The Parent, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and last
approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease,
which, for want of careful investigation of its real cause, has been
set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work,
he astonished to find, that In nine-tenths of the cases of young per-
sons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary con-
sumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth
much more frequently than it is at all suspected.

PRUSSIA.

The Archbishop of COLOGNE and M. CAMruAUSEN
have been elected to the National Prussian Diet for
Cologne.
There have been some disturbances during the
last few days at Dusseldorf, occasioned by ill-feeling
between the military and the people. On the evening
of the 6th the rioting assumed a very serious appear-
ance. One of the citizens was insulted by a soldier ;
some of his neighbours came to his assistance, and
the soldiers retreated and returned with a large party
of the- 13th Infantry, and proceeded to clear the
streets of the citizens. The citizen guard fortunately
arrived upon the spot in time to prevent both parties
proceeding to extremities. The Rifles, who are also
stationed in that town, have been manifesting their
dislike to the new movement in Germany by tearing
down the national cockade, and wearing the black
and white cockade (the Prussian colours) themselves.
On the following evening some of these soldiers made
their appearance at the Hof Gardens, a public prome-
nade, and got up a quarrel with the people, in which
several of the townsfolk were wounded by sabre cuts,
The generale was beaten, and the quarrel was with
some difficulty put an end to. The citizens have
insisted that these troops shall be removed from
Dusseldorf, and the Commandant has undertaken to
forward their remonstrance to the Minister at War.
The recent news from Treves continues to be of a
pacific character ; but the soldiers have been, in man
ur-
y
instances, maltreated by the peasantry of the s
rounding districts.
A letter from Berlin of the 6th states that hopes
may now be entertained that the uncalled for and un-
profitable war between the Danes and Confederation
will ere long he terminated. Both belligerent parties
appear disposed for peace. A. commissioner has been
dispatched to General WRANGEL'S head-quarters,
and the Danes have also an-
w for three weeks, with instructions for that officer to propose an armis-

RUSSIA.

ST. PETERSBURG", APRIL 30.—His Majesty the
Emperor of RUSSIA has confirmed the resolution of
the Committee of Finance of the 12th of April, in
accordance with which it is prohibited, after the 24th
of April-1. To export Russian gold and silver coin
from the whole of the western boundary of the em-
pire until further notice; 2. Drivers and travellers
will be permitted, the former to carry 100 roubles and
the latter 300 roubles, across the boundary, for each
person, of which a notification must be given at the
Customs.

TnE Russurt ARMT.—The Breslau Gazette says
that the number of men from Kalisch to Peisern
amounts to 18,000 ; among whom there are three
batteries of artillery. There are expectations among
the Russian military that they are to proceed against
the French. In the whole of the kingdom of Poland
there are already three army corps, each consisting
of 55,000 men, but probably making a total of
108,000. In Samogitia an army corps of 40,000
men. Within a month, according to orders received,
five and a half army corps are to assemble in Poland,
and probably the Ist, 2d, 3d, and 4th, and the grena-
dier corps, and the half of the Guards, besides 72
squadrons (total 8,640) of reserved cavalry.
FROM THE POLISH FRONTIER.--There remains
but little doubt as to the intended campaign of
Russia ; among other preparations, the creation of a
bridge of boats at the fortress Nowo Gierorgierosk,
across the Vistula, bas an evident warlike appear-
' ance, since there is no main road leading from the
fortress. Respecting the conspiracy discovered at

FENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
► The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it throegh the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change ; and it
can be incontestibly proved, that while many dyes tend to destroy
the hair by their pernicious properties and dangerous process of ap-
plication, that this article promotes the growth of hair, nourishing
the roots till the latest period of life. Price 3s. 6d., 65., and 10s.

SPAIN.

Madrid papers of the sth have arrived. The Gaceta
publishes two decrees for the regulation of financial
matters. The first orders the creation of 100
millions of Treasury Bills, in series of 1,000, 5,000,
10,000, and 20,000 reels each, bearing 6 per cent.
interest, and to be paid off by instalments on October
1 next, February 1, June 1, and October 1, 1849.
These bills, which are issued under the authorisation
of the Cortes, empowering the Government to raise
200 millions of reels, are to be receivable at par for
the payment of national property and for deposits and
securities required by the Government, and all those
that are not paid off by the Ist of October, 1849, are
to be receivable at par for all taxes and contributions.
They are to be bid for by public auction, and if not
taken are to be handed over to the bank to dispose of
on account of the Government. This decree is coun-
tersigned by Senor BELTRAN DR Lis, and dated the
Ist instant.

