Aqua se DOA BolgtUOl MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY. DR. SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, and 3fatrictilated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. 31AY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from juvenile irregularities and excesses, which have pro duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist once secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous Debility, various forms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri ages, Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless modifications owe their almost entire origin. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequenc es may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or flinctional derangement to which the timely aid of scienaacannot apply a cure DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged In an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and s the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is tree. In selecting thi, department of practice, he has been amply rewarded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, have inflicted serious injury on those who have been induced to place faith in their pretensions. At home for consultation daily from Eleven till Two, and from Six till Eight. All letters must contain the fee of If., and advice and medicines can be forwarded to any initials or address. It is desirable that patients wishing to consult Dr. LA'MERT should first obtain a copy of his work on SELF-PRESERVATION. A Medical Treatise on the Philosophy of Marriage and Nervous and Generative's Debility, illustrated by fifty-coloured engravings, and des cribing in detail the various disorders resulting from secret habits and excesses.

MANNING THE FLEET. The available resources of France in point of seamen are stated by the CoMmission, and by all the evidence on the subject, to be more than sufficient to man every ship in the fleet with excellent crews, and in a very short time. The organisation for this object undoubtedly constitutes the most for.nidable element of the French naval power, and should be clearly understood in this country. The report of the sub-commission, drawn up by M. Lanjuinais, i n f orms us t h at t h e "i nscr i pt i on mar iti me was founded by Colbert in an ordinance of 1689, and was finally established by the law of the 3d Brumaire, in the year IV. " The inscription maritime,'" he says, "places at the disposal of the State an entire class of citizens, whether in time of peace or in time of war." It applies to every man who gets his livelihood on the sea as a boatman, a fisherman, or a sailor, and includes every boatman up on r i vers as far as the spring tides are felt. Comparing the "inscription maritime " with the con scription for the army, the report admits that the former is far the more severe. "In fact," it says, " After seven years' service the soldiers are free, while sailors, on the contrary, by the law of the 3d Brumaire, are placed at the disposal of the Government from 18 to 50 years of ago ; they are obliged to embark at all times when required ; and th e y are compelled to live constantly in their ' quarters, unless furnished with leave of absence by the Commissary of the Inscription." The sub-commission denies that all this involves any violation of the principle of equality, and quotes an article of the law " By which a sailor can have his name taken off the lists of the inscription one year after a simple declaration that he wishes to renounce the profession of sailor or fisher man." General Dubourg, "Ancien Officier de la Marine," declares indeed, in his work on the subject, that the in scription is so hated, that no man follows the sea who can by possibility get a living by other means ' • that the seafaring populati on cons i s t s on l y of those who, as the children of sailors or fishermen, have had no other re source ; and he attribut es th e slow growth of French maritime commerce entirely-to this cause. But, what ever Mr. Cobden may assert, commerce is not the first object with the people of France, and the " inscription maritime" is applauded by all classes (except the seamen themselves) as the main element of their naval power. Admiral Grivel, in his evidence, does not hesitate to term it " slavery," but the commission of a Republican Assembly elected by universal suffrage nevertheless gives an unbounded approval of the "institution," terming it "this precious reserve." Whatever the character of the system in this respect, we have only to deal with it as a formidable engine constantly at the disposal of the French Government, and especially important to the object the commission had most at heart, which, as M. Dufaure, the President, expresses it, was "to create the means of passing with the greatest facility and promptitude from a peace to a war establishment. To carry out the inscription, the five arrondissements into which the coasts of France are distributed are sub divided into "sous-arrondissements" and " quartiers," under the charge of " commissaries " of various grades, of "syndics," and of "gardes maritimes," who are con stantly employed in maintaining the system in full vigour and activity ; it is always in operation during peace, and in readiness to pat forth all its power at once in case of war. These officers, to the number of upwards of 600, and their several stations on the coast, may be read in the French Navy List (Annuaire de la Marine). The men demanded from the commissaries are speedily collected and sent to the port, the centre of the ar rondissement, at each of which is a depot on shore for a division of "equipages de ligne," under a captaine de vaisseau." The moment the men arrive they are formed into " compagnies de ligne," in combination with the other principal elements required to form a crew. Each "compagnie" is under a "lieutenant de vaisseau," and consists of 104 men. They are kept constantly under training, and when a ship is to be manned they are marched on board under the lieutenant, who continues to be specially attached to his "compagnie" after em barkation. A line-of-battle ship takes five or six "com pagnies," a first-class frigate three and a half. The cap tain is appointed by the Minister of War, and about a fourth part of the complement, consisting of additional officers, artificers, engineers, and boys are provided from other sources. The main body of the crew thus joins with the foundations of order, training, and dis cipline already established, and a rapid progress to com plete efficiency is rendered easy. The report states the whole maritime population to amount to 139,310 ; 14,051 are artificers, only liable to be levied for service in the dockyards ; 3,744 are " capi taines au long cours," who, if levied, become " enseignes auxiliaires ;" 1,217 coast pilots are virtually exempt ; 6,492 " maitres au cabotage" are seldom called out in time of peace. The boys and " novices" are placed at the high figure of 42,301, and are put aside as unfit for service in the fleet, though a large number would be fully qualified for second and third class seamen. The object is, however, to man the fleet at the commence ment of a war with picked and trained men. With this important object the " levee permanente" was established in 1835, which, setting aside " The men who were weak and those who were too old or too young, extended only to seamen officers of the grade of second masters under 45 years of age, and to quarter masters and seamen bet ween 20 and 40.N0w, the lists of the levee permanents' showed, on the Ist of January, 1850, an effective force of 51,641 seamen; of 1,400 first and second masters ; 'and 3,372 maitres au cabotage.' Total, 56,760. According to the opinion of the most expe rienced officers, the maritime population fit for war se rv i ce must be reduced to this number." The "levee permanente" exists by virtue of a simple circular of April 9, 1835, setting aside by a stroke of the pen the regulations of the law of 3d Brumaire, which enacted that the seamen should be called out in classes when required, in order to lighten in some degree the oppressive character of the system. From the lists thus formed the men chosen for service are those "who have not already served the State." " If this first class does not satisfy all the requirements, whether as regards numbers or as regards grades and quali fications, the levee then t a k es as th e secon d class the sea men and seamen officers who have less than four years' ser vice • and in extraordinary c ases it can t a k e a ll t h e remain der Of the maritime population. Some commandants have complained that the levee permanente' mans the fleet with men inexperienced and weak, on account of their youth. This is true ; but this inconvenience is compen sated for by the immense advantage of making all the sailors pass through the fleet at an age when they learn readily and accustom themselves without difficulty to the yoke of discipline. The ships of war are thus a most valu able school for the young sailors, who, grown strong by the good food on board, and trained to the management of arms and to all the manoeuvres, are an excellent reserve for the fleet, and render the best services to commerce." From the 56,760 men on the "levee permanente" still further deductions are made, in order to arrive at the very pith and marrow of the seafaring population : " A note, emanating from the Ministry of Marine, dated Nov. 20, 1850, go es y e t f ur th er , t ak i ng the men whoi have not yet served the State, and whose education is in this respect incomplete, together with those who since they were paid off may have become unfit for the service, and the number of useful men from the 'inscription maritime' is reduced to 51,641." And after taking into consideration the various cir cumstances that may occur at the commencement of a war, the report arrives at the following conclusion : "We think that, taking all eventualities into account, we may depend