SIR,—It is iinpossible, after reading the mendacious

for your masterly vindication of the man who r x:. sea an
unbending front to rill the resources of the Absoluti-s—
-mortals of tinsel, ah-se game, I fervently trust, is best

to keep it up.—Accept. Sir, av, assurances of, &c.,

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—The unfailing success of Hol•
oway's Pills and Ointment in the Cure of Ringworm, and all
Diseases of the Skin.._.A medical gentleman, residing at Lima
whose child had been severely afilicted with Ringworm for
upwards of sia years, tried every known remedy to cure this
dreadful disease but in vain, as it was of so inveterate a cha-
racter as to baffle the skill of himself and other practitionOers.
As a last resource he was persuaded to use Hollovray's int-
ment and Pill, these medicines having obtained muchhcele.

brity in all parts of South America, and they had.tehaetin aptphy.

disease from the system.—Sold by all Drut ggifts,

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is. enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con.
tributiou of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of hi, payments will be returned to his repreqentatives.
'lre following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
!ages which the judicious application of a small saving caa secure
through this Society.

NEW HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT.

Mr. PACKE postponre his motion on the delay in
completing the new ti,rase of Comm-ins till next session.

HARBOURS OF REFUGE.
On the motion of Mr. BRIGHT (ia the abscnce of
Mr. Hume), the followinn re!urns were ordered:—
Return of all sums voted for harbours of refuge sine,
the year 1844 and a statement of the money expended
upoil Dover, H irwich, and Portland respectively: similar
return for Holyhead, distinguishing between the
suala expended upon► the old and new harbours:
statement, showing under which department of Govern-
ment the several harb)ur works are bring carried
out, and the sort of superintendence or control that is
exercised over them; copies of the authenticated plan (if
any) of the works to be executed at each of these places,
showing the extent to which it is proposed they should
be carried, and the estimated expense of each ; and of
the report of surveys, if any, or copy of plans, if any,
showing the progress made from time to time in the
works ; and showing also their present state ; the
amount already expended on each, and the amount to

Next to the united crew of the Conibises iii&Claspera,
he " Never-mind-it" were the favtibrites, and many did
not indeed hesitate to express their conviction that they
would be found competent to defend the high.character
of superiority which the London watermen have So emi-
nently attained, while others regretted that anything
should have occurred to have caused the necessity of a.
division of their
_strength. The Durham crew were
next in request.

It was afair start; after which Red began to draw s
head, and off the committee•barge Lad cleared them•
selves. The other two made a very close race for same
distance, when Pink took the second place. The Never•

two lengths behind the_second; the other nowhere.

BADEN.

The chiefs of the insurrectional movement of der-
many, MM. RAVEAUX, STRUVE, and VOGT, have,
just arrived at Berne. On the 4th, 150 Poles belong-
ing to the free corps of the Baden army, who were
disarmed at the frontier, arrived at Basle. As Frarce
refused th-m entrance on her territory, they were to
be directed by the valley of Montiers, to the canton
of Neuchatel.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

We read in the Breslaw Gazette, under the head of
Vienna the 4th :—" A sad calamity has taken place
before Neusatz. In consequence of the ravages of
the cholera, the authorities resolved to expel the in-
habitants not favourable to their cause. The
Austrian troops blockading the place, thinking that
this was a hostile sortie, fired upon them, and some
hundreds were killed."

The Vienna Gazette announces the taking of
Mieskolez and Tokay by the Russians, and that a
large . Russian force had been directed against
Debreczin.

SCULICK, it appears, attempted to advance from
Alst to Comorn, but his progress was stayed by the
fire of the Hungarian batteries, and he was compelled
to fall back, and had not the Russian General, PA,
NANTIN, come to the rescue he would have been
completely defeated. The Austrians have discon-
tinued their operations against Comorn, they leave it
to the Russians to endeavour to reduce the maiden
fortress. On the night of the 4th 600 wounded
Austrians and Russians were brought into Vienna.

village, as well as three others adjoining it, and set fire
to them. The natives had fled at our approach, and

kept up a harassing and well-directed fire ; but, our

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, 1849.

The necessity of a considerable extension of the
elective franchise is at length admitted on every side.
The Premier, in a recent debate, solemnly abjured
the " finality" doctrine which had so long, we are
happy to say erroneously, been ascribed to him.
Even the most decided Tory will scarcely venture to
assert that all the inhabitants of the United Kingdom
beyond the 1,030,000 electors which form the aggre-
gate of the electoral body should still remain unre-
presented. Whatever views, therefore, may be en-
tertained with respect to the other great questions of
Parliamentary Reform, there is at least no difference
with respect to the propriety of bringing within the
pale of the Constitution many of those who, under
the present system, are most unjstly excluded
from any voice in the enactments of the
laws by which they are governed, or in the disposal
of the national revenues to which they are collectively
and individually bound to contribute, and who are
thus reduced to the condition of being mere political
cyphers unworthy of exercising the privilege of self-
government, the inherent birthright of every free-
born man. _ . .

