This grand match was resumed on Wednesday, at Derby, and, as will be seen, was eventually "drawn " without both parties having had an innings, in consequence of the wetness of the weather. There was another, and the most powerful reason too, why the game could not be played out, namely, the fact that the "All England Eleven " were compelled to set off for Manchester, where they were to commence their match against the Fifteen yesterday (Thursday) morning. We fear that poor Dakin, for whom the match was made, will not have derived any benefit from the affair. However, the elements are not within the control of human powers.

PLYMOUTH AUG. 23.—The Hermes steamer, Martin master, sailed last evening for Portsmouth, from whence she will take supernumeraries to Cork, and then return to this port. The - Southampton, 50, fitting at Chatham, for the Cape of Good Hope station, will be paid advance at this port. - Admiral Sir William Hall Gage struck his flag on board the San Josef on Monday, and proceeded on leave of absence; the duty of the port devolves on Admiral Superintendent Sir John Lotus. The Admiralty have determined that only one of the advance ships at each port is to retain its lower masts, and that all the rest shall be taken out, and carefully stowed away in the dockyard. It has also been deter mined that a frigate;as well:as a line-of-battle ship, shall retain her masts, and the Calcutta and the America are selected at this port. THE SQUADRON OF EXERCISE. CORK, Arc. 21.—The Tweed corvette, 18 guns, Com mander Lord Francis Russell, arrived yesterday from Waterford, whence she brought a number of the Royal Marines, detached from the fleet on the ex pected outbreak on that part of the coast. This day a gale has been blowing so furiously that all the fleet have been lying with both anchors down and top-gal lant masts on deck. Sir Charles Napier's squadron, comprising the St. Vincent, 120 guns, Captain S. C. Dacres (flag-ship); the Prince Regent, 90, Captain W. F. Martin ; the Bellerophon, 80, Captain R. L. Baynes, C. 8.; the Amphion, 34,,Captain W. J. Williams ; the Tweed, 18, Commander Lord Francis Russell ; the Stromboli steam sloop, 6, Commander Lord A. W. Beauclerk ; the Helena, 16, Commander G. W. Smith ; and the Frolic, 16, Commander Vansittart, will sail on an evolutionary cruise when the weather moderates, and will be joined by the Blenheim, 55, steam-ship, Captain H. D. Chads, C. 8., and the Pilot, 16, Commander E. M. Lyons. The steam-ship Amphion had met with an accident to her best anchor ; the particulars are not stated. DOCKYARD BATTALIONS.—The recent order of the Horse Guards, and the accompanying recommendation from the Admiralty authorities to these bodies, to salute a la militaire all naval and military officers whom they may meet when in uniform, has produced considerable discontent in several of these bodies. The men generally have no objection to salute their own officers whenever they meet them, but they object to pay homage to mili tary and naval officers not attached to their corps. The last instance of refusal to cede the complimentary salutes to the "regulars" occurred when the order was read to the Portsmouth battalion, the' boat brigade of which force steadily and almost unanimously shouted " No," when asked on parade to comply with the order. Woonwicu, Arc. 24.—The Monkey steam-vessel, Master Commander W. Bryant, returned from Sheerness yesterday evening, after the arrival of the Sharpshooter, and entrance to that port, and the former vessel towed the Adventure transport steam store-ship to Deptford this morning. The Lolds Commissioners of the Admiralty, in con sideration of the valuable services of Mr. Bellamy, Assistant-Master Attendant at Woolwich Dockyard, have promoted him to be Master-Attendant, and ap pointed him to Woolwich Dockyard, vice Elson, de ceased. PLYMOUTH, Arc. 23.—The new Belgian ship Clotilda, Captain Brebander, 800 tons, from, Antwerp on the sth instant, bound to New York, put . in here last night, having, on Sunday night, the 20th instant, off the Scilly Islands, encountered a heavy gale from S.S.W., which hove the ship on her beam ends, and compelled the . crew to cut away her gear. She has lost her bowsprit, tore mast about 20 feet from the deck, naaintopgallant mast, maintopmast, and all the sails and rigging attached, top gallant rails and bulwarks, headrails, berthing, &c. The Clotilda has 250 German and Prussian emigrant pas sengers, who pay 1301. Swiss, or about nine louis d'or each for passage, including rations. TIIE ROYAL MARINE CORPS. THE COMMAND OF THE PORTSMOUTH DIVISION.