BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS

Price ls. lid. and 25. 9d. per box.
This preparation is one of the benefits which the science of
modern chemistry has conferred upon mankind ; for, during
the first twenty years of the present century to speak of a
cure for the Gout was considered a romance; but now the
efficacy and safety of this medicine is so fully demonstrated,
by unsolicited testimonials from persons in every rank of life,
that public opinion proclaims this as one of the most im-
portant discoveries of the present age.
These Pills require no restraint of diet or confinement
during their use, and are certain to prevent the disease
attacking any vital part.
Sold by all medicine vendors. Observe " Thomas Prout,
229, Strand, London," on the Government stamp.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Only a moderate supply of English wheat was on offer in
to-day's market. The attendance of both town and coun-
try millers was limited, and the trade ruled heavy, at
Monday's currency.
A large supply of foreign wheat—over 22,000 quarters—
has come to hand this week. All descriptions were a dull
inquiry, but we have no change to notice in their value.
In floating cargoes of grain, very little was passing.
The few samples of grinding barley on offer were taken
at full prices ; but malting qualities were very dull.
Malt moved off slowly on former terms.
We had a dull sale for oats, at barely stationary prices.
Beans, peas, and flour were dull, but not cheaper.

WYLD'S MAPS OF THE WAR.

1. Wyld's Military Map of the Theatre of War.
2. Wyld's Theatre of War ; Quartermaster-General's
Map. No. I.
Mr. Wyld, as usual, keeps abreast of the wants of the
day with his excellent maps, The first of these includes
the entire territories adjacent to the war : the south of
Germany, south-west of France, Austria, Switzerland, part
of Bavaria, as well as Piedmont and Lombardy, with the
Duchies [of Farina and Modena, and the States of the
Church as far as Ancona, and Tuscany as far as Leghorn.
Though, from its comprehensiveness, on the scale of 20
miles to an inch, we find the names of nearly all the small-
est places yet referred to in 't ; while it presents the whole
scene to the eye at once. The second map covers but the
extent of country in which military operations have been,
or are now, conducted, and indicates the positions of the
troops. It is on the large scale, thetefore, of three miles to
an inch, and gives every place great and small. We can-
not too strongly recommend it to all who wish to obtain p,
clear conception of the various movements. We found its
aid, for instance, invaluable in drawing up the resume of
the invasion of,Piedmont by the Austrians, and their final
repulse, which we laid before our readers yesterday.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical readv. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other aqually flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" hare-delayed so long upon the contents of .the preli-
raillery chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Bickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 5, 1859,

LORD STANLEY FOR THE CITY OF

LONDON.

We understand that a requisition, adequate in
weight and importance to the occasion, has been
adopted, calling on Lord Stanley to offer himself
at the coming election, as a candidate for the repre-
sentation of the City of London. A better selec-
tion could not have been made. The noble lord
has established a reputation, not surpassed by any
contemporary statesman, for deep and varied
practical knowledge, for habits of business, for
administrative capacity, and for a happy union
of Conservative principle with Liberal policy, ad-
mirably and naturally adapted to the temper of
the English people. His successful services in
consolidating the Imperial power, and his promi-
nent share in the Administration which has done
more than any of its more immediate predecessors
towards aiding progress in wisely liberal legislation
at home, and in maintaining peace abroad, ought
especially to recommend him to the favour of the
greatest commercial constituency in the world.
That Lord Stanley would one day represent the
city which has been the scene of his later adminis-
trative labours, had long been foreshadowed. That
the expected event should thus have been advanced
in point of time, seems almost a retributive Conse-
quence of the proceedings which have brought
about the present complication in our national
affairs.—Morning Chronicle.
London, England, 1859-04-05

VOTE BY BALLOT.

Mr. H. BERKELEY gave notice that on Tuesday
evening next he would bring under the consideration of the
house the subject of vote by ballot. (Hear, hear, and
laughter.)
THE PHCENIX CLUB MEMBERS.
Captain D. O'CONNELL asked the Attorney-General
for Ireland whether it was a fact, as stated by
several of the Irish journals, that at the late
trial at Tralee of Daniel Sullivan, accused of
being a member of the Phcenix Society, the 11 Roman
Catholic persons who were called and answered, were
directed to " stand by" by the Crown, and that one of the
persons so excluded was a magistrate of the county of
Kerry, appointed by the present Lord Chancellor of
Ireland ?

Lord NAAS said that he had received a communication
from the Solicitor-General for Ireland on the subject, but
he was not in a position t• state whether the announce-
ments made in the Irish newspapers were correct or not.
PUBLIC BUSINESS.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved
that the Government orders of the day should have prece-
dence of notices of motion on this and all subsequent days
until the end of the session.

THE MAYNOOTH GRANT. a
Mr. SPOONER said he would postpone his motion,
which stood on the paper relative to the house going into
committee to consider the act relative to the endowment of
the College of Maynooth, with a view to the repeal of the
charge on the consolidated fund. He withdrew the motion
solely from the state of business in the house, and not from
any alteration of opinion on the subject, for he still consi-
dered that the grant in question was opposed to the spirit
of a Protestant country like England

THE OFFICE OF SECRETARY OF STATE.

Mr. WILLIAMS asked whether the statement was true
which had been made publicly that the Earl of Malmes-
bury had, up to the present time, refused to pay the £2OO
stamp duty required by the act 55 Geo. 111., c. 184, to be
paid on the patent of appointment to the office of Secre-
tary of State ; and whether, in consequence of such refusal,
the patent of appointment of the Earl of Clarendon to the
office of Foreign Secretary did not now exist unrevoked

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
his noble friend the Earl of Malmesbury was ready
to pay the fee if he was satisfied that those who
preceded him had. (Laughter.) The matter had been sub
mitted to his hon. friend the Attorney-General, who would
make a report to him on the subject.

