IN the m o r n i ng of Life, when the blandish ments of passion " take the reason prisoner," it is an evil more to be lamented than wondered at, if, in the vortex of deceptive pleasure, the unhappy traitor against the laws of nature pays in lonely disappointment a fearfnl exaction for his rebellion in the compromise of his mental as well as botiily powers. To all persons so circumstanced as to require the professional aid of men of experience, whose time has been for twenty years studiously and suc cessfully devoted to the complaints arising from nervous debility, whether natural or acquired, GOSS and CO. proffer the most consolatory assurances. The youth who has enervated his frame by the strangely fascinating sin, which the poor victim of folly will too readily comprehend without further description, may find relief from his misery, and be kindly taught to regain his lost place in the scale of creation. The sufferer who, from another extreme of in dulgence, has with unbashful forehead, wooed debility, may learn to renovate nature, and repair his abused (.m. atitution. The man of pleasure exposed to and suffering from Lues Venerea, however aggravated by malpractice of the quack, or the concealment from diffidence, may find a certain restoration ; and finally in cases where the delay of a camnuhial pledge has almost extended disappointment to dospair, they offer to the married female those hopes which she can reasonably appreciate. Remedies can he forwarded to any part of the world; Patients writing for the same, will please to enclose a Bank Note. Attendance at home for consultation as usual. GOSS and CO., M.R.C.

COLBURN has the honour to an nounce that he will publish, on the let of JANUARY, 1529, the First Number of the UNITED SERVICE' JOURNAL: To be continued Monthly. While nearly eveiy department or mod;fication of Art and Science, of Ethics and Politics, possesses its periodical representative of more or less frequent recurrence, it ap pears a singular deficiency that the Military and Naval Ser vices, so important in their extent, duties, and attainments, should command no distinct work of professional intel ligence and communication of suitable frequency and con venient form. The publication of the periodical Work here announced, has been projected, :lot only as a means of communication on professional topics between gentlemen engaged i❑ the re spective services, but as a hook wherein the grander Mili tary and Naval events of the age, individual Narratives by Officers now living, and Biographical Memoirs of those who are deceased, may be permanently embodied. To Pro fessional Gentlemen the record of these events, and these personal Histories, cannot but be of the greatest value; while to the Public at large they will afford subjects of the most exciting interest. But deeply interesting, and even instructive, as these narratives must be, they will form but a portion of the in tended work. We have already spoken of its being a me dium for the Ca irrtspond e n ce of Offieers ; to which we may add, that it will form a permanent Chronicle of the pro ceedings of Courts Alartial, and of the Legislature, as re gards Naval and Military affairs; that it will contain in vestigations, discussions, and new plans relative to the more scientific parts of the professions, such as Fortification, Engineering, Naviation, and Tactics in general ; and that one of the main departments of the Journal will consist of a Review of Publications connected with the Army and Navy. It is customary, with the Advent of a new Periodical, to advertise the principles on which it w ilt b e con ducted ; and we may here state briefly, that the objects which we shall keep steadily anal anxiously in view, will be the in culcation and support of even-handed disciplin e , the bond and charter of all Armed Bodies ;—the Interchange and Extension of Military and Naval Informati on ; —the pro motion of high-minded Loyalty and Love of Country ; the encouragement of lofty feeling and honourable ambi tion, and the excitement of professional and literary cmnula tier. The 'Work will be conducted by an Officer of his Majes ty's Service, who has already insured the effective co-oper ation of Gentleme❑ of high rank, not only in the United Services, but in Society and literary fame. Gentlemen desirous of addressing the Editor are re quested to forward their Communications, to the care of the Publisher, Mr. WWII), 8, New Burlington-street. SUPERIOR HATS.

