ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRWEA, with the View of distinguishing the Imaginary from the Real Sufferers under this disease, and Correcting of wide-spread Errors in relation to their Treatment and Cure. From the German of Dr. PICKFORD. 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 is itnown to English readers by his frequent practi cal contributions to German medical literatmo. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the nos-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 sower 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......

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful eon itiquenees resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any ather class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doabts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled; It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-i ndulgence, how these penalties racy be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, , And how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physibal infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate compiaints, which have untortunately been too generally confided to the oare of ignorant emoirics, who inflict Mat injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions. aqcVOUS DEBILITY may be had, price 2s, of Messrs.

Jackson, left Sheerness on Saturday for her cruising ground off the coast of Scotland, having completed her refitment for the season. - During the thunderstorm on Thursday last the electric fluid descended' over the Thunder floating battery, at moorings on the west shore abreast of the _dockyard, Sheerness, struck the mizonmast of that ship, and shivered her masthead to,pieces. Her Majesty's steam-transport Rhadamanthus, John Mara, Master-Commander,- has arrived at 'Woolwich with stores from Portsmouth. The hired transport Reaper, Ponald Crnikshaik, Commander, has sailed from Woolwich for the Crimea, with waggons, shot, &c. • The Adelaide steam-transport has also sailed - from Woolwich for the Black Sea,heavily laden with powder, shot, shell, ambulance waggons, hospital carts, and other stores. The building capabilities of Pembrokedockyard are to he enlarged by the construction of two new building slips, which, when completed, will raise the number to 14. Several of these are of very large dimensions, capable of taking the largest men of war. These works, with a new boat basin, are now being carried out, and the dry-dock is also being lengthened and widened so as to admit a heavier ship than hitherto. The sum of 26;000/. will this year be expended in these improvements. The erec tion of gasworks for the dockyard is immediately to be proceeded with, and the whole is to be ready by October, when the arsenal will he lighted by gas. The strength .of this establishment has of late, been much increased, and the utmost activity prevails. _ Several detachments of regiments serving in India ar rived on Friday evening at the General Hospital, Fort Pitt; Chathain, being invalids sent hoine for discharge: There are a few able • men among them ; these will join their depot's provisional battalion, Chatham garrison, to complete their time of Ser% ice.

The nndermentioned officers also came home in the ship : Lieutenant Peter Edward Quin ; 98th ; Surgeon Charles Hamilton Fasson, 14th Light Dragoons ; Assistant- Surgeon Bassana, 70th ; Major Whitelock and Dr. Fer son, of the East India Company's service. These troops embarked on board the ship Marlborough, Capt. Smith, on the 30th of March last, at Calcutta, and sailed the following day, and arrived at St. Helena on the 16th of June and received on board a detachment of invalids, consisting of 1 sergeant, 1 corporal, and 4 privates, one woman, and two children of the St. Helena Regi ment ; on Thursday they arrived in the Thames, and disembarked at Gravesend the following day. They brought home five military prisoners under various sen tences by General Court-Martials. During The voyage there were eight deaths, viz., Privates Mitchel and Kelly, Bth Foot ; Charles Puree], 35th ; Corporal John Ryan, Patrick Allen, Henry Sarrance, 52d ; John Porcer, 96th; C. Hangar, 70th; they died from phthisis and dysentery. The Royal Artillery has proceeded to Woolwich. Information has been received at Chatham garrison, of the arrival in the Channel of the 22d Regiment from India ; they are expected at Chatham daily. Another party of Russian prisoners has just arrived at Lewes from Portsmouth, consisting of four officers and four privates. They are all from the Crimea, and during the past week eight officers and as many men have thence arrived in Lewes. The officers are fine, powerful men, above the ordinary stature. They are all in lodgings in the town, and the privates are in the war prison. Large quantities of shell of every description, from 13-inch to the smallest sizes used, with mortars to match, are being made at two of the principal foundries in Liverpool. We regret to announce that telegraph intelligence has been received of the death of Lieutenant the Hon. E. Fitzclarence. Lieutenant Fitzclarence died on 'Wed nesday last, from the effects of his wounds, at the Eng lish hospital at Constantinople, to which place be bad been conveyed from Balaklava. The gallant deceased was serving as aide-de camp to his colonel, the late Co lonel Yea, and with him took part in the unsuccessful attack on'the Redan, on the 18th ult., where be was very dangerously wounded. He suffered amputation of the left leg and the right hand, which operations be bore with great fortitude, and at the date of the last' letters he was considered to be progressing most favourably, so that the receipt of the news of his death has occa sioned much grief to his relatives. The deceased was the fourth and youngest son of the late Earl of Mun ster, and was born on the Bth of July, 1837. He entered the 7th Regiment, as Ensign, in November, 1854, and in January last obtained his lientenantcy. In the spring he accompanied the depot of his regiment to the seat of war, and he had only been a few weeks before Sebasto pol when he was called upon to assist in the attempt on the Redan, MAZZINI ON THE WAR. July, 1855. My dear Friend,—You a* me why I do not express my opinions on the war. I feel disheartened. You seem to. in; to be fighting, like Ajar, in the dark ; only he Was praying for light—you have it shining on you from every side, and shut your eyes resolutely against it. You have been repeatedly warned. Men who do not claim any superior insight or power of genius, but who from their position, from the studies and events of a whole life, are entitled to know something of continental poli tical matters, told you from the beginning of the contest that Austria would never fight your battles ; that her only aim was to take possession of the Principalities; that by your obstinately