London, &c,, &o. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habit in s, irregularities, degradation :. hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any ether class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining sec r e t doubts 01 their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is abrolutely necessary thatall men Ghould know, that there are principles oe personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grlea-ons penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indelgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, bow the sting of their bitterness May be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoaled, and above all, that there i s scarcely any detrree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have unfortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant emPtries , who Inflict great injury on hose who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

It is rather remarkable that it should have been noticed in England and Ireland about the same time. It was first seen growing in a small pond in the garden of the chairman of the committee of botany for the Royal Dublin Society, at Booterstown, near Dublin. From this place some of it was conveyed to the Botanic Garden, Glasnevin, Dublin, and little was thought of it until its rapid growth in the rivers in Eng land drew attention to it. Where it does exist in Ireland it increases as rapidly as it does in England. There are now some millions of plants in the pond of the Botanic Garden, and as many more have been destroyed since it was first introduced.

I Spring waggons, on 4 wheel s , 20. t Flanders waggons, :9. *.Each of the men employed in removing the wounded from the field is to carry ono of these haversack-like bags filled with water. + Each waggon is capable of carrying from the field, or from field hospitals to hospitals in the rear, ten persons, namely, foul Gadly, and silt slightly wounded men, each iu a separate compartment. By this arrangement every indivi dual will be insured against inconvenience or injury from his immediate neighbours, which would, did no partitions exist, certainly prove most detrimental, especially to weakly and severely wounded men who might have to be transported along an irregular broken or sloping road, or over a country where no roads exist. These are intended for the carriage of bedding, stores, &c., to be used iu field hospitals ; and in the event of their not proving sufficient for the purpose, the waggons intended for the transport of sick and wounded are capable of being quickly dismantled internally, and made available to supply the deficiency. They, like the others, are placed on springs, and in case of necessity tau also be used for the carriage of 4 sick &fl woUlided. LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 17, 1854. MEDICAL SUPPLIES FOR THE ARMY OF THE EAST. Army Medical Department, 13; sb. James's• place, Oct. 16. Dr. Smith . Director-General of the Army and Ordnance Medical Department, presents his com pliments to the editor of The Sun, and as much misapprehension seems to exist as to the sufficiency of medical attendants, and of medical. stores and supplies with the army and in the hospitals in the East, and 'as great anxiety has thereby been caused to tho relatives of the sick and wounded, he sends the accompanying papers, showing the number of medical officers, and the quantity of medicine and hospital stores, which have been forvrarded from this country at different times since the 24th February last. In a memorandum, respecting medical stores supplied to the army in the East, the Director- General also states that : " The number of medical officers with the British forces in the East, at the time of the battle of the A]ma, was 276—being 1 to every 97 of strength.. In the Peninsula the number of medical officers was 1 to every 154 of strength. "At the present moment there are 30 more medical officers on their way to Constantinople, and 15 more are waiting embarkation. " Dr. Smith is happy in being able to state con fidently that the medical officers at Seutari:,(he believes 21 in number) have at their command everything necessary to the treatment of the wounded soldier; hence there is no necessity what ever for any effort being made by the publics to send out to Constantinople lint, old linen, &c." _ INSTRUMENTS, SURGICAL M.

The following list of medicines, surgical instruments, surgical materials, medical comforts, hospital stores, and means for the conveyance of sick and wounded, is fur nished to enable the medical officers of the army in Turkey 1. To ascertain the provision which has been made to meet the wants of sick and wounded, and the materiel which is with the army available for that purpose. 2. To report to me, through the Inspectoi-General of Hospitals, what other articles, if any, may be advantage ously applied to the supplies which have been forwarded. Special attention is requested to the carts and waggons which have been furnished for the conveyance of sick and wounded. No doubt, many defects will be discovered in both, therefore the medical officers serving with the army will, in all probability, have an opportunity of improving upon appliances that are known theoretically only to the British army, though practically to the French since 1792, when a supply of light waggons, accompanied by a corps of disciplined attendants, were sent into the field on the re commendation of the late renowned Baron Larry. But notwithstanding the French have used so long what we are now only beginning* to employ, still there is reason to be lieve much must yet be effected before we shall be able to consider the object in view to have been satisfactorily attained. Medic.4l officers will, therefore, be pleased to report, through the Inspector-General of Hospitals, whatever de fects they may discover in the vehicles which have now been supplied; and also suggest whatever alterations, ad ditions, &c., they may think calculated to render them more suitable and efficient ANDREW SMITH, M.D. Director-General, Army and Ordnance Medical Department. 13, St. James's-place, Juno 20, 1854.

