No business transacted on Saturdays until the everting. ...from 10d M A One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing 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. Blighted 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. 6d. 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 I together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each, by post is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and Avoid," and " How to be Happy."

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 Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than I ever was before the baldness appeared. "Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an I Is. 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 terfiune it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above facts.-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and - irevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the nest aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing )dour 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 vary bad, repeat it every quarter of an our. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces air on children's heads in a few appplications. 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.—See pamphlet of testimonials.

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-Admitill's fig (white) at the main, cleared her mooring inside the western arm of tl!e 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, K.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- per r i o n n tende issmo n u t T o ß f , th j e uriz Ars 2 e 3 n .— al, T S h ir is 3 m . o L rn ou in i: Deputy-Adjutant-General of the Royal e. Mar i nes,O we , and t h e 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, Com mandant of that distinguished corps. 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 howitzer and a 12-pounder medium gun, at ranges of 1,350 yards, and a 24-pounder and a 12-pounder howitzer, 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 Fitzclarence, the Lieutenat-Governor, and a brilliant assemblage, having been mounted, loaded, and discharged within the astonishing space of 30 se conds 1 For 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, RN., 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, &e. The principal mate rial in this new life-buoy or trunk is cork. Yesterday one 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 Copenhag en ; 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. tan 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 refu sed perm i ss ion for the barque to receive supplies, on the pretest 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 21. 15s. 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 breeze, 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, Esq., 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 Corn 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.

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. PROCLAMATION Or OUTLAWRY. —Yesterday, at the Court of the Sheriff of Middlesex, Hemp, the bailiff, called upon the following to surrender their persons into the custody of the Sheriffs of Middlesex, or to stand severally outlawed :—Andrew Henry Lynch, Esq., at the suit of William Witham ; Arthur Hogue, at the suit of Orlando Edmunds, a registered public officer ; John Hunter, at the suit of Charles Lewis ; Samuel George Beamish, at the suit of William Sylvester Wilson ; George Fitch, at the suit of Chamberlain Birch ; Henry Welchman, at the suit of John Cooke Haddan ; Phillip Bennet Lucas, at the suit of William Oliver Jackson ; Charles A.

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 Parlia• bent. " I deeply regret that you will be called upon to ex ercise the elective franchise at a time of great manuac turing depression. It is no consolation to generous mind to know that their sufferings are shared by others r but, unhappily, almost the whole of Europe is mourning over deficient harvests, amidst privations, which for se verity and extent have no parallel in the present cen- . tury. It is possible, that to some of my friends, who re joiced in the brighter prospects afforded by our recent commercial reforms, the existing distre,ss may have brought feelings of doubt and discourageksent. 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, tient it has brought from all graters proofs of the soundner,l and ' beneficence of our principles ; for we hate seen the- Go- lernments of the continent with hau:iy an except ion abolish their multiform regulations of the corn trade ctt the moment when, if their Litt rf( recce be ever cfileacieu.s, • it was the most needed ; and we see them now relying' _ upon the energies of emancipated commerce alone tur 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 sh ort duration, but also to the possibility of a sudden reaction in the opposite direction, which may protract for a Maas the transition from the restrictive system to the mOirli equable state of freedom. The exorbitant prices wilt,[ 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 torn, ~ not as the result of free trade, but of the present se at city. A similar process, to be followed possibly with like results, is going on with another important interest; ‘ 3 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 tothe next Parliament, during the existence of which the process I hare 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 . Stratbfieldsaye--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 where 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 Compiegne ? 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 sbet 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 traditions 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 t as t e w ill 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 a ll Englishmen, but all who inhabit this country. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, June 23. A RESIDENT FOREIGNER. TAXATION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—I am sorry to see that the electors are troubling I 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 is towns, the Excise duty on bricks. 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, A/C ELECTOR. On Tuesday last the directors of the Shropshire Union Canal and Railway Company gave an elegant dinner at the Clarendon, to the Right Hon. the Earl of Powis, K.G., the chairman of the 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.

The usual loyal toasts in appropriate speeches were gives, and the Master then proposed, in a very happy and interesting manner, the health of their die. 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 cf 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 tfheaetlipnagrtmoafntnhere British empire. The health of the gallant officer was?, drank with the highest enthusiasm. Sir H.