The justice of the principle that there shall be "no
taxation without representation" has long been re-
cognised by all parties. It is to the unequivocal
recognition of that great political axiom that the
power of the House of Commons is chiefly ascribable.
That House has long been the recognized guardian of
the public purse, and no interference, however
minute, is tolerated with respect to the important
privilege which is so jealously and vigilantly
guarded. That privilege has been conceded
because that souse is supposed to represent the Wants

FRANCE.
The Natioral says :—" The political friends of
General de Larcoriciere asserted at the Assembly on
Saturday that the gallant officer had positively re-
fused
the appointment as Ambassador at St. Peters-
burgh. The assertions acquire a certain degree of
probability, when coupled with the last vote of
Gentr,.l Lamoriciere on the affairs of Germany, and
his retusal to succeed General Oudinot in the coin-
mand of the army of Rome. When the policy of a
Ministry is so frankly condemned it is not unusual
for a man to accept a confidential mission under it.
,
e read in the Siecle :—" There are some facts so
odious, that it is necessary to be doubly sure before
we can venture to publish them. For the last two
days the fact which we are about to mention has been
repeated to• us, but we could not believe it. To-
day, however, all kind of doubt has disappeared,
and we can speak. An order has been given, by
whom we know not, but we affirm that the order
has been given to a police accent to establish him-
self en permanence in the gallery of the ex-repre-
sentatives."
The Civil Tribunal, on Saturday, decided that
owing to the absence of M. Ledru Rollin, Mme.
Ledru Rollin should be allowed to receive without his
authorisation his rents and revenues.
The Patrie says it has received a letter from Brus-
sels announcing that M. Bixin, M. Ledru Rollin,
and M. E. Arago arrived in that city on the morning
of the 7th. The two latter bore false names, and it
eras said would not remain long in the town. M.
Ledru Rollin had, according to this letter, escaped
from France in the disguise of a waggoner, and took
a third-class place on the railway. The Patrz.e, how-
ever, does not pledge itself to the truth of this state-
ment, and the Brussels journals make no mention of
anything of the kind.

AMERICAN NEWS,

LIVERPOOL, JULY 10.—By the Royal mail steam•
ship Cambria, Captain Shannon, we have advices from
New York to the 27th, and Halifax to the 30th ult.

The Hibernia, Cuptain Stone, arrived at New York
on the 30th ult.

The deaths in New York and other parts of the
American continent from cholera were rapidly in-
creasing in number. In New Yolk, from the 19th
to the 26th of June, there had been 159 deaths out of
333 cases.

The Canadian intelligence is very uninteresting.
St. John the Baptist's day was celebrated on the 25th
ult. with great eclat. An immense procession of
French Canadians paraded the city, and the Catholic
churches were crowded. We are happy to state that
no collision took place, all the reformers of French
descent behaving very peaceably. On the 26th, flour
was quoted 20 9, and exchange was 11 per cent. for
bank-notes.

We have no later advises from California than
' those brought by the steamship Crescent City. An
interesting letter from General P. F. Smith, to a
friend in Washington, has been published in the
columns of the Union. The source from which it
comes gives increased weight and interest to its state-
ments. The following is an extract :

even a butcher's knife, to loosen the earth and stones,
and the most simple basin for washing, have been as
richly rewarded as the most approved machines from
other countries. Good luck in the labourer choosing
his location has more than compensated for
want of shill. The real difficulties lie in
the hardships to be encountered in the remote
uninhabited spots where the gold is found. Want of
food, overworking, excited by succe,s, bad water, expo-
sure, and dissipation—all combine to exact a heavy tri-
bute far the wealth when found. All are not successful,
but every one works on, hoping that the next

BADEN.

The chiefs of the insurrectional movement of Ger-
many, MM. RAVEAUX, STRUVE, and VOGT, have
just arrived at Berne. Ori the 4th, 150 Poles belong-
ing to the free corps of the Baden army, who were
disarmed at the frontier, arrived at Basle. As France
refused them entrance on her territory, they were to
be directed by the valley of Moittiers, to the canton
of Neuchatel. .
London, England, 1849-07-11

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

We read in the Breslau, Gazette, under the head of
Vienna the 4th :—" A sad calamity has taken place
before Neusatz. In consequence of the ravages of
the cholera, the authorities resolved to expel the in-
habitants not favourable to their cause. The
Austrian troops blockading the place, thinking that
this was a hostile sortie, fired upon them, and some
hundreds were killed."

