If a man, from his knowledge, science, or art, could cause the slightest down to grow upon your skin, on a part where there was none, and could give goad rational grounds for his so doing, we should then have sufficient reason to hope that the same person would arrive at the knowledge of co vering our heads with hair when bald, and where there was none. I had on the middle joint of one of the middle toes of the left foot, a very slight contraction of the articulation, with a little turgidity, and the skin looked whitish and shining. It, perhaps, had existed there twenty years (for I do not remember its appearance), gave me no pain, and did not prevent me wearing any shoe. All I know is, that it was there for many many years :—the nicest anatomist or sculptor would only have said that there was some imperfection in it; a little contraction and swelled skin it certainly had. One day lately I felt pain on it, on the bone farther down, close to the body of the foot, a Yiptle hardness and redness like a flea-bite ; but I felt, at the same time, that the pain was deep, and reached the bone. It went on Increasing; and the whole of that part of the foot became Inflamed and swelled, and for two days I could scarcely walk. Those about me recommended various applications, common in such cases; but I rejected them, sensible of the only cause from which it could proceed, and confident in the vegetable universal medicine to eradicate that cause. I was otherwise in perfect health, and could have walked thirty miles the day before it attacked me. It is to be remarked, too, that on the other side of the artieulation, towards the point of the toe, there was not the least inflammation; this shows how the blood acts—it had detached the humour, and was conveying it up to the bowels to be purged off. As I expected, in a few days more the inflammation subsided; and, what is still more, the whole contraction and littleswelling were gone. Science or knowledge, without knowing the cause how this insignificant change on my toe was brought about, is no knowledge at all, and is lost to the world; you can make no use of it on other occa sions. The cause of the change on my toe arose from this:— my blood was then purified by three years' use of the vegetable universal medicine, and I was in good health. I have before said, in the body of this advice, that the blood, the life of man, when perfectly purified,becomes penetrating, elastic, energetic. It strives to have uncontrolled sway in all its dominions, the body, and to be itself everywhere, to nourish all properly. More nice than the anatomist or sculptor, and jealous of its rights, the blood had found out this little corner on the articulation of my toe, where one of its bitter enemies had established himself for many years. This enemy was a humour, and the cause of the contraction; the pure blood, strong and active, enters into combat with it, subdues, and expels it. This was the cause of the inflammation—the humour, being dislodged, spread itself over the other parts, till, by the cir. culation, it was to be conveyed to the bowels to be carried off. One may judge of the malignity of the humours when this, not so big as half a small pea, could occasion such pain. This was the consequence of more than a thousand doses of the vegetable universal medicine, which did not disable me, all that time, from any occupation or amusement. This may be compared to the last conquest the blood had to make to regain possession of its dominions. " From this occurrence on the toe, one may draw inferences and knowledge of the most useful nature. We may consider it as the seed of a disease, which had planted itself there, and only waited a favourable opportunity of spreading itself, which would have de pended on my mode of life and state of blood ; fur example, four years ago, being so ill, and pains in some other parts of my feet, that I could scarcely walk, if, instead of using the vegetable universal medicine, I had followed the advice of physicians, cronies, and such like, and WM, as th• expreesion its, bracers, fortifiers, rostrums, or specifics—this same humour on the toe would have been fostered up into the gout, or some such thing, and if alive at this day (which was not probable), 1 should have been Infirm and bed. ridden." Ail those who are desirous of becoming further acquallited with the &pure system of medicine should read the abridged " Morison iana," price ed., also the " Hygeist," and other Hygeian publica tions, containing monthly, rep ats of cures, of every curable com plaint, which way be had of all the Agents for Mo, icon's Medicines throughout the , country, and at the Hygeist Office, 563, Strand, L widen.

