By F. B.

The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his crrea t discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

We don't get more than our share ce, and we are obliged to keep a pretty sharp look .. to get it ; but at the same time, it is not the ease that Scotland is overlooked ; and in this document, though I will not trouble you with reading it just now, there are some very important matters, such as the new Register-office, the Industrial Museum, new post-offices in Dundee and Perth, improvements at Holyrood, &c. Now, about the Reform .Bid--I don't agree with my lion. friend and colleague, and that ig almost the only thing on which we dotal agrP'e. I anticipate no danger from that bill of the government. I am not afraid of letting the working classes have the franchise. (Hear.) I think, on the other hand, that they must be let into the franchise, and I know no better way of making them good citizens and better citizens. If they are not so good a s we wish them—which I don't by any means ad wit —I no way of binding them more closely to the classes above them than by allowing them the mutual. advantage and privilege of the franchise; and therefore in my views of reform I have nothing to add and nothing to retract from the expressions I have used on similar occasions. Ever since I was in office, as far back as 1851,1 have maintained the same opinions, both in public and in private, an d I have no fear whatever of the reduction of the frai l _ chile interfering with the bulwark of the Constitu tion; and as to the propriety of introducing any mea sure on this matter, that depends entirely on its prospects of success, but most assuredly I shall main tain for the future the very same principles I have maintained for the past. (Cheers.) The Lord Advo cate then proceeded to speak for above an hour on the annuity-tax question, vindicating his recent measure,,ancl sho veing _that _every_pr a incipladt ; con- _ tamed Lad been borrowed from former bills which had received the support of those who now opposed him. He ° Concluded a very masterly defence with honour and integrity of his conduct in tne matter by saying—l value the honour of the position I hold as the representative of this great community more than I can tell you, t l h ia e n re ds is t o h n a e n and there is no exertion and no sacrifice, consistent would not make to retain it; but when I know and self-respect, that I that I have now settled a controversy of 30 years maintain, itnw ; principles aii tnh ,b ut whatever that wh icyh feelings al o iv f ne t g e li sp Ira proved d o k f toeunlmstruggled Par liamentaryti ao t mine,o l ea s h a' a lonlyl always s part so remember with gratification, and that is that I was many ablerl fe, mainly instrumental in passing this Annuity-t ax Bill. (Tremendous cheering and hissing.) Mr. W. CHAMBERS moved a vote of thanks to the hon. members. The SOLICITOR•GENERAL seconded the motion. Mr. THOMAS MENZIES, after some strong obser vations, which were delivered amid shouting, hiss ing, and cheering;and in which he condemned the conduct of both the hon. gentlemen as "perfidious," moved the following amendment : "That this meeting, considering the arbitrary and unconstitutional character of the recent Act, which professes to abolish, but in reality proposes to perpetuate, the annuity-tax, and of the part taken by the members for the city in introducing and promoting that measure, hereby declare that the members have lost the confidence of their con stituents, and the meeting .requests them to resign." Mr. A. KERR seconded the amendment. The LORD PROVOST then proceeded to put the amendment and the inotion to the meeting, amid considerable uproar. The numbers were pretty nearly balanced, and the Lord Provost said he had considerable difficulty in deciding on which side the majority lay, but he rather thought it was in favour of the motion. The announcement was re ceived with great cheering and hissing. On the motion of Mr. BLACK, a vote of thanks was passed to the Lord Prevost for his conduct in the chair. The meeting then quietly dispersed. INDIA AND CHINA. of course, such is dependent on supplies and the advices of the home market. The total supply for the season is still estimated not to exceed 400 chops. Country Greens—One chop of fine Moyune is down, and is likely to be taken at extreme rates. Price is likely to regulate the supply, and it is considered probable that a good deal may be diverted to this market, though it will be late in arriving. At Macao tea continues to arrive, and prices keep steady. The Janet Willis has filled up at this port, and the Rhin is loading. .