R EPORT of the BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH, New-road, London. PEOPLE OF ENGLAND,—It is with much satisfaction that we have to announce the steady progress of the Ilygeian system of medicine throughout the world. From every quarter we continue to receive the most satisfactory reports, proving the great truth first promul gated by James Morison, the Hygeist, that all diseases to which the human frame is liable proceed from impurities in the blood, and can therefore only be eradicated by proper vegetable purgatives. This theory, we need not say, interferes seriously with the profits of the medical profession, who irons time immemorial have endeavoured to promulgate the idea that diseases proceed from various causes; that they were the only parties to judge of those causes; and that the most deadly and subtle poisons were, in certain cases, necessary to the cure of diseases. Now we are certain, from the experience of many years, that such poisons are not, necessary to the cure of any disease; or how is it, if they are necessary, that all diseases have given way to the influence of the Vegetable Universal Medicine? We contend that the whole of these poisons should at once and for ever be banished from the pharmacopoeia and the chemist's shop, and only used for the purpose of destroying—not of saving. For many years the whole body of Hygeists have been actively employed in getting up petitions to the Legislature against these poisons most falsely held out as medicines, and one of these, signed by upwards of 20,000 persons, was presented in 1847 to the Ilouse of Commons by Sir Benjamin Hall, Bart., the Member for Maryle bone. Hygelsts do conceive that if the poisons, such as arsenic, prussic acid, strychnine, &e. &c, be necessary to the cure of dis eases, they must be in the wrong as regards their theory and prac tice; and if such be proved to be the fact, they are ready to retire from the field of contest; but they feel certain that such engines of death can never do good, under any circumstances, how ever admistered, and therefore they protest against their use as medicines. As to medical men holding out these poisons as medi eines, that is net at all conclusive as to their utility, because such a scheme throws at once the healing art into their hands, and prevents all improvement. Well would it have been for mankind if the deadly chemicals had never been introduced as medicines. Why they were introduced let doctors answer. Hygeists have nothing to do with them, and on that account their medicines are not sold in chemists' shops, being most desirous to keep a marked distinction be tween what they consider an agent of life and one of death. When we look at the chemist's shop and its contents, we cannot but reflect on the amount of misery and crime to which it has been accessory; such shops should be called " poison shops," not shops where life is supposed to exist. Hygeists admit that they do not understand the administra tion of such poisons, which are sufficient a killmstiople ta w ve h g e e ng b i l v e en pu h rg i g a r t a iv in e s , or drops ; but they under stand wh y which cleanses the human machine, should cure—this is the differ. ence between them and doctors. It is now upwards of twenty years since a single individual, James Morison, the Hygeist, backed by some of the Hygeian agents, esta blished the British College of Health, the object of which was to pro mulgate the Hygelan System of Medicine. Everything connected with that establishment has been carried on above board and in the world's light. Much opposition it had to encounter from needy me dical men, who saw their trade falling off, prosecutions were had se ll course to, but the light of truth has prevailed, and at this not d od ay ly tt l e British College of Healt h stands higher than ever it did, England but throughout the world. We are, fellow countrynsen, your obedient servants , THE MEMBERS OF TIIE BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH.

C• ' d i sappo i n ted affection, or a di ffi- E s L eq i u ß en A ce e • Y e dr: i ne S h i n n a g t iloenn. ess is not always the c on. culty in meeting with a fit helpmate. T housands of the unmarried would with joy embrace the sacred cond itions of Matrimony, they feel themselves equal to its obligations; and the chequered page of life reveals innumerable instances where, under that blighting consciousness, man has permitted the most ardent affec tion to consume him to the grave, rather than consign its object to that life of immitigable anguish and fettered solitariness into which his affianced would he plunged if he married. Some are, however, wilful enough_ to gain the affections of the other sex under these circumstances; and, though not so villanous as to proceed to the altar, will make such excuses for procrastination as contribute to his selfish desire of exclusively enjoying her society, by precluding her from accepting other offers. There is scarcely a street where this history is not enacted ; and yet with the exercise of common foresight, its frequency might be so lessened as to ren der an instance rare throughout tke entire kingdom. The disqualifications for Marriage have more than one primary source ; the chief of which is Impuissance, arising from four causes :—namely, Natural Deficiency ; the Prostration produced by Early Habits ; the Weakening effects of Later Excesses ; and Nervousness of Tempera ment ; the next sources of importance are hereditary and acquired disease ; and, lastly, men are prevented from marrying by the effects of disease—which, when 111-cured, leaves traces that forbid all im pulse towards wedlock. In each of these instances it is unhappily too common for the sufferer to consider his case beyond remedy, and he fails to consult even his own medical attendant. Such will did all obstacles removed by reference to a valuable Manual on Nervous Debility and Generative diseases, the thirty-seventh thousand of w hich has just been published by its Authors, J. L. CURTIS and CO., Consulting Surgeons, 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London, entitled MANHOOD ; the Causes of its Premature Decline, with Plain Directions for Perfect Restoration, &c., &c. This eminent Work, which is forwarded by W. Strange, Boookseller, 21, fatnernoster row, London, post-paid, in a sealed envelope for 2s.

