Gentlemen,- 1 think it but an act of justice to inform you of the benefit I have de.ived from the use of your admirable Macassar Oil. About six months ago I found my hair getting daily more weak and thin, and much discoloured from a practice I had adopted of wetting it continually ; fearing that I should lose it entirely, and hearing of the efficacy of your Macassar Oil, I have for some time past con stantly used it, and the result is, that my hair is now perfectly re stored and much improved in appearance and colour, having become thick, dark, and glossy ; it also curls freely without the use of paper, which it never did before. To all my friends I have warmly recom mended your Macassar Oil as an excellent restorative and preserva tive for the hair. As I have an objection to see my name in print, 1 bag you will not publish it ; but you are at liberty to show this letter, or make any other use you please of it, and re er applicants to me, necessary, in proof of the efficacy of your Macassar 011.

' ___ The humble petition of the undersign._ parties, lately en gaged in promoting a railway fromthe South-Eastern Railway near Headcorn, to the harbours of Rye and Hastings, Showeth,—That your petitioners lately introduced a Bill into your Honourable House for making the above-mentioned railway, which Bill was referred to a Select Committee as a competing line with a projected railway from the London arid Brighton Railway to Hastings. That the said Committee, in their report to your Honour able House, has stated that they have negatived the pre amble of the Bill so introduced by your petitioners, but that as a considerable amount of the traffic anticipated on the line thereby contemplated, and on the said other line, might be expected to pass on the intermediate portion of those lines, or cross them is the direction of Chichester and Portsmouth in the one case, and of that of Maidstone, and places on the northern and eastern coast of Kent, in the other, they might have been disposed to give their sanction to both lines, had the estimated amount of traffic appeared sufficient for the. support of two such extensive undertakings, and had they been convinced that the proposed line by Headcorn had been deliberately adopted as the best that could be selected in an engineering point of view, and also in regard to the accom modation of the town of Hastings. ' That your petitioners have reason to believe that the por tion of the said last-mentioned line to which the said report refers as not having been deliberately adopted, is that which lies between Rye and Hastings, and that had the Bill intro duced by your petitioners been for the making a railway to the harbour of Rye alone they would have succeeded in esta blishing, to the satisfaction of the said Committee, that the same should have been allowed to pass into a law. That a considerable portion of the traffic which was antici pated on the said projected line, and of the public benefit de rivable from the formation thereof, was wholly irrespective of the town of Hastings, and it would be of the greatest local and public advantage if the said line were formed as far as the port of Rye only, which will in no way participate in the benefits expected to result from the competing line from the London. and Brighten Railway to llastings, which has been sanctioned by the said Committee. That, as evidence of the extent of such anticipated traffic, and as security that such line from:the South-Eastern Rail way to Rye, would be efficiently worked and maintained, your petitioners beg to add that the South-Eastern Railway Company are willing to become the lessees thereof at a rent remunerative to the projectors, and they humbly hope, there fore, that the great expense'which has been incurred by them in bringing the said Bill before Parliament may not be lost, by the total rejection of the measure thereby contemplated. Your. petitioners, therefore, humbly pray your Honourable House, that the said Bill for snaking a railway from the South-Eastern Railway near lleadcorn to the Harbour of Rye and Hastings, may be re -committed to the former Com mittee to whom the said Bill was referred, and that it be an instruction to such Committee that they have power, if they seefit, to rescind their former decision on the preamble of the said Bill, and to consider and report on the expediency of allowing the said Bill to pass for making a railway to the town and harbour of Rye only.

SMALE. • SUDDEN DEATH OF A LADY.—An inquest was held yesterday at the Fountain, Jamaica-street, Commercial-road, before Mr. Baker, the Coroner, on the body of Rachael Bel lamy, aged twenty-two. Matilda Hethington, of No. 46, Green-street, said that on Tuesday last the deceased and Mr. Bellamy, who was a retired surgeon, came from the country and engaged lodgings at her house. Deceased then appeared in the enjoyment. of excellent health, and in the evening went to the Pavilion Theatre. The next morning Mr. Bel lamy sent for a black draught, and deceased was sick all day long, and kept her bed. She was better on Thursday last, but on Friday her husband told witness she was again ill. Witness went into her room and saw her in bed, gasping for breath, and quite insensible. In a quarter of an hour she died. Her husband said that a short time before her death he gave her a dose of salts. Porter, the constable, said, that since the death of the deceased her husband had removed the • phials which had contained the medicine he gave her, and mstead of giving the clothes she died in, according to the usual custom, to the woman by whom she was attended in her illness, carried them out of the house. The Coroner said that the case was not without some suspicion, and that it would be necessary to have the cause of death determined by and pdosi‘trmr.ocrtaerrnzaet,xasmurngiaeotino. , n re Th eei e ve in d q i u n e s s t t as ru w etiop tl s se w n a o d p jo e u n rn an ed, d examine the body.

