ItOWLANDS' AIACASSAR OIL.
It may with truth be averred, that ROWLANDS' 3IAC NS -
SAII OIL has enjoyed an extent of patronage and public favour dur-
ing the last half century which Is totally unexampled ih the annals
of felicitous discovery. The extraordinary efficacy, and happy amal-
gamation of its purely exotic materials, have rendered it justly re-
nowned throughout the world for its remarkable virtues in nourish-
ing, preserving, and beautifying the Duman Heir. It insinuates
its balsamic properties into the pores of the head, nouri,hes the Hair
in its embryo state, cleanses it from scurf and dandriff, accelerates
its growth, sustains it in maturity, and continues its possession of
healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy to the latest
period of human life. In the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and
Mustachols, it is also unfailing in its stimulative operations. For Chil-
dren it is especially recommended, as forming tho basis of a Beau-
tiffil Head of Hair, and rendering the use of the fine condo unne-
cessary.

Its invaluable properties have obtained the especial Patronage of
her Majesty the Queen, the Court, and the whole of the Royal Family
of Great Britain, aed of every Court of the civilised world ; and the
high esteem in which it is universally held, together with numerous
Testimonials constantly received of its efficacy, afford the best and
surest proofs of Its merits.

enhanced to our mind by the recent emancipation of
► the Sicilian, and the newly-conquered independence
of their island—torn by a revolution from the grasp of
the King of Naples. "Crimes and Remarkable
Trials in Scotland" is an enthralling contribution,
recounting the surprising adventures and vicissitudes
of Peter Williamson—the narrative being prefaced
by an animadversion upon the system of laws which
admits of the practice of kidnapping. "The Repealer's
Wish Granted" is a solemn warning to the mock
patriots of Erin—a warning at first as obscure as a
prophecy, and at last as awful as the utterance of a
doom. But that a note declares to the contrary, we
should certainly have attributed the inspiration of the
chapter to the admirable articles recently published
in our contemporary the Times. One view of the
scene of desolation has, however, been overlooked by
the writer in Blackwood, namely, the sending
away the many thousand Irish from England—those
Irish who find employment, wages, and food in the
land of the Saxon. Could not the contributor pen
a brief episode to his vision of the future ? In the
present chapter the repetition of the sentence---" The
sail bellies bigly to the wind. From Erin
the Green the Saxons are gone. There rose from
earth to sky—what ?"—has a sound so solemn
that it becomes at last almost horrible. " Alan is a
Featherless Biped" reads pleasantly—it gives one the
reminiscence of a passage or two in "Cal?l3 Stukely
The writer rattles off his narrative with a devi

me-care precipitation, such as he would doubt-
less display on the back of a hunter. With
a melancholy and even despairing lamentation,
over " The Revolutions in Europe"—•the necessity of
which lamentation is bolstered up by quotations from
the eccentric speeches recently delivered in the House
of Peers by Lord Brougham—Blackwood is brought
to a conclusion for May. A better number has not
for a very considerable time appeared.

POLAND.

The Gazeta Polska gives the following intelligence
from Warsaw :
" A conspiracy among the military having been dis-
covered here, the officers of the Warsaw garrison, who
wero arrested, have been already tried by court-martial,
and four of them were shot in the citadel. Throughout
the kingdom of Poland the peasants are said to have
been authorised to deliver up their lords of the manor to
the gendarmes if there is the slightest intimation of un
intended rise. The reputt of a counter revolution in
Gallicia, induced by a person in official capacity, similar
to that of 1846. has again been mooted. It is not im•
probable that the numerous incendiary fires now taking
place in sev.ral of the circles of Gallicia may be connected
with this."

