FRAMPTON'S PILL of HEALTH. The following testimoniai is another proof of the great efficacy of this medicine : " Winchmore Ilill, Middlesex, April 16, 1851. " Sir,—ln consideration of the great benefit I have derived from taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to you and the public to send you the following statement. For upwards of nine years I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion, but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief; and during this long period of time I have taken them i❑ preference to any other medicine ; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing to eqUal it. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully, THOMAS PROVINCE. " To Mr. T. Prout, 229, Strand, London. This excellent Family ' Pill is amediclne of long-tried efficacy for correcting, all disorders of the stomach and bowels, and is a pleasant, safe, easy aperient ; they unite the recommendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect, and require no re straint of diet or confinement dating their use.

SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, and Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London •Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. 'NIAY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from jtr mac irregularities and excesses, which have pro luced more misf.try in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to nrs - xlern pathologists. Long and practical experience in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist ence secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous Debility, various !onus of Insanity, Unhappy awl Unfruitful Marri ages, Impotency., Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless modifications owe their almost entire origin. It is absolutely* necessary that all mon should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring griever is penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of incanslderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigatet"l, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil . and its con'equenc es may be avoided, and above all, that there is see rcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure DOCTOR L.h.'.MERT has for a long series of years been engaged in an extensiv a practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, awl s the only legally qualified rhysician who, regardless of the taunts wad envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct attention to the so enormous evils, from which no grade of society is free. In select in g this department of practice, he has been amply ree arded by ti se great success that has attended his efforts in the treatment of ti ii cc cases, which are too generally confided to the care of unquabli ed and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated publications, as st tined foreign names and titles, and pretended *virtues of their patent m istrnms, have inflicted serious injury on those who have been twine' d to place faith in their pretensions.

The wreck Of the first-mentioned ship—the Duke of Wellington—took place on Cape Lip trop (Australia), on the night of the sth of last April, during a gale of wind ; and, by the aid of the life-boats, all hands were saved. That of the Emma occurred at Tongataboo, where she had put in to procure provisions and water, and while at anchor a heavy gale of wind drove the ship ashore on some reefs where she became a total loss. The crew and passengers were saved by the natives without loss of life, who throughout acted with good feeling. The passengers still remained on the island u hen the last accounts were sent off, the master, Capt. Cresswell, b e i ng una bl e to c h arter a vessel fur their con veyance to Sydney. The loss of the other vessel—the Cal dew--Captain Snow, master, was accompanied with melancholy circumstances, a number of the crew having, it is feared, perished in the boats from starvation. The ship was lost on a sunken reef in the Pacific, in latitude, by observation, 6.21. N., by chronometer, 161 43 W. (th e c h ar t s h ow i ng no dangers in that locality). It occurred on the afternoon of the 20th of last January, the weather extremely fine, scarcely a ripple being perceptible to indicate the exist ence of the reef. All hopes of getting the vessel off being dispelled, preparations were mode for abandoning her, and the crew commenced to fit and provision the boats ; this was done, so as to be in readiness for leaving at any moment, as it was not their intention to leave the wreck so soon, hut seeing how rapidly she was breaking up, the threatening appearance of the weather—the heavy swell rendering it difficult to keep . the boats from being knocked to pieces alongside—the immediate aban donment Was ultimately thought the wisest plan, the long-boat having already been driven by the rollers in contact with the wreck, thereby seriously damaging her. At 5.30 p.m. (Jan. 21) the two small boats were cast off ahead, to tow the long boat clear of the reef, and at 6 all three made sail, and their perilous voyage corn menceid. • It soon became dark and cloudy, with heavy, swells—the two smaller boats, from the darkness of the night, were soon lost sight et Fanning's Islands, being the nearest inhabited place, distant 247 miles, in a south easterly direction, it was ieir intention to steer thither, but from the boisterous state of tho weather, the violent squalls and heavy sea breaking on board, rendered it extremely difficult to keep the, boat free ; that idea was obliged to be given up. At 10 p.m. the squalls became terrific, the boat so nearly filling with water