7HE TRICE OF GOLD

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 4 per mille prem.,
and the short exchange on London is 25.426 per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
175. 106 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about 6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4206 per mark,
and the short exchange on London is 13.86 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg.
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 1676 to 1071 per cent., which, when compared
with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the
exchange 13 against England, But, after making allowance
for loss of interest and charges of transport, the present
price leaves no profit on sending gold to the United States.

THE ARMI

His Royal Highness the General Commanding-
in-Chief visited the camp at Aldershott on Friday,
accompanied by Major-Gen. Sir J. Yorke Scarlett,
Adjt.-General, Major-Gen. Sir R. Airey, Quarter-
master-General, &c. His Royal Highness inspected
the division, which was drawn up in lines of brigades
on the common near the club-house, under the com-
mand of Lieut.-Gen. Sir J. L. Pennefather. The
cavalry brigade was commanded by Col. Devereux,
Royal Horse Artillery; the Ist brigade by Colonel
Haines, Ist battalion, Bth; the 2d brigade, by
Brigadier-Gen. Brown; and the 3d, by Brigadier-
Gen. Russell. After having been inspected, the
division was formed in battle array to the west-
ward, and a series of field-day movements took
place, his Royal Highness returning to town early
in the afternoon.

On Saturday detachments of the 20th, 52d Light
Infantry, and 83d Regiments, from the depot batta-
lions at Chatham, left that garrison under the com-
mand of Capt. G. G. G. Munro and Lieut. G, D.
Wahab, 20th Regiment, and proceeded to East-
bourne to undergo a course of instruction in long-
range rifle firing previously to embarking for
India.

Yesterday a third detachment of the sth Dragoon
Guards, accompanied by Capt. T. L. Hampton and
Cornet T. Y. Benyon, arrived in Colchester on their
way to Ipswich, where two other troops arrived on
Saturday. Three troops, with the headquarters,
have arrived at Norwich, and two other troops have
proceeded to Northampton.
The volunteering for the 36th Regiment, which
is about proceeding to Canada, as well as for the
64th Regiment, just returned from India, has pro-
ceeded so satisfactorily at Chatham that, although
the announcement was only made a few days since,
no less than 150 soldiers have offered themselves

ITALY.

The following is the text of the proclamation
issued by Count Pettinengo at Palermo, on his
assuming the functions of Lieutenant General of

Sicily :

"Italians of Sicily !—Our magnanimous• King
Victor Emmanuel has chosen me for his Lieutenant
in these noble provinces, and I, however mistrust-
ful of my ability, have nevertheless accepted this
important charge out of devotedness to.the coun-
try. Still, I feel encouraged on reflecting that
my illustrious and wise predecessor, while he
leaves among you so honourable a name, and
such lasting sympathies, may, by his pre-
sence in the Royal council, afford me efficacious
assistance. I am still more animated by the thought
that I have to govern a people whose hatred for
tyranny is of as ancient date as their noble senti-
ments of patriotism—a people who, not long ago,
guided by the heroic hand of Garibaldi, broke their
chains, and on becoming free, with the unanimous
consent of all liberal opinions, united itself to
the other Italian provinces which were already
free, under the Constitutional sceptre of King
Victor Emmanuel. Sicilians, I am proud of being
amongst you, who, amid such vicissitudes of
men and things, have so powerfully co-operated
with wisdom and order towards the wonderful
resurrection of Italy. Let us be united, and we
shall succeed. As to myself, who belong to no
party, I see in all Liberals, without distinction, the
immense majority of a single great people, the most
noble and deserving part of the Italian nation. I
am happy to co-operate towards your prosperity.
Much still remains to be done for trade and manu-
factures, roads, great public works, the instruction
of the people, and regular administration. The
efforts of the Government are, however, of little
avail if they are not seconded by private enterprise.
To labour for you, but also with you—that alone
can afford me hopes of good success, and of obtain-
ing the satisfaction of the King and the eonfidence
of the Sicilians• "tDi PETTINENGO.

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA ; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
" This work is the produdffon 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
e•reat 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 valuab_
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.

COURT OF DIVORCE.

(Before the Lord Ordinary, Mr. Justice 'Willem, and Mr.
Baron Martin.)
NURSEY V. NURSE? AND TUCKER.