Prise 2d.; and may be had of all the Hygeian agents, or sent free on enclosing a 4d. piece, or four postage stamps, to the British College of Health, New road, London. I n the exhibition of the valuable property we have glanced at, may be part icularl y n oticed Thornhill Pa r k, in Southampton, the residence of Mr. Hoy, the late ALP. for Southampton; on the mansion alone he has expended 28,0001. The residence of the Baroness de Feucheres, in the New Forest, is also a splendid abode, and has consumed 20,0001. The on dits of the island say that either would have been preferred by her Majesty if she had been advised to see them. We are told that in consequence of their death the representatives of both have suggested to Mr. George Robins that the sale must be positive. A reference to our advertising department exhibits a greater display of property than has been perceptible for many months ; but this is not all ; it includes so muck that is really recherclve, that wo can conscientiously recommend a peep into these announcements to our readers, and especially those who are accounted capitalists. The Westminster Bank allow (as a mark of special favour) one and a half per cent. on loans for three and six months. The Joint-stock Banks have reduced their interest to one per cent , and the Three per Cents. are at par—such a combination of circumstances surely must or ought to regulate the value of all sorts of property, that will bear a searching investigation, and pay a much higher rate of interest. The West India Dock Company discharged the Penelope, Ward, from Trinidad, consisting of 358 hhds, 63 blrxels sugar, and 147 puncheons molasses, in wetl and-a-half hours. 44f s t "'''Z -74 0 -C'TA ;1 - 4 , 4 7 , " rA 7 " tikt ; W 4, 0"4 li 4 •% ‘ ,W nisii.a E • " "' intorr • DUNCOMBE TESTIMONIAL! ! !

The House of Lords went into Committee on the Factories Bill ; and, after some discussion, and a division, all the clauses were agreed to, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time on Monday. In the Commons, the order of the day was read for going into Committee on the Ecclesiastical Courts 13111, when Mr. T. DUNCOMBE moved an instruction to the Committee to abolish all ecclesiastical courts, and transfer the jurisdiction of these courts to civil tribunals. The motion was lost, by a majority of 115 to 70. A number of other amendments were proposed, as particular clauses were brought forward, all in favour of the Bill. After some discussion, the Chairman reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again. In answer to a question from Mr. lIvAtE, Sir R. PEEL fixed the 10th inst. to proceed with the Bank Charter Bill. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at a Quarter to One o'clock. The scene in the Dublin Court of Queen's Bench on Thursday, was one which, we believe, has no parallel in the history of the country. The man who has more power in Ireland than any other leader ever I had, who is looked up to by the bar, and even by the , bench, as the first lawyer of the day, who has long held a prominent place in the House of Commons, and virtually represented the whole of his native land, was brought up before his colleagues, several of them his juniors, to receive judgment. On his entrance, the bar rose simultaneously, and cheered him, the judge who pronounced sentence wept like a child, and when the chief traverser (we use the un couth epithet enjoined by law) declared his innocence, " three times three" and " one cheer more" were given for O'CONNELL. Was ever martyr so honoured ? And martyrdom it may be justly called. We have said all along that he has not had a fair trial. Lord Chief Justice DENMAN, and all his colleagues, have virtually as serted the fact; no English jury would have con victed him on such evidence ; yet from political pre judice, or ignorance, or something worse, the first man in Ireland—the greatest benefactor of his coun try—has been shut up within the four walls of a prison like a felon, and at the age of sixty-eight is subjected to a severe and disgraceful punishment before the law has had its full course. An appeal is to be made to another tribunal—an appeal, too, which, from every possible calculation, will be successful; yet in these times, in an age more distinguished for humanity than any other to be • found in the range of history, the law of the infernal regions is still the law of the land. It is the law of PLUTO, " Castigatque auditque dolo3." Suppose be had been convicted of high trea son, and condemned to death, could