To such, among others, this Essay addresses itself; and by its perusal many questions may be satisfactorily adjusted that admit of no appeal even to the most confidential friend."—Stafford Gazette. "Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the medical profession, has euahled the writer to prove that there are concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the mere routine practitioner would never dream o f fl u di ng them ; traceable to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and fatal springs of domestic misery, and premature mertalßy."—Wakedeld Journal.

The Committee of Management, in acquainting their Shareholders that the necessary preparations are being made to prosecute this un dertaking in the next session of Parliament, have also the satisfaction of stating, that while considerable engineering improvements will be made in the line, the main features which obtained for it the favour able report of the Board of Trade, will be preserved. The Committee are in negotiation with the London and Birmingham Railway Com pany and the Birmingham Canal Company, for the construction of the portion of the main line from Birmingham to Wolverhampton, on the banks of the Canal, the result of which will be advantageous to the shareholders in the saving of cost and distance on this portion of the line; the whole line will also be constructed with the additional assistance and superintendence of Mr. R. Stephenson. The Committee have also determined upon the construction of a branch from the main line to the mining district of Coaibrook Dale, in connexion with other projected railways, and also in extending the main line from Shrewsbury to join- a railway which has been pro. jetted by the Shrewsbury, Oswestry, and Chester Compay, to Welsh pool and Newtown. Full powers will be taken in the new Parlia mentary contract and subscribers' agreement for these purposes, and to undertake other branches and extensions, which the Committee have in contemplation, with a view to ensure a profitable return to the proprietors. The subscribers' agreement and contract, requisite for complying with the Standing Orders of Parliament in the next session, will lie for signature at the Company's office, from Monday, the 7th of July, until Saturday, the 19th, after which they will be transmitted to the Company's agents in the country. The Committee are happy to be able to state that the local interest in favour of this railway continues unabated ; and, as far as they can at present form a judgment, they are satisfied that no further de posit will be required for prosecuting the Bill in the next session of Parliament. -----..

GREAT COUNTY DOWN, BELFAST, NEWRY, and WARRENPOINT RAILWAY. The attention of the public is invited to the fact that the papers connected with the above Railway, required to be deposited in the proper office by the Act for the Registration of Joint-Stock Companies, have been examined this day, and it is found that out of the long list of names put forward in the prospectus, as forming the Provisional Committee, only five persons have signed either the promoters' list or any other obligatory document ; and the only registration at all made in relation to the above Company Is "for making a railway from Belfast (the county of Down), by Downpatrick, to Newry and Warrenpoint, with branch to Banbridge." It will thus be seen net the great bulk of the noblemen and gen tlemen whose names are so ostentatiously paraded have no stake or responsibility in the undertaking, and it is more than questionable whether their names have been inserted with their authority.

The following is the copy of a letter received at the Admiralty yesterday : " Lloyd's, 30th June, 1845. " Sir,—l have much pleasure in communicating to you, for the information of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, that the Sandwich, Clunn, which arrived in the river this afternoon, from Sr. John's, Newfoundland, sailed thence 7th instant, at six P.M., and the master reports that he had not heard of the loss of the Apollo until he reached the office of Messrs. Robinson and Brooking. " I annex a copy of a statement received from those gentlemen. " I have the honour, &c. (Signed) " W. DOBSON. " Captain W. A. B. Hamilton, R. N., Admiralty. " Captain William Clunn, of the brig Sandwich, arrived in the river this afternoon, has stated to Messrs. Robinson and Brooking that he sailed from St. John's, Newfoundland, on the evening of the 7th instant, six P.M., and that he heard no report of the loss of the Apollo there, nor until he reached the office of Messrs. Robin son and Brooking. " 2, Alderman's-walk, June 30,1845.'' GREAT RUNNING MATCH FOR FIFTY POUNDS.