Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &e. The essential 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 hood, 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. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, and has long directed attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is fr ee. Their treatment has unfortunatel y teen too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant cm pirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, inflict great iujury on those who are induced to place faith in their preten sions. The serious consequences resulting from such mal-practice may easily be avoided, it sufferers from these maladies were to ascot Lift if their medical adviser be a member of the London College of Physicians, urgeons, or Apothecaries' Hall, as any one possessing either of these qualifications usually appends it to his name, and thus the legally qualified practitioner can at once be distinguished.

Owing to the system pursued, which gives great encouragement to good conduct, while, at the same time, a strong coercive power is vested in the magis tracy by summary jurisdiction, disorder is rendered rare, and, although 2,000 ticket-of-leave men are scattered throughout the inhabited districts among a free popula tion whose numbers do not reach 9,000, the criminal cases for the whole year 1852 were not merely reduced to a point to compare most favourably with the social e s l t u a t d e of i ng other a sng. single o a l e c t ni o e f s b violence , uw t e o r n e t r h e e m p a e r r k s a o b o l from . e This not in condi tion of affairs, it is observed, " is now fully admitted by eventlie niost of tim co i n d v o ie f ts t , ho w se ho ori c g a i n nal s l opposed realise e t dto the o introduction themselves the gratifyi ng f ac t o f th e security felt by all as to the safety of life and property in every part of this widely-extended possession." Meanwhile, the growth of trade and industry has been very satisfac tory. The revenue for 1852 was 37,0211., showing lhie an increase of 11,8541. on the preceding the expenditure was 34,7771. ; the year, port whiles the were 97,3 031 . , showing an increase of 40 ,7 051 . ; and inthe entries of shipping there was likewise a large augmen tation. The land sales also continued rapidly to increase, an d the prosperity of the settlement seems to have been greatly stimulated by the facilities given to men of the yeoman class to purchase small blocks, even to the extent of 10 acres. The exports of 1852 showed a slight decrease, apparently attributable to merely temporary causes, such as a falling off in the whale fishery, an d a delay in shipping the last clip of wool. The export of sandalwood had at the same time entirely ceased. The total of live stock had considerably increased, but the want of fre:di pastures threatened to prevent any further great extension, and the exploration of the country be tween the Murchison and Shark's Bay. and thence to the mouth of the Gascoigne, had not resulted in the hoped-for discovery of good land. An expedition to the southward, through the hitherto unknown district of Lanark, had also failed in discovering anything of im portance, save a small tract of desirable soil, intersected by almost impassable scrub, some distance inland from the coast. With regard to the mineral resources of the colony, of which considerable expectations have been entertained for the last year or two since the discovery of the Geraldine Mine, it is stated that there is at last a hope of a regular exportation of lead and copper to the eastern seas, a vessel being already engaged at Port Gregory (about 40 miles from the Geraldine Mine) to take a freight of lead to Singapore.

Teach Russians gr,od manners—protect Turkey—reform the representation—extend the franchise—appeal to public op'nion and plain facts, stating the elevating influence and sure protection afforded to all classos by the attire manufactured by E. 310 , ES and SON—the benefits derived from purchasing at their establishments, the best means of retrenchment and economy which the wisdom of the Senate could recommend.

As E. MOSES and Son have al ways the earliest samples of new productions in every material and every style of dress for the coming seasons, this spring it is certain they will excel the magnificence of the last, from a surprising degree f success which has attended their enterprising efforts. To manage the colonies and to make them profitahle has perplexed the talent of this honourable house. The satisfaction in Australia and all other parts of the world with the business of E. MOSES and Sorg is highly encouraging, and their clothing, boots, and shoes, hosiery, &c., is producing a greater amount of profits to merchants and ship pers than any kind of merchandise whatever. Emigrants, ladies, gentlemen, and families are o utfitted in the most economical manner, and full lists of outfits, with ship-sailing infor mation, may be had on application, or post free. CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard 'the public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like Falsehood of "Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have No CONNEXION WITH ANT OTHER HOUSE IN OR OUT OF LONDON, except their own Establishments, as follows : London City Establishment, 154, 155. 156, and 157, Minories, 83, 44,85, and 86, Aidgate, opposite the Church, all communicating.

