The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear- 1 ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Manhood, and premolar , decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being. b e-u• titled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and wilm wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

Yesterday morning a party of sick and disabled troops belonging to the 65th Regiment were medically inspected at Fort Pitt, Chatham, having arrived from New Zealand in the Westmin ster, which landed them at Gravesenil the pre vious day. The invalid troops, to the number of 16 non-commissioned officers and men, with 3 women and 7 children, sailed from 'Wellington on the 19th August, the passage to Gravesend lasting 103 days. During the voyage no deaths occurred on board. Colonel J. Patience and Captain J. 0. J. Priestly, 65th Regiment, came home in the Westminster on two years' leave of absence. A number of the inva lids who have been sent home are suffering from ophthalmia. The 65th Regiment has been in New Zealand 12 years, during which time the mortality among the officers has been very great. The regi ment has been generally healthy. After the inva lids had been inspected those requiring , surg ical t r eatment were admitted into hospital , and th re mainder sent to the invalid establishment at St. Mary's, to await their discharge from the service. The invalid troops belonging to the 59th Regiment, who recently arrived from Hong Kong in the Northfleet, were also medically inspected at Fort Pitt yesterday. The invalids, to the number of 120 men, consisting of seamen and troops, left Hong Kong on the 22d July, the naval invalids being in charge of Mr. JJt. Pittock, -employed in the trans port service of the Royal Navy, and the military under the command of Capt. W. J. Stuart, Royal Engineers, and in medical charge of Surgeon R.

On the 13th of November Viscount Bury,.M.P., was entertained at a "complimentary dinner, in the Rossin House, Toronto, by a large party of the leading - citizens, who were desirous of showing their appreciation of the attention the noble lord has paid to Canadian interests in his place in the Imperial Parliament and otherwise. Upwards of a hundred gentlemen sat down to dinner, at half-past seven: The Mayor, Mr. Reed, oecupied the chair, having the guest of the evening Bury—on his right, and Sir Allan N. Macnab,.Bart., on his left. The vise-chairs were filled by the two members for the tit'—Hon. Geo. Brown and J.. Robinson, Esq. Among the other gentlemen-;•likesent were: - Hon.- G. W. Allen, M.L.C., Hon. Geo. Boulton, M.L.C., Hon. 0. Mowat, M.P.P:, Hon. W. Carley, 1 1 / 4 1:1?:1 3 ., Hon. L. T. Drummond, M.P.P., - Hon. J. H. Cameron, W. McD. Dawson, Esq., M.P.P., Thos.

James Smith, Mr. Sheriff Jarvis, G. H. Mills,. Esq., Mayor of Hamilton, 8.7 e. _ - Lady Bury, accompanied by a number of other ladies entered the hall after dinner, and were con ducted to seats adjoining the chairman's table. The usual loyal toasts were drunk. In proposing the health of the Governor-General, The CHAIRMAN said he was specially charged to state that no person. looked with greater satisfac tion than his Excellency on the prospect of future usefulness to the colonies, and Canada in particular, which is held out by the talents of Lord Bury, as shown in the British Parliament. (Cheers) In returning thanks after his health had been drunk, Lord BURY, on rising, was warmly cheered. He said—Gentlemen, I - feel that lin no degree deserve this reception. But in - this one respect I will take credit to myself that, having enjoyed opportunities of seeing every phase of Canadian society, and almost every description of Canadian wants, I have not failed in the duty incumbent on me as a citizen of our great empire, the duty of expounding to those who were less fortunate than myself the knowledge which I had thus acquired. On all oc casions when it was fitting and proper to do so, I hope that my voice has been raised in advocacy of everything , which might do good to Canada. (Cheers.) You will allow me to 'say one word about the reason of my presence in Canada at this mo ment. I have seen statements copied from the English papers and reprinted in Canada, that I am here on a political mission, and the object of that mission is even stated, that , it is to feel the pulse of the colonies with a regard to a federal union of the provices. I think it only due to myself to say that there is no foundation for that report. lam here in no political capacity whatever. Certainly a great deal of curosity has been experienced in Eng land as to what would be the feelings of the Cana dian people with regard to that federal union ; and it is, perhaps, natural that that curiosity should have arisen at this moment, inasmuch as the subject of a federal union formed part of a recent address to the Throne. I have no doubt that Ministers in England