LONDON, TILBURY, AND SOUTHEND..

Yesterday the half-yearly meeting was held at
,he London Tavern—Mr. J.N.Daniell in the chair.

The report stated that the receipts for the half-
year amounted to £32,796, and the expenses to
£17,399, leaving a balance of £15,397.
The CHAIRMAN, in proposing its adoption, said
there was an increase during the past half-year SS;
compared with the preceding of £1,300. At the
Southend portion of the line there was considerable
improvement going on, nearly 100 houses being
occupied and others being about to be built. The
Gravesend portion of the line was not so remune—
rative as it used to be, but the line was decidedly
improving.
Mr. WATTS inquired what was being done with
respect to the proposed independence of the line.
Mr. TITE, M.P., the chairman of the committee
of shareholders, said that the bill for that purpose
had passed a second reading, and would go into
committee shortly, when the question would be
settled. A petition had been presented from the
Eastern Counties against it.
The report having been adopted, Mr. Whethani
was re-appointed auditor, and the proceedings ter-
minated.

BRIGHTON, UCKFIELD, AND TUNBRIDGE-

WELLS.
The second ordinary meeting was held yesterday
at the offices, Parliament.street—Mr. J, Cary 111
the chair.

The report stated that the directors had been in-
duced to come to an understanding with the con-
tractor for the immediate construction of the first,
section of the line between Tunbridge-wells and
Groombridge (about five miles), thus opening a
very important part of the ccuntry. The directors
were considering the effect of the bill before
Parliament for a line to be called " The East Grin-
stead, Groombridge, and Tunbridge-wells Railway
Company, in which it was proposed to take powers
to run over part of their line. The directors hoped'
that owners and occupiers in the district would
afford every reasonable assistance in carrying out.
the undertaking. The report was adopted.

ROYAL PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

"The Victoria Rifles" have just given their annual
amateur dramatic performance, at the above theatre. The
pieces selected were "Delicate Ground," "Good for
Nothing," "Box and Cox," and the "Life Task," an
original drama, never before acted. The performance went
off very well, Mr. Haggard, Mr. Murray, and other gentle-
men, succeeding in amusing their friends greatly. The
committee were fortunate enough to secure the services of
that charming actress, Miss Carlotta Leclercq, and
also those of Miss Powell, and these two ladies per-
' formed in the several pieces admirably, Miss Carlotta
Leclereq playing the heroine in the "Life Task"
with great power and genuine feeling, and Miss Po well in
the character of Nan in " Good-for-Nothing," keeping the
house in a roar by her fresh and excellent humour, The
"Life Task" was a great undertaking for amateurs, being a
serious drama, but the author has a good idea of dramatic
composition, and the drama contains telling situations. The
author, Mr, Richard Lee, acted his own hero. Such a
play upon such a night laboured under many difficulties
and disadvantages, but we thchk there is stuff in it.
The house was crowded, and the audience a most brilliant
one. The excellent band belonging to the Victoria Rifles
attended, and altogether the night may be pronounced to'
have been a success,

By Dr. LA'MinT, 37, Bedford-square, London.
Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh;
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, &c.
The above work contains most useful and interesting
information on the physiological changes which occur
in the Reproductive System during. the periods of youth,
puberty, and manhood ; and on the due attainment of that
de res of functional vigour upon which the hopes of posterity
depend. It also points out how all the attributes of Man-
hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they
are lost, and how they can be recovered. It is free from the
gross exaggerations, alarming descriptions, and dangerous
rentidies so generally resorted to by persons, who, prac-
tisinz with false medical qualifications, inflict most serious
injuries, and render judicious treatment frequently abortive.
The Author is the only legally qualified practitioner
whose name stands on the Medical Register (the only
true test of medical qualification), who has been exclu-
sively engaged for a series of years in the treatment of the
variou, functional disorders of the nervous and reproductive
system, which, owing to the great discoveries of modern
science, are rendered subservient to a ratipnal, simple,
and easy mode of treatment.

"The author has conferred a great boon by publishing this
little work, in which is described the source of those diseases
which produce decline in youth or more frequently premature
old age."—" Daily Telegraph," March 27, 185 a.
" This work, which for twenty years has stood the test of
professional criticism and empirical hostility, treats in a plain
and sympathising manner on the various disqualifications
nd
impediments arising from nervous excitement and de-
bility ; and to invalids suffering from youthful errors and
xcesses it will be found valuable and useful."—Record.

THE SUN.

LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1862.