The second decree, countersigned as above, and
dated the 4th instant, is as follows :

" Art. 1. The notes of the Bank of San Fernando
shall be received as cash in payment of duties in all the
custom-houses of the kingdom.
" Art. 2. They shall be received in the same manner
in payment of the 100,000,000 of Treasury bills, which,
with reference to the decree of the Ist instant, and the
accompanying conditions, are to be put up to public
competition in all the capitals of provinces on the 20th
of the same month.
" Art. 3. The Finance Minister shall adopt the mea-
sures of precaution and security which he may judge
convenient for the execution of the above decree.
It was rumoured in Madrid, that in consequence of
a dispute between NARVAEZ and AIIRAFLORES, there

APPEARANCE OF THE NATIONAL

ASSE M BLY.
(FROM A PRIVATE LETTER.)
I succeeded in getting into the Assembly, and was
much interested. The room is the court-yard covered
in, and is enormous, The public are placed at the end,
and the number who can be present so small that they
could not possibly overawe the debates, as in tormer
times. I saw all the Provisional Government—Lamar
tine, a fine-looking fellow, but greyer, older, and with
smaller and sharper features than you see him in the
prints. Louis Blanc is like Sydney Herbert, raze to 3
feet 3 inches high. Ledru-Rollin much fatter, what the
French would call bel homme, i. e. with a swag belly—in-
solent, arrogant-looking, as he is in the prints. Ile was
much badgered for the conduct of his commissaries in
the elections, which he answered occasionally. I saw
all the principal members, Lacordaire, La Rochejaque-
lin, lluvergier d'Hauranne, Berryer, Odilon Barrot, &e.
I was much surprised at the respectable appearance of
the Assembly generally. They disregarded the decree
of the Provisional Government prescribing an uniform,
which not one wore, and yet I assure you to the rye,
making allowances for French beards and costume, they
looked quite as respectable as our own House of Com-
mons; indeed I did not see a single figure so bizarre as
Sibthorp among them. By a curious coincidence, on
the day and at the hour of the opening of the Assembly,
when the guns were announcing the departure of the
Provisional Government from the Hotel de Ville, on their
progress to the Assembly, Thiers was on duty in his
uniform as a private in the National Guard, mounting
guard with musket, &c., within the 2d legion.

SAXONY.

In the sitting of the Dresden Chambers some inter-
pellations were addressed to the Government on the
subject of the murder of Blum. M. Von der
Pfordten, the Minister, stated to the Chamber on that
occasion, that he had dispatched orders to the Saxon
envoy at Vienna to take under his protection all
S!s.nn re3i,l,:nt that cit 7; and that active
witslrE3 b2e3 taken by the eovoy to prevea the
sacrifice of B:utn, but tint all his remonstrance and
inquiries had been treated with the most contemptu-
ous silence by the Austrian Government.

HOLLAND.

The Ministry has presented a report to the King
respecting the reform of the budget. The result of the
report is that the state expenditure may be reduced
by the sum of 2,000,000 florins. The Ministry pro-
pose to curtail the salaries and emoluments of the
officers of state, and several sinecures are to be sup-
pressed entirely. The King has yielded a cordial as-
sent to the report.
The funds roe con.iderahly on the publication of
the report.

BAVARIA.

--- • -
Adrides from Munich in the Augsburg Gazette
announce the long expected modification of the Buva-
r:ful Ministry. The departments of the Interior and
J Public Workship are re-united, and assigned to
A f. Von Lerohenfeldt, the late Minister of Finance,
ho is succeeded in that office by M. Von Weigand.
The
epartme tit of Trade and Public Works is tern- j

porarily annexed to that of Foreign Affairs. The
change is universally approved of.

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

LOWE V. PENN.