upon 40,000 seamen eminently fit for war, and upon 20,000 borrowed partly from the `inscription,' and partly from recrutement,' capable of rendering effec tive service, ifjudiciously amalgamated with th but ef our erii ships would might, undoubtedly go b e yond this limit, . would lose in efficiency what they would gam in numbers. This would be to fall into the errors which led to the ruin of our fleets under the Empire, and which has cruelly taught us that at sea, as on land, victory belongs to the force that is best organised,and that can be first brought into the field. This does not imply that we are to count for nothing the novices with little expFrience and the seamen above age disposal , but they who are not comprised in . the (4:1,000 men of whom you transports, th d for b coastre reserved vdeed have the certain d be more than sufficient to f f o en r e s e e . rvi T ce h s i o s n p s er ho son re , nel foi; t o h u e l eq uip our entire fleet, compos e d o f the force of 328 ships, es t a blished by the ordinance of November 22, 1846. In f ac t,. according to the notes wo cite (from the Ministry of Marine), it would require to man all these ships 59,921 petty officers and seamen, of whom the thi r d p ar t s h ou ld be furnished by recrutement,' according to the proportion always admitted." By the tables at p. 318, vol. 1, we see that the petty officers, seamen, and " hommes de recrutement" form three-fourths of the numbers of which the French fleet is composed in time of peace ; the same proportions ap plied to the 60,000 men of these classes they could com mand in the event of war, will give a fleet of 80,000. According to the proportion of these classes in our fleet, 60,000 petty officers, seamen, and landsmen would be sufficient for a fleet of nearly 120,000 men. We learn by the answer of Admiral de Mackau that the number of men he calculated to be necessary to man the whole fleet, as established by the ordinance of No vember, 1846, when he was Minister of Marine, was 95,481. 40,000 picked and trained seamen out of this number would be a larger proportion than any English fleet during the war ever possessed. The "horn mes de recrutement " are landsmen, supplied to the fleet from the land conscription, on the requisition of the Minister of Marine. After seven years' service in the army, these men would be exempt from further service ; but a law is in existence by which every man who has ever served in the navy can be compelled to join it again, in case of emergency, and the sam e law would apply to the seamen who have renounced seafaring pursuits. By this means some thousand additional trained men might be obtained by no greater stretch of arbitrary power than that which, "by a simple circular," set aside the only pro tection the law afforded to seamen--viz., the levee by classes. One source remains to be mentioned—the " Infanterie de la Marine," 12,500 strong. This corps, during peace, provides garrisons for the colonies and guards for the arsenals, but it is subject to serve afloat. As 7,500 are in the colonies, only 5,000 would beat once available for sea service. The commission recommended that this corps should be abolished, and it is therefore not corn prised in its calculations ; but the most eminent naval LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 19, 1853.

Yesterday the committee of the House of Lords ap pointed to inquire into the merits of this undertakinc , met for the first time in one of the Committee -rooms. The Lords were—Lord Ormonde, Lord Southampton, Vis count Hutchi nson , t h e Earl of Romney, and the Earl of Harewood. Mr. Alexander, Q.C. (with whom was Sir T. Phillips), explained to their lordships the object of the measure. The proposed line would commence from the London and South-Western Railway at its junction with the Windsor, Staines, and Richmond Railway at Battersea, and termi nate in the Crystal Palace Park, with a branch line to the London, Brighton, and South Coast at the Norwood station of that line, and another branch to connect it with the river at the south end of the Chelsea Suspen sion-bridge now constructing, where it was proposed to establish a landing-place and pier. The measure was op posed by the South-Western Railway Company, and by two owners of property, Messrs. Chadwick and Wicks, out of about 300 others. The South-Western opposition arose upon the ground that the proposed line, from its running a portion of the way parallel with their own, would prevent their conveniently enlarging the breadth of their line, and that the Wimbledon and Croydon line, sanctioned this session, in conjunction with the existing means of communication by the Brighton line to Syden ham, rendered the Crystal Palace line superfluous. Mr. Geach, M.P., one of the directors of the line, was the first witness examined. Was of opinion that so large a number of people would be attracted to the new Crystal Palace that it would be difficult to find for them either conveyance or accommodation. The directors