The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have beets either alto; ether overlooked, Sr treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial arid well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, w h o traffic an the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the pert of the regular surgeon. In order to obviat e th o pernicious effects sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors have for a considerable time devoted themselves ex clusively to a certain class of diseases ; of the necessity of so doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise from certain secret practices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, wherein affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of consumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than in medical.practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is no member of society by %Ahem the book will not bo found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse quence of some disease, which, for want .of careful investiga tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con gumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonishes) to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, he directed and very touch assisted in investigating and detecting the t oo o cealed pra c ti ces so o f ten i ntroduced into schools, vrherften cone ehr th health and u lti mate l y the lives of his pupils are sure to be.com e promised, unless the evil be arrested in prope r time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the Intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real causes of mill attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor. will here be directed as to the eature of th ose h a b its to which youth is addicted; he will also be enabled to point out the dis. estrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not relinquished.

Borso, allied to the partisans of the Constitution of 1812, and member of the Carbonari Club, passed for au Exaltado in the army. He separated him self from his party at the end of 1838, under circum stances which did hiM great honour.

I do not doubt that you will cheerfully meet thit; furthei: demand upon your services. I regret that it is not in My power to lay before you the important Bills which were suspended last year, in order that the instructions of her Majesty's Government might be obtaint'd on some material points involved in them. I trust, howe.ve'', that before the end of the session I may be able to •odtu them in such a state as may render the discussion of t:tem easy and satisfactory. " I am convinced by almost every dam experience of the want throughout the colony of the institutions which these Bills are intended to provide ; in respect to Syd ney in particular, it must, I think, appear to others, as well as to myself, a matter of suiprke and regret, that a commercial capital, now containing more than :30,000 inhabitants, should be still without any means of self government. " I have received information that her Majesty has been pleased to erect the islands of New Zealand into a separate Government, and that consequently the intimate connection which existed for a time.between New Zea land and New South Wales, has Ceased ; a friendly in tercourse, however, and one of mutual benefit, will con tinue, I truit, still to be kept up between the two coun tries; and there is not, I am sure, an inhabitant of New South Wales who wi'.l not join with me in wishing suc cess to the colonists of New Zealand. " I aul notyet able to lay before the Council any doct tnents respecting the separation of the two colonies, but I hope shortly to be in a condition to do so. vision was made by the Council during its last session, have been as far as possible carried into effect by the executive authority. A Court of superior jurisdiction has been established at Port Philip ; Circuit Courts at Bathurst, Berthas, and Maitland ; and Courts of Re quests in a considerable number of the minor towns of the colony. These are measures not only calculated to be of great benefit to the colonists, but are otherwise of importance, as approximating the institutions of the colony to the condition of those which we look up to with veneration in our parent land. " A census has been taken of our population, and as soon as possible, after all the returns are received, I shall lay the result before the Council. ' l4 • T he colony has, moreover, in many other respects advanced during the year, in a gratifying and encou raging manner. _ ~ ~ " Steam navigation has greatly increased; a store of grain is provided against the recurrence of such a cae lamity as that which visited us in 1839; immigration has been continued in a copious, though still an insuffi cient stream; and the streets of Sydney are the first to testify that gas lights have made their appearance in the Eastern hemisphere. " But notwithstanding these many subjects of contra. tulation, it must be acknowledged, that th e fe w mont h s which have elapsed since the Council last separated have been anxious ones . for the colony, and obvious to all, that the present times require of us' the exercise of p* tience, industry, mutual forbearance, and economy; with these, however, I feel confident that we shall easily surmount our difficulties; whilst the evils of the present day will become profitable lessons for the future. " The commercial