It clears all cutaneous eruptions, spots, pimples, redness, blotches, (and even actually clears itching pimples). Persons subject to Leprosy, King's Evil, and Scrofula, will And the real Pearl Mat the finest remedy; and it makes coarse, sallow, and sickly complexions a healthy bloom and radiant whiteness. Ladies who use the Pearl Milk will have no occasion to rouge, paint, he. as the best of them is un healthy, and injurious to the skin ;—therefore Ladies aught to be particular what they use for the skin, as the -tin Is naturally thin and delicate. There are young as well as elderly Gentlemen who are subject to pimples, and particularly elderly Gentlemen, whose chins naturally get soft and begin to wrinkle, and shaving becomes difficult, and often cut themselves, but by washing their face with the Real Pearl Milk, or by putting some on the soap when shaving, instead of water, it makes the chin hard and plump, clean all imperfections, and shaving will be comfortable. Several Ladiesihave [declared they have spent pounds for articles for the skin that art so puffed in the Newspapers, but they found they have been defrauded, as it did more harm to the skin than good ; but after a few times using the Real Pearl Milk, they were so pleased with it, as it began to beautify their complexion, and they found the oftener they used it the more it cleared away the red spots they had been subject to ; but they said it was a pity it is so dear or they would use it oftener. A Lady of Distinction, about forty-five, has declared to the Prop rietor , about two years ago, after recovering from an il lness, observed wrinkles under her eyes, that made her look years older : and had had the first medical advice, and used several French and English Cosmetics, yet sound the wrinkles increased, but of .ate washing het face with ,the Pearl Milk, her skin gradually became stnOeth and even, and nude her complexion look healthy and youth. ful. And what makes the real Pearl Milk so valuable to young Ladies, as well as elderly, when washing with it the face, neck, hands, and arms, makes them look healthy, fair, and beautiful. cr In short, if the Royal Family, Nobility, and Oentry, whohave not used the Real Pearl Milk, will honour it with a trial, they will find it the moat valuable article no the toilet. There are some Ladies and Gentlemen, no doubt, who think it impossible for the Real Pearl Milk to possess the above remarkable virtues, but a trial will con vince them of its efficacy.

MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 13, 1831. PRINCE CZARTORYSKI. From FLSTCHZ/1 . 11 Ili:tory of l'oland. This illustrious personage, Prince Adam Czar toryski, is the eldest son of the late prince of the same house, and is descended from the family of Jagslion, the ancient sovereign of Lithuania. His father was long known, not only as a nobleman of the first importance in Poland, but as one of the most accomplished scholars in Europe. Such was his reputation, that at the period of the last vacancy in the throne of Poland, Poniatowaki (afterwards king) was deputed by the diet to propitiate the Empress Catharine to second the election of Czartoryski ; but the deputy's handsome form found such favour in the lioenthius eyes et. the modern Monello*, that he ceased to urge /be suit of the diet, and returned the avowed nominee of his imperial mistress. Prince Czartoryski's claims on the throne, popu larity, and consequent influence, rendered him odious to the Court of St. Petersburg; and when the last act of spoliation was perpetrated, his lands were ravaged, his beautiful Castle of Pulawy de stroyed, and a sentence of extermination pro nounced against him, unless he would consent to send his two sons, one the subject of this notice, and the other Prince Constantine Cnrtoryski, as hostages to St. Petersburg. To avoid this wretched alternative, the prince and his princess, who still survives, consented to the separation, and the two young noblemen were placed under the eye of those who were deemed worthy, bite Auto crat, of reforming, their principles. talents displayed by both brothers, soon obtained for them the admiration of the Court; and, as it was of great importance to gain them over, every mark of imperial favour was heaped upon them by the Emperor Alexander, with whom, from infancy, they had establithed terms of the utmost familiarity. The elder brother held fur a long time the portfolio of the Foreign-office; and, in his official capacity, ac companied his imperial master to the scenes of some of his most serious disasters. During Napoleon's invasion, Prince Constantine was in Poland; and, confiding in the integrity of the then master of the destinies of Europe, and breathing nought but free dom for his country, he joined the banners of the invader, and raised a regiment, at his own expense, to aid in the scheme of liberation. At Smolensk he received a severe wound, from the effects of which he has never yet recovered. He resides at Vienna. " The influence of Prince Adam Czartoryski proved to be singularly useful to Poland after the downfall of Napoleon. He interposed, and interposed successfully, between the anger of Alexander and his suffering country ; nd, o n the establishment of the kingdo m o f P ola nd, he was appointed the curator of all th e u niversities, both there and in the incorporated provinces. These duties he sedulously discharged, until he was super seded by the notorious Count Novozilzoff. From this