The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
every extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tions, which far some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the ordinary practitioner. To cuter into the
details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific 'consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR. or a CLERGYMAN.
Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till lhree, and
Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases,
—as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge-
neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the
communication must be accompanied by the "usual Consulta-
tion Fee of U.," without which no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and i 11 oases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied on.

TREATY OF•NAVIGATION BE-
TWEEN ENGLAND AND THE HA.NSEATIC
TOWNS.
A letter from Brunswick of the sth inst., in the Augs-
burgh Gazette, has the following :
" The fact that the Navigation Treaty with the Han-
seatic Towns is not ratified by England, because Minis-
ters, in the present position of affairs, cannot take upon
themselves to effect so great a change in the Navigation
Act, speaks clearly enough for itself, and has excited
with us in Brunswick an almost still greater interest than
even in Hamburgh and Bremen. The general-demon-
stration of joy et the separation of Brunswick evidently
arose from the hope that the League, which is blessed
by millions, but which as yet has been deprived of the best
(1. e. the months of the rivers, the coasts, and the great
seas), would now receive the reward of its noble efforts.
The London Treaty, however, appeared, if not to nullify,
at least to defer to an uncertain period this great end and
aim. The general excitement that has been awakened is
an excellent symptom in many respects—in the first
place, as serving as a conductor to carry off vague and
unmeaning political murmurs, and to fix men's minds
more advantageously upon long-neglected material in-
terests again, as the first important trait of a united
spirit in Germany, from the evident interest taken by
the South in the North, so long, far too long, estranged
from it ; and, again, as an undeniable proof that the
great Commercial and Custom-house League has already
grown up into a matter of general feeling throughout the
country."

MRS. DAMER'S DIARY OF HER TOUR IN
GREECE, TURKEY, EGYPT, AND THE HOLY LAND.—
Mrs Dawson Darner has not only the lively spirit of ad-
venture, but the lively habit of telling plainly and un-
reservedly what adventure throws in her way. A. tourist
cannot have two better qualities, and with their help
Mrs. Darner has written a most agreeable book, sensible,
observant, and full of interesting information. After
many just remarks on the present state of Greece, Mrs.
Darner passes into Turkey. This part of her work has
superior claims to praise, and includes some very valu-
able, as well as graphical, notices of the present state of
the Holy Land, and of the condition of the Jews, in
relation to the late mission of Sir Moses Montefiore.—
Examiner.

NATURE THE DOCTOR..--.About four months
ago, a young man named Samuel Parratt, now residing;
at Bradford-moor but lately of Leeds, fell and injured
himself. He was taken to the Leeds Infirmary, and
thence discharged as incurable. He came home to Brad-
ford-moor, and was seized with fits, which entirely de-
prived him of the use of his lower extremities. He was
under the care of a surgeon for near three months, and
was treated as for a spinal complaint, but without any re-
sult. A week or two back he was seized with a fit
stronger than usual, and to the astonishment of his
friends, when he recovered from it lie had acquired the
use of his limbs, which he has ever since retained, and he
is now able to walk as well as ever. We understand the
physicians are unable to account for the case.—Bradford
Observer.

SPAIN.—The Madrid Gazelle contains two
decrees of the Regent, the one refusing to prolong leave
of absence to officers unless in cases of severe illness ;
and the other appointing a commission to make a report
to revise the regulations of the army. The troops in
Catalonia were to be reduced by 5,000 men, and letters
from St. Sebastian of the 15th announce the disband-
ment of the 4th Corps d'Armee. The new Captain-
General Alcala had divided the troops in the Basque
Provinces as follows :—ln Alava two battalions of the Ist
Light Infantry, and four squadrons of cavalry. In
Guipuscoa, the first brigade, composed of three batta-
lions of the Bourbon Regiment, and two companies of
artillery.

AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATH.—On Monday
morning, about three o'clock, Mary, the wife of Mr.
Henry Groome, a compositor on this paper, living at
Galleywood Common, was discovered by him lyinc, on
the floor, by his bedside, a corpse. Deceased re-
tired to rest with her husband about eleven o'clock
the previous night in apparently good health, and at
the time above-mentioned Mr. G. awaking, missed her
from his side. He immediately got up in the bed for the
purpose of seeking her, when he fonnd her as above de-
scribed. Mr. King, surgeon, of this town, was speedily
in attendance, but from appearances it is supposed she
must have been dead some time.—Essex _Herald.

THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.—The
grass crop is good, although not so heavy as had been
anticipated, owing to a lack of rain ; this deficiency is,
however, counterbalanced by having it carried in good
condition, without inconvenience, and new ricks are al-
ready numberless. Of grain crops, whether on light 'or
heavy soils, we have to report most favourably, and
nothing is now wanting but one or two days' rain, which
is also the case with the beans. Peas will everywhere be
a good crop ; and clover is in most parts excessively pro-
ductive. We heard but very little complaint of blight
on the fruit, which has been stated to be so general at
this period. As regards hops, we have personally in-
spected a great number of plantations, and can report
that we have seldom seen the plant more vigorous,
healthy, or freer from fly. The weather has been all that
could be desired by its cultivators, with the exception of
a few cold and rather frosty nights, occurring at intervals
during the last fortnight. It is, however, our opinion
that the return from this collection will, even in the event
of an excellent crop, be much loss in quantity than in
in..r,;;q. seasons of similar proafietiVenes, as, (win, to
the failure of last year, many grounds have beenlaid
down and appropriated to the growth of other and more
certain crops.— Worcester Journal.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.
CHRONICLE.—The party malignity and falsehoods of the
Tories during the last few weeks have been unexampled. On
Alonda we announced the appointment of Sii John Campbell
to the Irish Seals, and the fact that such high judicial office
had ". been conferred and accepted on condition that the usual
pennon is not to attach to It on his resignation or removal."
Notwithstanding the truth and notoriety of the renunciation of
the statutory pension, the Standard of the same evening de-
nounces the appointment as a rank job to pension a new Lord
Chancellor of Ireland ; and the Times of yesterday repeats
the calumny—that " the Whigs have promoted Sir John
Campbell to a high legal office, which they know he must
vacate at their dismissal, with a retiring pension of 4,0001.
a year." We are at a loss tb imagine the motive of
such scandalous and short-lived misrepresentations. They
are probably designed to act on the coming elections,
and to increase the irritation of the Irish bar-
risters, who, in the Four Courts, view the elevation of an
Englishman or a Scotchman to the Irish bench with jealousy.
We can excuse the Dublin barristers for feeling a little tem-
porary annoyance, but the falshoods of the English Tory
press are disgusting. Was the Peel preferment of Sir Edward
Sugden matte; of such grievance to the Irish bar ; or, his
briefly earned pension for four months' service such a scandal or
public burden in the sight of the Standard and the Times?
If Sir Edward Sugden should shortly replace Sir John Camp-
bell, would a " round robin" be signed. by the Conservative
Irish lawyers against the Tory English Chancellor ? We sus-
pect not ; but that they would fawn, as before, on the English
ermine. All this misrepresentation is, however, a compli-
ment to Sir John Campbell. The Tory press cannot
deny his high qualifications for the judicial office ; indeed, the
Standard admits, " though we do not admire his politics, we
know him to be immeasurably a better man, in every quality,
than Lord Plunket." This is high and disinterested pane-
gyric. We do admire his politics, and they ought especially to
find favour in the sight of the Irish Liberals. Sir John Camp-
bell entered public life, and allied himself with the Whig
party, when 'I oryism was in the ascendant, and the prospects
of promotion for a Liberal English ,barrister were faint in the
extreme. He was an early and consistent advocate of Ca-
tholic Emancipation. He was a stanch supporter, out of office,
of the Reform Bills in 1831-2, and much in the confidence
of the Government in the preparation of those great
national measures. He was a zealous advocate of
the Scotch Burgh and the English Corporation Bills, particu-
larly of the latter municipal reforms ; and he was equally
earnest in his aid of the Irish Corporation Bill till it was
finally carried last year. His argument on the Privilege
Question was one of the most masterly constitutional discussions
ever delivered in a court of justice. In 1840, and in the past.
Session, he particularly distinguished himself by speeches
against Lord Stanley's Registration Bills. His speech in July
last On that nefarious measure, and his protest against the
finality of the decision of the Judges, was incomparably the
best answer which was given to Lord Stanley. We should
hope that these political virtues will not be lost on the
Liberals of the Irish Bar, however they may excite the
spleen of the Tory lawyers of Dublin. In his profes-
sional character, however, Sir John Campliell may
justly claim the respect and confidence of the entire bar of
Ireland. His professional pre-eminence is undisputed ; and
he has maintained his superiority as an ads ocate and lawyer,
in Westminster Hall, for a longer period than almost any
predecessor. He owes nothing to family or party. By his
own talents and industry he has succeeded in reaching the
heights of his arduous profession. In the prime of life he sur-
renders the largest income received at the bar for half the
amount in the salary of a Judge; and without a retiring pen-
sion. It is not now alleged against Lord Loughborough or
Lord Eldon that they were not great Equity Judges because
they were originally common lawyers. Do the English
Tories admit that Lord Lyndhurst was an indifferent
Chancery Judge because he came from the Common
Pleas ? or do they object to Sir William Follett as a probable
future Lord Chancellor of England, because he practises in the
Queen's Bench ? But Sir John Campbell carries to the Irish
Seals peculiar qualifications for the equity bench. He has
had an extensive practice in the llouse of Lords and Privy
Council, in cases involving the most important and complicated
equity questions. Further, he has specially pleaded in some
of the most important suits in the Court of Chancery ; and he
was the Chief Commissioner in the real property commission of
1832-3, whence emanated some of our most valuable legal re-
forms. For the last six years he has bad to advise on all the
Crown charity suits, involving almost every possible question in
equity. If Sir John Campbell was saddled upon Ireland
as a superannuated lawyer (as several English, Irish,
and Scotch judges are now panting for the advent of Toryism
to retire on pensions), the Irish bar might be entitled to pro-
test. But he is preferred to the Irish Seals in the full enjoy-
ment of his reputation and faculties—surrendering his income
at the bar for the comparatively small salary of a judge—and
willing to retire from office on the fruits of his own honour-
able
industry, without any pension-charge to the public. We
repeat our hope and belief that such a man will meet with the
respect an.: s„, tof his profession in Ireland. As a Judge
he will conciliate even those who are politically opposed to
him. The Irish suitors will not be slow to appreciate his
merits, which will obtain for him the regard of the nation long
after the unworthy attempts to represent his promotion to the
Irish seals, as a "job," and to excite a national prejudice
against him, will be forgotten, or only remembered to the
shame of the parties who could descend to such unworthy acts
of hostility. _

..... j.
HERAl.D.—Yesterday the prorogation of Parliament,
with a view to its immediate dissolution," took place. Her
Majesty givlioorod a speech on the occasion, as to which we
must claim the full liberty allowed by the Constitution and
the custom of Parliament to its unres,:rved discussion. I.Ve
are permitted, on these authorities, to assume that the speech
is, nominally only, the Speech of her Majesty ; and that it is,
in fact, one concocted by her Majesty's Ministers, and to be
regarded, in strictness of speaking, and in all reasonable con••
struction, as that of the existing Cabinet. To parody a noble
line of Byrou's' it is
" Linked with one merit and a thousand faults."

