Hence the necessity for the publication of a timely safeguard, a silent yet friendly monitor, or, where debi lity has made threatening inroads, the means of escape and the certainty of restoration. The evils to which this book adverts are extensive and identical in their secret and hidden origin, and there are none to whom, as Parents, Guardians, Heads of Families, and especially of public Schools, is confided the care of youn g people, who ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and those salutary cautions this work is in tended to convey. Not only are the most delicate forms of generative debility neglected by the family physician, but they require for their safe management the exclusive study of a life entirely abstracted from the routine of general practice, and (as in other departments of the profession) attentively concen trated in the daily and long-continued observation requisite for the correct treatment of sexual infirmities. The principles upon which the business of this office is con ducted, is to afford temporary Loans to persons assuring their lives with the Company, upon terms calculated with reference to the amount of the Assurance effected, and the nature of the security offered for their repayment. This mode of employing the capital of the Association, is the adoption of means for augmentinr , the number of lives assured, and of greatly in creasing the profits beyond those of a Life Assurance Company only. And this will be found one of the most valuable prin ciples of Assurance, on account of its capability of being ap plied immediately and permanently to the benefit of the As sured himself, whilst living, as well as to others after decease. Individuals possessing real or personal property, Officers in the Army or Navy, Clergymen, Professional men, Merchants, Tradesmen, and persons of respectability and character, may, if assured with this Association, obtain advances for periods very ing from Three Months to any other agreed period, is amounts of 501. and upwards, upon either real or personal security, to be approved of by the Directors, including the security of Policies effected by parties with this Association, according to their value at the time of the Loan. The Directors are persuaded that by combining confidence with caution, and carrying fairly and liberally into effect this comprehensive system of Loan in connexion with Life Assur ance, they will not only consult the permanent prosperity of the Association, but at the same time render the Institution signally beneficial to the great mass of the community.

The effects of liCentious, indiscriminate and secret indulgence in certain practices, are described with an accuracy and force which display at once profound reflec tion and extensive practical experience." , —Planet. " The best of all Friends is the Professional Friend: and in no shape can he be consulted with greater safety and secrecy than in " Lucas on Manly Vigour." The initiation into vicious indulgence—its progress—its results in both sexes, are given with faithful, but alas I for human nature, with afflicting truth. However, the Authors have not exposed the evil with out affording a remedy. It shows how " Manly Vigour" temporarilyimpaired, and mental and physical emasculation, produced by uncontrolled indulgence of the passions, can be restored ; how the sufferer, who has pined in anguish from the consequences of early indiscretion—afraid almost to encounter his fellow man, can regain the vigour of health and moral courage. The work is written in a concise and perspicuous style, displaying how often fond parents are deceived by the outward physical appearance of their youthful offspring ; how the attenuation of the frame, palpitation of the heart, derange ment of the nervous system, cough, indigestion, and a train of symptoms indicative of consumption or general decay, are often ascribed to wrong causes ; and instead of being the natural re sults of congenital debility or disease, are the consequences of an alluring and pernicious practice, alike destructive to the mind and body.' —New Bell's Weekly Messenger. " 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 profession, are the parties addressed. Upon that which is directed to men indiscriminately, the world will form its own opinion, and will demand that medical works for public study should be devoid of that mysterious technicality in which the science 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 Cas in operative midwifery and the surgery of the eye) an enure dcvotedne,s to a deecly important branch of study. The tone of this book is high y moral, and it abounds in wellwritten, harrowing, yet correct displays of the suffering consequent upon unbridled sensualism. No human being can be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a warning beacon, a well-told appeal to reason, a permanent blessing. It is written in a clear, intelligent style, and is evi dently the production of a mind long and practically conver sant with the diseases of the most delicate division of the human organization,"—Magnet , 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 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 distresshs effects of certain depraved habits; fully establish their claim tai 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 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 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 lieir.—Old England. Messrs. 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 td all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able.—Magnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series 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 strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some, nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita • tion in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set down by the every-day observer as the result of common causes, sutii as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe rature, hereditary taint, Scc., is truly convincing and extre mely satisfactory. We say " satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs. Curtis have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmonary Consumption Epilepsy, &c., hitherto th e opprobria of medi cine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination as any other class of ffections. We do not think we go too far in saying that society is deeply indebted to the authors for producing so useful , so m uch wanted, so valuable, and so truly - moral a book.—Conserva tive Journa l. We recommend the work entitled " Manhood," &c., to the careful perusal of persons of all classes. The moral as well as physical advantages sure to result from such perusal, will be most readily recognised and felt by those who stand most in need of them.—Statesma n • Messrs.

