Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Ilerbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than I ever was befsre the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an 11 s. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact.-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair frcm coming away with the comb, make it strong, and arevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing 3dour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops n the erown of the head; if vzry bad, repeat it every quarter of an our. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces air on ehildren's heads in a few appplicati one. If used on infants' eads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—Seo pamphlet of testimonials. .Allletters addressed to William Grimstone Hetbary, Highgato.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PLYMOUTH, JUNE 22.—This morning, a little before five o'clock, her Majesty's ship Queen, 110, Captain Sir Henry J. Leeke, with the Port-Admiral's flag (white) at the main, cleared her mooring inside the western arm of the breakwater, under topgallant sails, courses, and spanker. When abreast of the west end of the break water, she set her royals. After passing the outer shoals she hauled up her courses, took in her royals, backed her maintopsail, and waited for her consort. Her Majesty's ship Caledonia, 120, Captain Manly H. Dixon, with the flag of the Admiral-Superintendent (red) at the mizen, slipped,her moorings inside the eastern arm of the breakwater, about the same time as the Queen ; but, owing to the lightness of the westerly wind, did not leave the sound until half-past seven o'clock. She had her courses and topgallantsails set, and on joining the Queen both ships hoisted their royals. They are gone some distance off the harbour for the purpose of a day's shell exercise, under the inspection of Port-Admiral Sir John West, .C. 8., who accompanies them in the Sylph tender. At nine in the forenoon the Plymouth, dockyard ten der, at her moorings in Hamoaze, had her sails set, and would probably follow the ships with the Admiral-Su perintendent of the Arsenal, Sir J. Louis. PORTSMOUTH, J UNE 23.—This morning Col. Owen, the Deputy-Adjutant-General of the Royal Marines, and staff, proceeded to Fort Cumberland to have a grand field-day with the Royal Marine Artillery, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel D. A. Gibsone, Come mantle-4 of that dietinggielkeel eorpa._ At eleven o'clock the review commenced with - practice from a sea service battery, on which were mounted one 68-pounder, three 32-pounders, one 32-pounder car ronade, and one 24-pounder, from which six rounds were fired at targets placed at a range of 425 yards, the destruction of which was complete at each discharge. Better practice we never witnessed, and when it is considered that nearly all the men upon the field were recruits, the merit is considerably increased. Practice from three 10-inch mortars in the rear of an epaulment followed, from which four rounds were pro jected, the shells each time taking a most accurate direc tion, to the admiration of all present. The officers attached were Lieutenant-Colonel Gibsone, Commandant; Major Castieau, Captain Fraser, and Lieutenant Parke. After this portion of the day's operations, the scene was moved to the immediate proximity of the fort, where practice from an 8-inch howitzor and a 12-pounder medium gun, at ranges of 1,350 yards, and a 24-pounder and a 12-pounder howitz9r, and a 6-pounder light field gun, at ranges of 900 yards seaward respectively, was exhibited. The missiles used in the practice were shell and spherical case (Shrapnel shell), the latter riddling the target flags at nearly every discharge. Practice from a 32-pounder, mounted on the south east bastion of the interior of the fort, with live shell fired to seaward at a target placed at a range of 1,500 yards, concluded the day's operations, the practice from which was most admirable, the direction of the shells being very true. Some idea of the thorough efficiency of this gallant corps may be formed from the fact of the field-battery exercise yesterday on Southsea-common, in the presence of Lord Frederick Fi tzclarence, the Lieutenat-Governor, and a brilliant assemblage, having been mounted, loaded, and discharged within the astonishing space of 30 se conds ! Fur this unparalleled efficiency the service is indebted to Colonel Gibsone. PORTSMOUTH, THURSDAY.