A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy the defects of' nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls, a gentlemanreshlin‘agrnf:6rauun, bugorfolk, who, in the year 1842, on returning from Earlestone Itarketto vreybreti, - where Be then re sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill ness of several months' duration, during whieh period his hair con tinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly bald as if his head had been shaved ;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel, then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for his lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was induced to try the effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was used the growth recommenced, and he has now to boast of a very thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity, that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl, the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger. *.* Beware of " Spurious Imitations !—The genuine article has the words " ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL " on the wrapper.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS Copy of a Letter from Mr. Blake, Kingseliffe, Northampton- shire : "Kingscllffe, January 21, 1847. " Sir,—Twelve years ago I became afflicted with Rheumatic Gout. I procured the beat advice possible, but without deriving benefit ; and the doctors recommended me to go to the Stamford Infirmary, where I continued twelve weeks, and left it without obtaining any benefit, and all hope of relief had vanished. " This hopeless state of things continued until a friend advised me to try Blair's Pills. I then lost no time in sending to Mr. Mortlock, of Stamford, for a box, and by the time I had taken that quantity I got rid of one crutch. I then sent for another box, which enabled me to throw away the other, and, thank God, I have never since had such an attack.

SODA WATERS. AAND R. THIVAITE§AND COMPANY, . INVENTORS AND SOLE PREPARERS OF THE ORIGINAL SINGLE AND DOUBLE SODA WATERS, 57, UPPER SACKVILLE-STREET, DUBLIN ; ST. ALBAN'S-PLACE, ST. JAMES'S, LONDON. These waters were introduced to the notice of the public, as their invention, by the testimony of the Professor of Chemistry (the late Robert Percival, M.D.), in his lectures in Trinity College, Dublin, and from that period have continued to obtain the recommendation of the Gentlemen of the Medical Faculty, and the approbation of the public. The SINGLE and DOUBLE SODA WATERS derive their names not from the quantity of fixed air which they contain, but from the proportions of Sal Soda, which, when prepared in the PECULIAR MANNER employed by . A. and R. THWAITES and Co., renders them highly useful to the powers of digestion, improving the appetite, warming the stomach, and stimulating the hepatic functions. The above kinds of SODA WATER are exclusively prepared by them, and are not manufactured by any ether house in the KING DOM. 57, Upper Sackville-street, Dublin ; St. Alban's•place, St. James's, London.

THE SLAVONIC NATIONS. Count V. Krasinski delivered on Satt7rciay last, at Willis's Rooms, his second lecture on the political and intellectual development of the Slavonic nations. He described the settlement of the Slavonic population within the borders of the Eastern empire. These popu lations extended during the sixth century over all Greece, including the Peloponesus. A German writer of our days, M. Fullmerayer, who has deeply studied the Byzantine history, and has carefully examined the different localities of Greece, maintains that the ancient Hellenic population had entirely disappeared, and was replaced by a Slavonic one. He has proved by the evi dence of Byzantine writers, that the whole of the Pelo ponesus was occupied by the Slavonians in 589, and that the ancient Greek population had fled either to the islands of the Archipelago, or to some inaccessible places on the continent of Greece. Among the most convincing proofs which M. Fullmerayer gives in sup port of his assertion, are the Slavonic names which dif ferent localities bear to the present day, although the inhabitants of those places speak now the Romaic or modern Greek. It is a remarkable fact, that the names of various localities, as towns, villages, rivers, and mountains in the countries south of the Danube, which :re or have been inhabited by the Slavonians, have names similar to those of many localities situated in the original Slavonic countries, i. e. Russia and Poland ; so that the provinces whence the Slavonians of Turkey had emigrated may be easily traced. M. Fullmerayer him aelt found, in the Morea, two places called Cracow and Varsova. The present name of the Peloponesus (Morea) is of Slavonic origin, derived from the word More, sea, a derivation much more probable than from the Greek name of the mulberry tree, as it had been generally supposed. The Slavonic nations of Serbs or Servians and of Avates arrived about the middle of the seventh century from the Carpathian mountains, i. e. the present Austrian Poland, being invited by the Emperor Hera clius, and settled in the lands which they now occupy. The Slavonians of Mores were conquered by the Greek emperors in the ninth century ; they were converted to the Christian religion, and so completely Grecised that they forgot their own national language and adopted that of their masters, as the Slavonians of Pomerania, Mecklenburg, and the island of