The attendance was numerous, but chiefly confined to colonial brokers, there being only three or four farmers present. AN OLD CAT.—There is now in the possession of a lady of this town a cat which has been in the family twenty years, and a few days ago she had two very fine kittens.— Cambridye Chronicle. Melancholy, even love melancholy, is not so deeply seated, at least in minds of a manly and elastic character, as the soft enthusiasts who suffer under it are fond of believing. It yields to unexpected and striking impressions upon the senses, to change of place, to such scenes as create new trains of association, and to the influence of the busy buns of mankind.—Sir Walter Scott. _ _ -- - CHATHAM, JUNE 10.—On Saturday afternoon; the Bth inst., several detachments of regiments serving in India, arrived in vans from Gravesend at the Invalid Depst, Case ment Barracks, Brompton, consisting of one corporal, four privates, of the 3d Buffs • two sergeants, one corporal, and 25 privates of the 9th Foot ; one private of the 10th ; and three sergeants, two corporals, one drummer; 16. privates, with the Quarter-master Sergeant Leighton, of.the 31st, with eight women and 17 children. These corps, in charge of Lieutenant Trevor, 3d Dragoons, embarked at Calcutta on the sth of February, on board the ship Earl.of Hardivicke, Captain Henning, and put in at the Cape of Goodllope, re maining there seven days, and sailed again on the Ist of April. On the ship's arrival opposite to the Island of St. Helena, on the 21st of April, they hove to to take in dis patches for England, and after a very excellent. , passage of 122 days arrived off Gravesend on the 7th inst. Several pas sengers embarked at Calcutta, among them were General Nott and his lady, with two daughters ; Lieutenant Burille, of the 50th Regiment; Captain Edmunds of.the. 9th Foot; this officer was coming home for the benefit ahis health. He," however, died a day after the ship had passed the Bay of Bengal. At the Cape General Nott, lady and family, dis embarked, and were left there when the shipesailed.- Most of the soldiers that have come home have been in India up wards of twenty years, some of them happened to be on board the Kent Indianian when she took fire in the Bay of Biscay, in the year 1825. • The troops are healthy. In the British Channel the Earl of Hardwicke spoke the Queen and the Prince of Wales; both these vessels have troops on board, and also the ship Maidstone, having on board Major-General Sir G. Napier, late Governor of the Cape of Good Hope. The late Sergeant-Major William Neelance, of the 12th ' Lancers from the care and attention paid to him since in hospital by the medical authorities of Fort Pitt,xis much better. Colonel Sampson Stawell has written for.thim to re turn to his regiment, which will be allowed as soon as he is capable of bearing the journey. - SUICIDE WHILST DREAMING.—On Sunday even ing last, a young man, named William Sexten, son .of the landlord of the White Hart, Commercial Inn, Aimpthill, Bedfordshire, died from the effects of a wound in his throat, inflicted by himself, under the following singular circum stances. For some time past the deceased had suffered from asthma, and at times was rather delirious. On Wednesday night, the 22d ult., he went to bed at the usual time; appa rently much better in health than for some days - previous. Between one and two o'clock the following' morning . he walked to his sister's reom and woke her up: She in/lured who was there, but receiving no answer, went to the door and found the deceased. She asked him what he wanted, but he only answered by pointing to his throat; arid on putting her hand to the spot, she found that he was htdeding from a wound in it. Assistance was procured as soon as pos sible, and the wound was dressed. On rallying, the deceased wrote upon a piece of paper the cause which prompted him to inflict the wound. He stated that during his sletp he dreamed that a policeman said he would put him ;in the stocks, and he replied that, rather than he should do so he would cut his throat. The policeman attempted to do so, and he then got up and took his penknife out of his pocket and inflicted the wound. The pain caused hini to awake, and he then walked to his sister's room, as stated above.l Infor mation of the deceased's death was forwarded yesterday to Mr. Green, the Coroner for the Honour of Ampthill, and the inquest will be held at the White Hart on Wednesday. LUNATIC ASYLUMS.—Yesterday, at the close of an inquest held in Coldbath-fields House of Correction, a long discussion took place between Mr. Sergeant. Adams, Mr. Wakley, and the medical gentlemen present, respecting the condition of lunatics, and the necessity that there existed for the erection of a new county lunatic asylum. Mr. Wakley said that when he visited, the Hanwell Asylum he'found in it sixteen paupers from the St. Pancras Workhouse, and that upon inquiry at the latter place he ascertained there were eleven other pauper lunatics in it waiting for admission into the asylum. Mr. Sergeant Adams said that in the Hanwell Asylum there were nearly 600 inmates, of whom only twenty appeared curable, and there were 450 lunatics whose friends were anxious to get them admitted, but for . whoni there was no room. He deprecated the proposition to raise:the asylum another story. Nothing short pf a new asylum, built upon an extensive plan, and free from iron bars or any appearance of restraint, would meet the exigency. The mild treatment in the Hanwell Asylum worked most beneficial, as was proved from the fact that, while the death§ in private asy lums were ninety per cent., they were only twenty-two in the Ilanwell. SUICIDE OF A POST-OFFICE CLERIC.--Yesterday, Mr. Biggs held an inquest on the body of Henry Liddell Davis, a clerk in the General Post-office, aged twenty-one, at his residence, 29, Shaftesbury-terrace, Vauxhall Bridge road. Mr. Dermott, a surgeon, said deceased had been re siding with him at the above address for the last five weeks, and that on Saturday morning deceased's mother called him (witness) upstairs. He responded to the call, and going up into deceased's bed-room he found him lying dead prostrate on the floor, in a pool of blood that had issued from a wound in the throat, dividing the wind-pipe and carotid artery, and which was six inches long and two deep. Two razors, with one of which he had inflicted the fatal wound, were lying on a chair close to the body. Deceased always appeared to him in a desponding state. Mr. Bloxam,' a surgeon, of 59, Ebury street, said he had attended deceased professionally, off and on, for the last two years. Just a year ago he had an attack of yellow jaundice, which, with the remedies used, left him so much debilitated, that he had been in a state of mental prostration ever since. In October, in consequence of symp toms of great excitement he exhibited, Dr. Sutherland_; was consulted, and he was placed in that gentleman's asylum at Chelsea, but after the expiration of a month, becoming calm and rational, he was allowed to come home. He suffered from religious delusion, fancying himself unfit to receive salvation in the world to come. Verdict, " Temporary insanity." We understand, on the authority of a gentleman now in his 82d year, and an observer of the weather, that the pr6sent season has not been. equalled in dry - nes§ since the year 178;5, which is a lapse of 59 years. The meteorologists have as yet assigned no cause for this unusual phenomenon.— Berksliire Chronicle.

