Having in a great majority of instances no means beyond those afforded by the practice of their profession, medical men hesitate to enter a service in which, however honourable and desirable in many respects, the small remuneration allowed them is notoriously insufficient for maintaining their proper standing, or enabling them to associate on terms of equality with their brother officers. " That while the assistant-surgeon, having first arrived at the age of 21, must have also undergone a long and expensive course of professional study previous to assum ing the subaltern rank allotted to him—one wholly un worthy of the dignity of the profession to which he be longs—the executive officer may, without any special preliminary education, join the army at a very early age, and, within the short period of two years, attain a rank for which a medical officer can become eligible only after a lengthened period of service. "That the much more rapid promotion of executive than of medical officers during time of war implies also an undeservedly low estimate of the exertions of the lat ter, who share the dangers of battle, privation, and cli mate, and are exposed to additional risk of life from constant intercourse with the wounded and diseased, but, unlike their fellows, reap from their services, however distinguished, neither advantage nor reward, in conse quence of the long period of service enjoined by the `re gulations' before promotion. " That promotion appears at the present time to be conducted on no definite plan, and is not regulated, as it should be, by consideration, of merit, seniority, or ser vices in the field. "That the ill-defined nature of the duties of assis tent surgeons is not only open to objection, but their being required to combine the functions of dispenser, dresser, and clerk with those of physician and surgeon is incom patible with, and unworthy of, their true positien. "That under ordinary circumstances medical officers are denied the leave of absence desirable for professional improvement and other purposes. "That the period assigned for the retirement of meci cal officers is unnecessarily prolonged, exceeding that of other officers actually by one-fourth, and virtually by one-half. "That your lordship's memorialists cannot fail to re gret that the augmentation of the army shoold have failed to accelerate promotion in the medical department alone, in consequence of the introduction of civil prac titioners to the posts of authority and emolument thus created, to fill which your lordship's memorialists hum bly consider the permanently appointed members of the department not only better entitled, but from their knowledge of the peculiarities of military practice even more comp e t ent - and believe the adjustment of the various causes of objection above detailed could not fail at all times to attract to the regular channel of the de partment a sufficiently large number of the most highly gif ted and accomplished of the profession to render in any future emergency all extraneous aid unnecessary. " Your lordship's me mor i alists therefore humbly pray " That the pay and rank of assistant-surgeons be in- I creased. " That five years be th 4 maximum, instead of at pre sent the minimum, service required for promotion, and that the substantial recognition of service in the field, so lib era lly bestowed on military officers, be extend e d to assistau t.s urg " ri g ' whose services are not less onerous or deserving." That the professional experience gained in so wide a and which no length o f home field of observation as that afforded to those who have served in this campaign, service could have supplied, be duly consid ered in the regulation of promotion. "That medical officers be relieved from the duties of dispenser, dresser, and clerk, and that c om petent per acaphe appointed to discharge those functions. ' That the leave of absence hitherto denied to medical officers during ti me o f peace b e a ll ow ed them on proper occasions. "That the length of time occupied in preliminary education, amo un ti ng i n most instances to not less than five years, be taken into account in regulating the period of service required of medical officers previous to retire ment.

P. Gipps, Esq., the Recorder, for attempting to incite Christian Schmidt and Gustav Lohinann, two privates of the British German Legion, to desert. Mr. Poland and Mr. Biron, instructed by Mr. Ewd. Watts, of Ilythe, on behalf of the solicitor to the Trea sury, appeared for the pro.ecution. The prisoner, who came down from . London, and who appears to be a per son of good address and education, speaking the language of Prussian Poland, and strongly suspected of being a native of Russia, was not defended ; and as neither he nor the witness spoke English, Mr. Seeley, from Lon don, attended as interpreter. The learned Recorder, in his address to the grandjury, called their serious attention to the case by adverting to the very grave nature of the offence at this time, when the country required the services of every soldier sho could obtain ; likewise to the fact that each soldier in this legion had cost the country more than 161., and that the practice of inducing to desert had, he regretted to say, become frequent in the neighbourhood. It appeared from the evidence of Christian Schmidt that be and his comrade, Gustav Lohmann (who was pre vented from attending the trial by serious illness, which was proved to the court by the evidence of the surgeon to the legion), had met the prisoner at a public-house in Hythe, when " be represented himself to them as a Ger man exile, and wished them to go to London with him, and that once there, they would be all right." The prisoner's defence was that he was drunk, which, however, was afterwards disproved by his own statement in defence. Upper Deck Ditto Main deck Ditto Qnarter deck Pivot gun Ft.

