PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS.

THE business of legislation is now progressing with
railroad speed through the House of Commons, as
though the members had become wearied with their
own long and useless speeches, and were at length
desirous of bringing the session to a close. After
wasting about six months, in doing what may be
called literally nothing, but discussing abstract propo-
sitions and impracticable projects, they have at length
discovered, that it would be as well to have something
to show, as the result of their labours ; and accord-
ingly a number of Bills are being hurried through the
several stages required by the forms of Parliament,
without much regard to their consistency, or even
their grammatical construction. This is a vicious
system, which is year by year increasing, and for
which there appears no adequate remedy, until we
have a really strong Government with sufficient moral
courage to compel attention to important measures
at an earlier period of the session, and firmly resist
those repeated adjournments, by which so many Bills
are postponed, until deliberation is altogether out of
the question. It is, indeed, difficult to tell which
course is the most productive of mischievous results,
the purposeless discussions of the greater part of the
session, or the hasty and careless legislation by which
Bills are hurried to maturity at the close. The mem-
bers become wearied by long sittings, until at length
but few are left to take part in the business, and then
Bills which may have a serious influence on the com-
munity are passed, and sent up to the Lords, who
must either reject them or agree to them as they are,
from their utter inability to pay any attention to the
details. It is such a course of proceeding which renders
necessary so many acts to amend and explain former
acts, until the Statute Book becomes a mass of confu-
sion, and laws intended to effect one object are decided
by learned judges to enact the direct contrary.
There was a time, and that not many years since,
wlien Dills sent up from the IHOIISe of 6,inunms were
rendered most efficient, through the care which was
bestowed on their construction in the House of Lords :
and this was not to be wondered at, considering the
many able and experienced lawyers who transacted
most of the business of legislation there. All this,
however, has been rendered impracticable through the
majority of Bills being left to the very end of the
Session, so that barely time is afforded for the neces-
sary forms to be gone through, without a possibility
of deliberation.

CONSEQUENCES OF NEGLECT.—There is, perhaps, no part
of the body that ought to be more interesting to us than the teeth,
and yet there is. also none which is more generally neglected.
Were a little ordinary attention devoted to these organs, we should
no longer find tooth-ache and other diseases of the mouth so pre-
valent ; nor Would our senses be affected by offensive breath and
similar disagreeable concomitants. Art, however, is here neces-
sary to assist nature and in such cases it is that Rowlands'
Odonto becomes peculiarly advantageous as an infallible preserva-
tive of those indispensable attributes of beauty, the teeth and
gums, in balmy fragrance, freshness, and beauty.—See adv.

THE LATE LORD RAGLAN.

The following general order, with reference to the late Lord
Raglan, has been issued :
HORSE GUARDS, July 4, 1855.
The General Commanding in Chief has received Her
Majesty's most gracious commands to express to the army the
deep regret with which Her Majesty has to deplore the loss of
a most defoted and able officer, by the death of Field-Marshal
Lord Raglan, the Commander of the Forces in the Crimea.
Her Majesty has been pleased to command that her senti-
ments shall be communicated to the army, in order that the
military career of so illustrious an officer shall be recorded,
not only as an honourable testimony of Her Majesty's sense
of his eminent services, and the respect due to his memory,
but as an example worthy of imitation by all ranks of her army.
Selected by the Duke of Wellington to be his military se-
cretary and aide-de-camp, he took part, nearly 50 years ago, in
all the military achievements of our greatest commander.
From him Lord Raglan adopted as the guiding principle of
his life a constant undeviating obedience to the call of duty.
During a long peace, his life was most usefully employed in
those unwearied attentions to the interests and welfare of the
army, shown by the kindness, the impartiality, and justice
with which he transacted all his duties.
When war broke out last year, he was selected by his
sovereign to take the command of the army proceeding to the
East : he never hesitated, he obeyed the summons, although
he had reached an age when an officer may be disposed to
retire from active duties in the field.
At the head of the troops during the arduous operations of
the campaign he resumed the early habits of his life; by his
calmness in the hottest moments of battle, and by his quick
perception in taking advantage of the ground or the move-
ments of the enemy he won the confidence of his army, and
performed great and brilliant services.
In the midst of a winter's campaign, in a severe climate,
and surrounded by difficulties, he never despaired.
The heroic army, whose fortitude amidst the severest priva-
tions is recognized by her Majesty as beyond all praise, have

RECRUITING .FOR THE ARMY.

