To S. SOLOMON, Esq. M.D. LIVT.R POOL.
DEAR SIR, I cannot refer to the time when I
have taken my pen in my hand with more sati.faction
Wan the period in which it is now occupied, to aequaint you
of the astonishing efficacy of your CORDIAL BALM OF
GILEAD, which I have stnsd in consequence of excessive e.
bility, occasioned by a three years' residence in the lA",sst In-
dies, and imputed to the heat of the atmosphere. Hating
'rebuked from that past of the world so emaciated, with but
little appetite, and my strength very nearly ealrausterl, spirit-
kat, and unable to get any natural sleep, I arrived in the. situ,-
lino at Liverpool, and applicd imnie.liaely to Dr. S.thainon,
whose excellent advice anti medicinc, after persevering in it
for six weeks, completely restored to me my origin..? good state
of health. I am now returning to the West Deere., in the
ship Diana, Caption Conplasul, where I shall exert myself, as
mochas possible, to establish the Cordial Balm of Gilead, well
knowing it is a medicine deserving every encomium that Con
be bestowed on it, and perfectly adapted to the climate.

One of the professed eitiects of this new Review i., to steer a
middle mum between, en the one hand, that severity which,
delighting todiseover and dwell on imperfection, has Ifs effect iu
blighting or discouraging the efforts of genius; and, en the
other heed, that parual report or inilie.rimiliate prarie,which in
an equal degree Meats the first purpose of a Literary Review.
In consequence of its detail of Criticism being wholly confined
to the more important Works in each department of Writing
(inferior Publications being merely registered in the Monthly
List, with brief notices proportionate to their and of
each number containing ten ►heets, or 160 pages, a quantity
far ecceeding that of any sundae publication, the Editors are
enabled to bring forward an account of every interesting %VGA
very aeon after its appearance; an advantage exclusively their

t unity to introdu!e notices of other Works of the same descrip-

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

110 USE OF LORDS-THUISDAT, It

In an Appeal from the Court of Session in Scot•
land, Jame:. Arnot, .lames Ker, Thomas Gordon,
and others; Air. Romiliy was heard tor the Ap-
pellant, and ?Ir. Park and Mr. Grant for the Re-
spondents. 'lle further proceedings were adjourn-
ed to to-morrow.

The Irish County Peace Bill, Irish Malt Duty
Bill, Cottms Mantiladurers' Bill, and Hackney
Coach Stage Bill, were read the second time, and
ordered to be committed to-morrow.
The late Lord Kilwarden's Family Pcn<lon Bill
went through a Committee, and the Report received.

CORN BILL.
•
Earl STANHOPE moved, that the Order of the
Day for the second reading of the Corn Bill be dis-
charged, and that the BiU be read the second time
on Monday nett, and the Lords summoned. His
Lirdship said, be had distinflly given notice, that
he should oppose the Bill. Whatever the opinions
of Noble Lords might be as to the merits of this
Bill, it would be allowed, it was a Bill of great im-
p stance. He had read hundreds of Bills, but ne-
ver saw any so unworthy to receive their Lordships'
approbation a; this, if it were even admitted that
the principle of the Bill was unexceptionable. If
their Lordships should come to a debate on it, Le
would chew that it was drawn up in a most 'bond
and ridiculous Manner. The legal import of the
word el calefe, he believed, had never been attempt-
ed to be defined. But, in this Bill, it was taken to
me •n biscuits. The Bill had occasion to notice the
relative value of English and Irish currency. This
was well understood to be as 14 to 13. In this
Bill it was sometimes stated to be as 9 to 9-10 to
10—as 14 to id. Such was the arithmetic of the
Bill ; such its absurdities. As to its policy, it was
a Bill to increase the price of corn and bread. This
was the acknowledged objeft of its framers, this the
language of the Bill, and of the Committee in the
other House. He said thus mach to call their Lord-
ships' attention to this extraordinary Bill. Earl
Stanhope's motion was then agreed to.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS BILL.
His Royal Highnesss the Duke of CLARENCE.
moved, that the Insolvent Debtors Bill be read the
second time on Tuesday next.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, having left the

Woolsack. said be was glad to find the illustrious I
Duke had taken a day a little remote. This was as
important a Bill as any that could come before th it
Lordships i • tho' it bad been before their Lordships
for several days, he believed airy few Noble Lords
knew any thing of its contents ; and it was so appa-
rently abandoned, that if the illustrious Duke bad
not taken it up, it might bare been found at the end
•f the seg‘ions, having made no further progress than
the first reading. He thought the Bill could not
pass, if it was thought expedient to pass it, without '
Teri material alterations. He hoped their Lord-
ships' attention would be direded to the subject.
'rhe motion was agreed to.
Ths Report of the Committee on Brognoen's Na-
turalisation Bill being read ;
The Bishop of &. ASAPH observed, that the
naturalisation of foreigners was an saa of mere grace
in the Legislature ; and the principle it had adopted
was, that the person praying for such favour
should be of the religion of the realm by law esta-
blished. If they were adults, it was required that
they should have received the sacrament according to
the rites of the Church of England. If.they were not
adults, be thought the principle should be still main-
tained, and evidence required that they were pro-
truants of the English Church. The proper evi-
dence was, that of having been confirmed. In the
present instance, which was that of a lad under the
age prescribed by law for taking the sacrament, no
evidence was produced before the Committe to prove
that the young man was a protestant of the Church
of England. He thought it indispensible that the
person praying to be naturalised. should give pt of
of his being a protestant of the Church of Engle id,
by 'saving reamed the sacrament according to the
ekes of the Church of England. if an adult ; or be-
im; confirmed, if otherwise. He should, on this
penscipie, which he held to he of the utmost import-
ance, move, that the report be taken into con.idera-
dun on this day three months.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said. he entirely
agreed with the Learned Prelate, on the principle
which should govern such Bills. But perhaps, in
the present case, it was pushed too far. It would
be hard on the party to lose all the expenees of the
Bill; because of that which might fairly, as to him,
be deemed to result from mere ignorance. He
therefore wished. that the report be postponed for a
few days, to see if the party could not give proof
of his being of the established religion. Perhaps
the Bill might he passed sei.h a prespiraive power;
engaging that be be naturalised so soon a:. be shall
be confirmed, or receive the sacrament. He was
unwilling the person should suffer from ignorance.
He would therefore propose, that the Report lie on
the table. to see what could be done, consistent
with the principle, which he wished to maintain,
and with what was just in this pirticul.sr case.
For future regulation, lie thought it would be
well. that a Committee should be appr.inted to
point out what evidence should be necessary when
tlzzurson was not an adult The best evidence
probably be that of confirmation, as suggest.
ed by the Learned Prelate. Tho-report was ordered
to be on the table.—Adjourned to to-morrow.
