LE DRAYS "TREATISE ON LOSS OF TEETH." Among the various disorders of the Mouth, there is none snore destructive than Scurvy, which on first entering the Gums causes them to bleed on the most trifling occasions, and pro &ices the most offensive and frequently putrid breath. A soft substance invariably accumulates around the necks of the T ee th, penetrates i nto the Gums, which gradually baste away, and the Teeth then become loose, and drop o u t w h o l e f rom t h e i r soc k ets, and it is well known th si the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. , On this subject a distinguished L ec t urer ma k es the following Z o servations :--" When the disgusting effects of this accumu '4, tien are coneidereg, it would appear impossible that any per ;Mien could be necessary to induceersons to obviate so great uesed3ance even on their own account: or if they are too de to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by employ fi a skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the 4feteeses of eth ers , w h o possess more delicacy and propriety of el i 4ol g than tifeniselves.

Two hundred and fifty allotments are setapart for sale as above-mentioned, at th e price of 751. for each allotment, and applications for the same are to be made in writing to the un dersigned, which, if accompanied by a deposit of 101. in respect of each allotment, will entitle the applicant to receive separate land-orders for each town and rural section, with such priorities and rights of selection as hereinafter mentioned, in exchange for the residue of the purchase money. 3. The numbers sig n ifyi ng th e pr i or ity . of choice for the town sections have been selected on a fair average from the 1,000 numbers of choice, which have fallen to the Company in the general ballot above referred to. These selected numbers (particulars of which may be obtained at the Office in Plymouth, or at the New Zealand House, London), are de posited in a wheel, from which the purchaser's numbers will be drawn in the presence of three Directors, and of the appli cant, if he shall think proper to attend, either in person or by his agent. The purchasers will be entitled to such town sections as may have been chosen by the Company's Agents in virtue of the priority of choice signified by the number so respectively drawn. The purchasers will also bo entitled to select the rural sections from any land in the Plymouth Settlement, surveyed and declared open for choice as rural sections, at the time, and according to the order of presenting the land-order in the Colony, subject only to the regulations of the land-office for preserving fairness and regularity of choice. 4. The sum of 501., in respect of every 751. received for each allotment as above, will be transferred to the Emigration Fund, and a purchaser to the extent of 3001. will be entitled to an allowance from the said fund towards the passage of himself and family to the Colony, at the rate of 25/. per cent. on the amount of his purchase money. Provided that no party will be entitled to a larger allowance on the above -mentioned ac count, than will pay his own passage and that of his family (if any) according to the rates which will be issued from time to time by the Court of Directors. The residue of the fund will be expended in the conveyance of labouring emigrants to the settlement.

CH RONICLE.—The speech of. Sir Robert Peel last n*ht was what we declared it would le When he first announced his motion of want of confidence—a movement in a false direc tion. We stated then, and wo, now repeat, that he could not render a more essential se:vice to Ministers and to the comae try than by affording an opportunity:fora discustien, in the. course of which it would not his power, by any man oeuvring, to prevent the great euestion on which parties are now at issue, f rom being brought di st i nct l y before the nation. It was clear to every one _whwheard the Right Honourable Ba ronet, that his OWII . judgment condemned the course he was pursuing. He was evidently impreaSed by a cousciousness e that whatever result. hiS motion might have, it would tell against himself. It aas net the speech of a leader cheering on his troops to assured victory. A tone of hopelessness pervaded it. Instead of a bold arraignment of Mi nisters, on clear and • intelligible grounds, it was made up of assumptions of technical grounds of jus e tification of the course he was pursuing, and throughout the Right Hon. Baronet seemed to feel as if he were on his own trial. Every now and then we could perceive that he was de fending himself against his own party—as if he were answering the charges lately brought against him by the Times Journal of not doing enough, when out of office, to ensure his return to power. Sir Robert set out with stating, what no one would think of disputing, that a Ministry"ought to possess the collie dente of the House of Commons, apd he gave himself much unnecessary trouble to go over the parliamentary history of the country since the Revolution, to' prove that Ministers, • when they ceased to command 'MajOrnies in the House of Commons, usually