A l ,, +id knowing 'tie one that th e fair will discuss, I've ventured to give it. The story runs thus:— The Saintship, whose season is now near at hand, Made a call t'other day at St. Martin's-le-Grand; And every one knew wham it was, by-the-bye, On account of the wink and the leer of his eye. lit. Valentine's dress was remarkably smart, And the buttons that decked it were stamped with a heart. On reaching the principal Post-office pile, St. Valentine entered its doers with a smile, And thus he inquired as a servant drew near, " It you please is the Marquis of Clanricarde here T" " Yes he is," said the page, as he stared very hard, "If so," said St. Valentine, "take him my card." The card and the Clanricarde very soon met, And the Marquis's stare I shall never forget. " You'll conduct him this way," said his Lordship to John, And back came the man with the livery on. I need not describe how the gentlemen met, You're aware that they both understand etiquette. " I've called, my Lord Marquis, and pardon me, pray, Concerning yourself and St. Valentine's day. leach thousands of love-letters then will be written, By ladies and gentlemen all ever Britain, That a hundred new hands I am sure will be needed, In order that business may not be impeded. Your Lordship must know (said OD match-ma • ing one), That the increase is owing to MOSES and SON. I need not inisrm you that love's tender passion Is often awakened by matters of fashion ; Many thousands of ladies feel love's warming fire Trough Mgt of all noticing STYLISH ATTIRE. Yes, many a lady I've proved has been won By the form-decking raiment of MOSES and SON. For instance, I knew a Miss Dorothy Dote, Who first learned to love .on account o f a coat ; The fit was so true, and the style was .o sma rt, That the fair lest her heart through HOSES ' famed Mart. I knew a ease even stranger than that, Where Tatty the pretty was won by lIAT. 'T w o MOSES and SOTS, and the Hat was so natty, So stylish and good, that it overcame Patty Insomuch as the pretty one oftentimes said That the owner, she knew, had a sensible head. THE BOOTS MADE BY MOSES, Which fit so exact, Like loadstenes, are oftentim es have veknkonwown known co me And many strange things me to pass, toed -loo king boot and a good-looking lass.

Marriage reenire,s the fulfilment of several conditions. is order that It may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which coven the origin of domestic wretchedness. be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it bo traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, aro productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any ether to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and o f their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and 'vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance whore alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the v odka' man who can show by his posse'sion of the requisite legal q ualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his prefes acme pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'AIERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas sit r, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a r u w arms for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woo; sack at Fiye o'clock. holding this ticket of leave in the colony the convict should not rise to the superior advantage of enjoying a conditional pardon until he repaid a certain portion of the expense of his conveyance to the colony, say 15/. Of course, the Cr own wou l d have the power of remitting that condition, but he was now I stating what would be the general rule under the system. One great advantage of this rule would be to induce the convicts to save, in the first instance, a certain portion of their earnings for the purpose of obtaining their con ditional pardon, and thus they would avoid the tempta tions which persons naturally fell into who had been for some time deprived of nion,y, and who on their arrival in the colonies found themselves suddenly in the posses. sion of funds, in consequence of their labour being extremely valuable. It was also thought that it would tend greatly to diminish the objection on the part of the colonists to receiving convicts if the money so paid by the convicts were paid into the emigration funds of the colonies, instead of into the Exchequer of this country, thus assisting in promoting the tide of free emigration, which would neutralise any moral disadvantage which might be apprehended from the influx of convicts. He considered it en object of extreme importance that the con victs should be scattered as widely as possible; for he be lieved that when those who had been seduced into crime were separated from each other, and placed in association with persons who had not fallen into crime, they were the more likely to become reformed characters. With this view it had been the object of the Government to endea vour, as far as possible, to extend the field applicable to the purpose of receiving convicts, and a correspondence had taken place with the Governors of different colonies on the subject. The Governor of New South Wales had transmitted to him a resolution of the Legislative Coun cil, under which he had thought himself justified in ad vising that convicts with tickets of leave should again, for the present, be sent to that colony. The Cape of Good Hope, also, from the dispersion of the population over an immense district of territory, afforded peculiar facilities for the disposal of convicts ; and, as the demand for labour in that colony was very great, he had little doubt that convicts might be sent there with advantage. Ho bad lately received from the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope an intimation that the announcement that the