Tile great difficulty in procuring good genuine old Cognac Brandy, and the high duty charged upon it, have hitherto prevented many persons from using it; but now that a good and genuine article may be obtained, and at a much more moderate rate, it is natural to expect a great increase in the consumption. To meet this demand, Mr. L. E. SEIGNETTE has determined to avail himeif of his long and Intimate acquaintance with the Brandy Trade as an importer. He holds the largest stock of Cognac Brandy, pale and brown, in :his country, and, in accordance with the wishes and recommendations of Ws numerous friends, he has taken out a Wholesale Dealer's Foreign License, which enableS him to dispose of it in quantities of two gallons upwards, duty paid. He pledges himself to sell none but the best OLD COGNAC BRANDY, genuine as imported, and carefully selected. To those who know him, he feels assured that this pledge will be sat'sfactory. To strangers, who can discriminate the soft and fra grant flavour of pure and matured Cognac from the coarse, ardent, ai.d frequently adulterated spirit until now imposed on the public, he recommends a trial, with reliance upon their judgment in favour of the superior quality of his Brandy. Mr. BEIGNi:ITTE begs also to offer to the public the best Hollands Geneva that can be imported. Prices for Cash on delivery, in quantities not less than two gallons, are— 245. per gallon for the best Brown Cognac Brandy. 265. ~ best Pale ditto. 20s. t . best Geneva (llollands). L liberal allowance to the trade, to wheat Mr. SEIGNETTE takes ,he opportunity of offering his Brandies and Geneva in bond at cur rent market prices.

F. FERGUSON CAMROUX, See. B RITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH, NEW-ROAD, LONDON. TILE HYGEIAN, OR MORISONIAN SYSTEM OF MEDICINE. I. All animal bodies consist of fluids and solids. 2. While in a state of embryo all animals consist entirely of fluids. 3. It is from and by the fluids that the solids are formed. 4. The fluids contained in the human body are four times the weight of the solids. 5. The chief of the fluids is the blood, from which all the others are derived. 6. The blood not only repairs every part of the human machine, but also carries with it all the rubbish, or decayed parts, to be depo sited in the intestines, previous to being expelled along with the excrement. 7. The blood is the life—the pri►num mobile—the first agent— from which all others derive their origin. 8. Health depends upon the purity of the blood. 9. The purity of the blood depends upon its having free outlets for its decayed particles. 10. Disease is induced by the choking up of these outlets in the bowels, by reason of an accumulation of glary mucous on the inner surface of the intestines, &c. 11. This accumulation is occasioned by anything that weakens the circulation or hurts digestion, but chiefly by the poisonous drugs and bad treatment of the faculty. 12. The impurities thus detained in the blood occasion every spe cies of disease, according to the quality of the humour, or the parti cular locality in which it is lodged. 13. AR diseases proceed from one source, therefore they must all be cured by one medicine. 14.

The demand both for goods and yarn, continues very limited; and the gradual increase of stocks in the hands of spinners and manufacturers produces a tendency to lower prices, though there is no marked change in general quotations. Unc'er these circumstances, very great anxiety is naturally felt for the speedy passing of the important measures now before Parliament. ROCHDALE, MARCH 23.—We have had a better demand for flannels to-day, but no improvement in prices. Wool still remains dif f icult of sale at former rates. LEEDS, MARCH 24.—We are unable to report any indi cation of improvement in our markets, which remain much in the same state of inactivity as hitherto. Stocks on hand are, however, not so heavy as one might suppose from the protracted stagnation ; a nd our manufacturers will not, in this respect, suffer to any extent, by the reduced value of every description of goods. The next accounts from America are looked for- with great anxiety; should they prove fa vourable, an immediate stimulus to trade is sure to be im parted. HUDDERSFIELD, MARCH 24.—Many buyers have attended to-day's market, and fancy goods for the home trade and those adapted for shipment to America have been extensively bought.

CONFESSIONS OF A PRETTY WOMAN.—The manner in which these papers came into the possession of Miss Pardoe is rather curious. She concludes the account by saying, "From her own hand I received this written record of the past, and I give it (with her permission) to the world, in all confidence that such a transcript of the real struggles of a woman's mind, and of the actual trials of a woman's life, will present more lasting and wholesome interest than the romantio creations of fiction, or the practical miseries of a merely fertile fancy."

The sport, which will be extended this year to two days, is to be of a first-rate character, four races having been appointed to come off on the first day, the 7th of next month, and five events on the second day following. Vicsount Neville, the Hon. R. N. Lawley, and Albert Ricardo, Ert l hate accepted the stewardship. ( t 1 I tr• ~ R. t A '' j c , , ADMIRAL OF THE F,LEIT.

