By this plan a person may invest any sum, from 11. upwards, and, without any further payment, at once secure a Policy for a certain amount commensurate with the age of the party and the amount deposited. He may also increase Payment, and thereby increase his assurance, decrease it by with drawing iy _ sum at any time, or he may draw eut all he has paid in. „ F or example :—A person, aged Twenty-five, depositing 101. with the Company, will at once secure a Policy for 261. 12s. 3d. ' payable at death, whenever it should happen, with full power to increase, (11crease, or draw out the 101. he has deposited.

Ste. 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 in continental Europe. 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 medi ca l 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 th ese eases.

The circulation given to a statement tending to iirralidate the expression of Dr. Glover's opinion in favour of Pale Ale, compels Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS to connect this renanrkable dis tribution of a calumny with other insidious attack.; upon their firm which they have reason to know proceed from en unworthy and unneighbourly jealousy. Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS, in reply, deem it their best course to adopt the same line of conduct as in the case of the similar perversion and mutilation of Baron Liebig's meaning, so indignantly repudiated by that eminent man himself. They pub lish, therefore, without abridgment, the letter they r, iceived from Dr. Glover, (having his permission to do so) ; a lett es• the more valuable because it was not intended for publication, and i'i an unpre meditated evidence of that learned Chemist's just am maciati on of Pale Ale. DR. GLOVER TO MR. ALLSOPP. "Newcastle-on-Tyne . , April 11. " Sir,—lt was not my intention, in writing the h ty note to The Lancet,' to cast any reflections upon, or to implicate in any way, respectable brewers of pale ale. " When I first saw the statement about the alleged usr of strych nine in bittering ale, I looked upon the assertion as inc.T dible, both on account of the price of the drug and the sympto ¢is it would create ; bat on experiment, I found that strychnine p is sesses such wonderful bitterness, that it might perhaps be used as ATS ADJUVANT at least by UNPRINCIPLED PERSONS. In short. my objet t - was simply to show that the thing was not altogether so ,impossil Ito as it ap peared at first sight to be. " My opinion is, that hops should not enjoy the each': sive privilege of being used for bittering beer ; but I do not pretend t, i discuss the point with practical men. " I know there are bitters which might be used bene.ficially, in a medical point of 'view. " With regard to analysing your beer, my time is tisicen up, so far as analysing and chemistry are concerned, with two , kinds of in quiries -Ist, those which are purely scientific ; and 2d, those which are profitable. If you wish me, in the latter capacity,. to analyse and report on your beer, I, of course, can have no object ion. " I have to prepare for an absence of three or four days 'to-morrow, and so beg you to excuse me replying to the letter of Mr.. Botting„en, for which I am much obliged. (Signed) " Tours, &c., " R. M. GLOVER. " H Allsopp, Esq. " P.S. I presume you will hardly expect me to writ') to ' The Lancet' However, I shall be at home on Thursday tor ening, and most assuredly I have no desire to say anything which c On ld weaken the confidence of the public in your beer. But that I sca not now in the habit of drinking Bitter Beer, I should be glad to show my Confidence by drinking plenty of it." Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS beg to refer to the letter of Mr. HENRY ALLSOPP on this subject, in the " Monthly .Journal of Medical Science " for October, in the concluding paragrap.h of which it is said— " I inserted Dr. Glover's good-natured remark on my Bitter Beer as an ' incidental testimonial' —no more. I never calle dit a cer tificate; nor did I apply to him, or any other medical gent lemon, for one. lam not responsible that such a construction has lb. Ben placed upon the off-hand expressions of good opinion which have been sent to me from all quarters." Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS, in conclusion, wish to. draw the attention of the public and the trade to the fact, that, by this dis ingenuous system of attack and the perversions of facts gratui tously adopted, they are unwillingly drawn into that publicity the courting of which is made an accusation against them. Barton-on-Trent, Oct. 8, 1852. TIMES.—A very curious story of a miraculous vi sion is just now currentamong the Romanists in Eng land. They have received it fresh from France, the coun try in which the vision is said to have occurred. We must, at the very outlet of our remarks, offer something like an apology to all sober-minded people for introducing into these columns names which all denominations of Christians agree to reverence. The fault is not with us, but with those who do not shrink from the inven tion and propagation of this blasphemous buffoonery. If we allude to such matters at all, it is not without adequate cause. Let those who would leave us for a stricter communion with the Roman Church clearly see what they will gain by the exchange. In another portion, then, of our columns this day will be found a report of a discourse delivered on Wednesday of last week by the Rev. Mr. Northcote, a seceder from the Church of England. This gentleman, it appears, has satisfied himself completely of the truth of a story which for its utter and rank absurdity even exceeds the folly of the Holy Coat at Treves, or the winking Madonna, or Lord Shrewsbury's Addolorata and Estatica. Let 'us give him the credit of being de ceived himself. If we may judge by the teneur of his discourse, he has a natural tendency to consume what poor Marryat used to call ." flap-doodle," and flap-doodle is the meat on which fools are fed. It is