XAMPLU. and our readers will remember that, so far as it . w as possible, the University, in convocation assembled, declared its want of confidence in him as a teacher of divinity. Lord John Russell, who has great confidence in himself, probably thinks that he is a better judge than the University of Oxford is of the merits of Dr. llampden as a divine. In the appointment of Bishops, however, it seems to us that the Prime Minister should defer to the general opinion of the Church rather than to his own. If Lord J. Russell does not know, he ought to have known, that this ap pointment of 1)r. Hampden will give great offence to the Church, and may produce a disturbance the quieting of which will require far greater abilities than any which his Lordship can command. His Lordship, let us tell him, has quite enough of diffi culties to deal with at present, without dragging upon himself those which may probably arise from his forcing or trying to force Dr. Hampden upon the Bench of Bishops. But second-class Whigs have always shown far greater aptitude for getting them selves and the nation into trouble, than ability and energy for getting out of it. (From the Chronicle.) The manner in which the vacancy in the see of York has been filled up does equal credit to the judg ment and the honesty of the Prime Minister. Dr. Musgrave, the Bishop of Hereford, is translated to the archbishopric, and the bishopric of Hereford is to be conferred upon Dr. Hampden. Both appoint ments are manifestly made upon public grounds only, and in both cases we think it will be felt, by all but the members of one discontented party in the Church, that Lord John Russell has exercised a most sound discretion. The amiable prelate who has been pitched upon for for the archbishopric is known to be an able and strenuous upholder of the Protestant character of the Church of England, and to possess, in an eminent degree, those administrative talents which are not less needful to the spiritual ruler than to him who is at the head of secular affairs. The vast district comprised within the see of York is one of those in which, from the rapid development of the na tional industry, society has most conspicuously out grownin. For th o the meanse duties involved in theinfluenceofreligious andinstruc tmanagement of such a diocese Dr. Musgrave is peculiarly fitted, by a clear and firm judgment, a moderate tone of feeling and opinion, conciliating manners, and ten years of episcopal experience. It is equally honour , able to the prelate and the Minister, that the recom mendations of the former are purely of this personal kind. Dr. Musgrave has no aristocratic connexions to push him into notice. His elevation is precisely one of those facts which redeem the general system of ecclesiastical promotion in England, by showing that quiet and modest merit is not always shut out from the highest dignities. A choice so free from objection would scarcely have provoked a word of remonstrance from any quarter, but that Dr. Musgrave has evinced a very determined hostility to all the ingenious varie ties of doctrine and morality produced by the Trac tarian movement. This, however, is quite enough to provoke sneers at his preaching and depreciation of his learning and talents. Upon the same grounds, it is in the natural course of things that the name of his successor should awaken old animosities. Neither the professional acquire ments and abilities, nor the retiring and inoffensive character of Dr. Hampden,•can protect him from the ill-natured criticisms of a party who strove to crush him by an accusation of heresy, at the very time when they were themselves secretly undermining the foundations of the English Church. The Times, which in one of its unaccountable gyrations has again chosen to become the organ of this old discontent, un wisely reminds us of the great head and manager of the Hampden persecution. In what respect, let us ask, can any lover of good faith compare the new Bishop of Hereford with the " far higher mind" to whose fierce and factious opposition he is no doubt in debted for some part of his fame ? The lectures of the Regius Professor of Divinity may not be wholly free from the traces of timidity or self-distrust, uncommon as those qualities are in theologi cal writings, but they are at least untainted with the moral poison of Tract 90. His logic may not have been so finely tempered as, that'of his former opponent, but it was wielded with rather more honesty of purpose. Dr. Hampden's Protestantism was certainly not well adapted to the atmosphere of Oxford, but the bulk of English . churchmen, we apprehend, will think that - views of religious truth tending to unite together all the adherents of the Reformation, are more in confor mity with the spirit of their estahlished standards. than a system professing to harmonize with them every doctrine which they were framed to exclude. We have no desire to speak harshly of a man un questionably of the highest ability, who, whatever may have been the errors of his former conduct, did at length acknowledge his position in the Church of England to