Govern- ' ment intended to send convicts to that place bad ex cited very general dissatisfaction among the colonists. But it appeared to him (Earl Grey) that this was a service which the colonies could render to the mother country without any real injury to themselves, and which, considering what this country had done for them, she was entitled to require. The colonists must bear in mind that during the last session upwards of 1,000,000/. was voted by the British Parliament as an extraordinary grant for the expenses of the Kafir war, in addition to the regular charges of that war; and he thought, after making such sacrifices, that this country was entitled to require from the colony a service which might be ren dered without injury to its interests. As there had been great difficulty in finding means for disposing of the large number of persons sentenced to transportation, order, had been given for sending to the Cape of Good Hope from Bermuda 250 convicts, who had undergone a preliminary punishment, and who were recommended for removal in consequence of their good conduct. He begged to remind their Lordships that under this system the very same punishment would be inflicted which Par liament originally contemplated by transportation. It was provided, by repeated Acts of Parliament, that convicts might be sent to the colonies at any period whatever of their sentence, and that they might be kept in establishments in this country, ashore or afloat, to hard labour for any period of the term of punishment the Government might think proper. Indeed, until late years, persons sentenced to seven years' transportation were never sent out of the country, but were kept at labour in the hulks. The difference between the present and the former system would be this—that whereas, formerly, the period of coerced labour convicts were re quired to undergo before they obtained tickets of leave was passed in the colonies, it would in future be spent either in this country or at Gibraltar or Bermuda. With respect to female convicts, he agreed with the Noble Lord that there was much less objection to sending them in large numbers to Van Diemen's Land than there was with regard to male convicts ; but, at the same time, it was much more difficult to carry into effect preliminary punishment in the case of female than in the case of male prisoners. Any system of discipline which had hitherto been tried for female prisoners, associated together in considerable numbers, had failed to give satisfaction. He had re ceived reports from two gentlemen connected with the convict establishment in New South Wales, stating that the establishment on board the Anson had proved a com plete failure, and recommending that women should at once be sent out with tickets of leave on their arrival in the colony. He believed that the Anson establishment must be broken up. He did not underrate the import ance of previous reformatory discipline, but he believed that, if any establishment of that kind was to be main tained, it must be on shore. He considered that the failure on board the Anson was partly attributable to the great disadvantages which invariably attended confine ment on board hulks. Experience has proved that a floating prison was the very worst that could be adopted, both with regard to economy and discipline. The ex pease of fiting up such prisons, end keeping them in repair, was very great, the space was necessarily very confined, the means of ventilation were imperfect, and it was utterly impossible to maintain in them a perfect state of discipline. The object of the Government would therefore be to transfer such establishments to buildings on shore, as they were doing at Portland and Bermuda. He thought that if women were sent to establishments of this kind at all, it ought to be at home, in order that the system might be closely watched, and that any defects might be promptly and speedily remedied. lie considered that the punishment of transportation was much more se verely felt by women than by men. It was a far greater punishment to a woman to be placed in the disgraceful position of a convict,and to be sent away from her friends and relatives, than it was to a man; and ho therefore thought that even if female convicts were allowed to re ceive tickets of leave very soon after their arrival in the colonies, there was no danger that transportation would not still be regarded by them as a very severe punish ment. If, however, the male convicts were allowed to receive tickets of leave on their arrival, a very large num ber of them would not consider transportation a punish ment at all. The case of female convicts was one of great difficulty, and with regard to which no final deter ' mination could yet become to. It was a question for consideration whether Parliament should be asked to extend the means of subjecting them to proper prison discipline in this country; but, in the absence of proper prisons for female convicts in this country, all that could be done was to carry out their punish men t as efficiently . as possible. He might add, with regard to Mr.. Clint holm, to whom the Noble Lord had alluded, that ho was fully aware of her claims upon the Government, and that should the establishment on board the Anson bo broken up, some provision would undoubtedly be made for her. Lord CAMPBELL, in replying, said he could assure their Lordships that this Bill had been prepared after long and mature deliberation, and that he believed it was very carefully and ekiltully drawn. After a few words from the Earl of Monsara.slaxix and the Duke of RIOHmoND, The Bill was read a second time. On the motion of the Esrl of MOUNTCASHELL, return was ordered of the amount of county-rates levied in Ireland from 1785 to 1845. Their Lordships adjourned at a Quarter• past Soren.

