land, and to legislate for the causes which operate on
that distress in Ireland. The Noble Lord said he
would not express any opinion on the prayer of the pe-

ABSENTEE PROPRIETORS (IRELAND).

Motion made, and Question put, " That inasmuch as the

causes of social disorganisatio❑ of that Kingdom, it is ex-
pedient to impose a charge by way of Special Assessment, in
aid of local objects of an useful nature, upon the estates of
absentee proprietors, with a view to make some compensation
for the evils resulting from their non-residence." The Honse

MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS.—The Registrar-
General's return for the week ending Saturday, March 13,
shows a decrease in the mortality of London, the number of
deaths being 1,026, while the average for the season is 1,068.
The fatality of diseases of the respiratory organs, which was
so remarkable a few weeks ago, now nearly corresponds with
the usual amount. Small-pox, of which there were seven
fatal cases, is evidently on the increase. The registrar of
Haggerstone West states that five deaths from this disease
had occurred in one family within three weeks, and that a
sixth child, who alone remained, was lying dangerously ill.
The parents had repeatedly refused to permit their children
to be vaccinated. The number of births registered during
the week is 1,435; 740 males, 695 females. The mean tem-
perature of the week was 35.7.
WEST INDIA SUGAR. CANES AND BANANAS.—A
supply of these tropical luxuries has been consigned to
Keeling and Hunt, the colonists being desirous of adding to
our spring and summer productions, which, by the aid of the
royal mail steamers are brought to this country in a few
days. These articles are but a precursor to the importation
of piae. apples, which will ECM follow the above novelties for
cQuiiiiintlm lil Lusland. . .
London, England, 1847-03-19

REMARKABLE CASE of RESTORATION.
A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy
the lICICCIS of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls,
a gentleman residing at Worthaon, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842,
on returning from tiarlestone Market to We bred, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe is fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several months' duration, during which period his hair con-
firmed 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 the
effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSArt 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 loslir his hair it evinced no tendency to curl,
the new growth is early and strong. This fact sneaks too strongly
for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger.
110 :VIAND'S MACASAAII OIL preserves and reproduces the
Hair;
_prevents it from falling off or turning Grey; Changes Grey
Hair to its Original Colour; frees it from Scurf and Dandruff, and
makes it beautirully soft and curly.
4.4. Beware of "spurious compounds" under the title of "MA-
CASSAR OIL," some under the " implied" sanction of Royalty and
he Government Departments, with similar attempts at deception.
ROWLAND'S MACASS 11t OIL is sold by the proprietors, at 20,
HATTOX-OARDEN LONDON, and all respectable Chemists and
Pert umers.

PATENT /ERIAL WHEELS, upon which
CARRIAGES will run perfectly easy, and free from all noise

whatever.

J. WOODALL, having obtained a Licence from Mr. Thomson, the
Patentee, to make them, they are surrounded by a leather tube,

present great advantages ; with them Carriages are not only free
from noise, but the motion is as gentle as floating, and a saving of
100 per cent. in the draught. They can be applied to every descrip-

through the town.

railway s as a means of employing the people.
EDUCATION.
Mr. HINDLEY presented petitions from several Bap.
fist' congregations against the Government scheme of
education, and moved that they should be printed with
the votes.

DECCAN PRIZE MONEY.
Sir DE LACY EVANS said, seeing the Right Hon.
Baronet the Pri sident of the Board of Control in his
te;ace, begged to ask the question of which he had
given notice—whether there was any likelihood of a
speedy decision in this matter, as parties who stood in
need of it were deprived of it?
Sir J. C. 110BHOUSE said he had answered the
question already, some three weeks ago, but he had
no objection to state it again to the House. He
begged now to state, that since that date there had been
an adjustment, and the Government was now ready to
pay over to the trustees the sum of 2,2001.
S►rDE LACY EVANS inquired whether the amount
of the recompense had been derided upon ?
Sir J C. HOBHOUSE said that that question had
been settled some time ago between the commissioners
of the Deccan prize money and the Court of Directors.
Mr. HUME asked whether the observation applied to
the 112,000/. ?
Sir J.C. HOBHOUSE intimated that it did.
POOR-LAW (IRELAND).

