MITCHELL, lIENDERSON, and MITCHELL, Solicitors for the Bill. Glasgow, November 11,1847. MA I A G E. 111 One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence ' or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Bomar and justice demand that health sheuldform anneal In the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief. and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accur ' ate . and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions In health and disease. It deservedly b re e qu o ires the closest attention and study, for what subject can in early life or froeminei and P t :st n : t r h e ced . importance tphysical capabilities of w n preservation ien ev e ry of manthe health, eh from their invariable con sequences, to a qualified Physiciantheap plying for relief.

Rowland, and which, from their merits and re putation, are the constant objects of fraudulent imita tion. The parties so counterfeiting concoct some trashy compounds resembling in appearance the preparations of Messrs. Rowland, and by adopting the very same names and copying the labels, bills, &c. &c. endeavour to pass them off as the "GENUINE ;" reckless of the injury which they will inevitably inflict on those who are de ceived into using them We would therefore advise all rtr , IF of Messrs. artielus, to purelin3e only of r espectable venders—and particularly to observe the Caution in their advertisements which frequently appear in our paper.

Kilmarnock, and Ayr, tialves, A i -Glasgow, The arrangements between the French and English Post-offices for the transmission of the mail twice a day between the capitals of the two countries, not coming into operations till the let of January next, the railway arrangements between Paris and Boulogne are for the present necessarily temporary. There are, however, three regular trains already established each way. Tra vellers leaving Boulogne reach the temporary terminus of the railway at Neufchatel in three-quarters of an hour; and within eight hours from that time they find themselves in Paris. The first train leaves Neufchatel at eight o'clock in the morning, and arrives at Paris at half past three in the afternoon; the second leaves at a quarter before three in the afternoon, and arrives in Paris at twenty minutes past ten at night, and the third (the snail train) leaves Neufchatel at five minutes past nine o'clock at night, and reaches Paris at five o'clock in the morning. From Paris the trains leave for Bou logne at eight o'clock in the morning, one o'clock inthe afternoon, and seven o'clock in the evening (the mail train), and arrive at Boulogne at a quarter to five in the afternoon, nine o'clock in the evening, and half-past four in the morning. After the Ist of January the arrange ments will be necessarily changed. From thaCday forth one mail will leave Boulogne, and another leave Calais for Dover, and no donbt additi4tia/ trains will then be established between Neufchatel and Paris. There was no inaugurative fete at the opening of the line on Monday, that ceremony being postponed till the completion of the line. Mr. Blount and Mr. Lewis Cu bitt, two of the directors, went on Sunday over the whole line to see that the arrangements were completed, and on Monday the trains began to ply with as much regu larity and absence of confusion as if the line had been at work for years. The line is throughout in excellent order. It is expected that the short section between Neuf chatel and Boulogne will be opened about the end of March. Some unexpected difficulties which have oc curred in the formation of the tunnel near Boulogne are the cause of the delay. But for that the whole line would have been open at the present time. Even as it is, however, the Boulogne and Amiens Railway brings London and Paris within little more than twelve hours' journey of each other. FLANDERS MAIL. OSTEND, Nov. 22.—For three days, great anxiety was entertained here respecting the fate of three mails from England, which have been expected in port since last Wednesday evening. The storms which have prevailed along the coast of Ostend, as well as along the English shores, occasioned their detention, and all three arrived together the evening before last. Bnussr.i.s, Nov. 22.—T0-day, at noon, the deputa tion of the Chambers had the honour of presenting to the King the address adopted yesterday by the Assembly, in reply to the speech from the throne. His Majesty afterwards left - Brussels for Ardennes, attended by M. Conway. CONSTANTINOPLE, NOV. 3.—THE CHOLERA.—As yet the cholera has not made much progress. Several cases, indeed, are reported, but only three or four have been confirmed. It is impossible to give an accurate account either of the number of cases or of deaths, for in mat ters of this kind the greatest disorder and irregularity prevails here. That the pestilence has not spread, may be mainly attributed to tho early setting in of the winter, which has checked the predisposition to disease which manifested itself a few weeks ago. The disease has this summer re-appeared in Persia, as we have already stated. It prevails now in Khoi and Saurns, as well as Zingnien, Shiraz, Bendertushier, and Tzerbeidshaw. It is likewise said to be in Ispahan, and great apprehen sions are entertained of it in Teheran. The heat is said to have been unusually great this summer in Persia, but the harvest was fine. During the night of the 6th Sep tember, at about a quarter before one, there was a severe shock of an earthquake, which lasted eight seconds. At the fire of the barracks at Scutari several soldiers hays lost their lives ; the damage is estimated at from five to eight million piastres. It is not known how the fire originated ; it is generally supposed to be from care lessness, though many persons affirm that it was the work o f ? an incendiary. That all the guards slept is more than probable. A very rigorous investigation is being made, and several superior officers are said to have been called upon to give an account ; two generals, a major.and acolonel have been suspended inconsequence, and they will probably remain so till the investigation is over and the matter forgotten. A company has been formed here to effect a speedy conveyance between Stamboul and Adrianople ; a few weeks since the elegant carriages which the company had received from Paris began running. But a heavy rain had fallen, and at the second or third, time the carriage remained sticking fast in the mud. The trifling fact had been overlooked that, in order to ride in comfort in Turkey, it is indispensable not merely to have elegant European carriages, but good European roads. BERLIN, Nov. 19.—PAPAL BULL.—A bull of Pius VII , entitled, "De A'alute Animarum," which regulated the Roman Catholic affairs in Russia, established (in concert with the Government, which at that time in serted it in the Bulletin de lois), that the dotation of the Catholic clergy in Russia should be raised from the forest belonging to the States. This promise has not hitherto been fulfilled, notwithstanding the solicitations of Pope Gregory VIL The present Pope has brought the question forward again. Re has addressed a pressing demand to the Prussian Cabinet on the subject, and the Prinee Archbishop of Breslau has been charged to con duct this affair as Pontifical Commissioner. It is thought that the King of Prussia is unfavourable to the demand of the Pope. BERLIN, Nov. 19.—POLISH TRIALS.—Nearly all the counsel who had come to Berlin for the purpose of de fending the accused Poles have left our capital, where their presence is no longer needed. Many strangers also have left, although all are looking forward to the expiration of the next fortnight with the greatest pos sible interest; the sentences will then .be passed upon which the fate and happiness of many will depend.

