large proportions would soon be discovered. Some con-
tend that the best plan would be to raise a fund of some
two or three hundred pounds in Launceston, and send
'out four working parties properly equipped for every
emergency, and let them work with a combined concen-
tration of purpose. This plan would succeed; but those
who work and go a prospecting at their own expense

The Prince President of the Republic has addressed
a letter to the Duchess de Grament, full of the most
affectionate sentiments, in which he says that, in-
formed too late of the time at which the funeral of
Count d'Orsay, her brother, was to take place, he
much regretted that he could not send his household
to attend, as a feeble mark of the grief he felt at the
I loss of one of his best friends.
The Maniteur of this day says—" The Ministerial
crisis, which has lasted for upwards of a fortnight in
Belgium, has prevented the Belgian Plenipotentiaries
from concluding a definitive commercial treaty be-
tween France and Belgium. The convention of 1845
having expired on the 10th inst., commercial matters
have de jure heen replaced under the empire of the
common tariffs of the two countries. Nevertheless
the negotiations continue, and it may be hoped that
they will terminate favourably."
The Siele, alluding to the commercial relations
between France and Belgium, sa7s—" We think we
can positively affirm that the Belgian Commissioners
assembled yesterday at the Foreign-office, and that
consequently the hopes of a provisional arrangement
have not yet vanished."
The Courrier de Lyon states that the President
of the Republic is expected at that place on the 25th
inst., and that he will be present at the inauguration
of the equestrian statue of the Emperor, which, after
having been exhibited to the public on the 15th, in
the Champs Elysees, will be immediately removed to
Lyons.
A Paris letter in the Emancipation of Brussels
says—" A very energetic measure has been taken
against the correspondent of a Hungarian journal.
This correspondent has been expelled from the French
territory. He came to Paris in 1848 with M.

MOAUMENT TO THE LATE THOMAS
HOOD.

----.,--
We are glad to lea— rn that a subscription has been
commenced for erecting a monument in Kensal•green
Cemetery, to the memory of Thomas hood. Amongst
the subscribers are, the Duke of Devonshire, Letd
Charles
Duke, M.P., Mr. Macaulay, M.P., Mr. Disraeli, Di.
Brougham, Earls of Carlisle and Ellesmere, Sir James
MICAY, Douglas Jerrold, Westland Marston,
Eliza Cook, Miss Mitford, and others. It is, we believe,
chiefly owing
to the powerful and touching appeals to
the public made by Eliza Cook—a poetess whom Hood
himself would have been proud to call a sister—that this
movement has proved so tar successful. Miss Couk acts
as treasurer to the fund, but we shall be happy to receive
subscriptions and forward them to that lady. The quiet
and unostentatious manner in which 1761. have been
already subscribed, is a great honour to the fair projec-
tor and her cooperators. Hood was a great poet and
a good man, and the lady who is effecting this record to
his worth is doing a womanly and noble act. Among
the local subscribers are Mr. Ald. Turton, Mr. Ald. Mat-
thews, Jos. and W. Turton, Esqrs., Asline Ward, Esq.,
C. H. and W. Waring, Esqrs., of Haworth Hall, Bother-
haM.—Sheffield independent.

REVIVAL OF CONVOCATION.

Yesterday afternoon a meeting of the rectors, vicars,
and incumbents of the City and Archdeanonry of Lon-
don, all of whom are ex officio Fellows of Sion College
was held in the large ball of that institution, in ac-
cordance with the following roquisition :
" To the Rev. the President of Zion College.

