All who are professionally conversant with the condition of our Hospitals complain of the inadequate supply of well-trained nurses as an evil seriously interfering with the efficient discharge of their du ties. They cannot trust to their orders being executed by the nurses, and they find that the patients sutler from faults of those on whom, in their state of helplessness, they are almost entirely depen dent; and it is obvious that any defects in the tempers and charac ters of those who are constantly with the sick must exercise a hurt ful influence upon the state of their minds, and must tend to neutral. ize the effect of the religious instruction and consolation which they recei:•e while in the hospital. . . . . It 3,3 also matter of general notoriety that great difficulty is fount' in obtaining well qualified nurses to attend on patients in private families, especially in those 01 the middle and lower classes; and parochial clergymen feel the want of competent persons on whom they could rely, in vistin , the sick of their respective parishes, and administering to their bodily * wants. The most effectual, perhaps the only effectual, remedy for these evils, is to train np a body of nurses who shall be taught to look upon their work as a religious one, to undertake it with habits of self-contro', and with a mind understanding it fully, and prepared for its trying and painful duties. 'i he w.mt here spoken of has been felt in other countries as well as in our own, and attempts have been made to meet it. Orders of persons devoting themselves to visiting the sick exist in Boman Catholic countries : an " Institution of Deaconesses" has been found useful in Prussia ; a recent attempt to improve the respectability of professional nursis has worked beneficiaily in England. The Insti tution which it is proposed to found under the name of " Training Institution for Nurse," will be based on the doctrine and discipline of the Church of England ; and it will seek to accomplish its object, not by selecting the self-devoted few who are permitted by freedom front other duties to give themselves entirely to this, but by endea vouring to act, boils directly and indirectly, upon the whole body of persons wls are pursuing this as their regular calling in life. To raise the character of the class by offering to its members a training which shall quality Minn tor their professional work, and be at the saute time essentially a religious training; to hold out, to those who are justified in seeking for it, the prospect of a higher professions position than they could otherwise obtain ; and to afford also to those who are ready (without hope of any earthly reward) to give themselves to this work as one of Christian love, a legitimate field of labour: these are the means which, as they have been successful in forming the high character of the clergy and physicians of Eng land, may, it is hoped, be now instrumental, under God's blessing, ill raising that of a body which is at present so much in want of improvement. It is proposed that the Training Institution should be under the immediate superintendence of a clergyman of the United Church of England and Ireland, as Master. That the inmates of the Institution should consist of three Classes : 1. Those under training as probationers. 2. Those who, after passing through the period of probation sa tisfactorily, are admitted as nurses, on condition of their engaging to continue in connexion with tile Institution for a period of five years from their admission. During this period they will be clothed and maintained, and receive a fixed annual stipend, and in return will be entirely under the control of the governing body of the In stitution. At the end of these five years they will be entitled to receive from the institution a certificate of their qualification as nurses, and thenceforward to pursue their calling, either in connexion with the Institution, or independent of any direct control from it. It is be lieved that this will be a very important step towards gradually raising the character of the whole class. A nurse having this certi cate will necessarily occupy a higher position than others, will be likely to set an example wide) can scarcely fail to have a good effect upon them, and will encourage those who are looking forward to this as their work in life, to follow in the same course, and submit them selves to the training of this Institution. 3. In addition to these there will be a class of sisters, which is in tended to comprise persons, of whatever station in life, who are willing to devote themselves to the work of attending the sick and poor, or of educating others for it under an organised system like that which Kill be here provided for them. The management of the Institution will be confided to a council of twenty -tour members, (exclusive cf the master, who will be ex officio a member,) belonging to the United Church of England and Ireland, who shall be chosen by the Governors out of their own body. A donation of fifty guineas in one payment, or in several payments within four years, er an annual subscription of five guineas, will con stitute a Governor. A donation of twenty guineas in one payment, or in several pay ments within four years, or an annual subscription of two guineas, will constitute a Donor. The Lord Bishop of London has sanctioned the plan now sub mitted to the public, and has kindly consented to become President of the Institution. It has alio •received the approbation of the Lord Archbishop of York, and the Bishops of Lielifield, Salisbury, Gloucester and Bristol, Ripon, and Norwich. The Rev. C. Wordsworth, D.D., George Frere, Esq., and Dr. Latham,' have kindly consented' to act as Trustees to the Insti tution. henry Sykes Thornton, Esq., has consented to act as Treasurer. The following gentlemen have formed themselves into a Provi sional Committee, to arrange the details of the Institution, and to solicit assistance for its establishment and maintenance : Rev. J. M.