Charles Pitman was indicted for stealing a pair of trousers, and other articles of wearing apparel, the property of John Yates Cooper, Esq. of Hackney. The Jury ret:•irncd a valet of Not Guilty. The same prisoner was a second time indicted for stealing a silver watch.---Not Guilty. William Harper was indicted for stealing several yards of linen from the shop-door of a tradesman in 'Newington. The charge against the prisoner was fully established against him, and he was found Guilty; but it appealing, in the course of the te.:ti mony given by the witnesses, that the article in question was exhibited for sale outside the prosecu tor's door, the Chairman, on that consideration, passed a milder sentence on the prisoner than he would otherwise have been disposed to extend to him, being an old offender. He was therefore sen tenced to six months' imprisonment. We are requested by Mr. James Scott, soli citor, of 15, Lincoln's-Inn-fields, to stare that he is Rot the party who was the subject of the recent proceedings in the Court of King's Bench on Thursday last, reported in this Journal. A Militia Captain, in BerkAire County (U.

WHITCHURCII, Nov. 26.—Nothing can ex.- ceed the consternation oreated here this thu Bank of Messrs. Cawser, Nayler, and Hassan, being closed. It is market-day, and the failure of Messrs. Frys and Chap man, their London agents, caused a general demand to be made upon them for the balances in their hands. I un derstand that they had 45,0001. at Messrs. Frys, and that they confidently expect to be able to meet every call upon them, but thought it more honourable to stop at once, and let all the creditors have an equal chance than to pay all the demands upon them this day, and be obliged to suspend their payments, most probably, on Monday or Tuesday, if tho run should continue. No doubt is entertained of the ultimate solvency of the firm. Mr. Cawser possesses con siderable property in the county, as indeed, do both the other partners. Mr. Hassan has long been in an infirm state of health, and it is feared this shock will hasten his dissolution. The shock to the numerous farmers, &c. at tending the Whitchurch market this day, is beyond de scription. I shall send you any further authentic particu lars in a day or two.—Morning Paper. SIX FEET Cum.—Yesterday, the Six Feet Club opened their new Hall in East nistle-street, when the competition for the Scottish broad-sword medal, took place in presence of Sir Walter Scott, Bart. umpire of the Club, Professor Wilson, Mr. Shene of Rubishov, and a number of the members and other gentlemen. After a keen and dexterous contest, which ultimately lay betwixt Mr. M'Farlane and Mr. M'Millan, the former got the medal by seven hits to six, in the course of a protracted, skilful, and interesting conflict in which both gentlemen displayed such equality of proficiency, that the Judges were difficulted to decide betwixt them, and a concluding round settled the matter by only one hit of superiority. We are happy to see this manly and national exercise still cultivated by gentlemen, and hope this thriving young club will not abate in their attention to it. Professor Wilson, one of the Judges, presented Mr. M‘Farlane with the medal, and expressed himself in terms of great kindness to Mr. MTarlane, and the other gentlemen of the club. We need not add, that Sir Walter's appearance was hailed with every mark of respect, and hailed as an auspicious omen to the institution.—Edinburgh Observer. ALLEGED MURDER.—John Pike, and his wife Mary, labourers, in the vicinity of Oswestry, were last week committed to Shrewsbury gaol, charged with the wilful murder of their niece, Elizabeth Pike. The poor girl, it appears, had been bereaved of her Either some short time ago, and having gone to reside with the pri soners, the aunt was observed one morning correcting the child rather severely, and on being taken to task, she said " she did not care if she were hanged for it." Shortly after a lady and gentleman, travelling in a gig on the road, observed the uncle driving the child before him with con siderable severity, and striking and kicking it whenever it slackened its pace. Three days afterwards the child died ; and a Coroner's Jury being summoned to investigate, they returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder" against both toe prisoners.

