CHINA.

Mr. MACLEAN said that in reference to the present
misunder:tanding with China, and to the interruption of
the opium trade, he wished to ask the Noble Lord
whether any notice had been issued by Capt. Elliot, the
British Superintendent at Canton, to the following effect :
—" Demanding the delivery of opium by all persons holding
it into the hands of the British Superintendent without de-
lay, in order that the same might be delivered into the
hands of the Chinese Government, and he (the Superin-
tendent) would hold her Majesty's Government re-
sponsible to all holders of British grown opium, pro-
vided the same were delivered into his hands be-
fere six o'clock oa the evening of that day, otherwise
he declared her Britannic Majesty's Government wholly
free from all responsibility respecting such British-grown
opium." Ile wished to know if that was a correct abstract
from any document issued by Captain Elliot.
Lord PALMERSTON said, that as far as his recol-
lection served him, the extract was substantially correct
but, in consequence of his Noble Friend's mot;on last
night, all these papers would be produced.
Mr. M ACLE AN said, that after that, he wished to know
if Captain Elliot had not, in consequence, issued certi-
ficates on the British Government; and he also wished to
know if an answer of the followitl, description had
been returned to the person presenting those certificates :
" That having laid before the Lords Commissioners the
letter, and transmitted the certificates, he had received
their Lordships' commands to acquaint them that Parlia-
ment had placed no funds at their disposal to meet
such certificates ; and, to prevent any misconstruc-
tion, their Lordships' directed him to say, that it would
be made the subject of consideration by her Majesty's Go-
vernment, but that they did not propose to submit a vote
for the payment of such claims." He (Mr. Maclean) wished
to ask the Noble Lord whether it was the intention of Go-
vernment to act upon that letter, signed "Robert Gordon,"
and sent from the Treasury, with regard to those claims,
and whether it was their intention to repudiate or support
the course taken by Captain Elliot on the subject ?
Lord PALMERSTON said it was undoubtedly the in-
tention of her Majesty's Government to act in accordance
to the letter read, but as to what was their intention or.
other matters he was sure the House would at present
excuse him from stating.
Mr. MACLEAN then gave notice that he should call
the attention of the Howie to the subject.
BRITISH CLAIMANTS ON PORTUGAL.
Lord PALMERSTON, in answer to a question from
Viscount Sandon, said the Portuguese Government ap-
peared to manifest every desire to satisfy the British
claims. And that he had instructed her Majesty's Minister
at Lisbon on the subject.

THE TREATY OF BERGARA.

Mr. FECTOR seeing the Noble Lord the Secretary
of State for the Foreign Department in his place, wished
to know whether her Majesty's Government, or any
other person acting under their authority, t Jolt any part
in the negociations of Bergara ? He wished also to know
whether Government, directly or indirectly, sanctioned the
detention of the Princes of the Royal Family of Spain.
Lord PA LMERSTON said that strictly speaking her
Majesty's agents in Spain had not directly taken any part
in th a negociations of Bergara, as those negociations were
conducted by the Carlist Chiefs on the one hand
and the officers of the Queen of Spain on the other ; but
her Majesty's officers, military and naval, stationed on the
North Coast of Spain, did render their assistance, and
bring about that communication between the Carlist
Chiefs and the officers of the Queen of Spain, which led
to the Convention that had been referred to by the lion. Mem-
ber. The Convention itself was a purely Spanish transaction,
carried'on between two Spanish parties, without the direc-
tion or interference of any foreign power whatsoever.—
( Cheers ) With regard to the second question, he should
say, that the officers of her Majesty stationed on the
coast of Spain would, under similar circumstances, pursue
a similar course--(Cheers from the Ministerial benches.)
With regard to the third question, her Majesty's Govern-
ment had undoubtedly expressed a strong opinion that it
would not be consistent with the general interests of the
P .wers who had been parties to the Quadruple Treaty if
Don Carlos were left at liberty to return to Spain until
some arrangement had been entered into between him and
the Spanish Government.—( Cheers. )

The Times observes, with reference to Mr. Macauley's
speech, addressed to his Edinburgh constituency, on Tues-
day last :—" instead of attempting to controvert the an-
nounced motion of Sir J. Y. Buller, he endeavours to
apologize for the inefficiency of the Government, by de-
claring .that they are prevented from carrying their mea
sures by a hostile House of Peers, and by a powerful op-
position in the lower branch of the Legislature. ' Therefore,
gentlemen,' says Mr. Macaulay, ' I feel, and did strongly
feel before I was connected with the present Ministry, and
before I had an interest in the question, that it was most
unjust to reproach that Ministry for the manner in
which. legislation remained stationary, reproaching
them for what they could net' do: The Rh

RE-ANIMATION.

