ESSENCE OF LIFE.
This valuable Medicine, which for nearly a century has
maintained so high a reputation in Germany and other parts
of the Continent, as to have met with the protection of Imperial
and Bavarian privileges, can now be obtained in London.
It was discovered by Dr. Kiesow, an eminent physician of Augs-
burg, and Counsellor to the King of Bavaria ; and as an effectual
remedy in removing the various diseases incident to the abdominal
viscera it stands unparalleled. In all cases of dyspepsia or indiges-
tion, which tend generally to headache, giddiness, or nervous debility,
it yields immediate relief.

Further particulars may be learnt in a Medical Treatise, gratis,
upon its uses, at the depot, 46, Upper Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-
square, where it is sold in bottles, at 2s. 6d. and 4s. 6d. each ; and
of Messrs. Barclay and Co., 95, Farringdon-street ; Messrs. Hannay,
and Co., 63, Oxford-street ; Mr. J. Johnston, 68, Cornhill, and 15
Greek-street, Soho ; Mr. J. Sanger, 150, Oxford-street ; and by all
chemists and patent medicine venders throughout the United King-
dom.—J. Oventston, sole agent by appointment, 46, Upper Charlotte-

Centralization is a word abhorred in the vocabulary
of Englishmen. We sympathise in that abhorrence.
vet we are decidedly in favour of the system of cen-
tralization as applied to the sanatory reform, In this
we protest that there is not the slightest contradiction

and one-sided, and, in the majority of instances,
despotic legislation ; detesting it from the dismal ex-

ing and rejecting it as incompatible with the great
;..,1 principle of civil liberty, we are yet willing, we are
Tet eager, we are yet most desirous to waive all our
t:
litipatuaes to the political influence of centralization
s and to see that influence turned to the moral and phy-
sical amelioration of the multitude, by the establish-
ri:ent of a central commission for the improvement of

HOSIERY.—The cotton hosiery trade, in all its
branches, is in much the same state as it has been for some
time past—the cut-up branches being the most depressed.
This depression has even reached the coarse hose of
Leicester. We understand the hosiery trade is rapidly
increasing in Philadelphia and the neighbourhood, and
agents have come over here to engage bleachers, dyers,
trimmers, ironcrs, and others, who are capable of finish •
ing hosiery goods. The silk glove branch is, if any-
thing, r:.ther worse ; but the season of the year should
be considered. The plain silk hose branch, now ex-
tremely limited, is a shade better, especially in the
neighbouring county of Derby. The knotted branch is
still in abeyance, and many good hands have gone into
the cut-up branch. The remnant of this once extensive
manufacture is principally at Mansfield.—Nottingham
Review.

We understand that it is the intention of Govern-
ment to erect forthwith a battery at Penlee Point, so as
to command Cawsand Bay. The Admiralty are deter-
mined to put the whole of the coast in a proper state of
defence, in consequence of which the building of the pro-
posed new bridge at Looe is suspended. A battery will
be erected at Looe harbour, so as to command the an-
chorage under Looe Island. The whole line of approach
from Looe to Plymouth is to be put into a state of de.
fence immediately.—Plymouth Journal.

THE ARMY.

