WELLINGTON DIED SEPT. 14, 1852.- These words, encircled by a device of cypress and laurel entwined, are formed into, and appe a r on, the surface of a 11A 1 ' v t' 4 _ l ! , and although the colour is necessarily black, on a black " ( mu, yet the design is so far distinct as to present a desirable and consistent medium for national mourning at the approaching g r and public obsequies. Tbe invention i s th e fi rs t p a t en t recor d e d under the new Act , w hich came into o p era ti on on the I st of O cto b er , the material from Which the Hatbands are made being the same fine elastic cloth orl tiinnily introduced by the patentees in the manufacture of the well irwn garment called NICOLL'S PALETOT (of w hich the late I llustrious Chief was one of the earliest patrons). ..Armlets are made of Crape, according to the Regulation of the VurnY, with the addition of the above device, and it is probable that oo th Armlet and Hatband may be preserved as a relic by the Soldier and Civilian.

Rail ways have not yet as a:system been constructed in Switzer 'lllll (the only existing lin e b e i ng one o f 14 miler, connect i ng B a d en With Zurich), but this has not arisen from the country offering any serious engineering difficulties, nor from indifference to their advan tages, nor from the traffic being insufficient to guarantee an ade quate return for the outlay, but; from the fact that railways have ° WY recently been introduced into the great States surrounding S witzerland, and the attention of capitalists was naturally first attracted by the more important lines in those countries connecting the Capitals of Europe. The large operations for constructing these international lines being in an advanced state, approaching to corn ', pluton, the attention of the Federal Government of Switzerland was anxiously turned to the subject; and, by its direction, Mr. Robert Stephenson, the eminent English engineer, after a eareftil survey , reported upon certain lines of railway, which he recommended as • the most easy and practicable in that country. The first of these lines, commencing at Merges and Lausanne, on the Lake of Geneva, and terminating at Yverdon, on the Lake of Neufchatel, it is the object of the present Company to construct important section of the system ; not only as the This is the most • lo le possible line of traffic between the two Lakes, but a s th e main line ef railway communication trom France Baal Sardinia into the heart of Switzerland by Geneva. as con The population of the Swiss valle t y r s ast g e Te y, ra i l t l n y 2 1 , s 2i c n om pe p ran ute n d . a in t 2 ,' 300 persons per square league thandistrict thi this traversed averag e must contain ma , ugland, and 1,450 in Franco ; but the by the proposed Railway particularn mere I° r besides the inhabitants of the important towns of Geneva and Lausanne, there are no less than 68 towns and villages on and Within the close influence of the line, with a large active and moving To o • t r cantons, through which the lines pass, will grant conces sions.

By SAMUEL LA'MERT, VT, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Hone racy Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, Loudon, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, eradation in Man hood,-and premature decay at all stages of lif d e, g than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of roldicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Lr. La'Mert, himself one of the few legally 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 ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. 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 and inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

MOSES and SON frequently employ three .112.4. words to designate two classes of Goods, one the Depart ment of Luxury and Taste, as that of elegant VESTS and TROWSERS, ifis ten thousand novel FASHIONS, STYLES, and SHAPES, for which their Establishments are universally celebrated ; the other for those STYLISH inventons in COATS and OVER COATS, for which they have gained a world-wide fame, yet never were three words so practicably used as at the present season. ELEGANCE and USEFULNESS is displayed in such an array of fancy VESTS and TROWSERS as have not been presented on any previous SEASON. But E. MOSES and SON'S innumerable styles of WRAPPERS, CAPES. &C., &c., the names of which are too numerous for recapitulation, and the pecularities of which no words can describe, will, when purchased and worn, be an incontestible proof of E. MOSES and SON'S entire precedence over every other House—a distinction they have long enjoyed, and which they will never loose. Raving purchased to their usual magnificent amount previous to any advance in the price of MATERIALS, their DRESS for this season will be charged very considerably LOWER PRICES, and be FAR BETTER in QUALITY than any offered elsewhere. 1 EMIGRANTS PROVIDE FOR SEA OR LAND. E. MOSES and:SON'S OUTFITS are suitable for any passage at any season ; they are prepared for any climate or occupation ; they have been procured by thousands of Emigrants, and at the same low prices, and of the same matchless quality, they can he secured br thousands more. Having nt, attends,' to the OUTFITTING} ItUsINFISS an the largest scale, E. MOSES and SON have the highest credentials of merit, having larger and more tradesmanlike transactions than any other house, they can furnish the most com plete and the best OUTFITS for the least money, and that every accommodation may be furnished to Emigrants at their Establish ment, they keep a separate department entirely for Outfits. All necessary information relative to sailing of vessels, cost of passage, &c., may be had on application, or Post _free to any part of the Kingdom. CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the public against imposition, having learned that the untradesmanlike falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's the same concera," has been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have No CONNExToN WITH ANT OTHER HOUSE IN oR OUT or LONDON, except their own Establishments, as follows Londcn City Establishment, 154, 155, 156, and 157, Minories, 83 84, 85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church, all communicating.

