Such a re solution would go to vitiate the bulk of the taxes, which are mixed up with discriminating duties, and, were it adopted, might bring the landlords to a sense ofkis tice. As long as their avowed wrong is actjuiesced in they will never want reasons to show that it is expedient. Men are bound to pay taxes for the.sup port of the State; there is no moral obligation an them to pay protecting and discriminating duties ; and, till these be abolished, all taxation, in any way mixed with them, is in danger of being resisted. The General Shipowners' Society, have informed the public that they are by no means pleased with Sir B. I'EEL. This is to be considered as another defective from his ranks, because that body belongs. to the mono polists, and in general supported the Tories, in the dx- Pectation that they would maintain the protective prin ciple. They say— The Report presented by your Committee at the last annual general meeting was addressed to the shipowners of the United Kingdom at a moment at which the great question was about to be submitted to the test of a general election, whether the commerce and navigation of the country were hereafter to be conducted on the principle of protection flrwhicii the Commit tee had ever contended, and were ,thenstruggting ' • or in ac cordance with the theories of-tree tra d e , t o which they have ever been opposed. Since that period the doctrines hitheno repudiated by the advocates of the shipping interest have beta _ -,ed supported. feebly - of corning. Sir ROBERT PEEL'S tariff, they cicciare, contains In almost every page propositions for 'cbanges unfavourable to British navigation, some of them of a character and extent-cal culated deeply to injure, if not entirely to destroy, important branches of the carrying trade; and almost - all opposed, in the opinion of your Committee, to the protective principle on which the maintenance of.Britishnprititne commerce-. depends. . In consequence of these views, thefivrined, it ap pears, a combined, plan of .operations to oppose the tariff, particalarlftbat part of it which abolishes a pro teaing duty of 455. for Canadian timber. The 1)1(4w • enabled them to send their Vessels in ballast acrosf Atlantic, and they found ample payment iii thefrcight home for the expense of the two Voyages. Bet they were not successful, and their explanation why "they were not, confirms Sir RICHARD VYVYAN'S statement of the man ner in which 3leriibers have been coerced into voting 4'0e .4 Sir R. PEEL. Throughout our .communications, (they say) we sedulously endeavoured to restrict. our -arguments to proving that-the actual effect of the measures we deprecAted would be different from that anticipated by 'Sir :Wien Peel ? and it only remains for us to express .our deep regret, that kmatters of navigation the opinions of practical thipoWners should be deemed entitled to so little weight,:;,— • 'f he iceeed . from ti, ordinar their pr: , which, snaM wig but to ha iutcrest femonsi. passed all steady so; have been Ynalous discusfian ,changei . naviriatt , wi Ca" part of th " " Co; " hope friends, Poor-la . by what which I had relied." The shipowners, like other Tories, are for saking their chosen but faithless chief. Sir R. PEEL is fast losing the support of his own friends, w bile his mea sures do not command the cordial approbation - 1;f the other party. At present, he is a necessity for all parties. There could be no Government were he to break up his administration ; but as parties get sifted and tossed into fresh places, this necessity will disappear. Sir R. PEEL'S power, which is at present completely dictatorial, will then disappear too. He is routtng at oKnding the monopolists, but he is not winning the free-traders. He is destroying all parties but the Chartists, and seems pre paring the way for apolitical anarchy. We are glad to bear testimony that the British public are supporting British ships in earnest ; this is as it should be. The General Steam Navigation Company's favourite steam-ship Rainbow, Captain J. Fife, left the Brunswick Wharf, Blackwall, yesterday, for Antwerp, with a cheering number of passengers. Several families of distinction were on board, among wl om we could ob serve his Grace the Archbishop of Tuam and his family, Major Mackinlay, and the Rev. T. BOurdier. The Wilberforce (British ship) had arrived previously from Antwerp, having had an excellent passage of ot,iy 171 hours. Antwerp, June 2;.—The Wilberforce arrived from London in 17 hours. / ~L yz embraced, or supported, or feebly opposed by the friends on whom the shipowners have relied, and changes are in progress of which it would be weak and uncandid were the Ceminittv not to express their conviction that the are fraught with Abe most alarm i ng consequences to Be: maritime corwercot which, by the in of s -appear'a to be 'keeled to decay.