period he has lived in retirement, faithfully perform ing all the duties of private life. The promotion of agriculture, science in all its branches, and kindly offices among mankind, constituted his occupations until recent events drew him from his privacy. The first call was made by the Russian functionaries, for the purpose of self-protection; the second was that of his devoted country, when a government was essen tial to success. He was chosen not only one of the five members of the executive body, but its presi dent; a station which he still honourably fills. Into his new office he has carried all the unostentatious and disinterested virtues that adorned Pulawy ; and there is little doubt, that if (and no one suspects that such will be the case,) the independence of Poland be fairly won, the choice of his country will point to him as its sovereign. Having fin ished his career, at the University of Edinburgh, he early acquired a strong taste for English institu tions and for Englishmen ; and of this he gave sub stantial proof, by devoting two hundred and fifty pounds a year to the exclusive purchase of Eng lish books. His revenues are enormous, but his liberality is unbounded ; and, as it is a rule in his munificent establishment to provide liberally for the i families of all his dependents, his means are com paratively restricted. But his personal wants are few ; and that he is ready to accommodate himself to circumstances, was well shown by his only ob servation on hearing of the confiscation of his large property in Podolia by Nicholas—' Instead of rid ing, I must walk ; and instead of sumptuous fare, I must dine on buck wheat.' IRELAND—ITS EVILS AND THEIR REMEDIES. Dr. Doyle some time ago published a pamph let, in the form of a letter to Mr. Spring Rice, — which not merely as the work of a very able man, more conversant than almost any other individual with the state of Ireland, but as containing in it some admirable reasonings and suggestions for re relieving the distresses of the peasantry, and gradu ally raising them to something like a chance of security against universal destitution, merits, in our judgment, to be well considered by every mem ber of both Houses of Parliament. As to quote Dr. Doyle must be less troublesome to the reader, and more just to the author, than to re-model his language where it cannot fairly be abridged, we present the learned Bishop's own de tail of the elementary data on which he founds his argument for poor laws, followed by a series of ob jections, as represented by him, which are usually employed in deprecation of that important change : " We may premise as maxims or postulates, those truths or facts about which all, or nearly all, the witnesses are agreed. These facts or truths are the following : " Ist. That s groat psetlon of the labouring population is without employment. " 2ndly. That the average price of labour is about 10d. per day. " 3dly. That the labouring classes subsht cm a species c( food capable only of supperilag ulna esisteace in the lowest state. " 4thly. That the supply of this food is precarious, and the failure of it is attended with extreme suffering, arising from want and contagious disease. "sthl. That the number of destitute poor in Ireland is exceedingly great; and though few of them die of actual want, great numbers of them perish gradually of inanition, or are carried off by chronic or inflammatory diseases, pro duced by wet, cold, and hunger. " athly. That the expense of providing food for an Irish pauper varies from two to three pence a day, but in no case is found to exceed the latter sum. " 7thly. That excepting fever hospitals, county infirma ries, dispensaries, and lunatic asylums, there is no provision made by kw for the Irish poor. "ably. That the member of the unemployed, as well as the deetftute poor, less been exceedingly increased, and their sufferings proportionably aggravated, by the system which has prevailed for some years, and still prevails, of ejecting the smaller tenantry from their holdings, and consolidating firms. " 9thly. That the burden of supporting the poor and desti. tut*, as they are now susported, is borne principally, and al. most exclusively, by the industrious or middling classes of society. " 10thly. That it would be advisable so to equalize that bunko, se that it might be shared in just proportion by all the owners of property in Ireland. " llthly. That the Legislature is imperatively called on by the actual state of the labouring classes, and of the desti tute poor in Ireland, to devise some means whereby relief may be afforded to them. " It is contended by those who are opposed to the intro duction of a poor rate in Ireland— " Ist. That the poor are so numerous, that if a provision be made for them by law, they will consume all the produce of the land—in other words, eat up the rental of the country. " 2ndly. That whatever is given by the possessors of pro perty for the maintenance of the poor is deducted from a espied to be otherwise employed in productive labour, and sets as a continual drain upon the resources of the country, or ass drawback from her ordinary and legitimate means of improvement. " fidly. That a legal provision for the poor invites to idle ness, and renders the poor improvident. " 4thly. That such provision tends to narrow the exercise of charity, and to weaken not only the des of neighbourly kindness, but even of filial and parental affection. " &illy. That if a