The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, and even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most. distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our carefel perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England. Sfessrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood," is one of the few boOks now coming before the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The morel and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able.—Mob ab Ma al t Of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really perusal astonished us by developing aseries of maladies, the never -failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. We from the press, some, b t o h o e k ssv dailyork.— c A om ge in . g str T on h g e ly m r u e l e t o it in u, in le c o n t nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us •ex tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however' been induced by the chara cter given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita • tinn in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those of common diseases which proves so fata l to y outh, and which are set down by the every-day observeras the result causes, such as. exposure to cold , su dden vici s si t udes of tempe rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre mely satisfactory. We say satisfactory, inasmuch as Messrs. Curtis have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmonary Cons,umption, Epilepsy, &c., hitherto the opprobria of medi cine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favou rable a termination as any other class of ffections.

CHELTENHAM ' Nov. 30.—A Board of Directors was sent down hero last week to investigate certain charges made against Mr. George Wall, the postmaster, which ter minated in his being taken into custody. on Saturday last. 'Yesterday he wararought before the Magistrates at the police-office. Mr. C. Rideout, the Post-office surveyor- for the dis trict; appeared as the 'prosecutor, accompanied by Mr. Peacock. the solicitor to the General Post-oftice. Messrs.' R. and J. B. Winterbotham defended the prisoner. Mr. Peacock said, that the charge s agains t M r. W a ll were for embezzling several sums of money belonging to the Government revenue, and fir making false and frau dulent returns of the number of letters posted at Chel tenham for town delivery on the lit, 2d, and sth of No- Vember. The General Post-office had no other means of knowing the amount received for those letters but from the returns made by the - postmaster. The case came under the 2d of William IV., cap. 4, sec. 1, which enacted that persons so acting should be deemed guilty of felony. There were ether charges against Mr: Wall running through September, October, &c., but he should wily proceed on tiitise three at ;present. On the Ist there was 9 s. Gd. de.ficient,,; on the 2d, Os. 6d. ; and on the sth, ss. deficient. He Was certain that if Mr. Wall could clear himself, and account for these . mistakes, it would give him great pleasure, but if net, then it was his duty to take it to another Court. _ _ -. Joseph Fowler, the chief clerk in the Post-office, was called, from whose evidence it appeared that the number of town letters was daily noted. on a postage-slip, from which Mr. Wall copied them at night, Fowler taking the number in a private book he was instructed to keep for that purpose. These returns were sent up soon after the sth of every month; on the days named, however, another return had been made in Mr. Wall's hand writing accounting for a less number of letters than were actually copied from the postage slip of the day, thereby defrauding the revenues of the sums named. The Post master had to charge himself for all the letters except those sent to the three penny post-offices for the vil lages of Prcstbury, Charlton, and Winchomb, which were to be deducted. Mr. Fowler also posted 96 paid circulars for town delivery on the 2d, which he made Mr. Brooker, another clerk, account for, and some un paid ones on the sth, according to instructions he re ceived front Mr. hideout. • Messrs. Welch, Leech, Orpier, and Dawes, clerks in the office, deposed to the number of letters posted on the three days named, which tallied with the number the postmaster should have accounted for. • The COURT adjourned at six o'clock last night to eleven this morning, when the evidence of Mr. C. hideout was taken, and as it contains the nature of the charges we give it at length. Mr. hideout was examined at length respecting the number of paid letters unaccounted for, and stated his belief that the money unaccounted for must be in pos • session of the prisoner, and that he did not believe the returns made to be correct. The CHAIRMAN announced that the prisoner must be put on his trial, but they would admit him to bail, him self in 5001, and two sureties in 2501. each. Mr. Winterbotham, on behalf of the prisoner, applied that he might be continued in the custody of the police until to-morrow, when he should be prepared with the necessary sureties; also, that the private memorandums taken from the prisoner, might be restored to him; both which applications were granted. The COURT then adjourned. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) MANCHESTER.—There was an exceedingly gloomy and languid market yesterday; and prices, both of goods and yarn, were exceedingly irregular, whilst the amount of business done was very small. Owing to the severe and long 7 continued depression, the inclination to work short time becomes more general; and many individuals, in different parts of the district, have diminished their hours of labour, though without any general agreement upon the subject. Some efforts have been making within the last few days, with the view of bringing about such agreement; but we do not very well know what progress has been made in it. A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Gisborne and Wilson, who stopped payment last week, was held yesterday, when it appeared that the en gagements of the firm were 91,000/. After the partners had made a statement of their affairs, an offer to pay a wmposition of 13s. in the pound, by live different instal ments, was made, and was unanimously accepted by the creditors, .who appeared well satisffed with the recent conduct of the partners, and with their ability to extri cate themselves from their present embarrassmrnts. The business of the firm will consequently proceed without interruption. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, Nov. 29. —The market has undergone no change to-day ; the de mand for flannels has been about the same as that of last Monday, and prices quite as low. In the wool market there is no change to report. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, Nov. al.—This was another gloomy • market-day in all sorts of goods, except pilots and other heavy woollens, which were in tolerable de mand. The general trade was decidedly flat, unprofit able, and discouraging. Prices are nominal.

