The Mart of E. MOSES and SON with its Stock,. hay in many respects be compared to a clock , And I think I cats make it appear in my rhyme, That the clock-mart in question keeps very good time. It is never too fast, and is never too slow, And though never wound up, it continues to go. And bringing a well. known expression to bear, The trade is conducted like One o'clock there. While MOSES and SON, in their capital stock, Have proved very clearly they know what's o'clock. E. MOSES and SON have attained a renown, As two heavy weights which can ne'er be run down ; And their dress, which in all points is made to your liking, Ilas ever been viewed as remarkably striking; And thousands by cheapness and quality won, Are striking good bargains with MOSES and SON. The low figures tempt people to buy, And they ery good hands make the Mart to rank high. Titus the Warehouse of MOSES and SON with its stock, Liss in many respects been compared to a clock ; With the hope that thett reader will ask he what's the time. N.B.—E. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their pre sent Stock of Juvenile attire. The designs are elegant and unique, and the workmanship and materials are suck as to command univer sal approbation, while at the same time the prices are unusually mo derate. LIST OF PRICES.

Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing harry ; but the troth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little MEMOIRS 'On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is. each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining them. They are not intended certainly for mere Idle cariosity, but for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other tittle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each, by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always an the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of Sherwood, 23, Paternoster-row; Carvalho, 147, Fleet.street ; Mann, 39, Cornhill ; Nelson, 457, West Strand ; or direct (by post or other wise) from the author (who may be conferred with pcasonany, mornings and ovenings),, 10, Argyll-plaeo Regent-street ; and all Booksellers.

