Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &C. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con a equences resulting from certain habits, irregularities and excesses, Which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man • 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 whe are conscious of having hazarded the h ea l th h a ppin e ss, and privileges to which every human being is antitled. It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without Incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, bow the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional d erangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. 'a▪ le Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive Practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which are U nfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant e raDirics who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place fa[th in their pretensions. b NERVOUS DEBILITY may be had, price 2 s , of M essrs.

CITY OP LONDON ELECTION. Yesterday the electors of the city of London were convened in their ancient Guildhall, for the purpose of choosing a member to fill up the vacancy occasioned in the City representation by Lord John Russell's accept ance of the office of Lord President of her Majesty's Privy Council. Two o'clock was fixed upon for com mencing the proceedings, but the hall doors were thrown open an hour before, when an instantaneous ru-h took placa on the part of the crowd, who had previously col lected outside the building, to obtain the best positions for hearing the speakers. The Ball was speedily filled, with the exception of' that parYief it which is farthest from the platform, and from which oftenest proceed the vain and hopeless cries of " Spy.* out I" Sharp upon two o'clock, Lord John RussellNhe candidate who ap peared to solicit re-election, apperfired upon the platform, accompanied by the Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs, and other corporate dignitaries, in their civ robes and official in signia, and his lordship was receibed with a burst of loud and general cheering. In a moment or two afterwards the presence of Mr. Urquhart, the rival candidate, if such he could seriously be eonsidered, became known to a portion of the occupants of the platform ; but the hon. gentleman's appearance did not elicit any manifestation of feeling whatever—favourable or otherwise—from the body of the meeting, probably becrilise the great bulk of the auditory were unable to distinguish him from the gentlemen in his immediate Vicinity. The honour able gentleman—wiei',came arramk,Britlvopies of the Blue-books—seemed to stand in'the game solitary and unbefriended condition which he occupied on Mon day last, when he first presented himself to harangue the livery. Among the leading persons present we no ticed Mr. Thomson Hankey, M.P. ; Mr. J. A. Smith, M.P.; Mr. Wilkinson, M.P.; Mr. Oliveira, M.P.; Mr. J. Dillon, Mr. Crawford, Mr. Alderman Salomons, Mr. Alderman Humphery, Mr. H. J. Prescott, Mr. VT. F. A. Delane. &c. The small galleries were occupied by ladies of distinction. The business of the day was opened by Mr. Alderman and Sheriff WIRE advancing to the rostrum and announcing that the electors were assem bled there that day, in obedience to the writ of her Ma jesty, to choose a fit and proper person to represent that great City in Parliament, in the loom of the Righ Hon. Lord John Russell, who had accepted the office of Lord President of her Majesty's Privy Council. He (the Sheriff) had no doubt that the citizens of London would on that occasion exercise the right vested in them in their usual discreet manner; and all that the Sheriffs had to require of them was that they should patiently hear every person who might be entitled to address them. The Town Crier then read the Queen's writ, and also the act against bribery—the conclusion of the latter, somewhat lengthy, formality being hailed with cheers and hearty hurrahs. Mr. HENRY JAMES PRESCOTT then stood forward to nominate Lord John Russell. He said—The accept ance of office under the Crown by the noble lord having created a vacancy in the representation of the City, his lordship now offered himself to them as a candidate for re-election. The duty of proposing the noble lord had been entrusted to him, and in. the performance of that duty he should occupy but a very small portion of thei? time. It would indeed be idle in him to dwell upon the past career of Lord John Russell. There now existed no public man in this country--and he ventured to say there had existed no public man during the last quarter of a century--whose name was more completely identified with the history of his country than that of the noble lord. (Cheers.) They had seen him in opposition and in office—they had seen him the highest in the councils of his Sovereign--and in all these characters he had been conspicuous as the advocate and promoter of civil and religious liberty, of education, of commercial freedom, and of a variety of other measures, calculated to extend civilization, or to raise his country in the scale of nations. (Hear, hear.) That, in the multiplicity of his public acts, the noble lord might not have sometimes been wrong, he was not prepared to maintain—on the contrary, it had occasion. ally been his lot to differ from the noble lord in opi nion ; and there was one important subject on which he essentially differed with him, and ,that was with regard to the ballot. (Cheers.) He, however, would not dwell on that question ; and he was prepared to assert that they owed a deep debt of gratitude to his lordship for what he had done, e and what he had laboured to do, for his country and for mankind. (Hear, hear.) The ffice to which the noble lord had just been appointed would afford a special field for his talents and his patriotism. It would be his particular duty and province to attend to the educational wants of the people—(hear)—a task which, while it was one of the loftiest and most important, was at the same time one of the most difficult and delicate that could fail to a e i tatesman in this country at the pre sent day. All admitted the impcirtanee of education, and all right minded men desired to see its blessings extended to every class of society ; but, unfortunately, as