We regard the work before us, The silent Friend,' as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of com plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must, however, confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially wish every one who is the victims of past folly, or suffer ing from indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained in its pages." —Age and Argus. " The Authors of The Silent Friend,' seem to be thoroughly conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are, we fear, too prevalent in the present day.

EDWARD PRICE and CO., Patentees and Sole Manufacturers of the COMPOSITE CANDLES, respectfully call the attention of the Public to the fact, that, although the price of these is somewhat higher than that of ordinary mould Candles, they are in reality much cheaper than these latter; one real composite Candle giving about the same quantity of light as three of the moulds. They require no snuffing, and burn more brilliantly thaa the best wax. The purposes of economy and luxury are therefore both served at the same time by the use of these Candles. Parties intending to try them for the first time, are earnestly requested to take care that they are served in the shops with " PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES:" the reason for this caution is given elsewhere. They are sold by most of the respectable tallow chandlers through out the kingdom, and wholesale to the trade by Edward Price and Co., Belmont, Vauxhall; and by Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkcnwell.

FRIGHTFUL STATE OF TIPPERARY. The post of to-day has brought from the ill-fated county of Tipperary the most disastrous accounts of three more dreadful murders. The .Neisayls Guardian gives the following account of them : THE SIXTH MURDER.—On Saturday last, about the hour of four o'clock, as a man, named Pat M`Gennissy, was on his return home from the Quarter Sessions of Thurles, where he had been obtaining a decree for the small sum of 305., and when near the demesne of Brittas, two men jumped out from over a ditch and pulled him off the car on which he sat, and on which three men were also travelling, but who never interfered to save the un fortunate man. The two murderers beat their victim with stones about the head to such an extent, that he died from the effects on Sunday evening last. A man, named Tracey, against whom M'Gennissy had obtained the decree, has been arrested, and is in custody. THE SEVENTH MURDER.—On the evening of Sunday, the 20th of October last, three men, named James Molo ney, Patrick Carr, and William Carr, went into the house of Denis Bryan, a publican, at liilcommon, and after drinking some beverage, which had the effect of making them a little tipsy, they had some dispute, and after leaving the house a quarrel ensued, and the two Carrs went into the dwelling of another brother, named John Carr, out of which they came, and after shouting outside the door of the house where Moloney went in for protection, Moloney jumped out of the win dow, and was seized by Joh❑ and Wm. Carr, and was beaten with stones on the left side of the head by Paddy Carr, which fractured his skull, and of which he died on Saturday night last, the 9th of November. An inquest was held by James Carroll, Esq., coroner, and a verdict returned, " That said James Moloney received a mortal wound on the 20th October, inflicted by some person or persons unknown, and of which he died." n THE EIGHTH MURDER.—An inquest was held in Thurles on Saturday last, by Michael Cormack, Esq., coroner, on the body of a man named Thomas Ryan, who had been assaulted by Patrick Ryan, on the 2d of October last, in that tows. The jury brought in a ver dict to the following effect :—" That the deceased, Thos. Ryan, came by his death in consequence of a blow from a stone on the head, inflicted by Patrick Ryan, on the 2d of October last, of which he died on Friday, the Bth of Nov. inst." The Coroner's warrant was then issued, and Patrick Ryan has been arrested. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

