The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which far some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the et dinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re quested to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases, —as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the communication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta tion Fee of I/.," without which no notice whatever can be taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable secrecy may be relied on.

DREADFUL AND FATAL ACC ID ENT.—On Tuesday last, as some men were repairing one of the furnaces at Dowlais Works, in removing some part of the old work, the inner wall fell in, burying eight of the poor fellows under the ruins. Immediately the accident took place, a number of workmen commenced clearing the rubbish away, when, after great labour, they succeeded in reaching the unfortunate sufferers; they found that five of them were quite dead, and the re maining three so seriously injured that but faint hopes are entertainel of their recovery. We understand that four of the deceased have left widows and families to lament their untimely and melancholy death.—A coroner's in. quest was held on the bodies on Thursday, when the jury returned a verdict of ."

The Driver steamer is hourly expected to arrive from the eastward with Mr.Hendcrson, Second Master- Attendant at this Dockyard, and the party of men that took the Vixen from this port to Chatham.

In the present (April) Number of the Gentleman's Magazine, we find it asserted, by a writer signing himself J. R., that the " warriors" of the South of 'France are entitled to a superiority over those of the north of that kingdom. It is necessary to premise, that he fixes on the Loire as the boundary,—a very unequal division, and especially as he seems to depend rather on the su perior number than the real eminence of the names ho produces ; that he limits his view of the latter to mo dern times, the superiority previous to the Revolution having been greatly the other way—and that amongst the warriors of France he omits her seamen, those of all grades from the north being indisputably the most distinguished. But, even according to the writer's own limitations, we believe this conclusion to be most erroneous. He commences by asserting the majority of Bonaparte's first-created eighteen Marshals to be from the south, but amongst this number he cites two (Davoust and Serrurier) who were from the north of the specified line : six others were also north of it, and Perignon's military services are known to few. The bare majority of number amongst these is but trifling, therefore ; but when he proceeds to say that " a numerous host of subordinate officers might be added to the. foregoing, of eminent fame, crowned by Napoleon himself, to whom on the whole the Northerns —highly distinguished as several have been—such as Dumourier, Hoche, Kleber, Kellerman, St. Cyr, Jou. bert, Marceau, Ney, Augereau, &c., must still yield precedence," we are unable to discover the justice of his sentence. Napoleon, indeed, was pre-eminent, but he was no Frenchman ; neither, indeed, was another able, though infinitely inferior genius, Massena, he hav ing been born at Nice, never (we believe) part of the French territory. It is true that, properly speaking, the provinces of Alsace, Lorraine, and French Flanders, which have certainly produced much more than their just proportion of the most eminent soldiers of the French army, are German and Belgian, but being long included in the French territory, are generally consi• dered as belonging to it. We are justified in taking them into the account ; and we certainly cannot per ceive that France south of the Loire can produce any equal or greater number of names that can justly claim any superiority in military genius to their northern con temporaries, Kleber, Moreau, Dumourier, Hoche, the two Kellermans, St. Cyr, Ney, Rapp, &c. Kleber, second probably to no French general of modern times, was a German in everything but the name ; so was Ney, pre-eminent for his genius in actual combat, and the younger Kellerman, who has been said to have con tributed more to the victory of Marengo than either Desaix or Bonaparte. Jomini and the Regniers, re markable for their knowledge of the theory of war, and the first confessedly one of the first of military writers, were Swiss. The north-cast corner of France may safely challenge a comparison for military talent amongst their generals with any other district of similar extent, all incompa rably the nest men, and in many respects the best (pro bably, in proportion to their population, the most nume rous) soldiers in the French army are from that and the other northern regions : though some of the south erns claim (though we think very unjustly) a superiority in intelligence and activity for their countrymen. The Alsatians probably bear a stronger general resemblance to the English than any other people. Fine men arc not unfrequent in Burgundy, and perhaps more common in Franche Compte, whose natives are a peculiar set, wild and jovial, with something of the Irish manner. We will shortly furnish a list of the pri nc ip a l F renc h generals who have flourished since the commencement of the Revolution, with their birth-places annexed, for the Leneflt of such of our readers as may not have the means of otherwise ascertaining them, and who may then be able to decide whether we are unjust in deny ing the claims to any martial superiority in the South over the North of France.—Naval and Military Gazette.

