The object of this undertaking is to provide means of trans port at the terminal and intermediate stations along the lines of the Indian railways and steamers, similar to the establsh trtents of Messrs. Pickford and Co. and others engaged in connection with the various lines of railways in Great Bri tain, collecting ler despatch by rail, and distributing on its arrival the enormous amount of merchandise and produce conveyed upon these lines, for which the existing primit;ve native means of conveyance by bullock hackery are totally in adequate, and the native carriers possessing neither the capi tal, skill, nor enterprise required to organise the system necessary for the purpose. Messrs. Pickford and Co. have liberally placed at the Board's disposal all the valuable information which their long and successful experience enables them t supply, and have otherwise rendered to the Co npany and promised to Continue all the assistance in their power. Estimates, carefully prepared, based on a co m p ar i son o f the out; , oint - ,rs and returns of similar establishments in Eng land, with the present Indian rates, after making due allow ance for the additional exnenee of European superintendence and improved stook, and liberal deductions on account of de preciation and renewals, show a profit fully equal to 25 per cent. upon the capital employed. These estimates have been made upon the safe principle of calculating the expenditure in excess of what is anticipated, and the returns at the lowest existing Scale of cha ges ; and they are based upon the as sumption that only about 104,000 tons are carried annually by the Company at all their stations, while the export trade of Calcutta alone, for one year, exceeded 725.000 tons. .• A deposit of 10s. per share must be made on appication, and 10s. on allotment. If n allotment is made, the deposit will he returned without deduction. Payments may be made at the Head Office of the London and County Bank, or at any of its Branches. Full Prospectuses and Forms of Application may be ob tained of the Brokers, or at the Offices of the Company, G 2, Moorgate- stree t.

By Dr. LAWERT, 37, Bedford-square, London. Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh; Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, &o. The above work contains meat useful and interesting information on the physiological changes which occur in the Reproductive System during the periods of youth, puberty, and manhood ; and on the due attainment of that degree of functional vigour upon which the hopes of posterity depend. It also points out how all the attributes of Man hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they are lost, and how they can he recovered. It is free from the gross oca,ggerations, alarming descriptions, and dangerous remedies so generally resorted to by persons, w h o, prac tising with false medical qualifications, inflict most serious injuries, and render judicious treatment frequently abortive. The Author is the only legally qualified practitioner whose name stands on the Medical Register (the only true test of medical qualification), who has been exclu sively engaged for a series of years in the treatment of the 'carton 4 functional disorders of the nervous and reproductive system, which, owing to the treat discove r ies o f mo d ern science, are rendered subservient to a rational, simple, and easy mode of treatment.

STAMPED sd. present moment, is a significant mark of esteem towards a Minister under whose direction the Rus sian Universities made considerable prop less. Another proof of sympathy for the Universities has bee n g i ven b y t h e Al exan d e r Lyceum, which was founded by the Emperor Alexander in 1811, and which held a few days ago its first " jubilee." On this occasion 6,000 roubles were subscribed for a new scholarship at the University of St. Peters burg. The Alexander Lyceum is, after the Univer sities, the most important educational establishment in St. Petersburg. As there had been some talk of assimilating the Universities of Russia to those of England, I may say, for the sake of comparison, that the Alexander Lyceum is in certain respects the Russian Eton or Harrow. It is, above all, a school for the children of the Russian aristocracy, who are being brought up with a view to State ser vice. The poet Poushkin, his friend and associate in many literary enterprises, Baron Delvig, and most of the distinguished statesman and diploma tists who have appeared in Russia during the last 40 years, were educated at the Alexander Lyceum. At the jubilee banquet nearly all the Ministers were present, and it is said that General Ignatieff ex pected an invitation, which, however, he did not receive. All the letters from St. Petersburg that have re cently appeared in the limes