It is mercifully and marvellously short. That isly excel-
lence. It is ungracious to a degree; flippant, supercilious, and
conveniently forgetful of, at least, some merits which the ex-
piring Parliament might have pleaded, one should have thought
at Wirdsor. It has a great many indications of the hand of
Lord John Russell about it; and not the least characteristic, of
these is, that fatality which waits on all his efforts at historical
association, whether he makes indifferent speeches on his ewn
account, or writes bad books for his booksellers, to the &sp.-
ragement of their accounts. A very stilted effort pervaees
this production at Elizabethan terseness. It has as little of
that as can be imagined, but much of her brusquerie. The
misfortune of the thing is, that the points of similitude which
are necessary to recal the notions of Tudor majesty, ruffled
by a stubborn Parliament, are wanting and cannot be supplied.
First, the times are not alike. Secondly, the Ministers are
not alike. Thirdly, there are other essential dissimilarities that
we have not time to mention.

POST.—The Melbourne Ministry has contrived to signalise
its latest moments of existence by the performance of two feats,
which, had they been described to us beforehand, we should
have pronounced, without hesitation; to be beyond all human
power. They have shown themselves to be more rapacious
and sordid, more ravenous of patronage and more indifferent to
principle, more reckless how deeply they wound the natural
and honourable feelings of large and valuable classes of their
fellow-subjects, and more hostile to the due administration of
the law. and to the sound principles of the Constitution, than
they had proved themselves by any former instances of miscon-
duct. The achievement, it will at once be said, approaches to
the character of a miracle. But Ministers have accomplished
it, nevertheless. This is the first of the great feats to
which we allude. And the second is scarcely less amazing.
Ministers have actually found out the means of making Lord
Plunket, the late Lord Chancellor of Ireland, the father of all '
the Hannibals, descend from the bench, and take, for the rest
of his days, four thousand a year instead of eight ; and this,
though much, is not the whole, nor even the greatest part, of
their achievement—they have made him descend from the
bench amidst the acclamations of the Irish people, and all the
evidences of restored popularity. We refer to the letter of
our Dublin correspondent for a representation of the scene in
the Irish Court of Chancery when Lord Plunket took his final
leave of the bar. The aged Judge heaped reproaches upon the
Administration for forcing him from a seat which he had no de-
sire to quit, and, in proportion as he vented reproach upon the
Administration, he became the object of increased popularity,
and they of execration and contempt—he, their late colleague,
popular for the mere merit of denouncing them as they deserved,
and they execrated and despised for the meanness, rapacity,
tyranny, ingratitude, enmity to Irish rights and feelings, of
which he justly accused them. His Lordship said that " his
retirement was not of his own seeking, and that he could not
but feel indignant at the manner in which he was compelled to
seek retirement." And again—" Ile owed it to himself—ide
owed it to the members of the bar—to state that for his retire-
ment he was not in any degree answerable. At no time,
either directly or indirectly, had lie sanctioned it." These, it
will be admitted, are extraordinary expressions—words en-
tirely without precedent in the mouth of a Lord Chancellor,
while descending from the seat of. judgment which he had oc-
cupied for twenty years; and it is one of the numerous dis-
tinctions of the Whig-Radical Government that it is their
Lord Chancellor who utters them, and utters them with the
sympathy and approbation of every hearer.
TlMES.—the time for the long-expected struggle has at
length arrived : the first Parliament of Queen Victoria has
virtually ceased to exist. Her Majesty's Smith, on pro-
roguing Parliament, requires no comment ; it is, as customary
with such documents, a suggestive recommendation, under the
cloak of truisms which no one can dispute, of the policy of
those who wrote it and who are responsible for it. The at-
tention of the country will be fixed upon a far more serious
matter—the coming general election. In a few days the
victory of constitutional principles over jobbing selfishness,
lying agitation, and plutocratical oppression of the poor,
will be complete. But, in the meantime, every nerve
mast be strained, every energy exerted, all honourable means
and appliances of success tasked to the utmost, in order
to achieve so glorious a result. We have all along foreseen
the artifices by which those who have framed the Baring
budget would attempt to misrepresent the true character of
this appeal to the country ; we foretold the reckless and pro-
fligate manner in which they would endeavour to stir up the
passions of the working classes, the dangerous and hypocritical
delusions by which they would practise upon the credulity
of the ignorant, the falsehoods which they would vouch
to be true, the impossibilities they would promise,
the base calumnies with which they would asperse
their opponents, the systematic intimidation and bribery to
which they would have recourse. The contemplated league
between grasping capitalists, the tyrants of the factory and the
workhouse, eager to ruin every other interest for the sake of
aggrandizing their own, and those aristocratical leeches who
have so long been sacking the blood of the nation in Downing..
street, Somerset-house, and Buckingham Palace, did not
escape our not*. From the moment when the Anti-Corn-law
bubble was first announced, visions ofplacards coupling the name
of Lord John Russell with the heartless lie of " full em-
ployment and cheap bread," (benefits which no legislative
measure can ever secure to the people,) began to float before
our eyes; nor were we without a presentiment of loaves a yard
long and a foot high to be contrasted, as types of the Ministe-
rial policy, with penny rolls almost concealed from sight
b, labels identifying them with the name of Sir Robert
Peel. Our anticipations, of course, did not reach to every
particular ; we could not, for instance, have prophecied
that a Cabinet Minister who has always appeared
to take a peculiar pleasure in heaping insults upon
the citizens of London would, in return for those
courtesies, aspire to the honour of representing that city in
Parliament, much less that any supporter of Lord J. Russell
against Messrs. Lyall, Masterrnan, Pirie, and Attwood, would
have the hardihood to placard London with thefollotving words :
—" Who imprisoned the Sheriffs?— Why, Sir Pobeit Peel !"
We knew, however, that desperate men would take desperate
courses, and that a desperate cause must be supported by
desperate expedients. And as we expected, so the event has
turned out. . . •

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF TIIIS DAY.

