The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con iemences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Vouth, degradation in Man hoNi, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any - niter class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of .heir physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is . . . _ It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated with o it incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue ce,d the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties arty be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, in how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all, that there bi scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

THE CAUSES OF THE INDIAN MUTINY. The following important paper, receive ] by the last mail from Calcutta, is headed " A few words relative to the late mutiny of the Bengal army and the reb2llion in the Bengal Presidency, by Shaik Hedayut Ali, subaclar and 9irdar bahadoor, Bengal Sikh Police Battalion, commanded by Captain T. Rattray, who has translated this paper from the origin al , 0 ord : " I deem it my duty, as far it lies in my power, to explain what has led to the disafectio❑ lately so universally evinced both by the native army and many of the sirdars or chieftains throughout Hin dost an. " It is well known to the British Government, and to all the world, that the country of Hindostan in former times was almosi; solely inhabited by people of Flindoo persuasion, and that many years afterwards the Mahomedans conquered the country; and it is also well known that the Hiudoos are pro verbi thy foolish, on the score of religion, and deem no religion equal to their own. " To the best of my belief and understanding, the first symptoms of disaffection to the British Go vernment on th.. 3 part of the Sepoys were shown in 1833, when an army from Hindostan was ordered Cabul. When this army crossed the Indus to At took the Sepoys became discontented, grumbling, and angry. They heard that when Rajah Ma,un Sing, Wuzeer of one of the former emperors of Delhi, crossed the Indus to wage war with the Afghans he caused all the Brahmins to take off their japer), or sacred thread worn by Brahmins and emblematic of their caste, and told all his men that the Hiudoo religion extended no further than the Indus. Maun Sing built a temple on the other side the Indus, and in this temple the Brahmins were directed to suspend their janeo. This fact is well known to all 'Endow, whether literate or the reverse. " One of the customs of the Hindoos is never to eat or cook their food until they have bathed and gone through other forms of their religion. When, in 1838-39, the army reached Affghanistan, the Hindoos left off bathing and the performance of other acts which their form of religion demanded on account of the extreme cold, to which they were unaccustomed. " Whatever they purchased in the bazaar for their daily food they were compelled to take from the hands of Mahomedans, because in the Cabul country all the Buneeahs, with few exceptions, are of the Mahomedan faith. Tho Hindoos being obliged, as above stated, to abstain from certain acts of their religion (bithing, which to a Hindoo is almost as necessary as his daily food), and to re ceive their bread from the hands of Mahomedans, fancied they had lost their caste, and had been forced to beemne Mahomedans ; they therefore be c,tine much dissatisfied and disgust'd. " When the winter set in at Cabul the Hindos tanee Sepoys suffered much from the snow and cold. The commanding officers, pitying their condi tion, gave to each man a posteen or jacket, made of sheepskin, the wool worn inwards. The sepoya at the time pretended much to be pleased with the pasteons, but really in their hearts were much displeased, because no Hindoo, except of lowest caste, likes to touch the skin of a dead animal. Fearing to object, they consented to wear them. They thought and talked openly among themselves, We must not show our anger and discontent in this country, because if we do we shall never be able to return to Bindostan, and we cannot live in this country ; so they kept quiet, only to show their anger and discontent on a more opportune occasion. They, moreover, thought that even if they did mutiny in that country, and killed all the English, they would be no better off, becaus3 the Afghans would compel them to become Ma homedan9. Many Sepoys of the 27th and 54th Native Infantry, who were wounded and taken prisoners, were converted to A.lahomedanism. Don't let any English gentleman think that the above is not true, because they were not acquainted with it at the time. A native of Hind.ostan seleom , opens his mind to his officer—he only says what he thinks would please his offi,:er. The se poys reserve their real opinion until they return to their lines and to their comrades. " When the English returned to Ferozepore in 1842 1 was there with the light company of my regiment (the Btla Native Infantry), in which my father was a subadar. Eight light c impanies were formed into one regiment, and were under orders for Affghanistan, but were never sent. I was then a private. I visited nearly all the regiments that had returned from Cabul, having many friends and acquaintances in them. The sepoys of all the' regi ments wore displeased at having been sent to Cahill, and said of themselves that by going to Cabul they had become outcasts to their religion, by having been