Next on two very old frames—from their colour we were almost in doubt whether they were gilded or not. The Detergent soon convinced ui of the fact, by removing the accumulated stains and tarnish of many years ; 'these frames have now the appearance of being nearly new."—Liverpool Chronicle, Jan. 27, 1844. "We have tried the Gold Detergent upon several old picture frames, and must confess we were very agreeably surprised at the result for it restores the splendour of gilding with very little trouble.

The evidence produced irt F vt l :w t o c asf he tth r h , ee a r n esy d sstt C aete o md , a s htboypwr present e t i h ns s e t Ann Slack, that until this forgery was brought to light, she never knew of her being entitled to the 3,500/. in question, and was receiving the dividends on other stock at the Bank of England, without the least intimation being given to her of her right to this other money, been for this circumstance, would, in all probability, have gone to the grave quite ignorant on this point, Now, Miss Ann Slack,had it not although it was known that she was the legal claimant. For aught we know, there are at this time many poor creatures, in a state of actual starvation, en titled to thousands of this unclaimed property; and who, for want of the required information, are doomed to end their miserable existence in some ob scure garret, or (the last resource of the wretched) a workhouse: Most persons of property are tena cious, while living, of disclosing their wealth ; they often neglect to make a will until the last mo ment, and then, in so imperfect a manner, that a correct; detail of the property is never got at. The survivor finds his ' relative possessed money- in some particular stock, and goes to the Bank to claim it accordingly, but should there be more money invested by the same party in other portions of the fund:, he gets no information about it, and very often loses it altogether. Again, the secresy observed by the Bank on these matters is not the least security against frauds, as was shown ,on the late occasion, where a person hold ing a responsible situation in that establishment, fur nished the delinquents with the necessary information injustice, adopted the T Oy trialf THEtiofe knot which enabled them ultimately to complete th e i r ne farious designs, so that this mails rank in life was no proof of his being above temptation. Had a list of these dividends been published, the right owner would probably have appeared long ago, and these forgeries not have happened. I differ entirely with you where you propose that after certain publicity, and a lapse of time stated, they should revert to Government altogether. The Government might have the use of them after the adoption of the above proposals ; but they might (at all events for a long term of years) to be open to claimants ; and if an office (similar to that of Doctors' Commons) were established for the registry of " Un c!aimed Stock and Dividends," where, upon payment of a small fee, every person had the facility of exa- : mining the books, the Government would be spared the, odium of being charged with suppressing that necessary information which the public are justly en titled to, and much general dissatisfaction allayed.

SMUGGLING TOBACCO.—On Wednesday a case came betbre the county Magistrates at Rochester, in which all the evidence leading to the conviction of the defendant arose from his own Confession to:the respective witnesses. The party charged with the offence was - Mr. Toplis, tobac conist, of Bermoudsey-street, Southwark, and the transaction took place on the Bth of March last, being the conveyance of seventy-three pounds of contraband leaf tobacco from Chat ham to London, by Wrake's waggon; three other parties .have been . already convicted for the parts they took in the same transaction, and in this case the defendant was con victed in a penalty of 1001. Mr. Potbury appeared for the Customs; Mr. Butler for the defence; the latter intimated that. the fmemould not be paid, and therefore the defendant Vas committed to the House of Correction - at Maid,tone, With.hard labour, for six months, the Magistrates having no power to mitigate, as a former conviction was proved against him. ' • TIHE GRAND CALEDONIAN BALL.—ThiS annual fancy dress ball is fixed for Tuesday, the 28th instant. The Lord Chamberlain yesterday . communicated her Atejesty's pleasure of again extending her gracious patronage to the ball. We hear that thirty lady patronesses had under taken the direction. In consequence of the immense de mand always made for vouchers, we believe they are to be issued to-morrow. . The Hon. Mr. Commissioner Spring Rice, and the Hon. Captain Percy, Commissioner: of Excise, have gone to Kilkenny, county Donegal, on official business connected withtheir respective departments. . --e [AND. - - THE SPY SYSTEM. D mix, MAY 8.