right that every vision should be attested by a mira cle ; the miracle in this instance is, that :my man with a beard to his chin could stand up and utter delibe rately as truth to an audience of Englishmen the following nonsensical story : In the month of September, 1846, a little peasant boy about 11 years of age, and a little girl about 15, who had been engaged in keeping cows on a spur of the Alps, near Grenoble, came home and informed their master that they had had a wonderful vision of the Virgin Mary in the course of the day. The children had fallen asleep, and, on awaking, perceived that their cows had strayed. They soon found them; but, on turning their eyes in the direction in which they were, were dazzled by an extraordinary light. The occurrence took place at noon, or thereabouts, for only an hour had elapsed since the children had finished their humble dinner. The light they saw "was more glori fied than the sun, of a different colour ; something more red about it than was to be seen about the sun at noonday." The light must have been somewhat powerful to have produced such an effect at such a time, and must, we should have supposed—miracles excepted—have been perceived by some one other than themselves, even in that lonely region. There is no such confirmatory testimony; but no matter. The children were terrified, and the girl dropped the stick which she held in her hand ; whereupon the boy— the Paladin of 11 years old—said, " Pick up your stick again, for if it offers to do you any harm, I will give it a good blow." That is, the boy was to give the " light" a good blow ; a famous Chasseurde Vin cennes he will make one of these days. "By this time the brightness was no longer so indistinct," it had just been described as more glorified than the sun at noon day, and the children perceived in the midst of it a lady sitting on some stones at the head of a fountain then dry. The very same spot had been described a few lines before as one which contained a stream of water where the cows had been made to drink ; but no matter. The lady now came forward and stood, one child in one hand, and one in the other, and informed them that she had en important ccinmunication to make to them. The wrath of her Son w a s heav y a g ainst France for three reasons in especial, and she could not much longer hope to stay his vengeful arm. The first of these reasons was: the desecration of the Sab bath—no very uncommon occurrence in Roman Ca tholic countries for the last 1,000 years, nor at the present day, as all travellers on the continent can tes tify. The second reason that had ca used this majestic lady to descend from her region of celestial glory was that the French waggoners and ploughboys were sadly given to cursing and swearing. T he third lit• tle matter which required amendment, was that the days of fasting and abstinence were not observed as they should be. Inde ire—for these reasons the Virgi▪ n Mary had descended to Grenoble to give the little cowherd and his mate the benefit of a timely hint. The consequences, if this warning were neglected, would be dreadful—first the pommes de-terre were to fall a sacrifice—then the corn —finally, the grapes and walnuts. Then there was to be a pestilence, whish would be especially fatal to little children. There are one or two singular circumstances connect ed with this interview which deserve especia l mention. It appears the Virgin Mary began her discourse in French. How could the children, who only under stood their own patois, recognize any language but their own jargon for French or anything .else ? " In the course of her conversation with the children she began it in French, but when she came to speak of the potatoes they did not know what she was talk ing about." Whence then the interpretation of the prefatory matter ? Surely it was somewhat clumsy in so divine a being to mystify t hese wretched chi▪ i dren by talking to them in a language they did not understand ? To be sure. if t he Vir g in went over . the whole ground again in the Grenoble patois, it would be possible that the childre n should thus have been enabled to bring away her whole messa g e. Such an hypothesis, however, would cast a sad reflec tion upon the management of the divine Ambassa dress—unless we suppose that the French is the lan guage ordinarily in use among beatified spirits, as among diplomatists, and that she forgot herself for the moment; or, if the children had some faint know ledge of the French language, it seems strange that they should have broken down at the phrase " porn mes de•terre." Be this, however, as it may, there another circumstance in the narrative to which we would more particularly allude. At a certain point of the Virgin's discourse the boy perceived her lips to move, but could hear no sound. At another certain point the same phenomenon was repeated with this difference, that this time the girl could hear no sound. Now, when the interview was concluded and the children came to compare notes, it appeared that a mysterious secret had been communicated to the girl first, and then another to the boy. What these secrets are we know not. The Virgin's orders were, that the children were not on any account to disclose what she had said to them, but they have been talked over into communicating their secrets to the Pope in writing. The Pope, it appears, on rending the communications was much affected, and remarked that it was a great grief for France, although the other countries of Europe deserved the punishment as well. Perhaps the communication contained Rachel's verses of the other day. We must refer our readers to another portion of our columns, in which they will find Mr. Northcete's speech at length. The whole story . has received the sanction of the Bishop of the disc >se and of the Roman Catholic clergy. A church is being built upon the mountain, to which the coun try-folk resort us to a holy place, and of course mira clesp er Coate n e e of at the crowds e th m at hs r t es n