not have happened. Witness—The coachman had nearly pulled up his horses. Defendant—l wish I'd the bit of wood that era coachman was cut out of, I'd precious soon shove it on the fire, just what it was good for. Mr. Beadon ordered the defendant to pay 2/. Gs., the dsmage, awl fined him 40s. fir negligent driving. WANDSWORTH. —A dark-complexioned young man, who gave the name of Henry Gardiner, and who described himself as a general dealer, was placed in the dock before Mr. Ingham, charged with attempting to rob the house of an old Crimean hero, named John Shelford, residing at No. 1, Surrey-terrace, Battersea-bridge-road. It appeared from the evidence that the prosecu tor was a supernumerary engaged in Battersea New Park, and on Tuesday afternoon about four o'clock he was sitting in the front parlour of his house with his wife, reading the newspaper, when their attention was drawn to a noise in front. As they had had - a -number of windows broken by the boys in the neighbourhood, Mrs. Shelford went to the window to see who was there. However, no person was to be seen, and shortly afterwards the noise was heard in the back parlour. Mrs. Shel ford went into the passage, when the prisoner rurhed out ofthe back parlourand down the kitchen stairs. She followed in pursuit, and the prisoner ran from the back kitchen into the front, and then up the area steps as fast as he was able. Sergeant Dudley, of the V division, happened to be on the ipot, and saw the prisoner run from the steps into the street with a large black bag rolled tightly up in his hand. Suspecting something was wrong. he stopped him, and immediately afterwards Mrs. Shelford came up the area steps, and called out that the prisoner had attempted to rob the house. He was taken inside, and a pa;r of new boats, the property of the prosecutor, were found to be mis sing from the back parlour. On a search being made, the boots were discovered in the front kitohen, no doubt dropped by the prisoner in his fligh t. The prisoner denied being in the house. He said he merely knocked at tl4B kitchen door to 803 if there was anything to sell, and receiving no an swer, he quietly walked out again, when ho was stopped by the officer. Mr. Ingham asked if he was known. Sergeant Dudley said he had not had time to inquire.e refused W h t e h n he his n took t andhe prisoner dress into custody h Mr. Ingham remanded him until Monday for inquiries to be made.

Yesterday a detachment of the Royal Horse Ar tillery, consisting of 216 men, 174 horses, six guns, and 18 carriages, embarked at Liverpool, for Dub lin, in the steamers Trafalgar and Princess. Notices have been posted in the underwriters' rooms at Liverpool for tenders for carrying between Liverpool and the Irish ports an exchange of militia regiments—the English militia regiments now sta tioned in Ireland being about to return to England, and the Irish regiments to Ireland. Major John Frond, of the 55th Regiment, at pre- P." t foresiers nart of the garrison of Dublin died there, after a short illness, was -- —__ r _--_2_ ....,,, on Monday last. The gallant officer had been many years in the regiment, having served in it with dis tinction in India and China. He was one of the most popular of field officers, and his sudden death —the result of a severe cold caught in the discharge of his regimental duties—has cast a deep gloom over all ranks in the 55th. Considerable attention is devoted at Chatham garrison to the instruction of the troops belonging to the depots of the East India Company in the use of the Enfield rifle previously to their departure for India, and about 300 men aro daily undergoing instruction in the use of that weapon. The officers attached to the various depots are also instructed in the use of the Enfield rifle, and the Captains Instructors of Musketry deliver a lecture once in each week to the officers of each battalion in order to make them thoroughly efficient in the theory and practice of that weapon. Yesterday morning, at an early hour, the whole of the troops belonging to the several depots com prising the Ist battalion were drawn up inside the Spur battery, Chatham, for the purpose of witness ing the infliction of corporal punishment on a pri vate of the 32d Regiment named John J ones, who was recently tried by district court-martial, and found guilty of having robbed a recruit, oue of his comrades, of a half sovereign. For this crime he was adjudged, in the first instance, to receive 50 lashes, and afterwards to be imprisoned in Fort Clarence. After the punishment had been inflicted the prisoner was removed to the hospital, on leav ing which he will undergo his term of imprison ment in the military prison at Rochester. Admiralty orders having been received at Chat ham dockyard for the Midge and Tiuy screw gun boats to be forwarded immediately to Portsmouth, the Adder steamvessel, Mr. Minchin, actiug second master, left that port yesterday morning for Ports mouth with those gunboats in tow. The Growler screw gunboat is to be sent to Devonport to be placed in reserve at that port. The Glocester, 50, attached to the ordinary at Chatham, has been brought into harbour for the purpose of being fitted as a receiving ship for the crews of the vessels of war fitting for sea. The Rhadamanthus, 4, paddlewheel steamer, Master Commander F. R. Sturdee, hauled up, to Chatham dockyard yesterday morning for the pur pose of unshipping war stores brought from Ports month. The American ship Adirandack, Taylor master, arrived at Chatham on Tuesday evening, from Moulmein, with a cargo of teak timber for the dockyard. The battalions of light infantry composing the Royal Marines and East Kent and Oxford Militia Regiments assembled on Woolwich common yester day morning and performed a series of brigade movements, under the direction of Col.

