THE LAMP PHENOMENON.
YOUNG'S PATENT OXYDATOR, price
55., renders Common Oil equal to the, finest Sperm
in every kind of Lamp, without requiring the smallest altera-
tion of the Lamp itself. This advantage is without any draw-
back, or Solar Lamp annoyances, viz., no smell or smoke, no
greater consumption of oil, no breakage of lamp glasses nor
waste of lampl cottons, no extra heat, nor additional trouble
of management; in fact, there is nothing to indicate that the
Lamp is not burning the finest Sperm Oil. To insure its pro-
per action, it is only requisite to send the Chimney Glass Holder
of the Lamp, or to state the depth and diameter of it.

HIGIIWORTII.—Six weeks ago an individual of
this parish was openly charged With an attempt to poison his
wife, by administering to her a quantity of arsenic: in a bottle
of medicine. Having heard, through the kindne-s of a friend,
that a warrant was out for his apprehension, the felloW, of
course took himself qu etly off; and notwithstanding he has
since held frequent communications, both personally and by
letter, with various individuals in the town—notwithstanding
an assignment and sale of his property has already taken place,
and the universally admitted tact that had hut ordinary vigi-
lance been used, the. man might have been secured—indeed
several respectable individuals boast of having seen him in the
town—he is still at large, and likely to remain so, since no
efficient means are being used for his apprehension. Now had
some hungry wretch stolen a sheep or a lamb, or even a few
turnips of value of 2d. to appease his hunger, or had the
life of a horse or a cow, been attempted by similar means,
scores of persons would have joined heart, hand, and purse, for
the purpose of bringing the unhappy delinquent to justice.—
Wilts Independent.
Rear-Admiral Sir Francis Mason, C. 8., will
proceed to his command in the Mediterranean in the Impreg-
nable, and hoist his flag on board the Howe, 120, on his
arrival.

On the fine estate of Ardennes, near Beau-
raing, purchased a few years ago by the King of the Belgians,
there is a good mansion, but his Majesty has determined to
build a new summer palace on the spot, called the Trou du
Serpent, and architects have been sent to different countries
to take drawings of several remarkable buildings, which are to
be submitted to his Majesty's choice. The new royal resi-
dence will stand on the brow of a steep rock, rising from the
river Lesse, and will bear the name of the Chateau du Prince.
Meantime workmen are employed in erecting a tower, sixty
feet high, on an eminence, opposite the royal mansion, whence
an extensive prospect may be enjoyed. Barracks are to be
built near the new palace, and the expenses of the works will
amount to several millions of francs.—Brussels Gazette.

The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that as the Bill
which he had presented to the House the other evening- for
the Better Administration of Justice in England had
already passed their Lordships' House, and was pre-
cisely in the same state in which it had been left by the
House of Commons at the close of the last Session,
he trusted their Lordships would see no objection to its
being then read a second time, in order that it might be
considered in Committee on Monday next.

Lord BIZOITGIIAIII saw no objection to the pro-
position of his Honourable and Learned Friend,
inasmuch as his objections to the Bill would be more
properly considered in Committee. He had no objec-
tion to the principle of the Bill, therefore he should not
oppose the second rending.
The Bill was then read a second time, and
ordered to be committed on Monday.
BILL. OF INPEMNITY.

The LORD CHANCELLOR: said he considered it
his duty to inform the House that a certain Noble
Lord, u.fter he had taken the oaths, had been guilty of
a most curious omission. He had omitted to subscribe
to the roll of Parliament, and by so doing had subjected
himself to certain penalties. He proposed therefore to
introduce a Bill to indemnify the Noble Lerd from the
consequences of the omission, and on Monday next lie
should move that the standing orders be suspended, in
order to enable the Bill to pass forthwith.

ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE.
On the motion of Viscount DUNCANNON their
Lordships then adjourned to Monday next.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, Aug. 30.

The SPEAKER having taken the Chair a few minutes
before Four o'Clock, Sir S. Canning took the oaths
and his sear.

Mr. S. CRAWFORD presented a petition from
132 working people of the vicinity of Newcastle-upon-
Tyne, which stated, " That the Petitioners heard with
joy the declaration of Lord John Russell,.that it was her
_ _

Most GraCiouS Majesty's intention to dissove her Parlia-
ment and appeal to the people ; that your Petitioners
accordingly proceeded to the place of election, but
were told they were no part of the people,
and had no right to take part in the election ;
that her Majesty's intention was thus rendered of no
effect. Petitioners pray—That you will address the
Queen to send you all back again to the people ; having
first enacted that all her Majesty's adult male population
of 21 years and upwards should be allowed to vote.
Petitioners further state, if such a law had existed
previous to-the late election, instead of a few only of
the late Parliament of blessed memory being displaced,
the services of nearly the whole would have been dis-
iignsed with."

