The Work which is now resented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, vrhinh fir some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost ins. difference, by the dinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to tollow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR. or a CLERGYMAN, Messrs.

S. arid B. Solomon,' newly-invented invisible operative Voice Conductor, which, when fitted into the cavity of the car is so small, not the least perceptible, nor more un comfortable than having a piece of wool in its place. By this ex traordinary 'lnd valrable invention, not only does the hearing be. come acute, but the ears are so much improved by their use, that individuals, in a great number of instances, can hear most dis tinctly without them. It will therefore be seen that persons do not incur any constant habit of being compelled at al times to make use of them, and in consequence of the numerous individuals having been altogether relieved from deafness, they have become in general use. The Messrs. Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses immediately they are placed before very aged and imperfect eyesight, either by day or candlelight, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with exact distinct ness- Their valuable improvements in the material are secrets to themselves, and are solely confined to their establishments, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York Hotel, and 76, King W;lbani-street, City.

CHANCELLOR, the Earl v of CLAIIENDoN, and the Earl o f StIAFTESBuRY took toel , sesta below the Throne as Lord Commissioners, when the De puty Usher of the Back Rod was ordered to summon the Commons to hear the Royal Assent given to various Bills. Soon after, the Speaker, attended by a number of Mern hers, appeared at the has, when the Royal Assent was given in Of usual way to the Boni Duties Equalization Bill, the Turnpike Acts Continuance Bi 1, the Turnpike Acts Continuance (Ireland) Bill, the Population Act Amend ment Bill, the Houghing of Cattle (Ireland) Bill, the Durham and Sunderland Riulftay Bill, the York and North Miedand Railway B ilt the Glasgow, Pa;sley, and Greenock Rirlway Bill, and tne Manchester and Salford Waterworks Bill. Tl - e house then adjourned during pleasure. The EArl of SHAFTESBURY' resumrd his seat at Five &Clock. 'Aless , :ngers from the Commons brought up the Eastern Counties Railway Amendmeot Bill, the London and Black wal (Cernmereidl) RaiLkay Bill, and several other Pri ate Bilk. The Bishop of LONDON presented petitions from Northampton and the disee;e a Peterborough, against the Commutation of Titi es 13.11; also petitions from Clap ham-rcad, and Lambeth and Blackfriarv-road, praying that the tolls mis;ht be taken off the metropolitan bridges; also a petition from Llanelly, in Wales, against idolatrous worship in India. The Right Rev. Prelate then moved for a copy of a despatch s abot out in March last relative to the idolatrous ce,.emonies of the inhabitants of the Pre sidency of Madras. —Ordet ed. The Duke of WELLINGTON presented a petition from the Mayor, Aldermen, and Corporation of Dover in favour of the Jews' DeelarStims _Bill. Tee Noble Duke said he could not concur in tl*prayer of the petition. The Marquis of NORMANSNY presented a petition from Westminster, praying that the toll night be taken off the metropolitan bridges. The Noble Lord then moved for papers connected with ills result of certain trials in Ireland, He had felt it his duty das:, night to oppose the motion of the Noble Earl oa grounds which appeared rea,onable to their Lordships, but he was anxious to give every informa tion in his power, He should therefore MQVC for a re turn of all the trials for Ribbonism in Ireland during the last two years, distinguishing those who had been con visted and those who had bean acquitted, and also the cases is which the Jury had been discharged without coming to any decision. He had re ison to believe that the result would prove that the acquittals which in ordinary cases were to the conviet'ons as seven, six, and five to four, and would