" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what slum, To reach in health full threescore rears and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing 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 understan I ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quapty promulgated tluough 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 MU 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 faithfully 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 lik 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 seeming 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.

PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS. (From the Voles ivid Proceedings of the ilou'se of commons.) . • . MONDAY, JeLY 27. LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY (LON DON-11RIDGE EX'FfSION) BILL, The Earl of Lincoln reported from the l..3eleci Com mittee on Group- (67) of Railway Bills ; that, in the case of the London and South-Western Hallway- (London bridge Extension) Bill, the Committee had ,examined into the several matters required by the 'standing orders to be in quirai into by Committees on Railway-41HD, and agreed to the following report : That the proposed work is an e4ision of the South- Western Railway, and proposed to tie constructed by the London and South-Western RailiVay Cdmpany, out of their subscribed capital ; in consequence Av,hereof the first six sections of the 87th Standing Order AI 49,t appear to the Committee to be-applicable to th e Kese nt That the proposed railway is a compl* and integral line between the termini specified ; that igfrom the intended new station of the said London and 'outt-Western Railway, now about to be constructed near the 'Zork-road, Lambeth, to the Thames, near London-bridge, all in the county of Surrey, and is not part of a more extended plan, now in con templation, and likely to be hereafter submitted to Parlia ment, and the calculation of remuneration does not depend upon any contemplated extenn. • That no report-from the Board of Trade, in regard to the Bill, has been referred by the House to the Committee. That there is no plane proposed to be worked by assistant engines, either stationary or locom ,, tive. That there is no pecaliar engineering difficulty on the pro posed line. That there is no tunnel. That the gradients and curves are favourable; the steepest gradient being 1 in 467, and that at its divergence from the metropolitan extension of the said London and South- Western Railway; and the smallest radius of a curve being 1 furlong 5 chains, at the London-bridge, terminus. That the length of the line to.#42rApixgr Thames is 1 mile, 1 furlong, 8 chains, and 30 links:: That it is not intended that the Railway should cross ally turnpike or public road on a level. That the amount of the estimate of the cost and other expenses to be incurred up to the time of the completion of the Railway is 500,000/. ; which appears, to be supported by evidence, and to be fully adequate for the purpose. That the estimated charge of the annual expenses of the railway is 30 per cent.; anti the calculations on which it is founded have been Eurticiently proved. That the number of assents, dissents, and neuters upon the line, distinguishing owners from occupiers, are as stated in the appendix (A); but, from the peculiar nature of the property traversed, it does not seem possible to state the length and amount of property belonging to each class. That Mr. Tite, the architect and surveyor, was examined in support of the Bill, Mr. Joseph Locke being engineer. That the following petitions were referred to the Com mittee, viz. : A petition from the Commissioners of Sewers for the limits extending from East Moulsey, in Surrey, to Ravensbourne, in Kent, alleging that the intended lire would interfere with the sewers, sluices, watercourses, walls, banks, arches, &c. ; that they are compelled by Acts of Parliament to keep the same in complete order; and that provisions ought to be in ; - serted in the Bill for their protection. A petition from the Commissioners for paving the streets within the borough of Southwark, and certain parts adjoin ing, and for cleansing, lighting, and watching the same, alleging that the proposed line would pass over, by means of arches and bridges, certain thoroughfares through which there is great traffic; that the traffic through the thorough fares through which the line proposes to pass would be im peded on account of the said arches and bridges ; that it would interfere with their rights and interests; and that there are divers clauses injurious to them as Commissioners. A petition from the Commissioners for paving, cleansing, lighting, and watching the streets within the manor of South wark, otherwise called the Clink, or Bishop of Winchester's Liberty, in the parish of St. Saviour, Southwark, in the county of Surrey, alleging that the proposed line is intended to be built upon arches of a certain height, and passes through a populous neighbourhood, the effect of which would be injurious to the property in the neighbourhood ; that it would be inconvenient and injurious; that the traffic would be impeded; that thetates would be diminished ; that they ought to receive compensation; and that provision ought to be made with respect to arches, &c. A petition from the trustees of Surrey Chapel, alleging that the proposed line would pass near the said building ; that the service