The Federals seem to be advancing on all sides.
We left General BURNSIDE at Elizabeth City. He
has since advanced to Edentown, which surrendered
without resistance, 3,000 stand of arms being cap-
tured, and all the gunboats but two destroyed.
Farther south on the Atlantic active measures were
being taken to attack Charleston itself with heavy
artillery, and Savannah was deprived of water by
cutting the pipes. It looks now as if the Federals
meant to commence the aggression in earnest on
the Atlantic seaboard.
But in the %Vest the Confederates appear to be
bard pressed. The dispersing of ZOLLICOFFER'S
army and the capture of Fort Henry bas now been
followed by an attack on Fort Donnelson, and ac-
cording to the very latest telegrams, to Portland,
by its capture. The attack commenced on the 13th ;
the garrison was large, said to be fifteen thousand,
under four generals. Of the particulars of the
capture nothing is yet known, except that the
gunboats took an active part in the engagement.
The capture of this fort has compelled the Federals
on the East of the Mississippi to fall back in every
direction. They have been obliged to evacuate
Bowling Green, in Ktntecky, and the Federals are
advancing southwards to Nashville, the capital of
Tennessee, and to Memphis, its extreme southern

oN TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRIVEA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. fickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he infbrms us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that 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.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressine, 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 Spermatorrheea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for

Southsea, the speed was slackened from full to

three-quarter at about its narrowest part, when the
ship's bow inclined towards the shore, and all the
exertions of the pilot and the men at the wheel had
no effect—the ship's bow had taken the ground.
" Astern full speed" was the order instantly given,
and off she came ; but she had got so far on the
shoals that of necessity the stern next took the
ground. and for some minutes so hung. Head sails
loosed and engines going ahead at full speed, how-
ever, again extricated the ship from her perilous
position, and shortly afterwards she was safely
berthed alongside the dockyard. This deficiency of
command over the ship in the steering power is de-
veloped in the Defence to a greater extent than in
the Warrior; but the Warrior under slow speed,
and especially with the wind abaft, also possesses
this very undesirable quality to an alarming extent,
or at least she did when undergoing her trials of
speed as the Defence has done. One most remark-
able quality of the Defence's steering, and one that
may possibly lead to the discovery of the defect as
regards it is, that although she may be under full
steam, and the order is given " hard a-starboard" or
" a-port" as may be required, it will take some 45
or 50 seconds before she gives any token of feeling
the effects of the alteration of her helm. Yet, once
she pays off, no ship can do so more readily ; that
is, taking into consideration her length, as the time
given in making her circles, &c., will fully prove.
Whether rising floors, no keels, doable bilge-
pieces, and small rudders have anything, if not all,
to do with this defective steering, we must leave
scientific men to decide ; always bearing in mind
that the first moments lost in a ship's answering
her helm are the very moments on which, some
day, may depend her safety or destruction.
The ship's outer appearance, in both hull and
rig, is certainly anything but pleasing to the eye,
or in accordance with our previously understood
notions of beauty or grace in marine architecture.
Her straight line of bulwark fore and aft, with-
out the slightest spring—in fact, depressing, if
anything, at either end—her queer-looking stem,
with her anchors hanging as near to it as possible,
and her light bowsprit projecting from it almost
below the level of her upper deck—all this gives
her an uncanny, almost weird-like appearance; but
when to these points is combined the appearance of
her rig aloft, her short fore and main topmasts (she
is bark rigged), and long mastheads with double
topsail yards stowed polacre-wise, with no topgal-
lant masts, then the picture is complete, and the
11 oldest seaman who looks upon her can but acknow-
ledge that, to say the least, he never saw the like
before. The celebrated yacht Alarm, the pride of
English yacht clubs, if she had her bow and stern

EAST INDIA TRANSPORT SERVICE.

On the motion of Mr. ADAM, an address for a copy of
any correspondence which had taken place between the
India-office and the Admiralty relative to the proposed re-
moval from the India-office of the transport of troops and
stores to India, was ordered.
CONDITION OF THE RIVERS SHANNON AND

, SWAB E.
Col. FRENCH asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, if
any steps have been taken by the Irish Government to
inquire into the facts contained in the memorial presented
to the Lord Lieutenant relative to the condition of the
rivers Shannon and Swabe, agreed on at a public meeting
of the landowners, landholders, &c., held, at Athlone in
November last ; and when a reply to such memorial ma)
be expected.

Mr. F. PEEL, in the absence of Sir Robert Peel, said
there would be no objection on the part of Government to
an inquiry into the subject; but at the same time it was
considered that any expensive alterations which might be
made should be defrayed by the landowners in the neigh-
bourhood of those rivers.

