BY SAMUEL LAIIERT, M.D., 87, BEDFORD SQUARE. LONDON, i atlictilated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of A pothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. _ The essential object of this treat•se is to point out the fearful con "el:Mentes resulting from certain babas, 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 rarticularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of th eir physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the hAnith, happiness, and privileges io which every human being is entitled. It Is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are Dinciples of personal management which cannot be violated with oat incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue • ceed - the heyday of inconsiderate selr-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 cannogapply a cure.

LOYAL THAMES YACHT CUM The opening match of the season took place on Saturday between cuttera of the first and second class. The prize for the former was of the value of 1001., and for the latter 401., the course from Erith round the Nore Light Vessel slid back, half a minute Ittit -- ger tort al Intred ft) rd,EferAnice of tonnige izt each clas?. At 10 o'clock thti steamer Prince of Wales, whkh was engaged for the accommodation of the members of the club and their friends, le London bridge, having on board Lord Alfred Paget, the Commodot e, and a large party of ladies and gentl,,- men. The broad pennant of the Commodore was carried at the main, and the French and Sardinian ensigns were hoisted at the fore, in compliment to the imperial and royal patrons of the club. On the arrival of the steamer at Erith the following ware found moored in two lines ready for the start : First Class, exceeding 35 tons. Name. Tons. Port. . Owner. Amazon ...... 46 London J. H. Johnson, Esq. Extravaganza 49 Poole Sir Percy P. Shelley, Bart. Avalon 3B London... R. Pavis Monk, Esq. Cymba 53 London... T. Brassey, jun., Esq. Second Class, exceeding 20 and not excarming 35 tons. Phantom 27 London... T. LaiH, Emmet The Firtfly, Sir H. Dalrymple, Bart., was also entered for the second class, but d'cl not make her appearance. There was a stiff breeze from the south-west, affording every probability of a good race. The Amazon was the favourite in the first class, althouyh some excected a good deal from the Cymba ; slit. has lately been altered, ar:d had a new set of sails ; but it was generally believed that hav ing been only a short time afloat, she had scarcely got into trim. In the second class the impression was that the Phantom would add another to her many triumphs, especially as she was to receive two minutes and a half from her antagonist. At llh. 35m. the gun for the start was fired. The Emmet was the first to get away, followed by the Phantom. Of the large boats the Avalon was the quickest in getting rcuuJ, the Extrava2anza, second, the Ama zon neatly as smart ; the Cymba was, however, a long time before she got fairly under weigh. They all started raider three sails, but running down Sea Reach the large yachts set their g •ff , opsails, an example which was afterwards followed by the Emmet for a short time. From the direction of the wind, it was a clear run alt the way down. Very soon after starting, the Amazon drew ahead of the Extravaganza and Avalon, and attAin ed the lead, which she maintained and gradually increased for the rest of the race. Below Purfleet. the Cyrnba ' passed the Avalon, and drew up to , he Ex r.i vaganza ; there was then a beaut ful race be tween the two, and s tme capital manoeuvring to obtain th e w e ather gauge ; it was not until they had reached Gravesend. that the Cymba was able to get to windward of her antagonist ; she then headed her, and there was no other change in the relative position of the first-class vessels during the race ; the Extravaganza occasionally gained a little on the Cymba, but was never able actually to overhaul her. During the run down the Amazon increases her lead, so much so as to make the race a certainty uu'ess an accident occurred. The second-class had been passed by all the large ones before they reached Northfleet. The Emmet con tinued to lead ; off Grays the Phantom made a gal lant effort, and for some short time had her bow 2 sprit over her opponent's quarter, but the Emmet crept away again and continued to keep the lead. The yachts passed the Nore Light ship at the fol lowing time : 11. M. L. 1 51 15 1 55 :;0 1 56 15 1 59 20 2 0 40 2 1 25 During the run down Sea Reach the wind was so fresh that they were all obliged to send down their gaff topsails and topmasts ; and as they a pproached the Nore they shifted jibs and made prepatation for the beat home. The wind being so much from the southward, they were enabled to make a long board up to the Lower Hope ; but from thence it was a dead beat up. After they had pa=sed the Nore there could be no doubt as to the winner of the first prize, and the interest was directed rather to the se owl clasq, in which the issue was very doubtful. The Emmet had to allow 2i minutes, but as she rounded the light she was only three q- u.trt , rs of a minute a - head o f th 3 Phantom. After steaming slowly up to Gravesend, the steamer went on to Err h, and then anchored to -Await the arrival of the yachts. They passed the flag in the following order : S. Amazon 5 13 15 Cymba Extravaganza Avalon 5 30 0 Eintnet Phautom The Amazon and the Emmet were thus the win ners of the prizes in their respective classes ; as the latter passed the flag her competitor, the Phantom, was sem close bc , hit7d, and for the three minutes that intervened until her arrival the interest was intense. T2e race was doubtful aim• st to the last moment, and eventually was only gained and Ica - -- _ € ) LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 2 , 1,, 1858. LONDON and NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY—WHITSUNTIDE HOLIDAYS.

