ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ; 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 Sexual Hypochrondriasis. 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. - 4 . The+ editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying hare 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 Spermatorrhaea 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. Bailliere, 219, Regent-street. ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE IN HEALTH AND DISEASE. Just Published, price ls., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps, SECOND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi tioner of twenty years' standing. 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 degree almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE.

STAMPED, SD. VOLUNTEER CORPS,. NEWBURY. A meeting of an influential character was held in this town on Thursday in order to adopt mea sures for the establishment of a rifle club or corps. As it was market day there were many of the coun try people present who were interested in the esta blishment of additional national defences. The chair was taken by the Mayor of the town. Captain VERNON, M.P. for the county, was called upon to move the first resolution,—That it was de sirable to form a rifle corps for Newbury and its vicinity. He remarked that her Majesty's Govern ment, yielding to the desire of the people, had de cided on volunteer corps being established through out the kingdom. This had long been the general wish of the people, for it was in flu} recollection of everybody that during the Crimean war, and sub sequently when the invasion panic was at its height, the public journals teemed with letters calling for the formation of volunteer corps, and the Government of the day was urged on all sides for its sanction, and even without that sanction -or recognition in any way rifle corps or clubs were formed, and still existed, andiwould form a nucleus to those now in process of enrolment. The Govern ment had yielded to the wishes of the people, and very properly so, to his mind, as he proposed to show. The two greatest military Powers in Europe, so far as numbers were concerned, stood face to face in murderous antagonism. He said murderous, because an unjust war like this was, at the best, but a license to murder. But their strife was none the less desperate because it was purposeless, arid must inevitably terminate in mutual discomfiture. If the vanquished lost much the victor would gain nothing, while the miniature Monarch of Sardinia, whose restless ambition first disturbed the peace of Italy, and now disturbed the peace of the continent, and jeopardised that of .Europe, would inevitably reap the just z eward of his reckless conduct. (Cheers.) He had sown the wind, and would reap the whirl wind. If Austria, his aggrieved enemy, were the conqueror, Sardinia would be pinioned and stripped of his feathers; his ambitious flight would be closed for ever. If his ally and brother despot, Louis Na poleon, gained the ascendancy, judging by the ac tionof his uncle, whose humble imitator he professed to be, he thought Victor. Emmanuel and his already g over-taxed and by that time thoroughly ruined people would curse the day when the first French soldiers marched into Italy, and turned their happy and fertile land into a wilderness of bloodshed and of rapine. (Cheers.) Russia was massing her forces on the boundaries of Austria. Prussia was placing her army upon a war footing, and the smaller states and kingdoms of Germany, bound to Austria by a common language and a common fatherland, linked also by a common hatred of France for evils inflicted in days gone by, were arming themselves, ready and willing to join in a war that offered to their angry passions a prospect of the wild justice of re venge. When the distant mutterings of thunder were heard he was wise who prepared for the com ing storm. When Europe from one extremity to the other echoed with war and rumours of war, from which we professed to stand aloof in armed neutra lity, what would ensure that neutrality being re spected P Why, the fact of its being a neutrality armed to the teeth. The great Duke of Wellington used to say, that nation was most secure in main taining peace which was supposed to be the best prepared for war. (Cheers.) Then let us be pre pared for war. Let us not seek it, but let us not flinch from it if it, seek us. (Cheers.) Let us be prepared for defence as well as offence, but, at the least possible cost to the country—not by an undue increase of the standing army, but by in corporating the unpaid and self-equipped body of volunteers—men whoshould not be withdrawn from