The Directors give notice that, in consequence of the great and undiminished demandfor Steam Vessels upon the Indian rivers, and the wide fi eld presenting itsel f for their profitable employment, they have resolved to double the capital of the Company. The Directors have the satisfaction of announcing that the steamers and barges, consisting of twelve vessels in all, which they forwarded from this country in August last, have now arrived safely in India, and will commence plying upon the rivers without delay. An equal number of vessels of still greater power is at present in preparation, and will be sent out as soon as possible. Before embarking in the present undertaking the Directors had not only satisfied themselves of its eminently profitable nature, bUt they had secured for it the marked co-operation of the Indian Government, by the acquisition of a subsidy; and the Government, both by the gift of land for stations, workshops, and depot., of wood for fuel, and in every other way, has rendered everpossible aid to the present under taking. At the same t ime the Directors have insured com plete exemption from Government control and interference ; and this is the only Company so distinguished which pos sesses any Government support. The Directors have the satisfaction of finding that not only the Reports of the Company's servants in India, but the whole concurrent testimony of the advices received front that country, through whatever channel. completely confirms the favourable anticipations they long since formed of the profit able character of the present undertaking. It would be im possible, however, within the limits of an advertisement, to recapitulate the numerous evidences of this truth which the Directors are constantly receiving ; and they content them selves, therefore, with giving the following quotation from a recent leading article in the "Times," which shows that simi lar information had been reaching that paper through its Indian correspondents. From the Times,' Jan. 29,1859. "It is not only Government but the whole nation that seems remiss. Any day during the last year we might hive filled our columns with the complaints of shipbuilders at the de- Cline of their trade, owing in a great measure to the happy termination of the Russian War. But what do we now hear from India ? They wonder there what our shipbuilders are about. Month after month they are expecting the steamers that are to come. The Indian General Steam Navigation Company declare this month,' says our correspondent, a dividend (1) f 100 and upwards per cent. The Home Government had been requested to send out six river steamers, and it had sent out only one, which, it said, would be enough.' Next month,' eontinues our informant, 'the Indian Government had to en gage all the freight of six for two trips at a price which would have bought the new vessels wanted twice over. There is ?nom and work, we are told, for 300 steamers on the Ganges alone, fl owing, as it does, through a territory wit h a popula tion of 350 to the square mile, with an export trade of £16,000,0000, and an internal trade beyond human calculation. Yet, with this vast opening before us, there are found men in the prime of life, neither schoolboys nor dotards, who can Waste their time in holding meetings and memorialising Go vernment to find them customers for their shipping. Many a time ere this has war ministered to peace, infusing a quicker element into its idle, dreamy soul. To this Mutiny, perhaps, We owe the real opening of the Indian navigation to British enterprise, and the railways which are certain to follow. But verbum sat ; we have said enough to start our shipbuilders and shipowners, if they are Englishmen." The Directors have all along felt that neither the vessels Which they have already sent to India, nor those which they have at present in preparation, could do much to satisfy the great want of Inland Steam Navigation which exists in that country. But they have also all along felt that the only safe Way of entering upon such an undertaking was not to rush Into it with sanguine precipitation, but to advance with gra dual and cautious steps, and without being dazzled by the large prospect of profits it holds out. The first steps, how ever, having been successfully taken, the whole of the exist ing Shares in the Company having been allotted, and being at a premium in the market, and the field being so large as to require a large capital to work it in an efficient manner, the Directors are of opinion that the time is come when the capi tal of the Company may be advantageously increased, and they have, therefore, resolved to raise the capital to half a Wilton sterling without delay. Applications for the new Shares must be forwarded to the Directors, at the offices of the Company, 9, Billiter-street, London, on or before the 28th day of February next. A deposit of two shillings per Share to be made on appli cation, and the Bankers' receipt for that amount to be for warded with the application for Shares. The New Shareholders will stand on precisely the same terms as the Original Shareholders, and will participate in the dividend as soon as it is payable. Calls will not be more frequent than once every three months nor for more than £2 per share, at any time. Five per cent. will be paid upon a ll ca ll s until thegvi e deucis de clared, and upon all payments in advance of calls. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES. To the Directors of the O riental Inland Steam Company (mied). Gentlemen, —I request that you will allot to me of the new issue of Shares in this Company ; and I hereby under take to accept the same or any less number that may be allotted to me, to pay the calls thereon when due, and to sign the Articles of Association when required. I a m, gentlemen, your obedient servant, ORIENT AL INLAND STEAM COMPANY (Limited). Under subsidy from the Indian Govern ment. The Directors give Notice that no further Applica tions for the New Shares of this Company can be received after the 28th instant. JBy_grder. • OHN MATTHEWSON, Secretary. ON MEDICAL GALVANISM IN THE TREATMENT OF NERVOUS DEBILITY, ORGANIC WEAKNESS, &c. Just published, price ls., post free, 13 stamps, .qELF-PRESERVATION : A Medical Treatise on NERVOUS DEBILITY and FUNCTIONAL WEAKNESS, more particularly in reference to the INFIR MITIES and DISORDERS ofthe GENERATIVE SYSTEM; tracing the Origin of these distressing afflictions to causes which vitiate the very fountains of Life and prematurely de stroy the vigour of Manhood. With Practical Observations on the Cure of these Diseases, and on the extraordinary re storative power of LOCAL GALVANISM in Spermatorrhcea, Impotence, and Sterility, in which cases it is applied without pain or danger, and is frequently successful without the aid of medicine. BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Registered Licentiate of the London Society of Apothecaries, Doctor of Medicine of the University of Erlangen, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society. &c. 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 ofgreat 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 iniudicious 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.

Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which commends itself to the medical man as being. accordant with the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a condition little short of total prostration, then by the action of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta blished to a deoTee almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE Published by Mann, 39, Cornhill, and of all Booksellers.

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 purses. The difference between true Spermatorrluta 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. • London : H.

Yesterday there was a brigade field-day of the • whole of the troops now quartered at Chatham garri son. The three battalions of infantry, comprising the depot companies of 18 of the India regiments, with , the battalion of Royal Marine Light Infantry and the Royal Engineers, assembled on their respective parade-grounds at 2 o'clock, and were marched to the lines, headed by their. bands. On Major-General Eyre, the commandant of the garrison, attended by his staff, arriving on the ground, he was received with a general salute ; after which the troops, who numbered nearly 5,000 men of all ranks, marched past in slow and quick time, and were put through a variety of brigade.: movements by General Eyre, the various manoeuvres being executed with great precision and steadiness. After the officers and troops had been exercised in military movements for about two hours they were marched back to their respective quarters. The 2d battalion of the 4th Foot (King's Own), stationed at Chichester, were presented with colours on Tuesday by Major-General Sir J. Y. Scarlett, K.C.B, commanding the South-Western District. At the conclusion of the ceremony the Major-General addressed Col. Whittingham, C.B. and the officers of the regiment, and congratulated them on the general appearance of the regiment. and the high state of discipline it had attained since its formation. . _ The 2d battalion of the 19th Regiment, stationed at Winchester, are under orders for Shorncliffe. Orders have been received by Col. I. T. Leslie, C. 8., commandant of the East India depot at Warley, directing 350 non-commissioned officers and men of the East India troops to embark at Gravesend to-morrow on board the Undaunted, 1,100 tons, for Calcutta. The 58th Regiment was entertained at a public dinner at Auckland, New Zealand, on the 14th of Nov., and embarked for England, in the ship Mary, on the 20th of that month. The ship was at Rio Janeiro, taking in fresh supplies, on the 4th of Jan., and is hourly expected to arrive at Cork. The 58th served more than 14 years in New Zealand, and in the years 1845, 1846, and 