A very numerously attended public meeting was held on Wednesday evening last at the Town Hall, according to a respectably-signed requisition, for the purpose of considering the propriety of memorialising her Majes ty's Government on the contemplated appointment of new Borough Magistrates, and praying the Legislature to take into consideration the whole present system of magisterial appointments, with the view of substituting for them Stipendiary Magistrates, to be paid by the State. It was evident that the greater number of those present. were averse to the proposal. Capt. SAUNDERS, RN., having been called to the chair, Mr. W. J. LITTLE said he felt great pleasure in ad dressing them now, as he should on another occasion a Jury composed of men who would go into the box having no bias either for the plaintiff or defendant-- either for the prosecutor or the prisoner. Any question connected with the administration of the law, and with the administration of justice, did indeed demand their serious consideration as much as a question that affected the rights of the public in general, the rights of any one branch of society, or the rightS of any particular person. The meeting was called to consider the propriety of me morialising her Majesty's Government, or rather peti tioning Parliament to deliberate on the expediency of appointing throughout the kingdom gentlemen with a competent knowledge of the law, as Stipendiary Magis trates. Before he proceeded further he wished them thoroughly to understand him, because he understood that some gentlemen had come to the meeting prejudiced against the motion before them, because, if Stipendiary Magistrates were appointed throughout the kingdom, and if they had one in this town, it would add to the heavy burdens they were exposed to, in the shape of taxes, and for that reason they were opposed to it ; but, before be concluded, he trusted that he should satisfy them that it would not entail on them any extra expense, while it would be the means of giving the people what they ought to . e.ele for and had a right to require, a purer administra tion of justice and of the law—(Hear)—throughout the kingdom. The present system was attended with certain evils, which he trusted would be removed by the mea suro.which he proposed to carry out. Magistrates were appointed now, in counties by the Lords Lieutenant, and in municipal boroughs like this it might perhaps be said by the Council, or it might .be contended, on the other hand, by the Government of the, time being. It was against these appointments that he then addressed them; he would contend that these appointments were not made as appointments of such vast importance ought to be, and his reason for saying so was this, that ebmpetence to fill the office was always lost sight of, legal competence was lost sight of, and the appointments were made pro and con, according to whether the Government exercised the power of appointing men of political opinions coinci ding with their own. In the appointment of Magistrates of counties they would find that wherever there was a Whig Lord Lieutenant, if he created Magistrates he gene rally culled them from gentlemen of his own political party. He need say no more than this, but simply ask them the question, was that the basis on which the fabric of justice ought to be built ? Was the simple fact of .a man being a Whig or a Tory, a qualification for a seat on the bench, whenit ought to be filled by men compe tent to discharge the duties of the office ? Magistrates were petty judges, and ought to have a knowledge of all questions argued before them. Gentlemen of his (Mr. L.'s) profession were in the habit of appearing be fore the Magistrates, and there were gentlemen of more eloquence than he pbssessed, who might make black ap pear white.— (Laughter and cheers:) There might be gentlemen of powers of speech so great as to make black appear white in the estimation of ignorant people (Laughter)—he would say then; were they, the public, t h e people, who were in the habit of having their right s ' and liberties tried before the Magistrates, were they to have those rights and liberties endangered by having them placed before those whose only qualification to fill the chair of Justice was their being Whigs or Tories? This had been carried out, though Lord Fortescue, Lord Mount Edgcumbe, and Sir William Trelawny, all men respected in private life, and wh o wou l d not have aPe pointed any man as a Magistrate who w as not respected in his private character, but he would ask them if this alone was sufficient to fit men to preside on the Bench? He would ask them whether the fox-hunting squire or the clergyman of the parish were qualified for Magis trates? Was the sportsman a competent person toile cide on questions arising from the game-laws? Or was the clergyman, whose duty it was to speak on topics of religion, a fit and proper person to sit in judgment on vice and immorality ? He thought they would agree with him that . a clergyman who properly discharged his duties--1e regretted . that there were many who did not, but a gentleman who filled the pulpit, and performed the duties of a church had enough to attend to, in supplying the spiritual wants of his congregation, and had no business to interfere in political meetings—(Cheers)—nor had any right to decide questions on the Bench. It had been said by Lord Brougham that by combining the office of Clergyman with that of Magistrate, two good offices were spoiled.