Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but thelmoderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

LA'MERT on the Treatment and cure of NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, resulting from pernicious habits contracted in - Youth, excesses in Man hood, or residence in Tropical Climates. With Cases and En gravings from Life, representing the various Organs in Health and Disease. The extensive circulation of this work may be attributed In great measure to the fact that the Author is the only duly qualified and legally registered Practitioner who for 20 Tears has made the Diseases arising usually from Imprudence the peculiar objects of his attention. The im pediments which so often either prohibit wedlock, or embitter and render it a state of misery, by disappointing its fondest hopes and marring its highest objects, are, though varied in form, closely analogous in reality. The mischief may arise in nocently, from deleterious influences devolved from the necessities of position—from circumstances which occurred years before the sufferers were born, from accident or the in fluence of tropical climates, but chiefly from Self-incurred Afflictions, dating back, in too numerous instances, to a period long preceding that at which reason could be matured by ex perience. A professional prejudice, which happily is now fast disap pearing, though it still lingers with no little obstinacy in some of the more antiquated medical schools, for a long time almost ignored the morbid affections comprised under the general designation "Nervous and Physical Debility," though these affections are probably more destructive and widely pre valent than any others. The consequence of so important a department of pathology being neglected is, that sufferers from the infirmities in question, virtually repelled from consultation with prac titioners of standing and character, are thus liable to fall into the hands of unqualified Empirics, sometimes assuming titles of Physicians and Surgeons, whose names are not to be found in the Medical Register (whereby they incur serious legal penalties\ whose ignorant meddling with the treatment of these cases render these disorders a standing reproach to the medical profession. Those who may have a suspicion that any of the observations here made have peculiar applica tion to themselves, may consider that cases are indeed rare in which practised science cannot fully realise long-deferred hopes, remove all causes of mutual reproach, and replace chro lie embitterment by permanent content. 1)r.

His Grace the Duke of Marlborough, who is said to be strongly opposed to racing, has forbidden any of his tenants either to let their downs for training or to keep racehorses or greyhounds. But for this restriction Count Lagrange and Baron Niviere would have taken Mr. Jones's late training establishment, and it is feared that, at the expiration of another year, A. Taylor will have to move his stables at Fyfield. Such is the tenor of an announcement made in a contemporary not in the habit of publishing untrustworthy information or exaggerating actual facts. We must there fore congratulate Exeter Hall on the noble accession it has received. The intelligence contained in the foregoing para graph is of itself sufficient to send the entire tea-drinking and psalm-singing world into violent hysterics. Mr. Spur geon, on hearing of the pious resolutions at which John Winston Spencer Churchill, seventh Duke of Marlborough, has arrived, will doubtless jump into his brougham, pro ceed to the railway station, and rushing righteously to Blen heim, throw himself upon the bosom of his ducal brother. His grace has cast out the swine, and all that defileth. " Racehorses and greyhounds" are no longer to pollute the soil which the grateful and free people of England presented to the great John Churchill, the first Duke, after his vic tories of Blenheim, Ramilies, and Malplaquet. The present bearer of the ducal title has determined to live no longer in splendid insignificance, and although his illustrious an cestor made battle-fields his arena of action, his descendant has girded his loins to wage war against national sports. Thus, according to report, has the present occupant of Blenheim sought to render himself notorious, if not famous. Macaulay, in his