COLONIAL.

TEA.—The market has been exceedingly firm, and prices
have tended upwards. Good common congou is quoted
131 d per lb.
SUGAR.—Prices generally have been steady, but the
inquiry for home consumption has not been active. In the
Refined Market the demand has been very moderate, with
little alteration to report in values.
COFFEE.—The market being very bare of good qualities,
prices are fully maintained for plantation Ceylon.; and
other descriptions are at full rates. The falling off in the
stocks on hand, compared with those of the same period of
the past year, amount to about 1,900 tons.
RlCE.—There has been more inquiry, and a rather ex-
tensive business has been done, at slightly improved rates.
SALTPETRE.—The market has been rather more active,
and prices are firmer. Bengal 4 per cent. refraction sold
for 40s per cwt.
INDIGO.—In the private market there is very little busi-
ness doing. The next private sales are fixed to commence
on the 10th of May, and the quantity to be offered is esti-
mated at about 10,000 chests.
TALLOW.—The market has been dull, but prices have
exhibited no material alteration. P.Y.C. on the spot is
quoted 53s to 53s 3d, and last three months 63s 6d per cwt.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

Mr. Disraeli has issued the following Address to
the Electors of the county of Buckingham :
GENTLEMEN,--A Parliamentary majority, composed of
discordant sections, has availed itself of its numerical
strength to embarrass her Majesty's Government, amt by
a disingenuous manceuvre, to intercept the discussion of
their measures.

A year ago, Lord Derby was summoned by her Majesty
to undertake the administration of public affairs. Assisted
by his colleagues, he has, with diligence and devotion, en-
deavoured to discharge his duty to the country.
The blow which has lately been inflicted on the Govern-
ment deprives it of authority, and yet in the ranks of the
Opposition there is no more unity of sentiment than when
their distracted politics rendered it necessary that Lord
Derby should assume the helm.

The Opposition in the present House of Commons,
which was elected under ambiguous circumstances,, is
broken into sections, which can always combine and over-
throw the Queen's Government, however formed. This
is a condition alike prejudicial to Parliament and to the
Empire.

It is for the country to comprehend and to remedy these
evils.

The moment is critical. England has engaged to mediate
between two great monarchs, and, if possible, preserve
for Europe the blessings of peace. It is necessary that the
Queen's Government should be supported by a patriotic
Parliament.

Her Majesty, therefore, under the advice of her Mini-
sters, will shortly prorogue the present Parliament, with a
view to its immediate dissolution, and will recur to the
sense of her people, so that those who may be entrusted
with her Majesty's confidence may be enabled to conduct
the Government with becoming authority.
Under these circumstances I rely on the loyalty and
public spirit of the county of Buckingham to rally round
her Majesty's Government, and to return me, for the sixth
time, their Member to Parliament.—l have the honour to
be, gentlemen, your obliged and faithful servant,
B. DISRAELI.

THE Q UEENBORO UGH MURDER.

Our readers will remember that at the late assizes
for the county of Kent a young man named Fredk.
Prentice was indicted for the murder of a young
girl, named Emma Coppins, at Queenborough, by
cutting her throat. The evidence clearly established
the guilt of the prisoner, and indeed he never at-
tempted to deny that he was the author of the crime,
and when he was placed at the bar before Mr. Baron
Martin he pleaded guilty to the charge, and although
the learned judge earnestly impressed upon him the
serious consequences that would inevitably result
from such a plea, he persisted in it, and the prisoner
was thereupon sentenced to be executed. The un-
happy young man, who is only twenty years of age,
his victim being only seventeen, appears to have
conducted himself in the most exemplary manner
ever since he has been in the gaol at Maidstone,
and has paid the most earnest attention to the dis-
courses of the Rev. Mr. King, the chaplain of the
gaol; and it also appears that since he has been in
prison he has learned to read and write. The only
motive that can be assigned for the commission of
the dreadful crime by the prisoner appears to be
that he was deeply attached to the deceased, and
that she had rejected his addresses, and, in fact, for
some reason or other, she appeared to be afraid of
the prisoner, and always seemed desirous to shun
him ; and, finding that there was no likelihood of
his inducing her to become his wife, he came to the
desperate resolve to destroy her, and carried out
that intention in the manner alluded to. It appears
that some communication took place between Mr.
Baron Martin and the gaol authorities after the
sentence of death had been passed on the prisoner,
during which the learned judge stated that, if any
steps were taken to procure a commutation of the
capital punishment, and the Home Secretary
should think fit to save the life of the culprit,
he should not stand in the way of such a
course being taken. A copy of the deposi-
tions was sent to the Home Secretary, and on
Saturday, Mr. Palmer, the under-sheriff for the
county of Kent, went to the Home-office to
ascertain what decision had been come to, and he
was informed that, upon a careful review of all the
circumstances connected with the case, and the
facts contained in the depositions, the Secretary of
State for the Hume Department could not see any
ground for recommending the prisoner to the mercy
of the Crown, and that the law, therefore, must
take its course. A notification to that effect was
sent down to Maidstone on the same day, and it
was communicated to the prisoner, who received
the dreadful intelligence with the same calmness
that he has evinced ever since he has been in cus-
tody. The execution will take place on Thursday
next, at 12 o'clock.
