How often on the public sheet we gaze On this familiar editorial phrase. i An editor while managing a journal, No matter whether weekly or diurnal, Causes unnumbered letters to be written, From various parties, in and out of Britain ; And so do we—in a different station, Each conveys some fresh communication, Corroborating all that we have said, And telling us how wide our fame is spread. We thank our correspondents, and entreat Leave to reply upon the public sheet. A. B. declares, and so does D. C. S., That all their friends approve of MOSES' dress. MOSES and SON, says F, and X. Y. Z., As tailors, must be ever at the head. Victor writes to tell us of the fact, That distant places learn how MOSES act ; That while he visited a part remote, Be read a statement from our house of note. True Blue declares—and E, and 0. P. Q., That MOSES shall be ever had in view. And A. E. T. 0. N. speaks also thus ; And Looker-on, and Quizzy, and Ainicus, The whole of whom, whatever be their rank, We heartily, most heartily, as tradesmen thank. And ever shall we strive to claim dominion, And keep our correspondents' good opinion. LIST OF PRICES. Ca sh _ MADE TO WlCAstraa.

BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH, New road, London.—The principles of the Hygeian theory are contained in the following propositions :—l. The vital principle is contained in the blood. 2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood. 3. All constitutions are radically the same. 4. All dis eases arise from the impurity of the blood, or, in other words, from acrimonious humours lodged in the body. 5. Ellis humour which degenerates the blood has three sources—the maternine, the conta gious, and the personal. 6. Disease and pain have the same origin, and may therefore be considered synonymous terms. 7. Purgation by proper vegetable purgatives is the only effectual mode of eradi cating disease. 8. Experience of upwards of 20 years has amply proved Morisou's Vegetable Universal Medicines to be such proper vegetable purgative. 9. From the intimate connexion subsisting between the mind and the body, the health of the one must conduce to the serenity of the other. Hygeism—The science of health. Hy geist—A promoter of health. Hygeian—Pertaining to the science of health. These terms have not been adopted through an affectation of singularity, but merely for the sake of drawing a sufficiently broad line of demarcation between the old and new schools. DINNER TO MR. CHARLES BUL- LER, M.P., AT LISKEARD. On Wednesday last the Liberal electors of the ancient borough of Liskeard, who since the late elec tion have contemplated a public demonstration of their satisfaction at the triumph they then achieved in the person of the Right Hon. Charles Buller, their distingushed representative in Parliament, entertained that gentleman at a grand dinner, in the Market house of the town. The leading gentlemen of the Reform party in the county assisted at the ceremonial, and upwards of three hundred connected with the agricultural and mining bodies were present. A pro fusion of laurels and dahlias decorated the room, which was also hung with numerous banners, dis playing an endless variety of appropriate political mottoes ; one in particular recording, in large gilded characters, the triumphant return of Mr. Buller, in opposition to Dr. Curteis, of Doctors' Commons, the Conservative candidate. The chair was taken at three o'clock by Barnard Anstis, Esq., Mayor of Lis keard, who was supported on the right by John Tre lawny, Esq., M.P., and Mr. Rundell, the late Mem ber for Tavistock. On the left were J. T. A. Ro bartes, Esq., M.P. for East Cornwall; Ed ward Turner, Esq., M.P. ; Sir William Trelawny, Bart., Lord Lieutenant o f C ornwa ll ; and Mr. H. Stokes, of Truro. Mr. C. B u ll er , w h o , on entering was received with tremendous c h eer i ng , o ccupied a seat at the right hand of the Mayor. Sir W. Molesworth, M.P., was invited to attend, but, unfortunately, had previously engaged himself elsewhere. Sir Colman Rashleigh, Bart., declined to attend in consequence of the death of his father ; and several other gentle men of the county, known to be staunch friendsTof Reform, were prevented from attending by a variety of causes, explained in their respective letters. Stock ham's marine band attended, from Plymouth, and executed, with great brilliancy, their most favourite pieces. The dinner was provided in the most sub stantial style, and was done ample justice to by the Cornish yeomen present. _ _ The cloth having been removed, and the usual loyal honours observed, The CHAIRMAN said he had very great pleasure in proposing a toast which he was sure would be ac ceptable to every Reformer present, not only on account of its importance, but on account of the ser vices which the gentlemen, the names of whom he was about to mention, had rendered to the country. It was " The health of her Majesty's Ministers"— (Cheers)—and he was . confident that there was not one there:who would not recognise the claims they had on their kindness. Of this, at least, he was fully assured, that the health of a Ministy of which Lord John Russell was the chief, would be well received by a company of intelligent Reformers, and he, therefore, proposed to them " The health of her Majesty's Ministers."—(Cheers.) Mr. C. BULLER, when the cheering, with which he was greeted on rising, had somewhat subsided, said— Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen—Though it is not ex actly the capacity in which I wish to appear before you on this occasion, as representing anything but the borough of Liskeard, I must crave leave, as the only member of the Government present, to return you my sincere thanks in a few words for the Govern ment which you have so highly complimented, and of hich I am a very humble and subordinate member. Gentlemen, I said it was not in that capacity that I ished to address you now ; because as you have done me the honour to invite me here, the only quality I would recal to your attention was that in which I have the distinguished honour to serve you in t?arliament. At the same time, I am proud to think that when I answer for her Majesty's Ministers I answer for men with whom I am proud to act.