Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em titter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un tiorciprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, end broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement. honour and jnsticedernand that health sheuldform an item in the conepnet ; It. alone dignities the alliance.

BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. Doctor of Medicine. Matriculated Member of the University of E4l burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member - of the London Hosp ital Medical Societ y , &c. n 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, 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 conseouence 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 tho closest attention and study, for what subj the ect can be of more import a nce than the preservation of health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive 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 for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the i n t e lli gen t an d practical physician , a nd to the medical noun who can show by his posse , sion 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 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.

DEATH OF JAMES WATT, EsQ.—Our obituary of this week records the death of James Watt, Esq., the last surviving son of the illustrious improver of the steam engine. He was born on the sth of February, 1769, and was, therefore,' in his 80th year. Inheriting a large share of the powerful intellect of his distinguished father, to the extension of whose fame he had for the last thirty years shown the most zealous and truly filial devotion, he united to great sagacity and a masculine understand ing the varied acquirements and literary tastes of a well cultivated mind. His name will long be remembered in association with that of the late Mr. Boulton, as they were for nearly half a century successfully engaged in carrying out those inventions and improvements by which the genius of his father was immortalised. For the last eight years of his life he had comparatively retired from active business, and had devoted much time and atten tion to the improvement of his extensive estates in the counties of Radnor and Brecon, where his tenantry will have to lament the loss of a kind, energetic, and liberal landlord. —Birmingham Journal.

IRELAND. DUBLIN, JUNE 14.—Mr. John O'Connell is certainly no prophet. On Monday week he was a firm friend of fraternization. On the following Monday, helloing the Catholic Bishops were opposed to union, he de clared himself adverse to the proposition, and was most heartily hooted in consequence, when, behold you, it now appears that the Catholic Bishops afore said, including the Lion of the fold of Judah and the Dove of Elphin, are all staunch supporters of " the new organization." Th at t h e fact i s so ca nno4 any longer be denied. T rue i t i s that Mr. J o h n O'Connell received and read, at C onc i l i ation Hall, an epistle from Dr. Cantwell, in w hi c h " great discourageme nt " was dealt out to the proj ec t ; b ut i t i s also true , that while Mr. J. O'Connell was rea di ng the letter o f di s approval, the Right Rev. F a th er was wr i t i ng anot h er , i n which he gave it his heartiest su pp ort. " Truth i s strange , stranger than fiction ;" and n ever was t h e aphor i sm b e tter exem plified than in the following:— " Coffey's Hotel, June 12, 1848. "Dear Mr. O'Co nne ll,—H av i ng come to tow n on my way to Drogheda, I h ave rea d i n the e vening papers the terms proposed to-d a y i n t h e Assoc i at i on f o r the re union of Repealers. I h asten to express my cordial concurrence in them. Th ere occurs to me no alteration that I would wish to suggest, with the exce ption, Per' haps, of a mere v er b a l one i n rule the 1 0th, which might, it is likely, be b e tt er ca l culated to secur e the co operation of the Cath o li c bi s h ops and clergy , if worded as follows 10th. Ecclesiastical or religious subjects are not to be introduced into the discussions of the League, except when it may be required for the defence of religious liberty, or for protecting and vindicating the inalienable rights and immunities of conscience.' This change, however, I do not consider as very impor tant, the same security being given as to principle by the 10th rule as it stands at present. " Having had frequent opportunities of knowlng the views and wishes of the Archbishop of Team, and the Bishop of Ardagh, who are at present , absent In Rome defending the Irish Church against the most' treacherous and dangerous assaults of her enemies, I feel confident that were they in Ireland they, too, would gladly hail this union of Irishmen in a league to secure what can alone save our afflicted and misgoverned country. " I have the honour to remain, my dear Mr. O'Con nell, your ever faithful and devoted servant, " t JOUN CANTWELL. " To John O'Connell, Esq., M.P." The Freeman, referring to the foregoing, states that the Right Rev. Dr. Maginn has written in the strongest terms in favour o f t h e pro p os ed union. The Confederates have postpon e d th e i r meet i n g till this day week in order that the country may be afforded time to give expression to its opinion on the subject. THE NAVIGATION-LAWS.--The Chamber of Com merce, Belfast, have met and declared that it is just and proper to apply to the shipping interest the free-trade principles adopted in other branches of business. The resolution was proposed by Mr. Grimahaw, and seconded by Mr. Heron, one of the most extensive shipowers in Belfast. This gentleman declared that in his opinion " every shred of monopoly should be abolished save what could be established by British energy, intelligence, and wealth." THE ARMY.—The Tipperary Vindicator complains of the misconduct of the 34th depot quartered in Nenagb. Intoxication, it appears, is among the most pardonable of their offences. AFFAIR OF HONOU/I.—Dr. Fulton and Mr. Robert Jennings were brought before the magistrates of College street Office upon a warrant which had been issued for their apprehension, grounded on the information to the effect that it was their intention to commit a breach of the peace by fighting a duel. The information was sworn in consequence of a fracas which took place be tween the parties in the Four Courts on the previous day, in which some severe blows were given. Mr. Jennings entered into his own recognizances to the amount of 2001. to keep the peace, and gave two sure ties besides, Mr. Thomas M. Dunlevie, of Rutland-square, and John Peebles, M.D., of Dorset-street. He was then set at liberty. Dr. Fulton at first declined to enter into bail, on the ground that he had been assailed first, and had only de tended himself. The matter was postponed for a time, and when Dr. Fulton was again brought forward, Mr. O'CALLAGHAN said he would commit him if he did not enter into bail. The prisoner applied to be sent down in custody to the Queen's Bench. Mr. O'CALLAGHAN said he would not do anything of the kind. Dr. Fulton then said he had no alternative but to give bail. He then entered into his own recognizances in the same amount as the other prisoner, and Mr. Perry, soli citor, and Mr. Dowling, merchant, became his sureties, after which he was liberated.

