IMPORTANT DISCOVERY OF A CURE FOR NERVOUS OR MINI) COMPLAINTS. Just Published, Fifth Thousand, and may be had ri OR NOTIIING, a PAMPHLET, on MIND and NERVOUS COMPLAINTS, and on the new and only • successful means of curing those obstinate maladies, as disco vered and employed by Mr. WM. ADAMS, 23, Doughty-street, Mecklenburgh-square, London. There are hundreds of persons who, in the midst of plenty,. are harrassed and annoyed by an endless variety of anomalous and painful feelings, which embitter existence, render life a daily misery, and'convert even social endearments into sources of irritation and pique. Such are solicited to read the above Pamphlet. In it they will perceive the necessity for and the advantagest of immediate recourse to the treatment, sanctioned by experience and by the testimonials of the cured. Will be sent to any address, post paid, on receipt of two stamps. TERMS.—The means of Cure can be sent to all parts of the world, with full directions, and the patient cured at home, or more expeditiously by a temporary residence in London. The only charge made is the averaged cost price of the means of Cure—One Guinea per week. Respectable but poor persons pay only half of the averaged cost price—Half a Guinea per week. TESTIMONIALS OF THE PUBLIC PRESS, " There are no diseases which have more puzzled the faculty than nervous complaints and insanity. Doctors have both been unable to account for them and to prescribe any means of cure. This darkness has, however, been cleared away by the clever author of the above pamphlet, in which he explains his theory of cure in a very rational manner, and we feel certain that it will induce many to apply to Mr. Adams for his able assistance."— The Chronicle, Dec., 1846.

FOR NOTHING. APAMPHLET "On the GREATEST DISCOVERY of the AGE," (says Coomm,) that is, "that the BRAIN is the seat of all Nervous or Mental Complaints." This was made by Dr. Willis Moseley, (of Cambridge University,) before Gall, and on his successful treatment of these complaints, with cases, testimonials, &c., and will frank it to every address if a stamp is enclosed to 18, Bloomsbury-street, Bedford-square, London. And if 16 stamps are sent, he will return the sth edition of his large work, 12 CHAPTERS on the CURE of NERVOUS or MIND COMPLAINTS, with a Chapter on .Self-management. . This work is declared by Professor Savage, Surgeon, to be the best book we have on Nervousness. At home from 11 to 3. This GREAT ANATOMICAL DISCOVERY was followed by his second great discovery. The means of removing all Ner vous or Mental Disease. By these discoveries he cured himself of a deep rooted Nervous Complaint of 14 years duration. And, as 30 years ago nobody could cure these comp'aints, or can now, but himself, he has for 30 years cured them frombenevo lefice rather than gain ; and, out of 14,000 nobles, nobleses, M.P.'s, admirals, generals, barristers, clergymen, physicians, surgeons, tradesmen, &c. &c., he knows not 20 uncured wh o have followed his advice. All therefore may now apply per sonally, or by letter, with more confidence of a cure than of tooth ache, and especially of mental depression, debility and exhaustion, delusions, blood to the head, vertigo, groundless fear, failure of memory, incapacity for study, business, &c., inquietude, wretchedness, indecision, melancholy, thoughts of self-destruction, involuntary blushing, blasphemous thoughts, sleeplessness, &c. Insanity can be cured with almost equal certainty. "THE GREATEST BENEFIT MAN CAN BESTOW ON MAN IS TO EASE AND HEAL HIS DISTRESSED MIND." This has been the delightful employment of the Rev. Dr. 'Willis Mosely for 30 years ; and among the thousands he has cured of Nervousness, he with pleasure names a late Member of Parliament, who after having 30 physicians in vain for five years, avowed his cure, and presented the Doctor with a check of .t - 250, and a niece of the late Lord Hill, who bad been ner vous 30 years, Sir J.