Persons, therefore, desirous of entering the Society, AS MEMBERS, on the sth of July next, should appear at the Office on or before that day. So various are the plans now before the public for effecting Assurance on Life, it may, at first sight, seem difficult to make choice between them. As, however, all prudent offices make a considerably higher charge in the annual premium than experience has hitherto shown to be necessary, but differ in the mode of disposing of the surplus or profit, the following classification may be made :- Ist. Proprietary Offices, where all the surplus from pre miums and other profits is divided exclusively amongst the Share or Stockholders. 2d. Offices where the same is divided in various proportions between Share and Stockholders and the assured. _ . 3d. Offices of a strictly mutual character, where the whole of the profit is equitably distributed amongst the assured only. The Metropolitan, which is of the last class, was established in 1835, and although no paid egents for town or country have at any time been employed, nor any expensive system of adver t /sing resorted to, yet its advantages have been so well appre ciated by the public, that the annual premiums already exceed 38,500/. hi consequence of the prosperous state of the Society's af fairs, the Annual Premiums of Members of Five years' standing have been reduced Forty-two and a Half per cent. A plan of the Society, with tables of rates, may be obtained on application at the Office. RICHARD FIEATHFIELD, Superintendent. Princes-street, Bank, June 8, 1842.

The niece of a respectable woman, living at N 0.4, Passage de la Reunion, Rue St. Martin, committed suicide, on Tuesday last, under the following circumstances :—Some dais ago the aunt was called into the country on business, and kit her n i ece at home. During the absence of her aunt, the girl received the visits of several young men, which, however, inno cent, gave rise to observations among some of the neighbours, who threatened 4n complain of h. r oa her aunt's return, which was daily expected. On Friday morning, the porter of the house, not seeing the niece stirring, long after her usual time, went up to her room to call her, and, receiving no answer, be came alarmed, and had her door forced open. 'I he poor girl w as found dead, having produced suffocation by two braziers o charcoal. An instance of spontaneous combustion occurred a f ew days ago, at Lille. Some coarse cloths, which had been used in cleaning the iron work of some machinery in a factory, and had thereby become saturated with oil, were thrown into a wooden box on the floor of one of the workshops, and hap pened to stand in the sun. Between nine a n d t en in the even ing a faint smell of burning was perceived in this part of the building, and, search being made, it was found that these sloths had ignited and were smouldering. Fortunately the dis covery was made in time to prevent any disastrous conaeguenoes. FOREIGN PIRAcY OF BRITISH LITERAR,Y WORKS. A public meeting, fur. the purpose of taking into con sideration the enormous and increasing evil of the foreign piracy of British literary works, and fur adopt ing such measures as-may,seem expedient for putting a stop to the same, was held yesterday at the Freemasons' Tavern, .Gfeat Queen-street, Lincoln's N. Longnian, Esq., in ihe The 'attendance of authors,: publishers, &c., was pretty numerous. Aniong those present we noticed Lord Willi:on:Lennox, SPottiswoode, Esq., .Sir C Messrs. Dicken son , C o lb u rn, Lahlanr s. aleOßliialtarga c:.l, .Hodgkio, Pierce. Egan, Longman, !' Horace Smith, James, Sze. The hour fixed for taking the was three o'clock, but Cie proct;edings (lid not conimence till a consider- ' able period-after that time. Mr. LONGMAN, On :taking- the Chair, said that he had taken the liberty of calling the gentlemen present to gether the subject _of internati ona l co py r i g ht, at : the. request of several gentlemen who, like himself, lelt a deep iaterest in its establiShrikirit. With their permis-; she., he would request his fnend, Mr. James, who was to move:the first resolution,' to explain to them the pre sent stcte of that important-matter. Mr. JAMES said that the first -, resolution having been put iato his hands, and his frietal, - Mr. Longman, haring alluded to him as a person in some degree well informed on the very important subject - which they on the present occasion were to considerwuold not detain them Icrig,by any rhetorietil wotdd simply I state the. facts, of the-case, iW4 eiigking a f'..