BY SAMUEL LAWERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. 'I he 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 Man 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 entitlett. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated with out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-Indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness rnay be removed, and how the evil and its consequences 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.

We have witnessed ,the performance of many gifted and eminent Prima Donnas of Italian opera in this part, but never, never have we seen the ide con ception of the young Norirm, the bride of a day, the dearly won and gladly got rid of sposa of the hap less Don Pasquale more admirably personated than on last evening, by this fascinating artiste. Her opening solo in the first act, "So auch Io," was sweetly sung, but as we thought somewhat care le•sly. But in the second act her ac.iog and sing ing wi-re exquisite. She made the most of her delightful little voice, but words can scarcely do justice to the playful arceness,aud irresistible tra casserie of her acting in the court-hip scene with the old Don. Her affected timi lity and simulated coy ness contrasting with her side whispers to her lover Ernesto, and her wicked glances of intelligence towards the arch-rogue Malatesta, were spler did bits of acting. Tie act. wherein Don Pasquale is so cruelly persecuted by the whims of bis•suppose I wife and the scene of the filial ,denouement were fraught with rich amus-ment. La Piccol m 4ri sang her selo parts in this opera with all her usual • wi-et ness and expression. Signor Bel;e'ti, asDoctor Male testa, evinced his well known tact and v reel ability.

'Tie not her peerless voice alone Can fling such spells around, Although there breathes in every tone The soul of sweetest sound ; 'Tis not the beaming of those eyes, So full of lustrous light, That nearer than her native skies There's nothing half to bright ; 'Tie not than. o'er her sweet young face Such joyous radiance plays, Or that her form such matchless grace In every act displays ; 'Tis not the magic of her smile, So an.less, arch, and bright, Soft, sunny, real, free from guile, And dimpling with delight ; What is this wondrous power of her's? Whore doth the secret dwell, That can from countless worshippers Such homage deep compel? A thousand charms of earth combined Could ne'er our hearts enthral, Without the magic of the mind, Genius ; the pearl of all. Artless—with so much skill of art— Each word, and look, and move, Spring from a deep inspired heart — We see, heir, worship, love. Dublin, 15th October, 1857.

Au important paper has just been read to the Academy of Sciences on a mission sent to India and Upper Asia in 1854 by - the King of Pritayia and the East TudiaCompauy. The inembors of the tais6ion consisted of three br"thers, MM. Herrmann, Adolf:thug, and RobartSchl.gentwo,t, two of whom. MM. Herrmann and norfort, rev ~rued in. Tune last ; the third, M. Adolphus, is f.tid among th Hima laya m,untiius, and is expected soon tr return, via the Purrjat, and Bonalny. During the winter of 1854-55, these entetpi ising travellers visited the region lying between Bombay an I Madras : in tile follow: n gsu en tner M. Herrmann explored theeastern parts of the Himala)a, the Sikkim, Bhootan, and Kossia mountains, where he measured the altitud s of several p,aks. The hii, hest of all the summits known throughout the world appears, by his ina sureitnents, to be the Gatioorishanka, situated in he eastern portion of Nepaill—the &taw announced as such by Colonel Waugh, but called by him Mount Everest; bee use he had been unable to ascertain its real name in the plains of Hsniost air, vh-re lie effeced his rneaauremen . This peak is somewhat more than 29,000 English feet in beigl,f, aid bears another name . in Tilibet, where it is sailed Ching° pamari. The other two brothers, MM. Ajlolp'.us and Robert, p -netrated by different roads into the con tralpari sof the Himalaya,Kumaon,andOrrwahl; they theta visited Thibet in -disguise, eutn ed. the great commeraial station of Gamic", explered the environs of L ike Mausarowr, and that remarkable crest which separates :the waters of the laths fro m those ofticte Dshotig, often erroneously c died the Burrampo-ter. They ascended the Ibi-Gamine, 22,260 feet in height. that being am altt taith never betore att tined in any part of the world. After having been separated from each other fors spice of 14 months, during which M. Robert asceitaitted that the talleland, , f Amarkantak, in Centraandie, which is generally stated