MA RTIN'S chair, upon the mover and supporters of his notable amend ment, that their views had better be stated in the shape of a distinct and substantive resolution, so as to enable the meet ing to record their apparently unanimous opinion in favour of the Restoration of Poland, and then record their opinion, if they thought proper, on the particular policy of Lord Pal merston; but, no, this would not do—Poland must be con tent to remain as she is until the dreaded Tiscount could be got rid of. So then, according to this sagacious reasoning, we are to cast into abeyance all efforts on behalf of Poland ; we are to decline to act upon the dictates of the purest right and justice, as well as those of the soundest policy, all com bining to urge the employment of every effort for the re-esta blishment of the independence of that martyred nation, from whose gallant people and fertile plains Russia draws the flower of her forces and the richest of her supplies, to say nothing of other oppressed nationalities ; we are to cease all attempts to diminish the horrors of the present contest by weakening the hosts of the enemy, until Lord Palmerston shall have been removed from power ! Surely, the utmost ambition of the Premier never soared to this high pitch The Crown is nothing, the Parliament is nothing, the people nothing, the nation nothing, so long as Lord Palmerston is in office. He alone is all—Monarch, Lords, Commons, People ! and everything is to stand still as regards unhappy Poland, whilst myriads of lives more may be sacrificed, and torrents of blood—as gallant blood as ever flowed in the veins of the sons of England and France—may be shed, no Polish Legions shall be formed, the glorious flag of Poland shall not be unfurled, not a finger shall be moved to relieve the bondage of her people, until Messrs. Dobson, Collett, and George Thompson shall have succeeded in get ting rid of the English Autocrat. It is for the inhabitants of this great metropolis to decide whether the course thus pursued on Wednesday evening is a just and fair representation of their views and opinions. As regards the promoters of the meeting, and tho Council of the Association of the Friends of Poland, of which the lamented Lord Dudley Stuart was President, they have endeavoured to do their duty to a country whose best interests they have ever had at heart, and in whose service their lamented President drew his last breath—with respect to the insinuations made on Wednesday night, and on other occasions, that the pro moters of the meeting acted in any way in concert with, or under the influence of, Government, they have already given to such insinuations a positive and contemptuous denial.

NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING, TUESDAY, OCT. 9. NOMINATIONS FOR THE CESAREWITCH STAKES. HALL. The following are the resolutions, with the petition, which the friends of Poland were prepared to submit to the meeting at St. Martin's-hall, on Wednesday evening, when the order of the proceedings was broken down : " That it will afford the best security for the preservation of the balance of power in Europe, and the protection of its liberties, that Poland should be restored as a separate and independent State ; a measure, the necessity of which has been recognised by most of the great Conservative statesmen of Europe." " That it is highly desirable that a Polish Legion should be immediately organised, for the purpose •f enlisting the sympa thies and inviting the co-operation of the Poles, particularly those serving in the Russian. army," " That the heroic French nation be called on to unite with the British nation in favour of the re-establishment of Poland, which Napoleon the Great, the immortal predecessor of the present Emperor of the French, considered the only effectual means of preventing Russia from overwhelming the liberties of Europe." " That all the constituencies in the United Kingdom are earnestly requested to hold meetings in behalf of the inde pendence of Poland and the formation of a Polish legion, and it is hoped that the press will cordially continue to advocate and further these objects." " That petitions be presented to both Houses of Parliament praying the immediate formation of Polish Legions, and the restoration of the ancient kingdom of Poland, as the surest means of obtaining a solid and durable peace." " That the following address to the Polish nation be adopted and signed by the chairman on behalf of the meeting, and be transmitted for circulation to the venerable and illustrious Prince Adam Czartoryski." The following is a copy of an address to the Polish nation, which it was intended to have submitted to the meeting had the proceedings not been interrupted : " ADDRESS TO THE POLISH NATION, AGREED TO AT A PUBLIC MEET- SEC URITY TO EMPLOYERS.

