The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any Man hood, class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short. every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical ati d academic honours at home S u arantes that those who ma and abroad, is In itself a sufficient Y place themselves under his care Will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and Inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these Cases.

UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, Established by Act of Parliament in 1834. No. 8, Waterloo Place, Pall Mall, London. The distinctive features of the Company ,embrace, amongst others: Tables of Premiums formed on the lowest scale compatible with security, and constructed to meet the various wants of assurers, and every risk to which protection by assurance can be extended. One-half the Life Premium for the first Five years may remain on credit. Loans granted on approved Personal Security. Assured not restricted in their limits of travel, as in most other Companies, but may proceed from one part of Europe to another in decked vessels, without License, and to British North America, and many parts of the United States, without extra premium, by merely giving the ordinary notice to the Office in London of the intended visit. Whole-world Policies granted at slightly increased rates of Premium, thus rendering a Policy in money transactions a real security. - - Prospectuses, and every information, may be obtained upon appii• cation to the Resident Director. T HE DEPOSIT and GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY. Chief Office, 22, Moorgate-street, London. The new and peculiar feature of this Company is the Deposit Sys tem of Assurance, combining the advantages of a Savings' Bank with a Life Assurance Company. By this plan a person may invest any sum, from 11. upwards, and, without any further payment, at once secure a Policy for a certain amount commensurate with the age of the party and the amount deposited. He may also increase his payment, and thereby increase his assurance, decrease it by with drawing any sum at any time, or he may draw eut all he has paid in. For example :—A person, aged T wenty-five, depositing 101. with the Company, will at once secure a Policy for 261. 12s. 3d., payable at death, whenever it should happen, with full power to increase, decrease, or draw oul the 10/. he has deposited. The humblest indi vidual may, therefore, reap many of the advantages of ordinary Life Assurance, and, at the same time, possess all the facilities of a bank ing account. Detailed Prospectuses, in illustration of the peculiar features and advantages of the Deposit System, with Tables by F. G. P.

MALTA, SEPT. 24.-Yesterday the Triton arri v ed from Corfu, bringing the large amount of 73 invalids from the lonian Islands, under command of Captain Smith, 30th Regiment. She had also 12 prisoners, seven of whom were under sentence of transportation, and five to be , diamissed with ignominy. Sickness of a fatal nature prevails, and numbers die daily—principally of smallpox and malignant fever, the latter carryidg off its victim in to 45. hours. The lonian .Assembly.had been dissolved, to meet again in 1854. I inclose you the Lord High Com missioner's speech, by which you will gain a clear insight into the cause. Sir H. Ward himself had left Corfu for Constantinople, and would not return before the 29th proximo. Mr. Stafford had arrived at Corfu by the Fury on the Bth, and on the 10th had left for England by Trieste. The Modesto had reached Corfu from Athens, and, with the Scourge steam-frigate, was lying there when the Triton left. The Peninsula and Oriental Company's steamer Madras arrived this morning from the Levant. The following diary of the movements of the fleet is not generally known here :- 9tn. The Tiger, from Malta, joined the fleet. 14th. After a succession of calms, and when off Falconers, the Britannia and the Albion were taken in tow by the Firebrand; the Bellerophon and the Trafalgar by the Tiger ; the Vengeance and the Phaeton were unassisted by steam. 15th. The Fury, detached on the 7th for Corfu, rejoined, and was immediately sent off to Athens. 17th. Came to anchor in Voulah-bay, having been towed about 300 miles. Found a Turkish frigate, with Admiral Slade's flag, two brigs, and a schooner. Sa lutes exchanged. 19th. The Fury rejoined, from Athens, and shortly after the Vengeance and the Phaeton. 20th. The Tiger has been detached to the Greek islands, and will be absent three or four days. Admiral Dundas and all the captains visited Admiral Slade yesterday. His Turkish title is Muchaver Pasha. We shall remain till about the 27th, when we shall leave for Athens, thence to Corfu, and about the middle of November shall reach Malta. A Russian brig, the Orpheus, from Athens, reached port this morning. The Sampson steam-frigate, last from Malaga, arrived also this morning, and will proceed to morrow to join the Admiral, carrying dispatches. The Resistance troop-ship, with Captain Good enough's Company of Royal Artillery, to relieve that of Captain Ommanney here, also arrived yesterday. A few days ago the non-commissioned officers of Major Shone's company, who on their arrival in Maki received some attentions from those of Captain Oal manney's company, entertained them to dinner as a requital in some respects, and in proof of the cordi ality and good feeling that has existed between them. The evening passed off with every demonstration of kindly feeling and in the moat agreeable manner. Capt,iin Branding, Adjutant of the loyal Horse Artillery, and Lieut. A. King are among the passen' gers by the Resistance, baying obtained sick leave o absence. SIINSET.