P i r , ( iIORLEY'S Frjo,l) FOR. CATTLE...-. ` A L It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious *article of animal diet firs A made its appearance; and already its celebrity is world-w' e 1 It has been a subject of wonder, 'and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, ' our wonder will cease. A few days since, a gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a " Perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get the animal into ramdition, but in vain. He then bought some of Thorley's fo‘xl; and he says the effect was wsnderful. The horse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had rained no le Js than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri cultural shows at Birmingham Cardiff, Sm., the animals which carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed mith Thor ney's food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand fo•• it can proceed alone from the good pinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle will do well to apply to 77,1Newgate-street, London, for a pamphlet which is sent post-free. !FIFTY :THOUSAND CURES Have been effected wit'nout Medicine, inconvenience or expense, of indigestion (cl YsTiensia),Constipation,Flatulency . • l‘Tervonsness, Bil euralgia, SleeKte,." ness ' InintivitielesP ..rritability, Liver Complaints, Hysteria, Eruptions, ITiernorrhB.

It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when, wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting - of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply cure.

Capt. H. L. Cape, 94th Regt., officiated as Deputy Judge-Advocate, and Capt. L. Sidebottom, adjutant of the Ist battalion, conducted the proseCution. The prisoner, on - being brought into the room, appeared very pale, but this, perhaps, arose from the lengthened period he has been in confinement, awaiting his trial, which has arisen in consequence of the difficulty experienced in procuring the ne , cessary evidence to support the charge against him. He appears to be about 26 years of age. The DeputyJudge-Advocate read over the charge to the prisoner fbllows in th e month of January, 1855, when iii the service of her Majesty and with the army in the field in the Crimea, deserted and gone over to the enemy." The prisoneroan being called upon, pleaded Not Guilty. All the witnesses were then ordered out of court, and the following evidence Was afterwards taken : Sergeant dames Osmotherly, 7th Royal Fusiliers, said he belonged to the same company as the pri soner and was in the same tent with him during the time the 7th Fusiliers were in the Crimea. In the month of January, 1855, the prisoner was one day warned for fatigue duty by Sergeant Ball, and was ordered, with another man, to go out and search for fuel. Prisoner was away between two and three hours when he was reported absent. The colonel ordered.witness, Sergeant Ball, and another Man to go out and see if they could find him. They first went over to Inkerman . ' and then passed round 'to the White-house ra v i ne , w here the British picket was stationed. They inquired of the picket if they had. seen any man go down after fuel, when they received answer that they-had, but that they did nOL know whether he. came back again. Witness 'never saw prisoner again until be saw him a pri soner at Chatham. By the proSecutorr—The men at that time were allowed to go for fuel in advance of the White house picket. Witness should say the White-house picket was about 104 yards from the Russian picket, but le was not confident as to the distance, as ad vanced pickets were thrown out at night. The prisoner declined asking this - witness any questions. Private George ; Hines, ith Fusiliers, said he knew the prisoner, who was in the same regiment with him in the Crimea in January, 1855, Could not say whether he was sent on duty when h. was discovered absent, but it was reported in the regi ment that prisoner was sent to gather fuel. Wit ness never saw prisoner from the time he left until he was brought in a prisoner at Chatham. Sergeant Michael Mahoney, 3d class instructor of musketry, was the next witness examined. He stated that he belonged to the 55th Regt. when in the. Crimea, and was taken prisoner in Dec. 1854, and marched to Veron e t z , w ith th e other English prisoners of war. In the month of May, in the following year, the prisoner Thos. Tole arrived at Veronetz, and was put in the same room with wit ness. About the latter end of June all the English prisoners Were marched down to the 'police-office at Veronetz, where a letter was read to them asking them if they would like to return to England. Ile could not say whether the prisoner was present on the occasion of - that - letter being - read. Alturrite - F of questions was put to them, and the prisoners were asked what regiments they belonged to, how they were taken prisoners, and what wounds they had received. Their answers were all taken down. Tole, after that, was always considered by the other soldiers as a deserter, and it was generally stated he had admitted being a deserter when at the police-office. Witness was not present when Tole was examined at the police-office. By the Prosecutor—There was no classification made of the prisoners. About six weeks after wards they were again marched to another police station, and the same questions put to them ; it was then again reported among the prisoners that Tole was a deserter. All the English prisoners were pre sent at the police-office excepting Sergeants Con nelly and Edwards and the sick in hospital. A letter was read to the prisoners to the effect that if those men who had deserted wished to remain behind they could do so, and that they would be sent to America after the war. By the Court—On the morning the prisoners left Veronetz the prisoner and a man named Kelly, of the 88th, who also had deserted to the Russians, followed them through the town, and witness heard Kelly say he wished he was going with them. There was another exchange of prisoners afterwards, and a man named Shea, of the 88th, returned to his re giment. Some prisoners who were sick were left be hind. Ou their march they left four or five men at a place called Crimenchuck. The prisoner Tole did not march with them. All who were left behind were considered deserters, with the exception of Shea. From the time the English prisoners were examined at the police office Tole was always con sidered a deserter. About 52 prisoners were left be hind at Veronetz, and they were all considered deserters. Witness could not say if they were con sidered deserters by the authorities. There was a difference in the manner of treating the prisoners and the deserters ; at Sebastopol the deserters were allowed grog, but the prisoners not. As deserters arrived at Veronetz they were put in a kind of barn outside the house where the prisoners were. Tole and some other deserters - were, however, kept in the house. Witness could not say whether Tole was allowed grog at Sebastopol, as he was not there at the time. By the Prisoner—There was only one man, not a deserter, who was. left at Veronetz when witness left. He could not remember prisoner and two other men named Duke and Connor, going into hospital the night before witness and the other prisoner left. He never shook hands with the prisoner, neither did he tell him in hospital that he was sorry he I. could not walk with the other prisoners. By the Court—They considered. men to be de serters from the statements made by the other pri soners belonging to the same regiment, and also from their own depositions taken down at the police office. Tole could have beets exchanged with the other prisoners had he wished. He had the same, treatment as witness and the other prisoners. Corporal R. Clark, 23d Royal Welsh Fusiliers, said, he was taken prisoner by the Russians at the battle of Inkerman, and marched to Veronetz. Wit ness saw the prisoner now before the Court there. On the prisoner being examined at the police office Tole was taken down as a deserter by the police master. Every prisoner's paper was sent up from Sebastopol, and each man was returned either as a deserter or a prisoner of war. The prisoner wa s consideredby the police-master as a desert er. Wh ile at Veronetz a letter was read to the prisoners, to the effect that the Emperor would intercede with her Majesty to let all the men who had deserted during the war return to England without punish ment. The deserters were recommended to remain in Russia until the war was over, but the option was given them of returning to England. All the prisoners who wished to be exchanged went to Odessa; but Tole did not go . . He was not pre vented going by wounds or sickness. By the Prisoner=-A man named Connor was not sick in hospital when the prisoners left for Odessa, but was taken sick on the road. Joseph Hurst, a police-constable of the Manches ter police force, said he apprehended the prisoner in a beerhouse in that city on the 18th of Septem ber, on suspicion of being a deserter from the 7th Fusiliers. He had known'the prisoner 15 years. Witness had arrested him twice before on suspicion of being a deserter, but on each occasion the proof Captain Sidebottom, the prosecutor, intimated that he did not intend calling any more witnesses for the prosecution. The President (to the prisoner)—Have you any statement you wish to address to the Court ? Prisoner said he had, and proceeded to address the Court as follows :—On the 17th of January. 1855, my company was warned for night duty, and on the 18th the picket came and relieved us, and we were marched to our tent. I had not time to file my firelock when another man and myself were and get ordered on wood fatigue. We went to try _ _ TOWER-SALE OF STORES. BY Order of the SECRETARY OF STATE for WAR.