would be interrupted, and that the property would be injured. A petition from the Right Reverend the Bishop of Ro chester, alleging that he is interested, in the right of the see of Rochester, of considerable property, which would be ma terially injured; that there is no public necessity; that it would be injurious to the county of Surrey; and praying for clauseito protect his rights, and for compensation for the diminution cf rates, tithes, &c. A petition from the Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Winchester, containing similar allegatisns. A petition from Richard Dean, a builder, alleging that his property would be materially injured; and that he would be ruined. A petition from Charles Pott and others, lessees of pro perty, alleging that their property will be injured, and pray ing for full compensation. A petition from William Paynter, containing same alle-' gations as above. . A petition from certain owners and occupiers of property on the line, alleging that the property will be injured in the locality of the line; the noise would be very objectionable; that the streets would be rendered unsafe, and that their width would be decreased; that the viaduct will form an in terruption to the traffic; that the trade will be injured, and complaining of residential injury. A petition from the South-Eastern Railway Company, under their corp Orate seal, alleging that a Bill is pending fiir making a line from the south-west side of the Waterloo road, near. the York-road, to the London and Greenwich Railway, which would be of great public advantage; that the line proposed . by the South-Western Railway will intersect that line; that 'that line is uncalled for, and would be of no public advantage. A petition from the Wardens of St. Saviour, Southwark, and inhabitants of St. Saviour, by the trustees of the Borough Market and the committee of the parish estates of said parish, alleging that the proposed 'line iS to be made upon arches and viaducts, and would greatly damage, if not entirely destroy, the importance of said parish, rendering all the properties contiguous, and not required by the line, of little or no value, interfering with the-traffic, and greatly in juring the property in the neighbourhood; that the trade of the shopkeepers would be injured by the removal of a great portion of the public from their houses to. make room for the construction of the line.; that the service at St. Saviour's Church would be interfered with .and interrupted; that the wouldb reduced;e of in fact, that it would be highly in jurious to the whole the parish; unnecessary and un ca lled for, and would be of no P u bli c a d Va n tag e; an d t h at a b etter rates line might. be made. ____ That the Committee are satisfied of the fitness in an en gineering point of view of the proposed work. That there are no special circumstances of which, in the opinion of the Committee, it is desirable that the House should be informed, excepting that the delay which has arisen in the progress of this Bill is to be attributed only to the fact, that the Commission appointed by her Majesty, pursuant to an a dd ress f rom the House of Com mons of the 23d of March last, to investigate and report their opinion upon the various railway projects of which the termini were proposed to be established within or in the im mediate vicinity of the metropolis, had not made its report in time for its submission to a Committee of your House at an earlier period of the session. That the attention of the Committee has been directed to the report from the Royal Commission in regard to the termini of the railways in the metropolis, which was referred to them by the House; and, in passing the present Bill, the Com mittee have in so far sanctioned the recommendation con tained in such report. The Earl of Lincoln further reported from the Com mittee—That they had examined the allegations contained in the preamble of the Bill, and had amended the same, by omitting the extension to the High-street in Southwark, conceiving the same to be unnecessary; and had found the allegations of the Bill, as amended, to be true; and bad gone ,hrough the Bill, and made several amendments thereunto.

THE DAGENHAM MURDER.—We have been informed upon good authority that no clue has yet been obtained to the party who committed the murder of the late police-constable Clarke, at Dagenham. early on the morning of the 13th of June last; ,and as it is deemed possible that the g uilt y person may have been.

Lord Byron and Lord George Lennox arrived before one o'clock with two of the royal carriages, and M. Van de Weyer, the Belgian Minister, to receive and attend their Majesties to Buckingham Palace. At a few minutes before two o'clock the signal was given that the Garland steam-vessel was in sight, with the royal standard of Belgium at the mast-head. At ten minutes past two o'clock their Majesties landed, and were received by the naval and military officers and heads of the departments of the dockyard and numerous respectably dressed spectators uncovered, and walked along the wharf, which was covered with grecti liaise, to one of the and guard th e ba o f d n honourpla3in playing the national oya the royal carriages, escorted by C a p tain Su p erintendent Houston Stewart and Major-General Sir Thomas Downman, Marines presentingaptain t, l a u r d n e i a , battery fired a royal salute, to announce the landing of their Majesties.