REVIII7 OF THE WIRE. La'Mert en the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There are scenes iu the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him I In the book before as such a monitor is to be found,, calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without Impairing ens idea that can vitiate a mind not al ready tittered by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of philosophy' and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By un taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing In these pages is likely to prove ;is strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingddrn Magazine.

Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em- Wtter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea tf caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un zonaprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, end broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness end social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set dement. Honour and justice demand that health should ferns salters in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er seglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

SUDDEN DEA.TII.—An inquest was held yesterday at the Rose and Crown, Old Broad-street, City, on the body of Mr. William Shackall, aged fifty-one, for many years clerk to Messrs. Oakes and Dalgains, merchants, of Austin-friars. Mr. John Shackelton said he asked the deceased when he entered the house that morning to get the invoice ready for the overland mail. Deceased was going for it, but while shutting the door after him he fell on the floor, exclaiming, " Oh my God l" and died instantly. Witness had never heard him make the slightest complaint of illness, but observed him to be over assiduous at his business, and too abstemious, as he never took anything from the time he came in the morning until he left in the evening, witness advised him to take more rest and sustenance. Verdict, " Natural death." TS= MISSING PLANET.—PARIS, SEPT. 15—The only sittings of the Academy of late in which there was anything worth recording, and even this was not of a practical character, were those of the 29th nit. and the 11th instant. On the former day M. Ba binet made a communication respecting the planet Neptune, which has been generally called M. Leverrier's planet, the discovery of it having, as it was said, been made by him from theoretical deductions, which astonished and delighted the scientific public. What M. Leverrier had inferred from the action on other planets of some body which ought to exist was verified, at least so it was thought at the time, by actual vision. Neptune was actually . seen by other astronomers, and the honour of the theorist obtained ad ditional lustre. But it appears from the communication of M. Babinet that this is not the planet of M. Lever rier. He had placed his planet at a little distance from the sun equal to 36 times the limit of the terrestrial orbit; Neptune revolves at a distance equal to 30 times of these limits, which makes a difference of nearly 200,000,000 of leagues. M. Leverrier had as signed to his planet a body equal to 38 times that of the d Leverrier the had su n t s o ta stated take theplae place in revolution 2l earth. Neptune has only one-third of this volume. M. r round his planet performs its revolution in 164 yeoafrs. years. Thus, then, Neptune is not M. Leverrier's planet, and all his theory as regards that planet falls to the ground. M. Leverrier may find another planet, but it will not answer the calculations which he had made for Neptune. In the sitting of the 14th M. Leverrier noticed the com munication of M. Babinet and to a great extent ad mitted his own error. He complains, indeed, that much of what he said was taken in too absolute a sense, but he evinces much more candour than might have been expected from a disappointed explorer. M. Leverrier may console himself with the reflection that if he has not been so successful as he thought be had been, others might have been equally unsuccessful, and, as he has still before him an immense field for the exercise of observation and calculation, we may hope that he will soon make some discovery which will remove the vexa tion of his present disappointment. [ADvienTisEmErsT.]—The most fearful cases of Dropsy curable by the use of llolloway's Pills.—The singular efficacy of Holloway's Pills in the numerous cures effected by their use, in some of the most obstinate cases of Dropsy, is truly astonishing. This invaluable medicine acts with such peculiar effect upon the system, that the fluids arising from this direful disease are im perceptibly evacuated and wholly prevented frOM any further accumulation. The distressing symptoms which accompany the complaint being thus dispersed, the suf ferer regains buoyancy of spirits and a completely reno vated constitution. Females of a particular period of life should have recourse to these admirable Pills, which are sold,by all, Druggists, and at Professor Holloway's Esta blishment, 244, Strand, London. T#E BOATLOGNE FETES. BOULOGNE, TUESDAY MORNING.