NATIONAL COGNAC BftANDY DISTIL-
LERY COMPANY.
The Directors beg to announce to the Public, that from the
confidence placed in them by the Shareholders in the promptitude
with which the Deposits have been paid, they are enable to com-
mence business, and to receive orders to any extent. The quality
of the Brandy they offer to the public is, in the opinion of the most
experienced Conoisseurs, so very superior to that which has hitherto
been produced in this country, and bears so strong a resemblance to
the finest Cognac, not only in flavour, but in its salutary effects en
the human frame, the Directors feel confident, when its properties
are generally known, no family will deer it necessary to incur the
heavy expense of purchasing Foreign Brandy.
This Brandy will be supplied at 18s. per Imperial Gallon, in
quantities of not less Two Gallons.
A liberal allowance to the Trade.

TO CAPITALISTS.

THE Writer is in possession of a means of pro-
ducing an unlimited motive power, capable of propelling the
largest ships that float the ocean, suitable for all purposes of Loco-
motion, and for Mining, and for Machinery of all kinds, possessing
the following advantages :

First.—li is a harmless power and requires no fuel whatever.
Second.—The space occupied for, say 500 horse power, will be
less than a steam engine of same power, independent of space for
fuel.

Third.—The: cost of an engine of the above size will be much
less than a steam engine of same size.
Fourth.—The power, it may be said, will not cost anything after
the first load, or charge for years, and this load or charge is but a
trifle.

Fifth.—lt is so easy of management that any intelligent person
may be taught to manage an engine of any power in a few days.
The writer wishes assistance to mature his discovery, and secure
patents.

For this purpose two or three thousand pounds will be required,
for which the writer will give five per cent. per annum.
The sum lent will be refunded, with its interest, out of the first
proceeds of the engine, and ten thousand pounds for the accomo-
dation.

The secret of the discovery will not be given at first, but for an
expense of 401. or 501. a shaft will be shown doing work for any
length of time that may be wished.
Reference will be given to respectable parties in London.
The writer having applied to almost all the Public Companies
about London uses this means before leaving for the Continent.
As there is no time for correspondence, none need apply but per-
sonally, between the hours of six and eight in the evening of Mon-
day, the 9th inst., between the hours of ten and six, on Tuesday,
the 10th inst. ; and same hours, on Wednesday the 11th inst.
Applications to be made at 8, Brunswick-terrace, Barnsbury-

Sheweth,
That your petitioners view with surprise and alarm a measure
before your Honourable House to repeal the existing laws of
Copyright, and to substitute in its stead a law highly injurious to
the interests of the community at large, the literature of the coun-
try, and more particularly the interests of your petitioners.
That your petitioners consider that to extend the benefit of
Copyright to the natural life of an author, and sixty years beyond,
would have the certain effect of restricting the publication of books
in general, more particularly those of the highest merit, the greatest
usefulness, and the most extensive circulation, thereby discouraging
mental pursuits, and, by its application, tending to demoralize the
rising generation, and, as a necessary consequence, injure the trade
by which your petitioners live.

That your petitioners consider every book, after its author has
received from the community its patronage for the period at present
provided by law, should become the property of the public in ge-
neral; the work would then be widely circulated, and society at
large, as experience has proved, be greatly benefitted by the
diffusing of the information it contains.

That your petitioners consider the liberty at present enjoyed of
making extracts from Books is not prejudicial to the authors and
proprietors of such works ; but, on the contrary, highly advanta-
geous to them ; while to prohibit this liberty, except for the pur-
pose of criticism, would be to prevent the publication of a nume-
rous class of School Books for the instruction of the juvenile mind,
particularly adapted for the inculcation of religious and moral pre-
cepts, and entirely alter the present mode of education throughout
the country—it would also tend still further to prohibit the publi-
cation of a numerous class of Books, which afford amusement and
information to the mature and cultivated mind, and which give em-
ployment to a considerable portion of your petitioners.
That in the opinion of your petitioners such important altera-
tions as are contemplated by the proposed Bill, would be highly
mischievous, unjust, and subversive of the general interests of so-
ciety. We therefore humbly entreat your Honourable House to
reject the same.
And your Petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray.

BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS.

