Shame and the dread so frequently, hut erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking f or assistance where alone it can he procured. In acting thus, he 15 rgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes o: use, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician. and to the Medical man who can show by hi..

Dr. 'A'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a taitrantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. In the Liverpool Cotton blanket yesterday the sales were 5,000 bales, at firm rates. There were 4,000 bales of American sold at 4id. to 6d. per lb. Railway shares were dull, and prices rather tended downwards. In the advices received yesterday from Buenos Ayres rather indignant allusion is made to the speech of Lord Palmerston, in which the conduct of the defaulting states was severely stigmatised ; and it is not. a little amusing to hear the allegations brought against England, and the assertion that the non-payment of the interest on Buenos Ayres stock was the result of our belligerent operations, whereas it is notorious that no dividend was paid for years before our differences with the Ar gentine Republic commenced. It is true that Rosas ' did within the last few years think proper to scrape together one or two instalments, but the exception does but prove the rule. On the other hand, we can scarcely bring ourselves to think that such advice as that given last night by Lord George Bentinck, via., to seiz , upon Cuba in indemnification of the claims of the Spanish bondholders, is at all judicious or calculated to advance the end proposed. The accounts yesterday afternoon received from Liverpool advise two additional failures of some im portance; but Messrs. Jevon, Sons, and Co., in the iron trade, have excellent assets to cover their liabilities of about 100,0001. Messrs. J. and G. Campbell and Co., in the West India trade, have debts of about 80,000/. The Money Market continues very easy, and 130,000 L in gold was received yesterday overland from Russia. The produce markets will receive a portion of the ad vantage, and the following statement concerning sugar is encouraging. It takes in the past month, however, and does not represent the more recent improvement. Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury state:— " SITGAIL—The market opened at the beginning of the past month with a steady demand for all descrip. tions, and much briskness has been experienced during the last fortnight, and an advance of from Is. to Is. 6d. has been established. Several parcels have changed hands by private contract, and, upon the whole, pros• pects are more favourable. Above 38,000 bags of Bengal and Madras have been disposed of by public sale ; finej white Benares realising 475. to 485., good 455. to 465. 6d., and. ordinary descriptions, 30s. to 415.; Madras lew to good 28s. to 361. 6d, and flue 441. 6d. to 80s. 6d., the latter being for a parcel of fine, paying the high duty. 14,000 bags Mauritius have met with good sale, and 3,000 bags were reported sold by private con tract, at the early part of the mouth ; fine has fetched 40s. to 435., and middling good 365. 6d. to 30s. 6d., low and middling 295. to 345. In Foreign Esst India 5,300 bags, &c., have been brought forward, and several sales hare been effected by private contrittr—prices have ranged from 31s. to 435." The Funds have been rather un s t ea dy' ain, and until the inteations of the Chancellor of th e ,chequer are known with respect to a funding, th e re 'II probably be no confidence in prices. It is satisfac y therefore that the financial statement is promise so early. Consols have been 884 i for transfer, and are now 884 j. Time bargains have been made at 884 to 89. Exchequer-bills have realised 335. to, 385. premium, being lower again. Bank Stock istmfirm at 200, and India Stock at 243. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 891 to 904. The chief business doing in the Foreign Market is still in Mexican Stock, which realises 16i to 19. Gre nada Bonds have been at 201, and Equador at 3i 4. Brazil Stock is worth 851. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been at 54 to 544. Railway Shares are generally rather flatter. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAT AT ONA O'CLOCK.