RELIEF TO THE CASUAL POOR.-011 Thursday, at the weekly meeting of the board of guardians of St. George the Martyr, Southwark, Mr. Boxer (the chair man) called attention to the report which appeared i n the daily papers, of an inquest on the body of John Mason, aged 71, who appeared to have died in very dis tressed circumstances. The daughter had deposed that about ten days before, her father, unknown to her, had applied to the parish authorities of St. George the Mar tyr, Southwark, for relief, and that a portion of a quar tern loaf, a little tea, sugar, and oatmeal had been given to the deceased. Mr. Caslake said the report of the in quest stated, that the application was made ten days ago, whereas it was made on the evening of the 15th of October. John James Mason, aged 71, then applied for a little casual relief ; he said he was very old and ill, and that his daughter was also ill. He being informed of these circumstances, took the name and address of the deceased, who then lived at No. 27, White-street. De ceased then said he only wanted relief until Thursday, on which he gave the deceased an order for half a quar tern loaf, an ounce of tea, half a pound of sugar, and one pound of oatmeal. Tho deceased then said, that upon Thursday he should come into some property, and then he should not require any further assistance. lie had no wish to go into the workhouse ; if he had, he could have done that long since, for a friendly order had been given him on Camberwell, which he had in his pocket. After the deceased had received the order, he (Cas lake) desired Mr. Lockhart to visit the case, and to desire the deceased, if he wanted further relief, to apply again, but he (Mason) never made a second applica tion. The reason why he had ordered only two pounds of bread was on account of the age of the deceased. Old people ate but very little bread. Mr. Lockhart was then called in, and said, that within an hour and a half after the order had been given he went to the lodgings of the deceased, and he then saw on the table about a pound of cooked mutton-chops and a pint of porter. Finding that both the deceased and his daughter were ill, he informed them, that in case any further relief was required, to come on the next day to the board. At this time he saw a friendly order, directed to the master of Camberwell workhouse, fir the admission of the decersed ; that was dated as far back as July, 1843. The deceased had been, three days before he had applied for relief, removediin a cab into the parish. After the visit he neither saw nor heard anything further of the deceased until last Sunday, when he was directed to attend the inquest, but he was not called. One of the witnesses who had been exa mined informed him (Lockhart), that the bread which had been given the daughter had been put into the slop-pail, and that she afterwards sent the person al luded to out for a penny loaf. Mr. Boxer, Mr. boole, and Mr. Moggridge, said, from the explanation which had been made, it was quite evident their officers had done their duty, and had afforded relief as soon as it had been applied for. DREADFUL EFFECT OF FRIGHT.—SOIIIe two Or three weeks ago, a young woman, whose name we do not give, went to the house of a poor but respec table man named High, with whose daughter she was on very intimate terms, having on a mask made to resemble an ass's head. Finding the poor girl alone, and thinking to enjoy a fine piece of fun in frightening her, she insisted on her dancing. The poor creature was so dreadfully frightened, that she fell into violent fits, which continued for some time, when she became a decided lunatic ; but the shock her whole frame had sustained was too violent, and nature gave way to the sufferings consequent thereon.

GREAT TROTTING MATCH FOR ONE HUNDRED POUNDS.—The long-pending match between Mr.Vander stein's (of Whitechapel) grey gelding and Mr. M'Grath's (of Lambeth) bay cob, to trot two miles in harness, came off on Tuesday on Sunbury-common, and, from the amount of stakes, the heavy betting on the race, and the great celebrity of the horses, an unusual degree of in terest was created in the sporting arena. The spectators might be fairly computed at 1,500. The distance being measured, the horses, harnessed to light match-carts, were driven to the starting mark, and at the signal they went away at great speed, and accomplished half a mile in eighty-eight seconds. At this stage the bay horse broke out into a gallop, and was suddenly pulled in (in compliance with the usual rules of trotting), and the great cavalcade of horsemen and vehicles came violently upon it, and it was thrown down, the chaise overturned, and the driver seriously injured, and, being unable to proceed further, the grey horse completed the distance and won the stakes, the spectators being much mortified at so unsatisfactory a result. The winning pony is of American breed, and performed the two miles in six minutes. Prime mutton is now selling at WTotton-under- Edge, Gloucestershire, at 4icl. per lb.