The mines of Sicily have been worked for several centuries; but it is only since 1820 that any considerable quantity was pre pared for exp ortat i on . Subsequently to 1833, the trade with this country increased so much, that the export of sulphur to the United Kingdom rose from about 20,000 tons in that year to 38,654 tons in 1838. In the autumn of that year the Neapolitan Govern ment .established a monopoly in the trade, at the suggestion of a Frenchman named Tait, the imme diate consequence of which was to cause a rise in the price of sulphur from 6L or 71. a ton to double that amount. In 1839 the importation to this country fell from 44,000 tons to one half that quantity. To show what effect this injudicious move of the Sicilian government had upon science, we cannot do better than quote the following extract from an inte resting little work by the celebrated German chemist and philosopher, Justice Liebig, entitled " Familiar Letters on Chemistry." ' " Reflecting upon the important influence which the price of sulphur exercises upon the cost of production of bleached and printed cotton stuffs, soap, glass, &c., and remembering that Great Britain supplies America, Spain, Portugal, and the east with these, exchanging them for raw cotton, silk, wine, raisins, indigo, &c., we can under stand why the English Government should have resolved to resort to war with Naples, in order to abolish the sulphur monopoly, which the latter power attempted re cently to establish. Nothing could be more opposed to the true interests of Sicily than such a monopoly; indeed, had it been maintained for a few years, it is highly probable'that sulphur, the source of her wealth, would have been rendered perfectly valueless to her. Science and industry form a power to which it is dangerous to present impediments. It was not diffi cult to perceive that the issue would be the entire cessation of the exportation of sulphur from Sicily. In the short period that the sulphur monopoly lasted, fifteen patents were taken out for methods to obtain back the sulphuric acid used for making soda. Admitting that these fifteen processes were not per fectly successful, there can be no doubt that it would, ere long, have been accomplished. But then in gypsum (sulphate of lime), and in heavy spar (sulphate of barytes), we possess mountains of sul phuric acid; in galena (sulphuret of lead), and in iron pyrites, we have no less abundance of sulphur. The problem is, how to separate the sulphuric acid or the sulphur from these native stores. Hundreds of thousands of pounds weight of sulphuric acid were prepared from iron pyrites while the high price of sulphur consequent upon the monopoly lasted. We should probably, ere long, have triumphed. over all difficulties and have separated it from gypsum. The impulse has been given, the possibility of the process proved, and it may happen in a few years that the in considerate financial speculation of Naples may deprive her that of that lucrative commerce." Through the intervention of the British Govern ment in 1840, the, sulphur trade with Sicily was placed on the same footing as previously to 1838, and in that state it still continues, though the quan tity now , imported is very considerably reduced, in consequence of the extraction of it from some of the ores of iron and copper, termed pyrites. By far the most considerable applications are in the preparations of sulphuric acid, and of gunpowder, which is a mix ture of sulphur, nitre, and charcoal. An enormous quantity is also consumed in the preparation of matches, lucifers, and fireworks; it is employed in medicine extensively; in the preparation of vermilion, which is a combination of mercury and sulphur; to cement iron bars into stone; and also for bleach ing and disinfecting. The last mentioned are how ever applications of sulphurous acid, one of the com binations of sulphur and oxygen, which we shall hereafter have to notice. It has been recently estimated that about 5,000,000,000 lucifer matches are annually consumed in Great Britain alone, and one maker con sumes 1,0001. worth of American pine in manufacturing them. The success that has attended the various manu factures of our country, almost entirely dependent on she science of chemistry, should teach us how dili gent search -after new truths, however remote they may at first appear frosn'any'direct practical applica tion, may, in the course of time, lead to results of the greatest importance, and that no well-ascertained laet in natural science is ever barren.—Trades' Weekly Messenger. A NOVEL CURE FOR A SNAKE BITE.