THE MEDICINAL EFFECTS of STEEL,
as a strengthener and restorative, have been known for
ages to excel those of all other articles of the Materia Mediaa,
and in this age of luxury and dissipation, when the indiscretions
of youth disappoint the expectations of maturity, it is not to be
wondered that a medicine of such efficacy as SEDDON'S
genuine AROMATIC LOZENGES of STEEL should have
attracted the attention of the first medical men in Europe.
When the most important functions of life arc suspended, and
those who are invalids by inheritance or imprudence are reduced
to the most deplotablo state of nervous debility, it is not in
despair that relief is to be found. It has been ascertained, be-
yond a doubt that these circumstances are occasioned by a ge-
neral or partial relaxation or weaknesses in either sex ; and it
is equally certain that SEDDON'S LOZENGES are the best,
if not the only remedy ever discovered for this species of de-
bility. When taken into the stomach they immediately diffuse
themselves like a vapour through every pore, producing effects
at once delightful, salutary, and permanent. When the spark
of life begins to grow dim, the circulation, languid, and the
faculties paralysed, these Loz!nges are found to; ivo tone to
the nerves, exhilirate the animal spirits, invigorate the body,
and re-animate the whole man. When aversion to exercise,
loss or depravity of appetite, and
.pallid countenance, indicate
approaching consumption, the.delicate female will be preserved
and restored to health and society by the benign influence of
this medicine.

TEA MARKET.

The dealers still appear disinclined to make purchases,
except for actual consumption, and the market is in a very
quiet state, with rather lower prices for common descrip-
tions. The cash price for Company's Congou fell to
2s. 3d. per lb. The importers still show much firmness,
and are very sanguine as to the future course of prices ;
they do not, however, anticipate a very speedy rise in the
article, but look for improving rates in the course of the
next three months, when the public will begin to turn their
attention to the stocks they have on hand, and which is
expected to be considerably reduced by the end of that
period.

TLLOW .
The sales continuAe extremely smaIIMARKET, and prices on the
decline. P. Y.C. 465. 3d. per cwt. The stock is very
large, and it is generally thought the prices have not yet
seen their lowest. The deliveries fall off very materially.

CONTINENTAL INUNDATIONS.

A letter from Lunel mentions that the town of Aigues-
Mortes, at the mouth of the Rhone, continues in a most me-
lancholy state, in consequence of the inundations. This place,
situated on a marshy flat, at some distance from the river bank,
is still surrounded by water, which comes close to its ancient
walls, the river continuing to flow through the breach in its
dyke, and having, it is supposed, made for itself a new channel
in that direction. The valuable salt-pans, which were close to
the town, are all under water, and it is supposed destroyed, to-
gether with an immense stock of salt. The damage done to
them is estimated at several' millions of francs. The
1 inhabi-
tnnts of Aigues-Mortes cannot communicate with any outer
town except in boats, Their fishing establishments o71:r

" It is one of the regulations of the house that the pupils
shall not have any roonev whatever at their own disposal ; con-
sequently they could not add even a mite to the subscriptions
for the sufferers from the inundations. It is the custom at the
establishment for them to have cakes, wine, and other indul-
gences on the feast of Saint Catherine ( Wednesday last) ; but
the young ladies in one of the upper classes, conceiving that the
expense of this treat might be saved, and the cost devoted to
charity, proposed the idea to their companions, and they all
agreed to it without a dissentient voice. The request was then
laid before the Superior of the establishment and accepted. A
sum of 500 f. was in consequence transmitted to the Archbishop
of Paris."

On Saturday, at the synagogue in Rue Notre Dame de Na-
zareth, the Grand Rabbi, Xll. Ennery, made a touchin,g appeal
to his congregation on behalf of the sufferers by the inunda-
tions, and announced that subscriptions would be received by
the treasurer.

