CRYSTAL PALACE.—E n ti re re - organ i sat i on of the Refreshment Department.—Messrs. SAWYER and STRANGE, of the London, Fleet-street, having taken this department, feel it to be but due to the public and to themselves to state the ar rangem,ents by which they hope to secure the patronage of all &asses of visitors to the Palace. In embarking upon this responsible under taking, they feel that their surest expectation of success rests on their henceforth rendering the • REFRESEIMEN r DEPARTMENT a splendid and distinctive featurein she general attractions. Their first act, Which has the sanction of the directors, will - be to throw open a series of mag,nific nt saloons in those loCalities of the Palace commanding the best views of the grounds, the fountains, and the exqui,ite scenery of the surrounding - country. It is confid ntly hoped that every class of the community visiting the Palace will find both their tastes and their purses consulted in the refreshment arrangements; for while the cuisine will contain everything that is recherché in the best English clubs, ample a ccommodation will be afforded to that large class who may wish to study economy, and at the same time seek comfort. It will be the aim of the new proprietors to give the public as many facilities far enjoying the p'easures of the table as they Could expect at the best houses of entertainment, either at the West tend or in the City. It is hoped that by a system of manage ment at once liberal and economic, the holders of season tickets and families will be induced to avail themselves of the opportunities about to be of tbrded of dining well and cheaply. The arrangements for the general publicmust necessarily be of a very comprehensive character, and while the proprietors undertake to satisfy file most renned tastes, they will not neglect the more simple ones. By . a judicious blending of th e E ng li s h w ith t h e f ore i gn fb rms o f th e culi nary RA they hope to make the department worthy of that world wide patronage which is bestowed on the Palace itsel '• 4 novel feature will consist in the construction of a suite of smoking rooms, Which will be of easy access from the refreshment saloons. The refreshments are now supplied by the new proprietors, but imme diate notice will be given -of the completion of the larger arrange raents. NIESSRS.

BY SAMUEL LA!MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Statriniated Member of the 'University of Edinburgh, Honoriry Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point ont 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 other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the h"slth, happiness, and privileges to which every human being Is e !tied . It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated with ° it incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue evil the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties nay be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, tnd how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all, 'hat there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

I.lso to the support received from the peeple of Eegland, I I,elieve our army i; new r i elev e rier , great empire and securing it to' our p3SiesidOil, trust, till the end of time. (Hear.) But let ua net lose sight of the great lesson and warning we have received. Let us never imagine that a great Power like that to which we belong can ever exist with out being liable, even in the midst of the greatest seeming security, to serious danger ; but let us re member that it is at all times a matter well worthy of our best attention how our army and navy can be constantly kept in a state of the highest effici ency. (Cheers.) Don't let us suppose that it is necessary to be extravagant. Extravagance is not desirable nor even advantageous ; but the efficiency of its military and naval establishments is an im perative necessity for the safety of any great em pire. And as long as England wishes to remain that proud, that glorious country which we now rejoice to think it is, let us never forget, even in moments of peace, that the united services of the army and navy deserve to be main tained in the satisf ic•ory condition in which, I am happy to say, they now are. (Cheers.) As to myself, if there be any R•sitiou of which a man may feel justly proud, it is of having tree honour to be at the head of the English army, and as far as my humble endeavours can carry me in looking after the interests of that army, both in it a cellective and its individual elements. it shall be my earnest wilily to maintain it in tbe efficient state in which I am proud to say I have found it, -nd in which I trust, when I !ay down my staff of office, I shall be able to hand it over to my suc cessor. (Cheers.) The Duke of NORTHVMDERL AND, in returning 'hanks on behalf of the navy, said that the branch of the service which he represented looked with ad miration ou the deeds of the army in India. This country had enjoyed what was, comparatively speaking, a naval peace for many years, and long might that peace continue for the prosperity of England and of the civilised world. But whenever a war came, as come it would, we sh iuld reap the advantage of having maintained our navy in i a pre sent efficient condition. The . navy was how inspir d with a noble sentiment of loyalty