Again imagination leads her aid, In kind sliVestions to the bard of trade ; And under her instructions I describe A recent meeting of the cannon tribe. You'll understand that at a certain hour, I trode the purlieus of our ancient Tower; When strange to tell, the subjects of my ditty, Were holding a discussion in committee. Vast numbers of the Guns were here assembled, And es they spoke the far-famed fortress trembled. So down I sat, and down I took the speeches, And underneath you'll understand what each is. " I rise," said Fulminator, " with a notion Of ca lling notice to a special motion ; Nor will your mighty Gunships take amiss My well-meant proposition—which is this t That Messrs. MOSES' Mart of wide repute Be -1 - duly honoured with a grand salute.' 2 "-t sure," said he, " en looking at their CLOTHES, 41 1111 acquiesce in what I now propose. 14 7, , brothe r inmates of this noted garrison, you know are far beyond comparisou. , rb p "tiu behold the articles admit beauty of their style, and make , and fit." Just " you've rightly reckoned, A nd . said Thunderbolt, T w illingly your motion will I second. 'he Mart at which Fro p o inting with my muzzle, To c ompetition is a downright puzzle. THE HATS OF MOSES In the way they suit, A ! le equally des ert ing a salute. T hese valued tiles are such as no one shuns, ..° get Your touch-holes ready, brotker Guns." „., cI ; bg," said Fury," to suppoi t the motion, r have often entertained the notion. ..8d when I see the worth of MOSES' BOOTS, I think they merit fifty grand salutes. b e Hoots and Shoes of MOSES, firmly wrought, -,arse, like the Tower Guns, a good report." That's perfectly correct," said Cannon Bellow, "The Mart of MOSES never had its fellow And this, you know, applies to MOSES' FUR, So. fire away, and in;lteaglorious stir." " Bravo," said Waterloo, " prepare your nosey, And don't forget THE HOSIERY OF MOSES. You know the Hosiery is good and cheap, give it a sally, boys, let no one sleep." • -Fhe motion being put, at once was carried. AThe nd I to see the issue, gladly tarried. :ill. n h g ds so a :l 3 : o o: E na s e:ced, when all around, 4,4lfLechoed with the moving sound; e the Guns in grand salutes were firing, warehouse were attiring; And often was the obse ration Ade— That MOSES' are the " Two Great Guns" of trade.

CITY OF LONDON SEWERS. THE CITY GAS BILL. Yesterday the Commissioners of Sewers assembled at Guildhall for the purpose of discussing the propriety of con tinuing the proceedings to obtain a measure in Parliament to enable the citizens of London to procure gas at a moderate price. Mr. Deputy Peacock in the chair. The Commis sioners, after a discussion of considerable length, came to the following resolution, by a majority of 19 to 7 : • " That no further proceedings be taken in prosecuting this Bill, and that it be referred to the Board of Health to pre pare a report, to be presented to the Court of Common Coun cil, explaining the grounds upon which we have come to sach resolution ; and that the general purpose committee be instructed to inquire and report as to the best means of effect- ing a reduction in the price of gas to the citizens of London." Those who were for proceeding with the Bill were ex tremely (indignant at the resolution to which the Commis sioners had come, after the infinite pains taken,by the Corpo ration to accomplish a reduction in the exorbitant price of so necessary an article.

JAMES' CELEBRATED ASTILIAN TINC TURE FOR THE TIC DOLOREUX, win prove an invaluable medicine to those suffering from this most excruciating and hitherto-considered incurable complaint. A. know ledge of its surprising efficacy has induced the proprietors to bring it more extensively before the Public than has hitherto been done, and thus confer a blessing upon thousands now labouring under that distressing malady; the first application not only easing the patient of all pain, but effecting in almost every case, a lasting cure. As a remedy for Toothache, the proprietors can confidently recom mend it as one that cannot be surpassed. This medicine is also a certain specific for Spasms, however violent, especially in the stomach or bowels, and from its perfect freedom from anything of a deleterious character, may be administered under any circumstances with entire safety.

Diffidence, er a sense of right determine the former, and miscriculated hopes'em b:tter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, .mod broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement.

BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. Doctor of Medicine. Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. he order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical dioqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less Injury to the constitutional and. vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human fr ame , than any ether to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions In health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should bo possessed. it unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap hanie those and complaints t h dre a d are so plying to a qualified physician for entertained requently, but erroneously beyond the reach of art, alike restrict hitn and prevent his seeking relief. that 8 'or assistance where alone it can be procared. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of asease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by hi., posse sion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas ertity, and the great extent of his practice far many years is a 4narantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost , olely to the tre a t ment of these diseases.

The character was performed throughout with great care and judgment, and with much spirit and animation. Mr. Wentworth possesses those natural advantages which are of so much importance to gentlemen of his profession —a good figure, a handsome countenance, and an excellent voice. His articulation is easy and distinct, and his deportment and bearing elegant and dignified, without the slightest appearance of affectation. He is not, however, free from faults ; but they are such as practice, and, perhaps, a clearer perception of the character he uidertakes would soon rectify and amend. He was ably% supported by Mrs. Stirling in Juliana, and by Mr. Compton in Jaques, whose dry humour created a good deal of amuse ment. At the close of the performance Mr. Wentworth and Mrs. Stirling were called before the curtain, and were received with much applause.

Rarely has an excellent moral purpo se b een so strikingly developed through the medium of a tale, aboundirg in dramatic inci dent, and filled with a succession of characters so varied in their attributes, and so truthfully and energetically painted, that they form a gallery of portraits worthy to rank with the creations of the greatest masters of modern fiction. Among the most prominent of these characters are the noble minded, but unfortunate hero, Gideon ; his beautiful and erring mother, Miriam ; and th e clever and accomplished, though profligate and degraded, statesman, the Earl of Avonmore, his father; the charming (Isristian-souled Ca lantha Mordaunt, Gideon's benevolent ald ardent protector; the proud and sensitive Mr. Chandos ; lis superficial, vain, and imperious wife; and their sweet and naïve daughter Kitty.

Various erroneous reports having been put in circu lation with respect to the reduction of the standing army of the United Kingdom, we are enabled to furnish our readers with the following official document, just issued from the Horse Guards : '• Horse Guards, Jan. 29, 1849. " Her Majesty's Government having determined to effect a reduction in that portion of the Infantry at present employed in the home service, and the establishment of regiments at home and abroad having been fixed, by the Queen, at the numbers specified in the margin (subjoined), the Com mander-in-Chief has been pleased to approve of the follow ing arrangements for carrying out that measure, and by which it appears to his Grace the required reduction may be effected, with a due regard to the claims and interests of in dividuals, and with the least possible inconvenience to the public service. " Officers commandinc , regiments and depots will imme diately transmit to this department, or to the Deputy-Ad jutant-General at Dublin, descriptive returns (in the form prescribed at page 198 of her Majesty's regulations) of the following classes of non-commissioned officers and men, whom it is proposed to discharge -_a separate return being forwarded for each class, viz.:— ._. "First—Such non-commissioned officers and men as may be considered by medical officers as of weakly constitution, and not likely to become robust and efficient soldiers. " Secondly— Men of short service (provided they have not served with the regiment abroad) who, having been enlisted as lads, have not grown to the present standard size pre scribed for the Infantry. " Thirdly—Confirmed drupliards and men of bad character, provided they are not entitled to pension or gratuity under any existing warrant. " Lastly—And only if necessary after having disposed of the three classes above specified, a return of such non commissioned officers and men, without distinction as to age or length of service, as may be disinclined to continue in the army, and desirous of being relieved from their engagement. " Commanding officers will be careful not to include in any of the above categories, or bring forward for discharge youths, the sons of soldiers, born in the army, or brought up at the Royal Military Asylum, or Hibernian School, and enlisted by special authority, without first ascertaining that their friends are willing to receive, and have the means of providing for them. " Officers commanding depots will take care to reserve supernumeraries sufficient, not only to fill up all vacancies in the service companies, but to replace such non-commissioned officers and men as are ascertained to be about to be inva lided, or to become otherwise non-effective. " Such supernumerary non-commissioned officers and men as may remain over, after this arrangement shall have been fully carried into effect, will, for the present, be borne on the strength of their respective regiments, with a view to their being ultimately absorbed in the establishment; but officers in command of the service companies must be careful not to make any fresh promotions or appointments of non commis sioned officers until the whole of the supernumeraries at the depots shall have been disposed of. " Regiments will, of course, discontinue all further recruit ing until they shall have respectively fallen below the esta blishments now prescribed. " Non-commissicned officers and men, discharged under these regulations, will be entitled to carry with them the whole of their clothing now in wear. " By command of Field Marshal the Duke of " Wellington, Commander-in-Chief. " JOEIN MACDONALD, A.G."

