To LADIES.—The MO and universal celebrity
which Rowland's Kalydor continues to maintain, as an active
yet mild and soothing extirpator of all impurities of the
skin, is, during the period of Spring, most pleasingly evinced.
This preparation, eminently balsamic, restorative, and invi-
gorating, is equally celebrated for safety in application, as for
unfailing efficacy m.removing all impurities and discoloura-
tion • and imparting a healthy freshness and transparency
to the Skin and Complexion. Its universally great demand
excites the cupidity of unprincipled shopkeepers, who give
the title of " Genuine" Kalydor to compounds of their own
manufacture, of the most deleterious character, containing
mineral astringents utterly ruinous to the Complexion, and,
by their repellant-action endangering health. It is, here-
fore, imperative on purchasers to see that the words " Row-
land's Kalydor" are on the wrapper.—All others are fraudu-
lent Counterfeits.

MARYLEBONE.-7('THIS DAY.)

Charles Barret, a young man of gentlemanly appearance,
described as an artist, was placed before Mr. Long, charged
by one of the park-keepers of the Regent's-park, with having
cut some letters upon-one of the seats there.
The park-keeper stated that seeing the defendant rising
from the seat he went there, and found that it had been in-
jured. He therefore took him into custody.
The defendant had nothing to say in extenuation.
Mr. Fell, the chief clerk, suggested that the defendant,
being an artist, might wish to leave upon record a specimen
of wood engraving.
Mr. LONG did not wish to repress genius, but public pro-
perty must be protected.—Fined 10s.

UNION HALL.-(THIS DAY.)
Two notorious young pickpockets, named Ilittr• and Jones,
were charged before Mr. Trail with stealing a silk handker-
chief from the pocket of Mr. Fenwick, the firework-manufac-
turer, in the Borough-road.
The complainant stated that on the preceding afternoon, as
he was walking along the Westminster-road, he felt a tug at
his coat pocket, and missed a silk handkerchief. He turned
round and saw the two prisoners and another lad (not in cus
tody) immediately behind him, and at the same time saw the
handkerchief fall on the ground from one of them. He seized
the two prisoners, and the lad (not in custody) picked up the
handkerchief, and, holding it up, offered to give it to the
owner if he would let his companions go. During this pro-
ceeding the prisoners made ;the most vigorous attempts to
escape, by kicking and biting the complainant, but he held
them firmly until a policeman came up and took them into
custody.:
Both the prisoners have been repeatedly in custody on si-
milar charges to the above, and they were committed.

SUMMARY OF NE'il

A N D

Vutatt Cointion.

" Who runs may read."

FOlitFati\or.

Reports were current in Paris that the health of the King
was not very satisfactory. He had not taken his usual ex-
ercise, and there had been no :public receptions tor two days.
Not much credit, however, is to be attached to these reports,
for we find that the King, Queen, and Royal family, her Royal
Highness the Duchess of Kent, and other illustrious guests of
the King and Queen of the French, enjoyed on Tuesday a
private view of the exhibition in the splendid temporary
range of buildings erected for that purpose on the Grand.
Carre of the Champs Elysees. In the evening the " recep-
tions " customary on the eve of the King's fete were to take
place.
On Monday the Duke de Montpensier arrived at Paris from
Marseilles.
The Duchess of Orleans visited Dreux last week, accompa-
nied by the Duke de Praslin and a lady of honour.
Lady Georgina Fane, and General Sir William and Lady
Lumley, had arrived at Paris.
The following promotions have been made by the King in
the Legion of Honour;—To be Grand Cross, Vice-Admiral
Anaoux ; to be Commander, Rear-Admiral Hamelin ; to be
Officers, Captains Tavenet, Guayde, Taractel, Valliant, and
Money.
The Presse states that the Bank of France has abandoned
its intention of issuing notes of circulation of 250 f. The
Presse deplores this determination, as the proposed measure
was anxiously desired by the public.
M. Sellier, an opposition candidate, has been elected De-
puty at Cherbourg, in the room of M. de Briqueville, deceased.
He had 292 votes ; and his opponent, General Meslin, 288.
Letters from Rome announce the death of Cardinal Paces.,
the Dean or Senior of the Sacred College, on the 19th inst.
He was born at Benevento, on the 25th December, 1756, and
made Cardinal by Pius VII. in 1801.
The Great Liverpool arrived at Alefandria on the 18th,
with 112 passengers for India. The last adcounts received
from Syria announced that 200 inhabitants of Hasbeya, a
village situate at the foot of Mount Lebanon, had abjured the
Greek orthodox religion to embrace Protestantism.