With Practical Observations no the Use and Abuse of Instruments in the Treatment of Urethral Dis eases, showing that the unnecessary employment of instruments is a frequent exciting cause of stricture, and that a want of practical knowledge and manual dexterity in their use, when necessary, is the source of most of the severe, long-protracted, arid complicated cases of that disorder so fatally prevalent. The whole illustrated by nu merous cases. THE LIBERTY of the SUBJECT. INQUISITORIAL PROCEEDINGS OF GRAND JURIES. TO THE EDITOR OP THE SUN. Sin,—The liberty of the subject, and a fair and open trial by jury, is the boast of every native of this realm; and few men, unacquainted with our forms of proceed ing in criminal law, will believe it possible that in this " land of liberty," as we call it, a person may, behind his back, and without any notice to him, be accused of a criminal offence, however heinous, tried by the grand jury, found guilty, held to bail, or apprehended, and committed to prison, without his having even heard . of the offence with which he is charged. And yet, Sir, monstrous as it may appear, such cases occur almost every day in this country, and will continue to occur as long as the present iniquitous system is allowed to continue of grand juries finding indictments behind the back of the party accused, and without any investigation of the case in his presence. Some time last year the Common Council of the city of London unanimously agreed to petition Parliament to amend the law in this respect. One of the speakers upon that occasion described the present system as being " worse than the Inquisition." And Mr. Humfrey and Mr. Wire (both professional gentlemen of great ex perience in criminal matters) stated that, to their know ledge, the present system was almost daily made the medium of private malignity and revenge, or of vexation, and that there were hundreds of persons in this country who made a livelihood by preferring indictments upon false charges, getting the bills " found" by the grand jury, and afterwards extorting money from the persons falsely accused, upon the terms of abandoning the pro seeution. But, although such petition was agreed to nearly a year ago, and another session of Parliament has almost passed away, nothing has yet been done to correct this infamous state of the law. That this inquisitorial mode of proceeding of the grand juries, capable of being, and constantly put in motion against innocent parties, for the mere purposes of revenge or extortion, should be allowed to co n ti nue to t h e present day, is really surprising, and I can only attribute it to the general ignorance which prevails upon the subject amongst unprofessional persons. I have constantly, in the society of intelligent unprofessional men, pointed out this anomalous state of our criminal law, and have always found the greatest difficulty in making any per son believe that such a state of things could really exist in this country in the 19th century. It is said that one fact is better than a thousand ar guments, and therefore I shall take the liberty of men tioning two cases which occurred, within my own know ledge, during the last few months, both of which strongly illustrate the necessity of an alteration in the law on the above subject. In one case, a French gentleman came to this country to recover a debt due to him by a person residing here, and commenced an action for its recovery. His debtor sought to evade payment of the debt, and as a mode of coercing him into giving it up, or compromising it, pre ferred an indictment against him for some absurd charge, went before the grand jury, and behind the back of; and unknown to, the accused, got the bill of indictment found, and a warrant issued for his apprehension, under which he was arrested and confined in Newgate. And when the case came on for trial, the jury immediately pronounced a verdict of acquittal, have l,and fo th u e nd ju t d b g e e bi s i a l i o d f , that the grand jury should never indictment. In another case, the defendants in an equity suit sought to compel their opponent to abandoa his claims against them, by intimidation, by availing themselves of the existing odious system which I have endeavoured to denounce. Accordingly, they trumped up two in dictments against the plaintiff in the suit, went before the grand jury, and as a matter of course, upon their ex parte and uncontradicted evidence, got the bills of in dictment found, warrants issued for the apprehension of the accused, and his committal to Ne wgate, without any notice to him, or any investigation of the alleged charges in his presence. But he having procured bail, taken defence to the indictments, and resisted all their attempts at intimidation and coercion, when the cases came on the prosecutor abandoned both the indictments. It is, Sir, in the hope of calling public attention to this important matter, so intimately connected with the liberty of the subject, that I take the liberty of address ing this letter to you, and I trust that you will have the kindness ournal._ toI m am, Sir, yourinsert ienioonbeidnytouserrywaindt:ly circulating j A BARRISTER. THE QUEEN v. BARNES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. reference to the short report of this case in your journal, we, as solicitors employed for the prosecu tion, deem it but justice towards our client, the Reverend Thomas Harvey, to state, that the Learned Counsel, when withdrawing the prosecution, misconceived the mo tives which influenced the adopting of that course on the part of our client. - The solo object of Mr. liarvey in commencing pro ceedings at all, was the preservation of his child from continuing an unhappy connexion. That object having been accomplished, and reposing, as he does, the fullest confidence in his daughter's decision, Mr. Harvey after wards felt himself permitted, without inconsistency, to abandon the prosecution, and, moreover, considered it his duty so to act, in order that, as a Christian, and more especially as a clergyman, no vindictive feelings should he attributed to him, notwithstanding the bitter injury inflicted. If, in the exercise of his judgment the Learned Coun sel did not fully adopt our client's wishes, it is incumbent on us to give this additional explanation ; an d we rely on your courtesy and impartiality to favour us with a prompt insertion, as under the present impression which the report is calculated to convey to the public, the Reverend Gentlemen's motives may be misconstrued. We have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servants, LEWIS and COOKE. I No. 4, Barnard's Inn, Holborn, July 11, 1848. LIGHT-HOUSE APPARATUS.—The vessel Pharos, arrived in the Commercial Docks, from Havre, h as . brought 65 boxes 9 cases and one other p ac k age of light-house apparatus of French manufacture, intended to be shipped immediately from hence to Leith. This large parcel of light-house apparatus, consisting o f lenses of large size and power, are understood to be im ported on account of the Commissioners of the Northern Lights, and are intended to be used for the light-houses under their direction. FRANCE. [ln submitting the following letter to our readers, we must remark, that correspondence between the two capitals, Paris and London, is just now only to be carried on by a sort of subterfuge. Letters are opened on suspicion and, for that reason those letters are, as a kind of protection, penned anonymously. However, thanks to a pseudonym, we have received the communication of our correspondent, and in giving that communica tion publicity in our columns, we must in justice to our countrymen, declare that the opinions expressed by ourselves upon LAMARTINE are opinions which excite the sympathy of thousands of the people of Great Britain.—ED. SuN.J TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Your forcible, just, and generous remarks on the noble and pure-minded Lamartine find a grateful response in every heart not ossified by the selfishness of personal interest, or debased by sinister views, opposed to the extension of civil and religious liberty. It is only through the English journals that France can now hope to hear the voice of truth; it is only through you and your contemporaries that the victims of military usurpation and mercenary oppression can hope to make the rattle of their chains heard, or find a vent for the outlet of their condensed indignation. By the Code Cavaignac, writing, speaking, or pub• lishing anything (not hostile) but admonitory—sugges tive, or promotive of measures for the general welfare — that may not be in unison with the acts of Government, or the contemplated views of the Dictator, is declared treason to the state —to offend is to be subjected to a re vival of the times and crimes of Louis the Fourteenth, to be arrested by Lettre de Cachet—to be imprisoned au secret—to have your property seized—your journal suppressed—to be denied all communication with friends, and refused the opportunity of remonstrance, of trial, or of defence; and it may be, after eleven days of inquisi torial incarceration, as in Emile Girardiu's case, the victim hs ruin is m mi i s seta t li ee petedhythe continuedchargeori mputation— whsequestra- tion of his property, and the suppression of his journal. Ah 1 Mon And! this is the cruel mockery of liberty in France—the subjugation of all civil rights—the suspen sion of all legal forms--the suppression of the public voice by the public press, under the pretence of establish ing order. Do not imagine that lam insensible to the dangers past, or that I would temporise with the san guinary hordes of the barricades. In England you en force the law, and if necessary, strengthen it to meet any emergency, but you do not violate public liberty, abrogate constitutional rights, place London in a state of siege, and set up a military dictator to suppress a tumultuous assemblage of m i sgu id e d , an d, t h erefore, dangerous people. If the restoration of order in France is to be based upon the reconstruction of a military despotism, as I believe it is—the fickle nation will soon have cause to lament, in tears of blood, their foul ingratitude to Lamartine, their base aban donment of the man who in the hour of peril bared his breast to the storm, and boldly seized upon the shattered helm of the state vessel to guide her into safe moorings. If in the attempt to steer through the wild and troubled waters of a revolutionary sea without chart or compass, he met with sunken rocks, and encountered the quicksands of disappointment, is he to lie accused of wilful error, and hunted down by the calumnies of malice? It' he happened to be occasionally wrong in his course —as who among statesmen is not?— is there no allowance to be made for the convulsive state of the empire, the intrusion of delusive theorists, and the innumerable difficulties attending the reorganization of a proposed entire chang e of Govern ment, embracing the , principles of universal "liberty, equality, and fraternity ?" That he was honest, his ene mies dare not publicly dispute—that he was frank and sincere will be attested by every foreign Minister with whom he conferred, but more particularly Lord Nor manby and Mr. Bancroft, who enjoyed an unrestricted intimacy with him during his onerous Administration. The Ministers of England and America might, and ought, to do Lamartine the justice of rescuing him from the judgments of ignorance. His well-earned literary re putation, his unimpeachable private character, the sin cerity of his political opinions, and the eloquence with which he advocates and adorns his policy, are proverbial, and beyond the reach of his maligners., That he should have committed political errors is not more wonderful than the fact of their being those of more consummate statesmen. Labour and Finance were the rocks he split upon, and they will continue to be the obstructive and embarrassing barriers for any and every future Government to pass through. The rapid increase of population in civilized Europe, aided by the increased mental intelligence of the people, must and will produce in all states a more equal and paternal form of government. The experiment has failed in France from the want of union between the classes ; but it will revive, and eventually succ of. Released from the delusion of false theories the people grown wiser by experience will, I hope, for their own security, combine to restore order, and secure for themselves a Government digni fied by its protective attributes of paternal solicitude for all. Then Lamartino and other equally honourable men will rise superior to the foul malevolence of faction —if living, they will be honoured, as they deserve, above their compeers; and if called home, receive the undying tribute of a nation's gratitude, which sooner or later history never fails to award to the names of the great and the good.

