SONG TO OLD CHRISTMAS.
A. Hail, hail, merry Sire Thy seasons inspire
The hearts of the young and the old;
My breast stems to burn when 1 see thy return,
Though the month of December is cold.
Come, come, and make glad the hearts that are Sad.
And tell us of homely delights ;
Come and cheer ev'ry place with thy bonny red face,
And thoroughly set us to rights.
Thy approach will we meet with a jolly good treat,
And many " tough yarns" will be spun,
With ale, wine, and grog, and a bright burning log,
Ant with dresses from MOSES and SON.
I always remember, in cheerful December,
E. MOSES and SON'S noted Mart ;
When I purchase attire, to hail the glad Siro,
Whose holidays need something smart.
Ev'ry one should be deck'd, if they've any respect
Fer old Father Christmas's cheer;
Then hasten and start for MOSES'S Mart, -
Where the best Winter dresses appear.
As the season is cold, warm garments are sold,
Unequall'd in Winter attire ;
Whose price is so low, that all folks may show
Their respect to the hearty old Sire.

BRUSH and CHIMNEY-SWEEPING APPARATUS obviates all
the annoyance and inconvenience consequent upon the present dis-
gusting plan By it a flue is completely cleansed without one
particle of soot entering the apartment. A short time ago
an experiment was made with this apparatus at the House of

paper were placed upon the chimney-piece, and in various other
parts of the room, and after the completion of the sweeping not one
particle of soot was discernible upon any of the sheets of paper.

In consequence of the numerous shares already subscribed for, the

needful on the part of these who may desire to become interested in
this establishment. The solidity of the principles on which it is
founded having been universally admitted, whether with reference
to the complete protectiku of the shareholders, the sound secu-
rity offered to the custo lir the advantage arising to them by
the interest oil deposittOilielf neither the Bank of England nor
TM private banks allow, with' the addition of a sdctrftty perfectly
unexceptionable, even in the case of trustees, or official parties,
the Directors feel confident that the only ingredient necessary
to secure it the entire approbation of the public will be supplied by a
detailed statement, now prepared, of the various sources of profit from
which its large contemplated returns will be derived. These are such
as cannot fail to confirm the opinion of those who have already sub-
scribed for upwards of 4,500 shares, and to satisfy any doubts that
may have been suggested as to the very profitable nature of the pro-
posed investment. _ _ .

DIAMOND CARCEL LAMP, NEW LIGHT.
The Diamond Carcel Lamp is the best Light in the world.
The Carcel Lamp is used in all the Palaces in Europe ; it burns oil,
but is free from all imperfections of ordinary oil lamps ; is so simple
it cannot be mismanaged; burns from Sunset till Morning without
attention. No cleaning required for years. To sell the ordinary
candle lamps is now impossible; the public have long enough been
pestered with such rubbish ; candle lamps give half the light, and
cost three times as much in burning, as the Diamond Carcel Lamp.
This is no fiction. The Diamon 1 Carcel Lamp is the only Light—
perfection in Light—the public will have none other. Designs to
suit every taste.
_ .

To be had only, and seen burning daily, at the Patentee's immense
Lamp Depot, 447, West Strand, Ten Doors from Lowther Arcade.

CUNDY'S PATENT OPEN FIRE
VENTILATING STOVE.
(TESTIMONIAL AFTER ONE WINTER'S TRIAL.)
Letter from the Rev. Matthew O'Brien (Professor of Natural Philo-
sophy and Astronomy). M.A., F.R.S., &c., King's College.
Upper Norwood, June 22.
I beg to eertify that one of Mr. Candy's Patent Stoves was put
up in my lecture room at King's College, last year, in place of a com-
mon stove (of Arnott's construction, I believe). I have no hesita-
tion in saying, from actual experience, that Mr. Cundy's Stove is far
superior both in producing warmth over the whole room, and in pro-
moting ventilation, without disagreeable currents of air or close smell.
MATTHEW O'BRIEN.
The Stoves to be had of Messrs. Dowson, 69, Welbeck-street, Ca-
vendish-square, where they may be seen in operation.