The Court was occupied almost the whole of the day
in hearing the arguments in this case. It was an action
to recover compensation from the defendant for the
alleged infringement of an Archimedian screw which had
been patented by the plaintiff. The case was tried at
the sittings at Guildhall two or three terms ago, and a
verdict was found for the plaintiff. A rule had been ob-
tained calling upon him to show cause why the verdict
should not be set aside on the ground that there was no
novelty in the invention, and that the specification was
too vague and general.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom were Mr.
Sergeant Byles, Mr. M. Smith, Mr. Webster, and Mr.
Fluod) opposed at some length the making of the rule
absolute. He contended that the invention was per-
fectly distinct and unlike any screw formerly made, and
that the plaintiff was entitled to its uninterrupted use.
Sir Frederick Thesiger, Mr. Martin, and Mr.
Peacock supported the rule, on the ground cited above,
and on the additional one that the jury were mis-:
directed by the Learned Judge who tried the case.
The COURT intimated that they would take time to
consider the matter.

In the event of the rule being made absolute, the
Attorney•Genoral will tender a bill of exceptions to
various points.

SELF-PRESERVATION.

illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology,
and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa-

By SAMUEL LAILERT, M.D.,

Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of
Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Mall, London, Honorary
Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, se,

This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and
mnc neglected branch of medical practice, and the author having ob-
tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes-
sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat-
raent of these diseases.

REVIEW 0? THE WORK.
La'Mert on the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.... " There are
scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but
Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the
mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf
into which such scenes must plunge him i In the book before ns
such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the
erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al-
ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style
•f masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths' of
philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It jg a
production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally,
upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and
propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. Ity un
taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ;
but wherever
laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing In these
pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of
a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine.'

The journal Savoisien of the 17th inst. quotes a
letter from Palermo, of the .Ph inst., stating that the
Sicilian Parliament would probably repeal the two
decrees of the 15th of April and 10th of July last,
which established a constitutional monarchy in Sicily,
and proclaim the Republic, if the Duke of Genoa
should persist in refusing th,_? throne of that island.

ARRIVAL or A WHALER.—On Thursday morning,
the ship Abram arrived in eur docks from the Davis'
Straits fishery, being the last Hull vessel from thence
this season. The Abram's cargo consists of three fish,
which are expected to yield about thirty-eight tuns of
oil. During the homeward passage this vessel experi-
enced very boisterous and unfavourable weather, which,
we regret to add, caused the death of the master, Capt.
Good, and one seaman, Joseph Ling, who were washed
overboard by a heavy sea striking the vessel, on the 19th
of October, when off Cape Farewell, in the Western
Ocean. We understand this was the first voyage of the
unfortunate Mr. Good in the capacity of mister. Three
boats were also washed off the vessel's decks by the
same sea. The mate had a narrow escape, but was
luckily standing near the companion when the sea struck
the vessel, by which he was preserved from being swept
off. John Edmunds, "the loose harpooner," who had
been ill some time, was found dead in his berth on the
passage. The other vessels recently arrived from the
same destination encountered very heavy weather. The
Prince of Wales, Capt. Lee, had the misfortune to lose
three boats on their passage home. The four Hull ships
engaged in 'Davis'the
Straits fishery this year have
brought upwards 280 tuns.of oil into this por', in ad•
dition to the whalebone, &e.--hull Advertiser.

for if it were not repugnant to the g,neral feeling
of society, it would be more frequently acted on.
Why, then, should not this relic of hArbarism
be v; holly and immediately abolished, and s' pt
from the statuto-book, on which if; is a No',
:Ind a stain ? Adequate punishments can be allol ted
to every degree of guilt; why should one be super-
added that must necessarily prove most unequal in
its operation ? Bad, however, as it is when the Crown
is entitled to the forfeiture, it is infinitely worse when
the right has been delegated to private parties, such
as lords of the soil, corporations, &c. &c. In the
former case the penalty is generally remitted, and
the inconvenience can be removed, although it may
occasion expense and annoyance. No adequate
remedy, however, can be devised in the latter case.
But little benefit can he derived by the parties en-
titled; and we are convinced that there are few in-
deed who would not gladly surrender the possession of
a right so obnoxious, if required to do so by a decided
expression of public opinion.

SAXONY.

On the receipt of the news of the murder of BLUME
at Leipsic on the 14th, a popular meeting was held in
the Church of St. Thomas. M ALBRECHT related
the great loss the German people had experienced by
his death, and the following resolutions were passed:—
" A funeral ceremony shall be prepared, at which
all his friends shall attend as mourners, the 9th No-
vember, to be kept each year as a day of mourning;
the corpse of 13Lusx to be demanded; the Saxon
Envoy in Austria to be brought to trial; the Aus-
trian Envoy at Dresden to have his passports sent
him ; the Saxon deputies in the Frankfort National
Assembly to be called on to withdraw; and the
family of &um to be supported by the state."