—Yesterday a highly inte resting experiment was made in this dockyard, in the presence of Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, Commander-in- Chief, Vice-Admiral Ross, Captain Dacres, of the Avenger, and other distinguished officers, of a new life buoy, invented by Lieut. Irvine, R.N., 1813, which, be sides its properties as an infallible agent in the saving of life at sea, possesses also the uses of a trunk or sea chest, in which may be stowed without the possibility of the approach of wet such matters as bread or other dry provisions, linen, ammunition, Btc. The principal mate rial in this new life-buoy or trunk is cork. Yesterday ono of these trunks was filled with hammocks and heavy iron weights, some of 561 b. each, and thrown into the harbour in presence of the above distinguished officers and numerous scientific gentlemen. The result was, that, although the weight in the interior of the apparatus was treble that of a heavy man, it floated upon the surface of the tide with a buoyant force which would infallibly sup port 25 men as long as they could cling to it, ropes being appended in all directions of it to admit of that advantage in the event of an emergency. There is no inflation used, nor any preparation necessary, other than merely buckling a strap round the mouth of some webbing-cloth inside the chest, which acts as a preventive to the admis sion of water and alike excludes the air_ Lieut. Irvine can fit the seats of steam-boats with his apparatus with little expense, but with certain efficacy in time of need; and considering the recent wrecks and loss of life, so fearfully augmented of late by the staving of boats when they were the only means left of attempting to brave the waves, such an instrument as this must be hailed with great satisfaction by all who have occasion, from necessity or otherwise, to travel upon the waters. The gallant veteran who has invented this new buoy has served his country in the time of need, and it is only with regret that we can allude to the necessity which compels him to thus endeavour to add to his scanty pittance of 6s. per day in the decline of his days, after holding the commission of a Lieutenant in her Majesty's navy 34 years with an untarnished reputation. He was placed by his late Majesty William IV. on board the Superb, 74, Captain Keats, in 1805, with whom he served to the end of the war. He was in the action off St. Domingo ; the expedition to Copenhagen; taking the Spanish troops from Denmark ; English aide-de-camp to the Marquis of Romana; was in the expedition to Walcheren; at the siege of Cadiz; in gun•boats and boats taking several forts; and, besides, had the pleasure of saving the lives of two men by risking his own, in jumping overboard at different times, when in the Hibernia, in the Mediterranean. The Falmouth lighter sailed yesterday, with stores for Plymouth. The Tartarus steam-vessel sailed this morning for Sheerness, with Commander James C. Caffin, of the Scourge, and about 60 of his men, to bring the Fury steam-sloop to this port. PLYMOUTH, JUNE 23.—The barque Pathfinder, Cap• tin Strickland, came in this morning with Indian corn from Alexandria for orders. This vessel was freighted out last winter from England at the then current rate. On her arrival freights had considerably advanced, and her master, Captain James Thompson, was so chagrined at the circumstance, that, in a fit of despondency, he poisoned himself with the contents of the laudanum bottle belonging to the ship's medicine chest. The com mand devolved on her mate, Mr. Strickland; they left Alexandria the 6th of April, and, being short of provi sions, attempted to enter Cadiz, but were repulsed by the Spanish authorities, who refused permission for the barque to receive supplies, on the pretext of her having come from an eastern port. They then put to sea, in tending to make the English Channel; but meeting contrary winds, first purchased a bag of bread for 2/. 1.55. from a passing ship, and when half way across the Bay of Biscay bore up for Oporto. At the entrance of the Douro they received two bags from a British man-of war steamer, at which time there was but a pound and a half of bread left for a crew of eleven persons. On her passage from Oporto, about eight days since, one of the lads was sent aloft to furl the fore royal in a sudden br e eze, which carried the fore topgallant mast and rig ging over the side, and flung the lad on the deck of the ship. His fall was providentially broken by his first pitching on the fore trysail, and he thus came down un injured a height of eighty or ninety feet, the only effect of the accident being a slight scratch on the lip. The Lord Provost of Edinburgh, Adam Black, Dill., is to receive the honour of Knighthood. The Observer of Sunday morning gave the parti culars of the meeting at Dee's Hotel, Birmingham, of the shareholders of the Birmingham and Oxford Railway Com pany, nearly to the extent of one of the Observer folio columns, and which meeting did not commence at Dee's Hotel until after two o'clock in the afternoon of Saturday, and appeared in the Observer published at six o'clock on Sunday morning.

