This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for same unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the . t., l IE CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM regular surgeon.

THE NEW CORPORATION—ELECTION OF MR O'CONNELL AS LORI) MAYOR. DUBLIN, Nov. I.—This day the Aldermen and Com mon Council returned at the late municipal election, to serve in the new corporation, met at the Old Assembly house, in William-street, for the purpose of electing a Lord Mayor, - and transacting some further routine busi ness. At an early hour in the morning the principal thoroughfares about the Assembly-house became crowded with spectators anxious to see the new Lord Mayor, and one-twentieth of the demands for admission into the in- :erior of the building, on cards, from thQ Common Conn, cil, could not be complied with. At eleven o'clock Al derman O'Connell entered the house, and a cheer for him burst forth, which he immediately suppressed, stating that it was his particular wish to avoid all de- monstrations that were nut unanimous. The house pre sented the same internal appearance it had at the late meetings of the old body ; there were in statu quo the portraits of King William 111., Alderman Bradley King, and the late Mr. John Gifford, as if sanctioning by their presence the deliberations of an assembly which the real men WoUld have looked upon with truly Orange horror. After the Aldermen and Council had subscribed the necessary declaration. Mr. O'CoiliELL said that, according to his view of the Act, the Alderman who had the largest number of votes at the late election should, ur.til a Lord Mayor was elected, be called upon to take the Chair, and he pro posed that Alderman Keshan be called upon to preside.— Passed. The Chair having been taken, Mr. ARABIN proposed that Alderman O'Connell be elected as•a fit and proper person to act as Lord Mayor of Dublin for the ensuing year. Alderman G. ROE seconded the nomination in a com plimentary speech to Mr. O'Connell, in the course of which he said that this being the first time that a Roman Catholic gentleman became qualified to fill that office after a lapse of 150 years, it wouli go far towards effecting con ciliation and allaying the feeling of inferiority which had so long existed in the minds of the vast majority of his fellow-countrymen. Many great political changes which had for their object the amelioration of the condition of the people had passed within the past twelve or thirteen years, and which he took a leading and important part in effecting. If it were only a reward for his services in enabling the present body to be formed, he was entitled to that or any other compliment they could pay him ; but he (Alderman Roe) proposed him on higher grounds —they were his perfect fitness for the office in every pos sible respect—whether as an adviser to the new Corpora tion, a local judge, or a person eminently qualified to bring about that spirit of conciliation which all expressed a desire to see established. Alderman. Burr, in a very conciliatory and moderate speech, proposed Sir Edward Burrough as a fit person to be Lord Mayor. He opposed the election of Alderman O'Connell, becaused he conceived that his success would be looked upon, whether justly or unjustly, as a party triumph by a portion of the population. Alderman KINAHAN seconded the nomination of Sir E. Burrough. Mr. T. AUCULLAGH spoke in reply to Alderman Butt, and, as a Protestant member of the Council, expressed his decided approval of the election of Mr. O'Connell. Mr. BOYCE said, before the question was put from the chair, he wished to ask Alderman O'Connell, if elected, what course he would pursue during his year of office re garding the Repeal question? Mr. O'CONNELL said that if elected he would allow Bo man to guess what his opinions were in his capacity of Chief Magistrate; but apart from that office he would be a Repealer, and advocate that measure, which he thought the only substantial one for benefiting this country. But in his character of Lord Mayor he should totally 'repu diate politics, for in that capacity he should have no po litics whatsoever.—(Cheers from all sides.) Mr. BOYCE did not think he could separate his private and public political conduct from the duties of the office, and being of that opinion he would vote against him. Mr. O'CONNELL said there vas no reason for supposing that he should eat, drink, pray, and sleep as Lord Mayor of Dublin for the year he held the office.—(Laughter.) Mr. DARLEY begged to observe that the small party in that house to which he belonged did not suggest the question that had been asked by Mr. Boyce, nor did they approve of its introduction. [Mr. Boyce is a very de cided Conservative.] The CHAIRMAN then put the question, when there appeared about forty votes for Mr. O'Connell, and not more than seven or eight against him. The new Lord Mayor then subscribed the declaration provided by the Act of Parliament, and ascended the chair amid great applause. For some minutes the cheer ing was continued, but the greatest good humour pre vailed on all sides. His LORDSHIP returned thanks to the Council for the high honour they had conferred upon him. He ac knowledged the kind and conciliatory manner in which his nomination was opposed. by Alderman Butt on the part of his political opponents, and he was proceeding at considerable length to point out to the assembly the duties which would iinmecliately devolve upon them, when Mr. Askins, Mr. O'Connell's tailor, entered the house with a rich crimson velvet robe, ornamented with satin bows, and presented it to the new Lord Mayor, who excited some laughter by his awkward manner of put ting it on. When dressed the assembly rose, and cheered him for several minutes. His LORDSHIP continued to call the attention of the Council to the state of the finances and the modes they should take to ascertain their exact state. For this pur pose he suggested Committees to be formed, who should look diligently into all the accounts and books connected with the old corporation. The guiding principles of the new body should be economy, the lessening the taxation on the city, and perfect justice to all persons. ' After some amicable discussion between the Lord Mayor, Mr. Butt, and other gentlemen, it was arranged that the Liberals should appoint Mr. Nelson, Q.C., as Assessor, and that the Conservatives should appoint Mr. Baker—neither party offering opposition to the election of these gentlemen. At the suggestion of the LORD MAYOR the Assembly adjourned to Friday next, and at three o'clock it broke up for the day. Several thousand persons were in the streets to greet his Lordship on his return from the Assembly-house. The vast crowds conducted themselves with the greatest decorum. _ LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1841. PUBLICATIONS.

