To which are added It Marks on the wonders of the Microscope in revealing the hidden mysteries "of Life within Life," and its advantages in detecting, by urinary examination, the cause and effect of every variety of these emnplaints, 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 Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., Sce -7 he essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con equences resulting front 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 disc ace 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 tolnlth, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are rincipics of personal management which cannot be violated with , ut 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 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.

Fawke s is of November has worthy of pis-aller, and has given place as olt s e n n "-a n : daYB onl y a cardinal or arrogant emperor happened as an be —n unpopular public. The hero of yesterday altogether unexceptionable, and leaving nothin g to desired as the type of a consummate villaii% the execration that awaited him wherever effigy challenged notice. The most remarkable n o e f r V ie t Guys was a figure five or six times the siz•3 of lifer dressed up in the most extravagant style of theatrical finery, with a blackened face, and a huge placard on it s buck, with the words, "Nana Sahib, the murderer of wornt n and children at Cawnpere." There were save• ral minor representations of the same figure exhibited in various parts of the metropolis. At St. Paul's Ca thedral there was a special service, and few attendants, 1 but in nine-tenths of the London churches the state ser• Nico for the sth of November teal entirely disregarded. LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 6, 1857. LORD BIeOrIGILIM AT LIVERPOOL. LIVERPOOL, Nov. 5. The Right Hon. Lord Brougham and Vaux arrived at the Lime-street statiou yesterday afternoon from Leeds. He was met by Mr. W. Brown, M.P., Mr. J. C. Ewart, M.P., and a number of other gentlemen. His lordship accompanied Mr. Brown to . the residence of that gentleman, whose guest he is during his stay in Liver pool. This morning Lord Brougham visited the Free Library and Museum and other public institutions, proceeding shortly before 1 o'clock to the Liverpool Institute and School of Art for the purpose of inaugurating the Queen's College, recently formed in connection with that scholas tic establishment, between which and the University of London it now forma the connecting link. The noble lord was accompanied on the platform by Mr. W. Brown, M.P., Mr. J. Mollyneux, President of the Liverpool Literary Institute, Mr. G. Holt, tie Profes sors of the College, and other gentlemen. The noble lord was received with loud and reiterated cheering. Mr. BROWN, M.P., read letters from Lord Stanley (of Knowsley), the Bishop of Manchester, and other distinguished personages, expressing sympathy with the object of the meeting, but pleading prior engagements which prevented their atttendance. Lord BitouGHAM, on taking the chair, was vehemently applauded. It gives me very unfeigned pleasure (said the noble lord) to acknowledge to you with heartfelt thanks the great kindness with which you have re ceived me, and which, I will add, is not confined to those who are within these walls, but I have met with the same kindness wherever I have been since my arrival in Liverpool. We are met here upon a roost important occasion—the opening of an institu tion which is already in progress of flourishing, and which I do most devoutly hope, and I will add confi dently expect, will flourish more and more every year of its existence. (Cheers.) When I came 22 years Aga to lay the foundation-stone of that institution, in immediate connection with this Queen's College—l mean the then-called " Mechanics' Institution," afterwards the " Liverpool Institute"—l little expected that I should live to see the day when it should be con nected with a collegiate establishment, that establish ment connected with a university. (Cheers.) Now, were I at the present day to dwell upon the advantages of knowledge and the inestimable benefits of education I should be doing one of the most useless things that it would be possible for a man to bestow labour on—(hear) —as to the benefits of knowledge and education there is happily, nowadays, nothing whatever new to be said. (Hear.) Moreover, all persons admit the benefits of edu cation—all, or nearly all—and the few who still deny it may be said to be unconvertible. (Laughter and cheers.) Now, it is an old saying that to preach to the converted is a useless office, and I may add that to preach to the unconvertible is a thankless office. (Cheers.) I carefully, therefore, avoid address i ng either chess. But upon the inestimable advantage of this now institution suffer me to detain you for a few moments. Liverpool has been till now what the great capital of - London itself was till the year 1825 or 1826, wholly without the benefits of a college establishment f, r education. There were certain classes in the capital, and also in Liverpool—though per haps fewer in point of numbers—who educated their sons at the University of Oxford or Cambridge, or, in Ireland, at the Trinity College, Dublin, or in Scotland—but I will say something afterwards on that subject, which stands on another footing. But in London there was not for those who could not afford or did not choose to send their sons to Oxford or Cambridge—there was no means of obtaining good sound education in the walks of science, including the science of medicine itself. We then founded a University College, for many years called the Univer sity of London. Since that university has been estab lished, to which this college is now affiliated, as well as King's college, the younger sister of the University College —or, rather, I might call it the daughter, for one sprang out of the other—the University College of the metropolis affords the inestimable advantages of a sound education of all descriptions, classical as well as scientific, for those who either cannot or do not choose to send their eons to Oxford and Cambridge. (Cheers.) I said a minute ago that I paused upon what I had to observe respecting the Scotch colleges, for this