This class of gentlemen are nominally requited from a fund an- Pjlally raised for the poor, amounting to nearly eight millions sterling. Called into active service by the humanity and wisdom of the 4'41 ' 14 they have been considered as paid by 175,0001., averaging pm ease, as sh own b y a b ove 800 promiscuous returns, i n coun t r y c : s triets, 2s. 7d., an d I s. 6 for metropolitan districts, being less than half the cost of drugs alone in hospitals. One-half of this • amount is paid by the parishes, the other out of the Consolidated rand. ni!")elled by a sense of renewed and continued oppression and mis ,e, injurious to themselves, sad also to the sick poor and to the I l l t ePa , ere, th e Poor-laW Medical Officers have often laboured for e reform of the vicious syetem. Convinced of the existence of these evils, opposed to justice, rintnauitY, and science, Lord Ashley (aided by the indefatigable e,ertions of Mr. Guthrie, then President of the College of Surgeons) obt ained a P ar l iamentery Inquiry through a S e l ec t C omm itt ee i n " 4 .

Multiplied aggres ,' 1 " R, and miseries needlessly incurred through false economy, found anot her organ by w hi ch to give utterance to their plaints in the Conve ntion which was established in October, 1847, over the first annual meeting of which Lord Ashley presided. Pet itions to Parli amen t from various classes of society have been numerous and fr equen t. D e p u tations have waited on the Home h WSecretary„_ of State, and again and again on the Poor-law Board. 1,`,7e deputation s h ave b een rece ived with official politeness, and fo re of sympathy and promises of consideration. Urei n re r ecent-IY, orders have emanated from the Poor-law Board, cu rtaihnent of expenditure, sanctioning deviations from their ro nseltdated order, and suggesting a further reduction of salaries to t4 eu ab c o M officers, even bringing them down in ono metropolitan union Conal about Sd. Per case. Such appreciation of the services of profes e,,,„— '"en, who are expected to be gentlemen of education, ill be ,raes a board, one of whose secretaries, Lord Ebrington, receives a de r t .

If you are in want of that beautiful adornment of the human time, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or of any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer, an I Is. bottle of Grimstene's Arematie Regenerator. This is an essential spirit, drawn from aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Her bary, Mighgate), 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 maybe read in his pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed. Each pamphlet has the signature of William Grimstene, Merchant, Herbary, Highgate, and will be found at page 11, uneer 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.

A few of its many virtues, as thousands can prove, are published In the pamphlet enclosed with each bottle. Reader, reflect for a few minutes, and if yeti 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 cause - , --the universal use of Grimstone's Eye Snuff ! and because it cured Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, cataract, Nervous Headach, and Deaf ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi cine, and to he 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 et 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 ii canis ters, within the reach of every poor family. But under this order of Government it is obliged to be stamped.

GLASGOW, MAY 15.—The weather has continued rather cold for the season, especially a t n i g ht ; b u t as ye t w ithout causing apprehension to farmers so f ar as our i n f o rmation tends. There has been little adaition to our stock either coastwise or by the Clyde, with the exception of about 2.049 sacks of four from France. Ireland supplied us with about 1,646 quarters of oats, and 800 sacks of flour; and the continent with about 4,289 quarters of wheat, 2,053 quarters of barley, 1,420 quarters of beans, 81 quarters of peas, and 402 quarters of rye, received at Grangemouth. Trade exhibited renewed activity during the week, and business to some extent occurred in wheat at an advance of 6d to is per 2401 b, and flour at an equal improvement. Other articles were 'a better sale, and the turn in favour of sellers. This day's market was well attended by town and country buyers. Wheat of home growth being scarce commanded beyond the quoted advance for fine qualities. Foreign, the stock of which is reduced into a narrow compass, as well as flour, was firmly held at the above-mentioned rise, whereat a moderate sale ensued. Barley has to be written 6d dearer per 3201 b. Oats advanced 3d to 6d per 2641 b, and oat meal 6d to Is per load. Egyptian beans were held Is, and peas 6d higher per 2801 b.

The supply of sheep was • good, and might be considered a shade lower. Fat lambs were plentiful, there being considerably more than was needed for one day's supply, consequently there were very many lots driven away unsold.

