SIGHT RESTORED!—NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE AND DEAFNESS CURED! By the most simple, delightful, and fragrant Compound! Its mode of application is fraught with pleasure ; many thou sand cures have boen accomplished by its use, at a trifling ex pense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary toinduce the sufferer to make trial, Kings, Lords, and Com mons have used it. The Lords of the Treasury have sanction its use. Their late Majesties, the Duchess of Kent, the most eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners —with that gigantic balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grimstone's Eye Snuff," for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eyes and Head.

ENCOURAGEMENT TO MEN OF GENIUS BY TIRE PRE SENT GOVERNMENT.—We have the pleasure of an nouncing- to the friends of the late Mr. Samuel Crompton, the ingenious inventor of the spinning machine, called the mule, that the Rev.

Gilmour Robinson, to be equally divided between Mr. George Crompton, of ream burst, in Lower Darwen, and his brother and sister. of Bolton, children of the above-mentioned Mr. Samuel CroinptOn. This is a well-timed and justly merited reward !—Blackburn Standat'd. As a patrol of the National Guards were passing on Wednesday night, says the Droit, near the Chateau d'Eu, a young woman, whose .appearance announced the greatest disorder, rushed into the midst of the solediem, and, in Eng:llsh • implored prot ec ti on . Th e officer, who understo o d the language, interrogated her and by degrees drew from her the following account : " She was,.'.she said, " a native of London, where she had always resided until a few days 'ago. Her father, having been unfortunate in business, she was obliged to try to earn her own living as companion to a lady, and, to effect this, inserted advertisements in some of the London papers. They produced an offer from a Frenchman of gentlemanly appearance to take her to Paris, where such a situation as she sought awaited her. He offered her money to defray the expenses of-the journey, which she was to return out of her salary. She accepted the proposition, deem ing it an exceedingly advantageous one, and they set out. She arrived that morning at Paris, and was taken by her travelling companion to a house, where they were very well received, as well as, from her ignorance of the French, she could form a judgment. As she was greatly fatigued, she retired to rest at an early hour, and soon fell asleep. She was roused up some time after by bursts of laughter, the shock of glasses, and the fall o f b ott l es. She jumped out of bed, and, after having dressed her self in the dark, felt her way to the saloon whence the noise proceeded. There seven or eight young women, and as many men, were collected round a table, lit up only by the flames of an immense bowl of punch! She felt at once that'she was in an improper house, and her first idea was to make her escape. Luckily, the wholeparty were so drunk, that she had no difficulty in getting away, and she had been wandering about the streets for the last hour." When taken before the commissary of police she persisted in the same state ment, but could not give any precise information as to the house from which she had escaped. The police are busily engaged in trying - to discover where it is situated.— Galignani. POLICE,KASE. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) QUEEN'S SQUARR.--A case of considerable import ance connected with fraudulent dealing has engaged the-Magistrates' attention at this office for some time past. The complainant, Mr. John Cowhead, a gen tleman of_small fortune, aud, it would appear, of less wit, made complaint of having been awfully takea in and nearly done for, by a firm which establishedthem selves in Westminster aboat eighteen months ago, and who have been doing a swingeing trade in'their particular line ever since. From the character of se of the Amused being seitni-known, it is mar vellous they succeeded so well. It appears to have been - agreed amongst them that the business should be commenced and a board hung out, announcing the firm, " Arthur Duke and Company," one very likely to catch the unwary ; the said Arthur Duke having a character for some little of. honesty, a suspicion not likely 'to attach to - any other of the gang. With this convenient cover, they set to work, and one of their first victims appears to have been Mr. Cowhead, whom they completely bamboozled, together with a great many of his relations. Mr. Cowhead, whoSe affairs were slightly deranged, had been induced, by the fraudulent representations of the set,- .uud.er ..npFoqse of a. speedy mid.satisfaatory, adjustment, to place matters handS'i sooner were they in possession of Mr. Cowliead's powers, &c., than they turned round on the old gen tleman, fleeced him enormously for their services, and Jaughed,, at the bloekhead _ for. his folly.. .phis proceeding excited no surprise ,in any