ROYAL ACADEMY or Music.—We understand that
.he new mode of education in the dramatic art, and
he practice of elocution superinduced upon the usual
course of musical instruction given to the pupils of
the Royal Academy of Music, has been most success-
fully introduced by Mr. Frederick Webster, professor
of elocution to that excellent institution, and that the
pupils are progressing rapidly under his guidance.
DREADFUL MURDER NEAR BRECON.—NEWPORT,
MONDAY.—Scarcely had the sensation caused by the
murder at Cardiff been felt at Brecon, than a brutal
murder was committed at a farmhouse called Cwmgwdy,
near the latter town, upon one of the farm servants
there, a most inoffensive man, named Thomas Edwards,
aged about 32, a single man. It appears from sufficient
evidence to establish the fact, that the murder was com-
mitted by a fellow-servant of the name of Thomas Wil-
liams, who has but recently come upon the farm to re-
side. On the morning of Friday last the body of poor
Edwards was found, presenting a ghastly spectacle.
The brains had literally been beaten out of the head
through many parts of the broken skull, which had been
smashed in several places by an axe; the fatal instru-
ment was found close by, covered with blood. Williams
had fled, and there was immediate proof discovered of
his having robbed the murdered man of very much wear-
ing apparel and a silver watch. The murderer is de-
scribed as a young man only 19 years of age, five feet
two inches in height, stoutly built, &c, sad is a native
of Kingsland, i❑ Herefordshire.
On Wednesday last, at Oxenhoath, a very impor-
tant and extensive sale of short-horned cattle, Leicester
and other sheep, the property of Sir William Richard
Poulett Geary, Bart., who has let his farms, were brought
to the hammer by Mr. Wetherell and Mr. Herbert
Prickett (conjointly on this occasion) before a numerous
and highly respectable company, consisting of the neigh-
bouring gentry, as well as breeders of stock from dis-
tant counties. After an introductory speech, comment•
ing on the great judgment which had been displayed in
tho selection of the short-horns, Leicester, and other
sheep, the sale commenced with great spirit, the bidding.
were rapid, and after considerable competition the greater
part were sold at very high prices.

FRANKFORT.

On the 16th instant the President of the German
Parliament officially communicated to the Chamber
the news of Robert Blum's execution, and then
" gave the word " to M. Kirschgessnar, the reporter
of the Committee appointed to investigate the affair.
That gentleman immediately moved a resoluaion
imperatively calling upon the Imperial Ministry to
adopt energetic measures for the accusation and
punishment of those mediately and immediately
inculpated in the execution of M. Blum, and stig-
matizing that act as an atrocious violation of the
imperial law of the 30th of September, 1847. The
questioh was put forthwith, without discussion,
and the motion was carried nem. dis., and in solemn
silence.

On the 17th the Parliament determined on the
adoption of further resolutions hostile to the Austrian
Government. At the sitting of that day the address
from Leipsic was read by the President, and declared
to be in perfect harmony with the resolution in the
Assembly. A motion was then made by M. Giskra,
pledging the Imperial Government of Germany to an
immediate interference for the protection promised by
the laws to the subjects of Austria, " consi-
dering that the Diet of that empire is not- at
present assembled, that its resolutions have
not been adopted by the Austrian Ministry
since the 6th of October, and that it Is not
probable, under such circumstances, that the Austrian
Government will pursue a different course." This
proposal was declared " urgent," and almost imme-
diately carried by a majority 238 to 198 votes. A
motion was afterwards made for the removal of M.
Bessermann, in consequence of his adhesion to the
views of the King of Prussia, and although the pro-
posal to discuss it instanter was not adopted, the ma-
jority which decided in the negative was a very
doubtful one, and it was only postponed till the fol-
lowing day, when there appeared some probability
that. it would be carried.

IRELAND.