* observe.' tions on iheyesolutiOn which he held in his hand. That resolution was a general one, asserting that the right of property ,in literary prodections Might to be recog 7 , nised by all civilized nations. He believed that no man who considered the subject could in the slightest de gree doubt that literary property was as Much property 'as any -Miler possession, so long as it was recognised-!'by - the country where the author lived. He Oelieved, more - 04r, that that lite rary property Oughr to be considdrpdty foreign nations in the saws ' ligh 6 al. any oilier: species. of property ; that it should - be no more subject to rubbery —no More subjedt to - be seized. and taken possessiontof by a person, not the rightful owner, than other description of possession whatever. -.lf a gentleman travellinitiin a distant country chanced. to lose a diamond or any thing of that kind, if it so happened tiki7a - "man deprifeti him of it, either by covet, fraud, or open violence, rig a mailer of Course' the law of - the kind was broughtinto *ration ugainst the person who so tdok, the propcyty of •another—true pro •perty, if found,, i4SiteStored, end Ihe person whei' had talten it was poiushed: lie . (Mr. James) would 'then ask what could suggest itself. to the mind of any one to make Jilin, believe that, any difieren* in this respect ex isted between literary property and' that of any other 'description? Was it because literity' property was the production . oft if , man's brain, and not of . his field, that a. person should be allowed to take it from himi --He could not think of tiny reason foe-admitting of such laxity in the .q.bservance,•of the laws. of „property, except-that in this Cage fraud ivas mere easy. But could a - than - be thus in anywise justified in taking possession of that ti-ltielt he had7..not laboured t to produce, and in • making a profit 'O-, another can' s , industry., There seemed to him (Mit;James) no doubt Whatever on this matter. .He,Aliought it was must clearly eiidept that it -was for the interest of all nations, as,well as for the in terest 01 morality, that a stop shtfuldibe put. to this,prac tice. The state.of this very iinportant question at the present moment Whim to say a few words on the rise of the, present system. Very lent aib, at the titlid when the literature of France was at its classical acme, certain publishers in Amsterdam and Geneva used. to pirate the wor;:s of French authors. A great: deal or noise was - made by the French, publishers about tha.rnatter,,but ru the claim for protection which thg French. publishers . put .forward the French authors took little or no part. But they had .a strong reason for not doing, to. There was a system of censorship exercised upon the French press which prevented authors from making knowa their sentiments and opinions, except tinder very stringent re gulations. Ott that aeCount ;authorti did not claim pro tection' either - for themselveS Or.for booksellers. They' preforl'ed .- seeing their worki 'pirated and published withotit any profit to themselves to - having their opinions crUshecl under the Censorship Of the French press. That was the cause of the great anomaly during the period of the re-printing of French works at Amsterdam and Geneva. The - long war subsequently interrupted this traffic, but at its conclusion certain gentlemen in Paris fixed their attention :in the literary works of Great Britain ; they resolve', (to use their (ten phrase), exploiter Ls cerreaus i'autrui, and accordingly they took our • works and published at a very cheap rate those which had cost us much thought, .anxiety, and expense, 4o produce, and that without any indumnification to the British publishers or authors. At first the.matter seemed tolerably reasonable. They said (it was an Italian first commenced the traffic) that they only wanted the works for foreigners, but gradually they . found a very lucrative trade among British subjects, not merely those happening to be on the Continent, but even in our colonies, and in our own country. Each day pre st2nted.new facilities, and suggested new methods of car rying on the trade. Depots were estabished where they could most easily convey those works to England, which they did by various means, and in vast quantities. This trade was then taker up by America and Germany also, and it thus reached that extraordinary pitch at which it had now arrived, and which threatened to destroy, not merely the literature of England, but of the whole world. In America means had lately been devised of publi s hi ng w h o l e B r i t i s h worts of three volumes in the shape of a newspaper, of two sheets, which by means of a postage, merely nominal, was sent not only all over the Union, but into our Canadian possessions, the West Indies, and; in fact, all over our colonies. He (Mr. James), himself, had that very day received, in the shape of a newspaper, a work published in this country not six weeks ago. It had been sent over, by the Great Western steamer, fro:a America. It was a work which cost him considerable labour to'produce (for the work to which he referred was his own), and it was now being distributed all over the United Suites at the price of 25 cents, which he believed amounted to ls. Id. It was impossible to suppose that the practice thus exercised in America would not be brought into operation in other countries also, aiid the ultimate result would be that literature would be absolutely put , an end to when works sold in one country for 1/. 