OPINIONS OF THE NUNS.

" We regard the work before us, the ' silent Friend,' as a work
embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints
hitherto little understood, and passed over by a ma!ority of the me-
dical profession, for what reasen we are at a loss to know. We must
however confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable
impression on eur minds, that wo not only recommend, but cordially
wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffering from
indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained In its pages."—Age and
Argus.
The authors of the Silent Friend' seem to be thoroughly con-
versant with the treatment of a class of complaints, which are. AV
fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in
which this book Is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to those
who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to
recommend to it a careful perusal."—Ern.

THE SPORTING MAGAZINE.

The principal engraving for this month represents
that anxious and exciting moment, the " Starting
for the Derby." The impatient spectators are grouped
around, while the jockeys are endeavouring to form
their horses in a line—no easy task, as may be seen
by the eager, restless movements of the excited ani-
mals. They understand, as well as their riders, the
object of the race, but they cannot see the necessity of
" starting fair," and thus, like many of their betters,
they retard, by their over-impatience, the moment
they desire. It is a hard matter to win a race, but it
is a yet harder task
" To curb the fiery steed
In emulation's eager speed."
The literary department ia, as usual, confined to sport-
ing pursuits. "Le Chasseur au Chien d'Arret," is
both instructive and amusing; it consists of some prac-
tical advice given to the young sportsman on the
field of action, delivered in a quaint and humorous
style. " One Cheer more for the- Game-laws," is, of
cou?se, an attempt to excuse, or at least extenuate, the
sever} r?gulltions for preserving game. There are
some useful remarks " On the Effects of Weight on
flore:." by Harry Ilitover ; anecdotes of foreign
larids, and the usual routine of " Sporting Intelli

The UIYDER.SFIERIFF said, the balance of the account was strong
pima facie evidence against the plaintiff, but admitted of explana-
tion ; the question was, whether that given by the plaintiff, that
there was extra work, had been made out ; the set-off of the
1001. had net been proved.
The jury gave a verdict for the amount claimed.

TILE NEW SPORTING MAGAZINE.

The engravings for this month consist of a spirited'
sketch of " Salmon Fishing in the Highlands " and
"Dead Beat," an illustration of one of the most un-
lucky accidents that can befal the hunter. The noble
horse, having strained every nerve to :he uttermost,
lies still and lifeless on the ground, while his unfor-
tunate master stands helpless by his side. To judged
from the expression of his face, the sufferings of his
hire do not excite much sympathy; instead of ex-
claiming with Fitz-James—
" We worth the chase, wo:wcrth the day,
That cost thy life, my gallant crrey,"
he seems disappointed at being 'left behind, and
t-uzzied how to act. The literary department is full
of variety. T::ere is an interesting account of otters
and otter- hounds, some am tp ing anecdotes of elephant-
hunts, and numerous articles on fishing, yachting,
poaching—in short, on every subject likely to in-
terest or instruct the sportsman.

SCHOOLMASTERS IN SCOTLAND.

Mr. lIUME also presented a petition from the Pres-
bytery of Forfar, praying the House to take the case
of the schoolmasters in Scotland into consideration, with
a view to the amelioration of their condition, and an in-
creasein their allowance.

Mr. IIEATIICOTE presented a petition signed by

of Rutland, against the Parochial Settlement Bill.

persons connected with the iron trade, to the contrary
tffect.