It may with truth be averred, that ROWLANDS' MAC AS SAR OIL has enjoyed an extent of patronage and public favour dur ing the last half century which is totally unexampled in the annals of felicitous discovery. The extraordinary efficacy, and happy amal gamation of its purely exotic materials, have rendered it justly re nowned throughout the world for its remarkable virtues in nourish ing, preserving, and beautifying the Human Hair. It insinuates its balsamic properties into the pores of the head, nouri,hes the Hair in its embryo state, cleanses it from scurf and dandruff, accelerates its growth ; sustains it in maturity, and continues its possession of healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy to the latest period of human life. In the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and Mustachois, it is also unfailing in its stimul ative o p erations. For Chil dren it is especially recommended, as forming the basis of a Beau tiffil Head of Hair, and rendering, the use of the fine comb urine- Mealy. Its invaluable properties have obtained the especial Patronage of her Majesty the Queen, the Court, and the whole of the Royal Family of Great Britain, and of every Court of the civilised world ; and the high esteem in which it is universally held, together with numerous Testimonials constantly received , of its efficacy, afford the best and surest proofs of its merits.

A I A G -E. 3 / 1 One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right deteroVne the former, and miscalculated hopes em -sittet the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosiag hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and,broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness end social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement. Honour end justice demand that health should form an item In the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or seglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

Report of Richard Tothill, Esq., of Heavitree, near Exeter, M.R.C.8.L., for 1848. "I have now for thirteen years conducted the Exeter HygeiturDii ponsary, wherein the poor of Exeter and its neighbourhood.havebeen treated gratuitously with :sir. Morison's purely Vegetable Medicine of the British College of Health, and I am still more confirmed in my opinion (from practical experience, not in one or two cases, but in hundreds), that the Hygeian system is founded in truth. The cases which have been cured by that excellent medicine have not been of. a common character, being, as I may say, the incurables of the hos pitals at Exeter, it bejng only after trying all sorts of treatment that patients hays recourse, as ti last rerort, to the Hy4eian medicines. The names of the parties and their addresses are recorded in my book for the inspection of the public. I have treated upwards of 300 poor patients during the past year, and I have now about 150 on the Dispensary books. In conclusion, I beg to return my sincere thanks to the subscribers to the Dispensary. (Signed) " _RICHARD TOTHILL, Surgeon, Ste. " Heavitrec, near Exeter, Jan. 1, 1848." N.B. No chemist or druggist is authorised to sell Morison's Pills. BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH, New road, London.—The principles of thC Ilygelan theory are con tained in the following propositions :-1. The vital principle is con tained In the blood. 2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood. 3. All constitutions are radically the same. 4. All diseases arise from the impurity of the blood, or, in otter words, from acri monious humours lodged in the body. 5. This humour, which de generates the Wpod, has three sources —tlio maternine, the conta gious, and the personal. 6. Disease and pain have the same origin, and may therefore be considered synonymous terms. 7. Purgation by proper vegetable purgatives is the only effectual mode of eradi cating disease. 8. Experience of upwards of twenty years has amply proved MORISON'S VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINE to be such proper vegetable purgative. 9. From the intimate connexion subsisting between the mind and the body, the health of theone must conduce to the serenity of the other.

HONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. In the Cotton Market at Liverpool there was a de cline yesterday of about id. per lb. Sales, 2,500 bales, of which 2,000 were American, at 4id. per lb. Railway Shares had been affected by the general panic. North Western fell 10-1. per share, and Midland 61. We have had an opportunity of inspecting the news papers from various parts of the continent, and in none of them does there appear to be any political intelli gence of striking interest, although the condition of the markets for the Public Securities was extremely agitated, even where the extent of the French Revolution had not become known. Belgian Stock had suffered most, although all was quiet up to the latest accounts from Antwerp, notwithstanding the agitation in the frontier towns of France. The resumption of trade in France is likely to be very slow, but the postal communication is again in opera tion; and it has been officially intimated to our Govern ment, that the India mail has been safely forward on through France. The abandonment of the income-tax has given much satisfaction; and it is hoped that if taxes must hereafter be levied, for a present n, 2; 3is not-admitted, the upper classes will offer no opposition to contribute from their fixed " property." The letters received from New York state that the shipments of flour had been very small during the pre vious ten days. The decline in prices in England was expected to prevent further exports to any extent at present. There has been, as might be expected, a great deal of fluctuation again in the Funds. Consols have ranged from 83 to 81i for present transfer, and from 83k to 81i for account, being now about 81$ Exchequer-bills have realised 4s .to 12s. prem. Bank Stock has been 190 to 195. The New Three-and-a-Quarter Cents. have realised 824 to 84. The settlement in the Foreign Market has come so soon upon the late tremendous fall in prices, that no less than five brokers and Jobbers have failed. The fall since the panic commenced has been 5 to 7 per cent. in the different securities. Spanish Active Bonds are 14 to 14i, and the Three per Cents. 24 to 27. Portuguese Four per Cents. have realised 17 to 19, and Brazilian 75. Mexican have been 17 and 15. Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents. are 45. Railway Shares are still very depressed, especially the French lines, but sellers are not so pressing. ONE CLOSDIG PRICES OF BRITISH FUNDS. O'CLOCK. PRICES Bank Stock 3 per Cent.

Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecarks' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hespitil Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil. which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, he raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in hew many could itbertraced to physical disqualifications and thee gift, which iratteneltuit whendlsap pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes. when abused, the Moline source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on .he nature and consequence 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 au 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 d possessed. It unfortu na tely happens that the unhappy victim of exeessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from 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 tor assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and 4 the medical man who can show by his 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.'3IERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news paper on Ang. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor malty of publicly thanking Mr. W. Brimstone, of the Herbary, High vile for ithe efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hairen her head, after using itabont four months, and the whole of her hair's much stronger and more luxuriant than I ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an I is. bottle it they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and produotion of hair la &blind .l.:a3, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfitmeiti far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any ady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Borough." In eases of the hair becoming.thin, weak, or turning grey, are w drops on the crown of the head occasionally. every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, mace it strong, and prevent it turning' grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A !ew drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion t 3 the toilet. In cases of nevem' headache, pear ten or twelve drops on the erown of the bead; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair ou children's heads in a few appplications. It used on infants' heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See pamphlet of testimonials.

