In kindly spirit, herein counsel's giv'n, How health, how hope;• how happiness to gain." 3. WHAT to EAT, BRINK, and AVOID With Diet Tables for all Complaints. Contents :—How to ensure perfeet digestion, tranquil eelings, a good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob servance of the instructions herein contained .the feeble, the ner cously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire he greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health thll threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although hearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithful)) , imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the lip e advantages on our offspring to follow-, and finally by the cultivation )f our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations. The author's justification for this seaming eulogy of his own writ ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.

A meeting of noblemen, Members of Parliament, clergymen, physicians, surgeons, and gentlemen distin guished for their services in the advancement of science and philanthropy, was recently held at the mansion of the Earl of Ducie, No. 23, Belgrave-square, for the purpose of taking measures to establish an institution, by means of which the benefit of mesmerism, in the cure of diseases, and the prevention of pain under surgical operations, should be more'widely extended to the poorer classes, than they could be by individual exertion. The meeting, " being convinced of the vast benefits derived from mesmerism," came to the following resolutions:— " 1. That a Mesmeric Infirmary shall be established by voluntary contribution, for the cure of diseases, and ;he prevention of pain in surgical operations. "2. That this infirmary shall be under the manage ment of a president, vice-presidents, trustees, a treasurer, secretary, and committee." The Right Hon. the Earl of Ducie was elected presi • dent; the Baron de Goldsmid. Viscount Morpeth, M.P., R. Monckton Milnes, Esq., M P , J. H. Langston, Esq., M.P., the Rev. J. Sanbv, jun., and the Rev. T. Robert son, vice-presidents ; Mr. Briggs, treasurer; and Dr , . Ashburner, Buxton, and Elliotson; Surgeons Clarke, Chandler, Flintoff, J. Hands, D. Hands, F. G. Johnston, and Symes ; the Rev. Dr. Dickson, War Buckley, Captain James, Messrs. Blyth, Fradelle, Kingdom, and Topham, were appointed as the committee. A sum, amcunting to several hundred pounds, was subscribed ; to which the Earl of Ducie. the Baron de Goldsmid, Lord Morpeth, and Mr. Langston con tributed 100/. each ; Mr. T. Lamie Murray, George street, Hanover-square, and Dr. Elliotson, 501. each ; Mr. Kingdom, Wrstbourne terrace, Hyde Park, 211., with 5/. ss. annual subscription. The other donations and subscriptions varied from ten guineas to one. The immediate cause of this infirmary being founded under such high patronage, may perhaps be found in the letter addressettin April last, by the Treasurer of the new charity, Mr. Briggs, to the S . .?cretary of the Mid dlesex Hospital, and published in the last number o' the " Zoist," with a narrative of the cases referred to, and of the subsequent treatment experienced by that benevolent gentleman, at the hands of the pseudo-magnates of' the medical profession, who, in his instance, surpassed their ordinary displays of presuming ignorance and dogmatic insolence. Mr. Briggs having received, as a governor of the Middlesex Hospital, the usual invitation to attend the annual dinner, declined to do so in a courteous, but very earnest letter, in which he referred to particular c'lses of happy cure effected through mesmeric agency at his expense, and evidently with the knowledge of the anti-mesmeric savans in that hospital, in whose hands the patients so rescued by his zeal and charity had lingered for years in torture and despair, under the severest physicing administered, and amputation executed (as the event proved) without cause. He recommended that mesmerism, which had effected so much in those cases, should be tried upon some others which he proposed. He was answered that " mesmerism was not orthodox." He referred to the many undoubted operations lately performed without pain. (Those performed at Cherbourg, Leicester, Not tingham, and various places in America and the West Indies, are too well authenticated for any reasonable man to doubt.) He referred especially to the cases of Dr. Esdale, of the East India Government's civil staff, which have occurred, and been presented to the world under such circumstances and with such authority, that Dr. Esdaile, on his departure from Hooghley, left after him a MESMERIC STAFF, paid by the Government. When the engagements with the Sikhs threw 3,000 men on the army surgeons, the civil surgeons were ordered to join the army, and Dr. Esdaile was called away. But he had in the previous eight months performed seventy-three severe operations without pain, and with healing results; such as rarely (if ever) are found to follow similar opera tions performed in a non-mesmeric state. This success was rightly viewed by the authorities of India as too important and encouraging not to be followed up. Life is too valuable in their service to be sported with for the sneers of a fashionable, but unbred and unread " doctor," or the jests of a witty surgeon, who tests the sensibility of a patient by tearing the skin from her hand with his nails. The example of India will shortly be followed up at home. One of Dr. Esdaile's cases was the re moval of a scrotal tumour, weighing forty pounds. During the operation the man remained as motionless as a corpse ! Mr. BRIGGS bad evinced his good will to the Middle sex Hospital by subscribing to it for many years, and inserting in his will a handsome legacy to it ; but as he could not afford to subscribe to that, and, at the same time, pay for mesmerising the poor, be was compelled to make a choice between the two. It was the conduct of the managers of the public hos pitals on this and similar occasions, which seems to have convinced the founders of the Mesmeric Infirmary, that it was necessary to delay no longer the establishment of such an institution.

