The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con , quences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, .'hich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man _ ed, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any Cher class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is •articularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of toeir physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded tl,e health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled; It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are ,rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without rcurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed lne heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties nay be mitigated, hew the sting of their bitterness may be removed, snd bow the evil and its consequences may he avoided, and above all, f flit there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional lerangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. nte Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive iraetice in the treatment of these delicate eompiaints, which have ryortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant emsirics, who inflict groat injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions. gRVOUS DEBILITY may Sc had, price 2s. of Messrs.

BANKRUPTCY OF MESSRS: DE LISLE; • JANVitiN, AND - DR LISLE; CITY REGISTI?ATION. The Revising Barrister (J. Y. 1 1 1‘Christie, Esq.) yes terday concluded the revision of the list of electors for the City of London, with the parishes of St. Dunstan and St. Bride, comprising the Inner and Middle Temple. His Honour said that the list for the Middle Temple was the worst which had come before him, being full of inaccuracies. Mr. Ledger said that under the act, the Temple being extra parochial, the duty devolved upon the overseers of the parish adjoining to make out the list, but in this case there was no rate-book to refer to, but merely the rent book, and the names were given by the collector, and therefore there could be no blame attached to the overseers. Mr. Sidney Smith said the treasurer refused to allow facilities for a perfect list to be made out, and, in fact, the only way would be to go from house to house and see every occupier. . - The Overseer said be had attempted this, and was almost given into custody for making the attempt, as the treasurer said they did not allow any person to apply for information but their own officers. His Honour said it was shameful to restrict the over seer from doing his duty. Mr. Smith raid that the overseer was entitled to go and make inquiries, and if the treasurer or any one else dared to give him into custody, he would be subject to an action. His Honour passed the list, and appended a note that the parish list was well ma le out, but that for the Mid dle Temple was the worst that had come before him, in consequence of the treasurer refusing to allow the over seer the opportunity of making out the list. Mr. Smith said that many gentlemen in the Temple complained of the list. There were 59 objections (by the Liberals), of which 54 were supported. WEST SURREY.—Archer Ryland, Eq., the revising barrister, held his court at the White Horse, Dorking, yesterday, to revise the lists of the parishes of Abinger, Capel, Dorking, Mickleham, Newdigate, Ockley, and Wootton. The reform majority on the day's revision was nine. The suspension was announced yesterday morning of Messrs. De Lisle, Janvrin, and De Lisle, foreign mer chants and bankers, with liabilities for 400,0001. The house was among the oldest and most respectable in London, and it is believed, apparently en better grounds than are usual on such occasions, that the liquidation will not prove disastrous. The circumstances under which the stoppage was resolved upon appear to har monise with the reputatioi for honour the house have uniformly enjoyed. It appears that they had a large balance at their bankers, as well as money at call in the hands of discount brekers and in other available quar ters, to the extent of about 100,0001. ; but that, being involved in large advances in Canada, which assumed a more serious complexion yesterday on the arrival of the American mail, they determined at Once to suspend, in stead of ri , king the property of their creditors by any uncertain attempt to sustain themselves. The amount in question will, therefore, be almo-t immediately avail able for a dividend, while, with regard to the general asset, the statement is that, with the exception of the securities from Canada, they are of a favourable decription, and will admit of a further considerable • sum being realised during the present year. Many years back the firm were largely engaged in trade with Buenos Ayres, but their business was of a general description, and latterly they had become connected with an extensive firm at Quebec, who were involved in the American panic of 1887, and who again found themselves in difficulties at the commence ment of the pressure in New York and Canada about two years ago. On that occasion their debt to De Lisle and Co. was enormously heavy, and was compromised upon conditions which have not been fulfilled. The amount now remaining due under the compromise, cou pled with freak advances which De Lisle and Co. were induced to make by delusive representations, is under stood to be equal to 200,0001. The prospects from this source are most likely very doubtful, and it is upon the other assets only that reliance must be placed. Of Messrs. De Lisle's liabilities of 400,0001. a portion is said to consist of acceptances for account of parties ulti mately responsible, and who will meet them at maturity. In tins way it is expected the total will be considerably reduced, and the prospects of the direct creditoriqro- , portionately improved. Messrs. De Lisle and Co. were also c innected with the trade of Guernsey and Jersey, and were the corres pondents of some of the principal banks in those islands —namely, the Guernsey Banking Company, the Guern sey Commercial Banking Company, the Jersey Commer cial Bank (Janvrin and Co.), and the Jersey Old Bank (Godfray, Sons, and Co.) Messrs. Hankey and Co., the London bankers, will interfere for all these institutions, and honour the draughts drawn by them on Messrs. De Lisle and Co. Annexed is the circular intimating the suspension : " 16, Devonshire-square, Oct. 3. " It is with feelings of deep regret that we have deemed it necessary this day suspend our payments. Large ad vances in Canada and