The Ist of October has passed over and as yet, we are rejoiced to soy, the military surgeons in the Bri tish service remain undegraded. The execution of the infamous and atrocious crder issued by the military authorities for the purpose of degrading medical officers of the army, by devolving on them the duties which in civil life are never performed save by the common hangman, has been deferred, and those who aimed at insulting the medical profession generally, by thus wantonly seeking to degrade the military por tion of it, have been signally disappointed. The de ferring the execution of this order enjoining medical officers in the army to mark deserters with the letter D until further orders, is, we consider, tantamount to an absolute rescinding of the obnoxious document, and are content for the present to let matters remain in statu quo ; but should any attempt be made to degrade the medical military officers and insult the medical profession by issuing such further orders, we know that the membersofthe m tn ed v ic in al di p e r a o t f e es t s h i e o i n r are fully prepared and determined in sultednt h d a i v g e n t unwittingly The concoctors of this precious docu ment conferred a great boon upon the me members of the profession whom they sought to degrade —they have taught medical men the power, the political power which they possess when acting together, and they have forced them to learn the methods by which they may organize themselves so as best to exert that power. We urge the medical men of the kingdom to still continue their organization, it is not alone sufficient to have secured the suspension merely of one obnoxious order on the part of the mili tary executive, there are other grievances to be re dressed, and although the members of the profession may be content to forego indemnity for the past, they should not cease their exertions until they shall have at least secured indemnity for the fu ture. The wrongs of the Assistant- Surgeons of the Navy still continue, in too many instances, unre dressed ; in some cases the resolution of the House of Commons is openly set at defiance by the naval officers in command of her MAJESTY'S ships and vessels, and by the Lords Commissioners of the Ad miralty, whilst, in others, the letter of the resolution is complied with, but its spirit is evaded. Now the members of the profession generally, owe it to their medical brethren in the naval service not to cease their exertions until they shall have secured to every assistant-surgeon not merely a cabin to himself, but that to which he is entitled by his education and by his position in society, the respect and the treatment due to a gentleman. But it is not to the military or naval services that the wrongs of the medical profession are confined, the treatment which the medical officers of poor-law unions hare uniformly received, both from the Poor-law Commis sioners and from boards of guardians, has been such as no member of a learned profession ought to sub mit to. The unfortunate medical officer of a poor law union has to undergo in any one day as much physical labour as any two labouring men in his parish, whilst his pay, after deducting the necessary expenses, is not much more than that of one, and is not nearly that of a journeyman mechanic or handi craftsman, or of a person employed in a factory ; he is snubbed by the Commissioners for doing those things which, should he leave undone, he is snubbed by the guardians, whilst the unfortunate medical officer is held by the public responsible for all the faults that may be committed by the other officials. Should the relieving officer neglect or refuse to obey his orders for giving relief, or should the master of the workhouse neglect his duty, the public blame the unfortunate medical officer, who is thus made the scapegoat of the establishment. These are grievances which should be redressed, and which could be redressed if the members of the medical profession were to exert themselves fur that purpose. No men possess such power of influencing the votes of the electors both in town and country as do the medical men, and if they exert that influence by ex plaining to their friends and patients, who may chance to be voters, the wrongs and grievances under which the members of the medical profession labour, and by endeavouring to induce those electors with whom they are thus intimately acquainted to exact a pledge from every candidate for their suffrages at the next election that he will, should he be elected, co-ope rate with those Members of the House of Commons who possess the confidence of the profession in endhvour ing to procure a redress of those grievances, there can be no doubt but berore the first session of the new Parliament shall have closed the members of the medical profession will be placed in the social position which they are justly entitled to occupy, not only by their talents and education, but by their unwearied devotion in comforting the afflicted and by their unbounded charity to the poor and distressed, for whom they make daily greater sacrifices than all the supporters of all our charitable estubtishments put together. As might readily have been anticipated, a strong memorial has been prepared at Liverpool for presen tation to the Earl of CARLISLE, as Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, calling for the most stringent investigation into the recent extraordinary and al most unaccountable