RECENT TESTIMONIALS,

"I am highly satisfied with your Gold and Lacquer Detergents.
I hope to recommend them to some of my friends, as they answer so
well, especially the Gold Detergent."—From the Right lion. C. D'Eyn-
court, M.l'.
" We first tried the Gold Detergent on a costly looking-glass frame
that had been a few years gilt. It removed the whole of the fly spots,
Use dust, and stains, and the frame has now the appearance and bril-
liancy of the day it left the workman's hands. Next on two very old
frames—from their colour we were almost in doubt whether they
were gilded or not. The Detergent soon convinced us of the fact, by
removing the accumulated stains and tarnish of many years ; these
frames have now the appearance of being nearly new."—Liverpool
Chronicle, Jan. 27, 1844.
" We have tried the Gold Detergent upon several old picture
frames, and must confess we were very agreeably surprised at the
result for it restores the splendour of gilding with very little trouble.
A single bottle is more than sufficient for all the picture and looking-
glass frames in a moderate-sized house."—Vide Nottingham Review,
April 5, 1844.

and Sir 11. Peel,
The House divided on the question of adjournment, when

THE LI6HTNING.--(From a Correspondent.)—As
Mr. Edward Johnson, of 14, Stebonheath-terrace, Lime-
house, was sitting up in bed reading, where he has been con-
fined through illness more than two months, he was struck
by lightning, on Monday night, which dashed the papers from
him, and entering his fingers ran up his arms to his neck and
down his breast, where the lightning seemed to be fixed, aid
burning.with great heat for nearly half an hour; his hands
were violently stunned, and his whole frame much shaken.
Be describes the, shock as similar to that felt by dipping the
fingers into the electrified water at the Adelaide Gallery, but
much more violent. On Wednesday morning he was much
better,

him to be three, and not four years old. I refrain from
mentioning the person's name, as, after he found the tide of
public opinion to set in strongly against the horse, he at first
wavered in the opinion which he had given, and afterwards
retracted it. This and a similar occurrence—of which the
public are well aware—respecting Leander, and the assertion
of one of the highest veterinary surgeons, publishe Lin the
sporting journals, that the mouth of a horse is a fallible cri-
terion of its age, induced Mr. Wood to believe such to be the
fact, and that an examination of the horse's mouth would not
further the ends of justice. Immediately, however, that it
appeared upon the trial, that the production of the horse was
desired by Colonel Peel's advisers, for the purpose of identity,
and not the mere examination of his mouth, Mr. Wood de-
termined that he should be produced if the trial proceeded,
and his firm resolution on that point produced the sudden
termination of the trial.

Mr. Wood's beneficial interest in the stakes being but
small, he endeavoured to avoid a lawsuit, and to have the
dispute decided by the stewards. But the instant that Col. Peel
commenced the action, in which the issue Wood v. Peel was
framed, Mr. Wood refused, in my presence, and with my ad-
vice, as his solicitor, to litigate a matter in which he had so
little interest, but being most positively assured, and believ-
ing that the horse was Running Rein, he, upon receiving a
bond of indemnity, permitted those who had a greater inter-
est than himself in the stakes, to use his name for the pur-
pose of trying the question, and to employ their own attorney,
the use of ➢lr. Wood's name being necessary for the purpose.
In conclusion, I beg to contradict an erroneous impression,
which I hear exists, that Mr. Alexander Wood is the same
person as, or related to, or connected with, the plaintiff in
the action, Wood v. Ledbitter, which was tried a few days
since.

Mr. A. Wood is a corn chandler and coal merchant at
Epsom, where he has resided and carried on that business
nearly 20 years, and where his real character as an honest
and upright man is well known.
Mr. A. Wood has been at my office every day this week,
for the purpose of seeing and consulting me on the above
matter, but I have been unavoidably absent, otherwise I
should have been present with him at the trial, and have of-
fered this explanation at a much earlier period.
I am, Sir, your very obedient servant,

The 3larquis of NORMANDY, in the House of Lords
last even in,g, made some remarks about the recal of
.Lord ELLAninonouon, and faintly called for docu-
Vents which he evidently knew would not be granted.
He, at the san.`e time, defended the course pursued by

'until the correspon,:lence on the subject was produced,
the House and the coun;ry could not entertain a
shadow of suspicion as to tht, it motives.

LATER FROM the UNITED STATES.

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.

