The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and itcontinental'Europe. The result't of the knowledge thus acquired are Dere conde,used.under the personal supervision )f Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few egaVy qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and rltimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Pr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care will, in every instance,' meet with that delicate consideration sad inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cues.

The successful results of the last half cen tury have proved, beyond question, that RO iVLAI4 DS' MAC A SSAR OIL is endowed with singularly nourishing powers ix the growth and restoratibn of the human hair, and when every other specific has failed..- This celebrated Oil is now universally acknowledged to be the cheapest, and sty erior to all other prepar,ktions for the Hair. It pie vents it from falling off or turning grey—strengthens weak hair— produces a thick and luxuriant growth—and makes it beautifully soft, curly, and glossy. In the gr:rwth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and Mustachios, it is unfailing in its stimulative operation. I n reference to the Hair of early childhood, the i.se of the Oil is attended with the happiest effects ; .mild, invigorating, and purifying in every instance, it dispels scurf and oandriff, and renders unnecessary the use of the fine comb.-- * Price 3s. 6d. and 75.; or Family Betties (equal to four small) at 10s. 6d., and double that size, 21s. o'n the wrapper of each bottle aro the words, "ROWLANDS' CAiSAR OIL," in two lines.—S,ld by A.

The following testimonial is another proof Of the great efficacy of ' this medicine : • . Winchmore 11111, Midesex, April 16, 1851. " consideration of the great benefit I have derived from taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to you and the publie to send you the following statement.

A Bill embracing the proposed objects of the present Company was before the last Parliament, when, after passing the Standing Orders and the first and second reading, it wss submitted to the Select Committee on the Metropolis Water Supply. The Government and the other Bills occupied the attention of the COMinittoe till the latter end of May, when this Bill was called on, and the evidence gone into ; but from the improbability of being able to pass the Bill through the Honsd of Lords in that Parliament, and in order to avoid large and useless expenditure, by the advice of Counsel, it was withdrawn, upon the understanding that the same measure would be proceeded with in the next Parliament. The Metropolis Water Bill passed last Sessien removes all uncer tainty as to the extent of interference by the Legislature with regard to Water Companies, thereby enabling the. Promoters of this Under taking to frame their measures to meet all the requirements of the New - Ac', and likewise to offer to the capitalist a perfectly secure poeans, of investment. The Water of the River Wandle has long been celebrated for its great purity, and its recent analysis by eminent chemists, fully con firm the high character given to it by the late Mr. Telford and Dr. Bostock, in their examination by the Government Commissioners on Water Supply. Every Householder South of the Thames paying Water Rates, is aware of the high charge for the present inferior and insufficient supply. The proposed rates of this Company will be upon a much lower scale. It will thus he evident that upon the point of economy alone, they must command the preference of consumers; but when the purity of the water is considered, and that the supply will be constant and unlimited, all competition will necessarily be su perseded. 11tt ough inordinate profits are not contemplated by this Com pany, yet it is firmly believed, looking at the vast extent of the Surrey DiLtrict, and the daily increase of buildings there, that the present undertaking will afford an immediate, round, and steady investment for capital, with every prospect that the maximum di vidend, now allowed by the Legislature, namely, 101 per cent., will be speedily attained ; proposals having already been made by largo consumers, to take several millions of gallons daily. After payment of the Deposit, no call will be made until an Act be obtained, in which it will be provided that no Call shell exceed 11. per Share, or be made at more frequent intervals than three months.

Dated this day of 1852• .1 Name in full Trade a Profession .. Address of Referee .......... THOMAS HOOD'S GRAVE.—The publication in Eliza's Cook's Journal of" Lines written at Kensall-green Cemetry," hits induced numerous readers to express an earnest de sire to assist in raising a fund for the purpose of placing a memorial over the remains of "Poor Hood." Many a burst of merriment has echoed above " Hood's Comic Annual." from the lips of all classes. Fur many a year he cheered our Chr'stmas firesides with racy humour, that never wearied by its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was ha known as the Poet of Mirth: but the higher development of his goat's and the noble- purpose of his muse were shown in such glorious hymns as " The Song of the shirt" and the " Bridge of Sighs." Those who have read either of these poems will acknow ledge that such a man deserves to have a mark upon his sleeping place, eo that it may be fnvid without the help of a grave-yard servant. and all who have laughed at his inimitable wit, or sighed over his human tenderness, are now earnestly solicited to spare what they can in aid of a purpose which is alike praiseworthy in the living and due to the dead. At the request of the committee, Miss Eliza Cook has consented to be Treasurer to the fund, and Mr. John Watkins to be Honorary Secretary. Subscriptions Will be received by Mr. William Strude ',eke, at the Whittington Club, Arundi I-street, Strand ; at the office of Eliza Cook's Journal, 3, Raquet•court, Fleet-street ; by Miss Eliza Cook, 54, Great Ormonde-street, Bloomsbury; and by Mr. John Watkins, 34, Parliament-street, Westminster.