proceedings of the Judge of the County Court of that important town. This docu ment, which has already received numerous and in fluential signatures, contains a simple and straight forward statement of the treatment of Mr. WHITTY by the Learned Judge, which it justly describes as being " pre-eminently harsh, vindictive, and oppressive," while the conduct of the defendant, under all the trying and painful circumstances of the case, was "patient, respectful, and forbearing." It then truly declares that the construction put upon the clauses of the Act (9 and 10 Vicroaia, c. 95, s. 113 and 114), in reference to cases of contempt, is unconstitutional and illegal, and alludes t° "his unprecedented assumption of au thority," and in attempting "the temper which he displayed to enforce that authority," as demon strating th at b e hes not " the moderation and equa nimity" es sent i al to the character of a county court judgeand sli g h t l y alludes to the alienation of the , trc an lunngecaopmecmteudnmityea,sui nr measure," consequenceresort resorted to f of o r t the h e " p violent of upholding " the dignity of h render that t r ib una l comp arativiesl y court" usel , e s s 7 s h o i o long u a s s t he is suffered to preside therein. We are quite satisfied that this earnest protest of the inhabitants of th e commercial metropolis l Eng land will receive the p rompt and impartialaotiteEng ot" the accomplished and am i a bl e nobleman to Zion om it is addressed, and to which it is so eminently en titled. We cannot for a moment suppose, th at be cause the family of Mr. Itasisuay had been connected in business relations with that of his noble patron for many successive years, or because it was on the no mination of the Earl of CARLISLE that he received his appointment, there would be any attempt on the part of his present judge to shelter him from the con sequences of his outrageous proceedings. Far from it. We are convinced that the subject will receive the most calm and attentive consideration of that Noble Earl, and that the ultimate decision will be in accordance l with what hi s L or d s hi p honestly and conscientiously beli eves to be th e real merits of the case. We -must also emphatically prot e st against the assertions tat his Lordship 14°Td shiP was influenced by any undue favouritism either, for the i mportant office, ta ce acquittal from the charges preferred p in his subsequent ges pref erre d aga i ns t hi m . We do n o t assert • ...AIISHAT'S was the best selection t h at could li be made from among LONDON, the many experienced and talented gentlemen of the northern circuit, who might have been willing to accept the situation, but from what we have been enabled to ascertain from those competent to form a sound and accurate opinion on his pretensioo, we believe that if in good health (of mind and body) ;;;.' was fully qualified for the efficient discharge of its duties, and that he might bear comparison with a large proportion of his judicial brethren with out suffering any injury from the result. Unfortunately, however, his health was ex ceedingly enfeebled, and he got into a state of ner vous excitement that led to a degree of irritability and eccentricity in his conduct, that strongly attracted the public attention, and led to the first complaints and the previous inquiry before the Chancellor of the Duchy. From the charges then preferred he was acquitted, or, at least, it was decided that "nothing had been established to warrant his removal from his situation." Had the Learned Gentleman de rived a salutary lesson from this escape it would have been fortunate for himself. Un happily, however, he took a different view. He brooded over his supposed wrongs until he lashed himself into a state of frenzy, and, in the words of the memorial, viewed everything in which his name was at all mixed up " through a distorted and dis tempered medium." He assumed that there was a conspiracy against him, and thought himself bound to crush it, and to vindicate the majesty of the law, attacked in his person. This fatal error induced him to institute those wild proceedings against a highly respectable and innocent individual, to whom he should have felt himself bound in gratitude, if capable of correctly judging how matters stood, in stead of looking on him as a bitter and implacable opponent. The temperate and admirable article which we extracted from the Liverpool Journal in our impression of Monday sufficiently indicates the nature of Mr. Wilerre's feelings, and affords the best answer to a letter from a correspondent, which, in accordance with his earnest appeal, and with the noble principle of audi alteram partem, we have inserted in our columns, although by no means agree ing in the views entertained by our correspondent, or for a moment assenting to the proposition that Mr. WniTrir did anything to merit the treatment which he received. We certainly had no prejudice against Mr. RAMSHAT previous to the account of his proceed ings ; if anything, our leaning was on the other side. But on perusing the account of these proceedings our views were in accordance with what, but for our correspondent's letter, we should have supposed to be the unanimous feeling of every disinterested and im partial person in the entire kingdom, viz., of deep and earnest sympathy with Mr. WHITTT in his un merited persecution, and of the imperative neces sity of affording speedy redress, so far as practicable, to that