Its distinguishing feature.is, that in it all the stredts, squares, crescents, &c., &c:, of 'the metropolis and its snb'irbs appear in one general alphabetical arrangement ; it is, therefore, the only work in which the occupant of any house can be ascertained. The 152,416 names are carried into all the classifications to which thee are appropriate, each in its proper alphabetical position; all the members of any profe.ston or trade, whether in the metropolis or its suburbs, are (in the" Trades" division) arranged alphabetically in one list. This being the only work in which they are so, is the only one in which all the mem'sers of any trade can be ascertained. The nobility, gentry, and professional - persess resident in London end its suburbs, are included-in the one general" Court" alphabetical list, now so greatly extended that it inc udes upwards of Forty-four thousand names.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con formances resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have proaaced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologiste. 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 e 'titled. It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know , that there al% principles of personal management which cannot bo violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the 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 consequences may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. Tli °Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive Practice in the treatment of these delicate cornplainte, which have unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of Ignorant empirics, who indict great injure or• those who are induced to place faith in their proteLai;ml.

In the "Review" we rreclicted that no full and precise explanation would be attempted, and the result has proved the accaracy of the prediction : instead of an open and direct answer in print, the pro jector has forwarded written statements to individuals ecmplaining of our "incessant" attacks upon his book, but omitting to state that the staple of each of these consists of au exposurs of stale, oil re printed blunders, each thne a different catalogue from that appa rently inexhaustible blunder-mine—Watkins's Directory.

Nov. 2(1, 1854. DRURY-LANE THEATRE. The gallantry of the Allied armies in the Crimea could not remain unnoticed by 31. Jullien, who has written a quadrille, in his own peculiar way, descriptive of every thing that ought to be described, and spiced with a pro fusion of those effects of which ho is so ingenious and profound a master. The first performance took place last night, and to tell how M. Jullien has illustrated this scerCe of tumult and confusion would be impossible. He has outshone himself, lustrous; as he is in such inven tions and in the art of piling military blasts one upon another until the ear aches wi,,h resonance. The great effect was reserved for the - climax, which was scenic as well as musical. ' A curtain hang ing over the rear of the orchestra, suddenly rose, and discovered the word "Alma," glittering in the centre of a crystal wreath, while a company of the Grenadier Guards descended from the right, followed by an equal number of the French infantry, who settled themselves opposite, the back ground being filled with Turks. The excitement of the audience at this stage of the affair was immense, and the quadrille closed amid demonstrations of the most clamorous kind. M. Jullien, who com manded i■ person, manifested all the fervour and energy of a field-marshal. His eye was in all parts of the orchestra. There was no lagging anywhere. He brought his troops to the scratch with the rapidity of lightning, and they responded to his signals with a spirit worthy of the Crimea itself. The quadrille, in a word, was highly succ►ssful. HA YMARKET TH EATRE. A very elegant and ingenious little comedy, in one act, was produced here last night, with the heartiest suc cess. It is entitled The Balance of Comfort, and is from the pen of Mr. Bayle Bernard. The comedy of last night turns on an incident in the lives of a Mr. and Mrs. Torrington, Mr. Howe and Miss Reynolds. This fashionable couple have quarrelled and parted, owing to dissimilarity of tastes. The lady being all for retire ment and intellectual pleasures, and the gentleman de voted to travelling excitements and wild sports. The lady has two lovers—a Mr. Pollard, a squire, Mr. Rogers, and a very peppery little Captain Sheepshanks, Mr. Clark, and their perpetual jealousy and wrangling are very amusing. The acting principally rests with Miss Reynolds, and a very pretty varied portrait she has made of the wife ; giving the chameleon changes of the woman, a little neglected, but toe spirited to formally resent it, and of one gifted with talents for society, forcing herself to be all intellectual. It is one of the most finished per formances we have seen, and is a genuine bit of high comedy, and is a delineation which this pleasing actress will long keep in her repertoire. Mr. Howe was lighter tkan we have ever seen him, and hit the exact amount of earnestness required very well, and was admirably dressed—as, indeed, wero all the characters. Mr. Buckstone returns after his long absence, on Saturday evening, and we trust with renewed health and spirits. LAW INTELLIGENCE...