to the particular mode of supplying its advantages there did not exist the same concurrence of opinion. Let them hope, however, that the noble lord, in his new office, might be able to reconcile conflicting views on this question, and to devise some means by which, with out offending the conscientious scruples of any class or sect; he might effect the general diffusion of a sound and sufficient system of national education. (Hear, hear.) But whilst they might hope that such subjects as that of popular education might continue to attract the attention of her Majesty's Government, there was unhappily another question which must at the present moment engross not only their attention, or at least a large portion of it, but that of the public. He alluded to the war in which they were at present engaged. —(hear, hear)—a war commenced by the Russian Go vernment seemingly upon the most frivolous pretext, but in reality from motives of the most greedy and selfish ambition. (Cheers.) That the aggressions of the Emperor of Russia would result only in his own discom fiture, and in the misery and distress of his own unhappy subjects, he thought the Czar himself must, by this time, , be nearly convinced. The promptness and energy dis played by the allied powers, and the vigorous measures they had taken—. (Loud cries of "oh ! oh !" and inter ruption, which drowned the remainder of the speaker's sentence.) It had been truly observed by the noble lord, in his address to the electors of London, that we all desired a solid, a durable, and an honourable peace —(hear, hear)—and by union, firmness, and energy on the part of the allied Governments, and by these qualities alone he (Mr. Prescott) felt sure that we should be able to obtain so desirable a result. If her Majesty's Government continued to display those qualities, he was satisfied that they would receive the cordial support of the people of this country, and on that ground he asked them to re-elect Lord John Russell to the post of one of their representatives. (Cheers.) Mr. JOHN Dieeoer said he appeared before them to second the nomination of Lord John Russell, whose ad dress to the constituency he held in his hand. Many measure of great importance bad been deferred and post poned for the consideration of the all -absorbing and pa ramount question of the war in which we were involved, and of the best means to bring that war to a successful, an honourable, and a permanent termination. (Hear.) There were many different opinions even on the subject of the war. There were parties who disputed and dif fered as to the means of carrying it on—as to the allies with whom we should be connected—(hear, hear)—and as to the character and the intentions of the statesmen collectively in the Cabinet, and their previous conduct with respect to the Eastern question. Yet there was but one opinion among thinking men as to the honourable, the bold, and manly conduct of Lord John Russell. (Loud cheers, accompanied by the waving of hats.) He appealed to the noble lord's language, not used within these few days past, but used at a very early stage in the discussion of this question—ay, he could appeal even to vet earlier language, adopted by him in the brief but honourable correspondence which he sent to Sir Hamilton Seymour, and in which he maintained the character of an English gentlemen as well as of an English statesman. (Hear.) In his published address to the constituency, the noble lord had very justly stated that we were engaged in a war which would be carried on until we obtain a solid, a durable, and an honourable peace. Well, let them mark the noble lord's words—let them bind him to that declaration —for it was the decla ration which an English statesman ought to make, and which the people of this country ought to applaud and reward. (Hear, hear.) They were told, and would be told again, it might be at some length, that the war in which we were engaged was but a " sham" war. (A. cry of " hear, hear.") Now, he feared that the noble lord would find, from the strenuous efforts that he would have to make, and to support others in making, that it was a very real war. (Hear, and a laugh.) They were told, and very truly as he thought, that the fate of the present Ad ministration depended upon that election, and that the Cabinet would fall to pieces if the noble lord was not re elected. Well, let them remember that, and vote for Lord John Russell accordingly. (Hear.) But thera was another question that might have occurred to them, and it was, " Who were to succeed the present Administra tion ?—(laughter)—who would the Queen have to send for ?" He wished to speak with all respect of gentlemen, present or absent, but he put it to them seriously, who ther they were prepared for the wisdom and the power of an Urquhart Administration. (Cheering, laughter, and hisses.) And now a word, before con cluding, as to that great Power Russia, with which we were at war, and to which, in more respects than a martial point of view,we stood opposed. The noble lord in his address spoke of Russia as a mighty military power, and so no doubt it was, and perhaps (it might I be as the consequence of the other) it was a mighty despotic power as will. It was opposed to all improve ment at home, and lent its aid and support abroad to check the advance of auy other country which medi tated its own improvement and reform. It was a bar barous power as well as a despotic power, threatening the civilization of mankind as well as the liberties of Inations. (A. Voice—What about Austria ?) The best way of destroying all that was bad in Austria was to de feat Russia—(cheers) —which had always been a repres sive and inert power, ready at all times to support oppression and despotism ; and the best and most effec tual course; and ultimately also the course most merciful and beneficial as regarded herself and the l inhabitants of ber country, for us to adopt, would be to punish them and educating them, and thus to introduce civilization among a people who would then no longer stand as Huns land Goths, menacing modern civihzation. (Cheers.) #0 would only now nolt them to roplAco in the douse of Commons the distinguished le; ►dt ir of that assembly, and to renew that mark of their c eafidence which they had shown to him some months