injured gentleman; and also immediately depriving his oppressor of the extensive powers which he has so shamefully and deplorably perverted. Mr. DISRAELI has made a second appearance before his constituents, and has repeated the opinions which so strongly excited the ire, or, to use an Americanism, " elevated the corruption "of the illustrious PAUL FOSKETT. Aye, and horribile dictu, he has been re ceived with as enthusiastic applause by the sturdy farmers of South Buckinghamshire, assembled at Salt Hill, as had previously been accorded to him by their more northern brethren at Aylesbury. It is thus manifest that the agriculturists of England have ar rived at a correct idea of their true situation, and that, in common with their leaders, they at length perceive the utter inutility of any convulsive and frantic efforts to resuscitate the departed monster monopoly. They now hear—it may be with regret) but also with patience and even approbation—the an nouncement that "protection to a particular class, kn. spective of all other classes, is quite out of the question ;" that " it is perfectly clear that the system which has been abrogated, or any system similar to it, cannot be restored unless there is an almost universal feeling in the country, unless the various classes of the country by sharp experience arrive at the conclusion that the principles on which our commercial system is founded are incorrect and injurious ;" and also that "it is quite clear that if this country arrive at that conclusion, it will not be in a haste or hurry." Hear this, ye CUORLERS and FOSKETTS, and stand aghast with horror. The restoration of protection is ad journed sine die by its most chivalrous and puissant champion, and the " traitor" is greeted with rapturous and enthusiastic applause in what was once one of your strongest holds. What can be done to avert the calamity, to restore the impotent agitation, and to prevent our commercial legislation—the public re cognition of free-trade principles, from being regarded as 1171 fait accornpli? Cannot GEORGE FREDERICK YOUNG be brought to the rescue? Where are BALL and BENNETT and their illustrious covertlres ? Some. thing must be done, and that right speedily, or the agriculturists may relapse into common sense, and begin to prepare themselves for the competi tion that must inevitably be encountered. It is a painful, a melancholy fact, but one unhappily but too well founded, that hence forward farmers must bestir themselves, must have a practical knowledge of the business in which they are engaged, and steady application to bring that know ledge into execution, before they can hope for success. Agriculture will no longer be a royal road to wealth ; the farmer cannot hope to devote his time to rural amusements, to hunting, shooting, or sporting, to the total neglect of his farm. If he should try to follow in the footsteps of his pre decessors, practicable only in " the good old times," when they were levying a " black mail" on their compatriots, he must inevitably go to the wall. But with experience, judgment and acti vity, accompanied by a reasonable amount of capital, success is still practicable, and if he cannot acquire wealth very rapidly, he may at least achieve independence and the enjoy ment of every reasonable comfort. What other class in the community is more favourably circumstanced ? Let farmers contrast their positions with those of any of their friends engaged in trading or commercial pur suits, or the practice of the learned professions, and they will find that so far from having cause for re pining, theirs is perhaps the most enviable condition of any. Let them, then, set their shoulders to the wheel, steadily and energetically. Let them remember the evil counsels of the professional agitators, and attend to their ow❑ affairs ; and if they enter into the po litical arena, let them direct their attention to some thing practical, where they have a prospect of a suc cessful termination to their exertions. SUDDEN DEATH Or COUNT REYENTLOW. —We learn with deep regret that his Excellency Count Revent low, the Danish Ambassador at St. James's, expired sud denly on Monday morning about three o'clock, in the Star Hotel, Glasgow. His Excellency, it app ears, h ad been pay ing a visit to Sir James Matheson, at Lewes, during the last five weeks, and arrived at Glasgow on Saturday even ing, accompanied by the Countess Reventlow, and his two daughters, the Ladies Hilda and Malvina Reventlow in route for London. His Excellency at that time seemed to be in good health, and he remained so, we are informed, until Monday morning about three o'clock, w h en h e b ecame suddenly ill, and expired almost instantaneously. Dr. Macfarlane and Dr. Clark were called in without delay, but it was of no avail. So far as could be ascertain e d w i t h out a particular post litortem examination of the body, a spasmod i c affection of the heart was the immediate cause of death. Count Reventlow has been for a considerable ti me t h e Danish Ambassador at the British Court, and was highly respected in that capacity by those with whom his official duties brought him into communication. During Monday fore noon Sir James Anderson and the Danish Consul, Mr. Westenholz, called at the Star Hotel , to offer their services to the Countess Reventlow ; but her Ladyship and her daughters had left for London by the express morning train. The body of the deceased followed by the evening train.