The Breslauer Zeitung has a letter from Krotos-
chin of the 23d, stating that the Prussian troops have
near Adelnau been violently attacked by a mob of
scythemen. General Count DOHNA, with one hundred
Riflemen and ten Cuirassiers, marched on the 22d to-
wards Adelnau, where an onset was made upon him
by an armed body of Polish rioters, who were, after
five hours' fighting, driven back upon the town and
reduced to sue for an armistice. Count DOHNA al-
lowed them half an hour. At the end of this time
the tocsin was sounded in the,town, and 4,000 scythe-
men appeared, who renewed the attack, in which one
hundred and six of them were killed, and the Count
being reinforced by a company of intantry and a file
of Ilussars from Ostrowo, succeeded in taking posses-
sion of the town. The Prussian troops had only one
man killed and five wounded. A Silesian paper, of
the 22d, affirms that 10,000 Russian troops—foot,
horse, and artillery—have proceeded to the Prussian
frontier close to Alyslowitz.

The Austrian Commissioner at Cracow has re-
ceived orders from his Government to guard the Aus-
trian frontiers against Prussia with a military cordon
to prevent " great masses of certain Polish emigrants
overrunning the territory of Cracow; only such
Polish emigrants as can prove that they are Austria►►
subjects will in future be allowed to enter the Impe-
rial dominions."

HA MBURGH.

MAY 2.—The intelligence from the seat of war is in-
definite. According to a letter from our correspondent
at Iladersleben, May 1, the first divison of Prussians
marched from thence to Jutland on the previuus
evening.

The distance to Kolding might be traversed in four
hours, but it is thought that they will halt for the
night at Christiansfeld.

The Emperor ALEXANDER'S regiment of Guards
and the Hussars were, expected at Hadersieben yes-
terday.

This moment (half-past four o'clock, P.m.), we have
received the Copenhagen journals of May 1 ; they
were brought by the Nordstjen steamer Ka Labec.
They contain a short address from the King of DEN-
MARX to the inhabitants of Copenhagen, thanking them
for the marks of devotion and attachment which they
have manifested towards him since his return home,
assures them of his love, and promises that:he will
go hand in hand with them, and share their lot in
weal or woe.

The Berlinger Zeitung observes that no mail has
arrived from abroad, nor is there any intelligence of
importance from the provinces. The report of General
HEDEMANN, of the 28th, speaks merely of the assembling
of the troops at Alsen. A report has been received
from General WEDELL, according to which the right
wing of the army (principally cavalry) is slowly
proceeding northwards. Both General WRANGEL
and General HEDEMANN have sent Parliamentaries to
the repulsive enemies' quarters, neither of them, how-
ever, have a diplomatic mission, but are charged
with making inquiries about the wounded and the
prisoners.

The Fadrelandee s reports from Elsinore of the 29th
state that the Commandant of Kronborg and the
superintendent of the guard•ship, had not up to that
day received any orders to bring in Hanoverian,
Mecklenburg, or Hanseatic ships. The official report
gives the number of Schleswig Holsteiners confined
as prisoners in Copenhagen at 773. About 150 men
of the Hamburgh contingent left this morning for
Cuxhaven for the protection of the coast. The
steamer Gutenburg passed Cuxhaven yesterday
morning, accompanied by a small cutter, bringing in
the Danish brig Thorwaisden as a prize.

BOHEMIA.

In the sitting of the National Committee of the
24th ult., at Prague, it was unanimously resolved
amidst enthusiastic applause, that Bohemia should
refuse its adhesion to the German Parliament. Bo-
hemia eagerly looks forward to her independence.
The state of the country is very unsettled. It is
thought that Bohemia as well as Gallicia, will pro-
test against many points of the new Austrian consti-
tution.

RENDSVURG, MAY 2.---The Provisional Govern
ment has issued the following proclamation :

consequence of the war which now subsists between
the Duchies of Schleswig-Holstein and the kingdom
of Denmark, all and every communication, whatever*
between the persons belonging to these states and the
enemy, are hereby positively interdicted. Those per-
sons especially who reside on the coasts are stringently
prohibited from having any communication or inter-
course with the enemy's ships of war. Any person
who transgresses this command shall be instantly
arrested and transported to the fortress of Rendsburg,
and there be placed at the bar of justice, when he will
receive condign punishment according to the circum-
stances of the case.

of the said Duchies of Schleswig-Holstein are to

AMERICAN POSTAGE.