not the SOVE REIGN have respited the sentence until full inquiry had been made whether it was just or unjust? This is an every day occurrence, even while we have no courts of appeal for capital offences. Yet, in this instance, where there is a court of appeal, and the judgment of the lower court may be reversed, the punishment is inflicted, whilst the victim is suffering for a crime of which he may be declared by the highest authority entirely innocent. We •have never approved of the monster meetings assembled by Mr. O'CoN NELL, but, in a spirit of justice, we have been inclined to view them as we would view the acts of a man driven to desperation, tvhen he found there was no other means of protection, and took the law into his own hands. This is the case of Mr. O'CoNNELL. He had tried every legitimate means to obtain redress for the insufferable grievances of his country, he bad brought forward motions, he had resisted motions in Parliament, but all in vain ; the Tory and Orange party were too powerful ; none of his countrymen though they form a third of the United Empire were admitted into office ; they were treated as aliens in blood, and religion, and politics ; the clergy of the people were described as surpliced ruffians; and the whole nation was regarded as a conquered tribe. He was hunted to death, and he turned upon his pursuers. Is this a crime ? Is a man not to be forgiven for exceeding the bounds of the law, when he finds that law will not protect him ? He may be imprudent, but he is not morally guilty. This is the decision to which his country men have come, and not the mob, the offseeurings of the people only, but the first men of the land, and the leading barristers in the Four Courts. The Govern • meet have obtained a victory, but have they rendered Ireland more secure ? They have excited a spirit which will rankle in the heart of every repealer, and make the Catholics cry for vengeance on their op pressors. • _ The Post of this morning observes, in the course of an article suggested by the visit of the Emperor of RUSSIA to England, whose shores he has by this time touched—" The presence of his Imperial Majesty, si multaneously with the King of SAXONY, in this coun try, will infuse a fresh impetus into the gaities and festivities which are already in the course of preparas tion. We feel sure that all classes of the community will fully appreciate the honour of this visit, and that Englishmen of every grade will unite to greet his Imperial MAJESTY with a cordial and hearty welcome." Without going quite so far as our Contemporary in his expression of a hope that the Emperor of RUSSIA will meet with " a cordial and hearty welcome," we will content ourselves with hoping that his reception will be such as is worthy of a free, dignified, and enlightened nation, and that during the whole period of his residence among us, he will be everywhere treated with the respect which is undoubtedly his due. To more than this we do not see that he has the slightest claim ; a grave courtesy and a considerate abstinence from anything that may tend to hurt his feelings whenever he ventures publicly abroad, is the utmost he is entitled to expect at our hands. A hos pitable reception is very different from an enthusiastic one, and most assuredly there is nothing in the public character of the Emperor of Russia—we say nothing of his private one, which is, we believe, exemplary in every respect—calculated to call forth the enthu siasm of Englishmen, or make his arrival the subject of general rejoicing. When his brother ALEXANDER last visited this country, the case was materially different. We had then just brought to a triumphant conclusion the long and sanguinary war against the despotism of France, impersonated by NAPOLEON, and in this war the Russian Essrzaost took a most conspicuous part; he was, in fact, our trustiest and most in• fluential ally, and maintained with equal zeal and perseverance the great struggle for the deliverance of Europe. As a matter of course, his successes were our successes—his defeats were our defeats ; the interests that for the time bound us to gether were essentially the same; we were led to believe, too, that he was a Mo narch exceedingly tolerant and enlightened in his views, and willing, and even anxious, to ameliorate the political and social condition of un happy Poland—in whose fate Englishmen, from the days of KOSCIUSKO, have always taken a deep in terest ; and consequently when he made his appear ance among us, we received him with general