be false and unjustifiable, by openly joining another communion. But the party which Mr. Newman created, animated, and left behind him, in the English Church, might now at least be ex pected to feel too much humiliation at what has occurred to revive in the public mind the recollection of their former arrogance. There is neither discre tion nor good taste in refreshing our memories with the fact, that men whose hearts were in Rome, and whose real, if not avowed, standards were the de. crees of Trent, raised the cry of heresy in an Eng. lish University against the teachings of a Protestan professor. THE SANITARY CONDITION OF THE COUNTRY. Last night a grand demonstration in favour of a sound and comprehensive Sanitary Bill took place at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, under the auspices of the following associations:—Health of Towns, National Philanthropic, Health of London, City and Liberty of Westminster, and the Working Men's Associations. The Crown and Anchor Tavern has been the theatre of many popular demonstrations. There is scarcely a principle for which the people have fought which has not at one time or another been enunciated in this hall. Successful as many of those demonstrations have been, we much mistake the character of last night's meeting if the object for which so many people appear heart and hand to have combined will not speedily be achieved. The meeting was largely attended, and was pre sided over by Mr. B. B. Cabbell, M.P. Letters of apology were read by Mr. Davis, the secretary, from Baron Rothschild, M.P., Mr. T. S. Duncombe, M.P., Sir B. Hall, M.P., Sir W. Clay, M.P., Lord Dudley Stuart M.P., and Mr. Wakley, M.P. Baron Rothschild, in his letter, said, " The promoters of this movement may be as sured of my cordial concurrence with their desire for prompt introduction of a code of efficient regu lations, and of my disposition, under ordinary cir cumstances, to place my humble co-operation at their disposal. But I find that necessary attention to the preliminaries of the question in which I am per sonally interested, will now engross my time to an extent quite incompatible with attendance at any meet ing on or near the day fixed for your demonstration, and must therefore stand excused for declining." Mr. Duncombe pleaded illness. Sir B. Hall merely stated, totidem verbis, his inability to attend; so also did Sir W. Clay, Lord Dudley Stuart, and Mr. Wakley, alleging as their grounds absence from town and prior engagements. There were present on the platform, Mr. W. A. Mackinnon, M.P., Mr. C. Lushington, M.P., Dr. Ellerman, Dr. Gowrley, Dr. Gavin, Dr. Guy, Rev. Mr. Lusignan, Sir C. Aldi s , D r . Aldis, Mr. Joseph Rogers, Mr. J. P. Murrough, Mr. S. P. Besly, Mr. J. Randolph, and many of the most influential mem bers of the associations enumerated in the opening paragraph. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the business of the meeting, observed that it was not necessary for him to enter fully into the subject which was to engage their attention that evening, since the gentlemen who were to speak to the resolutions would clearly and distinctly place the whole question before them. He thought, however, he should scarcely perform hi s duty if he abstained from stating the particular object which they had in view in calling that meeting. It must be known to all of them that sanitary reform was emphatically the leading topic of the day; and that to accomplish that mush desired end various associations had been in existence now for some five or six years. It had been considered, as the Govern ment had taken the question up with the intention, he believed, of honestly and fairly carrying it out, that those associations should meet, and that they should come to one distinct resolution, by which their powers might be concentrated ; and all the in fluence, public and private, which they possessed, might be given to the Government to aid them in carrying their object into effect.—(Cheers.) The resolutions of the evening had been framed with that view, because they felt convinced that without a uni formity of action and a unity of purpose they never would obtain their end.—(Cheers.) There was one subject to which he wished to allude, which, though it did not stand out the most prominent, yet he hesi tated not to say formed a most important feature in the present movement—he alluded to the custom of burials in towns—(Hear, hear)—and upon this sub ject he could not refrain from calling their attention to a letter addressed to the Lord Mayor, which ap peared in the newspaper police report s o f that morn ing. The writer of that letter stated that there was at the present moment a burial ground in actual ope ration in the neighbourhood of Golden-lane, where they dug graves eighteen or twenty feet deep, leaving them merely covered over with planks until they were quite full ; that those graves remained in that state until they were filled with coffins to within two or three feet of the top, and that then they were only covered over with loose ground to the depth of two or three feet, whereas it was known that fourteen feet of hard ground was required to prevent the effluvium arising from de. cayed animal matter penetrating to the surface.