SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—We r.tivn to the subject of the pro ! raised, or threatened, importation of American wheat via Cv.nada, having found, on looking back to the recent debates in the Canadian Parliament on that subject, confirmation of the views which we have already pi esented to our readers We find that, in the Committee on the Bill for imposing the duty on American wheat, Mr. Harrison, one of the Government officials in the province, stated that there had been further instructions received from the Celocial-office, since the published dispatch of Lord Stanley, stating eze wishes of the Home Go vernment that a duty on Amei ican wheat should be imposed at the Canadian frontier. Accordingly the Governor sends a dispatch to the Provincial Nrlia ment proposing the measure "in obedience to - the wishes" of the Horne Gavel ament. Coupling this ex press intimai n whh Load Stanley's dispatch of the 2d March, in which the imposition of such duty was stated as a sine qua non, preliminary to the farther reduction of duties on Canadian (American) wheat in this country, it is impossible to avoid the con clusion that the Home Government stands still more distinctly pledged to that farther reduction than even appeared on the face of Lord Stanley's dispatch. It appears that the Act of the Canadian Parliament was adopted on an express recomm3ntlafion from the Home Government, following on Lo r d Stanley's dispatch, whiCh . hal held oat hopes of ad missio 1 at a nonainalgduty here, in cise such an Act should be adopted. It would seem, then, that there is no loophole left ; that an express pledge can be -pleaded.by Canada, as having afforded the sole motive which could have induced her to tax American wheat at her own frontier. The tax has been imposed by Canada, in consequence of that pledge having been given. The measure would not have been passed so quickly, but from the necessity which was urged by the official men for passing the measure duting the recent session of the Canadian Legislature, or the Home Govern ment ,would not be able • to carry out their pledge during . the ensuing session of the ; Imperial Parlia ment. Lord Stanley, in his dispatch, took credit with the Canadians for the push downwards which the present Government were making in the sliding scale, as regarded Canadian wheat. As a pre-requisite condition to a farther push down wards, he pointed out the imposition of a duty by the Canadians themselves. We have shown that subsequent instructions to the Governor. General expressly recommended that imposition. The condition has been fulfilled, and the Canadians have thereby entitled themselves to an equivalent reduction here—that is to say, to admission at a nominal duty. Such a relinquishment of Imperial duties, on such a condition, the Kingston Chronicle (Canadian) remarks as unprecedented. "This is the first time," it says, "that the Imperial Government has given up to a co lony the duties it thinks proper to impose in England on colonial imports, for the regulation of its own trade." We have already pointed out to the landed Corn-law Leaguers that this is a step towards the in evitable result of an open corn trade with America —a main bugbear of their apprehensions, during the discussions of last session. STANDARD.—The addition which we are this day able to make, to the mass of Oriental news pre sented in yesterday's paper will afford to our readers all the information that can be / obtained, and nearly all that can be desired, as to the triumphant progress of the British arms in the East. Had any one had the power to execute a wish, formed by his own mind upon the most careful consideration, he could scarcely, if the wisest of men, have varied in circumstances the actual termination i in s ; but u of the wars in Chi na an d Aff g h an i stan. At first most of unh arranged sawtotuhleddpeesrifirebdyyeg ti thatonf olt t o he iira su no b inl j t e a lt ao s l i n dispute m st bid h e a se db s ee t render of little value any arrangement antagonists only by diplomatic guarantees, the prevailing character of the East renders the cont es t of diplomacy as important in influence as the contest of arms, and, as respects the moral consequence, a contest most - Unfavourable to honest men. The genius, and, if we may abuso the word, the heroism of desperate treachery is at this day as much respected in. Asia as they. were in southern Europe in the days of. Pope Alexander the Sixth and " Ferdinand the Catholic"—as much respected as the valour and skill of William 111., Marlborough, and Nelson, have been with us in a later age. Whatever diplomatic atrangement could be made would probably be to our disadvantage, would certainly be represented as such ; and in a part of the world where trickery and fraud are prized as the highest accomplishments, would give to