enthusiasm, for we felt that he had every claim on the admiration and good will of a brave, indepen dent, and civilised people. But this is certainly not the case in the present instance. The Emperor NICHOLAS is not known to us as a lover of free institutions ; we cannot forget that he was the very last of the European Sovereigns to recog nise the right of France to choose her own ruler in the person of Louts PHILIPPE ; and still less can we, forget—would that we were able to do so ? the ruthless severity with which he put down the late Polish insurrection; the unscrupulous manner in which he destroyed the last remaining vestiges of constitutional liberty yet existing in that ill-starred country; and the vindictiveness of his conduct to wards the bravest and most patriotic Poles, the ma jority of whom are now wearing away their lives, without the faintest hope of release, in the mines and deserts of Siberia. Neither are the EMPEROR'S recent proceedings towards the Jews to be "washed in Lethe and forgotten," whom—for some mysterious reason or other, which no one has yet been able fully to ex plain—he has banished by thousands from the Rus sian dominions. We do not recur to these things, from any wish to excite a popular feeling against the Emperor NICHOLAS; far otherwise, for we do confi dently hope and believe that he will be everywhere treated with that grave, calm courtesy and considera tion, which best become the dignity and self-respect of a great nation like England ; but we mention them because we think it right that our countrymen should be made aware of the exact claims—" neither exte nuated nor set down in malice"—that the Emperor of RUSSIA has upon their admiration and their enthu siasm. According to the accounts from Madrid of the 24th ult., the two Queens and the Infanta were expected to reach Valencia on the 23d, where they would re• main till the 28th, and then proceed to Tarragona. At Barcelona several political prisoners had been set at liberty in honour of the royal isit. The Court were not to arrive in that city till the Ist inst. The Three per Cents. were done at 281 for cash, and 28i at sixty days ; the Five per Cents. at 20i for cash, and 20- at 60 days. Nearly all the Paris papers have articles on the brilliant speech made by 111. TRIERS relative to French interests in South America, from which we have already given extracts. Those of the Opposi tion dwell upon it with admiration, and describe the effect produced by it in the Chamber as almost un precedented. llis severe attacks on M. GUIZOT'S foreign policy has called forth a bitter reply in the Journal des Debats. " It is easy," says the writer, " ith talent, imagination, and a sincerity that is not over scrupulous, to compose an historical ro mance of the vicissitudes which may have been experienced by a few Frenchmen, urged by a spirit of adventure, or the excitement of local passions, to take part in the quarrel of the two republics. It is easy to excite the passions of an audience by an exaggerated picture of those sufferings, and to throw responsibility on the Government• of a country, and disgrace upon its policy. All this is so easy, that it requires but little talent, and in this M. THIERS is not wanting. Consequently his romance had full success on all the Opposition benches. We doubt of its having the same success with men of reflection, who do not content themselves with this cosmopolite sensibility when permanent in terests and invariable principles, which a government ought to maintain, are in question, and which should be defended equally against the importunities of their fellow-countrymen alit the pretensions of foreign Powers. What would be the fate of a government condemned to draw the sword at the command of every passion that chooses to display itself, and wield it from one end of the world to the other ? What would become of the dignity of a nation obliged to make itself the Don Quixote of every private interest which may involve itself in quarrels of Republics or Kings ? Is it not evident that we are called upon to makoalniver sal war against all corners and on every occasion—war agaist all seekers of adventures, and for the profit of every one who may choose to speculate upon the great name of France ? France has made one war upon ROSAS, and imposed a treaty upon him, the terms of which she knows how to compel him to respect. France never avails herself of her strength unjustly against the weak. She makes a point of honour to respect her engagements, even when she can violate them