have passed the cen• sorship, with the obliteration of only two or` ifttEr short paragraphs (those in which the Grand Duke Nicholas is spoken of, and in which the contents of the secret journal are given) in the whole correspond ence. I have heard it remarked that Count Putiatin ought not to be considered answerable for the new University regulations, inasmuch as they are not of his making. At least, however, he undertook the responsibility of carrying them out. In a letter about the University of Moscow, which has not yet reached St. Petersburg, I have spoken of the late Professor Granoffsky as having been appointed during the present reign. This is an error. He received his appointment as Historical Lecturer under the Emperor Nicholas, and was the chief sup port of the Moscow University at a period when the position of an independent Professor was one of great difficulty and danger. MR. BOUCICAULT AND TilE 11?..7,NC8 ADAPTER OF " COLLEEN BAIVN." The theatrical critic of the Opinion Nationale, M. Francisque Sarcey, publishes two very piquante letters written to him respectively by M. Dion Boucicault, the author of " Colleen Bawn," and M. d'Ennery, the well-known dramatic writer, who adapted the leading incident of that most successful drama for the French stage, in a piece altogether re-written and produced, about a month ago, at the Ambigu Comique under the title of the " Lake of Glenaston." The " Lake of Glenaston" did not find much favour at the hands of the French critics generally, and it was in particular very severely cut up by the writer of the theatrical articles in the Moniteur, who treated it as the joint production of M. d'Ennery and M. Boucicault. Thereupon M. Boucicault wrote to the Al oniteur (which did not insert it) the following letter, now published by the Opinion Nationale:— _ _ Hereford House, London, Oct. 28. The Moniteur of October 22 contains an article on the "Lake of Glenaston," a new drama by M. d'Ennery. In reply to your censure of my part of this work, I am under the necessity of stating that the drama which you have analysed is altogether M. d'Ennery's, with the single ex ception of the drowning scene, which is of my invention. The manager of the Ambigu Comique Theatre proposed to me to play my " Colleen Bawn" in Paris, and offered me M. d'Ennery's assistance for its production. I cheer fully availed myself of this opportunity of being presented to the Parisian public, and I sent a French translation of my drama to the theatre. M. d'Ennery never allowed me to take any part in the composition of the " Lake of Glen aston." He did not even show me his manuscript, and never put himself in communication with me in any way what ever. I went to Paris for the purpose of arranging the drowning scene, and in the hope of seeing M. d'Ennery, or at least of obtaining some news or my work. Having learned that my fellow labourer (collaborateur) had resolved to depart entirely from my drama, I protested in writing against this injustice. My protest met with no answer. I can accept no part in the merit which the "Lake of Glenaston" may have, and you will allow me therefore to decline any part of your criticism concerning it. Accept, monsieur, the assurance of my most distihguished sentiments, DION BOLICICAULT. Before inserting this letter M. Sarcey thought fit to send a copy of it to M. d'Ennery, with a re• quest for an explanation, and he received from that gentleman the following reply : Monsieur, —I send you in great haste the information you ask for. The manager of the Ambits Comique lately saw a piece in Loudon, which seemed to him far from good, but which contained a situation and a tableau that all London admired. People rushed and struggled and fought at the door of the English theatre to witness this scene in the water, and the French manager conceived the idea that he could make something of this dramatic situation. He applied to me to adapt it for our stage. Ilis opinion, which, after reading M. Boucicault's piece, I entirely shared, was that it should be completely remodelled, only the lake tableau and two or three other scenes being retained. The rest of the work appeared to us to be written in such a way that it would have obtained no success before a French audience. The task which I was to undertake constituted what the international treaty calls—l don't very clearly know why— "an appropriation made with good faith," and in such a case M. Boucicault would, according to the treaty, have been entitled to no share whatever in the author's profits. f, however, told M. Chilly that I would not so treat the matter. _ _ _ Upwards of 100 of rt* works have been played in Lon don without even so much trouble being taken as to change the name of the characters ; and nobody ever took the trouble, either, to