pursuing the flying phantom of an alliance with her you were not only degrading your cause and losing all the sympathies of thegood and brave throughout Europe, but fettering your intellect, cramp ing your schemes, and turning the policy of your war from the only ground upon which you could rationally hope for victory, to a wild chase of impossibilities. All this has been subsequently christened into facts. Still, you remain inert, impassive, unshaken, bent on the same identical track—plunging deeper and deeper into a dark, hopeless region of dreams and deceptions ; whilst a single act of will would lead you back to the wide, easy, bright path, on which honour and victory must bless each step of yours. I see brave deeds, sufficient to redeem a whole fallen nation ; noble powers of action and endurance, displayed by your unknown demi-gods, your soldiers, and officers, in the Crimea ; but for what purpose and with what hope ? I bow before the quiet silent devotedness with which your nation accepts all the sacriiices inseparable from a war, and I• feel proud of loving and being loved in your own country but such devotion ought not to be in vain ; and as far as I can see, it is so. Owing to the policy %-; hien leads the War, you are fighting 'for an impossibility. The thought, unless indeed all practical sense has forsaken your nation, must be by this time, after nine months of efforts and deceptions, living and rastless within many souls ; still, none dams to give utterance to it. You are in your Parliament floating between one party aware of the difficulty-of your position, but draw ing from that knowledge a policy of cowardice, and another, fully alive to the supreme necessity of not with drawing from the contest before a decisive victory, but neither understanding, nor wanting to understand, how victory can be reached ; peace at any cost, even of honour, and war for war's sake ; the three words uttered by Mr. Roebuck remaining unsupported, echoless, a threatening prophecy to be remembered when it will be too late. Your adriiicistrative reform societies are sys tematically shunning the vital question, apparently aim ing at nothing else but at teaching people how to do cleverly the wrong thing. Your press, active, far sighted, bold, sometimes fierce, and, when combined, all-powerful concerning details and all second-rate matter, is silent about the problem—" Can Russia be conquered through the Crimea ?" Still that is the question. It is good and brave to die for one's own flag ; but it is, sad, unutterably sad and culpable to bid the best die a fruitless death, when more could be achieved. Martyrdom is in certain times and circumstances the sacred duty of the weak ; the strong are bound to conquer. Can you conquer, without a radical change in your actual policy? It is my deep conviction that you cannot. To believe that the succgss of a war rests on a ground of mere organisation and military-detail skill—that the directing policy has nothing to do with it—that, when you have comparative perfection of mechanical arrange ments and valour, you have conquered the most of fa vourable chances, is an immense mistake. I have wit nessed in 1848, in Lombardy, the rapid, progressive, un avoidable destruction of a certain triumph through a single fatal stroke of policy. There, on a land where a national movement bad sud denly taken place and swept the territory, the fortresses excepted, of all foes, from the Alps to the sea, a King stepped forward, with regular battalions, artillery, and resources twice equal to a conquered, disheartened, de moralised enemy, but with a different aim, the aggrandise ment of the House of Savoy, and with a monarchical tradition entirely antagonistic to the spirit and tendency of the movement. There was valour in the army, de votedness in the officers ; and a whole population glow ing with enthusiasm was backing the Piedmontese regi ments. The plan was obvious. The 30,000 Austrian soldiers who had fled to Verona and Mantua could never reconquer alone the lost ground. To prevent their being reinforced was the problem to be solved ; and the solu tion was easy. To arm the population and tell them— protect your houses ; to leave behind the fortresses ; to march to the Alps and establish there, on the points where the military roads link Italy with the Austrian empire, two camps of some 25,000 soldiers each ; to bombard Trieste, from whence the Austrians were draw ing all their supplies ; to rouse with an appeal to the Slavo-Illyrian nationalities all the eastern Dalmatian coast of the Adriatic—was undoubtful, cheap victory. But Trieste vas forbidden by diplomacy ; the Tyrol, I do not know by what old absurd rights of the German Confederacy ; to arm the population was out of the question ; for a people who fights its own battles is a very dangerous element to rising monarchies ; to protect the Venetian military roads was to strengthen the repub lican Government which had been proclaimed at Venice. And how could a Government, bent not on the creation of an Italian nation, but on the formation of a Pied montese kingdom of the North, raise a war of nationali ties ? Thus, all the truly strategic operations being ex cluded, the emancipating. war found itself forcedly nar rowed down to the regular siege of the fortresses. The Piedmontese army lingered before Mantua and Verona until a scorching sun, disease, irregularity of commis sariat supplies, and the demoralising discouragement always attending troops kept in comparative immobility, pointed out to a freely reinforced enemy an opportunity for overpowering it. A. wrong policy had destroyed all the chances of the war. Such must be the case in every war. Its method rests mainly on the policy which rules the councils of the nation—such is, and most strikingly, in your own. Had the policy of your Government been a liberal one, you would be now firmly established in the heart of your enemy's land, backed by the insurrection of a whole brave nation, and with a powerful germ of disorganisa tion, through desertion and revolt, at work in the ad verse army. A stroke of energy at the service of a principle would have given you allies on every point of Europe; and no despotic power would dare or be able to support Russia against you. We could pledge our word for that. By your declaring yourselves hostile to any national movement—by your courting during sixteen months the vilest of the despotic powers, Austria—by your re nouncing every moral aim, every noble aspiration, for a paltry and hateful programme of expediency, and status quo, you have deprived yourselves of the sympathies of all the good and brave throughout Europe —you have prevented a Polish rising—you have lost the alliance of Sweden—you have allowed free space and security to all German intrigues against you ; and renouncing all freedom of action, all free choice of places, means, and military