reason—that the University College, being chiefly des tined to educate the sons of persons residing in the town itself, was placed naturally upon the same footing with the Edinburgh and Glasgow Colleges, and with that of Aberdeen, which educate the sons of persons resident upon Cie spot, and are, as it were, day schools, confer ring the inestimable advantages not only of an economi cal but also of a moral kind, to those sons who reside under the paternal roof, while they frequent classes of knowledge in the course of the day (Hear, hear,) Upon that footing mainly is the London University conducted, but it also gives the same advantage to those coming from the country, but who are in very small numbers compared with those who belong to London itself. All those who come from the country of course live in lodg ings and the boarding houses, as in Edinburgh and Glasgow—the great bulk living in their fathers' houses, with all the advantages, in point of morals as well as of mere economy—but the higher advantage in point of morals, being under the eye and superintendence of their parents, while they benefit by the instruction of the masters in the course of the day. Now, this is the plan of the Queen's College, to open which we are assembled to-lay. It will not refuse to receive those who board or lodge in the town, their parents not living in Liverpool ; but the bulk of those who attend it will naturally be the sons of Liverpool parents, and will enjoy those great ad vantages to which I have just adverted. That this should be otherwise than eminently successful, I hold, would be a slander upon the people of Liverpool to entertain the slightest doubt. (Cheers.) Professors well calcu lated to afford full instruction on all matters of science are already engaged to hold classes, and considering the short time during which it has been open, the college has had considerable success, but a success which I will venture to say will be as nothing compared with what in a very few years—l will even say months—will attend their very enlightened labours. I have said that, con nested with this college, is that institution which was n the enni greatng with hon - our op e opened di laying very small in y g ea th rs e a fo g u o nd a a n t d io o n f -s w to h n i e c . h I C h e a ro d 11 beginning, I think, as early as the year 1825, it occupied s room for evening classes only in Parker street ; some years afterwards it removed to the rooms now occupies by your Free Library and M useum in Slater-street ; and I cannot even in pass in g name that reading-room and museum, which I h ad g reat p leasure in inspecting this morning , without exp ressin g the gra tification which I felt on finding that o f the ver y no ble library of 22,000 volumes—confined to the reading-room, not lent out-500 or 600 daily are in the hands of young men attending that reading-room-100 at a time being all that the room can accommodate ; and that of t he other libraries connected with that institution, contain ingl2oo are issued day by day, of which it is not estimat i ng 17,000 volumes for lending out , upw ards o highly to say that not less than four readers benefit b y f these volumes. Let it be observe d, and i ti too b every one o a most gratifying circumstance, that when the public lending libraries were established, instead of diminish ing, _,n they greatly increased the number of readers at the d e . - tral Free Library. But when I mention that read ing. room, that museum. and that library I cannot pass over e another circumstance which the presence of m y moot steemed and hon. friend Mr. Brown would hav e sug gested had I not been aware of it before, though his pre sence imposes a restraint on me in expressing my fee l ings, which I know are all your feelings, with respect to his noble and wise as well as noble munificence. Now, connected with this mechanics' institute, now called the Liverpool Institute, which numbers, as I understand at this moment upon an average 1,400 members, I rejlice to find that it is self-supporting. So much could not have been predicted of the small beginnings to whiob I have adverted in Parker-street al.d in Slater-street before the year 1837, when the new institution was opened, but ever since that—except with respect to a debt of moderate amount now paid off by subscription —the whole of that institution has been supported in all its expenses by the payments of those echo benefit by it. (Cheers.) I will not enter into particulars except upon two points ; and the one is, that there are receiving the benefit of instruction in that institution and paying for it somewhere about 1,400, the greater of whom, almost the whole, are mechanics, artisans, or persons living by daily and weekly wages. (Hear, hear.) No doubt this is a great benefit to them, to their employers, and to the town and society of which they are members. But there are also, no doubt, defects to be observed. 1,400 for Liverpool is too small a number, and I confidently hope that it I should be spared to visit Liverpool a year or two hence I shall find that 1,400 more than doubled. (Loud cheers.) Having alluded to a girls' school which bad been established by Mr. G. Holt, his Lordship said, I only wish it were possible that I saw an immediate prospect of another kind of school for the benefit of per sons of a humble rank, to be taught not needlework, or embroidery, or arts of that description —things useful enough in their way—but ordinary common things, so as to qualify girls for being domestic servants. (Applause.) At a late congress which I attended at Birmingham w e had a most important and a most painful and heartrend ing paper read by one of the most eminent men of Lon don, Mr. Acton, who clearly showed what frightful effects upon the morals of that class of society are pro duced by the parents not stooping to let them be taught ordinary things, so as to make them fit for being do mestic servants, but must needs teach them needlework to starve upon threepence a day—to struggle for a few months, and, in some heartrending cases, even for a year cr two, with that utterly inadequate payment for their own support, and sometimes the support of an infant or a parent, who are in the end often driven from mere hunger into profligate courses. (Applause.)