Many a burst of merriment has echoed above " Hood's Comic A nnual," from the lips of all classes. For mane a year he our Christmas firesides with racy hamour, that never *wearied cheered by its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was he known as the Poet of Mirth: but the higher development of his genius and the nobler 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, so that it may be Land witnout the help of a grave-yard servant, and ail who have laughed at his inimitable wit, or sighed over his human tenderness, arc 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. Fir the furthering of this design, the following gentlemen, mem bers of the Whittingt, I Club, have formed themselves into a Com mittee : Mr. J. Balfour Mr. R. W. Roberts I Mr. Campbell Clarke Mr. W.

TIMES.—Mr. Charles Pearson's plan for a Central City Terminus addresses itself to a problem the very magnificence of which invites a solution. The ques tion is, how to take the dense population of the me tropolis, and particularly of the city, to the various railway termini with comfort and speed, but without increasing the street traffic to an inconvenient and dangerous excess. Had the importance of that ques tion been duly acknowledged twenty years ago, and had Parliament or any authoritative body foreseen and realized the present growth of the metropolis and the increase of population and trade, undoubtedly Mr. C. Pearson's labours would long sines! have been ren dered unnecessary, and every metrdpolitan railway would have been allowed, nay, positively required, to push its feeders at least to the two gieat foci of this metropolis, the City and Charing-cross. But that opportunity came, and is gone. The metropolitan railways are brought to a dead standin the suburbs, and immense fabrics, covering many 'acres, interpose a practical, and in some instances a material obstacle, to the further extension of the lines. The result is, that the many thousands who spend their days in London and their nights in the country, not to speak of mere occasional travellers, have to spend very much more of their precious time in traversing the streets to get to their stations than in travelling thence on the rail to their several homes. Meanwhile, from this and from other traffic, the great thoroughfares have become so crowded as to be often impassable, so noisy that there is no living near them ; and so dirty, that in spite of street orderlies, and other sanitary militia, they fill the air with ammoniacal-va c . ror dust. As Mr. C. Pearson mentions, within .ort - a period as ten years the number of cabs and of tradesmen's light carts has doubled, and cheap "busses" now run in all but continuous streams the whole length of every diameter that can be drawn through the metropolis. These vehicles, indeed, now follow one another so closely on our two principal lines of traffic, that every body feels how easily the aid of horses might be dis pensed with and the vehicles made the links of one chain moved by machinery—that is, if the process could be so managed as to allow passengers to be taken up and put down as freely as they now are. This species of traffic has come to such a pass since the general lowering of fares, that the disorder must ere long work its own remedy in one form or another. Such are acme of the evils to be met before they come worse. But they are not the only inducements to Mr. Pearson's grand scheme. Its principal claims are of a topographical character. In the centre of the metropolis, within the limits of the city, between the two great thoroughfares, near the Thames and one of its old bridges, there happens to be a vast opening, at present of a singularly useless character. Except - , indeed, in the Arctic Circle or the interior of Atrica, no where is there so much good space thrown away as in the area called Far ringdon-street. 'Northward from this area, along the valley of the Fleet river, runs a vast clearance, to be continued, whether for a railway, or not, half the way up to King's-cross. This is only part of the topographical case for Mr. Pearson's plan. The strongest part remains to be told. It lies in the cir cumstance that this central desert of London is so much below the general level as to be the greatest nuisance of the metropolis. That nuisance can only be cured by the creation of two levels, for the upper and lower traffic, the upper traffic chiefly east and west, the lower north and south. Now, that which is the only conceivable cure for the natural 'Moon ceniences of the site happens to be an indispensable requisite for Mr. Charles Pearson's plan of a Central City Terminus, which indeed would be wholly im practicable without two distinct level , . When so many difficulties are to be met, and may be met by one comprehensive solution, we cannot be surprised at the absorbing enthusiasm with which so ingenious and so daring a reformer as Mr. Charles Pearson has followed out his scheme. Everything seems to be so pat to the purpose, that like the parts of a Chinese puzzle, the only thing to be done is to put them 'to gether. It seems a mere question of fitting. "What is one man's bane," says the proverb, "is another man's weal." It would be the bane of most cities to have such a place as the Fleet ditch and Holborn valley running through it, and intersecting the prin. cipal thoroughfares. Under the scheme now pro posed it becomes the very making of London, by providing the area find double, levels requisite for a central railway terminus. But when all these promising antecedents have been arrayed in the moat flattering forms, we come to that ri gorous teat by which so much ingenuity and public spirit are nipped in the bud. 