tistinguishing, by urinary examination, the real cause and effect of
every variety of complaint, whether arising from solitary habits,

nervous Debility, Local Weakness, Spermatorrhon, &c. To which
ire added, Commentaries on the Physiology of Marriage, with pre-

EXPORTS.

TEAS.—Congou : 10 chops old have changed hands
at 15 to 16 taels for Hohow and Sinchune, and 17 to
24i for Oonains, leaving in stock 196 chops, chiefly
Oonams. Of the new crop, 38 chops have arrived. The
prices paid for the new crops must be considered 20 per
cent. in advance of previous seasons, and the teamen
are very firm. Scented orange pekoes, settlements
large, viz., 20,000 boxes at 22 to 27 taels for fine, up to
34 taels for curious.

SILK PIECE GOOD S.—None in stock, and manufactu-

A VESSEL DESTROYED EY FIRE.— Advices received at
Lloyd's on Saturday mention the total destruction by
fire at sea of the brig Prince, while on her voyage from
London to Algoa Bay. The burning vessel was fortu-
nately discovered by the ship Albatross, Captain Knowles,
on her voyage from London to Calcutta, which imme•
diately bore down towards the Prince, and was the
means of saving the whole of the crew and passengers
from total destruction. The Albatross arrived at Cal-
cutta on the 22d of October, and landed them at that
port.

REFORMATORY SCHOOLS. •

--
We understand that the Roman Catholics of London
and of the central districts are at length beginning to
take up the movement already eo widely spread on be-
half of these excellent institutions. A large house ad-
joining the Training College at Brook-green, Hammer.
smith, has been taken by Lord Edward Howard, the
Rey. Dr. Manning, and other private individuals, and is
now being adapted to the reception of some twenty-four
inmates, who of course will be mostly poor.lrish Roman
Catholics. The management of this Reformatory School
will be in the hands of the "Brothers of Charity," who
direct all these institutions in Belgium, four of whose
members, including one English brother, have recently
arrived in England for this especial purpose. The order
of the " Brothers of Charity" is of recent date, having
been founded in 1835 by the Rev. Dr. Scheffers, one of
the canons of Malines. This Reformatory School will
be at once commenced, as soon as the Inspector of Pri-
sons has certified it in his report. Another institution
of a similar kind is about to be estahlisbel in connection
with the monastery of Mount St. Bernard, which was
founded in 1840 by the late Lord Shrewsbury, in Cbarn-
wood Forest, Leicestershire. It appears that this step
is the result of a suggestion from the late vicar-general of
the order, who established a reformatory school with the
assistance of the Emperor Louis Napoleon, about two
years ago, at La Grande Trappe, on Mount St. Bernard,
in the Alp 4. The reformat,ry will he worked under the
care of the abbot of. Mount St. Bernard not, how.vPr,
by the choir or lay monks, but by " brothers of the third
order of St. Benedict," who will have a special code of
regulations drawn up for their use. Ore of the fathers of
the abbey will have the immediate superintendence of the
institution, which is to be commenced immediately at the
Abbey Grange, distant about half a mile from the pre-
sent monastery. The boys will be partially employed
with the monks in silent labour on the adjoining bleak

LONDON. MONDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1855.

December again brings with it a variety of
rumours respecting new negotiations for peace,
under the auspices and through the intervention
of A.istFia.
We are even told that terms have
been proposed, not by Russia, but by the Cabinet
of Vienna, which might not only be accepted with
honour at the present stage of the War, but which
would hardly be thought unfavourable oven after
another successful campaign. It is, further, more
than hinted that the Westeru Powers have
"nibbled at
the bait ;" and that, consequently,
there is every prospect of a speedy
cessation of

We must say that we totally discredit the latter
portion of these statements, believing that merely'
" the wish is father to the thought," and that the
assertions are but ingenious feelers put forward to
test the opinions and views of the community.
We have already had quite enough of Austrian
mediation. Her duplicity and insincerity have
been too clearly and unequivocally displayed to
allow us again •to fall into the obvious trap.
Twelve months have elapsed since we had a dis-
tinct and positive undertaking from Austria,
which, although Couched in ambiguous language,
left no passible doubt as to the impression it was
intended to convey to the Western Governments.
It was only stipulated that if Russia, before
the
end of the then current year, 1854, should have
wade propobiLions which were considered accept- .

WOOL.

Short wools of English growth are in somewhat improved
request, at full quotations ; but all other kinds move off
heavily, and prices are barely supported. Last week's
imports were only 171 bales from Madras, and 35 from
Hamburgh.
The following are the current rates of English wool :
Down togs, is id to is 3d ; half-bred hoggets, is ld to is

to is 2d ; blanket wool, 9d to is Od per lb.

