~o depend upon him to earn their' oWn'aubSisteriee, are
the great objects proposed to be aecompliahed-by this
new hospital.
". The following statement will show Mlle magnitude of
the evil which this institution was formed to remedy.
Of the 60,000 deaths which occur every year in England
and the,
from
,slow and lingering diseases, about
36;066. are PrObably • due to pulnienary cOnttniption‘
One-ninth,,therefOre, of the total mortality at all ages.
and' ore than one-Efth of the mortality of is duo
to this cause ' • and as:the daiatiod of the disiiiti,j ge akin
one case with another, is about two years,:it folloWs that
about-72,000 persons arc constantly' suffering from con-
sumption, being at the:rate of Our persons in every thou-
sand of all ages, and eight in every thousand adults.
" Again, ofthe 45;000 deaths occurring every' year in
the metropolis, 'about 5,600, or one-eighth of the total
mortality of the metropolis at all ages, and little less
than one-fifth of the mortality of adidts, arises from this
fatal disease :.and' upwards of 11;000 persons, being
about one in 170 of 'the entire popalation of the" me-
tropolis, and more, than one per cent. of the tidbits, are
constantly wasting. away wider , the attacks of this
lingering malady. '• - - - •
Of these 10,000 cases, about three-fourths occur in
• males,' of whom a • large proportion are working men,
unable to provide for themselves and families, systema-
tically excluded from our•general hospitals, and uniting
in their-own persons every conecivahsle claim:to sytfip.sthy
and assistance: - It May be well't6 add that Piany;-- very
.many—of these poor sufferers are the acknowledged
victims of unventilated workshops, ill-constrtieted dwell-
ings, vitiated. atmosphere, long lours of work, and the
want of open places foe exercise ird recreation ; po that
they may fairly claim trim: their •rielief'brAfiitito not
sympathy only, biii-conipensition for the injury which
their neglect has inflicted upon' them.
• "To all who have felt ihe power of the 'de,sirOyer, or
who -have- reason to fear his -attack—and what family
• through Ont the country has not hadta
,s 'experience of
his presence?—an earnest 'appeal -is -pow made; in the
full assurance that those who givelheir support to this
institution willcembine the work of mercy withs-that of
justice, and aid in furthering as many important objects
as are found united in any charitable institutibil."

amounted to 62/. ss. 7d.. r Another collection fir the

CHINA.:
We find in the Chinese-Olio of Captain Pideling trans-
mitted last week, a mass of curious informatiOn respect-
ing the country with which, apparently, he is so well
acquainted, and such as one could hardly -suppose it
would be in his power to extend from week to week.
Doubtless, however, as indeed professed, there are -ample
material?, or the task would not have been commenced.
The following items respecting the position of gussia,
with reference to Chhia, are of some interest

" Since the conclusion of the treaty at Nankin; insextra-
ordinary defalcation had become apparent in the conimerce,
carried ott at Kiakhta, and -along the line of Siberia, with
(China. It was calculated that the defaliation would be
equal fully to two-thirds of the average traffic of late
years. Russian textile wares were chaffy. without de-
mand among the Chinese merchants, and the conse-
quence was that the manufacturers were' encumbered
with stocks which, for other markets, were no4tonerally
available. The cotton velvets, especially back, for
which Riga had acquired a certain reputation; and
which were a sort of standard article for the Chinese
trade, were-quite unmarketable, to the great consterna-
tion of -the manufacturers of that port. The same was,
the case with cotton goods; and nearly so with the wool-
lens of Moscow. Under such circumstances the manu-
facturing interests of-Thissia were in-the utmost dismay.
Many parties are stated to have stopped their works alto-
gether, and more to have partially suspended, or much
contracted their operations. It was apprehended that
the stoppage of the works would become More gene-
ral still.
" It appears beyond question, therefore, from these re-
results, that the opening of the north-eastern ports of
China to British enterprise has already been the mesas
of accomplishing a veritable revolution in the course of
commerce.

"Wo may be assured, however, that the policy of
Russia is not more asleep now in reference to China than
it has been for the last century. In view of the important
consequences which might be expected to flow both
politically and commercially from the treaty of Nankin,
betwixt Great Britain and China, a sort of diplomatic
army of observation was organised and dispatched last
year from St. Petersburgh to the frontiers, or rather to
range along the frontiers, of Moe. We are enabled,.
in addition, to state that a Prince of the Tolstoy family
is at the bead of this mission extraordinary, whose object
in consonance with the pursuit of those objects, may ha
it cannot be difficult to comprehend, and whose station,
regarded as of permanent establishment."

THE MARQUIS Or LONDONDRERY AND Bls COL.
LIERIES.---We are informed, by a correspondent, that
the Marquis of Londonderry has bad, a meeting with
some of the workmen lately employed on his collieries,
but who are now out on strike, in obedience to the com-
mands of the union. We are given to understand that
at this interview the Noble Marquis expressed th
kindest feelings towards the pitmen, whom he earnestly
recommended to_ return to the paths of industry, but
at the same time signified, in the most decided,te
his determination not to allow his collieries to remain
idle. Ire would, he said, give his former workmen s
short time to consider whether they WOUld ?OSUMI their
labour ; and if they did not within that period intimate
their intention to do so, he would tepta.E.,-to hie Irish
estates and bring ovor a sufficient numbecef _men, who.
,were able and desirous to work_for an lumeit and re-
spectable livelihood.—Durham Chronicle; -
-Street-begging by the, pitmen, their 'wives, tad
children, is increasing to such an extent in this citx. as to
demand 'the interposition of the, civil authorities.. The
fact is painfully illustrative of the, deep distress. in which
they must have been involved by their misguided con-
duet, in throwing up their employment ;Liani--t..xaisfertune
