STORES IN LONDON : GEO. WOOD and CO., 275, WAPPINO. DEAFNESS SURPRISING Cures are daily effected by a new and painless mode of treatment, without the slightest pain, inconvenience, or danger. — Arrival of Dr. Murray in Liverpool. HUGH MURRAY, M.D., M.R.C.S., Professor of Aural Surgery, and Physician Aurist to the Royal Infirmary, begs to inform sufferers from deafness, or those distressing noises in the head, that he will apply his new mode of treatment on patients, every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, from Eleven till Six, and Sundays from Two till Four, at his Resi dence, 27, Great George-squefe, Liverpool; Tuesdays, at Macclesfield; Fridays, at ckport ; Saturdays, Kendal and Lancaster, as per local pers.—On Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, the 15th, th, and 17th Dec. 36 persons were restored to their pe t hearing in one visit. Such a provi dential discovery nnot be too highly appreciated, as none need now desp • , however inveterate their case. All may be cured, and i most cases in one visit; while, in the most inveterate case, a perfect cure will be guaranteed in a few weeks. By this new and infallible method of restoring hearing, applicants are enabled, in many instances, to hear perfectly well in a few minutes. The great extent of Dr. Murray's prac tice, and his former connexion with the various institutions for the relief of deafness, enable him to assert that, under his treatment, failure in any case is next to impossible. During the last six months, Dr. M. has performed upwards of twelve thousand cures, many of whom had suffered deafness for many Years; others, born deaf, had never heard tine human voice, until enabled to do so by this truly wonderful discovered mode of treatment. PatienTiWnabl e to attend personally may state their case by letter, and will receive the means of cure per post. As Dr. Murray's professional engagements on the Continent will require his return to Paris early in the spring', those IN ho desire a speedy cure will please consult him immediately.

Eibtrpoot :-ztanbarb+ TUESDAY MORNING, FEB. 10, 1852. PROCEEDINGS IN PARLIAMENT. SINCE last we addressed our readexs, the Parlia ment of the United Kingdom has assembled ; and, in the thousands of churches throughout the land, prayers are again offered up for wisdom to be given to them in all their decisions. Unfortunately for themselves and the country, they cannot say that this is unnecessary ; for wisdom is often absent when noise and precipitancy are present, The fol lowing are a few of the topics most worthy of at tention. The common-places which distinguish a Royal Speech were never more characteristically displayed than on Tuesday last; when the usual quantity of matter was read with the usual grace, in a crowded and brilliant assembly, not one of whom was a whit the wiser for what he had heard. The followers of Sydney Smith may sneer at Lord John forhis courage in undertaking duties for which he is incompetent ; but let any one try to compose an oration, on which the eyes of all Europe will be fixed, without going beyond the limits of insipid and meaningless state ments, and he will find that no small amount of ability is requisite ; on the same principle, no doubt, as it requires a high grade of talent to enable any one to talk nonsense designedly. The friendly relations with foreign powers were stated generally, and the adjustment of the diffi culties respecting the tracts of Denmark on the German frontier, was quoted as a subject of con gratulation. No allusion was made to the note of preparation for war which has sounded throughout the land ; but the subject was freely discussed in both houses. Of the peaceful intentions of the French President, no one seems to entertain any doubt ; but there is no such certainty in reference to the people whom he "continues to govern." The Premier thinks that the newspapers have done much mischief by increasing the terror of an inva sion ; but the presence of faithful dogs to guard the flock, is one of the best means of teaching for bearance to the wolf. Respecting the un-aggressive disposition of England there can be no doubt ; and as the increase of our armaments is only a defen sive precaution, we hope it will not be in any sense offensive. Her Majesty's knowledge of geography includes the remote district of Caffre-land, though it was only in 1844 that Port Natal was utterly unknown to the officials of the London Custom-house. Measures have been taken for bringing the war to a close, but whether by treaty, purchase, retreat, or conquest, is not stated. The debates give us more onthis point. Tho nuke approves of all that has been done, in a military point of view, except the omission of making roads, for present and future intercourse. We cordially approve of the duke's views. The Cape district lies on the highway of the nations ; it is a halting-place to Australia, a feeder for India, a stepping-stone for America, and a depot for the civilization of the sable races of Africa. The man who saves it may have as little thanks as Sir George Rooke had when he took Gibraltar, in 1704 ; but posterity will appreciate his services, and exclaim, " What would we have done without it ?" As for roads, they were the Roman means of civilizing Britain ; they were one of Pastor Oberlin's means of removing the heathenism of the district in which his lot was cast; and they were far more powerful in taming the preda tory spirit of the