"'Dr. Piekford 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 Spermatorrlicea 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.

Till ether arrangements are authorised, the persons composing the Reserve Force shall be attached during pe riods of training and exercise, or when called out for the other purposes specified in the said act, to any Infantry Regi ment, or depot, or to the Enrolled Pensioner Force, which ever may, by the.Secrotary of State for War, be considered most convenient, and shall obey all orders of the officers or non-commissioned officers of such Regiment, Depot, or Enrolled Pensioner Force, while so attaced. 3. Every persoa thus enrolled shall be bound to register his place of abode in the books of the pension district in which he receives enrolment money, and to abide thereat, and not remove therefrom, without giving due notice ; and the distance of his residence is not, in any case, except by special authority, to exceed 30 miles from the head-quar ters of such Pension District. 4. All persons enrolled in this Reserve Force shall be bound to attend regularly at the hour and place of assem bly, when called out for training and exercise, either with the Regiment Depot or Pensioner Force to which they may have been attached as aforesaid, for a period not exceeding 12 days in each year, or at any time and place, when called on for the preservation of the public peace, or during such period as her Majesty may require their services within the United Kingdom, in the event of invasion or immi nent danger thereof, or in case of war ; on all which occasions they will be under the command of the General Commanding-in-Chief of her Majesty's Forces, and subject to the Articles of War. 6. All persons failing to attend on these occasions without reasonable cause, or when they have volunteered their ser vices for permanent duty, or who may be convicted of any serious misconduct or breach of discipline while so em ployed, or of violence or disrespect at any time towards the officers entrusted with their payment and superintendence, or who shall be guilty of any fraudulent statement at their enrolment, shall, in addition to any other penalty, be liable to dismissal from the Force, with the forfeiture wholly or in part of the several advantages authorised by this War rant. 6. On the termination of the period of service for which these men have engaged in the Reserve Force, and on the fulfilment of the other conditions, they shall be entitled to the same rates of pension as they would have attained by the Warrants under which they originally enlisted, had they continued to serve in the corps from which they were discharged till they completed the period of 21 and 2 t years respectively, and they shall be permitted to add to such pension an amount equal to the good-conduct pay of which they had been in continuous receip t for two years immediately preceding the date of their discharge. Such pension, however, shall in no case exceed tenpence a day for a private, one shilling for a corporal, or one shilling and threepence for a sergeant or other superior non-commissioned officer; but except by special authority no service shall be reckoned for any year in which the person enrolled has not resided at his registered place of abode, or has unlawfully absented himself during any portion of the exercise for which he shall have been called out in terms of the act above referred to. 7.

The follow ing is a brief enumeration of the estates in Britain possessed by the noble lord, and the titles under which he holds them : —lst, in England—Estates in the counties of Essex and Cambridge, derived through the North family; a large estate in Bedfordshire, derived through the third Earl of Bute, a large portion of which still remains; a large estate in Durham, derived through the Claverings, an heiress of which family married the last Viscount Windsor. The collieries on this estate yield a large yearly revenue. In Wales—His vast Glamorganshire estates, derived through the Herberts, Earls of Pembroke, and their representatives, the Windsors, Viscounts Windsor. In Scotland—Nearly the whole Isle of Bute (tripled in its annual return since the last 30 years), derived through a branch of the world renowned house of Stuart, hereditary sheriffs, afterwards I Earls of Bute ; large estates in the counties of Ayr and.