The over-zealous partisans of Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE are overstepping the bounds of prudence, and throwing off the mask too soon. One of them, Colonel DE BOISSE, commanding the 6th regiment of the!ins, has brought upon himself, in consequence of his awkwardness in blurting out the truth, a severe snubbing from the Minister at War. It appears that the colonel, a few days since, issued the following order of the day to his regiment, then in garrison at Metz:— " The Chief of the State, who is not ignorant how much the 6th regiment of the line since 1830 has shown itself devoted to order and the country, does it the honour to call it to Paris. The 6th is the only one of the four regiments charged to practise firing which makes a movement this year. The colonel has made himself responsible to the Prince President that it is worthy in every respect of that unexam pled favour; he did that with the certainty that, under all circumstances, the 6th will justify his promise, carry high its flag, and not compromise the responsibility which its chief has felt pleasure in undertaking. Ofileers, non-commissioned officers, and soldien I—We will remain men of duty and devotedness—all France may count on our patriotism. Yes, we will march as a single man, and your Col mei, who swears to show you the road, to plant the flag of order on :lie narrinide of anarchy, as formerly he planted, amidst the dead and the dying, ballets and grape shut, that of the nation on the breach of Contantino, only demands of you to avenge him, if he should fall beneath the shuts of the parri cides of our beautiful country. This order is to be read at two consecutive appeals. " DE GARDARENS DE BOISSE, " Colonel commanding the 6th Regiment of the Line." The Minister of War has caused the following " communicated note" on this order to be inserted in the Illoniteur de e Armie of yesterday : " The Minister of War has only known by the news papers the order of the day of Colonel de Gardarens, of the 6th of the line, leaving Metz. The formal expres sion of his dissatisfaction has not been delayed. From this order it might be supposed that the movements of troops are decided out of the pale of the action of the Minister, according to preferences without motive; it might bo believed that the Government attributes pecu liar bravery to certain corps. These are two errors. Reasons of service always weigh in the movements of troops, and the Minister of War knows that he can have equal confidence, for the defence of order and the laws in all the corps of the army." The funeral anniversary service for the late Queen HORTENSE was performed yesterday in the church of Rueil. The PRESIDENT of the Republic and the officers of his household, and a largo number of officer• and privates of the Imperial army, were present.: Public securities were again heavy at the Bourse.

Madrid journals of the 2d have arrived. _ _ The Herald() , which had proposed a subscription on behalf of the Spaniards wounded in defending Cuba, has the following announcement : Subscription in favour of the wounded of the 'bland of Cuba. " His Excellency, the Minister of her Britannic Ma jesty in this city, Lord Howden, as a soldier who has served with the Spani►h troops-5,000 reals." The name of no other subscriber is given. The Ileraldo, in announcing his Lordship's donation, publishes a long article in which it expresses the warmest gratitude to him. A decree, in the Gazette, enacts that the remains of Lieutenant- General ENNA, who was killed in Cuba, shall be brought to Spain, at the expense of the State, for in terment, and that his wife shall receive a pension of 20,000 reels. Another decree confers the ribbon of the Royal Order of .llaria Louisa o❑ the widow. By another decree a credit of 5,000,000 reals is accorded as a supplement to the regular budget of the 'War department, for purchasing Paixhan guns, and for arming the coasts of the Peninsula and the colonies ; and by another, the Minister of Ma rine is authorised to purchase two steamers of from 100 to 150 horse-power, for the service with Cuba. A royal order, addressed to the Captain- General of Cuba, is also published in the Gazette; it gives the warmest commendations to the troops for their conduct in the invasion, and also thanks the in habitants for what they did. It concludes by direct ing him to send a list of persons who may be worthy of receiving recompenses from the QUEEN. The Nacion says that it has been decided by the Council of Ministers that the Cortes shall meet on the Ist of November.

The Official Gazette of Berlin publishes a tele graphic dispatch from Frankf or t o f t h e 3d, announc ing that the Germanic Diet h as unan i mous l y reso l ve d that Prussia may withdraw her non-German pro vinces from the Confederation, in which they were incorporated in 18 . 48. This decision will, it is sup posed, have the effect of creating an additional obstacle to the demand of Austria to i n t ro d uce a ll h er non - German Statesinto the Confederation. On the latter de Frankfort publishes a note, that A us t r i a w ill no t f or the right so to d o ; but it presentsubject which insistthe J ournal intimates on her rmigahintttaoinsmatkheat any y n a g p l p a e n sith d and France have no n to the design, as it merely amounts to a defensive alliance between two states, which any Governments are at liberty to make, without the consent of any other power.