history, draws no very flattering picture of the private character of the great founder of the house, and everybody knows what kind of woman his wife, old Sarah, was ; and though it was said that John, Duke of Marl borough, "would caress a woman while he stole her neck lace," we doubt whether either he or his " better half" would have descended to an act of pettifogging narrow mindedness like this. Bigotry and filth have always been identical.o , Ve are sorryto have to comment on another dirty alliance, and to come to the conclusion that religion, as it is the fashion of the day to dignify this hollow stuff, has joined itself to the most wretched intolerance. This bright and distinguished pillar of Church and State has, we unhesitat ingly avow, tarnished his coronet and his order. If it is thus the peerage intend to demean themselves in the exercise of their high prerogative and admitted power, the people had better awake and assert their right to be heard in opposition to such outrages upon their free will and liberty of action. It is not our custom to rake up past offences or grievances, but if we remember rightly the present Duke of Marlborough was a short time since "pulled down" by popular opinion for charging a paltry toll to visitors for the privilege of in specting grounds and relics of Blenheim. At the time it was declared that his grace was converting his mansion into a huge show, and virtually adopting " all• the-fun-of the-fair-only-ah-penny-ah-penny" principle. Much indig nation and contempt were excited at the time by such state ments, but what shall be said of this attack upon the free sports and independence of Englishmen. Every acre owned by the Duke of Marlborough he owes to the generous liberality of his countrymen. His domains were given to his illustrious progenitor as the reward for valour and national services. Does his grace intend to requite such munificence by a shameful and overbearing interference with the cherished pastimes of our land ? A man has a right to his religious opinions and convictions when he does not use them as the instruments of persecution, or intrude them upon others. The Duke of Marlborough is entitled to that freedom of thought and action which all under the sove reignty of Queen Victoria are supposed to enjoy; but Eng land is too old to suffer landlords, even though they wear a coronet and ermine, to override and persecute their tenants. Horse racing is a national diverson, patronised by an im mense majority of our countrymen, and countenanced by royalty and the Ministers of the Crown. The participators in sporting pursuits have a right to expect that their sentiments will be treated with a certain degree of defer ence, and it is not from a dozen Dukes of Marlborough that they would quietly endure an insult and a slur upon that which a better and higher man than his grace de signated "the chosen sport of a great and free people." We could almost have understood his grace's objections and line of conduct, had he simply forbidden anything like active sport upon his estates. It is no new thing for people to perceive in the congregation of betting men and low characters much that is open to complaint and condemna tion. That any imaginable distortion of the mind, how ever, could discover aught against which the merest ex ception could be taken in the simple training of racehorses and greyhounds, must be plain to all unprejudiced persons. According to report, however, the Duke of Marlborough is of a widely different way of thinking. Count Lagrange and Baron Niviere, who wish to train horses upon his grace's estate, are not to be allowed to do so, even though they be willing to conform to the usual laws of landlord and tenant. Perhaps his grace inherits an instinctive dis like of Frenchmen from his heroic ancestor, and the blood of the great John Churchill kindling in his veins, he re solved to " spurn the haughty Gaul 1" But Taylor, of Fyfield, who, it appears, is in dread of eviction, is an Eng lishman to the back bone. What is the head and front of his offending ? Simply that he trains horses for the turf, and possibly, for aught we know to the contrary, he may be guilty of the additional offence of " schooling" a grey hound for the slips. Against such of his tenants it would seem his grace has determined to direct his pious shafts Should the threat be carried out let Exeter Hall hail with enthusiasm an act which will please the whole world of cant, but arouse the contempt and indignation of all healthy-minded, free-spirited Englishmen.