to be 8,000 feet abOve the level of the sea, is not misre than 3,300 ftiet in height, the three brothers again met at Shulfl s pre vious to commencing the operations intended for the summer of 1856. M. Adolphus, on reaviiig that place, crossed the Himalaya, went over Thibet, Baltistan, and visited the interesting spot where several mountain crests meet, and the Hindoo Koosh joins the - range lying to the north of India. He then returned to the Punjab tbrougll the valley of Cashmere. MM. Herrmann and Robert proceeded to Ladak by e different routes. Under good disguises, they were enabled to pene trate into Turkish proper by crossing the Karako room and the Kuonluen mountains and - descending into the great valley of Yarkaryl, a ifek,Tion never visited) acne, not even by Marco Polo. It is a vast ' depression of between 3,000 and 4,01)0 feet, sepa rating the Kuenluen, on the northern frontier of India, from the Syan-Chane, or mountains of Central Asia, on the southern border of Russia. They then returned to Ladak, and entered the Punjab by different routes through Cashmere. After a two years' nego'iition M. Herrmann wag, at the commencement of 1857, admittel into NE paul, where he determined the alitudes of the Machipoora and Mount Yassa, which have hitherto been vaguely c died the Dhawalagery, which meat nothing else but "snowy crests," and is applicable hall snow-capp e d mountains.. I. Rober procee led to Bombay through Sciude, Kutscii, and Gozerat, where he surveyed the chain called the Salt Range, and determined the changes effected in the c arse of centuries in the course of several rivets. &Tore returning to Europe be steys d ihiee mouths in Ceylon. M. Adolphus visited various is of the Punjab and Cabul, previous. to returning to the Himalaya, where he still is. The chief results obtained from this careful explo ration. of Asia are tire following :—The Himalaya ii everywhere ex-et cise a decided influence over all the elements of the magnetic force ; the tlt ctinatiou everywhere presents a slight deviati. n, causing ti:e needle to converge t swards he . en tral parts of that ono moue mass, and the m ag .. greater than it would l- e any where eti et ens eu i nd is er an equal latitude.

Tie sea was tremendous—sl much so, that when in sight ,if the Cas.tets ' at about half-past three a.m. on Friday, it broke al3 we tit- steamer's mast-head. The captain, mite, and Weymouth pilot, secured themselves by lite-ropes extending fr.m' one ,ide of the ship io the other; the two moen at the wheel being also s-cured with strong ropes passed round their waists and fastened to ring-bolts at the stanchions, fearing that every moment one or the other would be washed away. Thus, with the sea making a fair breach over the vessel, and the wester washing from stem to stern, did the gallant mariners keep the , leck, drenched with ram and sea water ; Captain Uletne'it giving his orders with that precision which characterises him among the best of seamen, and his mite and crew always ready to execute them. "Having been taken through theee many perils by her int , epicl commander, the Wonder safely arrived in Guernsey Roads at ten minutes before seven on Friday morning, without hiving carried away a single thing during one of the most stormy passages on record. Too much praise cannot be givem to Capt. Clement for his manly and success ful exertions during the perilous voyage." IRELAND. ! DUBLIN, THURSDAY MORNING. PRESSURE ON THE IRISH BANKS. Let te. s fr om 'he town of Tipperary, published in the Clonntel Chronicle, state that there was a par -jai run on the hanks in the former place on S 'tur d ty, but it w.*s nnly so parti-..1 that it was expected to b'ow ov. r het'. me the cl ,, se of husineAs hours. On Monday, h .wever, the run continued on the 11.nk of Ireland and the National Bank, at both which offic a gold w s freely. - p a don demand. It w4B ex_ eeted inat the pressure would increase f,r the next few days, owing to the propagation of fat=e rumours, and on Tuesday evening according to tine of these accounts,— " The anxiety to. procure gold in exchange for de ao general among the lower classes of the tenant mien in this neighbourhood, seetn4 to be sub•iding At the National and Bank of Ireland all de- :flaring were at once met ; and, owing to the prompt wtt , ntion of the managers, Messrs. Carnegie and B rner, ,;,,i,fi,lence is again booming restored among the small , lepo6itors, by whom alone any fears were entertained. When we remember the terrible. ...honk which was tu ,- - .taitied by the small farmers, particularly in this county, through the failure of the Tipperary Joi-t-Stock