compelled to clothe themselves with the skins of animals, to abstain from bathing, and other acts demanded by their religion, in consequence of the country being so unfitted for Elindocs on account of the great cold, and the whole country being Mahomedans. " The Mahomedans of the regiments were dis pleased because they said the Ditish Government had forced them to fight against people of their own creed, which was forbidden in the Koran. For saying this a subadar of the 27th Native Infantry was shot to death by musketry. The Mahomedans always boasted among themselves how they had evaded the English order by never taking aim when they fired. " None of the lliudoos in Hindostan would eat with their comrades who went to Afghanistan, n would they even allow them to touch their cooking utensils ; they looked upon them all as outcasts, and treated them accordingly. It was said that the sepoys of the 27th Native Infantry who were snit up in Gnuzuee were all compelled to become Mahomedans. "At Ferozer,ore, Zalim aubadar in the 71st Nativa Infantry, told the men of the 35tla Light Infantry that they had lost their caste and become Mahomedans, and that consequently none of their comrades could eat or smoke with them. For this offence he was tried by general court mat tial and dismissed the service. When the sepoys of other regiments heard how the sepoys who went to Affgbanistan were treated by their own com rades, and heard what hardships they had under gone in Aff2hanistan, they became exceedingly dissatisfied and displeased with the Government for having ordered them there, and determined on the first favourable opportunity to show their feelings. " The first symptoms of mutiny broke out in the 64th Native Infantry, who were ordered to Scinde on their arrival at Sukhar, and I believe previous to their arrival there they mutinied about their pay. The 7th Light Cavalry and several other regiments showed a most in mutinous spirit, but byou I hanging a few men the 64t0, and trans porting and dismissing others, the Government took but little notice of the bad feeling evinced. "Some years after this the British went to war with the Sikhs, and annexedthePunjab to their do minions. On the annexation the native army occu pied the country, and the Sepoys received double batta as long as they remained in the Punjab, but the British Government never openly proclaimed how long bath would be granted.

It is right f o r e very one to receive according to his deserts. The 32d and 22d Native Infantry also showed symptoms of mu tiny, but they were hushed up. The Government must be well aware that when a soldier has once or twice shown a disposition to mutiny he is useless as a soldier, one mutinous sepoy infects his whole com pany, arid gradually one man after ano her, either from fear or sympathy, joins-the mutineers. " It is very necessary when any sepoy or sepoys mutiny that the commanding officer of the regiment should report fully the whole circumstance to the Government ; how otherwise can Government be e ime aware of the lac', and make proper arrange ments to prsvent the mutinous feeling from sprea 'ing ? "Many commanding officers to my knowledge reported their regiments all right when they knew that there were discontent and bad feeling in the ranks, and, to my belief, for the sake of the name of their respective regiments concealed the real state of their regim-nts until at - length the sepoys took to murdering their officers. "I feel perfectly convinced that up to the pre sent time the real cause of the mutiny, and the feeling of the country generally against the British rule, is not well kuo wn to the State. It is for this .reason that I am now taking the liberty of expres sing my views on the subject. " I will now attempt to explain why the sirdars and higher classes of Hindostan became disoffected to the 1.1 , itish Government. " In 1849 or 1850 the authorities at Sabarunpore caused a large hospital to be built for the sick of all creeds and persuasions. The principal authori ties ,_ ( r purposely abstain from giving names, al though I could do so) issued a proclamation saying that all sick men or w, men, high or low, 'pa, dab nishi on' (those who never go out in public), or others, must r esor t t o thi s h osp i ta l f or treatmen t, and all nat i ve practitioners were forbidden to pre scribe or a tt en d s i ck people. When the meaning of this p roc l amation was explained to the chief people the y collected many men tog,•ther for the s purpose of m a ki ng a di s t ur b ance , f or s h ese p eop l e imagined in th e i r ignmauce that it was the inten tion of the British to take away the dignity and honour o f a ll ; on ' his account they became angry and exeit d, and determined to offer opposition, but for want of arms they could do not hi ng. Wh en the authwities saw the bad feeling the proclama tion had produced they withdrew it, and the ex citement fora time subsided. " A year or two after this my regiment, the Bth Native Infantry, was cantered aCShahjehanpore. I was in the habit of visiting the chief people of the city. In course of convetsaiion these people said to me, ' If any o f our b rothers comm i t any o ff ence against th e S , ate accsrding to the nature of the offence and by the laws of the laud they get pun ished ; this is all very right and proper, and we have nothing to say against it, but that law must be bad which by its inflic ion ruins our for in s t ance , w h en an y o ne is se n t e n