—There W2B a continual succession of amusements here from morn-- ing until the close of night ye s t er d a y, and all the varied arrangements for giving the fullest effect to the festival were carried into effect in the most satis factory manner. Of course, in France one could ex pect no less, for here all fetes of this kind, when once determined on, excite a perfect furor among the population, and every one cordially assists in giving the utmost eclat to them. Boulogne, since the first announcement of the fetes, has been visited by vast numbers of the English, who have come here by the packet-boats to amuse themselves at this gay festival. Within the last two days alone the arrivals from England have not fallen much short of 1,000 persons. About noon on Monday an excursion boat from Ramsgate came into the port excessively crowded with passengers, and as it rounded the pier-head its arrival was welcomed with hearty cheers by a number of persons assembled on the pier. In the morning of yesterday the National Guards belonging to Boulogne, and the other cities in France from which detachments had been sent, after muster ing in the square in front of the Hotel de Ville, marched down towards the sands. On reaching the quay they were drawn up in double line, which, so great was the number of men present, extended the whole length of the quay from the beginning of the pier to the market-place. The National Guards of Boulogne occupied the head of the line, and bore with them the drapeau presented to them by the National Guards of Paris, which was remarkable for its elegance and richness. The whole body of Na tional Guards here assembled wern„tben inspected by the mayor and the rest 'of the Mudoipsd authorities, who, as they passed along the line, were saluted with acclamations of " Vive la Republique," " Vive la Libertsi," &c. When the inspection terminated, the whole body marched back again to the Hotel de Vile, where they disbanded for the day ; for, by an alteration in the programme, the firing at targets for prizes was postponed from yesterday, for which it was originally fixed, until to-day. There were, however, plenty of games and gambols going on upon the sands, the long flat shore here affording a convenient field for such sports, and the jumping in sacks, donkey-races, &c., afforded continuous merriment and fun to the assembled spec tators. At the same time the regatta was proceeding in the offing, and the movements of the sailing vessels and rowing. boats presented a pleasing sight to those who beheld the match from the pier or the cliffs. A slight accident tended for a moment to check the general satisfaction, but fortunately no fatal conse quences resulted from it. A fishing-smack run down a four-oared cutter at the entrance of the harbour; but, though the boat was capsized, no other incon venience, happily, ensued to the rowers beyond a sound ducking. The decorations in the town are on so extensive a scale that they were scarcely completed last night ; indeed, additions seem to be continually making to them. Although Sunday was a period of much gaiety here, yesterday was really the commencement of the fetes, and in the evening the whole of the streets were tastefully and prettily illuminated with paper lanterns of the different tints which form the national colour, and the effect produced by the appearance of long alleys of these fanciful and beautiful lights was really quite enchanting. Booths and platforms, covered with evergreens, were erected in several of the most prominent places, and instrumental bands stationed in them executed during the night a variety of music to the great delight of the promenaders, who crowded all the thoroughfares. At the theatre there was a perform ance gratis in the afternoon, and after an interval of some hours a ball took place in the same building, but the admission to both these amusements was not upon the same easy terms, a few francs being neces sary to obtain the entrée to the ball. A concert, at which Madame Thillon constituted one of the great attractions, was given in another part of the town ; and there was again a public ball at the Tintelleries. The directors of the Boulogne and Amiens Rail way took the present opportunity of inviting the directors of the South Eastern line to a friendly din ner. As acts of " fraternization" are so common now a days in France, we trust that this may be reckoned one of them, and the preliminary to a mote satisfactory understanding between the two com panies. This morning the National Guards have been mus tered by beat of drum, and have marched down to the sands to fire at the targets. The English people will now have an opportunity of beholding the National Guard of France in uni form, without the necessity of a trip to this country for the purpose. Several left yesterday and to. day in full uniform, for London, Dover, and Folkestone. —Times. THE PRINCE DE JOINVILLE ON THE POLICY OF LOUIS PHILIPPE. The Akbar of Algiers, of the 12th instant, pub - I lisbes a letter from the Prince de Joinville to the Duke de Nemours, dated from on board the Souve rain at Spezzia, 7th November, 1847. The letter is thus introduced by the Akbar : " Every one here knows that the Prince de Joinville was sent to Algiers a month previous to Feb. 4, on ac- I count of his active opposition to the policy which had then for some time been adopted by the Cabinet of M. Guizet. He under no circumstances suppressed the expression of his repulsive feelings towards a policy the dangers of which he could not conceal from himself. On arriving in Algiers, his first words were—' They are leading us to a revolution.' The subjoined letter, which has never been published, was found on February the 24th, in the Tuileries, and a copy of it was taken by the person who has communicated it to us. In it will be found the lively and free expression of the sentiments above spoken of." The letter is as follows : , 6 My dear Tan,—l write to you, because m y mind is disturbed by the events which I see accumulat in g around us from every side. I begin to be seriously alarmed, and at such moments I love to gossip with those in whom I have confidence. The death of Bresson is a great blow to me (m'a ate funeste ), and I think it has had the same effect upon ypu. I lay aside the sad im pression it has made at Naples, where the laws on suicide are so secure; but what affects me is the seeking out the causes of his misfortune. Bresson was not ill; he executed