THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITH'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis itf at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
Intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin.
oiplets."
London, England, 1862-04-15

He concluded by proposing in very eulogistic terms,
" the health of the Chairman," who had not only
earned sufficient to maintain his wife and himself
in comfort for their lives, but had given vitality to
two theatres which it was supposed could not pos-
sibly exist.
The CHAIRMAN returned thanks, and the list of
subscriptions, amounting to several hunlreds of
pounds, having been gone through, other toasts
followed, the intervals being filled with musical
selections admirably performed.

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of

removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,

Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable

ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—'Aledical Circular.

COMME:NCEMENT OF EASTER TERM.

•
This being the first day of Easter Term the Lord Chan-
cellor entertained the Judges, her Majesty's Sergeants, and
Queen's Counsel at breakfast, at his mansion, in Belgrave-
square.

After the entertainment the Judges proceeded, in pro-
cession, to their respective courts in Westminster Hall,
where a great number of persons had collected to view the
proceedings.

The Judges wore their State robes, and the Sergeants
and Queens'Counsel also appeared in full forensic costume.
The term is expected to be a very busy one, both in law
and equity. There is a list of 99 cases in the Divorce Court.
Sir Cresswell Cresswell will sit on Wednesday at West-
minster for motions, not being able to sit to-day for the
want of accommodation. The term is extended five days
on account of the holidays, and before its expiration on the
12th of May it is expected that the arrears of the common
law courts, numbering about 200, will be reduced.

By an order which will take effect te• day, every special
case, special verdict, and bill of exceptions, must be divided
into paragraphs, and confined to a distinct portion of the
subject, and numbered. The business of the equity courts
is not in arrear.

RAILWAY BILLS.

Yesterday a committee of the—House of Lords
met, consisting of the Marquis of Bristol, chairman,
Viscount Sydney, Lord Stewart of Garlies, Lord
Silebeeer and Lord Tetnplemore, to whom are re-
ferred the bills of the Great Western Railway far
additional powers. East Glocestershire, Shrews-
bury and Hereford, Somerset Central, and Dorset
Central Railways. The bill of the Great Western
was opened and evidence taken.
Another committee, consisting of the Duke of
Richmond, chairman, Earl Amherst, Viscount de
Vesci, Viscount Lifford, and Lord Monteagle, met
to consider the bills of the Bala any? Dolgelly,
Corwen and Bala, Vale of Clwyd, and Greenock
and Weymes. The case for the first bill was opened.
In the Commons the case of the Oswestry lines was
opened in Lord Stanley's committee. The commit-
tees on the South Yorkshire, Hull Extensions, and
other bills, were occupied in taking evidence.

THE ACCIDENT AT THE FLEET DITCH.

LATEST PARTICULARS.

We are glad to say that in consequence of the
elaereetio measures taken to secure the enormous
culvert cf the Fleet Ditch, in Victoria-street, from
further breakage and the restoration of the damaged
property from further injury, all apprehension
either for one or the other, or the close lying rail-
way, has been removed. From a more close exami-
nation of the sewer way yesterday morning, it ap-
pears that the pressure of the water therein at the
time of the occurrence was one of the causes of the
accident, and that the removal of the earth along-
side of it, especially at this weak point, to the depth
of about 30 feet, also contributed to produce the re-
sult already before the public, though no defects in
the roadway had been noticed before the sinking of
the corner of the street and the rush of water into
the works and the cellars of the houses in Ray-street
and other contiguous low-lying localities. Con-
sidering the vast work being effected at this point
of the Metropolitan line, the damage done is but
trifling; and yesterday morning the mischief done,
and the temporary delay caused by the occurrence,
were fully overcome, and an additional force of
bricklayers are busily engaged in building a
continuation of the massive battening .walls
by the side of the broken portion, in order
to make them perfect as speedily as possible,
when there will scarcely be a possibility of a
similar occurrence. Several workmen are at work
making good the brickwork of the Fleet Ditch, and
about 50 or 60 others are employed in consolidating
the roadway between Ray-street and Vine-street,
the whole of that portion of Victoria-street being
closed to the public as a thoroughfare, to enable the
navvies to proceed as fast as the circumstances of
the case will permit them to do.

BILL.

Mr. ALCOCK, in moving the second reading of this bill,
said that the measure did not propose any compromise,
but merely provided a capital fund, raised by voluntary
contribution, to render the Church independent of a com-
pulsory rate.
Mr. EVANS seconded the motion.
Mr. NEWDEGATE said he had a bill for commutation
before the house, but he had deferred it at the request of
Mr. Estcourt, who had given a notice of resolutions on the
subject of church-rates. He thought the bill now before
the house and that he (Mr. Newdegate) proposed should
be referred to a select committee.

Sir G. GREY said he had no objection to the second
reading if the bill was only meant to affirm a principle, but
the provisions of the bill were extremely defective.
Mr. PACKE thought the bill would be entirely inope-
rative, and moved that it be read a second time that day
six months.

Mr. SPOONER seconded the amendment,
Mr. ESTCOURT advised the postponement of the bill
until the fate of his resolutions cn Tuesday became known.
The debate was adjourned till this day week.

The semi-cfficial Allgerneine Preussi4che (Stern)

" In the whole of Germany there exists no diffe-
rence of opinion as to the inevitable necessity of
rapidly progressing with this urgent question.
" Prussia is the least able to look quietly upon
any intentional hesitation on the part of the Elec.
WI-al Government.

" We confidently expect that no such hesitation
will occur, and that it will not, therefore, be
necessary to give to the undiminished military
arrangements of Prussia that effect which was only
*postponed on account of a hope of the readiness of
Cassel to carry out the desired reforms."

THE FIRE AT ST. PETERSBURG.—It is' stated
from St. Petersburg that of the £1,000,000 property esti-
mated to have been destroyed by the recent fires only about
£220,000 was covered by insurance. The question as to
the calamity having been. caused by incendiaries seems still
in some degree to be doubtful. One writer observes :
"Whether it was caused wilfully or accidentally I cannot
say. Several arrests have been made of officers. There
are always some few young madmen, but you may be
assured that the soldiers and the people are to a man with
the Emperor. The serf question has dissatisfied some pro-
prietors, and among these there may be grumbling and a
little more,' but as for 'insurrection' or general disturb-
ance that is impossible. The ' million' are for law and
order and the Emperor."

CRYSTAL PALACE.--The preparations for the
Handel Festival aro now proceeding with great vigour.
The stands are nearly all placed, the refreshment counters
on each side of the orchestra have been removed, the niches
behind filled in with statuary and drapery, and additional
seats arc being erected in the galleries. The ticket-offices
at the Crystal Palace and Exeter Hall were crowded with
applicants for tickets the whole of yesterday. The sale of
78. Gd, rehearsal tickets will close to-morrow.

This number opens with a review of Mr. Cob-

the writer says :—" Mr. Cobden's pamphlet is a
most able expose of the mismanagement of our
Naval Department, while the official mis-
statements which it so thoroughly exposes
on points on which the country should
have the most correct information, if it has
any at all, are enough to shake the most ordinary
confidence in public men." There is a fifth article
on " The British Cavalry and its Organisation."
'rho pamphlet of Admiral Sir George Sartorius
on invasion rams and naval warfare is noticed, and
among other articles we may notice " Personal
Experience of American Politics," and " The Battle
of the Volturno," the latter being written by an
Anglo-Neapolitan officer of the Royal Army.