Mr. HUME gave notice of his intention, on Tuesday
next, to move for copies of the correspondence between
this country and the United States, with respect to the
postage arrangements.
GUIANA AND TRINIDAD.
On the motion of Mr. HUME the following address
was agreed to:—Address for copies or extracts of dis-
patches from Lord Stanley, Mr. Secretary Gladstone,
and Earl Grey, in 1844, and in any subs, quent years,
authorising the expenditure of 166,0001. for Coolies and
other expenses for Guiana and Trinidad; and also, an
estimate of the further expenditure sanctioned by the
Colonial-office, for similar services, as stated in Mr.
Elliott's letter of the sth day of April, 1848, to C. E.
Trevelyan, Esq.
Mr. HIJME also moved for a tabular abstract of the
totals in each year of the increase and diminution which
has taken place in the number of appointments, and in the
amount of salaries, in all public offices and departments,
since the passing of the Act 4 and 5, William IV. c. 24,
so as to show the difference in each of these years of
increase and of diminution of persons and of salaries,
agreeably to the Act.—Agreed to.
FREE TRADE IN INDIA.

Mr. RICARDO seeing the Right Honourable Baronet
the Secretary for the Board of Control in his place,
wished to ask him a question with reference to an Act of
the Governor-General of India. The House was aware
that hitherto all goods introduced in the ports of
India in British bottoms stood upon more favourable
footing than the commodities brought into India by
foreign ships. He understood that the Governor-
General of India had passed an Act placing both
British and foreign ships upon the same footing, and he
wished to know from the Right Honourable Baronet
whether this information was correct, and jif so whether
he had any objection to lay the Act upon the table of the
House.
Sir J. C. lIOBITOUcE said, in answer to the ques-
tion of the Hon. Gentleman, he had to state that the in
formation the Hon. Gentleman had received was strictly
correct. The act was passed in accordance with the
instructions sent out from the Home Government, and
he could have no objection to lay it upon the table of the
House. He would take that opportunity of stating that
the Governor General had done away with the coast
duties, and the reason for his doing so was this:—
the duties by land had previously been abolished,
and it was therefore thought expedient not to continue
the Act of 1839, which imposed duties upon foreign
coasting vessels in favour of British bottoms. The Go-
vernor-Genernl had now abolished all differential duties,
and he would take care that the Act by which they
were abolished should be laid upon the table of the
House.
Lord G. BENTINCK said the House would see that
under the Act all goods from Singapore would come into
India free of duty. The House was, no doubt, aware that
Singapore was a 'free port, and that the Act had been

FRANKFO4T-ON-THE-MAINE.

The Teutonic National Assembly, or German Par-
liament, commenced its sittings on the Ist May, in
the Town-hall of Frankfort. The Parliament opened
with 17 members. Amongst the most distinguished
of these were Herr Blum, Vice-President of the
Committee of Fifty; Herr Herginhume, Minister
of Hesse Darmstadt; Herr Eisenmann, one of those
formerly condemned for his political opinions ;
Herr Hicksher, a celebrated advocate in Hamburgh ;
and the Herren Hippermsn and Schwarzenberg'
members of the opposition in Hesse Cassel. The
senior member present, Herr Scholt, acted as
Presidant or Speaker of the day, and the Secretary
for the day was Herr Jucho, member for Frankfort.
Nothing will be done until a sufficiently large return
of members had been made, and assembled in Frank-
fort, to justify those thus congregated together in
considering that the national will was represented.
In the meantime the Committee of Fifty will con-
tinue to exercise its functions in superintending al
affairs affecting the interests of the Germanic people.
All the members in Frankfort, as well as the
Committee of Fifty, attended the funeral of General
GAGEIeN, which took place on the Ist inst., as chief
mo urn ers.