LANDLORD AND TENANT. (From the Southern Reporter.) At length a truly wise and patriotic movement is pro posed to the Irish people —one which every man may join, and which, if firmly and prudently conducted, must result in solid advantages and splendid prosperity to the country. We cannot but begin to hope that it may be so when we see the two great sections of rho Liberal party amongst us uniting for work usefully and intelligibly. In our last number we directed the atten tion of our readers to the subject of the present tenure of land in Ireland, and, in resuming it, we would refer to the important proceedings in Dublin at the Repeal Association on Monday, as demonstrating that it is not hopeless to effect a cordial union amongst all classes of Reformers on any subject plainly and clearly practicable. The efforts of the Irish people for the last twenty years have been gigantic and most noble ; their sacrifices have been incredible, and their endurance unshaken. But what have they as yet attained? Some few abstract rights and places for some lawyers! The great wrongs of the people are as yet unredressed ; the poisonous evils that taint the heartsprings and deform the face of society have as yet found no remedy, and it is a fearful subject to reflect on that so much blood and toil have been wasted. We are quite aware that abstract terms and abstract rights—Emancipation, Reform—include the principles, and are the foundation of every day happi ness, and detailed improvement ; but, with so many conflicting' interests, with' the deep-seated prejudices, and jealous monopolies of Ireland, we are convinced that the same ends may be substantially attained, and not unfrequently, under forms more palatable to the shortsighted fears of many whose station and influence must be always of value to the cause of the people. Such we believe to be the present question. There appears little doubt but that it will become a rallying one. The Ulster and Repeal Associations—Sharman Crawford and Mr. O'Connell have adopted it cordially —it is ably supported by the press—and all we require now is the wise and generous co-operation of the land lords. This is, to be sure, at first sight an enormous difficulty, but we do not believe it to be insurmountable. It is proverbially hard to convince a monopolist of the value and equity of their composition, and it may seem equally quixotic to induce Irish landlords to forego their present advantages. But there are reasons, and these very grave ones—for thinking that this almost Utopian consummation may not be impossible. For many years, the great p anacea f or a ll an d every form of Irish evil was a Parliamentary Committee, and accordingly we have reports on every imaginable subject. Some of these reports are extremely valu able, and most ably compiled. On the subject of the " State of Ireland" there are many of different poli tical complexions, and returned by both Houses. In all of them the remarkable feature stands out pro minently " the immense value of land in Ireland ;" in many places it is described as a necessary of lite, and, strong as is the expression, there can be no doubt that, with our population, it is the exact truth. Including absentees, the entire number of landed proprietors in Ireland is from 10,000 to 12,000. The standard of rent is the highest value of the land, subject to the deduction only of the meanest and scantiest provision on which the tenant can me net% to exist. This is a frightful picture. Men are spe culating as to the source of Irish evils and Irish degra dation. demure and hypocritical economists are horrified at the terrible tragedies that from time to time have been enacted amongst us. But in common truth, or common justice, are not these two facts sufficient to account for all, and were it even more and more hor rible? But the system does not stop there. The Irish are inured to suffering and oppression. They would to lerate the monopoly and extortion of their masters— but then their masters have been also for the last hundred years the law makers Statute after statute has been enacted, conferring new and formidable powers, and these powers have never been allowed to be inactive. A deadly system of extermination has been adopted and worked out on cold calculation, so that, with a soil capable of maintaining treble its present popula lation, there are many hundreds of thousands who can not obtain, at any rent, however extravagant, permis sion to live otherwise than on the roads or in a work house. Let us briefly state some facts, Ireland is an agri cultural country, almost entirely without manufactures. In a nation of nine millions there are only ten thousand landed ptoprleters. Of that nation, from the terrific system of depopulation in operation, two millions are in each year either wholly, or in part, destitute. Can the ten thousand imagine that things can so continue ? But it is not to the fears of any class that we would principally appeal, and, fortunately, in the present mat ter, the interests of the landlord and his tenantry are identical. It is admitted by all that the institution of property is the basis of civilization. Many of the faults that appear inherent in the character of the Irish peasant, would be removed if a fixed property gave him a motive and a reward for his industry. The system of late years in England and Ireland has been to break up all small farms, and then the value of such proceeding is instanced by the large surplus produce to be disposed of. In the first place it is evi dent that the surplus produce could be as well disposed of to a resident healthy yeomanry, as to an enfeebled city population, and secondly, it is a great deal more than doubtful, whether a large surplus is obtained, or es cheaply