--Mr. Martley, Q.C,., who prtsided t► the. investigation at Shinrone, has presented his report to the Government, detailing the horrible system of getting up Ribbon prosecutions in that part of the King's County, in which policemen were implicated. It is said that the Go vernment have determined upon the dismissal of three of the police —one of them a person of superior station in the force —and also upon the removal to another station of a civil officer holding an appointment in the district. The provincial papers, received this morning, contain further revelations respecting this atrocious spy system. The Tipperary Vindicator states that a policeman has been. detected in circulating a vile publication, entitled, " The Swaddler defeated," the object of which was to inflame the Roman Catholic populatica. An inquiry was in progress by the local authorities. The Limerick Reporter of yesterday contains the . fol lowing:— " MORE PADDY M'KEwram.—Two ruffians of this descrip tion, who trade upon the lives and liberties of the incautious and unwary -have been prowling the country und er th e cha racter of tinkers, with an ass and car, and two children in it ; and, strange to say, that although in every other respect under the character of, and representing themselves as, tinkers, they had no budget or tools belonging to the trade. Having arrived in the district of O'Brien's-bridge, on Satur day last, instead of inquiring if there were any pots, bellows, or kettles to mend,' their whole inquiries were about the state of the country and the feelings of the people. The Repealers of the district, suspecting their character to be assumed, im mediately informed the police, who apprehended them. Tho police, finding - thew could not give a satisfactory account of themselves, searched the car and their persons, when they found with them two blunderbusses, two cases of pistols, a mould for making balls, as also the materials and mode of making powder. This unique pair of tinkers were accord ingly marched off by the police to Killaloe, and having un • dergone an examination before Captain Martin, J.P., were fully committed to the county gaol at Ennis. There can be no doubt but that the ruffians intended, first to seduce some unwary persons, then to supply them with powder and ball, and afterwards inform against them." Mr. O'Connell, accompanied by his son, Mr. John O'Con nell, M.P., leaves town this day or to-morrow for London, to attend the discussion on the Irish Municipal Bill. The 7'ipperary Vindicator states that six families were last week evicted for non-title, from Kildangan, in that county, the property of Lord Norbury. Three of the families were subsequently allowed to re-enter their holdings. ~~ ~~ SUMMARY OF NEWS AND Oltr Optitton. " TVlio runs may read." roa,Exarx. On his way to Fontainbleau, Louis' Philippe alighted at Villejuif, and reviewed the National Guard, attended by the Dukes de Nemours and Montpensier. Ills Majesty was greeted along the whole_,of his way with the loudest acclama tions of loyalty. The Presse announces, that the Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, to which the Paris and Belgium Railroad Bill had been referred for examination, determined, on Tuesday, that this line should be completed at the public expense, and managed by the State for its own account. Every year (says the Constitutionnel) on the day of the King's fete, the Minister of Justice and Public Worship gives a grand dinner, at which the Archbishop of Paris is usually present. This year the Archbishop did not attend. The Ami de la Religion, one of the organs of the clergy, on the other hand, states that the Archbishop of Paris has al ready received sixty adhesions - - to the reply which be ad dressed to the Minister of Justice and Public 'Worship on the 13th of March laSt, relative to the irreligious doctrines taught by the University. Paris has seldom had so great an influx - of visitors at this season of the year as during the last few days. An Angers journal states that 3,000 passports have been granted for Paris in that town within a month, and 6,000 in the same time at Nantes. The number of anivals from England has also been much greater than it was at this time last year. It is stated in one of the journals that 27,400 persons were conveyed to and from Versailles by the right-bank railway on Sunday last, and that the receipts amounted to 42,865 f. According to a letter from Oran of the 22d ult., there was a current report that General Lamoriciere had left Tlemcen at the head of a corps concentrated at that point, and marched towards' Sebdou. : It was also, said that eight Con.