What with tiie -itlcniont of the l'.:r4l,ton accounts
and the absence of several book-makers, whom the at-
tractions at Wolverhampton had drawn away, scarcely
any bets worth quoting came under notice.
EBOR HANDICAP.—The transactions on this event
were limited to small sums. It is, however, likely to
be a good betting race.
ST. LEGER.—The favourite continued firm, notwith-
standing the advance of Sittingbourne to 4 to 1, taken
to 1001. ; the taker offering to go on at a fractional in-
crease of the odds. 4,500 to 300 was taken about Lord
Exeter's "lot."

DERBY.—Offers to take 20 to 1 about King Tom.
25 to 1 taken to a little money about Ruby, and 1,000
to 30 about Dervish. Sir James Graham, a new out-
sider, was introduced at 100 to 1, taken at 501.

BATH STEEPLE-CHASE.—RINGLEADER V. FORESTLAD.
—Although the principal book-makers who had bets on
this event have settled, despite the objections which
were raised against the stewards' decision, two or three
parties persist in holding back, on the plea that they are
not aware that law proceedings have been abandoned.
Were they inclined, however, to arrive at the truth, the
way is easy enough. It would be only to their credit
were they to follow the example alluded to above.
BRIGHTON RACES.— PAVILION PLATE OF 1001.—In
answer to numerous inquiries, we have to state, on the
authority of Admiral Rous, who was one of the stewards,
that a plate race is not considered a p.p. race ; and that
as a 501. plate was substituted for the 1001. plate, ori-
ginally advertised to be run for, all bets on the latter
become void.
London, England, 1853-08-09

Mr. NEWDEGATE said he intended merely to explain.
On the occasion referred to by the hon. gentleman (Mr.
Lucas), he (Mr. Newdegate) merely quoted the speech of
Dr. M'llale at a dinner in Ireland, as also the speech of the
hon. member for Mayo.
Mr. BOUVERIE thought no gentleman present believed
that if the debate were taken on Wednesday it could be
terminated on that day. What was the use, then, in en-
tering upon it?
Mr. MAGUIRE was most anxious for the full discussion
of this subject, even on the 10th of August, as an oppor-
tunity would be afforded of dealing with the statements of
those gentlemen who had allowed themselves to be so much
led away by their imagination.
The house then divided—
For the original motion' lO5
Against
Majority for
TURKEY AND RUSSIA
On the motion that the house resolve itself into commit
tee of supply,
Mr. DISRAELI rose and said,—l take this opportu-
nity of making inquiry with respect to a question which
has been adverted to already in the early part of this even-
ing, namely, to an account that has been received of the
acceptance by the Emperor of Russia of certain propo-
sitions presented to him from what I may call a congress
of the great powers sitting at Vienna. The noble lord (J.
Russell) holds out no prospect that these papers will be
laid on the table, or that opportunity will .be afforded for
discussing this important subject—(hear, hear)—and con-
sidering the month, and the date of the month, I am not
surprised that the noble lord should have indulged in these
observations. I wish to know, considering this particular
circumstance, whether the noble lord has any objection to
state the nature of the propositions which have been ac-
cepted by the Emperor of Russia ? (Hear, hear.)
Lord J. RUSSELL—I cannot at present state what
propositions have been made to the Emperor of Russia.
Before the prorogation of Parliament, however, I will
giv,, all the information I possess consistent with my duty.
I will not now anticipate that information ; but state at
that time as much as is in my power and consistent with
the welfare of the public service. (Hear, hear.)
The subject then dropped.
PUBLIC BUSINESS.

Lord J. RUSSELL—I wish to state it is not our inten-
tion to proceed with the Metropolitan Sewers Bill this
evening. We will take it to-morrow evening. The Re-
gistration of Assurances Bill has been before a committee,
and it has been recommended by them that a commission
should be appointed on the subject. We therefore con-
sider that this bill should not be further proceeded with
at present.