Bank, we are not surprised to find their confidence se easily unhinged ; and time alone will prevent them from view ing each slight event in the monetary World in an exag eerated and unseal light. Though this run bas con tinued since Saturday, there - is not the slightest appre ner.ion among the larger depositors or traders." . . In the north, tol, there was a slight pressure on two of the local b mks, but the uttealpted run was so promptly mlt th , tt th, ni.,tter is not noticed in some of the Belfa-t papers. Tee Ulsterman says : " On Saturday a rumour WAR prevalent in town that there was a screw loose in the Ballast Bank, and during the entire evening this office was beset by dozens of people anxious to learn the truth of the matter. On Al.onday we understand there was a slight attempt at a run, hut it was a lame affair, fir the bank could have shovelled out gol•1 faster than any demand that could have been made upon it. On Tuesday in Armagh a •itni ar attempt was made, but with a similar result, and the panic in a short time subsided. With regard to the Belfast Bank we can state, without hesitation, that, constituted as it is, the Bank of England is not safer." REVIVAL OF THII SLAVE TRADE. W e have on a former occa ,ion expressed strong olijections to the plan of the :French Cr4vernment fir what they call promoting emigration from the West Coast of Africa to the French West India Islands, but what we could cousider in no other light than as a renewal of the slave.trade, with all its injurious consequences to the people of Africa. The apprehensions which were very generally enter t'ained on this score in England appear likely to be fully realised, as will be shown. by the following ex tract of a letter from Mr. Campbell, the British consul at Ligos, to a gentleman resident in Man che ter : " LagoP, Sept. 3, 1857.

BULTTER LYTTON ON THE MILITIA AND INI►IAN AFFAIRS. On Wednesday S.r E. L. Bulwer Lytton was present at the meeting of the Tring Agri cultural- Association, where there was a large muster of the ge n t r y an d f armers of the district to meet their representative ; F. J. Moore, Esq., occupied the chair. In responding to the toast of "The County Members," the hon. baronet said—" Gentlemen, recollecting the toast which was drunk at an earlier part of the evening, and considering whose guest I was last night—l mean my friend Col. Smith Dor rien, who responded in a way that showed his manly spirit and his vivid recollection of the 'deeds of his youth—l am proud to think that Hertfordshire has contributed so many of those men to the service of our country. (Cheers.) Out of that noble body of militia which this county produced, and which received, as it de'erved, the highest enconiums from the highest military autho rities—out of that body of 77.0 men, under the ad mirable training of the gentleman who sits on my right hand (a Hods man), no less than 600 men were contributed to the line. We may well be proud of Hertfordshire, and especially at this mo-- ment. Ah, who is there who is not thinking of India ? Has there been a single assembly of this kind—even where the strictest rules prohibit our touching on anything not immediaely bearing on the subject before us—has there been a single agricultural meeting, where a member of parlia ment has addressed bis constituents, when he has not been impelled by the feeling of the meeting to say something on the conditi o n o f India ? We all feel confident that no such man would debase such a subject to a party question. (Cheers.) No man, whatever he may think, what ever may be his opinion as to the faults or merits of particular parties —no man, I say, in this society, and I hope no man in England, would be base enough to make a party ques ion of the British empire. (Cheers.) In this convivial meeting, we cannot recall—it would cause too deep a pang—all that has taken place in India. Of all that has been said on the t , ubjeot lately, nothing, to my mind, has been better or more to the purpose than a letter of Lord Ellenborough. There is no party , spirit there ; there is a reservation, so far, for con sideration hereafter, as to what may be our civil or our political duties, but there is the appeal of an old Englishman to English courage, English energy, English determination. And it is perfectly true. It might be quite possible for us to lose India, as if India were swept into the wean, and still to remain a great and magnificent people. But it is itn possible for us to remain a great people—l will say it is impossible for us to remain a safe people—if we were to lose India in the way we are now threatened. It is impossible for