call upon me to pay any money. But France has an old habit of responding English ways of dealing (inauvais precedes) by delicacy and courtesy, and I would not depart from this honourable tradition. Our ancestors, when the English and French were about to fire bullets at one another, said, " After you, Messieurs les Anglais." In these days, when disinterestedness and gentlemanly-feeling are in question, we say, " Before you Messieurs les Anglais." I therefore told the manager of the Ambigu Comique that I must be at liberty to rewrite the piece entirely in my own way ; but that I should certainly make over to M. Boucicault the half of that proportion of the receipt which according to the stipulations made with the committee of authors, falls due to the author of every piece played at the Ambigu. I wrote the piece accordingly ; you, monsieur, know what it is; and, to enable you to judge between M. Boucicault's production and mine, I cannot do better than send you the translation of the English drama which was sent to Paris by M. Boucicault himself. M. Boucicault complains that he was not able to see me and had no opportunity of working with me. If M. Boucicault had taken the trouble to address him self to me directly—if he had asked mo for a meeting, I should have been delighted to see him, and to have made the acquaintance of the fortunate writer who has succeeded in fishing up 900,000 f., of author's rights, from the bottom of our lake. If he had asked me to work with him—if he had proposed that we should reconstruct together the drama which he himself borrowed from a novel, my answer would have been that the translation which he sent to Paris was his part of the labour. And to reassure him as to the way in which I should deal with his piece, I should have adzied this :—M. Emile de Girardin did not hesitate to confide to me a play of that eminent authoress called Madame de Girardin, and he did me the honour to trust to my experience as to all the altera tions to be made. Mr. Edmund About, whose " Genuine" I adapted for the theatre, would not see the piece until it was played,and the compliments which he was pleased to pay me would haN e embarrassed a humility more humble than mine. I wrote a drama from Eugene Sue's "Wandering Jew," and the celebrated novelist was so satisfied with my woi k that in my absence ho insisted upon a larger share of th profits than I had required being set apart for me. To conclude, I had the happy audacity to re-arrange a work of our great Balzac, a piece which the manager of every theatre in Paris, from the Theatre Fran9aise.down to the Ambigu and Gaits, had pronounced to be unrepresent able. You know that for the last 12 years the public has never ceased to applaud " Mercadet." Such names, I think, might well have reassured the Eng lish author, and M. Boucicault would perhaps net have re fused to join such company, Accept, monsieur, my warmest salutationsp. ,ENNE y. _ The critic of the Orimon Nationale, having read THE SUN LONDON, WE DN ESDAY EVE T G, NU VEAL BER 13, 1861. 1V ONINA77ON OF SIL6RIPFS. Yesterday being the morrow of St. Martin, the ceremony of nominating the Sheriffs for the several counties of England and Wales for the ensuing year, Cornwall and Lancashire excepted, the nomination with respect to which devolves upon his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, took place in the Court of Exchequer after the ordinary business had concluded. Shortly after 2 o'clock the Lord Chan cellor, accompanied by the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, wearing his robes of office, Chief Baron Pollock, Mr. Justice Erle, Mr. Justice Williams, Mr. Baron Channel], Mr. Justice Keating, Lord Granville, Sir G. Grey, Mr. A. Helps, and. the offi cers from the Privy Council-office, entered and took their seats. The Queen's Remembrancer then ad ministered the customary oath to the members of the Council, and the Juelges having presented their returns of persons liable to serve the office of She riff, the Queen's Remembrancer read aloud the list of nominations as follows : A 11,1'1114 AND .HUN Al? 1 In assuming his office as-Lieutenant of Hungary General Palffy made the following speech:— " Gentlemen, Members of the Council of Lieutenancy,— His Majesty the Emperor having appointed me his Lieu tenant in Hungary, I consequently assume the direction of affairs, and am happy to find 'myself amidst men whose loyalty to the Emperor and whose good intentions for the real welfare of our country do not admit of doubt. Speech hs.s been much abused of late; the confidence of his Majesty and the interests of the country invite us to act. Therefore, in a few words let me say, you will know me by my acts, as I shall judge you by yours. "I understand the difficulties you have hitherto