- Yesterday the foot race between Openshaw (of Bury) and Cook (the Greenwich cowboy), two well known runners, came off at the Rose. mary Branch grounds, at Peckham. The distance contested was ten miles, and the affair attracted a large assemblage of persons. In betting Openshaw was the favourite. The ground was measured and other preliminaries arranged, when the start was effected; both men rattled away at a quick pace, and covered the first mile in five minutes, ten seconds. They continued at their match and per formed the fourth mile in twenty-two minutes and ten seconds, Cook being at a lead of forty yards,' and half the contesting distance was accomplished by Cook in thirty minutes and fifteen seconds, and in 120 yards advance; at the seventh mile Cook appeared to relax his speed, and Openshaw made ground. Both men appeared distressed at the eighth mile, but exerted every effort for the goal, and at the turn of the ninth mile Cook was at a good lead, and obviously had winning certain. His opponent struggled, but without avail, and Cook ran in an easy winner, amidst the cheers of his friends. The ten miles of ground was run over by the winner in 68 minutes, 35 seconds. Money was circulated freely, and a large amount was transferred on this occasion. Dartmouth is likely to redeem itself from the dis grace of the last contest. Mr. Moffatt is secure. The Tories have one Captain Pidding helping them indirectly; and one Mr. Princeps, standing forward as a Tory candidate. Mr. Moffitt will beat them both. ABINGDON.—The new Attorney-General, notwith standing the haste in which, last night, a new writ was moved for Abingdon, :will not walk over the course unopposed. General Caulfield will be the Liberal candidate, and will contest the seat %an old Whig, opposed to all new religious endowments. The &astituency numbers about 330 electors, of whom the Reformers count two• fifths in their interest, a fourth of the constituency being untested and doubtful. Sir F. Thesiger has been hitherto unopposed; but it is doubtful whether the majority can be polled in approval of the recent Irish policy of the Government. The Dissenters are strong in the borough, and some of the former par tizans of the Attorney-General, it is said, are resolved to remain neutral.—Chronicle. PENINSULAR AND ORIENTAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY.—On Saturday the Directors of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company gave a grand banquet, at the Albion Tavern, Aldersgate.street, to celebrate the opening of the direct line of monthly steam communication by means of the Com pany's ships between this country and China. A special invita tion was appropriately sent to Sir Henry Pottinger, and upwards of 100 guests assembled to meet that distinguished gentleman and to testify their interest in the success of this truly great and na. tional undertaking.

The first one that struck the bed of the Thames was the Richmond. She was followed by the Era, and as the others came up they grounded also. The Childe Harold and the Lalla Rookh, which run between Chelsea and Kew, were both stopped. One was on her way to Kew with two hundred passengers on board; the other, with a similar freight, was proceeding towards London. Steamer after steamer, filled with people, came down from Hampton Court, Twickenham, Richmond, and Kew, and at last there were ten vessels aground.

Morning .. 41 minutes after 11 I Evening .. 0 minutes after 0 clauses in the Railway Clauses Consolidation (Scotland) Bill were, after a short conversation, agreed to. The Irish Banking Bill was read a second time, pro forma, on an understanding that the discussion was to be taken on Thursday. Oa the motion lot • going into Committee, The Duke of RICIMOND brought up the report of the Committee on the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway Bills, and their Lordiships adjourned. The Commons met'; at Four o'clock. A new writ was ordered for Abingdon, in the room of Sir F. TUMOR/ t, who has accepted the office of Attorney-General._ In answer to Sir El. HATES, Sir J. GRAHAM said that the Government did nut require any additional powers to put down the disturbances in Wicklow, Cavan, and Fermanagh. TI to Right Hon. Baronet stated, that he was convinced th; it those disturbances were not con nected with either riJligion or politics. On the motion for going into Committee on the Irish Colleges Bill, Mr. SMITH O'BnrEN opposed the motion, on the ground that the measure was iu opposition to the wishes of the Irish p pople. Sir JAMES GRAHAM expressed a hope that the Bill would be allowed to go into Committee, without any further discussion of its principles. Mr. O'CoNNELL wv,uld not delay the going into Com mittee by any lengthened observations. He protested against the measure fa:s irreligious, and as opposed to the sentiments of the Rosman Catholic bishops of Ireland, There was a strong feeling in Ireland against the Bill. He should take a ditision in Committee on an early clause, not from any /tope of success, but out of duty to his conscience and his country. Lord JoUN Russrla, considered that if it passed in opposition to the hierarchy of Ireland the measure would be useless, and if it came out of Committee in its present state it ought not to pass into a law. The House then revolved itself into Committee. On the first clause being read, proposing that.loo,ooo/. be appropriated for the erection of three colleges, appor tioned in sums of 33,3331. 6s. Bd. respectively, Lord J. RUSSELL raoved that in line 17 of the clause. the word.; be inserted " including the building of the halls hereinafter mentioned," and that the words "not exceeding 33,3331. 