plans, you have, like Charles Albert, in 1848, narrowed the war to a siege, on a spot which will be, I fear, henceforward named " the grave of England's honour and England's sons," The grave of England's honour and England's sons—the Crimea, at this period, can be but this. I confess I cannot understand the silent, obstinate' apathy with which your press, your meetings, your Par liamentari. men, are witnessing the sacrifice of thousands, without ever dreaming of asking themselves—Can vic tory—a decisive and permanent one, be obtained there ? I shudder when 1 read such words as those with which Lord Palmerston coolly assures the House of Commons that all losses will be met by new supplies of men. You had better decree at once that the youth of England shall be periodically decimated, for no other purpose than that of gratifying the military ignorance of Louis Na poleon, and withdrawing every source of alarm from the Austrian Government. A. Crimean expedition could in no case, I believe, lead by itself to a decisive success or to honourable terms of peace. Odessa, if you wanted to act from the Black Sea, was the point for you. Still, had you chosen the favour able moment and worked with adequate means—had you landed at once 100,000 men somewhere above Sebasto pol, and marched to Perekop, whilst your fleet would have got possession of the Straits of Kertch, Cape of Kezantip, and other points on the Sea of Azoff, the Crimea might have been yours, and you would have then fallen back on Sebastopol—thus deprived of all its communications with the continent. It was no doubt an important deed. But now, what is your hope ? What is your aim in systematically sacrificing your best men under the walls of a town which, in all probability, you will not take, and which, if taken, cannot give you what you want ? It is high time for you, I think, to look earnestly into the matter, and to see that England's forces, which Eng land may need at a not very distant period for her own protection against allies, are not lost in a hopeless contest. Cast a glance back on the war. You thought in the beginning—and it was the first fatal mistake—that you would frighten the Czar out of the contest with some 50,000 or 60,000 men placed at Constantinople, Galli poli, or Adrianople. When you began to perceive that a real earnest war was unavoidable, you turned to the Danube; there was your natural basis for offensive ope rations. Austria—it is now an established fact—forbade your acting there. You bowed to Austria, dismissed the thought at once, and gave up to Austria—the second fatal mistake—the Principalities. Forbidden the Danube, and not wanting to arouse, through Poland, the dreaded question of the nationalities, you decided upon adopting the Bonapartist scheme of a Crimean expedition. You landed with troops, material, and knowledge of the localities and of the enemy's forces utterly unequal to the object, near Sebastopol. You wanted to try the north, but found unforeseen and al most insurmountable obstacles, and through the most dangerous flank march possible, you turn to the south. You could not, for want of troops, invest the place ; you did not dream of preventing the accumulation of military stores and victuals which were coming from the interior of Russia and Siberia, down the Volga a nd the Don, through Rostof and Kertch, to Sebastopoti- But you simply established yourselves there, trust ing to chance, and despising the enemy---andin.ni en. you still are. Since then you have been dune ra .n i t_ danger--aYerted only through want of bolso _ _ Russian leaders, and heroic valour in your soldiers at Inkerman and Balaklava—of being driven back to the sea. Since then, you have lost the hope of an active alliance with Austria, lost the confidence of Europe, lost a considerable amount 4 money, lost (I speak of England alone) some 40,000 men, and won—some counter-approaching outposts erec t e d since your arrival. This is the summary of the past ; now for the future. Sebastopol—the besieged southern part is as strong as ever--the Russian army in the Crimea more strong than ever ; and, owing to the conduct of Austria, numerous fresh reinforcements are coming from the interior of Russia. You cannot dream of starving the enemy ; your expedition to the Sea of Azoff has come five or six months too late ; military stores and provisions equal to the wants of many months were already accumulated in Sebastopol. And the military road of the Shivagh, the road across the isthmus, the read leading from Simpheropol to Sebastopol through Baktchiserai, the road from the same town to the northern part of the be sieged place, are all in the hands of the Russians. You must then take the town by force. How many men will you have to lose in getting possession of the Malakhoff, of the Redan, and of the first line of defence ? How many in conquering the second line ? Suppose you do gain possession of the whole town how are you to keep it under the fire of the northern forts ? The ground there is much higher than on the southern site. The octagon fortress, called the Sievarna, the key of Sebastopol, according to Sir Howard Douglas, com mands town, bay, and docks. Its height protects it from the tire of your ships, its shores are precipitous. You most therefore attack it by land, thus finding yourself after nine months of exertions and sacrifices just before the obstacle from which you shrank at the beginning. Flow much time, how much English blood, will be re quirA to overcome it ? Can ,you feel sanguine after the experiments on the south ? And, then, the Russian farces. outside Sebastopol ? Tl. inner in number ; exhausted by victories which would undoubtedly prove like those of . Pyribus, you will then have to begin the true war, the Crimean campaign. There are Russi,:n forces, strong enough now, and which will he stronger still in a short while, on the right, at the two extremities of the Tchernaya ; Russian forces on the B.,lbelr, Russian forces in the proximity of Euratoria ; Russian forces under Wrangel, Montresor, Beliegarde, in the interior. Between those and through the steppes which from Simpheropol up to the isthmus spread over all the Crimea you will have to fight your way to Pere hop. On the steppes, no trees, no shrubs ; against the intense heat and intense cold an invading army is de fenceless : no resting shelter—the Crimea is more than thinly inhabited ; 10,000 English square miles and te nanted by some 200,000 inhabitants, and a few scattered villages of the interior will be burnt by the Russians. Water is there very scarce and saturated with salt. The winter sweeps the desolate land with overwhelming snow-storms : the warm season softens through the melting of the snows the ground to such an extent that the artillery will sink through it. No road tracks—the bridges on the ravines not strong, and easily destroyed. These difficulties