It is not sur prising that a power which stands alone in Europe —which cannot rely upon the assistance, or even the sympathy, of a single civilised nation in the quarrel which it has provoked—should seek allies in regions even more barbarous than its own ; and the consideration, whatever it may be, which has purchased the friendship of the Shah and his ad visers, will be well repaid by any annoyance which his arms may occasion to our Indian possessions. As a wise preparation for hoStilities, the Persian Sovereign has, it appears, decided on dismissing " the English, French, German, and Italian officers serving•in his army." There can be no doubt that the war department of St. Petersburg will be able to supply the vacancies thus created ; and it is pro bable enough that the progress which the Shah's troops have as yet made in the military art may not 'be such as to render it safe that their barbarian energy should, in actual warfare, be restrained by the strict rules of European discipline. It is, moreover, at the present moment, not very unlikely that their first contest may be with Asiatic forces, and that, far from proving " useful auxiliaries to their imperial ally, they may, before long, have to invite his assistance to secure them in' their own possessions. In our Second Edition of yesterday, we mentioned a rumour that Dost Ma homed, who is notorious for his enmity to Russia, has made demands on Persia which can hardly be conceded; but which; if refused, will be enforced With all t the - strength of the extensive territory Which he governs. Should this intelligence be cor rect, a move, which at first sight appeared a mas terstroke of Imperial policy, may turn out to have been a most serious mistake, and maybe productive of no small embarrassment to hoth the contracting parties. It would be a signal and satisfactory in stance' of prompt retribution, if Russian `finesse should thus prove " overstrong against itself," and if resources designed for the subjugation of Europe should be drained for the support of an impotent Asiatic ally. Time alone can prove the correctness of these anticipations. In the meanwhile, active operations appear to be suspended, ror the present, in Georgia as well as on the Danube ; and it is even stated, in the despatch from Vienna which we publish else where that Turkish bulletins acknowledge the entire evacuation of the Russian territory in Asia. This can scarcely be correct, since by all our most recent accounts, the Ottomans still retain their important acquisition of Fort St. Nicholas ; but there 'seems to be "little doubt, from Our Constantinople de spatch of the 19th inst., that the Turks have foUnd it impracticable to continue the sieges' of Achalzik and Alexandropol._ We are still, however, without any authentic details respecting either Prince Andronikoff's " unheard-of' achievements of the 26th of November, or the alleged rout of Abdi Pacha:by Prince Beboutoff on the 2d inst. Our present accounts show that the Ottoman arms have suStainecl,a check at both of those places ; but they certainly contain nothing which can be readily identified with the brilliant and decisive Russian victories described in the Imperial bulletins. It may not improbably turn out that the boasted Russian successes simply consist in repulsing, for the present, an attack which menaced the Czar's tenure of Georgia ; and it is certain that, unless his forces have achieved some very substantial tri umph, their position may again, at no distant period, become exceedingly critical. In Daghestan, Schamyl and hii warlike mountaineers are in vigo rous action, prepared, as opportunity may serve, to co-operate effectively with the Turkish generals; and Prince Woronzoff may well strain every effort to avert a junction, which, if once effected, would gravely imperil his position at Tiflis. It is no doubt true that the Court of St. Peters burg is prepared, in Asia as well as in the Da nubian provinces, for a prolonged and obstinate conflict. The Imperial policy has never been too regardful of human life, and it seems to have adopted as its maxim the answer of a wit, who, when told of a battle in which thousands of Russians had been sacrificed, replied that "there was no harm done—it was so easy for Providence refaire les Busses." But, should events once dispel the prestige attaching to a name feared and detested by many a half-subjugated tribe—should the tram- Caucasian provinces once succeed in asserting, even partially and temporarily, their independence of Muscovite rule, multitudes will befound to follow the example, and the more recent accessions to the overgrown Empire will form a source of weakness rather than of strength. It is at least certain that Prince,,Woronzoff's reinforcements least in future arrive either by land or by the, Caspian ; for: the instructions given to the commanders of the combined fleets distinctly require them to confine the Imperial fleet in