BY SIMUiL LA'MBRT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con equences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, Which have produced more misery in youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any 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 censcions of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are ► rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated with cut 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 of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences maybe 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 MILITIA. The Worcestershire Regiment of Militia is ordered to muster at Worcester on Thursday next. It is expected that the regiment will be ordered to un dertake garrison ditty. The 2d Lanark Militia will proceed from Dublin (on arrival) to Kilkenny. The South Down, from Dublin to Aldershott. The South Devon, from Plymouth to Dublin, thence to Waterford. The City of Dublin, from Dublin to Liverpool, for Newcastle-on-Tyne. The Tower Hamlets, from Liverpool to Dublin, for Newry. The Limerick County, from Buttevant for Aldershott, via Liver pool. The Shropshire, from Liverpool to Dublin. The Antrim Rifles, from the Curragh, via Dublin, to Liverpool, for Dover. A Cork paper of Friday says :—" Yesterday 21 privates of the South Cork Militia were conveyed here in cars from Fermoy under a strong police escort and lodged in the county gaol, for having enlisted into the North Cork militia and obtained the bounty. The men, who were brought before Mr. Neal Browne, R.M , admitted that they had been in the South Cork, but that the reason they enlisted in the o. her corps was that theirs had not been called ont for service, and that having heard the North Cork were destinPd for foreign ser vice they were anxious to serve their Quteen and country rather than. remain at home idle. They were committed to gaol for periods of a x weeks or two months each. Certainly at a time when so much is said about the necessity of procuring re cruits this seems rather a harsh way of dealing with these men." DREADFUL QUARhY ACCIDENT.-LOSS OF SIX LIVKS. A frightful accident occurred on Friday afternoon at the quarries of Cloddafa'r Lon, situate in the vale of Nautile, about nine miles from Carnarvon, resulting in the death of six persons, and serious injury to two others. A temporary cessation of work had taken place, owing to au accident to the piston-rod of the engine, and the poor f llows, about 14 in number, congregated togeti!er at the base of the deep hollow, to pass the time in conversation. Soon the dreadful cry of " war," an at breviation for " beware," in common use, startled them. Act ing on the impulse that the cry came from the place of danger, they instantly made for the cabin con structed fur the safety of those at work when dan ger is expected. Unhappily this proved the worst spot that could have been chosen. A huge rod . , estimated at about 30 tons, fell in one large mass from a height of 50 yards, and, striking ag dust the ledges of stone in its descent, broke into a thousand pieces, which bounded with tremendous force to the ground, killing three of the men on the spot, the fourth died a few minutes afterwards, the fifth while being carried home, and the six , h in about eight hours after the catastrophe. Their names are Wm. Roberts, John Parry, Hugh Prichard, Joseph Williams, and two men named Jones. The bodies presented an awful spectacle, being fearfully crushed and lacerated. William Roberts; under the im pression that the rock above his head was falling, rushed headlong into the danger trying to drag with him another man, who only escaped from him by leaving part of his waistcoat in the hands of the poor fellow, who, had lie remained stationary, would have been in all likelihood saved. John Parry also ian towards the danger, was hurled down by the falling mass, and drowned in about a yard and a half depth water. On his legs was a stone which had to be lifted by a steam-engine in order to extricate the body. The injured mes, though severely hurt, are progressing favourably. Many others had narrow escapes. The deceased were married, and have left many young children. The cause of the accident is supposed to have arisen from the adhesiveness of the rock, being affected by the lodgment of water in a bevel joint, which runs to an angular point at the bottom, thus mak ing the mass top-heavy. The rock had been minutely examined only the day previous. ROYAL VISIT TO "THE LEVIATHAN." On Saturday afternoon his Royal highness the Prince Consort, accompanied by the Prince of Wales, paid a visit to the Leviathan, and were occupied some time in examining the ship, Vie machinery, and general arrangements for launching her. In the course of the morning a kind of survey was made of the cradles on which the monster vessel sits, c►ith a view of setting at rest the doubts that have been expressed as to their injured condition. It was averred, in a letter published in one of the morning papers, that owing to the great weight and pressure on the iron rails, which were laid down longitudinally on the ways, that they would be likely to roll up, as it were, the iron plates on the bottom of the cradles, and to embed themselves so much in the river as to render any further descent of the ship almost impossible. To disprove this supposition, an experienced man passed under the kelson of the ship, close by the side of the era Iles, and he could not discover the