" Mr. Tilke is one of those individuals who, born with a wooden spoon in their mouths, have, by the alchemy of thrift and industry, converted it into silver. He began the world as a jour. neyrnan baker, but every intermission from the labour of the knead. ing trough, was devoted to the pursuit of medical science. Any man who makes such unceasing efforts as he has done to allevia e the sufferings of humanity, ift entitled to honourable mention." — Times, Nov. 3. " In this volume we have the autobiographical memoir of a man, whose career in life has been a chequered one, but who, by sheer dint of perseverance, and showing a gallant front to misfortune, had the satisfaction of seeing all his efforts crowned with success. The Memoir is an interesting one, as showing what may be accom plished by energy and good conduct ; and it is written in a cheerful and benevolent strain. As a Medical Herbalist, Mr. Tilke has effected a variety of surprising cures in obstinate cases of gout, rheumatism, and indigestion. His mode of treating some of these diseases is fully described in the course of his Memoir, and he has added reasons explanatory of his system, so that he who runs may read."—The Sun, Nov. 5.

SIGHT AND HEARING. 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY, (Opposite the York Hotel), and 76, KING WILLIAM-STREET, BANK OF ENGLAND. THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS, OPTICIANS and AURISTS to the ROYAL FAMILY, 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY, by which thousands of deaf persons have been greatly bene fited, is the size of a seven-shilling piece, and whey fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more perceptible than having a piece of wool in its place, by which the faintest whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defective VISION is brought to nature by the use of newly invented SPECTACLE LENSES; immediately they are placed before weak and imperfect eye-sight, either by day or candle light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen wit h great distinctness ;by the use of which both the sight and hearing become much improved. The Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS disclaim all con nexion with persons of the same name, and the sale of am ber spectacles ; the pernicious use of amber spectacles icing now well known to the public, and the vendor being aware of it. he has therefore altered their name, by leaving out the word " Amber," and calling them " Patent. Spectacles." Those which he terms " Patent Spectacles" are no other than those of amber ; the history and destructive use of that mate rial for Spectacles to imperfect vision is fully and most satis factorily explained by the undermentioned scientific authority : From the " Dictionary of Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure, 'y M.D., F. R S., &c., &c. -' Amber is an indurated vegetattle juice, and not produced by the laws of crystallisation, but by the same causes which influence the mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in it. Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to such an extent as to explode into frag ments ; the workmen, too, are subject to nervous tremors in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they encounter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electrics ; amber grows with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a soft nature when exposed to warmth, that it swells, bubbles up, and will burn away with flame." The above Dr. Ure's statements are further confirmed by Sir D. Brewster and Pliny, as also by Parks and Hems, on Che mistry. The destructive effects of such a material for specta cles, to imperfect vision, may be ascertained at any respectable Optician's in London. The Messrs. Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses are not constructed of such a material ; but which are very supe rior, and bring back at once dimness of sight and imperfect vision to its original and natural state. These Spectacles, and very small Voice Conductors for deaf persons, are r.ly to be had at their establishments, 39, Albemarle-street (opposite the York Hotel), and 76, King William-street, Bank.

The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility, Gonorrhoea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva lent, are treated upon these unerring principles which have in sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of nubile pa tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be their future exertion to maintain. Letters, containing an enclosure will be answered by return and patients, however distant, will be cerresnonded with until recovered. MORISON'S MEDICINES.