'Will the scheme pay ? Will it pay to create a dotible level over this vast area; to purchase an immense amount of space covered with substantial headings in the heart of the metropolis ; to construct great markets and warehouses, open to both the upper and lower levels ; to carry four lines of rails, all underground, more than a mile from Holborn-valley to King's cross, through buildings which, inferior as they are, would run up to a considerable purchase-money ; to effect a convenient junction with the Great Northern Railway ; and, after all, to do this chiefly, if not solely, for the convenience of that onerailway? There is the great hitch. The proposed line could be brought to the King's. cross passenger station with comparative ease, and by a very direct course. But to communicate with the London and North-Western Railway it would be necessary first to take the pas sengers to the Camden-town and West India Docks Junction line, and then delay every train on the London and North-Western five or ten minutes for the convenience of out-bound passengers at the Camden-town station. The up -trains would be liable to a similar inconvenience. We do not see how this is to be remedied, and recent occurrence indicates the danger of increasing the delayp and obstructions at Camden-town station, which is efridently not large enough for its legitimate purpose as a goods station. So much for the London and North-Western. As to the Great 'Western and all the other railways, the difficulty of bringing the Central City Terminus to bear upon them, seems to increase the further we get round the metropolis. It is evident that severed miles of additional railway would have to be made for the purpose, and the experience of the railway now in operation from Camden-town to the West India Docks sufficiently proves that, convenient as these circuitous routes may be to some localities, they are very tedious affairs for the through passengers. We believe that a man may walk from Camden-town to Fenchurch-street in us little time as the railway will take him, so roundabout is its course, and so frequent its stoppages. Here is the real difficulty of Mr. Pearson's plan, and it is confessed in the in difference of all the railway companies, except the Great Northern, which evidently regards his plan merely as a means of pushing into tkie city at the cost of the adventurous public. We should be delighted to see these difficulties got over, and a friendly reunion of all the railways effected in the valley of the fleet; but it is a question of engineering, and, though we seem to see our way plain cnough bo tb. .....cpuotlon of a city terminus, according to Mr. Pearson's very pretty and ingenious mode), we do not see our way so plain to the junction of the metropolitan lines, excepting only the Great Northern. We must wait for an explanation on this critical point before we can bestow on the scheme that unreserved approbation which it certainly would I be a pleasure to give to the result of such ingenuity and pains. " HERALD.—Her Majesty's Opposition is going - quietly to—the dogs, wherever those insatiable ani mals are to be found. They will have tough work of •t it, but are hungry; and the sight of the plump 1 1 3 Quaker Bright, arm-in-arm with Cobden and Lord John, lean though they may be, will make the afore said dogs lick their lips. Yesterday we called atten tion to one or two mournful notes issuing from the enemy's camp, through the wailing pipe of the Globe —the air being, "It won't do t ' Let us hear now the Observer of Sunday last—whilom one of the loudest in announcing that Ministers would have to encounter, on the opening of the session, an over powering opposition, which would scatter them to the winds. Hear now " We, believe we may certainly announce that the com mencement of the session will exhibit no regular and concerted movement on the part of the Opposition.. . . We believe we are not premature in stating that no im mediate steps will be taken by the leaders of the Oppo sition to displace the present Ministry—such as it is.. . Or regular organised, concerted opposition there will be actually none—at least not on the opening of the ses sion." Thus we see that the Opposition is rapidly melting away, like a series of dissolving views, before the warm, but insufferable reality of a powerful Minis try. The Liberal prints are driven to all sorts of shifts to account for a fact which is patent to all