This series of attractive and useful works, by approved authors, was designed to furnish the Llighest Literature of the day, at the lowest possible price, and was commenced in consequence of the Acts which had passed the British Parliament for the protection of Copy right, and the rights of British authors and publishers, by the entire exclusion both in Great Britain and her Colonies, of foreign pirated editions; and the volumes have been issued itt a price which places them within the means not only of the Col 4nists, but also of the less wealthy classes at home, who thus benefited by the widening of the market for our literature.

X B T y ON w . , By The HOME AND COLONIAL LIBRARY having thus been sustained during a period of Six years with unabated success, Mr. Murray, anxious to guard against the objection of overloading the subscribers with too large and cumbrous a series of books of one size, has decided on concluding the work with its thirty-seventh volume. He is thus enabled to offer to the public a compact and portable work, the bulk of which does not exceed the compass of a single shelf, or of one trunk, suited for all classes and all climates— of which the Interest, value, and popularity is not likely to be im paired by lapse of time. At the same time the large circulation of the HOME AND COLONIAL LIBRARY, and the continued demand for back num bers, convince him that there is an unabated desire on the part of the public for reading, at once cheat', popular, and instructive; he is therefore preparing speedily to put forth a " New Library," which though equally portable, shall be even more elegant in typography than the last, and shall surpass, or at least maintain, Its literary value and general attraction.

This was on account cf its curative qualities, being mold at that time in canis ters, within the reach of every poor family. But under this order of Government it is obliged to be stamped.

Tho day proved so unsuitable from the dense fog which prevailed, that the original in tention was departed from, as it would have been im possible to see at one time one-third of the number of the troops belonging to this fine corps at present at Woolwich. The Commandant consequently issued sub sequent instructions, and the troops were formed into four largo detachments and marched into the country for exercise. The Royal Horse Artillery, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Brereton, C. 8., proceeded out of the south-west gate across the common, passing the veterinary establishment, and down the Shooter's-bill road to Blackheath, returning through the village of Charlton to barracks.

They then went up the Shooter's hill-road, and down past the Cadets' barracks, entering the Royal Artillery barrack grounds at the south-east gate. The left battalion of Foot Artillery, circler the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Wright, with Captain Marriott's Field Battery company, with nine-pounder guns, the gunners dismounted, went out at the south west gate, and turning to the eastward passed the Cadets' barracks down the Shooter's-hill-road, and at the end of Myrtle-lane the Commandant took up his station and examined them as they marched past. The left battalion returned through Charlton, and entered the barracks by the north-west gate. The Light Field bat teries, under the comman I of Leutenant-Colonel Ander son, wen t out at the north-west gate, through Charlton, and returned up the Shooter's-hill-road to barracks. The Commandant was accompanied by Brigade-Major Bingham and Captain Ty Id, e, Deputy-Assistant-Quar termaster-General of Artillery, as ith other members of his staff.