turn out to be in the Ribbon cases in the r-rtin of three and a 'half convictions to one acquittal. and that there was only one case in which the Jury had been discharged without coming to any verdict. The Noble Marquis said ha wished to take that opportunity of curio cting an error in the report that had gone forth to the pub!ie, of his speech lait evening, and by which it would appear that the examination of toe panel of the Jury by Mr. Biddulph had taken place io privets, which was net the case. What he steed was that Mr. Bid dolp'i was by when the panel was called over, and the words of the Magistrates were, that he had di rec:ed Mr. Biddulph to look at the panel attentively. There was every desire on the part of the officers of the Crown to receive information from Mr. Biddulph, reserv ing to themselves the right of acting upon that information on their own resporsihility,__ _ and he promised to remain till the last ; but he believed it was the usual practice, when it was intended to adjourn for more than one day, to make the motion before the com mencement of the regular business. Mr. HUME said i) believed it was the usual practice, but a very bad one he thought. Mr. WAKLEY said, as the Noble Lord intended to stop till the closer of the proceadings, it would not be at all inconvenient for him to make the motion at the end of the proceedings.—( Cries of " No, no.") The SPEAKER said, if the motion were not agreed to before five o'clock, Hon. Members would be prevented from giving notices of motions for arty day after the hull day.—Tbe motion was then agreed to. M'. J. O'BRIEN gave notice, - Chat on the 29th ins'ant be would move an address to her Majesty, praying that she would take me tsurc3 to carry into effect the Second Re port of the Railway Commission in Ireland. Mr. GROTE gave notice that on Thursday, the 22d, he should submit a motion relative to the Land Fund and Finances of Now South Wales, similar to that which he brought before the House the other day, when it was counted out Mr. /I AWES gave notice that he should on We Ines say, the 21st, move the second reading of the Molical Reform Bill. • Mr. E WART gave nonce that he should, on the 20:h, bring forward a motion for opening the Regent's Park. He should also move for a Committee to inquire into the propriety of appointing a public prosecutor. Mr. MUNTZ gave notice that he should in Committee on the Criminal Justice Bill move for leave to introduce a clause to declare valid the Birmingham Charter. Mr, HUME moved for a return of the number of pri- soners confined for debt at this time in England and Wales, and in Ireland ; also for a retura of the number of prisoners now confined for offences against the Revenue Laws. Mr. P. HOWARD, seeing the Noble Lori the Secre tary for Foreign Affairs in his place, begged to ask him wh-n the Portuguese Commission far the settlement of British claims was likely to open for the discharge of those claims ? Lord PALMERSTON replied that the Commission had been occupied fur a considerable time in inquiries which it was necessary to go into before they proceeded to investigate the claims. A question had arisen as to the contracts which should be considered binding and appli cable to the cases of different. claimants. The Commis loners had referred this question to the arbitrator, who had been }Nevi ausly appointed, and who had not yet given his decision. The Commissioners felt that it was impossible, with any advantage, to in vite claimants to send in their claims until it had been determined what the principles were which was to be ap plied to those claims, Mr. GO ULBURN Fail, seeing the Noble L'rd the Secretary for Foreign Affairs in his place, he begged to ask him what had been done with respect to the Syrian papers which were promised on the first night of the Session. Lord PAL M E 1?. STO N said that the whole would be laid on the table in a few days. In answor to a question from an HON. MEMBER, the NOBLE LORD S3ii the papers could Include an account of the transaction respecting Mr. Wood's Commission, and of the whole of the proceedings in Syria.