The Duke of Newcastle performed the ceremony of laying the corner-stone of the new National Schools, now in course of erection at East Retford, on Tuesday last, and in the evening attended a meeting of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. His Grace delivered a speech in favour of the objects of the society, and, after reviewing the course of its operations in various parts of the world, said, their most excellent diocesan was about to address them upon the opera tions of the society among the heathens. He feared to encroach upon that province at all, and yet there was one part which appeared to belong to the subject allotted to him—he referred to the church in India. He was aware that it might be felt that the time had hardly come when any one could enter fully, he might say with freedom, on the sub ject of the church in India, because, in the first place, all the energies of this great empire must, for the present, be devoted to one object ; they must en deavour to put down the rebellious murderer in that land—they must endeavour as speedily as possible to establish British rule in that great country. The arm of powermust be exerted forthat purpose, not merely on account of the prestige of this great empire, not merely for any advantages which may be supposed to accrue from its position, but, as the Bishop of Oxford lately said at a similar meeting in the town of Liverpool, "As Christian men we are not justi fied in abandoning India ;" 120,000,000 had claims upon us ; and he believed we should be guilty, not only of treason to the State, but of treason to our religion and' oitr faith, if we were to abandon that continent to the atrocities of any government or any people who might, for any little time at least, succeed us in that empire. He believed, in fact he knew, that the greatest ignorance of India prevailed throughout English society, and those who knew the most felt they knew the least, and therefore were not prepared to dogmatize. At the same time he for one would not be found to blame those against whom culpability might be said to lie, though slightly, if at all, as he was little disposed to make accusations which time might prove could not be substantiated, or fall into the common habit of stigmatizing the Government for a gross derelic tion of duty with regard to the propagation of Christianity in India. He spoke, when ho said so, of the present moment, because he was prepared to maintain that great timidity and vacillation were shown on this subject. He was prepared to admit, nay, to assert, that while on the one hand mission ary officers were tolerated as a knd of service which he for one, either in his place in parliament or in any other assembly ; would equally and at any time be prepared most strongly to repudiate, yet, on the other hand, the privilege of missionaries of the church to reside in .hindostan was not given. Perhaps they would say great blame was attached to the Government for so doing ; but he was not prepared to say to what extent the conduct of the Government was improeor. He did not merely refer to those facts which core patent to all, and to the improvements which had been introduced with in the last few years in the habits and customs of the people by local government, but he took many instances as evincing the falsity of the statement that Christianity had bean absolutely repudiated by the Government. He spoke, of course, of late years ; and, not wishing to trespass upon their time, be would only refer to one sentence in a letter, written by the Rev. D. King, Principal of the College at Calcutta, after the dreadful massacre at Delhi. He said, intelligent and well-informed native converts held high and important positions —the highest of the mission. Now, he contended that those few words clearly proved that the con verts by the missionaries of this society had not been subjected to the pales and penalties spoken of. His object in referring to this was not to de fend the Government—that was no business of his ; but he was bound in fairness to mention it, and from the information which he at present possessed he could not join in those stron g terms of reproba tion which had been launched against them by many who had spoke and written on this subject. The most opposite opinions appeared to be held as to what we should do when the strong arm of power had been established in India. To judge from what they heard, some people would overcome all difficulties by being "all things to all men." That appeared to be the view which some people took of this matter, while others advocated a po licy of a totally diiferenes - character, which they hardly avowed though vainly hoped—he would not call it a propagation by sword and cannon, but a compulsory propagation of their creed. Now, as regarded the first of these matters they had cer tainly little temptation to attempt anything of the kind. How had measures of that kind succeeded already ? How had too great a deference to the religious feelings of the people been met ? Why, in this way—the greased cartridges bad been seized on as a pretext for rebellion, because, they said, we had been endeavouring to tamper with their faith —we had been establishing a dynasty opposed to theirs—the Mahomedan—by fire and sword. Well, then, that failed, or at all events, sys tems similar to it. As regarded compulsory con version, ho c ou ld h ar dl y th i n k t h at any man cou ld maintain that this principle was not alien to the habits of the people of England, and utterly alien to the genius of Christianity. We could not, with our enlightenment, adopt the theories of the Tal mud, nor, as Christians, imitate the fallacies of Mahomet. So, we wore not by compulsion of every kind to force these men into a false Christianity, whom we wore not able by conviction to bring to our faith. He said that Government power must neither be used to control nor disturb