his design with all the coolness of a re solute man. I have from Naples letters written by De Montessuy and others, which leave me scarcely, any doubts. He was irritated against the King, and had used at Florence strange language_ respecting him. The King is inflexible, and will no longer listen to any advice ; in fact, his will must predominate over all. People will not fail to repeat, and will enlarge upon what I consider as dangerous—viz., the action which he (le pert) exercises over; everything. This inflexible action, when a statesman compromised with us cannot vanquish it, leaves no other resource than sui cide. It appears to me to be difficult this year for the Chamber not to turn its debates upon this anormal state of things, which has oblite rated the constitutional fiction, and brought the King forward as a party in all questions. There are no more ministers ; their responsibility is null ; everything emanates from the King. The King is arrived at an age when observations from others are no more admitted. He is habituated to govern, and loves to show that it is Its !*ho dqes Aevezin. -His immense etperiencte, his courage, and other great qualities, make him affront danger with audacity; but the danger nevertheless exists. This false position will, I believe, b e t hi s year prominently discussed. It will be said that the constitutional Government was established par ticularly to avoid the alternative of seeing the . throne occupied by a man who is too old, or by one who is too young ; to calm the too great ardour of Bove reigns, or to supply that which is wanting in them. I n the present case we have need of two things, but both of them are wanting. Our condition at home is not a good one ; the (state of our finances, after a p eace of seventeen years, is not brilliant. Abroad, where we might have found some of those gratifications so dear to our country, and by which its attention is turned from more serious evils, we do not shine much more. The accession of Lord Palmerston, by awakening the impassioned mistrust of the King, has made us under take the Spanish campaign, and invested us with a de plorable reputation for bad faith. Separated from England at the moment when the events of Italy hap period, we have been unable to take that ac tive part in them which would have flattered our country, an d have been in accord with the principles we should never have abandoned, because it was through them that we be came what we are. We have not dared to turn our hand against Austria, from fear of seeing England re constitute the Holy Allanc e . We come before the Chambers with a d e plorable state of things abroad, and with one not much better at home. All this is the work of the King alone. The result of the old age of a king who will govern, but whose powers are too weak for him to come to any virile resolution. The worst is that I cannot discover any remedy. What will I be said and done at home when our sad financial situa tion is exposed? what can be done abroad to raise our position and enable us to follow a line of conduct in conformity with the wish of the country? It is cer tainly not by making an Austro-French intervention in Switzerland that we shall gain what the campaigns of 1823 won for the Restoration. I bad hoped that Italy would afford us that derivative, that change of which we had so much need; but it is now too late, the battle is lost ! Here we eau do nothing without the concur rence of the English, and every day, by suffering them to gain ground, we are per force thrown into the op =posite camp. We can now do nothing more than ro ws, '_bee.ause) by. remarUliig4e - iliall - be foreiblY Ted IS make common cause with the retrograde party, which TT N, SEPTEMBER 20, 1848.

All this is caused by the King, the King alone, who has perverted (fausse) our constitutional institu tions. I find all this very serious, because I fear the questions of ministers and portfolios will be set aside, and that is a great danger when ) in preesence of a bad situation, questions of principle are set up. If, in deed, we could find any event, any affair to conduct vi gorously, and which by its success would rally our party a little, there would still be a chance of gaining the battle; but I see nothing. You will excuse this epistle, for we require to feel our way. Forgive me for what I say of the father (du pere); it is to you alone that I say it; you know my respect and affection for him; but it is impossible for me not to look into the future, and it rightens me a little." MASSACRE OF MISSIONARIES. The Journal du Havre has the following ;—" The journals from the Sandwich Islands bring numerous and gloomy details of the massacre of an entire com munity of Protestant missionaries settled in Colum bia. For more than ten years this colony composed of members distinguished in the society of American missions, for their zeal, laboured under the direction of the Rev. Dr. Whiteman, for the intellectual and religious culture of the Cayouses, one of the most ferocious and most ignorant o f the Indian tribes of the river Columbia. Many times already had threats of a disquieting nature proved the ingratitude of this people towards their benefactors, but still hoping that a higher degree of instruction would gradually do away with the perverse instincts of savage life, the Rev. Mr. Whiteman had peaceably continued his work, neglecting even to take such precautions as or dinary prudence dictates in the midst of actual and permanent danger. Meanwhile, dysentery broke out at Waiilatpou, the chief place of the tribe, where, among the Indians only, it made rapid and cruel ravages. In his capacity of physician, Dr. Whiteman was surrounded by a crowd of sick, who implored him to employ for their cure the supernatural power, with which they said