had to contend against, but I expect that while the constitutional powers of the Royal Council of the Lieutenancy of Hun gary are modified, even temporarily, you will zealously fulfil your duties as devoted councillors and officials of his Ma jesty. Moreover, each of you, gentlemen, and every one who, faithful to the character of the nation transmitted to us by our forefathers, endeavours to co-operate with me for the welfare of the Sovereign and of the country, for the security of our own interests and of the national interests, can communicate with me personally or by letter on any subject whatsoever, giving me counsel or expressing a wish, and every one may confidently rely that he will be frankly received, and his requests fully considered. " You will find that in me you will have not only a just chief but a sincere and a kind friend. By a firm will, sin cere intentions, and united efforts, we will succeed, with the support of the reasonable majority of our compatriots, in restoring the confidence of his Najesty in this country, and public order, that has been shaken in a lamentable manner in the course of a year, to the detriment of numerous p, vate interests. " I hope that, under the inspiration of the reasonable spirit in which enactments will be made, we shall be able to prepare the ground for the interests of our country to be settled in a durable manner, with the co-operation of the Diet, and that I may be able to return to my military duties, to which I am devoted, and which I have relinquished from respect to my master and from love to my country. The welfare of the country has always been, and ever will be, in proportion to the fidelity and confidence of the people towards the King. " Let us then unite our efforts to attain the object I have just indicated, and let us endeavour to revive, in every class of the population, the ancient spirit and the staid character of which our ancestors were so justly proud, for it is only on those conditions that the paternal intentions of his Ma jesty relative to the constitutional regime can be realised." Bullier's lithographic sheets publish the follow ing letter from Pesth of the 7th inst., which con tains some particulars relative to Count Palffy, the new Governor-General of Hungary " I wrote to you to say that martial law was inevitable under existing circumstances. From this day Hungary is placed under that regime. Field-Marshal Count Maurice Palffy-ab-Erdod, who has been appointed to exercise the dictatorship in Hungary, is a descendant of one of the most illustrious families, which has produced a great number of patriots, statesmen, warriors, and, under the reign f Maria Theresa, Palatines of Hungary. The present possessor of the title belongs no longer to the country, except by the name he bears. Tie has proved himself the enemy of his country, and he fought against her in 1849, as aide-de. camp of Prince Windischgratz. He is known to be a man of a coarse, obstinate, and arrogant disposition. He is hated by his subalterns for his supercilious conduct. He has quitted the army twice in consequence of having a difference with officers of high families, though holding inferior rank. Although all the decrees of the Government are accepted by the people with the greatest indifference, because every body knows that the present system cannot last long, either because the Government itself will retrace its steps, or that a revolution will overthrow the existing institutions, it was thought that the appears nee of a constitution would have been maintained ; but the extensive powers granted to the military governor constitutionally in Hungary was an empty phrase by the very fact that the positions through which the constitution might enter are occupied by abso lutism. A military dictator with absolute power, not re sponsible to any but a dead body, such as the Hungarian Aulic Chancellery, concentrating, moreover in his hands the political administration, that of jettice and finance, will extend his authority to the trial of all offences. The press likewise, is placed under his jurisdiction. Three newspapers were seized yesterday." complete fiasco. There were a great many more sympathetic calls of " Graziani" than there were antipathetic shouts of" Preobrajenski;" and so voci ferously are the favourite singers summoned before the curtain by the Russians that a stranger to St. Petersburg and to the Italian Opera might have fancied that " Preobrajenski" was the name, not of an unpopular regiment, but of a very popular vocalist. In the meanwhile a great many officers of the other regiments of the Guard are not pleased at the part played by their Preobrajenski comrades, and say that, if enacted at all, it should have been left to the gendarmerie and police. The official journals