By an ob servance of the Instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea ,ture able to understani ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of ngture, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not attended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the like advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.

SOUTHAMPTON THURSDAYNTGHT:-- - The Forth, Royal Mail steam-ship, Chapman, arriva this evening, at six o'clock, with the usual fortnightly mail. She has rad an exceedingly rapid passage, and has arrived full a couple of days before she was expected. The Forth brings the large number of 131 passengers, amongst whom are his Excellency the Earl of Elgin, daughter, sister, Lady Charlotte Bruce, and suite. His Lord ship is looking uncommonly well. The latest dates brought by the Forth are, St. Jago de Cuba, May 19 ; Demerara, May 19 ; Trinidad, 21; Jamaica, 24; Barbadoes, 24; Grenada, 25; St. Thomas's, 30; and Faval, June 12. On frieght are 832 ounces of gold-dust, 8 serons of bark, 80 bales of sarsaparilla, 50 tierces of coffee, 46 barrels of ditto, a quantity of ginger, 1,260 dollars, and sundry packages of succades, tamarinds, &c. The , Forth passed the Medway, outward bound, this morn ing at seven o'clock, between Portland and the Lizard. The news brought by the Forth is of no great moment, excepting that the drought still continued in the Island of Jamaica to an alarming extent. Some slight showers had fallen in one or two parishes, which merely had the effect of refreshing the parched-up ground for awhile ;in St. David's, in particular, the weather has been extremely dry and hot ; in Kingston, the thermometer, in the shade, has been as high as 96. Since the last advices some of the islands have been blessed with rain, but not to any great extent. The'long drought has wrought so unfavourably upon the crops, that in almost, if not quite, every island, they will fall off con siderably. The Avon royal mail steam-ship was at St. Thomas's when the Forth left ; the Clyde was at Jamaica ; the Glasgow on her usual station ; the Trent en route from Jamaica to Bermuda, Havannah, &c. ; and the Teviot in the Spanish main. The following is a list of the passengers : His Excellency Earl Elgin, Go vernor o f J ama i ca , L a d y Elma (daughter), Lady Charlotte Bruce and servants, Lieu tenant-Colonel Arbuckle, R.A., Captain Burrows, R.A:, Mr. Scott.

Mr. Weymouth and child, from Montserrat; Mr. Costa , St. Thomas's. (From the Jamaica Times, May 25.) We cannot better commence our present summary than by directing attention to a report which, strange to say, ob tained almost universal currency among the press of the mother country previous to the sailing of the last packet ; namely, that the weather in the West Indies had been generally favourable, and that the crops in Jamaica and elsewhere " had a most favourable aspect." How nob m erroneous impression could nave originated, -- wo are totally at a loss to conceive; for we are not aware that there is a single colony in the West Indies which answers to the above description. But even sup posing that some isolated instance could be found, and that some equally isolated ignoramus connected with some English journal had leaped to the mistaken conclusion, it says little for the industry of our editorial brethren in general, that instead of examining for themselves the contents of the various West India papers, they, with only one exception that we have been able to discover, were content with copy ing from each other, and thus permitted an error, unfortu nately for us, of the greatest magnitude, to go the round of the whole British press. The exception, we must in justice state, is the Colonial Gazette, which, as usual, had taken the trouble to judge for itself and consequently presented a pic ture of distress from theunparalleled drought with which we have been visited, diametrically opposite to the report so inexcusably circulated by its contemporaries. In Barbadoes, in consequence of the late long-continued drought, the crop will fall off at least one-fifth. In Trinidad, from ,a similar cause, both the sugar and cocoa crop have suffered materially. In British Guiana, the loss of stock and destruction of pro duce, from a drought of nea r ly e i g ht mon th s ' duration, are stated to be deplorable in the extreme. In Tobago, the House of Assembly, in reply to , the expressed hope of the Lieutenant-Governor that the present crop may prove at least an average one, distinctly tell him that they have no such fay w ou it r h ab p l e d e e til x i p ar ec s ta ev ti e o r n it , y b u t on the contrary are assured that "the year 1846 w i ll long be remembered as having pressed &c., similar tal es o f d i stress are told : and lastly, in Jamaica, where littl e or no rain has fallen during the last o v n inc the ent c , ul p ti o v m at ini ors ca of Grenada,the sta ples "in that i s l an d. I n St. nine months, the crop will