Highlands in 1745, and subse quent years, than Cumberland's dragoons. Some Caffre chieftain, in the clacking dialect of his native " Karroo," will commemorate Sir Harry Smith in a transformation of this quizzical Highland couplet— " If you had seen these roads before they were made, You would lift up your hands and bless General Wade." Of the parliamentary reform bill which we are promised, we shall have much to say by and bye. It appears, however, that the long required subject of law reform is coming on us too, and to this visi tation we have no objection. Posterity will learn, with amazement, the abuses which England has tolerated for centuries, especially when property was thrown into the bottomless pit of Chancery. It is nothing to say that the lawyers have, in hun dreds of instances, eaten the oyster, and politely distributed a shell to each of the claimants ; gene rations of rightful owners have repeatedly died in penury, and the oracle has still called for ingots berore uttering its response. We rejoice, therefore, to see that the proceedings in the superior courts of law and equity are to undergo a thorough revi sion, and we are confident that none will regret the change but such as are likely to be professional losers. In matters of discipline, a pcena presens is always most valuable; in acts of kindness, bis dat qui cito dat ; and surely in law we may say with her Majesty, " nothing tends more to the peace, prosperity, and contentment of a country than the speedy and impartial administration of justice." The Palmerston mystery is at length fully revealed, but still " doctors disagree." It would appear that, in August last, the Premier and his colleague were not working well together, and therefore that the screw was tightened upon the latter in a special manner. He appears to have been dissatisfied with his position, and in no respect sorry to have a rupture with his superior officer ; at the same time he did not act with the necessary amount of prudence. The French Ambassador made too much of a private conversation, in his desire to strengthen the cause of his government at Paris; and although Lord Palmerston saw this, he did not throughout the whole correspondence, either with Lord Normanby or the Prime Minister, state with sufficient distinctness that the remark was really a private one, such as any one, ministerial or otherwise, might use. FAILURES.—Failures, arising out of the recent depres sion in the produce markets, appear still to take place in various parts of the country. The stoppage of a Liver pool firm, Messrs. M. J. Wilson and Co., occurred on Saturday, and during the present week the draughts of Messrs. Foxall and Co., of Dublin, a large house in the East India trade, have been returned.—Yettierdoy'B Time*. EFFECT OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL TITLES' BILL. IN the debate on the Queen's Speech, a point was cleverly raised by the member for Buckingham shire. He contrasted, in his usual brilliant man ner, the earnest feelings with which parlaiment had met last year, and their tameness now; the enthu siasm of the people then, and their present apathy ; Lord John's thrilling statements in his letter to the Bishop of Durham, and his omission of the subject of the aggression from the official speech. He added, that though he had voted for it, as the only measure on the subject which was likely to be car ried through, he had condemned it then, and . he would condemn it now, as wholly inadequate to the occasion which called it forth. Lord John, in commenting on the various points alluded to by Mr. D'lsraeli, and replying to them, could not admit that the act had been ineffective ; and added that, in conversation with Sir William Somerville, he had distinctly put the question whether he thought the act had been really violated, and had received a distinct reply in the negative. To some the reply of the Irish secretary will be incomprehensible, for they will think with Mr. D'lsraeli, that the act was treated with profound contempt, especially in Ireland, and that the pro hibited titles are currently assumed. Whatever we may think of the adequacy of the enactment, our own opinion is, that Mr. D'lsraeli over-estimates the facts. There are those who think that where there is much talk there must be much virtue, and that silence is indicative of weakness or indifference ; but our brethren on the one side of the channel should correct the former impression for us, and the cardinal does not now require to be told that the latter is incorrect. It is true that a great boast ing was made of the indifference of certain gentle men to the Titles' Bill ; but this was simply the suggestion of personal vanity, which would not let the community see the depth of the wound. Of the ineffectual nature of the measure let the deter mined conspiracies of the " brass band" speak ; the Defence Association ; the malevolent invectives at party gatherings ; the wailings of Dr. Ryan, of Limerick ; and the caution of my lord cardinal before the parliamentary committee. These are satisfactory evidences that the bill has done its work to a degree ; that, in short, it has been " a heavy blow and great discouragement" to the aggressors The parading of the titles is a matter of easy explanation. The Roman Catholic bishops and archbishops do not assume them ; their own fol lowers merely give them. An educated man will not call himself an esquire if he be not so by law, but he permits, indeed