Sequences resultirg trom certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
,which have-proauc,ed more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-

other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
Particularly:rscommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physiod condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded

ntitfed.
It is absolutely necessary thatall men Should know, that there are
Drincil>les.,f personal- management which cannot be violated without
merit ring grievous p tia/ ties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
Day be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
rd how the evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and above all,
'tt there is scarcely any decree of physical infirmity or functional
?erangernent to which the timely aid of science camiot apply a cure.
The-11.liter has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
Practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have

Expedition and despatch are the principles by which E. MOSES
and Sox have been enabled to transact more business, and to produce
more satisfact.on than any other establishment, and they have hid
the'grestest success in Dress to order and ready made, in the produc-
tion of New Styles for each season, in Artistic inventions, which se-
cure the most gentlemanly and fashionable appearance, and are
more conducive to comfort than any which have been hitherto in-
troduced. For the 'Winter season, E. Moses and Sores Overcoats,
Paletots, Capes, Wrappers, Reversibles, Waterproof Clothing, and
Winter Dress for all classes, are distinguished by very many novel
and peculiar featurV, displayed in the manufacture of materials,

Exhibitions; the prices are very economical, and the goods of the
best possible kinds.

benefits which the public derive from orders and purchases at the
establishments of E. MOSES and SON.

AMERICAN TREATY WITH RUSSIA.

FREE SHIPS MAKE FREE GOODS.

Whereas, a Convention between the United States
of America and his Majesty the Emp•>ror of all the
Russias was concluded and signed by their respective
plenipotentiaries at Washington on the 22d day of July
last, which convention is as follows :

The United States of America and his Majesty the
Emperor of all the Russias, equally animated with a
desire to maintain and preserve from all harm the rela-
tions of good understanding which have at all times so
happily subsisted between themselves, as also between
the inhabitants of their respective States, have mutually
agreed to perpetuate, by means of a formal convention,
the principles of the right of neutrals at sea, which they
recognise as indispensable conditions of all freedom of
navigation and maritime trade—for this purpose the
President of the United States has conferred full powers
on William L. Marcy, Secretary of State of the United
States ; and his Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias
has conferred like powers on Mr. Edouard de Stoeckl,
Counsellor of State, knight of the orders of Ste, Anne,
of the 2d class, of gt. Stanislas, of the 4th class, and of
the Iron Crown of Austria, of the 3d class, his Majesty's
charge d'affaires near the Government of the United
States of America ; and said plenipotentiaries, after
having exchanged their full powers, found in good and
due form, have concluded and signed the following
articles:—

Article I.—The two high contracting parties recog-
nise as permanent and immutable the following prin-
ciples, to wit : . .

1. That free goods make free ships—that is to say,
that the effects or goods belonging to subjects or citi-
zens of a Power or State at war are free from capture
and confiscation when found on board of neutral ves-
sels, with the exception of articles contraband of war.
2. That the property of neutrals on board an enemy's
vessel is not subject to confiscation, unless the same be
contraband of war. They engage to apply these prin-
ciples to the commerce and navigation of all such Powers
and States as shall consent to adopt them on their part,
as permanent and immutable.
Article 2.—The two high contacting parties reserve
themselves 'to come to an ulterior understanding, as
circumstances may require, with regard to the applica-
tion and extension to be given, if there be any cause
for it, to the principles laid down in the first article.
But they declare from this time that they will take the
stipulations contained in said article 1 as a rule, when-
ever it shall become a question, to judge of the rights of
neutrality.
Article 3.—lt is agreed by the high contracting par-
ties that all nations which shall or may consent to ac-
cede to the rules or the first article of this convention,
by a formal declaration stipulating to observe them, shall
enjoy the rights resulting from such accession as they
shall be enjoyed and observed by the two Powers sign.
ing this convention. They shall mutually communicate
to each other. the results of the steps which may be
taken on the subject.
Article 4.—The present convention shall be approved
and ratified by the President of the United States of
America, by and with the advice and consent of the
Senate of said States, and his Majesty the Emperor of
all the Russias, and the ratification of the same shall be
exchanged at Washington within the period of ten
months, counting from this day, or sooner, if possible.
In faith whereof, the respective plenipotentiaries have
signed the present convention in duplicate, and thereto
affixed the seal of their arms.
Done at Washington, the 22d day of July, in the year
of Grace, 1854.
W. L. Millar [L. S.]
EDOUARD STORM, [L. S.]

And whereas, the said convention has been duly
ratified on both parts, and the respective ratifications of
the law were exchanged in this city on the 31st ultimo,
by William L. Marcy, Secretary of State -of the United
States, and Mr. Edouard de Stoeckl, his Imperial
Najesty's Charge d'Affaires to this Government, on the
part of their respective Governments.
Now, therefore, be it known that I, Franklin Pierce,
President of the United States of America, have caused
the said convention to be made public, to the end that
the same, and every clause and article thereof, may be
observed and fulfilled with good faith by the United
States and the citizens thereof.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this Ist day of
November, in the year of our Lord 1854, and of the
independence of the United States the 79th.

turday evening the inauguration of another of those
numerous charitable institutions which reflect so
much honour upon the British metropolis was celebrated
by a festival at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate•street,

supported by the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex,
and a campany of upwards of 200 gentlemen connected

ber of subscriptions were announced in the course of the

the Lord Mayor's list, 265/. ; Mr. Graham's list, 7891.
&c.

THE ROYAL ALBERT.
The Royal Albert, 121, screw, three-decker, Captain Sir
Thomas Pasley, Bart., had not arrive.' at Spithead at dark
last evening. On her arrival those officers will personally
inspect her, and see to the expedition of her equipment.
Artificers from Portsmouth dockyard are ready to go out
in steam-tugs to fit the necessaries for th ) troops, who are
to embark on the 24th. All the able seamen of the sailing
two-decker Prince Regent, upwards of 100 in number
(A. B.'s only), are draughted for the Royal Albert, to
make up her crew to a good and safe-working complement.
She will not carry out her full number of 1,000 men in ad-
dition to the troops and their baggage, another crew being
ready for her on her arrival in the Cimea. The "A.B.'s"
of the Prince Regent were selected because the Neptune
has provided already from her crew 100 men to fill higher
ratings in the screw ships Hannibal and Curacoa, and for
general service.

The Royal Albert was telegraphed as being off Brighton
yesterday afternoon.
The Neptune, 120, Captain Hutton, and the Monarch,
84, Captain Erskine, are both effecting the repair of their
defects at Spithead. The Neptune is provisioned and
stored for Channel service, and will be quite ready for sea
on the return of her crew from leave of absence.
Her Majesty's steamer Powerful, 84, is obtaining consi-
derable numbers of able seamen for the Queen's service.
Draughts of men are forwarded daily from Greenock to
the Clyde, where the Powerful is at moorings.
The Dauntless, 33, screw, Captain Ryder, at Spithead,
is expected to be ready for the reception of troops this day.
Admiral Berkeley and Sir B. Walker personally have been
seeing to her equipment. She carries out a most impor-
tant contingent to the army at Sebastopol—viz., 280
Royal Artillerymen. The greater portion of the crew of
the steam-frigate Gorgon, Commander Cracoft (refitting at
Portsmouth), and 13 newly-trained seamen from the in-
struction-ship Illustrious, Captain Harris, in Portsmouth
harbour, are to complete the crew of the Dauntless for
this service.

The Hecla, 6, paddle-sloop, Commander Hawker, has
completed the repair of her defects at Portsmouth and left