Since Monday the arrivals of English Wheat for our market have been on a fair average scale, yet the °show of samples here to-day was small. For all descriptions of both red nud white the demand was in a very dull state, at barely the late reduction in the quotations. The imports of Foreign Wheat have been very mode rate. Selected parcels were mostly held at late figures, but the middling and inferior kinds were somewhat easier to purchase. No English Barley at market, but the show of Foreign was good.. Tho trade ruled heavy, and prices were with difficulty supported. There was scarcely any inquiry for Malt, and prices remained al most nominal. Liberal imports of Foreign Oats have again taken place; hence the trade was in a very dull state, and the inferior samples were a shade lower. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour were neglected. English ...... Irish Foreign ...... MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was ac. tire, and closed firmly. Sales, 7,000 bales. Railway Shares improved considerably, and a good business era: done. A correspondence has been published relative to the use of the French language in Canada, and it is satisfac tory to find that, as the feeling in Canada is so decidedly in favour of allowing the combined use of the French and English languages as a means of attaching the nu merous parties who speak the former, a Bill has been presented by Earl Grey to repeal the previous re • strictions. A report made by the grand jury of Montreal within the last two months is particularly satisfactory. It expressed the conviction of the parties signing, and who are of both French and English origin, that the country will continue to enjoy the blessings of tranquillity, although the states of Eu rope have been convulsed by revolutions, and that this ' peace is due to the form of government, and the wisdom of the men appointed to represent the Sovereign. The accounts from Germany are favourable to-day, but from Paris they are still unsatisfactory. The public sales of Colonial Wool have been progres sing better within the last two days, and the biddings at the Indigo auctions are likely to improve, as the accounts from the manufacturing districts are better. Generally money is more wanted in commercial circles. The beautiful weather causes the Grain trade to rule dull here. The Funds are still rising, and the settlement of the account is all in favour of the Bulls, a proof of the enormous extent to which the opposing party must have carried on their operations.