(Uproar, and signs of impatience.) Corning to the Reform Bill, he said, like many other men, I have formed a notion of the manner in which Parliament should be reformed. This theory I have repeatedly propounded to my constituents; and, when the question was before the House of Commons I felt that. I should be guilty of unfaithfulness if, when the Ministry appeared to be venturing on a danger ous course—(hisses and cheers)—l would have con • sidered myself unworthy of being your represents tive—(A voice, " So you are")—if I had refrP,lled from publicly giving my reasons for differi' it g from a material part of the bill then under consideration. (Loud cheers and hisses, and a voice, " Treaelieren ' Adam." Laughter.) My lord and gentlemen, I can assure you that I felt it no easy task to screw up my courage to sacrifice the good opinion of statesmen whom I admired and followed, and the approbation of friends whom 1 highly valued. The theory I then maintained ova:: the same as I have again and again propounded in public meetings at home, that the system of Parliamentary representation is a mere machine— an instrument for the promotion of good govern ment, and that if it fret out of gear or defective, it should be repaired and improved, but that the proposed alteration must first be proved to be neces sary to the well-working of the machine. (" Oh, oh," and a voice, " You're a hi. , 11 Tory.") I hold that the franchise is not a ri~iit, but a trust. I maintain that it is a sacred trust to be exercised for the benefit of the community, and that the only claim that any class can have for being invested with this trust must be founded on their qualifica tions to exercise it ; and before any change should be made it should first be proved that the commu nity will he benefited by it. Now, here let me ob serve that I distinctly and decidedly again and again declared that I would not pledge myself to any plan of Parliamentary Reform, but would leave myself free to be guided by circumstances. (Hear, hear, and hisses.) At that time, and in the circum stances we were then placed, I was disposed to re commend £6. And why ? Because, in the first place, Lord J. Russell had moved and carried a resolution against Mr. Disraeli proposing, among other things, £6 as the limit of the franchise, and. on that occa sion I voted with my party in what was really a party motion—(hisses)—and thus got in some de gree committed, although if I had voted on the other side I should have been worse committed still, for then Mr. Disraeli, for the Protectionist party, showed their willingness to offer the bribe to the Radicals, or to come even lower ; and Mr. Bright, besides many of those who glory in the name of Advanced Liberals—(cheers and laughter), would hardly be content with a £5 franchise, but would only take it as an instalment. (" Hear," and a voice, " Quite right, too.") All parties in the House of Commons appeared to me to be committed to the lowering of the franchise, and in the circumstances I was disposed to recommend the highest limit that was likely to be got; but when the question came to be looked at by members more carefully they found that the numbers of the new constituency would be so great that they would give an undue preponderance to one class, and that class the lowest (cries of " Oh, oh !"), and surely he would be a bold man who would maintain that, for the purpose of improving the machine, the inhabitants of houses between £lO and £6 rent would infuse into it more intelligence and independence than the inhabitants of houses at £lO and upwards. (A voice, "So they would.") If they arc no more than equal to those already intrusted with the franchise, they would not improve, but would most probably encumber the machine (cries of " Oh, oh !") ; and if they are not equal in qualifications, then they will infuse a deteriorating principle into it. (Hisses, and a voice in the gallery, " We are the people.") About this time that very class of men—the skilled workmen—indicated the use to which they would put political power if intrusted to their hands, by entering into one of tho most dangerous and suicidal combinations (Hear," and hisses) ; for a mere delusion they sacrificed the interests of the public, their own comfort, and the health and happiness of their wives and children. (Cheers, and a voice, " Mind the Queen's Park meeting,") At the same time, Mr. Potter, the leader of the London strike, in his evidence before a committee of the House of Commons, testified that the London Secret Committee of the Trades' Union could influence 600,000 workmen in all parts of the kingdom. (A voice, " Prove it," and " That is false.") When all these circumstances were fairly brought to light and considered, many of the mem bers, and even some of those who rejoice in the name of Advanced Liberals, were staggered, and coincided in my views. (Hisses.) I will only say that I was convinced then, and am convinced still, that what I stated in the House of Commons was the truth—(hisses and cheers)—and I considered it a sacred duty to declare it, whatever might be the con sequence. (Prolonged cheers.) Ido not object to a fair proportion of the working classes being ad mitted to the franchise, but don't let us be swamped by them. (Hisses, and a voice, " Resign.") lam not unwilling to admit a large proportion of the working classes. (Impatience.) What I say is this, I consider that a safe plan would be to give votes to the holders of property yielding 40s. a year, whether a freehold or not ; and I would reduce the county franchise from £5O to £lO. (Cheers and hisses.) From what I have seen of the House of Commons, I doubt if any party will be able to con struct a spick-and-span new Reform Bill. Al though the bit-by-bit procedure has been ridiculed, I am convinced that it is the only one that will succeed; and if Ministers would adopt Mr. Locke King's measure for reducing the county franchise, I have little doubt that it would be carried. