31 One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
titter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
tiorciprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
end broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-

Doctor of Medicine. Matriculated Member of the University of E4l
burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member
-
of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. n
marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, 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 .the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and conseouence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
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 tho closest attention and study, for what subj
the ect can
be of more importance than the preservation of health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all,
secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical noun who can show by his posse,sion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

DEATH OF JAMES WATT, EsQ.—Our obituary of
this week records the death of James Watt, Esq., the
last surviving son of the illustrious improver of the steam-
engine. He was born on the sth of February, 1769, and
was, therefore,' in his 80th year. Inheriting a large
share of the powerful intellect of his distinguished father,
to the extension of whose fame he had for the last thirty
years shown the most zealous and truly filial devotion,
he united to great sagacity and a masculine understand-
ing the varied acquirements and literary tastes of a well-
cultivated mind. His name will long be remembered in
association with that of the late Mr. Boulton, as they
were for nearly half a century successfully engaged in
carrying out those inventions and improvements by which
the genius of his father was immortalised. For the last
eight years of his life he had comparatively retired from
active business, and had devoted much time and atten-
tion to the improvement of his extensive estates in the
counties of Radnor and Brecon, where his tenantry will
have to lament the loss of a kind, energetic, and liberal
landlord.—Birmingham Journal.

IRELAND.
DUBLIN, JUNE 14.—Mr. John O'Connell is certainly
no prophet. On Monday week he was a firm friend of
fraternization. On the following Monday, helloing
the Catholic Bishops were opposed to union, he de-
clared himself adverse to the proposition, and was
most heartily hooted in consequence, when, behold
you, it now appears that the Catholic Bishops afore-
said, including the Lion of the fold of Judah and the
Dove of Elphin, are all staunch supporters of " the
new organization." That the fact is so canno4 any
longer be denied. True it is that Mr. John O'Connell
received and read, at Conciliation Hall,
an epistle from
Dr. Cantwell, in which "great discouragement " was
dealt out to the project ; but it is also true, that while
Mr. J. O'Connell was reading the letter of disapproval,
the Right Rev. Father was writing another, in which he
gave it his heartiest support. " Truth is strange, stranger
than fiction ;" and never was the aphorism better exem-
plified than in the following:—
" Coffey's Hotel, June 12, 1848.
"Dear Mr. O'Connell,—Having come to town on my
way to Drogheda, I have read in the evening papers the
terms proposed to-day in the Association for the re-
union of Repealers. I hasten to express my cordial
concurrence in them. There occurs to me no alteration
that I would wish to suggest, with the exception, Per'
haps, of a mere verbal one in rule the 10th, which
might, it is likely, be better calculated to secure the co-
operation of the Catholic bishops and clergy, if worded
as follows 10th. Ecclesiastical or religious subjects
are not to be introduced into the discussions of the
League, except when it may be required for the defence
of religious liberty, or for protecting and vindicating
the inalienable rights and immunities of conscience.'
This change, however, I do not consider as very
impor-
tant, the same security being given as to principle by
the 10th rule as it stands at present. "
Having had frequent opportunities of knowlng the
views and wishes of the Archbishop of Team, and the
Bishop of Ardagh, who are at present, absent In Rome
defending the Irish Church against the most' treacherous
and dangerous assaults of her enemies, I feel confident
that were they in Ireland they, too, would gladly hail
this union of Irishmen in a league to secure what can
alone save our afflicted and misgoverned country.
" I have the honour to remain, my dear Mr. O'Con-
nell, your ever faithful and devoted servant,
" t JOUN CANTWELL.
" To John O'Connell, Esq., M.P."
The Freeman, referring to the foregoing, states that
the Right Rev. Dr. Maginn has written in the strongest
terms in favour of the proposed union. The Confederates
have postponed their meeting
till this day week in order
that the country may be afforded time to give expression
to its opinion on the subject.
THE NAVIGATION-LAWS.--The Chamber of Com-
merce, Belfast, have met and declared that it is just and
proper to apply to the shipping interest the free-trade
principles adopted in other branches of business. The
resolution was proposed by Mr. Grimahaw, and seconded
by Mr. Heron, one of the most extensive shipowers in
Belfast. This gentleman declared that in his opinion
" every shred of monopoly should be abolished save
what could be established by British energy, intelligence,
and wealth."
THE ARMY.—The Tipperary Vindicator complains of
the misconduct of the 34th depot quartered in Nenagb.
Intoxication, it appears, is among the most pardonable of
their offences.
AFFAIR OF HONOU/I.—Dr. Fulton and Mr. Robert
Jennings were brought before the magistrates of College-
street Office upon a warrant which had been issued for
their apprehension, grounded on the information to the
effect that it was their intention to commit a breach of
the peace by fighting a duel. The information was
sworn in consequence of a fracas which took place be-
tween the parties in the Four Courts on the previous
day, in which some severe blows were given.
Mr. Jennings entered into his own recognizances to
the amount of 2001. to keep the peace, and gave two sure-
ties besides, Mr. Thomas M. Dunlevie, of Rutland-square,
and John Peebles, M.D., of Dorset-street. He was then
set at liberty.
Dr. Fulton at first declined to enter into bail, on the
ground that he had been assailed first, and had only de-
tended himself.
The matter was postponed for a time, and when Dr.
Fulton was again brought forward,
Mr. O'CALLAGHAN said he would commit him if he did
not enter into bail.
The prisoner applied to be sent down in custody to the
Queen's Bench.
Mr. O'CALLAGHAN said he would not do anything of
the kind.
Dr. Fulton then said he had no alternative but to give
bail. He then entered into his own recognizances in the
same amount as the other prisoner, and Mr. Perry, soli-
citor, and Mr. Dowling, merchant, became his sureties,
after which he was liberated.

