This work is declared by Pro or Savage, Surgeon, to be the best book we have on Nery ess. At home from 11 to 3. This GREAT ANAT CAI. DISCOVERY wris'followed by his second great overy. The means of removing all Ner vous or Mental isease. 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 complaints ' or can now, but himself, he has for 30 years cured them from benevo lence rather than gain ; and, out of 14,000 nobles, nobleses, M.P.'s, admiral's, generals, barristers, clergymen, physicians, surgeons, tradesmen, &c. &c., he knows not 20 uncured who 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, &v., inquietude, wretchedness, indecision, melancholy, fhoug,ht3 of self-destruction, involuntary blushing, blasphemous thoughts, sleeplessness, &c. Insanity can be cured with almost equal certainty. " Tun 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 .e 250, and a-niece of the late Lord Hill, who had been ner vous 30 years, Sir J.

E FOOD QUESTION IN FRANCE . — The 2.l , Aziteur announces, that the Valenciennes branch of the Northern Railroad ha d transported , during the first ten days of March, 526,000 kilogrammes of grain, viz., 368,000 of wheat, and 154,000 of rye. Wheat had fallen lf. per hectolitre at Haze. brouek on Monday ;_lf. at Bailleul on Tuesday; 2f. at Mel ville on Wednesday; and 2f. at Estaires, and If. 50c. at Cassel on Thursday. Considerable arrivals of grain at Dun kirk and Calais had occasioned the fall. The Government steamer Solon had sailed from Havre, to take her station in the Channel, being one of the steamers appointed to tow vessels laden with grain which may be delayed by contrary winds. The Commandant-General ofthe Department of the Lower Seine had voted a sum of 500,000 f., to be employed in works of public utility throughout the department.. The Gazette des Tribunaux publishes a letter from Or leans, dated the 11th inst., 10 o'clock p.m.; stating that the population of several localities traversed by the canal having.congregated on its banks to plunder boats laden with flour and wheat. The Prefect of department, ac companied by the- Attorney-General and a number of other magistrates, had immediately left for the disturbed districts with a strong detachment of gendarmes. Seve ral omnibuses filled with soldiers also proceeded thither post-haste, but when they arrived the agitation which had shewn itself had entirely subsided. Flour fell ten francs on the Orleans market on the 17th. An attempt was made by the populace of Vannes, on the 15th inst., to oppose the embarkation of a quantity of wheat from Ouray. The prefect, - mayor, and the other authorities, having failed in prevailing on the people to desist and disperse, a company of soldiers was ordered to clear the quay. The appear ance of the troops nowie intimidated the multitude, - and the woraen in particular, roused to the highest pitch of exasperation, were deaf to all advice and exhortation. The mayor having directed the three legal summonses to be made, and the people still refusing to disperse, the gendarmes advanced towards. the crowd, who retired murmuring, but without offering any resistance. The next morning all the troops of the garrison were called out, the carts were escorted by soldiers to the quay, and the grain was unLarked without any opposition. TO BANKERS, MERCHANTS, AND OTHERS.

By accounts from Madrid of the 14th instant, report's of a ministerial crisis were again in circulation. ;,,The Ca-. binet, on receipt of despatches from Navarre, had re. solved to send General Serrano to that province, with the title and powers of Captain-General. A decree was ac cordingly prepared and submitted to the approbation of the Queen, who asked for time to consider. From Madrid journals and correspondence of the 15th instant, we learn that the Queen riot having signed the decree appointing General Serrano Captain-General of Navarre, the Ministry had appointed him to inspect the troops stationed in Naverre and the Basque provinces, and enjoined him to proceed to his destination on the 14th. The General having refused to obey the order, a n extraordinary Council was held to deliberate on the mat ter. It was attended by all the Cabinet, by General Narvaez, Messrs. - Martinez de la Rosa, Mon, Fidel, Do noso Cortes, Castro y Orozoo, Gonzales Bravo, the Marquis de Viluma, and other distinguished members of the Moderado party. The Council unanimously. resolved that General Serrano should be tried for dis obeying the order of his superiors. At three o'clock on the 15th' all the Ministers repaired to .the Senate, and communicated to that assembly the official decrees, nomi nating Generals Serrano, Espeleta, and Fernandez, in spectors of the troops in the provinces. A document, drawn up by General Serrano, was next read, in which he stated what had passed between him and the Cabinet dur ing the two previous days, and asked if he ought to quit Madrid pursuant to the orders of the Cabinet, or Continue to sit in the Senate. The Duke de Sotomayor next rose, ,and after explaining the circumstances referred to, de clared that the Cabinet bad determined to bring the General to trial for disobedience and. insubordination. M. Luzurriaga urged the assembly not to adopt any hasty. decision in a matter of so delicate a nature ; but the Mi nister of Justice insisting on the necessity of a prompt and decisive resolution, a committee was chosen to report on the affair in the course of the day. We have Lisbon news to the 15th inst. An extraordi nary apathy was pervading all classes, civil and military, in the country. Saldanah had not yet proceeded to in vest Oporto, but the junction of a portion of his forces with those of Casal had at last been effected. The monied difficulty still subsisted, and the probabi lity remained unchanged that the Queen would be obliged to accept British mediation. A number of inconsiderable skirmishes had taken place, in which the advantage was said to be on the Queen's side, but with little tendency to bring the civil war to a conclusion. Some serious desertions, however, had taken place from the Junta to Saldanhn. The Government had adopted further measures with $ view to the reduction of the discount upon Bank of Lis bon notes (including, the emission of 2,400 contos of new inscriptions of the internal debt, the produce to be ap plied in cancelling the notes), but so far without success.