of yesterday contain an ac count of the attack of the soldiers and police upon the students, also on the 24th October, at Moscow. I was not in Moscow on that particular day, but was there a few days afterwards, and spoke with several persons who had witnessed the whole affair. The students of Moscow appear to have behaved less peaceably than those of St. Petersburg, and this may partly be explained by the fact that in the for mer capital, whether rightly or wrongly, the pro fessors did not support them, and, consequently, could not with any effect advise them. Neverthe less, in a country so proud of its order and of the prestige of its government as Russia, it is scanda lous that no means could be found for dispersing a few hundred young men but such as were em ployed on the occasion in question, when from 20 to 30 unarmed persons were wounded by infantry and cavalry. According to the Government news papers the greater number of wounded were found on the side of the military, and, as if to give some look of possibility to this most improbable assertion, it is stated that on the place of conflict tbree swords or daggers and 58 sticks were found. The police can find daggers whenever it chooses to drop them, but it can never make reasonable persons believe that 500 students assembled in front of the Governor- General's house with the intention of fighting the army of Moscow, or that, in a collision between an unarmed crowd and a body of Russian soldiers, three of the latter to only two of the former could be wounded. This is like the Wilna story of two months since, when we were assured that a few stones thrown by the Poles did more harm than discharges of musketry on the part of the Russians. The Moscow Police Journal admits that several students were arrested on the 24th who happened to be passing along the Tverskoi, and who had nothing whatever to do with disturbance in front of the Governor-General's. The fact is, the police acted on that day as if seized with a sort of aggres sive panic, and went wildly about arresting students who were quietly walking or driving along the streets, as if merely to punish them for belonging to the University. The official list of wounded at Moscow includes two students, one of whom was hurt by a horse, and was sent off to the hospital, and two gendarmes who were wounded in the face, and of whom one is also in the hospital." The third of the injured Bend armes received a severe sword cut on the belt of his caftan and lost his brass buckle. Hopes are enter tained of its recovery. The number of arrests effected on the 24th amounts, according to the Moscow Police Journal, to 340. A special committee was formed the same day, and decided that 39 of the prisoners, including 22 students and 17 lecture frequenters and persons not belonging to the University, must to detained. The remaining 301 were set at liberty after they had been identified and their names taken down by the police. At St. Petersburg it is difficult to ascertain the exact number of students confined in the fortress. A placard, bearing the words "University of St. Petersburg," was posted the other night on the fortress gate, but the author of the inscription was caught and shut up in the new University himself. It is a dangerous game to endeavour to temper Russian despotism even with epigrams. Accord ing to the official accounts, the number of students removed a few days since from the fortress to the prison of Cronstadt amounts to 283. There were about 70 students in the fortress a week before the arrival of this last batch, who were seized in front of the University on the 24th ult., and during the last two or three weeks a great many arrests have been made privately. Of the 400 students who sent in their petitions for readmission too late all have had their names inscribed on the police-books and in a special register, while a certain number have been ordered to leave St. Petersburg. Those only are allowed to remain who have parents, or a married sister, or a big brother established here, and willing o become answerable for their conduct. lam told that this measure will have the effect of sending away a great many Russians belonging to the pro vinces, and nearly a hundred Poles. There are now two commissions appointed to examine the imprisoned students, and find out what they can against them. It is just possible that they may be all liberated, for it is said to be very diffi cult to prove a serious accusation against any of them. The Cronstadt Commission has shown much ingenuity in dividing its prisoners into as many as 27 categories. There is a category for students who, on the 24th ult., went to the University with the matriculation-books in their pockets, a category for those who had left them at home, a category for