Alarmed at them. and yet scarcely knowing how to avoid them, some Professional gentlemen in London, who had. experienced the same difficulties as to purity and uniformity of strength in Dugs and Chemicals, Invalids' Food, &c., combined, originat _d, and estab liShed the GENeRAL APOTRECARINS' COMPANY (Limited) as a remedy for this gigantic and serio,,s evil; and as a protection for all The public mind has hi come ihfx)ug: classes. The Public and the Profession are entitled, and ought to enquire of this Company 1. What are the objects in view, and the principles of action? 2. By what means will these be carried out? 3. What gu rantees are there for the faithful performance? let. The objects of the Company are, to prepare and sui•ply the Medical Profession and the Public with medicines of every kind, of known strength and perfect purity; Invalids' Fool, and Domestic Chemicals. To improve the forms of old remedies, to introduce new from all qu•+rters of the world, wherever satisfactory evidence of their value is obtained. To sell every article under its rig4t name, without substitution, and of defined and uniform strength, and at fair and moderate prices. To protect the public, by a careful selection of intelligent Assistants, from the dangers arising from careless and inaccurate dispensing. 2nd. The Company purchases at the best markets, only, the finest qualities of sound and genuine Drugs ; these are crushed or ground on the premises, by the machinery of the Company, and there made into the various preparations; being thus under perfect control. Such Chemicals as are not mule by the Company are obtained only from the first manufacturers, tested and examined before use, and where only commercially pure, are made chemically so, by r,-crys tailisation and other processes, in the laboratories, under the con stant snperintendance of an eminent resident Chemist, recommended by Baron Liebeg and Dr. Fresenius. The exact cmposition of every article is ascertained and stated, before brought into use. A depot will be opened in every large and important town in the king dom, for the sale of th,se articles; where the public may obtain all domestic medicines, invalids' food, &c., as pure as human means can make them; where prescriptions will be prepared exactly in accordance with the intentions of the prescribers, and agreeable to the directions of the British and Foreign Pharmaeopceias. The Com pany's preparations say thus be obtained directly by the public, without the risk attending intermediate channels. 3rd. Tr e possession of ample capital; the statue and character of the Directors; the numerous shareholders belonging to the Medical Profession, who will be deeply interested in the bona fides; the high standing taken as a scientific as well as a commercial body; the war waged against adulterations an i rand, which will create watchful opponents, ready to expose any defaults; and lastly, the powerful motives of self-interest; all these offer guarantees for t'e faithful carrying out and onward, of the business of the General Apothecaries' Company (Limited), in accordance with its principles./ The Liverpool Apothecaries' Company, founded and carried on upon, exactly the same principles, baring satisfied itself by careful inspection of the machinery, at , ff, and general organisation of the General Apothecaries' Company (Limited), that it is perfectly able and fully resolved to carry out those principles, and to extend its ben,ficial advantages widely throughout the country. has therefore resolved to be identified with and merge into it; for which purpose arrangements will speedily be matured.

