It nn fertunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul gence and vicious habits, while suffering trom their invariable con sequences, unwisely entertains a fear of applying to a qualified physi cian for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro neously entertained that these complaints are beyord the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking or assistance where alone it can bo procured.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS. IPSWICH. APRIL IC. The supply of wheat at market this day was small, and the growers were unwilling to submit to the reduction advised of in London on Monday. It sold at a slight abatement upon last week's price. Of barley there were stveral samples very fine in quality, but the malsters having secured their quantity for the season this article met a very dragging sale. Malt neglected. PER QUARTER.'

Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—Arrivals in crease—the trade does not improve, and is altogether in a very unsatisfactory state ; millers are merely buyers from hand to mouth, although no doubt universally low in stock, and the supply of English is fully adequate to this kind of buying without foreign, which is also generally hrld for com paratively higher terms. Farmers brought forward a mode rate supply of wheat for this day's market, and which met a free sale at Is below the current rates of last week. Very little doing in foreign, for the reason assigned above, and no extent of choice on the market. Only the finest and picked samples of barley are now taken by our maltsters, and such are not procurable on lower terms; other descriptions of malting are next to unsaleable, while grinding goes off pretty freely at our low quotations, and some few parcels have been taken off the market by speculators. Beans are somewhat firmer, and not many remaining on sale except Egyptian, of which a large cargo is afloat. Very little business passing in either oats or peas. Buyers have the advantage in linseed, which is dull, and cakes are easier to buy. We are without a quotation for rapeseed, and rape cakes suffer a decline. Bones are firmer.

Sift,—Since tee publication in The Sun of a letter which I lately addressed to you on the subject of the Solicitor General's Bill for facilitating the sale of en cumbered estates, two letters have appeared in the Irish papers, in which the writers, Mr. Stelleir, the Member for the borough of Carlow, and Mr. VincentScully—like - vvise, I believe, a Member of Parliament—express au anxious desire to promote the object of what appears to me, in common with yourself, au ill-advised, because most partial, adaptaticn of a measure, which might be rendered extremely useful if but equitably applied. I should certainly be slow to assume that these gent:e men mean to adopt in its entirety the famous maxim of that notable Jurist, Monsieur Prudhon, "La propr'6.4 cost le vol," and to deal with property accordingly, but I must say that in the present instance they teem to me to advocate that very ancent yet somewhat question able practice of politics' economists, keine n in the homely language of our forefathers as " the robbing Peter to pay Paul." Having pointed out the very restricted lino of argument to which both thes3 Learned Gentlemen have so closely con fined themselves, whilst pursuing it at groat length— vie., " that considerable benefit would be conferred on certain parties by the Bill in question"—the damage likely to accrue therefrom to others being deemed un worthy of consideration, I will not follow it further, granting that such might be its effect; but shall merely observe in a general way, that their argument is equally applicable to the defence of robbery in its most simple form. A ten-pound note pilfered from my pocket might doubtlessly prove useful as well as wele 'me to somebody else; but whether the utility of robbery be thereby de monstrated, is a question which need hardly be put even to those who have so largely employe' a similar method of reasoning. But to return, Sir, to the purpose with which I first wrote to you, I would ask Englishmen to take a more extended view of the proposed measure than has yet bet n opened to them by any of its advocatos, to consider whether its provisions be grossly unjust towards the unencumbered owners of land in Ireland; and if they be, whether the measure itself can prove wefil to the country at large? It has often been asked, why Ireland has ever thus bitterly com plained of English rule ? It is because this practice o f legislating for expediency, without regard to e q uit y , has bred in that country a contempt f the law as a thing wholly apart from justice. After the experience of era turies, is then the system to be persevered in and with a people whose characteristic trait is still, as it was in the days of Coke and Davis, that " under the sun the:a are no greater lovers of justice;" but before English men can rightly understand this question as it regards Ireland, they must be informed how utterly different tire the circumstances of landed property here from what they are in England. Why, at the present time it is next to an impossibility to procure money upon its se curity, be that ever to good. This, however, they may be enabled to comprehend by recalling the somewhat analogous position of the mercantile interest in England in the autumn of 1847, when men of great wealth and undoubted credit were brought to the verge of bankruptcy by the restriction of money; let them picture the Go vernment as coming forward on that occasion with a Bill enabling the Bank of England to relot its rules in favour of a particular section of a particular class of merchants, and that in such a manner as would necessarily increase the pressure on the remaining portions of the mercantile interest, what reception would such legislation have met with in England? Would it have teen tolerated? Yet similar in character is the mode of legislation which it is now proposed to apply to Ireland. But I hope that ere this sufficient cause has been shown by others to justify the demand that full and mature consideration be given to Sir John Romilly's Bill, and asking leave to thank you for the space in your columns which has already been allowed me for this purpose, I remain, Sir, your most obedient servant, C. 11. BOWEN. Monlistowr, April id. MADAME PULSzaT'S "MEMOIRS OF A HUNGARIAN LADY."