65.. Bd. for each such college," be left out. Sir JAMES GRAHAM opposed the amendment as at variance with the principle of the Bill, inasmuch as it introduced the principle of religious education. A long discussion ensued, and eventually the amend ment was negatived by a majority of 75. Clauses 2 to 13 were then, after discussion, agreed to, and the Chairnan ha ring reported progress, obtained leave to sit again this d a y. The other orders a the day were thea disposed of, and the House adjourned at half-past One o'clock. The accounts from. Protestant Ulster are of a very distressing and alarraing character. In the county of Cavan the law is set :at defiance, an extensive system of outrage has been organised, many houses have been rubbed of arms and money, and the inhabitants subjected to all the hardships and injuries usually in flicted by lawless banditti. According to a memo rial addressed to the Lord Lieutenant, by Lord FARNHAM, the Deputy Lieutenant of the county, and thirty-eight magistrates, describing the disturbed state of the district, these depredators are considered to be Roman Catholics, and fears are entertained that the indignation excited among the Protestant population by their atrocities will be visited upon Catholics indis criminately. It is further stated, that the respectable inhabitants professing the Catholic faith have done every thing possible to suppress the outrages, that they are filled with alarm and, terror, and that the Roman Ca tholic bishop and clergy are as anxious as the other well-disposed persons in the county that a stop should be put by vigorous measures to such a deplorable state of things. They therefore urge upon Lord HEYTESBURY the absolute necessity of putting in force the powers vested in the Government, and express their conviction that the existing laws aro not adequate to afford pro tection to life and property. These outrages, of course, must be put down with a strong hand, the law must be enforced, and life and property protected ; but we believe the existing laws are sufficiently strong for that purpose. If 'the Catholic clergy, the respectable portion of their flocks, and the whole Protestant population, with the in agis trates, and military and police, act with honesty of pur pose and impartiality, the lawless multitude would soon be brought to punishment, but we regret to find that certain of the Orange party are not inclined to show such a disposition, and are resolved to protect themselves—in other words, to take the law into their own bands, and re-organise those in stitutions so dete's - ted by Catholics—the Orange lodges. This is not the way to restore peace or settle religious differences ; on the contrary, such a step will only add fuel to the flame, and render the north of Ire land uninhabitable for civilised beings. If the Legisla ture, therefore, interfere at all, the party processions must be put down, and impartial justice be meted out to Protestants and Catholics alike. Distress and hunger, caused by want of employment, are the real sources of these evils, and while there are from two millions to three millions of inhabitants willing to work, but unable to find masters to engage them, there must be an incessant recurrence of such lawless scenes. Let Mr. O'CoNetexi. do his duty, let him urge on the clergy of the people the absolute necessity of repressing outrage and restoring tranquillity, and with the aid of the Government, strengthened as it must be by their present conciliatory measures, something like security might be established, and employment on public under takings be obtained for the starving population. Madrid journals of the 23d of June announce a fact which shows that the financial crisis could no longer be warded off. The bank of San Fernando had officially announced in the Gazette that the Directors had come to the resolution of refusing discounts of every description, including even the acceptances of the bank itself. This resolution, one of the papers states, can only have been dictated by the knowledge of some grave and mysterious event. It appears the bank is abundantly supplied with money, but owing to the exten sive and alarming speculations in the funds lately, it had re solved on this dangerous alternative to avoid a greater cala mity. The Gazette also publishes the regulation for levying the new income-tax of 300,000,000 reals (3,000,0001,, Th e funds nevertheless continued firm. The Three per Cents. closed at 32 9-16 for cash, and 32i at 60 days; and the Five per Cents, at 21i at 60 days. The French Chamber of Deputies is now getting through the business of the session at railroad speed. In the sitting of Saturday, in less than four hours, they voted 58,000,000 f. (2,300,0004), nearly the whole of which sum is to be ex pended in public works, such as improving the harbours of Toulon, - Port Vendres, Granville, Morlaix, Boulogne, Calais, Dunkirk, and a few other places. For Boulogne the sum voted was 450,000 f. ; Calais, 300,000 f. ; and Dunkirk, 1,300,000 f. The estimates altogether amount to the large su►n of 1,434,439,406 f. (57,400,0001.) According to accounts from Algiers, of the 22d June, ABD-EL-KADER was still within the French frontier, waiting only for an opportunity to renew