ago, and which he had done nothing since to forfeit ; and 1 le trusted the noble lord would return again to a Gove rn ment which ho believed would be supported by the pe , )p;le of England as long as they maintained the cause o f IFreedom, and upheld the honour and interests of the country. (Cheers.) He begged to second the nominat' 'or I of Lord J. Russell. Mr. Sheriff Winn then as ke, l if any person present had any other candidate to pr opose ? A. brief pause then ensued, (hiring which no one ap peared to respond to the invit ation of the Sheriff. Some cries of " Urquhart" were i indeed raised, and in the midst of the noise and confusi on that honourable gentle men was seen to beckon and 1 xeard to request some per son in the body of the hall to come forward and put him in nomination, in order to ent ib le him to claim the right of addressing the citizens. Tile whole assemblage, how ever, remained unmoved alike, I , y his entreaties and his forlorn situation, when Mr. Sheriff WIRE again stepped forward and pro claimed—Gentlemen of the liver y, the Right Honourable Lord John Russell has been pro posed and seconded, and no other candidate being either proposed or seconded, I ask you whether you will elect', and have Lord John Russell as your member? (Loud and prolonged cheer .ing, accompanied by the holding up of hands an d th e waving of hats.) Gentlemen, I now put the question to you, "On the contrary." (Not a hand was upraised nor a hat displaced at this summons, whereupon the worthy Sheriff concluded)—Gentlemen, I declare that Lord John Russell has been duly elected by you to be the citizen to represent you in the present Parliament. (Vehement cheering.) Lord JOHN RUSSELL then presented himself to the meeting, which was the signal for the renewal of voci ferous and prolonged cheering. When silence was re stored, his lordship said :—Gentlemen, I understand that an elector now present wishes to ask me a ques tion, and before I proceed with my address to you, I wish the question to be put, that I may at once answer it. (Hear, hear.) Mr. POTTER (the elector alluded to) then said that he had attended there that day to ask Lord John Russell a question on the subject of church rates. (Hisses.) He had not come there to speak about the war—he was quite sure they could not have a better representative than the noble lord ; but he claimed the right as an elector to put these questions on a matter which the noble lord, so engaged as he was with other great ques tions of state, might possibly have overlooked. (Cries of " put your question.") He held in hand an act passed two years ago, called the Metropolitan Burial Act, which he considered to be a disgrace, and he wished to ask whether the noble lord had anything to do with its pass ing —(a voice, "bosh," and laughter)—and whether he was prepared, in the bill now before Parliament, to re peal the clause which gave to the clergy double the amount of the church rates ? (Hisses and " question.") Had the noble lord modified his views on church rates, and would he support Sir William Clay's bill for the total and unconditional repeal of that obnoxious impost ? Lord JOHN RUSSELL then said—The question that has just been put to me, as I understand it, refers to a bill with respect to burials in the metropolis, which was passed on the Ist of July, 1852. Now, with regard to that bill, I have only to say that I had nothing what ever to do with it ' • that it was introduced by a mem b er of Lord Derby's Government, which was in office at that time, and was passed by means of the influence that that Government possessed. (Hear, hear.) With respect to its provisions I can only say that in any mea sure regarding burials in the metropolis, I will carefully consider the clause of the act which has been referred to, to see whether any modification ought to be made in it. Now, gentlemen, coming to the more important business of this election, I have the honour to stand before you now for the sixth time, after having received your suf frages as one of your representatives—(cheers)—and I may say also that it is the third time that I have had that honour within these two years; so that, with regard to these two years past at least, a provision enacting annual Parliaments would have given me rather fewer elections than I have really undergone. (Laughter.) Now, gentle men, I have appealed to you at this election, having been without office during the greater part of the existence of the present Administration, but having again accepted an office which connects me moreclosely than before with that Administration. I do not mean to detain you with any reference to measures of a domestic character to which I have had frequently to recur on former occa sions. I have stated to you before now that, having been long in public life—having, during that public life, had occasion to form and mature my opinions, I could only vote according to those opinions ; that they might be wrong in some instances, and- right in others, but that I trusted to your generous confidence to appre ciate the motives with which I have acted. (Hear, hear.) And now, gentlemen, I shall proceed to that which is the absorbing question of the present day —so absorbing that measures which I had hoped to forward for increasing and promoting the civil and religious rights of large portions of our coun trymen havebeen rather neglected than considered— have been withdrawn . in deference to public opinion, rather than opposed by parliamentary resistance. But, gentle men, that great question to which I wish to refer is the war in which we are engaged. (Hear, hear.) I will not now refer to that which has been discussed in debates with which you are all, no doubt, familiar, namely, the origin of that war. The present Government endeavoured as long as they could to seek for terms of pacific arrange ment ; and, gentlemen, I believe that in so doing, we were acting in accordance with the opinions of the people of this country. (Hear, hear.) The blessings of peace, which we had enjoyed for nearly 40 years, were not of such trifling value that they were to be lightly thrown away or precipitately abandoned. (Cheers.) It was not, therefore, until we found that the ambition of the Emperor of Russia was not to be satisfied with any moderate concessions which the