The returns were ordered. SYRIA. The SPEAKER then communicated to the House a letter from Sir Robert Stopford, in acknowledgment of the resolution of thanks voted by the House on the sth of February. ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE. Lord PALMERSTON moved that the House at its rising do adjourn until Tuesday the 20th inst. Mr. HUME thought that motion would conic better at the close of the proceedings—C Cries of No, no,") — because many Hon. Members were in the practice of walking oaf. as soon as certain business was over; and these Members were prevented from bringing on their motion!,—(Lau'! laughter.) H Fpck3 feelingly, for he had a motion en the paper of which be was most auxicue, to be-caeliverip4;.—(Langliter.) Lord PALMERSTON could only speak for himself, EDUCATION. Mr. E WART then rose to move an address to tlec Crown, praying for the appointment of a Minister of Edu- I cation, who shall every scar lay before the House ot Com mons a statement of the condition and prospects of the education of the people. The Hon. Member said in sub mitting this motion, he had two objects, first, theappointment of a responsible Minister who should undertake to super intend the education of the people;' and next, that the Minister should make annual reports on the state and pros pects of education in this country. lie wished the sub ject of education to have in this House a Minister respon sible to it and the people. He wished also have publicity given to the state of education in tit's coun try. The motion which he made was perfectly in accordance with the practice and the business of the House. There wis scarcely any important depart ment which did not make a statement of its conduct. Every year there was a statement of his conduct from the Chancellor of the Exchequer respecting the financial department. He doubted whether even the finances of the country were of greater moment than the education of the people. They had also every year a statement from the Secre tary of the Admiralty and from the Secretary-at- War. He questioned whether those were of more importance then the subject before the House. ' He wished to see a Minister in that House who would be responsible to the House for all the statistics of education. If such a Minister were appointed, it would be in the power of any Member to question him upon that all-important subject, in the same manner as was now done upon foreign or domestic affairs. The system of periodical Reports had been adopted in most foreign countries, especially in Prussia and in France, and had been attended with the most beneficial results. In Belgium, the system had been allowed to fall into desuetude, and the consequences had been most deplor able. The education of the people had been during the last ten 3 ears most disgracefully neglected. There were elready systems of education in detail in many parts of our present institutions. The factory inspection was one of those, as it was the duty of the inspectors to superintend and report upon the education of the children in the factories, and iu the same manner the inspection of prisons comprehended a practical recognition of the principle which he advanced. Another point to which lie wished to bring the attention of the House, was, that there should be an annual report of the state and progress of the arts, and that these should be placed under the superintendence of the MiniAor of Education, as in France, and other countries. Another subject to which he wished to advert on this occasion, was, that the Government ought to estabtisb public librarie:, open to all classes. There was no country in which there were so few public libraries as in this ; and even these were not open to all classes, as in France. He holed the Government of this country would imitate the good example set by the Government of France in that re=pent. They all knew that, a vast number of public libraries had been lately opened in Germany, and there were at pre sent not less than SO or 90 which were accessible to all parties, and at all hours. In Russia the:e were seteral of a similar neture. In 1837 the public library at So Peters burgh had been freely thrown open to the public, and since then they had established libraries at Archangel, and other places, accessible to the entire population. He was convinced that no greater boon could be conferred upon the adult population of the country than the establi,hment of public libraries. These might very pro perly come before such a Minister of the Government as he proposed to appoint, and he thought he could not do better than to state the summary of the duties of such a Minister as dot tiled by the Minister of Public Education in France, in his report to the King of the F. ouch. He said the interests over which that _Mini .ter was to pre side, were the most lofty on which public atten tion could be fitted—it comprehended the educa tion of the people, and the highest branches of literature and science; it embraced all the institutions and foundation of human knowledge. These were some of the duties which would be comprehended in the efface to which ho alluded.—( Hear. ) He thought the appointment would be a great boon to the cause of gene ral education, and one of the arrangements should be that the Minister should keep up a communica tion with foreign coantries on the subject of any divc3veries that might take place or any improvements that might be made in the general system of education. By these means of international education, their system of Infant Schools was disseminated over the country to great advantage.