The following address from Mr. Cobden to the electors of Stockport has just been issued : Gentlemen,—Should a dissolution occur before I can have the pleasure of meeting you in person, I beg to be allowed to take this mode of again soliciting the honour of being one of your representatives in Paha.. ment. " I deeply regret that you will be called upon to ex ercise the elective franchise at a time of great manufac turing depression. It is no consolation to generous mind to know that their sufferings areshared by others ; but, unhappily, almost the whole of Europe is mourning over deficient harvests, amidst privations, which for se verity and extent have uo parallel in the present cen tury.jcooirncemdeirneitahlerberflogrhinte,r p t h r ros e p e e x c l t . s s It is possibl e , th at to some of my friends, who re tianffgo r d d i e s li tre b L o m u r a y r c h e a e v n e t brought feelings of doubt and discouragement. Free trade cannot avert a sudden and calamitous visitation of Providence ; it can only alleviate its pressure. But the present crisis has at least this consolation, that it has brought from all quarters proofs of the soundness and beneficence of our principles ; for we have seen the Go vernments of the continent with hardly an exception abolish their multiform regulations of the corn trade at the moment when, if their interference be ever efficacious, it was the most needed ; and we see them now relying upon the energies of emancipated commerce alone for saving their people from the horrors of famine. "It must, however, be acknowledged that we enter upon the new commercial era under unfortunate circum stances. Ido not allude merely to the present scarcity of food, which in all human probability will be of short duration, but also to the possibility of a sudden reaction in the opposite direction, which may protract for a time the transition from the restrictive system to the more equable state of freedom. The exorbitant prices will cause, as in former times in England, a greatly increased production of corn. At the same time the agriculture of the whole civilised world is under the stimulus of famine prices, and should we be blessed with a succes. sion of good harvests, we may anticipate a glut of corn, not as the result of free trade, but of the present scar city. A similar process, to be followed possibly with like results, is going on with another important interest. The present enormous cost of freights, by which not a few of the shipowners of the Mediterranean will clear the value of their vessels in this year, is everywhere causing large investments of capital in ship-building. Judging from former experience, it is not therefore im probable that these two interests, which have been the least favourable to free trade, may be ere long simulta neously exposed to the effects of a reaction from their present excitement. If there be any force in these views, they furnish the strongest motives to the friends of free trade for sending to the next Parliament, during the existence of which the process I have described will in all probability be passed through, representatives of tried convictions, who will guard with firmness the great mea sures of last year from the dangers to which they may be exposed in their transition state. Should you honour me with your confidence, I shall hope to be found with renewed health at my post, prepared to show that the present state of trade is no fair experiment of our prin ciples, and that the consequent reaction will be only an exception to the ordinary operation of free trade, which, when fairly tested by time, will, I fervently believe, pro mote the prosperity and harmony of the whole com munity; and I shall return to England, confirmed in my opinion, by the sympathy expressed for our principles by the best and wisest men in other countries, that if we continue with firmness to offer to the world a good example, it will be eventually followed by all other civilised nations. " Gentlemen ' if at this distance I do not attempt to enter upon the discussion of other matters, it is not be cause I am insensible of the importance of the questions which must, at the earliest possible moment, engage the attention of the Legislature, foremost amongst which is the state of Ireland. I will only add that in every ques tion brought before Parliament, I shall, to the best of my humble ability, act upon the principle of doing equal justice to my fellow-countrymen in every part of the United Kingdom. "I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, " With sentiments of respect and gratitude, " Your faithful servant, " RICHARD COBDEN. " Venice, 15th June, 1847." THE NEW FOREST. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—May I hope that you will raise your potent voice to deprecate the act of Vandalism proposed by a correspondent in this day's paper with regard to the New Forest? Should such utilitarian principles gain ground amongst this money-loving generation, wo to all the loveliest spots in England! The trees of Ken sington and Kew Gardens must be cut down for fire wood, and Blenheim and Strathfieldsaye—those monu ments of a nation's gratitude—will be found to occupy an undue portion of land, which might be turned to a more profitable account, just as the demagogues of the French revolution were for turning the Tuileries into a kitchen-garden. It is strange that in an age wle . re there exists so proper a spirit for preserving the relics of bygone times, provided such relics be architectural, that the sublimer works of God should be so little cared for that men look with apathy on their desecration. Where is this thirst for destruction to end, and what will be the consequence? Why, that all those who can afford it will be driven to seek for rural scenery on the continent, and to spend their money away from England. People rail at Lord Brougham for taking up his summer quarters in France, but in a few years many classes below Lord Brougham will do the same, simply from the impossibility of finding green lanes and trees unenclosed. What would the Chamber of Deputies think of a project to destroy the forests of Fontainebleau or Compaigne ? And should England, who can boast but of one forest of the size and beauty of those of her neighbour, not only tamely submit to, but aid and abet its destruction ? Depend upon it, Sir, he who could propose such a measure has neither an eye for the picturesque nor a heart to respect the historical traditionc and associations of his country, and, worse still, no fellow- feeling for the pent-up citizens of London, who can run down and enjoy a few days in Hampshire, though neither time nor fortune might allow them to luxuriate in the shades of St. Germain or Ville d'Avray. Fortunately, the New Forest belongs to the Crown, and we may hope that her Majesty's good taste will put down all attempts at carrying your correspondent's scheme into effect, but we could wish to enlist your aid and sympathy in a cause that must interest not only all Englishmen, but all who inhabit this country. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, A RESIDENT FOREIGNER. June 23. TAXATION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—I am sorry to see that the electors are troubling themselves about Popery, instead of taxation. If we do not attend to the latter, we need not look for prosperity. Nothing can be more vicious than our system of taxa tion. That the improvement of the industrious part of the community can only be effected by increasing the direct and lessening the indirect taxation, cannot be disputed. Much might be done by a clear headed and honest Chancellor of the Exchequer. For instance, if Ireland paid the income-tax—and why she does not no decent reason can be given—England might be released from the window-tax, and that most heavy burden on working men's houses and impediment to drainage in towns, the Excise duty on tricks. Then, if we did not encourage distillation from grain, of which we have an insufficiency for food, the Exchequer would benefit between nine and ten millions per annum, which would admit of a considerable reduction in the taxes on tea, sugar, &c. Many more absurdities might be adduced in our fiscal regulations, but I don't wish to trespass too much on the space in your valuable paper.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, AN ELECTOR. On Tuesday last the directors of the Shropshire Union Canal and Railway Company gave an elegant dinner at the Clarendon, to the Right Bon. the Earl of Powis, IC.G., the chairman of tire company, and at the same time preferred a unanimous request that his Lord ship would sit for his portrait, with a view to its being placed in the board-room of the company, a request to which the Noble Earl kindly assented. Mr. J. P. West head, of Lea Castle, presided. Mr. George Holyoake occupied the vice chair; and Lord Clive, M.P. the Hon. Colonel Anson, M.P., Sir F. H. Goodricke, W. 11. Gre gory, Esq., M.P.