you will say must work against the Russians, too ; yes, only the Russians are at home, they are used to them ; you are not ; you must conquer, they have only to defend ; every step in advance will leave you further from your basis of operations, from your supplies ; every step backwards brings them nearer to their own. A t the end of the Crimean steppes lies your objective point, Perekop. The Russians have been all this while fortifying it. Then should you conquer it and Russia not yield, three hundred miles of new steppes . . . Oae would say that the man who first planned the Crimean expedition wanted to solve this problem : how to sink in an apparently plausible enterprise the best blood of England, and make her defenceless for a time of need. Such are your prospects. How many thousands of men, how many millions of pounds are you disposed to engulph in their possible, not probable realisation ! People who are wanting deliberately to blind them selves and England, will talk to you of a probable ope ration through the Liman of the Dnieper against Kber son, and the naval arsenal of the Crimea, Nicolaieff. They forget Otchakow and Kilboroun, placed opposite each other at two and a half miles distance, and forbid ding the entrance of the Lagoon ; they forget that every place on the shores must have been by this time fortified by the Russians ; they forget that Nicolaieff is now the point where a reserve army of some thirty thousand Russians is formed. They will suggest an attack upon A.kerman ; and Ovidioplis on the Dniester ; they forget that there you would be faced by the Russians, and threatened on your flank by the Austrian army. Can you trust the Austrian army ? They will hint at a bold attempt against Perkope. How—by sea ? On the Azoff Sea it is protected by the Shivagh ? on the Black Sea your men-of-war cannot east anchor except at the distance of 20 miles. By land ? You must first fight, and conquer the campaign I spoke of some lines back. Unless you want to find yourselves prisoners, between the forces coming from the interior of Rus sia and those manoeuvring in the interior of the Crimea, you must destroy Wrangel and Bellegarde. With what, forces ? You have now, after all usual deductions made —and Turks and Piedmontese included-150,000 active men in the Crimea : probably less, certainly not more. Some 40,000, almost without cavalry, are at Eupatoria. Ilow many of the rest will you leave to push on the siege ? How many to guard Kamiesch and Balaklava ? No ! Unless you raise the siege ; unless you apply your energies to the only vulnerable point of Russia— Poland ; unless you radically change the policy ruling the war, you can do nothing but systematically and periodically perish in fruitless attempts before Sebasto pol. Russia is there now too strong for you. Will your Government ever spontaneously adopt a charga of policy ? Never. The men who had not one word to say in the name of England's honour when the Czar in 1848-9 invaded the Principalities and crushed Hungary, because his object was then to check liberty and national moverrents—the men who plotted with Louis Napoleon for restoring the Pope "under an improved form of government" at Rome—the men who can, during sixteen months, exhaust every form of servile complacency towards such a power as Austria, and, scorned, do not dare a threatening word—can ally them selves with despotic usurpers—they will never say to a nation, Rise ! Their policy lies between the despatch of the 23d of March, 1853, in which Lord Clarendon de clares that her Majesty's Government is anxious to avert the risks of any advantage being given to the European revolutionists, and the speeches of Lord Palmerston, branding the liberty of Poland as a dream, the future rising of Hungary as an untoward lamentable event. They may break their pledge with Sicily ; they will never break that which binds them to continental abso lutism. But that you, English citizens, who worship freedom and revere morality—you who have no pledge except to England's honour and safety—you who all to a man waved your hats at Poland's glorious rising and pro claimed its overthrow a crime, you whose brothers and sons are dying, the victims of a wrong policy, in the Crimea: whilst in Podolia and Lithuania they could conquer — you, the free and able, by a single resolute act of will, by a sudden energetic collective manifestation to compel, can sit quietly witnessing the slow, useless work of de struction, and trust your fates to men who, thanks to their policy and to Austria, are besieging, after nine months of operations, an outer work, is more than I can explain to myself or others. Every man who has a son, a brother, or a friend in the East ought to walk with a map of the Crimea on his breast and a flag with the name of Poland inscribed, from place to place, from park to park, from cottage to cottage, and preach and explain, until hundreds of thousands should peacefully but sternly signify their will. Change of policy. Down with Austria. Let Poland's rising be helped. And then you ought to kneel and thank God most humbly for having placed the easy accomplishment of a great act of justice on the very path which leads to English safety and success. But Austria! Prussia ! Leave Prussia to her own people; Austria to Hungary and to ourselves. As sure as Austria will never fire a single gun for you against you while we live. The question of the nationalities is amounting to a general war. What of that ? Will not the nationalities fight their own battles ? Only those battles will be yours too. With Poland, Hungary, and Italy up, the Czar cannot dream of marching to Con stantinople. Out of the road I point depend upon it there is no de cisive victory nor honourable peace possible for you. In a letter which I addressed to the chairman of the Society of the Friends of Italy, on the 2d of March, I said, " Your policy is absolutely wrong and immoral, there fore you cannot and will not conquer." I maintain my ground. War is for me the greatest of crimes, whenever it is not waged for the benefit of mankind, for the sake of a great truth to enthrone, or of a great lie to entomb. Yours is not such a war. It shrinks from the proclaiming of a principle. It equally aims at cur tailing despotic encroachments from the north, and strengthening despotism in the centre of Europe. It de clares that Turkey has a right to independence, whilst its policy and tactics are calculated so as to prevent any other country from asserting itself independent. I be lieve in God, and in a providential scheme ; and conse quently I do not believe in triumph crowning a war grounded on expediency, temporary self-interest, and antagonism to European rights and liberty. Czarism is a principle—the principle of u nbounded authority ; it is only a principle — that of naivea liberty—that can conquer it.—Yours f a ithfully, _ JOSEPH DIAZZINI.