This part-heard case was resumed this morning. On a
former occasion it had been postponed owing to the evidence
with respect to the adultery of Mrs. Nursey not being suffi-
ciently strong, and also for the purpose of allowing the
petitioner the opportunity of procuring witnesses to dig-
prove the assertion of the respondent that she had been
treated with neglect.

Louisa Thomas—l am the wife of a painter, and reside
in King-street, New-cut, Lambeth. I know both Mr.
and Mrs, Nursey; I was in their service as servant in the
years 18.56-7. Mrs. Nursey used to go out between three
and four in the afternoon and generally returned home
about eleven or twelve at night. Mr. Nursey used to find
fault with her for doing so. lie used to say he did not like
her goings on. She used to say that she did not care about
that. They frequently quarrelled. She always refused to
stay at home when he wished her.

Mr. Chapman (petitioner's counsel)—Used Mr. Nursey
to remonstrate with his wife about ber bad conduct ?
Witness—No, sir. - (Laughter.)
Counsel—Well, was he pleased with what she did?

Witness—No, sir. (Laughter.)
Counsel—Well, if he neither remonstrated about her
conduct, and was not pleased with it, what used he to do,?

Witness—He used to ask her where she had been to.
She said she didn't chose to tell him; and if he did not
like it he could go. I have seen her throw a jug and a
glass at Mr. Nursey's head. I once saw her take up a
knife to him and say she would stab him. ➢ir. Nursey
used to say he could not put up with her bad temper and
misconduct.

Counsel—How used Mr. Nursey to treat his wife
Witness—As well as a wife ought to be treated.
The Judge Ordinary—That all depends upon a wife's
conduct. Was he kind to her ?

Witness—Oh, yes ; very. Mr. Nursey left Mrs. Nursey
in 1657. She then took lodgings in Henrietta-street,
Brunswick-square. Mr. Tucker cams there. I remained
in the service of Mrs. Nursey. In a short time Mr. Tucker
came and lived with Mrs. Nursey as her husband. They
continued to do so up to the time I left them. This was
in March, 1858. I saw them in 1860. They found out
where I was living, and told me the divorce case was
coming on, and if they found me out they would compel
me to give evidence.

The Judge Ordinary—During all the time you remained
with Mrs. Nursey, how did she live ?

Witness—Well, my lord, rather gay. (Laughter.)
The Judge Ordinary—What do you mean by that ?
Witness—Well, she used to put on her best clothes.
The Judge Ordinary—Her husband, I suppose, used to
see her in them.
Witness—Oh yes, my lord.

Mr. Webb, an engineering draughtsman, next gave his
evidence. He stated that he was well acquaintad with
Mr. Nursey. He was a very regular and industrious man.
The only time he ever knew him to be out late at night was
when he was occupied at work.

The Judge Ordinary said the court was perfectly satis-
fied with the evidence, both with respect to the adultery
and the absence of collusion on the part of the husband.
Rule nisi granted accordingly.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

STEALING PAROCHIAL SCHOOLROOM CLOCKL—John
Cutmore, a labouring man, living at a model lodging-house
in the Borough, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt, by the
Rev. Mr. Stafford Bushnell, curate of St. Andrews, Wells-
street, with stealing two time-pieces of the value of about
£7, the property of Dr. John Lang, and others, the church-
wardens of St. Andrews, Well-street.

The Rev. Stafford Bushnell said that on Wednesday
afternoon a time-piece was missed from the room above the
boys' schoolroom, at 114, Groat Tichfield-street, and on the
following evening (yesterday) he was informed that the
time-piece from the schoolroom was also missed, and he
afterwards found that it had been placed behind the room
door covered over with a coat ready for removal. He sent
for a constable, who, finding the prisoner on the premises,
took him into custody. The clock was the property of the
churchwardens.

Michael Hayes, E Division, said he found the prisoner
coming from the lower part of the house, and on asking
what business he had there, he said he was looking for his
wife, who had taken his furniture away. On searching
him he found a duplicate relating to the time-piece which
had been stolen on Wednesday.

Thomas Fowler, assistant to Mr. Dolree, pawnbroker of
Charlotte-street, produced a time-piece pledged by the
prisoner.

The time •pisces were identified by the Rev. Mr. Bushnell,
and the coat wrapped round one of them by Mr. Thomas
Harber, the schoolmaster, as his property.

Committed for trial.