On Saturday an inspection - of the troops belong ing to the East India depots, comprising the Ist and 2d battalions of infantry, at Chatham, took place at that garrison, by Col. IL Jervis, com manding the Ist battalion, and Col. R. N. Phillips, in command of the 2d battalion. The troops, to the number of about 2,500 men of all ranks, were drawn up on their general parade-ground in heavy marching order, when the depots of the 2d batta lion were marched to the inner lines, where they marched past m slow and quick time, and ere cut 'd a few other manoeuvres, the whole of which, notwithstanding that the majority of the troops on the groundwere young soldiers, were performed with great steadiness and precision. The depots attached to the Ist battalion went through simi!ar evolutipns on their - parade-ground under the direction of their, commandant, Col. Jervis. These inspections will be repeated at frequent in tervals, in order to make the troops thoroughly efficient before embarking for India in July, by which period it is calculated there will be nearly 5,000 troops at Chatham garrison ready for embar cation. The officers belonging to various regiments who have been sent to Chathani for the purpose of being attached to the East India depots at that garrison have received directions to attend, when not en gaged on other duty, the pa)Paelerfaif , the Royal En gineers at Brompton Barrgeks, at 9 and 1 o'clock each day, for the purpose of being instrucied, with the 6fficers and men of the Royal Sappers and Miners, in the fi Ilworks and other engi neering operations carried out by the troops belonging to that branch •of the service, under the direction of Col. H. Sandham, Director of the Royal Engineer Establishment at Chatham. The in , •nster wrought-iron gun manufactured at the Mt-rsey Steel and Iron works, and presented by Messrs. Horsfall and Co. to the nation, after remaining out of sight and almost out of mind at Shoeburyness since its removal there, is, we are informed, about to be placed in a suitable position in the fortifications at Portsmouth. Lord Lovaine, one of the members of the Ad miralty, visited Woolwich Dockyard on Saturday and inspect,d the vessels in basin and those now building, accompanied by the commodore super intendent of the establishment. His lordship also visited the Royal marine barracks and tie site se lected for the new hosoi'al. By or er of the Lords Commissioners of the Board of Admiralty the following officers have been appointed to take into their immediate considera tion the best method of clothing the seamen of the British service, and to report on the same :—Capt. Sydney C. Dacres, C. 8., superintendent of Haslar Hospital ; Capt. G. H. Seymour, C. 8., aide-de camp to the Queen, flag captain of the Victory, 101; Capt. Lord F. Kerr, of the Marlb liroug h, 131, screw; and Capt. R. Harris, of the naval cadet training ship Illustrious. The meetingS will take place forthwith in a room appropriated at the Royal Clarence Victualling depart men t, From an Admiralty return just i.- - sued, it appears that the number of continuous service men who accepted their discharge from the navy, under the Admiralty circular older of the 13th of May, 1857, permitting them to be discharge withiart purchase, was 2,28 G. The numl - mr of the same who re-entered the navy for five years, as non -continuous service men, during the operation of the said circular order, was 63. Tbe Lards of the Admiralty issued orders on Sa turday for the whole of the ships now under fitment at the several dockyards to be got ready for sea with all expedition ; the whole of the steam squadron of reserve, including the Majestic, 80 ; Colossus, 80 ; Hero, 91.; Terrib'e, 21 ; and Ena?rald, 51, at Sheerness ; an d th e Cle-ssy, 91, and Boyal George, 10 9 , and sundry gun-boats are ordered to be got ready with all expedition. Orders were also issued fn - able and ordinary seamen to be entered at the several rendezvous and guard-chips, and naval pen sioner:7, who will pass surgical examination, are to be taken on fir further service. At the various dockyards great activity prevails in getting the screw ships of the line and other vessels ready for this great naval demonstration. The whole of the ves sels are <:.xpected to concentrate in the Downs about the same time that_ thei..great,i4'bwokpAy4 araw moist will rendezvous a-*lierbpur t . - --- Tht) Agamemnon, 91, :screw, -was taken oat of Keyham-basin on Thursday, and moored in the harbour.

