(IN TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRIICE4; V with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De bility of the Generative system, or Sexualliypochroldriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD, " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This Is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."--London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the carious forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for thetreatmeut 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 : IL Baillicre, 219, Regent-street.

The fearful dangers to invalids from spurious imitations of DU BARRY'S invaluable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA LENTA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and, upon application in 1854 for protection, the High Court of Chancery granted an injunction restraining Alfred Hooper Nevill, and his agents, under a penalty of £5,000, from selling any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of which we are the sole pro prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infor mation of any breach of the injunction. An intelligent public requires no admonition to shun all shopkeepers who may attempt Impositions. London : BARRY DU BARRY & CO, NO MORE SICKLY OIL TT,L-CO.NDITTONED HORSES OR OTHER CATTLE.

HE .NA The steamship Britannia, having embarked shot and shell from Woolwich Arsenal yesterday, pro ceeded to Deptford to fill in with victualling stores for Gibraltar. The hired transport Champion has shipped a heavy cargo of shot, shell, and gun-carriages at Woolwich Arsenal, and is ready for sea. The War Department have engaged the following vessels to embark war stores from Woolwich—namely, the Parma, the Rapid, the Mary Shepherd, the Pros pero, and the cordelia. Letters received from the squadron in China state that the crews of the various ships are suffering severely from ophthalmia. The Chesapeake is said to have 200 on her sick list from this cause alone, and one of the vessels is named as having the whole of her crew without exception suffering from the same cause. Admiral Hope is stated to be recover ing his health, but unable to move aeross his cabin, and has to be carried whenever necessary to do so. A court-martial was held yesterday on board her Majesty's ship Victory, in Portsmouth harbour, to try a marine belonging to her Majesty's ship Mars, at Spithead, on charges of robbing a prisoner, and threatening to stab him. The court found the first charge not proved, and the second partly proved, and sentenced him to three months' im prisonment in Winchester gaol, The Ruby gunboat has been lying in Lynn har bour during the last few days with a view to the enrolment of volunteers for the navy. Mr. Henry Eales was yesterday appointed sur geon to the Prometheus, and Mr. George P. Cooke was appointed surgeon to the Ardent. The following is a copy of the letter received from the Right Hon. J. Wilson, President of the Indian Council; in acknowledgment of the testimonial pre sented to him a few days since by the workmen employed in Chatham Dockyard as a mark of their gratitude for his successful efforts in procuring the provisions of the CiVil Service Superannuation Bill to be extended to the persons employed in her Ma jesty's dockyards :--- " Sir,—l hope you will allow me to express through you to your fellow-workmen in Chatham Dockyard the great gratification it has afforded me to receive such an expression of their respect on leaving this country for India. " I trust that the same spirit of perfect fairness and equality, with regard to all branches of the public service, will always continue to animate the House of Commons as did so in the provisions of the bill-of last session.—Bilieve me, sir, yours very faithfully, " Mr. J. Gwynn." " JAMES WILSON. THE ARMY. Capt. G. H. Gordon, Royal Engineers, who met with an accident on the parade-ground at Brompton Barracks on Saturday, by being thrown from his horse, is now able to resume his military duties, the accident not being so severe as was at first believed to be the case. The usual field and parade drills carried on during the summer at Woolwich having been ordered to be r suspended for the season, the whole of the troops in garrison were yesterday " marched out," in pur suance of orders, for the commencement of the winter marching exercises. The brigades of the Royal Artillery ; accompanied by the two companies of the 9th Regiment of the Line, together with the divisional battalion of the Royal Marines, headed by their regimental bands, marched out to Black heath, at 9 a.m., and returned to quarters at half past 12. The Brigade of Royal Horse Artillery took a similar route. The Headquarters Staff 12th _Brigade Royal Artillery have received orders to hold themselves in readiness to embark .for the Mauritius, leaving Woolwich about the Ist of January next. The brigade has two batteries in China, one in Sydney, one in Ceylon, one in the Cape of Good Hope, one at St. Helena, and one with the headquarters, Mauritius. The head-quarters of the Fife Artillery at Pen dennis Castle, under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Wynne, were inspected on Thursday last by Major- General Hutchinson, commanding the Western dis trict. The General was received with a general salute, after which the regiment marched past in slow and quick time. The General then minutely inspected the ranks and the regimental necessaries. The men were then marched to a battery of 32- pounders, and went through the heavy gun exer cise. The men's rooms, hospital, school, and read ing-room, as also the regimental books, underwenta close inspection. The Major-General expressed himself much pleased with the soldierlike appear ance of the men, their excellent kits, the cleanli ness and good order of the barracks, hospital, &c., as also with the accuracy and regularity with which the books were kept.