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Black then entered into a lengthened defence of his conduct in regard to the Annuity Tax Bill, and in having sup ported the Lord Advocate's Bill, which offended thd Voluntary Dissenters, while he sacrificed his own bill of 1E57, which satisfied them. He said that, with Parliament showing diminishing majo rities for the Church-rates Bill, it might have taken 10 or even 20 years in carrying; and, having no chance of carrying his own bill, he gave his sup• port to that of the Lord-Advocate, that the impor taut advantages which it conferred should not be lost to the community. -- - - - INDIA. The following is the letter of our (Tioies) Cal cutta correspondent :-- CALCUTTA, Nov. 23. The most important announcement that I can make in this letter is this, that the Nana is still living. He is cucamped with three or ibur thou sand followers in Thibet, just beyond the Nepaul frontier, and in a country over NN hich Jung Balla door can claim no supremacy. He has plenty of money, and is able to subsist his followers without committing depredations on the villagers. He is thus not only tolerated but cherished, and the inhabitants have aided him in his attempt to con ceal the fact of his existence from our authorities. It may appear strange thus to assert that a man, the story of whose dath has been so circumstan tially told, regarding whose demise the members of the Oude Commission, in their report recently published, assert that no reasonable doubt can exist, is still alive and at the head of a military force. I have, nevertheless, the best reasons for knowing it to be true. The Supreme Government is likewise cognizant of the fact, and has debated as to the proper course to be pursued under such circum stances. It has come to the resolution not to interfere actively in the matter, but to keep a watchful eye on the frontier upon which a descent from Thibet would appear most feasible. Admit ting, then, the fact of the existence of the Nana, the question arises, how, up to the present moment has he succeeded in deluding and hoodwinking not only the British public arid the authorities, but the people m of India, many even of, his former satellites and 'Meng F.ieititingl3Tifttidodi. pal info the snare and declared his implicit credence in the story of his demise. He must be indeed a man fertile in expedients who could deceive a whole people and an entire magistracy, all more or less interested in his life, on a point on which at first sight there would appear to be little scope for deception. The story, of which - we have at present but faint outlines, will, when disclosed in its integrity, doubtless take a place among the most strange of the very many strange incidents of personal adventure in which Indian history abounds. Up to the month of August last not a doubt remained on the minds of anyone as to the fate of the Nana. It was believed that he had died of the fever in the jungles. This was asserted by his fellow rebels and by everyone who had had any opportunity of inquiring into the matter. The statement was accepted far and wide. his former retainers of Bit boor believed it, and two of his wives left behind in Hindostan showed their faith in the rumour by performing that religious ceremony which constitutes them irrevocably widows, Yet all this time the Nana, Bala Rao his brother, Deoi Buksh, his commander-in-chief, were alive and at the head of an army of some thousands of men, with elephants in abundance, and some 30 fieldpieces. The course they adopted is briefly stated as follows : —When in November and December last year a British force under Colonel. Holditch advanced, with the permission of Jung Bahadoor, towards the Nepauleso frontier, that eminent Minister, foresee seeing all the credit which must result from doing that himself which otherwise we should have ac complisbed without him, suddenly gave evidence that he was going to support us in real earnest. The notice of his intentions was conveyed to the rebels, then divided into bodies, and acknowledging two distinct authorities. One of these, with whom Khan Bahadoor Khan, Mummoo Khan, and other Maho medan chieftains of Oude and Rohilcund were con - nected, acted up to the dictates of their creed, and, wearied with a hopeless resistance, accepted a fate which appeared to them to be sooner or later inevi table. The Nana and his party, on the other hand, resolved to have one more stroke for life, and pos sibly, under more favourable auspices, for power., From the statement furnished by a native who has just escaped from their camp, it appears that they moved northwards into the hills, and marched 15 days directly onwards without halting. Before doing this each of the Chiefs cut off the little fin ger of his right hand, and caused funeral obsequies to be performed over it. This was done with the fullest ceremony accorded to a corpse. The finger was burnt, the usual signs of mourning were made, and it appeared to all not in the secret that it was actually the Chief who was thus disposed of. The rumour of this occurrence speedily spread, and was everywhere believed. How could it be otherwise, when some were able to assert that they were actually present at the obsequies ? This was the account brought by Khan Bahadoor Khan and others to Lucknow at the beginning of the present year, and this the nature of the evidence upon which the Oude Commission came to the con clusion that the Nana, Bala Rao, and Azi Moollah had perished miserably in the jungles. It was under cover of this ruse that the Nana and his party moved into the hills. After marching 15 days they came upon the mountains which separate Nepaul from Thibet. They moved beyond these to a little town called Thoowaria, where, at