MAN CHESTER, LINCOLN'S-INN, &c. MILNER'S " HOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe guard in the world against fire, robbery, and fraud ; 20,000 of them keep the books, deeds, and cash of the practical men of Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, &c., who know their superi ority to any others. Five of them have brought their contents unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in glask - ow alone this year, wherein scores of other safes h been burnt out. Twenty-five offices were burnt out in coln's-inn in January, i• one alone of which the title- ds of thirty large landed estates were burnt, which w d all have been preserved in Milner's Safes.

" Messrs. Milner and Son." In the numerous accidental fires and experimental tests which Milner's Safes hare been exposed to, every description of safe in use—fireproof (so called) or otherwise—have been burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the scientific and practical authorities who have tested them • and the Patentees, during seven years' active working of 'their patent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains nor cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete and secure depositories for books, documents, and valuables ; including the strongest wrought-iron safes and closets in the world, lined with their unequalled fire-resisting chambers. Out of upwards of 20,000 of their safes in use amongst the manufacturing and commercial houses in Great Britian—the class best able to appreciate their value—numerous eases •f severe trial in accidental fires have occurred, from which Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they are of opinion that no other safe than their own would have preserved its contents unburnt : Fire at Mr. J. B. Illaekaller's Ship Chandlery Store, Sperling street, Liverpool : a strong and fierce fire; safe most severely burnt outside ; contents unsinged. Fire at Messrs. J. and W. Walker's. the extensive builders, Birkenhead: buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in them including the contents of large iron safe and drawers, standing h.cide Milner's; the contents of Milner's uninjured, and in use now. Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane : a very strong fire; again the contents of Milner's sae the only things saved on the premises. Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth : a very extensive and destructive tire; a large iron safe, covered with brickwork, with double iron doors, burnt cut ; Milner's entirely preser ving its contents. Fire in Queen-street, Slasgow : a great number of safes and closets burnt out; no books saved throughout the buildings .excepting Messrs. S. R. and Thomas Brown's, in Milner's Safe.

FOREIGN. IMPORTANT FROM DRESDEN. By accounts from Dresden, of the 25th ult., it is learnt that the conclusion of the report regarding the composi tion of the Executive has been rejected, to the discom fiture of Prince Schwarzenberg, who, nevertheless, has yielded with a good grace, and professes still that Austria will remain united with Prussia. M. de Manteuffel, defending the rights of all the union states to give each a mature opinion on the proposals of the committees as well regarding the executive as the claims of Austria to enter with all her states, has carried an adjournment of 15 days, and Prince Schwarzenberg has returned to Vienna, and M. de Manteuffel to Berlin. The adoption of these resolutions is regarded in the light of a triumph for Prussian diplomacy. An important discussion is at present going on in the French Assembly. as to the grant for the support of the French army at Rome. Many members warmly oppose the grant. A riot, arising out of a freak of the populace, took place at Stockholm on the 17th ultimo. Military force was required to disperse the rioters, and forty arrests took . place. A letter from Switzerland, in the Gazette de Lyon, dated the 24th ult., states that a fresh collision had taken place between the Government troops and the Radicals at Interlachen. Several were wounded on both sides ; and the Radical rioters dispersed. Accounts from Cayenne to the 24th of January state that at the time the colony was plunged into great con sternation by the death of the Governor, Captain Maissin, from yellow fever. Although his ship, the Tartare, was still in quarantine. 18 sailors, all that remained alive out of a crew of 65, determined to follow the body of their beloved commander to the grave. THE CARNIVAL IN PARIS.