GAS METERS.

T MPORTANT to GAS COMPANIES and CON-
SUMERS of GAS. All the inconveniences arising from
Gas Meters getting out of action, and ceasing to register (to
the great loss of Gas Companies and serious inconvenience to
Consumers) are prevented by using THOMAS EDGE'S IM-
PROVED METERS, with Patent Lever Valves. These
Meters are a; proved of by all the London Gas Companies, and
will entirely supersede those made in the common way with
guide wires.

hung with black and surroundsd by tapers, and the priests in
their mourning robes were standing at the altar, ready to com-
mence their prayers for the dead. This solemn and mournful
aspect was the first view the Duke de Nemours beheld of his
re-entering that palace which, only a few days before, be left
with confidence and happiness. At ten o'clock the Royal Fa
mily went to receive the Count de Paris aed the Duke de
Chartres, who arrived attended by the Marchioness de Fins.
The young Princes are both in good health, and were carried
by the King to the apartments prepared for them. They were
unaware of the irreparable loss they had sustained, but even at
their early age they could not but be affected at the deep traces
of grief depicted in the countenances of their Royal relations,
and, indeed, of every one around them. At one o'clock the
Duke d' Aumale returned to Courbevoie, being called away by
the duties of his regiment. At two the King held at Neuilly a
Council of Ministers, which sat till half-past four. Their Ma-
jesties did not receive any one, but the palace was crowded by
persons of all ranks, arriving to inscribo their names as making
inquiries. The Queen of the Belgians is expected on Sunday.
Up to ten o'clock last night no news had been received from the
Duchess de Nemours and the Princess Clementine, who were
on their way to Plombieres, where it is expected they would
arrive at five o'clock yesterday morning.

NOTICES OF MOTION.

Mr. HUME postponed his motion relating to Flag
Officers till next Supply day.
Mr. BANKES gave notice that he should in Com-
mittee on the Parish Constables' Bill, move a clause
providing that all children under a certain age,
charged with any offence, should be taken to the lock-
up houses instead of to county gaols.
COMPROMISE ELECTION COMMITTEE.
Mr. ROEBUCK brought up the Report of the
Compromise Election Committee.
PARISH CONSTABLES' BILL.

Mr CHILDERS wished to ask the Secretary for
the Home Department whether this Bill would be
brought on to-morrow, and if so, whether it would be
at a late hour? As this would interfere with the Rural
Police Act, he thought it was important that the
subject should be discussed.
Sir J. GRAHAM said it would depend on the
progress made in the Poor-law Amendment Bill. It
was certainly his fixed intention to proceed with the
Bill. The lion. Gentleman was mistaken in saying
that this Bill would interfere with the Rural Police Act,
on the contrary, this measure would be made ancil-
lary to that Act.
Mr. CHILDERS said it was of great importance
that the Bill should be discussed, therefore, if it was
brought on to-morrow, he should move that it be re-
committed.
SUDBURY DISFRANCHISEMENT.
Mr. LEADER moved that leave be given to Air.
Roebuck to plead as Counsel at the bar of the House
of Lords in support of the Sudbury Disfranchisement
Bill.

the rental may be increased to

And amongst the agremens connected with Grafton, it being with.
out the annoyance of an overgrown house upon it, is one of some
import. To conclude, it may be well to observe, that the rents are
paid most punctually ; and Lavater has marked conspicuously on
their countenances that the word abatement never entered into
their imagination,

" We are able toannuunce that our negotiations at Paris hays

On Thursday evening, M. Pradier was admitted into the
chapel, and took casts of the face, hands, and feet of the illus-
trious corpse. M. De Calheux, director of the Royal Museums,
superintended this operation. The features of his Royal High-
ness were not at all altered by death. They still expressed his
natural benign serenity. The work was entirely successful,
and there is no doubt that M. Pradier will produce a perfect
resemblance of the lamented Prince, of whom there is only one
truly faithful portrait, that recently finished by M. Ingres,
which is deemed one of the master-pieces of that great artist.
Queen Christina, in the evening of Thursday, came from
MaJamison to condole with the Royal Family. Her Majesty,
with delicate consideration, would not enter the court-yard in
her carriage, but alighted at the gates, and walked from them
to the palace in evident emotion. She was immediately re-
ceived by the King and Queen.
The Globe has the following :—" The Queen is raid to have
related that the Prince Royal came on Tuesday evening to
Neuilly to take leave of the King and his family, and, as he was
departing, she asked him if she should not see him again the
next day, before he set out on his journey, to which he replied,
Perhaps.' Was this a presentiment ?"

state, that this Company find it the most effective for the clean-
ing of crooked Chimneys of all the Machines in use ; and that
their men have succeeded in cleaning many Chimneys with it,
which could not otherwise have been done, unless by introduc-
ing Soot-doors, or by alterations in the Chimneys, a process
not only attended with expense, but considerable inconve-

MINES AND COLLIERIES.

The Earl of GALLOWAY presented several petitions
from places in 'Yorkshire and elsewhere, in favour of
Lord Ashley's Bill.
The Duke of HAMILTON presented petitions on the
same subject. These petitions dict•not come from the
men or Irvin the mine-owners, but from the women
employed in the Scotch mines. The petitioners de-
nied that the work in which they were employed was
oppressive, and they prayed the House Y.iot to deprive
their, and their children of their only means of sub-
sistence ; also a petition to the same eiket front the
workers in a coal-mine in the county of Stirling. He

THREE MOST CAPITAL DAIRY FARMS,

ENTIRELY EXEMPT FROM TITHES, AND VERY
MODERATE OUTGOINGS.

It has been observed they are daisy farms, inasmuch as some of the
best Gloucester cheese is yearly traced to Grafton; but a purchaser
may at this present writing see some of the most

called to mind that

and gives promise of so much Cyder and Perry this season, that it
may fairly be inferred it will improve " THE WAYS AND
MEANS" of the honest trio who compose the happy tenantry
upon Grafton, and who (with ancestors of ancient date) have for
many a long year reposed in profitable delight in our village. It
would be quite impos.ible for a purchaser to select three more re.
spectable or more talented yeomen than Messrs. Izard, Crump, and
Martin. The estate consists of

LIFE ASSURANCES.

The additions made to the life policies granted by this Cor-
poration for the last seven years vary from 41 to 65 per cent. on
the premiums paid, and average 14 per cent„ or two per cent.
per annum on the sums assured—a result, it is believed, more
favourable than any other Company (mutual or proprietary )
has hitherto accomplished, when the low rates of premium
charged by this Company are taken into consideration.
The next division of life profits will take place in December,
1846, being an interval of five years, 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
year=.

To facilitate loan transactions a reduced scale of rates with-
out profit has been adopted. The rates and other particulars
may be ascertained at the above offices, or at any of the Com-
pany's Branch Establishments throughout the kingdom.

The Committee continued the scrutiny this day into
the votes to which the objections were made on the
ground of removal. The vote of a man named John
Lakey occupied nearly the whole day. Mr. Talbot
argued in support of the\ vote, and Mr. Cockburn for
the objection. The room was cleared, and the Com•
mittce decided that the vote should be struck off. This
leaves the numbers equal on each side.
The Committee immediately adjourned till eleven
o'clock on Monday.

Colonel SIBTLIORP gave notice that on the third
reading of the Poor-law Bill he would move an amend-
meat to the effect, that from and after the passing of the
Bill, the Board of Commissioners and the Assistant-
Commissioners he discontinued, and that the Guardians
of the Poor have the sole management of the poor in
their respective unions.
