THE MOST DURABLE OUT-DOOR PAINT EVER INVENTED.
CARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION
PAINT, specially patronised by the British and other Go-
vernments, the Hon. East India Company, the Principal Dock Com-
panies, and other public bodies, &c., is particularly recommended to
the Nobility, Gentry, Agriculturists, Manufacturers, West India Pro-
prietors, and others, it having been proved by the practical test of
more than sixty years to surpass all other paints as an out-door pre-
servative. It is extensively used for the protection of wooden houses,
farm and other out-buildings, farming implements, conservatories,
park-paling, gates, iron railings, iron hurdles, coprer, zinc, lead, brick,
stone, old compo, and stucco fr3nts, and tiles to represent slating.
The superiority of the Anti-Corrosion to every ether paint for out-
door purposes may be easily inferred from the simple fact, that IN
use has been always most strenuously opposed by colour manufac-
turers, painters, oil and colourrnen, and others interested in the sale
of common paints. It is also very economical, any labourer being
able to ay it on.
Colours—White stone, light stone, drab or Portland stone. Bath
stone, light and dark yellow stone, light and dark oak, light and
dark lead, light and dark chocolate, bright and dark red, black, and
brown, 345. per cwt.; invisible green, 50s. ; bright green, 60s. ; deep
green, 60,, ; and blue, 60s. per cwt. ; in casks 28 lbs., 56 lbs , and
112 lbs. each. Oil and Brushes.

The Or'ginal Anti-Corrosion Paiut is only to be obtained of
WALTER. CARSJN (Successor to the Inventor 4), 15. TOKEN--
HOUSE-YARD (back of the Bank of England), who will show be-
tween 400 and 500 Testimonials received from the Nobility, Gentry,
and Clergy, who have used the Anti-Corrosion for many years at
their country seats.
A Copy of the Testimonials will be rent on application.

FINANCIAL 'REFORM.
REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE.
In our advocacy of a Financial Reform, it will be seen that we do
not seek to confer a privilege upon one class, at the expense of an-
other ; but in our transactions, to apply principles of such sterling
value and universal import as must prove, In the fullest sense of the
term, equally advantageous to all. We seek, in fact, to reduce, not
the income, but the expenditure, of every individual. How this may
be effected the following outline of our neve], yet well appreciated
business system, will readily show.
POSSESSING LARGE ESTABLISHMENTS
in most of the principal towns in Great Britain, our concentrated
purchases are necessarily very extensive ; from this cause we are
enabled to obtain materials direct from the manufacturers, for cash,
at prices considerably lower than the average. Our garments are de-
signed and cut by talented artists, and manufactured by experienced
workmen ; our profits are calculated at a nominal per-tentage upon
original cost, and the price Is marked on every garment, in plain
Cures, from which no deviation is allowed. These facts, together
with the accommodation afforded by the exchange of garments not
approved after purchase, afford advantages to our patrons such as
have been seldom, if ever, elsewhere presented, enabling them to
effect a reduction in their expenditure, at least in the item
" Clothing," of not less than 40 per cent., as the following brief
price list will testify to some extent :

CANADA.