VINEGAR DUTIES.

The House went into Committee on the Vinegar
Duties, Old
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved a
resolution pledging the House to the reduction proposed
by him in the Budget, when
Dr. BOWING expressed his regret that the mea-
sure of the Hcn. Gentleman would have the effect of
encouraging the manufacture in this country of the in-
ferior sorts of vinegar—the greatest trash possible. The
really good vinegar came from abroad, and it would
have been well to have given every facility to its intro-
troduction into this country when dealing with that
article.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER .said, if
the Hon. Gentleman had been in the House when that
part of the budget had been stated, he would have learnt
that the duties on home vinegar fell under the Excise,
and those on foreign vinegar under the Customs, which
made all the difference, and justified the course he had
taken.

The resolution was agreed to ; the House resumed ;
the resolution was reported to the House ; and leave
was given to bring in a Bill founded upon it. •
RAILWAYS—MARINE INSURANCES—AGREE-

M ENTS.

The House having gone into Committee,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved
the resolution for the reduction of the duties on Marine
Insurances, as proposed in the budget. He had to add
that in the same resolution he proposed to make a de-
duction of the duty on agreements from 1/. to '2s. 6d.—
(Hear, hear)—and also on the duties on proxies for voting
for railway and other compuiies from 11. 10s. to 2s. 6d.
After some obervations from Sir. Hume, Dr. Bowring,
Mr. Warburton, Mr. Foster, the Chancellor of the EX-
chequer, and Mr. Hawes,
Mr. HUME gave notice that he should expect the
Chancellor of the Exchequer to lay before them a table
of the maritime duties paid, -and what were to be paid,
before- they proceeded another stage, when he should
move that the highest duty should be .3s. on insurances.
The resolutions were then agreed to, and the House
resumed, when they were ordered to be reported to the
House to morrow.

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 Detavent."—From the Right Hon. C. D'Eyn -
court, M.P.
. "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,
the dust, and stains, and the frame has now the appearance and hril-
Raney 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 acid lboking-
glass frames in a moderate-sized house."—Vide Nottingham Review,

GOUT, RHEUMATISM, &c.—Among the
many discoveries that characterise the present age, nothing
has contributed so much to the comfort and ease of the community,
nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as that import-
ant discovery, and never-failing remedy for Gout and Rheumatism,
BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, the immense advan-
tages of which are te,tified by the approval and recommendation of
many of the greatest men of our day. They are for Gout and Rheu-
matism, in all its various forms, I eluding sciatica, lumb igo, pains
in the face, frequently treated as tooth-a,-he, &c. They require nei-

the disoase attacking the stomach, brain, or other vital part.

LAW AND POLICE.

At the Mansion-house two young men, named Hart and
Johnson, who were fashionably. dressed, and had very much
the appearance of Medical students, and a little boy named
Johnny Biitan, who walked between the other two in quality
of a little brother, were brought before the Lord Mayor,
charged with having made repeated attempts to pick pockets.
They stoutly asserted their innocence, but the Lord Mayor
nevertheless sent their for three months to Bridewell as
rogues and vagabonds.
At Guildhall a summons was granted against an informer
named Birch, evidence having been given showing that he
had used the laws and the summonses of the Court as the
,means of extorting money, by laying informations and com-
promising them with the parties accused. Air. Alderman
Copeland made some severe remarks on the whole gang of
informers, who, he said, used thelaivs, not for the public
good, but merely for the sake of extortion ; and expressed a
determination to sift the matter to the bottom. . •
William Burton Newenham, charged. with the abduction
of Miss Wortham, was again brought up at Clerkenwell for
examination, and again remanded. The prisoner said that
he conceived himself to be very much ill-used. He had been
harasSed week after week, and it struck him that there was
a decided feeling against him on the part of the Magistrate.
London, England, 1844-05-03

BOW-STREET,-(THIS DAY.)