his attacks. The Constitutionnel publishes a rumour relative to the marriage of the Queen of SPAIN, which appears little entitled to credit. France, it says, will consent to her marrying a Prince of Coburg, brother of the King of PORTUGAL and the Duchess of NEMOURS, and England for this complaisance will not object to a marriage between the Duke of MoNT FENSIEn and the QUEEN'S sister. Queen ISABELLA, ac cording to the same journal, is in very bad health, and had been confined to her bed for three days at Barcelona. Indeed, there is every probability that her sister will succeed to the throne. No business was done in the funds at TORTONI'S on Sunday. The following are the quotations of shares on the Lyons Bourse, June 26 :—Avignon and Marseilles Railroad, 9801, end of June; Paris and Orleans, 1,173 f., ditto; Paris and Rouen, 1,035 f., ditto; Orleans and Vierzon, 727 f., ditto; Orleans and Bordeaux, 645 f., ditto; Boulogne, 585 f, ditto; Montereau, 526 f., ditto. Several articles and letters in type—among others two about Westminster Hall—are unavoidably postponed, for want of room. INDIA AND CHINA. In a second edition of the Morning Herald we find extracts from the Bombay and Calcutta papers, brought by the Over land Mail. Their dates are Bombay, the 20th of May, and Calcutta, May 7, with intelligence from China to the 20th of March. The Victoria steamer, with the mail, ar rived at Suez on the 11th ult., twenty-two days from Bombay, bringing thirty-two passengers. She was dis patched eleven days in advance of the usual time in con sequence of the monsoon. British India remains perfectly tran quil ; the affairs in the Punjaub are still in a very unsettled state ; Sinde was healthy --at least we infer the fact from the silence of the journals that faithfully report every symp tom of illness and everything that tells against Sir C. Napier. Akbar Khan had given up all thoughts of attacking Peshawur, and the princes on the west of the Indus had taken such alarm at the military operations of the gallant Napier and his little gallant army, that they had written to Dost Mabomed, entreating him to prevail on the British authorities not to molest them. Furlough had been granted to six regiments of Bombay native infantry, each of which had about 200 men absent on leave--the best proof of the tranquillity of the country. The news from China is without interest, and we find nothing in the money or stock markets that require notice. Sir Henry Hardinge was still at Calcutta, and the Company'd dominions supply no new intelligence wliateyer. NG, .JULY 1, 1845. MONEY. and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

Parties who are called upon in this country to aid such of the unfortunate inhabitants of Quebec as have been deprived of their homes by the dreadful conflagration, must not sup pose but that the citizens whose property escaped the ravages of the fire had used all proper exertions to relieve the suf ferers. Besides subscribing a large amount, lodgings, tents, provisions, &c., had been furnished, a guard put over the property found, and other judicious arrangements made; and it is sincerely to be hoped that there will be no backward ness here. Many of the leading mercantile firms had sub scribed most liberally at Quebec, and the Bank of British North America gave 2501. An important arrival of emigrants of the better class is noticed in letters from Montreal-viz., 247 English, all from the counties of Devon and Cornwall, and fine healthy-looking agriculturists, all persons of small capital, and described as being just-the sort of men to do well in Canada. They were all bound for Upper Canada, and it was believed that it was their intention to settle in the neighbourhood of Coburg. We are sorry to learn by the last accounts from New foundland, that the seal fishery this spring has been more disastrous than almost any ever rememliered on the coasts of that island, so far as the catch had been hitherto reported ; and a general gloom pervaded the trade of the community, looking at the vast amount of wealth which had been em barked in the speculation, and the limited returns which so far had been made for it. The public Funded Securities have been without alteration to-day, Consols for the opening having realised 98% to 99, but the premium on Exchequer-bills has further declined to 555. and 525. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 102 to 102%, and the Three per Cents. 99% to 99 1 4. Bank Stock has been at about yesterday's value. The Foreign Bonds are heavy. The value of Spanish Five per Cents. have been down to 27% %; and of the Three per Cents. to 39% and 39. The interest on the home Three per Cents, is to be payable in London as well as at Paris and Madrid. Portuguese Old Stock has been at 84. Mexican Bonds have been steady at 36% %. Dutch Two-and- a-Half per Cents. are 62 1 4:%. For Railway Shares there is more inquiry, and prices have rather improved in many instances. Brighton, South- Eastern, Croydon, &c., are quoted higher. London and York are lower. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.. (From the Official List.) 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities 991,E 14 New 3 1 % per Cent.