the commerce and agriculture of the country,—men whose spirit and enterprise in the peaceful pursuits of life had made our glorious England the prosper ous land it was, men who, making the dangerous trade of war their pastime and its details their re creation, were ready at their country's call to throw aside the pen, and seize the new practised rifle, prepared to stand or fall in defence of their hearths, their kindred, and their homes. • (Cheers.) All Europe respected our naval defences, and they would think none the less of our land defences if they found that 100,000 regulars andi,militia, backed by a swarm of riflemen, each of whom carried the lives of 60 invaders in his cartouch-box, to smite whom would be a labour of love. England was the most defensible country in the world. It was in tersected by hedges, ditches, and banks, every one of which was an entrenchment. The old idea. that a country should be surrounded by regular for tresses was exploded ; battles and not sieges de cided the fate of nations. An enemy could not ad vance in England ; artillery and cavalry could not quit the high roads, and the natural obstacles he had spoken of made the country easy to be defended by the rifle. The greatest loss at the recent battle of Montebello was in the defence of a farmhouse. liougoumont was the key to the position at Water loo ; in England every homestead would be a Hougoumont. The Duke of Wellington was asked what he would have done had he been driven from Waterloo. He said, " I should have retired into the forest of Soignies." " Where," then, if driven thence ?" "That," he replied " was impossible." Well, every covert in England would be a Soig , vies, from which no man in the world could drive English riflemen. (Cheers.) England was the best. adapted for rifle defence, therefore it was decided to raise volunteer corps. (Loud cheers.) The gallant captain then proceeded to deal locally with the subject, and said, hebelieved a volunteer corps could be clothed and equipped for £7 each man, and gave reasons why volun teers should be clothed in a uniform and made to assume a soldierlike appearance, inasmuch as they were to be a moral as well as a physical aid to the country, and cited the anecdote of the French hav ing landed at Fisgard in 1798, when Lord Cawdor lined the hedges in the vicinity with the female peasantry, who in that part of the country wore round hats and red cloaks, and, advancing upon the enemy, persuaded him to surrender to the small force of regulars at his disposal, pointing to the strong reserves for his support. "Of course," said the captain, " had not the old women worn the appearance of soldiers they could not have had a moral effect upon the enemy." (Laughter and cheers.) Resolutions were passed, that it was desirable to establish a rifle corps, and a committee was ap pointed to make arrangements, and receive sub scriptions to provide those persons with arms and accoutrements who have not the means of doing so themselves. The last resolution was, that the meet ing hoped that the principle of non-intervention hitherto observed by the Government would be rigidly carried out, believing that it was the duty ! and policy of England, during the present con- I tinental war, to observe the strictest neutrality.

(Signed by Colonel Allan and the whole of the • officers and passengers on board.) The Eastern Monarch was a ship of upwards of 1,500 tons register, belonging to Messrs. Somes, Brothers, of Blackwall, and nearly new, this being only her second voyage to India. Her cargo con sisted of saltpetre, linseed, ivory, and bones, &c. SOUTLIAMPTON, Friday.' By the arrival here of the screw steam ship Saxonia from Hamburg, which passed the burning vessel on her way to this port, intelligence was received of the burning of the Eastern Monarch at Spithead. The pilot on board the Saxonia, Mr. James Bowyer, was the first to render assistance to the ill-fated ship, and he and his colleagues were happily instrumental in saving a great number of lives. Bowyer was cruising off Spithead in his cutter the Fawn, accompanied by James Penny, another pilot belonging to Southampton, and two seamen named Joseph Newman and Joseph Diaper, on the look-out for the Saxonia. Between 2 and 3 o'clock this morning an explosion was heard by them, in the direction of which they proceeded, and on arriving within hail of the Eastern Monarch, which had brought up at Spithead a shbrt time previous, they were told that the ship was on fire, and a body of smoke was seen issuing from the quarterdeck.