Ths essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, hich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man limd, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is r•artteularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled, • It hi absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are rinclples of personal management which cannot be violated with . lit incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue red the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may he removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, d 'hat there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. maPublished by J. olnte had of -.-den, 201 Ware - ick-lane, Paternoster-row, and Mann, 39 , Cornhill; Horne, 19, Leicester-square ; consulted Leadenhall street or fiord the Author, who may be B _".% Ht .d daily, from II till 2, and from 6 till h, at his residence, 37 eut ra-square, London.

GUlLDHALL.—Christopher Marney, described as a lance corporal inthe Limerick Militia, stationed at Aldershot, was charged with assaulting Rebecca Kennedy, an old woman, by striking her on the mouth and knocking out one of her teeth ; also with assaulting Emma Scetcher and Emanuel Cohen by kicking them in a most dangerous manner. It appeared that tbe prisoner was drunk in a pnblichouse in Castle-street, Holborn, and in con sequence of his beating a little boy Mrs. Kennedy interfered, when he knocked her down twice, and when her daughter, Mrs. Scotcher, attempted to raiso her he kicked her (the daughter) several times. Mr. Cohen,' an iron merchant, being in the bar at the time, an-1 hearing the noise, at the landlady's _request ran into the taproom, when he was iane cliat-:ly attacked by the prisoner, who kicked him several times and tried-to injure him for life. Alderman Phillips said it was cowardly for a man' to strike a woman under Any circumstances ; but in, this case the prisoner urged nothing in extenuation of his conduct in committing such ruffianly assaults, and he therefore committed him to prison for one month with hard labour. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. --Tho s . Rattigan was brought up for final examination, charged with obtaining money from Lieut. A. Smith, of the Foot Guards, by false and fraudulent representa tions. From the evidence of Lieut. Smith it appeared hat some time ago the prisoner applied to him for pecuniary assistance to enable him to redeem his clothes, so that he might go into the Hospital for ConsumptCon creditably, he being in bad health and baring obtained. an order for admission. The prisoner stated that be had been drum-major in the 56th Regiment, had serred in the Crimea, obtained a medal, and had been discharge I. The prisoner produced a medal and some papers relat ing to his services and discharge, which he looked over cursorily, without having any suspicion at the . time of their real character. Feeling interested in the prisoner's story he advanced him some money, and continued to make the advances that were re; quired to get out the clothes from pawn until the prisoner was in a condition to take his place in the hospital. The money advanced to the prisoner was upwards of 31. Having some suspicions, from cir cumstances that subsequently came under his no tice, he wrote to the depot at Colchester and to the War-offiee, and the replies he received informed him that no such man as Rattigau had been drum major in the 56th Regiment, or had gone out to the Crimea, or had received a medal and his dig:- charge. He went to the Mendicity Society's office to ascertain if the prisoner was known there, and was informed that the prisoner was not known, but that inquiries would ba made. In a short time afterwards he heard that pi ioner was in custody, and that evidence was forthcoming to show that an imposition hid been practised upon him. The prisoner wastemanded until yesterday, when Corporal John Edmunds, of the 56th Regt , proved that Rattigan had formerly been a private in the regiment, had been discharged years age, and never was drum-majo-. The Mendicity Society, after Lieut. Smith's visit, set on f 'ot inquiries, and succeeded in ascer taining that the prisoner had imposed upon several ladies and noblemen and gentlemen, among whom were Lady Augusta Cadogan, the Duke of Welling ton the RoV. J. Kingsley, &c. Mr. Beadon said thre was no doubt in his mind whatever that the prisoner had bees guilty of a gross fraud in going about obtaining money from, beuevolent persons by fraudulent statements. As it was clearly proved that the prisoner was an impos tor he should send him to hard labour fur three months. Piospectuses and Forms rims on application.

