This invaluable Medicine immediately relieves oughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Difficulty of Breathing, and Hus kiness in the Throat. These Drops are also the best preven tative that can be taken against spitting of blood and affection of the lungs. Persons troubled with Asthma are considerably relieved by taking a few doses of the Drops, as they tend to promote expectoration and remove viscid phlegm. For the speedy cure of the Hooping Cough they are no less efficacious. Those who are troubled with that unpleasant tickling in the throat which deprives them of rest night after night by the incessant cough which it provokes, will, by taking one dose, find immediate relief, and one Bottle, in most cases, will affect a cure.

LONDON AND MEDITERRANEAN STEAM SHIPPING COMPANY. EXPERIMENTAL TRIP. It has been known to scientific men and practical engineers for some time that a new principle has been developed and applied to marine engines. Its promoters have said that it is destined to revolutionise steam navi gation, and they have, it is understood, brought it with no want of success under the notice of Government. But they determined to wait for no official assistance. They went to work independently, fitted up the Thetis, a screw steamer of 355 tons register, with the new machinery, and plied with indubitable success between Glasgow and Liverpool. The Thetis has been chartered by the Lon don and Mediterranean Steam Navigation Company, and left the London Docks on Saturday morning, at eleven o'clock, on her.first long voyage. It may be as well, before detailing the performance of the ship down the river, to describe the new patented arrangement of marine machinery. Tke expense of; and difficulty in obtaining, fuel for steam-ships has long attracted the attention of the engineering world, and when a gentleman declares that by means of his inven tion a saving may be made of 75 to 80 per cent. of coal, his contrivance deserves some attention. The engines of the Thetis combine high and low pressure, the boilers strictly tubular and cellular, thus exposing a very small "rending," and at the same time an immense heating surface in a very limited space. The steam being worked highly expansively, is con densed by a surface condenser, and is returned to the boilers to be re-formed. The slight waste in working is supplied by a small and very efficient separate dis tilling apparatus. By this means care is taken that no salt water enters the boilers, consequently no deposit on or deterioration of surface eau take place, as in ordi nary engines. The steam in the surfize condenser is condensed in the interior of the tubes, whiell are kept quite free from deposit of earthy matter by the patentee Mr. J. Rowan's peculiar arrangements. The expansion and contraction of the tubes are also fully provided for, so that derangement from any of the causes which have hitherto impaired the efficiency of surface condensers is most oulikely—,almost impossible—to occur ; and if by any mishap it should do so, all the parts are most access ible, and the inconvenience 4 readily rectified. The machinery is the same with which all the eperiinentS were conducted, and has been altered anal 7P7..aker.ed until its sightliness is in some small degiee dimir nished. It can consequently be scarcely regarded as a fair specimen. The patentees intend that fituro ma chinery on this plan will present a like appearance with the usual engines to the ordinary observe'. There can, however, be no question of the efficiency of the present motive power, and although necessaril: obliged to propeefl but slowly down the river, its performance surprised and delighted all on board. The vessel is of 100 nominal horse power, and the consumption of coal at an actual working of about 2110-horse powe. fell con siderably short 3 cwt. per hour, very little snoke pro ceeded from the furnace, and the engines workoi Witheut the slightest jar, while the smooth action of thescrew was the subject of general remark. The pressura between London and Gravesend was from SO to 90 and very steady, At the same time that the Thetis left thi London Docks the Black Prince, also bound for Genoa and the Mediterranean ports, a screw vessel, of /early the same tonnage and of a similar horse power, vas hauled out of the St. Catherine Docks ; the sped of the vessels pas pretty much alike, now one a few yards ahead, now the ether ; each carried nearly the same amount of cargo; hilt kbe Prince was burring at least 12 or 14 cwt. per hour, While consumpfon of the Thetis was as above stated. liety,reek Erith and Gravesend the vessels were neck and neck, and gijot of the Black Prince, in endeavouring to 'shave the slinre," brought her into collision with a bag°, carried away* riaust, sail and all, as well as the pet side of her own mainyard; the shock nearly threw he on shore, and she brought up at Gravesend for repirs.

There has again been a complete inactivity in the Stock Exchange, and , consols have scarcely experienced the slightest variation. It has been difficult to find em ployment for . money in the discount market, and the general transactions have been below the flank mini- mum.

