J3ONNET'S SILKS a LYON.—Every Article of
commerce takes its title eitherct from the inventor
the
or
manufacturer, and the more perfe the production
greater is the credit which attaches to the originator.
BONNET'S SILKS are said to be incapable of identifica-
tion in England ; but the fallacy of such an assertion is ex-
pos-d by the very trade mark of the firm, as exhibited by
Messrs. JAY, of Regent-street.
The following interwoven mark may be seen at the end
ofeach piece :—" Manufacture de C. J. Bonnet et Cie., a Lyon
o a Injurieux." Wear guaranteed.

LONDON, SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1864.

About Mr. STANSFELD, M.P. for Halifax, Junior
Lord. of the Treasury, "Minister of the Crown,"
as he ostentatiously calls himself, we must surely
hear a little more in the House of Commons imme-
diately after the renewal of the sittings of Parlia-
ment on Tuesday. It is quite impossible that the
matter should rest where it is. The scandal with
which this Minister of the Crown's name has come
to be identified, not only notoriously here in Eng-
land, but notoriously all over Europe, cannot be
glossed over. Its offence—like that of the King in
"Hamlet"--is rank and smells to heaven. It
won't serve Mr. STANSFELD'S purpose, or Mr.
LATARD'S, or Lord PALMERSTON'S, or the Govern-
merit's to attempt again riding off, as the phrase is,
on the high horse! The whole transaction is
too flagrant, too sombre, too un-English
&s our national instinct of pride induces us idioma-
tically to express it--to allow of Mr. STANSFELD,
or of Mr. LATARD, or of Lord PALMERSTON, or of
erly Minister of the present Government, either
one as important as the Prime Minister, or one as
insignificant as a Junior Lord of the Admiralty, to

pass it by contemptuously, after
the fashion of fire-
eating Sir LiraNs 01:LIGGra when he turns upon
his heal from that most degenerate of country
Squires and country bumpkins, 808 ACRES, with a
" Pooh, pooh ! ye're beneath my notice r,
It is not
Simply Mr. Cot, ... of Finsbury, asking an awkward
question of the gentleman who lives at 35, Thurloe-
square, Brotunton, the very gentleman who
ets o' nights on the Treasury Bench in the House of
Commons actually rubbing elbows with the Prime
3linisterofEcgland,Viscount PALMERSTON, Itisnot
simply that the occupants of that bench are being
disturbed during their evening slumbers, through
all the dullerjntervals of the debates, by the yelp-
ing and snarling of that fretfullest of little Watch.
