Under the following heads are briefly enumerated the leading principles of this Society : OBJECTS OF THE SOCIETE. 1. A Life Assurance may be effected either by One Payment, or by an Annual Premium. 2. Policies may be effected WITH or without the privilege of withdrawing one-half of the Annual Payments. If with out this privilege, the rates are lower. 3. A Life Assurance may be effected on the life of another, on Joint Lives or Survivorship!. 4. Annuities, Immediate, Deferred, or Contingent, will. be granted; also Endowments for Children. 5. Naval and Military Men, not in active foreign service, as sure I without extra charge, and allowed to go abroad with out forfeiture of Policy, on payment of an extra Premium, according to climate. _ . In the event of the Assured (when on the Withdrawal System) not requiring to continue the Policy, on its surrender one-half the annual payments will be returned by way of purchase of his interest therein. By this means, apprehension of great pecuniary loss and doubt as to the intrinsic transferable value of each Policy is re moved, its cash value being fixed and determined beforehand by the Society at one-half the annual premiums paid thereon : a vast class of society will thereby be admitted ; and every individual, while steadily pursuing one object—a provision for his family at death— will have, by the plan of this Society, a door open to his savings, which will never be closed against his wants or his use. Prospectuses, Report of last Annual Meeting, Forms of Proposals for Assurance, and every description of ne-essary Blank Forms, with Tables of Rates, and full information on all points, furnished, on ap plication at 26, Cornhill, or at any of the Company's Agencies.

Extracts from the Report of the Directors for 1853: ' The Directors congratulate their fellow-members on the very grati fying result of the recently-completed Quinquennial Investigation of the assets and liabilities of the Institution, by which it appears that, on the 20th November, 1852, after providing for the present value of all the liabilities in the Life Assurance Department, a . surplus re mained of 242,6271. Os. Od., which has been duly apportioned as heretofore., " The reductions range from 5 to 89 per cent. on the original Annual Premiums, according to the age of the party and the time the Policy has been in force ; and the Bonuses vary in like manner, from 50 to 75 per cent. on the amount of premiums paid during the last five years. " The total amount of the reductions per annum for the ensuing five years is 33,343/. 17s. 2d . " The Bonuses assigned to those policies on which the original pre miums continue to be paid amount to 89,8801. ss. Od. ; this, together with Bonuses apportioned at former divisions, makes an aggregate addition to the sums assured by the Policies in force of 126,5641. " Notwithstanding the great reduction of Premiums, the net annual income arising from 12,326 existing Policies is 163,9121. 7-. ld.; this sum, with the interest on invested capital, viz., 37,2981. 7s. 3d., shows a total annual income of 201,2101. 145. 4d." The amount of Capital exceeds ONE MILLION STERLING. Members, whose premiums fall due on the let July are reminded that they must be paid within 30 days from that date. Prospectuses and all other information may be obtained on appll cation to the Office. June 24, 1854.

LONDON, Doctor of Medicine Matr i cu l a ted Member en the University of Edin burgh, Honorary 'Member of the London Hospital \iQdical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., die, The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con seenences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have proouced 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 P athologiets. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having h azarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are principles . of personal management which cannot be 'violated Without Incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how the.so penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be 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. Theis uthor hat for a series of years been engaged in apnea tensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, wh have unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant empirie.s, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

D ESTRUCTIVE FIRE at HARPENDEN. "Harpenden, June 16, 1854. " Gentlemen,—l have great pleasure iu adding my testimony to the value of your Fireproof Sa'es. " Last Monday night my house, warehouse, and premises were unfortunately burned down; the tire raged very fearfully for about two hours, and, owing to the great scarcity of water, the whole of nay premises and stock were consumed. ."Ihe safe I purchased of you had a most severe test, In conse quence of a barrel of brimstone standing close to it and melting with the heat of the fire, the burning lava running all over and under the sate, which great'y added to the intensity of the heat; it remained in that position about four hours, and when with great difficulty it was got 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 " Wk. WALKER. " Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son, 47a, Moorgate-street, London." " Agricultural Laboratory, Harpenden, July 6, 1554. "Gentlemen,—l was present at the late fire which destroyed the premises of Mr. Walker. Harpenden, and was much surprised at the great amount of heat your sato resisted, and still more surprised (when it was made known to me that a barrel of sulphur stood near it) that it was not entirely 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 sate, 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 uninjured. " I must in justice say that your safes are invaluable, and very necessary for every one who has books and accounts of any value. " I am, Gentlemen, yours very faithfully, " F. W. SIIICOE. " Messrs.