THE check which was given to recruiting for the
army, by the many harrowing details which were pub-
lished of the sufferings and privations endured by the
army in the Crimea through the winter, has never been
thoroughly got over. When the war broke out, and
a call was made for men to serve against the Russians,
the spirit of enthusiasm knew no bounds, and the
difficulty experienced by those engaged in recruiting
referred more to selecting the best men among the
numerous applicants than in inducing men to offer
their services. Even when the news arrived of the
great victory at Alma, and subsequently at Balaklava
and Inkerman, the long lists of killed and wounded
seemed to operate rather as stimulants than other-
wise, and applicants for admission to the army were
more numerous than ever. When, however, it became
known that, through official mismanagement, our
soldiers were subject to dangers not inflicted by the
enemy, and that more perished from such causes than
those who fell in the battle-field, the desire for enlist-
ing rapidly diminished. The risk of death had to be
encountered with little probability of military glory,
and those who hesitated not to meet it at the hand of
the enemy, shrank from the encounter with cold,
hunger, and neglect. Since then recruiting has been

in some measure promoted by increasing from time to
time the amount of bounty, but it has not reached the
requirements of the service, and more men are still
wanted to render efficient the many regiments reduced
to skeletons. In order to attain this object, Lord
PANUIIRE, the Minister of War, announced, a short
time since, that the Government had resolved to give
double pay, or an additional shilling a day, to every
private soldier actually serving, to commence from the
time of his landing in the Crimea. The extra money
was not, however, to be paid to him, but invested in
the Savings' Bank, for his benefit, until the conclusion
of his tervice, or 'be paid to his representatives in the
event of his death. It has, however, been judged, on
subsequent consideration, that this prospective advan-
,tage, would not be .suffieiently appreciated, and a mo-

CERTIFICATE FROM DR. GA.TTIKER.—The renowned Dr.
Gattiker, of Zurich, has effected the most successful cure of can-
cer of the stomach without medicine ; the learned Dr. writes as
follows :—Zurich, 3rd Sep., 1853.-3 have tried Du Barry's Reva-
lenta Arabica for a complaint which has hitherto resisted all other
remedies—viz.: Cancer of the Stomach ; and I ham nappy to say
with the most successful result. This soothing remedy has the
effect not only of arresting the vomiting, which is so fearfully dis-
tressing in cancer of the stomach, but also of restoring perfect
digestion and assimilation. The same satisfactory influence of
this exceltent remedy I have found in all complaints of the diges-
tive organs ; it has also proved effectual in a most obstinate case
of flatulence and colic of many years standing. I look upon this
delicious food as the most excel ent restorative gift of nature—Dr.
Gattiker. More ample details about this valuable discovery than

patronised by Royalty and the most distinguished Families in
different parts of the world. During the last four years their ex-
traordinary efficacy has astonished thousands.
The Hair Restored, Baldness and Greyness Prevented by
BEETHAM'S CAPILLARY FLUID. The frilly wonderful effi-
cacy of this unique preparation is the them? of admiration where-
ver introduced. It effectually prevents the hair falling off or
turning grey, promotes its growth on places that have been bald
for years, strengthens weak and fine hair, and gradually restores
its natural colour, without the use of dye. It cleanses the head
from scurf, and imparts a beautiful transparent, glossy appear-
ance, and keeps it in any desired form. In inducing the growth
of whiskers, eyebrows, mustachios, its effect is surprising.—