-(TIES DAY.) QUEEN'S BENCH.' ARCHDEACON DENISON'S CASE. Lord Campbell delivered the judgment of the court in this case this morning. It was an application fir a writ of prohibition to restrain the Archbishop of Canterbury from proceeding" by way of commission to ascertain if the archdeacon ° had preached doctrines relative to the Holy Eucharist which were contrary to the Thirty-nine Articles of the Church of England. The court were of opinion that the late Bishop of Bath and Wells had taken no judicial cognisance of the matter, under the 13th of Elizabeth, but had merely entered into a correspondence with the archdeacon for the purpose of making up his mind whether or no proceedings should ho instituted in the Court of Arches. It could not be said, therefore, that the matter had been placed beyond the jurisdiction of the Archbishop of Canterbury, who had unlimited authority under the Church Discipline Oct to issue the commission which the archdeacon sought to have pro hibited ; and under these circumstances, the court having read the affidavits on which this motion was founded, and having deliberately considered the statutes and authori ties cited in support of it, were of opinion that the rule ought not to be granted. Rule refused acordingly, . RUSSIA. A letter from St. Petersburg, of the 13th, in the National Gazette of Berlin, says As in former wars, we deeply feel in this the effects of the vicious state of our administrative organisation. The results obtained by the Russian armies are far below what might have been anticipated from the quantity of men, stor6s, - and money emplgyed. As long as the manufacture of arms, artillery, and powder, suffers from the abuses which the Emperor has vainly striven to eradicate, the Western Powers will undoubtedly maintain their superiority in the art of war. The muskets bought at Liege are the only good ones in the Russian army. The military governors of the four quarters of the capital have received high praise for the zeal they displayed during the passage of the troops." A letter from Odessa of the 12th, in the German Journal of Frankfort ; states that General Annen koff received from Prince Menschikoff on the pre vious evening ordors to send all the cavalry he could divose of to the Crimea, and that the general had executed them so fully that only three squadrons remained at Odessa. The St. Petersburg Journal publishes a long bulletin from the Russian army of the Caucasus, according to which, as usual, the Russians boast of continued successes. They pretend that in one affair with Schamyl they made him fly, leaving . 400 dead on the field of battle, whilst the Russians only lost 13 killed and 35 wounded. THE BALTIC. A letter from Berlin, of Nov. 21, emanating from Russian sources, and put forth for . obvious pur poses, has-gone the round of divers journals, to the effect that a squadron of 14 or 15 Russian steamers had put out from Cronstadt and Sweaborg, and pushed down the Gulf of Finland as fax as Dagoe, and this without encountering any of the British squadron left under Capt. Watson to watch those parts. Now, it is not impossible that one oriwo Rus sian steamers may have had the courage to sally forth, and scud from ono placo to molter, as a sort' Of bravado. But a squadron no more dare to rtm ' down to Dagoe, or leave sight of harbour, than'to sail direct for the North Sea. Captain Watson and his squadron are still up in the gulf, but may bo expected to be withdrawn in A few days, if the ice has well set in. We have, in fact, already passed the average pe r i o d which le experience of centuries has shown to be that when the Neva aid all creeks and inlets are hard frozen. Meantime Sir Charles's squadron rides quietly at Kiel, where they are abundantly supplied with fresh meat and vegetables, and where, to the great satisfaction of merchants and tradesmen, the officers and crews ' freely spend their money. The health of the crows is all that can be desired. AUSTRIA. The following despatches, forwarded from Czer novitz, appears in the Presse - " KISCHENEFF, Nov. 17.—The Grand Dukes Nicholas and Michael have returned to this city from Sebastopol. It is probable that the Emperor himself will come hero in the month of December. It is expected and feared that Omar Pacha is on the point of making an inroad into Bes sarabia. An attempt was made to bring into circulation a proclamation published by Dervish Pasha on the •sub ject of the invasion, but the Russian authorities managed to lay bands on all the copies.

