scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
nals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will bo found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or ally painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth i hat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

LAMBER,T'S AS'r II ATIC BALSAM.--AN
EFFECT UAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the heal, truly effi,lacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or oven lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
King William-street, Charing-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 130., and three quantities in one,
2s. 9d. each. Be particular, and ask for Lambert's Asth-
matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the

dity. By such a removal ho did not think that anything
beneficial would accrue. It wouldnot be the right use of the
moral power entrusted to the University. Tho religious
teaching might be very small, and some persons car-
ried it farther and said that it was only a
sceptical teaching. He denied in the first instance
the fact, but even if it were so it was no argument why
the whole machinery should b 3 destroyed because
of this scepticism. When the sa, went down
the great. landmarks would reappear, and so it
would be when sceptici.srn • . passel away. Ihe ques-
tion bad reached this pass, it w,ts w:tether you in-
tended to remove all religious tests whatever; but for this
ho contended that the time had not yet arrived.
The Duke of DEVONSHIRE sa d he would make a
few remarks Lpon what was the Wate of the feeling of
the University of Cambridge on the subject. lii con-
sidered that there was a gr:►dually growing
feeling that these tests should be abolished. The
petition was signed by almost all the dis:ing ish ud boly
of the members of the University.

Bishop of LoNi,ox, the discus ion terininated.
STATE OF PUBLI J BUSINESS.

Lnrd MALMESBURY having moved the adjournment
of the house till the Bth of June,
Lord RUSSELL rose to call attention to the state of
public affairs, and, after reciting the events which fol-
lowed upon the vote of the House of Commons respecting
the Irish Church, declared it was extraordinary and un-
precedented that a Minister, being in a minority in the
House of Commons, should remain in power for six months
after advising the Crown to dissolve Parliament. He
admitted that the course pursued was convenient to the
Government and to the members of the House of Com-
mons, but ho imputed to the Government a desire to
protract the Reform discussions, which ha I needlessly
prolonged the present session. He sought from the
Government an assurance that measures would be
taken to expedite the Registration, and urged more rapid
progress with the Irish and Scotch Reform Bills and with
the Boundary Bill. It was also desirable, he urged, that
the Government should, on its appeal to the country, de-
c'are what were the principles upon which it relied for
public approval, specially referring to the questions of
education and the state of Ireland, upon which no definite
policy has as yet been propounded. Quoting the Hyde
torder, Lordsadmitted

as a constitutional principle that it was wrong to hold
office without possessing the confidence of the House of
o Government
t
Commons.

Lord MALMESBURY admitted the constitutional prin-
ciple, but denied that it was proved the present Govern-
ment did nut possess the confidence of the House of Com-
mons merely because it was not supported upon one ques-
tion by a majority. The test of a motion of want of con-
fidence had not been applied, and therefore it was reason-
able to assume that for the conduct of the general business
of the country the Government did possess the confidence
of Parliament. He attributed the backward condition of
Parliamentary business to the unnecessary introduction of
the question of the Irish Church, to the destruction of
which he declared himself a determined opponent, and
concluded by stating that the Government were as anxious
for a dissolution as any of their opponents could be.
The house then adjourned until Monday, June 8.

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to
establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor,
without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is
wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions

addition to this, the average number of attendance of the
destiwte sick has for a considerable period averaged be-
tween'3,ooo and 4,000 weekly.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
shortly before four o'clock.
• ROYAL COMMISSION.
The Royal consent was given by commission to a num-
ber of public and private bills. The members of the Royal
commission were the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of °ado-
gan, and the Earl of Devon. The business of the house
was postponed until 5 o'clock.
PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The following bills were read a third time :—Norwich
Union Life Insurance, Cork Gas, Cork Improvement,
Haverfordwest Borough Bill, Midland Railway,
Merthyr
Stipendiary Magistrates Bill.
heCha rman of Committees moved that the time for
depositing petitions to bo heard against private bills;
which would otherwise expire during the adjournment of
the house, be extended to Monday next.
RELIGIOUS TESTS.
The Earl of KIMBERLEY presented petitions from the
Universities of Oxford and Cambridge against the impo-
sition of religious tests in those Universities. A groat
many of the colleges had subscribed to this petition.
There were only six colleges where there was a majority
against it. In some it was almost unanimous, in others
government of the col-
there was a majority of two-thirds. It was considered
a great hardship that in the Universities no
person could become one of the
leges unless he was a meeker of the Church of England.
He could understand such a regulation if members of other
denominations were excluded altogether, but it appeared
very arbitrary when they formed a portiom of the consti-
cuent body. He had brought forward last session a bill,
hwehicshuggheostowdasths:t the rrYtosaywas rejected, in which