THE LATE DtrEL AT PARIS. The editor of the Figaro has sent the following letter to the editor of 'he Nord : "My dear Sir,---The Nord of the 19th of May in its account of th e d uel of my friend and collaliora tor, M. Henri de Pane, says that my interview with his Excellency the Minister of Justice has been variously appreciated. "As the most upright intentions are open to false interpretations, I shall feel much obliged to you if you will insert these few lines to explain the object I had in view in the step I took under the melancholy circumstances. "1 did not ask for an interview to lodge a com plaint on account of the d.ploraVe incidents which aro connected with the second duel of M. de Pene, because magistrates in F rance are aware o f the duties they have to fulfil without need of admoni tion. " I never for a m unent doubted that full justice would be renderet My visit to the Keeper of the Seals was made with another object in view. "On arriving at Paris from Blois, after this la mentable affair, I found much excitement. I found various letters addressed to me by men who emu lated each other in offers to avenge our lost com rade. Many other persons sent their cards to the office of the Figaro with the same intentions ; all ex pressed thesatne d'sgust at thesocond duel, knowing well that a blow was not necessary to compel M. de Pane to fight a second duel. O n the other hand, it has been stated that after a warm discussion on the topic which still excites Paris another duel was to take place between M. de Pommereux and M. de Gallifet. "Feeling the gravity of the circumstance„ I felt it my duty to call upon the Minister of Justice to assure him that I should d o everything in my power to prevent further bloodshed. ‘c The excitement in the public mind was such that a prompt explanation Was necessary. lat once published an extra sheet in explanation, the mode ration of which I hope all honourable men will approve. "I have endeavoured especially to show that the army is not responsible for the acts of one of its members. " In support of this i lea I have published a letter from two officers in the Guides, MM. Grangier and Commin , 2es, and I adverted to the courteous con duct cf M. Courtiel, the first opponent of M. de Pone. " One word more. The. Nord says that my friend M. de Ilene was the victim of the duties which a c?rtain portion of the press imposes upon its con tributors. French journalists never needed to be reminded of courage. Duels are not confined to the lesser journals. I may mention those of Armand Carrel, of Dujarrier, and Amedee Achard. I only men tion three—l could mention 30.—1 am, &c., " H. DE VII,LEBIESSANT." In reply . t) the above letter the Editor of the Nord s ►ys :—" We have only a - word to, faY in reply, which is, M. de Villemessant has misuncler stood•our meaning: When we said M. de Pens was the victim of the duties which a certain por tion of the preis imposes upon its contributors, we meant to say that he was the victitnn - of the obliga tion of the necessity of the coutr butors to such a paper to make a joke at the expebse of others at the risk of a disagreeable result. Between the meaning of our words and that of M. de Videmes sant there is the same difference as between the causes and the character of the duel of M. de Pere and the causes and character of the duels alluded to by the editor of the Figaro." IRELAND. DUBLIN, SATURDAY. THE LThLERICIL ELECTION. Travellers from Cockneydown have written arid declared before now that Ireland was a strange, a passing strange, country, to which'we might fairly add, and the strangest and most unintelligible part of it is Limerick. It is positively more so than Gal way, which no living man understands. That which holds good in every place else does not, as a matter of course, apply to the " city of the violated treaty." This week the free and independent burgesses sell their votes to Major Gavin as the highest bidder ; next week they will repudiate the "filthy lucre," and liy theiffitinchises; at the feet of Bishop Ryan and his priests ; and the following week, the de nounced Protestant candidate, who dared not show in the streets when Gavin was "up," whose sup porters were beaten and bruised, whose hous,s were wrecked and property destroyed, will sud denly become the favourite of all classes and creeds, showing such an appearance of strength that the pet of a little fortnight previously must retire without striking another blow or polling. a in in .against him. If any one had prognosticated all this at the ' commencement of the present month he would have been laughed at. Yet so it has turned out. Mr. Spaight, a Protestant and Conservative, now occupies the seat lately held by Major Gavin. Mr. Bill did not show at