The following judges ware also in at tendance :—The Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, Mr. Baron Parke, Mr. Justice Patteson, Mr. Justice Williams, Mr. Justice Coltman, Mr. Justice Maule, Mr. Justice Wightman, Mr. Justice Cresswell, Mr. Justice Coleridge, Mr. Baron Alderson. Mr. Baron Rolfe, and Mr. Baron Platt. HATFIELD V. PHILLIPS. Their Lordships gave judgment to-day In this writ of error without calling upon the counsel for the defendant in error. Their Lordships ordered the judgment of the Court below to be affirmed with costs. DiRLEY V. TILE QUEEN. The arguments in this case occupied their Lordships the whole day. ROLLS' COURT.-( THIS DAY.) His Lordship the Master of the Rolls sat in his Court in Chan• eery-lane to-day, and heard unopposed petitions and short causes. VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DA x . (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) His Honour was occupied the whole morning with the part heard cases of Jenkins v. Cross and Jenkins v. Briant, which came before the Court upon exceptions and further directions. .... (Before the Vice:Chancellor KNIGHT BRUCE.) EXPARTE MOORE IN RE WESTROPP.—JUDGMENT. His HONOUR gave jugment in this bankrupt petition to-day, the object of which was to allow the proctor in the suit in the Eccle siastical Court to prove his costs as a debt under the Commission. The Court allowed the proof. (Before the Vice-Chancellor WIGRAM.) LAUDER V. INGERSOLL.— JUDGMENT. His HONOUR gave judgment in this case to-day, the arguments in which were concluded yesterday. Tl,e case came before the Court upon motion, the object of which was, on behalf of the in fant plaintiff, to remove the next friend, and for the ap. pointment of a new one. His Honour said there was no ground for imputing delay to the next friend, or for the Court's acting upon that supposition without an inquiry. The ground of the application was that the solicitor in the suit, and of the next friend whom he had appointed, ought not to have been the solicitor in the suit. Now the question in his Honour's mind was, whether, if he made the order asked, it would be for the benefit of the infant. The Court thought the application a proper one, so far as it would withdraw the control of the suit from Mr. Elworthy, the solicitor of the next friend. On the whole, his Honour thought that the best course he could adopt would be to refer it to the Master, to appoint a new next friend, who was to give security for the costs already incurred, and to pay Mr. Elworthy's costs as between solicitor and client, Mr. Elworthy to pay the costs of the present application, and the costs of appointing the next friend, the Court reserving the question by whom ultimately the whole of the costs were to be borne, and all further proceedings to be stayed till after the Master had made his report. FRANCIS V. GROVER.—JUDGMENT. His HONOUR stated that his opinion in this case was, that the annuity was not barred altogether. As to the revocation of the legacy, the Court thought there ought to be an issue to try whether the words in the will of the testator written in pencil formed part of his will. Mr. WALKER said it would be impossible to try the issue at the next assizes at Monmouth, as they would take place very shortly. He would suggest that the issue should be tried at Bristol. Mr. ROMILLY could see no objection to the proposition, but re quested that the case might stand over till Thursday, in order that he might communicate with his clients. The case was accordingly ordered to stand ever till that day. SHERIFFS' COURT.-(THIS DAY (Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BuaeneLL.) BARROW V. JUPP. This was an action to recover the sum of 19/, 14s. 9d., for coals supplied to defendant. Mr. CROUCH said, the plaintiff is a coal and iron owner at Rugby, and the defendant is a coal.merchant at Paddington. In April last the master of a barge belonging to defendant called and asked for a boat-load of coals on credit for defendant, until delivered at Paddington. This was agreed to, and plaintiff's agent also con sented to pay the tonnage, and add it to the account. The coals were subsequently delivered, but defendant refused to pay until an action was commenced, when defendant called on plaintiff and ten dered the amount of the demand, but without costs. The plain tiff's agent refused to take it on the ground that it was to be paid in London. The evidence, however, went to show that defendant said he had given the money to Marlow, the captain, and if plaintiff did not like to take it he might go on with his action, for Marlow was the person to be looked to. The coals were charged at I ls. 6d. per ton, with 2s. 10 %d. per ton for lock dues,4s.,a ton for freight age, and Is. Id. City dues. For the defendant it was contended that the dealing was between Marlow and plaintiff, but that nevertheless the amount had been tendered to plaintiff's attorney, who refused to take it unless ss. was paid for a letter demanding payment. The jury gave a ♦erdict for the defendant. RUSSIAN FRONTIERS, JUNE 7.