the time of the escape of the informant—last August—they were yet encamped. Of their manner of life, and of the resolution at which our Government has arrived, I have spoken above. It is possible, however, that the matter may not rest here. Sir H. Rose is on his way to Goruckpore, our frontier station in the direction of the Nepaulese and Thibet hills. He will there have an opportunity of conversing with the escaped native, and of compari ng hi s statement with others which I am sure have since been re ceived, as to the nature of the locality and its facility of access to the plains. A deadly enemy, having at his disposal some 4,000 or 5,000 men, and 30 guns, might commit for the moment terrible depredations. Although the Nana will, if lie knows his own in terest, keep quiet:, it would be unwise to leave any portion of our frontier to tempt his inroads, and this, you may be well assured, Sir Hugh Rose will not do. TILE NAVY. Preparations on an extensive Feale have been made at Blackwall by Messrs. Mare and Co. for launching her Majesty's iron-clad screw steamship Warrior to morrow. A s the launch is expected to be attended with rnbre than ordinary difficulties their lordships Lave instructed the authorities at Woolwich to render whatever assistance may be required. A large amount of coloured bunting has been sur'plied for decorations, and cables, hydraulic cranes, &e., have been provided in case of mechani cal force of great power being rendered necessary. An Admiralty order was yesterday received at Woolwich and other dockyards announcing their lordships' approval of the proposed plan of forming a proportion of the storehouse labourers into an established first class, with an increased pay of 6d. per day, or 21s. per week, instead of 18s. as at pre sent. The arrangement is to date from the 27th of December. Her Majesty's screw corvette Scylla, Commander it. Lambert, and screw frigate Amphion, Capt. T. Cochrane, left Valetta on the 15th inst.—the former for the Piraeus and the Levant, and the latter for Sicily. Her Majesty's line-of.battle ship Orion, Capt. J. Frere, left on the 20th inst. for Corfu, a vessel from that island coming down there to take her place. The Victor Emmanuel, Capt. W. Clif ford, C. 8., is still there under repair, and will take a long time to complete. Besides the Hibernia receiving-ship, flag of Rear. Admiral Codrington, there were only three British men-of-war at Malta, the Victor Emmanuel, the Melpomene, and the Assurance gunboat, which last reached there on the 22d of December from Corfu with despatches and a mail. A letter from Corfu of the 18th inst. says : "The Assurance gunboat will leave to-morrow with a mail for Malta. , The gunboat Foxhound arrivod yesterday from Malta, and is still in harbour. The Caesar line-of-battle ship came into port on the night of the 14th inst. ; and a liner, I believe the James Watt, left for Malta or Naples on the following morning. This morning the Mars and London sailed out of the channel for a cruise, and as I am writing the Marlborough, which had returned from a cruise of two days, has hoisted sail, and is beating about the port. I expect all the ships that aro here at present will leave to-day ; but it is not likely that Admiral Martin will allow the fleet to spend their Christmas at sea." In my letter via Bombay I gave you a concise account of the severe measures taken by the Com mander-in-Chief at Dinapore, and I referred to the excellent effect which had resulted from his prompt and resolute conduct on that occasion. Letters from several other stations have since been received, and in all it is asserted that some such measure was ab solutely necessary. Disci Wine was becoming a mere mockery, and, bad not some severe step been taken, the orders of officers in many places would have come to be disregarded. Sir Hugh has nipped the evil in the bud, and by the sacrifice of one mutineer and the disgrace of one corps has put an end to insubordination. In India his conduct on this trying occasion has been loudly applauded, and, being th e s tron ges t in stance of the many in which Sir Hugh has shown a determination to be guided by the principles of impartiality and even-handed justice, it has sufficed to confirm the anticipations that were formed; and to secure for him the respect and affection of officers and men. Il is Excellency was approaching Benares when last heard of; thence he was to proceed to the frontier station of Goruckpore before joining his camp at Cawnpore. Lord Canning left Calcutta for his tour in the north-west on the 20th inst. I enclose the latest commercial news:— Leiters have been received from Messina to the 18th of December, announcing the arrival there of 2,500 Piedmontese troops ; 1,500 more were ex pected. They were very well received by the people. The commandant of the citadel still held out. It was not believed he would surrender till after the fall of Gaeta, unless forced to do so. Per fect tranquillity reigned throughout the island. Preparations were being made for the election of the deputies to sit in the forthcoming Italian Par liament.. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty:—G. R. Hope, mate Ariadne ; A. W. Miller, master's-assistan, t to tl - to the Donegal; and W. F. E. Mprison, Paymaster, to the Trincomalee. Government securities have been dull ; there seem to be mote sellers than buyers. There is a report of a rise at Bombay of 2 per cent. in the rates all round.