We must emphatically warn the Conservative party in the House of Commons against the danger of trusting to the abandonment of the Reform Bill by the Ministry. That bill, if passed, is the destruction of the monarchy and the constitu tion. We have already declared our conviction that the spirit of faction which was unprincipled enough to propose may be unprincipled enough to persevere in it—and it is the solemn duty of every friend to the monarchy of England to prepare for an active and energetic resistance to its provisions. With this persuasion we purpose, day by day, to examine in detail the changes which it will effect in our electoral sys tem. We earnestly invite the attention of every true English man to the nature of these changes, in the belief that they need but to be understood to be indignantly rejected by the good sense, the intelligence, and the loyalty of the nation. We begin with that provision to which we have already ad verted, the proposal to increase the county representation, coupled with the provision for representing the minority. It is of the utmost importance that the bearing of this should be distinctly understood, and we must endeavour, even at, the hazard of tediousness, to make it plain. Lord John Russell proposes that whenever a constituency returns three members then each elector should only vote for two. It is not necessary to occupy time in proving that the effect of this in every such constituency would enable the po litical party who are in the minority to return one of the three members. It is a great mistake, we must observe, to regard this as a mere incident of Lord John Russell's plan. It is, on the contrary, the keystone of the entire. Without increasing the county representation we do not believe Lord John Rus sell would venture to propose the democratic provisions which are contained in his measure. But to increase the county re presentation simply would be to give additional power to the landed gentry, and range on one side the Conservative repre sentatives of the counties, and on the other the revolutionary delegates of the populace of great towns. The representa tion of the minority is a device to interpose the party of the Whig aristocracy—the party who in almost every county would return the third member. To this rule there may be of course exceptions, but, as a general rule, we may safely assert, that in the great majority of instances the third county member would be returned by the influence of the small section of the gentry who entertain Whig principles, or rather the prejudices of Whig party. To provide for this party, now almost politically ex tinct, a sure "refuge for the destitute" in the minority repre sentation of counties, is, we cannot help thinking, one of the essential portions of the measure. We do not think that the object will be attained. We believe that under the system established by the bill, both the Whig and the Conservative will, in the effect of the whole scheme, be utterly overpowered; but it is not the less essential to expose the partisan character of the provisions of the bill. There are now seven counties in England returning three members each. They are— Berkshire Bucks Cambridge Dorset Of these seven counties, only one (Bucks) returned to the present Parliament a member opposed to the Government of Lord Derby. So far as the other six counties are concerned, the effect of Lord John Russell's bill will be to take from the Conservatives six seats and transfer them to the Whigs. The representation of Bucks will continue as it is—two Conserva tives representing the majority, and one Whig the minority. But in each of the other six counties a seat will be taken from the Conservative majority and given to the Whig minority. But the bill proposes to add to the county constituencies, which it does not alter in regard to boundaries, 37. Lancashire and the west riding of Yorkshire are to be newly divided. But at present we confine our attention to the effect of the representative clause as applied to existing constituencies. Thirty-seven of the county constituencies are to return three members instead of two, and in each of these constituencies of course the minority will return the newly-added member. Now of these 37 constituencies, 24 are at present repre sented by two Conservative members each, 8 divide their representation, and 5 are represented