that part of the provisions and ,spare clothing had to be thrown over board. They were not able to carry sail, through the tempestuous weather. They exerted themselves to the utmost to reach the nearest land, though uninhabited, which was the Palmyras Island, about 50 miles distant. They were in hopes of falling in with the other two boats, but at daylight, on the following morning, Jan. 22, not a vestige of them could be seen. They then steered direct for Palmyras, hoping to reach it before dark, being then at noon, in lat. by calculation 5 49 N., long.. 162 S.W. A west 'course was steered for several hours, but they failed in sighting the island, passing it, as the master imagines, to the southward. The master then attempted to make Prospect Islands, in bit. 450 N., long 161 40 W. ; Samarang Islands, in lat. 456 N., long. 162 18 W., which both ended in disappointment. Up to this time the incessant rain, the chilling feeling during the night, the heavy seas constantly breaking on board,. and the sufferings they thereby endured, were dreadful. The next trial was to fetch the Enderby group, hoping, if successful, to procure some cocoa nuts, and repair the long boat, which was daily becoming more frail. After sailing for some days in lat. 2 48 S. long. 169 37 W., they succeeded in catching a shark, and the weather having moderated, with some difficulty it was cooked, this being the first warm meal they had partaken since leaving the wreck. By this time, from the want of proper nourishment, and constant exposure to intense heat and cold, &c., the bodies of the men were completely covered with sores. They then bore away, sanguine of making the Enderbys and Farmer's island ; both trips, however, were fruit less, they were unable to sight them. The men were almost exhausted, and despaired of ever reaching the shore alive. All that remained of their provisions were a few tins of preserved meats, about two gallons of lamp oil, and about 201bs. of saturated bread, resembling &high. With starvation staring them in the face, but with hope of speedy relief from their sufferings, they di, reeled their course towards the Duke of York and Cla rence Islands, and encountered further disappointment, and sufferings too horrible to describe. Happily, how ever, on the twenty-third day a vessel hove in sight, and bore down upon them. It proved to be the brig Eclipse, from San Francisco. It is needless to say that the poor fellows were taken on board, where they received the greatest kindness, • but several days transpired ere they recovered their lenses. The •Eclipse conveyed them to Sydney. Of the remaining poor fellows, in the two smaller boats, eighteen in number, nothing has since been heard, leaving little doubt as to their horrible fate by starvation. [PRICE SD. PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEE& THE DURHAM ELECTION PETITIONS WITHDRAWAL. —The select committee, of which Sir Frankland L ew i s was the chairman, appointed to inquire into the circum stances under which the petitions against the return of Mr. Atherton and Mr. Granger, have reported that the prayer of the petition under consideration was palpably illusory, and presented the remarkable anomaly of the opponents of a candidate praying that he might be . duly elected. That Mr. Coppock, who adopted the responsibility of this form of petition, stated it to be, in his opinion, the only means of putting an end to a petition which he believed to be frivolous and vexatious, and which means he considered to be rendered necessary in consequence of the course adopted by Mr. Brown ; that the committee regard with much disapprobation an attempt made on the one side to get rid of opposition to a candidate by the threat of a petition, and on the other the defeat of that petition by presenting another, the prayer of which was avowedly fictitious and illusory, and calculated to interfere with the rights of the consti tuency by inducing Parliament to delay the issue of the writ. The conunittee are of opinion that the state of the law, which permits the valuable right of petitioning to be perverted from a remedy-for public wrong into a weapon of electioneering warfare, deserves the serious consideration of the house.

(From the Times. ) The latest intelligence received from Constanti nople is of the 9th inst., and it confirms the state ment already transmitted to us by the telegraph, that on that day the Grand Vizier and Rescind Pasha, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, had been dismissed from their respective offices. The diplo matic body were taken by surprise when this announcement was conveyed to them, for the change does not seem to have originated in any political cabal of foreign powers, or, indeed, in any definite modification of internal policy. It was explained, as far as we have been able to ascertain, by the will of the Sultan, who thought he had reason to complain of the rivalry and personal dis sensions of his Ministers, and who had thereupon resolved to supersede the Grand Vizier, and to replace Reschid Pasha by Ali Pasha, the same who was Minister for Foreign Affairs in the au tumn, and has just been recalled from the govern ment of Smyrna. A few hours' consideration, however, served to convince the Sultan of the danger and inconvenience of such a modification in the executive government at such a crisis ; espe cially as it was Ali Pasha who was involved in the late disturbance at Smyrna, and he is consequently on indifferent terms with the Austrian Govern ment. His Highness resolved, therefore; to revoke his decision, and before the close of the day the Ministers were reinstated in their places. The next