us to be safe against Europe, it is impossible for us to be safe against any of the despots of the midi, if it could be said, "England, in the plenitude of her strength—England, with her countless army— England, with all her pride, could allow, not only her soldiers, not only the flower of her army, but her women and infants to be massacred, and ceased from the contest before she had achieved a trium phant, an effectual, a permanent victory." (Cheers.) It we could endure that, I believe the ocean. would flow around us in vain. I believe the ocean would soon be passed ; that as England has - before now been invaded, as the sea had been crossed when England had not men, as she has now, to defend her, so, though similar atrocities could not take place in tnis country, the time might coma when England would have to submit to a foreign depotism. if England loses her reputation, she loses that which di , tinguishes her from the rest of Europe. No doubt there is a good deal which we must calmly consider, which it would not become me now to enter on. At present, our duty is not that of calm reflection—our duty is to put down the revolt, and to rally with all our strength around the executive government, no matter in whose hands that government is placed—(cheers)— the executive government which represents the majesty of the Crown, whose bounden duty it is to ,pfeEerve the lives of our endangered country men. So long as the danger lasts our tongues are in some degree fettered. While they are putting down the rebellion, we must be careful not to utter a single word to weaken their authority. If at this moment a mad hull were let loose among lig, I don't think the best grazier in Yorkshire would induce us to listen to a lecture on the ma nagement of horned cattle in general—(laughter.) I think the wisest man would be, not be who could instruct you iu the best method of dealing with dangerous cattle generally, but the man who made the shortest work of the bull. Gentlemen, that is now our object —we must make short work of the bull. (Cheers.) After that we shall have to consider the wisesP, or, what is the same thing, the justest and mildest manner, consistent with our empire, a managing the wild cattle we shalt have to subdue and tam-. (Cheers.) Christianity imposes on us great obligations. The whole ques tion 'connected with India is so difficult that we ought to have the greatest indulgence for the error s of any government that may have preceded us, and to consider carefully, wisely, and without any spirit of party, how we may best do our duty to God and to that vast population committed to our sceptre. (Cheers.) THE DUKE OF RUTLAND ON TBE INDIAN MUTINIES. LEICESTER, THURSDAY. A meeting of the county of Leicester, con vened by the High Sheriff, in aid of the fund for the relief of the sufferers from the Indian mutinies, was held in the Nisi Prins Court of Leicester Castle this afternoon. The attendance, though not very numerous, comprised the leading noblemen and gentlemen of the -county and a ci.nsiderable number of the clergy. The High Sheriff (Mr. E. C. Middy - ton) presided ; , and there were also present—his Grace the Duke of Rutland, Earl Howe. Lord Bar riers, Viscount Curzon, M.P., Mr. C. W. Packe, M.P., Sir H. Raiford (late M.P. for South Leices tershire), Mr. E. B. Farnham, M.P., Col. King, Sir A. Ha.zelrigg, Major Powys, Sir J. Fowke, Sir F. Palmer, Capt. Knight, &c. The khan SHERIFF, in opening the proceedings, said, he bad convened the meeting in pursuance of a requisition which he had received from a nume rous body of the principal residents of the county. The object of the meeting was to sympathise with the sufferers from the recent Indian revolt, and to enable the people of Leicestershire to express their abhorrence of the cruelties which had been prac tised. He felt persuaded that the county would not permit such atrocities to pas by with out publicly declaring the feeling with which they regarded them and their warm sympathy with the unfortunate sufferers. (Hear.) He begged to call upon his Grace the Duke of Rut land to propose the first resolution. The Duke of RUTLAND said—Mr. High Sheriff and gentlemen, as you have done me the honour of asking me to move the first resolution on this occa sion, it gives me the greatestgratification to respond to the call. I am quite sure that it will not be ne cessary for me to trouble the meeting with any lengthened remarks to induce you cordially to pass this resolution. The resolution itself has a double object. In the first place it calla upon us to ex press our warm sympathy with our fellow brethren who have suffered in the