By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D. VT, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin bur7h, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &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, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, 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 medicine both in this country and hi continental Europe. I The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. 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. ~coNsE7I, DE stravEmEasicE. 4 4 i i i: r t_ ci . ilnonnrteitainiteing,ke.: Inspector-General of Army Hospitals, , Esq., 27, avenue d'Antin.

Tizard, late Manager of the Nine Elms Brewery iV'ulhall; Author of " The Theory and Practice of Brewing ii,. Th .. e vast ___ aatr ted, patentee of the Mashing Attemperator, &c. the molt superiority in the strength and flavour of it rora of Great Britain over those of other countries is universally u 'flit ted, and arises, not as commonly supposed, from any peciu krity of ... climate, but from the exclusive use of the best moteria s, e,.:su the care and attention bestowed in their manufacture. The . ti t tl itY of the water is, no doubt, a point of considerable importance, :gan a uslYsis of the water of Paris shows it to be equal, if not su er, to that of London for all the purposes of brewing, and, in oratedaiee, similar to that used in handfc of the cele oo Burton ales. Excellent barley hops being equally at ,u"uland the superiority of the English beers can only arise from ssm causes already mentioned. ~,,__T_be Great Paris Brewery is therefore established with a firm :`,Tle tion that, with sufficient capital, the use of the best materials, Ztre and att ent i on in the manufacture, and the adoption of the most ''oDroved machinery, beer can be produced in France of a quality nal to th e B r i tish, and of the various kinds so justly famed under llienarnes of Scotch and Edinburgh ales, bitter ale, London porter, tr!. Dublin Stout. Thus the Scotch ale may be represented by "La •raere lraperiale ;" the bitter ale by " La Biere de Sante," &c. The consumption of beer in Paris and its vicinity is rapidly in n...sing, particularly amongst the middling and labouring classes, srom a growing conviction that it is more conducive to their health and strength than their low-priced wines and spirits, even when un adulterated. The manufaeture, therefore, of a superior description Of beer to that in common use, which may be accomplished at the present or a triflingly higher price, would not only cause an increased demand, but, in a great measure, supersede the Inferior article ; and When tke petty breweries of Paris are compared with the vast esta blishments in London, and the enormous fortunes realized by their owners, the success of the present undertaking can hardly admit of a doubt, nor any limit be assigned to its operations, extensive orders being anticipated from Algeria and other French colonies, can. it may be stated f ornia, &c. thatit any desire to excite undue expectaions, almost every Company in Paris, where directed by English skill . eminently d energy, has been successful ; and it is by;the advice of do se French gentlemen who intend to become members of this As s▪ oe2a..tion, that the Conseil de Surveillance is composed exclusively of "gush residents in Paris. re-paid, may be made in I, o 4 Plications for shares, under cover and p . c,thriclon to the solicitors or broker ; and in Paris to either of the — nen, or at the office of the Company, 12, Place Vendome. 8 ,000 1y,,, shares only can be alio sn be r eceived atter Saturday, the 13th instant. tted in England, and no applications - CIJLVERWELL'S NEW WORKS. 147 To be had of Sherwood, 23, Paternoster-row ; Cary Dri,Leet-stre e t ; Mann, 39, Cernhill ; or direct from the author alh° : , .L ,41 One Shilling each ; by post, Is. 6d.

BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH,' Hamilton-place New-road, London. Tne principles of the HYGEIAN or MORISONIAN SYSTEM are contained in the following propositions :- 1. The vital principle is in the blood. 2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood. 3. All constitutions are radically the same. 4. All diseases arise from impurity of the blood, or, in other words, from acrimonious humours lodged in the body. 5. Pain and disease have the same origin ; and may therefore be considered synonymous. 6. From the intimate connexion subsisting between mind and body, the health of one must conduce to the serenity of the other. 7. Proper Purgation by Vegetables is the only effectual mode of eradicating disease. 8. The discovery of a VEGET ABE COMPOUND, capable of being digested, and mixing with the blood, so as to Impart to it the energy requisite for ridding the body of all impurities, was a desideratum. 9. This discovery was made by JAMES MORISON, the Hygeist, in the composition of the VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINE (Morison's Pills) of the British College of Health, Hamilton•place New-road, London. 1, 41 , - , • t ftr,, , % 1111 , r lll lO. , • ` - 10A 4 ' !,/ • . . ; .1 • 4r h : , —•-• ,tto • ; ,• .• ' sy J / 41 < sxtf 1 / 4 ' id .14 7 " "2 At / „HA : a: ts \ 72 : 1 4 :74-4-^' ' , . \\*‘ o /4;4: N° 18,758.] LONDON, WEDNESDAY S gs, KZ 4 , , NOVEMBER 3 ) 1852. 7 Just published, Bvo.

