GERMANY.

M. Fischer, Councillor of State, has arrived at
Frankfort, in order to make a report to the Ger-
manic Diet on the subject of the German fleet.
His residence there will be onlY short. The nego-
tiations which had been opened with the Brazilian
government for the sale of the remainder of the
fleet have led to no result. It is thought that
Austria will purchase the two steamers Ernest
Augustus and Duke d' Oldenburg.
The Naw Prussian Gazette states from Berlin,
27th It is known that Abbas Pacha, the vice-
roy of Egypt, promised our Government on the
establishment of the railway from Alexandria to
Cairo, to purchase timber in Prussia to the amount
of one minion of thalers. It has since been found
that the Prussian timber is not suitable for that
purpose, and that the sleepers of the railway must
be in iron. In consequence the viceroy has pro-
mised to purchase other articles to the same
amount. A vessel has just left Dantzic for Egypt
with building timber and muskets to the amount
of 200,000_ thalers, in part of the above engage-
ment."

WOOLWICH, Nov. 30,
THE ROYAL MILITARY ACADEMY.

An examination of candidates from the school at
Carshalton, and from several of the private establish.
ments for instructing young gentlemen in Woolwich
and the surrounding country, took place during the

various candidates who were (anxious to be admitted
as gentlemen cadets at the Royal Military Academy,
preparatory to their becoming officers in the Royal
Artillery or Royal Engineers on the satisfactory con-
clusion of their studies at the cadets' barracks at Wool-
, wich. The examination on the present occasion has been
the most gratifying that has taken place for many years,
as out of the 26 young gentlemen who came forward 25
passed, and the Master-General has been pleased to ap-
prove of them, and they are ordered to join at the Royal
Military Academy on Tuesday, the Ist of February
next, on its re-opening after the approaching Christmas
vacation. A young gentleman from the school at Car-
shalton was first on the list as to qualifications in May
last, and another from the same school stands first on
the list after the examination just completed and ap-
proved by Lord Raglan. Altogether ten of the young
gentlemen whose names are given below as passed, and
ordered to join the Academy, are from the school at
Carshalton, and stand high on the list, which is made
according to their merit and abilities in the requisite
branches of education, in which they are strictly ex-
amined previous to their being placed on the list of
gentlemen cadets of the Theoretical Class at the Royal
Military Academy :-

Thctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin-
burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearfial
consequences resulting from 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 disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment
adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated
schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe.
The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under
the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few
legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un-
divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short,
every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental
to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and
ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation
of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical
and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient
guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care
will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and
inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these

Ti URS DAY

of 1842 and subsequent years. There were in 1840
in the schedule of the Act 3 and 4 Wm. IV., c. 56,
for consolidating the Customs duties, about 1,150
entries of different rates of duty chargeable on the
several enumerated articles, and Mr. Hume then re-
commended that 1,000 of these entries should be re-
moved from the Customs' tariff; and he stated
confidently tbat that might be done without loss to
the revenue, and with great advantage to the com-
merce and to the consumers of the country.
In the month before Parliament was dissolved in
1841, it will be seen by " Hansard," that Sir R.
Peel attacked Mr. Hume about the proceedings of the
Import Duties' Committee, and made jest to the House
of the recommendation of Mr. Hume to remove
1,000 out of 1,150 entries in the Customs' import
tariff, yet when he took office, and was obliged to
provide for the service of the year, he became a sin •
cere convert to that opinion, and within the year
after his return to office introduced Bills by which
600 or 700 of the entries of articles were removed
from the tariff, and many others greatly modified.
By the returns to Parliament, No. 141, of 1852, the
aggregate amount of protective duties appears to have
been 434,1541. on 233 manufactured articles ; and
916,4351. on 42 articles of agricultural produce, show-
ing the aggregate amount of protection to all kinds
of imports was 1,350,589/. into the United Kingdom
in the year ending the sth of Jan., 1851.
Now that we have time to turn our attention to
the future financial situation of the country, we
would direct the attention of all classes to the case
which Mr. Hume proposed for discussion in the last
Parliament.

The following was his notice of motion for Tue--
day, June 22, 1852, by Mr. Hume :
That it appears, by returns (P. Paper 267, 267.11 of
1852) on the table of the House, that there are 233
entries in the Custom-house tariff list of foreign manu-
factured articles charged in the year 1851 with duties of
import into the United Kingdom, varying in amount
from one to fifty per cent. on the value of such articles,
and such articles may be classed under five schedules cr
lists, viz , producing in

Also, that there are entries in the Custom-houso tariff

classed under six heads or schedules; namely, in

Baily, the eminent artist, was opposed by two cre-

MENT BILL.

MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS ACT AMEND-

Mr. BUNBURY, in moving the second reading of this
Bill, briefly explained its object, which he said was to
make certain amendments to that part of the Municipal
Corporation Act which prevented a member of a town
council entering into any kind of eontract with the cor-
poration. The Bill was introduced by Lord Cranworth
in the House of Loris and received the sanction of all
the legal authorities in that House.
After a few words from Mr. HEADLAM, who stated
it was his intention to propose two amendments in the
Bill, it was read a second time.

COMMON LAW FEES REGULATION BILL.
This Bill was read a second time.
BURGH HARBOURS (SCOTLAND) BILL.
This Bill was also read a second time.
PROPERTY QUALIFICATION OF MEMBERS.
Mr. TUFNELL then moved for leave to bring in a
Bill to abolish the property qualification of Members of
Parliament. The Hon. Member said he made a similar
motion last session, but withdrew it on the
promise of Lord J. Russell that he would introduce
a clause into his Reform Bill abolishing the property
qualification of Members. That Bill had been brought
before the House with such a clause in it, but the
Noble Lord had abandoned the measure. He had, there-
fore, taken the earliest opportunity of bringing the subject
again before the House, and if the Government would now
consent to his motion he would defer the discussion
upon the question until some future occasion.
Mr. WALPOLE said he would not oppose the intro-
duction of the Bill, but he objected to pledge the Go-
vernment one way or the other as to the course they
would take.

Colonel SIBTHORP could not oppose the motion
after the course the Government had taken, but he was
extremely jealous of the introduction of any Bill which
did away with the constitutional qualifications of Mem-
bers which had long been held sacred by the House.
Leave was then given to bring in the Bill.
The other orders of the day having been disposed of,
tho House adjourned. •