The late Director• General, Sir James McGrigor, Bart., K.C.8., whose sagacity, foresight, and capacity of devising efficient means and arrangements for the welfare and safety of the sick and wounded of an army, and who was, and still is— on account of these and other qualifications he possessed to an unrivalled degrec—the admired of all who desired and yet desire, pcdniam qui meruit ferat, made, whilst ho was chief of the medical department of the army in the Pen insula, repeated efforts to have an ambulance corps, similar to what he saw iu use with the French, attached to the British force, but without success. I feel it imperative ou me to state this fact, and further to record that the army now in Turkey, which her Majesty's Government has permitted me to supply iu the most liberal manner with everything likely to prove advantageous to the interests of such sick and wounded as may occur, has actually been furnished with many of the most important articleS at the recommendation of my venerated predecessor, who,though in the 8 ith year of his ago, has afforded me during the last four months the advantage of his 58 years' experience in the public service, and so made me feel more at ease under the im portant and responsible duties I had to discharge than other wise I should have done. t During the Peninsular War rather more thaii one-third, but not quite one-half, of the medical officers of the =lay were generally ineffective from sickness, &c ; therefore, as there is no reason to expect less disease will occur iu Turkey, there must be, in addition to the above, a reserve of 68 medical officers to supply the places of such as become ugat tpr duty, • MEDICAL Port wine, GOO doz Brandy, 300 gall Preserved meet. of various kinds, 10 cwt Hogarth's essence of boef, 10 cwt BOOKS, STITIONERT, Hospital regulations, 102 Medical registers, 186 Historical registers, 66 Admission and discharge books, 66 Guard books for hospital re turn, G „ for circular letters (for staff only), Defanlter books, 4 Annual sick returns, '223 Quarterly ditto, 450 Bed-head tickets, 25,000 Returns of medicines, regi mental, 200 Returns of medicines, gene ral, 46 Requisitions for medicines, regimental, 256 Requisitions for medicines, general, 42 Requisitionsforinstruments, regimental, 256 • Requisitionsfor instruments, general, 42 Requisitions for steel trusses, Abstracts of medicines, ge- neral, 51 Boards of survey, 58 Inspection reports of trans ports, 248 Returns of arrivals and de partures, 174.