1847 saw mu - eh hard work in the native wars. The number of men re turning is about 200 of all ranks, all who could having obtained their discharge, to avail them selves of the free grants of land awarded by the Auckland Waste Lands Act, 1858. IMPROVED ELECTRICAL CABLE. On Tuesday evening the Rev. Walter Mitchell, M.A., delivered a lecture " On the Atlantic Tele• graph, and Electric Telegraphs in general," at the Russell Institution. The most novel feature of the lecture, and one which elicited great interest, was the description of some very interesting experiments by Professor Hughes, the inventor of the printing telegraph recently described in our columns. These experiments have not only exemplified the defects of the present Atlantic cable, and the cause of the interruption of electric communication, but also afforded a demonstration of an easy method of pre venting such accidents for the future. A copper wire insulated in the ordinary manner was placed in a bath of salt and water. An electrical circuit was made, interrupted only by the water. The com plete insulation of the copper wire was indicated by the needle of one of Mr. Henley's most delicate galvanometers connected with the interrupted current standing at zero. A hole of considerable size was then made through the gutta percha, allowing the salt water to reach the wire. The electrical circuit was then immediately completed by the water, the deflection of the needle, and its permanent position at 90 deg., markinc , what is technically called " dead earth," or, in other words, the complete escape of the electric force through the opening into the surrounding water. A more minute hole was then made, when the following curious phenomena presented themselves. The needle of the galvanometer was deflected about 70 deg. ; but instead of remaining stationary at that point, kept vibrating irregularly through arcs of two or three degrees on each side of 70 deg. The per plexing vibrations of the galvanometers applied to the electric cable were thus exemplified. It becomes therefore exceedingly probable that the vibrations supposed to be produced by earth currents are nothing more than an indication of the minute nature of the flaw in the gutta percha, which has destroyed the conducting power of the present cable. To remedy such defects for the future, Mr. Hughes has devised a form of cable as simple as it seems to be effectual in performing its work. Gutta percha is more or less porous. Minute flaws may exist which may not show themselves until some time after the immersion of a cable. This was ex emplified by Mr. Henley, who discovered a flaw in his Tasmanian cable, which did not show itself until it had been three or four days under water. To meet these defects, to fill up any minute pores in the gutta percha, and also to cure any accidental frac ture or puncture of it, Professor Hughes introduces a vis?id semi-fluid substance of a non -conducting character between the conducting wire and the gutta percha. The gutta percha covering .of the wire is drawn 'out into a tube a little larger in bore than the wire, the space between them being filled with the viscid fluid. As soon as any . puncture is made through the gutta percha covering the fluid oozes out, and is of that nature that it hardens as soon as it comes in contact with the surrounding water. A puncture was made in a piece of this prepared cable while in the bath. The needle of the galvanometer instantly registered dead earth, showing the injury received by the cable. But immediately the fluid began to ooze out and repair the injury. In about half a minute the return of the needle to zero indicated the complete restora tion of the covering of the cable. Not only was this demonstrated by punctures, but long slits, two or three inches in length, were speedily filled up. This imitation of the pro cess by w hi c h na t ure repairs injuries done to trees by the flow of the sap and its coagulation opens out a good pros pect of overcoming the defects which have lately manifested themselves in several deep sea telegraph cables. It was stated that there were no mechanical difficulties in the way of the manufacture of such a cable, and that it would not be more expensive than those now made. The lecture was also illustrated by some of Mr. Henley's very perfect and delicate relay instru- . ments, which excited deserved admiration.—Daily News.

BASTARDY IN SCOTLAND.—NearIy every tenth Scotsman is a bastard. The registration returns for the year 1858 show that over Scotland in that year the illegiti mate births numbered 9,256 against 94,939 legi t i ma t e , the former being as nearly as possible one to ten of the latter. This is a state of things nowise flattering to our self esteem, and Scotchmen, instead of glorifying their heroes, whether of the sword or of the pen, had better be inquiring whether the race of heroes is not extinct, i.e. if heroism is to have aught to do with virtue.—Banishire'lournal.