CASE OF MR. JOHN MARTIN.
DUAL", MONDAY.--It was reported yesterday
that immediately after the judgment of the Court
Mr. Martin was sent direct to the convict depot at
Spike Island, preparatory to transmission to the place
of his ten years banishment. Such, however, was
not the fact; but it is believed that Government
means to carry out the sentence against Mr. Martin
with as little delay as possible. His friends still
speak of bringing the case before the House of Lords,
and in the event of the Attorney-General withholding
his sanction to the writ of error, it is stated that a
petition will be presented to the Chancellor, praying
his Lordship to direct the writ to issue, if it so seem
fit. Although the Chancellor may have jurisdiction
in this matter, there are, but few authorities in sup-
port of this novel claim.

THE NORTHERN STATES,

AUSTRIA.

Field Marshal WELDEN arrived at Vienna on the
12th, and immediately assumed the government of the
city. "It is well WELDEN is come," sneered the
cynical WINDISCHGRATZ, " my heart is too tender
to
maintain proper order at Vienna."

Immediately after his arrival WELDEN issued the
following proclamation, which is published in the
official Wiener Zeiteng of the 14th :

" TO THE RIGHT-MINDED ♦ND INTELLIGENT INHABI
TANTS OF VIENNA.
" All the consequences of the most fearful anarchy
have been experienced by you in their most terrible form,
and have carried discord even into the family circle.
This state of things must speedily terminate. The good
old principle, justice, must maintain its po►t, or we are all
lost ; every individual household can subsist only if it
be founded upon order and on law. The earth itself,
which God has created in such perfect beauty, moves in
its appointed course.

MR. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet-

TION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished front the originals by the closest observer; they
never change col iur or decay, and will be bound very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of rsots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restoro articulation and
mastication; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within
reach of the most economical, lie has fixed his charges at the lowest
scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.-52, Fleet-street. At Home from Ten till Five.

AUSTRIA.

On the 20th ult. there was a grand funeral service
celebrated at Vienna in memory of the citizens who
fell in the days of March. All the Members of the
National Assembly were present.
The EMPEROR has signified to the Ministry, that
it is not his intention to return to Vienna for the

present.
" A letter from Vienna says—" We have received
by Inspruck intelligence from Marshal RADETZKY,
dated July 28. It states that General WELDEN has
taken Cremona by assault. The enemy quitted
Peschiera in all haste, and crossed the Lake Garda in
flight. The EMI'EROR has sent to the Marshal the
order of Maria Theresa."
Another letter froin Vienna of the 28th ult. says—
" The Archduke REGNIEn has been named Lieu-
tenant of the EMPEROR in the place of the Archduke
JOLIN. This intelligence produced a bad effect at the
Bourse ; the upper classes consider him the cause of
the Italian war."

PRUSSIA.

On Sunday the KING gave a magnificent fete to
the Members of the National Assembly at Sans
Souci. The Prince of PRUSSIA has been attacked
by the cholerine, a mild species of cholera.
The Aix-la-Chapelle Gazette has the following
from Berlin, dated the 30th ult. :—" It is stated that
the two squadrons of Hussars, which came in yes-
terday from Potsdam, were called upon before
their departure to make a solemn promise to op-
pose all ideas of anti-Prussian unity. Count By-
Low, one of the first officers of the regiment, gave
them a dinner previous to their departure, during
which he addressed them in the following terms:—
So long as the Hussar shall have:his sabre by his
side, and cartridges in his cartouch-bbz, he can have
no reason for thinking of a fraternization with the
mob of Berlin. For my part, I know not what a
people means. I know only a King, obedient
soldiers, and faithful subjects. Besides, Ido not re-
cognise either a German Unity or a Vicar of the
Empire.'"
Ther Berlin correspondent of the bulepentlance of
Brussels writes on the 30th ult. Our city was
disturbed last evening by demonstrations which
journalists, when similar manifestations are made in
a legislative Assembly, designate as Mouveinents en
sens contraire. The Radicals and their adherents
made acclamations in favour of the unity of
Germany, and sung aloud in the streets a
song which was composed, not in accordance
with their ideas, by Father Aursorr, the burthen of
which is where is the country of Germany ? Some
of the Prussian black and white flags having been
displayed under the Linden trees, groups assembled
and insisted upon their being removed. The new

constables were forced to interfere. As an illuitra-

tion of German unity, there was a great interchange
of violent blows, and it is said, wounds of more or
less gravity were given and received. In opposition
to these self-created Germans, the burgher guards
returning from their military exercise, resounded
Prussian airs, such as I am a Prussian! Behold
my flag, &c.
