To which are added remarks on the wonders of the Microscope in revealing the hidden mysteries "of Life within Life," and its advantages in detecting, by Rrinaryexamination, the cause and effect of every variety of these omphints, With numerous engravings and cases. • BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Seciety, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is It it., absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated with out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting OI toe,, biLtersie..nety be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

THE FALL OF DELHI. 818311N3a s , Tuesday.—The short telegraphic de spatch announcing the capture of Delhi, which arrived in this town sh or tl y a f ter 6 o ' clock yesterday evening, was welcomed with the greatest enthusiasm. The news a.zents, by whom it was received, immediately commu nicated the fact to the principal hotels, the theatre, the town-hail, the concert-rooms, and other places of public amusement; and upon its announcement, the various audiences gave the intelligence a hearty and cheering welcome. Later in the evening Tho Sun, containing the official intelligence, arrived by express, and added to the excitement. NOTTINGHAM.—The intelligence of the taking of Delhi arrived in Nottingham about 9 o'clock on Monday night, by electric telegraph, and was received with the greatest enthusiasm. The " firing "of the bells of the various churches in the town proclaimed the joyful news to those of the inhabitants who were not previously acquainted with it. The information was received by the manu lactnrers and merchants assembled in the Commercial Exchange with a cordial round of applause. The arrival of The Sun confirmed the fact, and the telegram was posted outside the various newspaper offices, thereby satisfying the inhabitants of the correctness of the state ment. Flags waved from different buildings in the town, and the news has imparted an intensity of joy, which, considering that no one doubted the certainty of Delhi being taken, could scarcely have been expected. The feeling in the town is that the mutineers should be visited by a strict retribution. LIVERPOOL—EarIy on Tuesday the bells of various churches in this town rang forth a merry peal, and con tinued to do so throughout the day, on account of the fall of the city of Delhi. Many of the shops, too, dis played large banners, and the ships in the docks and in the river also exhibited their gayest bunting. The intelligence was communicated on Monday night to the audience at the Theatre Royal previous to the com mencement of Professor Anderson's performances, and was greeted with three cheers.

The Liverpool, New York, and Philadelphia Screw Steamship Company's steamer City of Wash ington has arrived, with advices from New York to the 15th inst. On the I.6tb instant the City of Washington sig nalled the ship Jacob A. Westerbelt, bound west ; and the Royal mail steamship Asia, hence for New York ; and on the 24th, at 7.20 a.m., signalled the ship Wandsworth, bound east. A despatch from Washington says : "It is not true, as stated, that the Government of Nicaragua have recognised and agreed to the details of the treaty with that republic adopted at a Cabinet meet ing. The question is still under consideration. Yrissari, the Minister of Nicaragua, has left for New York. The statement that Lord Napier had given orders to the British squadron in the Gulf to arrest the Filibusters is wholly untrue." There had been some rioting at Baltimore. The interesting portions of the news entirely re late to the bank panic at New York and elsewhere. The new order of business through the banks of the city of New York, rendered necessary and con venient by the stoppage of specie payments on the 14th, was inaugurated on that evening by the fol lowing proceedings :—The banks recognised the notes of all the solvent banks of the city and state of New York, on part of the basis of what ate known in ordinary dealings as current funds. These and the certified cheques of of the bank dealers to be payable in current funds, as well as gold and treasury drafts, as the portion of the bank holding either or all will be employed in the adjustment of the daily balances growing out of the interchanges through the clearing house. The Bank of America will continue to hold the key to the common vault in which the specie of the associated banks is held and represented by certifi cate ; and the Metropolitan Bank, it is understood will be made the common depository of the country bank notes belonging to the association, and these also will be represented by certificates. The new arrangement will extend to all country bank paper secured at Albany, and to such regis tered notes of the old safety fund banks as the com mittee of management on this subject, aided by the experience of the metropolitan system, shall desig nate. At a meeting of the bank officers, held at the clearing house on the evening of the 14th, the fol lowing resolutions were adopted without dissent : "Resolved—That we will take at par notes of banks on the State of New York, secured on the bank depart ment at Albany, and all such safety fund banks as may be designated from time to time on deposits from our customers only, and in payments of notes due on our banks respectively. That we will receive or pay ba lances at the Clearing-house in such notes ; the same being counted, envel o p e d, ti e d, an d sealed, with the amount certified on the parcel whenever the sum shall exceed $l,OOO, provided the same be certified by an officer appointed by the Clearing-house Association." A committee of three was appointed to arrange the details of the plan, which was to go into opera tion immediately. The judges of the New York Supreme Court