ce d to imprisonment , immedia'ely on his reaching the p on his bea r d an d moustac h e are cu t ; t hi s to us religion isrio a_ great insult. In gaol it is ordered that the prison rs should eat in nasss?s, the M dromedan.s by themselves, and the Hindoos by themselves ; this is no outrage t i a M a h omedan, b ut i t i s a great one to the feelings arid religion of a Hindoo. One Hindoo won't eat from the hand of another unless they happen to be brothers or cousins." The Go - vernment is also well aware that there are many kinds of Brahmins ; for instance, there are Tewa roes, Dhobiee, Choubies, Paundes, Missers, Opt of these, though all Bralleai , Opt diahs, Saokhuls, Baghpais, Agunitri s, &c. ; none other's hind —that is, won Brahmins, will eat from each 't eat what the other cooks. I ask, what is the use of such men in any army ? To give an instance, among the 50 Sikhs of this regiment lately besieged at Arrah there was a Hindostanee Brahmin; this ma n , f ur five or six drank anything ; at the end soredu ce d th a t h e cou ld scarce this ly e s i t t ti h ma neither ate h e wagßnoo rvasofno use in the garrison, even had he been trusted ; the other men, Euro- P O e n an ac o c r ot S n ' i k t o 's f ' ' thesecanie o ut as w e ll as t h ey wen t i n . prison arrangements it was the general opinion that the Government wished to do away with ail caste. When any Hindoo is released from prison he is always tabooed by his family, and looked upon as having lost caste. On this account both the prisoner and his relatives become disaf fscted towards the G ivernment. The above strict ness was carried out in nainY gaols, in consequence of which disturbances broke out in the Gyab, Assail, B.enares, and many other gaols. "After these events the missionaries requested all the moulavies and pundits (ISTahomedan and H asked them why they shut nil their women ; that they ind ought g p h r t i e t ,t s) oletto them assemble, h o l l e a , likean d when assembled women of other countries ; toldthem they ought not to circumcise their children, or give them the janeo, or marry them 18 years of age ; an d that none should be carried out with outouftit theil they the permission of the magistrate of the district. above were forms These questions and remarks caused great fears in the minds of both the matiornedans and the Hin doos. They said among theinFelves, 'lf the Govern ment insists upon our acting up to these orders, what next shall we not be compelled to do against our customs and religion V To talk over this mat er many persons of both religions assembled in Calcutta. The mis ionaties of the Mofussil also spoke t o the same effect to the villagers, so that all, more or less, became alarmed for their religion and displeased with the Government, for they thought "The Government is well aware that the gene rality of the inhabitants of Hindostan are unedu ca ed and extremely bigoted, and the more educated they are the more bigoted; they have no books or literature, and tbink what their fathers did before tht m must be the best, for instance, they wear the same clothes, of the same pattern as their ancestors did before them, and imagine that if they put on a coat or trousers of an English cut it indicates a Christian ; they think any thing new or anything they don't understand must be meant, in some way or other, to affect their religion. "From this foolishness on their part all the late anarchy and ruin have come to pass. "In 1856 the British Government annexed the kindorn of Ouie. At the time of annexation it wa3 the talk of the whole of liindostan that the British Government had promittei the ruler of Oude (I be lieve there was a treaty to the same effect) that,the kingdom of Oude should never be taken by the English, because in former times the Kings of Oude had rendered valuable assistance to the British Go vernment. " When the Government of India issued the pro clamation of the annexation throughout Oude, the King of Oude also issued a proclamation tha', on no account should any of his subjects resist the Biitish authorities, and that when the British troops en tered his territory all assistance in the shape of pro visions should be afforded. The sirdars of Oude and the army of the King ob,tyed his order. The people of Hindostan likewise said, The country of Oude belongs to the King, and, whether he has done well or ill as regards his own Goveinment, he has not injured or broken faithiwiltn , tke Engkiehjr:n any, way ; if tlie - BritiSh - t4Overnmerii &thrones a ring who has ever been so faithful to them, what inde pendent Nawab or Rajah is safe ?' Fir the above mentioned reasons every sirdar who had anything to lose began to fear and susrect the B; itish Go vernment; but they felt that they were helples, having no army with which to resisr, and so they remained quiet, baiting for a favourable opportu nity to rise. _ _ The feeling of the people of Oude became known to me in the following manner :—I was pro ceeding to join the Sikh regiment Captain Rattray was raising in the Punjab, and arrived at Cawn pore on the 14th March, 1856. On that day the Nawab of Oude also reached Cawnpore on the way to Calcutta. I remained at Cawnpore six days, and had frequent interviews witu the King's vakeels, courtiers, and servants. No one but his own people ever saw the King. The principal people of Cawnpore, and many of the native office! s and sepnys from the regiment stationed at Cawn p ire, had interviews with the valteels and servants of the King. They were all of opinion that the Government hid acted unjustly in annexing the untry of Oude, and they all sympathized with the King and his sirdars. "The vakeel, or minister, of the Bithoor chief (the Nana Sa , :ib, who is so well known for his perfidy and cruelty) was present, and said how displeased and angry his master was with the British for annexing Oude. "The serai in which I had taken up my tempo rary abode became so full with the King's people and their visitors that I was com - pelled to leave it. I went and lived with Shaik Rsheern, a subadar in the 2d Company of the Ist Native Infantry. 