BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. Doctor of Medicine. Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hill, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. In order that it may be really the cause of mut ual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused .the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and conseauence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy rictim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired In early life or trom the follies of advanced age, while suffering trent their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination • n ascertaining the causes of iisease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by hia possession of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas zertify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a ;uarantee far his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

THE MUTUAL PRINCIPLE applied to Life Assurance has met with extraordinary and long continued success. FIRE ASSURANCE, however, is almost exclusively conducted on the proprietary system. The evidence Is c , mplete that large profits are derivable from Fire Assurance. BY THE MUTUAL PLAN all these profits are divided among the Assured, who alone have the control. The Directors are chosen by the Members from among themselves. The success which has attended the progress of the British Mutual Life Assurance Company hag led to the establishment 4 this Society on these p inciples, and which is now effecting Assurances against Fire at the London and Provincial Offices, where Prospectuses may be obtained.

(From last night's Gazette.) ADMIRALTY, JUNE 7.—The Lards Commissioners of the Admiralty having referred to a Committee of Flag OWeers the consideration of the naval uctions for which mrtlals should be granted, in accordance with the spirit of the Queen's most gracious intentions, as signified in the Gazette of the 4th of June, 1847, and her islkiestY having hi en pleased to approve of saseral of the rug gestions submitt e d b y the said Committee, the following notice is issued for the information and guidance of those who may have claims to this honourable distinction:- Ist. The rule. directed by her Majesty to be observed in extending this mark of her royal favour is so com prehensive as to bring within its-scope all officers. sea men, and marines (and soldiers who served as marines), who where present in any action which at the time re ceived the special approbation of the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty. 2ndly. From the commencement of the war in 1793, it was the practice of the Board of Admiralty to no• tice battles of conspicuous merit by the promotion of the First Lieutenant of the ship or ships, or the promotion of the Commander, if the action was fought by a small vessel ; and conformably with this practice, it is her Majesty's pleasure that persons of every rack who were present in such actions, during the wars commencing in 1793, and ending in 181.5, and now living, shall receive a medal comme morative he they o y f na their ay h a ve b meritorious een e engaged, services; age d , accordinga dt ey are re quired forthwith t o state the i r claims for each action in which toth to e form (A) her eun t o annexed, and transm i t t h e same the Secretary of the Committee of Flag Officers, Admi ralty, London. 3dly. Her Majesty has also been pleased to take into her gracious consideration the many instances of gal lantry displayed by officers, seamen, and marines in boat actions during the same period, and to direct that such service, if distinguished by the promotion of the officer conducting the enterprise, sh 'A entitle those who were present, and now living, to a-anedal; provided the an. : swers, to be given in the form (B), shall enable the Com mittee to ascertain that the claim is well founded. But the officers, seamen, and marines of the ships, from which the boats were detached, are not to participate in a dis tinction which only properly belongs to those personally engaged. 4thly. It is also ordered, that service in the frigates and smaller vessels, which were actually present in any of the great fleet actions mentioned in the Gazette of the 4th June, 1847, for which the captains of the ships of the line received medale, shall entitle those now sur viving of the crew of such vessels to a medal. And all surviving officers, seamen, and marines be longing to ships actually co-operating and present during the siege and capture of Martinique in 1809, Guadaloupe in 1810, Java in 1811, Sr. Sebastian in 1813. for which the army had medals, will be entitled to a similar distinction, if their return, according to form (A), shall enable the Committee to trace the presence and co-operation of the ships to which the applicants belonged. And sthly. Her Majesty having taken into her most gracious consideration the circumstance, that medals have been granted by her Majesty for services rendered by the navy, not only in the wars commencing in 1793, and ending in 1815, but also for services rendered in the late war in China, whilst the intermediate general actions. viz., The attack upon Algiers in 1816, The battle of Navarino in 1822, and The operations on the coast of Syria in 1840, ' are unmarked by any such distinction, has been pleased to direct that the surviving officers, seamen, and marines, engaged in thos e ac ti ons , shall also receive a similar mark of their Sovereign's gracious recollection of their services, and of her desire to record the same; and all such officers, seamen, and marin es are therefore hereby called upon to transmit their claims to such distinction according to the annexed form A., and addressed to the Secretary of the Committee of Flag Officers, Admiralty, London. The following flag- officers have been directed to re assemble, as a Committee for the investigation and adju dication of all claims sent in according to the printed form, viz. : Admiral Sir T. Byam Martin, G.C.B. Admiral Sir W. Hall Gage, G.C.H. Admiral the Hon. Sir Thomas Bladen Capel, K.C.B. Vice-Admiral Sir James A. Gordon, K.C.B. By command of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ASCOT HEATH RACES.