of Carmock, near Walsall, Staffordshire, 4 .n the 6th July last,
to the Editor of the " Times :"
" Sir,—l think it a duty I owe to the pi iblic to make known
the efficacy of a remedy which I met , wi th accidentally, and
which has been of such wonderful ben, tf.t to myself. Some
months ago I met with a very severe r ecident, having dislo-
cated and fractured my ancle severely. ~ From the great tender-
ness of the joint I was quite unable to 'walk, the limb con-
tinued very much swollen and ademr rtons, and I suffered
dreadfully from severe attacks of spasms in the night, which
extended from the ancle to the leg, thi i. i‘t., back, and to the
arms. Having exhausted every resource oi. relief which I and
my medical
friends in the country c atild suggest, to no

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.
GLOBE.—We r.tivn to the subject of the pro-
! raised, or threatened, importation of American wheat
via Cv.nada, having found, on looking back to the
recent debates in the Canadian Parliament on that
subject, confirmation of the views which we have
already pi esented to our readers We find that,
in the Committee on the Bill for imposing
the duty on American wheat, Mr. Harrison,
one of the Government officials in the province,
stated that there had been further instructions received
from the Celocial-office, since the published dispatch
of Lord Stanley, stating eze wishes of the Home Go-
vernment that a duty on Amei ican wheat should be
imposed at the Canadian frontier. Accordingly the
Governor sends a dispatch to the Provincial Nrlia-
ment proposing the measure "in obedience to -the
wishes" of the Horne Gavel ament. Coupling this ex-
press intimai n whh Load Stanley's dispatch of the
2d March, in which the imposition of such duty was
stated as a sine qua non, preliminary to the farther
reduction of duties on Canadian (American) wheat
in this country, it is impossible to avoid the con-
clusion that the Home Government stands still
more distinctly pledged to that farther reduction
than even appeared on the face of Lord Stanley's
dispatch. It appears that the Act of the Canadian
Parliament was adopted on an express recomm3ntlafion
from the Home Government, following on Lord
Stanley's dispatch, whiCh .hal held oat hopes of ad-
missio 1 at a nonainalgduty here, in cise such an Act
should be adopted. It would seem, then, that there
is no loophole left ; that an express pledge can be
-pleaded.by Canada, as having afforded the sole motive
which could have induced her to tax American wheat at
her own frontier. The tax has been imposed by Canada,
in consequence of that pledge having been given. The
measure would not have been passed so quickly, but
from the necessity which was urged by the official
men for passing the measure duting the recent session
of the Canadian Legislature, or the Home Govern-
ment ,would not be able • to carry out their pledge
during . the ensuing session of the ; Imperial Parlia-
ment. Lord Stanley, in his dispatch, took credit
with the Canadians for the push downwards which
the present Government were making in the
sliding scale, as regarded Canadian wheat. As a
pre-requisite condition to a farther push down-
wards, he pointed out the imposition of a duty
by the Canadians themselves. We have shown
that subsequent instructions to the Governor.

General expressly recommended that imposition. The
condition has been fulfilled, and the Canadians have
thereby entitled themselves to an equivalent reduction
here—that is to say, to admission at a nominal duty.
Such a relinquishment of Imperial duties, on such a
condition, the Kingston Chronicle (Canadian) remarks
as unprecedented. "This is the first time," it says,
"that the Imperial Government has given up to a co-
lony the duties it thinks proper to impose in England
on colonial imports, for the regulation of its own
trade." We have already pointed out to the landed
Corn-law Leaguers that this is a step towards the in-
evitable result of an open corn trade with America
—a main bugbear of their apprehensions, during the
discussions of last session.