A nuirierems. meeting of the most influential members of the Corporation of the City of London took place at the Guildhall on Monday. The Sheriffs, in consequence of the pressure of official business at the Central Crimi nal Court, were unable to attend, but their names were, at their r articular request, added to the list of persons constituting the Committee for superintending the mag nificent arrangements for the Polish ball, which was ap pointed to take place soon after the entertainment of the 9th inst. • Lord Dudley Stuart, the indefatigable advo cate of the Polish hero es , M r . R. G. M`Donnell, and other members of the Literary Association of the Friends . of Poland, were present. en t aleni had n ,lie igv formereusuch hP decidedolisl i Lord DUDLEY S TUART move d th a t D e puty Peacock d should take the Chair. U n d er t h e managem ent of that gbt s l Is e t ii.7fthae beenti o , so a that success ful, felt l the Committee could not put. themselves under better guidance than that of their old Chairman, whose busi ness-like habits and unremitting zeal had been already attended with such beneficial results.—(llear, hear.) Mr. ANDERTON seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. Deputy PEAeocK, upon taking the-Chair, said that he felt great pleasure in stating, that from the opportunities' he enjoyed in ascertaining the feeling generally enter tained in the City towards Poland and her unfortunate exiled sons, lie could most truly assert that on no former occasion did there exist a stronger desire on the part of the citizens of London, to manifest their sympathy in the cause of Poland, a cause of which neither he, nor many thousands in that city, ever despaired, desperate as it, might at present appear to bo.—(Cheers.) Independently of the wish of the Uity to mark the abhorrence natural to free-born Englishmen, of the tyranny which had driven the bravest defenders of liberty into banishment, the urgent wants of those desolate exiles, and the ap proach of winter, had conantwAi ng claims on the charity of the benevolent, which would be proved not to have been overlooked by the brilliant and numerous attend ance at the approaching 'JAL—(lkar, hear.) Lord DUDLEY STUART addressed the Committee with peculiar animation. lie had heard, he said, with much pleasure, the remarks which had been made by the Worthy Chairman, whose extensive experience and long acquaintance with the character and feelings of his fel= low citizens, doubtless rendered him a high authority. In former instances, when the funds of the Association were deeply embarrassed and wholly inadequate to the support of the various claimants, when the channels of benevolence, which in this country never ceased to flow, had spread themselves abroad in other directions, and the exiles who had fled from slaughter or persecu tion, were threatened with starvation in a foreign land, the Corporation of London assisted in collecting within the walls of their glorious building a splendid crowd, whose enjoyment was not diminished by the reflection that in that gay and bright assembly they were occupied in doing good.—(Cheers.) Ile could not help (although he knew it to be unnecessary for the purposes of the charity) calling the recollection of the Committee to the occasion when the application to Parliament had been defeated by a mere technical objection, and in the teeth of the majority of the House of Commons. After various attempts to enlist the public sympathy in behalf of the unhappy Poles had failed from different causes, the very elements combining with other circumstances against them, amidst all the gloom of adversity and disappoint ment, and almost despair, a ray of light appeared once more in the east, proclaiming that salvation was at hand, and the Poles were relieved again through the generosity of the Corporation of London.—(Cheers.) It was espe cially gratifying to find that there existed in this country so strong a feeling of tyranny which Russia had exercised, and was still con tinuing to exercise towards Poland, and also so strong a hope of the restoration of that gallant people's freedom, which was their birth-right, and an unalienable gift to every human being bestowed by the God of all.— (Cheers.) Still it should not be forgotten that the pur poe for which they had assembled there was one purely of charity, into which no political feeling, however praiseworthy, or however justifiable, should be allowed to enter.