At the Chichester quarter sessions on Friday Mr. James Collins, a master tailor, residing in the City-road, surrendered to take his trial upon an in dictment which charged him with stealing from the person of Anne Pheldrake, a purse, containing some florins, a halfcrown, a piece of paper, and a gold ring, her property. Mr. Creasy conducted the prosecution on behalf of the London and Brighton Railway Company. The prisoner was defended by Mr. M'Donnell of the Home Circuit, who was specially retained, and Mr. Kemp. It appeared that on Monday, the lit of August, the prisoner End some of his family left London for Lancing, and got out at that station about noon of the same day. The prosecutrix was travelling by the same carriage, and she got out at the Shoreham station, wnere she discovered that she had lost her purse and its contents. The prisoner and his family went to the lodging he had taken for his family at Lancing, and on the same evening he returned to London. In the meantime information had been given to the railway police of the supposed robbery, and in consequence of information that was received by Carpenter, an officer connected with the railway, he proceeded to the prisoner's place of business in London, and told him that he understood that he had picked. up ;purse in the railway car riage, and asked him. what had become of it. The prisoner did not deny that the purse had been in his possession, and he produced it, and it was then found to contain three halfpence, and he said that he had made use of the money it originally contained, but he was ready to replace it, and he then put several coins, amounting altogether to 9s. 7-1-d., into the purse. The officer said he understood the purse contained 12s. 40., two pieces of paper, and a gold ring, end he inquired what had become of these articles. The prisoner replied that he had not seen any ring, and he had destroyed the pieces of paper ; and he then stated that it always had been his in tention to return the purse. At the close of the case for the prosecution, Mr. M'Donnell argued that a charge of larceny could not be supported, as there was no evidence that the purse did not come honestly into the possession of the prisoner, and there was no evidence to show that he was aware to whom s it belonged, and his subsequent appropriation of it, therefore, did not amount to felony. The Chairman, Mr. C. J. Cobbett, declined to stop the case ; and Mr. M'Donnell then addressed the jury, and he contended that no felony had been established ; and that, although the prisoner might have acted im prudently and negligently, there was not the slightest ground for convicting him upon the pre sent charge. A number of highly respectable witnesses gave the prisoner an excellent character, and some of them stated that he had informed them that he had found a purse in the railway carriage, and expressed his intention to return it to the owner. The Chairman having summed up, the jury im mediately returned a verdict of Not Guilty. MISS MARTINEAU ON Fisn DIET.—The strangest thing' is that we do not make more use of fish than we do. In the Catholic days of this country everybody ate fish ; and there seems to have been enough for everybody. But within this century, when our fisheries were languid, and fishing was a precarious vocation, many tons of fine fish have been habitually buried in the sands whenever " the take" was larger than common. There was no demand for more than a small quantity. no, railways have since opened up the markets of the interior, so that in tne very heart of the island fine fresh herrings may be had in the season at a shilling a score ; yet the demand falls very far short of what might bo expected of a people whose labouring ebisscs rarely taste meat. It seems probable that the obstacle is the inability of the women t) cook. Fish is a luxury when m telligently- cooked, but it is easy to spoil it in the dressing. Fish which is overdone has lost its nutritive quality; but when one does meet with a woman who understands when to buy mackerel, herrings, whitings, and skate, mad how to treat them when bought, one sees that varied and excellent meals may be had at no greater cost than mere dry bread. Once SOUTH MIDDLESEX RIFLES. A meeting of this corps took place at Beaufort house, Walham-green, on Tuesday last, Viscount Ranelagh in the chair, when th e comm itt ee decided that tenders should be advertised for the butt, and the works commenced forthwith. The greatest cordiality exists among the m em b ers , an d the regi mental drills now take place a t 4 o ' c l oc k on Tues days, Thursdays, and Friday s . M r . J. W. Prout, of Neasdon, has forwarded the comm ittee a hand some donation of £2l, Lieut.