— (Cries of " Shame.") He thought, then, it was pre eminently necessary for the Government to interfere, and to put a stop to such a state of things, so de structive to human life, and so antagonistic to every good and decent feeling.—(Cheers.) He was con vinced it was only necessary for the public voice t i be raised to induce the :Government to do that which was right in this respect, and it was to elicit the feeling of the public upon the subject, and to urge the matter upon the attention of the Govern ment, that that meeting had been convened. Mr. MACE INNON, M.P., proposed the first resolu tion, which was as follows :—" That the drainage and sewage of the metropolis are very insufficient, the cleansing of the streets exceedingly imperfect, the supply of water lamentably deficient in quantity, and bad in quality. That the practice of burying the dead in the midst of the living produces great demoraliza tion, and grossly violates the sanctity of the grave. That these, among other evils, entail enormous and unnecessary expenses upon the people, and lead to a great deterioration of health and fearful destruction of life." The Honourable Gentleman said he was not aware what objection there could be to the adoption of that resolution.—(Hear.) The more they considered' the subject the more satisfied they must be that some improvement must take place in the health of towns. Having had the honour of being twice chairman of a committee of the House of Commons upon the subject, and having been the first in the House of Commons who mooted the question, he did feel a conscientious and lively interest in the result of their undertaking.—(Cheers.) It was not his intention to trouble them with any lengthened re marks, but he could not help saying a few words as chairman of the committee by whom the idea was first originated in the House of Commons, that it was necessary to attend to the health of the community.— (Cheers.) Their chairman, in the course of the ob servations which he had addressed to them, said it was desirable that her Majesty's Government should take this matter in hand. He (Mr. Mackinnon)must do the present Government and Lord Morpeth the justice to say that they had in the most able and ac tive manner endeavoured to introduce a Sanitary Bill into the House of Commons.—(Hear, hear.) But Lord Morpeth had been prevented carrying out his good intentions by faction, and by various circum stances over which he had no control.—(Hear, hear.) He thought it his duty to state so much of the Noble Lord, and as it was generally his lot to oppose the measures of the present Ministry, he thought that praise from him might be taken to be impartial. The fact was, and it was a great misfortune that in our House of Commons almost every interest was repre sented but one—they found the monied interest re presented, the commercial interest represented, the trading interest represented ; they found, in short, every interest admirably protected in the House, with numbers of supporters and defenders; but one single interest was never defended, and that was the public interest.—(Cheers.) He must still say, however, that her Majesty's Ministers appeared most anxious and most zealous in the cause of the health of towns' reform.—(Hear, hear.) By many of the opponents of this measure it had been imagined that this was all a delusion—that the excitement with regard to the interment in towns was not genuine, and that it was created by persons who had an interest in the dif ferent cemeteries in the neighbourhood. H himself well investigated that subject , and hehad bad come to the decided conclusion that it was a gross, a crying, and an abominable nuisance--(Cheers)--a nuisance which ought not to exist in a civilized coun try, and a nuisance which d id not exist in any other civilized country in the globe. Was it not disgrace ful that in the 19th century Great Britain, the most civilized in the world, the nation which led the van in morality, in honour, in principle, in commerce, in deeds of arms, should be the last nation with regard to the health of its metropolis—that there should be less attention paid to the health of the people, partic u larly country of the lower of Europe ? classes, —(Chße in rers.itain, th an in any - other o sh effect which an attenti on t o sanitary reform handwuptohne the length of our li ves, l et him call their attention for one moment to what had taken place with regard to our own men-of-war. Sixty years ago when Comm o d ore A nson sailed his ship, the Centu rion, round the world, he lost in a voyage of two years and a half no less than 75 per cent, of hi s crew , n owing to th e filth , and diet,bad provisions, and bad management on boardhi a sship. Within the last ten years ano th er vessel had been the same length of time going round Cape Horn and the Pacific Ocean, and that vessel, now that sanitary measures had been adopted, lost only 2f per cent. of its crew instead of 75 . --(Hear, hear.)

