" 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 resemole 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.

The total number of deaths registered in London in the week that ended last Saturday was 1,210, and was almost the same as that of the preceding week. The uniformity of the rate of mortality during the last eight weeks is worthy of remark. In the weeks corresponding with last week of the ten years 1851-GO the average number of deaths was 1,114, which, with a correction for increase of population, becomes 1,225. The actual mortality is therefore below the estimated amount, but only to a small extent. Though it has been below the average during the last two months, the difference is now much less than it was imme diately after the high mortality of the early part of the year had subsided. Eighty-three deaths from whooping-cough and 14 from croup were recorded last week. The cor rected average for whooping-cough is 62. It seems to prevail in Pancras and Islington, Limehouse, and in the Kent and Borough-road sub-districts. Eigh teen children died of measles, and nearly a third fart of these in Kentish-town. There were 22 deaths from scarlatina. and 12 from diphtheria; 6 from syphilis, all of which last occurred to infants' Seven nonagenarians died in the week, the oldest of whom was a woman, aged 94 years. A girl, aged 11 months, died from enlargement of the spleen. Towards the end of last year she had lived some time in the Essex marshes. A man was poisoned by chloride of zinc taken by mistake for gin. A boy, aged 14 years, was suffocated by th e fumes of sulphur in a room for dyeing wool in which he was sleeping. Last week the births of 1,007 boys and 954 girls, in all 1,961 children, were registered in London. in the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1851-60 the average number was 1,713. At the Royal Obiervatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 30.128 in. The barometrical readings fell from 30-25 in., on Tuesday, to 29.97 in. on Saturday, having been above 30 in. from the morning of the 6th inst. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 454 deg., which is 0.7 deg. below the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glai sher). The difference between the mean dew-point temperature and air temperature was 5.3 deg:, ex hibiting the degree of dryness of the air. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 82, com plete saturation being represented by 100. The air was dry on Saturday, the humidity hating fallen from 97 at the beginning of the week to 68 at the end of it. The thermometer in the shade rose to its highest point on Tuesday, 61.8 deg. ; it fell to its lowest on Saturday, 32.5 deg. The extreme range in the week was, therefore, 29.3 deg. The mean daily range was 15.4 deg. On Saturday a thermometer on the grass fell to 22 deg. The temperature of the water of the Thames was 49.1 deg. The wind blew from the north-east at the beginning of the week; afterwards, generally from the east. There was no rain measured.

On Monday the important operation was com menced of suspending the wire between Edinburgh Castle and the Calton-hill, which is to be the means of discharging at 1 o'clock, daily, a signal gun from the Castle, the time being given by the elec tric clock in the Royal Observatory, Calton-hill. The distance in mid air f rom the turret at the Argyll battery to Nelson's Monument, Calton-hill , where a time-ball signal has 1300 in operation for several years, is 4,200 feet, above three-quarters of a mile, and over that distance the wire has been suspended without a rest. It was at one time in tended that the wire should be the medium of an electric current passing along simultaneously with the dropping of the time-ball, and discharging the gun at the Castle; but the plan has been changed, and, instead, a clock has been fitted up beside the gun, the movement of which is, by means of the wire, to be controlled by the electric clock in the Observatory. The timepiece thus regulated drops at the proper moment a small weight, which touches a lever, the action of which liberates a heavy weight, and the fall of the latter releases the lock, and the fulminating powder in the fuse ignites by this action and discharges the gun. The action of the whole mechanism is instanta neous, and all that the gunner has to do pre viously is to place the heavy weight so as to be caught by the small lever moved by the action of the clock, and to insert the fuse in the touch hole of the gun. The suspending of the wire, at an elevation of from 150 to 200 feet, was one of considerable difficulty. It was commenced at four o'clock on Monday morning by paying out from the Castle, and in the course of its progress to the Calton-hill, which was not reached till about one o'clock, four rests were employ ed—namely, at the head of the Mound, on the roof of the railway station, on the new buildings, North-bridge, and on the Prison buildings. The wire was carried for ward from station to station by means of a rope drawn by seamen and others, and at length the end was fastened in safety at Nelson's Monument, where it was