—We read i❑ the Gazelle des - Tribunaux:—" M. G—, a superior employ‘ of a public administration, attended one of the recent masked balls at the opera, and while seated alone in a box was joined by an elegantly attired domino. Presently he got into conversation with her, and she was very polite. After a while she consented to accept a supper, and then took off her mask. The gentleman saw that she was young and beautiful, and demanded to be allowed to visit her, but she refused to give him her address, because she said she was married. She also forbade him to follow her. She, however, promised to write, and a few days after he received a letter, in which, after stating that her husband was absent, and that she was going to a ball the next evening at Bourget with one o f her female friends, she gave him permission to accompany her, and said that her friend would present him to the family by whom the ball was to be given, as a relatjve. The place of appoint ment she fixed at the corner of the Rue Laffitte, at eleven o'clock at night, and said she would he in a carriate At the tin gentleman charmer and e appointee, a carriage urove up, ULM t who was waiting, entered it, and found hi her trienc the gentleman got into such a delightful conversation that he did not notice the direction taken. All at once the carriage stopped, anC adies saying, place !' alighted.' The gentleman was surprised to see no house and to find himself in a deserted road, but before he could speak he was seized by three men masked, who . . • • .• • • nocked him dos They then took his watch and money, and even stripped him of his clothes, after which they and thewomqn entered the vehicle and drove rapidly off. Mr. G— wandered about some time, and at last found himself in the village of Bobigny. He knocked at the door of the house occu pied by the deputy mayor, and that person, on hearing his story, gave him hospitality. The deputy mayor also sent the gendarmes in search of the thieves; but, notwith standing all efforts, they have not yet been dicovered." COURT AND FASHION. Tne Marquis of Westminster has left Grosvenor-house, for Motcombe-park, Dorsetshire, until Easter. The Marchioness of Lansdowne is again suffering from indisposition. The Marchioness of Salisbury had a " reception" last night at the residence of the noble marquis in Arlington street. The Duke of Rutland is entertaining company at Bel voir Castle. His grace will receive visitors until the Croxton-park races, which are fixed to take place on the Ist of the ensuing month. The fisheries of the Isle of Man, particularly for cod, have been remarkably productive this season. In some cases 4d. per fish has been deemed a good price. THE BUDGET.—Numerously attended meetings in opposition to the proposition of the Chancellor of the Ex chequer with regard to the window-tax, and the other obnoxious propositions of the budget, were held on Mon day, in the parish of St. Luke and in the ward of Alders gate ; on Tuesday in St. Pancras and in the parishes of St. Margaret and St. John the Evangelist, Westminster; and on Wednesday, in the borough of Southwark and in St. Anne's, Westminster, at all of which resolutions depre cating the proposed measure were agreed to. MERCANTILE MARINE ACT.—A numerous meeting of shipowners, masters, and seamen, was held at Leith, on Monday evening, to take measures for petitioning against this act, Baillie Morrison in the chair. A. number of objections to different clauses of the act were discussed, and a committee was appointed to forward the petitions, which had been agreed to at a former meeting. It was suggested that if the petitions were rejected by the Queen, they should emigrate to the ljni;."Z; l . States or Brazil ? but anything like a strike was deprecated. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF A LADY.—On Friday, an inquest was held on the body of Mrs. Bramby, widow of Mr. Bramby, chemist, of Woolwich. It appeared that she and her mother lived together, and were in reduced circumstances, and on Tuesday evening the deceased, stating that she was going for a pill, took from a drawer a phial of prussic acid, which they had for flavouring cus tards, drank a portion of the contents, and died shortly afterwards. It was the opinion of a witness that she had not originally intended to take poison, but the fear of poverty induced a sudden impulse, which caused her to do so. HORRIBLE DEATH FROM STARVATION IN LONDON. —Last Friday, Mr. H. M. Wakley held a protracted in quiry touching the death of William Barton, engraver, aged 74, who died of starvation. The body, which lay on a heap of rags on the floor of a wretched ho el, at No. 4, Speedy-place, was completely shrunk, and presented the appearance of a parched and dried-up mummy. The de ceased, who was much reduced, had formerly moved in very high circles, and could not bear the idea of applying for parochial relief. On Saturday, Mrs. Barton went into a shop in the neighbourhood, and begged a farthing to put to a halfpenny to buy deceased half-a-pint of beer. She then confessed that, for the last fortnight, they had no food except a bit of bread soaked in beer. Deceased was a very well-educated man. The coroner remarked that it was awful that, in the nineteenth century, and amidst such wealth as abounded in the neighbourhood, and in which were so many charitable institutions, a fel low-creature should die of starvation. It was one of the most appalling cases he had encountered. The wretched wife of deceased had become idiotic; and, at the sugges tion of a gentleman present, measures were taken to pro cure her admission into the workhouse. The juryreturned, without hesitation, the following verdict :—" William Barton died from exhaustion, produced by the want of the common necessaries of life." The coroner and jury sub sequently raised a subscription towards meeting the immediate wants of the poor woman. A FAITHFUL. WITNESS.