its derivation for commercial purposes is the volcanic dis-
tricts, and especially Solfatara, near Naples. The mines
of Sicily have been worked for several centuries; but it is
only since 1820 that any considerable quantity was pre-
pared for exportation. Subsequently to 1833, the trade
with this country increased so much, that the export of
sulphur to the United Kingdom rose from about
20,000 tons in that year to 38,654 tons in 1838.
In the autumn of that year the Neapolitan Govern-
ment .established a monopoly in the trade, at the
suggestion of a Frenchman named Tait, the imme-
diate consequence of which was to cause a rise in
the price of sulphur from 6L or 71. a ton to double
that amount. In 1839 the importation to this
country fell from 44,000 tons to one half that
quantity. To show what effect this injudicious move
of the Sicilian government had upon science, we cannot
do better than quote the following extract from an inte-
resting little work by the celebrated German chemist
and philosopher, Justice Liebig, entitled " Familiar
Letters on Chemistry."
' " Reflecting upon the important influence which the
price of sulphur exercises upon the cost of production of
bleached and printed cotton stuffs, soap, glass, &c., and
remembering that Great Britain supplies America, Spain,
Portugal, and the east with these, exchanging them for
raw cotton, silk, wine, raisins, indigo, &c., we can under-
stand why the English Government should have resolved
to resort to war with Naples, in order to abolish the
sulphur monopoly, which the latter power attempted re-
cently to establish. Nothing could be more opposed to
the true interests of Sicily than such a monopoly;
indeed, had it been maintained for a few years, it is
highly probable'that sulphur, the source of her wealth,
would have been rendered perfectly valueless to her.
Science and industry form a power to which it is
dangerous to present impediments. It was not diffi-
cult to perceive that the issue would be the entire
cessation of the exportation of sulphur from Sicily.
In the short period that the sulphur monopoly
lasted, fifteen patents were taken out for methods to
obtain back the sulphuric acid used for making soda.
Admitting that these fifteen processes were not per-
fectly successful, there can be no doubt that it
would, ere long, have been accomplished. But then
in gypsum (sulphate of lime), and in heavy spar
(sulphate of barytes), we possess mountains of sul-
phuric acid; in galena (sulphuret of lead), and in
iron pyrites, we have no less abundance of sulphur.
The problem is, how to separate the sulphuric acid
or the sulphur from these native stores. Hundreds
of thousands of pounds weight of sulphuric acid
were prepared from iron pyrites while the high price
of sulphur consequent upon the monopoly lasted.
We should probably, ere long, have triumphed. over
all difficulties and have separated it from gypsum. The
impulse has been given, the possibility of the process
proved, and it may happen in a few years that the in-
considerate financial speculation of Naples may deprive
her that of that lucrative commerce."
Through the intervention of the British Govern
ment in 1840, the, sulphur trade with Sicily was
placed on the same footing as previously to 1838,
and in that state it still continues, though the quan-
tity now, imported is very considerably reduced, in
consequence of the extraction of it from some of the
ores of iron and copper, termed pyrites. By far the
most considerable applications are in the preparations
of sulphuric acid, and of gunpowder, which is a mix-
ture of sulphur, nitre, and charcoal. An enormous
quantity is also consumed in the preparation of
matches, lucifers, and fireworks; it is employed in
medicine extensively; in the preparation of vermilion,
which is a combination of mercury and sulphur;
to cement iron bars into stone; and also for bleach-
ing and disinfecting. The last mentioned are how-
ever applications of sulphurous acid, one of the com-
binations of sulphur and oxygen, which we shall
hereafter have to notice. It has been recently estimated
that about 5,000,000,000 lucifer matches are annually
consumed in Great Britain alone, and one maker con-
sumes 1,0001. worth of American pine in manufacturing
them.
The success that has attended the various manu-
factures of our country, almost entirely dependent on
she science of chemistry, should teach us how dili-
gent search -after new truths, however remote they
may at first appear frosn'any'direct practical applica-
tion, may, in the course of time, lead to results of
the greatest importance, and that no well-ascertained
laet in natural science is ever barren.—Trades' Weekly
Messenger.