unquestionably _fall off at least one-fourth, so that altogether if the West Indies ship 2,250,000 cwts., instead of the 2,850,000 cwts., which they exported last year, it will be as much as can be expected under the circumstances, and certainly offers a striking con trast to the " favourable aspect " alleged to be borne by the West Indies in the report above referred to. Having given the gloomy side of the picture, it is now, however, our more pleasing duty to state, that the weather generally has taken a change for the better; although no extent of rain which has yet fallen is at all calculated to supply the present wants of the country, far less to provide for the future, by any accumulation either in our ponds, or streams. As a natural consequence of the deficiency in our crops, and the comparative cessation of cultivation during the last few months, money is unusually scarce, and trade pro portionately depressed in all its branches. Indeed, beyond the mere necessities in food and clothing, little or nothing has been doing for some time ; and even in these respects the legitimate merchant has had his operations very much encroached upon by the number of petty importers which have lately sprung sip; while many of those who were for merly only retailers, are now dabbling in the wholesale line; and thus articles of merchandise, which formerly only re quired to go through first and second hands before they reached the consumer, are now bandied from party to party, each transaction creating so much negotiable paper; so that in fact every hundred pounds' worth of property actually brought into the country, becomes the basis of a creation of paper money to at least four or five times that amount. In the hope of curing this evil in part, as well as no doubt protecting themselves, the banks have latterly restricted their discounts very considerably; although it is urged against them, and we fear not without cause, that they have been somewhat injudicious in their proceedings on this score, and have made the system almost a general one, to the serious inconvenience of the public at large, instead of merely applying the screw where the circumstances pointed out t hat it was absolutely called for. There is no doubt, however, that in the end, a considerable portion of the community will be benefited .by the measure ; while all that is required, to restore confidence and credit generally would be the prospect of a better crop next year—the preparatory culti vation for which would soon set a sufficiency of money afloat. This, however, as we have elsewhere observed, alone depends upon the weather. Let Providence be only bountiful in this respect, and we have, comparatively speaking, little else to fear. The departure of his Excellency the Earl of Elgin from our shores—although only for a time —suggests some consi deration of the character his Lordship's government for the four years during which he has now resided in this island. Coming after so universal a favourate, and so expe rienced a tactician as Sir Charles Metcalfe, it certainly required no common qualities of mind or powers of go verning to have maintained even a respectable footing in public opinion ; but we are sure we only do Lord Elgin justice, and only echo public opinion, when we say, that his Lordship, in the discharge of his many and onerous duties as her Majesty's representative in this island, has established a reputation for himself essentially peculiar to himself—the full merits of which are not to be developed in a day, any more than the public advantages upon which it is founded, will cease with his Lordship's surrender of the seals of office. During his Excellency's absence he will no doubt have an opportunity of seeing and conversing with many in the mother codntry deeply interested in the prosperity, as well as occupied in the external government of the affairs of this and our sister colonies, and we are sure that when he returns to us—as return, he will, we hope--it will not be the least among the many obligations which he has conferred upon us, that, although absent,:he still watched over our interests. May the passage be propitious to his Lordship and his illus trious family ; and may health and h a ppi ness attend them— the noble creoe not the least in importance, in our estima tion—in whatever climes it may be their future lot to be cast ! This day the inauguration of Major General Berkely has been appointed to take place. THE JAMAICA RAILWAY. (From the Jamaica Dispatch, May 23. ) This railway has been now in operation for six months, a rr vo ad ura o bnleitrms, the passenger t e and it will be a source of happiness to the di rec t ors an d o thers interested in it in England to know th a t not a s i ng l e dt of Of its prosperity also c i w traffic being quite equal to previous returns, whilst the mer chandise traffic has been mere than trebled within the last we can p e ak in n the e a m s o o s c t c f u quarter. • DIVISION OF PROFITS.