The steam transport Urgent, from Portsmouth, with troops for the Mediterranean, which put into Plymouth leaky on Monday, has been under repair in the Sound. A. quantity of coal has been taken out, and a detach ment of soldiers transferred to the Endymion hulk. The Urgent was appointed to sail ye s t er d ay a f ternoon, but, as the weather was stormy, it is not probable that she will start before to-day. The weather was thick and dirty, with a smart breeze from south-west. The Patina was under topgallant sails and reefed topsails, close hauled, bead about north west. The Charles C. Fowler was under all sail, head south-east ; she carried away all her headgear, cotwater, bowsprit, and forstopgallant mast; lost jib, flyi ng jib, and fore staysail ; split foretoprnast staysail and fore sail ; carried away windlass, &e., and was cut down to the rnaindeck, taking away the topgallant, forecastle, and deals stowed forward. In consequence of heavy weather they were obliged to unshackle and let go 15 a.thoms of chain and an anchor, and on the 19th she shipped a heavy sea, which washed away a l a r g e p art of the remaining deck load. September 26—Passed the brig Vesper, of Greenock, 19 days out, from London for St. John's, and on the 29th, th e ship Hampden, of St. John's, steering E.S.E. The Saxon, screw transport No. 212, Robert Burn, roaster, put to sea yesterday from Woolwich Arsenal, for the Crimea direct, with guns and ammunition, ambu lance-and hospital carts, and huts, in charge of two sap pers, for the troops of the Turkish Contingent there. The Amity, No. 177, screw transport, 605 tons bur den, and 70-horse power, arrived at Woolwich yesterday, t ) load for the Ease. CHANTILLY RACES. The Autumn Meeting at CitantillY is this year to oc cupy two days—Saturday and Sunday next. The run ning on Saturday is to be—the first Criterion Stakes of 1,000 f., for 2-yr old colts, for which 10 entries have been made ; the Constable's Stakes of 2,000 f, for horses of 3 yrs and upwards, for which there are 8 entries ; the Se cond Criterion Stakes of 1,000 f., for 2-yr old fillies-8 entries ; and the Emperor's Stakes of 10;0001. for horses of 3-yrs and upwards—entry 500 f. --10 entries. A match for 3,000 f. is also to come off between M. Aumont's 2-yrs old Nat, and M. Joachim Lefevre's 2-yrs old Aranthus. On Sunday the Stakes to be run for one— the Haras of 4,000 f., for 4-yr old horses, for which there are 11 entries ; the Great Criterion of 2,000 f. for 2-yrs old colts and fillies-14 entries ; the Sylvia of I,ooof. for horses of 3 yrs and upwards-9 entries ; and the Omnium Handicap of 4,000 f., also for horses of 3-yrs and upwards—for which, after deducting 20 horses that have paid forfeit, there are 34 entries. Each day's business is to commence at half-past one o'clock. The best way of reaching Chantilly is to take the Northern Railway to St. Leu. Visitors will arrive in time for the races, by leaving Paris before 10 in the morning, and they can return by an early hour in the evening. The jury found the prisoner guilty. The learned Recorder (after informing the prisoner that, although only a misdemeanour in law, the offence was a very serious one, and that, in consequence of its being the first conviction under the act, and the prisoner hav ing already been ten weeks in confinement, the sentence would be comparatively lenient) sentenced hint to tbrte calendar months' imprisonment, but he (the learned Re corder) wished the prisoner and others most distinctly to understand that in any future conviction a much heavier sentence would be passed, in order to make an example of all persons in anywise found tampering with her Ma jesty's troops. In consequence of some want of completeness in the screw transport Queen of the South, that vessel did not sail from Southampton for Plymouth yesterday, as in tended. It is now stated that she will leave to-day. The William Jackson, transport No. 93, Capt. Hunt, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from the East. She Railed from Balaklava, July 31; Constantinople, Aug. 8 ; Gibraltar, Sept. /4 ; she did not call at Malta. She brought 94 military invalids, all wounded men (most, of th e m in the wnsuccessful attack on the Redan o n th e 13th of Juno), whom she embarked at Balaklava. Capt. Tinley, of the 21st Regiment, came home in military charge of them ; and, Assistant-Surgeon Tippetts, of the 16th Lancers, in medical charge ; Staff-Surgeon Cullen and Hospital dresser Bennett also were passengers. YACIITING. ROYAL MERSEY YACHT CLUB. LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY. The members of this club dined together on Monday last, being the end of the yachting season, at their marine station, opposite Liverpool, on the Cheshire shore. The dinner was numerously attended. The chair was occupied by Commodore Littledale, supported by the