A NOVEL CURE FOR A SNAKE BITE.--The Syd-
ney Morning Chronicle relates a successful, but some-
what novel mode of curing the bite of a snake, the par-
ticulars of which may be found useful. The wife of an
Irishman, who was very partial to whisky, having been
bit in the leg by a snake of a very venomous
description, and no surgeon being at hand, the
husband flew to his favourite for a remedy.
Taking a bottle of whisky he applied it mouth down-
ward to the wound, and kept it fast in that position till
the surgeon arrived, On being questioned by the latter
as to the reason of this application, the man replied that,
as whisky was good for everything, he thought it would
be good for a snake bite. The bottle was removed, and it
was found that the liquor had become darker, while there
was a corresponding decrease in the discoloration surroun-
ing the wound. Seeing that the spirits had acted so well
more was upplied in the same manner, until the liquor
came from the a ound pure and untainted, by which means
the patient was totally recovered. If a cure can really be
effected in this way, it is probable that one kind of spiri-
tuous liquor will suffice as well as another for the pur-
pose, and the remedy is one which may in most instances
be obtained when surgical aid is not procurable.
EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM OSTEND.--TUESDAY,
NINE A.m., JUNE 13.—This town and neighbourhood
was visited by one of the moat terrific thunder storms that
has ever been known to take place within the memory
of the oldest inhabitant. The morning was unusuall )
fine until one or two o'clock, P.m., when the heat be.
came close and oppressive; yet, notwithstanding, the
sea wall or dike, and outskirts of the town, i daring
the whole afternoon, were covered with the holiday
folks. Suddenly, about six o'clock, a few slight
dark clouds began to overshadow the sky, parti-
cularly towards the north. Of course, a regular
sauce qui putt ensued, and the fashionable pro-
menades were soon cleared. This cloudiness of the
air was accompanied by a warm and very gentle
wind; after which not a breath of air stirred, as though
the elements were taking a few minutes repose in order to
be able to burst forth with greater violence; as, in a few
minutes, flash after flash of the most vivid forked lightning
shone forth in rapid succession, followed by loud peels of
thunder. At this moment the view on the sea was awfully
grand; the lightning was flitting about here and there, and
might be compared in its movements to fiery snakes twist-
ing and writhing as if they were in agony. In a few
minutes a shower, not of hail-stones, but of pieces of ice,
came down with the greatest violence, striking on the roofs
of the low houSes, and rebounding with great force against
the windows of their opposite neighbours; in fact, they fell
with such power as to cut holes in the centre of the glass
similar to a bullet. Several of these pieces of ice were
picked up from the fluor of the lower rooms, and on
examining them they appeared to be all of the same
form, being smooth and flat at the bottom (as if they
had been rubbed against some hard substance in order
to polish them), and round, not unlike a water caraffe,
varying in weight from one to three ounces. I waft
shown one specimen of a piece of ice, which was
then as large as a small egg, although the indi-
vidual had brought it in his warm hand from the
railway station, where he had picked it up, being a
good five minutes' walk from the place where I was
examining the ice ball. I fear to-morrow's post will
bring with it sad tidings of the damage done in the
country. About -half-past eight the thunder, lightning,
and rain recommenced, and continued with great vio-
lence, about twenty minutes after which the moon rose
in all her majestic splendour, and at present the air is
soft, the sky clear and starlight, and no one would ever
suppose that such an awful storm had just been wit-
nessed, which was of thirty minutes' duration.
THE NEW FORTIFICATIONS AT SHEERNESS.—These
extensive works, together with the repair and heighten-
ing of the old fortifications, are now complete, and the
guns are all mounted, the last gun having been hoisted
on to the carriage last week. The entire line of fortifi-
cations is one mile and a quarter, and the number of
guns 118, some of which are of a most extraordinary
large size, weighing from 80 to 90 cwt. At several
places along the line nearest to the sea the battery con-
sists of very thick brickwork, and these parts are called
the musketry batteries, there being a great number of
apertures through
,the brickwork, designed for the
pointing of muskets. The whole lice is surrounded by
a deep moat, which is crossed at only one place, where
the fortifications cross the high road, and here there is
some outer work, consisting of a bastion and a raveline,
and a second moat, and there are (also two drawbridges
and two pairs of strong gates. A concrete foundation
had been laid down for the erection of new barracks, and
piles are now being ,driven for the erection of several
powder magazines.— Canterbury Journal.
GERMAN HOSPlTAL.—Yesterday, at noon, a fancy
fair, for the benefit of the above- named institution,
was opened in the spacious grounds connected with
the establishment in the Layton-road, Dalston. The
fair will continue until Saturday evening. On Wed-
nesday their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess
of Cambridge visited the Hospital, and made an ex-
ceedingly handsome present in aid of the funds of the
charity.

• MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,500
bales. There were 1,000 bales taken for export. The
market was heavy. In prices very little alteration oc-
curred. A good business was done in Railway Shares,
at previous rates, but stock was scarcer.
In the political accounts both from France and Ger-
many there is a comparative lull to-day; but the mer-
cantile letters received from Hamburgh hold out no hope
of a speedy adjustment of the Danish question.
As the; Swedes are preparing more vigorously to
sccond the Danes, and as the Assembly at
Frankfort must come to the determination either to pro-
secute the war on a larger scale, or to abate at once some
of its pretensions, it is not improbable that we shall hear
ere long of something important. At Copenhagen the
condemnation of the captured vessels proceeded without
further delay. Some few cases of release are mentioned,
and respect had been paid to neutral property, but
the blow is a severe one for German commerce, palliate
it as we may.
The New York liner Devonshire sailed to-day with 73
cabin and 150 steerage passengers ; she has also 350 tons
of rails, and a larger quantity of other freight than usual.
We hope, as there are doubts of our receiving many
orders for the " fall " trade, that all parties may be
• ted and that other vessels will take
agreeably disappoin,
fuller cargoes than was anticipated.
The Corn Market is rather firm to-day, except for
oats and barley.
The Bulwer affair is still regarded with great interest
and some misgiving in quarters connected with Spain.
There is expected to be a change of Ministry at Madrid,
lowering by . .1.2

and even then the arrangement of the misunderstand-
ing will have to be delicately conducted.