the world besides—namely, that the Ministry stands its ground and gains ground because of the country's confidence in their characters, and satisfaction with what that Ministry has already done. Nowhere appears a solitary symptom of real distrust or dissa tisfaction ; and as for the Tines, its artillery has failed to dislodge or even disturb a Ministry whom it has assailed from day to day, from week to to week, from month to month, with a fell but fer -1 tile pertinacity, that has served only to render its own sayings absurd, and it se lf r idi c ul o us. Of all its outrages upon public f ee li ng and opinion, none can compare with the use to which it has turned the death of the great warrior statesman, lying yet unburied only in order that his obsequies may be celebrated with a magnificence becoming his mighty memory. We doubt whether there was one of its readers that did not revolt from its audacious and heartless assertion, or insinuation, that those obsequies had been delayed in order to extract from it—political capital ! After a considerable abstinence, the Times of yesterday re curs to the pending obsequies for the purpose of re presenting the death of the Duke as an instance of " extraordinary luck 1" to the Ministry ; and pro• ceeds in a shocking strain of levity and heartlessness to run a parallel between the entombment of the illus trious departed and that of the so-called principle of Protection ! It suggested to us whether, in such an article, we could not see the entombment of all that is dignified and high-toned in British journalism. Providence has called away the great man whom we have lost, when it saw fit to do so, and no one can have deplored more sincerely or more profoundly the loss of so great a guide than the Noble Earl now at the head of the Administration, and whose political opi nions, in accordance with those of his Grace, have lost in his death the immense support which they derived from his presence and sanction. But the Earl and his Ministry adhere to those principles of sound policy, wisdom, and moderation, which ever actuated him who is gone, and, we doubt not, share largely in his single-minded determination to discharge their duty and despise calumny, come from what quarter it may. As British journalists, we protest against so foul a violation of the sanctity,of the tomb—to cruel and indecent:o outrage upon the wounded feelings of the country, tom` isiat -to bb teen in the Times of yes terday. Deplorable and desperate indeed must be the cause which requires thus to be supported. ADVERTISER.—The little episode between Mr. Sergeant Shee and Mr. Lucas, at the Copference of the Friends of Religious Equality, was amusing, if not remarkably instructive. Mr. Maurice Leyne has joined in the squabble, and now we have two Irish Romanists of some note maintaining that religious persecution neither is, nor ever was, a principle of their Church, against Mr. Lucas, who defends the ferocious bigotry of Leopold of Tuscany, on the prin ciples of Catholic toleration and religions equality. If each of the disputants is perfectly sincere, either the world has been in error for centuries, or two Irishmen, to whom it gives credit for a liberal educa• tion, are totally ignorant of a well-known fact. We have on several occasions taken notice that Roman Catholic gentlemen are profoundly ignorant of the history of their own sect, and the doctrines and maxims of their priests, and in so doing we have, of course, taken their own assertions as uttered and intended in good faith. As an instance, we may men tion that Mr. O'Gorman Mahon told Mr. Spooner and the House, that though he bad been brought up in a Jesuits' college, he had never heard of maxims and doctrines which were fit only for a priesthood of Sodom and Gomorrah. We then gave him full credit for truth in an admission which proved that he heti not so much as seen the celebrated Provincial Letters of Pascal ; a n d th a t h e h a d never h ea rd that copies of the Jesuit' books were publicly burned by the com mon hangman at Paris, in 1762, after a formal sen tence by Parliament, for containing the same senti ments and maxims as those which Mr. Spooner had just read to the House from the class books in common use at Maynooth. Though nothing is more easy than to go into a public library and ascertain the fact, by consulting the works of the Jesuits them selves, here was a Popish legislator proclaiming is public his total ignorance of matters that are notorious to the rest of the world. Persons who are in this wretched and benighted condition, may well be ex pected to swallow down all the monstrous absurdi ties and impostures, which are so thickly presented to them by their astute instructors and guides. Mr. Sergeant Shee affirms, that religious persecu • tion is not a principle of the Church of Rome, and Mr. Lucas that it is. There is no middle path between them : it must be one or the other. If the learned gentleman were ever at Rome, be may have observed a long and gloomy building, near the Pope's palace. It is the material sign of the