From - he German of Dr. PICKFORIr. With an Introduction by the Editor, containing a complete exposure of the system of terrorism and extortion pursued by the advertising quacks of the metropolis towards those who are credulous enough to seek their aid. " Dr. Pickford 's known to English readers by his frequent practi cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs as, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in. his ~over to cor rect." —London Medical Gazette. " The tribe of ' Quiet Sympathisers.' and 'Medical Friends, ' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from the com plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize— much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat ment upon a more rational and physiological basis.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con s ounces resulting erc,m certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, ehich have prcduced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man .ood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any :ther class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is sarticularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of haring hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled: It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there arc principles of personal management which cannot he violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties nay be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, end how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, hat there Is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional lerangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. rho Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate compiaints, which have ar fortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant emnirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

A letter from Warsaw of the 2d, in the Constitic tionnel, says :—" It has been stated that there is a camp of 40,000 men established near this city, but nothing can be farther from the truth. Such a large body of troops is nowhere concentrated in Poland, and as for the camp at Mariemont, of which so much has been said, it no longer exists, and you may rely on the correctness of what I state, that the troops in Poland are not very numerous. . It is I , ,anifest that for some time past the Russian Government has com pletely changed its plan of defence. Poland at first was intended to be occupied by a consi derable army, and provisions for more than 200,000 men were collected in the fortress of Modlin. Now we have only small garrisons, and those supplies are all spoiling. A very short time since 1,800 tons of salt meat, in a state of decomposition, were thrown into the Narew and Vistula, which flow past the fortress of Modlin ; and the permis sion now granted for exporting corn and other ar ticles of food to Cracow, Gallicia, and the Bucko win a, shows that the Russian Government no longer thinks it necessary to keep up a large force in Poland. Large quantities of provisions have been recently sent into Bessarabia. The inhabitants of Podolia, Volhynia, and Bessarabia suffer consider ably from the constant passage of troops through those countries, and any one must be ignorant of the actual state of the people of those provinces who imagines that they are devoted to the cause of the Czars. The priests in vain endeavour to excite their fanaticism in favour of the present war. The inhabitants of ancient Boland, as well as the Zapo rogue Cossacks, entertain the vague hope of reco vering their former independence, and no further sacrifices can be demanded from them beyond what are now imposed. To-morrow will be celebrated hero the triple fete of the Empress Maria Alexan drowna, of the Grand Duchess Maria Nicolaiewna, widow of the Prince de Leuchtenberg, and of the Grand Duchess Maria Paulowna, widow of the Grand Duke of Saxe Weimar." The Postmastership of Jersey, which has been vacant some considerable time, has at length been filled up by the appointment to the situation 8f Mr. A. Forrest, of the General Post-office, Edinburgh. NATIONAL FLORICULTURAL SOCIETT.—A most in teresting exhibition of plants took place yesterday, at the rooms of this society, 21, Regent-street. The fea ture of the show consisted of a collection of roses, sent by Mr. Paul, of Cheshunt. As regards colour and per fection of development we have never witnessed any thing equal to the display of yesterday. A FRENZIi STRATAGEM.—At the attack of the Mame lon, on the 7th, the signal given was six rockets from the Victoria Redoubt. Under the impression that the besieged would probably for the future keep a good lock out for demonstrations of this nature, the French, not many days since, made the same signal, and accompa nied it with the roll of drums in the trenches towards the front, and words of command, given in a loud tone. The result justified their anticipations, as the Russian bugles sounded the assembly, and their troops were seen crowding into the Malakhoff, ready to repel the sup posed premeditated attack. Immediately the guns and mortars bearing on the threatened point poured forth their iron hail. Grape, canister, and shells fell among the besieged "fast and furious, and only ceased when the fire from the enemy showed that the panic had passed away. On the whole this ruse de guerre was satis factoryferers. in the extreme to all concerned, except the suf. rADVERTIBEMENTI—The difficulties and dangers of bringing up Infants by hand or wet nurses have been entirely over come by Du Barry's delicious Revalenta Arabica Food, which feeds, strengthens, and removes all those little pains and irre gularities infants aro so subject to.