Public Works Five per Cents The LORD-ADVOCATE, after having risen up and sat down three time, unable to make himself heard amidst the clamour with which he was received, at length obtained a hearing by the interposition of the Chair. After some preliminary remarks, he said in the last session of Parliament, though there vas not a great deal of Imperial business transacted, we in Scotland had our fair share of the results. (Hear, hear.) We carried ten important mea sures. We carried, among other things, no doubt, this Annuity Tax Bill—(laughter, hooting, and cheers) —but we carried some other things, which, though not equally exciting, may be equally im portant. We carried, in the first instance, the Prisons Bill, by which we had an opportu_ nity of redressing what I considered a great • • injus tice—l mean the proportion of rates pay able be tween the burgh and the county. There a bill of very considerable consequence Which was alsoeve passed for Sheriff Court accommodation. We passed a bill also in re gar d to the fl l e i r e r a i n r. g ) fisheries, one in regard to the census, and also a bill for the Industrial Museum in Edinburgh, and I am happy to say that the plans for that building have now been approved, and that it will be con structed witkout any delay. We passed the Titles to Lands Bill, a bill for the amendment of the bankruptcy law, the and we passed a bill for in ventory duty on heritable securities. N o w, I say that this, if not a brilliant, is at least a respect able bud get—espeeially for a Parliament of which it is said that they talk much but do little. It is, at 'all events, enough to show that we have not . been idle, bold in my hand a document that Rupee 3 8 to 3 12 7, New Five-and-a-Half per Cents.

SERIOUS _RAILWAY ACCIDB.II7. An accident of a serious character occurred near Gainsborough in connexion with the last through train from Manchester to Hull on Wednesday night last. It appears that the railway company are in the habit of attaching a third class carriage to this trait at Retford, which is invariably placed behind the guard van. On arriving at Gainsborough about 8 o'clock several third class passengers were booked, and altogether there were about 20 passengers in this carriage at this time. All went on well for about a quarter of a mile 0. fter leaving Gainsborough, but on nearing Thonock-lain bridge the passengers in this last carriage began to ri9tice that something was wrong, the carriage jumping about in quite an extraordinary manner. Presently there was a crash, the windows broke (flying inwards), and the carriage fell down on one side, one of the wheels having come off. The other wheel soon followed, and the end compartments of the carriage were gra dually smashed to pieces. When the bottom gave way half a dozen passengers were thrown between the lines of rails, while others had the greatest difficulty in keeping themselves in the carriage by clambering over into the other compartment. One man, named W. Cock, a potato merchant, clung for about two miles by one arm to the window frame, unlit both window and door gave way. A man, his wife, and child, named Trevetbick, were among the passengers. The man became insensible as soon as he was pitched out, but fortunately he *as not seriously injured. The child was subsequently picked up about 20 yards from him, among a heap of snow, quite free from injury. The wife pre sented a most remarkable spectacle. All her clothes were completely stripped from her, even her stays and boots being found cut into shreds and lying away from her. Strange to say the injuries she received were not at all of a serious character. The most serious ease is that of a young man named John William Restrick, a mechanic from Grimsby, who sustained a fracture of the skull; he is not expected to recover. Mr. Burgess, cattle dealer, near Grimsby, received some slight injuries, but was expected to be able to proceed home this (Friday) morning. The other persons injured re main at Gainsborough under the care of three medical gentlemen of the town. They were also visited yesterday by Mr. Harrison, the company's surgeon, who pronounced them all to be going on as well 'as could be expected. It seems that the accident was not discovered Nefore the train reached Blyton 4t miles frum Gainsborough, not withstanding that the cries of the whole of the 20 passengers were terrific. SNOWSTORM IN BRlSTOL—Between seven and eight o'clock on Wednesday night snow commenced falling in Bristol and the neighbourhood, and continued to descend with little intermission throughout the whole of yesterday. The traffic by rail and road was seriously impeded, and' the fall was greater than has been known for many years.