CHRONICLE.-We only express the opinions entertained
very generally by the friends of free trade when we say that,
instead of merely reducing the duty on foreign timber from
21. 15s. to 2/. 10s. per load, and increasing it from 10s. to 20s.
on Canada timber, the better and sounder policy would be to
leave the duty as it now stands on the latter at 10s., and to re-
duce the duty on foreign timber to 40s. per load. By this altera-
tion the British shipowners and the public at large would
really reap the benefit by an efficient reduction in the price
of the best timber, while the cost of the inferior article would
not be inhanced for fiscal purposes, and the Canada lumber
men would thus be deprived of every thing like a reasonable
cause of opposition to the measure. 'lhe differential duty would
still be kept at 30a., and the increase of consumption which might
be reasonably expected from the diminution in the price of Bal-
tic timber would produce as much, if not a greater improve-
ment in the revenue than is likely to ensue from the plan
originally proposed in the Ministerial budget. Mr. M'Gregor
said that by lowering the duties or equalizing them, the re-
venue derived from timber might be improved from
1,603,194/. to 2,500,0001., or 696,8061. He afterwards ex-
plained his views to be that the duty on all colonial
timber, with the exception of Chip-building timber, should
be 10s. for 50 cubic feet of measurement, including
deals and staves, adding 5 per cent. on the, deals
and staves for revenue, as being partly manufactures,
and to lower the duty on foreign timber to 1/. 10s. Not
that he considered that the best, but the best only that could
be done under the existing system. He " would prefer 7s.
6d. per lead on colonial, and 225. 6d. upon foreign timber.",
He seems to have been aware, however, that this is more than
could be expected under the existing system, and we presume
he would be content at present with 10s. on colonial, and 40s.
upon foreign timber. Under the proposed change to 20s. and
505., the Chancellor of the Exchequer calculated on an increase
of 600,000/. only, and we cannot doubt he would get
as much, if not more than that, by taking 10s. and 40s. as his
standard of alteration. Let that course be adopted, and the
British tonnage will soon be double what that tonnage is at
present. The trade of ship building will revive, and ship-car-
penters will be in full employ. If the 10s. and 40s. duties be
adopted, the Canada clique insist be effectually silenced.
POST.-Business was transacted in the course of the morn-
ing for the first transfer, which may he made, upon the pay-
ment of the ordinary ticket-fee of half-a-crown, on or about the
6th proximo ; .but no operations of this sort, though they are
strictly legitimate, are to be found quoted in the official lists.
We have a quotations of Consols for Money at 90h, which the
Chronicle, who comes to the rescue of the Committee of the
Stock Exchange, will, we suppose, consider a fair and
reasonable price, although in the course of about a fortnight
there will be a dividend of lh per cent, accruing to the buyer.
Adding this l
.per cent. to the value quoted for the same
stock at the opening, ex. dividend (89k), the seller is entitled
to 91, less the few days' interest and a fraction of allowance
(h) per cent. would be quite sufficient, especially in
the improving state of the market. The jobber has,
however, been all along quietly pocketing per cent.
till to-day,. when he would appear to have abated
his pretensions to 0. Our remarks on the system may be as-
sumed, therefore, to have been attended with some trifling
benefit to the public. If the irregular transactions during the
close of the transfer books are proceeding as the money quo-
tation for Consols would denote, but respecting which
we are, for the reasons already assigned, extremely
sceptical, the clerks of the Bank are very unfairly
treated. The preparation of the dividend warrants must
be by this time in a state of great forwardness, nor can we
at all believe that the Governor, to oblige anybody, will suffer
the accounts of individuals to be further disturbed. The Chro-
nicle goes extraordinary lengths in his support of the proceed-
ings of the Committee. He deems their explanations " fair
and natural," but leaves out of view the more vital
points connected with them, as he does all that is
essential to a just consideration of the Corn and Cur-
rency question, and many other questions, upon
which he undertakes to dilate. To say that the conduct of the
Committee is wise and proper, and that their two explanations
harmonize one with the other, in the face of proof the most po-
sitive of the contrary, is, to be sure, a cool and comfortable way
of settling things, but it is, at the same time, an example that
we are not ambitious of imitating.
TIM ES.-The premium on gold at Paris is 81i per mille,
which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10hd. per ounce
for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25. 36, and the ex-
change at Paris on London at short being 25. 37k, it follows
that goklis 0.C6 per cent. dearer in Londor. than in Paris.
By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 429 per
mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 105/2d. per
ounces for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13. 7, and the
exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13. 7i, it
follows that gold is 0.23 per cent. dearer in London than in
Hamburgh.
SUN.-The Money Market looked more buoyant to-
day, probably in anticipation of something favourable in
the Queen's Speech. There have been some good pur-
chases of stock.

The Tea auctions of 10,000 packages, brought on this
morning, have gone off indifferently, only a portion hav-
ing found buyers, and this too at a decline of lid. per
lb. on the green qualities, and ld. on the black.
The improvement in Consols to-day was from 89+ fi
to 89+ one bargain having been effetted as high as
89, though at the close of the market 89?-, buyers, was
the most current quotation. Exchequer Bills were
Worth 6s. to Bs. premium, and East India Bonds re-
mained at ls. discount to ls. premium. There was more
general business in the English Securities to-day than
for some time past. India Stock for the opening was at
2481, the Reduced Three-and-a-Half per Cents. realised
981 to 9811, and the Three per Cent. Annuities 89+ to
sn. The Long Annuities of 1860 were at 12 15-16ths
to
‘'
1 oreign Stocks were rather firmer, and also the Rail-
way Shares. Spanish Active Bonds rallied from 22 to
22* to 22+ ; Portuguese New Five per Cents. were dull
at 33 for Money, but brought 33i to 331 for Account ;
Mexican Bonds improved from 26+ to 27 and 27+ ; Co-
lombian were steady. at 21 ; Belgian Old Five per
Cents. at par ; Russian at 113; and Dutch Two-and-a-
Half per Cents. at 52+ 521.
London and Birmingham Shares were at 681 ;
Great Western at 251 to 26 ; the New at 111 to 11:t ;
South Western ut 15i, and Midland Counties, Quarter
Shares, at 6+ premium. Brighton were at 5i to 64 ;
Blackwall, 7 to 64 ; Manchester and Leeds, New, 9 to
8 ; and North, Midland 34 discount. Union Bank of
London Shares were at par.
The Foreign Exchanges were firm this afternoon.
For Three Months' Bills the nearest quotations were
these :—Paris, 25f. 60c. to 65c. ; Hamburgh, 13 10+ to
; Amsterdam, 12 41 to 4i ; Antwerp, 12 3k to 34 ;
Frankfort, 150 ; and Trieste, 9 58 to 591.