Mr. Sleigh was counsel for the prosecution, Mr. Metcalfe for the defendant . The prosecutor stated that he was stationed on board the Electric Spark, lying in the Victoria Dock, and he went onboard tie defendant's ship, lying in the same dock, on the !id of April, to de liver to the custom's officer an official document. The defendant said he would break his back if he came on his ship. On the 11th he went again for a similar purpose, and he again threatened him, without provocation. On the 12th, defendant and his captain came on board the Electric Spark, where he was, and the captain said—Lid you say my mate walked away when a man wanted to fight him . ? Witness said he did say, so; whereupon the de fendant struck him a blow on the left ear, which sruc~`im again in seledefen e g; v t ilier; - he knocked him down, and while down kicked him on the fore head.

Committed for trial. ERK PROGRESS OF TELEGRAPIC INTENTION. Last night, at the weekly meeting of the Society of Arts, Mr. C. W. Siemens read a paper " On the Progress of the Electric Telegraph." The author said the object he had more particularly in view was to trace the gradual progress of this invention since the time of its first appearance, with a view to establish more clearly its present position, and to point out the direction in which we should pro cee 1, in order to realise still greater results. Many attempts to construct an electric telegraph were made in the last century, with frictional electricity, but with little success, until Semmering, of Munich, constructed, in 1808, the fist vol'aic telegraph ; producing signals by the decomposition of water. The discovery of electro-magnetism, however, turned the tide of invention into another direction. Ampere was the first to propose an electro-magnet needle telegraph, consisting of 24 needles and 25 line wires, the extra line being intended for the metallic return circuit common to all. Ritchie exeeuted in 1832 a model of Ampeee's telegraph, with some improvements. The first working elec tric telegraph was established by Gause and ‘Veber; at Gottiugen, in 1833, and consisted of wires care ried a distance of a mile on high posts over the town. The magneto-electric current was used tO wotk it. S'eitiheil, of Munich, produce], in 1837, his needle printing and acoustic instrument, which he first tried at Munich through about five mile of suspended line wire, and shortly afterwardii upon a railway near Frankfort. At the time whet) Steinheil was absorbed in his labour, Pro, fessor Wheats• one was also engaged upon a series of experiments on the velocity of elec tricity, with the view to the construction of electric telegraphs, and in June, 1857, he joined Mr. Cooke in a patent for a needle telegraph of five-line wires (besides one wire for the return cur• rent), and as many needles, which, by a system of permutations, could be so deflected that any /ette* of the alphabet was poin•ed out ; upon a diam on d shaped board by the convergence of two needles towards it. The line wires were proposed to be coated with insulating material, such as fibroua substances saturated with pitch, and to be drawti into leaden pipes, in order to exclude the moisture of the ground. An experimental line of telegram ou this principle was established the same year at the Easton Railway Station. In 1838, Morse, au American, deposited an instrument of his construc tion at the Paris Academy of Sciences. His inven tion consists chiefly in the substitution of electro magnets for nedles in the construction of a recording instrument, which in other respects is similar to Steinhsil's. The object, however, an important one, was to render the instrument power ful and csrtiin in its action. Other countries had taken up the subject, and in Prussia a royal com mission was appointed to consider and advise upon the system to be adopted, of which commission the author's brother, Mr. Werner Siemens, became an active member. The commission was in favour of an underground system, aui this led Mr. Werner Siemens to apply gutta percha as an insulator. The author described the instrument proposed by his brother at this time which required only a single 'wire, and which was stated to be simple and effec tive. Ile then explained n umerous other instruments and appliances which had been used for teleeraphic purposes, and passed on to the subject of submarine conductors. The first experiments to submerge an insulateds conductor (which consisted of copper wire covered with cotton thread, saturated with pitch and tar), were made at Calcutta in 1839 by Dr. (now Sir William) O'Shaughtiessy. Professor Wheatstone proposed in the following year to establish a telegraph cable between England and France, and the cable he intended to use contained six separately insulated copper wires, which were protected by a strong sheathing of wire. Submarine telegraphs must, however, have proved impracti cable, but for the timely discovery of gutta percha. Thefirst successful attempts to establish subaqueous conductors were made by the author's b' other, Mr. Werner Siemens, in 1848, in the Bay of Kiel, and in crossing the Rhine at Cologne, and other rivers. The first attempt to establish a subequeoui con ductor across the open sea (from Dover to Calais) was made by Woollaston in 1851. It consisted of a gutta percha coated copper wire, without external protection, and failed immediately after it had been laid. In the same year, Crampton laid a cable between the same places successfully. This