o h rt t ed pr t e o ten s d e . ex arc performed in great abundance. After our Holy shacked atetothbee any outbreak human folly even in our own times, and at of this gives the reader own doors . ; but . such a story as of the Frencherl but a poor opinion of the ho nestythe French laity. cergy, o r of the . intelligence of befcre in these When columns, it this subject was spoken of wretched imposture wa , s it was hinted that the whole money; and such i s no meredouabt scheme for obtaining the true interpretation. But there would be motive enough posed that the French clergymer, even if we sup e li ▪ n the most general way, to add strength w to wished, their followers. Of course it is a greatthtiheg when faith of divine being steps down to a fountain whenever she is wanted to bear direct or indirect testimony to the truth of a particular form of belief. It would be tri fling with the patience of any man of ordinary no derAanding to make such folly the subject of serious argument. Whether the wretched chil dren were deceived by a Vt'UD apparition or whe thee they really brought home a cock aad-bull story which took with the country side end was subsequently improved by the priests, matters but little. If the Virgin Mary had wished to break Frenchmen of the habit of profane swearing, she would have put her purpose in execution before the middle of the nineteenth century. CHRONICLE.—Cato has been called one of the antipodes, because " trod opposite to the present world." It would seem, therefore, that it is only by a Cato, or by one like him, that general consent can be safely resisted. Public opinion may, however, be defied not only by the most heroic virtue, but also by that perfection of selfishness which approaches the sublime. In the present day we must admit that the clergy—especially the dignitaries .of the Church —afford more and larger specimens of one sort of the heroic than other caste of modern society. The Six Clerks in Chancery were, no doubt, exalted cha racters; but Archdeac on H a l e and roft, Messrs. Prebendaries Moore and Prettyman, and the Right Hon. and Rev. the Master of St. Cross Hospital, far exceed any lay pretenders to the great virtue of con tempt of the world. But it is not enough that Arch deacons and Canons should, as Bacon says, " treed opposite to the present world," for it seems as though every branch of our c ithedral establishments should, and we fear justly ,expose itself to popular indigna tion. The Deans must now have their turn at a job; and a recent case illustrates the rule, that Chapters mustexhaust the -.3 , 8e of Church abuses. The Dean of Norwich, Dr. Pellew, and the Dean of Canter bury, Dr. Lyall, besides their deaneries, were each in possession of a living. Dr. Lyall was rector of Great Chart, in Kent ; Dr. Pellew held the living of St. Dionis Backchurch, in the city of London—both livings in the gift of the Dean and Ch a pt er o f Canter bury. Dr. Pellew never resided ; an d th e on ly re sult of his twenty-one years' co nnec ti on w ith hi s London parish amounted to a subscription of 11. Is. per annum to the schools. Dr. Lyall was a resident. He has lately, and we sincerely regret it, suffered from an attack of paralysis, or something of that kind —an affliction, however, so great that, though he held the distinguished office of Prolocutor in Convo cation, it is well known that he is no t to b e proposed at the ensuing session, and he is q u it e i ncapacitated from clerical or literary work. D r . L yall and Dr. Pellew therefore exchange li v i ngs —D ean L ya ll, a paralytic, and, from necessity, a non-resident, be comes, or is to become, rector of St. Dionis, and the non-resident rector of St. Dionis—Dean Pellew— becomes resident rector of Great Chart. Iu conse quences of all this, Dr. Pellew addresses a pastoral letter to his parishioners of St. Dionis rather taking credit for exchanging his 4001. per annum preferment in London for some 6001. or 7001. a year in Kent; and hinting, which is rather a naive confession, that he had long been on the look out for an opportunity, not of residing among the people of Backchurch—hut of getting rid of them for something better. Dr. Lyall, l on the other hand, gives up Great Chart because he can be of no use to his perish, and takes St. Dionis for precisely the same reason. Afflicted with paraly sis, he cannot serve Great Chart so he resigns it ; filicted with paralysis, he cannot serve St. Dionis so he takes it. Great Chart has, of course, no reason to om judging but St. Dionis has substantial reason ; and, from a document which we printed yester d it has also a tongue to set forth its griev ances. Perhaps, as St. Dionis has never ben blessed with the pleasant presence o f Dr. Pellew durin g the 21 years of his incumbency , the wise Deans thou g ht co mplain, the city parishioners were so used to non-residence that, like the eels, they rather liked skinning. Pro bably Drs. Lyall and Pellew argued that, as there w as no good residence• house on St. Dionis, so it was of the nature of an ecclesiastical economy , or fixed dispensation, that Backchurch must go rectorless till rectors should be no more ; and that therefore—seeing that the rector must, from this great, and invincible, and canonical necessity of the case, be non-resident— it mattered little' to the parish whether the said rector were blind, or paralytic, or fatuous into the bargain. Hence the exchange. The assumption is, that as St. Dionia has not had, so it cannot, must not, shall not have a resident rector. This is the Decanal an exact illUstration of called the antipodean cha awrhogutm, at argument. the Now, euteet, here we cha racter of Deans and Chapters. "They tread opposite to the rest of mankind." An abuse, in these days, is, elsewhere, a thing to be rectifi e d— no t be continued a matterse eca basso s e of it has been an abuse. This is thes an abuse rulein as State—the Church takes the antipodean view. The r es t o f t h e wor ld will feel that, supposing it were beyond the bounds of clerical pos sibility to secure a resident rector to St. Dionis, the question might still be fairly asked—must the parson of Sc. Dionis live at Canterbury, and need he be suffering from paralysis? Is it not possible to rele gate the parish priest of Fenchurch-street, say to Finsbury-circus ?