THE NOVELTY most recently introduced by
MESSRS. NICOLL is called NICOLL'S PATENT EIDER
DOWN PALETOT, such novelty consisting in the adaptation of
Eider Down in the formation of NICOLL'S PALETOT, the original
elegance and utility of which is, however, faithfully preserved.
Eiders are found in great numbers in Iceland and the Fern
Islands, where their beautithl and delicate down is well known to be
proof against the most severe cold, and even the small quantity
which can be compressed and concealed between the two hands, wil:
serve in the formation of a Palet6t, which, while it has most extras
ordinary lightness, has, nevertheless, more warmth than the fines,
and thickest blanket, the great desideratum for a winter garment
being thus accomplished, namely, personal warmth without fatigue.
Public inspection is invited at MESSES. NICOLL'S wholesale and
retail warerooms,
111, 116, and 120, REGENT. STREET, and 22, CORNHILL,
London.

THE NICOLL PALETOT (Registered 6 and
1. 7 Viet., cap. 60 WAREROOMS, 114, 116, 120, RE3IDITT-
STREET. and 22, CORN HILL.
Many have assumed the use of the word PALETOT, but Messrs.
NICOLL are the sole Patentees of the design and material.
The Wholesale and Counting House Departments for the London
Branches in the Shipping and Woollen Trades are in CHANGE-
ALLEY, CORNHILL, and 120, REGENT-STREET.
The NICOLL is the distinguishing name given to a garment
secured by Royal Letters Patent from general imitation. It has all
tita advantages of Messrs. NICOLL'S orixinal invention, the RE-
GISTERED PALETOT of LLAMA CLOTH. The NICOLL PA-
LETOTS are charged One, Two, Three, and Three-and a-half
Guineas, according with the climate or purpose for which they may
be required.

FOOS AND DAMF AIR.
BARCLAY'S ASTHMATIC CANDY has, for
many years, been proved an effectual preservative from the
111 effects of the Fogs and Damp Air, which, in the Wiater Season,
are so prevalent -in this Climate. Its effects are to expel Wind, to
preserve the Stomach from the admission of Damps, and to relieve
those who suffer from Difficulty of Breathing. Prepared only by

TIIE PALACE OF WINTER
A FANCY FOR THE 1.1 ZOST.
My humble muse before your DOUCE. IX rings
All manner of imazinary things.
Her present subject is a well-timed. >t aeme,
Presented in the fashion of a dream..
While sitting in my study to comp( se
A splendid scene before my fancy rcce
'Twas Father Winter's Palace, built f ice,
And I'll deser'be it, for it looked S 6 t3lt 0•
Its portico, I.s walls. and pillars, too,.
Arose transparently to fancy's view;
Struck with the sight which thus my d.-eam supplied,
I toddled up the steps, and walked i pride ;
And oh, my heart (excuse the vulgar • phrase),
On what a splendid picture did I gar e
Chairs, sofas, tables, all were built if Ice,
And, as I said before, they looked so nfee.
The window-curtains hung in icy m tAwork,
And each pier-glass was framed wit' t Icy fret-work ;
The chandeliers and luttres, wrong] U, with pains,
Dropped in bright icicles, like diam rut chains.
The icy floor a snowy covering had,
Tile cushions ditto, and the s :fa-pa d.
It was a sight delightful to behold,
A sight superb—but oh, I felt so col 4 ;
For, as It happened, I forgot the cot t
Which Moses male me at their house of note.
This would have kept my form from.; feeling chilly;
I can't imagine how I was so silly.
'Tvrenld just have suited such a seer Le of ice,
And, like the palace, would have Ia at' -d so nice.
I'll say no more—the subject rightl y,closes
With such a well-earned complimei tt for Moses.

THE RATIONALE OF UNRE-

STRICTED TRADE.

