BILL.

The house went into committee on this bill.
Mr. A. SMITII objected to the extensive and arbi-
trary powers which it was sought to confer upon the
Crown under the provisions of the bill.
Mr. HAMILTON explained that the object of the bill
was merely to carry out an arrargement made in 1357,
between the Crown and the bishopric of Durham. The
sixth clause saved to all persons and bodies corporate
and p‘ditic the same rights which they bail before the
bill, and there was therefore no aggression on the rights
cf the public whatever.
The bill, as amended, then paned through committee,
and the heue resumed.

PUBLIC HEALTH BILL.
Upon the %lotion for going into committee upon this
Mr. .PALK objected to the indefinite character of the
a!:(1 uxpres:"ed a doubt whether the dictatorial
powers which it conferred would, alter all, he adequate
to deal with the emergencies which now and thou arose
—such a state of things, for inetancr, AN hon, gentlemtn

bad reason to regret in the present condition of the
Thames. (Hear.) There were clauses in the bill which
he thought were not required. They would create a
council of medical officers without any specific employ-
ment, but with large salaries. He should like to knew
what were the new duties which this council were to
perform. He objected most strongly to taking indefi-
nite powers under this act, which were not laid down
in any way whatever, and which he believed would open
the door to jobbery.
Mr. ADDERLEY said this bill was a very simple
and short measure to provide for the services of the
medical officers who would still remain when the general
Board of Health expired in November next. He trusted
the hon. gentleman would allow them to go into own'
mittee. The mein object was to provide for the eine'
gency of epidemio and contagious disorders.

The house then went into committee.
On clause 4,
Mr. JOSEPH LOCKE remarked that this bill woe
about to make a very great change, by transferring the
powers under the bill from a board over which the house
bad power to the Privy Council, over which the house
had no power. He was not prepared to go on with the
bill, and in the absence of the bon. member for Fin!:
bury, who had amendments on the paper, if the biu
were persisted in he would move that the chairman re.
port progress. Why, the power was given to the Priv/
Council, and the power also of paying themselves sala-
ries too, and any amount of salary.
After a few words from Lord DUNCAN and Mr. Jesit-
SON to the same effect,
Mr. SOTHERON ESTCOURT said whatever might ff°
into tho clause respecting salaries, he apprehended the
matter would still lie with the house, and the house only
It was important, however, that the Privy Council should
have the power of employing other persons if necessary'
because it might so happen that an epidemic might break
out at the same moment in more places than one, rind 3
would be requisite that the Privy Council should have the
power of employing persons on the spot to give them 11°.
curate information.
After a few words from Mr. P. O'BRIEN,
Mr. GILPIN said he should support the motion that
the Chairman should report progress.
Mr. MONSELL thought that at the root of the object'
tion to this clause lay the idea that the medical officer Was
of no use at all. It appeared to him it would be better to
continue the progress of the bill, which, though short,
was ono of great importance.
Sir A. ELTON was of opinion that the house should go
on with this bill. When the bill was brought forward it
was sometimes stated to be tgo late, and sometimes tee
early ; but he hoped the committee would now at ono
proceed with the bill.
Viscount EBRINGTON said he could not for one
moment think of contrasting the advantages to be derived
from the services of an officer of health, and the compara-
tively small cost of those services.
Mr. COX said the clause would perpetrate as nice a job
as he had ever known. As the motion for reporting pro-
gress had not been seconded, he would move that the
Chairman do now report progress.
The motion having been seconded, the committee
divided, when the motion was lost by 140 to 32.
Mr. WALPOLE thought there was some force in the
observations which had been made as to the appointment
of medical officers. The Beard of Health had now the
power to appoint, not simply a medical officer, but A
medical council. The powers under this ant were more
limited. He thought it was most advisable to have some
medical officer on whom the Executive could rely. It Wall
objected that the latter part of the clause would enable
the Government to appoint several officers at a large es:
lary—(hear)—and ho proposed to add some words to meet
the difficulty.
Mr. JACKSON wished to know what was to be the
salary of the medical officer ?
Mr. WALPOLE-1,8001. a-year.
After further conversation,
The clause, with amendments, was agreed to, as were
also the remaining clauses of the bill.
JURIES (IRELAND) BILL.
On the motion of Mr. WHITESIDE, the bill was read
a second time.
MTANHOPE AND WOLSINGHAM RECTORIES
BILL.
This bill passed through committee, and the house re'
mined.