RAISING WATER discovered by the FOUN TAIN PUMPS, which roll the water upwards, without either frict.en or faltering, thetetore can never be surpassed ; conse quently this Is tie most important discovery ever mado for tke pre servation •f life and pmperty eit AT her SEA at Sea or on Land. namerons skips it leas already cared, aid the captains gratettilly ac knowledge the glorious results. Two testimonial extracts shall suttee : " Captaia Greig, from Quebec Hend on, states that tho Fountain Pura, being fitted ii the Caroline, Its great 'mower was the means of saving the skip and 230 souls on board, two seams in the bottom being partly left wattled calking." " The Argas brig, from Cadiz, sprang a leak whet three days oat at sea, and soon after leer *minion pump ckoakei and became use less. Captain Rutherford states all then depended upon her Fenn tain Pump, which for nineteen days and eighteen nights was in ac tion without a minute's respite, when all arrived safely in Londe', with a thank God for the Fountain ?amp." ON LAND the New Portable Fire-engines are of infinitely better service than a Ira brigade. They aot instantaneously at the outbreak of a fire. " V!e are delighted with the invention—it is a great boos to so- Aety."--Editors Liverpool Mail. The New Portable Fire-engines have preserved a large portion of Norwich front destraetion, fl,r out of eighteen different properties on Ire in and near the city, they saved eleven :olely and seen mainly, inclading in the seven the Queen's Cavalry Barracks ; and in the eleven, Messrs. liorton's dyery, and 12,8011. worth of consigned pro perty; Stoke mustard, starch, a , ul lour mills, and Messrs. Butcher's grocery warehouses, just in tine to prevent a large quantity of gun powder therein fl - oin exploding, which must bays spread Ai - said de- struotion and death. " North Walsham.—At this fire the Portable Engine was of great service, and by having one of them ready, there is no doubt but half the property now destroyed might have been saved."—Nerfelk (Aro- Mete, August 22, 1846. At a Norwich Are June 2, 1847, the two Portable Engines were the pets of the public. The cry was, feed the little engines and they will do the work, which proved true. The four large engines prescat proved useless. Portable Engines speedily prove steam-boilers to a duets atmo spheres. Now the fact is this, all former Force Pumps, Lift-tires Pumps, lift Pumps, and Chain Pumps are bad machines: they rub, grub, aid scrape the water upwards by friction, which wastes two-fifths of the power used, and progressively falter by leakage, which Drs. Young aid Hutton, with many other eminent experimenters, lamented thus :—The quantity of water actually raised by any machine seldom exceeds half the power consumed, after overcoming friction and leakage ; and notwi standing the best engineers in the world had tried in viiiirfor tw ttsand years tik abate these palpable defects in hydraulic machi leverthelese, at last the victory is won , and won for ever; for f and leakage .are now both annihilated by the new rolling : principlo in pumps, and their effect augmented from twelve to tweitty (or about seventy per cent.), and frequently with out more outlay. Most men can sustain heavy rapid pump trials for 411 seconds, but some men drop at minute time. With a best new heavy working Fric tion Pump an acive sound-winded young man of 140 lbs. weight call raise 11,000 lbs. of water one toot high in a minute, and with a Foun tain Pump 9,009 lbs. in half a minute. Thus a continual and most extraordinary lucrative advantage is gained ever perpetual and uni versal ignorance, clearly preying that Knowledge is Power. John Clenton Roberts, Esq., in his popular work, No. 1,116, did well in placing Gosset's French l'ump Abortion (that slaps the water upward) side by side with the Fountain l'ump, which upset a good deal of Folly. Because Mr. Alallett, Dublin, a thorough-bred pump maker, Mr. liaddley, London, all everlasting pump-writer, and Mr. Ewbank, America, an ignorant pump bookmaker, asserted that the two pumps were identical. But the Yankee out-fooled John Bull aid Paddy la 1.4. 1,183, and in No. 496, Book-maker Millingten's remarks are preposterous. However, en the other hand, Dr. Birk beck, Aberdeur, Hay, Parkington, with many other discerning men, after witnessiu4 the perfect effect and the beautiful simplicity of the rolling principle, gave the invention the following true and sustain able character:—The Fountain Pump is the most important improve ment in the art of raising water that has appeared within the last two thousand years—the greatest advancement In the useful arts in modern times. The Consummation Fountain Pumps are successfully carried out for private and public uses, at lifts below and above 100 feet altitude, for man, horse, and steam power; delivering from half a pint per stroke to 100 barrels •f water per minute, and rendering every fair trial at competition ridiculous, whilst their durability is guaranteed at less cost thaw common pumps.

