Theessential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man , h ° 0(1 , and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is ' Particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without 11 1 1 9r/ 11 1g grievous penalties, and wh en w i s d om an d regret succeed e heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness' may be removed, and how the evil and its c ons e quences may b e avoided, and a b ove a ll, that there is scarcely any degree of pirysica' infirmity or functional derangement to which *he timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

" Gentlemen, I have great pleasure in adding my testimony to the valae of 3 our Fireproof Sa'es. " Last Monday night my house, warehouse, and premises were unfortunately burned down; the tire raged very fearfitliv for about two hours, and, owfng to the great scarcity of water, the whole of my Premises and stock were consumed. "The safe I purchased of you had a most severe test, in conse quence of a barrel or brimstone standing close to it and melting with the heat of the fire, the burning lava running all over and under the safe, which great'' , added to the intensity of the heat; it remained in that position about four hours, and when with great difficulty it was trot out of the fire and opened, I found my books and papers all uninjured. " You are at liberty to make what use you please of this informa tion. _ "I am, gentlemen, yours respectfully " WM. WALKER. "Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son, 17s, Moorgate-street, London." "Agricultural Laboratory, Harpenden, July 6, 1854 " Gentlemen,—l was present at the late fire which destroyed the premises of !Ur. balker. Harpenden, and was much surprised at the great amount of heat your safe resisted, and Will more surprised (when it was made known to me that a barrel of sulphur stood near it) that it was not end ely destroyed. .' Being anxious to see if it had been attracted by the sulphur, I scraped some of the blistered iron from the inside and outside of the safe, and, from analysis, find much sulphuret, so that it must have been greatly acted upon by the sulphur, yet the books and papers were perfectly unin.iiired. " I must in justice say that your safes are invaluable, and vary necessary for every one who has books arid accounts of any value. I am, Gentlemen, yours very faithfully, "F. W. SIMCOE. "Messrs.

R. Bentley, Chapman and Hall, John Churchill, Hurst and Blackett, Edward Moxon, John Murray.—July 28, 1854." Some of the houses in the "Row," amongst which is the Religious Tract Society (wholesale department), itself employing upwards of 40 assistants, have also announced their intention to close throughout the year, on Saturdays, at two o'clock— magazine time only excepted. CORKS AND BUNGS.—We recently visited the factory of the London Cork Cutting Company, and proceeded through a warehouse stacked with huge piles of Fork, tied up in bales as imported into this country, to a little yard in the rear of the building. Here we found one of the workmen busily engaged over a blazing fire of cork shavings, on which was placed a huge gridiron. He was "charring" the cork, as the operation is called—that is to say, he was literally broiling and blackening it on this gridiron. It is this pro cess that gives the bungs that dark exterior which they always posses ; it also closes the pores, without at all diminishing the size or lessening the weight of the cork. Returning to the warehouse, we were enabled to inspect the curious and interesting machinery by which the manu facture is accomplished. To those of our readers who may be engaged in manufactures of various kinds, which call in the aid of steam machinery, it may not be uninteresting to present a brief descriptive sketch of the mode in which these slices or sheets of the cork-bark were turned into bottle-corks and bungs. A sheet of cork is placed on an iron table, in which revolves a circular knife, by which all " knobs and excrescence" are pared off. Parallel with the knife, and at a distance from it, regulated by the size of the cork required, is a little guage, or edge. Pushing the cork against the, edge of the knife, and passini , ...it between the knife and theguage, the sheet is speedily cut into long strips. One boy can cut in this way half a ton of cork in a day. By a similar process these slips are cut into little parallelo grams, the length of the cork requ i re d. A lad, at ls. per day, turns out 80 gross, or 11,500 per diem, while the most experienced workman, by h an d-l a b our' could hardly do half as much within the same pe r i o d, although he would charge 5 or 6 times the money for his labour. These paral lelograms are then taken to another machine. The boy places one on a lever, holds it there with his hand; the lever, hand, and cork are carried up to an iron table ; two " holders" now seize the square piece of cork exactly in its centre, and it begins to revolve ; the hand and lever return. Now there come , along, horizontally, a fearfully large knife a yard in length—which catches.the parallelo gram of cork on the side as it is turning round to its edge. It will easily be seen that the square is thus cut into an, ordinary bottle-cork; and we may remark also, as a curi ous fact, that out of 10,000 of these parallelograms, a round cork would, in every individual case, be cut of the very largest dimensions mathematically possible; and not only , so, but the entire 10,000 would be, in the strictest mathe matical sense of the word, of precisely the same size and circumference. As the knife recedes, the holders drop the perfect cork into one basket, and the shavings into