beginning again to look up, and purchases to be made.
The distress is Lisbon is little mitigated. The high
Vice of provisions continues, and the long subsisting
disturbances cause the markets to be badly supplied. It
is next to an impossibility to get a pound of mutton fit
to eat. The oranges this se.,-up have been very inferior,
and the state of Setubal cuts off our usual supply from
that quarter. This dearth of fruit is felt the more be-
cause the summer heats have set in here within the last
few days, and are of unusual intensity. Much injury
has been done within a very short period to wheat, In-
dian corn, and other cereals, the plants at this period
being so tender and easily dried up. The fierceness of
the heat for nearly a week has been perfectly tropical,
injured_ and has even the vines. Some nights the heat
has been of equal intensity as during the day, and the
thermometer at times has stood at 100 deg. of Fahren-
heit in the shade.

POSTSCRIPT, FIVE O'CLOCK, P.M.—All difficulties
and heartburninga connected with St. Julian's have at
length been overcome or quieted. The prisoners have
taken possession, but not till cases of typhus had ap-
peared. The disembarkation of the last of the prisoners
was completed this day about noon. Some of them were
In a dreadful state, in consequence of the overcrowding
of the vessels and the total absen :e of ventilation, clean-
sing, and coinmissariat. Sir 11. Seymour's exertions
have been incessant up to this moment in endeavouring
to procure all possible appliances for the prisoners' ac-
commodation and well-being. The native authorities do
tot seem quite to understand that men whose crime
though grievous is still only of opinion, are not to bi
treated with vindictive persecution. Some difficulty was
raised as to p,iving up the entire control of St. Julian's to
the allies; but Sir H. Seymour has happily overcome this
obstacle.
There are some iodic:l6°ns of a wish entertained by
both Das Antas and Si da Bandeira to accept an honour-
able compromise. Under such circumstances, her Faith.
ful Majesty would du wrong to withhold the clemency
which she set out by demonstrating.

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SENATE
OF THE UNIVESITY OF CAMBRIDGE.

London, June 9, 1847.
Gentlemen,—Encouraged by the sugges'lons of many members
of the Senate who are entitled to my confidence and r spect, I ven-
ture to announce my Intention of offering myself as a Candidate for
the representation of the University of Cambridgo.
In seeking a distinction which I should value more highly than I
can express, I feel it my duty to make my grateful avowal that I
owe to Cambridge whatever may have been useful in my past life ;
and should I be honoured with your confidence, I shall prove my
attachment to the University by a steady and unremitting endeavour
to promote its interests.

31y
friend occupations, which have withdrawn me from political
controversy, have taught me moderation by enabling me to appre-
ciate and respect the good qualities and motives of public men of all
parties. I think it right, however, to decla e that my political opi-
nions are in accordance with those of her Majesty's present Govern-
ment, whom I shall gladly support its the fulfilment of the pledges
which they gave on entering into office, to take the best means of
preserving our valuable institutions, by addressing themselves to
sound and practical me sures for the improvement and elevation of
the social, moral, and religious condition of the people.

A sum At more than equal to the valne of the policies is invested
in the public securities, in the names o the trustees, so as to Le at
all times available.
At the last quinquennial meeting there was added a bonus to the
Life Polleies equal to 25 per cent. on the sums paid, and a bonus of
5 per cent. was added to the Shares, in addition to the payment of
the annual interest.
For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a specific sum,
without a prospective bonus, a new table at lower rates has been
calculated, on which, as well as on the , participating scale, one-half
the premium may remain on interest at 5 per cent. for five years,
thus enabling a person to insure his life for 1,0001. on the immediate
payment of the premium for 5001. only.
The following are the annual Premiums for the Assurance of 100/.
for the whole Life, one-half of which may remain for five years by
merely paying the interest annually at five per cent. ; and should
the Policy become a claim in the interim, the amount due will then
be deducted.

TO THE LADIES.

This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news-
paper on Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put Into
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me,
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan•street, Borough, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Griinstone, of the Herbary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using itabout four months,
and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than
I ever was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an Ils. bottle If they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in ftund-
ance, but ac a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume it is far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasnre in answering any
lady of respectability to the above fact...-3, Swan-street, Borough."
_ .

In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few
drops on the crown of the bead occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
revent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the
most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
)(lour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
is the erown of the heal ; if v:•ry bad, repeat it every quarter of an
our. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces

ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSIONERS.

Mr. lIINDLEY wishad to ask the question. of which
he had given notice, viz., as to whether there was any
inter on the part of the Government to bring in any
stthscquent m. asure in the event of the proposition for
itp- regulation of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners
+ailing; or whether they would suffer the Act William
IV. to fall?

Sir G. GREY said that provision had been made to
save the inconvenience th would be felt in the event of
such a contingency.
BUSI/sTESs FOR TO-MORROW (THIS DAY).
Lord MAHON wished to ask the Right Hon. Baronet
at the head of the Home Department what course it was
intended to pursue with respect to to-morrow ?
Sir G. GREY believed that the greater part of the
evening would be occupied by the Committee of Supply,
and should that be the case it was not proposed to take
any important debate towards the end of the night.
London, England, 1847-04-23

GAS COMPANIES.

Mr. HUME moved for a statement from every gas
company established by Act of Parliament in the
United Kingdom, stating the several Acts of Parliament
under which established, the rates per 1,000 cubic feet
at which each company or corporation have supplied gas
in each year since 1820, or if later established, in each
year from the year the company commenced to supply
gas, and the price of the best coals in each year for the
same period ; also stating the amount of fixed capital of
each gas company, and the rate per cent. of dividend to
the shirt holders or proprietors on their shares in each
year during that time.—Agreed to.

