CIAUTION.—We, the undersigned, hereby declare
our intention to institute Legal Proceedings against any
person or persons who, after the date of this notice, shall make, or
cause to be made, any infringement upon the Patent granted to us
under the title of mprovements in Garments, Pockets, &c.
The said invention consists—Firstly, of a mode or modes of making
or constructing Garments for various parts of the human body ; and,
secondly, of a mode or modes of making or constructing Pockets and
other such receptacles. The spirit of the Invention in the first part
may be roughly described as the adaptation of the linings of outer
Coats or Paletots, &c., -to a separate Garment and purpose; and, in
the second part, the Pockets or other such receptacles are protected
by the apertures to the same, expanding to admit the hand, and im-
mediately collapsing upon its withdrawal.
We also hereby give notice that we have assumed original and
descriptive titles as our trade mark, whereby the said first and
second parts of our invention may be always distinguished, that is
to say the first part is styled " The Nicoll" (being the abbreviation
of the full title of the Nicoll Chlamys Paletot), and the second part
is called "The Patent Pocket Protector;" and further it is our in-
tention to apply to the High Court of ancery for Injunctions to
restrain, &c., and to employ all other legal means to prevent unau-
thorised persona from applying either of these trade marks or terms
to other articles, or selling or offering for sale any garment, &c.,
being au infringement of the said Patent, and by such acts tending
to our injury and the deception of the public.

31 0 R -I S' O. PILL s.
Notice to all Persons taking Morison's Pills.
As Mr. Wakley, in his Lancet of last. Saturday, " has given the
word" to trump up cases, if possible, against Morison's Pills, Messrs.
Morison deem it their du% to caution the public against such infa-
mous proceedings, and to adSise'all those who take Morison's Pills
to keep them away from the decter'e hand,
.and,even under lock and
key. A rascal of a doCtor, In order to bring disrepute upon Morison's
Pills, actually placed some of his deadly poisons upon them in the
box, but he was happily detected in time. The poisons of doctors
are so deadly, that half a pin's-head ! will kill ; therefore, we say
again, let the public be on their guard. If any scoundrel of a doctor
should act upon Mr. Wakley's advice, and swear through thick and
thin against Morison's Pills, it will then become the duty of the
British College of Health to prosecute such a party for wilful and
corrupt perjury, and get him transported. This infamous proceed-
!fig on the part of Mr. Wakley and the Dispatch proceeds from the

British College of health having taken up the case of Mary Spry and
Mary Arm sore, and that of Mrs. Smyth, of Romsey. The Guinea
trade is in danger.

AGENTS for NICOLLS' PATENTS.—AII
those Firms throughout the various parts of the United Kisig-
dem and the ColOnies, who, up to the present time, have held a local
Agency for the Sale of the above Patentees' original and popular in-
vention called the REGISTERED PALETOT, &c., will also hold the
appointment for the sale of all the new Patents, subject to the usual
conditions.

Gentlemen, Non-Residents in the Metropolis, are constantly de-
siring that a mode of self-measurement should be published, as also
the addresses of the Country Agents. The first-named object can be
easily effected by moans of public Advertisement, as a descrip-
tion of the number of inches around chest and waist (taken
under the coat) will alone suffice; but the names of all
the Agents selling Nlcolls' Patented Garments are too numerous.
to be described through the same medium ' • however, the addresi of
the nearest shall be immediately forwarded upon application to
Messrs. Nicoll's Counting House Department, 120, Regent-street,
London.