from large farms or from smaller ones. The Irish peasant has shown, in the temperance movement, that, under disheartening circumstances, he can exercise the most powerful self-controul ; in the experiments of late years, landlords have found no difficulty in pro curing the adoption of scientific systems of agriculture; it may, therefore,be well for them to consider whether they would not consult, for their own interests, in seeking also the happiness and comfort of the peasantry. The evils of Ireland never arose from the subdivision of land, but from the uncertainty of its tenure. The high rents ex acted tended also, no doubt, to waste the capital of the small occupier, and in the end encumbered with paupers rack-rented estates. But things are different now, and the time appears peculiarly favourable. We address the landed gentry of Ireland seriously and earnestly. There are many amongst them of high and excellent feel ing, generous and Christian impulses, and their example may do much. The time is favourable, because the character of the people is decidedly improved—circumstances arc' favourable, because there is no necessity of call ing on the landlords to make any sacrifice of their incomes improved systems of cultivation, the certainty of a market in England, and the frugal habits of the people will enable them to pay punctually even the high rents now exacted. But to effect this, it is necessary everywhere, but above all in Ireland, that there should be certainty and justice in the tenure. At present the very lives of the tenant and of his family are in the hands, and hang on the breath of the land lord. Certainty then is the first requisite. The tenure should be for a fixed and considerable period. Equity is a second and indispensable improvement. At the expiring of his lease the occupier should be entitled either to a fair proportion of his capital expended, or to the option of a renewal at a proportionably calculated rent. In the details of a change so extensive, many other points will require and obtain serious attention, but these aro its leading and necessary principles. Many will think any appeal to the sympathies of the londholder idle and ridiculous—we do not think so— when his sympathies are united with his interests. But the thing can be accomplished without him—more slowly, but as surely. If the Legislature were to enact that estates set up for sale under the Equity Courts should be offered in small parcels for competition, can there be a doubt as to the large prices that would be given gladly for a small independence ? A few years would effect an immense change. Sooner or later such change will be—we call on every good man to help those who are working to accomplish it. SOUTH-EASTERN AND DOVER RAILWAY.— The stupendous works of this railway between Dover and Folkestone, which are, we should say, unexampled in the experience of modern engineering, have been actively re sumed this spring by a large force of workmen. The line lies along the seashore, and is formed either by boring tunnels through the bowels of the taller cliffs themselves, by embankment on their ledges, or by cutting to the level in the crowns of the less formidable eminences. It is by no means Utopian to conjecture that i this most impo r t an t rail road will be available tothe public n a couple mere years, and perhaps sooner, as we understand the shareholders' list now comprises many of the most substantial and eater rt b ud enen archin g l carri ed state, tunnelling e wbo d eh vorenwdth,heetowards through re ot thehi h e e erel partshi Folkestone, ao , ikk and eiossft con sideredo ttnhheee, prising men of the day.

TO THE POLITICAL AND SOCIAL REFORMERS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM. BRETHREN,—In addressing you as fellow-labourers in the great cause of human liberty, we would wish to rivet this important truth on your mind : You MUST BECOME YOUR OWN SOCIAL AND POLITICAL REGENERATORS, OR YOU WILL NEVER ENJOY FREEDOM. For true liberty cannot be conferred by Acts of Parliament or decrees of Princes, but must spring up from the knowledge, morality, and public virtue of our population. Be assured, fellow countrymen, that those who have hitherto been permit. ted to rule the destinies of nations—who in their mad. nets or folly have cursed the land with wars, cruelty, op pression, and crime, will ever maintain their power and ascendancy whilst they have ignorant and demoralised slaves to approve and execute their mandates. Though revolution were to follow revolution, and changes were to be continually effected in cur Constitution, laws, and go vernment, unless the social and political superstructure were based upon the intelligence and morality of the people, they would only have exchanged despotism for despotism, and one set of oppressors for another. If, therefore, you world escape your present social and political bondage, and benefit your race, you must bestir yourselves, and make every sacrifice TO BUILD UP THE SACRED TEMPLE OF YOUR OWN LIBERTIES, or by your neg lect and apathy bequeath to your offspring an increase of degradation and wrong. You cannot suppose that those who revel in the spoils of labour, and live by the wretched ness they have created, will be instrumental in promot ing the political and social improvement of the people. They may talk of liberty while they are forging your fetters, may profess sympathy while they are adding insult to wrong, and may talk of instructing you while they arc devising the most efficient means for moulding you into passive slaves; but they will contemptuously spurn every proposal for establishing equality of political rights and social obligations—the enduring basis of liberty, prosperity, and happiness. Let every man among