Mr. J. O'CONNELL presented a petition, very nu
merously signed by the inhabitants of New Ross, com-
plaining that the present poor-law operated vi ry inju-
riously- to them, and praying that a better system of
election for the guardians of the poor might be adopted.
They prayed that out-door relief might be given to the
able-bodied poor. They stated that the poor-law, as
now administered, interfered with the religious dif-
ferences of the country; that the greater part of the
inhabitants of Ireland were Roman Catholics, and that
they had no sufficient influence in the direction of the
poor-law; that this interference with religious opinions
was greatly to be deplored; and that, unless a better
principle were adopted in the new poor law, it was the
impression of the petitioners that that [louse was totally
incompetent to make just and sufficient laws for Ireland.
Mr. J. O'CONNELL also presented a petition from
the Rev. Mr. Duggan, parish priest in Ireland, com-
plaining of a misrepresentation in the reports of Captain
Lynch.

ROYAL ASSENT.

Black Rod, appear. d at the table, and summoned the

given to certain Bills (for which see Lords' report).
OPENING OF THE HOUSE OF LORDS.
Mr. HUME wished to ask—he did not, however, see
the First Commissioner of the Woods and Forests
in his place, or he would have asked—whether as the
new House of Lords was to be shortly opened, any
accommodation had been made for the Members of the
House of Commons? for he (Mr. Hume) could not see
any.

ought to be considered an exception from the ordinary rule
of legislation, and a special case ought to be made out in each
instance for authorising such a course. In the present in-
stance the decision of this question must involve an inquiry
into the general merits of the scheme, which would appear
to be scarcely within the order of reference made by the House
of Commons, and the examination of the necessary evidence
on such a subject might cause a delay which would be in-
compatible with the object of these reports. Under these
circumstances, the Commissioners are of opinion that they
will best discharge their duty by simply calling the attention
of the Committee to the subject by the foregoing observations.

The interest never flags throughout. It gives a most vivid picture
of Oid German Chivalry."—Weekly Chronicle.
" We know not when we have been more—or indeed so much—

popular of all Mr. James's Novels, for it is compounded of those
mrtcrials which delight all novel readers."—John Bull.
" Mr. James has laid the scene or thi s tale of the 15th century, on

DESTRUCTION OF THE THEATRE AT
CARLSRUHE.

GRAND DUCHY or BADEN.—On Sunday, March 7,
mass was performed at the Roman Catholic church, for the
sufferers who perished in the conflagration of the 20th
of February, Mozart's Requiem was celebrated by the
whole body of performers of the Royal Opera, and of
the Royal Chapel. The entire body of the church was
thronged by persons of every class, who manifested the
most lively sympathy for the unfortunate sufferers. On
the 10th of March, a circular was issued in Bremen.
inviting the co-operation of all the theatres in
Germany to a benefit on behalf of those who
Suffered from the destruction of the theatre at
Carisruhe, and stating that Bremen, although so
far removed from the scene of suffering, desires
to be foremost in the laudable example of send-
ing succour. The announcement says, as the
theatre has caused the affliction, so let the
theatres now afford consolation. This timtly sympathy
Will, it is hoped, in some, degree ameliorate the deep
suffering, and afford seasonable relief to many a be-
reaved heart and hapless orphan, and thus the detailed
accounts of this calamity given in our journal may yield
beneficial fruit.

THE HAGUE, MARCH 16.—The Members of the First
Chamber of the States-General are summoned to meet
an the 24th of March next.

The Cologne Gazette of yesterday published the
following article :—The Dutch Government is at
this moment negotiating with the Zollverein and
with France, in order to obtain facilities for its
commercial relations with those new states. Hol-
land is especially desirous to extend its maritime
trade and to retain the commerce of the Rhine, not-
withstanding the competition of Belgium. The cor-
respondents of several journals are, however, mistaken
when they affirm that secondary concessions have
been offered by the Cabinet of the Hague in
exchange for the favours which it desires to obtain
from the Zollverein. If we are well informed
it is contemplated to grant to the states of the Zollverein
in the Dutch ports the same great advantages which
o" ee
r known
men tfs r o
on
m
they enjoy in the port of Antwerp. As a condition " sine
qua non" Holland insists on the abolition, or a considerable
goodreduction
authority, of th
that tolls os