EXAIIPLES. r ae. JUNE 19, 1846. • JAMAICA COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. (From o nl y r Mercantile Intelligencer.) Flour.—The sales have been 200 barrels Fresh Baltimore at 335. ; 1,100 ditto New Orleans at 31s. 6d. The article has since been offered, and refused at prices under previous rates, 600 barrels Philadelphia, arrived in January, having been declined at 31s. per barrel. Cornmeal.—Subsequently to our last issue 750 barrels were brought to this market, which were immediately sold at the reported price of 265. The article is now being re tailed at 28s. per barrel. Rice—Previously to the arrival of the 1,000 bags already reported, 2,000 bags of discoloured Madras, received direct from that port, were disposed of at 15s. 3d. There have since been 'sold 150 bags first quality at 225. 6d. per 100 lb. A cargo of Carolina went into port this week, but as yet no desire has been manifested to purchase. The market for rice has been very much affected by a report that 7,000 bags are now on the water for this island, on board two Coolie vessels. Bread —5OO barrels pilot bread, 100 ditto crackers, and 25 ditto navy of the same shipment, changed holders at the stated rates, of 2s. for pilot and crackers, and 18s. for navy. Butter—There have not been any sales of moment in Irish descriptions, the prices of which (100.) is with difficulty kept up. The operations in American have been also small. We report only 100 firkins at 6d., and 100 at 7d. per lb. The article is very dull. Lard—This article is also very inactive. Irish may be quoted at 7d., and American at sd. to 6d. per lb. Candles—Prices have somewhat declined, owing to the ample supply. 225 boxes Philadelphia 6's, B's, and 10's, have been sold at 6d., 200 ditto 12's and 14's at 7d. per lb. English and Irish sorts are almost entirely neglected. Cod Fish—Two cargoes immediately after the departure of the packet came in from Halifax, the boxes of which went off readily at 205., but only portions of the casks, and in very small lots, were taken at 16s. per 1001 b. Another cargo sub sequently arrived, but it remains as yet unsold. A large shipment from Newfoundland has been thrown into the market, and partly sold in lots at 135., in hogsheads and tierces. Mackerel—Are getting scarce, but the consumption is not great. No. 3is worth 30s. per barrel. ilerrings--Last ealce of Halifax No. 1 were made at 19s. per barrel; 130 ditto Newfoundland, not prime, have been sold at 13s. per barrel. Alewives--Prime No. 1 are worth 12s. to 13s. A parcel of an inferior quality brought prices ranging from is. to Ils. per barrel. Salmon—ls in demand, particularly No. I, which is worth 68s. per barrel. The sales of Newfoundland salmon have been 12 tierces No. 1 at 525., and 11 barrels Nos. 1,2, and 3 at 60s per barrel. Soap—We report a sale of 1,300 boxes Olden's and Thorn ton's at I Is. 3d. for 501b5., and 12s. for 601bs. There have been several arrivals of this article within the last four weeks. Pork—ls gradually declining, and prices are now below the figure (68s. 4d.) which was obtained some ten or twelve days back for a parcel of 500 barrels new prime. The stock has been considerably increased by the continued arrivals, and we may look for a still further reduction in . rates ; 200 barrels prime were declined at 665. 4d. per barrel. Hams—Are not in demand ; 300 American have been taken on speculation at 7d. The best Lancashire move off slowly at 10d. to 10%d. per lb. Pigs' Tongues—There are none at market. Cheese-100 hampers prime D. G. fetched 10d. per lb. Corn— 500 bags New Orleans have been taken at 4s. per bushel, and 100 bags Philadelphia at Bs. 6d. per bag. Owing to the late large arrivals, the stock is now very ample. Oil—The continued arrivals cause this article to remain inactive. Cod is dull at 2s. 6d. per gallon. The supply is very large. Salt-200 sacks fetched 9s. per sack. The article can be purchased at a lower rate. Lumber—The market continues well supplied. We have heard of no transactions. PRICE SD.