WRECK OF THE NEW YORK PACKET-SHIP STEPHEN WHITNEY. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) LIVERPOOL, MO NDAY E VENlNG .—F ur th er infor mation respecting the fate of the New York packet ship Stephen Whitn e y has been received here this morning. The Cork Reporter, of Saturday, says that several letters had been received from Skibbereen, confirming the report. " The statements," says the Cork Reporter, " as to the loss of life in this unhappy disaster differ slightly. One letter mentions the loss at ninety individuals, twenty of that number being ladies; and also adds, that portions of the cargo had been washed ashore. " A second letter states the number lost at ninety five, and that the passengers on board the wrecked ship were ' all of the better class'--steerage passen gers probably. " The third, a more detailed and sprrect account, agrees with our information, as will be perceived from the extract annexed : " Skibbereen, Nov. 12. " lam sorry to inform you that, on the night before last, a dreadful shipwreck occurred outside Baltimore Harbour, on the rocks called The Calves.' Ninety-one lives were lost, and nineteen saved. Yesterday the bodies of a lady and child were thrown on shore. The lady had three gold rings on her fingers, and was very richly dressed. 'The vessel was an American packet from New York; her name I don't know yet. I am informed Mr. i Cleburne's son, of this town, was in the ship, and is one of the parties lost. It is reported, since 1 began this letter, that there were three vessels lost on the same fatal night.' " Later accounts state that the vessel was com pletely dashed to pieces, and that the cargo, which was very valuable, was being carried off by the coun try people, who flocked in thousands to the scene of the wreck. The driver of the Skibbereen mail-coach had reported in Cork that ninety-three lives were lost, amongst whom were Captain Popham and his wife. " The vessel became a total wreck in fifteen minutes after she struck. The coast the scene of the disaster is of a fearfully rugged character, and Cape Clear lies within a few miles only of the spot." In addition to the foregoing, we find the following in a late edition of this day's Liverpool Albion :- 4 We have been favoured with the perusal of a letter received this morning from a magistrate of the county of Cork, by his son, resident in Liverpool, containing the explanation of the disaster to the Ste phen Whitney, and other details. " It appears that Captain Popham, the commander of the ill-fated ship, having run close on the land, mistook the lighthouse of Crookhaven for that of the Old Head of Kinsale, and under this erroneous im pression bore away and went ashore. In ten minutes she went to pieces. All the female passengers are said to be drowned ; the first, second, and third mates shared the same fate ; and, in a short space, ninety one of the hundred and ten individuals on board were numbered with the dead. Immediately upon intelli gence reaching the inspector and collector of customs they proceeded to the scene of the wreck, and ren dered all the assistance in their power; and from the other accounts published it will have been seen that nineteen lives were saved. " Large quantities of the cargo and pieces of the wreck had been cast on shore. . - r N l / 440, • ‘..,....,, $ -........ ----- (-----: --- - .::): Pillerl'lP:rPeriltarMa:ll24llllr . _ .... _---- ~. . ~,,, , , ~ i 5,..,. . , 1.1..,p/. 7 .•_ • 4 /11 i;: : 1 ) 7...; : , ......-.; ble, . - - . - 62 - AiMIP ~,,.: ', ' ,,, ,A,': '.•'' . . - 7:.;':i ~ • "ZI. - 111 1111111k4, (-. ,-- f. • ' -- . - , . -.:.- • -''4. ,;.- 1 . 1: :"' . , *,* - ' - - N' , ;7 4 ••. / 10„. ,:. - j 1, - NT H , ' to •.• g • . ..... • _ ~ .. . , _ . • • , ~.. i -i- .-. __,,._. ...,,,,-,-.:. - , ... ~..,. ~. - 66 4.,-,..._.,„ ~ ,,...,,,',,,,,-,li , - . ; , ,1,:7: 111% . , ,',,,;,.._ .. ; _,,,, - ..7,, , -1,- : „,..: '„,'„' , „; : ..-, , k . f ..7_ : •1..- 4 ,, z ,5 -4: - 1" --a • • , ' 4-, - ~.--* ' ; ' 4 ll- --.,..,,,:: ' - --t,- , t / , ,i m• -.- --. - -ltr , . .---,- ;.,,,,,,. 14.