Yesterday his Royal Highness the Duke de Nemours did not leave the French Embassy, where his Royal Highness is at present sojourning. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Rent repaired to Hertford House, at ten o'clock, and there visited her illustrious relatives their Royal Highnesses the Prince Augustus and Princess of Saxe Coburg Gotha. The Royal Duchess remaiaed about half an hour with the Prince and Princess. The children of the Prince and Princess, namely, the Princes Philippe, Augustus, and the Princess Mary, and Prince Louis (Count d'Eu), eldest son of the Duke de Nemours, in the forenoon, after taking an airing in Lord Foley's carriage, were taken to Buckingham Palace, one of the Queen's carriages having been sent from the Royal Mews for that purpose, where they still remain. AZ a quarter t. r 0... o'clock, the %chess tie Mont peuster at the Embassy from the London-bridge terminus of the South-Eastern Railway. Her Royal Highness parted from the King and Queen very shortly after they left Paris, and under escort of a confidential friend of the Duke de Montoensier made the best of her way to Boulogne. At Ablieville the Duchess had a very narrow escape, having been recognised and attacked by a mob. Her Royal Highness only escaped by taking refuge in the house of a gentleman, from the rear of which she afterwards escaped and ultimately reached Boulogne, from which port she crossed yesterday. His Royal Highness Prince Leopold of Naples, Count de Syracuse, brother of the King of Naples, and, there fore, nephew of the ex-Queen of the French, waited on the Duke de Nemours, and had an audience of some duration. It will be recollected that, according to the correspondence from Paris, in the journals, the Prince was detained against his will from repairing to Naples in the outbreak of the political disturbances in Sicily. His Royal Highness, with much difficulty, escaped from Paris, and reached our hospitable shores on Sunday Hight, and forthwith came to the metropolis yesterday morning. We have only further to say, that their Royal High nesses the Prince and Princess Augusta of Saxe Coburg removed from the French Embassy soon after seven o'clock last evening to Buckingham Palace, to there re main while in this country. In case it should be sup posed by many of our readers, that it is likely to hurt our friendly relations with the Provisional Government of France, we only mention the fact, that the Prince is a cousin of the Prince Consort. _ The Duke of Wellington called personally at half past one o'clock to visit the Royal Duke, and the other visits of condolence included the Duke and Duchess of Norfolk and the Ladies Howard, his Excellency the Bavarian Minister, and Baroness de Cetto, his Excel lency Viscount Moncorvo, his Excellency Chevalier Bunsen, Chevalier Ribero, M. Tacnn, the Spanish Chargé d'Affaires, the Marquis and Marchioness of Lansdowne, the Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury, the Earl and Ladies Fitzwilliam, Viscountess Palmer ston, the Earl of Mansfield, the Earl and Countess Granville, the Dowager Countess Verulaw, the Countess (Dowager) Mansfield and Ladies Murray, the Earl Spencer, the Earl and Countess Delawarr, Colonel and Lady Alice Peel, Viscount and Viscountess Jo celyn, the Earl Fortescue, Viscount and Vicountess Ebrington, Viscount and Viscountess Canning, Sir Stratford and Lady Canning, Viscount Canterbury, Mr. H. Baring, M.P.; Mr. and Lady Georgiana Fuller ton, Lady Brougham, Hon. Colonel Dawson Darner, Lady Anne Mackenzie, the Earl and Countess of Shel burne, Sir Harry and Lady Verney, Vicount and Vi countess Dillon, the Earl and Countess of Jersey, and Lady Clementine Villiers, Sir James and Lady Graham, and Miss Graham, Viscount and Vicountess Falkland, Lieutenant-Gener al Sir Alexander Woodford, Lieu tenaut-Colonel Edward Begot, the Countess of Gains borough, and Lady Catherine Noel, Mr. O'Gorman Mahon. Scc.' The Duke de Montebello called, and had a protracted audience of the Duke de Nemours yesterday. At the hour our informant left the French Embassy no tidings had been received of the Duke de Montpen sier, or Louis Phillipe and his estimable Consort. The refuge of the Duchess de Nemours is also unknown. It is now satisfactorily ascertained that M. Duchatel is in safety. The general opinion of all persons from Paris is, that M. Guizot is seereted in the capital (that is to say up to Thursday last), but an impression is en tertained thnt he escaped that night and fled to the south. This latter is acknowledged to be only conjecture. FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, FEB. 26.—Mr. Van Praidli, the Mi nister of the Royal Household, has been dispatched to Paris. An edict has been issued by the Minister of War, calling upon the militia of 1843 and 1844 to assemble beneath their standards. FEB. 27.