—The Imperial ukase relative to the dress of the Jews is stated in an account from the Russian frontiers to have already produced some deplorable effects. These were, indeed, not intended by the Emperor, but were almost the inevitable consequence of a measure which so sud. denly and violently interferes with the roost cherished habits of a people. In Bordiezew, a considerable commercial town in Nolhynia, where, as in many towns of southern Russia, the Jews form the majority of the inhabitants, some young Jews appeared in the synagogue without long locks of hair; the Chassidim, almost fanatical religious sect, prevailing chiefly in Russia and Poland, re. sembling in some respects the Shakers of North America, incensed at this violation of a sacred custom, fell furiously on the blasphe mous, as they called them, threatening to tear them to pieces. All their representations, that they had only obeyed the commands of the Emperor, were unavailing. The Chassidim exclaimed that the Emperor could not command them in a religious manner ; that he might be the god of the Jawanim (so the Jews call the Russians, as properly the Greeks), but he was not theirs ; that they should rather suffer themselves to be stayed alive than to submit to such wicked or ders. A dreadful tumult occurred, and two of the young men are said to have expired under the ill treatment of the Chassidim. A strict investigation is set on foot by the Governor, and we are as sured that fifteen of the Chassidim have already been sent to Sibe ria. What has grieved these unhappy fanatics worse than all the rest is, that before setting out on their melancholy journey, they had to change their national dress for that usually worn by the exiles to Siberia, and that their heads were shaved, their long ocks being, of course, the first sacrifice. The following distinguished company have visited the Lyceum Theatre during the last few days :—His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge, the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort, Duchess of Leinster, the Duke of Marlborough, Matquis ,of Headfort, Marchioness Cornwallis, Marquis arid Alarchioness of Blandford, Earl and Countess of Harrington, Earl and Countess Delawarr and family, Earl of Munster, Earl of Charleville, Earl and Countess of Wicklow and family, Earl of Huntingdon, Lady Rivers, Lord Burghersh, Lady Sophia Devoux, Lady Jervis, Lord Suffield, Lady Bateman, Lady Mary Capron, Lady Hays, Lord Ranelagh, Lord Alex ander Russell, Farl anti Countess of Shelburne, Lord and Lady ingestre, Lord Bexley, Lord Guernsey, Lord Vivian, Sir Charles Kent, Lady Tyrwhytt, Lady Joddrell, Sir Henry Webb, Sir Charles Shackerley, Sir Benjamin Hall, Sir J. Copley, Captain Fenwick, Captain 'l'yrwhitt, H. Villesbois, Esq., Sir Thomas Heathcote, Lady Seovell, Lady Charlotte Deniston, &c. INGENIOUS TOBACCO SMUGGLlNG.—Yesterday a seizure of casks, which contained 2001bs. of cigars and cheroots, was made on board a vessel at Brewer's.quay, Lower Thames_ street, by an officer named Kirgman. The vessel had just ar rived from Holland with a cargo of butter, cheese, and other goods, and seven beer casks, which were directed to "Brewer's wharf—to be left till called for, and were about to be landed as empty casks in the usual manner when the revenue officer, Kirg man, having a suspicion of something wrong, took off the head of one of the casks, and it appeared at the first glance to be quite empty, but on a closer inspection he found the barrel was lined with a tin case of the same shape, and between that and the barrel itself the cigars and cheroots were concealed. He then opened the other barrels, and found them lined with tin in the same manner, and a similar quantity of cigars and cheroots in each. He imme diately seized the casks and their contents, and rolled them to the Queen's Warehouse, at the same time giving information to the Board of Customs, who ordered the vessel to be put under seizure also for the present. Each barrel contained about 301bs. of cigars and cheroots. They ate of the best quality, and the duty upon them alone is 901. CUBA SUGAR.-A small impartation of sugar from the island of Cuba was offered for sale in Liverpool on Monday at a broker's auction. The lot consisted of a hundred tierces, of three different qualities, and the importation took place, we believe, without any reference to the question of its admission, upon the most favourable terms which the Spanish Government have claimed fur the colony. Before the sale the broker agreed to allow the buyer 14 per cent, tare. The offers for the first 10 tierces commenced at 18s. per cwt., in bond, and for some time no other bid was made. The broker urged that the price of Cuba sugar of the same quality in the London market was 245. 