—The Medina, with the India mails, has not b-en signalised up to the moment of sunfire. She is quits due. WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 29.—The Medina, with Indian Mail, expected since the 24th, only arrived at 4} A.M. The only matter of interest since my last is an act of high police exercised by the Governor, supposed to have acted in this instance under the influence of the Austrian and Naples Consuls ; it is no less than the ordering Mr. A. Lemny, late secretary to Kos suth, to leave the island within fifteen days. The Governor has refused to give any reason, so that be yond a surmise that it is owing to Lemny' having published a book in which he has been reviewing the state of the Continent as regards the elements of revolution in Europe, nothing is known. The power to send away foreigners, without assigning any mo tive, rests in Government by an Act of 1843, and was largely availed of during the reign of More O'Ferrall, but it is painful to see is resorted to by Colonel Read. The Spitfire screw steam-ship has just made her number. She is coming in from the west. APPOINTMENTS. Woomvica, OCT. 4.—Commander —Henry Need ,1848), to command the Linnet gun brig, CantniS• sioned this day at Devonport. Mate—Graham J, Eden (1850), to the Rodney, at Devonport. The Terrible steam-frigate, Captain James Hope, C.B , is to be paid off at this port on Saturday next. She is at present in the river, having her paddle floats and the outer rim of the paddle wheels taken off, pre vious to her being taken into the basin to have a thorough refit before she again proceeds to sea. The Blazer steam-vessel was taken down the river on Friday last fr om D e ptf or d t o Woolwich, and the Monkey steam-v esse l l e ft W oo lwich this afternoon with the Blazer i n t ow f or Sheerness, where the Blazer will be taken i n c h arge o f by Mr. AYlen• master attendant at that port, and be will proceed with the Cyclops steam-frigate and her to the Clyde, as the Blazer is to receive on board the machinery of the engines of 780-horse power, made by Napier for the Duke of Wellington, 140, screw steam-ship, late th e Windsor Castle. The Cyclops and Blazer will bring the engines in pieces, and they will be put on board the Duke of Wellington at Portsmouth, " These steps will not involve the guardians in any great outlay, and the board do not consider it neces sary that they should at present incur any additional expense by adopting other measures than those sug gested in this circular. " The board request the guardians to take especial care that their workhouse is in due and proper condi• tion, as regards the ventilation, drainage, warmth, and general repair of the building, that there is no cxces# inmates over the prescribed number, and that no ward II improperly crowded. It appears also desir able that the guardians should bear in mind those articles in the general consolidated order, which em power - them to make changes' in the diet of the in mates as occasion may render necessary. " They heg, in' conclusion, to assure the guardians that, in, carrying the suggestions of this circular into effect, they may rely on receiviog,fram this board all such advice and assistance as they may be able to render.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, " W. G. LUMpE; Assistant Secretary. • " Poor-law Board, Whitehall, Sept. 30, 1852." SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIMES.—The present situation of the Burmese war, if war it can be called where there is no resist ance on the one side and scarcely any fighting on the other, is a paradox with which we might not venture to interfere, were it not that the army itself engaged tied the public opinion of India happen to be with us. In & region where war is usually a succession of boll strokes, and where the difficulties of the climate and of the Asiatic character can only be met by the ut most celerity and decision, mail after mail tells the same invariable. story—a large British force under General Godwin, in the best possible position, with abundance of material, with the largest fleet ofj steamers ever collected in that hemisphere, with The native population not merely unresisting but con spiring and assisting--yet that force doing nothing at all. There is war, to be sure, for there are soldiers and warlike apparatus, there are deaths by the climate, and there is an expenditure of a quarter of a million a month ; but there the war ends, for there is no marching, no collision, no bloodshed, no conquest, no satisfaction for injuries received, or anything, in fact, for which the war has been undertaken. But the absurdity does not end here. The Irrawaddy is the Nile of the Burmese Empire, its whole and sole thoroughfare, and commanding the whole country. Like the Nile, it is navigable much higher up during its annual flood, and, therefore, must be taken in time, or the opportunity is lost till another year. General Godwin literally stops the way. He chokes up the passage. Every means have been employed to push him, to draw him, to propel, to attract, to set him in motion some way or other. The Governor-General has steamed from Calcutta to give him a shove from behind ; Captain Tarleton has steamed up the Irrawaddy, passed strong batteries, taken the city of Prome, and captured fifty cannon, with only the loss of one man, in order to show the General the way. Yet all is in vain. There are people who will follow, and there are people who can be driven. General Godwin belongs to neither class. He is simply in the way. Really this expedition of Captain Tarleton with his steam flotilla up to Prome reduces the war—that is, General Godwin's share in in—to the level of an Adelphi burlesque. The gallant captain steams up the river half-way to Ava, and only regrets that his instructions do not allow him to go all the way and finish the