had adoptrd and promulgated a code of opinions in re gard to the enforcement of the penalties of the law against suspended banks. They agree that it is for them to wind up the banks or not, in the exercise of a sound discretion that they are not to be enjoined unless they are insolvent, or unless an injunction may be necessary to prevent fraud and injustice. That a prevention of specie payments is not proof of insolvency, and that no injunction should issue without giving both parties a hearing. The New York Courier and Enquirerof the 15th says:-- "The community seem to acquiesce in the conclusion arrived at by the banks last evening, to suspend specie payments for the present. Business among these insti tutions was generally going on this morning as usual, except that specie was refused in large sums, The North River Bank has not yet resumed business, but proposes to do so to-morrow. The Ocea❑ Bank is in the bands of a receiver, but wilt probably resume operations during the week. The other banks in Greenwich-street, viz., the Merchants' Exchange, the New York Exchange, and the Irving Bank, are receiving deposits and paying cheques as before. A notice to the following effect was was posted up in several banks : " i The business of the banks will be transacted exactly as heretofore, with the exception of paying specie. Cheques will be received on deposit and on the payment of noter, and bank-notes will be pail and received as usual.' "The Metropolitan Bank has the following placarded on the railings : METROPOLITAN BANS. •" This bank will receive on deposit at par notes of banks in the State of New York secured in the banking department of this State, and also the bills of such safety fund banks as may be designated, and will pay cheques drawn against such deposits in similar currency.' " The American Exchange Bank, the Bank of the Commonwealth, and a few others have adopted a similar course, and others are deliberating whether to come into the measure. The effect of this will be to keep the country bills at par in this city for ordinary business transactions, instead of forcing them home for redemp , tion, as heretofore. A. B. Hays, cashier, has been ap• pointed receiver of the North River Bank. Mr. R. Martin, president of the Ocean Bank, was appointed receiver of that institution on application to Judge Pea body. The Chymical Bank, it is understood, is the only one that continues specie payments ; but it is ob vious that this can be done for a short time only, and if the bank restricts its business to merely gold and silver its operations will be very light. The exchanges are in a worse condition to-day than before. The brokers are at a loss what to charge for checks on Boston, Philadel phia, New Orleans, and oth er c iti es . The only offer we have beard of to-day was 6i discount. Gold is nomi nally 6 to 8 to 10 per cent. prem.-6 for large sums, and I 8 to 10 IT small amounts. The Clearing-house will have another meeting this evening to consult upon and to decide upon the mode of settlement. "To-day the balances between the banks were called for in specie, but to persist in this mode of settlement would only serve to maintain a course of contraction in loans. The small banks under this rule would be afraid to expand, or bring themselves in debt to the stronger ones. No relief had been looked for by the community under this process. "A more equitable, a more beneficial one, would be to extend their loans 3 to 5 per cent., and fix upon a maximum for the aggregates ; otherwise, the merchants will be as much at a loss as before for funds to meet their engagements. " We learn by telegraph that the banks at Boston, Portland, Hartford, Albany, and ether important places have followed the example of New York in the suspen sion of specie payments. " The Chocrleston News confirms the report of the sue. pension of the Bank at Augusta. - "The sub-Treasury is so depleted by the redemption of Government stocks, that the Seeretary of the Trea sury gives notice he will redeem no more at present. The price in the market will therefore probably decline 112 to 115. The Custom-house duties at all dig seaports had declined so materially that the general Government will probably not have funds enough for the fiscal ope rations of the year. The reduction of duties for the current year will probably be 20,000,000 dole. The operations of the Clearing-house to-day were 18,000,537 dollars against an average daily balance in the spring of 25.000,000 doll. Il will be perceived that an impetus has been given to the stock-market by the changes in the currency. New York Central advanced to-day 6 per cent. ; Erie, 21 ; R ein i ng , V, ; Michigan Central. 6 ; Cleveland and Toledo, 3 ; Galena and Chicago, 9 ; New York State Five per Cent, brought 88 to 90 ; Mis souri Sixes improved 6 ; Illinois Central Bonds, 8 ; Deleware and Hudson Canal, 5." The New York Journal of Commerce says " Foreign exchange has materially advanced, sales of bills on London were made as high as 108, but this is an extreme rate, while there is a large amount of second c ass bills offering." The New York Tiines says : "The foreign exchanges had scarcely time to act under the new order of things before the Arabia sailed for Liverpool. The rates advanced at 5 per cent. Lag evening the Associated Banks adopted the New York State currency —country and city—as current funds in all geneial banking transactions—an arrangement which will greatly niitivate the inconvenience of the suspension. All the city banks which broke down early iv the day yesterday, including the Ocean, were restored to regular business. " A telegraphic report from Boston, that Little, Alden, and Co., who have a branch house of very ex tensive business here, had stopped payment, wants Con firmation.