—FRIDAY. The wind up yesterday was about on a par with the last day at Ascot, having only the Great Western handi cap and the two Wokinghams to make the list attractive: its influence, however, was small, the company being almost exclusively confined to the sporting classes. The racing commenced half an hour earlier than usual, and was brought to a close shortly after three o'clock. We subjoin the result.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet. Sales 4,000 bales. Shares were dull. The state of the Bank of England during the week to Saturday last, was not essentially different from the preceding week, but the increase in the bullion is smaller than some might have anticipated. This is easily accounted for by the exports which have still to be made to the Continent, to supply the deficiency of hills, or rather the discredit which prevails. The Treasury balances increase steadily, but private dc positers are still diminishing their banking account ; and, as we hope, because they find better employment for their funds. The other securities being again reduced shows that the Bank, at its minimum of 4 per cent., was un able to get business. The following are the principal changes cemored with the previous week : Notes issued 26,860,060 Increase Rest Decrease ... Public Deposits 5,217,473 Increase Other Deposits 9,082,672 Decrease Seven Day and other Bills Increase 5,944 Government Securities Increase Other Securities 36,130 Decrease Notes Increase Bullion Increase Active circulation Decrease It would appear that credence is not attached to the accounts received professedly from India respecting the massacre at Lahore, but still there is some anxiety to learn the t rut h of the matter, as there may very likely have been a ssass i nations of individuals. The continental new s i s o f muc h t h e same c haracter as for s ome time past, and in respect to trade, perhaps, even worse. Unprecedented sacrifices of property are daily made abroad. The want of free currency for Bills of Exchange causes specie to be used still to a considerable extent in making remittances eitherT?or fro m th e con tinent. This week ther e h ave been shipped from London 3,580 ounces of gold, and 306,000 ounces of silver. The Funds are rather hea vy little doing.

The Transit steamer,lUiwihjiicail SATURDAY,Ieit iiana l bu rg l A. M. on n m ihe 7th inst., arrived here this morning. A letter from Flensburg of the 6th inst. states that an important battle was fought between Gravenstein and Sonderburg. The Danes were driven back to Duppel and Sonderburg. General WRANGEL was himself in the field. The Danes appear to have imagined that he would hold :a grand parade of all the troops in honour of the King of lI.A.NovER's birthday, but instead of which the General was on his march against the enemy. Four conflagrations in the neighbourhood of Duppel and Broaker were risible from this place yesterday. Many wounded have been brought in. Heavy batteries have been thrown up here, to prevent any attack from the enemy's ships. ELECTION COMMITTEE. (THIS DAY.) DUBLIN. The scrutiny into the validity of Mr. :Reynolds' votes was resumed, and the petitioners in the course of the day succeeded in striking off two votes. This will make six votes struck off a majority of 130. The inquiry was adjourned till Monday. RAILWAY COMMITTEES. (THIS DAY.) GROUP No. I.—No RTH ERN CO UNTIES UNION.— Preamble proved and clauses agreed to. GROUP No. 10.--► SCOTTISH CENTRAL. —This im portant case, involving as it does the leasing of the Scottish Central Railway to the Coledonian, Lancaster, and Carlisle and London and North-Western Companies, was brought to a close this afternoon. Mr. Austin, in an able speech, developed the great benefits a united railway managements between the metropolis and Edin burgh world confer upon the public,:but the Committee, nevertheless, after a short deliberation, unanimously de cided that the preamble of the Bill was not proved. The opponents of the measure were the Edinburgh and Glasgow Campany. BO W-STREE T.—(rHIS DAY.) ANOTHER CHARTIST LEADER. Francis Looney, the secretary of the " Davis Club," was placed at the bar before Mr. Henry, on a warrant charging him with delivering a seditious speech on the sth of June, at the Chartist Assembly Rooms, in Dean street, Soho. There was, however, another charge against him—that of delivering a seditious speech on the same day at the Chartist Hall, Webber-street, Blackfriars road, which charge was first entered into. Mr. Hayward, solicitor to the Treasury, attended for the prosecution. After a very lengthened examination, Mr. HENRY committed the prisoner for trial, ordering him to find bail lit two sureties of 1001. each, and enter into his own recognizances for 2001. The second charge on which tho prisoner had been taken was then entered into. It was for delivering a seditious speech, at the Chartist Assembly and Reading Rooms in Dean-street, Soho, when Mr. HENRY said he should commit the prisoner for trial, and would require bail in two sureties of 1001. each, and his own recognizances of 2001 on this case also.