* " Remarks on Prevailing Errors Respecting Currency
and Banking," by Robert Cockburn, Esq. It is Rot intended
to assert that there is anything like unanimity amongst the
opponents of the Government scheme in their views of the
checks on mismanagement, or that all admit that any are
necessary. Probably many would prefer the Government plan
to the rule above propounded. It is only put as an example
of a check that might be created. 'the true question is.
is over issue the real evil? If it is, the disease and cure have
been rightly apprehended, 'if it is not, it is an example of
straining at gnats and swallowing camels.

It is stru'ek out of the list of representative boroughs,

CORN-EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.
In to-day's market rather an extensive number of Mon-
day's unsold samples of English Wheat were on offer ; but
the fresh arrivals were very limited. The demand for all de-
scriptions was extremely dull, and prices were barely sup-
ported. Foreign Wheat, both free and in bond, was a mere
drug, and almost nominal in value. In spring Corn under
lock we heard of no sales. Barley and Malt were excessively
heavy, and the turn lower. Oats, Beans, Peas, and Flour
commanded scarcely any a

LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 23, 1844.

Li
the Howe of Lords Mr. SERGEANT WRANG •
II AM was heard in opposition to the Bill for the Dis-
franchisement of Sudbury, and concluded his speech
at half-past five o'clock, when a discussion took place
on the Gaming Bill, which passed through Com-
mittee, and was ordered to be read a third time
this day.

The Howe then rtsumad the order of the day for
the Disfranchisement of Sudbury, and the LORD
CHANCELLOR strongly urged the expediency of the
measure, as a warning to other corrupt electors.
After a few words from Lord 13RotronAlt, the Bill
was read a second time without opposition, and
ordered to be committed.

The County Coroners' Bill passed through Com-
mittee.

The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the second reading
of the Charitable Trusts Bill.

The Bishop of LONDON hoped the Bill would not
be passed this session, as many of the Bishops were
obliged to leave town forthwith, and such a Bill
should not be discussed in their absence.
The Bill was read a second time, and after the
transaction of some other business, the House ad-
journed at Eleven o'clock.
The House of Commons met at Twelve o'clock, and
after some conversation re!afive to the Poor-law
Amendment Bill, and the marine explosion at
Brighton, went into Committee on the Joint-Stock
Banks Bill. The first clause was agreed to, and on
the second clause being real, it sas proposed by Mr.
Gl,ADlncla
_pat the Chairman should report pro.

BARKER'S LE3IPRIERE, REVISED BY CAUVIN.

Just published, Bvo., 12s. bound,
EMPRIERE'S CLASSICAL DICTIONARY,
abridged for Public and Private Schools of both Sexes. By
the late E. 11. BARKER, Trin. Coll. Cambridge. New Edition,
revised and corrected throughout. By J. CAUYIN.
This :is the only edition containing all the most recent im-
provements and additions of Professor .Antlion and other eminent
scholars ; and it is hoped that it will be distinguished from all other
editions of Lempriere, which, though larger in size, contain a large
quantity of matter not calculated to assist the scholar, and which
has been purposely expunged from this edition, thus diminishing
the expense of the work without injuring its utility as an elementary
school-book. All indelicacies, both in matter and language, have
been carefully avoided.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] ANOTHER EXTRAORDINARY
PROOF OF THE EFFICACY OF HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.—
Mr. Stevens, a gentleman holding a highly responsible
situation in an insurance-office in the City, from over-
attention to business became so bilious, debilitated, and
nervous, with palpitation of heart, and with a dread on
the mind of some approaching calamity, as to be ren-
dered for some weeks quite incapable of attending to his
duties. In this truly pitiable state he commenced the
use of this miraculous medicine, which in a fortnight
restored him to the highest enjoyment of health, and
this when physicians failed to afford the least relief.
Sold (also Holloway's Ointment) at Professor Hollo-
way's establishment, 224, Strand, where advice may be
had gratis), and by almost all respectable vendors of
medicine throughout the civilised world.
SOUTH DEvoN RAILWAY.—Our readers, and, in
fact, all persons interested in this important undertaking, will
be pleased to hear that steps have already been taken to com-
mence the works. They may, indeed, be said virtually to
have commenced, for on Monday last the Directors met at
Exeter, in order to facilitate the proceedings, and Mr.
Brunel has, for some time past, been engaged in ob-
taining the necessary information, preparatory to the
contracts being advertised. At Dawlish beach, the
soundings for the foundation have been taken by him, and
are in some places about 17 feet. The station will be on the
site of Mr. Kennaway's house ; the cuttings through the cliff
will soon be worked out on tD the rocks the Parson and Clerk.
The Sand Rock being easily cut, will soon be got through,
and the outward sea-wall facing, built of Babbicombe lime-
stone rock, will form its outward exterior, and will be of the
finest workmanship. It is considered certain that the line to
Newton will be completed within twelve months, and to Ply-
mouth in about two years.—Devonport Independent.
THE LATE ATTEMPT AT MURDER IN THE SHOOT-
ING-GALLERY, HOLBORN.—From inquiries made last night,
it appears that although Mr. Smith enjoyed comparatively
good rest on Sunday night, that he still continues in as pre-
carious a state as when he was first wounded. The ball is not
as yet extracted, and in consequence of its dangerous position
(the small o the back near the spine) they are compelled to
leave the ball to make its way by absorption, or through
poulticing. Lord Audley continues his attention to the
wounded man without intermission. His Lordship's ill-fated
brother still perseveres in his sullen silence, and will not give
the least cause for his insane act.