princi ple vindicated by his opponent. It is the Inquisition, which not long since was formally re-established for the suppression of heresy, as the religion of the Gospel, " the pure Gospel," using the words in the accusation and sentence of the Medial, is stigmatized by an authority, which has dared to oall the Gospel of Christ, " a Gospel of Man, and a Gospel of the Devil." We presume that Mr. Sergeant Shee will not venture to deny the universal practice of his Church, in regard to all other religions, where she has had the power to slay with the sword, the axe, the gibbet, the rack, and the blazing pile, and that the question is whether the Church has always acted thus in direct opposition to her ancient principle of tolera tion and religious equality. It is not improbable that the stale artifice of mental reservation has been brought into play in this case, and that there is some paltry quibbling with words. The thing, however — that is, the principle of persecution—still remains, and we find it difficult to believe, that this gentleman is really ignorant that it forms a part of the canon law, which every priest by the eleventh article of the creed of Pius IV. is sworn to "receive, and profess all other things defined by the sacred canons?' Popes and doctors have not been quite so mealy-mouthed its these " Friends of Re li g ious Equality." 'W e read thus in the bull of Gregory VII., " We absolve all subjects from their oaths of fealty which they have sworn to princes excommunicate ;' in that of Gregory IX., " We excommunicate all heretical princes, and absolve their subjects from their oaths and duties of allegiance ;" and that of Pius V., entitled " The Damnation and Excommunication of Elizabeth, of England, and her adherents, with an addition of lother punishments," we read a passage, which must be given entire : "S. 4. And, moreover, we declare her to be deprived of her pretended title to the kingdom aforesaid, and of all dominion, dignity, and privilege whatsoever. " S. 5. And also the nobility, subjects, and people of the said kingdom, and all others, who have in any sort sworn unto her, to bo for ever absolved from any such oath, and all manner of daty, of dominion, allegiance, and obeditnce ; as we also do, by authority of these pre sents, absolve them, and do deprive the same Elizabeth of her pretended title to the kingdom, and all other things aforesaid. And we do command and interdict all and every of the noblemen, subjects, and people, and others aforesaid, that they presume not to obey her moni ions, mandates, and laws. And those who do the con rary, we do innodate with the like sentence of ana hems." This malevolent bigot had no doubt about the prin ciple ; neither had the author of the Papal decree, " Heretics may be lawfully spoiled of their goods, though it had better be done by authority." " Heretics may not be termed either children or kindred, but. according to the old law, 'thy hand shall be upon them to spill their blood." Liguori was canonizd in 1839, and Cardinal Wiseman has strongly com mended his works. He had as little doubt of the principle as the Popes. He writes of heretics thus : " If the acolved oonf,iss his crime, the genteuce is to be given ; if not, he is to be led to conviction, or the torture, because torture is a help to proof, when argu ments and signs are very efficacious, and thus a full proof may be elicited." He also writes—" Heresy is so noxious a pest, that it may require a severe remedy." We presume that Pius V., when he insti gated the Bartholomew massacre, was not acting in opposition to the principle of his Church ; and that Pius IX., who recently denounced Professor Nuytz, of Turin, for denying that the Church has power to coerce heretics, was persuaded that this principle exists. Besides, what is the foundation of his con cordat with Spain, that no religion but the Popish is to be tolerated there ? or the meaning of the oath of Popish bishops—" All heretics, schismatics, and rebels against our said Lord and his successors, I will persecute and oppose to the utmost of my power ?" Mr. Maurice Leyne staunchly contends against th e existence of the principle of persecuti▪ on, which is honestly admitted by the bea ds of his Church. "As a Catholic and Irish man," he wri▪ tes to Mr. Shee, " I was delighted at your bold and vehement denunciation of the barbarous tyranny of the Duke of Tuscany." Again h e says, "It is indeed an odious and impious doctrine that men are to be imprisoned f or religious offences, and chastised for maintaining any form o f doctrine, or f o r rea di ng any work bearing on religious questions." The canon laws, Papal bulls and decrees, and Popish doctors say quite the contrary; but English Protestants are never again to pay the least attention to Popi s h protesta tions. lie continues thus But the notion that it is a crime for aman to read the Word o f G o d in his pr i va te house, is a theory so false, foul, and unholy, that one can only wonder how it could gain support ers among the followers of a religion which has for three