participate, as all engaged in public affairs in England must do, in that feeling of curosity ; and as I happen to be on very good terms with many of the Ministry, 'I shall not scruple on my return home to communicate to them anything I may observe as to what is the feeling of Canada on that subject. (Hear, hear.) Geirtiemen, I must say that the progress of Canada, which I thought I fully understood when I was here before, struck me afresh on my return to this country. I confess I look upon the rapid growth of your towns and the development of your institutions with as much as tonishment as ever. The condition of your social position is progress, and I conceive the duty of English statesmen is to see in what way they can hasten that progress, and whether they can smooth down any of the obstacles which now lie in your path. It strikes me you want three things prin cipally. You want more rapid means of communi cation to every part of your country, in order that the farmer may bring his produce to market, and that the whole country may be fully and equally developed. Then you want the bone and sinew which shall make these means of transport valu able—you want an organised system of emigration. Lastly, and here the Englishman can help you— you want, I will not say to be drawn closer to the English heart, for you arc close enough there already, but some means of annihilating, so far as practicable,, the distance between this country and the mother country. We are all loyal to the same Queen, we are subject to the same laws, we are go verned by the same institutions, and what we chiefly want is to be what the French call rap proches. With regard to the providing quick com munication, I have thought it my duty to become connected with several undertakings which have that great object in view. I am connected first with a company which is to shorten the steamboat journey across the sea from one continent to the other, and it was my good fortune when in St. John's, Newfoundland, the other day, to sign a contract on behalf of that company for the mails to be carried between Newfoundland and Galway. By means of our steamers we have already on several occasions communicated between Washing ton and St. Petersburg within six days. (Cheers.) As the Atlantic ,Telegraph is not yet an accom plished fact, I think these steamers are the next best thing. Their terminus is at present placed in New York, but I have powers from the direc tors to endeavour to enlist the sympathies of Canada in the project, and if we succeed in so en listing the sympathies of Canada, we are prepared to bring a weekly line to Quebec. (Loud cheers.) The only thing wanting to-do that is money, and on the money point, of course full discussion must take place. Well, the enterprises with which I am connected do not stop here. Arrived on the shores of the new world, I hope to see provision made for a communication with the interior, and that a rail way will be constructed • between Halifax and Quebec. I am also the• bearer of full powers to treat and to conclude with Canada and the other provinces the terms upon which this railroad can be carried out: It seems `to me that this is a pro. ject which is very important to Canals, inasmuch as access to the sea-board through British territory can never be matter of indifference either to Canada or to the mother country, and, as in its political features and general character it must be con sidered an imperial measure, I think I am autho rised in believing that, if we can bring about an understanding with the provinces, we shall have very little' difficulty in establishing a good under standing on the subject with the mother country. I have been present when deputations waited upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer and upon the Colonial Minister on is subject, and both of those gentlemen expressed - Themselves in as warm terms as their position , would allow them, and as official reserve would permit, in favour of our scheme, but they deferred giving a definite answer till some de finite statement. had been brought them from the colonies. Gentlemen, it is part of my business here to obtain, if possible, that statement. A rail road on very reasonable terms will be offered you, and if those reasonable terms are accepted you will in a very short time see a railroad from here to the Atlantic. (Cheers.) I think A is impossible for any man to look with prophetic eyes on the map and on the physical and natural features of the country without seeing that Canada must eventually become the great carrying power of the world. (Cheers.) Your great highway of the St. Lawrence, your chain of m agn ifi cen t lakes, connected by . canals of gigantic magnitude, and the chain of rivers and lakes running west from Lake Winnipeg almost to the foot of the Rocky Mountains—you cannot look at these natural features, so easily adaptable as means of communication, without