— This appointment, vacant by the voluntary retirement of Colonel Thompson Aslett, has been conferred upon Colonel Charles Menzies, second Commandant of Chat ham division. This officer entered upon the duties of his advanced post on Tuesday, and yesterday made an elaborate inspection of the various departments of his division. Colonel Menzies is an officer of much merit, as will be teen by the record of his services in the Army and Navy Lists. lie was first lieutenant, and com manded a detachment, and landed at Port Jackson dur ing an insurrection of convicts in 1804, and was mainly instrumental in restoring tran qu illity i n th e co l ony . lie served in the boats of the Minerva at the cap ture of five luggers protected by a battery, in Finisterre Bay; was in the barge at the capt ure o f t h e S pan i s h pri vateer Buena Dicha, of ono long gun, and 26 men; com manded a boat at the ca pt ure o f t h e S panish gun-boat at Carril, and commanded the m a ri nes at t h e storm i ng o f Fort Finisterre in 180 G-7; served in boats at the capture of the Spanish national vessel of war San Josef, and landed and made prisoner the Spanish commodore; was in command of the marines at the capture of Fort Guardia, and slightly wounded in cutting out the French corvette Mozelle in Basque Roads; he served at the taking of Fort Carnarinas, and gun-boats, and was re peatedly engaged i n b oat actions and against batteries. Colonel Aslett was Second Lieutenant, serving in the Montagu at Cainperdown. SOUTHAMP TON , T HURSDAY, A UG . 24.—The Penin sular and O r i enta l Steam Navigation Company ' s s hi p Indus, Ca p tai n Soy, with the homeward East India , China, and Mediterranean mails, may be expected here about Sunday next, provided she has not been detained at Malta to p er f orm quarant i ne, i n consequence o f th e cholera raging in Egypt at the date of her departure from Alexandria. The Jupiter, Captain F. Meehan, is appointed to t a k e ou t th e nex t Sp a nish and Portugues malls• The 27th falling on Sunday, the mails will be made up in London on the morning of the 28th, and the Jupiter will take her departure on Monday. The Sultan, Captain Brooks, will sail on Sunday, for Gibraltar, M alts, Constantinople, and the Black Sea ports. The steam ship Queen (lately running on the Peninsular line) has been sent to Constantinople, to run between that port and the Island of Candia, as a privateer steamer. The Tagus, Captain R. W. Evans, is to sail on Tues day, the 29th, for Gibraltar, Genoa, Leghorn, and Ci vita Vecchia. The new steam-ship Malta, Captain S. Lewis, will leave this about the Ist of September, for India, to take up her station in carrying her .Majesty's mails between Ceylon and Hong-Kong. The Royal Mail Steam Packet Company's ship Forth is appointed to take out the West India and Mexican mails of the 2d proximo. Steam•ships in dock—Forth, Great Wes tern, Jupiter, Iberia, Montrose, Sultan, Malta, and Tagus. The American barque Attica, Captain M'Lellan, with 2,750 boxes of white sugar from Ma tanzas, arrived off Cowes yesterday, for orders, and the American barque Aquila, Captain New, with sugar from Havannah, sailed yesterday for St. Peteraburgh. KING'S COLLEGE HOSPITAL.—We have been ;in formed that the Committee of Management of King's College Hospital have succeeded in purchasing a large plot of ground, on which they propose to erect a new hospital on such a scale as will afford ample accommoda tion for the suffering poor of the densely-populated dis trict around it. The ground extends from Carey-street to Clement's-lane, and is of considerable size. This is a very important acquisition, not only for the hospital, which now occupies a high position among the charitable institutions of the metropolis, but also for the neigh bourhood, which cannot fail to be greatly improved by the removal of the old decaying houses now standing upon the ground and the erection of a handsome build ing instead of them. A new street has been long talked of in this locality to relieve the overthronged thorough fare of the Strand ; and we cannot help thinking that the Commissioners of Metropolitan Improvements, if disposed to act in conjunction with the authorities of the hospital, might find their objects much facilitated by this new acquisition on the part of the committee. The Queen and Prince Albert have jointly sub scribed 501. to the fund for building and endowing a church at York Town, for the benefit of the Royal Mili tary College and its :neighbourhood. The Queen Dow ager has also subscribed 501„ and many noblemen and military officers educated at that institution have libe rally contributed to the fund, which now amounts htoe 1,9001., about 9001. more being required to complete t undertaking. ives a RURAL FETE AT OSBORNE.--Her Majesty g grand fete at the marine palace of Osborne, - .lsle of Wight, to-morrow, itt honour of the Princ e Consort's birthday, to the chief of the neighbouring of Ports w gentry and the naval and military Comman ders --C mouth, the Admiral-Superintendent, and the Captains of the Fleet, Ece. 4 ' i .ei r C , AZO . o. 10/.(M. & a IV B. 9 4 ....