war o ff his own hook. However, he does a good deal of work with most ridiculous facility. The enemy, from either cowardice or sheer stupidity, pre pares to contest one arm of the stream, and the captain steams up the other. He arrives at their city, and finds them all gone on the above fool's errand ; so in their absence he occupies the city at his leisure. He destroys their iron cannon, and puts the brass ones on board ; his crew take long walks into the country without seeing a soldier; the popu lation welcome them, help them to destroy the can non, and wish them to stay. Time being up, the Captain returns home, doing a little business on the way with the so-called enemy—that is, putting an other lot of their cannon on board his steamers. It reads, for all the world, like Baron Munchausen storming a battery and coming off with a sixteen pounder under each arm; yet, strange as it reads, it is all simple fact. Captain Tarleton returns to his chief, and says, " Here you see, General, we have gone up and down all the way, and come back safe and sound. To certify that we have really been to Prom., here is all the enemy's artillery. Can't you do " the same?" The General is not to be stirred. Though seeing, they say, is believ ing, he sees the passage of the river done, but does not believe it. What can be the principle, or motive, or rule of such conduct? The truth is General Godwin was in the last Burmese war, In those days they bad no steamers, and he will have none now. In those days the army marched cross country, and through swamps, forests, and all sorts of impassable places. They shall do so now. In those days more than half the army perished by disease, famine and fatigue. It shall do so now. Everything by precedent—marching, bush-fighting, stockade -storming, starving, sickening, dying—all by rule, according to the best received authorities. It appears to be wholly forgotten that if experience has its use within proper limits, it becomes worse than useless when it rejects all the new means and appli ances of war because they are out of its sphere. General Godwin may have a very lively recollec tion of the former Burmese war, but he is evi dently unaware of the revolution in river warfare which steam has brought about. Oriental warfare is a race against time, and we have already suffered ourselves to be beaten by several months in this instance. During that period, though the deaths in battle have been few, yet, there is the usual obituary of victims to the climate, and by this time we have lost as many as if we had fought a great battle, and only just won it. But the worst remains. General Godwin is waiting for the assemblage of a large force at Pegu, to consist of more than 20,000 men—that is, six regiments of European foot, twelve regiments of native infantry, and a full complement of artillery, besides sappers and miners. These are expected to be ready next month, and in December the General thinks the soil and the climate will be fit to commence the long march from Rangoon to Ave, some 500 miles or more. Can any reasonable person doubt that half of these will perish on the way if the Burmese only take the ordinary methods of retarding the advance of the invaders, and so availing themselves of their best ally, their own climate ? Does anybody doubt that a fifth of this force will be more efficient if transported in steamers than the whole of it toiling on foot? If Tarleton did so well with five steamers, what might be done with eleven, the amount of force under the commodore's orders? The preference of the land route over that which nature and art have combined to give us in a fine navigable river and the possession of steamers is about as rational as the humour of au old lady who in 1852 should insist on posting up from Durham to London in her old family coach and four, instead of doing it at a tithe of the cost, a tithe of the time, and ten times as much comfort by rail. But this really is the most favourable estimate of the old General. We trust there is nothing worse than prejudice in this singular and, perhaps, fatal inaction. Unfortu nately, it admits of another interpretation. It is said that General Godwin is rather over-anxious to monopo lize the glory of the approaching conquest, and desires no river squadron, no steamer, no commodore, to di vide the prize. It is impossible to ascribe to him a jealousy so discreditable and so insane ; but equally impossible to account for his taking up his residence at Rangoon from any rational reason. Is there no term to such an error ? If the Governor-General is so con cerned at the spectacle as to have come from Calcutta to ask the reason, why cannot he cut the knot alto gether ? He cannot. Though General Godwin is his choice, it appears he must refer home for the set tlement of any difference that may arise. To all the purposes of the present war it appears that the Gene ral is omnipotent. Indeed, we know not whether to wish him to move by this time, for if he perseveres in his plan of refusing the aid of the river, we all know the continual decimation his army will suffer. General Log at Rangoon will only be exchanged for General Stork in his congenial forests and marshes. CHRONICLE.