By 20 minutes to the appointed time (2 o'clock) the jockeys had weighed tont, and the number of the competitors was announced in the Ring. It was, however, about 20 minutes to 3 before the starter dropped his flag. The delay was caused principally by the "fractiousness" of Fanny Gray and the impatience of El Hakim. Fanny repeatedly lashed out with her hind legs, and once hit Tricolour and gave El Hakim a "stunner" on the head ; the horse, however, did not seem affected by the kick. After much wheeling and turning about, the signal was given and an admi rable start effected. El Hakim and the Plush colt, who were slightly in advance when the flag fell, were the first off, but on the horses getting into their stride Madlle. de Chantilly and Whistling Willie, the latter perhaps with a slight lead, went to the front, closely followed by Peeping Tom, Queen Bess, Gilliver, Odd Trick, Moestissiina, and Artillery, as nearly as could be determined in the order named, with El Hakim, Plush colt, Cerva, Tricolour, Kestrel, Rosa Bonheur, Saunterer, Fright, M. Dobler, and Bird-in-the-Hand running nearly " level," and at the head of a nick which stretched in a long line across the course. The foremost borzoi maintained their relative positions to the Duke', stand, where the shifting colours showed that the "tailing" had commenced. At that point a " crack of a whip" caused Whistling Willie to lay back his ears and stop aa if be sht leaving Mademoiselle de Chantilly with an was udis pute d lead ; Artillery, Gilliver, Peeping Tom, Queen Bess, and others who bad shown prominently in the race disappeared one by one from the front Cyrene, who bad been hidden in the ruck, now coming to the front. Saunterer and Cyrene went on in close pursuit of Mademoiselle de Chantilly, who was passed by Odd Trick midway between the Duke's Stand and the winning-chair ; Mademoiselle, after running second for a few strides, gave way successively to Mcestissima and Saunterer. From the time of Odd Trick's taking the lead the result was scarcely in doubt, He had been " ridden" at the Duke's Stand, but this jockey soon found that he had his cpponents safe, and sending him along, won easily by two lengths Mcestissima beating Saunterer by a neck only for second place ; Cyrene was fourth, about three lengths from the third and half a length in advance of Mdle de Chantilly, who was fifth ; Bird-in-the-Eland was sixth, Tricolour leading the next lot, which was widely scattered ; Babylon (who with his stable companion, Prioress, never showed in the race) was absolutely last.