—( Hear, hear.) The system of mu tual instruction of Bell and Lancaster had been adopts I in this country with great success. In the United States institutions existed well worthy of the imitation of this country ; he alluded to the institutions called Lyceums. He should wish to see that system imitated all over the coun try. From Prussia they had borrowed their system of normal schools, and he regretted very much that those useful establishments were so few in this country. He felt perfectly confident that although he might be un succesVul on the present occasion, the principle of his motion could soon be adopted, for there was a general feelin g in its favour throughout the country. Any one turn ing their attention to the subject, would find there were two principles at work in Europe and America. In those coun ties where education had been entirely free there was a grow ing tendency towards centralization, and in those countries where that system had prevailed, the current was setting in favour of a freer system. In England, and America there was a remarkable tendency to wards centralization, while in Holland, Prussia, and France there was an earnest desire for more freedom. In his opinion, a system which was based upon both principles was the best. He could not adopt the Prussian system under which children were sent to school under the paternal control of a pol.ceman ; he would like a system which would give encou ragement without interference—superintendence with out control. The great point was to give the people a habitual respect for education. When they had attained that point their object would be accomplished. There was no necessity for any compulsory plan in Scotland—in that country, much to its honour, a love of education descended from father to son ; and in America there was a greater proportion of educated people than in any other country in the world : all that resulted from education be ing deeply seated in the affections of the people. He could not consent to any system of Govern ment which did not come constantly before the House; there should be an annual statement, like that of the Chancellor of the Exchequer deliver by the Minister of Education in his place in Parliament, and borne by the press throughout the country, Whatever other question of reform there might be, that of educational reform was the greatest of all. Many others like himaclf had done their best for the reform of the criminal law, but they always accompanied the Acts with the declaration that such reform was not sufficient, and that instead ot giving a horror of punishment, they should give a horror of crime. There could be no greater or more cheering proF pect than to see the bright futurity, when those who were to come after us should be wiser and better than ourselves. By pursuing the coarse which he propose i, he was convinced they would cultivate not only the a 1 - vanciment of intellect, but the great interests of re!if4-on itself, and better than by any other method ..... Assert eternal nrovicl.:ueo, And justify the ways of God, to InFlo."_....cife Mr. S. O'BRIEN supported the motion. It WAS ma- PRICE sd• nifest they must exert themselves much more than they had done if they wished to gain to the people of this country the blessings of a good education. In the Mi nutes of the Council of Education, it appeared that in Wales teens were 85,000 children and schools for only 3,305. It appeared also by a Report of Dr. Kay, that in 1827 there were 1,675 individuals in the workhouses of Norfolk, of whom only 10 could read and write well. By another Report, it appeared that of 181,000 who were married, only 33 per cent. of the males, and 49 per cent. of the females could sgn their names. By the Report of the Inqp:enors of Prisons, it appeared that one-third of the priionrrs ceuld not read. Taking the different abstracts lad before Parliament, he found that the whole number of children at school in the three kingdoms receiving daily instruc;ion was 2,193,000: whereas, supposing one-fif:h of the population to be under iestruction, the number would he fi.e millions. From a statement of this comparative amount of education in different countries of tire world. Eng land appeared to be the last on the scale. hi the state of New York, there had been appropriated it this the last two years one million to the purposes of education. The Legislature of this country, reluctantly granted the sum of 30,000!. With respect to the dispeicion of funds, he objected to eetrusting them to private asaociations. The Committee of tho Council in whose hands the Educational grant hld been placed, were too much cc supied to act with ef f iciency. The Hen. Member proposed to appoint a Minister who should make an annual statement with re spect to the condition and prospects of education in this country. He was extremely glad to hear the principle of maintaining schools by public assistance advocated by the leader of the Conservative party. There was that fell from him the other night in the deloa - !.e on the Poor lawe, that was most gratifying to him (Mr. S. 013. ), namely, that the poor ought to have their children edu• sated at a small expente. He was sorry to have tres passed on the attention of the House for so