Last evening the Earl of Malmesbury, whose country seat, Heron-court, is near this town, and Admiral 'Walcott, M.P. for the borough, attended the anniversary of the Vales of Avon and Stour Farmers' Club. . The Earl of MALMESBUItY, responding on behalf of " The Army," said :—" It may not be inappropri ate to this toast and on such an occasion as this, to say a few words—and a very few words they shall be—with respect to the military conduct of the, population of this district. You will, perhaps, ecinie of you have been surprised that when so great . o, movement has taken place throughout great Britain as that which has, I believe, raised 100,000 volun teers in this country, ready to repel any invasion which may be made upon its shores, this town, so near to the southern coast, and probably so much more exposed than many others to foreign attack, should not up to this moment have ostensibly dis played any of that enthusiasm which we have met with elsewhere ; but if the public believe that we have been entirely neglectful in this matter, that we have been careless of our duty to our country, and have thought it not worth while to exert ourselves in the same way as our fellow-countrymen, they must be told that it is only in appearance, and that the fact is not so. (Hear, hear.) The fact is this, having had the honour not long agesto be a member of In r Majesty's Government, I know how anxious her Majesty's then Government were, and I know how anxious herMajestysspiteseet Goyernthent are, Thai as much as possible, and especially on the - coaiits'of England, these volunteer forces should be formed of artillery ; and I was desired by members of her Majesty's Government to exert myself to raise, if possible, and to encourage an artillery force in this district in preference to a corps of riflemen. I will not go into the question of the relative utility of the two forces, but I entirely agree with those men of military experience who have urged this upon me, and I believe that a force of volunteer artillery, provided we were defended by batteries erected by the Government, would be more pecu liarly essential in the defence of this harbour, town, and roadstead, than any body of volun teer infantry could be. , (Hear.) Holding these opinions, I was assisted by several gentlemen of this neighbourhood in bringing out this project, and we met three or four times in committee, with the view of carrying it out manfully. I invited to Heron-court Sir John Burgoyne and his aide-de camp, who surveyed Hengistbury Head and the coast to Highcliffe: They pointed out to me that those two points might be fortified with very great advantage to the security of the roadstead and har bour. I proceeded to address myself to the War Department on the subject, and you may be aware that not long ago a Royal Commission was appointed by the Crown to make a report upon the fortifications necessary for the protection of the coast. I thought it wise, until the report was is sued, to leave this question in abeyance, and not to raise a force of volunteer artillery in this district until we were certain that batteries would be erected for our defence, and this was my reason for so delaying the matter. You will see by the condi. • tions under which volunteers are enrolled that they will be obliged to serve at the nearest batteries to the locality in which they are resident; and there fore, if we had no batteries on these heads, and near to this locality, the nearest batteries to Christ. churth would be Hurst, Calshot, and perhaps Portsmouth. It would be altogether out of the range of possibility that gentlemen and persons employed as those whom I see before me could, under any circumstances, give up their time so as to leave the locality altogether,_ and go to these distant fortifications, although they might spare a certain number of hours any day for drill at the batteries which were erected close to their own homes. (Hear, hear.) I therefore pro posed to the committee that no serious steps should be taken with the view of forming an artillery volunteer corps until I had ascertained whether the Government would erect batteries at i a reasonable distance from this town. I have ascertained that —probably from a necessary economy-e-the Govern ment has decided that no batteries will be erected in towns which are not either commercial or mili tary towns, and that they could of consider Christchurch as coming under one o ese catego ries. We should therefore, although: ermitted to have practising batteries—although th Government would send us down a couple of gun, for the pur pose of drill and instruction—sti , practically speaking, we should be liable to be ent, when a serious occasion occurred, the whole ay to Calshot Castle or to Portsmouth, which is ev dently out of the sphere of local volunteers. (Hea .) This being l h the case, I should recommend—and I expect that the inhabitants of Christchurch and the locality would probably prefer it—joining in the general movement of our fellow-countrymen in other parts of the kingdom, and forming a volunteer rifle corps instead of one f artillery. (Cheers.) I very much regret that we are driven to this alternative, be cause, on the ground of utility, artillery