'Two despatches, of which the following are an extract and a copy, have been received by the Duke of Newcastle from General Lord Raglan, G.C.B. : Extract of a Despatch from General Lord Raglan, G.C.8., to the Duke of Newcastle. Varna., Aug. 29, 1854. .The embarkation is proceeding rapidly and successfully, thanks to the slat; arrangements of Rear-Admiral Sir Edmond Lyons,- And. the unceasing exertions of the office. s and men under his orders. It is impossible for me to ex press in adepiate terms my sense of the value of the assis• tance the Army under my command derives from the Royal Navy. The Same faeling prevails froin the highest to the lowest ; .from Vice-Admiral pandas to the youngest .sailor, an ardent desire io co-operate by every possible means is mani rest throughout; and I amproud of being associated with ‘en who are animated by such a spirit, and are so entirely voted to the service of their-oountry. Camp above Old Fort .131 y, Sept. 18, 1854. My Lord Dnke,l do myself - the honour to acquaint wur Grace, that the combined fleets and their convoys peared in the Bay of Eupatoria on the 13th inst., and to to course of the following night proceeded some miles in ai stintiiwCrd; -whim Allied Armies commenced dis 3mbarking early in the ,•moreing of the. 14th,--the French in the Bay below Old Fort, the English in the next Bay nearer to Eupatoria—and before dark the whole of the British Infantry, and some Artillery, and most of the French troops, were on shore. Shortly before dark the weather unfortunately changed, and it became hazardous to attempt to continue landing either troops or guns. The surf on the beach impeded the operation the follow ing morning, and since on more than one occasion ; but thanks to the great exertions of the navy, under the able and active superintendence of Rear-Admiral Sir Edmund Lyons, who was charged with the whole arrangement, every obstacle has been overcome, and I am now enabled to report to your Grace that the disembarkations have been completed. I should not do justice to my own feelings, or to those of the troops I have the honour to command, if I did not prominently bring to the knowledge• of your Grace the deep sense entertained by all of the invaluable services rendered by her Majesty's navy. . The spirit by which both officers and men were ani mated made them regardless of danger, of fatigue, and indeed of every consideration but that of performing an arduous and important duty ; and that duty they dis charged to the admiration of all who had the good fortune to witness their unceasing efforts to land horses and car riages, with the utmost expedition and safety, under fre quently the most trying circumstances.—l have, &c. (Signed) RAGMAN. His Grace the Duke of Newcastle, &c. the French fleet to sail ; Admiral Duudas made the same signal to the English fleet. The two squadrons were taken in tow by the steamers. Your Excellency can scarcely imagine that such a manceuvre, rendered so difficult by the crowding 61250 ships which composed the combined fleets, could be effected without accidents and even serious damage ; and yet, thanks to the skill of the French and English captains, none oc curred. At 7 a.m. the Ville de Paris anchored at the post as signed to it ; the rest• of the squadron followed the ex ample without delay, every frigate showing the greatest alacrity in discharging the part assigned 'to it in the order No. 339 ) which I bad the honour to transmit to your Excellency. I now transmit the journal kept from hour to hour by First Aide•de-camp Lieutenant Gar naud. BY glancing over •it your Excellency will see that the-directions of ,this order, were almost literally carried into execution: Though no enemy was seen on shore, I deemed it ad visable to cause four barges of our three-deckers, armed with guns and congreve rockets, to anchor immediately south of the landing-place. I also ,sent a frigate and two swift steanien to cover the landing of the troops in Case the enenNy should appear. . The moment these arrangements for covering the landing bad been made, g a quarter past 8 I ordered the operation to be begun. All the various descriptions of boats, filled with soldiers, principally of the Ist divi sion, pulled for the shore, where the French flag was already floating, General Canrobert and• Admiral Bonet- Willaumez having planted three lags to mark where-, each division was to land. It is now hale-past eight, and the landing QE the French troops with their field artillery continues uninterruptedly, and with prodigious activity: I transmit to your Excellency a sketch, which may convey some notion of the scene on the beach. It is now 91 a.m., and the disembarkation of the Eng lish troops is in active progress. A cannonade is heard in the direction of the Bartcha, three leagues to the south of where we are. It is a falsa attack made by five French frigates or steam corvettes, having troops of the 4th division on board, and three English frigates. Half-past 12 Noon.