Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Awati-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using It about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than I ever was before the baldness appeared. _ _ . " Mrs. NVeekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an Hs. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume it is tar beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact - - —3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and •irevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The rmst delicate ladies may use this delightful product et the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops the crown of the heal ; if v< ry bad, repeat it every quarter of an onr. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces air on ebildren's heads in a few appplications. If used on taunts' each, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair..—See pamphlet of testimonials.

THE GOVERNMENT SCHEME OF EDUCA I lON. The discussion wa4 reviewed yesterday, at the sitting bf the Court of Common Council, and an arnendmi.nt y Mr, Lowe having been lost, that the Council, whilst it approved of the scheme, gonsidert d that class's sh , uld be formed in the schoi.li in which no particular kind of religious belief should be promulgated, in order that the childr( n of different sects might simply receive secular education, the religious portion being intruded to the parents; the motion of Mr. 13ennoeh was almost unanimously adopted, only three or four hands having been head up against it. Mr. BENNOCII said, it now became necessary to adopt another motion to give the resolution effect. The Cor pnration of Lonlon e njoyed taany distinguishing privi leges, and strong the chief, one being that of addressing the Queen upon the Throne in all cases of emergenc) affecting the interest of the nation. Soma twelvemonth ago, they had presented an address pra)ing for the re peal of the Corn laws, which had, in his opinion, much accelerated the settlement of that vexs- ti,us question; and, in his humide opinion, it would be a crowning ,ict of loyalty. .suctpatriotism, to present an address, now praying for the emancipation of the na tion's intellect from the th.aidom of ignorance ; pro claiming to the world that fountains of knowl, dge, free as wt I,s of water, were opened for the benefit of the people, whence they might come and drink abundantly, without money and without price ; and above all, with out distinction of religi , .us creed, or political opinion. Here some disCli•sion arose as to how effect should be given to the resolution, and it was ultimately agreed to advertise the resolution, signed by the Town Clerk, and to have it presented to the Members for the City, and the Marquis of Lansdowne. Mr. BENNOCII said the notice of his motion was given two months before the Ministcrial scheme was made public, and since this had b.en done, he preferred a pe tition to Parliament, in lieu of an address, of which he gave notice, and which will be brought forward in due course. The decision excited much satisfaction, a mejority of t least ten to one being in tavour of the Government scheme. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, Aram Vi.—This morning Captain Parke. Lieutenants Digby and Henry, and a corn; any of Royal Marine Artillery, received of nets to proceed to Woolwich. Last evening a hi dy of the dockyard artisans, numbering amongst them some distinguished proficieuts in music, gave a concert in aid of the fund raised in this district for the relief of the distress in Ireland and Scotland, under the patronage of Rear-Admiral Superintendent Hyde Parker, C.B. whose Ldy and household attended. The Commander - in -Chief, Ad miral Sir C. Ogle, and his family circle, also attended, as did the chief officers of the dockyard, their wives, and friends, making a most respectable and brilliant auditory. The vocal and instrumental music, the latter especially, would not have distrraced Hanover-sq, , uare • ? Rooms., A large wn Las aanorl.anmenc was boneanly worth a guinea. The arrangement - 3 and tout ensemble reflected the highest credit upon the promoters of the innocent but in tellectual entertainment. A court-martial, or a series of them, is about to take place upon sundry officers and men of the steam-:loop Salamander, recently home from the Pacific, whose crew and offi,:ers are to be quartered in the Victory ' pro tern., Captain Pas co having received orders t o that effect. The Recruit, 12, Commander Slade, will be brought into harbour to-morrow morning to have her iron cleaned. The execution of the corporal part of the punishment awarded by the court-martial to the deserter Smyth, of this ship, has been delayed, and awaits the decision of the Admiralty. It it is to be executed, which appears doubtful, it will be in flicted prior to coming into harbour. The Berkshire, of London, was towed to Spithead from Cherbourg last evening by the steam- tug Sir William Wal lace, of London. She has lost fore and mizen masts, main ti.pmast, and bowsprit in a tremendous gale, which she en countered about three weeks ago SOO miles to the wwward of the Lizard. She ia from Sydney, with a full cargo, and had on board nearly 150 French passengers, who were safely landed at Cherbourg. She is jury rigged. The tug came into harbour at seven o'clock last evening to repair some ilamage she has sustained before she could proceed to London with her charge. The Thetis, 36, Captain Codrington, C. 8., was taken out of the dock and into the harb .ur this morning. The Trident steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Riggs. has completed fuel, and is under orders to proceed to Wool-- with, for which place she will sail this evening, weather (which is at present very unpropitious) permitting. THE WEATHER.—The weather in the metropolis has for several days past been exceeatingly cold fir the season, icca,:ioned by the continued prevalence of a north.eas!erll wind, which has materially obstructed the progress of vege tation in the suburbs, and has also proved very destructive to tin) early fruit blossoms, which lihd expanded Iron the •irects of a previous genial temperature. Yesterday morn: Mg several showers of snow and hail descended. The hail. stones in the neighbourhood of Highg,ite and llornsey were of an unusually large size, many of t nem measuring nearly au inch in circumference. Tue sun subsec.n.mtly shone forth with great brilliancy, but the day closed very cloudy and gloomily.

