DR. RING'S SARSAPARILLA COCOA.

TO those under a course of Sarsaparilla or
Medical treatment this COCOA will be found an excellent be-
verage, instead of tea or coffee (which decidedly excite the nervous
system, and irevent medicine, particularly Sarsaparilla, from baying
the desired effect). Invalids with weak stomachs will receive more
benefit from this pare Cocoa than any preparation, being made with
true cocoa nibs, combined with pure sarsaparilla, and rendered more
palatable,

In packets at Is. Gd. per lb., or 3 lbs. for 4s.
TAR AX ACUM, or DANDELION LIVER PILLS, possess proper-
ties of an alterative and aperient nature, and, as an adjunct with Dr.
King's Sarsaparilla Pills, have cured thousands of obstinate liver com-
plaints. The great advantage is, that they contain no mercury, act
upon the live-, stimulate the system, and give refreshing sleep, and
are the best aperient family pills, being mild in effect, and never en-
dangering the system like mercurial preparations.

ANEW DISCOVERY IN TEETH.-
Mr. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-street, has intro-
duced au entirely NEW DESCRIPTION of ARTIFICAL TEETH,
fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resem-
ble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the original by
the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method
does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation,
and will give support and preserve teeth that are loose, and are
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr.
Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economical,
he has fixed his charges at the lowest scale possible. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.-52, Fleet-street. At

MR. GROOM'S TULIP SHOW.

There was yesterday a Private view of Mr. room's
annual exhibition of tulips. They are this season much
finer and more regular than they have been for years.
The great variety of the colours is surprising, and the
propitious weather has favoured them. The grand bed
of tulips is under an awning 150 feet in length and 17
feet in breadth, and contains about 2,000 roots. Some of
the most esteemed varieties are " Victoria Regina,"
"Prince of Wales," " Duke of Norfolk," "Duchess of
Sutherland," "N ourii Effendi," "Michael Angelo,"
" Dr. Horner," " Countess of Wilton," and "The Mar-
quis of Bristol," which is valued at 100 guineas. The
public exhibition opens to-day. Among the visitors
yesterday were the Duchess of Cambridge, Rev. Lord
John Thyme, Lord Claude Hamilton, M.P., Lord
Kenyon, Lord Crewe, Lord Tenterden, Lord Saltoun,
the Bishop of London, the Bishop of Durham, the
Duchess of St. Albans, Earl Crawford and Balcarras, &c.

AUSTRALIAN ROYAL MAIL STEAM SHIP COMPANY.
The adjourned meeting of this company took place
yesterday, Mr. J. G. Frith in the chair, when a report
was presented containing a further correspondence with
the Government on the question of the contract, and the
preliminary recommendations of the board for taking
the sense of the proprietors respecting an arrange-
ment with the General Screw Company. The Go-
vernment, it was intimated, adhere to their deter-
mination of withdrawing the contract, but abstain
from enforcing a penalty. The principal topic dis-
cussed was the future management of the under-
taking, and the existing prospects of a union with
its competitor. A feeling prevailed adverse to a
junction with the General Screw Company, particu-
larly when it transpired that it would not be unac-
companied by legal difficulties ; and, as no specified plan
was brought forward, the majority refused to pass an
affirmative resolution. With regard to the advantages
to be derived from an amalgamation, opinions greatly
varied, and it was eventually agreed to receive the report
of the directors, and to appoint a committee to examine
the affairs of the company previously to any final step
being adopted.
London, England, 1853-05-24

COMMITMENT

Charles Barrett, 45, was brought up, committed by
J. Foster, Esq., a county magistrate, on the 23rd of
April, to hard labour at Wandsworth until these Quarter
Sessions, for being an incorrigible rogue and vagabond
at Godalming.
The prisoner has been upwards of fifty times in cus-
tody and punished, and the law gave power to magis-
trates to send Kim. to hard labour until the Quarter
Sessions for the county, when the Court had power to
commit him for a very long term. By an error of the
magistrate he was committed until the Adjourned
Sessions, instead of the Quarter Sessions.
On being brought rtp, the Clerk of the Peace said the
error was fatal, and the prisoner, however incorrigible,
must now be dischare ed.

The prisoner, mu'ob. to his surprise, was then dis
charged.

LORD MAYOR'S COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY PRIVILEGES-JEIFFKINS V. LONDON AND BLACKWALL
RAMIVAY COMPANY.

This was an inquiry to assess damages, under what
is generally known ros Writ of Compensation. In the
present case, Sir F. Thesiger, and Mr. Hance appeared
for the claimant ; and Mr. Bevil', Q.C., and Mr. Ryland
for the company.

