The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con lequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery In Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, auy other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of leaving hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled: It is absolutely necessary that all mon should know, that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without i ncur ring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties ma y be mitigated, bow the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functionte derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. The Author has for a series of years been engaged i n an extensiv e been t o o generally confided t o the eue of ignorant practice in the treatment of thes e delicate complaints, which have great injury on those who are induc e d t o plac , e u ni nt p o i rtu rics n , at w el h y o inflict faith in their pretensions.

I then pro ceeded to the barracks and Government stores within the town, which I destroyed, but did not set fire to them, as by so doing the whole town must have been burnt. This precaution was not destined to save Lovisa, for during the night an accidental fire occurred in a portion of the town where we had not been, and before morning the whole place was reduced to ashes.

Dundas, to the Secretary of the Admiralty, dated— puke of Wellington, Tolboukin Lighthouse, July 7, las. I cannot conclude this letter without calling the particular attention of their Lordships to tlw active exertions of Capt. Storey, of her Majesty's ship Harrier, which led a few days later to the destruction of a large amount of shipping, dis covered afterwards in another n,uoherage near Nystad, as de tailed in the enclosure to Captain Warden's report of the 2d instant. Harrier, off Little Wahas, Juno 24, 1855. Sir,—l have the honour to Inform you that the boats of this ship destroyed 47 ships belonging to the enemy, varying from 700 tons to 200 tons, on fjhe nights of the 23d and 24th instant. On the first night the ships destroyed were one mile from the town of Nystad, and about three miles from the ship, and we were enabled to bring one barque, the Victoria, of about 450 tons, off with us. ,- - - On the following morning :the steam was got up and we proceeded to sea to anchor the prize off Enskov Lighthouse. g At 5 p.m., however, we steamed towards the laud and an chored at aout 7.30 p.m., and 'at 8 p.m. the boats were again despatched. I think, sir, I am only doing common justice to the men when I state how pleased I was to see the zeal and perseve rance with which they worked for so many hours ; neither can I omit stating my belief that this arose in a mreat measure from the good example of the offieers, especially the senior Lieutenant, Mr. Annesley, from whom I have ever received the most active assistance. During the night and following day we discovered 42 ships, ho whole of which we either burned or scuttled. I have the greatest pleasure iu being able to state that these proceedings were so successfully carried out without any casualty. Owing to the distance we got away from the ship (10 or 11 miles) and the blowing weather, accompanied with rain, that came on during the morning, we were prevented from bring ing any vessel out with us. We did not get back to the ship until after 6 p.m. this afternoon, the men having been on their oars twenty-two hours. Having then, in two following nights and one day, de stroyed the whole of the Nystad shipping (probably upwards of 20,000 tons) I trust these proceedings will meet with your approval. I have, kc.

It is hereby notified that the Right Hon. the Earl of Clti rendon, K.G., her. Majesty's Piincipal Secretary . of State for Foreign Affairs, has received from the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty an official communication from Capt.

Dated on board her Britannic Majesty's ship Meander, off Archangel, this 11th Juno, 1855. (Signed) " THOMAS BAILLIE, " Captain and the Senior Officer of the White Sea Squadron." And it is hereby further notified that all measures autho rised by the laws of nations and the respective treaties be tween her Majesty and his Majesty the Emperor of the French, and the different neutral polrers, will be adopted and executed on behalf of her Majesty and of her ally, with re spect to all vessels which may attempt to violate the said blockade. [PRICE 4D. STAMPED SD. Russell, has already propitiated Mr. Roebuck by up setting the late Ministry, and has now propitiated fate by his own fall. The second is Lord Palmerston himself, and, as he really is the only one that pre sents eyen a prima facie case for the summary-proceed- Mr. Roebuck suggests we will give him a separate consideration. The question, then, as cleared and extricated by Mr. Roebuck himself, is simply this :—What has Lord Palmerston done, on the evidence and in the opinion of the Sebastopol Committee, to demand that he should be immediately ejected from the Government ? Being Home Secretary last year, he did not worry Lord Aber deen to _worry the Duke of Newcastle to do his work better. He did not ask for Cabinet meetings. He was not at his post constantly in the autumn, ostensibly