the Euxine within the harbour of Sebastopol. We may, therefore, assure ourselves that, in any case, the repetition of such a tragedy as the Sinope butchery is impossible. Each detail which we receive relative to that much vaunted " victory" aggravates the guilt of those by whom it was achieved ; and the official account is sued by the Porte mentions two circumstances which we have not before noticed, ono of which peculiarly concerns English readers. It is stated that burning pieces of oiled linen were thrown into the town for the purpose of destroying it by fire— a humane intention which was, to a considerable extent, accomplished ; and the fact affords an in structive commentary on the letter addressed by Admiral Nachimoff to the Austrian Consul, in which he gives a full and particular account of the " sole end of the arrival of the Imperial fleet in the roads of Sinope." He had learned, it seems, that the Turkish ships, " which had been continually to the coast of Abassie, in order to cause the people submitted to Russia to revolt, had taken refuge in the harbour, and thus he had been reduced to the deplorable necessity of attacking them, at the risk of causing damage to the city and port." Like a true servant of his veracious So vereign, the admiral claims, and probably ex pects, credit for professions as utterly inconsistent with his conduct as ever was any apology which Russian craft has invented for Russian brutality. The other circumstance to which we have refer red is infinitely more material to the British Go vernment and people. It appears that an English merchant vessel, with the English co l ours flying at her mast head, was fired upon and sun k by the aggressors. We know not what pretext, o f it d e _ plorable necessity" or the like, may be invented to gloss over this barbarity ; but, unless w e are pre pared intru sion, it is an insult, not to b e " explained" aßussian s a i a t oncen lake, to a cno and es s justly o u punrse s c h s e trespassers , f o ed" our b il u P t to on be atoned for. It is signifi can t that the from St. Petersburg ha ve no t , that accounts mentioned this fact, alth oug h it might e have recollecteen, expected that the very earliest opportunity would have been taken for offering some flagrant an outrage. If, however, the Czar has made up his mind to war, it perhaps, not amiss that it should begin with apology for so a wanton injury to our commerce and an audacious insult to our flag, offered by an enemy whose treacherous professions have hitherto induced us to abstain front adopting those measures which would adequately have se cured both the safety of the one and the honour of the other.

JAMES'S, CLERKENITELL. —On the day after Christmas-day a largo hamper was delivered to the master of the Clerkenwell Workhouse, containing 13 turkeys and a round of beef; a note accompanying it, from Messrs. Clark and Ingles, of Apsley-house, Pen tonville-hill, requested the master's acceptance of the contents for the poor in the workhouse, in consideration of this inclement season. On the matter being reported to the guardians, some difficulty arose as to the distri bution of this. Christmas fare, the number in the work house precluding the possibility of giving a share to every inmate. The decision was that it should he sup plied to the sick, the old, and the infirm, as a treat on New year's-day. The following extract from the Glasgow North British Daily Mail goes to verify our statement about the preparation in England of war steamers for the Czar. This paragraph from our Scottish con temporary intimates that "machinery" for certain war steamers is being completed on the Clyde—the hulls being in preparation apparently elsewhere : "'We understand that an official letter from Lord Palmerston, as secretary for the Home Department, has been received this week by the civic authorities of Glasgow, requesting to know particulars respect ing some war steamers which his lordship was in formed were building on the Clyde for the Emperor of Russia. His lordship has, we believe, been misin formed on the subject, as there are no ships build ing here for the Czar ; but there are at present being constructed two pairs of powerful first-class marine engines and machinery for war steamers, by one of our first engineers, who is under contract to have them at Cronstadt in Ap r il , and to f i t them up in the vessels there by his own workmen. Although thew are no ships building hers for the Autocrat, we have reason to believe that his lordship may learn something on the subject if he institutes in ' qufries on the banks of the Tyne or Wear." thanceLlor :—. lea of the iy of De the Lord I, Robert Monsey Lord Cranworth, Lord High Chan cellor of Great Britain, by and with the advice and as sistance of Sir John Romilly, Master of the Rolls, the Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard Torin Kindersley, the Vice- Chancellor Sir John Stuart, and the