The members for Edinburgh, Mr. Adam Black and Mr. Moncreiff, Lord Advocate, met their con stituents in the Music Hall there on Monday, and the meeting being one of unusual interest owing to the keen controversy that divides the city on the subject of the Annuity Tax Act passed last session, whereby, though the tax is reduced one half, the voluntary dissenters will not be able to evade it as hitherto, the hall was crammed within 10 or 15 minutes after the doors were opened. The number present was probably 2,200 to 2,400 ; and the meet ing seemed nearly equally balanced between sup porters and opponents. The members were followed to the platform by a large number of leading citi zens, including Sir W. Gibson Craig, Sir William Dunbar, M.P., Sir W. Johnston, Mr. Wemyss, M.P., Mr. Maitland, Solicitor General for Scot land, Mr. W. Chambers. Mr. R. Chambers, Pro fessors Pillans, Christison, and Blackie, Capt. Sir William Hamilton, &c. The Lord Provost occupied the chair. Mr. BLACK was received by the whole assemblage rising, one half waving the hats and hurrahing, and the other half hissing and hooting. The up roar continued for several minutes, during which cries of " Order, order," " Turn him out," &c., were heard. Partial quiet having at length been ob tained, Mr. Black said it was not his intention to imitate these hon. members who during the last session of Parliament inflicted upon the house interminable speeches which seemed to have no other object but to show how long and how often they could speak, as if they were trying for a wager. (Hear.) I can assure you that I neither speak here nor in the House of Commons but with reluctance, and never unless I think I have some thing to say. (Cheers and hisses.) I would not have troubled you upon this occasion unless I had suspected you might charge me with want of eou rage had I hesitated to defend my public conduct. (Hurrahs and hisses.) The questions that came before Parliament last session were so numerous and so momentous that if I were to make observa tions on them all I should exhaust the patience of the most indulgent. I will only hurriedly glance at a few of the most important, in order that I may discuss at greater length the two measures in which I took a more prominent part. (Hisses and counter cheers.) Early in the session Mr. Glad stone, in a wonderful display of oratory, introduced the question of the French Treaty and the- Customs Bill. (A voice, " Come to the annuity tax.") I considered it my duty to vote in favour of both, as I have no doubt they will lead to a great extension of the commerce of both countries, and promote the material wealth and the happiness of two neigh bouring nations, comprising between 60,000,000 and 70,000,000 of people ; and what I consider of even more importance than the extension of com merce is the tendency of mutual intercourse and the interchange of commodities to cement the pacific relations of the t wo countries—(cries of " Humbug," " Shame," and cheers and hisses)—and, instead of spending countless millions for war or protection against each other, I trust they will cultivate the arts of peace, and unite their sympathies in favour of light and liberty among the great community of nations. Another important measure which I sup ported passed the House of Commons, but which I cannot help thinking was followed by very unfor tunate consequences—the repeal of the Excise duty on paper. (" Of course," and laughter.) The second reading was carried by a majority of 53 in March ; but in the third reading, in May, this was reduced to 9, and had there been no Scotch mem bers in the house it would have been lost by 11. And when the members began to consider the effect of the expenditure for the war in China, and for the proposed fortifications of the country, they were led to regret the loss of the million tram the repeal of the paper duty. This I believe was the cause of the great change in the division between the second and the third reading; and it was this that em boldened the House of Lords to do what lam con vinced was an unconstitutional act—(cheers)— to reject a money bill—to refuse to pass a bill forming apart of the ways and means of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. I agree with Mr. Gladstone in considering that a gigantic innovation. This was felt by members on both sides of the house to be a damaging blow, from which it was difficult to find any way of recovery. Lord Palmerston made the best that could be made of it—(No, no)—and in a very statesmanlike speech moved a resolution asserting the rights of the Commons, which met with nearly unanimous support. Another motion connected with the paper duties brought on a crisis which threatened the stability of the Ministry—the repeal of the Customs duty on paper, which there was a strong impression ought not to be passed as long as the French prohibited the exportation of rags. This question was con verted into a vote of want of confidence, and there is little doubt that had it been lost the Ministry would have resigned; it was only carried by a majority of 33 in a very full house, the whips on both sides having exerted themselves to the utmost.

How many limbs have Holloway's oint ment saved oven after amputation had been decided on? Both in hospitals and private practice this soothing and healing ointment has reduced inflammation, checkecrsup puration, and conducted the most desperate cases to a per fect cure. Persons afflicted with bad legs, erysipelas, tumours, &c., should resort at once to llolloway's oirdt ment and pills, which will prove certain restoratives. The very first application of the ointment will lessen inflam mation and diminish pain till healthy action is induce 4 by steady perseverance, and future continuance with the lreat- L ment establishes the cure.