MEANS FOR THE CONVEYA FIE Bearers, or stretchers, 780 Spring carts, on two wheels, built according to the direc tion of ➢7r. Guthrie, 20. In addition to the before-mentioned supply, each corps is provided with a regimental, and with a detachment, me dicine chest, each chest amply furnished with medicines and surgical materials, according to the regulations of the service, also with a box of apparatus f )r fractures and dis locations. The surgeon of the corps has a full set of capital instru ments ; the senior assistant a portable set ; the surgeon and three assistants each a case of pocket instruments, and a case of lancets; there are likewise, for general use, a set of cupping instruments and a stomach pump. The slightly wounded are accommodated towards the front of the carriage, placed back to back, separated from each other by wooden partitions, and prevented from fall ing outwards by each compartment being provided with a chain covered with leather, to be passed across the chest, when the seat is occupied, with a view as well to safety as support. The badly wounded, extended on elastic stretch ers, 6 feet 6 inches long and 2 wide, are placed behind, and, as already stated, in separate compartments, into or out of which the stretchers glide with facility, from their being provided with rollers. Each of the compartments is fitted with a ventilator from end to end, which can be closed or opened by the person lying on the stretcher. A waterproof roof, supported oa wood hoops, covers the body of the carriage, and under it is a depository for firo locks, knapsacks, caps, accoutrements, &e. There is also under the seats for the slightly wounded men a large capa cious locker, in which may bo placed water sacks—for barrels soon become useless, especially if exposed to wea ther and iinn—bedding, and other articles, which the me dical officers of the army may consider as likely to be use ful; and under the hinder part of the waggon is a con ♦enient box, in which medicines, instruments, &c., can be carried if required. At the back part of each vehicle, there are two iron brackets, which fold down to support a stretcher, and so afford the means of forming a convenient table. This plan I from the first preferred, to one which was strongly urged on me, namely, to form a table by placing a stretcher across two panniers. SECOND SUPPLY.-SENT OUT IN JUNE.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Curagoa, 31, screw•frigate, Captain the Hon. G. F. Hastings, is complete in her rig at Portsmouth, with the exception of blacking down. She has her guns on board, and will be swung for the adjustment of her com passes this week, after which she will be ready for sea. Geyser, 6, paddle, has been masted at Portsmouth, and is ready for the pendant. Rolla and Sealark, tenders, went out of Portsmouth Harbour yesterday morning, for their usual Channel cruise: Mr, William Read has been appointed naval instruc tor to the Meander, 44, at Davenport. The Rhadamanthus, paddle-wheel steam store-vessel, Master-Commander John Belam, on arriving at Dept ford on Saturday afternoon, was ordered to prepare im mediately for taking on board a cargo of provisions and stores, and the men were employed from four o'clock a.m. on Sunday until seven o'clock in the evening. The Zephyr, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, Commander Lieutenant Charles G. Crawley, is ordered to proceed to Davenport to repair at that port for further service. The True Briton, No. 114 Transport, left Woolwich for Deptford to-day. The Widgeon returned to Woolwich to-day from the Prince, screw steam-ship, at Greenhithe, with the ship wrights who were sent down on Saturday to complete the fittings of that vessel. SALE OF THE MIRANDA'S PRIZE. Yesterday notices was given on the Royal Exchange that the Russian vessel Bognoja. Nadiecha, of which George Jorgotstein was late the master, a prize to her Majesty's steamer Miranda, in the White Sea, would within 20 days be condemned as a lawful prize, and sold for the benefit of her captors. The Court of Admiralty has issued a decree for the sale of the Russian ♦easel Johan Chri,tof, seized at Grimsby by the Customs' authorities, as a Crown droit. The next Russian vessels to be sold are the Abo, prize to the Tribane, and the Augusta, captured by the Arrogant and the Hecla, at Ekness. MEDICAL STORES FOR THE EAST. Yester(lay a ♦ast quantity of medical storeN and com fort for the wounded at Alma were taken out of the Tower stores and forwarded to Liverpool for immediate conveyance to the head-quarters of the medical depart ment. Among the articles sent out are a number of woollen serge gowns and trousers for the use of the convalescent. PROMOTION AND REWARD TO LORD RAGLAN. It is understood that Lord Raglan will be raised to the rank of Field-Marshal after the operations at Sebas topol. The committee of the House of Commons re ported in favour of additional field-marshals of repute being made. We believe it is decided to give his lord ship 50,0001. in lieu of pension; his private fortune was merely 10,0001. SURMARINE SERVICE IN THE