TOVirNSHEND PEERAGE.

.Mr. T. CLARKE appeared at the bar of the House, as
solicitor of the Marquis of Townahend, and stated, in
answer to questions put to him by Mr. Greene, that he
was authorised to act as solicitor for the Marquis of
Townahend in all matters referring to the Townshend
Peerage Bill.
Mr. STUART then moved that the petition relative
to the Townshend Peerage Bill (presented 31st May)
be now taken into consideration.

The petition was con.idered accordingly, and ordered
to be laid upon the table of the House.
Mr. STUART then moved that notice of the first
meeting of the Committee to Mr. Thomas Clarke, the
solicitor of the Marquis Townshend (who is in Italy),
may be deemed good service on the Marquis Townshend.
—Motion agreed to.

GLASGOW, NULSTON, AND BARHEAD

RAILWAY.

On the motion that this Bill be read a third time,
Mr. HUME said the Glasgow, Paisley and Ayr, and the
Glasgow and Kilmarnock, were the two Bills, and he
merely rose to ask the House whether, when they had
proof before them that a conspiracy had existed for
twenty-one years, by which the public had been injured,
they would pas the Bill ?
Lord PALMERSTON said that the Hon. Member
was mistaken in the supposition that the three Bills were
connected. The Bill now before the House had nothing
to do with the monopoly of which he complained.
Mr. HASTIE also gave a similar assurance.
Mr. HUME would then postpone his observations till
Friday next.
The Glasgow, Neilston, and Barrhead Bill was then
read a third time and passed.

its harbour, on which, since the year 1830, no less a swat
than 600,000% had been expended, the Committee should at
once express their sense of the encroachments of the com-
pany by refusing the Bill.
Mr. Crichton, Lloyds' agent at Dundee, Mr. Jack, har-
bour master at Dundee, Captain Nish, Mr. Taylor, ship-
owner, Mr. Capesly, Mr. Gait, licensed pilot, Broughty
Ferry, all gave evidence of the danger which would arise,
and the impediment which would be given to the navigation
of the Tay, by the establishing of a ferry from Broughty
Castle to the opposite shore.
Mr. Walker, C.E., considered that the construction of the
Tay at Broughty Castle was a serious drawback to the Tay,
and any construction that would tend to perpetuate it would
necessarily be an increased evil.
The Committee adjourned till to-morrow.

COUNTY ELECTION POLLS BILL.

On the motion being read for the second reading of
this Bill,
Sir G. GREY said he agreed in the principle of the
Bill, and should consequently support it with his vote;
but he considered that such a measure ought not to be
passed until the Quarter Sessions could revise the list of
voters ; besides, if it was passed during the present ses.
sion, it would create much confusion. He, therefore,
begged to suggest that the Hon. Gentleman who had
brought forward the Bill should postpone it until a future
occasion.
Mr. FREWIN said he had wished to have carried
the Bill through Parliament in the present session, in
order that it might operate during the ensuing general
election ; but, after what had been stated by the Right
lion. Baronet, he should withdraw the Bill.
Bill withdrawn accordingly.

REMARKABLE CASE of RESTORATION.
A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy
the defects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls,
a gentleman residing at Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842,
on returning from if arlestone Market to Weyhred, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several months' duration, during which period his hair con-
tinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly
bald as if his head had been shaved ;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel,
then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for
his lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was Induced to try th•
effect of ROWL AND!S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying
to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was
used the growth recommenced, and he has new to ho st of a very
thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity,
that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl,
the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly
for itself to require observation.—Bas Messenger.

the words " ROWLAND'S MACASS XR OIL " on the wrapper.

Nothing but the total abrogation of that enactment
which was speciously carried through Parliament in
1844, under the plea that it was requisite to prevent
further " alterations and vicissitudes in that medium
of exchange which regulates the value of every
article in the country"—nothing, we say, but the
total abrogation of that enactment, or the miraculous
reversal of the eternal laws of Nature, can preserve
the empire from a more frightful panic than has ever
heretofore been experienced. It behoves the Govern.

CHELTENHAM AND OXFORD.

The Committee, comprising the Earl of Lincoln, in the
chair, Captain Jones, the Hon. Mr. Smythe, Mr. M. J.
O'Connell, and Sir Walter James, met this morning at twelve
o'clock.
Mr. ALEXANDER, Q.C., opened at very considerable
length on behalf of the owners of property, insisting chiefly
on the loss and inconvenience which would be experienced
by the people of Cheltenham by the abstraction of the
water in the sand bed in the first place, and from the ul-
timate derangement of its flow. ,The Learned Gentleman
intimated, in the course of his observations, that he meant
to call witnesses. Among the witnesses which he should
cite would be a gentleman who was engaged by Sir R. Mur-
chison to edit a second edition of his geological works so far
as Cheltenham was concerned. There were a number of
other eminent geologists, he said, whom he should also call,
and concluded a long and elaborate speech with expressing
his conviction that their evidence would overpower that of
Mr. Brunel.
The Committee adjourned at four o'clock.

act as a salutary warning to youth and maturity, and by its perusal