HIGH WATER, THIS DAY, AT LIVERPOOL. .7 - Inor, .height.mortNio IA.' Ul l . 17ft , -fin. • •• • —Lb. —ft. —in: WEDIYBSDAY, FEBRUAIIY 22, 1860: THE DAY'S NEWS. In the Hops) of ' l ords, last night, two bills were laid on th e table—the one - for the further fusion of law and equity, and the other to render unnecessary the plea of " not guilty." It appea red by a letter from our Charge d'Aff aires at Flo rence that lie had not attended 4 1 0' rPe e P ti°° of Signor Buoncompagni officially ; but that he had been present privately at one of them. It was made known that her Majesty had given her assent to the act amending the legislative council of Tasmania. Copies of the correspondence between the Earl of Elgin and the Earl of Mal mesbury, relatiye to the mission of the f `nmer to to 15 32 China, were moved for ; and, after some remarks from the Eitrl of Elgin and Lord Colchester, the subject dropped. In the House of Commons last night, after some formal preliminaries, Mr. Du Cane intro duced his resolution, that, at present, it was not expedient to diminish the ordinary revenue, and increase the Income-tax. He had no party object. These proposals, to which he objected, were based on an unnecessary and one-sided treaty, the adoption of which could only result in a permanent imposition of the Income-tax, or, perhaps, even in worse conse quences. He showed the inconsistency of the proposition by reference to Mr. Gladstone's former declarations against the Income-tax. The reduction of the wine duties was especially inop portune, owing to the present unfavourable con. ditten of Freneh wines, As to the cape4l of the paper duty, it ought not to be thought of as an equivalent for an increased income-tax. By quoting against various members of the Ministry their previous. professions Of opinion againtit the repeal of the Inver dotyi and the eon, tinuanee of the meanie-tax, he proved that they, above all others, ought to have refrained from making any such proposals. The inconsistency' of their doing so, was only to be accounted for by supposing that Ministers have, for the time tieing, sneemnbed to the influence of the Manchester Sehooi ; and the whole scheme might be truly designated a Manchester Budget. Inimical to really- free-trade and a fair reciprOcitY, it was likewise, emphatically, a Budget, not of peace, hut of war. The resolution was supported lay Lard Montague ; Mr, gossipy, Mr. Duff; Sir S. North eote, and Mr. Ayrton ; and it was opposed. by Mr. Leveson Gower, Mr. Liddell, Mr. Dodson, Mr. Baxter, Mr. Dawson, and Mr. Hennessy. The debate was adjourned till Thtirsday,-,Lord Palmerston expressing a hope that they would come to a division on that evening. The Conso lidated Fund Bill was passed; and some clauses of the Valuation of Rateable Property (Ireland) Bill passed through Committee. The arrival at this port of the 'Cunard steamer, from the United States, yesterday, has enabled us to furnish some few items of American intelli gence, in addition to the brief summary of news already given as a telegram from Queenstown. There is nothing, however, of much political or connnereial importance, The businesq of Congress was prqceeding regularly since the eiectiOn of Speaker had taken place. Considerable excite ment was arising on the subject of the appreaoh ing presidential election ; and, we NUppge, until that great event is over ; the country will be kept in ono continued ferment. The prospects of trade for the Spring, it will be found, are highly en couraging throughout the Republic. The French Emperor persists in his determina tion to put down all agitation on the Roman question. The Prefects are to' prohibit the distri bntion of writing's and pamphlets, unless duly authorised, 9414 459 tq report WIIPPMTI : the liherty of the pulpit is amused," Q i n the other hand, public meetings are being held, with the object of supporting the temporal rights of tile Pope, and petitions addressed to the Senatp'are adopted, praying it to interpose with the ciovern ment on behitlf of His Holiness. The Chancellor of the Excheqner continues, ap- Nrelltly, to be besieged by depiltationsrepresenting the various interests of the country which will be effected, more or less inconveniently or injuriously by his Budget. Among others, this week, the Irish linen manufacturers have made representa tions against the Tfrench duties on linens l the masters have remonstrated against the injury they fear-the Budget will inflict upon them; and . the licensed victuallers have reiterated their coin-; plaints as to the proposed invasion of their vested' rights, by the 'extension of the licensing :sys system ; the wine trade had a numerous meeting in London yesterday, on the proposed alcoholic test, and the drawback question,. as involved in the Budget arrangements. We would direct attention to the eloquent peroration to Lord Derby's speech, in the House of Lords, on Monday night, on the sulliect of the French treaty, which will be found ip another column. His lordship showed