the religion of the natives. Complete toleration must be given. When he said toleration, he meant not only must compulsion of every kind be avoided, but that which was as bad, namely, seduction—which - lie could only call a broad species of fraud —must be equally avoided. They must neither attempt by compulsion nor by reward to meko Christians of men whom they could not convince. He believed the latter was as alien to the spirit of Christianity as the former. Any man who came to be so con vinced was little better than a believer in the faith he had just l e ft . B ut i f t h ey wore no t t o d o thi s they might at any rate avow th e i r f a ith en d ac t i n accordance with it. They might show their Chris tian conduct and they might adopt a Christian policy. They might show in private life those vir tues and characteristics which would induce the na tives to follow the belief of those whom they could not help admiring and respecting. Surely, it would ye no difficult matter for the natives to draw a contrast between the Christian lives and policy of those who now govern them, as compared with the monstrous lies and wickedness, the treachery and horrors perpetrated before their eyes by those who ruled them in former days. It was by such ex- F spread of Christianity would be effected in that great c o n :tt of t h l e n s d e-.... ia. by such conduct as that—the lle repeated that Government must not attempt to convert. The power of Go vernment must not be exe rc i se d f or t h at purpose . P o licy, faith, and duty forbade it. B u t that was not the case as regarded individuals. As regarded individuals, the Government was not only justified a s e continent but hound to give them fair play. It was through the agency o f men whom this society sent out that this great work must be car ried on. H e confessed to have seen, with some pain, allusions made in various quarters to what people were pleased to call the judgments of Provilence upon us for ou r sins in I ndia. Ho could not help feeling that there was something almost profane in putting these minute interpretations on the ways of the Almighty, that time, circumstance, and place were all to be fixed by our fallible eyes as to the objects of the Almighty and the sins for which He was especially afflicting us. No doubt, all suffering was the consequence of sin, but were they justified in saying that it was for some act which was cone , mated 30 years ago, by which some slight lied been placed on the Christian religion in India, that Pro vidence had visited us with this great calamity. We had sins enough in this country, in India, and else where to call for the visitation of the Almighty, without pretending to judge the exact cause of the calamity which had befallen us. It was enough for us to see the finger of God in the work, and, seeing it, to believe that it might conduce by God's bless ing to the propagation of the faiths of Christ in India. (Cheers.) They had often seen that these calamities, to which fallible men could attach none but the most disastrous consequences, had been the better harbinger of a day ; th e y h a d seen many of the greatest calamities turned into the greatest blessings ; and he ventured to hope that this cala mity, !great as it was, would be succeeded by that result. After some further observations, the noble duke resumed his seat amid loud cheers.

If it be sometimes desirable that the pttblic should ignore a danger prevalent amongst tiaem, lest un due cause of anxiety should arise, that argument ceases to be applicable when the danger has passed away. Moreover, if the cause of its passing away be traceable, if it be the consequence of reasoning and foresight, both applicable at a future time, then, so far from concealment of the fact being de sirable, to give it publicity is a duty. Asiatic cholera has been amongst us—has visited an eastern suburb, establishing itself in a row of cottages numbering 18 houses, occupied by a respect able class of operatives, silk printers, and others, with their families, averaging about five persons to each cottage. The locality is West Ham, and the cottages are situated about ten yards from the river Lea. In front and around them are marshy tracts, intersected by numerous ditches, some of which are sewers. The proximity of the river Lea has already been indicated ; and as to the condition of that river, for the benefit of those who require the infor mation, it is some degrees more impure than the worst part of the Thames., Each cottage consists of two roams on the ground floor, the same number up stairs, a back kitchen, and a back yard about 20 feet in depth, and a privy connected with a cess pool. The cottages, according to the testimony of Dr. Elliot, from whose report we glean these par ticulars, are clean and airy. In front of them, separated by a road about 20 feet wide, is a pump well accessible to all the inhabitants ; indeed, which furnished the whole of the water employed by them. About eight or nine yards still further in front is a. covered sewer, discharging its contents into the river Lea by a tidal ditch. Such are the conditions under which the houses in quest ion are placed ; and unfavourable conditions, sanitarilyregarded, they would 'sena to be. Between the 29th September and the 13th October, both in clusive, 14 cases of cholera occurred ; of which all except one (on the 10th) were unaccompanied with premonitory symptoms, and of which seven terminated fatally. The medical attendant looked upon the pump well with suspicion on his first visit, but on October 12th his convictions that the water had some connection with the disease ac quired such force, that ho ordered the pump handle to be removed. The quantity of water em ployed by the inhabitants of each house varied from , two to four pails daily. Though clear to the eye, it had a peculiar taste ; and chemical analysis de monstrated further