Amongst the numerous medical and surgical works of the day, we consider that written by Dr. Courtenay on Syphilis and other frequently fatal complaints, to be worthy of the highest encomiums, and justly deserving the serious a tt ent i on of all those persons who may unfortunately happen to be afflicted with the maladies which form the subject of this very interesting publication. The lumi nous views taken of these diseases, together with the importint warn i ngs against excesses, entitle this work to great praise; and we may add, as a further recommendation, that it is written with much delicacy and morality."—laspector and Literary Review.

Alex ander Blaque's sudden death at Malta, reports were indus triously circulated among the Turks that he had been poi soned by the English. The charge was, of course, treated with the contempt it deserved, as unworthy of serious refu tation. It was believed to be one of the many calumnies proceeding from a source already fruitful in them against our national character and policy, which, secretly propa gated by a host of busy emissaries, and addressed to the ignorant and credulous Turks, were intended to counteract the open hostility of the European press. Circumstances, however, have since transpired which indicate that there may have been another motive for this slander besides the mere pleasure of blackening our reputation—circumstances whose concurrent evidence almost amounts to a proof that this unfortunate gentleman was foully dealt with, and point ing as with the finger of Providence to his real assassins. M. Blaque, who held the situation of editor of the Moniteur Ottoman, was known to have possessed in the highest degree the favour and confidence of the Porte, to which indeed his talents and integrity justly entitled him. The whole of this influence, as Russia was well aware, was persever ingly employed to baffle her ambitious designs and to rescue the Turkish Government from her degrading domination her agents were in consequence directed to use all their en deavours to purchase the neutrality, if not the co-aperation of so formidable an auxiliary. The most tempting and brilliant offers were repeatedly made to him in order to shake his fidelity to the Porte, but as uniformly rejected by a man who felt an honourable pride in the influence which they implied, and who was an enlightened enthusiast for the cause and country he had adopted. Finally, on the eve of his departure from Constantinople on a secret mission to the Courts of Paris and London, where it was expected that his eloquence and the information he possessed would produce a powerful impression, these offers were renewed in the most seductive form. He was given to understand that if he would quit the service of the Porte for that of Russia, there was no post or distinction in the bestowal of the latter to which he might not aspire. M. Blaque treated these overtures, as he had done the others, with disdain ; but he has most probably paid dearly for his firmness and devotion. He was accompanied to Malta by his son, a youth of 13 years, and a Greek servant. The latter, who bad formerly been in Russia, has since returned there. The day before bis death M. Blaque wrote to his family, informing them that he was in perfect health and spirits, and had taken a passage in a ship bound to Mar seilles. It appears that afterwards feeling himself slightly indisposed he was recommended by his servant to take some pills, which had been furnished him by a certain homoeopathic doctor, under whose care he had impru dently placed himself while at Constantinople. The effect of these medicines, though, as he imagined, affording him a temporary relief, bad not been that which they were in tended to produce, since under their operation there had been a gradual decay, instead of a restoration of his powers. 'On this occasion, however, the result was as sudden as it was awful—a few hours after he had taken them he was a corpse. During his brief illness nobody attended him but his Greek domestic, who obstinately refused to ad mit his son into his apartment. The burial of M. Blaque, it appears, was as sudden as his death. He was hur ried to his grave the next morning, and his servant, hav ing thus completed his work, returned to Constantinople. Both he and the homoeopathic doctor have since ab sconded. Both have retired into Russia. We ought perhaps to add, that the starving condition of the lat ter, and his scanty practice in his profession, marked him out, like Shakspeare's apothecary, as an instrument for desperate men, when, as he says, mischief enters into their thoughts. Such are the circumstances which I have deemed it necessary to detail thus minutely, and which, I think, prove pretty clearly that if M. Blaque were really poisoned, the English Government at least were not his murderers ; neither could they have any intelligible motive for such an act. It is not so, however, with another Cabinet, who, with the inducement, it is to be feared, may not want the disposition, judging at least from its character, composed for the most part of political adventurers, without country or principles, and whose policy, directed to the