BLACK SEA. Serjeant William Carne, Ist Company Royal Sappers and Miners, left Chatham on Saturday afternoon, to embark on board the Prince, steam-ship, for the Crimea. This non-commissioned officer is joined by Privates Lewis, Price, and Toohey, of the same company, and also with two civilians, selected by Government: These men are well known for their ability in the duties of submarine explosions, and are excellent divers. They go out for the purpose of re moving the five ships of war that are sunk by the Rus sians at the mouth of the harbour of Sebastopol. They take with them four sets of diving apparatus and all other necessary implements, and twenty galvanic batte ties, with five miles of copper wire. The charges to be used will be from one and a half to two tons of gun• powder, and will be fired at a distance of about two miles. The operations will be confined to the special charge of Serjeant Carne. Messengers will be at his command to transmit every inf. , rmation to Lord Raglan 'as the works of the submarine siege proceeds. Serjeant Carne left the head-quarters at Chatham full of spirits, having parted with his friends, being in full confidence of his success, not only of his completing the destruction of the ships, but also in removing and recovering the gulls. It appears that a number of divers, supplied with the diving apparatus of Messrs. Heincke, have been ordered to Sebastopol, for the purpose of removing the obstruc tion caused by the sinking of several Russian vessels at the entrance of the harbour. So pressing was the de mand that the diver of the Royal Panopticon, who since the re-opening of that institution has astonished the public by the display of the brilliant subaqueous light, has been put in requisition, and sent off at a few hours' notice.. 'Whilst the promptitude of the Government in providing the means of re-opening the harbour is deserv ing of all commendation, the fact that our fleet was sent ont unprovided with so essential an appendage as a suf ficient staff of divers, affords a singular instance of the supineness which has prevailed in official quarters in making—or rather neglecting to make—preparations for the war with Russia. FOR THE BLACK SEA. We believe that the fall of Sebastopol and the destruc tion or capture of the Russian fleet in the Black Sea are looked upon as so 'certain to take place that no reinforce ments of ships, with the exception of a steanx-frignte or two, is to be despatched thither at present. The fol lowing, however, will proceed to the Black Sea at once : The Miranda, 17, screw, Captain Lyons (son of Sir E. Lyons). She was swung for the adjustment of her compasses yesterday, and rebent her sails. She will call at Davenport for a mail, and leave there about the 10th. The Valorous, 16, paddle, Captain Buckle.—She left Sheerness yesterday, and passed through the Downs en route. The four screw despatch cruisers, Arrow, Beagle, Lynx, and Viper, are by this time with the fleet in the Black Sea, with eight of Lancaster's guns, to assist in the bombardment of Sebastopol. Three of these vessels were built by Mare and Co. ; engines by Penn and Humphreys. And the fourth was built by Messrs. Green, engines by Maudslay. The General Screw Company's fine 1,800 tons screw ship Queen of the South, commanded by Captain Nor mon, has been chartered by Government for the convey. ance of troops to the Black Sea. Ordefs have been issued at Southampton that she be got ready for sea with the greatest possible despatch, but, in consequence of her having just returned from Australia, thereby completing a voyage round the world, she will require docking and cleaning. We understan d , she is t o be re-coated with Peaco ck and Buchan s patent coin. position. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's screw-ship Manilla, Captain Evans, will probably take her de parture for Portsmouth to-day, there to take in a cargo of ship biscuit for conveyance to the Black Sea, for the use of the numerous Government vessels en gaged there. TRIAL OF THE PELTED,. The Pelter, screw steam light draught of water gun- boat, had her steam up yesterday in tho basin, under the superintendence of Mr. liartreo, of the firm of John Penn and Son, the makers of the engines on the high Prtnuro P . 4 l6 Plet 8110 has four boiltrg, each indepen• dent of the other, and will be tried down the river in a few days. TRIAL OF THE TARTAR. The steam was got up in the Tartar, 20, screw steam leervette, sister ship to the Cossack, and originally built by Mr. Pitcher, and fitted with engines of 250- horse power by Messrs. Maudslay, Sons, and Field, on their. patent horizontal cylinder, double piston rod principle, for the purpose of having her navigated to Chatham, to be completed at that port for sea, but in consequence of the lowntss of the neap tide she could not be taken out of the basin. Mr. Henry Mdudslay, having been on board to superintend the working of the engines on her passage round, had them tried at her moorings in the basin, and they worked admirably, making 43 to 49 revolutions per minute. - /y l.- ./ [pilloE SD.