another, and the knife, by an ingenious process, is made to sharpen itself. From 16 to 25 corks can be, and are, cut in a minute ; and there are children of from 12 to 14 years of age who melee at the rate of 70 gross a day. By a similar machine, though somewhat more complicated, bungs are cut, both round and tapering, at one operation. There appeared considerable beauty in the perfect accuracy and precision with which these corks were turned out by the machines; but this satisfactory result has only been at tained after the purchase, trial, and rejection of several patents—after extensive experimentation, and the sacrifice of a large quantity of machinery. The store-room was suggestive of some interesting reflections. There were packages of fifty or one hundred gross, or more, labelled and ready to depart, some to various quart ers of the United . d Kingdom, paid others for di ff erent parts of the world. r' • Atholl, 4, store-ship, Lieut. Commander Peirse, will Pay off, at Portsmouth, on Friday ; and her crew will have granted a ten days' run, after which they return to the flag-ship Victory, and may volunteer into any other ship fitting out. Dasher, 4, paddle, Captain Lefebre, returned into Portsmouth harbour yesterday morning, to make good some trifling defects, and on Monday next will accom pany the. Royal yacht, and be in attendance on the Queen. The Dauntless, Capt. Ryder, has sent all her invalids on board the Waterloo, and is ordered to get ready for. sea again with all possible despatch. She coaled yester day. Destination not known. Her mails were sent on shore on arrival here, and proceeded to London the same evening. Rhadams.;thus and Melempus will not leave for Pem broke until Friday. Assistant Master Attendant Tonkin, with a party of seamen riggers and pensioners, will take passage in her, helping to navigate her down, and then jury-lig the screw-corvette Falcon, and bring her round to Portsmouth, to receive her boilers and machinery. PembrOke yard has turned out the most beautiful corvettes that any country possesses with re markable rapidity. 'The Janus, Lieutenant-Commander C. C. Kane, arrived at Sheerness yesterday from the Baltic fleet. She has brought'home as passengers Mr. E. K. Calver, R.N., the Admiralty surveyor for the eastern coast of England, who proceeded out in the Hannibal in pilot charge of the squadron under charge of Com modore Grey. The following invalids are also on board the Janus :—Sergeant Pontin, of the French troops, from the Hannibal, invalided for dropsy ; John M'Clay, A. 8., Royal William ; Thomas Gregory, royal marine, St. Vincent ; Thomas Skegs, ditto ditto ; and Peter Callagan, stoker, from Algiers. Further particu larsto-morrow. Close for post. The Devonshire.-The whole of the masters, mates, and crews of the ships taken for attempting to break the blockade in the Baltic were liberated yesterday. On leaving the' ship for London, the masters, mates, and seamen came aft, and expressed their grateful thanks to Lieut.-Commander J. )1.. Lloyd, of the Devonshire, for the particular kindness shown them during their de tention_ under his charge ; and on• leaving in the Sea Swallow steam-vessel for London, they, 29 in number, gave three hearty and sincere cheers, wishing them a long farewell. The names will be given fully to-morrow, as requested by them. Fire Queen and Sprightly, steam-tenders, have re turned to Portsmouth, from their Channel cruise, with out falling in with the ship they were sent in search of. Industry, screw store-ship, Master Commander Brad ley, bas completed her loading, and is off by this time to the Black Sea. We trust that now she is fairly out of an English port we shall have no more growling. It is absurd to affect to make a man-of-war out of a store ship, and officers should do well to remember the,special service for which they are selected. The simplest way to remedy habitual growling and fault-finding is to make a change. Sea Nymph, transport, received her mail on Thesday, and sailed from Devonport in the afternoon. Stores of every kind are still being got ready for the Baltic and Black Sea fleets and armies, and the task of providing them at home and arranging the means of transport is continuously onerous. The large weekly additions to the forces, north and east, impose increased duties on the transport, victualling, and store depart ments. It is not only the first fitting out, but the permanent maintenance also, that has to be looked to. Everything must be arranged at home for the supply of clothes, Trovisions, and stores for some 120,600 men, French and English. APPOINTMENT. Assistant-Surgeon—Wm. F. 0. Kay, M.D., to be assistant-sUrgeon to the Impregnable flag-ship, at Devon port. PROMOTION. Commander—Charles W.

The Turkish steam-frigate Faid Gehaid left Ports mouth Harbour at four p.m. yesterday, for Southampton, to be docked. A correspondent says—" It is much to be regretted she was not docked in the yard. There would have .been no difficulty in accomplishing this by making the fitting basin a dock fer the time being, and leaving the - gates of the angle dock open. We regret to see old-womanlike' difficulties thrown in the way ; nor is it calculated to make the best im pression on our gallant friends the Turks, to be handed about from South am pt on to Portsmouth and back again. MILITARY. The head-quarters and four companies of the 35th Regiment of FOot paraded at half-past eight o'clock on Monday morning at Brompton-barracks in heavy marching order, and marched from Brompton to Chatham-barracks, where they were inspected on the guard-mounting parade by Major-General '; Marcus Hill, commandant of the garrison.