—The prisoner was then removed. REJECTION 01? ERNEST JONES'S BAIL. The three persons, of whose names notice had been given yesterday as bail for Mr. Ernest Jones, attended before Mr. Henry immediately on the conclusion of the above case. The first, Mr. John Sewell, was not objected to on the part of the prosecution. The second, a Mr. Bloomfield, a builder in the Mile end road, returned very unsatisfactory answers to the questions put to him by Mr. Hayward. He had paid no rent for six months, and neither income nor assessed taxes for twelve months, as far as he knew. They might have been paid without his knowledge. Ile did not bring his receipts, because he did not receive notice to do so. lie swore that. Sergeant Kemble, of the detective force, proved that he gave Mr. Bloomfield notice.—Bail rejected. The third person was then brought forward. His name was Munal. He said he had leasehold property on which he could raise 250/, but admitted that it was only by the sale of those leases he could meet two bills, now nearly due, for 100/. each. Mr. HENRY rejected this bail also, and observed that one bail could not be admitted singly, and therefore Mr. Sewell was also rejecter'. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.—The keels of three ships were laid down in this dockyard on Thursday,—the Prince of Wales, of 110 guns, on the design of the late Surveyor of the Navy, and the Furious and Argus steam-sloops, on the designs of Mr. Fincham, the mas • ter shipwright of this establishment, which will be pro ceeded with and got off the stocks with all seemly ex pedition. The Prince of Wales is building under new slip No. 3; the Argus adjoining (No. 4); and the Furious under No. 5. The following arc their principal dimensions, as ordered:— The Prince of Wales—Length, 204 feet; length of keel for tonnage, 155 feet 11 inches; breadth extreme, 59 feet 2 inches ; depth in hold, 23 feet 9 inches ; bur den, 3,033 tons. The Argus—Length, 190 feet ; length of keel for tonnage, 16S feet 4 inches ; breadth extreme, 33 feet ; breadth for tonnage, 32 feet 10 inches; breadth moulded, 32 feet 4 inches; depth in hold, 20 feet 11 inches; bur den, 987 tons; propulsion paddles, 300 horse-power. The Furious—Length, 206 feet; length of keel for tonnage,extreme, 181 feet 7 inches ; breadth 36 feet 6 inches; breadth for tonnage, 36 feet; breadth moulded, 35 feet 4 inches; depth in hold, 22 feet 10 inches; bur den, 1,286 tons; propulsion paddles, 400 horse-power. The fact of a three-decker being commenced under the authority of a new Surveyorship of the Navy, and with the combined sanction and dictum of the Admi ralty, upon precisely similar lines to the Queen and Royal Frederick, looks very significant either of the in efficiency of the rival builders to Sir W. Symonds, or of the superiority of that officer's principle;—we leave the judges to determine. A shocking accident occurred this morning to two men, named William piper and George Esther, ship wrights, who were employed on a stage, taking off the cap of the bowsprit of the Medusa steam-vessel, Lieu tenant-Commander Bathurst, in dock for refit. The stage on which these men were working gave way with the superincumbent weight of the cap and themselves, and they were precipitated on to the " broad altar" of the dock, a distance of 16 or 18 feet. On this broad altar were lying two iron hawse pipes, on which they fell. Piper sustained a severe concussion of the brain, and the other was also:frightfully injured. Piper lingers in Hasler Hospital in a precarious state. The Helena, 16, waa ordered to be commissioned this day by Commander G. W. Smith (1841); and the Frolic, 16, was commissioned this morning by Com mander N. Vansittart (1847). Lord Auckland, Lord John Russell, and a distin guished party, are expected here on Monday to dint- on board the St. Vincent, at Spithead, with Rear-Admiral Sir Charles Napier. Rear-Admiral Dundas is expected here from the Admiralty to-morrow. Commander Crispen embarked his Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge in the Fairy yacht, at half past six o'clock last evening, and conveyed him to Osborne, to visit her Majesty. Commissioned Ships in Port—The Victory, Illustri ous, Hastings, Vindictive, Excellent, Victoria and Albert, Blenheim, Helena, Frolic, and Rolla; Merlin, Medusa, Fairy, Fire Queen, Echo, Lightning and Bee steamers; Portsmouth yacht, Fanny, and Mercury tenders. At Spithead—The St. Vincent, Howe, Prince Regent, Powerful, and Amphion. In Dock—The Ajax, Pembroke, Orestes, and Medusa. In the Basin—The Cormorant, Growler, Malabar, and Fire Queen. In the Steam Basin—The Jackal. Wind, S.W., light breeze and fine weather. BRISTOL SUGAR MARIENT, JUNE 9.—The trans actions of the week are unimportant, and prices must be quoted Is. lower. The refined market continues firm. in rum there is very little doing.—Bristol Mercury. COURT-MARTIAL..— On Wednesday morning the members forming a court-martial, assembled on board the Ocean, at Sheerness, for the trial of Edward Gul liver, a private of the 17th company of the Royal Ma rines. The prisoner was from her Majesty's ship Gan ges , 80 guns, and was arraigned :- 1. Kr being drunk on board the said ship on the 22d of May last. 2. For in subordination, using disgusting language to First Lieu tenant E. Nepran, of the Royal Marines, threatening to sput that officer's eye, and removing his jacket from his back for that purpose; and 3d, for having on board the said ship, on the 26th of May, broke loose from his irons when he was confined, and seizing a bayonet, said that if he was brought to the yard-arm he would take the life of some one in the ship, and would 'not leave the ship until he had done for him; to which charges the prisoner pleaded not guilty. Captain Ilenry Smith, of the Ganges, was the prosecutor. The Court found the prisoner guilty on each charge, and sentenced him to twelve months' hard labour in the county goal at Maid stone, to be mulcted of all pay due to him, and to for feit all his previous service, which is fourteen years. The prisoner wore on his breast a silTer medal for China.

