To which are added remarks on the wonders of the Microscope in revealing the hidden "of Life within Life,' and its advantages in detecting, by Mysteries urinary examination, the cause and effect of every variety of these omplaints, with numerous engravings and cases, BY SAMUEL LI'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any ether class of dis,ase known to modern pathologists. Its perusal Is Particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physzcal condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the I..elth, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is ntltleu, It le absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are rineiples of personal management which cannot be violated with tit Incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc eed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, bow those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional lerangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

Fresh up to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, the arrivals of English wheat were very moderate, and the show of samples was consequently limited. Most kinds were in fair, but not to say active, request, and Monday's prices were well supported. Over 7,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come in this week. Fine red and white qualities sold at full quotations, but inferior kinds were a slow inquiry. Barley moved off steadily at fully Monday's currency. We had a moderate inquiry for malt on former terms. Good sound oats sold at full quotations, but low samples met a dull inquiry. Beans, peas, and flour moved off slowly at Monday's currency. going on between the two countries for carrying out the provisions of the treaty.

Mr. BLAND asked the Under Secretary for War, whether Major Ord, of the Royal Engineers, had been appointed Governor of Dominica ? and if so, whether he was still retained on the full-pay list of that corps I and if so, whether there were any reasons for his being an exceptional case 1 Sir J. RAMSDEN said that it was usual for officers obtaining such appointmeats to remain for six months afterwards on full pay. This was not an exceptional case. The motion for adjournment was then agreed to. CONSPIRACY TO MURDER BILL. _ Lord PAI:icIER --- STON in moving the second reading of this bill, complained of the gross misrepresentation that had bean made that this was an alien bill. It was a bill general in its application both to her Majesty's subjects and aliens. It did not give to the executive any arbitrary powers over her Majesty's subjects or aliens, and did not give the power of expulsion. It was, there fore, a gross misrepresentation to nickname this bill an Alien Bill. He regre ted to say that pending proceed ings were likely to disclose that her Majesty's subjects had been engaged in this abominable attack, and it was the duty of her Majesty's Government to remedy any defeats in our laws in reference to such crimes. Referring to the communications that had passed between the two governments on this important question —the noble lord said that the French government was informed that her Majesty's Government would make no alteration in the alien laws of England. (Hear, hear.) He defended the conduct of the Government relative to the negotiations tbatihad passed between the two Governments. He trusted the house having had time to examine the provisions of the . bill would consent I to the second reading. Mr. MILNER GIBSON said he was not one of those who had laboured under a misapprehension of tho provision of tho bill. If such existed, he had taken the proper course to remove such misconceptions. He assured the house it was not his desire to provoke any contro versy between the Parliament of England and the French nation by the motion he had put on the paper to the following effect : " That this house hears with much concern that it is alleged that recent attempts upon the life of the Emperor of the French have been devised in England, and expresses its detestation of such guilty enterprises ; that this house is ready at all times to assist in remedying, nny defects in the el imir.a,l law which, after due investiga[ion, are proved to exit, yet it cannot but regret that her Irlajeety's government, previously to inviting the i ouse to amend the law of conspiracy at the present time, has not telt it to be their duty to make some reply to the important des patch received from the French government, dated Paris, Jan 20,1858, aid which has,beeu laid b-fore parliament." His object in bringing forward his amendment was to invite an expression of opinion from the house strictly relevant to me bi:l before it, but the carrying of it would not necessarily have the effect of defeating the bill. Ho was personally adverse to the bill, and atter his motion was disposed of he should vote for the other amendment proposed by the hon. member for Plymouth for throwing out the bill. (LETT SITTING.)

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at 5 o'clock. Lord WYNFORD presented a petition from the Quarter Sessions at Monniouth praying for au amend ment of the evils which existed in the licensing system with respect to the sale of beer. Earl CARNARVON presented a petition from Bland. worth, in the county of Hants, praying for increased facilities for the propagation of the Gospel in India. He asked whether it was the intention of the Govern ment to bring in any measure on this subject during the present session. Earl GRANVILLE said it was not the intention of the Government to introduce any bill on the subject ! BANKRUPTCY LAWS. In answer to Lord BROUGHAM, The LORD CHANCELLOR said a bill for the amendment of the bankruptcy and insolvency laws was already prepared and would very sbortiy be introduced, but whether in this house or the Commons was not yet decided. CONVEYANCE OF TROOPS TO INDIA. Viscount DUNGANNON rose to call the attention of the Government to the unsafe and unseaworthy nature of the ships selected for the conveyance of the troops to India by the overland reutefrom Suez to Aden, but mare - especially to the car dition of the Attila and the Ajdaba, sent to convey a detachment of the 69th Regiment. This regiment was sent out to India, but on arriving at Suez it was discovered that the Alma, which ought to have conveyed them on, had broken her shalt. Tile troops were afterwards transferred to the Ajdaha, which also sprung a leak, and was compelled to put back when ab,ut four hundred miles from Aden. He bad been informed that the AjdafA had been unseaworthy, and had been condemned eighteen months before she was taken up, and ho wi3hed to know from the Government whether such a statement was correct? Lord PANMURE said the matter was very easily explained. In her passage to Suez before the troops were embarked an accident occurred to an important part of the machinery of the Alma, the vessel selected for the conveyance of 69th Regiment. art! it a.t. conse=quently impessiWo tLat she could proceed. The troops were transferred to the Ajdaba, but from an accident, which no human fore-ight could prevent, she sprang a leak, and was compelled to return to Suez. Both casualties were each that it was impos sible to provide against, but he was happy to say that no loss of life occurred. During the whole of the trans port of troops to India, there bad not been a single instance in which loss of life had occurred. After a few words from the Earl of CARNARVON and the Earl of HARDWICK the subject dropped. EDUCATION IN INDIA. The Earl of ELLENBOROUG II rose to move for a copy of the report of Mr. Chapman (Behar), director of public instruction in India in 1855 and 1856. The aoble earl took the opportunity of calling the atten tion of their lordships to the state of education in India, and the efforts the Government had made to exend it. It was impossible that such efforts had not produced Material effect, and it was desirable to know in wjaat direction those exertions had extended, whether good or bad. He had not seen the report for which he moved, but, from extracts, which had been placed in his hands, it appeared there was a deep-rooted prejudice prevalent amongst the natives against the Government system of education. Earl GRANVILLE said it was early yet to trace the effects of a measure adopted only in 1854. It was not true that the educational measure bad any effect in causing the mutiny. He had no objection to the pro duction of the report alluded to by the noble earl. (LEFT SPEAK IN G. ) HOUSE OF COMMONS—(This Evening.) The EIZAKER took the clgair at 4 o'cloc►k. PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The bill was read a second time. The Mersey Docks and Harbour (New Works) Bill was read a second tune. MUTINOUS SEPOYS. Mr. RICH gave notice that on this day week he should put a question to the President of the Board of Control bearing upon the recently reported engagements of our troops with the mutinous sepoys, and ask him whether any and what orders had been given to the officers of our troops relative to their giving quarter or not to mutinous sepoys found in arms.

