The different ingredients contained in FRANKS'S SPECIFIC SOLUTION OF COPAIBA, are those advised by the most practi. cal and scientific in the profession, but, by a peculiar chemical pro cess so compounded that each drug greatly increases the efficacy of the other.

The sixth anniversary festival in aid of the Asylum for the relief of aged and decayed freemasons, was held yesterday at the Freemasons' Tavel'n. Mr. Benjamin Wood, the Member for Southwark, was expected to take the chair, but owing to the excitement caused by the forthcoming election, and the duties which he has to perform towards his constituents, he could not attend, and sent a letter stating the cause of his absence, and inclosing the sum of 101. for the benefit of the Institu tion. Mr. J. Copeland Bell was proposed by Dr. Cru cifix as chairman, and appointed by general acclamation. About 150 sat down to dinner, which was served up in excellent style, and in the gallery were many ladies who appeared to take great interest in the Institution. Among the rest, Miss Hawes and Miss Turner, who volunteered their services on the occasion. Mr. Broad hurst also lent his aid in support of the Institution. After the usual loyal toasts, the Chairman called the at tention of the meeting to the great object of the evening, the asylum for aged and decayed freemasons. He stated that at the commencement it met with great opposition, bat had finally triumphed, and was now in a flourishing condition. He then gave, " Success to the Asylum for the worthy Aged and Decayed Freemasons." The toast was drank with great applause. An address was then pronounced by Mr. Osbaldiston in favour of the Institution, which was followed by two stanzas, written by Mr. J. Lee Stevens, and beauti fully sung_ by Miss Turn er . Th ey were rapturously en cored, and the words were so appropriate for the occa sion, that we should not be justified in omitting tirAn, and we therefore give them at length:— " Where pleasures beam, where joys abour.d Where happy hearts a l one are found , Where even love may deign to be There still is room for Charity ', The brightest eyes may righter smile— WheThe warmest heard l, may warmer glow— t • That from enjoy,- .nents turn awhile, 'To dry the tears of want and woe ! " And where ' unhappy discord reigns, Where • assion frowns with s t ar ti ng ve i ns , "fe even h a t re d we may see, T'Aere still is ro om f or Ch ar i ty ! For, yielding to her pure delight, Contending hearts more genial grow, And foes that were, as friends unite, To dry the tears of want and woe !" The CIIAIRI"IAN then gave the health of the Treasurer,. br. Crucifix, and paid a high compliment to this old friend of the brotherhood, for the active part he had taken in the cause of charity. Dr. CRUCIFIX returned thanks in a speech of much feeling, for which we regret we cannot find room, and stated at the conclusion, that the Society was in a pros perous condition, and that after meeting all expenses, they had funds to the amount of 3,1001. The Secretary then read the report and the list of subscriptions fir: the year. Among others were Lord Southampton, 2.1/. ; —Goldsworthy, Esq., 21/. ; —Tancred, Esq., 10 guireAs; Browse, Esq, 10 guineas; J. Vink, Esq., 10 g - uir. eas; C. Vink, Esq., 10 guineas; J. Ander- • son, Esq.. Proprietor of the British Queen Newspaper, 2 guineas, and. 'a great number of others, whose subscrip tions amounted altogether to 540/. The dinner and at tendance was excellent, and the evening altogether was spent with that hilarity, good humour, and friendly feel ing, which so eminently characterise this ancient and mysterious institution. REPRESENTATION OF MARYLE BONE. A numerous meeting of the electors of All Souls District of this Borough was held yesterday at the Sun and Horse Shoe, Great Tichlield-street, for the purpose of taking measures to secure a full attenda'lice of the Reformers at the great Ballot meeting which is te, take place this day in the Theatre of the Colosseum. Mr. DEnics, 'having been unanimously voted to the Chair, explained the object of the meeting to be that the Reformers resident in 'the district should be made fully acquainted with. the natur e and objects of the Ballot to be taken the next by agreement of the rival Refo r m can did a t es , at t ue ‘-' OlO sseum. The object was to determtr se w hi c h of the two, g.: .r C. Napier or Mr. Young, ought to retire from the IPPtv aching contest, to avoid a division of the Reform in tertst---( Hear, hear, hear.) It was agreed that the result of 1 that brallot should influence not only the candidates but their ri".encis ; and that if Mr. Young should be in the minority his , friends would do all in their power to promote the return of Commodore Napier and Sir Benjamin Hall.