• At this time the ship was lying at anchor about half a mile from the shore, and near the Kicker Point. Bowyer, who has communicated these particOars, says that he immediately directed the pilot on board the Eastern Monarch to slip- her cable and run the ship ashore, but owing to the confusion which prevailed this was not attended to. Flames soon burst out from all parts of the vessel, and the scenes which followed are described as being of the most heart rending character. The soldiers were under the most perfect discipline and remained at the fore part of the ship, under the direction of their officers. The crew of the vessel were strenuou; in their exer tions to keep the fire under, but without effect, and the ship's boats were quickly lowered. Blue lights were burnt on board the Fawn for the purpose of attracting the attention of one - or two men of-war which were anchored near the spot, and a boat from the burning ship was despatched for assistance. Meanwhile ladies and children, almost in a state of nudity, leaped over the sides of the vessel and out of the portholes, many of whom it is- feared were drowned. A small boat belonging .to the Fawn went alongside the Eastern Monarch and commenced the work of rescue by taking as many of the unfortunate crea tures out as was possible, but such a large number pressed. into the boat that it was several times nearly swamped, and nothing but good manage ment onithe part of the pilots and their crews pre vented an accident of this kind from taking place. The boat made several trips from the burning ship to the cutter, each time laden with people, and many hung on to the sides of the boat, and were so dragged through the water and placed on board the Fawn. By these means the gallant little craft, although only of 36 tons, had on board 12 ladies, about 100 men, and several children. Among the ladies were the wives of the colonel and captain in command of the troops. By this time several boats had arrived from the men-of-war lying at Spit head, and also a number of mud barges which were passing the spot. The Fawn made her way to the nearest man•of-war, and transferred to her the people whom she had providentially rescued, several of whom were only covered by the sails of the boat, while the ladies were enveloped in the blankets belonging to the cutter and the coats of the pilots and seamen. A female and child were picked up, both of whom died, and the crew of the Fawn saw several persons sink whom they were unable to assist. Another Southampton pilot named Nichols, who happened to be near, was the means of saving several lives. As soon as a number of boats had congregated round the ship the soldiers received directions to save themselves, when, throwing away their knap sacks, they leaped overboard and swam to the boats. The colonel and captain of the troops and the captain of the ill-fated vessel were the last to leave the burning wreck. About four o'clock the masts went over the side and the ship was in a body of flame, which shot up ward to a great height, owing to a large quantity of saltpetre being on board. The pilot from Cowes, who brought the ship round the Isle of Wight, was much injured: Every one had left the ship, and she was fast succumbing to her fate by the time the Saxonia came up from Hamburg, and the humane work of saving life being completed, Bowyer took charge of the steamer and brought her to this port, leaving Penny and the two seamen to follow in the Fawn.

The Eastern Monarch left Kurrachee on the 22d of pia-following Allan, nificer of s a t n h d 4roe o F p e g b February r l d a last, r w G i t r h a on ; l et e e 81st Regiment, in command ; Capt. Molesworth, 27th Regiment, lady, and two children; Capt. Usher, 87th Foot, lady, and three children ; Capt. Manning, 24th Regiment ; and Capt. Stopford, of the 52d Regiment ; Lieuts. Clive, of 52d, and Gres ham, 27th Regiment; Quartermaster Neville, 70th Foot; and Assists SurgeOn Kidd, 27th Regiment, in medical charge ; 352 men, invalids from various regiments in the North-Western Provinces of India; 30 women, and 53 children. Fifteen deaths oc curred OR the passage home. Lieut.