On Monday the three men, Francis, .t.Taylori and Smith,.who have been for some time in the cust.2 l 3 7 of the Hertford police on a charge of highway robber): of an aggravated description, were brought before the Hon. Captain Hotham and a full bench of Magistrates, at the Town-hall. Hertford, for final examination. It will be recollected that the prosecutor, a veterinary sur geon, named Edwards, was returning home from Hert ford market on horseback, about six o'clock in the even ing of the 13th November, and when he arrived near Banger he was assaulted by four men, who dragged him violently to the ground, and then forcibly rifled his per son, and robbed him of some gold and silver, a watch, and other articles. Upon the former examination the procutor swore positively to the identity of two of the prisoners, and expressed a strong belief that the third was also one of his assailants ; and several other wit nesses were examined, who likewise proved that the prisoners, and a fourth man. were seen going in the direction of the place where the robbery occurred, about the time that it was committed. Two of the prisoners at the former examination attempted to establish an alibi, hut the evidence they produced was of a very vague and unsatisfactory character, and the Magistrates remanded the prisoners till this day, to atCord an opportunity for further inquiry. During the interval that has elapsed, Knight, the Superintendent of the Hertford rural p o li ce, succeeded in obtaining further evidence tending to con. firm the former testimony as to the prisoners being see, near the spot where the r obber y was committ ed , and it the Bench, after a searching investigation, said they y felt n be their duty , to commit the p risoners to the county gao l to take their trial at the next assizes, D ISTRES S AT KlLMARNOC d K t . he .....un manufe within to 3:, an the last four years the trade of Kilmarnock a con ditionwas iin of consequence, considerable probse p e e nnabled hitherto to tu .b r e e a rrit :, have, up under the depression better than in many oth er however, that th ere are l i mits disasters in other qu ar t ers are beginning to tell there also. t p n lac e e n s d . nra l l t ic is e, st a ostow nd t f h el e t, totb7eoo greater have been mong the muslin out of regu employm v ent ni dt s ir o i o n . g filar Among the printers, a b out. 500 part of the summer. 1- with out the means of procuring NVOr are at present are only employed two-thirds of '.

The bare necessaries of existence being wanti ng , we need - scarcely say, that, in other res pects, the population is in a rapidly deteriorating condi tion. Rent paying is totally out of the question; new clothes for the person cannot for a moment be thought of ; additional bed clothes and bedding, so necessary to resist the severities of winter, are placed far beyond the reach of these unfortunate individuals. Fever, too, has prevailed to a large extent, adding its ravages to the other misfortunes. The population is, in short, re duced to a condition not superior to what has often been described as the aspect of the worst parts of Ireland. Although the means of relief are not entirely absent, a soup kitchen having been for about two months in opera tion, stilt they fall i'ar short of the exigencies of the case. Many individuals, who h av e been hitherto in com paratively affluent circ ums tances, would gladly take their departure to some of the colonies, in which there is a prospect of bettering their condition, but such is the depreciation in property that it is altogether unsaleable and would not realise above one-half of its former value.