—The three divisions and 18 guns are on shore—that is to say, almost the whole of our French troops. Every effort is being made, by my orders, to get ashore a squadron of spahis, the rest of the field of artillery, and the horses of the staff. The marshal, who has - superintended all these movements (:.1 the deck of the Ville de Paris, will then disembark with his staff. It is night, the Fourth Division has arrived from the Kartcha. To-morrow morning it will be set on shore, with the Turkish troops, although the surf which the west wind causes to break on the shore interposes great difficulties. The French and English troops are estab lished in position between Old Fort and the point marked on the map which I transmit to your Excellency. To-day we complete the landing of the horses and stores requisite for the army on its march along shore towards Sebastopol. It will probably start to-morrow, and I will follow with nine ships of the line and as many frigates and steamers. The rest of the squadron returns to Varna to embark 9,000 men and 900 horses. It is probable that the combined army will have its first combat with the enemy at the passage of the Alma, and its first battle at the passage of the Balbek. I will support the operations of the army with the artillery of our vessels. There were no Russian soldiers at Eupatoria, and the town surrendered at discretion. I have stationed the Jena there to make sure of water for the squadron. . MARSHAL ST. AI?NAUD'S DESPATCHES. The French Minister of War has received from the Marshal Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the East the following report on the debarkation of the Allied troops in the Crimea : At the Bivouac, Old Fort, Sept. 16, 1854. Monsieur le Mar4uhal,—l have the honour to . con firm to you my telegraphic despatch, dated this day. Our landing was effected on the 14th, in the most for tunate state, and without a sign of the enemy's presence. The moral impression produced on the troops has been excellent, and it was to the cry of " Vive l'Empereur " that they stepped on land and took possession of their bivouacs. We are encamped on the steppes, where . water and wood are scarce. The necessity of effecting a landing, difficult and complicated beyond all that can be said respecting it, opposed by a sea-breeze that often rendered the beach inaccessible, has detained us until this day in these bad bivouacs. lat first wished to occupy Eupatoria, the roadstead of which, only wide enough for two ships to anchor abreast, is the sole refuge open to us along this difficult coast. But I found the feeling of the inhabitants so accommodating that I felt satisfied with establishing there a naval station and some agents, who are charged with collecting the re sources that may be found there. The Tartars begin to come to the camp; they are very gentle, very inoffensive, and appear to sympathise much witliour enterprise. I hope we shall obtain from them cattle and' vehicles. I carefully cause them to be paid for whatever resources they offer us, and I neglect nothing to render them favourable. This is a very important point. On the whole, our situation is good, and the future presents itself with guarantees of success that in the outset appear very solid. The troops are full of confi dence. The passage, the disembarkation, were assuredly two of the most formidable eventualities presented by an enterprise without precedent, taking into considera tion the distances, the season, the innumerable uncer tainties surrounding it. I consider that the enemy who allows such a storm to gather only a few leagues from him without doing anything to dissipate it at its origin is getting into an awkward situation, the least incon venience of which is to seem to be struck powerless in the eyes of the population. I have'the honour to enclose to you the order of the day I caused to be read to the troops at the moment of disembarkation. Deign to receive, M. to Marechal, the expression of my very respectful sentiments. The Marshal Commander-in• Chief, A. DE ST. ARNAUD. GENERAL ORDER. Sept. 14, during the landing on the coast of tho Crimea. Soldiers,—You have been seeking the enemy five months. Ho is at last before you, and we are going to show him our eagles. Prepare to undergo the fatigues and privations of a campaign that will be difficult but short, and will raise in the face of Europe the reputation of the army of the East to a level with the highest mili tary glories of history. You will not permit the soldiers of the Allied armies, your companions in arms, to surpass you in vigour and firmness before the enemy, in fortitude during the trials that await you. You will remember that we do not wage war against the peaceful inhabitants of the Crimea, whose feelings are disposed in our favour, and who, reassured by our discipline, by the respect we shall show towards their religion, their customs, and persons, will not fail to come to us. Soldiers, at this moment, when you plant your colours on the land of the Crimea, you are the hope of France ; and in a few days you will be its boast. Vive l'Empereur !

His father felt alarmed, having consulted the most eminent surgeons to no pur pose, while his son continued to waste away. At this juncture a friend advised a trial of Holloway's pills and ointment, which was made, and, in six weeks, they per fectly cured him.