CORN-LAW S.
Mr. VILLIERS gave notice that he would postpone
until the 20th of May, his motion in reference to the
corn-laws.
PIIYSIC AND SURGERY BILL.
Mr. MUNTZ gave notice that upon the House going
into Committee on the Physic and Surgery Bill, he
would move a clause obliging
all practitioners to write
their prescriptions in plain English, and all druggists and
apothecaries to have their jars and bottles labelled in
plain English, from and after the Ist of January, 1846.
WAR IN CHINA.
Sir C. NAPIEI gave notice for an early day, that he
would move for certain returns in reference to sailors
who had been engaged in the late war with China, and
who had got leave of absence, and prize-money.
DROPPED NOTICES OF MOTION.
Mr. WAKLEY said lie would wish to renew his
motion for any day upon which he. thought that he
would be able to bring it on.—(A laugh.) He con-
ceived he had much reason to complain of the Govern-
ment not trying to make a House last night.—(A laugh.)
last night the House adjourned, there being only 34
Members present. Not a single individual connected with
the Government being at his post. He considered this
conduct as most unfair. Instead of throwing any
obstruction in the way of any individuals who had im-
portant duties to discharge, the Government
should do all in its power to facilitate them
on such occasions. Surely there ought to be
some new arrangement adopted. He could suggest
many, but he feared they would not meet with the
favour of the House. He must therefore indefinitely
postpone his motion, and bring it forward when

THE FARMERS. MAGAZINE.

This magazine is full of practical information on
all subjects connected with agriculture. Tee present
number contains reports of the meetings of the Royal
Society, the Farmer's Club, and the exhibition of im-
plements, the continuation of " Chemistry for Far-
mers," and directions for draining, manures, fatten-
ing stock, &c. There is an engraving of " Emma,"
a short-horned heifer, who gained the first prize at
the York cattle-show in 1842; but the principal fea-
ture for this month is the portrait of Dr. Liebig, and
the sketch of his life by Dr. Smith, formerly one of
his pupils.

THE SPORTING MAGAZINE.

The principal engraving for this month represents
that anxious and exciting moment, the " Starting
for the Derby." The impatient spectators are grouped
around, while the jockeys are endeavouring to form
their horses in a line—no easy task, as may be seen
by the eager, restless movements of the excited ani-
mals. They understand, as well as their riders, the
object of the race, but they cannot see the necessity of
" starting fair," and thus, like many of their betters,
they retard, by their over-impatience, the moment
they desire. It is a hard matter to win a race, but it
is a yet harder task
" To curb the fiery steed
In emulation's eager speed."
The literary department is, as usual, confined to sport-
ing pursuits. "Le Chasseur au Chien d'Arret," is
both instructive and amusing; it consists of some prac-
tical advice given to the young sportsman on the
field of action, delivered in a quaint and humorous
style. " One Cheer more for the Game laws," is, of
course, an attempt to excuse, or at least extenuate, the
severe regulations for preserving ffname. There are
some usefulremarks " On the Effects of Weight on
Horses," by Harry Hie'over; anecdotes of foreign
lands, and the usual routine of " Sporting Intelli-
gence."

GOVERNMENT PROTECTION, under 6 and
7 Vic., cap. 65, for three years, obtained by H. J. and D.
NICOLL, COURT TAILORS, 114, Regent-street, London, fbr their
new Introduction, the REGISTERED PALETOT, which is a summer
overcoat, light In weight, embracing the convenience and comfort of
the wrapper of tweed and its moderate price, without its inelegant and
universally admitted common appearance.
The material is of a peculiar softness, made expressly of the finest
Llama wool, and in its fashion is neither trop neglige ni trophabllle,
but whilst showing to advantage the proportions of the figure, it can-
not encumber free movement, worn riding or walking ; it will also,
from the neatness of its form, admit its being used as a light Frock
Coat—a desirable advantage in our warmest summer months, or
abroad, where heat is found oppressive. H. J. and D. Nicoll, sensi-
tive to the importance of that vade mecum—a moderate light over-
coat—in a climate so changeable as that of Great Britain, would not
submit to the public the Registered Paletot till themsetves satisfied of
its being perfect, and that when used as a pardessus, riding or walking,
or as summer frock, the above firm might pledge a reputation, which,
g -hied by matured skill and honoured by royal patronage, is of some
standing. This they can do with safety ; as their new introduction,
they respectfully submit, will not compromise that characteristic of
an English gentleman, the unassumed neatness of his attire. As a
wide extended sale is sought, the very moderate price of Two Guineas
is fixed. Respectable firms will alone be treated with relative to an
agency for the sale of the Registered Paletot, to whom alone a discount
can be allowed. There being a large and increasing demand, many
are kept ready in the extensive w arerooms, 114, Regent-street.