least failure, defect, or injury, to either the cradles or the ways. She sits as even as she did on the morning of the launch. The ship itself continues uninjured, both as regards her build and position. She has not experienced any material deflection, and neither has she exhibited any symptoms of settling. At low water on Satur day, labourers were engaged in clearing the ways of the mud which the tides had left on them, but this in no way impaired the solidity of the work. It has been stated that another attempt might be made to launch her at the next spring-tides, on the 17th instant, but we believe that the operation has been definitely postponed until the 2d of December, and that the attempt will not be renewed until that day. It will be high-water at London -bridge about 20 minutes past two o'clock, near the same time within a few minutes as on last Tuesday. r return which bee just been pub lished in t/ Sportin 10 , , THE SPORTING SEASON. — A ccordin g to the annual Review, we find that, putting aside mere scratch i pac itnhetrheeaurensiitxedpKasikosgdootms.tagoh o f i t in h d es s e a n n e d ar l l l y 6 z o o f are of t a til d is oz s e e n as fi e r n st , a a nd m s o e: t on u d nr w ,r h e i c p: an'd four have become first whips.

Since the discovery of the mutilated remains of a policeman in a pool of water near the village of Stevenage, Hertfordshire (as announced in a para graph in The Sun of Thursday last), circumstances cave transpired which cl ear ly p o i n t to the perpe rator of the murder. The name of the unfortu nate policeman was John Starkins ; he was for inerly in the employ of the Earl of Verulam, at St. Alban's, and only joined the county constabu ary force a few months ago. He had, however, displayed so much activity and intelligence that he was frequent'y employed upon occasions where in ordinary cases the services of more experienced members of the force are engaged. Numerous petty depredations have recently taken place in the neighbourhood of Stevenage, and in consequence the police have received strict orders to search the baskets or wallets of the farm labourers returning k ' rom their work. On the afternoon of Friday, the 30th ultimo, Starkins was directed by his inspector to look after the men returning from their work on the Hertford side of Stevenage, and he was particu larly ordered to watch the proceedings of a man named Carpenter, who was suspected of stealing his employer's corn, and who had been frequently rieard to say that no one policeman should ever -earch him. The constable was al'o directed to •eturn to the police station and report himself at 6 o'clock. At half-past 5 o'clock he was seen in a lane leading from the high road to Norton-green Farm, in the occupation of Mr. Horn, about 150 ;ards from the spot where his body was subsequently discovered. Nothing more was seen or heard of until the following Monday, when in consequence of a strict search having been ordered to be made for him, a police-constable named Isgate entered a field called the " Bashes," and in a pool of water at the lower end he observed he foot and hand of a man above the water. He immediately obtained assistance, and on recovering the body it proved to be that of the unfortunate man of whom he was in search. It presented a chocking spectacle, the throat being cut and the head nearly severed from the body. There were Also several wounds on the back of the head and ihoulders, which appear to have been inflicted by a knife or dagger. The ground near the pond bore traces of a desperate struggle. The grass for some listance was trampled and torn up, and in the field lay a pair of handcuffs, as though the struggle had )ccurred while the constable was attempting to make a capture. The man who has been appre tiended, and upon whom suspicion rests as the oerpetrator of the murder, is the labourer men tioned above—Jeremiah Carpenter, an athletic young man, who for some time had been employed in the Norton-green farm, and who lived in one of four cottages at the south end of Stevenage, About 300 yards out of the town, and about A mile from the farm. The grounds of suspi cion against him are as follow :—On Friday, the day of the murder, he was not employed at the farm, but in a field at some distance from it. He eft work about half-past 5 o'clock in the evening, and his nearest way home was across the secluded field in which the murder took place. He did not, however, reach his cottage until 10 minutes past 6 o'clock, having taken 40 minutes in going a distance which he usually walked in 2G. A man named Shepherd, who works on the same farm, and lip es in the cottage adjoining to that occupied by Carpenter, was detained on the farm for a quarter ,f an hour after Carpenter left, but reached home first, and shortly afterwards saw Carpenter come from the direction of the railway over a fence into his own garden, whence he entered his cottage by the back door. Shephered noticed that the smock frock which Carpenter wore was twisted round his shoulders, and soon afterwards he reappeared from the cottage dressed in his Sunday clothes, and went into Shepherd's house, where he stated Mhe hid been attempting to split the trunk of a tree and had hurt his leg. Shepherd examined the leg, which was much swollen, and advised Carpenter to see a doctor * As soon as the above facts reached the ears of the police Carpenter was taken into custody. At the time of his apprehension he wore the clothes which he had on on the day of