THE Royal Family, Nobility, Ladies, and Gentlemen, are respectfully informed, that PRINCE'. celebrated RUSSIA OIL is proved the only article that will prevent the HAIR falling off or turning grey, and if begun to change, by using it often, will, in a short time, restore it to its natural colour, and is the best article for dressing, preserving, promoting, curling, and making the Hair look beautiful, at 55. per Bottle, or a Bottle containing five small, 20s. CAUTIOL—There are several Hair-dressers who sell counterfeit Russia Oil, which is trash, and to deceive have the villany to put the Proprietor's name, Prince, on the cover and bottle ; therefore the Proprietor begs Ladies and Gentlemen to be particular, when pur chasing the Russia Oil themselves, or sending their servant for it, to have it of the Proprietor, Mr. Prince, 9, Poland -street, Oxford-street, or of the principal Perfumers and Medicine Venders. Merchants and Captains, who have orders for Russia Oil, will be particular and guard against impostors who go about with base coun terfeits and say it is the Genuine. Several Merchants and Captains, who have been deceived, and have sent it to the East and West In dies, have been blamed for sending Counterfeit, and have had it re turned, as abroad they are very particular to have a Genuine article. The Public in general ought to be acquainted that there is a man of the name of Asher, who was a servant some time ago to Mr. Prince, who employed hint to do the labouring part (as the principal ingredi ent is kept a secret by the Proprietor, who always mixed it himself.) This same man has the audacity to make a trash which he calls Russia Oil, and the insolence so copy the bill and wrapper, and to put his former master's name on the cover and seal. The Proprietor is sorry to say, there are several ilair-dressers and others, although knowing it is not the genuine, have the meanness to buy this trash, as they get it for a mere trifle, and impose on the Public by telling them it is the Genuine. This same fellow, some time ago, travelled, and tried to impose his Counterfeits on Country Hair-dressers and Shopkeepers ; hut in Brighton, if they had caught him, he would have bad a good ducking, as he took in several who thought it was the Genuine, as the wrapper was made exactly like Mr. Prince's. He had even the vil lany to call on Mr. John Good, Hair-dresser, Brighton, and said he was a traveller from Mr. Prince and was now returning to London, with some Russia Oil on hand ; instead of which, if Mr. Good pur chased it, he would allow him 10$. per cent. extra discount, un which Mr Good bought it. Some of his cutomers having bought some of him brought it back, and said they did not think it Ge nuine, on which Mr. Good, suspecting something wrong, wrote to Mr. Prince. the proprietor, London ; on the receipt of which, Mr. Prince went immediately to Brighton ; and Mr. Good and others, who had been deceived in a similar manner, went to John Bates, Esq. the magistrate of Brighton, and asked his advice. When the magistrate heard the case, he said he could have three months in the tread-mill. —as it was a fraud—for taking money under fale pretences, and granted a warrant for his apprehension ; but the rogue getting scent of it, ran a+::y trom Brighton to London ; and the magistrate signing the war rant recommended it to J. E. Conant. Esq. the magistrate of Marlbo rough-street, London, who sent officers to apprehend him, yet the rogue managed to keep himself from being taken ; but as the warrant is still open against him, if he does not leave off his roguery he can still he punished. To convince Hair-dressers and others it is a fact, the warrant may be seen at Mr. Prince's. Also Hair-dressers. or any one else selling counterfeit Russia oil, under any pretence whatever, with the name Prince on the seal and wrapper, are liable to be pun6hed, ith a dance on the treadmill for the fraud. The proprietor also ac quaints gentlemen who are in the habit of going to the hotels in Covent Garden, and its vicinity, that there is a hairdresser under the piazza who sells counterfeit, and has taken in several purchasers, by telling them it is Genuine. Several gentlemen who have bought this trashlhave come to the proprietor to know if it was the Genuine, as they found it did not answer the purpose, and learning it was counterfeit they said they would never again employ him, and would acquaint the proprietor of the hotel of his roguery. No doubt there are some Hair-dressers who think Mr. Prince, the Proprietor, is too severe with them ; but if they conscientiously con. shier the thousands Mr. Prince has spent in advertising It, they must actually consider it next to robbery to endeavour to deprive Mr. Prince of the sale of it by selling Counterfeit ; and besides, Mr. P. al a very liberal discount for selling again. To satisfy the Public in general that Mr. Prince's Russia Oil is the original and only Genuine, the fol owing Gentlemen, who are the brit Perfumer. and Medicine Venders in the Kingdom, have sold it above twenty years :—Smyth and Nephew. 117, New Bond s:reet ; llendrie and Son, Titchborne.street; Bayley and Blew ' Cock spur.street ; Sanger, 150, Oxford-street; Newbury and Son, St Paul's; Dicey and Sutton, Bow Church-yard; Barclay and Son, Farringdon street ; Butler and Son, Cheapside ; Shaw and Edwards, St. Paul's ; Prout, C 26, Strand ; Rigge and Son, 65, Cheapside; Johnston, 68, ; Bolton and Lutt.