disappointments in receiving remit tances have led to this painful determination, and we feel convinced that by taking this course we shall best protect the interests of our creditors. " We beg to assure those friends who have placed secu rities in our hands that they all remain intact, and are held at the disposal of the parties interested. " We shall request a meeting of our creditors in a few days, of which you will be duly informed, and, relying upon your sympathy and forbearance under these painful circumstances, " We aro, respectfully, your obedient humble servants, " DE LISLE, JANVEIN, AND DE LISLE." LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OC'IOBEIt 4 1855. Naval and Military Intelligence. The Russell, 60, screw steam-ship, Captain Francis Scott, arrived at the Nore from the Baltic on Tuesday evening. She left Sheerness yesterday morning for Ports mouth. Her Majesty's steam troopship Simoom, 18, Captain T. R. Sulivan, after having bad new boilers fitted, got up steam in the factory basin at Portsmouth dockyard yesterday and tried them, when they proved all satis factory. The Alban, 4 guns, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, Lieu tenant-Commander William E. Fisher, has bad her de fects repaired, and is under orders to leave Sheerness on particular service. Heligoland is her supposed desti nation. The Perseverance, 2, iron screw steam troop-ship, Commander Harris, left Sheerness yesterday at 3 p.m. for the Baltic. She takes in all—Russian prisoners, officers, women, and children-461 persons, with guard and crew 153—making a total of 614. All the Rus sian officers are considered as first-class passengers. They speak in the highest terms of their reception on board by Commander Harris, and the officers gene rally. The Lizard, 1, iron paddle-wheel steam-vessel (tender to the Waterloo), Lieutenant Thomas B. Christopher commander, is also under orders for Heligoland. Her Majesty's steam-transport Dee,. Master-Com mander Pullen, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday morn ing from the eastward with portions of the machinery for the great three-decker Marlborough, 131, which is progressing rapidly in the fitment of her motive power. Her Majesty's ship Aolus, Master Commander W. L. Browne, has struck lower yards and topmasts at Portsmouth , and made all snug for the winter, as it is not expected her services as shell magazine for the Baltic fleet will be required until next year. The steam-ship Rosamond, from Portsmouth, arrived at Plymouth on Sunday with 200 seamen, appointed to navigate the Hibernia, 10 1 1, to Malta. The Hibernia was appointed to go from Hamoaze into the Sound yes terday. The crew of the Dee is to be transferred to the steam-sloop Inflexible, which is to accompany the Hi bernia. Four mortar-vessels, the Sindbad, Redbreast, Rocket, and Beacon, having landed and stored their ordnance and dockyard gear and stores at Woolwich, were towed up to Deptford yesterday by the Monkey, to be laid up there.

Commander•in-chief in the East Indies at the capture of Chusan, &c., in 1841." DEATH OF ADMIRAL SIR SAMUEL PYM, K. 0.8. We regret to announce the death of this very distin guished flag officer, which occurred at the Royal Hotel, Southampton, on Tuesday, in the 85th year of his age. His death-bed was attended by his aged brother, the celebrated physician, Sir William Pym. The following account of his services is extracted from " O'Byrne's Naval Biography :"- "He entered the navy in June, 1788, as captain's ser vant, on board the Eurydice, Capt. Lumsdaine,.employed at first in the Channel, and next in the Mediterranean, where, and on the Irish and Jamaica stations, he served, from the summer of 1791 until November, 1793, in tha Zebra, Kingfisher, and Fly sloops, all commanded by CaP tain William Brown. He then joined thee Cambridge, 74, Captain Rich. Boger, guard-ship at Plymouth; and after cruising for about 12 months in the Channel and North Sea as midshipman and master's mate in the Ganges, 74, Capt. William Truscott, and Venus and Almene frigates, each under the orders of Captain Wm. Browne, was pro moted March 7, 1795, to the rank of lieutenant, and placed in the Martin, sloop, Captain Wm. Grenville Lobb. His succeeding appointmentavvere, as senior; Sept. 4, 1795, and May 7, 1798; to Le Babet, 20, Captains Lobb and Jemmett Mainwaring, Amiable, 32, Captain W. G. Lobb, both in the West Indies -Nov. 12, 1718, to the Ethalion, 35, Captains Geo. Countess, Jas. Young, and John Clarke Searle, under the last-mentioned of whom he was wrecked on the Penmark Rocks, Dec. 25, 1799-Feb. 12, 1800, to the Stag, 32, Captain Robt. Winthrop, which ship was also lost in Vigo Bay, Sept. 6, in the same year-and O c t. 25, 1800, to th Robust, 74, commanded in the Channel by his friend Captain Brown. In the spring of 1795, Mr. Pyre, then in Le Babet, witnessed the surrender of the Dutch colonies of Demerara, Essequibo, and Benice ; and on Jan. 16, 1798, having in the handsomest manner volun teered his services, he took command of two of her boats, went in pursuit of, and succeeded, with only one of them, in capturing La Desiree, French national vessel, of 6 guns and 146 men, after a desperate struggle, in which the Bri tish sustained a loss of 1 man killed, another drowned, and himself and all the remainder wounded, and the enemy of 49 killed, 8 drowned, and 15 wounded. Prior to the wreck of the Ethalion he assisted in that ship, under Captain Young, at the capture, Oct. 17, 1799, of the Spanish 36- gun frigate El Thetis, laden with specie to an enormous amount, his own share alone of which exceeded 5,0001. For the assistance he afforded his captain on the quarter deck, as well as for the indefatigable ,exertions in shifting the wounded masts and yards on board the Thetis, Mr. Pym was warmly recommended to the notice of Lord-Brid port, the commander-in-chief. He had previously, on June 10, commanded the boats of the Ethalion, and captured in them, after a fatiguing row, two brigs and five tartans, with wheat and sheep from liarcalcona, leeeed . dj o M a j orca. On leaving the Robust he was made commander, Fete 10, 1801, into the Swan, in which vessel he cruised fo: about six months on the Portimouth station. He acquired post rank April 29, 1802 ; and was subsequently appointed April 29, 1804, to the Mars, 74, employed at the blockade of Corunna ; June 29 ensuing, to the Atlas, 74, which ship, after serving in the Channel, North Sea, and South Ame rica, formed part of the force under Sir John Duckworth in the action off