MEREWET HER. MARYLEBNOE.—Two young men, who gave their names Chas. Lucas, and George Croley, were charged with highway robbery upon the person of Elizabeth Hemnaans. Prolecutrix deposed that she had been living in the service of Capt. Banbury in the Regent's -park, and that, having been but a short time then, and being nearly a stranger in London, she inquired of, the prisoners, whom she met in Church-street on the previous night after leaving her situation, to direct her to the establishment knoa-n as the Ser vants' Horne, which she berievediwas situate:in Nut ford piece, Edgware-road. They told her they were going in that direction, and would show her the way. They proceeded some distanCe when Lucas said to Croley, " We should like a drop of gin," and she remarked th a t s h e wou ld t reat them. He (Lucas) then exdainied, " We don't want silver, we want gold," and seizing her by the' thibat threw her down, when be and bis companion treated her with the greatest violence. She screamed out " Murdt , r !" and on two policemen coming up she was reached. Had it.not been for their opportune arrival she believed that she would have been mur dered. The prisoners took from her pocket her purse, containing 21. 15s. in gold and silver. • The prisoners, who denied the charge, were re manded till Weinesday-. Mr. John Horton, who for a great many years has carried OK business as a carpenter and under taker in South-street, Manchester-square, was brought bef)re Mr. Broughton for the third time, charged with forging bills of exchange. The prisoner, who reserve 1 his defence, was committed for trial upon four distinct charges. EAST INDIA COMPANY. [A portion of the following appearod in our late editibn of last evening:]— The adjourned meeting of the proprietors for the purpose of considering the proposed change in the Government of India, was held this morning at the East India House, Leadenhall- atreet Mr. Ross Mangles, M.P., chairman of the Court of Directors, in the chair. The attendance of proprietors was more numerous than at either of the previous meetings. The CHAIRMAN, in commencing the business of the meeting, urged on the proprietors the necessity of their bringing the proceedings to a close that day, either by affirming or negativing the resolution before them. In reply to a question from Mr. Lewin, The CHAIRMAN, as we understood, intimated that the directors would support, by their votes, the resolution proposed by Mr. Crawshay. Mr. HEL➢s, in resuming the debate, referred to the petition circulated by the directors since the last meeting, and said that its perusal confirmed the impression it made on bias when read to the court of proprietors. He highly applauded the document, observing it was one that any Chancellor of the Esschequer might be proud of —and one that would do credit to the best served country in Europe. (Hear, hear.) It represented ❑ot only the feelings of the court of directors, but those of the proprietors and the public out of doors. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) He referred to a former proposi tion of Mr. Jones's, urging the desirableness of their having Indian representatives in the hoard of directors to inform the tour' and the people of England of the actual requirements of the Indian people. (Hear, hear.) It was to be regretted that the Government had not allowed the court of proprietors and directors an opportunity of discussing the details of their proposed,Mea sure, especially as the members of the court of directors comprised men who were perhaps the best qualified in this country to give a sound opinion on Indian Government. He was, however, very much afraid that her Majesty's Government were rather more anxious to silence than take advantage of their information, and that they con templated shutting up the India House by a sudden stroke. (Hear, hear.) He referred to public meetings that had been held in reference to India to mislead the people of England—he especially alluded to one held at the London Tavern, attended by Lord Clanricarde, brother-in law of the present Go verisor-General of India,and observed his lordship then stated that the annexations in India had taken place at the instigation and direction of the Court of Directors. That and similar statements made by the noble lord showed astonishing ignorance or false hood on his part, and was, he (Mr. Helps) presumed, his passport to office. The hon. proprietor said he entirely concurred in the resolution, which is to the followieg effect :—" That the proposed transfer of the governing powers of the East India Company to the Crown is op posed to the rights and privileges of the East India Company, is fraught with danger to the constitu tional interests of England, is perilous to the safety of our Indian empire, and calls for the resist ance of the Corporation by all constitutional mea❑s ;" and then proceeded to discuss it clause by clause urging that facts and circumstances confirmed the truth of its expression. The Government of the East India Com pany had produced a great amount of material prosperity amongst tire people of India, which wasabout to be putin peril by the proposed scheme of her Majesty's Government. It had also advanced Christianity, and seed once sown in the soil of religious toleration was sure to flourish and come to maturity. The people of India possessed greater freedom than any of the European countries, 'and was blessed wits one of the greatest blessings of civilisation up to the present disturbances—the freedom of the press. The policy of the Government was to condem❑ first and examine afterwards. By Dr. HALL. OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