to their Sovereign and a sense of duty to their country. (Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR said, we were greatly indebted to the governing power of this country, and when a Prime Minister was called at a moment's warning to take the reins of Government, and did not hesie tate to take them, he was entitled to the thanks of the public. (Cheers.) There might be differences of opinion as to the form of our government, but, for his own part, it had always been his prayer, as it was now his pride, that when he became the head of the city of London he might have the honour of entertaining the Earl of Derby as Prime Minister of England. (Cheers and a laugh.) He was thankful that his prayer had been answered, for he most sin cerely believed that the Conservatives would save the country. They were not the enemies but the friends of well-considered progress; and if they were only allowed to remain in office for a few years he was satisfied the country, instead of losing anything, would gain a great deal. The Lord Mayor con cluded by proposing "The health of the Earl of Derby and the rest of her Majesty's Ministers." The toast was received with much cordiality. The Earl of DEitBY, who was greeted with loud cheers, then rose and said,—My Lord Mayor, my lords, ladies, and gentlemen,—l rise for the purpose, of returning to you, in my own name and in that of my colleagues, our grateful and sincere acknow le Igmente for the honour you have just conferred upon us, for the too complimentary terms in which your lordship has been pleased to propose the toast, and for the very flattering manner in which it has been received by this distinguished assembly. I am well as are, my Lord Mayor, that fur the greatest portion of that reception I and my colleagues are not so much indebted to any personal merits of our own as t the position which by the favour of the Crown we at present occupy. I believe it is inherent in the British character that every man woo for the time being is charged with the arduous task of conducting the affairs of this great country is certain to meet with respectful consideration in any meeting of his fellow-countrymen, end that from no unworthy motive, from no unseemly defer ence to mere temporary authority or station, but from more generous and more honourable feelings. Those who have been at all connected with public life know well that, although here and there cer tain political questions may cross the path of a public man, and render his course somewhat differ ent from his predeces,.ors' or his successors', yet with regard to nine -tenths, I may even say 99-hundred ths of the business which comes before him , th e duties to be performed by the Minister are precisely the same, whether he be Whig, or Tory, or Radical. There are to be made the same sacrifices of time, of toil, of study, of domestic comfort, of private hap piness, too often of health, and sometimes even of life itself. There are to be encountered all the ob loquy and misrepresentation of political opponents, and sometimes the dissatisfaction of disappointed friends. (A laugh.) And against this labour and all these sufferings the emoluments or the advan tages of office would be a poor return indeed if they were not sweetened and aided by the approbation and esteem of our fellow-countrymen. (Cheers.) My Lord Mayor, I know that upon occasions like the present it would me most unseemly to enter upon any subject of political controversy, or to raise any question which would excite any poli tical feeling, and if I in the slightest degree deviate from the wholesome rule and refer to one topic of public interest, it is because that topic is, or, at least, ought to be removed beyond the pale of an tagonistic principles, and also is a question of the deepest importance to this great centre of the com merce of the world. It is a subject towards which public attention has recently been directed with an intensity of interest which forms a striking con trast with the apathy with which it was regarded is former times. I need hardly say my Lord Mayor, that I allude to that great empire which has been referred to by the illustrious duke who last ad dr ssed you, and to our social and political rela tions with that mighty dependency our Indian em pire. The formation of that empire is a history unpara leled in theannals of the world. It is a cir cumstance that reflects the highest credit upon the energy, the ability, and the vigour of our cout.try men that in the space of little more than a hundred I years a company of English merchants setting foe th upon the peaceful -occupations of commerce, should so far have extended their power as to have established a permanent influence over a populatioi exceeding by tenfold that of their native country, and over dominions bearing a still larger proportion to the narrow circumference of these little islands. That they should have so created such a power and established such an empire speaks volumes for the I energy and the enterprise of those by whom during that comparatively brief period the affairs of that great empire have been conducted. (Cheers.) And 1L t me say here that, although undoubtedly iu the earlier portion of its history, and, perbap4, even at some later periods, there may have been acts com mitted with regard to India which will not bear the strictest examination