We have received, by the politeness of some of the
passengers by the New York packet-ship, Indepen-
dence, Captain Nye (who left the ship when she was
detained by contrary winds off Kinsale, and arrived
here by the Dublin mail this morning), New York
papers of the Bth April, the day of her sailing from
that city.

They do not possess any news of political impor-
tance ; it was expected that Mr. Calhoun would in-
troduce the Texian and Oregon questions, in a short
time, as the sympathy of the West might thus be
brought to the support of Texian movement, and also
to give time for negotiations with Mexico to
become a party to the step. At present he is
frequently engaged in conference with our Minister,
Sir R. Pakenham.

In the Bill before the House to prevent private ex-
presses, Mr. Hannegan proposed to add a clause,
authorising the search of passengers' trunks and boxes,
when they were suspected to contain letters, an inva-
sion of the subject that had caused some stir.
Professor Sanderson, favourably known as the
author of " The American in Paris," died at Phila-
delphia, on the sth of April.
The American brig Frances Lord, Captain Brown,
of W.ew York, was visited by her Britannic Majesty's
ship, Alert, when off the west coast of Africa, on the
2d January ; a musket shot was fired into the Frances
Lord, and great want of courtesy is complained of.
At New York, business generally is reported to be in
a good state, though the amount of actual transactions
in the week was not large. Money is more in de-
mand, the banks obtaining readily 5 per cent. for
short, and 6 per cent. for long date bills. The rate
of exchange was firm at 8 to 8i prem. on London,
and sf. 28.1 c. per dollar on Paris.

In the Cotton Market there was decidedly an im-
proved feeling. In fact, the reduction in price which
had taken place was quite recovered, so that the
market stood as it was before the arrival of the last
steamer. The sales of the week ending 6th April
were 17,000 bags, viz.', 9,150 Upland and Florida at
7f to 8 for middling to ordinary; 81 to 815,-; for midd-
ling fair to fine ; and 9 to 91 for good fair to fine ; and
7,850 Mobile arid New Orleans at 71 to 81 for midd-
ling to ordinary ; 81 to 9/1 for middling fair to fine ;
and 91 to 10i for good fair to fine. Freights have
slightly relaxed, being now 7 9-16 for cotton to Li-
verpool by the packets.

LAW AND POLICE.

In the InsolveTtDetito7.4' Court, William Gilbert was op-
posed on the ground that he had committed breaches of
trust against the parties who had employed him as a com-
mercial traveller. The insolvent lead been engaged by a
person named End as a traveller, and had received large
sums on account of his employer and others, who had en-
gaged him in a similar capacity. The insolvent petitioned
the Court of Bankruptcy under the new Act, when his peti-
tion was dismissed on the ground for which he was now op-
posed—namely, that he had incurred debts by means et
breaches of trust. The Chief Commissioner said two distinct
cases had been proved ; one was to 2001., and the insolvent
would be remanded. The imprisonment he had already
undergone would be considered.
At the Central Criminal Court Wm. Carrell, aged 48, was
convicted of stealing, on the 2d of January, 70 sovereigns, and
four Bank of England notes, value 51. each, the property of
James Ford, and was sentenced to be transported for seveu
rem.
Win. Henry Whitfield, a commercial traveller, who was
remanded from the last session, was indicted for embezzling
and stealing the sums of Si. 65., 71. 65., and 2/. 10s., in the
months of October, November, and December last, which he
had received on account of Messrs. Reader, Stukely, and Co.,
his employers. There was a second indictment charging the
prisoner with similar purloinings. He pleaded guilty to both
charges. He was sentenced to be imprisoned in the House
of Correction for 18 months, and kept at hard labour.
At Bow-street, WTm. Nix, an errand-boy, aged 15 years, in
the service of Mr. John Ward, treasurer to the Infant School
Society, was brought before Mr. Hall, charged with stealing
8/. 10s., belonging to his master. The prosecutor wished to
decline proceeding against the prisoner, as it was his first
offence, and his friends were very respectable. Mr. Hall said
his duty would not be performed if he did not commit the
prisoner for trial ; and it would rest with the Court to con-
sider the prosecutor's recommendation in his behalf. The
prisoner declined to say anything, and was removed to
Newgate.
Wm. Burton Newenham, charged at Clerkenwell with the
abduction of Miss Frances Louisa Wortham, was fully corn
witted to Newgate, and will be tried during the present sessions.
