'lh¢ essential object of this treatise La to point out the fearful con equences 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 ether class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, end who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitles'. It to absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are rrinciples of personal management which cannot be violated with tit incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties way be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness rnay be removed, and howthe 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.

But all classes should not be judged in their use of money by a common standard. We understand that Mr. Morrison, to his honour, has most equitably distributed his immense wealth and estates among the members of his large family. In the relations of private life few have surpassed him, nor had he really any vanity in wealth, though he might, perhaps, have better estimated its worldly value and me. Mr. Morrison's accumulations may be estimated as nearer four than three millions sterling, and a considerable sum of this prodigious private fortune is invested in the United States. In proof his singular sagacity and foresight, we are informed that no portion of his Transatlantic capi tal will be ultimately lessened by the recent tempo rary "panic" and monetary disturbance in that country. All his investments will " hold on" to a probable increase. The cautious capitalist never nets more profit than after times of national adver sity.—Times. AMERICA. LIVERPOOL, Nov. I. The British and North American Royal Mail steam-ship Niagara, Wyckman commander, has arrived with advices from Now York to the 20th ult., and Boston to the 21st ult. She has brought 64 passengers, but no specie._ The screw steam-Shipk Edinburgh, from Glasgow, bad arrived - at New York, and the Royal mail steam-ship Europe, hence, at Halifax. The Canadian Royal mail steams-hip North American, hence, passed River du Loupe on her way to Quebec on the 19th ult. A communication from Washington states : " Information has been received here from the Squill that Walker's expeditions—one to leave New Orleans and the other Galveston—have been de• layed in consequence of financial pressure until the Ist of November. They do not expect to meet with serious, if any, opposition from the Federal officers. They propose to land at some point in Costa Rica, on the Atlantic coast, and then march on San Jose, the capital of that Republic, which they expect to reach in two days. Their calcula tion is that when they capture it the whole country will be in their possession. The aggregate of the Filibuster force is from 1,800 to 2,000 men." Official orders had been received at the naval yard to fit out a fast steamer which would be de spatched to arrest the expedition. A great tit e, attended with some loss of life, had occurred at Chicago. The damage was estimated at $600,000. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald says : " Advices received here represent that New Grenada is disappointed iu the convention lately agreed upon between General Herren and our Government ; and further, that the President has been authorised to sell the Isthmus." Colonel Summer had been charged with the fal siqcation of his official report, and was called upon by the Government to answer the accusation. The steamer Tropic struck against a snag in the Missouri river, and 12 or 15 people were drowned. Indiana had chosen Chase (publican) ropresenta- tive to the Congress. The New York Courier• and Inquirer of the 20th says—" The extraordinarily rapid extinction of bank credits is fully shown in the - weekly report for to-day. This report includes the statements of 51 banks instead of 52 for the previous week ; the North River Bank being the only additional one that has no; reported. It was generally supposed last week that there would be no further curtail ment of loans ; but it seems that the actual refine tion of the three leading items is as follows (after allowing for the North River Bank) : " Loans 53,731,427 " Specie " Deposits " A large portion of the deposits was paid in specie, and another large portion has been applied to the extinction (to a similar extent) of discounted paper. The remaining reduction may be traced to the curtailment of country hank balances. The ' pressure for blink accommodation is atilt great among our merchants—good paper cannot he passed to-day under 11 per cent per mouth. A due regard to the financial wants of the community, and to the interests of the bank themselves points to a mode rate increase of loans instead of a diminution. " The loans and deposits of the following banks have decreased during the past week as follow : Loans.