— (Cheers.) They have succeeded to office under cir cumstances which, though they deprived them of power, at the same time relieved them of the respon sibility of determining the political course to be pur sued—they succeeded to power not by their own strength, but by the weakness and disruption of the opposing party. They succeeded to power because no one else would undertake to conduct or maintain the Government of the country. The country did them justice, gave them credit for good intentions, and supported them in the period of their weakness. It has since relieved them from that weakness, and placed them on the full responsibility of the Govern ment of the country. It is not for me, an humble member as I am of that Government, at all to pre. tend to indicate to you what will be its course or what will he its policy in the ensuing session of Par liament. I am no more than yourselves initiated in their secrets— I know no more than the humblest of my auditors what measures the Government are pre pared to bring before Parliament in the ensuing ses sion. I think you must look to the past character and past conduct of those men ; and by looking, as I have done, to their past characters, and to their past conduct, I am induced to give them my support, and humbly to co-operate with them. I am the more induced to do so, because I think that from our ex perience of the past we may judge that they will not be loath to use the power they hare now got for the benefit of the country ; and because I feel that you may repose in them the same confidence that I un hesitatingly do—the confidence I ask you to repose in them—the confidence which you show you have hitherto reposed in them, by the manner in which you have drunk the toast proposed by the Mayor,' and which rests entirely on the hope you form of their policy, grounded on your recollections of the past. In these hopes I feel confident you will not be disappointed—(Hear, hear)—and I feel as confidently that when, a few years hence, I may on an occasion of a similar nature, have to respond to this toast, I shall still have to respond for the same Liberal Go vernment, and be proud to appeal, as an evidence of their success, to a long list of liberal enactments, which I believe it is their present intention to propose, and their present occupation to prepare.—(Cheers.) The Cumasiare next proposed the health of Sir William Trelawny, Bart., Lord-Lieutenant of the county, which having been briefly acknowledged by that gentleman, he again rose and spoke thus :—I now come, gentlemen, to the toast of the day, and have the pleasure of proposing to you the health of our distin guished Member, Mr. Charles Buller.—(Great cheer ing.) Gentlemen, I have always thought that an honest constituency makes an honest representative, and that you can form, and well form, your opinion of what the representative is from the constituency he represents.—(Hear.) We have had a hard fight, e have passed through with great strength, and Mr. Buller has been enabled, by your honest exertions, to return to Parliament the Member for Liskeard. I do not on this occasion wish to refer to our political opponents in any degree whatever, for we have not assembled this day to crow over them, but to con gratulate ourselves on our success. Our contest was more difficult on account of the gentleman who was brought down to us—(Cheers) —but for sixteen years Mr. Buller and the Liberal interest here have had a difficult struggle to maintain. First, we had to contend with my Lord St. Germans, and next with Mr. Keke wich, who, with his friends, had a pretty large propor tion of the property in this neighbourhood. He brought with him an excellent character, and I believe that so far as our district is concerned, few better landlords were to be found.—(Hear, hear.) We rejected him be cause his opinions did not coincide with ours. But that was not sufficient; for our opponents said, " You have refused gentlemen and men of character, and now we shall bring forward a money influence." Gentlemen, we have had too much talk of money, and I much fear that the constituencies of Cornwall are becoming too frightened at the cry of a money Member. What guarantee have you that your prin ciples would be represented if you were to return a money Member ? Do you really think that a stran gera ) would represent them , who had come down to ?—(Cries thanof «N no.y" consider purchase your this boroughump hgreater achieved, because it has taught our opponents that in spite of their money influence they would be beaten. There are humble voters present who have received the temptation of gold, and it is my firm impression that they will derive far greater satisfaction from their knowledge of having acted on principle in returning Mr. Buller, than they would if they had received his op ponent's money.—(Cheers.) I cannot speak of Mr. Buller in his presence as I feel, but the highest praise I can bestow upon him is, to call to mind your good feelings towards him, and propose his health.—(Drunk with protracted applause.) Mr. C. BULLER, who then rose amidst the most vehement cheering from all parts of the room, re sponded as follows :—Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen— When I say that in rising to return you thanks for the honour you have done me on the present occa sion, I rise on an occasion of deeper interest to me, and when my feelings of gratitude and kindness to wards you are more strongly excited than on any former one which has afforded me the pleasure of addressing you, you must not understand that I spoke only of, or even mainly with reference to, the circum stances of our recent contest. I cannot consider that that contest was ever dangerous, or that it was at all likely to prove serious. We have on former occasions had to contend with great power, and great interest, and strong antagonists. Our triumph on this occa sion has been more signal, but we must not disguise it from ourselves, that it has been achieved against the weakest antagonist ever brought forward. Very little as I am inclined to rake up any bitterness of feeling associated with that contest, and much as I should wish it to be consigned to oblivion, or drowned in the recollection of our easy triumph, there are cir cumstances in that contest which always pain me to consider, because they may perhaps serve to create a bad impression of our county in other parts of the country.