By a letter from Varna, dated August 24, it appears that at that date she had taken on board a battery of artillery, and no fewer than 90 horses, with a corresponding number of soldiers of the cavalry, intended for the land opera tions against Sebastopol ; and her master was in daily expectation of receiving orders to sail with the fleet. The troops were in excellent spirits at the prospect of at length being permitted to enter upon active service. The following is a copy of a letter received from the Board of Admiralty by the owner of the Glendalough : " Sir,—l have to acquaint you, for the information of the owners of the troop-ship Glendalongh, that their lord ships have received with much satisfaction a report from the commanding officers of the troops convoyed in that ship from Dublin to Constantinople, of the creditable manner in which the master has discharged his duties, and of the way in which the service has been performed.

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. It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there aro principles of personal management which cannot be violated without Incurring grievous penalties, anu when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, ar.,l how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, '..hat there is scarcely any degree 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 cars of ignorant i empirics, who inflict great injury on those who aro induced to place aith in their pretensions.

THE WAR. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Conqueror line-of-battle ship, pierced for 120 guns, building at Devon port, and the Edgar, at Woolwich, are both so far advanced that they will be ready for launch ing early in the spring. H.M.S. Algiers, 91, Captain Talbot, from Sheerness, for Devonport, arrived and anchored in the Downs, at six a.m. yesterday. _ . The 6uracoa, 31, now screw frigate, got steam up yesterday in Portsmouth steam-basin, and worked her propeller for some time, all appearing sound. The Dauntless 24, screw frigate, Captain Ryder, ar rived at Spithead: yesterday afternoon from the Nore, and the Stromboli, 6, paddle sloop, yesterday also, from the westward. The Horatio steam-frigate is ordered to be taken into the fitting-basin at Sheerness to make good some slight derangement in the gear of her screw-propeller. The Rhadarrianthus, steam store-ship, will leave on Friday for the eastern yards, with ropes, sails, &e. ' The Fire Queen, tender, Master Commander F. W. Paul, will go into dock as soon as the Vifredo comes out. The Black Prince passed Sheerness yesterday in tow of the. Adder and African for Portsmouth. The following ships are now being manned, and have entered either the number of men required or have nearly filled up their complement :—The Royal Albert, 121, Capt. Alexander Little, fitting at Sheerness ; the Curacoa, 30, Capt. the Hon. G. F. Hastings, fitting at Portsmouth; the Cossack, 20. Captain Fanshawe, fitting at Chatham ; the Harrier, 16, Captain Story, fitting at Portsmouth; as also the Swallow, 9, Captain Cranford, and the Cur lew, Captain Lambert, fitting at Chatham. The following officers have taken up their commissions at Sheerness, and await passages to their respective ships (as supernumeraries) on board the Waterloo flag ship :—Mr. D. M. Shaw, for the Spiteful, and Mr. P. W. Wallace, for the Britannia, both assistant-surgeons ; Dr. Newman, for the Trafalgar. A court-martial is ordered to assemble on board the Waterloo, at Sheerness, to-morrow, at 9 a.m. All cap tains and commanders are ordered by the Commander in-Chief to be in attendance. DEVONPORT, TUESDAY. The flag of Rear-Admiral Superintendent Eden was struck on board the Plymouth yacht, and hoisted on board the Royal William yesterday morninfr, when it was saluted for the first time by the Royal William and Impregnable. The officers and men lent from the Calcutta, 84, to -the Royal William, returned to their own ship yesterday morning. APPOINTMENTS. Commanders—Herbert G. Austen (1846), to the Coastguard ; Charles Codrington Forsyth (1849), from the Coastguard, to command the Hornet, 17, screw steam-sloop, at Portsmouth, vice Commander Frederick A. Campbell, promoted to be captain. Lieutenants—George M. Smith (1846), from the Coastguard, to the Waterloo, 120, flagship at Sheerness; Henry Bacon (1841), from the Powerful, 84, at Ports mouth, to the Termagant, 24, screw steam-frigate, at Portsmouth. Assistant-Surgeon James S. Ayrest (1847), from the Algiers, 91, screw steam-ship, at Sheerness, to the Royal Hospital, Plymouth. Acting Assistant-Surgeon John G. Smith to the Al giers, vice Ayrest. Midshipman—Charles Hastie to the Curacoa, 30, screw steam-frigate, at Portsmouth. PROMOTIONS. Commander Frederick A. Campbell (1846), who fitted out at Woolwich the Hornet, 17, screw steam-corvette, and is at present in command of that vessel at Ports mouth, to be captain. Mates—Charles D. Robinson (1851), serving in the Pluto paddle-wheel steam vessel, on the west coast of Africa station, and H. H. M. Magrath, to be lieutenants. Assistant-Surgeons—William Duirs, M.D. (1843), serving in the Rodney, 90, on the Mediterranean and Black Sea station ; John Watt Reid (1845), acting sur geon of the Inflexible paddle-wheel steam-sloop, on the Mediterranean and Black Sea station ; and Stephen Bowden (1845), acting surgeon of the Valorous, paddle. wheel steam frigate on the Baltic station, have been pro moted to be surgeons. MAIL FOR THE BLACK SEA-THE GUN BOATS. The following was put up at the gate of Woolwich dock-yard yesterday : " Notice.