centuries battled against persecution and pro scription." If he will turn to the encyclical letters of Gregory XVI., Leo XII., and Pius VII., he will find the very reverse so strongly insisted upon, that others can only wonder that even an Irish Papist can have the assurance to write so much at variance with the fact. They have battled for three c enturies against persecution. Be it so.ln those centuries occurred,T the massacre of the Protestants by More and 0 4 eale, end also the other massacre of Protestants at Drogheda. The following is a burst of Irish indignation. In re- ference to Mr. Lucas's hos est claim to the principle of persecution as a Romish dogma, Mr. Leyne says— " I know not whether this teaching be heresy, but it is a startling and monster dogma, and one which would justify an extended application of the bloody propagandism of Mehemet or of Cromwell! " This is another instance of the gross ignorance of Roman Catholics respecting well known things. Cromwell never was a propagandist. After the horrible butch ery of many thousands of Protestants, he was sent into Ireland both to punish the murderers and to pro tect such as had escaped from their fury. " A horri ble iplot," says Mr. Daniel Wilson, his biographer, " had been organized for blotting out the very name of Protestantism, and erasing every trace of English rule or occupation in Ireland." Cromwell made short work of the "Levellers," as those friends of re ligious equality called themselves, for in two months after the massacre at Drogheda he was engaged in the war with the Scotch. Yet, so little do the Irish know of history, that they fancy that this great warrior and statesman had time or care to trouble himself with converting their countrymen in any shape, or by any means whatever. He was sent to punish Popish murderers and protect the Protestants, and he did both so rapidly and effectually, that ever since his name has been a bugbear; and yet a man is found in the 19th century gravely writing of a soldier statesman that he was a " bloody Propagandist." CHRONICLE.—AIthough the summer has passed away without any new attempt having been made on Cuba by the adventurous citizens of the United States, it is certain that American ambition has not aban doned the hope of annexing the " Queen of the Antilles." The failure of the expeditions of last year seems only to have rendered the annexationists more cautious in their proeeedings.— Timeadasstleaseadenaaa. were, it is true, discountenanced by the Federal Go vernment, and the feeble Executive at Washington did what it could to frustrate them ; but the instinct of aggression is not so easily repressed. The reckless adventurers who infest the great cities of the Union, far from being warned by the fate of their unfortunate comrades, appear to be only waiting for an opportu nity of renewing the invasion with a better prospect of success. The design is openly avowed, and it is not condemned by public opinion. The truth is, a great portion of the American people, intoxicated with prosperity, and lending a greedy ear to the flat tery of demagogues, firmly believe that the empire of the New World belongs to them ; and they accord ingly look with indulgent complacency upon the efforts of their advanced guard of irregulars. Such a state of feeling gives great latitude to the energy of those who are willing to take the initiative, and to encounter the risks of an annexation campaign. American opinion does not scan very critically in fr actions of international right, and is fully prepared to adopt the advantageous results which may be obtained by the marauding citizens of the Union. This process has already been twice gone through, at the ex pense of a feeble and almost unresisting power. The annexation of Texas and the conquest of California originated in the aggression of private adventurers upon the rights of Mexico. Their success was ap plauded by their country men, and the Executive of the United States was at length compelled to support a movement so creditable to the enlightened patrio tism of its authors. After such a precedent, it is not surprising that the invaders of Cubs persist in their euterprize, confidently believing that a fortunate conjuncture may at any time force their Government to recognize and to second their designs. The ex peditions which last year left the ports of the United States to assail the territories of a friendly Power failed at every point. As they were not of sufficient force to meet the Spanish troops in the field, whilst the Creole population refused to rise in their favour, the affair was speedily finished ; and the discomfiture of the Filibusters damped, for a time, the enthusiasm of those who had projected and prepared the invasion. So complete and hopeless a failure was of course regarded, in official quarters, in its true light of a piratical incursion, and the Federal Government did not venture to countenance an outrage far which no excuse could be offered. Nevertheless, despite all its fatal consequences, the adventure was not generally reprobated, as