The last Russian reports of the naval hostilities in tlifs Sea of Azoff are rather more complete than the aceoants which have been published officially . . this cOuntry.•-- Despatches had, indeed, reached the 'Ada iralbr from Sir E. Lyons and Lieutenant Hewett, cotinnaticang Fier Majesty's ship Beagle, from which it appears that on the 31 of July the large flats and hawsers of the flyless bridge connecting the Arabat Spit with the mainla d across the Strait of Genitchi were destroyed. This operation was performed with great spirit, for the Rus sians had lined ths beach with riflemen, and onr boas were riddled with balls at, a distance of from GO to 80 yards. The principal part in the achievement was per formed by Stephen Trewavas, an able-bodied seaman of the Agamemnon, and, by his name, a stout Cornishman, who cut the hawsers and sot the Go sting bridge adrift. The road across the ferry from Genitchi to Arabat is, therefore. interrupted, and we are not without hopes that the launches ef the ships may still be able to force the strait and enter the Putrid Sea. The Russians themselves appear to contemplate this contingency, for Prince Latasoff, who commands on that part of the coast, reports that the Tchongar-bridge has been pro tected by new fortifications—a precaution the enemy would hardly have takedif they had not been aware that the bridge can be approached by water. The Tchongar-bridge and the military road passing over it, to which we first called public attention some mouths ago, are accurately laid down in the map annexed to Mr. Darby Seymour's book on the Crimea and the Sea of Azoff ; and the point at which the road is carried for about 400 yards on piles across the lagune does not ap pear to be mere than 20 miles off the Strait of Genitchi From their first invasion of the Crimea the Russians have used these lines of communication. In 1737 General Lasci halted his army at Genitchi, threw a bridge over the strait, and marched along the Tongue or Spit of Ara bat. In this critical pcsition he learned that the Tartars mere prepared to dispute his passage at the southern ex tremity, where a small body of men might successfully oppose an artny. With great presence of mind he out through the tongue of land, on the one hand to cover himself from attack, and on the other he caused a sort of raft or floating br dge to be constructed between this Tongue of Arabat and the mainland, across which the troops passed, while the horses of the army swam ( r fire I the lagune. The Khan of Crim Tartary continued to await the approach of the Russian army at the lines of Or-Kapi or Perekop ; but Lasci again deceived his anta gonist, for having entered the Peninsula in this singular manner from the Spit of Arabal, he evacuated the coun try again by the- promoktory of Tehorgonn, showing th at even 120 years itAo military operations in the Crimea could be conducted by two lines of march independent of the isthmus of Perekop. The history of these early campaigns is by no means uninstructive, for it is certain that with means of transport far inferior to those now possessed by the allied armies the Russian generals suc ceeded in enterin the Crimea on several different points, and confounded the enemy by the rapidity of their un foreseen attacks. We now revert, however, to the recent operations, which have been imperfeciv described in the published despatches of the British 'Government. It is stated in the Russian accounts that on the 27th of Jane nine steamers of war appeared before Genitchi, and opened fire partly on the town and partly on the roads along the coast, where a convoy of salt was stopped and de stroyed. The fire was continued for some days, but it is stated, oddly enougb, that on the 29th of June vessels de tached from the squadron set fire to all the farms within 30 versts. We are at a loss to conceive how these ves sels could interfere with the agricultural pursuits of the inhabitants except in the immediate vicinity of the shore, and the report appears to be a loose and unmeaning one. On the 3d of July it is correctly stated that two boats came within about 60 yards of the shore ; but the Russian commander has omitted to add that they suc ceeded in performing the daring exploit of cutting the floating bridge adrift under fire, and that, instead of losing " three rowers and the man at the helm," this feat fortunately cost our brave fellows only two slight contusions. The immediate effect of these operations seems to have been to draw the attention of the Russians to this point on the coast, and we are informed that, " from arrange. ments made by Prince Gortschakoff, the detachment of Genitchi was reinforced by fresh troops, and the number of Cossacks of the Sea of Azoff placed with their boats at the disposal of Prince Labanoff was increased." We remark this passage, because it is the first time, as far as we know, that any allusion has been made in the Rus sian despatches to these Cossacks of the Sea of Azoff. These Cossacks are a branch of one of the clans of Za porogue Cossacks, who maintained their independence against the Czars of Russia until the last century, and were eventually destroyed by Catherine 11., who trans ported a portion of them to the frontiers of Circassia and the Sea of Azoff. They are organised under their Het man, not as irregular cavalry, but as a portion of the naval forces of Southern Russia. They pass for the best mariners of those seas, and they furnish about 30 well armed gunboats to the Imperial fleet, which were em ployed until last year in maintaining the blockade of the Circassian coast. When the allied squadrons forced the Straits of Yenikale and swept across the Sea of Azoff, we heard nothing of the maritime Cossacks to whom the navigation and defence of those waters is specially en trusted. It seems, however, that this flotilla was in some place where it escaped the observation