Some proceedings lately instituted by the Board of Excise, and still in operation, against Messrs. Smith, the extensive distillers and rectifiers, of Mile-end, White chapel, are exciting a painful degree of interest in the wine and spirit trade, the more particularly as the cir cumstances out of which those proceedings have arisen are very imperfectly known, if at all. There are ru mours in abundance afloat on the subject, which tiatu rally assume that there is some very serious charge against a firm, whose business is so extensive that their payments to Government, for the duty on spirits, are not less than at the rate of 1,0001. daily ; and that this charge must rest upon something like legal evidence to justify a course which will appear to all, but especially to those who have had no experience in the working of the Excise laws, extremely severe and harsh. When thesejumours, however, come to deal with facts, they betray the greatest ignorance of the real state of the case ; and it becomes, therefore, of unusual importance to put the affair in an authentic shape, so far as it is accessible at the present moment. By the Act 57th Geo. IV., cap. 123, for the regulation of distilleries, &c., it was enacted that the business of a distiller and rectifier should not be carried on upon the same premises; but, as there existed at the time when this law:was made some establishments, of which this now conducted by Messrs. Smith' was one, uniting both ope rations within the same walls, an exception was created in their favour, and a few others similarly situated, with only this proviso—that the communication between the distillery and the rectifying houses should only take place by means of carts and waggons, in an open man ner. By a subsequent Act, the 6th George IV., cap. 6, a modification of the clause above described took place. and, instead of the expression " shall only take place," the words " can only take place," were introduced. This Act is dated in 1825 (nearly twenty years ago), but it is only just discovered that there is an arrange ment on the premises on which both the operations of Messrs. Smith are situated for conveying water from one department to the other, and which brings them within the range of the altered clause in the Act of 1825. On Saturday, the 2d inst., they received notice, not in writ ing, but verbally, from the Excise-officer on the premises, that their works must be stopped, which was of course complied with, as no offer from them to give any se curity that might be required would be listened to. Early in the week following the water communication between the two establishments was adverted to by the officers of Excise, and notice given that the experiment must now be made whether by the same medium spirits could not also be conveyed. To this no opposition was made, and it was ascertained, what there could be no doubt of under the circumstances, that the hydraulic principle would be just as available for one liquid as for the other ; but the spirits so conveyed were, as it is stated, so much deteriorated and mixed with water as to become unfit for use with out undergoing again the process of distillation. Under this experiment, therefore, property of considerable value was wasted. That it must have been considered by those who made it conclusive against the Messrs. Smith as a breach of the law of 1825, must be assumed from the coatinuance of the restriction from carrying on their business, which still remains in force. Under that restriction about sixty of the workmen were discharged on Saturday last, and the same number will be dismissed at the end of the present week. The premises, from the disappearance of the activity manifested there when at full work, have a mournful appearance, and are further disfigured by the laying open of the whole pavement be neath which the pipes passed for conveying water from the distilling to the rectifying house. This is, we believe, all that is known, unless, perhaps, to the Commissioners of Excise ; but Messrs. Smith have addressed a memorial to the Treasury o❑ the sub ject, an answer to which is daily expected, and which may throw some further light upon the matter. The question arising out of this affair is one which will be viewed with much interest by the Scotch and Irish distillers, who complain that the indulgence granted to the existing large English distilleries by the Act of 1817, in allowing both operations still to be carried on within the same walls, was injurious to them, and shut them out from the competition with their rivals in this country. Under Lord Liverpool's Administration a commission of inquiry was instituted, and an Act passed, 4 George IV., cap. 94, extending at first only to Scot land and Ireland, but which had for its object the con solidation and assimilation of the laws for regulating distilleries, and the trade in spirits throughout the United Kingdom. The provisions of the Act last re ferred to were found to be so well adapted for the pur pose in view, that it was proposed by the Government to extend the same regulations to the United Kingdom, but in this they did not succeed. There can be no doubt that a pretext will be afforded by what has just occurred for a revival of this discussion by the Scotch and Irish distillers.