-C o l. E ve lyn, Colonel Merrick, Mr. J. Wylde, Q.C., & c ., h a ve also sent donations in addition to those l as t a d ve rtised. A general meeting of the corps w ill t a k e place on Saturday next, when the uniform will be selected and forwarded to the Lord-Lieutenant for approval. The corps musters nearly 400 members, including many members of Parliament. ABERDEEN. At a meeting of the corps, which was held in the Court-house on the 19th, it was agreed that the fol lowing gentlemen should be recommended to the Lord-Lieutenant of the county for appointment as officers :—Mr. W. Jopp and Mr. A. Thompson as captains, Mr. G. Cadenhead and Mr. A.Edmond as ensigns, and Dr. Keith and Dr. Carr as medical officers. These gentlemen were elected by the members of the corps generally, and it is intended, in order to save any clubbing together or attempt at exclusiveness, to divide the corps into companies by ballot. The corps contains at present upwards of 120 gentlemen, who have furnished themselves with a very neat dark gray uniform and the short Enfield rifle and sword-bayonet. Drill has been carried on in the quadrangle of MarischaLCollege, under the superintendence of Sergeant-Major Phyn, of the Royal Aberdeenshire Highlanders, for the last two months, during which time the members have made marked progress. BRISTOL. The Bristol Rifles assembled on Saturday after noon, and, as on the previous public parade, were marched through the city to Durdham-down. The members of the corps are now rapidly completing their arming. Upwards of 250 beautifully made rifles, with sword bayonets, have been supplied to members who have purchased for themselves, 125 have been received from the Government stores, and a second consignment of the same number is daily expected. Bristol will then be prepared to furnish, at an hour's notice, 500 well-armed, and, as their field drys prove, well drilled and thoroughly efficient volunteer soldiers, a number which it is confidently expected will be Rearly if not quite doubled before the ensuing summer. It has been determined to provide the corps with ahandsomeshako,surmounted by a drooping black plume, for full d ress occasions, the present cap to be then considered as a sort of undress uniform. The 60 th Antrim Rifles, under the command of the Marquis of Donegal, are to leave Aldershott for Horfield-barracks, Bristol, at the latter end of this month or the beginning of November, and it is expected that the volunteers will then be In igaded with then'. GLASGOW. A volunteer artillery company is now being formed in the city of Glasgow. The provisional committee of the company have, through their se cretary, beenin communication with the Secretary of War as to the encouragement Goveenment was likely to extend to the formation of such a corn pany. The following letter from Earl Ripon was HAMILTON. At Hamilton on Friday night a meeting was held, at which it was agreed to form a rifle corps for the burgh of Hamilton and neighbourhood. Provost Nisbet was in the chair, and a large num ber of the most influential inhabitants of the dis trict were present. A committee was appointed to take steps for putting the corps in operation. LINCOLN. The volunteer movement has at last been taken up here with considerable spirit. Major Weston Cracroft, AncDtts, has received the appointment of captain of the corps formed for this city and neighbourhood, and at a meeting held at the Guild hall a few days ago, Mr. Arthur Trollope was re commended to the ice-Lieutenant of the county to be the lieutenant, and Mr. Joseph Shuttleworth (the mayor) was recommended to be the ensign of the corps. Mr. Councillor Clayton was appointed treasurer, and Mr. Councillor Hall, hon. secretary. The corps, which has been named the First Lin colnshire Volunteer Rifles, underwent a day's drill in the barracks of the Royal North Lincoln Militia, for the first time on Saturday last, when a large number of volunteers attended. The uniform adopted is that of the 60th Rifles with the short En field rifle. The West-common has been selected as a practising ground, upon which it is proposed to erect a wall of somewhat large dimensions at a consider- able cost, to meet which and other preliminary ex penses of the corps a subscription list has been open:. d, and about £loo already subscribed. The members at present will meet only one day a week for drill, on Saturdays, at two o'clock. OXFORD UNIVERSITY. In consequence of a notification from the War office that only long Enfield rifles can at present be supplied to volunteer corps, the original intention of arming all the companies with the short Enfield rifle has been unavoidably abandoned. As, how ever, many members of the corps have already ordered short Enfield rifles, it is proposed to arm the third company exclusively with them. All mem bers wishing to belong to that company, providing their own sword-bayonet and rifle, are requested to communicate with Lieutenant Warner, commanding the third company. The third company will not be allowed to exceed the average strength of the other two. The price of the short Enfield sword-bayonet and rifle will very little, if at all, exceed five guineas. Arrangements will be made to furnish long Enfield rifles and bayonets to those members who wish to purchase them at cost price. ROSS-SIIIRE. The Easter Ross Farmers' Club and the commu nity