REPRESENTATION OF MARY-

LEBONE.

Yesterday two deputations of Medical gentlemen, con-
sisting of Messrs. Simpson, Hancome, Harrison, Curtis,
Storer, James Campbell, and Thomas 11. Cooper, from
the British Medical Association, and from a meeting of
members of the profession, being electors of the Borough
of Marylebone, waited on Sir Benjamin Hall and Sir C.
Napier. They stated that their purpose was to ascer-
tain the opinions of the two Candidates on the subject
of Medical Reform generally, and to engage them to
be present in the House of Commons whenever the
subject shall be discussed in the next Parliament.—[ln
which there is no doubt now entertained by any class
of electors, that the Hon. Baronet and the Gallant
Commodore will represent this borough.]
Mr. SIMPSON said the subject had been too much
neglected in Parliament, so that the House had been
counted out on nights when important questions of me-
dical reform were to have been discussed. The law was
amply "represented in the Commons, and the Church in
the House of Lords, but the Medical Profession, notwith-
standing its equal importance and respectability, had no
representative in the Legislature.
Both candidates stated that they had not sufficiently
attended to the subject to state opinions as to its details,
but they would give it their best attention, and promised
to be in their places in Parliament whenever any ques-
tion connected with it came before the House of Commons.
Sir BENJAMIN HALL said that on one part of the
question his mind was made up, that reform was re-
quired in the mode of granting diplomas—(Hear)—and
as to the appointment of medical officers in the Poor-
law unions, he thought the person of the best qualifica-
tions ought to be selected. He said that without giving
any opinion as to the mode of paying the officer.
Sir CHARLES NAPIER, in answer to a question from
Mr. Simpson, said it was his opinion that medical assist-
ants in the Navy ought to have a private cabin for them-
selves to read and pursue the study of their profession.
He also stated that the mess in the . gun-room was as
comfortable as that in the ward-room, and less expen-
sive, particularly since Mates had an increase of rank.
he deputation then took their leave, Mr. Simpson
and Mr. Harrison, on the part of their colleagues, expres-
sing entire satisfaction with the reception they had met
with, and the frank and sufficient answers they had re-
ceived.

A public meeting of the electors of the parish of Pad-
dington was held at half-past seven o'clock, for the pur-
pose of hearing the Reform candidates, and of taking
measures to secure their return.
13. M. Smart, Esq., was called to the chair, and on the
arrival of Sir Benjamin Hall and Sir Charles Napier they
were greeted with the most enthusiastic cheering. There
were then about 700 electors present.
The CHAIRMAN said that on occasions like this no
man should stand upon an apology for undertaking the
office imposed upon him, although no man could have a
lower estimate than himself of his qualifications to dis-
charge the duties efficiently. The crisis at which the
country had arrived was of the utmost importance.—
(Hear, hear.) They had to protect the rights of the
poor and of the whole country against those who en-
joyed monopolies detrimental to the interests of all.—
(Hear, hear.) The Whig Ministers had la last declared
their determination to put an end to those monopolies
which depressed the energies of the country—
(Hear, hear)—and they were opposed by that party
which had ever been the enemies of the poor, although
they now come forward with hypocritical pretence of
being the friends of the poor "par excellence."—(Cheers
and laughter.) To show something of the conduct of
those self-styled friends of the poor, he would read a
statement published by a man who lived amongst them,
whom they all knew, and on whom they could rely. The
following was the statement :
"REFOR.MERS OF MARYLEBONE.
"At a meeting of the friends of Sir J. Hamilton and
Mr. Cabbell, held at the Guilford Arms, Guilford-
street, Russell-square, an Elector put the following to
the Tory, Sir James :—" How about the Corn-laws ?"
To which Sir James returned the following reply, which
for elegance an 3 emphasis stands unrivalled in modern'
clo,ltience I " Damn the Corn-lauw ,"' (Tremendous
cheering.)
" The same evening Mr. Cabbell declared that he
Fought for the glory of God and his native land.'

PRICE 5d 4

ton Green, Friday, June 18, 1841, Mr. Cabbell uttered
the following detestable sentences, distinguished by vul-
gar ignorance and downright blasphemy ; and yet this
person is lauded by his party as a benevolent gentle-
man " If," said Mr. Cabbell, " you fear God! and
value your immortal souls ! ! send me and Sir James Ha-
milton to Parliament.—(Great laughter.) The Whigs
and Radicals are a contemptible crew— (Oh, oh)—they
are impertinent fellows—(Laughter)—an,d I hate them
as I hate the lowest depths of hell! ! !—(Loud cries of
" Shame.")

