BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Han, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Mm hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is Particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It Is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are I rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated with ,ut incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of incoasiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physic 11 infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

AN AFFECTING CASE.—On Monday, at the 'Preston Town-hall, an elderly man, named James Parker, was charged before the borough magist ra t es w ith stealing a pair of shoes from the shop-door of Mr. Gardner, Friar gate, on Saturday night. During the investigation it transpired that the prisoner's wife is lying at the point of death, to which state she has been brought by abso lute want ; that it was want of food that incited the prisoner to commit the theft; and that not a particle of food' was to be found in the house when he was appre hended. In answer to the bench, Parker said he had never received parish relief, and had never applied for any. Mr. Ainsworth, one of the magistrates, after ex pressing his sorrow that Parker, who had always hitherto been an honest and industrious man, should place him self in hi s present position, sentenced him to seven days' imprisonment in the hou se o f correc ti on . Th e pr i soner ' s son was i n court, and on hearing the decision of the bench, he f e ll down in a fit, with a cry of agony, and in that condition was carried out of the town-hall.

For the Cambridgeshire Stakes El Hakim was firm, more than 8 to 1 being unobtainable about him. Alcestiisium was supported at 11 to 1 freely, and Prioress was in demand at 10C1 to 7. That price was currently offered against Cyrene. Ellington was not in so good odour as he was yesterday, 100 to 3 being currently offered against him. Several outsiders were backed, but only to small BUMP, not sufficient to justify their being quoted. The settling upon the Cesarewitch Stakes, with the exception of a few backers of horses who are missing, has gone off satisfactorily.

IMPORTANT CAUTION against the fearful dangers of spurious ii nitations :—The Vice-Chancel lor , Sir William Page Wood,, granted an Injunction on the 10th March, 1854, against Alfred Hooper Novi; for imitating "Du Parry's Revalenta Aralgca Food.'' • The hall was densely crowded, and on the mem bers making their appearance they were greeted with loud and prolonged cheering. Mr. Rowse, solicitor, presided. Mr. R. P. COLLIER on rising was received with applause. He explained his oft repeated views as to the desirability and advantage of members of Parliament yearly meeting their constituents and explaining their votes—a course which wa3 bt com ing popular. He was happy to say that both he and lts colleague frequently sat on the same benches, and as frequently voted on the sum) side but of course there were times when their views differed, but he believed that in the main their opinions were in unison. He was perf , ctly well aware that at the present time the attention of those who comprised the meeting—in fact, the whole country—was almost wholly absorbed i❑ Indian affairs ; but at the same time he reminded them that their attention ought not to be wholly abstracted from what occurred at home, for it:woul.l ba a double grievance and a double calamity if those affairs were allowed to interfere so greatly with their home affairs. He should make no further apology, therefore, for adverting to the affairs of the past session, but at once proceed to them. He then detailed seriatim the measures which had been adopted, and commented thereon ; after which he referred to the measure far the emancipation of the' Jews, which was passed in the House of Commons and rejected by the House of Lords—a measure respecting "which the Liberal of Plymouth were nearly unanimous on, and it was a rag of religious intolerance which ought to ba swept away. (Ap plause.) He adverted briefly to Parliament.rry reform, and, while they were about that, they might as well reform their Indian administration —(hear)—but he believed this would de ,end on the people, and if the people desired it the Govern ment would be compelled to follow their voice, and if the people desired it it would be done. (" Yes, yes !") With regard to the Indian affairs he did not pretend to have access to any peculiar infor mation which others did not po-sess, and were it not for his standing in the position of their repre sentative he shouldnot occupy their time by speak ing on the subject. The question of India was one which must be brought before the House of Com • mous, and be dealt with in the shape of legislation, therefore constituents had a right to inquire of their representative what course he intended to pursue. (" Hear," and applause.) This great cala , mity, the details of which were so horrible and heartrending, might tend to beneficial results ; he believed, in fact, it had already led to a highly beneficial result—that of awakening the attention of the people of England, and at last seriously directing their attention to Indian affairs. The conscience of the country had been raised to the awful