He as widel possible. They said that there were five -p-articular requisites which ought always to belong to every inhabited place where, hu man beings took shelter ; the first was pure air, the next good drainage, the third the total absence of all putrid vegetable or animal matter, the fourth the supply of pure water, and the fifth the re moval of all stagnant pools and cesspools from within a quarter of a mile of a dwelling. Those were the five requisites, and he left any unprejudiced person to say to what degree, or whether to any degree at all, they were enjoyed by the lower classes of the tnetropolis.—(Cheers.) Assuredly they were not to be met with; yet surely by every man of feeling, by every man who took an interest in his country and in the welfare of her poor, they must be regarded as sacred things. They were most sacred, and certainly demanded the attention of the wealthy of the commu nity.—(Cheers.) It was the bounden duty of the Legislature to inquire into this matter. He believed that Ministers entirely coincided in that view, and that it was their desire to introduce an efficient and comprehensive Bill for the purpose of promoting the health of this great town, and of every great town in England. He was sure the meeting also would coin cide with him on that point.--(Cheers.) He was satisfied nothing could be dote in this country unless public opinion took it up. He called on all present, then, to set their shoulders to the wheel to assist the benevolent intentions of that committee, that they might be enabled to realise the sentiment of the poet— " May we when nature calls to rest, And blushing skies the morn foretell, Say, ' In this cause we've done our bt st,' And bid the waking world farewell." The Hon. Gentleman resumed his seat amidst loud and universal plaudits. The resolution was seconded, and was about to be put to the meeting, when Mr. GEORGE, one of the overseers of the parish of St. Anne's, Soho, presented himself. The speaker was a member of an association for preventing burials in towns, and he seemed to think that some indignity had been cast upon that association, which prevented its members taking a part in the present meeting. He expressed himself as a warm advocate of sanitary reform, but he looked upon the prevention of inter ment in crowded cities as the prime object first to be accomplished. With reference to the monstrous abuses perpetrated in some of the metropolitan grave yards, he stated that the churchyard in his own parish had been established about 150 years, that it was only seven-eights of an acre in extent, and that 95,000 persons had in that time been buried in it. From the 4th of February, in one year, to the 22d March in the same year, there were buried in one grave, 18 feet deep, seventeen grown persons and eight children.--(Cries of " Shame.") Mr. George concluded by expressing a hope that Government, having regard to these matters, would grant some boon to the poor, for if they hid their eyes from it, they might depend upon it that, in the words of Scrip ture, they should have many curses.—(Cheers.) Mr. Rooeas (the:Chairman of the Anti-Interment in Towns Association) followed on the same side, and seemed hurt at not having been requested to partici pate in the meeting. He said the Health of Towns Association had characterised his (Mr. Rogers') object as only of secondary importance. He contended, however, that it was of the first magnitude, and that the Health of Towns Association was afraid to grapple with it on aceount of the three bishops and seventy seven clergymen that were members of that associa tion, and who derived emolument from the burials. Mr. T. BEGGS explained. The meeting was under stood to be an aggregate meeting of all the associa tions in the metropolis for the promotion of sanitary reform. Mr. Rogers was labouring under an egre gious error when he stated that the Health of Towns Association said anything about the interment in towns being a secondary object. What he (Mr. Beggs), as the representative of the Health of Towns Association, said was, " We regard the burial in towns as one branch of a very great question, and we wish it to have the same prominence as the other branches. We think it better to have one resolution, stating all the evils that we have to complain of, than to have separate resolutions. Some gentlemen may think the burial in towns the most important branch. I think the water subject the most important. So if the burial in towns has a separate resolution the water subject should have a separate resolution also." These gentlemen then said they would have nothing to do with the meeting ; they bore no share in the expense or in the anxiety of getting it up, yet, when the meeting took place, they came amongst them and attempted to throw in the brand of discord.— (Cheers.) There was no question of the evil of' laying the dead in large towns, and no doubt it ought to form an important feature in an measure for sanitary improvement, for the health, hap. piness, and morality of the country depended upon it to a great extent. If they looked to the resolution itself, however, they would see that th e su bj ect was specially introduced, and that peculiar pre-eminence was given to it by printing that portion of the resolu tion in larger letters than the other part. That was the case, and he really did not see what the gentlemen had to complain of.—(Loud cheers.) After alluding to the bad supply of water in London, to the mono polies enjoyed by the water companies, and to the High charge which, in consequence, the public had to pay for water, he contended that a case had been made out for the necessity of legislative interference. If Government existed for any intelligible purpose, it was to throw a protection, not only over the pro perty, but over the health and happiness of the com munity at large, to legislate for the whole and not for the few; and if it could be proved that a large mass of the population was groaning under oppression it was the duty of the Government to interfere.— (Cheers.) He confessed the question was surrounded with difficulties. There were about 130 paving boards in the metropolis, and there were something like 300 Acts of Parliament to regulate the paving, and cleansing, and sewage of the different parishes of London. What objection could there be to ask the Legislature to give them one simple, comprehensive Act to govern the whole of that portion of our domestic polity ?