BUCKINGHAM PALACE.

Colonel TRENCH took occasion to call the attention
of Members to the report on Buckingham Palace, and he
hoped that they would read only a few pages of it in pre-
paration for his motion on Friday next; 700,0001. had
already been expended upon this building, to which were
to be added about 75,0001. for completing some of the
apartments, besides an unascertained sum for the state-
rooms, in order to complete which, it would be found ne-
cessary to make indefinite purchases of land and houses in

Alter a few words from Mr. C. PELHAM,
Mr. HUME recommended that a sum for only one
quarter should be taken upon the Miscellaneous, as upon
the other Estimates, in order that time might be afforded
for inquiry.
Mr. S. RICE said, that the Miscellaneous Estimates
were not to be brought forward to-night.
PORTUGAL.
Mr. G. ROBINSON asked whether any and what pre-

eauttone tea teen taken for its preteetin 61:Britisb tM.
on the coast of Portugal, in the event of certain contin-
gencies rendering it necessary ?
Sir J. GRAHAM said, that at present there was a
British Admiral off the coast of Portugal, to whom in-
structions had been sent to give all possible protection to
the trade of this country.
COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY.
The House then resolved into a Committee of Supply.
Lord ALTHORP said that the Committee was aware
that a considerable destruction of property was occasioned
by a hurricane last year in the islands of Barbadoes, S,.
Vincent, and Trinidad. Application for relief was made to
the Government on the part of the sufferers. and reference
was made to 1780, when a similar calamity destroyed
property to the amount of a million sterling in the West
ladies, and the Government of that day came forward with
a grant of 80,0001. for the relief of the sufferers. Under
all the circumstances, the Noble Lord was sure that the
Committee would not think 100,0001. an extravagant grant
on the present occasion, property having been destroyed to
the amount of 1,700,0001. He concluded by moving a
resolution, to the effect that, " 100,0001. be granted to
his Majesty for the relief of certain of his Majesty's sub-
jects whose property had been destroyed by a hurricane."
Mr. BURGE expressed ha approbation of the principle
on which the grant was given.
Mr. HUME, although reluctant to oppose the grant as a
matter of sympathy or policy, yet did not agree with the
Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Burge) that the relief was founded
on a principle which Parliament could recognise.
Lord ALTHORP did sot propose the grant as matter
of principle, but he thought that if ever there was a ease
which called for the consideration of the House, it was
that of those sufferers.—(Hear.) Nor could the grant
he taken as a precedent, because the precedent had been
given in 1780.

Mr. GOULBURN contended that grants of that nature
were founded on principles of humanity and justice.
Mr. ROBINSON inquired on what responsibility the
grant was to be appropriated?
Lord ALTHORP replied, that the Government was
responsible for the appropriation ; and that the money
would be advanced to those who had suffered in proportion
to their losses and to their capability of sustaining them.
Mr. HUNT thought that the paupers in Bethnal-green
had as strong claims upon the sympathy of the House as
the islanders of the West Indies, and be should, thereore,
move that the sum of 101,000/. be granted, of which
rl,OOO/. should be given for the relief of the poor in Beth-
nal •green.
Lord ALTHORP said, that a sum larger than that prl..
posed by the Hon. Member for Preston had already been
appropriated to the relief of the poor in Bethnal-green, so
that the overseers had been enabled to take tleebardaia
persons out of the workhouse.

The grant of 100,000/. was then agreed to.
THE BRITISH MUSEUM.

Mr. A. RARING rose to move the customary annual
vote for defraying the expellees of the British Museum.
Any Hon. Member who took the trouble to look at the
Estimates for the current year would see that they did not
materially differ from the accounts of the preceding year,
excepting in this particular, that there had been provision
made for defraying the expenses of a negotiation that had
been concluded for a valuable body of manuscripts, called
the Arundel Manuscripts. These had been obtained from
the Royal Society in exchange for a number of duplicate
books, the difference of value (9001.) having been paid on
the part of the Museum. There was also a further ex-
pense incurred this year of 6001. for the purchase of sonic
coins and medals, the possession of which were deemed to
he of consideaable importance. It was considered by the
Members of the Royal Society, and by the Trustees of the
Museum, that a considerable public benefit was effected in
this transfer of the Arundel Manuscripts from the possession
of the one to the other, for the persons to whom alone
they would be useful were not accustomed to consider the
apartments of the Royal Society as a place where sueh do-
cuments would be likely to be found, and, therefore, in
their hands they remained nearly useless ; whereas, in the
library of the Museum circumstances were directly the re-
verse. He had to inform the House that an important
change had recently been made in the regulations of the
Museum—instead of being closed one day in the week, as
heretofore, it was now open for the whole six days. During
the last year, the number of general visitors to the Museum
amounted to 38,000, and of visits paid to the I ibrary
there were nearly 100,000. The sum for which he had
then to apply to Parliament was 16,922/. for defraying
the expenses of the British Museum during the year end-
ing at Christmas, 1832.
Sir C. WETHERELL supported the vote.
. _