Rugen, who lost their own language and adopted the German. The other Slavonic nations settled to the south of the Danube, founded the independent states of Bulgaria, Servia, Croatia, and Bosnia. The most interesting history is that of Servia. It attained a momentary grandeur under its tzar, Stephen Dashan, 1330-1350, ;vii . o having con quered Macedonia and Albania, would have probably occupied Constantinople, if he bad not died on his march towards that city at the bead of 80,000 men. Dashan gave to his country, in 1849, a code of laws, which con tains many curious provisions, and which are supposed to have been derived from the primitive Slavonic institu tions; as, for instance, trial by jury, the -existence of civil marriage contracted before a magistrate, and not a clergyman, &c. Some regulations of the same code are very liberal; thus, for instance, a slave or captive who escaped to the palace of the monarch was free ; any foreign individual who fled into Servia from slavery, or any other kind of oppression, was not to be given up, should even the country suffer for it. Servia lost its in. dependence at the battle of Kossovapol, in 1389, against the Turks, but was reduced into a Turkish province only in 1459. The Count gave also a sketch of the history of Bulgaria, Bosnia, and Croatia. He also gave an account of Montenegro, the literature of Servia, Ragusa, &c. His next lecture will be delivered on Thursday. An expectation appears to be entertained that the East India Company are upon the point of taking another step likely to delay indefinitely the effective introduction of the railway system into their territory, it being proposed to send Mr. Simms, their railway engineer, to Bombay and Ma dras, to examine and report on the lines projected in these Presidencies, before any further encouragement shall be given to the respective companies, As regards Bombay, this course will involve a delay of between one and two years, and for that period the advantages which would be derived from facilitating an increased supply of cotton, the main incen tive to which must consist in improved means of transit, will consequently be lost. If further examination were necessary on account of any doubt as to the eli gibility of the line proposed in that Presidency, or if the outlay were such that it could only be drawn ' from this country during the monetary pres sure likely to prevail with more or less force during the entire period of the threatened delay, the proceeding adopted by the India House might seem advisable ; but as regards the first forty miles of the line, the construction of which alone is at present urged, it is believed that no doubt has hitherto been expressed in any quarter either as to its eligibility or its direction, and with respect to expenditure it appears that this would be so small asto prove comparatively of no importance, and to be within the limits even of what might be raised within the Presidency. The delay, more over, now likely to arise would scarcely be limited to two years, for under the proposed course the present company (the Great Indian Peninsular) would most likely follow the recent example of the Madras Company, and break up for want of a distinct prospect of Government support, after which there would be little chance of an early resumption of the design. FATAL ACCIDENT ON TUE EASTERN COUNTIES RAlLWAY.—Yesterday, at the Hertford station of the above railway, an engine -driver, named Edward Williamson, while engaged in shunting some carriages upon the rail, endea voured to pass between two of the carriages. Unfortunately in the attempt he was struck by one of the buffers in the abdomen, and forced against the preceding carriage. The poor fellow was taken up insensible, and every assistance rendered him, but he expired after lingering three hours in great agony. THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH ON THE LEEDS RAILWAY.—The directors of this company are now engaged in establishing a line of telegraphic communication between this town and Leeds. Already the communication between Manchester and Rochdale is complete, and the powers of the telegraph were tested for the first time on Wednesday last. The first official question asked on this novel machine was on the morning of that day, about eleven o'clock, and was addressed to the station-master at Rochdale as follows: " What time did the second school excursion train pass?" Answer—" Seven minutes before ten." The importance of the electric telegraph needs not to be dwelt upon ; but we cannot help congratulating the company upon their being the first introducers of it into Manchester.—Manchester Ad vertiser' The mortality of London, and indeed, of England generally, shows a gradual annual decrease, whilst it is well known the population increases considerably. The rates of premium for life insurance have been greatly reduced during the last few years, yet the offices continue as prosperous as formerly. These lacts clearly demonstrate that some cause, either unknown or unheeded, must have produced such favourable results. Air ongst these causes, the increased knowledge of anatomy, and the many very valuable disco veries in medicine, will stand most prominent. The small pox, that annually carried off thousands, has been success fully combatted by vaccination; and Gout, that used Co claim its numerous victims, has been thoroughly vanquished by Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills.