our antagonists the augmentation of power that always follows an opinion of success. Again, we might hastily desire that the enemy had yielded without resistance : but hero, too, the treachery and artfulness of the Oriental character would take from such a submission much -of its value to the victors ; it would be thought that the submission had been made from policy, not from an overbearing necessity, and the opinion of the ulterior power of those who made it might remain unshaken. But the actual result of the two wars proves that all the resources of Oriental policy and Oriental strength or valour must prove inadequate to a successful con test with Great Britain. The craft of our enomies has been turned aside by a bold straightforward determi nation—this they themselves felt before they tried the hazard of war ; and their military force, collected and concentrated for vital efforts, has been dissipated by the British bayonet like chaff be fore the tempest. They have had proof that their utmost efforts, whether in policy or in war, can avail nothing against us—proof which they could not have had but for the circumstances under which the hosti lities. have closed. - It only remains to show that we can be as just and moderate in the relation of friends and neighbours, as we have been irresistible in arms, and the peace of the British empire in Asia will be for ever secured—an achievement which we are so sanguine as to believe not only possible; but, under a Government like the present British Government, even certain. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is 10 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 1044. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 40k, and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 573-, it follows that gold is 0.68 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from llamburgh, the price of gold is 4304 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 71, and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 10, it follows that gold is 1.03 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 1064 per cent., and ° the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 3.32 per cent. against England ; but the quoted exchange at New York being for hills at 60 days' sight,, the interest must be deducted from th e absve difference. The intelligence, both from China and Affghan istan, has, as might natur a lly b e ex pe c t e d, pr o duced the highest satisfaction among the merchants and others who have any interest whatever in the com mercial and political aspect of affairs in the East. The doubts expressed yesterday at the coffee-houses and other places of City resort are now entirely re moved. Indeed, in the first instance, however scep tical they might feel as to the news being genuine, it was rather because they thought the China treaty " too good to be true," than that they had any sub stantial reason for disbelief. The terms of the treaty were so explicitly stated yesterday, were so circum stantial, and bore such an appearance of truth, that they even counteracted the strong disposition to doubt. All this sort of doubt, which scarcely pre vailed among the better informed, is now at an end. The conclusion of a peace with China, from more considerations than one, must have a beneficial effect upon the trade with this country. Ia the first place, the ruinous speculation in the leaf, the great export of the Celestial Empire, the chief consumption of which is in this country, will now cease. This spe culation has been entirely sustained by the interrup tion to the trade occasioned by the war, which having terminated, business will return to the state in which it was prior to the commencement of hostilities, un less indeed the favourable terms of the treaty lead to an increase in our supplies hitherto unprecedented This will be a vast benefit in a commercial point . - Jf view, for besides thq unsettling of the trade in the ar ticle, which has ended in the absolute ruin of many speculators, including several persons of the highest respectability, the disturbed condition of the market caused the consumer to pay a much higher pri ce than was customary. These evils will now be ob viated by the satisfactory termination of the war, and there will probably be the further advantage to the public of obtaining tea .at a lower price than has hitherto been paid. In the second place, the trade in our domestic manufactures will be greatly ex tended by the opening of the new ports in China, and the free intercourse established between two countries, the prejudices of one of which have here tofore prevented commerce from being carried on with anything like reciprocal advantages. In fact, this treaty is regarded as the precursor of a field of en• terr rise opened in Asia, which, up to the present, has not only been untried, but