NOTES of a PARLIAMENTARY SPEECH.
Teach Russians good manners—protect Turkey—reform the
representation—extend the franchise—appeal to public opinion and
plain facts, stating the elevating influence and sure protection
afforded to all class.s by the attire manufactured by E. MO "ES and
SON—the benefits derived from purchasing at their establishments,
the best means of retrenchment and economy which the wisdom of
the Senate could recommend. _ . _

Are large and liberal measures or small and antiquated plans of
business best calculated to promote the welfare of the kingdoms?
Penny postage has increased the revenue by an amazing increase of
business, and E. MosEs and Sox, by cheapening attire, have ren-
dered it at the same time more fashionable, more comfortable, and
more easily accessible to individuals and families. * * * First,
to advance. new measures suited to the progress of the times—to
bring out the tarefftfetiiius, and skill of all countries for the accom-
modation of the English public, should be the object of such politi-
cians as would rise to distinction. As E. MOSES and Sox have al-
ways the earliest samples of new productions in every material and
every style of dress for the coming seasons, this spring it is certain
they will excel the magnificence of the last, from a surprising degree
of success which has attended their enterprising efforts.
To manage the colonies and to make them profitable has perplexed
the talent of this honourable house. The satisfaction in Australia and
all other parts of the world with the business of E. Mosas and SON is
highly encouraging, and their clothing, boots, and shoes, hosiery,
&c., is producing a greater amount of profits to merchants and ship-
pers than any kind of merchandise whatever.
Emigrants, ladies, gentlemen, and families are outfitted in the most
economical mariner, and full lists of outfits, with ship-sailing infor-
mation, may be had on application, or post free.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard 'the
public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have
No CONNEXION WITH ANY OTHER ROME IN OR OUT OF LONDON,
except their own Establishments, as follows :

Medical Society,
Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, tco, ke'
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the farful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities and a
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in
'
Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusals 's
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and whe are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being Is
entitled. The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an
extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints,
and has long directed attention to these enormous evils, from which
no grade of society is free. Their treatment has unfortunately teen
too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant em-
pirics, who, with their pirated publications, assumed fcreign names
and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, inflict
great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their preten-
sions. The serious consequences resulting from such mal-practice
may easily be avoided. it sufferers from these maladies were to asses
tats if their medical adviser be a member of the London College of
Physicians, f urgeons, or Apothecaries' Hall, as any one possessing
either of these qualifications usually appends it to his name, and thus
the legally qualified practitioner can at once be distinguished.

TRIESEMAR, protected by Royal Letters
Patent of England, and secured by the Seals of the Ecole de
Pharmacie de Paris, and the Imperial College of Medicine, Vienna.
The long continuance of most Maladies arising from impurities,
while it tends to render detection more certain, and thus frequently
to embitter the domestic hearth, also serves to excite feelings of dis-
appointment, and to induce lowness of spirits, and other sensations
of a most painful kind. The TRIESESIAR effectually, in the short
space of three days, ccmpletely and entirely eradicates all traces of
these Diseases, to whatever stage they may have advanced, possess-
ing at the same time the manifest advantages of being utterly devoid
of taste or smell, and of all nauseating qualities. It may lie on the
toilet table without its use being suspected.

IMPROVEMENTS IN THE CITY. —The whole of the ma-
terials of the numerous buildings lying between Great
and Little Carter-lane and Old Change having been sold
by auction, a number of workmen were employed on
Saturday morning in pulling down and removing the
materials, and in the course of a few days the whole of
the buildings will be removed, which will completely
open the line of thoroughfare of the new street, Cannon-
street West, in a lino from the magnificent pile of new
warehouses in St. Paul's-churchyard, throughout to
London-bridge, on the south side, which, when com-
pleted, will be the finest street in the City of London.
Tins CANADAS.—No portion of this country is making
more marked and rapid progress at the present time
than the western section of Canada. We are surprised
at the rapid growth of the Western States and cities of
the American Union. And yet since the year 1800 the
growth of Canada West has been nearly twice that of
the United States. In the last fifty years the increase
of the States, according to the best authorities, has been
about 400 per cent ; but during forty years, between
1811 and 1851, the increase of Upper Canada was up-
wards of 1,100 per cent. Take even the three great
States of the West—Ohio, Michigan, and Illinois, and
compare them with Canada West, for the past twenty
years, and great as has been their growth, our Canadian
neighbours exceed their increase during the same period
by the large ratio of 55 per cent. This immense in-
crease in Western Canada is not confined either to the
cities or the rural districts. It is a general movement,
and there are potent causes in operation which will ac-
celerate the growth of the next decade. The increase of
the city. of Toronto, when compared with cities in the
States, is found to exceed that of Boston, New York,
St. Louis, and Cincinnatti.—Boston (United States)