—and is a man in fair health wholly unattainable ? Again, it will be demanded, if unhappily the Dean of Canterbury is disabled from attending to the concerns of his own Cathedral— of the city of Canterbury —of its educational and charitable institutions and establishments—of Con vocation—of literature, in which addition to this sad heap of inca 'ties should . pe . ct Lyall wantonly add the • • impossibility of doing justice to a cure of souls in the city of London ? Was it not enough, involuntarily, to l neg ect deanery ? design Why, voluntarily an d o f desi - aforethought, plan and resolve to neglect poor St. D . • ? So of Dionis Dr. Pellew. Is riot the Deanery of Norwich enough to satisfy the craving for usefulness which agitates the soul of the late rector of St. Dionis ? Is the town of Norwich an exact pattern of a Christian city ? In order to do his duty in the precincts of his own cathedral, and to strengthen him in reclaiming the vicious and neglected capital of East England, must the Dean of N orw i c h l o it er his summer holm in the sylvan solitudes of the Weald of Kent ? St. Dionis, as of late administered, did not, an yhow, pledge Dean Pellew t o b e a b sent from his deanery—Great Chart does. Is the patronage of the Dean and Chapter of Canterbury intended to swell the coffers either of the Dean of Norwich, or of an incapacitated Dean of Canterbury ? Is there no London curate who would accept St. Dionis, even without a rectory ? Must the souls of Fenchurch-street, Lime-street, and Philpot lane be fixed as a perpetual appanage to whatever of " non-residence, pluralism, and the infirmities of age " —to use the words of the parishioners—occurs among the members or friends of the Chapter of Canterbury ? Finally, is there not one member of that splendid foundation who will protest against this scandal ? And these are the Capitutar Establishments which we, and other defenders of the Church, are called upon to uphole, and, in their hour of peril, to resist any attacks upon. But a Royal Commission is issued to inquire into these establishments, into their reve nues, into their preferment, and into the mode of dis posing of either. And the clerical members of this Commission are Dignitaries, and Dignitaries alone —not a parish priest amongst them. Dean Lyall and Deau Pellew, or such as them are to be nominated Royal Commissioners to inquire into the capitular disposal of preferment—the Deans of Canterbury and Norwich devising a scheme to prevent semi.simoniacal exchange of benefices! In another quarter we are glad to note at least some, though a tardy and reluctant, concession to public opinion. Mr. tit histon is reinstated in the mastership of the Rochester Cathedral School. Not that such a tardy act is anything like justice on the part of the visitor. It is a concession extorted by the force of the times—not a free-will atonement for wrong done. All that the appeal at last turned upon was the most trumpery point of technical chioaue— not whether the facts of Mr. Whiston's publication were in the main true—not whether his appeal for his poor scholars was founded on equity and moral right—not whether his claim that all members and departments of a capitular body should share in the changes consequent upon the altered value of money —but upon the dry question, whether Mr. Whiston's mode of stating circumstances amounted, in th e l an . guags of a certain constitution, to a formal gravius delictum. Oa this worthless issue Mr. Whiston has been deprived of his office for more than three years. But at last he is reinstated, and the public will form a very simple estimate of his case. If Mr. Whiston's facts were true, he ought never to have been sus pended ; if they were false, he ought not to have been restored. It is a question of matter, not manner. The Bishop of Rochester has deprived his final sen tence of the solemnity of an act of justice, and what ought to have been conceded to an honest appeal has beau surrendered with that awkwardness which would have been "unjust still"---only the Commission was looming in the future. However, we must yield to the Bishop of Rochester what the Deans of Canter bury and Norwich are insen.ible of —some apprecia tion of, if not respect for, public opinion. THE POST-OFFICE IN CALIFORNIA. —Thero are no let ter carriers, and the inhabitants have to call at the Post office for their letters. When a mail arrives there is a a great confusion of people, numbering from two to five thousand, waiting their turn in six rows of from six to eight hundred each. THE ENVOY FROM PITCAIRN'S ISLAND, now in this country, married Sarah Christian, granddaughter of Fleichor Christian, the lieutenant of tho Bouncy, who p tinned and carried into off , ct the memorable mutiny in cue South Sea. The arrangements contemplated in connexion with that solemn act of reverence for the memory of the Great Duke have ungone a slight modification. It was in tended that on the night previous to the interment the body should be removed to the !Horse Guards, act that the funeral procession should be formed at that point. In this the precedent of Nelson's interment was followed, for his remains rested on the night price4ing the burial at the Admiralty. But it has been justly considered that Nelson had. no town-house like the Duke, and that Apsley-house, therefore, is the proper point at which to form the procession. In accordance with this view, the body will remain at Chelsea Hospital till the morning of the 18th, and when it reaches Apsley-house, those of whom the cortege is to consist will fall into their right plf.ces. The military escort of the funeral will consist of detach ments from every regiment in the service—of