making manufacturers consume their own smoke, really stirring up the Duke of Newcastle. What else did he fail in ?. Well, there was something else. He carried out the Militia Act rather slackly. But we very much doubt whether the British public will push things so far as to quarrel with Lord Palmerston for not meddling enough with the affairs of his chief and his cllleagues last year. The truth is, that he has long laboured under the reputation of being rather too meddlesome, and in this instance it will bd concluded that he would have been only too happy to meddle, if he might have been allowed. Nay, on further consideration, it will be remembered that Lord Palmerston was especially put into a quiet office, out of harm's way, sur rounded by a crowd of sanitary reformers, undertakers, gravediggers, manufacturers, select vestrymen, and other small metropolitan fry. As for the operation of the Militia Act, that, as it happens, has not come into question. But there, again, is another sore point in which the British public must consent to share the blame with their Minister. At the express wish of the people, declared in a most unequivocal manner, the Mi litia Act was made a less stringent measure than that proposed by the previous Government, and the late Go vernment came in by getting rid of the ballot. But, in sober truth, the Militia Act and its operation are not under review, and Mr. Roebuck has not mentioned it, except by a general charge, reflecting on all the Govern ments, Parliaments, and people we have had for twenty years, that we had not provided a reserve sufficient for the magnitude of the Crimean expedition, and the rapid drain of such a war. So there ends the case as regards tl• only man whom Mr. Roebuck himself would think at the same time worth punishing, and still up punished. - But if Time has thus defrauded justice at home, and left Mr. Roebuck looking about indignantly for the vic tim to be immolated in special honour of the Sebastopol Committee, that same awful power has made greater changes at the seat of war. There all is change. Mr. Roebuck himself is obliged to pronounce, not indeed an acquittal, but a eulogium on Lord Raglan. Yet, when it comes to plain matter of fact, if Lord Raglan is to be acquitted of the imperfectly prepared expedition, the want of transport, the defective arrangements for the carriage and care of the wounded and sick, and the want of a communication from the harbour to the camp, it is impossible to lay hold of any one man in this country, and say that he is more answerable for these things than the Commander•in-Chief on the spot. The offenders whom the indignation of the public has successively ar raigned, justly as we believe, have fled from our poor earthly tribunals, one after another, to that before which we must all one day tremble. We summon them into court, and the answer is, that they are no more. All things considered, then, we can not anticipate any other result of the question than that which Time itself, quicker than Parliamentary process, has already brought. The report of the Sebastopol Committee may still afford matter for discussion ; it will long continue to throw light on the official system of this country; and it ren ders the present Cabinet inexcusable if they do not avoid the errors and neglects of their predecessors. But it has ceased to be available for the furtherance of justice and the indictment of the offenders. They may profess to appeal to it, and to challenge a trial upon its contents; but they know that their appeal is safe enough, and that the past is now laid on the shelf.

Despatches, of which the following are copies or extracts, have been this day received from Rear-. Admiral the Hon. H. S. Dundas, Commander-in-Chief of her Majesty's ships and vessels in the Baltic. Duke of Wellington, Tolboukin Lighthouse, July 7, 1855. " The Magicienne returned this morning from Lovisa, and I annex a report which I have received from Captain Yelverton, of her Majesty's ship Arrogant, who has been again successful in destroying a well- constructed fort at Svartholm, in the entrance of the Bay .)f Lovisa, but their lordships will observe with regret, that, notwithstanding the humane desire of that officer, the town of Lovisa was un fortunately destroyed by fire, which occurred accidentally on the night following the visit of her Maje sty's ships. Captain Vansittart informs me that the authorities of the town have themselves admitted and explained the , accidental origin of the fire." Her Majesty's ship A rrogant, off Hogland, July 8, 1855. Sir,—l have the honour to inform you that I reached Lovisa on the afternoon of the 4th hate . at, and, anchored the vessels close to Fort Svartholm. The enemy must have had intelligenc e of our movements and quitted the fort on our approach, for they had been at work but a few days before unroofing th a barracks and taking away stores.

On the sth, I made a reconnaissance of the town of Lovisa, in the Ruby, accompanied by the boats of the Arrogant and Magicienne. A strong detachment of Cossacks made their appearance at one time, but they were dispersed by the fire from the boats, the rockets particl tlarly throwing them into great confusion.