1 learnt from this officer that the sepoys of his regi ment were all indignant at the King of Oude being dispossessed of his kingdom, and talked among themselves as to the little fai' h that could be p'aced in the English after their treatment of the King, who, laina,elf and his progenitors, had been so faithful to them, A few days after this I proceeded and joined my new corps at Lahore, and returned with it to Bengal. "On the march down I heard that the Native Infantry Regiments at Barr ickpore were beginning to show symptoins of mutiny, so f om time to time I learnt all I could of their prcceeflings, which I duly reported to the commanding officer of my regiment. I have no hesitation in asserting that the re bellion first commenced in Calcutti, when the King of Oude was tither a prisoner or under sur veillome. " The reason for the mutiny breaking out at Ciwnpore is this, as stated above. The King, (I Oude reached Cawripere in Dec. 1856, and stayed there 12 or 15 days, aud the inhabitants oft awnpore and the sepoys hal many opportunitiei of plinuing mutiny and rebellion. The annexation of Oude, in addition to - their imaginary grievances, caused a universal disaffection throughout the army, and from that time it dete mined upon mutinying. " When the country of the Punjab was taken by the British a general order was issued that in every line regiment 200 Sikhs and Punjarree Mahomedans were to be entertained. " MauycommaudingofficPrs enlisted the required number, some 150. When the Sikhs and Mattorn nuedaus came for enlis•meet the commanding offi cers promised that they would never interfere with their hair and beards ; on this stipulaton the Pun jaboe Mahumedans in particular took service will ingly. Some years afterwards a general order was issued by General Anson, the late commander in chief, directing the Mahomedana to cut their beards after a prescribed fashion. On this trder being understood the Punjabees petitioned their respec tive commanding officers, saying, ' When we en listed we were promised that our beards should not be cut, and tine cti not and will not cut them.' • " This was reported by the exu-wri 4 .i.ig 4 , ffic• , rs to the Commander-iu-Chief, but his Excellency rem, e be dismi-sed the service. o f v :r: s d e l 'e l d i r d t not o s. should b i s b i t e t e c i w a e r t r o r e i e tdthor a b n u d t tdirected. e t h w a h t t r b e Many Punjab sepnys, rather than have their beards teudied, took their discharge and went to their homes. These men, on the road, bitterly complained how the commanding officers had broken faith wita them, and said there was no dependence to be plac,:d up )11 the English, —they say one thing and do another. The Hindos- tanee sepoys were also much displeased with this beard•cutting order and with the way that the Pun jabees had been treated. Several good men, who took their discharge on account of thii order, re enlisted in this regiment, and I have often heard them talking about this order, and how they had lost so many years' service.. " In Sept., 1856, a general order was issued, to . , the effect that all 'recruits hereafter enlist must swear that they would go wherever their services were required. When the old sepoys heard of this order they were much frightened and di.pleased. Up to this day those men who went to Aflghania tan have not been readmitted to their caste ; how are we to know where the English may not force us to go ? They will be ordering us next to go to Lon don.' As I have said above, any new order issued by Government is looked upon with much suspicion by the native army, and is much canvassed in every regiment. " Lately the British Government desired to in troduce the English rifle into the ranks of the native army for this simple reason—the rifle can throw a ball with accuracy soma 900 yards, and conse quently is much superior to the musket. It was of course given by the Government, with a view to save the sepoya lives in action, but the natives of this country are such ignorant, bigoted fo ds that they never will believe anything is intended for their good. Three depots were appointed for the purpose of teaching the new rifle exercise ; one was stationed at Dum-Dum, one at Umb tlla, and one at Sealkote ; one Naik and four sepoys, one European officer, one native officer, and one havil dar, were to be sent to learn the use of the new rifle. When these men were learning a Kalassie from Fort William went to the sepoys who were on duty at the fort, and told theta that the cartridges of the new rifle were made up with the fat of cows and pigs, and that if they bit these cartridges they would lose all caste. On hearing this great sus picion seized their hearts ; the Brahmins especially objected to touch these cartridges, but were told that the Government wo old force them. When they saw the cartridges th.y said—' If