—(Hear, hear.) If he devoted all his attention to one, he must neglect and probably spoil the other. He would now ask them to take into con sideration the appointments under the Municipal Act, and in doing so he would refer first to the appointments in this borough. When the Municipal Act came into operation he believed it was intimated that the Govern ment would appoint those gentlemen as Magistrates whose recommendations were sent up by the Town Council ; for the majority of the Magistrates he believed that such a recommendation was sent up, and certain gentlemen were appointed. But after those appoint ments, by an act of the late Government, two gentle-. men were, to use the language of the Conservative, " pitchforked" into the Magistracy. If there was one act of the late Government which Whigs ought to frown at more than another, he thought it was this one, that of "pitchforking" on the Bench (he quoted that term from the Conservative) two gentlemen not in the original recommendation from the Town Council. Ought they to see the temple of justice thus desecrated to political purposes ?—(Loud cheers)—he was sure there was - not an honest man before him who would not agree with him that this act was a blot on the conduct of the late Government.—(Cheers.) It was a bad pre cedent that had been in ttoduced by the late Government. —(Hear ' hear.) It had, however, been copied by the present Government at Bristol, Worcester, and many other boroughs ; and because in those places the Whigs had gained a political ascendancy, six, or eight. or ten Tory Magistrates were now to be nominated. These were all evils connected with the present system, and those evils ought to be remedied.—(Hear, hear, and cheers,) The gentleman who filled the chair, (and it was with great pleasure he had heard him named, and he should bow with respect to him in private life), might possibly be one of those who was intended to be placed on the Bench, and if co, lie begged to say to him that it was not his wish, nor did he, come there to make this a party question, nor to make a personal attack against him or the gentleman (he alluded to Mr. Rees) who sat on his left.—(Hear, and cheers.) The object to which he would direct their attention was this : the Magistrates were petty judges, and he could prove from his own ex perience of five years—and when he gave them his word that it was truth he told them he trusted that every man present would believe him—his own ex perience would go to prove the fact that the present men were incompetent to fill the offices they held, or at least that they had not that legal know ledge which he trusted they would agree with him in saying was necessary ; Magistrates ought not to be appointed because they were partisans of the powers that be ; they ought only to be appointed from their knowledge of the law, and their power of being able to give their decisions unbiased and unprejudiced, and with out any local attachments on the questions that were so often argued before them.—(Cheers.) He had just told them that he was prepared to show them from the result of his own experience that the gentlemen who filled the Bench were incompetent to discharge the duties of the Magisterial office. A few months ago he himself had a case of a poor woman, the wife of an artisan in this dock yard, which was brought before the Magistrates of this borough ; she was charged with stealing a cotton gown. He had attended as the advocate in that case, he was not often in the habit of doing so for prisoners, but he did so in this case. conscientiously believed she was inno cent, and he therefore entered with more than ordi nary spirit into the merits of the case. She solemnly assured him that she had not stolen the pro perty, and. he was strongly induced to take the Matter up, and he did so. The whole evidence against the poor woman was this: the prosecutor lived in Cornwall street, and the prisoner lived in King-street; the gown was seen by a child of the prosecutor in the hand of the prisoner on the afternoon of the arrival of Mr. Dawson in the borough, when, as they were aware, the streets of the town were crowded to a great.extent. She was seen in King-street, at five o'clock in the afternoon, with that gown in her hand, or part of it ; the child who was pass ing identified the property and went home and told her •father. Her father obtained a warrant or a SIIIIII/1011s, and he (Mr. Little) attended for this poor woman, the defendant, before the bench of Magistrates. It was ra ther singular that Mr. Abbott and Mr. Somerville were the Magistrates on that occasion, and upon the simple evidence of the two prosecutor's children, one of whom swore to her own work in the gown, and the other to her sister's work, this poor woman, although he contended that there was not a tittle of evidence on which a Jury would convict the prisoner, and although he was prepared to account for the possession of the property, was com mitted, and sent to take her trial at Exeter.—(A voice ' " Where was Mr. Bone ?") Mr. Bone was not there, but his clerk, Mr. Gedye was, and was not that another evil of the existing system?