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 mr assistance where alone it can be procured.

Lablache —the greaf Lablache—greatest of singers and of men— has returned to us in as good "case," in every sense of he word, as ever. He made his Mat for the seaso❑ last evening in a scena from the Matrimeinio Segretio, the dancing scena, which every one nlao remembers Lablache in this opera must also remember. In this scene Lad:wile gives full swing to the wit, drollery, humour, and " gag" of a Neapolitan buffo, and never was he in finer cue than last evening. his ♦oice—mellow, rich, and tiexible—seemed gushing with humcur; his gag (such gag, such a strange compound of English, French, and Italian as none bnt Lablache could conceive, as none but Lablache could utter) was full of wit and drollery, and his dancing was superb—never did he exhibit his powers, ♦ocal, terpsichorean, or humourous in greater force than he did last night. His son was the Conte Robinson, and proved himself worthy of his sire; the last duet, " Abbraciatno ci, " was splendidly sung, admirably acted, and rewarded with an unanimous encore. This scena was preceded by two acts of Nino, in which Mademoiselle Abbadia made her second appearance as Abigail. She was less nervous than she was on the occasion of her first appearance; And, consequently, sang and acted much better, but it was evident that she was still suffering from an unde fined sort of dread of her audience, which prevented her from doing justice to those powers which she undoubt -dly possesses. When she shall have become mere used to an English audience she will, no doubt, show herself fully worthy of her high Italian fame. Madetuoi sells Schwartz, the celebrated contralto from Vienna, was to have made her Milt last night as Orsini in Lucrezia Borgia, but, in consequence of the illness of Mademoiselle Cruvelli, who was to have been the Lu crezia, the production of the opera was postponed till to-morrow. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA, COVENT-GARDEN. Mozart's Don Giovanni was performed here for the first time this season, last evening, for the rentree of Signor Mario, as Don Ottavio. Madame Grisi was to have appeared as Donna Anna, but in consequence of !he illness of La Diva, Madame Castellan appeared in the part, and looked the character to admiration. She sang the music exquisitely, and infused into the part a graceful feminineness (if we be allowed the expression) which strongly reminded us of the perhaps most perfect representative of the character that has ever appeared —Henrietta Sontag. Mario, who was in excellent voice, gave the exquisite " II meo tesoro" with all his wonted sweetness and expression, and Tamburini was the very beau ideal of the I)on. Madame Persiani, who was in excellent voice and spirits, was the Zerlina, and was de servedly encored in the " La ci darem" with Tamburini. Mademoiselle Corbari made an admirable Donna Elvira. The trio in the first act, in which she takes part with Castellan and Mario, was exquisitely given, and of course encored. Rovere was the Leperello. An Italian audience would have been convulsed with laughter, but his funds of so local a character that an English audience scarcely understands it. The house was well attended.

CHARTIST CONVENTION (THIS DAY.) -- The delegates met this morning at nine o'clock; Mr. M'Grath in the chair. A number of letters were read from the constituents of the delegates commendatory of the conduct of the Convention, and expressing their willingness to avenge aoy attack that might be made upon them by the authorities. ADJOURNMENT OF` THE CONVENTION. Mr. Lump brought forward a motion, that at its rising to-morrow, it should adjourn till the 24th itstant, when the National Assembly was appointed to meet, and that until that day the executive should be empowered to act. Mr. E. JONES objected to the motion being put, on the ground that it was out of order. The CHAIRMAN decided that it was in order. The motion having been seconded, Mr. E. JONES said that he had heard that the petition of the six millions of the people had been treated with contumely by the House of Commons, and he recom- mended that the Convention should now proceed to its second step, viz., to memorialize the Queen, Mr. BUCKLEY thought that the Convention ought not to adjourn until they had had some explanation from Mr. O'Connor as to the reasons which bad led him to decline bringing forward the subject of the People's Charter to-night, according to his previous intention. Mr. KIDD said that he thought, from the statements . which had been made to the House with respect to the' number of signatures to the petition, that it was the; duty of every delegate to inform the Convention of the. number of the signatures attached to the petition in their re►pective districts. Mr. CUFFAY said that it would be perfect cowardice for them to adjourn; they were sent there to remain until the Charter was the law of the land, or the National Assembly had met. For his part, he hurled defiance at'. the attempts of the Government to pur them down. Mr. CLARK said that nothing could bring greater con tempt upon their cause than the constant declaration of the delegates that they were ready to die upon the scar•! told or in the dungeon, and he trusted that no more such' declarations would be made. Their friend Mr. Cuffay was most notorious for such kind of declarations ; in fact, to use language similar to what had been applied to Mr. Hume in another House, he was a "chartered libertine."