you, then, who is desirous Of sec ing the bounties of heaven made subset\ lent to human en joyment—who would bless our land w.th peace and human brotherhood, and cause the intellectual and .moral capa bilities man is endowed with to spring forth in all their usefulness and excellence, anxiously to inquire how be can best aid the holy cause of man's social regeneration and political freedom. Tracing most of our social grievances to class legisla tion, we have proposed a political reform upon the prin ciples of the People's Charter; we have made it the po lar-star of our agitation, and have resolved by all just and peaceful means to cause it to become the law of our country. Believing it to have truth for its basis, and the happiness of all for its end, we conceive that it needs not the vio lence of passion, the bitterness of party spirit, nor the arms of aggressive warfare for its support; its principles need only to be unfolded to be appreciated, and being appre ciated by the majority will be established in peace. But while we implore you to direct your undivided at tention to the attainment of that just political measure, we would urge you to make your agitation in favour of it more efficient and productive of social benefit than it has been hitherto. We have wasted glorious means of useful ness in foolish displays and gaudy trappings, seeking to captivate the sense rather than inform the mind, and apcing the proceedings of a tinselled and corrupt aris tocracy rather than aspiring to the mental and moral dig nity of a pure democracy. Our public meetings have on too many occasions been arenas of passionate invective, party spirit, and personal idolatry, rather than public assemblies for calmly delibe rating and freely discussing national or local grievances, or as schools for the advancement of our glorious cause by the dissemination of facts and inculcation of principles, as it is by such teachings that our population will be pre pared to use wisely the political power they are now seeking to obtain. We are therefore desirous of seeing those means applied to a higher and nobler purpose, that of developing the mental and moral energies of the population, to the great end .of their political freedom and social happiness. As no earthly power can prevent an intelligent people from ob taining their rights, nor all the appliances of corruption permanently enslave them, we are anxious above all things of seeing them instructed in their political rights and social duties. Though the attainment of political power is essential to enable them to improve to any extent their physical con dition, yet we believe that a vast increase of social enjoy ment might be effected (despite a corrupt and degrading Government), if sobriety and moral culture were more ge nerally diffused. And therefore we are desirous of seeing our political teachers disseminating unpalatable truths against drunkenness and immorality of every description, and by precept and example endeavouring to rescue oar brethren from the thraldom of their own vices, and from servilely imitating the corruptions and vices of those above them. As the children of to-day will in a few years be called upon to exercise tin rights and duties of men, it becomes our paramount duty to qualify them for their future sta tion, and not permit them to be moulded to the several purposes of priestcrafr, sectarianism, and charity-mongers ; but to devise, maintain, and execute a wise and just system of education, calculated to develope all the powers and energies God has given them, to the end that they may enjoy their own existence, and extend the greatest amount of happiness to all mankind. \Vith no disposition to oppose the Associations already formed, but with an anxious desire to see all those inte rested in the social and political improvement of their fel low-men united in one general body to effect it, we pro pose that such an Association be established, and that the following be its objects. NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM, FOR PROMOTING THE POLI TICAL AND SOCIAL IMPROVEMENT OF THE PEOPLE.* 1.

Such libraries to vary as much as possible from each other, and be sent in rotation from one town or vil:age in the district to another, and to be lent freely to the members. 5. To print from time to time such TRACTS and PAMPH LETS as the Association may consider necessary for pro moting- its objects ; and when its organization is complete, to publish a monthly or quarterly national periodical. 6. To erect PUBLIC HALLS, Or SCHOOLS FOR THE PEO PLE, throughout the kingdom, upon the most approved principles, and in such dittricts as may be necessary. Such halls to be used during the day as INFANT, PREPARATORY, and HIGH SCHOOLS, in which the chil dren shall be educated on the most approved plans the association can devise ; embracing physical, men tal, moral, and political instruction : and used of an evening by adults for PUBLIC LECTURES on physical, moral, and political science—for READINGS, DISCUSSIONS, MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENTS, DANCING, and such other healthful and rational recreations as may serve to instruct and cheer the industrious classes after their hours of toil, and prevent the formation of vicious and in toxicating habits. Such halls to have two commodious playgrounds, and, where practicable, a pleasure-garden attached to each : apartments for the teachers, rooms for s s a t t g e r e rn s:s e a sy such en hot and cold baths, for a small museum, a laboratory and t o a r pp d ro i a s y t ne r d i d et ms a yi mental, moral, and general workshop, where the members and their chil dren may be taught experiments in science, as well as the first principles of the most useful trades. purposeB7 ..