Adey, in attendance to accompany them en route. His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge and his Royal Highness the Hereditary Grand Duke of Xectlett burgh-Strelitz arrived at Woolwich to-day at twelve o'clock, and were received at the garrison by Major-General Sir Thomas Downman, C.B. and ECM., Colonel Turner, C. 8., Lieutenant-Colonel Gordon; Brigade-Major Cuppage, and Captain . Tylden, Deputy Assistant Quart ermaster-G en eral, with a number of officers of the Royal Regiment of Artliery. His Royal Highness and the Grand Duke then proceeded to the square where the horses of the brigade of artillery are kept, and witnessed the short period required to bring out and mount them in review order. The troops of Royal Horse Artillery, under the command of Colonel Wylde, C. 8., with Lieutenant-Colonel Hardinge, K.H., second in com mand, walked to the common, and at the west gate of the garrison his Royal Highness and the Grand Duke wit nessed the mode in which the guns of this branch of the ordnance service were attached and made ready for action. On arriving at the common, Major-General Sir Thomas Downman, Commandant of the garrison, and the royal visitors were joined by a numerous staff, amongst whom we observed Colonel Cleaveland, Lieutenant-Colonel Bastard, Lieutenant-Colonel Grant, Lieutenant-Colonel Craw ford, Lieutenant-Colonel Louis, Lieutenant-Colonel Vaughan Arbuckle, Major Askwith, Captain Hill, Captain De Prtnzy, and Captain Bonn. The three troops of Horse Artillery, under the respective commands of Captain Ingleby, Captain F. Warde, and Captain Cleaveland, on the gallant comman dant the royal visitors and staff occupying a station at the flag-staff, walked past, and then at trot end full gallop, affording evident gratification to the royal visitors by the celerity and precision of the movements. The troops were then exercised in the whole of the evolutions of the Royal Horse Artillery, and though the ground was very dry and hard, performed the whole in a most admirable and highly efficient manner. On the gun carriages being dismounted, his Royal Highness Prince . George went up with his Royal Highness the Grand Duke, and witnessed the details of the movements very minutely, and at the conclusion thanked Colonel Whyte and the officers and men in the name of the Grand Duke and himself, for the gratification they had experienced in witnessing the ex ercises of the gallant corps under his command. His Royal Highness was received, on arriving at the common, with a general salute, the brass band of the corps playing the Na tional anthem. On their Highnesses' departure, a salute was fired from the guns of the Royal Horse Artillery. During the period the royal visitors remained at the garrison the' royal standard was hoisted at the mortar battery, and their Highnesses witnessed the last round of mortar practice car ried on by the gentlemen cadets, at a flagstaff eight hun dred and fifty yards distance. After leaving the common their Highnesses proceeded to the mess-room of the Ordnance corps, and partook of an elegant dejeune, the band of the Royal Artillery playing in front several of the finest airs and marches. Shortly after three o'clock their Highnesses proceeded to the landing place, and embarked in one of the Waterman's steamers for town. DIRECT LONDON AND IVIAIv- CHESTER RAILWAY COMPANY (REMING- TON'S LINE). A special meeting of the shareholders in this company took place yesterday at the London Tavern, for the purpose of de termining upon the propriety of winding up the affairs of the Company, and deciding whether the dissolution should be deemed an act of bankruptcy on the part of the company. The meeting was convened for twelve o'clock, but at a quarter to one o'clock there was only one of the directors present, Mr. Bass, and much impatience was manifested on the part of the proprietary. At last, Mr. D. W. HARVEY moved that Mr. M. Bass, as a shareholder, and not in any other character, be elected to the chair. • The resolution was unanimously carried. A SiiniumioLDEn said that he had not seen any advertise ment calling the meeting. The SOLICITOR said that it had been properly advertised in the Gazette and in three London daily papers. Mr. D. W. Harvey, Mr. Boyd, and Mr. Pocock were then appointed scrutineers. A SHAREHOLDER desired to know how many shares had been paid up ? The CHAIRMAN—About 51,000, and we shall require about 17,000 shares to constitute a meeting. A SHAREHOLDER desired to know if the Chairman was prepared to lay a statement before the meeting? The CHAIRMAN said that he was not so prepared ; be had been left alone, and be wished to be allowed to state his connexion with the line. He had always avoided any connexion with railways, and it was not until a very late period, and after repeated solicitation, that :be consented to join the scheme. When he was elected a member of the committee, it was under the express understanding that he would not be re quired to attend the meetings in London, but that he would facilitate the line in the country, where bis own property lay. But when many of the directors had retired from various causes, and when he had learned the exact state of the affairs