The Duke of RICHMOND presented a petition from the Bath Church of England Association, praying that no measures endowing Roman Catholics in Ireland or in any other part of her Majesty's dominions might be passed by their Lordships. The NonLE LORD also presented a petition from a board of guardians at some place in Sussex complain ing that the unlimited establishment of beer-shops,had demoralising effect upon the labouring classes, and pray ing that in future i)o beer-shop be established in any parish unless the majority of the inhabitants were of opiniont hat it was necessary. THE SEDUCTION OF WOMEN. The Bishop of OXFORD presented several pe titions from places in Hereford and Sussex, praying their Lordships to pass a measure to prevent fraudulent seduction of women. The Right Rev. Prelate laid on the table a Bill to effect this pur pose, which was read a first time, and gave notice that be should propose that it be read a second time after the Easter recess. THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE. The RIO= RET. PARLATI gave notice that on Thurs day next be should move the appointment of a Select Committee to consider the best means which Great Bri tain could devise for the final extinction of the African Slave Trade. THE CRIMINAL LAW CONSOLIDATION BILL, AND THE BANKRUPT LAWS CONSOLIDA- TION BILL. Lord BROUGHAM moved the second reading of these Bills. The Bills proposed to alter to a certain ex tent the law of arrest, and in order to effect that object it would be necessary to repeal six sections of the Act. He desired that the refusal to pay the amount of a bond in judgment should constitute an act of bank ruptcy. if there was any compulsion in the matter, it was already an act of bankruptcy. but if there was no compulsion, the refusal was no act of bankruptcy, and this aaomaly he proposed to do away with. In the next place, the power of assignees was extended under the new Act. Ile further proposed that power should be given to executors or other persons— say creditors—to administer the estates of deceased par ties insider the bankrupt-law. He felt the greater confidence in making this alteration, inasmuch as during the years in which the law bad been administered by the present Commissioners— at least between the years 1842 and 1848, while there had been as many as 1,800 decisions, there bad not been more than five appeals that had been sustained. These Bills were then read a second time and ordered to be committed. LARCENY ACTS AMENDMENT BILL. Lord CAMPBELL moved the second readin of this Bill. After a few words from the Marquis of SALIM:MY and the Duke of RICHMOND, Lord BROUGHAM agreed with the principle of the Bill, which he considered was a most important one. Lord STANLEY thought that a measure like the present ought to have had more attention given to it then appeared to have been awarded to it by the Noble and Learned Lord who had introduced it. He thought the Government ought, before the intro duction of this Bill, to have enunciated the principles on which they intended to act with respect to transpor tation generally. He did not forget the argument which was used a few years ago by the Noble Earl, that they were about to try a new series of punishments. He did not forget either that that was an experiment, and ought not to be judged of until it had been fairly tried ; but after eighteen months' experience he did think that some statement should be made as to its success. He therefore asked the Noble Earl whether he intended to lay upon the table of the House any measure for the settlement of the matter. He thought Parliament ought also to be in formed of the course of proceeding intended to be pur sued with regard to female convicts. The accumulation of male convicts in the penal colonies had led to the se rious evil of a disproportion between the two sexes, and consequently the influx of female convicts into those co lonies, so tar from being considered an inconvenience, would tend to remedy that evil. He wished, therefore, to know how the Government intended to act on this point. Did they mean to submit female convicts to any probationary discipline in this country previous to trans portation, and to carry out to a greater extent, with re spect to them than with respect to the male convicts, the sentence of transportation? When he had held the ' situation of Colonial Secretary the position of female convicts, both here and in Van Diemen's Land pressed very closely up-in his attention, and it was attempted to carry out a reformatory system by the establishment of a penitentiary in Van Diemen's Land, in which every fe male convict in the first instance should be placed. An old 74 gun ship, the Anson, was sent out and fitted up as a floating penitentiary, but the period of reformation was of necessity too short, as the accommodation af forded was only sufficient for half the number of femode convicts sent out in the course of the year. Conse quently, the period of probation was necessarily limited to six months, but, tried so imperfectly as the system was, there were found, if he were not misinformed, striking advantages from the establishment of that pe nitentiary, and a great portion of the convicts were turned out on society greatly improved. He was now informed, though not by dir et or official authority, that it was the intention of the Government to abandon that system altogether and to send out female convicts, it they were