" TO THE PROPRIETORS: " GENTLEMEN,—I feel it a duty I owe to you and to the Public at large, to acknowledge the most important benefit I have received from PARR'S MEE PILLS. I was for nine years a soldier in the 52d Regiment of Foot, and was discharged in October 1839, in consequence of ill health (being deemed con sumptive), after having the best advice her Majesty's service afforded. I returned to my native town, feeling that my days could not be long on earth. But by what almost appears an in terposition of Providence, my attention was directed to Parr's Life Pills, and by taking only two - 2s. 9d. boxes, I was com pletely cured, and am thus a living monument to the good ef fected by this valuable medicine. Within the last few days I have been on a visit to some of my friends in a neighbouring village, where I was told that It was like seeing one risen from the dead, to see me walking through their streets.' I have recommended them to my neighbours, and many of them have experienced very great benefit. from ieir use. " I am, Gentlemen, yours, &c. JOHN OSBORNE. " March 8, 1841.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM TILE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY: POST.—Tb e English Funds were more visibly acted upon to-day than they bad previously - been by the operations of the leading broker:, the sales of whom were resumed, and continued to the extent of about 30,0001. ; but, as the money transactions terminat e d at an e arly hour, and the transfer-books close f or the dividends to morrow, prices, before the business of the day had ended, fully reco vere d t h e i r p re vious eleva tion, and, indeed, exhibited a fractional advance. The delay that is to take place in the payment of the. Portuguese half dividend has created a very bad impression in the minds of parties well versed in the chicanery of the Necessidades, and withal, the deplorable poverty of the Treasury Of Donna Maria. They fear that it is but the too certain precursor of a total re-suspension. Money is said to be alr e ady i n th e hands of the London-wall agency, and if this be true, why carry the business properly belonging to Decem ber over to the month of January ? If it be a manoeuvre, intended only to drive dissentients into the iniquitous- conversion scheme, we may, with confidence, assert • that, after the recent Mansion-house expose, in "re Basto," it will prove a signal, not to say a disgraceful and dis gusting, failure. The Spanish Active Stuck, which is with us no more than 25, is quoted from Madrid at 34-k cash, and 30 at two months. The difference is a puzzle that no one not fully in the secret of Spa nish affairs seems able to interpret. The truth lies, we hope, and believe, in the fact, that the Regency is. fully resolved to put an end most effectually to the system of favouritism and di lapidation which has been so long prevalent in the Government departments of the monarchy, and that the circumstance is hetth known at Madrid than, as Yet; it IS here. • In the purchases of the national property, for instance, the. Gran dees, and others . possessing influence in the highercircl es, have been allowed to take what they wanted, comprising the most enviable and valuabl e domains in the country, for the payment of which, whether in cash or bonds, they have heretofore been held exempt by an Administration as corrupt as themselves. According to the best information we have been able to obtain, the present ener getic Government have come upon these courtly and wealthy defaulters with a decree for which they were little prepared. It is determined that the abuse, which has been carried to a most scandalous extent, shall be instantly put a stop to. Purchasers of all ranks will be required, without distinction, to pay up, not only the sums originally due to the State, but the rents and interests also of various kinds accruing on their respective lots from two to seven years. This is the only rational solution that has been given us of the anomalous state _of the two mar kets, and certainly the acceptance of the finan cial agency of Spain by, a house so distinguished for its integrity as that of Aguirre, Solarte, and Muricta is calculated to induce a,confidence in the adoption, on the part of the Regency, of a TIMES.