EASE AND COMFORT IN WALKING.— BERTH ANPS
CORN AND BUNION PLASTER.—This most important dis-
covery causes the greatest delight and astonishment wherever
it is introduced. Its effect, to use the words of numerous corres-
pondents, is truly miraculous ; the most inveterate Corns,
Bunions, and those unsightly and painful enlargements of the
GREAT TOE JOINTS, which disfigure the beautiful symmetry of
thefoot, have been immediately relieved from all pain and uneasi-
ness, and in a short time entirely disappeared, after twenty
years' suffering. Unexceptionable references are allowed to be
given to individuals in almost every part of the United Kingdom.
—Sold in packets, 1 s.; boxes, Os. 6d. ; which will be sent free
to any part of the United Kingdom on the receipt of 14 or 34
postage stamps, by Mr. BEETHAM, Cheltenham, or any of his
Agents.
For removing Superfluous Hair, BEETHAM'S VEGETABLE
EXTRACT is the only article ever discovered which does not
cause pain or injury to the skin. Numerous worthless articles
are introduced, containing the most deadly poisons, and unfit to
be applied to the human body;_ many of them remove the skin,
and produce dangerous wounds. The effect of this extract Is

I_IVERPOOL DISPENSARIES.—The
Committee of the Liverpool Dispensaries beg to acknow-
ledge the 'following Donations towards liquidating the present
heavy Debt of the Charity, and earnestly to APPEAL to the
Public for support. In consequence of Cholera of a most virulent
and fatal character having visited the town last year, the opera-
tions of the Institution were most arduous and extensive. The
number of cases attended and supplied with Medicine were 40,732,
exceeding those of the previous year by 5,318. From various
causes the expenses were unavoidably augmented, whilst, concur-
rently with the increased expenditure, and the debt remaining
from the previous year, the income suffered dimination to the
extent of upwards of £6OO. New SUBSCRIPTIONS are urgently
solicited, as the present amount falls considerably short of the
annual expenditure. If this inadequate support and pressure of
debt be suffered to continue, there will be no alternative but to
limit the operations of the Charity. The Committee earnestly
hope that an Institution which has been in existence nearly eighty
years, and which affords aid annually to thousands of the suffer-
ing poor, thereby arresting misery and disease to a vast extent,
will plead eloquently in its behalf, and be responded to by their
fellow-townsmen with ready sympathy and support.

TIMBER.---Messrs. HOLME, SLATER, and CROOK, in
their monthly circular, say :---

The arrivals from British North America, containing
Timber, into the docks of the Mersey, during the month, are
—ll vessels, 8,789 tons, against 19 vessels, 14,761 tons, for
the corresponding period last year. The consumption has
been greater than was expected, especially of Spruce Deals ;
and the import having beerkmuch less than last year, an im-
provement in price has been the result, which will only be
maintained by a short import. The auction sales during the
month have been well attended, and considerable quantities
disposed of. Of Baltic Timber, the arrivals during the month
are 10 vessels, 3,154 tons, against 8 vessels, 2,721 tons, for the
corresponding period last year. A cargo of Memel, one-third
first middling, and two-thirds second, sold at ls. 7d. per foot ;
by auction, two cargoes of Dantzic Whitewood sold at from
131 d. to 13p. per foot.