HANON'tg, MARCH 31.—The Second Chamber of the Es-
tates has resolved to prolong for one vitas (1838-1839) the
Budget as voted by the late Assembly of tlse Estates, and
to consent that the existing surplus shall he employed in pay •
ing debts, in the improvements of the Palace, &C. in the pro-
portion proposed by the Government. At the same time :t
was resolved, that for the same year, (1838-1839) 102;009
six dollars should be taken off the personal tax. so far as it
can be done without embarrassment to the public treasury ;
and the Chamber has also proposed, that considering the little
business that they have to do, the Assembly shall be adjourned
till the Committee appointed to examine the ne►w Constitution
shall have concluded its labour& The First Chamber has not
acceded to this proposal.
APRIL 2.—Notwithstanding the difference in the opinions
respecting the proceedings of the Assembly of the Estates,
we frequently hear highly respectable men declare, that they
think the Estates act as the good of the country requires un-
der the present circumstances. It must be owned that
there is a great difference in the situation of one who looks
on what is passing as a mere spectator, and of a Member of
the Assembly, on whom a heavyresponsibility rests. If we only
reflect what the consequence would be if the filstates were to se-
parate without enabling the Government,by their consent, to levy
taxes, we shall confess that it would be rash of them if they
did not at least make the attempt to obviate the confusion
that must ensue. It cannot, therefore, be affirmet: that seve-
ral members, otherwise respectable men, have withdrawn from
the Chamber before the country was satisfied in this respect
at least.

An opinion is pretty generally prevalent that the greatest
gratitude is due to the Chambers for their calm conduct anu
well-considered proceedings, and great personal sacrifices which
the members make to the country, and it is hoped that they
will continue in the manner they have begun and so lead to a
satisfactory result.—Hamburgh Papers, AprilG.
WARSAW, MARCH 30.—After the water in, the Vistula had

ice begins to move.—Prussian State Gazette, April 4.

SPECIAL COUNTY COURT, AraxL 9.
An adjourned Court was held this day, before Mr. Sergi nt
Armius and n full Bench of Justices, "to consider the expe-
diency of recommending her Majesty's Cmornment to bring in
a Bill to limit the opening of houses for the sale a spirituous
liquors, to the hours prescribed for coffee-houses and be.tr-
houses, and to forbid the opening al e
uf such spirit-housesgether on Sunday mornings; and to empower the nig:strates;
to license certain houses for the sale of tea, coffee, and other
unintoxicating refreshments, to be open in the tlig::kt time, an
situations where they may appear to them necessai:a for the
reasonable accommodation, of the public, and to stigtvest such
modirtcations of the existinglaws in regard to public-houses, as
may appear to them to be necessary."
Mr. J. T. BARBER BEAumoNT, the Chairman of the
Committee, this day moved the adoption of the sixth resolu-
tion—" Provided always, that any peron, v,hetber licenstd
to sell excisable liquors in any in.,) or' victualling-house,
wherein the sale of spirituous liquors does not form a proini-
nent part of the business therein, or not so lioNisrd, may
supply yeady.made tea, coffee, and oilier refreshrnlnis, not
of ken intoxicating kind, on his premises on Sunday /morn-
ings." The [ion. Member said the intent of it was to confirm
tee second, winch had been passed umniimously at the _rut
Court. The Committee, in recommending the resolutions,
had proposed certain n:easures to put a stop to midnight
drunkenness often elongated to the next morning, and that all
dram-shops and tirpling houses ehould not he opened on a
Sunday morning. Hotels and inns for the accommodation of
respectable families would be exempted from the proposed
rules. Mr. Beaumont, after repeating his former observa-
tions, which have been more than once detailed in the
Morning Advertiser, as to the necessity of closing public..
houses and gin-palaces by eleven o'clock at night, and keeping
them shut all Sunday mornings, moved the adoption of the 6th
resolution.

SOUTHAMPTON, APRIL 9.—Arrived the Peace, Byron, St. Michael's.
TORBAY, APRIL 9.—Arrived the Mary Anne, Shenis, from Faro.
SWANSEA, APRIL 9.—Arrived the Calder, Turner, from Valparaiso ;
and Cubana, Capes, from St. Sago de Cuba.

Sir CHARLES FoulEs seconded it.
Mr. GIBBON opposed the propo3ed rules. They were so
utterly und4ined that no Magistrate could enforce them. He
should like to know how on inn for families was to be defined
in contradistinction from a public-house licensed for the same
accommodation.
Mr. M‘WlLLlAm—There will be great difficulty in de-
fining it.
The resolution was put by the Chairman, and carried by
I I to 2, the minorizy- comprising Mr. Gibbon and Captain
Wood, M. P.
Mr. BEAUMONT then moved the -eventil resolution :
_.

