THE ADELAIDE HOTEL, L 0 NDON-BRIDGE.
MR. FOOK S, having heel 3. instructed by the
Proprietor to DISPOSE OF 1 his valuable Concern by
PRIVATE CONTRACT, solicits the at tE ntion of those who may be
desirous of embarking in a FIRST-RAT E ESTABLISHMENT, and
which, by ordinary application, will 1 d ways be a lucrative one.
The ADELAIDE HOTEL is admirably 'situate for business, conve-
nience, and pleasure, in the most crow ded thoroughfare of the Me-
tropolis of the world, at the foot of the ix bh st bridge, on the banks of
its finest river. At this spot arrive fron t ,every habitable division of
the earth, the prince, the merchant, the St Adler, the sailor, the tra-
veller of every grade. From this 11( de 1 passengers embark for
France, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Genna 8,c., and to all parts of
Europe, Asia, Africa, and America; in ch •ed, without hyperbole, it
may be termed " The Starting-point of flat Globe." To every fashion-
able Watering-place and Town of imp ovil ince or public resort, the
access from hence is as ready as it is ea 3Y, whether by steam-boat or
by railway. Every minute in the day br utp s conveyances to and from
the east, west, north, and south parts of tl .is great City, and the com-
munication with all the railways is c or tinuous and certain. The
situation is 'without a rival ; land and v rater vie with each other in
offering the greatest advantages for sect It lug a home and foreign con-
nexion, and an extensive and profitable • business. The exterior of
the Adelaide Hotel presents noble front a ges to the river and bridge,
with a spacious terrace overlooking L o th. The interior pourtrays
well the ability of the architect. Large u ul well-proportioned coffee-
rooms, elegant dining and drawing-room n a, light and airy sleeping
apartments, all commanding beautiful vie-s -s of the Thames ; commo-
dious wine and smoking rooms, so excelleso tly placed as to be distinct
from the Ilotel ; with cellarage, for size, col •enience, and temperature,
unequalled in the metropolis. The Tap a nd domestic offices are in
unison with the admirable arrangement I )f the whole structure. In
fine, rich as London is in hotels, not on a presents equal capabilities
(to a person possessing activity and mod el 'ate capital) for realising in
a few years an independent fortune.
Mr. Fooks is authorised to treat, as to tl to coming in, with responsible
parties in a spirit of liberality. Particv tars and cards to view can
only be obtained at his offices, 1, Serle-s nett, Lincoln's Inn-fields.

LORD MORPETH.

In another part of our paper will be found a lengthened
report of the proceedings of the free-trade banquet at Wake.
field on Wednesday. Very great interest was attached to
this meeting in consequence of the attendance of Lord Morpeth.
The Noble Lord's withdrawal from public life for the last two
years has been a source of deep regret, as well as a real loss, to the
Liberal party. The circumstances attending Lord Morpeth's
temporary retirement were such as to increase the attachment
which his countrymen already so strongly felt for the many emi-
nent qualities which distinguish his character ; and his re-appear-
ance amongst them was by many hailed with the greater enthusiasm,
from its being regarded as the preliminary step to the re-occupa-
tion by his Lordship of an active position in the ranks of his party.
And we trust this anticipation may not be wholly disappointed.
The speech of Lord Morpeth is another indication of the progress
of opinion upon the subject of free trade. Like the letter of Mr.
Gibson Craig, it is one of the facts that denote this pro-
gress, as it were, by stages. In IS4I, Lord Moipeth was
a strenuous advocate of an eight-shilling fixed duty.
Such a compromise as that his Lordship now thinks
is wholly unattainable. Ile thinks, however, that even still a coin-
promise is desirable ; and, notwithstanding the adverse opinions of
the audience by which lie was surrounded, he candidly avowed this.
But, he added, if within a year a low fixed duty is not adopted, he
would then join the League in demanding a total repeal. And thus will
it be with the whole party which is now in favour of a fixed duty.
The operation of the same causes which have converted a sup-
porter of an eight-shilling duty into an advocate of a five-shilling
duty, must Induce the advocate of the five shilling duty, by and
by, to join the ranks of the total repealers. However desirable
may be the adoption of a low fixed duty, as a compromise of a
question upon which two great interests of the nation are at issue,
or however just, in point of principle, it may be regarded by many,
yet all men are coming, by degrees, to feel that neither upon the
ground of justice, or still less of expediency, can such a settlement
be hoped for, after the obstinate resistance of another year. The
combination against it is becoming too strong. It is, day by day,
absorbing into its ranks some new element of power, which, like
the conditional adhesion of Lord Morpeth, renders its final triumph
only a question of time.—Chronicle.