while he was a member of the great College of Christ-
church, all they had to do was to get up a short lesson in
the Greek Testament, and learn by heart the 39 Articles,
and then they were left to themselves.
Lord HOUGHTON said he hoped that the business of
the Session would not prevent a bill which was already
before the other house being brought before them before
long. .
The Earl of CARNARVON -said that since he sat in
their lordships' house three distinct phases had been in-
troduced as to this question of University tests. He con -
sidered that it was an attempt to lower the Government
standard of the universities, but never to effect that to
the utmost extent. It was an attempt to hand young men
over at the ago of 17, 18, and 19 to a system
where no religious securities would surround them.
It was much the same if you removed the educational
otoritios, and to that V_Tory no would object o 4 ithar.

M!•. COWPER differed from the hou. and learned gen-
tleman. Hs thought the proposed sito was the most

Sir G. BO '?ER was in fav mr of the new courts being
censtractel on the Thames E nhankin mi., an I he also felt
c wtaiu that if the present site was reset I that the Govern-
:neat w )nl,l realise mere money than they gave for it.

Mr. W. E. FORSTER, asked Mr. Disraeli what stops he
meant to take for expediting the dissolution of Parliament
on the new constituency early in the autumn, and he
pointed out various abbreviations of the processes of re-
gistration by which the now Parliament could be brought
together by the 12th of November.
Mr. HIBBERT held that without disturbing the present
arrangements a general election could be got over by the
middle of Decea..ber, so that candidates might eat their
Chastmas dinners in peace, and the new Parliament
might be called together. in January.
Lord ELCHO maintained that the question affected
others besides the ocenonti of the two front benches, and
protested against the holidays of private members being
taken np in electioneering unless a great public necessity
could be shown. There was no adequate justification for
straining the ordinary machinery of registration merely to
take a general election a month earlier, for though the
Government was in a minority on the Irish Church, on
the subject of Reform, both this year and last year, it had
commanded decided majorities. On the contrary, the
public interest required that the election should not be
precipitate.
Mr. CLAY urged that the house ought to press for a
dissolution at the earliest mommt, in order to justify its
long toleration of a Ministry in an unconstitutional posi-
tion.

Mr. M. GIBSON maintained that all contested business
should be dropped, instancing the Electric Telegraphs,
Foreign Cattle Importation, and the Corrupt Practices
Bills; but Sir R. KNIGHTLEY insisted that this Parliament
was pledged to go on with the Corrupt Practices Bill.
After some observations from Mr. OTWAY, who was for
an early dissolution, and from Mr. WHILLEy, who thought
that the country should have ample time to apprehend the
great question at issue,
Mr. DISRAELI, replying first to Mr. MILNER GIBSON,
reminded him that he had already stated that the labours
of the ssssioa should be confined to necessary business,
meaning thereby the Supplementary Reform Bills. The
Election Petitions and Corrupt Practices Bill he should
give up with a pang, and if there ware time he should de-
sire to go on with it. The other bills mentioned were in
the hands of the house, though there ware particular rea-
sons why they had not been formally withdrawn. To Mr.
Forster's question ho was not in a position to give a more
precise answer than that which he had given two days ago,
and it was a subject on which it was useless to speak ex-
cept with the greatest precision. The subject had been for
some time under the consideration of the Government,
and though there had been several disturbing elements—
such as the delay in passing the Boundaries Bill, and in
the necessity of settling the Scotch and Irish boundaries—
it was hoped they would be overcome. But in preparing
any proposition for the consideration of the house it was
most important that no suspicion should be suggested to
the minds of the new electors that an attempt was being
made to neutralise their privileges by hurrying and
hustling on a general election. The result of this pre-
cipitancy would be the return of a Parliament in the
election of which the great body of the people would
think it had had no share.