GRAVMSEND RAILWAY.--A tunnel through the road, from Newcross to Deptford, is now excavated, and a traject or passage to join the Greenwich branch is making with the soil from the cuttings. Considerable difficulty seems to occur in working the line through the hill on the Amersham property, south of the main road. The land springs flow at the depth of 17 or 18 feet, faster than the engineers had expected, consequently the working of the cutting is delayed. It is nec essary to pump away the water to prevent the inundation of the tunnel and low parts of the line. The spectators, who are not geologists or engineers, consider the great quan tity of water on the soil of this high ground a remark able occurrence, becau'e the adjoining land north of the road is low enough to drain the upper parts. It no doubt had that effect to a certain extent, as the fields in the valley have,long produced the finest vegetables brought to the London markets. This-arduous work will, it is said, occupy at least two years. THE CHARTIST DISTURBANCES.—Yesterday, the tradesmen, supported by noblemen and gentlemen, in habitants of St. George's, Hanover-square, and its neighbourhood, feeling deeply the injurious effects pro duced on all classes of her Majesty's subjects by the continued illegal meetings and processions of largo bodies of people, resolved to memorialise her Majesty to cause the laws to be put in force against the seditious leaders and abettors of such meetings and processions, and to pray that her Majesty will command the Exe cutive to use the most stringent measures for the imme diate suppression of the same.

Black Debentures — — 4 l United Mexican THE TRIANGULAR SURVEY or THB METROPOLIS AND ENVIRONS.—About half-past four o'clock yesterday afternoon, the inhabitants of the metropolis who could command a view of the cross of St. Paul's beheld an in cident which has occurred but once before sines the ca thedral of the metropolis has been built—that when the last plank or pole of a scaffold, or the coping brick or stone of a building has been fixed, the waving of • handkerchief to show to those below that the project has been accomplished. During the past three weeks the public has been aware that one of the sergeants, two corporals, and eight labourers, belonging to the Sap pers and Miners, have been daily engaged in erecting, from what is termed the Golden Gallery, a scaffold, the platform of which, it was understood, was to rest on the top of the cross. In the course of the progress of the scaffold, the utmost astonishment has been exhibited in seeing the men engaged in such a hazardous work, clinging round the scaffolding poles , tying the bracenners, supporters, &c., and even in that perilous position sawing off the end of a small pole, at the same time raising a scaffold something like a spider's web. Without entering into a detailed account of the building of a scaffold which has elicited the admi ration of all practical men, at the above hour the last plank, forming the flooring on which the observatory for the survey is to be built was fixed, amidst the buzzes of the few employed; around this a strong railing, about five feet high, is fixed—the area being, from point to point, about 14 feet, in the centre of which is to be raised the shed or building from which the survey is to be made. In the recollection of a comparative few it will be remembered that in the year 1825 a scaffold was raised for the purpose of regilding the ball and cross, and on that occasion. Mr. Horner—who subsequently made a bird's-eye view of London, which was afterwards exhibited—very narrowly escaped with his life, as during the early part of his aerial habitation, his resi dence was blown over, and the next morning he watt found by the workmen in a most prostrate position. On the same occasion a plank was blown into Poynter's alley, which broke one of the large paving -stones, and penetrated some six or eight inches deep in the earth As the present survey is to be a complete one, the scaf fold is so bound together, that it will be perfect for the next seven years, without wanting repairs. CHANGE RINGING.-011 Monday last, the sth in stant, ten members of the Ancient College Society ascended the tower of St. James's Church, Bermondsey, and rang a true and excellent peal of treble bob royal, in the Kent variation, consisting of 5,320 changes, which was performed in three hours and 40 minutes, end con ducted by Mr. George Monday. INSTINCT IN BIRDS.-011 Tuesday, two boys, re siding at Great Harwood, robbed a lark's nest of the young ones, which was nearly fledged. They removed them to their residence, about halt a mile distant; yet on the following morning the old birds found their way through a hole in the broken window, and when dis covered were engaged in feeding their young brood, which were primers in the ceges—Blackeurn 'Standard. - 7!‘ •••••• I 4% 10%% PA 15 i 5 ”i ...., 30 1 4 11!i 8 lk - 4IA