—The progress of the Prince Pre sident through the south of France hes worn, from the first, the aspect of a journey undertaken for the sole purpose of canvassing the suffrages of the people. Since he was already in possession of an authority inferior only in name to that of the most absolute monarchs, there is every ground for supposing that the obvious explanation of his intentions is the true one. From the date of the coup (Taut, Louis Napo leon has wielded uncontrolled power, and the Empire alone remains to tempt his ambition. For the realiza tion of that object it may fairly be concluded that the triumphal march through the provinces, and the solemn entry into the southern cities, were designed. From the language of functionaries who are vying with each other in expressions of devotion to the bead of the State, as well as from the ceremonial observed by persons who may be presumed to act under official prompting, it is difficult to draw any other inference than that the assumption of the Im perial crown is to be his next step. The tele graphic announcements made to the Minister, of the Interior and the deportment of the Presiden hirnself, seem equa ll y t o po i nt to the Empire as the legitimate denouement of a melodrame more extrava. gant than was ever conceived by the fertile brain even of Alexandre Dumas. The official Moniteut tells us of the enthusiastic reception which has beet accorded to Louis Napoleon at every Point of his progress. It is true that less partial obse-rvere ques tion the unanimity and .the sincerity of the demon strations so pompously recorded ; but, be that a it may, there can be little mistake with regard to the wishes of those who surround the President. They have systematically set themselves to assure the world that wherever their master has shown himself the establishment of the Empire is the prevalent idea Of the population ; and Europe is daily culled upon ,to believe that, whilst the coup d'etat was necessary for the interests of the "Party of Order" throughout the Continent, the restoration of the Imperial dynasty is no less essential to gratify the national feeling of the French people. We may, perhaps, be reluctant to admit the truth of either proposition. These asser tions are but the pretexts upon which it is hoped that the further development of the existing systenl of Government may be justified or palliated; but the event can no longer be considered doubtful. Under present circumstances, the mere assumption of the Imperial purple is not perhaps, in itself, a matter of very great importance. The power of the head of the State cannot be enlarged —the degradation of France cannot be made more complete. Louis Napoleon cannot invent either a new pleasure or a new poli tical crime—his tyranny cannot be made more uni versally operative than it is. Neither France nor her Pleeident would feel the effects of the contemplated change. Nor is it very material to the other Powers of Europe by what title the virtual Sovereign of France may choose to be addressed. :Whether or not-he wears the Imperial crown and beari - upon his shoulders a mantle adorned with bees, Ili scarcely a matter of vital moment. Such questions are, as Lord John Russell would say, exclusively for the consi deration of the French nation. Foreign States are not concerned either with the political forms or with the Court etiquette of France. If thirty-six millions of people, for some inscrutable reason, choose to submit' to the most tyrannical of despotisins, their neighbours have no right to feel themselves ag grieved, however deeply they may lament the retro gression of a country which has already tested by experience the value of constitutional G overnment. But whilst the particular form which the existing tyranny may assume is a matter of secondary mo ment, both to the French people and to their neigh bours, the thing itself—the vast amount of p ower lodged in the hands of an individual apparently un restrained by the most elementary obligations of mo rality—constitutes a source of danger which cannot be too carefully watched. If we were to jud ge f rom the present apathy of France, we might infer that she was willing to submit for a time to certain evils, rather than fly to others that she knows not of, and again attempt the task of framing a free constitu tion. For minds, however, which neltherphilo sophy nor suff e ri ng h as schooled to this pitch of indifference, the present situation cannot but be alarming. At thi s moment the whole mili tary and naval resources of a nation possessing unequalled facilities for aggression, are at the sole disposal of an individual whose religion is false hood, and whose most approved weapon is perjury. Here is a man who violated the pledge which he gave to Louis Philippe as the condition of receivi ng hi s liberty —who threw to the winds the vows, false as dicer? oaths, which be made before the Assembly— and who calmly sanctioned the massacre of his fellow citizens to gratify his personal ambition. All who have put their trust in him have been deceived. Some believed in his integrity, others relied on his want of ability; yet he has succeeded in making himself the absolute master of France, and it only rests with him to proclaim the Empire. Although a mere change of official style is scarcely worth considering, and though it signifies little whether Louis Napoleon be designated President, First Consul, or Emperor, we cannot disregard the vast resources which he wields ; nor can we forget the hostility to England which ever characterisod the Empire, and the recollection of which the " heir of Napoleon" seems anxious to revive. Ever since his accession to power there has been increased activity in all those branches of the French service which would be most available for attacking England. Ship after ship is launched at Cherbourg and Brest—an enormous naval force is kept on foot by the Government—and all this without the most shadowy pretence of danger, immediate or remote. It is believed, and not without some foundation, that the official accounts of the French navy have for months past been studiously falsified, in order to beget 1 baseless sense of security on this side of the Channel. Cause of quarrel between the two countries there is none ; but under the present regime this matters little. Large fleets are paraded before the President, and, departing