The following is the correspondence which took place between M. PIDAL and Lord PALMERSTON on the subject of the renewal of our diplomatic relations with Spain : No. 1. SENOR PIDAL TO VISCOUNT PALMERSTON. Madrid, March 30, 1850. Most Excellent Sir,—The Spanish Government, which deplores, and has always deplored, the state of inter ruption which has for some time past existed in the diplomatic relations with the Government of her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, and the causes which have produced this unfortunate state of affairs, desires no thing with more sincerity and good faith than the re newal of those relations in a manner worthy and suit able to the character of the two Governments, and the renewal of the ties which for ages have united two friendly nations, bound , together by so many interests, and by so many and such glorious recollections. Animated by this desire, the Spani s h Go v ern men t does not hesitate to give a new proof of the sincerity of its sentiments, and of the high esteem in which it holds the friendship of Great - Britain, by taking the initiative in the steps destined to bring about a re-establishment of the ancient relations. The Spanish Government believes that, in order to bring about so desirable an object, there is no occasion to enter into a discussion of events already past. The Government of her Catholic Majesty regrets and deplores those events, and desires that they should be sincerely and completely consigned to oblivion. But the real state of the case, and, above all, the con sideration due to a friendly nation, require that the Spanish Government should declare in the most explicit and solemn manner, as by the present note it does, that in the measures which in alarming circumstances it felt called upon to adopt, it was not in any manner whatever its intention to give the least offence to Great Britain, or to hurt her dignity in the slightest manner. If, in consequence of these proceedings, and of this frank and explicit declaration, it should suit the Cabinet of London► to re-establish the ancient diplo matic relations, the Spanish Government declares itself ready to receive any Minister whom it may please her Britannic Majesty to send to Madrid, and it flatters itself that in the frank and friendly manner in which the representative of England will be treated, and in the efforts which, on its part, it will make to draw closer the relations between the two countries, the English nation will find a new proof of the interest and importance which Spain attaches to the friendship of Great Britain, and of the upright intentions with which it is animated in this respeot. The Government of her Catholic Majesty trusts, then, that the step which it comes forward to take will not prove ineffectual; and• that her Britannic Majesty's Go vernment duly responding thereto, relations of mutual consideration and friendship will be re-established and maintained in a firm and durable manner, in conformity with ancient ties and recollections, and with the con venience and interest of both nations. The undersigned, &c. PEDRO J. PIDAL. VISCOUNT PALXERSTON TO SENOR PIDAL. Foreign-office, April 23, 1850. Sir,—The Government of • her Britannic Majesty has received the note which has been addressed to it by the Government of Spain through the intervention of his Majesty the King of the Belgians, expressing the ' regret of the Spanish Government at the existing in terruption of the diplomatic relations between Great Britain and Spain ; stating the earnest wish of the Spanish Government that those relations should be re sumed ; declaring that in the circumstances which led to their interruption the Spanish Government was not actuated by any intention to give offence to Great Bri tain ; proposing that past events should be consigned to oblivion ; and further saying that if in consequence of this frank and explicit declaration it should suit the Bri tish Government to re-establish the ancient diplomatic relations between the two countries, the Spanish Go vernment declares itself ready to receive any Minister whom it might please her Britannic Majesty to send to Madrid. The British Government being as desirous as the Government of Spain can be that those friendly rela tions which had so long subsisted between the two coun tries to their mutual advantage should be re-established in a manner consistent with the honour and dignity of both nations, accepts this overture in the same spirit of conciliation in which it has been made; and the British Government is willing, in accordance with the desire ex pressed by the Government of Spain, to consign past events sincerely and completely to oblivion. Her Majesty will therefore appoint a Minister to the Court of Madrid. If Sir; Henry Balwer had been at the present moment unemployed, the deep interest which that Minister has always taken in the prosperity of the Spanish nation and in the honour and dignity and stability of the throne of the Queen of Spain, would have led her Majesty's Government to think that no person could have been better qualified than he would have been to re-establish in a solid and durable manner the diplomatic relations between the two countries. But Sir Henry Balwer being st present employed on the Queen's service elsewhere, her Majesty will select some other suitable person to represent her at the Court of Madrid; and in return the British Government assures the Government of Spain that any Minister whom the Queen of Spain may be pleased to appoint to the Court of St. James's, will be received with that cordiality which is due towards the representative of a power connected with Great Britain by ancient and most honourable ties. I have, &v., _ (Signed) PALMLRSTON. GERMANY. The following is a translation of the Prussian reply to the Austrian circular of the 26th of April : " Baron Prokesh Osten, the Austrian Ambassador at this Court, has communicated to me a proclama tion of his Government, of which I enclose a copy, and by which he is instructed to invite his Majesty's Government immediately to send a plenipotentiary to Frankfort-en-the-Main, for the purpose of entering into consultation with all the members of the German Confederacy, who have likewise received invitations to the sense effect. The subjects of these consulta tions, as stated in the enclosed circular, are, first, the constitution -of another • Interim' in the place of that which expired on the Ist instant; and, second, the revision of the federal constitution. Her Majesty's Government sympathises with the re gret which is expressed in the said dispatch at the unfavourable result of the preliminary negotiations between Prussia and Austria on thi s subject; but his Majesty's Government shares likewise the conviction of the duty which is incumbent upon all members of the Confederation, to take care that the affairs of the Con federation shall not want a general direction, and to assist in the suitable reformation on a legal basis of the federal constitution, which is not, indeed, appli cable to the relations and circumstances of the present time. His Majesty's Government has made certain proposals for the institution of another Provisional Government. These proposals, it teemed to his Ma jesty's Government, offered the easiest solution, and appeared most applicable to the facts of the case. And, having done this, the Government of his Ma jesty the King cannot submit to any responsibility, since the non-acceptance of these proposals has caused a la mentable delay, and since the Interim has expired without any arrangements having been entered into to provide for a new one. The same facts of the case to which I alluded above determine the stand which his Majesty's Government takes in its consideration of the questions relating to the revision of the federal constitution. The recognition of these facts alone can promote that harmony of views on the principles on which the future creation is to rest, and the absence of which is so justly