LIBERATED AFRICANS.-A. bill just presented to the
House of Lords by the Dike of Newcastle provides that
liberated Africans in Sierra Leone are to be deemed for
all purposes in Africa nitural born subjects, and they
are also to be British subjects for the purposes of treaties
with native chiefs. The bill thus describes who are to
be deemed liberated Africans :—" For the purposes of
this act the words liberated Africans' shall mean and
include all persons dealt with or detained as slaves who
heretofore have been or hereafter may be seized or taken
under any of the acts for the abolition or suppression of
the slave trade, by her 11Ljesty's ships of war or other-
wise, and liberated or deli,ered to the officers appointed

By SAMUEL LAWEBT, M.D.
37, BEDFORD-SQTJARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the Uriversity of Edin-
burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiate of 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 produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment
adopted is founded on experience gsin-d in the most celebrated
schools of medicine both in this corntry and in continental Europe.
The results of the knowledge thae acciOred are here condenacd under
thq personal supers ision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few
legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and nit-
divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short,
every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental
to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and
ultimate cure are described in detail. The professionri reputation
of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most Oistingrisbed medical
inviolable secrecy
and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient

BELGIUM.

In the Chamber cf Representatives of Belgium,
in its sitting of the 4th, the Minister of Foreign
Affairs presented a bill, calling for a credit of
60,000 f., to be applied to the expenses of a Minis-
ter and a Councillor of Legation to the Russian
Government, " with which," said the honour-
able Minister, " the Belgian Government is on
the point of establishing intimate and constant
relations."

BOROUGH HOP.
Our market is scantily supplied with hops of last year's
growth. All kinds are in good request, at our quotations.
In old parcels there is rather more doing. Mid and East

WOOL.
English wools continue very firm, and prices are well
supported. As the public sales will commence on Thurs-
day next, scarcely any business is doing, either in foreign
or colonial qualities. Last week's import's were 108 bales
from Rotterdam, 12 ditto from Calais, 176 from Antwerp,
and 205 from Hamburgh.

AUSTRIA.

The Lloyd attempts to explain away the common
impression that the good understanding between
France and the Northern Powers has been disturbed
by recent events. " There is no real enmity to-
wards the Emperor in the Conservative camp, al-
though there is much stupid railing, much unneces-
sary coarseness. In those circles in which the fate
of millions is decided, we find none of that impru-
dence, none of that sensitiveness, none of that pride
which could endanger the peace of Europe." The
fact is, that this Government is extremely sorry
that it has not been able to oblige both parties.
It had to choose between France and Russia, and
it naturally decided in favour of the latter. Al-
though the French Emperor entitles himself a
parvenu, he is little inclined to be treated like
one, and he deeply resents being treated
as an intruder ;by the very Powers whose game
he has so successfully played for the last two
years. It is to be presumed that the friendly rela-
aons which appear to exist between the French
imperor and the British Ambassador are particu-
ily annoying to M. de Hubner, as the telegraphic
doopatohoa from Paris so frequently mention Lord
Cowley's name in connexion with that of the Empe-
ror. People here are also jealous of Prussia, because
Count Hatzfeld appears to be better received. by
Napoleon than the Austrian Minister.
The Oest. Corsespond,ez says that measures will
be taken to prevent the return of those emigrants
to Austria " who bring back nothing more valu-
able than the political opinions they have picked up
among the German fugitives in North America."
The whole of the garrison of Vienna and its
environs-24 or 25 battalions, and many squadrons
of cavalry—has received orders to march to the
Bosnian frontier, in which neighbourhood and in
Austrian Albania, an army of 70,000 men is to
be concentrated. Between 120 and 130 guns
will also be forwarded from Vienna. Ban Jel-
lachich has been appointed Commander-in-Chief
of this mighty army. Troops from Bohemia and
Upper Austria will supply the place of the Vienna
garrison, which was to commence its march on the
4th or sth. It is whispered that the Russian
infantry corps in Bessarabia and the Crimea
have received orders to occupy the Danubian
principalities. Some diplomatists are of opinion
that it was by M. de Lavalette's counsel
that the Porte undertook the campaign against
Montenegro. Should this be the case, what will
his Imperial master say to the occupation of a
great part of European Turkey by the two Northern
Powers ?

The imports of foreign stock into London, last week,
were seasonably good—the total supply amounting to 3,770
head. During the same period in 1852 they amounted to
1,968 ; in 1851, 3,309 ; in 1850, 971; in 1849, 1,404 ; and
in 1848, 260 head. The general quality of the stock lately
received has been good.

To-day's market was very moderately supplied with
foreign stock, both as to number and quality. The whole
changed hands, at full prices.
Although the arrivals of beasts fresh up from our grazing
districts exhibited a falling off, compared with Monday
last, the show of that description of stock was good, whilst
its general quality was tolerably prime. The attendance of
both town and country buyers being extensive, the beef
trade ruled steady, at fully last week's prices. The primest
lots sold readily at 4s per 8 lbs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 2,000 lots, shorthorns, &c. . from other parts of
England, 400, of various breeds; and Scotland, chiefly
per railway, 700 horned and polled lots.
An unusually small supply of sheep was brought forward.