Under this title the following Parliamentary return, moved for by Sir Charles Napier, "of naval officers who have received pensions, or augmentation of pensions, for wounds er hurts, since the Ist day of January, 1841. and the report of the medical officers who surveyed them," has been published, dated Admiralty, March 9, 1846, and signed H. F. Amedroz, chief clerk. No. I.—Extract from the Medical Report on Capt. James Ryder Burton, R.N., dated November 24, 1843.—Captain Burton was wounded by a ball in the left hip, which has not been extracted, and is still lodged in the bone, which is greatly diseased. The wound has never healed; repeated exfoliations of bone have taken place, with a constant dis charge, the whole producing great personal suffering and in jury to his general health ; and having also had the ankle of the same side severely injured by a field-piece passing over it; this injury, on the wound of the hip becoming inflamed, sympathises with the other wound, and adds greatly to his distress. The hip wound still remains open, with great dis charge. Captain Burton is much emaciated, and his coun tenance is indicative of great personal suffering, and there is no doubt that the wound has been, in its consequences to bodily health, very far more than could have arisen from the loss of a limb. No. 2. Extract from the Medical Report on Captain Wil liam Alexander Willis, R.N., dated 23d January, 1845. _ Captain Willis, lately in command of her Majesty's sloop -'''''' Frolic, who, while on duty on shore near the city of Santos, in the Brazils, was, on the sth January, 1844, on returning to his ship, attacked by a party of ruffians (supposed to have belonged to a slave vessel lately captured by the Frolic) and beaten with bludgeons in a most shocking and murderous manner, fracturing his skull and the fore-ann of the left side, and also inflicting four other severe wounds on different parts of his head. He was also dreadfully bruised in several parts of the body by blows inflicted by the bludgeons alluded to ; but there was one of a more severe and dan gerous nature in the immediate neighbourhood of the spinal column. The consequence of these severe and numerous wounds has been a confinement of nearly thirteen weeks in bed on shore, attended with great pain and considerable fever. His constitution has suffered most severely from these severe injuries, and he is frequently attacked by a most distressing pain in the neighbourhood of the fractured skull, incapacitating him from any exertion at the time, and ren dering him liable to an attack of inflammation of the mem branes of the brain from very trivial causes, and putting him, therefore, in constant hazard of his life. The vision is im paired, the free use of both arms diminished, and the com mand of his urinary organs is less in his power than before the wounds were received. He complains also of debility and palpitation of the heart. The injuries received in this case are more detrimental to the constitution than the loss of a limb. No. 3.—Extract from the Medical Report on Commander Henry Chads, dated Feb. 20, 1845. Commander Chads, • when serving as first lieutenant of the Harlequin, in an attack upon Pirates at Merdoo, in the Island of Sumatra, on the 12th February, 1844, received two severe and dangerous sabre wounds; the first divided the whole of the flexor ten dons, arteries, and ligaments, at the left wrist, leaving the hand attached to the fore-arm only by the extensor tendon, ligaments, &c., on the back of the hand. The second was a deep wound, seven inches in length, in the left side, dividing several of the muscles, laying bare, as the surgeon of the Hyacinth states, the angles of the 7th and Bth ribs, and wounding the periosteum covering them. The wounds have been healed some time, but the left hand is irretrievably disabled, and they are equally prejudicial to bodily exertion with the loss of a limb. No. 4.—Extract from the Medical Report on Commander R. J. W. Dunlop, dated 18th May, 1843. Commander Dunlop, while lieutenant of the Favorite, at Tingaraboo, on the 24th June, 1840, while serving on shore in an attack upon one of the native forts in that island, was struck by a musket-ball, which entered immediately under the knee-pan, and passing over the front of the tibia in an oblique direc tion, without apparently injuring the bone, made its exit about three inches lower down. The wound itself was not of great magnitude, but the consequences were severe ; a serious spasmodic affection took place in the limb, attended at one period with symptoms of lock-jaw, and producing contraction of the muscles of the leg and foot, and ulti mately wasting of the limb and a permanent contraction of the muscles and tendons of the posterior part of the leg, which does not allow the heel to reach the ground by about four inches, the whole weight of the body, when this leg is used, being thrown on the toes. Commander Danlop like wise mentions that he is still subject to spasmodic attacks in particular states of weather. On a careful consideration of the circumstances of this case it would appear that the in jury is fully equal to the loss of a limb. No. s.—Extract from the Medical Report on Lieutenant Walter Kendall, dated 22d of February, 1842.—Lieutenant Kendall, of her Majesty's ship Nimrod, was wounded in the attack upon the city of Canton on May 25, which occasioned the immediate amputation of his right leg above the knee. No. G.—Extract from Medical Report upcn Lieutenant Augustus C. Murray, dated Bth of June, 1845.—Lieutenant Murray, when a mate of the Dolphin, in boarding a Brazilian slave brigantine, on the 30th of May, 1841, received a blow of a musket, which fractured the left clavicle, and contused the surrounding parts greatly. There is also on the same side a most severe sabre wound of the wrist, immediately below where the bones of the arm are united to those form ing the wrist, which had completely laid the joint open to an extent of more than two inches, by which the extensor tendons were cut across, and he was thue deprived of the use of the left hand, except in a very limited degree. The wound in question is equal in its consequences to the loss of a limb. No. 7.—Extract from the Medical Report upon Lieutenant Levis Roper Fitzmaurice, dated Oct. 5, 1844.—Lieutenant Fitzmaurice, when serving as mate of her Majesty's survey ing vessel Beagle, and being detached in a beat to the eastern shore in the Gulf of Carpentaria, at a distance of nearly 100 miles from the ship, was wounded, on the 9th of August, 1841, by the accidental explosion of a musket which was e c n a t r e r i i . e e c ci l t b h y e or e e ft o a f n the j officers h u a t n t d e r e e r d h l i,s h e o r b d o e n r s e . s , a T n h d e t h e h e arg e ex ternal wound has not yet healed. The ankle joint appears to be ankylosed, the bones are much enlarged and diseased, and the wound is in its effects fully equal to the loss of a limb. No. B.—Extract from the Medical Report upon Mr. John Davies, Master, dated April 20, 1841.—1 t appears that Mr. Davies is afflicted with a double rupture, proved by the papers and certificates (herewith returned), as well as his own statement, to have been occasioned by the service, and the latter rupture while assisting in placing his ship in position before St. Jean d'Acre. In the action which succeeded Mr. Davies was slightly wounded, by a portion of a shell, imme diately above the os pubis, and exactly in a line with the strap of the truss, adding considerably to the inconvenience of the ruptures. The double rupture, quite independently o f acid pur been ois the Eclair.) the subsequent wound, is fully e q ual to the loss of a limb. * rote.--Those against whom an asterisk is placed have received p co a m id p t e o n t s h a e mtionoftier o i rlo o s f s of clothes. a.it Hallett, A compensation lat e r Mr. Robert Bernard was promoted to the rank of surgeon, out of to his deceased relative, Dir.