Many a burst of merriment has echoed above " Hood's Comic Annual," front the lips of all classes. For mane a year he cheered our Christmas firesides with racy humour, that never wearied by its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was he known as the Post of Mirth: but the higher development of his genius and the nobler purpose of his muse were shown in suc't glorious hymns as " The Song of the Shirt" and the " Bridge of Sighs." Tin se 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 f witeout the help of a grave-yard servant, and ail who have laughed at his inimi able wit, er 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 liting :ma due to the dead. ?or the furthering of this design, the following gentlemen, mem bers of the Whitting`ri , Club, have formed themselves into a Com mittee : Mr. J. Balfour Mr. Campbell Clarke Mr. Edward Copping Mr. J. Passmore Edwards Mr. 11. C. Maguire Mr. C. S. Midaleton Yr. R. W. Roberts Mr. W. Strudwicke Mr. 11.

Charles Grant, 20, and James Ryan, 18, were con victed of feloniously assaulting James Stewart, and stealing from his person a watch, value 51., his property. The prisoners worn apprehended at a public-house in Dudley-street. The Assistant Judge said the place where the pri soners were taken into custody Wlts zegglar rendezvous or thieves. There were 40 present when the prisoners were apprehended. Police-constable 18 L said he had known Grant for three years ts the constant companion of well-known and reputed thieves. He had been in custody on diffe rent charges several times. Grant said this was a story trumped up by the police man, who had declared three years ago, when a summons was issued against a beer-chop at which he was potman, and on which occasion he was the principal witness against the police, that if ever the time came he would give him a turn. Tho officer said this was':entirely untrue. He gave the dates when the prisoner was in custody, and specified the charges against him. The Assistant Judge thought it high time Grant was sent to another country. He then sentenced him to be transported for ten years. Ryan, who was not known, was cautioned that if ever ho was convicted again a like fate would await him, and sentenced to 12 months' hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. SOUTHWARK.—Dominicho Lombardi, a sickly looking Italian boy, was charged with annoying the family of a Mrs. Harris, whose husband is suffering from bronchitis, by playing on an organ and using abusive language when desired to move away. The case was made out by the evidence of the prose. cutrix, who stated that the abandonment of the nuisance rather than punishment was the object of the prosecu tion. Mr. A'Beekett asked the accused if he could speak English, and was answered by a shake of the head. The megistrate then addressed him in his native tongue, and he stated in reply that he had come over hero from the neighbourhood of Parma, and had been six months in London; that he was sent here by a padrone he had in Italy to another padrone in Leather-lane, who sent him out about the town to play the organ, and to give him what money he got in return for his board and lodging, He should like to return to his own oountry rather than remain here to be subjected any longer to the ill humours of his padrone if he did not bring him home at night what he expected. Mr. A'Becket, perceiving that the unfortunate boy looked extremely ill and half famished, ordered him to be provided with some food, and said that as ho had ex pressed a wish to return to Italy, he should lose no time in communicating with some of those benevolent gentle men who interested themselves on the behalf of poor boys who were inveigled away from their native homes by their heartless fellow-countrymen for gain. THAMES.—Mary Ann Kirwan and Mary Wernham were charged with aiding two men not in custody in committing a garotte robbery. Captain East, a powerful man, stated that he was passing along the Minories, on the way to his ship, at a late hour on Monday night, and was accosted by the prisoners, who entered into conversation with him, and he walked a short distance with them on to Tower Hill, where they were accosted by two men, one of whom struck him a violent blow with his Rat, and the other, at the same moment, seized him by the neck, compressed it tightly with his hands so as to nearly produce suffocation, and flung him right over on his back. He struggled hard to get away, but the fellow held him down by the neck, while the other vil lain was kicking his hat along. The woman Kirwan made a snatch at his watch directly he was held down, detached it from the guard, and ran away with it. By a powerful effort he released himself from the grasp of the ruffian, threw him off, and called out "Police" as loud as he was able. The two women ran away, and he pursued them and overtook them 20 or 30 yards from the spot where ho was attacked, and gave them into cus. tody. The watch was afterwards found in the mud. Witness was quite sober. This evidence being confirmed the prisoners were committed for trial. COURT OF ALDERMEN. Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of public business. It was a full Court. BETHLEHEM HOSPITAL. Alderman COPELAND asked whether the Lord Mayor had received a copy of the evidence or report in this matter? The LORD MAYOR replied in the negative. Sir P. LAURIE said he was very glad that the ques7 tion had been put by his hon. friend. Nothing would have given the President and Committee of Bethlehem Hospital greater pleasure than to have forwarded copies of the report of the Commissioners in Lunacy to every governor, but they had been prevented from making such communication by the Secretary of Sta►te, for whose in formation the inquiry was made, and to whom, there fore, strictly speaking, the report at present exclusively belonged. On receipt of the report and evidence, on the 21st of February last, the hospital directed copies to be printed for the use of tho committee, with a conviction that every governor was not only entitled to a copy, but that it was impossible for them to come to any conclu sion unless the large mass of manuscript was printed, and they were enabled, quietly and at home, to make them selves masters of its contents. The Commissioners in Lunacy, by some means, got scent of that resolution, and immediately made some representation to the Secretary of State, who, by letter of the 27th of March, restrained the printing of the report ; and it was not until the 2d of April, and on the urgent representation of the com mittee of the utter impossibility of dealing with the re port and evidence until they were printed, that the Secretary of State sanctioned the printing, on the condition that "it should be transmitted in the strictest confidoece to the members of the committee." (Hear, hear.) When the committee obtained the report in a printed form, another difficulty arose from that limited permission. They were unable to comply with the re quest of the physicians and other officers whose conduct had been so severely commented upon for copies, to enable them to meet the charges against their professional characters and conduct. After repeated applications had been unsuccessfully made by these officers, the committee pressed upon the Secretary of State the necessity of fur nishing the medical officers with copies, and on the 25th of June they were authorised to do so, on condition "that such copies are not made use of for any purpose except that of preparing answers by the officers to the statements made in the report." The answers of the officers were only laid before the committee of the hospital about the middle of last month, when they were referred to a sub-committee, who were charged with the duty of replying to the report of the Commissioners. He felt it most important to mention these circumstances and to particularize these dates, to show that every desire existed on the part of the authorities of the hospital to afford the most complete information on the subject, and that the delay which had occurred in transmitting to the Secretary of State that full and satisfactory answer which he believed would bo given to the charges made against the management of the hospital, arose from causes over which the committee had no control. (Hear, hear.) He and the committee felt assured that Mr. Secretary Walpole, in limiting the circulation of the report, had no other desire than to prevent the publication of weighty charges, until accompanied by the defence of the Go vernors, and he further believed that no such prohibition would have been made, but for the unwarrantable inter ference of the Commissioners in the first instance to prevent the printing of the report. In this peculiar state of things, the Court would see the impossibility of his entering into any particulars, or of anticipating that answer which was in course of preparation, and which, ho repeated, ho believed, would be completely satis factory. (Hear, hear.) He would only add, that owing to the most extraordinary manner in which the Com missioners had conducted the inquiry, the Governors had had no opportunity of knowing the charges against them or of making any defence. (Hear, hear.) In vio lation of the commonest principles of justice and of the hitherto invariable practice of every tribunal, they never informed the governors at large or any one of the wit nesses examined of the charges, general or specific, which had been brought against them. No one was al lowed to attend the examination on the behalf of the parties accused, nor after the es: parte inquisition had been concluded and before the report was agreed upon, were the governors called on for any defence or expla nation whatever. (Hear, hear.) Ho felt himself pre chided from adverting to any other topic referred to in the report and evidence at that moment; but , knowing the ease with which charges against lunatic hospitals were made, and the difficulty with which they were rebutted even when totally unfounded, he felt assured that that Court and the public would take a very different course from that adopted by the Commissioners, and that before they formed a conclusion they would bear in mind the in scription on the wall of the court, :" Hoar both sides." (Hear, hear.) The Commissioners had certainly taken one-sided view of the question , although it presented innumerable difficulties; but he was convinced the Court and the public would, upon the exposition of the whole 9f the circumstances, render a fall measure of justice. (Hear, Hear.) He believed they were aware that th e Go vernors had appointed a resident physician of great t a l en t and experience, and a resident apothecary in every wa y qualified to perform the du ties assigned