EDINBURGHSHIRE.

The election of a member for Mid-Lothian took
place at Edinburgh on Wednesday. There was no
opposition to the re-election of the Earl of Dalkeith,
who was nominated by Sir James G. Baird, and
seconded by Mr. Davidson.
The Earl of DALKEITH, in returning thanks, said
he voted, as they were all aware, in support of Lord
Derby's bill, on the ground that he thought there
were those who might safely be intrusted with the
franchise who did not at present enjoy it. He could
not have supported Lord John Russell's resolution,
because he felt convinced that it was brought for-
ward on mere party and factious grounds. It was
well known at the time that the principle Lord
John sought to embody in his resolution might
have been carried by an overwhelming majority if
the bill had been brought into committee, and he
thought that if Lord John Russell had been sincere
in his desire for Reform, he would haveTsupported
the bill brought forward by Lord Derby's Govern-
ment. He (Lord Dalkeith) could only say he would
be willing to consider in as full and conscientious a
manner as he could any consistent measure which
might be brought forward for the extension of the
suffrage. With regard to the continental war, he
hoped that England would occupy a neutral posi-
tion, but that it would also be a strong and dignified
position.

ROXBURGHSHIRE.
The nomination and election for this county took
place on Wednesday, Sir William Scott (Liberal)
being the only candidate.
Sir W. SCOTT said he considered the present dis-
solution unwise and unjustifiable. He believed that
a satisfactory measure of reform could only be car-
ried out by those who had all along been reformers
from conviction. There was scarcely a clause in the
late Reform Bill which was not open to objection.
If returned to Parliament, he (Sir William) would
have great pleasure in supporting the Reform Bill
sketched by Lord John Russell, which included a
£6 borough franchise. Though he was not in favour
of the ballot, there was no one more anxious than
himself to protect the voter from intimidation, and
it would be necessary to frame some measure so as to
afford him due protection. Sir William next alluded
to the war which had broken out on the Continent,
and was of opinion that this country ought not to
embroil herself on either side. Lord Derby's plan
of an armed neutrality would not do—the country
must declare for non-intervention. At the same time
our armaments ought to be in a proper condition,
and we should be prepared for the worst.

HART'S PATENT ECONOMISING GAS
BURNER, the great desideratum of the age to all con-
sumers of Gas. By Its use the objections to the introduction
of Gas into private dwellings are removed, inasmuch as every
particle of gas, on reaching the orifice of the burner, is fairly
consumed, and thus the diffusion of those noxious vapours so
injurious to health, and destructive to works of art, bindings
of books, &c., is entirely prevented.
The burner can be fitted by the most inexperienced hand to
any chandelier or bracket.
May be had at the Depot, 69, Fleet-street, E.C., price Two
Shillings each : one sent on receipt of 30 postage stamps.

THE RATE OF DISCOUNT.

An advance of one per cent. in the rate of dis-
count was resolved upon by the Bank Court yes-
terday, in addition to that of like amount which
took place last Thursday. The charge, therefore,
is now 41 per cent.
This measure is a result merely of the move-
ments of the public. There is no excessive
pressure from any immediate wants on the part
•
of the mercantile body, but every one is properly
anxious to provide against contingencies. For two
or three months past it has been plain that the
enormous outlay consequent on the general arming
of Europe would be attended by an absorption of
specie that must cause a continued increase in the
value of capital, and few therefore can have been
taken by surprise, although the actual commence-
ment of hostilities has slightly accelerated the
alteration. The drain of gold for the Continent
may go on for some time, but cannot extend
beyond a certain stage. There are but three ways
in which foreigners can get money from us. 1. By
withdrawing all balances we may at present hold
on their account. 2. By appealing for loans. 3.
By sending hither for sale all their disposable pro-
duce. The first of these processes has been in ope-
ration for some weeks, and will soon end; the
second, happily, is not likely to prove successful ;
the third would be a suicidal sacrifice,, and could
lead for ns to nothing but profit. Hence there is no
ground for particular apprehension in any of these
respects. Our own expenditure for defensive pur-
poses is likely to produce a greater effect, but the
extent to which it will be counteracted by the reten-
tion of those surplus means usually devoted in ordi-
nary times to distant investments is very great. We
have the light of recent experience to aid our conjec-
tures on the entire question. During the two months
preceding the declaration of war against Russia in
1854 the Bank lost about £1,600,000 of bullion.
In the succeeding two months they lost an
additional sum of £2,100,000, and from
that date up to nearly the end of the
contest there was no further serious reduction.
At the commencement of danger the rate of dis-
count had been promptly raised to 51 per cent.,
and if the Bank henceforth pursue a course equally
vigilant there will be every reason for confidence
in the commercial stability of the country.—Times'
City Article.

ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis.

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 bethe
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 of 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 safe 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. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

THE ELECTIONS.

The Ministry have gained many victories in the
electioneering contests, but none more signal or
satisfactory than those we record to-day. The
seats they have gained in yesterday's contests have
a value far beyond their mere influence in a
: they mark the confidence reposed by the
wealth and intelligence of England in the States-
men who now direct the policy of the country.
South Lancashire has thrown off the yoke of an
arrogant clique, and returned two gentlemen who
really represent its opinions. The nominees of the
Bright faction have been defeated in their own
head-quarters. The division of Lancashire, which
may fairly be called the capital of manufactures and
commerce, which includes within its limits Man-
chester and Liverpool, has declared its adhesion to
the Ministerial side, rejected Messrs. Cheetham
and Heywood, and placed two strong supporters of
Lord Derby at the head of the poll. Ministers
gain two seats by this change ; but, important
as that gain is, this declaration of the great
centres of manufactures and commerce in
favour of the Government is the great result of
the contest. We have another triumph to note in
South Essex. Mr. Watlington has beaten the
former member, Mr. Baker, by a large majority, in
spite of the extraordinary exertions of the friends
of the latter gentleman. Nor is the result of the
contest in Huntingdonshire, although making no
alteration in the strength of parties, uninteresting.
At the last election, Mr. Heathcote, the Liberal
candidate, who has been defeated by a majority of
some hundreds;ran Mr. Fellowes so close that the
Sheriff made a double return, and a committee of the
House of Commons had to award the seat. Lord
John Russell appeared on the stage to no purpose;
his nominee has been thoroughly beaten. We take
it as the first of a good, many rebuffs the noble lord
will meet with in his new campaign. The county
contests have begun well. We hope to tell as
favourable a story to-morrow ; meanwhile we leave
Whigs and Radicals to explain, as best they can, this
declaration of some of the largest constituencies of
the kingdom in favour of the present Government.—

TO THE TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SIX WORTHY
AND INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF TAUNTON,
➢IY HONOURED SUPPORTERS.

GENTLEMEN,—I deeply thank you for having
in my person, as a Ballot Candidate, so effectually pro-
claimed to your fellow-countrymen the existence of a large
amount of sterling principle and patriotism in the constitu-
ency of which you form so important a part.
With three formidable and influential opponents in the
field (one of them having the strong ties of something like
thirty years' representation, another a twelve years' connec-
tion)—with no canvass, no books, no solicitors, no committee,
no favours--with no machinery whatever but PaINCIPLE
and the POLL—well, indeed, may we exult at having num-
bered two hundred and fifty-six votes out of a voting consti-
tuency of about 700. We stand proudly alone in the country
for the noble example we have given.
Although defeated, it may be fairly questioned whether the
elected candidates are in so exalted a position as that in
which you have placed me. In my person you have redeemed
the damaged reputation of the constituency, and raised it to
an elevation which your countrymen will applaud, from one
end of the kingdom to the other.
Such defeat unerringly points to FUTURE VICTORY.
All honour to the Constituency of Taunton ! Who will talk
of its disfranchisement now?

Ever your grateful friend and neighbour,
WILLIAM BEADON.

Otterhead, 30th April, 1850.

It is well known that Mr. Labouchere's majority would
have been considerably larger had he been a supporter of the
Ballot. He was freely told on his canvass by many of his old
friends that they would have had much greater pleasure in
voting for him had he been in favour of that measure.

By comparison the figures of accidents and deaths
to bathers and. skaters in the Serpentine will stand
as below :

.. 32

612 accidents in 4,835,393 =1 in each 7,901

32 deaths in dittO

Sometimes eight or 10 bathers of a morning and
evening are rescued by the society's boatmen (three
of whom are always on duty), and as they only
suffer from cramp and can walk home, no account
is taken of them, although they would probably be
drowned did not the officers of the society watch
over them.