St. Domingo, Feb. 6, 1806, and was sub sequently stationed off Cadiz ; Oct. 13, 1808, to the Sirius, 36 ; Feb. 27, 1812, to the Hannibal, 74, off Cher bourg ; May 12 following, to the Niemen, 38, employed for three years on the home, Lisbon, Cape of Good Hope, North American and West India stations; an d J u l y 22 , 1830, to the Kent, 78, fitting for the Mediter ranean , w h ence he returned to England, and was paid off at the close of 1831. In the Syrius Capt. Pym assisted, under Commo dbre Rowley, at the capture of the town of St. Paul's, Ile de Bourbon, Sept. 21, 1809. On that occasion he stood in, anchored within half-musket shot of La Caroline, French frigate, two captured Indiamen, and a brig of war, and opened so heavy a fire that in twenty minutes the whole of them struck their colours. At the reduction of the Ile de Bourbon in July, 1810, Capt. Pym displayed his usual zeal and ability. He afterwards obtained possession of Ile de la Passe, the key to Grand Port, in the Isle of France; and re-captured, while cruising off Port Louis, the Wyndham, a British I miiamaq," recently taken by two French frigates, and a corvette, undpr the orders of M. Duperre. In Aug., 1810, as senior officer of a squadron, consisting, with his own, of the 36-gun frigates Nereide, phigenia, and Magi cienne, we find Capt. I'ym conducting a series of gallant, although, from circumstances he could not control, unsuc cessful operations, which, in an endeavour to capture the above-named enemy's vessels and rescue another Indiamen, terminated in the self-destruction of the Sirius and Magi cienne, the capture of the Nereide, and the surrender to a powerful French squadron of the Iphigenia. In consequence of this disaster, Capt. Pym remained in close captivity un til the reduction of the Mauritiee in the ensuing Decem ber. On his release he was tried by court-martial, and honourably acquitted.. Ja the Niemen Capt. Pym made prize, July 14, 1814, after a chase of 14 hours, of the Henry Gilder, American privateer, of 12 guns and 50 men. He was nominated a C.B. June 4, 1815, and a K.C.B. Oct. 25, 1839,; advanced to flag rank Jan. 10, 1837; and made a vice-admiral Feb. 12, 1847. From Dec. 16, 1841, until Dec., 1846, he filled the postlof admiral superintendent at Plymouth. In September and October, 1845, he had command of an experimental squadron, consisting of the St. Vincent, 120, Trafalgar, 120, Queen, 110, Rodney, 92, Albion, 90, Canopus, 84, and Vanguard, 80. " For his conduct in the action cff St. Domingo, Sir Samuel Pym was presented by the Admiralty with a gold medal." Sir Samuel received his seniority as flag officer an 1847, and was appointed to the good•service pension in 1851 ; and by his death another vacancy is placed at the disposal of the First Lord of the Admiralty. THE BRITISH AMBASSADOR AT CONSTANTINapLE. The Pays of Monday remarks that the real cir cumstances of the intervention attributed to Lord Stratford de Redcliffe are as yet but very imper fectly known, and that up to the present time the evidence adduced to fix the proceeding of M. Pi sani on Lord Stratford's shoulders is not by any means conclusive or satisfactory. If we recollect rightly, also, his lordship was absent in the Crimea when the incident alluded to took place, conse quently if there ever was a case in which the sound maxim of Audi alteram partem ought to be acted on, it is surely the one to which the Pays devotes its leading article. Our contemporary says :-- " Our private information enables us to confirm the exactitude of this incident. It is only too true that the British Ambassador endeavoured to exer cise a sort of moral restraint on the Sultan, in order to induce him to modify the choice which the sovereign authority has the exclusive right to make. It is true also that this unfortunate attempt has failed in presence of the ligitimate irritation and offended dignity of the Emperor. We are assured that the English Go vernment will formally disavow the conduct of its repre sentative ; perhaps even a more severe measure will be applied to his forgetfulness of propriety and diplomatic duties. We have already had occasion several times in this journal to notice the conduct of Lord Redcliffe. H e is the oldest of European diplomatists in Turkey ; he no doubt knows the East better than any one else, and the questions connected therewith ; but be entirely belongs to the-epoch now happily very distant, at which Con stantinople was a field of conflict of rival influences, and at which each ambassador endeavoured to obtain abso lute preponderance in the councils and over the decisions of the Porte. He has not yet cast off the old man ;he still believes himself in presence of the same rivalries ; he wishes still to reign as before ; he has not seen, or at least he seems not to have accepted, the fortunate revo lution which has taken place, and which has given to the Turkish Government all its independence. The last incident of this fatal diplomatic war, nail which nearly caused the ruin of Turkey, was the famous embassy of Prince Menscbikoff. The consequences of it are known. The West has taken arms to free the Ottoman Empire from the yoke under which it was bowed down, and to restore it to the Sultan, with the guarantee of the Ottoman territory, and the plenitude and free exercise of his sovereign rights. The Eastern war, apart from its high European importance, had principally that character and that object. Is it then bacoming in the representative of one of the two great nations which de vote their gold and the blood of their soldiers to the sup port of this cause—in the Minister charged to make the all powerful authority of the Sultan respected —to him self forget the respect and the deference due to the chief of an allied nation ? In so doing, he most certainly dis regarded the intentions, and forget the friendly instruc tions, of his Government." Our contemporary then proceeds with great satis faction to show that not only was Lord Stratf or d de Redcliffe completely foiled in his interference, but that the very contrail to what his lordship de sired has taken place in the Turkish Government. The following is the language used : "This thoughtless proceeding appesrs, after all, to have bad a result diametrically contrary to that which he expected. The Ministry to which Mehemet Ali Pacha belongs is said to have been strengthened instead of weakened by it, if, indeed, it had need to be strength ened, and if the c onfidence of the Sultan were not, for all its members, sufficient title and authority. We are assured