In fact, a concerted move to increase their loans 10 per cent. during the week (as in Boston) would for the time relieve a large number of solvent parties and serve to strengthen, rather than impair, the re soarces of the banks. A measure of this kind, to be serviceable, should be general, and the proposi tion to this effect at the Clearing-house should he voted viva voce, so that the community should know who are the parties opposed to such measures of relief. The movements of the banks are of too much importance to the community to be kept in the dark. The merchants should be informed as to who are the parties that have contrived er com bined during the late revulsion to force a contrac tion of the currency and the loans. " The Metropolitan Bank has decided to receive New England Bank bills on deposit, according to the terms indicated in the following notice : " Metrop Titan Bank Notice.—This bank will take on deposit, at per cent. discount, all New England money which is received at the Suffolk Bank, Boston, (this for the present excludes all Rhode Island)—payimr, for the net proceeds the day after it is received and counted by this bank, re serving the right to reject a large or unusual amount of any one bank.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE MOSLEY AND MOSLEY—RIGHTS OF PUBLISHERS OF NEWSPAPERS. The bankrupts, Charles and John Marlow Mosley, were news-agents, carrying on business at 16, Catherine• street. This was the first meeting under the bankruptcy. The petitioning creditor is Mr. W. H. Smith, juo., of the firm of W. H. Smith and Son, advertising agents, of the Strand. Amongst the parties attending to prove debts was Mr. Cope, publisher of the Times, who sought to prove for 5001., for papers sold to the bankrupts. Mr. Ford, who was taking the proofs, said he under stood there were several persons seeking to prove as publishers of newspapers for papers supplied to the bankrupts. The proprietors themselves were not pre sent, but the publishers were the persons who supplied the papers ; and the question arose whether they were not the proper parties to prove. Mr. Edwards, the official assignee, asked if the pub lishers were not engaged at a sa►ary I Mr. Ford replied in the affirmative. The Commissioner—l suppose they sell the papers for some one else I Mr. Ford—Certainly. The proprietors are in some cases a very numerous body, and it would be inconve nient to call on them to attend here. His Honour said it would be necessary for them to make the proof. The publisher could not go so far as to swear that the debt was one due to him, and that he had received no security. If a party made a contract in his own name, ha might take advantage of it in his own name ; but this did net seem t ) be the case here. , Mr. Ford—l find that the publisher is responsible to' - , ..th&Proprietors for tbe papers suppliea. The Commissioner—lf he sold them at his own risk, and in his own name, the case would be different. Mr. ford—He sold them as the publisher. The pro prietor knew nothing of the parties to whom they were sold, nor of the sale. They were sold by the publisher at hi+ own risk. The Commissioner—What to is prevent the proprie tors from afterwards bringing an action against the bankrupts ? The rule of law is that an action on a con tract may be brought either by the party who made it or the party who is beneficially interested in the con tract ; but the rule in bankruptcy is to require the party beneficially interested in the contract to make affidavit that the debt belongs to him. Mr. Ford—ln the case of newspapers the very object of baying a publisher is to place somebody before the world who can make contracts, so as to relieve the public from the necessity of suing the whole of the proprietors. The Commissioner—That i 3 all very true ; but when you tell me that there is a proprietor, you must produce him, to swear that the money is due to him, and that he has not received any satisfaction or security. Mr. Ford—l can call the party seeking to prove, who will state that he considered the debt due to himself. The Commissioner—No "natter what he may state. The party interested is the party to prove. There can be no difficulty about it. The proprietors need not at tend here personally ; they can send an affidavit. The proof was then ordered to stand over. It was stated that the debt due to the Times is altogether about 8001. Mr. Smith, jun., the petitioning creditor, was chosen trade assignee. From a preliminary statement of affairs, prepared by Messrs. Hart, accountants, it appears that the bank rups owe about 5,5001., with assets of 1,5001. Mr. Flews asked for an allowacce of 21. a week to the elder bankrupt (upwards of 70 years of age), whioh was granted. NAVA.L AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. Orders have been received at Chatham Garrison directing the members of the gimer4 court-martial which assembled at Chatham barracks on Aug. 19th last for the trial of Lieut.