Part IL of this • series undertakes to set forward the argumthits maintaining the exist ence of a plurality of worlds. Tile writer, however, / evidently inclines to the opposing doctrine. -In-' deed, he is scarcely just in the method "of his arrangement, as he put forward Dr. Whewell's views without any contradiction, white Sir David Brewster's he continually contrasts with those of his opponent. The article is 'evidently the work, of one who has studied the subject, which is one eminently calculated to attract'. and occupy the highest intellects. At the s.amOitne, the decision Oild . animosity evinced by the'liolders of antago nistic opinions on a point on wjalch, after all, cer tainty is impossible, may vrellinstify the author's quotation from John 'Wesley, Be not so positive, especially with regard to things which are neither easy nor necessary .to be determined." The ;next article.comes like a hint to the disputants that the world we know is more than we can manage. It is entitled "ling. Otho and his Classic Kin_gdom,!,' . , and takes an almost despairing view of the per verse and incapable sovereign, and the vain and degraddd people. It isnnfortunate that the grand old names and meinories that the nation - IAM che rishes should not exercise on them a more elevating influence. The writer coincides in the gene : , ral opinion, by observing that " the political morality of King Otho,.in his foreign as in. his in ternal affairs, deserves the severest condemnation." A. - Paper on " Civilisation and the Census," after propounding the perplexing question of " What is Civilisation," indignantly objects to the right of the dreat Busybody, as it-calls .a census commission, to pry, into private affairs. " A Russian - Remi niscence' is Ilie' . acconfit of an old had been assistant-surgeon in the French army in 1812. .The horrors of that campaign, or rather of the retreat, are here vividly portrayed. It is fol lowed by one of the most interesting articles in the Magazine, which is called, " Records of the Past— Nineveb and Babylon." After some introductory remarks on the vast expanse of ancient history, its scope, its influence, and its fascination, the writer ' goes on to regret that the task has hitherto been so inadequately performed : " Let , then, some Newton or Humboldt of history— some one who grudges not a lifetime of genius to the task, and to whom Providence may give length of days, —let such an one take up the theme of those old nations. By the might of his graphic pen let him evoke them and their crumbled empires from the dust, and place them in their pristine glory before the eye of the reader. Let him paint the people, the land in which they dwelt, the temples in which they worshipped ;—let him glance with graphic touch over the leading points of their history, the master-spirits who influenced, and the poets who adorned it ;—let him depict the arts of life and the arts of beauty which characterised them ; and, hardest task of all, let him dive into the depths of their religion and philosophy —not the fantastic crust of superstition, but the more spiritual dogmas which lie below ; and, wasting but little time upon what was false, set himself to eliminate the true, and place it once more before the world." After a summary of the chief nations of the ancient world he goes on to give us an interesting account of the rival cities of Nineveh and Babylon. Remarking on the difference between the two old empires of Assyria and Egypt, it is observed that their character was symbolised by their different styles of architecture, the Egyptians having built with granite, and the Assyrians with alabaster and painted brick. In both countries granite and other stone existed in the mountains, but the Assyrians, fond of ease and display, preferred the softer and more attainable materials,while the Egyptians, de sirous of solidity and durability, sent several hun dred miles for the more lasting material. The con sequence is, that it is after centuries of oblivion faint traces aro found where once stood the proud Assyrian capital, while the obelisks and sphinxes of the Valley of the Nile remain to commemorate the history of their architects. The number con cludes with an able analysis of " Spanish Politics and Cuban Perils." Colburn's New Monthly.—Tho New Monthly opens with a paper on " The Lifo and Correspon dence of the late Lord Metcalfe." It is followed by No. 24 of "Literary Leaflets," which gives us a criticism of " Firmilian." A notice of the fourth volume of " Dr. Veron's Memoirs," which has re cently been published in Paris, appears under the title of "Louis Philippe andMademoiselleßachel." It gives some lively political anecdotes of the citi zen King, and some interesting _details_ of the life of the great tragedienne. A. description of " Cos tume in the Eighteenth Century" furnishes us with some amusing accounts of the toilettes of celebrities of that day. The continuation of the " Diary of a First Winter at Rome" describes the baths of Titus, and recounts a visit to Cardinal Antonelli. " Mildred Arkell," by the author of " The Unholy Wish," is a story of real life, which possesses much melancholy interest. The chief point in it is an unfortunate mistake, in which the young lady in tended for the bridesmaid believes herself to be the chosen bride. "A Righi Day" is a narrative of a tour in Switzerland. The poetical contributions consist of " A Late Night Scene on the Baltic," by Nicholas Michell, and a rather perplexing ballad from the German by Captain Medwin. There is also a lively tale by Dudley Costello, and articles on the loss of the Tiger and the Greek insurrection. Colburne s United Sery ice. —A