They were4net at the railway station by the band of•the regiment, and marched into the Sheet street barracks about five o'clock in the afternoon. GALLANT CONDUCT OF A BRITISH:OFFICER ON BOARD THE FLAG-SHIP VICTORY.-Agai n within a week we have to record a gallant act. One of the Victory's boys was coming down over the main futtock rigging, when the top rim, which he had hold of; gave way, and the lad .fell into the sea, having struck something in his descent which broke his arm and stunned him. The poor boy must have One to the bottom, but that 'a gallant officer, Lieutenant Webb, without a moment's hesitatiOn, jumped overboard all standing, and making a little dive brought the boy to the surface and saved him. The poor lad has been sent to Hamlar Hogpitil much injured.- The Lords of the Admiralty have given directions that, in consequence of the pressure of work existing in the various dockyards, the drills of the brigades of - those establishments will not take place as usual this season, but that an increased number will be gone through next year; and that it is their Lordships' intention to take an opportunity of seeing the men under arms before the summer is over. Another Russian ship, called the Ida, Geesen late master, bound from Rio Janeiro, taken prize by her Majesty's steamer Gorgon, has been condemned by the Court of Admiralty, and she, with her cargo, consisting of 2,160 bags of coffee, is ordered to be sold for the benefit of her captors. SECOND COURT-MARTIAL ON LIEUT. PERRY. FIFTH DAY-WEDNESDAY. The Court re-assembled at eleven o'clock, in the officers' mess-room, at the Infantry Barracks, Windsor, Colonel Kelly presiding. Mijor-General Wetherall was in his place as prosecutor : Major Dalgetty officiated as deputy-judge advocate. Lieutenant Perry, the prisoner, was attended by Mr. Darvill, of Windsor, as his legal adviser. The Court having been formally opened, the prisoner respectfully asked whether he might be permitted to call witnesses other than those on the list he had handed in. The President said that no limitation of witnesses would be made. The prisoner might call any _witness for his defence. - The cross-examination of Major Maxwell was resumed. Prisoner—Were there no, instances of officers being pulled out of bed, after Dunscomba's, at Weedon Bar racks ? Witness—Shortly after that case, several companies of the regiment went on detachment. I have been present with head-quitrters up to this date, and I know of no case at Weedon Barracks of any officer being pulled out of his bed. Prisoner—Do you not know of one particular case at Weedon, in which an officer (Hammond) was brought into the mess-room, placed upon the table, and asked to sing a song . Witness—l have a slight recollection, now it is brought to - my memory, of something of the kind happening, and no - more, at Weedon. I think it WAR at Weedon, but it made no impression on my mind at•the time., Prisoner—You admit that you are the person whom the colonel deputes to look after such matters? How is it that you did not in this case give a severe reprimand? Witness—Because the reprimands are only given when necessary, and I, in this case, cer , ainly never saw any ne cessity for a reprimand. If it had been necessary, I should have given Prisoner---Did you never receive a private letter from me, through my servant, when at th e Li nen -h a ll B arrac ks, Dublin ? *lf so, can you produce it ? Witness—l have received privata letter's from Lieute nant Perry; in the Linen-hall Barracks, asking leave from parades and drills, but on no other subject that I am aware of ; and I.never keep such notes. 'Prisoner—l have no further questions to ask Major Max well. By the Court—Was the officer in question brought from his room at Weedon, and placed on the table, to sing a song, or was he pulled out of bed, and brought by force ? itness—l do not know how he was brought down, where he was brought from, or whether force was used. But this I know, that the officer in question, during the time he has been in the regiment, has never made a com plaint to me, or to any one else, that I ever beard of, of ill-us'age or ill-treatment from any person in the regiment. By the Court— How soon after the settlement of the third complaint did Lieutenant Perry go from head-quarters on detachment; and did he make any complaint of ill-treat- ' went after his third complaint ? Witness—He went on dectachment about five months after the third complaint, and I never heard of another complaint from Lieutenant Perry. By the Court—Was the officer in question (Ensign Ham mond). placed on the table, and how was he dressed ? Witness—l have not the. slightest. recollection or faintest idea of the circunistanees.of the case, and should have for gotten it, had it not been called to my memory. It made .. no impression on my mina. _ the e G C ar o l u e r t t t Witness—l have reason. Colon e l Garrett never speaks never NC- ha e t a r l e le ar t n he h p a r v i e sen y e o r n a t tb o e b i fieve that Colonel B y presence of one of the majors or senior officers, and the adjutant. A n d I think I was t e o th a e n r y wi se,officer excepton aniyn the e int of duty, .such as reprimand or pre sent at the only time, to the best of my knowledge, that Colonel Garrett spoke to Lieutenant Perry, concerning a reprimand, in the Linen-hall Barracks. On that occasion Colonel Garrett never used that expression nor any term of reproachtowards Lieutenant Perry. Prisoner (through the Court)—Will you say that Colonel Garrett never used unmeasured language to another officer (Lieutenant Dunscombe) when he reported? Witness— I will. Prisoner (through the Court.)