even uncontemplated. It was scarcely , hoped, desirable as it might appear, that any conc3ssion of territory would be granted, even in the event of a peace with the Celestial Empire, 'although it was thought that we might obtain com pensation for the expenses of the war, and the value of the opium, the destruction of which at first occa •sioned the interrupon of tranquillity. The Emperor, it appears, was very unwilling to allow the British to be too non the "Bohea country," at the port of Foc-choo-foo, which is a strong instance of his de termination to adhere to the old exclusive Chinese policy, and to prevent the opening of a trade with the interior. From the open expression of his caution in this respect, the value of a trade with tWs spot. mar be gathered. Amon the capitalists who have long had large amounts of money lying dormant in their coffers, the abundance being too great to allow of profitable employment, ,the. news has been received with the highest interest and..gratification. The absence of commercial activity, protracted in a great measure by the position of atri!irs in the East, has cau§ed the pletho;a. in , ..Ahe L inoney-market;' which has been- -so-. often a subject of complaint, and which the opening of new channels of such high impoti;ance will in a measure obviate. The Treasury, having its expenses ' reimbursed by the successive payments of the s2l,ooo,ooo—should no juggle be attempted by the Chinese authorities—will be relieved to a certain extent of the temporary embarrassments with which it has had of late to struggle. A" juggle " to evade payment of the sum specified in the terms of peace i 3 the only contingency that is dreaded, since no doubt is for a moment entertained of the resources of the Celestial Empire for the payment of a sum so insignificant compared with the supposed receipts of the Imperial Treasury. The current joke in the City on the subject of this payment is, that it decreases the probability of the Income-tax lasting beyond the pe riod first assigned for it by the Premier. On the whole, the intelligence viewed by persons of all classes, connected directly or indirectly with mercantile af- . fairs, has created a complete exhilaration in the me- tropolis. The public, who were prepared for a series of harassing disasters both in Affghanistan and on the Chinese coast, and were therefore apprehensive of a continued stagnation of trade, now suddenly look for ward to a new state of things, which they hope will repay the commercial world for the losses sustained during the last few years. POST.—A statement of tho prospects of the Great Western Railway Company, for the half-year ending December 31st next, has been drawn up, in anticipa tion of the actual Report to be submitted to the share holders-for that period, which appears to be highly favourable; and although the items of income and expenditure have, for the unexpired term, yet to be completed, the account is probably not far from the truth.

We have been on short allowance for nearly three weeks, and have on board to-day ten days' provisions at two thirds allowance per man, with the exception of flour, of which we have not an ounce. This, in ordinary times, would be quite enough, but we have been so miserably unfortunate with our winds, that I do not con sider it right to run the risk of starvation. I have desired Walsh to procure, if he can, two casks of beef and two of flour. H e will draw on you for payment if he can get all or any part of the above, which I will thank you to honour.

" Our passage up from St. Helena to the Cape Verds was a beautiful one ; every one was confident that, even with the usual run of luck, we should be in the docks by the 22d or 23d of October, whilst now it is much more likely to be a month later. We are now about 330 miles from the Lizard, a distance which we could run easily in two days ; but if we are to go on as we hwe done these five weeks, it will take us at least eight, and may be more, for the wind is very obstinate, east-north-east, and the barometer rising.

"My Dear Mother,—lt is with the greatest pleasure that I take this opportunity of writing a few lines to be ready to send ashore the first opportunity. In my last I told you that I expected to be with you the latter end of September or the beginning of October, which the Captain fully caldulated upon, but the fates are against us. We made a long and tedious voyage of two months and a half from Whampoa to Batavia, since leaving which we have encountered nothing but unfavourable gales and light winds for nearly four weeks. We have been on short allowance, but I have enjoyed very good health all along. Not so with the rest ; we have had about 20 on the sick list. We arrived at St. Helena on the 3d of Sept., when I was highly delighted to receive your letter, also one you wrote me last voyage.