The above society commenced their annual series of concerts last night with Haydn's oratorio, " The Creation," the principal vocalists being Madame Rudersdorff, Madame Weiss, Mr. Weiss ' and Mr. G. perren—the latter of whom appeared at a short notice in lieu of Mr. Sims Reeves, who had been announced, but was prevented by a severe attack of the prevailing epidemic from fulfilling his en • gagement. Of course the disappointment was very great, but the audience, many of whom, to judge by their loud and, frequent coughing, were in much the same state as the printed medical certificate circu lated throughout the hall attested the great tenor himself to be in, could not under such circumstances remonstrate with any show of reason, more espe cially as Mr. Reeves 's substitute acquitted himself very creditably of his onerous, and particularly un grateful, task. c principal soprano part, divided between Madame Rudersdorff and Madame Weiss, was done ample justice to in almost every instance ; whilst Mr. Weiss, as principal bass, sang with even more than his usual power and expression. The band and chorus, under the able direction of Mr. Costa (who was unanimously cheered on en tering the orchestra) were all that could be wished ; and it may therefore be said that the Sacred Harmonic Society inaugurated the new season in a manner quite worthy o their name and fame. The hall was crowded in every part. THE DEANERY OF ELY.—CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 28. —This preferment has been conferred upon the Rev.