Sultan of Turkey was prepared to make—that the Czar was determined, in op position to remonstrance, in opposition to proposals of every kind, to retain and keep in his power the territory of his neighbour, that we advised the Queen to declare that she was obliged to take up arms in defence of the ally thus unjustly attacked. (Cheers.) And, gentlemen, in that declaration we had the co-operation and concert of her Majesty's ally, the Emperor of the French— (cheers)—and I trust that this concert upon a great question will lead to a permanent alliance with that great people, our neighbours. who, with ourselves, form the most civilised and the most enlightended nations of Europe. Gentlemen, we know by expe rience the courage and the skill of the French nation, and they know ours ; and, as brethren in arms, I trust we shall display those qualities which we have hitherto displayed in conflict with each other. (Cheers.) But, gentlemen, there were others who were as much interested as England and France in preserving the in dependence of Europe against an ambitious power—l mean the great States of Germany. I believe that while the success of Russia—that while her conquest of Turkey and her occupation of Constantinople=would have been dangerous to England and to France, it would have been absolute oppression to the people,of Germany ; and ac cordingly the people of Germany have felt that this is a question which would not be indifferent to them. The principal Sovereigns of Europe, the Emperor of Austria and the King of Prussia, have sympathised with our people ; and I trust that the war that we are about to carry on will be a war, not of two powers, but of five powers of Europe against the Emperor of Russia. kCheers.) I know there were those who said, "De not give assistance to the Turks." They said so on various reasons and various pretences. Some said the Turks were a people so barbarous and their Government so bad that we ought not to aid them. Gentlemen, I have heard such an argument used in former times, and I be lieve that the intention of that argument was, not to blame the Turks, not to amend their Government, but to abet the designs of the Emperor of Russia. (Loud cheers.) It is easy to say, and it is not for me to deny, the faults—nay, the mal-administration —and in many instances, the cruelties which exist under the Turkish rule. lot this was not a time to discuss any improvement in those matters. The question was, to resist the aggression of Ruisia ; and, I have no doubt, if that aggression is successfully resisted, that the improvement of Turkish institutions and the happiness of the Christian people living under the Sul tan of Turkey will follow from that resistance, and that success. (Cheers.) On the other hand, if the Emperor of Russia were to succeed in his attack, we must recollect that it would be the success of a Government which en deavours to suppress all freedom of thought, to which neither political, or religious, nor any kind of liberty can look for encouragement, and that there would be a deadly power hanging over Europe, and at length at tacking even our own institutions as incompatible with the existence of the monstrous tyranny which at present prevails in that country. It has been said, that if the Turks had been left alone it would have been better for them. That is the very argument used by the Emperor of Russia; he has constantly said, "This is no business of yours : do not you interfere ; only let the Sultan settle his own affairs with me ; let us have a friendly conference together, and we shall no doubt come to a very amicable determination." (Laughter and cheers.) But, gentlemen, we thought—the Emperor of Russia being much the stronger of the two—that that amicable determination could not but be injurious to the Turks ; and we now find that the Turkish Government has most willingly accepted our aid, and that, in instances which I could quote, that aid has been most efficient for that purpose. Gentlemen, I now proceed then to the mode in which this war is to be carried on. And let me remark, in the first place, that it was observed by a member of the House of Commons, and most truly, when we were em kingcboaurld ex p o e n e t t h t i h s o s s v e a r a , d t v h a a n t t i a t g w e s a s w n h o i c t h a h w a a d r a f r t m tendedwhich h w e e r ways, and that an d t . the Trinidad, conquests of c i o s u la ld nd n s, ot s h u e ch a , c f h o i r ev i e n d Jamaica - stance, as amai a l o i k f e Russia, Russia. w h l i c ri h d , e i e f d t , h there r a e r eo ff n e o r n e d e t o o f the m p o a s s o s w i o e n r us, we should accept, and there arenone tn w ha hich th l is a . m dis posedwe to covet. But t here is more have all venerated the glories of Nelson at St. Vincent and of Duncan at Camperdown ; but the victories by which they achieved their fame were victories achieved against enemies who came out into the open sea—(loud cheers) —who met them in a fair fight, and who in that fair fight were encountered by the valour and the prowess of our admirals and our sailors. We have now to deal with an enemy who onoloseo his navy within walls of [PRICE SD. granite -. -(laughter)—who places his ships behind stone walls and batteries bristling with guns, and who never venturea to meet Dundas or Napier in the open sea— (cheers)--and if they did, no doubt these gallant admi rals would be able, in nautical phrase, "to give a good account" of those Russian fleets. (Laughter and cheers.) What they may be able to accomplish, as matters stand, it is not for me, ncr f or any of us, to ' decide. All we know is, that we have given those commands to gallant and skilful admirals —that all that gallantry and skill can do elicv will acco m pl is h— that they will prove them selvea to be worthy sons of England, and that we ought to rest sasfied that that which can be accomplished they will :accomplish, and th at t h at which they will leave undone could not be d one b y human courl, or by human skill. (Loud cheers.) But, gentlemAe we have done that which has not been usual in former wars. We have, at the very commenceme n t o f th e tvar, sent a land army to the defence of our allies. We know that our anilitary - means are far inferio r to. those of th e great coe.tinental monarchies—we know that