—(Hear.) You well know, gentlemen, the fatal stigma that attached in days gone by to the people of the Cornish coast. The atrocious practice of wrecking which they followed, united in itself feel ings of the most barbarous cruelty, with the hateful passion for gain, and I very much fear that, unde servedly though it be, this local custom may still be alleged against us by our political adversaries. I much fear, gentlemen, that when Dr. Curteis landed here, so to speak, like some shipwrecked mariner, and like him was carried up to the higher regions of hos pitality, he was inclined so to make use of this peculiar feature in the former character of the people of this county. I have sometimes feared, gentlemen, that when he is carried up to the more hospitable regions of the eastern metropolis, as he will most undeservedly consider them (for had he been right in coming to Liskeard, he could nowhere have experienced a warmer hospitality), he will tell a long and dismal tale of woe.—(Laughter.) I know not how he will tell it; whether he will sing it in the open streets with a fiddle before him—(Great laughter)—or what other means he may have recourse to, but be assured he will have recourse to some—he will endeavour to excite the sympathy of his countrymen in London, in favour of the misfortunes by which he has been over whelmed. I fear, in short, he will endeavour :to raise the suspicion that the spirit of Cornish wrecking sur vives in the disposition of the electors of Liskeard and its neighbourhood.—(Hear, and great laughter.) Happily, however, I am happy in being able to say, that the horrible vice of wrecking was not indigen ous in your town, though some of its inhabitants at one time took part in it ; but that stranger intro duced and taughtit, whilst Callington was the centre, whenever it was extended over the county.—(Cheers.) I can conceive with what horror the generous-minded citizens of London will listen to his tale of horror —how their blood will grow cold, and how their flesh will creep, when they hear this innocent Doctor of Laws—(Laughter)—who sailing tran quilly through the noiseless Courts of Doctors'-com mons, was allured from them through the false lights held out to him in Cornwall—(Tremendous laughter) —and who, having been thus induced to quit his re• treat, and cast himself on rocks, he was heartlessly pillaged by those to whose rapacity he had fallen a victim.—(Renewed laughter). Let us, then, once for all, assure our friends here, and our countrymen everywhere, that these are practices which the elec tors of Liskeard, and which all of us, as Cornishmen; indignantly repudiate, that we have no sympathy with those by whom Dr. Curtis was so disgracefully pillaged, but look on him as an exceedingly ill-used man, for whom, however, having done us an uncom mon good turn, we feel pity at his having been made the instrument of others to do it.—(Cheers and laughter). But, gentlemen, I feel pride and satis faction, when I turn not merely to the events of the late election, but to the many that have preceded it. I look back over a period of fifteen years, during which we have been connected, to the time when I first sallied forth to solicit from the electors of Liskeard, their aid in returning me to Parliament for their own borough, then for the first time invested with the privilege of franchise under the Reform Act. I had to contend on that occasion against a nobleman of great power and influence, of long attachment to and intimate relation with the borough, and who had by his ability and worth, both which we have in later days been proud to acknowledge, endeared himself to the people of this county. Certainly for a young man venturing forward, I was guilty Of great temerity in choosing for my opponent so distinguished a man as Earl St. Germans. Nevertheless, I feel, although there is certainly a difference of politics between us, that there is no man whose name can be pronounced with greater satisfaction, on the score of liberal and public conduct, than that of that Noble Earl.— (Cheers.) He was the first of his party—and to him let the just credit be ascribed, great Tory as he was .--he was the first of his party to go against his party from motives of conscience ; and that, too, he did at a time when party ran most high, by asserting in the most manly manner his own independence, notwith standing the thraldom of party disapprobation. With such an antagonist, gentlemen, I entered the field. I know not what qualifications induced me to go there, but I certainly had not those of a life devoted to public business. I believe I had the good feeling and kindness on your part, arising from my belonging to a family long resident, of whom I may say, without vanity, for it is of others I speak, and not of myself, that they have endeared themselves to those who in their locality have known them.—(Cheers.) I had to rely on one solitary act of my public conduct, and that act, I believe, secured me the support of a majority of the electors of Liskeard. It was simply this—that being at the time Member for the borough of West Looe, I did not hesitate to imperil my seat by voting for the Reform Bill, and thereby consecrate the interests of my family to the public good.—(Cheers.) Well, then, gentlemen, those were the high and palmy days of reform— those were the days when the county of Cornwall was, indeed, represented by men worthy of that proud distinction—by my distinguished friend Sir William Trelawny, the Lord Lieutenant, whose presence amongst you this day you have hailed with such unanimous tokens of satisfaction, by Sir William Molesworth, whom I regret to find prevented from attending in consequence of an unavoidable ac cident, and by other able and excellent indi viduals, who were then borne into Parliament by electors then, for the first time, enfranchised.