LORD who in cock-fighting took great delight, Once offered this wager to lay : That when put down together the cocks should not fight, But run from each other away ; For that be a greater attraction would bring Than they to each other would pr.,ve, A charm so alluring, that round the wide ring They should follow where'er he should move. The wager accepted, the cocks trimmed and grac'd, (What a concourse encircled the ground!) And they were no sooner upon the turf placed. Than each cock turned suddenly round. They viewed not each other, but made a dart stand, Then swift at his lordship they sew (His bouts were by Warren's jet Blacking japan'd And surprisingly shone to the view.) The secret was out ; but the wager was won, For the image of each was displayed, In the high polished boots that so brilliantly shone, And each cock attack'd his own shade. Then shouts of applause echoed loud from the throng, To his lordship's sagacity due; But if pralae to his lordship's invention belong, Warren ! what must be given to you? Nor without your jet Blacking his boots had not shone, Nor have had such a lustre tis boast, Tb humour had failed, he the bet had sot won, And the sport of the day had been lost. Rack nobleman present then quickly declared, Warren's Blacking alone he would use, And each one to Warren as quickly repaired, To buy his Japan for their shoes.

STATEMENT OF THE POOR, &c. OF LAMBETH, PRICE 7n. administration oppresses every part of these fine Italian provinces, in order to extract the gold, which it incessantly throws into the treasury of Vienna—a species of vessel of the Dannides, which all the money of Italy would be insuf !•ficient to fill. The Austrian Proteus-like police, sometimes in its regular uniform, at the church or at the theatre, and sometimes under the livery of the valet or the embroidery of the master, in the chair of the professor or in the pulpit of the preacher, is to be found in all assemblies and seated at all tables. Switzerland is to Lombardy what France is to Pied mont—a dangerous neighbour. The Austrian government, carefully guarding all the avenues, fearing that the prin ciples of liberty may find a passage, has established against their invasion a species of cordon sanitaire. The canton of Tessin ie menaced with an approaching invasion. The extent of the Lombardo Venetian kingdom is 17,800 square miles, the population 4,930.000 ; it is from this population that Austria receives annually the enormous stun of 122,000,000 francs, and that it levies an army of 50,000 men, torn from their native country, to be dispersed through the garrisons of Hungary.- - New troops are arriving every (lay in Lombardy. Pr(viotis to the late revolution it was the intention of Austria tu as semble 180,000 men ; recent events have only served to for tify that resolution. _ The Piedmontese and the Lombards sympathise ; their cause is the same , both are good soldiers. Napoleon, who knew them, rendered them that justice. South of the Po are two small duchies, which Austria considers as annexed to Its kingdom of Lombardy, and a sort of Roman province where it keeps a garrison. The population of the duchies of Parma and Modena do nut exceed nine hundred thou sand. Placentia. the second city in point of population of the duchy of Parma, is militarily occupied by the Ails'. trians ; and, as at Milan, the cannon are mounted on the Place Publique. The population, Lombard in its character and habits, is still regulated with regard to its civil interests by the Code Napoleon. In the Duchy ofModena, the Duke, a man of Austria and of the Jesuit , , directs all the acts, all the measures of his government, against intelligence and wealth; the civil and criminal regulations, every thing, are subject to the regime of his good pleasure. Greedy of money, the Duke has made confiscation the order of the day. At Reggio, a town comprised in the events of 1820, there does not exist a family which has not been struck in the persons of some of its members. The model of a tyrant, the Duke Francis d'Este seems to make on his 450,000 subjects the experi ment of every kind of oppression, and in his States every palace, every house, is a species of isolated prison, the satel lites of which prohibit the entrance of any member of the family. The social ties have also