by supporters of the Coalition. That there may be no room for mistake, we give the results in a tabular form. Hereford Hertford Oxford Constituencies to have a third member which now return two Conservatives : Cheshire, North Norfolk, East Cheshire, South Norfolk, West Derbyshire, South Staffordshire, North Devonshire, North Somersetshirc, West Devonshire, South Sommetshire, East Essex, North Shropshire, North Essex, South Suffolk, East Kent, West Suffolk, West Kent, East Sussex, East Lincoln, East Warwick, North Lincoln, West Yorkshire, East Riding Monmouthshire Yorkshire, North Riding In each of these 24 constituencies the Conservatives now return both members. In each of these Lord John Russell proposes to add a third member, to be returned by the mino rity, that is, in other words, to add 24 Whig members for these places. On the other hand, he proposes to give a member to the Conservative minority in the following five constituencies, which now return two supporters of the Coalition Cabinet : West Cornwall North Derbyshire Middlesex South Staffordshire East Surrey. The eight constituencies which now neutralise their repre sentation we may leave out of the calculation, as the pre sent state of their representation supplies us with no test of the party which form the majority or minority in these. But it appears that, so far as we have the means of calcu lation, the effect of giving a representative to the minority will stand thus— To take from the Conservatives six seats now possessed by them, and transfer them to their opponents, being a clear gain equivalent to 12. And to add to the Whig party in the counties 24 seats, by giving a third member to 24 counties iu which that party have now no share in the representation. On the other hand, it will give to the Conservatives five seats in counties, where they, in their turn, are wholly unre presented ; thus making the gain to the Whig interest in the county representation 25 votes ; but adding to this the six Conservatives displaced, making a change equivalent to 31 votes on a division. Against this, no doubt, we must set the result of the appli cation of the same principle to the town constituencies ; but while it will be applied to no less than 49 county constituen cies, it is proposed to apply it to only eight towns. These towns are— Birmingham Bristol Bradford Leeds Liverpool Manchester Sheffield Wolverhampton In one of these (Liverpool) the third member would be a Coalitionist. In the remaining seven a Conservative. From the 31 votes gained by the Coalitionists in the counties we must, therefore, deduct six gained by the Conservatives in the towns. Still the effect of the dexterous application of the principle of minority representation is to make that applica tion tell against the Conservatives by a strength equivalent to 25 votes on a division. When we remember the majority by which great questions have latterly been decided, we may appreciate the import ance of this manoeuvre, by which, under the pretence of re presenting the minority, it is in reality attempted very seri ously to affect the distribution of political power. THE REFORM BILL. A meeting of Messrs. Gibson and Bright's election committee was held at the League-rooms, Newsll's buildings, Manchester, on Monday evening, preparatory to holding a larger and more public meeting, for the pur pose of considering the provisions of the new Reform Bill. Mr. G. Wilson was in the chair. The principal speaker was Mr. Bright, M.P., who discussed the pro visions of the bill at great length. • He complained that, whereas a 101. householder need only have been in possession for a year, the term was three years in the case of a 61. householder ; that a man, drawing 31. out of his 50/. deposit in a savings-bank to apprentice his child, for instance, was to lose his right to vote ; that it would rest with employers whether their men, receiving 21. a-week, should have votes, because it would be for them to choose whether they would make advances for current necessities, and pay the balance quarterly ; and that the different franchises were too complex, and no one would know to whom he ought to object. He observed that some of the disfran chised boroughs are perfectly pure, and some perfectly free ' • and you might give members to large bodies under such circumstances that a very few sitting at a private dinner-table