ARREST OF A SWINDLER IN PARIS. A person who is charged with having succeeded in obtaining in London rather more than 2,0001. upon forged bills, has been arrested. He is a Spaniard, a handsome, gentlemanly man, between 30 and 40 years of age. He went to London about six weeks ago, in company with a highly respectable Englishman, to ne gociate the sale of a patent for a new steam-paddle, of which a French nobleman is the inventor, and for the experiments respecting which he is said to have ad vanced all the requisite funds, the patent in England being :taken out in his own name. Not having succeeded in the object for which the parties went to London, the English gentleman left the Spaniar.i. in London, and went into the icountry. It ap pears, that immediately after the departure of this gent'e:nan the other party discounted these fore - ed bills by means of a forged letter of introduc tion, and started immediately for France with his plunder. He had not been hue long, however, before bills announcing the fraud, and giving the numbers of the notes which had been paid to him, were ,distri buted amon g the b a nkers and mcinii,tbangers. fev • days ago be called upon a money changer in the Pa lais Royal, , and presented six hundred-pound Bank of England notes for change into French money. The bill announcing the robbery was banging in the shop, but Wore the mbiey changer could compare the numbers tue other caught sight of it, and keine disltely grasping the notes, which he had laid on the counter, ran out of the shop, and was out of si g ht before the money changer could procure the means of arresting him. He was afterwards taken at his lodgings in the Rue Lepelletier. He denied being the party charged with the fraud ; but it appears that no doubt is entertained of his identity. Whe ther he can 'be prosecuted here for the forgery in London, or whether the Government will con stnit to his extradition, is a question. In a recent case the Government refused to give up an offender to the police officer who came from London to apprehend him, and there is in this affair the additional difficulty of the effeeder being the subject of another State. If the French would not give up an Englishman to his own Government, how can they give up a Spaniard ? The best thing the parties can do is to terrify the cri minal out of the money which he has obtained, and the great .r port'on of which is probably still in his posses sion, tor only a few notes have been traced, and they are of small amount. I understand that he moved in a very respectable sphere here, and the gentleman whose name he forgel to the letter of introduction states that he had so good an opinion of him that if he had applied to him for an introduction as for himself, he would have given it. It would seem, however, that by taking a false name the offender hoped to escape de teetion.—Lettcrfronz Paris. DEATH OF DR. JAMES BROWNE. Many of our readers will be grieved to hear that Dr. James Browne, of this city, died on Thursday. For about two years, Dr. Browne's health had been much shaken, and none of his friends expected that he could long survive. His name is well known in the lite rafrure of his country, for the extent of his learning and research, and the rhetorical and argumentative energy with which be brought his acquirements to bear on the many subjects which, during a life of almost ceaseless literary exertion, he discussed. He was for several years Editor of the Mercury; but he is perhaps more widely, and will be more permanently, known for the many valuable arti cles he communicated to the " Encyclopaidia Bri tannica," particularly on the more abstruse branches of early history, grammar and etymology, the arts of war, and biography. His acquirements as an investi gator of Egyptian history and hieroglyphics are also widely kn own . He possessed a powerful eloquence, which he was always ready d fund of ewe to the cause of humanity and liberal opinions—often with more regard to his feelings as a public m an , than to his interests a s an individual. He carried like qualifications into social life, where his con versation was distinguished by much eloquence of sentiment, and brilliancy of wit. It is unusual on occasions like the present, to talk of failings ; but those of Dr. Browne were not unfrequently th e subject of rallying remarks with his best friends, be cause they were not of a character for which they had occasion to blush. They were those of a warm heart, and, perhaps, somewhat excitable temperament, and in all quarters they were admitted to have no leaven of selfishness or malignity. For about a year Dr. Browne enjoyed a small pension from Government. It is ear nestly to be desired that in this case the Royal bounty may be continued to those for whose sake it aunt have had its chief value in his eyes.—Scotsman.

CHRISTIANITY IN CHINA. --A Dative of Chitin, now at Rome, furnishes the following statistical details to the Franconian Courier :—" There are at present about 300,000 Christians in China. The greater part of them are indebted for pastoral care to the Laza iits, but some likewise to the Dominicans and Fran ciscans, and to a small Lumber of Italian priests. The whole number of priests, European and Chinese, does not exceed 300. Of seminaries there are but few, anti those few are little mere than common schools. The Christians are not allowed to practise their religion publicly, but with their private assemblies no inter ference takes place. The churches are but f ew i n number, and those not capacious enough for their seve ral congregations, and the faithful are obliged to meet privately. Singularly enough, a church erecte d at Pekin by the Emperor Hang Hi, wh o was very friendly to the Christiana, has remained intact. A ncti9n bas long prevailed among the Pagans of China, that as long as the cross remains standing on the steeple of this church no serious calamity can befal the empire. In Canton there are Letween 8,000 and 9,000 Christians, ' who in that city enjoy greater liberty than in any other part of the country. In Macao there are upwards of a thousand Catholics.