one., excepting Mr. Cowhead and his family,' the rest of the'world, well knowing the lot, did not, for one moment, doubt their intentions or their capabilities for such work. Mr. Cowhead, considering that Mr. Duke must fairly be answerable for the doings of the firm, applied to him for redresS, when, to the astonishment of Mr. Cowhead • and to some others, Mr. Duke dis claimed all responsibility, and, further, th a t he had no c on t ro l or influence as to the manner they conducted the business. Failing in getting anything satisfactory from Mr. Duke; Mr. Cowhead was induced to apply to the Magistrate, in order to point out to him, more particularly, several members of the gang. First, and the most active one amongst them, is rather a rum one at any kind of work—not at all particular. He calls himself a Cabinet-hand, at the same time it is well known he is only a " polisher ;" but at this part of the business he has considerable dexterity. The thing must be bad indeed which he cannot put a face upon. . Mr. Cow head complained bitterly of Bob (for he at last gave his name) doing him in a most cruel manner at the Tamworth exhibition—he had induced Mr. C. to put his head into the " lucky bag," where he " should see what he should see !" No sooner had he so placed it than the gang set on him, turned his pockets inside out, and took most especial care of their contents, Bob all the while preaching loudly, cautioning Mr. C. against bad advice and bad company. Mr. Cowhead here handed in a bill, which announced a list of the performances, where, independently of calling him self a great doctor, able and willing to cure all kinds of diseases, he professed to do feats of -great,dexterity —but oh ! this world, & c . His " poor mans plaster" was nothing but a blister of the. worst kind. His " soothing syrup" a regular hocussing drop. His " all" has produced gangrene, which it is thought will requ i re y ears to shake • off. His advic e and regulations as t o o i et are in a fair way for bringing a g rea t many of his a tients to an un timely grave. Th en , as to his dexterity, he promised to do•sine " splendid balancing," when, after a con siderable flouri s h, h e p l ace d the points of three sticks upon his nose. On the top of one was a ship; on the other a loom ; and on the third a plough. At the first move clown came the loom, nearly shattered to pieces ; the ship .soon followed ; the plough, by the assistance of both hands,.he held on with for some little time, then carefully replaced it in the breeches pocket of a particular friend, Who - generally assists him at these exhibitionS.- It is needless to say, not one half which he.promised had ever been performed, and that which he did attempt was done in the most bungling manner, but with due caution. The bill states—No money returned. The next man in the firm is a crafty . old chap, whom they call the "Lawyer," one down to every thing and up to most — a question has o f ten b een raised as to his true calli ng. It was strong l y as -- serted, and believed, that he served his appren ti ces hip to the Wigbusiness; this he stoutly denie d, yet the evidence showed clearly that if not a Wig hand he had been a "complete shaver." Another of the gang is " Burly Jim," rather an awkward customer, a great .hand at "ringin g the changes." Many years ago h e opened a regu l ar flash and blazing concern at Hull, afterwards in Cumber land, but being found out, h e was o bli ge d t o run . Since then he has chiefly exhibi ted at sma ll p l aces , but now, having started again, and in a large way, he seems disposed to be rather reckless, therefore will re quire well looking after. Another member is " Tamboff," rather active, and might be useful, but a sad infirmity of temper makes it difficult to find for him suitable employment. He questions, but his waspish crontinued not a single friend waspish ness l f dl o v r as mer form er ly o nt h e n had l e f t. H e was k ep t i n such c s t e ch t ear tot had a h n a s I l : h t ee 'e the back shop. There is great hope of his being found useful as regards the present connexion. It is thought that ultimately he will expose their shocking doings, he having a peculiar delight in damaging his friends. The Magistrate heard Die. Cowhead's statement with much patience and some pity, but assured the appliCant he could do nothing for him, and further observed he thought Mr. C. nearly deserved all he had got for being such a flat as to place his affairs in such hands. Nearly at the close of Mr. Cowhead's statement, a person called Lively Dick, a sort of west country tin man and coppersmith, stepped forward and addressed the Magistrate saying he was anxiou s to support Mr. Cowhead's case ; the Magistrate heard Dick's state ment, and observed, that his firm conviction was that Dick's anxiety did not arise from any commiseration for or good feeling towards Mr. Cowhead, but solely from a desire to be revenged on some old confederates for refusiner , him his share of the plu n d er ; in fact, doing Dick out of his " regulars." lle therefore thought Mr. Lively's evidence of very small value. As Mr. Cowhead was about to leav e the otfice, a wag whispered him as to ever having had his fortune told, and strongly recommended him to appl ., .) to the wise man of the East—a certain City Solon, rather skilful in dealing with the false pretence gentry —who would be uncommonly likely to take up the Case, and see Mr. Cowhead righted. o f th e political drama in 1842. The theatre was crowded OPENING OF PARLI AA IENT.