three bat talions of the Guards, 84 pensioners, representing the age to which the Duke had attained, the 33.1 Foot, the Rifle Brigade, six squadrons of cavalry, and 17 suns. The artillery will head the procession, but it is intended that the firing should be at the Tower, which is suffi ciently near for the purpose, and is the more appro priate from the Duke having been Constable. Deputa tions of 100 men, with their proper complements of officers, will also attend on the occasion from each of the five continental armies in which the Duke held the rank of field-marshal; end thus, in addition to a complete representation of the military force of this country, there will be assembled on the occasion types of those of Russia, Austria, Prussia, Spain, and Portugal. It is not believed that more than forty equipages will be required in the procession, which will be mainly conducted on foot. Both at St. Paul's and at Chelsea Hospital the preparations for the approaching ceremonial are in rapid process of execution. The hall of the hospital has been completely cleared, preliminary to the arrangements for the lying in state, and the additional facilities required for ingress and egress are also being provided for. The great work of fitting up the cathedral is likewise progressing satis factorily, and it is expected that, irrespective of the pro cession, at least 10,000 persons will be accommodated with seats in the interior. There is no doubt that the coup d'ceil of the gigantic edifice, brilliantly illuminated from end to end, and with the light of day completely excluded, will be inexpressibly grand. Several imper fect trials of the effect produced have already been made, and with the most striking results. It is to be hoped that the attention which has recently been attracted among us to the subject of artistic design will not be thrown away on the approaching occasion, and that a national act of homage to departed greatness may not be disfigured by vulgar and tasteless devices. The funeral car in which Nelson was conveyed to St. Paul's combined in its structure the forms of a fourpost bedstead, a ship, a Greek altar, a hearse, and halt-a-dozen other incon gruities. What will foreigners think of us, and what can we think of ourselves, if; after so many years of in creased civilization, we evince our sorrow as a people by arep ? etition of such extravagant and ludicrous absur dities ATROCIOUS MURDERS IN STAFFORD. SHIRE. One of the most tragical murders which has been committed in Staffordshire for many years, was perpe trated early on Monday morning, near the county town, owners the of v lande r a l field Stafford. The pla ce w h ere it o ccurr e d i s sit ua te about three miles from Stufford,on the road toWolverhampton, several down a na rrow and secluded lane. The house was occu pied by an aged cou pl e name d Bl ae kb an d , w h o, i n addi tion o e to sandbs of land. uilding N s a atoraljwy of a ere also t h wpenu rious turn, and ima g i n i ng th e sa f est pl ace f or hi s wea l t h to be on his own pers on , h e i nvar i a bly carr i e d a b out w i t h him a large quantity of gold, and it is supposed to have been the knowledge of this fact which induced some person or persons to conceive and perpetrate the horrid idea of murdering the old man and woman for the pur pose of possessing their wealth. About 8 o'clock, a.m , information was sent to Stafford that a cottage at Moss Pit was on fire, and engines were immediately dis patched to extinguish the devouring element. On breaking open the door of the house, the fire was discovered to have originated in one of the bedrooms, but the smoke and flames prevented any one from ascending the staircase. Ladders were immediately procured and holes made in the roof of the building, and the fire engines having subsequently arrived, the flames were extinguished. On ascending the stairs, the old man and woman were discovered at the further end of the room on a bedstead, still burning. Upon examina tion, it was discovered that the head of Blackband had been cloven with some heavy weapon, the frontal bone being completely smashed, and the back of the head opened. The body was reduced almost to a cinder with the exception of the head and one of the legs. Across the bottom of the bed lay the burnt trunk of his wife's body, arms, and legs being entirely gone. She had re ceived a heavy blow over the right eye. For many years the old couple, through infirmities, had slept apart in different rooms in the house. The stairs to the old man's room ascending from the house-place, and those to his wife's bed room at a distant part of the dwelling from the pantry. At the bottom of the pantry stairs is a large pool of blood ; and it is supposed that, after the murderer had dispatched the old man, ho pro ceeded to the other part of the house, where his second victim was descending the stairs, when ho immediately dealt the fatal blow which deprived her of life. Having committed this twofold deed of guilt, ho must have carried her through the house to the bedroom of her husband, and placing her on his bed, have sot fire to the clothes, intending to destroy every vestige or mark which would tend to his detection by burning the house and all that it contained, and thus lead to the sup position ' that the fire was one of accident. The dog, which was kept in the house, was found in the well op posite the door, a heavy blow on the head having, no doubt, previously deprived it of the power of making any alarm. The murder must have been perpetrated after daylight. At half-past seven o'clock a gentleman passed the house, when there was no sign of fire, but he observed a man walking through the adjoining field, as if leaving the house. No clue, however, has at present arisen as to whom the guilt of this barbarous transaction attaches ; but it is supposed that the murderer could not have completed the deed without having marks of blood upon some parts of his body or clothes, which may load to his apprehension.