long a period, but he believed that the subject of education was the most important that could be brought under discus sion, and he had felt it• to be his duty to submit the re masks that had occurred to bim on it. He trusted that the House would not refuse to this subject the attention which it deserved. It was a source of great gratification to him to find that this was no subject of party, and he trusted that the time was come when each pa. - ty would strive to be foremost in the good work of giving to the people a sound and rational eL:ucation. The motion having been put from the Chair. Sir GEORGE GREY said he would not enter at any length into the subject befsre the House, seeing that he could not do so with advantage in the present state of the beaches of the House, arising no doubt from the late pe riod at which the motion was brought forward, and because, as he believed, there had been no general expectation that the subject would be brought under the consideration of the House.—( Hear, hear.) He felt bound to state that he had great objections to the motion of his lion. Friend, founded not so much upon the proposal itself as upon the difficulties which he foresaw would arise in carrying it iato operati m. He agreed with his H an. Friend that this was a most important subject. He agreed with him also in the opinions he had expressed as to the thfieiency of education which already existed in this country. He agreed with him, also, that the remedy required was that of rasing the character and improving the educatisn of those to whom the instruction of the people wes entrus'ed. But he must say he thought his Hon. Friend ha I overlooked what had been done within tha last few years on this subject. Look ins; at the ditliculties—lo,king at the feeliega which iced been excited by the discussions on the subject which had taken place that House and out of it—he certainly feared that if the proposal of his Honourable Friend was seriously taken uft it would escite those feelings and that discussion which gas now happily allayed. Nevertheless great gaol had resulted from these discussi ies. and from tire propositions that been sub mitted to the House with regard to national education. Ile would not state at length what these results were, be cause the Hon. Member would shortly be enabled to judge for himself; for the information which he antici pated would be the result of a Minister of Educaton, had been already supplied by the labours of the Inspectors op pointed by the Privy Council. Tee lalmirs of those gentle , reen had not been confined to the mere objects of their appointment, but they had attended, by the voluntary in vitation of many of the managers, schools throughout the country, and especially in Seatland, from whence they had derived much useful knossledge respecting the im provement of our present system of education. Under tire circumstances hr hoped his Hoe. Friend would not press his motion to a division, which, in the present state of the House, could not express the deliberate opinion of the House upon the subject. He hoped, therefore, he would postpone all further general discussion on the ques tion until the information, which was ready to be produced, was laid on the table of the House There would be ample ooportuniv to renew the discussion of the subject on the rote of the estimates for education. —( Hear, hear.) Mr E WART said be had been anxious to do justice to the efforts of the Inspectors and of the Government.— ( Hear, hear.) He at once frankly an fully acceded to the proposi‘ion of the Hon. Gentleman, thinking that although lie might have. a majority, it would not, under the circum stances, express the opinion of the House.—( Hear, hear.) lie therefore gave notice that when the estimates were brought forward he should move on addition to the paltry grant of 30,0001. for educational purposes which had so long disgraced the Civil list.—( Hear, hear.) The motion was then withdrawn. PUBLIC EXHIBITIONS. Mr. HUME rose to move for the aipointment if a Sclee , . Committee, to inquire into the present state of the national monuments and works of art in Westminster Abbey, in St. Paul's Cathedral, and in other public edi flees; to consider the best means for their protection, and fur affording facilities to the public fur their inspection, as a me ins of moral and intellectual improvement fir the people. The Hon. Gentleman said that he had the autho rity of the Magistra!ea, the Comrniss'oners of Police, and others, to state that in their opinion the attainment cf the object he proposed would be highly beneficial to the com munity at larg,.—( Hear.) Hitherto a sy stem of exclusion had existed, which, however, had b•en gra dually withdrawn, and his object was to :C:110Ve it altogether and to givo the masses of the community an much as possible the benefits to be de ived from the inspection of those valuable works of art with which this country was enriched. No country in Europe oossessed more v sluabie works of art than Eng land ; but hitherto they had be 2n lceted up to those who were not sufficiently wealthy to purchase access to there. The advantages that wculd thus accrue to the people were incalculable. Every work of art would become a source of feeling. reasoning., and thought to them.