resigned.. But though it may be ne cessary to command the con fid ence of the House . of Commons, it is not necessary to command the confidence of any one House of Commons. No prerogative of the Crown is more essen tial for the safe working of the Constitution, than the . power of appealing to the country, by a dissolution. With out such a power a House of Commons would, like the Long Parliament, become a permanently supreme power.. When Sir Robert observed that it is dangerous to set up the implied or supposed opinions of constituencies against their de clared and authorised organ, the House of Commons—that the House and the constituencies should. not be brought into this unseemly contest," he said what literally amounted to nothing. It was t r u e , if app li e d to an abstract House of Commons, but not true, if applied to any particular HQUSC; else why the power to dissolve when the Crown allows the country to judge be tween its servants and a Ifouse of Conimons? During a great part of the period travelled over by thii Right Honourable Ba ronet, Ministers usually resigned ut once on being outvoted, because in the then state Of the representation an appeal from a majority would have been an absurdity. Except. under such, very peculiar circumstances as those whiCh induced Mr. l'itt to appeal to the country when the coalition between North, Fox, and Burke had excited a ' strong feeling of indignation against them, there could he no hope from a dissolution. So long as a Ministry were to the taste of the boroughtnengeis, they commanded .a large majority, and the decrease of a large to a small majority was tantamount to defeat. But defective as the Reform Bill may still have left the representation, it has annihilated the boroughmongers, and it cannot now be said that the 'sal te individuals who returned: the Representatives to one - House - of Commons return the Re presentatives to its successor. The Reform Bill has made the prerogative of dissolution a'real• and 'substantive part of the Constitution. When it is allowed' that Ministers have the , power to dissolye Parliament, and appeal to the nation, the question is at an. end. They have no t, as 'Sir Robert Peel himself admits that. he did, continued to govern the country, with majoritieSagainst them, not only in the whole House,. but in Committees, for months, in a House of Commons summoned by himself, hut all theattempte of their opponents.l to possess themselves of 'power have been foiled. The Ministry have not, it is' true; a great_ majority, but Sir Robert will not contend that &minority is better than' a majority. TIMES.—In as far as Sir Robert• Peel's motion proposes fo affirm that " her Majesty's Ministers do not sufficiently possess the confidence of Parliament to enable them to carry measures which they deem essential to the welfare of the country," it only expresses, in a civil _.and-.ceremonious way, what those Ministers themselves can neither disguise nor disown. Indeed, from the night'whin theyeffected e re-entrance into Down ing -street up to the present Jammer - 4.16 y have been destituee , of all the attributes of office; except .its mere patronage and booty ; of real yower or porlatity they have none. Many of their mischievous' machinations have been ignominously defeated ; but, unless willethe'coneurrence and aid of the Con servative party (as in the Irish Tithe and Corporations Bill), not a single proposal of theirs of any imeortance—no, not cycle with O'Connell's tail at their Lack—have they been able to procure aeceptance for, from either branch of the Legislature, Whether we recur to theie home or colonial policy on matters which they have uniformly represented as essential to the public weal, we find, that so far from having commanded the confi dence of Parliament during any part of their, easeer, their whole Cabinet history has been a series of humiliating defeats. Their factious and predatory plan fur supplanting Slr Robert Peel's abolition of Chtirch-rates 7 -their •vite.attempt to suppress Pro testant worship in various parts of Ireland—their scandalous endeavour to discard religion from the general education of the people—the tyrannical coup d'etat whereby they sought to ex tinguish the free Constitution of Jamaica—their high-handed despotism in reference to the Canadian provinces —their nefa rious jobbery in the Newport-Monteegle affair—their guilty and alarmed oppoSitiontoMr. lierries's motion for the production of the public accounts—their base attempt to disfranchise Ludlew for having rejected that everlasting French lacquey of theirs, Monsieur De. Larpent—their heartless profligacy in having courted Itoyal favour at the expense of exposing Prince Albert to the perilous unpopularity inseparable from an exorbitant al lowance--their veualresistence to Lord Stanley's Bill for the' reform of the Irish registr:es—th e i r d esp i ca bl e pro j ect for a hi. qualification on behalf of O'Connell's myrmidons, while vet refusing the same privilege to Englishmen in a similar rank of life—their licentious registry-abortion (of which that offeesive piece of Irish favoritism was a