To keep BO numerous, and free and easy an assemblage in anything like subjection was not an easy task ; the greater credit therefore is due to the managers of the course for the precautions taken to prevent a recurrence of those in terruptions that at no very remote period were apt to set all control at defiance, and not unfrequently to lead to serious accidents.

We may refer without inconvenience in this place to some communications we have received on the subject of the rela tive forces of the British and American squadrons in the Pacific. One of our correspondents has endeavoured to con vince us that the American" frigates Congress, Constitution, and Savannah, which are unquestionably very fine vessels of their class, are line-of-battle ships in disguise, and superior to our own ships in weight of metal. It is even affirmed that these frigates have been sent out expressly prepared for an encounter with our 80-gun ship, the Collingwood. These apprehensions are altogether unfounded. In the first place, the list of the two squadrons which has gone the round of the papers, and was sent to this country from Lima, is in accurate ; two more frigates have joined the British Ad miral, one Of which is, we believe, the Grampus, a razeed 74, formerly the Tremendous. In the second place, we have taken the trouble to compare the armament of the frigate Congress, the flag-ship of the American Commodore, and the armament of the Collingwood, flag-ship of Sir E. Sey mour. The comparison gives the following results 1 8 68-pounders on lower deck: • 20 32-pounders on lower deck. Collingwood 4 08-pounders on main deck. 24 32-pounders on main deck. 1 24 32-pounders on upper deck and forecastle. 80 Besides field-pieces and boat-guns, which do not count in her mounted armament. conzress f 6 68-pounders. , t5O long 32-pounders. Perhaps the American vessel mounts four more guns than are given in the return from which we quote ; but without in the least detracting from the merit of those frigates, it is preposterous to put them on an equality with vessels of the class of the Collingwood or the Superb. We have, or shall soon have, in the Pacific one 80-gun ship, four frigates, three corvettes, and two or three steamers; the Americans have three first-class frigates, four corvettes, and a schooner—no line-of-battle ship, and no steamer. With this force the American Commodore will be called upon to take an an active part in the warwith Mexico, to blockade a large extent of coast, perhaps to support operations in California, and to protect the immense fleet of whalers which resort to the South Seas from the ports of New England. We need scarcely add that a hostile collision with the British squad ron would be a most formidable addition to these arduous duties of the United States' officers on this station ; and although we sincerely hope that no such calamity will occur, we cannot entertain the smallest apprehensions as to the re suit, and we are convinced that the superiority of our 'forces in the Pacific at this time will prove an additional induce ment to the maintenance of peace.— Times.

The next in age is the King of the French, born October 5, 1773. THE TIARA OF THE POPE.—The triple crown which is now used at the Coronation of his Holiness is the same that Napo lean presented to Plus VII. ; there is also another which was given by Pope Gregory XVI. The tiaras and 'nitres are kept at Fort St. Angelo, where they are taken back after the ceremory. The tiara given by Napoleon is of white velvet ; the three crowns are of sap.. phires, emeralds, rubies, pearls, and diamonds ; on the top is a large emerald surmounted by a diamond cross. This tiara is estimated at 80,000 Roman crowns (about 17,0091.) On Monday morning, at two o'clock, as the Rouen Railway train was coming up to St. Pierre d'Authils, near Vernon, a single man who had gone on the:wrong side, and fallen asleep, was suddenly roused, and was hurrying acro2s back to his post, when he was run over and killed.