—In the House of Commons on Friday, Sir Robert Inglis, in replying to Sir James Gra ham said, that his right hon. friend did not deceive him self in stating that the great majority of the people of Great Britain were hostile to the papal aggression. He (Sir R. Inglis) trusted, therefore, that his noble friend (Lord J. Russell) and his right hon. friend (Sir J. Gra ham) would both well consider that even in this house they would not be able to carry on an administration which was founded upon the principle of tamely conceding to an aggression which be conceived to be characterised by as much audacity as could have been exhibited by the Church and Court of Rome in the worst times of Inno cent 111. or Gregory VII. (Hear, hear.) The people of this country would value more than any other sentence in the noble lord's speech that sentence wherein he stated that he retained, with unabated force. the feeling, the principle, and the opinion which had first induced him to bring forward his measure for repressing the papal ag gression. (Hear, hear.) Let his noble friend be fully persuaded of this fact, that the people of Great Britain would not be satisfied with any measure short of that which he had introduced, the feeling expressed out of doors being, not that it , nt too far at that, t „ might literally meet the precise case of aggression, it did not meet the real grievance, of which the papal brief and pastoral were only a part. (Hear, hear.) Without enter ing further into the subject, he (Sir R. Inglis) thought it was but justice to those who entertained opinions similar to his own, that some one should rise in that house and state what he believed to be the almost unanimous feeling of the great body of the people of England and Scotland, that in the vain attempt to satisfy the Roman Catholic portion of the people of Ireland they would alienate the affections of the people of England. (Hear, hear.) given to DINNER. TO ltiß. MACREALY.—A dinner was Mr. Macready, on Saturday, by his friends and adniirers on his retiring from the stage. It was in the first instance intended that the entertainments should have taken place in the London Tavern, but the applications for tickets were so numerous that it was found impossible to provide the requisite accommodation in that establishment. The Hall of Commerce was therefore engaged for the occasion, and the large number of additional tickets which that arrangement enabled the committee to issue were speedily taken up. With the exception of two brilliant stars in gas, having the ciphers " V." and " A." in the centre, the hall was destitute of any ornament. Upwards of 600 tickets were issued. By six o'clock every seat in the ball was occupied. Soon afterwards Mr. Macready, who was accompanied by the chairman, Sir E. Bulwer Lytton, and the members of the dinner committee. entered the ball, and was received with enthusiastic cheering. Among the noblemen and gentlemen" present were his Excellency the Chevalier Bunsen (the Prussian minister), M. Van do Weyer (the Belgian minister), the Marquis of Clanricarde, Lord Dufferin, Lord W. Graham, Lord Ernest Bruce, Sir C. L. Eastlake, P.R.A. ; Mr. C. Dickens, Sir E. Landseer, Captain Sir G. Back, Mr. C. Babbage, Mr. W. M. Thackeray, Sir R. Murchison, Mr. C. Kemble, Mr. J.

As soon as the Syrup Is rubbed on the Gums, the Child will be relieved, the Gums cooled, and the inflammation reduced. It is as innocent as efficacious, tending to prounce the Teeth with ease ; and so pleasant, that no Child will refuse to let its Gums be rubbed with it. When infants are at the age of four months, the Syrup should be rubbed on the Gums; and Parents should never be without the Syrup in the Nursery where there are T yo . ung children ; for if a Child wakes in the night with pains e Gums, the Syrup immediately gives ease; thereby nting Convulsions, Fe vers, B:c.—The great success o rs Medicine during the last Twenty-five Years has in unprincipled persons to imitate it, under the name o merican Soothing Syrup, and copying parts of Mrs. Joh n's Bills, &c.

(Signed) JOHN PITT CURE OF A BAD LEG OF MORE THAN SIXTY YEARS' STANDING Mr. Barker, of No. 5, Graham's-place, Drypool, near Hull, had ulcers on his leg from the age of 18 until upwards of 80; and although for many years he had sought the first advice in the country, nothing was found to cure them. He very often suffered most excruciating pain for long periods together, which incapacitated him from attending to his business. He bad given up all hopes of getting a cure, when at last lie was persuaded to try Holloway's Pills and Ointment, which he did, and, however wonderful it may appear, the leg was thoroughly healed by their means, and by continuing to use the Pills alone after his leg was well, be has become in health so hale and hearty as now to be more active than most men of fifty.