the murder, and on examination it was discovered that his smockfrock, boots, and pocket-knife, bore marks of blood. He, however, stoutly denies his guilt, and accounts for his unusual delay in reach ing home on the night of the murder by stating that be took a circuitous route, At the spot where the struggle evidently took place in the "Bathes" a quantity of corn was found lying upon the ground. It has been examined by Mr. Horn, the prisoner's employer, who states that it is in every respect similar to some which had been abstracted from his premises. A post mortem examination of the body has been made, and the medical evidence goes to show that the unfortunate man was strangled, probably by the murderer grasping bim by his neckerchief, and that his throat was cut while be lay in a state of unconscousnese upon the ground. Carpenter has been examined before Mr. Prime at Hitchin, and stands remanded. The adjourned inquest upon the body will take place at Stevenage this day (Monday.) PROSTITUTION-THE NEED FOR ITS REFORM. (From the Lancet.) • " This," said Mr. Disraeli in a recent speech, "I believe to be the age of statistical imposture ;" and an ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer should be no mean authority on such a point. As concerns pros titution, the elaborate statistics collected represent in only a faint degree the amount of evil that is doing. Like a hideous parasite, it has swollen into rank and filthy luxuriance in the shade thrown over it. Its dimensions have been very accurately mea sured. We know, on the best authority,* that one house in sixty in London is a brothel, and ono in every sixteen females (of all ages) is, de facto, a prostitute. Yet, startling as these figures appear, we repeat that they convey but a feeble impression of the effects produced on society by the mass of sanctioned wickedness thus represented. High and low, rich and poor, the virtuous and the vicious, alike present evidence of the taint. We plume our selves on the decorum of our court ; yet the sworn testimony of many witnesses in frequent trials proves that there is a strong undercurrent of licen tiousness and immorality—that the powerful in fluences of the most virulent court in Europe is no match for the allurements of Daldeh— that the high and mighty rush from the fano of the patrician Pudicitia to abase themselves in the temple of the Immodest Venus. There is, to be sure, a flimsy veil thrown over such doings—and herein only does the vice of the courtier differ from that of the costermonger, who attempts no conceal ment, but lives openly in his sin. " But one in who eir live mat t as er. twenty," says Mr. Mayh ew , " o f th e s treet folks, matter- a f n a c t and live lives f r e e pastare minararmin b ed;" and if t whom is the first stone to be cast ? It is, however, among the middle classes—in comparably the most important to the welfare of the state, that the chief mischief is done by the evil that they are the most persistent in ignoring. The typical Paterfamilias, living in a grand house near the park, sees his sons allured into de bauchery, dares not walk with his daughters through the streets after rdghtfall, and is disturbed from his night slumbers by the drunken screams and foul oaths of prostitutes reeling home with daylight. If he look from the window, he sees the pavement—his pavement—occupied by the flaunting daughters of sin, whose loud, ribald talk forces him to keep his casement closed. Yet he refuses to sanction any means for remedying the evil, or to lend his aid to its reform. He not only allows the dirt to accumulate, because it is dirt, but scrupulously carries out the social code under which prostitution has so notably increased of late years.: It has grown into a custom to oppose to marriage every resistance that the most over-strained pru- I deuce can suggest ; except under circumstances sel dom attained until middle life by a man of good and even high social position. In the meantime society cares little what may be his private life during the long years that he is ineligible. It has even invented a lying, wicked phrase about his "sowing his wild oats," (as though God had freighted him with wickedness which must perforce be scattered abroad), in order to shift the burden on his shoulders, and thus avoid the recollection that every incentive to immorality is encouraged to lead hini astray, and that even if he would avoid the "social sin that wars against the strength of youth," his resolvei are combated by temptation from which there is no escape, and vice that dogs his very footsteps in the streets, and solicits him to e vil— "By unchaste look, loose gesture, and foul talk." The e effects of this arrangement way be easily sur mised : men marry at wore advanced ages, or not at all. Of women in London above 20 years of age, 40 per cent. are unmarried, In England and Wales nearly 50,000 illegitimate children are Ii rn * Mr. Talbot and other careful observers calculate the number of brothels in London et 5,000, and the number of prostitutes_ 80,000. whose mothers hare all t a ke n the first step in pros ' titution. And this number, it is supposed, scarcely amounts to one-third of the actual cases where wrong is done, ye-, no evidence transpires. If we remember that in no case does any legal penalty attach to the betrayer for the wrong lie has done to the woman, whilst the cordon of prudery is drawn so tight aronnd her tlat she baa little ohance of escap e from the wide-opened portals