slr,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring under
a nervous deatbess, so much so at times as to be almost incapable of
hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, Prom whom I de-
rived, scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friend,
to try your excellent Eye Snuff. I accordingly procured one of your
4s. 4d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefit, so
much so that I sent for two more, which, having used, I found my
hearing completely restored, and I have not been deaf since. I should
mention that the time I commenced taking your Eye Snuff was in
April last, and have continued taking it since.-1 am, Sir, your obe-
dient servant, W. H. ADAMS.

To Hr. W. firimatone.
Any quantity of Eye Snuff can be forwarded through the Genqral
Post, by sending money orders. A 2s. dd. canister, with directiOns,
will coot 30., and so on in lib proportion.

Mr. ►IATTY, ever anxious to retain the patronage that has been
so bountifully bestowed on this Establishment, feels a degree of plea-
sure in announcing the greatest combination of Foreign Equestrian
Talent that ever appeared in the Metropolis, he having engaged the
whole of M. Tournaire's Company of French, German, and Italian
Artistes, and the entire Stud of highly-tutored Horses. The Com-
pany- emlorace the following distinguished Professors :—M. Benoit
Tournaire, M. Ferdinand, M. Francois, M. Ernest; Signors Anossi
and Rinaldo; M. F. Blatt; Mesdames Louise Klatt, Ilubor, and
Popowitz ; Popowitz, the Frencn Clown ; Herr Ilubor, the Dutch
Grotesque. This talented Corps will make their First Appearance
on Whit Monday. A new Dramatic Spectacle, written expressly for
this Establishment, by Mr. Moneriefr, the plot of which is taken from
the works of Eugene Sue, will also be produced on the same
occasion.

consequence, overtaken thoae time-honoured and admi-
rable institution's, the universities of Scotland.

Mr. RUTHERFORD showed that, by the Acts of 1619
and 1707, it was declared that no parties should be
capable of filling any office in the universities of Scot-
land, without having first taken the oath of allegiance,
subscribed the "Declaration or Confession of Faith,"
and signed a formula submitting themselves to the dis-
cipline of the Presbytery. The Right Hon. and Learned
Gentleman had good reason to say that these Acts bad
never been enforced in all the universities, nor, in their
universal bearing, at any one of them. Let us pause,
for a moment, to reflect how irreparable a loss the
world of science and discovery would have sustained bad
the revelations and researches of such minds as HUTTON'S
and DALTON'S depended on their implicit acceptance
of formalised dogmas as old as the " Solemn League
and Covenant." As inconsistency in practice is always
the concomitant of an attempt to establish the uniformity
of arbitrary rules, the requirements of these Acts have
followed that law of moral compensation. In some of
the Universities of Scotland they are enforced only as to
the Professors ; in others only to the office-bearers.
Could there be devised a more logical proof of their
combined impropriety and inefficiency, than this fact?
In what respect can the air of Edinburgh modify the
necessity which exists in the Marischal College at Aber-
deen for an office-bearer to sign the formula and sub-
scribe that declaration? If it be necessary for a Pro-
fessor at Glasgow to submit himself to the discipline of
the Presbytery, and attest, by his subscription, a Decla-
ration of Faith, how comes that obligation to cease when
you are within reach of the breeze that blows off the
Frith of Forth? Or, take the converse of these liabili-
ties ;—place Edinburgh in the room of Aberdeen, or
Glasgow in that of Edinburgh—is the discrepancy one
whit the less ridiculous? But here is the fatal fact:
the absurdity is not only recognised, but consecrated by
the usage; and not only is the usage consecrated, but it
is exacted under penalties no less severe than the lia-
bility to forfeiture and expulsion, in case of refusal to
comply with such exaction. We learn from Mr.
RUTHERFORD that in the University of Edinburgh,
which has certainly produced the most distinguished
men, this notable law has long been in abeyance, and
never enforced at all against any lay professor. His
object, therefore, was to do away, by his Bill, with the
necessity, for the future, of any lay professor's signing
either the Confession of Faith, or the formula of sub-
mission to the Presbytery, not touching merely the
theological chairs, but applying this provision and pro-
tection to those only devoted to literature and science.
Whilst he felt it might be very necessary that those
youths who were being brought up to the Established
Church should be instructed in divinity, according to the
doctrine and rule of that Church, by teachers who were
bound by that rule and doctrine, he did not see than ne-
cksity for a similar restriction as to those other teachers
,rwho hall nothing to du with divinity. It is honour-
, >•,16.4ie Sotottish professors that a large majority of
I`'`o•l4the Universities had expressed their con-
• that the requirements in question should
t.'done away with. If it be not, as Mr. Runinn-
,
, ORD argued, carried, the Universities must break
.up as fearfully as the Church is breaking. Exclusive
tests will work over again their old results in the
destruction of the tyranny and folly which exact them;
the tyranny and the folly which, a year ago, were not
ashamed to do their utmost to oust Sir DAVID BREWSTER
from St. Andrews, "as if (as it was well said) he had
not distinguished the college ten times as much as the
college could have distinguished him." We close with
the most pithy anecdote we have met with for some time,
for the digestion of your unyielding, uncompromising,
unreasoning advocates of the exclusive beauty and bene-
ficence of Church Establishments, and who denounce as
timidity and folly all concessions to—all conciliation of
Dissent. The Episcopalian sections of the Scottish
people comprise, professedly, the wealthiest landowners
and proprietors in Scotland. Some years ago they were
eager to establish an Episcopalian College, but up to
this time have not been able, with all their exertions, to
collect more than 18,000/ in all that time for such a pur-
pose. What have those done who have separated from
the Established Church ? They were anxious to found
a College for their body. They asked, were there not
enough among them who could subscribe 1,0001. each ?
In less than three weeks 22,000/ were subscribed by
twenty-two individuals, who were principals in this sepa-
ration. We add no comment on the fact.