MALT-TAX REPEAL
ASSOCIATION.
A meeting of the central committee of this association,
which has for its object the total repeal of the malt-tax,
took place on Wednesday at the York Hotel, Bridge-
street, 131 a skfriars.
Mr. W. B. LAMB, on taking the chair, announced that
various communications had been received from York-
shire, Hampshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Oxfordshire,
Nottinghamshire, and other counties, containing most
gratifying accounts of the progress of the principles of
the association ; and that Mr. Cheetham, of Oakham,
would state to the meeting another fact, which he was
sure would be equally gratifying, as showing that the
Central Protection Society, which they feared would
be opposed to them, were now most likely to go hand
in hand with them in their struggle for a total re-
peal of the malt-tax.—(Loud cheers.) And so they
ought; for no one could doubt that such a measure
was intimately connected with protection to agricul-
ture.—(Hear.)
Mr. CHEETHAN said, that as chairman of the Oakham
Protection Society, he attended a meeting of the Central
Society yesterday, in Bond-street, at which the question
of a repeal of the malt-tax was fully discussed—the dis-
cussion having arisen out of communications from Wor-
cestershire and East Kent, demanding to know whether
it was a question which local societies might entertain—
and from all that occurred, he felt convinced that the
members of the society generally were favourable to it.
—(Cheers.) The Duke of Richmond, who presided,
and others, thought, however, that they ought not to
commit the society to a formal declaration upon the
subject until they ascertained the sentiments of the
local societies ; and resolutions were accordingly
adopted, calling upon those societies to declare whether
they were for or against a total repeal of the malt-tax,
and to communicate the same to the Central Society on
or before Tuesday, the 12th of January, when a meet-
ing of that body would be held to consider the point.
He rejoiced that it was so, because from his observation
of yesterday's meeting, he was satisfied that the vast
majority of the local societies would embrace the oppor-
tunity to be thus afforded them of using their most
strenuous exertions to obtain a repeal of the malt duty.
As to the county of Rutland, he had no doubt whatever
-that-lie would have to attend in Bond-street on January
12, and declare the general feeling of the county
to be in favour of that measure. He would not
trouble the meeting with the reasons for repealing
the malt-tax. They were too well known. All they
had to consider, therefore, was the means to be used
for effecting their object. He might just remark,
however, that he had learned from a calico-printer
in Manchester, to whom he had written on the
subject, that the increase of consumption in the article 1
of printed calico since the repeal of the duty of 3d. the
square yard, over and above what might be caused by
the increase of population, was absolutely enormous.
This was an important fact, because there was some
analogy between the manufacture of printed cotton and
that of malt. The consumption of glass had also grealy
increased since the duty had been removed. The manu-
facture of malt was just as essential as any other, and
ought to be equally free.—(Hear, hear.) They should
not, therefore, be satisfied with anything less than total
repeal; for if the duty was reduced even to 6d., it
would still carry with it all those vexatious and oppres-
sive restrictions which rendered the present duty so
objectionable.—(Hear.)
In compliance with a request from the chair, several
gentlemen who had been deputed to visit particular dis.
tricts, reported the result of their mission, which they
stated to have been in all cases most favourable to the
repeal of the malt-tax—the only opposition they had
met with being from either Chartists or teetotallers,
while from the tenant-farmers, labourers, and towns-
people, they received a most hearty and encouraging sup-
port. The places reported of ii ere Berkshire, by Mr.
Collyer, who said that as the aristocracy were not with
them they should depend entirely on the tenantry; East
Sussex, by Mr. Smith; Norfolk and Suffolk, by Mr.
C. H. Lattimore, who added that branch societies were
being established in those counties to aid the central one,
and that subscriptions were freely offered for the pur•
pose; other parts of those counties by Mr. Northhouse,
who expressed his gratification at finding the press of
England generally favourable to their object, and warmly
advocated the necessity first, and the great advantage
next, of giving to the labourer a wholesome beverage like
home-brewed beer, instead of the deleterious adulterated
stuff he was often supplied with from the beer-shops—
those nurseries of vice, and not unfrequently of poaching
and incendiarism ; North Hampshire by Mr. Heriott,
who did not find a dissentient voice either to the object
of the association or subscriptions to support that
object; Nottinghamshire by Mr. Rowley, who had found
the local press generally disposed to favour the object of
the association, and thought that both landowners and
clergymen, if they were opposed to them, as alleged,
could not remain any longer inimical to the interests of
the farmer and labourer, whom a repeal of the malt-tax
would obviously serve. It was impossible that the heavy
labours of husbandry could be borne with advantage to
the proprietary unless those engaged in them received suffi •
:dent nourishment either in the shape of beef or barley.
Mr. SMITH (the treasurer) stated that the receipts to
the present day were 7131, which bad been expended in
giving publicity to their proceedings, and in other mea-
sures which had been pa ductive of much good. He
hoped that henceforth as hitherto their funds would he