of the Company, he then considered that he was bound, as far as he was able, to set them right. He discovered that a very large sum of money had been paid to the soli citor, a course against which be protested, and took further proceedings. The shareholders were no doubt aware that a bill had been filed against all the directors in the line for an account and restitution of the sums of money in - trusted to them. The bill was most comprehensive, and an action bad been commenced against himself by a shareholder for the restitution of the deposits. lie considered that Rastrick's Company bad done everything which became honourable men, and he did not see that they could require back the money which had been paid to them. Ile considered that if legal proceedings were taken the very small sum which remained would not pay one shilling in the pound. With regard to the accounts, be had been very desirous to have obtained them for the shareholders, but he was unable to effect that object. A SHAREHOLDER—What may beabout the balance which remains? CHAIRMAN—It is between 7,0001. and 10,0001.—(Hisses.) I regret the smallness of the sum, gentlemen, as much as any of you. Mr. Pococx moved the dissolution of the Company. The affairs of the Company had been conducted in a most dis graceful and discreditable manner.—(Hear, hear.) When ever he applied for information by letter to the directors he was unattended to, and when he applied. person ally at the office, he was met by a little boy who would say, " Really, sir, I',know nothing about it." The number of shares which had been allotted were 51,000, and those which ought to have been were 100,000. In answer to a question, The CHAIRMAN said that 42,0001. had been paid to Rat trick's Company. A SHAREFIOLDER—FOT what? (Cries of "Nothing, nothing.") Mr. RICHARDSON seconded the resolution, which was unanimously carried. It was also declared that the dissolution should not be taken as an act of bankruptcy. The meeting then separated. WORCESTER, HEREFORD, ROSS, AND GLOUCESTER RAILWAY. A meeting of the shareholders in this project was held yes terdayat one o'clock, at the offices 449, West Strand, in terms of the Act 8 and 9 Vict., for the purpose of determining on a dissolution of the Company. Sir R. Price, having taken the chair, called on the Secre tary to read the advertisement convening the meeting. The following gentlemen were then elected scrutineers— Mr. Avery, of Gloucester; Mr. Stallard and Mr. Peterson, Temple . The Ch AMMAN read the committee's 'report, which stated that though the Company had failed on the standing orders, the committe were of opinion that the line would have fully realised all that had been held out in the prospectus; that there was a disposable sum of 61,889/. Bs., and that there would be a dividend of 1/. 4s. per share immediately, and a final dividend when the accounts were made up. The CHAIRMAN afterwards intimated a wish that all pre sent who were interested in the line should wait after the meeting to see whether they might not retain the ground, with a view of forming a company to make the line. Mr. OXENttAM asked whether the scheme bad not failed through a mistake of the engineer? If so, he thought his accounts ought not to be paid. Mr. BARER said that the Company had pressed Mr. Brunel into their service at a time when there was a great push in business, and the mistake was not his, or one for which he was accountable. The mistake was made by a local sur veyor, who was willing to submit his accounts to the revision of any respectable engineer. A PROrRIETOR asked how many shares had been issued, and how many paid upon? The SECRETARY said 50,000 shares had been allotted, and 46,894 had been paid upon, which shares had returned 98,4791. Bs. Mr. HALL put several questions on the accountsi which were read to the meeting in full. After hearing that Mr. Brunel was the only engineer whose name had ever appeared in connexion with the scheme, he said it was his opinion that Mr. Brunel was responsible for the loss which the Com pany had sustained in consequence of the mistake, and that lie was of opinion also that the Company, if the share holders would be secure, should be dissolved by bankruptcy. —(Hear, hear.) The shareholders would, he was sure, lock to Mr. Brunel for a return of the money which had been lost in consequence of the gross mistake, a mistake nothing more or less than making the river Severn run up hill—(Laughter.) Mr. AVERY hoped, as the shareholders could not appoint a Committee of their own to examine into the: accounts, such instructions would be given to the gentlemen who had the winding up of the affairs as would impress them with the im perative necessity of looking narrowly into the accounts. Mr. BAKER felt assured that allthose on the committee were as much inclined as any in the room "to cut down, as far as reasonable, all the accounts. He confessed he was startled at the amount of the law expenses, which were 15,200/. Err. ROlt wished to know if the committee .would pledge themselves to go before the taxing master? Mr. B4Exu said they were quite willing to go before the maater. • EXAMPLES. ' 4 Bonus Bonus in gag Assured 3Ei Premium. P t,. added. Cash.