CONDITIONS. The promoters of such Bills are to give notice in the Private Bill-office, on or before the 18th day of June ; or if the Bill shall be in Committee, then within six days of the report of the Committee, of their intention to suspend any further proceedings thereon, on the completion of some subsequent stage of the Bill. The promoters of such Bills are to give notice by ad vertisement for three successive weeks, in October and November, in the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Ga zette, as the case may be, and in the local paper or papers usually in circulation in any part of the country through which the line of railway is proposed to pass, of their intention to present a petition for the re-introduc tion of any such Bill. Upon a petition for leave to bring in a railway Bill being presented during the session of 1848, and referred to the examiner of petitions, he is to examine whether the petition be the same in substance as any petition for the same purpose, and from the same parties, which was presented in the session of 1847 ; and in that case, whether any Bill b roug ht i n t o the House in pursuance of such petition in the session of 1847 was pending in either House of Parliament on the termination of such session, and, if so, whether a subscription contract, as required by the standing orders, binding in the usual way the subscribers to the undertaking, has been entered into, and is valid at the time of such inquiry, and whether the deposit of 104 per cent, upon such subscrip tions is lodged in the manner required by the standing orders. In such case, and on proof of such notice having been given as aforesaid, and if it appears that such Bill had, in the session of 1847, been suspended in the House of Lords, or in the House of Commons, on or after the second reading, the standing orders, with respect to any such Bill, are to be held to have been complied with. The time between the sec and reading of any such Bill and the meeting of the Committee thereon is shortened to three clear days, the parties to give the regular notices at the Private Bill-office. —..-- In case such gm shall have been reported in the ses sion of 1847, the Committee on the Bill are to examine hether the Bill be in every respect the same as such former Bill at the last stage of its proceeding in the House in the session of 1847, and in such case no evi dence is to be received by such Committee ; and on the reception and adoption by the House of a report of such Committee that the Bill referred to them is in every respect the same as such former Bill at the last stage of its proceeding in the House in the session of 1847, such Bill may be ordered to be engrossed without any further proceeding in respect thereof. 2. That the deposits made in respect of all railway , Bills, the proceedings on which shall have been sus pended, shall be returned to the depositors ; but that before proceeding in a future session, deposits to the same amount shall be again duly paid in, according to the standing orders of the House of Commons. 3. That a clause shall be inserted in every railway Bill, in the present and every future session of Parlia ment, prohibiting the payment of any interest or divi dend in respect of calls (except the interest by way of discount on subscriptions pre-paid, agreeably to 8 Viet., c. 16, s. 24), out of the capital authorised to be raised in such Bill, either by means of calls, or of any power of borrowing contained therein. 4. That in all cases of application to Parliament by existing railway companies, either for powers to con struct branches or extensions, or to contribute towards the expense of constructing other lines of railways, a subscription contract for three-fourths of such additional capital as may be required .for these purposes shall be given in, beyond the capital authorised for the existing lines, and deposits shall be duly paid thereon. 5. That a clause shall be inserted in every railway Bill in the present and in every future session of Parlia ment, prohibiting any railway company from paying out of the capital which they have been authorised to raise for the purposes of any existing Act, the deposits re quired by the standing orders to be made for the pur poses of any application to Parliament for a Bill for the construction of another railway. 6. That in every Bill of the present session containing powers of purchase, sale, lease, or amalgamation, a clause shall be inserted prohibiting any company from exer cising such powers until they shall have proved to the satisfaction of the Railway Commissioners that they have paid up and expended for the purposes authorised by their Acts, a sum equal to one-half of the capital authorised to be raised thereby. 7. That in future sessions of Parliament no powers of purchase, sale, lease, or amalgamation, shall be contained in any Act for the construction of a railway. 8. That in future sessions of Parliament no powers of purchase, sale, lease, or amalgamation shall be given to any railway company or companies, unless previous to their application to Parliament for such purpose they shall have proved to the satisfaction of the Railway Commissioners that they have respectivelypaid up and expended for the purposes authorised by their Act a sum equal to one-half of the capital authorised to be raised thereby. 