shall decide who are to be members. The bill, he insisted, shows an innate hostility to popular re presentation, and a distrust of the people. Seats are to be given to the inns of court, he said, not because lawyers are wanted, but to prevent more seats being bestowed on the large towns. The announcement that there were not to be more members for the metropolitan boroughs was cheered by the Opposition. Though counties with a few more than 100,000 people were to have an additional member, Lancashire was not to have an in crease proportioned to its vast numbers. A man accepting office ought to go before his constituents ; a minister ought to have their confidence as well as the confidence of the Crown. The object of the mino rity-representation clause, lie said, was to give the Whigs some of the 46 new county seats ; but Whig county members were of a class that only put a drag on a Liberal Government, as much so as if they were Tories. Why, again, were eight or nine great towns to send a member to Parliament to vote in opposition to their opinions' It was most ungrateful to those eight or nine towns, which had been mainly instrumental in doing everything on which Lord J. Russell now men t defendedthe elvoeurle( ga el p rt a e b s a s ,ui i yt n g aso o i of narrow h .erl e ol Reform wremp arie eser in ß ttye i . lf dl But l iva B tt 3 at 2 l is IMino ritiesa clause Govern- s was the pivot of the bill, and without it the bill would insure a Tory majority. The clause, however, was objected to by the Liberal members. The truth was, that the distribution of members was so arranged in the bill as to give power to the territorial interest. The bill would not give a representation in accordance with the opinions of the great bulk of the people ; and he had no wish to see the measure pass into a law. Other gentle men followed Mr. bright, complaining of various parts of the bill ; and it was arranged to have a general meet ing of the committee, which consists of 1,600 or 1,800 persona, to opnoider the steps to be taken. ~,.~,.j . ,.-~. ~. ~ -~-l~t-~~ G ~-~' 7 7- [pßicE SD. PREPARATIONS FOR WAR• PORTSMOUTH, MARCH 1. The Simoom, screw troop-frigate, Captain Smith, steamed out of harbour this day about noon, with the Ist Battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards on board for Malta. Thousands of the inhabitants crowded the walls of the garrison and the Victoria and Albert Piers to give a parting cheer to the gallant Fusiliers as they emerged from the mouth of the harbour. ARRIVAL OF REAR-ADMIRAL CORR,Y. The Odin, 16, steam-frigate, Captain Scott, arrived at Spithead this morning between seven and eight o'clock from Dover, whether she had been ordered by Rear-Ad miral Corry to precede him on parting company with him on the 23d ult., in lat. 44 N., long. 13 W., at noon. She saluted the flag of the Commander-in-Chief of the port, and then Captain Scbtt came in to deliver the list of defects of the squadron which he had been furnished with prior to leaving. The squadron hove in sight at noon to-day round Bembridge-ledge, and stood up for Spithead, where they anchored at half-past one. The Prince Regent was towed by the Imperieuse. The squadron was ordered, by signal, not to moor. The Admiral was making direct to the Downs when he was signalled last night, about seven o'clock, by the steamer sent in search of him, who bore down and gave the Ad. miral the new orders to make all speed for this port, where we now have anchored— Guns.

On Tuesday, 21st, the squadron hove to, laid out targets, and exercised firing shot and shell. Wed nesday, 22d, wind north, 3 to 4, exercised firing at tar gets with musketry. Thursday, 23d, wind N.E. and by E., to 4. Friday, 24th, wind eastwardly and light, barometer 30.70 ; every appearance of a continuation of light winds and calms ; exercised general quarters, after which the Admiral gave orders for the Valorous, the Duke of Wellington, the Arrogant, and the Tribune to get up steam and prepare to tow, at 5 p.m. of that day. The Prince Regent was taken in tow by the Valorous, the St. Jean d'Acre by the Tribune, and the Amphion by the Arrogant. Saturday, 25th, calm, with a high broadside swell ; the Tribune and the St. Jean d'Acre nine miles astern ; squadron at slow speed to allow them to come up, and as the Tribune could not tow the St. Jean d'Acre more than from four to six