for a moment from his habitual reserve, he descants on the necessity of making the Mediter ranean a French lake. In spite of his caution, he cannot conceal either his own personal wishes, or the objects to which he desires to direct the am bition of France. The files at Toulon, and the splendid naval review, augur most unfavourable , for the preservation of peace. Such signs cannot be disre garded. It is impossible to doubt that the ' heir of Napoleon" and th e claimant of the Empireis arming for a naval conflict. The character of the man an d the nature of his preparations justify the worst anti cipations, and demand the most unceasing attention on the part of our own Government. A few mon th s ago it was the fashion of British statesmen to take a most lenient view of the President and his coup d'etat. Lord John Russell, after bungling a good deal about " the broad seal of England," d ec l are d hi s belief that Louis Napoleon, in doing what h e did , h ad acted ho nestly and sincerely for th e goo d o f France. After having delivered himself —we hope not without diffi culty—of that most unworthy sentiment, his Lordship proceeded to condemn the Press of this country for the language which it h a d h e ld w i t h regard to the affairs of France and the state of our national defences. In the Upper House, the expectant Minister, Lord Derby, and his sagacious coadjutor, Lord Malmesbury, adopted the same strain, and severely critcised those organs of public opinion which had spoken freely and honestly on the two great topics of the day. In spite, however, of that criticism, nothing is more certain than that everything which has since occurred, fully bears out the judgment of the London press, and not that of our over-courteous statesmen. The President has established a perfect despotism; and, from what is taking place in the arsenals and dockyards of France, it is high time that this country , should be made aware of its defenceless state, and in sist on the immediate adoption of proper precautions. Neither we nor any of our contemporaries are anxious to suffer the fate of Cassandra, and we trust that our efforts may prove successful in warning even those who affect to sneer at us, or who, like Lord Malmesbury, complain of our want of information. We only wish that that noble man was duly qualified to judge cf the value of the intelligence obtained by the English journals. If so, he would be a more efficient, and, perhaps, a more grammatical Minister. But in ono respect his repu tation is safe—no one will ever suspect of intrigue or treachery a man who is so obviously unfitted to con duct the most ordinary business. We doubt not that he is as honest as be is incompetent—and that is say ing a great deal. But we confess ourselves not a little alarmed that the Foreign-office should be so feebly administered at a time when European politics wear an aspect of peculiar difficulty, and when England is obviously threatened by the unscrupulous policy of the French President. DAILY NEWS.—The legend tells us that Friar Bacon wished to surround Britain with a wall of brass as a protection against intrusive foreigners. As we have managed to do very well without the wall of metal, the chance is that the failure of the arch-con ' juror was no such great misfortune after all. A point of much greater importance to us is, that a portion of our countrymen, who have bad the power us th an and the will to inflict much more evil upcn l any equal number of foreigners could, have o t nge9- joyed a protection from the punishment th eir iniquity as secure as that afforded by a of brass or any other material. The difference in the two cases is, that whereas the . Friar intended . to wall foreigners out, the metaphorical wall which we have alluded to has served t h e purpose of walling h ones t Englishmen in, and preventing them f rom overstep ping a boundary which separates th em f rom foes of their own blood. I n plain English, the state of the law has been such that a justlyfraudulent debtor, whose would have been sacrificed to propertysatisfy the demands of his creditors, if he remained in England, had nothing to do but to evade the service of a writ by crossing the Cha nne l, an d hi s person wo uld become invi olable, and his property intact. By stepping out of the kingdom be inclosed those foes, his credi▪ tors, within an i mpassa bl e b arrier. Au agent mi▪ ght transmit to him the proceeds of property he possessed here, and he would be allowed the privi lege of spending, in ele gan t i n d o l ence, once again, a fortune which, but for the protection afforded him by the defect of the law, would have been in the hands of rude, unrelenting creditors. Alas, for the change that a s li g ht u l teration in the law will make in the fates of various ingenious and interesting swindlers. A fiat bas gone forth which has produced wailing and woe in the breasts of hundreds of bad t debtors. On the 24th of October down goes the well e 1 of separation w hi c h k ep t th e eager creditor from - pouncing upon the man who has been "in his books" for years, and who intended to remain there for ever. 1 Boulogne fears something like partial depopul e ti ee, now that ono me ans o f sw i n dli ng are a b ou t to t,,a wrested from the hen& of well-dressed English scamps. Bade n and Homburg may l o ok r ue fully upon bare tables no lodger glittering with the gold transferred from the pockets of honest English tradesmen. The loungers at 13eulugue, the rattlers of dice at Baden and Homburg, are waiting with dismay the arrival of the tAtai day, the 24th inst., which will let loose upon all of them who have property in England the horrors of English law. Their irudginati on must now be peopling the shores of Albion with process-servers, all ready to