" Poles, - Nearly one quarter of a century has elapsed since the,Diet of Poland, on the eve of the fatal but immortal con flict in which the ugion was about to engage in defence of the holy cause of national independence, appealed in vain for support to the Cabinets of France and England, and declared, with a sad and prophetic devotion, that, if they were doomed to wage alone the impending and unequal contest, and should fall, that fall should only be accomplished by the liberty of your country being buried under the ruin of its towns and the bodies of their defenders. " Well and gloriously was that sad pledge redeemed ; you added ancther imperishable example to the annals of patriot ism, of how men should battle and die rather than live op pressed and dishonoured. " It should lee vain at this great crisis to regret, useless to speculate on, the political urgencies and motives which then denied to Christian Poland the assistance which is now being extended, under far less favourable circumstances, to Alaho medan Turkey, against the same insatiable and unscrupulous Power which was then allowed to destroy the nationality of the former, but is now arrested in its attempt to absorb the latter. " Enough that Providence, just and righteous in all its ways, has brought about the hour and crisis, often foretold, when Europe should deeply feel the loss of Poland, and need her revival ; and still more, has brought about that which the most far-seeing statesman could scarcely anticipate, or the most sanguine philanthropist hope for the best means of ac complishing that revival in the union, the auspiesus and chivalrous union of France and England as the champions of European safety and independence. " Poles ! deep and fervent has been the sympathy with your unmerited misfortunes, the admiration of your heroism in defence of your country's rights and liberties, which many of the best and noblest of the sons of both France and Eng land have, from time to time, expressed ; the hour, we hope and trust, is at hand when that sympathy and admiration shall be expressed not merely in eloquent words, bnt in earnest actions, when France and England shall unite in inviting the patriot sons of Poland to unfurl, once more, their long-furled, but unspotted, banner—unfurl it not only in their own dear country's cause, but iu that cause for which they have so often fought and conquered and died—the protection of the rights and liberties of others as well as themselves. May that hour find you prepared prepared with as much fortitude for the battle-field as you hare exhibited un der the heaviest calamities that ever tried a nation's courage, virtue, and endurance. " May that hour find you united, and, thus giving the lie to the vile and ignorant calumny, that even from the pens and lips of pretended friends as well as of open and traditional foes, and with dastardly malevolence of purpose, has pursued and insulted you under the terrible burden of your own and your country's downfall was owing to your own inveterate habits of disunion and anarchy—as if it were not a palpable fact, embalmed in the plainest and clearest characters of history, that your unanimous labours for that country's regeneration from the evils of anarchy, and in the midst of the greatest obstacles, and a pure and enlightened spirit of order and rational liberty, which called forth the warmest eulogies of the leading statesmen of civilised Europe, were the real and unpardonable crimes in the eyes of neigh ing despots which caused the dismemberment of your coun try—as your subsequent resistance to the most flagrant vio lation of solemn engagements, and the most cruel and intoler able oppression, was the pretext for the destruction of your national existence. " Poles! we addreEs you as Englishmen and friends who have affectionately sympathised with you in your calamities, and are firmly convinced that the restoration of your country under a national and enlightened Government will be as worthy of you as it is eminently conducive to the petted and safety of Europe. " May our Almighty and all-merciful God grant the speedy and full accomplishment of our desires and your hopes. " Signed on behalf of the meeting by the Chairman." A petition, of which the following is a copy, was also prepared for signature : . - "TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE TILE LORDS SPIRITUAL AND TEMPORAL. IN PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED. " The humble petition of the undersigned " Showeth, That as the Russian army to the extent of at least'2oo,ooo men consists of Poles, it is of the utmost im portance that the Polish auxiliaries for service in the Crimea, on the Danube, and the shores of the Baltic, bearing the standard and wearing the uniform of their country, should be instantly enrolled ; and if the Government shall longer ne glect so obvious and effectual a mode of disorganising the forces of the enemy, it will incur the heavy responsibility of sacrificing unnecessarily our brave army ill the Crimea, and fall under a just suspicion that it is not, even yet, earnest in prosecuting the war. " That by the massacre of the Turks at Sinope, by firing on a flag of truce at Odessa, by the barbarous murder of English sailors engaged in a charitable mission under the pro tection of a flag of truce at Hango, by violating all the en gagements into which she solemnly entered at Vienna (and for adhering to which she receives, at the present