he was endowed. The malady was at its highest point of intensity, almost all the sick died, and the ICayouses imagined that, instead of remedies, the mis , sionaries administered poison to them, in order to destroy the tribe and gain possession of its territory. Some, convinced of the integrity of the pastor, com batted this horrible suspicion, and proposed to test the effect of the medicaments upon three persons, two of whom should be ill and one in perfect health ; but all three, as if by a fatality, were carried off by the dis ease, and the tribe then resolved, in a moment of general rage, to put all the missionaries to death. At two hours after mid day the Indians arrived, one by one, at the mission, with an air of calm, and under various pretexts, having arms concealed under their cloaks. Dr. Whiteman was employed in teach ing the children, while his colleagues were occupied, some in study and others in domestic cares. The ladies were assembled in a large room, where they taught the native girls to read and sew. W hen the Indians found themselves in sufficient numbers to exe cute their atrocious project, they suddenly surrounded all parts of the establishment, and throwing them selves upon their unfortunate victims, some with hatchets, others with pistols, soon turned the house of God into a horrible slaughter house. The Doctor received a ball in the centre of his breast and the blow of a hatchet on the head; he had just strength enough to drag himself to a sofa when he breathed his last. His wife, Mrs. Whiteman, was literally cut to pieces. The other ladies and their children were about to undergo a similar fate, when a voice from among the Indians cried, " Pity the innocent," and they were spared. It has since become known that the fury of this savage horde was increased by the avowal of a Mr. Rogers, whose life the Cayouses promised to spare, if he confessed the treason of his superior. Ter rified at the prospect of death, this missionary re counted that it was true that Dr. Whiteman wished to poison them, in order to give their territory to the Americans ; that his intention, distinctly expressed in a council, was to give them a powerful dose of poison, which would carry them all off at once ; but that, by the advice of Mr. Spalding, it had been resolved to poison them gra dually, and that this was the cause of the mortality. After this melancholy evidence Mr. Rogers was allowed to go free ; but an Indian, in the confusion seeing him in a corner, discharged his gun at him, his death being thus caused by the very act which had aggravated the fate of his companions. Another mis sionary made similar avowals, adding that Mrs. Whiteman was in concert with her husband, which was doubtless the reason of the pity granted to the other females not being extended to her. The Cay °uses asked this man if he were for their party or for the Americans ? He replied that he was for the In dians, and that he hated his companions ' • upon which the Indians asked him to prove the truth of his words by killing the son of his chief, who was before them at the moment, at the same time putting a loaded pistol into his hand. The missionary hesitated a mo ment, pulled the trigger, and the young Whiteman fell dead at his feet. Of the fifteen members of the mission who were left extended in their blood, four still lived after the carnage; these the Indians had struck less cruelly, believing them to be less guilty. As soon as Mr. Abernethy, governor of Columbia, received intelligence of this dreadful event, he sent a report to the legislative council of Oregon, and ob• tamed immediate authority to levy 500 volunteers, to punish the tribe of the Cayouses. In a few days from the departure of the above intelligence, Captain Lee was to put himself at the head of-this expedition, and doubtless ample vengeance would be taken at Wail latpou. But vengeance is less an object than to prevent this sad example being followed by the neighbouring tribes among whom the Society of Mis sionaries have founded numerous establishments without gaining the sympathy of the people, or bringing about a reform sufficiently deep-rooted to prevent cause for continually fearing a return to the ferocity of savage life. We are assured that the Hudson's Bay Company has, on its part, sent a con siderable reinforcement to Walla-Walla. The ques tion is, whether they will arrive soon enough to prevent the recurrence of such a misfortune. - - TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—ln your valuable paper of the 14th, you put a question respecting railway signals, which appears to me not of very difficult solution. I think the easiest mode for passengers in a railway carriage, to communicate with the guard, would be through a speaking tube ; a mouthpiece attached to an elastic tube should be fixed in each carriage, and a cer tain number attached to it; the tube should be connected between one carriage and another in the same manner as the feed-pipe of an engine is to the tender, and be continuous to the guard's seat. Any person in the train wishing to communicate with him has only to call the number on the mouth-piece, and speak what he has to say; the guard will then know whether it is necessary to come to the carriage where the person is, or to com municate with the engine -driver; which he can do by striking a bell or a steel bar, which would give a certain note corresponding with a similay pne, on. the tender. There l shOuld be several bais, each giving different sounds, and - on each should be engraved what is intended for the engine-driver to observe, when he hears a cer tain bar struck by the guard. It appears to me that by this means would be attained the desideratum you men tion. Q. E. D. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD, SEPT. 18.—The Rev.