could not prevent, his well meaning friends from applying to him that courtesy designation. If he were prosecuted for using the title, he might retort by asking for such a signature of his to be produced ; and this we apprehend is the real position of the Popish hierarchy. There is reason to believe, however, that they not only permit, but encourage the deception; and though actually avoiding such a personal assumption as would commit them under the provisions of the act, they smile at the newspaper writers who mis quote their signatures, and thus encourage a prac tical falsehood. We will say nothing of the dignity or self-respect of the man who can strut in borrowed plumes, like the jay in peacock's feathers ; and who, desiring to invalidate an act of parliament, lacks moral courage to try his hand. The Scottish bishops, though retaining their ecclesiastical status as the Roman Catholic bishops do, have no autho rity to assume to themselves lordly titles ; and we remember the pleasure with which we heard, several your', ago, of oLa of the right reverend fathers, who was in London, and who corrected the Iron Duke at his own table, in Apsley House, when, either through inadvertency or courtesy, the latter ad dressed him as " my lord." PUBLIC LIBRARY AND MUSEUM. THE Library and Museum Committee have not been much before the public of late, but their work is progressing silently and successfully. Already they have made a first selection of books, to the extent of between 2,000 and 3,000 volumes; a catalogue of them is printed, and tenders for their supply have been called for by advertisement. The selection of other sets is going forward ; and a binder has been appointed to put every volume into perfect order. But, very contrary to the usual experience of such institutions, the building is found to be quite insufficient in accommodation before it is opened ; and arrangements are in pro gress for covering in the whole of the disposable area, so as to make it as suitable as possible at once. The Library and Museum Committee are certainly working well, though composed of some what heterogeneous materials ; and they have succeeded in doing what many other committees do not attempt—they have not only carried the public with them, but increased their interest. We have just seen the draft of a Bill to be pro posed in Parliament this session, after the approval of our local Town Council has been secured. It consists of 21 sections, the first six of which em- body the general principles already recognised, the next ten refer to the Derby Museum, and the con cluding five notice matters of detail. Of course this document has no official force at present, but it is gratifying to notice two provisions which show that the framers were fully alive to the interests of the public. One is, that the Council take power to add to this Committee, as members of it, gen tlemen unconnected with the Council, but who may be eminent in some department of literature or science. This arrangement exhibits both sound sense and good policy; and if ever the subject of the transfer of the Royal Institution should again be proposed, it will cut away what has hitherto been an acknowledged difficulty. The other pro vision is, that the Council may provide lecture rooms, and establish lectures on subjects of science and art—thus at once turning their collection to valuable account. This is no more than fulfilling the intentions expressed in the bequest of the late Earl of Derby, who was desirous that his magnifi cent collection should be a means of education — not a thing to be gazed at by stupid starers merely. The fact that Liverpool is one of the first towns to make practical use of its collections, by lectures on antiquity, painting, natural history, &c., will go far to change the reputation which unfortunately it has hitherto possessed, for its comparative oversight of intellectual matters. THE MAYOR AND ST. CHRYSOSTOM'S CH uRe ft, EVIRTON.—The Worshipful the Mayor of Liverpool has been pleased to make a donation of £25 in aid of the funds now being raised for the erection of the new church in Evertors. We are requested to state that the amount at present subscribed towards this charitable purpose is £2,564 14s. 5d., of which about £2,000 have already been realised and written to the credit of the Mill Road Church. As £5OOO was the sum originally required for the building and endowment of this large church, with 600 free sit tings, it would appear that rather more than half of the total cost has been already provided. The undertaking was commenced in March last ; and we believe that some of its supporters are sanguine with the hope that it may be completed, and the church opened for public worship, by March, 1853. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. LONDON, MONDAY EVENING. At Bow-street Police-office, to-day, Feargus O'Connor, M.P., was sentenced to seven days' imprisonment for assaulting a policeman at the Lyceum Theatre, on Satur day evening. Mr. O'Connor denied the charge. The Globe says it has strong grounds for not holding him Just now responsible for his acts. Medical, more than penal control is, perhaps, required. He has no relations in town. GREENWICH El.ECTlON.—Nomination this day. Can. didates Admiral Houston Stewart and Montazue Cham bers, Queen's Counsel. Show of hands for Mr. Chambers. Poll to-morrow. ENGINEERS' STRIKE.