brought into connexion with the wire from the Observatory to the time-ball signal. After the cable had been thus swung in five different portions, the operation of tightening it and raising it in mid air was commenced. Considerable difficulty was experienced in clearing the trees in Princes-street gardens, and various preparations throughout the line caused no little delay. After the operation had made some progress it was found necessary to post pone till next morning the final raising of the wire, which was to be accomplished by coiling it round the drum in the Castle turret till it became straightened in the air. It was originally suggested that the gun itself should be placed on the Calton hill, but it was feared that its discharge would affect the instruments at the Observatory' imme diately adjacent, IAILW. GREAT INDIAN • PENINSULA RAILWAY COMPANY. The twenty-third report of the directors of this company states that a further portion of 531 miles of the company's railway was opened for traffic on the 28th January last, making a total of 3501 miles now being worked. The new sections consist of 22 miles from Sharpoor to Kussarah at the foot of the Thull Ghat in the Concan, and of 311 miles from Egutpoora, at the summit of the same Ghat, to Nassick, in the Deccan. In the course of the ap proaching summer an additional opening of 861 miles from Nassick to Chalesgaum, on the eastern border of Kandeish, is expected. Intelligence has reached the directors that the Bombay cotton dealers, desiring to take advantage at the earliest period of the facilities afforded by the railway for carrying, on their trade, made arrangements, imme diately on the opening of the line to Nassick, for the erection at that station of sheds and other con veniences, and that the cotton traffic is, by , their agency, likely to be much encouraged. Since the opening to Nassick, in January, the general traffie of the line shows a marked improvement. On the present occasion the traffic in the seventh week after the opening showed a rate per mile exceeding that of the traffic in the corresponding week of the previous year to the extent of 22,14 per cent., the average mileage receipt of the seven weeks having been somewhat in excess of that of the correspond ing period of last year. The - gross receipts of the half-year amounted to £95,243 155."1.0d., and the expenditure to £59,707 135., leaving the sum of £35,536 2s. 10d. available as net profit to be carried to the credit of the company's interest account with Government. The total number of passengers car ried in the half-year was 831,864,1, being an increase of 228,942 on the number carried in the last half of the previous year. Of this increase 223,685 were fourth-class passengers. This class was introduced in the middle of October as an experiment for six months, out of deference to the views of the Bom bay Government, who stated that they would be ready at the expiration of the period to consider whether the rate charged should not be raised. The directors will continue to watch the experi ment closely, and at .the proper time will propose whatever rates they may find most conducive to the interests of the company. A very satisfactory fea ture in the traffic results of the half-year is the in crease of 3s. ld. in the , average receipt per ton of public merchandise carried, the average receipt having been 12s. 10Id. per ton against 9s. 90. per ton in the previous year. At the same time the receipt per ton from the' company's permanent way materials fell from Bs. 31d. in 1859, to 43. 84d. in 1860; the proportion of company's materials to the total weight carried having been in the last half year 27 per cent. Although the per centage of the expenditure to the receipts is equal to 62.69 per cent., or 4.31 per cent. beyond what it was in 1859, when viewed by the railway mile and by the train mile, the working expenses contrast most favourably for last half-year, having been then less per railway mile by the sum of £lB Os. 5d., and per train mile by 24d., proving that the line was worked more economically in proportion to the work done. The maintenance charges were less in last half-year per mile maintained, having amounted to £37 4s. 4d. against £47 2s. 4d. in 1859. The Government of India has recently published a minute on the sub ject of Indian railways, containing remarks affect ing the company, which, if uncontradicted and unexplained, may lead to some misapprehension. In the minute in question it is assumed that the undertakings of this company already sanctioned will cost £13,938,250, and that the capital provided is £6,254,459 ; and it is therefore suggested that the company should proceed with such works only as, front their state of advancement or other circum stances, it may be inexpedient to suspend, except on the gravest emergency: From information in their possession, the directors estimate that the cost of the whole of the company's lines to Jubbulpore and Nagpore in the north-east, and to the junction at Moodgul with the Madras Railway in the south east, will not exceed £11,000,000. On this estimate the directors consider themselves