Since the last Midsummer assize the town of Sheffield has been the scene of an appalling number of the blackest crimes. There have been two instances of cool premedi tated murder, besides several homicides of a less heinous character. Another death has occurred this week, which has led to the apprehension of a young man on the charge of having slain his own father. The name of the deceased was Francis Brice. He was about 54 years of age. He resided in a dingy court in Coalpit-lane, and obtained a livelihood by vending firewood. He had a son residing with him—a violent-tempered young fel low, named Richard Brice, who has scarcely attained his majority. He works at Mr. Patrick's saw•mill in Bond lane. He is a young man of most dissipated habits, and being of a very irascible temper he seldom went home tipsy without creating a disturbance with his family. On Saturday night he was out thinking till past midnight, and when he went home he began to chastize his sister because of some opprobrious epithets that some few hours before she had applied to a young woman with whom he keeps company. The father and mother inter posed, and a great disturbance ensued; but it was an inci dent to which the neighbo d urs were so accustomed, as coming from that particular family, that they took no notice of it. The mother sunk down upon the floor in a fit, and the young man, having now less opposition to contend with, was able to indulge his violence to greater purpose. Some hard fighting ensued. The father having been struck at least once with great violence by the son, and seeing no hope of quelling his rage. ran out of the court and thouted for a watchman.

Tho circumstances of the case will be investigated by the coroner, probably this (Tuesday) morning.

BRITISH. AND YANKEE CLIPPERS.—OD Saturday morning the Aberdeen clipper Stornaway, Captain John Robertson, arrived in the Downs from, China ; and another Aberdeen vessel, the Chrysolite, Captain En right, one of the four clippers which were to accompliih a race from the Celestial Empire to the Mersey, arrived at Liverpool, having made their voyage in 104 dep. The Stornoway and Chrysolite left China the same day, and two Yankee clippers were to follow in three or four days after. From the leg of the Chrysolite we find that she left China on the 9th July, and was in company with the Stornaway until the let of September (43 days), when they parted off Cape Reciffee. The Chrysolite was built in Aberdeen ; and certainly it is gratifying to know that that town cell turn out clippers capable of outselling the " boasted Yankees." It may perhaps be well to mention that these vessels bring the first cargo of new teas to England. What adds to the celebrity of the Stornaway is, that although one-third of her crew deserted, she, nevertheless, came home with the other two•thirds only. ARRIVAL OF Two ARABIAN HORSES FOR lIBR MA JEsTY.—On Friday afternoon a number of persons assembled at Waterloo road terminus to see t he arrival of two splendid Arabian horses, sent by the Peoha cf Egypt as a present to her Majesty. The noble animals appeared high bred, and were accompanied by two cative attendants in their eastern costumes. After some trouble, they wore taken to some livery stables iu the Belgrave-read to be properly broken in. SHEERNESS, OCT. 25,8 sat. By a private letter from Greenock, dated the 22d inst., we are informed that her Majesty's steam-vessel Cy clops, commanded pro tem. by Lieutenant Seacombe, of the Horatio, screw steam guard-ship, arrived at that port, on the 12th instant, having towed the Blazer from Gravesend in six days. The whole of the boilers (four in number) intended for the Duke of Wellington, are not made, nor the engines for that ship ready, and it will be the end of the present month ere any portion of the machinery will be embarked in the Blazer. This vessel at one time can only stow one boiler and a part of the machinery ; hence she will have to make four trips from Greenock to Portsmouth. Under the most favourable conditions of wind and weather, it is calcu lated that the Cyclops will occupy ten days in towing the Blazer the distance between these ports. The end of the present year will consequently have nearly ar rived before the whole machinery for the " great Duke" has reached its destination. The committee appointed to devise the best plan for adapting the Royal Albert to screw propulsion have re conia3ended that she should be longthened sternways 35 feet, and furnished with engines of the actual power of 1,000 horses. Should this proposition be acted on, the Royal Albert will bo upwards of 4,000 tons burthen, and consequently much larger than the Duke of Wel lington. The following circular relative to the future payment of the seamen, &c., in the royal navy, has very recently been issued t) all commanders-in•chief, captains, com manders, and commanding cilicvrs of Her Majesty's ships and vessels : ‘i Whereas, by an act recen►,ly passed, of the 15th and 16th Victoria, chap. 46, it is directed that so much of the 18th section of the 2d George IV., chap. 20, which enacted that there shall always be left six months' wages of the seamen, marines, and boys of the fieet in arrear and unpaid,' shall be repealed ; and whereas it is the intention of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, not only to carry the provisions of the first mentioned act into effect immediately after the time prescribed by the said act—viz., on the Ist of Oct. next, but also, as soon as practicable afterwards, to es tablish such an amount of ' monthly pay' as together with the monthly payment of allotment to the wives and relatives of seamen, and the value of clothing, to bacco, and other articles taken up by the seamen out of the public stores for their own use, shall, upon an aver age, as near as may be, leave only one month's gross pay in hand for casualties; it is hereby directed, in the first place, that after the 30th inst. the commanding of ficers of her Majesty's ships in any port where there is an establishment of pay clerks (or destined to arrive at any one of such ports), shall, instead of waiting until there he twelve months' wages due to the sea men as heretofore cause the pay books of the ships under their command to be made up in the manner heretofore done, according to the existing regulations, but without retaining six months' pay in hand. One month will be allowed for completing every book, in order that the moneys paid monthly—the monthly allotments—and all other charges incurred during the period for which the pay books shall be made out, shall be set off thereon, and the balance up to the end of the pay book paid to the seamen on such day after the termination of the month allowed for making up and examining the pay books as the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty may fix.—By command of their lordships, " Admiralty, Sept., 1852."