those who had asked for them and had not yet re ceived them, a category for those who had never asked for them, and did:not want them, &3. The St. Petersburg Commission has to deal with three classes of offenders—those who were present at the last assembly held within the University after such assemblies had been forbidden, those who joined in the procession to the house of Gene ral Philipson, and those who collected in front of the University after the University had been closed. It is said on behalf of the students that it was never notified to them formally and officially that the University assemblies were no longer to be held ; that they went to General Philipson's house without any pm-arranged design, and simply to ask him why the lectures were suspended ; and that the meetings outside the University were at least very far from being riotous assemblages. lam told that the students, when questioned as to the part they took in the procession, answered one and all that they knew nothing about any procession. " I found the University shut, and naturally went to the curators to ask the reason," is what each of them replies. " A good many of my fellow-students seemed to be going there at the same time. If we happen to have walked together it was for the sake of conversation." Fortunately, it is quite impossible any longer to charge the students with the publication of the journal, or series of " proclamations," called Great _Russia. A new number of this mysterious, and now quite revolutionary print, has just appeared, while the suspected editors of it have for the last three weeks been in the fortress. From this we may form some notion of the value of the secret police in Russia. The present position of the St. Petersburg Uni versity is this :—lt is open, but the majority of the Professors are too ill to attend. Those who are perfectly well find the lecture-rooms, for the most part, deserted, One eloquent Professor held forth last week to an audience of two. In the midst of his discourse it suddenly struck him that it was producing very little effect on his supposed hearers. He questioned them on the subject, when they both replied by signs that they were deaf and dumb. Of the 650 students who sent in their petitions for re admission, or whose parents sent them in for them, at least 200 are now in prison ; and oat of the re maining 450 (if so many) not 50 attend or even make a semblance of attending such lectures as are still delivered. The late Minister of Public Instruction, M. Kavalevski, has been elected by unanimity Pre sident of the Economic Society,—a very important association (founded by the Empress Catherine), to which are affiliated some of the best charitable and educational establishments in Russia.

A letter from St. Petersburg, dated Nov. 5, says: —The day after the Emperor's arrival in St. Peters burg, when no one knew what his Majesty would do in the affair of the University, and when many persons thought, and every one hoped, that he would take some decisive step on behalf of the stu dents, a good story was circulated about the instruc tions sent from the Crimea, by telegraph, to Gen. Tgnatieff, and of the manner in which that func tionary interpreted them. The following is said to have been the first despatch forwarded by the general Great disturbances at the University. The students will listen to no one; neither to the Rector nor the Curator, nor even to me. What is to be done ?" To which the Emperor is reported to have an swered : " Make every effort to calm the students. Treat them like a father." General Ignatieff telegraphed : g , I have obeyed your Majesty's commands. The students are in the fortress." " What do you mean ? You have committed some dread • ful blunder," was, according to popular rumour, the Emperor's reply, When General Ignatieff went to meet his Sove reign at the first station on the St. Petersburg and Moscow Railway he was very coldly received, and, finding that his conduct i n co nnection with the "demonstrations" at th e U n i vers ity was highly disapproved, is said to h ave o b serve d i n self-de fence : " I endeavoured, Sire, to execute your orders. I arrested 283 students last Thursday, and many of them are badly wounded. Your lamented father could scarcely have done more." The explanation of poor General Ignatieff's supposed mistake is to be found in the fact that there are no articles in the Russian language, and that in such phrases as " like my father," or " as my father" (would have done), the possessive pronoun is usually omitted. On Thursday the Council of State assembled, the Emperor presiding. Count Putiatin read a report on the disturbances at the University, and in doing so is said to have been repeatedly interrupted and corrected by other Ministers. The Minister