[TRANSLATION.] IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. WITHIN the last three years, H.R.H. the DUKE of NORMANDY having offered his INVEN TIONS In WEAPONS of WAR to the Government of her Britannic Majesty, and his offers not having been accepted, the Prince has come to the determination of announcing to the public that he intends to DISPOSE OF THEM by SALE, on the annexed Terms. These Inventions consist of— L A Cannon with an optical sight, of which the range Is twice that of the ordinary Cannon. 2. A description of Bombs which explode the moment they touch the object against which they are fired, and of which the force is so great that they will destroy every fortification struck by them. 3. Canon Rockets, so constructed that they preserve the line in which they are fired, with the same certainty as a ball ; every kind of cannon is capable of discharging them ; they are fired without sticks, and their destructive power is such that nothing can resist them ; every vessel struck by one of these weapons is infallibly des troyed. Some explode when they reach their mark—others in two or three minutes afterwards ; some of them are capable of suffocating the crew of a ship, and others will sat fire to a building without the possibility of extinguishing the flames : they will pierce the sides of a ship of war, even though it were constructed of iron. 4th. A Machine of War, which placed either on the surface of the earth or beneath it, on the surface of the sea or under it, will pre vent any enemy, whatever may be his number or force, from ap proaching the frontiers of a country, or the entrance of a sea-port ; this machine, which may be divided into parts, may be placed, as occasion may require, in the manner of artillery, and by the effects it is calculated to produce protects by itself, without need of direction, the nation possessing its secret. On the sea it will blow vessels of war out of the water ; on land, it will annihilate armies or detach ments. By means of this machine, fortifications of every kind will be rendered useless. sth. Hand Rockets, constructed to defend a town against an army that should attempt to enter it; or as a defence on the sea against a pirate vessel, against which, by this weapon, a simple fishing-boat would be rendered safe. With the same weapons on board, a mer chant vessel has nothing to dread from the largest ship of war. TERMS OF THE SALE. Guineas.