Mr. HUME was glad to find that the number of
visitors at the Museum had increased during the past year,
but there was one circumstance to which he wish( dto
call the attention of the House. In January last the Bri-
tish Museum had a balance in band of 5,000!. Now be
really saw no reason for continuing to that establishment
a surplus, when most of the other public establishments of
the country contrived to do without any more money than
was barely necessary for carrying on their current expences.
Mr. BARING replied, that in the votes for the British
Museum it had always been the practice to leave as it were
a quarter's inc,,me in advance.
The vote was then agreed to, she House resumed, aud
the report was ordered to he received to-morrow.

LORD CHANDOS'S MOTION•

Upun referring to the motio❑ made by Lord Ebrington
in the House of Commons on the 10th of October last,
when the Reform Bill was defeated in the House of Lords,
We find it was couched in the following words :
" That whilst this House deeply laments the present
fate of a Bill for amending the representation of the people
in England and Wales, in favour of which the opinion of
the country stands unequivocally pledged, and which was
matured by discussions the most anxious and laborious, it
feels duly called upon to re-assert its firm adherence to the
principle and leading provisions of that great measure,
and to express its unabated confidence in the integrity,
perseverance, and abilities of those Ministers, who, in in-
troducing ar.d conducting it, have so well consulted the
best interests of the country."
In referring also to the list of those who supported that
resolution, we find the names of—

Adeane, J. W. North, F.
Bentinck, Lord G. Villiers, T. 11,
Colborne, N. W. It. I Watson, Hon. It.
Denison, J. E. Willoughby, Sir H.
Lemon, Sir C. Agnew, Sir A.
Mills, J. Johnstone, J. J. H.
Now, as these gentlemen were amongst those who voted
for Lord Chandos's motion on Tuesday, we beg to ask
them, whether they think that giving representatives to
the metropolitan districts is, or is not, a leading provision
of the Reform Bill ? And we further ask these gentlemen
if they think they have redeemed the pledge they gave in
October last, by voting against his Majesty's Ministers,
and this "leading provision" of their Reform Bill, in
favour of a motion made by the bitterest enemy of the Bill,
ani for the sole purpose of destroying it ? Times.

AN EFFECTUAL CURE for the CHOLERA.

The following is an extract from a letter, dated Vienna,l
August 9:—
" The communication which I herewith enclose, ought
to be made public in every quarter of Great Britain. for
it details the easiest and most effectual mode of treatment,
under attacks of the cholera, which has hitherto been pro-
posed or practised :
" The Jews of Weizniz have been eminently judicious
in their treatment of the cholera; for in that town, out
of 240 individuals who have been attacked by it, every
one of them has been saved, with the exception of two
persons who refused to submit to it. As one of the
members appointed to conduct the sanitary establishment,
I was an eve-witness to the treatment observed, and have
already saved the lives of my three servants, who were at-
taeked, lay adopting it. The several points of the reme4y
are these following.
= a pint of strong spirits of wine, and half a pint
of gond white vinegar, add to them one ounce of
powdered camphor, one ounce of flour of mus:ard,
or bruised mustard-seed, a quarter of an ounce of
ground pepper, and a full tea-spoonful of bruised gar-
lick; and lastly, half an ounce of powdered canthari,!es.
31ix them well together in a bottle, and expose the mix-
ture for twelve hours in the sun, or otherwise place it in
some warm spot, taking care to shake it repeatedly.
As soon as the person is attacked, let him be instantly
put to bed, under warm coverlids, and let his bands and
feet he rubbed powerfully and uninterruptedly with the
lotion, after it has been warmed. During this operation,
let the patient take a glass of strong drink, composed of
two parts of c tinomile flowers, and one part of balm mint.
" Persevere in this course, and at the end of fifteen mi-
nutes at the utmost (the patient's head and body being
kept well covered beneath the bed-clothes) he will break
out into a profuse perspiration.
" The patient must be kept in this state between two
and three hours, but care must be taken that he does not
fall asleep. After this, remove the extra covering from
off the bed, and he will drop into a slumber, which will
I ist between six and eight hours, and be accompanied by
a gentle perspiration.
" When he awakes, he will find himself weak, but the
disease will have entirely left him, and he will require
nothing further but rest and moderate diet to restore him
to perfect health.
" Especial attention must be paid, that the patient,
after the operation of rubbing, does not so much as lift a
finger above the clothes, for the slightest chill, whilst the
perspiration is upon him, would be his death.
" Wr:en the cramps in the stomach come on, we apply
very hot dry bandages of bran and ashes to the pit of the
stomach, and when necessary, a bladder of hot water to
the region of the navel.
" The great point is to produce strong perspiration, and
to restore the circulation of the blood, which, at the be-
ginning of the attack, is drawn from the surface of the
body, and thrown with frightful virulence on its inward
parts. . . _

" Frem my own experience, and the repeated proofs I
have had of its entire efficacy, I cannot hut most con-
scientiously recommend this mode of treatment to univer
sal adoption.