of the way that leads to destruction, it osn hardly be wondered that the ranks of prostituf:on are densely filled. And now the hollow hypocrisy of the present system begins to show itself. Tte woman who has cast virtue behind her, who las said, in the bitterness of her heart, " Evil, be thou my good," is accorded a licence granted to zone others of her sex. She may come and go as she will ; no law restrains her—no thought of " what the world will say." The best streets are given ue to her, and arranged so as to suit her hours (ws refer to police management, gas-lighting, cab-stands, dec.) She may thrust virtue into the mud without rebuke, may leer at the passers-by, accost them with her so:icitations, and insult them if they shrink from contact with her. In her haunt she reigns omnipotent ; for the fortunes of many tradesmen are built up by the wages of prostitution. Taverns, cafes, restaurauts, &c., where she :esorts, are allowed to remain open all night for her' convenience. And, lest her allureaents should fail for want of gaudy trappings, there are booths in Vanity Fair (whose owiJors pride themselves on moral characters of the choicest kind), kept by traders called " tally-men," who supply her with clothes on terms especially adapted to her precarious trade, charging exorbitant prices to cover all risks, and being paid by instalments. How these are gained is a matt r of indifference to men who would scarcely have hesitated to pocket the thirty pieces that Judas cast from him. It is in grateful acknow ledgment of these provisions for their comfort that loose women flock to London from all parts of Europe. Turning from the prostitute to her companion we see how the evil that she does gradually makes itself felt. There is Easily a slang word used in the boudoir which, though uttered by lips that know no guile, is only a left-off epithet of the harlot, car ried home by her paramour, and taught to his sis ters. For one miserable result of unrestrainedly permitting these women and their companions to assemble in public places and exchange the kind of banter in which they indulge, is the p roduction of a race of wretched boys, half-fledged in manhood, who take pride in a knowledge of what is vile, who think they aro clever when they are only blas phemous, and witty when they are only obscene. The one fool who especially makes many, is the vicious fool. Thus clerks, students, youths with homes rendered sad by their evil conduct, men who take the Queen's money and disgrace her service, with many others of like sort, are attracted by com panions, or entrapped by harlots, to join the Satur nalia allowed to continue throughout the night in certain of the streets of London. The first visit is seldom the last ; for the vice of seusuality is to the degraded mind as attractive; as the vice ( f gambling. There is work to be done, perchance in the morning; but the shaking hand, j the heavy eyes, the aching head, are unfit to do it. Perhaps there is a path in life to be won ; but he who walks in sin is little likely to hap upon it. And if the poor deluded fool follows out the evil course that our present social system renders it difficult for him to altogether escape, his physical degradation too fre quently keeps pace with his mental depravity. His settlement in life is but that of a foul sediment. Vitiated himself, and " mom datums progenieua vitiosiorem," his constitution too often points to 12 on the dial of life which his years are at six. These, then, are the pet, prodigal children of society ; these are the bright results of non-inter ference with the vice of prostitution ; these are the human beings tempted or driven into vice, and for whom society has so carefully chosen and ploughed the ground that they may " sow their wild oats" unchecked. Oh ! blind, shirking, hypocritical criers of " Peace !" when there is no peace—who ig it reaps the harvest ? WHO SPENDS THE MONEY ? (From the lew York Times.) The women of Ameriea have of late been paying the penalty of their position. From the extreme of obsequious gallantry in regard to them we are passing to the opposite excess of vituperative in justice. We are treating them, in fact, very much as the African savage treats his Fetish. In the times of our prosperity we could not sufficiently adulate these lovely and omnipotent beings. We could refuse them nothing. The best seats at hotel tables, the only seats in railway cars, the decencies of the steam-boat deck, and the decorum of the steam-boat supper were alike reserved for them. We exacted of our police only one duty, to escort otaotlirtihsewelhiavadneisgees.da.ntd daughters daintily through the perils of the streets ; and we expected of all men only one virtue, that of an almost servile courtesy are the Flora treacherous But adversity has overtaken us, and debtors of the land lii sex " , Y and th. piteous cry of "nothing is the typo of her thoughtless and wear. to pay," , r, which "extravagant erhavca The g a P a r t e t s t y y r c e n re s a: creatures s t 0 0 - f d ay. yesterday Miss from all the desperate of wi fe. the ” of the , onl w e e s dt u T p lare to be but the echo The us female complaint of " nothing to argument" m in e ici e l u i i e to ht of this alteration in the tone and the wom , a , nm must b ' e c a new one.