sent out at all, subject to no reformatory discipline. He hoped he was misin formed, for the matter deserved the serious considera tion of the Government. He spoke from the informa tion of ono of the most valuable persons in her line—the superintendent of this female penitentiary, for several years one of the principal matrons of the Hanwell Lu natic Asylum—Mrs. Chisholm, who was distinguished fur the solicitude and skill with which she managed those placed under her superintendence. He was told that person was at the present moment under the apprehen sion that her services would no longer be required; and, if the establishment at Van Diemen's Land should be broken up, ho thought, in justice, some provision should be made for her. It was matter of importance, however, that the system itself should not be abandoned; for, as the female convicts were naturally more susceptible than the male, a great work of humanity might be combined with a great political advantage.—(Hear, hear.) Earl GREY said, that it was his intention to lay some papers with respect to transportation on the table of the House to-morrow, but, as he had not those papers now by him to refer to,and as he could speak merely from memory on the subject, he might possibly fall into some mistakes in addressing their Lordships on the present occasion. With respect to the main principles of the policy which the Go vernment had announced their intention to adopt in respect to transportation his opinion had not altered, but as to a very important part of it, he admitted that the result of the inquiry which took place two years ago had been very considerably to modify his opinion. So far as re. garded what he might term the strictly penal part of the sentence of transportation, he believed that that could be carried out more advantageously in this country than in the colonies, but that the subsequent part of the punishment, after the execution of the more severe por tion, could be more advantageouly put into effect in the colonies.—(Hear, hear.) His original idea had been, that the removal of convicts to the colonies should take place after their punishment had been completed, and that they should go under no restraint but as exiles. The important inquiry conducted by their Lordships and information since received from the colonies had, however, led him to conclude that the convicts should not be sent into the colonies in a state of entire freedom, but as convicts enjoying what was techni cally termed tickets of leave.—(Hear, hear.) Under such a system there would exist a power to remove the transported convicts from towns, where they might be exposed to the temptation of bad company or of easy access to public-houses, and to compel them to reside in remote districts, where the population was scattered, where they would not be exposed to the contamination of bad company, and where their labour would be most useful. There would also exist the power of mustering them on occasions when necessary. In the very great majority of cases he believed that if the convicts were subject in this country to a reformatory system of dis cipline, they would, on their arrival in the colonies, be come useful members of society. With these views the plan under which the Government was prepared to carry into effect the sentence of transportation was, that every convict (he was now speaking of male convicts) sentenced to transportation, whether for seven years or for a longer period, whose health fitted him to be sent to the colonies, should ultimately complete his punishment by going out. In the first instance he would bo sent to such places of reformatory discipline as that at Wake field, or at Pentonvillo, where he would pass a longer or shorter period of separate confinement. It had been found, in reference to the establishments at Gibraltar and Bermuda, that those convicts who had been subject to preliminary discipline when they were afterwards placed in different circumstances had not forgotten the salutary impression it had made on them. It was pro posed that the convicts, after having gone through a pe riod of separate imprisonment, in no case exceeding eighteen months, and very rarely exceeding twelve mouths.—(Bear, hear)—for all evidence showed that this was a punishment which, if prolonged beyond a cer tain time, was injurious—should be sent to some esta blishment where they could labour in association—fur instance, at Bermuda or Gibraltar, where the labour of convicts was valuable. He spoke from memory, bat he believed that the value of the labour performed by a con vict on the fortifications there was on the average 38/. a-year, and that the expense of his maintenance and clothing, not including lodging or superintendence, nd some amounted only to half the value of his labou r. establishments of this kind it was intended thatthecon con victs should go after the period of their separate impri sonment; that a record of their conduct should be kept; and that the term for which they wou ld be compelled to labour at this establishment would very much depend upon their conduct. At th e conclusion of their term Ithey would have the adva nta g e of being sent out with tickets of leave to the colonies, where they might dis perse, the object being to scatter them as widely as possible, so that a convict thus sent out might very rarely happen to see any one who might have known him when engaged formerly Gla a CUM of ctinat.