—(Hear, hear.) What they had to do now was to second the Government.—(A voice, " When it's honest.") He m a i n t a i ne d t h at the Government had manifested a desire to do something. He stated fearlessly that in the matter of sanitary reform the Government had shown themselves in advance of the people, and under such circumstances he would defend them.—(Cheers.) The speaker concluded by earnestly calling upon the meeting energetically to support the Government in carrying out this great measure of social reform. The resolution was then put and carried unani mously. Mr. C. LUSUINGTON, M.P., proposed the next re solution :—That this meeting deplores the apathy generally evinced by the public relative to the evils referred to in the preceding resolution, as well as the absence of a un if orm l aw which would enable the Government to exercise an efficient control over local administrative bodies ; and that this meeting pledges itself to support the G overnmen t i n an y efforts ma d e to pass a sound and comprehensive sanmitaernynedmeba sure." The Honourable Gentle n m d an re commenced that there should expressing g with re should have been any difference ofbecause, his disappointment a opinion as far as he related, after all, rather to h g n a d rd b t n th a e b m le o t d n e g o a f ther d an y He - * which in reality existe d.—(Cheers.) . l' proc eeding , i t h largecare into au d mon a matter of precedence than to an di ff erence of op made for sanitary re gretted that his limitedhapdersbeoennal acquaintance .with the arrangements that himHPr:vheandt,ehdowever, enteringperu speru s ed with t attention the subje et numerous reports which had been issued improvement with regard to it, and he must say that they exhibited a lamentable tale of neglect, suffering, and danger_ of neglect which they could not sufficiently atone for of suffering on the part of the poor which it was their bounden duty most earnestly to strive to remedy, and of danger which it was their common interest to meet and to endeavour to counteract. —(App .) (Al He did not see h ow they could better meet the danger with which they were threatened by the approach of that dreadful scourge, cholera, than by adopting the measures which had been suggested to them that night, and he did not see how they could more effeo tually render the Government that support of which they stood in need than by adopting the resolution which, without further preface, he now proposed to them.—(Cheers.) Dr. GAVIN seconded the resolution. The Learned Gentleman entered into numerous details, but con fined himself more particularly to the subject of hors and street cleansing. The houses of the poor, he ! which d. were generally built on damp so il ; they had no p la ce to deposit their filth and gar b age , conse quently thrown into the streets, an being neglected, those streets were in other diseases, population. n a constant state of putrescence, producing fever a nd _hese things were . and the drainage which desolated the _culated that for 3d. per head a thorough s y stem of sewage and drainage,, and a good supply of w ater, might be procured.

This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news paper on Aug. 7, 1846. 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 eppor tuaity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, is haying 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 thee I ewer 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 it they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, net only fa the restoration and produotion of hair in abund ance, but as a cure *1 nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume iti s far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any ady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, aid ,revent it turning grey, rendering the hair laxuriant and curly. A, few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the 'air brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may ice this delightful product of the vest 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, put' tea or twelve drops n the grown of the head; if very 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 apppllcatlens. If ued oa infants' eads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence en the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth et hair.--See pamphlet of testimonials.

" Sir,—lt is now three and a half years since I was sorely afflicted with Rheumatic Gout, the suffering from which induced mu to try all the proposed remedies that extensive medical experience could devise, without obtainiag any satisfactory relief trom pain.

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 nn 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 tkat health should form an item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Bligkted hopes •r neglect wound wore sorely than poverty or misfortune.

SUICIDE FROM THE HARSH CONDUCT OF A TAX COLLECTOR.—An inquest was held yesterday by Mr. Bedford, at the King's Arms, Bowling-street, West minster, on the body of John Wright, aged eighty, a carpenter. The deceased has resided for upwards of forty years at No. 22, Great Smith-street, but of late he had fallen into arrears with his assessed taxes. About three o'clock on Saturday afternoon last, Cox, the col lector's broker, went to the house with a warrant to distrain for eighteen months' taxes, amounting to 9/ The deceased's sister opened the front door, when Cox passed her and made an attempt to open the front par lour, which was occupied by lodgers, upon which she begged of him not to alarm the lodger, and if he would speak to the deceased, who was then coming up stairs, everything could be amicably settled. Cox replied he knew his business, and, to use the witness's words, bounced up stairs into the first floor, and began taking an inventory. The deceased followed him, and asked Cox to wait three hours, and he should be able to settle the demand, which was refused. The deceased, who was greatly excited, left the room, saying, "It would be the death of one of them," and in an hour afterwards he was discovered in his workshop suspended by a sash line attached to a beam. He was cut down, and Mr. t R i n a e n t do „ I p gr h b , e a e s e u r r e g n e e o r n n , a pi said o i n t o w u a n s c ead mostl i fe t la o be m ent a b quite leett e se and the jury returned a verdict of " Temporary insanity, caused by the harsh measures adopted by the assessed tax-collector."