been broken at Massa and Cassara, as well as at Reggio ; and as at Modena a veil of mourning extends through the whole duchy. Tuscany, separated from the north of Italy by the chain of the Appennines, form the point of the passage from Aus trian Italy to Italian Italy, sliming with one its manners, and with the other its government, the model of a supporta- Me despotism, or the arbitrary mode, with forms ; but a pre carioas State, which has no other guarantee than the indivi dual character of the Grand Duke. Didier says rightly, that the Tuscans are free like the deer in a park, provided they do not take it into their heads to go away from the en closure, where it might be difficult for the lord to enjoy the chace by hunting them. The population of Tuscany is about 1,300,000, the extent of the country is 6,300 square miles, the revenue 17,000,000 francs ; 4,000 soldiers compose the whole army of the Grand Duke. The greatest, the finest, and most fertile country of the peninsula, the kingdom of the two Sicilies, occupies the east shores of Italy ; 7,420,000 inhabitants cover an extent of 31,800 square miles. The annual revenue is 84,000,000 francs, which serve to support 30,000 bad soldiers, an ad ministration much worse, and a blind despotism, from which every denunciation, even if anonymous, obtains cre dit which imprisons exiles, upon suspicion, and causes to roll upon the scaffold the head of every one accused, for let him be declared innocent by a solemn judgment, or absolved from all criminality, yet Matheis, the intendant of Cala bria, convicted of having, to serve his vengeance, suborned false witnesses, v.ill in secret inflict horrible tortures and kill his prisoners. Thus, in the times of Acton and Caroline, a state junta, composed of tools, pronounced with closed doom, upon the fate of the accused aho were never confronted with their accusers, whose names tue kept secret. In this un fortunate kingdom the confessional is erected into au inqui sition ; conscience is subjected to tot ture ; every penitent must not only denounce himself, but still more, denounce his friends and his relations, nor can absolution be obtained but at this price. Since 1821, the kingdom of the Two Sici lies has been subjected to this atrocious system. Unfortu nate is the nation conquered in its contest with power. Between the kingdom of Naples and the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, on a surface of 13,000 square miles, vegetates, and begs, a pauper population of 2,600,000 souls, under the sword of 6,000 soldiers obedient to the voice of priests, who every year know how to extract from this misery 6,000,000 Roman crowns. One city only, Bologna, was' conciliated, because it was feared by Rome, and because' the word liberty, twice traced on the arms of the city, is deeply engraveu in the hearts of the Bolognese. This melan choly Papal royalty has dug in the centre of Italy a deep abyss, in which the liberties and the civilization of a nation of twenty millions of people are engulphed, nor can theyextricate themselves from it till the abyss has been filled up by means of the annihilation of that temporal power, from which the spiritual power of the Pope ought ever to be disengaged and purged. This epuration is not only the wish and the want of Italy, it is also the want and the wish of Catholic Eu rope ; even Austria herself has constantly manifested it ; faithful t her old Gibelline enmities, it is to lake alone that she confides the care of her temporal security in the Lombardo Venetian kingdom : she doe, not permit the clergy to transgress the limits of their spiritual attributes. Two influences prevail in Italy—that of France, and that of Acstria. Through one, under the influence of the mildest climate, and with the most fertile soil, Italy is without ma nufactures, in the midst of all the elements of industry —without commerce, between two seas, bordered by ports, roads, gulfs, and isles of refuge—without political existence, though having a population of 20,000,000 intelligent and !nave people ; through the other, she would rapidly re-ascend to those times when, toe instructress of the rest of Europe, astonishing, and vivifying by her opulence and intelligence, Italy held the sceptre of commerce, of science, literature, and the arts.

