" Dr. l'ickford 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 the moderate price at which the `brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

Early yesterday evening the city and eastern part of the metropolis were again alarmed by the outbreak of a fire in the immediate neighbourhood of the London and St. Katherine docks, involving a great loss of property and, it is feared, of human life. The premises on which the conflagration oc• curred were the extensive sugar works and refinery of Messrs. Harrison and Wilson, on the west side of Dock -street, Upper East Smithfield, in close prox imity to the London Docks, and in consequence of their lofty proportions formed a prominent pile, as seen from the bridges. The warehouse, a massive structure, was nine stories in height, and with the boiler-house, store, and departments covered a large area of ground. At the time of the outbreak the works were in full operation, and workmen were en gaged on the several floors at their various avocations. The fire is supposed to have commenced in the lower part of the building. The sudden rush of smoke into the upper floors seems to have been the first intimation to the workpeople of their danger, when a desperate attempt was made to escape by the staircases. The men, however, found that means of egress impracticable, and the intense heat and smoke drove them to the upper floors, and they finally got on to the roof. Almost at the same moment flames burst forth from ali the windows of the lower floors, and the On fellows seeing their very critical position, a 4 all hope of escaping through the warehouse wall cut off, made for the south-west angle of the buiAing, where there was a short ladder which comrennicated with the store, a building which adjoined, E nd the roof of which was some 25ft. or 30ft. below. A rush was made to descend to it. Some got down in safety, others slid down the water-pipe, and three, we under stand, fell over in the scramble to escape and were so shockingly injured that they had to be imme diately lowered and conveyed to the London Hos pital. Two men were reported to be missing, and it was feared, no information having been obtained up to the jime this was written, that they had, unhappily, perished. The different floors being loaded with sugar, and the timbers strongly impregnated with saccharine matter, the fire made the most rapid progress and extended from floor to door with astonishing rapidity. The huge cloud of black smoke which rose from the warehouse dirkened the neighbour hood, and being distinctly . en from the different bridges caused a general arm throughout the metropolis, attracEng an sense crowd to the vicinity of the fire. The lie brigade displayed their usual alacrity in arriving at the scene. Nearly a dozen land engines, including the power ful steam land engine, were,brought into operation in a short time. In the absence of Captain Shaw, the successor to the lath' Mr. Braidwoad, the direction of the force devolved upon Messrs. Hen derson, Bridges, and Gerrard, the chief officers who were in attendance. Notwithstanding the vigorous efforts made to check the flames they continued to extend and defy all power to subdue them, and at length within an hour the whole of the lofty warehouse presented one body of fire, the floors falling in at intervals with a crash resembling distant thunder. The wind, which was blowing from the north-west, carried the flames and burning 1 1 embers in the direction of the warehouses and ship ing in the London Docks, and at one time serious apprehensions were entertained for the security of that establishment. The company's dock-floats were brought up into the western basin, and the two bri gade floating engines were also hauled in from the river and brought near the north quay. Mr, Randall, the superintendent of the dock, got some of the land engines to work on the roof of the new wool warehouses abutting on to East Smithfield, where the most danger appeared to exist, and it was some hours before it was deemed safe to cease ope rations. I By 8 o'clock the main building of the sugar fac tory was gutted, the whole of the floor and roof had fallen, and nothing remained but the huge tottering blackened walls. All the exertions of the firemen were now directed to the store warehouse and stores which stood at the rear, and contained an immense stock of sugars. They communicated by an iron door at the basement story, which being partially open led to an apprehension that nothing would save those departments from a similar fate with the sugarhouse. The brigade, however, seeing the great peril in which the property was placed, worked with admirable courage and energy, the workpeople rendering the most valuable aid, and contrary to the expectation of the arm, after the most fear ful labour, for the heat was intense, they succeeded in keeping the fire at bay and eventually this sec ' tion of the works was saved. The flames in the gutted warehouse raged furi ously until near midnight, but