—(Mr. Coffey here rose, and in the most grotesque manner acknowledged the compliment by a very low bow.) With respect to the danger of staying in London, he did not think that that was so great. Many of the delegates knew by experience of the treadmills in Lancashire, that the country magistrates were by far the greater tyrants than the magistrates of London. Mr. DONOVAN said that he• thought Mr. Clark, in re. ferring to the ♦iolent speeches of the honourable dele; gate (Mr. Cutfay) was as great a fool as Air. Cuffay himself. Mr. CUIPAY rose to order; the honourable delega te for Manchester was personal. Mr. LUND indulged his brother delegates with a vio: lent speech against the press in general, and the Times in particular, denouncing that journal as " the b— old thunderer and mercenary tyrant, which would write down Jesus Christ as the devil, and Lord J. Russell and the Ministers as gods." He thought it unworthy of the convention that they should take any notice of any ate tacks which it made upon them. The motion was then withdrawn. On the motion of Mr. CLARK, a deputation was apl pointed to wait upon Mr. Feargus O'Connor for the purpose of requesting his immediate attendance at the Convention, or to render an explanation of his conduct with respect to the course he had stated it was his in tention to adopt in the House of Commons tonight upon the subject of the Charter. The cabs were announced to be at the door wait ing to convey the deputation to Dir. Feargus O'Con nor, when that gentleman made his appearance amid loud cheers. Silence having been restored, Mr. F. O'Coteston stated that he had come down to the Convention fur the purpose of giving a correct account of what took place in the House last night upon the National Petition The Honourable Member then proceeded to state that after transact ing the routine business in the House, the report of the Committee on Public Petitions was brought up, the par ticulars of which had already appeared. He (Mr. O'Connor) had been subjected to a great amount of insult in the House last night from one gentleman in particular, who had, however, in a very creditable and honourable manner to himself, apologised for his con duct. That gentleman had used language in the excite ment of debate for which, in calmer moments, he had apologised. He (Mr. O'Connor) had explained himself with respect to his position in the House, and with re spect to his own p os i t i on as a gentleman, after which he left the House, and sent his friend, Mr. Jones, down with a letter to M r . C r i pps, appointing that gentleman as his friend to act with th e tr i end of Mr. Cripps i n t h e matter. Mr. Cripps, howev er , could not leave the H ou se, and was not of course li a bl e for any charge i n not an swering Mr. Jones, as he w as b ound by the House t o remain there until the wh o l e b usiness had conc l u ded. Mr. O'Connor was then served with a Spea k er ' s order to attend in his plac e . He thou g ht it would be something like cowardice upon hi s part if he c omplied with that order, and refused t o attend. At a quarter -p a st ten he wasarrested by the Deputy S e rgeant at-Arms , a n d taken down by him t o t h e House, where M r . Cripps, in the most gentlem an l y manner, ma de an apology for having used any unparliamentary lang uag e, and which one gentleman sh ou ld not use to ano ther. He had moved for the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the petition, but that motion had been refused, and they would not give him an opportunity of verifying the signatures. He could assure the Convention thaA such was the howli ng an d bellowing i n t h e House last night, that if an angel were to come down from heaves and mention the Charter he might as well attemp t to g et a hearing as a sweep would. The whole was a Govern went trick, and it was cleverly done, for the pu r p ose of enabling many Ho n . Members, who otherwise would have voted for the p e ti t i on, to have a loophole to creep out of. He had not last night a single Hon. Member who was in his favour —the whole House was against him—and it struck him that, as the Government had played this trick upon him, he would play an other trick upon them, and place th em i n a very aw kward "fix." For this purpose he proposed that he would not bring forward the subject to-night, in the excited state of the House, and that he would leave the petition between the Go vernment and the country, and between the Committee and the petitioners. The Convention would then be able to tell the people of England to inundate the House of Commons, not with one large petition., but to send peti tions to every Member in the House, and whoever might send a petition let them see that it was properly signed, and that no filthy or brutal nam e s should be placed upon it. With respect to the House of Commons, he believed that if he were out of the House, the name of the Charter would not be heard within its walls, except perhaps by , Mr. G. Thompson. He requested t h e Co n v ention ; he in would do so expressions, and he required bfrronmging o n the Convention motion their t e o l r mt i t after t e e Easter, approval name,and sanction o jeopardisefor not their tb e c ause by any rash b. hat had happened in the ofthe ch sli t b h j e ect better course would with their pea. thew Committee reall y th ough t ight, in consequence House. If the majority of that h© ought to bring on al though he thought that mu be to allow the e r n es until n when they wou ld 1 tions. Mr. F. O'Connor. M. WEST then moved that do agree motion. Mr. E.