A respectable-looking man, named Gardner, the money-
Nertilwliaasm Stubbins, at the theatre,
placed before Mr. Jardine,

The complainant stated that he went to the pit of the
theatre last night with his wife. He put down half-a-crown
to pay for admission at half-price ; and when he got into the
pit with his wife, he suddenly remembered that he had not
received the sixpence change. He went back to the de-
faidant, and told him of the circumstance, and the defendant
said lie had given the sixpence, and if somebody else had
taken it up, he could not help it. The complainant became
rather excited, and told the defendant that if he did not give
him the sixpence, he would be acting as a swindler. Upon
this the defendant struck the witness a violent blow in the
mouth, arid he was, in consequence, given into custody.
The defendant said the complainant was very insolent and
offensive in his behaviour. When the complainant came to
him he examined his cash, and found that it was correct ;
and he therefore told the complainant that he should not
give him the sixpence back. Upon this the complainant
called him a swindler and a vagabond. -
Mr. JARDINE said this was not sufficient to justify a blow.
As, however, there was some provocation, he would only in-
flict a penalty of 10s.—The money was immediately paid.
London, England, 1844-05-03

BANK CHARTER.

Mr. F. BARING wished to know what course it was
proposed to follow on Monday with reference to the
Bank Charter. He wished to know if the First Lord
of the Treasury intended on Monday merely to make
a statement of his proposition without calling for the
decision of the Hduse, or if it was intended at once
to ask for the decision of the House on the propositions
which would be laid before it ?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had not
had an opportunity of seeing the First Lord of the
Treasury since he had had notice of the Right Hon.
Gentleman's question; but he believed that it. was his
Right Hon. Friend's intention not to call upon the
House to agree to any resolutions on Monday, if there
should be any objection to his, propositions.

LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1844.

In the Lords, a Bill was introduced by Lord
CAMPBELL, for the more speedy recovery of debts
in Ireland.

The Earl FITZWII L
moveIAM
f gave notice that on Tues-
day, he wouldfor a Commission to inquire
what points of the country
said, they required railways.
The Duke
of l vuLLui
heappointmentshuttn
the
TON
like
g
of such a Commission, would
stable door when the horse hadbeen stolen.
The Marquis of NORMANDY presented a petition
from the working men of Edinburgh, praying tha
Legislature to establish better sanatory regulations
with respect to the dwellings of the poor.
Lord CAMPBELL supported the prayer of the pe: •
tion, and said Edinburgh was justly entitled toill;
epithet of the " Modern Athens."
Lord BROUGEIAM said the inhabitants considered
this epithet as an insult, and had his Noble Friend
been still representative of that city, he would not
have had the support of his constituents in what he
had stated.
Lord CAMPBELL then &scribed Lord BROI:GIiA24I
as an Alcibiades, a Pericles, and a Demosthenes,
and the conversation (in the Parliamentary phrase)
dropped.
Lord CAMPBELL moved the committal of the Writ
4f Errors Bill.

The LORD CHANCELLOR opposed it, and said, he
verily believed the Bill had been introduced solely
in reference to the trials pending in Ireland.
Lord CoTTENnam supported the Bill, and said,
nothing could be more preposterous than that a party
should be undergoing a punishment while a Court of
Appeal was deliberating whether that punishment
ought to be inflicted. We believe every man in the
kingdom concurs with Lord COTTENHAM, yet the
11 was rejected without a division.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, July 30.

IN RE WILLIAM AMBROSE CLARKE.

The insolvent had carried on business as a publican,
in the town of Chichester, and was opposed by Mr.
Woodruffe on the part of his brewers. His petition
was supported by Mr. Cooke.
The grounds of opposition were, that he had made
away with property to the detriment of his creditors, to
a large amount.
Evidence haviig been adduced, which showed that the
insolvent had sold his house a few days before he pri-
vately left Chichester, taking with him 170/. in cash ;
and also that he had been possessed of a great quantitty
of plate, of which no account had been rendered in his
schedule. The insolvent, in his defence, said, that after
his arrival in London he had bought a number of shares
in the Agricultural Association of New Zealand, and
some new shares in a joint-stock bank, the name or
locality of which he could not describe.
Mr. NrciroLts said this was a gross case of fraud,
and .the Court felt bound to stamp it with its strongest
mark of reprobation. The sentence was, that the in-
solvent be remanded for twelve calendar months from
the date of his vesting order.