- louglis and an European, who had left Tlemcen to establish themselves at Sebdou, had fallen into the hands of Abd-el- Kader and his band, and that with the exception of one, who succeeded in making his escape, all had their heads cut off... We learn from Chamounix; iii Savoy, that although the snow during the winter fell in great abundance, in that valley, it has alreadyenti:ely disappeared ; and that, on the 26th ult., several English tourists succeeded in ascending the Montanvert, which is seldom accessible at such an early period. The Journal de Villefranches states that the wine-growers of the Beaujolais have no hope of a.good vintage this year. The old vines have been frozen at the root, and cannot pro duce. The young vines look well., but the quantity of fruit from them will be comparatively small.. The Frankfort Journal mentions that serious riots have taken place at Munich, in consequence of a rise in the price of beer. A great.number of workpeople and soldiers assembled for the purpose of attacking the breweries, but they were dis persed by the authorities, and several of the rioters have been arrested. • LAW AND POLICE. The jury on the trial of the man Crouch for the murder of his wife, after being locked up without food till a late hour, returned a verdict of guilty, and Baron Alderson, passed sen tence of death on the prisdner. William Henry Gower, 42, a person genteelly dressed, and who was stated to be an attorney, was indicted at the Old Bailey for feloniously uttering a forged certificate of mar riage, alleged to have been solemnised between himself and one Amelia Drayson. The prosecutrix had agreed to live with the prisoner as his wife, and the copy of the register had been prepared to show, in order to produce a belief that she was married to him. They had become acquainted in con sequence of the prisoner being employed by her to copy ma- - nuscript for the press. The jury returned a verdict of guilt, and he was sentenced to two years' imprisonment, but in consequence of the circumstances of the case, a representa tion in his favour will be made to the Secretary of State. Mr. Wilkins applied to postpone the trial of William Bur ton Newenham, charged with the abduction of Miss Wortham, until next sessions. No opposition being made to the motion, the Learned Judge ordered the trial to stand over until next sessions. . ' At the Excise Court, John Sykes, tobacco manufacturer, of Red Cross-street, Barbican, was charged on various infor mations with having in his possession articles for the purpose of adulterating tobacco—namely, sugar, molasses, logwood, nutgalls, and copperas, by which he had incurred penalties to the amount of 8001. He was convicted on one informa tion, and fined 251. ' Henry Dawkins, a warehouseman, in the service of Mr. Swainson, a worsted and fringe • manufacturer- in Wood street, was charged at the Guildhall with stealing a large quantity of goods from the premises of his employer, and George Buxton, of Eden-place, Hoxton, fringe and line manufacturer, was charged with receiving a portion of the stolen goods. They were both remanded. A well-dressed man; named Thomas Franks, was charged with having written and sent to the Rev. Clement Strong, Oxford-terrace, 'Bayswater, a letter, - couched in such violent and threatening language, as to cause him .(corn plainant) to consider-his life in danger. He was held to bail. Margaret Morgan, a young, handsome, and very fashion ably-dressed Frenchwoman, was charged at Marlborough street with robbing - Mr. Thomas Graham, of No. 7, Trevor square, Knightsbridge, and a member of the Stock Exchange, of ten shillings in silver. She was committed for trial. John O'Connor, a boy thirteen years of age, was charged pt Queen-square with a gross imposition on Mr. Spottis woode, of No. 16, Great George-street, Westminster, by ob taining money, under the representation that his mother, whom the complainant had frequently relieved, had been knocked down by a cab and had her leg broken. One of the officers of the Mendwity Society stated that he had known the mother for some years as a begging-letter writer. She had met with no accident. He was sent to hard labour for three months in the House of Correction. - COURT—FASHIONABLE. Last evening the Marquis- and Marchioness of Ailesbnry entertained at dinner the _French Ambassador and the Countess de St. Aulaire, Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch, Baron Nieumann, Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry, Marquis of Normanby, Marquis of Granby, Earl of Pem broke, Earl and Countess of Clanwilliam, Viscount and Vis countess Sydney, Viscount and Viscountess Jocelyn, &e.