part) be.gottentby their P o pi s h Attorney-General, but of which the immaculate Lord Mor peth consented to become the putative father—and finally, their last desperate sally upon British commerce, • by a reckless and premature assault upon some of its principal branches—on all these important points (what others have they successfully dealt with 7) , they have been arrested, exposed, handcuffed, and horse whipped —ay, to an extent unparalleled in the calendar of ' Ministerial degradation. Connecte.rwith the preceding proofs of Sir Robert Peel's proposition, " that the Queen's Minister's do not sufficiently possess the confidence of the House of Commons," it is necessary to bear in mind that this fact has been distinctly admitted, both by Lord Melbourne in the House of Peers, and also by Mr. Babingtien Macaulay, in a lugubrious harangue of his to the Edinhurgh electors. The same truth was forcibly pressed upon the Whigs by Viscount Howick in the Home of Commons, when, in justification . his retirement front the Mi n i s t ry , h e informed them, in a spirit wotehy of his noble sire, that though he should still continue in give them a discriminating and independent support, he could . not disguise troth hi mse lf th a t t h ey were rap i dly los ng their friends, and that neither the House nor the country reeosed in them the confidence necessary to an effie cient Government. The acknowledgment of Lard Melbourne, that "the worst possible Administration was that which could net carry its own measures," was abundantly corrobo rated, not only by Mr. Macaulay's confession of the weakness, uncertainty, and failure which night after night paralyzed their vulgar Liberalism, but by a series of Parliamentary discoin fitures which, while ratifying in thick succession the unguard ed admissions of those Ministers, showed that their continued . retention of .office, in spite of. ouch defeats, was as humiliating to their personal honour as it was repugnant to the Constitu tion of the country. Considering,•then, that the first part of Sir Robert Peel's motion has been repeatedly assented to by the Ministers themselves, the question naturally arises, what are the subterfuges by which they will sleek to parry the second part of it, which really contains its sting? Why, with the view of showing that their refusal to bow to the reiterated dis missals which they have received from Parliament, how much secret. it may have violated the theory of the Constitution, has at least been sanctioned by a number of weighty precedents, they will doubtless refer us not only to the case of Mr. Pitt in 1783, but to the example of Mr. Perceval in 1810, and finally, to Sir Robert Peel's own procedure its 1830. POST.—Never was a more shameless falsehood uttered than that of the Whig-Radical Ministerialists that the senti ment of the people of England is in favour of the late and present conduct of the Melbourne Government. It neither is 30, nor is at all likely that it should be. In the first place, every intelligent Englishman knows that the late advocacy of free-trade measures by the Ministry is in direct opposition to what they have advocated on previous occasions, and the English people de not like such changes. Even if they were in favour of the new policy—which they are not—they would not much approve of seeing it carried into effect by men who have hitherto given it their utmost resistance. It is no nese thing to have submitted to the house of Commons measures for the more ready admission of foreign sugars, foreign timber, and foreign corn. Almost every session these measures have been brought forward, and the leading men of the Melbourne Government have resisted them. It is not because they now choose to adopt them that the English people will approve of their conduct, and desire to keep them in office. In the second place it is not believed, nor is there any reason to be mewleve that these measures have been brought forward from any y-obtained conviction thee they would be for the public go o d. The general belief is, and it is a very well-founded lie lief, that had not Ministers been very much afraid of losing their places, they would have brought forward no such mea sures. It is not for the country's good, but for their own (sup posed) party and personal advantage, that these measures have been brought forward. They expected (but, as usual, they miscalculated) that the proposal of such measures would give them that popularity without which they were aware that a long continuance in office was scarcely possible. At all events tbis popularity —if by any m eans i t could be attained— afforded the best chance. It is not because Ministers are at last driven to play a desperate game, and to plunge into the most palpable inconsistencies for - the chance of popular support, that the people of England (who see through the trick) will support them. In the third place it is not ge nerally believed (because all ground of rational belief is quite the other way), that Ministers, when they proposed their new measures with respect to sugar,' timber, and corn, had the slightest intention, or the remotest