The paper read on Tuesday was an essay " On the Relation between the Velocity and the Resistance en countered by Bodies moving in eluids," by J. M. Heppe], Grad. Inst. C. E. The author introduced his subject by demonstrating its scientific interest, and eulogising the efforts of the illustrious men who have brought their energies to bear on it, from the time when Newton first turned his attention to that department of philosophy, to the more recent experiments of Palmer and Macneill, published in the " Transactions of the Institution of Civil Engineers ;" and after apolo gising for his apparent presumption in venturing to add anything to a subject already so extensively investigated, he proceeded to observe that, with the exception of the above-named researches of Palmer and Macneill upon canal boats, all experiments have :been made on bodies of too small dimensions. The communication then noticed the importance of the properties of larger vessels being more clearly ascer tained, and gave a formula for doing this, by observing the diminution of the velocity of bodies, in a given time. when the motive power was withdrawn ; by this it would be ascertained whether any deficiency in speed arose from a defect in the construction of the vessel, or of the propelling machinery. The following example was given :—lf the vessel had been subjected to the action of a force equal to its whole weight, the amount of velocity destroyed in a second would have been 32 feet per second ; therefore, as the distance of 32 feet is to the observed loss of velocity in feet per second, so is.the whole weight of the vessel as shown by its deplacement, to the force by which this loss of velocity has been produced, that is, the united resist ance of the water and air, corresponding to the velocity in question. The method for ascertaing experimentally this position was thus described. To the bowsprit of the vessel, suffi ciently a-head to bo out of the disturbed water, a small iron bracket should be attached, to suspend a slender rod, dipping at it its lower extremity into the water, the part by which it hangs being a few inches below its upper end: upon the lower end, beneath the water, is a metal sphere, and to the upper end is attached a small cord, connected with a rectangular bent lever, the horizontal arm of which works against a graduated arc, so di vided, that when the slender rod is hanging vertically, the ship being at rest, it should be opposite zero on the arc. When the ship is in motion, the sphere, being toted upon by the resistance of the water, is forced from the perpendicular inwards towards the bow of the vessel, the bent lever is drawn upwards by the cord and marks on the arc the amount of force exerted. By watching the variation of this in given times and under certain cir cumstances, the diminution of velocity and consequently the retarding forces can be accurately ascertained.