no further destruc tion of property was apprehended. The only danger to be feared was from the falling of the walls, which necessitated the police blocking np both ends of the street and closing it for traffic. There was an immense crowd, but the arrange ments made by Mr. Superintendent White, of the H. division of police, who had a strong body of the force in attendance, secured order, and much as sisted the'firemen in their arduous operations. The volunteer fire brigade of Mr. Hodges, of the Lam beth distillery, were on the spot in full force. The loss of property i s computed at £ :30,000, which will fall on several offices, TILE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA. (From the Times' Special Correspondent.) AUGUST 16. . There are two kinds of news which military men can learn from newspapers—that which is gleaned by analysis of the contents, the value of which de pends on the materials and the skill of the operator ; and direct intelligence, the worth of which is in proportion to its correctness. To tell a general that a work is well built is like acquainting him that Troy was strong. To tell him that such a regiment is in such a place, trivial as it seems, may be of immense use to him if he knows how the divisions and brigades of his enemy are composed. A fort differs from an earthworth as much as an iron plated frigate from the Trojan horse. liut in its -MaY.- 13 P_, 1 _ 11 4V- 1 4a. I were to , itiVoi tlat'a fort contained so inane guns, and that they bore on such and such pointS, I might lead my military friend into a fatal error, if I did not inform him that there was a ditch with 12 feet of water in it outside. If the position of the ma gazines were indicated to .an investing force, it would be worth much more than the knowledge of the calibres of the guns, which are soon ascertained by tangible proofs. There are hundreds of points of this kind on which ignorance requires to •be in formed as to -worth and uselessness. It is necessary to say so, because an outcry has come from the South, I hear, against me for communicating to the enemy—i.e., the North—intelligence which I was enabled to acquire in my capacity as a neutral. Now, let me say, that though I was a neutral I was the special correspondent of a newspaper published a long way off, and that I distinctly stated to every officer whose command I visited, on both sides, that I was going to publish so much of what I saw as ap peared to me likely to interest the readers of the journal I represented. I went so far as to say to more than one, " Mind ! what I write will come back in a month or six weeks." I saw . everything, but I was far from publishingev,erything. I did more than could have been expected from me, for I did not enter upon details, which would have been far more injurious to the Southerners than the general statements I made in reference to the condition and position of their men and batteries. When I set out to visit the South from Washington hostilities had not com- Menced, but I feltthey were coming, and it appeared to me desirable to visit the. South before the hot weather physically set in, and, above all, before the hotter weather poJ itically which I apprehended came upon me. It was obvious that, with the coasts blockaded and mails cut 'off, it would have been of little use for your correspondent to have been in the South, unless he had adopted the ingenious expe dient of the representative of one of your contem poraries, and published his letters in a local paper before he sent them to London. I Made my tour in the South as a neutral, but those who met me will do me the justice to admit that I never concealed my opinions, or simulated those which I did not feel, as my letters afterwards could have shown. I may claim for myself the credit of having spoken boldly and openly to all men—more than once or twice to the disturbance of the agreeable social relations which I held with men who were socially all I could wish, and whose kindness and courtesy—nay, more, • And all thatirm777ZtTet fr 7itigg censure of the Northern papers because I went to the South at all, and saw with my own eyes what they could not see, and did not take all their myths as gospel! Very soon after I arrived at Washing ton I was invited to the house of a Cabinet Minister, when I met a very energetic officer of the naval department, who asked me point blank. " In what state are their works at Memphis and Randolph ?" I replied, " I cannot answer you, sir. I visited the works as a neutral, and, as the correspondent of a neutral newspaper in a foreign country, I have com municated all I think proper to state on the sub ject." Now, at that very moment my letter was on its way to the Times, but, though I made use of con siderable detail in describing General Pillow's . works, I abstained from much which was learnt in confi dence, just as I refrained in the very same letter from stating many matters relating to Cairo. For instance, General Pillow told me in confidence he had ordered