expectation, of carrying any one of them through Parliament. It is the general, con e • fident, and reasonable belief that they proposed these measures well knowing`that they had no more chance of carrying them than they had of ascertaining the, degree of heat in the planet. Saturn by means of the thermometers hung up in the House of Commons. Now, the people of England are not likely to approve of a Government which brings forward measures which it knows it cannot carry. This is all very well for the Opposition, whose business is me re ly t o a ff ec t th e p u blic mind, and not to carry on the Government. lint they who are en trnsted by the Sovereign with the carrying on of the .n p r uli business, ought not to degrade the Crown by the bri a ngA n e ister for ward of unsuccessful experiments. Indeed, rile brings forward a proposition as a part of . the practice Of vernment for carrying on the public service, s l i e .di n eine of Go.. the Constitution implies that ho will carry it, or yield the GO7 vernment into other hands. ADVERTISER.—The vanity of human expeFlations was never more forcibly illustrated than in the last nights grand party motion of Sir Robert Peel, for a vote of want of confi.:' deuce in the Ministry. It was brought on with so much feebleness, and with so much coyness, by the Right Honour. able Gentleman, as to produce neither excitement among his h supporters nor despair among his opponents. It was empha. tically a dull speech—abounding in instances not pertinent to the occasion—a speech of points, not of principles—which touched himself full as much as his opponents, and which was felt by the eager adventurers of his own varty to be a sore dis couragement, while his antagonists were simply amused b y t h e ponderous incapacity of the Tory Goliath, that was to have de stroyed, root aud.braneh, by . one fell swoop, all the Ministerial forces. As we expected, Sir Robert Peel only su ccee d ed 'in convincing his friends that so long as the policy of their party should be left in the hands of a leader so cautious and prudent, n ot to say timorous and reluctant, theirreversion to office must be far distant, and if obtained, not tenable for long. H e • EVENING EDITION, . _ on - the other hand, it must be admitted, seemed anxior,s to declare off; and in several parts of his speech, indi cated an inclination, if not a determination, to make himself independent of all advice or control, la lio:ilsr it - should issue. - from the thundering Thnes,. or hi 3 o-.7,i, teasing and impracticable supporter. Upon the whole, the iin.- pression left on our minds, and on many others of all parties with whom we have since conversed, is, that Sir Robert Peel had obeyed unwilli ng ly th e di rections of his party; in a corn 'se which he could not sanction; and it is indeed obvious that the Tories could gain - nothing, whilst they might lose all the-de lusion in their favour resulting from the temporary adhesion of a few anti-slavery, and Corn-law people, who for the nonce swelled his majority on the sugar duties-debate. Sh:ce ant majority less thanthat must, pro tanto, diminish its value, us;;1 show, that though it indicated the sense of the House upon the occasion, it was not a test of the estimation in which the Po vernment and their policy were generally held : on the ot - aer hand,.if the Ministers should obtain a majority, the foriner decision would be wholly reversed, and the .Ministry would be reinstated in Parliamentary confidence, as well as in that of the people. But the speech, like all Sir Robert Peel's expo sitions, indicated more by its omissions than by what it; con.. tained. 'He avoided every matter of substance. He confined .himself to the technicalities and conventional practices of Par.. fiaruent ; as if the people care one jot for these, except so far as they coincide with and enforce the objects for which Parlia ments exist, viz., the wish and will of the people.. It was, io short, a complete begging of the question; of what ought to be the rule.and practice of Parliament in such matters. HERALD.—It will be seen from the report which we put).- liskin this day's Herald, of the speech of Sir Robert feel, last night, that our anticipations (as they have been recorded from slay to, day for" some time past), ha v e no t b een ii:sap pointed. The Right Hon. Baronet began by showing how great was the extent of the political imbecility of the existing- Government, to which he proposed to apply a remedy (by putting on record the remarkable resolution with which he concluded), and how incalculable were the amount and the operation of the consequences to be anticipated from the affir mation of such a resolution. It may be important atanotber op portunity, to consider, in the first place, what were the princi pal results to be thus looked to, in contemplation of the exigen cies of our present position, and what were the remedial measures which were to be applied to it, in reference to the he niediate.ispect of political affairs. And here 'we cannot help remarking, that on no former occasion have we observed a more interesting or effective example of that