knots, the Im perieuse was ordered to take her place, which was done at 3.15 p.m., and, in getting into station (astern of the Duke of Wellington) now towing the Tribune, towed the St. Jean d'Acre at the rate of 71 miles per hour. Monday, 27th, the wind springing up from the north ward, at 7 a.m. the steamers all cast off, and made sail, after having towed their respective ships about 225 miles. At sunset off the Lizard, the Duke of Wellington parted company for Plymouth ; the rest of the ships steered on to the eastward ; passing the Start at about 15 miles and Bill of Portland about 18 miles, wind fell light. At 8 p.m. the Admiral communicated with a steamer. During the night, calm ; squadron five leagues to the south-east of St. Catherine's. March I.—The Imperieuse, the Arrogant, and the St. Jean d'Acre got up steam, the Imperieuse taking the Prince Regent in tow, the St. Jean d'Acre the Tribune, and the Valorous the Am phion ; the Arrogant by herself. The Tribune and the Imperieuse showed their superi ority over all the others in point of sailing, but the Duke of Wellington and the St. Jean d'Acre are splendid ships. The victualling of the fleet has 'commenced, and Spit head and the harbour channel are studded with lighters, powder hoys, water vessels, steam tenders, boats, wherries, and all kinds of craft. All leave has been prohi bited to the crews of the fleet at Spithead. and the work of storing and equipping for war i, going on iu every di rection. The whole of the ships at the anchorage, before the arrival of Rear-Admiral Corry's squadron, were practised daily in great gunnery by Rear-Admiral Signal havin g been made by order of the Commander in -Chief, Sir Charles Napier, to follow the movements of the Edinburgh, Rear-Admiral Chads consequently ordered every commanding-officer to cause the first and second captains of guns to fire four rounds each at a target moored at 800 yards, and to report to him the time in which it was done by each ship. This has displayed some splendid practice in gunnery. The Dragon was particularly skilful with her 84-pounders, having struck the bull's-eye twice, and struck the target several times, her last shot knocking it away. The practice, generally, was admirable. As the first impor tant preliminary to a state of actual war, the Admi ralty have issued new code signal-books to the fleet, which come into use this day. In a few more days double the number of ships now here will be at Spit head, presenting the grandest fleet in power and charac ter ever assembled at this or any other port. WOOLWICH, MARCH 1. ROYAL ARTILLERY. Captain Romer's company, 7th battalion, recently re turned from foreign service at the Cape of Good Hope, left the garrison yesterday morning, at an early hour, and proceeded from the Arsenal station of the North Kent Railway to Strood, and thence took passage in one of the steamers for Sheerness, to relieve Captain Adye's company, 9th battalion ; and the latter passed the dock yard station of the North Kent Railway at 10 minutes before 12, noon, in a special train, from Strood to Lon don, en route to Eastbourne, to relieve Captain J. Tur ner's company, under orders to return to head-quarters, to form part of the second division of artillery, under orders for service in the East. Captain Turner's com pany joined head-quarters at 2 p.m. same day, Captain George B. Shakespeare's company, 3d batta lion, left the garrison at 7 o'clock a.m. to-day to relieve Captain Adair's company, sth battalion. at Manchester and Leeds ; and the latter proceeded to-day to Ports mouth to relieve Major C. C. Young's company, 12th battalion, under orders to return to head-quarters at Woolwich, and they will arrive in garrison this evening. The Master-General has sanctioned an exchange of companies between Captain Harrison, of the 11th batta lion, and Captain Barker, of the 6th battalion, Royal Artillery. Lieut.-Colonel E. C. Warde has taken the command of the 4th battalion ; Lieut.-Colonel Flude of the Bth battalion ; and Lieut.-Colonel Shone of the 13th batta lion, consequent on the recent promotions, dated Feb. 21. GENERAL ORDER. Deputy Adjutant General's-office, Woolwich, Feb. 22. . . The Master-General has appointed the following offi cers to be adjutants provisionally, under the regulations contained in the General Order of the sth of February, 1826 : Second Captain C. S.