cable was sheathed with iron wire, according to Messrs. Newell and Co.'s process. The author touched upon the mechanical difficulties of laying submarine cables, and then discussed at some length the sub ject of the electric condition of the submerged con ductor. He considered it to be established that telegraphic cables not exceeding one thousand miles in long h may be worked satisface:irily, and that consequently all reasonable doubts about the suc cessful operation of a line from London to Calcutta may be considered as removed. For distances ex ceeding 1,000 miles, however, he is of opinion that the difficulty of sending messages at an efficient rate, for commercial purposes, remains yet to be solved ; for he thinks that theory and experience combine to prove that the highest rate likely to be attained 1 , 1 working through a distance equal to the intended Atlantic cable will not exceed four, cr it may be five words per minute, unless some new principle of working be discovered. There would be one way, indeed, in which the capabili ties, net only of long submarine cables but of electric telegraphs generally, might be greatly in creased, which consists in combining a number of insulated line wires iato one cable, and working them in metallic couples. Thus, if a cable of 10 wires was laid between two great commercial centres, say between London and Liverpool, as many as 48 pairs of instruments might be used, which might be placed is the counting-houses of greet merchants and of their respective agents for their private correspondence. The instrument that appears to he best suited for such purposes is a magneto-electric step-by-step or dial instrument, which requires no battery. These had been exten sively adopted on the Continent, and were in use at the War-office and at the Horse Guards. 0 3 1 - 1. 1.

Department of the Storekeeper General of the Navy, Somerset-place, 10th April, 1858. THE Commissioners for executing the Office of Lord High Admiral of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland do Hereby Give Notice, that on TUESDAY, the II th May next, at Two o'clock, they will be ready to treat with such per sons as may be willing to contract for supplying and delivering into her Majesty's Dockyards at Deptford, Portsmouth, and Devon port, with 29,770 BOLTS OF CANVASS. (including 720 Bolts of 18 inches wide) to be delivered by the 31st of December next. Tenders may be made for any quantity not less than 1,000 Bolts, and no tender will be received unless made on the printed form, properly filled up, which, together with Instructions , or making the Canvass," may be obtained on application to this office. No tender will be received after Two o'clock on the day of treaty, nor any noticed unless the party attends, or an agent for him duly authorised in writing. Every tender must be addressed to the Secretary of the Admiralty, and bear in the left-hand corner the words, " Tender for Canvass," and must also be delivered at Somerset-pace, accompanied by a letter signed by two responsible persons, engaging to become hound with the person tendering in the sum of 251. per Cent. on the value for the due performance of the Contract. THE BUD6ii (From the Ttftee City Article ) The subjoined communication meets clearly se veral technical questions which have been sug gested in connection with the budget : " Sir,—Permit me briefly to state my impres sions of so much of the new budget as involves an extension of credit upon three and a-half millions of pecuniary obligations arrived at maturity. will not such extension be convenient and advantageous both to the lenders and the borrowers? " The creditors in respect of two millions in Exchequer Bonds, atßk per cent. expiring in 1858, would. gladly. renew them; because certain like bonds not expiring until a year later have recently commanded i n th e intrae6 a price higher by about 1 per cent. A similar indication of market opinions upon impendi ng rates of interest is afforded by the 31. be w prices of Ex c h equer bi lls. Those which pay 24d. per cent. per di em —i .e., Ir6eso.eotdd. at p omesrane num —until Juno only, then torate determined by the then prospects of the market, are actually cheaper than th e bill s recentlyem i tted at 2d. per cent. per diem—i.e., 3/. Os. 10d. only per annum—but which are safe against further reduction until March, 1859. " Consequently, if tenders were invited from the holders of snec;fic bonds or bills (indiscriminately) maturing in 1858, to be exchanged for obligations which are not to mature until a later date, an'ag ,gregate of premiums might be obtained to the ad vantage of the Exchequer,land each creditor would ei.joy his option of ren-wing or being paid off. " The 1i millions Consols purchaseable with the so-called sicking fund might be any part of the number of millions which constitute that part of the national debt. In this case the creditors have ex pected such support of the market price of Consols as might result from the purchase of millionsby driblets unostentatiously. Their compensation and something more is the reassurance that there need be no emission of a corresponding amount of new Consols heralded by the usual eclat and at one coup. " There still remains the virtual breach of a pledge solemnly given for the redemption of 3i millions of debt in 1858. " This raises a question either between ourselves Land rinsiterity, or between the usufruct of realised property in 1858 and the like in certain succeeding pars. 