LOSS OF THE GEELONCI.

The above steamer was from Greenock, bound to Gee-
long, in Australia, in ballast, was sailing out schooner-
rigged, without steam. Sailed from Greenock the 4th
of November, and from Belfast Loch on the 18th. Had
favourable weather till the morning of the 23d, when the
wind hauled to west, and began to blow very heavy.
Twelve o'clock noon, hard gales, with a tremendous sea
running. Lost rudder. Midnight of same day vessel
lying-to under balance-reefed mizen. A heavy sea broke
on board and carried away bulwarks, stanchions, and
sweeping everything off deck but the life-boat, washing
the chief mate and two of the men from the pumps,
bruising them severely and doing much injury to the
hull of the steamer, which caused her to make water
very fast and put all exertion at defiance. The crew only
waited daylight to abandon her with the boat, hoping
some vessel might be near. At daylight 24th they de-
scried a large ship lying to leeward of them, which
proved afterwards to be the Swedish man-of-war Naija-
den, from the North Sea, and bound to Gibraltar.
They made her a signal of distress, which she answered,
but led them to understand they had lost their life-boat
that same morning, but if they could save themselves
with their own boat they would wait by them. About
eleven a.m., the crew got on board the stranger, where
they were received with the greatest kindness and atten-
tion. The crew were all saved, but lost every stick they
had.

BELGIUM.

In the Belgian Chamber of Deputies on Fri-
day and Saturday last, the discussion on the bud-
get was rather animated, particularly as regarded
some of the chapters of the budget of Public In-
struction. Some of the deputies of the oppoSition
complained in strong terms of what they consider
to be the undue influence of the clew on national

TURKEY.

A Vienna journal of the Bth says :—" We learn
from Trieste by telegraph that the Austrian Lloyds
Company, on hearing of the resolution of the Porte
to interdict steamers from taking up passengers in
the Bosphorus, made remonstrances to the Turkish
Government. It is well known that the Lloyds
have for a long time enjoyed a kind of tacit privi-
lege from the Porte, and that it has devoted a con-
siderable amount of capital to the undertaking.
The motive given for this measure of the Porte is
that it has purchased ten steam-vessels in England,
and that it intends to porform the local service on
its own account."

ON THE PHILOSOPHY OF MARRIAGE, AND THE SECRET
INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY.
WITH FIFTY COLOURED ENGRAVINGS ON STEEL.
In French, English, German, Dutch, Spanish, and Italian, in a
Sealed Envelope, 9s. 6d., or unfit-free, for Forty-two Stamps,
SELF-PRESERVATION; an
Analytical Investigation of the Physiology and Functions of
Marriage, in all the bearings in which that important subject affects
the health and happineA s of Man, with its Disqualifications and Impe-
diments, tracing their origin to the effects of juvenile solitary habits,
youthful excess, tropical climates, or close study ; followed by prac-
tical remarks, founded on twenty years' experience in the treatment
of Impuissance, Nervous Debility, Local Weakness, Spermatorrhcea,
Syphilis, and all diseases of the Urinary and Generative System. Il-
lustrated by 60 coloured Engravings, on the Anatomy of the Repro-
ductive Organs and their relative conditions in Health and Disease.

37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Do for of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin-
burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiete of Apothecaries' Hail, London, &c., &c.
The essential object of this treatise Is to point out the fearful
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
cases.

THE FRENCH EMPIRE.