rear commodore and several other offi cers and members. The business of the evening was commenced shortly after eight, and the proceedings arranged by the hon. secretary. Mr. Bousfield and Mr. James Walker were ballotted for and elected members. It was resolved, " That the annual club ball be held as soon as arrangements can be made, and that the pro ceeds be given to a local public charity." Some discussion took place respecting the part the yachts are to take in the marine excursion of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge on his visit to Liver pool on the 9th inst. It was arranged that the commo dore, vice commodore, and rear commodore do make such arrangements as they may think desirable, and when decided upon the same be communicated to the yacht owners. THE CHAIR OF MEDICINE.—EDINBURGH.—The elec tion of a Professor of the Practice of Physic in the Uni versity of Edinburgh, in room of Dr. Alison, resigned, took place at the meeting of the Town Connell there on Tuesday. There were eight candidates in the field, of whom three were nominated —namely, Dr. Benrett, Professor of the Institutes of Medicine in Edinburgh University ; Dr. Alexander Wood, of Edinburgh ; and Dr. Laycock, of York. On the first vote there were, for Dr. Bennett, t ; for Dr. Wood, 12'; and for Dr. Laycock, 12. On the second vote Dr. Laycock was preferred to Dr. Wood byl7 to 15, and was accordingly elected, The Rosalind, schooner yacht, has sailed for Dublin, to lay up for the winter. The Ariel, schooner, has arrived from Beaumaris to lay up for the winter season at Birkenhead Docks. The Cymbra, Miranda, Coralie, Zilla, Mirage, Blue Belle, and several others, are still afloat. It is considered that the season of 1855 has been a very pleasing and prosperous one. 'Some excellent watches hue takip place, and many online% NEW PIERS AT WOOLWICH. To facilitate the embarkation of rear material, from the Arsenal•wharf at Woolwich, two wooden piers are in the course of being constructed, and will extend as far 53 the moorings of ships of heavy tonnage. The first was commenced about three weeks since, and is nearly completed. It is supplied with one of Captain Boxer's shoots for receiving shot and shell on board with ra pidity. Vast piles of Ordnance stores in the Ars , :nal• yard are again accumulated, and guns of various descriptions are constantly arriving there. The officers of the Royal gun factory are proving from 10 to 18 guns daily, yet few shipments of that material zire taking place for the present. The superintendence of the transport service has been consolidated with the storekeeper's office there, as being more appropriate to that department. .ROYAL ARTILLERY. WOOLWICH, OCT. 4. The undermentioned General Regimental Order has been issued from the Adjutant-General's Offic e , v i z. Her Majesty has pleased to sign the following THE HEREFORD MURDER. HEREFORD, Wednesday Night.—An inquest was held this evening before Peter Warburton, Esq., and a highly respectable jury, on the body of the unfortunate woman, Priscilla Morgan, who died from wounds inflicted on her by some navigators employed in the construction of the sewerafle works in this city. The body presented a shocking eight, the face being one mass of bruises ; the left eye had the appearance of being beat in, and the skull at the back of the head was fractured ; besides which she appears to have been kicked severely, the front teeth being knocked out and the jawbone injured. The names of the men at present in custody are Ro bert Scott (foreman of the works), John Wilson, Henry Williams, Thomas Ford, and Charles Smith. From the evidence of several witnesses, it appeared that the prisoner Wilson was on Saturday night at a house of ill-fame in Bowsey-lane with a girl named Han nah Downes, who rifled his pockets, and decamped. He got up to follow her, and missing his boots and jacket commenced hallooing for them, when the man and wo man who kept the house proceeded to expel him from the premises. He resisted violently, and dragged them both down stairs into the street, where several neighbours, and also six other navvies, were speedily attracted to the spot. Holmes, the man who kept the house, was dread fully kicked by the navvie s, but was rescued by a power ful labourer named Watkins. The deceased, who lived next door to Holmes, was endeavouring to persuade the navvies to leave, when she was struck a tremendous blow on the cheek with a rolling pin by one of the party (whose Iname is supposed to be Whitelock) ; she fell i backwards, her head striking against the flags, and was picked up insensible. She died shortly afterwards in the infirmary. The inquest was adjourned till Friday (this day). 1 A large reward is 'offered for the capture of Whitelock and two others, who are now at large, and to capture 4 whoa every endeavour: is being pude.