—(Hear.) When he addressed the Bench, he told them be was prepared to prove by the evidence of a person who lived in the same house as the prisoner that the frock had been worn long before the prosecutor missed it, and he was prepared to prove that it had been bought two years before the period of the prosecution, at Plymouth, yet, would they believe it, the Benth told him that they would not hear any evidence on that point, and that if such evidence was produced on . the trial, the Jury would not find the woman guilty ; the woman was actually sent to take her trial at the County Sessions. When the Bench themselves allowed that if such evidence was produced the woman would not be found guilty, was the county to be saddled with the expense of prosecuting, and was the poor woman to be placed in the situation of a trembling prisoner, with her personal liberty put in jeopardy, because the Bench would not hear him ?—(Cheers.) He put a case to them thus :—Supposing a person was charged with an abominable offence, and he was prepared with evidence to prove an alibi, were they to tell him that they would not hear that evidence ?—(Con tinned cheers.) He put another case to them :—Sup posing a Banking House in the town were robbed, and the notes were traced to a merchant's establishment, would they refuse to hear the evidence of the clerks of that establishment, to prove that they were left there in a parcel ? Yet Mr. Somerville told him that if such a case were brought against himself (Mr. Little) he (Mr. Somerville) would commit him.—(Cheers and laughter.) But before he turned to another part of the subject, he should state the poor woman did go to Exeter, a brief was handed to Counsel, and she underwent her trial, and the result was that the Jury stopped the Earl of Devon in his summing up, said they were perfectly satisfied, and returned a verdict of not guilty.—(Cheers.) Yet by and bye his friends, perhaps, would tell him that there were no evils in the present system, and that justice was better administered by it. than if a Stipendary Ma gistrate were placed here. He was sure that there was not a person then present but must agree that they were incompetent ; it might be said, perhaps, that they were ill-advised, but it was the people, the public, the suitors who often had to appear at this tribunal, who were the parties that suffered from it. He felt that the subject was of vast importance ; some of them were tired of this discussion, and he was sorry that he had trespassed on their time so long, though from knowing the formidable opposition he had to encounter, he had felt it right to enter more into detail than he otherwise should have done. He only asked them for their calm reflection, and to give their honest votes on the subject. Mr. LITTLE then read the following petition TO THE HONOURABLE THE COMMONS OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND IN PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED. The humble Petition of the undersigned Inhabitants of the Borough of Devonport, in the County of Devon. Showeth—That your petitioners have witnessed with feelings of great concern the course that has been pursued by the late and presept ?oyerninent hi the app o i n t ment of Justices of the'Nace'' ñ various Municipal Towns, and h most earnestly but resPectfully*olleit the 'attenti on of the Legislature to the propriety of appointing District Sti pendiary Magistrates throughout EnglanAf competent l e gal knowledge, to be . paid" by the Stat e , as are t Judges of the superior Courts of Law. That your petitioners areindnced to dir ec t the serious attention of both HouseS of Paililinient to this important question, from the conviction that great andg ntrnant rowing , as in the evils exist under the present system, in the aPPoi of Justices of the Peace as well in Counties m unicipal Towns of England. Th at i t cannot be denied that in Counties (the appointment being almost abso lutely vested in the Lords Lieutenant), such appoint mentspaty with regard only to the part-, gentlemenv'hilt iwnevraerious are made too frequently political opinions of the in which so many as t en have recently been appointed under the Mamicipal Act, as many more, or nearly so, appointed towns titioners are unable to lea (for what reason your pc-, who now fills the rn), by the Right Hon. Baronet, important if for the Home Department o ice of Secretary of State That in the short in her Majesty's Government. cannot enter fully • limits of a petition , your petitioners might be urged into the various arguments which which exist against such apointments, or the evils under the resents ystem, but that your pe titioners with confidence submit that the Legislature. iin the solemn discharge hold it to . be right on theone of its duties, cannot hand, that the administration of justice should be entrusted to men w h o are not competent by education to understand the questions of law and juris prudence that are frequently discussed at Courts of Quar ter and Petty Sessions, nor on the other that the appoint ment of Justices of the Peace throughout the kingdom should be made subservient to political purposes. Your petitioners, therefore, most respectfully solicit an inquiry into the subject, and trust that the result will lead to the appointment throughout England, of gentle men of competent or legal knowledge as district Stipei.