of In struction having concluded his narrative, the Em peror asked him what he proposed to do with the students. The gallant admiral replied, more in the spirit of a courtier than of ,a statesman, that that must depend on the will of his Majesty. Count Schouvaloff, the head of the secret police, suggested that a general amnesty should be pro claimed: The beauty of this suggestion lies in its proceeding from the very man under whose special instructions General Patktai and his subordinates have lately been acting. General Ignatieff recommended that the students now under arrest should, for the sake of their "moral sobriety," be sent to serve for a certain time in the army. However well this piece of ad vice might have been received seven years ago, I need scarcely remark that there is not the remotest probability of its being acted upon now. Finally the Council broke up without any decision being come to in respect to the students actually imprisoned, and without any alteration in the new University regulations being proposed. On Saturday there was a grand parade, at which the Emperor bestowed especial commendation on the Preobrajensky Regiment and the Regiment of Finland. He also thanked the assembled generals in a very marked manner for the devotion testified by them under all circumstances, and added, " I did not believe what was told me about the army; now I am more than ever sure it was untrue!" The officer commanding the battalion which in cludes the two companies of the Pt eobrajenski Re giment, present the Thursday before last in front of the University, has been made one of the Em peror's aides-de-camp. The regiment in question, which was formed by Peter the Great in his youth, and which was recruited from among the children of the village of Preobrajenski, near Moscow, is the o ol t d h e e s r t n i ig n h t t he to ß g u iv ss e ia th n e a o r fa m e y e . r s 0 I f t t h w e a p s r e o b resolved rai en th e sk i Regiment a charivari at the Italian Opera.

Jane Esslcr—yet it is a chef d'a'utre in comparison with that " shapeless mon. strosity" called " Colleen Bawn!" I have seen neither of the two pieces, and consequently have no opinion as to their respective merits, but it occurs to me that the rights of the question be tween the French and English dramatist depend upon other considerations. M. S . arcey pro cuds to censure M. l 3 oucicault's conduct as incon sistent, as well as unhandsome, in repudiating hos tile criticism of the "Lady of Glenaston," while he receives half the uthor's profits. lam disposed to think there is something to be said on the other side, and M. Boucicault will probably find means to say it. The money rights and the literary repu tation of an author are two things essentially differ ent in their nature, and one is surprised to see such. a champion of his country's chivalry as M. d'Ennery mixing them up together. It is quite clear that the use of M. Boacicault's name has contributed very materially to the success of the " Lake of Glenaston" in Paris, and it may well be that M. d'Ennery has borrowed the leading idea of " Colleen Bawn" in such a way as to give M. Boucicault a legal claim to his part of the author's rights, while, at the same time, the latter may be justified in explaining to the public the small part which he was allowed to take in putting the piece upon the French stage. There is nothing discourteous in M. Boucicault's letter. He does not say a word against the " Lake of Glenaston ;" he only desires to make it known, since French critics have run it down very severely, that he did not write it, and this M. d'Ennery admits. But then M. d'Ennery says, "I volunteered to pay you money which I and - therefore you are a brute of an Englishman for not allowing your name to be responsible for my writing." I cannot think this either a logical or a chivalrous argument. HEALTH OF LONDON DURING 2HE WEEK. (From the Registrar-General's Weekly Return.) The London returns for the week that ended last Saturday exhibit a great increase. The deaths,which were less than 1,100 in each of the last three weeks of October, rue to 1,251 in the first week of Nov. Last week they exceeded by 41 the number which would have been returned if the average rate of mortality had prevailed. There is au increase under many heads in the Table of Fatal Diseases. In the last two weeks scarlatina rose from 94. to 111, whooping. cough from 35 to 45, phthisis from 124 to 159, apoplexy from 18 to 33, disease of the heart from 47 to 67, pneu monia from 70 to 89, and disease of the liver from 8 to 21. Scarlatina appears to be very prevalent in some parts of the metropolis. Four deaths occurred from it in the North-west sub-district of Chelsea, 4 in Camden-town, 7 in the East sub-district of Isling ton, 4 in