PARLZAMENTAILY.

In the House of Peers Lord Beaumont presented a petition
from the Raja of Sattara, and announced his intention to bring
forward a motion on the subject, were something not done in
favour of the Raja.
Several Bills were forwarded a stage by their Lordships,
but not Lord Radnor's Bill for repealing the Corn-law.
The Noble Earl moved the second reading. and sup-
ported his motion by a pithy speech. The Earl of Ripon
moved that the Bill be read a second time in six
months. Lord Kinnaird supported the original motion, but
the Earl of Ripon's amendment was carried without a di-
vision. We have now, we presume, had the last Corn-law debate
of the session, and, chiefly in discussing that subject, the House
sat till Nine o'Clock.

In the Commons Mr. Mackinnon obtained leave to bring in
a Bill to improve the health of towns by prohibiting the inter-
ment of bodies within them. Mr. Cowper supported the
motion and no person opposed it.
Sir Francis Burdett moved for a Committee to investigate
the negotiations between the Government and Mr. Warner.

Sir H Douglas spoke against Mr. Warner's invention, and
proved that Mr. Warner had evaded giving to the public the
proofs that he possessed the great secret of which he boasts.
Mr. Brotherton read a letter to prove that Mr. Warner bad
made the same promises at Oporto as here.
Sir Robert Peel explained the course the Government had
adopted, and opposed the motion. Sir F. Burdett pressed it to
a division, when it was supported by 2, and rejected by 72.
In reply to Mr. C. Buller, the Chancellor of the Exchequer
said the Report of the Commissioners to inquire into the Ex-
chequer Bill affair was ready to be laid on the table, but he was
not prepared to say, till he had read the Report, what measures
he should take.

Lord Ashley obtained an address to the Crown to direct the
Commissioners of Mines further to inquire into the appren-
ticeships in them.
A Bill was brought in by Sir J. Graham to confirm the
incorporations of certain boroughs, and indemnify parties who
may sustain loss.
Mr. T. Duncombe moved an address to her Majesty to dis-
charge Mason, the Chartist lecturer, and others, at present
confined in Stafford gaol.
Sir J. Graham opposed the motion, which, after a short de-
bate, was lost.
The House was counted out at a Quarter before Eleven on
Mr. Hume's motion to lay Papers before Parliament concern-
ing the Raja of Sattara.

SUMMARY OF NEWS

AND
titsbitic eptitton.

" Who runs may read."

FOREIGN.
The Overland Mail, with news from China, India,
Affghauistan, Tripoli, and Malta, arrived yesterday,
The details will be found very interesting,:as given in an-
other part of The Sun.
The Paris papers do not contain one word of news in-
teresting to an English reader. They are all occupied
with a discussion that took place on Monday in
the Chamber of Deputies relative to the election of
a M. Pawels for Langres. This gentleman is
charged with adopting, on a small scale, the English
style of managing an election. He did not venture
on such bribery and corruption as we have lately had so
many instances exposed in our House of Commons, but
he sent his carriage for some of the electors to come to
the poll ; he employed friends to canvass for him in the
arrondissement, and he established a journal to wmite
him up as a fit and proper candidate. Notwithstanding
these sins, the majority of the bureau considered the
election of M. Pawels as good and valid. The chamber,
however, took a different view of the question. Under
this impression a part of the chamber proposed that an
inquiry should be ordered, but the Ministers and the ma-
jority of the bureau ebjected to this extreme course, and
recommended that the questson should be adjourned fur
further consideration. A rather violent discussion took
place, but the result of the whole was that the Goveen-
rnent prevailed, and the case of M. Pawels was postponed
for further consideration.

