EYEBROWS MUSTACHIOS, and WHISKERS produced in a few weeks, and Baldness removed and prevented, by the ass of G RIMS T ONE'S AROMATIC REGENERATOR. If you are in want of that beautiful adornment of the human figure, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or of any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer. an 11 a. bottle of Grimstone's Aromatic Regenerator. This is an essential spirit, drawn frxn aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Her bary, Highgate), which has been long known to the nobility and gentry, by whom it is highly appreciated for its manifold virtues, too numerous to be set forth in an advertisement, but may be read in his pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed. Each pamphlet has the signature of William Grimstene, Merchant, fierbary, Illghrate, and will be found at page 11, under the copy of Mrs. Weekly's Letter to the Editor of the " Times" newspaper, 7th of August, 1846. This pamphlet is forwarded through the post, on receiving two postage stamps. The Aromatic Regenerator can be forwarded through the post on receiving a post-office order for 4s. 6d., 7s. Bd., or 125., which in cludes the postage with the case. The Ils. size contains four of the 4s. A few of its many virtues, as thousands can prove, are published la the pamphlet enclosed with each bottle. Reader, reflect for a few minutes, and if yea are 40 years of age you will remember the thousands of blind you meet with in your walks, others with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was the demand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re moved those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward, clear-sighted people (the climate is the same) ? I'll tell you the caase —the universal use of Grimstone's Eye Snuff 1 and because it cured Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, Oatardet, Nervous Headach, and Deaf ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67 cases of cure being proved by the informers, still it was an act of oppression; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq., altered the label, and sanctioned its sale under order of the Lords of the Treasury; the letter of protection, signed by Berries, Esq., to Mr. William Grimstone, bearing date 18th February, 1525. This was on account of its curative qualities, being sold at that time is canis ters, within the reach of every poor family. But under this order of Government it is obliged to be stamped.

In a day or two will be published the report of the Select Committee appointed to inquire into the beat means of accelerating and improving the postal commu nication between London and Paris. We will venture to anticipate the report of that Committee upon the strength of knowing the names of its members. Where we find such persons as Mr. M-Gregor, bir. Moffatt, Sir James Duke, Mr. William Brown, Mr. Mackinnon, Mr. Henry Baring, &c., called together to consult upon a very simple question of business arrangement that any two men of business of the average amount of brains might dispose of in a morning's consultation, we will not do them the injustice to suppose that they will arrive at any other conclusion than the one which the country has a right to expect at their hands. As to the general tenour of their report we trust there is no doubt that it will declare the route by Boulogno that which must henceforward be preferred. Whether or no the starting point from the English coast shall be Dover or Folke stone is a question upon which a certain hesitation may well exist until it has been accurately inquired into. On the one hand, Folkestone is, geographically, better situated; on the other, Dover is the better harbour. Folkestone harbour is, however, suscep tible of great improvement, and probably, if there should be a contract formed with the South-Eastern Steam-packet Company for the water transit, it would be found more convenient to them to take Folkestone as the starting point. Other considerations there era, we believe, such as the heavy port dues exacted at Dover, which no doubt the Committee will take into account be fore arriving at a final decision. We look to the report to clear up our hesitations on this point, and upon the further one of whether it would be the more economical and the more effective coutse for the public service to come to an arrangement with the South-Eastern Steam. packet Company far the water transit, or to prefer the official carriage afforded by the Admiralty; with the dvantage of recent experience on other lines, we can have little doubt that the system of private contract an swers best; but when we have the facts and figures be fere us, with which no doubt the Committee is prepared upon these two moot points, we shall be in a condition to express an opinion upon the matter more satisfactory t> our own feelings, and more beneficial to the public service. We do not, however, believe that the anticipated blue hook will contain a single fresh fact or figure of any im• portance for the settlement of the question. In the columns of this journal all the data really necessary for t le solution of a very simple commercial problem such as this have appeared over and over again, and over and over again have we pressed them upon public attention with all the earnestness the importance of the subject deserves. At the risk of being thought a little tedious, we will here once again recapitulate the main points of the ar gument. It is 82 miles from London to Folkestone ; 27 miles from Folkestone to Boulogne ; 169 miles from Boulogne to Paris. In other words, the distance from London to Paris by Folkestone and Boulogne is 278 miles. Now let us take the Calais route. It is 88 miles from London to Dover; from Dover to Calais 23 miles; from Calais to Paris by railway, via Lille, 235 miles ; that is to say, from London to P ar i s by the route now taken by the mails it is 346 miles. It is E.B miles from London to Dover, from Dover to Boulogne 28, from Boalogne to Paris 169 —in all 285 m il es . These figures would seem at once to be decisive on the question, unless some very strong ground indeed connected with the Channel pas sage can be shown fur preferring the longer to the shorter route. Now, what are the facts? Let us con fine our attention for the moment to the rival routes of Dover and Calais, and Folkestone and Boulogne. No doubt Calais is preferable to Boulogne as a harbour. There is much less necessity at the first-named port for open-boat work. The average dur a ti on o f t h e passage from Dover to Calais is nearly lh. 40m.; from Folke stone to Boulogne it is about 2h. 10m. The average the reverse way is—Calais to Dover 2h. Om.; Boulogne to Folkestone 2h. Oln. Tho average both ways is, between D ov er and Calai s lb. sOrte between Folkestone and Boulogne 2b. 501. Thus the diff erence o f average i s ex actly 15M.—or, to speak largely, let as say 20 minutes. Certainly this is not a set-off which should induce us to prefer the route which is longest by seventy miles. But it is said greater regularity can be obtained by the Calais than by the Boulogne route. Upon this we would remark in the first place, that unless the amount of irregularity be very consi derable this position will not hear investigation. Much better would it be that the French bags should be dis tributed by the early delivery for 290 working days of the year, and somewhat later on the other 23 days. than that they should be sent round by the mid-day delivery upon all the 313 days during which Englishmen labour and toil every year of their lives. Be this, however, as it may, let us see, i n point of fact, what is the difference of irregularity between the two routes. We are writing with tables before us on this subject, which have been very carefully prepared for a p am p let p ub lished in the commencement of this year. to which we h ave a l rea d y called attention in the course of this controversy. We will content ourselves with stating results. The number of irregularities in the year 1848 by the Boulogne route (not referrable to causes, such as the revolution, &c.) was 32; by the Calais route in the year 1849, 26; that is to say, the Boulogne line is worse than the Calais line by six irregularities. On the hand it is superior, inasmuch as it is well nigh 70 miles shorter, and the mail bags are conveyed along it in two hours less time than via Calais and Lille. Our limited space forbids us to enter into those details which no doubt will appear set out at length in the re port of the Select Committee. We refer especially to the system on which the transit of the bags is at present managed, and the one upon which it might be managed, within the French territory. The gene geral needs ext rac t e d from the time-tables are as tollows:—The maximum speed obtained between Paris and Calais is now 7, it used to be 8 hours; from Calais to Paris it used t o b e 7 , it is now q. The maximum speed between Boulogne and Paris might be 44 hours. From Boulogne to Amiens is 76 miles; and this distance is now performed by ex press in 2 hours 15 minutes. Supposing this rate to be maintained between Amiens and Paris, the time occupied on the whole journey would be 5 hours, and a fraction longer on the " down" journey from Paris to Boulogno. We come to the following conclusion from the facts we have adduced as well as fro m others o f the same kind—that the distance between Paris and London should be accomplished for pos tal p ur p oses in a time ranging between eleven and twelve hours. Say that the bags which leave Paris at 8 o'clock P.M. could be de livered in London at, say, 7k A.M. the following morn ing, it would be well enough. Now, we have no manner of doubt that such a result can be obtained by transfer ring the mail-service to Folkestone and Boulogne. Thus the London merchant would have the whole business-day to answer his French and southern correspondence; and the foreign and Indian bags would be forwarded at once down to the great seats of commercial in dustry in the provinces without the loss of a whole day, as at present. The question of the alte ration o' the Calais route is simply one of time, just like the abolition of Smithfield market, or aramural interments, or any other great public nuisance. 01 comae, it is right tha there should le inquiries, and that what all the world knows already should be put into an official ar.d au horitative form before it be officially Acted upon. But never had u Select Committee a simpler duty to'perform than the pie sent one ; its main office is to declare a forgone min elusion in a manner so emphatic that their recommen dation may at once bear fruit in action. it is somewhat discreditable to the good sense of,all parties concerned, that we should be now occupied in the preparation of a fifaeth protest upon the question whether it be worth while to travel seventy miles out of the way between London and Paris when the object is to pass as quickly as may be from one capital to the other.--Times.