AMERICAN ICE.—A novel article of import ha
recently taken place in the shape of ice from America, in the
neighbourhood of the Wenham Lake, &c. The article is brought
in large blocks, varying from 2 cwt. to 4 cwt., and several vessels
have arrived laden almost entirely with it, having several hundred
tons on board. It is deposited in the ship's hold with care, and
covered and surrounded with wood dust, and so arrives in a very
perfect state, with very little loss in weight, particularly at this
period of the year. The greater portion of that hitherto imported
has been landed at the St. Katharine Docks, where a shed or
warehouse has been appropriated in a cool portion of the south
quay, and to which it is removed on being landed and deposited
until removed to the owners' private stores.
SINGULAR FACT IN NATURAL HISTORY.—If all
the accidental or eccentric deviations from the laws of
nature, which happen among the feathered tribes, were
recorded, it would form a pleasing addition to the studies
of the ornithologist. Tho following remarkable occur-
rence (similar to the mysterious practice of the cuckoo
of Great Britain, and the cow bunting of America) was
discovered lately, within eighty yards of the residence
of Mr. Bruce, gamekeeper to Lord Lovat, at Beaufort
Castle. A nest was found, in which there were a wood-
cock's and a bantam hen's eggs. The first p Asessor of
the "local habitation" cannot be ascertained ; but,
at
tam
e
that events, there the woodcock sits close, and so
that she remains undisturbed by visitors who are anxiouse
to notice the coming out of her brood. Should all the
eggs produce birds, the movements of the pullets will
be watched, in order to observe whether they remain
with their foster parents, or join the first party of
chickens they meet witb,--Invernen Courier,

" Who runs may read."

One of the Paris paper; says —"Since the weather has become
milder, the King takes a walk every morning between six and
seven o'clock, on the terrace in front of his apartments, after which
he retires to his cabinet to business."
The Prince de Joinville had left Paris for Chantilly.
Monday being the anniversary of the death of Napoleon, masses
for the repose of his soul were celebrated in twelve of the principal
churches of Paris. _

It is again reported as positive that the Minister of the Finances
is about to present a Bill to the Chambers, authorising the Bank
of France to issue in Paris notes for 250 francs, as it already does
in its branch banks of the departments. . .

By Royal Ordonnances, the following promotions in the Order
of the Legion of Honour have been made. To be Grand Officers :
M. Gay Lussac, member of the AcaCmie des Sciences, and M.
Dupont Delporte, Prefect of the Seine Infcrieure. To be Corn.
menders :—M. Augustin Thierry, of the Academie des Inscrip_
tions et Belles Lettres, M. Flourens, of the Academie des Sciences,
and M. 11. Passy, of the Academia des Sciences Morales et
Politiqucs.
Several of the journals announce that the Count de Salvandy,
the Minister of Public Instructien, is sericusly indisposed. The
Constitulionnel says that absolute repose and strict care as to diet
have been ordered by his physicians.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs has sent out an order to M.
Perrin, the French Consul at Bolivia, to proceed to the Sandwich
Islands and enter into treaty with their authorities. The Minister
of the Marine has, it is said, placed a ship of war at the disposal of
M. Perrin on the occasion of this mission.

A Stockholm letter, of the 22d ult., announces the return of the
King of Sweden, and states that immediately after arriving at the
palace he dissolved the Regency appointed to act during his absence.
It appears to be decided that the King of Prussia will pay a visit
to the Royal family of Sweden in the course of the summer, and
that the Queen's brother, the Duke de Leuchtenberg, will arrive
about the same time with his august consort. _ _ _

A letter from Warsaw, of April 25, states that the Emperor of
Russia has published a Ukase, declaring that all Jews must lay
aside their costume, and assume the national one. No one can
escape from the effects of this decree longer than for five years
from the present time, and even then only by paying a suns of
money.