-Col. J. Clarke, Ist West India Regiment, to reassemble on Wednesday next, under the presidency of Col. H. H. Jervis, H. R. H. the Commander-in-Chief having directed the proceedings in one of the cases which came be fore the Court to be revised. The other prisoners tried by the same court-martial were Capt. J. S. Macaulay, Ist West India Regiment, and Capt. C. J. Dowse, Royal Artillery. On Saturday nearly 300 recruits from the various recruiting districts in Great Britain and Ireland ar r►ved at Chatham garrison for the purpose of join ing the scaveral Indian depots at the Provisional Battalions. The strength oftho garrison at Chatham is about 5,000 men of all ranks, nearly the whole of whom are ready to embark for India and take the field whenever their serviets are required. The total number of recruits who arrived at Chatham during the month of October exceeded 1,500, the whole of whom are being trained for service in The following medical officers have received orders to join their respective regiments—Assistant Surgeon Aplin, 68th Light Infantry, at Portsmouth, and Assistant Surgeon Whittaker, 69th Regt., at Devonport. The following officers have been granted leave of absence frill]. their Indian depots at Chatham :-- Capt. J. S. Manley, 27th Enniskillens ; Capt. D. R. Croasdaile, 61st Regt. ; Capt. L. N. D. Ham mond, 90th Light Infantry ; Lieut. C. J. Coote, 18th Royal Irish; and Lieut. T. F. Lewis, 23d Welsh Fusiliers. Some alterations and additions are about to be made at the North and South batteries at Great Yarmouth. Nearly 200 recruits have arrived during the week at the Colchester Camp, the present streng,h of which is estimated at 2,320 rank and file. Soml of the men who are unfit for further service will shortly be discharged at Chatham. On Saturday a detach ment left the camp for the Clacton-marshes, for the purpose of rifle instruction. A party of the Rifle brigade have also left for Hythe for the same ob ject. The camp suffered a good deal last week from the heavy rains with which the eastern district was visited, and more efficient drainage arrange ments are now in progress. On Friday the Renown, 91, new screw steamship, made her final trial from Sheerness. During a run of five hours and a half her average speed was 12-65 knots per hour,. Her engines and all her machinery worked in a highly satisfactory manner. On Friday evening the officers of the flagship Waterloo at Sheerness gave an amateur theatrics performance, followed by a supper and ball, to a select assemblage of the naval and military officers and their families. The Ordnance sea embankment on the north east side of Miletown, Sheerness, having during heavy gales of wind sustained considerable damage, at times threatening the town with inundation, the Board have directed Messrs. Kirk and Parry, con tractors, to put it into an efficient state of repair. The following appointments were made on Sa turday at the Admiralty : Commander Henry J. Evans to the 'mama ; Lieut. Thomas H. Collingwood to the Heron; Goo. P. Heather, mast er , to the Heron ; Sir Lamb ton Loraine, midshipm a n, to the Heron ; Henry J. Martin, midship man , t o he Spitfire ; and G. J. B. Elphinstone, midshipman, to the Diadem. FUNERAL OF GENERAL CAVAIGNAO. PARIS, SATURDAY. The funeral obsequies of General Cavaignac took place this day in the church of St. Louis d'Antin. The various detachments of the garrison selected to pay the last military honours to the deceased began to move from their quarters at 11 o'clock, and shortly after that hour took up position in the Rue Caumartin and the other approaches to the church.- The detachments were taken from the 45th and 85th of the line ' with a-battalion of foot Chas seurs • at their h ea d rode General de la Charriere, with his staff. The cortege left the General's resi dence, 29, Rue de Londres, at half-past 11, and reached the church a few minutes past 12. It was opened by a detachment of the Chasseurs of Vin cennes, followed by two troops of Hussars, four companies of infantry carrying their colours, riddled with shot and bearing the word " Sebastopol." The eagles surmounting them were veiled with crape, and the drums were muffled in the same sable covering. Two mourning carriages followed for the officiating clergyman and his assistants, and then came the hearse, surmounted at each corner with tri-coloured flags intermingled with lofty black plume s . Th e General's sword and military decorations were laid on a velvet cushion, which was borne after the chief mourner—General Cavaignac, the uncle of the deeeased. The ends of the pall were held by MM. ..dchaux, Bastide, Guinaud, Bayard and \l4. 