RECENT TESTIMONIALS,

" I am highly satisfied with your Gold and Lacquer Detergents

I hope to recommend them to some of my friends, as they answer so
well, especially the Gold Detergent."—From the Right lion. C. D'Eyn -
court, M.P.
" We first tried the Gold Detergent on a costly looking-glass frame
that had been a few years gilt. It removed the whole of the fly spots,
the dust, and stains, and the frame has now the appearance and bril-
liancy of the day it left the workman's hands. Next on two very old
frames—from their colour we were almost in doubt whether they
were gilded or not. The Detergent soon convinced us of the fact, by
removing the accumulated stains and tarnish of many years ; these
frames have now the appearance of being nearly new."—Liverpool
Chronicle, Jan. 27, 1844.
"We have tried the Gold Detergent upon several old picture
frames, and must confess we were very agreeably surprised at the
result for it restores the splendour of gilding with very little trouble.
A single bottle is more than sufficient for all the picture and looking-
glass frames in a moderate-sized house."—Vide Nottingham Review,
April 5, 1844.

INSURRECTION AT AUX CAYES.

The following is an extract of a letter received at
Lloyd's from their agent at Aux Cayes, dated the 19th
April last : " Another revolutionary movement has
taken place in this quarter, and with such success that
this town is in the hands of the insurgents since the 4th
inst. After an action in the heart of the town—they
have marched their army, calle I L'Arme3 Souffrante to
Port au Prince, but there are forces to oppose them at
Aquin, headed by a firm adherent of the President. It is
yet hard to say which party will succeed, but the black
pipulation, who have undertaken this enterprise, appear
decided to govern the country themselves to the exclu-
sion of the coloured people. Should they not succeed
they will be apt on falling hack on this town, to commit
disorders."

STRAND THEATRE.

-----
Last night a new play, from Boz's popular work of
" Martin Chuzzlewit," was produced for the first time at
the Strand Theatre. The first scenes did not attract
much applause from the house but as the drama pro.
ceeded, a livelier spirit seemed to be infused into the
performers, which was greatly increased by the appro-
bation that now proceeded from all sides. The conclu-
sion of the first act was the seizure of the roaring lions
by the old Blue Dragon, which was well supported by
the acting of Messrs. Searle and Roberts, who main-
tained their characters with great spirit throughout the
piece. The first scene of the second act, also exhibiting
the death of Anthony Chuzzlewit, was well sustained by
Messrs. W. Searle and Attwood. Mrs. Gamp's tea
party also caused great amusement, especially where she
quarrels with her " blessed Betsy Prig." In fact the
whole performance was extremely well sustained.

GENERAL ANNUITY SOCIETY.-A dinner in aid of
the funds of this Society will take place on Wednesday
next, at the London Tavern. This Society embraces
mostimportant objects. It is formed for the purpose of
affording relief to decayed merchants, bankers, profes-
sional men, their widows, and clerks, and to single
females, daughters of persons belonging to such classes
of society. Various as the institutions of this metro-
polis are, there was not one which existed, until the
establishment of this Society, having for its object the
relief of these most deserving classes of persons. To
assist such, this Institution was established; and the
Directors think that its importance and claims upon
philanthropy are fully established. It is supported by
the leading characters of the commercial metropolis, and
a knowledge of its benefits can only be necessary to in-
sure. fait increased.support. and pacouragement:

jury returned a verdict of guilty, and the Court sentenced him
to eight years' hard labour, with exposure on the pillory.
A letter from Stockholm, June 28, states that the question
relative to the Swedish flag has been decided in the Swedish
and Norwegian Council of State. The two nations preserve
their respective colours, but in the Union flag the colours
will be blended.