it ought to have been, by American opinion. The associations by which it was organized still survive, and they include a large number of per sons, who are said to have considerable funds at their command. Their hopes have been revived by recent events in Cubs, and although their future movements will probably be less precipitate than these of last year, it is certain that they are prepared to take advantage of any opportunity which may arise from the dissensions between the Spanish Go vernment and its colonial subjects. The dis affected Creoles receive assistance and encourage ment from the United States ; their journals are printed in America, and are introduced by American agents; and supplies of arms and ammunition have been furnished from the same quarter. In fact, Spain has to deal not only with its own discontented sub jects, but also with the American sympathizers, who are most active in their hostility, and who, whenever they are threatened, appeal to their countrymen for " moral support," and to the Federal Government for protection. Under such circumstances, we can scarcely blame the Spanish authorities, at a moment when they are menaced with an insurrection in Cuba, for taking any precautions which may appear neces sary to repress foreign interference in the affairs of the island. It may or may not be true that unneces sary and injudicious rigour has been used in prevent ing the landing of American citizens at the Havana yet, all things considered, we cannot condemn the Spanish Government for exercising a right which it undoubtedly possesses, nor can we subscribe to the resolutions passed at "indignation meetings" at New Orleans and elsewhere. The President, however, seems to have been so far influenced by what has occurred as to have dispatched a man-of-war to the Havana, to protect the American flag. We shall be glad if it turns out that this step has been taken with the view of controlling American citizens, rather than of coercing or intimidating the Spanish authorities ; but it is clear that every means will he employed by the anti-Cuban party to implicate their Government in the matter, and to persuade the Americans that their flag has been insulted by the officers of a European Power. It is very far from our intention to impeach the good faith of the Executive at Washington in these transactions. On the contrary, we are disposed to believe that Mr. Fillmore has done all that lay in his power to prevent the designs of the Filibusters from being carried into execution. Bat, as has been seen on former occasions, the moderation of the President is of little avail to restrain the aggressive propensities of American citizens, or to keep within bounds the national instinct of acquisitiveness. The exaggerated licence of individual action which exists in the United States, owing to the enormous field open to the rest less portion of their population, has produced a habit of lawlessness, which is, to say the least, extremely dangerous to those countries which enjoy the doubtful a en dvantagethe oiepteurbriiitoo.riallocothnetigouasietybteoforeus, free is a con stant and a scarcely concealed conspir ac y a g ainst th a e n re d Spain, for which not a shadow of provocation has been given. The " Order of the Lone Star"—as the association of freebooters is romantically designated— carries on its operations in a time of profound peace; and when the Spanish Government, naturally alarmed at demonstrations so unmistakeably hostile, institutes precautions against their authors and abettors, at tempts are made to raise a cry that injuries have been done to Americans which must be avenged by arms. It is simply the fable of the wolf and the lamb over again. Yet this flagrant wrong is sanctioned by the public sen timent of the Union, and the pious moralists of Boston and Philadelphia enter no protest against it. The truth is, the American people are too apt to view these things with reference to their own political ad vantage, rather than to the strict rules of morality. They know that the Cuban Creoles are an effete race, d and they believe that Spain has not str en g th to ! fend her colony. They also perceive that the a acqu i- sition of the island would bring w ith it th e or] oliti of the Gulf of Mexico; and w hilst Sontr e r r p owing cians look to annexation to comp ensate t all the adventu between the Free and Slave States,et for the plunder, rous spirits of the Union are o e c ag 8 " - ",,fal war.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. "Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851. —" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Sperma torrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately described, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular, May 5, 1852. —" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preliminary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of he subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the ' brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the mattar."—Dublin Medical Press, April 18,1852.