6 4,adtlit the deeesteci4edirotled—:-. or were 'very laume roes; grid among them were a few working-men in their blouses ; then came the General's private car riage and eight mourning coaches. When the hearse turned into the Rue Caumartin from the Rue St. Lazare, the cure of the church of St. Louis d'Antin, accompanied by his clergy, issued out in procession, and received the body at the church door, wh le a funeral symphony was executed by the military bands. After the usual prayers at the entrance, the coffin was placed on the catafalque before the h gh altar, and the military hat, sword, and star were deposited on a cushion of black vel vet by its side. Amon.. the persons who stood by the catafalque were MM. Odier (father-in-law of the deceased), O'Dillon Barrett, Dufaure, Piscatori, Crewieux, and a considerable number of political and literary celebrities. Mass was celebrated by the cure of the parish, and the solemn music was executed alternately by the choir and organ and the military band. The ceremony was performed throughout amid the profoundest attention. After the absolution was pronounced the body was again placed in the hearse, and the cortege, preceded by a squadron of Ilus,ars, and followed by the de tachments of infantry already mentioned, moved from the church by the Rue Chaussee d'Antin, Rue St. Lazare, and Rue de Clichy, to tLo cemetery of ontmartre, the burial-place of the family. The streets in the neighbourhood were crowded with people, and the windows of every house in the Cuausseo d'Antin, Rues St. Lazare, Victoire, Provence, Joubert, St. Nicolas, Londres, Tivoli, and Clichy, from which even a slight glance could be got of the hearse, were thronged. A troop of the mounted Paris Guards, and several squads of Sergents de Ville kept the passage clear, and their exertions prevented confu sion in the narrow thoroughfares. All was con ducted with order and regularity, though the crowd who accompanied the hearse to the gates of the cemetery could hardly be less than 15,000. A small portion only of the cortege was admitted inside. Most of those forming it wore well-dressed persons, apparently merchants and shopkeepers, who, no doubt, remembered with gratitude the services ren dered by the deceased General in June, 1849. There were not many of those unmistakeable characters who usually swell the funerals of other political leaders, and it was remarked that there were at least six times as many of the Republican party present at the funeral of Godfrey Cavaignac, the General's brother, who died in Paris not long before the revolution of 1848. Every one expected to see an Imperial carriage in the train, but such was not the case. As the hearse passed slowly along every hat was raised, and the spectators often re mained bareheaded until it was out of sight. The body was interred in the family vault, where lie the remains of the general's m9ther, and his brother, Godfrey Cavaignac. No speech was pro nounced over the grave. Among the political and private friends of the deceased were most of his colleagues in the govern ment of 1848 anal many other well known person ages. The most remarkable were MM. Senard, Odillon Barrot, Crewieux, Duvergier de Hauranne, Frelon, Vaulabelle ' Bixio, Colonel Guinard, Car not, Dufaure, Ferdinand de Lasteyrie, Hao Dubochet, Betlimont, Jeanron, Jules Simon de Tocqueville, Generals Rulhieres and Piat. The pall-bearers were MM. Goudchaux and Bastide (both ex-Ministers), Colonel Guinard, and a work man in a blouse, named Baillard, an elector of the circumspection of Pat is for which General Cavaig nac was recently elected. The chief mourners were General S tan islas Cavaignac, M. Fermin Cavaignac, and M. de Foissy, all cousins of the deceased. The usual military salutes were fired over the grave. It is perhaps not generally known that General Cavaign:te's was never considered a good life. When he was only a c tptaiu in Algeria, a general, in a .report] speaking of him in terms of high praise, observed that he was an officer who had a great care er b e f ore hi m if his health would permit. In 1839 he was obliged to leave his regiment for a long while on account of illness. lie bad long suf fered from disease of the heart. On the 17th of July last be wrote to his friend M. Senard that he pa.sed his life with a sense of palpitation and suffocation, and, punning upon his malady, said he perceived that nothing iu the world was less grand than a Bros aeur. The Constitutionnel, while declaring that it was always opposed to the political views of the de ceased, does not hesitate to speak of his military and private character in terms of high praise. It says :--- " General Cavaignac figures in the noisle list of military captains formed in the school of Africa. He occupies a most honourable position between Mar shal Bugeaud, the master of a crowd of glorious pupils, and the brilliant generation illustrated by St. Arnaud, Canrobert, Pelissier, Mac Mahon, &c. We will not inquire, like some over severe judges, whether he com man d e d those eminent qua l i ti es , those sudden inspirations, those magnificent reso lutions which make great commanders. The latter are rare in all ages. It is sufficient to consult the history of Algiers to render