—We k now not when that at the real more of curiosity and of expectation were combined i n sta ngnelamps its shone parts. The ,h applause of th e T o ry galleries was all p repared, and opening g ortners were known to be only awaited th e signal. 1 e brightly. Th e gre at pr behind the scenes ; the scenery, machinery, dresses, and furnishings were all said to be new, and to be got up under the direction of the new manager. The pre mier coup d'areket was heard; but when the curtain rose, and the performance was begun, greater asto nishment and surprise could not have been created on comparing the pla y -bill with the represe n t a ti on, than if the tr age d y o f Cato had been substituted for the Agreeable Surprise, or the dead march in Saul for bridal chorus of the Fieyschutz. It is true, that all the actors _ whose names were announced, made their appearance ; but, alas for the lovers of the melodrama! the actors appeared in new characters, and their dresses and machinery were those which had been so long worn and used by their rivals and predecessors. It is tree that this bold confide n ce in the indulg ence of the audience succeeded to a certain extent; but, perhaps, the cause was a theatrical one. The goo d folk s had • paid their money at the door, they had secured their seats, and. if they had yielded to their discontent, they might have been left without any Play at all, or have been condemned to call back her Majesty's former servants. — ,E'dinburgh•Reviow, ~ ' Mr. Cronin, Surgeon to the Dispensary for Asthma, Consumption, and Diseases of the Heart, Liverpool, at the Portico in that town, delivered lately a most impor t taut and highly interesting lecture on the cause and cure of Pulmonary Consumption. In the course of his intro duction Mr. Cronin observed that over 55,000 perish an nually in this country of consumption ; that it was on the increase among the middle and upper classes of so ciety. As his views were different from the generality of the medical profession, ho would first notice -the situation, structure, and use of the lungs and the bony case which surrounds them, and next the doctrines generally received by the medical profession in reference to this disease, and the various peculiar remedies at different times prescribed for the cure of pulmonary consumption. In these two ' branches of his sub ject Mr. Cronin showed considerable talent and research, and explained the first part by diagrams of the chest and lungs, which were exhibited on the stage, and then noticed briefly the numerous, and in many instances absurd, remedies recommended. The Lecturer then proceeded to state his opinion. He con sidered that consumption arose from debility, which in stead, as was generally supposed, being attendant on consumption, was in fact the primary cause of this in curable disease ; that consumption was a disease of the general system, and not primarily confined to the lungs ; that it did not arise from the deposit of certain matter, which produced tubercle, but from unnatural pressure of the adjacent parts, brought ou by general and extensive debility ; that this debility arose from many causes, from irritation of the nervous system, improper food, insufficiency of clothing, want of cleanliness, sudden changes of atmosphere, &c.; that the mus cular system, from the prevailing debility, became completely relaxed, in consequence of which the bony case which surrounds the lungs, presses on them, produ cing in the first place congestion ; inflammation followed, and the other distressing sympteml, as difficulty of breathing, cough, &c., were the consequences. The Lec turer strongly deprecated tight lacing as an irrational practice, which was very liable to produce consumption. Mr. Cronin next proceeded to explain the treatment adopted by him to give immediate relief. Acting upon the idea that pressure of the bonexon the lungs was the great cause of the disorder, he put into aglass a few drops of aromatic spirit. Having ignited the spirit, he placed the mouth of this glass on the lower part of the pit of the patient's stomach, and drew it quickly across the body. _ The effect was, the flesh occupied the vacuum in the glass, and thus raised the abdo 14i/ial muscles. The glass reltYglefttlydtewleur ` - ceittpresodAtiwetk'palet def . :UW .I S bt4ailt-'lOtfeaVel; • vated, whieh allowed the air to rush freely into the com pressed lungs, affording instant relief.