SUICIDES IN TIIE SERPENTINE.
Out of 283 cases of attempted suicide in the same
period, 192 were rescued by the society's boatmen,
and 91 were fatal, having been immersed too long
for resuscitation.
On some occasions during the skating season an
immense number of persons receive treatment from
the medical officers of the Society, in addition to the
aid always so readily afforded by the medical gen-
tlemen passing at the moment of the accident, who
also give their time and skill entirely free of charge.
On one occasion 102 persons were brought to the
marquee and had their wounded heads and faces
plastered and bandaged in one day, and in one week,
in the year 1855, 195 were medically treated for
concussions of the brain and severe wounds, and
five were temporarily relieved until taken to the
hospital with broken legs and arms.
The following table will give the total number
of skaters, accidents, and deaths in the various royal
parks and gardens in the abovenamed period.
Trusting that the statement I have made will
place the Royal Humane Society, and the good
achieved by it, in its true light before the public,
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of wheat on sale in the leading country
markets held on Saturday were somewhat on the increase.
For all kinds the demand ruled heavy, and prices had a
drooping tendency. In the value of spring corn and flour
very little change has taken place.
Most of the continental markets are firm for wheat as to
price, but the business doing in it is only moderate. Spring
corn has undergone very little change. In the United
States prices continue to rule high.
The arrivals of home-grown produce up to our market
last week were moderate. From abroad the imports were
rather limited for the time of the year—viz., 5,051 qrs. of
wheat, 3,900 barley, 34,514 oats, 2,307 beans, 2,604 peas,
27,790 linseed, 11,454 rapeseed, 40 sundry seeds, and 150
sacks of flour. _ _

Fresh up to-day, tho arrivals of English wheat, coast-
wise and by land-carriage, were only moderate, and the
show of samples was consequently rather limited. Fine
samples of both old and new wheat, which were very scarce,
were disposed of at about last Monday's currency ; but low
and damp qualities moved off heavily, at a further decline
in the quotations of from is to 2s per quarter, at which de-
cline sales progressed with difficulty.
We were tolerably well, but not to say heavily, supplied
with foreign wheat. Good and fine samples sold on former
terms ; but other kinds were very dull, and drooping in
price.
Floating cargoes of grain commanded very little attention.
The few fine samples of barley in the market realised
very full prices. All other kinds were dull, but not cheaper.
There was a slow inquiry for malt, at last week's currency.
We had a fair demand for oats, and prices generally
were well supported.
Beans were firm in price, but the demand for them was
by no means active.
In peas a moderate business was transacted at full
quotations.
The flour trade was heavy, 'and country marks were
rather cheaper.

looking fellows at a short distance beyond him.
Their appearance and manners at once excited him
attention, and he determined to be prepared for
them. As he neared them, he observed that
they had divided, and so placed themselves that
two would be on one side of him and one on the
other ; and he also observed that one of the two
took a position a little in advance of his com-
panions, and that they all three were preparing
for simultaneous action. The driver carried a
heavily-loaded whip, and twisted the thong of it
tightly round his left arm, for he was left-handed.
This latter circumstance, no doubt, greatly favoured
the necessity of his defence ; for,,as the foremost
fellow made a spring at his right arm, he dealt him
a heavy blow on the forehead with the loaded end
of his whip. The blow was so well aimed that the
robber reeled and fell before his companions mulct
succeed in their attempt to grasp the horse's head.
The driver urged on his horse, and the animal
sprang forward and broke from the fellows, the
shaft knocking one of them over. The driver gal-
loped on, and made for Bridgend, where :L gentle-
man named Saddler was waiting his arrival. Mr.

WOOL MARKET.

The public sales of colonial wool have been brought to
a close. During their progress about 93,000 bales were
offered and disposed of at an advance of from Id to 2d per
lb. By private contract very little business is doing in
any kind of wool, and English qualities are offering on
lower terms. Last week's imports were 1,822 bales from

Algoa Bay, 502 from Port Philip, and 585 from Sydney.

THE AMERICAN PRESIDENCY.

On the subject of the next presidential election
and the political prospects, the New York Herald
of the 23d ult. says :
" The organisation of the new House of Repre-
sentatives in December next will involve a most ex-
traordinary conflict of sections, parties,and factions
in reference to the presidential succession. It will
be the opening battle of the campaign, and its re-
sults will go very far to determide the organisation
of parties and their relative strength in the general
November election of 1860. The following table
exhibits the strength of the Republicans, Demo-
crats, anti-Lecompton Democrats, and Southern
opposition factions respectively, in the elections
which have been made to this new Congress :

The _Herald continues :
" Thus the Republicans will lack six of a ma-
jority, allowing thtm the full benefit of some four
or five North Americans elected by fusion arrange-
ments. The Republican managers, however, cal-
culate in the house organisation upon the cordial
co-operation of such anti-Lecomptenites as Clarke
and Haskin, of New York ; Adrain, of New Jersey ;
and Hickman, of Pennsylvania. With the office
of house clerk to Forney, and the printing to some
such firm as Blair and Rive, it is probable that the
Republicans may secure their Speaker."