The funeral of ,General GAG ERN was not merely a
solemn display of personal respect for the deceased,
but it was, in truth, a political incident, in which
were exhibited the representatives of different Sove-
reign's and States; and the officers of various armies
combined with the citizen soldiers of a free city, in
dvnwnstrating that all were united in opposition to
the Communists, Anarchists, and violent Republicans
of Germany.

WHEREAS, by a Decree of the High Court of
Chancery, made in two causes of " Collyer v. Ashburner,"
and " Collyer v. Ashburner," it was referred to Sir GIFFIN WILSON,
late one of the Masters of the Court, to inquire who are the persons
designated in the Will of Robert Pounds, late of 15, High-
street, Camden-town, in the county of Middlesex, Esquire, who died
on the 24th April, 1646, as James Pounds, Robert Walker Pounds,
and Jahn Pounds, sons of James Pounds formerly of Philadelphia, in
North America, and whether they are respectively living or dead,
and if living, where they respectively reside, and if dead, who are
their legal personal representatives : therefore, the persons so de Sig-
nate& if living, or if dead, their legal personal representatives are, on
or before the 2d day of Jane next, to come in before RICHARD TOSIN
KINDEIRSLEY, Esquire, the Master to whom these causes are trans-
ferred, at his chambers ix Southampton-buildings, in the County of
Middlesex, and establish their claims to be the persons above de-
scribed, as the sons of the said James Pounds, or they will peremp-
torily be excluded the belied: of the said Decree.

The said James Pounds, the father, resided at 6, Parker-street,
Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, North America, and died
on the 31st May, :842, leaving his sons, the said James Robert
Pounds, a blacksmith, in the will called James Pounds, the said Itto•
bert Walker Pounds, and John Pounds, a printer, surviving him ;
James Robert, Pounds and John Pounds are, it is believed, residing in
Philadelphia ; Robert Walker Pounds, in the year 1842, was serving
an apprenticeship to a tin-plate worker in Philadelphia, and left that
place in the early part of the year 1844, in the mouth of January,
1845 he was in the employment of Mr. blaise Rosetti, of 29, Drury-
lane, Loudon, coachmaker, and was afterwards employed in the ca-
pacity of a porter at a store or warehouse, in Liverpool, where he
was living in the month of June, 1845; in the month of August in
the same year he went on board the Daniel Webster, supposed to
have been bound for Philadelphia, and nothing has since been heard
of him.

BOROUGH ELECTIONS

Sir J.HAN:IIEI3, said it was important that this
Bill should be disposed of with as little delay as pos-
sible, and he would, with the permission of the House,
re-appoint the second reading, which was on the list
yesterday, for Tuesday next. Ultimately Sir J.
Hanmer postponed his motion until Wednesday next.

DENMARK.

COPENHAGEN, APRIL 29.—The King arrived here
;his afternoon in perfect health.

We have not yet received an exact official state-
ment respecting the numbers of our dead and
wounded. Above fifty officers are missing since the
commencement of the campaign, more than forty of
whom are classed among the dead and wounded.
The army corps (infantry and artillery, for we have
no accounts from the cavalry which is gone north-
wards) are in admirable condition, the battalions from
600 to 700 men strong, and the artillery complete.
The Danish journals agree in etion,,ting the
Danish army at Schleswig Holstein at 10,000 or ,

MAT 2.—The intelligence from the seat of war is in-
definite. According to a letter from our correspondent
at Hadersleben, ➢lay 1, the first divison of Prussians
marched from thence to Jutland on the previous

evening.
The distance to Kolding might be traversed in four
hours, but it is thought that they will halt for the
night at Christiansfeld.
The Emperor ALEXANDER'S regiment of Guards
and the Hussars were expected at Hadersleben yes-
terday.