that all the Ottoman Ministers, united in the most complete understanding on all great questions, form hecceforth a united body which nothi ng seems capable of destroying ; all consider tiemselves as bound up one with another, and the retirement of one would assuredly cause the dislocation of allthe Cabinet. All have, besides, frankly engaged to second the Sultan in his civilising views, and to labour in common for the re generation, the progress, and the consolidation of the empire. We must congratulate ourselves on this new situation, which rescues Turkey hem the lamentable intrigues by which all the activite of that important nation has been so long paralysed ; and we must hope that the public welfare will hencefeith be the sole object and sole ambition of her statesme n . And it is because this wise and generous policy app -s to have triumphed in the councils of the Sultan that itis doubly melancholy to see it embarrassed or opposed by the representative of an allied government—by the man who ought to second it with the greatest pleasure'and devotedness." SCRAPS FROM THE CAMP. SEBASTOPOL PASTE. • It began to rain to-day (the 19th) soon after 12 o'clock, and the camp speedily: looked as gloomy, black, and wretched as was its wont during the winter. The wind- always accompanies these heavy falls of rain in the Crimea, with rare exceptions, and so it blew to-day furiously. The ground was Vapidly , turned into the well-known Sebastopol ;paste, famous for its adhesiVe properties, never to be shaken or rubbed off by any amount of scrub bing ; washing is the only operation to which it 'succumbs. , Every one who :is obliged to walk forth is hobbling about on two lumps of earth, :with large lateral extensions, which form under his feet ; fasten to his shoes, and increase at every step. THE TRANSPORT SERVICE. The Edwin Fox transport, No. 109, Captain Ferguson, arrived at Spithead from the East yesterday with sick and wounded. She sailed from Kazatch Aug. 11, Con stantinople Aug. 28, Malta Sept. 9, and Gibraltar, Sept. 22. On the 17th, off Cape de Gatt, she spok the barque Tigris from Portsmouth to Constantinople ; at the same time the brig• Emerald, from Syra to Cork. On the 24th spoke the schooner Marchioness, from Cadiz for London, off Cape Trafalgar ; on the 26th, off Cape St. Vincent, spoke the Lady M‘Naghten, No. 36 transport, for Spit head. The Edwin Fox has brought 149 invalids from 51 different regiments, 1 woman, 1 deserter, from the 24th, Regiment, found on board one of her Majesty's ships, 1 civil servant, and 1 convict, sentenced by Court martial to 14 years' transportation for attempting to de sert from the 12th Lancers to the Russian outposts before Sebastopol. The General Screw Company's steam-ship Queen of the South, Captain Beal, transport No. 135, will sail from Southampton to-day for Plymouth, where she will em bark 100 men of the Land Transport Corps and about 35 tons of stores for the Crimea. The Queen of the South has taken on board at Southampton about 800 tons' measurement of wooden huts, 30 tons weight of shell, and the following officers :—Lieut.-Colonel Hon. R. Dalzell, Major Studdart, Transprt Corps ; Captains T. Budd, F. G. Saunders, C. F. Mackenzie, Transport Corns ; Lieutenants Irby, 90th Regiment ; Maclean, 13th Dragoons ; Cordon, 19th Regiment ; Lieut.-Col. Daubenny, 55th Regiment ; Captain Higham, 17th Foot ; Rev. A. Macquire, Roman Catholic chaplain, &c. 107 men of the Medical Staff Corps will also em bark at Southampton. The Killingworth screw-transport, 607 tons register, and 120-horse power, has put to sea from Greenhithe with military stores from the East. The Scamander, having discharged her shot and shell, went up yesterday from Woolwich to reload at Deptford. Five Lieutenants of the Royal Artillery force at Wool wich—namely, Lieutenants Cavendish, Miller, Noeman, Parsons, and Phipps—with 100 men from different battalions, and 20 gunners and drivers, with some smiths, wheelers, and collar-makers, are ordered to hold themselves in readiness to embark for service in the Crimea. Lieutenant and Adjutant Lempriere, of the Royal Sappers and Miners, has returned to head-quarters at Woolwich, from a short stay at Leicester, whence he has received a number of volunteers for that corps. In con sequence of the augmentation of that body of her Ma jesty's service, the barrack accommodation there has be come inadequate to the increasing demand ; a number of huts have consequently been built at Chatham to house 500 of the men, and many more men are under canvass in the drill-ground —a confined space at the back of the hospital at Woolwich. Among the passengers who returned from the Crimea, by the Indiana, on Monday, was Lieutenant-Colonel Francis Seymour, Scots Fusilier Guards, who was severely wounded in the trenches on the night of the 24th of August. This officer has served throughout the whole of the campaign with his regiment, has been pre sent in every action, and was wounded at the battle of Inkerman. Major-General Lord Cardigan, Inspector-General of Cavalry, arrived in Dublin on Saturday evening. On Monday he inspected the 2d Dragoon Guards at the Royal Barracks, and on Tuesday the 16th Lancers at Portobello Barracks. The gallant General rode the horse which bore him at the celebrated charge at Bala klava" Lord Cardigan expressed his entire satisfaction at the admirable condition of these two fine cavalry re giments. The commanding officer of the Royal Engineers and other authorities of the Ordnance Department in Ireland have just entered into an extensive contract with Mr. Conolly, of Dublin, for the complete drainage of the camp on the Curragh. Several gangs of skilful workmen have been already engaged for the work. Captain Taddy, for some time in command of the Royal Artillery in the Kilkenny Military District, bas received the appointment of instructor at the Royal Re pository, Woolwich. Lieutenant-Colonel Buchannan, R.A., will replace Captain Taddy in Kilkenny, Lieu• tenant-Colonel Rowan, who was to have taken the com mand of the Artillery there, having been appointed second in command at Woolwich. The Land Transport Corps raised by Capt. Hudson for the camp at the Curragh marched from Dublin on Tues day morning. The men comprising the corps are volun teers from the Dublin Militia Artillery. The horses have been transferred from the Royal Artillery and 2d and 3d Dragoon Guards. THE MILITIA. The 4th Royal South Middlesex Militia has been assembled at Portsmouth by Col. Scriven, commanding, for the purpose of ascertaining what