MEMORIAL TO THE QUEEN. Mr. E. JONES then gave notice of his intention to m ere the propriety of drawing up a memorial to the Quern, praying her to di,miss her present Ministers an d to dis st•dve the present Parliament . Mi. O'CoNNou had muc h p leasure in seconding the motion. There never was such a rabid press as the press of the present time. The Morning Chr on i c l e was the most rabid of any of the p a p ers a gainst the Charti s t s . It thought that was now, such he conduct was but a s h a bb y return to the people of England for ba ckin g h im in his endea vours to obtain a seat in Parliament. Mr. DONOVAN wished to know whether the memorial was intended. to be taken in procession or not, as he thought that the peop l e ought not to be again disap pointed. Mr. CUPPA.Y rose to order. The subject vvas only brought forward as a not ice o f motion, and n o t as e motion. COURT CIRCULAR. The Que,•n and Prince Albert took an airing in the drives of Osborne on Wednesday afternoon.

Mr. KIDD then moved that each memb er of the dele gation should report the number of signatur es attached to the petition in their respective districts. Mr. E. JONES said that he believed so f ar f rom the verynumbers considerably be i go v e u r stated, they would b e f ound to be tod. Mr. J. 11AANE! suggested tkat in orde r t o test the APRIL 14 1848. • 7 numbers of the signatures to the petition, every person who had signed should enroll himself as a member of the " Working Man's National Guard," and that would be the most convincing argument which they could adopt for the Government. Until he knew what was the real .trength of their party, he certainly would not risk his .)%Nii life nor the lives of the people. When he found their numbers to be sufficiently strong, he would go with the p. ople at any and all risks to himself. Mr. ADAMi said that he believed that the petition eou:d have been signed by double the number which were attached to it. adopting Mr. Sita,w said that he did n o t see an y uco .n any further measures on the subject. He did not believe that any concession could be obtained from the present rotten and corrupt Government. Ile advised the poo leto prepare themselves to shake off the yoke by other means, or prepare to be eternal slaves. Mr. C. CLlttitu, was not in favour of any more Petitioning. His motto was " Onwards, onwards, from conquering to conquer."

Mr. LINNEY said that he C s h li a ll rte w r a s by o moral P r a i had himself written hun dreds of names to the petition, but his reason for doing so was, because there were hundreds who could not sign their own names. Mr. DostovAN aid that Lord John Russell had so far demeaned himself as to allude to the proceedings at this Convention. They were bow thus placed upon equal terms—this House noticed the proceedings of that other House, and if the Noble Lord found fault with their not fighting with him when he was prepared, perhaps he would yet have the opportunity, when he was not so tully prepared as he was upon the last occasion. An amendment was proposed to the effect that if Lord J. Russell would grant the Charter, if he were satisfied that the number of signatures were geauine, this Con genuine. J. HARNEY proposed that the question b e not v ention would undertake to prove th at they were Mr. en tertained at all. This amendment was agreed to by a large majority. The Convention then adjourned at Eleveu o'clock. MEETING of REFORM MEMBERS. - A meeting of Members of the House of Commons was held yesterday, at 14, St. James's-square, at which it wa3 unanimously resolved—" That it appeare to this meeting that a more cordial understanding and co-ope ration are urgently required among such members as are favourable to the extension of the suffrage, an equitable arrangement of taxation, a reduction of expenditure, and the general advance of Reform principles through out Great Britain and Ireland; that Joseph Hume, 11,P., be chairman; that Richard Cobden, M.P., be deputy chairman; that Sir Joshua Walmsley, M.P., be hono rary secretary; and that the committee have power to add to their numbers." The requisition calling the meeting was signed by the following Members of Parliament :—Joseph Hume, R. Cobden, R. Osborne, Sir William Molesworth, Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart, Henry Salwey, William Jackson,' John Williams, G. F. Muntx, William Fagan, George Thompson, J. Pattison, William Ewart. W. J.