The Select Committee of 1835, appointed to consider the best mode c. f warming and ventilating the new Houses of Parliameot, and of rendering the same favour able to the transmission of sound, recommended, in the first place, the experiment made in the House of Com mons, and also specially recommended that some plan for warming and ventilating should be systematically adopted, before the commencement of the new buildings, stating that provision should be made for it in the first instance by the architect, so as not only to'.insure its succees, but to prevent needless expense and incon venience. Mr. Barry not only commenced the work, but built the vaults of the river front from end to end, under all the libraries and committee rooms, without any plan for ventilation being either considered or adopted ; and although he agreed at the earlier pro ceedings with Dr. Reid, that the necessary channels and chambers should be provided there, successive alteralions in plans he at first agreed to were made at his request (of which the evidence may be seen in the works, as well as in recorded investigations), and these contemplated everything required there. Dr. Reid's attendance in I.ondon commenced in May, 1840. State ments and questions by Mr. Barry, in 1845, would lead any one to believe that the appointment was given to him in consequence of undue-influence exerted in his favour, and in opposition to Mr. Barry's views. This is no the fact, as is proved by a letter from the Hon. C. Gore, one of the Commissioners of her Majesty's Woods, &c. A minute inspection of the site of the new Houses, and of the obstacles to the introduction and supply of fresh air, led Dr. Reid to propose a peculiar series of arrangements, in addition to those required for the venti lation of all principal apartments. It was in the option of the architect to enter into these new arrange ments, or to decline them, when each House would have been treated as if no other existed in the building. He entered into the views proposed ;he stated in a letter that he saw no practical nor other ob stacle to their application. He was then the architect, as now, responsible for the construction of the building. He now objects to plans he was the means of authoris ing, at the very time when he still records his anxiety that the central tower proposed by Dr. Reid should be retained for architectural purposes. Dr. Reid's plans were presented to the architect in April, 1841, but were not finally adopted till August, 1842. Mr. Barry could have objected to these plans at any time between his first application to Government for Dr. Reid's assistance, and the final decision of I the Committee of both Houses in 1842. But though examined repeatedly before Committees of both Houses both in 1841, 1842, 1843, and in 1844, when he never said one word either against him personally or against his plans, he tried to impress his witnesses and Mr. Gwilt, the referee in 1845, with the idea that Dr. Reid's services had been thrown upon him without his knowledge and against his consent. In the following year, 1842, great difficulties, which had occurred from the commencement in procuring sa tisfactory information from the architect, led Dr. Reid to address two letters to him, which have been re corded in evidence before a Committee of the House of Commons. In 1844 it was represented by Dr. Reid to the Com mittee of the House of Commons, of which the Earl of Lincoln was Chairman (at that time Chief Commis. sioner of Woods and Forests), that the architect was proceeding in opposition to the report of the Committee in 1835, and to his own evidence of a more recent date before the Parliamentary Committees. In the beginning of 1345, Dr. Reid reported to the office of Woods the differences that had occurred with the architect at the temporary committee-rooms ; the progress of the session proved prscticilly the extent to which imperfectly closed drains below (and open gas pipes), and tarry roofs above, destroyed the ventilati n. He appeals to Sir R. H. Inglis, Mr. Hawes, Mr. Card well, and other Members of the House of Commons, who are aware of the effect produced by some of these causes, as to their influence on the atmosphere of the com mittee-rooms. In the same year the atmosphere supplied to both Houses was severely affected by circumstances not under Dr. Reid's control, some of which are detailed in a lithographic print referring to this matter. In April of the same year Mr. Barry opened a corres pondence on a point connected with the fire-proofing, founding his observations on a reported conversation be tween two gentlemen in his office and Dr. Reid. The evidence subsequently laid before Mr. Gwilt, proved that Mr. Barry and one of the parties in question bad dis cussed, and were perfectly aware, two years previously, of a difficulty of construction which they now for the first time attempted to fix on him. Dr. Reid then recommended that the system of com munication between the architect and himself should be made the subject of inquiry. Since that period. May, 1845, the works have ad vanced without any intermediate party to adjust dif ferences, or to arrange temporarily any plan for the re•noval of immediate difficulties ; passive and active resistance in every shape and form has interfered with the advantageous application of the plans for warming and ventilating. A document both unjust and most inaccurate was transmitted by the architect to the of fice of Woods, of which Dr. Reid was ignorant, and