Mr. C. MILLS, the oldest member of the Board, de fended the conduct of the Board of Directors in the Government of India. He complained that no charges could or had been made against the Board. He considered the Premier would make no cbar ! ,;e against them, but pro bably others would to whom truth was a matter of in difference. The board were ready to meet the strictest investigation into all they had done, and they empha tically denied that they bad been the cause of any delay its the transmis , ion of troops through Egypt, that being a political matter resting with the Government and the ambassador at the East. He said that the proposed change would increase the cost of Government—would elevate Mr. V. Smith to a secretaryship to whose loose rein and spurs India was to be entrusted ; the officers removed to the west end of town, and every trace of the company swept away. He remarked that Parliament was the worst tribunal before which to bring private grievances. Men were gene rally dragged before it and afterwards abu se d by it. Colonel RAWLINSON (director) said he was one of the minority at the board who were not prepared to adopt the resolution or the petition. All his associations and remini•cences were in favour of the present form of Go. vernment, having risen in that service from an infantry cadet to the high position of a director. He considered we bad been unable to realise the danger that had me naced and was menacing us now. The question was whether the proposed chat ge would or would not he for the general good of India and England. He believed it would, and proceeded to prove his opinion. Th e proxi mate cause of the rebellion, ho considered, was the an nexation of Oude, and he thought they were far from WESTMINSTER.—Thomas Fox, a man about 50 years of age, was charged with having f loniously entered the dwelling-house of Mr. Edmonds, soli citor, awl stolen therefrom a peat quantity of mis cellaneous property of considerable value. The circumstances of the case are very singular, the robbery having been committed as far back as August last, and the prisoner owing his apprehen sion to the recent confession of an accomplice in the robbery at present under sentence of four years' penal servitude for forgery. Mr. Edmonds,, a solici tor, 25, Lawrence Pountn e y-l ane , City, resided in August last at Oakley-lod ge , Chelsea, and during a ' six weeks' visit to Bo gnor l oc k e d his house up, re questing his next-door neighbour to give an eye to it. On his return, about the end of September, he found the whole of his wardrobe and a large quan tity of miscellaneous property had been carried off. He examined the house carefully, but there' were no external marks of violence about it, and the pre sumption consequently was teat it had been entered by skeleton keys. George Edward Wilmot, who described himself as a painter, glazier, and glass-cutter, the convict alluded to, who had been brought from prison by habeas, said that John Souden, the son-in-law of the man living next door to Oakley-lodge, a semi-de tached cottage, was what in slang parlance it termed ,the "putter up" of the robbery. In the presence of witness and the prisoner Fox he said that there . were articles of value in the untenanted house of Mr. Edmonds, which could be taken by opening the front door. The prisoner Fox spoke of a robbery of silks he had recently committed iu the country, and said that, having spent the proceeds, he - was now " hard up," and he and witness must-go' and do this (Mr. Edmonds's) " job." Witness in-an evil hoer consented, and accompanied prisoner, whO was provided with skeleton keys, to Oakley lodge, between five and six o'clock in the even ing. Soudeu, who had invented some excuse to get his wife and children out of the way, was waiting a few paces off in the street. Prisoner must hav ned e been in the house previously, for when he op front door with a skeleton key he said that was the d one he had used before. Witness described the' property they took then , and th e p artici-I)4m of a second visit, in which they carried off a great deal more ; the property was then disposed of,in differ ent ways. The police called witnesses to confirm as 'much as possiblecourstehoefstwatheioh it he s tatement of the shown nprtohvaet ittid F o g Wilmot, in, the had together obtained a sovereign upon a valuable hearth-rug, had been conjointly in posSession of other property. and had sold pawnbrokers' tickets relating to more. It further transpired that the per Son to whom Mr. Edmonds spoken had respect ing giving an eye to the premises was the father in-law-of Souden, and was deemed able man, but held au a very respect appointment which took him a great deal f rom h ome. The accused's only reply to the charge was that he had not pawned a pair of trousers spoken of. He was fully committed for trial to the Central Criminal Court. The prisoner is • said to be the best skeleton-key maker in theropoli t • s.