The Duke of Devonshire has arrived at Devonshire House, from Kemp Town, Brighton. The Marchioness of Hastings and her youthful family are expected toleave Farrance's Hotel, Belgrave-street, early in the ensuing week, for . Donnington Castle. At Almack's on Wednesday night, as was expected, there was rather a• full meeting, amounting to at least four hundred. The Marchioness of Londonderry, the Countess of Jersey, and Viscountess Pabfierston, were prevented by other en gagements from presiding over the -honours of the assembly. The Polka was danced no less than four times. We cannot find room for the full list of company. DTI S C ELLAN MOUS. , • The Anniversary Festival Of the " Sons of the Clergy," was commemorated yesterday afternoon, in St. Paul's Cathedral: Amongst the More distinguished portion of those assembled were the Puke of Cambridge, the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Archbishop of Armagh, he Bishop of London, the Lord Mayor, Mr. She r iff M oon , M r .

The day appointed is Friday, the 3lstinst., for the dinner, so that a' strong muster is expected from the lengthened notice -given. A number of distinguished guests have been invited. - " A return to an order of the Hon. the House of Commons, dated the 2d of April, 1844, for an account of the quantity of beer exported, from th 4 sth day of January, 1843, to the sth day of Jamlary, 1844, gives 146,621 as the number of barrels of beer on which drawback was paid. The 49th annual meeting of the London Missionary Se ciety took place on Thursday , at Exeter Hall. With the ex ception of the Sunday School Union, this was by far the most numerously-attended meeting cif the season. The chair was occupied by , ' Mr. W. Evans, M.P. The total receipts for the year amounted to 81.812/., the expenditure to 83,523/., show ing an excess of - disbursements over income of 4,6251. THE lIAIR.—Of the numerous compounds con stantly announced for promoting the growth or reproduc tion of the hair, few survive, even in name, beyond a very limited period; Whilst*" Rowland's MaCtissar Oil,"' with a reputation unparalleled, is still on the ificreaSa in*public es timation. The singular virtues of this successful invention • for restoring, preserving, and beautifying the human are too well known and appreciated to need much comment. The very facts of the high and distinguished patronage it enjoys, its general use iu all countries, together with nu merous testimonials constantly received in its favour, are au thorities which stamp its superior excellence and title over all attempts of a similar nature. Being universally preferred, its consequent great demand excites the cupidity of un principled shopkeepers, who vend the most spurious trash as the "genuine" Macassar Oil : whereas the genuine article is wholly the invention and property of A. Rowland and Son, and the amalgamation of its costly exotic materials renders abortiveany attempt to discover its component parts—thns proving the imposition of all other articles bearing the title of " Macassar Oil." The genuine article has the words " Rowland's .Macassar Oil" on the wrapper.—All others are fraudulent counterfeits! ••• EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE IN PARIS.—A ball took place on Friday night at all the barracks of the Mu nicipal Guard on the occasion of the King's fete. An extraordinary and melancholy - event occurred at the barracks or the rue Notre Dame des Victoires. At about five in the morning, when the animation was at its highest point, one of the men, who had been danc ing for a long time, said to a comrade, " The ball . lasts too long—l will put an end to it. He immedi a t e l y l eft the dancing room, and a few minutes afterwards an ex plosion being heard, several of the municipal giintarthties rushed out and found their comrade lying dead yard, he having blown out his brains with a pistol. Tho act is attributable to disappointed love.—Galignani ECLIPESA total eclipse of the moon- will. . take place on the last day of the present month, Friday, the 31st instant.