TROOPS roil CIIINA.—The Lady Flora, com-
manded by Captain Robert Ford,had been taken up at Madras
by the Indian Government, for the purpose of conveying troops
to China, in order to strengthen the forces under Sir Henry
Pottinger, and was to sail on the Bth of March. Lord Ellen-
borough, the new Governor-General of India. attended by the
heads of Departments, visited the Lady Flora in the Roads,
and his Lordship expressed his satisfaction of the ship's quali-
ties and accommodations. She would convey from between
500 to 600 troops.
MONEY-MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE.—
Money was very plentiful in the City this morning, and the
man at the crossing near the Bank carried off a large sum at
the clearing. 11ohair stock was not very buoyant, but gloves
were easy at Is. 6d. a pair and upwards. Company's tea was
wishy-washy, at a spoonful for each, person, and one for the
pot ; but coffee rose rapidly when placed upon a hot fire. Coals
were nominally heavy, but were found much lighter on being
weighed; and eggs, though they looked promising yesterday,
opened very badly this morning. In spices there was very little
done ; but a party suffered greatly who had been keeping too
close an eye to pepper.—. Putsch.

ISLE OF WIGHT BANKING
COMPANY.
(PROF[ OUR CORRESPONDENT.)
At a meeting held at the Bugle Inn yesterday, the forma-
tion of this Company was finally agreed to, in shares of 1001.
each; and of the 60) shares 300 were taken by the gentlemen
prer..nt : 150 by Messrs. Blashford and Roe, 10 by Thomas
Sewell, Esq., 10 by Thomas Cooke, Esq , 10 by John Eames,
Esq., 10 by W. Squire, Esq., 11) by Alfred Mstc, Esq., 10 by
Edward Way, Esq., 20 by A. Clarke, Esq. ; others took five
and three each. Messrs. *Roe and Blashford acted in the most
liberal manner, gave all their interest in the present bank to
'.the new establishment, and agreed that any accounts that the
present Company might consider doubtful should be kept by
them, or a guarantee to be given for the full amount. Of the
1 clear profits 5 per cent. to be shared amongst the Proprietors
Messrs. B. and R. to take half the remainder for conducting
the business ; the remaining half to be then divided amongst
the Shareholders. There can be no doubt that the whole
amount will be subscribed this week, and that the new bank
will be opened before the close of the month.
Tut rnons'er of the deep, which was found
in Totland Bay, near Yarmouth, Isle of 14 fight, by the Coast
Guard, has been claimed for the Crown by the Vice-Admiral
of the Isle of Wight, and ordered to be sold by public auction
on Friday (this day); it is 72 feet in length rum 33 in girth,
and a male, or, as the seamen term it, a bull whale. The
boilers, used by the barque Ariel in her whaling voyage
are now at Cowes, and it is expected that some speculators from
that port willTurelykse this fish, and take it there.
The St. Helena Reginieni arrived' at Albany Barracks on"
Friday and Saturday, to the no small delight of our good folks
of Newport, who had not seen such a pleasing sight for some
years before.

Arbroath, 2d April, 1842.
My deer Sir.—l have written you now to make you
acquainted with my having started for these burghs, in
the vacancy offered by Mr. Chalmers' retirement. I
have no doubt but you are already aware of that circum-
stance,' and I have to beg your indulgence for the neg-
lect; seeing this is my thst.essay at this advanced period
of life, I trust you will grant it. I only started after
having waited some time, during which no candidate ap-
I eared in the field, of either party ; and drealtd, if lon-
ger delayed, a Conservative might have shown himself,
though I don't think with much prospect of success.
In the movements that have taken place in the burghs
lately, there is (and particularly in Forfar) a strong feel-
ing in your favour.. If I had thought there bad been
any chance of your coining forward, I am the last per-
son on earth to have anticipated you, and you should most
certainly have had my support ; but as the matter stands
my retiring would probably create a great confusion,
which might lead to serious loss to the Liberal interest.
When I started, it was at the urgent pressing of some
friends—Mr. Chalmers being one of them—and upon
the principle of danger, that by further delay
might acertvi to the independence of the burghs, that I
did at last start. I can assure you I feel uneasy in the
situation I am placed in, and the having to attend Par-
liament and living in London at a distance from my
family, would be to me a great sacrifice. Still as a
matter of duty, I have offered myself to the electors—
have met hitherto a kind reception, and will fight the
good fight. A split in the Liberal interest is much to be
deprecated, as it might place in jeopardy the indepen-
dence Of the burghA, which I know you have as much at
heart as I have. I shall be glad to hear from you by
return of post how you feel on the subject.
I remain, my dear Sir, yours sincerely.

