gun been thrown overboard in the storm,
t or the deck been strained and become leaky, we
might have allowed a gun to be taken, and have
caulked or repaired the deck ; but to make the
deck more fit for a fighting one, or to furnish ad-
ditional armament, is apparently aiding in the war.
We suppose that as the American representatives
here accept charge of the captured crew and make
provision for their return to New York, their act
will relieve us of all responsibility for permitting
their landing. Otherwise it would seem that as it
must have been a great convenience to the
Nashville to get rid of them, and as the charge
of them had nothing to do with " refitting,"
we might have been accused of aiding in
the warlike operations of the Nashville,
by relieving her of her troublesome and worse than
useless " prisoners of war." This would have
been, indeed, a refinement in legal quibbling, but
no quibbling is too absurd for United States antho-
rities if they can quibble England into the wrong.
Probably, however, Captain NELSON and his men
would have settled the case for themselves, if offered
by the privateer captain a landing on any friendly
coast. Perhaps the question, however, may be
raised whether the Nashville's entering the port
with prisoners of war, and disposing of them there
as best suited her convenience, may be placed by
the lawyers in the same line with actually bring-
ing a prize into port. It may be argued that if the
privateer had known that she could not get rid of
the captured ere', she would not have destroyed
the captured vessel, it might have been more con-
convenient to have left them on board of her.

It is perhaps this destruction of the fine ship, the
Harvey Birch, a vessel of 1,487 tons, American
measurement, and which had cost sbout £25,000 in
her construction, which will create the greatest dis-
gust. We do not deny its accordance with the laws
of war, or rather with the usages of war, but it was
to be hoped that Americans with their boasted civi-
lisation, would exhibit themselves rather in tho
light of ameliorators of barbarous usages than fresh
examples of them. Wanton destruction of valuable
and useful property is a disgrace to any cause ;
better have allowed the ship to remain for a derelict
than to have burnt and sunk a noble vessel from

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.

tween New York and Charleston. The Harvey
Birch is said to have been a remarkably fine full-
rigged ship of the same tonnage, quite new.
Everything appears very quiet on board the Con-
federate. The crew do not show at all, but now and
then an officer or two may be seen pacing the deck.
They do not appear to be at ease, and are very
reserved, particularly upon this affair, should they
be questioned. The vessel is armed with two rifled
cannon, but they are not visible to persons on shore.
The crew of the Harvey Birch are domiciled at the
Sailors' Home, opposite the docks. They are in a
highly excited state, and vow vengeance against the
officers and crew of the Nashville. Fearing that a
collision might take place and mischief result, the
mayor, Frederick Perkins, Esq., has ordered a
batch of the borough police to patrol the docks dur-
ing the night, in connection with the usual dock
policemen. The crew of the burnt ship describe the
officers of the Nashville as young and inexperienced
and their disgust is beyond expression at being
taken by such a set of " brats of boys," as they de-
scribe them. To use the expression of one of them,
he said " By --, if only half a dozen of us had been
loose, we would have cow hided the whole of the lot
over the stern, clean." A good joke is told of the
captain of the Nashville, who, it appears, belonged
to the American navy for 30 years before ho joined
the secessionists. In relating the capture of the ship
to a gentleman at Southampton he observed that he
felt bound to treat the captain and officers with every
attention and kindness—that he invited them daily
to his own table, and behaved with true hospitality
and courtesy ; " but," said he, "my morti-
fication was great when I sent them on shore to
find that they did not acknowledge my kindness by
even expressing their thanks."
One circumstance, forcibly illustrating the per-
fectly suicidal nature of the present unhappy out•
break, is this, that the owner of the burnt ship,
resident at New York, is said to be a man of strong
Southern tendencies.
The following statement Was taken by the quar-
antine officer at Southampton from the second mate
of the Harvey Birch :-

SIGHT and HEARING being sympathetically
connected, Messrs. SOLOMONS having a thorough
knowledge of the anatomy of the eye and ear, and, after
an experience and extensive practice, have it'll ented
an instrument for extreme cases of Deafness, called the
SOUND MAGNIFIER, Organic Vibrator, and Invisible
Voice Conductor. It fits into the earnot perceptible ; the un-
pleasant sensation of singing noises in the head is entirely
removed. It affords immediate relief to deaf persons, and
enables them to hear distinctly at church, .ec. They have
also constructed TINTED SPECTACLE LENSES of the
greatest transparent brilliancy. The advantage derived is
that vision impaired is pm served and strengthened ; very
aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the most
minute occupation ; can see with them of much less magnify-
ing power, and do not require the frequent chancres to more
powerful assistance. 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly.