In the Minute of the Court of Directors of the East India Company, to the Bengal Government, dated the 7th of May, 1845, it is stated,—" That it cannot admit of question, that wherever railroad communication can be advantageously in troduced and maintained, it is eminently deserving the encou ragement and co-operation of the Government." The construction of any and every line of railroad within the East India Company's territories, must be undertaken with their sanction, and in subordination to such rules and regu lations as the local government under their authority may deem fit to enact ; and the operations contemplated by this company will, of course, be conducted in conformity with such regulations. In surveying the vast extent of territory embraced by the British dominions in India, with a view to the introduction of railroads into that country, it would appear obvious, that the local demarcations which have been found convenient in the administration of the Indian Governments should be kept in view. In raising the capital required to carry these under takings into execution, it will be necessary that the Directors of the companies which may be formed in this country should contain a large proportion of gentlemen possessed of local knowledge and experience in that part of India which is to form the scene of their operations; and in this view of the case, it seems natural that for the most efficient working of such projects, a separate Board should be formed in this country for the organization of railway operations within each of the Presldenries of Bengal, Madras, and Bombay, to act in conjunction with local committees of the Indian Presidencies ; each of such boards in England to contain s - ch n proportion as may be thought desirable of parties qual fled by residence and local knowledge of the different Presidencies, to afford useful and correct information upon the subjects brought before them. Impressed with these views, this Provisional Committee has been formed with the object of securing the introduction of the railwqy system into the territories under the Presidency of Madrag. In the minute of the Court of Directors above alluded to, it is stated to be their intention to depute to India a skilful Engineer, to be associated with two Engineer Officers in their owo service, to investigate the subject of railway communica tion in India, in all its bearings; and they add, that one object of this committee will be to suggest some feasible line, of moderate length, as an experiment for railroad communication in India. It is probtede that in no part of the East India Company's dominions will this subject be attained with so much ease and certainty as on the line of road from Ile!tarry to Madras; and it is to the construction of a railway between these points that the operations of the present Company are proposed, in the first instance, to be directed, with a view to accomplish the primary object of the preliminary investigation about to be undertaken by the Committee appointed by the East India Company. This line has all the requisites for an experimental railroad. The distance is moderate, being Two Hundred and Seventy Miles by the present winding route, and by this projected direct line the distance will only be Two Hundred Miles; and the country between the termini may be taken for all practical purposes as a level. There is already a substantial road raised, connecting Bellary, Cuddapah, and Madras, which has success fully proved the capability of such a work to withstand the peculiar sources of destructive action enumerated in the Court's minute as operating against the railway system in India—the termini of which places are military stations, and of great commercial importance; a large traffic on goods, passengers, troops and military stores already exists upon the road ; and it passes through a fertile and very populous country. This pro vince was one of our earliest acquisitions in the East. Since the rise of the British power in India it has enjoyed uninter rupted peace and tranquillity, and is, relatively to its extent, the most productive portion of our Indian Empire. The surveys and estimates already made by eminent engi neers contain the minutest details of the cost of construction of a single line of rail, upon a principle which has been found to be perfectly efficient in America. But it is considered that, however desirable such a construc tion maybe for the feeding lines that connect the thinly peopled and less cultivated tracts of the country with the main trunk lines upon which the largest portion of the traffic must always pass, a more substantial method of construction, and one more approaching than that found to answer best in Europe, will be required - upon the trunk lines, of which that from Bellary to Madras is the most important within the Madras territories. This part of the country is so singularly favourable fora rail ' road, that the cost of a