ycry forcibly, it will be seen, how indispensably necessary it is that the sanction of Parliament should be ' obtained to the treaty—not impliedly, but posi. tively and absolntely, by legislative enactment. The great body of the Conservatives had made up their mind to adopt this course. His lord ship spoke, however, before the decision of the House of Commons had been come to upon Mr. Disraeli's amendment. Still a full discussion of the treaty is promised: Lord Derby further declared, it will be observed, that while he objected to some articles of the treaty on their own merits, he was opposed to others not on their own merits, because he conceived that this was not the moment to enter into those stipulations ; and that, if it were, he considered the substitute they proposed to provide for the requisite revenue, —that i's, an increased Income-tax,--was most objectionable. It is admitted that the ministerial majority on Mr. Disraeli's amendment was no mere party triumph. Several Conservatives voted with Ministers, and several Liherills voted against them. As the IYmeii not untruly observes,—" In these days we look chiefly to the commercial aspect of a treaty, as the numerous meetings and deputations have testified lately"—adding, that " this suggests that the treaty is best discussed in a Committee on Customs, which, of course, will not preclude a full inquiry into the political aspect of the measure,"—to which, the hope is expressed, that " the House will now address itself in good earnest, and will not again be led by any will-o'-the wisp across the quagmire of a constitutional' (Ne4i.on.!' This, Ilqwoek, might have bo9n done qtjite as well, we humbly think— indeed, a great deal *ter— constitutionally or not. . _ Commerce and the Constitntion are both very important things. lint no good can ever nth* from one being allowed to over-ride the other. The Morning Herald well observes of the deci sion of the House of Commons on Monday night, that it was " only a question of procedure in the matter, and not of principle: The inquiry (adds our contemporary) is to come, and the advisability of extemporaneous conventions will meet a more full and determined discussion than it could have received upon such a motion as that of last night." There is no doubt of this. The Conservatives, too, differed . on the question of procedure ; but they will scarcely do so on the grcat principles• that have yet to be discussed, and decided upon. We p 1010- in 4 1 ?enier 9 011 1 11 14 an iTIM°O4TIt letter addressed, yesterday, by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to the Committee of Importers and others, of Mincing-lane, London, on the sub ject of the penny registration due, the ware housing charges, dock warrants, and contract notes. It will be observed that the Chancellor of the Exchequer makes special mention of the Liverpool deputation which waited upon him in regard to thesp ypit'nlijenfionahly foatu t ren nf pip new financial §chethe. TIrE "triumph of Ministers" in the House of Commons, on Monday night—as it has been so loudly trumpeted forth to be—: Was not one in v?l::ing principle, so much as privilege. Cer tainly it involved no principle of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER'S financial scheme ; 'but it did involye 4 qupstioi+ of cqrtstltiltional privilege, and one which' it is most lamentable to see sacrificed even to commercial legislation. The Liberal Star has very fairly stated the case, when it remarks, "A question of Parliamentary procedure was l made to' take precedence of a question r of fiscal policy. The Government was 140 t arraigned, upon upon a charge of sacrificing ci v e e r n i li ng t h e privi leges still graver charge of su rrel and oven abro , or the lions° Of C° -- 114 1 0 of Lords. The gating the rights a d the. were admitted to be very principles of Free-trade . of the Constitution good, but asserted to t.bhee principles deal better and older." view a of ' the . matter . we, in the main, With this Doubtless the principles of Free -trade are, c oncur. in themselves, and when rightly applied, " very g U p t, ;" but, most assuredly the prin c i p l es of tilQ Constitution, even were they not a good deal better and older," might 'level: to he sacrificed for the advancement of the principles of free-trade, • The constitutional mode of proceeding, as wiis's o ably shown by Mr. DisRAELI, was to Resent to the House, for its discassinn, in the first instance, the subsfall9P Of the Commercial 'treaty, and to present it, and have it discussed in tvvo character —both as a Treaty and as a Budget—but as a Treaty first, and then the Budget that is based upon it. And it was no answer to this argument, we humbly conceive, to maintain, as the CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did, that since times were changed, the mode of proceeding must be changed also. No change of times can ever alter the principles of the Constitution. There is a right way and a wrong of going about a. thing. There