seeing that through those plains of the Saskatchewan must be carried the great Pacific railroad, and that through that gap in the Rocky Mountains at the head of the waters of the Saskatchewan that rail road must pass to the western ocean--that, as I once said in a pamphlet to Which the Mayor has done me the honour to allude, it is no visionary's , dre4ln thg in the present generation men will see a railroad, a ship canal, and a telegraph between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans on British terri tory. (Loud cheers.) I must now advert to that other requisite which I said was necessary for the full development of Canadian progress, that rap ' prochement—for I do not find a corresponding; English word—of which I spoke: We have heard the theory advanced that the provinces should be represented in the Imperial Parliament. I was reading the other day a pamphlet by Mr. Hinek s , in which he makes an observation which I cannot but think a true one. He says, before the Ameri can colonies separated from the mother country, the, cry was that taxation without representation is tyranny, and he says, if the colonies were repre sented in the Imperial Parliament, as now, with out participating. in the taxes which the Imperial Parliament is called upon to administer, such re presentation without taxation, to reverse the adage, would be tyranny. But there is a mode of repre sentation which would not be open to this objection. It has been much canvassed in England whether in any reform bill which may be brought forward, the question of life peerages should not take a prominent place, and it seems to me that the House of Lords, which has nothing to do with voting away public mone'r, but which yet enjoys a large share of the reverence of the country as a time-hon oured institution, would be the best place in which our colonial senators could be placed—that gentle men from the colonies who have rendered themselves conspicuous among their fellow - citizens, in politics or in other ways, should have conferred upon them life peerages which would make them members of the British parliament, though not in a position to vote on the disposition of those taxes, to which Canadians do not contribute. Perhaps, gentlemen, this is a new idea, and one which may not commend itself at once to your minds, but you will see that Many advantages would result from it. One would be that Canadians would have resident at home, in London, gentlemen who, like ambassadors from foreign states, would be able to vouch for the status and position of those . gentlemen who may visit England from the colonies. I have often heard that gentlemen from Canada have considered themselves not very warmly received in England—not in such a manner as their position in the colonies entitled them to. If a gentleman, however estimable, comes from Canada, and is not known in English society, he cannot complain that that society does not at once open its doors to him. But if a person was on• the spot, who could say so and so is the position of the gentleman you see before you, and vouch for his social position, that gentleman would find as good an entree as any one else into English society. I hope I have myself done and shall always do what lies in my power in this matter; but I and men like me who have experienced kindness on this side of the Atlantic, are not in a position to do those acts of kindness, or of justice rather, in the way in which a man in the position of a life peer of a parliament sent there by the colonists, and recognised by the hOme government as a representative of the colo nists, would be enabled to do. It seems to me that you want some one in that position, either an am bassador, or call him what you will, who. shall re present Canadian interests at the court of St. James's. I feel I have detained you too long. And I shall close by reiterating to you the grateful thanks which would like to put in more fitting words for the noble hospitality which you have shown me to-day. (Loud cheers.) UNIFORM WEIGHT FOR THE SALE OF GRAIN. A meeting of persons connected with the corn trade was held at the Liverpool Corn Exchange, yesterday," to consider the adoption of one uniform weight of 1001bs. for the sale of grain, flour, meal ; and to make arrangements for carrying the same into effect." Mr. HUBBACK, of Liverpool, presided. He first ; alluded to a meeting which was held at the Liver- I pool Corn Exchange in September last, at which a report of the sub-committee of the Liverpool Corn Association was agreed to, pointing out the incon veniences of the present corn standards, and a re solution adopted in favour of a uniform standard of 1001bs. in weight. The report and resolution were circulated with a view to obtain the opinion and sanction of the trade generally, and the present meeting was called in order to decide what future action should be pursued.. For many years past the - diversity- of the modes of selling corn and flour had attracted general attention, and many efforts had been made to bring about uniformity. The necessity for a change was admitted by all, and the present system was a disgrace to - the age. (Cheers.) It was most puzzling even for an initiated person like himself, looking over the newspaper reports of the country markets, to calculate which was the dearest and which was the cheapest. Having de scribed the three different modes by which corn was sold in this country—first by measure alone, second by weight alone, and third by measure which must contain, or be made up to, a specified weight—the chairman said that these three modes varied considerably in different markets. Thus, the sales at London and many other places were per qr. of 8 imperial bushels; at Sheffreld and Don caster, per load of 3 imperial bushels ; Ulverstone per load of 144 qrs. ; and at Newcastle, Plymouth, Berwick, Carlisle, and other places, per boll, vary ing from 2 to 6 imperial bushels. The sales by weight also varied from the bushel of 621bs. at Bir mingham, and 70 at Liverpool and Manchester to the win dle of 2201bs at Preston, and the hobbett, 1681bs. at Denbigh. The standard of measure had certain advantages—for instance, the statistics of imports, averages, commutation of tithes, and many corn rates and freights were calculated by measure—but there were very great objections against the system, the most important of these being the uncertainty, so much depending upon the skill and integrity of the meter. (Hear.) The farmers were the greatest sufferers by the measure standard. There were also frequent disputes under the present system between merchants and shipowners, and with. the Custom house. 'With regard to the statistics of imports, and the other matters he had mentioned, the chair man suggested that in the event of a standard of weight being adopted, all that would be required would be by act of Parliament to state the weight, per imperial bushel, and all the difficulty disap peared. It was not absolutely necessary (the chair man contended) to retain measure for the purpose of maintaining a proper test of quality. He further stated, that though many members of the corn trade disapproved of the 1001bs. standard, the members of the Liverpool Corn Association had become unanimously in favour it. It was an approximation to the decimal system, a system whose general adption was but a question of time. Having argued that half a loaf, in regard to reform, was better than none, Mr. Hubback said that there never was a better time than the present to introduce the particular reform which he advocated. It was not necessary to carry it out by act of Parliament, and if a few large towns, such as Liverpool, Manchester, and Glasgow, adopted it, otheri would follow. • The SECRETARY (Mr. H. W. Banner ) then read communications from Mr. W. Jackson, M.P., apolo gising fe,. absence ; from the Leith Chamber of Commerce, from a meeting of corn merchants at Londonderry, and from others at Belfast and Tralee, approving of the 1001bs. standard. Mr. BROWN, M.P., read a communication which he had just received, describing the interview which a deputation of the Decimal Association held the other day with Mr. Disraeli, who most cordially entertained their proposals, and particularly pro- posed a standard of 1001bs. Mr. H. SEGAR, of Liverpool, then moved a reso lution to the effect that the existing variety in the weights and measures for the sale of corn, &c., formed a serious obstruction to business, and were wholly inconsistent with the spirit of the times. Mr. BROCHNER, of Hull, seconded the resolution. . Mr. TORR, of the Liverpool Chamber of Com_ merce, supported the resolution, weich was carried unanimously. Mr. BLAIR, of Liverpool, moved the second reso lution, to the effect that the substitution of an uni form weight of 100 lbs. was approved by the meeting. Mr. LowE, of Glasgow, seconded the resolution. Mr. OSBORNE, of Cork, moved an amendment that a deputation be appointed to wait upon the Board of Trade to explain the practical difficulties of the corn trade arising from the variety of weights and measures, and endeavour to obtain an assimilation of the imperial bushel to the actual weight. Mr. Brown, M.P., Mr. Gladstone, and Mr. Gian nacopulo, Greek Consul at Liverpool, supported the resolution, and Mr. R. Woodward the amendment. Upon a division the original motion was carried almost unanimously. Mr. REID moved, and Mr. EWING, of Glasgow, seconded, a third resolution, recommending to the trade in Liverpool and elsewhere, that after the Ist of February next the weight of 1001bs. avoirdupois be adopted in all sales of flour, grain, and meal. Mr. /I- - C. CHAPMAN, of Live 001, drew atten tion is the fact that 100 . 1bs.'h rp ad been already adopted in Canada, where also the decimal system of coina,ge had been recently introduced. gr.