— (Hear, hear.) Since that time our principles and our party have undergone great vicissitudes. That was the zenith of our sun, and we have seen dallit of gloom and despondency succeed. By large encroach ments on their ranks the number of reforming Mem bers in the House of Commons has been successively diminished, until at last, in the election of 1841, we were placed for the first time, in a minority, and the Tories were brought into power. But, gentlemen, during that period, though we were deprived of the services of such men as Sir William Trelawny, and other reformers of this county, the borough of Liskeard always held on its steady course, unswerving, undeviat ing, and unfaltering. We have had a hard trial once or twice. The first time we beat our opponents easily, the second time not so much so, though there were circumstances in that more arduous contest which rendered victory doubly grateful. It was a feeling of triumph, I confess, though I myself never doubted of victory on that occasion. Certainly, how ever, a great impression was made by the vaunts of our opponents, and we were all aware that so sanguine were their hopes of success, that even the chair was prepared in which Mr. Keke wich was to celebrate his confidently anticipated success.—(Hear.) That vic tory, too, was achieved at a time the most disastrous to our cause, when the reaction occasioned by the passing of the Reform Bill was at its height, and when the Tories had collected their strongest forces previous to their final victory. Liberal constituencies through out the kingdom abandoned their cause as hopeless, and made up their minds that their adversaries should remain the conquerors. In that national conjuncture what did the electors of Liskeard do? Did they de spond ? They redoubled their energies, and since that time not a single registration has gone by that has not witnessed an increase of Liberal voters, until at length, I came down to the election in 1841, and saw myself returned almost without opposition. And now, gentlemen, it is after this period of fifteen years of alternate success and depression, that I come to you at what I think is a remarkable epoch in the history, not only of this borough, but of the country. I come to you at a period when your greatest triumph has been achieved through the tri umph of your adversaries. I consider that the suc cess of the Tories in 1841, and the raising of a Tory Minister to power, have been the greatest triumphs for Liberal principles that the course of events ever brought forth. You then had a Tory Cabinet, with men of the most distinguished ability at its head, who had a majority of nearly one hundred in the House of Commons, and an untold majority in the House of Lords. That Ministry was able, by its resources, to carry any measure it chose to introduce into Parlia ment ; then came the test of principle—then came the test of the wisdom of the policy pursued by each party respectively; and what has been the final re suit suit ?—(Cheers.) Why, that able and t i n telligent could take borne into Parliament by the T or y p ar y , take no other course than adopt the same political litical views which you, the electors of Liskeard, sent me to Parliament to recommend and advocate.—(Hear, hear.) I know of nothing that youcan so much, so fairly, pride yourselves.fe upon a dverse times. You may pride yourselves on as the consistency you have always man: on sted n h av ing returned me to Parliament to oppose ea strong Ministry, supported by a commanding majority in the House of Com mons ; but thereis nothing I know of that can be half so gratifying to you as men of intelligence, as to find that on your sending me there for that purpose, without receding from one single profession, I could conscientiously, as the representative of a Liberal constituency, give my vote in favour of a great proportion of the measures brought for ward by the Tory Government. And how, I might be asked, could I reconcile myself to an apparent anomaly of that nature ? Because that Tory Government, being opposed by men of ability, saw that the country [ PRr SD. r could be governed under no other laws than thos e which on all occasions you had supported, and because principles stronger than party, stronger than property, stronger than any coalition of influence that could be arrayed against them, coerced the strong Ministry to break up the Tory majority, by intro ducing a decidedly liberal measure. And now, gentlemen, I come before you under more favourable auspices. The sun of Liberal principles so long set, is rising again, and permit me to say, if not with the resplendent brilliancy of former days, at least with the prospect of a long and unclouded course.— (Great cheering.) I am not speaking as a party man ; nor do I say that this Government, to which I belong, and to which I am firmly attached on account of the integrity and wisdom of its principal men, and my conviction of their proper estimate of the exi gencies of the people ; I say, gentlemen, that it is not as attaching undue importance to the existence of that political Ministry that I congratulate you on the triumph of liberal prin ciples, and on their assured success and pre . . . dominance in this country for many years to come. I feel, too, gentlemen, that the triumph of liberal principles no longer depends for its stability or per manency on the influence of particular men. We have got to be independent men, and, by dint of pru dence and patience, have attained such a position that, be the government of the country possessed by whom it may, it is evident that, whatever man is placed at the head of affairs, the progress of liberal opinions will be steady, and, I am sure I need hardly add the word, safe. In the opinion of some it is possible that we may even have a Protectionist Government, and that Lord Stanley in the House of Lords, and Lord George Bentinck in the House of Commons, may be entrusted with the supreme direction of public affairs.—(Cheers and laughter.) As, however, I am not one of those who think such an event is within the compass of probability, I shall not inquire into the merits of that supposition, but dispense with it at once.