we d o not call out our 80,000 men or our 100,000 men by the con scription to swell the ranks of our armies, that our armies are slowhy raised, raised from volunteers, raised by vo luntary enrolment, and therefore we never do send armies, and I do not know that the lovers of the consti tution vr4 mid wish that we should send armies of 150,000 or 200,0110 men into the field. But even the army we have sent has already been the meansof furnishing troops to defend a Turkish fortress which was surren dered in the last war to the armies of Russia—l mean the fortress of Varna—and hag'thus -enabled the brave and able commander of the Turkish army, Omer Pacha —(cheers )—to add a considerable reinforcement to his army, wl Lich I trust will enable him to cope with the Russians in the enterprise they are about to undertake. (Renewed. cheers.) Well, now, I have said to you that I think it s.liould be our endeavour to obtain " a durable, a solid, a• ad an honourable peace." Now I should be guilty of the greatest presumption—l should be guilty of a brea ch of the most solemn duty—if I were to say what are - the terms which, in the opinion of her Ma jesty's Government, would make that peace honourable, solid, and. durable. That is a question not merely for her Maki; sty's Government. It is to be decided along with the ally of her Majesty, the Emperor of France ; it is to be considered in conjunction with other powers, if other powers should, as I hope, stand by our side in this conflict for the independence of Europe, But more thAn this. The exact terms of that peace must depend r tpon the fortunes of war—must depend upon the success v. rith which we encounter the embattled legions of Russia t. My hope is, that that war will meet with the success which, from its object and its motive, it de serves ; lDut this I will say, that no insufficient peace ought to be , made ; that we ought not to lay down our arms until we have obtained security for the future— ! (prolonged cheering)—that, having made the great exer tions that; •we have done, that having our eyes open to the designs of Russia, that other nations of Europe having their eyes open likewise, we should be the most silly . of mortals if' we were to sign an insecure peace, which would leave) it to our present enemy to bide his time, until by tho dissensions of other powers, until by the weakness. of some of those powers, he should find a bet ter oppor tuz lay of accomplishing his design. (Cheers.) Let us co naider for a moment what that design is. I give it from no unfair interpretation of that which has been said by the Emperor of Russia himself. It is, that the principalities he occupies and Bulgaria should be held under his protection ; it is that Constantinople itself should not be occupied either by the present Go vernment or by any free Government, which should har bour those who might be considered his enemies. It is, therefore, that Consta n ti no pl e s h ou ld b e, lik e C racow or Warsax v, subject to Russian protection and Russian influences,. I say that such a consummation would be fatal to tl ie liberty of Europe. (Cheers.) I ask you to oppose suck a consummation. I believe that British hearts, British courage, British skill, an d B r i t i s h power are equal to achieve for us, in conjunction with our allies, and in co; aj unction with the sympathies of Europe, and not of Europe. only but of the whole world, that success ; and I earnest'. y pray that God may give the victory to her Majesty's arms for that purpose. (Loud and prolong e d cheers, amidst which the noble lord withdrew.) On the naotion of Mr. Deputy LAKE, a vote of thanks was accorded to the Sheriffs. The Lord. Mayor and Sheriffs then withdrew, thereby indicating that the business of the meeting was con cluded. M r . URQUHART, however, advanced to the front of the platform said a perfect tumult of groans and hisses, mingled vriain some faint cheering, which lasted for some minutes. When the commotion had partially subsided he said—E have only one word to say to you—will you hear it (Shouts of " No, no.") You have carried your election, read you have lost the chance of saving your country. (Uproar and laughter.) The instruments of Russia ar., the statesmen of the Cabinets of Europe; and you have male another tool for the Emperor of Russia in the per corn whom you have chosen as your representa tive.

It is reported to be the intention of her Majesty's Go vernment to take possession of Sitka, and all the other ports in the Pacific belonging to the Russians. Her Majesty's steam-vessel Scourge, Commodore Adams, left Plymouth on Monday afternoon for the coast of Africa, and put into Falmouth on Tuesday. The Minx, tender to the Scourge, made a trial trip and returned to Plymouth Sound on Tuesday. The frigate Indefatigable, 50, Captain Hope, got masts, lower yards, and topmasts on board at Plymouth on Monday, and was taken to the jetty on Tuesday to be rigged. The brix Mariner will go out of harbour at Plymouth on Saturday. The brig Fly is to be fitted as a coal depot at Ply mouth. She was brought to the floating basin on Mon day to have her ballast taken out. The Hermes steam-sloop, paid off on Saturday last, on her return from service on the East India and China sta tion, is ordered to have her defects made good at Wool wich as early as possible, that she may again be brought forward for commission. The Vulcan, 6, screw-troopship, Commander Von Donop, is complete in the shipwrights department, at Portsmouth, and will be ready for service on the 16th. The Powerful, 84, Captain Mansel, at Portsmouth, has completed her internal fitment, and is now ready to leave the basin and receive her armament. Mr. Laing, M.P., Chairman of the Crystal Palace Company, Sir Joseph Paxton, and several members of the Crystal Palace Direction, with the foreign commis sioners who had come to this country to be present at the opening of the Palace, visited Woolwich Dockyard yesterday, and, by order of the Admiralty, were con ducted by the heads of the departments over the factory and the various branches of that great naval depot. After a visit of about two hours' duration, the members of the committee of the Crystal Palace Company embarked in the Dryad .steamboat of the Woolwich Company, en gaged specially for the occasion, and went up