faculty of order and v arrangement which is his peculiar forte, than iS':r Robert Peel displayed last night in his mode of bringing under the notice of-all parties in the House his Bill of indictment against the (present) Government. To borrow a phrase Irvin .Southey,•he fairly called " the great in office"—to judgment; - And it.must be allowed he was no flatterer of those wha rise in the wort; by vehement professions, at the expense of per formance, and practical duty. It will be seen that he plunged in medias res. He gave himself up to his subject. There WaS no'! beating-about the bush;" no mistake about the sort game. whith homeant to put up. To preclude the possibility of any such mistake, he had worded his resolution in terms which " . all who run might read." Ho touched slightly on that strange story of frequent defeat and humiliation uhich the printed lists of divisions (session 1841) have so emphatically told.. Hevontended that they proved on the part of the House, " a total want of confidence" in the present advisers of her Majesiy, and he claimed with reason the credit of bringing... that important question under the notice of the House, in the most direct, straightforward and manly manner. He ntiowed (with no unnatural degree of mingled pride and self-grim:la tion) the careful abstinence he had observed in not permitt:lig hiMself, fora moment, to thwart the progress of measures es sential to the best interests of the commerce and industry of the empire at large, and especially in not opposing the . grant , of" supplies," so essential to the maintenance of thc grandrar, the: force, and the character of the empire. CORN-LAWS. • (PROM A CORRESPONDENT. DUBLIN,•MAY 25, 1841.—1 t gives me great pleasure to in form you of the result of two County Meetings held )ester day on the subject of the Corn-laws. You are aware that the Tories calculated on a reaction in their favour in Ireland, in consequence of the proposed change in the present corn duties, and accordingly that party convened the counties of Roscommon and Galway, by a requisition to their respective High Sheriffs, to petition against the Ministerial plan. But the attempt was defeated, and in both places resolutions were passed in favour of the Government policy, though not ilpflg tog themselves to the exact amount of 4 fixed duty. The :amendments• to the monopolists' propositions were moved in Roscommon by Oliver Grace, of Mantui, and seconded by Daniel Ferr a l, of Beechvrood ; and in Galway, by Sir Mi chael IX Bellew, and Andrew Browne, men holding property in the agricultural districts to the amount of 40,0001. per ;Iv;- num.. This fat shows that in Ireland there is no hope for the factien. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY CHRONICLE.—AIthough the notice is precisely the same; as the last, it bad rather a favourable influence cri the Money Market, Consols for money having advanced to 90, buyers ; the closing price,however, was 90, rather sellers. The monopolists are at a heavy discount in the City, anti daily sinking lower in public estimation. The public are quite satisfied that, whatever men may form the Ministry, they meet speedily proceed to a revision of the t ar iff to res t ore the de pressed corelition of trade and manufactures. They perceive perfectly that this 'course must have been adopted before new it we had not been able to open new markets in South America and the Australian colonies. Those sources are found to be insufficient to postpone the recourse to this remedy rimy longer, the falling off in the Continental demand. anti the drain of gold for Foreign Corn—being much too heavy for the counterpoise—and no alternative re mains, • except to take a decided step in favour of free trade. The objections raised by the monopolistsezisru fall dead from their press. The argument so often raised I;,y them that foreigners ail' not take our manufactures in exiihanee for cornmid timber, has lost efficacy, because it is kneiVii that it. wss our refusal to take their corn and timber on fair terms that compelled them to turn their attention to, and to invest. capi tal •in, manufactures. To persist in their past line of coer cive policy %%Mild therefore only compel the Germans to cozo tinue in the same line of rivalry, whereas, if we should open our ports to the produce of their soil on the payment of mo derate import duties, they would apply themselves assiduously and permanently to the cultivation of it, while our manure,. turers would in the same way reap the benefit ensuing ire te a greatly ineseased demand for their goods. This is the vitae now taken by eyery impartial man here. We believe it is the vifv. taken by memmy pe-sens of all shades of political opinions, and that it is useless to attempt to conduct time Government of the country on any other principle. Every one we speak to pre fers, a moderate fixed duty on corn to a sliding scale, because it will steady prices, and relieve the market from the flue tuat'ons produced by the averages which expose the home grower and consumer to the mercy of speculators, who make fictitious sales to raise or depress prices, as