THE opening of the New Year naturally excites sentiments of profound gratitude from Messrs. (LOW LAND and SON, sole Proprietors of the Genuine MACAS SAR OIL, for t h e , unparalleled patronage with which a liberal and discerning Public has honoured that admired article. Its virtues, in promoting the'growth of Hair, beautifying and pre serving it, from infancy to old age, are now known throughout the habitable globe. To Parents and Guardians a more accept able present to those under their care cannot be granted, so far as concerns the preservation of that which every one admires-- personal beauty. It is essentially requisite in purchasing the above article, to ask for " Rowland's Macassar Oil;" also to ob serve that each genuine bottle is enclosed in Rowland's Treatise on the lluman Hair, (highly worthy the attention of parents), and stned on the label in red ink, A.

ESSENCE of PEARL and PEARL DEN- Tint ICK, invented by the late JACOB HEMET, Den tist to the Royal Family, have been proved by long experience , to greatly excel, both in elegance and efficacy, every other pre paration for the Teeth and Gums : they effectually preserve the Teeth in a sound state even to old age, render them white and beautiful without impairing the enamel, fasten such as are lame, and keep such as are decayed from becoming worse. They like wise render the breath delicately sweet, prevent the Tooth-aeh, perfectly cure the Scurvy in the Gums, and make them grow firm and close to the Teeth.—The Essence is particularly recom-'i mended to Parents and Persons who have the care of Children as the greatest preservative of Young and tender Teeth.—Ntine are Genuine but what have the words, " J.

A T a critical Season, like the present, when Chil dren are Teething, the utmost attention ought to be paid then', particularly as the Measles and Chin-cough are so preva-. lent. If the irritation of the gums comes with any other disor der, very few infants recover. Mothers ought never to be with out the AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP in the Nursery, for if a child wakes in the night with pains in its gums, this va luable Medicine applied will immediately open the pores, heal the gums, and thereby prevent fevers or convulsions, for should it come in compet i tion with any other disorder, it o ften destroys the mother's brightest hopes. Parents who may be dubious of the virtues of die Soothing Syrup, may refer to the different cads that have appeared in the Newspapers for these last ten . years. Since Mrs. Johnson has appropriated one hour twice a week, viz. from Nine to Ten o'clock on Tuesday and Saturday Morn ings. to the poor, who have Children afflicted in cutting their Teeth, by bringing a letter from a housekeeper, that the Mo ther is a real object of charity, has made it so universally known in almost every family where there are young children, Mrs. J. hopes so great a charity will not be abused, as it is out of her private purse.

THE great success of this MEDICINE, according to the Recipe of the late Isaac Swallows, entrusted to his Nephew and Successor, Tgorsos Cayman alone, and the hu mane and anxious assiduity to recommend it which, after a ear rect and severe examination and experience of half a century, prevails in the Higher Orders of Society, and among the best informed in the Liberal Professions, render unnecessary all no tice and advertisement of its singUlar virtues is diseased Liver. and all Diseases arising from a Scorbutic or Scrofulous State of the Lymphatic System, and of its certain aid invariable efficacy in all the calamities of impure Infections. But imposture, like envy, closely follows the heelstif merit ; and pretensions to imi tate, to improve it, or to have discovered something of similar efficacy, surprise the unwary, and fatally mislead the ignorant. Mr. CANUAIIt owes it in gratitude to the Public, occasionally to give warning of these dae;ers ; and to refer to those proofs of the virtues and efficacy of his Medicine, to be found in his Publi cations,whieh surpass in number, respectability, andouthenticity, any testimonies of a similar kind , that have been ever produced. The VltartAlLlt Beau, is the most effectual alterativeto cor rect and purify the blood : its effects are such as not to interrupt either business or pleaa..ie ; it operates on the animal juices, and requires oily the common restraints of moderation in diet, is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and corrects their tend:maw to all those disorders which originate in vitiated blood. It is a safe, though a powerful substitute for Mercury, and removes all those shocking evils which an unsuccessful use of that baneful mineral occasions.