" Sir Jamas Hamilton then rose and said, this day was
the anniversary of the 18th of June, Waterlo "-
(Cheering, and loud cries of " Carnage")--and c -
by eulogising. the Duke at the expense of the Ga. .a-
pier. A motion was then moved in support or iaese
Liberal candidates, when—
" An Elector leaped into the midst .of the Tory party,
and boldly defended the right of the Reformers to good
Government. What, continued the speaker, have I not
a right to defend the party to whom I belong from unjust
aspersions? and have I not a right to say I feel disgusted
at the indecent language of Mr. Cabbell, about the fear
of God and our immortal souls?—(Cheers.) And then,
the Hon. Gentleman hates us as he hates hell—(Loud
cries of Shame)—he disbelieved in the charitable dispo-
sition of the Hon. Gentlemen from such nu-Christian
observations. He had been informed that the public mu-
nificence blazoned forth to the world by Mr. Cabbell, was
the result of benefactions given to him in trust to dispose
of?—(Oh! oh! and cheers.) And that he gave the sums
of money mentioned in a circular signed " John Wor-
rell," in his own name, but that the money did not ema-
nate from his pocket.--(Hear, hear.). He had also heard
that if poor applicants approached Mr. C.'s door in
Chapel-street, they were treated with contumely and
insult.—(Hear, hear.) Would Mr. Cabbell repeal the
Poor-law ?—(Laughter.) No, he would not: then hoW
base it was to raise this clap-trap everywhere; it was well
known that the Tories carried that abominable measura.
Would he repeal the Corn-laws, as he declares, for
cheap bread ?—(" No, I will not," from Mr. Cabell.)
Then what on earth could he do but talk of our " imper-
tinence, God, and our souls !"—(Great laughter.) Now,
with regard to the short speech of Sir `J. Hamilton—
(Laughter, in which the Hon. Baronet joined)--he
spoke of the Battle of Waterloo and the Duke of Wel-
lington, and endeavoured to elevate the military glory of
England. Had not Sir Benjamin Hall served his coun-
try manfully in Parliament for ten years ?—(Hear and
cheering)—and was the gallant Napier unknown to fame?
—(Much cheering.) Well, then, why seek to degrade
the naval heroes of his native land, and cast rebuke, by
inference, upon the wooden walls of Old England.—
(Loud cries of " Hear.)
" When the question was put, there was a majority
against it ; bat an artful Tory demanded a division,
which drove the industrious tradesmen from the room,
fearful of offending, their customers. The vote then
passed amidst great confusion.
" Electors! will;you return to Parliament such men—
the traducers of your dearly-cherished opinions upon Re-
form and Reformers—tyrants who seek power in order
to restrain your private opinions, and enslave generations
yet unborn ?
"The above are faithful extracts from Cabbell and Ha-
milton's speeches at the above places, and I challenge
contradiction, disdain concealment, and subscribe my
name, _ " WM. CROSS.

" Praed-street, June 22, 1841."
—[The statement was read amidst groans, hisses, and
laughter.] Mr. Smart said that if Sir James meant
what he said, every one there would agree with him,
" Damn the Corn-laws"—(Cheers and laughter)—but he
feared that Sir James meant only "Damn those whom the
Corn-laws ground to the earth." It was for the sake
of that part of his countrymen, he was desirous of se-
curing the election of the high-minded and long-tried
servants of their country, whom they were now assem-
bled to meet.—(Tremendous cheering.)
Sir BENJAMIN HALL would not imitate the language
which they had just heard, and which, unjustifiable at all
times, was particularly so at the time of an election.—
(Hear.) This was the first district of the borough in
which he had been introduced to his constituency, and
therefore he had on the present occasion paid his first
respects to them.—(Hear.) He would tell them why
they were now called together, and why the country was
about to be appealed to.—(Hear.) He would read the
explanation in the words of one whom they all honoured,
and whom he would support with the last drop of his blood.
—(Tremendous cheering.) That illustrious lady said this
day—" The paramount importance of the trade and in-
dustry of the country—(Cheers)—and my anxiety that
the exigencies of the public service should be provided
for in the manner least burdensome to the community—
(Repeated cheers)—have induced me to resort to the
means which the Constitution has entrusted to me of
ascertaining the sense of my people upon matters which
so deeply concern their welfare. '—(Three times three
rounds of most rapturous applause and cheering.) He
was a friend to Monarchical Government. He was de-
sirous of maintaining the just prerogatives of the Crown
which were not incompatible with the rights of the
people.—(Cheers.) It was. not necessary ter him, on
that occasion, to enter into any points of his public con-
duct for the future, as he was content to refer them to
his conduct for the last few years.—(Cheers.) He was
desirous of obtaining an extension of the suffrage, in
order that all might possess their rights—(Cheers)—the
ballot, that all might be able to exercise their rights—
(Repeated cheers)—and of a short duration of Parlia-
ments, in order that there might be short and satisfactory
settlement of all accounts between the representatives
and the constituency—(Cheers.) His constant advocacy of
the rights of
.the people had been the cause of the
strenuous opposition which he now met with from the
enemies of the people—(Cheers, and cries of "Never fear,
we'll come to the rescue," and renewed cheers.) Their
opponents professed now for almost the first time in their
political history to be the friends of the labouring
classes.—(Groans and laughter.) Let the labouring
classes then rise up, and ask them to give an ample ex-
tension of the suffrage.—(Cheers.) For his part he
went further for the extention of the suffrage than most
of those with whom he acted in Parliament. But,
nevertheless, he was called by the enemy a Whig.—(A
laugh.) He could only wish that all the Whigs would
go as far as he.—(Cheers.) He believed that the elector a
of Marylebone would soon give him a colleague
with whom he could cordially act—a man who was dis-
tinguished for his talent, integrity, frankness, decision
of character, consistency of conduct, and splendid ser-
vices to his country.—(Vehement and long-continued
cheering.) He was most desirous that his Gallant Friend
should be returned with him, and, as that was his only
desire as to the issue of the approaching contest, he
hoped that no friend of his, for the sake of placing him
higher on the poll, would give him a single vote, or, as
it is called, a plumper.—(Hear, hear, and a cry of
" You're an honest fellow.") There was now a moral
certainty of their election, and, notwithstanding the vaunts
of their opponents, he would not but remark upon the
great difference between the Tory meetings in the bo-
rough, and those which had been held by his Gallant
Friend and himself. All the Liberal meetings were pub-
licly convened and open to all the electors, but the Tory
meetings were composed of persons invited by circulars.
—(llear, hear, and laughter.) If their opponents would
venture to call a public and open meeting, even in that
parish, in which they boasted of a large majority—
(Laughter, and cries of " Hear, hear")—they would find
out how much they were deceived.—(Cheers.) The lion.
Baronet concluded amidst vehement applause and cheers.
Sir CHARLES NAPIER then rose, and for some time
was not permitted to proceed, by the prolonged and voci-
ferous cheering with which he was hailed. When the
greeting subsided, he said that his Hon. Friend (Sir B.
Hall) had already informed the meeting that her Ma-
jesty had sent the Parliament to the right about.—
(Cheers and laughter.) She had certainly done it in a
very laconic manner, and told them that she did so be-
cause they had not consulted the interests of the people.
—(Cheers.) Everything now depended with the people
themselves.—(Cheers.) If they sent to Parliament men
who would give them cheap bread, timber, and
sugar, the Queen would not be disappointed in
her appeal, and the people would not only gain those
immediate objects, but they would also gain the ballot,
an extension of the suffrage, short Parliament; and a
more just and humane administration of the Poor-laws.
—(Great cheering.) Justice also would be done to the
people of Ireland.—(Cheers.) He was not one of those
to call them " aliens in blood, in language, and in roll-
gion."—(Cheers.)hurs t.
people-11 (ti t Cne