according to the severe rules of political morality, yet upon the whole there never was a Government which for so lengthened a period displayed so much power, so much ability, made so admirable choice of its servants—who, in their turn exhibited such distinguished talents —or which, upon the whole, conducted its affairs with such p irity of motives and so studied the interests of the people confided to their charge as the Government of India. My Lord Mayor, I am bound to pay that tribute to the Go ; vernment of the East India Company at thepresecani moment, when it appears to be upon its P° l i t citler deathbed. (A cry of "No" and laughter.) tainly appears to be the general op i n i o n of the pub lie that the time has arrived when the MIN ion tf r p 4 zmN ANi k. that Cnnpany eae leei7 lei, t' en to e arart :eteat elese3, - e } e e, it L ae hieherto performed must, in tue necessary and na tural course of events, be transferred to the direct authority of the Crown. That authority for many years has been indirectly, but not less really, excr cissd ; and the transfer of the nominal authority is but a small change in the actual exercise of political power in regard to India. But, my Lord Mayor, that transfer is by no means so easy and simple a task as some would suppose. (Cieiiers. )Great interests have to be consulted, great difficulties to be over come, and a great and important problem has to be solved. That problem is no less than this—how, if the change is to take place, it is possible at the same time to secure the necessary undivided re sponsibility of a Minister of the Crown and to sur round him with that knowledge and experience with reference to all the mighty and varied inte rests of that vast empire which is so necessary to any Minister dealing with such complicated and diversified effeirs. That is the problem which Par liament has to cave, and I think he would be a bold, nt t to say a presumptuous Minister woo could hope by himself, or wall the aid of his col leagues, with a notice of a few days, or even a few weeks, to strike out a scheme which would not be liable to grave objections, or which in its progre-s would not require serious modifications. We have been called upon suddenly and unexpectedly, as your lordship has stated, to undertake the eines of Government, and among others the one to which I have alluded, which is riot the least pressing. We have not the presumption to suppose that we can be pre-eminently successful. We have deemed it our duty to wring forward a measure which, as we believe, may effect some of the objects to which I have referred. We laid that meat ore before the tuntry, purposely and intentionally, previously to the recess, in order that it might be subjected to public investigation arid inquiry. We do not de precate, but, on the contrary, we court discussion. We court suggestions. We court the co-operation and advice of Parliament and of the country, with the view of rendering the change which we propose as safe and beneficial as we earnestly desire that it may prove to be. The one thing which we alone deprecate—and which we deprecate, not for the sake of the Government of the day, but on account of the important interests involved both in this country and India—is that a question involving such mighty interests, and of such overwhelmitg importance should be made the sport of political parties or the baetlefield of rival disputant. We shall approach this groat question in no such pre sumptuous or controversial spirit ; and fur the sake both of this country and of India I trust that the measure we have submitted to Par liament will be discussed by those who object to it, and by those who gave it their sup port, not in a spirit of political controversy, but of fair and dispassionate argument - , with the object of rendering the great changes which is proposed as safe and efficient as possible. We must remember, however, while we are legislating on the subject of India, that that country has been recently, and still is, the scene of a formidable and alarming revolt, which has risen to the magnitude of a mighty war. During that revolt instances of atrocity have occurred at which human nature shudders, and over which humanity would fain draw the - veil ; but our countrymen have performed upper ralleled acts of gallantry and heroism. Their daring in the field, their courage in the siege, their patient and heroic endurance have hardly been equalled in the military history of the world. So long as history shall be known, so long as the world shall last, will be familiar as household words to every English (ran the recollection of the noble gallantry and desperate courage dis played at the siege and capture of Delhi, and the heroism, the patience, the more than mortal suffering of the noble garrison of Lucknow, Even while I speak I trust that a brighter glory is about to beam upon the name of Lucknow. I trust that the gallant and illustrious chief who com mands the army of India, and who has been collect ing his forces fur a final and decisive effort, may at this moment have crushed beneath the iron heel of conquest the last embers of this serious mutiny. I rust that even now Lucknow may be once again in the power of our victorious troops. I w,sh I could think that when Luck-now is captured it would be possible for us to sheathe the sword. That sword must