Just Published, and may be had in French or English, in a sealed envelope, 2s. 6d., or post free, from the Author, for 42 stamps, SELF-PRESERVATION.-A Medical Treatise on the k? Physiology of Marriage, and on the Secret Infirmities and Disorders of Youth and Maturity, usually acquired at an early period of life, which enervate the physical and mental powers, diminish and enfeeble the natural feelings, and exhaust the vital energies of Manhood; with practical observations on the treatment of Ner- vous Debility and Indigestion, whether arising from these causes, close study, or the influence of tropical climates; Local and Constitutional Weakness, Syphi- lis, Stricture, and all diseases and derangements re- sulting from Indiscretion. With forty coloured En- gravings, illustrating the Anatomy, Physiology, and Diseases of the Reproductive Organs, explaining their structures, uses, and functions, and the various in- juries that are produced in them by solitary habits, excesses, and infection. By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, Bedford-sq., London, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the Uni- versity of Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Ilall, London, Iloiiorarv Nleniber of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. cXc. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order that it may be really the cause of mutual hap- piness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disappointments. Excesses are alwnj/s tn/ut tons the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less injury to the constitu- tional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequences of which this Treatise pro- fesses to dilate, are productive of greater misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and much neglected branch of medical practice and the author having obtained the highest medical honours is a guarantee for his professional ex- perience, which has reference almost solely to the treat- ment of these diseases. REVIEW' OF THE WOltK. LA'MERT ON TilE INMRMITIKS OK Yol TH AND M ATI'RITY -There are 8Cf'ne in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but CONSCIENCE and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happ. the mortal who meets with a timely Mentor to snatch him from the gulph into which such scenes must plunge him In the book before us such a monitor is to be found. Far be it from us to misdirect our pen or sully our pages with a notice in any sliape of a work that would taint the purest mind or pander to one evil principle of human nature but the book under review, so far from having a ten- dency of the kind, is one calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without imparting one idea that can vitiate a mind not already tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a stvle of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profonnèl'st truths of philosophy and physic with the loftiest precepts of morality. We speak emphatically in our f>osition as public censors and the guardians of public morals, in common with manv. we have heretofore nourished a deep antipathy against all medical works treating on matters which shun the eye; but the book bein-4" placed on our table for notice, we have been bound to give it an impartial perusal and feel equally bound to state our impression that it is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it it in the hands of his boy. By untaught innocence the book is not of course needed; but wherever laxi y has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of a homilj blended with the pi-tcticil advice of a writer on medicine.—U;<iTru [ KINGDOM MAGAZINE. It is highly necessary that parents, the heads of fami- lies and directors of public and private schools, should possess this useful work. They will then be enabled, by timely warning, to check the progress of a most perni- cious habit in youth, which, if once acquired, hurres its victims, with giant strides, to an early grave.- Loit(loti Journal.

Just Published, price 2s. 6d., or by post direct from the Establishment, 3s. fid. in postage stamps. THE SILENT FRIEND A Medical Work on the i- physical exhaustion and decay of the frame from the effects of solitary indulgence, infection, and the injurious consequences of the abuse of Mercury with observations on the obligations of marriage, and direc- tions for obviating certain disqualiifcations Illustrated by 26 Coloured Engravings, by It and L. PERRY and Co., 19, Berners-street, Oxford-street, London. Pub- lished by the Authors and sold by Strange, 21, Pater- noster-row Hannay, 63, and Sangei, 150, Oxford-street; Starie, 23, Titchbornc-strect, Haymarket and Gordon, 146. Leadenhall-street, London. PART THE FIRST treats of the anatomy and physio- logy of the re-productive organs, and is illustrated by Six Coloured Engravings. PART THE SECOXD treats of the consequences re- sulting from excessive indulgence, and their lamentable effects on the system, producing mental and bodily weakness, nervous excitement, nnfi generative incapacity. It is particularly addressed to those who arc prevented in consequence, from entering into the marriage state, ,in,, of perfect iii d -cret and points out the sure means of perfect and secret restoration to manhood. It is illustrated by Three Exnlanatorv Rn <7r:1I'i ni-s. PART TIIK THIRD treats of the diseases resulting from infection, either in the primary or secondary form, and contains explicit directions for their treatment. The consequences of early neglect or of mistreatment, and of the abuse of mercury, in entailing broken health, and a miserable existence, arc also clearly pointed out. This section is illustrated by Seventeen Coloured Engravings PART THE FOURTH contains a prescription for the Prevention of Disease by a simple application, by which the danger of infection is obviated. Its action is simple but sure. It acts with the virus chemically, and destroys its power on the system. This important part of the Work should not escape the reader's notice. PART THE FIFTH is devoted to the consideration of marriage, and its duties. The reason of physical dis- qualifications, and the causes of unproductive unions are also considered, and the whole subject critically and philosophically inquired into. THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM is employed to renovate the impaired powers of life, when exhausted by the influence exerted by solitary indulgence on the system. Its action is purely balsamic its power in reinvigorating the frame in all cases of consumption, indigestion, female complaints, depression of spirits, and nervous debility, has been demonstrated by its unvarying success in thousands of cases.