(Signed) " RIVER,
" Commissioner of the district of Bochnia."

AYLESBURY, FEB. 29.

This was the gest day of the Circuit. The Judges,
Barons VAUGLIAN and GlifiNEY, arrived here yesterday
evening, and to day the Assizes were opened for the county
of Buckingham. The calendar is unusually heavy, but
there are no cases beyond those of an ordinary character.
It was near one o'clock before their Lordships took their
seats on the Bench,—Baron Vaughan in the Criminal
Court, sad Baron Gurney in the Civil Bill.
The Grand Jury having been sworn, the Judge charged
them very shortly, when several cases of housebreaking
and petty larceny were immediately proceeded with.
The only case tried of any importance was the following
one of horse-stealing :
John Peacock, said to be an itinerant preacher of the
Methodist connection, was indicted for feloniously stealing
a grey horse, the property of W. H. Bailie, E‘q. of Brad-
well, in this county.
Davy examined—ls servant of Mr. Bailie, and lives
at Bradwell ; remembers missing the grey horse on the
26th of August last, and saw it afterwards in Southern, in
an adjoining county.
Wm. Roland examined—Lives at Bradwell ; keeps a
beer-house ; saw the prisoner on the 26th of August last
at his house, between eight and half past nine o'clock ; he
was dressed in a fustian jacket and trowsers, and carried
a flak basket, which lie took with him ; the horse stolen
was kept about half a mile from his (Roland's) house.

Thomas Pullin examined—l was employed at Stayer-
ton, and recollect the •6th of August last. It was on
Friday. I saw the prisoner at the bar coming into the
gate of my master's inn at Staverton. He had a basket,
and was dressed in a fustian dress. He had come off a
grey horse, which had been hard ridden. He ordered
the bridle to be taken off the horse, and to have oats and
beans given him. I went before a Magistrate at Stoney
Stratford on the Thursday following, and saw the grey
horse there I had seen before at Staverton.
Richard Hart examined—l have seen the prisoner be-
fore, and saw a grey horse with the prisoner at Southern.
A p,rson was with him who was about buying the horse,
but the man declined. I looked at the horse, and the
prisoner aak,d 14/. for bin!. He afterwards exchanged
the horse with a person named Clarke. The horse seemed
to have been very hard ridden, and had received bad usage.
I saw the ham afterwards before the Magistrates.

3he Jury having been charged, almost immediately re-
turned a verdict of Guilty. Sentence of death recorded ;
his Lordship at the same time intimating that the pri-
soner must expect to be sent out of the country for life.
In the Civil Court two or three cases were tried,
hat none of them of public interest.

`I I NO It THEATREs.--,Yesterday a meeting of
the inhattitatits of St. James's Clerkenwell, was held at
the Angel Inn, Islington, when a petition to Parliament
was agreed to, praying for the repeal of all laws which re-
strict dramatic performances at the minor theatres.
THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON.—The Duke
of WELLINGTON has been censured for giving battle with
a forest in his rear. His worshippers would have the
circumstance advantageous to him. It is obvious to the
plainest understanding, with the knowledge of the forest
of Soignies, that it must have embarrassed the most or-
derly, and proved ruinous to a precipitate retrograde move-
ment. But a victorious General ma) smile at the reproach
of not having made it his paramount object to secure a re-
treat. The Duke of WELLINGTON, it is admitted on all
sides, placed brave men in a position where they could best
tight. His coup-d'ceil, physical and moral—of the field of
battle, and of its incidents—was comprehensive, steady,
and sagacious; during the engagtm-nt he was active, pru •
dent, decisive, and brave—inspiring courage and confi-
dence by his self-possessen and personal contempt of dan-
ger. He may be entitled to a place with EUGENE and
3IARLBOROUGH—minds of such stature as every age might
and generally does produce ; but it would be a vain effort
of impotent adulation to rank him with HANNIBAL,
C csaa, and NAPOLEON. His career has been brilliant,
and r Xthre
of great results; but still he may call him.