A telegraphic despatch from - Varna, announces that, on the 9th, 3,000 French soldiers loft that port in five transport ships for Balaklava, taking with them 20 heavy guns, which had been brought from Gallipoli. They were followed ,the next day by 2,000 Turks and 18 guns. • ' The Lloyd of Vi enna states that the proposition of Russia . to negotiate with Au - stria on the basis of the four points has been rejected by the latter, since she cann o t negotiate. alone upon those points which have been laid down by' the four Powers of the Conference of 'Vienna, but must refer the Czar to those Powers, them. if he is desirous of accepting DENMARK..

Galtgnancs Messenger says • «We think that we finay announce that yceter - - - LIEUTENANT PERRY. The letter just published from Mr. Perry, describing the investment he had contemplated of the funds lately subscribed as a testimonial to him, will cause the contri butors to feel great satisfaction that his dranght was not honoured, and that the amount is still safe. There is nothing in this communication discreditable to Mr. Perry, but it shows that, so far as his pecuniary interests are concerned, he has fallen in with advisers who might expeditiously ruin any Man inexperienced in financial affairs. It appears that he was desirous of placing the sum subscribed for bins, together with the proceeds of his commission, amounting together to 2,0001., in an undertaking called the Galveston, Houston, and Henderson Railway, realis ing, according to the representations of a friend, "a partner in one of the first banking-houses in Paris," an annual return of from 6to 8 per cent. The Paris banker may,have had the best intentions, but, if Mr. Perry has gained any solid information about the scheme in ques tion, it will be new not only to the capitalists gene rally of London and Paris,. but also to those of New York. In a, careful map published last year by the editor of the American, Railroad ..roamed of all the railways in the United States, the line in question Was not marked even as having been projected, and from the advices received month after month since that ,date, showing a ruinous fall in every description of rail way investment, the public are iu a position to judge how far any proposals for a long line in Texas are likely to have been:entertained. At present any person desi rous of - investing in American railroads may purchase stocks or bonds of the oldest and best conducted companies at prices that will not only yield .6 or 8 per cent., but from 10 to 20 per cent. This depreciation has resulted from the malversations of the most promi nent persons in that department of enterprise, and the discovery that for years past dividends have been de clared in a► vast number of instances without any re ference to the cost •f working or maintenanoe, the funds for such distributions being regularly derived from the unlimited issue of mortgage bonds, until the war rendered them unsaleable in England or on the con tinent. Under these circumstances an announcement of an intended purchase of Poyais bonds would not seem snore extraordinary than that of shares in a Texan rail way. The financial history of Texas, from its first sepa ration from Mexico and its subsequent annexation to the American Union, has . been one of notorious default, and her territory in the first instance was peopled largely, net only by planters and their slaves from the repudiating States of Arkansas and Mis sissippi, but by a large number of persons who had found it expedient, for other reasons than inclination, to depart eves from those communities. That the country is in a certain sense becoming rapidly prosperous is, of course, an inevitable consequence of American' energy, but to the European world the chief advices of its existence still come in the shape of border conflicts with the Mexicans ; and .it may be apprehended that if Mr. Perry, a month after making the proposed investment, were to change his mind and wish his money back, he would find that, whether he might offer his 2,000/. stock on this side, or on the Exchanges of Boston, New York, and Philadelphia, he would not meet With an in dividual who would be willing to buy it of him at a shilling in the pOund.---L.Tintes City lirticle, POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

The prisoner was apprehended by Thain and Webb at a house at Brentwood, in whisk he had been living for a considerable time. Cole, it will be remembered, was convicted a few ses sions ago. Mr. Humphreys, jun., of the firm of Humphreys and Co., attended for the prosecution, Mr. Murray attended for tke assignees of Cole, and Mr. Digby appeared for the prisoner. Thain said—l produce a warrant against the prisoner which I received from Alderman Sidney when Lord Mayor. I apprehended the prisoner at Brentwood yes terday afternoon, and I know him to be the person re ferred to in the warrant. Mr.. Seton Laing; of 39, Mincing-laae, said—We; are colonial brokers. The defendant is, to my knowledge, the person mentioned in the warrant. He has been in dicted for the fraud stated in that warrant, and six true bills have been found against hire, upon which he has not been tried, and if time be given certificates of those indictments can be produced. The prisoner was then remanded.

