Ler is the..very impartial manner in which his ip's judicious discrimination has been exercised ;election, less worthy of praise than his success in. lishing the extent of this promotion; As regards inneement of Captains to Flags, that is governed by seniority ; therefore we can only express our grati fication at finding so many distinguished names added to the list of Admirals, whilst others, intimately associated with our naval renown, have attained to higher g rades. The Lieutenants promoted to Comm an d ers ,, inz,,,n:qm ber no less than eighty, hare al s o b een se l ecte d with strict impartiality ; and in respect to these, the First' Lord has laid down a principle which we trust' will go vern future general promotions. One indispensable con dition in the claims of the selected candidate was, that if promoted to Lieutenant prior to 1830, he should have served afloat five years in that rank ; if promoted subse quent to that year, four years. The reason of the distinc tion was,hecause the first term embraced:a much larger. (-'tent than the last, and therefore afforded more Opportu city for service. This principle has been rigidly acted on, and many : disappointed candidates may, therefore, satisfactorily ac count for, the preference of others who had no greater pretension' than 'themselves, but who had fortunately completed tire conditional period of service ; and the knowledge of this will from henceforth stimulate young Officers to aim at constant employment, instead of idling their time on shore.. Of the Mates,sinany have passed so long, and been so long neglected, that the news of their promotion will be a - welcome surprise. Of the eighty selected we perceive that the junior passed so Ling back as 1835. As respects the army, the only regret we feel on the present occasion is in the exclusion of the Majors of 1830, officers who, as stated in our Gazette of 30th Oc tober, .are all veterans, and have obtained their present rank b y sheer length qf service. The additional step would have cost the country nothing. The expenses of the Army Brevet will rather exceed 20,0001 We annex a list of officers, some of whom have already been removed, as shown by the 1,07 a-in Gazettes We this day publish, and the others are liable to be dis placed ; but nothing further than is contained in this day's paper, has beenfina/ktietermined upon. It is very probable that Lientenant-General Sir John Macdonnell will continue on the Staff in North America, Xajor-General Pasley will remain in his post at Chat- Ln Sir Charles Frederick Smith at Gibraltar.— Nara/ I;nd Military Gazette.

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 prsof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful 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 s s,rst not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to,sviiioi4leslt is heir.—Old E ng l a nd.

The act itselfwaSeitreardinary, and wanted that to which 1 lwy ers at tach commanding import anceprecedent. The manner in which it Was done is' commented upon as partaking triad tef temper than of dignity, and as therefore etdetiluted rather to diminishf respect fbr the Court than to reprove with effect the abseiite of Counsel, or to promote the public inte-.. rests ; ltsi, seeming a more regular attendance of the Ire -There can be no question that the absence of Counsel fvern the Court, when the case is.