—Times. EXTRAORDINARY CASE. Thursday a lengthened investigation took place before Mr. W. Carter, touching the death of John Thomas. The body was lying at Kent -street, Borough, in one of the most horrible dens that ever met the human eye. The room was about eight feet square, in the centre of which stood an old counter, underneath was an old flock bed, and a parcel of dirty rags, covered with filth and vermin, which formed the deceased's bed-place. There were neither table nor chairs, nor any signs of food. The body of the deceased was lying on the floor, and presented a most wretchedly emaciated appearance. The walls, which were bare, were covered with cobwebs, and the room had evidently not been cleaned out for some years. The CORONER said, that he had seen a great many strange places, but had never met with such a horrible one before. Ann Nash stated, that she had been living with de ceased twelve years, and was not married to him, al though she went as his wife. He was a shoemaker by trade, but had not done any work for some years. He always pleaded the greatest poverty to witness, although she know him to be in the receipt of 15s. per week. She was in the habit of earning a shilling or two now and then, but he always took it from her, and sometimes spent it in buying food. She had had one child by him, which was ten years old. They were often left two and three days together without food or firing. He would never allow her to apply to the parish for assistance, as he was fearful of its coming to the ears of his relatives, who, she had heard, wore highly respectable, and lived somewhere in the city, near Newgate-market. He was of the most filthy habits, and would never permit her to wash any of his clothes. He had formerly had plenty of good wearing apparel sent to him by some friend, which he had pawned in the Dover-road. He was in the habit of going out every Monday morning to receive his money, but she had never received a single farthing from him during the twelve years she had been with him. On Wednesday week he went out with an old great coat •n, but be returned without it in about an hour afterwards. She asked him for some money, as they had not tasted food for two days. He said that he had not got any. Shortly afterwards he took some money from his pocket, and sent for half a quartern loaf, which he shared among them. In the evening of the same day ho was seized with pains in the groin. He got into bed with his clothes on (as he had been in the habit of doing for years), and remained in his bed until Friday last, when he appeared so bad, that witness called in Mr. Hankin, surgeon, of Dover-road, who attended with promptitude, and ordered a mustard poultice and leeches to be applied immediately. He then gave her 6d. to purchase them. She went out, and returned in a few minutes with the articles, and on entering the room she found 4s. lying on the corner •f the table or coui ter. She tried to rouse him ; but he had expired, and on looking in the bed she found four more half-crowns and a shilling, which must have been his last payment, on the Monday previous to his death. She had repeatedly begged of him to have a doctor, but he always said, that "if she brought a doctor into the house, he would kick him out again." A Juror observed, that it was a most extraordinary case; he could hardly believe that a woman could live in such a state of horrible filth and destitution for so long a period as twelve years. The CORONER—Do you think the deceased has died from want ? Witness—l do, Sir. He had the means of getting food, but he would not have it. I and my child have been without food for some days together. He would occasionally pull out money, when he found that I had none. The CORONER—You must be a very strange woman indeed, to have lived with a man so long in such a nai sorable state. I never met with a case before to equal it. Mr. llankin, the surgeon, said he had found deceased labouring under strangulated hernia ; inflammation had taken place, and mortification ensued, which was the cause of death. The jury found a verdict in accordance with this evi dence. ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.— About twenty-five minutes past ten o'clock on Wednes day night, as the goods down train, which left the Nine Elms terminus at ten o'clock, had just passed the Merton Gate, the train was suddenly thrown off the rails by coming into contact with something upon the line, Fortunately no injury occurred to any person ; but upon examining what was the cause of the occurrence, two bullocks were found :with their heads severed from their bodies, and several others were lying upon the rails so dreadfully mangled, that it was found necessary for them to be killed. It was found that the beasts had broken through the hedge of an adjoining field, and strayed on to tho line, ; Several p o li ce - cons t a bl es o f t h e V division lent their assistance, and a special engine and other as sistance having arrived from the Nine Elms terminus, the train was shortly after replaced, and it proceeded on to its destination, T.ll ATTOIINY• GENERAL V. GIBBS.