FEARFUL STEAM ACCIDFNT.

PLYMOUTH, TUESDAY EVENING.
An accident of a very alarming character occurred
at 1 o'clock this afternoon in the Sound, on board
her Majesty's screw steamsloop Pioneer, Comman-
der Charles H. May, and r orders for the West
Coast of Africa. She had some slight defects to
make good, and was getting up steam for the pur-
pose of proceeding into Hamoaze, when the main
steam pipe burst close to the communication. John
Dunn, leading stoker, was on the point of opening
the communication-valve, and he suffered severely ;
William Bone, engineer in charge, Charles Piller,
third engineer, John Oliver, third engineer, John
Dunn, leading stoker, Charles Devine, stoker, Jas.
Murphy, stoker, and James Rennison, second class
boy, unfortunately rushed aft, where the steam was
most dense, and were, of course, much scalded,
especially, in their faces. Mr. Oliver's sight is af-
fected. Mr. J. A. Leicester, second class engineer,
prudently shut off the communication. He escaped
uninjured.
The ship was speedily enveloped in steam, but as
there was a smart south-west breeze, its effects were
most detrimental att. The looking glasses in the
captain's cabin were shivered, and kis boots shri-
velled. Boats from the ships of war, with their
surgeons and assistant-surgeons, were soon along-
side, and the steam tender Confiance conveyed the
worst cases (seven) to the Royal William Victual-
ling-yard, whence they were taken in cots to the
naval hospital. The Pioneer was afterwards sent
into Hamoaze. _

TUESDAY, 10 P.M.

By inquiries at the Royal Naval Hospital it has
been ascertained that Dunn is in a very precarious
state, and that Mr. Bone is suffering severely; the
others are not in great danger. Commander Reilly
is in command of the Pioneer, and not Captain
May.

THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.—Every
person having an interest in domestic or farm animals
should obtain a supply of this celebrated and economical
food, which will prove invaluable during the approaching
season. For keeping horses in good condition it is unequal-
led. Pigs fatten with surprising rapidity upon it, and their
flesh increases in flavour and value. Cowkeepers will find
great advantage in the increased quantity and improved qua-
lity of the milk during its use. All animals are benefited by
it. A pamphlet on this interesting subject, accompanied by
Testimonials from the principal Nobility, Gentry, and Agri-
culturists, forwarded on application. In casks containing
148 feeds (measures enclosed), price 505., carriage paid to any
Railway Station in the United Kingdom. Post-office orders

PRESENTATION TO CAPTAIN SCIIOMBERG, R.N.
—Some few months since, when Capt. Schomberg
R.N., who had been for several years Government
emigration superintendent at Liverpool, was pro-
moted to the command of her Majesty's ship
Aboukir (91), it was determined that a suitable
testimonial should be presented to him, expres-
sive of the feelings and satisfaction of the mer-
chants of Liverpool for the manner in which he had
fulfilled his onerous duties. In a short time the
sum of £4OO was collected, and yesterday (Monday)
the testimonial was presented at the office of
Messrs. Gibbs, Bright, and Co. The presentation
was made by Charles Turner, Esq., chairman of the
Mersey Docks and Harbour Board, who in fitting
terms referred to the general satisfaction given by
Capta'n Schomberg in fulfilling the duties of
his office. Captain Schomberg feelingly replied.
The testimonial comprised a purse, containing a
cheque for £4OO, a silver salver, as well as an ad-
dress suitably engrossed and elegantly framed.

the result of this debate ? The right hon. gentleman (Mr.
Disraeli) had expressed a hope that he would be satisfied
with the ample discussion which had taken. place. But his
motion had resulted in more than this. The Foreign
Secretary had admitted that as regarded the details of the
peace it was a truism, and his noble friend had also ad-
mitted, referring to the broader question, that he saw
rather more reasons against the conference than in favour
of it. (Hear, hear.) Now, believing it to be the wisest
policy of England not to interfere in this question, he
could not but think that the debate of that evening
would exercise some influence on the mind of the Govern-
ment respecting a conference. He (Lord Elcho) was,
therefore, satisfied with the result of the debate, and
felt inclined to bow to the advice of the right hon.
gentleman opposite not to persist in his motion. This was
the 9th of August, and it would put the country to great
inconvenience if so close upon the 12th there was to be a
change of Government. (Laughter.) It was not his wish
in pressing the motion to exhibit any hostility towards the
Government. He accepted, therefore, the amendment of his
hon. friend, whose speech as well as his motion he was
willing to accept.
The motion, tberefore, was not put.
CONSOLIDATED FUND (APPROPRIATION)
BILL.
This bill passed through committee.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of.
The house adjourned at a little before 3 o'clock.

ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE IN HEALTH AND
DISEASE.

Just Published, price is., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps,
QECUND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS
FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special
perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress-
ing.; ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical
Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO-
GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus-
ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated
from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com-
piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi-
tioner of twenty years' standing.
Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which
commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with
the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious
indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and
Nervous energies are identical 4 hence, that when the latter
fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre-
gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili-
tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a
condition little short of total prostration, then by the action
of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical
treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta-
blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of
SECOND LIFE.

THE TREATMENT of STRICTURES of the
URETHRA ; showing why they so often appear In-
curable, when in reality they might be removed by the most
simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY,

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the

Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.