-Col. Muter, of the 60th Rifles, and lady ; Lieut. Whish, of the Bombay Artillery, also came passengers by the ship. She had light baffling winds down to the Line, touched at St. Helena, and after leaving the "trades" met with easterly winds. In consequence, the pro visions ran short, and Capt. Morris, the commander of the ship, decided upon calling at Spithead to obtain a supply of fresh meat and vegetables for the people on board, where the ship anchored at about 1.30 re.m. yesterday morning. The chief mate, Mr. Narracott, about an hour after the ship had brought up, was walking the poop, the crew being employed aloft furling the sails, and had just com pleted the topsails, and were about to commence furling the courses, when the explosion took place, blowing out the cuddy skylights on the poop, and carrying away the poop ladders. Inside the cuddy was a mass of ruin—decks torn up and bulkheads and glass shattered and mixed up in a thousand frag ments, the whole cuddy and decks being filled with a choking sulphurous vapour. Officers and ladies rushed on deck in their night dresses, the troops below leaping from their hammocks, and barely escaping the flames ; with such rapidity did these spread along the deck. The whole of the ship's ports being open for ventilation, the current of air, of course, urged them along in their fury. Captain Morris despatched a boat to the men-of-war at Spithead for assistance, and ordered the fire engine and pumps to be rigged to endeavour to subdue the fire, but by this time it was beyond human control. The boats (four) were lowered, and the ladies, women, and children were being passed over the side. The troops were paraded by Col. Allan's orders, and were under the most perfect command ; every man obeyed his orders most implicitly. By this time the boats from the men-of-war Falcon and Flying Fish were alongside, and the men low Bred themselves by ropes foom the fore part of the ship and bowsprit, the after part being a mass of flame. The remaining women and children were lowered down to the boats at the same time by those on board the ship. Every possible means seems to have been used for the saving of life, and as fast as the people were taken off th ship they were conveyed on board the Falcon and Flying Fish, and some small craft near at the time. Two ballast barges deserve particular attention. They bore down to the burning ship under canvas, and, by Capt. Niclrris's directions, dropped their anchors under the ship's bows to enable the boats to reach them quickly with their living freights from the ship. The barges, however, dropped so close to the vessel that num bers of men and women dropped on to their decks from the ship's bowsprit and bows, the fore put of the ship being clearest from fire. The conduct of the men in these barges (the Providence and the Petrel) is stated by the captain of the ship and the officers in command of the troops to have been be yond all praise. In half an hour from the time of the explosion every one that could be found was got out of the ship, and as the last boats left her sides the flaming masts fell by the board. At this time Mr. Smith, gunner of the Falcon, rendered essential service by his exertions in towing the two barges laden with people from the ship out of the way of the falling spars. Lieut. H. Bagge, of her Ma jesty's ship Falcon, was everywhere conspicuous by his exertions and judicious arrangements in saving lives ; and many others were equally zealous, but, from the excitement which prevailed, were not per haps equally noted. The after part of the troop deck felt the greatest effect of the explosion. The women and children were berthed in this part of the ship, and here occurred almost the only loss of life, one woman and five children being killed or suffocated by the explosion. This, with one soldier, who died soon after reaching the shore of exhaus tion from being in the water, and one child, is, ste believe, the only loss of life ; a large number have received contusions and burns. The pilot is missing, but whether he has_ got ashore at Ryde, as he be longs to the Isle of Wight, is not yet known. The whole of the officers, ladies, men, women, and chil dren who were landed at Portsmouth from the un fortunate vessel were, of course, in the state they jumped out of their beds in—ladies and women in their night clothes, officers and men in a pair of trousers and shirt; and many of the men withont the latter—all, of course, without shoes or stock ings. The officers, both those belonging to the ship and the military, have lost their property, which Amounts with many of the latter to somethipg con siderable. Col. Allan speaks in the highest terms of the conduct of the men nnder his command, and says of his own officers and Capt. Morris and the officers of ,the ship, " nothing could exceed their coolness, spirit, and gallantry." The troops, women, and children have been quar tered in the variousisarraeks and hospitals in the town, where their wants have been supplied by the authorities. At the hotels, and in many cases in the private dwellings of the inhabitants, every one seemed to vie with the other in rendering the promptest assistance to the sufferers as they landed, The Quebec, was literally crammed in a very short time, and coffee,brandy, &c., served out ad libitum. The appearance of the burning ship from