CA Correspondent informs us that Mr. Cronin, during the few days he has been in London, has fully proved the importance of his discovery—one case, that of confirmed consumption, Mr. A. Cartwright, Clerk of the Inland Navigation and Sloop Office, Custom House ; and another, a most distressing case of asthma—Mr. Gelling, 53 Ticket-porter, Hunger flnal-market, in the presence of Mr. Faint, surgeon, St. Martin's-lane, and Mr. Forsyth, West Strand.] THE PRESTON ROBBERY OF 'TWO THOUSAND POUNDS. BIRKENHEAD, WEDNESDAY.—EIiza Bailey, who (with a male acquaintance) was examined on several occasions at Union-hall, before Mr. Traill, and even tually set at liberty, there net being sufficient evi dence to warrant a committal, was brought to this place, where she has undergone three examinations at the Town-hall, the last of which took place last evening, and ended in her committal for trial. The examinations have taken place before Mr. J. D. Case, a Magistrate of the county, and, owing to the activity and zeal of Mr. G. Palmer, special high constable of the hundred of 'Wirral, such a chain of circumstances have been collected together as left the worthy Ma gistrate no other course to pursue than the one he has adopted. The prisoner, who appeared very fashionably at tired, was defended by Mr. Owen, a solicitor from Liverpool, who cross-examined the witnesses at very great length. Mr. John Marquis, of Accrington, in the county of Lancaster, gentleman, st a t e d th a t on t h e 17th of August last he received from the bank of Messrs. Cutiliffe, Brooks, and Co., at 131aAtUrn, the sum of 3,9341. 6s. 2d. All of this sum consisted of Bank of England notes, except the odd 41. 6s. 2d., which was in gold and silver. 'lhree thousand- o 1 this he paid into the bank, and on Sunday morning, the 4th of Sep tember, he counted over the notes he had left, and placed them in his pocket-book. They consisted of two 500/. notes, and nine 1001. notes. These he placed in his pocket .book, and put it into the left hand breast-pocket of his coat. On the morning of the sth, witness (as nearly as he can recollect, about two o'clock in the afternoon) saw the notes all safe in his pocket. He walked about the streets of Preston until the evening, up the main street towards the church. When opposite the church a man and woman came up to him. The man took hold of his left arm and the woman his right, when the former said to him, " Are you taking a walk ?" He immediately dis engaged himself, and said " No." They then left him, and ran across the street to where a number of persons were standing, and he, lost sight of them. On searching he found his pocket-book was gone, and he immediately gave information to the police. The witness said he thought the prisoner was the female who spoke to him. _ Ellen Lodge, barmaid at Mr. Watson's, the Railway Inn, at Birkenhead, said she recollected the prisoner in company with a man come to her master's house on Tuesday, tl►e 6th of September, about one o'clock. They remained in the house until about half-past three o'clock, when they went away towards the Chester Railway. ..- - Another of Mr. Watson's servants gave similar tes timony, both being certain the prisoner was the person. Mr. Watson, the landlord of the Railway Inn, de posed to going to the water-closet shortly after the parties left his house, and to finding a piece of paper on the floor, which, on examination, turned out to be a MO/. note, with a 101. inside of it. (These notes were produced and identified as part of the notes, Mr. Marquis received at Blackburn. Mr. Wilson the manager of Messrs. Cunliffe, Brookes, and do.'s bank at Blackburn, deposed to pay ing to Mr. Buck, solicitor of Burnley, the sum men tioned by Mr. Marquis, on account of the latter. He identified the notes found in the water-closet as part of the money. Mr. Buck, solicitor, on being called, stated that within a few minutes of his receiving the money he handed it over to Mr. Marquis, except 726/.125. lid., which he retained to pay off a mortgage. In cross-examination by Mr. Owen, he said most probably he should retain a .500/., two 1001., and two 10/. notes, to pay the mortgage. Mr. Owen then, at very great length, contended that there was not sufficient evidence to justify the Magistrate in committing his client for trial. As the notes which had been retained by Mr. Buck had