impurities. It was alkaline ; held in solution much organio maqer, and con tained some inorganic ingredients not usually found in water. "It is very remarkable," Dr. Elliot goes on to state, in his communication to the Lancet, " that the sudden cessation of the attacks of cholera was, in point of'time, coincident with the cutting off the supply of that water. Tho pump-handle was removed on the 12th, and the last case of cholera occurred on the 13th." Still more worthy of note is the fact, that, up to the period when the pump-handle was removed, the disease had been acquiring force ; therefore the cutting off the water supply was assuredly not a mere coincidence, but a true cause of the subse quent cessation of the malady. Not only were the attacks increasing in frequency up to the 12th, but also in malignity. Moreover, as Dr. Elliot perti nently observes—" This sudden interruption or termination of cholera, after a duration of 15 days only, is by no means the usual course of that disease." A clearer train of evidence against that sewage laden water, as having generated the disease, can hardly be imagined. If the hypothesis of local emanations be adopted, then no explanation is fur nished of the restriction of the outbreak to one single row of cottages. Immediately contiguous i s a large silk factory, where four or five hundred men, women, and children are congregated ; and not far distant is a leather-cloth factory . giving employ ment to about 150 hands. The same atmos pheric causes which affected the cottagera must also have affectei the operatives. Amongst the six hundred factory people there has not occurred ono case of cholera, although the cottagers, num bering only one hundred, have furnished fourteen cases—fifty per cent. of which were fatal. One case of apparent exception only confirms the inference already adduced. Opposite the cottages is a public-house—the White Swan. A woman living therein was attacked with cholera, although she had never drunk of the water of that particular well. Nevertheless, inspection being made of the pump-water obtained from the yard of the White Swan, it was proved to be contaminated. A will more curious circumstance is the following :—On Friday, Oct. 9, a boy died, after twenty hour.' ill ness, at Pelton-place, Bromley. Having taken a long walk into the forest, together with his father, on his return he lagged behind. This awakened his father's attention. Turning to ascertain what had become of the boy, he discovered him to have been drinking at the ill-starred pump ! The foregoing are truths which in our estimation cannot be too extensively diffused. Until lately the public notion about cholera has prevailed that it is a destiny, a fate ; something removed from the laws of causation altogether; a disease against which precautions are unavailing, and the best course of action consists in ignoring its presence, or banishing the thoughts of it. Such demeanour was not ra tional at any time, though for a season it might have been politic. In the presence of facts like those supplied by the West Ham evidence such a course would neither be rational nor politic. Cho lera is no longer the mystery it was. It may be referred to the list of causations like other diseases, and the causes very generally are such as admit of removal. THE GOVERNOR-OENERAL OF INDIA. (From the Times ) Lord Granville's defence of the Governor-Ge neral of India at the Mansion-house on Wednes day was necessarily so full of reserves and qualifications that it furnishes the public with little more knowledge on the subject than they possessed before. That Lord Canning's position became unexpectedly arduous, that he was sud denly confronted with perils of unexampled mag nitude, that the ordinary duties of his office were abruptly exchanged for responsibilities of the most awful character, and that under such circumstances ho has fair claims upon the consideration of his countrymen—all these are points commanding general acknowledgment and assent. It is un doubtedly true also, as Lord Granville remarks, that the opinions which we involuntarily form upon the receipt of intelligence from India might under go material modifications if we were in possession of a more complete and comprehensive knowledge of facts. This argument, however, which is almost invariably empl lye(' in depreciation of popular cen sure, would, if rigidly applied, prevent the forma tion of any opieion at all. Complete knowledge never come'. Though the contests and recrimina tions occasioned by the Crimean campaigns are now consigned to oblivion, it cannot be said that we have ever yet arrived at what all parties would call truth ; and if we were to reserve our judgment in the pre sent case for the time when the history of the Bengal mutinies should have been unexceptionably eluci dated, the whole existing generation might descend to its grave with the subject still unexamined. It is of no use entering upon any defence of the practice actually prevailing in this respect, for the simple reason that it is unavoidable. Men must talk and criticise, especially when the events are so momen tous and the interests excited so deep. They cau -1 not and will not wait for an inquiry which may or may not occur a year or two hence, and which may or may not result in any positive decision. They must express their views at once, though they hold themselves open to information and correction ; and, as a matter of fact, we must needs say that li time and investigation often do little more than confirm the instinctive impressions of the public. We very much doubt whether the conduct of the Indian Government will appear this day twelve months in a light substantially differing from that in which it stands at present. Of course, there are many particulars of which we are ignorant, especi ally those concerning deliberations of State, but events have now been spread over so many