---e(Cheers.) Ile felt great pleasure in handing to the Chairman a list of Royal and Noble Patrons and Patronesses who had already, in the short space of two days since, the announcement that the Common Council had generously permitted the use of the Guildhall for the purposes of the ball, signified their intention of ho nouring the ball with their presence and support. It would be observed that there was no distinction of party in that long list. Names the highest, the noblest, the most illustrious of the land were there—of men who had guided the vessel of tile State in former Govern ments, and of those high in the Councils of her Majesty at this moment—all eager to send their countenance to the purposes of this charity—all, without distinction of party, eager to alleviate the sufferings of Poland. The Secretary of the former Polish balls' (Mr. Cinn) again expressed the pride he should feel in giving the aid of his exertions for the charity, and was unanimously elected to the office, mild Mr. Eagleton as warmly under took that of Treasurer. The Committee then resolved that the prices of the tickets should be the same as on former occasions, viz. for a lady's ticket, half a guinea ; for a gentleman's fifteen shillings; and for a double ticket, admitting a lady and gentlemen, one guinea. Refreshments, such as ices, ncgus, tea, &c., are included in the above prices , and ar rangements were subsequently adopted for insuring a most liberal sepply of them. It was next resolved, that the ball end a concert on a grand scale should take place at the Guildhall on the 17th of this month, and that the lighting, decorations, &c., should be even more splendid than they had been ever upon any former occasion. Mr. R. G. Ai'llonnell, Mr. Potter, Mr. Lott, Mr. Gold ham, and Mr. Obbard, were then appointed Masters of the Ceremonies, and some resolutions having been passed, the Committee adjourned to one o'clock on Wednesday, when the Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs, and several of the Aldermen will attend. PRESENTATION OF THE LORD MAYOR ELECT TO THE LORD CHAN CELLOR. Yesterday the Lord Mayor elect, the Recorder, Sheriff Magnay and Sheriff Rogers, Alderman Lainson, Alder man Gibbs, Alderman Sir James Carroll, Sir James Law, Bart. (the Chamberlain), Mr. Charles Pearson (the City Solicitor), Mr. Thomas Saunders (the City Comptroller), Mr. Tyrrell (the City Remembrancer), and the other principal officers of the Corporation, waited upon the Lord Chancellor, upon the occasion of the presentation of the Lord Mayor elect to that functionary to be ap proved of by. her Majesty. The RECORDER, in presenting the Lord Mayor to the Lord Chancellor, said , My Lord Chancellor, I have the honour to present to your Lordship, John PiHe, Esq., chosen by the citizens of London to fill the office of Lord Mayor for the ensuing year. In the election of this gentleman, the laws, charters, and customs of the City have been strictly observed; and it becomes my pleasing duty, in the name and on behalf of the citizens of Lon don, to crave her Majesty's most gracious approbation of the wise and prudent choice they have so happily made. It is ten years since Mr. Alderman Pirie served with distinction the office of Sheriff; the estimation in which his public conduct was regarded by the Livery of London is honourably recorded in the unanimous vote of thanks of that body : He was preferred to the place of an Alder man by the inhabitants of the Ward of Cornhill in 1834. He has occupied for many years the station of a merchant of eminence as a large ship-owner ex tensively engaged in the commerce of the country. At the late general election during his absence from the City, occasioned by temporary indisposition, without the opportunity of personal solicitation, six thousand electors pressed forward to the poll to testify their esteem for his character, and the unbounded confidence they reposed in the sound and enlightened principles on which he has uniformly acted in public life. I fear; my Lord, that the partiality of private friendship might be imputed to me if I ventured to speak of this gentleman as he merits in the varied relations and charities of social 'life; on this topic I am restrained by his presence from acquitting myself as I ought. Few can enjoy the o pportunities or possess the en abling means to tread in the steps of a Howard; but there are those who, in recalling the glowing expres sions of Burke in reference to the great philanthropist, will be forcibly reminded of one who, in an humbler sphere of usefulness, is animated by the same zeal, and influenced by like virtmus motives, " to dive into the depths of dußgeons ; to plunge into the infection of hospitals ; to survey the mansions of sorrow and pain; to take the guage and dimensions of human misery, dis tress, and contempt; to remember the forgotten; to attend to the neglected; to visit the forsaken." That the practice of these virtues is not inconsisistent with the exercise of firmness, with discrimination and energy of character, and with the union of circumspection and vigour in a post of great public trust and authority, I pray your Lordship to infer, from the circumstance that the Livery of London, who have long witnessed and approved the honourable career of the Lord Mayor elect, now humbly but confidently urge their suit, that the gracious ap proval of her. Maj es ty may ratify the choi c e of the c itizens. The LORD CHANCELLOR briefly r e pli e d—M r .