If the present wind last I think we shall be in the Downs about Saturday morning, and in the East India Docks about IVednesday or Thursday. I will write imme diately on my arrival in London. I think I shall have to stay a day or two to make arrangements for next voyage, but will lose no time, you may depend, in hastening to ' canny Newcastle,' where I look for ward with great pleasure to meeting you all again in good health. I hope you will write to me on receipt of this, telling me how you have all been since I last heard from you. " I shall not close this letter till the pilot comes on board.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SLh\. would, through the medium of your Journal, call the attention of the people of England, and especially that of the dignitaries of the English Church, to the present situation and circumstances of the Rev. Dr. Wolff, whose name is alike familiar to the prince and the peasant in our own country; and who, during the long period of eighteen years, has travelled in the service of Christ through the burning climes of the East—the gloomy deserts of Arabia and Persia—the plains of Hindoostan ; the ancient land of Egypt—and among the half civilised tribes of Tartary and Affghanistan—this excellent man, whose feet have stood on Mount Zion, and whose tongue has proclaimed the glad tidings of salvation from the rising of the sun to the place of his setting, to Mahomedans, Heathens. and Jews—who has attracted the attention of the Bishops of all the Eastern and Western churches—who has stood in the presence of the Grand Mogul, and the Kings of Persia and Hindoostan, and whose great talents and merits have been acknow ledged by the University of Dublin, the Episcopal Church in America, and the Bishop of Exeter, who addressed him by letter in 1835,—having also attracted the notice of Mehemet Ali in Egypt, and Abbas Mirza in Persia—and who has eminently con tributed to the success of the Society for the Promotion of Christianity among the Jews, perhaps more than any other man—this same Joseph Wolff, notwith standing all this, is now condemned to spend his time and talents as curate in a country village, equally ob scure and insignificant, and is thus strangely neglected by the Church of England, and even envied by many of its clergy, on account of his curacy at High I loy land in Yorkshire. If the Church of England had distributed her gifts in proportion to the real greatness, the talents, moral worth, and services' of those who are the objects of her favour, Dr. Wolff would long' ago have been not a mere country curate in an obscure village, but the honoured pastor of a large and well-endowed church, if not in a far snore dignified situation. In the course of a well spent life Dr. Wolff has acquired all the Oriental and most of the European languages, and made himself acquainted with the theology of all religions, and during the time of his missionary labours has done and suffered more, per haps, than any other Christian Missionary, having often been in the most eminent danger of losing his life—now being bastinadoed—then sold for a slave in a strange and savage land—sometimes stripped naked, and more than once condemned to death—and now that his impaired constitution permits him no longer to endure such sufferings in the scenes of his former labours, and in the service of our ,Redeemer—to the disgrace of the Established Church of England be it said he: is altogether neglected, though never to be forgotten—fur, for many years to come, his name will be remembered with gratitude and admiration by mil lions of men.

LlONS.—Within the last twelve years Mr. Womb well has bred and reared within the United Kingdom, upwards of 130 lions. We have perused this volume with more satis faction than any of its predecessors, for, in the first place, it is less disgustingly egotistical, and, secondly, the anecdotal matter is more varied and entertaining. The authoress is so utterly un interesting a personage—notwithstanding her sublime opinion of herself—that we care to know nothing about her; but it is otherwise with her sketches and anecdotes of her illustrious contem poraries; these possess a charm which will keep her "Diary" green in public recollection when her " Evelina" and " Cecilia" are forgotten by all but trunkmakers and confectioners. In speak ing of Burke, whom she frequently met, After her emancipation from Court servitude, she con firms the testimony borne by others of his as sociates, as to the extraordinary, indeed, ungo vernable excitement he evinced, whenever the politics of the day were alluded to; and she men tions a whimsical anecdote of Charles Fox having one evening attended a meeting of the Literary Club, where four High-Church Bishops were " gathered together," who were of course horror-struck at the idea of being brought into surth close contact with an apologist of the French Revolution! Not the least entertaining portion of the present volume is devoted to accounts of those aristocratic advocates of monarchy, who, it may be remembered, emigrated from France in droves about the period •of Louis's execution. Among these was the Due de Liancourt, who with difficulty escaped from the Jacobins, and, on landing from a small fishing-boat at Hastings, went tothe nearestpublic-house, where, in, order to appear Englisk, hecalled for " une pot portere !" Being very thirsty, he drank this off at a draught, and then called for another, which he also dispatched in style ; but not beinc , suffi ciently habit ua t e d t o suc h a b everage , his Grace got dead drunk, which of course completed his resemblance to a free-born Briton! Madame D'Arblay tells this story with much unction. By the bye, she shines, in telling anecdotes of this sort, and relates with infinite humour the be haviour of the Duke of Clarence who, on one oc casion—it was George the Third's birth-day— rushed, half-seas over, into the room where she sat at dinner with that mean, snuffy, dictatorial German dowager, Madame Sell wel len berg(whom Peter Pindar has made such fun of in his " Lousiad") and insisted on the whole party getting drunk in honour of