On Monday afternoon, as two watermen of Rotherhithe were proceeding down the river in their boat, they discovered the body of a man fleeting in the water near Southwark-bridge. There were no marks of violence on his person. He had on a suit of black clothes, but there was nothing about him that could lead to a discovery of who he was. The body was conveyed to Mr. Down's, undertaker, Great Guildford -street, to be owned and await a coroner's inquest. GOLCONDAH.—The fortress of Golcondah lies about five miles to the north- west of the city of Hyderabad, and is the place of safety where the treasures of the Nizam are commonly deposited. Though haring no par ticular claims to be considered a place of any great strength, it is so jealously guarded, that a European is, under no pretext, ever suffered to enter its precincts; and instances have occurred of parties of officers who had come to spend the day anwupt the neighbouring t9val.”, having uecn ra,l at trove the of the fo:t for I,Avitz pruum - ,1 .! F _ proach them too nearly.—Napier's Scenes and Spores, FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. (From the Morning Chronicle). As the apprehension of an European war passes away, an argument, which had been created out of that apprehension in favour of the Corn-laws passes away also. Already had indications been given, in Tnry journals and at agricultural dinners, of the ad vantage which the food monopoly would have taken of that dire calamity. Already had the demand been made, with a solemn face and an insidious purpose, whether this was a time to cripple agriculture, and render the nation's supply of food dependent on foreign countries with which we might soon be engaged in deadly conflict ; or whose friendliness might be made unavailing so long as their produce was liable to be in tercepted by an uctive enemy. It was willingly for gotten that when Napoleon was lord, of the Continent, and affected to blockade Great Britain, he could not stop the ingress of foreign corn. The alarmists were ready only to see the ocean covered with armed French steamers, and famine (famine to be averted by a bread tax !) reducing our multitudes to absolute starvation. A minute dissection of this fallacy has now happily become not worth while. It was stifled in its birth. The current of events has passed over it. Monopoly will not be accommodated with slaughter to trade upon. The horison clears, and the phantom disappears. But although the sophism died a prema ture death, the fact that it had begun to be urged, an d that there were w ere symptoms o regarding it with favour, and of pushing it forward into the front of the bread-tax battle, may as well be " remembered in its epitaph." The readiness with which such a notion was put forth, skews the spirit in which a war would have been supported by the "Tory party. It would, in all probability, have received their general support ; but they were already looking a-head to see what they could make out of it. The honour of the country, the aggressions of France, the balance of power, the sacrifice of party hostility to national energy ; all these would have been in their mouths, and bread-tax in their hearts. We are not making such an imputation gratuitously. The avidity with which so flimsy a show of argument was pounced upon, is sufficient justification ; and little as the argu ment may be worth in itself, a state of warfare is al ways so unreasoning a period, that doubtless the peo ple's cause, and their rightful expectation, would have been damaged thereby. All reform stops in war time ; and although least of all should that sort of reform be suspended which tends to give the workman the loaf he earns, yet even this case might not, and probably would not, have formed any exception to the rule. We cannot be too thankful that the occasion is not afforded. The Corn-law Repealers may press onward in their pur pose without being stigmatised (however untruly and un justly) as co-operators with a foreign enemy for the degra dation of the country. Not that, even under the disastrous infliction of an European war, there would have been any soundness in the pretext of the monopolists. No war could bar from us :hose supplies of food which the proprietors of the soil render necessary, by failing to produce a sufficient quantity. It has been remarked by a Tory Contemporary that diplomacy has changed its character to a considerable extent, and that the in terests of nations have now an allowed weight, in ques tions of peace and war, which formerly they scarcely possessed, or only in subordination to the purposes and passions of Sovereigns. Future wars cannot be carried On in defiance of their unpopularity. It has become requisite not only to fill up regiments, and put ships in commission, but to arm the nation's mind. For a very short time, would the people of England be willing to bear war and bread-tax together. For the former they would require a demonstrated necessity ; for the latter they are satisfied that no necessity can be demonstrated. The excitement of national honour, nay, even the abhor rence of being beaten, fail to tell upon empty stomachs. The monopolists were deceived in their calculation. War might stop reform, and put the Corn-law question in abeyance, in the Legislature ; but what would be, meanwhile, the condition of the country ? The