DEATH OF GENERAL SIR WILLIAM ANSON, BART.,
K.C.B.—General Sit- William Anson, Bart, K.C.8., a'
Peninsular officer, and Colonel of the 47th (the Lan-
cashire) Regiment of Foot, died near Weedon, on Wed-
nesday last, in the 75th year of his age. Sir William
was 58 years in the service, having entered the army as
ensign, June 13, 1789. He skipped over the rank of
lieutenant, and obtained that of captain, April 25, 1793.
He never held the rank of Major, and was made a
lieutenant colonel, Sept. 28, 1797 ; colonel, Oct. 30 ;
major-general, June 4, 1811 ; lieutenant-general, Aug.
12. 1819 ; and general, Jan. 10, 1837. Sir William
Anson went to Holland with a brigade of Guards in
1793, and was present at the battle of Famars, and the
commencement of the siege of Valenciennes ; served
also during the whole of the severe winter campaign of
1794 and 1795, and retreat of the army ; and in all the
previous operations on the French frontier. Served also
in Sicily in 1806 and 1807 ; the campaign in Spain, in
1808-9, in command of Ist battalion Grenadier Guards,
including the battle of Corunna ; subsequently on the
expedition to the Scheldt. Placed on the staff in the
Peninsula, in 1811, and appointed to the command of a
brigade in the 4th division ; present at the battles of
Salamanca, Vittoria, Pyrenees, Nivelle, Orthes, and
Toulouse. For the above-mentioned battles Sir William
received a cross and three clasps. He held thecolonelcy
of the 47th from March 25, 1835. Sir William
was grand-nephew of the celebrated Admiral Lord
Anson, son of the late Viscount Anson, and uncle
of the present Earl of Lichfield, and brother to
General Sir George Anson, G.C,8., Colonel 4th Dragoon
Guards, and Lieutenant-Governor of Chelsea Hospital ;
only two senior on the list of generals. Sir William
Anson was created a baronet in 1831, two months after
the death of his wife. Three sons and three daughters
survive him, the eldest, now Sir John William Hamilton,
of the Royal Horse Guards, born in 1816.
DEATH OF MAJOR GRENVILLE.—This distinguished
officer, whose name has of late years been familiar in
military circles, owing to his connexion as partner with
the eminent firm of Sir John Kirkland and Co., expired
on Wednesday last at his residence in Pimlico, from the
effects of a bodily complaint. He entered the army in
1809 as ensign in the 69th Foot ; was promoted to a
lieutenancy in 1811 ; to a captaincy in 1819 ; and to a
majority by brevet in 1837. During the latter years of
his active service he was connected with the 2d Foot,
from which, in 1840, he retired with the full pay of a
captain. For several years the deceased served on the
staff as aide-de-camp to the Cot:inlander-in-Chief in the
Bombay Presidency.

Field-Marshal Sir George Nugent has caused new
clothing appointments to be made to the non commis-
sioned officers of bis regiment, the fith Foot, in conse-
quence of his recent promotion from the rank of general.
The gallant officer is in the 90th year of his age.
Lieut.-General Alderson and Major-General Fan-
shawe are appointed assistants to Sir John F. Burgoyne,
Inspector-General of Fortifications.

SECTION 4.

We have been, and we shall continue to be, true to
the policy which we have adopted, and to the engage-
ments we have entered into, respecting the marriage
either of Queen Isabella or of Donna Fernanda.
But, if the existing state of things should continue, or
should lead to any further results, we may be placed
abruptly in a contingency, in which we shall be-
1. Subjected to the absolute necessity of preventing
our policy from receiving, by the marriage either of the
Queen or the Infanta, a blow to which we could not
consent to submit. _ _

2. Released from all engagement with respect to either
marriage.
Which would be the result, in case the marriage,
either of the Queen or of the Infanta, with Prince Leo-
pold of Saxe Coburg, or with any other Prince not
descended from Philip V., should become probable or
imminent.

In that case we should be released from all engage-
ment, and free to act immediately in our own defence,
by demanding the hand either of the Queen or the In•
fauta, for the Duke de Montpensier.