THE AR WY. Captain the Hon. Sr. George Foley is appointed as sistant military secretary for Ireland, vice Hon. Major Forester, deceased. CAVALRY FIELD -DAY.—The ISt Dragoon Guards, 4th (Royal Irish) Dragoon Guards, 11th hussars, and the Royal Horse Artillery, assembled on Saturday in tho Pceoix Park, Dublin, and were reviewed by the Earl of Cardigan. The troops went through their different evolutions in a manner that elicited the commendation of the noble earl, and reflected the highest credit on their discipline. The equipage of the Earl and Countess of Eglinton, Sir Edward Blakeney, and others, were pre sent at the review. We regret to announce the death of William Hunt, Esq., of the 80th Regiment, who died at soa on a voyage to England upon sick leave. This gallant officer never recovered the injury he had received at Rangoon, where his lamented father, captain and paymaster of the 80th, fell from fever. Lieut. Huut was so esteemed by his brother officers that they have ordered a monument to be erected to his memory in Thomas's Church Dublin. Captain Carow's troop, King's Dragoon Guards, ha.., arrived in Carlow, from Dublin. THE LATE EDIFICE IN HYDE PARK. The whole of the materials of the old building have now been removed from Hyde Park, the last column having been carried away on Tuesday, and nothing now remains but to level over the surface again, and eradi cate the last traces of the gorgeous crystal vision of 1852. This is already in progress, and the Crystal Palace ha et left not even a trace behind. The removal of the mate rials to Sydenbam was contracted fur by Messrs. Young hepuesbraatnidenaanden the Son, 9 ' of New gu 300 horses and carts in the work. They commenced thA Gerseit.rd and 's Hall,he time who employed empleyed was 91 days, exclusive of Sundays, in the course of which they conveyed to Sydenham, a quantity of glass, timber, and iron, amounting in weight to between 17,000 and 18,000 tone. It is understood that the offers of large sums made by several parties for a monopoly of the "pickings" to be found beneath the boards of the Crystal Palace, were all refused by the contractors, Messrs. Fox and Henderson, who generously gave permission to the labourers em ployed upon the spot to appropriate to themselves any " treasure trove" which they might chance to light upon in removing the planks of which the floor was compo se d , and in turning up the turf below. The fi n dings h aye been quite a godsend to some of the men upon the works. Coins of copper, silver, and gold; crotchet-purses, studs, rings, ito., with siver and gold headed canes, have turned up daily. and the other day a poor man was fortunate enough to stumble on a purse containing as much e s 71 . or 81. It would seem from this that all the treasure lost last year in the Great Exhibition did not fall into the hands of the light fingered gentry, though many of them doubtless made a harvest of the spoils, but that a largo portion of it slipped through those Provoking board,, which, as our re aders will doubtless r emember, stoo d ' just wide enough to swallow up any stray shilling s or wen, unhappily, which mi g ht dro p fro m their hands, but unhapp ily, just too narrow to afford the l re, oser a chance of recovery. T HE MURDER OF M. MLNIEOLD.-1110 LeinSier E xpre ss gins the following additional particulars rela tive t o this most atro c i ous murder;. .. It appears that Mr. Morris was the purchaser of the Mountpleasaut property, under the Encumbered Estates Court, his bro• thet'a wifa having been the previous owner. The pur chase-money not having been lodged till after November, Mrs. Morris claimed the rent due up to that date, and the cons( queue° was that the tenantry refused to ac knowledge her brother-in-law as their landlord. In p ir- Ritmo, however, of an order of the Commissioners, the land was forthwith cleared of the defaulters, and thus delivered up to Mr. Morris. Mr. Manifold was the pel tion who carried the evictions into effect, and in that we believe l es th e c hi e f cause o f hi s unpopu l ar i ty an d au b ' I sequeut melancholy death." The Monileur publishes the f o llowing letter, ad dressed to the Minister o f M ar i ne by M. Bellot, the French naval officer si ho accompanied the expedition to the Arctic) Seas in search of Sir John Franklin : P London, Oct. 13, 1852. " Monsieur le Ministre,—l have the honour to in form you of the arrival at Aberdeen of the schooner lea s t ice t o did give iv e not a s atisfactory permit tls Prince Alb e rt, w ith 18 men, w hi ch was sent last year in search of Si r J o h n F ran kli n.