SEEDS.
Canary and clover seed have moved off briskly, And
prices have an upward tendency. Tares are dull, and
lower to purchase. There is an active demand for linseed,
at enhanced quotations. Cakes command rather snore
money.

DENMARK.

The Moniteur of yesterday (Sunday) publishes
the following, under date of Copenhagen, Novem-
ber 27 :
" General Canrobert was received yesterday at
four o'clock in a private audience by his Majesty
the King of Denmark.
" The General was taken to the Palace in one of
the court carriages, in which was M. de Moltke,
aide-de-camp of his Majesty. More than 200 per-
eons assembled in the court of the hotel, and
cheered him as he entered the royal carriage. The
audience lasted for half an hour.
"After the audience Count de Bondy, Secretary
Imperial Legation, and Baron Duperre, comman-
der of the Pelican, were presented to his Majesty
by Dotezar, the French Minister.
" At five o'clock the corps diplomatique (with the
exception of the Russian Charge d'Affaires), the
members of the Cabinet, the high dignitaries of the
Crown, the commanders of the army and navy, and
the most eminent functionaries were invited to a
banquet given in honour of the General. General
Canrobert sat next to the King.
" In the middle of the repast the King, who
wore the insignia of the Legion of Honour, pro
posed the health of his Majesty the Emperor, and
at the same time the music struck up the national
air Partant pour la Syria."
" In the evening the General attended a ball
given by the Landgrave William, in honour of the
birth of his son. M. Dotezar presented the Am-
bassador Extraordinary of the Emperor to the
Royal family, all the members of which received
him most graciously.
" To-day General Canrobert visits the military
establishments of the capital, accompanied by the
Minister of War. .His Majesty has, it is said, sig-
nified his intention of doing the honours of the Ar-
senal. The General, after an audience of the
Queen Dowager, will, it is said, attend, with the
members of the French Legation, a dinner given to
his Honour by the heir apparent, and will after-
wards pass the evening at Prince Christian's of
Dentnark."

creased.

The explosion of the 15th of November was
eaused by the firing of 25 barrels of powder. The
park called " the Windmill" exploded afterwards.
It vas at first taken for an earthquake by those
at a dietance. The losses amount to 250 men

killed and wounded. The first cause of the mis
chief is not ascertained.

Al the date of the departure of the mail, th
Russians had redoubled their fire from the north
side.

The greatest possible security exists in the va-
rious camps of the Allies. The amount of pro-
visions and stores of every description is immense,
and the camping and hutting have been organised
in the most perfect manner.

The Russians are fortifying Nicolaieff, as well
as the embouchure of the Bug.
Twelve thousand Turks have sailed to Kertch
to reinforce General Vivian.

Omer Pacha is rumoured to have suspended his
march upon Kutais, awaiting the arrival of a con-
voy of money for the payment of his army.

Two millions and a half of francs have been
seat to him from Constantinople on the 21st of
November. The news of the reduction of Kars
was circulated by the Greeks in Constantinople,
but is not confirmed by the journals. Massif
Pacha has set out to carry decorations to the gar-

61011 of Kars, in reward of their glorious defence
is the assault of the 29th of September.

Mr. Macgregor, the Director of Hospitals to
the German Legion, has died of cholera.

WOOL.

Short wools of English growth are in somewhat improved

Hamburgh.
The following are the current rates of English wool :

The arrivals of stock from Ireland last week, direct by
sea, were 32 beasts and 144 pigs. We understand that very
large supplies, in good saleable condition, will be forwarded
to Liverpool this month from Cork and Dublin.
Tho show of Irish stock to-day was 1,000 sheep and 400
beasts, all in excellent condition. With foreign stock we
were fairly supplied as to number for the time of year.
The arrivals of beasts from our own grazing districts
were again very moderate, and mostly in middling condi-
tion. As the attendance of buyers was good, the beef
trade ruled steady, at prices fully equal to those realised
on Monday last, the best Scots being worth 5s 2d per 81bs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton.
shire we received 1,700 short-horns; from other parts of
England 600 of various breeds ; and from Scotland 100
Scots.

There was s decided increase in the supply of sheep com-
pared with Monday last, and the quality of most breeds
exhibited a considerable improvement. The mutton trade
was therefore heavy, at a decline iu the quotations of 2d
par Blbs.

We were very scantily supplied with calves, which sold
briskly at an advance in the quotations paid on Friday last
of from 6d to 8d per 81b3. The best calves sold at 5s 4d
per 81bs.

There was only a limited demand for pigs, at last week's
quotations. The supply was rather limited.