—Sporting Life. A HEALTHY PARISH.—In the parish of Inner leithen, which has a population exceeding 1,500, there have been no deaths during the quarter just passed. During the whole of the year 1860 there have been only 15 deaths, giv ing a death-rate as low as 10 per thousand. Of these 15 deaths there were only two below five years of age, one of the two dying a day or two after premature birth. THE DELHI AND LUCKNOW PRIZE MONEY.—It is generally understood that the prize money resulting from the capture of Lucknow and Delhi in the year 1857 will shortly be distributed. The amounts realised are very large, and we believe we are correct in stating that the sums stand in round numbers as follows :—For Delhi, 36 Lacs of rupees, or £360,000; for Lucknow, 15 lass of rupees, or £150,000. DESTRUCTION BY FIRE OF A STEAM -SHIP, AND PROBABLE Loss or ALL ON BOARD.--110 New York Harald of the 25th December reports the following:— " Captain Hewes, of ship Scargo, below Boston, reports having seen a steamer on fire N.N.E. of Bermuda. Ran for her, it blowing a gale of wind at the time. When about a quarter of a mile from her, heard the cries of people in the water. Rounded to and tried to got to them, but could not. Laid by the steamer until five a.m. when she sank. Kept near the same position to try and save some of the people for two days, but saw nothing but lemons, oranges, and puncheons, apparently rum. The steamer looked like an iron Tessa," The St. George, 91, screw, Capt, the Hon. F. Egerton, left Spithead yesterday morning under steam, and proceeded to Osborne for her Majesty's pleasure to inspect the ship in which his Royal Highness Prince Alfred will do duty as midship man oil the North American and West India sta tion. The ship was dressed, manned yards, and saluted. The Queen, Prince Consort, and Royal fin.ily went on board, and her Majesty minutely inspected cabins and quarters, and was pleased to express her approval of the general arrangements. The Cossack, 21, screw, Capt. Moorman, arrived at Spithead yesterday from the West Indies, sail ing from Barbadoes on the 10th of December. She has, on the whole, experienced a rather rough pas sage home. At 6 30 p.m., off Portland, she was in collision with the schooner John and Henry, Reece master, from Dieppe for Runcorn. The schooner had her mainmast carried away, !with upper spars, rigging, and sails, and her port quarter stove in. The Cossack took her in tow, and brought her in to Spithead to repair damages, which fall upon the Admiralty. The ship awaits orders at Spithead. The Edgar, 91, screw, Capt. James Katon, flag ship of Rear-Admiral J. E. Erskine, left Ports mouth harbour yesterday morning, and took up a berth to the eastward of the ships at Spithead. The ships now anchored at Spithead, in addition to the Edgar, comprise the Algiers, 91, screw, Capt. G. D. O'Callaghan ; the Trafalgar, 91, screw, Capt. Fanshawe; the Immortalite, 51. screw, Capt. G. Hancock; the Diadem, 32, screw, Capt. G. Cock burn ; the Cossack, 20, screw, Capt. R. Moorman ; the Desperate 7, screw, Commander Ross ; and the Triton, 3, paddle, Lieut.-Commander R. Burton ; the whole representing a force of 477 guns, and 4,410-horse power, nominal. The screw steamship Centurion, 80, Capt. H. D. Rogers, C. 8., which left Lisbon on the 30th Dec., arrived in Plymouth Sound yesterday morning. She started from the Tagus under steam, with a southerly wind, which continued until the 4th inst., when she was taken aback with east and south east winds. On Sunday is changed to southwest, and so continued until 8.30 a.m. on Monday, when baffling winds were experienced, and at 2.30 p.m. steam was got up and continued until she reached the Sound. The weather was moderate and fine all the passage home. The Centurion brings only 10 invalids, who were taken from Lisbon hospital, where they were left by the Channel Fleet; she was ordered to go up Hamoaze yesterday after noon to make good defects; her crew will be paid down and granted leave of absence. The screw steamship St. Jean d'Acre, 101, Capt. the Hon. C. Elliott, which arrived Dec. 29, was left in the Tagus. The