MORALITY OF THE POOR.

It is a fact very highly creditable to the unemployed
poor of Leeds, that during the last season of unexam-
pled privation and distress, not a single instance has
arisen in which one individual among them has been at
all criminally imrlicated. This appears from a document
address( d to the Recorder, at the Leeds Borough Ses-
sione, on Tuesday.
We think that this fact speaks trumpet-tongued for
the morality of the poor. Who knows the extent of
the temptations by which they have been beset ? De-
prived of all comforts ; wanting in the ordinary shelter
and warmth necessary for human beings ; with but scanty
and insufficient clothir.g ; half-starved and famishing—

Homeless near a thousand hontes they stood,

And near a thousand tables pined, and wanted food;"
and set, thank God, they have been tioNEsT. Huma-
nity has much soundness and strength in it, after all ;
and it is a majestic thing in the constitution of man's
nature, that it does not break down utterly under all
this load of suffering.

We cannot doubt, however, that much injury has
been done to the morality of the poor by these six
months' sufferings. We are not of those who say that
poverty is in any case a thing to be desired, or to be
patiently put up with. All the fine arguments we have
ever heard in mitigation of the evils of poverty, have
only proved to us the more clearly that it is an unmiti-
gated evil ; nor, with all possible charity can we tolerate
the impudence of those who, through the loop-hole of
Providence, would palliate the vice and wickedness of
the bad laws and bad institutions which alone have pro-
duced it.
Long-continued poverty operates as a deadly blight
upon the best affections and feelings of human nature.
The heart is benumbed into selfishness by the tor-
pedo touch of extreme want. The constantly find-
ing the meal come short of the wants and desires of the
family—the members of that family regarding each
other- as rivals for that scanty meal—the feeling of
diss4tisfaetion and discomfort at the endurance of
_hunger, of cold and privations—what can this produce
fbe
to ?
the destruction of every
lang affection Especially on the
eutl bitterof irritation,genjcss t:tnui d
vonn,'* does the hand of poverty fall the most heavily.
11,,quiring the gentlest nurture and meeting only with
the roughest handling and the most scanty nourish-
ment, what can be its results other than entire igno-
rance, and most probably the growth of vicious and
criminal propensities ?
\Vhcever would do the destitute poor a service,
should earnestly set about extricating them from the
slough sf poverty in which they are now sunk.
Enable them to become self-dependent. This is the
true charity—the most efficient mode of "relief for
unemployed operatives." While we admire the vir-
tue and the honesty of the poor we must remember
that It may not always continue so, for " hunger breaks
through stone walls.," It is not enough to admire ;
men must. seriously act, and endeavour to set them free
from their most distressing privations and difficulties.—

ITALIAN OPERA HOUSE.

Torquato Tasso was repeated on Saturday evening with
increased applause, and before the most crowded audi-
ence we have seen this season. A new ballet was pro-
duced, entitled La 7'arentztla, founded upon a %%ell'
known French story, of which the principal features
have been preserved. Fanny Eisler was the heroine of
the piece, and she went through her part admirably.
The ballet has been got up at considerable expense,
and some new characters in this department have been
introduced,one represented by M. Barrez, a quack doctor,
who assisted not a little in giving effect to the piece.
The Queen was not present, and the Royal box was
unoccupied. The Queen Dowager, the Duchess of
Cambridge, and the Princess Augusta, however, were
present from the beginning to the end of the perform-
ance.

SIR JAMES ANDERSON'S STEAM C ARRIAGE.
—On Monday night the first of these carriages, building at
Newcomen-bridge Mills, was brought up from the works to be
painted at Nottingham-street. The rise from the mill, we are
informed, is 9 feet 6 inches in 68 feet ; and it being considered
imprudent to use steam power for such an ascent, a number of
workmen attempted to draw it up, but were unable. The steam
was then used, and the hill ascended, without the least difficulty,
to the top of the bridge. The carriage immediately started
down the Strand, and turned directly into the house prepared
for it, apparently, under full command. We understand that as
soon as painted and decorated it will be publicly exhibited. The
difficulty of steam carriages ascending steep hills seems no longer
to exist.—Ssundera's News Letter.