spring forward when the time shall arrive. They may see with a prophetic eye the day coming when un un grateful country will no longer afford its protection to swindling absentees; they watch mournfully the sacrifice of their property to creditors whe'have no shadow of title to the same except the justice of their claims. The Act which is to effect this great change in the circumstances of the truants is entitled "An Act to amend the process, practice, and mode of pleading in the superior courts of common law at Westmin ster," &c. ; and a clause which is to bear so hardly upon the men who " can pay" but " won't pay," runs as follows:_" In case any defendant, being a British subject, is residing out of the jurisdiction of the said su perior courts, in any plac e excep t S cot l an d or Ireland, it shall b e lawful for the plaintiff to issue a writ of summons in the form contained in the schedule (A), which writ shall bear the endorsement contained in the said forme purporting that s uc h wr it i s f or ser vice out of the jurisdiction of the said superior courts, and the time for appearance by the defendant to such writ shall be regulated by the distance from Erig,iand of the place where the defiretlinfzis` residing; S:_id it shall be lawful for the court or judge upon being sa tisfied by affidavit that there is a cause of action, &c., &c., and that the writ was personally served upon the defendant, or that reasonable efforts were made to effect personal service upon the defendant, and that it came to his knowledge, and either that the defendant wilfully neglects to appear to such writ, or that he is lieing out of the jurisdiction of the said courts, in order to defeat and delay his creditors, to direct from time to time that the plaintiff shall be at liberty to proceed in the action in such manner and subject to such conditions as to such court or judge shall seem fit." Here is a successful attempt made to attack propertied swindlers in their strong holds. Heretofore a fraudulent debtor, by transfer ring his person beyond the boundary of the country, in numberless cases, preserved his property. This privilege exists no longer. A residence abroad after the 24th of October will avail but to protect the per son. As the person, however, is of no possible use to any one but the debtor himself—to whom even it is often of questionable service—all that is necessary for the protection of creditors is gained. A swindler residing beyond the sea, receives at the hand of the process-server a writ containing a message from the Queen, desiring his presence in court, and ending with the words " take notice that in default of your so doing, the said A. B. may, by leave of the court or a judge, proceed to judgment and execution." The value of this change in the law, as a protection to cre ditors, is very great. Many a fair estate which is now supplying a dissolute absentee with the means of con tinuing a course of extravagance abroad, similar to that by which be has ruined confiding tradesmen at home, will fall into the hands of its rightful posses sors—those who have supplied such present owner with goods for which they have never received an equivalent. The Act will operate, in a small way, as an Incumbered Estates Bill—only always against the will of the dishonest owners. They will now be forced to do what all honest men do without forcing— pay their debts. Tire Act is also another step in the direction of removing an unfair advantage possessed by the rich man over his poorer neighbour. Pro perty has so many natural privileges, that there is no reason why we should go out of our way to endow it with such as do not essentially belong to it. Under the previous state of the law the proprietor of land, if he chose to be dishonest, had nothing to do but to change his place of habitation, and he might indulge in his vicious propensities to his heart's con tent. His estate could be managed as well by en agent as by himself, and his person was under the protection of a foreign state, whilst cut of England he could not be served with a writ. A tradesman, on the contrary, is unable to leave the spot on which his business is carried on. If he cheats his creditors, he must pay and abide the brunt. His absence would be ruin. While the rich man, therefore, escaped the puni,hment due to his misdeeds, the poorer men was obliged to stay and suffer the penalty he had in curred. Though we are far from holding that a poor rogue should be allowed impunity because the rich rogue can purchase it, we still maintain that a state of the law which punishes roguery in rags, while it lets roguery in superfine cloth and polished boots strut free, is mischievous in the highest degree, us it impairs that reverence due to law which is the foun dation of all social order. GREAT GUNPOWDER BLAST. A monster blast by gunpowder, fired by mean s o f a galvani c b a tt ery, too k place onWednesday last at Furness quarry, on Lochfine, near Inverary. The quarry rises perpendicularly above the margin of Lochfine to a height of about 80 feet, and presents a surface to the sea of 100 feet in length. Near the centre of this face, and 30 feet inward or back from the front, a vertical shaft was driven down through the granite mountain to a depth of 60 feet from the surface. It was 3 feet 6 inches square. From the bottom of this shaft two galleries or tunnels, of equal capacity with the main shaft, ran each 17 feet in length, in a line or parallel with the quarry face. A the extremity of each of these little tunnels was placed a box containing a ton and a half of the strongest blasting powder, or, giving in separate divisions, a total charge of three tons, or 4,500 pounds. The great event on Lochfine was looked forward to with various feelings by various groups—by some with