LORD ST.A; Lry AND SLR ROBERT REEL AT P 11E8T-61\7: PRESTON, Nov. .23. Last night a literary soiree was, held at the institu tion for the Diffusion.of:Kno wieelge in this . town ; the attendance including the Hon. Lard Stanley, M.P., - Sir Robert Peel, Bart.,. M.P., M. R . F ord, of -Read Hal; High Sheriff of Lancashire, Mr. J. W. Patten, and Mr. James Heywood, members of the northern division of the county, and other influential gentlemen. Lord .. - ' 4 .I7ANLEY allressed the assembly as follows : Ladies and gentlemen—l dare say that many of you will feel, as I confess that I do, that something like an apo logy is required for undertaking to call your att en ti on at a time like this—at a time o great and almost un precedented national excitement—for undertaking to call your attention front that subject with which all men's minds are occupied, and on which all eyes are fixed, to matters wholly alien and distinct from that one subject of all-absorbing interest. At the same time Ido not think we shall be accused of any indifference to the •military honours of: this country, if, even at a critical 'moment of that which unfortunately threatens to be a prolonged • struggle, we endeavour to give a practical _proof that war ought not, and •.peed. not. ,interrupt the couree.of more•peaceful occupations. (9heers,) . On the contrary, as we are told, end told not untruly, that it is the inevitable tendency of foreign war, by absorbing, 'almost monopolisind, public attention, to check the pro epeiss of internal rerorm, and as that consideration neces- . sarily and naturally induces many persons to regard the etieiggle in which we are now engaged with feelings more unfavourable than those which they might ether wise en , tartain, I believe, that the.best scrvice--rperhap§ the 9 1 4 sereice which we can render—perhaps .the only way in which we can co=operate with those who are fig-hting our battles abroad---is: to g ive to the coun try- a practical - evidence that their - exertions do not tend to paralyse ours—that social progress, that internal improvement, that intellectual culti vation, that care for-the wants of , the poorer classes, are not interrupted even by the existence of a most foralid able foreign contest. (Loud cheers.) Well, ladies and gentlemen, I do - not suppOse it ne.ces!cary to state.at any letigth the cirearnstanctis under which we are met. We are met, after a. colleetife . existence of something more than a quarter of a century—we are met here to cele brate the 20th . anniversary of this institution. You have this evening heard the satisfactory announcement that there rests upon yoUr finances no remains whatever of .debt. . The institution is totally - free and unencum bered. (Hear.) It numbers upwards of six hundred members; it enjoys a clear income which exceeds 3001. a year ; it is now carrying on the education of above one hundred and eighty stulents in its various classes ; and its library contains more than 5,000 volumes, which are freely circulated arnongSt its members. These, gentle men, are briefly the leading facts as connected with this institution. Yon have probably very often heard it said—and there is a good deal of truth in the remark— that mechanics' institutions have answered their purpose exceedingly well, except.that it is apt to happen that there are no mechanics in them—(laughter, and hear) — that is to say, that institutions originally established, if not entirely, at least mainly, for the benefit of the work ing-class, have a natural tendency, Barely, perhaps, from some apathy in that class ; peaty, it May he, in some cases, from the subscription being fixed too high ; partly from some feeling of pride which makes the various classes reluctant to mix ; but whatever may be the cause, it is a very common result that institutions originally established principally or exclusiVely for the benefit of the working-class ilo not comprise many members of that class. But,, though they are useful, they be come useful in a different way ; they become institu tions more for the benefit of the middle and trading classei. (Hear, hear.) Ido not say how 'far that is the case here, because, although I made inquiry into the subject, I could not precisely ascertain . what num ber of bond fide operatives you hare upon your list of subscribers ; but I believe from all I hear that it is not considerable, and somewhat less than it ought to be. (Bear, hear.) And I should venture to urge upon those who have the management of the affairs of this institu tion, seeing how complete and entire their success has been in every other respect, to make that the next point, the next object to which their efforts are directed, and to do all in their power to induce and to urge the work ing men of Preston to join more fully than they have hitherto done—l do not say in promoting thisinstitu tion, but in sharing the benefits which it confers. (Cheers.) Let us consider, if possible, without vague ness and without exaggeration of phrase, what are the purposes, what are the objects, which a society of this kind fulfils. There are two points of view in which it may be regarded—the social and the educational. First, as to what I call the social point of view. Now we all knew, we all perceive, that society in the present day is in many respects constituted very differently from what it was in former times. Various causes have operated upon it ; perhaps amongst those causes the principal and most apparent has been that increase of local communi cation which tends almost to destroy, within, at least, the area of this country, all separations produced by space. New, on the whole, there