At the Macready banquet, on Saturday, at which Sit E. L. Bulwer took the chair, the talented performer, in reply to the toast of " Health, happiness, and long life to William Macready," which was drunk by the company upstanding, and was followed by rapturous cheers, which were renewed and continued for some moments, delivered an able reply. On rising, he was received with a fresh outburst of cheering and the waving of handkerchiefs. He said :—I rise to thank you, I should say to attempt to thank you, fa I feel the task is far beyond my power. What can I say in reply to all that the kindly feeling of my friend has dictated ? I have not theskill to arrange and dress in attractive language the thoughts that press upon me, and my incompetency may appear like a want of sen sibility to your kindness, for we are taught to believe that out of the heart's fulness the mouth speaks. But my diffi culty, let me assure you, is a contradiction to this moral. I have to thank my friend, your distinguished chairman, for proposing my health to you, and for the eloquence— may I not add the brilliant fancy ?—with which he has enriched and graced his subject. But that we may readily expect from him who in the wide and discursive range of dis genius touches nothing that he does not adorn. (Hear, and cheers.) T have to thank you for the cordiality and —if I may, without presumption, say so—the enthu siasm with which the compliment proposed has been received, and for the honour—never to be forgotten—that you have conferred on me by making me your guest to day. Never before have I been so oppressed with a sense of my deficiency as at this moment, looking on this assem blage of sympathising friends, crowded here to offer me the spontaneous testimony of their regard. I observe among you many who for years have been the encouraging companions of my course ; and there are present. too, those who have cheered my very earliest efforts. To all who have united in this crowning tribute, so far beyond my dues or expectations—to my old friends, the friends of many years, who welcomed me with hopeful greeting in the morning f my professional life, and to the younger ones, who now gather roLnd to shed more brightnesson my setting, 1 should wish .o "Turf° -th the abundant expression of my gratitude. You are not, I think aware of the full ex tent of my obligations to you. Independent of the substan tial benefits due to a liberal apprec - - my very position in society is de which your approbation has set ur Ition of my e rtions, stamp (cheers ;) let me unhe y affirm or Mot would not exchange the ateful pride of your any favour or advancement that the more privileged in station could receive. (Great cheering.) I really am ton much oppressed, to: much overcome, to attempt to detain you long; but with the reflect ion, and under the conviction, that our drama, the noblest in the world, car: never lose its place from our stage while the English language lasts, I will venture to express one parting hope—rat the Id the Hear. hear," and cheers.) to elevate their art, iat they wit ,nd also to mselves above distinction. by a 'faithful ministry to the genius of our incomparable Shakspeare.

"Deep the oak Must sink in stubborn ear r th its roots obscure That hopes to lift its branches to the sky." (Loud applause.) This, gentlemen, I can assure you, was the doctrine of our own Siddons and of the great Talma—(hear)—and this is the faith I have ever held as one of their humblest disciples. Of my dire:tion of the two patent theatres, on which my friend has so kindly dilated, I wish to say but little. The preamble of their patent recites, as a condition of their grant, that the theatres shall be instituted for the promotion of virtue, are the words. I can only say that it was my ambition, to the best of my ability, to obey that injunction (hear, hear, and cheers) ; and, believing in the principle that property has its duties as well as its rights, I conceived that the proprietors should have co-operated with me. (Loud cries of "hear.") They thought otherwise, and I was reluctantly compelled to relinquish, on disadvanta geous terms, my half-achieved enterprise. Others will take up this uncompleted work, and if inquiry were set on foot for one best qualified to undertake the task, I should seek him in the theatre which by eight years' labour he has, from the most degraded condition, raised high in public est spectability of his audiences, but by the learned and taste ful spirit of his productions. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I shall not detain you longer. All that I could desire, and far more than I ever could expect. you have confarred upon me in the honour you have done me to-day. It will be a memory that must remain as an actual possession to me and mine which nothing in life can take from us. The repetition of thanks add little to their force, and there fore, deeply as I am already obliges to you, I must draw still further on your indulgence. You have had faith in my zeal for your service; vou will, I am sure, continue that faith in my gratitude for the value you have set upon it.