had proposed to make an arrangment for the purpose with the London and Brighton Company by means of their line to Sydenham and Norwood, but the utmost number of persons that company could take per day was 30,000 and he (Mr. Geach) calculated that on the fete days provision would have to be made for the accommodation and con veyance of something like 100,000 persons. It was this that led to the projection of the Crystal Palace Railway, as an adequate means of communication, and also as a west-end means of transit to and fro. They had the cor dial co-operation of the Brighton Railway. By means of the pier at Battersea they would be able to take pas sengers from the steam-boats on to the Crystal Palace Railway. The proposed line would greatly relieve the city from the well-known blockade of vehicles that filled it at certain periods of the day, and which delayed rail way and other passengers so much. The committee, on the question being formally raised, decided that the South-Western Railway Company be heard against the measure. __ _ Mr. - 0-each, cross-examined by Mr. Burke for the South-Western Railway.—The subscription list having failed so far as the public were concerned, the directors made up the required sum, 360,0001., among themselves. It would occupy the people of Belgravia in their car riages three-quarters of an hour to go the Crystal Palace. This would involv e th e necessity for horse and carriage accommodation while they remained. Sir Joseph Paxton then explained to the committee his plans for constructing the Crystal Palace, and stated that in his opinion the proposed line would be indispens able to accommodate the visi tors. The waterworks would be five times the extent of those at Versailles. The principal fountain would have 1,000 jets, there being besides two jets-d'eau, throwing the water 230 feet high, or several feet higher than the monument. If intrusted to his hands, he would undertake to get the railway palace and all complete by next May. Mr. Bidder, the engineer of the line, described its en gineering peculiarities. It would pass at 125 feet below the Crystal Palace to its junction with the Brighton. Quarter-hour trains might be run with great convenience, or at the rate of nearly 200 trains a-day, if required. Mr. Laing, M.P., chairman of the Brighton Railway, gave evidence in favour of the scheme, and stated that some other access to the Crystal Palace beyond that afforded by the Brighton line was indispensable. He had no doubt the Crystal Palace in itself would answer. He thought the line would be best worked by the South- Western Railway. Mr. Quilter, Mr. Sotheby, Mr. Sutherland, and Mr. Lee were also examined in favour of the line. From the evidence of Mr. Lee, surveyor, it appeared that in consequence of the proposed Crystal Palace and its rail way, land, heretofore worth only 1001. per-acre, had been resold at from 4001. to 8001. per acre, and that at Bat tersea had sold at eight guineas per foot.

The "sticks" have brought the steamer down very low in the water. The Dasher, 4, Commander Lefebre, got up steam to day, and will leave here to-morrow morning early. The Dasher will be in attendance on the commander-in-chief, Vice Admiral Sir Thomas John Cochrane, who proceeds to the Channel Islands in his yacht Fanny, on an offi cial visit. The Dasher has been engaged in surveying the dangerous rocks, and in instructing several second masters in the navigating any of her Majesty's vessels about this dangerous coast, thus avoiding the expense, as well as the interminable delay, o f th e Ch anne l Islands'- pilots.

Bailey.— A letter from Halifax, bearing date June 7, states " Here we are to bring very many unpleasant matters to issue—by the aid of courts-martial. You may remember in my last I made known to you what a pretty mess the ship was in by continued arrests, even amongst the offi cers and engineers, and the ship almost in a state of mu tiny. I have no time to go into further particulars now, as the mail is just upon leaving. My next will be important. PLYMOUTH, JULY 18. Several regattas arc appointed to take place during the next 10 days—the Royal Western Yacht Club (Ply mouth) and the Devonport (rowing), on Wednesday, the 20th of July ; the Port of Plymouth, on Thursday, the 21st ; Teignmouth, Tuesday, the 26th ; and Tor quay, Thursday, the 28th. WOOLWICH, JULY 18. APPOINTMENT. Mate—William R. Boulton (1852), to the Waterloo, 20, flagship, at Sheerness. The Terrible, steam-frigate, Captain M'Cleverty, is under orders to leave Woolwich to-morrow for Green hithe, where she will have her compasses adjusted, and afterwards proceed round to Portsmouth to join the fleet assembled at that station. The Dover, iron steam-vessel, had her compasses ad justed in the basin on Saturday last, and is now ready to return to her former station in the Gambia, on the west coast of Africa. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT:—LuwEs, JULY 13. The Commission for the county of Sussex was opened here on Saturday, and this morning business was pro ceeded with in both Courts at twelve o'closk ; the Lord Chief Baron presiding on the Crown side, and Mr. Justice Cresswell on the Civil side. The business of the assize is very heavy for this place, especially at the summer circuit, the gaol calendar containing no less than three very serious charges of murder, two of arson, one of manslaughter, one of burglary, rape, &c. On the Civil side ten causes are entered, seven of which are special jury cases. The Lord Chief Baron, in his charge to the grand jury called their attention to the incovenienee that was created by the committal of persons for the crime of arson, where the evidence against them, at most, amounted to suspicion. He said that it would appear that from the nature of the crime, and the difficulty, and, indeed, almost impossibility of obtaining direct evidence, there was opinion that less evidence was sufficient to justify a committal than was required in an ordinary case of felony. This, he sa id , was a most erro neous opinion, and one which wa s ca l culated most mate rially to affect the interests of justice, for in proportion to the serious character of an offence, care ought to be taken not to commit a prisoner to take his trial for it, unless the evidence was such as would justify any reason able mind in coming to the conclusion that there was a pro bality of a conviction. He was happy to say that mischie vous offences of this description had latterly very much de creased, but every one must feel the mischief that was created when a person against whom a strong suspicion of guilt prevailed was acquitted through being committed for trial upon insufficient evidence, and in all such cases it was much better to wait untilreasonably conclusive evidence was obtained to fix the guilt upon a particular indivi dual than to commit upon mere suspicion, when the re sult must inevitably be an acquittal, and the party ac cused would thus altogether escape. Ile said he was induced to mention this from what had occurred during the present assizes in a neighbouring county, and he merely threw out the suggestion, being fully aware that with gentlemen of their experience it would be properly acted upon in future. John Broome the pugilist, was called up on t o sur render to take his trial for misdeamour, in having un lawfully obtained a large sum of money from William Hamp, by means of fraud and cheating at cards. The defendant did not appear. Mr. Parry said he was instructed on behalf of the defendant, and his solicitor informed him that he was ill in the early part of the morning, but that it was his intention to surrender in the course of the day and take his trial. Mr. Creasy reminded his lordship that two persons had already been convicted of being concerned in the act imputed to the defendant, and that he had ab sconded. He surrendered at the last assizes, and the Court postponed the trial to these assizes, with the understanding that it should then positively come on. Under these circumstances he thought the recognizances of the defendant should be entreated. Mr. Johnson, who was with Mr. Creasy for the pro secution, said, in point of fact, he was not prepared to go on that moment as the prosecutor was not. present. He was under a recognizance of 5001. to appear at these assizes, but he was informed that be was not present, and he would not go on in his absence. The Lord Chief Baron said that, under these circum stances, as neither of the parties were ready, the case must of course stand over for the present. How TO MARE A DEBTOR OF A CREDITOR.—A Gascon meeting an acquaintance, asked him to lend him fifteen francs. "Fifteen ! I have only ten in my pocket !" «O 1), very well; give me the ten, and you can pay me the five at your convenience." THE CAMP AT C.IIOBHAM COMMON. It is scarcely possibl e to imagine a more deplorable or more uncomfortable scene than that which the camp presented yesterday. Each successive day appears to add something to the discomforts of the 9,000 men who, in damp tents, surrounded with trenches filled with water, or knee-deep in mud and swamp when they yen tux& out of their circular houses, still go through a round of semi.military duties at Chobham. To such a pitch had matters arrived even on Saturday that detachments of the Bth Hussars and the 2d Dragoons were mounted to march in search of billet accommodation for the regi ment in the neighbouring towns. In consequence, how ever, of the weather clearing up, the order was counter manded, in the hope that a favourable change would take place. Sunday showed a slight improvement upon the previous day, and orders were issued for a field-day, to take place yesterday. All the troops were accordingly under arms shortly after nine, but the rain commenced falling in torrents, which, with slight intervals, con tinued throughout the whole of the day till, at two o'clock, an intimation was given to the men that they would not be required to turn out. It was gene rally expected that one or more of the