the day! Fortu nately for their credit's sake, the women ma naged to gain exemption, but their male com panions were so lustily plied with champagne by his Royal Highness, that they were soon placed in a condition which would have justified a Po lice Magistrate in exacting five shillings from them. This Madame Schwellenberg seems to have sat like an incubus on Madame D'Arblay's imagination. She was a selfish, irascible, domi neering termagant, who fancied that every one ought to submit unrepining to her caprices, and who, like most such people, was the veriest syco phant to her Royal mistress. Both these amiable creatures took snuff in prodigious quantities; both were blessed with astounding appetites— they could each have digested an ostrich—and were equally stingy in money matters. We be lieve, however, that the Royal Charlotte was the most avaricious of the two, though Mada me Schwellenberg b o re away the palm in point of ugliness. Of Jemmy Boswell, whom our au thoress met frequently in society, she invariably speaks with contempt and dislike. At first, we were at a loss to account for such decided aver sion ; but when we met with a passage in the Mary, where the King is represented as expressing his surprise to Madame D'Arblay that she was so seldom mentioned in" Boswell's Life of John son," we at once came to the conclusion that wounded vanity—for the lady, as her work shows, abounded in smooth, simpering self conceit—was at the battom of her dislike to James. In spite, however, of her would-be contempt for Johnson's truest friend, time—who is no respector of persons—is fast doing justice to both parties. Madame D'Arblay, with her heaps of common-place novels, is all but for gotten ; Boswell still lives, and will live for ever. And most deservedly so, for throughout his in imitable biography, he fairly divides attention with the illustrious Lexicographer; and we scarcely know which we relish most—the smart epigrammatic sayings, and sagacious aphorisms of the one, or time unconscious self-conceit, good nature, and exquisite simplicity of character that the other exhibits in every page. We quote the following extract descriptive of some of Jemmy Boswell's diverting peculiarities : The beautiful chapel of St. George, repaired and finished by the best artists at an immense expense, which was now opened after a very long shutting up for its preparations, brought innumerable strangers to Windsor, and, among others, Mr. Boswell. This I heard, in my way to the chapel, from Mr. Turbulent, who overtook me, and mentioned having met Mr. Boswell at the Bishop of Carlisle's the even ing before. He proposed bringing him to call upon me ; but this I declined, certain how little satisfac tion would be given here by the entrance of a man so famous for compiling anecdotes. But yet I really wished to see him again, for old acquaintance sake, and unavoidable amusement from his oddity and good humour as well as respect for the object of his constant admiration, my revered Dr. Johnson. I therefore told Mr. Turbulent I should be extremely glad to speak with him after the service was over. Accordingly, at the gate of the choir, Mr. Tur bulent brought him to me. We saluted with mutual glee ; his comic-serious face and manner have lost nothing of their wonted singularity ; nor yet have his mind and language, as you will soon confess. " I am extremely glad to see you indeed," he cried, " but very sorry to see you here. My dear ma'am, why do you stay ?—it won 't d o, ma ' am ! you must resign ! I'Ve can put up with it no longer. I told my good host the Bishop so last night ; we are all grown quite outrageous !" Whether I laughed the most, or stared the most, I am at a loss to say ; but I hurried away from the cathedral, not to have such treasonable declarations overheard, for we were surrounded by a multitude. He accompanied me, however, not losing one mo ment in continuing his exhortations : " If you do not quit, ma'am, very soon, some violent measures, I as sure you will be taken. We shall address Dr. Bur ney in a body ; I am ready to make the harangue myself. We shall fall upon him all at once." I stopped him to inquire about Sir Joshua ; he said he saw him very often, and that his spirits were very good. I asked about Mr. Burke's book. " 0," cried he, " It will come out next week : 'tis the first book in the world, except my own, and that's q coining out also very soon ; on ly I want your help. " My help?" " Yes, madam ; you must give me some of' your choice little notes of the Doctor's ; we have seen him long enough upon stilts ; I want to show him in a new light. Grave Sam, and great Sant, and solemn Sam, and learned Sain —all these he b a th appeare d over and ' over. Now I want to entwine a wreath of the graces across his brow; I want to show him as gay Sam, agreeable Sam, pleasant Sam ; so you mast help me with some of his beautiful billets to yourself." I evaded this by declaring I had not any stores at hand. He proposed a thousand curious expedients to get at them, but I was invincible. Then I was hurrying on, lest I should be too late. He followed eagerly, and again exclaimed, " But, ma'am, as I tell you, this wont do—you must resign off-hand ! Why, I would farm you out myself for double, treble the money ! I wi s h I h a d th e regula tion of such a farm,—yet I am no farmer-general. But I should like to farm you, and so I will t e ll D r . Bur ney. I mean to address him; I have a speech ready for the first opportunity. He then told me his " Life of Dr. Johnson was nearly printed, and took a proof-sheet out of his pocket to show me, with crowds passing and repassing, knowing me well, and staring well at him; for we were now at the iron rails of the Queen's Lodge. I stopped; I could not ask him in : Isaw lie heix pected it, and was reduced t o apologise, and I must attend the Queen immediately. He uttered again stronger and stronger exhorta tions for my retreat, accompanied by expressio ns which I was obliged to ch ec k i n their bud. But find again ing a had th e gate, ch andanc e s a o d r h e e n tlevrei would reads d s toed m p e p a in parte of his v ek.

