BRAZIL.

In reply to Mr. LAIRD, r.
Mr. LAYARD said he was afraid that he was unable to
give any of the documents of the date to which his hon.
triend referred, Mr. Vereker's illness was the subject of
notoriety. The facts were simply these :—Mr. Vereker
was very zealous in the public service, and he made great
exertions in the matter of the wreck of the Prince of Wales.
From those exertions, and the bad climate of the place,
such an effect was produced on his health that he was ob-
liged to leave Brazil, but he was not quite recovered, and
would shortly return.
FORTIFICATIONS AT GREAT YARMOUTH.

Sir H. STACEY asked the Secretary of State for War
why the batteries of Great Yarmouth, for which a site was
chosen, and the land purchased and paid for by Government
in the year 1859, and of which the importance to the gene-
ral trade of the country in the north seas was pointed out by
the secretary of War (in a correspondence with the mayor
of Great Yarmouth), have not been erected.
Sir G. C. LEWIS said that Great Yarmouth was a com-
mercial harbour, and was not included in the schedule to
the Act relating to fortifications, and it was not thought de-
sirable to take a vote on the army estimates this year for
the purpose.

TEETH.-By MR. ESKELL'S INVENTION
(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
Sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by means of his patented soft elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings, and defying detection by tne closest
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary construction, they are guaranteed tc last a life
time, as wEll as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

CORRESPONDENCE IN RELATION TO THE
UNITED STATES,

Mr. S. FITZGERALD gave notice that he would move
on Thursday for papers in continuation cf the correspon-
dence between her Majesty's Government and the Govern.
ment of the United States ; and also between her Majesty's
Government and the gentlemen representing the Southern
States.

SYDNEY ROYAL MINT.

Mr. Alderman SALOMONS asked whether her Majesty's
Government intended to act upon the recommendation of
the committee, and legalise the circulation in the united
Kingdom of the sovereigns coined atthe branchof the Royal
Mint at Sydney
Mr. T. HANKEY also wished to ask the right hon.
gentleman whether he was aware of an act having passed
the Legislature of New South 'Wales, by which a larger
amount of duty was levied on uncoined than coined gold ;
and whet her it was the intention of the Government to al tow
that act to take effect ?

The CHANCEL LOR of the EXCHEQUER said he had
heard of the act to which the hon. member referred; but he
did not know the precise stage at which it had arrived in
the colonial legislature. It was an act recognising a differ-
ence between coined and uncoined gold, but containing no
innovation; and only merely reducing certain duties that
now existed. With regard to the question put by the hon.
member for Greenwich, he had to say that her Majesty's
Government had the disposition generally to give effect to
the principal recommendations of the committee of last ses-
sion with respect to the circulation of the colonial sove-
reign; but he did not wish to give so absolute a pledge
on the subject as would preclude the Government from
following any advice they might hereafter receive on a
more public and general discussion of the subject, be-
cause, though it apparently did net involve any great
results, yet it was one of considerable importance. It
was his intention to have prepared a bill for the purpose
of embodying the views of her Majesty's Government on
the subject, but he had just learned that some circumstances
had occurred in the colony which bears in an important
degree on the question of their taking immediate steps at
home. It was the opinion of the committee of last year
that the Sydney sovereign should be made a legal tender
in Great Britain, and an essential part of the arrangement
would be that of making permanent provision in that
colony for the establishment of a mint, which should be
as permanent as though it was a part of the establishment
on Tower-hill. He found that, owing to causes which
might or might not be connected with the measure, the bill
for making a permanent provision of that character had
just miscarried in the New South Wales Legislature, and
it might therefore be desirable that they should be further
informed what was likely to take place in regard to the pro.
vision of such a bill before they proceeded further in this
country, or to take time to consider whether they should
proceed further until they more precisely knew the inten-
tions of the New South Wales Legislature with regard to
this subject.

Amongst the seniors, W. Charnley was bracketed first
in Greek, also second in Latin and religious knowledge ; It.
J. Edwards was the first in French. Amongst all the junior
candidates, R. Roberts was bracketed first in Latin ; A. D.
Carlisle was bracketed first in Greek, and second in mathe-
matics. A Liverpool candidate, who has not this time ob-
tained first.class honours, was first among the jumiors in
mathematics and chemistry, and second in mechanics. Alto-
gether Liverpool has gained nine first-class senior honours
out of a total of fifteen, Liverpool caadidates being first in
eight subjects out of ten; and three first-class junior
honours out of nineteen.

Two or three of those who were candidates at other centres
in the Oxford examination of 1858 have recently gained
high places among the wranglers of this year.
It is but justice to add that Augustus M. Watson, the
successful competitor for the Prince Albert Scholarship at
Liverpool, also previously took the prize of first junior, and
first senior scholar at the middle class examinations, and
was educated by the Rev. Richard Wall, M.A., Breewood
Grammar School, near Stafford.

LONDON, IUESDAY, FEB. 24, 1863.