justice to the military talents of General Cavaignac. When the French selected for Minister of War the brother of God frey Cavaignac, rather for his name than for his merits, it found in him not a party leader, but a commander capable of defending civilisation, when threatened, against the Huns and Vandals of the 19th century. General Cavjgnac was not found wanting in that difficulty. He displayed in the streets of Paris the coolness, tenacity, and courage which he had brought to bear against the contin- ' gents of Abd-el-Kader. His plans may be open to criticism ; but none can question his devotedness and energy. It will, moreover, be remarked that the bitter censure directed against the conduct of General Cavaignac in the days of June proceeded from the ranks of the Republican party. We, at least, cannot be reproached with h av i ng a tt ac k e d him. When,in the inquiry opened by the Assembly, Republicans accused the General of having disobeyed the formal orders of the executive commission, iu not having concentrated sufficient troops in Paris, when the first democratic orators reproached him with having ser ved as the instrument of a coterie the , candidateship of General Ca impatient of power, we never dreamt of question hu.ge I residency of the Republic, we question ing his claim to the gratitude . of the country. Wh I from pronouncing a single word whi committed m to it l t d e d t c linvl l e l iascoe c ij o atp u bo l os d sttla b l e n . ei nt e rpreted into a slur on his cha racter as a public man or as a military commander. ae a statesman, times yielded too readi . its ; that he some lyto illusionswhich his friends careless of compromising his name, suggested to his mind. apvearigt: We set aside all these eloudsin order to IF ld to a s ingle point, namely, that one day, after escaping from a very great danger, public opinion admitted IVe General Shall that the General had merited well of his country. That day we shall never forget, and we inscribe it as a glorious date on the marble of his tomb." The following is the language of the Debats:— " France has lost . one of her mos t ill us t r i ou s and best citizens. This is not the mom e nt to call to m ind the eminent claims which General Cavaignac had acquired to the gratitude, the esteem, and the affection of the public. In th e per il ous pos t which the revolution of February pl ace d him, he had the glory and the happiness, which are bestowed on but few men, of saving his country and society, when threatened by one of the most terrible crises they had to pass through for a period of sixty years. From the elevati on o f hi s c h arac t er , Ins s•raightforwa!al conduct, and by the ardour and • sincerity of his patriotism, the General was one of the men in whom the country had most placed i ts confidence. May the universal manifestation of public grief be, for his afflicted friends and his cruelly-tried family, some compensation for the terrible and unexpected blow which has removed him from their affection and their hopes 1" THE MILITIA. The South Lincolnshire Militia is not to be em bodied at present, although the officers have volun teered for service through the Lord-Lieutenant of the county. The King's Own (Ist) Staffordshire Militia, under the command of Col. the Hon. Wellington P. Tal bot, will assemble at Lichfield on Tuesday, the 3d, for garrison duty. This regiment did duty at Windsor from 1798 to 1812, and in Ireland until 1816, and was at Dover and in the Mediterranean for . nearly three y ears d ur i ng th e l a t e C r i mean war. It is rumoured the regiment will again go abroad. The Leicester Militia will assemble at Leicester on the 3d inst. The Royal Sherwood Foresters (Notts Militia' will, it is expected, be shortly removed from New. ark to Sheffield. The Victoria Rifle Regiment of Volunteers for the county of Middlesex will muster for drill every Wednesday evening during the winter months at Allen's Riding School, Bryanston-square. Fifteen officers and 400 men of the Royal Lan cashire Artillery leave Liverpool by rail for Ports mouth to-day, for the purpose of entering upon garrison duty. The Royal Merioneth Rifles have been dismissed from their annual training, having been previously inspected by Colonel Raymond, who expressed his high satisfaction at the discipline of the corps and their excellent private conduct. The regiment numbered its full complement, and was very anxious for permanent embodiment. Several soldiers volunteered to the Line, principally to the Fusilier Guards, 9th and 53d regiments MELANCHOLY SUICIDE.-011 Saturday afternoon, be tween 3 and 4 o'clock, a young female was noticed to leave the York and Albany Tavern in the Regent's pai k, in a state of great excitement, having been noticed to wait about in expectation of some one the best part of the afternoon. She was seen to descend to the towing path of the canal, in the direction of Kentish Town, and soon after she was lost sight of.