ON THE HEALTH OF BOJJY.AND rtForbes Winslow, Esq., M. IL.e. S. ; London; uhor of " The Anatomy of Suicide," .sit'c.',ll_ 2)o j. - 8 1;0 . Renshaw, bct ca n b e of ns s h u aw Lo ndo n greater impartinice to our worldly comforts than the health of the b o d y and mind, and of the various bra nc h es i nto which it may be divided, there is none of greater interest or greater difficulty than that whi c h subject , 84 2 . ; treats of insanity or the. diseases of the mind. So limited are the data from which conclusions can be drawn, so refilled and abstruse the process by which any clear results can ,be arrived at, that until of late years it had lain comparatively neglected in medical science, as though hun# skill could do little or nothing towards curing such distressing affections. A person demented was considered as fit only to be at once removed from society, to herd With others in the same unfortunate condition as himself; and there to be tended and treated more like a . beast -of the field than a human being. Little or no inquiry was made into the causes that had in duced the calamity. Little* or nothing had been previously done to avert it. The mind was affected; the body was healthy, the common animal functions were performed with regularity, and so the patient was left almost to him self, to recover or not, as the case might be. Of late years, however, a most material change has taken place ; the treatment has been im proved; attention has been paid to the bodily health; and the result has been, if not a dimi nution in the number of cases of mental disease, at least a very great increase in the proportion of those who have been restored to the possession of their reason. These observations have occurred to us from the perusal of a work which has been recently published under the title of " Diseases of the Body and Mind," by Forbes Winslow, the author of " The Anatomy of Sui cide," and which consists of a variety of essays upon the subject of health generally, but more especially upon that which we regard as the most important, viz. insanity. to that branch the author appears to have chiefly devoted himself, and extensive experience, aided by acute ob servation, has enabled him to lay down many principles with regard to insanity, and particu larly as to the treatment of the premonitory symptoms, which we doubt not will, if attended to, check many an incipient case in the outset, and facilitate the cure of those which, either from neglect or the violence of their character, have advanced to what is commonly termed actual madness. The leading principle of the author is, that it may generally be traced to some de rangement of the bodily functions ; and that only by careful treatment for the correction .of that derangement, can any cure be effected. That such, however, %%ill be the result in most cases, and when it is but in an incipient stage that it may be altogether arrested, is proved by the author in a great variety of instances to which he refers. The essays on mental influ ence and the first indications of insanity, are those to which he would direct especial atten tion in reference to this subject; but all the essays abound in highly useful information and suggestions, and are so replete with fact and. anecdote as to make them suited to the general reader, besides being most valuable to the pro fessional practitioner. We give the following extract as a specimen of Mr. Winslow's work. It refers to the connection between suicide and bodily disease. Mr. Winslow observes : " The notion that the suicidal impulse is in the ma- ' jority of cases a purely mental act, unconnected with physical disease, has been pr o d uc ti ve o f t h e most melancholy and fatal consequences. Medical men, and the public generally, have, with a few exceptions, been too much disposed to consider this subject as one coming almost exclusively within the domains of the metaphysician. The bodily disease which almost uniformly gives origin to the morbid perversion of the natural instinct ofsclf-preservation ; has been over looked, and the unhappy person has been allowed, un protected, to end by his own hands his miserable existence. Where no disease is suspected, no remedy will be sought. Tell