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 that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how massy could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attentisn and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of wbich every man should r, Possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy ,•ictim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired I , i _ om early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering for assistance r.lyingtheir invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying forgets disease, that Ire to a qualified physician for relief.

Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstome, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than lever was before the baldness appeared. "Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to7the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an 11s. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume iti far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, mare it strong, and prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops on the crown of the head ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair on ehildren's heads in a few appplications. If used on infants' heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See pamphlet of testimonials.

Notwithstanding the supply of Beasts on offer in to day's market was by no means so large as that exhi bited on Friday last, the Beef trade, owing to the hot weather, was in a very sluggish state, and, in some in stance, the quotations had a downward tendency; very few Scots produced more than 4s per 81bs. With foreign stock we were well supplied, and the arrival from Scat land consisted of 294 Scots in excellent condition. The numbers of Sheep were somewhat extensive, even the time of year considered ; yet the Mutton trade was firm, at full rates of currency. Prime old Downs sold at 5s per Blbs. There was a better inquiry for prime Lambs, but the middling and inferior breeds commanded very little attention. Calves, the supply of which was im mense, moved of heavily, at barely late rates. Pigs were very dull, but not cheaper. Mitch Cows sold at from 151 to 181 each, including their small calves. Per albs. to sink the offal. s. d. to s. d. s. d. to s. d.

THE ARRIVAL OF THE .50T11 REGIMENT FROM `'Wednesday evening, the 12th inst., the right wing of the 50th Regiment (the Queen's Own) marched into Chatham barracks from the terminus of the Gravesend and Rochester Railway from Gravesend, where they disembarked at the Custom-house quay from the ship Sutlej, of 500 tons burthen, Captain Parish. Its strength consists of seven sergeants, three drum mers, and seventy rank and file, with seven women and eight children. The troops are decorated with medals for their late military achievements on the Sutlej with the Seikh army, and are under command of Brevet- Major G. F. Long, who was the only senior officer left unwounded, when he took command and led gallantly the remaining portion of his regiment into Lahore. The other officers who are with this division are Captain Harry W. Hough and Lieutenant James G. Smyth, Lieutenant R. Hyde Page, and As sistant-Surgeon W. Baker Young. This detachment sailed on the 6th of February last, and on the 31st of March they arrived opposite to the Cape, and suddenly the gales came on, which increased with such extreme violence that the ship appeared unmanageable, the sea making over her, and owing to the powerful wind, she lost all her masts, and all hands on board were pumping and baling the water out of the ship, the women working as hard as the men ; indeed every one on board con sidered that she must have sunk. By perseverance, they in a manner jury -muted her. and hoisted all sail they were able ; and thus succeeded in getting into the Cape on the 10th of April, and the only life lost was a sailor. The troops did not lose a man, woman, or child, during the voyage. They are to be medically inspected this day at Fort Pitt, and on Monday will march en route to Weimer, to join their head-quarters. LYCEUM THEATRE.—Preparations are making on a very extensive and splendid scale for the production on Monday evening next, of the grand extravaganza of Blue Beard, by Plauch6. The taste and judgment of the fair manageress alone is a sufficient guarantee for the magnificence of the appointments. LIEUTENANTS ROYAL NAVY.—One cause of the difficulty experienced in getting Lieutenants to serve afloat, has, we think, been overlooked, it is the privilege conceded to captains and commanders of nominating their first lieutenants. Although there is a condition of standing annexed to the privilege of nominating, it is defective. A period of five years or six years is consi dered sufficient for the first lieutenant of a frigate; and as captains usually prefer young officers, it mostly happens that the lieutenant selected is as junior upon the ' list as the Admiralty limit will allow. The effect is, that all lieutenants, senior to th e o ffi cer se l ecte d b y t h e cap tain, are pre cluded from an appointment to that ship, however desirous they may be to serve. And if an officer has been unable to procure an appointment fora few years, after obtaining his rank, he is almost shut out of the service altogether. It may be that he does not feel competent, or is not inclined to undertake the responsible duties of first lieutenant—a separate command may be too expen sive—the coast-guard disagreeable—and thus he has no option but to remain upon half-pay. There is, we ad mit, very good cause why a captain should have the pri vilege of choosing his chief executive officer, but if it is continued the standing of the officer must be increased to ten years for a fourth-rate, seven years for an inferior rate, and five for a sloop-of-war. This would enlarge the field considerably, and remove the necessity for ap pointing all the young lieutenants to ships the moment they are promoted. If the Admiralty will pass some such regulation, and also repress as much as possible the rapidly increasing tendency to expensive messes, the service will be available to ma n y exce ll e nt officers wh o are now deterred by those circumstances from seeking employment.— United Service Gazette.