—How long is it since 11am mond's case occurred, and how long since my last com plaint, in which I have stated. that Colonel Garrett called me a fool ? Witness—llanimond's case must have occurred during the time the regiment was at. Weedon—during April or May last. Lieutenant Perry's third and last complaint was made either in June or July, 1853. By the Court—LWas• • Lieutenant Perry on detachment whilst the regiment was at Vireedon, or was he at head quarters ? • Windsor D ecemb'e . r, 1853, and did not rejoin Witness—On detachm en t. He went on detachment in Major David Fyffe, of th e 46 th Regiment, was then called and sworn, the prosecut or stating that, to save time, the w itness would be exa m i ne d on the first and second charges: The charges were then read. until June, 1854, at. Prosecutor—Were you present with the 46th Regiment at the Linen-hall Barracks, Dublin ? Witness—l was. • • Garrett a r d reproached any other oc, call of err a ya foolforhi r s Prosecutor—ls it within within m comeaints your knowledge that Colonel Garrett did, on anionn of his making complaint,o on pains, or repr ach him for makingnot,Cthearttacinsliyonel g , nor did nant Perry for making complaints, or made use of such wroledheed an expression. Prosecutor —Do you know that Lieutenant Perry, of the 46th Regiment, ever sent a letter to Colonel Garrett, threatening that he would app ea l to the general of the Lieute nant eWveirtnleessa; district, or that he ever threaten e d,. Lo do so ? Witness—l never heard of such a threat, either by letter or word. Prisoner —Were you present when Colonel Garrett adjudicated on my report, andthe . 9m _, "48 were said to have been used by Colonel Garrett to m e ? Witness—l was not. Prisoner —Might not Colonel Garrett receive my letter, threatening to appeal to the General of the district without your knowledge ? • , Witness—He might. , Prisoner—Do you not recollect another officer who actually sent an official letter to Colonel Garrett, threaten ing to appeal to the Ge neral of the distr ict, and that Cal. Garrett, the next morning, used unmeasured language towards him, before all the officers, captains, and sub alterns of the regiment ? The court was here cleared. On the r e - admission of the public, the President announced that the question might be put. Witness—l cannot answer that question on my own knowledge. Prisoner—Did any one detail to you anything to that effect having taken place? And were you.not one of the officers present when Colonel Garrett read Dunscombe's letter? I . Witness—l have no recollection of any person detailing to me that anything of the Kort had taken place ; nor do I recollect that I was present when Colonel Garrett read Dunscombe's letter. Prisoner—The first 'question on the re - assembling of the Court was read to you before you left the court. Did you communicate with any one respecting that quristion when out of court? Witness—l mentioned that the question had been put, certainly. Prisoner—To whom? And what reply did you receive? Witness—l rnentionel it to two or 'three officers, but I received no reply. Prisoner —State who it was to whom you mentioned the question. Witness—Mr. Curtis and Captain Campbell were the only two officers to whom I mentioned it; others might• have heard. I merely said the question was about Duns combe's business. Prisoner—Will you say distinctly, one way or the other, whether you were or were not present when Dunscorribe's letter was read by Colonel Garret t? Witness—l cannot amend my former answer. I have no recollection of being present when the letter was read. Prisoner—What (lid you mean by Dunscombe's busi ness ? Was that a phrase u nderstood by those officers ? Witness—l alluded to the answer of Colonel Garrett yesterday, reported in the newspaper?, which has been tho subject of conversation amongst the officers this morning. [After a pausel—lt is not to that answer I alluded. intended to refer to another. I was under a wrong im pression as to ,Colonel Garrett's answer. I alluded to an ' other occurrence, in which I had previously heard of such a letter having been written by Mr. Drinscombe. The prisoner drew the attention of the court to the fact that witness had changed the answer three times ; and he then put the following question :—To what occurrence do you refer specifically ? Witness—l referred to the fact of my having heard, in the course of casual conversation, that Lieutenant Duns combe bad written a letter to Col. Garrett. Prisoner—Threatening to appeal to the general of the district ? 'Witness—l mean the letter 'alluded to in the former question ? Prisoner—And was not that letter, through Col. Gar rett, sent to the general of the district, and was it riot known, and the subject of conversation' amongst the officers ? Witness—l have no recollection of having heard, other wise than iu casual conversation, that Lieutenant Duns combo had complained to the general of the district by letter. Prisoner—Was this complaint made by Dunscombe in ' consequence of having . been brought from his bed in his shirt into the ante-room? How long ago was that? Witness—l believe it was made in consequence of his being brought from his, bed, but whether he was brought to the ante-room.l do not know. I cannot recollect the time, nor where it took place. By the Court—Are you aware of Lieutenant Perry being persecuted in any way, after the reprimand had been given by Colonel Garrett to the subaltern officers ? Witness—Most decidedly not. Prisoner--Are you aware that I was often called names, and my company studiously avoided by nearly all the other officers because I complained to the commanding officer ? • Witness—l am not aware that Lieut. Perry was ever called names. And if his company was studiously avoided, it was 'not because he had complained. Nor am I aware that his company was ever studiously avoided. Prisoner—l must now trouble the Court with another question. The last answer contains an innuendo, and lam anxious that everything concerning me should be known, ever since I joined the regiment.