RIO DE JANEIRO, OCT. 1, 1847.--REVIEW OF THE MARKETS FROM 1 7TH TO 30TH SEPT. - Business has been very restriced as regards imports. The sales of Coffee have been to a fair extent, and the transactions in exchange have been considerable. _ _ IMPORTS.—The arrivals with merchandise consist of vessels with assorted cargoes:-5 coals ; 3 dry goods ; 1 flour; 2 flour and dry goods ; 4 flour and sundries ; 2 hides ; 1 surnter and sundries ; 4 salt; 4 wine and sundries. ExroaTs.—Coffee—After the arrival of the packet the market began to give way, and prices declined 100 a 150 reis. and at reduced quotations some important transac tions occurred. The total sales of the month may be estimated at about 140,000 bags. HlDES.—Arrived: 7,600 Rio Grande; 5,400 River Plate market day, and sales limited to 7,000 of the former sorts, and of the stock 54,000 Rio Grande, 50,000 River Plate. Freights received during the past week, but the subsequent arrivals have made the market less firm. MONEY MARKET.—For specie prices are generally lower, and the markets very dull.—Rio Mercantile Jour nal, Oct. 2. WINDSOR, TUESDAY EVENING.—There is no pro bability- that her Majesty and the Court will leave Osborne before the last week in December. The extensive architec tural ornaments, and the planting of many thousand trees, which have been delayed until now, that they may have the benefit of royal supervision, will alone occupy a fortnight or three weeks. CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY.—The whole expected c f t h e de remaindert to b e oat h b y of the works upon this line, now completed as far as Bangor, will be inspected this week ' by Mr. R.

COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, TUESDAY.--The Queen and Prince Albert, accompanied by their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, the Princess Royal, the Princess Alice, and the Princess Helena, left the Castle at a quarter-past nine o'clock this morning for her Majesty's marine residence, Osborne, Isle of Wight. The royal suite consisted of the Marchioness of Douro, Lady in waiting, a Maid of Honour in waiting, Colonel the Hon. C. B. Phipps, Major-General Bowles, Lord Alfred Paget, and Captain the Hon. A. 11. Gordon. The august party occupied four carriages and Jour, and was escorted by a detachment of the Royal Regi ment of Horse Guards, commanded by the Ron. Lewis 0. Grant.