,EMENT TO THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

organ discourse most eloquent music, complains of having been
treated, by those who had engaged his services, as an artist
oughtnot to be treated; and the first time the owners of the
instrument send their bellows to mend, they had better send
their manners to undergo a similar reparatory operation.
Not satisfied with Mr. Best's scholarly exhibition of the varied
powers of the grand organ, by the performance of a series of
compositions to visitors who listen, the directors of the estab-
lishment call upon a gentleman and a musician to " play the
people out." He is to acccompany the shuffling of feet, the
racing down stairs, the calls of parties to " keep together,"
the requests " not to shove," the squabble for canes, parasols,
and umbrellas, and the recitative in which cabs are summoned
to the door. And when the last lounger is out, the gentleman
and musician may leave off. But this is not all. The direction
is good enough to select a composition fit to be applied to this
noble art-purpose—and they select Mendelssohn's " Bridal
Chorus," which, as everybody knows, is just the thing to be
trampled to pieces by a crowd of wearied sight-seers, anxious
to escape. If the directors could get a Raphael, they
would, in the same spirit, lay it down as a door-mat,
for the greater luxury of their departing patrons. Mr.
Best, having in vain remonstrated against the vulgarity,
very properly resigns. He will not desecrate Mendelssohn,
and "play the people out." If the Panopticon people conduct
all their arrangements in this fashion, and without regard to
what is due to art, the public, which soon comprehends such
things, will discover it. And then the next organist will have
a very much harder task to attempt than "playing people
out," namely, that of "playing them in." The directors have
got a Novum Organum, and a noble one, but they need not,
therefore, behave like fat Bacons.

prompts him to soar above the mediocrity which characterises
modern representation, where seats are sought to found a
trade or ephemeralise a speculation, can have his objects pro-
moted by one who is qualified, by Parliamentary experience
and education, to direct the preliminary studies to such high
and important duties. Address, &c.—Gentlemen, whose ambi-
tion leads them to public (house) life, generally find the house
open to them, and their measures are carried without opposi-
tion—measures which, if not full of spirit, are at least not
deficient in "head," although somewhat heavy at bottom ;
and these houses offer some advantages which the others do
not possess, for the debate is always adjourned at twelve, by
which time our " Bill" is most often laid—under the table.

AGRICULTURE.

To keep cows from corn, take a quart of train oil, and as
much turpentine and bruised gunpowder; boil them together ;
and, when hot, dip pieces of rags in the mixture, and fix them
on atieks in the field. About four are sufficient for an acre
of corn.,
Tis greater part of the animals and poultry exhibited in
the Champ de Mars were sold for the most part at high
prices. H.R.H. Price Albert sold all his oxen, but refused to
sell his, cocks 'and hens, though as much as I,Boof. were offered
for one ,cock and two hens. One cock and two hens of the
Dorking breed fetched 750 f., and a cock and hen of the same
breed 400 f.
EA.nr.y SHEEP-SHEARING.—It may not be generally known
that early-clipped sheep, from the sudden transition from heat
to cold; fall off instantaneously, and to an extent, beyond all
belief,,except those who have witnessed it. Being aware that
fat sheep travel to market with greater ease to themselves
when relieved of ther fleeces, we would strongly recommend
that the moment they are clipped they should be carefully
rubbed • over with some fatty matter, previously saponified,
and .from.the nature and properties of the composition it will
be found a bad conductor of heat, and will, therefore, on that
account, prevent in some measure the great deterioration of
the animal.
SUPPLY OF GUANO.—Consular despatches communicated
to the Board of Trade, since the Ist of January last, respecting
additional sources of the supply of guano, were lately pub-
lished. lt hence appears that deposits of guano have been
discovered in the islands composing the canton of San Andres,
in the • province of Carthagena; in the islands belonging to
the Ecuador, off the coast of the province of Manabi ; in an
islet, called " Hergest's Rocks," situated near the island of
Nukahiva, in the Marquesas group ; on the east end of the
island of Guadaloupe ; on St. Mark's Island; in the proximity
of the Bay of St. Bartholomew, on a small rock near the south-
west end of the Island of Natividad ; and on Maria Island. It
is also probable that considerable deposits of guano exist along
that unfrequented portion of Peru, extending from Chincha
Islands, in 13.40 to 15.50 each latitude, from the River
Pisco to the River Acari, a distance of 200 miles in a south-.
eastern direction, over a sandy. desert. The extraction of
guano from the islands in the canton of San Andres has been
prohibited by the Governor of Carthagena.