—The notice of ti been but too long tolerated. system of credit the n yerse of that which has other day, seems by the American Cuba by the English, which was oentioned the )e acquisition of paper' Pretty generally diffused over the Union. Severe:. °t. the Journals speak of an interference of Eng land in the affairs of that island as portending SOMC decisive movement. Hence the state of feeling in Cuba has been closely watched, to ob serve if there is any sign from which a willing ness to exchange a Spanish for an English ruler might be inferred. A New Orleans paper states that at the latest dates from Cuba the Creoles and some of-the old Spaniards talked of rendering themselves independent of Spain, many regarding Espartero as no more than an usurper, whom they were not bound to obey, and the heavy imposts laid on many of the necessaries of life tending greatly to foment the spirit of discontent. The fears of a result like that at - St. Domingo it is suppoSed might operate as a check against a re volutionary outbreak, and the Americans are willing enough to suppose that the anti-slavery doctrines of this country would be sufficient to prevent any coalition with Cuba; but still the obvious anxiety with which the subject is dis cussed shows that they do not consider the pos sibility of the English acquiring the island so remote as they affect to believe. All the ad vantages that were suggested the other day from a private source ,are admitted in the American papers themselves, and the writers perceive clearly enough that the addition of Cuba to our other islands would, as it were, draw a net round the Gulf of Mexico and the mouth of the , Mis sissippi, and place the e x p orts f rom t h e south of the Union completely in our po we r. The last Gazette contained the return of the circulation of notes in the United Kingdom ac cording to the new Act, embracing the period of lbw- weeks preceding the 13th of November. w From this ret urn i t appears that the average cir culation of th e B an k of En ;land for the above mentioned peri o d was 17,065,0001.. which shows a decrease, as comparedith the preceding he four weeks ending the 10th of October,. of 0 75,0001. The country ci rcu l at i on in England shows decrease, as c ompared with t prece ding month, Of 63,4901., whi c h h as been produced' by a de crease in the Joint-Stock Banks of 68,2491. less a slight increase in the private banks of 34,7591. The total decrease in the circulation of England is, therefore, 338,490/. In Scotland there has been an increase of 179,3331., and in Ireland an increase of 693,5411. The result of the whole, therefore, presents an increase in the total circulation of the United Kingdom of 539,3841,, being the excess of the average of the month en di ng t h e 13 t h o f No vember, as compared with the! month ending the 16th of October. The average amount of bullion in the Bank of England during the month ending the 13th of November was 4,2181., showha a decrease as compared with the precedi ng mon th o f 72,000/. This amount agrees with tol era ble accuracy with the estimate which was formed from the last quarterly return of the Bank of England ending the 9th of November. CHRONICLE.—The Bank broker has been operating largely to-day as a seller of Etock. These sales are effected under the Funding Act of last session, which empowered the Govern ment to create a new stock for any deficiency under the loan of a,000,000i. The jobbers, we believe, had anticipated these sales, and had pre pared themselves accordingly, by selling Bears, so as to enable them to take them without incon venience. The discredit in the Exchequer bill market has also tended to support the funds; and although money stock has been offered out freely both yesterday and to-day, prices have not receded. SUN.— There has been a slight rally in the quotations of public securities to-day, although in the morning the Market opened rather heavily. onsols for immediate transfer ranged from 884 to 89-i..