9. That no railway company shall in the present or any future session of Parliament be authorised, except for the execution of its original line, to guarantee interest on any shares which it may issue for creating additional capital, or to guarantee any rent or dividend to any other railway company, until such first-mentioned company shall have completed and opened for traffic its original line. 10. That in Bills in the present, or any future session of Parliament, for the amalgamation of railway com panies. the amount of capital created by such amalgama tion shall in no case exceed the sum of the capitals of the companies so amalgamated. 11. That in Bills in the present, or any future session of Parliament, empowering any railway company to purchase any other railway, no addition shall be autho rised to be made to the capital of the purchasing com pany, beyond the amount of the capital of the railway purchased ; and in case such railway shall be purchased at a premium, no addition on account of such premium shall be made to the capital of the purchasing company. June 7, 1847. MONEY MARRRY.—The premium on gold at Paris is 16 per mine, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10 1 44. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.55; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.57 i, it follows that gold is 0.10 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4351 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10 1 /.d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.101; and the exchange at Hamburgh OR London at short being 13.91, it follows that gold is 0.34 per cent. dearer in Hamburgh than in London. MODEL LODGING-HOBSE.—The society for improv ing the condition of the labouring classes have opened a model lodging-house in Charles-street, Drury-lane. It pro vides for the accommodation of single labouring men in a way that must be an immense improvement upon the dens in which so many congregate nightly about St. Giles's and elsewhere. Each inmate here by paying 4d. per night, or 2s. a week, is provided with a separate bed, the means of washing (including a bath, towels, soap, &c.), a fire to cook his food at, and a room to sit in during the evening or any unemployed hours. He will also, we believe, as soon as one can be established, have the use of a small library. The rooms are clean and apparently well ventilated, and very considerable in size, and also in the number of beds they con tain. The latter are placed about two feet apart, and are to be supplied with clean sheets once a month, we believe. The establishment is under the superintendence of the same per son who established and conducted the somewhat similar lodging-house in King-street, which, besides being of great use to the class for whose benefit it was established, yields some profit, a fact which justifies the opinion entertained by the promoters of this institution that it will be a self-paying, if not a positively profitable speculation—an opinion that w'e sincerely trust will be eventually borne out. There is erne other aspect in which this institution is somewhat remark able, and which is involved in the fact that the mere posses sion of a separate bed, with means of cleanliness and decency, and a fireplace at which to cook food, should effect so great an improvement as it unquestionably will do in the condition of any class of industrious labouring men. DEPLORABLE SUlClDE.—Yesterday Mr. W. Payne held an inquest, at Bridewell Hospital, on view of the body of Captain James John Green, aged 26, late captain of the Era steamer, of Richmond, who committed suicide on the night of Friday last, off the above vessel, at the end of Arundel-stairs, Strand. At the end of a very lengthened in quiry, in which a number of witnesses were examined, it was clearly established that the deceased had contemplated the act of self-destruction, inasmuch as two letters were i f h o t u e n n d o tio i: board with his clothes, addressed to his friend s , i n hi s handwriting, taking leave of them, and stating his to commit suicide. He also spoke of a person by whom he had been illtreated, and which circumstance is said by hi, (deceased's) brother to have weighed so heavily on his mind as to bring on a morbid depression of spirits, and thus th e inducement to so rash an ac t . The body was discovered at three o'clock on Monday morning, lying on the shore nea r lilackfriars-bridge, and so determined was the deceased to accomplish the violent deed that he had tied a large stone to his neck, by means of a rope, and bad on his shirt and stock ings at the time he plunged into the water.

CHILD MURDER, near UXBRIDGE.: Yesterday Sarah Cooper, a single woman, about thirty years of age, living at Harefield, a village about four miles west of Uxbridge, who has been the mother of three illegitimate children, was finally examined before Messrs. R. H. Cox and T. Dagnall, the sitting magis trates, at Uxbridge, on a charge of having Wilfully mur dered her infant male child, her own offspring. The case excited great interest, and the large room in which the magistrates hold their sittings, in the King's Arms -yard, was crowded to excess by the inhabitants, The prisoner was first examined on Thursday last, en which day she was remanded until yesterday, when the following depositions were taken:— Policeman Godfrey, T division, deposed / that in conse quence of information he received, he went on. Wednes day last, the 2d inst., to a house at Harefield, at which the prisoner lodged, the privy of which he searched; and under the woodwork of the soil he found the body of a male infant, quite naked. After it had . been washed, it at first appeared quite white, then tlire