Lord Eldon has introduced into the House of Lords, a Bill " to re medy the evils which his Majesty's subjects sustain from conflicting decisions of the Courts of Law in England and Scotland, on the subject of Divorces a Vinetdo Mairimonii, granted by the Courts of Law in Scotland, at the suit of persons not possessing a real and permanent do micile therein." The preamble sets forth that, whereas in cases of desertion or non. adherence of either party who are lawfully iatemiarried, after decree of adherence obtained, and other legal forms complied with, as well as in cases where the adultery either of the husband or of the wife is estab blished by legal evldence,the Consistorial Court of Scotland has long been invested with the power of granting and pronouncing a divorce a Vet:cute . 1 / a trimonii, to the effect of dissolving the marriage contract, so as to en. able either party again lawfully to contract marriage, except in so far as relates to the offender in eases of adultery, who by law is prohibited from intermarrying with the person with whom he or she is in the decreet of divorce declared to have committed the offence; which jurisdiction and power is now, by the Ist Gutiehints IV. c. 69, transferred fro,u the afore. said Consistorial Court to the Lords of Council and Session, constituting the supreme Cavil Court of Justice in Scotland. And, whereas, in Eng land and frelend, and in other parts or colonies appertaining to or con nected with the United Kingdom, there neither exists, nor has existed any Court possessing the power, on any account whatever, of dissolvin t the marriage contract to the e ff ect of enabling eithe r p ar ty, d ur i ng t h e existence of the other, again to contract lawful wedlock 4 and the in. jured party has therefore, in these parts of the British dominions, been enabled to obtain this effectual redress for the injury sustained by a special Act of the Legislaiure, dissolving the marriage, and ena b ling the parties again to contract lawful wedlock, which relief Parliament has in practice never granted to the wife unless in her petition there was set forth, and subsequently proved, not only adultery but great cruelty or other gross misconduct on the part of her husband. And, whereas, this es sential difference in the judicial arrangements of Scotland, and of those of the other parts of this United Kingdom, has induced and may induce mar ried people who are domiciled in other parts of the British Empire, and who incline to obtain a divorce a Vincula Aldirirnunii, to resort to Scot. land, where the Courts possess the power of giving that redress. And, whereas, the Courts of Law in Scotland, in all cases where their jurisdic. tion has been founded, either by the personal citation of the defender, or by citation left at a dwelling house where he or she may have resided for 40 days, whether the parties bad or had not acquired a real and per manent domicile in that country, have thought themselves authorised and bound to administer that extended redress of divorce a Vineuft, Mat, inwaii, which the Municipal Law of Scotland sanctions, without regard to the Rules of Law of the country to which, in many cases, the parties have at the time been permanently aubjccied, and have pro nounced judgment accordingly. And, whereas, the Courts of Law in England have thought themselves authorised and bound to disregard, and to consider as null and void, decrees of divorce so ob. rained in Scotland as aforesaid, by which marriages contracted in Eng land by persons permanently domiciled therein have b.mii dissolved. And, whereas, these conflicting decisions of the Courts of Law in dif. rent parts of the United Kingdom have produced, and must continue to produce, consequences highly injurious to his Majesty's subjects. It then proceeds to enact that, in actions for divorce in Scotland, the summons shall contain an averment that the husband had such a permanent domicile, as, had he died intestate, would have subjected his moveable property to distribution, according to the rules sanctioned and established by by the Municipal Law thereof. That the facts of such averment shall be considered and determined before inquiry into the alleged injury. That a copy of the summons to be served on his Majesty's Advocate or Solicitor-General, who, in case of non-appearance of the defender, shall institute the necessary investigation ; or if the defender does ap. pear, and the Court shall think that there are reasonable grounds of suspicion as to the production of information, they may authorize fur. ther investigation. That the Courts in England may receive in evidence a decree of di. vurce of the Court of Justice in Scotland. And that nothing in the Act to extend to any divorce grunted before the passing hereof. STA TISTICS OF ITALY. At the moment when war appears to be imminent, it is useful to direct attention to the countries which may become its theatre. No country has a stronger claim on our sym pathies than the Peninsula of Italy. The Sardinian states state comprise what may be called French Italy. Turin is a mixed city—the Italian impress is almost effaced ; the language, customs, physiognomy, the 'organization, both administrative and militar) every thing, in fact, in Piedmont, affords evidence of the vicinity and in fluence of France. Thus the kingdom of Sardinia is that which is watched by Austria with e treme solicitude. Its et= forts to substitute the Duke of Modena for Prince de Carignan the heir, have failed, Austria has now succeeded in with drawing the Piedmontese army from the infleence of the 'Prince, by placing over it Gen. Paolucci, an Austro- Nlodenian. There the King is above the law. He annuls private trans actions and contracts. He reverses the judgments of the tribunals, but he recognises the sovereignty of Rome—as a submissive vassal, he accepts all consequences of that sf , r vitude. The civil estate is in the hand.. of the clergy. The colleges and the public establishments have Jesuits for tiAr superiors and directors. The numerical force of