TRANSFER OF LAND BILL.
Upon the order of the day for the second reading of thie.
bill,
Sir It. BETHELL said he would not delay the 'Nona
reading of the bill at this hour further than to observe.
upon two circumstances—one, that in the other house 0,1
legislature the bill had received the support of her Majesty .!
Government ; and the other, that the principle of the bill
bad been so much discussed and so generally approved ill
the bill brought in by the learned Attorney-General for
Ireland, that it was only necessary to apply the same prin-
ciple to the present measure. Ho should suggest therefore,
that the bill be read a second time pro forma, on theta"
derstanding that it be left to go into committee after the
committal of the Transfer of Lands Bill in Ireland.
Mr. WALPOLE thought it would be unadvisable to
follow the suggestion of the hon. and learned gentlemou•
He would • not discourage any attempt to facilitate the
transfer of land, but the bill which had come down from
the other house was materially different to those matters
mentioned by his hon. and learned friend. Ha though!
the Court of Chancery would not be a popular and good
tribunal for the referring these questions to.
The bill was read a second time.

This bill passed through committee.
INSURANCE AND ASSURANCE INSTITUTIONS
BILL,
Upon the motion of the adjciurned debate on the second
reading of this bill.
Mr. G. A. HAMILTON said the bill involved such for,
portant interests that he trusted the hon. member weld('
not press the second reading during the present session
in which cane his right hoe. friend (ifr. Sotherton:
Estcourt) would withdraw his amendment to the effect
that it be read a second lime that day six months.
Mr. SHERIDAN accepted the offer of her Majestfis
Government, and withdrew his motion for the secono
reading.
WILLS OF BRITISH SUBJECTS ABROAD.
Sir R. BETHELL obtained leave to bring in a bill to,
amend the law in relation to the wills of British suhiee' '
dying whilst resident abroad. He proposed the bill should
come on for discussion at the same time as the bill of
right hon, gentleman the Attorney-General.

Sir R. BETHELL moved for leave to bring in a hilleit;

[ADVERTISIMENT]. —Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica F°°(l
supersedes the miseries of the materia medica, brings Tie.,
;
life and cheerfulness to the invalid, and renders the pree,;';
of cure both pleasant and certain. FIFTY THOUSA':
well-known and recorded cases establish this ; and the ull--;
ber of witnesses to its effects is daily increasing. Amone
the female sex its salutary effects are as marked as among'
t
males. Miss Rizabeth Jacobs writes, from Nazing Vicarage
i
near Waltham Cross, Ilerts :—" I have been suffering, at
least, seven years, in the p ime of life, from indigestion, %cif'''.
vousness, headache inflammation, and gatherings, l
spirits, general debility, sleeplessness, and delusions ;
during all that time, I have required, every year, so ninc
medical attendance, that I have been almost ruined by
doctors' bills." She then presents her heartfelt gratitude to
Messrs. Du Barry, for the complete cure effected by 9'l
Barry's Food. Mrs. Mary Godsmark, of Huuton, writes--
" Your excellent Food has released me from ea
incredible accumulation of suffering, for which dull.
the last eight years, all kinds of medicines had been tried
in vain. My feelings and sufferings, previous to taking pour
Food, were the following—lndigestion, nervousness, bilioms-
floss, affection of the liver and kidneys, costiveness, palPitg.
tiou of the heart, noises in the ear, pains in almost an the
body, low spirits, general debility, loss of memory, wretched-
ness, thoughts of self-destruction." James Port, r, °`
Perth, returns thanks on behalf of a lady, who had been for
13 years afflicted with indigestion, prostration of strength,
dre., accompanied by cough. Mr. Thomas Walker, of King'''.
road, Chelsea, expresses his " gratitude and pleasure" for the
good done by the Food to his wife, who, previous to taking it,
" had been suffering for a long time from dyspepsia' produc-
ing alternately diarrhoea, and the opposite state of the sye-
tem ; and although medicine gave temporary relief, it proved
of no lasting l,enefit." Mary Gelbert, of Tre-ragler, near Pen•
zance, says:—" Eighteen years' nervous debility, violent pal-
pitation of the heart, throbbing of the temples, violent paints
in the left side and back, shortness of breath, cough, numb-
ness of the extremities, cramps, spasms, flatulency, retching,
and such geu,ral weakness, that I was constantly fearful
of falling, when on my legs ; all these symptoms have
been removed by Du Barry's excellent Food." It is impos'
sible to make room in a newspaper paragraph for the varied
but concurrent language of thankfulness in which the writers
describe their escape from their sufferings. •It is a proud and
enviable position for Messrs. Du Barry to feel themselves the
acknowledged benefactors of multitudes of their fellow-Wu:l'
Supported by testimonials from the following celebrated Pro-
fessors of Chemistry: Dr. A. Ure; Dr. Shorland; Dr. IferleY!