officers and men were willing to volunteer for foreign service. After the Colonel had addressed the regiment the whole of the officers and above 600 of the men stepped forward as volunteers. This regiment is 750 strong, and, having been employed in garrison duties for 12 months there is every probability of their se rv i ces b e i ng i mme diately an. cepted, as some of the corps who have volunteered have as yet all the duties of a garrison to learn. A great number of volunteers from the Tower Ham lets Militia baying gone over to other regiments, they are to be disbanded forthwith. The 2d or Somerset Militia arrived in Dublin on Mon day from Cork. ROYAL MARINE BRIGADE EMPLOYED IN THE CRIMEA. The Morning Herald says, in advocating the claims of the sailors of the Naval Brigade at Sebastopol, in our columns of Tuesday last, we were by no means unmind ful of the important services of the Royal Marines of the Black Sea fleet doing duty with the army in the Crimea, but preferred that it should form the subject of a separate article. All that we then urged in support of the claims of the Naval Brigade we most fully accord to the Royal Marines, who evinced, amid all the trials to which they were exposed, encamped on the cheerless and snowy heights of Balaklava, the same noble and un yielding spirit which animated the Naval Brigade. Ever since the landing of the Marines by Admiral Dundas at Eupatoria and Balaklava they have been dis tinguished for their uniform good conduct, and to them, in conjunction with the Highlanders, the key of our position (Balaklava) appears to have been entrusted, and right well have they performed their duty. A por tion of this gallant corps had an opportunity in sharing in the glories of the " soldi ers ' b a ttl e a t Inkerman,', and were honourably mentioned in the late Lord Rag lan's despatch ; and we have been informed that the marine camp on the heights of Balaklava is considered by military men something approaching to perfection, and is justly styled "the model camp of the Crimea." Therefore, whatever promotions, honours, or rewards the naval brigade may be considered to have won, we hope and trust thatan equal distribution will be awarded to the Royal Marine brigade of the Crimea for that de voted and patient conduct which so pre-eminently be longs to their distinguished corps. THE GOOD-SERVICE PENSION. By the death of Admiral John Giffard the First Lord of the Admiralty has caused Admiral the Hon. George Elliot, C. 8., to be placed on the reserved half-pay list, in the receipt of the good service pension. The follow ing short account of his services is extracted from Allen's New Navy List : " He was midshipman of the Britannia, off Cape St. Vincent, 1797; of the Goliah, at Nelson's bombardment RUSSIAN COOLNESS. It was amusing to watch the coolness of the Rus sians at work inside the large magazine at the north side to-day. Some of them. .usually stood in the doorway bythe waterside to look out for the mortars. " Bom' goes one, and the thick white smoke flies upwards in a circling pillar, marked here and there :with whirling rings. " T-wit ! twit ! twit !" the bomb whistles aloft, the sound becoming fainter and fainter as it leaves us; till it begins to grow on the ear of the gentleman in grey, who is on the watch at the other side ; he pops in his head, and out come at his summons, like rabbits scuttling from a ferret-haunted warren, a swarm of his com rades, just as the bomb; with - a prndiiious crash, And knocking up a cloud of tiles, timber, stones, And dirt, rushes through the roof, and. bursts in side ; they are down on their faces in a moment, and the bits fly over them, and strike the earth far inland, or dash the water of the harbour into foam. Then the "Rooskies" get up, and return placidly ito their work inside till the next bomb comes dan gerously near. If it does not fall inside the building, or is not likely to slip down on them through the roof, the fellows never stir out. TILE CRIMEAN MEDAL. Men differ as to the merits of the medal, but a large majority abuse it, and the clasps are likened generally to the labels on public-house wine bottles; DISTRIBUTION OF THE MEDALS. The proceedings at the distribution were tame and spiritless. A regiment was drawn up, the ;commanding officer stood in front ; beside him was serjeant with a big bag. " John Smith" was called. " Here ; " "Step forward," and up- came John Smith to the Colonel, who dipped his hand into the bag, took out a small parcel, and said, " John Smith, you were at Alma, Balaklava, and inkerman ?" " Yes." The Colonel handed him i the parcel, and John Smith retired to his place in the ranks with it in his hand, and opened it at the dismiss ; and this' was all, so far as I could see, that was made out of a proceeding which could - have been in the highest degree interesting and exciting to the soldiers... THE CLASP FOR BALAKLAVA. The Light Division, I believe, paraded and re ceived their medals and clasps en masse, with some show of ceremony. Perhaps the John Smith alluded to never saw a shot fired except at the dis tance of several miles. He might have been on guard at Lord Raglan's on the sth of November ; yet he wears the clasp for Inkerman. He might have been engaged in no more sanguinary work than killing oxen and sheep for the division in the commissariat slaughter-house, and yet he will show on his breast " Crimea" (of course), " Alma," " Balaklava," "Inkerman." Our wretched system of throwing away decorations by classes, and sow ing them broadcast over a whole army, deprives them of much of their real value. What can a sur 'vivor of the Light Cavalry charge think of the clasp " Balaklava" when he sees whole divisions of infantry soldiers wearing the same on their breasts ALMA DINNERS. This great anniversary was celebrated enthusi astically throughout the army. There were many " Alma dinners" among the regiments, both offi cers and men, and music and song kept the camp awake till long after midnight. Many a memory of the dead was revived, many an old wound re opened, at these festive meetings. HOW WOUNDED RUSSIANS DISAPPEAR. We have over and over again been astonished at the wonderful way in which the dead and wounded disappeared after the repulse of a sortie in which there were probably 200 of the enemy put hors de combat. Except the dead and wounded left in our trenches, none were ever to be seen after such occasions when day broke. A soldier of the 68th (M'Geevor), who was taken prisoner in a sortie some months ago, and who has since returned to his regiment