GENTLEMEN,—A striking instance of the efficacy of your Macassar Oil in the restoration of the Hair has just come under my notice. The person alluded to is a young man named Haylock, of Ashton, near this place, whose entire head of hair came off by some unaccounta- ble means. He purchased of me several different popu- lar preparations, which he regularly and faithfully used, but without effecting the least apparent change. At last I advised him to try a bottle of your Macassar Oil and on Friday last he communicated to me the pleasing intelligence of the reappearance of a thick head of hair. You can make what use you please of this, and refer inquiries to, yours respectfully, J. SERGEANT, Bookseller, &c." ROWLANDS' HAIR WASH.

I THE OVERLAND MAIL.
I THE OVERLAND MAIL. A Telegraph and Courier of the 1st of May has ar- rived overland. The Atalanta, with the mails, reached Suez on the 21st. I (From the Bombay Telegraph and Courier.) The news from the Puiijaub-till recently so im- portant and exciting-has begun to grow scanty and of diminished interest. We have little, indeed, to add to the accounts sent home by the last mail, save that everything in our new province wears an appear- ance of tranquillity, and that the arrangements for administering the affairs of the country, though not yet officially announced, are believed to be in active pro- gress. There is, it is understood, to be no addition to the regiments of the line of the Bengal Army. A sort of half measure" neither prudent in its origination nor likely to be very successful in its results-is intended to be tried. The leading feature of this consists in the raising of a "contingent" for service in the Pun- jaub-a force to be composed of ten regiments, five cavalry and five infantry, and half of the men to be recruited from Sikhs who have" never borne arms against us," and the remainder from Mussulmans and Poorbeeas. Of the civil arrangements of the new administration no formal i announcement has as yet appeared. There is little intelligence of interest from Pesha- wur; the burden of every letter, in fact being "no news." Major-general Sir W. 11. Gilbert, having re- viewed the troops, and issued a complimentary order to them, took his departure, with a suitable escort, for Lahore. Major General Gilbert was at Attock on the 6th, and arrived at Rawul Pindee, with Brigadier Campbell, on the 10th. This latter place, it is said, promises to be one of the finest stations in India. It is 2,500 feet above the level of the sea, and everything is abundant and cheap The General," says the Delhi Gazette, "resumed his march for Lahore on the 11th, and was expected at Jhelum on the lGth, the Brigadier remain- ing to assume command of the new district committed to his charge." The force at Peshawur had moved to the Sikh cantonments on the west side of the city a new cantonment was talked of, but nothing had been decided respecting it. On the arrival on the bank of the Indus of the troops marching towards Lahore, the bridge of boats was found to be destroyed by the rising of the river, and some detention in consequence took place. The Mofussilite announces, on the authority of a Ferozepore letter, that Shere Singh, on being sent for by Sir H. Lawrence, made his escape." "A party of horsemen," it is added, were sent in pursuit, but they returned without him." This story, however, receives no confirmation from either the Delhi Gazette or the Agra Messenger. From the native correspondence of the former paper, we gather that on the 7th instant Rajah Shere Singh was present in Durbar, and was told that his treachery to the state, and to the British go- vernment, was so great that he deserved condign pun- ishment, but that the promise to spare his life would be kept, and some small allowance made for his support." It is added that the Rajah expressed his gratitude." On the evening of the same day, orders were issued to Rajah Shere Singh and Sirdar Chuttur Singh, to pro- ceed with their families to Attaree, and to take up their abode there. They were instructed to dismiss all their followers, to give up all their arms, and when they reached Attaree not again to quit the place, and never to go more than three or four miles off, when inclined to ride out for the benefit of their health they were dis- tinctly warned, that the slightest infraction of these instructions would be visited with the most severe pun- ishment. A provision would be made for their support. On the 8th, Shere Singh and Chuttur Singh quitted Shadera for Attaree. General Sultan Mahomed was directed to proceed to Bhairoswal to reside; and similar instructions were given as to his abode there as these issued to Chuttur Singh and his" hopeful" son. We 1 shall see how events turn out but we cannot help thinking that (even