would leave that to Lord Lynd-

idreelalb allied by the Tories.—(Cheers.) i.e hoped a
Parliament would be returned at the c butbis rights,tihlaeyd
approaching elec-
tion which would do Ireland full justice ; and then
England would be more powerful than ever.—(Reite-
rated cheers.) During the last war they had vast
numbers of the Irish in the army and the navy, and it
was not for him now to tell that meeting how they
did their duty, even at Waterloo.—(Cheers.) But
when the peace came, nothing was done for their cowl-
' try, which was left in the same state of degradation
and oppression as it had been in for centuries.—
(Hear, hear.) As his Hon. Friend had yet two meet-
ings to attend this night, he would not detain
the meeting longer than to urge them to come early to
the poll, for they might rely upon it that the first broad-
side was the best, and if they paid their shot out well,
the enemy would quit the field before twelve o'clock.
Resolutions were then passed unanimously and 1))
acclamation, pledging the meeting to support, with all,
their energy, Sir B. Hall and Sir C. Napier ; and thanks
having been voted to the Chairman, the meeting sepa-
rated with three times three for Sir Benjamin Ball and
Sir C. Napier.

ELECTION MOVEMENTS.
(FROM CORRESYONDENICS.
.lIEREFORDSIIIPE.—SInce I last wrote to you, the
eo 'unty of Hereford has been doomed to receive the
lr ost shameful and lasting disgrace, by (hiving Sir R.
I:rice, Bart., from the representation, because he has
'been manly enough to declare in favour of a fixed duty
on corn, instead of the present fraudulent sliding scale.
Many of his old friends and supporters have intimated
that they can no longer support him. Sir H. Price has
represented the county for twenty-three years, and spent
in so doing the sum of 20,0001., and is now deserted by
Lis friends.- The landholders would do well to invite
Sir J. Graham or Sir F. Burdett ; with such renegades
the v may unite, but their apostacy, like those puerile
Barciets, will alike merit the pity and scorn of all libe-
ral anti sound-Minded men, whose political principles are
uninfitieheed by the narrow feelings of selfish interest.
Sir R. Price's manly, honest, and patriotic parting ad--
dress created the most extraordinary sensation through-
out the county, and has tended to raise the spirit of
Liberalism to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. A requi-
sition in the city of Hereford, on Saturday last, was
signed by upwards of 500 voters in a few hours, calling
upon Sir lt. Price to come forward as a candidate ; so
that if the men of Herefordshire, who so gloriously
fought the battle of Reform, will only be true to their
Queen and country, the good caure is yet safe, and the
principles of liberty and anti-monopoly will receive a
signal and a glorious triumph, despite of a few Whig
renegades, and the whole tyrant Tory faction of the
county.

j.,HEMELD, JUNE 21.—Thanks, eternal thanks to the
Chartists of London, Preston, Aberdeen, and Bath, for
their spirited but rational appeals, which during the last
week have appeared in your advocate for free trade in
religion and politics. But my object is. not so much to
return thanks for what has been done as to arouse the
Radicals and Chartists of Hull, Finsbury, Leeds, Bolton,
Banbury and Rochdale, to a sense of their duty at this
momentous crisis. The attention of the virtuous and
the good is upon them—the men who obtain their living
by the sweat of their brow are watching,' and will
watch until the termination of the elections, their every
movement, for the advocacy of their principles mainly
depends upon your exertion. They advise, they urge,
they entreat you to send to the British Senate the best
friends of the 'people; by returning Col. Thompson for
Hull, Duncombe and Wakley for Finsbury, Hume for
Leeds, Dr. Boivring for Bolton, Vincent for Banbury,
and Sharman Crawford for Rochdale. The intelligent
portion of the middle and working classes will, I have
no doubt, prefer their nearest friends to their bitterest
enemies. But if you only do your duty by electing the
above-named candidates, I would defy all the power of
the aristocracy from any longer gulling the people.
Tories and Whigs have, first one and then the other,
rode upon the people's ass, but the time is come when
they must either rule their own or conseat to let us ride
along with them. I would add, in conclusion, that Ido
not approve of all the sayings and doings of O'Brien,
but 1 concur with him when he says, the man who
would advise the Chartists to vote for the Tories must be
either fool or traitor, and if he is the former he certainly
is not competent to lead the people ; but if the latter,
he should, whoever he is, be spurned, detested, and de-
spised by every lover of freedom.
Martin, the Petition Delegate to London, has ad-
dressed the Chartists of Sheffield, and at the conclusion
he attempted to palm a resolution upon us, thanking the
men of Nottinghath for returning Walter, but in conse-
quence of-the good sense of the good men of Sheffield,
it was very properly withdrawn. Parker and Ward will
certainly be returned for Sheffield, but not until they
have been well cross-examined. Charles Attwood, of
Newcastle ; Cardo, of London ; Warden, of Bolton,
the Tory tools of Urquhart and formerly Chartist
leaders, are endeavouring to get up a feeling in favour
of Urquhart, but neither Whigs, Radicals, nor Chartists,
will give them any favour, and only a section of the
Tories.