COURT CITUCULAIt. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge left the seat of the Duke of Devonshire, Chatsworth, Der byshire, yesterday, for his residence at Ke w. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, left Chatsworth yesterday, for Heaton Hall, Lanca shire, to honour the Earl and Countess of Wilton with a visit. HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND. (From the Court Circular.) BALMORAL, SUNDAY.—Her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert attendcd Divine service this morning at the parish church at Cratchie. Her Majesty was attended by the Countess of Gainsborough, Viscountess Canning, Lord John Rus-. sell, and the rest of the royal suite. THE QUEEN ON LOCHNAGAR. SaTußnay.—Every act of Our gracious Sovereign among us here on Deeside in creases, if possible, the feeling of [Admiration with which she is universally regarded. The Queen out strips most "ladies nursed in pomp and pleasure" in activity, energy, and undaunted spirit, while queenly dignity and womanly grace characteriSe every act of her existence. Her Majesty and Prince Albert, ac companied by some ladles and gentlemen in waiting, set out this morning at nine o'clock to visit the summit of Lochnagar. Much. as lly.ron's. beautiful poem has done to surround this mountain with a halo of romance to such as never climbed its " Wastes that dern and dreary lie"— to those who love the grandeur of nature and stand upon the cloven summit, the poetic picture is forgotten in the solemn wonders of the reality. Its great height, being the highest of the more easterly of the Gram pians, and the magnificent prospect that is unfolded to the spectator, make it well worthy a visit; but the tremendous sublimity of the hill itself presents a scene that fills the mind with such awe and astonish ment, that for a time everything else is forgotten, and we gaze upon the rugged precipices as if they were the ruins of a depopulated world. Iler Majesty chose a route seldom taken by visi tors--" through the pine-covered glade," in the valley of the Garwald, a small stream that takes its rise at the top of the mountain and falls into the Dee about half a mile below Craig Clunie. The route, though rather circuitous, is the most pleasant that can be chosen. In the course of the stream arc two rapids, in which the fall is very considerable, especially in the upper ; the little brawling torrent leaps from ledge to ledge down a rocky declivity overhung by birches and pines, where a scene of much natural beauty has been enhanced by the efforts of art under the guidance of an excellent taste. On a promon tory that faces the waterfall a seat has been erected, from which a fine view is obtained of the fairy imita tion of the grandeur of a mountain torrent invading the umbrageous solitudes of the forest, and, from its foaming basin, dancing downwards over little cas cades, and twirling eddies here and there at the foot of the rock, it makes, as one might imagine— " Hyblean murmurs of poetic thought," all the way till it bounds in another miniature cata ract from rock to rock down the valley. Up the burn side the scene continues to be very -pleasant, but the trees on the rocks became gradually fewer and less verdant. The cran and black-berries give place to the heather, and the view opens up of the wild glen between Locknagar and Bullock Bowie. The royal party were accompanied by two guides and the Princes game-keepers. Her Majesty and the ladies rode upon Highland ponies, which can be with little difficulty taken, and by a circuitous way ridden to the top of the mountain. On the summit the scene is one of the sternest sublimity. On every side, except towards the east, the prospect is bounded by mountains that raise their heads to Heaven, like the fortification of the Titans, some bearing the -eternal snow on their hoary heads, while down the valley many a sweet spot, em bosomed in woods and shadowed by hills, relieves the gloomy splendour of the vast prospect. At times the white fog is to be seen creeping over the tops of the mountains and shrouding them gradually from the view till the spectator himself becomes enveloped in a cold mist on the cloud-capt precipice. Such was, we regret to say, the fortune of her Majesty while she stood surveying " the steep frowning glories" that meet the eye on the very sum mit—the Royal party were overtaken by a storm, and surrounded in a cloud of mist, so that no individual was visible to another at a few feet distance, and the consequence was, that they were entirely drenched with wet. They were necessarily obliged to content themselves with the scene immediately at their feet ; but that of itself is sufficient recompense for a longer and even more laborious journey on two sides of the hill. The summit rises in a sheer precipice of 1,300 feet from dark gloomy gorges, in which are outspread black melancholy lochs, so deep that popular opinion holds them to be fathomless and full of muddy " gar" that characterises their denomination of the moun tain. One would scarcely be astonished, on gazing upon them, to see the fabled Prometheus chained to some rugged ledge, with the eagle of Jupiter gnaw ing at the Titan's vitals. While standing here, " Among the grisly cliffs that guard The infant rills of Highland Dee," the feeling of the spectator is no holiday feeling; it is no place for an everyday tourist, who sets out a picknicking amid its wild magnificence. The voice less solitude pours solemnity and adoration into the heart, and he alone can feel its influence who can say with Coleridge— " And when I rose I found myself in prayer." On such a place mighty truths are told, and it is on such a place that the German transcendentalist should stand when revolving the beautiful mysticism of his pantheistical creed, for there he will learn the difference between God and Nature—between the simple grandeur of revelation and Christianity, and the philosophical dream of a poetical mythologian— " Man loves amid the vallies, But he prays upon the hills." Such a spot was worthy of a visit from our true-hearted Queen ; and we would fain indulge a hope that, when far away from Deeside and the loyal hearted people whose love she has exalted to a chivalrous devotion, like that of the days of old, she will at times recall with a pleasant memory " The crags that are wild and majestic: The steep frowning glories of dark Lochnagar." The royal party arrived from Lochnagar about four o'clock. Lord John Russell is at present on a visit to her Majesty; he arrived last night from Perth, and drove out this afternoon.—Post. POSTAGE ON NEWSPAPERS.—Odthe 4th inst. an Act came into operation for rendering certain newspapers published in the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man liable to postage (11th and 12th Victoria, chap. 117).