Very inaccurate, or at least imperfect ideas, are still entertained respecting Egypt, and the ex traordinary man who presides over her destinies. Placed between two great and powerful parts of the globe, anti fronting Europe, less fertile, indeed, but infinitely superior in population and industry, Egypt possesses in her position, an advantage which attracts to her shores the com merce of the whole world, particularly as she owns the only safe port of any capacity in that part of the Levant. The caravans, which pene trate to the interior of the country, and return, both by land and water, loaded with the produce of Africa, destined to be embarked upon the Red Sea for Arabia, and the most distant Eng lish possessions, render this country the entrepot of the commerce of the world. The produce of her soil and industry, which Egypt sends to the markets of Alexandria, would be sufficient in itself to render that city one of the most important and extensive places of com merce, and the present Viceroy, Mehemet-Ali, aware of that fact, has made it his object to in crease the trade of Alexandria ever since he suc ceeded in ridding himself of the Mamelouk Chiefs, by encouraging agriculture, industry, and commerce, and, above all, by improving the moral and intellectual condition of the country he governs, which he has effected in a sensible degree. It is well known that an immense difference exists between the present and the former state of Egypt, particularly before the entrance of the French towards the end of the preceding century. Many articles before unknown to her commerce, are now cultivated there, and civilization con stantly progressing with its necessary conse quences,—luxury introduces the use of maehinys, haveto o, thatgoiie to a and various products of European industry, the demand for which daily increases, giving activity to the circulation, and causing also an i ncrease of numberexports. European It families, sll o u d added, who Egypt to reside there, and enj o y repose un d er o f the shade of an administration not less mild than protecting, contribute very much to this in crease of industry and commerce by their con sumption of produce, and still more by the im mense foreign traffic which they carry on. All the vital resources of the country, neu tralized a short time back by a brutal and grasp ing despotism, and by intestine dissensions, now gain consistence and feel a gradual improvement under the care of a Government, a ctively em ployed in giving them relief. Yet, notwithstanding all these innovations, so advantageous to Egypt, it must not be supposed that a full and unrestricted freedom of trade ob tains there. The Pacha monepolizes foreign commerce as well as almost every other branch of industry. His own ships or vessels are bought or hired of other nations, receive their cargo from his agents, transport the merehandize, pro visions, and produce of the soil not only to Turkey, to the ports of Italy, France, and Aus tria, but even to England, Holland, and the very extremities of the north. This extraordinary man, Nxhose merit is not, perhaps, sufficiently well known, seems to possess qualities which render him worthy to enjoy all kinds of mono polies. His genius, his unbending firm ness , have rooted out all that was hurtful, all that was barbarous even in the public administration. Foreigners arc permitted, as well • as the natives, to traverse without restraint the whole extent of the vast and interesting countries under his go vernment. He has thus confirmed the funda mental principle of commerce, while he encou rages at the same time the propagation of every useful knowledge. But it is asked, will this amelioration in the ha to On the oth er h an d , we must not om i t t o men tPi°anchaonheas of ia h m o o p s p t ose, e r w e h n i ii h e a s s s t , c h il e —choppo the most obstinate resistanc e to his splendid and beneficent projects,—which bends not but with pain; and is ever prepared to revolt against his mighty perseverance. This enemy is prejudice, partly consecrated by religion, but whose influ ence is chiefly strengthened by time. That. in fluence will, however, be destroyed as soon as experience shall convince the people that the Paella's measures promote their interest and commercial prosperity. With the Egyptians, as with all other people, interest is the prime mover. Mehemet All, who allows no means to escape him of increasing his revenue, applied himself to re-open an old and. rich mine of Egyptian enm. merce,—namely, the trade with the Indies. ,Mr. Brigg, the English Consul at Alexandria, had made a brilliant fortune in those climates, and preserved there the most extensive relations. The Viceroy was . desirous of participating in this gentleman's speculatiOns, and devoted very considerable sums to the execution of their en terprises. A series of unfortunate circumstances however occurred, which confounded their well combined plans ; and among ethers, the war with the Wacchabites occasioned great losses. to the Viceroy. He lost, in the traffic with India, incalculable sums. But if fortune deserted him on that occasion, she always smiled on every en terprise he undertook in Egypt. The manufac tures which