—We are enabled to state, that in this suit there is no likelihood of a report being made. The suit was originally re• ferred to Sir George Rose, but from the alloged anxiety to bring the cause to a conclusion, au order was obtained to refer it to the vacation Master, who has done nothing, gild bout it back to Sir George gosc, PROPOSED PASSAGE FROM CAIRO TO SUEZ. We copy the following articles on this subject from two of the leading Paris journals of opposite politics which seem to agree wonderfully on one point—the superiority of a canal to a railroad : (From the Journal des Debats.) " By the letter of Mr. Waghorn to the Pacha of Egypt, it may be seen that fresh efforts are making to improve the communication with India by the Isthmus of Suez. The grand question is to determine whether a railroad or a canal will be the preferable plan to carry this object into effect. At this time passengers going from Europe to India by Egypt land at Alexandria, gain the Nile by the Mahmoudie Canal; again ascend the Nile as far as Cairo, and then cross the Deserts to Suez, where they embark in the Red Sea. The railroad proposed by Mr. Waghorn would also go from Cairo to Suez, and would thus save passengers the disagreeable route across the Desert, which, with all the attenipts made to render it comparatively easy, is still most tedisus and fatiguing. If the proposed canal is also to be cut from CaTo to Suez, certainly the railroad should be preferred. The canal of the Isthmus of Suez has long since existed. Rendered impassable several times by reason of the sands which accumulate, and which the jealousy of the Arabs, whose traffic by canals is injured, prevents them from clearing- away. But the canal in this direction was extremely inconvenient, being fed by the waters of the Nile, it was useless except when that river was high ; and, therefore, the navigation of it was interrupted for six months in the year. Commerce demands a more regular and uninterrupted com munication ; it cannot, therefore, be surprising that Mr. Waghorn, and those whose ideas he re presents, should be in favour of a line of railroad from Cairo to Suez. But the time for comparison is ill chosen. Without doubt two hundred and sixty kilo metres of canalisation, or extensive proportions, between Alexandria and Cairo, joined to one hundred and sixty five kilometres of the canal from Cairo to Suez, would be a most costly undertaking. But it is not the less true that a canal large enough to take a vessel of the size of the first-class:East Indiamen, would be a thousand times better than a railroad. The railroad from Cairo to Suez would be exclusively for passengers and mails, whereas if a canal of the above dimensions was cut through the Isthmus, it would be of immense advantage to the whole commercial world. The obstacles to such an undertaking are not insurmountable. There is a means of cutting through the Isthmus from one side to the other without the enormous expense of an artificial navigation between Cairo and Alexandria. This is to commence precisely at its narrowest point, from Suez to the strand of Faramah, on the borders of the Mediter ranean, near the small village of Thynah. Everything is here suitable for the undertaking. The clistanee is short. From Suez to Thynah, as a bird would fly, it is only 120 kilometres, and in this space would be in cluded what are called the Bitter Lakes, whore the bed of the canal is now cut by nature, and the lake Men rahleh which only requires deepening. The ground at this point is level, for iu the whole distance there is only a metre of elevation. " Again, the Red Sea at Suez being eight metres at least higher than the Mediterranean, the canal would be easily fed by the waters of the former. Nothing but the greatest negligence could ever cause a collection of sand to impede the navigation. Everything, therefore, is in favour of the plan except one thing—the want of a good port at the terminus in the Mediterranean ; but this difficulty may be c onquere d b y the improved state of modern science in deepening ports, and causing good anchorage in places where formerly it was impracticable. " This direct canal across the Isthmus of Suez is not more difficult, if so much see as that of Mahrnoudie, formed by Mehemet Ali. The formation of a port at Thynah is a very easy work, and would not be so diffi cult as what has been clone to form the harbour of Cette. The question now is, by whom is this canal to be made ? As it is a work of general European interest, and a work of the greatest interest to the commerce of the world. and of more immediate importance than the proposed communication across the Isthmus of Panama, all the maritime nations might take the enterprise under their patronage and their guarantee, so as to make the passage a complete neutral one. " Moreover, the work is entirely within the power of the Pacha of Egypt, without any foreign assistance. The Pacha, who has constructed more than a thousand kilo metres of canals or large dykes for the purpose of irri gation, might without difficulty with his own people ac complish the work. It would only be a continuation of what he has before done. M. Le Pee, who had been charged by the General-in -Chief to prepare a plan for a canal across the Isthmus, estimated the expense at only seventeen millions of francs. But let us call it thirty, or even forty millions, in consequence of the works to be done at Thynah and Suez. Tho cutting the canal would bring into cultivation an immense extent of ground which is now in desert, and which was formerly fertile until buried in the sand. This would be adding an immense capital to the Pacha, and the right of toll dues would. also bring him an immense revenue. Thus, materially