Vice• Chancellor Sir William Page Wood, do hereby, in pursuance of an act of Parliament passed in the 16th and 17th years of the reign of her present Majesty, intituled, An act for the better Administration of Charitable Trusts," and in pursuance and execution of all other powers enabling me in that behalf, order and direct That any application to the Master of the Rolls, or to a Vice-Chancellor, under "The Charitable Trusts Act, 1853," section 28, shall be made by summons, and such summons may be in the form set out in schedule A, an nexed to the general of the 16th day of October, 1852, or as near thereto as the nature of the case may permit. The Les payable on proceedings before the Master of the or any of the Vice Chancellors, under the said act, shah be the same as are payable according to the order of the 2.Jd day of October, 1852, in repect of other proceedings commencing by summons. and shall be col lected by means of stamp,;. as directed by the order of the 25th day of October, 1852. In all cases in which the Master of the Rolls or any Vice-Chancellor shall direct that any matter commenced by summons under the said act, shall be heard in open court, the same fees shall be payable, and the same costs shall he allowed as would have been payable in respect of any other matter.so heard. No order made under the said act by the Master of the Rolls or by any of the Vice - Chancellors shall be subject to appeal where the gross annual income of the Charity has not been declared by the Charity Commissioners for England and Wales to exceed one hundred pounds, unles the Master of the Rolls or the Vice-Chancellor by whom such order may have been made, shall certify that such appeal ought to be permitted either absolutely, or on such terms as the said Master of the Rolls, or vice- Chancellor may think fit to impose.

(From the London Gazette of last night.) By the Queen--A Proclamation. VICTORIA R.—Whereas by our order in Council of this day's date, We were graciously pleased to annul, from and after the thirty-first day of March next, our Royal pro clamation of the thirtieth oay of July, one thousand eiglit hundred and forty-nine, regulating, according to the scheme set forth therein or recognised thereby, the distri bution of the net proceeds of prizes captured from the enemy, of captures and seizures under the several acts of Parliameet passed, relating to the revenues of Customs, and to trade and navigation, for the abolition of the slave trade, for the capture and destruction of pirates and piratical vessels, and of the rewards conferred for the same ; as also of the awards for the salvage granted to the crews of our ships and vessels of war, when not otherwise specially apportioned by the terms of the respective awards and allowances ; and in consequence of several new ratings and denominations and certain alterations having been in troduced and made in our royal naval service since the date of our said 'former proclamation, and for other causes, it is expedient that provision should be made for the future distribution of such net proceeds and salvage not other wise specially apportioned, and all other monies whatso ever granted to be shared among the officers and crews of our ships and vessels in the manner of prize money. We do, therefore, now make known to all our loving subjects, and to all others whom it may concern, by this our -proclamation, by and with the advice and consent of our Privy Council, that our royal will and pleasure is, and we do hereby direct that the distribution of all such net proceeds of prizes, rewards, allowances, salvage awards, and of all bounties and grants whatsoever distributable to our royal navy in the manner of prize money shall be made as follows, viz.:— • That the flag officer or officers sliall have one-twentieth part of the whole net proceeds arising from prizes captured from the enemy, and from all other c Iptures and seizures, ke., as aforesaid, made by any of the ships or vessels un der his or their command, and of the rewards conferred for the same, according to the following conditions and d m i o re d e i t fi e c d at . io t n h s a , t s i a s v t e o a sa n y d : except as hereinafter provided and When there is but one flag officer he shall have the en tire one twentieth part, when two flag officers shall be sharing together, the chief shall have two thirds and the other flag officer shall have the remaining one third of the one twentieth part ; and when there shall be more than two flag officers, the chief shall have one half of the said one twentieth part, and the remaining half shall be equally divided among the junior flag officers. Commodores of the first class and captains of the fleet to share as flag officers, Provided always, that no flag officer, unless actually on board any of our ships or vessels of war, and at the actual taking, sinking, burning, or otherwise destroy ing any ship or ships of war, privateer or