SUMMER ASSIZES.
HOME CIRCUIT.—Lewes, July 29.
The Commission for the county of Sussex was opened
to day at nine o'clock, end at ten both Courts proceeded
to business. On tha Civil side sixteen causes are en-
tered, and there are thirty prisoners for trial.
Mr. Baron Parke sat in the Criminal Court, and Mr.
Baron Gurney presided at Nisi Prius.
(Before Mr. Baron PARKE.)
Charles Phillips, aged 17, a well-dressed youth, who
was said to be very respectably connected, was indicted
for uttering a forged order for the payment of money,
with intent to defraud the Brighton Union Bank.
The prisoner pleaded Guilty.—Sentence was deferred.
Joseph Martin, a child, eight years old, was indicted
for feloniously setting fire to a stack of corn, the pro-
perty of Edmund Cruttenden.
The circumstances of this case were similar to those
that have been detailed on several occasions during the
present assize, in which children have been charged with
offences of the same character. The prosecutor is a
farmer residing at Salehurat, in this county, and on the
day mentioned in the indictment, one of his stacks was
discovered to be on tire. Suspicion fell upon the pri-
soner, and on his being taken into custody and ques-
tioned by the prosecutor, he admitted that he had thrust
a lighted lucifer match into the stack, in order that he
might see a good fire. It appeared that before the little
culprit made this statement, theprosecutor had promised
him he would forgive him if he told the truth.
Mr. Baron PARKE said that under these circumstances
the confession could not legally be received in evidence,
and as there was nothing else to support the charge, the
prisoner was entitled to his acquittal.
The jury accordingly returned a verdict of Not
Guilty, and
Mr. Baron PARKE desired that the prisoner should
be immediately placed in the charge of his father, who
was waiting to receive him.

UNION-HALL.

Yesterday James Buckley, Catherine, his wife, Edward
Haynes, Bridget Brown, Caroline Wigzel, and Mary
Quin, were charged with stealing a cash-box, containing
gold, silver, and Bank notes, to the value of 1801, the
property of Mr. Conolly, a newsvender, residing near
the station of the Greenwich Railway, at London-bridge.
About three or four months since the prosecutor, Mr.
Conolly, was robbed of a cash-box containing gold and
notes of the value as stated above. At the period of the
robbery the prisoner Brown was in the service of Mr.
Conolly, as a domestic servant, and from circumstances
which came to his knowledge, he suspected that the rob-
bery was committed by Brown, but could not bring it
home to her for want of sufficient testimony. Brown
was related to the prisoner Wigzel's wife by marriage,
and was in the habit of visiting at her house, in Russell-
court,
Drury-lane. Buckley was at the period an in-
patient of Charing-cross Hospital ; but it appears that
the prisoner Brown and Mrs. Buckley were oi very
inti-
mate terms, visiting each other daily. A pol! iceman, in
private
clothes, was set motions of Brown,
to watch the
and he proceeded to the home of Wigzel, where Mrs.
1 Buckley was staying, and questioned her respecting
the. rclitery, but failed to elicit any evidence relative
to the caslf-box. Nothing further was heard of the
transaction until about a fortnight ago, when
Mary Quin was charged at Bow-street Police-court,
on suspicion of having one of the stolen notes
in her possession, which note she said was given to her
by her mistress, Miss Harrison, who keeps a cigar-shop
adjoining, the English Opera-house. The note was a
Bank of England note, of the value of 51. The note was
identified by Mr. Conolly, as having been stolen from
his cash-box. Miss Harrison, on being requested to
account for the possession of the note, said that she re-
ceived it from the prisoner Mrs. Wigzel. Quin had left
the service of Miss Harrison about four days previous to
this latter occurrence, and was then staying at the house
of the prisoner Wigzel. From information given to the
police, they proceeded to the house of Wigzel, and after
searching the house, two large boxes containing a
quantity of wearing apparel, bed-ticks, table-covers, and
linen, were discovered, supposed to be the produce of the
robbery, which were taken possession of by the police,
and the prisoners given into custody.
Mr. Conolly said :there was the direct testimony of
Miss Harrison having received the 51 note from one of
the prisoners,
and he was prepared to swear to the num-
ber of the note.