—(Cheers.) if, on the contrary, Sir Charles Napier should be in the minority, his friends were bound by a similar pledge.—(Loud cheers.) If any elector had a resolution to propose connected with the purpose for which the meeting was called, he was ready to hear him ; if not, Mr. Wilson, a member of the Central Committee, would explain the manner in which tke ballot was to be conducted.—( Applause, and cries of ~ Wilson Wilson.") Mr. VinsoN said all present were aware that a schism, deeply to be deplored, had arisen amongst the Reformers of the borough, to which he would not now allude, as a means had been! determined on, by the consent of both sections of the Liberals, by which their differences w ould be terminated, he hoped, for ever.—(Cheers.) He then read the circular letter which had been sent, enclosing a bal lotting card, to each of the 8,750 registered electors who had j voted for a Liberal. at former elections, or had been registered . ' si n ge the last election. No person would be allowed to ballot . who did not show to the scrutineers the letter which he had re , •eived ; and the only pledge to be required. if any one, was, that he would not vote for Cabbell; or Hamilton.--(Cheers.) A resolution was then unanimously agreed to, pledging the ionofthecbanidldlot,atae whondto m el e ee rg to e rs th p e r i e r se s n ep t a t r o at a e bi y d i e ew b s y i t n he division support of the candidate who should be in the majority at the close of what was termed by one of the speakers the " Reform Poll." Thanks having been voted to the Chairman, and to Mr. Wilson. the meeting separated. A similar meeting, with Mr. Churchwarden Gibson in the chair, was held at the Half-Moon, Clipstone-street, in which Mr. Wilson again explained the manner in which the ballot was to be taken. After three enthusiastic cheers for Sir C. Napier, and a vote of thanks to the Chairman, the meeting separated at a late hour, its prolongation being occasioned by the numbers of electors who came up to.receive information as to the mode of Iproceedings to be adopted at the great meeting of this day. Similar meetings were held at the Bee Hive, Somers' 'I own, the Royal Oak, Pickering-terrace, Bayswater, and at the - White Lion, Edgeware-road. t LONDON, WEDNESDAY, .11 UNE 16, 1841 No 15,219 TO THE ADMIRERS OF ART IN CONNECTION g i r rHE SEVENTH ANNUAL EXHIBI !

The prize essays were then recited by the fortunate concur rents, the prizes having been determined by the Vice-Chan cellor, the two Proctors, Public Orator, and Professor of Poetry, as follows : For English Verse.—" The Sandwich Islands Lucas, Commoner of Queen's College. For Latin Verse.—" Via per An'liam Ferro stratm." Fre deric Fanshaw, S'elolar of Baliol College. For English Essay.—" The pleasures and advantages of literary pursuits compared with those which arise from the excitement of political life." George Marshall, Student of Christ Church, and Craven Scholar. TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE. GENTLEMEN,--. ADissolution of Parliament is at hand, - and you will shot tly be called upon to exercise your most valuable rir,hts as Freemen. Permit me on this occasion to solicit your suffrages. " Samuel The son of a Member of Parliament, my attention has been early directed to th e sc i ence of politics, an d I h ave t h ere learned to recogni se th e great principle of equal rights and equal privileges. I th ere ore avow i mself behlly, unhesita tingly, uncomp rom i s i ng l y, the advocate of Un i versa l S u ff rage, which shall secure to every adalt male a right to vote in the locality wherein he resides. The recognition of that right I believe to be the best security for the rich, as it is the oi:ly guarantee for the poor. lam decidedly opposed to the New Poor-law Amendment Act—the principle which has been avowed by its advocates, that no distinction shall be made be tween poverty, the effect of misfortune or the fruit of crime, I detect as equally repugnant to the feelings of humanity and the dictates of Christianity. The centralized authority of the Poor-law Commissioners I look upon as unconstitutional—its exercise as heartless and tyrannical. My best efforts, there fore, would he directed to its repeal, and a return to those, principles which