not been traced, it was fair to presume that those found might be part of that sum. Mr. Case said he had given the evidence the best : 1 ) 1 s i e t t h o e t ake prisoner her tr i al t o trial. for She th n f e er c e e o t r a e attention, and he w as b oun d to say that he felt he should not be perf orm i ng hi s duty as a Magistrate if s h t e o od did clol t ni n t tedd the next Knutf or d S ess i ons. The prisoner, a ft er b e i ng caut i one d , was as k ed if thecff she had anything to say, when, by the advice of Mr. Owen, she repli e d " Nothing." She was then removed, manifesting the utmost apparent indifference. BURGLARY, ROBBERY, AND ATTEMPTED MURDER. (From the Worcester Chronicle) _ It is our painful duty to record the particulars of a daring burglary and robbery, accompanied with brutal violence, perpetrated in this county yesterday se'nnight, which, but for the merciful interposition of Providence, might have been equally dreadful in its results with the atrocious murder near Derby, as one of the aged sufferers was so dreadfully beaten about the head and face, that his neighbours could scarcely recognise his features, when they discovered him next morning, blindfolded, and with his hands tied behind him. The scene of this atrocious' outrage is in the parish Shelsley, about a quarter of a mile from Stanford, and the sufferers are two aged men, named Wm. and Benjamin Butler, who had the reputation of being well off, though their habits were miserly and penurious in the extreme. Their residence was for merly a mill, but it has long since ceased to be used as such, and has been roughly fitted up to serve as a dwelling for them. It is situated in a most lan i gy .spot, at a considerable distance from any lather house, on the banks of the Teme. ThQ path to the house is nearly hidden by trees, and the building generally presents the appearance of being Uninhabited. This is the third time the house has been robbed, but the ruffians never carried thPir violence to such a pitch as they did on the present occasion. It seems to have been known in the neighbourhood that William Butler (who is the monied brother), had been receiving his rents, and in the middle of the night of Tuesday last, the brothers were alarmed at hearing some one breaking into the house. In a short time three villains made their appearance, but the af frighted inmates fancied they heard a fourth outside. Tl.e ruffians (who were armed with heavy bludgeons, one or more pistols, and a razor), first seized Benjamin Butler, blindfolded.hi m , tied his hands and feet, and beat him about th e head in a most brutal manner. They next laid hold of William, and after ill-using him, demanded his money, using the most dreadful threats if he did not forthwith give it to them. Find ing that he showed some hesitation to comply with their demands, one or more of the ruffians returned to the other brother, and, holding a razor to his throat, swore they would murder him unless he told them where the money was kept. Terrified at their violence, poor Benjamin shrieked out, " Give 'em , the money, William, to save our lives. Thus adjured, 'William took them into a sort of barn, and showed them where the money was hidden, and in a few seco n d s th e bur glars' possessed themielves of 601. They afterwards took a quantity of cloth and several other articles, and finally quitted the house. Owing to the brutal vio lence to which he had been subjected, Benjamin Butler fell into a state of insensibility, and 'William was too frightened either to go to his assistance or to stir out of the house until day-break, when be went and alarmed his nearest neighbours, - who speedily came and discovered Benjamin in the Condition which we have described. They conld not find him for Some time, which led to the suspicion that he had been liilled outright. Notwithstanding the brutal treatment he has received he is likely to do well. Information of the outrage was speedily conveyed to the county police, and a man named Thomas Hadda was speedily apprehended, and placed in the custody of Superintendent Taylor, of the Great Witley divi sion. On being confronted with Benjamin Butler, he at once identified him as one of *e, men who broke into the house on the night in quertiotti , i' He conse quently unflerwent a brief examination, after which he was remanded till 'Wednesday.