The following Agents have a very large variety of the above goods
always ready for inspection, viz.:--

BRUSSELS, DEC. 4.—The Chamber of Representa-

budget for foreign affairs. By the propositions of
Government, the budget for 1849 would be 500,000 f.
66c. less than the budget for 1848, and if the reduc-
tions proposed ,by the central sections be adopted,
this reduction will be 625,8431. 64c. This question

MORISON'S PILLS,

MEMBERS of the CLERICAL, LEGAL, and
MEDICAL PROFESSIONS, it is presumed, will all
readily concede their patronage to the new patented invention called
THE NICOLL, inasmuch that, besides its soberness of colour (a
black, or almost invisible green, or dark blue), and unpretending
appearance, it is the only garment extant which presents to geittle-
men thus engaged a proper defence against the ills arising from a
variable climate (the origin of colds, &c.) To these it is said profes-
sional men are- more susceptible than others, arising from close
study, and their otherwise general sedentary habits ; now should the
morning atmosphere be mild or warm, and the latter part of the day
cold, the Nicoll is a garment that will provide for both contingencies.
Row thisis effected is more fully described, with the prices, in one of
the accompanying advertiseMents.

tisement ; but it can only be had in London, of the Patentees, Messrs.

RUSSIA.

The 4ifanheina Zeitung, in mentioning a report
which stated that a treaty had been concluded
between the Russians and SCHAMYL, gives an extract
from a letter that had been received from the Polish
border, to the following effect :
"In the German papers the news has gone abroad
that Russia had concluded a treaty with the Caucasian
people, by which their freedom and independence is ac•
knowledged. I can, on the contrary, assure you that
these reports require strong confirmation. The last
letters from Tithe, at least, say that the position of the
contending parties remained entirely unaltered. The
above report may have arisen from the fact of some of
the Daghestan tribes who had succumbed to the power
of Russia had made a proposal for a treaty to Prince
Woronzow, and also from the fact that a body of troops,
some 5,000 strong, formerly stationed in the Caucasus,
had received orders to march to Poland."
The Russian papers now give an official report,
which throws some light upon the last expedition to
the Caucasus. From widely-disseminated reports
we also learn that SCHAMYL, on the 10th of Septem-
ber, with an imposing force, had repaired, during the
feast of Achti, to the Kamurschen border, where he
had attacked General Rolm, who had driven bins
back ; but being subsequently attacked himself by a
heavy body of troops, a severe action took place. The
Russians give their loss in this action at 15 killed and
152 wounded, and estimate the loss of the enemy at
300 in killed alone.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

GRANTHAM.—The survey of the Great Northern
Railway is rapidly proceeding in this neighbourhood.
To those who know the locality it may be interesting to
state that the line crosses Spittlegate-hill at the termina-
tion of the white posts and rails, takes down the newly-
erected fever hospital at the corner of the union-house
premises, through Peacecliffe-hill, and skirting Jericho
Wood, proceeds in the parish of Hougham towards
Newark. It is a remarkable circumstance that the sur-
veyor:was enabled to pass his line through the Peace-
cliffe plantation without cutting down a tree. It is ex-
pected the navvies will be at work in this neighbourhood
within four months.—Lincoln Mercury.
WEST FLANDERS RAILWAY.—Gross traffic for the
month of October, 1848, 1,0651. Bs. 4d. This amount
includes the sum received by Government for the com-
pany's account.
EASTERN COUNTIES AND THE SHIPWRECKED GER-
MAN EMIGRANTS.—The directors of the Eastern Coun-
ties brought to London, gratis, 100 of the German emi-
grants who were shipwrecked off the coast at Harwich,
in the Burgundy. Had it not been for the facility
afforded by the railway company, they must have begged
their way to London. The Consul-General of Saxony
and the Elanse Towns has forwarded an acknowledgment
to the directors, expressive of the liberality thus exhi-
bited, as an act of sympathy and fellowship which will be
felt throughoutreciated by their countrymen in Germany
and the world.
SOUTH DEVON RAILWAY.—The traffic for the week
ending the 24th November was: For passengers, 1,361/.
ls. Id.; Great Western Railway, 4741. 45.; South
Devon Railway (including 151/. 15s. 4d. for goods),
1,039/. 2s. sd. On the Ist inst., two trains up and two down, from Exeter to Newton, were discontinued, and
only one down train working between those towns now
runs.

THE WHAAFDALE VIADUCT ON THE LEEDS AND
THIRSII.—The top or last stone of this stupendous piece
of masonry was safely deposib.,l hv the erbnteqer,rs
Thursday. The viaduct consists of 21 arches, each of
60 feet span.