the river to Millwall to inspect the Leviathan iron steam-vessel, building by John Scott Russell and Co. She is rapidly progressing ; upwards of 500 feet in length of the keel plates have been laid. The first main kelson, the inner skin of the ship, and a considerable portion of the mid ship section are now in place, and it is confidently ex pected that this large ship will be completed within the time prescribed by the contract—viz., 18 months from December last. Yesterday the Lords of the Admiralty gave notice at Lloyd's that another transport was requii ed to convey troops from the river Thames, Portsmouth, and Cork to the Cape of Good Hope, and then bring troops Lome to Cork. Ships were taken up yesterday by the Admiralty to convey troops from the river Thames to the Mauritius and Ceylon, and from the Thames, Portsmouth, and Cork to Quebec. _ At 8 a.m. yesterday the clipper screw steam transport Tynemouth, of London, commander Lieutenant Adam D. Dundas, from London for Constantinople and Varna, with Captain Grant in charge of 310 of all ranks, exclu sive of officers of the ambulance corps, put into Sheerness with damage, havincr been in collision in Sea Reach with the cutter Galeed, of Salcornbe. Her damage is being made good by the dockyard authorities at Sheerness. The Colossus, 80, having had her stern altered to adapt it to the screw propeller, and having had her bottom cop pered, was taken out of dock at Portsmouth into the fitting basin yesterday afternoon. She was taken under the shears, and received her bowsprit and foremast, and will be completed in masting to-day. She is at once to go round to the steam basin tr receive her boilers and machinery, and get ready for commissioning immedi ately. She is a handsome ship, and though not built for a screw, she bids fair, from her form, to attain to a good speed under steam. She was built at Pembroke in 1848, from the designs of Sir "William Symonds, and is of 2,589 tons burthen. The Locust 3, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, Lieutenant- Conimander Day, was taken out of dock at Portsmouth yesterday into the steam basin. She has a few defects to make good in her machinery, which will be effected with all despatch„ after which she will proceed to the Baltic on gun-boat service. She is a paddle vessel of 284 tons and 180 horse power, built of wood. Tbs Termagant, 24, screw steam-frigate, to which Cap tain the Hon. Keith Stewart was apponted on Tuesday, is in the steam basin at Portsmouth nearly complete in the engineering department. Captain Stewart is brother of the present Earl of Galloway, brother-in-law of the Duke of Marlborough 'and Lord Faversham, and first cousin to Sir James Graham, First Lord of the Admi ralty. He served in the Asia, 84, at the battle of Nava rino, and subsequently in the same ship at Lisbon, then bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Parker ; afterwards in the Stag, 46, on the same station ; and again in the Cornwallis, 74, flag-ship of the Hon. Sir C. Paget, on the North American station. He was advanced to his present rank July, 1842, having entered the navy in April, 1827. NAVAL APPOINTMENTS.

The Carnarvonshire Rifle Corps have completed their second period of 28 days' training, and have been re viewed by Colonel Fernaux, of the Royal Artillery. The various evolutions were gone through with great steadiness and precision, and the firing was quick and regular. The regiment having formed into hollow square, the reviewing officer complimented the officers and men upon their efficiency. The regiment musters 400 strong ; the uniform is a dark green rifle dress, and the weapon used is a two-grooved rifle, with sights ranging up to long distances. The majority of the men are volunteers from the slate quarries, fine active young fellows, some of whom have enlisted into the Guards and the Artiliery, who are recruiting in the county. The Royal Anglesey Militia are now undergoing the usual 28 days' training in the neighbourhood of Beau maris. The regiment musters strong, but a few men being required to fill up the complement. They are ex ceedingly steady and well behaved, and make great pro gress. The regiment is a Light Infantry one, and the new uniforms look well. An excellent baud has been got up, with an efficient band-master. The Essex Rifles Militia, Colonel Lord Jocelyn, now in garrison at the Tower, are to have a g rand field-day in Hyde Park on Saturday. The North Lincolnshire Militia, Colonel Tomline, completes its period of 28 days' training on Monday, when the men will be dismissed. The regiment has been inspected by Colonel Slade, who was extremely pleased at its high state of discipline. The IVL,,rimoutliOlire Militia, 600 strong, is embodied and doing permanent duty, occupying the barracks at Newport. Both officers and men are extremely well pleand with their quarters. HEAL2'II OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. ( F roes the Report of the Registrar-Gemeral. ) The o Ecial report says :—The mortality of London is still high for the season. In the week that ended last Saturday the number of deaths registered was 1,100. In the te m corresponding weeks of the years 1844-53 the average number was 910, which, if raised in proportion to increase of population, becomes 1,001. Hence it ap pears that about 100 persons died last week above what the rate of mortality in previous years would lead to ex pect at the beginning ofJune. The di laths returned weekly since the middle of May have beOn consecutively 1,188, 1,143, 1,093, 1,100. There diod last week from zymotic complaints 306 per sons, a number which is almost exactly the same as that of the preceding week. The deaths from scarlatina, which is at , present twice as fatal as usual, were 68 ; in the previous return they were 72. Within the same time measles has declined from 46 to 31, hooping-cough has risen. from 53 to 63, typhus from 57 to 64, diarrhoea front 22 to 31. Three aged women died on 4th, sth, and 10th. June respectively, of passive diarrhoea, in St. Georcre's 'Workhouse, Little Chelsea. 0 Last week the births of 822 boys and 130 girls, in all 1,625 children, were registered in London. In the nine corresponding weeks of the years 1845-53 the average number was 1,391. MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS.