STANDARD.—The addition which we are this
day able to make, to the mass of Oriental news pre-
sented in yesterday's paper will afford to our readers
all the information that can be/obtained, and nearly
all that can be desired, as to the triumphant progress
of the British arms in the East. Had any one had
the power to execute a wish, formed by his own
mind upon the most careful consideration, he
could scarcely, if the wisest of men, have
varied in circumstances the actual termination
i in
s ; butu
of the wars in China and Affghanistan. At first
most of unh arranged
sawtotuhleddpeesrifirebdyyeg ti

render of little value any arrangement antagonists
only
by diplomatic guarantees, the prevailing character
of the East renders the contest of diplomacy as
important in influence as the contest of arms,
and, as respects the moral consequence, a contest
most -Unfavourable to honest men. The genius,
and, if we may abuso the word, the heroism of
desperate treachery is at this day as much respected
in. Asia as they. were in southern Europe in the
days of. Pope Alexander the Sixth and " Ferdinand
the Catholic"—as much respected as the valour and
skill of William 111., Marlborough, and Nelson, have
been with us in a later age. Whatever diplomatic
atrangement could be made would probably be to our
disadvantage, would certainly be represented as such ;
and in a part of the world where trickery and fraud
are prized as the highest accomplishments, would
give to our antagonists the augmentation of power
that always follows an opinion of success. Again,
we might hastily desire that the enemy had
yielded without resistance : but hero, too, the
treachery and artfulness of the Oriental character
would take from such a submission much -of its
value to the victors ; it would be thought that the
submission had been made from policy, not from an
overbearing necessity, and the opinion of the ulterior
power of those who made it might remain unshaken.
But the actual result of the two wars proves that all
the resources of Oriental policy and Oriental strength
or valour must prove inadequate to a successful con-
test with Great Britain. The craft of our enomies has
been turned aside by a bold straightforward determi-
nation—this they themselves felt before they tried
the hazard of war ; and their military force,
collected and concentrated for vital efforts, has
been dissipated by the British bayonet like chaff be-
fore the tempest. They have had proof that their
utmost efforts, whether in policy or in war, can avail
nothing against us—proof which they could not have
had but for the circumstances under which the hosti-
lities. have closed.- It only remains to show that we
can be as just and moderate in the relation of friends
and neighbours, as we have been irresistible in arms,
and the peace of the British empire in Asia will be
for ever secured—an achievement which we are so
sanguine as to believe not only possible; but, under a
Government like the present British Government,
even certain.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.

TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is 10 per
mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s.
1044. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange
of 25 40k, and the exchange at Paris on London at
short being 25 573-, it follows that gold is 0.68 per
cent. dearer in London than in Paris.

By advices from llamburgh, the price of gold is
4304 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
31. 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an
exchange of 13 71, and the exchange at Hamburgh
on London at short being 13 10, it follows that gold
is 1.03 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh.
The course of exchange at New York on London
is 1064 per cent., and °the par of exchange between
England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it
follows that the exchange is 3.32 per cent. against
England ; but the quoted exchange at New York
being for hills at 60 days' sight,, the interest must
be deducted from the absve difference.
The intelligence, both from China and Affghan-
istan, has, as might naturally be expected, produced
the highest satisfaction among the merchants and
others who have any interest whatever in the com-
mercial and political aspect of affairs in the East.
The doubts expressed yesterday at the coffee-houses
and other places of City resort are now entirely re-
moved. Indeed, in the first instance, however scep-
tical they might feel as to the news being genuine,
it was rather because they thought the China treaty
" too good to be true," than that they had any sub-
stantial reason for disbelief. The terms of the treaty
were so explicitly stated yesterday, were so circum-
stantial, and bore such an appearance of truth, that
they even counteracted the strong disposition to
doubt. All this sort of doubt, which scarcely pre-
vailed among the better informed, is now at an end.
The conclusion of a peace with China, from more
considerations than one, must have a beneficial effect
upon the trade with this country. Ia the first place,
the ruinous speculation in the leaf, the great export
of the Celestial Empire, the chief consumption of
which is in this country, will now cease. This spe-
culation has been entirely sustained by the interrup-
tion to the trade occasioned by the war, which having
terminated, business will return to the state in which
it was prior to the commencement of hostilities, un-
less indeed the favourable terms of the treaty lead to
an increase in our supplies hitherto unprecedented
This will be a vast benefit in a commercial point .-Jf
view, for besides thq unsettling of the trade in the ar-
ticle, which has ended in the absolute ruin of many
speculators, including several persons of the highest
respectability, the disturbed condition of the market
caused the consumer to pay a much higher price
than was customary. These evils will now be ob-
viated by the satisfactory termination of the war,
and there will probably be the further advantage to
the public of obtaining tea .at a lower price than has
hitherto been paid. In the second place, the trade
in our domestic manufactures will be greatly ex-
tended by the opening of the new ports in China,