if Shere Singh has not escaped al- ready) mischief will, ere long, arise from the virtual freedom granted to these rebel chiefs. It appears that, during the first week of April, rookarees were issued to the commissioners regarding the levying of the revenue of the Punjaub, which it was intimated would for the next three years continue to be collected on the same footing as hitherto. We received yesterday morning by steamer intelli- gence from Kurrachce to the 25th ult. The only matter of interest is an account of an affray on the frontier between the Scinde Horse and some marauding Murices, in which the former were signally victorious. It appears that a detachment of the Horse was relieved at Kus- more by a party from head quarters; and that the relief had hardly been effected when the new detachment was attacked by five hundred armed Murrees. One dufficlar and four men were killed and several wounded, and it would probably have gone hard with the cavalry had the party which they had just relieved not heard the firing and hastened back to their rescue. On the arrival of this reinforcement the fortune of the day was changed, and the Murrees were driven off to the hills with a loss of forty killed and several wounded, besides 1,000 head of cattle which were captured by the Scinde Horse. The 26th Regiment of Native Infantry was inspected at Kurrachee by General Auchmuty on the 23d ult.

THE HEIR OF THE WHITE RosE.-General G. H. D. S. W. Plantagenet Harrison has written to the Daily News, complaining of some statements made by our contemporary concerning him You say that I repre- sent myself as a near relation to Queen Victoria. What I represent myself I will maintain with my sword either against you or any other person in existence-and that is, that I am the representative, by direct descent, of Charles Neville, sixth and last Earl of Westmoreland, and, in virtue thereof, I am the legitimate representa- tive of the house of Plantagenet, and heir of the house of Lancaster. I never represented myself as a German prince or any other prince, except as Prince of Planta- genet, whose lineage is more illustrious than that of any other prince in Christendom and any man wishing to prove if that blood has degenerated, can very soon have the opportunity of doing so." MURDEROUS ATTACK uroN A MAIL GUARD. — On Wednesday morning, about three o'clock, a most savage attack was made by two men upon the guard of the mail cart which is despatched at midnight from Biggles- wade to Ware, about two miles from the town of Ste- venage, in Hertfordshire. It appears that at this lonelv point of the cross-road, Morris (the guard) observed two men rush up to the cart, the one to the head of the animal he was driving, and the other to the body of the mail-cart. In an instant he felt the reins torn from his hand, while the rufifan grasped his throat and dragged him out of the vehicle. To protect the letter-bags he made a desperate effort to free himself, but the villains rushed upon him with redoubled fury, beating him un- mercifully, and endeavouring to rob him they tore open his pockets and IÍtled them, without, however, finding any booty. In the meantime the horse, finding himself at liberty, rushed forward, and could not be stopped until he had nearly reached Barnet, where the bags were found quite safe. Some parties from a dis- tance having witnessed the fliglit of the animal by moon- light, and fancying that something was wrong, went in search of the guard, who was found in a disabled state near the spot where the attack was made, the robbers having then made off. EFFECT OF LITIGATION.—The village of Willoughbv, near Rugby, presents one of the strongest examples of the evils of litigation that we believe either this or any of the adjoining counties can afford. Some years ago it possessed charities to the amount of £ 500 per annum, and no such being as a paupEr ?as known. Unhappily, the objects of the testators became a matter of dispute between those who had the management of the funds and some litigious individuals who resided in the parish, and the result was that the case was thrown into Chan- cery. Here it remained some years, and when the mat- ter was decided, not only were the funds of the charity exhausted, but the trustees were reduced from a state of comparative affluence to complete poverty. Indeed, we understand that one or two of them have actually been obliged to take refuge in the union house, and ask relief of the very board of guardians of which they were once members. The village now, instead of being one of the prettiest and most wealthy in the county, is one of the most desolate looking and poorest, so that the objects of the testators have been completely perverted, a great good having been made a great curse.