shall secure the benefits of the Act of Eliza beth without its abuses. Having, atter obtaining the highest academical honours, car efully studied in the three faculties of Law, Medicine, and Theology, I venture to hope that my services might prove useful upon the many questions connected with such subjects as come before the Parliament. Being a resident in your borough, its local interests will ne• cessirily engag my best attention. Should you do me the honour to elect me as your representative, I trust you will find me active in business, unremitting in exertion, and unwearied in application. Neither hig nor Tory, it would be my proud boast to be indeed and in truth the Representative of the People. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient humble servant, WILLIAM VILLIERS SANKEY, M.A. 30, Harmood-street, June 15, 1841. For Latin Essay.—" De Etruscorum cultu, kgibus, f t mo ribus, eorumque apud Romanos vestigiis." Benjamin Jowett, Fellow of Baliol College. Portions of the English poem were superior to thz! average productions of this description. The Latin poem, which was in very smooth hexameters, contained occasional and rather marked reminiscences of Virgil. Many of the allusions to the marvels of steam, which in its Latinized form of " vapor" sounded un peu mesquin, were very felicitous. The poem con cluded with a rural picture, embodying the buco:ic image of a herd of cattle drinking ; and the descriptive words-- . " dulcemque bibunt a fluorine vitam," provoked a laugh by the obvious quiz which they suggested upon that great modern rival of steam—teetotalism. At the conclusion of the recital of the prize essays, his Royal Highness and the Chancellor retired, amidst similar plaudits to those which hailed their entrance, and were fol lowed by the heads of houses, and the noble and other dis tinguished visitors,upon which the theatre was speedily cleared. His Royal Highness, attended by the members of his suite, then proceeded to the Town .hall, for the purpose of receiving addresses Vora the city and the county. His Royal Highness was received at the door of the Town-hall by the Mayor, the High Steward (his Grace the Duke of Marlborough), the Aldermen of the City, the Members of the Common Council, and the Town Clerk. Mr. Maclean, M.P. for the City, was also present. The Town-hall was fitted up very tastefully with banners, and a platform was constructed for the accom modation of 500 ladies, which was densely filled. His Royal Highness was conducted to the Council Cham ber, when, having taken his seat upon a chair of honour, he was pleased to receive an address, which was read by the Town Clerk, to which the Prince made a suitable reply. Sir. J. LOVELEY; High Sheriff, then read to his Royal Highness an address from the county of Oxford, to which his Royal Highness was pleased to return a suitable reply. 'The foregoing address was agreed to at a meetini , of the nobility, clergy, and gentry, which took place on Trrday last at the Star Hotel, for the ;purpose of voting an address to his Royal Highness, and at which the chair was taken by the High Sheriff, who called the meeting in pursuance of a. requi sition which he had previously received. The address was pro. posed by his • Grace the Duke of Marlborough, seconded by Lord Churchill, and carried unanimously. Immediately after the presentation of these eddresses, the Prince proceeded to St. John's College, where a sumptuous entertainment was served up in the hall, at which all the heads of houses and many of the other dist:nguithed visitors were present. His Royal Highness, attended by his Once the Chancellor, and the heads of houses, then proceeded to visit the chief ob jects of attraction in the University, the Bodleian library, Christ's Church, the University printing-office, Dr. Buck land's Museum, &c. At four o'clock his Roi al Ilighwess at tended Divine service in the beautiful chapel of New Hall, the most elegant ecclesiastical edifice in Oxford, where sixteen choristers executed the appropriate Church music with admi rable precision and beauty. At five o'clock precisely his Royal Highness returned to Nuneham to dinner, loudly cheered by the numerous spectators, and escorted as before by the Oxford. shire Yeomanry Cavalry. In about half an hour afterwards his Grace the Duke of Wellington set out (as we understood) for Blenheim, the seat of his Grace the Duke of Marlborough, which it is his Royal Highness's intention to visit this day, and return in the evening to Nuneham.