paper on "The Seat of War in Asia" commences this number. It gives a summary of the chief geographical features, and is accompanied by a map. A brief account is given of the origin of the dispute between the inhabitants of Greytown and its American assailants. " A Canter through Bulgaria" is the first part of a narrative of an excursion to Schtunla and Silistria. " A Turk's Account of the Downfall of Constanti nople Four Centuries ago" possesses at least, the merit of antiquity. The " Extracts front the Journals of the late Major Ma.cready" are continued. A new series of papers is commenced on the " French Naval Annals." The unfortunate Vil leneuve is selected for OA first memoir, "from a desire to do justice to his character." The num ber contains much information respecting the ex pedition to the Crimea, and other military move merits. The following extract is from an interest ing account of the great seal fishing trade of the Arctic Seas : "Or SEAL FISHING.—It is not nece sary for me to write the history of seal fishing in the Polar seas. Everybody knows that, in the 17th century, and later in the 18th century, regular fleets annually left the ports of Holland, the Hanseatic towns, of England, and the Basque provinces, in pursuit of the whales, the morses, aad the seals, which abounded on the coasts of Spitsbergen and Greenland. These fisheries were so productive, that the parties engaged in them disputed, in desolate regions, the possession of the havens which offered conveniences for an establishment on shore, and international treaties determined the ports belonging to each. It was to these fisheries that Holland owed its power as a maritime state, which rendered her the ma ritime rival of England and France. " HAUNTS OF THE SEAL.—For some time past the seal has abandoned the neighbourhood of Spitzbergen, and is now found in great numbers along the coasts of Greenland, in about 75 deg lat. It is upon the fields of ice united to the mainland, and amongst those which extend to the north and to the east, as well as under the meridian of Iceland, that immense flocks of seals abound, which the sailors pursue as they advance northward. The number of these animals is so considerable, that the little fleet, composed of at least forty vessels, which an ndally leaves the Scotch ports, never returns with less than 100,000 seals, killed in the space of a few weeks There is no reason to suppose that their number is dimo nishing, as all the statistics which I have consulted show that seal fishing is increasing. ARRIVAL AT THE ICE-FIELDS.—The vessels which hay i quitted the fitting-out ports of Scotland, with foul months' provis . 2ons if intended for the seal fisheries, an with eight months provisions for whaling, quit the hai hour of Leewick in the first day Of March, and steer foi Greenland. Arrived at the localities frequented by the seals, a constant look-out is kept from the mast-head by a man placed in the crow's-nest, a sort of sentry-box lashed to the main-top-gallant-mast, which serves to pro tect the watcher from the cold. " When a flock is signalled, the vessel approaches the ice -floe, and it is then when the captain requires all the coolness and dexterity which great experience, and unlimited confidence in himself and ship can alone give. The approach to the ice-field is frequently ren dered a difficult and delicate operation, by masses of floating ice, which the winds and the currents carry violently along ; by fragments of glaciers on a level with the water, and therefore doubly dangerous; by lofty icebergs, which, sometimes losing their centre of gravity through the breaking off of portions, regain their equi librium in the midst of a tremendous fracas. It is in the midst of these perils that the captain must determine at a glance the course he is to steer for the mouth of one of the numerous passages leading to the required haven from whence the fishing is to be carried on. On reach ing smooth water, the vessel is moored to the ice by means of grappling irons—the boats are lowered—the cask and hunting implements embarked—the men are provided with provisions in case of accidents separating them for a time from the ship—signals are established, and lines are so disposed as to conduct the men on board in case a fog sets in. "The fishing then comnmencee. The slaughtered seals are carried to the boats, where the skins are separated from the blubber, the latter being thrust into !much+ ADMIRAL HAMELIN'S DESPATCHES. The following despatches, published in the Mo niteur of Saturday, are important contributions to the history of the Crimean expedition : Ville de Panie, at Sea, 12th Sept. By my despatch of the sth inst., which I sent off after putting to sea, and while waiting for the English squadron, I informed your excellency that I hoped to be joined by Admiral Dundas on that day or the next ; but it was only on the Bth that the English squadron and the two convoys reached the anchorage of the steamers. The French convoy was ready to sail on the sth, but of course I waited for the English to avoid con suming our coal to no purpose. At the time the junc tion was effected the French and Turkish vessels were off the mouth of the Danube. On the Bth, after all the forces had joined, a conference of the Admiraliiind the Generals of the land forces was held on board the Caradoc. The result of this conference was that before definitively fixing the point of debarka tion, a committee, composed of general officers, naval and military, should repair to the coast of the Crimea, between Cape Chersonesus and Eupatoria, to ascertain what preparations for defence had been made by the enemy. In consequence the steam