—ThiS morning, at six o'clock, the doors of .Mau , !sley's factory. Lambeth, were thrown open. Up to twelve o'clock, no less than four hundred men had entered, and signed the document prepared ac cording to the masters' resolutions. PARIS, SUNDAY.—Some modification of the decrees respecting the Orleans property is still considered proba ble. Fives, 102 70. SPAIN.—A. telegraphic despatch dated Madrid, 7th inst., states that on the afternoon of that day, at a quarter past one, the criminal who made the attempt on the life of the Queen of Spain wP.s executed. The Queen's health was improving. HOUSE OF LORDS-YESTERDAY The Marquis of LA NSDOWN E stated, in reply toLordßronghanr, that he believed a notice upon the subject of a measure extend ing• the principle of the Law of Evidence Amendment Bill, so as to provide for the personal examination of members of Par liament with a view to the prevention of bribery, would be given in the house this (Tuesday) evening. —A motion for the second reading of the Common Law Amendment Bill was then agreed to.—Lord LYNDHURST complained of the failure of the Patent Law Amendment and other Bids, in consequence of the numerous alterations made in them at a late period of the session in the other house.—A discussion followed upon the subject ; after which the matter dropped, and their lordships adjourned at a quarter past six o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS-YESTERDAY. The Speaker took the chair at a quarter to four o'clock. Very few petitions were presented on the subject of reform. Mr. ANSTEY gave notice of a question of the government respecting the expulsion of foreigners from the Austrian ter ritories. Sir F. BARING ; in reply to a question from Lord Naas, stated that a correspondence bad taken place between the Admiralty and the admiral commanding at Plymouth, Sir J. Ommaney, relative to the Amazon, and if the noble lord moved for it, there would be no objection to its production. Lord NAAs therefore gave notice of his intention to move. The SPEAKER acquainted the house that he had received a letter from the magistrate at Bow-street, informing him that Mr. Feargus O'Connor had been brought up at that court, and committed to prison for seven days for assaulting the police. THE NEW REFORM BILL Lord J. RUSSELL rose at five minutes past five o'clock, and moved for leave to bring in a bill to extend the right of voting, and to amend the representation of the people in that house. The noble lord commenced his speech by expressing his con viction that the present was a proper time for the intro duction of such a subject. In any measure of this sort, we must always bear in mind that the great object was to secure good government as well as a fair representation of the people. The noble lord then rapidly reviewed the different measures - proposed for parliamentary reform, commencing with that of Mr. Pitt in 1781—which was supported by Fox down to his own hill of 1831, which became law in 1832. Under that measure he observed that it had been found necessary to ascertain the boundaries of the boroughs. That bill went on the basis of the smallest boroughs, and the limited amount of the franchise; but in that plan he did not go to the extent of saying that those boroughs which were merely small should cease to return members. In counties and large cities it would be impos sible to say that the people were really represented. (Hear, hear.) He held, therefore, that it would be extremely unwise to adopt this system ; but he should propose to disenfranchise boroughs in any cases of proved corruption, and by another bill which would be subsequently introduced, he should propose to make considerable changes in the mode of inquiring into cases of corruption. (Hear, hear.) Upon an address from the house, it should be in the power of the crown to appoint a commission, which com mission should resort to the borough, and have the same means of inquiring which had been lately exercised at St. Albans. It would then be in the power of the house to enfranchise large towns, and to give to the rising seats of manufacture and commerce additional members ; for instance, it would be in the power of the house to say that the seats vacant for Sudbury should he filled by one member each for BIRKENHEAD and Birmingham. As to the franchise, he proposed it should be enjoyed by all householders rated at five instead of ten pounds, as at present. He considered that this might he done with perfect safety, and that thereby a large addition may be made to the constituency; as to counties, that persons holding occupations rated at twenty pounds should have the right to vote. How far this would extend the right of voting he was unable to say; but he conceived that thosewho were qualified to serve on jurieswere:qualified to vote; as to copyholders and leaseholders, he proposed the suffrage should be reduced from .elO to _fs a-year in direct taxes; he proposed they should have the right of voting—this would introduce a class of voters who are well qualified by position and education to hold the franchise, but who did not happen to possess the right in any other way. He had expressed an opinion in favour of retaining small boroughs; but to increase the constituency in them by the addition of neigh bouring places. When the Reform Bill was passed, it was intended that no boroughs should possess fewer than three hundred electors ; but he now found that there were fourteen small boroughs with less than three hundred electors ; thirty four with less than four