The Journal de St. Petersbourg of the 18th inat: contains the following official notice : "Since the re-establishment of Peice seine doubts have arisen relative to the navigation and commerce of foreign countries in the Black Sea. In order to remove all uncertainty in this matter, the Imperial government believes it r i g h t to bring the following to the knowledge of the public, and especially ot foreign merchants :—As the Treaty of Paris solemnly proclaimed, the ports and waters of the Bla c k S ea are open to the mercantile marine o f all nations. Free from every obstacle, 3ommerce in the ports an d waters of the Black Sea has b een subject only t o san i tary customs and po li ce regu lations, conceived in a spirit favourable :o the de velopment of commercial transactions. Such are the obje c t s expressed in the Treaty of Paris. The imperial government, as far as it is concerned, in tends scrupul ous l y to conform to them. But the maintenance of sanit ary customs and pol i ce regula tions, however liber a l th e sp i r i t i n w hi c h th ey are conceived, requires measures of surveillance, and along the Asiatic coasts of the Black Sea these are doubly necessary, on account of the internal con dition of the Caucasian provinces. " Some establishments of quarantineand customs exist at Anapa, Soukhoum-Kale and Redout Kale. These three points are the only ones at present open to foreign vessels. lf, In future, cir cumstances allow of the establishment of customs and quarantine authorities at other parts of the same coast, and ;the admission of foreign vessels, notice of the same will be given to merchants ; meanwhile the approach. to tint_ s, bzia, and harbours of the Asiatic coast, with the exception of Anapa, Soukhoum-Kale and Redout-Kato, is prohibited by foreign vessels. To establish the regularity of this destination, foreign vessels will be required to procure a vise of their papers by Russian Consular agents. " The imperial government has no intention of impeding in any way the development of lawful and regular commercial intercourse. It is in the interest of the sanitary state of its coasts much more than from fiscal considerations, in the interest of public order, which is as beneficial to foreign as to national commerce, that the imperial govern ment wilt watch over, as it has a right to do, the maintenance of the restrictions above announced. Every attempt, therefore, of foreign navigators to communicate with the coast, excepting at Anapa, Soukhoum-Kale, and Redoui-Kale, will provoke on the part of the Russian authorities the measures of repression decreed against smuggling and viola tions of sanitary laws. Those who expose them selves in this manner must bear the consequences of their conduct." A Vienna letter of the 20th in the Augsburg Gazette says that Baron Werner, who is charged with the ad interim administration of Foreign Affairs, had informed the Russian Ambassador, Baron de Budberg, that the Austrian Cabinet con sidered the recent resolution of the Russian. govern ment, to open only the three ports of Amapa, Souk houm-Kale, and Redout-Kale to European com mercial vessels, not in accordance with the treaty of Paris relative to the Black Sea. The letter adds that it was probable that a representation to the same effect would be made by the Austrian ambas sador at St. Petersburg to the Russian cabinet. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

The market has been in a very depressed state, and houses able to hold their own appear more anxious to secure money for what has already been parted with than to enter into new transactions. Those who are not in a position to hold, however, have a difficulty in making sales except at a reduction. Yarns have been offered at n reduction of ad. per lb. on last Tuesday's rates ; in some cases at a greater sacrifice. Cloths may be re ported 31, to 41d. per piece cheaper. Reports have prevailed for some time affecting a large American house here—Messrs. Thornton, Huggins, Ward, and Co.—but have been very generally dis credited. The advices by the last two American mails, ho wever, have been of a nature to place in difficulties, and towards the close of last week they called together their largest creditors for advice, and, after laying a statement before them, the meeting was adjourned to Monday. At, this adjourned meeting yesterday it was thought advisable they should suspend payment and call a general meeting of creditors for Friday next. From what we can learn their affairs were in a very healthy state but for the American failures, and though their liabilities are very large, they hold a large stock of goods to meet them with, besides bills and other securities, which would leave a considerable surplus after discharging them. Upwards of half-a million of these bills and securities, however, are Ameri can, and consequently next to valueless at present. A large portion of the securities, i t perfectly good if time can be gi ven . Full particulars will p ro b a bly not be known until after the meeting of is mid, will turn o u t Friday. Another small failure has also been announced in Manchester—that of Messrs. Charles Smith and Co., a firm in the muslin or Glasgow trade, who have been brought down by tho stoppages in G;ssgow• There are certain further unpleasant run:tows concerning the stability of firms in that town, and it is believed here that the worst of the crisis is not oser in Glasgow. It is said that a blank there, whi c h " i ts suffered largely, will have to w i pe off nearly half-a-nillion of money in bad debts. Th e news sent here by telegraph from Liver pool, to th e e ff ect that the Boro ugh ]lank bad cl o s ed its doors at 11 thi s morning, has exciter mach sensation, and it is e x p ecte d that several lar e g speculative houses (in c o tt on ) w i ll suspend paymen t v-morrow in that town.