SWEDEN.

The news of the proclamation of the French Re-
public created great excitement in Stockholm ;
the students assembled, and had a grand torchlight
procession, crying "Vive la Liberte," " Vive la Re-
publique Francaise," Vive la Suede," " Vive
Charles," " A bas les Jesuites." The police very
wisely abstained from all interference, and the stu-
dents, after parading the city, quietly dispersed.

LYCEUM THEATRE.

The Happy Family, which was produced at this theatre
last evening, albeit it is supported by the whole strength
of the company, did not progress very happily, nor does
it hold out any great promise of a lengthened existence.
The idea of the piece (for plot there is none) may be told
in a few words. A retired auctioneer and amateur
sportsman, bight Christopher Catlin (Mr. Charles Ma-
thews), a retired hosier and amateur fisherman,
answerirg to the name of Lionel Linnet, and
acted by Mr. Buckstone, and a gormandizing
old fellow, one Daniel Doggins, acted by Mr.
Granby, all married men, agree that themselves
and their wives shall have a common establishment at
Harmony Hall, and a bachelor gentleman and amateur
huntsman, one Benjamin Buzzard, acted by Harley, is
admitted as a member of the society. The ladies quarrel
from the very first, and their example is soon followed by
the gentlemen' and these:qmirrellings, which might have
furnished feed for laughter for one short act, are
continued through two long acts, which play for two
mortal hours. At the conclusion, although the applause
predominated, there was some hissing distinctly audible,
and the success of the piece may be con-
sidered as anything but o.?.rtain. For this un-
toward result the author has only himself
to blame. The piece was east with the whole strength
-of the company. Madame Yestris, Mrs. Stirling, Mrs.
Fitzwilliam, Mrs. C. Jones, Charles Mathews, Harley,
Buckstone, and Frank Matthews, were all in it, and all
exerted themselves to the utmost. The scenery, too,
by Beverly, was superb. Nothing could exceed the
beauty of the exterior of Harmony Hall; it was a gem
of art. The very fact that the success of a piece so
supported, and so put upon the stage, could have been
for a moment doubtful, speaks volumes. The house was
exceedingly well attended.

Sir W. CLAY presented a petition from the Clerks
of the union workhouses in London, praying for

Mr. Alderman SIDNEY postponed for a fortnight

the appointment of a Select Committee to

a petition presented to the House on the 9th inst.,

and to report their opinion thereon.
ELECTION RECOGNIZANCES BILL.

Mr. J. S. WORTLEY stated that he understood,
in consequence of what had taken place, it was
not the intention of his lion. and Learned Friend the
Member for Midhurst to move the second reading of
the Election Recoguizances Bill on Monday next.
After what he had heard, he begged to give notice
that if his Honourable Friend did not move
the second reading on Monday he should, having a
strong opinion that unless some legislation took place
the greatest inconvenience would be experienced.
Sir B. HALL wished to know whether it was
the intention of the Honourable Member to '
move at the same time the postponement of the
consideration of petitions that had been presented
from different places. He understood that the Com-
mittee of Selection had appointed Monday to select
Members to serve on the Committee to which these
petitions referred.
Mr. J. STUART WORTLEY said that that was
a question for the Committee of Selection.
Sir GEORGE CLERK said that the Committee
of Selection would proceed with the nomination of
Members on Monday.

Mr. MACKENZIE proposed the following mo-
tion :—" That Mr. Speaker do issue his warrant to
the Clerk of the Crown to make out a new writ for
the electing of a burgess to serve in this present Par-
liament for the borough of llarwich, in the room of

mined to be void."

wisely abstained from all interference, and the stu-

THE SUN,

ROMANCE OF REAL LIFE.