appeared a dark mark round the throat and also on one of the arms, and the body in about ten minutes turned a dark green col Our. He then took the prisoner into custody, and told her he did so for the concealment of childbirth. The prisoner asked witness if she should plead guilty, and witness told her he could not persuade her either way, and that she had better be cautious. The prisoner then said she should not plead guilty of murder, but that it was distress that had brought her to it, and that it would be the death of her poor mother. Witness also found under the privy some old rags, marked with congealed blood. John Castle, a labourer, of Harefield, who is supposed to be the father of the deceased child, deposed that about a month after Michaelmas last the prisoner told him that she thought she was pregnant, and said, " a pretty thing that would be." She then asked him if he could get her any saffron to make away with the child, but he told her he should not do any such a thing. Sarah Smith, the wife of Christopher Sinith, of Hare field, deposed that the prisoner had lodged in her house for about eight months. Having been told the prisoner was pregnant, witness mentioned the report to her, to which she said the people who talked about her only wished she was, but she was not. Witness had men tioned it to her several times, but the prisoner always denied it. Mr. Hayes Kyd, surgeon, of Harefield, deposed to having made a post mortem examination of the body of the male infant child in question, and found it rather above the ordinary size. The chest was well filled by its organs, the lungs;well developed, and entirely inflated so as partially to conceal the pericardium. On applying the hydrostatic test, he found the lungs perfectly buoyant. From those appearances, witness was of opinion that the child was born alive, but could not state any cause of death. The body was so much decomposed that if there had been marks of violence witness could not have discovered them. Found the umbilical cord passed round the neck, and embedded in a fold of the neck. It was also crossed over the breast, and termi nated by a rupture. It was not cut but broken. Had examined the prisoner, and was of opinion that she had not been delivered of a child within the last three weeks. The prisoner, who said nothing in answer tothe charge, was then fully committed to Newgate for trial for the murder, and was soon afterwards conveyed to town. On Thursday last, Mr. Wakley, M.P., the coroner, opened an inquest in the same case, which stands ad journed until Saturday next. PRINCE OSCAR OF SWEDEN. PORTSMOUTH, JUNE B.—His Royal Highness, accom panied by Baron Rehausen, Swedish Chargé d'Affaires ; Count Rosen, M. Hjerta, Secretary to the. Swedish Em bassy; Commodore Von Krusenstjerna, dfi • the Eugenie; and Captain Hafner, Aide-de- Camprlreturned from Lond6n last evening by the five o'clock•faSt train of the South-Western Railway, and were received at the Gos port terminus at half past eight by Captain Pasco, of the Victory, Fl ag C apta i n to Sir Charles Ogle ; M. Vandenbergh, Swedish Vice-Consul ; Flag-Lieutenant Cochrane, and Mr. R. W. Stevens, Superintendent of the Railway, and were conducted to the Clarence-yard, where the Admiral's barge was in waiting to put the Prince and suite on board the Undine steam-vessel, Master-Commander Allen, which took the august party out to Spithead, to embark on board the frigate. This morning, at half-past nine o'clock, Capt. Pasco, in the Undine, brought his Royal Highness into har bour, together with the above suite and some of the officers from both vessels, in order that they might view the various objects of interest in the arsenal. His Royal Highness was received on landing at the King's -stairs by Admiral Sir C. Ogle, Bart., the Commander-in- Chief ; Mr. Brown, Master Attendant ; Mr. Fincham, Master Shipwright ; Captain James, officer of Royal Engineers in charge of works ; and M. Vandenbergh, Vice-Consul; and was conducted over the dock-yard by Captain Pasco, the details connected with the different objects inspected being minutely explained by the scien tific officers above-mentioned. His Royal Highness went on board the ships hulloing and in dock, and was parti cularly struck with the royal yacht Fairy, the beauty and splendour of th e em b e lli s h me nt s of which elictted his Royal Highness's warmest admiration. The Prince highly eulogised the taste displayed in the ,embellish ment of the yacht, which will be out of dock and ready for service this week. From the Fairy the distinguished party proceeded to the Admiralty-house, to luncheon with Sir Charles Ogle, whence they proceeded, at two o'clock, to tho King's stairs, and embarked in the Admiral's barge, which con veyed them to the Excellent to witness gunnery practice. From the Excellent the royal party visited the lirictory, over which they were conducted by her gallant and dis tinguished Captain. This fine and venerable old ship seemed to be a far greater object of interest than any other afloat. After inspecting the Victory and o ther objects of interest. the Prince and suite were enter lamed at a sumptuous banquet at the Admiralty-hoplse ! to which a gallant and distinguished party were invited. This was followed by a ball upon a splendid scale, to which the officers of the Swedish ships were generally invited, and which was also graced by the elite of the naval, military, and civil houses of this port, garrison, and neighbourhood, forming a brilliant assemblage of about 150 guests.