The Earl of LAUDERDALE adverted to the notice given by a Noble Lord (Kenyon), of a Motion for to-morrow, rela tive to the employment of children in the above line. Under the present circumstances, and with reference to what had al ready taken place before their "Lordships on the subject, he had to put to that Noble Lord's candour, teepropriety of postponing such a Motion to a future day. The /soblo Lord, he thought, must be aware there were several Peers who wished to take a part in a discussion of the kind, who were at present out of town. The House had already a voluminous quantity of papers and evidence before it on the subject; and he regretted his having to observe, tbot it was to the effect of garbled and mutilated er tracts (roan the documents before them, that the late alarming disturbances at Manchester were, in no mall degree, attributed. In these views of the intended procedure, he trusted the Noble Lord would see the propriety of putting off hie intended Motion 'fora Committee; he thought a month would be advisable, but if that were declined, at least until Monday. Lord KENYON bad no objection to postpone Isis motion till Monday; but he could not consent to delay it till a later period of the Session, the object being to get through ,the inquiry in time to allow a Bill to go through Parliament in the course of the Session. He was not aware of any difficulty in forming a Com mittee, as, according to his recollection, the Committee in .the last Session on Beery day of its meeting transacted business. The Earl of LAUDERDALE expressed a wish that the No. ble Lord would postpone his motion for a month. ESTABLISHMENT OF HER LATE MAJESTY. • The Earl of LIVERPOOL brought down a Message from Ifis Royal Highness the Prince Regent, respecting this subject, and similar to that delivered to the Commons. His Royal Highness's Message was then, on the motion of the Earl Of LIVERPOOL ordered to be taken Into consideration to morrow, and the Lords summoned. The Duke of MONTROSE reported his Royal Highness the ' Prince Retches Answer to the recent Address of their Lord tisips., importing that directions would be given accordingly. JUICART COMMITTEE ON TWO ArIPAIW4 OF THE IBANit. The furl of LIVERPOOL moved the Order of the Day for their Lordships' proceeding to ballot for a Committee on the above subject, pursuant to the Order of the House on Tues day last. The Clerks then, in the usual form, handed the glasses round to the Peers present, each of whom deposited therein the names of such Peers as he deemed most proper to constitute the Committee. A deputation of five Lords were then ordered to retire, to scrutinize the contents of the Lists, and to report the names of such Lords as had the majorities thereon. In a f.w minutes the deputation returned, and the Earl of anArtriallAT reported, that the following Peers were so ap pointed to constitute the Committee, viz. The Lord P;:esideut (Earl of Lord Viscount Sidmouth Harrowby) Lord 'Viscount Gordon (Earl The Duke of Wellington. of Aberdeen) The Marquis of Lansdown Lord Viscount Granville The Earl Graham (Duke of Lord King )fontrose) Lord Grenville The Earl of Liverpool Lord Redesdale .The Earl of St. Germain& The Ertl of Lauderdale. • On the motion of the Earl oeLIVERPOOL, the Committee was ord2red to meet on Saturday, at one o'clock.—Adjourned till to-morrow (this day) HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER reminded the House, that to-morrow was the last day for receiving Petitions for Private Bills, and that ke would therefore take the Chair as soon after three o'clock as lss should be enabled. ILIXTION PiTITTONL The 'louse then proceeded to receive Election Petitions.. Petitions were presented, complaining of the ElLctions at the places undermentioned, and ordered to be tskest into considera tion on the following days : ' Drogheda, second Petition Varch 2 Wootton Bassett March 22 Great Grimsby, second Penick NI: rch 23 Gamelford, second Petition... ..... .... . .........

