TO IMPROVE THE COMPLEXION.

AT this Season of the Year, when Eruptions,
Rashes, and Irritations of the Skin are so preva-
lent, Mrs. VINCENT'S COWLAND'S LOTION is
the only resource for the sale and certain cure of that dis-
agreeable sensation. This delightful Lotion acts by gently
and kindly opening the pores of the Skin, extracting and
dulcifying the Morbid Virus lurking in it, and restoring
it to health and clearness. Mrs. Vincent is continually re-
ceiving tributes of applause from the most exalted ranks
in Europe;•the most delicate lady or child may at all times
use this Lotion with the greatest safety, but its unexampled
reputation has induced many imitations. To prevent injury
and disappointment to the misled, see the name M. E.
Vincent upon all that is genuine.

THE BILIOUS PILLS,
• • pREPARED by F. NEWBERY and
SONS, are the discovery of a Physician of the
:3: first eminence at the present time. In as extensive prac-
trt lice for some years he has employed them in the most ob-
stinate Bilious Cases with unvarying success. They operate
principally as a deobstruent and purgative, they promote a
proper action of the liver in the secretion of bile, or cor-
rect it when in a vitiated state. Obstructions of the
stomach and bowels are gradually removed ; and by
giving tone to the biliary ducts and strength to the sys-
tem, they afford relief to those who suffer from nervous
attacks, sick head-ache, giddiness, indigestion, and gouty
affection.
The Bilious Pills have the name " F. Newbery" en-
graved in the Government stamp on each Box, and are
sold at No. 45, St. Paul's Church-yard ; and by J. San-
ger, 150, Oxford-street, London ; and all Venders in

" Non est vivere sed valere vita."—Martial.
" Life is only life when blest with health."
THE finest System of Ethics is to confine
within due bounds, anti thus to regulate the Patt-
sions ; unrestrained, and insubordinate, they impetuously
destroy those barriers which Religion and Morality have
trade sacred ; to curb but not annihilate them, appears the
lesson of prudence, best calculated to limit their efferves-
cence.

Every disorganization of the human frame requires
great medical knowledge to remedy, and the public wel-
fare is promoted when professional men (disregarding the
suggestions of the envious and interested) devote their
Studies to the treatment of those complaints generated by
imprudence, and the ebullition of the passions at an un-
guarded moment. " The strength of a nation consists in
the health of the people ;" but, it is melancholy to reflect
on the daily sacrifice to the ignorance of unfeeling empy-
ricism, and to counteract, as far as possible, its further
ravages, we offer to suffering humanity the result of our
own experience in the various diseases of Debility. The
unwary victim of solitary vice (early acquired at school,
before reason has asserted her right over the mind), will,
his powerless state, become susceptible
in contemplating
of enlivening sensations, in knowing that the most com-
plicated state of exhaustion may be roused into manly
energy. Intense study—immoderate anxiety long resi-
dence in tropical Climes, and many other causes, will fre-
quently derange the Nervous System ; in such cases we
can hold out an assurance of re-animation, by a treatment
which has long answered the sanguine hopes of Patients of
both sexes.

That bane to human happiness, SYPHYLIS can now
be treated fearlessly, the improved state of Medical Sci-
ence having divested its antidote of those distressing pro-
perties that so long rendered its exhibition uncertain and
harassing. Some peculiarities incidental to the softer
sex have not escaped our attention ; in which mildness,
combined with efficacy, has superseded the means usually
adopted. In fine, our system is unique, peculiarly ener-
getic, and eminently successful.
Educated in London, schooled in our professional at-
tainments by its splendid medical characters, and having
been able, personally, to compare with admiration the
British Surgical practice with the Continental, our pre-
tensions to superiority (in a branch we have selected) are
matured by experience, which is evinced by the daily ap-
plications we receive, even from distant countries.
Daily attendance is given for personal consultation : and
let•ers from the country are immediately answered ; these
must contain a remittance for Advice and Medicines,
Which can be forwarded to any part of the world, however
distant.