MARYLEBONE FREE LIBRARY.—A meeting was held at the Marylebone Court-house yesterday to take into consideration the best means of establishing a free library for the use of the labouring classes in that dis trict, when the following resoluutions were egreed to :- Ist. "That it is peculiar proper and desirable that this great and populous district, comprehending within its population some of the most distinguished and wealthy of the nation, together with many whose means are limited and whose time is circumscribed, should set an example of contributing to the intellectual and moral cultivation of the people, by the establishment of a Free Library for the improvement of the working classes." 2nd. "That in the opinion of this meeting, the estab- lishment of a public library, including a lending library of wholesOme and improving books, accessible and free 'to all, may be, unde r the Divine blessing; a means of promoting in no small measure - the happiness, • comfort, and prosperity of the peo ple, by affording them opportunities of improve ment and enjoyment , free from gross and seri sual impurities, and by contributing to make their homes what they ought to be—the abodes of order and contentment, 'of cheerful piety, and of intellectual and spiritual improvement ;" and thirdly, "that, recognizing the principle that it is mainly by the diffusion ofSound education that the prosperity of England'is to be best secured, this meeting pledges itself to use every exertion to promote this effort to educate and invigorate. the minds of the population, and in the full •assurance that the industrious classes, so instinct witlo intelligence, are prepared to profit by the opportunities such a libiary would afford, this meeting hereby calls on them to aid an object devised specially for their advantage, and cal- . culated so materially to promote their elevation and welt -being." A WELLINGTON CUP.—It would be . a graceful act in the Jockey Club if they were to call a meeting imme diately, and establish a noble stake, to be called either the Wellington Cup, or the Wellington Stakes. We are sure that the entire sporting community would support it, and if the Jockey Club decline to adopt the sugges tion, we trust either Mr. Topham or Mr. Darling will take it up.—Racing Times. THE MYSTERIES OP SPECIAL PLEADING. --In a cele brated suit between two litigious washerwomen, touch ing a missing wash-tub, three pleas were, put in by the defendant—first, that she had lost it ; secondly, that she had returned it; thirdly, that she had never had it. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. We regret exceedingly to hear that Lieut. Francis Rooke (1846), the only officer who was saved under the most miraculous circumstances, from the wreck of the Avenger steam-frigate, died at Haslar a few days since. He was a gallant gentleman and a great favourite, and his death will be generally deplored by a large circle of friends. PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 24.

She encountered a heavy gale from the N.W., from the 15th to the 18th inst. ; arrived off the Needles on Saturday night, but, owing. to contrary gales, could not make Spithead until last night. The Marlborough, 120, in frame on the stocks in this dockyard, is ordered to be cut in two and lengthened a la Windsor Castle, for adaptation to the screw principle. The Firebrand, 6, steam-frigate ' Captain Codd, sailed from Spithead thi3 afternoon for Woolwich, to be paid off, having previously been inspected by the Commander in-Chief.