ends of the most selfish ambition, is perfectly indifferent about the means. The same book from which their Machiavellian arts are otherwise derived will, I believe, sanction the use of drugs on an emergency. At any rate, if they should scruple to employ them themselves, it is the curse of such Cabinets to be surrounded by " Slaves that take their humour for a warrant To break within the bloody house of life, And on the winking of authority To understand a law." DISGRACEFUL PROCEEDING. An event occurred on Thursday last. in Gloucester, which has given rise to a good deal of conversation, and is certainly by en means creditable to some of the parties con cerned. A sweep, a diminutive urchin, about ten years of age, was sent up a chimney at the Talbot Inn, about nine o'clock in the morning, and, for the purpose of diminishing his size to suit the capacity of the flue, he was stripped entirely naked. Having remained up the chimney for a very considerable period, it was thought, as he was of ra- . ther a morose disposition, that he was continuing there unnecessarily and from stubbornness, and another lad was also sent up after him. Whether the supposition was in the first place correct, it is hard to determine ; but as he would not, or could not descend, after a lapse of some hours, a cord was attached to his legs, and several at tempts were made to drag him down by force, but with out effect, and the cord breaking, a stronger one was substituted, but with the like success. A large quantity of brimstone matches it is said about three-penny worth—were then ignited, and held burning up the flue, we suppose with the view of making his abode uncomfortable and causing him to come down ; but the consequence of such a foolish and inhuman proceeding was far more likely to be to deprive the unfortunate creature of his existence ; that that awful result did not take place is even more astonishing than that men should be found in these days to resort to such a disgraceful and brutal expe dient. But this is not all. A ladder was next procured reaching to the top of the chimney, from whence several buckets of water were poured down upon the miserable little prisoner in the flue ; and a pole was thrust down to discover his position, and with tolerable force, as it would seem from the numerous protuberances afterwards discovered upon the poor child's head. These mild and gentle efforts were con tinued at intervals through the day till nine o'clock in the evening, accompanied, it is fair to say, with persuasives in the promise of bribes to induce him to descend by fair means. By this time a large crowd had as sembled in the neighbourhood, and, we are heppy to say, that among the number were some more sensible and humane individuals than those we have before alluded to, and they insisted that attempts should be made by opening the chimney from the outside to liberate the child, who, it was began to be apprehended, might be dead, as he had not been heard to speak for some time. Masons were ac cordingly sent for, and about ten o'clock at night the poor little sweep was found firmly jammed by the head and shoul ders in the brick-work of the chimney. Having been in such a situation, and subjected to such treatment as we have described, and perfectly naked, for thirteen hours, it was needless to state that he was in a most pitiable state of debility. He was washed in warm water, when several ex coriations were discovered on his back and shoulders, and the skin rubbed off his ears and other parts of his head, which was also covered with bumps. He was taken home, and a surgeon sent for, and it is with some surprise we state that, though very ill, he is not considered to be in danger of his life.--Gloucester Journal. POPULATION OP SCOTLAND.—The population tables constructed by Parliamentary authority for every shire in Scotland contain many important circumstances regarding each parish, and exhibit an increase of inha bitants in every county from 1801 to 1831. The augment ations in the number of inhabitants have taken place chiefly in commercial and manufacturing districts—in great cities and large towns—and in the counties where these towns are situated. I n the county of Mid-Lothian, compre hending the city of Edinburgh, the increase in 30 years is 78} per cent. ; in Lanarkshire, comprehending the city of Glasgow, the increase in the same period is 116 per cent. ; in Ayrshire, 72 per cent.; and in Renfrewshire, compre hending Paisley and Greenock, 71 per cent. The total population of these four districts in 1831 amounted to 814,662 persons, and we might naturally suppose that this aggregate population consisted of 407,331 males, and the same number of females ; but in fact, there is an excess in these four counties of 52,856 females, the ratio being 464 males, and 534 females. This disproportion of the sexes, or . difference between the numb er o f ma l es an d females, chiefly exists in th e grea t t owns a b ove men ti one d, a nd in districts where manu f ac t ur i ng an d commerc i a l establish ments are situated ; but in agricultural counties, where there are no manu f actures and no large towns, t h e b a l a nce is kept even.