mail will probably bring us the protest of the Porte against the occupation of tho. Princ ipalities, and its public reply to the Russian mani festo. At the same time, it way understood that a - proclamation would. be issued to explain to the Turks the existing relations of their Government with the Christian Powers ; for, as we observed a few days ago, in the eyes of a liussuliaan a Chris tian friend is but one step removed from a Christian foe, and the aggressions of Russia are scarcely more offensive to the true believer than the pro tection of England and France. These feelings are now so strongly excited in many parts of the Turkish Empire, but especially in Constantinople and in the. European provinces, that we should be in no degree surprised at any violence they might display. The Sultan himself, and the more en lightened members of the Divan, who have laboured, and are still labouring, to connect the Ottoman Empire with the family of Christian States and the international relations of Europe, are objects of suspicion, perhaps of hatred, to the bigoted Turkish party, who conceive, not perhaps without reason,that their existence as a nation is inseparably connected with the ferocity and intolerance of their race. They feel that there can be, after all, no compromise between principles so dissimilar and religious senti ments so opposed to one another. Wherever the Mussulman creed ceases to predominate it soon ceases to exist ; and it ceases to predominate wherever its ascendancy is net supported by the rigour of absolute power and military force. Such was the termination of the Moorish occupation of Spain, which lingered for a few years only after the conquest of Grenada, and then died away. Such will one day be the fate of the Ottoman race in those fertile provinces in which the domination of a barbarous master is barely tolerated by the great majority of his subjects, though it is still treated as a necessary evil by the Christian Powers. The Porte itself is without the power to execute its own decrees of toleration, and it labours in vain to impress on its inferior officers the spirit of its own concessions. For although those concessions have by no means relieved the Christian population of Turkey from all the evils it has to endure, they have sufficed to kindle the ercest resentment among the extreme Turkish party, and the appeal which has recently been made by the Porte, in self-de fence to the martial spi r it o f th e army an d the Redd' or militia (in which no Ch r i s ti an i s su ffered to bear arms) has, of course , g i ven grea t er i n t ens ity to these passions of reli g i on , na ti ona l p r id e , and race. The Turks are still a warlike peopl e . Their sway over the European provinces of the empire may still be preserved fora time by the assistance of the fierce and fanatical Asiatic tribes. But it is easier for them to comprehend the duty of resistance at all hazards and all risks than the nice provisions by which the diplomacy of highly-civilised and pacific communities heals a wound or allays a quarrel. It is, then, a question at this moment whether the present Turkish Government and the Sultan. himself will be able to maintain that course of moderation and forbearance which they have adopted on the recommendation of their European allies ; or whether the fact that the territory of the empire has been invaded, and that negotiations ar still going on, will not provoke an explosion of resentment among a party which undoubtedly re presents the strongest feelings of the Mussulinan faith and of the Turkish nation. It cannot be denied that considerable anxiety is entertained on this point ; and it is one of the most odious and distressing consequences of the assumed protectorate by the Emperor of Russia of the Christian popula tion of Russia that he unquestionably placed the Rayahs in the provinces and even the Christians at Constantinople in a position of considerable danger. We have no doubt that the Turkish Goverrunent will take all the means in its power to represti, or rather to prevent, any such outbreak, and the more so, because the Liberal party in the Turkish Government would be the first victims, in the event of the success of the war party. But, in appealing to the religious passions of his own subjects in re gard to the Eastern Church in the dominions of another Power, the Emperor Nicholas ought to have remembered that he inflamed to an equal de gree the passions of a nation and a creed eve si more intolerant than those of Russia; and the deplorable effects of that manifesto will be felt far beyond the boundaries of the Russian Empire. We h aye no security that the Porte will be able to Oontrol these feelings of bigotry and resentment am ong its subjects—we have no certainty that the Sult an will not be prevailed upon to make some further change in his Ministry as suddenly as that which he at tempted on the 9th of July. Either altos 'native might lead to very alarming consequences, ; Ind at the present moment the maintenance of tranq at Constantinople is at least as essential in ; the adoption of fresh terms of negotiation a t St. Petersburgh. Sargon defeats the King of Gaza, then subject to Egypt; where he receives the tribute of Pharaoh of Egypt ; where the King of Ashdod flies to Egypt, then subject to Meroe in Sennacherib's campaign in Palestine ; and in the titles of Esarhaddon. In all these cases the cor rect orthography is Musuri. If this be true, the other notices hitherto applied to Egypt must indicate some other place to the north of Assyria. Thus, in the ac count of the Wilding of Khorsabad, the words, " after the fashion of Egypt," must