—(Hear.) Notwithstanding all the va . pouring of the Protectionists during the last session of Parliament, this fact has come out by the sum mary of the late general election, that they are the only party which has sustained the loss by which the present Government is strengthened, and therefore I may congratulate you on the pleasing certainty, that whatever may be the fortune of party, or whatever the fears of individuals, or whoever may be entrusted with the great distinctions of State office, we may look forward with confidence to this, that for many years to come the Government of this country will act in accordance with the liberal feelings of the great body of the people. With regard to this topic, I may observe that I have seen some calculations of the respective strengths of parties in the new Par liament, and the editors of some newspapers have given with great exactness, in various columns, the different Members returned by each party, distin guishing those who were Protectionists, Peelites, and Ministerialists or Liberals. As they have confessed, it is undoubtedly very difficult to classify them with extreme accuracy, or to infer beforehand which way they mean to vote. And it cannot be doubted, gen tlemen, that during the short period which has elapsed since the election, great surprises must have been prepared for many individuals, who took an active part in it, and made themselves confident on the manner in which their political favourites would vote when returned as their Parliamentary represen tative. I have recently seen instances of a candidate being brought forward by our opponents, of whom I had formed the highest opinion of their merits and political attachment, but whose professions, even at the hustings, were very different from those which a Conservative candidate usually uttered.—(Hear, hear, and laughter.) But it is not always at the hustings that these scenes of disappoint ment occur; they are frequently reserved for a later period of the relationship between constituent and Member. The other day I had the good fortune to see a newspaper which contained a report of a very interesting speech made by a man of distin guished ability at the bar, to whom a dinner had just been given at Plymouth, for which borough, after great efforts he had been returned. I read that speech through, and am informed that it created the utmost astonishment amongst the supporters of the gentleman I refer to. lam told that one of them who had been mainly instrumental in bringing him forward, said one day, in the course of conversation—" Yes, Mr. R. Palmer is a long-headed man, a very long-headed man ; so long-headed that I cannot make him out."— (Great laughter.) Well, gentlemen, I for one, can make Mr. R. Palmer out, and I think that any one who reads his speech through, will perceive that Mr. R. Palmer, who came forward as a Conservative, is, at least, a very liberal Conservative. In fact, it has frequently been said, with regard to the greater number of disputes that have divided the world, that they would entirely cease if peeple would only come to a proper understanding on the nature of the terms they use.—(Hear, hear.) And, of this, at least, I am convinced, that if the definition of the term " Conservative," be borne out by Mr. R. Palmer's speech at Plymouth, few, very few, if, indeed, any, Reformers, would feel inclined to undertake the trouble of opposing such a Conservative as he is. I think, gentlemen, that on the support of these liberal minded men, though appearing by name in a diffe rent light, we are perfectly justified in relying. Whatever their distinctive denomination might be, you, the country, and the present Government, in its career of public good, have every reason to rely upon them for assistance. Of late it has been said, and much exultation has been exhibited on the subject, that the reign of party is at an end, and that the country is no longer to be ruled by it. Allow me to say that, however we may be pleased with or inclined to adopt such a proposition, it is one which, as prac tical men, we cannot entertain. My own opinion is, that in every free country government must be by party ; but I will explain to you what I understand by party. I understand by that term, that men hold ing substantially the same principles, and believing that their adoption would tend to promote the public good, feel confidence in each other, and are willing to waive minor differences, in, order that together they may be enabled to carry out the principle which they hold in common.—(Hear, hear, and loud cheers.) Now, I believe that in this world, where every great object must be attempted by the com bination of individuals, parties must of necessity be formed, and that the Government must for the time be conducted by the domination of party. Where a party becomes odious is, where the bond of party is not public good but private gain—where family and political connexions for personal patronage isithe link —and not the desire to carry out any great or excel lent principle, or achieve any desirable public object ; then it is, I say, that party becomes an evil and a mischief.—(Loud cheers.) But I say also, that it is not that party is bad in itself, but because party has outlived the principle that gave it birth.—(Cheers.) And I believe that in every free country where the state of public feeling is not vitiated, you will frequently have periods in which the questions which have divided men theretofore ceasing to divide them any longer they naturally come to consider the old causes of quar rel to which they were then impelled 'against ;one an other, to examine into the foundation of their party al liance, and to form themselves again into other political combinations. Now, I think that this country is just now at one of these periods. At the period of the Re form Bill there was a great desire for change, and the sweeping away o f old abuses, which occasioned the rise of the Ref orm par t y i n t h e ki ng d o m, and ultimately carried the R e f orm Bill. Then came a stron g Con servative reacti on , pro moted by men who by thought the ancient i ns tit u tions of the countrythoutconsideration, menaced the agitation, and who said, without " That Conservative " Be these reforms good or be think k y bad, a d d e , t l r sie m e w n i t l a l l to op pose all change, because w e the interests fo o r f s e the a p c y o u y n e t a r r y s . thwarted the progress party, which of every measure of public utility, and which ulti mately .riump • hed under Sir Robert Peel , was the result of the reaction in f eelin g which the Reform Bill created. Well, ge ntlemen, how has it ended after all? In the establishment of liberal principles, in honest men assembling to consider what they had for many years so long and so anxiously been battling about, and to agree upon promoting only those mea sures which are calculated to improve the state of so ciety amongst them. And what is the country now intent upon ? Why, Tories, Whigs, Radicals, I'ro tectionists, Free-traders, and Ultra-Tories--;:y 1 c l asses of public men have only one desire in c - Allmon, that of effecting great practical reform. in the `ad ministration of affairs in this country.