To all persons so circumstanced as to require the professional aid of men of experience, whose time has been for twenty years studiously and snc cessfully devoted to the complaints siising from nervous debility, whether natural or acquired, GOSS and CO. proffer the most consolatory assurances. The youth who has enervated his frame by the strangely fascinating sin, which the poor victim of fully will too readily comprehend without further description, may find relief from his misery, and be kindly taught to regain his lost place in the scale of creation. The sufferer who, from another extreme of in dulgence, has with unbasliful forehead, wooed debility, may learn to renovate nature, and repair his abused con stitution. The man of pleasure exposed to and suffering from Lues Venerea, however aggravated by malpractice of the quack, or the concealment from diffidence, may find a certain restoration ; and finally in cases where the delay of a oonnubial pledge has almost extended disappointment to despair, they offer to the married female those hopes which she can reasonably appreciate. Remedies can be forwarded to any part of the world; Patients writing for the same, will please to enclose a Bank Note. Attendance at home for consultation as usual. GOSS and CO., Di. R. C.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE. LONDON MARKETS. (From the London New Price Current of yesterday.) Slit:JAlL—The estimated sales this week are 2,200 Ude. and tierces, which, considering the large sales of Mauritius, and the small show of West India Sugars in this market, is a large sale. Several brokers have no Muscovades on sale. We think the market rather higher, and the holders more firm. In refined there has been rather more business, particularly for export. The demand for the low and middling descriptions of shipping qualities has increased in the Refined Market this afternoon, and, as the market continues to be but scantily supplied with these descriptions of goods, some difficulty has been experienced in executing orders to any extent for immediate delivery, more particularly in middling sorts. The refiners also have been very firm in their demand, and, in many in stances, have obtained a trifling advance ; in the finer de scriptions for shipping, say Hamburg and Powder Loaves, there has also been a little business done, and the quota tions remain the same as last week. In crashed, also, there has been some business done, but the scarcity of the middling descriptions of lumps and loaves prevents any large sales from being made. Molasses dull and lower. FOREIGN SUGARS.—There have been inquiries after Foreign sugars, but few purchases are reported ; by pri vate contract a small parcel of white greyish Bahia at 255., and damaged white Pernams, 16s. a 275. This day, by public sale, 122 chests Havannah, 224 chests Brasil Sugar, the former, middling to fine white, was taken in 40s. a 445., the latter, good to fine white, 30s. a 355. ; only a part of the damaged sold. EAST INDIA SUGARS.—This week about 20,000 bags Mauritius Sugars have been brought forward at public sale ; early in the week they have gone off steadily, but without briskness ; the quantity to• day (included in the above) was 6,400 bags, chiefly of good quality ; the whole sold with Lr skness, 465. a 545., being at full market prices. WEST INDIA MOLASSES.—A parcel of Demerara Mo lasses has been sold, 20s. and 20s. 6d. COFFEE.-The Coffee Market has been very dull; all the prices are Is. a 2s. lower ; for good ord. old St. Do mingo 31s. was only offered, the parcel was taken in at 325. ; Batavia, 31s. 6d. ; some good Mocha sold at high prices, 104.5. a 105 s. We cannot quote any reduction in the prices of good and fine British Plantation Coffee, but the market is very heavy, and the lower qualities at a re duction of Is. a 2s. This day, at public sale, 1,072 bags Mysore, 35 bags Mocha, 149 bags Brazil, and 42 casks 511 bags British Plantation description ; the My sore about a half sold 465. a 50s. 6d. ; Mocha sold at 90s. : the Brazil was damaged, slightly coloury sold at 3]s. ; the British Plantation sold at former prices, the good and tine rather higher. INDIGO.—The quantity declared for the East India sale is now nearly 4,000 chests; there is no alteration in the prices. CorroN.—The late advance in prices is fully main tained. The purchases for the week ending last night, in clusive, consist of 180 Bengal, 4d. a 4 d. ; 1,700 Surat, aid. a 51d. ; 70 Bowed, bad. The letters from the ma nufacturing districts are still very favourable. (ANOTHER ACCOUNT.) SUGAR.-The demand for British Plantation Sugars, particularly refining qualities, has been rather active this week, and full prices readily obtained. Good Grocery sorts are also quickly bought up, and the total sales in the week ending this morning are full 2,500 hhds. The pre- sent stock is 6,070 hhds. and 530 trcs. more than in the corresponding week of last year. Yellow Havannah Sugars are inquired after, but prices are not higher. Good White are rather under 475. The present stock of Foreign Sugars consists of 11,522 chests of Havannah, 1,410 chests of Brazil, and 154 Mids. of Porto Rico. Of the 12,500 bagS of Mauritius offered within the last four or five dayS, the shippers have bought pretty largely at a re duction of Is. per cwt. Good and fine. Brown is quoted 455. to 475. per cwt. The total importation this year is 130,512 bags, and the stock now is 74,870 bags. Manilla Sugars are in demand, at ls. per cwt. advance. In Refined Goods not much is doing, the holders asking rather better prices. There are a few purchasers i❑ the market for the Hamburg and Mediterranean markets. SPICES.-The Spice Market is generally in a healthy state. About 200 bags of Black Pepper, publicly sold, realised 3ad. to 3 d., being id. advance, and went off briskly. About 120 bags of White Pepper, fetched from bid. to 7-id. per lb., being one penny per lb. advance. Cassia Lignea is from 665. to 68s. per cwt., and in demand. Roar.—The demand for Rum has in sense degree sub sided, but prices are firm. Proof Lewards are held at Is. 10d. The present stock of Runs is about 5,000 puncheons and '7OO hogsheads greater than in the cor responding week of last year. ' The DRUG market was perhaps never known to be in so dull a state as at the present moment. The dealing! in Russia TALLOW are limited, and the price is from 345. to 345. 3d. per cwt.-11E3n. is 01., and FLAX, P.T.R., at 351. 10s. per ton. :PRICES OF HOPS.—April 2.