with perfect safety to herself. It is this policy which enables her to march with her fore head open, and hold her head high in the councils of nations. The advice now given to her is the policy of a corsair; but it will fever be the policy of the statesmen who have during four years protected the peace of Europe against the extraordinary prin ciples maintained yesterday by M. THIERS. The speech by which the Minister of Marine replied to the wanderings of M. THIERS secured him a distin guished place among our statesmen. It is impossible for any one to use language more firm, more con vincing, more moderate, more conciliating. The Minister of Foreign Affairs will to-morrow put the finishing stroke to this invention. He has promised to do so, and will keep his word. We, therefore, have no fears for the result. M. TRIERS had long meditated this blow, destined, no doubt, to overturn the Ministry, but which has not even made it shake. He may at his ease calumniate the Government and the country. His attacks may be pleasing to the enemies of France, but this is all he can hope for at present. Power—thanks be to GOD !—is not yet ready to fall into the hands of those who, while they are longing to grasp it, are engaged only in de basing it." The Chamber, as a tribute of repect to the memory of M. LAFFITTE, did not meet on the day of his fune ral, which was attended by nearly all the members, and attracted vast crowds. We ate glad to learn, that, up to the hour of post, every thing passed off quietly. An account of the funeral will be found in another column. On Thursday the Three p.r Cents. had risen to 84f. 80c. The following are extracts from the papers : The National says that M. Laffitte has bequeathed a life interest in his property to his widow. He has left, says this journal, three testamentary executors : Dr. Delaberge, M. Aumont Thieville, the notary, and M. Lebaudy, one of the directors of the Caisse du Commerce et de l'lndustrie. The Quotidienne, alluding to the statement in the German papers, about a projected marriage between the Duke de Bordeaux and a 1\ eapolitan Princess, says :—" This pretended news has not the slightest foundation. No negotiation of marriage has been entered into with the Court of Naples, in the name of the Duke de Bofdeaux. The Count de Montbel, who is represented as anunsuccessful negotiator at Naples, has, since his return from France, been in attendance at the pillow of the august son of Charles X., and it is not of marriage most certainly that the royal family are thinking at present." We learn by a Geneva journal of the 28th that the dis turbance in the Valais is regarded as effectually quelled. The Grand Council has resumed its sittings, and issued a,decree for the immediate dissolution of the armed society of La Jeune Suisse, to which it attributes 'all the recent disasters. The members of this society, who should refuse to obey the in junctions of the Council, are to be regarded as rebels. A letter from Constantinople, May 13, in the Courtier Francais, says :—" Affairs are becoming more and more menacing, the whole province is in revolt, and bands have united together in great bodies, which spread alarm and destruction everywhere. According to the , latest news, the town of Souda was attacked by 15,000 Albanians, and closely blockaded. Ali-Bey was coming with 3,000 men to the suc cour of the town. After a desperate conflict he rode through the ranks of the Albanians, and penetrated into the town. The Turkish soldiers had fought with courage, having left eight hundred men dead on the field. Notwith standing the augmentation of the garrison, the Alba nians continued to invest the town. Hussein-Pacha, who had entered with 5,000 troops into Albania, has lost a considerable number of men. lie was obliged to ratire to Monastir, the principal position of the Turkish army, under the orders of the Seraskier of Kenn - Lelia. Anothez Turkish corps had succeeded in occupying the defiles ~ .)f Keprelu, which prevents all communication between the mountains and the valleys. Aegripalanta, a town in RoAmelia, between Uskup and Gysten, where there was no Turkish garrison, was taken and pillaged by the Albanians, They have, it is said, massacred more than 1,000 Christians. This week a body of infantry, 3,800 strong, has tot out from Constan tinople for Monastic. It is asserted that M. de Titoff has re commended the Porte to arm the Christians, and employ them against the Albanians. THE BOURSE — THURSDAY, MAY 30. First Highest Lowest Last Price. Price. Price.