—(Hear, hear.) I think, gentlemen, that. •we gave our adver• saries a noble example, any showed them that we were not to be frightened' particular names, or kept back from acting particular feelings of host: political propriety, by men. When Sir ility directed against par ticularßobert Peel, who had before that time been our decii - led opponent, brought forwar d useful and good rnea.v ,ures, we forgot our hostility, - and, by supporting , dm with our v otes, enabled him to carry his Bill. -(Hear, hear.) But thou g h we have passed the ti - z le in which our h o p es were de pressed and our cm ise appeared cheerless, you must not suppose that t.l'ae feeling excited by the Reform Bill has become el .tinct. I believe that Sir Robert Peel will still hely ! us, but even if he were inclined still to thwart (.o,r efforts, I am so convinced of the determination o 4 the country not to permit party feel ing any longett; tg band one set of men hostilely .7 , against another, and= so tit the execution of public good, th a t they would array themselves in stantly in support of that Government which contem plated the real good of the people.—(Cheers.) I say, gentlemen, with a clear conviction of its truth, that to such a Government a noble career is open. We have much to reform in our social and financial policy, and the reform must be, sooner or later, boldly under taken. The state of the law—l say it as a lawyer, with all deference to my friends near me, whose brows I per ceive are knitted against me on the present occasion— and to you, Mr. Mayor, who are often called upon to enforce the law, I say that the state of our law at this moment, improved though it be by the recent esta blishment of county courts—(Cheers and laughter)— is a disgrace to the country.—(A voice here exclaimed " That's brave; three cheers to Mr. Buller, to give him wind a bit.") The call, amidst much laughter, was warmly responded to, after which the Right Hon. Gentleman proceeded thus :—I am afraid, gentlemen, I must say, with every consideration for your wishes, that you have done a very foolish thing in giving me wind—(Great laughter)—because there is no know ing how long 1 might otherwise have been tempted to go on ; and if it had not been for the deep sense of the obligation and gratitude I owe to you, I might perhaps have extended my address beyond the limit which I now propose to myself to observe.—(Hear.) I shall, consequently, endeavour to abridge my re marks as much as possible, which, had it not been for the kind indulgence of my worthy friend who inter rupted me, would probably have drawn more seriously on your patience.—(Crie s of "No, no.") Well, gen tlemen, I was saying that the administration of the laws, whether in Chancery, or at common law—l will even add, with the leave of Dr. Curteis, in the Ecclesiastical Courts of the country, is disgrace ful to the country. Many measures have to be taken for the relief and improvement in condition of the great mass of our working population. Great mea sures have to be taken, and depend upon it that vigorous measures, amongst others, must be taken for remedying the unfortunate condition of the Irish people.—(Cheers.) For it is no longer to be borne, gentlemen, that so fair and so noble a portion of this country—one which, if fairly turned to account; and well governed, not only by Parliamentary enact ments, but by every man to whom property gives influence, would be the best part of her Majesty's dominions—should be a scandal, an eyesore, and a source of weakness to this great empire. That, too, is a disgrace to the country, and the longer it lasts the greater will be the peril we prepare for ourselves in the time to come ; and the greater still will be the ignominy attaching to the country that permits the existence of so monstrous a wrong.—(Great cheer ing.) These, and such questions as these, will be amongst those which the Parliament will have to discuss. To one, which closely c oncerns you , I s h a ll beg leave to allude more particularly. I mean the abortive measure of last session, the Health of Towns Bill. I have come down to you, and have seen a people, excellent amongst the working classes of the country for their intelligence, their religious feelings, and their general morality of conduct. I have gone through their towns and their villages, and have seen a condition of things producing filth, ,4 / and disease, and death, of which I Could not conceive the existence. These are evils which the Legislature should long sive have removed, by means which were always at hand, hurting no one, and bringing no expense that would not be ten times repaid by the return arising from them—they are evils which ought to be, and must be, removed.—(Cheers.) Such mea sures as these, embracing a general system of sani tary reform, taken in conjunction with others, are the matters which engage the attention of the country at the present moment ; and by realising, in these re spects, the wishes of the people, I believe that the Go vernment will gradually consolidate itself in the hearts of the nation.—(Great cheering.) These are the mea t•ures, too, gentlemen, which I believe will hereafter divide parties. But, as I have before observed, you must not be led away in the belief that the spirit which in other days proved destructive to reform is dead. Do not suppose that there will not be a large portion of the country that will not arrange themselves on the side of abuse. There will be that oppdsition, and against that opposition, I say, all the intelligence and virtue will be arrayed, I cannot doubt, in an over whelming majority.