provision for the poor wets prescribed by law, there could not be found in the several districts or parishes in Ireland persons fit and able to carry into effect the provisions of such law. " 6thly. That the abuses inherent in the English system of poor laws are evidence of the inevitable mischief to arise from a system of poor laws, if introduced into Ireland. " 7tbly. That the sufferings of the Irish poor may be more beneficially and effectually relieved by the correction of abuses in the raising and expenditure of the monies now levied by local assessment, and by that general improve ment likely to arise from Individual enterprise, and from public works, to be designed and aided by Government, and carried as under their direction and controul. fithly. That Ireland is at present in a state of tran sition, as England and Scotland were at former periods, and therefore she will, like these countries, work out of her pre sent state of suffering to a state of comfort or affluence. "9t y. That the poor have no claim, founded on jus tice, to a peevish= being made for them at the expense of the rich, or of those possessed of property. _ _ In reply to the assertion that the poor are so nu merous that a poor-rate for their maintenance would consume all the produce of the land, or, in other words, eat up the whole rental of the country, the 1 author says that a legal provision for all the poor is not contemplated, but only for the aged, infirm, or helpless. Moreover, Dr. Doyle himself has admit ted that actual starvation is of rare occurrence in Ireland, although sickness, decrepitude, and their consequence death from premature old age—are unhappily far from being so. It is true, on the other hand, that very great and substantial assistance is frequently afforded to the more destitute among the people, but it is chiefly, if not entirely, by the industrious classes, upon whom this practice of humane offering to the relief of those about them falls as a most severe and op pressive burden. If, however, they (the middle classes) have already borne the whole of that pres sure, and thereby warded off actual famine from the poor, can it be contended that a little further aid would devour the whole " rental" of the country, which, with those in the enjoyment of it is now al together excepted from any share in the contri bution ? To the next objection, that " whatever is given to the maintenance of the poor is withdrawn from productive capital," we are not sorry or surprised that Dr. Doyle has, with great eloquence, given that indignant answer, which so heartless and mon strous a contempt for all the duties of Christian charity deserves from every generous or conscienti ous being : " This argument, if admitted to its full extent, would not only repeal the Gospel law of charity, but justify the savages in North America, who used to put to death, or leave to perish without re gard to the voice of nature or of blood, those of their respective tribes who, through age or infir mity, were unable to join in the chase, or share in their wars. It would invite us to adopt, among the maxims of our political economy, not the non intercourse system' of Malthus, but the practical science of the Chinese, who are said to guard against domestic want, by the prudent exercise of in fanticide. To such maxims, and to such practices, we in this country, may one duy be driven, if abstract theories be allowed to combat successfully against the first principles of nature, and the first duties of man. What ! if it be true that ' there must be always poor in the land'—if it be true that he ' who sees a brother suffer want, and shuts the bowels of compassion against him, hash not the charity of Goo abiding in him;'—if it be true, that not to feed the hungry min in the day of his utmost need, is to imbrue uur !muds in his inno cent blood, how can we athuit to discussion, as if it were doubtful, the ob!islitiou attaclavti to all property, of maintaining out of it the lielples.. and destitute—the stranger, the widow, and the orphan ' " But it is said, 'that what isgiven to their sup port, is deducted from capital to be otherwise em ployed in productive labour. This is objected to by the advocates of the poor, and it is objected without remorse by those who justify luxurious living—the keeping of dogs, and horses, and servants, without limit or employment. These persons say that what is thus expended or consumed, returns to the trades man, the merchant, and agriculturist. Be it s:'. But if the rich encourage tuts and agriculture by useless and luxurious consumption—if the capital thus expended by them be not withdrawn from productive labour, bow can it be said that the food and raiment furnished to the pauper is a draw. back from the resources of the country ? We may import spices from the east, and extr act gems from the depths of the ocean—we may colect, for our amusement, the beasts of the earth, the fowls of the air, and the fishes of the sea—we may gratify all our appetites, whether regular or unruly—we may expend upon the idle, the licentious, the pro • lane, the fruits oflahour and the products of indus tiy—without trenching upon the capital to be em• ployed in productive labour ; but if from our exces ses and fictitious wants w•e deduct a mite for thu widow, or a crust for the orphan, industry will perish, and the state decay ! The poor rate, it is true, will not be sown in the ground, and the food and raiment given to the pauper will