Because the reasons assigned by the Commons are wholly insufficient. They proceed mainly on a gross and palpable error in law; namely, the assumption that there is in law a difference between Railway Bills and Road Bills, whereas a Railway Bill is to all intents and purposes a Road Bill, unless in so far as some special provision may have been made for Railway Bills in some particulars, and it is not pretended, that the amendment in question came within the scope of any such provisions. 2. Because in so far as it is alleged, that the gates sought to be erected, were not on the railway, but on another road, that road was most materially affected by the railway, its traffic being very greatly diminished, and the road becoming more like an occupation or private road than a turnpike road, and the gat : ; , ,s were only to be erected after the comple tion of the railway. 71;;;;es;,1;;;c far as want of notice is alleged, the like leave to erect gates has been given in former instances, by private Acts of Parliament, without any such notice. 4. Because the projectors of the present Bill had agreed to have such a clause inserted, as a condition of the intended opposition being withdrawn ; and had represented that they had stated the clause to many—it was said fourteen persons —several of wheel were turnpike trustees of the old road in question. 5. Because whether the Commons were right or wrong, such clause having been made a condition made to the withdrawing opposition, the refusal to agree to the amend ment ought to have been regarded by this House as a ter mination of the contract, whatever might be the cause of such refusal and the party who had made the contract in favour of the Bill, on the condition of the clause passing, mould have been let in to oppose the Bill ; or, if that could no longer be done in this stage, the Bill ought not to have been passed without his consent, which should have been obtained on some other equivalent condition. 6. Because it is of the utmost importance to prevent frauds, and to protect individuals from the most grievous oppression, that the most perfect good faith be always kept between pro jectors of works, applying for private Acts of Parliament, to arm them with extraordinary powers, and private parties with whom they bargain respecting their assent or opposi tion to such Bills. 7. Because the projectors of this work undertook to have the clause passed, and this was part of their bargain with the private party, and if they had had fairly applied to the road trustees, and given them due notice, no deception could have e ßecause been practised, and no objection could have bee n ta ken , either by the trustee: or the Coinmone: , 8 v hithe Lords, when the pre sent motion was made, was a delay which could not possibly have prevented ail lththea.BtlNlNl'afsrof:e' l passing by the space of abov e one day ; and the delay was asked on the express ground, that material evidence was ready to be produced which must have affected the question, whether the Commons' amend ments should be agreed to or not. 0. Because the Bill was thus, in an unprecedented manner, hurried through, in the face of a notice given in the House that a Select Committee would immediately be moved for, to consider what had been the conduct of the promoters of the Bill, grave allegations being made that the opposition had been originated either by them, or in consequence of their proceedings, in entire breach of their contract with the private party. 10. Because this House has never, even in its legislative capacity, decided without hearing, unless where the matter in question was really a cover for some party proceeding, and was not the true subject of deliberation . But in its j udicia l , a quasi judicial capacity, and when dealing with rights of property and claims of parties interested, it has never, save ill this instance, decided without hearing those parties. BROWIIA3I, THIS DAY'S NEWS. VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Sir J. WIGRA3I.) • The Court was occupied, during the morning, with the hearing of short causes and unopposed petitions. When the latter had been gone through. the Court proceeded with the part-heard cause of Benson v. Hadfield,, which was .the first cause set down on the paper. (Before Sir J. K. L BRUCE.) Several cases were disposed of in the course of the morn ing, bat none of them involved any feature of public interest. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.) THE QUEEN V. THE, CORPORATION OF WEYMOUTH. Mr. KINGLAKE applied to the Court to quash the return made by the mayor and burgesses of Weymouth to the writ of mandamus in this case. The mandamus was directed to the mayor and burgesses to elect two revising assessors. By the Act of the sth and 6th of 'William IV., c. 76, sec. 18, the mayor and assessors for the time being were to revise the burgess .list; but, to get rid of the inconvenience that arose from the words "for the time being," a subsequent statute directed that the revising assesors should beelected on the Ist of March every year,in the same manner as the auditors of the borough, but if no assessors were elected, the old burgess-list was to continue in force. No assessors had been elected on the Ist of March, and therefore on the 9th of November, when the list was to be revised, it was found there were no assessors to revise it. The mandamus issued to compel them, and the return they made, was, that there was no assessor, which was not a proper return ' • because, if there was no as sessor, it was competent to the Mayor to hold a meeting and elect them, under the 11th of Geo. I. Another objection against the return was, that it was vague and uncertain. Mr. WIGHTMAN—By the late Act it was necessary that you should proceed by demurrer. Application refused. QUEEN-SQUARE.