CAPTAIN WARNER.

Sir J. GRAHAM said there was a notice of motion
on the paper with respect to Captain Warner's invention ;
but, as his Right Hon. Friend at the head of the Govern•
ment was most anxious to be present when that subject
came forward, and as it was, from particular circum-
stances, impossible for him to be in his place that day,
he would suggest to his Noble Friend (Lord Ingestre)
the desirableness of postponing the motion, either until
to-morrow or Friday.
Lord INGESTRE said he should, tinder the circum-
stances, postpone the motion until to-morrow at five
o'clock.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 1844.

In the Lords the Three-and-a-Half per Cents. Dis-
sentients Bill was passed.
The Ecclesiastical Courts Bill and the Metropolitan
Buildings Bill went through Committee. The Law
Courts (Ireland) Bill also went through Committee,
with very brief remarks. Important measures now
go through the House at railroad speed.
The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the report of the
Committee on the Bill for repealing certain Acts
imposing penalties on Roman Catholics.

The Bishop of LONDON (we use his own words)
c'did not wish it to be supposed that he was opposed to
the repeal of those penal laws, which pressed not prac-
tically but in theory only upon the Roman Catholics."
The pious Prelate opposed the measure most strenu-
ously, because the Bishops had not been consulted,
and he then, not openly, but in the style of the Je-
suits, by inuendos, denounced Sir R. PEEL, for giv-
ing his support to the Catholic Emancipation Bill.
The first time, he said, when the bulwarks of the
Protestant Church were broken was when that Bill
Was Passed. What a selfish, persecuting, and wealthy
crew Sir R. PEEL has to keep in order ! These in-
tolerant, uncalled-for remarks of this upstart Pre-
late, the son of a schoolmaster, will let the per-
secuted Catholics of Ireland know what mercy they
are to expect from the Bench of Bishops ;
stud, above all, from the Bishop of LONDON, who,
if we are to judge from his addresses to the Lon-
don clergy, is as good a Catholic as Father M'HALE,
the Bishop of Tuam. Towards the conclusion of the
discussion, Dr. BLOMFIELD said he felt justified in
the course he had taken by the countenance and ap-
Itprobation of such of his Right Reverend and Most
everend Brethren, who had attended to support him.
6o he was made the mouthpiece of the bench, and
tiot one Liberal Prelate, not one sincere friend of
Protestantism, was present to denounce this atrocious
Sttack on seven millions of our fellow-sub.
ects. Lord BROUGHAM, to his honour, op..
posed this selfish—this suicidal mania. " One
of these penal laws," he said, " which the
Bill would repeal, one of these safeguards of the
Established Church, imposed a penalty of 200 marks
Upon every one who attended mass ; yet mass was
said in every part of London every week, every day,
perhaps; and Catholic churches, some of them of great
architectural beauty, were erected in all parte, at the
!expense of the pious in that persuasion. Would any
one attempt to enforce that cruel and absurd statute ?"
The Bishop of LONDON would if he had the power.

THE RAJA OF SATTARA.

Mr. HUME moved for copies of all correspondence
relating to the deposed Raja of Sattara, which has taken
place between the Government of India and Major Car-
penter, the officer in charge of the Raja, from September,
1889, the time of his llighness' departure for Benares,
to the Ist of January, 1844. The Hon. Member said it
had been his intention to submit to the House, in moving
for these papers, a short statement of the injuries of the
Raja of Sattara ; but as he had been informed that there
was no objection to their production he was unwilling
to take up the time of the House by entering into details.
Dr. BO\VRING seconded the motion. This unfortu-
nate Prince had long been waiting for justice, and he
hoped he would not have to wait for it much longer.
Mr. B. BARING said there was no objection on' the
part of the Company to produce the return.
After some observations from Mr. NOGG and Sir T.
COLEBROOKE, the motion was agreed to.
The Debtors and Creditors Bill was read a first time,
and ordered to be read a second time on Thursday.
The Transfer of Real Property Bill was read a first