the Sar dinian army is 60,000 men ; but its red force does not con sist of more than '20,000 soldiers under arms. The popula tion of the country, not including the island of 'ardinia, is about 3,500,000 ; the revenue 60,000,000 francs; the ter ritorial extent 18,180 square miles. The Lombardo-Venetian kingdom may be considered :Is German Italy. Upwards of one hundred thousand Austrian troops, well armed, without any connexions in the country, without regard for its inhabitants, bear with all the weight of foreign domination upon the Lombard population. A greedy EMIGUATION. The sad consequences of that mistaken system and unnatural state of society which drives any portion of the population of any civilized country to an expatriation of themselves and their families trom their native land are now extensively operating with the most calamitous effects on a vast population of unfortunate emigrants, who have, within the last few years. quitted this kingdom on the emigration system, and taken up their residence in the United States of North America. it appears by the well-authenticated representations of the Right Rev. Dr. De Bois, the Roman Catholic Biahop of New York, who is at present in London, that in the city of New Yolk, and within an int mediate neighbouring district, over which the spiritual care of the Right Reverend Prelate extends, there is at this moment a dense pop,. lesion of English, Bauch, and Irish emigrants, men, women, and chil -1 drat, In a state of total wane med domtimion ; that the labour market has been long overstocked; no work or other means, ass seines of sub. sistmce, to be procured at any rate of wages, and that these poor crea tures are actually sinking into death by hundreds in garrets and in cellars from starvation and disease. This vast congregation of misery and want the Rev. Prelate repre sents as extending to above 130,000 in number, and the total deficiency of hospitals ' and charitable institutions of that nature, ha the city of New York, affords no opportunity of effectually curing or even reliev. ing this mass of wretchedness and disease. Tile charitable and humane of all ranks and professions in that city do all in their power by visit ing the unhappy beings in their loathsome abodes, to soothe and aasua i N their sufferings; but the want of such public institutions as hospital., where cleanliness is half cure, renders all the efforts to check disease and death abortive. The object, we understand, of Dr. De BOIS% visit to this moony, is, if possible, to raise a sufficient sum of money for the building of an hospital for the use and reception of all emigrants and strangers reduced to the situation of the unhappy beings above de scribed; and he calculates that the hospital once built, would be in a great degree sustained by a small chuge to every one claiming admission to it, and not belonging to the class of strangers for whose benefit it was designed. That applications to be admitted in this way, the rev. prelate feels satisfied, would be numerous, because, in the whole city of New York, there is but one public hospital, and that on so very limited a scale, that it only accommodates about 40 patients ; and the mo.et able and experienced surgeons, physicians, ap tame:arks, and all branches of the profe-sion, have offered their services gratui tously to any institution of the kind, that he may succeed in vita. blishing. Nothwithstandin. the enormous unemployed population of en,i_ grants above stated , ° ships arc still daily arriving out from these countries, wi h carg9e4 of wretched beings, who are discharged on shore by the captains alto estrry them out. like so much ballast, and there left to perish, without any possible means of ever returning to their own country, which they never should have quitted, and there is too much reason to suspect that false hopes and alluring prospects of comfort and plenty are held out to these poor creatures by the owners of vessels, or their captains, to induce them to quit their homes for the sake of the passage money that may be lad for their transport. Dr. De Bois, however, mentions otyg KlLPanc ex ception to this suspicion, if there be groundtgor pimelly w Ahaaptalti of a vessel, who arrived at New York, a fewNeks hefore he.(Dr. Ile Bets) left there, with a cargo of 300 emigrants fret: Cork and that neighbourhood, in Ireland. hut the captain; firth :•• tfe deplorable situation of the emigr a nt pop u l a ti o n a l r e a dy th ere , wo uld no: chschar•re his poor passengers, but sailed with them again in a few days. an r taking in proviaions, titc and brouyht them back .ig . in to their native country at his own erpense ! Dr. De Bois, on his first arrival in Europe from America visited Rome and paid his respects to the late Pope. t o whom he repr:sented the object of his mission to Europe ; and Ms holiness presented int with a very lutnelsome sum towattls an huitabk sa cud .4 his tun. aeription, as did also several of the Carditals, and otter digoitanes at Rome. The reverend prelate next proceeded to Paris, tint was most k.nilly ' received by the present King, who also became a bubscriber blear !s the required fund, and expressed a warm hope that the reverend pre. late's humane mission might be crowned with success. Since the ar rival of Dr. De Bois in London, he has been received in the most af• fectionate manner by the Marchioness of Wellesltv, with alt nt tcd her family the venerable prelate was intimately acquainted in Attlettee, and the Marchioness, who is one 01 the lathes if honour to the Queen, having mentioned the arrival of the respectable prelate to her 31ajoey, and the object of it. her Majesty imniediattly expressed a wish to eta% c him presented to her, which was a..conlingly dime, and after expressing het best wishes for the accomelishineut of the laudable end he had id view, her Mapsty , with that benign and ch ar i ta bl e f ee li ng t h at i s so well known to characterise her, took out her purse. and handed its con. tents, which were nut inconsiderable, to the reverend waste.