--The Syd ney Morning Chronicle relates a successful, but some what novel mode of curing the bite of a snake, the par ticulars of which may be found useful. The wife of an Irishman, who was very partial to whisky, having been bit in the leg by a snake of a very venomous description, and no surgeon being at hand, the husband flew to his favourite for a remedy. Taking a bottle of whisky he applied it mouth down ward to the wound, and kept it fast in that position till the surgeon arrived, On being questioned by the latter as to the reason of this application, the man replied that, as whisky was good for everything, he thought it would be good for a snake bite. The bottle was removed, and it was found that the liquor had become darker, while there was a corresponding decrease in the discoloration surroun ing the wound. Seeing that the spirits had acted so well more was upplied in the same manner, until the liquor came from the a ound pure and untainted, by which means the patient was totally recovered. If a cure can really be effected in this way, it is probable that one kind of spiri tuous liquor will suffice as well as another for the pur pose, and the remedy is one which may in most instances be obtained when surgical aid is not p rocura bl e. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM OSTEND.--TUESDAY, NINE A.m., JUNE 13.—This town and neighbourhood was visited by one of the moat terrific thunder storms that has ever been known to take place within the memory of the oldest inhabitant. The morning was unusuall ) fine until one or two o' c l oc k, P.m., when the heat be. came close and oppressive; yet, notwithstanding , the sea wall or dike, and outs ki rts of the town, i daring the whole afternoon, w ere covered with the holiday folks. Suddenly, a b out s i x o ' clock, a few slight dark clouds be gan to overshadow the sky, parti cularly towards the north. Of course, a regular sauce qui putt ensued, and the fashionable pro menades were soon cleared. This cloudiness of the air was accompanied by a warm and very gentle wind; after which not a breath of air stirred, as though the elements were taking a few minutes repose in order to be able to burst forth with greater violence; as, in a few minutes, flash after flash of the most vivid forked lightning shone forth in rapid succession, followed by loud peels of thunder. At this moment the view on the sea was awfully grand; the lightning was flitting about here and there, and might be compared in its movements to fiery snakes twist ing and writhing as if they were in agony. In a few minutes a shower, not of hail-stones, but of pieces of ice, came down with the greatest violence, striking on the roofs of the low houSes, and rebounding with great force against the windows of their opposite neighbours; in fact, they fell with such power as to cut holes in the centre of the glass similar to a bullet. Several of these pieces of ice were picked up from the fluor of the lower rooms, and on examining them they appeared to be all of the same form, being smooth and flat at the bottom (as if they had been rubbed against some hard substance in order to polish them), and round, not unlike a water caraffe, varying in weight from one to three ounces. I waft shown one specimen of a piece of ice, which was then as large as a small egg, although the indi vidual had brought it in his warm hand from the railway station, where he had picked it up, being a good five minutes' walk from the place where I was examining the ice ball. I fear to-morrow's post will bring with it sad tidings of the damage done in the country. About -half-past eight the thunder, lightning, and rain recommenced, and continued with great vio lence, about twenty minutes after which the moon rose in all her majestic splendour, and at present the air is soft, the sky clear and starlight, and no one would ever suppose that such an awful storm had just been wit nessed, which was of thirty minutes' duration. THE NEW FORTIFICATIONS AT SHEERNESS.—These extensive works, together with the repair and heighten ing of the old fortifications, are now complete, and the guns are all mounted, the last gun having been hoisted on to the carriage last week. The entire line of fortifi cations is one mile and a quarter, and the number of guns 118, some of which are of a most extraordinary large size, weighing from 80 to 90 cwt. At several places along the line nearest to the sea the battery con sists of very thick brickwork, and these parts are called the musketry batteries, there being a great number of apertures through ,the brickwork, designed for the pointing of muskets. The whole lice is surrounded by a deep moat, which is crossed at only one place, where the fortifications cross the high road, and here there is some outer work, consisting of a bastion and a raveline, and a second moat, and there are (also two drawbridges and two pairs of strong gates. A concrete foundation had been laid down for the erection of new barracks, and piles are now being ,driven for the erection of several powder magazines.— Canterbury Journal.