embarrassments, which first showed themselves in Sydney about the month of October or November last, did not affect the public income of 1840. The revenue of that year was indeed the largest ever collected in the colony—the gross receipts of the year having exceeded the gross expenditure by the large SUM of 120,0001. notwithstanding that in the expenditure -was included very nearly 150,000/. for immigration. " The ordinary revenue of the Port Philip district was more • than double that of the preceding year, it having increased from 14.0081. in 1839 to 29,7991. in 1840, whilst the sale of Crown lands in that district brought to the general land fund the large amount of 217,1271. thus affording to the older parts of the colony the means,of replacing the labour and capital which the opening of Port Phillip had drained from them. "Aided by the resources of the older settlements, but unassisted with borrowed money, the district of Port Philip has risen rapidly to a state of wealth and impor tance, which cannot but be highly gratifying to the entire • colony. "The pecuniary difficulties under which many inte rests in the colony are still suffering, must naturally be expected to affect the revenue of the present year, and of probably the next succeeding one ; the falling off, however, is as yet only sensibly felt in the branch of it which is derived from the sale of land, and in this even the deficiency may in part be ascribed to othereauses. " These pecuniary difficulties may safely, I believe, be reid to have arisen from excessive speculati on an d an undue extension of credit. They seem to be of the na ture of those which frequently and almost periodically occur in all places where commercial adventure is eager; and a remedy for there is, I think, to be looked for in ote natural course of events, rather than to - be sought in any legislative enactments. "A few of the circumstances which have contributed to bring about these embarrassments in our commercial relations may perhaps, without much risk of error, be pointed out, though it is very necessary to bear in mind that in seeking to discover such agencies we are very likely to mistake effects for causes. " The scarcity of 1838 and 1839 caused a great drain from the colony for the first necessary of life, and pro duced excessive fluctuations in the price of every descrip tion of grain. "The decline in price of our chief staple commodity, wool, lessened the value of our exports in the home market. The Memorial of Pan states that passports, enabling them to return into Spain as they desire, having been re fused to the 46 officers of the Second Regiment of the Royal Guard, who came into France on their ultimate desertion by their men. These officers have been sent to Orthez, to remain there in depot. A letter from Madrid, of the Bth inst., in the Debats, says :—" The Count de Requena, son of the Duke de la Rocca, is the young Colonel who accompanied Queen Christina to Paris. He returned to Madrid with the letters and presents which the Queen of Spain had sent to Espartero and his wife. Brigadier Quiroga-y-Frias is the nephew of General Quiroga, who died a year ago in Galant. He was chief of the staff of the Captain- General of New Castille. Zequeira and Quiroga were re garded in the army as two of its best and bravest officers." TOLOSA, Ocr. 14.—About two hours ago General Picuero, the Military Chief of the Insurgents of Alava, arrived at Bergara from Vittoria, with one battalion escorting three large waggons laden with arras and ammunition for the rebel force under the orders of ITrbistondo. Piquero was Brigadier in the Carlist army, and was one of those included in the convenio of Bergara. An express, dated yesterday, has ju s t arrived from Penacenada to the Captain-General, Alcala, in which it is announced, that Martin Zur bano, who was then at Argasin with Alesan, had taken seven Minones prisoners. The Minones are the pro vincial troops of Alava, paid and commanded by the De putation, and are similar to the Celadores of Guipuzcoa, and Miguelites of Biscay. Of the seven prisoners Zur bano instantly shot six. I cannot bring myself to approve of these acts of prompt and terrible justice. I cannot help bringing to my recollection that the shoot. ing of Santez Ladron was made the pretext for those dreadful atrocities which, for so long a period, marked the commencement and progress of the late civil war ; and I very much fear that the opposite party will follow the example, and in a tenfold degree, set them by Zur bano. For the sake of humanity I should w i s h t h e ' such severities may not be visited on the heads of thoi: who are, at the most, but blind instruments in the hark of others.

From the best information we can obtain, this state of' things.appears tube pretty much the case in all the ma nufacturing districts. The spring trade was a total failure, and the fall trade has been no better, therefore in too many of the towns, both of England and Scotland, existence from public subscriptions, ,or from the noor-rates, seems the only mode left for preserving. the of the inhabitants during the .ensuing months of white,: At a sample of,the condition of our industrious manufact...' ri ng population, and as a proof of the correct ness f th k u, remarks, we eopy from the Morning Chro nicleletter descriptive of the wr e tch e d condit t i h o e n f o o f•et ,l '' ' t 'l n?, :enious am: industrious population of Paisley.