corvette Le Pri mauguet, having on board the General of division, Can robert ; the General on the staff, Martinprey ; the Gene ral of Artillery, Thierry ; the General of engineers Bizot ; the Rear-Admiral Bouet-Willaumez, and Colo nels Trochu and Leboouf, sailed for the Crimea in com pany with the Caradoc, on board of which were the English Generals Lord Raglan, Burgoyne, and Browne, and the Agamemnon, on board of which was Rear-Ad miral Lyons. The Sampson was added to this small squadron, lest the Russians should take it into their head's to impede these officers in their exploring opera- tions. On the morning of the 10th the four ships approached the land off Cape Chersonesus, where they found a numerous camp of Russians. At a short distance from land they ran along the shore from Cape Chersonesus to Cape Loukoul. The aspect of the harbour of Sebas topol, and the position of the Russian ships remained unchanged ; but since the previous reconnaissance new camps, with artillery, had been established on the princi pal positions of the Chersonesean peninsula and the rivers Alma .and Kartcha. The staff officers estimated the troops encamped along this part of the coast at not less than 30,000 men ; the coast was minutely examined at a very short distance. The four vessels continued to run along the coast from the Alma to Eupatoria, and saw, half way between those points, about 45 deg. of latitude, a beach very fa vourable to the landing of troops. Moreover, after having examined the bay of Eupa toria, the officers of the exploring expedition same to the conclusion that it would be advantageous to occupy the town as a point d'appui to the armies and fleet, and that a lazaretto of considerable size, close to to the beach, might serve for shelter to the troops landed. Lord Rag lan, therefore, having called the naval and military officers together, it was resolved with the reserve if it met the approbation of the Marshal and the two admi rals in command, who had remained on board the Ville de Paris: 1. That the disembarkment, instead of being made under the enemy's fire in the bays of Katcha and Alma, should be made on the beach midway between those rivers and Eupatoria. at a place called Old Fort on the map, in latitude 45 degrees. 2. That the same day Eupatoria should be occupied by 2,000 Turks, a French battalion, and an English batta lion, supported by two Turkish and one English vessels ; doubts were entertained whether the place was garri soned. 3. That three or four days after the landing the army should march southward, its right keeping close to the sea, while a squadron of 15 - vessels or steam frigates should follow along the coast, to cover it with their guns, and secure its supplies of provisions. These proposals have been approved by the marshal and admirals.in-chief, and at this moment we are under sail towards the point-selected for landing, from which we are only a few miles distant. There is a considerable village near this point, with numerous flocks and good pastures round it ; and this had considerable weight in determining the selection of the landing-place. The coast between this point and the Alma appears equally abundant in pasturage and flocks. Heaven grant that the wind and sea may continue favourable for maintaining the communication between the fleet and the army. P.S., 13th Sept.—Last night a violent gale came on to blow front N.E., and retarded the progress of some of our transports taken in tow by the frigates and steamers. To-day, at mid-day, as lam closing the letter, I am anchoring in the bay of Eupatoria, and sending steamers in every direction to bring up the lag gards. The English fleet is only a few miles distant from the bay, and will cast anchor this evening. Ville de Paris, off the Crimea, Sept. 16. I expected to sail from the Bay of Eupatoria on the night of the 13th, with the fleets, in order to anchor at Old Fort, on the west coast of the Crimea, seven leagues north of Sebastopol. The fine weather which on the night between the 13th and 14th succeeded the gale which we experienced on the night between the 12th and J 3th, admitted t o w f ou o a r ,m a . cc l om s p ig li n s a h l i i n e g d this moTelneut. ~~'": . 6. • , 86 44 er,-.4CV , f; a l 4 . -1. , •••,. /10 ,1, q ,„,„„„ • k r , • , • , -• \h''!!'.4o44f° 1 " 4 -' " 6 V.. • • ~• • • - r OYA 404 v - • • . •je , • wow , AIL • —it- -4 • y ✓ l „-• /6. ab - v • ~' --t 7 Jr. • 1 •_ 1• r • • -/ r C % rC ppyar ~ • f , throttgh Minglioles enlarged , for the purpose.

"A Dream of a Re venge" is a most awful narrative. It consists of the plan of a young lady to revenge herself for some slights that she had received. It ended in her poison iug hefself, and some time afterwards her revenge succeeded, for Henry Mowbray followed her exam ple. "The Robber's Wife" is continued. It becomes more complicated. Leopold Kliebes resolves to fly away and begin a new life in a foreign land, but the plan is frustrated, and he is left a prisoner. " Au Unfortunate Day" is an amusing sketch of the series of accidents and varied annoyances that befel an individual in the course of one day. His child swallowed a ten-pound- note at breakfast ; his purse was taken in the railway, &c. " The Last of the House" is continued, and is very melancholy. A robbery is committed, and Merton takes leave of the Wallfords for over. Poetry in _ umpe which is associated with them. The age of chivalry is past ; the courteous reverence of it still exists. What a Title of Honour is a name enrolled in the Ballad of Chevy Chase !" " Fifty Years in both Hemispheres" contains a summary of the adventures of Vincent Nolte. They are anything but enviable, these