On Wed nesday their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visited the Hospital, and made an ex ceedingly handsome present in aid of the funds of the charity. [PRICE SD. • MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,500 bales. There were 1,000 bales taken for export. The market was heavy. In prices very little alteration oc curred. A good business was done in Railway Shares, at previous rates, but stock was scarcer. In the political accounts both from France and Ger many there is a comparative lull to-day; but the mer cantile letters received from Hamburgh hold out no hope of a speedy adjustment of the Danish question. As the; Swedes are preparing more vigorously to sccond the Danes, and as the Assembly at Frankfort must come to the determination either to pro secute the war on a larger scale, or to abate at once some of its pretensions, it is not improbable that we shall hear ere long of something important. At Copenhagen the condemnation of the captured vessels proceeded without further delay. Some few cases of release are mentioned, and respect had been paid to neutral property, but the blow is a severe one for German commerce, palliate it as we may. The New York liner Devonshire sailed to-day with 73 cabin and 150 steerage passengers ; she has also 350 tons of rails, and a larger quantity of other freight than usual. We hope, as there are do ubts of our receivin g man y orders for the " fall " trade , that all p arties ma y be • ted and that other vessels will take agreeably disappoin, fuller cargoes than was anticipated. The Corn Market is rather firm to-day, except for oats and barley. The Bulwer affair is still regarded with great interest and some misgiving in quarters connected with Spain. There is expected to be a change of Ministry at Madrid, lowering by . .1. 2 . and even th en t h e arrangemen t of the misunderstand ing will h ave to b e delicate l y con d uc ted. _ The course a d opte d b y t h e Bank of England in a fair busin ess doin g attained a pri ce hi lie Consols of m ercantile bills has b een generally approved, and m a y g i ve an i mpetus t o t ra de, although 1 i r ex money y abundant was already sufficiently in the general market.

" The correction of the Work, in reference to the new Statutes and Cases (which are brought down to May, 1e48), and the revision of the Press in general, has been confined by the Author to his Son ; his own retirement from professional practice, and the transfer of his at tention to official duties, rendering him less competent than formerly to labours of that description. But the sheets have been invariably laid before him during the progress of the pr,nting, and he feels him self able to vouch for their accuracy."

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—DEFARTURE OF THE FRENCH.—The anti-monopolists as a morning contempo rary has facetiously termed the troop of French actors whose performance at " Old Drury" has• given such offence to the English public, leave London next week, after giving two farewell performances for which they modestly charge only a guinea. The warm reception they received, we should think, will effectually prevent any si milar attempt of the kind being made by French artistic:. Patronage of foreign talent to a limited extent is very good, but when the bounds of moderation are passed, results like the present must be expected. f ESEND, via BLACK WALL RAIL - Wey -, and STAR and BLACKWALL PACKETS.