Centurion spoke, Jan. 4, at 4 p.m., the ship Phcenix, homeward bound. The paddle-wheel steam tender, Advice, from Queenstown, with supernumeraries and boys for the receiving ships Adelaide and Implacable,inHameaze, arrived in Plymouth Sound yesterday morning. The War Department steamvessel Lord Pan - sure is discharging ammunition, &c., at the Bull Point powder works in Hamoaze. Her Majesty's steamsloop Spiteful arrived at Falmouth on Sunday afternoon from Plymouth, to tow the ship Epsom, which put in there on the 3d inst., with detachments of troops from Hong Kong to the first-named port. The Spiteful, with the Epsom in tow, left at 9 a.m. on Monday. The Trincomalee, 24, sailing ship, destined for a training ship at the port of Sunderland for the newly-entered men of the navy, was commissioned at Chatham yesterday by Commander Tho 3. Heard (1850). As soon as she has completed fitting at Chatham she will proceed to her destination. The Linnet gunboat, 60 horse power, left Sheer ness harbour yesterday for the trial of her machi nery and speed at the measured mile off Maplin Sand. The vessel was under the superintendence of Capt. Schomberg, of the steam reserve at Sheer ness, accompanied by Mr. W. Price, inspector of machinery afloat, and Mr. J. Baker, chief engineer at Chatham dockyard. The machinery of the vessel is built by Messrs. Maudsley, Son, and Field. The results of the trial were successful, both the machi nery and the boat giving the greatest satisfaction. Draught of water aft, 7ft. 3in. ; forward, 6ft. Sin. ; high pressure of steam, 60; revolutions, 150; speed, 8.4. Her Majesty's troopship Dee, Master. Commander Thos. C. Pullen, having undergone repairs of ma chinery, left Woolwich yesterday laden with boilers and steam gear for the screw steamship Black Prince, under construction at Glasgow. On ac count of the enormous bulk and weight of the boilers—namely, 23 tons each, and the total ab sence of any arrangements for their being stowed below deck on board the Dee and the Rhadaman thus, it was deemed unsafe to transport more than two on each voyage, exclusively of machinery and small gear. The engines of the Black Prince, in tended to work at the nominal rate of 1,250 horse power, will be supplied with 10 of these huge boilers, two of which were conveyed by the Rhadamanthus, and six others are in readiness for shipment. The greatest precaution has been ob served in loading both vessels to avoid encumbering the decks, and to provide against the risk of the boilers filling in case of a heavy sea. On account of the increasing severity of the frost the Vividpßustler, and other ships lying in ordi nary at Woolwich were yesterday ordered to slip their moorings and haul alongside the wharf, to facilitate communication with the shore, which had become a task of some difficulty. Yesterday morn ing, on attempting to send a boat off, the proceed ing was not accomplished within a full hour, in consequence of having to cut through the flakes of ice which had collected during the night, and had frozen in a solid mass from the wharf side and the pier to the line of the river taken up by the flag ship and other vessels stationed for service off the dockyard. On the flow of the tide and some heavy gusts of wind from the north-east the ice broke up, and the impediment was thoroughly cleared away, when the ships were brought alongside and secured for the time. The Black Eagle returned from Os tend on Monday with Prince Alfred, and is now coaling alongside the Hebe hulk. She is also under orders to make fast at the wharf in a similar man ner. The following sailing vessels have been taken up by the War Department under contract to ship from the Military Store Department at Woolwich for foreign stations, viz.—the Providence, Era, Af rican, Refuge, Media, Cyclops, Waterlily, Shannon and Liffy, and steamer prompt. Mr. J. Tucker, master R.N., has been appointed additional to the Impregnable, for service as har bourmaster at Falmouth, vice Lieut. S. G. Robins, deceased. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Commander E. Madden, to the Banshee, vice Commander C. Campbell, super seded at his own request ; Lieut. A. T. Denham, to the Trafalgar; Lieut. H. It. Stewart, to the Daunt less ; Lieut. B. Cochrane, to the Barracouta ; Lieut. J. W. Dennistoun, to the Trident ; John H.