- I wish nothing to be dis guised or withheld. Question from prisoner —If avoided, for what cause ? Witness—l should say from his general temper. He ap peared to me (hesitation)—lt is a difficult question to answer. (After another pause.) I should cay that I did not associate with Lieut. Perry much in consequence of his general temper. I did not know why the others avoided him. It did not appear to me (hositation)-- The President—What ? Witness—That his general disposition and temper—they were such as I did not admire. The Court here adjourned for ten minutes. On re assembling, Captain Sandwith, of the 46th, was called and sworn. The first and second charges were read by the President. Prosecutor—Were you adjutant of the 46th Regiment when quartered in Dublin, and were you present with it? Witness—l was adjutant of the 46th Regiment when quartered in Dublin, but was absent from it some short time; I think about ten or twelve days. Prosecutor.—Did you ever hear Colonel Garrett call Lieutenant Perry a fool for his pains, and reproach him for making complaints ? Witness—l never heard Colonel Garrett call Lieutenant Perry a fool for his pains, nor did I ever hear him reproach Lieutenant Perry for making complaints. Prosecutor—Do you know whether Lieutenant Perry ever sent a letter to Colonel Garrett threaterting to com plain to the general of the district ' • or that h e ever , b y writing or word of mouth, threaten e d to do so ? Witness—l do not. Prosecutor —Have you any reason to believe that the persecution, alleged to have taken place towards Lieute nant Perry, ceased when that officer threatened to report Colonel Garrett to the general of the district ? Witness—l am not aware that such a threat was at any time made, or that Lieutenant Perry was ever persecuted. The prosecutor announced that ho had no further ques tions to ask. Prisoner (in cross-examination)—Could not all that you have negatived take place, you being psat of the time on leave, and always living out of barracks because a married officer ? Witness—A system of persecution towards any officer could not have existed without my knowledge. It is not likely that Coloncd Garrett would use such expressions ; and I am quite sure that such a letter does not exist in the orderly-room, and never did. I slept out of barracks, as a married man, but the whole of my day, except going to meals, was spent at the barracks. Prisoner—May I suggest to the Court that my qUestions are argued, not answered. The President—The answer, be it good or bad, must be taken. You can contradict it when on your defence. Prisoner (to witness)—Then do I understand that all you can Speak to is that I was not systematically persecuted, the rest of the reply being argumentative ? At the suggestion of the President, and with the consent of the prisoner, the question was withdrawn. Prisoner—Are you not aware that I was pulled out of bed several times ; Waldey and Knapp's rooms turned up side down ; Dunscombe ill-treated more than once ; Ham mond placed on the mess-table, whilst at Weedon ? Witness—l am not aware that Lieutenant Perry was pulled out of bed several times. I never heard of Waldey and Knapp's rooms being turned upside down. I know that Mr. Dunscombe was once pulled out of his bed; and that ho complained to the commanding officer, who severely reprimanded the officers of whom ho had complained. That reprimand was given in the presence of the whole of the officers. With respect to Mr. Hammond, I have reason to believe that he never was ill-treated since he joined the regiment. Prisoner— What were the words the colonel employed to Dunscombe the morning after be was pulled out of bed, when the officers were assembled ? Witness—When the officers were assembled, which, I think, w_ts two or three days after the occurrence, the colonel addressed himself at very considerable length to the whole of them, but more particularly to those against I whom the complaint had been made. do not recollect him addressing himself particularly to Mr. Dunscombe. Such a time has elapsed that it is impossible for me to re collect what the colonel did say. The President—Does that answer the whole of the ques tion ? The Deputy-Judge-Advocate—l . think it does. Prisoner (Co witness)—You seem to know something about Dunscombe's case. Was that letter addressed by him to the colonel merely, or through the colonel to the general of the district ? Witness—To the colonel only. Prisoner—ls that letter still in the orderly-room, filed ? Witness—l should think not. The regiment has been moved three times since that letter was written. On those occasions all useless letters are destroyed, and I should think that was destroyed with them. By the Court—What expression did Colonel Garrett use In your presence to Lieutenant Perry, when Lieutenant Perry complained of ill-treatment from other officers of the regiment ? Witness -I do not recollect Colonel Garrett ever speak ing to Lientent Perry in my presence on such a subject. By the Court—Was Lieutenant Perry's society shunned; and if so, why ? Witness—l can say that Mr. Perry's society was not sought for, in consequence of his disagaeeable manner—of his swaggering manner—leading any one to suppose that he was a man of enormous (witness did not finish the sen