pleasurable excitement, and by others with sen timents of no small terror. The Condorrat band per ambulated the village to infuse a little pluck into the hearts of the natives. But in the majority of cases it failed ; for, about the hour mentioned, a very ex tensive emigration commenced from the district im mediately around Furness. The great mass of the lower order of Highlanders had no faith in the great blast which the big Sassenach was about to blow off in the midst of their own country. In fact, not a few of the old crones and gaffers conceived that tLe pros perity of Lochfine was to pass away with this mon strous explosion, and that the herrings would be seen no more. Accordingly, the movement was extensive —the young, the aged, and the bed-rid were carried off. But the people were not content to carry away their ancient kindred ; for not a few of them marched off with as much of their goods and chattels as they could carry. In fact, for miles around not a single soul remained near Furness, with the exception of Mr. Sim himself, his coadinters, Dud is few eoutreseous triends. Some departed in boats ; but the great majo rity betook themselves to the tops of the distant hills, where they stood in groups watching the outburst of this Highland Vesuvius. But while the natives went out, strangers poured in, and took up their stations in the vicinity, some on the land and some on the loch. When the signal gun was fired, nearly all took to the boats, and went to a wary distance on the bosom of the loch, while some of the extremely cautious sort went right across the loch, and landed on the opposite shore of Stratchur. About a quarter -past four o'clock the last signal gun was fired, announcing the c h arg ing of the b attery. But this first attempt to fire the mine failed, from the battery net being of suffi cient strength to carry the electric power along such a length of wire. The line was then shortened, and the battery carried to a spot within sixty feet of the mouth of the shaft. From this point the battery was charged, and the stroke or explosion was most effectual. By those on shore the great Mass was seen to rise suddenly, and then subside, accom panied with a d u ll no i se lik e the grow l o f distant thunder. Those on th e b oa t s i n L oc hfi ne witnessed the explosion to much more advantage. They saw the whole of th e l ower par t o f th e rock, on a line with the bottom of the shaft, belch forth a sheet of flame, and instantaneously the mountain rose, and settled down in broken masses. Clouds of smoke, the pent-up refuse of 4,500 pounds of gunpowder, rushed up from every disrupted crevice, and floated calmly away on the bosom of Lochfine. Those close a t h an d heard the sound produced by the innumerable ma sses of granite r oc k falling successful low . cThha The blast, therefore, ias - It i s computed that fro e tn ral i d ,.ooo to 8,000 tons ibeen int o o f the th e,rno quarryst racter. of granite have been torn up, varyin g i n s i ze f rom fi ve tons downwards. — Glasgow E A PROFESSIONAL DESCRIPTION OF A HORSE.—In a horse case tried at Leicester, Si r B .

REMOVAL OF NUISANCES, law Thi oa f: r l d loHl4 Circulail:asbeen issued by the Poor " Sir,—The Poor-law Board are desirous of direct ing the attention of the guardians to the provisions contained in the statutes for the removal of nuisances and the prevention of disease (11th and 12th Victoria, chap. 123, and 12th and 13th Victoria, chap. 111), so far as they relate to the powers and duties of the guardians and their officers. " The recurrence of the disease of Asiatic cholera in an epidemic form in some parts of the continent, though not sufficient to cause immediate alarm in this country, is nevertheless calculated to require a rea sonable amount of care and vigilance on the part of all those public functionaries to whom the law has en trusted authority with reference to sanitary measures for the prevention of disease. " The guardians will remember the duties which have been imposed upon them by the former statute in respect to complaints made to them- of nuisances upon private premises. Under this statute they can only act when complaints are made to them by indi vidual householders, and have no power to commence any proceedings. By the latter Act (12th and 13th Victoria, chap. 111), the guardians are enabled to take measures for the removal of nuisances in private houses or premises upon a certificate of their existence from their medical or relieving officer. • " It therefore appears to the board to be advisable that the guardians should communicate to those offi cers their desire that they should direct their imme diate attention to this subject, so that, when in the discharge of the duties of their respective offices, they Perceive that any nuisance exist, of the class and de scription to which these statutes relate, these officers may certify the same to the guardians. " The board, however, consider it most important that the attention of these officers should not be di verted fro m the full discharge of their ordinary du nd e them ties, and clist i they n ct y th at the guardians to express to i w na i t h b t eh those duties.eo u a uc t thud t a h cl e te s s e investigations and reports ssa i . n ry n .t o rou re b s l p e ec a t nd to de i l n a t y e , rf t e h re e p sonl w e he d r l e str t l h e e t ay s n " To prevent to guard iansut supply ,piers tohfetihreopffirecmerissews:thBo thatbl and m to ay itis i t n ruct them to leave copies with the findfind that mi t s nuisances o°fn or may re move veeient certifi cates, to be filled a blank f orms latter . the nuisances without the necessity of legal proceedings. .~= .1--- -- ' — z - --r---C-- C O r- c —,- C 7 - - z-t-*_ ,4 ,c_ 7 --:..,-- ..; ~ . • - f s: ' "..' 11 , 11 t „. ~ , .