—Letters for the Black Sea will be des patched by her Majesty's steam-vessel Lynx from Devon port on the 16th inst." It is now certain from the above notice that three of the screw steam despatch gun-boats arelintended for ser vice in the Black Sea—the Arrow, Lieutenant-Com mander Jolliffe ; the Beagle, Lieutenant-Commander Hore ; and the Lynx, Lieutenant-Commander Luce, under orders to leave Woolwich this morning for Green hithe, and then proceed to Devonport to take out a mail from that port to the Black Sea. The only screw steam despatch gun-boat sent to the Baltic up to the present time is the Wrangler, Lieutenant-Commander Risk. The Viper, Lieutenant-Commander Lodder, is in dock at Woolwich preparing for sea, and the Snake is having her engines put on board. As it will take some time to complete the two latter despatch gun-boats for sea, and the advanced period of the season would not allow of their services being available for any length of time in the Baltic this year, it is consequently expected that they will also proceed, when ready, to the Black Sea, and that the six new light draught of water gun-boats will be sent with the fleet early in the ensuing spring to the Baltic. TRIAL OF THE COLOSSUS. Colossus, 80, Captain Spencer Robinson, will go to Spithead to day ; she will also take a few turns at the measured mile to test her speed, with all her weights on board. COMPLIMENT TO FRANCE. In compliment to France, and in testimony of the firm alliance existing between the two countries, the Admiralty has resolved to name one of the line•of-battle ships about to be launched " La France." THE SEAMEN IN THE BALTIC FLEET. rly the whole of the seamen who entered for ~> rvice in the Baltic fleet, with the right to claim their discharge at the end of the present year, have volunterlred for continuous service. SURVEY OF THE HANNIBAL. There are no defects in the machinery of the Hannibal, Commodore Grey, beyond the usual wear and tear to which all metals under severe and constant friction are 'tuhebireeeptort of requirements Ano ffilsurvey was made ye s t er day upon from the engineering depart. merit of the ship. Her engines have in every respect during her passage o ut, cruising in the Baltic, and on her return home acted most satisfactorily. She will not be taken into the basin at Sheerness for being docked until the latter end of next week. Some of her officers have obtained leave of absence from the commodore. SALE OF THE CAROLINA. The Russian vessel Carolina, Ehlers late master, 285 tons burden, built at R i g a in 1832, prize to her Majesty's ships Amphion and Archer, was sold by auction yester day, at Yarmouth, by the Admiralty broker, realising a considerable sum. ROYAL ARTILLERY. Upwards of 170 men of the 3d Battalion of the Royal Artillery, under the command of Captain Mar riott, arrlved. at Bristol yesterday morning, and pro ceeded to their destination at Horfield barracks. TLe men rode the horses which are used for the field pieces, the Aeld pitmen Win conveyed to Bristol by Water from THE IVA B. (From the Daily News.) . It is an ugly fact that the Sebastopol expedition was strenuously opposed in the preliminary councils held to discuss its feasibility by Prince Napoleon, the cousin of the Emperor of the French, and by the Duke of Cam bridge, the cousin of the Queen of England. These princes will necessarily be believed by the multitude to know more of the.minds of their respective courts than the generals less intimately connected with them ; and this belief will strengthen the still lingering suspicion that our commanders in Turkey have had their hands tied throughout the year by home influences. In Paris the conviction is universal that the 'Sebastopol expedi tion has only been carried into effect in consequence of the dogged refusal of Marshal St. Arnaud to listen to any opposition to the plan ; and that the marshal's obstinacy had good cause—his conviction that, unless some enterprise of the kind was set on foot, the discon tent which compulsory inaction and disease had kindled throughout the French expeditionary army would break out into open mutiny. That the soldiers of the allied armies, when let loose upon Sebastopol, can be turned back by no resistance that Russia can offer, is as cer tain as any future event can be. But the victory will be owing to the gallantry of the troops alone ; the high authorities, who seem to set them in motion, will have been compelled to gain a victory against their will. Nor is this the worst feature of the case in so far as these high authorities are concerned. Their tardy and reluctant consent that Sebastopol shall be attacked has been obtained, in part at least, on the strength of another consideration than the necessity of some such enterprise being taken in hand to prevent the demoralisation of their armies. They flatter themselves that the popular exultation awakened by the fall of Sebastopol will efface the memory of the inglorious part played by the French and English armies in the East during the campaign on the Danube of 1854. In this anticipation they might not, perhaps, have been altogether deceived had it not been for the malice or stolidity of their precious ally, the Austrian Government. The Austrians are conducting themselves—either with malignant iritention or through the most boundless stupidity--in Wallachia, in a man ner that must expose the French and English Govern. ments to the contempt and hatred of every man worthy of the name, unless they promptly protest against and put an end to it. Austrian troops have entered Wallachia in consequence of the treaty concluded between the Porte and the Em only object the attainment of which can warrant the advance of these troops into the Principality is the necessity of their presence to obtain the evacuation of the province by the Russian troops. But the only thing that the Austrian commander, General Hess, and his subordinate agent at Bucharest; Colonel Halic, have yet attempted, is to keep at safe distance from the Russian army, to insult wantonly the Turkish Com mander-in-Chief, and to impair the efficiency of the army under his command. Colonel Halic deliberately pre sented to Omer Pacha a note requiring him to withdraw his troops to the south side of the Danube. This peremptory request, on the part of a Power which has not yet struck one blow against Russia, nor even shown itself strong and courageous enough to do so, was of course immediately negatived by the commander of the the as backvictorious army, irom which, the unaided, anube. that the Russians were still within a few leagues of Bucharest, and that until their last man had crossed. maser driven Pacha replieds si the Pruth, the withdrawal of the Turkish army to the south of the Danube was out of the question. Even an Austrian could see, after this reply, that his demands werq untenable, and Colonel Relic begged leave to • vrithdraw his insolent note. But though