—Banbury Guardian. FATAL ACCIDENT TO A SON OF THE DEAN OF ST. ASAVH.—An INQUEST sat on Thursday at Fulbournet about five miles from Cambridge, on the bodv of John Nichol Luxmoore, a student of St. John's CoUcge, Cambridge, and a son of the Dean of St. Asaph. The deceased and a fellow student started the evening before for a ride towards Abingdon. On their way Mr. Lux- tiioore's companion (Mr. Stewart, of Trinity) proposed a race, and the horses went into a gallop. Mr. Stewart took the lead, and after proceeding a short distance missed the sounds of his friend's horse. He looked round and saw Mr. Luxmoore lying on his back on the ground. He returned to his aid, and found him un- conscious. Mr. Stewart then summoned help, and went for medical assistance, but the unfortunate young gentleman died before the surgeon arrived. The road where the race began was smooth and safe, but a little further on became dangerous and was full of ruts where the accident occurred. Into one of these the horse doubtless stepped and fell, and Mr. Lux- moore was thiown upon his liead. The deceased was about 18 years of age, and was reputed a very exemplary and promising young man. The jury returned a verdict that the deceased paille by his death through an accidental fall from his horse." It was stated t hat the unfortunate genrlemsn' s father is on tin continent.

At Worship-street police-office, on Thursday, Eliza i Schulenberger was committed for trial on a charge of attempting to poison her husband, by administering to him small doses of arsenic. A man named John Burton, shopkeeper, is in custody at Salford, near Manchester, charged with having attempted to murder Giles Hardman, a weaver and a widower, between whom and Burton's wife an improper intimacy was believed by the husband to exist. The attempt was made in Hardman's lodgings with a pis'ol, which flashed in the pan, upon which the men closed, and Hardman wrested the weapon from his assailant. When the charge was drawn, the pistol was found to have contained no less than three bullets. Hardman and Mrs. Burton were sweethearts before their respec- tive marriages. A patented machine has been put into operation at Bii-iiiii,gliaiii for the manufacture of letter envelopes, the number produced by which in complete form is most astonishing. Supposing it to be turned by manual labour, one man, with the aid of three or four voung girls or boys to gather the envelopes, would, it is cal- culated, by its means, be able to manufacture from j 30,000 to 35,000 in an ordinary working day, the paper being cut beforehand; while an expert hand, in the ordinary way, exclusive of the cutting, cannot, upun the average, make more than two thousand in the same manner as those in question, which have a device stamped upon them at the point where the seal is usually placed.

The gums were getting red upon several other points. She died soon after, probably from teething The Daily A eics pronounces the Bishop of Exeter a very cormorant of controversy. Were the whole Avorld to rise up to argue with him, his great disputatiousness had stomach for them all. On Tuesday, the Right Rev. G. Smith, D.D., St. Mary Hall, Oxford, and the Right Rev. D. Anderson, D.D., Exeter College, Oxford, were consecrated by the arch- bishop, in Canterbury Cathedral, Bishops of Victoria (Hong Kong) and Prince Rupert's Land respectively. The cathedral was crowded. Mr. Field, of the firm of Parker, Field, and Sons, gunmakers, London, has addressed a letter to the f<MM, stating that he has examined the blunderbuss found at Potash Farm, and has recognised it as one which he sold on the 13th of July last, to a man exactly answering Rush's description. Jerrold's IVcekly Seu8 says that the Duke of St. Aibans, whose death we recorded last week, was best known as having a title to marry the rich Mrs. Coutts, and a sinecure of some 1:1,200 a-year as Hereditary Grand Falconer. He was the descendant of King Charles II., and of his Protestant—that is, of Mrs. Eleanor Gwynne. It is argued that the national faith is pledged to pay and continue to pay this Stuart legacy of Grand Falconership, But the national faith was far more solemnly and universally pledged to maintain the Stuart dynasty itself; so why that might by a glorious Whig revolution be kicked to France, and the allowance to their dukes of royal bar-sinister descent be perpetuated, we are at a loss to understand. The present Hereditary Grand Falconer is nine years of age, and is perfectly competent to discharge all the duties of the office. A parlour child," of twelve hundied yearly and sterling j pounds' power At the late Huntingdon assizes, a person named Wood was convicted of stealing a bank-note which he had found, but after ascertaining who was the owner, changed it and appropriated the proceeds.