There are, says a Frankfort journal, upon the German
railroads 296 locomotives, of which 194 were manufactured
in England. 57 in Germany, 16 in Belgium, and 29 in America.
A letter from Dusseldorf states that great commotion was
excited in that town on the 4th, by the suicide of M. Ling-
hardt, Procureur du Roi, aged 42. This gentleman was
equally uisnnguisnea Tor ma talents and amiable manners,
and the greatest surprise is expressed at such an event. It
is supposed that the circumstance of a disturbance having
taken place in the street, on June 6, in which the military
were called, and two men killed, preyed on his mind, and in-
duced him to blow out his brains with a pistol.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS, July 15.
Their Lordships assembled at Five o'clock.
The Earl of RODEN presented petitions from Caith-
ness and other places, in favour of the legalisation of
Presbyterian marriages in Ireland.
MR. MAZZINI.

The Earl of RADNOR moved that the petition, which
he presented on Friday last from Mr. Mazzini, be referred
to the Select Committee which had been appointed on
the subject of opening letters at the Post-office.
The Duke of WELLINGTON said that the Com-
mittee which had been appointed was to inquire into
the state of the law respecting opening letters by the
Secretary of State ; and he did not see, therefore, how
such an investigation could affect the character of Mr.
Mazzini, or how such a Committee could clear his cha-
racter, supposing it to hoe been attacked ? He .(the
Duke of Wellington), therefore, thought this motion of
the Noble Earl was premature.

The Earl of RADNOR thought if this were the case,
that the decision of the Committee ought not to be
biased by any statement which might be made with
respect to the character of Mr. Mazzini. As the Noble
Duke said the motion was premature, he (the Earl of
Radnor) would withdraw it for the present, and reserve
it for a future occasion.
The motion was then withdrawn.

Messengers from the Commons brought up several
Bills.

Several petitions were presented for and against the
Dissenters Chapels Bill.
Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from the
Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the borough of Sud-
bury, praying to be heard by counsel against the Sud-
bury Disfranchisement Bill.
The NOBLE and LEARNED LORD gave notice that he
should move the second reading of the Alien B.
to-night.

SURREY THEATRE.

Last night the performance commenced. with Bellini's
beautiful opera of La Sonnambula, supported by Miss
Romer, Miss Betts, Miss Pearson, together with Messrs.
Leffler, D. W. King (his first appearance in London),
and E. L. Hine. We believe, with the exception of Mr.
King, there is little of novelty in the cast, but this ex-
ception we are inclined to look upon as an addition likely
to prove of some value to the enterprising manager.
The opera was received throughout with applause. The
performance was concluded with (for the 13th time) the
new melo-dramatic and aquatic spectacle, entitled The
Mountain Cataract.

PARISH- CONSTABLES BILL.

On the motion that this Bill be read a second time,
Sir W. JOLLIFFE said he thought the Bill ought to

a superintending constable without the consent of the
various vestries.

After a few words from Mr. V. SMITH and Mr. M.
SUTTON, the Bill was read a second time, and ordered
to be committed to-morrew (this day).

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

DEVONPORT, JULY 13.—THE ST. ViNcENT, 120.—Sir David
Milne, the Port Admiral at Devonport, has struck his flag
on board the Sylph tender, and has hoisted it on board the
St. Vincent, 120, Captain Rowley, in Plymouth Sound. Or-
ders were issued on Saturday morning that the morning and
evening gun is to be fired from this ship. Thus our uniform
statement respecting the St. Vincent is verified, and those of
our contemporaries proved to be unfounded. The St.. Vin-
cent was never ordered on foreign service, nor was such an
order ever contemplated.
The Indus, 78, lately paid off at Devonport, will come out
of dock to-day. We mentioned a fortnight since that she
was to be fitted as an advanced ship. She is preferred to the
Malabar. She is a very fine ship, and her late officers and
crew give her an excellent character. It is said she stows
70 tuns of water more than the Albion, 90.
The Emerald tender, which arrived from Portsmouth on
the 11th, with the men belonging to the St. Vincent, who
were left behind when that ship sailed, returned to Ports-
mouth on the 12th, with supernumeraries for the Coiling-
wood.
A survey of seamen and marines takes place at the Royal
Naval Hospital, Stonehouse, this day.
DOCKYARD.—The following have been superannuated
during the past week ;—Richard Hunt and Francis Cann,
shipwrights, on 241. each ; George Frood, Stonehouse, la-
bourer, on 17/. ; and George Harrison, of a mooring lighter,
on 201. per annum.