THAMES.—Robert Collins ' a well-known thief, aged 30, and lately dwelling 'at,B, Mary Ann-street, Back Chareh4ane, was brouieht- up tin'-remand charged with stealing a .horse and van - and two hogsheads of sugar, value 1691. e in, Vennington street, Ratoliff-highway. It appeared from the evidence of two police men, James Wallace and George Savage, Noe. 147 and 149 H, that on the 32th inst. their atten tion was called to ,a horse arid Ten which was stand• ing near the London. Dock Wallin ,Penpington- Wect. There was a man with a whip standing near the van whom the officers knew to be a con victed thief, and he was on the look-out. The con stables addressed the man with the whip and said to him, "There is something wrong going on here ; where is the carman gone who belongs to the van !" The person thus addressed • said, " I don't know." Th e p o li ceman sa id, " You must know, you have got the carman's whip." The fellow then said he drove for Mr. Goulding. The con stables then looked into the van and saw the prisoner and another man actively engaged in scrap ing sugar out of two hogsheads, with which' the van was laden, with iron hoops. • There were sacks under the sample holes of the hogsheads, which the thieves were tilling with sugar. The prisoner and his com panion immediately jumped out of the van and ran easily. The policemen started off, in pursuit, but only one man (the prisoner) was Captured. His hands, arms, face, and clothes were covered' with sugar, leaving no doubt, independent of the ocular proof, of the work in which he had' been engaged. The sacks in the yen contained 1231 b. of raw sugar. The two hogsheads of sugar were consigned to Thos. Wiluiot Hunt, a grocer, in High-street, White ch.tpel. The horse and van belonged to Mr. Mar tin Gilbert, cornehendler, of 75, ,Leman-street, Whitechapel. Mr. Selfe committed the prisoner for trial.

After restoring our military superiority in India there should be an amnesty proelaimedlby the Queen—(cries of no, no)—and not in the usual Planner, believing that the latter -would 'have no effect, hilt con sidered a matter of weakness. A. royal amnesty if proclaimed with. the change of Government would be considered inn - India an act of gr ace and strength. . (Cries of n0,n0.) A. sen se of duty against his rea-on induced him to appear in this singular opposition. (flear, hear.) He thought that the appearance at Delhi of a so n of the Queen of England,. surrounded with ell the pomp and pageantry of Royalty—now that thef laqs of the Princes of the Tinionr race was fast fading away— and so oner reatore tranquillity, I#iati would have more effect en the people of that country, thi_ arrival of 100,000 men. (C ries of "N o, no.) t appeared to him that with the meagre information they possessed as to the intention of the Govevameet measurer it Was waste of time to discuss the establishment of imaginary councils or possible Indian Secretaries of State, & c., as mentioned in th e p e ti t i on. H e thought it woulbe for the public good that the two boards should be brought more into harmony ; but no Minister would, he thought, be rash enoug h to tamper with the present government in India. The same machinery must be continued there, the only change being in the proclamations running in the name of the Queen inst'Sil of the Company. He did not consider tbia a struggle with the Government for patronage, which he looked upon as one of the most disagreeable duties the directors bad to perform. He would rather the patronage in reference to the civil servants should be openly distributed, one-half being re served for the sons and relations of those who had died in the service. Any change made in the military patron age was likely to be abused. Dr. BURNES, ICH., late Physician-General, Bombay, whose Son is now a prisoner in the hands of the rebels 11 ' 1 4""now, said that after 28 years of Indian experience, he chess rerward to express his unqualified _approba.tion.af the petition of:the direoners about to be presented to Parliament. Justice, truth, and dignity were imprinted in every line, and whereier be had been since its productionlie bad beard it spoken of with sen timents of approbation. He protested against the pro posed absorption of the power of the government of India into the hands of a Parliamentary party, as being fraught alike with danger to the people of India and England. • H e expat i ate d at some l eng th on the danger of Indian patronage in the bands of a corrupt minister and a servile parliament. He instanced the neglect of Parliament in the Crimean war, and their incapacity on that occasion, and asked what hope was there fur a free, distant, strong, and peculiar people from the hands of he Majesty's Government. (Hear, hear, hear.) India inset be governed in Eugland• The Court of Directors had been weighed in the balance and not found wanting, and they were the men, one would have thought, an honest Goveruinent would have wished to advise them. (Hear, hear.) There was an impression abroad that no country could be happy without it possessed institutions and laws similar to England, forgetting that it has taken us 1,000 years to be educated fit for them. The Indian had no idea of political rights. His fathers before him never possessed them, and what was wanted for India was a well chosen