11s. 6d. could be sent over to that country awn another at the price of Is. Id. The effect of the system was felt severely by those engaged in the boos trade and paper trade. Printers, too, who would otherwise be employed, were in consequence thrown out of work. In France, the gentlemen who carried on this system to the greatest extent, were MM. Brodie - and Galignani: They had printed 380 British works, and other houses had printed about 100 more. Those works had a very large sale ; but, taking the average at 2,000 copies . of each volume (reckoning every volume as weighing 11b.), the amount of •British paper that would have been con sumed: w ere 'they printed and published in England, would be-960,0001b5., which would have returned a duty of upwards of 6,000/. to the revenue. Bat in America, where there had been 26,000 copies of works reprinted in this manner, what must be the loss sus tained by the British paper manufacturer, publisher, and auroor ? This, then, was a question which ought to command t! e. speedy az.ention of Government. lie be lieved that Government was most anxious to do what it could in the matter ; and in reforr:ncr to what Govern ment had done and was prepared to do' on the subject, he must info.i.n the meeting how these works were brought into England. Verions means had been employed for that purpose ; but the two principal modes were slipping sheets of British works printed on the Continent between the leaves of l'orei?;11 books imported into N s country. As those books were imported in bales it wes impossible that the Custom h ouse oilicers would t urn over a ll the h leaves of each of the vest number of books in'every bale. °lnlelwwhich ad been granted 1 by The other mode, w, s introducing: single copies. Every pas sene.er was allowed to Wing a singlecopy,p; any British work published oa the Cont i nen t , and the result the cause of w hich hed becom e a d ea d l etter, b at reason to believe, would h ave be et other wllAvaliarrgs.,ese, J if tmees then brhrmisse booksnoptferermfienirsed to the A c t passe d on the i of this rind bein g i m p or t e d. s w u h b i i c ec h t rh e i t n hhea l dl B a 3 t B e , Lord Sydenham, with whom he had Communicated on the s ub j ect, had not been compelled to abandon' the matter in consequence of his departure for Canada.

Another letter from M. Didot , the F rench publisher, gave a similar assurance. H e then went .on to say that, very little difficulty lay in the way of settling the ques old rbve thins, be:needful should all ques tion properly, and he trusted that whatever slight oh siacles there might be to the attainment of so desirable an objeck, Government would remove them. How, de sirable this was, mus t be evident to every one w h o saw the vast number of British works, published in this manner, by Mr. Harper, of New Yo r k. A Bill to g i ve British authors protection in that country had been lately introduced into Congress by Mr. Clay, and for this, and many other reason s, he (Mr. James) thought the present the best opportunity of The Bill adoptiwn,so short that he g measures on the subject in this country. as. would read it to the meeting. (Mr. James then read the Act, and continued). Such 'wee the state of the question at .that moment ; and the ob;ect of Mr. Longman, in calling them together, was that they might determine what stes it was most desi ra bl e t o t a k e . Ile would not trouble them with on e wor d o f r h etor i c , b u t he would earnestly u rge them, both individually and col lectively, not to suffer the subject to drop, but to press the Government energetically, though respectfully, to 140$ Sew effecinel mKture for elf tile evil. He urged them to this • course by their love of country, and by their love of literature—aye, by their love of civilisation itself ; for they might depend upon it, that literature and civilization were united together in a bond, which could never be severed without destruction to both. —(Deer, hear.) He would conclude by moving the fol lowing resolution :—" That a right of property, in lite rary productions, ought to be recognised by all civilised nations." Mr. IL SMITH briefly seconrd the motion ; which, on being put from the Chair, was carried unanimously. Lord W. LENNOX moved ,the following resolution : " That the disregard of that right, by the unauthorised pnblicu . tionof Bititiah works in foreign countries, has greatly tended to discourage and depress the book trade of Great Britain." - Although he had scarcely been aware of the meeting more than half an hour before it com menced, he could not refrain from expressing his disap probation-of the disgraceful system of piracy which was then being carried on in France, Germany, and other countries. In New York the entire works of Shakspeare, in two volumes, and beautifully bound, might be ob tained fir the sum of 33. 6d.—(Hear, hear.) All the modern works of fiction, juvenile works. 1 - lorks chiefly used in college and schools, .and every odr - -_. species of publication, might there be obtained for a very trifling amount. A vast number of works were broeght over from -Frame. He • had offered to him.

