      ^ The Golden Lectirkeshn?.—Mr. 'Melvill ...

      - A » Excited Bankrupt . —The affairs of Lyon Samuel , a jeweller , have been examined in the Court of Bankruptcy , before Mr . Commissioner Goulburn , three successive days during the present "week . He has been in prison fifteen months , the Court discrediting a story that he told in respect to his having entrusted diamonds and other property to the value of upwards 3000 ? . to a Mr . Diamond . On Tuesday , he addressed the Court in a manner so excited as to occasion doubts of his sanity He said that he had been treated by this Court worse than Palmer had been treated in another court , and he appealed to the press to do him justice . He also charged Mr . Norton , the solicitor for the opposing creditor , with having regard only to costs , and with having incorrectly represented what passed before Mr . Commissioner

      Holroyd . He said that Mr . Norton s clients were Jews ( the bankrupt also is one ) , and that he was a most persecuted person . The Commissioner ordered an adjournment , and said he would ask Mr . Commissioner Holroyd what really occurred at the proceedings before him . On Wednesday , his Honour said that Mr . Holroyd declined to give any version of the proceedings—proceedings which had taken place some time since . The bankrupt then entered into several statements in a very wild manner , mixed with a good deal of disrespect to the Court . Another adjournment took place till Thursday , when the bankrupt was again very irrelevant and rambling . He . ' ; said : — " Give him hi 3 discbarge , and , poor as lie was , he would not leave the country for 20 , 000 ? . He expected to see his hon . friend Mr . Holroyd

      to assist him— ( great laughter )—but all were against him . He would give his Honour leave to be his counsel and to read his brief , and he would then find he was right . ' Samuel a thief ! Samuel a villain ! Samuel a perjurer ! ' No ; but whatever he said they would so have it . Why did he not say at the first what had become of the bracelet ? Because Diamond had . told him that , if be did so , lie would get him into trouble , and ^ if he did not , right would be done . There was an act of Parliament ; but a coach and six horses might be driven through an act of Parliament . He had been before Mr . Commissioner Evans , who had said : — - ' Samuel is going to abscond—he has made a purse and is sure to cut— -he must give bail . ' He ( Mr . Commissioner Evans ) was a very kind commissioner and a just commissioner , and he wished he had not been sent to his Honour . " ( Laughter . ')—After a great deal more in the same style , interrupted several times by the Commissioner , the

      bankrupt burst into tears , and fell on the floor in a fit , when he was carried out . His Honour , who believed he had been acting a scene , said he must stand committed . The Rochester Registration Riots . —Alarge public meeting was held at Rochester on Monday evening , for the purpose of denouncing the conduct of the Mayor and the To-vcn Clerk in connexion with the registrations . The chair was taken by Mr . J . Foord , one of the borough magistrates , who read a letter he had received from Mr . Sergeant Kinglake , in which that gentleman stated that the Mayor had done the burgesses of Rochester a great wrong , and that the Court of Queen ' s Bench would set the matter right for them . He also expressed his intention to do all in his power to bring the conduct of the Mayor ^ before the proper tribunals . Resolutions were passed ^ PrVerely censuring the conduct of the Mayor and Town Clerk , and a committee was appointed to commence proceedings against those individuals .

      London , Friday Evening , October 24 , 1856 . The funds have advanced in price since last week—the public have money and will invest . The stock that has been supplied to the dealers has been lent , not sold ; if the pressure for money be removed , a prospective improvement of the Funds must take ^ place . Money is , however , very much in demand , and for any period high rates are given . It is understood generally , that the Bank returns to morrow will be better , and that tho export of bullion , has , in some measure decreased . ; " •¦ ¦;¦ . . Foreign Stocks have been dealt in more freely , and have sympathized with Consols . Turkish Six per Cent , are 8 fc per cent , higher than at- the settling last ¦ week . Turkish guaranteed Four per Cent , stock , is slightly improved . In Railways there is greater firmness , and purchasers are increasing . French Railway shares ai'C a little better , ' Imfc the state of money in Paris is so unsatisfactory , that speculators are very cautious in buying foreign shares . Great Western of Canada are improving , and there has been a considerable advance in Luxeinbourgs . Ceylons are 1 £ premium , and Easfc Indian shares are generally firmer . : ' The Joirit-Stock Bank shares are without change , and business limited . Crystal Palace shares are hardly negotiable , and capitalists are about to decline dealing iti thom , owing to the recent frauds in the transfers of shares-General Omnibus Company shares are flatter ; the traffic returns , which are most encouraging , do not lead one to suppose it is want of confidence in the undertaking . Mining shares are more inquired after . Mariquita and Cobre , South Australian , do ., Lady Bertha , South Wheal Tolgus , Great . Wheal Alfred , and the Bassets , are in favour .

      NATURE'S TRUE REMEDY . DR . TOWNSENU'S SAKSAPAKILLA . There are three principal avenues by which Nature expels from the body what is necessary should bo expelled therefrom . These three are the Stool , the Urine , and the Pores . These must bo kept in-a healthy condition , or disease is certain . This is a fixed and positive law ; and no human being can safely disregard it . Now , when tho system is diseased , it is the first grand object to sot all these functions at work , both to expel Disease , ami to restore the Health . The bowels must bo openod , cleansed , soothed , and strengthened ; tho urino must be made to How healthfully and naturally , and to throw off the impurities of tho blood : the liver and stomach must bo regulated ; and above all , tho pores must be opened , and tho skin made healthy . These things done , and Nature will go to her work ; and ruddy health will sit smiling upon tho cheek ; aud lifewill be again a luxury . . n AVo will suppose the case of aperson afflicted with a bilious complaint . His head aches , his appotito is poor , his bones and back ache , ho in weak and nervous , his complexion is yellow , tho skin dry , and his tongue furred . Ho goes to a doctor for relief , and is given a doso of medicine to purge him freoly , and ho gets soino temporary relief . But he is not ? £ I J Iu i ^ fow d - , . ° . saEno symptoms return , and ™ sam 0 old Pttr « ° 1 S administered ; and so on , until the poor mail becomes a martyr to heavy , drastic purgalives . Now , what would bo tlio truo practice in such fi ! . ^ ' Practice that Nature herself points SJii ™ , y ' TO o . !

Thobowcls mustof course bo ovacuated , but tho work is but ; begun at thib stage on the business . Tho kidneys must be prompted to do their work , for they have a most important work to do ; tho stomach must bo cleansed ; and . abovoall , the pokes must bo relieved nnd enabled to throw ofr tho secretions which it ] ti ?? off > th 15 ' pl » thorn .