It has been our own lot to be for years engaged in endeavouring, as often as occasion offered, to draw the attention ef Parliament and the public to the sanguinary nature of eur criminal law. The inflic tion of death for forgery, among others, we hare re peatedly deprecated as disproportionate to the of fence, repugnant to humanity, and opposed to the interests of justice. The power of public opinion has been, in the mean time, working its way through so ciety, and continually adding to the number of those who look to the amelioration of the criminal code ae one of the greatest triumphs which civilization has yet to achieve. On this subject not less than about GO petitions have been presented to the House of Com mons, in the present Sessions, from various cities, towns, and districts in England, besides the petition from the Society of Friends in Ireland, which Mr. Peel presented the other night. All these petitions were respectably and numerously signed ; and what is well worth observing in reference to petitions praying for an abolition of capital punishments in cases of forgery, they were signed by the bankers generally of the places from which they purported to come. It is also a strong attestation of the im proved state of the public feeling on this question, that the Magistrates and Clergy, in a considerable proportion, were among the petitioners. Having stated thus much, we will ask, is Mr. Peel's Bill relative to forgery calculated to satisfy the advo cates of rational and enlightened justice, so far as that branch of criminal law is concerned? and will it obviate all necessity for further petitioning on that particular question ? We confidently say it will do no such thing. What is it Mr. Peel pro poses to do ? Let us hear himself:—He " should retain the capital punishment in all forgeries of the Great Seal, Privy Seal, and Sign Manual. In forgeries of wills, on the public funds, on bank and money notes, or orders for the payment of money; in short, as to all documents which repre sent money, and are negotiable and transferable for it, he would remit the capital punishment in all those cases where serious doubts overhung its inflic tion, arid where the complainants, by due cautioa, could have saved themselves. Such us forging re ceipts for money, orders for the delivery of goods, forging stamps, uttering forged stamps, attempting to defraud by uttering forged orders for goods, the fabrication of the material of the Bank ef England paper, and forging deeds and bonds." As to all these forgeries Mr. Peel proposes to remit the ca pital punishment, because, he says, they come within the principle of prevention by the exercise of more diligence and caution in the transaction of butitie,a. Now, as to all practical purposes, we affirm Mr. Peel's Bill will leave the law of forgery just where he found it. For he only proposes to erase the punishment of death from the Statute Book in cases where the sentence of death is never actually carried into execution, and to leave the sanguinary law in all its force in those cases which are ever productive of the cruel and revolting' exhibitions which humanity deplores and rational justice condemns. In the de bate of Thursday night, Mr. F. Buxton is made to compliment Mr. Peel for the improvements whit :it he had introduced into the criminal law. This, we undee. stand, was a mistake; Mr. Buxton's eulogy on Mr. Peel's exertions having reference only to his regu lations for the better government of gaols, and no thing else. We knew that Mr. Buxton had been an advocate fora thorough reform of the Criminal Code, in which he delivered, daring a former debate, one of the best speeches of the kind ever delivered in the House of Commons; and we were therefore surprised to hear that he expressed something like satisfaction at the very limited and inefficient " amendment" of the law executed by Mr. Peel. We now say what we have repeatedly said before —that the punishment of death in all eases of forgery must be abolished. It is a question of principle, not of degree. Crimes of fraud should not be punished like crimes of dangerous violence and force. Forgery is a species of wri-ten fraud— in most cases to be guarded Arian by ordinary vigilance and caution. As the lait Row stands, it is little protection to commerce; Ito even in the city of London, a great proportion of forgeries go unpunished because the persons who sustain the loss revolt at shedding human blood for such an offence, though they would have no objection to any punish ment short of death. We must postpone other ob servations to a future opportunity.—Morn. Herald. The law of divorce in this country, like many other of the laws of England, is absurd in principle and unjust in practice. By our law the marriage bond is considered indissoluble, and so it is found to be by a vast majority of the King's subjects, but in practice, owing to the absolute power of the Legisla ture, it is as fragile and dissoluble as most other human engagements. Thus there is in this Waned country one law for the rich and another for the poor. No man who has not from 1,2001. to 2,0001, to dis tribute among lawyers can obtain any other disoree than a mere nominal separation from the most aban doned adultress that ever walked the streets. She remains the wife of the husband she has injured and disgraced while either live—she retains his name—she may reside on the opposite side of the street—she may expose her infamy in the pre sence of her wretched children—she may overage the feelings of their father by the daily exhibi tion of her paramour, while the unfortunate husband neither can obtain a female protector for his chil dren without committing an offence against morality, nor give them a stepmother without rendering him self liable to be tried as a felon and transported be yond seas. But if, on the other band, such a hus band can command from 1,200/. to 2,000/., he can apply to the Legislature is an oppressed subject, ob tain a divorce, marry again, and bury the sorrows of his former union in the affections of a more eirtuous obb „ jeo . esrt ru,tgs, companion. To call this a senseless or absurd law would not be saying enough. It is cruel, oppres sive, and unjust. It is injurious to morality—it is repugnant to Christianity—it is disgraceful to the ecclesiastical code of England. But we in Eng land care for none of these things. Oppres sion we submit to cheerfully—injustice is to us no reproach—the maxims of Christianity ire read backwards by the Bishops as the Lord's Prayer used to be by the witches, and we are all wonderfully happy and contented. Money can Lily any thing—a divorce and a third wife—a seat in Parliament and a Cyprian—a living in the church and a box at the Opera—a pint of wine in the Shades and a plate at Mr. Horace Twiss's dinners-.-an urticle in the Courier and a John Dory at Billingsgate.