adequate to their wants.
The CHAIRMAN did Lot altogether agree in the re-
mork that beer-shops were nurseries of vice. He con
ceived that gin-shops were the worse of the two, and
that beer• shops, in some cases great nuisances, were in
many instances attended with great advantage. He re
gretted, too, the remarks that had been made about the
aristocracy, particularly by Mr. Arkell, in Berkshire.
It' was better to leave them where they were, and for
that association strenuously to follow its own course.
Mr. ARKELL (of Wiltshire) wished to explain. What
he had said was, that the tenant-farmers must look no
longer to the landlords or the clergy of the county, but
to themselves alone. They had sought aid long enough
from those above them, who, instead of affording it, had
only. seduced and swindled them.—(Laughter.) He
should not find fault with the aristocracy if they kept their
proper places. He believed they were the better of
having three estates; but when he found the aristocracy
interfering to turn the tenant-farmer from the legitimate
exercise of his constitutional right, ho felt that he was
justified in complaining. He had received letters from
Members of Parliament and others of the same class,
telling him that this was not the proper time to seek for
a repeal of the malt-tax.—(A laugh.) If they waited for
seven years more they would be told just the same thing.
Mr. Neeld, the Member for Chippenham, stated at a
public meeting, held at Devizes, that the poor man ought
not to pay a duty on his beer; and yet, when he ad-
dressed a letter to that gentleman, requesting him, in
consequence of that declaration, to take the chair at their
meeting at Chippenham for a repeal of the malt-tax, his
reply was, that he would do no such thing, as the tune
for seeking that measure had not yet arrived.—(A laugh.)
' There was, no doubt, a time for all things, and Members
of Parliament must not, therefore, forget that there was
a particular season out of seven at which the tenant-
farmers and other electors were their masters.—(Hear.)
It was said that the removal of the malt-tax would cause
an increase in the income-tax. Even so ; those who
possessed large incomes ought to be the last to quarrel
about a heavy tax.—(Hear.) As for the malt-tax, he
believed that 19 out of every 20 of the farmers of the
country would wish to see it repealed.—(Hear.)
Mr. HARVEY (secretary to the Harlestowe Club) cor-
roborated the remarks of the last speaker. He yester-
day attended a meeting of the Agricultural Association
at Bury St. Edmund's, at which the chairman, Mr. Wad-
dington, one of the landowners of the neighbourhood,
said that this was not the proper time for seeking the
removal of the duty on malt, as it would cause the im-
position of another tax, and that, therefore, it was only
taking out of one pocket to put into another. He (Mr.
Harvey) thought the inference good, but with this addi-
tion, that it would be taking from the wrong to put into
the right pocket.—(Hear.)
Mr. ELMAN (of Lewes) congratulated the association
upon the fact that the Duke of Richmond had unequivo-
cally declared himself, at the meeting yesterday, in
favour of the repeal of the malt duty ; but considered it
necessary, in order to give full effect to that declaration,
to collect the sentiments upon the subject of the tenant-
farmers throughout the kingdom. Their sentiments
would be known on the 12th of January. He was con-
fident they would be unanimously in favour of the mea
sure ; and if so, they could then, in the opinion of the
Noble Duke, assume such a position as would deter any
Government from refusing their prayer. His Grace had
also said, and he agreed with him, that nothing could
be worse than to attempt anything by agitation that
could be gained in a manner to command universal re-
spect. That associaton was now in such a train, not
only to command respect, but to attain such a force as
must result in complete success. The whole opposition
they had met with at King's Lynn was from the teetotal-
lers, whose object was to discourage drunkenness ; but
the way to do so was not by driving the labourer to the
public-house, but by allowing him to enjoy a nourishing
and wholesome beverage at home.
Mr. B. B. CABDELL, M.P. (who was warmly received)
said, that he had promised his constituency, on the oc-
casion of his election, to support any petition in favour
of the great object they had in view •, and he should
most heartily do so.—(Hear, hear.) Being questinned
upon the subject of free trade, he said at once, " Let it
have a fair trial '." and with that reply the querists were
satisfied. If he had been asked to explain, he was pre-
pared to have answered that by a fair:trialhemeant a total
repeal of the malt-tax. He was prepared to have said
that if Sir R. Peel looked to his own honour or charac-
ter as the great minister of the greatest country in the
world, he would have included that measure in his re-
form of the tariff, instead of palming upon the country
as genuine that which he knew in his heart was false,
because wanting in that particular which could alone
have rendered it just and impartial.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. T. HODGSKIN, not a farmer, but a determined
free-trader, concurred with the Hon. Gentleman in re-
garding this as a question of free trade. Our trade with
foreign nations had been relieved, but the whole of the
home industry of the country was still very much op-
pressed by our odious system of excise laws. It could
not be doubted that at present there was in the public
mind a strong tendency to free trade and an equally
strong aversion to restrictions. But then this Associa-
tion was establishing itself solely for the removal of one
of those restrictions—that upon the manufacture of malt;