THE PERIWINKLE TRADE. --It would hardly be supposed that so trifling an article of consumption as peri winkles could form a matter of extensive traffic ; but so it is. Sometimes as many as 50 or CO tons of these little shells are brought at a time to our quay from the island of Ker vera, opposite Oban, where they abound, and are gathered by the poor people, who get 6d. A bushel for collecting them. From this they are shipped to Liverpool, and thence by rail to London, to satisfy the insatiable maw of the modern Babylonians. Very few are retained here in transit, as the popular taste for" whilks and buckies," is not so strongly marked in our population, and better profits are conse quently obtained in London, even after paying so much sea and land carriage.—Glasgow Paper. MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT, MAY 2.—The market to-day has presented no material variation from Tuesday. Spinners and manufacturers are very firm in de manding an advance, and the consequence has been that a very small amount of business has been transacted. DISFIGUREMENT OF LONDON , 'BRIDGE.—In the Court of Common Council, the other day, great objections were nade to the brick building now being raised on the Surrey ,ide of London-bridge. near the Bridge House Tavern. We Irn't wonder at it. It is an ugly pile, sadly in the way.— Builder. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The journals of the reactionary party have, ever since the return of M. EUGENE Sup, been announcing " a reform of the Electoral Law," that is .to say, an attack upon the principle of Universal Suffrage, but as yet no Ministerial measure has been proposed to the Assembly on the subject—not that the Ministers shrink from making an attack on the Constitution — not they indeed. They have prepared a measure for the " regulation," as they call it, of Universal Suffrage,, but an : unexpected obstacle has arisen in the way of its proposition to the Assembly. The PRESIDENT of the Republic . do s not approve of it, because the changes proposed will give the Legitimatists and Orleanists an advantage over himself and his friends in any future elections. MM.'THIERS, MOLE, and'euxisuAnNisu, have been endeavouring to persuade him to consent to the pro posed alteration, which will disfranchise at least two millions of votes. General CHANGARNIER has a per sonal interest in this question, as it is well known that the Legitiinatists intend to start him as their candidate for the Presidency of the Republic in 1852, trusting that he will be the French General MONK of the new restoration. MM. VIRLLARD and AI3ATITCCI recommend the PRRSIDBNT to renal M. DUYAIIRII, and to adopt system of conciliation; and M. DUNN, the President of the Assembly, gives the same advice : he says that the time has arrived when all the friends of France should take their stand on the ground of an " honest and moderate Republic," and that the Go vernment should be composed of " honest and mode rate men." A letter from Toulon of , the 30th ult. mentions that the Viscount DR CHAVIGNY, condemned to hard labour for life, for the murder of his wife, died last week in the hospital of theconviet prison.