Mr. PEACOCK stated that the declaration in this case set out an agreement of the 10th of January, 1845, whereby the plaintiff engaged to sing twenty times at Drury-lane Theatre, during the period from the 15th of June to the 31st of July, 1845, or during the period from the 30th of September to the 15th of November in the same year, the defendant to choose either of those two periods, and to apprise the plaintiff of her selection at the latest by the end of March in the same year. The plaintiff agreed to pay defendant 50 louis d'ors for each performance, within twenty four hours after each of such performances, and the defendant was to sing three times a week. The declaration negatived the defendant's giving notice of her election of either of the two periods during which she was to sing, and averred that she did not sing within either period. The defendant pleaded seven special pleas, the last of which alleged that, though true, it was that the defendant did not choose or elect either of the two periods within which she was to sing at the plaintiff's theatre, nevertheless, she said that after the time for making the said elec tion had expired, namely, after the expiration of the month of March, 1845, the plaintiff did not require the defendant to sing at either of the said times or periods in the said year 1845, whereby she was dis charged from the performance of the said agreement. The plaintiff demurred to this plea. The plea was clearly bad. Here a party had agreed to do one of two things, and the option was reserved to her. She was the person to make the election, and to give notice of it. She had not given notice. She had made a default as to the first period, fuld as to the other, her answer was that she had not been called upon to sing. Tis was not a valid answer. Lord DENMAN asked whether any gentleman ap peared on the other side, and was answered that Mr. Hoggins did. But his Lordship observing that Mr. Hoggins was not present, said, And even if present, he would hardly be able to sustain this plea. As at present advised, we think the plea bad. The engage ment was an absolute one, and all the defendant says is, that she was not called on to perform it. That is no excuse for the nan-performance o' an absolute engagement. Mr. PEACOCK said, that when he began he did not know of his Learned Friend's absence, and said he should be willing, if their Lordships permitted, to go on with the argument to-morrow. Lord DENMAN—We shall hear what Mr. Hoggins says to-morrow. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Feb. 3. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, before the LORD CHIEF BARON and Special Juries.) THE QUEEN V. GOOCH, COUSINS, AND ♦NOTHER. In this case, which was similar to that which occupied the Court the whole of yesterday, the jury returned a verdict for the Crown for the amount of the penalties named in the information. THE QUEEN V. ALLEN. This was an information on the part of the Cus toms to recover penalties to the amount of 751. from the defendant, for having in his possession a quantity of unmanufactured tobacco upon which the duty had not been paid. Sir F. Thesiger, Mr. Watson, and Mr. Wilde ap peared on behalf of the Customs. The defendant conducted his own case in person, and endeavoured to vindicate himself from the charge, on the ground that he was ignorant of the contents of certain boxes which he was engaged in removing 'rorn the docks. Evidence, however, was adduced on behalf of the grown, which appeared to satisfy the jury in finding a verdict for the Crown for the amount laid in the information. LATE FATAL OCCURRENCE AT THE EUSTON-SQUARE TERMINUS. CONCLUSION OF THE CORONER'S INQUIRY. Yesterday forenoon, at ten o'clock, in accordance with adjournment from Monday last, the jury ere pannelled to inquire into the deaths of Charles Gedge and James Hickey, the persons killed by the falling of the north end of the new vestiklule in course of erection at the London and North-Western Railway Terminus, Euston-grove, re-assembled for the purpose of completing their investigation, before Mr. G. J. Mills, the Deputy Coroner, in the absence of Mr. Wakley on account of illness. Mr. Miens, the Deputy Coroner, on taking his seat expressed his regret that a severe attack of influenza prevented the attendance of Mr. Wakley. The jury were aware, at their last meeting, that the inquiry was adjourned for the purpose of receiving the opinion of Mr. Hosking in writing. Mr. Tite said, before Mr. Hosking's evidence was taken, he begged to make a statement which ho con sidered important. It would be remembered that on the last occasion he had stated as his opinion that bricks on edge in the erection of the columns would bear greater pressure than bricks flat. He had since made an experiment, and bricks laid flat were crushed with a weight of 30 tons, whereas bricks edgeways were not crushed until a weight of 35 tons was applied. The DeruTr CORONER said, he would now call on Mr. Hosking, who he understood differed with some of the other professional gentlemen in minor details, but which did not affect the general question. Mr. Hosking considered it unnecessary that he should be sworn, as being bound by a general oath of fidelity as 'an officer of the Government. Mr. Ilosking here banded in his opinion, which was read by Mr. Mills to the jury, as follows : " I am of opinion that the columns, or some of them, failed under an impulse derived from the scaf fold, acted upon by the movements of the workmen ; and the failure of any one would, under the circum stances, necessarily involve that of all the rest, and of the s uperstructure; the weakness which admitted of failure from such an impulse being mainly attri butable to the unindurated state of the cement used in building the columns, and that the columns broke under under an impulse which, as I believe, they might have borne safely if the cement had attained the rate of induration which it is capable of attaining. (Signed) "WILLIAM HOSKING. " Office of Metropolitan Buildings, Feb. 2, 1848." In reply to questions put to Mr. Hosking by the deputy coroner and the jury, Mr. Hosking stated as his opinion, that the pressure of the columns on the bricks of the pedestals caused the latter to give way, but that the first failure was in the columns. I think the pressure of the scaffold crushed the cement, and caused the columns to break up as it were. I believe that the moving of the scaffold was necessary to cause a fall. H a d th e sc aff o lding not touched the work, slight as it was, it would, in my opinion, have been safe. I think it must have been caused by some sudden impulse. 