privateers, be longing to the enemy, shall share in the distribution of any head money or bounty money granted as reward for UNIVERSITY REFORM. • The following letter has been forwarded to is for publication : " , Dec 12. "Sir,—Her M a j esty ' s Government Whiteha hav ll e had . before them the letter addressed by my predecessor on the 4th of October, 1852, to the Chancellor of the University of Cambridge. " Your Royal Highness will, without doubt, remember that her Majesty was pleased, in her speech from the Throne, on the 11th of November, 1852, to acquaint Parliament that she had caused to be transmitted to the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, respectively, copies of the reports of the Commissioners of Inquiry upon those Universities, and had called the attention of those Universities to those reports with a view to a de liberate examination of the recommendations contained therein. "A statement was subsequently made to the House of Commons, that the Government thought it desirable that ample time should be allowed for a full examination of those matters, and that it was not intended that any legislation on the subject of the recommendation of the Commissioners should be proposed to Parliament during the then current session. "At the same time, though it was not deemed ex pedient to discuss the various details connected with subjects so important and diversified as the matters in question, yet reference was made to some essential points, with respect to which Her Majesty's Govern ment conceive that it would be the desire and expecta tion of Parliament, with a view to the public welfare and to the extension of the useful influence of the Uni versities, that plans of improvement should be enter tained. " These points were : " 1. An alteration of the constitution of the Univer sities with a view to the more general and effective re presentation of thelseveral main elements which properly enter into their composition. " 2. The adoption of measures which might enable the Universities, without weakening the proper securi ties for discipline, to extend the benefits of training to a greater number of students, whether in connexion or not with Colleges and Halls, and also to diminish the relative disadvantages which now attach within Colleges and Halls to students of comparatively limited pecuniary means. " 3. The establishment of such rules with regard to Fellowships, and to the enjoyment of other College en dowments, as might wholly abolish or greatly modify the restrictions which now, in many cases, attach to those Fellowships and endowments, and might subject the acquisition of such Fellowships and endowments generally to the effective influence of competition. " 4. The establishment of such regulations with re• gard to fellowships thus to be acquired by merit as should prevent them from degenerating into sinecures, and especially the enactment of a provision that after fellowships should have been held for such a time as nnglit be thought reasonable as rewards fir early exer tion and distinction. they should either he relinquiSbed, or should only continue to be held on condition of resi dence, coupled ',vitt] a discharge of active duty in disci pline or tuition, or with the earliest pro , ecutiun of pri vate study. "5. And, lastly, the establishment of provisions under which colleges p , itiossed nF meal's either particularly ample, Or now only partially applied to the purposes of education or le,:riiing, might, in conformity with the views which founders have often indicated, render some portion of their property available for the general pur poses of the University beyond as well as within the college walls, and might thus facilitate the energetic prosecution of some branches of study the importance of which the University have of late distinctly and specially acknowledged. " It is obvious that for the attainment of these ends provision must be made for the careful adjustment of existing statutes and for the abolition or modification of certain oaths which are now periodically administered in some of the colleges. " There are other changes tending to the increased efficiency and extent of study which would naturally accompany or follow those to which I have adverted, but what I have stated may be enough to explain the general expectations which her Majesty's Government have been led to form under the influence of their sin cere desire to acknowledge the services and to respect the dignity and due independence of these noble institu tions, and to see their power and influence enlarged to the full measure of the capabilities indicated by their splendid endowments. "Actuated by these views, her Majesty's Government did not hesitate to determine that, so far as depended upon them, a considerable interval of time should elapse, after the re p orts of the commissioners had appeared, be fore any specific propositions should be discussed as to the d egree and