Gregory to the Royal Horse Artillery, vice Anderson, promoted. Second Captain Carthew is th?refoFe posted to Captain Campbell's company, sth battalion, in the room of Se cond Captain Gregory. SOUTHAMPTON, MARCH 1 Nothing in connection with the embarkation of troops has occurred at this port since our last report. A rumour was prevalent in the town and neighbourhood o f the docks yesterday that the General Screw Steam-Ship ping Company's steam-ship Queen of the South had been taken up by the Government for the conveyance of troops to the East. Although it is very probable that such a circumstance will eventually take place, yet upon application at proper quarters for a confirmation of the report, we find that up to the present time no know ledge of the statement has reached Southampton in an official form. It is only, therefore, to be presumed for the present, that she will leave, as previously stated, on the 14th of March, with the usual mails for India, the Cape, and Mauritius. The Australasian and Pacific Royal Mail Company's screw steam-ships Emu and Kangaroo have been char tered by the Government for a period of time, not less than six months, during whch they will be engaged in any necessary way the Government may think proper. The Royal Mail Company's steam-ship Magdalena, which is expected to arrive from the West Indies, with the usual monthly M e xican and West Indian mails, on Saturday next, has been taken up for Government pur poses. Arrangements will be made by the company to which she belongs to place her under proper renovation immediately upon her arriYal s so that ilo Woonyenienco -% 7 4/> t_2~ -! li may be felt should it be deemed necessary to send her - to sea at an early period. _ . We unders&zid that a merchant of some extent in this town has gained the contract to supply the horses which have embarked for Constantinople with hay. The food will depart at stated periods, in ships leaving for that port ; and there is no doubt that ships will be chartered for its conveyance, as a large quantity will necessarily be required. CHATHAM, MARCH 1. Last night a telegraphic despatch from the Horse Guards arrived at the head-quarters of the 38th Regi ment, stationed at Brompton Barracks, next Chatham, ordering the regiment to hold itself in readiness to march at a moment's notice for embarkation for the expedi tionary force to Turkey. This corps is to have an addi tion of officers —namely, 1 major, 1 captain, 1 lieutenant, and 1 ensign ; and to complete its strength to I,ooo,they want 150 men. Colonel Sir John Campbell is expected this day, although his leave of absence does not expire until the 10th inst. The Royal Sappers and Miners had a field-day this morning on Chathain Lines, and the firing was admirable. The do) al Horse Artillery also had a field-day on Chatham Lines. WINDSOR, MARCH 1. Considerable surprise was created here last night by the reception of orders from the Horse Guards for the 97th Regiment offoot to hold themselves in readiness to proceed to the seat of war in the East. The regiment marched into the town only last Friday, and it was fully anticipated that they would be in garrison for six. months. The regiment is commanded by Colonel Lock yer, who has seen much service, and had the command of one of the infantry brigades at Chobbam last year. The 97th returned from foreign service about 12 months since, having been quartered for a length of time at Halifax, Nova Scotia. DUBLIN, MARCU 1. The 33d (or Duke of Wellington's) Regiment will leave the Royal Barracks at half-past 9 o'clock this morning, and proceed along the North quays, Parlia ment-street, Dame-street, Nassau-street, to Westland row, en route to Kingstown, for embarkation in the Emeu, to take part in the impending Eastern war. Lieutenant-Colonel Blake and all the officers were most sumptuously entertained last evening at Mor risson's Hotel, by Lieutenant-General O'Doyly, co lonel of the regiment. Saunders of this morning Bays—" The 63d Regiment, in this garrison, being the first corps in the army to complete its esta blishment to the war strength by the success of its recruiting, and not having received orders to form part of the first division of the expeditionary force, was called upon to contribute 20 volunteers to the 50th Regiment for immediate. active.service. The men to be received as volunteers were required to be above 18 years of age, unmarried, and not non-commissioned officers. When the request of the Commander of the Forces respecting the volunteers was made known to the regiment every man in the corps coming within the required conditions immediately stepped forward. 