mean, in reality, "in the direction of Musr" (" the mountains above Nineveh" being sometimes added). Again, although " horses" are certainly indicated in the tribute of Egypt given to Sargon, and although that monarch speaks of " horses of Musr" among his especial trophies, he must refer to this northern region. The most important ques tion, however, refers to the tribute of Musr given to Deleboras, in the third panel of the Nimroud obelisk. The objects enumerated in the epigraph are " double backed camels, oxen of the river Irkiya, elephants, hei fers (?), monkeys, and baboons." Colonel Rawlinson states that he had always hitherto supposed the Irkiya to be the Erchoas of 'Upper Egypt. The Tiglath-Pileser cylinder contains, however, a detailed account of the conquest of Masr by the Assyrian king, with a list of forty countries which lie overran in Northern Syria, the names of which are for the most part obscure, perhaps because they belonged to Scythia tribes. Of these, fif teen appear to have been situated to die east of the Euphrates, in and about the Taurus ; the remainder to the west of the Euphrates and the shores of the Medi terranean. After overrunning these countries, Tiglath- Pileser 'attacks the Hittites, and takes Carshemish, which was at that time apparently on the left bank of the Euphrates ; and immediately after this follows the ex pedition against Musr. In describing afterwards the extent of his doininions, he mentions the Mediterranean as his western limit, and the Lower Zab as his eastern. On these grounds, Col. Rawlinson now thinks that IVlusr represents Persian Armenia. In conclusion, Col. Rawlinson gives it as his opinion that Nineveh was not built till about B.C. 1000, Alassar, or Kalah-Sherghat, being the original capital ; that Babylon appears for the first time on the Nimroud obelisk, and is then only men tioned as a town ; and that the name which he and Dr. Hincks have hitherto read " Kar-duniyas" is, after all, nothing else than the Biblical Shinar. Mr. Birch read an interestint, letter from Mr. Colnaghi, jun., secretary to Mr. Newton, her Majesty's vice-consul at Mytilene, in which he states that Mr. Newton has been busily occupied in collecting inscrip tions in the island of Rhodes, and that he has just started, accompanied by Mr. Finlay, of Athens, on a visit to Cos, Patmos, and Scio. It can hardly be doubted that so able an investigator as Mr. Newton will find many objects of interest to reward his re searches. _ _ Mr. Birch also communicated to the society some cu rious results of the late visit to M. Gudrin to the island of Samos. It appears that M. Garin spent six weeks there, during which time he was able to explore it very thoroughly, and to discover the mountain which Hero dotus 60) mentions was cut through by Eupalinus, of Megara. M. Garin made several excavations, and cleared away enough rubbish to enable him to pass along the ancient tunnel more than 500 paces. A portion of a paper by Mr. Greenwood, "On cer tain Epochal Periods of Papal History," was then read. MILITABY' INTELLIGENCE. YIELD-DAY AND JUVENILE• FETE IN THE FHCSNIX-PARK, DUBLIN. On Tuesday the troops of the garrison, consisting of four cavalry and four infantry regiments, assembled in review order on the Fifteen Acres, Phoenix-park, under the command of Lieut.-General Sir Edward Blakeney, K.C.B. The number of men under arms was upwards of 6,000, and, the day being extremely fine, the lines were covered with holiday folk ; and a considerable as semblage of fashionables came in carriages and on horse back to witness the exercise of the troops. The latter went through their evolutions with the greatest preci sion ; the firing was regular in the extreme, and univer sal approbation was expressed at the beautiful appear ance and high discipline of the soldiers. After perform ing many military movements of an interesting nature, each regiment broke into columns of companies, and marched off the ground in superb order, the 11th Ins- Bars taking the lead, and the bands of the several regi ments playing favourite martial airs as they left the ground. Among those who witnessed this interesting spectacle were the youthful tars attached to her Majesty's ship Blenheim, now stationed at Kingstown Harbour, who came at the kind invitation of Lieut.-Colonel Colomb to spend a right merry holiday with the little soldiers of the Royal Hibernian Military School. The appearance of these young sailors, 45 in number, when they arrived at the Fifteen Acres, excited a good deal of curiosity, and many remarks were made upon the contrast pre sented by the "blue jackets" and red coats of the sons of Neptune and Mars respectively, as well as upon the easy, careless movements of the former, iu opposition to the educated deportment of the latter. After the troops had retired, the blue and red coats formed into line and proceeded to the Hibernian School, the band of the latter discoursing pleasant music by the way for the entertainment of their visitors. The glad and happy faces of the merry party were the best tokens of their joyous feelings, and all who saw them must have been convinced that good, and good only, can result from such delightful gatherings of young people. The 74th depot will be relieved in Kilkenny by the 62d Regiment, from Athlone, one company of which will arrive here on Friday next. On Tuesday the head-quarters of the 43d depot, com manded by Captain Synge, marched from Templemore to Dublin ; also Captain Coekburne's company from Maryborough to Dublin. A company of the 2d Foot also marched on Tuesday from Templemore to Maryborough. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. The Right Hon.