of our cruisers, and where its services remain at the disposal of Prince Labanoff at Genitchi. We there fore are led to conclude, that if these facts are at all correct, these gun-boats of the Cossacke of the Sea of Azoff must have retreated to the Si wash or Putrid sea, where it was known that a considerable quantity of shipping took refuge when pursued by Captaia Lyons. If this be the fact, it serves to show that there must at least be water within the Strait of Genitchi to float some of our launches and gun-boats, and the prepara tions for the defence of the Tcbongar-bridge prove that the enemy anticipated an attack in that quarter. This hostile demonstration was, however, not persevered is at the time it was made, which is now fully four weeks ago, and more recent accounts from the fleet lead us to believe that the Admirals had collected the whole body of vessels of light draught in Kamiesh Bay, where it was thought that a coup de main would speedily be at tempted in another direction. Whatever may be the causes that retard the progress of the siege of Sebastopol by land, and cause the allied Commanders to postpone those field operations which are considered by all those military authorities who have investigated the subject, both abroad and at home, to be indispensable preliminaries to the reduction of the place, none of these reasons can affect the movements of the navy. It is obvious that the Admirals possess all the advantages which the undisputed possession of Se bastopol itself has heretofore secured to the naval power of Russia. They have a fleet, an army, and an arsenal at their disposal in so central a position that they can strike the enemy within a few hours on any point of the vast semicircle which extends from the mouth of the Danube to the mouth of the Don, and the terror inspire, by these sudden incursions would be greatly increased by the rapidity with which they might be made to succeed each other in different places. Indeed, large armies would be required to gar rison and defend so vast an extent of coast. The expe riment tried in the Sea of Azoff was completely success ful, but it has scarcely been followed up, and, with forces capable of achieving any exploits at sea, it is in credible how little has as yet been undertaken. We sin cerely hope that the time of these intermittent operations is nearly at an end. One scheme of a novel and peculiar character is men tioned in some of the last letters from the camp, which partakes of the character of a naval operation. The French have now carried forward the White Works on the extreme right until they reach the shore of the inner harbour of Sebastopol at Careening Bay. It has been suggested that, under cover of the French batteries, it may be practicable to construct and launch rafts carry ing heavy guns, after the fashion of the Lady Nancy, which did good service in the bombardment of Tagan rog, and that a small flotilla of this descriptidn may act with effect against the Russian steamers and some part of the defences. The expedient reminds one of the cele brated, but almost incredible, operation of Mahomet 11., when he brought his fireships and galleys at the siege of Constantinople into the rear of the Golden Horn ; but in the present instance, since the allies are in possession of part of the coast of the harbour, and will probably ere long completely occupy the Careening Bay, it is by no means impossible that some portion of our naval re• sources may be employed above the town. Naval and Military Intelligence. The launch of the screw three-decker Marlborough, 131 gun; will take place at Portsmouth dockyard to morrow between half-past twelve and one o'clock. Her Majesty signified her intention yesterday evening to the Port-Admiral of naming the ship herself. The steam-transport Hansa, No. 20f1, Capt. Geerken, arrived at Spithead from the East on Saturday after noon, and steamed into Portsmouth harbour in the even ing to land her invalids. The worst cases for hospital treatment were disembarked and removed yesterday morning to the General Military Hospital, Portsea, and all who could walk or be removed in omnibuses were disembarked yesterday morning and marched to tempo rary barrwk quarters. The Hansa brought home 211 invalids, 4 women, and 2, children. She left Scutari, July 12 ; Malta, the 18th ; Gibraltar, the 23d. She em barked at Balaklava Captain Breedon, of the let Royals, in military charge, Lieut.-Colonel Louth, of the :Bth Regiment ; Lieut.-Colonel Johnstone, of the 33d ' • Lieu- . tenant Johnstone, o f th e 33d ; Assistant-SurgeonHiffer man, of the 19th . ; and Lieutenant Logan, of the 77th.

At Gibraltar she embarked Lieut.- Colonel Bargeman, Royal Engineers, and Mrs. Barge man, Mr. Burgeman, and two children. She left the Europa coaling at Gibraltar, and passed her Majesty's ship !Simoom off Cape Trafalgar, on the 23d instant, under canvas, bound for Portsmouth. Lieutenant- Colonel Lowth, who was in a moribund state when the Hansa arrived alongside of Portsmouth dock yard, was, in direct opposition to the advice. of the most competent authority consulted, removed in a stretcher through the streets to lodgings; where he died in half-an-Ivur afterwards. Ten of the 15 officers brought home in the Hansa were engaged in the attack upon the Redan on the 18th, and wounded, among them the late Colonel Lowth, who was wounded in the thigh, but dysentery was the cause of his death. _ _ _ - The steam transport Europa arrived at Spithead yes terday morning from the East, with the following pas sengers and invalids :—Commander M'Kenzie, from her Majesty's ship Miranda; Commander Risk, from her Majesty's ship Wrangler ; Commander M`Killop from her Majesty's ship Snake ; Mr. Sampson Harris, chief engineer of the first class ; Mr. Adam Dunn, chief en gineer of the third class ; Lieutenant William Warren, from her Majesty's ship Queen ; Mr. J.