we touch these cartridges we shill lose caste ; so how cm we put our teeth in them?' About this time the men at Dam-Dum wrote letters to all the regim-nts in the service. From reading these letters the tth de army were induced to believe the time was come when the Government intended to force them all to Chris tianity. All this was told me by the regiments at Dinapore. " From this imperfect relation of facts the Go vernment will perceive that for the last 16 ye trs the sepoys have been becoming more and more mu tinous. The different orders, as above described, viz., the mrst.ing together in gaol, the remarks and proclamations of missionaries, the annexa.ion of Oude, the swearing in of reer its to go wherever they were ordered, and the arrival of the new rifle, set the whole country and army mad.' The chief tains and sirdars kept constantly telling the sepoys that it was better to die than to give up their reli gion. For this reason alone the 19th N.I. at Be"' rhampore mutinied, and when this regiment was ordered down to Calcutta to be disbanded threyg_ to out wherever they went that they wer e ma v'' * NO MORE PILLS NOR ANY OTHER MEDICINE CURES (a ithout Physic) of Indigestion (Dyspepsia), Constipation, Flatulency, Phlegm, all Nervoui, Bilious, and Liver Complaints, Hysteria, Neuralgia, Dysentry, Diarrhoea, Acidity, Palpitation, Heartbur .i, Headache.

The Government wanted us to bite the cartridges, and thus lose our caste, but we would not do it.' This was not hi ng but ies on their pa r t, b e cause the Goyernwent never issued the new cattrid.es to them at all ; the old blank cartridges that they had been in the ha bit of using were alone issued ; no new rifles had 13,en issued to any except the depois, so why should the Government have issued carttidges ? When , he regiments at Meerut heard that the 19th had been disbanded for, as they thought, objt-cong to touch the new cartridges, they came to the determination to mutiny. Then the commanding officers began to promise their men that they should never be forced to use the rifle ; hut the sepoys would not believe them, but called them liars, firmly believing what teir countrymen and comrades told them. At this time the whole were alike in a state of mutiny. "The force at Meerut having mutinied, and mur dered as many officers as they c.uld, went off :o the King of Delhi and proclaimed him King. They told him that the whole army had thrown off their allegiance to the British, and were now at his dis posal ; ' So now,' said the native officers, 'you are our chosen and hereditary King. Give the order, and we will rnake arrangements to fight thcse CAffres of English.' "The King of Delhi has had very little inter-, course with the w o rld, a n d s till less w i t h th e na ti ve army, except latterly for treasonable purposes ; but he readily believed what the troops told him, and at once proclaimed himself King, and prepara tions to fight were at once commenced. When the troops at Cawnpore heard what was going ott'at Delhi they mutinied, anti - wOxe ready b march tp Delhi but the traitor Narra Sahib "hayingiaken arms, persuaded them to stay with him. The acts of cruelty performed by this fiend are now patent to all. This wretch thought that by the change of government he would become one of the ma;natts of the land. It was he who ordered the sepoys to kill all the Europeans, their wives, and their little olie3. I don't think the sepoys would have killed their officers had the Nana Sahib not instigated thew to do so ; but in Hindostan one man acts as his fell )1v does. "In due course of time the regiments at Dina pore mutinied, and pit themselves under a Rajpoot sTiar, Knoer Singh, of Judespore. Wi h these three regiments Kooer Sin 4 ll thought himself:stroll°. enough to defy the English, and he proclaimed himself Ittjah of Shababad, which tile he retained for about a week. At the time of this mutiny I was with the head-quartets of my corps at Patna, and 1 did all iu my power to prevent the sepoys from mutinying, but to no purpose; they looked always upon me as not one of their own brotherhood. When I knew the time had arrived for these regi ments to mutiny I reporiel the circumstance to my commanding officer and tho Commissioner of Patna, Mr. Wm. T4ylor, and these gentlemen made their arra4getnents to prevent the city of Patua frontoliting. My early information enabled all the E/ropeaus and their families to as semble at the Commissioner's house, and all 1 did to show my loyalty, both at Patna and Dina pore, aro well known to the authorities at those places, and doubtless this has been reported to the Government, as I have been handsdinely rewarded. "It is perhaps needless for me to state that since the English came to Hindostan they have always t-een most particular in no. interfering wish the re ligion and. prejudices of the people, but in my humble opinion they have erred in only entertainitig high caste people in their army. I really believe z:hat had the inferior castes been entertained, as is the pract'cs in the Bombay army, the rebellion never •would have reached the height it has done. What can it signify, as long as a young man is of the re quisite physique, whether he is of a high or low caste ? I believe had the men of low caste been en tertairiA they would have clone anything or gone anywhere the Government desired. A mixture of creeds is highly essential in a native army to pre vent disturbances: " Another reason (and in my opinion a very