Letters just received from Colonel Rawlinson announce the discovery at Koyunjik of an obelisk of white stone, 9 feet 2 inches in height, and 6 feet 3 inches square at the base ; its dimensions are, therefore, considerably larger than the obelisk discovered by Mr. Layard, at Nimroud, which is in the British Museum. This obelisk was found lying on its side in the middle of a mound, and about 15 feet below the surface ; it is unbroken, but some parts of the bas-reliefs and inscriptions with which it is covered have been defaced by damp. There are eight bas-reliefs on each side, and each of them is accompanied by inscriptions. The gentleman in charge of the exca vations at Koyunjik was about to send the obelisk to Colonel Rawlinson, and from his letter announcing the discovery we extract the following description of the bas-reliefs First Side.-1. Warriors besieging a castle. 2. King on the bank of a river, near a tower, accompanied by warriors wearing curious caps. 3. King sacrificing. 4. Four-wheeled carriage, drawn by two horses ; a man dancing in front. 5. Some carriages, followed by men bearing presents. G. Man in a chari9t, bearing a ban ner, and preceded by eunuchs. 7. King seated on a chair, accompanied by two persons on chairs ; with waiters and musicians. 8. Much defaced ; part :of a castle visible. Second side.-1. King marching in a mountainous country. 2.

King hunting deer. Third Side.-1. King besieging a fortress, which seems on fire. 2. Car drawn by two bullocks. 3. Men sittinff, two and two, on stools. 4. Man driving horses. 5. Man driving bullocks ; some sacred flowers. 6. King in pursuit of fugitives. 7. Flocks of sheep and atten dant slaves ; tents pitched. 8. King hunting the wild ass. Fourth Side.-1. King besieging a castle. 2. De faced. 3. King on his throne ; idol seated on a stool ; men driving a bullock for sacrifice. 4. Men carrying presents. 5, Five figures looking like kings ; one dis tinguished from the others. 0. Chariot drawn by two horses, preceded by king driving alone in another chariot. 7. King marching. 8. King hunting the wild bull. Colonel Rawlinson has seen only a small specimen of the inscription, but thinks it likely to belong to Assur akhpal, the builder of the north-west palace of Nim roud ; in style and language, however, it seems to re semble the inscriptions of Tiglath Pileser I. He defers pronouncing any confident opinion until ho shill have examined the obelisk itself. COMMERCIAL T.RAYELLERS' NEW SCHOOLS. The first stone of the edifice intended for schools for the orphan and necessitous children of commercial tra vellers was laid yesterday with the accustomed forms. The estate purchased for the schools is at Pinner, near the Pinner station, and the site seems well selected as regards salubrity and the beauty of the locality. At about three o'clock the procession entered the tent where the stone was placed, the band of the Coldstream Guards, uder the direction of Mr. Godfrey, playing an inspiriting air. Mr. George Moore, the secretary, came forward, and, having stated that Prince Albert was pre vented by indisposition from performing the ceremony, as it had been the wish and intention of his Royal High ness, said he had to request that Mr. Masterman, the representative of the banking and commercial interests of London, would undertake the task. The stone was then adjusted, the current coins of the realm were placed in it, Mr. Masterman put in the mortar with the silver trowel which had been presented to him, and the stone was lowered amid the cheers of the com pany. Mr. Masterman made a brief address. He said he was not well versed in masonry, but he would do his part to the best of his ability. He knew that Prince Albert would have been present if it had been in his power, for he heard his Royal Highness express his con ' sent to come. Every one knew that whenever there was an opportunity to do good for the country Prince Albert was always ready. (Cheers.) The weather that day was so auspicious that he thought a favourable augury might be drawn for the success of the institu tion,, and he trusted that a long period would elapse be r fore the coins which had that day been deposited should be disturbed. (Cheers.) Dr. Vaughan, the head-mas ter of Harrow School, then offered up a prayer ; a hymn, written for the occasion, was sung by the chil dren, which was followed by "God Save the Queen." Hearty cheers were given for her Majesty and Prince Albert, and for the prosperity of the institution. The company were then invited to partake of a cold colla tion. It was supplied by Mr. Holt (Radley's Hotel, Illackfilars), and was most abundant and excellent in every respect. After the toasts of " The Queen," "Prince Albert," and " The Royal Family" had been proposed and acknowledged with cheers and cordiality, Dr. Vaughan, in a very tasteful and feeling speech, proposed the "Health of the Chairman" (Mr. Master man). The chairman acknowledged the compliment in appropriate terms. The chairman, in pro posing " Prosperity to the Commercial Travellers' Schools," appealed in forcible terms for assist ance to the institution, touched upon the ad vantages to be derived from the spread of education, and spoke of the commercial travellers as a mo st intelli gent and respectable class. The body consisted, he said, of 30,000, and he could not say how ninny children. (A laugh.) Mr. Cuffley acknowledge d t he toast... This gentleman and his family, it appears , are warm friends to the institution. The chairman next proposed "The health of Mr. G. Moore, the treasurer. Mr. Moore acknowledged the compliment in appropriate terms. He expressed a hope that the new schools would be opened in 12 months, when the lease of the school at Wanstead would expire. He expressed the gratification he felt at the educational progress of the children, and particularly as regarde d their advance in Script ura l knowledge. He then g ave a satisfactory account of the subscription of the day. .After some other toasts in con nection with the institution, the company l e ft t h e tent, every one present being much gratified with the proceed ings.