We believe that both the brothers are above seventy years of age, and as it was known that they resided entirely by themselves (not having any female even in the house to 'attend . to their domestic arrangements), it is presumed they were deemed safe parties to at tack. The elder brother, William, kept a school in Friar-street, Worcester, some twenty years ago, and still possesses some property in that locality. SPECIAL COMMISSIONS. LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.

TRIAL OF COOP.ER FOR ARSON. Reuben Greatbach, reporter on the North Stafford shire Mercury, was under examination when our re port broke off yesterday. The following is the con tinuation of the trial up to the rising of the Court this evening : James Wilding heard Cooper addressing the meet ing at the Crown-bank. He said there was plenty on the ground, and winter was coming, and he did not know who was to gather the harvest. He did not tell them to gather it. He alluded to the Court of Re quests at Leicester, and said the landlords had been obliged to pay their own rents there. He also alluded to the yeomanry. William Palmer saw Cooper at the Royal Oak, and on his being told about the burnings, he said, " It is all right; that is the way to do the work. If they go on in that way we shall soon have the Charter." This witness was cross-examined by the prisoner as to whether he referred to the turn-outs or the burn ings ; but he could not tell to which the prisoner al luded. Benjamin Lewis—l am a dyer at Hanley. On the 15th of August I was at a meeting at the Crown bank. I saw the prisoner there, and heard him read ing resolutions which had been come to by the people of Bilston, Wolverhampton, and South Staffbrdshire.

He demanded a of all labour, and all hands were held up. There were none against the resolution. He said' a good deal about the soldiers —that if 100 soldiers were sent to that town, nine towns would be without any ; that if they could only agree amongst themselves :there were sufficient on the ground. I saw the attack that day on the Police -office. I was at the Crown-bank, at the meeting in the evening. I saw the prisoner there. He came down leading the people, and sing ing a hym n . H e ascen d e d a p l at f orm, an d sa id h e would give out a hymn to which the chorus was, " Lion of Freedo m .'

QUESTIONABLE FOOD.—The blind traveller Holman stated that at Fernando Po a couple of lambs, grown to no more than six inches long, were served up to him by order of the King. Galen reports of swine, that their flesh possesses no less than 50 flavours, and is greatly assimilant in kind to human flesh. DuCha 7 telin relates that in his days dogs and cats were eaten at Paris as they now are in China ; indeed, Sir Joseph Banks and Dr. Solander affirm that dog's flesh is the sweetest imaginable. At Rome, camel's heels were the choicest tit-bit for an epicure's tooth. Whale's tongues ranked among the delicacies feasted on in the middle century by Europeans. The Caffre eats hi* lion for food, and the traveller Bruce among them ate his lion-steak with gusto. At Rio Janeiro an ordi nary dish is a monkey pie ; and the head of the ape is left to appear above the crust for ornament, in the style of the feet in our pigeon pies. G_ LOBE INSURANCE.