after a long and interesting (to others) march in Russia, explains the mys tery, such as it was. On the night alluded to it could not be ascertained what the Russian loss was, but it was certain that the firing was very heavy, and the work very warm while it lasted. As this man was being taken to the rear after a stout resistance, he saw that there were hundreds of soldiers without arms between the reserves and the column of sortie, and that these men were exclusively employed in carrying away the dead and wounded, which would otherwise have been left in the hands of the British. THE EXTRA FIELD ALLOWANCE. ._ _ The following is amongst the latest General Orders issued : Head-quarters, Sebastopol, Sept. 21. No. 1. Her Majesty having been graciously pleased to grant an extra field allowance of 6d. per diem to the non-commissioned officers and soldiers of her regular army, when engaged in active operations in the field against the enemy, the same will be issued from the let of July, 1855, to all non-commissioned officers and sol diers, including the Royal Artillery, Royal Sappers and Miners, cavalry, and infantry of the army serving in the Crimea. The Commander of the Forces trusts that the troops will make a good use of this addition to their pay, and reminds them of the facilities that now exist for remitting money to Eneand. He hopes that he may have the pleasure of reporting hereafter that the means of obtain ing- increased comforts which are thus placed at the disposal of the soldiers have not been the cause of irre gularity or intemperance. Commanding officers are empowered to stop the field allowance of any soldier for any period not exceeding seven days in a proved case of drunkenness. During the period of a non-commissioned officer or' soldier being in hospital his field allowance will cease, but will be allowed from the day he returns to duty in the field. In all cases in which the pay of a soldier is forfeited for absence without leave, or when any portion of the pay of a soldier is forfeited by convio tion by a Court-martial, his field allowance will be for feited also. By order. H. W. BARNARD, Chief of the Staff. There have been various reports respecting the cruel treatment of the wounded British soldiers by the Russians. The following interesting history, received in a letter from the Crimea, will show that this cruelty is not always employed : CRIMEA, Sept. 18. Lieutenant Massy, who only joined the head-quarters of the regiment lately, a chubby faced youth of sixteen years of age, led the Grenadiers of the 19th Regiment into action at the assault upon the Redan on the Bth inst. They came up to the support of the attacking columns. Nothing could exceed the bravery of this young fellow. He went on in front of his men, got across the ditch, and climbed to the parapet on the op posite side.. Here his progress was impeded by the men of different regiments, who were crowded together, vainly endeavouring to effect an entrance into the work. The men fell thickly around - him; but he escaped. He was one of the very, last who retired. On his return, as he was mounting the counterscarp, and just at the edge of the natural glacis of the hill, some soldier caught hold of his leg to assist himself in mounting up. At that moment a rifle ball struck young Massy in the left thigh. The bone was broken near the hip joint, and, he was unable to extricate himself from his dangerous position. He crawled on a few yards, and there re mained. Now came a fearful trial. The Russians were! showing themselves thickly on the parapets of the Redan, firing at our men who were retiring, and, in turn, our troops were firing up at the Redan from the first parallel of the works of the right attack. The shot flew like hail around him. Then came the rou n d s h o t an d; shell directed against the enemy in the Redan, butt many of which struck short, and cut up the ground, where the wounded were lying between the abattis and; the ditch. Every shot which struck the parapet ofj the Redan sent back a shower of dust and stones over, the nearest wounded. Some of our men, lying thus, dreadfully exposed, even asked the Russians to take. them into the work, by appealing to them, "Johnny,' Johnny." In several instances the Russians slipped out,, in spite of the fire, and carried some of the wounded and placed them under shelter. Young Massy, however, kept himself quiet, and continued near to the spot wh ere he had fallen. He felt as if his life must be lost, and yet' at the same time hope was kept up by an opposite feel in, that he might be spared to escape. At last, wh en He opened his co a t ee the fire had in a great degree subsided , a nd t he after noon was advancing, a Russian soldi er in hi s charac teristic grey coat came to him. to find if he had any valuables there, then sought f or a watch or other things, but handled him so gently that Massy felt no fear respecting the wan taking hi s lif e. At last he left him, taking his sword and havresack. This was the only Russian who came to him ; others were around collecting the Minie rifles and anythi ng else they thought worth taki n g away. Massy sa w no barbarity or ill-treatment now ; previotisly, • while the fighting was going on, many of the wounded were bayo neted by the enemy. Some time elapsed, the firing had ceased all around, evening was advancing, 4/hen sud denly, without any warning, the ground shook, and there was a terrific noise from an explosion. It was one of the magazines in the Redan which the RusSians had fired. Down came a shower of dust and gravel, and as i 1-fortune would have it, there fell also a large stone and struck poor Massy on the right thigh, the one which %las - not previously wounded. It inflicted a very severe bruise. Soon afterwards he perceived in the dusk some twelve or fifteen men coining cautiously up towards the Redan. They were not very far distant when be first perceived them, but what amazed him was that they were ndt fired at. He could not divine why this was, or what the Russians were about ; and at last suspected that the men must be Russians them selves who were not observed from our trenches. They went into the Redan, and he lost sight of them, but after a short time they came back again, and be dis covered them to belong t o one o f our Highland regi ments. The French had communicated the fact that the Russians had deserted the Redan, and this party had gone to reconnoitre. Fortunately they did not remain longer, for shortly after their return anoth e r magaz i ne of the Redan was blown up. Had.they been within the work, the probability is that the greater part of them would have been destroyed. Massy, as he lay at the edge of the ditch, wa s a ga i n covere d by • the dirt and loose fragments which were thrown up into the air, but this time received no hurt. Subsequently he attracted the attention of one of the Highlander; and afters, short time was carried in a loose great-coat to the trenches. There his wound was exami ne d by an aasistant-surgeon, and he was sent up cin . a-stretcheutitstalalh ,, iiielisgaleg ou favourably, but - his wound - is of a very dangerous character. The following is from a diary kept by a surgeon of the 55th Regiment : "Friday, Sept. 7.