importance and responsibility which at tended the government and direction of about 200,000,000 of human beings. When addressing a . large assembly he liked to speak the truth, whatever might be the consequences, and he stated without hesitation that the English people were to blame in not looking after and at tending properly to their Indian affairs. England had acquired a large empire by what might ibe termed haphazard. It had been acquired by no principles ; they did not know bow they got it ; they had got it by a series of events which the most daring romance-writer would hesitate to make the groundwork of a novel—so strange a fiction was it. It had been obtained haphazard and been governed haphazard; it had been used as a digging for the ex traction of so much gold ; it had been to make for tunes, and there had been an immense amount of jobbery and corruption. The Goiternmeut had not been so bad twit might have been, or yet so good as it might be. It bad not been exactly wicked, but it hadbeen a carelep, self-seeking, low, unprincipled huckstering government. Still the w,rst form of European government was much better than the best native rule. After referring to the state in which India was formerly governed by the native princes, and the cruel and bloody wars so frequently waged against themselves with so much fury, he said that, in the first place, it was desirable to as certain what was the nature of the revolt ; second, what were the sauses of it ; thiro, on what prin ciples ought it to be dealt with ; and, fourth, how were they to prevent its recurrence and maintain permanently the Indian empire I These were the questions which presented themselves ; and he should make a few observations on them. What was the revolt? It was merely a military mutiny, and not a popular insurrection. They must distin guish between the two. The truth could not be con cealed, for if it had been a popular insurrection, a rising of the whole natives of India in a mass against the Government, we could no longer have main tained our Indian empire, and India would have had to be ab indened, and we should not again have set foot on its shores. It was essentially a military mutiny. The mercantile classes in India, such as the bankers, the merchant., the shopkeepers and • traders had, fortunately for us, nothing to do with , it. Some of the native population—and to their honour be it said—sheltered fugitives from the un heard of barbarities which were being perpetrated by the Sepoys, and this they did at great risk. If the people had been against them they could not have held India ; but, on the other hand, if the whole of the people had been with us, the mutiny would have been almost impossible. The muti neers were not to be confounded with insurgents in a popular cause fighting for liberty or -under a ban ner. If they gained the victory the - Mahomedane and Hindoos would cut their own throat.. All the European States had expre'sed their indignation at the unheard-of barbarities, and all continental newspapers—with one or two villainous exceptons —had sympathised with England. With respect to the second question or inquiry—" What was the cause of this mutiny 7" Now, here he confessed himself in a great degree at fault, as full informa tion on this subject was not possessed ; but it was somewhat strange that a . mutiny of this sort, so long in preparation—for so it appeared it was— should have been so exceedingly well organised as to escape the notice and observation of the Indian Government; and he could not but think there was shortsightedness somewhere, and that there was a little routine and red tape. The Government bad been warned by Sir C. Napier, but had not attended to the warning. It had been said that the indiscreet zeal of the missionaries in propagating the Gospel had been the cause of the mutius. This he entirely discredited, and did not believe there was any foundation in it. They could not disguise from themselves that the Christian faith had made but small progress in India, for he had been informed that all the converts in Bengal amounted to 10,000, and in Madras 40,000. Now, the outbreak had taken place in Bengal, and not in Madras where the greatest number of converts were made, and that did not look as if the mission aries had had to do with it. There was this consi deration,—the Government had confined the efforts of the missionaries, and had prohib.ted them from interfering witn the Sepoys, and bad themselves abstained as much as possible from interfering with their religion, although the suttee had been abolished and other barbarous rites and ceremonies of a similar nature. In ab staining from interfering with the religion of the Sepoys, they had carried their abstaining principles so far as to be subversive to military discipline. He then quoted instances of the ridiculous attention and subserviency paid to the high cute Sepoys, and proved his argument that it was subversive of mili tary discipline. He understood that the average number of Europeans in the presidencies were in Bengal lin 24 • in Madras, 1 in 16 ; an d in Bom bay, lin 9. Now, he could not help thinking this disproportion was too great. Although Delhi had been fortified, and extretnecare taken in supply ing it with stores, &c., still there was the grievous