Judicial vengeance, in the language of the poets, halts and lags, though it generally runs down its victim in the end. In the hands of man it almost as often miscarri as not ; in the hands of Heaven its path is circuitous, sometimes wholly inscrutable ; and all that we have to show axe a few moral laws, as we are pleased to call them, arid wonderful instances of Divine vengeance— wonderful,. because they are rare. If justice itself makes such poor work of it in its severest and most tangible form, and in the case of enormous crimes and palpable wrongs, we cannot expect more speed, more certainty and exactness, in the moral retribution to come upon faults of temper, errors of judgment, and the minor vices of carelessness, indolence, excessive confidence, and pre sumptior. We don't expect the time will ever come when man can devise nets of exactly the right meshes, and throw them so cleverly over the waters of political life as just to secure the offenders at the very nick of time, without damaging anybody else. They will go on escaping, breaking through, leaping over, or slipping under, just as they have always done. That is what Mr. Roebuck has still to learn. He presented himself as a judge in Israel, to detect, and to chastise the bad admi nistration of the war. 11l would it become us, who sup ported him throughout, and who gratefully recognised in him the dauntless aud indefatigable champion of our own battles, to say one word as to Mr. Roebuck's dis charge of his mission. There is only this to be added— that, with all the sail he could press, and all the steam he could put into his committee, he has only illustrated, for the millionth time, the tartiness and imperfection of all human justice. His whole speech comes to this : According to his own division of the Cabinet which undertook the war, the chief has already fallen, and is therefore removed from the reach of Parliamentary jus tice ; the like fate has overtaken the Secretary of War and the Secretary at War, and the First Lord of the Admiralty, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer ; in fact, all who had a hand in the affair. They have escaped Mr. Roebuck as criminals occasionally cheat the hang man, by being their own executioners. On Mr. Roe buck's own showing, the others aro most of them insig nificant, and, as it happened, too, had nothing to do with the war. There was one exception, and that is Lord John Russell. But justice has overtaken him at last, though all that Mr. Roebuck can say of him is that he did not stay in town in August and September, and take the responsibility of summon ing Cabinet meetings to overhaul the operations of the War Minister. But which of them does Mr. Roebuck want to nail to the barn-door ? Lord Aberdeen ? His lordship,as Mr. Roebuck himself admit , , did his best. The Duke of Newcastle ? Mr. Roebuck himself vo lunteers an apology. The Duke was plodding, consult ing, giving interviews, making calculations, and issuing orders all the autumn. Mr. Sidney Herbert? Here, again, Mr. Roebuck is not merely apologetic, but even kind. He commends not only the diligence of the criminal at the bar, but oven his humanity. Sir James Graham ? But how could the Admiralty have f a iled, when it did not even attempt ? Mr. Gladstone ? But he was summing up the " tottle of the whole," and expecting to conquer all the Russian, as well as con vert the South Sea Stock, out of the year's incorrw. For the rest Mr. Roebuck himself s a y s the y were in significant. What more could he sa y ? There are two offenders left. The first o f these, Lord Johnre THE NEWSPAPER STAMP ACT. (Prone the Times of this day.) The public will remember the peculiar advantages which were promised from the amendment of the News paper Stamp Law. Enterprise was to be relieved of its trammels, education was to be wondrously promoted, political knowledge was to find its way into every corner of the county, and popular ignorance was gradually to disappear. These desirable results were to be accom plished by a certain specific agency—viz., that of penny daily papers. Over this point no obscurity whatever ° was permitted to rest. The one thing which was wanted to insure the perfect freedom, perfect efficacy, and per fect utility of the press was an issue of daily papers at one penny each. It was for this that agitation was so tenaciously maintained. Nobody ventured to deny that the press of this country, as it stood, was more indepen dent, more serviceable, and more decorously conducted than that of any other country. Nobody asserted that either the metropolitan papers or the country papers could be called expensive articles at the current prices. What was said was, that a less expensive article was called for, and that the production of this commodity was prohibited by the compulsory stamp. Of course, it was obvious to remark that, as this stamp was only a penny, that alone need not keep the price of a newspaper at sd. If a penny or a halfpenny per copy would in reality suffice to remuneraie the pro ducers of a good journal, it was plain that the whole selling price, even including the stamp, need have been only 2d. or lid. The stamp could, at any rate, be only answerable for one penny out of the five. Here, how