and the free intercourse established between two
countries, the prejudices of one of which have here-
tofore prevented commerce from being carried on with
anything like reciprocal advantages. In fact, this
treaty is regarded as the precursor of a field of en•
terr rise opened in Asia, which, up to the present, has
not only been untried, but even uncontemplated. It
was scarcely, hoped, desirable as it might appear, that
any conc3ssion of territory would be granted, even in
the event of a peace with the Celestial Empire,
'although it was thought that we might obtain com-
pensation for the expenses of the war, and the value
of the opium, the destruction of which at first occa
•sioned the interrupon of tranquillity. The Emperor,
it appears, was very unwilling to allow the British
to be too non the "Bohea country," at the port of
Foc-choo-foo, which is a strong instance of his de-
termination to adhere to the old exclusive Chinese
policy, and to prevent the opening of a trade with
the interior. From the open expression of his caution
in this respect, the value of a trade with tWs spot.
mar be gathered.

Amon the capitalists who have long had large
amounts of money lying dormant in their coffers,
the abundance being too great to allow of profitable
employment, ,the. news has been received with the
highest interest and..gratification. The absence of
commercial activity, protracted in a great measure
by the position of atri!irs in the East, has cau§ed the
pletho;a. in,..AheLinoney-market;' which has been- -so-.
often a subject of complaint, and which the opening
of new channels of such high impoti;ance will in a
measure obviate. The Treasury, having its expenses
' reimbursed by the successive payments of the
s2l,ooo,ooo—should no juggle be attempted by the
Chinese authorities—will be relieved to a certain
extent of the temporary embarrassments with
which it has had of late to struggle. A" juggle " to
evade payment of the sum specified in the terms of
peace i 3 the only contingency that is dreaded, since
no doubt is for a moment entertained of the resources
of the Celestial Empire for the payment of a sum so
insignificant compared with the supposed receipts of
the Imperial Treasury. The current joke in the City
on the subject of this payment is, that it decreases the
probability of the Income-tax lasting beyond the pe-
riod first assigned for it by the Premier. On the
whole, the intelligence viewed by persons of all classes,
connected directly or indirectly with mercantile af-.
fairs, has created a complete exhilaration in the me-

tropolis. The public, who were prepared for a series
of harassing disasters both in Affghanistan and on the
Chinese coast, and were therefore apprehensive of a
continued stagnation of trade, now suddenly look for-
ward to a new state of things, which they hope will
repay the commercial world for the losses sustained
during the last few years.
POST.—A statement of tho prospects of the Great
Western Railway Company, for the half-year ending
December 31st next, has been drawn up, in anticipa-
tion of the actual Report to be submitted to the share-
holders-for that period, which appears to be highly
favourable; and although the items of income and
expenditure have, for the unexpired term, yet to be
completed, the account is probably not far from the
truth. The receipts to July 31st were 71,4001.; to
August _2Bth, 59,270/. ; to September 25th, 57,251/. ;
to October '_3OLl), 69,4011. For November to the
27th, they are estimated at 46,000/. ; and for Decem-
ber down to the. 31st at 60,000/. • These sums, in-
cluding a surplus of 2,6051., carried over from the
June account, make a total of 365,9271. The ex-
pense of working the line and its branches is taken at
3,412,4091., at five per
