HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly per
500 Nights' Lodgings, with Sups and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittanco, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been _ raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will lae required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor ramifies
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.:
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratef ally received by the DM D. GILBERT D.D, No. 22,

TEETH AND PALNLESS DENTISTRY.-
The fear of pain and dread of operation inherent to all
deter very many to whom ARTIFICIAL TENTH are of
vital importance from availing themselves of the services of
a dentist. In practice founded in 1830, and now extending
over greater tof the kingdom,
an experience unequalled
has been obtained, enabling us to offer even the most sensi-
tive sufierer a sp tem of dentistry perfect in its absolute
freedom from pain„ Vecialtte pertaining only to our prac-
flee, and for which her Majesty has granted her royal letters
patent. This sysi em embraces the con-interference with all
stumps, however decayCd, the supporting instead of extrac-
tion of loose teeth until they become firm and useful in mas-
tication, and the utter absence of all and every operation, so
that the most nervous person can be supplied without fear of
pain or inconvenience. These teeth are cheaper, more dur-
able, natural, and comtertable than any yet produced.
Consultation free. Teeth from 59. sets from 5 to 25 ge.,
warranted.

vindication—(cheers from below the gangway)—he
was not equally successful in vindicating the judg-
ment of the Government. I do not understand why,
at such a crisis, the Government have thought fit to
abandon at once their places and the Reform Bill.
(Oh, oh.) Well, I am stating my own opinion.
Probably I am not so ardent a Reformer as the hon.
gentleman who vociferates " Oh, oh ;" but as no
party in this house, and no individual in this house,
has at any time given a decided opposition to the
principle of Reform, I cannot understand why the
Government have abandoned their places and aban-
doned the bill. What L' the position of Parlia-
ment ? It is true many amendments were on the
paper ; but the Government could hardly expect to
carry so important a measure, laden as it was with
that dannzosa hxreditas of a principal supporter, the
right hon. member for Kilmarnock, withoutamend-
ments. I was rather surprised that the bill had
made so much progress. We actually got into com-
mittee, and we carried a most material reduction of
the county franchise to £l4. True, it was carried
by a small majority ; but yet in a House of Com-
mons, many members of which are hostile to any
reduction, that most important reduction of the
county franchise to £l4 was carried. Well, sir,
what happened next ? The Government were de-
feated, and I think upon a mere point of detail—
(hear, hear)—by 44 gentlemen who sit on this side
of the house, many of whom I know to be good
Reformers and attached friends of the Government.
(Mr. Craufurd—No.) Nol There are sone_gen-
tlemen, particularly Scotch gentlemen (laughter)—
who are so incredulous that they will believe nothing
but their own opinions. I know that many of those
44 were good supporters of the Government, who
would have supported them, if it had come to a vote
of confidence. Well, sir, on that the Chancellor of
the Exchequer resigned. I take upon myself to say
—not speaking on behalf of my hon. friend behind
me (Mr. Craufurd), nor any of his kidney, but speak-
ing as a moderate and a consistent Reformer, and no
direct issue having been taken as to the reduction of
franchise proposed by the bill—(hear)—that it is
very much to be regretted that her Majesty's Go-
vernment have thrown up their cards on what is
completely a point of detail. In my opinion they
were not justified in abandoning this bill or in aban-
doning office until they had tested the opinions of
this assembly as to the amount of the borough fran-
chise. (Hear, hear.) But they have not thought
proper to do so, and what is the position of affairs ?
Why, it is unexampled. Here we have a very
strong Liberal party—an overrated party as to its
majority, I have no doubt, but still with such a
majority that the Government might have had at
any time, if they had liked, a vote of confidence.
They rejected that vote of confidence almost with
contumely. A person at the head of the State,
whose name I cannot introduce into the debate, was
of opinion that no case was made out for a resigna-
tion, and that the defeat of the Government was
upon a mere point of detail ; but her Majesty's
Government persisted in throwing up their hands;
and what has become of us, the Liberal party ?
(Laughter.) Ido complain, as a humble member
and unit of that great Liberal party, that they have
never been called together at any stage of these
proceedings, that the circumstances. of the case have
never been explained to them, that the great Liberal
party have peen left in the lurch by their leaders,
and that we are about to be transported to the other
side of the house. (Laughter.) It is a very good
thing, probably, for the Liberal party ; I have no-
thing to say on that point ; but still it was perfectly
unnecessary, in my opinion. There are other con-
siderations besides that. In abandoning office as