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,000 bales, 3,500 of which were American, at 40. to Sid per lb. Railway Shares were firm, and a fair busi ness was done, but there was no actual improvement in prices. The further decline in the French Funds has cause renewed apprehension of unfavourable events in the pro vinces, which seem to be dissatisfied with the Provisional Government or with. , their commissaries. Even the national workshop chimera does not go down as well as was expected, the requisite amount of cash for paying exorbitant wages not being forthcoming, and the plan for appropriating the railways seems to be scouted by the companies interested. From Belgium there appears to be nothing of interest. Trade in that country still continues very depressed. The Corn Market is very flat this morning, and there is but little business doing. Attention is sought to be directed to the position of the port of Cochin, on the coast of Malabar, once so flourishing under the dominion of the Dutch, but reduced to a mere military station since it came into the posses sion of the Hon. East India Company. Since the trading monopoly of the latter no longer exists, the jea lousy which has interfered with the prosperity of Cochin must have also passed away ; and the arguments adduced in a memorial from the British merchants of Cochin, in favour of an assimilation of the duties on the produce of the native states of Travancore and Cochin, with those levied on articles the growth and manufacture of Mysore, are important and well deserv ing of notice at head-quarters. Perhaps, however, the most important point is in connexion with the cotton question, and upon this we take some of the remarks of Mr. F. C. Brown, of Tellicherry, whose father was the first and oldest English proprietor of land in South India. This gentleman states that— " The only thing that now remains to be done, in order that the export of excellent cotton to England may begin immediately, and increase indefinitely from a new and convenient port in India, is, that the Company should suffer cotton to be grown throughout their ad jacent populous, industrious, and fertile territories, on the same footing of freedom from tax and duty; as This freedom, is grown in th e U n i te d S ta t es o f Ath er i ca . freedom, and this alone, can now arrest the annihilation of the cotton trade of India. It has ' long been evident to all men who are acquainted with the subject, and are capable of tr ac i ng th e affects they see to th e true cause, that it is the possession, unmolested ,by any Govcru interference, of the, freedom of growth and of trade in this article, which, in despite of the great cost and i has enabl e d the Unitedn c St r e a s i n g scantiness of slave labour, to augment their producttiotens firnomthea s f p e w ace po o n f o s d ix e ty w y e - i e g a h rs t in 1786, to 760 million po unds in 1846 ( two m i ll i ons of bales of 3801bs. each), and t o sup plant the cotton of India in all the markets of the wor ld by a superior, and consequently, a really cheaper artic le. The Americans have been strenuously and mos a t eff ectually seconded in the gigantic efforts they have be,.n making c throughout the period, to cause the. supply toeei:he pace with the energy, i ergy, the mer -1 demand created chiefly by the cap ital , skill, the invention, and the i ngenu i ty of B chants, manufacturers and operatives, and by the reve nue system of the East India Company , which re n d ers it impossible that the native grower in India s h ould be able to compete with the American on anything like a footing of equality, and produce cotton as cheaply, as abundantly, and as good as he can." The Account in Consols has been settled in a manner which, considering the great fluctuation that has oc curred, is highly satisfactory. There have been private arrangements and compromises, but so few in pr portion to the immense business done, and the fluctuation of 10 per cent. in the quotations, that they deserve but a passing remark. A great deal of stock has been loaned to the brokers, and this has enabled the Bears to fulfil their contracts. Coniols have been 82k, and since down to 821 4. The New Three-and-a Quarter per Cents, have been 824 to 811. Bank Stock is worth 1844 to 187 ; and India Stock 228. Exche quer-bills have realised 38s. to 41s. premium. The intelligence of the Danish victory has not had much effect here. In the Foreign Funds'there has been more business. Spanish Five per Cent.