of Tain have bestirred themselves with such good success that a company of volunteer riflemen has been raised and sanctioned in this far-off corner of the north. The volunteers have all provided their own arms and uniform, either personally or by substitute, and have chosen Mr. M'Lcod, of Cadboll, captain ; Mr. Worms, of Allan, lieutenant;. and Bailie Murray, ensign. Already 80 men have undergone a fortnight's training, and the company is to re-assemble for chill at the end of this month. It is to be hoped that their spirited example will be generally followed in the county, as it has already been in Sutherlandshire, where, under the command of the Marquis of Stafford, a very excellent corps is in progress of formation. The Ross-shire regiment is 38th on the list, and the Easter Ross Company is No. 1. At Inverness the movement has also much progressed, a company being in course of formation, and drilling going on. REALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Report of the Registrar-General.) The weekly report issued by the Registrar-Gene ral, Oct. 21, 1859, states, that the London returns for the week that ended last Saturday exhibit a low rate of mortality as compared with the average rate obtained from the returns of corresponding weeks in previous years. The deaths in last week were 940, a number which is nearly the same as that of the previous week , but which is less (if allowance is made for increase of population) by about 200, than the average number of deaths that occurred in the third week of October in the ten years 1849-58. The mean temperature of the air last week was 10 degs. lower than that of the former half of the present month ; but the remarkable depression of temperature that was experienced last week occurred on Friday and Saturday, and was too late to affect much the present return of mortality. There were 29 deaths from small pox in the week, 6 of which were those of persons between the ages of 20 and 40 years, and three-fourths of the whole number occurred in the East and South districts. A young man, a member of the medical profession who is amongst those recorded as having died of the ' disease, is supposed to have caught the infection when attending cases in Newington. Eighty-five deaths from scarlatina and 14 from diphtheria are returned ; three of those from the latter disease occurred in the sub-district of Camberwell. Thtee deaths from scarlatina occurred in each of the fol- lowing sub-districts :—Kentish Town, Islington West, St. Clement Danes, St. Mary (St. George-in the-East), Mile-end Old Town West and East, Christchurch (Southwark), and Lambeth Church, second part. There were 31 fatal cases of diarrhoea ; 2 of cholera ; one of intermittent fever ; 7 of syphillis, all amongst infants ; and besides a case of delirium tremens, the deaths of five persons are stated as directly caused by intemperance. Of bricklayers one died in the week, of brick layers' children, 8 ; of carpenters 3 died in the week, of carpenters' wives, 2, of carpenters children, 14; of masons 1 died in the week, of masons' wives 1, of masons' children, 2 ; of painters 2 died in the week, of painters' wives, 2, of painters' children, 9 ; of plasterers' children 3 died. Last week the births of 872 boys and 918 girls, in all 1,790 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1849-58 the average number was 1,533. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.490 in. The readings fell from 29.86 in. on Tuesday, to 29.16 on Friday, being respectively the highest and lowest in the week. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 48.3 deg., which is less by 0.8 deg. than the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily range of temperature was 13.5 deg. ; the entire range in the week was great, namely, 36.5 deg., the difference between 64.5 deg., the highest reading in ne shade, which occurred on Sunday, and 28 deg., ~he lowest point (4 deg. below the freezing point of water) to which the thermometer fell on Saturday. The mean daily temperature was more than 6 deg. above the average on Sunday and Monday, and was more than 12 deg. below it on Friday and Satur days The mean temperature of the water of the Th a mes was 58.6 deg. The difference between the mean dew-point temperature and air temperature was 3.3 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 88 ; on Tuesday the humidity reached 100, which represents complete saturation. Till the afternoon of Thursday the wind blew from the south-west ; on Friday it was in the north, and on Saturday in the west and south-west. Rain fell to the amount of 0.53 in., the• greater part of it on Sunday and Monday. Lightning was frequent in the evening of Saturday. The minimum tempera ture of Saturday, 28 degs., was lower by 53 dogs. than the maximum of the 4th inst., and the mean temperature of Saturday, 36.3 degs., was 30.5 dogs. below that of the 4th inst., which was 66.8 degs. Tuesday, the 4th, is distinguished as being the hot test day in October for a period of more than 44 years.