the Turkish Commander-in-Chief has resisted the Austrians on this point, he has been less successful on one of, perhaps, still more vital importance. Omer Pacha has in his army, and upon his staff, a few Polish and Hun garian officers. These gentlemen have been five or six years in the Turkish service ; they are first-rate soldiers ; they speak the Turkish language, and enjoy the entire confidence of the men ; they are, in short, the best officers Omer Pacha has—the only officers in whom he has implicit confidence. To deprive him of them is to deprive him entirely of the power of manoeuvring in the field, of marching to victory, an array which has perhaps never been surpassed so far as the common soldier is concerned, but which is sadly deficient in officers. Yet the very first demand of the Austrians after entering into Wallachia was that no Polish or Hungarian officer in the Turkish service should be allowed to remain in that province. This arrogant request has tamely been complied with. The Turkish Government could and ought to have answered that it had the same right to retain in its army Poles and Hun garians who have been years in its service, as the Aus trian has to retain Frenchmen and Englishmen (or Irishmen), who owe it no allegiance by birth. But the Turkish Government, instead of standing on its un doubted right, is sending some of those high-spirited, brave, and intelligent officers to compulsory idleness in the neighbourhood of Monastir, and others to hopeless toils and privations, and a nameless death in Asia, leav ing its Danubian army like a fair and athletic frame from which the spirit has departed. So keenly does Omer Pacha feel these insults offered to him by the Austrians, and this weakening of his army inflicted with the complicity of his own Government, that at the time when our most recent despatches left Bucharest, he had shut himself up, and refused to hold his ordinarylevees. t i n a ik - s C ee h d i t e t h f toe and rd aeyp h r f i eo s cr a r a t m l el d y .

Tney are covering the rear of the re treating Russian army ; they are insulting the Turkish Commander-in-Chief, and wresting from him the insane of handling his army in the field ; they are playing the part of brutal and despotic masters in a country they professed to enter as friends. And in all these outrages France and England are the accomplices of Austria. It was the combined influence of the European diplomacies at ?era that prevailed upon the Porte to conclude the fatal convention of Boyadji-Keuy with Austria. It is in obedience to the persuasions of the French and English commanders at Varna that the Turkish authorities submit to the in sulting interference by which the Austrians are subvert ing the discipline of their army and exposing its com mander to derision. Unless backed by France and England, the Austrians would not idare (to remain an hour in Wallachia, where all classes concur in regarding their arrival as, if possible, a worse bisitation than that of the Russians. And it is obvious thOtA.ustria calculates r upon no mere temporary occupation of th e Danubian Austria Principalities. Austria .took possession o f these Pro vinces once before, and was most reluctantl y o b liged to give them up ; she has taken care to stipulate cc lat a et o h ran a d th c e e r be t h n dislodged g upo n _ from p ii rfrom th e O ttoman empire. estia has f or can - in them, s Austria was the first mover of th e present t twr u r t e lp s he t Br e he n aa elt shall not cr yet oa e o be negotiated . troubles; for Prince Leiningen's mission to Constantinople preceded that of Prince Menschikoff, and was equally in sulting. In the game it is now playing i n Wallachia, Austria is only acting in character ; but hew are the French and English Governments acting in conde scending to be made its cat's-paws ? These Govern ments, in abetting Austria, are acting with their eyes open ; to appeal to their senses of honour would be useless. But something may be accomplished by ap pealing to their sense of danger. The present secure and triumphant position of the Emperor of the French is mainly owing to the pert he has hitherto played in the great Oriental movement ; by tamely submitting to become the accomplice of Austrian insolence, falsehood, and wrong in Wallachia, he will lose all he has gained. As for the English Miiiistera are they prepared to brave the storm of popular contempt, indignation, and hatred that will break over them, if they continue to coun tenance and support Austria in the outrages against • every principle of law and morality which it is now per ' petrating in Wallachia (From the Times.) The answer of the Russian Government to th e l ast propositions addressed to it by the Cabinet of Vienna has been communicated by the Austrian Minist ers t o the representatives of the Western Powers, and th e sub stance of this document has been published in the Vienna journals. Like all the previous communication s of a similar nature, it is extremely temperate in its language; for, though Russia never scruples to bully and insult, even by the violence of personal outrage, those States which she hopes to rule by intimidation, she affects an extreme gentleness and candour in her dealings with those German Powers which might have the power to resist her will. A Prince Alenschikoil was her instru ment when she sought to overawe the Divan, and lay • the Sultan proetrate at Iva het, A wince Dolprouki was her envoy to the Court of Persia when, in the month of March last, he attempted to establish the as cendancy of his master by giving a blow with his cane to tne Sedr Azim, or First Minister of the Shah. But Germany is for the present more delicately handled, and, though the struggle for the supremacy of Russia in the Courts of that country is carried on with as much activity eel the struggle for domination in the East, it wears a more civil mask and a softer disguise. In the present instance, Russia contents herself with expressing her surprise that Austria should have transmitted these four propositions to St. Petersburg, unaccompanied by the offer of any reciprocal concessions on the part of the Western Powers ; and she eudeavours to represent her evacuation of the Principalities as a sacrifice