One of those extraordinary events which now and
then occur, as if to exemplify the adage of truth being
stranger than fiction, has this week taken place at
Gravesend, the facts, as communicated to us by a pri-
vate correspondent being as follows :—On Monday an
old " man-of-war's man," the boatswain of a yacht
belonging to a gentleman who was about to sail for
the Mediterranean, having obtained a brief leave of
absence, went up to London in one of the steamers
which ply and fro, for the purpose of transactingsome
private business. In the boat he met with a young
man, a servant to one of the officers at Tilbury Fort,
whom he had never seen before, but he did not then
take much notice of his fellow-passenger. Upon re-
turning the next day, however, he found the
same man on board, and " Jack" having scraped
acquaintance, they entered into conversation.
The officer's servant soon became exceedingly
communicative, observing, amongst other matters,
that he was to start for China in ten days, and that 'he
had been to town to see a lawyer respecting some
leases of property to which he believed he was heir;
but, upon referring to the will, it had been discovered
that he was only to inherit the property in the event
of an uncle, supposed to be drowned some years
since, not coming forward to claim it. The name of
a Lord Glanville being mentioned, the sailor observed,
" Why, messmate, I have heard and know that name
well " Mutual explanations took place, when it turned
out that the boatswain was the very missing uncle,
and will now inherit the property, worth in all about
8,0001. Notwithstanding this unexpected acquisition
to his fortune, the son of Neptune, tar-like,' seems
inclined to stick to the ship of which he is now the
boatswain, observing that "he'd just as soon sail
round the world with his new master."—Bristol
Mirror.

" Ah, doctor, how is my wife to- day ?" The
doctor shook his head, and said. " You must now pre-
pare for the worst." " What!" said the husband, "is
she likely to get over it?"
A GOOD REASON.—" Bill,", said Bob, " why is
that tree called a weeping willow ?"—" 'Cause one of the
sneaking dratted things grew near our school-house, and
supplied the master with the sticks that did all the buys'
licking."

POLICE IN TELLIGENCE.
GUILDHALL.

John Dean was committed for stealing a pocket-
book containing 11. Bs, and a passport, from the
pocket of a poor German cap-maker, named Maks
llenoch. He determined to have a good view of Sale's
execution, and, with another German, went to the Old
Bailey atone in the morning. After spending some time
in a coffee-shop, he went to the barrier, and shortly after
detected the prisoner in picking his pocket. The
book was passed away to confederates, the German
only caring to keep fast hold of the thief. This oc-
curred at lire in the morning, and, being obliged to
go to the station to give charge, he lost the front
position he had coveted.

LONDON, TUESDAY. JANUARY 11, 1848

Our Parisian contemporaries must have derived
considerable amusement from the excitement which
has recently manifested itself in England at the mere
supposition of a French invasion. They must have
watched with some curiosity the progre,s of a dis-
cussion which has agitated the minds, not only of
journalists and pamphleters, but which has induced
some of th© most distinguished members of our no-
bility to rush into print, and has elicited even the
decided opinion of his Grace the Duke of WELLING-
TON. Virtually, if not physically, there have been
quite as startling manifestations of panic at the prox-
imity of our bellicose neighbours as there were when
the republican forces were preparing to descend
n in 1798, under the command
perfidious Albion
upon Pe
of the General-in-Chief BONAPARTE, or as there
were in 1805, when
the Imperial army gathered on

instead of yard measures, as
they di

the "good
Lord JOHN has
not appeared among the yeomanry of Sussex in a
scarlet jacket and leather breeches, as did A Air . PITT,
when Great Britain was threatened by a flotilla
crowded with veteran soldiers. War subsidies
have not been voted in Parliament. The forty-eight
furnace fires of Portsmouth have not been fanned into
a fiercer flame than usual. There has been no in
crease of activity in the gun factories of Birmingham,
or in the shot towers near Waterloo-bridge. Never-
theless the agitation has been visible and remarkable.
It bas extended from private individuals to our here-
ditary legislators, from nnwarlike quidnuncs to the
most celebrated warrior of our generation. 'Mile
vve cennot hut c nceive that thes fear, have arisen
froan a Ilistorted view of circumstances, and that
they have been magnified into a marvellous
exaggeration, we regard them with profound respect,
because they have manifestly arisen trom the dictates
of prudence rather than from those of pusillanimity,