lamented by the Aus triau Qoyerument, glace it hits hitherto preveuted the m su a c d c e. ess of any attempts at union which may hate been "These facts are, not only the events and federal re solutions of 1848, but also the Austrian charter of a con stitution dated the 4th of March, 1849, and the Austrian claim (which is, indeed, most closely connected with that charter) of extending the federal relations to the whole of the Austrian MonarChy, and not less the more con fined league which a large number of German States ( , (without prejudice to their federal duties) entered into by 'the treaty of the 26th of May, 1549. It is, therefore, the ground of sacred rights and treaties, and the matter of fact ground of existing circumstances, on which Prussia stands in taking her resolutions. "As for the expedient which the Austrian Go vernment proposes, of convoking a Congress of all members of the Confederacy, his Majesty's Go vernment can only promise to submit the plan to the consideration of its allies. His Majesty the King, my gracious lord and master, has fur that very pur pose issued an invitation to his princely allies to meet him, in company with their responsible Minis ters, on the Bth inst., at Berlin, to consult on their joint plans and prospects. Any steps which his Majesty's Government may in future take must depend on the re sult of their consultations. " But his Majesty's Government is compelled, in the very outset, to protest against the assumptions of the en closed dispatch of the Austrian Government, which refers to the Articles 5 and 6 of the Federal Act, and which seem to presuppose that the Congress which possibly may meet at Frankfort shall meet on the strength of the late presidential functions of Austria, and that such Congress is to represent the Plenum' of the late Federal Council. Against these assumptions his Majesty's Government records its most conclusive protest. The Federal Council was dissolved ,by the legal resolutions of 1848, and the late presidential functions stand on that dissolu tion. The only light in which we can consider the summons to a Congress is that of an invitation which has been sent to the individual Governments. Nothing is more natural, and indeed justifiable, than that the Austrian Government should invite other Governments to consult on matters of common interest, but we can not allow that this invitation be bound up with a' pre clusion,' or with other prejudicial consequences for those Governments which, perhaps, may think proper to decline taking part in these deliberations. The only consequences of bitch deliberations which can apply to such Governments are, that their results do not apply to them. Those who attend at Frankfort will consult on arrangements which apply solely and exclusively to them, but they will not by any means be entitled to pass general orders in the name and by virtue of the Confederation. His Maj e sty's Government think s it a duty to make an early and open declaration of its prin ciples, while it reserves all other resolutions and decla rations for consultation with its own allies. " Your Excellency will oblige me by communicating this dispatch to the President of the Austrian Cabinet. " Berlin, May 3." " SCHLIINITZ." HAMBURGH, MAT 12.—His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of SWEDEN and NORWAY set out yesterday morning for Lubeck, where the Swedish war-steamer Thor is in readiness to take him to Stockholm. [PRICE SD. HOLLAND. THE HAGUE, MAT 16.—The Government has is sued an order to the Commercial Chambers, desiring, Ist, A return of the moneys which have been paid to the various merchants and manufacturers by the British Government since Dec. 31, 1849 ; and, 2d, A return of the trade and navigation with Great Britain for the first four months of 1850. The reply of the Government to the observations of the committee of the Second Chamber on the pro ject of law for regulating the navigation-laws has been submitted to the Chambers. The Government declares against the Parliamentary inquiry, involving a useless loss of time ; that the Netherlands flag was able to compete with foreign flags was amply proved ; the object of the Government was to secure the cheapest means of freightage under any circumstances. That with regard to ship•building there was no reasonable ground whatever for the apprehension that the Netherlands could not compete with foreign coun tries.—Dutch Papers, May 15, DENMARK. COPENHAGEN, Mir 10.—Yesterday the Prussian General Vox BuLow arrived here. It is well known that M. Vox BuLow concluded the armistice of Malmoe, and hence his arrival here is considered by many as the token that he is the harbinger of a mes sage of peace. We are, however, inclined to think that had such peace been concluded, intelligence thereof would have been brought by a Danish diplo matist, and that the arrival of M. Vox &mow rather indicates further negotiations. The widowed Princess JULIANA of Hesse Philip stadt died here yesterday, after suffering only five days from an attack of asthma. The illustrious lady was in the 64th year of her age, and was the sister of his late Majesty King . CHRISTIAN VIII.; she will be long remembered by the poor of the capital. The apanage of the Princess, 30,000 marks, falls to the State, as her Royal Highness died without issue. ITALY. The Corriere Mercantile states from Milan, 7th inst., that the Lombardo-Venetian loan has barely found voluntary subscribers to the amount of two millions of francs up to the last day, and that it there fore is to become a forced loan, to be divided as fol lows : 20 millions upon capitalists, bankers, &c. ; 20 millions upon landed proprietors; End 20 upon per sons exercising a trade or profession. Three forts more are being constructed at Milan, and another fort is in construction at Laveno. A notification has been published, inflicting an imprisonment of three months upon any person caught in the act of illegally crossing the Swiss or Tiedroontese frontier. Great difficulty is experienced at Milan in obtaining pass ports for foreign parts. ST. CLEMENT'S DANES. Last evening a numerously attended vestry meeting of the above parish was held in the Vestry-room, Pickett street, for the purpose of anditing the churchwarden's accounts of the past year, and also to make a church-rate for the yet.r ensuing. The Rev. W. W. Ellis, the rector, presided, and aft e r the minutes had been read by the vestry clerk, and con firmed, the accounts of the churchwardens were laid be fore the vestry, and approved. Mr. Churchwarden SPENCER sttted that the esti mated expenditure for the support of the church for the ensuing year was 9721. ss. '2d., and the amount in hand, and receivable, partially derived from pew-rents, 2741. Is. 4d., leaving to be provided for 6981. 3s. 10d. ; and to meet which he theretc re felt that he should be able to provide, without calling fur a greater rate than 2d. in lite pound. Mr. BELLAMY accordingly moved a vote to that amount, which was seconded by Mr. JUDEINs. Mr. SPENCER, in answer to inquiries, having declared that he could only meet the necessarry expenses with great difficulty by a rate of 2d. Messrs. Woodward, Peters;llarrison and other gen tlemen, urged increasing the rate to la., and an amend ment to that effect was accordingly proposed, and eventually carried, in lieu of the original resolution, e w o h nT i d c he h er . w ß a E s c IN T o i t it h dhrsaywi by ng ex p c r o e n s s s e e n d t h o i fthe s mover and gratification at the ea t li mn e Mt rar vote, o. economically expended. rcd eco nomichinwuarhrciyhac hnw u d n ahr a ned n epe i en m lee ds i ss t ga y perzyd :l3 hcc i Eih c f t h usrte p chlb r fa s ..na r rhka a otei • the • be in m sup feaeitri p iny o g r a t fnoodrf nowe the ep - iti.ll)ln stampee t dT e uAtresi Government m .' , ----------7-7-----1- 17 ------ ie ;proposed increase of oh D re l t E r B a . f n u s n fe d r s o , f i a s ll m s e h t ar i e n s and the s c toc ity k, increasing dissatisfaction.