- diary Magistrates , to be pai d b y the State, and a pp ointed by such of i the Judges of the Superior Courts as it may be deemed advisable to invest with so important a power. Such (cont in ued . • • Air L) is the petition to the Houses of Parliament that I shall move to you, and it is upon the whole merits of the - question that I ask you to give your votes, if votes are to be called for. That evils do exist is undoubted, and those evils ought to be reformed. But you may ask me, how are 'they to be reformed ? My answer to that queition is brief; for I will answer it by putting another—who is it that suffers by the present system ? It is yourselves, it is the people who have cause to complain. The power of King, Lords, and Commons, says the eloquent Junius, is not an arbitrary rower; they are the trustees of the State, not the owners; the fee simple of the State is vested in the people. It is you who have cause to complain ; .it is for you to adopt the legitimate means for reforming the evils I speak of ; and if you ask me how that is to be done, I will tell you it is by respectfully petitioning the Houses of Parliament to take into consideration those existing evils, in such a form as I taust is embodied in the petition. It is by such means that our ancestors removed those evils, the very existence of which, if they had not been depicted on the page of history, they, at the present would have doubted; it is by such a course we arrived at the second Magna Charta of our liberties, the Reform Bill ; it is by such a course that the foul blot of negro slavery was wiped out, it is by such a course we made the negro free.—(Cheers.) Mr. T. HAWKER seconded the resolution for adopting the petition. In so doing he would ask the Chairman if, in the henourable profession to which he belonged, there was ever an appointment made without the person pass ing proper examinations, and being a regular bred sea man ? Why, then should it not be so in the profession of the law ? Was there any professional man but must go through a regular course of training to fit him for that profession ? Mr. RYDER immediately moved an amendment to the effect, that the motion before the meeting was unneces sary and utterly uncalled for, as it would entail a heavy expense on the boroughs to which a Stipendiary Magis trate might be appointed. If a paid Magistrate were to be appointed he would be appointed by precisely the same person as the present ones were appointed ; therefore there was no seeurity for the appointment not being made a political one ; in fact it was more likely to be so, it being an office with emoluments attached to it. In Ireland these appointments had been made politi cal. The petition was foreign to the call of the meeting, which was convened to memorialise her Majesty's Go vernment, not a word had been said about a memorial, but a petition to both Houses of Parliament was pro posed. The proper time to have called the pre sent meeting was when the " foul blot" was committed by the late Government and not now.—(Hear, hear.) He had said that it would not be attended with any increase of - expense, but he had not proved it by a single word. He read the 96th clause of the Municipal Act to prove that the Government could not legally appoint a Stipendiary Magistrate to any borough, as the application for such an officer mast come from the Town Council, who alone had the power of fixing the amount of his salary ; even in case of the death of a Magistrate, so jealous had the law been, that no appointment could be made till a second application had been forwarded. There were no means of paying him but directly from the borough-rate, as there were no possible means .of interfering with the fees of the Magistrates' Clerk, except by a special arrangement with him, or by his taking the office on condition of giving up his fees and receiving a fixed salary instead. Even the amount of the fees, if it could be obtained, would not be sufficient for the purpose, as he must be a very . poor barrister indeed if he did not make by his profession a larger sum . than this or any other borough would be likely to give. He pointed out the difference between a permanent Magistrate and a Recorder who only sat four times a year, and dissented from the opinion that lawyers make the best Judges. What Mr. Little had himself said was sufficient to prove it. He should be ashamed to belong to a profession that could purposely make " black appear white." He defended the appointment of the two gentlemen who were styled the " pitch forked" Magistrates, as they were only thrown out of the recommendation by party trick and party spite, and he thought the Government had exercised a salutary power in appointing them. He considered that Magistrates sat as jurymen, to judge right from wrong ; and he be lieved any honest man, with the power of discrimination, could tell right from wrong. The mover had alluded to a case of his own ; but he thought it was not for him to come there and impugn the decision of the Bench : if the Magistrates had acted illegally, it was his duty to have prosecuted them. Cases were as often lost from the want of tact on the part of the advocate as from incompetence in the Magistrates, and the fact of the Grand Jury having found a true bill in the case, was sufficient to exonerate the Magistr a t es f rom th e charge of incompe tence. In that case a lawyer attended as clerk, and a lawyer on the Bench was as likely to err, as the clerk. Had the paid Magistrates at Bow-street and other offices, never given wrong decisions which had been ap pealed