is a regular and an irregular mode of pro cedure. And surely it would have been better, on every account, that the right and the regular way should have been preferred to a wrong and an irregular course, Even if it were true, that three quarters of a century ago commercial treaties were regarded mainly in their political character, whereas now they are significant chiefly in a commercial aspect, there can be no argument in that circumstance, far violating constitutional preeeieiits, But the fact is, there is throughout the whole ministerial proceeding far too great a desire to prefer the commercial to the political importance of the question. Not that we would be under stood, by, any means, as in the slightest degree disparaging commerce. But, like everything else, it has its proper place ; and, all-important though it is to the prosperity and progress of this country, it can never be wise to sacrifice to it great constitutional principles. We have said commerce ; but it is not even commerce in 84 national point of view, SO 1111101 A as ,ruder that mere Manchester aspect in which it is so ex clusively regarded by the COBDENS and BRIGHTS. of the day,—the men under whose inspiration both the Treaty and the Budget have evidently been framed. "This city," observes QUO of our Manchester contemporaries of yesterday, "is by universal admission the prikilie of the commercial policy which receives so comprehensive an appli cation and derives so powerful an impetus from the proposals of the CHANcman of the EXCHE QUER. We are the trustees for free-trade prin ciples, 444 pledged to defend and propagate them by our solicitude for the maintenance of the poli tical reputation which we have won. We are bound, however, to the advocacy of the same ease by more material obligations. The doc trine on which the whole conception of the Bud, got is founded is, that the encouragement of in dustry is the surest method of pronaGting national prosperity. It mak es heavy sacrifices— an d aw, crifices in which we shall surely bear our part---_-: in reliance on obtaining abundant com.pensation in the extension of commerce. and the consequent development of nmnufactures." . Here have a confession that is at once candid and sugges tive. The Budget do m indeed make heavy sacrifices 1 14ncl our Manchester men may well he . content in hear their part in such sacri fices, "in . reliance on obtaining abundant com pensation." But will this be so with the great body of the people; will anything. like a majority of those who must be called upon to pay an in creased Income-tax, Lave any compensation whatever ? We more than doubt it. Let us film, however, from Manchester to Liverpool. Her great staple is, not manufactures, but shipping ; and see what one of the ablest ad vocates a the Budget, as a whole, says as to its operation as regards British shipping. " The abolition of the distinctive duties on goods im ported into France in English bottoms," observes the Saturday Review," ought to haVe been made an indispensable condition of the signature of the treaty. If the trade which Mr. GLADSTONE anticipates springs up between the opposite shores of the Channel, French vessels will nq only secure an rov4nt ve in their own ports, but they will be able, by carrying a freight both ways, to undersell their English rivals on the re turn voyage also. The consequent discontent will not be diminished when it is found that the same treaty secures to French vessels the facility of coaling as cheaply at Havre as at Southamp ton. The shipowners were greatly impeded in their recent agitation by the demonstrable jus tice of the laws which formed the main subject of their complaint ; but Mr. GLADSTONE and Mr. COBDEN, by reviving the system of reci procity, have done them the service of pro , viding them with a legitimate grievance." Now this " legitimate grievance " must, of course, be taken to imply injury and loss, tlii!! will be the grievance, so that the Shipping Interest, at any rate, vfkhilst bearing their part in the heavy sacrifices which the Budget will im pose, can have no reliance whatever on obtaining compensation for the same. We see, therefore, how much will be sacrificed to mere Manchester interests by the Treaty and the Budget; surely, then, under these circumstances, were there no other reasons, it would have been wise and pru_ dent to have considered first the Treaty, as that from which all the mischief will ipevitably pro ceed.

On the Nth of • June last, Russia reduced the duties on iron imported to an extent varying. between 12.50 and' 66.66 per cent. The dutylon rails coming by land, howeVer, was increased to the extent of 77.33 per cent. The Zollverein have made reductions on the import duties, to come into ope ration on the Ist January last, on citstor oil, 85 per cent.; indiaruhber plates, tallow, and pasteboard covers, 50 per cent.; dyed silk, also yarn of cotton, and silk, 27.28 per cent. ; whilst On ice, asphaltum, coal tar, and cement, the duty is entirely removed.