-(TIIIS DAY.) Mrs. Mary Ford, a fair specimen of an Irish washerwoman, was charged with riotous and irregular conduct at a most unseasonable hour this morning, in College-walk, Chelsea. A policeman found her in the society of two of her sisterhood, all of whom were apparently endeavouring to have the best of an argument on some matter of domestic import. The disturbance which they thus created in the almost deserted street, disturbed the inhabitants from their repose, the most 'nervous of whom threw up their windows and inquired the reason thereof. With much difficulty, the defendant's com panions were induced to "make the best of their way home," but Mrs. Ford would not move for any man on " airth," and stood her ground until forcibly removed by four policemen, who - had exhausted all their persuasive powers in their en deavours to get her to go quietly home. No, she was ob durate, and the mere the police persuaded, the more did Mrs. Ford's wrath increase • round oaths issued from her lips, and the police, in self defence, took Mrs. Ford to the station house, in the way to which she poured forth the very lava of her wrath unsparingly upon . them. She was ordered to obtain a person who would give some security to the Magistrate that Mrs. Ford should not create such a disturbance. again in the public streets, for some time to come at least. UNION HALL. - (THIS_ DAY.) Mr. Sidney Foster, of the Surrey Zoological Gardens, attended to request the Magistrate's advice under the follow ing circumstances. The applicant stated that he applied on the behalf of the individual who furnishes the fire-worksto the Zoological Gardens, and who for that purpose had recently purchased an acre of ground in the vicinity of the gardens for the pur pose of carryin ,, on his business. Within the last few weeks a person has lately erected a shed close to the spot where the fire-work business is going on, and this shed he has converted into a kind of factory in which he is carrying on a most dangerous trade, that of varnish making. A few nights ago, owing to the negligence of the man in charge of the shed, a Iv occurred these, and nearly consumed it, and had not t!:e, wind been in the east, there was every reason to believe that the flames might have extended to the place whue the fireworks were, and that an explosion of the IDC3t serious nature would have been the result. The olject of the present application was to ascertain if the person against whom the complaint was made could be restrained from carrying on his trade so close to the fire work manufactory. Mr. COTTINGIIAM said, that ii the fire was caused by the negligence of the parties carrying on the varnish-manufac tory the applicant had better serve him with a notice, and if after that any accident should occur, he would be civilly as well as criminally liable for the damage sustained. The applicant, having thanked the Magistrate, withdrew. MARKET NEWS.-(SAT LIRDAY.) COVMNT-GAR.DEN.

THAMES ROYAL YACHT CLUB, GRAND CHALLENGE Cur.—The announced great race for the 10th of July, is at present the leading feature in the aquatic circles. Subjoined arc the winners since the first institution of this great contest with the entries for the forth coming race :- 1840. The Gazelle. 1842. The Ada. 1841. The Champion. 1843. The Enigma. EmcriuEs.—Mvstery, 25 tons, Lord Alfred Paget, blue, red Maltese croas ; hxquisite, 15 tons, T. R. Tatham, Esq., white, blue cross, gold star ; Gazelle, 25 tons, T. Rutherford, Esq., white, with red arrow ; Enigma, 25 tons, Josiah Wilkinson, Esq., crimson, gold Maltese cross ; Blue Belle, 25 tons, John Chandless,' Esq., blue ; Gnome, 25 tons, Thomas Meesome, Esq., blue and white, with star. The Challenge Cup is a floating prize, open to twenty five ton yachts of any Royal Yacht club, and must be won two following seasons by the same yacht before it becomes the property of the owner. It was, however, determined at the last Thames Yacht meeting, that a prize, value twenty five guineas, should be presented to the holder of the one year, who should be unsuccessful on the second. Such a list of powerful competitors we have never before remembered, and the equality of the tonnage, with the exception of the Exquisite, renders it difficult for the most observant yachter to determine which to back. CALEDONIAN ASYLUM..