Mr. GLADSTONE, referring with much severity to
Lord Elcho's speech, rejoined that this was not a question
to be settled by its effect on " private membeis' holydays,"
, and that the "situation," as described by the Premier him-
-1
sthel,f.,:lled for the earliest possible dissolution. Thera
were difficulties arising from the extreme inexpediency,
under the circumstances, of employing the machinery of
d constipuencies; but though nearly a month ago
Mr. Disraeli had confidently stated that they could be sur-
mounted, his tone was now chant; .d. He had nothing
but a vague hope to hold out, and could not even promise
when he would satisfy the house. Mr. Gladstone, there-
fore, impressed on him the grave necessity of bringing the
matter to an issue, and aided that if the Government were
not ready after the recess to declare their intentions,
it would be the duty of independent members to take it
up.
Mr. PAULL animadverted on what he hell to bo the
angry and dictatorial style of Mr. Gladstone's speech, and
generally on the violent and unrestrained tone of recent
debates, instancing particularlyMrßouverie's gross attack
on the Government a week ago, and the "lie direct"
given by Mr. Bright to Mr. Liddell on Thursday. Those
who had contributed most to the delays of the session had
the least right to call for the withdrawal of important
measures, and of all the Bills before the House Mr. Glad-
stone's Suspensory Bill was the least necessary. Though
personally in favour of a dissolution as soon as the busi-
ness of the Session could be got through, time ought to be
given to the country to understand what they had to de-
cide upon. _ _

After some remarks from Mr. COGAN,
Mr. HARDY pointed out that until the Boundary Bill
had been pushed forward it would be impossible to decide
what precise measure would ba necessary. He denied
emphatically that the Government had changed its tone.
Those who were skilled in the subject had their attention
fixed upon it, and, if au opportunity were given, the Go-
vernment would do what they could to hasten a dis-

solution.
Mr. CARD WELL expressed himself quite satisfied with
this assurance, and here the subject ended.
Before going into Supply,
- Mr. GREENE put a question to ths Government as to
their intention of granting a Royal Commission on coal
mine accidents; on which Mr. Ayrton took the opportu-
nity of vindicating the efforts of Parliament to prevent
these accidents; and Lord Elcho remarked that what the
miners desired was, not further inquiry, but immediate
practical action. Mr. Newdegate and Mr. 'Whalley also
made soma observations, and
Mr. HARDY replied that the Government, but for the
disorganisation of the session, would have attempted to
deal with the question.
Mr. D. GRIFFITH, in moving to rescind the rule of
debate which forbids allusion to debates of the other
houss, referred to recent infractions of it in language
which Mr. Gladstone applied to himself, and which drew
from him an explanation on the subject. Mr. Disraeli

defended the rule, and the motion was withdrawn.
Mr. WHALLEY made a long speech on the recent riots
at Ashton and other places in Lancashire, blaming the
Government and the local authorities for not affording
protection to Protestant lecturers, and urging the neces-
sity of an inquiry into the origin of these riots.
Mr. HARDY rebuked Mr. Whalley for raising these
irritating discussions, and intimated that the Government
would make no inquiry except that which would result
from the impending trials.
Mr. BAZfiEY exhorted Mr. Whalley to use his influ-
ence to withdraw Mr. Murphy from the Northern towns,
where he was creating a feeling dangerous to life and
property.
SirC.O'LOGIILEN in moving for a copy of the Declara-
tion against Transubstantiation, entered into a long, and,
as the Speaker pronounced it, a disorderly explanation of
his motives in placing on the paper the notice of motion
which had attracted so much attention, to relieve the
Sovereign of the necessity for taking that declaration. He
denied that Mr. Gladstone was cognizant of his notice,
that it made any alteration in the Coronation Oath, or that
it affected any of the securities for the Protestantism of the
Crown.
Mr. NE WDEGATE expressed his unaltered conviction
that this was an attempt to tamper with a portion of the
Act of Settlement.
The motion was not pressed, and after Lord Mayo had
fixed the committee on the Irish Reform Bill for Monday
fortnight the house went into Committee of Supply, and
the votes in Class 111. of the Civil Service Estimates
(Judicial Expenses) were completed.
Some other business was disposed of, and the house ad-
journed at a quarter to 1 o'clock.

The screw steam gun-vessel Assurance, 4, Com-
nvulder Jobn B. Scott, from the West Coast of Africa,
arrived in Plymouth Sound on Tuesday morning, and
brings news that on Friday, the 16th of May, there ar-
rived at Fayal au American ship with emigrants from
Liverpool, bound, it is supposed, to New York. Sho had
run down by night the bark Joseph Hume, Captain Morris,
from St. Vincent for London. Her helmsman got on
board the emigrant ship. Cries of assistance proceeded
from the Joseph Hume, the crew of which wished the
American to lay by all night ; this was done, but in the
morning nothing could be seen.