—The deepest anxiety prevails here as to the fate of the ex-King of the French, for nothing whatever has been heard respecting his movements. The general opinion is that he will go to England. Our Queen shows the most admirable presence of mind under the terrible disasters which have befallen her family. Yesterday morning, at eleven o'clock, his Majesty again held a Privy Council. The Chamber of Representatives was crowded with anxious au ditors, who expected that from the general intense anxiety which prevailed, that the Mi nisters and the Members of the Chambers would give vent to expressions of the general feeling on this momentous subject; there was, however, neither dis cussion nor explanation, and this might have been expected. FEB. 26.—The theatrical representation which was to have taken place this evening for the benefit of the poor of Flanders has been postponed, the manager being of opinion that during the extreme agitation which prevails the theatre will be deserted. After to-day the police will demand to see the passports of all persons arriving at or leaving Flan ders by the steamers.—Journaldu Commerce d'Anvers. GRATZ, FEBRUARY.—The disturbances among the peasants, though apparently subdued, constantly re appear in a spirit of discontent and opposition, and manifest themselves in numerous ways, which hold out sad forebodings for the future. The directors of the Brussels Railway have decided that they will not issue any tickets either for Valen ciennes or Lille. They will not undertake to carry passengers farther than Imeorain on the one side and Monscrou on the other. King Leopold, although profoundly moved by these events, appears perfectly calm and collected. He is continually occupied with Ministers in concoct , iDg unman which Pay be called by the extra- ."`"" ,sdinary exigencies of the oment. General Chisel, the Minister of War, di ays very great activity. The correspondence from France for Germany was forwarded on the 25th through Belgium. Consider able apprehensions were entertained as to the effects of the Paris revolution upon Belgium.—Courrier Beige. HANOVER.—A decree was issued by the King of Hanover on the 12th of February, stating that specu lators in Belgium and Holland have lately imposed upon credulous persons to a large extent, by repre sentations of valuable inheritances in those countries, to which they might become entitled by the payment of small sums. His Majesty, therefore, warns his subjects not to hav e anyt hi ng to do with these unlaw ful lotteries, which are sure to end in their disap pointment and ruin. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

DEATH OF MR. T. COOKE.—We regret to an nounce that this eminent musician died on Saturday, at his residence in Great Portland-street, in the 67th year of his age, after several weeks of intense suffering. It is stated that it is the intention of the Marquis of Northampton to resign the Presidency of the BO) al Society at the close of the present year. SHIPWRECK AND LOSS OF LIFE.—The following we have received from our Greenock correspondent:— The brig Emma, of Copenhagen, Captain Hansen, which sailed from Hammersfest about the middle of overaft to lea th vi e ng eo li as a t m oi January last, with a cargo of stock fish for Trieste, n had v s a f est continuation h y which sheof galeshweaaysydriven after Greenland. She was enabled, however, when the wea ther moderated a little, to make way; but on the 12th inst., when she was between St. Kilda Land Rockall, a violent gale came on, and she was struck by a tremend ous :sea, which carried away both masts, bulwarks, stanchions, cockhouse, completely swept the decks, and, in short, left her a complete wreck. Her hull was comparatively uninjured. Two of her crew were car• vied overboard and drowned. After she had knocked about in this t?isabled condition for seven days, the crew being obliged to subsist on bread and water, she reached Lochbuoy. It is expected she will put into the Clyde. —.North British Mail. HORSE FAIRS IN THE NORTII.--At the various horse lairs which have been held in the northerncounties during the last few days, contrary to the opinion of a number of large dealers, the prices of hdrses, especially good ones, have been considerably higher than was anti cipated, and the demand greater. At Wigton, Cocker mouth, and other places, the show of horses was gene rally numerous and superior animals. Draught horses were in great demand, which were sold at prices varying from 301, 40/, and 501. for the best. Good saddle horses, suitable for harness, were soon sold, the wrices being 301., 351., 40/,, 50/., and up to 701. each. The show ot three year-olds, and other young horse% was only poor.