This moment (half-past four o'clock, P.m.), we have
received the Copenhagen journals of May 1 ; they
were brought by the Nordstjen steamer Ka Labcc.
They contain a short address from the King of DEN•
ms nx to the inhabitants of Copenhagen, thanking th, in
for the marks of devotion and attachment which they
have manifested towards him since his return home,
assures them of his love, and promises that he will
go hand in hand with them, and share their lot in
weal or woe.

The Berlinger Zeitung observes that no mail has
arrived from abroad, nor is there any intelligence of
importance from the provinces. The report of General
HEDEMANN, of the 28th, speaks merely of the assembling
of the troops at Alsen. A report has been received
from General W EDELL, according to which the right
wing of the army (principally cavalry) is slowly
proceeding northwards. Both General WRANGEL
and General HEDEMANN have sent Parliamentaries to
the repulsive enemies' quarters, neither of them, how-
ever, have a diplomatic mission, but are charged
with making inquiries about the wounded and the
prisoners.
The Fadrelandet's reports from Elsinore of the 29th
state that the Commandant of Kronborg and the
superintendent of the guard• ship, had not up to that
day received any orders to bring in Hanoverian,
Mecklenburg, or Hanseatic ships. The official report
gives the number of Schleswig Holsteiners confine
as prisoners in Copenhagen at 773. About 150 men
of the Hamburgh contingent left this morning for
Cuxhaven for the protection of the coast. The
steamer Gutenburg passed Cuxhaven yesterday
morning, accompanied by a small cutter, bringing in
the Danish brig Thorwalsden as a prize.

In the sitting of the National Committee of the

amidst enthusiastic applause, that Bohemia should
refuse its adhesion to the German Parliament. Bo-
hemia eagerly looks forward to her independence.
The state of the country is very unsettled. It is
thought that Bohemia as well as Gallicia, will pro-
test against many points of the new Austrian con,ti-
tution.

LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 6, 1848.

Prior to the very satisfactory announcement made
by Lord PALMERSTON last evening in the House of
Commons, that the proffered mediation of Great Bri-
tain had been mutually accepted by the Germanic
Confederation and the Government of Denmark,
explanations in reference to the recent misunder-
standings at Madrid were successively wrested from
the First Lord of the Treasury and the Principal
Secretary for Foreign Affairs by the useful pertina-
city of Mr. URQUHART. Of the circumstances of
the correspondence which those misunderstand-
ings had elicited we have already spoken ;
and, in recounting the origin and result:;
of that correspondence, we endeavoured, in
language as forcible as we could command, to
pronounce not only our acquittal of the Right Hon.
Gentleman, the British Ambassador at the Court Of
Madrid, from the insolent aspersions showered upon
him by the Duc DE SOTOMATOR, but to eulogise the
indeaendence and propriety with which he had con-
ducted himself in his official capacity tYroughout the
whole of this remarkable transaction. As we had
Jr(Ews conjectured from the tir.t appearance of the letters
t trinsinitted from the British embassy at Madrid to

:an. _
the foreign office in the same capital, and back again
from the Foreign-office to the British embassy
the Government of England cannot find it in
lt3 heart to mention the name of Sir H. LYTTON

alitrobation ; and we doubt not that were Lord
PALMERSTON Summoned by sums derlorabls catas-

private emolument of a class ; and as the question
would still remain unsettled, there would be a renewal
of those disputes, which are peculizaly unpleasant
when personal interests are involved in the discussion.
It would also be less productive to the
revenue, inasmuch as the great increase
of consumption, which may reasonably be expected
to more than compensate for the decrease in the
duties, could not then be calculated on. For every
reason, then, the Government proposition is infinitely
more beneficial in whatever point of view it may be
regarded, and there can be little doubt that the
amendment will be negatived by a large majority;
indeed, the opponents of the Government resolutions
will not again be able to collect the disjecta mcmbra
which constituted the minority of 24.5 on the first
division, who, as we have already pointed out, were
actuated by a variety of conflicting motives for the
vetes they recorded upon that occasion.