Red or grey hair, whiskers, eyebrows, moustaches, &c., are changed with out trouble, by simply using a comb wetted with the liquid; one application will produce a pleasing and a permanent change.

Tho 10th company, which, sailed from Woolwich in May last, to relieve the 2d company. at the Cape of Good Hope, arrived in good health, and without any ac cident having taken place, at their destination on the 7th of August. The company which is to be brought home will embark as soon as the men, who are scattered in small parties over a large extent of country, can be col lected together. The 11th company, at present stationed at Woolwich, is expected to relieve the sth company at Chatham on the 9th inst. FINAL TRIAL OF THE DEVASTATION STEAIV FRIGATE. Commander Hastings Reginald Henry and the officers of this fine vessel attended yesterday on board to make a final trial of her capabilities previous to the engines being reported upon to the Lords' Commissioners of the Admiralty. At 11 o'clock in the forenoon, Captain the Hon. J. F. F. De Ros, R. N. and F. R. S. ; Captain the Hon. Edward Plunkett, R. N., and several scientific gen tlemen ; Messrs. Maudslay and Field, engineers ; and Mr. Ewart, chief- engineer of the Woolwich Dockyard, went on board, and shortly afterwards the vessel was loosed from her moorings, proceeded down the river to Long Reach, to the measured ground, wherelthe speed of steam-vessels is ascertained with the greatest correct- ne ss. On this occasion the Devastation, for the purpose o giving her a fair trial, and testing her powers, had a cargo of 320 tons of coal put on board, and 61 tons of water in casks. Her draught of water was 13 feet 4 inches forward, and 14 feet aft., which afforded her paddle wheels a depth of water sufficient to propel her with greater velocity than on the former occasion, al though the strokes of the engine were only the same number, about 18 to 19 per minute. She accomplished the measured mile against the tide in 5 minutes and 48 seconds, and with the tide and against the wind in 4 minutes and 42 seconds, being_ nearly at the rate of 12 and I.sth statute miles on the average per hour. Mr. Ewart, the chief engineer, whose duty it will be to report as to the efficiency of the engine, and the speed of the vessel, expressed himself in the highest terms relative to the ease and smoothness of her motion, and added, that " he never timed any that could approach her in speed before,. and he was of opinion she was decidedly the fastest vessel in her Majesty's navy." The result of this trial is one of great importance to the country, and of which it has reason to be - proud, as the engines are the simplest, as they have proved to be the most efficient, of any yet introduced to public notice, and on that account our steam navy will be far superior to the steam navy of any other country. Messrs. Maudslay and Field have done themselves great credit by the liberality with which they undertook to fit this vessel, as a specimen of the advantages of their inven tion, and are deserving of the complete success they have met with, and there -can now be no doubt their engines will be introduced into all the new power,Ul vessels built for her Majesty's service in future. The disconnecting rods were tried during this trip, and in one minute and a quarter one of the powerful paddle-wheels, 25 feet in diameter, was detached from the engines, and the whole of their power applied to the other wheel. In three quarters of a minute the 'stupendous lever of the wheel was again attached, and the vessel sped through the water with the greatest velocity. On returning up the river she overtook the Manchester and Duchess of Kent large steam-vessels, and their crews appeared astonished that the Devastation had got so far a-head of them before they arrived opposite Woolwich. The Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty have very judiciously complied with the application of Com mander Henry, and ordered one of Porter's anchors, of 28cwt., for the Devastation and it was delivered at the dockyard yesterday, for the purpose of being tested. Commander Henry Boycs, of the Vixen steam-frigate, of the same mould as the Devastation, has obtained an order to be supplied with one of Porter's anchors of the same weight, to be delivered in about a fortnight. The Siren, 16 gun brig, Captain William Smith (b), was inspected at Woolwich ou Saturday by the Surveyor of the Navy, and left immediately afterwards for Ports mouth, towed by the Monkey steam-vessel, Second Master William Bryant. The Geyser steam-frigate left Woolwich on Sunday morning for Sheerness, where she will be coppered and made ready for sea without delay. Captain Wright, and the party of Royal Marines under his charge, embarked in her for a passage to Sheerness to join the Alfred frigate of 50 guns, commissioned for the pendant of Com modore Purvis, on the Rio Janeiro station. Mr. H. B. Blanckly and Mr. B. G. Bowles, Mates, are appointed from _the Devastation to the heroine. ROYAL SOUTH . LONDON FLORICULTURAL SOCIETY.