But we do deny most em had cally that the women of America, orthatthe 13 women of New York, are as body recklessness and extravagance, er as a body respon sible in any appreciable degree for the present cala mities of the financial and the commercial world. This very city of Gotham, whereof the name is a synonym throughout the land for all manner of gorgeous follies, and costly absurdities, and expen sive immoralities, teems this at moment with quiet, loving, sincere, and honourable worsen, who regu late their own households and share with their husbands the anxieties of his industrious career, and lighten by their counsel as well as by their sym pathy the burdens of his perplexing affairs. Hun dreds and thousands of these womea there are, and in every rank of life, in the circles of fashion as well as in the homes of mechanic toil, whom the trials of this critical season will find as the tria • l 11 of pro sperity have found them—. ' Nobly planned, to warn, to comfort and command." As the skies darken, as the need of retrenchment makes itself more sharply and more universally felt, as ono luxury after another must b e p u t d own b y t h e o pulent, and one comfort after another sacrificed by the merely well-to-do, this truth will be nobly vindicated in a thousand o s. hous h ld e No man who knows the sex and their ways will doubt that the cashmere will be relinquished, to say the least, quite as cheerfully as the " Morgan horse," and that Mrs. Smith will find it - quite as easy to countermand her soiree as Mr. S with to resign his membership at the club. The statistics of the past on this subject are eloquent enough to be of some use, perhaps, to those who doubt about the future, and who tremble afresh for Wall-street, whenever they think of Fifth-avenus. It has bccorue a commonplace of misogynist decla mation, for instance, to aver that the " excessive importations of superfluous goods from foreign countries," to which a certain set of economists choose to trace our present disorders, have been provoked by the extravagance of our women Crinoline and moire, gloves and feathers, fans and furbelows, kickshaws and gewgaws these have ruined us 1 These have drained I us of our western wheat and Californian gold, to 9 give us in return only hotel flirtations and watering-place polkas. Let us see how this matter stands. For the fiscal year 1855-6, the importations of silk goods into this country amounted to 25,200,651 dols. Truly a "parlous" sera and a tremendouslY effective figure of speech for a "sermon on the times" or a lecture on the ladies! But sta tistics are like puddings, the proof of their value is only to be got at by discueeion, Out of these mil lions of dollars worth of silk there are certain " masculinities" to be deducted. We must abstrac therefrom all the sleeve and shirt-lining,s of some 4,000,000 of male coats, all the cravats and waist coats of silk that the American men from Maine to California contrive in a twelvemonth to consume, remembering when we make the sum that the " black satin waistcoat" may almost be considered as a " national costume" in certain portions of out beloved country, all the mystical ribbons and aprons of all the orders and lodges which sw .rm is the land, all the flags and banners in which w* Americans so extravagantly delight, together with such silken vanities in the way of cushions and cur tains, &cc., as are common to both sexes. Allow ing less than 2,250,000 dols for all these things, we have a total of 23,000,000 dols spent by out women in silks. Is this extravagant ? At an ave rage of two dollars per yard in price the quantity *if silk thus represented would be 11,500,000 yards, equal,—as a reasonable young lady assures us, t 1,000,000 of silk dresses made very moderately. Now, there were in the United States in 1850 just 3,363,427 houses occupied by free persons. Of these houses it is a low estimate to assume than 1,500,000 were tenanted by families whose incomes averaged 1,000 dole per annum. We have, there fore, the proof before us that, out of 1,500,000 households whose resources would certainly justify the expense, only two-thirds can possibly have in dulged themselves in the purchase of a single silk dress during the years 185&-7. Again, our importation of gloves in the same dm amoukted to 1,344,551 dots. This comprises the value of gloves of all kinds end sizes, and if we limit the men and children to the 344,550 dols, it gives us just a singlegmillion of dollars spent upon the defence and ornament of the 8,000,000 of white hands upon which 6,000,000 of adult male lips kept constantly swearing fealty for 12 long months. Thread laces are certainly in modern times a purely female gaud, though the legend still survives in this city of a gentleman whose nuptial garments were made beauteous with borders of point ; and thread laces are costly. Yet in 1856-7 our account fur this triviality rose only to 410,591 dols, against a purely masculine expenditure of 576,435 dols for fancy fo reign fire-arm ! Much was said last year of the fe male expenditure in furs, but the remorseless tables of the Treasury set off against 605,607 dols of gar ment furs 1,755,704 dols imported by masculin e hat ters. The embroideries of the year constitute a serious item, rising to 4,604,353 dols, bnt it is per haps as well that no observations thereupon should be indulged by us, who spent at the same time 4,754,582 dols in cigars and foreign smoking tobac co, and who must bear pretty largely the responsi bility of disbursing over 7,500,000 dols for foreign wines and spirits. Our space forbids us from pushing these compa risons so far as they might with advantage be car ried. It would be unprofitable, for example, to dwell upon the fact that the total amount of our expenditure for forelen luxuries of all kinds during the year 1855-6 does not reach the sum of 50,000,000 dols., while our national income from the rated property of the country, if calculated at 6 per cent., rose during the same period to 422,293,750 dollars. But the figures which we have given may at least suffice to satisfy the most captious and the most querulous of the eons of Adam that when he rails upon the women as the cause of his troubles, he is only "darkening counsel by words without knowledge," and contributing a new e'e ment of stupidity and misconception to that confu sion of ideas which is the most dangerous as well as the most humiliating feature of our present national crisis. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. On Saturday afternoon the troops belonging to the third battalion of the 60th Rifles, who are under orders to embark for India, were inspected at Chat ham by Colonel W. H. Eden, commandant of the garrison. They will leave Chatham this morning and embark at Gravesend on board the Indomitable for Madras. Ensign W. L. K. Ogilvy and Ensign H. St. George Barton, 60th Rifles, go out iu charge of the reinforcements. Information has been received at the headquarters of tho Medical Staff Corps. Chatham, that the autho rities at the War-office have it in contemplation to eend a large body of stewards, wardnaastev, and orderlies to Alexandria, for the purpose of being employed in the transit of the troops who are pro ()ceding overland to India, and also of rendering assistance to the sick and wounded soldiers who are returning from India. On Saturday 100 recruits arrived at Chatham Bar racks from th• recruiting districts of London, Bris tol, and Liverpool, York, making a total of up wards of 400 who joined the Ist, 2d, and 3d bat talions during the past week. A troop of the 15th Hussars have left Norwich en route for Coventry. . . Large numbers of - recruits continue to arrive at the Colchester Camp, and a portion of the second battalion of the troops now in camp are about to be despatchedto India. Major-General Lawrence, who has commanded the Camp forsome time, hss received another appointment in the south-eastern district. The president of the general court-martial which recently assembled at Chatham Garrison for the trial of Ensign T. Stanley Mitchell, 89th Regt., on a charge of intoxicition when on duty, has received an intimation that in consequence of the prisoner having refused to appear before the court, her Majesty has directed his dismissal from the army. A. general court-martial assembled at the Royal Marine head-quarters, Woolwich, on Thursday, for The trial of First Lieutenant Sharp, on an indict meut preferred against him by kis commanding officer, charging him with conduct unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentleman. The mem bers of the court were—Col. Stransharn, president; Lieut.-Col. Congdon, Brevet-Major Fraser, Bre vet-Major Elliott, Captains Bunee, Harris, Wear- I thy, and Willson, First Lieut. Pritchard, all of the Royal Marine Light Infantry, and three lieutenant colonels and one major of the Royal Artillery. Lieut. and Adjutant Fraser, R.M.. acted as De puty-Judge-Advocate. The court was occupied the whole of Thursday and Friday in receiving evidence for the prosecution, which wai to the effect that the prisoner had absented himself from duty► without leave, and had endeavoured to justify his conduct by a series of false statements to his commanding officer. On Saturday the prisoner read his defence, declaring his innocence, and referring to his hitherto unblemished character. The judgment of the Court will be forwarded to-day fur the approval of tho Lords Commissioners. A detachment, consisting of Lieutenant Rideout 1 sergeant and 42 gunners of the Royal Horse Ar tillery, Woolwich, have received orders to eushat k on board the transport John Marshall, at Graves end, for Calcutta, for the purpose of filling up va cancies in two troops there. _ . Major-General Sir Frederick Love last week in spected the depot battalions et4tioned in Limerick, and ordered the 2d Bat alion of the Buffs, which has been raised under Lieut.-Col. Maude, C. 8., in an incredibly short space of time, to hold itself in readi ness to proceed to England. The new battalion pro mises to be a very tine regiment, and is already above the establishment, 650. The head-quarters are still at Corfu, and are suffering severely from fevers and ophthalmia. In a few days a large number of drafts from seve ral regiments, including the 21st, 71st, 46th, 48th, 14th, 28th, and 57th, in all about 600 men, will be assembled in Cork for embarkation en board her Majesty's ship Urgent- Their destination is for service in the Mediterranean. The sailing transport Starr, of Halifax, sailed on Saturday from Woolwich Arsenal with a cargo of gun carriages and stores for Bermuda. Her Majesty's sailing corvette Brilliant, 26, Capt. Paynter, arrived at Spithead on Saturday afternoon from the West India station, having been ordered home on account of yellow fever attacking her crew most virulently at Grenada. She lost the Rev. T. H. Watson, chaplain and naval instructor, and 34 men by that plague, and had in all 102 cases. She left Halifax on the 18th of October, and Grenada on the 12th of September. At Hali fax were her Majesty's ships Indus, 72 (flag), Ata lanta, 18, and Buzzard, 6. The surveying steam vessel Colombia had