If this be so, the only way of accounting for the appear• ance of the murderer in the room, is by supposing that, having entered the terminus by a passage leading from the platform, at its west sinde, he asp ended the stairs, and lurking by, either in one of the rooms on the corridor, or on a sort of cask staircase adjoining the cashier's room, awaited an opportunity of finding the coast clear, and then, seeing that the door was not locked--which is now generally supposed, notwithstanding the evidence at the inquest—opened it quietly, and so as not to attract attention. Rewards have been offered for information by Mr. Simon Little, of Cullentra, county of Wexford, to the amount of £lOO, and by Mr. Thomas W. Bond, of Stephen's green, to the amount of £5O. The railway company have not as yet offered any reward, but it is said that the Government contemplate offering n less a sum than £5OO, under the usual restriction. Matters on the Continent are again reported to be in a very unpleasant position. A telegraphic despatch from Paris, early this morning, informs us that the Constantinople papers announce that the Russian cruisers, of Abasia, had captured several Turkish shore beats, loaded with smuggled salt. Admiral Lyons sent some gun boat sloops to demand a reason for this capture, but one of their sloops, the Beager, attempting to penetrate the Sea of Azof, the Russians refused her the passage of the Straits of Yenikale, and even fired upon her The details relative to the affairs in which the Persians who had fired themselves into Herat had been repulsed, are confirmed, but this dates so far back as the month of Jaly. Herat was taken in September, and the capture of the place is not contradicted. _ . According to Vienna advices of a late date, it would appear that not only is the Prussian Govern ment opposed to England, Austria, and Turkey in the Bessarabian frontier question, but Baron von Alanteuffel is endeavouring to consolidate the friendly relations which have recently been esta blished between the Russian and French Cabinets. It is also related that the Prussian Minister- President speaks and acts as if the alliance between Russia and France were a fait accompli It is still asserted that the question of the re sumption of the Paris Conference is far from being settled and it is said that the Emperor Francis Joseph has expressed himself to the effect that it will not be his fault if the stipulations of the treaty of Paris are not fulfilled. We get a strange report from Naples by tele graph, which says the Government is about to make a free port of Naples. This is highly impro bable, for the Customs duties are one of the chic resources of the revenue. The city was tranquil on the 12th. From Spain wo learn that the fusion between the Carlists and the reigning branch of the Spanish Bourbons is advancing towards its conclusion, but without the concurrence, or, perhaps, the know ledge of General llarvaez. According to letters received from well-informed parties in several continental cities, the removal of the apprehensions recently entertained respecting the cordiality of the relations between the English and French Governments has been attended with a favourable effect upon the money market. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE • FRANCE. (FROM . OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, MONDAY EVENING. The principal news of the day comes from Belgium, and is a confirmation of the report that , has been current for the last few days, that Russia is disposed to abandon both Bolgrad and the Isle of Serpents, but that she will only do so on con ditions of a new Congress being assembled. This confirmation comes from the Russian journal Le Nord. A good authority on Russian matters. In return for these concessions, a hope is expressed by the Le Nord that the English fleet will promptly leave the Black Sea, and the Austrians the Princi palities. The Constitutionnel has an article written. in vague terms, the object of which seems to be, to show that the Emperor never had any intention of making unworthy concessions to Russia. According to the Independanoe of Brussels, M . de Morny has been summoned from St. Petersburg to Paris. The same journal says that an agent of the French Legation in Persia, who was charged to accompany the Turkish Embassy, was on its way to Paris, has received orders to return to his post. This must evidently be intended as a con cession to England. There has been a rise on the Bourse to-day. It was reported there that the Government is determined not to authorise the quotation of any more foreign enterprises in 'the official stock acts for at least another year, from the let January next. If this resolution be taken, it will be a death blow to the Russian railway project. The official Moniteur publishes a letter from Brussels, which, announcing the marriage of King Leopold's daughter, the Princess Charlotte, with an Austrian Archduke, says, in proper terms, that "as King Leopold is very rich, he will, both as a king and a father, no doubt, give his daughter a large fortune;" also, that the young couple have resolved to marry, " not so much for political motives as for personal taste." Such language is considered grossly unbecomin g in a grave official journal ; and people ask whether it has been employed by negligence, or as an intentional impertinence. As Louis Napoleon entertains no liking for King Leopold, it may be meant to be impertinent. A. Marseilles despatch says that Queen Christina, of Spain, had embarked at that port for Rome. She goes to