—On coining home from a stroll to the Limekilns, whither I had gore to have another look at the often•looked-at city, I found that a clear-out had been made of the hospital ; the sick had been sent to Balak lava, and an order had come that officers and men. were to prepare two days' rations, to breakfast at 6, and parade at S ; so I made ready my havresack by replen ishing it with lint, bandages, &c. ; had some beef boiled, bread got, flasks filled, and turned in. Bombardment, confined chiefly to the left, going on all day. " Saturday, Sept. B.—C-- awoke me about daylight; tremendously cold morning ; had a cup of tea ; went round hospital, and then marched off with regiment to parade-ground, where we waited a long time, having started too soon. At parade, General Codrington gave a short address, informing us that we were to act as sup ports to the storming party—an important duty, which would, he doubted not, be well performed—that we were to occupy the fourth parallel, moving gradually into the fifth, then to enter the Redan, and insure the possession of it to the stormers. So off we marched down the middle ravine. My staff consisted of Carmodie and two bands men, as orderlies, carrying my havresack, rum-barrel, &c. I marched beside Burke, our adjutant, at the head of the Grenadier company. As we went along I gathered that the French were to attack the Malakhoff at 12 o'clock, and that their standard, planted on the tower and the English flag on the Mamelon,gwere to be our signal of attack upon the Redan. On we went through the ravine to the oft-trod trenches, keeping up a smart fire, to which the Russians replied but seldom. On the left the ham bardincnt wa, kept up heavily. We jogged along till we got to the fourth parallel, then gradually moved Gown the approach of the fifth ; now sitting on the breastwork, speaking over the coming event of the day, then moving I on a tittle. Being with th e G rena di er or fl an k company, I was next to thelig lit company of the 30th, and went along talking with its officers—among others Col. Patullo, who not long after was brought to me mortally wounded, and Sanders, who was also severely wounded. Gradually we reached the end of the approach, where it joins the fifth parallel, and at that corner most of us of the 55th and 30th ;were talking together with Gen. Warren, all keeping a Sharp look-out at the Malakhoff as far as possible amid the rifle-bullets that were flying about from the Redan. We were now on the tiptoe of expectation, for our guns ad commenced such a fire as I never before heard-- olleys of eight and ten at a tune, which, being fired roin behind, passed but a few feet over our heads, tear ing up the earthworks of the Redan in grand style;—the 'French, too, opened a tremendous fire from the Marne lon. At 12 o'clock exactly `There go the French !' was heard ; in a moment we were all up on the breastwork, thinking nothing of the round shot and grape that came bounds g and whizzing a mong us , th row i ng up eart h an d 'stones, smashing gabions, and knocking down men. It was a splendid sight to see the French rushing up the steep side of the Malakhoff—we saw it but a few mo tments, as all was soon obscured in smoke; but high above !we could distinguish the French standard waving over !the Malakhoff Tower ; and it was pleasanter still to see !the Russians rushing helter-skelter out from the works (down to the Redan. It was sharp work, for at twenty Iminutes past 12 our signal was up—a white flag—on the IMarnelon. Colonel Cuddy saw it first, and rushed off to the head of his men ; so we all shook hands and moved ;down the trench as last as we could, for our attacking party had passed out of the sap, and we saw them rush ing on the Redan. Many a fine fend , * was cut short in his career across the open by the grapeshot, which came lin fearful volleys. I kept up with my regiment as well as I could, for the wounded falling around me kept me back. I bound them up, and then made a run after the regiment till arrested by others, and so on till I got to the end of the sap which led to the open. To go further was useless, already there was such a crowd of wounded around, so I took up my position there—no enviable one I —for grape and shot came bounding among us, wound ing those beside me. Two Riflemen fell dead almost ou the top of me. I kad plenty to do, and the time passed without my knowing how it flew—l was so busy. Cure, our major, was one of the first officers who came to me, a grapeshot breaking his arm; then Richards, one of our Captains, struck on the ankle by grape. He wanted to go back, but I would not let him—nor could he, if I had, for he fainted when I had him laid on the breastwork. Officers and men came crowdir, on, mowed down by th e gra p e f rom th e flanking fire which rushed over and among us, throwing up dust and stones, which dealt us no gentle raps. I was struck twice, once on the back, by, I think, a grapeshot, but I had no time to look, and once on the foot by a rife ball, both sinarters ;' but that was all. I was too busy to observe anything that was going on ; so, except the first rush, I saw nothing, I may say, of the attack. While I was hard at work among the wounded the soldiers around cried out, 'Doctor, you must iget out of the way—they are retreating ;' so I looked up and saw our men rushing helter skelter into and over the open to the trenches in the rear of us. I did not exactly know what to do, so I drew my sword (which, by the way, got very bloody that day, but not with Russian blood), and went on with my dressing till I had finished all about me, and then thought of moving off. I could not leave poor Richards, as we all expected the Russians to be in among us every minute, so there was nothing for it but to put him on my back and carry him, which I did till I got a stretcher by some means or other, and raised some men of the reserve to carry him home. Then I went down to the trenches again, dres sing any wounded I found on the way. While doing so, Sanders called out to me from the trenches, into which he had staggered, with the knee-joint of one leg smashed, and a bullet through the other. He bore it all splendidly. I dressed his wounds, got a scaling ladder and sent him 'home' too. The Russians did not come out, and when I left the city began to blaze. "Sept. 9. —Up at daylight, and down with the regi ment. I went out with the Adjutant tvo look for Colonel Cuddy's body, which was found with the arm upraised, as if waving his sword to go into the Redan. Had a look round there. Stationed in 21-gun-battery all day. "Sept. 10.