With such a committee, com posed of the most talented and experienced men of the age in their respective departments, the most beneficial results must accrue to the object under determination. SIR CHARLES NAPIER'S SQUADRON. We have intelligence from Rear-Admiral Sir Charles Napier's squadron, dated Gibraltar, Feb. 6. The Rodney, 92, Captain Collier, C. 8., and the Van guard, 80, Captain Rich, had arrived from Malta on the 4th. after a passage of 18 and 20 days. The Sharpshooter screw gun-vessel, Lieut.-Com mander Bailey, arrived at Gibraltar with dispatches from England on the 6th. ..... _ The Polyphemus, 4, steam. sloop, Commander R. B. Crawford, proceeded to Tangier at mid-day on the 6th. The Sidon, 12, steam-frigate, Captain W. H. Header. son, C. 8., was expected to return from Tangier on the 7th, with Mr. Drummond Hay's answer to the demands of the British Government from the Emperor of Morocco. The Belgian consuls have been 'also cow• plaining of the piratical acts of the Moors. The naval force under the command of Sir C. Napier, at Gibraltar, was most imposing. It was composed of the St. Vincent, 120, Captain S. C. Deere', flag of the commander-in-chief; Rodney, 82, Captain Collier, C.B. Prince Regent, 90, Captain W. F. Martin ; Powerful, 84, Captain Hon. R. J.. Dundas, C. 8.; Vanguard, 80, Captain Rich; Orestes, 14, Commander Hawker; Har lequin, 12, Commander Seymour ; and steam-vessels Sidon, 12, 'frigate, Captain Henderson • Stromboli, 6, Commander Lord A. Beauclerk; Polyphemus, 4, Com mander R. H. Crawford ; 'Reynard, 12, screw, Com mander Cracroft; Plumper, 12, screw, Commander Nol loth ; Rifleman, 8, screw gun-vessel, Lieut. Commander Crofton; Sharpshooter, 8, screw gun-vessel, Lieut. Commander Bailey. The distribution of this powerful squadron depended on the Emperor's explanations and promises. Should everything be satisfactory it Is likely the Stromboli may come home immediately with dispatches. The Rodney will come house to Portsmouth, and the Van guard to Plymouth, to be paid of immediately; and the Prince Regent was to be sent right on to Malta. The Powerful was to be retained with the squadron. It was believed that the dispatches by the Sharpshooter would limit the extent of Sir C. Napi_er's cruise, and that he would not go any f ar th e r than Madeira, return ing then to Spithead, calling, but not stopping at Lisbon, on the way home. The Rifleman was to stow her guns, and some home. The Orestes to go on to the Cape, and the Sharpshooter to Naples. The Polyphemus will be most likely left at Gibraltar until relieved by the Janus. APPOINTIfINTS. Mates—The following officers have passed their ex amination in gunnery at the Naval College, Ports mouth:—John Hamner, who passed in seamanship Feb. 2, 1847, but was acting lieutenant of the Vernon, 50. from April 8, 1848; Frederick Jones Protheroe, passed in seamanship January, 1848, and late of the llsedalus, 20 ; Thomas Drinkwater Williams, passed in seamanship Nov. 27, 1848 ; William Henry Whyte, passed in seamanship April 22, 1848, late of the Hiber nia, 104, flagship in the Mediterranean; John George Boileau, passvd in seamanship Aug. 23, 1848; Henry Maynard Bingham, passed in seamanship Nov. 3, 1848; Beville Granvill Wyndham Nicolas, passed in seaman ship Dec. 6, 1848, late of the Calliope, 26, from New Zealand, son of ... , 'aptain-Superintend.nt Toup Nicolas, C. 13.; Ttiemas James Young, passed in seamanship Dec. 7, 1848; lion.

Carpenter—Joseph B. Foreman, acting to the South ampton, 50, frigate, at the Cape. OBITUARY.—Retired Commander Robert Yule died at his residence at Southsea, on the 10th instant. He was a lieutenant of 1802, and retired commander of 1840. By this officer's death a vacancy for a lieutenant in the out-pension list of Greenwich Hospital is made. Commander Yule was in transport service at the capture of Martinique and Guadaloupe ; mate of Brilliant in action with Vertu and Regeneree; and of Penelope at capture of Guillaume Tell, and surrender of Malts ; Lieutenant of Egyptienne in Calder's action, and of Il lustrious, commanding a gun-boat at t Waicheren. Pre sent at the capture of the Isles of France and Java, 1811. A surrey of seamen and marines in the Royal Naval Hospital, Stonehouse, was held yesterday, at which the captains and surgeons of all the ships in commission assisted. The San Josef, 110, late flag-ship at Devonport, will not be sold out of the service. It is deemed more eco nomical and advantageous to break her up in the Royal establishment, by job and task work, and then to dis pose of as much of the old timber and stores as is not convertible for further service. The Arrogant, 46, screw-frigate, in dock at Ports mouth, has had a gang of riggers at work on board. Her topmasts are fidded, and the rigging is being rattled down. Captain Fitzroy is frequently on board overlook ing her fittings. PORTSMOUTH, TMURSDAY, FIVE P.M.—For the last three days we have had light N.N.W. winds, with very fine weather. A Russian Finland barque, the Astrea Captain Erne leus, arrived yesterday a t Portsmouth from Newcastle, bound to Genoa, having cholera on board. Three of her crew were lying dead on board, and four more were dan gerously ill, and not expected to recover. She was ordered down to the quarantine ground at the Mother bank, and has been visited by a medical gentleman.