—Yesterday the friends of the Caledonian Asylum (the Hon. Sir George Rose in the chair) presented the Rev. John Lees, M.A., with a purse of a hundred sovereigns, and a piece of plate, value one hundred guineas, bearing the following in scription :—" Presented to the Rev. John Lees, M.A., in pursuance of a resolution unanimously passed by a public meeting of the guardians and friends of the Cale donian Asylum, held at the Freemason's Tavern, Lon don, on the 14th of April, 1844, as a lasting testimonial of their respect for his character, and of their gratitude for the paternal and unremitting kindness and zeal with which, for a period of twenty-one years, he discharged the duties of Superintendent and Secretary of that In stitution." Among the subscribers to this well-merited testimonial were his Royal Highness the Duke of Cam bridge, Sir Augustus Frederick 'D'Este, his Grace the Duke of Sutherland, his Grace the Duke of .Riehnsond, the Duke of Roxburgh, the Marquis of Bute, the Mar quis of Breadalb ane , Lord James Stuart, M.P. ; Lochiel ; Chisholm ; Sir Charles Forbes, Bart. ; P. M. Stewart, Esq., M.Y. ; Colo:lel Hugh Baillie, M.P., James Ma theson, Lsu., of Achany, FIRE.—Th:, morning, shortly after twelve o'clock, some alarm was created in the immediate vicinity of the Surrey Zoological Gardens, in consequence of a fire breaking out in the boiling-House belonging to Mr. Lyons, floor-cloth manufacturer, situate in Lovemore• gardens, Newington. Fortunately the building was detached, or it is impossible to tell to what extent the conflagration would have travelled. By half-past one o'clock, owing to the exhaustion of all com bustible material, the fire was entirely extinguished, not however until the boiling-house, with its contents, was con sumed. The origin of the outbreak could not be ascertained ; the fire under the boiler had been raked out some time be fore the flames were discovered. Unfortunately Mr. Lyons is not insured, and the present is the second fire that has occurred upon his promises in the course of a few weeks. PARISH OF ST. MARY, NEWINGTON.—CHURCH RATES.—Yesterday afternoon, a most numerous meeting of the inhabitants of this parish was held in the vestry-room, and, by adjournment, in the school-rooms adjoining the church. According to the statements of several of the parishioners, the meeting was the largest held in the dis trict since the passing of the Reform Bill. The meeting was convened by the churehwardens, on account of a re quisition that had been presented to them by upwards of 500 of the inhabitantr, stating that it was intended to take a vote to pay the sum of 60/. per annum as salary for the Rev. Mr. Ainslie, who had been appointed chaplain to the workhouse. The question was considered at a pre vious meeting, when the payment was refused, it being alleged by several of the rate-payers that Mr. Ainslie was not entitled to auy further remuneration, he being then in the receipt of 5501. per annum as incumbent of St. Peter's, Walworth. Several eminent dissenting clergymen after wards offered to perform the services gratuitously, but their offers were rejected by the board. After some discussion con nected with the holding of the meeting, Mr. Brown, the churchwarden, took the chair; and read the requisition amidst much uproar. Mr. Shaw then proposed a rate of one half penny in the pound, amidst the most tremendous uproar. The resolution was seconded. A most disgraceful scene next ensued, during which several chairs and other articles were broken in pieces. An amendment was passed to the effect that the question should be considered by a committee, in order that the sum might be raised by both parties, without it being demanded as a rate. The amendment was carried, but the parish will be polled on the subject. There were about 1,200 persons present. For solve time past a series of reports have been circulated'respecting certain changes that have recently taken place in the Royal Household, and - in anticipation of further alterations which it is alleged are about to take place. It has been studiously represented that the persons dismissed from the Royal Household have been discharged without suffi cient reason, that the saving produced by their removal is to be applied unfairly to purposes unconnected with the Royal Household, and that the pensions to which these discharged servants are entitled are not only of lower amount than they ought to be, but that they are to be derived from a fund which will increase the burdens of the people. These reports have been circulated with so much industry and:ap parent candour, that we regret to say we were in one instance deceived by them. We have since ascertained that they are all, without exception, destitute of any foundation. Amongst the number of attendants that it has been fo and necessary to place upon the retired list, there are some whose conduct, so far from entitling them to complain of the amount of pen sion awarded to them, has not entitled them to any retiring allowance. There are others still retained :In the Royal ser vice whose conduct has not been satisfactory', and from those sources may be traced those misrepresentations - which have been forced into public notice.— Times.