to that office ; and that they had also appointed a matron of active and firm mind, who would pay incessant att en ti on to t h e female patients. The increased and _ increasing number o f patients in the institution had rendered such changes ne cessary, irrespective of any occurre nce w hi c h m i g h t foraqground ofcomplaint. It had been lon g hi s own op i n i on that there should be a resident physi c i an an d res id ent apothecaries in the hospital. The go vernors h a d h a d suc h c hange for a considerable time in contemplation, and he h a d no doubt that such a selection had been made, by the appointment of Dr. Wood, of the Colney Hatch Hospital, as resident physician ; Mr. Helps as resident apothecary; and a lady of energy as matron, as would reflect credit upon the institution. (Hear, hear.) ll° entertained no doubt that it would be looked upon by foreigners, who continnally visited it in great numb ers, as a model institution, and that in less than a fortnight the charges so hardily brought against the governors would be met with a perfect refutation. (Hear, hear.), In the meantime he felt they were bound, e s men ( " 1 honour, to thn Secretary of State to reserve any other statement until they sho u ld pl a ce before him their full defence and exculpation. (Cries of " Hear , hear. " ) The subject then 'dropped, and the Council shortly tifcer TM& Odjearned, LITERATURE. THE MAGAZINES. Dublin University. —The first article in this month's I number is entitled " A pilgrimage to Quilca in t' e year 1852." It gives a very detailed account of the old " belongins "of that place. Several celebrated characters have been connected with this place— Swift, Sheridan, Stella. Henry Brooks was born, bred, and buried in the parish, and therefore it mut be interesting to all to peruse a sketch so associated with the memory of the departed great. The tomb of Henry Brooks is thus described : We landed in the glebe meadows, where we found they had secured the attendance of a very old and wrinkled woman, that she being the nonoge narian of the parish, might point out the precise spot where H. Brooks was buried, for seventy long years ago she, as a young country colleen, went with the whole county side to meet the funeral coming from Dublin. There indeed is no tomb or monumental larble, but in the absence of all such decayable matter, God's sun shines perennially on the spot, and every evening its descending beams will come to visit the old ruin, and with their rich and tender light rest on the good man's grave, bathing the green sod in day. There are wild flowers too growing there, planted by no human hand, the common yarrow, the yellow melliloh, and the wild pansy. Descending from the mound which holds Brook's dust, I found myself repeating Campbell's fine lines— ' But fling his ashes to the wind, Whose tongue and pen has served mankind. And is he dead, whose glorious mind Lift's mine on high, To live in hearts we leave behind, Is not to die.'" A sketching tour of five weeks it. the forests of Ceylon is very interesting ; it contains much information concerning the objects met with there. There is a second part of the biography of Tyrone Power, which enters into all the particulars of his celebrated career. The Colonial. Chapter IV. of the " Overland Route" describes the journey from Suez to Aden and Bombay. The new Australian gold regulations from the Sydney Government Gazette will afford useful information to the numerous ♦isitors to the gold regions. The first part of a drama entitled "Head Quarters, or Manners in the East," is lively and amusing. The " Financial and Commercial Statement for the Month," and the " Summary of Colonial and East Indian Intelligence," contain a variety of instructive and entertaining accounts of events and opinions. The Law Magazine.—The first article in this number is on Charitable Bequests, in which the writer observes that " Few Acts of Parliament have given rise to a greater number of disputed points than the statute 9 Geo. 11. c. 36, commonly called the Sta tute of Mortmain." Several cases are cited, and the conclusion states that, if the recommendations of the Committee of the House of Commons appointed to inquire into the Law of Mortmain, are carried into effect, the question under discussion will not arise ; for in their report presented last session, they proppse to relieve all descriptions of property , given for charitable purposes from the restric tions of the Mortmain Act. An article on Marine Insurances gives a clear account of them. There also Notes on Leading Cases, and a list of events of the quarter, which gives the names of the lawyers in the new House of Commons. The Farmers' Magazine and Monthly Journal of the Agricultural Interest.—This publication is in tended for the use of those connected with agricultural pursuits. To those thus engaged it must be of essen tial service, as it contains varied details of the requisite knowledge. Three articles on American machines, on the science of manuring, and the cultivation of flax, form the greater part of the contents. Newton's London Journal.—Among the Patents mentioned in this repertory of arts, sciences, and manufactures, is that of W. Squire, for improve ments in piano-fortes ; and W. W. Collins, for the manufacture of steel. The rules and instructions issued under the New Patent Law Amendment Act find a place in the Scientific Notices. There is a List of Grants under the new law, and there are two plates of the chief patents described in the magazine. Memoirs of the Baroness D' Oberhirch. Written by herself, and edited by her grandson, the Count de Montl;rison. 