and le,nigriant Governor-General, who would administer. strict jnitice to all around him. (Hear, li,ar.) Captain §4arjunto (uirector) complained that Colonel Rawlineon - lcad not given the -court evidence of the evil of the working of doable government which he so strongly condemned. He doubted if the name of the 'Queen would have that effect in India it was supposed, and he had failed to discover in any thinglhat had been said by the supporters of the pro posed c h a nge any valid reasons for it. The proposition of change of power on the minds of the Indians at the present time would have the effect of agsin producing revolt, feeling that having got rid of one Government, they might another. The time to make such a change should be in times of tranquillity. (Hear, hear.) The directors_ had taken every opportunity consiatent with their promises and treaties with the natives, to advance Christianity in India, and he emphatically denied that they bad ignored that religion, or had pursued a timid and cowardly policy in that country. He challenged the fullest investigation into the present government of India by the Court of Directors. (Hear.) The proposed - change would be detrimental to the people of India, for instead of its being used as a means fbr increasing their welfare, it would be used to promote party politics in refirrence to the ins and outs of office. (Hear, hear.) It was impossible to devise a better Government than that that now exists, which was never swayed by court ing the interests of a Minister, or a constituency on the' hustings. (flear,• hear.) He defended the course taken by the Boat d in placing these petitions before the people of England, because they bad nothing to fear or conceal. (lieu, hear.) Sir F. dORRIE, deputy-chairman, had signed the petition, because he concurred in its prayer, and by so doing, he considered he was lin pportin the resolution before** meeting, approvirg of the prayer of the petition he did not bind himself to all its statements or arguments. There were, however, good grounds for most of _them.

The following military movements are ordered to take place in the South-West District wing of the 2d West York Militia, at present quartered in Anglesey Barracks, Portsea, will proceed thence to Weymouth and Portland to-morrow, and relieve a detachment of the Ist depot battalion, who will leave Portland and rejoin Parkhurst on Saturday.

[Anvaavissminr].—The misery, the disappointment, the intermixable expense of ineffectual "physic-taking," are now happily superseded by the use of Messrs Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food, which, by a pleasing and natural action on the system, removes chronic and exhausting disease, and replaces languor and pain by vigour and health. Those whom it has restored to the enjoyment of life include persons belonging to all social grades and professions, and it is a proof that the emotion of gratitude is more general than cynics imagine, when we find upwards of Fifty Thousand of the individuals thus relieved publicly expressing their sense of the benefits they have derived. T,he peer and the clergyman, the lawyer and the physician, the naval and military officer, the mer chant, tradesman, and oven the poor mechanic, have joined,, in this unanimous and unparalleled testimonial. Their ac knowledgments partake of the same spirit which characterises the communication of Mr. Evans Pepperell, who commences his letter by saying :—" For many years I have been a martyr to indigestion, acidity, heartburn, constipa tion, and nervousness to such a degree, that I was unable to stay alone in my room, or walk out alone, being constantly filled with unaccountable fears ; and I have bad several fits, remaining unconscious for about half an hour. I had the ad vice of three eminent physicians, anti taken their prescrip tions for a long time, but my ailments only increased under their influence. Your excellent Food produced, I am happy to state, an immediate change for the better, and I am now, after two weeks' use of it, a wholly different being, with ex cellent appetite,clear tongue, free from acidity and heartburn, regular in my functions, and getting stronger every day. My nerves are perfectly tranquil, and I sleep most refreshingly. With gratitude to you for so happy a change, I reinain, &c., dte., Evans Pepperell." Another gentleman, wh), like most others, invites Messrs. Du Barry to refer sufferers to him, thankfully declares ;—" I have found your incomparable Food an infallible preventive of the gont." The ladies are equally emphatic in their acknowledgments. Thus, Miss M'Lelland expresses her thanks for the removal of dye pepsia and constipation, from which she had suffered for many years. Miss M. considers Mr. Du Barry's Food a most invaluable article of diet for invalids, being highly nutritious, strengthening„and restorative, and she will feel pleasure in recommending it to her friends." What invalids most re quire is a CERTAINTY that the article recommended to them is capable of affording relief ; that they will not have again to undergo (as they have so often done) the bitter (process of trial and disappointment. This certainty they now possess, and it is no extravagance to express our confidence that it will prove the harbinger of glad tidingeto millions.