DRESDEN,- -APRIL 29.—Queen Victoria will not come to Germany this' summer, but the King of Saxony will go to England on the 29th of May, to pay a visit to the English Court. • His -Majesty will also visit Scotland. The whole journey is to be actomplished in six weeks. BERLIN, APRIL 29.—We hear that a Cabinet order has been issued by the King, directing that the draft of the penal code shall be again laid before the Provincial Assem blies. It is affirmed that it declares that corporeal punish ment shall be - abolished. With respect to the Rhenish Pro vince, Commissioners are to be appointed, who are to give opinion on the compatibility of the draft of the penal code withthe trial by jury. BERLIN, Aries, 30.—Senor Oliveira, attached to the Por tuguese Legation at Berlin, is daily expected here with the ratification of the treaty of navigation concluded some weeks ago between Prussia and Portugal. Baron Kendutre, the Portuguese Ambassador, is, if not engaged in negotiation yet, on the point of opening them for a commercial treaty with the Customs' Union. PETERSBURGII, APRIL 27.—1 t was not till the night before last that the Neva at this city was freed from its icy covering, though it was cleared a week ago at its issue from Lake Ladoga and further down. The breaking up of the ice here took us quite by surprise, so that no preparations were made for taking up the greet floatingl . bridge between Wass!ly Ostrow and this c ity. The bridge was therefore carried down the river by the pressure of the ice to the island Kutusoff. The communication between the city and the islands is at. this moment interrupted by the ice coming down from Lake Ladoga. The breaking up of the ice in the q_sieva always has an unfavourable influence on the temperature. On this occa sion it is accompanied with cold, disagreeable weather and a fall of snow. STOCKHOLM, APRIL 30.—The funeral of the late King took place on the 26th with great pomp ; the weather being extremely fine, the streets were crowded with pooplei from an early hour to see the procession pass, and all the windows and roofs of the houses were filled with company. The manufacturers of the town of Norrkoping have re solved to erect an equestrian statue in honour of the litte King. AboVe 20,000 dollars were subscribed in the first few days. ' _ - Vis reported in Stockholm that the King, to save ex penses, doees not intend to be crowned in either of the two. kingdoms, since three other European Sovereigns, the Kings of trance, Prussia, and Belgium, have not been crowned. BRUSSELS, MAY 7.—The average price of Wheat last week was 171. 32c., and that of Rye 101. 61c. The duties of cus• toms remain unchanged. The Chamber of Representatives continued to-day the de bate on the opinion of the Committee of Commercial Inquiry. Only four Members spoke—Messrs. Verhaegen and Hoff schmidt advocated the system of differential duties, which was warmly opposed by Messrs. Vandensteen and Delfosse.. To-morrow the debate will be opened by M.

The gentlemen of the Royal Academy Boat Club yesterday opened their season with a very spirited four-oared cutter race, the crews, as usual, being drawn by lot. The match had been originally fixed for Tuesday, but as the tide would not serve after four in the afternoon, and as that early hour was inconvenient to boaters in general, it was postponed until yesterdity, when the gentlemen met at their rooms, at the Messrs. Searle'S, and their names having been drawn, look their seats in the following order : Yellow-1. Dearmer. 2. Emery. 3. H. M. Cooper. 4. Atkinson. Cameron, steerer. Green-1. Rainback. 2. C. Carpenter. 3. D. Cooper. 4. Harpole. C.D. Smith, steerer. Blue-1. Howard. 2. Moorhead. 3. Knox. 4. Revel. C. Smith, steerer. At a quarter past ten they took their stations at Westmin ster-bridge to race to Putney, blue being on the Middlesex side, green on the Surrey, and yellow in the middle. On the signal being given, blue. took the lead, followed by yellow, green being close up. A very Splendid pull followed between yellow and blue, who drew a length or more in advance of the third boat, which ultimately ended in yellow taking tit ' • lead off the. Penitentiary, and showing the party the nearesC route to Putnev-green ; then came op to blue, and challenged them to a fresh struggle, and after a very lengthened sport, on their arrival at Vauxhall-bridge, grien overhauled their opponents and went into the second place. Yellow had by this time drawn so far ahead as to make their victory, barring accident, certain, and they continued to !cad well th© entire way, and won by nearly twenty lengths; green was second, and blue close behind them. The Guys, the Aca demy eight, the St. George's, and a good sprinkle of lesser. boats were out. MORE DISCONTENT.