On the 29th ult. the Erfurth Parliament was pro rogued by the following message from the Council of Administration, which was delivered by RADOWITZ to the House of the People, and by CARLOWITZ to the House of the States : " MESSAGE OF VIE ADMINISTRATIVE COUNCIL. " The Administrative Council of the Contederate German Governments has received the statement of the resolutions which the Parliament assembled here since the 20th March has passed concerning the drafts of the constitution, Sac. ( Vorlagen), notified and delivered to it in the name of these Governments in the opening message. " With these resolutions, which the Administrative Council will make known without delay to the Confede rate Governments with a view to a closing declaration, the Parliament has discharged that more proximate co operation in the work of the constitution of the Ger man Union, which article 4 of the Federal Statute of the 26th May, 1849, designated to be the purpose of this session. " While the Administrative Council accordingly re cognises the labours of this Parliament directed to this end as ended for the time being, but still reserves the right of reconvokiog it (dessen Wiedereinbelnfung jedoch vorbehdlt), it expresses to those men whom the first German Parliament united here its lively thanks and its perfect estimation of that sense of patriotism, that earnest will, and that assiduous zeal which have been displayed in the revision of the constitutional drafts, and in the motions of amendnient that have emanated therefrom. " The Administrative Council receives these results in the belief which they strengthen—the belief, that is, in the successful solution of the great political question which the Confederate Governments have proposed to themselves under the consciousness of their duties and their signification' of acquiescence, and it (the Council) accompanies them with the sincere wish tbat the work of the constitution in its completion may obtain that appreciation which, in the true interest of all parts (i. e,, of the federal whole), it has to lay claim to. " I hereby, in the name of the Confederated Govern , menti, declare the session of Parliament closed." Several of the officers of GEORGEY'S army have been sent as prisoners to fortresses i❑ Bohemia. The Emperor of AUSTRIA is, it is said, about to visit Trieste, Venice, and Milan. The Cologne Gazette thus comments on the act of political suicide recently committed by the boy EmrEaort, at the instance of his bigotted and priest-ridden mother. "What Autocratic Austria did not venture to do under Mettt , rnich, Constitutional Ausiria has done publicly and officially, viz., the recall of the Jesuits; in the official journal of Verona we read the decree of installation signed with Radetzky's own hand, whereby the , e worthies have the necessary localities assigned to their cardinal. Schwartzeuburg is most zealously interested in the mat ter, and dispenses the neediul cash with a liberal hand. Their net is spread widely. Vienna has been omitted, probably to prevent the young men from coming into collision with their spiritual power; nevertheless, their influence has been secured i❑ the highest quarter; the future father confessor of the Court is to be a member of the order of the Jesuits." Baron STURMER has resigned the post of Aus trian Internuncio at Constantinople, and is expected at Vienna in the course of the present month. The Wanderer says the investigations of the flagrant plundering of the Jews in the year 1848, in Neustadt, on the \Vaag, and near Syered, having been termi nated, the injured parties are now to receive indem nification. Some villages will have to pay as much as 10,000 florins, which will be raised by putting in executions. _ The Emperor of AUSTRIA has given orders for the establishment of dockyards at Pols and Trieste, and for increasing the navy to six ships of the line, six frigates, and a proportionate number of small craft. HOLLAND. 'LIB racing, APRIL 30.—This afternoon at ha' past three o'clock, the usual ceremony of betrothement and exchange of rings, took place at the palace of his Royal Highness Prince FREDERICK of the Nether lands, between her Royal Highness the Princess Louise, eldest daughter of Prince FREDERICK, and his Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Swum's and NORWAY. His Royal Highness the CROWN PRINCE proceeded from his hotel to the palace in great state, attended by a mounted guard of honour.

Intelligence has been received from Athens to the 18th ult. At that date the differences with England continued unsettled ; the Greek Court was intriguing to gain time, until it should receive from St. Peters burgh an answer to its last communication. The Greek nation admits the justice of the greater part of the claims of England, and is desirous of coming to a settlement, but the Greek Government, acting under the inspiration of Russia, interposes every obstacle to an amicable settlement. ir THE MAILS.--SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY, ALc ar 2. nes, The Royal Mail Steam Packet Company's Captain George Abbott, took her departure and with the usual British and foreign West India c . & ia charge the mails for the Gulf of Mexico, Honduras,. : s t h h i i p s rn a as r , n oon ger route is of Lieutenant Hay, R.N., Admiralty agedntMobile to Vera via Bermuda, the Bahamas, Havannah , ", he Thamei took Cruz and Tampico, in the Gulf of Mexico. ,som ' h are Lieutenants nut only 17 passengers, alnong st i k h i for Jamaica.
