BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH, New-
road, London.
The principles of the Ilygeian theory are contained in the follow-
ing propositions :-
1. The vital principle is contained in the blood.
2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood.
3. All constitutions are radically the same.
4. All diseases arise from the impurity of the blow], or, in other
words, from acrimonious humours lodged in the body.
S. This humour, which degenerates the blood, has three sources
—the maternine, the contagious, and the personal.
6. Disease and pain have the same origin, and may therefore be
considered synonymous terms.
7. Purgation by proper vegetable purgatives is the only effectual
mode of eradicating disease.
S. Experience of upwards of twenty years has amply proved MO-
RISON'S VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINES to be such
proper ♦egetable purgative.
8. From the intimate connexion subsisting between mind and
body, the health of the one must conduce to the serenity of the
other.

Marriage requires the fulfilment •f several oondltions, in order
that It may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and Its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused Abe prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
Shan any other to which it is subiect.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health
anda 01 the physical capabilities of which every man should
posseand. It unfertunately happens that the unhappy

FIRE IN ST. PAUL'S CHURCHYARD, CAUSED BY THE
Susr.—Yesterday afternoon, between three and four
o'clock, a tire that at one time threatened very disas-
trous consequences, broke out upon the premises belong-
ing to Messrs. Cook, Sons, and Co., warehousemen, &c.,
of St. Paul's Churchyard. Owing to the timely assist-
ance of the workmen on the premises the damage was
confined to the destruction of twenty-five cotton dress-
pieces, some waistcoat pieces, and the demolition of
eighteen squares of glass. In making his return to the
insurance offices Mr. Braidwood gives the following
"cause of fire:"—A linen curtain, which hung before
the top floor back window, took fire at the open part, of
the window first. The window faces the south, and
being higher than the opposite buildings, is completely
exposed to the sun. The firm is insured in eleven of
the principal fire-offices in London and the county.
ALLEGED ATTEMPT AT MURDER DT A SOLDIER
IN CARLISLE GARRlSON.—Considerable esensation has
been created in the Castle and its neighbourhood by a
report that a private of the 30th Regiment of Foot, of
which a company is now stationed in our garrison, had
attempted to shoot Sergeant Doherty, of that regiment.
The private is named Gleeson, and from what has trans-
pired his motive appears to have arisen out of an im-
pression that he had received unnecessarily harsh treat-
ment at the hands of the sergeant. On Wednesday
forenoon, between eleven arid twelve o'clock, Gleeson
was observed by two other soldiers, who were in the same
room, to load his musket. After placing it aside, he
went below to another room, wherein were sitting Ser-
geant Doherty and several privates, reading. Gleeson
asked Sergeant Doherty to come up stairs, as he had
something there he wished to show him. '1 he sergeant,
however, appeared indifferent about it, and simply replied
that he was busy, on which Gleeson returned by himself
to the room above. Five minutes had hardly elapsed
before a footstep was heard on the stairs, and Gleesou,
most probably expecting that it was the sergeant coming
up, seized the musket (which was loaded with ball cart-
ridge and capped), and presented it at the man who en-
tered the room, who proved to be Corporal Fuller. Pri-
vale Cuthbert rushed upon Gleeson, and wrested the
firelock from him before the trigger was snapped. Had
he not succeeded, probably the curporul would have re-
ceived a deadly wound from a charge which was intended
for the seargeant. Gleeson was immediately secured and
conveyed to the guard-room. Yesterday (Thursday)
morning, Gleeson was examined before Capt. Wilkinson,
when he stated that Sergeant Doherty had reported him
and got him confined three days to barracks, for alleged
dilatoriness in the ranks. Be also complained of the
cmoenndtu, cwt oi

ment, eugni
to the adjutant, for alleged misconduct or negligence,
and the adjutant generally ordered them on " instruction
drill" till further orders, as a punishment. This, Gleeson
said, was not the case in any other regiment. Gleeson
remains in the guard-room, awaiting trial on the charge.

ACCIDENT ON THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY.
—An accident which had nigh been attended with most
serious, if not fatal consequences, occurred on Friday
afternoon on the Newmarket portion of the Eastern
Counties Railway. It appears from the inquiries made
at the London terminus that the Newmarket Company
run no laggage or good trains, but introduce luggage
vans and trucks into their passenger trains. On Friday
afternoon the 3 30 p.m. train left Newmarket at its cus-
tomary time for London, and proceeded on its journey
to Dullingham, which is the first station, four miles
from Newmarket, the whole of which distance the line
is along an inclined plane up hill. At Dullingham the
train was stopped, and the engine, with a van, which is
a break carriage, was detatched, and turned into a siding
for the purpose of fetching,an addition to the train, con-
sisting of two or three luggage trucks, going to town,
leaving the train on the main line, nearly at the top of
the hill. The train, however, when detached from the
engine and van, made a retrograde momement, whether
impelled by its own weight downward is not known, but
it continued its ;progress, its speed increasing as it des-
cended the hill, until it dashed with great force into the
Newmarket terminus, from which it had started, to the
no small consternation of the passengers, who were most
of them thrown violently from theiriseats by the force of
the concussion. Every assistance was immediately
afforded them; surgeons were sent for, and were in
prompt attendance, when it was found, on examination,
that four persons only had sustained serious injury.
One of them was a lady, who exhibited some severe cuts
and contusions about the head and face. Another had
the appearance of ajockey, who, in addition to similar
injuries, was much bruised. The above is the first ac-
cident of the kind that has happened since the opening
of the Newmarket line.—Observer.
DEATH BY DROWNING.—Last night, between the
hours of eight and nine o'clock, a boy of the name of
Mills, about ten years of age, was accidentally drowned
in the Regent's canal, near the Maiden-lane-bridge. It
appears that the deceased was standing on the towing-
path, at the time that a barge was coming along,
when the rope attached to the barge caught the de-
ceased and precipitated him into the canaL The drags
were immediately sent for, but before they arrived the
body was got out by a boy, who plunged into the canal
after the poor fellow, quite dead, it having been under
the water about six minutes. The body now lies at
the Albion public house, Maiden-lane, Battle-bridge.
ADJOURNED INQUEST ON MR. W. DALTH.—Last
night Mr. W. Payne, the City coroner, resumed at the
Parochial School-room, Church-passage, Shoemakers'-
row, Blackfriars, the adjourned inquiry touching the
death of Mr. W. Dakin, tea merchant, No. 1, St. Paul's
Churchyard. Two witnesses having been examined, at
the request of the legal gentlemen present, the inquiry
was again adjourned to Tuesday (this day week), to the
London Coffee-house, the present room being found too
small. _ _