CITY CommssioN of SEWEtis. Yesterday, a J Court of Commiesion.of Sewers for the city Of London was held in their Council Chamber, GUildhall.—Mr. Deputy Corney in the chairv - - Mr: Deputy Bridge called the attention of the Court to the present system of using deodorising fluids in the sewers. Ile believed though 'these flaidS caused a temporary cessation of the stench, yet that in a few weeks they created a much more offensive smell than before existed. lie recom mended that a committee should be appointed to con sider the practicability of carrying off the cffensive effluvium by means of shafts or chimneys. Mr. Alder man Laurence-admitted that the deodorising fluids de served the censure which the worthy Deputy had passed upon them, but he was strom:ly opposed to the erection of chimneys throughout the City. No doubt the sewers must be well cleansed, but 'he should recommend a good system of flushing, such as had been adopted by the Metropolitan Commissioners.—(Hear, hear.)—Mr. Con dar moved the appointment of a committee to consider whether some additional remuneration should not be given to Messrs. Paw, Hayward, and Tichner, for the greatly increased labour .which those gentlemen had undertaken in procuring the passing of the new Bill through Parliament. The Hon.

DUBLIN, SEPT. 19.—Yesterday evening, ab( , o'clock, the Governor of Kilmainham Gaol re( ' orders to have the State prisoners in readiness f parture at half-past eight o'clock by the Southern and Western Railway. The order was at once communicated to the prisoners, who proceeded toneck up their luggage, &e. Soon after the arri va l eof last train (quarter-past eight o'clock) f rom Lim rick, considerable bustle prevailed at the ter mind; a carriage and eight horses were put into the _luggage vans, and,. aa special engine with three car :rives (two of them first class); -was placed on the down line. About two hundred constabulary with fixed bayonets were placed in order outside the ter minus door and along the platform inside. At a quarter past nine o'clock, one of the prison vans drove up, when the police were ordered to " stand to their arms." A number of the metropolitan police were stationed about the place—each man having a loaded pistol capped and cocked. Some cars drove up at the time, and one of the drivers called out for a porter to take in " Smith O'Brien's luggage." Several trunks (the luggage of all the prisoners) were handed in, and in a few . moments the van was opened, and • the first prisoner, T. B. M'Manus, Esq., was escorted by several policemen into one of the carriages. Smith O'Brien came next. He had a cloak thrown loosely over his shoulders, looked very well, and walked with his usual firm step. On alighting from the van he took off his hat, and remained uncovered until the train departed. Mr. T. F. Meagher was the next prisoner, he was recognized by one or two persons present, and shook them by the hand. He held his cloak on his arm and appeared in good spirits. Mr. M. IL Leyne came next. His appearance betokened ill-health, but he walked firmly and with perfect composure. Mr. O'Donohoe was the last of the prisoners to enter, and all having been seated in a first-class carriage, the train was got in readiness without delay. The prisoners were escorted from Kilmainham b3r - Superinten . dent Selwood, Inspectors Tydd, Stokes, and Carmody, and four constables. In the carriages along with the prisoners were placed fifty consta bulary, -with fixed bayonets, under the command of Sub-Inspector Gernon. Major Brownrigg and Mr. Fitzgerald, of the constabulary, were present at the railway, and superintended the arrangements. Owing to the shortness of the notice for the departure, and the secrecy observed throughout the whole affair, there were very few persons present. Beside the above State prisoners, three men named Tyme, Stack, and Orchard—parties accused of having taken part in the affair at Ballingarry, were brought from Newgate in, charge of Mr. Frederick Bourne, the deputy-governor of that prison. These persons were put into the third-Class carriage, guarded by constabulary. The arrangements for the departure of the train having been complete at nine o'clock it started a few minutes after that hour. We understand that the destination of the train was 'Tipperary, and that the carriage and horses brought down is for the conveyance of the prisoners from . that town to Clonmel. The prisoners (with the exception of Mr. Leyne) looked remarkably well, and judging from their appearance, they seemed in cheerful spirits. THE COMMISSION. The Judges all leave town this afternoon for Clonmel. The Commission will open unlike ordinary assizes for the county at large. For ordinary pur poses the county has been divided into two ridings, the assizes for the north ridin g being held at Nenagh, for the south riding at Clonmel, with separate grand and petit juries. It has been decided that this divi sion of the county does not apply to the case of special commissions, and the grand and petit panels will both be returned for the entire county. Mr. Bull and Sir Colman O'Loghlen are to appear for Mr. Meagher; Mr. Henn, Q.C., and Mr. White side, for Mr. Smith O'Brien. It is said that the Attorney-General claims Mr. Henn's services for the Crown, and insists that the retainer for Mr. O'Brien shall be returned. THE PERIPATETIC PARLIAMENTS. The Society for Promoting the Annual Sittings of. the Imperial Parliament in Ireland for transacting Irish business, met yesterdhy, at eight o'clock iesa., at the Committee-room, at the Northumberland-build ings, when the chair was taken by Mr. Napier, in