After a fair average passage of about thirteen days and a-half the steam-ship Hibernia, Captain Harrison, Lrrived here this morning from Boston and Halifax. She had 107 passengers, and the monthly mails from Canada and the United States. By this arrival we have received papers from all parts of the union, and the news which they contain are of a very important anal interesting character. The journals before us are full of the deeds of san voinary warfare in the invaded territory of the Mexicans. Santa Anna who has come to close quarters with his rival, "old rough and ready," and although the latter claims a victory, he has really very little cause to boast. Two-fifths of his forces are said to have been slaughtered, 30,000 of their rations cap 'ured, and no less than seven or eight pieces Lif artil lery spiked, lest the Mexican arm.); should obtain them. This is not very pleasant news for the occu pants o the " White House" at Washington. Both parties claim the victory, but we cannot say that either have conquere-d. The Mexicans appear to have failed in carrying the American position, but .made sad havoc of their eanks. The Mexicans estimate the American loss at 2,000 killed and wounded, three cannon, and two colours; whilst the Americans estimate that of the Mexicans at 4,000. Both generals had summoned each other to surrender—after the battle! The following details of the conflict are from a New Orleans paper, which reached New York at noon on the 31st, just before the departure of the steamer which passes over the Sound for Boston with the 'nails and passengers for the Hibernia:— THE MEXICAN ARMY, LED BY SANTA ANNA. DEFEATED AT IMES° VISTA WITH GREAT SLAUGHTER. I . Ve lay before our re a d ers , i n a d vance of our regular publi cation, the glorious tidings from the army, brought by the schooner John Belt. Our reporter left the vessel in the river, and came up to town by express with the news. The following account was prepared for us by an officer of the army. It may be relied upon. We publish also - Ganeral Santa Anna's account of the battle, from which it will be seen that !ie has suffered a defeat, though he covers up his retreat with a flourish of words. It will be seen that victory has been won at a sacrifice of many brave men. To-morrow we will give further particulars, prepared from the editions of the Picayune, by Lieutenant J. J. C. Bibb, of the United States army. Dr. Turner, of the United States army, who arrived at Matatnoras on the 9th instant, from Monterey, br oug h t the glorious intelligence of another brilliant victory over the Mexican army. The scene of action was a t Bueno Vista, about six miles west of Saltillo. The fighting commenced on the 22d of February, and ended on the 13d. Santa Anna retired to Ague Nueva, a distance of ten miles, leaving 4,000 killed and wounded up.,n the field. The loss on our part was 700 killed and wounded. Santa Anna's forces amounted to at least 15,000 men. That of General Taylor's to about 5,00 almost entirely volunteers. His army is composed of Washington's and Brag's Artil lery and Thomas's Batteries, one squadron of the Int and 2d Dragoons, the Arkansas and Kentucky Cavalry, a brigade of Illinois and one also of Indiana Volunteers, the Ist Mis sissippi and 2d Kentucky regiments and company of Texas Volunteers. Dr. Turner brought a list of sixty-three officers killed and wounded. 1 left in such haste that I was unable to obtain a copy, but recollect among the killed Captain Assistant-Adjutant-General United States army; Colonel Yell, of the Arksnsaa Cavalry; Captain Moon; Adjutant Vough, and three others not named ofthe Kentucky Cavalry ; Captain M'Kee, Lieutehant-Colonel Clay, son of Henry Clay; Captain Willis, 2(1 Kentucky Infantry ; Colonel flaidin and Major Gorman, of the Illinois Brigade; together with many of the Indiana Brigade, several of the Mississippi Regiment, and the Lieutenants of the Texas Volunteers. Among the wounded I remember General Lane, Colonel Jefferson Davis, Ist Mississippi Regiment; Captain S:ein, let United St a t es D ragoons; C apta i n