COCKLE'S CAMOMILE PILLS.

6 6 OF all the Tonic Medicines which have been
offered to public notice, Mr. Cockle's preparation of
Camomile in the form of Pills, is undoubtedly the best; and we
feel great pleasure in asserting its pre-eminent virtues over every
other Stomachic Medicine. In all cases of debility, but particularly
of the stomach, it has never failed to produce the most beneficial
results. Its happy effects also, in cold, listless, and debilitated
habits, have been manifested in numerous cases, far beyond expec-
tation ; its action is that of a powerful Tonic and Stomachic, pro-
moting animation—liveliness—and desire for food. Indeed, so
very popular has this Medicine now become, that there has been,
we understand, an unprecedented demand for it from all parts of
the Kingdom ; and it must be highly flattering to the feelings of
Mr. Cockle, to receive such numerous attestations of its extraor-
dinary efficacy, and the cures performed by it, from families of the
first distinction. The medical properties of the Camomile were
never so powerfully and beneficially concentrated, and so judiciously
applied, as in these highly applied Pills of Mr. Cockle. Standard.
They may be had in bottles at Is 2s. 9d., and Us. each,
of all vendors of- " Mr. COCKLE'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS."

ejH. WATCHORN'S Superior FOREIGN
• WINES, NEW WHOLESALE DEPARTMENT, in
NEW-CUT, FOUR DOORS FROM THE RETAIL ESTA-
BLISHMENT, MARSH-GATE, WESTMINSTER-BRIDGE
ROAD, LAMBETH.
The Spirit Trade attached to this Establishment has long been
conducted on principles most beneficial and satisfactory to the pub-
lic, and the proprietor has been rewarded by a share of business,
in that department, second to none in the Metropolis. Anxious to
afford the same advantages to his friends, and the public generally,
in the purchase of Wines as in Spirits, he has long awaited the
opportunity of being enabled to place his Establishment, as a Wine
Depot, upon the same proud footing as the other branches of his
trade, and which the recent improvements in his immediate neigh-
bourhood have afforded him the means of carrying into effect, upon a
scale unequalled in the Wine and Spirit Trade ; the result of which
he begs to lay before a discerning public ; and in doing which, dis-
claims any intention to question the various pretensions put forth
by the " thousand and one" wine-merchants of London, who lay
claim to the public patronage, and is also fully aware of the strong
feelings of prejudice entertained by many sensible persons to all
advantages offered them in an advertisement, however self-evident
they may be ; who cannot be made to believe that any pains-taking
tradesman, of years' standing, by firmly relying at all times on the
smallest profits, has been enabled to invest, in a Stock of some of
the rarest Wines in Europe, or in existence, upwards of 30,0001. ;
who cannot credit that by such means they can have their most
favourite Wine, of whatever description, in its utmost excellence, at
to them a surprisingly moderate price. And why? Because, for-
sooth, the fact is advertised.
To remove such mischievous prejudices, and to meet the daily in-
creasing demand for his Wines, J. H. Watchorn has, in addition to
his other cellars, opened his new Wine Department and spacious
Vault, which from its extent has been (not inaptly) compared to
that noble achievement of genius the Thames Tunnel, in which may
be seen at once glance 200 pipes down in bottle of the most
recherche classes of the Wines of the Rhine, France, Spain,
and Portugal, possessing every variety of ago, quality, and flavour
in their assortment, to view which he especially invites private fa-
milies and the public generally. To the connoisseur in particular
he cannot resist naming a butt of Sherry, in pints, for which, from
its singular excellence, he gave 300 guineas, shipped expressly for
his establishment. Also a pipe of East India Madeira, 30 years in
that country, which its high flavour will fully confirm.
And while quality has been predominant in J. H. W.'s mind in
providing a stock of the rich and rare worthy his cellars and his re-
putation, he has not neglected Wine of an economical character.
And as the basis of his large Spirit Trade was formed on small pro-
fits anti large returns, so in his new Wine Department will he adopt
his favourite maxim, by offering Wines of the very highest charac-
ter at comparatively low prices, thus making his own interest fall in
with that of the consumer, and securing to himself an extensive and
lasting connexion. Upon these solidgrounds he confidently sub-
mits his claims for general support.

PARLIAMENT OF THE UNITED KINGDOM.

HOUSE OF LORDS, DEC. 18.
At two o'clock the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Ross-
lyn, and Earl Jersey, having taken their seats in the library
as Lords Commissioners for the further prorogation of Par-
liament, Mr. Pulman, the Yeoman Usher of the Black
Rod, was directed to summon the Commons to hear the
Commission for the further prorogation read.
In the course of a few minutes Mr. Rickman, one of the
Clerks of the Table, with Mr. Hughes Hughes, and Mr.
Cripps, attended by the clerks and officers of the House,
appeared at the bar, when the Commission was read, after
which the Lord Chancellor said,

" My Lords and Gentlemen,
" By virtue of the Commission to us and other Lords
rsrected, which has been now read, and in obedience to his
majes,:;'s commands, we hereby, in his Majesty's name,
further prorogue this Parliament to Thursday, the 15th of
Januar next, to be; then here holden ; and this Parliament
y
to Thursday, the 15th January."
is accordingly proroguec:
e of Commons and attendants
The Members of the
then retired from the bar, and the
_Lords Commissioners
quitted their seats. . .
The only Peers present on the oceasit;.n, in addition to
the Lords Commissioners, were the Marquu of Ormond
and Lord Colville.