Corn laws visit us in peace with one of the worst curses of war. Invasion we have little cause to dread. The death of gallant individuals is a heavy loss to their families and friends ; but the calamity is private rather than public, and affects a comparatively small circle. The national bitterness of war is chiefly in the effect on the price of food, and on the means of employment by which the millions obtain their food. As much of this as they can, the monopolists realise at all times. The duty cuts off supplies more efficiently than hostile fleets or swarms of privateers. It is, itself, the most atro cious kind of privateering, plundering the many for the few, to be eluded by no skill, and baffled by no bravery. The evils of war are always partial ; but Corn-laws produce the mischief of war with all the world. They make us dependent on a power which has shown itself hostile to the interests of the comtpu nit'', and which never relaxes or relents, The popuia tion is in the co ndition in which it i s sa id that war would place us ; even were it t o b e war w i t h every nation on the face of the earth. In all circumstances the operation of the Corn-laws is unmitigated evil ; they despoil war of its vigour and peace of its plenty. We see by the local papers that attempts are making, on the part of the Tory Magistrates, to impede the Anti-Corn-law lectures. There is a good deal of ex c i tement on this quest i on in Wilt shire. The monopolists having employed a Mr. Justins in that county to persuade the population of the great benefit they de r iv e d from having their bread taxed, he h as b een followed by Mr. S i dney; Smith on the other '.de, and a strong impression seems to have been produced by his eloquent and popular lec tures. The Town-hall at Caine had been granted to Mr. Smith by the Mayor, and the first of a series of three lectures, the May or himself presiding, delivered to assembled crowds. At the recent municipal elec tions, a Tory was chosen to succeed in the Mayoralty. The new functionary immediately rescinded the grant of the Town-hall for the remaining lectures of the series. The effect has been yet more to stimulate the enthu siasm of the people. But the circumstance may warn the public against under -rating the importance of muni cipal appointments. Wherever Toryism has power, little or much, to the extent of that power no public right is safe. The worst laws against the freedom of discussion flowed from the same polluted fountain as the tax on bread. (From the Morning Advertiser.) We insert elsewhere the latest news received from Syria. They are of the most favourable character, and are so amply detailed, both in the Gazette and in other means of communication, that it is unnecessary to enter upon a special summary of them. Commodore Napier appears to be the worthy successor of the ever -to-be remembered star of England, the immortal Nelson, and to realise what we prophesied the other day—that al though the great men of past days had either ylen into their dotage, or been carried to " that bourne from which no traveller returns," England w as im mortal in the race of her heroes by sea and la n d ; and that the occasion was only wanted to show th at she could in her might and glory make her enemi es trem ble, and her doubtful friends succumb to h er Wishes.

(TUESDAY EVENING.) TlMES.—Private letters from Lisbon contain further instances of the neglected state of financial affairs in Por tugal. The Custom-house clerks, it appears, take in the shape of gratuities about 80i- per cent, on their annual pay, which gratuities (falsely so called) are claimed under the sanction of the Minister of Finance. The number of persons employed is said to be excessive, and the " gra tuities," while a great impediment to trade, do not bring anything whatever to the revenue. As for the internal consolidated debt, the price of it is said to be considerably on the decline. The various mixed operations that have lately taken place, and the recent issues of 5 per cent. stock, have brought more public securities into the mar.. ket than cautious capitalists are willing to purchase. It has been remarked at the Portuguese Court that twenty nine noblemen have nit yet paid their respects there, and these are from among the former partisans of Don Miguel. This has caused some uneasiness at the Palace. The monks resident at Lisbon, who were driven from their convents, and deprived of the property belonging to them, have petitioned the Govern ment, being reduced to great distress by the non-payment of the pension that was assigned to them. The number of these at Lisbon is 600, besides 2,200 in the provinces, who are equally destitute; and it is considered that the appearance of these unhappy persons has an unfavourable influence on the mind of the lower orders, wbo are less willing to pay taxes. when they perceive so little anxiety on the part of the Government to appropriate its reve nues to the discharge of its just obligations. A negotia tion has commenced between Portugal and Spain, respect ing certain modifications of the import duties in the latter country. Spain has consented to reduce these duties at its ports ow cotton, and some other articles of merchan dise, coming in Spanish ships from the four ports of Ge noa, Marseilles, Bordeaux, and Gibraltar. The Portu guese Minister desires that