Mr. ELGiE, the solicitor, said he was known to many in the meeting, and as an honest man he was prepared, and even desirous, to have the accounts investigated before the taxing master. Mr. BODENUAM, (Hereford), adopted bfr. Elgie's language in reference to his own accounts. Mr. BAKER moved, and Mr. W. T.A.mott seconded, the testilution that the Company should be dissolved. The motion was put and carried unanimously. The CILAIRMAIN moved that this dissolution be without an act of bankruptcy: This was put to the meeting and carried also unanimously. Mr; Ross moved a vote of thanks to the chairman. Air. CAntittxbu seconded the motion, which was passed with acclamation. Sir RGBERT PRICE reittrad his acknowledgment of the honour and the kindness, and then adjourned the meeting, which throughout was certainly not One of the quietest or most orderly. --- GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY. On Saturday the first gencial meeting of this incorporation, under which the London and York and Direct Northern are incorporated and included, met at the Hall of Commerce. Mr. W. Astell, M.P.. in the chair. Mr. Mowarr, the secretary, read the reperf. It referred to a struggle in which the company had been engaged in both Houses of Pailiament, and to the triumph whien had, after two years' conflict, crowned their exertions. The ex- , penses of so keen atld protracted a contest had necessarily been great. Those of the London and York had exceeded 200,000/., while the expenses of•-the Direct Northern, with whieh the London . and York had amalgamated, amounted to upwards of 00,0001. Still, between the Joint capital of the two amalgamated sehemeti, they had a balance in their bankers' hands of upteardS of 400,0001., which is mailable for the purposes of the company. With that sum In hand, to commence operations with, they did nut Mean to make any call on the share holders till March next j and in the meantime four per cent. interest, payable in October ne±t, would be allowed on all the deposits : while on all future Calls; or on Kitts paid in ad vance, five per cent, would be allowed. The report then pro ceeded to refer to various other matters of minor importance connected with the Company. Among its recommendations were the appointment of a managing director, with a salary of 2,000/. a-year, it being an express regulation with the party to ho so engaged that he shotild devote his entire time and undivided energies to the interests of the Great Northern Railway. The report further recommended that the number of directors should be thirty. Both recommendations, after a brief discussion, were adopted. The adoption of the part of the report which recommended that the number of direc tors should be thirty, was followed by the unanimous adop tion of a resolution that the sum to be annually paid to the directors for their services should be 3,500/, to be divided among thernselVes as they should think fit. Mr. BECKETT DENI3OII, in moving one of the formal resolutions, addressed the meeting at some length on the position and prospects of the Great Northern. He began by adverting to the unprecedented obstructions which had been thrown in their way in carrying forward their project, and congratulated the ahateholders on the success which had crowned their exertions. With regard to the future, he begged to inform the shareholdei'S that respectable contractors had come forward, who were ready to undertake the con struction of the line at less than the estimate of Mr. Cubist, the distinguished engineer.-40heers.) The gentlemen to whom he referred bad also expressed their willingnen to begin without requiring any money to be adVaneed to them. They were willing to go a considerable length on credit for the faith they had in the directors and the Company. - As had been stated in the report, they did not mean to make any call till next spring. The rapidity with which the works could be executed would depend on the manner in which the calls would be responded to. About 200 miles out of the 320 miles of the line were on a dead level, and would be very easy of construction. Some slight deviations and alterations would be made in parts of the line, and at the recommendation of their engineer; but these would not inter fere with the progress of the works. He had no doubt the line, when made, would be a good paying line, and in that opinion he was borne out by the opinions of others, in whose know ledge of railway matters he had greater confidence than in his own. The shareholders might rely on it, that every inch of the line would be made. It would be constructed in all its integrity. In answer to a question, it was stated by one of the di rectors, that if the shareholders responded in aproper manner to the calls, the line might be opened throughout by the be ginning of 1850. Several other gentlemen addressed the meeting; and the various resolutions—among which was one appointing Mr. Mowatt secretary, with a salary of 8001. per annum—were passed. THE LATE CASE OF MILITARY _ FLOGGING. Lieutenant-Colonel Whyte, commanding