justified in placing entire reliance, as it is based on the past experience of the works already completed, on their know ledge of the great caution exercised by their engineer in framing his estimates with reference to T all contingencies, and on the facts of the works To the meet Govern ment this being under h executionte company paidinto expenditure treasury £6,805,432, while it has unpaid calls on 141,527 shares to the amount of £l2 per share, well secured by shares on which £8 is paid up, or £1,698,324, making together £8,503,756. Indepen dent of the above, the borrowing powers of the company remain to be exercised to the extent of £2,162,910, and it may safely be assumed that this sum will be readily obtained on loan in an improved state of the money market before it can be required, making an available capital of £10,666,666. De ducting £868,000, the estimated cost of the line from Sholapore to Moodgul, which has not been contracted for or commenced, the estimate for the whole of the works undertaken is reduced to £10,132,000, leav- ing £534,666 of surplus capital, so that there can be no apprehension of any want of funds as required to carry the undertaking to a successful completion. The directors have represented to her Majesty's Secretary of State for India their views of the real state of the company's affairs, and they are happy to say they have received a satisfactory answer from Sir Charles Wcod, which leads to the expectation that all restrictions against carrying out the com pany's lines already sanctioned and contracted for in a substantial and effectual manner will be with drawn. The usual half-yearly statements of ac counts capital and revenue, which have been duly submitted to and examined by the auditors, are attached. The capital account shows a total receipt from the beginning of the operations to Dec. 31 last of £6,710,232, and a total expenditure of £6,019,711 10s. 11d., leaving an available balance at that date of £690,520 9s, ld. The results of the revenue account have been already stated. LAW IN7ELLIGENCE.-April 23. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. 'Sittings in Banco, before the Chief Baron, and Barons Martin, Bramwell, and Wilde.) EX PARTE FERNANDEZ. The Lord Chief Baron—l have to deliver the judgment of the Court in the case moved by Mr. Bovill on Friday last. The motion was for a writ of habeas corpus to bring up the body of the de fendant, in order to his being discharged, on the ground that the commitment was illegal. The argu ment occupied a considerable time, and was founded on cases not frequently cited, and some of ancient date. We had little doubt at the close that the writ ought not to issue, but we thought it desirable to take a short time to look into the state of the law upon the subject; and we are of opinion that no writ ought to be granted. We do not regret that Mr. Bovill brought under our notice the circumstances that took place at the trial, as it affords us an oppor tunity of saying that we entirely concur in the view taken by the learned judge (Mr. Justice Hill) who presided as to the whole proceedings.—Writ re fused.

The final sentence of the law was carried into effect in front of the county gaol at Brecon, at eight o'clock yesterday morning, upon William Williams, who was convicted at the Brecon Assizes, in March, for the wilful murder of his aunt on the 19th of October, 1860. The culprit had lived in the service of an uncle, on a farm about seven miles from the house where his aunt resided at. Fawydden, Talgnrth, about 20 miles from Hereford. Williams slept at her house on the night of the 18th October, and seemed on good terms with his relative. He brought with him a gun, which he Usually carried about his uncle's farm for bird-shooting. The next day, in the after noon, his sister went into an adjacent field for some hay, taking with her a little boy, an_ illegitimate son of the aunt ; Williams was at this time in the fold-yard, and his victim was in the house, sitting in a highbacked chair by the fire, picking wool. Just as the sister was returning, she heard thd report of firearms, and ranning forward met her brother aiming out of the house, who exclaimed, " That his aunt had shot herself." On entering the room the body of the murdered woman was found in the chair, in a sitting posture, and the muzzle of the gun had been placed so close to her that the flame from the powder had absolutely set her dress on fire. The Slugs, with which the gun had been loaded, passed completely through the-body of the unhappy woman, entering at her back, and passing through the heart out of the body. Whnn into custody, the, prisoner said, " The off by accident while hie was passing through the door,'' but he subsequently told the superintendent of police and his wife, and also the chief constable of the county, that he shot the poor. woman, his-+ words being," I did it ; I did it with all my heart to get possession of her property, for I had no home." It will be remembered that the testimony given by the sister, a young woman more than 20 years of age, exhibited a lamentable degree of ignorance. She was