Mr. Randall, one of the privileged City pleaders; pro-
tested against counsel being engaged on either side,
whilst all the City Pleaders (4) did not hold a brief.
The question of throwing the Court open has been
mooted, and, to a great extent, been satisfactorily ar-
ranged ; and solicitors are now free, not only to practise
in the Court, but by permission of the Judge, not only
to plead in person, but under peculiar circumstances,
by their clerks. The presenecase gave rise to the ques-
tion, but the subsequent one was of equal, if not greater,
importance.

Mr. Ryland pressing his protest,
The Learned Recorder said that the matter of privi-
lege was in course of settlement, and if Mr. Randall
thought it right to waive the question at present, it
would prevent discussion now.
Mr. Randall sa,ld he did not waive any light, but
would, of course, bow to the Court, and let the matter
remain open.

Sir Frederick Thesiger disavowed any intention to
infringe upon any privilege and he was not aware that
a writ for compensation directed to the Sheriff came
under the cognisance of the Lord Mayor's Court.
His Lordship said that although the writ was directed
to the Sheriff, still it was to be tried in the Lord Mayor's
Court, which had very important rights in Law and
Equity.
A verdict m's taken by consent for 1,7001.
ANOTHER CASE OF PRIVILEGE.

In the next case Mr. Ryland, one of the City pleaders,
appeared for the defendant, but the City counsel for the
plaintiff did not appear, nor any other City pleader to
hold the brief. Mr. Ryland, by courtesy, held over for
a time, and his Honour and the jury for a short time,
when, getting impatient, it was determined that the
case should be proceeded with. Mr. Rogers, clerk to
Mr. W. R. Buchanan (one of the solicitors admitted
under the new rules for admission'of attorneys), was
called upon to take the place of counsel. The case was
full of legal technicalities, but of no interest. The case
was not concluded at 1 o'clock.

MILITARY TROUBLES IN CUBA.

THREATENED SEIZURE OF GREYTOWN.
The United States mail steamer Daniel Webster,
from San Juan de Nicaragua (Greytown), arrived
at New Orleans on the afternoon of the 9th inst.

We learn from a private telegraphic dispatch,
that it was currently reported at Greytown that
the State of Nicaragua would immediately take
possession of the town, and abrogate the local go-
vernment.

The same arrival brings Havannah dates of the
Bth inst. Disagreements between the authorities
were notorious, and more disaffection had broken
out among the troops in the interior of the island.

SURREY S.VSSIONS-(THIS DAY.)
London, England, 1853-05-24

THE FRENCH _NAVY.

The following is the report made in the name of the
commission appointed to examine the bill on the gene-
ral staff major of the navy, by Admiral Baron de Mac-
kau. It w4s presented in the sitting of the 13th inst.:—
Messieurs les Sdnateurs—The project of law which is
presented to you, tending to modify the law of June 17,
1841, on the general staff•major of the navy (armee na-
vale) contains two distinct and chief dispositions for the
service of the marine : it proposes :
On the one hand to allow the retirement from active
service of the general officers of the marine three years
sooner than prescribed by the existing law of 1841 ;
And, secondly, to modify by symplifying them, the
conditions imposed by the law of Aptil 20, 1832, on
promotions in the marine for rear-admirals to be raised
to the grade of vice-admiral.
. _

Befoi-e opening the debate, the commission decided to
render you an account of the opinion it has formed on
the constitutional question mooted by the project of
law.

The commission has devoted various sittings to resolve
it. It has again carefully consulted the text of the Con-
stitution, and has repeatedly stopped before Art. 26,
which runs as follows :

" The Senate is opposed to the promulgation :
"1. Of laws which should be contrary to, or an infring-
ment upon the Constitution, religion, morality, freedom
of worship, individual liberty, equality of citizens before
the law, inviolability of property, and to the principle of
immutability of the magistrature ;
"2. Of those which might compromise the defence of
the territory."

Thus, gentlemen, it might happen that a project of law
might appear in accordance with the Constitution, and
which might, nevertheless, contain dispositions contrary
to, and infringing upon, great principles, and most im-
portant questions placed under your care by the two
paragraphs of the 26th article of the Constitution—in
that case it would be incumbent upon the Senate to re-
ject the project.