UNITED STATES.

, TGERSDAY EVENING.
The packet-ship Stephen Whitney,LIVERPOOL Captain Thompson, which
sailed from New York on the 13th of January, arrived here to-day
' with ten cabin passengers.
The Governor of Maine had opened the Legislative Assembly of
that State in a message which, as compared with the majority of the
State documents bearing the same mune, is brevity itself. The
Mnded debt of the State is 1,700,000 dollars, most of it bearing inte-
rest at the rate of six per cent. The interest upon the debt during
the last and preceding years was covered by money received from the
land agent and from the Federal Government. For the future the
Governor recommends that a tax be levied to defray the annual ex-
penses. The banks are not represented as being in a very healthy
state. The present tariff is not very palatable with the Governor of
Maine. The Governor of Massachussetts, in his message this year,
gives a highly flattering picture of the prosperity of that State.
An article published in the " North American Review," treating
with great minuteness the repudiation question, and exhibiting the
" State Indebtedness" of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Mississippi,
Michigan, Louisiana, Indiana, and Illinois, appears likely, from the
tone in which it is written, and the talent which it displays, to shame
the defaulters into honesty, if anything can.
In Congress the reception of abolition petitions has been again dis-
cussed, but in a better temper than :usual. The attention of that
body had been called to the existence of some difficulties with Por-
in consequence of some of the provisions of the tariff being at
variancegtual with existing stipulations.

In the Senate, when the resolution of Mr. Simple, advising that a
notice be given to the British Government, in accordance with, it is
said, [existing treaties, that the United States' Government would,
after the expiration of a year, consider the treaty in relation to the
Oregon territory at an end—several Senators took occasion to say
that they would vote for the resolution.

Letters received at New Orleans state that the Commissioners ap-
pointed to arrange the differences between Mexico and Yucatan had
returned to Vera Cruz, and that matters were in a train of satisfac-
tory settlement.

The exchange on England was 108} to 109.

- -
Viscount Glentworth, we regret to state, continues
most seriously indisposed, the symptoms of his disorder af-
fording great apprehension to his noble relatives. His Lord-
ship is attended by the most eminent members of the faculty.

had been withdrawn, as a dangerous invasion of the right
of trial by jury—( Hear, hear)—and of the challenge
on behalf of the Crown of every Roman Catholic,
as a practical repeal of the Catholic Emancipation
Bill.—( Hear, hear.) They moreover complained of it as an
affront to the whole Roman Catholic body, and they prayed the
House to institute an inquiry on the subject, and to adopt such
measures as would remedy the evil already inflicted, and pre-
vent the recurrence of such a serious evil in future.—( Hear; )

sideration of the Government, and at a very early period of
the session a measure would be provosed upon the subject.

THE Public are respectfully informed that the
Warehouse tbr the Sale of the above 'PATENT IIItUSIIES Is
now opened, where the various kinds applicable to the patent may
be obtained. Also, wholesale and for exportation—Hair Brushes,
for their penetrating properties and pleasing action, which are highly
recommended, and allowed to be a. decided improvement--Clothes
Brushes, for their flexibility and conformity to the shape in their use,
KS well as preserving the nap of the finest cloth—Horse Brushes
(truly the groom's friend) ; this brush stands unrivalled, it k diffi-
cult adequately to describe the advantages obtained by its flexibility
when in use. The Flesh, Shoe, Stove, and other Brushes, possess
great advantages over the ordinary stilt backs, for it will be found
• that all brushes hitherto made wear out at the extremities, leaving
little of the middle worn, whereas the PATENT FLEXIBLE-BACK
BRUSHES wear alike throughout.