—(Herr, hear.) The desire to visit these exhibitions was daily in• creasing, in proof of which he would mention that every day of the year thousands of the poorer classes in the me tropolis found their way to Hampton Court, and there en. i)yed the pleasure afforded by the highest wcrks of art without fee.—( Hear, hear.) He would also mention that since the Palace hat been opened the people spent the time they had formerly consumed in drinking in the gardens in the examination of the trea sures of art which it contained. (Heat., hear.) In one year the number th it passed through the Tower at the fee of Gd. was 95 000. No dam-ge had been done to any of those institutions which were open to the pub lic.—( Hear.) He had framed his motion so that it should extend to other institutions, as well as Westminster Abbey and St. Paul':a He would not name the Cemmittee until after Easter, and would select it so as to [nett the approbation of both sidea of the Bosse.—( Hear.) Mr. MACKINNON seldom agreed with the Hon. Member, and when he did so it was with some doubt and reluctance.—( A laugh.) He was of opini)n that it would greatly tend to promote the interests of art in this country , if all the cathedrals were thrown open to the public ( Hear, hear.) He had visi:ed many foreign countries, and he never met, except in this country. with any com munity whose churches were closed against the public, or only opened upon the payment of fees. There were two objections to the measure. The one was how were they to guard against the desecration of the sacred edifices ? The other, how were they to prevent the expense of open ing the building from failing upon the Deans and Chapters? He thought, however, that these objections were easily removed, and that the expense of keeping policemen in attendance during the public hours, and an indemnity to the Chapters, might very well be paid by the Govern ment. He supported the motion. It injured the ehataca tcr of the sacred edifices, that payment should be taken for admission to them for amusement, as if they were theatres.—( Hear, hear. ) Mr. LABOUCIIERE did not rise to offer any objec tion to the motion, as he considered every facility ought to be granted to the people of seeing these works of art; and as the Committee was to be appointed, he thought the present was not a fit opportunity fur discussing the ques tion, and as to-night was the last night before the holi days, he trusted that no lengthened discussion would be entered into.—(Cheery.) Sir R. INGLIS thought the address of the Right Hon. Gentleman was one of the most extraordinary he had ever heard. When the Committee should have reported, they would have the same difficulties to contend with as if the motion had been for an address in the first instance. They had no power whatever over cathedral?. He did not think that much improvement would take place in works of art, from the study of the monuments in Westminster Ab bey. Some of the best of them were not lived for a place of religioas worship, and if they were to be removed, however objectionable such a proposition might be, it would at least remove an appa rent incongruity. The fees had bean reduced by a volun tary sacrifice, on the part of the Dean and Chapter:, of, 1,400/. The same power that opened Westmin ster Abbey could open every parish church ia England. It bung an understanding that the Committee was to be granted, was unwilling to datsin the House ; but he wished t° call the attentioc of the Government to the r ecent danger to which the Cartoons had been expo ed. He did not wish to remove the Cartoons, but he trusted that some of , th e Ministers would be able to saii , fy t he House that tame immortal works were not again likely to be exposed to a aitniiar risk to the o:,e from which they had been so hap pily rescued. Lord MORPETH said that the Chief Commissioner of the Woods and Forests bad bcen to Hampton Court ves t !rday, and he trusted that the measures adopted Would be sufficient to prevent the chance of such a deplorable ca larriv happening as that to which the Hon. Baronet had alluded. DESTRUCTION OF THE CAROLINE. ,),titlalt, of ,v l-I ,n %n h . b F e rie h n a d d MLroridluP,pAc)L :I , l , E ti ß :.

Ii the House would pet bun to vxiicooi au opinion upon the subject, 1 // le ..''' cti,-- MORNING EDITION he would say that he did not consider it expedient tbat the papers should be produced at present.—(ll,,:x.) Negotiations were going on at present on the subject, and he could assure the House that there was the mos.*. anxious desire manifested by both Governments to bring the matter to an amicable and satisfactory termination.-- (Loud cheers.) An exceedingly strong fee:ing on tho subject, however, existed both in this country and on the other side of the Atlantic, and while the negotiations were going on between the two Governments, any debate on the subject would be likely to defeat the very object the Hon. Gentleman had in view. He trusted, therefore, be would consent to postpone his motion until after the recess.—( Cheers.) Mr. H O ME had certainly intended to bring forward his motion that evening. He was against all war, but, a war between this country and the United States he looked upon as perfectly unnatural.—( Cheers.) After having heard the statement of the Noble Lord, he could hare no. objection to postpone his motion until after the recess. On the motion of Mr. LABOUCHEIZE, the follow ing Members were appointed a Select Committee on Joint Stock Companies, Banking Companies excepted : Mr. Labouchere, Mr. Sheil, Lord Granville Somerset,.