the ith Hussars at Hounslow, has had interviews with the Duke of Welling ton, Mr. Fox Maule, Secretary at War, and the Marquis of Anglesey, the former Colonel-in-Chief of the regiment, on the subject of the unfortunate occurrence, The officer in question was engaged, we understand, %Mit the Marquis of Anglesey up to a late hour on Wednesday night last,. and in the subsequent part of the week was engaged with tbt com mander-in-Chief. In erder that the public may be enabled to arrive at a proper conclusion, and form opinions as to the innocent and guilty parties in the transactions, the following particulars relative to military law, as well as to some of the circum stances of the case, are added. Before proceeding further, it may be well to state that Colonel Whyte is not the Colonel of the regiment, but Lieutenant-Colonel, or Commanding officer, or in other words acting Colonel, as agreeably to army usages the Colonel-in Chief of a corps never accompanies it; and also, that although the Coroner has already had two long inquiries, at neither were two most important docu ments produced—the one being the minutes of the proceed ings of the court• martial by which the prisoner was sen tenced, and the other the list of officers who composed the same. As stated some time since, the charge preferred against the deceased was violence towards a non-commissioned officer. Ye was tried by a district or garrison court-martial, which, agreeably to the 9th Article of War, consisted of seven commis sioned officers. Of this tribunal Captain Shirley, the senior captain of the regiment, acted as president. The evidence was taken on oath, and, on the guilt of the prisoner being established and sentence passed, the finding and sentence were forwarded to the Horse Guards for confirmation. It is a mistake to suppose that the court had not power to inflict any other sentence than one of corporal punishment, as the words of the article run thus :—" And the court may sentence any soldier to imprisonment, with or without hard labour, and may also direct that such offender shall be kept in soli tary confinement for any portion or portions of such impri sonment, not exceeding 28 days at a time, nor 84 days in any year, with intervals between the periods of solitary confinement of not less duration than such periods of solitary confinement ; or may sentence any soldier to corporal punish mein, not extending to life or limb, for immorality, mis behaviour, or neglect of duty. And such court may, in ad dition to either of the said punishments, sentence a soldier to forfeiture of all advantages as to additional pay, and to pen sion, or discharge, which might have otherwise accrued from the length of his former service," &c. The clause in the Queen's orders and regulations for the army relative to the infliction of capital punishment is to the following effect :—The award by a general court-martial is restricted to 200 lashes; by a district or garrison court martial to 150 lashes; and by a regimental court-martial to 100 lashes. The deceased Frederick White, it will therefore be observed, received the highest penalty in the power of the court to award, as did the private Matthewson, who re ceived 10Q lashes by order of a regimental court-martial, for insolence to a sergeant. In the army regulations also appear regulations to the fol lowing effect : Just discrimination is to be used by the Court in applying the quantum of punishment, whether corporal or other, to the nature and degree of the crime, so that its award may be final, and carried into effect, it being indisputable that crimes are more effectually prevented by the certainty than by the severity of punishment, &c. * Submissive, quiet, orderly conduct, and proof of contrition while undergoing punishment, are, unless the crime has been of a very aggravated character, to be favourably considered. In the case of district court-martial, the commanding officer may, if he should see reason, recommend a partial re mission of the punishment to the general officer who ap proved the sentence. In the case of regimental courts martial, approved by himself, he has the power of using his own discretion. Sentence must be inflicted in the presence of the sur geon or the assistant-surgeon, who have the power of stop ping the punishment when the culprit can no longer bear Zacc- A lefts r, published in a provincial paper, states that the deceased, Frederick White, was the son of a very respect able man, who, some years since, held a responsible situa tion in the General Post-office, and who subsquently acted as postmaster at Nottingham. It adds, that through the change in his parent's circumstances, and consequent dis tress, the deceased enlisted into the 2d Life Guards, which he left owing to a hurt, but subsequently entered the 7th. The colonel of the regiment, Sir William Tuyll, who was appointed a few months since, in the room of the late Sir James Kearney, is, we believe, on the Continent. The Margin s of Anglesey was colonel up to 1842, when he re ceived the command of the Blues.