oversight that there were no Europeans to take care of it. The third question was, " How was this re volt to be dealt with?" On this point there could be no serious difference of opinion, for he believed every Englishman whom he might address would agree that England must put forth her whole strength and energy for the purpose of putting it down with a high hand. It was absolutely necessary to restore the prestige which we have lost, and show nations that we are not to be insulted and offended with impunity and without returning a severe and just punishment. In fighting for our Indian em pire we were, in fact, fighting for our own empire, for there were those on the continent envious of England's greatness who were found to say that her sun was declining, and if we failed to put down this mutiny would say that we bad lost our native energy ; that our country was on the wane ; there fore, let them fight abroad, or else they might have to fight at home.. It was with satisfaction that they saw their soldiers had not deteriorated. The men who were fighting under Havelock were as valiant as those who fought under Wellington: The Eng ' lish troops had not only beaten the Indian., but had beaten those very Sepoys Nyhorn they had them , .-- selves trained and instruc'ed in I arms. (A l pp ause. If in the absence of re i n f orcements they had been enabled to hold their own i t might be confidently hoped that when the reinforcements arrived we ' should bo speedily victorious. There w,arld. 13. ' an army as great or greater, than that in the Crimea, and led by an efficient commander —Sir Colin Campbell. (Applause.) He was a man who did not owe his position to high birth, but lie ha I earned his rank by his achievements and behaviour in numberless battles ; but he was afraid ht would b 3 hampered wish bands of red tape. However, if he was, he must b r y e e a n k ge te ce m , . He was not the one to brew he the cry of but maters could not be minced. The ringleaders . must suffer death, and after the mutiny had been put down it was then the time to talk of clemency, and not at present. Nothing would give hiin greater pleasure than to see a gang of the high caste Brahmins breaking stones on the roads. (" Hear, hear," and applause.) Transpottation would he the punishment of all excepting the ringleaders, who must suffer death. The higher the ciste the greater had been the atrocities. The fourth questiln was the most important of all. That was, " How were they to prevent a recurrence, and permanently secure their Indian empire ?" This was a question which must without delay occupy the attention of Perham nt and the country. It was necessary the pe iple of England should speak their minds, and whateier was required to he done aronld by the voice of public opinion be carried int i eff-ct. Pub lic opinion was as necessary to ventilate the Go vernment department as the air which they breathe was necessary to ventilate a room. Indian discus sions were never attended by the members of the House ; but this was because the debates on t le subject were never read ; and--it the people had read them more interest would have been felt by the in-mberP. It was nominally ruled by the'"East In dia Co•npany, but really by the Board of Control, and it did s-em to him that under this system there was a sort of 'jtrzgled hocus-pocus exist ing, and no one kn-w who was regpontrble for what. All governing powers should b i vested in a Prime Minister, who alone should be as r-spousible .for the government of India as he was of this coun try. In organizing a future Indian army great care should be taken that the European element was l:trger in proportion than hitherto. A native army must be organized—as the army could not be entirely an European one—and it must be re organized on different principles. Hitherto high caste Brahmins had. been selected, and these were the men who were at the bottom of the mischief. Civil reforms must also be made, and a new system of magisterial jurisdiction, so as to secure to every man as far as possible his rights and privileges. (Applause.) Mr. WHITE, in the course of his address, said that until he entered Parliament he had no idea of the extent to which the time and physic it endurance of the members were taxed. He give a brief sketch of the personnel of the house, remarked that the present speaker had failed to fulfil the expecta tions of those who assisted to place him in the chair, and said that, notwithstanding the opinion gener ally entertained that the past session had been prolific of business, he thought more might well have been done. With respect to the Indian mutiny, he said he believed we had given good cause for whit did not take place—a revolt of the people, and had given no cause for what did take place—a rebellion of the military. It was, however a gross popular delusion to attribute the Indian disasters to the East India Company, which bad long ceased to possess any practical power ; it was the Board of Control that ruled India, and which had offered the greatest obstructions to the good government of that portion of the empire. A resolution of continued confidence in Messrs. Collier and White having been agreed to by the meeting, the proceedings terminated. Scriven. MILITIA. HEALTH OF LONDON I)UR NG THE WEEK.