PRICE SD.

wnereasif they, adopted the view of the Hon. Gentle-
man who last addressed them, and placed the question
upon the basis of free trade, they ought not, in his (Mr.
Hodgskin's) opinion, to confine themselves to that ques-
tion, but seek for the repeal of the duty on soap, and of
all other r,-!strictions which press upon the home industry
of the country. In consequercz, of the remark which
fell from Mr. Cabbell he was led to suggest that if they
regarded the repeal of the malt tax as a free-traee Met-
sure, and wished its speedy success, they had placed
their association on too narrow a basis to obtain the
support
of the great body of the community, and must
consequently fail.

Mr.LATirmonE said, that making it part and parcel
of the great food question would give it popularity
enough. It was a measure which would benefit every
class, even the landed proprietors themselves, inasmuch
as it woul 1 lead to the better cultivation of land, and to
the bettering the condition of the peasant.
Mr. NORTHOUSE thought the question might very well
stand upon its own merits. It had the rare advantage of
uniting two adverse parties ; and was certainly due to
the farmers of the country as a set-off to the experiment
under which they were now suffering.
The CHAIRMAN observed that, however valuable the
suggestion of Mr. Hodgskin, and however
'willing any
gentleman there might be t adopt it, it was not now in
their power to alter the object for which the society had
been established. The immediate question for the meet-
ing to consider was, whether it would be advisable to
continue sending deputations to different parts of the
kingdom.
_ _ _

Mr. ARRELL was of opinion that no more deputations
should b 3 sent out until invited by some respectable party
in the district to which they were to go : and after some
conversation it was moved by Dr. Lamb (of East Sussex),
seconded by Mr. Elman, and unanimously agreed to,
that the association should adopt no further active steps
until after the meeting of the 12th January. Thanks
being then voted to the chairman and the deputations,
the association adjourned to the 13th of January.

SPANISH AMERICAN BOND-

HOLDERS.

The following letters and documents, received to-day
by the chairman of the committee of Spanish American
Bondholders, have been handed to us for publication. It
will be seen from the second letter that the uncertain-
ties regarding the last Mexican conversion have at
length been put to rest, and that the operation, as car-
ried out by Messrs. Schneider and Co., is confirmed:—
FROM MANNING AND MACKINTOSH, MEXICO, TO G. R.
ROBINSON, ESQ., CHAIRMAN OF THE COMMITTEE OF
SPANISH AMERICAN BONDHOLDERS, LONDON.
" MEXICO, OCT. 30, 1846.
" We were in due course favoured with your com-
munications of the 20th of June, Ist and 31st of August,
and paid particular attention to their contents. We
have been incessant in our applications to the Mexican
Government about the restitution of the fifth of duties
belonging to the holders of Mexican Bonds involved in the
general suspension of all payments decreed by this Go-
vernment, but, owing to the disturbed state of the coun-
try, the blockade of. its ports, and the imperative calls
for money upon au exhausted treasury, we have not
been able to get any satisfactory reply from the several
Ministers of Finance that have succeeded each other in
office within the last three months. Under these circum-
stances we made another attempt in applying by letter
(copy of which we enclose) to, the present Minister,
Don Antonio Ham Tamariz, who has verbally pro-
mised to attend to the business, and return us a decision
by next packet.

The unfortunate war with the United States is, in
our opinion, at present the chief cause of the difficulties
of the Mexican Government; and the worst of it is, that
it is difficult to assign a term to the hostilities between
the two countries.

Hoping to have it in our power to transmit you
further information by next steamer."