which en titles her to some return. She also expresses surprise that Austria should have given her assent to proposi tions so adverse to Russia, and so much in favour of the Western States ; and, in announcing her determination to reject them, she declares that the Emperor abides by his determination to withdraw behind the Pruth, to stand upon the defensive within his own territories, and to resist aggression, from whatever side it may come. It is scarcely necessary for us to expose in detail the egregious bad faith of the attempt to represent as a con cession to Europe the evacuation of a territory which the Emperor of Russia had no right to seize, and which he had not the power to hold. His official journal, somewhat more sincere than his diplomatic agents, has distinctly acknowledged that the Russian army is compelled to retreat by the menacing attitude of Aus tria, which rendered its military position quite unten able ; and the attempt to make a virtue of so evident a necessity will impose on no one but the King of Prussia. Equally unfounded is the assumption that, in forwarding these proposals to St. Peterburg, Austria had assumed the functions of a mediator. She had no commission from the Western Powers to mediate in their name, and the terms to which she gave her consent were not con cessions, but demands, their object being not sCe much to terminate the present war as to prevent by perma nent and effective securities the recurrence of a similar calamity. The same artifice was resorted to in Febru ary last, when, although Russia perfectly knew that France and England were on the brink of declaring war, ehe affected to regard their entry into the Black Sea as an act of mediation, and expressed surprise that they had no reciprocal concessions to propose to her from Turkey. It is, however, true that this Russian Note does clearly mark an important epoch in this contest. The war begun by Russia in July, 1853, was essentially offensive ; it had been preceded by a wanton provoca tion, and it was marked by a deliberate territorial en croachment; throughout the present spring the Russian armies threatened Bulgaria, and they even commenced the invasion of Turkey Proper by entering the Do brudscha and laying siege to Silistria. All these attempts have been successively abandoned, and we are told by the Cabinet of St. Petersburg itself that the war is hence forth to be strictly defensive. Although the decision taken at Vienna upon the receipt of this communication was to adhere to a temporising policy, and has conse quently revived some distrust of the intentions of that Court, it must not be forgotten that this important change in the attitude of Russia is mainly due to the in fluence of the Austrian forces on the frontier, and that it is precisely because Austria gave her powerful support to the heroic exertions of Omer Pacha that the French and English armies escaped the necessity of a campaigu on the Danube, and are at this moment able to turn their strength against the Crimea. The effect of this important demonstration has been to enable us to trans port the seat of war from the Turkish to the Russian territories—a distinction of incalculable advantage to the cause we have taken in hand. The present state of affairs has, therefore, prac tically accomplished three out of the four points which are required. The protectorate and occupa tion bf the Principalities by Russia have ceased ; the Black Sea is held by the Western maritime Powers ; and the claim to protect the Christian subjects of the Porte is, at least, in abeyance. But the fourth point, which concerns the navigation of the Danube, and which is the most essential of all to Austrian and German inte rests, has not yet received the same practical solution. The Russian province of Bessarabia forms the left bank of the Danube, from the cent:Nemec, of the Pruth to the sea, and the Kilia branch of the river flows through Russian territory. Along the shore to the east of Galatz the Russians are doing all they can to strengthen their position ; batteries are erected wherever the banks are firm enough to bear them, as at Reni and Satunovo ; and it must be remembered that even Matschin, Isaktchi, and Tultcha—the Turkish forts on the right bank—are still held by the Russians. The fact then is, that the Lower Danube is in the possession of the enemy ; that the line of Austrian communications with the Black Sea and the East is still interrupted, and that the navi gation of the Danube is still closed. So that on the very point on which Austria had most reason to in sist she obtains no satisfactica or security at all ; and when the Cabinet of Vienna declares that it finds no clisus belli in the refusal of Russia to entertain the f.ur propositions, it appears to have overlooked the injurious and humiliating consequences of a state of things on the lower Danube, which has been repeatedly deplored and denounced by the whole of Germany. At present the great expedition to the Crimea absorbs all the available forces of the fleets, and the summer season is unfavourable to any attempt upon the marshy banks of the Danube, which might be made with far greater facility in the early spring, when the water is high from -the melting snows, and the climate less unhealthy than at any other part of the year. We have always been of opinion that an attack on the Russian positions on the Lower Danube might have been the first operation of the war, and that some blame attaches to the naval authorities for not setting more seriously about it. However, the Sulina batteries are destroyed, and we believe that measures have been taken to deepen the passage on the bar, so that this expedition may eventually be made. But, whenever our naval forces are employed for this purpose, we shall have a right to expect that Germany will lend something more than sterile negotiations and wordy despatches to an object of such extreme importance to herself. Sooner than tamely surrender the control of the naviga tion of the Danube to Russia, which she acquired by the cession of Bessarabia in 1812, and by the use made of the Treaty of Adrianople in 1829, the Court of Vienna ought not to have hesitated to make any sacrifices. By an extraordinary combination of