A meeting of the subscribers to this Association was held laSt evening at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate_ hill, to receive a statement of the account?, and theße port from the Secretary ; also to elect a Committee for the year ensuing, and to adopt resolutions' relatiYe to the ..Aesociation. Mr. Alderman Wasort was proposed and took the chair. and iu doing so said he,regretted that a more effi cient person had not been chosen. Both the Lord Mayor and Mr. Alderman Kelly had been prevented from at tending by illness. Ile had seen letters from each, apolo gising for their non-attendance. Re then called on The . SECRETAIir to read the Report, from which it appeared that 780 tons of coals, and 268,000 bushels of potatoes had been distributed. It expressed a hope that the public would come forward and assist the Committee in their exertions. _ _ _ The Report Win then adopted, and ordered .to be printed, so that a copy might be sent to each subscriber. Mr. HARTWELL read a letter from Mr. Alderman Kelly, apologising for his non-attendance on recount of ill health. lie (Mr. Hartwell) had known Mr. Alder man Kelly for a long time, and he knew that no one felt more anxiety for that institution than he did. He had given it his constant attention, and he therefore begged leave to propose that the thanks of that meeting be given to Mr. Alderman Kelly, as Vice-President of the Institu tion, for the eminent services rendered by him to the Association, for his constant attention on the Com mittee, and general attention to the interests of the cha rity; and that he be requested to accept the office of Trea surer for the year ensuing. The resolution having been seconded, was put and carried unanimously. Mr. Deputy WESTWOOD proposed that Mr. Phipps be requested to act again as Secretary, and that the thanks of the meeting be given to him for his past services. The CHAIRMAN, in submitting the motion, said that Mr. Phipps had been their Secretary from the commence ment of the institution, and he hoped they should still possess his valuable services. The motion was carried unanimously. Mr. rum's briefly returned thanks. The Rev. Mr. DCMIAM proposed the thanks of the meeting to the Committee for the past year, for their efficient services. The CHAIRMAN, on behalf of the Committee, returned thanks, and begged to say they were much obliged by this mark of the approbation of the subscribers, for the services of the Committee, and on their part he begged to assure them that they were ever ready to carry out the objects of the Society. Mr. HARDING moved that each subscriber present at this meeting be allowed the usual twelve tickets in ad dition.—This was agreed to. The Rev. Mr. DURHAM then proposed that the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor; their Vice-President,Mr. Alder man Kelly, and the following gentlemen, be on the Com mittee for the year ensuing, viz., Mr. Alderman Wilson, and Mr. Alderman Gibs, Deputy Westwood, and Messrs. Dartnell, Simpson, Donford, Farrard, and Lott. The long residence that he (Mr. Durham) had had in that city enabled him to speak most favourably of the character of each of the gentlemen named for the Com mittee for the ensuing year. He need not, and he would not, in the presence of their worthy Chairman, say any thing with respect to him, for he was ever forward in the cause of charity.—(Hear, hear.) Messrs. Gibbs and Dartnell were ever indefatigable in their exertions to promote that charity, and the other gentlemen were equally so. He begged, therefore, to propose that they be elected on the Committee. The motion, being seconded, was carried unanimously. The SECRETARY then read the statement of the ac counts, from which it appeared that the receipts were— Cash in hand, on the 30th of March, 1840, 34UL 14s. 10d.; -. ett :ee of coals in hand, 821. ss. ; sale of coals, from De :840,.t0 March, 1841, 5601. 95.; sale of potatoes 280/. 4s. 6d.. ; subscriptions of cember, a total of 2,444/. ls. And the in the same k 9eri °d , leaving a balance of 840/. 13s. 6d. ; maL l ug of cash at the bankers of expenses were 1,7871. .178. 5d.,656/. 33. 7d., which consisiete 2411. 11d.; coals in hand 11/. zw Bd., and one Exche quer bill for 4001. - The statement of the accounts was eNfirmed, and ordered to be printed, and a copy sent to each att;:geriber. Mr. GOLDSMID said ho hoped the different compOies and liveries of the metropolis would come forward atm assist them. He had heard that the Ironmongers' Company had recently had an accession to their funds of 10,000/. per annum. He had received a letter that morning informing him that no less than one thousand printers were at that moment out of employ, and he therefore begged to suggest that an early delivery would be advi,?,able of coals and potatoes. A gentleman, whose name did not transpire said, he was a member of the Ironmongers' Company, and he could state that they 1i;,,,51 determined upon a subscription to this Society of 21/. Of Annum. Th e c vAiR mAN sa id h e e ovi,l bear testimony to the liberality of the Ironmongers' ConipOy, as well as many others of the City. Some discussion then arose as to the time tLe delivery of coals and potatoes should commence. Mr. Deputy WESTIOOD said he , would read an ex , tract from their hook, by which itappeared that in the last season during the ensuing weeks only 600 persons ap plied for relief, whilst in the latter weeks they exceeded eleven hundred. Thus was the kitchen being carried on at a large expense without a sufficient beneficial result. This partly arose from opening it too long, and sub scribers keeping back their tickets for distribution. After a short discussion the subject was referred to the Committee. Mr. Scow said.. a very pleasing duty bad devolved upon him, but one which he regretted had not fallen into abler hands. It was to move a vote of thanks to their worthy Chairman, in which he felt assured they would all concur.