This day seven years life in Paris was held up to the observation of the world in that broad revolu tionary light which illustrates the social condition of the hour to all future generations. The anniver sary reminds us of the ominous sights and sounds which smote or chilled the hearts of French citizens some years since, making men ask whether it was not a troubled dream, and how long it would be before the waking. The seven years are gone, and the troubled dream drags on, like the nightmare oppression, which seems to stretch out a pang of a thousand years' duration. In the President's Mes sage, of the 4th Nov. 1851, the usual topics were found—Socialism, the stifling of it, poverty, embar- rassment, a state of siege here and there, and pro posals for great public works, which should yield on; n r o ; fits but that accompanied avmi l create h yet s i g r, r n e j a fi t e e a r n w t works s ; demand and s for o the Mstitutiou, oft iTP-T:s9l44jln'et which. meant a coalition between the ru ler ai fled for politicalaction against the French nation, as recognised in the world and in history. Dark as were the forebodings excited by this message. and by the change of Ministry, and by the courting of the soldiery, even the experienced people of Paris were taken by surprise when,, at dawn, this day seven years, the walls of Paris were seen to be placarded with the revolutionary decree of a Dicta tor who presently called himself Emperor. We need not dwell on the incidents of that day and the two which succeeded it. The relatives of the innocent persons slain by hundreds will write the story hereafter, and the memory of it will not die meantime. The smoke, the blood, and even the broken laws of the day might have been forgiven, in consideration - of the promise of order, stability ; and security, but for two circumstances—the indig nities cast upon the legislators of the Republic, and the acts and demeanour of the soldiery. These for-. bade hope to many ; but a multitude of gay-hearted Frenchmen were disposed to hope that the promised results would arrive ; and when they had once ob tained order and -security for a basis, they could erect upon them any structure of political institu tions that might seem good to the nation. If they had been asked whether they were Willing to wait seven years before beginning the construction of their liberties, would it have damped their spirits ? If told that in seven years they would be living under a despotism without parallel in modern his tory, would they have used their last moments of possible concert in modifying the experiment ? or would they have let it proceed on the responsibility of one man ? Glad as we all are to dismiss ques tions of this kind when they carry pain in them, ready as we all are to comfort ourselves with the truism that what is done cannot be helped—there must be multitudes of Frenchmen who cannot, as the years go round, see the 2d of December dawn without some self-questioning as this. It may be useless to harp upon such questions now, but it must be right and advantageous, as each anniversary of the coup d'etat comes round, to compare French life as it is with what it was promised to be ; and there can be no doubt that this kind of comparison is going oa in every house in Paris, and in every provincial town where anybody but the Court and its followers are living. It is true . there will be no sign. Men must now understand one another without it. The police will pry and listen in vain : such political comparisons are not drawn in the streets, nor placarded on the houses, like the Emperor's avowals of usurpation. But this is the business on which the intellect and heart of France are busy to-day. What is it, in fact, that the coup d'etat has given to Frenchmen, in the place of that once proud and gay existence which we all remember, not so many years ago ? - TECnon-politieitl inhabitanis feel the pressure of politics in a way which seems to them very hard. The old smoothness, regularity, and ease of trade and daily life seem to be gone. Trade is is bad ; credit is impaired ; and there is an amount of hopeless destitution in by-places which weighs upon all social transactions. Bread and meat do not bear their natural price, for decrees have med dled with the cutting up of ox, and the bakers' stocks of flour. House rent is worse • than food for dearness ; and it is owing to the great public works which are the resorce of despots when they have as unmanageable poor on their hands. The children of the household have to be taught not to ask ques tions, becouse the servants are not to be trusted. Everything of interest is reserved to be told when children and servants are in bed • and then only after looking into the ante-chamber, to see that nobody , is listening. It is imprudent to make re marks in the street, and absurd to make sure of answers to letters. Such are the inconveniences of insignificant people, seven years after the coup d'etat. As for the sort of people that the ruler spends more thoughts on,—they have the same experience, with some additions. There are few families in France who could not tell of more or fewer exiles, within their circle of acquaintance; and the nobler the hearts of those left in their homes, the more they suffer on account of the deported. No one will ven ture to saw how largely images of Cayenne swamps, and Algerian deserts, and fever and fetters, hunger and the hulks, have entered into the scenery of Frenchmen's minds since the coup d'etat. Be sides the victims carried away, without notice, without trial, without even a knowledge of their imputed offence, their are their families at home—families hunger-struck, despair ing for the most part, but now and then tempted to hope for a moment when the brooding thunder-cloud has discharged a peal, and before it lowers again blacker than ever. Frenchmen cannot in these days open the liberal hand to all. They are appealed to on behalf of the poor, but the poor whom they may help are those who have no deported relatives. There are always some who will find means to an swer every known need; and it is well known in Paris that more or less relief does reach the gaunt children of fathers whohave disappeared from the shop or the office, or their walk" homewards in the evening ; but it is not by the hands of neighbours and fellow-citizens that the aid may arrive. Be sides the expense, the restraint, and the embarrass ment of life in the new Paris of our time, there is the dismal novelty of its nothingness. Under the first Empire there was interest and activity of some sort, by which the mind was exercised and the heart kept alive. Breezes or blasts came from all points of the compass in turn to keep men's lungs going, but the new doctrine of stagnation creates a new position. Not only is the atmosphere to be made stagnant, it is even to be exhausted, and in the seven years the process has gone so far that the whole world is asking how much further the ope rator means to carry it. Nobody believes that the catastrophe will be national extinction, and the commonest supposition is