moment, 80,000/. per annum from this country), by holding a majority of her population in a state of absolute slavery, and, lastly, by her perfidious aggression on the integrity and independ ence of Turkey, Russia has proved to the world that she does not deserve to be ranked amongst civilised States. " That the Poles have, unlike the Russians, distinguished themselves not merely by military virtues, but by their chi valrous readiness to protect their weaker neighbours against their enemies, however formidable ; that the policy of th• Poles was never aggressive ; and that, principally through their attachment to constitutional liberty, they became the ♦ictims of a conspiracy between the three great despotic powers. "That by the possession of the fertile plains of Poland situ ated in the heart and constituting the grinary of Europe, and the erection of five great fortresses in that country—Warsaw, Demblin, Brzesc Litewski, and Zamosc—Russia has attained her present alarming preponderance of power, result ing in the invasion of Hungary, and the aggression of Turkey, the immediate cause of the present war ; and, in the opinion of your petitioners, a reduction of that power within such limits as shall render it innocuous in future to the tranquillity , and liberties of other nations can be most effectually accom plished by the restoration of Poland to the position and rank of an independent State. " T;.at the difficulties of the war, far from being increased by proclaiming as one of its objects the restoration of Poland, would be thereby greatly diminished ; that the valiant army of Swede; consisting of more than ono hundred thousand men, and her large fleet of gun-boats, would at once, if she joined the allies, !place the strongholds of the Baltic at their mercy ; and that, in the opinion of your petitioners, she has been prevented from doing so, in spite of the wrongs which she has sustained from Russia, and the hostility which her entire population entertains against that State, by impolitic declarations from certain late members of the English Govern ment that it was not their intention to diminish the territory or humble the power of Russia ; and that if the restoration of Poland were decided on, the alliance of Sweden would be secured, and she would in all probability be able, supported by the exertions of the Poles themselves (oven without the assistance of the allies), to effectuate this great object. " That the proclamation by the present Emperor of Russia that the object of his reign will be to accomplish the wishes and ♦iews of Peter, of Catherine, of Alexander, and of Nicho las, is an open and direct menace, threatening the repose, independence, and safety of all neighbouring States ; and whilst it indisputably shows that the spirit of encroachment and wrong by which the councils of Russia have been avowedly and traditionally animated' is still in full and venomous force, it renders inestimably precious and singularly auspicious the present providential union of England and France, and also makes it imperatively the duty of all other European nations, who are not either the helpless victims or abject and dishonest accomplices of Russian violence and fraud, to join openly and heartily in the present contest. " Your petitioners, therefore, humbly pray your lordships that you will be pleased to present an address to her most gracious Majesty the Queen, praying her Majesty to give im mediate directions for the enrolment of Poles in separate corps, wearing the uniform and bearing the standard of their country, and that they may be employed as auxiliaries in the operations of war now being carried on against the Russian empire : and further, that her Majesty will concert with her august ally, the Emperor of the French, respecting the best means for restoring Poland to its proper place amongst the nations of Europe as a free and independent State, and thus securing a sufficient and material guarantee for a just and durable peace with Russia. " And your petitioners, as in duty lnund, will ever Pray," &c. (Front a Correspondent of the Morning Advertiaer.) The meeting of Wednesday evening, at St. Martin's Hall, was convened for the purpose of giving expression to the feel ing which the promoters of that meeting believed to exist generally throughout the country on the subject of the Re. storation of Poland, as being the only effectual means of reducing permanently the power of Russias and securing the blessings of a solid and durable peace founded on the princi ples of international right and justice ; and in the hope that such a meeting in the metropolis would lead to similar meet ings in the provinces during the recess, so as to bring the national will to bear with full weight and effect upon the Parliament at its re-assembling. All these desirable purposes and objects were frustrated, and the meeting was thrown into confusion and disorder by the first resolution, which declared the necessity of the Restoration of Poland, being met by an amendment, supported by an evidently organised body of persons, professing to be e. friends of Poland, an amendment to the effect that the storation of Poland would be a snare and a del usion so long as Lord Palmerston remained Prime Minister. This may not have been a movement in tr y jionxtperet of re s saion Russia, it may have been a perfectly cen scien of opinion; but, if so, an ythi n g more senseless thani the course pursued can scarcely be conceived.