not aware of the nature of an oath, and her belief in a future state was merely to the extent that perhaps there was one. She did, however, believe in the existence of a God, and his power to punish her if she did wrong. The moral charac ter of the murdered woman was very much tainted. Since the culprit's sentence, which was accompanied by a recommendation to mercy, but - which Mr. Jus tice Ryles warned him could hardly be expected to avert his doom, the miserable youth (for he was only 19 years of age), for the first time subsequent to the crime, appeared to realise his awful situation. He has been attended with the most sedulous earnest ness by the Rev. David Price, B.D, chaplain to the county gaol, and his ministrations awakened the unhappy man to a sense of his atrocious crime. He has constantly prayed most fervently for pardon of hii sins, and was fully sensible that all hope for him in this world was gone. He has bee n v isi t e d by his relatives, the final parting with whom was one of the most agonising description. He attended. Divine service in the chapel on Sunday, and heartily joined in the responses.. He rose at an early hour this morning and requested to see the rev, chaplain, who at once attended him, and continued with him until the last. Upon the arrival of Mr. Maybury, the under-sheriff, shortly after half-past 7 o'clock, that gentleman, accompanied by Mr. Lazenby, the governor of the gaol; proceeded to the cell, and in formed the wretched man that the hour was come when he must meet his fate. His fortitude quite forsook him, and he burst into a bitter and pas sionate flood of tears, which the exhortations of the Rev. Mr. Price could not allay. The process of pinioning having been •gone through with much difficulty, the culprit rallied a little, and shook hands affectionately with the governor, thanking him for his great kindness, and also for that of the officers of the prison. He acknowledged the justice of his sentence, but expressed himself in penitence and hope of a belief that he would receive pardon for his crime. The procession having arrived at the drop, the fatal knot was quickly adjusted, and while most earnestly joining in the Burial Service, as read by the chaplain, the bolt was withdrawn, and after a momentary struggle the wretched youth ceased to exist. 2HE ITALIAN REVOLUIIOY. If it be true that " history is philosophy teaching by example," it may not be useless to compare the events now passing in Italy with the circumstances. of other great revolutions. Let us turn over the chronicles of the first French Revolution. Let us pause for a moment at the memorable time when. the destruction of the old Monarchy had been con summated in France. We may pass on a few more months, and we find that the King had been put to death and his office had been abolished, the nobility were in exile, and the Church had been swept away. The ground had been cleared, but nothing had been built up in the place of what had been destroyed. There was a weak Government and a distracted people. Many close observers have thought that if France could at this moment have called to her service a few courageous men and had met with some forbearance froth her neighbours she might h_a : o : leee.u-sp lim ar e ed to a c ll on th so a l t id s a h t e e a a n ft d er r w eb ads endured. u r ild,aud she was not allowed quiet for the task. W hahtaht followed a(lpasd was the fury of wrong long endured ;w Was the ferocity of fear. Even Robespierre con sented only through terror to the murder of Marie I Antoinette; even Barrere, the chief murderer, saw in "waves of blood" only the necessary means of his own safety. Even earlier still, Robespierre is said to have decided his hesitating companions, de liberating upon the fate of the King, by asking, "If the King is innocent, then what are you?" The Reign of Terror, with all its horrors, was a frenzy of cowardice, The priesthood would not wait and let the storm pass over, but would excite anti revolutionary action in every parish. The emigrant noblesse would not wait for the moment of return to calm sentiments. Europe would not wait, but poured her invading armies upon the frontiers. There was insurrection at Toulon and at Lyons, there were conspiracies in Paris, there was disaster on the frontiers, there was retribution imminent, and there was a weak and a poor Government. Then it was that the French Revolution became horribly formidable in its desperation. It made itself temporarily safe by the wholesale massacre of every one it feared, temporarily rich by the whole sale confiscation of the property of its enemies, and triumphant in war by creating armies even out of the miseries itself had created. This fact, that it was terror which created terror, has not, we think, been sufficiently dwelt upon by the historians of those times ; but it should not be lost sight of now, when we have again to deal with successful revolu tion, and when it becomes again the interest of the world so to fashion its policy as to prevent the reiteration of such deeds of bloodshed and of horror. Southern Italy is at this moment very much in the