•_
EAST INDIA. COMPANY'S SECRET PAPERS.
Mr. HUME desired to know, whether the Goverm-
ment hal any objection to his motion for a list of secret
papers laid before the Court of Directors of the East
India Company by the Board of Control, since January,
1840, dis:ingutshiag those papers that were kept in
secret Court of Directors.
Sir J. 11013 HOUSE said, that his great objection was
tliat if they were given they would no longer reimiim
si-cret; and, in Let, it would be impossible to furnish
their.
Mr. HUME said that all ho wanted was a list of the
papers, and not what they contain( d. Supposing the
paper was on st,am-boats let the paper be named as
such ; if on negotiation, let it receive that tale. He
would, however, postpone it.
EDUCATIONAL PLAN.

Colonel LINDSAY presented a petition from Wake.
field against the G,verionetit educational grant.
MILITARY TRANSPORTATION".
Mr. HOPE wished to ask a question of which he had
givk n notice. It had relation to the transportation of
military offenders. He understood that in future it was
intended to convey them, at least, from India to the
Cape of Good Hope. He asked if this were correct,
and that, also, in case of transportation from England,
whether a different arrangement was to prevail? He
wished likewise to know whether the arrangement was
made with the concurrence of the colonial authorities?
Mr. HAWES said the Hon. Gentleman's questions were
longer than the motion of which he had given notice. Re-
garding transportation from the colonies, it was arranged.
that military convicts from the Mauritius and India
should proceed to the Cape of Good Hope, where a depot
was established for their reception. With regard to
the support of these establishments, they were not to be
supported out of the Colonial fund, but out of the Im-
perial treasury. No other provision was in contem-
plation at present.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)
........___...............-......
CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
During the present week a very limited supply of Wheat
of home produce has come to hand coastwise, as well as by
land carriage and sample. To-day the quantity of that de-
scription of Grain on offer was unusually small, owing to
which, and to increased attendance of buyers, the demand
was active, at an advance of from Is. to ir. some instances
2s. per quarter, and at which a good clearance was effected.
A goad arrival of foreign Wheat has taken place, yet a large
quantity was taken on French account at Is. to 2s. per quarter
more money. Although the supply of foreign Barley was
good, the trade was firm, at full prices. The quantity of Malt
on show was not large, yet the transactions were wholly
retail, at unaltered currencies. Nearly 20,000 quarters of
foreign Oats have come in. All kinds moved off readily,
at Is. per quarter more money. Beans, Peas, and Flour were
quits as dear, with a steady inquiry,

The Committee was occupied the whole of the day in hear-

The Committee adjourned at Four o'clock until to-morrow
(this day).

GROUP XVIII.
CHELTENHAM AND OXI'O&D LINE.
The Committee on this Group assembled to-day at Twelve
o'clock; the Earl of Lincoln in the Chair.
The evidence taken was in continuation of that yesterday,
and principally given by Mr. Engall, and Mr. Bewley, a
banker at Cheltenham, and Mr. Vivian, the Member for
Swansea. The first two of these three gentlemen testified to
the feeling of the inhabitants of Cheltenham being very
strong in favour of the project of the Great Western Company
Mr. Vivian stated that in his opinion, and in the opinion
of all those with whom he had come in contact, the Great
Western line was by far the best of the two. The line would
shorten the distance between London and Swansea by five
miles, and would give great facilities for the transport of
minerals from South Wales.
Mr. Lewis, a magistrate of South Wales, gave similar
testimony.
Mr. Davies, Member for the County of Carmarthen,
confirmed the previous evidence, and stated that he
had received a memorial from the county town, re-
questing him to support the Bill in Parliament. He
was a director of the St uth Wales Railway, and
could say that that line was in active course of construction.
So far as he was acquainted with the mineral district of
Merthyr Tidvil, he believed that great facilities would be
given for the transport of the produce, but he was not aware
that there was to be a floating bridge to cross the river
Severn

Dr. Gibney, senior physician of the hospital at Chel-
tenham, and who has been residing in that place for the last
38 years, testified to the advantage which the line would be
to Vie town in the removal of a bad neighbourhood, and by
permitting the access of fresh air not only to the hospital but
to the houses near to it. Within the last few days he had
been over the property which would be removed for the rail-
way, and he could say that the places were a disgrace to
the town. On many accounts the proposed station of the
Great Western Railway would be the best of the two. Ac-
cording to the present arrangements the hospital would have
to be removed to the distance of a mile and a-half from its
present site. but there was to be a branch dispensary, so
that no inconvenience would be felt from the change.
Several other witnesses were pzamined relative to the re-
spective advantages of the opposing lines in their course
through Cheltenham, and the Committee adjourned at Four.
London, England, 1847-04-23

MINSTER.

Mr. BOUVERIE postponed the motion of which he
had given notice, relative to the refusal of the Vicar of
Warminster to bury Sarah Garrett, a pauper of that
union, till that day week.
BISHOPRIC OF ST. ASAPH.
Mr. COLLETT, in moving for copies of all corre-
spondence with the Bishop of Bangor, of any case sub-
mitted to the law officers of the Crown, and of their
opinion on the subject, previously to the appoint•
ment of a Bishop of St. Asaph, in July, 1846
said that he would trouble the House with very few ob-
servations, because, although he had not been in com-
munication with the Government, he had every hope
that his motion would be acceded to. It would be re-
membered that in the early part of last session
he had taken the liberty of asking the First
Lord of the Treasury the following question:
whether there was any intention, in the event
of creating the new Bishopric of M. nche,ter, it was also
determined to unite the sees of Barigor an i St. Asaph.
(The Hon. Member then prec ed .d to read from the jour-
nals the debate which had taken place in the beginning
of the session.)
Mr. FERRAND—I rise to order. The Ron. Member
has read a part of a debate which took place in this
House in the early part of the Benton.