seri ous one) why the army became mutinous and dis affected is this. Promotion all went by seniority, and not, as it ought, according to merit and profi ciency. Allt he old men, from length of service worth nothing as commissioned or nou-etmurssioned offi cers, received promotion, while younger men, in every way fit, languished in their lines, What use is there in us exerting ourselves ; we cannot get promotion till our turn comes, and that time can't come until our heads are gray and our mouths toothless.' For thisreason the sepoys forthe most part drew their pay, and were careless with regard to their duty. The higher ranks of the native army, from old age alone, were quite incapacit eted from doing their duty oven had they the will to do it. I state confidently that the generality of native officers were an encumbrance t ) the State; iI: stead of commanding sepoys the se t oys commanded them, and instead of the commissioned and non-commis sioned ranks preventing the men from mutinying, they rather persuaded them to do so. " I will now endeavour to explain why the feelings and intentions of the sepoys did nut be come known to their European officers. Iu former times the officers used to keep native women, and constantly had the native offi.ers and Sepoys in their society, and did more to please them. The women exercised a good deal of influ ' once in the regiment. This was all in accordance with the feelings of the Sepoys. By acting in this way the officers did good service to the Govern ment, because they becime better acquainted with the enarac.er of th?ir m-n, and with what was go ing on in the lines. In litter tunes this has not bet n the case. It appears me, the officers who have been appointed to the service within the las:. 20 years are better educated than the offic ,, rs of former times were. I think more hooks have been pub lisped la'ely. Now the officers marry English ladies, and there is less in common between the officeis and Sepoys ; of late years the Sepoys have not confided in their officers. The consequence of all this has been, that when the mutiny broke out the officers were misinformed as to its extent. I have ever been in the habit of keeping my com mending officer informed of all that occurs. If all native officers did likewise the army could not mutiny. " I teg to state that in my opinion the natives of Hindost in are only fitted for militia of police, for this simple reas, n—that they aro averse to serve in any other country than their own, for the Government must be well aware that no regiment has ever gone on board ship without showing more or less discontent. "In my opinion the Santhals would make ex cellent material for soldiers. I have seen men like the Santhals, who are of opinion that everything the Almighty has been pleased to make must be good, and consequently eat anything : they have no prejudices of caste or religion to fight against ; for this reason I conclude they would do anything and go anywhere the Government desires. It is true these men ate savages, but they c,:ruld be taught, even as other men are, for it is a well known fact that 'civilisation' begets civilisation.' "I consider that I ought to know the fe,lings of the late native army. In 1763 my grandfather was in the service of the British, and in due curse became and died a subadar. My father was born in the army, and accompanied it every where until he became a man. He entered the ser vice,in 1801, and died a subadar in 1853. I was accustomed to hear of former times from his own lips, , From the time of my birth I accompanied my fa - her wherever his regiment went, and in his regi ment I was enlisted. Both my grandfather and father, as well as myself, were in the same corps. I rose to be havildar major of my regiment, and then, through the interest of Captein Rattray, had the good fortune to get transferred to the Bengal Police Battalion, where I have risen to the rank of suba dar and sirdar bahadoJr. For the above reasons all the doings of the army and the eastoms thereof are well known ti me. My home has ever been with my regiment, and I have never known any other, and I look on the Sirkar Company as my guardian. " Should the right hon. the Governo r-Gene. ciTr l . wish to ask me any questions I should consider,, myself only as too much honoured, and if be of any service to the Court of Director,/d to be to n obgef' 4 ore any moment of difficulty I should only be . sent to London and explain my Itban I have one, for I could say a great deal inor here written. w hatever orders hive "I am well aware that been issued by the Government Nava . been done with the view to the benue,_fi,t, o f the sirdars and people of Hindu ohnt 'late that they will uu people of this country; .bst,i''.o htau are so blgoted and Lut w r . 1 1 their fathers did before derstand nothing them ; and it unt.t.eve q a na Dare t wo tongues -4., e recollected that the na tives are are, ne for their cflieers aud one for the lines . , Bo thlt when th ,, y to their i,fficeri to learn anything, or to be went of anYthing new, toldway of flattery they sail, "ood! by but in their hearty fi earts 374 , u English. are very clever,' & :e . i n tended in were really afraid that it must 1 e s , rne way to affect their religion, and on their retmu to their lines would talk it over with their comrades and say, ‘.Althovgli I knew it -~. ASSIZE IN PELL !GENOA ROME CIRCUIT.—KINGSTON, APRIL 1. (Before Mr. Justice Erie and a Special Jury.) WITHERS P.