is, of course, no doubt—the man would be insane who denied it—there is no doubt that that increased facility of communication has been productive of very great benefit to the community ; but, like every other benefit in this world, it has its accom panying evils. And one of these evils, I think, is a tendency, an increased tendency, which most people notice, and which has been very frequently a subject of discussion—a tendency to a disruption of local con nections and ties. (Hear, bear.) I think wo shall fled, if you compare the state of society now with what it was 50, or still more 100 years ago, that men in the same class, following the same occupation, though in different parts if the country, are in much closer and more inti mate relation one with another than persons in different classes, following different occupations, who reside in the same immediate locality. (Hear, hear.) The tie of class becomes stronger, the tie of local proximity be comes comparatively weaker.- Now, no doubt other causes concur, though in a lesser degree, to increase that division between Cllsses. There is among the wealthy, perhaps,.greater luxury and refinement ; there is among the working classes—and I for one don't regret to see it—a more serongly-develeped feeling of independence, which makes them reluctant to meet those who, per haps, they think do not meet them on equal terms ; and there is, ne doubt, also the pressure of severer labour upon all classes, consequent upon the increased activity if our age. But be the causes what they may the re- Ault, I think, is certain. And what we want to 'do is, vvhat , it is important to do is, to find for this severance, for this disruption of local tie., a remedy which shall be efficacious and universal. (Hear, hear.) The only re medy which I know is, so far as it is possible, to pro vide common pursuits, to provide common occupations and amusements, to induce different classes to meet one another more free!y, so, as to make people think a little e_se of their individual place and station in society, and little mere of their duties to society. (Hear, hear.) For myself, I consider that every pound and every shil ling which is subscribed to institutions of this kind, or to free libraries, or to public baths, or to museums, or parks and gardens, for the use of the public -= every shilling which is subscribed in that way from private funds to a public and general object, is so much cleat' gain to the country ; it is so much taken away from that enormous waste which is produced by private and what one must call selfish luxuryit is so much taken away from that w:iste and employed for the public advantage. (Cheers.) You have all probably heard in the last few years a great deal said about the want of *a system of national educa tion. A great deal is said of the want of a proper supply of schools for the working classes.: Now lam very far from denying that such a deficiency does really exist. But I believe, if we came to look into the matter accu rately, wo should find that our first and principal want is net so much a greater number, as an improved Qua lity of schools. Now in this matter Parliament may do something ; whether it will is another question. govern ment inspectors may do a little in raising the standard of teaching ; but, after all, neither Parliament nor Go- vernment can do all 'that is wanted. The principal labour, the principal responsibility, must rest, after ail, on the parents, and upon no other persons. (Hear, hear.) Well, what you have to do, then, if you want. a better system of teaching fur children—what you have to do is, to overcome Ale apathy and indifference of the parents. Now, of those parents there are many who were themselves brought up in ignorance, and who therefore as a general rule cannot be expected to have much feeling of the advantages of education. But there are many others who, having themselves received in their early days a more or less good elementary education, are nevertheless quite indifferent to their children- re ceiving the same, on this account—they say, "We were taught at school ; we learnt to read and write, we left school, and after we left schoOl we found that no boots were put in our way. It was only thatoccasionfally could got a newspaper. We bad no meats usin g o nha those ur acquirements, which we gained with so mulbe at ! school, and therefore they have been comparative l y less." I have heard that language held beforeerceive what I I cannot say it was held untruly. now, unsned am coming to. What I desire to l :u e r u e p is , valued, you must that if you want school instruction to be properly make it valuable. It is not valuable °Pe g man, for the grown rYunless for the boy who has left school, for the man of all ages, you profiting by that power provide bollY/hUinn- e a s of continuing his education, or, at all eveats, n p i l e e a a t s l s u r o e f which ho has gained of reavdiidneg w bi i , t is h w e i a t s b e to himself—unless you which t a h n e d in his early days he has of using that power n net labeur. This, then, is the acquired with so ni x principal object of istiteutiens of this kind. You supply s you give instruction by means books, you supply c ass , , of lectures to the adult popula.tin. Once interest the grown men and women, adult population, once interest fathers and mothers, in this work of education, and it, in a very few yea r s , you will have such a 1 t ea ching improved iii quality and extended demand in rely quantity,nPn fnor as will compel tho passing---or, what would be still better, as would supersede the passing of a Par liamentary measure on the subject.

