Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. '

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices or unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a sale guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickfbrd ;
but the moderate price at which the brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

THE ALLEGED MURDER AT NEW CALABAR.—
John M'lntyre, the sailor who was brought up on Thurs-
day at the Liverpool police court, charged with the murder
of a fellom -seaman named John Maxwell, was again brought
before Mr. Mansfield yesterday. It appeared from the evi-
dence that there had been a quarrel between M'lntyre and
Maxwell, and that Maxwell in the first instance had been the
aggressor, and had knocked the prisoner once or twice down
on the deck. Wlntyre, in order to escape the violence of
the deceased, ran below ; the deceased followed ; and it was
orris Maxwell was endeavouring still further to punish the
poner that the latter drew a knife and stabbed the de-
ceased three times in the breast. He died almost imme-
diately. For the defence it was argued that the prisoner
only used the knife in self. defence ; and as for the charge of
murder, it could not be sustained. The prisoner was com-
mitted n a charge of manslaughter, and the magistrate ob-
served that, though it was his duty to send the case for
trial, it was very doubtful whether a jury would convict the
prisoner *i the evidence adduced.

tion are desirous of submitting to the attention of the British
public the following "Facts and Opinions,,' tending to Drove
the SCriptural lawfulness of marriage with a deceased wife's

" The Bible, the Bible only, is the religion' of Protestants.
Whatsoever else they believe beside it, and the plain irrefra-
gable, indubitable consequences of it, well may they hold ifaS
a matter of opinion. I will take no man's liberty of judgment
from him; neither shall any man take mine from me."—
Chillingworth.
" Bad laws are the worst sort of tyranny. In such a coun-
try as this, they are of all bad things the worst—worse by
far than anywhere else ; and they derive a peculiar malignity
from the wisdom and soundness of the rest of our institu-
tions."—Burke.

DEATH OF A CHILD FROM INTOXICATION.--An
inquest was held at Cheddar last week on the body of Frank
Wall, aged nine years. Deceased, who was employed in a
hay-field, had been sent for a gallon of cider, and was
absent for three hours. On his return it, appeared that
nearly three quarts of the cider had been drunk by the de-
ceased. He was in a fearful state of intoxication. He was
allowed to remain in the field till nearly 10 o'clock at night,
when one of the witnesses, a labouring man, took him
home. He died a few hours afterwards from apoplexy,
arising from immersion in cold water, while under the in-
fluence of liquor.—Sherborne Journal.
A MODEL MOTHER.—At the Salford Town Hall,
on Tuesday, a woman named Eliza Ann Seddon, was
charged with having neglected her infant child. A police
officer stated that about three o'clock on Monday afternoon,
he was called into a cellar in Dale-street, when he saw the
child, about two years old, lying quite naked on a dirty
ma' tress in a very filthy state, and looking extremely thin
and much neglected. He went in search of the mother,
and found her half tipsy in Clowes-street Ellen M‘Dermott
said she was attracted to the prisoner's cellar by some chil-
dren, who told her that a child was lying there naked and
in want. On entering it she found the child described by
the last witness. While she si'as in the cellar the prisoner
came in and knocked her down. She had seen the pri-
soner take up the child by the leg and exclaim " Die, you
if it was not for you I could be married." The child
was produced •in court, and it appeared much emaciated.
The prisoner was cotamitted to pram for three months.

THAMES.

SUICIDE OF JOHN BARDOE, THE LIBERATED SLAVE,—
This morning was appointed for the re •examination of Oude
Ajur, the liberated African slave, better known as John
Bardoe, for wounding four Asiatic seamen in the Strangers'
Home, West India-road, Limehouse, to which place he was
removed after his trial, and acquitted on a charge of assault-
ing and wounding a city police-constable named Oliver
on the roof of a house in the Minories. The witnesses,
interpreters, and others were in attendance on the magistrate.
The Court was filled -with persons anxious to hear the
proceedings. At 12 o'clock the police van arrived
with the prisoners under remand, but without
Bardoe, and soon afterwards Sergeant Walker, who
has charge of the van, announced that the un-
fortunate creature had put an end to his existence by
hanging himself in his cell in the Clerkenwell House of
Detention. This morning, at two o'clock, the night watch-
man in the prison while going his rounds called to the
prisoner, and he answered him. Two hours afterwards the
same watchman again called to him, and no answer being
returned he opened the door of the cell and found the un-
fortunate man quite dead. The manner in which the
deceased hung himself did not transpire, but it is
believed he strangled himself with his handkerchief.
There is no doubt that his misfortune's, his fear of
being sent into slavery again, and the severe
wounds he received in the terrible conflict with
the city police constable, preyed upon his mind and caused
him to commit suicide.