Forns and others, representing a body to be called the Mexican Guano Company, an exclusive privilege for the exportation of guano from all the coasts and islands belonging to that country, with the exception of three islands in the Pacific known under the name of the Marias. Circulars have accordingly been issued, notifying the conditions on whi c h i t may be obtained, the professed object of the prop r i e t ors b e i ng to leave the trade as open as possible consistently with their own claims for remuneration. The quality of the guano existing on the Atlantic side of the coast has been more thoroughly examined than that on the other, owing to several cargoes having already been taken thence to the United States, as well as a few to Liver pool, and is stated to be entirely distinct from the Peru vian descriptions, its richness consisting of 60 per cent. of phosphate of lime. That which exists on the islands and promontories of the Pacific coast and in the Gulf of California is described as of a more varied character, some parts which are rainless being expected to supply high qualities, while in others the descriptions are in ferior. Thus far, however, there seems to have been no accurate classification of the respective sorts, nor any reliable estimates as to the quantities obtainable. The discovery of' these deposits as regarded the Atlantic por tion is only of recent date. The islands containing the principal amount are called the Triangles, near the coast of Yucatan ; and no knowledge of the circum stance seemed to have been possessed by the Mexican Government until very lately, when, after two American vessels had filled there, one of them, with more than 200 tons on board, was stranded in a storm on a neigh bouring point, and the matt!! was brought t 9 light. Dr. CROLY moved that a petition be presented to the House of Commons against the bill. He said he could not reconcile to his conscience the digging up of th• dead and the sale of burialgrounds for secular purposes. It approached, as nearly as he could conceive, to the crime of sacrilege. The sepulchre, in Scripture, was always regarded as a perpetuity, and never to be dis turbed. When Abraham bought a sepulchre of the sons of Heth, lie insisted that it should be his in fee simple ; and it was the greatest stigma on a king not to be buried in the sepulchre of his fathers. The temple at Jerusalem was a consecrated spot ; the final ruin of the nation was sealed when the temple was desecrated. In 1786 the great burialground, close to the Church of the Inocents, in Paris, was desecrated ; everything was to be sacrificed to public utility, and a cry was raised for making a mar ket•place of it. The dead bodies, the remnants of the millions of HO years, wer e carr i ed to the quarries under the city, and hurled, there without decency. What was the result ? The populace, first shocked, became hardened. In liti,le more than two years the Revolution began, and the first act of the Re volutionists was to desecrate every tomb they could find and 1 - :o tear up the coffins of their Kings. The de cencies of burial were disregarded, and, ,in a few years the nation was involved in the guilt of the denial of God, of immortality, and of religion. The King and the Royal family were " buried with the burial of an ass," and covered with lime to extingush every remnant of their being. (He4r, hear.) He (Dr. Croiy) thought it an in vidious thi ng to reckon the value o f a c h urch b y the number of th e congregation. (Hear, hear.) Christ said, that " where two or three were gathered together, He was in their midst." They mast all come to a time when they would fail ; years would come upon them. Was a man to be degraded because he grew old ? (Hear, hear) We had no right to alienate property once con secrated to God. The cl ergy were consecrated men. People would begin t o as k whether they too could be unconsecrated if it became profitable ? The proprietors of cemeteries would plead the precedent of this bill when it became profitable to build over the ground. It would be said, " Why keep a useless cathedral like St. Paul's on such valuable ground ?" The principle once intro duced would be progressive. (Hear.) Were the utili tarians to be allowed to disturb the bones of Milton in Cripplegate, of Coverdale, at St. Magnus, of Gresh am , at St. Ethelburga's ? (Hear.) The bill was to apply also to Bristol, Chester, Chichester, Exeter, Li ncoln, Norwich, and York—all places with noble monuments. (Hear.) This was a crisis. If we began with desecra tion, the crime would enlarge. The church was in danger. Sects were active. He implored the clergy to consider well before consenting to an act of public desecration. Dr. M`CAut. said, that not being of a poetic turn of mind he could not see the connexion between this bill and the French Revolution. France, at the time re ferred to, was infidel, whereas Christianity now prevailed in this country more than it had ever done since the earliest ages of Christianity. (Hear.) The rev, gentle. man had referred to the destruction of the temple ; but it was destroyed by God himself when it had accom plished his purpose in "putting his name there," and it was laid desolate for the very purpose of spreading Christianity in the Gentile world, and that the great truth might be established that not alone in Jerusalem, but in every place, whosoever should call upon God in truth should be accepted. (Hear.) This was really not a question of principle, but of expediency. Churches had been pulled down before, graveyards devoted to secular purposes, and the bodies removed. The bones of Cover dale now reposed at St. Magnus because they had been removed from a church pulled down to make room for the Royal Exchange improvements. St. Michael's, Crooked-lane, was taken down for the London-bridge ap. preaches, and the statue of William IV. now stood on the site. According to the census, church accom modation was wanted for thousands upon thousands in Shoreditch, Whitechapel, St- George's-in-the-East, and in other parts, and in the city of London district there were 13,000 more sittings than were wanted. The bishop must consent under this bill ; so must the Church Building Commissioners ; it must be deemed by them to be "for the advantage of the interests of religion ;" aid six weeks' notice must be given for the parishioners to make representations to the contrary, if they -could. The Church of England was not to stand stiff and petri fied, like a pillar of salt, but