` [The following paragraphs are extracted from a
pamphlet which, in a few days, we believe, will be
ready for publication. A more direct allusion to the
subject will be found in our leading columns] :
Ere I close this pamphlet,* I will respectfully di-
rect attention to an occurrence now agitating the
public mind, and on a subject which has been alluded
to in the Imperial Parliament—" The Canada Rebel-
lion Indemnity Bill."
Having, with every branch of my family, ever sup-
ported the Government in Canada, and opposed the
designs of anarchists and traitors, I will venture to
assert that this Bill, now awaiting Lord Elgin's assent,
was not a proper or judicious measure. It was intro-
duced by his own French Canadian Ministry, to
reimburse the disloyal Lower Canadians for losses
sustained in the rebellion of 1837. In a former ses-
sionElginregret the Parliament reimbursed the loyal Upper
Canadians fur their losses. It was but fair a similar
measure should relieve the loyal Lower Canadians;
but I
otoverlfionodked tthath his
e
Excel-
lencyfact, or
permitted the introduction of one name, and
that too, the heaviest claimant, Dr. Wolfred
Lord
Nelson, a person of great talent in his profession, but
who was a traitor, and was the principal fomenter of
treason: at St. Charles, and on the banks of the
Richelieu; nay, further, that he either was one of
those transported to Bermuda! or, what was still
worse, fled his country and remained in exile for
years, till the general amnesty permitted his return ;
a sad evidence of presumed guilt !
There can be no excuse pleaded to justify Lord
Elgin overlooking Wolfr ed Nelson's name. Unfortu-
nately, it was too prominent in the rebellion of 1837,
for a price was set on his head ; and his violence, at
that period, was as conspicuous as that of Mr. Papi-
neau ; consequently, it mounts to a serious error of
judgment on Lord Elgin's part, and I am not surprised
that his popularity should be on the wane. No go-
vernor, possessing discretionary power, should permit
a Ministry to foist on him the responsibility of remu-
nerating traitors ; for if such acts are persisted in, it is
not to be wondered at that loyal men should be driven
to revolt. However, the whole matter appertains to
Canada, and Canada alone; and any interference
by the Imperial Legislature will be most unwarrant-
able and uncalled for. The strong arm of the law is
lample enough in the province to suppress any attempt
of the petty section in the minority of the Legis-
lative Assembly to sow the seed of revolt
or mischief; and I particularly allude to that section
represented by Sir Allan Macnab and Mr. Sher-
wood. Their inflammatory speeches have produced
much mischief, and it is thus that clever firebrands
" sow the whirlwind," leaving the humbler class to
" reap the storm."
The colonial press has devoted itself for some
months, in a strain the most violent and bitter,
against the measure ; and it is to be deplored that his
Excellency Lord Elgin, whose government has been
most judicious, and whose motives have been the
purest throughout the period of his command, did
not pause ere he permitted this Bill, obnoxious only
with regard to Dr. Nelsons name, to be introduced
" as a Government measure."
It never could have been contemplated or intended,
that those proved to be fomenters of rebellion and
de facto traitors, should be rewarded for their per-
fidy and treasonable conduct; and, in Dr. Nelson's
case, an exception should have been made, as, to all
the other claimants, no mention of opposition or the
slightest hostility has been exhibited to the full reim-
bursement of the claims of loyal sufferers by the
rebellion ; and I now fear it is too.late to remedy this
very serious error, for it is a wretched precedent !
Lord Elgin should have objected at the initiative
step, and, before the Bill was introduced to Parliament,
either dismissed his Ministry, or appealed to the
constituency by a dissolution of the Legislature.
However, whatever course is adopted, I will impress
on the reader that the sum to defray this indemnity
Bill is contributed by general provincial taxation, and
consequently found by those who, in the elective fran-
chise, have exercised the undoubted privilege of return-
ing those Members who are supposed to speak the
general sentiments of the electors. A reference to
the votes, and the overwhelming majority in its favour
in the Legislative Assembly, bespeaks the popular will.
Now supposing the navigation-laws passed by the
Commons, and again by the Lords, by a very trifling
majority of even of 2, I question much if her Majesty
would dare attempt to veto a measure passed by both
branches of the Legislature. The Canada Bill is an
exact parallel, but with this serious exception ; it is
asserted but has yet to be Frayed, that Lord Elgin's
Ministry selected some six partizans, and elevated them
to the Legislative Council (fie Colonial Peers), and thus
carried their measure by a majority of four. If this is
the case, his Lordship would be unfit to retain his post,
and should be immedittely removed. He has
violated privileges which should have been hold
sacred in the province of Canada; and, I fear, the
result will lead to a serious collision between the

'rench and English sects. The idea of granting
premiums for rebellion is too monstrous to entertain
for one moment; but, as insurrections oftimes entail
serious losses, miseries, and hardships on the well-
disposed and loyal portion of the people, they, and
they only, are the parties whose claims to indemnity
should be favourably entertained, and the British por-
tion of the community have never objected thereto. But
a hatred is now engendered in the province by the Eng-
lish to wards the French party. To arrest its progress,
there is but one judicious step to be taken. At once
divide the province of Canada into the Upper and
Lower provinces ; include in the former the island
of Montreal, and the eastern townships ; and let
each province retain its own Legislature. Reduce
the salary of the Governor-General to 4,5001., and
appoint a lieutenent-governor at 2,5001. for the Lower
province. Let the seat of Government be Quebec
for that division, and llontreal for the Upper pro-
vince. This step would entail no expense, as the
Governor-General's salary is 7,0001. per annum, which
exceeds even that of the President of the United
States.—The French and English races would thus
be divided.