is (sae of the best of all defences on the coast, and I am per suaded that if we had fortifications within our reach we should have been more useful as artillery than as riflemen. Still, there can be no doubt that volunteer corps of riflemen maybe of service. It would be a slur upon us if Christchurch were behind the rest of Great Britain, and I trust that an effort will be made to raise a respectable corps of rifle men. (Cheers.) Admiral WALCOTT, M.P., in responding for " The Navy," in a retrospect of the past year referred first to the gallant deeds of our seamen, marines, and soldiers at the mouth of the Peillo as beyond example great; they held to their guns even while their vessels were sinking under their feet ; they withstood a most withering fire, and their heroic admiral—a case unexampled—shifted his flag from ship to ship as each became successively sunken. It was an exploit the gallantry of which was never surpassed, and of which the country might be justly proud. He trusted that the flag of England would make a pathway for the missionaries of religion. Another great proof had been given of the intrepi dity of British seamen. Capt. Mtlintock had re turned to England with authentic proofs of the death of Sir John Franklin and of 136 men and officers having accomplished the discovery, though with the loss of their lives, of a north-west passage. Peace and honour to their memories ! England had had the great good fortune of escaping from the horrors of a continental war through the exertions of the late Government and the statesmanlike views of the late Foreign Secretary of State, to whom the country was much beholden. (cheers.) In India the intrepidity and discipline of our troops had overcome one of the most formidable mutinies. The gallant admiral, in conclusion, said—l am perfectly satisfied that a highminied policy is the best pro tector of peace, and that preparation for war is the best preventive against it. I have listened with great satisfacttion to the statement of the noble earl with respect to the introduction of a volunteer corps. The volunteer system of rifle corps forms a most formidable and useful auxiliary in the field; but I am rejoiced to find that the feverish excitement of the public mind has been set at rest, and that our capacity for resistance is no longer, as it has been, a matter of debate. It is my firm conviction that if ever the case should occur that a foe should invade our shores there will be found in every English field au English Joan of Arc and on every battle ment an English flag and an English Maid of Sara gossa. Our safety depends upon our insular posi tion, our unity among ourselves, our loyalty and devotion to our Sovereign, and the honour in which we hold our country ; and be assured that if such an occasion as an invasion should arise, the merest strippling in the country will be found ready to meet the crisis, and the enemy will find that ho has kindled a fire the flame and smoke of which will extinguish him for ever. (Cheers.) Mr. TICE proposed " The Health of Lord Malmesbury." He observed that when the noble earl succeeded to office it was at the time of a con tinental crisis, when Europe was in such a position that it became a matter of difficulty and tact for any Government which might be at the helm of affairs. The noble earl showed by his administra tion that he was an ardent lover of peace, and when he resigned the seals of office the threatened danger had in a great measure passed away. (Cheers.) The Earl of MAL:SIESBURY, in reply, said-1 am, indeed, deeply touched at the very flattering speech which I have just heard from Mr. Tice. Compli ments are commonly paid on these occasions—com pliments, of course—compliments which are ex pressed of course and received of course, yet mere compliments they are. But more than that has been expressed, as far as my personal feelings are concerned, by my friend Mr. Tice ; for yon may safely believe me that, among the changes and chances of public lifs, its immense anxieties in such a position as that which I had the honour of hold ing for some 15 months, among very difficult times —when relieved from the heavy weight of respon sibility—a responsibility almost toomuch for human nature on many occasions to bear—you may safely believe that, being relieved from such a responsibi lity and returning to a quiet house and to domestic habits from so stormy a sphere as that which I have left, it is with the greatest satisfaction that one can possibly feel to know that one's neighbours, whom you knew before taking a heavy task, meet you with open hands and smiling faces when you return to these scenes from those stormy ones. Ido not boast of having succeeded in the great task which was before me. I did not prevent a great and a bloody war. I did not prevent the deaths of some 80,000 or 100,000 men who fell on the fair and fer tile plains of Italy ; but this I believe, with the help of God, I did prevent—l prevented a general European war —(cheers)—this I behave, with the `ltelt) of red and the assistance of my colleagues, I did prevent —that the 'Tar should have extended beyond the sphere it did; and if my word is doubted it is proved by the statements of the