months, the policy of Government has bein indicated by so many acts, and all these transactions have been re ported and illustrated by such an infinity of authen tic and independent communisations, that we sus pect the substance of the case is pretty well before us. Judged by these impressions, the conduct of Lord Canning would receive, upon the whole, no unfavourable verdict. It is impossible, indeed, to quibble or wrangle over the one weighty fact which Lord Granvillo adduced—the fact of success, for it must be so called, notwithstanding all the calami ties intervening, when a Governor-General of India unaided by the arrival of a single battalion from England, has first withstood and then crushed in its stronghold a revolt of 100,000 native soldiers. If at the outbreak of the mutiny we had been told. in this country that it would culinaeo the whole of [PRlcgc 40, STAMPED 5J .] ' the Bengal army, and that the army of Bombay y would show manifest s i gns of sympathy before the first -column of reinf orcements could reach India from these shores, it cannot be denied that the cap , ture of Delhi and the general discomfiture of the in surgents would have been regarded as contingencies calling for great satisfaction. If we proceed further, too, in the scrutiny of these transactions, we find ample matter for approbation in the unremitting energy by which succours were collected at Calcutta and despatched to the Upper Provinces. There was not a station or settlement within reach of the Governor-General from which he did not draw every available bayonet, and, as far as yet appears, with all practicable despatch. This, in fact, at the moment was the chief duty of Government. The one great object was to get troops together, to liberate our besieged garrisons, and to reinforce the army before Delhi: We failed, unhappily, to reach Cawn pore in time for the rescue, but Lucknow we de vou'ly trust has been relieved, and Delhi has been actually carried by storm. • It was when these first convulsive struggles for self-preservation were exchanged for the more ordi nary proceedings of Government that • the chief occasion for dissatisfaction with Lord Canning's policy appears to have arisen. For this dissatis faction we still think, notwithstanding Lord Gran ville's deprecation, that there was sufficient cause. It is not merely in a particular proclamation o particular appointment that objectionable featu are discernible, but in the concurrence and tenour of a succession of acts. What scandalised and exasperated the people of this country was the apparent impress of a narrow, traditionary,' and exploded policy upon the actual proceedings of Government at this terrible crisis. The worst spirit of the old Indian civil service became sud denly visible in the acts of the Administration, to the prejudice and disparagement of our strug gling troops, almost before the death-grapple could be said to have bean decided. It was not that the proclamation which Lord Gran ville analysed was theoretically unjust, but that it was out of place altogether, and be trayed unwelcome principles in its terms and its tone. The policy of the Government at, this period seemed to indicate' the general ascend ancy of a spirit opposed to the dictates of just tice, and based only on the interests of a class. The magnitude of the revolution, which had at first been denied, was depreciated ; the dreadful inci dents of the revolt were alluded to in commonplace terms, and great anxiety was shown so to represent and arrange matters that the action of our military commanders should give place as soon as possible not merely to civil government, but to the routine of an administration as little as possible undis turbed. Perhaps the distinctions drawn in the Government proclamation may be logically justi fiable, but people in this country would rather have seen the matter left to our Generals in the field. We could have wished that instead of appointments of civilians and promotions of Mahommedans---in stead of elaborate edicts respecting the appoint ' ment of penalties, the prominent features of Lord Canning's policy had been a bold recognition of the real state of affairs, and a decisive support of those men on whom the control of India now actually rests. We wish Col. Neill bad been a more con spicuous figure than such an Indo-maniac as Mr. Grant, and that the fine shades and delicate dis criminations of mutiny and murder had been left to the cognisance of our officers on the spot. The policy of old Indian administrators is per fectly natural. They wish to make something less than a revolution out of the matter, and to preserve their own privileges and functions as far unimpaired as may be. But the system is now past and gone. India can never again be the India of former times, though we hope it may be something far better. We have never been among the detractors of Indian statesmen. For the general government of that country there is much to be said,—more, by far, than many people ap pear to conceive. To the status quo, however, we can never now return. We cannot have a dominant Sepoy army, a system of centralization affecting even the authority of regimental officers themselves, or a government iu which power and responsibility are so divided that no effective share is to be found in any one pairof hands. In so far as the old policy of Indian administration rests upon these traditions it must perish, and any attempt to revive or pre serve it made at the expense of that military power to which we now look for the pacification of our Eastern Empire will infallibly evoke the discontent and remonstrances of the yublfe: RISE IN THE RATE OF DISCOUNT. (From the Times City Article.) The Bank of England yesterday raised their charge fur discount front 8 per cent., which was adopted on the 19th ult., to the unprecedented rate of 9 per cent. The public were fully prepared for the