" Rev. and dear Sir,-77e, the undersigned Fellows of
Zion College, believing that the revival of the active
powers of Convocation is, under present circumstances,
inexpedient, request that you will have the goodness to
call a meeting of the Fellows, to consider the measures
which ought to be adopted by them in reference to that
subject."
Tick Rev. R. RUDDOCK, M.A.. the president of Zion
Ce:ilege, occupied the chair.
A long and warm discussion having taken place re-
specting the legality of the meeting, which was impugned
hems° some of the Fellows had not been summoned to
attend,
The Rev. Dr. M`CAtri., rector of St. Magnus the
Martyr, and representative of the cloro of the arch-
deaconry of London in Convocation, addressed the
meeting at great length in deprecation of the revival.
The rev. doctor concluded by moving the following re-
solu'ion:—" That a report having been widely circulated
that a majority of the clergy of the Church of England
and Ireland are desirous that the Convocation now as-
sembled should be allowed to proceed to business, the
president and fellows of Sion College beg to be permitted
to state that they do not participate in ihat feeling, nor
b-lieve that under present circumstances such a course
would be expedient."
The Rev. W. Joutisex, 8.D., rector of St. Clement,
Easteheap, seconded the motion.
The Rev. J. J. TOOGOOD, rector of St. Andrew's Hol-
born, moved as an amendment that the meeting should be
adjourned sine die.
The Rev. W. SCOTT, incumbant of Christ Church,
Heston, seconded the amendment. He believed there
was an obscurity in the mild form of the requisition,
which appeared merely to protest against the revival of
convocation at the present time, but which went directly
against synodal action under any circumstances—in fact,
against that most sacred synod of all which was sum-
moned by the apostles at Jerusalem. (Cheers, and cries
of " No, no.")
The Rev. W. GooDE, rector of Allhallows, Thames-
street, expressed his approbation of the motion proposed
by Dr. M'Caul.
The Rev. Dr. WORTHINGTON, incumbent of Trinity
Church, Gray's-inn-road, and the Rev. Trios. DARLING,
having spoken in favour of the revival of convocation,

few places of amusement in the metropolis are better
worth visiting than the Strand Theatre as at present

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS—Nov. 8.

The November general sessions was commenced this
morning at Clerkenwell. before Mr. Sorjeaut Adams,
Assistant Judge, and Mr. Williams. There are for
trial 29 prisoners charged with felony, and five who are
charged with misdemeanour.
THE PADDINGTON NUISANCE CASE.
The dust contractors, Gore, Tame, Darks, and Messrs.
Collins, appeared to receive the judgment of the Court.
These defendants, it may be remembered, were con-
victed in 1850, with another named Stapleton, of a com-
mon nuisance, in allowing the filth and refuse
of the metropolis to accumulate in vast heaps on
wharves adjoining the Grand Junction Canal at
Paddington. Judgment was not then pronounced,
but since that time the matter has beon repeat-
edly before the Court, and on one occasion Mr. Sta-
pleton, one of the defendants not now present, was fined
3004 because he had not fulfilled promises he had made
to the Assistant-Judge to the effect that the accumula-
tion of the refuse of Covent-garden market should not
be continued. The nuisances occasioned by the other
wharves were not then so great as formerly; bat the
whole of the other defendants now appeared to receive
judgment at the instance of the parish authorities, by
whom the prosecution was instituted.
The Assistant-Judge particularly cautioned Gore as to
how he conducted his business for the future, and then
sentenced each of the defendants to pay a fine of is.

Doctor of M c Heine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin-
burgh, Ho, it ,rary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiate o f Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful
consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which
have produce I more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and 1)1T( nature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class cf disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment
adopted is fee ended on experience gained in the most celebrated
schools of me( ticine 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 qualid ed physicians who have devoted their whole and un-
divided studie s to this important branch of medical science. In short,
every peculial ity relating, to the treatment of the diseases incidental
to the genera rive systom, and the means of immediate relief and
ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation
of Dr. La'Me rt, who has taken the most distinguished medical
and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient
guarantee tb at those who may place themselves under his care
will, in ever; r instance, meet with that delicate consideration and
inviolable as crecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these
cases.

EARTHQUAKE AT LiT'SRPOOL, 6.c.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
LINBAPOOL, TUESDAY,
Two shocks of an earthquake, preceded by a
rumbling noise, were very sensibly felt in this town
and neighbourhood about 20 minutes past four
o'clock this morning. Each of
,the shocks was very
violent, and of several seconds duration. We do
not hear of any damage being sustained
in the town
or neighbourhood. Since the shocks were felt there
has been a alight fall of rain.
The following telegraphic dispatches have been
received from Bangor and Holyanads where the
earthquake was also felt.

FRANCE.