Emperor of the French and of the Emperor of Aus tria themselves—the one complaining that he was not assisted by England, the other saying that Prussia did not come to his aid, and both cir cumstances being those which prevented their con tinuing the struggle any longer- (Cheers.) It has been properly stated this evening that this is not a political meeting, but I should not be acting re spectfully to Mr. Tice, who has just spoken, or to you, who probably listened to him and heard his remarks on me with pleasure, if I did not say that to the last day of my life I shall always thank Heaven that I was the humble means of prevent ing a war which I believe would have extended to as great a length of time as the great war which swept away so many millions of men and swamped so ninny millions of money, (Loud cheers.) THE VOLUNTEER MOVEMENT. VOLUNTEER - RIFLE CORPS, PADDINGTON. Last night a most numerous meeting was held at the Vestry-hall, Paddington-green, to promote the formation of a volunteer rifle corps in the parish; Mr. Raikcs Currie in the chair. The CHAIRMAN, in introducing the subject to the meeting, said that some months ago the prelimi nary steps had been taken for the formation of a rifle corps in the parish of Paddington; and it was only to avoid precipitate action in the matter that the object then initiated had not been carried out. Since then a course had been taken by the press which earned for it the gratitude of the nation. He was contented to leave the question as it had been put in the speech of Lord Clarendon, reported in z ihat morning's newspapers. Ile felt sure that the parish of Paddington would not be behindhand, and in proof of that he would mention that only after three days' canvass nearly £l,OOO had been raised for the purpose of aiding the young men of the neighbourhood—the thews and sinews of the country—to place themselves in a position to up hold in its integrity the liberty which they had received from their fathers. (Hear, hear.) They had a population in the parish of 50,000, possessing as much energy, youth, intelligence, and property, as any portion of the metropolis ; and with these elements of success he felt sure they would form a corps which wouldbo second to none. (Hear, hear.) In promoting this object he felt they were initiat ing the very best peace league that was ever ad vocated, because it would prove to any potentate or nation that might be influenced by the blood-stained phantom of glory or ambition to in vade the land, that they were as a nation prepared to defend it ; and he felt convinced that history would have to record the repulse and punishment of any such mad and unprovoked aggression. (Cheers.) Vice-Chancellor KINDERSLEY, in proposing the first resolution, said it required no at gument from him to enforce it, as the voice of the country had already pronounced upon it. It was--" That it was expedient to form a volunteer rifle corps in that parish." That was a resolution which they would all concur in, for it had, in fact, been already carried by the people of England. If nothing but the mere fact of organisation resulted from this movement, that was in itself a great advantrge. (Hear.) Leaving out of consideration all questions of discipline—the goose step, the facings, and all the rest—the simple fact of being able through organisation to make oneself useful, when an emer gency arose, in the most effectual manner, instead of running about not knowing what to do or where to go, was a very great advantage. But that was not all. Organisation was most valuable, but he did not think that any words could express the value of such an organisation as that which they were then promoting. In Louis Philippe's reign —in 1840, h e thougt—there was a talk of war with England, and of an invasion of this country by France. There was a great stir about it, and it was really expected. When the matter was talked of is the 1~ rench cabinet, or salons, the Minister of Louis Philippe, M. Thiers—an able man, whatever else he was—said, ".Bah! male ee peuple." They might get men by hook or by crook into regiments to defend any country, but when men of intelligence, activity, zeal, and capacity enrolled themselves as volunteers, what might not be expected from them ? (Hear.) It was the opinion of a military man of groat capa city and experience, that the materials of which this organisation would be formed were the most superb that could be brought together—that they had all the spring, elan, and zest for the service which were necessary. (Hear.) There was a word sometimes used on this subject—the word panic. (Hear, hear.) Paddington knew no panic. (Hear, hear.) They had not been in a panic. Some, who ought to have known better, spoke indeed of a panic, but the country was no more in a panic than the man who, being told that a fellow was going to waylay him with a big stick, says, " Very well, I shall get a big stick too." (Hear, hear.) If there were any blustering Bobadils who said that they should be invaded, it was no panic to reply, " Very well, we shall be prepared for you." (Cheers.) Even in times of profound peace, was it not a mea sure of wisdom anti common sense that we should be prepared to prove that nobody