RUSSIA.

A letter from Wilna of the 24th ult., in a Frank-
fort journal, says :—" The recruitment in Russia
this year is infinitely more considerable than last
year. All the regiments have their full complement
of men, whereas last year the troops in the pro-
vinces had scarcely more than one half of their men
and horses. The troops are constantly on the
move, no regiment remaining a month in the same
quarters."
By the last returns of the cholera at St. Peters-
burg it appears that, on the morning of the 24th
ult., there were 393 ill of that disease ; in the
course of the day there were 46 new cases, and 23
deaths.

ATTIRE: FOR JUVENILES AND OTHERS
IS best obtained at the establishment of E. MOSES
and SON, or at their Branch, New Oxford-street, corner of
Hart-street. Implicit attention is paid to all orders ; styles uniting
gentility, fashion, and comfort; workmanship which cannot be
equalled, and charges lower than any other Establishment,—are
some of the advantages secured. The best arrangements for the en-
suing Vacation are to be made at E. MOSES and SON'S. Their
Dress for young gentlemen provides a correct lit, imposing no re-
straint on juvenile exercises—hence its comfort and durability, its
elegance and utility. With the same precision Dress is provided for
Sportsmen, its cut being a peculiarity which E. MOSES and SON
have attained through long experience. and vast amounts of patron-
age; its make, elegance, strength, and cheapness, is appreciated by
all classes of Sportsmen. Infinite variety in Wiwrsa DRESS, the
newest materials and designs, the most comfortable and fashionable
order of attire, comprising Over-coats, Capes, Wrappers, &c , the ma-
terials being the best manufactured for this season. Though great
advances have been realised on materials, E. MOSES and SON'S
WINTER Dar.ss is offered at the same low prices.

GERMAN Y.

The new loan ofeighty millions of florins has been
announced, and favourably received on the Vienna
Bourse. The decree announces that of the produce
of the new loan twenty millions shall be applied to
railways, twenty-five millions to the sinking of
paper money, fifteen millions to the partial repay-
ment to the Bank of its credit at the charge of the
State.
The postponement of the treaty between Belgium
and the Zollverein has been accorded to the 24th of
December next, on the request of the Belgian Go-
vernment.
The Hamburyh Correspondent of the 6th says—
"On Friday last the editor of the Reform, a
local journal, was summoned to the Town-hall, where
the magistrates informed him that he would not be
allowed in future to make allusions to Prince
Louis NAPOLEON and his Government. The Reform
bad published an article on the ball at the Halle in
Paris, and it had been formally complained of by the
Minister of France to the Senate."
The New Prussian Gazette of Berlin was seized on
the 6th for an article criticising in very severe terms
the policy of the Government.
A letter from Berlin states that a prolongation of
the treaty between Belgium and the Zolverein, has
been granted to the 24th of December next, at the
express request of the Belgian Government.
The Cologne Gazette has the following from Ber-
lin, dated the 6th :—" A Catholic priest, named
BRINDIN, from Greece, who has been here some time
collecting subscriptions for the Catholic communes in
Greece, has been ordered to quit Berlin. This ex-
pulsion, the motives for which are not stated, has
caused great sensation."
The Prince Regent of BADEN left Carlsruhe on
the 7th for Vienna, instead of waiting, as had been
announced, to visit the Emperor of AUSTRIA in
Hungary.

SWITZERLAND.
The Federal Council of Switzerland has resolved
to inform the States composing the German and Aus-
trian postal union, that the question of the definitive
adoption of the convention entered into with them,

determined to propose that the said convention shall
come into operation, if possible, from the let October,
under certain conditions.
The Zurich Gazette gives an account of the won-
derful calculating powers of a blind youth named
WINKLER, brought up at the blind school of Unter-
stress. He lately gave a public exhibition of his
peculiar talent, extracting square and cubic roots to
the extent of five decimals with the greatest rapidity
and correctness. He solved quadratic and cubic
equations also of the most difficult kind, and re-
peated
a number composed of 71 figures, which had
been written down and repeated to him once. He
afterwards commenced the figures at the other end,
and repeated them with perfect correctness.

activity. Woollens were buoyant in price. Cloths,
both French and German, were inquired for. Cotton
was extremely quiet at unchanged rates. Flour and
meal were less active and buoyant, the excitement

created by the Asia's news having completely sub-
sided. Increased arrivals also depressed the trade.
Wheat was more plentiful and less sought after. Pork
in fair demand at full rates. Beef dull and lower.
Lard active. Cheese heavy. In wool an extensive
butsiness had been done at full prices, the manufac-
turing inquiry being excessively brisk. In freights
little change bad occurred.
A fortnight's later news from California had been
received at New Orleans by the steamship Falcon, the
dates from San Francisco being to the Ist of August.
No details had been received at New York beyond
the subjoined :
" The Oregon had arrived at Panama from San Fran-
cisco, bringing down 2,000,000 dollars of gold dust on
freight.

"Sickness had abated on the Isthmus.
"The steam-ship Ohio left Aspinwall for New York
on the 19th inst., having on freight upwards of 2 000,000
dollars of gold dust. Captain Snow, of the United Stales
navy. is among her passengers.
" The mining intelligence is favourable.
" 'rne Indians
continued very troublesome, and it wai
reported that they wore about to erganiz.3 for a general
fight with the whites.
" The San Francisco markets were generally slightly
depressed.
" The yield from the mines was increasing.
"Emigration from California to Australia was taking
place on a large scale.
"The Sandwich Islands dates are to the 2d of July,
but the news is unimportant.