Mr. Semple, on his arrival, stated that the infant was full grown, and from experiments lie had made he was quite satisfied that it had been born alive and mur dered—the frontal bone was contused, and there was coagu lated blood upon the brain ; such injuries must have been done in life. The Jury returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown." MAJOR SKINNER'S JOURNEY OVERLAND TO INDIA.—Major Skinner commenced his " Journey" by a cruise in quest of a " Bon-enfant," but was disappointed. We are more successful, having found one in Major Skinner, whose bonlionimie, or rather bon-enfanterie, is truly inex haustible. We have never rattled over two volumes, and an immense quantity of land and water, with more unalloyed zest than with our gallant companion of the " Young Buffs" and whether he be speculating on the march of civilization' or the pace of a jackass in the mud of Alex andria—musing on Mount Carmel, or picking coprolites in the garden of Elias—swimming torrents, coddling kids, or wrestling with " Egypt's plagues"—whether at Jerusalem or Bagdad—on the deck or the desert—the gaiety, shrewd ness and companionable qualities of our quaint traveller never desert him. It would be a waste of time, and, still more, a waste of space, to say more of a journal which we see has supplied paragraph upon paragraph to the papers, and which everybody reads.---United Service Journal.

The Directors being satisfied that steam tugs and lighters will give a certainty and expedition to the conveyance beyond the power of sail ing vessels to accomplish, are taking steps to supply them ; and as the deld of conveyance of the dock land s t o th e Company cannot now, we presume, t a k e many days in com pletion, we shall soon see the sea-wall and embarkment for the first dock site in active progress. During the last week a large shipowner of Liverpool, a shipowner of London, who is also a proprietor of West India property, and a third gen tleman, one of the Manchester manufacturers, arrived here to inspect the port, and satisfy themselves as to its commer cial ca pabilities. The result of their investigation led them to declare their determination to give the Dock Company their most cordial support. This decision of these competent judges, so deeply interested in the question, must be highly gratifying to the Directors and Shareholders of the South ampton D ocks. —Hampshire Advertiser. Mr. T. Gardiner, at Belfast, a gentleman, well known in the scientific world, has discovered a method of producing sound sleep without the use of medicines or opiates of any kind. Mr. Gardiner has tried his method on many persons, who had previously suffered much from want of rest, with the fullest s uccors.—Belfast paper. Last night a Coroner's inquest STIRLING and a highly respectable New Brompton, to inquire relative to Hammond Jones, aged 43, a miniature paint who died from the effects of an overdose of laudanum. Matilda Besser, niece to the deceased, was on a visit to her uncle, who resided at No. 44, Brompton Row. The deceased was a married man, and had a large family. He suffered much from attacks of rheumatism, for which he took laudanum. He was not of sober habits. On Satur day morning, about seven o'clock, Mrs. Jones called wit ness. She was in the bed-room, where the deceased was lying on the bed, and to whom she was giving warm water. He was very drowsy, and perfectly sensible. Mrs. Jones then showed witness a phial which had contained laudanum and which she had discovered in the kite.'wn. It was empty. Mrs. Jones in consequence sent her daught:r to Mr. M‘Ma nue, surgeon, to know what quantity had b€, ^ n sent. The answer returned was that it held - a great deal too much, and they hoped he had not taken it all. The daught,-r brought back some medicine—an emetic. In half an hour's time, Mrs. Jones being much alarmed, sent her daughter a second time. Mr. M'Manus's shopman then came, and ordered a draught. On leaving, he directed that the deceased should have strong coffee and be kept awake. In the afternoon Mrs. Jones sent again, when similar directions were sent by Mr. M‘Manus, who, with his shopman, came to see the deceased about seven o'clock at night, and who ordered vinegar and water to be administered. About twelve o'clock at night Mr. Jones sent for Mr. Glen, a medical gentleman, who gave hopes of the deceased's