American realised 30. to SV. per lb. There was a good supply. Railway Shares were firm, and bad an upward tendency, but only a li mited business was done. The accounts received from various parts of the coun try upon the subject of the crops are more satisfactory upon the whole, though particular districts, and espe cially in the south of England, appear to have suffered materially. The supplies of grain at market are very limited, and there is an advance again of Is. per quarter in wheat. There are no Colonial arrivals, and the Continental advices are for the most part of a satisfactory tenor. In Belgium arrangements are to be made for simplify ing the administration of the finances. In France there are appearances of life as regards several departments of trade. Communications have passed between the Governments at Paris and Copenhagen respecting the seizures of vessels owned by French subjects, and very satisfactory explanations have been afforded ; but as the blockade becomes stricter, greater difficulty is experi• enced in distinguishing cargoes, and the Danish Go vernment has accordingly laid down very particular in structions on the subject, with which parties interested will do well to make themselves acquainted. The Money Market is more buoyant to-day, although there is much anxiety felt for the financial explanations of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, opinions being con flicting as to his probable wants. We believe that the Government itselt is not yet in a position to state what may be required for 'lreland, but each day of fine weather subtracts from the amount, and it might hap pily result that no supply whatever would be needed. The Funds have been quiet, but are to 4 per cent. better than yesterday, confirming what we have for some days past stated, that there is a disposition, whenever appearances are at all favour. able, to operate for an advance in prices. Consols have been 86k to 4 for transfer, and 864 to 4 for ac count. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 864 to 874, and the Three per Cents. 864 to 864. Exchequer-bills have been 32e. to 355. premium, and India Bonds 235. premium. • The Foreign market has been better. Spanish Five per Cents. have realised 12* to 124. Portuguese Four per Cents. have advanced to 19 and 20f, and Peruvian are at 30. Mexican are nominally 161 to 17. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 444 to 441. The Railway Share Market is more animated, and at enhanced prices for North-Western, Midland, Brighton. South-Eastern, and tho York lines. Caledonian con tinue flat.

BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. Doctor of Medicine. Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order :kat it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when axed in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused .the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on Use nature and consequence/ of whieb-this.Treatise profeesset to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering mom 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 or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of lisease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the ,eiedical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal lualitle,ations that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional 'pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a ;uarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented.

The solitary one ma y shield hi mself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence , and the Indi ss o luble , regret un conaprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great h i n d r ances to d omestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement.