nature of the legislation respecting th e Universities which it might be requisite to submit to Parliament. " Her M a j es ty' s Government, however, feel that th e time has now arrived when it will be due, both to the country of which these universities are such conspicuous ornaments, and to the well understood interests of the universities themselves, that these questions should be decided. " I capacity of Chancellor ofthe Universityof Cambridge, r therefore request that your Royal Highness will, in y a o v n goodness to take an early opportunity of inform einte what measures of improvement that U n i vers it y, the o u r )g so far as your Royal Hi 6 lness's knowledge extends, any of its Colleges may be about to undertak e , an d and what aid they may. desire from Parliament in th e form either of prohibitions, of enabling powers, or of new enactments. "Her Majesty's Government are anxious to receive this information in such time as may enable them to give to this important subject the careful deliberation it demands, and to be in a condition to advise her Majesty thereupon, if possible, by the month of February. "Her Majesty's Government, however, have no hesi tation in avowing their opinion, that repeated and minute interference by Parliament in the affairs of the Universities and their colleges, would be an evil, 'and they are desirous to maintain the dignity of these insti tutions and to secure for them the advantages of free dom of action. For these reasons, therefore, as well as on other grounds, they earnestly hope to find, on the part of these bodies, such mature views and such en larged designs of improvement as may satisfy ie rea sonable desires of the country ; and by obviating the oc casion for further interference, may relieve those per sons in the Universities who are charged with th e weighty functions of discipline and instruction, from gohe thes distraction which the prospect of s u c h i n t erposition must d r s necessarily entail.—l am, sir, yo ur R uti ful servant, (Signed) " PALMERSTON. "To Field Marshal his Royal Highness Prince Albert, &c., Chancellor of the University of Cambridge." COLLISION ON THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY.:-- Yesterday morning an accident happened to the 9 50 Great Northern mixed express, due in London at 4 p.m., a short diStance south of the Doncaster station, which has resulted in th e demolition of some of the. com pany's rolling stock, while the passengers had a very narrow escape. The train arrived in Doncaster with in a very few minutes of the time at.which it was dne, and after it had proceeded about 400 or tOO yards south of the station, it came into violent collision with a mine ral train, which was crossing from the main line into a siding to allow the express to pass. The express train ran into the third and fourth waggons of the mineral train, and they were smashed to pieces and thrown on their side. The fifth waggon from the • engine• was broken, and the buffer planks of the express engine were shivered to pieces. The passengers were very much terrified with the shock which they had received by being thrown from their seats, but we did no t o b serve any that were injured. Mr. Johnson, the locomotive superintendent, Mr. Mullens, the station master, Mr. Middlemess, the mineral agent, and several other offi cials, were immediately upon the sp o t with an efficient staff of labourers, and the line was sufficiently clear in about half an hour to allow the express to proceed on its destination. The down line was cleared in about an hour afterwards, so that the ordinary passenger traffic was not further interrupted. 11 6 , 14 10 1 6”65 , , a O, :, 17 • a 0 , 5 0 (1 p 5 IS 9t-oft lee Vile" lie ID 1-1-01 eto 96 b•O THE EXECUTI President—The Right Hai Vice-PreAdent—THOMAS E.

The tribeof 'Quiet Sympa hisers,' and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from the corn -daint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of 'ess importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize— •nuch money...... This volume is well qualified to put an end to the empirical system of treating Spermatorrheea, and to place the treat ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852. London: 11. Italliere, 219, Regent-street. MEDICAL AD YOUTH AND MATURITY.CE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF DR. 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, dec., &c. MAY 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 ence 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 Unfhtitfill 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 coniequene es may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. DOCTOR L.VMERT has for a long series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and is the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless of the taunts and envy of thehypocritleal 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 free.