DEATH OF MR. JAMES MORRISON. Mr. James Morrison, of Basildon-park, Berkshire, one of the " Merchant Princes" of the city of Lon don, died on Friday afternoon at his country seat, where, in a declining state of health, he had resided for some years. Mr. Morrison w.ss in the 68th year of his age. In mental character, and with immense riches entirely self-acquired, this great millionaire was a remarkable man. We believe Mr. Morrison was a native of -Hants ; born of yeomen parents originally of Scotch descent. Early transplanted to this metropolis at the end of the last century, the country boy first set foot in London, unaided, in search of his fortunes. He was accustomed to say that be was thus launched in life and in the City with no other means than the principles and habits lan excellent mother had given him—an "in debtedness" to a female parent which most boys largely owe. His first employment as a warehouse assistant procured him a bare maintenance ; but his industry and trustworthiness soon secured a part nership in the Fore-street business of toe late Mr. Todd, whose daughter he married. So far it may be said his start in life was accidental, but Mr. Mor rison's constant rise in life was no accident. His onurrntrisxealtivivas the result of Ilia, own -natural sagacity, perseverance, and integrity. Moveover, be possessed the great faculty of quick penetration into human character, and the tact of attaching to his various mercantile concerns the aid of partners and managers for the subdivision of the labour of his establishments. His great merit was that he made the fortunes of many other city men. Through out life this faculty of discovering and planting the right men in the right places was more or less carried out in all his applications of growing capital. Dur ing the long course of his devotion to trade and commerce Mr. Morrison's mind never stood still Every social change in business—in demand and supply—he keenly discerned and promptly acted on. Thus his great parent business in Fore-street has retained to the present time its lead among rivals. After the close of the great consineuta.l wars, and the consequent rapid extension of popu lation and wealth, Mr. Morrison was one of the first English traders who reversed his system of management of an entire departure from the old exaction of . the highest prices. His new . principle was the substitution of the lowest remunerative scale of profit and a more rapid cir culation of capital. and the success of the exper . - meat speedily created his pre-eminent wholesale trade. "Small profits and quick returns" was his motto. Other houses soon followed in his wake, c >mparatively successfully ; but the genius which originated the movem, , nt, notwithstanding active competitors, maintained its supremacy. The rapid increase and vast profits of the " dry goods trade," as the Americans term cotton, woollen, and linen goods, are illustrated by the warehouse palaces which, of late years, have been erccted in London and in our great provincial manufacturing towns. Almost within half a generation this internal and foreign commerce has been thus revolutionised. The result to Mr. Morrison in middle age was the accumulation of his large original fortune. His re-investments, of course, were thenceforwards variously extended beyond his legitimate business, and his enterprises at home and abroad were attended by almost invariable success. For several years past he had been one of the principal purchasers of British land, his most considerable properties being in Berks, Bucks, Kent, Wilts. Yorkshire, and Islay, in Scotlan. He had a " born interest" in agriculture, and few men better appreciated the real value of good and bad land. He measured rent by the nature of soil, the timber, the surplus or lack of water ; the numbers, character, and con dition of the local labouring class ; the distances between produce and markets ; the quantum of poor -rates; the commutation of tithe ; and the costs of laud management. Acute observation, calculation, and reason guided him in all he bought or sold ; and if he foresaw a probable bid debt he took care to lessen, if not to "cover" it. Mr. Morrison, from his earliest settlement in London, was associated with the Liberal party in the city. At periods called "the worst of times" he was foremost in the ranks of the Reformers ; nor did his latsr gain of immense wealth ever vary his political principles and conduct in public. We believe that his first seat in the House of Commons was his succ,ssful contest of the Corni-h borough of St. Ives in 1830. On the dissolution of Parlia ment in 1831, occasioned by the Reform question, he did not return to his offended constituents, having honestly supported the partial disfranchisement of that small electoral body, St. Ives being placel by Lord Grey's Bill in schedule B. In December, 1832, the first general election after the Morin Acts, he was returned at the h, ad of the poll a representative of Ipswich, but was defeated in that borough on the " Peel Dissolu ion," January, 1835. On en election petition, Sir F. Kelly and Mr. R. A. Dundas being ousted, Mr. Morrison, with Mr. Wason, on a new election headed the poll. On the succeeding disso lution, July, 1837, Mr. Morrison