attend the aceouchement of her daughter, and has no present intention of returning to Spain. Accounts had arrived from Naples to the 12th. A decree had be issued, authorising the formation of a railway from Naples to the Gulf of Tarento, and it was said that Naples was decidedly to be made a free port. The city was tranquil, but commercial affairs were slack. All the accounts from Germany concur in stating that if Switzerland does not do what Prussia wants with respect to the Neufchatel question, the latter power will march three corps d'arrnee to the Swiss frontiers, and will, a la Nicholas, take some " mate rial guarantee" in the shape of Schaffenburg, or some other Swiss town. A St. Petersburg letter announ6es that a consi derable number of Russian troops are to be con centrated near the frontiers of Persia, in order to cause the influence of Russia to prevail, in the event of the affairs of Persia and Affghanistan taking a serious turn. THE "DAILY NEWS" ON THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. The announcement which has been made by one at least of our cotemporaries, that "Mr. Buchanan is elected President of the United States," although possibly true by anticipation, and in so far as it indicates an event, the future accomplishment of which is but too probable, is, nevertheless, inaccurate and premature in point of actual fact. No person is as yet " elected President of the United States, nor has any vote for that officer as yet been taken. All that has been accomplished, is the choice, in the various States of tha Union, of those functionaries called " Presidential electors," whose duty it will be, some few weeks hence, to assemble for the purpose of recording their votes for both a President and a Vice- President of the American Union; and as to the choice of even these " electors," the information which has reached us is utterly informal and non-official. * * * We repeat, therefore, that although it is highly probable that Mr. Buchanan will be the next President of the United States, the announcement of that fact as already accomplished, or as even absolutely certain of accom pliohment, is, to say the least, undeniably premature. ACCIDENT TO MR. HOESMAN, M.P.—An accident which appears to have been at the moment very alarming hap pened on Saturday to Mr. Horsman, M.P., Chief Secretary for Ireland, while hunting with the Ward stag hounds. The Freeman's Journal, which relates the circumstance, says "It appears that in a hard run of some two hours, Mr. florsman, who is a first-rate rider, was somehow or other thrown from hia horse, and while in that state the horse, which was quite tired, rolled over him heavily, and, we understand, severely injured him. No medical attend ance was, unfortunately, at hand, but every attention was bestowed on the sufferer which care and solicitud e cou ld afford. On enquiry at his residence in Phenix Park, we ascertained that Surgeon O'Reilly has been in attendance upon the honourable gentleman, and that although he h as r eceived considerable injary by the fall, and will necessarily be confined to his apartment for some days, yet the injuries are not of a nature to cause any serious apprehensions."

CC4e kortlyrn Tian WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1856 THE DAY'S NEWS The local and domestic incidents of the day are somewhat interesting. Two elections are now on the tapis—one at SoUthampton, in the room of the late Attorney-General, and the other atlAylesbury, in consequence of Sir R Bethell's promotion : At the former there seems to be a host of candidates, including Mr. Edwin James, Q C., who has aban doned his pretensions to. Hull; but, according to some well-informed parties, his chances of securing the seat of Sir A. Cockburn are like angels visits, " few and far between." To the return of Sir R. Bethell, the new Attorney-General, no opposition is anticipated, as it appears that he is aia - vourite with the liberal electors, and the tory party are too weak to attempt to bring a rival candidate into the field. The question of Public Education, is certainly receiving much attention at the present time. Sir John Pakington. Bart.. lectured on the subject to the citizens of Manchester last night, when he delivered an improved edition of his parliamentary orations on the matter last session. For the rea sons briefly alluded to in our remarks, on the spread and enormity of crime in yesterday's publi. cation, we consider that this subject should have the early and attentive consideration of Parliament. We hold that, of all subjects, which can engage the attention and mind of man, education is the foremost. Great now—great at all times—not ' only a helper in the building up of society and civilisation, but the very foundation upon which all society and civilisation must finally rest. There may be those who think otherwise, b - ut such characters know little of man himself ;—of what he may be made, and what he makes in turn—according ✓ as he it prepared in youth ; of all laws and in stitutions ; of the very frame work of society itself—with which in after life he has to deal. Much has been said and written about the education of the people. Like other topics of a debatable character it has been used as a popu lar cry for riv , 2l sections in politics and religion to villify and abuse each other. Years have rolled on and no permanent or satisfactory settlement of the question has been attained. This should not be, in asmuch as the longer we delay tho establishment of a system of education really national in its cha acter and practice