The Great Britain steam-transport, Capt. Gray, will disembark her invalids at Portsmouth Dockyard this morning. We alluded to the admirable and peculiar manner in which this ship berthed her troops on her leaving Portsmouth with the East Kent Militia for Malta, a few months since, and the care bestowed upon their comforts. This led to the presentation of a hands some silver fish slice and fork to Capt. Gray, bearing the following inscription : "From Col. Brockman, East Kent Reg., commanding the troops, to Capt. John Gray, commander of the steam ship Great Britain, in remembrance of the kindness and attention shown by him to the officers and men of the That Kent Regiment, and the several detachments on board, during their passage from Portsmouth to April 24, 1855." Yesterday, on the arrival of the Great Britain at Ports mouth, Captain Gray received another testimonial, of which the following is a copy : "Her'Majesty's steam-transport Great Britain, August 8, 1855. "My dear Sir,—ln the name oP the offfeers returning home in the Great Britain, I beg to offer yon our most sincere thanks for your kind care and attention to us during the voyage.

Her Majesty the Queen, accompanied by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, visited Shorncliffe camp yester day, and passed in review the Foreign Legion. Travel ling by special train along the South Coast and South- Eastern lines, they arrived at Folkestone at twelve o'clock, and proceeded at once by carriage to the site of the encampment above Sandgate. Nothing can he finer in its way than the situation of the camp, formed on the cliff at the base of which the pretty village of Sandgate nestles, and overlooking the restless Channel, with its neeer-ending panorama of ships and steamers. Here the Queen's arrival was not expected until 1 o'clock, and the troops had hardly formed in line along the north-east and west sides of the extensive quadrangle, which, from the arrangement of the huts around it, the Parade forms, before the Royal carriage drove up to the flagstaff. Whether there had Leen a miscalculation of time, or ignorance of the punctuality which charac terises all the movements of her Majesty, or merely a desire to show how quickly the men could be in their pieces, certain it is that the. line which it took our Mi litia recently a good hour by the clock to form at Alder eliott on a simi'ar occasion was here formed at once. At the flagstaff, which was fixed on the south side of the encampment, her Majesty was received by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, Lord Har dinge, General Wetherell, Lord Panmure, and Mr. aFre derick Peel. There was also collected round this spot a number of carriages filled with occupants numberf from of m the neighbouring watering places, but the people from town was smaller than might have been ex pected ; and the only officer of distinction who m we ob served present from motives of curiosity was Sir Howard Douglas. The fine area of the parade-ground was ad mirably kept throughout the day by the combined efforts of the local constabulary, of the yet unmounted cavalry soldiers belonging to the Legion, and of that most übiquitous and useful body, the A division of the metropolitan police. The Kent Mounted Rifles, besides acting as an escort to the Royal carriage, assisted in this duty ; and they looked well in their handsome grey uniforms and polished black helmets. There is not much to describe in the actual proceedings of the review, for it was limited strictly to the usual programme observed on such occasions,—namely a general salute, followed by an inspection along the whole line, and the defile. It must, however, be borne in mind that although, with a number of men not exceeding in the aggregate 3,500, there was wisely no attempt mad 3 at the pageantry of a grand military spectacle, in other respects the occasion possessed its own peculiar share of interest and attrac tion. The Queen came in a quiet, almost business-like way, to look at the stamp of men whom the liberality of Parliament has enabled her to collect from foreign countries as a supplement to the strength of her own army. She came with the Commander-in-Chief of her Forces and her Minister for War to see whether the first levies drawn from abroad to aid us in the great struggle between freedom and absolutism are of the right sort of stuff,—whether the German Fatherland and the brave race of Swiss, and the hardy Dane, and the industrious Belgian people have among them that hatred of the Muscovite cause upon the strength of which the Legion has been established. Her Majesty must have