he founded have attained the highest degree of prosperity. The annals of Egypt represent to us a country torn, during'the greater part of modern times, by civil dissentions,—the theatre of frightful deeds and terrific tragedies. From the middle of the IBth century Egypt groaned under the ferocious dominion of the Mainelukes, her masters at that time, who reduced her to the last point of misetv. Commerce, and every thing connected. therewith agriculture, and even the soil itself, sank tf , such a state of degradation, that Egypt,• once so opulent as to supply with food, not only the ad jacent countries, but to be one of the granaries of Rome, the mistress of the world,—Egypt could with difficulty support her population, re duced to 2,500,000, and was not able to pay the taxes with which her oppressors loaded her. This it was which rendered her always subject to foreign influence. Mehemet Ali could bear this no longer ; and, incited by ambition, he dis covered, by his genius alone, the means of Ope El.• ing again the source of the happiness and ancierg wealth of Egypt, and of triumphing over the obstacles which opposed his generous purpose. His treasury soon became filled, and he found himself in a condition to carry into execution his projects of conquest in the interior of Africa, his march against the Wacchabites, and his pi arimaabes to the tomb of the Prophet. His economy likewise put it in his power to or ganize that land and naval force which, under the command of his son Ibrahim, has proved t:o formidable to the Greeks. • . Thus Mehemet has reached a superiority, which not only assures to him the most marked preponderance over the surrounding States, but makes his dependance on the Porte, except so far as regards matters of religion, merely nominal. It cannot therefore be uninteresting to examine the present state of Egypt under the Govern ment of Mehemet, and to observe the method which he has adopted to raise her to the degree of amelioration in which she now stands. The capacity of the soil, the fundamental basis of the prosperity of Egypt, was the first object of serious attention to the Government. the land, laid waste by continual wars, and neglected by the unfortunate cultivators, whose labours were incessantly interrupted, produced nothing beyond what was strictly necessary for consump urrepgoisseteorsf tion. The preceding Administration knew not in fact, its extent, and were content to multiply a la ll nc t i r s a , ck o s ie of Ini land. ture o c i a , p t a h b e l e s 0 il of the imposts, without caring about their just pro portion. The first care of Mehemet was to induce p geometers rociucing to ,fo cr i : e fro l in li E u s u ro a :e ri f e o u r lt t l i i i r e al p o m f. were a t k h i e i ; g o a r p n: 1:e . r o Cl:i i s i a l which t o c : l and its boundaries. The most considerable Sheiks, and skilful judges, being first sw orn , were ap p o inted to pro nounce upon th ese po i nts , an d to suggest in what manner the greatest good could be pro duced u n d er t h e circumstances of the country. This purpose was a ccomplished in a very short space of time. The Viceroy then directed the cultivation of corn most fitted to the nature of the soil. To l e i l i e N r t , g , a :y ,r second, as far as depended on himself', these the land, to sow in each part of their farms the measures, he caused a certain number of new canals to be dug, and the old ones destined to fertilize Lower Egypt to the mouths of the Nile, to be cleansed and repaired. In a short time es i o t ,l, b ao e si ell,raionluilesnegi:lou fromsi s s i i i ll ( e i the land produced a great deal more than was necessary for the supply of the inhabitants, and was soon found to export grain. i si i i'l l 'or l mi :• l l ' i tl i si c i li cmo it ton7 l n a ee d irict This was not enough for the P ' acoa,---he was desirous of effeetin , still further good ; and with this view he incited sometribes • • of Beduins from the Deserts of Arabia, to whom he offered lands upon the frontiers, on d' • eon awns profitable to he state. These invitations were for the most part accepted, and a double 1 • t' re results to at ‘an at, : thoc andcl lethargy tl a il the country from this measure ; for while tracks of lands which hitherto lay fallow became cultivated and yielded a revenue, the nomadc hordes, which disturbed the peaceable I i bi .ia_ _tants, and often pillaged them in despite of the menaces of the Govermnent, are now transformed into husband. men, cultivating in tranquillity the territory which they before devastated, and rendered henceforth its . natural defenders against similar hostile ' aggressions. Formerly these hordes of robbers often ex tended their irruptions to the very walls of Alex andria and Cairo, but they were in particular dreaded by villages along the coast. Neutralized to the country, these Bedouins' form an excel lent stock of warriors, of which advantage has already been taken. The soil of Egypt frequently varies, but with the exception of some marshy districts and un cultivated lands bordering on the Desert, it i:-, every where fertile, and principally the Delta in Lower Egypt, and the countries of Fritun and Faytnn in Upper and Middle Egypt.