--(Cheers.) The charities of London were its brightest ornaments ; for London stood pre-eminent in the world for her charitable institutions, and it was de lightful to think that so many Aldermen and gentlemen of the City, contributed not only with their purses, but attended personally to the different charities.—(llear, • hear.) During the few years he had been connected with that institution, he had frequently had the pleasure of witnessing their worthy Chair Man forsake the hospi talities of the Mansion-house, in order that that Society should not suffer by his absence. They had a Chairman that evening for whose attendance they were peculiarly indebted, because he had filled his magisterial duties throughout the day, and had come in the inclemency of the weather to that meeting. They would. recollect that during the mayoralty of their excellent friend he had endeavoured to reduce the price of those articles they were that evening met to distribute. rle had great pleasure in proposing a vote of thanks. This was carried amidst loud cheers. , The CHAIRMAN said he was exceedingly obliged to them .for that mark of their approbation, shown by the manner in which they had received that motion. That was the first charity he had subscribed to, and for thirty years he had not failed to attend at the various meetings. With respect to the question of coals. he would say that he had not accomplisEcd all he could hare wished, still he was quite sure they had coals much cheaper than for merly, and he thought they would still be reduced. The meeting then separated. PENINSULAR AND ORIENTAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY. The first Annual General Meeting of the Proprietors of this Company was held on Tuesday, at the Company's Offices, St. Mary-Axe. Sir George Larpent, Baronet, Chairman of the Company, read the Ileport of the 1)i -rectors, together with the Abstract of the Annual Ac counts laid before the Proprietors. From these it ap peared, that the profit on the operations of the Com pany for the year ending 30th September last, was 50,61-1/. 16s. 9a. That after paying for premiums of insurance, keeping up the wear and tear of the vessels, and a dividend of 3f per cent. declared in May last, there remained a surplus of 26,5851. 18s., out of which a further dividend of 3} per cent. was declared, being at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum ; and a sum of 15,3571. 14s. 6d. then remaining was carried to the Re served Fund. The present position of the Company's subscribed capital and resources, were stated to be as follows:- 6,092 shares of 501. each, paid up and invested £. in the Company's property New shares taken in England and Ireland; viz 3,241 shares of 501. each, instalment paid thereon 31,505 New Shares taken in India:- 732 shares in Calcutta Instalments paid...... 21,135 583 " Madras 10648 shares of 501. each, amount paid thereon 357,240 Of which sum of 357,2401. the ,Company had in hand in cash, bills, and other available securities, on the Ist of October last, the sum of 48,906/. 9s. 9d., and the addi tional instalment on the shares subscribed for as above, amounting to 174,255/. will only be called for and become payable as the extension of the Company's operations to the East India Presidencies may require those funds. With such means at their disposal, it is not contemplated by the Directors that the present engagements of the Company will require a further issue of now shares in England, or Ireland, except to a moderate extent, in the event of entering into further contracts for the mail service with her Majesty's Government. The Report also alluded to the possibility of a more frequent communication than a monthly . one, being at no distant perio d established with India, in which case the grant of 100,000/. made to the Company by the Honourable East India Company, would probably merge into a contract for the mail service.. The opening of a transit by Mehemet Ali for merchandise to and 'rom India and through Egypt, was likewise announced in the Report, and ca subsequently a vote of thanks to the P ac h a was moved rid rried by atclamation. The reading of the Report elicited marked expressions of satisfaction from the Proprietors, Was unanimously adopted, and after a vote of thanks to the Chairman and the Directors, the meeting adjourned.

Last evening Mr. liaise repeated the lecture which he had delivered on Monday, in the same theatre, the City Hall, Chancery-lane. A most respectable company, comprised of about one hundred persons, ladies and gentlemen, attended for nearly three hours to the lecture and illustrations, which, strange to say, were never for elucidate, o i d f ate , to exhi biting a moment interrupted,. and appeared to b e i n t h e highest degree satisfactory.