The Cornelius Grinnell, American packet, sailed from Spithead this morning for New York. SHEERNESS, Nov. 24. Her Majesty's paddle-wheel steam-sloop, Driver, 6, of 280-horse power, having had her machinery thoroughly repaired, arrived yesterday afternoon from Woolwich to be stationed at this-port as one of the advanced steam squadron of reserve. Her Majesty's steam-vessel Monkey, acting Second Master Mr Robert Sallinger, arrived yesterday at noon from Woolwich with stores. Her Majesty's advanced steamer Cuckoo, 1, chief engi neer Mr. Newton (acting), has had her tubular pipes re moved ; t►ey are in such a defective state as to render new ones necessary. lier Majesty's iron paddle-wheel steam-vessel Lizard has had her bottom cleaned, and is to be payed over with Peacock's patent composition for the prevention of ex ternal oxydization. Her Majesty's ship Phaeton, 50, Captain George Elliott, is ordered on her arrival from the Mediterranean to proceed to this port to be paid off. This fine frigate, of 1,941 tons burden, was built from designs by Mr. White, of Cowes, and launched at Deptford in 1848. She was commissioned in December, 1849. Messrs. Ward and Lewson, clerks in the office of the Captain Superintendent, with servitudes of 40 and 37 years respectively, have been promoted, the former to the first and the latter to the second class, through the recommendations to the First Lord of the Admiralty of Captain C. Hope. The launching of her Majesty's screw steam-frigate Tribune, 30, has been further postponed to the 11th of January next. WOOLWICH, Nov. 24. The men employed upon the Royal Albert, 120, have been placed on task work, in order to expedite the con version of the splendid vessel into a screw steam-ship, and that she may be ready for being launched at as early a period as possible in the ensuing year. The Terrible steam-frigate was taken into dock this afternoon, to undergo a thorough refit. The two boilers with which she worked during her last period of commis sion, have been taken out, and she is to he sappliod with four new boilers, the same number as she originally had when employed on actual service after being built. The Firebrand paddle-wheel steam-frigate, Captain Codd, was in the river this afternoon, and delivering her powder at Purfleet, previous to coming up to Woolwich, where she is to be paid off, having been in commission since October, 1849, and served her fall period on the Mediterranean station. THE SCREW FRIGATE IMPERIEUSE. - This 50-gun frigate, now fitting at Woolwich, \N al be ready for hoist ing the pendant by about the Ist of January next. The fitting of her machinery will be completed by the 23d of December. CORFU, OCT. 19. To-day the squadron anchored here (having sailed from Salamis on the 11th), consisting of the Britannia, Trafalgar, Albion, Bellerophon, Vengeance, Phaeton, Sampson, Firebrand, and Tiger. Found here the Are thusa, Modeste, Spiteful, and Sco -, rge. The Sampson goes to Constantinople—the Scourge and Spiteful to England. Civilities were exchanged with the French admiral, who had his flag on board a double-banked fri gate lying in the Piraeus. He (i.e., the admiral), all the ships of our squadron, and made a minute inspec tion of some. The exercise of the squadron continues in a uniform and regular manner, sufficient to fill up the time without being irksome. The admiral sees that the ships are efficient, and anything beyond the present rou tine would be but a mere wear and tear of rope and can vas, without an equivalent. The allowance of powder and shot for great-gun exercise is duly expended, with occasional night quarters. The pretensions of the dif ferent ships in sailing qualities remain as before. In deed, the winds have been so light that no trials could be made, even if desired. MALTA.—When within signal distance of Malta the fleet were met by a steamer, by which the letters were sent off for Gibraltar, from whence the Vengeance and Phaeton proceed to Lisbon. THE POOR-LAW BOARD'S PROHIBITORY ORDER. • A large deputation, emanating from a meeting held in Manchester on the 25th of October last, had an inter view by appointment with Sir John Trollope at the Poor law-office yesterday, the 24th of November, for the purpose of requesting the total and immediate revo cation of the Prohibitory Order issued by the Poor-law Board on the 25th of August last, on the ground, " that it can only be carried out through the sacrifice of all discretion and humanity by boards of guardians, and the surrender of all right of control or opinion by the rate payers." The deputation represented unions containing upwards of 2,000,000 of population. Sir John Trollope replied at considerable length to the observations of the deputation, and commenced by thank ing them for the courteous and candid manner in which they had stated their objections, and asked the deputation to give the Poor-law Board the same credit as to the motives by which they were actuated as the members of the deputation claimed for themselves. He called the attention of the deputation to the fact that there are up wards of 600 unions in England and Wales under their superintendence, and that this order is already in opera tion in 500 of them, and that, therefore, this order