JL DECLARATION OF THE: GUARDIANS OF BRENT,

DEVON.

We, the undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas Ro
bins, one of our parishioners, comenced taking " Ilalse's Scorbutic
Drops," he was literally covered with large running wounds (some
of them so large that a person mig 't have laid his fist in them); that
before he had finished the first bottle he ns,ticed an improvement,
and that by continuing them t•r some time, he got completely
restored to health, after everything else bad failed. He had tried
various sorts of medicines before taking " Halse's Scorbutic Drops,"
and had prescriptions from the most celebrated physicians in this
country, without deriving the least benefit. Halse's Scorbutic
Drops," have co pletely cured him, and he is new enabled to attend
to his lalmur as well as any vital in our parish. From tther cures
also made in this part. we strongly recommend " Halse's Scorbutic
U roes" to the notice of the put,lic.

(LEFT SPEAKING.)

DEATH OF LIEUT. EDWARD ROBERTS.—The ar-
rival of the Acadia brings the melancholy intelligence of the
death of Lieut. Edward Roberts, officer of her Majesty's
mails, in the steamer. He was attacked by a fit of apoplexy
previous to the arrival of the ship at Halifax, and his
recovery was looked upon as so doubtful that Capt. Jud-
kins was sworn in as mail agent at that place. Shortly after
his arrival at Reston he seemed to recover partially, but the dis-
ease afterwards took a more serious turn, and he died at the
Massachusetts General Hospital on the 27th June, aged 69,
Lieutenant Roberts had been in the British navy more than
half a century, and held a Lieutenant's commission since
1810. He had seen much hard service, and participated in
no less than thirty naval engagements. He went out as mail
agent in the Britannia on her first trip to the United States,
had been in constant service since, and had crossed the At-
lantic over forty times. He has left a wife in Liverpool, but
has no family. His remains were deposited in a vault under
Park-street Church, Boston.

VICTORIA THEATRE.

A dramatic version of Martin Chuzzlewit was pro-
duced at this theatre last evening with very great success.
The adapter has followed the novel very closely, and
the adaptation does great credit to his talents. The
scenes are, in fact, a series of tableaux from Phiz's illus
trations, and are admirably got up. The cast is excel•
lent. Miss Vincent as young Bailey, and Mr. J. Herbert
as Mrs. Sairey Gamp, were first-rate. The Jonas
Chuzzlewit of Mr. Osbaldiston, and the Tigg Montague
of Mr. James Vining, were also excellent; while Mr.
Dale, as the moral Pecksniff, was the very essence of
hypocrisy. The house was, as usual, crowded.

GENERAL ANNUITY SOCIETY.—A dinner in aid of
the funds of this Society will take place on Wednesday
next, at the London Tavern. This Society embraces
most important objects. It is formed for the purpose of
affording relief to decayed merchants, bankers, profes-
sional men, their widows, and clerks, and to single
females, daughters of persons belonging to such classes
of society. Various as the institutions of this metro-
polis are, there was not one which existed, until the
establishment of this Society, having for its object the
relief of these most deserving classes of persons. To
assist such, this Institution was established; and the
Directors think that its importance and claims upon
philanthropy are fully established. It is supported by
the leading characters of the commercial metropolis, and
a knowledge of its benefits can only be necessary to in-
sure for it increased support and encouragement.
REVIVAL OF REPEAL IN THE UNITED STATES.—
The imprisonment of O'Connell has revived the Repeal meet-
ings with us. Probably, since the last steamer brought the
news, about 5,000 dollars or more have been collected from
the Irish to help to pay the fine. In two nights, in New
York, about 1,500 dollars were collected and accounted for—
the amount unaccounted for uncertain. Yet Repeal agitation
in the United States cannot last--it is on its last legs. The
denunciations of the whole South by the O'Connell men, are
the cause of the decay.--New York Herald.