TO THE ELECTORS AND NON-ELECTORS OF
THE CITY OF GLASGOW.
Gentlemen,-;--Among many other conflicting subjects,
the following will most probably engage the time arid
coniderstlon. of the scission f Parlia-aent which meets
on the 31st instant:-1- Free-trade and Protection; 2,
The Condition cf. heisted; 3. Colonial I.Vicy; 4. TAXll-
tior:and Expend:ture; 5. Electoral Reform.
I-sm of op:nion th -t the consideration of at leasolm,
f theabove qiiestione c annot and ought not to be procra—
tinate d; but I de not censider that the question of Free-
trade end Protection requires, as a leading parliarnentaoy
F 1.0 ject, any further docussion. The principle of this
question is, in-my opinion, irrevocably settled; and it is
only further net e ,sane to abolish every restriction which
raay eat remain on trade and mervf.ctures, in order to
complete a system of uninterrupted intercourse of ships
and ofit;esbetween all the nations of the
world.
As far, however, as visible circumstances enable we
to form an Opinion, the question which lea. t requires
the 'meeting of Parliament fn. the dispatch of business
will constitute the leading obstruction to the progress of
all useful legislation. We are threatened with an ex-
traordinary combination of power, eloquence, and wis-
dom, tho purposes of which coalition are no less than to-
obtain a dissolution of the House of Commoni, a new
generel aleetion, a Protectionist majority; consequently,
a piteous resigeation or ignominious dismissal cf her
Majesty', present advisers, the discomfiture of all Free-
traders, from Lord John Russell and Sir Robert Peel
down to the veriest Corn-law Rhymer; then an imme-
diate restitution t f corn-dtitioa and other taxes on the
essential fond of man, and a triumphant return to the
good old times of (hats food —which means scarce food;
fir nothing has ever been,' nor can ever be, dear that is
plentiful. Alt` eugh their efforts may greatly inte-rupt
the real hesitates of Parliament, the - country may be
coefiJesely asiti2d that there h not the lcaet prospect
of iseteuting sr_ e a Protectionist millenium.
I am every succeeding year more convinced, by addi-
tional Lids, of the beneficial effect; of our comrcercial
legislation during the last ten years. I am unable to
recant any one opinion which I have given on the sub-
ject of unrestricted trade and on monopoly since 1840;
nor am I prepared to correct any statement which I de-
livered he fore the Committee of the House of Com-
mons in 1840, further than as to say haviug been at that
time rather behind than ahead of the age. I then pro-
posed (not as sound in principle—for I guarded myself—
but as, at that time, a desirable settlement of two duties),
in the pro forma tariff ahich 1 presented to the Com-
mittee, a duty of Bs. per quarter on wheat, and a diffe-
rential—that is to say, a Protectionist's—duty of 12s.
per cwt. more on foreign than on colonial sugar.
Happily for the country, .I vi a ; not gratlfiel in seeing
that unsound expedient cf mine realised. It was pro
posed by the Government, to which I considered myself
by principle attached; but -they were dt feated fiesta.
Protectionists, whether of corn, or of saccharine mounts
who at that time considered themselves powerful, these-
fore wise in their generations. It followed taat the'
Melbourne Government appealed to the country, as the
Protectionists hope Lord John Russell's; will a:so, have
soon to do. The Melbourne Ministry then found itself
in a minority—as the Protectionists believe Lord John
if he sent the present Members of
tßhuescseolmrsmsso'onusid wtontohe,
their constituents. Lord Melbourne's
Ministry, therefore, resigned. A supposed Protectionist
Government succeeded. That Government, however,
abolished the corn-laws, and carried into effect more
than all I ventured to propose in my pro.forma tariff of
1840 he 12s. differential sugar duty excepted. On an
Irish tpiestior, Sir R. Peel's Government left office in
1846. The present Government then came into power.
In 1847 Lord John Russell, who declared " that pro-
tection was the bane of industry," with this motto as a
I- aling policy, de nanded the verdict of the country
at a genesis! election. A new Parliament was re-
turned. You did me the hononr to send me to the
!louse of Commons, to represent the largest city, after
the metropolis, in the British empire; to represent a great
ship-building and ship-owning port; a city with interests
of enormous amount, and if every mercantile and ma-
nufacturing verb ty, veetol in the North American, the
West and East Indian Colonies, and involved in its vast
navigation and commerce. Well, then; what has hap-
pered ? Lord John Russell's Government and this
Parliament have abolished all protective duties on sugar,
have abolishel all duties on copper o'o3, and on the
other few remaintng raw materials; and more astounding
than all, they have abolished the venerable navigation-
laws, by which " Britannia bee for ages ruled the
waves." I, as your Represenaetive, and my colleague
also, gave the Government our earnest support in
carrying those ice satires ; and I shall also cot Cnue
ti give them my support whenever they propose any
good measures.. Yet 7 o have received no rebuts a from
the city of Glasgow.
We have certainly much to reform; but I am certain
that an early general election would do little to advance
civiliaition or national freedom; white I am certain that
it ...utaid produce a mischievous agitation, clistrtect and