been paid off at Halifax, and her officers and crew sent home by the packet. The paddle-wheel steam-sloop Styx, 6, returned on Saturday to Plyinou.li Sound, from Ferrol, where she left the steam-frigate Valorous, 16, in a ttendance ou the Turkish line-of-bat tle ship Fethie (Victory), which experienced a storm in the Bay of Biscay, and had been supplied with a new rudder, and was receiving a new foretopmast and other spars. She may be expected shortly at Plymouth to be fitted with machinery and a screw propeller. The steam store-ship Urgent, from Portsmouth, arrived in Plymouth Sound on Saturday. Two companies of artillery will proceed this week for India by the overland route, with au infantry regiment and a large quantity of ball and cannon cartridge, which has been prepared at the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, and three other companies will embark on board the Indomitable at Woolwich and a screw steam vessel at Gravesend. The ave Qua. ~z l LIVERPOOL, SATURPAY;NOI:;: : • The United States' mail steamship Aflaittio ar rived this afternoon, with advices qp3.' gew±o . to the 27th ult. The Baltic and the Borussa bad arrived:seu The Washington correspondent of the New yon Courier and Inquirer is of opinion that if Walker find tramport by sea unattainable, nothing is more-. probaqe toan that he will endeavour to turn his Texan levies upon Mexico, not only iu the hope of conquest, but in order t revenge Himself for his - shameful defeat iti Lower Califyrnia. The Mayor of New York had issued a proclama tion in which he says : We have over 200,000 persons in this city who, either directly or indirectly, depend for subsistence upon, manual labour. If the present want of employment, continue many must rely upon either public or private charity, and I fear that not a few will resort to violence and force rather than submit to either of these preca rious and humiliating dependencies. A severe btorm prevailed during the 25th and 26th. It is. announced that the Governor of Georgia, would whhhold any aution a.jaiust the suspended banks until the meeting of the Legislature. Advices from Nieiragua state that all Americans suspected of sympathising with Walker had been expelled the coun7ry, and we - at preparations Were being made by President Martinez to resist, a Fili bustering invasion. The .New York Courier and Enquirer of th e 26tli. remarks that, nowitosancling tiie daily reports, that "financial and commercial affairs were getting easier," and that "a more cherfnl fe , -ling was maui , fested," commercial affairs had made but little pro gress in the direction of sound and permain.ent im provement. "The next weekly stat ement," it says— " Will show whether the banks have had the resoluJ tion to carry cut their asserted int,ntion of increasing loans and et extending the circulation of state currency. We know already that the litter has been partly fru-, troted, in o niequence of the adoption of the plan to pay daily balances in currency, and that we have already nearly three millions of state currency in the vaults of the Metropolitan Batik." It does not believe that it would be advisable' to resume specie payments at present s with such an unsettled financial condition, both at home and abroad. It thinks, however, that if the banks, by a liberal course, and by a total abandonment - of their present selfish policy, could get the co-opera tion of the community, specie payment could safely be resumed. The Courier and lnquirier gives some tabular returns showing that the hoidera of State bunds have ample security, apart from State credit and honour. The total debts atuonnted. to 238,902,542 d As., while the taxable property in 1840 was 6,580,000,000 dols. The amount of bullion in the coffers of the Bos ton banks when they suspended was 2,461,000 dols. ; on the 24th it had eaetie.:.' 2,888,100 dols. The ew York Times of the 26th says : " Tee money-market was easier at the close of last week to moderate dealers at bank. The c;yuntry circulation is adding to the discount ability of the city, and although the heavy mercantile firms already in embarrassments are not relieved by it, the came is differeut with trade generaly. The stuck-market is depressed by the foreign accounts—the news of dearer money in England and the poasihi ity of embarrassment to some of the American houses being actively employed by the spectators against a rise. There were several heavy failures rumoured on Saturday, but Ilene so far verified as to authorize the use of names. The domestic exchanges w;th Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Richmond were wore. The European exchanges from 1 to 2 per cent, higher for select bills. The pick of Mils on London sold at 105 per cent. The range, however, continues wide, and sales were made at 101 to 1034 to 105 at 60 days, and 106 ,0 1064 for bills 20 to 30 days to run. Tne feeling was less troubled on Saturday in regard to the return of bills drawn in September and early in this month on Liverpool and London. The agents in this city of the two or three Scotch banks and the correspondents of the London joint stock banks have drawn little or nothing which was nut under acceptance at the latest date. These banks are of undoubted strength. The standard bank ing firms who draw on Peabody Browns, Dennistoun, Fielder:, and others, are under no apprehension es to their friends on he other side, nor ought the public to be, in view of their known strength. The weekly import of dry you A. has