was not anything new, and that in these 500 unions the order was found to vork beneficially both to the rate-payer and rate receiver; that one great object of the order was to teach the poor habits of self-dependence, and that they might, learn to join benefit 'clubs and lay up small sums of money in savings' banks, in order to provide against temporary depression and other unforeseen casualties. That'Article 1, the Poor-law Board would be not unwil ling to relax in cases 'of hardshipsf; and, as to Article t 5, Sir John Trollope spoke at some length, and referrede: the abuses existing, prior to the Poor-law Amendment Act, at Act, of giving relief in aid of wages ; h_ subject that had frequently been discusstedathil very man a Parlia ment ; and that it was very hard to make little better off than the person relieved e ms , in the in answer to support of the latter. Sir John Tr? P irlap°raeCticable, stated observations as to Article 6 being that the Poor-law Board did not_intend the setting up of pauper labour against indeeperonduegnhttlaibnotuor,coormtpheattittihone former should in any way h e b with the latter ; and that th ir opinion was that it would he more satisfactory to l t e b r e poor man, as well as to the s . hould be employed and not Bratpayer, that the . forn eat the bread of idleness , and that . the most suitable would be the sweeping of streets and employment the preparing of materials _ for repairs of roads. Si r John Trollope also further explained that A r ti c l e 1 0 was intended to bring the Poor-law Board and boirds of uardians into more harmonious workin g , and to provide g for particular hardships that might arise under the other articles. Tha: , the Poor-law Board were always ready to hear and consider applications of all kinds, and that they always listened and attended to all complaints. That the complaint of the lowest pauper would not be unattended to, and that their door was always open. In answer to a question from Mr. Cobbett, M.P., Sir John Trollope assured the deputation that boards of guardians should be beldharmless to the present time, and that instructions should be given to the auditors ac cordingly. And at the conclusion Sir John Trollope promised that a written reply should be forwarded to the deputa tion in the course of a few days. _ Sir Charles Napier is a better general than he is a lawyer, or he never would have suffered himself to be matched, as he was yesterday, against the Ameers of the Queen's Bench. Meeanee is nothing to first day of term. The public will very generally sympathise with the gallant officer's indignation at the foul aspersions brought against him for his conduct during the campaign of Scinde, but, if he be wise, let him rather leave the care of his defence to the justice of his contem poraries and of posterity than to lawyers and law courts. Every one in this outspoken country who has raised himself to any degree of civil or military eminence has been exposed to like attacks, and has in his proper person proved how little calumny can avail against an honest man. Surely Sir Charles Napier might call to mind the rule of action invariably followed by his 'late illustrious com mander on like occasions. Is there one of us who has not heard that the Duke of Wellington was " surprised?' at the Duchess of Richmond's ball at Brussels, or that during the course of the subsequent battle he ensconced himself snuglyamid the friendly leaves of a tall tree by way of avoiding the enemy's bullets ? Only conceive the rage of any one that bears the name of Napier on being told that during the progress of a heady fight, he was only to be found at the top of the highest poplar in the neighbourhood ! We are not aware that the Duke of Wellington ever instructed his solicitor to take legal steps to defend his reputation against calumnies of this kind. It may be said, however, that some charges are so ridiculous that they fall to the ground of themselves. An accomplished gene ral who has spent half a century in the service, and has successfully fought pitched battle after pitched battle, may afford to' augh at charges of timidity and mismanagement ; but it is otherwise if he be accused of harshness, of cruelty, of peculation. Even in cases of this kind, we must recur to the example of Sir Charles Napier's old commander. There have been plenty of critics who have stated that most of the great Peninsular victories might, with prudence, have been avoided ; that they were the acts of a man who was more studious of • his own personal elevation than solicitous for his coun ,try,'s g00d... .AlLwhexeraember the history of the - - time will be perfectly familiar with the accusations of which we speak. The siege of Badajoz, for' ex ample, was represented by some as an unnecessary operation ; by others, who admitted its necessity, it was considered to have been conducted with a criminal disregard of human life, and all for the purpose of furthering the Duke's anibitiets 'views. So, again,' with regard to the storming of San Se bastian. Every obnoxious epithet was applied to . the Conqueror of the Peninsula, either for acts of his own men, over which he had no control, or A , for the acts of the enemy. It was said that the' Duke of Wellington ordered that the town should be set on fire in order to wreak his wrath upon the innabitants ; it is now known that the conflagra tion was the act of the French General, and that the Duke's efforts were solely directed to getting mastery over the flames. Such is the way in which Sir Charles Napier's old leader has been dealt with by malignant or incompetent persons. 