INTELLIGENCE.—The Meteor steam-vessel, Commander M. A. Slater (acting), with the crew of the Lightning, arrived on Monday at Woolwich, from Scot land, and is to be paid off. A melancholy accident took place shortly after her arrival, one of the stokers hav ing fallen down when at work, and died instan tanecasly ; from what cause has not yet been aseer ; - tabled, but it was evidently accidental. The Lightning is ordered to be commissioned with a crew of 26 men. The Devastation steam-frigate, Commander Hastings Reginald Henry, was delayed sailing from va rious exists, and it was fully expected would have left Woolwich on Monday. In anticipation of that being- tilt case, the Bishop of Jerusalem, with his family and a great number of friends and members of a Committee interested in the mission to the Holy Land, accompanied him . on board, purposing to leave the vessel at Graves end. Commander Henry having become very unwell, the sailing of the Devastation was again delayed, and tile Bishop's friends and party landed at the dockyard, to ra turn to town. Commander Henry's illness continued unabated yesterdey, and in consequence the Devastation sailed for the Mediterranean about two o'clock in Cite afternoon, the commander intending tti proceed, as soon as he can bear the fatigue of the journey, Via' Marseilles, to join her at Malta.'

It will be seen from the following article, which we have translated literally from the Faedrelondel, a Copen hagen newspaper, of the 19th of _November last, that there is no disposition in Denmark to suppre.is the statements made in this country by the Baptist mis sionaries on the subject of their persecuted brethren in Denmark : " Under the head 'Religions Persecution in Den mark,' the Morning Chronicle of the 11th of NOve m b er gives a report of a . public meeting which was held on the loth, in-a Baptist chapel in 6outhwark, in which the Baptist ministers, Mr. W. Dawson and Mr. J. E. Giles, communicated the result of their , mission t* Denmark. Mr. Giles said that they had °knitted without difficulty, en their arrival, an audience of the King, Who had listened with the utmost patience and kindness; and ultimately oMred to set the Baptists who Were under arrest at liberty, if "they would promise to 'abstain from preaching until the law on the subject was altered; that he. had .at the same - time proposed that .they should in the meantime go to three towns which he mimed. From the King they had gone to. the Bishop, . who received them coolly ; he had not asked them to take a seat, but had himself smoked hi, pipe the the whole time ; he would enter into no discussion . on subject, but abruptly met whatever was :urged with the brief answer that such was the law. Yet he sdinitted that, with regard to dipping in water, they were by no means in the wrong ; the only thing he had to urge against it was, that they separated themselves from the Lutheran church, and there Mr. Giles thought was the secret of the opposition, as the Establishsd Church was interested for its fees. When the; King's offer was an nounced to the prisoners they refused to accept it, on. this ground—that they found no passage in the Scrip tures which authorised them to accept it, and they thought i h ,:t the King had no better right to exact their silence for ti l•ree months than for three years, or even for their lifetin „,• Mr. Giles said, moreVer, that before they could communk ,...e to the King this answer in an official man ner, lie and is colleagues had taken their d eparture f or England, to col:sult with the Baptist Society about the affair. since his - et.urn he had h ea r t : that t wo B apt i sts we re imprisoned, but t;,e had learned frote: Mrs. Fry that the Queen of Denmark, Who had constantly' shown her self friendly to the Socie a t n y i . in fluence on their behalf, in th ee at ss u a i n e t lt ly in f g Ae h t s d t;i h i e o r fteni in a ie w re a , y i w n hi E c i lu i li tt.. o n v ti v , ed th t e hte p t oi t i t e t a li t e c h o • E s r i e d l e i , gi a o n u d s the liberty,if lor n n .as i g o f C c t on ro: siderable influence in Denmark.

He had been to a woman of the town till she was first confirmed in the Lutheran Church.

Evidence was heard at length on the two charges, when the Ma g i s .. trates fined Lark in the mitigated penalty of 51., and Is in many parts the t -Black missed the other charge.