Wh et h er h e intended to appoint a Minister of J us ti ce twhoeutladbilaeyof the house. for the improvement and supervision of the law of the country? THE PARIS TREATY OF PEACE. Lord J. MANNERS put a question to the noble lord relative to the article of toe Treaty of Paris, and also in reference to the Circassians, Lord PALMERSTON said in reference to Mr. Ewart's question, that the Government felt it their duty to give effect, as far as possible, to the opinions of the house embodied in a resolution, but the resolu tion agreed to last session by the house in reference to the appointment of a Minister of Justice was so ambiguous that it was difficult to uuderstand what was meant. He thought the appoint. ment of a Minister of Justice for conducting prosecu• tions was so repugnant to our constitution that the house The app o i n t men t of a Minister but there were so many di ffi culties surrounding it that tee Government that part of the reso lution. With reference t o th e ques tion of the noble lord (Lord J. Manuers), he b e li eve d a n application was ma de at P ar i s by certain Circassian chiefs for assistance against Russia; but as the Cir cassians took no part in Resisting the allies, it was not thought desirable to renew the war on their behalf, the otject for which the allies went to war with Russia baying been accomplished. With of the ports in th e Bl ac k Sea, Russia had regard to the 12 articl es of the Treaty of P a ri s , r e l a tiv e t on the eastern sid e , b ut none on t h e Application had b een made to Russ i a to open ports on that aide , but she declined—first o n the openedwoe s t the western openingn si de. three ground that the ports to be opened were only to be those where custom-house, quarantine, and p lice regulations existed. To that the Govern ment remonstrated, and Russia then exercised her self from not opening those p ort , on the groun d th a t she was engaged in hostilities with tribes on that part of the coast, and had been unable to make the necessary arrangements for opening them.

On Sunday, Feb. 21, 1858, at Three o'clock, p.m. The committee, to whom the duty of arranging the pro ceedings was delegated by the meeting at the Freemasons' Hall, have resolved upon the following PROGRAMME. 1. The assembly to be held in the open ground between the Serpentine and the Marble Arch. 2. No speaking to be attempted. All friends of the movement and of order are earnestly requested to regard this regulation, interference with which will afford opportunities for disguised opponents and emis saries of the French police to cause or incite others to break the peace. 3. The following resolutions will be submitted by sig nals described below Resolution I. That this meeting regards Lord Palmers ton's Conspiracy to Murder Bill as mischievous and unnecessary, and pledges itself to use every legal and con stitutional means to prevent it disgracing the English Statute-book. While expressing a warm and cordial friendship for the people of France, this meeting protests against the dictation of any Foreign Power in English legislation, and has learned with indignation and disgust the conduct of the majority of the House of Commons with reference to the introduction of the measure. This meet ing, nevertheless, records its strong disapprobation of assassination, or any outrage of the law. Resolution —That a memorial to her Gracious Majesty the Queen be adopted, praying that her Majesty will re move Lord Palmerston from office, and that, in the event of the Conspiracy to Murder Bill being submitted for her signature ' she will exercise her constitutional right to re fuse to ratify a bill regarded by the people of this county with shame and humiliation. 4. The following will be the mode by whioh the fore going resolutions will be submitted to the meeting, viz. : At 3.30 the first resolution will be taken as read, and a white signal flag will be held up, to signify that those who approve of it are to hold up their hands. The white flag will then be waved, to indicate that the vote in favour has been taken. Those who disapprove of the proposition will hold up their hands when the white flag is reversed. Immediately afterwards a blue flag will be raised, as a signal to vote in favour of the memorial to the Queen. The hands to be put down when the flag is waved, and those who are opposed to the adoption of the memorial to vote when the flag is reversed. As soon as the votes have been taken, the committee earnestly request that the assemblage will disperse in a quiet and orderly manner, and hand over to the police all who attempt to break the peace, or create disorder. At tempts of this kind will only be made by spies and persons hostile to the movement. By order of the Committee of the Meeting at Freemasons' Tavern.