THE WEATHER AND THE P4RNS•

1 The weather changed yesterdays and there seems
every probability that the frost has ended for the
present season, for the thermometer at the Royal
Humane Society's receiving-house at Hyde Park,
which on Wednesday was 25 deg., rose at nine
o'clock yesterday morning to 34, being a rise of
9 deg. from the previous day at the same hour.
At noon the mercury stood at 36 deg,, g being 4 deg;
freezing-point.
above Last night the glass pointed
1 at 35, being 3 deg. above freezing-point, and the
' barometer during the day Was 30.34 deg., whereas
the previous day it [indexed 30.21 deg. The wind
was north-east. The weather was returned in the
different parks as being foggy and cloudy.
There were immense sheets of Water upon the
ice in the different parks, and the footpaths
were
crowded with spectators.

A number of fireworks were discharged last night
at the Serpentine, not only upon the ice but among
the crowds on the footpaths.
The favourable change of weather in the eastern
counties which took place towards the close of the
week was followed by a fall of snow on Sunday and
a return of temperature almost equal to the former
intensity of frost. This continued without any im-
provement until Wednesday evening, when a slight
thaw commenced, and continued until yesterday
afternoon ; but, as the wind still blew from the
north there was every probability of a return of the
frost in the evening. The business of the several
ports is entirely suspended, and most of the rivers
are so blocked up as to enable persons to cross from
side to side and completely to stop all navigation.
The number of unemployed persons wandering
about the streets has increased to a painful extent,
and, notwithstanding the expenditure of many
hundred pounds in the:purchase of bread, soup and
coals, almost unexampled distress prevails.
The weather has become less severe at Ports-
mouth, and it thawed slightly all yesterday, bud
the wind was too far in the northward to allow.
the thaw to make much progress. The
strong
winds of the three previous days had subsided.
ng
ided
There was a good deal of fog yesterday.

IMPUDENT ROBBERY.—John Thomas, aged 17, of No.
5, Nightingale-lane, Limehouse, and described as a thief,
was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing two
pots of jam, value ls. 6d., from inside the shop of Mr. John
Charles Winn, No. 23, Archor-terrace, East India-road,
Limehouse.

Frederick Williamson, errand boy to Mr. Stewart, next
door to Mr. Winn, said that last night about 6 o'clock, the
prisoner opened Mr. Winn's shop door, and put his hand
round the door post and took two jars of jam from the win..
dow, and put thorn under his coat and walkod away with
them. There was another man with the prisoner, and he
gave one of the jars to him. He informed Mr. Winn of the
robbery, and the prisoner was taken into custody. The
other man run away.

The prisoner pleaded guilty, and a police constable said
he had been in custody several times.
Mr. Selfe sentenced the prisoner to throe months' impri-
sonment and hard labour.

DISTRESSING SUICIDE IN ST. PANCRAS.--•Yes-
terday morning self-destruction was committed by Mr.
John Evan Griffiths, the proprietor of a long-established
business of silversmith and pawnbroker, in 0 ssulston-street,
Somers's-town. It appears that the unfortunate gentleman,
who is about 38 years of age, has for some time 'past been
suffering from an affection of the liver, on account of which
he had been under the treatment of Dr. Chalk, of Maryle •
boa e, and which had the effect of rendering him exceedingly
nervous and low-spirited. Some few days since, on return--
ing with his gig from the railway station, Mr. Griffiths
drove through the City, but on arriving in Calthorpe- street,
where there was but little light, a man, who is said to
have been crossing the road at the time, and attempted
to pass directly under the horse's head, was knocked
down, and so seriously injured that he was conveyed t•
the Royal Free Hospital, where ho expired on Monday.
Since this event the depression of spirits of the deceased
increased to a perfect melancholy, which appeared to have
been materially augmented from the fact that the summon-
ing officer waited upon him at a late hour on Wednesday
night, and remained some time in conversation with him
upon the subject of the inquest to be held on the unfortu-
nate man to• day. Mr. Griffiths, on retiring to rest, com-
plained of being unwell. Yesterday morning, about eight
o'clock, when one of his employees entered hie room as usual
for some keys, he discovered his master suspended by the
neck, by means of a cord, to the bedpost. The body was
at once cut down, and Dr. Magennis, of Euston-road, was
sent for. Bleeding and other remedies were resorted to, as
the body was still warm, but without effect. Mr. Grif-
fiths was highly respected throughout the neighbourhood
for his liberality and good feeling to his tenants and neigh-
bours. He was a vestryman of St. Pancras, and in that
capacity was also much esteemed,

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
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.