not increase and multiply ; but the precious wines we consume, Lila gor geous palaces we inhabit, the dogs and horses wc employ for pleasure, the pampered hordes who feast in our halls—these—all these are no deduction from productive labour ! " But who are they who advance this paradox They are the men who are forced to confess that the accumulation of wealth in large masses, whether by the laws of inheritance, by speculation in the publi,! funds, or by successful efforts in trade, is among the chief causes of the disorganised state of society in these kingdoms. And yet, whilst this is allowed by them, they oppose, with all their might, the making any deduction from these masses of property for the relief of that pauperism which this same accumu lation of wealth has greatly tended to produce. There is not sense or consistency to be fouud in the arguments of those who, sparing the rich would leave the poor to lie as an incubus upon the reaily productive classes—upon those classes whose ca pital is small, who have not wherewith either to stock or till their farms to advantage, or to conduct their trade with freedom and convenience. But this objection, like the former allegation, is employed to amuse the public mind, by specious theories, which impose on the uneducated, but which have no foundation in truth, or in the realities of social life. This argument, as has been seen, if once admitted, would subvert the gospel, and justify the destruction of human life. And ,:hen ex amined ea to its bearing upon the employment of capital, is found as inapplicable to that subject as it would be to the theory of the winds." We shall proceed on another day with Dr. Doyle's representation of his views in favour of the claims of our poor Irish neighbours to some legalised pro vision from the lands which are rendered, through their ill-remunerated toil, a source of opulence to others, who feel not for them. MONEY-FINDING EXTR.ii'I:9INARY. BURTON-UPON-TRENT, JeN E 9.—For amid days past a curious scene has presented itself at Tutbury, distant about fire mires from Burton upon-Trent, and noted for the ruins of its ca,tle. A new cut of watercourse has lately been made, which has affected the height of the water in the regular course of the river (the Dove.) On this account it has been deemed necessery to lower this bed of the river immediately below the bridge. In doing this the labourers discovered, amongst the stones and gravel, a quantity of small pieces of coin, which proved to be silver, and of the reign of Edward the Fi:st. On mote minute investigation, it appea-ed as though one of the buttresses of the bridge, in a direct line for 40 or 50 yards, from the whole bed of the river, was one entire mass of coin. On Wednesday there were hundreds of labourers and others, at work the whole day, exhuming this long-concealed treasure. It is not the slightest exaggeration to state, that upwards of 200 pieces of silver coin have been brought up at one time in the shovel. On the most moderate possible calculation, more than 20,000 pieces were found on Wednesday. Single parties found upwards of 1,500. The coins, which are evi dently of the reign of Edward the First, appear to have originally been of the value of 4d. There are at least five distinct coinages of the same reign.— The most common (and of this there are at least 100 to one of the other kind) has a front face of the above monarch, the reverse having a cross, some with " London," and others " Canterbury," very legibly struck in the die. Another kind has also a full face of the monarch, in a kind of tri angle, " Edw. It." being very legible, the reverse having a cross, some with " Dublin," and others " Waterford," struck in the die. The third kind has a profile of the monarch. The coins are in a very good state of preservation. It would appear as though a trench had original ly been made, and filled with these pieces. old inhabitants say that the present course of the river is of mo dern date. When a large quantity has been dug up at a time, it was observed that they lay in the manly substance, and not in the gravel which forms the outer bed of the river. The pieces were sold at the onset at from 10s. to 12s. per hundred. Wednesday evening the market bad l owere d to about 7s. 6d. per hundred. At this price great pro fit might be obtained. From 20 to 25 weigh an ounce, and the silversmiths in Burton have been giving 4s. per ounce for them. A brass spur was found with a shovel-full of coins, evidently of the same antiquity. The truth of the above I can myself vouch for, having been an eye-witness of the facts. 1 purchased upwards of a hundred of the coins at a penny each ;• but I was blamed ex. ceedingly for my extravagance, though they must be worth double that suet for old silver. never saw so strange a sight in my life as the people at work in the river —men, women, and children, all striving which should find the most." mememensmssieeemor Mr. M'Neile did not preach yesterday at St. Clement Danes, to the disappointment of onn v persons who attended in expectation of hearing something like a repetition of bis late ser.non in that church. This gentleman is not a regular preacher at St. Clements, but attended in the lib.fence of the rector, Mr. Gurney. The curate is IMr. Vaughan, whom some persons by mistake have confounded with Mr. M'Neile. STATEMENT OF THE RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS. Dr. THE HUSH DISTRESS COMMITTEE. 1831. £ s. d.