ever, it was replied that the manner in which the stamp operated no destructively was in preventing the circula tion of newspapers at the particular price of a penny, and no snore. This was the magical figure which was to work such wonders. To produce newspapers at 4d., 3d., or 2.1 d., was of no use ; in f ac t, th e thi ng h a d b een trid without success ; nothing would serve the real turn but newspapers at id. Any advance above this sum was fatal, nor was there much difference, for this matter, be tween 20. and sd. The key of the whole argument lay in the "penny,"—in that single, small, ever-pre sent, and easily-spared coin, which nobody would be grudge for his daily news. Well, the law was amended, the stamp was removed, and Mr. Milner Gibson, Mr. Cobden, and their inde fatigable friends were gratified with this enfranchise ment of the press. What has been the result ? 'To be sure, the new system has not been very long in opera tion, but the experience already acquired appears to have convinced the managers of at least one establishment of a very notable fact—to wit, that a penny daily paper such as the public look for, and the " tax-on-knowledge' people designed, can never be maintained with a proper remuneration to its producers. Such, at least, is the published conclusion of the Yorkshire Daily Express, a paper issued on the new system under circumstances un usually favourable. We should not have cared to assert or defend such commercial maxims on our own proper authority, but the fact is communicated to the world as the result of actual experiment with more than ordinary promise of success. It seems that the conductors of the Leeds Times, observing that Manchester and Liverpool were getting their " penny dailies" under the new system, resolved on giving their own district the benefit of a similar issue, and accordingly started the Leeds and Yorkshire Daily Express, price one penny. We have two or three numbers of this journal before us. It seems to be very respectably " got up ;" has its " latest intelligence," its " telegraphic," and so forth, and, as one of the articles in its leading columns appears in each of the numbers before us to be transcribed from our own pages, we presume we cannot well demur to the "ability" of the production. Never theless, on Monday morning last, the readers of this promising periodiCal were informed in the "first leader" that the proprietors had " determined to discontinue" the same. They had started, they inform us, with con siderable advantages. Owing to their already organised establishment they were enabled to keep down what, under other circumstances, would have been the ex penses of such'a concern by at least one-third ; they had the benefit of an existing connexion, and they produced a good article. The result, however, was, that their returns were only about one-half what they should have been to cover the bare expenses of production, and they have relinquished the attempt accordingly. By way of convincing those who might surmise that the trial was not a fair one, they offer to any person inclined to re peat the experiment any requisite assistance in making the trial for himself. Experience must prove whether the promoters of other similar enterprises are more fortunate or more skilful than the conductors of the Leeds and Yorkshire Daily Express. For ourselves, we can only repeat what we have fifty times remarked—that, as far as the idea of competition is concerned, we regard the matter with the most supreme indifference, and that the working of the new law does but confirm in all respects the views we entertained of the public taste and requirements. We have not suffered, nor are we likely to suffer, in a single particular ; but, as we know something of the expenses_ contingent on the production of a daily paper, and what the public is accustomed to look for a n paper, we could not but express otir disbelief in the news paper, assumptions on which the Manchester politicians w e have pro ceeded. In the expiring journal to which To make a the difficulties actually ex referred we find a very circumstantial description of penny paper pay it must h p a e v o r e_ ien a c corre sponding to the cheapness f proportionate work of dis- L e b a e r s conceivedngsin that circulation presumes a nvolv it e sed p i circulation ti conveyance obnut thisand tributiont Now,and distribution or the paper is, we are told, "nearly a a n s c that r charged y f agents. the c osto t f h o c o n o s n a v m l ey e the percentage allowed to agents is journals," while . ts • so that, while the return upon is also "within a fraction of the amount" usual in the case of more costly shee, diminished, the outgoings each issue is largelythese to be the ex perience,proclaimed, of cede and York perienee, candidly ;i respects a 2.e Daily stand Exp nearly ress. still. p e r 13 a ;) S s u i c t h 11 ;i i . a p y p t h e proprietors of a w e e k ly newspaper were n o t alto gether ill - pleased at est ablishing a case against the new class of competitors with which they were threatened ; but, on the other hand, it would be absurd to imagine that any such inducement would have tempted them to discard a second source of profit, if profit could be made. A