—A general meeting of the above Society was held at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, on - -Thursday evening last, W. T. Vicei.President, in the chair. There was a very full attendance of members, considering the unfavourable state of the weather. The annual report was read by the Svcretary, from which it appears that the Society is in a very flourishing condi tion, having, at the present time, between 200 and 300 members on the books. During the past year five flower shows have been held, being one in addition to those held in former years, and 276 prizes of gold and silver medals, cu p s , &c., were awarded for successful productions in floriculture and horticulture. It was also stated that the Society had received a great accession o f Iio3;:li - miiontige in the person of her Majesty the Queen Dowager, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, and his Royal Highness the Duke of Cam bridge. After several resolutions had been passed, ex pressing thanks to, and the re-election of the Committee of Management, a vote of thanks to the Ch a i rman was proposed by J. P. Burnard, Esq., and carried unani mously, and the meeting adjourned. On Sunday the 31st ult., the Right Rev. Bishop ' Terrot inducted the Rev. T. G. S. Suther, A.B. ' to the pastoral charge of St. George's Episcopal Chapel, York place, to which he had been unanimously elected by the vestry, as successor to. the Rev. R. Q. Shannon, A. 8., now one of the Prebendaries of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin. On the occasion the Right Rev. Bishop de livered a learned and impressive charge to the pastor and congregation. The Rev. Philip Kelland, M.A., Professor of Mathematics in the University, read the g prayers, and officiated as Chaplain to the m orning Paper, MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM TEE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. POST.—It is rather expected that when the circum- ' stances connected with the Exchequer bill fraud come to be fully developed, the origin of the great fires in our dockyards will be better understood b y the p ublic than it is at present. There never was a doubt that the foolhardy attempt of young Louis Napoleon was directed by a party of Stock Exchange speculators, and the pre- veiling idea at the time, with those who have the best opportunity of informing themselves in many cases, was that the burning of her Majesty's ships at Devonport and Sheerness was not the result of accident, but that it was accomplished through the agency of the same persons. It is very scandalous that an attempt should be made to throw the odium of the Exchequer bill fraud upon an old gentleman long since consigned to the tomb ; the more so as the infamy of the affair is, in this way, made to attach to the widow and children of the individual named. From the explanations given of the circum stances, it is quite clear to our mind that the party is in no respect to be held answerable for the offence. TIMES.—The resolution among the holders of Ex chequer bills to present them for money when they be come due, and never to have anything more to do with such documents, is said to have become general, and may be considered to have arisen entirely from the impound . . ing of bills declared spurious by the which has caused a feeling of indignation, that increases the more the cause is reflected on. It is felt that the Govern ment most unfairly puts itself in an advantageous posi tion against the holder, for, whereas the latter would have been able to commence an action on his bill, and leave the onus of disproving it to the Government, his si tuation is now so entirely changed, that he has the onus of supporting his own claim. Besides, the proceeding of making the party against whom an action might be brought, the depositary of the document on which the action would be grounded, is in itself so absurd, that the common sense of all men of business revolts against it ; and although the existence of the spurious bills has, in a great measure, deteriorated the market, it is pro bable that the acts of the Treasury will be found to have created a more lasting dislike to the unfunded securities than the actual demonstration of the fraud. Some of the details of the measures taken at the Treasury have given much dissatisfaction. For instance, some are displeased that the notice issued yesterday led them to imagine that they were at liberty to leave their bills with the Treasury any day they pleased, and get them on the next day, if genuine ; whereas it is found that the people at the Treasury are too much occupied to give the bills immediate attention, and that a visit to the office merely entitles a holder to a certain order of precedence, both in the delivery and the return of them, and that in some instances they may have to wait even for weeks before their turns. It has further transpired this morning, that among the bills that are either spurious, or at least derived from the same quarter with those that are known to be spu rious, there are a great number of bills of 500/. each, and that these are bills, moreover, confided to a distinct officer, with whom Mr. E. Beaumont Smith, who issued the spurious 1,0001. bills, has nothing to do. Hence it would follow that the parties through - whom they were brought into the market mixed up a large amount of spurious with genuine bills, or that some other person has been guilty of fraud. It is said that this matter is now under investigation at the Treasury, and that an express has been sent off to Scotland to the gentleman concerned in that department, who happened to be away at the time, in order that he may attend at the Treasury and give the requisite explanations. Thus the difficulty of the si tuation of Government increases, as it were every day, for they have evidently lost all power of distinguishing spu rious from genuine bills, except by a reference back to parties who are known to a certain extent to have made spurious issues. Instances are occurring dailx, in which even the 1,0001. bills belonging to the suspicious issue were declared on inspection to be genuine, and this is said to be the case with the larger amount held by the Chamberlain of London, who yet is under apprehension, when the same bills go up to the Treasury for examina tion under the new official order, that they will be pro nounced spurious. It is said further to-day, that the Bank have placed an attachment on the transfer of a large amount of stock, created by a delivery of Exchequer bills for the new funding operation, and that consequently the parties can neither get their stock nor their money. It is im possible to describe the anxiety and confusion on this subject, which exists among the whole of the moneyed interest. HERALD.