that Frenchmen can learn to live in a very thin air. Time will show , this. But, however strong the 'vitality may . be, health is another matter; and health was promised with the coup d'etat. The symptoms are not pro mising. It is of no use telling. me n that they ought to be happy with the toys of life when its substan tial concerns are obliterated. Literature is expunged when liberty is deposed ; science cannot travel without a passport ; art degenerates. What is there in the whole round of amusements that can compensate for privations like these? Msreover, ma terial prosperity is hinderedby what ever enfeebles society, and intellectual andspiritnal elevation is impaired by whatever insults, disturbs, and disheartens the mind and soul of man. Where truth cannot be spoken, and falsehood thrives ; where literature is dogged by the police, and philosophy is dispersed by ill names ; where saints and sages turn hermits, from being apostles, and buffoons and showmen fill the stage of life with their hobby-horses, it seems scarcely the time to look for the uprising of new structures of political welfare from the basis of order and security pro fessedly laid this day seven years. While looking for what is promised the dues or victims of the coup d'etat see many a sad sight among the way: farers—many a funereal republican train—many a conclave of able men who meet and part in silence —many a group of young people who from being the grace of their time are just becoming its fops, if not its blacklegs ; but amidst the varying crowd their compassion rests, not only on. waiting Legiti mists, or on indignant Orleanists, but on the inno cent child who is nursed in a regilize which must, in one way or another, be totally changed before his prospects tau be fulfilled. lo see the Prince The following letter has been addressed to a con• temporary : Sir,—Will the " Archaeologist" who complains of Mr. Scott's design being adopted, and " the noble men and professional gentlemen, of whose compe tency (to award the prizes) there could be no doubt being so cavalierly treated," by their selection being overruled, be so good as to inform us why any human being should have the smallest confidence in the architectural judgment of that commission ? He does not appear lo know that the only ',pro fessional" architect on the commission, Mr. Burn, one of the most eminent professors of domestic ar chitecture, and the two other architectural " ;asses sors," whose opinions Lord Stanhope and the non professional gentlemen refused to record or receive, all agreed, and agreed independently, in giving only the sixth place to the design which the his torian, the painting gentlemen, and the engineer put first. He apparently thinks also, that it ought to go for nothing that Mr. Scott was only precluded by a ridiculous and arbitrary rule of these judges, dis approved also . by Mr. Burn, from being placed second in the prize lists for both buildings. They seem to have thought their business was to distri bute the £5,000 of prize money as widely as pos sible, instead of enabling the public to judge as ac curately as possible of the capacity of the several architects ; and as the Saturday Renew says, the candidate Nilo is second in two competitions is ob viously superior to him who is only first in one-, unless he is facillime princepi — OirCh was not con tended in favour of either of the first prizemen. If the "Archaeologist" can find any bit of evidence before Mr. Hope's committee in support of the Westminster-hall judgment, except the fact that it was given' by . exactly the non-professional majority of the acting judges and assessors, by all means let him make the most of it. But it is a little too late, after, Mr. Hope and Sir B. Hall have extracted alt the secret history of the adjudication, to attempt to, settle the question by saying that three or four noblemen and gentlemen, who know no more about the matter than anybody else, have taken a. great deal e trouble in awarding the premiums, and that nobody ought now to question. their judgment. As to the relative merits of the competing styles, I think we may take for granted that the Renais sance style had everything said and done for it that could be done in the committee, both by the, archi tects who advocated it and by the architect of one of the most successful buildings in that style, who was a member of the committee, and put some very clever questions in support of it, which were not less cleverly answered. I can hardly think you mean , to, open your columns to that interminable controversy, which alWays leaves the matter,juit where it began; viz., that some persons prefi r Italian and others Gothic as a mere question of taste, and therefore the arguments by which they defend either never convince anybody who has a. preference of his own to start with. It is, however, important to bear in mind that I the committee reported that, in all the practical points, on which superiority had been claimed for the Renaissance style, such as convenience of arrangement, lighting, ventilation, and expense.. neither style appeared to have any real advantage over the other. I should go further in opposition to the common prejudice. After having had the principal management of the building of Mr.. Scott's two new churches at Doncaster, the smaller of which has a length and an available area equal to the longest and the largest of the Marylebone churches, and the other is, of course, far larger, I am convinced that a greater architectural effect can be obtained at less cost in a Gothic building, of the most real and massive construction, than in any Italian one. . . As to the particular design, nobody supposes, or ever supposed, that it is to be executed - without alteration. Nothing could be more absurd (and so it was admitted in the committee) than to pre clude the architect of the best design in a competi tion from making it better if he can. I confess I think the recent rage for the mongrel Gothic of the south,in preference to the English and French Gothic, a very mischievous delusion, for which I suPpose Mr. Ruskin is mainly responsible, as he is for that still more mischievous one, that architec ture consists in ornamentation—a doctrine sure to be in high favour with the architects, to whom it is a good deal easier to lay on ornament wholesale than to design buildings of which the whole and. the parts are in such proportions as to be satisfac tory and beautiful, as most old ones are, either with or without such ornamentation. If this is what the " Archteologist" means by condemning the Lombardic" character of Mr> Scott's design (for the proper meaning of which word, however, I re commend him to consult some rudimentary book on architecture), I agree with him. But that is a small matter ; and though I should lop off both that and some other extravagances (as I think them) of the exhibited design, I should have con sidered it a lasting calamity to the architecture of England if any other had bean selected by the architectural judges and the Government —Yours obediently, 42, Queen Anne-street, Dec. 1.