DEATH OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE HEINRICH OF l'itussia.—lntelligence reached town on Monday of the demise of his Ltoyal Highness Prince Heinrich of Prussia, who died at Rome, after a short illness, oa the 11th list.

FA TAL CART ACCIDENT AT BATTLE-BRIDGE.—On Mond: ty Mr. William Carter held an inquest at the Duke of Welling ton Tavern, Newington-causeway, on the body of Samuel Burt, aged forty-ilve years, a carpenter, lately residing at No. 9, Thomas-street, Newii igton. The deceased was in the employ of Messrs. Piper and Co., 'No. 173, Bishopagate-street Without, builders. On Thursday last he went, in company with other workmen, to make some altera tions at the Mill-hill Grammar School, Hendon, and while on his way home in his employer's cart, near the Small-pox Hospital. at Battle.brid;e, he overbalanced himself, and fell over the end of the cart into the carriage-way. He was raised up by his friends and carried to a surgeon's, but ho refused to go in, and was consequently taken home with all speed, where he was placed under the care of /Kr.

Sia,—Report Lays that there is a scarcity of game. On that score I shall ,:tot repine. If we never had another head of pine in the country it would, in my humble ofinion, be a fortunaie thing. We should then have no more broilings, perjurious of gamekeepers azid their men, unjust convictions through them, nor murders, oti accotua of game or the in famous game-laws.—Yours, obedii;ntly, July 27, 1846. REASON. P.S. How much longer will it be ere the t;.'une-law Com' mittee make their report, I wonder? How skro - some " gen tlemen sportsmen," of stable minds, are on certain occasions.

SUPPLY OF WATER TO LONDON.—The metropolis is supplied with this useful element by eight different water companies, viz., the New River Company supply 94,000 houses with 13,000,000 gallons daily. ; the East London, Waterworks supply 62,000 houses with 7,500,000 gallons; the West Middlesex Company supply 20,000 houses with 3,000,000 gallons; the Chelsea Waterworks supply 17,000 houses with 2,200,000 gallons ; the Grand Junction Com pany supply 10,500 houses with 3,500,000 gallons • the Lambeth Waterworks supply 20,000 houses with 1,500,000 gallons ; the Vauxhall Waterworks supply 13,500 houses with 1,300,000 gallons; and the Southwark Water Company supply 12,000 houses with 1,000,000 gallons daily, making s grand total of 36,000,000 gallons of water running daily into the metropolis from the reservoirs of the different companies.. The total number of houses supplied is 550,000, or 144 gallons to each house. The population of London and its suburbs is 2,500,000 persons; if they all consumed an equal quantity of water, it would be equal to 14 gallons daily, or 5,110 gallons yearly to each person. The yearly consumption of water in London amounts to 13,140,000,000 gallons ; this it mense quantity of water would supply the whole popula tion of Great Britain and Ireland (30,000,000 persons), with 'one pint. per day for ten years, or the whole population of the known world (9,600,000,000 persons) with one pint per day, for twelve days. Supposing this quantity of water was in one reservoir, with a spout it the bottom, so that the water could flow at the rate of four gallons per minute, it would require 5,850 years, or as long as the world has been erected, to empty it, and the weight of tht . water would be 46,928,571 tons.