events, the Austrian forces are now advancing to the Moldavian frontier ; the naval forces of the greatest maritime Powers are within reach of the spot ; the Turkish army is in a con dition to render important services in the field ; and if the whole course of the Danube is not swept clear of all military impediments in the next few months, it will be solely because Austria may fail in that portion of the enterprise which naturally devolves upon herself. Such an opportunity will probably never occur again if it be neglected now, and, while France and England are carrying on undertakings of far greater magnitude, in which they are only interested as the champions of civilization and good order in the world, we hope it may not be too much to expect that, with their assistance, Germany may be capable of one effort to secure the independence of that great river which flaws from the Black Forest to the Black Sea. REGULATION OF FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. The report from the Select Committee on the proposed bill for the regulation of Friendly Societies has just been printed, and details the amendments recommended. These include a clause repealing all previous acts, and placing the whole of the existing societies on the same footing as if they had been established under the new bill, without prejudice to existing engagements, together with the omission of the proviso that a justice of the peace shall be a trustee of all emigration societies, and also of that which limits the amount of sick pay to be insured in any society. The committee have likewise withdrawn the clause requiring all societies to be regis tered, and have given power to the members of all friendly societies, unregistered as well as registered, to sue and be sued, as between themselves and their own officers. The establishment of a board of unpaid com missioners has been sanctioned, some public centre of information being regarded as desirable, and power has been assigned to them to modify in special cases the ope ration of the act. At the same time the duties of the registrar have been more clearly defined, and the fees hitherto payable upon registration abolished. The settlement of disputes is to be left as at present, to be enforced according to the rules of each society, and ques tions respecting the removal of a trustee or a misappli cation of funds are to be referred to the County Courts. With regard to the popular impression that burial so cieties are dangerous, by operating as a stimulus to child-murder, the committee, after examining several judges, coroners, and others, have arrived at the con clusion that the instances where the motive of the cri minal has been to obtain money from a burial society are so few as not to render necessary any preventive legislation. With the view, however, of meeting some of the objections to these clubs, they recommended that the amount that may be received should be limited, and that no money shall be paid on the death of any child under 10 years of age without a medical certificate from a qualified practitioner. Finally, with regard to those societies originally enrolled under Friendly Socie ties Acts before there was any limit as to the extent to which they might carry their transactions, and which have since grown to the magnitude of assurance com panies, the committee are of opinion they should be dealt with exceptionally, and that an act should be passed which, without violating the rights they have acquired under their constitution, shall withdraw them altogether from the category of friendly societies. SUDDEN DEATH OF A MIDDLEBSX 111.1GISTRATE,— Yesterday, at the meeting of the St. Pancras Vestry, Mr. Bilhitt, the chairman, said that it was his painful duty to announce to the meeting the death of their re spected colleague, Mr. Stock. He was in perfect health on Monday, when he attended a meeting of the burial board, of which he was a member. lie (Mr. Billett) left him at 5 o'clock in good health and spirits, and in a few minutes afterwards he was a corpse. Deceased was in his 70th year of age, and had been in her Majesty's commission of the peace many years. The vestry passed a resolution honourable to the memory of the deceased gentleman. "General Board of Health, Whitehall, September, 1854. " Sir,—My experience of this department, brief as it is, has strongly impressed me with a sense of the great want that is now felt of some systematic record of cases of choleraic disease, their treatment and results, with a view to determine, in so far as may b e possible, th best mode of meeting this formidable epid em i c. "Hitherto no successful attempt has been made to collect such a record ; and as I find that niy feelinc, of the want of it is very generally shared by the medical profession, I have obtained the sanction of her Majesty's Government to the nomination of a medical council, re presenting all branches of the profession, and consisting of Dr. Paris, Sir James Clark, Dr. Alderson, Dr. Ba bington, Dr. Tweedie, Dr. Baly, Mr. Lawrence, Mr. Simon, Professor Owen, Mr. B. W. Ward, Mr. John Bacot, and Dr. Farr. " Under the sanction of this council, the following form of return has been prepared for transmission to all qualified practitioners in the metropolis, to be tiled up by-them, with a view to obtain their experience of the present epidemic. "The deaths from cholera, as well as from all other causes, are registered in England ; but it is evidently desirable that in this, as in other countries, the cases of recovery, as well as of death, should be systematically observed and recorded. But this can only be accom plished by the cordial co-operation of all the medical men in practice, which the board hopes, in this im portant matter, to obtain, by acting on the advice of a council in which all branches of the medical profession are represented. ‘cßy means of a return, in the acoompanying forms ; the observations of all qualified practitioners on the cases that come under their care may be collected apd ' made available for determining the laws which regulate ' choleraic disease, and the effects of the different sys tems of treatment now in use. "Any return that you may make will be considered strictly confidential, but your name will be