single line with rails of the dimensions generally used in this country, will not exceed £5,000 a mile, and that, by fixing the available capital ut .t 1,000,000, it is con sidered that a sufficient fund wilt be provided to meet all the , possible contingencies that ran attend tht construction of the proposed line. The present population of the territories included in the Presidency of Madras exceeds 14,000,000. The line will pass through the country towards Hyderabad, the great cotton and indigo districts of Bellary, and also through the towns of Roopangoody, Hotoor, Wilgar-Gureor, Paundy, Calanuddy, Moochatota, Tandaperata, Tallypootatoor, Vattoor, Condytita, Baukrapp. Jummulmagoor ' lamalapoor, Wallar, rhenoor, Cuddapah, Matichuply, Sidhot, 1l nllailprltnlan, llo ' Blum, Washils, Cotepand, Mundaloor, Chi- Cotoor, 'flassoo, Polalcoor, Mtunbo!e, Avnce, Penpol nin, and Cholaveram, to Madras, and it will afford facilities for the transport to the coast of the produce of Mysore and North Arcot, consisting of sugar, tea, coffee, nut. lac, potatoes, corn, oil, seeds, grain of various kinds, and charcoal and firewood; towards the West it will facilitate communication with the cot ton tli.ricts of Salem and Coimbatire ; and towards the Smith with It,' fertile countries of Trichinopoly and Tanjore. The best cotton. that is raised in India ix produced in the Madras ' territories ; all that is required to enable it to enuipote success - fully with American eotten. is increased facility for bringin.. it - to the shipping ports in goad condition, and at sr moderate rate Of transiiert. which ( - an only be, effiDted by a railway . bye.

The same consequences must follow the introduction of railroads in India that have followed elsewhere, and already the results in every instance have far exceeded the expectations which the most sanguine speculator j would have ventured to form. - - - It is clearly shown that there can he no line of railway in Maims, to any extent, with which this line will not form a junction or connection. Rut independent unite for its support exists_ between Bellary. Cuddapalt, and Madras ; and whatever line of railway it may form a junction with, it will increase its traffic. It is so singularly situated as to be an independent line of railway for its own support. The system is but now m its infancy in Europe, and its pro gression hereafter no one can calculate. The same results must follow in every instance of the inteoaturtion of nouys into countries possessing a fertile soil, a good. climate, and a numerous and industrious population ; and, at t hi s t e oment, there is probably no portion of the globe where the introduc tion of railways will ultimately produce mo re i mportant re- Imlts than the British VOSSeSSiOnS in Inlli,. - The management of the atiairsof theComp uoy will be vested Board of Directors, in London, co-operating with a Lo ca l Committee of residents in Madras.

Kirkdale-road, March, 1847. WATER FROM WINDERMERE. TO THE EDITOR OP THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, As you have always taken the lead in the all-absorbing question of water, I have made a few calculations which are at your disposal if you think them worthwhile. The sta tistics, I believe, are correct. When the question was - first mooted, I thought of the practicability of going to Windermere lake for a supply that would be inexhausti ble, but the, magnitude of the scheme, and the immense cost made me give up the idea, but since the inquiry into the Rivington Pike scheme, facts have come out that I should think would make that scheme, if acted upon, equally expensive, from the great amount of compensa tion that will have to be paid to parties in that district, and as there can be no comparison in the quality of the water, I have again turned my attention to the subject. I would propose to take the water from the Leven, a stream that. flows from the lake, somewhere about Back barrow. Ido not know the height of that locality from the sea; it can be easily ascertained from the ordnance survey; but at all events it is very considerably higher than Liverpool. I take the distance to be about seventy six miles ; and I would suppose that the water should be conveyed along the railways in two pipes of twenty-four inches diameter. These would convey 11,178,000 gallows per diem, or rather more than thirty-seven gallons per diem for 300,000 inhabitants. Then comes the expenSe, which is enormous ; but if the towns through which it is conveyed were to have reservoirs,in connection with these pipes, erected, and take their supply from them, bearing a portion of the expense, it would not be so very stupendous a project. A pipe of 24 inches diameter, to stand the pressure of water, must be inches in thickness, and would weigh about 31011bs. per foot lineal; making the weight of one pipe one mile, 731 tons, 17 cwts., 3 qrs., 12 lbs. Weight. for 76 miles, 55,573 tons, 17 cwts., 0 qrs,,. 16 lbs.