Yesterday the twentieth anniversary of this most charitable institution was celebrated by a public dinner at the London Tavern; the Earl of Harrowby in the chair. Upwards of 200 gentlemen joined in the festivi ties of the evening, which were conducted on a scale of great magnificence. After the usual loyal toasts, The Noble CHAIRMAN said he now rose to propose " Prosperity to the Royal Free Hospital." It was true that they had their ragged schools for the destitute in education, and the Royal Free Hospital had been very fitly designated the ragged hospital for the sick and diseased.—(Cheers.) Yes, many who would not offer themselves at the portals of their ancient hospitals were not ashamed to come forward in their squalidness and misery and offer themselves to the inspection and kind reception of the authoriries at the London Free Hos pital.—(Cheers.) London, however, had not only the fluctuations of a great metropolis, but also of a great - sea - port • and therefore institutions o f thi s ki n d were , es sentially necessary.—(Hear.) Never was there a time even when the people of this metropolis suffered more thhn at present from deadness of trade and the influx of ragged, helptess creatures; and for the unfortunate he could also say, that never was there a time when misery and distress were borne with so much patience as at pre sent.—(Hear, hear.) Yes, in north and south, instead of showing itself in a rebellious or improper spirit, the most lamentable distress had been borne with the greatest fortitude, and therefore it became all those whom he addressed to show that they were willing to yield to patient distress what they could not reconcile with their Bence of independence to yield to impatient or menacing importunity.—(Loud cheers.) The Noble Lord then proceeded to read the statistics of the hospital for the past year, showing that 22,000 persons had been Since re lieved, whilst many of the incumbrances of the institu tion had beenfr from upwards of 5 cleared 0tr.. 00. 1846 1t0 the little debt moreh had t beenthan reduced .4tio/. ; within h and hi , it t wase x confidently net three expected, would be liquidated months.—(Cheers.) He hoped, therefore, notwithstanding the pressure on every class of the community, more especially the mer. cantile class, they would show their approval of the operations of the society by subscribing liberally to wards its funds.—(Cheers.) " Prosperity to the Royal Free Hospital." The following were amongst the subscribers :—Lord Skelmersdale, 5/ ; Lord Southampton, 10 guineas; Lord Ashburton, 10/.; Lord Ellesmere, 10/.; James Harmer, Esq., 10 guineas; Lionel Lloydd, Esq.

REMOVVALI NOFDTSROooIstra..--TThelU2dlD im A en Y t 1 which arri ve d h ere on Friday to do duty during the 6 1 Reg of Foot, absence of the Coldstream Guards in London, left yes terday evening for Chertsey, en route to Winchester, under the command of Colonel Reede. The order for their removal arrived so unexpectedly, that within an hour of its being received by the commanding officer, the regiment was on its march. The mess, which had been prepared for the officers at the White Hart Hotel, was consequently obliged to be abandoned. The 2d batta lion of the Coldstream Guards, commanded by Colonel Upton, returned to the Infantry Barracks yesterday evening from the metropolis. The four squadrons of the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), under the command of Col. Bouverie. also arrived from London last evening, and took up their quarters at the Cavalry Barracks, relieving the Royal Bucks Yeomanry, who had been quartered there since Friday last. The two troops of yeomanry, commanded by Major Lucas, marched last evening for Amersham. The three troops of Bucks Yeomanry, which have been stationed at Hounslow Barracks, under the command of the Duke of Buckingham (accompanied by the Marquis of Chandos), are expected to be re lieved this morning by the 12th Lancers. During the stay of the 62d at Windsor, the whole of the men were permitted to inspect the State apartments at the Castle, and also the Round Tower. ARRIVAL OP THE DUCHESS OF KENT.— The Duchess of Kent took her departure from Clarence House, St. James's, yesterday, between twelve and one o'clock, and proceeded to Claremont to pay a ♦isit to the Count and Countess de Neuilly, with whom her Royal Highness stayed luncheon. The Duchess, attended by Lady Auguata Bruce and the Baroness de Speth, reached Frogmoro yesterday evening. Colonel Sir George Couper arrived at Frogmore this morning from London. SALE OF RENTERS' SHARES IN THE ROYAL ITA LIAE OPERA AND DRURY-LANE THEATRE. —yesterday Mr. Robins disposed of, by auction, at the Auction Marc a renter's share, secured upon the Royal Italian Opera at Covent-garden. It originally cost 5001, and the in come had been reduced from 251. to 12/. 10s. a year, which was its present value.

Amongst other things, the petition alleges that they view with alarm those provisions of the Act which subject the municipal and local authorities to the control of Govern ment inspectors and central commissioners ; that they are not encouraged by the poor-law to desire any further extension of the 33 t,in of centralization ; that they regard the present manner of influencing the proceedings of ton councillors by an appeal to thtir elective eon stituency, the burgesses of the town, as a better, satyr, and more constitutional check than any appeal to the irresponsible commissioners in London, Mt 17% 28% 17- ono a LA 74 9% 3% 43 25% Ci 97% -.9% 116 1 , 11 3% 20% 22% - fi% 94 29% 27% 10 7T 44 253 6V 1% F