The Tienna Gazette announces the taking of
Mieskolez and Tokay by the Russians, and that a
large Russian force had been directed against
Debreczin.

SCHLICK, it appears, attempted to advance from
Alst to Comorn, but his progress was stayed by the
fire of the Hungarian batteries, and he was compelled
to fall back, and had not the Russian General, PA.-
NANTIN, come to the rescue he would have been
completely defeated. The Austrians have discon-
tinued their operations against Comm, they leave it
to the Russians to endeavour to reduce the maiden
fortress. On the night of the 4th 600 wounded
Austrians and Russians were brought into Vienna.

tendance of buyers was small, yet the d.-wand for all
kinds of Wheat, of haute produce, was firm, at fully
Monday's (potation. Rutter ov..r 9 000 quarters of
foreign Wheat have coma to hand this week. >t•l,-cted
samples of both red and white moved off steadily, at very
full prices. In the middling and inferior kinds very few
transactions were repot ted. Grinding Barley ruled firm
at the late advance. Melting and distiltiog sorts were
quite as dear. We had.a very slow ii•quiry for Malt, at
barely stationary prices. Good sound Oats were very
scarce, and turn dearer. Inferior samples ruled heavy.

SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. JUSTICE
COLTMAN.-(THIS DAY.)

It is with regret that we have to announce the sudden
demise of Mr. Justice Coltman, for many years one of
the Puisne Judges of the Court of Common Pleas. The
learned deceased Judge had been in a weak state of
health for some time, and had recently suffered from the
effect of a severe fall from his horse. On Monday night
he complained of indisposition, which gradually grew
upon him in the course of yesterday, the symptoms
being stated to indicate cholera, from which he
but slightly rallied, and expired at his residence
8, Park-gardens at seven o'clock this morning. The
deceased Judge, though not eminent for the display of
brilliant abilities either at the bar or on the bench, was
generally esteemed for the suavity and amiability of his
manners. We do not know his exact age, but it could
not be far from three score and ten.

The last occasion on which he officiated as judge was
at the Central Criminal Court last Saturday, in trying
Prince Granatelli and his coadjutors for fitting out Eng-
li3h steam-vessels to take part in the Sicilian insurrec-
tion. We may say truly, "in the midst of life fife are in
death."

PARTITIONS AND CEILINGS OF WIRE-
WORK.—The latter have been successfully applied, in
place of lath, with piaster and stucco as usual, at the
Chester Lunatic Asylum. The wires are about j in.
apart, and the plaster forms an adhesive and serviceable
mass, even on both sides. The wire is galv,tnizA, or
japanned, to prevent corro4ion. Not only ceilings, one i
would think, but thin partitions and walls n general,
might be wired in place of lathed, and risk of fire thus
greatly diminished by a process neither patented nor
costly.— The Builder.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—At twenty minutes past
twelve o'clock to-day her Majesty arrived at the Royal
Clarence Victualling Establishment, Gosport, in a spe-
cial train, conducted by Mr. Stovin, the general manager
of traffic of the South-Western Railway; Mr. Gooch,
superintendent-in-cbief of the locomotive department;
and Mr. Superintendent Stevens. The Commander-in-
Chief, Admiral the Hon. Sir Bladen Capel, K.C.8.; the
Lieutenant-Governor, Major-General the Right Lion.
Lord Frederick Fitzclarence; Rear-Admiral Superin-
tendent H. Prescott, C. 8., and the usual staff, were in
attendance, and the reception was conducted with the
usual ceremonies. The Fairy royal yacht, Commander
Crispin (in the absence of Captain the Right Hon. Lord
Adolphus Fitzclarence from indisposition), embarked the
Royal party immediately, and steamed out of harbour,
followed by the Elfin tender, under the usual demonstra-
tions of loyalty. The Royal party landed at Trinity-
wharf, East Cowes, at eighteen minutes past one P.M,
and reached Osborne at half-past one, when the royal
standard was hoisted on the summit of the tower. The
guard of honour was furnished by the 91st Regiment,
and commanded by Major Gordon.
Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Rent will visit
her Majesty at Osborne to-morrow.
WOOLWICH, MAY 22.—The Jasper steam-vessel, re-
cently commissioned at Woolwich by Captain Beachy,