Ports mouth ramparts and the beach from about 3 until 6 a.m. was magnificent in the extreme. The excitement among the crowd assembled was intense, as with a glass - human beings could be discerned jumping from the ship's sides into the sea, from which, of course, they were picked up by the boats. After the whole of the people had been taken out of the ship, the Falcon stood towards her, and fired several shot into her to endeavour to sink her, but without effect. The hull of the ship continued burning fiercely until about midday, when the greater body of the flames was subdued, but immense bodie3 of smoke continued to ascend from the ship. About 9 a.m. a body of flame burst out from the after part of the ship, reaching to an immense height in the air. A dense smoke now (6 p.m.) hangs over the remains of the burnt ship. Several Government steamers have been in attendance by her the whole day. The following letter has been addressed to Captain Morris by the military officers in charge of the troops : • "Portsmouth, Junk 3. "Sir—The officer commanding the invalids, the officers under his command, and the passengers who arrived this morning at Portsmouth by th e ship E Kurmchee, cannot t a k e l eave o f you w i thout express i ng Eastern Monarch, from the deep sympathy they all feel for you on the frightful loss of your ship which occurred at Spithead when at anchor. This has been generated by the invariable kindness and attention to them on the voyage, and the gallant efforts made by you to says life when the ship was so suddenly destroyed by fire this morning at Spithead. They all feel deeply grateful, and it must be some satisfaction to you to know that no human forethought could have prevented this sad calamity, and they desire to e x p ress thi s in as public a manner as possible.

I myself do not expect so much from `. vol un_ teer companies as some people do; for, at. ';er all. volunteer corps are not always under the ver . y I , e ,' of discipline, as past experience has shown us, n nf i , when hard pressed with exercise and training,. tr ivp . get disgusted. at the task. Volunteer compass les; must give great attention to their training bef Ina► they can expect to be available for the defence or their different localities. I must say that as far as; the Government have gone, they have done little. or nothing for the promotion of these companies.. All they have done is to permit us, under the Vo- • lunteer Act, to arm and drill and form ourselves 1 into companies, which proceeding, without the per-, mission of the Crown and of the Government, would! have been illegal. But by the supplying of arms , by the finding of instructors to instruct the volu7 l _ teers in the use of their arms, by providing prac tice-ground, by providing targets, and by provithng ammunition, all the expenses are thrown on the volunteers themselves. I think that if this move men is really to turn out anything at all, some step must be taken by the Government in the direction of, at all events, finding the arms that are to be put into the bands of the volunteers. (Hear, hear.) It is evident, from the Circular as issued on the . 28th of May, that what ever volunteer corps are formed, from Land's End to John' o'Groat's house, they should be armed with the same description of arm, and the object of that is, , that they may be able at once to use the ammunition made up in .the Government manufactories and issued from the Government stores. Lord Panmure then proceeded to refer to, the propriety of forming volunteer corps in the towns and districts, and giving to each corps the choice of their commanding officer, who, if approved by the Lord-Lieutenant, should on his responsi bility be recommended to the Crown ; and to the necessity of a strict adherence to the rules of mili tary discipline by the volunteer corps ; and, with regard to the me and preservation of arms , h e sa id —" 1 am inclined to think that in every volunteer corps every volunteer should be intrusted with the responsibility of keeping his own arms ; that he should take his arms home with him; that he should be subject to a visitation by his officer at any time to see that they were in a proper condition; and when he comes to the field, there, and there alone, he should use tha t arm with ammunition furnished to him for that occasion. He should not be allowed to use that arm at his own free will when he is not on the practising ground and under the eye of the officer that is commanding him." At the conclusion of his Lordship's address a large number of gentlemen agreed to aid in the formation of a corps for the district. BRECON. A meeting, numerously attended, and presided over by