MILFORD, APRIL 9.—Arrivcd the Irish Lass, from Monte Video ;
and J. P. Dobree, from Demerara.

l
ce That if any person persists in remaining in any victualling-
iiousc., beer-shop, or coffi22-house, beyond the times limited
by law, or if in consequence of any disortterly conduct therein
committed.. or reasonably apprehended by the keeper of such
house, he be desirous of clearing his house. and any person
refuse to depar.l- on being required so to do, it shall be lawful
for any such viettollcr to procure the aid of one or more police
constables or other }:Face-officer, when if the said person still
refuse to depart, it shat) be deemed a breach of the peace, and
he shall be token into custody to be dealt wit:l according- to
law." He ( Mr. Beaumont) considered this resolution most
necessary. It was required of licensed victuallers by the ma-
gistrates granting licenses, that they should keep their houses
in order, and how were they to be protected if such power atlas
.not given?
The CHAIRMAN observed that the Hot:. Mover appeared
to make it a substantial resolution, instead of a recommenda-
tion to her Majesty's Government. The Court had a right to
recommend, but not to make such a rule.

CORK, APRIL 7.—Arrived the Vulture (steamer), from London ;
Adelaide, Godfrey, and D. Ilregand, Groom, from St. Domingo.
BELFAST, APRIL 7.—Arrived the Victoria, Bever, from Alicant.
HULL, APRIL 2.—Arrived the William IV. (steamer), Hamburg.

land, arrived at Demerara, 21st ult., with foremast sprung and loss of
topmast, and proceeded.

ANTIGUA, MARCH 6.—The Miranda, Murdoch, from London and Bar-
badoes, grounded, in coming into the harbour, '2d inst , and unshipped
her rudder. She has been brought in, making little or no water, and
will be discharged, and hove down.

BERWICK, APRIL B.—The Margaret, High, from Shields to Dundee,
was stranded on Spittal Beach this morning ; crew (except the master)
rased.

ELSINORE, MARCH 31.—During last night and to-day it has blown a
strong gale from N. W. and W.N. W., which has probably broken up the
ice to the south. The passage to Copenhagen is reported to be clear of
ice to-day.

INlAnnvrtus, DEC 30.—The Rapid, Cassie, from hence to London,
which put back, 21st inst., with five feet water in the hold, has landed
the whole of her cargo, about 1,000 bags of sugar, damaged ; and as the
vessel still leaks, she will be hove down.

The Dryope, from Pernambuco to Liverpool, was spoken, 24th ult.,
in lat. 36, ton. 40; and the Irish Lass, Monte Video to Liverpool, 31st
ult., in lat. 46, ton. 24, by the William Russell, arrived at Liverpool.
The Swaine, Jenkins, from Dublin to Gloucester, was on shore near
Fishguard, Bth inst., and full of water.
The Ray, Jermain, from Dublin to Gloucester, was totally wrecked
near Holyhead, 7th inst.

Mr. GIBBON had no particular objection to the resolution,
but was it said the licensed victualler had not a right to turn
out a disorderly person ?
•

Mr. ELwvN-said the Commissioners of Police had ordered
that policemen were not to enter public-houses to turn out
disorderly persons.
The CHAIRMAN said he was of opinion the present law was
sufficiently operative without. the proposed enagtnnent.
Mr. BEAUMONT thought the ITsoluti.m was one of consider-
able utility ; a publican might wish to deer his house either
from his own good feeling, or respect to the licensing Magis-
trates, but under the present law there was no power allotted
him to turn out h s customers.
CHAIRMAN.-There is the statute law.

Despatches, dated the 14th of December, were re-
ceived yesterday at the India Board, from Lord Auckland, the
Governor-General of India.

Mr. BEAUMONT.—It does not apply. Licensed victuallers,
when tined before Magistrates for having disorderly persons
in their houses, say, " We cannot get rid of them—what are
we to do ?"

The CHAIRIVAN said the last speaker v.•as in error—the
landlord had the power to clear his house, and the proposed
resolt&on would not give him more power. The difficulty did
riot arise from the law, but from the rules of the Comniiisioriers
of Police.
Mr. CONANT was of opinion the Commissioners had acted
judiciously in giving orders that the policemen should not
interfere in such cases.