April 29 Kingston-upon-Hull. May 4 Tree PSFITION or IMMO ULLMAN. Mr. BENNET rose to present a Petition from Dennis Sulli van, complaining that he had served twelve years in the Navy, and was discharged in 1814; that he suffers from a very severe wound, which prevents !I'm following his profession, and was now labouring under the most severe distress; and, because he wanted only one claim—namely, a smart ticket—be was refused the usual pension, and was turned out upon the world to starve. This person was in possession of the most ample certificates from Mors under whom he had served. He offered to make out his case to the satisfaction of the Lords of the Admiralty, asti' prayed for relief. Sir GEORGE COCKBURN observed, that certain Regu lations had been established for the admission of such claims ; and in consequence of these Regulations, the claim of Sullivan could not be• admitted. • The Petition was then ordered to lie on the table. 5, ' = THE COOS LAWL Mr. CURWEN, seeing the Noble Lord in hi. place, begged to know whether it was intended by 'Ministers to propose any measure this Session respectirg the Poor Lsws ? It was a la rotatable fact, that the Poor Rate had increased very much du ring the last year; and there was certainly an anxious desire among all classes that some legislative remedy should be applied I to ties tremendous evil. 'Laid CASTLEREAGH said, that be certainly understood from his High Ronourahle Friend (Mr. Sturges Bourne), who hod been chairman last Session, that he intended to give notice of a Medan on this subject on the first open day. Any assist ance that he himself could give on this most important subject, he would tr.oq cheerfully afford. He understood that a Bill lead.been framed Lst Session, which had been approved of by PRICt SEVEN-PENCE. the last Committee, and which he therefore presumed was likely. to be brought before the II31:ca. • Mr. STURGES BOURNE gave notice, th4t on Tuesday next, he would move for the re-appointment of the Committee on the Poor Laws. - ERFACit OF PRIVILEOP. Sir ROBERT WILSON rase for the purpose of presenting a Petition on e subject which appeared to him of the highest importance, not-because it com plained of an insult offered to an individual, but also stated some facts which it was offered should be sub= stantiated by evidence, and which, if true, materially concerned the freedom of election, and the privileges sand dignity of the House. The person against whom" the charges contained in the Petition were made, was a Member Of this House, and he very much la.. rnented,stlert at tl:is time, when the subject must be brought before the House, that Hon. Member hap pened not to be in the kingdom. Therefore, in the absence of that Hon. Member, he should not feel . himself at liberty to state any thing with the view of aggravating the case, but in what he conceived it to he itii decxjiatv to state to the house, as to the con tents of Ric Petition, he should feel himself bound to be doubly impaiiial. . The case, however, was of such importance as to demand a short statement of its principal circumstances. The Petition stated that the lion. Wyndham Quin was, in July last, appointed to the office of Cusios Rotulorum for the County of I imerick, and• that in consequence of this appeirrt meet, the office of Clerk of the Peace fell under his patronage. The Petitioner, T. W. Grady, had held the office of Clerk of the. Peace for fifteen years pre vious to the appointment of Mr. Quin, but had exe cuted the duties of the office by deputy. Some time after Mr. Quin's appointment, he gave notice to Mr. Grady that he must quit the office, but at the same time offered to allow him the sum of two hundred pounds a year out of the emoluments of it, under certain conditions. This proposal the Petitioner rejected., In the month of December, Mr. Carew Smith, the Agent of the Petitioner; called on Mr. Wyndham Quin, by whom Mr, Smith was informed, that he in tended to give fee Mlice of Clei-k of the Peace to Mr. Richard Smith, of Limerick, but intended that Mr. Grady, the Petitioner, should receive an antruit of two hundred pounds out of the otnoluments of the Offic4 provided he, Mr. Grady, would vote for liffi. Quin at the County election. This Mr. Windhanlr Quin said, he thought a very fair proposal. 'Of th e conversation vihkh passed at this interview, Mr. C: Smith made a minute, which, for the sake of Accu racy, he shewed to Mr. Quin, and wished hi:n to sign. But, although Quin admitted, the minute to be accurate, at the advice of a friend who was pre sent, he did not sign it. As the evidence of the case rested in a great degree on the authenticity of this mi nute, he would now read a copy of it. It o s t ate d that Richard Smith is to be appointed to the office of Clerk of the Peace, in the room of Mr. Grady, 214 , In the ender standing that -Kr. Grady is to receive two hundred pounds a year, to be paid by Mr. Smith out of the emoluments of the office. At the same time it is understood that Mr. Grady is to continue poli tically connected with Mr. Quin. But that Mr. Grady, at any time on relinquishing this annuity of two hun dred pounds, was to be at liberty to diepose of his in fluence as he pleased." The proposal contained in these minutes Mr. Grady rejected with indignation, and intimated that he would br ing the subject before Parliament. A Mr. Garbutt, an agent of Mr. Quin, alarmed at this, went to Mr. Wyndham Quin, and remonstrated with him on the imprudence of his conduce advising him to quash the Matter, by oar ing the annuity of two hundred pounds to Mr. Grady, unfettered by any condition. On' this Mr. Quin wrote as fcelows :—‘, Mr. Grady may vote as he pleases, and if he votes against me, I shall not de ' prive him of his place. (Signed) Wyndham Quin." But the Petitioder said he would have thought him self equally culpable if he agreed to this atter what had passed. He expressed himself ready to prove all these allegations at the bar of the House, and was ready to produce all tire documents, if the House should issue a warrant for that purpose. He hoped the House would not think he had trespassed unne cessarer upon their attention—(Cheers.) The SPEAKER begged that before this Petition was presented, he might be allowed to call the atten tion of the House to the last case which might be considered a precedent on this subject. The Hoaour able Gentleman who brought forward this Petition had been kind enough to mention the lubjett tra.him since the meeting oi . the House this day. Ile trusted that the shortness of the notice would be some excuse Ifor his having been unable to m a ke so extens i ve a search for precedents as he could have wished. But he had found one case on the subject, %%hid', with the leave of the Ifouse, he would now state. The point to which he wished to direct the attention of the House was as to the very first step--namely, whether the Petition should be brought up or not ? In 1811, there was the following entry en the Jour nals for that Session—" On . a Petition being pre sented, complaining of certain acts on the part of R. M. Phillips, Esq. a Member of this Reuse—or dered, that he be directed to attend in Iris place on the 14th June next.". In that case, on a complaint Against a Member, before the Petition was brought up the House directed that he should attend in his place. He had only to add, that if the case he had mentioned was thought a proper precedent to follow on this occasion, it 'Vas only necessary to mention it, to shew the propriety of abstaining tient any discus sion on the subject • till thle. e a - c rlem H be e r h. c id om o i n l y aine against could apeear in his p far ther to say, that though this was the only case he had found, he could uct take upon himself to say drat there were not others on the same subject, but he trusted the House would excuse his not hay ing found any other, and consider the ehortness of the mice —(Hear, hear, hear). Lord CASTLEREAGH observed, that after what had-fallen. from the Chair, the House would be na ter:Lily desirous of, following that course which bad "P 4, 1 ? - •• (•" 5 t:_ 7• • •••:, v's ,••• g-? 1 P • „;: i • • • : I% • , VA ? , . • r` e -•• 4 • /~ i~~~ , 1,1 " ‘i , 0 1 r , i I I . ti I 4 4 , 1 1 1 ' ! 1 i , .. , • i 1 I . ‘, • ';*.• ' ; 1 t i I . k .