MonG (.; in seconding the resolution said, there was oite -fact to which 11l wished ,especially.tb call the attention of the meeting, in reference to chemical and mechanical discoVeries. It appeared that works on such subjects, whiCh cost the publisher an enormous sum of money in wood blocks and *engravings, were sent off and published in other countriA' at a very reduced ,price. Now, if such a practice were suffered to' exist, it was evident that t.cientific productions would soon cease to be published in this country; no one would bring forward a work on science or natural hiitory at, an n n o o t t,p r protected .opt, against n p s i , ra i t c piracy.— (Hear, — a s ( en h c a m r, ot i l l s el e ,r osp if T lr is u l -e v r a e s „mechanical propeCrty, and Fe hoped that as such it would be protected when the property of the brain was . regarded.—(Hear; hear.) The resolution was then agreed to. Mr. DICKENSON rose to move the following resolu tion :—" That this system, in acting 'detritnentally upon the publishing trade of this country, has most'seripusly interfered with the interest of 'the reading publih, by limiting the . legitimate sale or:books . , and rendering a higher rate' 'of charge p6r copy necessary, to meet the general expenses of publication. He had that day receNd a cornmtiniction front Mr, Warren, expressing his 'fe . gret that . h'etOas unable to attend the meeting, but stating that, he - cordially con curred in the resolutions which he htteseen in print, and he further stated that he - Was of - Vnon, that unless some decisive - steps were taken, the interests of British literature would be permanently injured.—(Hear, hear.) They all knew that a great deal of time and labour were 'necessary to produce a good book, and an author of eminent talents, who devoted his time to the public, must, like every other man, be remunerated for his ex ertions ; and then the expeuse of the 'firSt - edition. was greater than that of subsequent editions. - The altera tions' were often very' numerous, and the book must be presented to the public in a shape which would render it acceptable. Now, of course the price to be fixed by the publisher must depend, in: a great .measure, upon the extent of sale,' and if the ranie•of side was small, the public muct necessarily pat a- higher price than they :otherwiFe would pay. •In fact, under', 'the present system the publisher had to. it4ose, art addi-,, h tional tax upon thelmblic, in cOnsequenetchf the defec- , tive state of the IaNV.- 2 =(Hear.) It should be remehthered , that a vast amount Of advertising was 'required to inaiN a Work known. So many things Were Ude "to occupy the public attention, that advertisements' Must he - scat- , tered about in all direetiOns'befere a *ork woUldbeeome, generally known Was it right that the publliher'shotild incur this expense in advertising the French ' Americant edition'of ari Enlist work, oethat the punishment 'of' .this should fall upon that honourable portion of the public Avhich bought the legitimate edition ? He thought they (Light all to unite their energies for the purpose of removing this injustice. Mr. COEBURN, in secondirg the resolution, said that if the present system of piracy were continued, he had no hesitation in saying that there would be an end of literature, sot only in this country, but in every other. —(Hear, hear.) only was the object of authors in writing ? Was it fame ? It was true, that young authors—young aspirants, might be induced to write and publish with that - view. There was Lord Byron, f'or • instance ; but he very soon found out the value of his works, and he did not long continue to make Mr. Murray a present of them—(Laughter)--on the contrary, Mr. Murray had a hard battle to fight, and found it by no means easy to satisfy his Lordship.—(Laughter.) Did any one believe that Sir Walter Scott would have written one-tenth as many works as.lie had done but for the in ducement of money ?—(Hear.) How were publishers to pay authors if their sale was to be cut off, and the works which they published were pirated ?—(Hear.) As Mr: James had already stated, the number of copies printed on the Continent was ten times as great as the number printed in England. Was it possible that literature could flourish under such circumstances ?---(Hear.) He would ask Mr. James whether, if his first work had been pub lished under such circumstances, he would have been in dt•ced to continue wriang ? Mr. JAMES—Certainly not. Mr. COLBURN continued—Had Sir Lytton Bulwer published " Pelham" under such disadvantages, he ven tured to say that the world would not have been delighted with " Eugene Aram, " The Last Days of Pompeii," and " llienzi."