we not only injure the present, but generations yet unborn. Upon the grounds of political economy and of social and moral pro gress, we advocate the ideas of Sir John Pakington, as far as they go ; but to our mind, they only meet the evils and defects, which he proposes to eradicate and destroy, half way. The more we reflect upon the question, and the longer we try to reply to the enquiry, what is education? the more are we satisfied that they who would concoct a system of national education in this country must p a y special regard to, and act upon, three fundamental principles, namandely, that the system must be good, permanent, universal; that is toisay, that the education impar ted shall be such as to enable all classes of the people, coming under its control and influence, to act with credit and advantage to themselves and the community in which they are located, in the discharge of their various allotted duties on the stage of life. The follies and absurdities of our old instruction schemes must be abandoned, and every improvement which the gigantic minds of a Pestalozzi, a Gaul, a Stowe, a Simpson, a Bryce, or a Wayland can suggest, should be acted upon—in a word—we should educate man according to his nature — a s a three fold being—physical, intellectual, and moral,. As to the universality of education, we would go further than Sir John Pakingto n. All classes should be cared and provided for. We want our Parish Elementary Schools. We want improved district Grammar Schools, county Colleges and provincial Universities. When this is done edu cation will be universal. But a national system may be both good and universal , and yet very deficient, in consequence of its want of per manency. Hence we would have it so arranged that no matter who may be the minister of the day, the national system of education should not be interferred with, and as we asses taxes for the construction of roads, the building of gaols and workhouses, so, also, should we lay a rate for the support of our schools, colleges, and universities. Our cousins across the Atlantic have done so—they are prospering—and their criminal statistics bear a singular contrast with ours, although wo boast of ourselves as being the pioneers of civilisation in every clime. Every man, as he passes one of the National Seminaries, should be enabled to regard it as a building in which he has an interest, and to the erection and support of which he contributes according to his means. The lecture of Sir John Pakington suggests other reflections, to which we shall allude on another occasion. The murder of Mr. George Little, in Dublin, has caused 'no small 'consternation in that city. A ccrrespondent informs us that some new cir cumstances have come to light, tending to give an idea of how the crime was committed, and of the escape of the murderer. It would appear from a careful examination of the cashiers room, that the c oncealment of a person from the occupant of the room was totally imposs ible, and that, further, deceased was at his table , o r in the neighbourhood of it, when the assassina tion took place ; for the MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL.

Now that the price of wool is likely to remain firm, we may expect manufacturers to take a decided course either one way or the other as to short time. Prices are firm at former rates. More business has been transacted in Yorkshire goods. Improved advises come from Bradford, and although sales of piece goods were limited prices were stiff and show an improved tendency.

To-day, as will bo perceived from our reports in another column, there was was very little business transacted in Dublin, Cork, Leeds, or Hull, and buyers in nearly every instance had the advantage in price. At the market held here wheat declined 3d to 41 per bushel below last Tuesday's rates. Flour was also 6d to is per sack lower. Both oats and oat meal receded in price. The enquiry for Indian Corn was dull and languid. According to the monthly returns of the Board of Trade, the foreign imports of grain into the United Kingdom for the month of October, viz., 434,601 quarters of Wheat, 113,482 quarters of Barley, 139,871 quarters of Oats, 6,085 quarters of Rye, 4 006 quarters of Pease, 152,066 quarters of Indian Corn, and 161,213 cwts of Flour. Our Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets are now tame. For Sugar the demand is slack, and there is nothing passing in Molasses or Rum. Tho sales of Rice are to a moderate extent. Jute commands attention at rather dearer prices. It is stated that the directors of the London and County Bank had no cognisance of, nor ever in any manner authorised, an arrangement for the purchase of any interest whatever in the Newcastle Commercial Bank. Accounts from Russia continue to speak of the rapid development of the trade of the country since the conclusion of the peace. The value of the ex ports from St. Petersburg this year is estimated at 200,000,000 of francs. Next to corn, it is stated that the most important article exported is tallow, of which more than 90,000,000 lbs. have been shipped. Of course it is reported that the Russian Railway project has been very favourably received on the Bourse, and various other undertakings, having for their object the opening up of fresh branches of trade, are now also on the tapis. At present, however, when the money markets of the whole of Europe are so greatly disturbed, there can be no doubt that the difficulty which must be ex perienced in raising the necessary capital will stand in the way of their early prosecution.