3 vols. Colburn. In introducing these memoirs to our readers, we cannot do better than transcribe the passages in which, with a very charming simplicity of manner, Madame D'Oberkircb introduces both herself and her memoirs to our notice : " The pages which I present to my reader," she tells us, " are not memoirs, they are rather recollec tions. I have never had the slightest pretension to be a bel esprit, or to occupy a niche in the temple of fame. I write that I may pass over in my mind the principal events in my life ; they are deeply interest • ing to me, nor will they b less so to my daughter. I know not in what light they may appear to others. I speak little of what concerns myself personally, just as much as is necessary to make me know and to prove that I have seen what I relate. My thoughts and my reflections are exclusively my own—l am not accountable to any person for them. My recollec tions are dear to me, because I alone have a right to them. To divulge iem would be to diminish the happiness they afford me. These pages, then, are but as a casket in which I place them, whence I may draw them forth in my old age. " I write these pages in 1789, in my thirty-fifth year. I kept in 'B2 a journal, in which I minutely detailed my travels with Madame la Comtesse du Nord (the Grand Duchess of Russia) to Paris, and from thence through Brittany, Normandy, Picardy, Holland, and the Electoral States. I observed the same practice in 'B4 and 'B6 during two visits I made to Paris, whither I was drawn by the kindness with which Madame la Duchesse de Bourbon deigned to honour me. I combine these journals and these notes to form the history of the first thirty-five years of my life. I speak in it of those that I have known—of facts of which I have been the witness—of the re markable personages of this century with whom I have been intimately or distantly connected, or with whom I have had either personal or family con nexions. I add some of the letters which have been written to me by H. I. H. Madame la Grande Duchesse Marie Federowna. This august princess, spite of her abode in a foreign land, still entertains for me the deep and tender affection which sprung up in our infancy, and is good enough to write to me some times. My respectful devotedness to this amiable princess is one of the most profound sentiments of my heart. As these memoirs may some day meet the eye of the careless or the cold, I would scruple to inter weave in them that part of our correspondence which is solely confidential. I cannot, however, resist the desire of making my daughter and her children acquainted with this noble mind, this tender heart, and this pure and lofty imagination, which the highest degree of worldly honours has never for a moment been able to corrupt, and which unconsciously reveal themselves in this correspondence." The above remarks dictated by the partiality of friendship, are fully verified by a glance at the' cor. respondence to which they refer. The wife of the Grand Duke Paul, Marie Fosderowna, during her youth, while residing with her parents at Montbe liard, and bearing the appellation of Dorothea of Wurtemberg, bad been constantly associated with the young daughter of the Count de Weidner, and a most tender affection existed between them from their early years. When the one had been removed from her home to the Imperial Court of Russia, as Oe bride of the heir apparent, compelled to abandonwit_ her religion and her very name, she still regardedou the same warm tenderness the friends of her ? ) , eco t o2 n e and her letters to her early companion.. Madame D'Oberkirch, continued to ind i r v il e O t w e vv h th io e h " h m ad e warm affection, and the same fainkliar-tgoir girlhood characterized their intercourse duarcipego, as here at Montbeliard. The Gran d d D ole h most fascina•ing por trayed by her friend, is indeed some years after their and loveable of women. W marriage, the Grand Duke and his wife, under the o b er r e cahr in hastened title of Count and Co untess du Nord, visited reign t o of and mingled in thetidgaauliteiesp of the Marie-Antoinette , Madame join her friend , and participated with her n the bril liant course of festivities i with which the F renc h Sovereigns welcomed their illustrious guests. Her diary kept du rin g this period, is necessarily one of t h e most attractive portions of her memoirs. The simple t as tes and domestic habits of th e B aroness, rendered the laborious routine of gaiety somewhat irksome to her, but the companionship of her beloved Princess enchained her at Paris. In a most graceful and natural manner she comments upon the various remarkable personages around her, and en livens her pages with the anec d otes of the day—pages, however, remarkable throughout by the purity of sen timent and womanly delicacy by which they are char acterized. The closing passages of the third volume are overshadowed with the gloom of the impending Revolution—an event which to Madame D'Oberkirch must have been an especial calamity, imbued as she had been from childhood with the most exaggerated notions reopectirig high birth And genealogical [PRICE SD.