should trench upon our liberties, and that we were ready to hold our own against the world? (Hear, hear.) Let them take care not to make a mere holiday pastime of this matter, or let it get cold when the novelty of it wore away. (Hear.) Let them take care not to become the laughing stock instead of the admi ration of others. This was not the movement of a Government trying to raise 400,000 or 500,000 men—it was the people of England saying they were determined to defend themselves. History would look to it as a very remarkable and admirable movement. Let them not therefore begin it in any mere dilettante spirit, but promote it as a duty which they owed to themselves and their country. (Cheers.) General DOWNING, in seconding the resolution, said that, although he did not believe the Emperor of the French would lay a hand against a country which had protected him and showed him so much hospitality in his need, he quite concurred in the propriety of the present movement, and felt con vinced that au invasion of this country, if one were to take place, would be fruitless to a degree, and end in the destruction of the invading host. He would put down his name amongst the efficients if the movement was to be carried out. (Cheers.) He was efficient, and had no doubt that lie could handle a rifle, go on march, and do his facings as well as the best. (Laughter and cheers.) He had a lingering of military blood in him, and nothing was more calculated to excite it than an invasion of the country, when they might be called on to pro. tect their homes and families. (Hear, hear.) He would only say, in conclusion, that he would pro mote the movement in every way to the utmost of his power. (Hear, hear.) The resolution was then put and adopted. Mr. E. JAMES, M.P., proposed the next resolu tion, which was to the effect that the corps should consist of honorary and enrolled members ; that for the honorary members the subscription should be £'2 25., and the donation ,£IO 10s., and that the subscription for the enrolled members should not exceed £1 ls., with an entrance fee of 10s. There was so much nneasiness and mysteriousness abroad that England would be deficient in dignity and love of country if she was not prepared for any event. He should be sorry to see the movement subside as soon as the dread of invasion was gone. He desired to see them go about this affair in a serious, studious, and business like manner, so as to make it appear that whatever might happen they were defended within them selves. (Hear, hear.) One of the most sagacious, and one of the most mysterious of men had made himself the arbiter of the peace of Europe. He was now at peace with, and he hoped that peace might be lasting ; but when they knew that his single will was unshackled by a press or by a parliament— when they were told by Mr. Disraeli, then Chan cellor of the Exchequer, that he was not preparing for war only three weeks before he invaded Italy —when, only two days before it took place, Count Walewski declared that the Emperor did not con template war with Austria, and when the necessity for disarmament had been denied, on the ground that France was not arming, although shortly after an army of 200,000 men, fully organised and equipped, were thrown into Italy, it was time for them, not to take a hostile attitude indeed, but to be 2HE NAVY.

She sailed from Malta Dec. 17, experienced heavy gales, and anchored under the lee of the island of Galeta, on the 20th of December, for 46 hours, and Cape Talas (near Carthagena) for 20 hours ; starting again from the latter place on the 27th, and arriving at Gibraltar on the 30th. The English fleet at the rock com prised the Marlborough, Victor Emmanuel, Orion, Brunswick, Neptune, Doris, Czesar, Mohawk, and Vulture. She left the rock on the 2d inst., with light winds from the southward, and veering to a stiff breeze from the westward, on the 3d increasing to a hcayy gale; on the 4th and sth had bulwarks considerably damaged, starboard binnacle washed away, stern port burst open end washed away, two jibs and mizen split, and mizen-boom carried away. On the evening of the 6th the weather moderated and veered round from north to the eastward, and became fine. Tho ship had a splendid run up Chan nel on Sunday night, with clear bright weather, and anchored at Spithead at 10.10 a.m. yesterday. She brings home a few supernumerary invalids. The Arcona, 28, screw (Prussian frigate), Capt. Sundowald, at Spithead, requires docking, and will, it is expected. go into Portsmouth harbour for that purpose if a dock can be provided for her. The Mare, 80, screw, Capt. Strange, is expected to leave Portland for Spithead, according to present orders, on the 12th inst. The slides for launching her Majesty's ship Ba rossa, under construction at Woolvvick, have been brought out into the river and preparations com menced for the launch, which will take place at an early date. A portion of the factory has been ceded to the smiths employed in the shipwrights depart ment of the dockyard, in consequence of an *in creased number of that body having been taken on, in order to complete the whole of the ships now in a forward state, if possible, by the end of the finan cial year.