which must have seriously injured his position. And while inquiries have been conducted in a manner which have deprived him of the opportunity of bringing out the essential features of the case, the course taken has tended to injure the ventillation of both Houses, and to multiply difficulties that ought never to have existed. In addition to those that have arisen from the course adopted by some of the parties, the architect has thought proper to place between himself and Dr. Reid, fifteen months have now elapsed since Mr. Barry and Dr. Reid have had any meeting for any useful or practical pur pose, and the determination of numerous points on warm ing, lighting, and ventilating have been accordingly re tarded or suspended. Thus facilities have not been eiv4.n, on the faith of which, as recorded in the official letters of 1840, Dr. Reid undertook his present engage ment. The works, as well as official documents, pro ve the endless alterations made by the architect, with which he has had to contend ; and, in short, the business of the works, for the last eighteen months more especially, have been conducted practically, in a manner hostile to his plans, and destructive of any fair opportunity of satisfactorily adjusting his arrangements. (Signed) D. B. REID. Ventilating-office, House of Commons, July 20, 1846. THE LATE CASE OF MILIT kRY FLOGGING.—A correspondent of the Northampton Mercury gives the follow ing particulars of the late unfortunate soldier, Frederick White, of the 7th Hussars :—" I knew him when a boy; and we grew up together, and continued friends and companions till his father Wa3 compelled to leave his situation as postmaster at Nottingham. After leaving the academy in Toll-street, Not tingham, still conducted by Mr. Roper (where he met with some of the most respectable families of the town, and one who is now an aisle barrister,) he was apprenticed to Messrs. Barker and Adams, wholesale hosiers. I believe he con tinued es ith them about two or three years ; and about the same time that his parents had to give up all they possessed, the above house either stopped or decreased its hands ; poor White was then out of employ ment, and he tried in vain to obtain a situation in the town. He stayed however about Nottingham some time, and was supported by his friends who knew him in better times. I recollect the night before he left the town ; he was then going to London, where he expected he should find friends who knew his parents, and who, he confidently said, would get him a good berth—a situa tion under Government, or in the East India Company's service. He went, and met with repeated disappoint ments, till he was driven to enlist in the 2d Life Guards. He did not remain long in this regiment. He met with an accident—put his arm or his shoulder out, and was divherged as being unfit for service. After this he was in the London police, and was one of that body which was sent to Birmingham to quell the riots there in 1840. At this town, be tells me in a letter, that he enli,te d had letters the 7th Hussars, being in liquor at the time. I letters after this from Nottingham, Leeds, Bir mingham, extracts from which I beg to give. an d e, e t er s As an apology for not answering one o sooner, he states, •' I intended to have written tt n e n y to lt you as soon as I arrived at Birmingham, but almost directly after I came here I w as taken ill and poked into the hospital, and to obtain money or paper there was out of the question " Is not this an answer with respect t o what the adjutant said on the inquest ? His friends had not been written to, nor did they know where to write ; at least so it appears to me. In another part of the pleasure that my wild oat s have f letter, showing h e s y a o y u s , pro duced a good crop after all' I have not heard from him since February, 1845. He was a tall, rather slender young man ; and rremember when he was about seventeen years of age, he stood nearly six feet high. He was of a kind, affable disposition, gentlemanly in hia deport ment, and respected by all who knew him. In conclu sion, Sir, I beg to deny that he was destitute of friends; there are gentlemen now filling high stations in so ciety, in Nottingham, London, and Sussex, who were his friends and companions, and would, like myself, have served h:rn to the utmost of their ability, had they but known. Sir, I cannot, as a friend and companion in boyhood and man hood of the deceased, refrain from raising my voice against the brutal use of the lash to any of her Majesty's subjects, more particularly to those brave men who defend our land." [ADVERTISEMENT.] The following extraordinary case, as connected with HOLLOWAY'S PILLS, cannot be made too pablic :—George Wright, of high-street, Vauxhall, well known at 11111's Potteries, Vauxhall-walk, where he formerly worked during ten years, but for the last five his health had been so bad that he could do nothing, being greatly emaciated, suffering from a diseased kver, and also the dropsy, besides an affection of the spine. He was n the hospital at Winchester for five months, and afterwards in Westminster Hospital for three months knger. To sum up, from almost a dying state he has been restoreel to such comparative healtk and vigour, in the short space of five weeks, as to astonish al who know him, and this by Holloway's Pills, which may be had at l'ro fessor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand; and of all respect able medicine 'vendors throughout the civilised world.