the hustings. Yesterday morn ing his address of resignation was posted through Limerick. His reasons for abandoning the contest before it commenced are curious. He says— " Gentlemen ' —lt is now certain that on tomor row evening (Priday) the Government will an nounce the immediate dissolution of Parliament." A false prophet Mr. Ball has proved himself in this resp€ct. Let us see what more he has to say:— " Owing to a division in the Liberal ranks, a gentleman of Conservative opinion has come for ward as a candidate. I believe that he would not truly rep , - sent your principles, ant I think it un just that the C.,tholic majority of the electors should not have in Parliament one member able and willing to express their feeling and defend their rights." Yet the " Catholic rirjority " were ready to support this "gentleman of Conserva ive opinions" in preference to the pro-saintly personage who mo destly tells them he is able as well as willing to do so-an , !-si. Mr. Ball goes on to say— " I would oppose to the uttermost this attempt, if likely to be successful for more thug a few weeks, but I am convinced that iu so doinc , I should have your support ; the impending dboautiou has, how ever, altered the state of affairs." Spaiglit thus thanks the electors of Li merick : " For the overwhelming support I have received in the contest, now happily terminated, allow me to offer you my warmest thanks. Tuat this sup port emanated from men of all creeds, and of all classes, I can never forget ; and it shall ever be my earnest and anxious study to protect the various interests entrusted to my charge, and by my con duct as your represenrarive to merit the con,inu ance of the great confidence you have placed iu rue." Touching the election itself Mr. Spaight was ac companied to the Court-house of Limerick by two Roman Catholic clergymen (Messrs. O'Connor and Casey), Major Gavin, and upwards of 200 sup porters. Aft , 2r the usual foraialitie- , , M3jor Gavin, ex-.M. P., proposed Mr. Spaight as a proper candi date, Father Casey seconded the nomination. The redoubted Father Kenyon, of Young Ireland eelebrity, was next roposed and secolith , d, to give rTatititia— ortrtlfitifto.o6ttrii dAltd* his usual force z'His reverea.a.titteVeaNiiaili , Ball as a time-serving trader in politics, who thought to obtain the votes of the electors by ap pealing to their religious feelings. He (Fa'her Kenyon) conceived that the spiritual interests of the people night be p'wed in better hands than. thos.i who had professed a desire to get hold of them. His reverence then withdrew in favour of Mr. Spaight, who was declared duly erected. The following passage is from a doll ul article in the Limerick elm rtc i• :—" Thus 11.,s terminated the drama of which for the last four men , hs Lime . rick has been the arena, and in which men have been pitted in fratricidal strife, in which frend has ' been separated from friend, brother from brother, priest from priest, and which resulted, as we always foretold with just accuracy, in the existing position of the Catholic body and the utter prostration of the great united Liberal party in the ancient city of the treaty." RIBBON ISM . On Wedneeelay night ihe hotise of a h er d i n th e employment of George N. Purdon, Esq., of Lis nabin Castle, county Westmeatb, was m a li c i ous l y destroyed by fire. A few nights previously a similar outrage was perpetrated at Corbetstown, iu the same barony. A meeting of the local m ag i s:racy was held yesterday to consider the most advisable measures to check the progress of Ribboniim, and, if possible, to bring the parties concerned in these burnings to justice. HOLIDAYS. It is a matter of notoriety that there aro more holidays, saints' days, and idle days in Ireland than in any other country in Europe, saving probably the Roman and Neapolitan state 9. That these clAys are scrupulously kept, as far as idleness can keep t hem, is, unfortunately for the people themselves, a patent fact. We have not, however, seen anything like the annexed resolution before. It the coopers of Cork adhere to the letter as well as the spirit of it, they will have at least 1.00 holidays in the year : At a general meeting of the Cork operative coopers held on the 11th inst., the following reso lution was unanimously agreed to :—Resolved— " That, deeming the practice of holiday breaking to be not only profitless but dem , rilising, we pledge ourselves, from Ist June next, to observe, as strictly as possible, the few days in the year which are or dered to be kept holy. Thereby affording ourselves an opportunity of complying with our religious duties, while the rational recreations which on those days we can enjoy will undoubtedly lead to our physical and social Advancement.