AT Ik EDNESBUR 1; Yesterday afternoon Mr. G. H. Hinebliffe coroner, reopened the inquest upon the body of Jane Owen, who was killed by her husband, Benjamin Owen, at Wednesbury, last week. Owen is a beer house keeper at Wednesbury. Hannah Rogers, a girl of .15, heard deceased screaming in her husband's house, and also heard him tell her to leave the house, and declare with an oath that she should have no place to put her head in. Afterwards saw the deceased leave the house and go to Cresswell's, Owen following in a few minutes afterwards. Ile demanded admission at the closed door, and was at length let in. He went to the pantry, where his wife was concealed, and said, " I'll give you Moggy," pulled her out by the shoulder with one hand, and with his other fist struck her a violent blow under the left ear. He kicked at her also, but witness could not say whether his foot reached her. Owen then said, Pick the drunken --up," and th en l e f t the house. Mrs. 0 wen was not sober and could not walk straight, but her husband was sober. When he was fetched back to Cresswell's, after his wife's death, he seemed much affected, said it was the first time he struck her, and he was willing to die with her. After he struck her down in Cresswell's house deceased did not move again nor speak. Hannah Pitaway, wife of Thomas Pitaway, a puddler, deposed that she was passing by Owen's, when she saw deceased leaving her house, followed by her child in her night clothes; and Owen was behind them. Witness got into Cresswell's before Owen, but left when he obtained admission. Ann Williams, a married woman, saw three women drinking in Owen's house on Tuesday last, at about 20 minutes to 10; deceased drinking with them at their solicitation. She was "fresh," and was sitting down in the bar when Owen came in. She had been crying, and had told witness that because she had spoken to her sister Emma at the door her husband " had been having words with her." Owen said, " What's the matter with you ?" She made some reply, and Owen several times asked her to go to bed, but she refused, and Owen struck her. Witness saw her on the floor, but could not tell if the blow knocked her off. Owen told her to leave the house. She replied " Yes, Ben, I will," and went out. After she went out Owen said the deceased began to drink six weeks before, that she had respectable neighbours, and he was surprised that she harboured such women in his absence ; that he worked hard to keep a good home, but if she continued that course he would break the home up. He did not seem in a passion, and remained in his house talking to witness a quarter of an hour before he followed his wife. After she fell on the floor he kicked at her. Saw the deceased's daughter pull a pint cup from her mother's mouth. The daughter asked witness to try to get her to bed. Edward Williams, husband of last witness, gave similar testimony. Jemima 0 wen - , daughter of the deceased before her marriage, but who had passed as her sister, deposed that her mother drank with other women till she became intoxicated, on Tuesday. Took the cup from her mouth twice. Saw Owen strike her. Owen was a good father to witness, and a good husband to her mother, but did not know deceased was hor mother till the day of her death. Police-Inspector Blayney deposed that when he arrested Owen and charged him with the murder, Owen said, "I did not, Sir; I pulled her out of the cellar, and she, being drunk, fell against the door jam. lam very sorry for it. No two ever lived happier together." The distance from Owen's to Cresswell's house is 117 yards. Mr. G. W. Ilowitt, surgeon, who had made the post mortenz examination, deposed that death had occurred from congestion of the brain, occasioned by diffuse extravasation of blood all ovdr the brain. There was a mark of a severe contusion under the left ear, and at this point the brain was like a jelly, The extravasation was not the mere clotting occa sioned in