6d., and intimated that the importer would close, if the offers ran be tween 21e. and 245. No higher sum, however, than 18s. 3d. was bid, and, consequently, the whole was withdrawn. It is stated in well.informed circles in Liverpool, that the indisposition to buy was caused by the law officers of the Crown not having yet given their opinion whether the slave- grown sugars of Ceiba and Porto Rico are to be admitted on the same terms as those of Venezuela and Louisiana. WEST SUFFOLK.-BURY ST. EDMUND'S, SATUR DAY.—The writ for the election of a Member for the western divi sion of this county, in the room of the late Col. ftushbrooke, came down yesterday, and the High Sheriff has appointed the 6th of July for the nomination of candidates. Should there be a contest (of which there seems to be little doubt), the election will com. mence on Thursday, the 10th, the Reform Act giving an interval of two clear days in county elections, and the poll, if persisted in, must be kept open until four o'clock on Friday evening. In that case the official declaration would not be made till the Monday following. We regret to learn that Lieut.• Colonel Brunton, of the 13th Light Dragoons, has been obliged to retire from his regiment, on account of ill health.—lpswich Expreis. CORK THEA'FRE. MADAME CELESTE AND MR. WEBSTER. The interest created by the superior acting of the inimitabl e Celeste, and that most excellent comedian, Mr. Webster, n ight I increases. By the way in which Webster sustained the arduou s character of the Baron Raveriburgh, in the Woman Hater, and the scapegrace Phillipot, in the Trumpeter's Daughter, in the early pa rt of the week, he, with whose talent as a manager of the most popula r London theatres we have been long familiar, proved himself to be a $ successful and popular before, as behind the curtain. Last evening, notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather, there was a large attendance, and a fashionable audience to witnes s the production of The Mysterious Stronger, taken from th e French piece &Ilan ou Le Diable a Parrs. The character of the Mysterious Stranger, who, until the denouement, is OP" posed to be the " Prince of Darkness," was sustained hi Celeste in a style which drew from every part of the house the most enthusiastic plaudits. The admirable manner in which she supported the various parts she had to assume in her efforts to sal? the Count de Beausoliel from the danger which surrounded hite' and the successful stratagems which she employed for the purpose of exposing to him the hollowness of his friends, and the infideldi of his mistress—particularly the scene with Mademoiselle de Na n ' trite in the house of Beausoliel, where she persuades De Nantelle, that the reported arrest of Bcausoliel's banker was unfounded, an d induces the inconstant fair one to take a new and more wealth l lover, was performed in a manner which could hardly be equalled by any other actress at present on the stage. Webster, in the character of Crequet, the servant of 13eaW soliel, contributed greatly to the success of the piece. TV. struggle between his fears of the Mysterious Stranger when en , tering into the contract, and the anxiety he evinces to possess ht { little Madeline, twelve thousand francs a year, the cow and the pig, were most naturally and effectively represented by him, th e house being throughout the scene convulsed with laughte r by his ludicrous and lugubrious appearance. On the fall of the curtain Celeste and Webster were loudly called for, and 0 e their appearance were saluted in the most complimentary manner, A new petite comedy followed, entitled Susanna, or Marriage and Minuets. The expressive and graceful pantomime of Celeste as th e Dumb Girl in the early part of the peice, the easy and dignified MO' ner in which she glided through the Minuet de la Cour with Webster , and the interim mental affliction betrayed by her acting in the scene which led to the restoration of her speech, could only be given in the style that they were by Celeste. Mr. Webster as Brinsley Burn* a fop of the time of Louis Le Grand,:was as unbending in his ca n riage and self-conceited as any exquisite of that period could we! be. Although we cannot say of him as well as of Celeste that " Grace was in all his steps," his dancing in the minuet and th e Polka would do credit to many who are high in that departmen t, The other members of the company sustained their parts respectabli , and the Mysterious Stranger was again announced for represent s ' tion this evening amid much applause.—Cork Southern Reporter. ROYAL GENERAL PENSION SOCIETY.—YeStf•rbY afternoon a meeting of the subscribers to the above Associatio n was held at the Hanover-square Rooms, Major-General Sir J.