PRACTICAL RIDDANCE OF THE COAL MONO-
poLv.—Mr. Labouchere, the Chairman of the Committee on
the Coal Trade Bill, has been in the habit of asking each wit-
ness who has successfully narrated the gross abuses and extor-
tions of the coal monopolists, if he could suggest any remedy.
Several minor points have been suggested, but both witnesses
and Committee seem to be puzzled by the circumstance
that the coal-owners of the North can, and do refuse to sell
any Coals to those who will not comply with the absurd and
expensive regulations in the South. This double combina-
tion has hitherto defeated both Parliament and the public.
Now, however, the bull is likely to be taken by the horns ;
the
genius of Mr. Charles Pearson has discovered a plan, by
which, in spite of the High Court of Aldermen, and without
the aid of the higher Court of Parliament, the public may get
Coals at a natural and reasonable price, without being obliged
to pay for the constrained idleness of crews, the machinery of
factors, or the enormous profits and undetected mixtures of
merchants and dealers. The " Self-producing and Self-con-
suming Company," so far as its own members extend, will de-
feat a monopoly which allows "coals to be sold in Egypt at
two shillings per ton less than they arc permitted to be sold in
London !" The plan is a good one, and likely to be very pro-
fitable ; but it is susceptible of improvement. If it be in-
tended to supply shareholders on the coast as well as in Lon-
don, why not introduce some mode of taking advantage of the
drawback on the duty now conceded by the Corporation on
coals for exportation, and also show how they may be profitably
used as ballast ? These additions would render this practical
mode of defeating the monopoly perfect.—Courier.—[Pos-
sibly these suggestions were not overlooked, but purposely
omitted as being premature, until the negotiation between the
Corporation and the Parliamentary Committee be concluded].
TIIE SEVEN STAGES OF LAW.—TIIe law's a
strange riddle : all the world's at law, and all our thriving
fellows are lawyers; they have their articles and their entrances,
and one man in his time brings many actions—each cause
having seven stages. First the writ, hunting and seeking
in the bailiff's hands. And then the declaration, with its
venue and half-a-dozen counts, rushing, alas I too quickly on
its fellow, and then the plea to it, drawn by some special
pleader. Then the demurrer, full of denials, lying like young
Wilding, eager to put off, sudden and quick in filing, seeki,ig
for some procrastination, even in the judge's teeth. And
then the judgment, with fair decision and good records lined
with legal words and terms of formal cut, full of old prece-
dents and modern instances, and so they go to Court. The
scene then shifts ieto the sharp remorseless execution, with
levy on its back, and poundage too. Last stage of all, that
ends this strange and useless persecution, is the King's Bench,
or Fleet, or else the Marshalsea. Sans law, sans sense, sans
cash, sans everything.

Mr. GinaoN said, the Magistrates would stultify themselves
and appear ridic,lous if Ow) were to ask the Government for
a new enact vent when a law was in force.

Mr. M'\VILLIAaI remarked, that they were only making a
uggestion, which could (lo no harm.
The resolution was then carried by a majority of 12 to 2.
Mr. BEAUMONT next m wed, " That victuallers supplying
stront wine, end spirituous liquors to persons while in a
state of inLxication, or who have drunk so much liquor on his
premises as to be likely to be intoxicated, be not entitled to
payment for liquor so furnished ; and thit if they have pro-
cured payment for it, they may be compelled to rcfnnd the
same on a summary process." And observed, that in doing
he was aware of the smiles with which the readin:2- of it had
been received ; but he considered it art important part of the
proposed mesure.—( Hear and laughter.)
The CHAIRMAN said be wis!ied to hum, how a publican was
to ascertain that a person was likely to be in'oxicati d.—( Hear
and laughter.) Suppose he and his Hon. Friend Mr. Beau-
mont, were to go into a public-hour: and call for a pot of
porter with two other friends—cauld the publican tell who
had the strorgest or the iicakest head ?—(licar, hear. and
loud laughter.) lie could :FA ace box the thino• was to be
defined.