may beat suit their own views at the time. While a sliding scale exists the averages must exist, and while they do the corn trade can be nothing but gambling. A fixed duty is looked upon as the only practical remedy - for this enormous abuse. It is considered not only the sole effectual remedy for that abuse, but also the only way in which the price of corn may be kept at a price of about 50s. to 555. per quarter for English wheat, quite enough to 'keep land at a fair value, and to give the tenants a remu nerative price, while it will protect them from the ruinous consequences that follow from a glut under the present sys tem:. Indeed, it is thought that in the course of time tlme supply and. demand will so find their level, that the hone, market will never suffer either from scarcity or superabun dance eitStipply, for the deficiency in one country would le• made good by the supply in another, and thus all will en pie the benefits of free intercourse, and a choice of markets. Uwe. , facts aro palpable to the people, and they fully understate} them. • The City monopolists are thus driven to a corner, and in their defeat are glad to catch at straws, indeed at anything likely to assist them even for a moment. Thus we find them raking up old stories, founded upon }titers from correspondents regarding the claims of certain owners of transporti during the war for restitution of light-house dues, from which they erroneously claimed exemption. The amount in question was retained by the Board of Transports, and ulti mately, it seems, paid by the Treasury to the Trinity House, on bond to the Crown, that it might be made forthcoming to thoTFties who should b e f oun d legally entitled tes it by the opinion of the twelve Judges. That opinion has never ; been ,obtained, but we have no doubt they will Ile cide against the exemption ; for, although freighted spe cially for the purpose of carrying troops transports clearly dc. not come under the description of ships exempted !rote light-house dues. 'rho Monopolist Journals, hoe ever, repre sent this very simple matter as one " deeply affecting the character of the present Administration regarding their en gagements with the shipping interest of the country," More perfect twaddle could not be penned. The law is open to tl:e owners of these transport ships, if they be not satisfied to abitle by the case of' Clarke. We do not know whether our Contemporary has given Oro facts correctly or not. But we have been content to take Jhcax in his own way; and having done so, this is all vse make of TIMES._ 1e notice issued at the Bank of England thte morning calls for no remark which has not frequctoly been made before. As a banking operation, it is not of a very legir tinsels+ character, being adapted rather to the Stock Exchange . than to th e tran sactions of commerce, but the late genera pressure for money, which it is calculated, at least twee time, to relieve, has rendered the measure a very opportune one to a large cla ss of persons. The Commissioners of Sewers resolved, at the meeting they held last Tuesday, to enforce " Michael Angelo Taylor's Act," and to remove., if possible, the deformity which the Bank of . England his thrust in the way of the City improvements, by allowing the Sun Fire-office to pass the proper boundary in the erection of their new building. The solicitor is probably by th is time instructed to proceed, and the first step is a notice to the opposite parti e s th a t a jury will be formed to assess the value of the ground prior to a purchase.

THE MEDICINAL EFFECTS of STEEL, as a strengthener and restorative, have been known for ages to excel th ose o f a ll o th er ar ti c l es o f th e M a t eria Mediea, and in this age of luxury and dissipation, when the indiscretions of youth disappoint the expectations of maturity, it is not to be wondered that a medicine of such efficacy as SEDDON'S genuine AROMATIC LOZENGES of S 1 EEL should have attracted the attention of the first medical men in Europe. When the most important functions of life are suspended, and those who are invalids by inheritance or imprudence are reduced to the most deplorable state of nervous debility, it is not in despair that relief is to be found. It has been ascertained, be yond a doubt that these circumstances are occasioned by a ge neral or partial relaxation or weaknesses in either sex ; and it is equally certain that SEDDON'S LOZENGES are the best, if not the only remedy ever discovered for this species of de bility. When taken into the stomach they immediately diffuse themselves like a vapour through every pore, producing effects at once delightful, salutary, and permanent. When the spark of life begins to grow dim, the ciiculation, languid, and the faculties paralysed, these Lozenges are found to give tone to the nerves, exhilirate the animal spirits, invigorate the body, and re-animate the whole man. When aversion to exercise, loss or depravity of appetite, and pallid countenance, indi cate approaching consumption, the. delicate female w ill b e p reserve d and restored to health and society by the benign influence of this medicine.