recovery, as he had taken the laudanum so long. He ordered medicine. The deceased gradually became reduced, and died about seven o'clock on Sunday morning. By the Jury—The deceased, on being questioned upon the quantity he had taken, observed that he did not know he had taken all the laudanum, but if the bottle was empty he supposed that he Lad. On the deceased finding that he was not likely to live, he stated that he had not taken it to commit self-destruction. He had a desire to live. The phial, which was of the two ounce size, was pro duced. It was labelled "- poison." Verdict—" That the deceased destroyed himself, being at the time in a state of temporary mental deratwement." Yesterday, at one o'clock, an inquest, which dicr not ter minate until the evening, was held before Wm. CARTER, Esq., Coroner for Surrey, at the sign of the Waterloo Arms, George-street, Camberwell, upon the body of Wm. Henry Blake, aged 19 years, who, in order to commit suicide, swallowed upwards of half an ounce of arsenic, afterwards opened a vein in the left arm, and subsequently hanged himself. The deo, ised was the ton of a respectable trades man residing in Camberwell, but did not live with his father, and the only cause which can be assigned for his commit- tin.. * such an extraordinary and resolute act of suicid e , i s his having formed a very ardent attachment to a young fe male, living as housemaid in the service of Mr. Arnold, a surgeon, residing in Camden-row, Peckham. John Morgan, a gardener, lodged at No. 24, Waterloo street, and ha known the deceased from his infancy. His parents were highly respectable, and be had two uncles, men of independence, residing at Brighton. About a month since the deceased went to Brighton, and he did not return until Thursday night last, after witness had retired to bed. The deceased, when out of a situation, lodged with witness, and slept in the same room. He undressed himself on the night in question and got into bed, but im mediately after was seized with a violent vomiting fit, and was obliged to get out again. He appeared very ill, but witness considered that he might have been drinking, and the sickness was the effects of the liquor. Upon witness getting up in the morning, he (witness) asked him how he was, and he replied, " I think a little better." Witness at that time had no idea that he had taken poison. At eight o'clock witness went to the deceased's mother's to break fast, and upon inquiry after him, Mrs. Blake stated that she had not seen him, and was not aware that he had returned from Brighton. She immediately went to see after him, but had not been gone above ten minutes when she returned and said that she had knocked several times at the bed room door, could get no reply, and that the door was locked. Witness then went, and after knocking and calling several times to the deceased, and receiving no answer, pro cured a ladder, entered the room at the window, and disco vered the deceased hanging ; his neckerchief was tied tightly round his neck, and fastened to the bottom railing of the bedstead. The Foreman—ln what position did you find the body? Witness—The limbs were drawn together, and the feet were within an inch of the floor. His tongue, which was very black, was hanging out of his mouth. CORONER—Do you think that he was at all intoxicated when ho went to bed ? Witness—l did at the time, but now lam confident he was not. He was always considered a very sober and steady young man, and was greatly re spected by all his friends. CORONER—Do you know anything of the attachment he had formed? Witness—l know that he was excessively fond of a young woman, and he had called upon her imme diately upon his return to town. The witness added, that the deceased had formerly been in the employment of Mr. Arnold, and while there had formed an attachment for the servant girl. He was always of a cheerful disposition : but on Thursday night witness thought that he appeared dull, which he attrilmted to his being out of a situation. Heath, the beaclle, produced to the Jury a paper con taining nearly half qn ounce of arsenic, on which was written in large letters, " arsenic, poison, one 0z.," and also two locks of light brown hair, which had been found upon the person of the deceased. The hair had been carefully wrapped up in paper, and deposited in his breast-pocket. The witness