1n a similar case in future, 1 would suggest that the scaffold might be made to rest on the ledges, without allowing the put tocks to rest upon the walls at all. I have no doubt, had the works been constructed in the summer, there would have been sufficient induration of the cement and mortar. It is my opinion if the cement had been properly set, the columns would have broken in large masses. A juror—To whom do you impute blame ? The DEPUTT-CORONER - Mr. Hosking is not here to impute blame, but merely to gi ve an op i n i on . It appears to be a question of time a n d season . Mr. John Braithwaite , examined—l am a civil en gineer. lam of Mr. Tite 's opinion, that the first failure was in the pedestals. I think that the work was carried up to a certain height w ith e quilibrium, and if the cement had done its duty there would have been no accident. In the first place I think there was a subsidence in the pedestals, and the weight of the entablature caused the columns also to give. I think that the scaffold had very little to do with the matter at all. By the jury—l do not think there was undue weight upon the columns if there had been time fur the work to set, but I think there was undue time al lowed for the erection of the whole stru c ture. The Foreman said he was instructed by his brother jurors to inquire whether it was the intention of the authorities to provide for the widows and families of the deceased parties. Mr. Mills said he could not answer that question. Having explained the state of the law, the court was cleared, and after about an hour's discussion the court was re-opened, and the foreman read the .ollowing special verdict:—" "'hat Charles Gedge and James Hickey were killed by the falling of a portion of a certain building situate at the Euston-square station of the London and North-Western Railwa', and that the fall was caused by the non-induration of the cement and mortar with which the building was e rected during a we t an d bad season of the year; and the jury add to their verdict an expression of their opinion that due caution was not taken in the erection of the building, consider ing she time of year at whichit was put together. At the same time they avoid expressin g an o pi n i o n respecting the general design and details of the building, as they consider them to be subjects on which the judgments of architects should be formed after reviewing the various facts relating to such buildings as come before them, amongst which facts I they consider that those which have been disclosed at COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, THURSDAY.—The Queen and Prince Albert walked this morning on the Eastern Terrace and Slopes of the Castle. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, took walking and pony exercise to-day, in the grounds adja cent to the Castle. . _ _ His Royal Highness Prince Albert enjoyed the sport of shooting this morning, attended by Lord Byron, Mr. J. R. Ormsby Gore, Colonel the Hon. C. B. Phipps, General Bowles, Colonel Buckley, and Captain the Hon. A. Gordon. Sir henry E. Fox Young has arrived in town from the Cape of Good Hope, and had, yesterday, an inter view with Earl Grey, at the Colonial-office. Lord liinnaird had an interview with the Right Hon. Edward Strutt yesterday, at the office of the Commis sioners of Railways, in the Board of Trade. The Postmaster-General had an interview with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on) Wednesday, at his official residence in Downing-street. Dispatches from the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope, and also from the Governors of the West India Colonies, were received yesterday, at the Colonial-office. ACCIDENT AT MR. BURFORD'S PAINTING-ROOM FROM THE IMPROPER USE OF FIRE-ARMS.—An accident which might have been attended with the most serious consequences, occurred on Tuesday last at the painting room of Mr. Burford, proprietor of the Panoransa Royal, Leicester-square. Whilst that gentleman and his assistants were engaged in painting a new picture, which will shortly be exhibited to the public, they were alarmed by a loud report of fire-arms close to them, and immediately found that a ball had not only passed through the doors of the building, which are very strong, but had, subsequently, gone through the picture on the side nearest the entrance; and, traversing an area of nearly ninety feet, had also passed through the picture on the opposite side, close to the spot where Mr. Bur ford had been painting a short time before. Happily, no one was struck by the ball, which, as four persons were present, and in different directions, may be con sidered as almost miraculous. We are, also, glad to hear that no serious damage has been done to the paint ing. On inquiry, it has been ascertained that some idle fellow, a married man, and, therefore, old enough to know better, had been trying the powers of his pistol, by firing at the doors of the painting-room, under the impression that the ball would not penetrate them. Mr. Burford has not taken any proceedings in this matter; but we give these particulars, to serve 55 a warning to the many foolish persons who are in the habit of incautiously using fire-arms, and of the serious, if not fatal results, which may be the consequence of their carelessness. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, FEB. 2. Our sugar market has been gradually advancing, and prices are now 3s. to 4s. per cwt. higher than they Were at the lowest point of the market.