they have done her Majesty's Government have
entirely wasted a valuable session of Parliament.
(Hear.) It is not only the Reform Bill that has
been left as a bone of contention for future sessions,
but there arc some most important measures that
have been entirely thrown over, and lire no chance
of being -disetissed for another year. Lot me ;re-
mind commercial men of the Bankruptcy Bill;
shall we hear anything more of that this session ?
The Laud Tenure Bill, which concentrated the
Irish party, what is to become of that ? Shall we
hear anything more of it this session? No, Sir; the
session has been entirely wasted, and the Liberal
party have been left entirely in the lurch. I do
regret that her Majesty's Government have thought
themselves justified in resigning in such a posture of
affairs at home and abroad. What is to follow ?
I presume that, having regard to those right hon.
gentlemen who are now conspicuous by their absence
(laughter—the principal members of Opposition
not being in their places)—the Government of Lord
Derby will follow. And what ought to be our course
upon this occasion ? The Government of Lord
Derby, if it is to be a Government of Lord Derby,
pure and adulterated, have done nothing to produce
this state of things. (Oh.) No !I am speaking of
their opposition to this measure, and I say that
theirs has not been an opposition like that which
was given to the bill of Lord Derby. (Hear, hear,
and oh !) The hon. gentleman who cries «oh !"
(Sir F. Goldsmid) was then in his long clothes—
(laughter)—he was not then in Parliament. The
Government that is to come, be it what it may, has
had honours thrust upon it. The members of that
Government could not have expected that in the
middle of June, with a foreign war raging, Minis-
ters would .throw up their offices on a mere question
of rating or rental. What, then, is the proper posi-
tion we are to assume on the other side of the house?
Speaking simply as an independent member, I think
that, as we have been left in the lurch, we are bound
to give any Government that comes in a fair trial
and a fair hearing. (Hear, hear.) I, for one, there-
fore, shall not enter into any factious opposition to
the incoming Government; but, as her Majesty's
Ministers have chosen to desert their posts, we are
bound to see what the next Government will do.
For my own part, I have no fear either for the pro-
gress of Liberal opinions or for the progress of Libe-
ral measures. Whatever Government sits upon
these benches, I feel certain that it cannot and will
not produce any but Liberal measures ; and to any
Reform Bill that is brought forward, if it be a wise
and well-considered and not a hasty measure, I shall
give that consideration, let it come from which side
of the house it may, which I think is due from an inde-
pendent member of Parliament. However I may
regret that the present Government has offered
us no explanation why for a period of eight days
the country and the house have been left without
an Administration—however much I may regret
their abandonment of office—l think the house is
bound, at all events, during this session, to enter
into no factious opposition to whatever Government
takes office. (Hear.) Sir, I beg to move the ad-
journment of the house.
Major KNOX seconded the motion, and in doing
so recalled the attention of the house to the subject
alluded to by the hon. member (Mr. B. Cochrane),
and he asked whether London was to be handed
over to mob law.? Though London was in a state
of siege last night, and at St. James's-place a posse
of police was stationed to keep the mob out, the
Home Secretary said he knew nothing about it. In
the evening papers it was stated that the chairman
of the meeting in Trafalgar square called upon the
mob to assemble in Whitehall-place outside the win-
dow at which Charles I. was beheaded—(laughter)
—.in order to carry res3lutions against this house,
and, in plain words, to make an attempt at intimi-
dation. Would the right hon. gentleman make
arrangements to prevent the law from being broken?
Sir G. GREY said he understood that the question
put to him referred to a public notice given of an
intended meeting in Whitehall-place, and his answer
was that he had seen no such notice. But he was
perfectly well aware that a meeting had been held
yesterday evening, and that after the meeting St.
James's-place was occupied by a body of police who
prevented the people from doing any mischief, if
such was their intention. That meeting was not
very numerously attended; about 1,500 persons