—The Edinburgh Rettiew, just published, contains a very itifeititilig notice of this tethathable work. "The nationality of the people, their martial prowess, and present unhappy fate (say s the Review) have invested Hungary with the interest of a second Poland, 'and Western Europe must be naturally desirotts to learn something of their civil and social life. These 'Mantes Are the joint production of M. and Madame Pulszky. While the latter tettitis het impressions and recollections of Hungarian life, we have to thank M. Pulsaky fot a very able summary . of the history of Hungary, from the days of Arpad to the reign of Ferdinand the First, and the reform illoitenient—nt history which abounds in in teresting incidents and useful lessons for the statesman and the philosophic historian. Madame Prilszk,y's narrative of her wanderings and dangers is agreeably diversified with sketches and anecdotes front Magyar life, as well as with ancient legends from Hungarian history and modern pas- Sagea in the late war of independence. It cannot fail to ex cite an interest in all classes of readers—in those who open a book only for amusement, as well as in those who look to literature for something more enduring." SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—About ten o'clock yester day morning John Jane, one of the men employed to unload the ice from the barges at the Wenham Lake Ice Company's stores, near the Waterloo-bridge, met with so serious an ac cident that his life is despaired of. The blocks of ice are this year unusually large, some of them exceeding 50111 b. in weight, and a horse is employed, by means of ropes and tackle, to raise them from the barge to a platform, from which they are carted for storage to the ice-houses. The un fortunate man was employed to detach the blocks from the ice-tongs on its reaching the platform. By some means one of the blocks in its ascent caught the beam which crosses the barge, and the horse, not being stopped in time, pulled down the poles to which the tackle was fixed and the plat form, from which the poor fellow was precipitated head fore- Most, and fractured his skull. He was immediately con veyed in a cab to the Westminster Hospital, and, from the extent of his wounds, not the slightest hopes are entertained of his surviving more than a few hours. DISCOYERT of HUMAN REMAINS.—On Friday, as the workmen on the Gloucester and Dean Forest Railway were sinking for ballast gravel on a part of the estate of Mr. T. G. Parry, at Higham, near this city, they disinterred twelve skeletons, all apparently the remains of full grown men. Some of the skeletons were lying somewhat con fusedly, as if the bodies to which they once belonged had been rather carelessly consigned to their common grim; but others, and one in particular, had evidently been respectfully interred, and the coffins formed of blocks of Painawick stone, had been built round them. It is conjectured that -they - were the bodieS of some of the officers and soldiers who fell at the siege of Gloucester during the civil wars between Charles I. and Ws Parliament,_ cultenhani thrurnal. OVERLAND MAIL INDIA AND CHINA. We have received:accounts• in anticipation of the Overland Mail, will dates from Bombay to the 16th of March ; Madras, 13th of March ; Calcutta, 7th of March ; and Hong-Kocg, 27th of February. Sir Charles Napier issued a general order on the subject of the mutiny of the • 66th Bengal Native Infantry, by which that regiment is disbanded, its colours being delivered over to the Nussaree battalion, which is henceforth to be denominated " the 66th or Goorka Regiment." The result of the expedition sent from Peshawur against the hill tribes near Kohat has not proved so satisfactory as w as at first antici pated. The object of the expedition was to reinforce the post of Kohat, which had been cut off and endangered by the insurrection of these tribes, to chastise them for their uprovoked massacre of our Sappers and Miners, and . to clear the passes and restore the communication between Pesbawur and Kohat. The first object has been at tained by the re-inforcement of .Kohat, but in traversing what Sir Charles styles " a dangerous defile 145 miles in length, exposed to a constant fire of matchlockmen," Sir C. Campbell has lost 107 of all ranks, killed and wounded, which is supposed greatly to exceed the loss of the enemy. The passes still remain closed; the enemy are said to be highly. exasperated at what has occurred ; and a second pedition on a larger-scale, is talked of. Sir Cht4lell Napier was breendldaliore. Colonel Yoitini a her Majesty's 10th Foot, died at Vizierabad orCalaF 20th of February. The ex-Maharajah DlitiJeep Singh had arrived at his place of exile, Futtyghur, on the 12th of February. Some disturbance has been crested in Assam by the hill tribes of its frontier: The accounts of the destruction of the town of Mulkapore, in the Nizsm's dominions, is con firmed. The anarchy and bankruptcy of that state appear worse than ever. Trade at Bombay is im proving slightly. Sir Charles praises the conduct of Colonel Brad ford, Ist Light Cavalry, on the occurrence of the mutiny, as "decided and judicious." He expresses his approbation of " the prompt, decided, and reso lute conduct of Captain INl'Domald, the fort adjutant, which conduct the Commander-in-Chief believes pre vented the Fort of Govindghur from falling into the hands of the mutineers." Major Troup's conduct on the occurrence of the mutiny is lauded as "cool, re solute, and deserving of the highest praise ; but he is severely reprimanded far disobedience of orders in not having previously at Lucknow read and explained to the Sepoys of his regiment the Governor-General's order of October 2.5, 1844, which was intended to prepare the Sepoy regiments about to enter the Pun jaub for the withdrawal