recorded as a contributor to the observations, when the general results are made known. " Under the urgent pressure of practice to keep any accurate record of the cases will often be attended with difficulty; but this difficulty will, I feel assured, be cheer fully encountered by you, if you agree with me in think ing a record of the experience of the present generation of medical men as to this epidemic likely to contribute to the alleviation of the sufferings of mankind for the future. " The return on the other side is sent filled up, as a specimen, with blank forms. Any number of such forms you may require will be furnished by this office. "It is recommended that the forms should be filled up from day to day, and returned to the board on or be fore the 15th of November next, addressed to the Secre tary of the General Board of Health, and the postage of the letter enclosing the return need not be prepaid. —I have the honour to remain, sir, your obethent ser vant, "B. HALL." [The return alluded to sets forth the residence of the patient, when attacked with the disease, his profession, and indicates whether the disease has assumed the form of simple or choleraic diarrhoea, cholera, consecutive fever, &c. ; with the treatment, &c.] THE ROYAL MlNT.—Yesterday afternoon a malignant case of Asiatic cholera occurred in the Royal Mint, Tower-hill. The deceased's name was Mary Cook, aged 29 years, a domestic servant in the house of Mr. Brand, the master of the Mint. The deceased was previously in good health, and had only been married a fortnight. She was seized with violent diarrhoea and the usaal symp toms of the disease, and although she received every pos sible attention from Mr. Cooke, of Tower-hill, she ex pired from a malignant attack of the epidemic. The body was subsequently conveyed to the dead-house of St. Botolph Without, Cartwright-street, Rosemary-lane, and was buried last evening. THE PRECINCT OF Tali TOWER.—Late on Monday evening a respectable-dressed man, about 40 years of age, was suddenly seized with spasms of the stomach as he was walking along Tower-hill facing the garrison. The foot passengers, who saw the deceased fall to the pave ment in a state of great agony, carried him to the Old' George Tavern, Trinity-square, where a medical gentle man was soon in attendance, but the unfortunate de ceased never rallied, but died in a few minutes. Mr. Orton, the beadle of the Tower precinct, was called to take charge of the body for a coroner's inquest ; the gates of the Tower being closed the deceased was placed in a cellar adjoining the public-houlie, but yesterday morning was taken in a shell to the dead-house in the Tower meat. An inquest will be held by the Tower coroner (Mr. Baker, jun.) this day. ST. BOTOLPH WITHOUT, ALDGATE.—The seaman who was removed from the schooner, Glencatty, on Monday morning, off the Ironga.te-wharf Lower East Smithfrekl, expired on board the Cholera Hospital ship, Deptford, sood after his arrival. Several new cases of Asiatic cholera were reported yesterday in the district of Upper East Smithfield, Rosemary-lane, and Hurn's-buildings. THE HAMLET OF RATCLlFF.—Yesterday morning the registrar of the district of Ratcliff received information of the following fatal cases of cholera :—A youth named Green, the son of the captain of the brig James, of South Shields, died on board the vessel, which was lying in the river, off Bell-wharf, Ratcliffe-cross. The deceased ex pired after an attack of four hours, and was attended by Dr. Carson, of Broad-street. The body was brought ashore to the Ratcliff green-yard, under the Blackwall Railway. A. person named Vince died in Regent's street, Commercial-road East. A coal meter, named Harry, of Heath-street, Ratcliff, expired after a few hours. A girl, named Mary Ann Gale, also fell a vic tim to the decease. Timothy Driscoll, aged 34, died at No. 19, London-street, after a few hours' illness. The deceased had been a ballast-heaver, employed on the river. THB STEPNEY UNION.—In consequence of a commu nication from the Board of Health the following medi cal gentlemen have been appointed by the board of guardians of the Stepney Union to form the medical staff of the district during the prevalence of the epide mic :—Mr. G. B. Millar, No. 5, Mount Etna, Mile end-road ; Dr. Humble, No. 3, Warkworth•terrace, Commercial-road East ; Mr. Henry St. John Bulien, No. 13, Stepney-causeway, Ratcliff ; Mr. Elsom, No. 6, Salmons-lane, Limehouse ; Mr. Sturge, No. 1, Sydney square, Mile-end Old-town ; Mr. Handy, No. 12, Wap ping-wall ; Mr. Cleland, No. 113, Cock-hill, Ratcliff ; and Mr. Bateman, No. 174, High-street, Shadwell. The dispensary in York-square is open day and Right, where medicine and advice can be had gratis, without an order. ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE-EAST.—Three more fatal cases of Asiatic cholera occurred yesterday at the cholera hos pital, Bath-terrace, Back-road, St. George's-in -the-East, Ellen-street, Back-church-lane, and Buross-street, Com mercial-road. Other cases have been reported in the district. LIVERPOOL, Wednesday.—There can be no longer any doubt that the cholera has become epidemic in Liver pool, and that the disease is decidedly on the increase in certain districts of the town. It is only right, how ever, to say that, so far, the great majority of the cases are confined to Scotland and Vauxhall wards, where fevers and disease of all kinds have always abounded. Still the epidemic would seem to be spread ing, as appears from the meetings of the local boards of guardians held to-day and yesterday. It appears from the meeting of the guardians of the West Derby Union (which includes that part of Liverpool known as Everton, and Toxteth-park) to-day, that there have been a great number of fatal cases in Toxteth-park during the week. And from an official communication made to the Liverpool select vestry, at their meeting yesterday, it appeared that the number of deaths in the parish of Liverpool (excluding Everton and Tox teth-park), for the week ending Saturday last, were 103, as compared with 79 during the preceding week, and 36 the week preceding that. It will therefore be seen that the disease is steadily progressing. The attacks, moreover, are not confined to the lower classes, inasmuch as there have been several fatal cases amongst those in the higher classes in society. Mr. • Dewhurst, a . respectable solicitor in the town, fell a victim to the disease yesterday. He was well and at business up to Monday even ing, when he was attacked, and died i yesterday morn ing. The Rev. John Macnaught, incumbent of St. Chrysostom's Church, Everton, was suddenly attacked early on Sunday mornin g , and during the day w as con sidered to be in a highly dangerous state. The rev. gentleman was prayed for in his own church on Sunday morning and evening, when the fact was made known to the members of his congregation. We are glad, how ever, to be able to say that he is now convalescent. There has been a decided change in the weather to-day, and the atmosphere has become much coo l er th an f or so me weeks past, which, it is hoped, will check the pro gress of the disease. THE GUN TRADE.