THE THEATRES.
DRURY-LANE.:

Her Majesty and Prince Albert, ittended by a numerous suite, ho-
noured Drury-lane Theatre with their presence on Thursday. The
performance selected for this auspicious occasion consisted of BaWe's
opera, the " Bohemian Girl," and the Pantomime. Her Majesty
frequently testified her approbation of the music, and expressed her-
self delighted with several of the melodies which are intersper ed
throughout the opera. The ebullitions of loyalty were both loud and
frequent, even to the interruption of the performances ; but
these were checked by the sudden departure of her Majesty
at the close of the opera. Her Majesty and the Prince,
however, re-entered the box at the commencement of the panto-
mime, and this re-appearance excited the audience to a fresh explo-
sion of cries for " God save the Queen." At length her Majesty
acceded to the cordial manifestations, and came forward to bow her
acknowledgments to the vast crowds who thronged every portion of

impersonation of Carlotta Grist, and retired shortly after the salta-
tory display. Her Majesty appeared in excellent health and spirits,
and did not seem at all affected by her fatigue at the opening of the
Parliament.

A man, in digging a trench at Pagny-sur-Moselle,
a few days back, struck on an earthen vase (which was un-
fortunately broken), containing 2,400 medals of the 13th and
14th centuries. Some are smaller than the rest, and bear the
figure of a bishop wearing his mitre. On the other side is a
cross, with some characters around. On the larger ones, on
one side is a number of heraldic signs, and on the other a
large cross. On some may be seen the words " Signum Dei
vivi," and on some of the smaller I OH, the initials of Jean
d'Apremont, Bishop of Metz. Amongst these pieces were
found 11 struck with the effigy of John Count de Maine,
afterwards King John of France, made prisoner at Poictiers ;
six pieces of St. Louis, six of Jean d'Apremont, Bishop o
Metz in 1227 ; and two of Jacques de Lorraine, Bishop o
Metz in 1239.
A young fellow from Magdalen-street, named
George Fox, was convicted of cruelly ill-treating a cat, in

There were others (not in custody) in company with the
prisoners at the time, who were participators in the brutal
act of baiting a cat with a ferocious dog, and afterwards
swinging it round by its tail, and smashing its head with
their whole force against a.tree, merely for pastime. Prisoner
was fined in the fullest penalty, forty shillings, and ex-
penses eight shillings. In default he was committed to the
county house of correction, for fourteen days. The Court
extremely regretted they could note inflict a severer punish-
raeut upon ranch a brute.—Chehneford Chronicle,

LORD MORPETH.

In another part of our paper will be found a lengthened
report of the proceedings of the free-trade ,banquet at Wake-
field on Wednesday. Very great interest was attached to
this meeting in consequence of the attendance of Lord Morpeth.
The Noble Lord's withdrawal from public life for the last two
years has been a source of deep regret, as well as a real loss, to the
Liberal party. The circumstances attending Lord hiorpeth's
temporary retirement were such as to increase the attachment
which his countrymen already so strongly felt for the many emi-
nent qualities which distinguish his character ; and kis re-appear-
ance amongst them was by many hailed with the greater enthusiasm,
from its being regarded as the preliminary step to the re-occupa-
tion by his Lordship of an active position in the ranks of his party.
And we trust this anticipation may not be wholly disappointed.
The speech of Lord Morpeth is another indication of the progress
of opinion upon the subject of free trade. Like the letter of Mr.
Gibson Craig, it is one of the facts that denote this pro-
gress, as it were, by stages. In 1841, Lord Motpeth was
a strenuous advocate of an eight-shilling fixed duty.
Such a compromise as that his Lordship now thinks
is wholly unattainable. He thinks, however, that even still a com-
promise is desirable ; and, notwithstanding the adverse opinions of
the audience by which he was surrounded, he candidly avowed this.
But, he added, if within a year a low fixed duty is not adopted, he
i would then join the League in demanding a total repeal. And thus will
it be with the whole party which is now in favour of a fixed duty.
The operation of the same causes which have converted a sup.
porter of an eight-shilling duty into an advocate of a flue-shilling
duty, must induce the advocate of the five-shilling duty, by and
by, to join the ranks of the total repealers. However desirable
may be the adoption of a low fixed duty, as a compromise of a
question upon which two great interests of the nation are at issue,
or however just, in point of principle, it may be regarded by many,
yet all men are coming, by degrees, to feel that neither upon the
ground of justice, or still less of expediency, can such a setticn col
be hoped for, after the obstinate resistance of another year. The
combination against it is becoming too strong. It is, day by day,
absorbing into its ranks some new element of power, which, like
theconditional adhesion of Lord Morpeth, renders its final triumph
ouly a question of time.—Chronicle.