tence)—his apparent contempt for everything military or regimental—his supposed debauched habits—and latterly, from ill-conduct in a money transaction. The prisoner here intimated a desire to put another question to the witness, who had attacked his character -without the slightest chance of proving the truth of his assertions. The President—The better way will be to call witnesses to disprove the testimony of Captain Sandwith. Question from the Court —Were you not present when Colonel Garrett assembled the officers and reproved them, in consequence of a complaint from Lieut. Perry ? Witness—l should think not, as I have no recollection of the circumstance. I have already stated as much. The prisoner here handed in another question, and the Court decided that it might be put, but The President (addressing the prisoner) said—Lieut. Perry, I think you had much better meet the matter in another way. The Prisoner—l think so, sir. I must take other steps. I have very fortunately kept the whole of the letters con nected with the money transaction, and I should be sorry that so •personal a matter - should be brought before the Court, more especially as it relates to purchasing steps in the regiment. I shall take other means of publicly refuting the aspersions cast upon my character by the witness. The question was then torn up by the President, and the witness was ordered to withdraw. Captain Nicholas, of the 46th Regiment, was then called, and sworn to give evidence on the first and second charge, which were read over to him. Prosecutor—Did you act as adjutant of the 46th Regi ment during any part of the time that regiment was quar tered in Dublin? Witness—l did ; when they were stationed at the Linen Hall barracks, and a'so at the Royal barracks. Prosecutor—Did you ever hear Colonel Garrett call Lieu tenant Perry a fool for his pains, or reproach him for making complaints ? Witness—l never heard Colonel Garrett call Lieutenant Perry a fool for his pains • nor did I ever hear him re proach Lieutenant Perry ?or making complaints. Prosecutor—Do you know whether Lieutenant Perry ever sent a letter to Colonel Garrett, threatening to appeal to the general of the district, or that he ever did, by word of month or writing, de so ? Witness—l never heard of such a thing being done by Lieutenant Perry. Prosecutor—Do you believe that the alleged persecution of Lieutenant Perry ceased in consequence of any su c h threat ? Witness—The alleged persecution of Lieutenant Perry ceased on Colonel Garret reprimanding an officer of the 46th, who had persecuted Lieutenant Perry. I heard of any letter or threat by Lieutenant Perrytore port Colonel Garrett to the general of the district, in con sequence of such treatment. It being now past four o'clock, the Court adjourned until to-morrow (this day). RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. LIVERPOOL, AUG. 2.

KARS, July I.—On Wednesday morning, at an early hour, General Guyon started with several of his staff to reconnoitre the strength and whereabouts of the Rus sians, and I very gladly availed myself of permission to accompany them. After gaining the summit of the first Yong slope from Kais the ride lies over one of the finest expanses of plainland which I have yet seen in Asia Minor. Luxuriant grass rising to the horses' knees attests the fertility of the soil, and suggests what this magnificent country might be under a better rule, its productiveness for nearly every kind of crop being, in fact, all but unlimited. For miles and miles we rode on over this splendid waste of meadow land, struck more and more as we advanced with the multiplying I signs of its natural richness, and meeting only—at long intervals—an odd herd of bullocks, tame buffaloes, or the small broad-tailed sheep of the country ; of crops or human habitations we saw none. Five hours and a half brought us to Subitan, a miserable village of two or three hundred inhabitants, as perfect in its filth and apparent wretchedness as any other Turkish collection of holes in the earth, which goes by the same cumulative name. An advanced camp of some four thousand men, however, gives it a little present importance, and deprives it at the same time of all means of supplying the simplest want of the passing traveller. Here we rested for au hour or two, during which I endea voured to procure some sort of refreshment ; but " for love or money" I could get nothing better than a morsel of hard black bread, against which bad. teeth and (as yet) a slender_ appetite equally rebelled. This unin viting morsel, however, became less despisable when I learned from Ismail Pacha (General Binetty), who came in while we were there from the outposts, that he had not tasted food of any kind, except some wild cock sorrel, for three _days. From. Sabitan. General Guyon took a strong escort of lancers, to be prepared against, contingencies, and with this we pursued our journey to the north-east. Before as, at a short distance, lay the hills of Georgia ; whilst, away some. 30 miles on our right, uprose the broad and anow-crowned summit of the lonely Mount Ararat, overtopping in its solemn majesty, and eclipsing in interest, every other mountain height in view. Between Subitan and the frontier we passed several deserted villages, whose inhabitants have been driven to seek protection and sustenance near Erze roum ; two or three dogs—mere peripatetic anatomies, which contrive to exist on I know not what—were the only signs of life which lingered about the desolate and crumbling huts. As we had ridden slowly, it was late in the afternoon when we approached the Bashi Bazouk outposts, and came in sight of the