The announced intention of his Royal Highness Prince Al bert to visit Oxford yesterday, combined with the circumstance of that being the day appointed for the annual commemora t on of the founders and benefactors of the various Colleges and Halls, drew together from London, and the connties sur rounding this ancient seat of learning, a vast concourse of spec tators of the various interesting proceedings of which Oxford was the scene. Her Majesty and Prince Albert arrived at Nuneham, the scat of his Grace the Archbishop of York, shortly after two o'clock on Monday, where great preparations were made for their reception A large party of students from the Uni versity repaired to Nuneham by water, rowing up the pictu tn - esque windings of their favourite Isis, and joined en.. thusia3tically in the acclamations by which her Majesty and Prince Albert were received on their arrival. The "de monstration" was continued with so hearty a vigour long alter her Majesty and the Royal suite had entered the Archbishop's splendid residence that her Majesty and Prince Albert were induced to present themselves on the balcony, nothing short of which would apparently satisfy their numerous admirers, and the acclamation was thereupon renewed with increased fervour. A hope was for some time entertained by the young gentlemen from the University that her Majesty would accompany the Prince in his visit to Oxford. But this hope was presently dispelled, her Majesty having been dissuaded by cogent reasons from accompany ing her Royal consort, amongst which it is sullicient to particularize this one—that the University author rities would have been compelled, by ancient prescription, to grant an entire teem—a concession which would have been at tended with great inconvenience. Precisely at nine o'clock his Grace the Duke of Wellington, ever distinguished by military precision as to time, drove into the principal street, and set down at the Angel Hotel, where he partook of breakfast. Throughout the entire course of his progress from the outskirts of the town the applause was tu multuous, and in front of the hotel an immense crowd soon congregated, by whom, on his subsequent appearance, lie was received with similar demon,trations. His Grace wore his usual looks, and appeared exceedingly well pleased by the proceedings of the day throughout. Shortly after ten o'clock his Royal Highness Prince Albert, who breakfasted at Nuneham with her Majesty, drove into the town in an open carriage and four, with outriders, es corted by Lord Norreys' troop of Oxfordshire Yeomaery Cavalry. His Royal Highness was accompanied by his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, and a second carriage and four contained Lord George Lennox, Sir E. Bowater, and Mr. Anson, of the Prince's suite. At twenty minutes past 10 his Royal Highness entered into the centre of the knot of build ings called" The Schools," where he was received by his Grace the Duke of Wellington, in his full robes as Chancellor of the University, and by all the heads of house;, also in their state costume. At half-past ten the folding doors were thrown open, and the distinguished procession, headed by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and his Grace the Chancellor of the Univer •sity, entered the theatre. The applause which hailed their appearance no power of language could describe. The entire theatre was filled—the under circle with elegantly dressed ladies, the galery with a throng of under-graduates, recalling Milton's description of Pandemonium by the density with which they were packed head over head, and not a little too, perhaps, by the discordant noises to which they gave utter ance without intermission. The centre of the hall was allo cated to the Masters of Arts, non-resident as well as resident, and this was also completely filled. Within the circle set apart for the collegiate dignitaries and the dis tinguished visitors his Grace the Chancellor took his seat at the centre. His Royal Highness Prince Albert occupied a chair of state at his Grace's left, and behind his Royal High ness stood Lord G. Lennox, Gentleman in Waiting, and Mr. G. E. Anson, Private Secretary to the Prince, both attired in the Windsor uniform. The Prince, who looked a little pale, but otherwise exceedingly well, wore the gown of a Doctor of Civil Law over a black suit, cut in the style of the Windsor uniform ; his Royal Highness also wore the garter on his left knee, and the star and ribaud of the Order, which were also wont by his Grace the Chancellor, and the several other Knights of the Order (about half a dozen) who were p - esent. At the Chancellor's left stood the Vice-Chancellor,• and some paces beneath, at either side, the senior and junior Proctor. Amongst the distinguished persons who had seats on the dais, we observed his Grace the Duke of Marlborough, his Grace the Duke of Sutherland, the Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry, Ladies Alexan drine and Frances Vane, Lord Adolphus Vane, Ea'l Jersey, Lady Clementine Villiers, Earl of Eldon ' Lord Prudbie, Lady Ward, the Hon. Miss Wa r d, D r . Phillimore, Lady Caroline Hamilton, Miss Hamilton, Lord Churchill, Lord Ward, Vis cOunt Seaham, Marquis of Blandford, Lord H. Loftus, Lord Edwin Hill, Earl of Liverpool, Lord Cranley, Dean of Here ford, Colonel 13ouverie, the Archbishop of York, the Bishops of London, Chichester, and Winchester, Sir R. H. Inglis, Bart., M.P., Mr. Estcourt, M.P., Mr. Maclean ' M.P., &c. The successive rounds of applause w hi c h saluted the proces sion as it moved towards the platform lasted for at least five minutes. When the applause had subsided, the undergradu ates in the gallery gave cut in succession " the Queen" and " The Prince" with great applause. To these succeeded " The Duke," with an equal amount of enthusiasm. In the course of reading the Act of Convocation, when his Grace the Chancellor alluded by name to " Augustissimns I'rinceps Albertus," the mention of his Royal Highness was hailed by bud and prolonged cheers. His Grace the Chancellor then, turning towards Prince Albert, read an Address to him from the University. The Chancellor then handed this Address, beautifully writ ten on vellum, and sealed with the University seal, enclosed in a case of gold, to his Roy al Highness, who was graciously pleased to accept it, and briefly returned thanks for the honour thus conferred upon him, expressing the deep satisfaction which it afforded him to visit this renowned seat of earning—a satisfaction which was enhanced by his recollection of the favour previously conferred upon him by admitting him an honorary member of their distinguished University. The Prince's brief Address was received with the loudest shouts of approbation. " Three cheers for Prince Albert," were called for, and the call was responded to by nine rounds of applause. The Public Orator then delivered an address in Latin, ap propriate to the occasion of his Royal Highness's eisit to the University, and alluding in extremely felicitous terms to the distinguished annals of the house of . Saxe Coburg. Ad verting to the merits of his Royal Highness's glorious ances tor, the Elector Frederic: , , p t a h p e cd o l Orator er co st u it p i l o e n d i th .a e c n e name of Frederick with that of Luther amidst the l ou d est applause, which reached its acme when he described the Prime's re nowned progenitor as hostis " His Grace the Chancellor then conferred the honorary de gree of Doctor in Civil Law upon the following noblemen and gentlemen : —His Grace the Duke of Marlborough, his Grace the Duke of Sutherland, the Earl of Liverpool, Earl Camden, Lord Ashley, Lord Prudhoe, Sir John Johnston, Bart., Sir Edward Bowater, K C. 8., and Mr. John Loveley, high sheriff of the county of Oxford. The announcement of each name was received with applause. His Grace the Chancellor in each instance pronounced the words Admitto to ad gralum doctor's in lege eivili honoris caus,,," and then turning to the commuray, inquired in a loud tone of voice, " Placet ?" to which the response was in each case the most deafening cheers. The Public Orator preceded the announcement of the dignity conferred upon each individual by a happily worded panegyric. In the cases of the -several noble aspirants, he dwelt on their high lineage, and on the great public acts in which they and their ancestors h a d taken part. When it came to Sir E. Bowater's tu rn , h e alluded to ns renechtialinled of fhe thats o sonorous Latinis ms i n " fought en fi eld.

The under-graduates havit.g wound themselves up to a pitch of great excitement, manifested a disposition to be obstrepe rous for a longer period than was consistent with •"fhe conclave's grave decorum," and the illustrious Chancellor repeatedly put up hi s h an d , an d had several times to shake his bead , which - was done, however, in the most good humoured manner, before he could reduce the refractory to submission; No doubt his Grace found it much mote difficult to command his collegiate phalmx than he ever had found it to regulate the movements of 50,000 troot-s in battle. Wl,en silence was restored, Professor Kebble pronounced from the rostrum the Creweian oration in Latin, . • contain:nu. POPULAR EDITION.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which far some unaccountable reason have teen either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the et dinary practitioner. T o ent er i n to th e details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement.

F, FERGUSON CAMROUX, See, THE PRESIDENT STEAIII-SHIP. Throughout yesterday the office of the British and American Steam Navigation Company was besieged by the numerous relatives and friends of the crew and pas sengers on board the long-missing steam-ship President for the purpose of ascertaining whether there was P truth in a report, ver y current i n t h e C i ty, that pP .rt u her crew had been picked up at sea.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR-My attention has ' just been called to a report in the Morning Chronicle of this day, that I intend to be come a candidate for the borough of Lambeth at the approaching election. To my father's long and consistent support cf Liberal principles in that borough, anti my own active co-opera tion in all its political contests, I can readily trace the origin of this rumour, which I feel it my imperative duty immediately to contradict. Cordially concurring with the present patriotic Mem bers for Lambeth on all questions of civil and religious liberty and progressive reform, no consideration would induce me, übder such circumstances, to disturb that union, which I trust will be firmly cemented for their support amongst all classes of Liberals, should a Tory be rash enough to oppose their return. The Queen, by the advice of her Ministers, is about to call on the people to decide whether they will in future have extended commerce, improved resources, and re newed'prosperity, or baneful monopoly, depressed indus try, and increased taxation. At such a crisis, that man would be the worst enemy of the great cause at stake, who, by provoking a division in the Liberal ranks, afforded to any Tory monopolists even a faint hope of misrepresenting a borough which has always held a prominent position in the struggles for freedom. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, J. HINDI?, PALMER. Reform Club, 15th June.