cases of apoplexy. This extravasation had occasioned death, and it was produced apparently by the injuries hat were found on the left side of the head. Those injuries, in his opinion had not been occasioned by kicks. The coroner then summed up, and The jury returned a verdict of manslaughter, two of the 14 jurymen, after two hours' deliberation, holding out for a verdict of wilful murder. COLLIERY EXPLOSION AND LOSS OF FOUR LIVES. On Saturday morning, about six o'clock. an ex plosion of fire-damp took place at Washington Col liery, situated a few miles to the south of this town, by which three men and a boy have lost their lives. It, appears that the colliery is being worked in three scams; and that in the seam in which the explosion has taken place the only persons at work were the unfortunate deceased. Their names are William Richardson (horse -keeper, William Mould and Christopher Mould (hewers), and William Elgee (a driver-boy). Richardson and the Moulds have each left a wife and family. One of the Moulds has five children and the other three ; Richardson one. The immediate cause of the explosion is yet I unknown. Ever since it occurred unremitting exertions have been made to recover the bodies. That of Richardson was found close to the abaft. He was quite dead, and had evidently been killed by the after damp. The bodies of the other three sufferers have not been reached. That part of the pit in which the unfortunate fellows were work ing is still charged with gas, and consequently it has been impossible to reach the bodies, or to ascer tain the extent of damage which the pit has suf fered; but it is needless to say that every possible ap pliance has been had recourse to in order to get at themen. Immediately after the explosion Mr. Crud das, the viewer of the colliery, was at the pit, and he has been aided in his exertions by a great many of the viewers belonging to:the surrounding colleries. Though nothing is absolutely known as to the cause of the explosion, it is considered more than probable that the Moulds had been working with naked lights instead of lamps. Richardson had evidently run from the stables on hearing the ex plosion, and had endeavoured to reach the staple or communication with the lower seam, but the after damp had caught him when within a very short space of a place of safety. It is reported that a man named Bowes, an overman, ran to the staple and escaped by sliding down the rope to the next seam. The pit has always been considered in a good and safe condition. It is the property of Messrs. Kimpster, Bell, and Co. Another account says :—A terrible explosion took place in the Maudlin seam of the Washington Col liery, between five and six o'clock on Saturday morning. The overman (Mr. Bowes) went down with the men about an hour before the explosion took place, when all seemed right with the cur rent of air in that portion of the seam where the workmen were to work. The workings in this portion of the pit consist of an upper and lower seam, which were connected with a staple. At the time of the explosion the overman was in the lower seam near the staple, and feeling a concussion of air, which he concluded must be caused by an explosion in the upper seam, effected his escape from the pit by means of another outlet. By the explosion the brattice was broken and the ventila tion of the steam stopped ; but it was afterwards partially restored by means of a temporary brattice of cloth. The body of Richardson, the horse-keeper, was found near the staple. It was i m possible to effectually explore the scene of the disaster until a permanent brattice could be constructed , which was immediately commenced with, and it is expected will by this have been completed and the bodies of the unfortunate men and boy found. At the time of the explosion there was a supply of fresh air to the seam equal to 120,000 cubic feet from a large furnace which has been but recently built.—New castle Chronicle.