Th e c i rcumstances of our navigation through the accountuntil re of ceet t l h y a t s o e ascertain in in what di rect i on and how far our predecessors had advanced. If we h ave not found the solution of a search so repl e t e w i th interest, we are enabled at left behind us engaged in so perilous an enterpriz "Having encountered the ice on the 23d of June, 1851, we reached on the 10th of July the Danish es tablishment of Uppernavick, on the western coast of Greenland, where we procured a sledge drawn by six Esquimaux dogs. The whalers we met on the Bth and 12th informed us that three tombs, bearing names and dates, and other unequivocal proof s of a perma nent residency, indicated that Beechy Island, in Bar row's Straits, had been one of the winter quarters of Sir John Franklin from 1545 to 1846. During more than 20 days we endeavoured, in conjunction with the American ships of war, to ascend northward along the eastern coast of Baffin's Bay, opening for ourselves a passage through the ice, sometimes by crowding sail and directing the vessel as a wedge between the pieces of ice, and at others by sawing the ice or blowing open a passage with gunpowder. "On several occasions the vessel was hemmed in by immense fields of ice several leagues in extent, but our light schooner, rising above it, escaped without injury. Everything beside was ready, and provisions constantly stored on the deck, in the event of the vessel being broken to pieces by the ice. The wind, which no doubt had not blown from the north as much as usual, had left the extremity of Baffin's Bay en tirely blocked up. Numerous icebergs, or mountains of ice, from 100 to 150 feet in height, surrounded us on all sides, and it was with difficulty we extri cated ourselves from that dangerous neighbourhood. Having left the 74 deg. 45' N. lat., we succeeded at last in crossing the principal mass. More to the south, on the 2d of September, we reached the entrance of Barrow's Straits, endeavouring to pene trate westward, where we expected to meet the Eng; lish squadron. Fresh obstacles obstructed our passage, and the interval was employed in visiting the eastern coast of Prince Regent's Inlet. It was also of the highest importance to call in at Leopold's Harbour, where we might obtain the information we required. "In the evening of the Bth Mr. Kennedy, with a boat and four men, left the vessel, then distant a few miles from the coast. During the night northern winds and the current drove us southward, and at break of day we found ourselves 20 miles further, forced along by the ice, which thus separated us from the boat we had entirely lost sight of. We were accordingly obliged to take refuge in Batty's Bay. The next day I endeavoured to repair by land with three men to Leopold Harbour, not knowing whether Mr. Kennedy had been able to reach it; but the quantity of snow compelled us to return on board after three days' painfnl exertions, sometimes with snow up to our knees, and having once employed fourteen hours in walking five miles. It was quite impossible to proceed thither by sea. The ice formed every day a crust sufficiently thick to stop us, hut not strong enough to allow us to quit our boats. Tbo fate of our commander, moreover, was then decided, for we knew that if he had reached Leopold Harbour he had there found shelter, and an ample supply of provisions, left by Sir Jams Ross in 1849. In the first days of October I made a second attempt with a sledge, but our impatience directed us more than our prudence, and the lees giving way again baffled our hopes. A third attempt was made with a boat, which we drew 50 or 60 miles on the ice along the coast, and on the 17th of October we had the good fortune of again meeting our travelling companions in good health, and having only suffered on our account, for they did not know what had become of us. " The rest of the year was employed in securing the vessel in her winter quarters, surrounding it with a thick snow wall, building on the ice with snow workshops end stores for our provisions, and prepar ing for our winter excursions sledges, mocassins, clothes, and snow shoes. " A detachment of four men, of whom I was one, under the orders of Mr. Kennedy, repaired on the sth of January to the spot where the Fury was wrecked in 1825. The sun disappeared from the 30th of October to the 15th of February, and it was princi pally by moonlight that our short excursion was accomplished. The result of the visit was the dis covery of a great quantity of provisions, carefully landed there by Sir Edward Parry amid the perils of a shipwreck. We also ascertained that nobody had visited those shores since 1849. Towards the end of February we again left the vessel for the same coast, carrying our provisions by small quantities in the direction we intended to traverse, and amidst the incidents inseparable from a temperature which, on the 14th of March, fell to 44 deg. (centigrade) below the freezing point. " The interminable delays of a journey along a coast lined with ice, and where we were often obliged to open a passage for our sledges with axes through the snow, prevented us reaching Brentford Bay before the 6th of April. Eight men, commanded by an officer, then returned to the vessel, while Mr. Kennedy, four men, and myself continued our journey in two Indian sledges drawn by five horses. Having found a pas sage to the west at the bottom of that bay, we pro ceeded in the same direction to the 100th degree of western longitude (from Greenwich), travelling over plains of snow so uniform that it was only by digging holes we knew that we were on land, and not on the ice of the Polar Sea. We ascended then to the north and east, in the direction of Cape Walker, to which we attached the greater importance es we considered it to have been the point of departure of Sir John Franklin for the unknown regions of the north. It had been for some time found impossible to travel by day, on account of the reverberation of the light on these eternal snows. After each of our marches we built a hut with snow, which offers the surest • and most comfortable shelter against ' the rigour of the climate. Oa the 24th of April, the thermome arestswlaesiti ter rose to the freezing point, and we . m ere then sufficiently inured to cold to sleep . in , open air, which we repeated as often as possible in order reached Leopold Harbour, having crossed Cape Walker to the east. Scurvy had for some time shown itself among us, and we stopped there to avail our. selves of the means of combating the malady.

The doctor himself, and the noble , Hepburn, former companion of Sir John Franklin, were among the sick. doctor ßay; and, Thanks to the intelligent care of our surgeon, W e quickly recovered, and at the end of July we com menced sawing a passage through the ice for our vesse l, On the 6th of Augu s t shc was at last releaFei from her prison, not having h a d a n inch of water under her k cal during the winter.