The Sprightly steam-vessel, Lientenant-Commander H. • Barnard, was put out of commission last evening. The Racer, 16, Li eutenant -Commander Bacon, is hourly expected here from Plymouth. She is ordered on her arrival to be prepared for sea immediately. ''' In the recent t r i p to Plymouth of the five steamers= Growler, Driver, Salamander, Rattler, and Jackal, the latter proved the fastest vessel, which is confirmed by the statements of various persons who were on board the re spective steamers. ~It is well known to those who were in the vessels that when the signal was made at daylight on, Sunday for the squadron to proceed without reference to seniority, the Jackal, although her steam was down at the time and then being twelve miles off Plyncioutb, was the first into Hamoaze; the Growler followed. The Jackal is one of the condemned half-dozen iron vessels. • Wind, S.E. by E., light breezes and thick hazy weather. .. with drizzling rain. , PROMOTIONS.

The Arrogant, 46, steam-frigate, at Portsmouth, has been commenced upon by .the extra riggers, to get her lower rig ging over. The shrouds, which are of wire rope, have a rather singular appearance from being apparently so slight, the laniards, which are of hemp, being nearly as thick as the shrouds. The Rapid, 8-gun brig, has also been com menced upon, and is ordered to be got ready for re-commis sion at Portsmouth immediately, for service on the coast she has just returned from, and will take out the mail of the Ist of March to the West African station. Her compliment will be 80. Her late commander (Dixon) received a very hand some testimonial from the officers of his vessel after paying her off, consisting of a splendid double-handed vase or cup, with an appropriate inscription. The Heroine, 8-gun brig, is ordered to be refitted at De vonport, and commissioned to convey the mail of the Ist of April to the coast of Africa. The Comet and Bloodhound steam-vessels, at Portsmouth, are being rigged and brought forward for re-commission, to protect the fisheries. The Dragon steam-frigate, Captain Hall, is ordered from Cork to Portsmouth with the battalion of Marines under the command of Colonel Willes. EXAMINATION OP MATES FOR THE RANK OF LIEUTE NANT.—Mr. Shute Barrington Piers and Mr. Wm. Henry Pym passed the necessary examinations qualifying for the commission of Lieutenant, at Portsmouth, yesterday. PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.—The Centaur steam-frigate, Captain Claude H. M. Buckle, bent sails this morning, and has had her compasses tried for local attraction to-day. She is to sail for Plymouth to-morrow. The Rolla, 6, exercise brig for the naval apprentices, has commenced refitting for the season, and has been hauled into Blockhouse Hole for that purpose to-day. The Fairy, steam-tender to tke royal yacht, is refitting in the steam basin. The Racer, 16, arrived this afternoon from Plymouth to be refitted for sea service. WOOLWICH, FEB. 2.—The Hecla steam-vessel being ready for service, left Woolwich this forenoon for Sheerness, where she is to be stationed for the present as an advanced war steamer. The Monkey steam-vessel, Master-Commander Bryant, proceeded to Sheerness at the same time as the Hecla, to bring back the riggers who navigated her. The Black Prince, broughs from Sheerness to Woolwich, to be fitted as a convict ship, is ordered to be taken back to Sheerness, as it is not intended to convert her into a convict ship at present. Commodore Henry Eden left Woolwich yesterday for Ireland, on leave of absence for a few weeks. Captain Bullock, employed on the surveying service in this quarter, will perform the duties, and act as superintendent during the Gallant Commodore's absence. CHATHAM, FEB. 2.—The President, 50 guns, Captain William P. Stanley, was towed into this harbour on the 29th ult., by the African and Fearless steam-vessels, to be paid off, without any of the bulkheads or other internal fittings being disturbed ; she is expected to be paid off on Tuesday next. Two able seamen, King and Edwards, rece i ved se rious injuries on board whilst raising an anchor at the Little Nore, by the patent capstan breaking, and t h e c h a i n which held the anchor flew with such violence that 18 men were thrown down on the deck. The chain was, by tl'..e force of the tide, drawn from the hawser, and it was fo'.ind necessary to slip the second anchor. The Espiegle, 12 guns, Commander F. A. Campbell, will be paid off at Sheerness on Saturday, the 3d iwst. The Chatham yacht proceeds with the pay clerks from the pay office to-morrow for that purpose. The Elfin steam-boat is to be launched on the Bth instant. She will be then sent round to the Thames to have her engines (which are constructing by Mr. Rennie) put in place. She is built to run with expresses from Gosport to the Isle of Wight. guard-ship, on a principle proposed by Lord John Hay, is in prdgress, and she is to be sheathed with Munta's metal. The contemplated reductions will include one foreman of this yard, two inspectors of shipwrights, one of joiners, eight leading men of shipwrights, and the number of men to be superannuated and discharged will exceed 200. The Admi ralty have directed that eleven apprentices to shipwrights only be entered this year, which number is to be the com plement each year, instead of 16 annually, which has been the case. The Dido, 18 guns, Captain J. B. Maxwell, was paid off this day at Sheerness; and the Bittern, 16 guns, Commander Thomas Hope, was paid off at Sheerness on Tuesday last. PLYXOUTII, FEB.