It appears, however, that the Bill has alteration of the objectionable points, and that, consequently, the value of all investment in the public enterprises of the country—for the new scale would apply alike to dock stocks, m i n ing shares, assurance shares, railway shares, Ecc.— is in danger of being lessened. The extent to which this damage would be inflicted cannot be measured by the precise increase of•the tax, since expenses and difficulties in the way of transfers are always observed in a commercial community to produce worse results thaw would at first have been ima gined, but the direct and actual amount of the evil about to be inflicted is of itself in the present case important. A person investing 5,0001. in railway or other shares under the old scale would be required to pay stamp charges to the amount of about 31/., while according to what is now pro posed the payment will be 501. Apart from other considera tions, the existing state of railway property is enough to suggest the inexpediency of such an addition to its. unfavour able aspect, and it is felt that if instead of the contemplated tax of 11. per cent. the scale had been limited to 10s. pe oent., the alteration would have been deemed a most. de sirable one, while at the same time the gradual increase o, vag t t t o ra t ti h s e enacrteivonsulev.—Times. ould i h e a s. ve:preyented any long-continued 1 THE COLD WEATHER.—In the last monthly paper of the Royal Astronomical Society, Dr. Forster calls atten tion to the simultaneous phenomena of numerous solar spots and unusual cold, which have occurred since March 18.