thlayor, has been held at the Town •hall. Resolutions were carried to the effect that steps for the formation of a rifle corps should be immediately taken, and that public meetings should be called throughout the county, a committee being formed to carry these revolutions into effect. DEVONSHIRE. In addition to the meetings held at Torquay, Exeter, Plymouth, and Devonport, several influen tial- landowners in the county have determined to aid in forming a rifle battalion, and there is every probability that one commensurate with the size and importance of Devonshire will be speedily raised. A jiublic meeting was held at the Assembly-rooms, Teigumouth, on Saturday evening, for the purpose of promoting the augmentation of the rifle company established in that town, in connexion with the South Devon battalion. Sir W. Hele Tonkin pre sided. Resolutions were adopted cordially approv ing the principle of a volunteer corps, and pledging the meeting to use every exertion to carry out its more efficient establishment at Teignmouth, by raising both men and funds. HARROGATE. A public meeting, in compliance with an influen tial requisition was held at the Town-hall, Harro gate, on Tuesday last, "for. the purpose of consider ing the propriety of _forming a rifle corps for Harrogate." Mr. J, S. Harrison, a justice of the peace, was in the chair. On the motion of Dr. KENNION, seconded by Dr. PIGOTT, it was unanimously resolved.—" That it is desirable to form a rifle corps for Harrogate." _ _ On the motion of Mr. S. POWELL, seconded by Mr. I. T. SuuTT, a committee of seven persons, with power to add to their number, was appointed to carry out the formation of the corps. HEREFORD. A movement has been initiated in this county for the formation of a volunteer rifle corps for the city and county, and the Lord-Lieutenant of the county (Lord Bateman) has been in communication with the War-office on the subject. This being almost purely an ag►ricultura . l county, there is some hesitation in offering such a seductive inducement to the men to renounce their rustic occupations as would be presented by the formation of a rifle corps, for martial feeling runs high here. It is therefore contemplated to shelve the project until after the,hay harvest. In the meantime the subject will be fully discussed by the deputy lieutenants, who will take the necessary steps pre liminary to calling a public meeting at the Shire hall, Hereford. LICHFIELD. A public meeting meeting has 'been held here, the Mayor in► the chair. Mr. JOHNSON moved a resolution expressive of the meeting's approval of the formation of a volun teer rifle corps. Capt. DYOTT, in seconding the resolution, said that in looking over some papers connected with the old volunteers of 1793, 1798, and 1804, when the city of Lichfield raised a considerable force, he found it had been carried out in a popular manner and the rules showed that each company or bat talion governed itself. He thought the present force ought to be a popular one, and the Government could not do better than follow the old course. A committee was appointed, and a vote of thanks to the Mayor closed the proceedings. MANCHESTER. t er held To yw Town hall, s -- in Mayors favour parlour,o f a r m corps an wa s Manchester hes t e r A d a m y e i e n t i t n h g e hall, at which Mr. Mackie, the Mayor, ' presided, and a number of influential gentl e m en were presen t. Mr. W. R. WOOD (Deputy-Lieutenant of th e county) moved a resolution in favour of forming volunteer rifle corps, and looked upon them as form ing a valuable addition to our national defences. Mr. E. W.HEYWOOD seconded the moti • on, which was adopted unanimously. Capt. PEEL moved the formation of a brigade of 1,500 men for Manchester. Mr. R. H. GREG seconded the motion, which was agreed to. Mr. R. CHADWICK moved that a subscription be entered into to purchase arms and clothing for those unable to raise the means. He thought, if Manchester and Liverpool could each raise 1,500 men, and the county 2,000, making together 5,000 men, we should do very well for this district ; and he was sure that if her Majesty ever saw them in the field she might with safety say with her Royal grandfather that Lancashire was the most loyal county in England. (Mar, hear.) The Manchester corps might be divided intg three battalions of 500 each. In conclusion, he sai‘ he had given one £5O, and he now placed in The hands of the Mayor a cheque for £lOO towards raising the necessary funds. (A resolution was car ried appointing an executive committee to carry out the preceding resolutions; and a vote of thanks to the Mayor for presiding c•mcluded the s meeting.) p It was announced that Messrs, J. a nd N.