against ? The motion was unnecessary and un called for, the charge would entail a heavy expense on the borough, and lie h o p e d t h ere f ore that the m e eting would in no degree entertain it. Mr. J. BEER seconded the amendment in a speech of immense length. Ile remarked on the time chosen to bring the petition fore ard, and on no one having been found to second it but two lawyers. He corrected the mover as to the appointment of County Magistrates, which laid ultimately with the Lord Chancellor, and contended that it was neither becoming nor proper that a Stipendiary Magistrate should be appointed in such a borough as this. He challenged a comparison between the manner in which the public business was conducted when the County Magistrates acted in the borough, and the way in which it was conducted at the present time. lle condemned the principle of political appointments as totally bad ; but as it was impossible to appoint. Magistrates without political feelings, all he asked was, that political preponderance should be done away; ought they all to be of one opinion ?—(Hear.) He objected to.the expense, observing that in Plymouth where the borough had large resources, they were al ready complaining of the expense of the Recorder's salary of 2001. a year. If a Recorder, who only sat on an average twelve times in a year received 2001. a year, what would be required for a barrister who should be required to give up all his time, and to renounce all his fees ?—(A Voice—" 8001. a year 1") Some one fixed it at 'Sea a aa. ar, but be had rated it considerably below the mark ; they would never get a barrister of any standing for any such sum. The barrister, too, would be as ranch liable to political bias as the Ma gistrates. lie acquitted the Magistrates here of ever having acted politically on the Bench, but in Ire land the office of Stipendiary Magistrate had been prostituted to political purposes. He would agree to their appointing a good Whig and a good Tory, and paying the salaries of both.—(Laughte r .) He alluded to the return of the fees of the Magistrates' Clerk having been refused to the order of the Town Council ; they were therefore in the dark as to the amount, but if he could prove that they were as much as 1,5001. or 1,6001. a year, he would certainly get rid of one argument on the score of expense. Ile seconded the amendment. Mr. Axeonn stated that he was quite satisfied that party spirit had nothing to do with the present motion. He did not think a great knowledge of the lan-necessary for the right administration of justice ; it might be done by any man determined to be honest. It should be proved that in the recommendation to Lord John Russell it was specified who were Whigs. Mr. FOSTER stated that it was done. Mr. AxeoeD thought in that case the Councillors were unworthy of the office they filled ; Lord John Russell had only acted on the recommendation of the Council. Mr. REES spoke against the motion. Mr. LITTLE replied on the motion, stating that he had very little to answer, for he would ask them whether they had heard one honest reason why they should net give him their votes on this occasion ? The gentlemen had drawn their attention as much as possible to the argu ment of expense, in order to entrap as many votes as they could ; they had used not the argumentum ad hominem, but the argument addressed exclusively to their pockets, as if they valued not their liberties or their rights so much as they did their purses. The answer to the objection as to the appointment of the Stipendiary Magistrate, and the question of expense, was contained in the petition, which he was sorry the mover of the amendment had not seen, nor did the swonder seem to have read it. Mr. L. then read the extracts from the petition, praying that the Magistrates should be paid by the State, and appointed by such of the Judges of the superior Courts as the Legislature might think fit to name. He should not have been silly enough to ask them for their votes for a plan that would add to their expenditure, but it was an important consideration that the Magistrates were petty judges of points of law, and ought not to be c ompe l led to look always at the desk be neath them for as sistance.--(Cheers.) The great ques tion was, wer e th ere evils or not, and could they be re medied? The CHAIRMAN then put the amendment to the meet ing, and it was carried by an overwhelming majority. A vote of thanks was-moved to the Chairman, second ed by Mr. Little and carried unanimously, and the meet ing brok e up. , the meeting, advocating an unpopular subject, attentionb jce4 manded, throughout h his address, M r of Little t the Orn meeting, and was repeatedly cheered even by those who Toted against him.

CHRISTMAS CAROLS.--Christrnas carols are still sung in Ireland. In Scotland, where no Church feasts have been kept since the days of John Knox, the custom is unknown. In Wales it is s till preserved to a greater extent than in England. A t the former period the Welsh had carols adapted to most of the ecclesiastical festivals, and the four seasons of the year ; but at this time they are limited to Christmas. After the turn of midnight, on Christmas-eve, service is performed in the churches by the singing of carols to the harp. While the Christmas holidays continue, they are sung in like manner in the houses. CHRISTMAS PRESENT. Just published in a large volume, feap.