'From time to time we are fully aware, wheii the occasion and the audience were suitable, he uttered a few words of stern and soldierlike denial—that 'was all. He never went to law about the matter;;, the chances are, he never gave it a serious thought: He' was great enough,---every man should be great .enough —to live down slander. The mischief appears to be this in minds of a particular class :—They are painfully sensitive to a single voice of censure ; they pass over or seem not to discern the approval of the thousands or millions who would come forward in their defence, if defence were really , necessary. , The single Mordecai at the gate 'gives more pain than all the splendours of the palace can afford gratification. Now, with regard to this very Review article which has roused Sir Charles Napier to such mighty wrath, did it ever enter his mind to consider what his pre sent position is ; and why it is what it is ? Is there a name more honoured in the illustrious list of British officers ? If any man, woman, or child in the three kingdoms really and truly believed that Sir Charles Napier is an admirable mixture of the wholesale assassin and painstaking pickpocket— that he caused the Scindian. and British troops to cut each other's throats for ,his own private ends, and wound all up by filching the petticoats of the ladies at Hyderabad, can he for a moment suppose that, instead of being where he is, he would not long since have been dismissed from the service, and excluded from decent society ? Why, then, this over-sensitiveness ?—why this superfluous at tempt at rectification and justification ? Sir Charles Napier won a great battle and conquered a great province ; his brother wrote a history of his opera tions that is nearly as good as tho battle itself, and there should be an end of the whole affair. Every man's part is assigned to him already in the public judgment. Sir Charles Napier may feel very con fident that his share in this achievement is not ac cepted as that of a cut-throat or peculator. We cannot but wonder at the singular want of discre tion displayed by those who could advise the gallant old soldier to bring such a case, upon a criminal in formation, before the Court of Queen's Bench. Ir respective of all legal considerations, of what benefit would it have been to Sir Charles Napier, could he have succeeded in causing poor Mr. Murray to be impaled, or garotted, or whatever the appro priate punishment may be for the gentleman who undertakes the commercial department of calumny ? He would not have made Meeanee and Hyderabad one whit clearer to the apprehension of those who were determined not to be convinced ; all who were open to conviction had received it long ago. The best counsel we can give Sir Charles Napier— and we offer it with every respect for his great ability and glorious achievements—is for the future to avoid legal polemics, as far as may be. If a great man is too ready to hand over the care of his reputation to the lawyers, the people—the natural trustees in this respect —are apt to think them selves discharged of their trust. Let him be satis fied with the conviction that by the united voice of his fellow-countrymen he has already been chosen as the officer possessing the highest talents for com mand and the greatest military genius of any now to be found in the British Army List. That opinion remains unaltered. Surely this is a suffi cient compensation for a little transitory nonsense. History readily distinguishes between a Tilly and a Wellington, and history nowadays follows closely on events.—Times. ~ Cr ',... ; -17(`` THE AUSTRALIAN GOLD FIELDS.

EAR OF _TARITATION.-41.71 inquest was, held by Mr. Herford, coroner for the. borough of Manchester, on Tuesday, on view of the,body of John Heywood, a carter, aged 63, who drowned himself on Monday morning. The old man had seen better days, but was now reduced to receive parish relief, and for the last two years he had been accustomed to sleep on the long settle in a beer-house kitchen. This shelter, how ever,' was to be taken from him, for the landlord w as about to leave the house, and he had no other place to go to ; he was, moreover, of such drunken habits that his weekly pay of is. 6d. from the union hadbeen stopped by the relieving officer, who refused to give the ratepayers money, to' a man whom he had himself seen drunk three times within a week. He gave him a note for the work house, but Heywood declared that he would not use it, he would starve first ; and when his pay was stopped, he said that if he had sixpence he would take some lauda mim, and be humbugged no longer. He was found in a ttib of water quite dead, his head and arms in the water, and his legs nearly touching the ground, so that his suicide was most determined. The jury returned a ver dict of "Drowned himself in a fit of temporary insanity." P4' o 31