of Sinde allowances. For the future, Govindghur will not he trusted to Native troops alone, a wing of one of the European corps at Lahore being detached to form part of the garrison. Sir Charles Napier has issued a general order econ cerning the expedition against the A ff ueedies , highly complimentary to all engaged, and d tailed accounts of the operations of this four days' campaign, have appeared in the Indian newspapers. Sir Charles Napier states the objects of the expedition to have been "to chastise the Affoeedies, and to reinforce the force of Kohat which, by their insurrection, had been cut off and placed - in danger." Tne chastisement ap pears to have been insufficient, for the passes are still closed, and another Affoeedie expedition is talked of, but the fort of Kohat has been successfully rein forced by Cooke's Punjaub Infantry and Daly's Pun jaub Cavalry. The Commander-in-Chief thus shortly describes the nature of the operations :—" The fighting and labour fell upon those wbo had to scale the preci• pices, to secure the camp, and, when marching, to protect the front, flanks, and rear of the column, while passing twice through a. dangerous defile of thirteen miles in length, under a constant fire from matchlockmen." _ - _ The ex-Maharajah Dhuleep Singh arrived at his place of exile (Futteghur) on the 12th of February. A garden has been made, and the grounds cf the house in which he resides have been laid out very tastefully for him. The Commission appointed to inquire into the chirges of forgery in interpolating a treaty, brought against Ali Morad Khan, of Khyrpoor, consists (J . ' Mr. Pringle, Commissioner in Sinde, who is Presi dent ; Major Lang, Political Agent in Katte , .var ; and Major Jacob, commanding Linde Irregular Horse. _ _ _ _ JA.,I• The Calcutta Englishman reports some distnrb ances on the frontier of Assam, occasioned by a bill tribe, called Nagas, having succeeded in driving a large detachment of Sepoys out of their hills, by burning their provisions. One of the drying-houses at the Madras powder mills blow up on the 14th of March, killing fiur men and wounding others. The cause of the accident is unknown. The accounts of the districts of Mulkapoor were confirmed, the Rsjoop faction, assisted by about 200 Seikhs, were victorious o ve r th e M uss ulmans and their allies, but a body of th e v i c t ors were inter cepted and deprived of their pl un d er by the troops sent from Aurungabad to quell the riot. The Nizsm's financial and Ministerial difficulties remained unabated, and a crisis in both cases appeared im minent. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

We mentioned report as was cu rrent, leaving our readers and the e d Go vernment paper to make what they lik e d o f it. in Shares, generally speaking, have maintained their value. Orientals, in particular, have been i n goo d requ e st, some orders from home having bean executed at prices varying from 171 to 171 per cent, discount. th. We rejoice to find Europeeu capitalists turning their attention to this stock, feeling convinced that the smaller the num ber of local shareholders there are, natives, the less subject will it be to those vi s S ecia e fl il u y etuations which in times of panic are so prejudicial ent t the . inter rests of the general body of proprietors and stability of the institution. On the termination of the Hooli holydays it was ex ptcted that business in our import market would have presented some considerable animation, but this has not been the case to quite the extent which was looked for. Tne dulness in the export market noticred in our last still an continues, there being scarcely y p educe procurable for shipment. Cotton Piece Goods —The business d one i n th ose goods has been toe ra ther large extent ; but pri c es have slightly receded during the fortnight, owing to the holders of stocks, who were anxious to take advantage of the favourable rates o f exchange on En gland lately ruling, having forced larg e sales upon the market.

HONG-KONG, FEB. 27.—The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Pekin arrived here on the 17th inst., bringing accounts from England to the 24th of December. We have little of interest this month to report. The Chinese holidays commenced on the 12th, and lasted ten days, causing, as usual, an interruption to business. The Apollo troop-shin, with the head-quarters of the 59th regiment, arrived here on the 9th, after a passage from England of 236 days, having bad to put into Rio Janeiro in consequence of the cholera having broken out on board. The number of deaths, however, did not exceed twelve. The Apollo sails from this on the Ist proximo, and takes home the 95th Regiment, after thirteen years service in the East. The holidays have passed over quietly at Can ton, and business is now being resumed, with anl indication of improvement in most articles of import. Matters remain in statu quo at Macao. Various rumours are afloat as to the intentions of the new Governor when he arrives with the force under his command. Dates from Shanghai are to the 19th inst. Little doing owing to the holidays. Silk continued scarce, and prices were expected to undergo a further ad vancc. The export from China up to this date, com pared with that of last year, is about 1,300 bales short, and is still not expected to exceed 13,000 to 14,000 hales in all. Her Majesty's ship Cleopatra left this for Bombay on the 2d instant. Her Majesty's steamer Fury is expected up with Commodore Piumridge. The Royalist has returned from a cruise. The Mariner has left for Amoy, to relieve the Reynard. Her Ma jesty's ship Hastings and steamer Medea are in the harbour. The Medea leaves for England, via Singa pore and Bombay, on the 10th proximo. Her Ma jesty's brig Arab is at Whampoa and the Hon. Com pany's steamer Phlegethon at Canton. The Pilot is at Shanghai. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CANTON MARKET. HONG KONG, FEB. 27. Since our last the Chinese holidays have interfered with business, and tho transactions have consequently been limited. A good demand at improved rates is now expected.