Much has been said and written as to the glut of labour in Australia, but this applies solely to Vic toria, and even in that colony it refers almost ex elusively to what may be termed effeminate labour —that is, those classes of persons who are more accustomed to office or in-door employment, but does not in any sense include those who occupy themselves in the search for, or iu the working of, mines. In Victoria and New South Wales there is, it is true, little more produced than the precious metal, but from South Australia we draw large supplies of rich copper, lead, and titi. In the two last-named colonies, where mining io its more ordinary sense is extensively prosecuted, there is a dearth, and not a glut, of mining labour —indeed, of every description of labour ; arid various localities well known to contain rich lodes of ores would be promptly opened up, if the sup ply of this description of labour were equal to the demand. We may add, from the letters which reach us tom the various mining districts in this country, it is evident there is a steady increase of mining lab )ur leaving our shore - 4. In fact, this is the natural consequence induced by the continual ~ rrivals of large amounts of the precious metal from Victoria and Sydney, and of rich copper and silver lead ore from South AustraLa—the resolt of un skilled mining with unskilled labour ; therefore, it becomes self-evident to experi-nced miners that they are certain to obtain immediate and lucratiVe - employment the moment they reach the mining localities of Australia. No discrimination is shown when allusion is made to c,ilonial labour by the general pre 3sin this country, which necessarily leads to misappreherpion in the minds of sonic who otherwise would emigrate ; for while there is a glut of one description, there is a groat dearth is another. Our AuAralian co7on'es are an illimitable field of mining enterprise, and with practical miners to, open up the various deposits of ores, and with a corresponding necessary amount of agri cultural and pastoral labour to supply the wants of others, it is evident that no glut of mining labour can exist for years to come, — Mining journal of May 22d.

But ours was a pleasing 'duty, for while the senseless and subservient organs of indi vidnals were howling wildly for the adoption• in India of the policy which rendered the reigns of El.zabeth and of James infamous in Ireland, some of the leading Irish members were conveying to us their personal thanks for giving expre 81011 to a public opinion on which they could fall back when pressed by the allied whip to join in the foray for wholesale eviction and confiscation in Oude. We believe that "the liberal cause never had so great an escape from so great a peril ; and it must be matter of pride to the men—to Bright and Gibson, and Gladstone and Graham—who had the courage to sever themselves from party whenits leaders aban doned Lruth and justice, and in the name of the country and of the sacred principles on which liberty is based, and the vigour to warn these leaders of the suicidal policy they were adopting, to find thesi, men, even at the last hour, yield before the force of truth, and abandon confiscation as untenable even in a British House of Commons, where it wa►s once the favourite dogma of a conquering race. But while, in o_lmmon with all sincere members of the great L'beral party, we rejoice at the defeat of the project by which the new alliance sought to en trap the Opposition into a retrograde policy, we cannot shut out from view the fact that this miser ablemovement has ended in a signal triumph for the Tory party. This, however, is the natural re sult of abandoning principle for selfish purposes. In their unwonhy haste to resume power, the aristo cratic leaders were ready to march their supporters through Coventry. Bu► their usual supporters, all honour to them, would not march for them ; and though by this spirited refusal the Liberal party has been saved from execration, the unprincipled attempt to make "confiscation" the rallying cry of Liberalism has given a triumph to the Tory party, and not only renewed their lease of office, but inspired them with a confidence which will embolden them to appeal to a wider public hereafter, and thus defer, no man can tell how long, the for mation of a really popular administration which will recognise the rights of the people, and adopt measures to secure them their liberties and their lands. NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, Saturday Night. The withdrawal of Mr. Cardwell's motion of cen sure on the Ministry in the House of Commons last night, lame and impotent as it is, has been re ceived with a tolerable amount of satisfaction, as t+-to I est for all partitv at the present moment. The whole affair has he , n considered by the men of the north as a mere faction fight, and as not re dounding to the credit of the House of Commons as ade iterative assembly. It has