FAIL WAY INTELLIGENCE. ♦ The Manchester Guardian gives the following as the principal points of the settlement between the London and North-Western, the Great Northern, and the Sheffield Companies, and adds that pro vision has been made for referring to arbitration any case of doubt that may arise in working it out. It would be interesting to know how much might have been saved to the shareholders of each line if such an agreement had been adopted in the first instance instead of after many months of reckless and discreditable warfare : "Through booking arrangements for goods and passengers to be established between the three companies, with amicable arrangements as to agencies, &c., in the principal towns. " The fare between Manchester and London to be (as announced at London-road Station yesterday) 335. first-class, and 245. second ; the third-class being 15s. Bd., as previously. Speaking generally we believe that these through fares will apply t most of the other towns involved in the late d; pute ; but from Liverpool they will be about higher : Goods rates will be generally inerci to a slight extent. • " The agreement known as 'the triple agrecmen. which did not affect, so far as the late dispute was concerned, the Great Northern Company, and which mainly had for its object the establishment of rates between Liverpool and Manchester and the Midland and Eastern Counties districtg, to be re-established as from the date of the dispute,—viz., the Ist of August, 1857. The Sheffield Company to be restored to their original position at the London-road Station, in volving the employment of their own clerks and servants for the conduct of their business in the booking and other offices ; the latter portion taking effect, we believe, this (Wednesday) morning. " A new passenger station to be built at London. road—or, as we hear from various Aources, the ex isting station to be essentially reconstructed and enlarged—according to plans said to be already preliminarily settled ; the necessary Act of Parlia ment to be applied for to vest such station in such a way and upon such terms as it is believed will avoid all possibility of future .unpleasantness. " The companies to retire from the Chancery suit arising out of the dispute, and from all legal proceedings between the parties ; each paying their own costs. " A joint committee to be appointed for carrying out and conducting all the arrangements." THE INUNDATION OF THE CAE COLLIERY.—Our readers have been informed that a dreaeful accident oc curred in the Cae Pit, Llanelly, Carmarthenshire, on the 3d inst., whereby ten poor fellows lost their lives. After nearly three weeks' pumping, the bodies have all been re owered, and the inquest was held on Tuesday. The evi dence having been gone into, the jury consulted and re turned the folloaing Verdict : "We find a verdict of Ac cidental Death,' caused by the ignorance of Daniel Francis, one of the deceased, in not using the preclutionary means of boring, and not keeping plans of the workings of the colliery.' The jury gave their fees to the fund for the relief of the widows and children, the corcirn• and other gentlemen also contributing to the same object. [ADVERTISUMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.— Rough Skin, Cralced Lips, Chapped Hands, Pimples and Sores.—Dreary November, always noted in England for its inclemency, is this year less regardful of our appearance and comfort than usual. • Skill affections are already as.general as we commonly find them in January. So sudden and unexpected has been the demand for Holloway's Ointment to seothe these irritating disorders, that it became compttliory to make fresh arrangements in the manufactory to meet the public want. As a cosmetic this Ointment is likewise-in valuable. Nothing can be more harinlcis to the most deli cate :kin, or more effective in its operation.
