This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un-
fortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul-
gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their invariable con-
unwisely entertains a fear of applying to a qualified physi-
elief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro-
oseionquenfocres r,
neously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of
art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where
alone it can be procured. Dr. LA 'MERT has taken the highest
medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his
practiceguarantee for his professional experi-
ence,
whichfar many es
haerefyerers is a
reference
almost
solely to the treatment of these
diseases. _ _ _

COI DIERCIAL NEWS.

The favourable advices received by the Europa had
tended to make the markets very firm, and in many
descriptions of goods advances had been made.
Flour and grain especially were buoyant and prices
higher.
The advices as to cotton are not satisfactory.
Holders, expecting advances, decline operations at
present prices. Tae market is, therefore, weak, and
to effect large sales concessions would be required.
The advices from the interior continue to represent a
falling off in the receipts of breadstuffs.
By telegraph from New Orleans we have the
market of the 21st. Cotton was heavy ; the demand
moderate. The sales were 1,500 bales, including fair
middling, at 12ic.;

published on Friday, the following paragraph :—'• We un-

Christchurch, St. Pancras, has resigned his incumbency,
with the intention of joining the Catholic Church ." Ru-
mours to this effect have been flying about for some days
past, but we feared to give currency to them until some sort
of confirmation appeared. This open declaration in a Popish
periodical is the best sort of proot that is attainable. Having
alluded to the subject, we may add that it is very positively
stated by the friends of the parties, that Mr. H. W. ‘‘' lib, r-
force, brother of the Bishop of Oxford, and Mr. Allies, late
chaplain to the Bishop of London, have come to a similar

would have been signed by many of the same character
in the country, only they looked upon it as certain of
defeat. He therefore implored their Lordships to reject
it, and by so doing remove further mime of discontent.
The Bishop of LONDON replied.—The Noble Earl
said thisßill would affect property; but it should be recol-
lected that those clergymen who held benefices held
them exclusively on the condition of teaching the truth.
The decision of the bishops would be binding, not upon
her Majesty, but upon the Judicial Committee.
Lord CAIPBELL said the decision of the new tri-
bunal would be binding and conclusive " for the purposes
of the appeal;" and therefore it would be binding and
conclusive upon the Queen as well as upon the Judicial
Committee of the Privy Council. There was nothing to
qualify it. True, it was stated the decision should be
specially reported to the Queen; but there was nothing
is the Bill left for her discretion in adopting it.
The Duke of CAMBRIDGE expressed his regret at
being obliged to vote against her Majesty's Government;
he bad attended strictly to the debate from conscientious
motives, and every one who knew him knew he was no
bigot; but those motives prevented him from acquiescing
in the view of the Government on the question. He
looked on the question as one of religion—there was
nothing of party in his view of the matter—he only
went on the ground of faith, and he could not, there-
fore, conscientiously consent to oppose the St cond reading
of the Bill.
The House then divided, when there appeared—

A NOVEL.
" The author, we are convinced, is young, otherwise we could
hardly s' displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
half of his heroes and heroines. Ile is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high standard of morality and religion, ant by a laudable love
of the purest sort of fame. We gather this from the glowing lan-
guage in which he expresses his feelings, sentiments, and opinions
on the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
on matters that are the prima mobilla of the actions which cha-
racterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraelis, Man-
nerses, and Smythea."—Observer.
" Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains passages of exceed-
ing beauty, and is written in pure and forcible language, with great
good taste and power. It is one of the most interesting and en-
gaging novels which the present season has produced. Of the cha-
racter of Amelia Ross we have already spoken, and the extract we
have given above is the surest voucher of the truth of what we have
said. The other ladies who play coaspicuons parts in the tale are
Florence_Howard, an intellectual beauty; Jessie Gordon, a wild and
impulsive genius, passionately fond of music and poetry; and Julia
Maitland, the noblest and best of them all."—Morning Poet.

ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION BILL.

Mr. HORSMAN would be glad if the Noble Lord
would fix a day for going into Committee on the Ecele-
iiastieal Commission Bill.