Some of the offic,-rs have volunteered .r service in India. The Highland Borderers, or Stirliuv,sl4,eßeli ment, has offer,d for fo' eign service, bid the offer hiS ben declined by the War-...ffice. The regiment will be at once embo ied and c died oat for active duty at home. The total number of deaths re.iistered in Lon don, which in the previous week was 993, was_ in the week that ended ott Saturday, Oct. 17, 1,003, of which 507 wet e deaths of males, 496 of females. [n the ten years 1847 57 the aver a ge number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,019 ; but as the deaths of last week occurred in an increased population, the averaee, to admit of comparison, should be raised in prtpertion to the increase, in which cage it will become 1,118. It is to be inferred that the metropolitan population now enjoy good heilth, for the 6geres show that more than a hundred persons survived last week, whose names would hive been placed on the regis ters if the average rate of mortality had prevailed. The births were very numerous last week, and exceeded the deaths by 782. The deaths from diarrhoea were 39, being nearly the same as in the previous week. Of that number 25 occurred to children under two years of age. Seat latina has increased considerably ; it was fatal in 52 and 49 cases in the last two weeks. Threw children died within nine days of scarlatina maligna in a house in Wilderness-row, Clerkenwell ; in re ference to which cases the medical attendant ad verts to the bad condition of the house and its neighbourhood, and to the fact that one of the dead b.idies was retained for seven days among the living. Four children died of the same disease in the south sub-di-trict of Chelsea ; two of these in a family in Beaufort-terrace West. Two deaths occur, ed from small-pox in Wellesley-street, So mers-town; iu one of the cases a woman of - 27 years was the sufferers. Four deaths from cholera and choleraic diarrlicea were registered last week. In Bethnal-green, one girl, aged 4t, years, and one boy, aged 6 years, died at 17, Cranlirook-street, of choleraic diarrhoea ; and one girl, aged 2, died of cholera infantum at 2, Sweet Apple-square, on the 10th October. The son of a brass-finisher, aged 14, died of " Asiatic cho lera" at 2, Peter-street, Bromley, after an illness of 20 hours. He worked in a factory on the banks of the Thames. "He was perfectly well," Dr. Bain reports, "on Thursday Night, his father having taken him to a tailor's for a new coat ; at 5 o'clock on Friday morning he was seized with diarrhoea, vomiting, great prostration, darkness of the surface, thirst, loss of voice." At 1 o'clock on Saturday morning the poor boy died. Seven deaths by cho. lera have also been registered in the West Ham district, which adjoins London, but is not within the jurisdiction ot the Metropolitan Ac}. Oases of diarrhoea and ot cholera occur every year in L , lndoti ; but the annexed case, whi c h was published in a former table, appeared to bear an epidemic character : I"St. Olave, St. John—At Horselydown, on board the Lu.cken, on September 22, a seaman, aged 27 yearA, 'cholera Asi , ,tioa (19 hours).' Mr: Platt, the ti r , o g r is s t e r y r d , ow say , s--.' T..e ship Lutcken arrived at 21st inst., from St. H .T , o ,r h b r::s t , ou the alt,rnoon of the g (Hanover) ; she had touched at Gluckstadt, and stopped there 26 hours, at which place cholera raged lately, and carried of 5 per cent, of the inhabitants. ' • Deceased had not been ashore at Horselydown.'" An immense commerce is carried on bet ween Eng la►nd and Hamburg on the Elbe in vesst.l4 which are in a very unsatisfactory sanitary condition, the berths of the steamers conveying passengers being at times saturated by the steam of water-closets. The condition of the ordinary vessels maybe easily imagined. To avoid the delays of quarantine, all steamers should undergo sanitary inspection; and the sailing vessels in the river should be thoroughly cleansed. They should get pure water, and they would not then form a bridge over which epidemics c.in march from Hamburg to London. Dr. R. D. Thomson has repeated his analysis of the water supplied by the Southwark Company. On October 14th a gallon of it contained only 17.6 grs. of extraneous matter. On Octo'ier 15th, the total impurity in the pump-well of Abbey-row, West Ham, amounted to 56-16 grs. in a gallon, comprising 4.40 grs. of organic matter. All the London waters should be analpsed weekly under present circumstances, for the protection of the public. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean barometrical reading in .he week was 29.915 in.; on two days the mean reading was above 30in. The mean temperature of the week was 55.2 deg., which is 4.9 deg. above the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily temperature was above the average through out the week. The highest reading of the thermo meter in the shade occurred on Monday, and was 67.7 deg. ; the lowest was 42.3 deg , and occurred on Wednesday. The range of the week was there fore 25.4 deg. The mean due point temperature was 53.3 ; and the difference between this and the mean temperature of the air was only 1.9 deg. The amount of rain was. 0.19 iu., all of which fell on Sunday the 11th.