The Right Hon. J. B. Bosanquet has kindly pre-
sented 101. 10s. to the General Annuity Society, and Sir C.
Forbes, Bart., a like amount. The institution rapidly pro-
gresses in its patronage.

MEDICAL TESTIMONIAL—SIGHT AND
HEARING.
From T. J. Pettigrew, Surgeon, F.R.S. to Messrs.
S. and B. Solomons, opticians, 39, Albgaiarle-street,
Piccadilly,—Gentlemen, I have no hesitation in replying
to your inquiry as to the results obtained by the use of
your Improved Spectacles ; being in the constant habit
of reading and writing for many hours together by lamp-
light, it is but justice to say that your newly invented
Spectacle Lenses have afforded me the greatest comfort.
When I employed the ordinary pebbles, I never failed to
experience in the morning a great irritation in the eyes.
Since I have used your admirable glasses I suffer from
no inconvenience of the kind, and my vision is much im-
proved. I shall ever feel grateful to my good fiend,
Dr. Blundell for having drawn my attention to the sub-
ject.—Believe me to be yours, very respectfully. T. J.
PETTIGREW, 8, Saville-row. Also, newly invented
Acromatic Waistcoat-pocket Telescopes and °Nip.-
glasses of the same kind of Lenses.—Every kind of Te-
lescope of larger size and increasing powers for shooting,
sea purposes, and upon stand for astronomical observa-
tions the powers are so great and the lenses so bright
and brilliant that minute objects at an extraordinary dis-
tance is brought completely under the eyes. Sportsmen
tourists, and sea-side visitors will indeed here have a
great treat. Acoustic instruments of every description
for deafness. Caution.—Messrs. S. & B. Solomons, opti-
cians and aurists, are not in any way connected with a
person of the same name in their immediate neighbour-
hood, nor in any part of the country. To pre nt mis-
takes, be cautious, and observe—Only to be hM. at 39,
Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York Hotel.
BOULOGNE AND CALAIS.—The number of persons
who passed to and from France rid Boulogne, during the
week ending last Thursday, was 2,695 ; and rid Calais, 562.
The numbers in the corresponding week of last year were—
Boulogne, 1,356 ; and Calais, 702.

PAUL'S EVERY MAN'S FRIEND
is a sure and speedy cure for those annoyances, without
causing the least pain or inconvenience. Unlike all other remedies
for corns, its oi.eration is such as to render the cutting of
corns altogether unnecessary: indeed, we may say, the practice of
cutting corns is at all times highly dangerous, and has been fre-
quently attended with lamentable consequences, besides its liability
to increase their growth. It adheres with the most gentle pressure,
producing an instant and delightful relief from torture, and, with
perseverance in its application, entirely eradicates the most in-
veterate corns aid bunions.

EXTRAORDINARY TESTIMONIALS.
From Dr. Cummins, Lecturer on Medical Jurisprudence at the
Aldersgate School of Medicine.
Dr. Cummins presents his compliments to Mr. Paul, and begs to
inform him that his Every Man's Friend has entirely taken away
his Corns, and he has recommended it to several of his friends and
patients, and in no one instance has it failed in eradicating both
Corns and Bunions,

THE LATE EARL OF KINTORE.—His Lordship's
health had been perceptibly declining for some time past, but
the late melancholy occurrences in his family pressed heavilt
on his spirits, and sensibly injured his health. His death is
very generally regretted, and tnmany his removal will not
easily be made'up. His word 'was always inviolably kept,
and in the accuracy of his business habits he was equalled
by few in any station in life, and could be surpassed by none.
He was of the most benevolent disposition. Great as his
charitable donations were known to be amongst the poor on
his own estates, and in the neighbourhood where he lived,
we have reason to know that his stated charities formed but
a very small part of his beneYelent exertions, which, from the,
secret manner he carefully observed in dispensing his bounty,
will never be so fully known as the loss will be widely fell.
In the sports of the field he took great delight, and as a bold
and intrepid rider in the chase he had few equals ; but for
some time back the state of his Lordship's health prevented
him from taking part is this manly exercise, and latterly
his pack was sold. His funeral will, agreeably to his wish,
be private. Ms Lordship was raised to the rank of a Bri-
tish Peer in 1838, and has left two sons by his second mar-
riage, the eldest of whom succeeds to the titles and family
estates.--Caledonian lifercur.V.