a chain cable from New Orleans to stretch across the Mississippi so as to bring up any steamers under his batteries, and possibly to sink them, but, as I did not see the cable, I did not think it right to mention the circumstance, any more than I did Mr. Benjamin's views as to the law of blockade, Mr. Jeffersons Davis's private re marks, or the little matters which are made known to the man, and not to the newspaper correspon dent. Now, it must be remembered that all I wrote to England from the South was new ; it was intelligence no Northern papers could give; it was notorious that I intended to send it to England. At that time direct intelligence flooded the land with light from the North, and any man could learn how many regiments had arrived at Wash ington, how many guns had been put in position or in the field, as clearly as he knew what Mrs. Lin coln said when she was buying a set of china in New York, or of what pattern the said set was. For all the American world I preserved unbroken silence as to what I saw in the South ; till my letters came back no one knew what I had seen. If any living man can prove that before I left New York I had expressed anything but wonder at the apathy and calm which existed there when my visit took place, or that before I visited the South, or when I was there, I ever said a word in appro bation of slavery, or expressed any opinion on either side in opposition to that which appears rather as a record of impressions than as an opinion from day to day as I passed through the country, then I submit to the necessary loss of the confidence you have placed in me and which you have obtained for me in this country. This is no light matter. The character of a newspaper correspondent may not be of so much worth in America to himself or to the journal he reprepents that so much type should be used in its vindication, but I am sure you will feel it is due to the paper I represent, and to him who here represents it, to say so much in reply to scandalous accusations and to imputations dis graceful only to those who use them, which have been freely used against me. If, as I had occasion to say once before, General Beauregard, General Lawton, Colonel Hardee, General Hebert, General Bragg, Mr. Walker (the Secretary of War for the Confederate States), General Pillow, on the one side, or General Prentiss, General M'Dowell, General Scott, or Mr. Secretary Cameron, on the other, can accuse me of breach of faith, it will be time for me to show I have never betrayed any confidence or forfeited the claims to trustworthi ness which the correspondents of the Times have gained in the Crimea, India, and Italy. I had no theories to maintain, no prejudices to justify. I neither believed that the United States represented the perfection of government, or that it was the coup nianque of mankind in self-government. I did not think that slavery was the unforgivable sin, or that it was the reproduction of the system under which the Fathers of the Primaeval World ad ministered their patriarchial rules. As things seemed to me, so I sought to describe them. The husk might be too thick for me to penetrate, but at least I could say what, as it appeared to me, were its colour, shape, substance, and nature. Because New York burst into a frenzy when Sumter was attacked, my letter describing its apathy was de nounced with acrimony on ex post facto grounds; because I expressed my belief that the Union, as it had been, was gone for ever, I was called a shal low observer by writers who are now declaring that unless the will of the people of eleven States is put to the sword the Union is lost ; beeaose I de pieced, or tried to depict, slavery as I found it to my senses—a cruel, cold, deadly ingratitude to (30d—and the plantation system as an organised outrage on human nature, I have been styled a spy, a traitor (and the Lord knows what besides, because the Southern journals do not circulate here), and it is asserted that I concealed or changed my opinions. 1 ° Contempsi Catilina gladios, non per tirnescan' tuos !" I shall say no more, nor shall anything tempt me again to make any rejoinder to the attacks which may, and no doubt will, be u.ide upon me, and of the wilful malice and persist t falsity of which I have already satisfied ry owe - _ mind not unreluctantly. There is no military movement here, but there is a good deal of discontent among the soldiery. The cause alleged for the mutiny of the 79th (Scotch) New York Regiment was their repugnance to serve under Mr. Daniel Sickles. As lam told, the President accepted the services of the Sickles Brigade under the idea that Mr. Sickles had been made a Brigadier-General of the State Militia by qifebSiernrniirtirlhestuft of 3revereiV , The Governor, however, refused to sign the commission of that gentleman, who is, therefore, without any proper authority to command. The scruples of the Scotch were, however, moral rather than military. General M'Glellan met the crisis with great vigour and has given a proof