He did not stand the operation with that stoicism we expected. The next morning four others of the same company were executed at Mixcoac, and on the 13th thirty more were hung upon one gallows at the same place. The thirty were brought out for execution about the same time that Chepultepec was being stormed, and Colonel Harney, pointing to that place, told them that they should live long enough to see the American flag hoisted upon the battlements of that fortress, and no longer. In a few moments our colours • were raised, and after they were shown to them they were launched into eternity! The clergy at San Angel pleaded hard to save the lives of these men, but it was in vain. General Twiggs told them that to Ampudia, Arista, and Santa Anna did these men owe their deaths, for they stooped to the low business of soliciting deser tion from our ranks, and had succeedud in seducing from t d o e w a T r n l H. y nb f y o r e. itt tshhtiniornwicnEr owners m ;_s e s oA . duty and alle g i ance t h e poor wretches who had to pay so l t e b t e te w r i h l as liam bee w n a r r e d c , ei f v r e e d m in ca th p i t s .

THE CONVICTS AT WOOLWICH.---Mr. Voules, chief superintendent of the Convict Establishments, attended yesterday on board the Warrior hulk, at Woolwich, to inquire into the conduct of three of the convicts who refused to obey orders when requested to change their class on the previous Wednesday. Mr. Voules, on exa mination of their cases, ordered th43M to be kept in con finement until further orders. The chief superintendent then examined into the case of one of the guards, named Williams, who was suspended by Mr. Masterman, for striking Quartermaster White, in the presence of the convicts, and Mr. Voules at once dismissed Williams from his employment. The power of corporal punish ment has been withdrawn from the resident superintend ents of convicts, and therefore the ztatement that they have been more severely dealt with since Mr. Duncombe's inquiry. has no foundation whatever:.

(From the Times.) We believe we may set at rest the speculations which have been raised by the vacancy in the see of York, by announcing that Dr. Musgrave, the Bishop if He re f or d, i s to be the new Archbishop, and that he 's to be replaced in his present see by Dr. Hampden, little to remar ei li aloi ; :sgpte b oirh, ro i l l eoya t roei t km, l Regius Professor of Divinity at Oxford.

But there is a clerical gift not at all formidable to statesmen, though otherwise exceedingly useful in days when everybody, in or out of office, is thrown on his own intrinsic resources. Preaching, though apt to be schismatic, is not often rebellious. Dr. Musgrave can write a sensible discourse ; but he has neither the physical nor the intellectual powers requisite for the most ordinary degree of oratorical effect. The Whit fields and Wesleys of - Yorkshire have no reason to tremble for their reign. The other appointment ***far More , serious affair. We cannot imagine on what princiPie or motive it has been adventured, and should certainly have thought that the' maxim Quieta non movere applied to the embers of that melancholy quarrel. Dr. Hampden is now a purely historical character. Se veral years since a very great battle was fought over his body, and very great bitterness excited. His appointment to the Regius Professorship could not be disturbed, but the University pronounced, or rather enacted, upon him a very clumsy and irregular sort of censure, which it has not, indeed, removed, but which it has incidentally and partially qualified in a recent professorial statute. The same statute, however, which recognizes Dr. Hampden's authority also swamps him with a crowd of theological rivals ; and the young divines of Oxford may now choose their several favourites from some half-dozen pro fessors. Dr. Hampden is not an attractive teacher, and he never would have set the Isis on fire if his own natural flint had not come in collision with the well -tempered steel of a far higher mind. As matters now stand he is very well housed and shelved. He is Regius Professor of Divinity, Canon of Christ Church, Rector of Ewelme, and Principal of St. Mary Hall. He possesses little influence, and excites few alarms. The University has protested, and with that protest is now perfectly content. We should have thought, therefore, that the present state of affairs is satisfactory to all the parties concerned ; and nothing certainly can be more unnecessary than to disturb it. It is now some years since the Clcurch of England presented itself to the State in a jealous and anta gonistic character ; and whatever the results of theological warfare, we cannot but think the country has derived great benefit from the truce we at present enjoy. Whatever differences may occasionally arise between Church and State, nothing is more evident than that they should act conjointly, and as one, in the government and social improvement of the country. o:ate:nil" employment,et we For some time there has been a considerable degree of co-operation between the two powers. We have recently seen them making mutual concessions in the cause of education. Much yet remains to be done In bodies and souls, habits and habitations, there is still room for improvement. Fifteen thousand educated persons, generally with time and talents to spare, posted at geographical intervals over the whole country, and under one system of management, are a corps of auxiliaries not to be despised. A distin guished savant recently proposed that they should all be compelled to make and contribute atmospheric and other