" Mr. Rice had been in further trouble at Acapulco.
He was again arrested, and his property seizsd. lon
in the steamer Oregon for Panama."

In reference to the latter paragraph the herald
says—
" The American Consul at Acapulco having been
again arrested, and his property seized by the Mexican
authorities, he deemed it prudent to leave for Panama.
Our Government should rigidly inquire into this matter
at once, and ascertain who is right and who is wrong.
Perhaps Commodore M'Auloy might be able to settle
the dispute by displaying the colours of the United
States in that vicinity occasionally."
The Democratic primary elections for the city of
New York took place on the 26th ult. Scenes of
violence, disorder, and bloodshed, unparalleled in New
York, characterised the contest, and the New York
Herald of the 27th ult. contains several pages descrip-
tive of the rioting and disgraceful confusion which
prevailed in the various wards.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—FRIDAY.
This
week's arrival of English Wheat, coastwise, has
amounted to 2,410 quarters, almost wholly from Essex
and Kent, and in very moderate condition. Fresh up
today,
the receipts by land carriage were very limited,
hence the show of samples of both red and white was
small. The few old qualities on offer were mostly dis-
Posed of at full prices, but new parcels were much
neglected, and the most inferior red sold as low as 32s
r quarter. For forward delivery, no transactions took
)14e
e. Upwards of 23,000 quarters of foreign Wheat
g come in, that grain met a very dull inquiry,
and low qualities were offering on somewhat easier
terms. Floating cargoes commanded very little attention.
Malting Barley was vary scarce, and quite as dear.
ce,
Grinding and distilling sorts commanded very little
!aoti
yet importers refused to accept lower rates. We
had a slow sale for Malt, at Monday's figures. The ar-
Ilvals of home-grown Oats were small—those of
Foreign
32,980 quarters. A fair averego business was
transacted in them, at previous currencies. Beaus and
Peas were quite as dear, but Indian Corn and Flour
Were very dull.

for the ratification of the Government.

On the morning of the 4th the Emperor assisted at

;trengliged himself, and escaped unhurt. His

SAGACITY OF THE DOG.

A most remarkable instance of the sagacity of this
noble and faithful animal was related by Dr. Von I.
land, a German physician of considerable eminence
many years ago:—., While in practice at Quebec, a
large dog, bleeding profusely from the right . leg, at-
tracted the attention of one of my students. lie was
coaxed into the surgery, when I found an artery and
tendons completely divided. I ordered the poor
animal to bo firmly secured, by which means a
ligature was applied to the bleeding vessel, and
after shaving the hair surroundini, the wound, I care-
fully applied adhesive plasters, and brought its edges
together (leaving a \small aperture for the ligature),
covered with a linen bandage. After the operation
ho was set at liberty, but to my surprise the fol-
lowing morning the dog was one of my earliest
patients, Tho bandage app eared to be undis-
turbed. I, however, removed it for the
s h
purpose
examining the state of the wound, an
of plaiter appeared to be in the adhesivel sta2teeel
y,
allowed them to remain. Oa the third day, about out th
strips
of
famn hour, the sagacious animal made his
appearance,
and impaiently (by his gestures) waited hii turn to tow mheoele
the attention of my assistant to dress anew his wounds,
to which he most gently submitted, licking ,the
time of the operation the bands of the operator. He
continued punctually to visit my surgery every morning
at the same hour until cured, which I believe was not
less that fifteen days. I found, some time after, that the
dog belonged to a respectable butcher, and, every time I
had occasion to pass his master's house, it was impossible
to avoid the extreme caresses and fondness which the
animal displayed by its alert gestures and jumping, and
even following me through all my visits to my patients,
until he saw me safely to my own lodgings, when he im-
diately departed for his master's house, and what is more
extraordinary, all the enticing means resorted to by the
students and myself never could prevail upon the dog to
enter the surgery after be was dismissed as cared."

practical test of upwards of 60 years, and by the numerous (between

with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Care of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generative System, or Sexual Hypothrondrittsis. Translated from
the German of Dr. PICKFORD, of the University of Heidelberg.
—" Dr. rickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his
power to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851.
—" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this
distressing malady by translating this little-book, and by laying bare
the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to
cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object
than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Sperma-
torrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are
accurately described, and
,thus a safe guide is offered for the
treatment of the malady —Medical Circular, May 5, 1852.
—" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preliminary
chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of
the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate
price at which the `brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of
every one interested in the matter. Dublin Medical Press, April

PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS ON THE TREATMENT OF

its Inefficiency and Danger.
BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

"Those who complain most loudly are those only who know not
bow to use the common instruments
geons has been mar red with all kinds of violence, an indifference
about the simple cure of diseases, and a passion for operations and
all the excesses and horrors of surgery."—John Bell's Surgical
Observations.—" In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) has
given the history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. Syme adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such Are cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
removed hi as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. appear, .both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
treatment adopted by Dir. Courtenay proved eminently successful."

SWITZERLAND.
The Council of State of the Valais, in Switzerland,
has just published a message announcing that it has
unanimously voted the revision of the Constitution.
The Council states that it participated in the doubts
that had been expressed as to the period fixed by the
electoral law for its renewal; and therefore convokes
the electors at once. The message adds that, as the
enemies of the Constitution had complained that it
was voted during the military federal occupation, it
has been resolved to take the same opportunity of
consulting the people as to the Constitution.