A division has taken place in the congregation of Lady Huntingdon's Chapel, Bristol, in consequence of some peculiar doctrines ptopounded by tue Minister, a young man, the Rev.

Tbe trustees have interfered, and Mr. Horn, with 400 of the congre- gation, has retired from the chapel, and will preach for the future in the Albert Rooms, College Green. At the Mansion House, on Thursday last, a ra,, named Thomas Roberts, was charged with attempting to destroy himself. It appeared that he jumped off London Bridge into the river, and was taken up by I some boats when swimming briskiy at the time. The accused, who is a well known diver, said his hat was blown into the river, and being a good swimmer he jumped in after it. He was quite indignant at being ¡ interfered with.

THE IRON TRADE. —BIRMINGHAM, SATURDAY.— The reduction of £ 1 per ton in the price of iron has been generally adopted, and it now appears that many of the masters never sold at the advanced rate resohed upon at the January quarterly meeting. Some extensive dealers are of opinion that it will be difficult to maintain even at the present price; and that a further reduction may be expected at or before next quarter day. The workpeople in most instances have accepted with good humour the reduced rate of wages. DEATH OF GENERAL THOMAS R. CHAHLETON.— We have to record the demise of the above venerable and gallant officer, formerly of the Royal Artillery, who expirpd at his lesidence at Bath on Saturday, in the 94th year of his age. The gallant deceased was one of the oldest officers in the army, having entered the service as far back as June, 1772, and, for the first forty years of his military career, had seen much active service. He was appointed Lieutenant, July 7, 1779 Captain, Dec. 1, 1782; Major, March 1, 1794 Lieut.- Colonel, Jan. I, 1798; Cclonel, June 28, 1895; Major General, June 4, 1811: Lieutenant General, Aug. 12, 1819; and General, Jan. 10, 1837. DEATH OF MR. FIELDEN.—It is our painful duty to announce the decease, unexpected though by no means ptemature, of one of the most eminent among the bene- factors of the working classes. Thousands of our industrious population will be saddened when they learn that on Monday, the 28th tilt., their old and devoted friend, John Fielden, b'eathed his last breath in a spirit of tranquil resignation.—Sun. THE ROYAL ETCHINGS.—The case of 1 rince Albert v. Stranne. and Jud-ge, was brought before the Vice- Chancellor's Court on Friday. As regards the first named defendant, the terms offered by the plaintiff were accepted by the counsel for the defence, the Prince having consented to forego further proceedings on the catalogues being delivered up and the injunction main- tained against the proposed etchings. On behalf of Mr. Judge, the stipulations concerning the dehtpryof the etchings and payment of costs required by the plaintiff, was resisted by Mr. S. Smith, after whose address to the Court the proceedings were adjourned to Saturday, when judgment was awarded in favour of the illustrious plaintiff on every ground. SMALL MAJORITIES.—Some of the most eventful changes in our constitution have been carried by feeble majorities. The great points of the national religion, under Elizabeth, were carried by six votes. The great question on the danger of Popery, in Queen Anne's reign, was decided by a majority of 256 to 208. The Hanoverian succession was carried by a single vote. The Remonstrance, in Charles the First's time, by eleven. The Union with Scotland and Ireland, by very small majorities. The Reform in Parliament in 1831, by one —Duncan's Essays. ARRITEHENDED DISTURBANCE AT DEVONPORT. — Some excitement has been caused in Devonport by a rumour that the soldiers belonging to her Majesty's 82nd regiment had declared they wot ld revenge the death of one of their comrades lately 1 jund drowned at New Passage, by inflicting summary vengeance on the navvies. The soldier was a private in the reeiinent. and had been out drinking on the night of the 19ih of May, along with some of the navigators belonging to the Keyham works, who got him to fight, and, it is said, thrashed him severely. He was last seen in their com- pany, and was found the next morning, dead, in the Damer canal. On Saturday night last the rumour was confirmed, and hundreds of