AN OLD MANUSCRIPT.—A letter from Odessa says—d " Dr. Pinner, one of the professors of the University of Berlin, well known for his knowledge of the llebrew language and translation of the Talmud, has just discovered in this city a parchment manuscript of the prophet Habakkuk, of the ninth century. This curious mane script is remarkable for not having the points and accents in the same way as any other known manuscript of that period. A de. scription of the new discovery is to be speedily published here, at the expense of the Imperial Archeological Society." EXPORTS.

The port of Harwich was for a considerable period the great packet boat station for the North Seas. Situated upon the most convenient point for the run from England to many of the principal sea-ports of the north of Europe, it com manded, before the introduction of steam, much of the mail and passenger traffic to Belgium, Holland, and the countries bordering the Baltic. It is the intention of the Eastern Counties Railway and the projected Harwich steam shipping companies to make a vigorous effort for the restoration of the place to somewhat of its former importance as a packet station, and by placing it in direct communication by rail with London, to make the route through Essex, embarking at Harwich, the principal highway to Holland, thus saving the tedious navigation of the river and the Swinn, and re ducing the time of transit between London and Rotterdam by a very considerable proportion. An experimental trip, with the view of ascertaining by actual experience in what time the journey from London to Rotterdam, by Harwich, could be performed, took place last Wednesday, the directors of the Eastern Counties and Eastern Union Railways being the gentlemen under whose auspices the experiment came off. The distance between _London ana JeocCenfarn, toy irrarWlon, as &Dour aza mlles, the land journey to Ipswich comprising 68, and the run across, the remaining 154. The trip was accomplished on Wednes day in about fifteen hours and a quarter, including several stoppages for pilots off the Brill, and a detention of nearly an hour for the Custom-house inspection upon entering the Meuse. We may add, too, that the wind, which freshened considerably towards evening, was right in our teeth, accom panied by a slight swell from the eastward. Making allow ances, therefore, for these unfavourable circumstances, it may be fairly presumed that the sea passage from Ipswich to Rotterdam may be performed without much difficulty in about twelve hours, while the transit from town by rail need not occupy more than two additional hours—the re sult being, that letters written and papers published in London early in the morning may be received in Rotter dam, the Hague, and the surrounding towns, on the same evening. The special train which contained the experimentalists of Wednesday left the Shoreditch station at half-past five A.M., and cracked on through the meadows and woods of Essex at a goodly pace to Ipswich. There the Orwell steamer lay gay with colours, ;and musical with overplus steam, waiting to perform her part in the race. No delay occurred, and within ten minutes we had exchanged the railway carriage for the deck, and were gliding down the quiet pastoral river, shoot ing by its weirs and abounding fishing station, en route for Holland. The little town of Harwich, with its flotilla of boats lying idly before it, was soon passed to the right, and the German ocean opened gralually to the view, the long low coasts of Suffolk and Essex stretching away, dimmed by the summer haze on either hand. Scattered trawlers and small fishing craft beat lazily about in the light breeze; a vast fleet of boats were dredging for cement—an odd sounding species of industry (we should as soon think of fishing up ready made warming-pans,) Felixtown and its martello tower appeared like grey specks to the left, and the distant sails of vessels in the Swinn threaded on the horizon like beads. The weather was delightful—the easterly breeze just rip pling 4,be undulations of the slowly heaving swell, and tem pering the atmosphere to a pleasant coolness. The day wore on agreeably, but the sun was low in the horizon ere the sails of the Goree pilot-boat were descried looming through the light vapoury haze which hung over the ocean. As we passed through the clumsy Dutch craft riding at anchor— the sweep of his bright polished bows plunging heavily into the short head-sea which the freshening breeze had raised, the pilot, a fine