The naval invalids were diSembarked and transferred to her Majesty's ship Victory in Portsmouth harbour by the boats of her Ma jesty's ship St. George, at Spithead yesterday afternoon, after which the Europa departed for Liverpool. The Marley Hill, screw steam-transport, No. 169, Captain Conway, arrived at Spithead yesterday, from the East. She put in at Oporto on her way home to re pair some defects in her machinery. She brought no news or invalids. The Snowdoun screw steam-transport No. 190, Captain Gunn, also arrived at Spithead yester day, from Constantinople, Malta, and Gibraltar, but without news or invalids. Her Majesty's yachts Vic toria and Albert and the •Royal George returned to Portsmouth-harbour from Cowes on Saturday afternoon, and in the evening the Queen and Conrt took an airing in the Fairy, through Spithead. The Herefordshire, late No. no sailing transport, was towed from Portsmouth harbour to Southampton yesterday. The military hospital at Portsea has never since the war began been so crowded as it is at the present mo ment—in fact, there were some ships in the roadstead at Spithead yesterday with invalids whom the medical au thorities are puzzled what to do with. Yesterday they discharged from the General Hospital, Portsea, 21 in mates at 7 o'clock in the morning to Chichester, to make room for 25 landed from the Hansa at 8 o'clock, just one hour afterwards. The Hibernia, 104, was placed in the floating basin at Devonport on Thursday, to have ber copper examined and repaired. Extra shipwrights and joiners have been employed to expedite ber equipment as a receiving ship at Malta. The screw steam-ship Sanspareil, 71, Captain W. S. Williams, will make a trial trip of her new machinery to-morrow. The crew of the:paddle-wheel steam-sloop Virago, 6, Commander Maxwell, will be paid off at Plymouth to- morrow. The Alarm, 26, Captain Curry, is expected to go out of harbour on the 7th of August ; she is ordered to South America to relieve the Spartan, 26, Captain Sir William Hoste. The Britomart, 8, Commander Hesseltine, expected daily from the coast of Africa, will, on arrival, be paid off at Devonport. The hired steam-transport William Hutt, No. 149, Captain David Todd, which arrived at Plymouth on Friday with six tons of condertmed stores from the Crimea, spoke, on Wednesday evening, in lat. 49 S., long. 7 W., the schooner Ladybird, bound southward. The merchant ship Edmund Graham, 927 tons, Captain Shiel from Newcastle for Calcutta, entered Plymouth Sound on Saturday morning, having on board the body of William Hannaford, skipper of the Brixham tra sloop Elizabeth, of 40 tons, which she ran down on Friday morning, at six o'clock, nine miles south-south west of the Start Point. The wind was freshening from the west, the royals were taken off, and the men were lowering the flying jib. The chief officer, who was in charge, thought the sloop, which had her fishing gear down, wanted to speak. Life-buoys were instantly thrown overboard and a boat lowered, but only ono of the crew was picked up, and, although there were signs of animation, every effort to recover him proved fruit less. The crew consisted of Wm. Hannaford, Richard Tuckerman, Thomas Ellis, and a boy, William Macey. Many disastrous cases of the loss of trawl-sloops and fishing-boats, run down by large ship s , h a v e oc c urred lately off the coast of Devonshire. The New Great Britain, Captain Fairman, which left Port Philip for London on the 19th of April, the same day as the Pa cific steamer, was off Plymouth on Saturday. .She has 40,000 oz. of gold'-dust and a full cargo of wool, trans shipped brandy, and other merchandise, a small mail, and 25 passengers, among whom is Major Cockcraft, 58th Regiment, at New Zealand. Spoke June 30, in lat. 1.10 N., the Livonia, from Glasgow for Buenos Ayres, out 63 days ; July 3, in hit. 7.23 N., the Egbert, from London for Hobart Town, out 32 days • and, July 18, third distinguishing pendant No. 126, a ship, from Ran goon for London, out 107 days. About 200 men belonging to the depot of the 31st Regiment, quartered in Plymouth Citadel, are appointed to leave this morning, under the command of Captain Law, for Walmer Castle, !via the South Devon and Great Western Railways. The remainder of the depot, consisting of one captain, one subaltern, three sergeants, two drummers, and 32 rank and file, will shortly embark for Malta. The artillery stationed at llorfield Barracks, Bristol, under the command of Captain Calder, on Friday re ceived the route for Plymouth, thence to hold themselves in readiness to proceed in the Indiana to the Crimea. It is expected they will leave the barracks on Wednesday. They are to be succeeded at Horfield by another detach ment from Woolwich. The screw steamer Himalaya arrived in the Mersey on Saturday morning, and the same evening 212 men and 194 horses, forming detachments of the various Dragoon Guards, embarked. The officer in command was Colonel Spottiswoode, besides whom there were Captain Brad bury, Captain Nisbett, Lieutenants Dunovan, Mitchell, Smith, Stillman, &c. The Alban, 4, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, Lieutenant- Commander William E. Fisher, is under orders to pro ceed to Heligoland, to convey volunteers for the Foreign Legion to Folkestone.