The men ob tained leave for twenty-four hours on Saturday morning. and again for the same period yesterday, so as to be wlthin call at a short notice, should their services be required. The courts-martial on the officers of Captain Sir Edward Belcher's expedition, for leaving their ships in the ice, commence today at eleven o'clock a.m., and the papers to be produced on the occasion were very volumi. nous. THE ADMIRAL OF THE FLEET. Our Portsmouth correspondent, writing yesterday at Six p.m., says, we regret to state that Admiral of the Fleet, Sir Byam Martin, is in a very precarious state, and but little hopes entertained of his surviving the night. Sir Byam Martin has been in the navy since 1782, consequently he must be a very old man. Two of his sons are admirals, namely, Rear-Admiral SuperinteDdent W. E. M ar ti n and Rear-Admiral H. B. Martin, the junior flag officer of the Baltic fleet. ADMIRAL BERKELEY'S VISIT TO THE COLOSSUS. Rear-Admi ra l Berkeley, C. 8., the senior sea lord of the Admiralty, arrived at Portsmouth Dockyard yester day morning at a little before eleven. The gallant admiral, in the Vivid, Master Commander Allen, went on board the Colossus ' 80, screw, Captain Spencer Robinson, which Ship ha d, been under weigh early in the morning, to prove her engines and boilers at the run through Stokes Bay. The Colossus will, in all probability, leave for the West Indies this day (Tuesday), after re ceiving advance. THE AMERICANS IN CHINA. The Americans hare nut less than 13 ships of War, of all classes, in the China seas, and of these five are steamers. There are only the same number of British men of war there, whilst the French have only a 44-gua frigate and a steam-sloop. ARRIVALS FROM THE BALTIC. No 2 company of the Royal Sappers and Miners, under the command of Captain F. W. King, Royal En gineers, arrived at head-quarters at Woolwich yesterday. They landed at Roff's 'Wharf at one o'clock p.m., from the Baltic, and were played up to barracks by the brass band of that branch of the ordnance service at Woolwich. MAIL FOR THE BLACK SEA. A notice has been posted at the gate of Woolwich dockyard, stating that letters fur the Black Sea and Malta will be despatched by her Majesty's screw steam ship Miranda, Captain Edmund M. Lyons, from Devon port, on the 18th inst. COMMANDER RICRARD E. VIDAL.—This officer; who died on 31st August at Port Sarnia, Canada West, en tered the navy May 1, 1799, on board the Princess, guard-ship, at Waterford. From September, 1800, until May, 1801, he cruised on the coast of Ireland in the Glom:sore, and in August of the latter year he be came midshipman of the Vengeance. In her, besides witnessing the mutiny in Bantry Bay, he served at the blockade of Brest and Rochefort, and visited the West Indies. Joining next, in July, 1802, the Glutton, he made a voyage in that ship round the world. On his return to England he removed, in November, 1803, to the Seaflower. In the course of the service in the Sea flower he was captured in an attempt to cut a French privateer from the road of St. Denis, in the Isle of Bourbon, with a loss of one-half of the men under his command ; he was wounded, and was in consequence promoted to the rank of lieutenant by Sir E. Pellew, on his liberation from a French prison in the Isle of France in 1808. His release from captivity took place Feb. 29, 1808 ; in the following March and June he joined the Russell and Culloden ; and on Oct. 24, in the same year, he was nominated acting lieutenant of the Corn wallia. After his return from the West Indies he was employed from January, 1812, until January, 1814, in the Asia, 74, on the Channel and West India stations ; from Nov. 5,1814, until Oct. 7, 1815, as first lieutenant, in the Griffon, in the Channel ; from Nov. 1822, until January, 1826, in command of the Eagle, revenue cruiser ; and from Feb. 2, 1827, until Oct. 26, 1828, again as senior, in the Eden, on the coast of Africa. He attained the rank of retired commander July 22, 1830. Lieutenant Henry Duncan Blanckley (1844) died Sept. 25. He was son of the late Captain Edward Blanckley, R.N., and grand nephew of the first Lord Nelson. He entered the navy in 1532 ; .passed his examination May 1839 ; and served as mate on the home, Cape of Good Hope, and Mediterranean stations ; of Salamander and Devastation, steam-vessels, both commanded by Captain H. IL Henry ; Heroine, brig, Lieut. Commander T. D. Stewart ; Isis, 44, Captain Sir J. Marshall ; Caledonia, 120, flag-ship of Sir D. Milne • and Flamer, steamer, Lieut. Commander C. J. Pestle. He was appointed soon after his promotion, which took place Dec. 2, _ _ . . . . 