cavalry and some of the infantry regiments would leave the camp yester day, billeting parties having been ordered to be in readi ness. Any attempt to go through a regular field day in the present state of the ground would be absurd. The horses, on going to water, sink above knee deep in the swamps, and the gallant Greys, on their return to stables, are scarcely distinguishable from the black chargers of the Horse Guards. The men, and especially the Guards, complain sadly of the injury which their clothes sustain, the more so as they are wearing their own clothes, their new uniforms having been kept in barracks. It is re ported that, should the present rainy weather continue over the present week, the whole of the troops will leave their present quarters, and the camp would be broken up. Some cork mattresses, supplied by Messrs. Taylor and Son, have just been served out, on trial, to each of the regiments ; probably it is thought that their buoyant character renders them well adapted for the present state of the ground. A new description of camp kettle, with bottoms formed of block tin, has also been supplied. Every practical suggestion which is made for increasing the comforts and improving the condition of the soldiers appears to receive prompt attention at head quarters, and every person with an inventive genius, desirous of reducing the ills and inconveniences to which the British soldier is subjected to its lowest minimum, has now an opportunity of having the value of his panacea fully tested in the present experimental campaign. The following is the nu'mbor of letters sent to and from the camp from the first day of the establishment of the office up to the change of troops on Thursday last : Inwards, from June 14 to July 14 34,493 Outwards, ditto Total The number of letters to the camp show but little variation through the course of the month, but those from it are much affected by the field-days, sinking from about 1,500, the usual number when the forces were not out, to about 600 on days when field manoeuvres took place. Among the unclaimed letters is one directed to " His Eminence Cardinal Antonelli, Secretary to his Holiness the Pope." Another also bears the laconic superscription of to "Mr. Cox Cook, Militia Camp." The last-named person has been found, but that to the cardinal remains at the post-office, and is likely to do so for some considerable length of time, as it is to be left until his eminence calls for it. In one of our previous reports we stated that in the athletic games of the household troops the Grenadier Guards were victors over their competitors in the Fusiliers and Coldstream. This was an error ; what we meant to have said was that the Scots Fusilier Guards were victors over the Grenadier and Coldstream. We are very willing to correct this mistake, and give the honour where the honour is due. His Royal Highness Prince Alfred visited the camp during the course of yesterday afternoon. His Royal Highness did not make any long stay, merely passing along the lines. He was vehemently cheered during his progress by the men of the different regiments. STRIKE AMONG THE POLICESIEN.—The police for t ce t h w a o s a strike, like many oth er c l asses . They a grounds of complaint-I s t, th a t they are : er compelled s to go to church in unifor m , an d o bliged to sit in paltiTi lar part of the church ; an d, 2dly, that their pay is In sufficient. There are three classes in the force—the highest receiving 21s. per week; the - second, 13s. 4d. ; deduction, and the third, 16s. 7d. ; there being a small each week from each man. Various meetings have taken place among the men on the subject of the strike and 30 men of the B division refused to go to church in their uniforms. The agitation is still going on, and a large number of the men threaten to resign. PROFESSORSHIPS IN THE UNIVERSITIES OF SCOT LAND.—The bill to regulate the admission of professors to the lay chairs in the Universities of Scotland as amended in committee was yesterday printed. From the passing of the act professors are not t o b e required to subscribe to the confession of faith prescribed by the statute of Anne. A new declaration has been formed, the substance of which is that they will not teach or in culcate any opinions opposed to the Divine authoritiy of the Iloly Scripture or the Westminster Confession of Faith, as ratified by law in 1690, and that they will not exercise the functions of the offices to the prejudice of the Church of Scotland as by law established, or the doctrines and privileges thereof. Two new clauses have been added in committee—one, that a professor sued for non-compliance with the act may offer in defence to take the declaration to be provided ; and the other, that the Lord Advocate may present a complaint against any professor violating the declaration, and her Majesty may issue a commission to inquire, and may censure or suspend. %L?-?ic---<- • officers give vidence in its favour, and the opinion of the com ' sion has been disregarded.