Th a t b o d y was equally divided on the subject, and, consequ en tly, th e proposition was negatived. But in a few days the citizens themselves are to meet to decide on it. The Chambers of Bayern re-assembled on the Ist, but it was expected that several days would elapse before they could seriously proceed to business. M.

ITALY. Accounts from Leghor4 state that two individuals were shot there on the 30th ult., in pursuance of the sentence of an Austrian court-martial. Letters from Florence of the Ist, in the Gen©a Gazette, state that the communal elections of that city have failed from the abstention of electors. A new election will consequently take place within a fortnight of that date. Letters from Rome, in the Ri s orgimento of Turin, state that the old regulations concerning the Israelites have been revived that they cannot travel within the Roman States without a permission from the Inquisition, nor atop in any place without a new permission. The Roman Government has guaranteed six per cent. upon the capital of 20 millions of Roman scudi (120 millions of francs) tor the Rome and Ancona Railway. The line which is to connect Tuscany with Bologna and the Lombardo Venetian provinces is also to be commenced without delay. CLOSE OF THE Exinninort.—A notice has been posted at the doors of the Great Exhibition building in Hyde-park, stating th a t t h e Exhib i t i on w ill p os iti ve l y close to the public on Saturday next, that the doors will be opened at nine o'clock on that day, instead of twelve, as hitherto on Saturdays, and that on that occasion no wheel chairs will be permitted to enter the building. This last regulation was, no doubt, necessary, in consequence of the large number of visitors who may be expected on the closing day, and in order to prevent inconvenience to the general public. STATE OF TRADE, MANCHESTER, OCT. 7.-Our market exhibits no change to-day, there being an almost complete cessation of business, owing to the alterations of the exchange, and the general preparations for the reception of the Queen.

The Produce Markets have opened this week rather heavily again for Sugar, but Coffee and Rice have been in improved demand. Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury give the following report:— " The quarterly sales of Indigo commenced yester day, consisting of 21,389 chests (including 8,586 chests of old goods, bcught in at, or withdrawn from, former sales, and 1,415 chests on second hand), com prising the following, viz.:—Catalogue A, 13,346 cheats of Bengal, (Jude, &c., 1,216 Madras, 1,047 Kurpah, 6 Bimlapatams, 23 Salem, 245 Calcutta. Fig. 48 Madras, 4,026 not printed and withdrawn up to the time of sale, and the rest in second hands. The qualities of Bengal aro about two-thirds good and fine, and ono-third middling and ordinary; the Madras, mostly ordinary, with a very small proportion of good and fine ; the Kurpah one-third good and fine, and two-thirds middling and ordinary ; the Bimlapatam and Salem good middling ; the Oude ordinary. The room presented a very full attendance, but there were but few of the home trade present. After the announcement of 313 chests withdrawn, in addition to those before advertised, the sale opened with a parcel of fine Bengal, of the mark J. and R. W., withdrawn from the July sale, to which strong support was given, but without producing the desired effect; a small parcel of Kurpaha which followed was taken out after trying a few lots at high rates; sub sequently, where there was more disposition to sell, some competition took place, and a fair quantity was sold. The rates ruled for fine Bengal, last sale's prices; consuming sorts about 2d. per lb. lower. Kurpah par to 4d. per lb. higher for good and fine, and par to 2d. per lb lower for middling and ordinary. 33 chests Madras in to-day's sale wore withdrawn, the rates required being above their value. 1,159 chests have passed to day, of which 384 were withdrawn."

Manning and Mackintosh should be able to bring them into a tan gible shape. The Governors of the Federal States, who had been called together to meet in Mexico, had not come forward to assist the President's Government, and all his Ministers had, in consequence, resigned. Mr. Ramiroz, said to be a man of talent and integrity, has been named Minister of Home and Foreign Affairs, and charged with the formation of a new Cabinet. The Ministry of Finance had been offered to Mr. Estava, but it was not known whether he had accepted.

The pre mium o❑ Exchequer-bills has been supported at 465., and on India Bonds has been 51s. to 525. East India Stock has been steady at 262.