still be drawn, if not for war, at least to execute the stern behests of justice. (Hear.) There are deeds which cannot be allowed to go un punished. There is innocent blood which calls for just retribution. (Cheers.) But, although the sword may be drawn, let it be the sword of cool, calm, and impartial justice ; let it not be the sword of wild and indiscriminate revenge. Punish you must—assert your authority you must—extort a severe penalty you must from those who have com mitted deeds which even legitimate warfare could not sanction ; but when you have exacted that mea sute of punishment I trust wo shall exhibit in India the best principles of that Christianity which we are anxious to extend throughout the world. (Cheers.) I hope the day may not be far distant when justice will give place to mercy, and I trust we shall then be ready to recognise not only the great debt of vengeance we owed, but also the higher duty which devklves upon us of Plowing mercy to those who are no longer in arms against us, to those who having been momentarily seduced from their alle giance under the influence of strong temptations have again submitted to our authority, and, above all, that we shall recognise the grateful task im posed upon us of rewarding those—and many there are both in high and low stations—who have ad hered to their allegiance under all trials, who have never faltered or flinched in their fidelity towards us, and especially those who have exerted them selves to save the lives of innocent Europeans whom chance had thrown in their power. If we are just to punish I trust we shall be equally just to reward, and that when this mutiny shall be ended we shall remember that duty and policy alike call upon us not to wage an indiscriminate and exterminating warfare, but as soon as possible to heal the deep wounds which it has inflicted, and to show to India that if we are to remain masters in that country we arc so not mt_rely for selfish purposes but for the benefit and advantage of the people over whom we exercise authority. (Cheers.) My Lord Mayor, I will not refer to a single topic more, nor would I have referred to this if it had been po:sible to connect it in any way with party spirit. I will not advert to a matter which must be of great interest to this metropolis—viz., the measure which has been for sonic years in agitation for the reconstruc tion of the great corporation over which your lord ship so worthily presides, except to say that, as I trust discussion may have softened asperities and modified extreme opinions, so I trust that it may be possible for the wisdom of Pailiament to devise a measure which shall place that institution more in consonance with the habits and requirements of d o e ir tr_ ai t i_ the present age, without in the least degree inn frets' its dignity, power, or importance, considera tion to secure in all future time the . s-tmration due to for its chief magistrate, a ci7d"s;ublic duty that the sentiments of high hone.unrsa have characterised with but very few exceptions I am sure, will be your predecessors, and w by yOUr lordship. (Cheers.)

T).O LORD MAYOR O. t House oL Lords," coupling vri h mu? of the ew lor, i o to the woolsick had, he said, ' with uni- versal . - The LORD CHANCELLOR, in responding, said, — I may be pardoned for a momentary emotion of pride at having for the first time been placed in the proud position of acknowledging the compliment just paid to the House of Lords, of which I so re cently b: came a member. I st trid before you a striking example of the pe:uliar constitution of as it pri nc ip a lly i s , o f that a,sP.emlily. Composed, hereditarylegislators—of men of long a,nd illustrious descent—it is yetre Ldy to open ifs portals to receive th - pse whom fortune, or public service, or accident, may have contributed to raise from the rank of corn limner:. Recruited as the peers are from the people, they do not stand as a class apart, intrenched within their own privileges, but blend their interests with those of the mass of the community, being anxious to advance the public goo 1, of which their own forms a part. I trust there never will be so fatal a step taken in ',his country as an"' attempt to encroach upon their privileges or interfere with tie ir inde pendence of act on. If that attempt should unfor tuiately be made, the House of Lords will be found, in the exercise of the . high function)! intrust d to them by the Constitution, prepared to act as .a bulwark againat which the tide of popular violence will break in vain—as the deliberate and watchful gutedian of the public interes4 and the safeguard of our most precious and venerable institutions. My Lot cl Mayor—l have been elevated most unex pectedly to a high position ; and when I reflect on the duties and responsibilities involved in it I may well tremble with apprehension at my insufficiency it I were presumptuous enough to trust my strength and wisdom. But, eutleavourinAie I shall do, most faithfully an d consc i en ti ous ly to ,perform theduties of my high station, resolved 'to employ my best faculties in the public service, however I may be conscious of many difficulties, I trust I shall not altogether fail in fulfilling the high and important trust which has been confided to me. (Cheers.) Tee Duke of CAMBRIDGR then proposed " The health of the Lord Mayor," which was cordially espoedecl