that he is not to be trifled with, which must produce a good effect on the army generally. The men have really nothing to com plain of—for they are well fed, and now they are well; paid—except of their own acts in selecting im proper officers. They expect manna from Heaven. Certainly they demand ice, water, milk, and such luxuries under circumstances quite exceptional, which would make a British grenadier or a French Jantassin be, thankful for bread, beef, and mutton. THE QUBEN'S VISIT TO IRELAND. (From the .Special Correspondent of the Times.) DUBLIN, AUG. 29. I said in my last letter that the Queen and the Royal party would spend Wednesday in privately viewing the grand scenery around Muckross, and only go upon the lake in the afternoon to witness the stag-hunt. To the intense disappointment ,of a great muster. of visitors, the programme thus laid down was, strictly adhered to and her Majesty passed the • morning quietly, walking about the grounds of Muckross, and visiting the ruins, and did not come upon the lake till long past foil. in the afternoon. It is perhaps quite needless to say that much before that hour every boat that it was safe to venture in at all, with very many in which it was scarcely prudent to embark, was upon the waters. Probably there were not less than 150 large' boats; and every one laden deep with ladies and gentlemen. Such a gathering had never before been seen at a stag-hunt at Killarney. Almost before twelve o'clock the great maws ;l of the craft were distributed along the shore of the lower lake under that grand range of moun tains known. as the Toomies, which are covered with a magnificent growth of trees from the water's edge up almost to the very crest of their misty sum mits. The occupants of each little vessel were of course in poisession of the most authentic and the most private information as to where the hurt was really to take place, and the result was that every bay and inlet along the shore from Glenna to Ben son's Point—a distance of some three miles, was thronged by noisy, joyous picnic parties hours be eq:Mws."lie-weelthers-t4ol.'kh C 10 1 1 0.Y4, 'fva."Alseautiratiy fine` and warm, and tfii.-Pirti of the mists on the mountains, and the lights and sha dows thrown as they drifted slowly across the sky, afforded endless varieties of tints, which it would seem that one could never tire of watching. Ap. parently, however, these glories possessed but small charms for the Irish visitors, who never took their eyes off the channel of the lake which winds past Glenna to Muekross, and down which het Majesty was expected to come. But 1 o'clock, 2 o'clock, and then 3 o'clock passed without any signs of the Royal party, and even Hibernian enthusiasm (for it was remarked what a very small number of Eng lish visitors were present) began to flag before the long deferred hope. Gradually the crowds of boats broke up and went gliding about the smooth water, some to the ruins and green glades of Innisfallen, some to the wonderfully picturesque, though small, waterfall known as O'Sullivan's Cascade, which pours down a rocky wooded glen between the Toomies. Soon after 4, Lord and Lady Castlerosse and family came upon the water, and on the first glimpse in the distance of the well-known barge, every boat on the lake assembled to meet it, and gave his Lordship a reception which was inferior in warmth and vehemence only to that afterwards ac corded to the Queen. There is no peer or landlord in all Ireland who is more popular than his Lordship, not alone among his own tenantry, but among the people of the whole district around the lakes. The appearance of his Lordship was taken as a certain omen that her Majesty would be present, and that the hunt would take place after all, both of which events had gradually come to be regarded as improbable in the extreme. But all doubt on this point was at last entirely set at rest by the 'nephews of O'Connell, who assured every one that there were at least three flue stags in the woods on the Toomies, and that Her Majesty would positively witness the hunt at 5. Unfortunately, only the former part of the announcement proved to be quite correct; Her Majesty came, and the hunt took place, but nobody saw it at all. Stag hunts at Killarney, under ordinary circumstances, are the most wonderfully exciting and beautiful scenes of the kind that can ever be witnessed, and the only misfortune is that they are rare in the extreme. Now, had Mr: Herbert or Lord Castlerosse wished a staghunt on,any ordinary day, and laid on Mr. O'Connell's fine pack of hounds in the Toomies woods, they would have driven a stag into the , water beyond all doubt. But in the case of a Royal staghunt so many precautions were taken that they spoilt the whole affair, and, as far as the Queen or visitors could tell, there was for them no staghunt at all. The woods of the Toomies are crowded with red deer, which go about in herds among the moun tains of Killarney, in ten times greater abundance than in any part of the Scottish