Letters from Berlin have been received which
leave no doubt as to the unreserved recognition of
the Emperor of the French.
The Moniteur announces the reception of the
Spanish Ambassador by the Emperor, when the
former presented his credentials. The same journal
publishes the project of constitution for Spain,
which, it is plain enough to be seen, is approved of
by the French Government. The Duke of Nassau
has expressed his satisfaction to the French repio-
sentative at the change which has taken place in
the government of France.
On Sunday morning, at 9 o'clock, the Emperor
heard low mass celebrated in the chapel of the
Tuileries, by the Abbe Legrand, ova of St. Ger-
main r Auxerrois. All the
' household of
his Majesty and the superior employes of the palace
were present. After Divine
service
break-
fasted with his Majesty. It is said the cure
that from Sun-
day next the mass will be celebrated with greater
pomp. About three o'clock the Emperor left the
Tuileries in plain clothes, and accompanied by two
of his orderly officers, took a ride on horseback in
the Bois-de-Boulogne. He was everywhere re-
ceived with the most marked respect by the crowds
who were drawn thither, and into the Champs
ElYsees, by the fineness of the weather.
The Presse, in its weekly commercial bulletin,
states that the last month was one of the best
known for a long period as regards the exports of
French manufactures to foreign countries. It states
also that extensive orders have been recently re-
ceived from England in Paris for bronzes and fancy
articles, and that at Lyons there are still extensive
orders for silks and velvets.
By an Imperial decree dated the 4th inst., Count
Alexander Colonna Walewski, French Ambassador
to the Court of St. James's, has been raised to the
dignity of Grand Officer of the Legion of Honour.

LOSS OF THE GEELONG.

The above steamer was from Greenock, bound to Gee-
long, in Australia, in ballast, was sailing out schooner-
rigged, without steam. Sailed from Greenock the 4th
of November, and from Belfast Loch on the 18th. Had
favourable weather till the morning of the 23d, when the
wind hauled to west, and began to blow very heavy.
Twelve o'clock noon, hard gales, with a tremendous sea
running. Lost rudder. Midnight of same day vessel
lying-to under balance-reefed mizen. A heavy sea broke
on board and carried away bulwarks, stanchions, and
sweeping everything off deck but the life-boat, washing
the chief mate and two of the men from the pumps,
bruising them severely and doing much injury to the
hull of the steamer, which caused her to make water
very fast and put all exertion at defiance. The crew only
waited daylight to abandon her with the boat, hoping
some vessel might be near. At daylight 24th they de-
scried a large ship lying to leeward of them, which
proved afterwards to be the Swedish man-of-war Naija-
den, from the North Sea, and bound to Gibraltar.
They made her a signal of distress, which she answered,
but led them to understand they had lost their life-boat
that same morning, but if they could save themselves
with their own boat they would wait by them. About
eleven a.m., the crew got on board the stranger, where
they were received with the greatest kindness and atten-
tion. The crew were all saved, but lost every stick they
had.

LONDON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1852.

Another evening has been spent, and not un-
profitably, in discussing the provisions of the
Budget. Notwithstanding " the time of the year,
and the day of the month," we should not object,
to many more days being devoted to the same
purpose. The questions now before the House
and country are of the deepest and most vital
importance, not merely to the interests of party,
but to the welfare and prosperity of the nation.
They should not be finally disposed of until after
mature and attentive deliberation, when all the
arguments advanced on either side had been fully
considered, and due weight attached to each.
' However it may be desirable to treat the financial
scheme as " a whole," in debate, the various re-
solutions must be separated when a division is
about to take place. And it will be impossible
for Hon. Gentlemen who believe the alterations
in the House Duties to be an unwise, unnecessary,
and inequitable proposition, to give it their sup-
port, however highly they may approve of the
other principles enunciated by the CHANCELLOR of
the EXCHEQUER.

The debate was, indeed, of the highest import-
ance. It not only elicited the peculiar views of
the different parties, but it indicated the extreme
difficulty, we had almost said the impossibility,
of uniting so many discordant materials into a
consistent Administration in the event of the op-
position proving successful in ousting the present
Cabinet. Whigs, Peelites, and Liberals may con-
cur in rejecting the Budget. But could they hope
for anything like unanimity in preparing and car-
rying a substitute through Parilament ? Let us
suppose that RUSSELL, GLADSTONE, and COBDEN

CHRISTMAS PREPARATIONS.