SHIREHALL, GLOCESTE ` 4 The following notice was posted o zyeA, the Shirehall this morning : " GLOCESTER ELECTIOI‘; INQUIRY COlllO /1C01441 S "The Commi,sioners h av i n g p ower , un er the Act of I'arliamer4, to award costs to witnesses who have been summoned before them, and who have appeared and'aris:*ered all que s ti on s p u t t o them to the full satisfaction of . the said Commissioners, this is to give notice that the secretary will attend from 10 o'eloek to four o'clock on Thursday, Oct. 27, in the Sliirchali, to . cons:der and satisfy the claims n' 0. n show that, owing to thei. ,Jaey absolutely require re muneration for their loss of time in appearing to give evidence before the said Commissioners. No persons making application will be attended to un less they produce the original summons served upon them, nor will any costs.be allowed to any witness who has been called in court and not answered to his name, although he may subsequently have been examined. " By order of the Commissioners. "CHARLiS EDWARD COLERIDGE, Secretary." The appearance of this notice has created not a little stir among the large number of Glocestcr wit nesses who consider that they are entitled to com pensation from being kept in attendance on the Commissioners, and who nevertheless consider that, in order to entitle themselves to remuneration, they must place themselves in the position of paupers before they can receive any allowance for their loss of time and detention from business. The following is an ektract from a letter read by Mr. J. Lovegrove yesterday to the Court. It was a communication made by Mr. Cooke, the barrister, to Mr. Lovegrove, as the result of the interview be tweenta him (M r . L ovegrove ) an d Si r R . C ar d en as the inspection by the latter of the accounts of the election of 1857 : " Sir Robert Carden considers that, in justice to you request. you and hi mse lf, h e ought not to write the letter yynnur r orllesas veracity, th a a n t d he th a t never h questioned epistle would impliedly admit he had done so. He also thinks that your proper pride and conscious integ rity should induce you to feel above such a method of character giving, and that your moral courage ought to make. you indifferent to insinuations of an imaginary or trumpery description. I n muc h o f thisl concu r" The commissioners to-day proceeded with the examination of witnesses in reference to the elec tion of 1857. Mr. Brewer Monk deposed that he undertook the management and control of the messengers en gaged on that occasion. He could not tell the number of - messengers employed, but the amounts paid were £6B 16s. and £2B 12s. 6d. A portion of these were voters and some non-voters. On the morning of the poll the agent, Mr. Viner Ellis, having . somewhat mysteriously disappeared, and he being in want of money to pay the out-voters, he applied to Mr. Hughes and Mr. S. Jones for money to pay them. Received £lO from each, and also a sum of money from Mr. Potter, which he stated was £94 ; it was in gold. He had gone through the register of 1857, and believed he paid the fol lowing sums on that occasion :—To Wm. Probert, jun., £9. It was a very small sum of money, but had no doubt he did what he could to buy votes. Had the greatest confidence in Probert, who had always worked with him. Gave George Allen about £B. It was for the purpose of winning the election, if we could. He did not ask for it, but witness said, " Here, Allen, we've got some money ; take the £8 and do the hest you can with it." Gave Thomas Green £l2, William Wingate £2, H. Merrett £2, and some other sums, which kft him a good balance in hand, which he distributed in small sums among voters for the purpose of con ciliating them, as he expected another election shortly. There was also £2 spent at a supper of electors to arrange evidence in support of the peti tion against Sir R. Carden's return. The witness enumerated a number of sums of money paid to dif ferent persons, electors and non-electors, for services rendered on the Liberal side during the election of 18 57—tavern bills, &e. The gratuities which he dispensed, after payipg all the claims made upon him, amounted to about £26. He should not have hesi tated in giving this money before the election, but hadnot got it then. Did not receive the money until the other party had bought up all the purchaseable commodity. Did not offer J. G. Gardner a bribe. Should like to see the man that dared to offer him one. He asked for money at 11 o'clock in the day, and if he had got it then it would have been of ser vice ; but he did not get it until 2, and it was too late then. The voters had nearly all polled, and there was no one left to bribe, so that he had no chance of bribing. From information he had re ceived he found the other party was going to bribe, and if he had had the money he should have done the same; but on representing the matter to the