the soldiers belonging to the regiment were seen marching toward s New Passage, armed with formidable-looking sticks, and evidently bent o:i mischief. The alarm was soon carried to New Passage, and, fortunately, the navvies did not make their appearance. The soldiers, however, mustered together in Navy-row and threatened to clear the public houses. In the meantime, notice had been given at the barracks, and a strong armed picquet, with fixed bayo- nets, were marched to the spot, and dispersed the men. The picquet remained at New Passage until late in the evening, and guards were posted throughout the town during the night, to apprehend any stragglers that might have concealed themselves, and prevent others from entering the place. The men have since been confined to barracks. A DISAPPOINTMENT,-At the Middlesex sessions, last week, Ann Natswell, a woman of respectable appear- ance, unmarried, and advanced in pregnancy, was con- victed upon her own confession of having stolen a quantity of ribbon The prisoner's motive in commit- ting this offence was to get into prison, in order that her confinement might take place secretly in the prison infirmary, under proper medical treatment, and without the least annoyance or expense to her friends. The learned judge said it was astonishing the number of women that resorted to this expedient, for scarcely a session passed but two or three such cases came before the court, but it was not to be tolerated. He would take a course that no doubt would cause the bitterest disappointment to the prisoner—for she would see that she had failed in attaining that for which she had made herself a felon. The sentence of the court was, that she be imprisoned one hour, and discharged. OUT OF THE FULNESS OF THE HEART THE MOUTH SPEAKETH.In the vestry of a village chapel in one of the Midland counties, a plan of the preaching had, according to custom, been fixed up on the wall over the mantel-piece. One day, two friends were I examining it, when one of them observed at the foot of I the plan the following notice The Quarterly Meet- iner will be held on Monday, March 26th (D.V.)" and enquired the meaning of the last two capital letters. Why," said the other, it' s quarter-day, and it means Dinner in the rcstry." DIAMOND DUST.—Wearied with the fatigues, or what is worse, with the impertinence of the day, how pie-a- sant it is to retreat to one's own hearth. Diguise and restraint are here laid aside; and the soul as well as body, if tolerably well formed, always appears more beautiful in dishabille. The quintessence of earthly happiness, which, in warmer climates, was expressed by sitting under one's own vine, is here more sensibly felt by one's own fireside. There is a something in the tempers of the English which the fire softens, as it does the metal, and renders fit for use How often has a room full of visitants been unable to furnish out an hour's conversation, for no other reason but that they were seated in s'ately order at long-angled distances from the fire; bring the same assembly into a cosey semicircle round the grate, and they prove wonderfully good company. Tell us not of the convivial bottle, with its iotoits fol'y and fevered worshippers but commend us to the cheerful household fire, the altar of freedom and the focus of happiness. Report is a quick tra- veller, but an unsafe guide. Memory is like monn- ligh', the reflection of rays emanating from an objpet no longer seen. He who will not reason, is a bigot he who cannot, is a fool; and he who dares not, is a slave. While a man thinks one glass more will not make him drunk, that one glass hath disabled him from well discerning his present condition and neighbour's danger. Whenever you begin to consider whether you may safely take one glass more, it is then high time to give over. — Eliza Cook's Journal. I THE LOST SENSES.—The Blind Asylum The Ver- I non Gallery.

XOT SIMON PURE S.MITH.-The Philadelphia Dis- Patel, tells a story connected with the whipping post of Delaware, where a man received twenty lashes, well laid on. The culprit, instead of bellowing like ten thou- sand" when the constable applied the lash, laughed im- moderately, which made the angry officer lay on still harder. On giving him the twentieth blow, the con- stable could stand it no longer.