been en tirely satisfied with the result of her inspection. To have survived obloquy springing from not -an natural prejudices here, and severe restrictions inter posed by the jealousy of particular Governments abroad, constitutes in itself no small measure of success. To have turned out at this early period since the sanction of the Legislature was obtained 3,500 admirable soldiers, fit in every way for entering to-morrow upon active service, and destined, we believe, to do so, may be pro nounced a triumph. The possibility of forming a powerful and effective Foreign Legion is no longer doubtful ; and, however mortifying it may be in some respects that we have to seek external aid of this kind, every one must be gratified to find the military spirit of the con tinent responding so readily to the invitation which we have held out. There are not only Germans and Swiss, and Belgian.; and Hoisteiners in the Legion, but many and Italians. In the ranks are to he found fre quently men of gentle and, occ ,s4mally, men even of noble birth ; nor, from the wind feeling hitherto displayed, and the earnestness with which the training has been con• ducted, is there any reason to doubt that the corps, as a whole, will maintain its discipline and act together har moniously. Better materials for soldiering than were exhibited yesterday in the presence of Royalty it would be quite unreasonable to expect. The men are hardy-looking, strong-built fellows, of a good height, and evidently well up in their drill. Their officers have laboured to per fect their training with a zeal which cannot be too highly praised, and we expect soon to hear that the flattering promise held out yesterday by both has been more than justified by action in the field. After the general salute with which her Majesty was received on arriving at the flagstaff, the Royal carriage, escorted by the Staff in attendance, passed slowly along the line. The regiment of German Light Infantry were the first inspected, then the Rifles, composed principally of the same nation ; then the Swiss, 1,000 strong, who were brought by rail to the camp in the morning from Dover ; and, lastly, 500 recruits who bad arrived from Heligoland on Wednesday night. Returned to the flagstaff. the Queen and Prince alighted, and the march past immediately commenced. Toe Rifles, in their dark green uniform, defiled first in open columns of cora panies ; then, in the same order, and in the new uniform of our line, the German Light Infantry, the Recruits, and the Swiss. The latter step out like our men, while the Germans point the toe and tread with the heel more formally. As they passed it was curious to see the eyes of each company intently fixed upon the Queen, in stead of looking straight forward, as is rigidly required in the English service. They marched with great steadi ness and with a certain practised air, which showed at once that the bulk of them were old soldiers. The Mini 6 has been served out to them, and in all points of equip ment and pay they are placed on exactly the same footing as our own troops. It is said that they are highly delighted with the service and with the treatment which they re ceive. At the close of the defile Baron Stutterheim Colonel Wolrige, and the other officers of brigades and regiments on the field, had the honour of being presented to her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert. Her Majesty and the Prince then crossed the Parade• ground on foot, and carefully inspected one of the huts of the German Light Infantry Regiment. These huts hold 24 men, like those at Aldershott, but are vastly superior to them in every respect. They are better lighted, better ventilated, more substantially built, bet ter supplied with conveniences of different kinds, and less liable to destruction by fire. Their comfort, taken in connexion with the fine site of the camp, and the ex kilarating sea breeze which blows in over it, will doubt less long make our foreign auxiliaries remember with pleasure the time spent by them on the heights above Saudgate. In the officers' messroom of the German Light Infantry the royal visitors and their suite partook of sumptuous luncheon, prepared for them in excellent style by Mr. Breach, of the Pavilion Hotel, Folkestone; This over, they took their departure, loudly che_er:gain were they left the ground by the troops, who drawn out in line on the north side of the c*p to r receive e them. The route bark to Folkeston e and t h en ce to of the same Portsmouth was marked by a reliet itl :s i n the morn loyal enthusiasm which had been dis p i nt h at 6.40 p.m., ing.