GREAT ENTERTAINMENT OF THE SADDLERS' COM PANY, AT THEIR HALL, IN CIIEAPSIDE, TO MAJOR GENERAL SIR HARRY SMITH, BART., THE HERO OP ALIWAL.—The above company gave an elegant dinner yesterday to this gallant officer. The Master, B. B. Williams, Esq., was supported by the Right Hon. Lord Rossmore, Sir William Verner, Bart., Captains Dalzell and Morris, RN., Colonel Elrington, of the Scots Fusi lier Guards, Captains Ponsonby, Williams, and Smith. David Salomons, Esq., and the Aides-de Camp of Sir H. Smith. The usual loyal toasts in appropriate speeches were given, and the Master then proposed, in a very happy and interesting manner, the health of their dis tinguished guest, Sir Harry Smith, and alluded in strong terms to his eminent career, and more particularly to his recent brilliant achievements on the banks c the Sutlej, which had been so conducive to the safety of our Indian empire, and which merited, in an especial de gree, the gratitude and consideration of every one, and more particularly those connected with that part of the British empire. The health of the gallant officer emeranwnaaer e tutioeonn rhonour o rsf hi l ys of the London. in I with, drank with the highest enthusiasm. Sir H. Smith re. turned thanks, and expressed in a very feeling the gratification i othneoSaddlers, n tadidi e daeltsce especially seen:cyy f c, he in referred r:m oenhhat hdi his hehie return i to uu country, after so long an absence, such a co r di a l we l come everywhere,itallu,s, obligation he felt under to that craft, inasmuch as in his early career in life he had been frequently employed in conveying important dispatches in the Peninsula from one part of the army to the other, and safety and dis patch had been m a t er i a lly a ided by the " good saddle that had carried him safe over." He trusted that the rights of the city of London would be held inviolate, and that while the company of Saddlers adhered to their anci ent a trust is in God," an d u p adhered as th utiful motto, ey had always " Our done, their integrity a nd hi g h position, they would, as in the d bea for ever•" flourish• w ords of one of the Masters' toasts, " continue and The festivities of the evening were enlivened by some excelle n t sin g in g , and after Sir Harry Smith had proposed the health of the Worshipful Master, in a highly complimentary speech, and which was received with acclamation, concluded with great éclat at a late hour.

NEWCASTLE RACES AND THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. —Anxious to communicate the earliest intelligence of the above races, we made arrangements at Newcastle for daily messages per electric telegraph to Rugby, where envelopes, properly addressed, were provided for their transmission by the first up-train. On Tuesday the results of the Produce, Northern Derby, and Tyro Stakes, were forwarded without delay, and of course, were received at Rugby, but from some cause that re mains to be explained, they have never reached us. The news, however, was known in town early the same evening, and the flats were floundered as usual. On Wednesday the authorities were graciously pleased to forward our message, and the principal races appeared in our paper of yesterday; the result of the Northumberland Plate, however, was known in London long before our parcel arrived, and the flats were again robbed to some extent. This is not the first time we, or rather the public, have suffered from the mis management of the electric telegraph on this line, and we trust our present notice of it will lead to some . _ _ inquiry.

HYAM, Wholesale and Retail Tailoring and Outfitting Es tablishment, Pantechnetheca, 36, Gracecharch-street, London. No business transacted on Saturdays until the evening. .....from 10d. MOne A half the R world are desola l tely single, and G the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em latter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comnrosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity , and ' broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Bligkted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life," pub. in 2 vols. Is. each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6 d. each). Let no imaginatively refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor, be hindered by misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but for the closet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on the above subjects, by u .qualified authors, which alone or together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each, by post is. 6d.) called " Mat to Eat, Drink, and Avoid,' and " How to be Happy." They are not merely pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob servance of the maxims he would inculcate—t 3 do unto others as he would be done unto—to live alter nature's laws—and to keep always on the "sunny side of the way."