—The Exchequer bill excite= nt appears to have almost subsided, and people are disposed to wait more quietly the final action of the Treasury in regard to the bills fraudulently put into circulation. It is con sidered, however, as not improbable, that no decided course will be taken, or indications of it given, until after the trial of Mr. E. B. Smith, when, if any further reve lations or information remain withheld so long, the whole facts of this extraordinary case will necessarily transpire in the most authentic shape, and will be relied upon per haps in justification of whatever determination may be taken or arrangements made respecting the illegitimate issues quoad the holders. CHRONICLE.—Our readers will perceive that Lord Monteagle is now obliged to be at his desk by the un usually early hour of eight in the morning, and to con tinue at work until dusk. If he or his deputy had at tended better before, they would have had less to do now, and such vulgar people as City correspondents would not have been able to bite their thumb at either. We have seen some of the stamped bills to-day that have passed the test of the counterfoil and 'received the ge nuine indorsation. The instrument used, as we re marked yesterday, is some old concern of the reign of the late King, then employed in the stamping of country notes; and now promoted to the station of distinguish ing genuine Exchequer bills. The holders of bills who are not certain that they came direct from the Treasury in exchange for others of an antecedent date are much at a loss how to act. The Goveanent notice says there is no reason to sup pose that ar bills so exchanged are other than genuine, but those who purchased in open market cannot always trace their billS to the first holder, and if they send them up under those circumstances they do so at the risk of having them "retained to wait the directions of the Treasury;" merely because it is possible that the check in the margins may not correspond with the counterfoil kept at the Treasury : We should be sorry to incur the responsibility of giving any advice to home fide holders of Exchequer bills, to send up their bills under the Exchequer-office notice, whatever might be the manner in which they came into their possession, because it is possible that Smith may have issued spuri ous,bills in course of the regular exchange, although the First Lord of the Treasury and the Chancellor of the Exchequer state that they have no reason to think so ;,bat as far as we have been able to ascertain (and may presume to state what we have reason to think) our belief is that. few, if any, of the spurious bills were bought and sold in open market. They were given in deposit, and lodged with the lenders in security for money advanced. In that view of the case those gentle men who bought the bills they now possess, in the usual course would not run so much risk of having their pro perty impounded. SUN.—No further communication has been received from the Treasury in reference to the Exchequer Bill affair. Matters in the City generally look rather better to-day. The accounts from the Continent are rather more satisfactory. The Belgian enteute is scarcely thought of; and as respects Portugal, matters have for a long time been in so uncertain a state that they are not considered to be worse now than ever they were. If Spain remains tranquil, this will go in favour of the sister peninsular kingdom. Our trade with Lisbon is not expected to re vive yet, after the many recent failures. In the Funds there was to-day an appearance of more elasticity, and on the whole a fair amount of business was done. The Consols for immediate transfer were at 884 to 88a, and for Account 883 : to 881. There was again not a single bargain in Exchequer Bills ; East India Bonds were rather better, being at par to 2s. premium. Time New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. were at 98i to 9S- ; and the Three per Cent. Annuities at 87 to 87; ; Bank Stock was more buoyant at 164 to 1641-; and India Stock advanced to 244 and 245. The news from Spain is looked upon in a more satis factory light, and it is intimated that, ere many days, remittances will be on the way to this country, in part payment of the interest agreed upon in Surra y Bull's last proposition. The Active Bonds rose to 204, and 21 ; Brazil Stock was steady at 57 ; Colombian at 191- ; Mexican at 258 ; and Peruvian at 131- ; Belgian Bonds were at 1001-, ex-div., having partly recovered the depres sion of yesterday. occasioned by the news of the Belgian e»teute. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents were at 511. I. In the Share Market there was also some appearance of improvement. We cannot yet notice any rally in the Foreign Ex changes. The negotiations of Bills to-day were 25f. bon to 70c. on Paris ; 1 2 4 1 to on Amsterdam; .12 31- on Antwerp; 14 91- on Frankfort; and 9 54 to 55 on Trieste. We are happy to learn that Mr. Davidge, the very successful proprietor of the Surrey Theatre, is so far restored to health as to be able to resume his profes sional duties. A few days back he gave a dinner to .a select circle of friends, on which occasion he presented to his medical attendant, Dr. Marsden, senior surgeon of the Royal Free Hospital, a table snuffbox, value fifty guineas, containing a splendid gold medallion, on which was engraver a high compliment to the talents and cha racter of that gentleman. THE CHARTISTS :-- Mr. Teargus O'Connor and the Rev. Mr. Brewster having challenged one an other to debate the relative merits of moral and physical force as the instrument for securing the People's Char ter, terms were arranged last week by their respective ' friends, and a grand gladiatorial combat of words took place between the champions on Saturday last; in the open air at Paisley, in the presence of about 4,000 people. Both gentlemen spoke at great length in support of their respective creeds as Chartists, and both claimed the majority when the vote was taken. It was then proposed that the field should be divided, and Mr. O'Connor, wav ing his hat, called upon all his friends to follow him. This was immediately done, and Mr. O'Connor climbed a tree, and made it his rostrum. It was now evident that Mr. Brewster had an overwhelming majority. The whole affair must have been supremely ridiculous. The remains of an old wooden bridge were found lately, in digging a foundation for the new brick bridge af. the Junction wateriugs, recently erected near Lydd,-Kent..—Dovet chionicie: LORD PALMERSTON. On Friday a numerous and highly respectable deputa tion, headed by Lieutenant• Colonel Sir William Parke, D.L., the Right Rev. Dr. Burke, John R. Somers, Esq., ; B. 0. Cogan, Esq., J.P., and Martin Madden, Esq., waited upon Lord Viscount Palmerston, at M'Bride's Hotel, for the purpose of presenting his Lord ship with an address from the Liberals of this town and county, on his arrival in Sligo. Ms Lordship received the deputation in a most gracious and cordial manner. The following is the address read by Sir William Parke, with his Lordship's eloquent reply thereto : May it please your Lordship to receive this short but sincere address from a deputation of the Liberals of the town and county of Sligo. We need scarcely say that your Lordship's high character as an indulgent and benevolent landlord, and a wise and Liberal statesman, was amply sufficient to secure the unanimous concurrence of all those who have been consulted on the subject; and we are convinced, from our own knowledge of the country, that millions in the Green Isle, could their sentiments be collected, would cheerfully concur in this address to your Lordship. - On our part, we think it but proper to state that we maintain a grateful remembrance of the services of her Majesty's late Ministry, of which your Lordship was so distinguished a Member, and to ex press a hope that the broad principles of justice which they advocated will, ere long, be triumphant. In con clusion, we beg to state that we hail with pleasure your Lordship's visit amongst us, and hope it will frequently be renewed; the presence of such an enlightened states man and good landlord will always give extreme satis faction to the Liberals of the town and county of Sligo, of which the present deputation, now having the honour to address your Lordship, forms a part. lIIS LORDSHIP'S REPLY.

TOWER OF LONDON. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The interior of the Armoury is still burning, and three engines are kept constantly playing on the mass of burning a Consisting as it does of such com bustible matters—gunstocks, molten barrels, lead, clothing, and burning rafters, amongst which is an im mense quantity of old Ordnance records—there is no doubt it will be many days before the fire is completely ex ting,nished. It is understood an inquiry of the most searching cha racter will be entered into by the Board of Ordnance, and a preliminary meeting has been held to-day at Tower. It is also rumoured that a Police Magistrate will assist in the inquiry. The conduct of some part of the military at the commencement of the fire on Satur day night demands the most rigid inquiry. Many of them, under pretence of assisting the residents in the Tower broke their furniture in the most wanton manner, and actually forced open the desks both in Mr . Forman's office and extracted a 51. note, as also Mr. Ferrier's dealt at the Map Office, from which they took nine sovereigns. They also stove in a cask of rum belonging to Mr. Allen, after which their conduct for a short time was more like men at the sack of a town than that of a force to which the civil residents had to look for assistance and succour, under the awful circumstances in which they were placed. In justice we must say, that when celled to their senses by their officers, and under discipline, their exertions were most strenuous, and every thing was dons! by them to prevent the conflagration, estendingio the Terrace and Chapel, which, had the flames reolled, thees., can be no doubt but that the whole of the tower woUVI have been burnt to the ground, and a number of lives sacrificed. The Morning Chronicle states, that Captain Davis, of the Scots Fusiliers, saved the Duke of York's sword arid sash, from the Grand Armoury. The fact is, that Mr. Thomas Spinks, son of life. Spinks, of. the Surve4r- General's office, rushed into the Armoury, and being 11II• able to carry the glass ease which contained the sword, &c., broke the glass, took out the sword and sash, awl, wishing to remain to render