—(Hear. hear.) lie hoped every gentle man in that room would exert himself to bring about a change. There was one point which he wished particularly to impress upon the meeting, namely the great difference in the price of books to the English public, in the event of the English publishers being able to supply the American market, the French market, and the foreign markets in general. He believed the price by that means would be reduced one-third. It was net till five or six hundred copies of a work had been sold that the profits commenced, and the vast sale, therefore, in other countries of printed editions of English works must greatly increase the price in this country.—(Hear.) Mr HODGKIN said before the question was put he wished to ask the respectable pUblishers present, whether it wrs no;; in their power, by imitating the Americans, the French,• and the Germans, to produce works as cheaply as they were preduced in other countries. Much had been said about the eipeiiSe of the copyright and the expenses of advertising, but he saw nothing to prevent the British publisher from competing with the foreign pnblisher. or his own part, he was proud to hear that the works of his countrymen were being spread through Germany, France, and the United States. He saw no reason why the English publishers, by printing works in a cheap form, should not be able to compete with foreigners. If they told him of heavy expenses, he must Fay he thought they were not taking the most effectual means of getting rid or them. England was at present, the prey of a great system of high prices, and he thought that by exerting themselves, to reduce them, and so remove that evil, they would do more for England than by endeavouring to bolster up the prices of literature. Mr. JAMES said the matter appeared to him as plain as possible. He did not see how a man who paid alarge sum for a book could possibly sell it as cheap as another who paid nothing.—(Hear, hear.) _ _ After a few words from Mr. DicitEtisosi and Lord W. LENNOX, the resolution was put from the Chair and car ried. there being two dissentients. Mr. T. LONGMAN moved the following resolution : "That the means employed for smuggling copies of spurioas editions into Great Britain and its dependencies are so art; ul, and the opportunities so great, that the most effectual remedy which can be applied to this evil appears to this meeting l o be the conclusion.of treaties' with threign Powers for the mutual recognition of literary property." He also presented to the meetine e' % letters which be bad received from Sir E. L. Bulwer, Mr. Sergeant Talfourd, and Mr. Shelidaii Knowles, stating their regret at being unable to attend, and their cordial concurrence in the ob ject for which the meeting was called. Mr. BLACKWOOD having seconded the resolution, it was adopted by the meeting. Dr. THOMPSON moved the following resolution : " That, - while this- meeting feel most grateful to Go vernment for the additional protection which has be en lately given to literature, they cannot but view with deep. regret the keg delay which has taken place in carrying out the intentions of the Legislature, expressed in the Act 1 end 2 Victoria, cap. 59 , passed July 31, 1838, called The International Copyright Act." Mr. JAMES SIMPSON seconded the resolution, and it was carried unanimously. Mr. SPOTTISWOODE moved the next resolution : , " That having received assurances from the chief book sellers of France and Germany of their great willingness and d_ sire to see the security of literary property estab lished by treaty between Great Britain and their several countries, and also learning that a Bill with the same object is now before the American Congress , this meet• ing believes the present moment to be peculiarly !ltvour able for bringing to a successful issue any negotiations on the subject of international copyright." The resolution having been seconded by Mr. J. BRIT.. TON, and supported by Mr. BUCKINGHAM, was unani mously adopted. Mr. rooLz proposed, and Mr. T. Wool) seconded the following resolution :—" That a Memorial be drawn up and addressed to the proper departments of the Govern ment, embodying the.foregoing resolutions, and beseech ing her Majesty's Government. to. givo the §ubject their immediate attention, and take such means as they ma judge wog ea edient to induce foreign rowerh witk the least delay, to accede to so just and rational a measure." The resolution w•as agreed to. A vote of thanks to the Chairman having been pro posed.by Lord W. LENNOX, seconded by Mr. J. SIMP SO, and adopted, the meeting then separated.