'lf the specific debt .9f 34 millions is to be deferred indefinitely, then a burden is shifted from our own shoulders, and thrown upon the industry of the country in the future. If, however, our own income bearing property be charged with the debt deferred for a reasonably short term, then we do not evade our obligations in spirit, but simply ob tain a longer term of credit by concert with our creditors the term being short enough to reconcile our immediate heirs to a temporary charge upon any unexpectedly early succession. " Such a charge would be a present undertaking to sustain beyond 1860, if necessary, so much of the reduced property-tax as may be required to extinguish the deferred 3i millions within a conve niently short term. " J. A. F." THE COMMISSIONERS Or CUSTOMS' REPORT. `•••••••••- - - The annual report of the Commissioners of Cus toms has just been issued, detailing the operations of the year 1857. The total receipts were only 22,956,3711. against 24,206,8441. in 1856, owing to the reductions of duty on tea, sugar, coffee, dec., and the curtailment of consumption resulting from the commercial crisis, although this was felt to a less extent than might have been anticipated. In the consumption of the chief foreign commodi ties used in this country there has been au increase in all but four—namely, cocoa, coffee, spirits, and wire. In the imports of almost all articles of raw material there was a considerable augmentation, cotton being the only exception of importance. Tables are given of the fluctuations of trade at the several ports of the kingdom, whence it appears, as regards Customs' receipts, that nearly all the Scotch ports show an increase, and nearly all the Irish a deci!ease. Detiils are likewise furnished of the steps taken to carry out the resolution adopted last year under Parliam , ntary sanction to discon tinue the exclusive custody of bonded tobacco. Henceforth it may be stored like all other goods in trade warehouses, and arrangement 4 are being carried out for the sale or sur render of the premises hitherto held by the Crown for this purpose. The practice of petty smuggling by passengers is said still to prevail to a considerable extent. Not withstandieg the liberal construction of the Customs' officers as to the amount of new articles of wearing apparel allowed to bass flee, "some gentlemen, many ladies, and more ladils' maids are still silly and perverse enough to risk pounds to save pence, and both incur and in flict endless trouble and annoyance for the tremu lous and vulgar joy of cheating the revenue." Some strict examples have, therefore, been lately made, and a cautionary notice a'so has b en posted in every baggage office. With regard to the frauds committed by Moore, a tea merchant at Belfast, who last year obtained access to a bonded store, and removed 800 chests of tea without payment of duty, it is stated that although Moore is sines shown to have been guilty also of direct robbery, it was the opinion of the law officers that the proof against him was not technically of the character to warrant a demand for his extradition from the United States, whether he is known to have fled. His sureties, however, have paid 3,0001., and as some property has been seized and proceedings for .a r.Tovery of duty are in progress against parties who made purchases of tea from him without due care, it is thought the Crown will eventually lose little. On the subject of the importation of foreign goods bearing British marks some important state ments are made. When dutiable articles are im port ed bearing marks intended to give them' a Bri tish character they are refused entry and required to be re-turned to the port of shipment except where neutralised by the introduction of a foreign word, and in those graver cases whore they bear the ac tual names of British manufacturers they are con fiscated and destroyed. A valuable protection is thus afforded to our manufacturers against fraud and forgery. But of late there has been a rapidly growing practice among English manufacturers themselves, especially of clocks, watches, pencils, steam-gauges, and various articles of glass, to get their goods wade abroad and to import them stamped with their own names or brands. In this case, under a Treasury order which permits it, the articles are admitted to duty on the application of the manu facturer, and the Commissioners properly suggest the consideration whether he is not thus enab'ed himself to practise a fraud upon the purchaser analogous to that from which the law protects him when meditated by others. "At all events," they add, "it seems right the public should be made aware that the fact of any article bearing a British maker's name no longer affords any security that it is actually of British workmanship." The regula tion allowing the baggage of through passengers from Paris to London by certain trains to be exa mined at London-bridge station has been extended and rendered permanent, and more than 14,000 persons have been accommodated by it. This fa cility involves an outlay of 7501. without any re turn, and the opportunity is taken to point out that, however desirable all arch arrangements may be, they necessarily involve an increased expenditure, of which the public must not complain. A new system of bookkeeping is in course of introduction at the outports, which promises to effect great the nomy of time and money. The publication ofenhue statistical tables connected with trade and . revTar__ will likewise be accelerated.