the absence of Lord William Fitzgerald. Letters were read from Lord 'William Fitzgerald, apologising for his absence, and various letters con taining advice as to the proceedings of the society, and suggesting other matters. Several other letters were read, proposing alterations and amendments of the proposed scheme, the substitution of other plans, and enlargement of the sphere of operations, by sub stituting a variety of remedial measures. The sub joined resolution was, in consequence, submitted, and unanimously adopted : " Resolved—That none of these suggestions be entertained or discussed, the'committee being pledged to confine themselves to the high object of endeavour ing to secure a periodical sitting of the Imperial Parliament in Dublin, for the consideration of Irish affairs." The following new members were proposed and admitted, C. E. Walker, J.P., D.L. ; Sharman Craw ford, Esq., IMP.; Hugh O'Reilly, E sq , J.P. ; J . S . Hamilton, Esq. ; W. Stern, Esq. ; Chichester Bolton, Esq., J.P. ; Augustin B ar t on , Esq. ; R. Grattan, Esq.; Sir Richard Baker; T. M. Gresham, Esq. ; P. Kearney, Esq., J.P. ; William Radcliffe, Esq.; Samuel Smith, Esq., J.P.'; Thomas Rotherham, Dl., J.P.; Peter Nugent Fitzgerald, Esq. • Toriano L'Estrange, Esq., J.P.; th e Edi tor o f the Leinster Express; the Editor of the Meath Herald; J ames Burke,. Esq., Barrister at- law; George Nesbitt, Esq. ; James M‘Glashan, Esq. " Resolved—That it is desirable that the public mind should be extensively and accurately informed as to the character of our project, and that the mis representations and hostility of a portion of the press should be fairly and temperately replied to. " Resolved—That sub-committees be appointed to set forth severally, and more at length than in our brief prospectus and Statements—first, the difficulty supposed to be in the way of the accomplishment of the measure ; second, the advantages to be anticipated from it, and to report the result of their examination to the society." Thanks having been voted to the chairman, the meeting separated. THE " GODLESS" COLLEGES. The Evening Herald of last night announces that Dr. Ennis who was sent to Rome by Dr. Murray, the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin, for the purpose of inducing the Pope to rescind his condemnation of the Irish Colleges, has failed in his mission, antithat the Sovereign Pontiff has solemnly re-affirmed the condemnation of the Queen's Colleges, pro nounced some months ago by. the Propaganda. THE ORANGEMEN AND THE COURT OF ROME. The Luther and Wesley Orange Lodges of Dublin have agreed to address the Queen, condemnatory of the Diplomatic Relations with Rome Bill. The memorial concludes as follows : " Finally, may it please your Majesty, we humbly pray-1. That your Majesty may not give your assent to this most obnoxious, unprincipled, and dangerous measure ; or if such should have been given, that your Majesty may never act upon it. 2. That your Majesty may be pleased forthwith to dis miss Lord John Russell, Lord Clarendon, and the rest of your Majesty's Ministers from office, as men ha ve trifled have grossly b e t raye d th e ir trust, and p trifled with your M a j es ty' s and the people's rights, disaster and thereby doing all in their power to sprei . a That your and misery over the whole realm. 3 that the proper i o 'direct the a d r l conduct n t dd impeachmentutte to go vern ; and o , of lastly t he s this I m teP e a n j: f stA)e o y r a s malt u o ch nc h bee ig t'a h Pi ly eeans c ef r d to im r that your Majesty may be s according to the wish of the Papal holy word, and not great empire on the principles pea in e culFated in God's l' ion and piety, maybe establ shed amongst j A u n st t i i e c e lfr r is e t: g so that peace and happine i ss, truth and us throughout all generations.

Mr. Charles Gibson, town c l er k , it , ap peared to proSecute, and said that was his intention to proceed against the prisoner for obtaining money - under false pretences, and not for embezzlement, and in order to enable hirato complete his.case, asked for a remand for ten days, which was at once consented to by Mr. Hard in., who appeared for the prisoner. Curtis was then - admitted to bail, himself in 2001., and two sureties in 100/., and liberated. The Court was crammed. SANITAIIT IMPROVEUENTS.--- Several meetings were held yesterday, in different parishes in the metropolis, for the purpose of adopting measures for improving the condition of the sewers, and confining obnoxious efan vium, arising from the trap gratings in the streets of London to the subterranean courses of the drains. Medical nip have given it as their opinion that fevers and other diseases are engendered by this abominable nuisance. One woull really be led to imagine, such an absence is there of. common sense in the practice, that trap-grating s in the streets of crowded neighbourhoods were designed expressly to produce the mischief of which the public so universally complain: ' ' - - Last week, as Mr. Hylton's menagerie was enter. ing Rhayadzer, Wales, . the elephant was regaled at and baker's.- Ile carefully " surve)ed " the about two o'clobk - the next Morning broke o tem porary in no. time-put s i‘a igh y t out of his premise . s, an , . belief's rn shop, loaves.and ... i , Re then ;demolished . the ; bottles containing the a we d.. a 51 ,, t . l i n e t u o r t t e h en e b a q k u ~,,,L , , , ,,, d ;'6- u f f - 4A e Il ia] , ly appearanee of the keepeT tith ..,..; iLaxandolinthi l ti l *Mitlartliiks this huge beast * cqrumitted before daylight.—Liverpool ... y, Illerc u prald hav 8 . ..,