RADNORSHIRR, JUNE 22.—Lord Harley arrived here to..
day from canvassing the western aide of the county. His can-
vass has been a glorious one, the electors everywhere received
him with open arms, indeed so thankful have the great
body of the electors been that they regard his appearance
among them as a godsend. The electors are so disgusted at
the Tory candidate Sir John Walsh and his crew, that they
are determined to emancipate themselves. The Tories are
resorting to all sort' of intimidation ; their cause is so fallen
that as soon as Lord Harley arrived at Presteign, the 'Dry
agents used their utmost efforts to prevent the bellsbeing rung.
Sir John's unpopularity has become so great that many of his
own party say they will vote for a Raciical ih preferenee.
His imperious and supercilious conduct, but above all his bi-
goted and narrow-minded views, justly render him one of the
most unpopular' men of the day. A bright day is opening,
when Radnor's honest sons will again act as manfully as they
did in 1825, burst their chains of slavery, and once more be
free.

STROUD, JUNE 21.—Mr. Symons has very honourably re-
tired (though backed by a strong feeling in his favour) rather
than risk a loss to the cause, or avail himself of Tory support.
Messrs. Scroye and Stanton (a resident Whig) will, therefore,
be returned by a large majority over Sir Win. Wraxliall, the
Tory candidate.
LICHIFIELD.—Tbe Tories here got the start of us; Captain
Dyott has been in the field ten days. lam glad, however, his
Lordship arrived amongst us last Thursday. He has beets
actively engaged ever since, and is in excellent health
and spirits. In a few days I trust I shall be able to announce
that tee cause of Toryism and monopoly has sustained another
blow by the return of his Lordship as one of our repreientatives.
BuiDrosa, JUNE '2o.—Mr. Warburton arrived here last.
evening; his reception was the most enthusiastic we ever wit-
nessed, and must have been as gratifying to his feelings as it
was honourable to the electors of Bridport, who thus showed
how highly they appreciated his distinguished services. He was
met at the entrance of the town by at lest fife thousand per-
sons, comprising a large proportion of the wealthy and intelli-
gent as well as of the humbler classes. This immense &seem-
blage, preceded by a band of music and numerous banners
bearing appropriate inscriptions, conducted him to the inn.
The scene was of the most animated character ; all classes of
the inhabitants vied with each other in doing honour to the
man who, for the last fifteen years, has so faithfully represented
the interests of this borough in Parliament, and who his Veen,
through evil report and through good report, the untiring
champion of the rights of industry and conscience.
The people of England may rest assured that Bridlort will
do its duty at this important crisis. Not only will lir. War-
burton be again our representative, but we may now confidently
assert that Mr. Mitchell (an eminent London merchant, who
has already canvassed the town on free trade principles) will be
his colleague, notwithstanding the vain boastings of his Tory
opponent, Mr. Cochrane, and the disgraceful means adopted
by the agents and friends of Mr. Cochrane to induce the elec-
tors to break the promises of support which they have so freely
given to Mr. Mitchell.
DOVER, JUNE 22.—The three candidates are continuing
their respective canvasses. It appears quite clear that -111 r.
Rice and Sir John Reid will be reelected, and, indeed, many
doubt if Mr. Sergeant }Lacombe will go to the poll.

FIRE AT MAZE-POND.
(FURTHER PARTICULARS.)
From the report made by Mr. Braidwood of the property
destroyed and damaged, it appears that the loss is between
15,0001. and 20,0001. The warehouses belonging to Messrs.
Harris and Billiter are insured, together with the de elling-
house in Maze-pond, in the Phoenix-office, to the amount of
2,5001., and the stock, contents, &c., is insured in the same
office, to the extent of 5,0001.
The warehouses and other premises destroyed belonging to
Messrs. Fisher and Sons, leather-merchants, are said to be in-
sured in the Sun Fire-office to the extent of 10,0001.

Among the adjoining premises ;hat have sustained damage
by the fire in Maze-pond are St. Olave's Charity Schools (a
new brick building), Cully insured in the Union Fire-office ;
and No. 1, occupied by Air. Jackson, cabinet-maker, which is
also insured.

The houses Nos. 7,8, 9, 10, 11, and H.', Western-street,
and some others in Little ithze-court and Great Maze-court,
have sustained more or less injury. The buildings are sup-
posed to be insured, but unfortunately it is not the case wigs
the tenants, who are great sufferers.
In the early part of yesterday the outer walls of the ware..
houses of Messrs. Harris and Co. fell down, but happily no
accident happened.

most dreadful tempest
s.ac4ed here on Friday afternoon, for several hours, taking
a direction from N.N.E. The lightning was most vivid,
and the hail poured down in torrents, doing most exten-
sive damage in the corn fields, large tracts being so
completely laid that there is no possibility of its reco-
very. The loss sustained by many farmers, where there
was every prospect of an excellent crop, is unusually
great. 'lwo cottages in the neighbourhood of Big-gles-
wade were struck by the electric fluid, and burnt to the
ground. Many head of cattle were found dead on the
land. We have heard only of one instance in
which it proved fatal to human life. A labourer's wife,
of Hatfield, named Wood, the mother of a large family,
was at work some distance from her house, when the
tempest commenced, and hastened towards home to her
children. She was found some hours after dead on the
road. There were no appearances of her having been
struck by the electric fluid, and death is supposed to have
been occasioned by alarm and over excitement. On Sa-
turday a dreadful storm broke over the town of Hurt-