THE LYcLum.—Last evening a new dramatic sketch, entitled The Three Era Diavolos, by the author of Polka mania, wag produced at the Lyceum, under favourable auspices. The plot, in a few words, may be said to describe the adventures of a party of English fashionables at Rome. The ladies Iro )ose an excursion to the ruins of Adrian's Villa, near Tivoli, and this reaching the ears of their gallants, they proect a surprise of their fair tourists, in the characters of the Era Diavolos. This is followed by a similar plot of their servants to ft ighten their masters, while they in turn ' are set upon, as well as their employers, by the dreaded ban ditti they were personating, and, after being stripped and ill treated, only escape death or captivity by the unexpected ar rival of the papal soldiery. So ends the piece. The prin cipal characters were performed by Messrs Vining, Keeley, and Wigan ; an I Miss Woolgar, Mrs. Woollidge, and Miss Turner, who certainly contributed in no small degree to the SUCCOB3 of the piece. COURT CIRCULAR. His Royal Higness Prince Albert went yesterday morning to the Society of Arts in the Adelphi, for the distribution of prizes. His Royal Highness was attended by Mr. George Edward Anson, Lord George Lennox, and Major-General Sir Edward Bowater.

Soon after the arrival of the King at Lambeth Palace a dejeune was served to his Majesty and suite. The King of Saxony also walked through the Surrey Zoological Gardens, and inspecteci4he interior of the extensive brewery of Messrs. BarclaY and Perkins. His Majesty, attended by his suite, returned to Buck ingham Palace at half-past six o'clock in the evening. The Queen and Prince Albert walked yesterday morn ing in the royal gardens of Buckingham Palace. Their Royal Highnesses the mince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, were taken their accustomed daily airings yesterday in the royal gardens.

FIRING HAMPSTEAD-HEATll.—Between seven and eight o'clock on Sunday evening the neighbourhood of Hamp stead was much disturbed, in consequence of a report that Hampstead-heath had been set on fire. This statement proved true, and on a body of the S division of police, from the station in Heath-street, arriving on the heath, they dis covered the furze near the Spaniards Tavern, and the Earl of Mansfield's, in flames, to the extent of between thirty and forty yards, and it was with considerable difficulty it was ex tinguished. In the case of " Franklin v. Neate," reported yester day, Baron Parke ordered a verdict to be entered for the defen dant, as in his opinion the plaintiff was not legally entitled to recover. This is substantially deciding the case in defendant's favour, unless the Judge's decision be overruled. DESTRUCTION BY FIRE OF 500 QUAILS.—On Sun day night, about 11 o'clock, a fire broke out in the cellar of the house No. 23, 'Turnmill-street, Clerkenwell, in the occu pation of Mr. Davenham, an extensive dealer in pigeons, quails, &c., who a few months ago by a similar calamity lost above 1,000 pigeons. The discovery was made by policeman Ware, G 140, who saw a body of smoke issuing from the cellar, and gave an immediate alarm. At that time the in mates were in bed, but they all succeeded in making their escape by jumping out of the window, with the exception of Mr. J. Porter, brother-in-law oaf Mr. Davenham. He was in a room on the second floor, where he was discovered asleep by a man in charge of the Hatton-garden fire -escape ladder, and was let down by that machine amidst the cheers of the spectators, the flames then rapidly ascending the staircase. The Faringdon-street, engine, followed by those from White cross-street and Watling-street, attended by Mr. Braidwood, quickly arrived, and there being an abundant supply of water, the fire was soon overcome, the lower part of the house alone being damaged. There were in the cellar above 500 quails in cages, all of which were destroyed. Mr. Davenham is insured in the Hand-in-Hand. A man nearly lost his life while the. fire was raging by falling into the cellar, but was fortunately rescued by the firemen. lie, however, was much hurt, and was obliged to have surgical assistance.

Yesterday, the annual ceremony of the distribution of the rewards adjudged by the Society of Arts during the present session, was held at the rooms of the Society, in John street, Adelphi. His Royal Highness Prince Albert presiding on this occasion, a very numerous company was assembled, among whom we observed the Duke of Sutherland, the Mar quis of Northampton, and many other members of the nobi lity. The three Asiatic Princes, at present on a visit to this country, named Meergafus Aleekham Bahadoor, Meer Mo hamed Alee Risoldar, and Loatfullah Khan, were also present. Mr. Edward Taylor paired off against the second reading of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill with Captain Vivian. Captain Mervyn Archdall, for county Fermanagh, paired off on Thursday night with Sir W. W.