ROYAL SOCIETY OF LITERATURE. At the last meeting of this society, Sir John Do , ratt, V.P., in the chair, Mr. Va u oh x i nins c w o c m yha lu m iienh u dA n en i rn c r a ct. oi t e e dan containitnacckp ysalpe stated atn a r dt eme from rd r u o ctihnh a t mt he t hohreee ß h e v la 13air:ddi t Dr. i eia as- l‘H ce li r un t s a cek i u n sm e it ' historical notice than any other document which had as yet been published ; and that another cylinder had lately been noticed by Colonel Rawlinson, which, i x.i.Dr. Hincks' opinion, was nearly the same as the one i II the Museum, but not so interesting, as much of the ch rono logical matter appeared to be wanting on it, or, at all events, had not been noticed by Colonel Rawlinson. Both decypherers agree in referring the two cylind era to the same monarch—Tiglath Pileser. The date t d the Museum cylinder can be approximated very mi;arly. The king who wrote it is the same who is mention *d on the Bavian inscription of Sennacherib as having been conquered by the Babylonians 418 years before th a first year of Sennacherib. At this period Nineveh was destroyed, and Kalah-Sherghat became the sel tt of Government, and certain images and gods were ca cried to Babylon, which Sennacherib subsequsntly brought back with him from that city. Now, as Sennachti rib's conquest of Babylon was in B.C. 702, the pre vious fall of Nineveh must have been in B.C. 1120,, and the date of the cylinder may have been a few -si ears later, about B.C. 1110. In the inscription, Tii ;lath- Pileser speaks of four of his ancestors, all of whom be: tr the titles of the Kings of Assyria, and notices especiall: y one of them, " Shemsiyao ' " the son of " Ishmi-Dak a a ," a name which Dr. Hincks considers to be certain. He states also, in the same inscription on the cylinder, that he rebuilt a certain temple at Kalah-Shergat, whicli his great-grandfather had taken down, and which had been originally built by Shemsiyao, 641 years before. IChese years must have terminated with either the taking I ilown of the temple or its re-edification. In the former case, Shemsiyao must have lived B.C. 1750 ; in the 1( utter, B.C. 1840. Tiglath-Pileser adds that he made ti tblets and inscribed sculptures containing a record of hist con quests, and that he put them up in the temple ;: and that he at the same time found tablets and inscribed sculptures of his ancestor " Shemsiyao"—which wore of course in a character then legible, and similar to that which he used himself—and that he put these s up i m the temple, by the side of his own. Dr. Hincks suggests that they are probably there now, and may yet be found, whenever the great mound at Kalah-Sh argat shall be thoroughly explored. The accuracy of the date, 641 years, like that of 418 years on the Baviaii, in scription, is worthy of remark, as it is clearly not in • tended as a mere approximation, as in that case round 41.0thswould have been used.