A special meeting of ti guardians of this charity was held in the hall- e Scottish Hospital, yester day, James Matheson, Esq., M.P., in the chair. Amonirst the parties present were the Ri g ht H on . Fox Maule, i M.P.; Drs. Strickland, M.D., Stewart, M.D , and Cumming, D.D. ; Captain Lloyd, R.N. ; Captain Lamont, R.N.; Captain 11. H. Lindsay; Lieutenant Colquhoun, R.N.; Messrs. William Campbell, Samuel Lovegrove, John Craigmyle, Wil liam Smith, George Lindsay, William Brownley, James Morris, James Simpson, Stark, Hector Rose ; Rev. James Fisher, &c. The CHAIRMAN read a requisition for general business, when Mr. W. HAMILTON entered at length into the' financial state of the institution, showing a great dis crepancy between a printed financial report, drawn up by a committee of which he was chairman, and the financial statement produced. Dr. STEWART stated the following reasons which had induced him to sign the requisition fur a special meeting :-1. That no financial statement had been produced for 1848-49, in coniormity with a resolu tion passed at a general court of guardians. 2. That no report of the educational state of the institution, from the Government inspectors, had been laid before the court, although there were rumours that the education of the children has been neglected. 3. The reports that were widely circulated respecting flogging of girls. A long and desultory discussion 'ensued, several guardians rising to order, and others asserting that the points mooted were put for the consideration of the directors. At length, Captain LAMONT, R.N., one of the treasurers of the asylum, briefly adverted to a few of the many circumstances which, as he stated, had guided him in coming to the conclusion that corporal punishment ought to be abolished in public institutions. In his own profession he observed that those ships in which there was most flogging the discipline was worst. In charitable institutions he observed where corporal punishments were virtually, though not absolutely, abolished, the children appeared more cheerful and docile than in those schools in which such punishments are permitted. His own opinion and experience of the pernicious tendency of flogging in the navy was ably borne out by those entertained by General Sir Charles James Napier, in his work on " Military Law, and the Punishment of Flog ging ; " by David Stow, in his work on troral train , ing ; and in a report on the system and arrangements of "La Colonie Agricok," at Mettray, presented to the committee of the Philanthropic Society of London ; and also "La I?oquette," being the two great establishmeurs in France for the re claiming of juvenile offenders, which stated that " corporal punishment is utterly abolished." The moral results were shown, " that they have indeed ful filled the most sanguine expectations of the directors." They must be all aware that corporal punishment was resorted to in the Caledonian Asylum ; but he had no desire to enter into any discussion on the sub ject, unless it was pressed upon him. They had, how ever, no • guarantee that similar punishments might not be cruelly inflicted if power were delegated even to humane persons. In order to prevent a recurrence of such punishments he moved the resolution of which he had given notice, viz.: " That corporal punish meat be utterly abolished in the Caledonian Asylum from and after this 29th day of Nov., 1849 ; and that all officers and menial servants are hereby prohibited from inflicting corporal punishment on any of the children." Dr. STRICKLAND seconded the motion. He ob served that it was with great pleasure that he did so, especially as he represented the feelings of a nume rous body of intelligent persons in this country—and certainly of many ladies also—whose voice should be specially heard in a matter of this kind, amongst both of which classes of persons it was an opinion daily gaining ground that a resort to physical inflic tion in the training of youth was injurious to the minds of young persons ; arid in after life has fre quently a tendency to crush the better sentiments, and not seldom also to foster a spirit of despotism, which unhappily is too ready to spring up in the hearts of persons in all conditions of life. lie seconded the motion, upon the broad principle of promoting a love of justice among men, and of as sisting that glorious consummation when an appeal to the better feelings and to the judgments of young persons should be deemed preferable to a resort to physical suffering. The lion. Fox Matrix and Dr. CUMMING took a part in the discussion, after which The Cuataistaa; called for a show of hands, when the resolution was lost by a small majority. A vote of thanks having been passed to the Chair man, the meeting separated. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.-YESTERDAY.

THE 3D DRAGOON GUARDS.—AbOIIt five o'clock on Wednesday night last, ;two privates of the 3d Dragoon Guards (who had only the previous Monday arrived at Nottingham from Mansfield) went into the shop of Mr. Francis Allen, butcher, in a beastly state of intoxication, when one of them asked if he might light his pipe, which he was permitted to do ; he then asked Mr. Allen to give his comrade a pipe, in answer to which the soldier was toad he bad not got one. lle then de manded a quart of ale, and was again quietly told ho had come to the wrong place, to which the soldier replied, " Then give us the price of one." Mr. Allen persuaded them both in every possible way to go home quietly, but this they refused, and ono of them, sitting down on a c hair, asked his comrade for a piece of paper, threaten ing he would set the place on fire before he went away. After considerable trouble Mr. Allen got them out of his shop, when oneof them stru c k hi m a v i o l ent bl ow in the face, and his comrade seized him by the arm, but after a severe . struggle between them Mr. Allen suc ceeded in flooring both men. They got up and then walked away, threatening that they would serve all Not tingham out before they left. The same evening three privates belonging to the same regiment were also very much intoxicated in the Market-place, and as they were passing along Smithy-row one of them crossed over to the Long-row end struck a man named Bellamy, of Radford, without the slightest provocation, saying, " We will soon put you to rights now we have come to Nottingham." Mr. Allen appeared at the post-office on Thursday morning, and applied for a warrant against one of the men. LIBERAL SOIREE AT DERBY TO MESSRS.