fifty yea rs in both hemispheres. As the writer observes in this article, " they were spent in fierce struggles to achieve fortune, and the end is worse than the be ginning thus far." "Northamptonshire Words and Phrases" is interesting. It is said that there are thirteen thousand words in common use in England which do not appear in any dictionary. It is curious to observe how a short distance can change the mode of expression. In one parish the speech is quite strange to those residing in the next. A labourer went some miles to see his rela tions, and said he could not understand them. A description is given of Neville's Cross, Durham, to which a plate is affixed. It was built to comme morate a victory obtained over David of Scotland. " Reminiscences of Cambridge," from the year 1780, furnishes details of the customs carried on, at the university at that period, which are interest ing enough to merit attention. They are quaintly described, and may please those who compare the past with the present. GRAND REVIEW NEAR BOULOGNE. REJOICINGS AT THE CAPTURE OF SEBASTOPOL. Dublin University.—One of the most entertain ,ng articles in this periodical is entitled " Biogra )hical Sketches and Notices." In it are given DOULOGNE-SUR-MER, SUNDAY. brief but effective delineations of many celebrated and interesting personages. Marshal Turenne the first sk e t c h. It i s sa id that he wasin tended for the Church, his parents asserting that he was too delicate to be allowed to follow his own will and enter the army. In order to prove the falsity of this declaration, Turenne stole away one night, " and was found the next morning asleep upon a cannon on the ramparts of Sedan." After this exploit he was allowed to follow his own course. It is observed that a great proof of his merit was given after his death, when the great Condo exclaimed, when ho was puzzled by some dilemma previous to a battle—" What would I now give for a quarter of an hour's conversation ' with the ghost of Turenne." Inez do Castro is another name that appears. It is mentioned that the sad fate of this princess has been the subject of five tragedies, two in English, one in French, one in- Spanish, and one in Portuguese. Tho awful scene, unparalleled in history; id described' when Don Pedro showed his sense of the wrongs done to his beautiful young wife by having her body taken from the grave, to receive in death the crown and sceptre which had been denied her in life. " Lope de Vega" was a celebrated Spanish poet—be was of the class that writes more than can be read in a life-time. It is said more than " twenty-ono million and three hundred thousand of his lines have actually been printed." Made ', moiselle de Maupin was a very remarkable charac ter, more to be wondered at than admired. Her exploits are amusingly related. The two Michael Angelos are the last personages recorded here. It is observed tbat they are often confounded with each other, although the first died before the second was born. " Mosses upon Grave-st Ones" is con tinued, and increases in mystery as it proceeds. The private life of Lord and Lady Roseville is de scribed to Morton by a discarded valet of the earl. This recital discloses some of the horrors perpe trated by Lord C—, of whom Morton was in chase, and of whose life and actions he desired ear nestly to be informed. " The Three Mr. Smiths : a Scene in the Far West," is a very lively little account of the mistakes and misunderstandings that arose from the plurality of names commencing with S. " Gleanings in Corn Fields" contains some pleasing verses among the prose remarks. One of the best is thus entitled, " Epicedium," on one interred in a military cemetery : Yesterday there tens the grandest review at Honvanit of the troops that has as yet taken place. At least . 50,000 men were under arms. The Emperor rode upon his favourite chesnut horse, which was purchased for him in England, and which is celebrated for its peculiar grace and beauty. His Majesty appeared on the ground at about 1 o'clock, surrounded by a brilliant staff of officers, and followed by the Cent Gardes. The Empress soon afterwards arrived in a carriage and four. She was dressed in riding costume, and in her hat she wore a white feather. She immediately alighted from her carriage, and conversed for a considerable time with La Duchesse D'Essling, and some of the distinguished officers that formed her suite. Her horse, a beautiful grey, which was in waiting, was richly caparisoned, the saddle cloth was deep scarlet, with a profusion of gold em broidery. The Emperor, on being apprised of her • arrival, galloped across the field to where she stood, when, having been assisted by her attendants, she - monnted her horse and rude beside his Majesty through out his inspection of the troops. The sceffe - Vims . l4inid:' and imposing in the extreme, and tho country around , being of a hilly and undulating cilaractor added greatly to the beauty of the spectacle. While the Emperor was thus engaged, a despatch was received by him, which, after perusing, he handed to some of his generals that accompanied him. Ile then turned towards the troops, and in a loud voice said, " Sebaeopol cet prise." This important intelligence was received with tumul tuous cheers by the soldiers, as well as the spectators within bearing ; and continuous cries of " Vivent l'En&- percur et l'lnzperatrice" greeted the royal party through out their entire progress. The review did not terminate until about four o'clock, soon after which the Emperor and Empress returned to town. About six o'clock their Imperial Majesties paid a visit to the cathedral. " I heard tho blithe strain that I knew Once sounded