The remainder of the regiment will follow this day. on being relieved from duty in the detached forts, Isle of Wight. - ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. READING, TUESDAY. The contest, arising from the vacancy created by the promotion of Sir Henry S. Keating to the judicial bench, derived additional interest from the religious element imported into it. The very strict portion of the religious community have regarded the introduction of a Jew as an insult upon the constituency, and as a direct attack upon the great principles of Christianity. In the first half-hour, Mr. Benson, the Conservative, obtained a majority; but it was reduced in a quarter of an hour, and at 9 o'clock he lost the position, the numbers being— Sir F. Goldsmid 246 Mr. Benson 243 The aspect of affairs was then further altered, the Liberals having mustered in tolerable strength, and obtained for Sir F. Goldsmid a majority of 32, the state of the poll being at the next announcement — Sir F. Goldsmid 427 Mr. Benson .. 395 The polling was kept up with spirit ; but the majority for the Liberal candidate increased, as ap pears by the statements annexed : ELEVEN O'CLOCK. Sir F. Goldsmid Mr. Benson TWELVE O'CLOCK. Sir F. Goldsmid Mr. Benson 524 ONE O'CLOCK. Sir F. Goldsmid Mr. Benson 536 Two O'CLOCK. Sir F. Goldsmid Mr. Benson 550 THREE O'CLOCK. Sir F. Goldsmid 856 Mr. Limon 556 CLOSE OF THE POLL. Sir F. Goldsmid 662 Mr. Bouson 560 Majority lO2 _ . _ The skirmishes in front of the polling-booth were frequent in the course of the day, and particularly after 4 c/clock, when the poll was closed and Sir F. Goldsmid was known to have been the successful cawdidate. He then made his appearance on the balcony of a tradesman, Mr. Hunt, in the Market place, and was received with cheers, m i n gled with terrific groaning and uproar. He, however , was heard by a portion of the congregated mass to say the battle had been gallantly fought, and the vic tory triumphantly won. Considering the efforts made to persuade them that their religious duty required them to abandon their political principles, the issue of the contest must be considered in the highest degree satisfactory. He felt that the elec tors of Reading would never have cause to regret having placed him in the position in which he then stood, and, thanking them from the bottom of his heart, he for the present bade them farewell. The bon: member then retired amid loud cheer ing, which was followed by some skirmishes between the placard bearers of the two candidates. The interference of the police prevented any serious breach of the peace. In the evening the town got more tranquil. (Teem the Report ty the Registrar-General.) The deaths in London, which rose to 1,677 in the last week of 1859, tell to 1,251 in the first week of the New Year. This favourable result is due to a warmer state of the air, the mean temperature of which for the last fortnit - .been as high as 44 deg., or about 8 deg. abo ' Taking the deaths of the first week it years 1850-59, it will be found that the average number was 1,247 ; but as the deaths in The present return occurred in a population which has increased, they should be compared with the average raised in proportion to the increase, namely, with 1,372. The 1,281 deaths of last week are therefore fewer by 91 than those which would hare occurred if the average rate of mortality fbr the season had pre vailed. It is satisfactory to notice a further decline in scarlatina. Adding diphtheria to nis head, the numbers of deaths in the last three weeks were 99, 77, and 66. There were 20 last week from diphthe ria, and 7 of these occurred in Islington, Camden town, and Kentish-town. Of 32 from measles, 3 were in-Chelsea northwest, 3 in St. John Westmin ster, 4in St. Pat], Deptford. Small-pox was less fatal than in some previous weeks ; the cases re corded declined to 32, of which 8 are returned by the Small-pox Hospital. In the last two weeks bronchitis was fatal successively in 278 and 159 cases; pneumonia in 151 and 98 cases. Four per sons died of intemperance, 2 of delirium tremens; 9 children died by suffocation, 3 were murdered. Eight persons (all women) died at 90 and 92 years of age. Of bricklayers 2 died in the week, of lricklayers' wives 3, of bricklayers' children 9 ; of carpenters 6 died, of carpenters' wives 7, of carpenters' children 22; of masons 1 died, of masons' children 4 ; of painters 5 died, of painters' wives 2, of painters' children 4 I; of plasterers 2 died, of plasterers' w.iylk" , : 1, of plasterers' children 3 Last week the births of 1,003 boys and 1.005 girls, in all, 2,008 cliidren, were registeaed in Lon don. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1850-59 the average number was 1,604. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.294 in. 'The range of readings was from 28.65 in. on Thurs day, the lowest, to 30.15 in. on Saturday, the highest, showing a variation of 1.50 in. - The mean temperature of the air in the week was 43.5 deg., which is 7.3 deg. above the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily temperature was above the average till Saturday, and this excess was gteatest on the first three days, when it was from 11 deg, to 16 deg. The thermometer in the shade attained 55.5 deg. on Tuesday, the highest point in the week ; and it fell to 29.5 deg., the lowest, on Saturday. The range of temperature in the week was there fore 26 deg. The mean daily range was 8 . 5 deg. The temperatures of New Year's Day should be re marked, the highest was 55 degs. the lowest 50 deg., and therefore the range only 5 deg. The dif ference between the mean dew-point temperature and air temperature was 4 . 6 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 85. The mean tempe rature of the water of the Thames was 44.9 deg. The wind blew till Friday from the south-west, it then changed to north, and on Saturday afternoon turned to west. The amount of rain in the week was 0.30 in., part of which fell on every day except Saturday. DEATHS IN LONDON IN THE LAST QUARTER OF 1849. (Froni the Registrar-General's Deport.) In the 13 weeks that ended 31st December, 15,736 deaths were registered in London, of wheih 7,341 occurred in that part of the population which was passing the first 20 years of existence. The mor tality was not so great as it was in the same period of 1858, when the deaths at all ages rose to 17,688. Last quarter exhibited extremes both in its mor tuary and meteorological experience; for the weekly deaths were about 900 in the middle of October, and rose to nearly 1,700 at the end of December, and the mean weekly temperature of the air, which was 62 deg. at the commencement of the period, fell within a few weeks of its close to 29 deg. The mean temperature of the quarter was 43 . 1 deg., which is nearly the same as that of the corresponding period in 1855, but lower than in any corresponding period of the intervening years, especially 1857, when the mean temperature of its last three months rose to 48 deg. In comparing the results of the December quar--. tor for the years 1858 and 1859, it is a subjedt:or...:. satisfaction to note a decrease of the mortality from all miasmatic diseases, with only one im portant exception. That exception is furnished by small-pox, the deatles from which rose from 118 to 435. This total of 435 deaths in last quarter was drawn chiefly from the following sub-districts : —St. Mary Paddington, St. John Westminster, Kentish Town, St. Giles South, Whitecross-street, Town of Bethnal-green, Spitalfields, Mile-end Old Town _East, London-road, St. Peter 'Walworth, Waterloo-road (Ist and 2d parts), and Lambeth Church (2d part). The Registrar of St. John, Marylebone, refers to an insufficient supply of lymph for vaccination. Amongst those localities which as regards mortality from small-pox have enjoyed total or partial immunity in the quarter, the following may be specified :--13rompton, Ham mersmith, and Fulham, Chelsea, Charing-cross, St. James Westminster, Tottenham-court-road, Hack ney, St. Giles North, Holborn and Saffron-hill, Holton and Haggerston, Greenwich, and the sub district of St. James Bermondsey, in which last it deserves to be mentioned that not a single death from this disease has occurred for a period