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 tree 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, 1853. —" 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 sr ocially tr e ated o f by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price eey at which the • brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of 18,18 11 . e interested in the matter."—Dublin Medical Press, April LAW INTELLIGENCE. EQUITY COURTS.—Nov. 2. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) In consequence of the Lord Chancellor having re ceived the Judges, Queen's Counsel, &a, at breakfast, as usuil, on the first day of this Term, his Lordship did not take his seat in Court until half-past one o'clock. At the sitting of the Court Vice-Chancellor Sir John Stuart took the usual oaths. . . Ills Lordship, after expressing a strong opinion in favour of the continuance of the ancient feeling in favour of Westminster Hall, and his wish that no separation should apparently take place between the common law and equity bars, acceded to the request of the bar as far as regarded the present term, stating that he was much influ.nvd in yielding to the request; made to him by the fact of the other equity judges having to sit in chambers at Lincoln's-ins. The Court therefore sat this day at Lincoln's-inn. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCE—Nov. 2. MELLoR V LOUGH AND LEATHER. This was an action of replevin, tried before Mr. Justice Wightman at the Liverpool Assizes, in which a verdict had been given for the plaintiff. Mr. James now moved for a rule of nisi to show cause why that verdict, as against Lough, should not be set aside. The facts of the case, which excited some atten tion at Liverpool, were as follows. A certain pony, the subject matter of the action, had been in the possession of Leather for a considerable time. The plaintiff Mellor made a claim to the pony, and, some time before the action was brought, he, with oue or two others, surrep titiously obtained possession of it from the defendant Leather's stables. Upon this a complaint was made to the police authorities, the parties were given into cus tody, and the pony detained by the defendant Lough, who was a constable of the borough of Liverpool, appointed under the Municipal Corporations Act. The - charge having been dismissed, the magistrate exer cised the authority given to him, in regard to pro. perty alleged to be stolen, by the 5 and 6 Vic., c. 116, by making an order for the delivery of the pony to the defendant Leather, and this order was carried into effect by Lough, in whose custody the pony was. Thereupon proceedings in replevin took place. The defendant Lough at the trial pleaded the general issue, and the learned judge ruled that the defence could not come in under that plea. The learned counsel proceeded to com ment at some length upon the acts of Parliament relat ing to the privileges and pow, rs of const a bl es appo i nte d under the Municipal Corporation Act, and upon the case of " Haseldine v. Grove" (3 Q. B. Rep.), and one or two others, when he was stopped by the Court, and a Rule nisi granted. :secretary e e of COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—Nov. 2. HARRIS V. TIIOMPSON. — BLANDER. The on N plaictrifoiplis in this case was the Brewersnd lnsurance Company, and also auditor to the Lo Company,but fbm in consequence to onsegti en some charges made against him he was dismissed from the first-named situation. The defendant was a director in the Necropolis Company, and at a meeting on th e 23d of February, 1 852, ho communicated to hi s b ro th er directors the fact of the plaintiff's dismissal, and pro posed that he should be also dismissed from the office of auditor to the Necrerlia Company. The chairman in quired the grounds of the plaintiff's dismissal from the secretaryship; when the defendant sail he was charged with obtaining money under false pretences from the so licitors, and giving an I 0 U for a petty cash debt. This was the slander upon which the action was founded, but as it was uttered in a privileged communication from the defendant to bis brother directors,. it was necessary, to sustain the action, that the plaintiff should prove that the defendant had acted maliciously.. Of this there was no conclusive evidence, but the plaintiff proved that he and his solicitor attended a meeting of the Necropolis Company directors on the Bth of Mwhen arch, called for the the defendant purpose of investigating the matter, refused to make any statement in the presence of the plaintiff's solicitor, or of the plaintiff himself. The trial took place before Chief Justice Jervi s, at the sittings in Middlesex after last term, when the jury were of opinion that malice was proved, and they gave a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 1501. Mr. Serjeunt Boyles to-day moved to enter a verdict for the defendant, or for a new trial, and submitted that there was no evidence of malice to go to the jury, and that an inuendo stated in the declaration was not sup ported in the evidence. As to the new trial, that was asked for upon the ground that the evidence did not warrant the jury in finding so large an amount of damages. The Chief Justice said ho thought the amount of damages was very large. Rule Nisi granted. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.