L. Southey, John H. Tully, Colman M. Hamtnond, Bernard B. Dowling, Charles It. Martin, Edward C. Smyth, Wm. Haydon, and Wm. C. Cronin have been promoted to the rank of Masters; and Metiers. THE ARMY. General Goldsmid died on Sunday at his resi ':dence in Park-crescent. The General entered the army as cornet in the 12th Light Dragoons, and the following year proceeded on active service in the Peninsula, where he continued to serve until the close of the war in 1814. He was pre sent at the cavalry affairs of Castrajon, Quintare de Puerta, and Monasterio, also at the battles of Salamanca, Vittoria, Nivelle, and Nive, for which he received the silver medal and four clasps. He served also during the campaign of 1815, and was at Waterloo. In June, 1826, he retired from his regiment on half-pay. His commissions bore date as follows :—Cornet, 30th of May, 1811 ; Lieut., 20th of February, 1812; Captain, 22d of February, 1816; Major, 10th of June, 1826; Lieut.-Col., 23d of November, 1841; Col., 20th of June, 1854 ; and Major-Gen.., 26th of October, 1858. A new transport-carriage for the removal of heavy guns has been forwaided to Portsmouth for the purpose of testing its powers in the removal of large class ordnance to and from different parts of works, and has been found to answer admirably, contrasting very favourably when compared with the old sling waggon. The new carriage is very simple in character, and consists of four parts. A pole and axle, with two wheels, with a projec ting fork and upright pin over the axle ; in fact, a " roller handspike" mounted on wheels. The pin, on the pole being raised, fits in a plate in the rear and under part of the slide of an eight-inch gun carriage, and by pulling down the pole, precisely as the handspike is used, the weight of the slide, carriage, and gun is taken off the ground and thrown on the fore axle of the transporting carriage. At the fore and under part of the slide, in a line with the fore chase of the gun, are fittings to receive an iron axle, which is clamped into its place and then fitted with its two wheels. On or dinary roads the heaviest ordnance mounted on their carriage and traversing slides may thus be transported to any distance. A court•martial assembled at the Marine bar racks, Forton, near Portsmouth, on Monday, for the trial of Henry Cragg, private Royal Marines, on the following charges :—" 1. For having, when arraigned before a garrison court-martial at the mainguard, Portsmouth, on or about the 10th day of October, 1860, thrown a stone at Brevet-Lieut.- Colonel Alexander C. Robertson, of the Ist batta" lion of the Bth Regiment, the president of the said court, which struck him on the breast, while reading the minute of the proceedings preliminary to the swearing of the members; and for having, when ordered by the said Lieut.-Col. Robertson to be removed from the court, resisted the escort ordered to remove him, and attempting to snatch from the table a copy of the Mutiny Act, such conduct being subversive of good order and military discipline. 2. For conducting himself in a disrespectful manner and using disgusting lan guage when before the Court, &e." The Court found both charges fully proved against the pri soner. His character was also deposed to as being very bad, and several previous convictions were proved against him. The Court was composed of Col. H. C. C. Moore, President ; Lieut.-Col. Payne, Lieut.-Col. Maxwell, and Lieut.-Col. It. C. Spald ing, all of the Royal Marine Light Infantry; Major Digby, Royal Marine Artillery ; Major Bayley, Bth Regiment (King's Own) ; Captains Clay, 19th Regiment; Whiteside, Bth Regiment; Mawby, Royal Marine Artillery; Stotherd, 21st Regiment ; and Bolton, Royal!Artillery ; Lieuts.

Lean, as Deputy- Judge Advocate. 211,E SOUTILIMP T 7X 7 N aN HAR7'LEY INSTI- SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAY. Lord Palmerston has this day paid us his pro mised visit, and assisted in the ceremonial of laying the corner•rtone of a noble edifice now erecting in the High-street, to be hereafter devoted to the en nobling pursuits of literature and science. In the afternoon a dejeuner was given by the Mayor at the Audit House, his worship occupying the chair. The MAYOR proposed "The Health of Lord Pal merston," which was received with loud and en thusiastic cheering. His worship referred to the efforts of his lordship in the cause of civil and reli giols liberty ; the moral support which his lordship had given to the struggles for liberty in Italy under the patriotic Garibaldi; and to his characteristics as a landlord and a Hampshire man. He congratu lated them all on the successful issue of the Chinese expedition, and on the fact that we were at peace with all the world, thanks to the efforts of the Government of which his lordship was the distin guished chief. The toast was drunkewith every demonstration of welcome. Lord PALMERSTON, on rising, was received with loud and prolonged cheers, on the subsidence of which he said,—Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen, I can assure you that I am not using an ordinary figure of speech when I say that it is impossible for me to find words adequately to express my deep feelings to you, Mr. Mayor, for the kind and too flattering manner in which you have been pleased to propose this toast, and to you, gentlemen, for the way in which you have been kind enough to receive it. To those who are engaged in official and in Parliamen tary duties the occasions are few when they are able