Col FRENCH asked if it was intended to return the
£300,000 that had been advanced for works which had not
been executed?
Mr. F. PEEL said that there was no evidence to show
that such works had not been executed.
THE ALLEGED DISTRESS IN IRELAND.

Mr. GREGORY, drew the attention of the right hon.
baronet the Secretary for Ireland, to a letter he had quoted.
In that letter he (Mr. Gregory) said that there was great
distress in Ireland arising from want of fuel.
Sir R. PEEL said that the letter of the hon. member
was dated on the 12th of November, and it stated that the
hon. member believed there was:a sufficient supply of food.
He stated, however, that there was a scarcity of fuel, and
he generously threw open his property to the poor in the
neighbourhood, to enable them to get a supply of such fuel.

TO THE EDITOR OP THE TIMES.

Sir,—Lest it might be inferred that I am one of the de-
faulting contractors alluded to last night in the House of
Commons, or that I have " sued the Admiralty in forma
pauperis" to be relieved from my engagements, as implied
by the following erroneous statement of his lordship—viz.,
" He had not heard that they had refused to give Mr.
Trotman's anchor an extra trial at Woolwich, but this he
knew, that the Admiralty some months ago ordered an
anchor of Mr. Trotman, and could not get it supplied ;" I
aver solemnly no such order has at any time been trans-
mitted to me by the Admiralty. The Storekeeper-General
on the 22d of July, 1861, requested to be informed " the
price per cwt. of an anchor 95cwt., instead of 111 cwt., to I
be delivered at her Majesty's Dockyard, Woolwich ;"
which elicited the following answer :—" That I was the
inventor only, and not a maker or dealer in anchors, and
annex the names of many licensed makers of Trotman's
anchors."

A month since the eminent firms of Hawks, Crawshay,
and Sons actually delivered to the authorities the anchor in
question, and the following is an exact copy of my note to
the Superintending Lord of the Admiralty, dated
" The Waiting-room, Admiralty, Feb. 8, 1862.
" duly attended yesterday at her Majesty's
Dockyard, Woolwich, and proposed, as before stated to
you, my intention of submitting the 94cwt. anchor ordered
for the Warrior to an unprecedented test—viz., 100 per
cent. over-proof, or such as would be applied to an Admi-
ralty anchor of double its weight (say 190 cwt.) But the
officers hesitated in your absence, or without special sanc-
tion, to accede to my request. The purport, therefore, of
this note is to solicit permission accordingly, and, as a
matter of course, I assume and do hereby assume every
responsibility of consequences accruing therefrom to the
anchor."

The extraordinary performanees of last night, and re-
markable apathy of hos. members, granting in a few hours
some £12,000,000 sterling for the Navy Estimates, will
preclude all other opportunity, except through the medium
of your columns, of setting my character right with the
public. Earnestly soliciting insertion of this communica-
tion, I am, &C.,

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—A CANDIDATE FOR PENAL
SERVITUDE.—WiIIiam Brown, alias Broom, better known
by the soubriquet of
remand charged with stealing a silver watch and a gold
guard, valued at £l7 10s., from the person of Mr. William
Radcliff, a stevedore of No. 6, Prince's-street, Ratcliff-
highway. "Nimble Bill," was brought up on
A few nights ago Mr. Radcliff left his home with a jug
in his hand for the purpose of obtaining the supper beer for
himself and family, and was about to enter a public-house
when the prisoner accosted him and made a sudden and
very rough snatch at his watch guard, and dragged it from
him with the watch. Before Mr. Radcliff could recover
from his surprise, the prisoner was off with the watch and
chain. Instant pursuit was made after the fellow, who
well deserved the title of "Nimble Bill," for he soon
out-stripped his pursuers and was lost sight of, Mr.
Radcliff gave immediate information to the police, and from
his description the prisoner was apprehended on the fol-
lowing morning as he' was entering a coffee-shop in Rat-
cliff-highway. He stoutly denied the charge made against
him, and said he was not in the Back-road, St. George,
where the robbery was committed, on the night in ques-
tion. Mr, Radcliff had seen him 100 times in the Back-
road, and knew him well.

Daniel Davey, a police constable, No. 109 11, said the
prisoner was only 20 years of age, and had been in custody
10 or 11 times for robberies, and summarily convicted seve-
ral times. The prisoner was convicted in March, 1860, in
that court for stealing a watch; and sentenced to six months
impriscnment and hard labour, and in March, 1861, he rel
ceived a similar sentence for a watch robbery.

The prisoner pleaded guilty, and begged of the magis-
trate to "settle it here." He was informed the powers of
the court were exhausted, and was committed fur trial at

:he sessions.