remained out of Parliamen , and on the following December, on the occasion of a " bye-election" for a vacancy in Sudbury, he was defeated in a contest with Mr. Jo ;eph Bailey. In March, 1840, he re-entered the House of Comm) is, defeating Mr. John Frazer, in a contest fur the burghs of Inverness. In July, 1841, on the general election, be was again returned by his Seotcu constituency unopposed. On the dissolution of 1847, his health being much impair ed, he finally retired. It is scarcely necessary to record• that throughout his political career in the British Senate Mr. Morrison was a consistent sup porter of the Liberal Administrations ; his name was never missing in any material votes ; his speeches were only occasional, usually on subjects of political economy, the currency, Poor-laws, trade, foreign commerce, &e. In 1836 he made an able speech on moving a resolution relative to the periodical revision of tolls and charges levied on railroads and other public works. In 1845 he moved similar resolutions ; and again, in March, 1846, when he finally succeeded in obtaining the memorable select commit tee for better promoting and securing in Rail way Acts the interests of the public. His draught report, not altogether adopted, was drawn up with great skill and labour • and many of 'its principles have since been carried out in subsequent legisla tion. All these valuable speeches and documents, with observations "on the defects of the English system of railway legislation," were collected and published by Messrs. Longman in an octavo volume in 1848. Mr. A/Pt - Julio(3h, in his Literature of Political Economy, bas mentioned this labour of Mr. Morrison in the public service with approba tion, observing that more good would have been effected had legislation not been too long delayed. Nevertheless, in consequence, Government has secured powers of surveillance for the prevention of accidents, and many increased facilities for the transmission of the mails. Mr. Morrison through out his public life was an advocate of free trade and a follower of James Mill, Huskisson, Ricardo, and Powlett Thomson. Mr. Morrison, though a self-educated man, in manhood fully made up for any deficiency in his early instruction. The formation of a library at all periods of his life was his favourite study ; all the subjects of inquiry to which he applied his strong common sense and his subtle mind he mastered, and he never conversed or wrote on principles or data on which he was not well informed. He was a lover of art, and forLued a large collection of valuable pictures of the old masters—ltalian and Flemish ; and Ea.'s° a gallery contain ing some excellent examples of the English schools of painting. Dr. Wangen, in his Treasures of Art in Great Britain, enume rates 30 pictures of Mr. Morrison in Harley-street as of the highest value ; and observes that " the specimens of costly plate, objects in ivory, Raphael ware, and other tasteful obj acts are quite in keeping with the other works of art in this fine collection.' The pictures at Basildon-park the German critic also describes in detail as "a collection of a very high class." If occasionally " taken in" he resold or exchanged. There was no trade of which he did not find out the trickery and guard himself against its consequences. It has been the fashion at times to decry a " new rich man," and especially the selC-created million aire. The class, like all classes, ha s its weaknesses and peculiarities of distinctive character ; but antiquity of descent in no Eur )pean country has a monopoly of position and ;social influence. From the lower class originally springs the higher order, and the former can supply the declining complement of the latter. Intelle 3t and industry will force themselves into the aren. of social com petition and the field of cosumpoli,tan adventure. All classes have their sepatate merits. and. demerits, all their different social habits and 1 canners.

There LAS been a rapid imr.rove ment since Wednesday. The relief felt in money affai►s is such as to create further inquiry for the shares of many of the banks now quoted." The New York Times of the 19th says : "Foreign exchange left off at 100 to 103 per cent. One or two leading banking houses settled credits at 103 per cent., at the same time refusing to draw their own bills better than 105. There were sales of transient drawn bills at 102 and to even as high as 103 per cent., with prime New York endorsements. The export of specie for the week, $120,000, against $154,000 odd for same period last year. We understand that some further difficulty has been em countered in paying the Californian draughts of Sather Church." The A ew York Journal of Commerce of the same date says : " The failure of the Grand Trunk Railway is reported. The week opens with a buoyant feeling in commercial circles, and a general disposition is manifested to make the best of our present position." N. H. Wolff and Co. had resumed payment. Lutcher Wrightson Bank was about to resume business. At a meeting of bankers at Cincinnati it was re solved to receive at par the notes of the New Orleans banks, and the notes of all banks also that are ban kaQe in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, and Baltimore. Tile Bank of New Orleans was paying some specie, and was about to resume eniirely. Messrs. Pa!ey and Hawkins were also about to resume. At New Orleans the bank presidents had agreed to take cartifiel checks ou the Citizens' BAtik in pAyuient of debts ; the Citizens' redeems its circula tion with specie, but not cieques of depositors. Among the reported suspensions are the follow . ing : At Providence.