At length a favourable change in the weather has permitted the troops to depart from that state of inglo rious rest in which for several days they had most un willingly indulged, and to satisfy their military ardour in the search for laurels on • the bloodless heather of the plains of Chobham. The four days of repose, damp and uncomfortable though they have doubtless been, which the present forces have enjoyed since their arrival, do not appear to have been lost on them, if we may judge from the manner in which they went through their evo lutions yesterday and the previous day. So far from their energies having been damped, by the continuous rain, the showers of Chobham appear only to have invi gorated their spirits, and made them, like " giants re freshed," ready for the performance of any duty. We do not pretend to that amount of technical knowledge in military details which would enable us to form an accurate critical judgment as to the relative merits of the present or the former troops, nor would it be fair to compare the performances yesterday or on the pre vious day with the more finished evolutions of the pre vious division. The predecessors of the present forces presented an admirable example of discipline and effi ciency, and in the opinion of persons competent to form an opinion on the subject, the troops now on the ground are not one whit behind them in any respect. Certainly, the manner in which the troops went throng h their movements yesterday was satisfactory in the ex treme, and won the applause and admiration of the spectators as well professional as non-professional. Apart from the detailed movements yesterday, the whole plan of the operations was conceived and carried out with the ability of a master mind, and with an amount of strategic knowledge equal, if not superior, to anything which Lord Seaton had yet devised. The enemy were to be driven from a strong position, partially repulsed, and, forming under cover of a thickly-wooded planta tion, they were to beat back the whole of the attacking forces. The 'means by which this feat was accomplished, we now propose to state. The enemy consisted of a company of the 23d Fusiliers, forming the left wing ; a company of the Scots Fusiliers, in white fatigue dress, i n the centre, and a deta c h men t o f the Sappers and Miners on the right. They were formed in a strong position, on the verge of the common, near the site of the old encampment. The earlier part of the movements was confined to attacks of the cavalry, several most beautiful movements being gone through. The brigade of Guards having commenced the attack, had fallen back, when the cavalry formed in two lines—the Blues and Scots Greys in the first, and the Hussars and Light Dragoons in the second line—moved forward. The whole body of cavalry pressed forward in most beautiful order en echelon of regiments, and, re tiring, formed line in rear of the infantry. Colonel Lockyer's brigade, consisting of the 79th, 88th, and 97th, checked the progress of the advancing enemy, , while the cavalry were forming in their rear, and, falling back, were covered in their retreat by another splendid movement of cavalry, which advanced en double echelon of squadrons from the centre. In this movement the Scots Greys were remarkable for the precision with which they moved forward, while their scarlet uniforms and grey horses gave them, not only a military, but an exceedingly picturesque appearance. The martial and soldierlike appearance of the Blues was also much ap plauded. After this advance, the cavalry retired to the rear of the infantry, and continued changing their front, and marching and counter-marching, in conformity with their movements. At length each brigade, having formed line, and poured some tremendous volleys into the enemy, retired and took ground to the left, for the purpose of attacking the enemy's right, and of turning their flank, under cover of the plantati on which skirts the edge of the common. The 35th Regi ment attempted to penetrate the wood, but the enemy, extending their right, first obtained possession of the stronghold, and were enabled to keep the 35th at bay, who contented themselves with skirting the outside in single file, firing as they advanced. The brigade of Guards on the left had in the meantime passed along the Chobham road, intending to surprise the enemy at the rear of the wood, while in the centre a demonstration was made by the Artillery and Bth Hussars, and posses sion taken of a small cottage for the purpose of securinc , the retreat. The Hussars had just emerged from the boundaries of the wood when they surprised the enemy in the rear, and, attacking them, created a temporary panic among them. Speedily rallying, however, the uncon querable Fusiliers advanced on the Hussars, who, hav ing picketed their horses, were advancing on foot to meet them, and compelled them to remount after an in effectual fire, and protected by the Horse Artillery, to seek the shelter of the small cottage and garden. While the enemy were thus successful on their left, the right and centre emerged from the wood and drove the 35th before them in most admired disorder, although protected in their retreat by some of the guns of the Horse Artil lery, which were dragged up to the summit of one of the heights, and brought to bear on the advancing enemy. On the extreme left of the attacking party, the brigade of Guards had missed the main body of the enemy, and, after firing a few shots among the stragglers, fell back. The whole army was now in full retreat, pursued by the avenging enemy, and covered by the cavalry. Once or twice the cavalry showed a disposition to charge on the advancing foe, but, for prudential reasons, no doubt, declined the task. Col. Lockyer's brigade formed on one of the ranges of hills, and after vainly attempting to resist their fate, continued their retreat. The last move ments of the cavalry consisted in retiring by columns of squadrons from the left, covered by the skirmishers of each regiment, and supported by two squadrons of the Blues. At length they passed over the hill as though doggedly not to yield the palm of victory, and the artil lery thundering forth a final salute from the flanks of the 2d light brigade permitted the infantry regiments to form in column and retire from the field. The enemy col lected their three miniature divisions, and, satisfied with the honours they had achieved, marched