measure, and in some quarters it had been anticipated even that the movement would not have been to 9 per cent. for bills not having more than 60 days to run, and 10 per cent. for loager descriptions. That the latter restriction wouldnot have proved too strong seems already to have been indicated by the fact that the demand has shown little, if any, diminu tion. As the public have now an amount of notes in their hands equal to any recent average, and busi ness has been for some time uudergeing rapid con traction, this continued pressure must be mainly caused by alarm and the consequent desire of every person to be over supplied. The question whether any further rise will be necessary will therefore greatly depend upon the extent to which this action is carried. If the mercantile community, instead of recognising from what they have already witnessed of the course of the Bank that they are in no danger of being suddenly shut out from accommodation, will pertinaciously rush to obtain a double share, any inconvenience they may sustain will he of their own creating. The Bank can undertake to provide for wants, but not for fears. There is not the slightest provocative to panic, and whether such a humiliat ing exhibition of national ignorance and folly can now take place is a question rational people would hardly have entertained a few we!ks back. The old opponents of the Bank Charter Act, however, are beginning to bustle in the storm, and it is im possible to feel certain on any point. One of their great modes of creating fright is by pointing to the low state of the reserve of unemployed notes, as if when what is exhausted the Bank would be obliged to cease discounting altogether. But the fact is that the Bank could, under such circuinstlnc still continue their discounts on as groat a scale as ever, since their bills receivable each - clay of course on the average bring in as large a total as they are ordinarily asked to let out. They oould not increase the scale, but no one will sup pose that with a contraction of business in all quar ters any increase can be required. There is conse quently not the shadow of a pretext for any cry for Government palliatives. Some persons who have shown every disposition to assist in allayin g idle. apprehensions have nevertheless suggested that Government should intimate their readiness to grant a conditional power of relaxation in the same manner as in 1847—that is, by a notification that upon payment of a certain rate sufficiently high to prevent needless applications the public should be allowed to;have any extent of discount they might require, without regard to the increase or decrease of the stock of bullion. But the public have never in the present crisis been without an assurance equally strong. It is admitted that it does not matter how high the rate may be, so long as the certainty is given that money can be had at some rate. When has this certainty been called in ques tion 1 The very object of the Bank in each succes sive advance is to maintain a position to enable them to comply with every legitimate application, and there can be no doubt of this being effected, unless au insane demand upon them should prevent it. It may, however, be asked, " W h y not avcrt the chance of such folly by a Government notice that would calm everybody Grant that in priu eipeloeuiltdwdoeunldo hbaermht:manildiamtinigghtanpdrevreidnt icumloeue;;lsntiisll it . chief." This announcement can scarcely be re quisite. All classes of the public must be well aware that if the nation should so pitiably lose its self-possession as to give way to panic there is but one remedy, and that the Government will be com pelled to adopt it. There can be no need, however, by a formal proceeding to proclaim a belief that the financial sense - of the nation is still so low as to c ause the degrading contingency to be regarded no t o n s e s x ib io l en, withbut probable. on l ly n a c s o 1 13 1 announcement yes terday no one can fail to see cause of congratulation at the fact of a h eavy far been avoided. loan to India laving thus four pillions sterling, since afforded to that t Even the assistance already country-...amounting cessationnti n g to of T h r e e e p a o y r_ ments ordinarily due from it must, equally with the specie in course of despatch, be regarded as a contribution on our part—has seriously aggravated the difficulties o f th o crisis, and if a loan of five or ten millions in addition had been contracted we Phould unclenbtedly, for the Plo of everything uLe . eoth to the Indian peopkikA -4‘: rlit - 6- it - 1-70014':' tiers at Calcutta, have plduglealjbe the empire into confusoii: ; 114,1 pity ;:,.tttiN is - ' , r" pals the future, it may bei i'c;:teectat •'t thkidia l p, r i..lltertt A to 9 per cent. will have thgta•AtefT4;47of ceatOr, the Home Government to insist ila*--tliaiii' .. fir ti ciers, before availing themselves 4.tlic,xisy 75ktliod lof drawing upon what they fancy to be the ex h ata t- less resources of England, shall be coinpLlled to rat tempt the discovery wh-ther a country whi,h f r a long time has been absorbing silver from us at the rate of six millions per annum cannot be made to provide in some degree for the cost of its own disturbances. Periods of insurrection are precisely those in which a suspension of specie payments a not only legitimate, but in most cases, as a matter of justice, indispensable ; and even if it were an unmixed evil, instead of a silu ary pia caution, it would be better that the natives of India should be subjected to the slight inconvenience of receiving their dividends and other claims in inter st-bearing but temporarily inconvertible paper, than that the commerce of Europe and America should be con vulsed, and thousands of families be thrown out of employment, in order that there should be no dis comfort on that side, and no interruption to the facilities of hoardin g .