any further assistance in his power, gave it up to Captain Davis's servant, with directions to take it immediately to a place of safety, and he gave it to Captain Davis, who, with Adjutant Waller rendered themselves conspicnous for their zeal and activity during the whole of this melancholy affair. The escape of Mr. Pett's house, which is the Develin Tower, and is contiguous to the Grand Armoury, being Separated only by a range of offices now erecting for the Small Arms Department, was miraculous, as the flames at one time were fast approaching it ; but fortu 7 nately the wind veering at the critical moment, and the roof of the Armoury falling in immediately after, caused it to escape without any material injury. Mr. Pett neither moved his furniture, nor was any of it in jured, as he had the precaution to keep the soldiers from entering it. On the right hand side of the Ar moury, the house occupied by Messrs. Allen and Elder caught three times, but fortunately wag got under before much damage was done, or else the whole of the terrace, consisting of the official residences of many of the civil officers of the Ordnance-office at the Tower, would have been destroyed. The troops stationed at the Tower are the Royal Artillery and the Scots Fusilier Guards, many of whom showed themselves most efficient, and acted in a most praiseworthy manner. It is to be hoped that those men who disgraced their comrades by acts of pil lage will be discovered and severely punished. The loss is computed at 500,0001., independent of the various interesting relics of by-gone "deeds of glory" destroyed. The fire, no doubt, originated in the Bowyer Tower, in a workshop called the Round Table, used by the viewers and others employed in the small-arm de partment, and supposed to have been caused by the flues of the stove getting over heated. Of course, at present all is conjecture, but this appears the most probable cause of the calamity. SPIRIT OF MODERN SURGERY: Now that the spirit of which we are to speak is somewhat less truculent than it has lately been, we may condemn it more thoroughly without fear of being deemed personal. It cannot be denied that the sur gery of the last few years has been marked by more rashness than ever before disgraced it. There has been more of art and less of science, more of dexterity and less of judgment, more of zeal and less of discretion, more of action and imitation and less of deliberation, than in any period of the history of surgery to which we can refer. To prove this let us adduce an example. Diefftc hacl,, by way of experiment (for the scientific induction in which tl e proceeding was said to be founded was too hollow to bear the most superficial examination, and could not have led so reasonable a man as Dieffenbach has proved himself nu other occasions to be, to undertake the operation)— by w.y of experiment, we say, determined to cut a la ge slice out of the middle of tl e tongue far the pur pose of curing those who stars me-. Long before the real result of the operation could be knows, the news of its having been performat spread to France and Engles d ; and in best, countries there were found surgeons who, without thought (to speak most charitably), imitated the pro. ceeding, and even claimed credit Ice their speedy adop tion and recommendation of the supposed improvement. But what has been the result of the invention and the imitation ? Why, as far as we can learn, that not a patient has been cured ; that three, confessedly, have been killcd ; and that one or more have lost the greater part of the tongue by sloughing. Now things like these might have been excusable if they had happened in the performance of an operation which long experience bad proved to be, in general, successful ; or in one Which, though not tested by experience, had offered a reason able prospect of success ; but in a case where expe rience had not had time to give its decision, and where the probabilities, as calculated by many well capable of judging, were against success, they are utterly disgrace ful ; and, as signs of the times, they . stamp the cha racter of the surgery of the day with an indelible blot. Nor can we say much more of all the other opera tions for the same disorder , multiplied and var ied as they have been with a recklessness and want of calcu lation which would have been discreditable had the sub jects been dogs instead of men. Shall we, to show ye t mor e plainly the spirit of our modern surgery, turn from this to any other subject like it cast ur.timtly fro m the womb of rash experiment ? Shall we look to the few months' history of the opera tion for squinting? to see how, before the first patient's wound; were yet healed, others were submitted to it ; boa', before the result, whi c h of necessity TC-• quired mouths that it mi g h t b e sa f e l y seen, was yet nearly evident ; hundred s more o f exper i mcr ts were tried ; how, before th e genera l i ssue o f t h e p l an was known, all who squinted were stopp ed in the street and almost kidnapped to have their recti cut ; how m' n disputed who had first invented, who had first irn potted, the new plan, when th e su bj ec t o f their dispute might i n plainer terms have been, who, on the least evidence of right, had dared to do the most ; haws in the end, numbers have been found uncured, bur-' hers damaged, and numbers cured, though 0 ° one knows exactly how or why they fared Letter than their neighbours; and how, at the present time, the real p a th o l ogy o f stra bi smus is as obscure a s it was five y ears ago, b e f ore a rectus h a d been severe d.