condition in which France was in those earlier and happier stages of her revolution, when, previous to the erection of the guillotine, liberty was no stained with blood ; when despotism was dethroned, but religion had not been altogether proscribed ; and when, although resistance had been successful, Robespierre could obtain sympathy by denonne. iag " the law which commanded judicial mur ders." There are, however, some other points of resemblance which are more disquieting. Like France in the early days of 1792 Southern Italy has become the very focus of ecclesiastical intrigue. Emissaries from Rome are exciting unavailing but irritating insurrections in every town and every village. Money is squandered to get up reactionary demonstrations at every fete to which the populace resort. The telegraph is used to enable a small number of conspirators, spread over a large space, the opportunity of making an appear ance of strength by simultaneous action. The clergy are always found working the details of these move ments, and are always able to foretell them. At Naples, during the Easter week, all the prisons were to have been opened, and religion and order were to be restored by the aid of the bandits and assassins who were then to be let hose. The gaolers had been gained over to the good cause, and the city owes its preservation from pillage to the vigilance of the National Guard, aided by a happy accident. When the discovery had grace, when the prisons had been surrounded and the threatened THE SUSPECTED MURDER AND SUICIDE AT CARLISLE. CARLISLE, A= 22. The inquest on the bodies of William Horsley, aged 23, and his mother-in-law, Jane Davidson, aged 49, who died at Carlisle on Friday, the 12th inst., under the extraordinary circumstances already reported, was resumed to-day before Mr. Carrick, the county coroner, and a respectable jury. The first witness examined was Margaret Robin son, a married daughter of the deceased woman, who had been an inmate of the house on the night of the suspected murder. Mrs. Davidson, she said, had kept the King of Prussia Inn at Penrith before she came to Carlisle at Candlemas last, and William Horsley boarded there with his wife, till she died, as was said, of bronchitis. Horsley subsequently came to a draper's shop in Carlisle, and went over to Penrith occasionally to visit his mother-in-law, who came to Carlisle to the Pack-horse Inn at Candlemas. After that Horsley visited the house almost nightly. Witness denied that she knew of any improper intimacy existing between Horsley and his mother-in-law, but said that she thought a great deal more of him than of any of her own children. Horsley went to the Pack-horse on Thursday night, the 11th inst. He was quite sober, and Mrs. Davidson was quite sober when the other inmates retired to rest, leaving them together in the kitchen. Next morning Horsley was found dead in the kitchen; her mother, Mrs. Davidson, Horsley's, mother-in-law, was seized with great sickness, and did not express any surprise at being so ill. There was no cup or drinking ves sel in her bedroom or in the bar which could have contained poison. During the night witness I had heard her mother come upstairs into the room in which she (witness) slept with her husband and rummage in the drawers. She asked her what she wanted, and her mother replied, that she was look ing for a paper. Whether she returned downstairs or went to her room after she had searched the drawers, one of which she unlocked, witness could not say. On Friday afternoon while the jury were viewing the body of Horsley his mother-in-law died. Wm. Whitehead, an upholsterer, who had at one time lodged at the house of Mrs. Davidson, when she kept the King of Prussia Inn, but who after wards left, gave the following extraordinary evi dence:—l never went near Mrs. Davidson after that till she was going to leave. She sent for me, and when I went she said unto me, "Whitehead, we have got a great deal of rats here." I said, " Have you?" She said, " Yes ; we are nearly wor ried with rats," and she said she would give any thing to " cure" them. She said, " Can you tell me what colour strychnine is ?" I said, " No." ' She said, " Do you think I could easily get to know ?" 1 said,'," Yes ; that will easily be done." I asked a young man if he knew what colour it was. He said, " Yes, it is white; it is just like flour." Next day I went for some tobacco and told her. When I had, told her some one came into the shop and I went to my work. She sent for me next day, and when I went she started talking about strychnine. She gave me is. I had been off work for some time, and she thought I could not have much. She talked on a little bit, and said, "Do you think you could get me ls. worth of strychnine ?" I said, " What for ?" She said, " I want these rats cured." I said, "You can cure them without strychnine." She said, " Well, you like revenge yourself, don't you ?" " Yes," I said, " but there are many ways of having revenge." She said, " That is mine." I said, " What is it ?" She did not exactly say at first, and I said, " If you want revenge you should get it as I get it ; you should