The suaviier . MAI' has seldOM been foOnd blended With the tor Wer in re more happily ditin in the conduct of this exalted judicial functionary ilbsnpresiding in the Court of which he is no let the . orn ament than the oracle.' Conceding to Lord Denman this un constrained testimony of well-earned commenda7_ tion, we the mar deeply regret the absence of • his usual consideration, Mid • the. momentary sus pension of his proverbial einttnimity, in the pro ceeding to which we have alluded. The reason as signed by his LortiAlp for this proceeding Wan, the think, insufficient to Pair? . the ottraordinary step. If " the time of the Courtg ofJustice be the pro perty of the public," as his Lordshipob'servedwb en animadverting on the absence of ecAiiigei front their posts, then the public functionariegy preside as Judges in those Courts, and ar:. paid by the public for their presence and scrvict:.:' , should not be too prone to consult their personal convenience when the public interests call for its occasional sacrifice. A very short retirement by the Judges from the Bench to the adjoining chamber would have enabled the attorneys to have gone or sent for the Counsel they had re tained, and thus have obtained their presence. STANDARD.—Lord John Russell has writ ten to certain persons at Plymouth, in reply to an address of condolence. There is not much in the letter, but the following sententious apology tbr the abortive budget, justifies a remark : • "They attempted, above all, to subject the ad- Mission of foreign corn to a known and moderate duty, in place of a scale so curiously adjusted, that it baulks the farmer at one moment and starves the people at another, while it defrauds the revenue at all times." _ _ Allowing for monstrous exaggeration, Lord John's view of the Corn-laws has some founda tion. These lawS, though they do not "baulk the farmer" as is proved by the rapid advance of agriculture, or starve the people, as we see by wheat at 61s. the quarter, after four successive bad harvests, certainly do temper prices, so )as to prevent desperate speculations in agriculture, and to control, though they cannot prevent, desperate speculations in commerce. Thus' they certainly __an support prices at • one time, and reduce them at another, so as to keep a steady supply ; but what does Lord John mean by. -"defrauding the revenue at all times ?" the phrase with which he completes his triad. Poes his Lordship maintain that food is natu rally a proper object of taxation, or that corn can be justifiably taxed at any time, except with the view of rendering justice to all classes of the people—a constaut supply? Lord John must either mean this, or he writes non sense. Where there is no right there can be no wrong, and a fraud upon the revenue can be committed only upon the hypothesis that a revenue is due. But is a revenue due from the food of the people ? Perhaps the Morning Chro nicle, or some Corn-law lecturer, will answer us. Lord John says that the Ministers who have suc ceeded to him and his colleagues have an easy task; and an easy task no doubt they would have, if, like the Whig Cabinet, they had no care ex cept to keep their places; for few will propose to dismiss Sir R. Peel's Cabinet, in order to bring back their predecessors. But with a war in China, a war in Central Asia, jealousies in America and on the Continent, a repeal sedition in Ireland, and an anti-Corn-law sedition in England, a deficient harvest, and a revenue minus the necessary expenditure, Sir Robert Peel has certainly inherited no "bed of roses;" but still there is no cause for desponding when Sir Robert Peel is Prime Minister. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TIMES.—The failure of Messrs. Hector and Co., bankers, of Petersfield, was announced on Saturday in the City. The concern is but a small one,' and the lia bilities are not supposed to exceed 30,0001. There are hopes that the bank is solvent, but the London agents declined to make advances upon freehold securities. Mr. Hector, one of the firm, was lately Member of Parlia ment for the place. It may be observed that the failure has scarcely created any sensation whatever in the City. The unfortunate military claimants upon Portugal, while complaining of their miserable .condition, add se veral animadversions on the regulations which have al ready been adopted by the Commission. It seems, that upon seeking information from this Commission, a series j of what are called "general rules" is placed in their hands,. and that they find them se , :vague and indefinite that it is difficult to decide what construction is to be placed upon them. Another point, of which greater complaint is made , is, that on a claimant attending the Commission, a debtor and creditor statement is laid be fore him, made out in the Portuguese language, with the amounts expressed in Portuguese currency, so that he is unable to ascertain the particulars of the adjudica tion. Altogether there seems to be nothing but difficulty in every shape in the way of these ill-used men. • CHRONICLE.—A sale by the Bank broker of 42,000 Consols for Bank notes depressed the market at one period of the day * per cent. This sale is supposed to form part of 1,700,0001. short subscribed of the 5,000,0001. loan on funding, which deficiency the Chancellor of the Exchequer must now obtain on stock or otherwise, from time to time, as the market can afford the pressure. Such is the result of the famous financial; mea sure which Mr. Goulburn declared to have met with success beyond his most sanguinary 4 pect ations. lle even went so far as to assert that lic had obtOned 1,000,000/ beyond what he asked.

Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for the expression of opinion upon the merits of a medical work, this remark is open to exception in any instance where the public, and not the isolated and exclusive members of the prefession, are the parties addressed. Upon that which is directed to men indifcriminately, the world will form itsnwn opinion, anti will demand that medical works for public study should be devoid of that Mysterious technicality in which the sc►ence of medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance. The work before us treats of subjects we believe generally, yet very strangely, neglected by the medical attendant, and requiring doubtlessly (as in operative midwifery and the surgery of the eye) an entire devotedners to a deeply important branch of study. The tone of this book is highly moral, and it abounds in well-written, harrowing, yet correct displays of the suffering consequent upon unbridled sensualinn. No human being can be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a warning beacon, a wed-told appeal to reason, a permanent blessing. It is written in a clear, intelligent style, and is evt dently the production of a mind long and practically conver sant with the diseases of the most delicate division of the human organization. The security of Happiness in the Marriage State is the chief anxiety of all; but many dread entering upon the wedded union, through a secret fear of unfitness for the discharge of matrimonial obligations. This essay is most particularly ad dre .sed to all suffering under a despondency of the character alluded to ; and advice will be found calculated to cheer the drooping heart, and point the way to renovated health.