Lisbon may be also one of the privileged ports. The Portuguese import duties on crockery and porcelain are, it is said, to be altered to the following rates : " On common, I,6oo_reis . per arroba of 321 b. " On common painted with two different colours, 3,200 reis per 321 b. " On plain transparent porcelain, 4,800 reis per 321 b. " On transparent porcelain with more than one colour , 6,090 reis per 321 b. " On gilt, or painted with many colours, or drawings of places, views, &c., 12,800 reis per 321 b." The President of the republic of Venezuela has issued a decree dated Caraccas, the 16th of September last, ac cording to which the republic acknowledges 281 per cent. as her share of the foreign debt contracted with Colombia. It is decreed that the new bonds for the first capital shall bear an interest of 2 per cent. per annum for the seven suc ceeding ears, which is then to he annually increased per cent. till it reaches 6 per cent. The dividends arc to be paid in London every six months. With respect to the arrears of such of the interest as Venezuela acknowledges to be due from her, on the same principle as that which recognizes the division of the capital, as well as those arrears which form the part of the:6 per cent. left unpaid for the several succeeding years, according to the proposed ar rangement, bonds are to be issued at 1001. per cent. on the capital, in such a manner that the new capital shall rise to an amount equal to the first one already acknow ledged. These bonds are not to bear interest till the Ist of October, 1852, after which they are to bear 1 per cent, for the first year, with an annual increase of 4 per cent. until it reaches 5 per cent.. which will be their maximum. The delivery of the new Venezuelan bonds is to be en dorsed on the present Colombian bonds, provided the con version be riot effected on the part of the Governments of New Granada and Ecuador. POST.—Money is tolerably easy in Lombard -street, the discount of good commercial paper being effected at the rate of five per cent. per annum. At the Stock Ex change the pressure which was felt late in the afternoon yesterday has been in no degree mitigated, but rather the contrary. A leading broker gave as much as seven per cent. for accommodation frcm day to day, and this to a considerable amount, on the deposit of Exchequer bills— a proof, we should say, that the reduction made in the cir culation and securities of the Bank of E ng l an d aga i nst the withdrawal of deposits and bullion upon th e l arge scale exhibited in the last returns is regarded as the pre cursor of a more stringent course of action, the exchanges being, meanwhile, low, and not to be depended upon from one post day to another. The opening quotations for the foreign funds, the half monthly settlement in which took place yesterday, have not been maintained. In the absence of news, prices are apparently affected solely by the unsettled state of the Money Market, and the prospect there is of the early in. troduction of some other loans, the effect of which will, of course, be to absorb capital, and to reduce the competi tion for the bonds already in circulation. The Railway Share Market has been further depressed, not only by the reports of accidents, and of the inquests to which those accidents give rise, in the newspapers, but by a sinister rumour which prevails that Government are about to lay an impost upon this class of property. That well-intentioned, possibly, but unenlightened Nobleman, Earl Spencer (when Lard Althorp), no sooner saw that the system of steam navigation was brought to something like perfection, than he attempted to come down upon it with a tax--a tax, it' we remember rightly, of five per cent. Ili. Lordship was, however, mot. supported in the indul gence of the sort of liberalty the fruit of which would have been to throw a damp upon the exercise of the mental powers as applied to scientific objects and inventive enter prise ; so that his notable plan for raising supplies through that ill-selected medium was no sootier conceived than abandoned. The railway establishments, although accidents have lately occurred upon some of the lines, which appear to be the result of carelessness alone, for which a specific remedy should be applied, are in the position that the newly-intro duced system of steam navigation was. Millions upon millions have been expended in the development of their capabilities, the benefits of which the nation is now reap ing. Would it not, then, be highly impolitic—highly unjust—to visit them with the blighting influence of a Government tax ? They have the countenance of Parlia ment—.the most decided and unhesitating countenance that could be given—and we do not certainly anticipate anj thing so extravagant as that the legislative power should stultify its own proceedings by sanctioning any proposition of the nature of that which seems to be apprehended. A tax will tend rather to legalize than to prevent accidents. H ERA L D.