On this side of the Atlantic, t3o much importance is attached to the language of popu lar speakers in the States, and to the resolutions of public meetings ; but American politicians know their countrymen better, end look to the official acts and declarations of their Government. So long, therefore, as the latter refrains from countenancing the unprincipled designs of a section of its eitizas, we may reasonably hope that wise counsels will pre vail, and that the iniquitous crusade against Cuba will be stopped. The real danger lies in the aggres sive spirit which appe'ars to have become a part of the American character, and which some political acci dent may at any ti me encourage an d s ti mu l ate till it is beyond the power of repression or control.

Yesterday morning an accident of a serioua nature at the Old Brighton Railway Station at R2dhill, occasioned by the 10 o'clock express train from Brighton running transversely into s " pick-up" train. The pick up was being shunted from the down line to the "up" prior to its being ran into the siding, and by some strange neglect at the time when the express train was due. The ougine and tender;,of the latter were crippled, the tender being torn from its bed and twisted round, end the solid tim ber on which it rested rent into small particles. Four of the carriages attached to the express train were much shattered on the side which came into collision. The first carriage, which was loaded with luggage, was greatly broken up, and looked as if a battery of grape shot had been poured into it. The debris of the pick-up was scat tered about on all sides, and the ground between the rails of the up line was torn up for several hundred yards. One of the carriages of the pick-up was turned over and thrown off the line. Information was forwarded by the telegraph to London, and Mr. Edward Cock, head sur geon at Guy's Hospital, was sent down by special train to render assistance. In the meantime dispatches were sent for Mr. Harris, Dr. Holman, and Mr. Steele, sur geons from Reigate, and they promptly arrived. Con sidering the injuries sustained by the carriages, it seems extraordinary that no lives were lost. Many of the passengers received cuts and contusions, chiefly on the head and face, from the force by which they were thrown one against the other : but the only injury incurred of a serious nature was by a lady who resides at Regency square, Brighton, who sustained a compound fracture of the leg, and was attended home by Dr. Holman. A large body of men under Mr. Rigby, the contractor, were quickly set to work, and in the course of a short time rendered the line fit for traffic. Four of the men, viz., James Clark, guard to the goods train, Brewer, switchman at the goods station, Wm. Lamb, driver to the goods train, and Hallows, stoker to the goods train, were apprehended and taken in custody to gate, where they were brought before Freshheld, Esq., chairman, A. Frazer, Biq a and Sir B. Brodie..

It would appear therefore, that, supposing the income or the expenditure the of Corporation to be the KAltso as in the last year, the Council would only have at their diEposal an annual surplus little exceeding 2,000. AMERICAN Wu—From the returns of the Board of Trade it appears that the importation of American oil has presented a steady annual iacrease, :some idea of which may be formed when it is stated that, in the year 1848, the quantity imported was 536 . tons, whilst in 1850: it reached 3,145 tons. ahe Greenland fishery, of late years, has materially diminished. In the Southern Pacific we have not half-a-doz-n ships; whilst the French and Americana number seven or eight hundred ; and our colonial bay and sea whaling, as car ried on at New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land, has been destroyed by the temptations which high wages have presented to shore employment. Thus, the total value of oil and w haltbote exported from Sycltey and P er t Philip has dreadfully fallen off is ten years, from 27,4794 in the year IS4I, to 29,368/. in 1860, and ibis latter slim included 2,2081., the va l ue of ail so ld by foreign chips for stoma and repairs.
