ripHE FLUTE.—Messh. RUDALL and ROSE
L beg to announce that they are now manufacturing a Patented
Flute of the finest tone and most correct intonation, upon the principle
of equally distributed and freely-vented holes, with the fingering
exactly like the old eight-keyed Flute. Also another Flute, with the
same perfection of tone and tune, the fingering' of which differS
slightly from the precedimr, but affords extraordinary facilities for
rapid and easy execution. These two instruments are the contriv-
ance of the eminent Flute-player, Mr. Carte, who has entered into
partnership with Messrs. Radall and Rose. .They are made of wood,
silver, or other metals, and have also the advantage of the splendid
improvements lately originated by Boehm of Munich, the patent-
right of which for this country has beep purchased by Rudall and
Rese. Messrs. Rudall and Rose continue to manufacture Flutes, ac-
c..,rding to Boehm's method of fingering, and' the ordinary eight-
keyed Flutes, which they have brought to great perfection. These
instruments may be seen at the Manufactory, 33, Southampton-
street, Strand, London.

trial.

Amelia Gill alias Shield, a young woman of lady-
like appearance and deportment, who was blind in
one eye, and was stated to be the daughter of a gen-
tleman holding a situation in a Government dace,
was placed at the bar before Mr. Arnold, upon a
charge of felony, under the following rather peculiar
circumstances : _

........................_
It appeared from. the statements of Sergeant Har-
vey, of the G division, and other witnesses, that on
the preceding afternoon the prisoner called at the
shop of Messrs. Toms and Joseph, silversmiths and
jewellers, in Ludgate-hill, and selected various costly
articles of plate, to the aggregate value of nearly
2001., which she requested them to for mard to her
residence, at 56, Farringdon-street, and they would
be paid for on delivery. Some misgivings having
been entertained respecting her from the suspicious
manner in which she conducted herself, one of the
shopmen was directed to watch her closely as soon as
she left the shop, and he accordingly followed her
about for some hours, during which period she entered
several other shops, one of which was that of a hoot-
maker named Dodson, in Cbiswell-street, Fins-
bury-square, on leaving which she stealthily pulled
out a pair of boots from the inside of her dress,
which she hastily wrapped in a handkerchief and
secreted them underneath her shawl. She next en-
tered the shop of a pawnbroker in the City-road, at
which the shopman ascertained upon inquiry that she
had endeavoured to dispose of a gold ring, and sus-
pecting that the article had been stolen from his mas-
ter's warehouse, he again pursued the prisoner and
gave her into the custody of a policeman, who took
the pair of boots from beneath her shawl, but the ring
she had attempted to pledge was not found in her pos-
session, and it was supposed that she had contrived to
get rid of it on her way to the station-house.
Sergeant Harvey stated that he had called at both
the addresses given by the prisoner, the first of which
was a respectable public-house in Farringdon-street,
where nothing whatever was known respecting her;
and that the premises in Wood-street were is the
occupation of a wholesale manufacturing firm, who
had been for some time past pestered with repeated
inquiries for " Miss Gill," who was, of course, an en-
tire stranger to them.
Mr. Vann, who appeared on behalf of the nrisoner,
expressed his intention to reserve the defence, and

share in the national grant.
The Earl of HARROWBY presented several petitions
praying for it repeal of the Sale of Beer Act.
The Bishop of LONDON presented a petition from
tbe Tower Hamlets in favour of the Extramural Inter-
ments Bill. He took that opportunity of returning his
thanks to' the Government for having embodied the re-
commendations of the Sanitary Commissioners on extra-

ing of some such Bill was absolutely necessary for the
health of the metropolis. The Bill had been drawn up
in a very masterly manner, and he hoped the Govern-
ment would firmly resist any attempt to alter the provi-
sions of that Bill. _ _ _

BEAUTIFUL TEETH.
ROWLANDS' ODONTO, or PEARL
DENTIFRICE.
A WHITE POWDER, compounded of the choicest and most re-
cherche ingredients of the Oriental herbal, of inestimable value in
preserving and beautifying the Teeth, strengthening the Gums, and is
giving sweetness and perfume to the Breath. It extirpates all tartar-
ous adhesions to the teeth, and ensures a pearl-like whiteness to
the enanielled surface. Its anti-septic and anti-scorbutic properties
exercise a highly beneficial and salutary influence: they arrest the
further prsgress of decay of the Teeth, induce a healthy action of
the Gums, and cause them to assume the brightness and colour indi-
cative of perfect soundness ; while, by confirming their adhesion to
the Teeth, they give unlimited enjoyment and fresh zest to appetite,
by perpetuating effective and complete mastication.
The Proprietors of this Dentifrice pledge themselves that its effi-
cacy its preserving and embellishing the TEETH, far surpasses any-
...king of the kind ever yet offered to the public, and has, in conse-
quence, obtained the patronage of Royalty and the Aristocracy
throughout Europe.—Price 2S. 9d. per hex.
CAUTION.—To protect the public from fraud, the Hon. Commis-
sioners have directed the Proprietors' name and address thus,
•• A. ROWLAND and SON, 20, Hatton-garden," to be engraved on
the Government stamp, which is affixed on each box.
Sold by the Proprietors, and by Chemists and Perfumers.

GERMANY.

Committees of tie two Chambers of the German
Parliament of Erfurt met on the 23d, to arrange the
dissension which had arisen between the Chambers
with respect to the vote on the budget—the People's
Chamber, it will be remembered, having inserted
clauses in the constitution reserving that right en-
tirely to itself. The Committees decided that the
budget when voted by the People's Chamber should
be transmitted to the Chamber of States, which
should have the power to make observations on and
modifications of it, but not to change the total amount.
It was also decided that, in the event of the two
Chambers not being able to agree on the same vote,
the vote of the Poeple's Chamber should prevail.
The Vienna Gazette announces officially the re-
sumption of diplomatic relations between Austria and
the Porte. It then gives a summary of the negotia-
tions on the question of the refugees. -In demand-
ing that Kossuth and his fellows should be given
up, Austria, says the Gazette, relied on the treaty
of Belgrade, but the Sultan having addressed
representations to the Emperors of Austria and
Russia, it was agreed, in conformity with the Sul-
tan's offers, that the refugees should be removed to a
part of Turkey, in which they could undertake
nothing either against Austria or Russia. Then
arose the question, says the Gazette, as to the dura-
tion of the detention. Austria proposed five years ;
this was not accepted ; whereupon Austria declared
that it would not admit any limitation as to time, but
would interpret the treaties rigorously and literally.
This declaration, the Gazette adds, drew from the
Porte a note, " written in a 4pkrit satisfactory to the
Imperial Government."