—Although considerable exertions are mak ing to bolster up the Funds, it would seem to be a matter of extreme difficulty even to keep them at existing quota. Some of the Foreign Securities show a little improve ment in the quotations. In Dutch Stocks it may be as cribed to a natural re-action upon the late decline, as the interchange in stock transactions is so speedy, and the traffic so regular, between Amsterdam and this city, that a difference between the two of 1-16 constitutes a profit for transmission of the bonds to whichever of the markets is most favourable for the operation. The money pressure has been felt more strongly in the Stock Exchange to-day, and as much as the rate of 7 per sent. has been given for it on the security of Exchequer Bills for a few days. Although accounts have been pub lished of the stringent and oppressive effects of Bank of England restrictive policy in the manufacturing districts of the north, and particularly in Manchester, it may be affirmed that that' have been considerably exaggerated. In lieu of 8 or 10 per cent, being paid for discounts, as asserted , it may bo st a t e d as t h e resu l t o f p r i va t e inquiries in that place and on the faith of statements to be depended upon, that not more than 6 per cent, has been demanded or exacted for creditable paper. It may be that for some of a more doubtful class, but which never theless in a better condition of money affairs, would have passed muster, as much as 7 per cent, has been paid, but the instances must be rare, and assuredly none can be cited from actual knowledge. For Manchester, and other large towns, are not like this metropolis, where there is a market for all sort of bills at all ranges of discounts from sto 50 per cent. In the country one kind of practice only is known. If a bill is deemed eligible it is discounted at the rate current on the day ; if not of a suitable class it will not be taken at any rate of discount offered. Excessive rates of discount would be regarded as usury on all sides, and notwithstanding the abolition of the usury laws, the moral feeling against what was once considered usury by law is still almost as strong against it as ever, now that the laws have been repealed and that usury is legalised. That man's character would be damaged who should exact usurious interest, and his credit destroyed who should submit to it. The case is different in this city, where all rates of dis count varying with every quality of bill paper presented, are current, asked and paid day by day. But here there exists greater facilities for the transaction of such kind of business, and, where reserve is desirable, the secret is less likely to transpire. There is no doubt that, at present, the Bank screw is very tightly applied, as indeed the Bank averages published and commented on in the Herald of Monday will show. In proof as much as 9 per cent. for a short period was paid for a considerable sum t? -day by parties of respectability in trade in the City. This cannot of course be a solitary instance, for many people of equal and inferior standing would have, in case of need, , to pay as much or more. It is understood that Bank actionis, or will be, more strictly enf or ced against paper, enown or suspected to Ue, of loan or stock-jobbin,ts' origin, and against parties reported to be connected with that sort of speculation, even if not against bankers or discount houses more specially understood to advance upon foreign stocks and whose chief business may lie in Stock- Exchange ac counts. CHRON IC L E.— We understand that a portion of the Belgian Loan taken by the Messrs. Rotbschilds is ex pected to be brought out here to-morrow. The original amount of the Ican, we believe, was about 1,200,0001., of which 600,000/. was taken in Brussels, and the remain ing portion to be divided between London and Paris. The price, we hear, is 97f. SUN.—The Foreign Exchanges were a shade higher to-day. On Paris the rate was 25f. 55c. to 57ic.; on Hamburgh 13 53 to and on Amsterdam 12 2i to 4. There was again an extreme scarcity of money in the Stock Exchange to-day, and very high rates of interest were paid for large amounts on the security of Exche quer Bills—as much as 10 per cent. was asked and given, and the consequence of this tightness was a de w es , inn is th!2 vqlue of the unfunded debt from 2e. pre -1 1, I to 1, , protniiim anal di:“.!oint , II tH , increased dearness of money on the Stock Exchange should have the effect of checking that extensive speen • lation which has recently been carried on in the foreign securities we shall see little cause to regret it. Hitherto it has been the complaint that the commercial interests alone were pinched by the Bank of England screw, and as loans could he made at 3 per cent. on stock, while 6 per cent. was demanded out of doors, it is by no means to be wondered at that such an assertion should have been made. Now, however, we find money full as dear among the speculators, as it is with the discount brokers. For present delivery Consols have realized 89 to 894, and for the Account 89i to 89k. Yesterday there was no difference between the quotations for immediate de livery, and that for the 26th inst. To-day there was a continuation for the nine days of full 1-16, or say even k per cent. India Bonds were at I3s. discount. A parcel of India Stock was taken by the broker acting for the Accountant-General of the Court of Chancery at 239 ; Bank Stock was at 160 ; the New Three and-a-half per Cents, realised 981 to i ; and the Re duced Three per Cents. 88 to 4. The Foreign securities closed steadily. Spanish Actives at 24i ; Portuguese New at 361; Mexican at 0 9i ; French Three per Cents, at 77f. 75c. ; and,Coloni bian at 26.