1844, to Rattler, ateam-sloop, Captain H. Smith ; June 12, 134 G, was appointed to Inflexible,a similar vessel, Captain John Cochrane Hoseason, on the East India station ; and May 3, 1854, to Belleisle, hospital•ship in the Baltic. MILITARY. TIIE 46TH FOOL—The 46th Regiment, to a man, we believe, has now in reality left Windsor, and, we are happy to say, in a manner creditable to the town and the regiment ; for, whatever unfavourable impression was created by the proceedings on the late courts-mar- tial, so far as this town was concerned, never has there been a regiment located in it the non-commissioned offi cers and privates of which have conducted themselves is a more exemplary manner. With respect to the officers, too, as abody, their conduct, apart from that affair, has been that of gentlemen as well as officers.— Windsor Express. BELFAST, Oct. 14.—Assistant-Surgeon Teevan, of the 3d Buffs, and Assistant-Surgeon Rutherford, of the 62d, are ordered to London immediately, thence to proceed to do duty with the army in the East. Captain Boult bee, of the Royid Artillery, has been struck off the strength at Charlemont, having been ordered to Wool wich. One serjeant, one corporal, and five privates of the 21st North British Fusiliers, from the depot batta lion at Birr, relieved at Armagh, on Thursday last, the party of the 3d Buffs, Alio rejoined their depot at Newry esterday, to reinforce that garrison. CLONMEL, OCT. 14.—0 n Wednesday evening Major- General Eden arrived in this town by the 4 o'clock train. He was met at the station by Major Burslem and Ad jutant Jones of the 13th Regiment ; and having inti mated that he wished the inspection to proceed that evening, they at once repaired to the barracks, and in an incredibly short space of time the infantry and Captain Grant's company of the 16th Lancers, were paraded. The general expressed himself much pleased with the efficient state in which he found the garrison, and com plimented the officers, as well upon the discipline of the men as the harmony which prevailed amongst them selves. The general, who appears a hale old soldier, left for Waterford by the 7 p.m. train.—Prce Press. A draft of the 9th depot, in Tralee barracks, consist ing of two officers, Captain Hannan and Ensign Hussy, two serjeants, and 90 rank and file, left rather suddenly on yesterday week for Cork, en route to join the service companies at Malta. On Friday Lieutenant-General Fleming, C. 8., made his half-yearly inspection of Captain White's troop•l6th Lancers, In Limerick, and was much pleased at the splendid condition and appointments of the men, the horses, stabling, &c.

EVENING CLASSES for YOUNG MEN.—The sixth annual report of the metropolitan committee has just been issued. It states that, although there have been some struggles and anxieties during the past twelve months to maintain the cause of the evening classes for young men in London, the close of the year has left them more widely established and more firmly rooted than before. The average number of members during the year was 1,086, of whom 321 joined both the classes and the reading room, 320 the classes only, and 445 the reading room only. In the outlying districts the classes have been attended by 396 members. The annual volun tary r examination s t w l y a s points very satisfactory. an In tge e: conclusion, u t s h i o e n tz the o ti;. t 44 ' tutien, and the claims which it has EtPOII the sunor - • the young men in London. t . , ~y , t~ ~:~~