Behold how great is the mandate entrusted to your
patriotism by the Emperor. Your vote would suffice to
stop the Government if it had unwittingly been misled
into a wrong path.

and trade would alike .oppose its renewal in 1860. The
consequence he feared would be, that when the emergency
hinted at by the right hon. gentleman arose, and it became
necessary for the Government to ask for the income-tax
again, they would be totally linable to obtain it at the
moment when they most. needed it. If the house saw its
way clearly to any modification of the injustice of the tax,
it ought to be placed upon such a footing that it would be
accepted now and renewed hereafter, if required. He
would move that the word " net" be inserted in clause 2,
line 13. before the words " annual value."
The CHANCELLOR of tho EXCHEQUER said, that
the principle uPOn which the Government had proceeded
h d been to introduce mitigations wherever they could be
adopted without breaking up the framework of the tax.
Mr. SPOON ER recommended the hon. member for
Bodmin to withdraw his amendment in favour of that pro-
posed by the right hon. gentleman (Mr. Walpole).
Dr. MICHELL consented to withdraw his amendment.
Mr. KNOX moved that the chairman report progress.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed
the motion. It was important that the house should make
speedy progress with the bill.
Sir D. NORREYS said it was not fair to impose a new
tax upon Ireland without giving time to the Irish mem-
bers to examine the bill. He had only just seen it.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER observed,
that the bill had been printed and in the ban& of members
more than a week. The words used in the clause would
have no effect in levying the tax upon Ireland ; the mode of
doing so was provided by special clauses.
Lord J. RUSSELL hoped the hon. member for Dun-
gannon would not persist in his motion to report progress.
(Hear, hear.) -
Mr. KNOX said he would withdraw it if the noble lord
would promise to stop at the end of the schedules. (Loud
cries of " No, no.")
The motion was then withdrawn, and the committee
divided upon Mr. Walpole's amendment,—
For the amendment 72
Against it 164

Majority against it 92
The amendment was consequently lost.
Colonel DUNNE suggested that a column should be
inserted in the schedules with a view to obtaining a dis-
tinct return of Irish property, in the same way that a
return of foreign property was now obtained.
The clause, with some verbal amendments, was then
agreed to, and the Chairman reported progress.
The report of the Committee of Supply was brought up
and agreed to.
Mr. CARDWELL in reply to Mr. BLACHETT, said that
he could not fix any day for proceeding with the commit-
tee ou the Merchant Shipping Bill until the house had
cows to a dseision on the financial propositions of the Go-

coma to a dteision on the financial propositions of the Go-

HACKNEY CAERLA.GES BILL.
The order of the day for the consideration of the Hack-
ney Carriages (Metropolis) Bill, as amended, was then
read.

Lord A. VANE said, he saw no economy in the bill, and
could not understand what there was in it which should
make the public so anxious for this " wonderful Cab
Bill." He should move, upon the next stage, that the half
miles be charged at a proportionate mileage rate, and that
the rate for waiting be assessed as at present.
Mr. W. J. FOX suggested that some right of entrance to
railway stations should be provided for cabs, and that
these stations should be put upon the same footing as the
other cab ranks.

Mr. J. M`GREGOR would be very glad to consent to
this, if the Government would repay the railway compa-
nies the money they had expended upon their stations.
Sir J. V. SHELLEY understood that the fee at present
paid by cabs on entering the stations was principally for
water, and that whatever there was over and above went
to form an annuity-fund for the cab-drivers themselves.
The bill was then considered, and ordered to be read
third time on Monday next.
REGISTRATION OF ASSURANCES BILL.
Lord J. RUSSELL postponed the second readinc, of this
bill till Friday next, with the view of then referring it to
a select committee.

"Dr. Pickford 's known to English readers by his frequent practi-

with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying

SUCCESSION BILL.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER having in-
troduced this bill, and fixed its second reading for Monday
next, stated that he was desirous of removing some mis-
apprehension which he feared might exist with regard to
it, relating to a matter, indeed, of only secondary import-
ance, so far as the principle of the measure was concerned,
But still of considerable interest. He had stated, that in
the case of a person succeeding to an encumbered estate,
he would he charged with the succession duty upon the
residue of the net income that would come to him after all
deductions had been allowed, and after his encumbrances
had been allowed ; but that, if he sold it, he would have
to pay upon the whole amount of capital after he had li-
quidated his encumbrances out of the estate. In reference
to this latter portion of the statement, he wished to say
that it appeared to the Government to bo better to aban-
don that altogether; and, consequently, any person having
once paid his tax upon the net income of which he was in
enjoyment would be discharged from all liability in respect
of it, whether he sold his estate or not.
The other orders were then disposed of, and the house
adjourned, at half-past 1, till Thursday next.