—The Collectors of taxes are now making (fer just cause) additional complaint respecting their per centage. The Government officers have orders not to allow them per centage below 18s. ; thus, if a collector pays 10/. 18s., nothing is allowed upon the shillings. Now, col lectors have very often more trouble in collecting 18,s. than 18/. ; for instance, two dogs at Bs. 9d. each of two labourers, and those trivial sums, have to be collected (just the same as large amounts) at two half years. But, mark, the Go vernment charge duty down to 10d.! Well may public dis content gradually increase, and even, as it does, amongst the Peel party. THE NATIONAL TESTIMONIAL.—The just tribtite duo to Mr. Rowland Bill seems to progress favourably throughout the country, and will do more so when the plane of committees get into working. Poor people appear anxious 'to give their penny each, and other individuals according Jo their relative situations in life. FANCY FAlR.—Yesterday a sale of useful and ornamental work took place at Willis's Rooms, in aid of the objects of the Church Missionary Society in China, the Lon don-Society for Promoting Christianity amongst the Jews in Jerusalem, and the Protestant Association in England. A large number of ladies had stalls, and the articles exposed for sale were rapidly disposed of to great advantage. DEATH or LADY LECALE.—By the demise of this lady the Leinster family are placed in mourning. Her Ladyship died at her seat- in Devon, on Monday last, in her 66th year. In 1808, her Ladyship married Lo;d. Charles Fitzgerald, third son of James, Ist Duke of Leinster, created in the following year Baron Lecale, a title which he only enjoyed for a year, after his creation, for he died in /810. The late Lady Lecale was widow of Mr. T. Carton, previous to marrying Lord Charles Fitzgerald. ROBBERY OF A PUBLICAN.—On Tuesday the now► old scheme of plundering was successfully applied at the house of Mr. Woodrough, the Peacock, Newington-butts. Two well-dressed persons having entered the house and call ing for refreshment, particularly requested to be furnished with pen, ink, and paper, and, as they had business of conse quence to transact, a private room.

There were no less than from ten to fifteen thousand female ser vants annually out of employment in this metropolis, and when they considered the temptations and impositions to which they were subject, the establishment of institutions which not only afforded them religious instruction, but all the comforts of a well-cojiducted home, was of the greatest pos sible advantage.—(Hear, hear.) The Rev. Mr. Rowe, the secretary, read the report, which set forth that prudential motives liad dictated to the Committee the propriety of not extending the operations of the Society until the present year; and an additional home to the one in Nutford-place, Edgware-road, had recently been established in llatton garden, inconsequence of the means of the Society, through recent bequests and donations, having been sufficient to liqui date the debt existing during the previous year. During the past year, up to the 25th of March last, there had been 238 admissions to the home at Nutford-place, and the sum re ceived from servants was 441. 13s. The total number admit ted since the formation of the Society was 1,623. The re - ceipts for the past year, including subscriptions, was 200/., and there was now a balance in the hands of the treasurer of b Society, g s ti e 100/. The Rev.

Some passers-by, who saw the danger of the child, helloed to the driver, who instantly stopped the.horses; but not before the near horse had knocked her doem, and the fore wheel passed over both legs, besides grazing her shoulder in a most frightful manner. She was picked up, and about to be taken to the hospital, when -the driver, jumping off the box, discovered her to be his own child. He immediately took her home, where she near lies in a most precaiions state, without the slightest hopes ct recovery. / / . ~~ / 1 lend' , catife 0 ,501 1 1 icitg* )11, C E I