to. The LORD MAYOR returned thanks, and gave " The House of Commons," coupling with the toast the name of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. His lordship observed that the predecessors of the pre sent Government had left them a little bill which it was the duty of the Chancellor of the Exchequer to find a itieens of pay ing—(a laugh)—aed if for this purpose it was found necessary to propose any new taxation the responsibility ought not to rest on the present Ministry. He hoped that the right lion. gentleman would succeed in devising a tax with which all parties would be satisfied—(a laugh) —and which would be paid ungrudgingly. The CHANCELLOR of the EaCHEQUER, who was re ceived with cheers, said—My Lord 11ayor, I can not, like the Lord Chancellor, say that I have only recently become a member of that branch of the Legislature in which I enjoy a seat, for on several occasions I have been called upon to return thanks for the House of Commons in this hall, and, indeed, I should feel some embarrassment on the present occasion from the difficulty of varying the phrases in which our acknowledgments shoild be conveyed to you, did I not recollect how ancient, how inti mate, and how cordial have been the relations which have always subsisted between that assembly and this great corporation. I know, therefore, my Lord Mayor, that the proposal of our health on your part, and. its reception by the citizens of London, are not a mere idle ceremony. The connexion to which I have referred has, in my mind, been favour aide to public liberty ; it has conduced to the min t, nance of the independence of the House of Com mons, and has cherished the high spirit which has been displayed by this famous corporation. With regard to the allusion your Lordship has made to ' the difficult position which I now occupy, I must thank you for the very encouraging manner in which you have offered, on the part of the citizens of London, to come forward to supply the defici ency which is at present apparent in her Majesty's exchequer. (Laughter.) Certainly that exchequer is not now in an over-brimming state; but, after such an expression of feeling from the representa tive of the wealthiest city in the world, I can assure you that when the budget is introduced to the Hou s e of Commons—and it certainly cannot be long delayed—l shall enter upon that difficult and ardu ,,us task with much more confidence and courage than I should have felt had I not had the honour of being your Lordship's guest this evening. (Laughter.) The announcement on behalf of the city of London that they are prepared to pay new taxes is one which I have not a dotibt will to-morrow have a very favourable influence upon the public securities of this coun try. (Laughter.) Frequently as the grate ful task has devolved upon me of returning thanks on behalf of the House of Commons to the chief magistrates of this great city, I can assure you that my satisfaction is increased to-night, when I re,c.dleet that the eiainent individual who occupies the high position of Lord Mayor is also a member of the House of Commons, and, although I would hardly presume to make a political allusion on such au occasion as this, I may venture to add that I have great pleasure in frequently meeting his lord ship not merely within the same walls, but in the same lobby. (A laugh.) I assure you, however, my Lord Mayor, that the gratification I experience in finding a member of the House of Commons filling the high position whi.:ll you now occupy is not occa s:oned by any political feeling. I have had the honour of being the guest of Whig Lord Mayors, and of thanking them for such compliments as you have this evening paid to the House of Commons. Whether the Lord Mayor be a Whig or a Tory is to me a matter of indifference ; but it is to me— and I hope it is b every one—a sulject of congra tulation that the ancient connection between the House of Commons and the City of London should be maintained in s 3 peculiar and intimate a manner when the chief magistrate of this city is also a mem ber of the House of Commons, for it binds together two institutions which have illustrated the history of this country. (Cheers.) The LoRD Mszoit then proposed "The Bar of England," to which the ATTORNEY -GENERAL re sponded. e city having The health of the magisttegsoodfbj Sir G. CAI t Ir ,, been proposed, and acknow ROLL, The Earl of H ARD WICK'S gave " The L a d y Mayoress." The toast was duly honoured, and the party then broke up. T w i troic or THI AVA. — According t o th e l a t es t advised" f r om Trincomal ee , d ated the 23rd of February, ec i e to the value of 77,00 J /, h a d b een saved out of the !,21;50,0001. that was on board the mad Ava. A quantity of baggage and cared had been washed on shore, and a party of Ceylon E. flee was guarding it. As soon as the fore part of the Ave should break up some portion of the mails woul I, it was expected, be floated ashore. Some divers had arrived at the wreck, and as BOOR as the sea was smoother they would commence operations. The weather overhead was favourable. The Aldmiralty al4ent of the Ave, and the commander and some of his efficers were at the scene of the wreck watching the breaking up of the ship, in older to save as much as pos•ible of what was on board of her. As considerable disp its has arisen as to the pricii'e