THE COMBINED FLEETS OF ENGLAND
AND FRANCE.

Letters from Malta reach down to the 22d of June,
and announce the arrival of the combined fleets at
Besika Bay. That of England, under Admiral Dundas,
which left Malta at eight a.m. on the Bth of June, was
carried by a fine westerly breeze until within 90 miles of
Cape Matapan by noon on the 10th, when the services of
the steamers were availed of, and through this powerful
auxiliaryreached the anchorage at Besika at 8 a.m. on the
13th, exactly five days from Malta, and where the French
fleet, under the command of Vice-Admiral la Susse,
joined it on the morning of the 15th ult. ; and at
the same time the Caradoc steam-packet arrived with
dispatches from the British Minister at Constantinople,
whence she took her departure on the morning of the
14th, and would, it was supposed, proceed with the re-
turn dispatches for England, to either Trieste or Mar-
seilles direct. The Tiger had been dispatched to the
Dardanelles, whence she returned on the afternoon of
the 13th with the British consul.

On the morning of the 15th of June the ships of both
fleets were riding at single anchor, and officers going on
shore on leave had strict injunctions not to lose sight of
their respective ships, so that they could get under weigh
at a quarter of an hour's notice. It was generally ru-
moured that the Caradoc had brought the proper fir-
mans for the entry, in case of need, of the passage of the
Dardanelles—a measure which there was every proba-
bility would be carried out.
The following is a correct list of the combined fleets
at Besika Bay :

ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
enerative System, or Sexual Hypochondrlasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD

"Pr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
t me, 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
tower to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851.
"We promised in a former number that we should recur to this
war:c, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of ` Quiet Symathisers,'
and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from th com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hindreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money.-- This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrbcea, and to place the treat-
mnnt upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE OF THE URETIIRA, on Prinet•
pies at once Simple, Safe, and Efficient, in even its most Inveterate
and apparently Intractable Forms.

BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

"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. Symc adduced, and on which he had operated.
such are cases ix., xi., xii., and xvill. No. lx. had res•eted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
removed in 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 Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."

CORN EXCHANGE.

To-day's ms-icet was very scantily supplied with English
wheat, the demand for which was firm, and in some in-
stancei prices wore a shale higher than on Monday.
Foreign wheats, the show of which was limit?d, were
mostly held for more money, but the business doing in
thorn was by no means extensive. Floating cargoes were 7 s
per quarter higher.
Barley moved off ma lily, and grinding samples sold at
extreme rates. In the value of malt, no change took
place.
There was an improved demand for oats, the prices of
which advanced Gel per quarter.
Beans, peas, and flour were quite as dear as on Monday.

A letter from Carlsruhe of the Ist, in the Ger-

munication in case of non-compliance."

the Grand Duchess and the Prince Alexander of
Hesse, all arrived at Hamburg on the 30th ult.
The day after the King of Prussia, Accompanied by
the Queen and the Archduchess Sophia, arrived in
the city to pay them a visit. It was the first time
his
Majesty has been in Hamburg since his acces-
sion to the throne, and great curiosity was mam-
fested to see him--a large crowd assembling at the
railway station to witness his arrival. Although
travelling. incognito under the name of Count de
Zoll em, his Majesty was waited on by the autho-
rities of the city and the diplomatic body. Ex-
tensive measures were taken to preserve order,
and a number of police
officers of a superior class
accompanied the King from Berlin.
The King of Prussia has just conferred the order

COLD WATER STEAM-ENGlNE.—Yesterday afternoon
we visited the machine shop of Messrs. Burge
.and John-
ston, to witness the performance of a new engine, styl.ei
as above, and recently invented by Mr. Edward D.
Tlp-
pett. The steam is produced without boilei3, by simply
injecting cold water into generators. The amount of
steam required to force out or return the piston rod )5
made by the introduction to the influence of the fire at
each moment of precisely the quantity of water n..Aled,
tins doing away with the necessity of boilers. It is
e aimed that there is no possibility of an explosion, that
g :eater power is obtained, and less room occupied for tie
nacessary machinery. The water falls into the enginc,
being first raised by a force-pump into a reservoir situa■
ted above the engine, and thence inducted down as v an.
ted. The engine is a singularly constructed piece of
mechanism, both in appearance and mode of operating.

JAMAICA.
Sir J. PAKINGTON begged to put a question' to the
noble lord the member for London with regard to the
of Jamaica. He had put a question to the no" le lord
on the subject a little time ago, and the noble lord's t answer
was, that the noble duke, the Secretary for the C o lonics,
would shortly make a statement in another place, t and he
understood the noble lord that he also would make t r state-
ment in that house. He (Sir J. Pakington) also af zed the
noble lord if he had any objection to lay any papers ; relat-
ing to the circumstances in which Jamaica was placed on
the table, to which the noble lord replied that ho would
not undertake to do so until after the statement ri &erred
to had been made. That statement had now hew t made
by the noble duke in another place, and ho should I be glad
to be informed when the noble lord proposed to : make a
communication on the subject to this house, and v,t hen he
would lay the papers on the table. He should also. like to
know whether those papers would contain a full stag Lenient
of the present financial affairs of Jamaica.
Lord J. RUSSELL had delayed making any stfs tement
solely on account of the pressure of public business, but he
would do so on an early day on the Government a uoving
the house to go into committee of supply. The papers
should be laid before the house, and he thought Ms at they
contained sufficient information of the state of the f inances
of Jamaica,