importance of endeavouring to ascertain the minute parC-
culars of every case, especially of the first.
Mr. ROBINSON called the attention of Government
to the effect this announcement would have on the com-
mercial relations of the country. He hoped such arrange_
nients would be made as would prevent any unnecessary
obstruction being thrown in the way of British commerce.
He thought it was highly important to advert for one
moment to the situation of the colonies. Vessels were now
being fitted out to go to those ports, and he was
nut aware that any thing hail been done in those
countries to guard against the infeciion. Unless Ministers,
therefore, sent over some information to those parts, they
might be much alarmed, and commerce might be pre-
vented. He thought it extremely advisable that
Government should do everything in their power to pre-
vent unnecessary alarm in foreign Governments, other-
wise when vessels arrived in these ports considerable diffi-
culty would attend them.
Mr. WARBURTON liopi:4 that Government would
consider their primary object to be to resist the spread of
the disease—in his view mercantile activity had
been t'ie cause of the spreading of the disease to
the alarming extent to which it had already arrived.
However inconvenient it might be to have mercantile in-
tercourse interrupted, he trusted that Government would
not flinch from doing so, where it seemed necessary for the
safety of the country. He trusted that publicity would be
given to every case that occurred, and of the characteristics
that attended it, as it was highly important for all medied
men to be made acquainted with every thing that relate-1
to this dreadful scourge.
Mr. HUME trusted that his Majesty's Ministers would
not follow the course recommended by the Hon. Member
for Bridport, of putting a stop to commercial intercourse, as
that would be the very means, in his opinion, best adapted
to cause the spread of the disease. He believed Go-
vernment would do well not to create alarm upon this
subject ; the-very idea of restraining commercial com-
munication was preposterous, as a very large portion
of the community of this country depended for
their daily bread on commerce—if that, therefore, was sus-
pended, it would be adding famine to the disease. He
had no hesitation in saying the first paper printed by the
Board of Health had spread terror throughout the country,
and bad been productive of the worst effects. He lamented
that in the collieries in the south of Scotland the disease
arose chiefly from the desperate situation in which the
unfortunate men working in these collieries were placed.
He thought that his Majesty's Government would do far
more to prevent the spreading of the disease by adding to
the comforts of the lower classes, than by any restrictions
upon commercial intercourse.
Mr. STRICKLAND considered that the disease would
be aggravated by any attempt to stop commercial inter-
course.
Sir H. HARDINGE said, though he could not concur
either with the Hon. Member for Middlesex or the Hon.
Member for Bridport, he conceived it would be expedient
to keep all our military force as much in barracks as pus.
sible. This was done at
,Vienna and Berlin, and at Ber-
lin only twelve soldiers died; and the number also at
Vienna was trifling, owing to strict discipline and confine-
ment to the barracks. Of course the military were bound
in duty to take their share in endeavouring to stop the cala-
mity; yet, at the same time, he thought his Majesty's Mi-
nisters could not too eirly adopt the course followed at
Berlin and Vienna. it was evidently dangerous to have
1,000 soldiers spread over Tothill-fields among such a pc-
pulation—dangerous not only to those soldiers themselves,
but the army at large, from the risk of communicating
the disease to other barracks. He hoped, therefore, his
Nlaje.ty's Government would take the proper precaution,
and as much as possible keep the military in barracks,
Mr. DIXON was against any plan of attempting to stop
the disease by cutting off communication. Though the
disease bad prevailed for sonic time at Kirkintilloch, and
the intercourse between that place and Glasgow was fre-
quent, yet not one case had occurred in the latter place.
Mr. BRISCOE said some of the parishes in London
were in such a state as to call for the immediate attention
of Government and the local authorities. In Bethnal-
green, for instance, there were 6,000 persons receiving
Parish relief; and in the workhouse there were 1,100,..with
only 370 beds. There were also 80 ca,ca of contagious
fever, which was daily increasing. He had ascertained
these facts from peraoaal inquiry yesterday afternoon, and
he earnestly recommended the subject to the attention of
his Majesty's Government.