physical observations. A statesman will take much the same view of their moral and statistical opportunities. Their cordiality, as well as their con sent, is required. Everything, therefore, likely to make a breach with ever so inconsiderable a party in the Church ought to be avoided. On the other hand, there is no party whatever, at least none worth taking into account, to whom the new appointment to the see of Hereford can possibly be agreeable. It is not a question be tween High and Low Church, or between the Church and Dissenters. Dr. Hampden may have been ready to receive consolation from all who were ready to offer it; but if we ask what is the original ground he represents in the field of theology, we shall find very few parties willing to share it unreservedly with him. Dr. Hampden, being neither a graceful writer, nor an original thinker, nor a clear-headed man, procured an appointment which demanded at least one of these qualifications. By canvassing a limited board of electors he became Bampton Lec turer. Haply at the moment he fell in with persons who were both willing to suggest a topic, and able to develop it. Under questionable auspices he com posed a very dull compilation from French and other writers of indifferent repute, and whom it would have contributed as little to his theological as to his literary credit to acknowledge. The fact is, that ' Dr. Hampden had not the l eas t no ti on w h a t h e was writing about, or what he was driving at, or where it would end. He had just the sense to stop short where he did, and as he afterwards became still more sensible, lie took care for the future to stop still shorter. He has not, however, honesty and openly, recanted a system which turns into a mere mist of words, or rather into nothing at all, not merely this or that doctrine, but everything Christianity pro fesses to teach and reveal. H e cont i nues an offender, only against Anglican orthodoxy, but not against Presbyterian, Wesleyan, Independent, Baptist; and every other orthodoxy whatever. Lord John may depend upon it that in selecting Dr. Hampden he has committed a political error. He has roused the slumbering antipathy of a considerable, though a beaten and discountenanced party. It is not safe for a popular chief to neglect any element of influ ence. For some time he has been reaping the benefit of a growing belief that he is a better friend to the Church than Sir Robert. The clergy, accordingly, are beginning to look with favour on liberal measures. It is something to silence a battery which merely annoys. The clergy, however, can do more than annoy. In their separate capacity they have an im mense negative power. They can refuse to do almost anything, and if they are sulky will be very likely to make a virtue of idleness. Bishops and Parliaments can make a clergyman reside on his living as easily as you can bring a horse to the pond, but they can nc more make a clergyman do an atom of good than you can make a horse drink. Now, such an appointment as that we announce is just the very thing to drive half the clergy to di sgus t an d despair. Forth with, instead of heading and tailing old sermons, they will set to work writing new ones, discussing Church and State, and intimating very plainly that a certain person, who should not, guides the counsels of Downing-street. They will represent themselves as persecuted, insulted, and betrayed. They will publish sermons and circulate tracts. The booksellers will get a harvest, for which the families of some five hundred reckless and needy pamphleteers will pay with reduced allowances of bread and butter, and a protracted wear of last year's new clothes. Mean while, a t r i i m sh e es an w d il t l em h p e er ru w in il e l d b . e lost l ;thpiastimenace,hpeusrsilleys., but a statesman is bound to prevent it if he can. A wise shepherd has no respect for the intellect of his University, will be sheep, but he nevertheless takes most carefully into account all that they are likely to do. u R s gerga Regius (From the Post.) tm s aenngt from otm enough the It has been publicly announced tHhaatmDpar.e:l, now Bishop of Hereford, will be elevated to the Arch diocese prufesser of ef Y p o i r v k i , nit a y nd in t o ha x t for D d r. the new Bishop of Hereford.

There seemed to be nothing to rer as the Church was concerned, in the removal ' of e far Si Robert Peel from power; but Lord John Russell as if he were desirous of proving that connex a io s of the Church with the State is even a greater evil, under his Administration, than und er that of the vi Right Hon. Member for Tamworth. The Right Rev. Personage said to be chosen for the Archdiocese of York is by no means eminent as a divine. He has abilities of a certain kind, which it is understood were found useful to the Whig s in the electioneering affairs of the West Riding of Yorkshire. Hence his promotion to the Episcopal Bench. But Hereford not being enough, he now gets York! Does Lord J. Russell expect that such promotion will serve the cause of religion, or make the Church more effi cient for its great work ? And yet the appointment to York is almost com mendable in comparison with that to Hereford. Dr. Musgrave is not eminent for sound divinity, but Dr. Hampden is notorious for unsound divinity. True, he is Professor of Divinity in Oxford Uni versity, but it was not from the University he re ceive that appointment. He is the Regius Professor, " Nine years back a similar fate attended another ship upon the same spot, the Lady Flora Hastings, we believe ; and on that occasion every soul on board perished."