—(Cheers.) That in future days will mark the time of a separation between parties— between those who uphold abuses against which public opinion has declared itself, and those who propose to give a temperate reform to them ; and those, I believe, will be the Ministers of State, and the political favourites of the popular party in this country, who best carry out your wishes—who really endeavour to prevent desti tution, and who establish the most useful practical re forms. I am quite sure that in going to Parliament to help the Government to carry out such reforms as I have just now alluded to, I only bow to the expression of your will, and show myself worthy the confidence you have intrusted me with. Believe me, gentlemen, when I say that that wish does not depend on the mere agreement or coincidence of opinions between us. It is not because there happens to be an agree ment among the electors themselves, that I feel my self bound to give effect to their wishes and feelings. You have inspired me with a sympathy for your feel ings which will ever prompt me to show myself worthy of my trust. I knew from the first mo ment of my connexion with you what influences you would have to contend with. I knew that in former times, and even on a late occasion, not merely the influence of property was brought against you, but that considerations of a coarser kind would be thrown in your path. Inducements of corruption have been presented to the voters of Liskeard, and it is to their honour that they have in all, but very few instances, been rejected. But I speak in pity of one or two individuals who fell a victim to the outspread snare, and whose conduct stands out in strong con trast against that of the many, some of them humble individuals, deprived, perhaps, of the means of sub sistence, and undergoing with their families the bit terness of suffering; but who, notwithstanding the temptation offered to them, held fast to their practical cause of political rectitude and personal integrity, and said, " Whatever our necessities may be, we could not and would not satisfy them with the wages of political dishonesty."—(lmmense cheering.) When I have seen these men sacrifice everything to public principle, and do honour to Liskeard as a consistent and useful constituency—when I see all this, I say I feel proudly my attachment to such a body of men. I feel, not merely that there is no town, or city, or county in the country , the stampratio-f whose approbation could be half so g fying to me as the certificate m w o h . in h G e l n t e m derive e from you, who have so long known, I feel not only this, but I feel also the constancy and m a y e e , d a ,: d and I f T‘ e . a e feel m t htaht o l f s v h i o r u tu l d e for feiting my claim t o the res p ect of my fellow-men, b w e h h 0 3 n 7 o o u u ri h n a g v e m d y is n p a l w ere Ito show mysel f unworthyof political integr it y which y ou so g enerously set of the great example me .—(The Right Hon.

The busi ness was condu cted with closed doors; but we learn from a circular which has fallen into our hands, that the meeting considered " that the very . inadequate remune ration generally derived from capital invested in the collieries of this district, for the last two and a, half years, has tended to discourage the power of produ3.- tion ;" and this opinion, coupled with the fact .. that the demand for their staple commodity is iner.easing," led to the conclusion " that an advance of 2i. per chaldron should be made." It was resolved that , the prices o f London and coast coals be assimilate' d, and the prices be—best coals, 265. 6d. per chali: tri3n ; second class, 245. 6d. ditto ; other prices to be io proportion.

TO THE LADIES This lady had the following letter inserted in the " Times" news paper on Aug. 7, 1146. Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " ➢irs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than I aver was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an l Is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume itis far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact, .-3, Swan-street, Borougk." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and ,revent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A. few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may nse this delightful product of the mast aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops n the crown of the heal ; if wry bad, repeat it every quarter of an our. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces air on ehildren's heads in a few appplications. If used on Infants' eads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See pamphlet of testimonials.

CRI CKET. THE GENTLEMEN V. THE PLAYERS OF BLACK IIEATII.—This annual match was commenced at Blackheath on Tuesday, but the inauspicious weather rendered it impossible for it to be continued to its final ending. The score of the first innings left the gentlemen in a majority of two runs only. There was some very fine play throughout, but the bowling on each side proved too killing for any lengthened score to be effected. On behalf of the gentlemen, the bowlers were, Mr. Craven and Mr. F. Dyer ; and of the players, T. Hoblis and Hook. The score of the first hands was as follows :—The gentlemen, 31 ; the players, 29. In former years there have been two of these matches, but we lament to say that the gentleman who was then the leading organ of their coming off, has departed this life, after a few hours' illness, since the termination of the last season. To the late Dr. Fyffe, all cricketers on Blackheath, whether gentle men or players, were greatly indebted for the trouble and expense he incurred in getting up the annual contests between them. Next year we hope there will again be two matches, and, moreover, that they will he played in an earlier part of the season. In preceding years the gentlemen's eleven have embraced nearly the whole strength of the " Heath," but on the present occasion the late period at which the affair was appointed, rendered it impossible for seve ral of those parties to participate in one of their best snatches of the year. Many thanks are due to Mr. Andrews for his exertions in gathering the elevens, for had it not been for that gentleman, we think the match would have been omitted this year. ST. MARK'S, DULWICH, AND ST. GEORGE'S, CAM- BERIVELL.