Lord J. RUSSELL said he proposed to take it on
Friday, the 28th instant.
EDUCATION BILL

The Earl of ARUNDEL and SURREY, seeing the
Hon. Member for Olubam in his place, wished to ask
him a question with respect to the Education Bill which
now stands on tho order of the day for Wednes-
day. An erroneous opinion prevailed that it was
not the intention of the Lion. Member to proceed with
the Bill, and it would, therefore, be a convenience to the
House if the Hon. Member would state what course he
intended to pursue.
Mr. .J. FOX said it was certainly his intention
to proceed with the Bill, and he wished the debate on it
to be resumed next Wednesday. He certainly should
persevere with the Bill as long as the House would allow
him to do so.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN L AMBETII. --- Yesterday
e.r broke out in the
biscuit baker,
morning, shortly before 2 o'clock, a fire
premises belonging to Mr. Belton, bread and
at the corner of Agnes and Cross Streets, Waterloo-road.
The discovery was made by one of the constables of the L
division, whilst patrolling his beat. Smoke which he saw
issuing from the lower part of the premises convinced him
that the place was on fire; he therefore raised an alarm,
and, after repeatedly knocking at the doors, succeeded in
arousing the inmates, eensisting of Mr. and Mrs. Belton,
their son, and two female ledgers. By the time, however,
that they were made sensible of their danger the whole of
the basement was one immense body of fire, and the flames
bad extended half way up the staircase. Finding it impos-
sible to escape down stairs, the two female lodgers leaped out
of the top window, Mr. and Mrs. Belton were obliged to re-
sort to the dangerous expedient or first throwing their child
out of window, and afterwards jumping out themselves.
Mr. Belton was very severely hurt about the feet, but the
other parties fortunately received no injury of any import-
mice. The West of England engine arrived, followed by
several belonging to the London brigade. Unfortunately,
during the excitement which prevailed, the turncock had
not been called, and the consequence was, that although the
engines were all ready to be worked, not a drop of water
could be procured, and the house, with all it contained, was
soon reduced to ruins. At length the turncoek having been
apprised of the misfortune, attended immediately, and a
plentiful supply of water was then obtained. The whole of
Mr. Belton's stock in trade, furniture, and wearigg appeal
are destroyed, and 5001. in bank notes caSurned.

THE MORNING SITTING.

Mr. DISRAELI suggested to the Chancellor of the
Exchtquer that it would be inconvenient to have a
morning sitting on Thursday.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
had no objection to a morning sitting on such a day as
would be most convenient to the Hous?. He would
then fore say, Friday next at twelve o'clock, instead oi
Thursday.

RUSSIA.

ST. PETERSBURGII, MAT 23.—TnE GREAT Ex-
lIIBITION OT 1851.—The committee for the London
exhibition has informed the corresponding committee
in St. Petersburgh that the space assigned to the
exhibition of Russian product is 10,000 square feet,
including the passages, whereby the space for the
articles exhibited will not exceed half that extent.
The St. Petersburgh committee, therefore, desire that
only such articles be sent which have already ob-
tained a great fame, and in such quantity
as shall suffice to show the quality of the
product which, continues the committee, will
probably be all specimens of agricultural produce.
The time for sending the articles to St. Petersburgh,
where they will be subject to the strict scrutiny of
the home committee, begins on the 13th of July next,
and closes on the 13th of September. The time fixed
for receiving them in London is from Jan. 1 to March i
1, 1851, a season when the Russian navigation s
not open, in consequence of which all articles from
hence must be dispatched from Russia in the autumn
of 1850. All articles selected by the committee will
be sent to London at the expense of the Crown, and
will there be placed under the special charge of the
agent of the Minister of Finance, who will be in
London, and who will be responsible for the return
of such articles as shall remain unsold.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the 28th ult. have arrived.
The Heraldo contains the following :
" The day before yesterday a meeting of holders of
Spanish securities was held in the Bank of St. Ferdi-
nand to consider what memorial they ought to address
to the Board of Public Debt upon the arrangement of
that debt, agreeably to the Royal decree of the 30th of
March last. This meeting was only preliminary, another
meeting being to be held on the 2d of June next, in the
same place, to elect deputies from their body charged to
communicate with the board on the subject. At the
preliminary meeting the greatest order prevailed. and,
although treating of money matters, which are always
of a delicate nature, and very likely to excite the pas-
sions, every one spoke with calmness, and all did that
justice to the Government to which it is entitled for the
uprightness of its intentions, and for having taken the
initiative in entering on a question, which, if satisfactorily
solved, as it is 0 be hoped it will be, must be the com-
mencement of our prosperity, present and future."

for discussion on that day?

with them on the 20th of June.

DRAINAGE.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCEIEQUER wished
to state that it was not his intention to proceed with the
Drainage and Improvement of Land Bill to-night. At
the same time he did not know when it was probable
that he should be able to take that Bill. Ho proposed
to take a morning sitting on Thursday for the purpete
of discussing the Bill.
An EloN. l‘fimßEß asked if they were to sit in the
New House on 'Thursday?—(Laughter.)
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was un-
derstood to reply in the affirmative.