The first intention was to limit the Army Brevet and Naval promotion to a very small amount, the state of the revenue being pleaded for making the most rigid economy Imperative ; and we can state with confidence, th a t the first programme did not include more tha n half of what has been at last conceded to the earnest remonstrances tpf the heads of the Army and Navy departments. We have always contended that such fleeting and ever t'arying circumstances as a rise or fall of the revenue, Principally depending on the state of trade or other con tingent causes, should not be permitted to weigh in the scale of justice against the claims of old and meritorious officers at a season of public jubilee, but particularly on such an occasion as the present, that seldom occurs more than once in a generation, and which it has always been usual to commemorate by an extensive Brevet and pro motion. Whether with these, or such-like arguments on behalf of the Navy, Lord liaddington combated the formidable objections of the Finance Minister until he I finally overcam e them, we know not ; but this is certain, ' that his Lordship has succeeded in obtaining for the DONATIGN of QUEEN 'DOWAGER.

" I have the honour to be, my Lord, " Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant, " WILLIAM ASHLEY." His Lordship, upon receiving the communication, said he had no doubt that the example and the wishes of so noble-minded and exalted a personage wculd produce a great effect upon the higher classes of societ):. who could know but little of the miseries which such bo;lnty was 'sure to alleviate.

Of the few Derby favourites mentioned in the course of the afternoon, the Lord of Holderness and Ballin keele alone were backed with any spirit ; 25 to 1 was laid twice against the first, and several parties were anxious to invest upon the same terms, but the general offers fell five points short ; against Ballinkeele the odds quoted below were laid to about 3001., the betters and takers being very fairly balanched. If we except a dis position to back William de Fortibus, there vas no other change. For the Oaks, Passion was again in force at 7 to 1, taken eagerly; 1,200 to 100 was also taken, " bar one," but the name of the filly was kept a profound secret ; offers to take 30 to 1 each about the Duke of Rutland's Bizare filly and Mr. Thornhill's Eusebia.

The preparations will be upon a scale of elegance and splendour worthy pf the occasion. The entertainment to be given by the Lord Mayor at the Mansion-house to Prince Albert will be the first grand entertainment of the Mayoralty of Alder man Pirie, the first day of which Mayoralty has been dis tinguished by the birth of the Heir Apparent to the Crown. The following brief extracts from the Corporation Re cords have reference to the two occasions on which a si milar ceremony was performed by Royal personages : " 1667.—8 e it remembered that the King's Majesty King Charles 2d came to the Royal Exchange on the 23d October, anno 1667, and there fixed the first pillar thereof, which is that standing in the west side of the north en trance. lie was entertained by the City and Company with a chine of beef, grand dish of fowl, gammons of bacon, dried tongues, anchovies, caviare, &c., and plenty of several sorts of wine. He gave 201. in gold to the workmen. The entertainment was in a shedd, built and adorned on purpose in the Scottish Walk. " 1570.—1 n the year a thousand five hundred and seventie, on the 23d of Januarii, the Queen's Majestie. attended with her Nobilitie, came from her house in the Strande, called Summerset House, and entered the Citie by Temple Bar, through Fleete-street, Chepe, and so by the north side of the Bourse jto Sir Thomas Gresham's, in Bishopsgate, where she dined. After dinner her Ma jesty, returning through Cornhill, entered the Bourse on the south side end, after that she had viewed every part thereof above the ground, especially the Pawne, which was richly furnished with all sortes of the first wares in the Citie, she caused the time Bourse by an Herald and a trompet to be proclaimed the Royal Exchange, and so to be called from thenceforth and not otherwise."