In the night of the 21st ult., towards twelve o'clock an unusual swell of water, resembling a high tide, took place e t Cette, and continued risin g u n til t wo i n th e morn i ng. It had at that period reached the top of the quay, and after remaining for a short time, began to fall, and continued descending until It reached the very foundation of the wall. The larger vessels be/ 0 1 firmly moored escaped injury, but a number of boats were force. away, and some of them stove in. A violent storm arose bran* diately after, and a heavy fall of rain, accompanied with loud cite of thunder, took place about five in the morning. It is suppos ed that the entrance. of the sun on the summer solstice, conjointi! with the full moon, may have caused this phenomenon.—Galignen s ' A FATHER COMMITTED FOR THE MAINSLAUGHYB S or its SON. —Yesterday, Mr. Wakley, M,P., resumed an ad journed inquest at the Royal Free Hospital,on the body of Geor3e Chalk, aged 13. The deceased, his father, and grandfather, we re engaged in the brickfields of Mr. Bassett, Cainden-town, an d:on the 6th instant decea•ed's father was displeased with him for no t having done sonic work which he desired him to perform. The father, enraged at being disobeyed by his son, knocked him dow n ' kicked him in the side, and then jumped on him. Mr. Mulleins, who was in the first instance called upon to attend him, and 1 0 ' Cook, house-surgeon of the Free Hospital, who ultimately had care of him, deposed that the deceased informed them that he h a d been ill.treated as stated, and that they found that he was suffering front a violent inflammation in the lower part of his abdomen, caused bl external violence, which terminated fatally on the 2.2 el instant. Upon a post mortern examination an extensive abscess was found on the right side, between the liver and diaphragm, and from the latter a perforation into his lungs ensued which caused death, The jury, without hesitation, returned a verdict of manslaughter against the unfortunate father, who was committed to Newgate on the coroner's warrant. FATAL ACCIDENT OFF BATTERSEA.—Yesterday morning an inquiry, which stood adjourned from last week, was concluded at the Red House, Battersea, before Mr. Carter, relative to the recent stcam.boat collision off that place, by which Mr' Joseph Cooper, a fine young man, and member of the Nautilus Club, lost his life. From the evidence, which was of a very con flicting nature, as many as fourteen or fifteen witnesses being ex amined, it appeared that on Monday last, about half.past six o'clock in the evening, the Matrimony iron steam-boat was pro ceeding towards Chelsea, on the Surrey side of the river, near the lied House, when in snaking for the now pier, off the British Flag Tavern, a light wager.boat, containing the deceased and another gentleman belonging to the same club, shot out from the shore, apparently fur the purpose of clearing the pier before the steamer carne up. The captain had noticed the boat previously, but lost sight of it for a few minutes behind a dredging machine, when it again shot out right in the way of the steamer. The engines were promptly stopped, and the wheels reversed, and everything adopted in order to check her progress, but unfortunately she came in fearful collision with the boat. The friend of the deceased perceiving the danger, jumped overboard, and was saved by some watermen ; but the deceased, who had got up in the boat appa rently with the intention of warding off the blow, went down with the craft, which was shivered to pieces by the force of the collision. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of Accidental Death. LONDON 1 3 11ILANTIIROPIC SOCIETY.—The anniver sary festival of this Society was held last night at the London Tavern.