lay wait till you get it without anything of that kind." She said, " Will you swear you will not mention it to any one ?" I s aid I would not repeat it. She said, " Well, I must tell you the truth ; it is for Horsley." That was before he came to Carlisle. I said to her, " Why do you want it for him ?" She said he had behaved very badly to her. I said, " In what way r She v e ry she had bought him all his furniture that ever he had when he,went to housekeeping, and she could get nothing back. He had taken it home; and she said she had done many things for him besides which she did not wish to mention at that time, but she would tell me some time. I asked her, and said she might as well tell me then. I said, " If it is for him, Mrs. Davidson, I would advise you to have nothing to do with it. You will get yourself into a hobble' over it." And then she said, "Never mind ; if you will only get it for me you need never mind." She said she would do as much for me some time when she had the power. (Much laughter.) She did not mean anything of that kind ; she meant she would give me some money. A Juror—Perhaps she would do it to keep you from telling it again. Witness continued—l said, " Well, I will see." My blood. ran cold, and I did not know what to say to her. I shut the door and went across home. There was a 3 oung man who lodged at the same place, and I told him. I said she had given me (4 §billing. said, 11 Come : Ist us spud tho localities occupied in force, when the peril was past and there was leisure to investigate the circum stances of the conspiracy, it became plain that the plotters were amongst the highest in rank of the nobility and the clergy. Thousands of stands of arms, magazines of ammunition, had been bought and laid up by these noble and reverend conspira tors, as the instruments in the bloody struggle they were about to evoke. These were to furnish forth that army of the faith which was to be recruited among the thieves and murderers of the Neapolitan prisons. A parish priest was ringing the alarm bell when the National Guard surrounded him. Three bishops of the Church are compromised by written proofs of their part in this nefarious attempt, and many nobles of the Court of Francis 11. are dis tinctly shown to have been parties to the projected alliance between counter-revolution and crime. This frustrated conspiracy does not appear to have been an isolated case. It is but part of a system. The same party are accused of instigating assassinations in the streets and of omitting no means to create confusion and destroy society. The lower classes, who in Naples are always hungry and who desire ever to be idle, are tempted to rise and plunder in the name of the King •, acts of violence are con stantly being committed against the officials of the present Government by those who avow themselves partisans of Francis II.; and all these people are acting, combining, and conspiring under the eye of the Revolutionary Government by which they are protected. Nothing is wanted but that Austria should issue from her fortresses, and the parallel between France just before the Reign of Terror and Naples at the present moment would be almost complete. For the sake of all classes and all parties in that beautiful land we would ask a hearing for a word of warning. This state of things cannot endure. Society cannot exist under it. If the reactionist nobility and clergy elect to reside in Naples under the pre sent Government they do SD under the tacit condi tion of engaging in no act of hostility to that Go vernment. If they make themselves the accomplices of the criminal population of the city they will terrify the inhabitants for their safety and their pro perty. Irritation and fear will work out their com mon results. The weak Government of Victor Em manuel—for hitherto the Government of Victor Emmanuel is weak in the southern extremities of his new kingdom—will not be able to restrain the frenzy of a population trembling for its own safety and having in its power the enemies of whose in cessant machinations it is the victim. It there is anything to be learnt from history there is danger lest the Italian Revolution pass into a bloody phase. Is this the desire of Francis 11. ? Perhaps it may b p e iu ; ki f u o g r t u h p er h e is might t n th e confusion. But that it the desire of Napoleon 111., who protectsall these evils be some small . chance B of ut hi i s s workshop of conspiracies whence Christendom," who at least is t. responsibility of these tenta Ives to massacre the emanate ?

We ho p e he l o ngsuffering—not weak against these evil-doers, , but still steadfast against panic impulses to shed blood in terror. But surely the friends of order have some duty in this crisis ? Surely it is not to be allowed to them to aid in tempting a people be fond the power of endurance, and then to exclaim in indignation if violence should follow P—Tinies. Copious showers of rain fell yesterday at South ampton, *and hopes were entertained that the long drought and easterly winds were over. Towards the latter part of the day, however, the wind shifted round to its old quarter.