hardy-looking seaman—decidedly Datch built as well as his vessel—pulled on board, busily employed in bracing up his second or third pair of trousers with a piece of spun yarn, and was quite astounded by the intelligence which reached him from a dozen voices at once, that we were from London that morning. The Dutchman walked aft, gave the spoke of the wheel a wrench, signed to the captain to move on, coiled up the lead-line in his hand, and then said it was quite impossible. A copyof the Morning Chronicle of the day was then put into his hands—he glanced at the date—hove the lead phlegmatically—walked to the helms ' man—" South-east by South"—and then said, a Ver fasht; ver fasht, indeed." The rest of the voyage was soon performed. The low sandbanks which fortify Holland against the assaults of her perpetual enemy, the sea, hove up on the horizon—with the towers of distant churches looming dimly through the even ing mist. Then we wound our way through the compli cated channels by which the Meuse is entered, and were soon gliding up its quiet sedgy stream—remarking the lazily turn ing windmills—the snug Dutch hamlets—with their steep red roofs, half embesomed in green trees—the willowy months of half stagnant canals and creeks opening to the main stream—the interminable rows of trees stretching far along the banks, in monotonous lines along the swampy level, the pile of bigger trees occasionally kept in countenance by rows of junior branches of the same vegetable family. Here and there you saw the masts and long vanes of Dutch boats moored in canals off the main stream, peering up amid pol lards and elms, and behind low straggling cottages, and around ricketty old windmills. Here and there, too, a crawl ing schuyt brushed lazily by the rushes, drifting with the muddy stream, from the banks of which ever and anon storks, looking like geese in consumptions, rose, and flocks of starlings and curlews came piping by. Groups of sabot-shod, blue-bloused peasantry loitered by cottage doors, and over all the setting sun blazed down, through the summer mist, with that rich golden glory which you see in the pictures of Cuyp. And so we crept up the river until, as the evening was deepening into 'night, we got alongside the great elm lined pier —the well-known Brompjes of Rotterdam. Two of the party, Mr. Beke and Mr. Alfred Cobbold, im mediately started for the Hague with newspapers of the day for his Majesty, the principal officers of state, and the journals of that city. Great satisfaction was evinced at the receipt of newspapers almost wet from the London press ,pres ; and in token thereof their bearers, wh o h a d strolled -almost accidentally into a club-house, were elected honorary mem bers by one unanimous shout of acclamation. Next morning the Nieruve Rotterdamsche Courant ap peared with a jaw -breaking Dutch paragraph, which, being interpreted, is as follows : " We have received this day several English papers—viz, the Morning Ch ron i c l e , Ti mes, and Morning Herald, all of this day's date, June 17. These papers were dispatched per railway from London to Ipswich, and 'from thence by the steam-boat Orwell for this port. The train started at half-past five o'clock, and at half-past seven the steamer arrived in our harbour. As she had to strive against a contrary wind and other obstacles, we trust with confidence that future trips may be performed with still greater rapidity." After an evening pleasantly devoted to the lions of Rotter dam, and a capital supper at the excellent hotel of the Pays Bas, whose marble lobbies and painted sa loons —nay, even the fearful climb up innumerable flights of stairc ases to aerial bed-rooms, commanding a g l or i ous moonlit view of the fine old Dutch town, its jumble of trees, high peaked houses, and ships' rigging —we shall ever remember with pleasure, we started yesterday morning homeward bound, about twenty e minutes after ten, and after a delig htful run, made still more so by ceas e l ess a tt em pts to baffle the heat by exercisingit with all mann er o f pleasant liqui d relics of Holland, we let go our anch or o ff Ipswich at tu. eno'clock, having performed hours. Among passage in about twelve ors Among the gentlemen present were J. B. Cobbold, Esq., chairman, and John Fortman, -W. May, and J. Cobbold, PARLIAMENTARY DIVISIONS From the Votes and Proceedings of the House of gammons. THURSDAY, JUNE 18. SHEFFIELD, ASHTON-TINDER-LINE, AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY (BARNSLEY BRANCH) BILL.