Sir,—l beg toto you some results relative to the comet discovered here on February 6, which will, per haps, interest your astronomical readers. During the last ten days this object has been distinctly visible to the naked eye in the constellation Andromeda, shining as a star of the forth magnitude, with a tail extending (at present) about four degress from the nucleus. The perihelion passage will take place about six o'clock on the evening of March 30, when the distance of the comet from the sun's surface will be little more than four times the real diameter of that luminary, or about 3,500,000 miles; consequently, the intensity of light will be 100 times stronger than at present, or once stronger than that of a star of the fourth magnitude. Very few comets have approached so near the sun as this. My object in writing now is to suggest the possibility of our seeing the comet in broad daylight on March 30. The great comet of 1843 was distinctly observed at noon day over the whole continent of America, and likewise in the south of Europe ; and on comparing the intensity of light ofihe two comets given by theory, there is no suf ficient difference to render the visibility of the present comet in daylight impossible, though we are of course un able to jude how physical circumstances may affect the degree of brilliancy. At noon on March 30, according to my corrected elements, the comet will be distant front the run four • times his apparent diameter, and nearly south-south-west of his centre. Towards sunset, or about perihelion, the distance will be somewhat less. The diameter of the co netic - nebulosity is about 65,000 miles, and that of the more condensed central part 8,000 miles; the tail extends more than 5,000,000 miles from the head. At the beginning of April this appendage (judging from analogy) will no doubt reach a muck „ greater length, and wiil probably be seen in the western heavens soon after sunset, though the nucleus may be lost in the twilight early in the month. It is alm , ist unnecessary for me to remark, that obser vations made about the time of perihelion would be ex tremely valuable for the determination of the elements. I remain, Sir, yours very respectfully, J. H. .

INQUEST —MEDICAL CASE.—Yesterday, an inquest was held betilre 'Mr. Curry on view of the body of Mary Ann Knox, the wife of Thomas Knox, and who lived at No. 29, Richmond-row. It appeared that the deceased was in the family way. Mr. Bullock, surgeon, was em ployed to attend her—he had before lodged in the house. On Friday deceased was ill and the doctor was sent for. She, observed to a witness on that day (before he was calla!), though she appeared to be quite well, that a great change had taken place in her condition within a short time. She said she had discharged great clots of blood of the size of eggs. Subsequently the doctor attended her in her confinement, and it appeared that, after resort ing to the usual measures in cross birth, he delivered de ceased of a dead female child. He had previously admi nistered medicine to the deceased. It appeared from some of the evidence, that the surgeon was slightly affected Iby liquor on his first visit. One witness left deceased for I about an hour, and on her return found the surgeon in a state of intoxication, and unable toyanswer any question. Deceased at' this time was much worse than previously, and died about eight o'clock the same night. A accord .witness stated that she did not think that the doctor paid deceased that attention which was requisite. The case was adjourned, for further evidence, until Thursday. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Woods, surgeon, thst the cause of death was flooding, or haemorrhage, scarcely a drop of blood being left in the body.

COOKE, BOX -KEEPER, THEATRE ROYAL.-;--On Thursday next, it will be perceived by the Advertisement in another column, that Mr. G. G. Cooke, the indefatigable and polite box-keeper of the Theatre Royal, takes his benefit. Few playgoers who have ex perienced the attention of Mr. Cooke, will doubt that his friends will rally round him on this occasion, and we sincerely trust that a fashionable and crowded house will reward his efforts. THE COR - NT;DE.—The arrival of spring removes not the gloom that lowers over almost every branch of com mercial enterprise, but we trust, nay we prognosticate, that the apathy evinced by purchasers, which has clogged the railway-like speculations in cotton and corn, may pro duce a re-action alike beneficial to all classes. The ex horbitant prices of grain led to the forwarding of unlimited orders to purchase to all supplying ports, cresting, of course, in foreign markets an unexpected demand, and causing an unprecedented adv ance i n va l ue; but, the per chases that have been m a d e t o supp l y the English..market are so great, and almost all on speculation, that even with inereasmg prices in America, we have au important decline here. The fact is that the flour to arrive is now antici pated to be more than will supply the wants of the com munity. Speculators having been led under the hies of a scarcity in America to buy too extensively. This is borne out by the news by the Cambria, the papers by which c quote flour at pares, when freight is c onsidered, wih! are greatly above it s va l ue i n th e E ng li s h mar kets. B• t every manoeuvre is bei ng t r i e d by specu l a tors - to • • hew a decTease in stocks in hand and to arrive. Last week no le! , ,s than 4COO barrels of flour paid dock and town dues for shipment to France. 1 1 , 7 e know, however, that there are articles occasionally paSsed which arc never intended to be exported, but merely to show a decreased stock, and which a return of dues are applied for some days efrer the Ailing of the vessel "as short shipp e d.. , _ .Liverpool Telegraph. ) c . t•_ ~; - x •~~ c ~'i- I - f~ 1