READING, GUILDFORD, AND REIGATE

RAILWAY.
This was the petition of the above company, for leave
to bring in a Bill to make certain deviations in their
line, and to repeal the restricting clauses contained in
the Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Act of 1846, so far
as they related to the construction of a particular portion
of their line. The deviations were only two of a trifling
nature, one extending to a mile, and the other three-
quarters of a mile in length.
The petition was opposed by Mr. Charles PenxEs, on
behalf of several Owners, lessees, and occupiers of land,
and the Direct London and Portsmouth Railway Com-
pany, on the ground that the company were seeking for
powers which would seriously Injure both the land-
holders and the railway company. One portion of the
Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Railway will pass over
the same ground as the Direct Portsmouth ; but
.the
latter company by their Act have the option of making
this part of the railway, provided they do so and pur-
chase the land for the purpose within a give n
period of time. The present petition was for a
Bill to repeal that restriction, to enable the
Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Company at once to
complete their line in tact. The landowners, however,
object to this, on the ground that their land would be
cut up twice where Parliament had already decided
that it should only be disturbed once.
Mr. Examiner MAY said, it did not appear to him
that the standing orders had /been violated in any re-
spect. The question raised did not come within the
province of a standing-orders tribunal.—Standing orders
complied with.
BRISTOL AND EXETER RAILWAY.

This was the petition of the Bristol and Exeter Rail-
way for leave to introduce a Bill to make a branch from
Taunton to Castle Cary. 22 miles in length. The esti-
mated cost was 352,0001., and the engineer, Mr. Charles
Ha

tton Gregory.
The petition was against the plans, but no one ap-
pearing to support it, the customary formal proofs were
sent in, and the standing orders declared to be complied
with.

GLASGOW, PAISLEY, KILMARNOCK, AND
AYR RAILWAY (No. 5.)
This was the petition of the above company for
leave to introduce a Bill to make a new entrance and
station in Glasgow. The length was one mile and a
half, and the estimated cost 350,0001.

The formal proofs were found to be defective, inas-
much as one of the notices had not been served within
the time specified by the standing orders.
Mr. GRATIANE opposed the petition, on behalf of the
Caledonian Railway Company, and succeeded in sus-
taining one or two allegations as to inaccuracies in the
plans and sections.

DEATH OF GENER SIR WILLIAM ANSON, BART.,
K.C.B.—G enc.rA Sir kt. Mimi] Anson, Bart., K.C.8., a
Peninsular officer, and Colonel of the 47th (the Lan-
cashire) Regiment of Foot, died near Weedon, on Wed-
nesday last, in the 75th year of his age. Sir William
was 58 years in the service, having entered the army as
ensign, June 13, 1789. He skipped over the rank of
lieutenar.t, and obtained that of captain, April 25, 1793.
He never held the rank of Major, and was made a

major-general, June 4, 1811 ; lieutenant-general, Aug.
12, 1819 ; and general, Jan. 10, 1837. Sir William
Anson went to Holland with a brigade of Guards in
1793, and was present at the battle of Famars, and the
commencement of the siege of Valenciennes ; served
also during the whole of the severe winter campaign of
1794 and 1795, and retreat of the army ; and in all the
previous operations on the French frontier. Served also
in Sicily in 1806 and 1807 ; the campaign in Spain, in
1808.9, in command of Ist battalion Grenadier Guards,
including the battle of Corunna ; subsequently on the

of the present Earl of Lichfield, and brother to

the death of his wife. Three sons and three daughters
survive him, the eldest, now Sir John William Hamilton,
of the Royal Horse Guards, born in 1816.
DEATH OF MAJOR GRENVILLE.—This distinguished
officer, whose name has of late years been familiar in
military circles, owing to his connexion as partner with
the eminent firm of Sir John Kirkland and Co., expired

effects of a bodily complaint. He entered the army in
1809 as ensign in the 69th Foot ; was promoted to a
lieutenancy in 1811 ; to a captaincy in 1819 ; and to a
majority by brevet in 1837. During the latter years of

captain. For several years the deceased served on the
staff as aide-de-camp to the Commander-in-Chief in the
Bombay Presidency.

Chief Baron took occasion to remark upon the reckless
mode of their giving the verdict for a,sum larger than
even that claimed by the plaintiff's counsel, and which
wa4l not supportl d by the least evidence.
Mr. PEACOCK now moved to set that verdict aside.
The reason the cause was not defended arose from the
fact of the solicitor, who was instructed to defend the
cause, having kit the country, and the brief which he
had prepared, and which had since been found in his
offices, had not been handed to any counsel.
The LORD CHIEF BARON—The jury seemed to have
t)eon very greatly infected with the popular mania
against provisional committeemen, the verdict was a
most unaccountable one.—Rule granted.