The following announcement lately appeared in a Jersey journal :—" To be sold, 1311 aw suits, the property of an advo cate retiring from business. N.B. The clients are rich and obstinate." A new piece was produced 'at the Lyceum last night, called the Three Fra Diavolos ; it was entirely successful. Last night the Standing Committee of the Friends of Jus tice met at Anderton's Hotel, Fleet-street, to arrange for a great public meeting, to be held early next week at the great room in the Saville Palace, Leicester-square. At the first meeting R. Taylor, Esq., common councilman of the City of London, presided. Last night R. Barrett, Esq., was in the chair, Mr. M. P. Haynes acting as secretary. The meeting will have its attention called to the unconstitutional character of the late legal proceedings in Ireland. Count Ostrowski was one of the company at the Polish Ball. He was presented to the Lady Patronesses, and was indeed one of the lions of the evening, the charge against him being considered a very ridiculous one. It was stated in the ball-room that the Emperor of Russia did not purchase a ticket for the occasion. The news from the United States, respecting the annexa tion of Texas, and the tenor of the news from Paris, with respect to Morocco, hae produced an uneasy feeling on the Stock Exchange, and caused some speculative sales in the English funds. THE PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY. The concert of last night was announced as being " by command" of her Majesty; and it was understood that the same illustrious party (with the exception of the Emperor of Russia) who visited the Opera on Saturday were to honour the concert with their presence. The crowd, consequently, was immense, and the room had a most brilliant appearance. At: half-past eight the royal party entered the room, and took their places in the space set apart for them immediately in front of the orchestra. There were present her Majesty and Prince Albert, the King of Saxony and his suite, the Dukes of Cambridge and Wellington, the Duchess of Bite clench, Earls Delawarr, Jersey, and Falmouth, Sir Edward Bowater, the Hon. C. Murray, Lady Catherine and Miss Cavendish, the Hon. Miss Liddell, and Lady Macdonald. When the Queen appeared, the audience rose and greeted her Majesty with a burst of applause, and " God save the Queen" was played by the orchestra. The concert, though excellent, presented little novelty. It opened with Beethoven's colossal symphony in C minor, which was most magnificently performed. The effects of Mendelssohn's superintendence were apparent, not only in the increased precision and aplomb of the whole performance, but in several new effects produced by accelerating and re tarding the movement, and the subdued and delicate execu tion of the piano passages. Mozart's beautiful air, " Oh, cara immag,ine," from the Flauto Magic°, was then admirably sung by Signor Salvi. There was next a concertante for four violins, played by Sivori, Blagrove, Willy, and Sainton, with full orchestral accompaniments. Sterndale Bennett's very clever overture, The Naiades, concluded the first part. The second part consisted almost entirely of Mendelssohn's overture and music for the .21/idsumnier Night's Dream, which had been performed at the previous concert. In its repe tition it was even more effective than before. It was listened to with the deepest attention, and applauded with enthu siasm. The concert terminated with an overture by Schubert—by no means such a composition as we should have expected from the author of so many beautiful and imaginative songs. The royal party remained till the con clusion of the concert. A plan is in agitation for sending to the Australian colonies one entire regiment, annually. We shall hail the adoption of such a measure with feelings o f lively satisfaction , for it will put an end to the demoralising ef fects p roduced by a corps being divided into fragments for a continuous period of three years, one part being at Chatham, another at the antipodes, and others at sea on their outward voyage. The proposed arrangement would also lead to . another beneficial result; it would enable the Commander-in -Chief to relieveone regiment per year in Indi a, independently of extra re liefs, and thus shorten the long and arduous tour . of duty of the corps serving in that country.—UnitedSeniee Gazette. A RoYAr. PBESENT.—Amongst the many fine cattle shipped per the steamer for London, on Wednesday last, an ox of the Angusshire breed attractel general admi ration, on account of its beautiful symmetry and • grftt size and weight.

DETERMINED SUICIDE FROM FEAR OF WANT.— Yesterday afternoon, Mr. Wakley. M.P., held an inquest at the Royal Standard, Sale-street, Paddington, on the body of Joseph Paice, a butler, out of place. From the evidence it appeared that the deceased had been in a very melancholy mood in consequence of being out of a situation for the. last nine months.