Yeserday a general court-martial assembled at Chatham garrison, by order of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, for the trial of Lieut. G. W. V. Yule, Royal Engineers, on a number of charges preferred against him by the authorities at the Horse Guards. The court was composed of the following members :—Col. C. Elmhirat, command ing the 3d battalion at Chatham garrison, presi dent ; Lieut.-Colonels G. Elliott, Royal Marines ; A. P. G. Ross, Royal Engineers,; and J. H. Gas coigne, Royal arines ; Majors D. G. A. Darrock, 31 battalion ; and A. Wombwell, 2d battalion ; Captains J. V. O'Donnell, 27th Enniskillins ; E. Grantham, 98th Regiment ; J. W. A. Kennedy, Royal Marines ' • G. W. W. Carpe n t er , 7th Fusi liers; J. Boys, 86th Regiment ; and W. Willshire, 87th Royal Irish Fusiliers; Lients. C. E. Luard, Royal E. gineers ; R. T. Sweeny, 83d Rego. - end C. R. - Rieke , t 4, 32d R-gt. The Deputy ant Adjutaut-Genertl, Lieut.-Colonel J. W. Rey nolds, officiated as Deputy Judge-Advocate. The prin-ipal charges on which the prisoner was arraigned were—first, absenting himself from early m Tiling parade on the mornin g s of the 31st of Aug., and the Ist, 2d, 3d, and 4th of Sept., al thqugh ordered by Major B. P. N. H. Nugent, the adjw ant, to be on p trade at six o'clock. Second, absenting himself on several occasions from the officers' hall of s'udy, Brompton, and when desired t o write a letter explaining his reasons for so doing, allowing the official letter to remain unanswered for a period of 23 hours. Third, absenting himself from a re2imental court martial ordered to as semble at Brompton barracks on the 6th of Sept. Fourth, assigning unsatisfactory reasons in a letter he wrote to Major Nugent, explaining his absence from the court-martial. Fifth, for scandalous con duct, unbecoming the character of an officer and gentlemen, in havingstated that he was absent from his quarters all day on the sth Sept., and that he did not therefore see Major Negent's letter, and also in further falsely stating that he left his room at one p.m on the 9th Sept. and did not return until 5 o'c!ock in the afternoon, when he was not absent from his room that day until 6 o'clock in the after noon. The prisoner pleaded not guilty to the whole of the charges. The only evidence taken yesterday was that of Major Nugent, whose examination occupied the entire day until the Court rose. The witness stated that, although he had ordered the prisoner to at tend early parade, he had neglected doing so on several occasions mentioned in the charge 4, and had forwarded trifling and unsatisfactory excuses for his absence. He also proved the prisoner's absence from the hallof study from 8 till 8.45 on several occasions, and likewise his absenting himself from the regimen tal court-martial, of which he was a member, al leging as an excuse that he had private bu iness to transact in the town. The prisoner cross-examined the witness with the view of showing that his absence on the oec is'ons referred to resulted from his being unacquainted with the general orders. At 4 o'clock the Court adjourned until this morning, when the trial, which is expected to occupy several days, will be resumed. Yesterday au order was received ky Col. W. H. Eden, Commandant at Chatham garrison, directing the whole of the available non-commiss.oned offi cers and men of the 94th and 98th depots to be medically inspected this day, at Fort Pitt, by Dr J. R. Taylor, C. 8., the principal medical officer, in order that those men who are not of c Aida con stitutions may not be allowed to embarked for India. The strength of the depot companies of the 94th and 98th Regiments is 300 men of all ranks, nearly the whole of whom are fit for service in India. 140 recruits arrived at the Provisional Battalions, Chatham, yesterday afternoon, chiefly from Lon don and the northern districts, for the purpose of joining the Indian corps at that garrison. 80 more recruits are expected this day to join the various depots. The number of reel tuts arriving at Chat ham weekly averages nearly 300. Mr. C. S. Leely, chief engineer, R.N., has been •appointed to the Scylla, 16, at Sheerness. The Diadem, 32, screw; Captain M-orsom, left Portsmouth Harbour yesterdiy morning at ten o'clock, having on board many scientifio officers belonging to both services, who were interested as to the practical results of the trial. Having steamed as far as the Nab Light yes el to warm her engines, and to get everything in perfect condition, she com menced her first experimental trial with the tide at the measured mile at Stokes Bay, and the results are as follows : With the tide (first mile) 4 min. 35 sees A ga inst the tide (second mile) 6 m • ' In. 0 secs, Which gave her the average of 11 knots an hour In her second trial— With the tide ••• ..• 4 min. 27 secs Against the tide ... force t... the . 6 min. 11 secs. which gave her less advantiageTwo under turns were. taken with and antide, but with no better r esu lt s, the me a a t s n o t fti le whole only i giving th is powerful frg as the Shannon), with a 's e t e(ahin e .e same tonna workin. up to nearly 3,000-horse power, the results of Ili knots an hour.