BARNARD V. COLES.
This was an-action against the late proprietor of the
Rainbow Tavern, to recover the amount of a bond given
by Argent, the defendant's successor and alleged partner,
the plaintiff, and since the execution of which Argent
had become a bankrupt. The case was tried at the
Guildhall, and a verdict returned for plaintiff.
Mr. BRAMWELL now moved for a rule nisi for anew trial
on the ground of misdirection ; also. because the verdict
was againit evidence. Argent on taking the business, at
a rent for furniture, &c., had covenanted with defendant
not to order more than five pounds' worth of wine without
his knowledg and not to accept bills. This deed was to
the plaintiff; but, in summing up the case, the Lord Chief
Baron told the jury that it did not follow that plaintiff
had read the whole of it. This was the misdirection
complained of. The Learned Gentleman also contended
that the verdict was against evidence.
Rule nisi granted. -
London, England, 1847-01-16

LEE V. CADIROUX.

In this cause, which was tried at Guildhall Burin; the
last sittings before the Lord Chief Baron, a verdict was
returned for the plaintiff for the sum of 355/., with
liberty for the defendant to move to enter 'a nonsuit, or
turn it into a special verdict by consent of the parties,
should the Court be of opinion that the contract was
valid.

From the evidence given upon the trial, it appeared
that the plaintiff in the action was the airninistratrix of
Mr. Lee, who, during his lifetime, had purchased two
annuities, one immediate, and the other deferred, in the
National Loan Fund and Life Assurance Society, of
which society the defendant was the secretary.
The object of the present action was to recover from
the society the' sum of 3551. paid by the deceased, on
the ground that at the period of his entering into the
eontract he was not of sound mind. It appeared
that shortly after the purchase of the annuities in
question, the deceased was confined in several
lunatic asylume, and that he died in an unsound
defendant making the
any contract, state of mind. The question left for the jury to decide
notice t ra c t, n
by the Lord Chief Baron was, whether the plaintiff was,
andat thehatdimtehoe
fotfhea samesound;
or mind,was
the contract such an one as would reasonably be entered
into by a sane person, without fraud on the part of the
company. The jury found that he was of unsound mind
at the time of the contract, that the contract was per-
fectly fair, and that there was not slightest ground for
attributing fraud to the company.
Mr. GURNEY now moved, pursuant to leave given at

HOSIERY.—The cotton hosiery trade, in all its
branches, is in much the same state as ithas been forsome
time past—the cut-up branches being the most depressed.
This depression ha* even reached the coarse hose of
Leicester. We understand the hosiery trade is rapidly
increasing in Philadelphia and the neighbourhood, and
agents have come over here to engage bleachers, dyers,
trimmers, ironers, and others, who are capable of finish •
in g hosiery goods. The silk glove blanch is, if any-
thing, rather worse ; but the season of the year should
be considered, The plain silk hose branch, now ex-
tremely limited, is a shade better, especially in the
neighbouring county of Derby. The knotted branch is
still in abeyance, and many good hands have gone into
the cut-up branch. The remnant of this once extensive
manufacture is principally at Mansfield. —Nottingham
Review.

We understand that it is the intention of Govern-
ment to erect forthwith a battery at Penlee Point, so as
to command Cawsand Bay. The Admiralty are deter-
mined to put the whole of the coast in a proper state of
defence, in consequence of which the building of the pro-
posed new bridge at Looe is suspended. A battery will
be erected at Looe harbour, so as to command the an-
chorage under Looe Island. The whole line of approach
from Looe to Plymouth is to be put into a state of de.
fence immediately.—Plymouth Journal.