—BIRMINGHAM, Tuesday.—Forms of tender for materials for small arms were this morn ing received, and the trade is thereby animated with the as , urance that the Belgian gun-makers are not in that state of perfection to complete with the tone and exact finish of British manufactures. The Board of Ordnance has manifestly acted only in a spirit of justice to the country when it ordered from Liege, for instance, rifle sights at 4s. 7d. each, which were charged here at ss. 10d. As soon, however, as foreign make are believed to be vastly inferior to our own, and obviously unsuitable to match the high class work in other parts of British war guns, the board has wisely and judici ously, and, in the opinion of the trade, has handsomely (for it has acted without loss of time) decided on dealing with fidelity to the nation and justice to the trade. Per suaded th a t ki ndly feelings rather than hostile motives influence the conduct of the board, the operatives, who greatly apprec i ate these considerations no less th n their the to co ntractors, are mor e di s p ose d th an ever put should ers to the wheel, and by working over t i me , and o with increased n i ce ty o f fi n i s h i n t h e i r work, able t o conv i nce the board, to please and Duke of N ewcas tl e , an d prove th e mselves a ble to sustain shatpise f-y to be the _ th rim, e o superiority of England in the fabrication of mallarras, a , The deputation consisted of Mr. S. Knight, county magistrate ; Mr. J. Fuller, churchwarden, Messrs. F. Pannell and H. Shaw, overseers ; Mr. S. E. Ellison, surgeon ; Mr. W. Pearce, Mr. T. Hughes, and Mr. C. C. Ceeley, vestry clerk. They complained of the state of the sewage throughout the district in question, but more especially of the open sewers in North-street and King-street. They desired that the Board of Health should, if it had the power, interpose its authority,' so as to compel a more efficient drainage and sewage of the district, without which it was impossible the health of the district could be preserved. Another ground of complaint ewaa,—that a -large amount of sewage was turned into the canal, and the water became in a most filthy and unhealthy condition. Sir B. HALL, who received the deputation with great courtesy, said, he was most anxious to do every thing in his power to assist in checking evils of the kind mentioned, or in removing any nuisances which might, be considered detrimental to the public health ; but he wished it to be known that that department had no control over the Commissioners of Sewers. He knew that the Commissioners of Sewers were most anxious to do their duty, and to see their works carried out properly and efficiently, and, at the same tune, as expeditiously as r o3,zible, but the task was such a heavy one that they could not do all they wished. In any future legislation upon the subject, it would be ne cessary to place the district sewers under the control of the local authorities, and make them responsible for the proper management of the sewage of their respective districts, cou tr olof while a the main sewers should ccor accordance placed e w with underthe the central b recommendations of th e Royal Commission om a • • mission appointed to inquire into the corporation of London. It would, in his (Sir B. Hall's) opinion, be quite impossible to secure anything like a sanitary condition of the inhabitants of the metropolis unless they attained three g reat objects— first, that the Thames should be purified b g y the construe tion of intercepting sewers ; second, that every street should have a sewer run through it ; third, that the owner of every house should be compelled to make a drain from his house to that sewer, which drain should be properly trapped, thus abolishing all cesspool'. The whole question of offensive trades must also come under consideration ; and, if those trades were to be permitted in the metropolis, all the appliances that art and science could suggest must be enforced for the purpose of pre venting the annoyance to which the public were at pre sent exposed. Another and very important inquiry must also be instituted when Parliament assembled as to how far the metropolitan water companies had complied with the engagements entered into in 1852. The period of three years given to the water companies to bring their supplies from beyond the tidal influence of the Thames, and from other sources, expired next ses sion, and a question so important to the sanitary condi tion of the public as the water supply must be fully gone into. The whole subject of sanitary reform, and the amendment of the Board of Health Act and the Nuisances Removal Act should be considered as soon as that board could have any leisure, so that bills upon those important subjects might be brought in early in the ensuing session. At that moment, however, it was im possible to do more than attend to the present epidemic and reply to the innumerable letters which reached the board, and which were much increased in consequence of persons writing to them on subjects which did not come under the jurisdiction of the department. It must be recollected that he (Sir B. Hall) bad only been at the head of that office about 3 weeks ; that the law was most imperfect ; that when he entered upon office the cholera was on the increase ; and that he had to make all the necessary arrangements for meeting the disease and checking it as far as possible. This, he was happy to say, had been effected to a very great extent, and he had been, generally speaking, ably and cheerfully assisted by the. local authorities. The gentlemen of the deputa tion would see that at that time the Board of Health did not control the Commissioners of Sewers, but he should be happy at all times to receive suggestions from local authorities which they conceived would in any way teat' to promote the public health and improve the sanitary condition of the people. The deputation then retired. THE COLLISION AT CROYDON.