committee they said that if the others chose to bribe they must, but Mr. Ellis declared that not a penny should be spent in bribery or treating. Joseph Clarke, a pilot, who had been blind ever since 1857, was paid £5 for his vote in 1859, and nothing in 1857, for voting for Sir R. Carden. Harriet Clarke, wife of the last witness, had not received any money on account of her husband's vote in 1857, and corroborated her husband's testi mony in other respects. Mr. William Stephens was canvassed by Sir R. Carden and Mr. Butt in 1857, and refused to give him his vote. The witness went on to say that ho was arrested the same evening for a debt of £l4 at the suit of Air. Compton. On the morning of the election his (witness's) late father came to him. He was a partisan of Sir R. Carden. He said he had seen Mr. Lovegrove, and Mr. Lovegrove would ar range with his detaining creditor if he would vote for Sir R. Carden. He said this in the presence of the governor, the turnkey, and a fellow-debtor named Greening. Told his father he'd sooner have his tongue cut. Commissioner Welford—You refused then? Witness—Yes. I refused, and my father then said I had better remain where I was. Had never requested my father to see Mr. Lovegrove in refer ence to this. I had fully determined not to vote for Sir R. Carden. I was agent for the Conservative party before that. Mr. Lovegrove here stepped into the witness box, and said he had unfortunately had some diffe rences with the last witness, he having in April, 1857, recovered a judgment against him in a supe rior court for £l5O, and an offer had afterwards been made to witness by Mr. Wilkes of 6s. Bd. in the pound in payment, but he declined to accept it. In reply to Mr. Commissioner Vaughan, Mr. Lovegrove said most decidedly that he never offered to Mr. Stephens's father to settle with his detain ing creditor if he would vote for Sir R. Carden, and he had never seen his father respecting such an offey. Mrs. Dowers, wife of Robert Dowers, stated that her husband gave her £1 10s. of the £2 which he said he had received from Mr. Whithorn for "his trouble." He kept 10s. for his own purposes. James Brown voted for Carden in 1859, and re ceived £lO. Received nothing in 1857. William Bowkett received £lO from Thomas Evans to vote for Price and Monk at the last election. Mr. Goodrich deposed that he owned a good deal of tenement property in Glocester, and was a sup porter of the Conservative party. He canvassed his tenants for Sir R. Carden, but never threatened a tenant in arrear of rent to distrain on him if he did not vote for Sir R. Carden ; nor did he ever give, or threaten to give, any tenant a notice to quit in consequence of not votin e , cr according to his (Mr. Goodrich's) wishes. Had not exercised any undue influence on a tenant named Fletcher to obtain his vote. Henry Townsend received £s from Evans for voting for Price and Monk, and £ 2 in 1857, also from Evans. William Burgess received £4 10s. for voting for Sir It. Carden at the last election. John Haling voted for Price and Monk at the last election, and received £6 from Harry Jacobs. Was a messenger in 1857, and voted for Carden. Received ls. - William Woodcock received £6 from Jacobs for voting for Price and Monk at the last election. John Llewellin received £5 from W. Fletcher for voting for Price and Monk at the last election. - William Lee received £6 for voting for Price and honk at the last election. All these voted for Car den without pay in 1857. Several other witnesses gave similar evidence, after which the Court adjourned for the day. The Archdeacon of Canterbury has appointed the Rev. James Clarke Franks, M.A., to the rectory of St. Margaret's, Canterbury, vacant by the secession of the Rev. E. H. Woodhall. Mr. Franks has not recently done any parochial duty, but we (Kentish Gazette) believe that formerly he held the curacy of St. Mary's, Whittlese y, Cambridgeshire. It is understood that the views of the now rector are those of a moderate high churchman. PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris is about 1 dis. and the short exchange:on. London is 25.121 per £1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the 'Eng lish Mint price of £3 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is at about 1-10th per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 423 per mark, and the short exchange the on London is 13 . 4 per £l. s terling. Standard gold English Mint price is therefore at about the same price in London as in Hamburg. The course of s . change at New York on London for bills at 60 days:,. Tn . is about - 1102 per cent., which, when compat w!tell the Mint par - between the two countries, showsaher tinnaignilg change is in favour of England s ; and,_ allowance for charg inte rest, the present rate loaves a small profit on the po ta b tion of gold from the Uhited ,Stator. es of transport andditterenco .o ra f r