Rust from mutineers who have basely murdered women and children ; and, in the second place, it calls upon us to add our subscriptions to those of the people of the borough of Leicester, in the hope that by the relief which we thus afford we may in some measure mitigate the bodily sufferings of our country men, though unfortunately, it will be impossible for us to alleviate their mental sufferings. (Hear, hear.) Horrors equal to those which have been enacted in India no age of the world has, I believe ever witnessed. (Hear, hear.) This is not the time to consider what provocation the muti neers may have received, nor is it the time to con sider whether the East India Directors have done their duty, or whether the Government at home have done theirs, as our object now is merely to express our sympathy with the sufferers in the East. But one thing is certain and is agreed upon by almost every man and woman in England— ' namely, that henceforward we must declare in a more open manner and in the face of day our Christianity. (Cheers.) Unfortunately in India we have gone to the other extreme, and we have endeavouredio conciliate men who have not had the feelings of men, and who have returned our kindness and our a tt emp t s to conciliate them by acts of treachery and murder. (Rear, hear.) Gen tlemen, this mutiny must be putdown. I hope that it may be done very shortly, but whether it is crushed iu a month, or in a year, or in 10 years this country must reassert her dominion. It is not only necessary for our own dignity, but it is a great moral duty, a right that we must perform, and I am quite certain that every Englishman will do his utmost to eff ec t thi s great nationalobject. (Cheers.) I a msure that e ver y man now present will do all 411 his po wer to furnish recruits both for the militia • and for th e regular array, and i am happy to say that the militia of this county, under my excellent friend near me (Col. King) bas nearly received its full complement of men. (Cheers.) His Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief stated yesterday at Sheffield that already he considered the turning point in the mutiny to have been gained, and I trust that 14 the next ma il we s h a ll b ear that the revolt is entirely crushed. That victory will ba ours those who have ssen the gallantry of the small handful of troops we have had in India up to this time cannot, I think, far a moment doubt, b u t w h en vic t or y is achieved let me express a h ope that we, shall not in the flush of v i c t ory a ll ow o ur passions to carry us away and to seek for vengeance, even ' upon I n di an S epoys. (Hear, hear.) Justice, and severe justi c e mus t b e d one ; but let us dis criminate between the guilty and the innocent. Let not the pag e o f hi story t h at s h a ll recor d the heroism of our countrymen an i women in the East—that shall record the gallantry of a Havelock and of a Nicholson against innumerable hosts, have also to aid that, when victory was ours, we con descended to use the weapons that bad teen wielded by such dastardly h i ands. (Loud cheers.) Again I say let justi ce b e d one , but let it be dis criminating Justice. Let au example be made of the murderers to show them, and to show the world, that England's laws aro not to be violated with impunity, but that death—and an ignominous death—is reserved for those who . show that they have no principles of humanity and no feelings either of commo n ki n d ness or o f Christianity. (Cheers.) In conclusion I beg to move the follow ing re olution. - "That this meeting views with the greatest abhor rence the barbarous and inhuman cruelty inflicted on their fellow countrymen, on women and on children, by the mutineers in India, and desires t give expression to the warm sympathy.which it frets for those who have undergone such brutal and unparallel.-ni sufferings," Earl HowE seconded the resolution. The resolution was then put by the High Sheriff, and unanimously sgreed to. Lord BERNER then moved the following resolu tion : "That, with a view to the alleviation of the misery and destitution in which so many of our fellow-subjeot. , in India have been involved, a subscription should be invited throughout the country." Mr. PACKE, M.P., moved the next resolution, which was unanimously agreed to : " Thkt the several banks in Leicester and the different market towns of the county be requested to receive sub scriptions in aid of the above object, to be forwarded, in addition to those already collected in the town, to the central committee in London." The Duke of RUTLAND then moved a vote of thanks to the High Sheriff for his kindness