OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

" The Use and the Abuse of the Turkish Bath.—A very
useful pamphlet has been published by Dr. Culverwell, the
proprietor of the Turkish Baths in the neighbourhood of the
Post-office, which presents to the uninitiated a mass of inte-
resting information, while those who have already encouraged
this new system will derive additional advantage if they
observe some of the practical regulations which the writer
"ndeavours to enforce."—Herald and Standard, N0v.12, 1861.
" The Post-office Turkish Baths, 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand.
—Dr. Culverwell has already established the reputation of
an able physician ; he has now proved himself to be a worthy
philantlirOPist in as far as he has established, in the heart
of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco-
very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice
of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established,
the Turkish Bath. . . Our object being merely to direct
the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess
one of the best set of baths, at 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand,
which the country can produce; perfect in all Its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinement,
which,
considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur-
prising,a while everything that taste or delicacy could desire
himself regenerateda djnueswtlY
s been obtained to add to the
cemfort and luxury of the
visitor. . .

with the subject ho proposed to consider, first, the
amount of injury infreted, next its preventability, and, in
conclusion, the inadequacy of the existing law. The menu.
facture of alum was carried on to a great extent in St.
Helen's, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Glasgow, and other
places, and the noxious vapours emitted by these
manufactories was most destructive to vegetable
life. In the neighbourhood of St. Helen's the damage
to timber in the surrounding districts was inconceivable,
and many of the poor persons who frequently depended
upon the produce of a few fruit trees to pay their rent had
had those trees entirely destroyed ; and, owing to the exist-
in; state of the law, the poor people were absolutely and
entirely without redress.
Earl GRAN VILLE said that feeling the great import.
ance of the question which his noble friend had handled in
so able a manner as to completely dispel any apprehensions
that might have been entertained of his motion by the
manufacturing interest, the Government were quite pre-
pared to give it their assent.
After a few observations from Lord RAVENSWORTII, the
motion was agreed to, the committee to be nominated on a
future day.
The Bills of Exchange (Ireland) Act, 1861, Amendment
Bill was read a second time, and the Transfer of Stocks
(Ireland) Bill a third time and passsed.
Their lordships then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY.
The SrEAKEIL took the chair at four o'clock.
PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The Lords' amendments to the Bradford Corporation
Water Bill were considered and agreed to, and the bill was
ordered to be read a third time. The British Plate Glass
Company Bill, and Webb and Craig's Patent Bill were
read a third time and passed, and the Tyne General Ferry
Bill was read a second time.

PETITIONS.
Several petitions were presented against the abolition of
church rates, against the Highways Bill, against the impo-
sition of the income tax on incomes under £l5O a-year, and
ag"'.f, the inquisitorial character of the tax; by Mr. M.
GlflsoN from th inhabitants of Ashton-under-Lyne,
praying that a law might be pft.sed to prevent the obtain-
ing of licences for the sale of spirituous liquors without the
consent of ratepayers; against the appointment of the police
Public-houses Licenses (Scotland) -

THE INCOME TAX.
Sir H. WILLOUGHBY gave notice that when the
Customs and Revenue Bill came on he would move the
introduction of a clause providing for the paying of expenses
of persons who had been summoned to give information
relative to their incomes.

THE IS SHIPPING ACT.
Lord HOTHAM asked the right hon. gentleman (Mr,
M. Gibson) when he intended to proceed with this bill ?
Mr. M. GIBSON said that it was arranged that the com-
mittee of supply this evening should not go beyond 10 or
half•past 10 o'clock, when he would proceed with the
Merchant Shipping Act.
Lord HOTHAM said that he understood the right hon.
gentleman to state last night that he would inform the
house this evening when he would bring the bill forward,
but he had not the slightest idea that it would come before
the house this evening. He acted under that impression,
and communicated with some members of the house, who
were absent in consequence of his statement.
Mr. LOCKE was not present when the right hon, gen-

tleman made his statement, but he was under the impres-
sion from what he read that the noble lord (Hotham) was
correct.

Mr. M. GIBSON said that he had communicated with
the noble lord at the head of the Government, and the
arrangement which be mentioned was decided on. How-
ever, under the circumstances, he would not bring the mea-
sure forward this evening. (Hear, hear.)