PRICE OF SUGAR. EFFECT 01: MONOPOLY. A TaVe allowing , the ex duty price of West India sugar in Mincing-lane, and comparing the same against that of foreign sugars : London, May 28, 1831. Per Cwt. The Gazette of this evening will quote the average s. d. price of West India Sugar, at Ile actual quantity of West India sugar sold by the im porters, in the week ending the 25th instant, according to the returns made upon oath by the West Lelia sugar bro kers, in conformity with the Act of Parliament, and on which quantity the above price is computed, consisted of 1,264 106 trs. and 210 barrels. Manilla sugar of good quality is actually unsaleable at 20s. per cwt., and yet that price is now quoted in the absence of sales as the nearest to its value ; the public will therefore ob serve that it is 20s. per cWt. cheaper than the average of West India sugar. For this enormous differential price thO people have to thank the majority of 36, and they will not fail to do so when they meet the Members who formed a part of that factious majority, face to face,.upon the hustings. The ac count is very short. One year with another a duty of 245. per cwt. yields a revenue of about tour and a half millions sterling ; 20s. per cwt. on the like quantity amounts, therefore, to 3,600,0001. Now; this tremendous sum, more than equi valent to meet the deficiency in the annual revenue, is ab stracted from the pockets of the indhstrieus classes, and trans-. ferred to the pockets of a small, though influential, knot of in dolent monopolists, under the pretence that such a legal rob.. berg is necessary for carrying out the great measure of emanci pation. If by that expression the monopolists mean the pro-. motion of the welfare of the black population in our West India plantations, we denounce their plea as downright knavish cheatery, for the stimulus given by this excessive power of money to hard labour is abundantly testified by the declara tion made in the House of Commons by the West Indians, that they would export to the United Kingdom this year 120,000 tons of sugar, which is equal to the weight they used to export in, to them, the palmy days of slavery. Now, it must be evident to the apprehension of all' the world, that to raise and make 120,000 tons of sugar would require precisely the same quantum of labour in one year as in another; and that therefore the - negroes are made, by hook or by crook, to, toil just •as laboriously now that they are emancipat e d as th ey did w h en they - were in a state of slavery; it follows, consequently, that if the British people are anxious to increase the comforts and promote the civilization of the negroes—they ought rather to discourage the cultivation of the sugar-cane, and not stimulate it by a lavish premium of 20s. per cwt. There are very few estates in the West Indies, which, if offered for sale, would fetch ten years' purchase. Now computing the whole annual produce of our West India pos sessions, by the foreign value of the different articles, that is to say by the price at w hi c h we cou ld b uy t h em f rom foreign countries, and that too without importing an ounce of sugar raised by slave-labour, we arrive at .the amount, in round numbers, of five millions sterling; granting all the West India estates to be worth ten years' purchase (which they certainly are net), the parchase money, would be fifty millions sterling. Fifty millions would there fore amply suffice to compensate . - the whole body of proprietors, supposing they were to b e v i o l ent l y de prived of their West-India property. Fifty millions and more have, within these last ten years, been paid to them by the Bri tish nation. First, there is the donation of twenty millions— then the proceeds of their monopoly, which, taken' at'the low rate of four millions, gives forty millions—together sixty mil lions. If, therefore, the West India proprietors were to be dispossessed to-morrow, they would have received from the na tion ten millions sterling more than their whole West India roper ty is worth.

The valuable advantages derived from this invention is, that these lenses are constructed on a princi ple that persons can see with them of a much less magnifying power than those now in common use; nor will they require the frequent changes that other spectacles generally do ; they are also adapted to i mper fect vision to the greatest nicety; they are found to preserve and strengthen the most weak and defective sight.