In the House of Lords yesterday, Lord REDESDALE
prcsmted a petition against the erection of a station
of the Great Eastern Railway in Finsbury-circus.
—The Earl of DERBY presented several similar peti-
tions, and urged the impottanee of weighing the
matter before allowing so much open space in the
metropolis to be sacrificed.—Lord GRANVILLE said
that the subject was an important one. He thought
it would be well to adopt the resolution proposed
in the other House, that the Metropolitan Board of
Works should represent the public interests before
the committee which were to inquire into these
railway schemes.—After some further discussion,
in which Earl GREY and others took part, the
second reading of the bill was postponed for a
fortnight, and their lordships adjourned at a quarter
past six.
In the Commons, Lord CLARENCE PAGET alluded
to a personal matter between himself and Lord
_Robert Montagu. The latter accused him with
'going to Chatham and making a political speech,
with a view to impress the electors in favour of his
brother-in-law, Mr. Otway. The noble lord entered
into some details relative to what actually occurred.
—Lord ROBERT MONTAGU explained that what he
had said was that the noble and gallant lord, who
was an important member of the Government, had
gone to Chatham, and when there had promised
that Chatham should be made the most important
of our naval station Q. The purport of this address
was that in case of a general election the electors
of Chatham might be influenced. This might
be called Ministerial mud-larking, and he did not
think that the noble lord had refuted the charge--
Sit F. &Mill observed that all the electors though

that the Secretary to the ALir'alty's visit, accom-
panied by his brother-in-law, was a "political
move.”--Mr. LAYARD said, in answer to Mr. Hen-
nessy, that the Government had not received the
text of the convention between Russia and Prussia,
and
and that the despatch of the British o
Minister
re-
ferring to the question was founded
n hearsay
evidence. —The bill granting annuities to the Prince
and Princess of Wales was read a second time.-113ir
H. WILLOUGHBY said that he was perfectly
satisfied with the arrangements, now that he
had gone over the accounts of the Duchy.
Mr. WILLTAMS made some objections as to the
accumulations of the revenues of the Duchy.—r.
AVITALLEY was concerned that the marriage treaty
had not stipulated that the children of their Royal
Highnesses should be brought up in the Protestant
faith.—Lord PALMERSTON replied that a great part
of the accumulated money had been expended on
the estate of Sandringham, and to repair the 'man-
sion ; also hi 3 Royal Highness's outfit had taken
£lOO,OOO. With regard to the matter of religion,
the treaty Wila similar to that of George the Fourth
when Prince of Wales, and he could assure his hon.
en d that ha might rest assured that the children

Orkousta made play to the second fence, where, on re

'with Wilful and Chastisement in close attendance. After
Willul and Deceiver had alternately held the lead, Mr.
Land's horse cleared the last hurdle slightly in advance of
Wilful, who,, however, persevered to the end, and finished
an exciting struggle only half a length in the rear of De-

Death of Daniel Whittle Harvey, Esq.
This Day.

To-day we have to announce the death of Daniel
Whittle Harvey, Eq., Chief Commissioner of the
City Police, which office he has held for a great
number of years.

For some time past Mr. Harvey had been suffer-
ing from carbuncle and erysipelas having ensued, he
died this morning about half-past six, at his official
residence, 77, Old Jewry. Mr. Harvey at one time
took a very prominent part in public affairs,
representing Colchester in the House of
Commons. He afterwards was elected for the
borough of Southwark, which place he con-
tinued to represent until he accepted the appoint-
ment of Registrar of Metropolitan Hackney Car-
riages!. While faithfully discharging the duties of
thin office the appointment of Chief Commissioner
of the City Police was offered to him, which he
accepted, and continued to hold up to the present
moment, although on one or two occasions he had
been tempted to resign by becoming again a can-
didate for Parliamentary honours.
To his other duties Mr. Harvey also added that
of a newspaper proprietor, by starting a daily jour-
nal called the lrue Sun, which was purchased
many years back from the deceased gentleman by
the former proprietor of this newspaper, and incor-
porated with it.

Mr. Harvey was 76 years of age, and the salary
he received as Chief Con missioner amcunted to
£1,200 per annum.
The vacant appointment will no doubt be con-
ferred upon Captain Hodgson, who for a long period
has held the office of Chief Superintendent, and
who is admitted on all hands to be highly qualified
for the duties of the office.

AN EFFECTUAL REMEDY.-LAMBERT'S
ASTHMATIC BALSAM, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and incipient con-
sumption. It frequently cures persons whom the faculty
pronounce incurab.e, admirably allays the tickling which pro-
vokes frequent coughing. In approaching consumption its
effects are truly beneficial. Persons deprived of sleep, or even
lying down for fear of suffocation, may depend on relief in
a few minutes alter taking it. Prepared only and sold by
W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8, King William-street, Charing-

ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at IC ing's-cross.

Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCTT, H.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.

This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its moat pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.
The Weekly lloard feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued support,
to enable them to P dmit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