not added to the popularity of Lor.d Palmerston and his party down here; and if a dissolution had followed a defeat of the Ministry it is every way probable that, disgusted as the Liberals of the north are with Lord Palmereton's recent sut serviency to France, and his contemptuous abandonment of the unfor tunate engineers Watt and Park to the tender me• ties of the King of Naples, one or two at least cif our north-country borough Members who have supportei hitn would have lost their seats. There is every prospect down here that mere Whigs will go the *at' arthir mat - election, and that the cause of advanced liberalism will be sup ported by better men. It may be safely stated that the only circumstance that has left any profound im pre ision on the public mind during the Ereat dot tee is the rising power of the advanced liberal cause. A letter from one of the Liberal members, received in a neighbouring town this morning, states that the withdrawal of Mr. Cardwell's motion, showing that Lord Palmerston was abandoned by an influential section of the liberal party at the last moment, is considered oven more damaging to the prospects of the ex-Premier than if he had sustained a defeat. NOTTINGHAM, Saturday. The intelligence of the withdrawal of Mr. Card• well's motion was received by nearly all shades of political parties in this town with.unmixed satisfac tion. The course taken by the debate during the week was watched with great interest and anxiety, and the hollow treachery of the Palmerstonian fac tion completely seen through. As the debate pro ceeded there was less fear for the result of a divi sion ; and the damaging speech of Mr. Bright gave full assurauJe that the spirit of cabalism would be annihilated. The unprincipled opposition to the Government is deprecated by people here whose political creed is the reverse of Derbyism ; and it is some time since a victory, wising out of a discom fiture so complete and decisive, has yielded so entire a satisfaction as that which has just been achieved. SOUTHAMPTON, Saturday. The news of the withdrawal of Mr. Cardwell's motion was received here this morning with evident satisfaction by many of the chiefs of the Liberal party. A large number of Southampton Liberals disapproved of Lord Canning's proclamation, and approved of the principles enunciated in Lord Ellen borough's despatch, and they therefore were iudisuosed to see the present Government turned. out by means of Mr. Cardwell's resolution. The longer the debate continued the more an influential section of the Liberal party here saw with regret a struggle sor office on au Indian question. ATTEMPTED MUIIDEIt AN!) SUICIDE AT BE rUN AL-GR BEN. ---, On Saturday afternoon, shortly before three o'clock, considerable excitement was created among the inhabitants of Bethnal-green, in consequence of a most determined attempt at murder, and the sui cide of Mr. Aifred Pun, aged 38 years, rope maker, &c., of 51, Church-street, Bethnal-green, under the following shocking circumstances : It appears that the deceased had been placed in business by the kind interference of his uncle, but for some time past he had lived on very unhappy terms with his wife. A short time since he borrowed 160/. of his uncle, and the same day be absented himself from home, and it was ascertained that the deceased was squandering the money away in reck less dissipation. Ou Thunday last he went to the shop in Church•street in a state of great excitement with a shoemaker's knife, which he held in his hand, and threatened to take the life of his wife. The constable on the beat and several of the neighbours interpieed, when ho left the place. On Friday he epeated his conduct, and on Saturday afternoon, at the time before named, deceased ran into the shop, where his wife was engaged behind the coun ter. said, He spoke to her in very violent l anguage , an d ,‘ What are they going to d o w ith me 1" Sh e replied, " I believe uo arrangement has been made yet." lie then pulled a razor from hi s coa t poc k et and said, " I will kill you. She ran terrified into the back parlour, followed by deceased; who was brandishing the weapon as ho pursued her. She suc ceeded in reaching the woikslaop, made her ese and raised au alarm, when se vera l persons entered the the shop and met deceased, who walked to the front door, where he held out the open razor, and ex claimedyou co nydoucrustelnety, to a man, " Will " No, doi a t throat ?"

A police constable of the 11 division, who had ben attracted to the spot, caught the deceased as he was about to frill upon the pevement. The deceased never spoke afterwards, and became totally insensible, while the blood flowed copiously from the wound. The constable called for a cloth to stop the hemorrhage, and assistance being procured deceased was placed on a shutter, and conveyed to the London Hospi tal, where he was immediately examined by Mr. Birtwhistle, the bone surgeon, who pronounced life to be extinct.