LATEST FROM GIBRALTAR. By the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam ship Iberia, which arrived at Southampton yesterday with the Peninsular mails, we receive the following items of naval and military intelligence from Gibraltar : —The British steam-transport Alice Jackson, from Lon don, with medical stores for Scutari, and the Rajah, from Woolwich, with shot, shell, &c., arrived at Gib raltar, en route to the East, on the 19th ult. The Hansa, Alice Jackson, and Faith, steam-transports, sailed for their destinations on the 20th. The British steam-transport Sydney Hall, with shot and shell from London for Balaklava, left Gibraltar on the 21st ult. Her Majesty's steam-ship Sanspareil, with supernu meraries for ,the Black Sea fleet, reached Gibraltar en the same day. 100 men belonging to Captain Christie's company of Royal Artillery embarked on board the Sanspareil for conveyance to the seat of war. Second Captain Govan and Lieutenants Porter and Sandham proceeded with them. One serjeant and 30 gunners were compelled to remain behind for want of room. The Sanspareil sailed on the 22d ult. The Gibraltar Chro nicle, in speaking of the embarkation, says : "A finer body of men, to every appearance, could scarcely be selected, many wearing two or three good-con duct badges, and no doubt they will prove a valuable acqui sition to this arm of the service in the Crimea. All of them seem to be animated with the beat spirit. On leaving the Governor's Parade, where the men had previously been formed in heavy marching order, an immense concourse of spectators accompanied them, cheering the whol e of the way until they arrived at the New Mole-quay, where the Bustler steam-tug was in attendance to convey the artil lerymen on board the Sanspareil." The steam-ship Meander, with shell and wooden huts, left Gibraltar for the Crimea on the 21st ult. The Ed win Fox, sailing transport, put into Gibraltar on the 20th ult., for water, fresh provisions, &c., with 153 in valids from different regiments from the Crimea, 1 con vict, 1 deserter, and 1 woman, in charge of Lieutenant Scott, 55th Foot, and under the medical care of Assist ant-Surgeon Poppelwell, 13th Light Dragoons. The Edwin Fox sailed the following day for Portsmouth. The steam transport Hamburg, in eight days from Wool wich, with powder, shot, &c., arrived at Gibraltar on the 22d. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam ship Ripon, in five days and a half from Southampton, arrived out at Gibraltar on the same day, on her voyage to the Crimea, with troops, &c. She proceeded the same afternoon. Her Majesty's steam troop-ship As sistance, from Liverpool, bound for Balaklava, put into the Bay on the 23d for water, fresh provisions, &c. The Black Diamond and Jarrow steam transports, from Lon don, with shot and shell, reached Gibraltar on the 25th, and, after coaling, proceeded to Balaklava. CAUTION TO VISITORS AT THE BRITISH MUSEUM.— Numerous robberies have of late been perpetrated at the British Museum and other places of public resort, by elegantly attired wom e n, a ided by male accomplices,who act as foils and receive the produce of their nefarious dexterity. Yesterday Miss C. Munns, residing in Bap d on -square, visited the Museum in the company of her sister, and was robbed of her porte-monnaie and a small sum in gold and silver. On her companion being made own t property, o her awa re of her loss, she felt her pocket to be assured of the and found her purse safe ; but great chagrin, she discovered the contents, which were con s id era bl e, h a d b een ab stracted, and the p urse re p l a c ed in an empty state. On the same day Mrs. Theakston, a wid ow lady from Ramp' security soon oafterwards, her stead, lost a valuable watch and a photographic portrait set in gold. She perfectly well remembers being incon veniently pressed by the crowd, but the apparent re spectability of the parties near her allayed all suspicion of any Oyil design. The police are keeping a strict look out. et lb Country Markets. DERBY SMITHFIELD.—OcT. 2. A good average supply of fat beasts, but the number of buyers was not so large, no doubt owing to Nottingham fair being held at the same time.