—Nov. 2. (Sittings in Banco.) NORCAN V. CLIFTON, BART. This action was tried before the Chief Baron at the last sittings at Guildhall, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff with 8001. damages. Mr. Edwin James, on the part of the defendant, now moved for a rule nisi for a now trial, on the ground that the verdict was against the evidence, and upon affi davits. The action was brought against Mr. Clifton (now Sir Robert Clifton, son of the late Sir Jukes Clifton, of Clifton-hall, Nottingham), to recover the stun of 1,000/. due on a bill of exchange, which was given to a person named Rowlands. It was pleaded that the bill was given for a gambling transaction, and that no considera tion was paid for it lv the plaintiff; and that it had come into his possession with a full knowledge of the circum stances under which it bad been obtained. The facts of the case were as follows :—The plaintiff was the keeper of a public-house at Nanty- Glow, in Wales, and there Rowlands, who was edu cated as a surgeon, but s p o k en o f as a sport i ng man, became acquainted with the defendant, then a minor. Mr. Rowlands afterwards visited at Clifton-hall, and it was proposed that he should accompany M r. Clif ton abroad, which he did, and di vers ifi ed the journey up the Rhino by winning 2,0001. of the defendant at dominoes. No security was asked or given for this sum, at that time; but in September, 1848, he went to Ireland, and called on Mr. Clif t on, w h o was then visiting his brother in-law, Sir Harvey Bruce. Mr. Clifton was in bed when Rowlands called, but he accepted two bills, each for 1,0001., dated 22d September, 1848, and payable on de mend, but which Rowlands pledged his word should not be presentad till after the death of Sir Jukee, or nego tiated. One of the bills afterwards passed to the present plaintiff, and one to a person named Williams. The plaintiff was called at the trial, and endeavoured to prove that the consideration for which the bill had been given was a sum of 800/. 6s. 2d., which he declared was duo to him from Rowlands, and had been owing for seven or eight years previously. The principal items of the bill were " brandy and water " and " horses." Morgan admitted on cross-examination that he knew Rowlands was insolvent, and that be could not have advanced any money for the bills. He also ad mitted that on one night in January, 1851, Rowlands had come to hi m an d as k e d hi m to keep t h e bill s f or him in his safe. It was afterwards arranged that Morgan should hold one of them for the tavern bill in question. The affidavits on which the learned counsel moved, set forth that Rowlands, wbo would have been a most im portant witness, had kept out of the way, and Morgan admitted, on cross-examination, that the evening before the trial he had dined with Rowlands at Wood's Hotel, Furnival's Inn, and that he had also breakfasted with him there on the following morning, the day of the trial. Four several journeys had been made into Wales to endeavour to subpoena Rowlands. The Lord Chief Baron—You may take a rule upon both points.—Rule nisi accordingly. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Noy. 2. (Bcfore Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE PRRNTICE. _ Mr. Hubbard, on behalf of the ;assignees in this case, made an application under the following cironmstances ; —The bankrupt had obtained his certificate several years ago, ho had since come into the possession of con siderable property, and having paid all his creditors in full was desirous of a properly classified certificate under the new act. The old certificate lay at his (Mr. Hub bard's) office; and, what was more strange, there was a large surplus in the hands of the official assignee, after payment in full of all the creditors, for which the bankrupt declined to apply. His Honour said ,he had no power to interfere ; the certificate already issued must stand. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT,--Noy. 3. (Before Mr. Commissioner Law.) IN THE MATTER CF MANUEL ENDINE DURUP. This insolvent, who had been in no business or pro fession applied to be discharged. Mr. Sargood opposed. The insolvent was entitled, under the will of his fa ther, on the death of his panther, to considerable funded property. In November, 1850, the insolvent was indicted by his mother for stealing some articles of grocery, of the value of 155., and before trial she died. Her depo sitions were admitted in evidence, and he was convicted at the sessions, and sentenced to 21 days, imprisonment. By his mother's death he became entitled to the property lett under his father's will. The crown had, as he was convicted of felony, made a claim to the same, and va rious negotiations had been pending between the solici tor of the Treasury and his attorney, and it was antici pated that the crown would relinquish the claim, and that the property would come to him. He had given mortgages to some of his creditors on the property in question. Mr. Commissioner Law required some further evidence on the subject, and the case was adjourned. se r____ i—c__-<__ t - , --(o:7—:c—___ -c_ ) Ihonours. So conspicuous, indeed, was this sentimi!nt in this descendant of the noble family of Walduer, that, in the beginning of her memoirs, af'erdetaLting with exactitude the names of her illustrious an cestors, she thus pathetically expresses her anxiety that her race may not become de generate in the person of her son•in-law—her only child being a daughter.

Art and Faith ; or, the Harmony of Science and Scrip • ture. By George Troup. James Bieck wood. Already Mr. George 'Troup has very frequently displayed his literary abilities—abilities whits have stood him in good stead at different times, as editor, now of the Glasgow Daily Mail, and now agaiin of Tait's Magazine. Ilis present volume showas in a somewhat remarkable manner the scope and versa tility of his intelligence. No more comprehensive commentary has yet appeared upon the vast and almost bewildering subject of the Great Industrial Exhibition. The production reminds the res der in every sentence of the astonishing progress made of late years in the adva nce moveme nt of practical civil ization. A brilliant evidence of this is afforded in the very initial chapter itself—a chapter which calls to remembrance, in a vivid and startling ma nner, the difference observable of late years in modern tra velling. Reference has already been made in our leading columns to the enlightened opinions expressed by our author upon the subject of the British 'North American Railway, by which enterprize the advan tages of modern travelling would be so very marvel lously and inestimably increased. Upon