(Hear.) And if I were to mention men of the present day who are following, at least so far as indes try and energy goes, in the step's of those whont I have named, I believe I might allude to at least one indivi dual, an inhabitant of this town—a man who long was, . and I believe is, a member of this institution—a man who has obtained from the books of this institution the greater part of the knowledge which he at present pos. seeses—l will not name him, because I believe his mo desty is eq ua l t o hi s acqu i r ements ; but I may mentiaa that he is now at the University, is expected to take a very high degree, and will probably, in methernatical science, accomplish' no iuconsidera'ele reputation.

(Hear.) I think that is an error in any case; 41 the case of the - working man, overtasked as he is, I am ;re it is a fatal mistake. (Hear.) It is easy to say at more holidays should be given, and the hours of Iken- matte fewer, bat it must, be recollected that we avc to oumpete, and compete under some disadvan ges, both in manufactures and agriculture, with the • dustry ot the world, and we cannot afford to relax our fforts in any way.

But we alt - ktiow that ieligions duties being discharged as well - or better than ' iiany perform them, there still remains a very large mount of time which by working men in general is peed in idleness--by a go"od many in something worse. believe the greatest educational reform which you ould bring about would be to snake men understand . hat intellectual culture is an object which may properly 1 e pursued Lyon that which our religion declares to be day of rest. Knowledge is not profane, but sacred, nd so far from such an application of a part of that day sing contrary to, I !tensile it would simply be a carrying ut of, the purposes for which that day itself was in tituted. (Applause.) One word I would say to those ho feel—as perhaps most reflecting persons in this ge do—who feel a deep interest in the progress of po ular education. I would tell them not to rely upon'any hing that the Legislature can do. The problem of a aye am of national instruction is not so simple as it seems. any persons do not see their way through it •, some, per aps, will not see their way through it. In any case, he best course, the wisest and safest course, is to rely pen our own energies, is to promote education by such. uch means as are in cur power—and among such means • . rank as foremost institutions of this kind—is to place • he means of knowledge, the means of instruction, in he hands of the working man ; and when you have , • • efiliene time; you may feet assured - you will -not find him hither ungrateful for the privilege or incapable of using fit. (The noble lord sat down amid hearty applause.) Sir ROBERT PEEL, on risieg, was greeted with loud nd prolonged plaudits. After acknowledging the flat ering welcome he had received, he remarked that • ngland had made mere rapid progress than auy other ,Country in the world in what were called the arts of ma terial civilisation—that was to say, in the comforts and conveniences of life. And what was this owing to ? IWhy, it was industry carrying with it its own recotn pence. We all knew it was our industry and our liberties ! coupled together which had given us our greatness ; , therefore ail classes should co-operate in endeavouring ito extend am eegst the people industrial habits and edu jational pursuits, and then we should have no reason to apprehend the diminution of this country's power, or . the inroads and aggressions of Russian hostility. (Hear, ear.) How, he would ask, was this institution keep fng pace with tie requirements of the age ? Were they *ming that true currency of progress which alone was early valuable ? Were the working classes of this own, as they were at Sheffield and elsewhere, placing !their institution upon a firm basis, rendering it as Much as possible independent of extraneous aid 'mud of lukewarm friends ? Lectures and other sub. ects had been referred to. Now he understood ;hey had it library, on the shelves of which' were nu serous entertaining works, calculated to induce in their . . ainds a taste for reading. He would urge every one to :ultivate that taste ; it was the most happy of all tastes...