Vice-Admiral Hugon in his evidence, page 69, "" i A ~ NS ' . 4 1 expresses the opinion of the French officers as to th 410sA -4 '`'' 'l / 4 4 .... 44.4 state of their navy : " The fleet is extremely well composed ; it is in a better state than it has been in for 50 years. The ships are well fitted; the crews are well fed, well clothed, and rowdily lodged; the officers have all the knowledge that can be desired; they have acquired, besides, a great deal of expe rience at sea ; the o ffice rs are now really seamen, much more so than they have ever been since the first revolu tion. The ships sail well ; their armament is excellent; what we should do is to maintain the actual system. My fear would rather bo that anything should be changed. I would forbid that the principal things of the marine should be touched for at least 10 years to come." The fleet of ships, he says :- "Is entirely in proportion to the resources we have in the 'inscription maritime.' While the ships were being completed (at the outbreak of war) the sailors would arrive; the ships ready, the 4 coinpaguies permuuentes' would furnish their crows, and in a very short time they might take the sea in a state t) meet the enemy." Vice-Admiral de Ia Susse says,— " The number of men of the 'inscription maritime' be tween 20 and 40 years of two amounts to 50,000 ; by add ing to these the men warn the ' recrutement' and the 'lnfanterie de la Marine' could supply, France, in case of a naval war, would have 90,000 disposable men, sufficient to man all the ships of the fleet. . We might greatly multiply similar ext rac t s , f or such are the universal opinions of the French officers, who also very generally enlarge on the deficiency of orga nized means of raising seamen in England to meet an emergency. Probably the French organization would prove less perfect in practice than in theory, and we have resources for obtaining men without resorting to impressment, which, if known to the French officen, are at least not referred to. Still it cannot be denied that the due organization of our immense resources has been greatly neglected ; and if we should incur disasters from the measur e s w hi c h have been so carefully pre pared without our knowledge, or at least without pro ducing any adequate measures ofprecaution on our part, we shall but reap the natural consequence of a perpe tually changing naval executive, trammelled by party politics. No one would be responsible, for the fault lies in the system, and extends over a period o f 38 y ears . It is most desirable to make employment in the navy an object of desire to the best seamen in the country, and the present Admiralty is doing good service in this re spect. Still the great difficulty is how to raise a great body of seamen in case of war, and as yet we have but feeble and remote palliatives for a pressing deficiency. (To be continued.) INVERNESS GREAT SHEEP AND WOOL FAIR. Our annual market commenced, as usual, on Thurs day last—the second Thursday of July. Its importance to the whole northern counties is well known, for it in cludes the disposal of our staple products—sheep and wool ; and sales of the value of about 200,000/. are transacted. A slight rise or fall in prices, extending over large flocks and whole districts of the country, is therefore regarded with lively interest ; and we are happy to say that for several years there has been a steady advance in the value of both sheep and wool, consequent upon the continued prosperity of the coun try. Last year we recorded a considerable rise, and this season the advance has been from 20 to 30 per cent., including all the descriptions of sheep—lambs, ewes, and wedders—particularly lambs, on which the advance is greatest. All were in great demand. Fat stock sold high last year ; the buyers made well by their Inver ness purchases ; and, though the turnip crop is rather under than over an average, it has revived with late rains, and the demand for mutton can scarcely be met by the supply. Our friends from the south, therefore, came pre pared to give good prices, and the farmers have not been disappointed. In wool the sales have been limited, in consequence of the prices asked. From 20 to 30 per cent. on last year's prices, and even more, was offered, and, in many instances, refused—the sellers of the great lots being disposed to consign their wool to the commis , sion agents at Liverpool. The wool purchasers from England state that business is considerably unsettled