--EXPE RIMENTS BY CAPT. TYLER. On Tuesday a series of experiments, of considerable interest and importance, as tending to throw light upon the causes of the recent fatal railway collision at Croy. don, were made by Captain Tyler, of the Board of Trade, on the Brighton line, between Reigate and Croydon. The South-Eastern Company was represented on the occasion by Captain Barlow, the superintendent of that line, and the Brighton Company by Mr. Slight, their secretary, and Mr. Hawkins, their locomotive ouperin. tendent. The experiments were chiefly directed to ascertain in how short a time, and within how small a distance, a train of the bulk and momentum of the unfortunate ex cursion train could be stopped, or rather the second division of it, with which the collision occurred, and going at the rate of between fifty and sixty miles an hour. For this purpose two trains were made up pre cisely as the " excursion" wag, one by the Brighton com pany and the other by the South-Eastern, and laden re spectively with about 32 tons of iron and other mate rials, fairly distributed orer the carriages, that being calculated to be about the weight of the 450 passengers and upwards, who were travelling with the division of the excursion train which came into collision with the ballast engine. In order that these trials might have as much similarity as possible to an ordinary case of driving a train, the men in charge of the trains were net allowed to pull up from the first instant the distance or the semaphore signal caught their eye, but at an arbi trary given signal, indicated by Capt. Tyler himself, at a moment when they might not be expecting it. Four trips were made between the junction of the two lines at Redhill, near Reigate, and Croydon. The first was a South-Eastern train, and driven by men in the employ of that company. It started from Redhill at ono o'clock, and eventually attained a rate of speed of 62 miles for about a mile and a quarter ; and, when travelling at the rate of 531 miles an hour, Capt. Tyler gave the signal to stop, and the train was brought to a stand at a distance of 2,077 yards from the point where the signal was given, and that simply by the driver shutting off his steam, and the guard applying the two breaks attached to his van, without the engine having been reversed. The second experiment was with a Brighton train, driven by Brighton men. The last mile was run in 661 seconds, or at the rate of about 54 miles an hour, and the train was pulled up in 1,832 yards, after being signalled to stop, by shutting off the steam, applying two breaks, and without reversing the engine, or in less space by 245 yards than the preceding train. The third trial was conducted with a South-Eastern train, and by a driver and fireman belonging to that company. and the object of it was to ascertain in what distance it could he stopped by the application of the same moans, and added to them, the immediate reversal of-the-swine after the signal to stop. The result was that the train, while going a mile in 66 seconds, was brought up at the distance of 1,790 yards, or in two minutes ; but seven seconds were lost in the ap plication of the breaks by the driver not sounding his whistle until after he had reversed his engine. The fourth and last experiment was with a Brighton train and Brighton men, and, by arrangement, every available means was employed to stop it on being signalled— namely, reversing the engine, shutting off the steam, applying the breaks, and causing the engine to scatter sand along the rails. The effect of all this was that the train, while travelling at the rate of a mile in 63 seeopola was pulled up in a minute and a half after the signal, and in the distance of 1,389 yards. Now it is stated, on competent authority, that apt collision took place at a distance of 60 yards on the - London side of the north semaphore signal ; that between that signal and the south semaphore there is a distance of 373 yards and 2 feet ; and that the south semaphore signal can be seen by the driver of an approaching up. train 1,120 yards before he can reach it. The effect of a comparison between these figures and the results of the experiments of yesterday is to , throw consider• able light upon what might have been done by the driver of the excursion train—shortly t o b e arrAigneli on a charge of manslaughter—by simply attendi ng to the south semaphore signal, which on the day of the fatal catastrophe stood again s t hi m at " dang er." Assuming the last fi gures to be correctly stated, and pains have been taken to ascertain them accurately, h his had 1,553 yards and two feet i n w h ich to pull up train between the point whe re h e might havefirsts the danger signal and the place of collision. By availing himself, on the instant he saw the danger signal, of ell the means at his command to stop the train, the last ex periment of yesterday proves that he might have brought it to a stand at a distance of 1,389 yards, or 164 yards before the point of collision ; but it also proves that, omitting any one of those means, he could not hare pre vented that collision, for he could not have broigbt his train up till a distance of 237 yards beyond where it oc curred. There is this, however to be .eaid, that by ap plying any, though not the great es t amount of power at his disp osa l , to lessen the momentum dee train on first seeing the danger signal, the ballast engine would have had more time to get out of the way , and thou g h a concussion might not have been prevented, the force of it might ha ve b een so diminished as to have caused comparatively little damage.