quietly back to their respective camps, where they arrived about three o'clock, having been on the ground for upwards of four hours. The operations of the previous day were confined to the same spot of ground as those of yesterday, and were remarkable for several very splendid charges made by the cavalry. During one portion of the day the enemy were posted in considerable strength on the sum mit of a steep eminence, from which all previous attempts to dislodge them had been fruitless. The Horse Guards and the Scots Greys, however, advancing furiously up the hill, reached the top, and nearly rode down the enemy, sabreing and dispersing them in every direction, to the great amusement of the spectators, and the no small alarm of the enemy, who, by the rapidity of their move ments, evidently thought their adversaries were carrying matters beyond a joke. The really effective manner in which the whole of the cavalry manoeuvred on this their first trial, and upon ground still wet from the effects of the recent heavy rains, and unknown to the men, was matter of considerable surprise to the field officers. During the first few days, the horses, as might be expected, were somewhat restive in their al fresco stalls ; they are now, however, perfectly reconciled to their new state of things, and we are not aware of any accident which has occurred to the animals from "staking," or from those other causes which interfered to some extent with the comforts of the former troopers. Yesterday a corporal in the Bth Hussars, while mounted on the field, received a severe kick from one of the horses in the front rank, which broke his leg, and com pelled him to be carried off the field on a litter. This is the only accident which has yet happened to the troops at present on the ground. The Sappers and Miners are, we believe, to be relieved to-morrow. They have now been in camp for upwards of eight weeks, and the hard and laborious duties which they have performed, in all weathers, fairly entitle them to the same relief as has been accorded to the other por- THE POLICE MOVEMENT. THE METROPOLITAN POLICE.--The defection, or ra ther dissatisfaction of the force, as expressed by the pri vates in the H and K divisions, at the system of promo tion and the rate of pay they receive, is rapidly extending throughout the numerous divisions of the metropolis ; the complaints of the men are deep, although not loud, and rumours :continue to gain credence that some hun dreds of the force will resign if their grievances are Lot listened to, and an alteration of the system adopted by the commissioners, with an increase of pay. As it would be impossible to hold a general meeting of the whole body, deputations from each division are spoken of to unite and adopt measures to urge a consideration and redress of their complaints ; but all urge that it should be done in a temperate and respectful manner. THE CITY POLICE.—APPREHENDED STRlKE.—Yester day sectional meetings were held in several of the divi sions of the City police, confined to the members of the force comprising the second, third, and fourth-class men, for the purpose of adopting measures to convene a general meeting of the whole force, to consider the best means and course to be pursued by them in bringing the griev ances under which they labour prominently before the public • and to memorialise Mr. Daniel Whittle Har vey, the chief commissioner, for an amelioration of their present condition. The meetings, however, •appear to have been conducted privately, the general body keep ing aloof until such time as their proceedings, by una nimity, among themselves, are ripe for a general meeting. There would, however, appear to be some differences among them upon their several grievances ; but on one question—the system of promotion—the dis Sati sfaction appears to be general throughout the several divisions, six in number ; the ground of complaint— that where civilians have been in the force for upwards of 10 or 12 years, and gone through all the duties im posed upon them with satisfaction to their superior offi cers, the duties having of late years been of no ordinary character on many occasions, particularly the Chartist riots and other public occasions, they find men who have been only a few months in th e force are promoted over their heads as serjeants, simply because they have been in the army. - The men, also, of the second, third, and fourth class, consider they have a right to complain of being deprived of their usual week's re laxation, while the inspectors have each enjoyed their ten days' absence, the sergeants and first-class men having received a week's leave of absence, the re mainder of the force being denied similar relaxation. Their being compelled to reside within the city is a mare minor consideration, and applicable to a few, but they all express themselves unanimous upon the inade quacy of their pay and the length of time they have to servo before they arrive at even 20s. a week, the pay' of the . second class, the greater portion of whom, by that time, are married men, having to support a wife and several children, some of them as many as five, be sides payment for their lodgings, no trifling deduction from their pay. The fourth-class men enter at 175., serve six months, and if not reported they are raised to the third class at 18s., serve another six months with the same result, and then are advanced to 19s. ; and in 12 months after, go into the second class at 11., and wait their chance of another 12 months to get into the first class at 225., when they begin to look for promotion as serjeants at 255., but in vain ; they find men who have only recently been in the force made ser jeants without any apparent cause. The men say they cannot continue to live upon such a system, and unless an alteration takes place, and their pay and chances of promotion are increased, they will have no other alter native but to retire from the force. The movement is by no means confined to this class of men. The men in the first class equally complain of the system of pro motion and pay, and commiserate the position of the other classes. The serjeants in several of the divisions have memorialised the commissioner for an increase of pay, but as yet have received no answer. The men are anxiously looking for a general meeting, and are watch ing the proceedings of the metropolitan force. OCEAN PENNY POSTAGE OFFERED BY PRIVATE ENTERPRISE.