in hav ing convened the meeting, and for having presided over it. Eiti HOWE seconded the resolution, which was carried by acclimation, and the High Sheriff hav ing kriefly responded, the proceedings terminated. ALLEGED " REVELATIONS" -OIP Le Nord has commenced the publication of a series of papers, signed " Verax, and professing to be written by " un ancien fonctiounaire de la Cortpagnie des Indes, hornme eclaire et consoien cieux,' to expose .Lie misgovernment of wnich the English have bean guilty in India. Le Ncrd frankly acknowledges that "the Angle- Sawn race is the best qualified to discharge the ci•ilising mission of raising the Asiatic nations frsm their moral and political degradation ; " and itexpresses a sincere desire for the succeess of the British arms and the re-establishment of regular authority in India ; but, believing it to be oily too true that our Indian government, " care irg for nothing but its own selfish interests, has been led into every excess of cupidity and corrup tion, and that is the sole cause of the present revolt." Le Nord promises to asset us in bringing to light the abuses of the system. With this view the "Revelations of India," contributed, as our contemporary a , sertP, by a person who has occu pied au important station in that Country, are now commenced. Tie first article certainly does not contain anything worth quoting, not a sinJe scrap of information upon mat era of fact, or oven an original remark. Some general observations upon government, cited from Lord Bacon, the historian Clarendon, Montesquieu, and Dr. Johnson, serve to connect together the sentences of sweeping con demnation which the writer passes on our govern ment. One of his remarxs, however, deserves at tention : "To suppose "says he, "that England in consequence of this will ever lose India would be an idea not less fo ;lish than hasty; but it is indeed true that England, because she has alienated from herself the minds of the liidian people,• will be compelled to resort to physical force for the re-establishment of her authority, when moral force ought to have sufficed for that purpose ; and this necessity will cost her such sacrifices of men and money as she has never had to make before." In justification of this last prediction the writer states that Great Britain has already sent out to India a greater number of English troops than she pons- ssed on the field of Waterloo, and he is told that the East India Company has already borrowed of the government the amount of eight millions sterling. Our readers do not require to be told how to estimate the accuracy of his information. passengers' on board the Ripon were .Mrs. Brooks and a Mies Cloete, who escaped from M.tow. They were obliged to ride hundreds of miles through the country unassisted. They had to feed and groom the horses which had saved their lives. They were shut up in a fort for a long time. There were also two widow ladies on board the Ripon who have lost their husbands , in India. One of then, Mra. Graham, escaped from Sealcote. Her husband was shot by her side, in a couve3ance in which they were both escaping, and she drove on afterwards, and saved her own life. Mrs. Woolcomhe al , o had a narrow escape when her husband was killed. There were four orphan children anv)ngst the pas sengers who have lost their parents in India. The children were attended by native servants on board the Ripon. Very distressing scenes occurred lie tween the passengers and their friends who came to meet them - on their arrival, a crowd of whom filled one saloon.

San.lham stated that in an interview which he had with the prisoner on the 6:h Sept. the latter informed him that he was out all day, and therefore could not answer Major Nu gent's letter. Nothing was said by the prisoner as to his being absent on surveying duty. The reason witness put prisoner on early parade was to insure his being present at study, as he was gene rally absent from parade and also from study. The order was not given to the prisoner as a punish ment. Unfavourable reports were made of the pri sonerin the monthly reports for March, April, May, and June, and on tha 27th of J u ly h e was repri mandedby order of General Sir John Burgoyne, Ifispector-Ganeral of Fortifications. The prisoner was frequently in bed absent from duty in the middle of the day. Colonel Sandham also stated that the prisoner had been admonished by himself for his absence from the regimental court-martial, of which he was a member. The Court afterwards proceeded with the examination of Lieut. Montague L smiler t, Royal Engineers, in support of the charg-s against the prisoner.