Tde a r ilnwir± is copied from the' A.ppendices in the Reperf or y o f toe Conn of Aldernai,l3, on the subject, of the funeral of Lord Nelson, in the mayoralty of James Shaw, Esq., afterwards . Sit James Shaw, Bart.:— " College of Arms', Jan, 6,1806. "My Lord,--Mr. Townshend Windsor Herald,. attended at the Mansion-house to-day irr order to communicate to your Lordship a latter which-. has been addressed to me by his Grace the) Earl Marshal, and of which I have the Duke's permission to transmit to your Lordship a copy. " I sincerely hope that the dE elision upon the ques tion of precedency will be satisfactory to your Lord ship, an d t o the Corporation of the City of London. e . I have, howevt-r, not yet received any instructions the occasion, ac your Lordship yin perceive by air ceremonial, cf which I take tilt, Liberty of sending a nutr4),.r of copies herewith. nia ` u ` 1 ;,5 ti1;11g;I:et c p e ; v o e aSU o r re e' ~,o h t e t e n s ( 4 1 , b j t e o c t the of place in the procetsion c y a o rn ur . Lordship's " 11:lav e the honor,r - co : be, &e. ; " The Right fi-,n. the Girter. " Worksop, J an . 4,180 G. sit—l this day received by :the hands of Mr. Windsor Herald your letter of 2ei containing a reference from the Secretary o f St ate ' s mice, deiring my - opinion on the claim made by the Lord Mayor for rank i n th e pro c ession in the funeral 01 the late Lord Viscount Nelson, dated the lit instant. "From the hasty manner in which I have con sidered the precedents pointed out in the report .now sent in, I am of opinion that if his Majesty attend s ' in person, and it shall be his Majesty's pleasure that ee'e City sword should be borne before him by the Lord' Mayor (either with or without the sword of state)„ the placing his Lordship next the person of the King seems to arise out of the circumstance and is sanc tioned by the precedents of his Majesty's predecessors Charles I. and Charles 11., and William 111. and Queen Anne. In the procession on the accession of James 1., when the King attended in person, and the City sword was not borne, a different station was allotted to him at the funeral of Sir Philip Sydney, where the King did not attend, it seems the Lord Mayor and members of tikerieiporation closed the procession as conservators where they had the j urisdictien, giving dignity and solemnity to a ceremonial which so much interested the feelings of the English nation and its allies. "I lament I have not had more time to examine more minutely a case that relates to persons of such high consideration, and much wish for more time to reconsider it. I will immediately re pair to London, where I hope to arrive on Monday night, and request your attendance with the other Kings of Arms and Heralds at my apart ments at the College of Arms, on Tuesday, the 7th, at two o'clock, and request you will have the goodness to inform the Lord Mayor (immediately), that in case he wishes to make any communication to me on the subject, he may have the opportunity to do it before I return any answer to the reference from the office of the Secretary of State. "I am, Sir, " Your obedient humble servant, " NORFOLK, E.M; " Sir J. Heard, Garter King of Arms," &c. " Sir,—l have to acknowledge the receipt of your favour of this day, enclosing a copy of a letter from his Grace the Earl Marshal on the subject of my rank in the intended ceremonial ofLord Nelson's funeral. " As I have this day seen Mr. King, the Under Secretary of State, on the subject of the rank allotted to me, which, on a reference to his Majesty's direc tions—as far as I can understand at present, seems to accord with his Grace's feelings as Earl Marshal, and my owe, it seems hardly necessary further to trouble the Earl Marshal with a meeting on the subject; and, indeed, I have little doubt ere the re ceipt of this you will have received such instructions as will preclude the necessity of any further discussion on my part. ~~_ _ ~/,~ ~~:;_~;; ~ IC