It appears, however, that before the debate on
this document, the Chamber will discuss this
question of nationclities. The difficulties of
the Austrian Government consequently seem to
increase. The empire,instead of advancing towards
unity, is becoming mare and more divided, accord-
ing as t he representatives are called upon to express
their sentiments on the different points of M. de

THE PRICE OF GOLD

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 3 per mille prem.,
and the short exchange on London is 25.36 per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
175. Mid_ per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about 4-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
_ . _

By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 428 per mark,
and the short exchange on London is 13.8 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
-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 Kin to 108 per cent., which, when compared
with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the
exchange is against England. But, after making allowance
for loss of interest and charges of transport, the present
rate leaves no profit on sending gold to the United States.

nary knowledge possessed by the students ; using in the
junior " Smith's Manual of Equity Jurisprudence" as a
text-book ; and, in the senior, examining the principal
branches of equitable jurisdiction, with a frequent refereßce
to cases ; and also commencing Lord Redesdale's " Treatise

ITALY.

The journals of Naples announce the arrest of
Demata, the murderer of M. Mele, Inspector of
Police, This arrest was not effected without con-
siderable difficulty. It appears that three National
Guards, gentlemen of good family, had accidentally
become acquainted with the hiding-place of this
young monster (for he had committed his first murder
as early as the age of :3), and also with the watchword
he had given to his accomplices. The three persons
above-mentioned repaired to the place, and knocked
at the door, saying " Apri studente" (open the door,
student), which was file watchword they had learnt.
Demata opened acccrdingly, dressed in his shirt
and drawers, and with a cigar in his mouth ; but
on finding himself attacked he seized his revolver,
and fired six shots, only one of which, however,
produced some effect, slightly wounding one of the
aggressors. The others fired also, and wounded
Donato, in three plac2s—namely, in the neck, ab-
domen, and leg. Meanwhile, one of his accom-
plices, who lived in the same room with him, jumped
out of the window, and in doing so received such
severe injuries that he is stated to be in a desperate
state. Demata was at length mastered, and taken
to the police station, amid cries of "Death to the
assassin," uttered by the multitude that had as-
sembled.

that the mode of fastening on the plates was the
weak point in the structure, and the target was
then spared utter demolition. The angular principle
is so far proved good ; its practicability is another
question, and it is certainly defective as yet in the
method of joining and fixing on the plates. Still, we
regard a method so far successful as an advance to-
wards the perfection of iron armour against artillery
—and just now, when our wooden ships are being
made to carry heavy armour plates it is particularly
incumbent upon the Iron-plate Committee to sift
every source likely to afford a lighter and a less
expensive kind of armour. Above all, it is most
desirable that for these wooden ships which are only
waiting for their armour, a form of plates should be
found that can be made and put on in less time than
the large and cumbrous slabs of the Warrior. Where,
as we believe, the artillerists have got the start of
the armourers is, in obtaining mechanical strength
as a property of their guns, while the shipbuilders
have been thinking only of hanging vast scales of
dead material, like the sandbags of the trenches,
upon the sides of their ships. The armour will have
to be as scientific in its construction as the weapon,
and our naval architects must renounce the clumsy
expedients of mere walls of iron and wood, ever so
thick or so superlatively good of their kind. Pro-
tection of this kind is the easiest to obtain, but it
is at a comparative sacrifice of some of the most
vital qualities demanded of a ship•of-war in these
times—speed, handiness, armament, and the means
of keeping the sea.—Daily News.

ho was very sorry to state that, young as he was, he was a
most incorrigible thief, and that some time ago he stole a
shilling and expended it among leis Companions. For that
theft he was forgiven on his promise to behave better. On
Tuesday week the boy sole another shilling and his
mother's crochet work entristed to her, and disposed of it at
one of those infamous nuisances called " leaving shops" for a
shilling. The value of the work was ss. He did not know
what to do with the boy, mho had been. away from his home
a week, and he was alraid he had been in very bad
company.
Mr. Woolrych said theprisoner made a promise to be a
good boy when he was before him some time ago, but he
had gone from bad to work, and there was no hope of his
amendment unless he was sent to a place where he would
receive good ad vice and a 7igorous training. He sentenced

Inspector Alston, of the Thames police, said he met the
prisoner in Old Gravel.lanc, and as he appeared to be very
bulky, he stopped him and asked him if he had anything
about him liable to duty, to which he replied " Nothing,"
and was running away when he was stopped and searched,
and 41 lbs. of foreign manufactured tobacco was found con-
cealed on his person. It was fastened round the prisoner's
body. The tobacco was liable to a duty of 3s. sd. per lb.
Mr. Woolrych sentenced the prisoner to pay a fine of £2
55., the simple value of the tobacco, and the duty thereon.