South Hackney, 8 in Clerken well, 4 in the sub-district of Whitechapel Church, 4 in that of St. Paul's (St. George's in-the-East), and 9 in the two Waterloo-road sub-districts of Lambeth. There were 19 deaths from diphtheria. There was 1 from privation. Three children died of diphtheria in the Children's Hospital, Great Ormond-street. The Registrar of the first Waterloo-road sub-district records 4 deaths from scarlatina, and reports that Sea Lion-place and Brad-terrace are in bad sanitary condition. He states that recent railway operations in that neigh bourhood had deprived the people of the little light and air they formerly possessed. In the sub-district of Woolwich Dockyard, in a house 2, Andrew's buildings, 4 children of one family have died since Oct. 13-1 of cholera, 3 of scarlatina; and 2 others are now suffering from fever. Last week the births of 840 boys and 870 girls, in all 1,710 children, were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the year 1851.60 the average number was 1,647. COMPOSITION OF TIIE THAMES WATER IN 1860. Dr. Letheby, the medical officer of health to the city, has prepared a set of tables which exhibit the mean composition of the water of the Thames for the whole of the year 1860, as it was obtained at high tide at London-bridge in mid-stream and at 6 feet from the shore on the city side. The results are also stated for each month and each quarter of the year. The analysis shows the several proportions of organic and mineral matter in dissolution, and those of organic and mineral matter in suspension ; the ammonia, the combined sulphuric acid, and alkaline chlorides. The " appearance on standing," odour of the water, colour of deposit, have been observed and the results as ascertained at different times are seen in connexion with the highest and mean tem perature of the river, and with the rain-fall. The rain-fall of 1860 was rather large.; it amounted to 27 inches, and the volume of the river was in consequence more than usually adequate to resist the current of sea water, only a small proportion of which advanced with the tide to London-bridge. For this reason the composition of the water in that year may be fairly taken to represent the normal condition of the river, and to furnish a standard with which the water as obtained at similar times and places in subsequent years may be compared. In the year the mean quantity of matter in mid stream was 38,6 grs. in au imperial gallon, of which 32.2 grs. were dissolved, 6'4 grs. suspended. The proportions were rather less at six feet from the shore. Of the 38.6 grs., 33.9 grs. were mineral, 4.7 grs. organic. The monthly means of total quantity rose to 57.2 grs. in August, and 67.6 grs. in Sep tember, and fell to 26 grs. in December. Though the mean temperature of the water was higher in July than in August and September, the quantity of matter was then much less than it was in either of the two subsequent months, and even less than it was in May, when the temperature of the water was much lower, but the rain-fall considerable. In August and September there was an increase in dissolved organic constituents, but the augmented weight of matter was found almost entirely in the alkaline chlorides. The suspended matter is subject to great varia tion. Dr. Letheby states that "it averages about six. grains to the gallon, but during strong winds and heavy seas, as at the equinoxes, the proportion rises to 14 or 15 grs. per gallon. It consists for the most part of finely divided clay from the shores of the river, and of living organisms of the diatomacions class, as navicula and bacillaria. There is also a small proportion of sewage matter, as broken up muscular tissues, and the cellular tissue of wheat, as well as the peculiar yellow fungus which is cha racteristic of sewage." lie adds that " the condition of the river during the summer of 1860 presented a marked contrast to that of 1858 and 1859, when the proportions of dis• solved constituents ranged from 158 to 410 gre. per gallon, of which from 16 to 23 were organic, and the odour was most offensive. The circumstances which determine the production of this effluvium are the presence of sewage mixed with large quan tities of sea water, and a high temperature." At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29 460 inches. The barometrical readings rose to 29.86 inches on Monday, and fell to 29 21 inches on Fri day. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 42 deg., which is 34 deg. below the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr.. Glaisher). The mean daily temperature was 6 and The 6 d lowesteg. b elcw n t i h g e h averages ttem peraotiu. temperature e ou w r days of Monday, or 2 . 8 deg. below the freezing point of 9 0 f 2 the d e week. o n t f day. water.