The Earl of RODICH presented a number of petitions against the Papal aggres sion, and supported their prayer.—The Marquis of LANS DOWNE then stated that after the failure of three succes- sive schemes for constructing a new administration, her Majesty, after full and mature deliberation, and in con formity with the advice of the Duke of Wellington, had been pleased to command her late ministers to resume their office, and endeavour at least to carry on the busi ness of the country. Under these circumstances. they had no alteration but to obey the royal command.—The Duke of ARGYLE presented a petition from Glasgow in opposition to the Papal aggression, and assured their lordships that the people of Scotland were no less unani mous and decided in their disapprobation of the act of the Pope than the people of England.—Lord BROUGHAM presented a similar petition, but could not concur in its prayer. He implored the government not to legislate upon this subjtct at least at present, but to be content. with a resolution of both houses of parliament.—The Marquis of BREADALBANE maintained the necessity of efficient measures as a check to Papal encroachments.— The Earl of ABERDEEN agreed with Lord Brougham, chat the evil complained of would be only increased by legislative enactments, and recommended proceeding by resolution.—The house adjourned at six o'clock.

In early life he held a commission in a native regiment o the Hon. East India Company's service, and served unde General Popham, at the storming of Gwalior, in the year 1780. He was also present at the battle of Rawnuggar, and five other engagements in the same year. Having realised a fortune in India, he came to England in the year 1784, with a letter of introduction from Warren Hastings to William Pitt, by whom he was presented' to George 111. Shortly after his arrival in England he sud denly lost all he was worth by the failure of a banking establishment in Calcutta. In this extremity he first in troduced the system of shampooing and vapour baths as a curative mode of treatment. CONCOCTION AND TRANSMISSION OF THE QUEEN'S SPEECH.—Everybody knows that the " Queen's Speech" does not deserve its name. It is not the Queen's ; nor is it a speech ;—it is a document. The first minister subsequent cabinet counci s reduce i . . . and it is then submitted to her Majesty. When returned with her approval, the speech is divulged (at a ministerial dinner) to the non-cabinet members of the administra tion. Thus the mere topics of the manifesto ooze out at _ _ _ _ the clubs the night befiire the Speech is spoken. But it is the actual text which the public is eager for ; and, that no time may be lost, emissaries from the London evening papers appear at the Treasury about the time her Majesty is preparing her toilette at Buckingham Palace for the ceremony. The moment the first gun announces that the procession is in motion, the evening paper envoys are obliged with copies of the document; and before the Queen has done speaking in the house her words are in type. Formerly the gentlemen of the press were lcckcd in a room in the Treasury till the cortege was on its way back. Some time ago an escape was made from this offi cial durance, which caused some amusement. The editor of the government paper in Dublin was most anxious to start for Liverpool by one o'clock, to catch the packet for Dublin. The Speech was handed some time before that hour, and the key was turned as usual. Presently, how. ever, the clerks and messengers were alarmed by frantic cries of " Fire !" They opened the door—the room was his escape, leaving the frightened clerks to extinguish the harmless sheet of brown paper he had intentionally igni. ted. We, of the present day, improve on the Irish edi tor's plan. His was a fire escape ' • ours are lightning con ductors. It is at such a time as this that the wonders of the electric telegraph become startlingly apparent. The city of Edinburgh is about 400 miles from Buckingham Palace. While the state procession is wending its slow way back from Westminster the wires are charged, and — marvellous fact !—at the same moment that her Majesty is alighting at the steps of the Marble Hall, several of her lieges in the Scottish capital are beginning to read her Speech, which has taken no more than fifteen minutes to transmit. She dines at Windsor, and before the banquet is over, the text, verbatim et literatim, of what she had uttered at a quarter past two has reached Dublin. Before the Royal family has retired to rest the Speech is in every nrineintil town in the kingdom. In these cases there had been no anticipation, for the Speech was read off at the London Telegraph Station from the evening papers.— Diekeit's " Household Words." _ Rousseau was remarkably trite in conversation — not a word of fancy or eloquence warmed him. Milton was unsocial, and even irritable.