The accident that was the sub. • • ject of inquiry occurred on Aug. 13, 1857, when it appeared, there was a tertific thunder-storrn, ac. companied by torrents of rain. The plaintiff was a t.aveller by the mail down train, and upon its arrival at Newark there was a tremendous flood, - the consequence of which was that the embankment of the railway was to a certain extent washed away, the train fell in, .and the plaintiff received very serious injuries —indeed so serious, that it was • doubtful whether he would not suffer from them to the end of his existence. It was contended-on be. , halfiof the company that there was nOliegkijoict on theit part-to render them liable for theiptieiineli:so., f , Of the -accident, and thiit 'it wag purely oiringt6 the sudden fLod, over which they had no control. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff damages 1,560/. some points of law bang reserved for further consideration. It has been arranged that the business of the assizes shall be adjourned until Monday next at 1Q o'clock. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—LIVERPOOL, APRIL 1. SECOND CIVIL COURT--(BdOre Mr. Baron Martin..) ANFIELD V. BEAUMONT.—ACTION FOR ASSAULT AND YALSE IMPRISONMENT. This was an action brought by a young female, under 20 years of age, lately employed as a stew ardess on board the eamer, Tiger, trading be , tweet' Hull and Hamburg, against the captain of the vessel. In April last year the Tiger was lying at Hamburg, when the plaintiff, accompanied by two of the engineers, went out one night to some places of amu-ement, and did not return on board tintd after midnight. Tue captain was in bed, and he bad locked t he cabin door in such a way that the plaintiff could not open it, al.hough she had a key. She contrived, however, to get to her berth through the window of the smoking-room. Next morning, according to the plaintiff's case, the cap tain abused her for staying out No late, threatened to discharge her, and soon after Arai ds came to her and insisted upon her leaving the ship at once. She declined doingso, believing that herreputation would be injured, but the captain still insisted, and ulti mately called the police. The girl refused to go, and the Rdice tied her hands and removed her. Her hands were bound so tightly that the blood started, and they were much injured. The captain told her he should place her on bo rrd another vessel, the Harmonta, but she declined to be sent home thus, and begged to be allowed to remain and return on board ma Tiger. She was removed, however, by the police, and being still ob -ttnate in her refusal to be transferred to the Harmonia, was taken first to the copses office, and then to gaol. During her detention by the police she struggled a good deal, and was repeatedly struck by the officers. It was for these assaulti and alleged false imprison ment that compensation was sought by the present a tion. For the defence it was urged that the plain tiff was insub •rdiJate, negligent of duty, and im pertinent to the c)ptain ; that the assaults com pTa,iped of she had brought upon herself by her owia viuleece ; and that, after tolerating Ler misconduct a 3 long as he could, the defendant had done all in his power to prccure• her another ship, and had actually paid her wages up to the time of her dis missal, and also her passage home. In cross-exe mitlatien the captain admit ed that he had indulged in a criminal intimacy with the plaintiff, though his wife was on board at the time. A document was put in, being a copy of certain proceedings and exam.inaiion3 taken and made before the Hamburg authorities, which tended considerably in the cap tain's favour, and showed that the plaintiff had ac ed in a most violent and outrageous manner, while, on the other hand, the captain had done all he could to induce her to leave the ship quietly and go on hoard another vessel. After addresses from learnel counsel and the summing up of the judge, the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 501. BRISTOL COUNTY COURT -THE PLI G ACT. At the Bristol County Court, on Tuesday, in an action, Tovy v. Hill, the learned judge, Sir J. Eardiey Wilmot, Bart.., gave an interpretation of the 24th George 2, cap. 40, better known as the " Tippling Act," which was far more liberal and just towards the licensed victuallers' trade than the judgments under that statute have usually been. l he action was brought by the plaintiff, a highly re spectable wine and spirit merchant, to recover the sum of 3/. 