The following is the official return of the exports of bullion from the Port of London, for the week ending Thursday last -- Silver Coin to liamburgh Silver Coin to Rotterdam Silver Coin to Belgium Silver Coin to British West Indies Silver Bars to Rotterdam 64,529 oz. Gold Bars to Rotterdam TO THE WATERLOO-BRIDGE PROPRIETORS. GENTLEMEN,—The horse-toll, although diminished beyond half, yields more at present than the full toll used to give, and yet don't bring any new kind of pas sengers, therefore a halfpenny foot-toll would exceed the penny-toll, although only the same kind of passengers came ; but that lower payment would b ring the work people, a new class, to our bridge, which must go forth i❑ all weathers—which don't leave London when Par liament is prorogued—which is far more numerous than all the rest of society. Yet this advantage of the reduction does not remove the undue influence which sways most of your Commit tee against it ; I therefore take the liberty of exhort ing you to attend the December assembly to protect not only the public convenience but your own property, which is more valuable than you seem to imagine. There are nearly 700 persons interested therein, yet hardly one-twentieth of them attend ; and Lucullus himself was foiled when the army refused to act. So clear to me is the advantage, that if you agree to reduce the foot-toll one-halt for eight months from the 7th of next December, I will engage to make the re venue therefrom equal to its amount in the correspond ing period from December, 1839, in case the reduction diminishes that revenue, on condition that I shall re ceive the overplus, if the revenue is more instead of less. My property in the bridge is ample security for this offer ; therefore the annuitants cannot lose, and may gain very considerably. As to the assertion at our Committee-board, that the Lord Chancellor has declared his intention to forbid the reduction, it is impossible that he can have so deter mined on a fair statement of the matter ; and the fear of riots, as in the year 1780, if it became necessary to raise the toll again, is another bugbear adapted to frighten weak men, who forget that we have a well managed police, and that instead of the inert Lord North* (who lost America by his admired oratory), we have vigorous statesmen both in office and out of office, ready to patronise the bridge-owners, if they dis played more regard for the general welfare. The Spaniards are ridiculed for having a grand bridge, with very little water running under it ; but our magnificent bridge, the admiration of Canova, the me morial of Waterloo, is ridiculed by foreigners for the paucity of people walking over it ; and what should be a national honour, is made by us a national stigma. Either I am an idiot in thinking so different from our Committee, or else its majority, who seldom attend the meetings, are grossly misled in deciding (so contrary to reason and proof) against the advantage of the bridge owners, the convenience of the public, and the vital in. terests of the workpeople. I remain, Gectiemen, Your obliged and obedient humble servant, THOMAS MORGAN. * General Howe had orders not to kill many of the Americans, and Captain Stuart had led his company within the American lines at the battle of Brooklyn so that all Washington's army might have been destroyed, when he was ordered off! 1 1 CAPTAIN REYNOLDS AND THE ELEVENTH HUSSAdS, TO THE EDITOR OF THE SIM% Sts,—As I did not intrude upon you with any observa tions during the Reynolds and Cardigan scribbling mania, I trust that you will not refuse me a small space of your Paper to make a few remarks now the mania has sub sided. Last week I observed a letter either in The Sun or Chronicle, in which it was stated that when Captain Reynolds is restored to his rank in the army, he must necessarily return to the 11th, as it would be degrading to the officers of any other regiment to associate with a man that could write such a cringing, rod-kissing, slave like letter as the one he addressed to the public through the medium of the Times. I must bee leave to differ from the writer of that letter, and will boldly assert, without fear of successful contradiction, that Capt. R. A. Reynolds is a fair sample of the British officer. They are at all times ready to fight either friend or foe in order to assert their net over well-defined notions of honour, but whether it is in consequence of mental idleness occasioned by the little necessity there is for them to think for themselves, or from any other unknown cause, the fact is undeniable, that they are not, nor ever have been, celebrated either at home or abroad for any very remarkable power of distin guishing between right and wrong. That the majority of British officers are tyrants to their subordinates, and cring ing abject slaves to their superiors in rank, I will not as sert, but, from my own knowledge, I can testify to a con siderab'm number of them being of that description. As regards their notions of justice, what right, I would ask, has a man to complain of being harshly dealt with, who would have witnessed with perfect ease and satisfac tion the living flesh torn and lashed from the back of his fellowman for precisely the same offence for which he (Capt. Reynolds) is only turned out of the service,but with a back as free from scars as when he entered it ? Can he, or any other Captain, show any mark of distinction con ferred by nature to entitle him to have such an immense difference made in his favour ? The Liberal portion of the Press has done much towards abolishing the flogging system, but to me it appears that such efforts are prema ture ; the very fact of its existence is a sufficient proof that the Army is unfit for any other kind of government ; therefore, instead of abolishing let it be extended—let it be administered fairly, the same number of lashes for the same kind of offence, whether committed by private or officer, until such time as the army can be composed of men sufficiently rational to disdain to be governed like slaves or brutes—there would then be required no Act of Parliament to abolish it for ever. I am ' Sir, your's, respectfully, AN OLD SOLDIER, AND A CHARTIST. Birmingham, Nov. 15. [We publish this letter without concurring in some of the opinions expressed by the writer. We should be loath to entertain so unfavourable opinions from a portion of the British Army.] PRINCE Po NIATOWSKI'S NEW OPERA.