If this recommendation, which is a popular one, is
not entertained, replace the division of the union as it
was previous to the rebellion of 1837, and give each
province its own legislature. The union of the
provinces after the rebellion was an injudicious
and ill-advised step, and I question much, if mea-
sures are not immediately taken to divide the pro-
vinces, that nothing can prevent a revolt. In that
case it will be the British community rising against
that Government which required, a few years since,
their loyal services to put down treason and rebellion,
which was fomented by the Lower Canadians. The
position of Canada iscertainly most critical.

THE BANBURY HURDEL—James Layton, who
stood charged with attempting to murder his wife, by
shooting her and eating her throat, on the Southern-
road, near to Great Burton, was on Monday morning
again brought up a Banbury, before the two county
magistrates, John Lcveday, Esq., and the Rev. William
Lloyd, by whom he lad been remanded, and committed
for trial. To the astonishment of all, Mrs. Layton is
still living, and had up to our last information, pro-
gressed fa,vourably, the wound in the forehead presents
edeep hole; that inthe throat is granulating; but she
is quite unable to swallow. Mr. R. S. Wise attends
twice a day, and adslinisters sustenance, such as arrow-
root and beef tea, b) means of the stotnuch•pump. We
have been expressly requested by her to state her gra-
titude to Mr. Wise, or his great attention and kindness.
Before the prisoner left Banbury, he was told that bis
wife was likely to ecover. He said he was sorry to
hear it; if she died, be would go to the gallows dancing.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.

subject of the Ministerial crisis :

at
the residence of M. Barrot. and after a long discussion,
which lasted until an advanced hour of the night, it was
again admitted that it was of the highest importance that
the Government should present itself before the new As-
sembly united in their political views, while the members
of the Cabinet are not so on several important points. It
was, consequently, resolved that the Ministry should
proceed on Sunday to the Elysee to announce their re-
solution to the President, and to request him to act ac-
cordingly. We believe, moreover, that the different lists
of a new Ministry, circulated yesterday, are in every re-
spect inaccurate."
The Siecle denies from authority that any overtures
have been made either to General CAVAIGNAC or to
M. DUFAURE to form part of any new Ministerial
combination.
It was believed in Paris yesterday that Marshal
BUGEAUD would be appointed President of the Coun-
cil, and that M. DE FALLOUX would be a member of
his Cabinet. Louse NAPOLEON would by making such
an appointment commit political suicide. It would
inevitably lead to a fearful civil war, in which, should
the Republicans be victorious, he will be expelled
from the country; and should the Bugeaud-Palloux
faction be victorious, he will have to cede his place to
HENRY V., for the restoration of whom and of the
parti pretre M. DE FALLOUX has been intriguing for
years past.
A grand review took place yesterday in the Champ
de Mars. The PRESIDENT was received with cries of
" Vivo Napoleon," " Vive le President," " Vive la
Republique," and in some instances by cries of " Vive
la Republique Democratique et Sociale." He was
very coldly received by the crowd of lookers-on.
Some serious movements in Italy are evidently in-
tended, for several superior officers of high reputation
have received commands quite inconsistent with the
supposition of a small army.
Lieut.-General VAILLANT,' president of the com-
mittee of the fortifications of Paris, is appointed com-
mander of the Engineers of the expeditionary army of
the Mediterranean.
Lieut.-General DE ROSTOLAN, permanent inspector
of the musket practice schools at Vincennes, is ap-
pointed
corps.tedcoander of the 2d Infantry division of the
same
General THIRY, employed at Lyons, is appointed to
the command of the Artillery of the same corps.
General MORRIS, employed at Chalons-sur-Saone,
is appointed to the cavalry brigade of the same corps.
Colonel DE TESTAN, formerly aide-de-camp of Mar-
shal SOULT, is called from the army of the Alps to fill
the functions of chief of the etat major-general of the
same corps.
In fine, several other superior officers have received
appointments in the expeditionary army, which now
amounts to 20,000 men of all arms, and on the scale
of what is called a grand army.
The Debate gives an analysis of the returns of the
whole i 6 departments.

BOURSE.—PARIS, MONDAY, MAY 21.

THREE o'ocLocK.—To-day there was a tremendous
fall in the French Funds. They have fallen fully 7 per
cent. since Saturday, and no less than 11 per cent. since
last Wednesday. The fall to-day is principally owing
to the dislocation of the Ministry, and to the manifesto
of the Emperor of Russia, which latter is considered as
being particularly warlike. This, coming with the suc-
cess of the Socialists at the elections, has had a most
depressing effect. The alarm among the public is
rather on the increase than otherwise. Many think that
we are at the commencement of a great and important
crisis. Exchange on London (30 days), 25 50 ; ditto

(90 days), 25 35.