A deputation from the Birkenhead Dock Company, consisting of Baron de Goldsmid, Mr. R. Garnett, Mr. J. Bailey, Mr. Maynard, and Mr. Bendel, had an inter view with the Commissioners of her Majesty's Woods and Forests, yesterday, at their office in Whitehall-place. A deputation from the Dock Commissioners of Birken head, consisting of Mr. Wain, Mr. Pike, and Mr. Cele, had also an interview yesterday with the Commissioners of her Majesty's Woods and Forests. Mr. Glyn had an interview with Sir George Grey yesterday. The Attorney-General had also an inter view yesterday with the Right Hon. Baronet at the Home-office. A deputation, consisting of Dr. Bowring, M.P., Mr. Tynman, and Mr. Daniel, had an interview yesterday with the Right Hon. Edward Strutt, at the office of the Commissioners of Railways, at the Board of Trade. BANKRUPTCY and INSOLVENCY LAWS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SLR,—In your report of the speech which you attri bute to me at the meeting held yesterday at the London Tavern, on the subject ot the bankrupt-laws, I find the following passage.—" The learned gentleman expressed his disapproval of the present law, and strongly approved of arrest at the instance of the Court of Bankruptcy, because it was prompt, silent, and sure. The seizure of property was often attended with expense and difficulty, but the seizure of the body was alway s safe, because every creditor knew his debtor." You will, I am sure, be equally sorry and surprised to learn that in attributing the expression of those senti ments to me you have been grossly imposed upon. I made no allusion whatever to the law ot arrest, nor to the seizure of person or property. Not only is every line, butevery.syllable, and every letter of the passage, a pure invention; nor do I believe that any such trash was uttered by any one else at the meeting. No such passage is to be found in the reports of any of the morn ing papers, and it seems difficult to suppose that the misrepresentation can be accidental. I take it for granted, therefore, that you have been imposed upon. I feel the more annoyed at having such opinions im puted to me, inasmuch as they are directly opposed to those I entertain. I decidedly object to the restoration of the power of arrest as exercised under the old system. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, Reform Club, Nov. .3. ii. - FoRSTER. [By the accidental transposition of a few lines of the report in question, an abstract of a letter from Mr. Com missioner Fane, which was read at the meeting, found its way into the speech of the Hon. Member for Hull. We may remark that our reporter, owing to the insuf ficient accommodation provided .at the meeting for the press, was compelled to frame his report standing on a side-board close a c s lo i s t e is to th t r h o e ug d h o o o u r t: a s n o d me wi e t x h ou h s is e ba i cktothe speakers. Had the entire report been incorrect i ns t ea d . m ght have been claimed for it on this ground.] THE Two DOUBLE RETURNS.—At a meeting held at Manchester, on Monday evening, it was announced that Mr. Cobden had elected to sit as representative of the West Riding, and that Mr. C. Villiers, with many ex pressions of grateful acknowledgment to the electors of South Lancashire, declined to desert his former consti tuents of Wolverhampton. Writs will accordingly be issued for new elections for South Lancashire and Stockport. TowN AND COUNTRY.—Mrs. Trollope's new novel "Town and Country," just published, is said to be a remark able exposition of fashionable life in the gallant days of the Prince Regent, in which the writer, with the graphic talent that has made many of her previous works so popular, has introduced some remarkable incidents, the scene of which is laid at the Brighton Pavilion. These pictures of a private circle, perhaps the most exclusive ever known in society, can scarcely fail of rendering " Town and Country" one of the most attractive of the author's productions. RESTORATION OF THE HAIR.—To Messrs. A Rowland and Son, 20, Hatton-garden, London. Linton, Cambridge, October 25, 1847. Gentlemen,—A striking in stance of the efficacy of your Macassar Oil in the restora tion of the hair has just come under my notice. The person alluded to is a young man named Hayluck, of Ashdon, near this place, whose entire head of hair came off by some unac countable means. He purchased of me several different popular preparations, which he regularly and faithfully used, but without effecting the least apparent change. At last I advised him to try a bottle of your Macassar Oil; and, on Friday last, he communicated to me the pleasing intelli gence of the reappearance of a thick head of hair. You can make what use you please of this, and refer any in quirers to yours respectfully, J. Sergeant, bookseller, &c. *** Beware of Spurious Imitations]—The words "Row land's Macassar Oil " are on the wrapper of each genuine bottle. Sold at 20, Hatton-garden, London, and by Che mists and Perfumers. On Tuesday, the 23d instant, it General Assembly of the Academicians was held at the Royal Academy of Arts, in Trafalgar-square, for the purpose of electing a Secretary and a Professor of Painting, both offices vacant by the death of Henry Howard, Esq., 8.A. , when John Prescott Knight, Esq., R.A., was unanimously elected . Secre ry e , e an ed d Charles Robert Leslie, Esq., R A., was unanimously el t Professor of Painting. A CLERGYMAN OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.--A benevolent Pa, stor residing in Belfast (whose n ame is withheld b y his own desire) was applied to by a poor woman of his pa rish who had been afflicted for four years with an awfully bad leg with sixteen wounds, and so extremely painful, that she could not place her foot on the ground. Feel ing for her poverty and sufferings, this humane gentle man presented her with a supply of Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which soundly healed her leg in about five weeks, although she had been in the Dublin Hospital for seven months, and had consult e d several medical men inr Ireland.—Sold by all druggists, and at Professor Hol loway's establishment, 244, Strand, London. HEROIC CONDUCT.—A Watermanw named Peak, ed, nint while employed yest er d ay at Roff' holding a rope att ac h e d to a vessel 13n th h e a r r iv r' e l r \ : by fell off the barge on which he was standing and immediately sunk to the bottom. In a minute or two after he rose to the surface on the other side of the barge, completely exhausted, when a gentleman, whose name is not known by any person who witnessed his praiseworthy conduct, jumped into the water, and succeeded in bringing the drowning man on shore. Peak is still alive, and it is to be hoped will recover, although so long undesr the water. Eve r y att en ti on h as been paid to hi m at Mrs. Gosling ' s tavern, whither he was conveyed on bein g rescuedcr by the stranger, who proceeded to town the first opportunity. leather.