The following letter from Berlin of the 24th, in the .Nord of Brussels, details the manner in which the delegation of the sovereign authority to the Prince of Prussia was subscribed to by the King ; it likewise contains some interesting speculations on the future policy of the Prussian govern ment :-- "At midday yesterday advantage was taken of a favourable moment in the King's condition to speak to him of the necessity of delegating for a time the royal signature to the Prince of Prussia. The King baying con sented, an act drawn up in terms of great delicacy, con ferring the direction of affairs on the prince, was signed by his Majesty, in presence of the Queen, of the Prince of Prussia, of his son Prince Frederick William, of Field-Mar shal Count Dohna, and the physicians ; it was presented to his Majesty by M. de Manteuffel. It will be remarked that the prince has not taken the oath prescribed by the constitution in case of a regency or on accession ; all therefore that has been done for the present is to delegate temporarily the royal signature. The prince accordingly has confined himself to declaring in his message that he will conduct affairs in conformity with the laws and the constitution of the kingdom. The prince, however, has caused it to be understood that nothing will be changed either iu the personnel of the upper administration or in the march of affairs, and that he will conduct the latter accord ing to the intentions of his Majesty, which are known to him. The prince, with admirable tact, removes what would have been thorny or difficult, but he in no respect engages the future. Be then assured that for the present the internal and foreign policy of Prussia will follow the path traced in ad►ance, and will avoid taking any reso lution of a grave character. Nevertheless, it cannot be denied the general impression bare is that the situation has entered into a phase of transition, and the general opinion is that more significant changes will take place in case the sittation be prolonged." SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the 22d contain nothing of much importance. Admiral Armero, it is said, only wanted to prorogue the Cortes to the 30th Nov., but at the request of the Queen, who wishes to open them in person, a prorogation to the 30th December was resolved on. Some of th e j ourna l s say that the new cabinet will encounter strong op position in the Cortes, as the retired ministers and their partizans, who are numerous ; M. Bravo Murillo and his party, who are upwards of 90 in number ; the Polacos, who are from 15 to 20 strong ; and the Catholics, who are b e t ween 30 and 40 in number, will join in opposing it. It was said that Admiral Arinero bad been prohibited by the Queen from admitting any Vical varist general to his cabinet, but this is contra dicted. M. Bravo Murillo, it was said, intended to return to Paris until the meeting of the Cortes. The railway from Albacete to Ain:tans° was to be opened for traffic in a few days. According to the Epoca, an understanding has been come to between the Spanish Government and the Pope, relative to the destination of the property of the Church, and the diminution of holidays to the number that exists in France, with in addition three days which are regarded with peculiar sanctity by Spaniards. SORTRIDGE CONSOLS MINING COMPANY.—Yesterday the quarterly meeting of the shareholders was held at the London Tavern, Bishopegate-street ; W. A. Thomas, Esq., in the chair. The report of the committee, inserted in The Sun last week, was read, and a statement of accounts, showing a balance in favour of the company of 1,4131. The report of Captain Richards, dated 26th inst. stated that in Hitchin'e engi ne s h a f t th ey h a d sunk 5 fathoms 3 feet since the last meeting, making a total of 12 fathoms 3 feet below the 62. The lode is from 2to 3 feet wide, composed of quartz, mundic, peach, and rich stones of copper ore. There are 8 pitches working at an average tribute of 7s. sd. in the pound. The ore in re serve in and throughout the mine amounts to about 400 tons. The cost for the next three months will be about 6001. per month, and the hi-monthly sampling about 140 tons. The reportand accounts were unanimouslyadopted. Mr. Schofield having resigned, the Chairman and Mr. Wm. Orr wire re-elected the committee of management, with the addition of Mr. Robert A/Malian. ENGINES WORKED BT ETHER.