Heavily as the man with 41. a week is burdened wi . .!h the Food Taxes, they are as nothing at all, in proportion• to his income, compared with what' is wrung from the hard toiling man who receives only 1/. a week. Supposing him to be married, aid that he has three children, the average number in a family, his weekly expenditure for food w►ll be at least three-fourths of his income, while that of the man who hat 2001. a year is not much more thara one-fourth of that sum. In the calculations we made last week, wa showed that the ma❑ who lives on 2001. a year pays about 201. to the F.od Monopolists, which is only one-tenth of his whole income. In the statement we are about to make, it wilt he seen that his pour neighbour, who is ill able to bear any taxation at ail, is forced to lay one-fourth of his in. cone to the Food Monopolists. From cert.in ii.quiries we have invde, we ascertain that a rosn with a wife and three children, who earns 203. a week, will expend three-fourths of it in something like the following mariner : s. d. Four, 2 dozen lb. at 23. 3d 4 6 18tb 2 3 Putatos, 2 scare lb. at 10d. ne quart per day . 1 9 Butter, 1: 1 2 1'. at 10d 1 2 Sugar, lib 0 9 Coffe , , 8 (Z. B“!un, 31b at 71 1 9 15 1 Ia many instances more butcher's meat will be consumed and less bread stuffs, but in that case the sum total ex pended on food will be about the same. Here, then, is 15g. Id. a week, or 391. 14s. 2d. a year, expended uoon food. Now, as the price of every ar ticle we have named is enlitncei at lea t one-third by the Food Taxes, this poor man must pay 131. 2s. Bd. a year out of his 521., while his more fortunate and more comfortable neighbour pays only 201. out of his 2001.. a-year. And yet, with such obvious facts as these, which must stare every working man of common sense iu the face, at every meal to which he and his family may sit down, the agents of the landowners have the assurance to. assert, that the maintenance of the Food Monopoly is " a. Labourers' Question More wonderful still is the melan choly fact, that there are thousands of working men whor►t that very monopoly has brought to the verge of sta►vatioo, and who, notwithstanding, are found at every public meet ing on the subject, fighting the battle of the landowners.. Ve►ily, a more signal instance of that infatuation which is the forerunner of swift destruction, has seldom been wit-, nessed in this or in any other country. —Bolton Free Press. ODE ON THE FUNERAL OF SIR JOHN MOORE. TO TILE EDITOR OF THE SUN, Silt,—ln your last Number there appeared a letter addressed to the Rev. W. Muir, Assistant Minister at Temple, in Scot land, by a person professing himself the author of the Ode on the Burial of Sir John Moore. From his profession I am bound to believe Mr. Muir to be a gentlemnt of education, and of sufficient critical acumen to perce ye the authorship of that Ode to be fully established in " The Memoirs of the Rev. Charles Wolfe," and therefore cannot conceive any reason he could have had for the publica tion of the above-mentioned letter, except perhaps to silence oostinate pretension by an appeal to living evidence, if such might still exist. I have the pleasure of being able to satisfy Mr. Muir on this point by referring to Dr. Dickenson, Bishop of Meath ; Dr. Russell, Archdeacon of Clogher, and to the Rev. Mortimer O'Sullivan, rector of Killyman, near Dungan non, in Ireland. These distinguished persons were all contem porary with Mr. Wolfe in the University of Dubli n , t wo o f them his bosom friends, and I believe one of them, at least, was ',resent when part of the Ode was actually composed. The writer of this letter hopes he may be excused for stating, not as additional evidence, but as an apology for what, might otherwise have the appearance of officious zeal, that he him self had the happiness of enjoying Mr. Wolfe's intimate ac quaintance during several of the latter years of his life, and received from his own lips an acknowledgment of the author ship of the Ode in question. Such an avowal from such a character as" The Memoirs" fsithtully pour:ray, would, he is convinced, be admitted by Mr. Muir as precluding all doubt on the subject.—l have the honour to be, Sir, Your very obedient servant, JOSEPH MARSHALL.