You have already sufficient information on that point to form the ground for a strong plea of .;ympathy, which I know you will effectually make in proper quarters. The numbers of the umnDployed grid their destitution present a scene on which no humane person can look without keen and painful feeling. We have not, however, anything like a fair view of the actual distress when we look at those receiving assistance from our poor-relief fund. Thereis a large portion of our opera tives, and I hesitate not to say the best portion, that have never yet applied for any relief, but who have been suffering to an almost incredible amount. They have been disposing of furniture, body clothes, and bed clothes,. in order to keep themselves and families in life, until at length their houses are so spoiled that they have scarcely one article of comfort left. Their resources are now dried up ; they cannot get employment ; many of them have only a single meal a day, and that meal a few potatoes and salt; they are sinking amidst the hardships of poverty; spirits once honourably independent are now being crushed ; the horrors of staiiiitiOnlor themselves anti - their already famishing little ones are rising' fear fully before them, and the coming winter seems ciaai-ged with evils fir theM which I do not see hew they are able to endure, " yesterday forenoon a decent-looking young married woman, very thinly clad, and without stockings and shoes, called at our door seeking relief. She had her arms a young infant, a few months old, and apparently dying. My attention was attracted to her, in conse .quence, of hearing Mrs. Cairns express surprise that a child in such a diseased state should be. brought out in such a cold and wet morning, and especially es it was almost naked. The poor mother, whose pale and ema ciated features at once announced her privation of com forts, said it was altogether a matter of necesaity. She 'stated that she had another child ; that bet- husband had work at present ; but that for a considerable tini he had not half employment ; that the proceeds of his labour were so small that they were' in a starving state, while, because he has work, he cannot get assistance from the relief fund ; that unknown to him she had tal:en the infant in her arms, and made a hasty call on a few _canii lies, in the hope that she might perhaps get sometiring to procure medicine and cl o thi ng for her child. " I took a note of her residence, and in the afternoon& went with a friend to ascertain the facts of the case.. I did not only find her statement true, but that their poverty is actually greater than she had intimated. Their dwelling consists of ono small, dingy, damp apart ment, on a ground floor, which many would not con sider a sufficient kennel for their dogs. There is a bed stead in the room belonging to the landlord. b u t no b e d on it ; only a little straw laid out on the boards, on which the family lie down at night, without either blanket or coverlet. We saw 'no other furniture in the yoom, ex celst an old chair, a small deal table, and a little box, with some straw in it, as a substitute fora cradle. The husband, who was at home when we called, assured us that their poverty is not the result of dissipation, but of a succession of periods of commercial distress, each leay. in the operative poorer, and worse prepared for the next :season of suffering. Bis wages have not averaged above Ss. Gd. a week for the last twelvemonths. •We in quired as to their ordinary food, and were told that they generally subsisted on potatoes, but that frequently they could not procure even that diet. " After leaving this house, we went to visit another family reported to be in great distress. We found a woman and three children occupying a small garret room. There was not a particle of furniture, except one little stool, and the frame of an old folding-up bed. which was laid uselessly in a corner of the room. Oa a few fags, as a substitute for a bed, an infarrx, ten or eleven weeks old, was sleeping, and that, we ware told, was the only dormitory for the household. The haisband had absconded from his family about ten months ago ; and as the mother, who was wont to sew for a. ware houie in town, cannot get employment of any descliption, she and her little ones are in a state of great destitution. " These are only samples of numerous cases that. might be noticed. Our town is in a most deplorable state. Society is breaking up amongst us ; and unless some im provement speedily take place, dreadful results may be anticipated. I trust the friends among whom you go, seeking . assistance for our suffering towasnu m, will readily and liberally respond to your request ; and at once enjoy the luxury of doing good, and diffuse comfort through many a suilipring family. lam aware that you have a strong case in the statistics with which yOu have been furnished. I know also that you have numerous and painful details of suffering to give. But it occurred to me that I might inform you of what had come under my own observation yesterday ; and if it contribute in any way to further the benevolent labours in which you are eng,aged, the time spent in writing out the preceding sentences shall not have been occupied in vain.
