THE IRON DUKE.—The arrival of an iron
s.ra-going vessel in our river, is an incident ct so much in-
terest from its novelty, that we have Lean tempted to pay
it a vi it, and to gather such particulars as might be de-
sirable to possess. The Courier had previously given us
AR article on the subject, but it is too meagre and unsais-
fitctory to be of much use to our merchants. The Iron
Duke was built at Glasgow, for the employ of Messr2.
George Hetiek and Co., of Waterford; and left that
port with a general cargo on the 6th July. He: outward
pass.ge was not marked with any peculiar difference from
tat of others which left at or about the same time, Alto-
gether the success of the first iron ship to this port must
be highly gr, tifying to those concerned in her, but we un-
derstand it is doubtful if even the Duke, with his iron
sides, will at any period equal the well tied wooden walls
of old England.—Friend of India.

All the instruments formerly employed for re-
lieving deafness are now far superseded by the Voice Conductors,
invented by It. Solomons and Co., No. 36, Old Bond.strect, and
No. 1, Old Jewry, City. From their ingenious and minute eon-
struc.tion (being only a quarter of an inch in diameter) they cannot
be perceived by the nearest bystander ; and while they enable deaf
persons to distinguish mixed and confused sounds, or the voice of
a distant speaker, they afford the most effectual relief to subjects
complaining of singing noises in the ear, and are altogether pro-
ductive of the most desirable results. Their Patent Spectacles
extend great relief to the visual organs, and from a combination of
properties which they possess, are vastly superior to those hitherto
employed. To such persons who closely apply their sight to read.
ing or any minute employment, but particularly by candle or lamp
light, they will be found of incalculable advantage. The highest
testimony to their superior merit is conveyed in the fact, that the
principal medical authorities in Europe use them, and strongly re_
commend their adoption to all persons who may require optical aid.
—N.B. In consequence of the various attempts to impose base
imitations on the public, and the Patentees being entirely uncon.
nected with persons advertising under the same name, their sub-
joined address should be cautiously noted, No. 36, Old Bond.
street, and No, 1, Old Jewry.

Mr. HUME wished to know whether t':e Noble
Lord would have any chjection to his moving for a re-
turn of the services of Lord Keane ?
Lerd J. RUSSELL said the motion stns rather an
unusual one, but he should have no objection to its
being made in the manner pointed out by the Hon.
Member.

Sir J. HOBHOUSE said the return had no con-
nection with the pension to Lord Keane, as that was a
pension for serviee3 agreeably to the Queen's Message.
After a few words from Sir DE LACY EVANS,
Mr. HUME moved for a statement of the military
aervicesofLord Keaue„—Agreed to.

Mr. W YSE moved for returns relative to education.
—Agreed to.

The House adjourned at a Qllarter past Seven
o'Clock to Monday.