In consequence of a report brought last week by a Spanish brig that there was a dismasted British ship of war with troops on board in ti c 13 ty of Bis cay, Port-Admiral Sir Barrington Reynolds des patched from Plymouth on S sturday evening her Majesty's paddlewheel steam frigate Valorous, 16, , Cept. Buckle, to render assistance. Mr T. W. Fox, jun., Ottoman Consul at Plymouth, surmising that the disabled ship was not British, but a Tur kish tine-of battle ship, for some time expected in England to receive machinery and a screw, tele graphed to the Turkish Ambassador in London, who made application to the Adinitalty, whin their Lordships sent orders immediately to Plymouth, in consequence of which Sir B. Rey nolds despatched the paddlewheel steamsloop Styx, 6, on Monday night, to assist the Valerwits The judiciousness of these measures, was proved by intelligence received on Wednesday at P ymoui h, through Ospt. Machun, of the schooner Sir Thomas Mansell, which left Coruuna on the 15•11 inst., on which day lett,rs had been received from Ferrol, stating that a Turkish ship of war was off the coast in distress, having lust her rudder in the recent gale. The same letter contained an account of the wreck of a Dutch merchant ship, and the loss of till the crew but two. The Turkish line of-battle ship expected at Plymouth is the Fethia (Victory), 90 ; she left Malta for England some time since. A por tion of her crew wear a military costume, which may have led the Spanish captain to report them as troops. The Avon, 3, paddle tender, Palmer, second master commanding, sailed from Devou port on Wednesday, with the furniture of Rear-Admiral Win. J. Hope Johnstone, for Portsmouth. The Brilliant, 20, CaptAiu F. A.

The Ripon experienced from Alexandria to Malta heavy squalls of wind and rain ; from Malta to Gibraltar fine weather, with occasional squalls. From Gibraltar to Southampton she had strong winds from north-west to no rth-north-east, and off Poi tland a dense fog darkened the channel, which compelled the Ripon to lie to. She reports the British channel to be full of skipping. She brought home about 150 passengers, con sisting of 56 first-class passengers, 18 second-class, 48 children, 13 European servants, and 8 native servants.

From the passengers we learn that a wing of the 95th Regiment had arrived at Bombay. The pas sengers met in Egypt the 200 troop s , .bound for Aden, who were taken from Malta in th e Ri pen o n autions were t a k en throughout the bs heroutwardtuetgreat ops p p a ssage. At Ad en there were no Eng lish ta m touched t r there. At B om b ay all was quiet, to guard the pl ace when the Bombay e c especially during the feastisland to ofp th u e t down m ohu a r n r y u Da? revolt, Lord Elphinstone, the Governor of the Bombay Presid ency, had taken proceedings in a very quiet, b ut apparently effec tive manner, to prevent any ser i ous out b rea k. Fifty-three men of an artillery regiment, in the Bombay Presidency, that had refused to march up the cauntry against the mutineers, were quietly shipped, unarmed, on board the steamer Bombay, which conveyed the mail from Bombay to Suez, And the men were landed at Aden. There was some anxiety lest, they sho u ld r i se against the pas sengers, but they became very sea s i ck, and cons°• quently were not very formidable. Among the THE MILITIA. The 6th West Yorkshire Militia yesterday com pleted the period of 21 days' drilling f>r which i was called out. The regiment is reported to be iu a state of efficiency. The Royal Flintshire Militia completed its period of 28 days' training yesterday. The regiment is reported to be well disciplined. The Forfar and Kincardine Militia Artillery, up wards of 8'.)0 strong, assembled at Montrose on Tuesday for re-embodiment on permanent service. Nearly the whole regiment was at roll-call, and it is known that mist of the absentees will join by the end of the week. The destination of the regi ment is Plymouth garrison, to which it will be im medlttely moved. This was one of the earliest Scotch regiments t• volunteer for foreign service during the late war, and the enthusiastic cheering which greeted a spirited address from the COM manding officer, Lieutenant-Colonel Laird, leaves no doubt that the services of this fine body of artillery may be reckoned on as available in any quarter of the globe.