also produced a publican's pint not, at the bottom of which was a strong sediment of arsenic. The CORONER—Do you know to whom this hair be longed ? Witness—The young woman at Mr. Arnold's. I have seen her and had a conversation with her. On Friday morn upon hearing of the catastrophe, she came to see the body of the deceased—she fainted away, and has kept her bed ever since. CORONER—Very likely they had a quarrel on Thursday evening. The Beadle stated that the young woman had told him that he had called upon her very late, uvd she was so busily employed that she could not attend to hiL I. This circum stance, no doubt, preyed greatly upon his mind. Several of the Jury said that there appears l no decisive evidence to show that the deceased was of uns,lund mind. A more determined and extraordinary act of self-destruc tion bad, perhaps, never been heard of. The Jury-room was then cleared of strangers, and the Jury, after consulting together for some time, returned it verdict, " that the deceased had destroyed himself, but ast to the state of mind he was in at the time there was not sufficient evidence for them to determine upon." The Co roner granted his warrant for the interment of the body. MURDER.—On Friday an inquest was held before Mr. Curry, at Liverpool, on the body of Diana Culberson, the wife of a mariner, who was lulled by her husband. The husband, who was immediately taken into custody, is about 50 years of age ; the wife was 37. The deceased and her husband lodged at No. 2, Bispham-street. It appeared from the statement of the witnesses, that they were both very much in the habit of drinking, but the deceased was the greater drinker of the two. They were also in the con stant habit of quarrelling, when blows passed between them. The deceased was in a state of great intoxication the whole of Wednesday, and at night came home quite drunk, and could scarcely stand. The prisoner wished her to go to bed, but she refused to do so, and used very foul language. The prisoner was advised to let her lie on the floor till she came to her senses, but, being greatly excited, he struck and kicked her, and pushed her outside the door into the street. Urged by the entreaties of the people outside, the prisoner dragged the deceased into the house again, when he again kicked her, and jumped on her severartimes. Sonic per sons exclaimed, " For God's sake, John, be quiet, or you'll kill the woman ;" and he replied, " he did not care if he was hanged for it." She was then removed to a room up stairs, and died soon after. The medical gentleman who examined the body stated that four of her ribs were broken on the right side, one of which had perforated the lungs. The pri soner said the deceased had behaved very bad towards him for the last three years, and he should have gone to sea if she had not pawned his clothes. She was in the constant habit of getting drunk, and abused him dreadfully when in that state. The jury returned a verdict of Wilful Murder against Culberson, and he was committed to R6chdale gaol for trial. ROBBERY AT EARL MORAY'S.—A most bare faced attempt at robbery was committed on Thursday at ternoon, at the residence of the Earl of Moray, Wil loughby House, Suffolk-square. Shortly after the cloth had been laid for dinner, a man, dressed like a common labourer, entered the room, and during the absence of the footman pocketed sundry silver spoons, ladles, forks, &c., in all 28 pieces of plate, with which he was making off when he was seen by the lady's maid, who immediately raised the alarm. His Lordship's butler hereupon instantly ran up stairs, and followed the thief, who was now escaping with his booty, but was overtaken near Suffolk Church, when all the stolen articles were found upon his person. The man, whose name is Thomas Bennett, is the son of a carpenter of that name residing in the Bath Road ; he was yesterday brought up before the Magistrates, by whom, the case being clear against him, he was committed to take his trial at the next Assizes.—Lord Moray's steward, Mr. Jackson, was bound over to prosecute.—Cheltenhanz Looker-on. On Thursday the chain of the machine on Tarys Mountain gave way, and let the carriages fall. One of them struck a poor man named Hughes, and dashed his brains out, and mutilated William Pritchard so dreadfully that lifexpired in a few hours.—North !Vales chronicle.