speaking, the undertaking would be a profitable one for the Viceroy ; politically speaking, it would be of im mense value to Europeans. By the Pacha, therefore, with his own resources, in default of the coacurrence of the maritime powers, the cutting through the Isthmus of Suez may be caraied into effect, and there is reason to suppose he will enter into these views. " While waiting for this desired event, which viould remove so many obstacles to general commerce, should not the French Government remove another which presses heavily on our trade with the Levant, and vk hich naturally occurs to the mind when speaking of the com munication with Egypt. We allude to the quarantine which is maintained by the French Government, though in a great measure suppressed by the English, and which has the effect of causing the passage from Alexandria to Paris to be shorter by way of England than by Mar seilles." (Frcm the Constitutionnel) " The English Government and its agents, direct or indirect, have peculiar motives for thinking of the esta blishment of a railroad. We need not say that these motives are foreign to a commercial interest. England cares nothing about seeing the commerce of India take other modes of transport than that of the Cape of Good Hope, and does not feel for Trieste so violent a sym pathy as to sacrifice to it a portion of the interests of ' London or Liverpool. Besides, if the commerce of India were to pass through Egypt, Marseilles, and even Odessa, would be as great gainers as Trieste. What the English Government seeks in the establishment of a railroad across the Desert is, first, the means of trans porting with facility and rapidity, the troops and materiel of war which may be wanted in India; and, secondly, the protectorate which the passage of these troops, and the residence of an English company at the head of the rail road, would permit it to exercise over Egypt, The English Government knows very well that the Paella has neither iron, coals, nor wood, and still less the money which would be required for making and working a rail road, The Pacha, however, may and ought to attempt another means of communication. What the interest of his power and the prosperity of Egypt counsel is the construction of a canal between Suez and Cairo. All the objections which he has made to a railroad disappear when a canal is proposed. He is able to execute this enterprise with his own means. He has an army habi tuated to all the labours of digging and embankment, and there are capable engineers in his service. A canal which should join the Nile to the Red Sea would give considerable commercial advantages to Cairo and Alex andria, communicate great activity to the navigation of the Red Sea and the Nile, and .probably fertilise an. extensive none of desert on the two banks. A loan eo. traded for the exec u ti on o f t hi s enterprise, and guarann teed by the revenues of the canal itself, might be effected in aid of the finances of the Pacha, without depriving him of any portion of his financial inde pendence. This is an enterprise which would be profit able to England in common with the rest of Europe, and which ought to be encouraged by all who take an in terest in the prosperity of Egypt, and in the progress of civilisation." ATTEMPT TO ARREST TIIE MURDERERS OF THE MORMON PROPHET.—Governor Ford, of Illinois, ordered a detachment of troops under General J. J. Hardin to encamp near Carthage on the 26th ult., intending to aid the civil authorities in the arrest of the murderers of Joo and Hiram Smith. The country will applaud this de termination of the Governor to sustain the laws. The lawless enemies of the Mormons had planned an attack on Nauvoo for the massacre of the Mormons on the 26th and 27th ult., their forces to be collected under the pre tence of joining in a wolf hunt ; but Governor Ford, by a judicious arrangement of his troops, disconcerted their arrangements, and it was supposed they would not at: tempt to carry out this wicked project. The Governor was at Carthage. Writs were issued and placed in the hands of the Sheriff for the arrest of Thomas C. Sharp, editor of the Warsaw Signal, and for Colonel Williams, of the same, both charged with participating ha the murder of the Smiths. The Sheriff came to Warsaw and attempted to arrest Sharp, but he refused to surrender himself, and in this resolution was sustained by the infamous part of the population of Warsaw. The Sheriff returned and reported his inability to arrest him, when three hundred of the troops were ordered to march to Warsaw. The troops had not arrived at Warsaw before the last steamer left, but Sharp and Williams had escaped to the Missouri side of the river, where they will find a :horde of sympathising spirits. Sharp has issued an address. He says, " I did not help to kill Joe Smith, for I did not go to the gaol with those who killed him. If my influence helped to produce the state of feeling that resulted in his death, why I am, in common with some hundreds of others, guilty, not of murder. but of an extra-judicial execution. I have the most satisfactory proof that Joe Smith threatened my life, and sought to take it. If I had, therefore, killed him, I should only have acted in self-defence." • He acknow► ledges himself, then, an accessory to the murder before the fact, and should be held accountable to the law.— New York paper.