Naples, Jan. 19. At eight o'clock A.M. yesterday (the 18th) the Admiral made the signal, " Exercise at nine o'clock." At about frr a minutes after the appointed time the signal was ma d e , " SWlft all topsail yards," a very pretty manoauvre, which was e jone in the following time by the respective ships:— Ships. Fore. I Main. I Mizen. Min. Sec. Min. See. Min. Sec. 1 Hibernia, 104, Admiral Parker ...... • . 20 45 Bowe, 120, Captain Sir J.

After the Hibernia and the Queen had finished, the for mer made the signal " Hibernia and Queen shift to pgallant masts ;" but, as it was very misty weather, and quite calm, it was taken for a general signal, and the mistake was not discovered until the flag-ship signalled " Annul. Howe and Bellerophon ;" but it was then almost too late, for some of the old masts were on deck. The two former did it as follows : Fore. Main. Minn. Ship. Min. Sec. Min. See. Min. Sec. Hibernia (flag) ... 7 0 ... 830 ... 730 Queen ... ... ... 12 30 ... 12 0 ... 830 The Howe then close-reefed her topsails and reefed her courses. The Admiral made the signal " Well reefed ;" after that she made sail, shaking out one reef at a time, and then furled sails. Two accidents attended the exercise; one terminated fatally. On board the Howe, the liAard of the foretop gallant mast, being made with a slippery hitch, fell over the side, carrying away the port forecastle netting and itself at the topgallant sheave; but, strange to say, no one was hurt. On board the Queen, when sending her foratopgallantm_Yard across, the yard rope was let go, and the lower lift cog cff at the same time, the yard came down from the cap, Just clearing the two f orecas tl e guns fore an d aft, and strikin g two men, one of whom di e d f rom t h e injuries ha sustained , and the other had an arm and leg broken.

Owing to calms and a long detention from contrary winds in Norton Sound, it was not till the Ist of Septem ber that the Herald arrived at the appointed rendezvous in Kotzebue Sound. There she remained till t'ae end of the month, waiting for the Plover, which vessel not ar riving, Captain Kellett again weighed and re -passed the Straits on the 2d of October, arriving at l'lazatlan on the 24th of November. By letters received from Callao it appears that after a tedious passage the Plover, being an excelleiat sea boat, but a very dull sailer, had only reached that place on the 6th of July. It was therefore not possible for her to arrive in Behring's Straits before the departure of the Herald, and the probability is that she will have to pass the winter at Petropaulski, or Sitka, and proceed this spring, on the opening of the ice, to explore the north coast of America with her boats. _ In the meantim e th e H e rald, having refitted, w ill i m. mediately sail f or B e h r i ng 's Straits, with provi s i ons and stores for th e Pl over , w hi c h ship will, if necessary, 'pass the next wint er i n K o tzebue Sound, or some other con venient spot, which may be selected for her. - _