This regatta, on Monday, amongst landsmen, in four-oared cutters, was unfortunately put an end to by a very lament able occurrence. The competitors in the first heat had rowed, and the three boats engaged in the second were in the heat of the race. when, in rounding at Southwark-bridge, blue, manned by Peacock, J. Hawkins, K. Morris, R. fiel loway, and J. Adams, touched another boat in advance of them, and went athwart one of the piers of the bridge. The boat immediately upset, and the whole party were immersed in the water. Every assistance was immediately afforded, and four of the rowers were rescued, but Hawkins met a watery grave. The managers immediately stopped the race, and discharged the band of musicians, and it was ar ranged, with one accord, that th e w h o l e o f the money which had been subscribed to be rowed for should be given to the widow of the unfortunate deceased, who has two , young children, and bears strong indications of being eliciente. The lamentable occurrence created a very considerable sensation in the neighbourhood. LAMBETH REGATTA.

Off the Horseferry pink rowed into a wager boat, by which means white got a good lead and kept it, winning by three lengths. Pink did their best to retrieve their accident. WOOLWICH REGATTA. The Woolwich Anti-Monopoly Free Watermen's Rowing Regatta, under the distinguished patronage of the Com mandant of the garrison, Major-General Sir Thomas Down man, C. 8., K.C.H., and the nobility and gentry of the vicinity, took place on Monday, under the management of Messrs. Thomas Weeks and James Bedwell, in the presence of a large assemblage of spectators of all ranks. There were sundry prizes contended for, but the grand heats were • for a new boat, value 26/., which was the first prize, the second man to receive 51, third 41., fourth 31. 35. fifth 21. 10s., sixth 1/. 10s. Th e di stance extended along the front of the It.yal Arsenal, and the heats were twice round the course. For the first heat the rowers were Charles Bow den, John Bryant, and George Field; for the second heat the competitors were Michael Dillon, James Baggett, and John Baggett. The second and third men of each division contended in the third heat; and in the fourth heat the first two men of the first and second heats contended with the first and second men of the third heat. Tre two first men of the fourth heat then rowed for the boat. This last was a very hard contest, and the prize boat was won by Bryant by only a boat's length, Bowden gaining the second prize. John Baggett won the third. After the race, which concluded at a late hour, the watermen were towed past the town in thn order in which they gained their prizes. PEDESTRIANISM. RACES AT WALWORTIL—The handicap race,. open to all England, to leap 12 hurdles in 440 yards, came off on M on d ay at the Beehive ground, in heats, v For the first, John Smith came in No. I, Charles Westhall 2, and George Martin 3; the other competitors, Nutt, of Leicester, and Williams, no where. For the second heat, which proved the final one s John Smith and George Martin alone started. It was a pretty race; the first, second, and third hurdles were taken almost together; at the fourth and fifth Smith had a trifling lead, but at the seventh and eighth, Martin not only col• hired him, but showed slightly in front; he did not, however, retain his forward position, and the following hurdles were gained by Smith before his light and youthful antagonist, who resigned so soon as they came into the level running. Mine host of the White Hart was consequently the winner of the gold watch, value 904 THE QUARTER OF A MII.E RACE.—For this prize, the "nen being handicapped, Charles Westhall started front the scratch, Brookson, having five yards' start, and Martin and Warwick ten yards each. The result was that, Westkall was lira at the winning -post by three yards (Brookson a bad t h ird llen), and Martin sho we d as second, Warwick being . _ THE MILE RACE.—This prize, a silver snuff-box, was con tested by a complete crowd of pedestrians. Of these we shall only notice those who are known to the public. Brookson, Warwick, Nutt, and Makepeace started from the scratch, while a mob of eight runnnrs recei - ved twenty yards, accord. ing to the conditions. We nall leave the position of the minor men unnoticed. Warwick led the first quarter of a mile, with Brookson is close attendance, with Makepeace and Nutt third and. fourth. The pace soon told on the com moners, and at the third quarter Makepeace led, Brookson, Nutt, and Warwick being in tolerably close attendance.