The state of the unemployed, both in Edinburgh
and Glasgow, is exciting much anxiety. In the latter
city, about 6,000 schedules have been lodged, but em-

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.)
OLD Collll7'.
(Before the RECORDER and Mr. Alderman W. HUNTER.)
CHARGE OF STEALING A PICTURE OF THE VALUE OF
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY POUNDS.—Mr. Henry Gont-
pertz, a very respectable•looking man, surrendered to his
ba►l to answer an indictment charging him with stealing
a picture of the value of 1501., the property of John W.
Wren.

Mr. Cockburn attended specially for the prosecution,
and Mr. Crowder for the defendant.
Mr. COCKBURN, immediately upon the jury being
charged, said that after reading the depositions he had
not the slightest hope of being able to convict the party.
accused, and therefore, on the part of the prosecution,
he declined occupying the Court with a prosecution that
he felt convinced must fall.

The RECORDER observed that the transaction was an
enormous contract, an enormous deposit, and a slight
result.

The jury then, under the direction of the Learned
Judge, found Gumpertz Not Guilty, and he left the
court surrounded by his friends.
This case, we understand, has been adjourned, from
session to session, for some time.
SHEEP STEALING.—John Webb and George King were
convicted of feloniously killing a sheep, the property of
John Scratton Thompson, and stealing the carcase, at
Barking, on the 19th of April last, and sentenced to
twelve months' imprisonment and hard labour in the
House of Correction.

Alfred Grazert, a youth 19 years of age, who had
been in the service of Viscount Jocelyn, pleaded Guilty
to an indictment charging him with feloniously forging
a warrant and order for the payment of 101., with intent
to defraud William Prirg,
Lord Jocelyn, who had been in court all the morning,
immediately upon the
prisoner pleading guilty, re-
quested the permission of the Court to make a few
observations on his behalf. The prisoner had been in
his service up to the date of the transaction, and he had
never entertained the slightest suspicion of his honesty
until this charge was brought against him. He now believed
that he had formed some bad connexions, which be was
most anxious he should get rid of; and if the Court could
consistently with its duty, pass upon the prisoner a light
sentence, he (Lord Jocelyn) would make arrangements
by which the prisoner should be sent out to sea for three
years, and by that means get rid of acquaintances that
would lead him to ruin. He was in hopes that this
course would be the means of reclaiming the prisoner,
and ultimately make him a good member of society.
The prisoner cried bitterly during this recommenda-
tion to mercy by his noble and feeling master.
The RECORDER sentenced him to six months im-
prisonment in Newgate, observing that the offence was
one which required punishment, and that any remission
of the sentence of the Court must be made by the Se-
cretary of State ; or any representation to whom, on
behalf of the prisoner, he would join the Noble Lord,
who had so kindly exerted himself on behalf of the
prisoner.

MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
:.1 ~1., .trivait (THIS DAY-)
About half-past ieven o'clock this morning the utmost
,a,,• , , .
consternation Was create tu 06 neighbourhood of
Houndaditch, by the discovery of the body of a child,
about six years of age, in the back yard of the house,
No. 16, Tenter-street, Spitalfields. Information was
instantly conveyed to the station-house, Leman-street,
when, on inquiry, it was found that the child, whose
death was caused by strangulation, a handkerchief being
fastened tightly round the throat, was the son of a
person name Lazarus, living at No. 26 in the same
street He was last seen at home at six o'clock on the
previous night, being at the time dressed in a new suit
of corduroy, of which he was stripped, after having
been murdered; and the possession of this paltry pro-
perty is the only accountable motive for the abominable
crime. At half-past eleven o'clock two men in their shirt
sleeves, in a high state of excitement, were seen drag-
ging an ill-favoured masculine looking woman towards
the station-house in Leman-street, Whitechapel, sur-
rounded by a crowd. The rumour was, that she was in
custody for the murder of her own child, and it was with
great difficulty that the police were able to prevent
the women, who formed the larger portion of the
crowd, from tearing her to pieties. W hen taken to the sta-
tion-house she gave the name and address, Sarah Rogers,y
14, Angel-court, Stony-lane, Houndaditch. The primer
evidence against her was, that whilst in the mob who
were discussing the murder in the Tenter-ground, she
was heard to say, that she knew the person who a
pur-
chased the clothes of the murdered boy, and that man
in Bridewell- alley could throw a light upon the matter.

shyh was seen in close COMM • •