We have a scheme however before us, which we prefer, of impounding the water on the hills of Cumberland, instead of drawing the supply required from Windermere Lake, and allowing the towns in Lan - - cashire to avail themselves of the supply, contributing of course their quota of the expense. We shall perhaps refer to this next week : in the mean time our correspondent's figures are satisfactory as showing that the expense of our plan will be below our original conception.—Ed. L. S.] SECOND EDITION. Slandard-office, Two o'clock. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET.—Tuis DAY. Although the wind is still unfavourable, we have re ceived into this port since Tuesday last a fair supply of Wheat, and a few parcels of Grain coastwise; but, except a moderate quantity of Barley from Europe, and 4070 qrs. of Beans from Egypt, the arrivals of foreign produce are very inconsiderable; the exports hence to Ireland, however, are going on daily, and rapidly diminishing the stocks here. The trade has been less animated to-day : the advanced prices for Wheat have, however, been supported, and Flour, though not actively in demand, maintains the cur rency of the close of the week. FEARFUL COLLIERY ACCIDENT. We regret to record a fearful coalpit accident, attended'. with the loss of nearly eighty lives, which took place on Friday afternoon at the Great Ardsley Main or Oaks Colliery, near Bar n sl e y. Ab ou t three o'clock, several persons near the mouth of the pit were alarmed by a terrific explosion from the shaft, which was followed by an eruption of smoke, timber, coal, stone, &c., resembling the eruption of a volcano. Two or three of the men were removing the comes from the pit mouth at the time . . We understand that there had been no previous indica.- . tions of danger up to the very moment of the explosion. , On the first report being given, women were seen run- . ning in a state of distraction from every part of the town towards the scene of devastation. After considerable and unavoidable delay, two workmen, named Littlewood an. Armitage, succeeded in getting down the shaft (which is 284 yards deep), with a trunk or iron bucket, and bringing up three men. Armitage kept going down, and bringing up with him men and boys, until he had succeeded in getting 24 persons out alive, but each succeeding arrival at the mouth of the pit brought to the view of the horri fied spectators nothing save corpses and mutilated remains. Carts were employed the whole of the night carrying the unfortunate men to those dwellings which they had left in health and spirits but a few hours before. Before twelve at night, 41 bodies were taken out; and between 30 and 40 bodies yet remain in the pit. VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT.—SATURDAY.. CORPORATION OF LIVERPOOL V. NORRIS. Mr. Bethel asked for an injunction, restraining the de fendant from building on a place called Islington -place, in Liverpool, contrary to the provisions of a local act, which directed that when the old buildings were pulled down none should be erected on the site, but the new ones should be built so as to range with the rest of the street. The defendant had had notice of the act. Injunction granted. CORRESPONDENCE. TO THE CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMEN OF THE HEALTH COMMITTEE. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. GUINESS ti. TURNER. Mr. HEATHEIELD moved for a perpetual injunction to restrain the defendant, Mr. Geo. Turner from selling " Guiness's stout" other than such as shall be supplied by the plaintiffs, or their agent, Sparks Moline, or any other authorized agent, and particularly from selling the same in bottles, with labels in imitation of those used by the plaintiffs, or corked with corks marked or branded with the words " Guiness, Son and Co.'s extra stout," and also from representing himself as agent for the plain tiffs. The learned counsel also moved that the defendant should pay £6O by way of damages.—His HONOUR ; Is the latter part of the motion consented to ?—Mr. HEATH_ FIELD : The whole is submitted by Mr. Glasse, counsel for the defendant.—His Hoxotßo: Take the order. : GENTLEMEN,—Though I feel considerable reluctance and diffidence in addressing you thus publicly on a subject which you may not possibly at the present time have the rower to entertain or interfere w ith— a t l eas t i n th e way am going to propose—yet my duty is imperative, and I therefore offer no further apology.