disturbing the industry of the country, and in diminish-
ing' the remunerative employment of the people-
In all times t f anarchy it is the labouring and trading
classes who stiffer the most. There is no meat or driels
earned, no .domestic happiness secured, in riots or in
revolutions. I consider that them is much that we ere
bound to endeavour to do with regard to ameliorating
the condition of several millions of the people in the
:three kingdoms, who are still under-fed, insufficiently
clothed, and miserably lodge]; but I can bring no power
of calculation, no exertion of reason, to my aid, which
will justify roe in arriving at the Protectionist conclu-
sion that those millions will be more fully f.d,
more warmly clad, and more comfortably lodged, by
diminishing the quantity
of food; therefore making it
scarce, and therefore des-- All my elemeets cf calcu-
lation, and my reasoning faculties, lead mo into a con-
clusion altogether different.
If I inquire what is the state of the country after a
trial of six years of not yet complete, though compara-
tive free trade, I find that we have overcome with ex-
traordivary success the calamities of two deficient har-
vests in the United Kingdom, and of an unparalleled
famine caused by the potato-rot in Ireland; that we have
the great mercantile houses that
triumphed over a commercial crisis, occasioned, with

most burdensome taxation imposed on any Fe Tie in the
world; that we have proudly maintained, unimpaired,
our public me lit; that while ether nations have been
and 'revolution, and their inhabi-
dtainsttusribnedeobnyseanarchyquence involved in suffering and loss, we
have enjoyed tranquillity in our homes, in our streets,
iin our fields; and we have prc-
,n e r
all the Cations f the world. I ovuerd highways,peace with
d
em-
phatically dwell on our having enjoyed tranquil security
within our own borders, and haying maintained peace
with ail foreign nations. Let us not estimate the la tof
those blessings lightly,
for it is indelibly stamped on the
rational exchequer that the campaign of Waterloo added
to the fended debt
of the nation about ono bundled
mil ions, and that to Pay the interest of that liability the
taxpayers of England and of Scotland have contributed
ever since, and must continuo to do so as long as British
credit and honour
shall be maintained (and I hope
neither will ever be stained), rather more than three
millions a year —a sum which
would enable the present
Chancellor of the Exchequer (who I am confident would
gladly do so if in his power) to abolish the odious win-
doss - ax and to reduce the enormous duty of 2'. 21 per
lb. on tea to Is. per lb.
1, therefore, both on the grounds of humanity, civili-
zation, and economy, advocate peace, though I believe
thst there are cases in which war may be unavoidable.
The ordeal of difficulties and calamities through which
we have struggled,
we have braved and triumphed over
with moral, physical, and political honour as a nation,
notwithstanding the so-called free-trade years of 1846,
1847, 1848, and the still more free-trade year cf 1849.
That there are unfortunately, as I have already stated,
some millions of our people, especially in Ireland and
in the rural districts c f England, amidst which there
are no important trading or manufacturing towns, who
are seill under-fad, ill-clothed and sheltered, is a de-
tdorable fact. At the same time our people general!)
are as well employed, and I believe as well paid, and our
industry and trade as thriving, as et, ny forme: period.
With respect to the agitation which has been excited
by the Protectionists, I am willing tr admit that the
landlords, and even farmers, believe that the:r sufferings,
ell or imaginary. and their inconveniences and embar-
rassments, are owing to the causes which they express
at their numerous meetings. I make very charitable
allowances for the fallacies which they cherish,
respect those Lords and Gentlemen ; but I cannot help
saying that they are sliding deep in the mire ef delu-
sion—that their perceptions are dimmed in the mists of
fallacies,
Now, I believe that the great majority of the delibe-
rate thinkers of the people of these kingdoms aro fully
alp rieapdafrseodfto
the Protectionists, with all the assertions and Jere-
ctionists, and to dissipate tacit whole
Illiad of Woes."
Wo can undertake to prove that there have been
lower prices of corn and more severe periods of agri-
cultural distress while prohibitive and protective corn

as the Almighty wisdom has provided that the calami-

manufactures, like all others, free to competition. But,
instead of nature's laws, the Government and the law-