_
In answer to an Hon, Member, the CHANCELLOR of
the EXCHEQUER would that evening lay on the table
documents respecting the cholera, the same with those
which had been presented in the other House. He also
gave:notice that it was his intention to move for additional
power to be given to the Pi ivy Council, for the purpose of
adopting and enforcing means to prevent the disease.
Mr. GOULBURN was of opinion that the Privy Coun-
cil had full powers at present for any purpose of that kind.
Mr. HUNT had been constantly calling the attention of
Government to the distress of the poorer classes, but
without effect. The Hun. Gentleman had spoken of the
distress in the workhouse of Bethnal-green, but he cotal
tell him that the whole parish was in a frightful state of
distress. He would again call the attention of the House,
which he had already done twice, to the ventilation of the
House. That ventilation came from an impure source.—
(A laugh.) It was not a subject, however, to be treated
lightly, and, while they were endeavouring to prevent con-
tagion in others, it was also their duty to attend to them-
selves. The most offensive smells at timas came from these
ventilators; and as you, Sir (addressing the Speaker),
have the ordering of these—(A laugh)--I hope that
something will be done to abate the nuisance. If the
contagion reaches the House there will be flying right and
left to get out of the way.

Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET was anxious to take
the present opportunity a putting a question to the Noble
Lord opposite, home the House went into a Committee
of Supply, in some measure connected with the subject
which had been just under discussion, in relation to the
pauperism of England. Within the last ten days reports
had gone abroad that Commissioners were about being
appointed to inquire into the state of the poor, and the
funds by which they were relieved. Whether the Finciple
of the appointment of the Commissioners was good or bad,
he would not now stop to discusa ; but he wished to know
whether they had been appointed, and whether the Noble
Lord had any objection to state the nature of the instruc-
tions given ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
the Commissioners about whom the Noble Lord had put
the question to him bad not yet received their appoint-
ment, nor were the instructions of Government drawn up ;
however, as soon as they were, there could be no objection
to their being furnished.

Sir J. GRAHAM then rose to move the order of the
thy for the House going into a Committee of Supply,

CURRENCY.
Mr. S. WORTLEY was very desirous of putting a
question to the Noble Lord opposite respecting the currency
question, He understood a report had been spread abroad,
to which many people attached a belief, that there was
some intention on the part of his ]Majesty's Ministers to
alter the law which passed in 1828, relating to the small
note restriction. It was of great importance that the public
should not be under a delusion—if delusion it were—upon
the subject ; and therefore he begged to know whether
there was any truth in the report that Government in-
tended to propose an alteration in the currency'?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was not
aware that any report, such as the Hon. Gentleman had
alluded to, bad obtained belief, and he begged to assure the
Hon. Gentleman that, with respect to the currency ques-
tion, Government had no intention whatever to propose
any alteration.—(Loud cheers.)

FINANCIAL YEAR,
In answer to a question put to Sir JAMES GRAHAM by
Mr. Goutentw, relative to bringing forward the Navy
Estimates at the present time,
Sir JAMES GRAHAM said, in the Committee, it was
his intention to state the reasons which had induced him
to do so.

Mr. GOULBURN imagined that Government had
some reasons which induced them to make the alterations
tiny had proposed with regard to the financial year. He
could not, however, perceive any great advantage in that
arrangement ; probably the Right Hon. Baronet or the
Noble Lord would be able to point it out.
Mr. ROBINSON then rose, and put a question to the
Noble Lord (the Chancellor of the Exchequer), but, from
the tone of voice in which the question and answer were
given, and from the noise which prevailed in the House,
neither the one nor the other was heard in the gallery.
Alter borne observations made by Sir GEORGE CLERK,