—M. Tissot, an en gineer of some standing, has communicated to the French Academy of Sciences the description of an engine en tirely worked by the expansive power of ether. The combination of this power with that of steam has long been tried on a large scale with apparently good effect ; nevertheless it is attended with certain inconveniences which more than balance its advantages. M. Tissot therefore endeavoured to eliminate steam altogether, by mixing two litres of an essential oil of any kind except oil of turpentine with the ether. The boiler is encircled with a water bath ; moreover, each time that the ether is re-conducted to the boiler, it is made to pass through a thin stratum of olive oil. The boiler is filled to a certain depth with water, in which a small quantity of soda (one gramme per litre) has been dissolved. The other, in passing through the oil in a state of vapour, carries some particles of this oil with it ; and the latter, coming in contact with the soda, is converted to soap. This double action produces an excellent effect, since the soapy sub stance in question acts as a preservative on the various parts of the engine, which on being undone after a long time is found to have undergone no change from the effects of wear or friction, a thin coating of a fatty substance having spread over the surface of the cylinders and pistons, and preserved them from injury. An engine of this description of two horse power having been constructed and tested with satisfactoryleffect, another of 12-horse power was esta blished some time ago in a brewery at Lyons instead of a common steam engine, and has been found to answer perfectly. The evaporation of ether is much more rapid than that of water ; thus, a quantity of ether, which, if it were water, it would take an hour and a half to eva porate, may be turned into vapour in the course of six minutes, with much less fuel ; the quantity of coal con sumed per hour and per horse power being only one and a half kilogrammes, while the ordinary quantity is four kilogrammes. THE LATE SMUGGLING CASE AT LEITH.—The Provost of Leith has received a communication from the Board of Customs in answer to a memorial adopted at a public meeting there, relative to the case of nine men of the steamer Holyrood, who, in default of payment of 1001. each, were lately sentenced to imprisonment during her Majesty's pleasure for being found on board of a vessel in. which was a quantity of smuggled tobacco, stating that the board have directed the immediate release of all the parties concerned, except Dixon, against whom it appeared, from the report of the evidence submitted to the board, that the evidence was stronger than against the other parties. • ,„, r 0 "-•‘t.-- ,'._`) ~i6~ !mil/T/'G L ~ ! ! join in the suspension, had declare 4 .4 iel=4._ continue specie payments permanently. "The suspension at New Bedford, haven, Augrista, Worcester, Portland, 40-nc Petersburg, Lawrence, Methuen, BangoTrookihn, Brocklyn, and Albany is announced. The Pacific Mills Corporation at Lawrence is reported suspended. At New Orleans the Louisville Central Bank is announced to have suspended, also J. L. Johnson and Ce." An Albany paper says : " We understand the auditor of the Canal Depart ment has male arrangements with the different banks holding the canal funde, whereby the checks of th e forwarders are taken, the banks taking the bills of lading as security. By this means the checks will lie forwarded by the different banks taking them to- the points of destination ; and upon payment the cargos's can be discharged=thus moving the produce ea-st with out delay, and forwarders save the length of time of the trip." There was au improved feeling in cotton, aad prices were unsettled. Prices of common bran is of breadstuffs had advanced 10c. to IZic. por barrtl, under the feeling of relief from pressure which has followed the bank suspension ; but buyers did not meet this advance readily, and, although there was a good demand, not much was done for export. The offerings of wheat were light, and there was a demand for prime parcels for export. Anadvauce of 3c. to sc. was in some cases obtained. Corn advanced lc. to 2c. per bushel, and closed firm. Provisions continued dull, and nothing but a few parcels were sold at irregular prices. Freights to Liverpool firmer. THE FRENCH DISLIKE OF ENGLAND. (From, the Examiner.) A month or two ago most of the French journals took the most gloomy views of the posture of things in India. They gave our countrymen full credit for their bravery in attempting impossibilities, in the vain hope of maintaining the honour aid prestige of their flag, but that was all. They de monstrated the impossibility of strug2ling against the odds of twenty to one or mere. They showed. how idle it was t') suppose that mu small force could hold its ground before Delhi, and ho hopeless would be its position when it would be its turn to stand on its defence, a repetition of the Cabool disaster. They proved that Luoknow must share the fate of Cawnpore, and that General Havelock would not be able to save his own little band beset by hosts of enemies on all sides, much less to succour the beleagured fortress. Finally, our excellent friends found it too certain that our reinforcements would arrive too late to save even a wreck of our army, and that their number would be found to.) small to undertake any great operations against an enemy by that time in complete undisputed possession of the beat half of our territory. Such was the calculation of most of the French journals, especially