so sweetly to thee, When the future seemed bright to thy view, And the present WAS joyous and free. I heard them, and thought of the days When I saw thee in beauty's young bloom ; Alas ! thou art lost to my gaze, Thy relics are cold in the tomb, But fair is the scene of thy rest — There laurels with cypresses wave ; For Honour those precincts hath blest, Where thou sleeps't in the midst of the brave. There many a trophy gleams bright O'er warriors that peacefully lie ; Still comrades in death they unite, And none but the valiant are nigh. And oft-times sweet Echo is there, She comes to waft music around— The drum's distant boom on the air, The bugle's afar-swelling sound. They blend with the voice of the sea That sighs round the isle's sandy verge, With the low murm'ring Breese—and for thee They breathe as in chorus a dirge. Pure spirit ! though few were thy years, Mature were thy mind and thy worth ; And bedew'd with the tenderest tears Thy form was consigned to the earth. But sweet is thy mem'ry ;—we know For thee it was blessed to die ; Thy dust is with heroes below, Thy soul amid angels on high." The news of the capture of Sebastopol having been officially announced, the town of Boulogne was brilliantly illuminated throughout the night. The Emperor and Empress having attended divine service at the chapel at Capecure, left Boulogne for Paris by railway at 12 o'clock. The following has since been published : THE EMPEROR OF THE FRENCH TO THE SOLDIERS OF THII CAMP OF THE NORTH. Soldiers,—l part from you, but will return soot► to judge for myself of your perseverance. You know that the camp of the north was called into existence for the purpose of bringing our troops nearer to the coast, in order that they might more speedily be combined with those of England, whence it was necessary for them to depart for any place where the honour of the two nations required their presence. The camp was created to bliew Europe that without denuding any point of the interior we could easily assemble nearly 100,000 men between Cherbourg and St. Omer. It has been created to accustom you to military exercises, to marches, to fatigues ; and believe rue that nothing is so useful for the soldier as this living in common in the open air, which teaches him to appreciate and withstand the inclemency of the weather. Doubtless it will be a hardship to continue in the camp throughout the winter ; but I count upon the efforts of every one of you to make it profitable to all. Besides your country demands your active services ; some pro tect Greece from the direful influence of Russia ; some maintain the independence of the Holy Father at Rome; others confirm and extend our dominion in Africa ; others again are perhaps at this moment planting our eagles on the walls of Sebastopol. Well 1 You who are stimu lated by such noble examples—you, of whom one divi sion has distinguished itself at the taking of Bomar sund—you will be the more able to contribute your part to the common work, the more you are hardened to the toils of war. The classic soil you tread has already formed heroes ; that column, raised by your fathers, recals great memories ; and the statue which surmounts it appears by a providential chance to point out the road you are to follow. Behold this statue of the Em peror : it stands on the West, and menaces the E as t . There, in fact, is the danger which threatens modern civilisation ; here the rampart to protect it. Soldiers, you will be worthy of your noble mission. NAPOLEON. Boulogne, Sept. 30, 1854. Bentley's Miscellany.—The first article is on the Boulogne fetes and the French Emperor. It contains nothing very new, but takes a quiet and impartial view of the aspect of affairs. A paper entitled " Sevastopol" gives long extracts from Mr. Scott's travels in the Baltic and Black Sea. " Aspen Court" is continued in two chapters, the last of a painful interest. It narrates how all the considerate plans for breaking gently to the afilicted mother the dangerous illness of her child are defeated by . her tyrannical and unfeeling hus band. At the same time, it is scarcely likely, and , certainly not very prudent, for two gentlemen to stand talking secrets on one side of a large cur tain. The narrative of " Arthur Arden, the Medical Student," relates a startling catastrophefa in the suicide of the disappointed candidate torres medical diploma. The " History of the Thea trey of London" gives an account of her Maj.est.y_a save the waansdvalued Theatre and of Covent Garden. The l h at e t n er tl b v ull t d ing was destroyed by fire inlBoB, ttem vi t to eny persons lost their lives in the a which other property. The organ of w ll as an d d o e s l at 1,0001., and which had been presented as a ' troy l e c d h , legacy to the theatre, _ losses were great. When the present house, which cost 150,0001., was opened, the most memorable riot connected with dramatic history took place. The prices bad been raised, and the audience would not suffer a word to be heard, but the cry of " old prices" resounded through the house. Subse quently banners were exhibited in the pit, and the audience directed their satire against Mr. John Kemble,who was continually addressing them. These scenes continuedfor 66nights. A 1 t engththedemands were acceded tn, and a treaty of peace agreed to at a public dinner by a committee of the pub lic and the mal l , a,erz of the theatre. 0 Recollec. improvements Camp, itclee.c in ou t rs he e, m o o p st era po , wauerd rADVERTISEMENT.}—ifer Alajesty's Royal Letters Patent for p fu e l rs a p n it b iV a ll G a l l a i s t se T s e ( l l;l s az " e P d c w s' ith IYlunic German Glass), to know navy, and others.