Mr. T. DUNCOMBE presented petitions from Leeds,
Nottingham, and Durham, praying the House to coin-

mit political suicide by addressing her Majesty to dis-
solve the present Parliament after having passed an Uni-
versal Suffrage Bill.
Mr. VILLIERS presented a petition from 180 inhabi-
tants of Montreal,in Upper Canada, stating that they
approved of the proposed changes in the tariff of duties
on provisions imported into the West Indies. The peti-
tioners further prayed that that House would be further
pleased to repeal the duties upon beef; pork, butter,
wheat, flour, and other articles, the produce of Canada,
and allow them to be imported into British ports free of
duty.
1)r. BOWRING presented a petition from a working.
man, praying for a repeal of the Corn-laws ; a step de-
manded by the sacred principles of religion, as well as of
commercial policy.
Sir VALENTINE BLAKE presented a petition,
praying that all Members of Parliament might be ex-
empted from the necessity of taking the oath of supre-
macy in as full and ample a manner as persons profess-
ing the Roman Catholic religion are exempted.
The SPEAKER having observed that the petition
was signed by the Hon. Member himself,
Sir VALENTINE BLAKE said he had already
stated that the petition was signed by an Hon. Member
of the House.—(Great laughter.)
MR. GOULBOURN objected to the petition being
accepted.
The SPEAKER having declared that the petition
could not formally. be presented by the Hon. Member
himself,

'The petition was withdrawn amidst the loud laughter
of the House.

Petitions against the election returns for the boroughs
of Wakefield, Sudbury, BritlpOrt, and Richmond, were
presented and laid on the table of the House.
Mr. WALLACE gave notice that he should move for
a Select Committee to inquire into the management of
the Post-office department, with a view to promoting
greater economy and efficiency; also, that he should early
next Session move for a Bill for abolishing the Oleo of
Postmaster-General, and placing the duties of that de-
partment in the hands of CommiSsioners ; also, that he
would call the attention of the House to the evidence in
the report of the Select Committee appointed to inquire
into the Supreme Court of Scotland, and to the propriety
of reducing the number of the Judges of the
_Courts of
Session, from thirteen to nine.
ANSWER TO THE ADDRESS.

Lord M. HILL appeared at the Bar, and said that her
Majesty had been waited upon pursuant to the resolution
of that Hon. House, and he was desired by her Majesty
to read to the House the following most gracious answer
to the Address of her faithful Commons :

"It is the greatest satisfaction to me to find that the
House of Commons are deeply sensible of the import-
ance of those considerations to which I directed their
attention in reference to the commerce and revenue of the
country, and the laws which regulate the trade in corn,
and that in deciding on the course which it may
be desirable to pursue, it will be their earnest desire to
consult the welfare of all classes of her Majesty's sub-
jects. Ever anxious to listen to the advice of my Par-
liament., I will take immediate measures for the forma-
tion of a new Administration."
RESIGNATION OF MINISTERS.
At a few minutes past five o'clock,

Lord JOHN RUSSELL rose to address the House,
which was then" extremely crowded, and the
most profound silence instantly prevailed. The Noble
Lord, who appeared much affected, and who was
at times quite inaudible in the gallery, said—l have
now, Sir, to state to the House that after the division of
Friday night her Majesty's Ministers thought it their
duty at once to advise the answer which has just been
communicated to the House, and humbly to tender their
resignations to her Majesty, to enable her Majesty
to form a new Administration. Her Majesty
was graciously pleased to accept their resigna-
tions ; and we therefore now only hold office until
other Ministers shall be appointed to the offices which
we respectively hold. Perhaps the House will allow
me on this occasion, and before I make the motion with
which I intend to conclude, to state some considerations,
in saying which I shall as much as possible avoid mat-
ters of controversy, and debate—to state the impressions
I. entertain with respect to late events. It was
our duty, as we believed, to propose the measures
which were proposed in the late Parliament in reference
to the trade and commerce of the country, and which
we thought essential to its interests. Upon being de-
feated with regard to one of these measures we advised
her Majesty, as soon as the business of the Session had
terminated, to resort to a dissolution of Parliament. That
dissolution having taken place, and the new Parliament
having been assembled on the earliest possible opportunity.
we have advised her Majesty to submit to them the consi-
deration of measures of the same nature, and to usk for tLe
opinion of Parliament in reference to those measure:,.
It has pleased the House of Commons by a large majority
to address her Majesty, stating that her Ministers did
not enjoy the confidence of Parliament and the
country. This decision left us no other pact