Conner, of the Texas Volunteers; Lieutenants S. G. French and O'Brian, United States Artiliery ; Lieutenant Barbour, 2d Kentucky In iautry ; Lieutenant Corbin, Ist, Mississippi Regiment; and Li , -utetiaid 1V hite4de, of the Indiana Brigade. The official dispatches of General Taylor have been cut off. Colonel Morgan's regiment of Ohio Volunteers, being re forced &,y a command from Monterey, had reached that [ace in safety. Colonel Curtis, of Ohio, with one company, Captain Hunter, of the 2d C sited States Dragoons, his own egi ment, one or Inuiana Volunteers, the V.rginian Regiment, ind I think some Texas Rangers, in all about 2,000 men, were about to leave Camargo, to attack General Urrea, who is saiu to be about thirty miles south of th:st place, with an army of 4,000 to .5,000 men, principally rancotros. lie is believed to have with him only 1,500 regular troops. A great msuy, it not ail, of these ranchero, as soon as they hear of the destruction of Sawa A7 , ua's army, will dis parse, and the Gallant Colonel will, no doubt, obtain the victory. Do; news from above proves that the various reports which had hence been received of Genre, Taylor's retreat upon Monterey, and the advarce of a lar4e force to attack ur depots at the Brazos and at the mouth of the Rio Grande. to be untrue. Of the defences at the mouth of the river, I know nothing, but have been told that they are sufficient to make a strong resistance. The fortilicatiol,s at . l he Brazos, with the force of artillery and persons in the quartermaster's employ, which can be raised as a garrison, are sufficient to drive back a command of at least 2,500 or 3,00 r Mexicans. The work, which may be technically termed a continued line, enclp:seit all the guar terma•ter's and coinmissaries' stores in the depot. Toe pa rapet is formed of barrels of damaged commissary stoles, with sand bags at the superior slow. The sand front a ditch has been thrown up against the barriers, and forms the exterior al Ppe. Tue armament con sists of tour pieces of artillery, two twelve aim two six pounders, iii barbette, which sweep the foot of and cross three fires upon the level plain over which the enemy would be compelled to advance, and about three hundred muskets to line the parapet. This was thrown up when an attack was daily expected. Nothing having reached us from General Myler for several days, we believe he has surrendered, as was reported. We give some credit to the rumour of an advance of a large body of the enemy upon our depot. After waiting three or four days anxiously expecting the approach of the enemy. we received the glorious news above, understood, of course, that the battle of Brazos Santiago was no go: and when I sailed the artillery of Fort Harney, in stead of mowing down the Mexicans, was pealing forth a salute in honour of Old Rough and Ready a,;(1 hts gallant army at Bueno Vista. SANTA ANNA'S ACCOUNT. We annex Santa Anna's own account of the action s of the [Bueno Vista, as translated for the Tampico Sentinel. We have the original Spanish account in our possession : Camp near Bueno Vista, Feb. 23. Excellent Sir,—After two days' battle, in which the enemy with a force of 8,000 to 9,000 men, and 25 pieces of 'artilley, lost five of his positions, three pieces of artillery, and two flags, I have determined to go back to Agua Nueva, to provide myself with provisions, not having a single biscuit or a grain of rice left. Thanks to the position occupied by the enemy—he left on the field about 2,000 dead. Both armies have been cut to pieces, but the trophies of war will ' give you an idea on which side has been the advantage. We have struggled with hunger and thirst during forty hours; and if we can provide ourselves withhe er soldiers emns underwe will go again and charge the enemy. T my command:have done their duty, and covered the honour of the Mexican nation with glory. The enemy has seen that neither the advantage of his position, nor the broken mature of the Kround, nor the rigour of the season (for it hem beenrattling during toe action) count preven t tub ternute charge with the bayonet, which left him terrified. ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS. On the 22d Santa Anna began the battle, by various manceuvres, attempting to outflank and terrify Old Rough and Ready. On that day the battle was confined to skirm ishing and cannonading, without much effect on either. In the meantime Santa Anna .had sent a large force to Taylor's rear, but our artillery opened upon them with great effect, and they were soon compelled to withdraw. On the 211 the battle commenced in real earnest, and raged with great violence during the whole day. The Americans did not want to be attacked, but with the most daring impunity charged on the enemy with loud huzzas, their officers leading them most gallantly. General Taylor was everywhere in the thickest of the fight. He received a ball through his over -coat, but was not injured. Adjutant Bliss was slightly wounded at his side. Adju tant Lincoln, also, of the General': staff, the intrepid young officer who so distinguished himself at Resaca de la Palma, was killed. Tile uattle of the 23d lasted from early in the mornicg ai ti . l_l about four r4st., when Santa Anna drew off e h t is . army, d retired to Agua Nueva. to await a reinforcem . commanded by General Vek-ques, .

Clay and his :,arty by taking Mex:can prisoners enough to exchange fur i pent has been Cully redeemed. General Wool greatly distinguished himself in the action, and all the officers fought like heroes. After the battle ; ieneral Taylor demanded of Santa Anna an unconditional surrender of his whole army, which the latter declined; but it return requested General Taylor to surrender immediately. Immortal be the reply of Old Rough and Ready, as delivered :)y the gallant Lieutenant Crittendea " General Taylor never surrendeis l."

A train of one hundred loaded waggons of the D'nited Stags, on their way from Moaterey to Carmago, under an escort of thirty vo l unteers, was captured I y a body of Y_exican cavalry a few miles beyond Marino. Three of the men made good their escape; the rest were taken prisoners. A young lady, the daughter of an American cilizen,.living in Mexico and returning home from New Orleans, where she had been going to school, was taken with this train, her father having been killed by the Mexicans. She had escaped been inundated crasumtioweuitreahf and arrived at Monterey in safety, where her misfortunes had excited the most lively sympathy. The lady's name is Miss Burns. Colonel Curtis, of the Ohio volunteers, had started on. his expedition against Urrea, who was at Aldemas, a village on _ the San Juan river, above forty miles from Camargo. Toe Colonel his a fine force of volunteers, composed of the Ohio and Indiana regiments, and two cir 'three cotnpanies of. Virginia volunteers, and Captain Winter's company of - United States dragoons. The Mexicans have possession of Saralvo, China, Mier, and all the towns beyond Camargo and Monterey. Major Collar, paymaster, will carry on General Taylea dispatchea to Monterey. Previously to the departure of the Hibernia it was rot_ moored that Vera Cruz had surrendered to the Americans.

From the reliable ac counts brought by her it would appear that Santa Anna had ordered the troops to be withdrawn from the city, leaving the Castle to defend itself. According to an order issued by Santa Anna, it appears that his troops are to make a stand at the Puerte Nacional—the National Bridge—about 23 miles from Vera Cruz. This is a strong military position, Of wnich Madame Calderon (the lady of the Spanish Minister in Washington, to whose beautiful and ad mirable 'Life in Mexico; being a Residence of Two Years in that Country,' - from 1839 to 1841, we are indebted for so much amusement and it.rmation) gives the following description:— "' We arrived (on travelling from Vera Cruz to the capital) at Puerte Nacional, formerly Puerte del Rey„ celebrated as the scene of many. an engagement during the revolution. and by occupying which Victoria frequently prevented the passage of the Spanish troops and that of the convoys of silver to the port.