few mouths more, however, will bring all this ques r • , - r.sr" SUNDAY BEER .13IL committee met again yesterday morning. T he first witness examined was Mr. Elliott, the Lam beth police magistrate. He said the conflicting deed. sions . of the magistrates had caused much inconvenience, and he • thought the Legislature ought at once to set the questio n at rest. With regard to closing the public houses at 6 o'clock on Sunday, Mr. Elliott observed that the longer public houses 1 tept open the greater were the inducements to drinking. He did not think 11 o'clock on Sunday too late for thss houses to keep open. Mr. A'Beckett, magistrate of Southwark, said he was a opinion that the operation of the Beer Act had beeza to reduce the number of drunken oases on Monday.?, but not on Tuesdays. He thought, ho wever, that its working was most inconvenient both as regarded the working and the middle classes. As to the publican, he was placed in a most awkward position, because the law compolled him to furnish refreshment, whilst he had no means of ascertaining who was and who was not a bona fide traveller. Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey, Commissioner of the City Police, expressed his disapprobation of all legis tive interference with the freedom of the people. If, thought the prevention of drunkenness required moral restraint ratlier than the interference of the law. Ae to resisting a man's thirst for drink by the interposition of au act of P.s.rliament it was out of the question. The next wi.`aess examined was Sir Robert Carden, a magistrate o ,r the City of London. He stated that he thought it coLltrary to common sense to suppose that an excursionist, c r, in other words, a person who went out of town for tte day, was a traveller within the meaning of the acCI. He had never been called upon, however, tb..,adjudithite upon the question involved in the act. The Chairman—l lielieve you belong to some Anti. something Society. (Laughter.) Sir R. Carden—l 3m connected with the Maine Liquor Law Society. He had come to his present opinion on the authority of Sir Astley, Cooper, who said that 50 per cent, of spiritil was alcohol ; and that a small quantity taken daily was a slow poison. The Chairman—Then do you believe John Bull dies young ? Sizß. Carden—The English are a drinking people. The Chairman—Are you aware that those nations to whom spirits are unknown are not so long 'Peed as European nations ? S - Ir R. Carden—That may depend upon the climate. The Chairman—You will find that the case in the South Sea Islands. Sir R. Carden—l am sure a man will never benefit by drinking spirits. Examination continued—He was aware of one thing, and that was that a greater portion of the criine, wicked ness, and disease in this country arose from dremkenness. The Chairman—No one doubts the effects of drunken ness ; we only differ from you as to the means of reme dying the evil. Examination continued—With regard to excursionist& he could not see what the greaAter portion of them wanted to do otherwise than go home after 10 o'clock on a Sunday night. The Chairman—Do you not think it reasonable tbta t a man, after sitting for three hours in a close carriage .on the railway—behind the engine perhaps—should require something to quench a natural thirst at the end of t4O journey. Sir R. Carden—Well, then, let him get a glass of water. (Laughter.) Examination continued—He was satisfied if the work ing classes were consulted, they would wish that public houses should be closed altogether on Sunday, so as to put the temptation out of their reach. By Sir J. Pakington—He believed between 50 and 60 millions per annum were spent by the working classes in intoxicating drink, which he regarded as a national evil. By the Chairman—He thought the disadvantages to the few, occasioned by the operation of the act, did not counterbalance the advantages which accrued from it to the million. He thought , legislation ought alwayl to have such a view. By Sir W. Jolliffe—He believed all Governments .tn• couraged the consumption of alcoholic drinks for the sake of the revenue they produced. The Chairman—lt has been over and over again stated that the comforts of the people had been cur tailed by this bill. Do you contradict it ? Sir R. Carden—l believe that the hours it enjoins have been generally beneficial. Examination continuedL-He believed the future well being of England depended upon proper public-house legislation. As far as he was concerned if the beer bill affected himself he should feel it to be no incon venience, though he thought perhaps in its operation it tended to generate an unjust feeling between the lower and wealthier classes. This concluded Sir R. Carden's evidence. At this stage of the proceedings the room was cleared for about half an hour. On the re-admission the public, Mr. Broughton, police magistrate, was called, and after answering a few questions, it being close upon four o'clock, The committee adjourned. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. Minute guns will be fired by the fleet and garrison at Portsmouth, and the flags on board and ashore hoisted half mast, on the arrival of the body of the late Field- Marshal Lord Raglan, hourly expected at Spithead.