STATE of the MANUFACTURING DISTRICTS.-MORE ARRESTS. At Manchester, yesterday, Rogers, another of the Chartist leaders, was brought before the borough ma gistrates on a warrant obtained under the indictment for conspiracy. Being unable to give bail ho was committed to the assizes. The prisoners committed on the previous day to the assizes were removed to the Kirkdale prison, yesterday, being unable to obtain bail. At Ashton, during Wednesday night, a clean sweep was made of all the Chartist and Confederate leaders who had not sought safety in flight, and thirteen were brought before the magistrates yesterday, who had been taken under bench-warrants obtained in the same way, by indictment, at the assizes, as those on which the Man chester Chartists had been taken. James and John Taylor, William Aitkin, James and Edward Ilarrop, William Bolton, William Macklin, Joseph Batty, and Thomas Stowell were apprehended on Wednesday night, under such warrants, and were brought up at the Town-hall yesterday to give bail for their appearance at the next Liverpool assizes. The prisoner whom we stated yesterday to have been apprehended by Inspector Maiden en Tuesday, on board the Ocean Monarch, bound for Boston, was Samuel Ratcliffe, who, on per ceiving the officer coming to the ship, stowed himself away in the hold among some rubbish. Ile was brought to Ashton on Wednesday evening, and it was expected he would be brought up yesterday. He is charged with sedition and conspiracy. No disturbances took place on Wednesday night, though a few shots were heard in Dukinfield. At Bradford, on Wednesday night, the police, acting under the orders of the magistracy, paid a round of visits to the various club-rooms of the Chartists and Confederates in the town of Bradford. Most of them were found empty, but in Emmett's section room, in Vi ctor i a - s treet, nine men were found, half•a-dozen of them being woolcombers, two weavers, and a tinner, and they were all marched off to prison, a number of books and papers in the care of the secretary being taken by the officers of justice. At the house of John Smyth, in Thomas-street, a number of papers were also found, and he, too, was conveyod to prison. The names of the persons apprehended are--James Ilelltwell (30), Eli %Vilma!' (30), Joseph Ridehalgh (21), Thomas Ibbetson (20), William Wood (30), Adam Stratton (30), Thomas Wilkinson (42), Edward Power (42), Daniel Lindon (34), and John Smyth (42). The capture of these men was effected in a very quiet manner, and although the military were under arms their services wore not re quired. Yesterday the town was as quiet as usual, TIIE DiactruNs or LirE.—" These volumes de clare themselves the work of a female hand, and one in which the sweetness, simplicity, and pathos of the best old English style of narrative seem to us revived. The writer will make herself widely known, and will find lov ing welcome. There is no merit nor hazard in predict ing it. Since Miss Austen ceased to write and Mrs. Marsh began, we have had no other story - telling of its class that we would place upon a level with this, for freshness, straightforwardness, and truth of tone and feeling. Its way to the sympathies is direct, swift, sure. Criticism notices faults of haste and inexperience, but forgets them in the presence of emotion as real as the heart can undergo, or the eye bear silent witness to. There are passages in these stories which even Mrs. Inchbald has hardly surpassed, for the sweet cunning andbwoei. strsievolewsnisheiaclhe therevealed ih them."--Examiner. e c m r secrets f E t r h a e m f i e a m e r a . le heart are touched Complaints safvmr have immediate _ O EADVERTISEMENT.]—The Prevailing Epidemic ay r j b i e a Cured rrhcea by yer uanyrs Holloway'se affection to Ho ev f l as the.y— s Pills, as they are the safest and most certain remedy to obviate and remove the morbid and irritating causes of the disorder, by which means the impaired tone of the stomach becomes p er f ect l y restored.

SHAKESPERE BIRCHED.—An unfortunate indivi dual, who thus writes himself down, " W. J. Birch, M.A. , New Inn Hall, Oxon , " has b e en guilty of begetting a book called An Inquiry into the Philosophy and Religion of Shahs pere. This benighted Birch calls up Shakspere, and accuses him of Infidelity. He had not the proper notions of immor tality, says Birch ; and—to the great delight of his own cha ritable soul—he proves, at least in the belief of the possessors, the existence of no such for other people. Marlowe is at once written down an Atheist; and, indeed, other playhouse folks are turned inside out, as Birch would turn out one cf his old gloves. Several of our contemporaries have abused Birch at length; the more simple they. We should as soon think of arguing with a reasoner who, for fault of human wit, used ancient eggs. A Birch, however, insults Shaks pere ' we would punish him and in this fashion : — We would turn him adrift in a washing tub on the Avon; and whereas Birch has thrown his dirt at the Swan, he should be piloted by congenial geese. After this we should have it signifi cantly proved to Birch that he deserved nothing short of himself.—Punch. The Duke of Bedford left town early in the week, to join the distinguished party visiting the Duke of De vonshire, at Bolton Abbey, Yorkshire. .4 16:, 30 7 % 22.3 i 2 ..... 1414 2 1 :Y4 .. . ..