SURREY SESSIONS.-(THIS DA Y.)

The adjourned Quarter Sessions for the county of
Surr,ey commenced this morning at the Sessions-louse,
Newington-causeway, before Thomas Puckle, Esq., and
a full bench of magistrates. The calendar contained the
names of &I prisoners for trial—eighty for felonies, and
four for misdemeanours. There are a great number very
trivial cases in the calendar, but some others will occupy
the attention of the Court for some time, being rather
heinous offences. Among the prisoners are two men
named James Mitchell and John Smith, charged with
breaking into the dwelling-house of Thomas Prince,
jeweller, in the Walworth-road, and stealing jewellery
worth nearly 1,0001. There are four other cases of bur-
glary, and several for highway robbery, and others for
robbery from the person. The grand jury having been
sworn, and addressed by the Chairman as to the nature
of their duties, they were dismissed to their room.

BO W-STREET-( THIS DAY.)

ASSAULT ON A CONSTABLE.--Edu;ard Ryan, a ham ker
of books, was brought before Mr. Hall, charged with
assaulting police-constable, 6S F, when in the execution
of his duty. The constable was on duty in Ilolywell
street, about nine o'clock on Saturday night, when he
saw the prisoner jumping about the front of Mr. Wood's
shop, No. 33, in that street, and calling out as loud as
he could, " Wood, you are a b- rogue and thief."
Prisoner was desired to go away ; but instead of doing
so, he grossly abused the officer, and as a wind up to hip
conduct he knocked the constable down. Two other
officers came to his aid, and one of whom shared the same
fate. Prisoner was eventually secured, and lodged in
the station.

The prisoner was fined 505., or a month's imprisonment •

A DRUNKEN CLERK.—George Oylett, a merchant's
clerk, was charged with being drunk and disorderly in
Clare-street.

Police-constable 1 F, said on Saturday night about
ten o'clock, he was in Clare-street, opposite a shop kept
by a man named Karr. The latter was in the shop ex-
ceedingly drunk, dancing about, and scattering flour
over his head, or, which was di6played a woman's bonnet.
A. crowd of about 200 persons had assembled to watch
the man's antics, and while ho (witness) was doing his
best to disperse the mob, the defendant came up in a
drunken state, and called him a d—d fool. Witness
told him to be off, and on his still persisting in inter-
fering with him, lie took him into custody.
The defendant, who said he was very drunk at the
time, was fined 55., which he paid.
London, England, 1853-02-07

HA YMARKET.

A new farce, under the title of To Paris and Back for
Five Pounds, was produced at this theatre on Saturday
evening. It opened extremely well, and gave fair pro-
mise of success, but towards the conclusion became
rather tame, owing to the introduction of extraneous
matter which unnecessarily delayed the denouement, and
lessened its effect when it did arrive. Charles Markham
(Mr. Howe), is a gay Lothario, who, having been a
party in a duel, seeks to elude the authorities by a flight
to Tunbridge, but, on reaching the town, discovers that
the officers are on his track, and with the view of putting
them off the scent hits upon an expedient. He writes
a few straggling lines, saying that before they will be
seen by human eye, he will be at the bottom of the
neighbouring river, and encloses the paper in his pocket-
book, which he leaves in the railway waiting-room. An
acute countryman, Samuel Snozzle (Mr. Buckstone),
arrives at the station to meet his uncle and female cousin,
whom he intends to accompany to Paris and hack "for
five pounds." Snozzle is about to be married to his fair
relation, though he has never seen her nor his uncle.
He misses the train, and the interval before the next is
due, he determines to employ in insinuating himself into
the acquaintance of a fascinating lady in the town. Un-
fortunately his Anglo-Saxon cognomen of Snozzle is a
great obstacle in the way, for it not only draws forth the
ridicule of the fairer sex, but excites the smirks and even
boisterous laualter of telegraph clerks, railway-guards,
porters, and waiters. In this predicament he finds the
aforesaid pocket-book, and without more ado assumes
the name of Charles Markham, thinking that the real in-
dividual will never appear to claim it. The crowning
point of the whole affair is, of course, the arrest of
Snozzle, and the marriage of Markham, who passes as a
Snozzle, to Fanny Spriggins, the cousin, she turning
out to be the very lady for polking with whom he was
challenged to fight the duel. These materials, it must
be admitted, are extremely good, but they might have
been worked up into a much more attractive form. The
piece, however, affords some scope for the drolleries of
Buckstone, and for some smart acting by Mr. Howe,
and as far as the audience were concerned. may be said
to have been successful, as the curtain fell amidst un-
mistakeable marks of approbation.