The Mon:Lur gives, in an Extraordinary Supple-
ment, the minutes of the proceedings of the Senate of
the 4th, 6th, and 7th of November, the senatus eon-
sultum presented on Sunday at St. Cloud, with the
decrees convoking the people and the Senate.
The Message cf the Prince President is the same
as that which has already been publi:,hed. ,The
speech of Prince Jerome is in some respects an echo
of the Message, yet the following portion is re-
markable :

" That which the French people did in 1804 it does
again in 1852, thus showing how constant it is in grati-
tude and just in judgment. How can we fail t,) rrCorn
the finger of Providence, which, in our worst days, has
not ceased to watch over France, in this phenomenon of
Events almost identical reproducing themselves at 50
years' distarcw? Popular instinct, which acclaimed Na-
poleon 1., reveals itself anew to-day in acclaiming isTapo-
loon 111., the Prince who for four years has governed
France with so much wisdom and ability.
The following are the names of the ten who signed
the proposition for a modification of the constitution:
--MM. Mesnard, Troplong, General Baraguay,
d'ililliers, Cardinal Du Pont, General d'Hautpoul,
Baron Lacrosse, Marshal Vaillant, General St. Jean
d'Angely, Count Simeon, and General d'Ornaoo.

MahUMENT TO THE LATE THOMAS
HOOD.

We are glad to learn that u subscription has been
commenced for erecting
a monument in Kensal-green
Cemetery, to the memory of Thomas Hood. AmonAst
the subscribers are, the Duke of Devonshire, Lord
Brougham, Earls of Carlisle and Ellesmere, Sir James
Duke,
Charles M'Ray, Westland Marston,
M.P., Mr. Macaulay, M.P., Mr. Disraeli, Dr,
Douglas Jerrold,
Eliza Cook, Miss Mitford, and others. It is, we believe,
chiefly owing to the powerful and touching appeals to
the public made by Eliza. Cook—a poetess whom Hood
himself would have been proud to call a sister—that this
movement has proved so tar successful. Miss Cook acts
as treasurer to the fund, but We shall be brppy to receive
subscriptions and forward them to that lady. The quiet
and unostentatious manner in which 1761. have been
already subscribed, is a great honour to the fair projec-
tor and her co-operators. Hood was a great poet and
a good man, and the lady who is effecting this record to
his worth is doing a womanly and noble act. Anlong
the local subscribers are Mr. Ald. Turton, Mr. Ald. Mat-
thews, Jos. and W. Turton, Esqrs., Asline Ward, Esq.,

STRAND THEATRE.

Mr. Mambolton, under whose management this pretty
little theatre has been doing a prosperous business with
on admirable " sable " company, took his benefit last
evening, when a new original sketch, by Mr. J. Rogers,
was successfully produced, entitled Paul, or the Fortunate
Slave. Pell, Hooley, Price and Co. continuo their pe-
culiar feats with great applause nightly, and certainly
few places of amusement in the metropolis are better
worth visiting than the Strard Theatre as at present
conducted. Mr. Dumbolton's managerial exertions
were deservedly appreciated by a bumper house.

Underwriters'-rooms, this week, as wrecked or petting

ADELPHI THEATRE,

The Flouers of the Forest was revived last evening
The serious cast remains in all essentials the same fib
heretofore, with the exception of Starlight Bess, who was
formerly
played by Mrs. Fitzwilliam, but who loses
none of }ler force end humour in the hands of Mrs.
Keeley. Cheap John, the comic character, formerly
sustained by Mr. Wright, was played by Mr. H. Bed-
ford.

The farce of A iVife for a Day. . was revived last
night for the reappearance of Mr. Silsbee. The cha-
racter. is that of an uncouth and even clownish Yankee,
who, In spite of his rough exterior and his superabund-
„isms, Performs most chival-
rousarea of Transatlantic vulgarisms,
. feats, taking upon himsalf the odium of a marriage
with a very suspicious lady, merely to conceal the fact
that the is secretly married to his br,
P other, and under-
lug a host of disagreeables and perils out of pure fra-
ternal affection. Mr. Silsbee, in the part of this gallant i
unwashed, is precisely the same as n the Yankee Plough-
boy; but, if there is not variety is his humour, there is
at any rate plenty of unction, and his stories and his-
chuckles elicited repeated roars. The little part of the
French danseuse, the lady about whom all the trouble
Mrs. Wigan
arises, was sustained in a piquant manner by