to meet, as it has boon my annd fortunn to do—to meet their friends and neighbours in convivial assemblies like this. But in proportion to the seldomness of those occasions so is the gratification which they afford, and we regret that it is not oftener in our power to meet in convivial sociality those with whom we are neighbours and friends. (Cheers.) I look upon myself here, gentlemen, as at home. (Cheers.) It is the more gratifying when one receives tokens of goodwill and approval —it is the more gratifying when those tokens pro ceed from these who are one's neighbours and friends, who not only watch one in public life, but also know one personally in private relations. (Hear.) As a burgess and an old burgess of South ampton, claiming seniority in that capacity over, I believe, almost all those whom I have the honour of meeting—(cheers)—as a burgess of Southampton , therefore, I feel doubly gratified at the cordial reception with which I have been honoured this day in the town of Southampton. The occasion, indeed, is one of deep interest. Those who have watched the progress of this thriving and prosper ous town have seen how rapidly its population, its commerce, its wealth, its industry , its intelligen ce have of late years increased. But hitherto it has not possessed any of those large public institutions upon a large scale w hich have grown u p i n ot h er centres of industry, of manufacture, and of com merce. I trust that the bequest of which we are to day commemorating the foundation will place this town of Southampton upon a par with the other great communities of the country, and upon a level in its public condition with the individual and in tellectual qualifications which prevail among its inhabitants. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, we have laid the foundation, and all things must have a begin ning; but, as I took leave to say this morning, I am convinced that the foundation we have laid will be the foundation of a far greater structure than that which you contemplate in your proceedings to-day ; and that when it is found that you have this insti tution—those means of instruction and those oppor tunities of reciprocal and intellectual intercourse— that not only your own citizens, but others who take an interest in your welfare, will be found pro. gressively, and year after year, to add to those means which, however they may be sufficient for your immediate purposes, will, I am persuaded be inadequate for the future development of the future intelligence of this town. (Cheers.) I shall not, gentlemen, presume to enter into any investi gation or discussion of the arrangements which may be best adapted for the purposdfor which this bequest has been made. In the first place, there is another toast coming which may furnish a more appropriate occasion for any hints or suggestions upon that point. But I see by a volume which you, Mr. Mayor, haie given me that you have had opinions from a greater number of persons who, from their scientific attainments, as well as from their local position, are well qualified to give advice, not only as to the struc ture you are to raise, but as to the manner in which you arc to employ it when completed. I most, how ever, as a Hampshire man—l must as a burgess of Southampton—make a friendly criticism upon a passage which is found in the letter of that most distinguished, learned, and scientific maa—Dr. Playfair. He gives you a great deal of important advice, which he is most competent to give, but in treating with the question of an observatory he dissuades you from erecting a scientific observatory because, he says, it would be nearly useless on ac count of the cloudiness of your atmosphere, (Laugh ter.) Now, really, gentlemen, when we recollect that Dr. Playfair writes from Kensington — (laughter)—from within the verge of those volumes of coal which keep floating over the metropolis of the country, and where if there is cloudiness there it is sure to be found, and when we recollect that close by is the observatory of Dr. South, I can only recommend that you would invite him to pass some days at any period of the year within your town to Convince him of that which I apprehend is true — that of all parts of England there is none in which the sun favours mankind more frequently than it does in this southern town. (Cheers.) Mr. Mayor, you have been pleased to advert to some questions of public policy, and to express that in which I hope you represent the feeling of the county— (cheers)—satisfaction with the manner in which the Government of which I have the honour to be a member have conducted the matters of which they had to dispose. (Cheers.) It is truethatthe autumn which has passed, and the winter which is now going on have produced three events as remarkable perhaps, as any that have ever been crowded into the same space of time, and in three quarters of the globe. (Hear, hear.) You have . adverted to that event which has taken place in Asia, I mean the occupation of the capital of the Chinese empire by the allied English and French forces. Well, if any man 20 years ago could have told you that we could have had English and French troops in Pekin he would have been laughed at as a visionary. But it has been accomplished, and I trust it will lead to those permanent relations of peace and commerce with China which will be equally advantageous both to Europe and to the remote portions of Asia. (Hear.) You have been pleased, Mr. Mayor, to advert to the complete manner in which that expe dition was fitted out. 