DUBLIN, Nov. 22.—N0 further murders or very seri ous outrages are announced in the accounts from the provinces, to day. There is, however, a very alarming account of the state of the county of Sligo, where, ac cording to the Sligo Champion, some of the principal gentry have been served with threatening notices. Letters, received this day from Nenagh, state that there are no hopes of the recovery of Mr. R. Bayly, recently fired at by assassins. All the worst symptoms had set in. There is no positive confirmation of the murder of the sub-agent of the Marquis of Ormonde, of Kilcash, county of Tipperary, on Tuesday last; but, unfortunatelN there is no ground to doubt the intelligence already communicated. - The Duke of Modena has issued an edict against all assemblages of the people. This edict orders all offences of leze-majesty committed by any such assemblages to be tried before a court-martial, encourages informers by pro mising secrecy and rewards, and punishes concealment with imprisonment and exile. .DEATII OF THE ELECTOR OF HESSE.—At half past twelve, on the 20th instant, his Royal Highness William 11., Elector of Hesse, departed this life at Frank fort, after a few days illness. The deceased was born on the 28th of July, 1777, and succeeded to the electorate cn the 27th of February, 1821. He is succeeded by his son, Prince Frederick William, born on the 20th of August, 1802, add who, since 1831, thared the reins of government with his father.

The unfortunate woman lived at No., 8 Molyneux•street, Edgeware-road, and had been a lady's maid, but of late she had taken to needlework as her only means of sup port; for the last three months she had suffered great privations in consequence of the scarcity of employment, but she was compelled at length to seek parochial assist ance, and on making application to the parish of Mary lebone she was allowed 2s. 6d. per week, which continued for a month, when it was taken off. During the pre vious week she was without food for several days. On Friday night she borrowed a shilling of her landlady, and on Saturday she called on her sister, living at No. 11, North-row.

JEWISH DISABILITIES.—The following petition, "To the Honourable the Commons of Great Britain and Ireland, from the English Presbyterians of the county of Chester, in half-yearly meeting assembled, at Stockport, on the 20th of October, 1847," has been forwarded to Lord J. Russell for presentation :—" That your petitioners, as Pro testant Dissenters, hold religious liberty—their own and others'—to be a sacred right, the violation of which neither prescription nor any fancied expediency can justify. That your petitioners have rejoiced to behold the great advances made during the past 20 years by the country and the Le gislature towards the adoption of the great principle, that a man's religious opinions ought not to affect his civil privi leges. That your petitioners have heard with great satis faction, that the large, varied, and important constituency of the city of London has returned to your Honourable House, as one of its representatives, a gentleman of the Hebrew faith. That your petitioners believe one of the requirements exacted from the Members of your Honourable House to be a solemn declaration, or oath, which no conscientious Jew can make. That the continuance of this exaction imposes on a meritorious and patriotic class of men an unjustifiable disability, and is an unnecessary interference with the free choice by the people of their representatives in !Parliament. Wherefore your petitioners humbly but earnestly pray your Honourable House to remove this last barrier of intolerance, and to admit the Jew, equally with the Christian, to all the privileges of Parliament, when returned by the free vo i ces of his countrymen. And your petitioners will ever pray, & e PRIVATE BUSINEI3S.—The third report select committee of the House of C ommons, pousiness of inted to appoint inquire as to the mode of cond uctin g the private the House, and also as to the e xpenses attending the ob taining or opposing private B i l l s,interesting and important character, was issued yesterday.