N all hands arrangements are making to
celebrate the anniversary of Christmas. To create novelty
for a festivity so ancient requires some degree of ingenuity. and to
introduce fresh sources of comfort and enjoyment claims more than
ordinary talent. For a great number of years novelties in Dress
have been an important item in Christmas preparations. What,
hen, must be the amount of skill possessed by those artists whose
introductions arc new on each recurrence of this festivity? It is those
only whose success has long been the admiration of all classes, and
whose seasonable productions have gained lasting celebrity, who can
provide articles of ATTIRE worthy of universal patronage. The
DRESS prepared for Christmas by E. MOSES and SON embraces
variety, surpassing all attempts at imitation, and exhibits novelties
which only the first Tailoring Establishments in the universe can
device. To maintain this distinction, E. MOSES and SON'S Christ-
mas Preparations present ATTIRE for ADULTS and JUVENILES
in the widest range of taste, the nucleus of their most celebrated
styles, DRESS for Ckristmas parties, the most splendid materials
and the neatest workmanship. OVERCOATS and WATERPROOF
CLOTHING. in the most gentlemanly and comfortable styles.
HATS, CAPS, and HOSIERY, unequalled for qualily and beauty,
and all Goods charged considerably lower prices than at any
other house.
N.B.—Christmas eve being Friday, E. MOSES and SON'S Esta-
blishments will be closed at half-past four o'clock.

CANADIAN TIMBER TRADE.

ingPu rPit'e' increase in
We have heard it stated by several who are interested
in the trade, that the scarcity of Canadian timber, espe-
ciallyis already beginning to be
price. This is as-
cribed to the circumstance of so many vessels being
devoted from the staple traffio of the St. Lawrence in
order to convey
feltby fora
considerablebuild
emigrants to Australia and the States ;
and, as the weather must now shut up a chance of further
supplies for some time, it is feared that those who have
entered into large building contracts when timber was at
a low price, will now suffer much loss and embarrassment
by its increased value in the market.—Liverpool Albion.

GERMANY.

The Postarnpt Gazette of Frankfort of the 22,1
says :—" Several journals have announced that the
Austrian government had purchased some of the ves-
sels of the German fleet. This account is unfounded,
at least for the present. Neither is it correct that the
Germanic Diet has had a sitting within the last few
days ; there was merely a confidential meeting of the
envoys to the Diet. Baron de Brenner-Felsach, di-
rector of the Federal Chancellery, has returned from
his visit to Vienna. Couut de Thun Hohenstein,
president of the Germanic Diet, is not expected here
until towards the end of next week."
The Vienna Journal of the 21st announces that
Baron Stockhausen delivered his letters of credence
as Hanoverian Ambassador to the Emperor on the
18th. On the following day his Majesty granted an
audience to the Marquis de Marcel, the Brazilian
Ambassador. It is currently rumoured at Vienna
that his Imperial Majesty intends laying down the
command in chief of the army, in order to attend
more exclusively to the affairs of Government. The
Archduke Albert is spoken of as his probable succes-
sor in the chief command, and is to be raised to the
dignity of field-marshal on this occasion.

TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople, of the 10th, states
that the French Ambassador was that clay to receive
official rejection of the loan. The Sultan has declined
giving M. de Lavalette an audience on the subject.
The new loan was going on successfully.
Sir H. Ward, Lord High Commissioner of the
lonian Islands, had left the Turkish capital for Corfu,
after a few days' stay; and Mr. Cumberbatch, Eng-
lish consul-general in Constantinople, had also left for
England, on leave of absence. The Journal de Con-
stantinople asserts that the new ministry will follow
the reforming system of Rechid Pacha, which was
inaugurated on the accession of the present Sultan,
and which, it says, can alone secure the regeneration
of Turkey. Mouktar Bey was about to proceed to Alex-
andria, on a mission from the Government. It was stated
in the last accounts from Constantinople, that the
plague bad broken out on the frontiers of Persia ;
but the Board of Health of Constantinople has de-
clared that the malady which prevails there is not the
plague, but the cholera. On the Bth, four hundred
merchant vessels had, owing to a favourable wind,
entered the port, and the Bosphorus. Such an extra-