to " know the time of her visitation," and prove herself a living organisation, able to meet the spiritual wants of those committed to her charge. (Hear, hear.) He moved, as an amendment, the meeting approve the principle of the bill. Mr. DAVIS maintained that when clergymen pleaded for a church " where two or three could be gathered to gether," they ought to think of 20,000 or 30,000 or more, with no church in which they could be gathered to gether, and of the responsibility of the London clergy for these thousands. Were the interests of living souls to be disregarded for the sake of keeping up a few cenc taps for the dead ? A_ very long discussion followed. The possibility of old churchyards being being built over was the point chiefly made, and the provisions for the removal of the bodies received some consideration. There was a dif ference of opinion on the propriety of giving the vestry a veto ; it was stated that in small parishes the church glazier, the painter, the carpenter, and other tradesmen employed would be able to prevent a really desirable measure. It was urged that it was not proposed to withdraw, but to transfer to a place where it would be more useful, properly pledged to sacred purposes. Some clergymen insisted that there was work enough for the city clergy if they would reside and go into the courts and alleys; but it was stated that many had no parson age•house, and had not income enough to take one where property was so valuable, though they would have it if this bill passed and two parishes were united. A oity clergyman, who was against the bill, assured the meet ing that on a Sunday morning he had a congregation of nearly 100. Another argued that, as the churches were intended for daily service, on the week days the po pulation of the city was immense, the foundation of the bill failed. Another suggested that 50 years hence the population might come back to the city, and then. there would not be churches enough for them. Eventually Dr. ArCaul's amendment was rejected by 13 votes against 15, and the motion of Dr. Crely carried by 19 to 15. MEDITERRANEAN ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. Yesterday morning a numerous party of noblemen and gentlemen attended on board the Persian, a very elegant steamer of 900 tons bnrthen, belonging to Messrs. Dixon and Co., now lying off Messrs. Kuper and Co.'s, Morden-wharf, East Geeenwick, to witness the coiling on board of an electric telegraph cable, 110 miles long, about to be sent out on Saturday next, for forming communication between Spezzio, in the Gulf of Genoa, to Corsica, from whence a communication will be made with the southern portion of Sardinia—the cable being 20 miles longer than absolutely required. It is most excellently made, and weighs about eight tons per mile, the cost being between 5001. and 6001. per mile. After viewing the process of coiling the cable on board the vessel, visitors were conducted along a staging from the Persian, and the machinery in motion for making the cable was exhibited and explained. Joints in the gutta percha covered wires and the outer iron wires were made, and explanations of the gal vano-meters and apparatus for discovering a fault in the continuity of the electric current given. After this, messages were sent and received by the ordinary double needle instruments through the 110 miles of the cable. The cables were then all joined together, and guns fired ea board the Persian by the telegraph from the factory, through a distance of 660 miles of cable. Upon the return of the company on board the Persian, some curious experi ments were made, of exploding, by electricity, guttaperoha bottles of powder placed under the water, with great suc cess, and one of the bottles, about the size of a common blacking bottle, having accidentally drifted under the steamer, upon exploding, regularly shook the vessel, munch to the astonishment of the majority of those on board. The company, which was only formed about March last, have not only completed the cable to connect Spezain with Sardinia, but are considerably advanced with another cable 150 miles long, which they expect to be ready in August, to extend the communication to Bona , on the African coast—a sum equal to 5 per ce n t. on the capital being guaranteed by the French and Sardinian Govern ments for 50 years. The cable, which is about 14 inch in diameter, and contains 6 wires completely isolated, i s being made at the rate of 21 m i les a ay, the mces of twisting, by what, in consequence of the peculiarity of its rotations, is call e d t h e " Sun and planets" machine, lying extremely curious ; and the works of Messrs. Kuper are well worth a visit by all who can obtain the entrée. The company, a G g o e v r e , r A n l m r . e n ß t r eftotr, the through the pat en tee and man are in exten n s e i g on ot o ia f ti t o h n e lwiniethtotmhealEtan, and the East India Company, for its further extension to Alexandria. SUMMER CIRCUITS OF TBE JUDGES. SOUTH WALES AND CHESTEIi ClRCUlT.—Yesterday the Hon. Mr. Justice Williams, the judge appointed to pro. ceed and hold the ensuing assizes in and for the several counties comprised within the South Wales Circuit, finally appointed the days and places for holding such assize, the learned judge meeting the Hon. Mr. Baron Martin, who proceeds on the North Wales Circuit, at Chester. The following are the days named :—Cardi ganshire, Tuesday, July 11, at Cardigan ; Pembroke shire, Friday, July 14, at Haverfordwest ; Town of Haverfordwest, the same day, at the same pla ce ; Car marthenshire, Tuesday, July 18, at Carmarthen ; Gla morganshire, Saturday, July 22, at Cardiff ; Brecknock shire, Saturday, July 22, at the Castle at Brecon ; R d• n orshire, Wednesday, August 2, at Prest e i gn ; Chestera and City, Saturday, August 5, to meet Mr. Baron Martin. THE GENERAL SCREW STEAM COMPANY.—This com pany aro about to send one of their vessels, the Indi ana, of 1,800 tons, from llavre, via Southampton, to New York on an experi men t a l voyage, previously to the completion of arrangements for establishing a regular monthly line. Supposing the plan to be carried out, the 'Mauritius and the Argo, both also of 1,800 tons, and the Prince, now fitting out, of 2,700 tons, will constitute the fleet. The steam traffic between Havre and New York has hitherto proved remunerative owing to the nature of th e f reight carried, and it is expected that with the economy of screw vessels the results will be still more satisfactory. !