EMIGRATION.

The difference of opinion formerly existing in reference to Emigra-
tion is now completes, removed. No one doubts the expediency and
advantages of Emigration, but the expense is the principal coliside-
ration with everyone contemplating a change of country and pursuits.
It is scarcely credible how small an amount ss ill procure an Outfit at
E. MOSES and SONS; it is also impossible for any class of Emi-
grants to obtain the articles they will require, so good or so cheap as
they are offered at the Outfitting Establishment of E. MOSES and
SON. The attention which every Emigrant requires is provided for
by a separate department being kept for outfitting. The Goods and
Clotting specially required by Emigrants are offered at wholesale
prices, and are acknowledged by thousands of Emigrants to be every-
way superior to any which can be had elsewhere. Ship-sailing
information and full Lists of Outfits for Ladies and Gentlemen may
be had on applicatiea, or i ost-free to any part of the Kingdom.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against Imposition, having learned that the untradestnan-like
falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have

To-day's market was very moderately supplied with
foreign stock, both as to number and quality. The whole
changed hands, at full prices.
Although the arrivals of beasts fresh up from our grazing
districts exhibited a falling off, compared with Monday
last, the show of that description of stock was good, whilst
its general quality was tolerably prime. The attendance of
both town and country buyers being extensive the beef
trade ruled steady, at fully last week's prices. The primast
lots sold readily at 4s per 8 lbs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we
received 2,000 lots, shorthorns, ; from other parts of
England, 400, of various breeds; and from Scotland, chiefly
per railway, 700 horned and polled lots.
An unusually small supply of sheep was brought forward.
As might, therefore, be expected, the mutton trade was
somewhat active, at a further advance in the currencies of
2d per S lbs. The best old Downs sold freely at 5s 2d per
8 lbs. There were several pens of shorn sheep in the mar-
ket, which realised is per 8 lbs. beneath those in the wool.
Calves—the supply of which was limited—sold steadily

ITALY.

- - - -
General de la Marmora, the Piedmontese Minis-
ter of War and and the Marine, is actively engaged
in placing the army and navy in an effective condi-
tion, in anticipation of whatever may happen.
Letters from Naples states the Neapolitan Go-
vernment is also making active preparations against
war ; and it is known that Austria is making a
large increase of its forces on the frontiers of Pied-
mont and Switzerland.
Letters from the Romagna state that a battalion
of Austrian troops had been sent by forced marches
to Rimini, where there were some disturbances.
Thet_ troops in question took military possession of
he town, notwithstanding the protestations of the
Pontifical governor.

BERLIN FRB PRUSSIA.
, . —The Second Chamber re-
sumed the debate on the bill for revoking the
communal law of 1850, the day before yesterday,
when, after a discussion of unusual warmth on the
part of two or three members, the Government
project was carried by 184 to 152, showing a large
increase since the last sitting of the Government
majority, and thereby showing that this majority of
42 was not dependent upon the capricious vote of
the twelve Polish deputies. Tne old law having
been this annulled, the newregulations will undergo
a strict and long scrutiny, and will probably occupy

a month ere they be finally voted. At the com-
mencement of Thursday's sitting, M. Aldenhoven,
who had distinctly accused the Minister of the Ir.-
terior of having made wilful mis-statements, written
in a report to the King, rose to explain, and assured

The Minister of Public Works, a practical man,
though in some things somewhat impracticable, has
brought forward three or four new Government
projects of law, of which one is a bill for the better
regulation of emigration, and more strict control
over emigration companies, so as to protect emi-
grants from their constantly occurring deceptions.
A second is for the purpose of amending the law as
regards factory children, and of changing the age
of admission into factories from nine to twelve

years.
On Friday the Second Chamber proceeded with
the debate on the bill of which the first clause was
adopted on the previous evening, and terminated
by adopting the whole project, with an amendment
to the effect that there was nothing in the adoption
contrary to the Constitution. The result of this
amendment will be that two or three articles of the
Constitution must be amended, in order to accom-
modate the new law to the Constitution.
