NATIONAL CHORAL SOCIETY.—III con sequence
of the lamented death of H.R.H. the Prince Consort,
the performance of " The Messiah," announced for Mon-
day evening next, is postponed to Monday, 30th inst.
The Moniteur announces that the rate of interest
on French Treasury bonds has been lowered to 31 per cent.
for short periods, 4 per cent, for six months to run, and 4}
for 12 months.

According to a paragraph now going the round of
the French papers, the heir to the imperial throne i■ a bril-
liant specimen of the forcing system of education. Al-
though only five years and a half old, he already speaks
four languages "fluently"—French, English, German, and
Italian. We wonder that his mother should not have
taught laiul her native tongue—Spanish.

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URET IIRA ; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By P. B. COURTENAY,

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitanintinnary for the

Cure of Strictures of tile 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 arc subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular.

—Pr. Culverwell has already established the reputation of
an ab7e physician ; he has now proved himself to be a worthy
ist
philanthropist, • in as far as he has established, in the heart
of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco-
very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice
of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established,

the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess
one of the best set of baths, at 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand,
which the country can produce; perfect in all its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinement,
which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur-
prising, while everything that taste or delicacy could desire
has been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of ',We

CAPTAIN WILKES.

A writer in a contemporary says,—Allusion has
already been made to certain " difficulties" which
occurred during Captain Wilkes' employment on
the United States Antarctic Exploring Expedition
—but, as it is probably not generally known that
he came into contact at that time with Sir James
Ross under circumstances which reflect little credit
on his character, it may be well to remind the pub-
lic of an almost forgotten episode in the career of
this most notorious officer in the Federal navy.
The facts in brief are as follows :—Captain (then
Lieutenant) Wilkes furnished to Sir James Ross in
1.841, at Hobart Town, a chart, on which he laid
down as the result of his discoveries the year before
a range of mountains, which were sought for in
vain by Sir James, and the supposed position of
which the Erebus and Terror actually sailed over,
and, to cover his mistake, he disingenuously charged
Sir James with having purposely confounded what
he had laid down with Balleny's Islands, five small
islands, 70 miles off.

The full particulars of the controversy which-en-
sued are to be found in Chapter IX. of " Sir James
Ross's Voyage to the Southern Seas," and are curi-
ously illustrative of a character which the English
nation, not to say the world in general, has peculiar
reasons for being interested in.
To a landsman it appeared, when reading the
chapter above-mentioned, that the views of Ameri-
can naval officers were not less loose 20 years ago
with respect to hydrography than they now are in
respect of international law, as it seems to have been
the practice in the expedition in question to insert
in their charts land " where every appearance de-
noted its existence," and not to mark only what
was actually determined to exist.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALLS'-Yr S TERDAY.

As might have been anticipated from the recent calamity
that has so unexpectedly befallen this country; and the
gloom that so generally pervades all classes of society, the
attendance here was very small. Scarcely 20 members
looked in, and but little or nothing was discussed beyond
the two prevailing topics.
Towards the close of the rooms some mention was made
of one or two animals for the Two Thousand, but specula-
tion was extremely limited. Old Calabar was inquired after,
and 4 to 1 was his highest offer ; but his supporters stood
out for half a point more, at which price we think he would
have found a host of friends. 100 to 15 was taken several
times about The Marquis, but the layers appeared anxious
to proceed, and had evidently the strongest party at the
close. 11 to 1 each was accepted about Alvediston and
Caterer, but only to small amounts.

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITII'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the ;rim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

" The aim of the author is to present a common-sense view
of the Causes, Nature, Consequences, and Treatment of this
Disease, as also to free these questions from the Professional
Fallacies, the Popular Delusionh, and the exaggerations of
Quackery by which they have hitherto been surrounded, to the
destruction of the health and happiness of thousands. These
objects are discussed in a common-sense and highly practical

TILE NAVY.

The Megrera, screw troopship, Commander Hen-
derson, sailed yesterday from Portsmouth for the
Channel Islands. She had been prevented sailing
the day previous owing to the violence of the
weather.

The Immortalite, 51, screw, Captain Hancock,
commenced the adjustment of her compasses in
Portsmouth Harbour yesterday.
The Cockatrice, new class gunboat, has been taken
into the steam basin at Portsmouth to fit for the
first-class steam reserve.

Letters received by our Portsmouth correspondent
from Madeira announce the arrival there of the
Ariel, 9, screw, Commander Alexander, on the 18th
December, all well. She had made the passage out
from Plymouth Sound under sail alone. During
the first six days of her passage she encountered
very boisterous weather ; gales from the N. W., W.,
and S.W., with the barometer down to 28.81. Part
of the head berthing and the bowports were washed
away by the heavy seas. The ship is reported to
have proved a good sailer and sea boat, stiff under
her canvass, and steered easily. the Charybdis
and Miranda, screws, arrived at Madeira on the
20th December. The Gorgon, 6, paddle, and the
Swift coal depot, both en route for the Capes were
also lying there at that date.

The screw steamship St. George, 91, Capt. the
Hon:F. Egerton, in Plymouth Sound, crossed royal
yards and ran up her blue peter yesterday morn-
ing, preparatory to sailing for Spithead.
The screw steam gunvessel Flying Fish, 6, Com-
mander Hope, having completed her lading of coal
in Hamoaze yesterday morning, is now at her
moorings.

The paddlewheel steam sloop Spiteful, Com-
mander Wilson, from Pembroke, where she towel
the coal depot Alarm, returned to Plymouth yester-
day. She brought back Commander Paul, of her
Majesty's Dockyard, Devonport, and the division of
riggers who took charge of the Alarm on the pas-
sage round.

The following appointments were made yester-
day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. T. T. Bullock, to
the Colussus ; Lieut. W. H. Heaton, to the Nar-
cissus; Daniel Pender, master, to the Hecate; W.
B. Dalby, surgeon, to the Narcissus ; J. C. Inglis,
surgeon, to the Ariadne ; and Martin Magill, assist.-
surgeon, to the Sanspareil.