On Monday, and throughout the whole of Sunday, con siderable sensation was manifested amongst the clergy and local authorities of the parish of St. Pancras, in consequence of the dreadful and melancholy end of a Rev. Gentleman, for many years past officiating at the old church; and the mysterious and suspicious circumstances connected there with. On instituting inquiries in various quarters yester. day, the following narrative was obtained by the reporter : The Rev. Gentleman alluded to is the Rev. Charles Kayo, aged fifty, who has been for some years past the assistant minister at Old St. Pancras Church. On the afternoon of Sunday, the 26th ult., the Rev. Gentleman, as was his usual custom, attended the burial-ground, and read the funeral service over a great number of bodies. He also attended, for a similar purpose, on the Wednesday and Thursday following, and on these occasions he appeared in his usual health. He was again expected to perform his duties, as usual, on Sunday, the 2d instant, but as he did not make his appearance, inquiries were instituted, and it was ascertained that the unfortunate gen tleman had, on the previous evening, been conveyed away from his apartments, No. 18, Wilmot-street, Brunswick square, in a cab to the Unive r sity C o ll ege Hosp ital, on the ground that he had been seized with insanity. _ 11 Pee_ y ra that on the arrival of the Rev h Gentleman at the ospital r.

Mr. Kaye was really mad, notice was given that he must be removed, his case not being a proper one for treatment in that hospital. On the following Tues day the parties who had taken the Rev. Gentleman to the hospital again removed him in a cab to the St. Pancras Workhouse, where he remained under the care of a Mr. T. H. Cooper, the pariah surgeon, until Saturday last. when he died, it is stated, in a most dreadful manner and raving mad. _ _ _ The Rev. Mr. Kaye, who is stated to be a widower, had resided for upwards of five years at No. 18, Wilmot-Areet % and was generally supposed to be a poor clergyman, but circumstances have within the last few days transpired to induce a belief that the contrary is the fact. After the removal of the Rev. Gentleman from the hospital to the workhouse, the persons.above alluded to proceeded to 18, Wilmot-street, and demanded of the landlady the keys of the Rev. Mr. Kave's apartments. These. however. she *treed to resign at Arst, but ultimately did so, on which the gentlemen proceeded up stairs, and then being unable to and the keys, they forced the drawers, secretaires, &c., of the un fortunate gentleman, and took away with them all his writings, and it is believed a consid era bl e amount of other property. Having again fastened up the doors of the apart ments, the gentlemen called upon the landlady to take charge of the keys of them, and allow no one to enter until they had paid another visit. This. however, she positively declined to do, as she bad no knowledge of the property about to be taker away, and the parties then left, taking the keys with them. The most remarkable circumstance, and that which appears to excite the greatest suspicion is the fact, that during the whole time the Rev. Gentleman hae been an inmate of the workhouse, not a single soul has visited, or made any inquiries after him, nor since his death up to last evening, had any one applied for his removal, or claimed his body, which still lies in the dead house usually' appropriated for the remains of paupers. This, it is con sidered, would not have been the case if the parties above referred to had really been the friends of the deceased or his family. It is stated that, during the whole time the unfor tunate gentleman had been in the workhouse, he was so ex tremely violent as to render necessary his constant confine ment in a strait waistcoat, and all his apprehensions appeared to be that he was being "robbed and murdered. An order of removal had been procured, and had not death terminated his sufferings on Saturday, the Rev. Gentleman was to have been removed on Monday to the County Lunatic Asylum, at Hanwell. In consequence of the singular cir cumstance and the unsatisfactory nature of the case, the overseers of the poor intend laying the whole facts before the board of directors and guardians, and a communication on the subject having been also forwarded to Mr. Wakley, the coroner, there can be but little doubt the entire matter will undergo, as it deserves, a rigid investigation.