Mr. BEAUMONT said that it was a great hardship on Li-
censed Victuallers that persons entered their hours, partook
of refreshments, and then refused payment. A case had re-
cently been decided against a victualler : a stran!re person,
having the appearance of a gentleman, called for a &liner to
the amount of five shillings ; having taken it he slid he had
no money, but would ca'l another day and pay foe it. The
landlord insisted upon immediate payment, when the customer
said it was a mere debt. The landlord then srir:el his coat,
and an action at law ensued, in which the defendant (the
la.ldlorci) had a verdict returned against him, with upwards of
1001. costs. In short, Licensed Victualler; were the most
unprotected persons of the trading community.
CHaiEMAN.—In such cases, and where the person was a
stranger, the money might be asked for first.
31r. BEAumoNT.--Would you like to be asked for the
mono• first ?
_ _

CHAIRMAN.-Yes, I should not dislike it where I was not
known ; I should p:cfer it. Ikrsoi-s of the description al-
luded to, who lived in idleness, fared well, and were with-
out visible means of existence, might be apprehended as
vagabonds.
Sir C. FounEs said he could not agree to the resolution.
As to a man calling for dinner VS ithout money—and they had
heard something of ovstereaters, of .Dando—he would ask for
the money before the oysters were opencd.—( Laughter.)
But the resolution was to the effect, that if a man gut drunk
in a public-house the publican should not recover the amount
of the value of the liquor he bad drunk. Why that wouli be
an inducement to drunkenness.—( /fear.)

Mr. ELWYN w;shed to know how ;he latl!oyd was to know
at all times whether his customers were tipsy Hear.)
CHAIRMAN.—Yes ; au.l whether he is likely to be intoxi.
cited ; that puzzles me.—(Hear and laughter.) Sappose I
dine at the Thatched House Tavern and do not pay, and the
waiter sees me the next day in the street, what is to be the
result ?.:7-( Hear.)

Mr. BEAUMONT said he could not consent to an alteration
of the resolution, sshich was ultimately carried.
The 9th resolution, " That any person consuming victuals
in any house for the sale thereof, and not payinz for the same
if required during his stay, or as soon after as he caa be metwith,
with, and there being no agreement for credit to be given,
shall be deemed idle and disorderly, and be punishable accord-
ingly," was agreed to by a majority.
Mr. BEAUMONT next moved " That the Magistrates in
Petty Sessions, subject to appeal to the General Sessions, be
empowered to license persons to keep houses in situations
which they may approve of for the sale of tea, coffee, and other
refreshments not being of an intoxicating nature, to be open
in the night time, such houses to be thereupon open to the in-
spection of the police."
Mr. BEAUMONT said the resolution was a most important
one. The business of the extensive metropolis led numbers
to be abroad all night. There were persons connected with
newspaper establishments, passengers •by steam-boats and
coaches who required refreshment—and what Letter suste-
nance could they' find than in the coffee-house? There they
could procure far more substantial and nutritive provision than
gin and beer.
Sir J. J. HANsr.Ert seconded the propoition.
Mr. GIBBON opposed it—arguing that if carried into a law
it would open new receptacles for thieves and bad characters.
Any poor person might set up a coffee-shop without character
or responsibility,. while the Licensed Victualler involved his
whole property in his licensed house.
Mr. M`NVILLIAm thought the coffee-shops should be left as
they were ; by the proposed regulation he thought they would
creep up to spirit shops.
Mr. CONANT said the law regulating coffee.ir_ops was not
generally known--it was enacted that they were to close at
eleven o'clock at night, and not open before four or five
o'clock in the morning.
Captain Noon, M. P., said he thought the opening of
coffee-shops all night, against public-houses, would cause
more_ midnight disorders than were at present heard of. It
should be recollected that public-bous..s were licensed, and
great property invested by the ewners.—( Hear, Leer.) No
so with coffee-shops, the keepers cf which were irresponsible.
—( Hear.) Public-houses, as they were called, were under
the controul of the Magistrates, and the keepers liable to sur-
veillance and vexatious information. The Hon. Magistrate
subsequently observed, the Government rni,ght I).in; in a Bill
on the subject, and it would he 'a practicable course to ascer-
tain whether the police had the porer to clear Fuhl;e•heuses
on a Sunday morning. The Court was aware of a highly re-
spectable and wealthy body—the Licens.e.l Vietuall3rE._lnd
he thought a commumeaiion should be made to the Secretory
of the Institution. He believed the respectable Victuallers

ried, as well as the two remlinmg, and the Cow t broke up.

The consumption of tobacco In France has greatly
increased, and in 1836 exceeded that or 1835 by 4,578.6001b5.
The revenue derived by the state from this article amounts to
about 56,000,000 francs per annum.