-- The long-expected opera by Prince Poniatowski was brought out on the 11th ult. at the Pergola Theatre of Florence, the amateurs of which city agree in pronouncing it to be a work of great promise. The Prince was called forward no fewer than eight times. Among the performers were Mme. Unger, Messrs. Roncani and Musich, who sustained their parts with all their well-known talents, and the opera was in all points got up with the utmost bril liancy. It is said that the Prince is composing a new work. FANNY ELSSLER. Fanny Elssler has pre sented one thousand dollars towards the erection of the national monument at Bunker Hill. The American press has been divided in sentiment as to the contribution for a national object from such a source, but the liberal portion of the community have prevailed over fanaticism, and it will be received in the same generous spirit that prompted the offer. Her popularity as a danseuse still continues unabated. She is, we believe, about to rAurn to Europe, though there are rumours of her visiting the Havannah, and remaining at the other side of the Atlantic until the spring. THE SILK TRADE.—The Coventry Herald tells us that a new species of machinery has been brought h i t s into operation in the silk trade , which threatens to make so material an alteration in all its branches, that ' " become " an entirely new trade, and must be learntwill as such." The great principle of the division a o ra f te labour classes very carefully carried out — that is to say, every part i n the process of the manufacture is performed by sap of operatives. That which in the ribbon trade is done by the weaver alone, will in future form anoCgccubpeartailolny for three distinct persons even in the plain branch. Thus the warp, which in the case of the ribbon weaver comes into his hands from the warper, is handed over, in the first place, to the twister, who puts it through the reed or knub picker, by c al l a c y a . red l f t ro t in hen all go it e s s k t n o o t t lz tray proceeds' and whom it is carefully the process of vveavilntggouty with tfihber least fibres, so th at pos sible obstruction. or reed, are all willremoved , therefore, be seen that when the warp is woven down,out t e roll, o r the t hrrouomm, together, harness, and and slay h e re placed by others, including the new warp prepared for t working ; and the 1,,in., to 4 is„, time occupied in making this exchange ' ' ' inmultni, the weaver will ilav ,-, crd,cl , rne 1p.,..e (.„ ~ , . . u , p, and c a mm eace d wea ving another, this trifling " PARIS, FEB., 1641.—My dear Ediat, whil - au are forgetting me at Narbonne, and giving a ourself tip :a the pleasures of the Court, and the delight of thw arta g M. le Cardinal de Richelieu, I, according to your e , (press desire, am doing the hcnours of Paris to your E trgliA Lord, the Marquis of Werccs!er ; ard I cerra i• hi a about, or rather he carries M 7, from curios' if y curiosity, choosing always the most grave at a I 7 - rious, speaking very little, listening with extren la • tention, and fixing on those whom he interril at, a two large blue eyes, which seem to pierce to chic- vi • ; centre of their thoughts. He is remarkable for la c% being satisfied with any explanations wlieiit are g t him, and he never sees things in the light to :it they are shown him ; you may judge of this b it isit we made together to Biectre, where he IM:4, he had discovered a genius in a madman.

This man,' tort nued the keeper, 'is named Salomon de Caus ; is I came from Normanby, four years ago, to presei to the King a statement of the wonderful affeu that might be produced from his invention. '1 listen to him you would imagine that with steam yiat could navigate ships, :140Ve carriages, in fact, the is no end to the miracles, which, he insists upe, It it, could be performed. The Cardinal sent 11. ft madman away without listening to him. Sale - mon de Caus, far from being discouraged, lowed the Cardinal wherever he went, with the masts determined perseverence, who, tired of finding him fo-- ever in his path, and annoyed to death with his folly, or dered him to be shut up in Bicetre, where he has r or. • been for three years and a half, and where, as hear, he calls out to every visitor that he is t at. mad, but that he has made a valuable dis.e, - very. He has even written a book on the stol-.. ject, which I have here.' Lord Worcester, had listened to this account with much interest, aft , • reflecting a time, asked for the book, of which, aftcr• having read several pages, he said, This man . not mad. In my country , i nstead of shuttli..e him up, he would have been rewarded. Take Le to him, for I should like to ask him soeit• questions.' He was accordingly conducted to hi-. cell, but after a time he came back sad and thoughtful 'He is indeed mad now,' said he ; " misfortune anti captivity have alienated his reason, but it is you who have to answer for his madness ; when you cast him into that cell, you confined the greatest genius of the age.' After this we went away, and since that time he has don nothing but talk of Salomon de Caus. Adieu my dear friend and faithf u l H enry .