—The Dunneil Manufacturing Comp illy. At New York.—Winslow, Lanier, and Co. (tem porarily only) ; Frost and Forrest ; and T. Lau rence ; Sampson, Baldwin, and Co. At Boston.—W. Greelihow and Co., J. M. Hol d-n, George Forsaith, KIWI and Thinuton, J. W. Carter aid CA., W. P. Brooks. At St. Louis.—Tesson and Dangem. At New Orleans.—J. K. Doherty and Co., Rai quel and Co. At Loulsville.—The Jeffersonville branch of the State Bank of Indiana. At Augusta (Ga.) all the banks had suspended. The State banking institutions of St. Louis had opened a depository for the adjoining State, also for the currency of the New England States and the State of New York ; also for the notes of the Phila delphia, Pittsburg, and Baltimore banks. A large number of the heaviest merchants advertise to re ceive ad currency at par. There had been no sal-s of cotton for several days, and quotations w,re entirely nominal ; indeed there was nothing at New York to work on. The market for flour was dull ; with buyers for export still ho!dwg off, and but a moderate local and Eastern demand, prices receded sc. to 10c. per barrel. For wheat there were mere liberal offerings from all quarters. Holders of corn generally demanded 75c., but small parcels were sold at 73c. to 74c. ; uyers offered 72c. _ _ _ Money continues stringent, the best class paper still selling for 3 per cent, per month. Business, however, continues to revive gradually. Specie ,tinds at ft ow 1 per cent. to par, and has a down w srd tendency. The amount held by our city hanks is not less than 10 millions, and compared with their liabilities they are in a stronger position than they have been for years past, The Grocers' Bank to-day voted to go into liquidation, and the Bowery Bank having forfeited its rights under the banking law will probably have to follow the same course. It is rumoured that several of the banks here are preparing for an early resumption of specie payments. The announcement in a morning paper of the suspensi }n of Sampson and Baldwin, iron merchants, is untrue. (LATEST BY TELEGRAPH, VIA HALIFAX.) NEW YORK, OCT. 22. he steamships North Star, from Southampton, and the Kangaroo, from Liverpool, have arrived at this port. The news by the Europa has had an unfavour able influence here. Our money market is very unsettled and de cidedly more stringent. On the Stock Exchange to-day a considerable decline took place in all sorts of securities. The cotton market continues very quiet, and prices nominal. Flour has a declining tendency, but wheat is buoyant and tending upwards. Corn is also quite firm. NEW ORLEANS, OCT. 20, 1 P.M. Financial affairs in this city to-day were more gloomy, and money is very tight. Cotton has a tendency to decline ; the sales to-day reached 7,000 bales, at 9. to 10c. on middling. [ADVERTISEMENT,] —The possibility of abandoning medicine altogether is shown by the numerous extraordinary cures, without medicine, of indigestion (dyspepsia), flatulency, con stipation, nervous, bilious, and liver complaints, cough, asthma, consumption, and debility, effected by Da Barry's delicious Health -restoring Food. The following are not tn.; least remarkable :-- Revalenta Arabica of your greatest debtor s in res p ect to the Reval enta Cluubury, Shropshire, De c . 22, 1856.—Gentlemen,—Being one of I beg to offer you my testimony in its favour. For many years I suffered severely from chronic rheumatism, which at length produced a complication of nervous diseases that made me perfectly miserable. The most approved reme dies in medicine and diet were had recourse to in vain, the faculty of digestion was brought to a complete stand-still, and death must apparently have soon resulted had not my attention been providentially drawn to the Revalenta Ara bica. The very satisfactory character of the testimonials induced me to wake a trial of it ; even within a few days after I commenced using it some of the worst symptoms wore so much subdued as to enable me to take a sufficient quantity of food and drink without any injurious consequences. This I had not been able to do for four years previously, and dur ing the last two months of this time not in any measure ex cept at the imminent risk of m life, though the greatest care was used in the selection of what was taken; sleep had nearly forsaken me, this has now been restored to inn, and I am now, after having taken the Revalenta for some time, able to perform those functions of animal life which before had been nearly suspended in me. I have seen it produce f equally good effects in other cases among t s b o u m t e t o my i ka d tad Professore of received ex- JAMES c from A p o m fplaeinuds all lo the Dr. Harvey; ho b in ene l fit Supported by testimonials from t r he ha w v i e ueh recommended it would be to fill a pamphlet. —I I a m s h hc , l e & v rl ab • Chemistry, Dr. Andrew 13re ; D . r.