Karstchai, which at this point divides Asiatic Turkey from the ter ritories of the Czar. I then learned from the general, for the first time, that we were to spend the night al fresco, and take the advantage of sunrise to make the intended reconnaissance—a piece of .intelligence, by the way, which was far from agreeable, as I was without cloak or extra covering of any kind. However, it was too late to draw back, and grumbling at what cannot be mended is, at the best, but a poor philosophy. Accord ingly, after a short halt and a subsequent ride along the banks of the river, during which nothing was to be seen more formidable than some distant Cossack piquets who were not thought worthy of a shot, we returned and bivouacked for the night on an open spot which had the very uncomfortable characteristics of little grass and a soft surface. I must be effeminate enough to confess, that dinnerless and supperless as I was, the prospect of such a bed, after nine or ten hours' ride, was not over pleasant. However, there was no invidious distinction in the way of accommodation ; from the general himself to the trumpeter of the troop it was the same ; so down I lay, like Don Juan and his shipwrecked tnessmates, " With nothing but the sky for a great coat." Unpleasantly cool, however, as was this sub-Jove resting place, it had one advantage over every other I have yet met with since I stepped upon Turkish soil— fleas and bugs there were none, and this negative luxury went far to counterbalance the discomfort of the heavy night dew above and the damp earth beneath. Of the extent to which these two classes of vermin —especially the former—torture one in this country, few but those who have suffered from. their_ lacerations can form an idea. lam much inclined to think that if home insur ance companies knew of their terrific voracity, they would charge a weighty extra premium to all policy hol ders travelling in (especially Asiatic) Turkish territory. No language of mine can describe the misery they occa sion, or the duration and painfulness of the wounds they inflict; let thOse who doubt this statement make a week's experiment, and I'll forgive their previous unbelief. By dawn we were again on horseback, and commenced preparations for the reconnaissance. The best point for this being the summit of a small mountain close upon the river, we wound round it, and after nearly an hour's scrambling reached an elevation, whence a perfect view could be had of the Muscovites in camp, and of Giunri beyond. The encampment consists of between four and five hundred tents, and lies on a small plateau, about. the same number of perches on the Georgian side of the Karstchai, presenting altogether but a poor ap pearance when compared with the imposing array at present collected at Kars. The entire Russian force in camp at this spot and in Giunri is supposed to be about 25.000 men, an army which could be numerically beaten at an hours' notice from this alone without draw ing a man from the outposts or advanced camps. Why it and the supplemental rabble of disaffected irregulars, which may double its number, have not been driven back over the Caucasus at leapt two months ago, it puzzles every one but the Mushir to understand. After a lengthened observation of the points above mentioned, and of those at which a passage across the river—which is narrow but deep—would be practicable-for a large body of troops, we descended the mountain, and began our return to Kars, which we reached only as the sun was sinking behind the north-western hills. Speaking for myself, lean confidently vouch that a two-days' fast —for having unwisely declined the bread at Subitan, I saw no more till we returned—to say nothing of a night upon an open field—is a spareness of diet not to be re commended, especially in conjunction with an interim ride of more than sixty miles. To these brief notes of amateur soldiering, I have only to add, as symptomatic intelligence, that since the date of my last letter, between three and four thousand (Arab) Bashi Bazouks have arrived, and will be sent on to the frontier immediately ; that one regiment of in fantry (the 6th Anatolian) marched for the same point this morning ; and that General Guyon leaves to morrow for another reconnaissance, and to mark out some field works at the outposts—movements which, with other local signs, render me confident in predicting early "fun." Before the present moon is out I hope to date from Georgia. CITY COURT OF SEWERS. SANITARY MATTERS. • At a Court held on Tuesday a long discussion took place upon a petition from persons who are in the habit of removing blood and offal from slaughterhouses for the use of the sugar refiners, objecting to an order made at the last Court to the effect that such should only be re moved at night. The beadle of Newgate-market was heard on the subject of the inconvenience and annoyance caused by the strict enforcement of the order ; and other evidence was taken, all of which tended to show that all parties were desirous of remedying the nuisance caused by the matter in question being left on the pre mises for a length of time. An order was ultimately issued, requiring that the offensive stuff complained of should be removed twice in every 24 hours. It was stated that Mr. Daw, the clerk of the court, had been in communication wit h the various unions of the city on matters! connected ;with the medical departments, and that everything connected with sa nitary affairs was referred to the Medical Officer of Health. CHOLERA IN THE CITY. In the report of the Medical Officer of Health ap- , peared the following paragraph " I very deeply regret to inform your hon.