of nearly six months. Last quarter 1,127 deaths were the result of scarlatina, and 141 of diphtheria. If the two com plaints are taken together, it is shown that they were fatal in 31 cases in St. John, ll'estminster, in 40 in Kentish Town, 114 in the two sub-districts of Islington, 22 in Cripplegate, 53 in the three sub districts of St. George-in-the-East, 54 in Mile-end ( 0 2 1 Town, dd part), 2 2 4 1 in in he s u Lambeth-di inb l e J t - h d i s c t l h r tof rat (2 1\ a ' Waterloo-road nrad 8o in Greenwich East, 13 in Plumstead, and 26 in Rotherhithe. An open sewer, nearly 18 feet wide, known as the Black Ditch, putrid with the col lected tribute of parishes and factories, forms a feature of Rotherhithe. Small-pox was not fatal except in one instance in this district, but several families living in the vicinity of the ditch were attacked by it. Intemperance among the adult population has not yet received a final blow, or even a heavy dis couragement, from the active and well-intentioned efforts made for its suppression, judging from the number of deaths which directly flow from it within stated periods. Last quarter intemperance and delirium tremens caused 70 deaths ; in the four corresponding periods. of 1855-8 there were 50, 46, 76, and 48. Nine persons died from want of the necessaries of life ; 111 infants from want of breast milk and inanition ; 23 children were murdered ; 92 were suffocated ; 133 mothers died after child birth. 8T ATE OF TRADE. LEEDS, Jan.lo.—The weather was very thick and foggy during the hours for the public markets in th cloth-halls this morning, so that business tran sactions were a good deal impeded. The tone of the market, however, was cheerful, and a good deal of business was done, chiefly in mixtures and other light fabrics, in the course of the day. MANcllEsmn, 10th.—An exceedingly largo busi ness has been done in 20's, 24's, and 28's warps and pincops for Holland and Germany, and prices have advanced id to id per lb. In other yarns there is not much doing in consequence of the higher rates spinners have been led to ask through the consider able business done last week for India, China, and other markets. These advances buyers do not seem disposed to give, but the market is strong and healthy, and the tendency of the market generally is upwards. In cloths we have a quiet market, without any c hange in prices as regards India, fabrics. There are no stocks, however, and there fore prices arc well kept up. The demand for long cloths and T-cloths continues good, and prices are steady. For printing cloths the finer makes are most in request. The lower qualities are not so brisk, but prices are fair. Fine and doubled yarns continue iu request. -- ROCHDALE, 9th.—The trade for wool to-day has been rather inactive, but prices are very firm. The manufacturers are partly keeping holyday to-day, but they have plenty of work to go on with. The Yorkshire trade continues good, and the prospects for the season are satisfactory. A VOLUNTEER AT PRACTICE.—One evening las week, about a quarter past nine o'clock, Robert Gregson, a glazier, living in Braughten-road, was passing up En combe-place, Salford, when his attention was arrested by the mysterious movements of a man dressed in volunteer rifle uniform. His curiosity expanded to amazement when he observed this brave defender of his country present a rifle with which he was armed, at Out illuminated disc of St. Philip's Church clock, and blaze away at that most eligible of targets. As soon as the gallant volunteer, who proved himself to be thus eager to be prerared to drive an invader from our shores, found that his little eccentricities were observed, he suddenly discovered the use of a pair of other organs of defence—to wit, his legs—which he applied so vigorously that the arm of civil law has not yet beenable to teach him that church clocks were not made for ' 4 rifle practice."--Salford nekly 21-cics. ~ ~b`'~` rt off ved. ,plea ther ) 385; ) 44. ) 40. ) Ms with ek's corn ) 39s ) 40s ) 41. ) 3k ) 41. )44• ) 38s !rads f last khow. to 301 t• 28■ --s to 50s ,o fair 0 49s a• fine • qr. ; 24s to 8s to Dne.