At half-past 12 o'clock Lieut.-Colonel H. Marsh Hughes,
the Secretary of the Sailors' Home, addressed the magis-
trate, and said the black man, Bardoe, was dead. He had
committed suicide.

COUNTRY MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL-JULY 15.

Our market was exceedingly dull this morning, and only
a small number of buyers made their appearance. The quo-
tations may be noted the same as this day week for both
wheat and flour. Indian corn attracted a fair inquiry,
and held firmly. All other kinds scarcely looked at.
London, England, 1859-07-16

Mr. Yardley—Has he indeed. When did that occur ?

Lieutenant-Colonel Hughes—This morning., sir, he tore
his sheet to pieces and hung himself.
Sergeant Mather, of the police van, here said that the
Governor of the Clerkenwell House of Detention informed
him the poor fellow had strangled himself at an early hour
this morning.

Mr. Yardley said this -was a most lamentable end to a
most lamentable 'affair. No one in this country was to blame
but the person who brought the deceased, and made a
slave of him; and who intended to treat him as a slave
again, was very much to blame.
Lieutenant-Colonel Hughes—It was a most disgraceful
transaction on the part of the foreigners. Can there be any
objection to my seeing the body of the deceased ? I under-
stand there are some very remarkable marks on his person
which I am most anxious to see.
Mr. Yardley said that, from the kind manner in which
Lieutenant-Colonel Hughes behaved to the deceased, and
the great interest he had taken, and the humanity he had
evinced towards all destitute and friendless men of colour
who arrived in this country, there was no doubt his wishes
would be consulted by the authorities. He could see no
objection whatever to Lieut.-Colonel Hughes seeing the
body. The case, however, was out of his hands. The
man was dead, and the coroner and a jury would hold an
inquiry. He inquired how the wounded men were pro-
gressing.

Mr. Corner, a respectable surgeon, of Poplar, said he
had been in attendance on the wounded men daily, and
they were all doing well. Two were nearly recovered.
The other two were invalids at the time they were wounded,
and their recovery would, consequently, be slower.
Lieut.-Colonel Hughes—ls there any occasion for the
wounded men to attend here ?
Mr. Yardley—None at all. As far as I am concerned
there is an end of the matter.

TO •THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Siu,—The Committee of the Marriage Law Reform Associa-
tion are desirous of submitting to the attention of the British
public the following "Facts and Opinions," tending to Drove
the Scriptural lawfulness of marriage with a deceased wife's
sister, and the necessity of legalising such marriages in Eng-
land, in accordance with the law and practice of other Chris-
tian countries.

" The Bible, the Bible only, is the religion of Protestants.
Whatsoever else they believe beside It, and the plain irrefra-

from him ; neither shall any man take mine from me. '—
Chillingworth.
" Bad laws are the worst sort of tyranny. In such a coun-

THE ALLEGED MURDER AT NEW CALABAR.—
John M'lntyre, the sailor who was brought up on Thurs-
day at the Liverpool police court, charged with the murder
of a fellow-seaman named John Maxwell, was again brought
before Mr. Mansfield yesterday. It appeared from the evi-
dence that there had been a quarrel between M'lntyre and
Maxwell, and that Maxwell in the first instance had been the
aggressor, and had knocked the prisoner once or twice down
on the deck. M'lntyre, in order to escape the violence of
the deceased, ran below ; the deceased followed ; and it was
when Maxwell was endeavouring still further to punish the
prisoner that the latter drew a knife and stabbed the de-
ceased three times in the breast. He died almost imme-
diately. For the defence it was argued that the prisoner
only used the knife in self. defence ; and as for the charge of
murder, it could not be sustained. The prisoner was com-
mitted on a charge of manslaughter, and the magistrate ob-
served that, though