3e 6d, for wines and spirits. Tie bill was made up , f the following particulars :—Oct. 9, 1856, 1 gallon Oi'l Men gin, 11 , . ; 2 quarts Irish malt whisky, et 16'. l eer gal , Bs. ; 2 qiee tee, old Coenac brandy, at 284. per sal., 14, ; March 14, 1857, 1 gal. 0 d Tom Fen, lig. ; 1 quart oil'. Cognac brandy, at 3?..e per gal., 7q. 6d. ; 1 guar., Irish malt whi,k), at id,. per gal., 41. ; 1 quart .upe: ior oil For*, at 16.. per gil., 4.. ; 1 quart prime pale sherry, at 16 , . per gal., 4s. Mr. Dens, who appeared for the defendant, submitted that by the provisions of the 24th Geo. 2, cap. 40, the plaintiff eras debarred from bringing or maintaining • is action ; and so conc!usive was the prohibi ion of that i.t.tute field to be that the late Judge of the o..,rrt, Mr, Palmer, bad sleeps considered himself btun I, even when the act was not pleaded, to act .upon it, and to deprive the plaintiff of his . ver !*. The act provided that, "From. and after the Ist day of July, 1751, no person or persons whatsoever shall be et titled unto or maintain any cause, action, or suit fur, or recover, either in law or equity, any esim or sums of money, debt, or demand whatsoever, fur or on account of any spirituous liquors, unless such debt shall have really been and bona fide con tracted at one time to the amount of 20s. or up• warts." In the caie in question the items were under 20e, although by adding two or three together, as supplied at the same date, an aggregate of over 20s. might be made up. Thera was, however, a second section of the clause which di:tinctly met the case, and which was, "Nor shall any particular article cr item in any account or demand fur distilled spirituous liquors, be allowed or maintained where the liquors delivered at one time, and mentioned in such article or item, shall not amount to the lull value of 20s. at the least, reed that without fraud or covin." Such was the substance of Mr. Dane ' s argument, in support of which he men. tinned the decision of the former judge, .Mr. Palmer. . , His Honour, having taken time to coreiier his judg ment, said, o 3 Lie return into court, that he thought the statute capable of a construction more liberal and more for the benefit of the . public _ V I :: that which Mr. Dena had put upon. it. 5 argued that, in order to carry out the • to re cover of the act, a plaintiff must be deprived of his right dat one where the separate parcels of spirits:opiene , pre r visions in value. He f r aveur of trade, time did not each individually exceed t q2-inOterpret the act, li . te w ra i t i b il w' rim it was passed, thought that that was not the way t w h o at rd which should be construed . and with a view to the o , jec . ! g. The second part of viz., the prevention of t ppi a, where the section of t , h , ' the liquors deliver ed timeand • e a:or : an d e l coajia considered ne dthe d at ogle , mentioned in the " word z shall not amount to the full ' such article or item, . ' value of 20s. t be read in con nectionwiththe • liquors" nos being read, it word 0 item„ and that, so read, it showed that the contemplated the delivery Legielatur7 liquor at one time of Mo r e th an e Para° of as embraced within the scope of the term "article. or item." That such must have been the intention of the statute was c onfirmed by what had been suggested to him by one of the registrars, Mr. Gibbs, viz., that if it were otherwise, a person might go to a spirit merchant and purchase 19s lld worth of bra dy, 19.. 11d. worth of gin, 194 lid worth of Sun), 10, lld worth of whisky, and eii On, and ti en, because neither of the articles came to 20W., might hold the vendor at arm's length and defy him. Such be considered could never have been the intention of the Legislature, and such was not, according to the liberal construction which he was disposed to put upon it, the meaning of the act of Parliament. The judgment would, therefore, be for the plaintiff. The Easter ceremonies fur the Jews commenced on Tuesday, anil will continue until the 6th April. Accord.