—Set to work in hospital at eight o'clock ; got done about five ; had dinner ; went round and saw a few wounded officers I knew, and back to hospital again. My back is by this time pretty sore with stooping. I have just been warned to go with the regiment on a bathine, and washing expeditio n t o th e T c h erna y a , for fear of accident. Start ac seven o'clock." The Semaphore of Marseilles, in a letter from Sebastopol, dated the 18th, says : " We have ascertained some further details of the late evacuation of the town by the enemy. In the night of the Bth the Russians we re so eager to regain the north side of the harbour by th e bridge of rafts which they had constructed, that a number of men fel l into the water and were drowned. Some convicts, who bad i been libe rated for the purpose, were left in the place n order to set fire to everythingthat might be of use to the besiegers. Fortunately these plans could only be carriedinto par tial execution. A circumstance which will give an idea of the character which the Russians endeavour to impart to the present war took place at Sebastop o l on the 9th. It is known that on the morning of th a t d ay Prince Gortschakoff hoisted a white flag on Port Constantine, the object being to demand an armistice for the purpose of removing the dead and wounded. Whil e he was wait ing for the an swer, explos ions continued almost without interruption, and afterwards, w hil e the enemy were being allowed to remove 500 wounded Russians from the naval storehouses, they set fire to the mines of Fort St. Paul into which some French soldiers had entered sick, and w h er e there wer e a l so 750 wounded Russians.' All t h e se unfortunat e men perished together. Itwould be iieposible t o g i ve credit to such acts of inhu manity perpetrated in the nineteenth century, if the exactitud e o f t h e fact were not confirmed by thou sands of witnesses. The booty, which is said to have been estimated by a captain of the English navy, is worth 7,000,0001 ., and the losses of the Russians a ' mount to 80,000,000 f. That valuation of course only relates to the loss of the present moment. Russia has beheld up wards of two milliards, and more than 200,000 men sn allowed up in the struggle at Sebastopol. The line of the Tehernaya becomes a position of great importance at the present moment, from the strategical operations of which it is about to serve as the base. Ido not here i speak of th e movemen t s o f t h e troops, or o f a ll th a t s said here as to the future plans of campaign, but I can tell you that the opinion every day gains ground that the Russians are about to evacuate the Crimea, covering their retreat by some movement of their troops. .The operation will b e a ver y d e li ca t e one when we consider the quantity of materiel they have to take with them. [ PRICE 4 D. STAMPED 5D- TILE MURDER AT CUDHAM. Sarah Bagley, the mother-in-law of the murdered woman, has now so far rallied as to give strong hopes of her ultimate recovery. She can speak with tolerable facility, but is unable to state by whom or in what man ner she was so seriously maltreated. Her statement is, that immediately after her son and grandson had left the she fell i n t o a d ose , f c r o o t m tag w e h , jecvherByhteh,i,n,gt, r a e r m ou a s in ed ing byqu i et, a frightful blow on the head, which completely etunned her, and she remembered nothing more until her son arrived in the evening. She adds that she did not see the fellow who struck the blow, neither did she hear any noise. Her case continues to excite much commiseration in the neighbourhood. It appears that a burglary was committed on the Sa turday night ,preceding the murder, at the residence of a Miss Shepherd, near Thornbury, and it has been proved that Palin sold abut that period, at Croydon, a black frock coat and black waistcoat, fully corresponding with a portion of the property stolen off Miss Shepherd's pre mises. Indeed, as Palin's character becomes more and more known, the greatest wonder is caused at his having been at liberty even for the few weeks after his discharge from Dartmoor Prison, as from the day he left the prison he seems to have been mixed up with numerous daring burglaries and robberies. Only a few nights before the murderous attack on the Bagleys, a clergyman's house, a few miles from the scene of blood, was burglariously attempted twice, and the reverend gentleman, at the time the house was attempted, gave it as his opinion that Palin was at his tricks again, and that he made the attack on his house in p ar ti cu l ar th r ough his refusing, when applied to by P a li n s friends, to sign the document necessary before he could re ceive his ticket-of-leave. Subsequently anoth er h ous e was entered a short distance from the clergyman's, and a deal of property carried oft. ALARMING ACCIDENT TO MRS. COLONEL SOMERSET.— An alarming accident happened this week to the lady of Col. Edward Somerset, M.P., one of the aides de-camp of the late Field-Marshal Lord Raglan. Mrs. Somerset, who had been staying at the r es id ence of her father, W. Miles, Esq., at Leigh Court, was driving out in a pony phaeton, accompanied by her youthful daughter and a young lady, when, on going up Markham-hill, the pony became restive and unmanageable, and running the vehicle against a heap of stones, threw all the ladies vio lently into the road. The animal, by kicking and strug gling, righted the phaeton, and then dashed off at a fu rious rate towards Ham-green, the seat of Mrs. Somer set's brother, Mr. P. J. Miles. It unfortunately hap pened that a nu m b er o f c hi l d ren were playing at t h e time i n front of the Blue Bowl Inn, which lay in the direct route, and the pony knocked down one of them, the ch i ld o f a labouring man, and the wheel ° taken f the phaeton p asse d over h er head.