The chemist, the physiologist, the medical man, aril the agriculturist, will all find in this volume many new ideas and many useful, pi actical remark:.

The following Companies have them on their vim ks, and allow them to be used by their tenants, viz.:—Chartered, Im perial, Equitable, Ratcliffe, South Metrovolitan, London, Phomniz, Poplar, Independent, and many country Gas Com panies.

CATALOGUE, with ENGRAVINGS (Gratis), POSTAGE FREE.—The celebrity of the rich and silvery appearance and extreme durability of the material made ex clusively by ourselves, has induced many attempts to foist upan the public the notoriously deleterious German Silver under the guises of " Albata Plate," " Berlin Silver," &c. tsc., against which we especially wr-..n them. Aided by an eminent chemist, we have sieceeded in purifying etre material so that acids do not affect i; ; it is now so well known and appreciated that it is s'niversally superseding silver in all its uses. The genu'ne Lietal, which is more durable than silver, can only be had at our warehouses.

LONDON FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 1, 1842. The motion which Mr. WALLAcE is to bring on this evening, relative to the condition of the country, is in the present circumstances extremely important. We be lieve it will come on early, immediately after Lord JOHN RussELL's Bribery Bill has been disposed of. The Liberal Members will no doubt feel it their duty to attend and speak on the question. From all the incormation which reaches us, we conclude that the manufacturing districts are daily getting worse and worse. Too soon measures cannot be adopted to avert the calamity that is impending over the country ; immediately to relieve distress is now, we are afraid, beyond human power. Those Members assuredly will neglect their duty who fail to attend, and who do not in an earnest and solemn manner throw the responsibility of the present and uture condition of the country off their own shoulders, and place it on the shoulders of Sir R. PEEL. A meeting of Members of Parliament with the De putation from the Manufacturing Districts took place yesterday, at Brown's Hotel, Palace-yard, to make the Members acquainted with the condition of those districts, and consult what is to be done in the present alarming crisis. The statements made by Mr. H. STANS FIF:LD of the condition of tte town and neighbour hood of Leeds, in which 4Q,000 persons are in a state of destitution, and require assistance, and which re presents the condition of the bulk of Yorkshire and Lancashire, were truly appalling. That condition, however, is far better known than the means of re medying it. It has been of late so frequently described that persons have almost ceased, we are afraid, to think it worthy of notice. At any rate it no longer makes the impression it ought on the public, and we rather turn to the remedy than again dwell on a disease, the long continuance of which has made the public think too little of it. The remedies proposed all centered in getting rid of the Corn-laws, but the practical question is how CP , I that now be accomplished. There appears to be no hope nor means of accomplishing it. The Parlia ment has placed itself in a false petition by passing Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Bill, and will not undo its OWII bad work. It was proposed to move in the House of Commons that the Deputation be heard at the bar ; it was proposed to stop the remaining supplies till the Government relieve the people ; it was proposed to bombard the house with cer tain resolutions and propositions, which shall induce the House to :take the subject into its earnest consideratiouni.tesluirrheatht a w t i t l h l e b re e i d s o n n o e, u,ay*, we know not ;but we are q of infl uenc i n g the .i'arlianient so certain, as by ap-' peli:luseing,:fo citosLea:ni.s azAes afraid, , as ir , a : gentlemen go oa ca cause, ti ca ll e d factious--as long as gvatleraer, out of doors profess a most clutsifullesiguatimi to wI . ,labover '~ ,• t id Lsa ,91 of io4 Ale 0 110' t he eel!,