Highlands, not even excepting the well kept Royal preserves of Aber geldie. But the crowds of boats and fireworks on the lake during the last few days had rather startled these herds, so that in order to insure the Vresenr,lt of at least one ani mal, an extra number of beaters w ere e mployed to ke e p them in the'woods, after coming down to the lake to drink, The result was, t h a t instead of one a g reat manyapparently were thus detained , and w hen the'aunt began on shore th e hounds broke up after different quarries, and cou ld not succeed in drivi - ng one into the water until after Her Majesty had left the lakes to return to Muckross. The im:enense crowd of boats also no doubt had its effee' in keeping the deer back, and most unquestionably the tremendous cheers which followed Her 'Majesty whenever her barge attemp ted to keep - up with the chase did much to spoil the day's sport. Of course the cheers were in the highest degree enthusiastic and loyal, but on such an occasion they were scarcely perhaps quite judi cious or well timed. Her Majesty, with all the Royal family, 'except ing his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and Prince Alfred, were upon the water so,'Jn after 5. They were seated in. Mr. Herbert' s barge, which Mr. Herbert steered himself. Dar' Ling along like an arrow in front of the Royal bargf 3 were the Prince of Wales and his sailor brethren, i n a beautiful Six" oared gig, rowed by a crew o 1 gentlemen . The heir which he guided its rapid course through the crowd - of other boats that thronged around her Ma jesty from all directions showed a dexterity in boat ing that, evening allowing for his careful teaching, was something surprising. Nineteen out of twenty of the people on the water did not recognise' their Royal Highnesses for some time, and as each boat had to take care of iLelf, and tro ono was particu lorly careful about *myth lug or anybody, it required no ordinary amount of adroit ness on th e p a rt of the Prince to avoid some awkward colli s i ons . The necks mations with which her Majesty was greeted were perfecty enthusiastic. All the boats' crews " tossed oars," all the passengers stood up uncovered, cheer ing and waving handkerchiefs till the echoes of Killarney were woke in all directions with beautiful acoustic effect certainly, but, as it turned out , w i t h unfortunate results as regarded the intended him r. Nor was the enthusiasm confined only to the arri vat of her Majesty. 'Wherever her boat moved the sa ura hearty uproarious, kindly recognition followed her throughout the day. Her Majesty seemed delighted with this welcome, for after passing down between the long flotilla of boats she returned up the lake again, and then passed down towards Benson's Point, keeping close in shore along the base of the Toomies, so that the people who had been waiting at the water's edge all day could see her closely and well. The kindness which her Majesty showed in this last respect was a theme of praise among the people everywhere. Even if her boat was in the very centre of the lake it turned at once close in shore whenever it approached a rocky point on which the peasantry were gathered, swarming in great black masses wherever there was room to stand. The hunt commenced soon after ti o'clock, when the shouts of the beaters on the hills came echoing -shrilly down the lakes. The dogs were laic('' - their Mepliay, as they strizek 4 the scent, soon that they were on the track. But, unfortunately, soon after it was equally clear that there were many tracks and many stags in the covert, for the hounds were following in at least three distinct parts of the mountains. Now and then they came down close upon the edge of the water, but when on these, occasions her Majesty's boat crept nearer to .the shore such a cheer arose among the visitors a& most effectually prevented the deer taking the water in that direction. Then the chase or chases would take another course, winding up the mountains, till the cries of the dogs could only be heard reverbe rating faintly, and the beaters could be discerned through glasses waving their arms and shouting as the deer headed up the hills towards them. For nearly two hours this lasted, the excitement in creasing as the stags could be heard making for the lake, and falling rapidly to zero when the hunt again turned inland. At last,when nearly 7 o'clock, her Majesty apparently gave up all hope of seeing the deer, and the Royal party were steered direct up the lakes for Muckross. In an instant all the boats of visitors followed in the same direction, and the coast thus left clear one of the stags at once took the water, far down the lake, with half a score of the dogs in full cry after him. Fortunately a boat was near at hand, and by the crew of this the fugi-• live animal was secured, blindfolded, bound, and hauled into the boat. He was then taken across the lake and turned adrift in another part of the moun tain. Another, lam told, escaped to the hills, and a third was overtaken by the dogs in 'the woods and pulled down in a minute, but of these captares and escapes none saw anything from the water,On the return to Muckioss, her Majesty. passed close to ,a group of. rocks knoww,as. the ",o...'Dona , h ague's 'Cellar."