The late Thomas Snodgrass, Esq., the wealthy
Nabob of Chesterfield-street, May-fair, was a very eccentric
character. Returning from India many years ago with an im-
mense fortune, he fitted up a mansion in Chesterfield-street
with extraordinary splendour, but never received company II
it more than once. He has left the enormous sum of 175,0001.
to the daughter of a widow lady, named Russell, residing in
Beaumont-street, Devonshire-place, solely because her father
was kind to him when he first went to India.

CORONER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday afternoon an in-
quest was held at the Red Lion Inn, Acton, before Mr. Stir-
ling, on view of the body of Mr. George Davis, aged 38, a re-
spectable tradesman, who destroyed himself under the follow-
ing melancholy circumstances :—John Elliot, a labouring man,
residing at Chiswick, deposed that on Monday afternoon last
he was returning from Harrow, and in passing a lane near
Acton he discovered the body of the deceased in a pond. He
obtained assistance, and it was conveyed to this inn. It ap-
peared to have been in the water some time. Witness did not
observe any marks of violence on the body.—Mr. John Chalk,
of the Broadway, Hammersmith, deposed that he had known
the deceased for the last twenty years. He (deceased) car-
ried on the business of an extensive clothes salesman in Ham-
mersmith. Witness bad frequently of late been in the corn-
pany of the unfortunate man, and had observed that he was in
a very low state of mind, and on inquiring the cause, the reply
the deceased made was—" Oh, my dear friend, my family
comes on me so fast that I am afraid I shall not be able to
bring them up. I fear they will all be reduced to destitution
and a workhouse." Th© deceased was the father of ten chil-
dren, the eldest of whom was only fourteen years of age.
The last time witness saw the deceased alive was on Sunday
morning last, when he appeared in the same dejected state,
and it was on the same morning that he (deceased) absented
himself from his family, and was not heard of until the sad in-
telligence of his body being found at Acton reached his
friends. Two brothers of the deceased were examined, and
spoke to the deceased's distressed state of mind of late, from
the fear of his family coming to want, although his (de-
ceased's) circumstances were by no means bad. Some pieces
of paper in the deceased's hand-writing, and which were found
in his bed-room, aftef he left home, were produced, and from
the incoherent style in which they were written, as well as ex-
pressions used indicating his intention of self-destruction, the
jury were satisfied, and returned a verdict of " Insanity."

Mr. HALE brought up, the moment the proceedings of
the last Court were confirmed, the following report
We, whose names are hereunto subscribed, your Com-
mittee for letting the City lands on the account of the Cham-
berlain of London, to whom on the 12th day of December in-
stant it was referred to confer with the Special Committee
appointed in relation to a new street northward of Farringdon-
street, on the subject of the enlargement of Smithfield Mar-
ket, and to consider whether the enlarged site should be on
the west or on the north side of the present market, and to
report thereon, do certify that we have proceeded in the said
reference, and conferred with the said Committee accordingly,
when they suggested that a great advantage would arise by
the purchase of property between King-street and West-
street, and that the same would promote the ultimate success
of forming a new great notthern road from Farringdon-street,
and that in the event of such northern road being effected, a
onvenient way for cattle into the same would;be obtained from
the market. We, therefore, directed the Clerk of the City's
Works to estimate the expense of purchasing the property re-
ferred to, agreeably to a plan to be proposed for the purpose,
and he has since reported to us that he had prepared a plan,
and presented the same to the said Special Committee,
who bad been pleased to express their approbation
thereof, and he had estimated the expense of the pur-
chase of the property comprised therein at the sum of 79,000/.
We, your Committee, beg leave also to report that although
the adoption of such plan would afford equal space with that
already recommended by us for the purchase of property on
the north side of the market, it would occasion an extra ex-
pense of about 13,0001. beyond such last-mentioned plan ; and
we, your Committee, having fully considered the subject, are
of opinion that the site recommended by us will be the most
advantageous for the enlargement of the market, from its con-
venient connection with the present market, and preferable to
that recommended by the said Special Committee ; and as
general satisfaction has been expressed to the plan already re-
commended by us, and the same having been submitted to and
approved by a Committee of the House of Commons, and as
considerable expense will in our opinion be saved thereby to
the Corporation, we are of opinion that it should be. adopted
in preference to any other, all of which we submit to the judg-
ment of this Honourable Court," &c. &c.
Alderman HAaMrg moved as an amendment that the
report should be sent back for reconsideration.

'Mr. GALLOWAY advocated the amendment.

After a discussion the original motion was carried by a
very large majority, and the work of enlarging will iurms-
diately commence.

ALDERMANIC EXPENDITURE.

A Report was brought up from the Committees of Coal
and Corn and Finance, on the reference to consider the
best mode of consolidating both Committees.

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

In a conversation upon the necessity of an early applica-
tion to Parliament for the renewal of the Act for regulating
the vend and delivery of coals, the report was agreed to.