laden cpite Jew, while the export list of diinestic produce and articles of foreign growth re• turned for a better market than they find here is on the increase. Thu rainy weather on Saturday was against a vigorous business in the general produce markets. " The falling off in the freight and paseenger business among the various roilroai and steamboaLlinee running out of this city presents in a striking light the extent to which the whole business of the country has been af fected by the revulsion. : , ,There is scarcely one that has not lost from one-third to two-thirds of its business dur ing the three weeks of October. " Tire Govern r of Missouri is for further strong and direct measures to secure the prompt payment of inte rest on the public debt, amd favour, the stoppage of the issue to the railways under par. in addition to the pro swat sinking and interest funds, provided by the last Le gislature, he suggests that a direct tax be levied an the whole property of the State, at a rate to render certain, beyond all contingency, the payment of interest." According to the New York Tribune, exchange closed on the evening of the 24th at 98 to 103, with some leading drawers asking higher figures. The Nees York Evening Mirror of the 26th says : " The bank statement is encouraging. It is supposed that before the 20 days are out for the date of suspension our principal banks will resume specie payments. A largo sum has arrived by the Baltic, and large sums are expected by the next steamers." In the absence of a more trustworthy authority we quote the following from the .New York He? aid of the 27th : " There was no movement of consequence in any lead ing stock security, and the operations were principally for cash. The European advicei appear to have had very little effect upon our finances, one way or the other. The feeling in the street was so much better than generally anticipated that the market actually improved under the favourable influence. We hear of orders from Europe to purchase our stocks, limited at prices considerably above those now current. We learn that the Treasurer of North Carolina offers to pay now, in the currency of the State, at Raleigh, the coupons due next January in New York. Those who prefer to wait until the new year will find the funde here at the Bank of the Republic ; those who want the money now can obtain North Carolina bank bills at once by seeding their ceupons ~n to Raleigh for collection. " Money was very stringent in Baltimore on Saturday. Exchange on New York was in active request at 7 to 8 per cent premium ; on Boston 6 per cent. ; Peiladelphia, 3i to 4 ; and gold, at 71 to S per cent. Silver, in small lute, 6 per cent. premium. Virginia banknotes (old), 4 to 5 discount ; new, 6 to 18 ; Norte Carolina, 8 to 10; 01.io and other western banks unsaleable. The returns of the banks of that city for the week ending Oct. 24, 1857. compared with the previous week, exhibit the following changes : Decrease in loans and discounts Increase in specie 2,568 413 Decrease in circulation.. Increase in deposits, actual 5,177,883 "A number of New York merchants called upon the secretary of the Treeeury yesterday morning, and gave their visws as to the present condition of affairs. Al thoogh the entries at toe Custom-house last week wore as large as usual these importations were to fill orders sent out three or four months ago. These gentlemen as scrod the Secretary that not an order had left New York for the past 40 days, and that December would mark the While, off in the current receipts. They fur ther stated that immense quantities of goods would be reshipped to Europe. The New York Express of the 27th reports that no bills had been returned by the Baltic. bills were higher ; the chief business was at 103, but some names were held as high as 105. Three of the leading banks suspended at St. Louis on the 26th. The suspension of Beebe and Brother, of New York, is announced. Also the bank of the State of Missouri, the Merchants' Bank, and the Southern Bas k. The following were the latest quotations oi' stocks ; Virginia Sixes, 77 74 ; Michigan State Sixes, 80 ; Ouio State Sixes, 1869, 924 ; New York State Sixes, 1860, 98; Tennessee State Sixes, 1890, 70; Mississippi State Sixes, 651 651 ; Erie Railroad Company's Bonds, 1862, 25; Nasbau Bank, 61 ; New York Central Rail. road, 604 60 601 60 61 601 601 ; Reading RaLroad, 259 26 ; Erie Railroad, 91 ; Cleveland and Toledo Railroad; 26J ; Chicago, 62 ; La Cro , s and Milwaukie Kailroad, i x 7l. w to it ri h . 6 ' • Michigan Southern and N or t he rn Indians , 19 19 1 i h v t e ieu t 18 3 / 4 ; Delaware and Hudson C an al Company, 8 8.

SUICIDE ON THE MIDLAND RAILWAY.--An inquest was held on 'Thur•tday night at Upper Elston, Glouces tershire, on the body of Dr Diot, of Bristol, a medical lecturer, who destroyed his own life by throwing hinieel • before a train on the Midland Railway, under the cir cumstances already described. It appeared from the evidence of his wile that he bad been somewhat disor der,d in his mind lately on arcount of pecuni..ry trnii!es ; he was very nervous and lov;-spirited, and told one person that he was mad, and wished to ga :P`O a lunatic asylum. Verdict accordingly. , EXTENSIVE ROBBERY.—The folio win been given relative to a serious robbery committed t St. Ives, Huntingdonshire, on the 29th of last month, when e e r l a i , n u tb it a h t o t n o e wn o . i from tbe cam g particularsahave a brown coloured carpet-bag was stolen . .