—TiIe return match between these two Cluba was played on the ground of the latter, the Rosemary Branch, Peckham, and terminated in fa vour of the St. George's, by nine wickets. The batting of Messrs. G. Bevington and R. Roberts, on the part of St. George's, and of Messrs. R. Russell and B. Judkin, elicited frequent ebullitions of ap proval, and the bowling of Mr. Roberts on the one side, and of Mr. Russell on the other, was of a high character. Indeed, in the second innings of the Dulwich, Mr. Roberts was almost untouchable. That it was most effective will be seen by a perusal of the scores. St. Mark's—First innings, 106 ; second inn ings, 29. St. George's—First innings, 68 ; second innings, 69. The St. George's thus were the winners by nine wickets. THE ELEVEN V. TWENTY-TWO ( . 01" THE ALBION, ISLINGTON).—For several years it has been the custom of this powerful Club to " wind up" the season with this match; and a good plan it is, notwithstanding there are those who condemn the playing with any excess of the regular number, and because it extends the interest of one match of the season at all events, to 33 instead of 22 of the members. Suppose the match were between two elevens only ; either the strength must be divided, or the second eleven would have no chance against their more gifted opponents. It is at all times advisable in all large clubs, and the Albion musters upwards of 100 members, to have at least one match in the year which shall take in as many as possible, inasmuch that it not only gives an interest and a zest in the game itself, but in the club, amongst an increased number of the members. Be yond this, too, it is a match which, in this and other clubs, is looked forward to from the commencement of each season with no small anxiety, and its pro spect encourages a second eleven men of the preceding year to practise hard, with the hope of becoming so valuable a player, as to make it a matter of necessity that the " first eleven" shall not be complete unless he form one of that body. Thus there is an advantage of no trifling consideration accomplished 1 such a match as the "First Eleven v. Twenty-two.' ' With this contest the season for several years has, in the Albion Club, been brought to its close, and accord ingly, on Wednesday last, there was a numerous muster on the Copenhagen ground to carry out the match, By an arrangement between the parties, eleven only of the twenty-two took the bat in the first instance. These gentlemen made 126 runs. Mr. Robinson told up 18, by a four, a three, a two, and the rest in ones. But the high scores were achieved by Mr. Batson and Mr. Bewsher, both of whom batted amazingly well. The former ran up a number amounting to 27, in two fours, a three, three twos, and ten singles; whereas the latter obtained 35, by means of one four, four threes, two twos, and fifteen ones. Mr. Garrett was " not out," with a score of four and three ones (seven in all) attached to his name. The eleven opened their hands with Mr. Price and Mr. Tildesley. The latter, after having made five singles, was caught by Paull, off the left-handed bowling of Mr. Bewsher. Mr. Thompson thereupon joined Mr. Price, and much admirable play followed. At length the same bowler reached the wicket of the latter gentleman, just as he had accomplished a score of nineteen, which was thus composed—three threes, three twos, and four ones. He was succeeded by Mr. Dewdney, and the fine play was resumed and carried on until the shades of evening gave notice that the game could not be continued, but that it was time to retire, to partake of the many good things which had been carefully provided for the closing dinner. At this period the score stood thus :—The twenty-two, 126 ; the eleven, 93. The eleven had thus lost four wickets for 93 runs. THE SPIRIT DUTIES. Doubts having arisen whether the Act 10th Vic toria, chap. 23, has reference to any other spirits than those enumerated in the table annexed to that Act, the Commissioners of the Customs have directed the principals of the department in London, and the col lectors and comptrollers of the revenue at the several ports throughout the United Kingdom, to be made acquainted, that the said Act must be deemed to have reference only to the spirits enumerated in the table attached to the Act alluded to. This is of much importance, a nd it will be useful to observe which spirits are those contained in the table annexed to the new Act. They comprise t he following : --spirits or strong waters—for every gallon of such spirits, or strong waters, of any strength not exceeding the strength of proof by Sykes' hydrometer, and so in proportion for any greater or less strength than the strength of proof; and for any greater or less qua n tity than a gallon ; viz.—spirits, or strong waters, the pro duce of any British possession in America, not being sweetened spirits, or spirits mixed with any article, so that the degree of strength thereof cannot be exa c tly as certained by such hydrometer; if imported into Eng land, the gallon Bs. 7d.; into Scotland, 4s. sd. ; into Ire land, 3s. sd. Rum, the produce of any British pos session, within the limits of the East India Company's charter, not being sw eetened spirits, or sp i r it s so mixed as aforesaid, in regard to which the conditions of the Act 4th Victoria, chap. 8, have or shall have been fulfilled ; if imported into England, Scotland, and Ireland, the same duties as before mentio ne d, respectively. Rum shrub, however sweetened, the produce of and imported from such possession s , in regard to which the conditions of the Act 4 Vi c toria, chap. 8, have or shall have been fulfilled, or th e pro duce of and imported from any British possession in America; if imported into England, Scotland, or Ireland, the same duties as before mentioned respec tively. It will be seen that by this Act, the duties on West India and East India colonial rums and rum shrubs are equalised ; the latter (East India) on con dition of the Act 4 Victoria, s chap. 8, being duly complied with, and that a reduction is made in favour of Scotland and Ireland, with a proviso, however, that when once duty is paid on the rum or shrub in those portions of the United Kingdom, they must be consumed therein, and not removed from thence under pain of forfeiture, ~~~ y CS. vooa' i