time when the Ava was wrecked, the fallowing information has been fur nished by a naval officer just arrived in England who was one of her passengers :—Ju•t after four, p.m , .the eastern coast of C e yl on was s i g h te d f or t h e first t ime hem the starboard bow. At half-past seven is! the evening an apparently stationary light was observed, which was supposed to be the Trincomalee light. Ex actly as hour afterwards the helm was put a-star board, and Captain Kerton, the commander of the Ava, gave orders to keep off the land f o u r points. As soon as the land was seen on the port bow, the helm was e. put hard a-starboard, and the engines were stopped . Be fore, however, she lost her way, after turning astern, she bilged on a reef that was on the starboard s ide, and in less than half en hour afterwards the ship was full of water, THE LEVIATHAN. Yesterday afternoon considerable anxiety W 39 mani fested on the river for the safety of the Leviathan steam ship, moored off Deptford, in consequence of the break ing of two •of her bow mooring chains. The ship all along has been held by three chains at her stem, and during heavy weather without any failure of. the moor ings. In the course of the forenoon of yesterday the wind graitially freshened up from the eastward, until it blew almost a gale. About two o'clock a very heavy squall from the E.N.E. came in full force on the port bow of the huge ship, and there being a strong flood tide caused 'an immense strain on the mooring chains. The chain on the p :rt bow first went, a link breaking some dozen feet from the hawse bole, and this bring an in creased pressure on the other two, moorings the bow (sten)) chain went. The wind and strong flood which swept up the Reach caused the forward.,v4rstof the ship to incline towards the • Deptford shore. 'Mr. Drowse, the officer who was in charge of the vessel, Capt. liar. rison being absent on leave, immediately adopted every precaution to secure and protect the ship. Some steam ers which. lay between the Leviathan and the shor,, llA9bi-ited in checking the canting of the bow of the ship inwards. Wittt.all expedition a large hawser wns laic out to the Dreadnought, and three powerful steam-tuge were brought to bear on the port bow in hauling the skip into her former position. Fortunately the equal' was of short duration, but the weather continued bole terous, and the tugs were engaged until late in the even ing in keeping the bow out, when the steamer was again secured by additional chains front Brown and Lenox, and the Thames Conservancy depot. The Leviathan has - sustained not the least. injury, and, as far as we could learn, none of the vessels that were lying inside her were damaged, with the exception of the stern of a dumb lighter being stove in. As a matter of precaution it was deemed prudent to have one or two of the tugs in attendance during the night, the weather continuing un favourable. Itshould be stated that themoorings at the stern remained firm. RECRUITING IN CANADA FOR THE BRITISH Aitfiv.— An extra official Gazette of Wednesday states that the Queen has been pleased to approve the raising of a regi ment in Canada, consistin of 1,000 rank and - file, to b e called the " 100th, or P rince of Wales's Regiment." London, Niagara, Toronto, Kingston, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec have been appointed depots for the inspec tion and reception of recruits for this regiment. No au thority is given to enlist or procure recruits beyond the borders of the dominions of the Queen ; and any bargain, promise, or agreement made without these provinces will not be respected. This shows the determination of the Imperial Government not to incur the risk of any new enlistment difficulty with the United States ; but if Americans come here of their own free will for the pur pose of enlisting, we see nothing to prevent their doing so. Commissions in this new regitient will be granted without purchase to one major, six captains, and eight lieutenants. TheFe commissions will be granted, on certain conditions, to residents of Canada who have already served in the army, or who may be in the receipt of half pay. The fitness of the applicants for these commissions is to be attested by a board of officers who are to meet at Montreal, and every applicant certi fied by them h to be approved and recommended by the Governor-General. Though the commissions are not t be paid for in money, they are virtually to be paid for to men. To entitle any one to receive a major's com mission he must previously have brought to some one of the recruiting depots 200 men, who have passed an examination. A captain's commission is, in like man ner, vatted at 80 men, and a lieutenant's at 40. The Prince of Wales, however, as General commanding-In chief, has authorised the Governor-General to recom mend a limited number 'of gentlemen, residing in Canada, for commissions, with or without purcba.e, 'at the discre tion of his R wyal Highness. A bounty of $3 is to be given to each recruit, with a complete kit of necegsariee. This is teo small to prove any temptation, but there is little doubt that recruits will be found easily enough. The present condition of stagr.ation, both in this pro vince and in the United States, is eminently favourable to recruiting, and will of i'self be sufficient to insure tiae success of the attempt.