a man who has attempted to slay himself, that he is perfectly sane—that his judgment; is Sound—that his will is not perverted—that the impulse which drives him to the commis3ion of suicide is not associated with any deviation from corporeal health—and you inculcate ideas not only ildlacious, but most pernicious in their character and tendency. We might with as much truth tell a person playing with a lighted taper at the edge of a barrel of gun powder, that his life is not in jeopardy, as to say to a person disposed to cut his throat, blow out his brains, poison or hang himself, that he is in the perfect enjoy ment of health, and requires no moral or medical treatment. It may be laid down as an indisputable axiom, that in every case of this kind, bodily disease may, upon a careful examination, be detected. I never yet saw a case where a desire to commit suicide was present, in -which there was not corporeal indisposi tion.--' Instead of inculcating the notion that this morbid propensity is independent of material lesion, it should he our constant endeavour, and, in fact, it is our duty, to establish the necessity of obtain ing medical advice directly the idea of self-destruction takes possession ofthe mind. I have seen the most happy results ensue from adopting such a course of procedure. Patients have consulted me, complaining of being haunted by a desire to kill themselves, and I have in variably found them to labour under latent physical disease. To know ourselves diseased is half our cure,' is a wise maxim when applied to this su bj ec t. It ought to be our obj ec t t o p ersua d e th ose so unhap pily afflicted, that the unnatural propensity is but the consequence of physical ailments, which are amenable to those medical principles which direct the practi tioner in the treatment of other diseases. We. ought t aoci e t fam h n itnie e t omp: . vr e Npeav ff udhc H e lte c sii e n-e t f to diffuse through society generally the notion that i is a matter of essential importance, that the patient whose mind is haunted by the idea of suicide should abdominal i yl ascertain csis i )iiinhotfievoreszoeolntlp:uradnes should l seaobei dt , uacellodi s l f u ln, Nenfiah, isaillc, informed ec et aera an disorder, epned l elt i toemltnl apparently er s ashe e Nujitvu l t nenunfhhi judgment his sa l a shnitmf:telees rees.raotnl Tilo:3 uncontrollable afe:thil medical scaheeiata:l isrpys t ome r hi nboybeaeni physician, sl suicidalil d description,r haeltsloierbethienrgeubiree d co h n ito ge . stio ln n otifiethnel majority o ra r ° l o va pre sent in this class of patients.

The history of Lord Glenallan's family, and the circumstances relat ing to the birth of Evelhie Neville, are at pre sent involved in mystery, but appear to be gra dually clearing up, through the instrumentality and evidence of Elspie the beldame, Edie Ochil tree, and the pains-taking inquiries of Mr. Old buck.

ATTEMPT TO RAISE A CHURCH RATE AT LEIGH. — In accordance with a notice, a meeting of the rate plyers of Leigh and the neighbourhood assembled on Thursday last. After a preliminary address by the Vicar, showing that by legal enactment a rate was justly levied on all property, it was moved by Mr. Marsh, and seconded by Mr. Selby, that a rate of one halfpenny in the pound should be granted. An amendment was made that no rate should be allowed. but, for want of a seconder, was not proposed by the Chairman. Upon w hich, it was moved by the Rev. Dr. Harrison, of Atherton, that the meeting be ad journed to that day twelvemonths. This amendment was immediately seconded, and seemed, from the loud plaudits with which it was greeted, to be accordant with the feelings of the majority. The Vicar, however, refused to put the amendment; asserting, amid shouts of dis approbation, that, unless the motion for no rate was s econded, he should pronounce the rate of one-half pmny in the pound agreed upon. After much con Fusion and most d ec id ed indications of dissatisfaction, the Vicar vacated the chair. Mr. John Fletcher, or Leigh, was requested to take the chair. The amend ment was moved and carried, with only one disssent ing voice• aLcr whi c h th e mee ti n g dispersed quietly —Manchester Guardian. Id 3A or