At that hour, escorted. by a troop oZ. the Ist Royals, the Queen drove to.the station an open carriage, Mr. Herbert and LOrd Cai3tleri);sse riding on either side. There were great crows all along the route, who seemed quite " beside' them selves," so vehement were their uproarious demon strations of loyalty. A guard of honour of the 1 gth Royal Irish was drawn up in front of the station, where a great number of ladies and gentlemen were assembled to witnetaitaejsparture-;-..;,..-- Tr7l-.foughtai (chairionnorcl7Z Cloncurry, Mr. Morland, Mr. Ball, Mr. and Mr. Madins (directors), received her Mr.jesty and conducted her and the Royal Family to the State carriage. A most cordial leavetakin g was then exchanged between the Royal party .and Lord and Lady Castlerosse and Mr. and WErs. Herbert, to whom her Majesty again expressed her deep grati fication at her visit to Killarney. Just before one o'clock the train left, amid a scene of almost inde scribable enthusiasm. All the stations on the journey up were thronged with visitors. At Mallow there was a groat de monstration, and when the train stopped a "corps" of young ladies, all dressed in white, presented her Majesty with a number of splendid bouquets, all of which were most graciously accepted: The train reached Dublin before six o'clock, having performed the distance from Killarney (186 miles) in five hours and three minutes. During the whole of the visit the most ample information in the way of news of all that was passing in Eng land was constantly forwarded to her Majesty by the Magnetic Telegraph Company, and for I;his the Queen expressed her thanks before leaving, through Mr. Haughton, the chairman of the Railway Company. From the Kingsb ridge station, her Majesty and the Royal Family drove straight through Dublin to the Westland-row terminus. Along the streets the crowds, of course, were dense, and the enthusiasm some thing extraordinary—such as is rarely seen even in England. It was the same along the stations to Kingstown, and, if possible, still more strong at Kingstown itself, where the k embar -a ion at once took place, under a Royal salute from the vessels of war. The weatherrthough very fine, was also very rough for a sea voyage, so that it is not likely the Royal yacht will cross until the morning. From Holyhead her Majesty and the Royal Family will continue their Tourney direct to Balmoral. The Prince of Wales only remains behind to con tinue his military duties at the Curragh. If her Majesty is only half as well pleased with her visit as the Irish people are at its having• been made, Royal tours through Ireland will become as much things of course each autumn as the journeys to Osborne or Balmoral. There is not the least doubt but that the Queen has been very much gratified with her trip, and it is superfluous to say how much it has pleased the Irish people. DUBLIN, AUG. 30. Her Maje'sty remained all last night on board th© yacht in Kingston harbour, and started this morning, at 5 o'clock, for Holyhead, which was reached at a little before 9. Her Majesty remained all night at Holyhead, continuing her journey to Scotland this morning. Tomorrow morning she will arrive at Perth to breakfast, resuming her progress so os to reach Balmoral the same afternoon. ARRIVAL OF HER MAJESTY IN PERTH. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) PERTH, AUG. 31. The Queen arrived in this city at 7.52 a.m. Her Majesty partook of breakfast at the station, and proceeded northwards at 8.34 a.m. THE BAYSWATER TRAMWAY.—In pursuance of a resolution passed by a large majority at a public meeting convened by tb.at portion of the Bayswater inhabitants who are in favour 'of street railwaysfor the metropolitan suburban districts, A deputation, consisting of a number of gentlemen some of, !cons iderable local influence, waited upon th e Me tropolis Roads Commissioners at Whitehall, last week, and, the result of their interview has just transpired. It ap pda.rs that the deputation having presented a memorial, e.gned by 8,000 persons, praying not only that the line may . be continued, but extended to Shepherd's-bush, and bid other claims before three of the commissioners only, who had assembled to receive them, they were informed t hat no mee ting of the commissioners could by possibility be held, e ven if they were disposed to accede to the req uest of the deputation to reconsider their recent order for the removal of the tramway by the 4th October, until the 26th of that month, which would be too late. The rails would inevitably have to come up. So it is now a decided fact that the tram way' which has y iel ded a great return to the company owning it, will have t o b e lifted bs'the 4th day of Octobe T next at latest. most >as in .t for aged. aper.