Several very heavy mails have arrived for the Gorgon, and on the arrival of this day's mails she will leave for the Baltic. The Jackal', 4, iron paddle-wheel steamlessel, Lieu. THE MILITIA. On Thursday the ceremony of the presentation of colours to the Hertfordshire Regiment of Militia took place on Hartham•common, adjoining the town of Hert ford, where the regiment has been stationed since De cember last. The ground was thronged with spectators. The regiment, upwards of 600 strong, marched to the ground at half-past 1, at which time the Colonel, the Marquis of Salisbury, K.G,, had arrived, and took com mand of the regiment, which had previously formed three sides of a square, within which were deposited the new colours about to be presented by the Countess of Veru lam. On the arrival of the Countess the Rev. Y. W. Birch, chaplain to the regiment, advanced to the colours and performed the ceremony of consecration pith a prayer. The Lord Lieutenant then said--" I thank God that it is not likely the colours which are to be presented to the Hertfordshire Regiment of Militia this day will ever have to be borne against a foreign enemy. It is now 800 years since a foreign foe set his foot on the shores of this country, and I am happy to think that there is no probability of such an invasion as then occurred being repeated. I have, however, no doubt that many of the gallant men and good soldiers who belong to this regi ment will volunteer into the line, and thus obtain an op portunity of meeting a foreign enemy and see'ng the realities of war. Let me, then, tell them that, whenever they are in difficulty, they must close around their co lours. Difficulties, I know, can only occur to them when they are in the presence of a very superior foe, and those difficulties will be surmounted when they close around their colours, defending them to the last. And let me also tell them that, when victory crowns their arms, the bravest man is he who, when he sees his foe on the ground, spares him. Let them recollect, then, wherever they go, mercy is godlike." The colours are extremely handsome. The Queen's colour has a Crown, with the number of the regiment, and underneath the words " Herta Militia Regiment," richly embroidered on both sides. The regimental colour has a hart beautifully worked within a circle in the centre, on a white ground, the words "Hats Militia Regiment" forming the inner border, and the rose, shamrock, and thistle surrounding the whole. The colours are the gift of the Earl of Verulam. The old colours of the regiment, which date from the early days of the old militia, and which were only re leased from the pedestals in the Town-hall, where they , have been preserved in their worn and threadbare con diiion, on the recent embodiment of the regiment, were then brought forward by Ensigns Fellowes and Delme Radcliffe, who received the new colours from the hands of the Countess of Verulam kneeling on one knee. Lady Verulam then, presenting to each of the ensigns one of the colours, separately addressed them as follows : " I have the honour of presenting you with this colour, and I am confident that you will defend it to the last, as a true and loyal soldier." The ensigns having received the colours, withdrew, and Colonel the Marquis of Salisbury addressed the regi ment. The regiment then wheeled back into line, re maining at open order while the new colours, preceded by the band, were trooped, proceeding from the left to the centre, where they took their position, and the line presented arms. After these parade movementaord Salisbury gave up the command to Lieut.-Colonel Smith Dorien. The regiment then performed various evolutions, and the Lord-Lieutenant complimented all ranks on the effi ciency attained. The officers of the regiment afterwards entertained upwards of 200 of the nobility and gentry of the county at a breakfast. DEATH OF ADMIRAL NACHIMOFF. The Invalide Russe gives the following account of the death of Admiral Nachimoff : On June 29, Russia experienced an irreparable loss. The hero of Sinop e (sic), one of the brav e defenders of Sebastopol, the honour and pride of the Russian fleet and army, Admiral Nachimoff, then received a wound, to which, on the followi ng day, amidst the general regret of his companions in arms, and all Russia, he fell a victim. The witnesses give the following details as to the manner of his death. The deceased Admiral would never consent to wear the soldier's capote, but al ways kept on the coat and epaulettes of a gen era l, and in this dress he would show himself on th e most advanced fortifications, in order to ob serve the movements of the b e siegers. On June 29, at 8 o'clock p.m., the Admiral ap peared upon the Korniloff bastion, and in spite of the entreaties of all around him he lean e d over the parapet to look at the enemy s works. A ball struck the ground at his feet. The suite accom panying him renewed their entreaties, but he calmly remained at his post, saying, " They aim very well." Some moments afterwards a ball struck him on the temple. The Admiral fell senseless, and remained so until his death the following day. Sleep in peace, worthy rival of Lazary, of Korni loff, and of Istomine ! The mariners of the Bla c k Sea and the garrison of Sebastopol will not forget thy valiant example. Our children and our grand children will defend thy tomb as thou bast de fended their cradle ! THE OWEN GLENDOWER. LIVERPOOL, Sunday.— The steam-ship Owen Glendower, on her passage from Bristol to Liverpool, got ashore near Holyhead, 11er passengers and crew were all safely landed. [ PRICE 4D. STAMPED SD.

When the water is low in the river that runs down the valley, near the outlet of which is built the little town of Polperro, the cat watches on the margin of the river, and when any of the finny tribe approach within her reach, she lays aside the natural dislike that is common to the feline race, that of wetting their feet, and instantly darts hrr paws into the water and fixes her talons in her prey, brings it from its natural element, and carries it in triumph to her mas ter's house. This feat she will repeat several times in day.—Cantn.ii Ciazette. T•l4walua lk i 19 41 ■