The following is a copy of a letter mitten by Pets- Potter, who emigrated to South Australia two years since, from Lewes. Such an unfavourable description of the " land of promise" we have not yet seen : " Adelaide, March 14, 1840. " Dear Brothers and Sisters,—l write these few lint). to you hoping that you are all well as we are at present., but this is quite a different country and place from what represented in England, I do assure you, and if all peopi. would write truth there would not be half so many coin out ; for eight out of ten working people that I -• spoken to about their circumstances, say they shoc.., be glad to get back again if they knew how to do I think of making another move to New Zer.-- land, or somewhere else where it is colder, as it is alarmingly hot here. I shall be glad to hear fron you, for I would not advise any mechanic to corr..- here whatever with a family. Although wages arc high, provisions are very dear, and so is rent ; for we now pay twelve shillings per week for a mud house, about fit for a pigsty, but it is called quite a comfortable house. Here are plenty of London bugs and fleas, the ground quite swarms with them. Ido assure you it is a most dreadful place to bring a family to ; drunkenness an vice of all descriptions are practised here to an alarm ing height. The accounts you have sent to Eng land come back to us again, and they aro anything but the truth. I do assure you, instead of this Ibeing a land of butter and eggs, it is a laud of sand aria vermin ; if we lie down and sleep in the day, the flies will blow our eyes, cars, or nose, and there will be mag gots in a few hours. Thomas Harman got a hale fre-sh on Christmas day, and fell asleep, got maggotty in his ears, and was nearly crazy. The doctor took out nine, three-eighths of an inch long and one-eighth in size. We have only had one die that came from Lewes, that James Hcarsey. " You may show this letter to any that talk e. coming out, as I cannot wish any o f my friends tr come to us by any means at present. I hare seta you some manna, such as the Israelites did eat ; w .. get it about 20 miles up the country, it is found on tl ground, they use it for medicine, and some castor oil seed:, some for you and some for Caleb. We are all in wort; and are doing middling. Here is plenty of w or k, I expect to be in a shop of my own soon. We are a. within three miles of one another. I havo.seen Mr Godley, and they are all doing middling. I told vou would send it just as I found it, and so I have. Many say that they do not like to make their friends uneasy, and so write what is not the truth. " Let Mr. Davis sec this, and tell him I shall always write the truth. Money is very scarce ever since we have been hire, but plenty of trade and an over-stock of hands. Tailors, smiths, and all sorts of trades are going into the forest splitting timber. I have been at work in the city ever since I have been here. The natives are the most ugly, dirty race that ever was in the world, Ido believe. I must tell you about them, for I do not wish you to conic and see them at present at any rate. We arc very backward in all agricultural pursuits but all sorts of cattle are very plentiful, and doing very well, if let run in the rough they get very fat. Our sand storms are worse than your slimy storms, I assure you, and when it does rain, there is no mistake about it, and I have thought the whole would be blown away together, and I don't know if it would be of much consequence if it did. If you come you must expect to live a life like hogs, I can assure you it is not worth any one's time and trouble, in my opinicn, until we can grow our own corn. Last year we sowed about 100 acres, and this year about 1,000, People are leaving for the country very fast, for farming, as it is more healthy than the city. There is a great mortality in it, and plenty of work for the doctors. When the Buckinghamshire people came out, Francis told me they lost 100 souls. I have known seven or eight at a time lie dead, so you must not believe all you hear about this beautiful place. I remain your affectionate brother, —Sussex Advertiser. P. POTTER. , A few days ago the attention ofCaptain Rich ardson, of the Gorbals police, was directed to an advertise ment in the London Police Gazette, setting forth that a commercial traveller, named Buckley Royle, had ab sconded from the employment of Mr. Charles Heywood, in Manchester, taking with him a considerable sum of money ; and information was at the same time given him that a person answering the description of the fugitive had enlisted, about ten days ago, in this part of the ceientry, in the Ist Dragoons. Acting upon this last piece ofinforma tion, he directed Brown, the criminal officer, to proceed to Hamilton, where a party of the Ist Dragoons are now lying, which he did, and took Royle into custody. The prisoner was brought to Gorbals on Friday, and now lies there waiting orders from Manchester as to his future destina tion.