'Well, great merit on that account is undoubtedly due, not only to my right hon. friend, Mr. Sidney Herbert, the Secretary of State for War, who has devoted the whole energies of his mind and all the power of his intellect to further everything connected with the military service—it is not only due to his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief, who has produced great improvements in, and is devoted to, the service of which he is so distinguished a member ; but it is also due to the energetic administration of Lord Canning in India, from which country a great part of our troops were despatched, and all the success is due to the ability and decision and vigour of our commanders by sea and by land—(cheers)—to those distinguished men, General Hope Grant and Admiral Hope, and to the firmness, decision, and energy of our negotiator, Lord Elgin. (Cheers.) It is certainly true that no operation, I think, at tempted under such natural difficulties was ever attended with more complete and more rapid suc cess. You have also been pleased to advert, Mr. Mayor, to those events which are now passing in Italy. Well, you have said truly that the moral influence of England has not been without its effect upon those events, and my noble friend Lord John Russell, who bas been a useful exponent of the generous feelings of the country, and an able organ of the Government of which lie is so distinguished a member —my noble friend has taken good care that it should be known in every part} of Europe what are the wishes and intentions of the British Government, and what the sympathies and feelings of the British nation. (Cheers.) That which is taking place in Italy is one of the most remarkable—and I think it may be added will be, in its consequences, one of the most important-- events recorded in European history. We see peo ple who, for a long course of centuries, have been stripped and divided into different small communi ties, many of whom have for a long course of years been the victims of miserably blind and unen lightened Governments, we' see them rising with one common sentiment, determined henceforward to unite ; and I trust that that union, whatever tem porary difficulties it may experience, may at no long interval of time be converted into an °accom plished fact. (Hear, hear.) When we know . the great natural resources of that peninsula ; when we I see the extent of sea coast, the number of excellent harbours, the natural productions of the soil, and, above all, when we remember the intelligence of Ithe people, who, notwithstanding the crushing des potism under which many of them have long laboured, have nevertheless produced a great num ber of men distinguished in every branch of intel lectual improvement—l say, when we look at these things, when we refer to what the Italians have } been at two former periods of history at the time when the Roman Empire was mistress of the world and when later it became the cradle of reviving intelligence, we are justified in hoping and believ -1 ing that Italy is destined to play a great part in the affairs of the world, not as a conquering and aggressive nation, because circumstances preclude its falling into those vicious ways, but as a centre of enlightenment, and as a place where men shall be cultivated to the almost possibility. (Loud cheers.) The Italians are about, I trust, to be placed under that which is the beet possible form of political Government—l mean a constitutional monarchy. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, the third event, which is, I fear, already not fully accomplished, but too far advanced, has taken p l a ce in another quarter of the globe—l mean America. We ha ve much reason to fear that that union which has now existed net much l ess than a century, which has conduced to the peace and prosperity of our kins men on the other side of the Atlantic, is likely to be brown and disrupted. It is not our business to express in regard to that event any other feeling t h an this, that we wish from th e b o tt om of our hearts that those disputes, whatever they may be, may be settled by amicable understanding—( hear, hear)—and that whether that union is destined to remain unimpaired, or whether those States are determined to separate into different communities, our fervent prayer is that the result may be brought about by amicable means, be it for main taing or dissolving the union, and that the world may be spared the afflicting spectacle of hostile conflict between brothers and relations. (Cheers.) His Lordship, referring to the inspection of the Southampton Volunteers in the afternoon, spoke in eulogistic terms of the movement, which he termed the third portion of our national defences, which the militia had previously failed to supply. He then again alluded to the literary object of the gathering, and thanked them for the compliment paid him. His Lordship resumed his seat amidst . repeated cheers. Several other toasts followed, including " Suc• cess to the Hartley Institution, and the Literary and Scientific Societies of Southampton," proposed by the Hon. W. T. Cow PER, M.P. ; the " Mayor," proposed by Lord PALMERSTON ; " The Right Hon. the Viscountess Palmerston and the Ladies of Hampshire," given by the MAYOR, and acknow ledged by the noble Viscount. The remainder of the toasts were of a local character. The proceedings, which were very interesting . throughout, were not concluded till a late hour of the evening.