hundred; and twenty-four with less than five hundred. It would be, therefore, proposed to add the neighbouring places to all boroughs which had less than 500 electors. The number of boroughs to which this would apply was sixty-seven. They were situated princirally in the south and the west, in the agricultural rather than the manu facturing parts of the country. It followed, therefore, that the balance which was established at the time of the Reform Bill between the agricultural and the manufacturing interests would be maintained. He further proposed to abolish the Property Qualifications for members for England and Ireland (hear). At the same time, he should propose an alteration in the form of the oath to be taken by members. There would be one simple oath for all members, which all parties might take alike, of al legiance to the Throne and fidelity to the Constitution ; and he need not say that from this oath would be omitted the words t fa" - f aC' " I . " :rue faith of a ~hristian.• .t wonld be such an oath that all parties could take. Another alteration lie should propose was, that when any member of the Government changed in his office openly, he should not be obliged to appear before his consti tuents for re-election, though such necessity should still exist on his first taking office under the Crown. Such were the alte rations he intended to propose, and he would also mention that measures of a corresponding nature would be introduced at a future period with regard to Scotland and Ireland; but he should say with regard to the Irish bill, that it would not be proposed by him to make any alteration in the county franchise, but that it was intended to propose that the franchise for towns and cities should be reduced from to The noble lord then added some concluding observations, in the course of which he stated that the next session the Government would introduce a measure for the education of the people. The noble lord sat down at 20 minutes past 6 o'clock, amid loud cheers. — Mr. HUME complained of the omission of the ballot from the noble lord's proposition.—Sir J. WALSH censured Lord John Russell for re-opening the question of reform, and unsettling the institutions of the country, when it was not demanded or desired by the country.—Mr. H. BERKELEY said that he should endeavour, in the progress of the bill, to introduce into it a clause, for giving to the voters the necessary protection of the ballot.—Mr. HOWARD spoke briefly in favour of the extension of the suffrage.—Sir It. H. INoms protested against the perpetual tinkering of the English constitution, by repeated measures of reform ; and especially objected to the mixing up of the religious question of Jewish disabilities with the merely political question involved in the bill.—Mr. BRIGHT, while he considered the measure in many respects very defec tive, admitted that many portions of it would give general satisfaction. Its great fault was the omission of the protection of the ballot, which he considered the noble lord was, in justice both to employers and employed, bound to give, if he conferred any large extension of the suffrage.—Mr. BAILLIE claimed for the people of Ireland and Scotland such an extension of the franchise as would give them an equal and proportionate poli tical power with that enjoyed by the people of England.—Mr. C. B. RoctiE urged the necessity of a thorough reform in the representation of Ireland.—After a few words from Mr. NEW DEGATE and Mr. TRELAWNEY, Sir J. WALMSLEY expressed his disappointment with the measure, which he declared was totally unworthy of the house and of the noble lord who had introduced it.—ln answer to a question, Lord J. RUSSELL said that he would lay the bill upon the table on Thursday next, and proposed to move the second reading on Friday fort night.—Sir H. VANCE, Mr. AUSTEN, Slr J. TYRREL, and Colonel SIBTHORP, having spoken, Mr. DISRAELI pressed the noble lord to give the house and the country a lo iger period for the consideration of so important a measure. H did not see that the bill would materially disturb the ex icing balance of parties, but thought that the present was not a proper time for its introduction.—Sir G. GREY and Sir B. HALL deprecated any delay in the second reading.—After some remarks from Lord Newport, Lord D. Stuart, Mr. J. O'Connell, and other members, leave was given to bring in the bill, and the house adjourned at 25 minutes past 10.

No mistake can:be more injurious than the supposition that neglect in this particular can continue with impunity. The seeds of strength or weakness are laid its the nursery ; and the majority of the fine flowing ringlets, or bald beads of after years, are traceable to this early period.— OLDRIDGE'S BALM OF COLUMBIA, long celebrated for its genial and invigorating qualities in promoting anti restoring the growth of the hair, is peculiarly fitted for application dur ing the tender years of infancy and childhood; and no nursery or school, where personal advantages are held in any estima tion, should be without it. For Cleansing the Hrr;r the Bairn is most valuable, as it effects this essential object on the first application, and immediately removes the scurf. For Embel lishing the Hair the Balm is prei'minent. A smooth, rich, and beautiful appearance, with a gentle waive, or glossy ringlets, full, luxuriant, and graceful, being the admirable results of its use.—Sold by all respectable Chemists, Perfumers, and Sta tioners.