a va:riety of other subjects, Mr. Troup displays, in the ch arming little volume under consideration, a no less ea tended and elevated amount of information. Occasionally he may evince a rather over weening anxiety to , prose lytize ; but even this we are disposed—in spite of many evident prejudices— to respect as an adi litional proof of his sincerity and earnestness. Scarce ly any one, however comprehensive his knowledge, can rise from the perusal of the work without having secured an increise to his stock of intelligence, or without having recognized the tokens of a mind deeply imbued with the responsibility devolving upon the present, and increasingly, of course, upon after generations. If for nothing else, the work would be welcome, inasmuch as it is thus far a provocative of serious; meditation. But, in addition to all this, the volume is remarkable, as affording a clue through the laby rinth of doubt and unbelief, separating to many people the seemingly incongruous study of Science and of the Scripture. The notion is not a new one—indeed the project was adventured upon in a less popular form, and with more ostentatious erudition, several years ago, by no less a personage than Cardinal Wise man. It is not, however, through the medium of the more abstruse departments of science and literature, that Mr. Troup is here endeavouring to trace analogies between the records of divine and human knowledge. His endeavour is more directly adapted to the popular appreciation. He writes upon the subject—a subject E ver enthral ling no less to the ignorant than to the philoso pher—somewhat in the same homely but delight.. ful strain which Robert Hunt has adopted in his picturesque compositions. George Troup describes in this manner " silver in and out of the mine." He has a beautiful chapter upon " lodine." He ha 3 an other upon "Forest Trees," that good old Mr. Evelyn would not have disdained to applaud. He has another called suggestively " Snatches from the Loom," and another " The Fleece and the Clot)li," and another " The Fuel in the Earth," and another " The Seed in the Furrows." Expressions like those are of themselves sufficiently attractive. But the volume abounds in other subjects equally commend ing it to general examination. The lover of botanical research will find himself in this manner roused to airiosity by the chapter upon " Weeds and Wild Flowers." The lover of entomology will turn not less willingly to the chapter upon " Art and In sects." The metallurgist will have an interest in the one on " Gold and Silver," and the lapidary in the one on " Diamonds and Pearls." Indeed the volume, compact though it is, presents to is readers scarcely less diversified allurements (and all of them whole some ones) than were afTorcieA to the visitor to the Crystal Palace by the nave, and the transept!, and the galleries of the great Industrial Exhibition. AWFUL MURDER IN DE.VOASHIRE. A most barbarous and shocking murder was committed at the village of Milton, in the parish of Buckleant Mo nachorurn, on Friday night or Saturday morning last. This hamlet is situated etrout fcur miles south-west of Tavistock, and about ten miles from Plymouth, and the person murdered is a Mrs. Msry White, a vArioes, about sixty years of age, who carried on a small huckster's business, selling tea, cuff e, c andles, &e. The old lady bore an excellent character for frugality end honesty. She was last seen alive on Friday eight about eleven o'clock, at which hour she was sitting up for a man named William Glanville, who had gone to Tavistock, and from whom she expected to receive some lees. Ira the course of the evening she had called upon several of: her neighbours to have a gossip, and about heir-rase, ten she returned to her house. Shortly afterwards Glen ville brought her the lees, and after she had recrived them he saw her no more. She lived in the house alone, occupying the lower room of a somewhat miserable cot tage as her shop, and the up-stairs room sea s h er s l eep i ng apartment. In this room she had a large box, about three feet lone h , and it: this she kept her mon e y, w hi c h was believed by all her neighbours to be considerable, though no person has been as yet able to state tete amount. Mrs White, the deceased, was a smart, active woman, and although about sixty years of age, she wee accustomed to milk one of her neigbour's cows. both night and morning. On Saturday morning, therefore, as she did not appear, about eight o'clock one of her neighbours began to speak of its being odd than Mary White had not come down; and shortly after nine one or two of them tried the door. It was found t'aat the door was locked, and that the key was not inside, where upon one of them got a ladder, and ascended to a win dow over the shop, about iii feet high, and having cut the fastening, opened it, and crept into the chamber. e b r e s d o , n th be e in b r ed to c a h l i l th e e p a p a e p a: ap parently 'lfs se undisturbed, some o n ranee in a calm sleep; but on comin g close, and sli g htl y e lyi naged in the the e moving the clothes, he found that there eras an im mense gash in the throat, and that the person had either committed suicide or had been murdered.

This person, emmedi ately he had come down, ran over to Mr. Whete's, the brother of the deceased, with whom also hers sn lived, and there stated what he had seen.

It is a singular fact tbist the son went to Tavistock on Saturday for Merritt, and asked him to come over to Milton, a; a woman had been murdered, and it was some time before Merritt learned that this " woman" was his own mother. In the course of the day a man named Corber was taken into custody on suspicion, bat was liberated, there being no evidence to warrant his being detained. The investigation leas emitinusd till seven in the evening, when, there being no further evidence, the inquiry was adjourned till the 13th inst. An application will probably be made to the Go vernment to offer a reward for the apprehension of the murderee.