Would they abandon the country, or would the xholesorne stimulus of necessity yield its usual re sults ? We have supplied men and munitions, and India is rich enough to find in mey. There is no reason to assume that the issue of a nat-) circula ion oven on a largA Sale—supposing it requisite as a last reseurce.-4 circumstance) far from cereaita —would be attended with difficulty. The natives would be found sufficiently keen ta estimate the value of a Government no'e, carrying 6 or 7 per cent. interest, and receivable at par in the course of six or twelve months for revenue dues, and at the same time we should have the satisfae,ion of knowing that every one with paper of this descrip tion in his pocket would feel an access of loyalty and a proportionate desire for the maintenance of order. (From the Morning Post City Article.) The discount houses have raised the rate for money "at call" to 8 per cent. ' and, with seven days' notice, to 81 par cent. Th e National Discount Company offer 81 and 8 2 per cant. respectively for money at call, and at short notice. The jcint-st, , ck hanks have raised the rate of interest upon deposits to 8 per cent. per annum. It was generally under stood when the Bank rate was raised to 8 per cent. on the 19th ult., that, in the event of a further in crease in the minimum rate, no change would be made iu the interest allowed by the banks and dis count houses fur money placed . with them for em ployment. This intention has been frustrated by the action of one joint-stock hank, and much dis satisfaction has been expressed in consequence. That the rates offered by the discount establish ments and banks for money were sufficiently high at 7 to 71 per cent. per annum to bring in a supply of money can scarcely be doubted, but it is ques tionable whether the enforced advance of the tJrnas will not havo a contrary effect ; at all events it will deprive the discount establishment to a groat ex tent of the power' of competing with the Bank of England, as they have nut a sufficient margin of profit to admit of any groat reduction in the rate at which they will grant discounts to the commer cial community. The publio have, therefore, but little ground for thanlifulnoss in the selfish policy of the Bank to which we have alluded, however satisfied capitalists may be to gain an additional 1 per cent, on their money. THE AMERICAN PANIC. (Front the Derbyshire Courier.) The state of commercial affairs in the United States is such as has never been equalled within the tuetnory of man. - The New York City and State Banks have suspended specie payments in a body, and their example has been followed by the Banks and Bauking Companies of Boston, Baltimore, and Albany, and other places. Indeed the suspension of cash payments if, and must necessarily now be come, almost general. When Mr. Alexander Henry Wylie, an experi enced Liverpool merchant, was examined before the Committee of the House of Lords on the com mercial distress of 1847, he made this statement : " So far as I have been able to compare different systems of banking, and to look into the subject, I believe that in no part of the world whatever is there a system of banking more perfect than that now working under the General Banking Law of New York. It has now been in operation ten years ; and it is found to answer securely and pro fitably that is, profitably to the proprietary, and usefully to the public. The great peculiarity of the General Banking Law is, that it enables any party or partieo• 414.4* - - to - rum a Banking Association to do eo, on complying with certain provisions of the law—the principal of which is, the deposit with the State Comptroller of an amount of State Stock equal to the amount the projected Banking Asso ciation intends to issue." When this remarkable statement was made by a gentleman of commercial intelligence and experi ence, there were doubtless many persons prepared to believe that the Americans really had " profited by their past experience," and that they would feel sufficient confidence in security banks to abstain from any measures calculated to dimibish their sta bility, . . Tile result proves that under no system, however well contrived, can a circulating medium bo devised to ensure safety where it is placed upon a metallic basis. Had the New York banks been obliged to pay in notes issued by the United States Government, and receivable for taxes, with the option of paying in gold at its market price, they would have pos sessed a stability far greater than the deposit of any amount of State stock can confer. With the drain of gold, consequent on the silver drain, has come distrust, alarm, panio ;—till eventually all securities becoming depreciated to an extent which renders them no security at all, trade has been brought to an absolute stand-still. The United States Bank have now done the only thing which was left for them to do. They have suspended cash payments, as the Bank of England did in 1797. • This may, if properly managed, enable the country to get over the commercial crisis. It remains to be seen whether there be sufficient financial ability in the country to establish on the ruins of Bullionism a safe and steady system of unconvertible paper currency. If not, the im mediate pressure will be removed only to return at a subsequent period with increased violence and destruction of property and credit. STATE OF THE CURRENCY. ( From the Derbyshire Courier.) Nothing appears yet to check the exportation of silver. Large sums must be sent to India, and larger sums will, in all probability go to China. Our gold goes out of the country. But a worse misfortune has happened to us. ' Common sense has gone out of the country. How, othorwise, could it happen that such a state of things as that which we now see could be allowed to exist ? Since the fatal time, in 1816, when theorists and currency doctors began to tamper with the monetary system which had carried this country safely and prosperously through a period of un exampled difficulty and national expenditure, w have had warning upon warning to convince u that our present system is erroneous iu principle and most pernicious and ruinous in practice. Yet, here we are, in 1857, listening to the old exploded fallacies of the Peelites, and reaping the bitter fruits of their impracticable and contemp tible " experiments" on the currency. The Eng lish people appear to have learned little by the misery of 1819, by the ruin of 1825, by the de pressions of 1336 and 1837, and the panic o f 1847. It remains to be seen whether a little common sense in financial matters can be beate into them by the ruin now spreading throughou the country. How many solvent and pri nce ly commerc i a l houses, which years of patient and enterprising industry have establi-hel, have already !fallen victims. In Manchester, Bradford, Liverpool, and Glasgow there have been most destructive calami ties. It is evident that commercial experience and ability, with trade in its most "healthy" condition, and with the foituitous advantage of the immense treasures of precious metals brought in from Aus tralia, aro insufficient to withstand the pernicious operation of our absurd and childish monetary sYs tern. most injuriously on oar . - currency arrangements act end.