The last day of the session is now rapidly approaching, and the Ministers are about to eat their Greenwich dinner. Let us inquire what they have done to deserve it. They began the session by a statement that they had done their utmost to preserve peace, and had augmented the naval and military forces to effect this object ; at its close the country is at war, which they have shown themselves alike incapable of preventing, or of conduct ing when it became unavoidable. In January the re venue was more than adequate to the demands of the public service ; since January we have had votes of credit, new taxes, largely increased expenditure,— with the loss of the Tiger, with the deaths of Captains Giffard and Parker, to show foronr money. Ministers had an excellent cause. Justice and popular feeling were on their side, but by tampering with despotism, waiting for the support of Austria, and seeking for the approval of Prussia, they have cooled the public enthusiasm and almost begotten distrust in the cause they have mis managed. At the end of the session, looking more at our own hopes and exertions than at the unexpected successes of the Turks, the poSition of the country is far less advantageous than at its commencement. If Ministers had neglected the war to promote the " arts of peace, 'or if they had treated these as unimportant . while they bad vigorously prosecuted the war, Ye shouter have found an apology for their failure in their oonsis tency. But they have attempted to do both, and have accomplished neither. The nation and its representa tives, surpassing the Ministers in zeal to prosecute the w w i a t r h , haveut a m cheerfully avfihyve submittedote to thedallnescesary n supplies, o s ie , and f an unamended and odious system of taxation. Minis ters cannot complain of money being begrudged to carry c o o n n t t he rib n w t a i o r , but h n s havet e peop le been nfritteredcomplain t w h at their r thless ly generous aw ay. Neither by successful war, nor by useful legislation, have they been gratified ; and at the end of six months' labour, under the guidance of the Ministers, the Parliament se parates damaged, like them, in the public estimation. In January 'the nation was promised further reforms in the criminal and ecclesiastical law : nothing has been done. The Royal Speech an nounced a measure to improve the Poor-law : such a measure was brought in, but it was burk e d by the Ministers themsel ves , who almost broke up their administration by their unseemly treatment of a subordinate, and their disunion about removing -pail pers. For more than four months they have directed the deliberations of Parliament to their promised mea sure to check bribery and corruption. It has at length • reached its final stage, but so mangled and mutilated, that their supporters know not what it means, and decry it as giving a license to the very evil it was proposed to eradicate. A plan was promised for the improvement of the Civil Service. This is much needed, though we differ from the Ministers as to what should be done. But Ministers have done nothing. The Civil Service remains unreformed, though not unstigmatised in the Royal Speech. More than the reform of the Civil Service, which was the measure of the Ministers, the people had at heart the abolition or amendment of antiquated oaths, which withhold from them the services of men they elect. Over and over again have the Ministers pledged themselves to remove this insulting and galling fetter. They feebly tried, and were defeated. The honest but small remnant of bigotry which still lingers .in the House of Commons was too strong for their half-heartedness, and the Whig hero of reform continues' in office, though he was defeated and humiliated by Sir Frederick Thesiger: Pledges unfulfilled, promises broken, hopes deceived, are the characteristics of the session and the Ministers. Often defeated, they practically proved before its close, though they could not unite their heterogeneous oppo nents, they could disunite their friends. Powerful at its commencement, they arc without efficient support at its close. They are defeated night after night, -and have only to thank the damaged character of Lord Derby and Mr. Disraeli for being suffered to continue in office. Though the war was a sufficient excuse for stopping Parliamentary Reform, it did not arrest that of the uni versities. Off and on the Parlia nent has been enga g ed for four months in improvi ng t h e hi g h sc h oo l s of the country. There was some danger in allowing this ne cessary measure to stand over till Parliament was re formed, and a vigorous ministry in office. Whenever public opinion is fully and fairly beard; the worn-out eniversity system will not ba very tenderly dealt with. Tt was convenient, therefore, to promote the reform while one of their representatives was in office ; and while' the . Idle doctors of Cambridge and Oxford count in the national representation for as much as the indus- , trions electors of Birmingham and Liverpool, or of Finsbury and Marylebone. The time that.might have been given to Parliamentary Reform or to urging on the war has been appropriated to effecting a peddling change in the universities, in order to protect them in the possession of their immunities, and to shield their costly inefficiency. The great measure of the session is University Reform, which, like too many other half-and half and sham measures of our day, is rather intended to cheat than to realise the just hopes and desires of the people. Cine of the earliest measures of the session intro duced in the very first week was the bill to simplify and improve the public accounts. This practical measure has long been demanded by liberal reformers as neces sary to clear up mystery, to enable the public to understand the public accounts, and become acquainted with the actual cost of the Government. Mr. Gladstone and his friends took great praise to themselves for intro ducing it, and made out of it a great heap of political capital. A few items were to be transferred, it was said, to the Consolidated Fund, but a much larger amount of expenditure, all the charges for collecting the revenue, were, for the first time, to be brought under the supervision of the House of Commons, and annually voted. Estimates of the charges were prepared and laid before Parliament. The measure was cordially hailed' by the liberals, and was even applauded by Mr. Disraeli.. What has become of it ? Till the end of June it was allowed to lie unheeded on the table of the Commons,snd was sent up to the Lords about the middle ofJuly, early teinoonu, and too enough o allow late fo them r :h oepopul arsubject poweri tt o athx fierce e e e x r at t examina tion, i itself should the Lords mishandle the bill.

Committee d doubtful b w Almost every reign commences in exultation and ends -in despair.. Many a young monarch mounts his throne amidst the applauses of his people, and ere he quits it hides himself in the recesses of his palace from their hatred and their curses. So it is with Parliaments. Yell . after year, they assemble amidst the hopes and the acclama tions of the people only to dwindle away at the close of the session amidst their jeers or their hisses.

Somewhat, therefore, the people are always to blame for renewing each January the hopes that have been disappointed in the previous August. Such has been for some years the annual course, and there is no reason why 1854 should differ from its predecessors. But the Coalition Ministry —proud of their concentrated abilities, promised largely and encouraged great expec tations, while they have effected next to nothing. Nei ther successful in war nor in the arts of peace, they aro an example of failure which excites astonishment eves where failure is habitual. Many bills have indeed been brought in, and an almost equal number of points have been unsettled. The mercantile marine has been legis lated about, but not satisfactorily, and a Secretary . of War has been established and his salary provided.; but, except one Measure, all useful reform has been stifled or • withheld.