—Quebec Gazette, March 8. [ADVERTISEMENT.I—The possibility of abandoning medicine altogether is shown by the numerous extraordinary cures, without medicine, of indigestion (dyspepsia), flatulency, con stipation, nervous, bilious, and liver complaints, cough, asthma, consumption, and debility, effected by Dn Barry's delicious Health - restoring Revalenta Arabica Food. The following are not tne least remarkable : - Clunbury, Shropshire, Dec. 22, 1856.—Gentlemen,--Being one of your greatest debtors in respect to the Revalenta Arabica, I beg to offer you my testimony in its favour. For many years I suffered severely from chronic rheumatism, which at length produced a complication of nervous diseases that made me perfectlymiserable. The most approved reme dies in medicine and diet were had recourse to in vain, the faculty of digestion was brought to a complete stand-still, and death must apparently have soon resulted had not my attention been providentially drawn to the Revalenta Ara bica. The very satisfactory character of the testimonials induced me to make a trial of it ; even within a few days after I commenced using it some of the worst symptoms were so much subdued as to enable me to take a sufficient quantity of food and drink without any injurious consequences. This I had not been able to do for four years previously, and dur ing the last two months of this time not in any measure ex cept at the imminent risk of my life, though the greatest care was used ill the selection of what was taken; sleep had, nearly forsaken me, this has now been restored to me, and I am now, after having taken the Revalenta for some time, able to perform those functions of animal life which before had been nearly suspended in me. I have seen it produce equally good effects in other cases among some of my friends to whom I have recommended it, but to ex plain all the benefit which I have received from it would be to fill a pamphlet.—l am, &c., JAMES CHAPMAN.

The loving cup having been circulated round the hall, - The LORD MAYOR gave " The health of the Queen," which was received with the warmest loyalty. " The health of the Prince Consort, of the Prince of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family," was next proposed, and elicited similar demonstrations from the assembly. "The Bishops and Clergy of the Established Church" followed, and was briefly acknowledged by the Bishop of Bath and Wells. The LORD MAYOR, in introducing the toast of " The Army and Navy," expressed his gratification at the presence that evening of his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief. The illustrious duke was well known, as the friend of the soldier, whose con dition he had endeavoured to ameliorate ; and there was not a grievance in the army brought before him into which he did not institute an immediate inquiry. There could scarcely be a person in that room who had not some relative or friend who had either bled or fallen in the service of his country, or achieved immortal fame in the ranks of the army; and they all knew that neither branch of the service cared how numerous or how powerful their ene mies were, but only longed for an opportunity of displaying their prowess and intrepidity. (Cheers.) The Duke of CANEBRIDGR, in returning thanks, said—l assure your lordship and this company that I conceive it to be a distinguished honour ;o have one's name coupled with that of the British Army. Without any disparagement to o . her armies, I sincerely believe that there are no troops in the world so willing and anxious to perform their duty by . their country as the British army. (Csieers.) I have personally had a brief experience of what that army can ach eve ; and the accounts which we almost daily receive from a dista n t Iliad convince us that at this moment the army of England is nobly and efficiently discharging its duty. (Cheers.) To be honoured by a great and influenti id society like that which this great city represents must be warmly felt by the army, as it would be felt by any other portion of the community. And I can assure you, gentlemen, that in far-distant lauds it is always a source of pride and gratification to. our gallant troops, especially when their services are called into daily and almost hourly requisition, to know that th4r exertions are appreciated by the people of England. (Hear.) Believe me that compliments such as these are not thrown away, but are highly and dearly prized, and I am glad to know that such is, as I trust it ever will be, the sentiment of the British soldier. (Cheers.) It is not long since we imagined that the services of the army or the navy would not again be required. It is not necessary to remind this company h ow wofully that hope has been disappointed. When I had an opportunity only a rear ago of alluding in this hall to that subject, I certainly little dreamt of what was about to befall us within a few short months. We had then come out of a great and most important war, in which our army had greatly dis tinguished itself. Soon afterwards—when least ex pected, I believe, byany maa here present, or in this country, wefound ourselves surrounded by immense difficulties, and in the midst of a vast catastrophe. k Thanks to the bravery and valour of our troops, as forlor Od Od Od 's 01 NAN& Od 2d Oil 2 sold l sold i sold i sold 12t128 l2ti, 8 care, of a 1.