20 gallant fellows were selected, and the commanding-officer having acquainted them with his high sense of their noble conduct, they were marched off to the quarters of their new corps. Since the order for augmenting the regi ment to 1,000 rank and file was received, 191 recruits have been approved at the head-quarters, only 18 of whom were sent in by the parties detached on the recruiting service, the remaining 173 having been enlisted exclu sively at the head-quarters of the regiment in the Linen hall Barracks, Dublin." DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY EVENING. The 33d (Wellington's) Regiment embarked this fore noon on board the Emeu, at Kingstown, for service in. the East. The day was brilliantly fine, and the enthu siasm ani excitement of soldiers and people defied all description. On the march through the streets the bands of the regiments which accompanied the 33d played and sang alternately the popular song of " Auld lang syne," which the vast crowd of civilians seconded with deafening cheers. The Etneu will not sail until to-morrow morning. ,~ G NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. The Surveyor of the Navy, Capt. Sir Baldwin Walker, K.C.8., returned to the Admiralty from Paris yesterday morning. His reception by the French, we hear, was gratifying in the extreme. Twenty thousand tons of coal are ordered by the Ad miralty to be got ready for the supply of the Baltic fleet. In the list of appointments last night we find that of Lieut. S. G. Cresswell, to the Archer, 14, screw, Wool wich. We therefore presume that Mr. Cresswell has declined the appointment of lieutenant commander under Captain Inglefield, and the whole naval service will ap plaud Lieut. Cresswell for his ipirit. As an officer and a gentleman it would be most distasteful for Lieut. Cresswell to serve as a lieutenant under the officer who was promoted for bringing home those despatches of which he (Lieut. Cresswell) was the bearer ; he (Lieut. C.) having been the officer who actually made the north west passage under Captain M'Clure. The whole affair is most discreditable to the Admiralty ; and although a lieutenant, Air. Cresswell stands higher in the estimation of the service and the public than either the Board of Admiralty who have neglected him, or the officer who has come between him and his just reward for unprece dented services.—Morning Herald. PLYMOUTH, MAECII 1. Her Majesty's screw steam-ship Duke of Wellington, 131, Commodore Heury B. Martin, will be docked at Keyham. The St. George, 121, Captain Eyres, was yesterday placed at her sailing moorings at Hanioazc. The screw steam-ship Desperate, 8, Captain AV. W. Chambers, will be taken out of dock to-day. The screw steam-ship Algiers, PO, will receive her fore and main masts to-day. WOOLWICH, FEE. 24. APPOINTMENTS, Lieutenants James H. Colton (1854), recently pro moted from mate of the Furious, 16, paddle-wheel steam frigate, in the Black Sea, to the Conflict, 8, screw steam sloop, at Portsmouth, William G. H.

Surgeon Alexander Bryson, M.D. (1836), serving as surgeon of the Fisgard flag-ship at Woolwich, to be Deputy-Inspector of Hospitals. It is supposed the promotions of the above-named two surgeons is to have them ready for service in an hospital ship about to be commissioned for the purpose of accom panying the fleet under the command of Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Napier, K.C.B. Captain Sulivan, who has been appointed to the Light ning steam-vessel at Woolwich, has arrived here and hoisted his pendant, and commenced entering petty officers and seamen ; and intends retainine , the services of the stokers at present serving in the Lightning. One colour-sergeant, one corporal, one drummer, and 14 privates of the Woolwich division of Royal marines, have been placed under orders for service in the Archer, 14, screw-corvette, at Woolwich, Two colour-sergeants, two corporals, two drummers, and 20 privates of the same division have been placed under orders to hold themselves in readiness to proceed to Sheerness for service in the steam-sloops commissioned at that port on Saturday fast. One corporal and seven privates of the same division have been draughted for service in the Arctic regions. One corporal and seven privates have been draughted for the Talbot store-ship, also for the Arctic regions. The Diligence store-ship is to come round from Ports mouth to Deptford to take on board stores for the relief of Captain Sir Edward Belcher's expedition, and will accompany the Phoenix and Talbot to the Arctic regions. The recruits of the Woolwich division of Royal Marines, who are most advanced in their course of drill and great gun exercises, are to be sent on board the flag-ship at this port to relieve an equal number of pri vates serving in that ship, who are to be sent to the steamers recently commissioned, being perfected in their course of instruction.