' Age NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. Prince Adalbert of Prussia visited Sheerness Dockyard yesterday. He was received by the Commander-in-Chief Vice-Admiral of the Blue E. Harvey, attended by his secretary Mr. Dyer ; Cap tain-Superintendent of the yard J. C. Fitzgerald, attended by his s ecre t ary M r. C . Creasy, Coliaman der E. Wilson, Capt - . E. P. Halst e d, o f th e Edin burgh, with Commander H. Lloyd, Capt. A. Forbes, and Coinmander W. B. Lethbridge, of the Renown, and all the principal officers of the dock yard. Also the Oolonel- , Cemmandant P. V. Eng. land and the staff of the garrison. The Prince im mediately on landing, returned the salute of the guard of honour while the Waterloo's band played the National Anthem. The Prince was then con ducted to the fitting basin, in which the Renown, new screw steamship, 91, was moored. She was all a-taut, and the Prince spoke in the highest terms of her neat yet warlike appearance. On going on board the Prince vi.,ited every part of her. 00 leaving the Renown the Prince and party proceeded to :visit the new factory, millwrights' shops, fac tory, smithery, &0., where they were received by , Mr. G. Blaxland, chief engineer of the yard, fac tory, 'dec. They then visited the storehouses, cop per store, &c., where they were received by the storekeeper, C. G. Bedford. The Prince was highly amused in the copper storeroom by an ingenious piece of mechanism erected th ere , t erme d th storekeeper's tell-tale, •as on the Prince touch ing any article and taking it from the shelves the figure door immediately swung round, changed position, and rang an alarm bell. On leaving the storerooms he proceeded to examine two new marine boilers now being tested near the new boiler house —both of which have been some weeks undergoing experiments for generating steam with certain quan tities of fuel, and to ascertain some practical infor mation as to the advantages to be derived by the new boiler against the old for marine engine purposes. They they proceeded with the principal authorities to the Admiralty-house, where they were enter tained by the gallant Admiral. Yesterday Col. C. C. Hay, Inspector-General of Musketry Instruction, and Commandant of the School of Musketry, Hythe, arrived at Chatham for the purpose of making an inspection of the troops at that garrison who are being instructed in the use of the Enfield rifle. The Inspector-Gener kl first inspected the troops under instruction belong ing to the first battalion, under the command of Col. H. Jervis, after which he inspected in succes sion the 24 and 3d battalions, the Royal Engineer*, who are being instructed by Capt. G. R. Lempriere, and the Royal Marine Light Infantry, with the whole of whom he expressed himself well satisfied. The officers of the Royal Artillery at Woolwich yesterday gave a grand concert in their ruessroom, which was attended by nearly 500 inhabitants of Woolwich and its vicinity, including the officers of the garrison and their families. In addition to the performance of the Royal Artillery band, a Polish performer, M. Kratky Baechick, played a grand introduciory valse on a singular and unique instru ment termed the cor melodicon, or four horn in one. This extraordinary instrument, invented by the performer, produces the effect of duet, trio, quartei - , sestet, and of an entire orchestra. THE ROYAL PRINCESSES OF ENGLAND.