of the Univers, the Gazette de France, and the Press; the only exception having been the Siecle, which has always friendly faith in those energies which make the fortune of England. Some, like the Univers, assured us that our coming ruin was due to our offences against heaven and earth ; others professed to be concerned for the fate which they too clearly foresaw, and " with . sorrowful ditty promised th e i r p i ty ." W e ll , with out inferring the " wish father to the thought," or reproaching these Job's comforters for not being more sure of their facts before they resigned all hope of us, we ask them to observe bow matters stand now in India, and to reconcile our present posture with their previous view of our resources, and the declared impossibility of our endeavours. What do they think now of the men who have held their ground against the odds pronounced over whelming ? What do they think of the admired au dacity which has reduced the pronounced impossi hility to a matter of fact possibility. Let us not be told that our enemies have wanted military skill and daring. A month ago we were told not to pre sume on such deficiencies, not to build any expec tations or hopes on the inferiority of the sepoy, or the want of conduct and cohesion in the bands of discordant races and religionists. We were then assured that numbers and animosity would make up for all soldierly deficiencies, and overwhelm our scanty and exhausted forces. There was only one error in this reasoning, and that was in the estimate of what Englishmen are capable when mighty exi gencies mad peril call forth all the powers and re sources of the national genius. The sort of wreck which disbands and demoralises most people is the wreck which exhibits all that is noblest and bestin the English character—the order and devotion which prevailed is that noble example of the ship of war carrying Lord Amherst to China, cast away on Ler passage, and which Frenchmen themselves compared with the very different conduct presented in like circumstances in the instance of their Me dusa. Nof that the French are less brave. No people are braver, but their bravery has different seasons and occasions. It is gay, impulsive, and active, and delights in meeting danger oraffronting it. The British courage is more sedate and passive, more obedient to calls, and with its funds more amply reserved to meet heavy demands. If our present trial has revealed to us the dis agreeable truth that we are not liked by our neigh bours, we hope at least it will serve to make us bettor understood by them, and that the spectacle of _British conduct in India will inspire a respect compensating the avowed dislike for we know not what, and so tend to the great end of preservation of peace between us. It must be clear that we are not a pleasant people to war with, even when most unprepared, and unprepared henceforth we do not intend to be. We have learnt a lesson of caution, and of precaution. As the Revue de Deux 111ondes observes, our instincts instruct us to confide in ourselves alone and to provide by our own sure means for our own safety. When a province is in arms against us we do not, like an European power, implore the aid of an ally's army to restore our authority and secure the integrity of our empire. It is, however, to say the least, unpleasant to find that national prejudice still survives where it is most to our interest that it should be eradicated. The French admit that all prejudice against th em on the part of th e E ng li s h h as ceased to exist, and let us observe that this admission is a confession of an advance in true civilisation on our side, without any corresponding progress on theis where national antipathy still prevails. And mani festations of this feeling, most petty and illiberal, are observable. In French fiction the Englishman is always held up to ridicule and odium, not as as individual, but as the Britannic type, hideous in person, ungainly, unmannerly, selfish, vulgir, mean, uuintellectu a l. .A. novel ("Sil ence "), by Paul Fevel , a popular author, happens to be now before us, in which several pages are devoted to a descrip tion of the Britannic characteristics, physical and moral, in contradistinction not only to everything agreeable, but we might almost add, to everything human. And, no doubt, a seasoning of this sort ill thought, if not necessary, at least conducive to the success of any work of amusement for the French public. It feeds the dislike confessed by the Revue de Deux 3londes. These straws indeed show the set of the wind. Retaliation cannot be threatened. We cannot return to our illiberalities because our neighbours have not emancipated themselves from their wretched prejudices. And if any calamity befel France to-morrow, England would be as ready and forward to succour her as she was on the occa sion of the inundations, and net a thought would be bestowed on the ill feeling manifested when it was our turn to expect at least sympathy and good wishes.