NICKEL INK or JOLINSTONE'S PER-
MANENT WP ICING FLUID, under the patronage
of the Academy.of Sci ease .s, Paris.
W. PEACOCK (by-,api ,ointment) sole Agent for the above
incomparable Fluid, respet •tfully invites the attention of the
commercial public, and th e literary and fashionable circlest,
to some of the paramount properties of the Nickel Ink. It
stands unrivalled for its de: irness and facility in writing, being
free from that gelatinoug deposit which clogs and corrodes
the metallic pen. As a it t•eventive of fraud in banking and
other commercial transact Si .ns, it pteseuts an important gua-
rantee, as it is indestrut jble (without injuring the surface of
the paper %by any of the ch. emical agents which destroy the
common inks. The colo ar o.f the Nickel Ink is a Seheeles
green, but it dries a vivid and p ermatient black—a striking con-
trast to the rusty black c f other inks and writing fluids.
Sold by W. Peacock, at 2, Ct irsitor-street, Chancery-lane

bottles, at 6d., ls., Is. 6d., and .2s. 6.1. each.

Low Rates of Premium.

In addition to the subscribed Capital of £300,000. the As-

of 1:50,000 per annum, yearly increasing, and an accumulating
Assurance Fund invested in Government and other available

The rates of premium are reduced to the lowest scale com-

the Company, thereby, in effect, giving to every Policy Holder
an immediate and certait Bonus without risk, in lieu of the
deferred and frequently delusive prospect of a periodical division

LIFE DEPARTMENT.

The additions made to Life Policies granted by this Corpo-
ration for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per cent. on
the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent on the sums as-
sured—a result; it is believed, far more favourable to the as-
sured than any other Company has hitherto accomplished, when
the low rates of premiums charged by this Corporation are
taken into consideration.
The next division of life profits will take place in December,
1846, being an interval of five )ears, and persons entering. be •
fore the Ist of August next will enjoy one year's additional
rating, and rank at next division of profits for five complete
years.

DIVISION OF PROFITS AMONG THE ASSURED.
This Joint Stock Company, established by Act of Parlia-
ment, without limited responsibility, affords the most perfect
security in an ample paid-up Capital, and in the great success
which has attended it, since its commencement in 1834.
In 1841, the Company declared an addition to the Share-
tockholders of. one-half of their Stock, and also added 21. per
Cent. per Annum, from the dates of their policies to those par-
ties who had insured with Profits.
The Premiums nevertheless are on the most moderate scale,
and only a moiety need be paid for the first five years, where the
Insurance is for life.
The amount of,bonus added to policies since the commence-
ment of the Society in March 1834, to the 31st December
1840, is as follows

THE PERFECT SUESTITUTE for SILVER.
CATALOGUE, with ENGRAVINGS (Gratis),
PO.STAGE FREE.—The celebrity of the rich and silvery
appearance and extreme durability of the material made ex-
clusl‘ely by ourselves, has induced many attempts to foist
upon the public the notortow-ly deleterious German Silver
under the gui-es of " Albata Plate," " Berlin Silver," Sec.
&c., against which wo especially warn them. Aided by an
eminent chemist, we have succeeded in purifying our material
so that acids do not :Sleet it ; it is now so well known and
appreciated that it is universally superseding silver in all its
uses. The genuine metal, which is more curable than silver,
can only be bad at our warehouses. It is the same through-
out, and can be engraved and made in all the various articles
that are in silver, from which it ran only he told by reference