by the Turkish question and the rumours of war. The con sumption of wool has for some time exceeded the supply, although there has been no falling off in the imports of foreign wool. In fact, the general prosperity of the country, and the increasing amount of our exports, affect equally the value of the fleece and the carcase, and tend to benefit the sheep farmers in no ordinary degree. Their grain, however, is an index to the flourishing state of the kingdom, and no one else can advance in trade without extending the benefit to other interests, all of which are mutually dependent on each other. . . At the ordinary on Friday the large room of the Cale donian Hotel was filled to overflowing. As four o'clock approached, the gentlemen formed parties in the lobby, ready to take possession as soon as the door was opened ; and when this took place, there was a tremendous rush towards the seats, which were in stantaneously occupied, and many gentlemen forced to retire. The chair was takeir by Alex. Campbell, Esq., pf Monzie, who had p rev i ous ly b een wa i te d upon by a party of gentlemen connected with the market, and re quested to preside. The croupiers were Provost Suther land, Mr. Kennedy, Kirkland, by Thornhill, and Mr. Mactavish, Ness Park, town clerk of Inverness. Around the chairman were Provost Grant of Elgin, Dr. Manson, Spynie ; Mr. Waterston, manager, Cale donian Bank ; Mr. Brown of Linkwood ; Mr. Gunn, Rhives ; Mr. Horne of Langwell ; Mr. Gillespie, Ar dachy, &c. The company consisted of gentlemen whose names are elsewhere mentioned as constituting part of the attendance at the fair. No district of Scotland could produce a body of men of greater intelligence, re spectability, or enterprise. Ample justice was done to an excellent dinner ; and the chairman ordered a copi ous supply of champagne, which had the effect of quick ening the animation and hilarity of the party. The sales of wool are proceeding, and it is believed that the total amount disposed of will not be so much inferior to the sales of former years as was anticipated early in the day. The good lots are from ss. to 7s. per stone above last year's prides. —lnverness Courier. CHARGE OF MURDER AND MANSLAUGHTER AGAINST TUE CAPTAIN OF AN AFRICAN SHIP. On Saturday, at the Liverpool police-court, a charge of murder was brought against Captain J. W. Chapman, of the ship Cleopatra, trading between that port and the coast of Africa. From the evidence of the carpenter of the ship, William Duncan, who was the complainant, it appeared that the Cleopatra sailed from Liverpool for Bonny River on the 16th of August, 1852, with 21 men of a crew, including captain and mate. On the Ist of October the Cleopatra fell in with the Vicar of Bray, Captain Harrison. The two captains visited each other several times, a boy named White being engaged in rowing the boat of the Cleopatra from ship to ship. On the night of the 2d of October, when it was dark and squally, the boat in which White was placed was hauled close to the Cleopatra in a very dangerous position. It capsized n o li n s c w e, as bu tld t o rig t h o te t d he ag c a a i p n t , ai a n nd w lV o hi r t e e fu co se n d tin iA u it e h d i an oath to allow any person to interfe're with it, and the d result n e w d a . s S t t a o t r t t l l y t e a boat t h a s a t i n h e capsizedidz.,-tendudut under r l c us ta t hp e et a w di n a r k e e c p t t i o h n i where n in n of th ironse the e in s t captain, a l t i b v s nyi can,g a m t b e e iadnlsh of e doctor Barba does, boarded does the ship, communicated with the authorities, who arrested the entire crew, and all, with the exception of complainant, were tried for piracy and mutiny, and sentenced to from one to three years' imprisonment.

The magistrate, after some discussion, declined to entertain the charge, as it had been fully investigated by the highest court at Barba does. The captain was discharged, but immediately afterwards arrested on a charge of murder, which was gone into yesterday (Monday) at the Liverpool police court, when, after hearing all the evidence in support of the charge, the magistrate expressed his conviction that it was not sufficient to justify him in committing the prisoner, who was accordingly discharged. THE MAILS.—SOUTHAMPTON, Monday, July 18.— The Royal Mail Steam Ship, Magdalena, Captain C. M. Chapman, sailed this afternoon with the usual West India and Pacific mails, in charge of Lieutenant Ticket, R.N., Admiralty Agent.