HIGH WATER AT LONDON-BRIDGE THIS DAY.

Madrid journals of the 27th ult. have been received.
On that day a grand levee was held at the Palace, which
was numerously attended. The concordat, it is said.
will be signed on the 27th at Rome, and on the same day
M. CASTILLO will officially present to the POPE his cre-
dentials as Minister Plenipotentiary to the Holy See.
Thus the relations between Spain and the Court of Rome
may be considered as entirely- re-established.

The QUEEN was expected to leave Madrid for Barce
lona about the 12th instant.

The Three per Cents were done on the Madrid Bourse
on the 26th ult. at 35i, at sixty days; the Five per Cents.
at 2.5 i, at sixty days ; and the Debt without interest,
at 8i at sixty days.

The Paris papers are chiefly occupied with the cere-
monies observed on the occasion of the KlNG'sfite' and
the debate in the Chamber of Deputies on the Jesuits.
The POPE'S Nuncio, in the name of the Diplomatic
Body, presented an address to his Majesty, in which
he said :—" Your constant efforts, with those of other
Sovereigns fur the maintenance of order and peace, will
continue to merit the benediction of Heaven." ToKhi ch the
congratulations
grreapt
leadt
0: •rTs you bring to me in the
"I receive withy sa-
ti,ei the h
name of the Diplomatic Body. I rejoice with you
c
that my constant efforts, so happily in accordance
with those of the other Sovereigns, have contributed
to maintain the peace of the world. GOD will con-
tinue to bless them, and I have the fullest
confidence that v,e are .
destined to a long enjoyment of
this great good, which is so precious for all na-
thri4. I am affected by those wishes, the expression of
which I love to receive through you, and I thank you
for the sentiments you testify for the prosperity of
France anal the happiness of my family." To the
address of the Archbishop of PARIS, in his name and
that of the clergy, he made the following reply :
" My first desire is, as you know, that religion should be
surrounded with all the .veneration that is due to it. This
is it at once the duty of kings and the interest of mankind.
I take pleasure in acknowledging how greatly the wisdom of
the clergy of Paris has oftentimes seconded me in this great
task. Brought up under its eyes, I am happy in testifying
to it the remembrance of this, which I preserve, and to thank
it for the sentiments and good wishes which you in its name
have expressed for my family and for myself."
On Friday M. TIIIERS made a speech in the Chamber
of Deputies relative to the Jesuits and the affairs of the
Church, which lasted for two hours, and was listened to
with deep attention by a full House and a most crowded
audience. At the conclusion he called upon the
Cabinet to execute the laws, and dissolve a religious
congregation which was the sole cause of the divisions
that had lately manifested themselves in the Catholic
community. The Minister of Public Worship
admitted that the laws of the kingdom authorised
the dissolution of all congregations existing without the
sanction of the Government, but though the Govern-
ment had such a power, the :present was not a fit case
for its application. " The Jesuits had acted imprudently;
but it could not be seriously pretended that public tran-
quillity would be perilled unless the order was dispersed.
The clergy, he regretted, had imprudent friends in the
Chamber, who wished it to believe that any step taken
against the Jesuits would be the commencement of
measures against the Church in general ; but it
might be certain that the State would ever
consider its protection a sacred duty." M. DUPIN
maintained that the law, until repenled, ought to be
carried into effect. " The POPE himself had not hesitated
to declare the order a dangerous body. The Govern-
ment knew its duty, but it could not fulfil it without the
aid of the Chamber ; religion was honoured in France,
but only religion as represented by her bishops and
curds, and the cutting off from it such eccentrities as
the Jesuits, would go far to strengthen its cause."
The Chamber then rose, and, at the sitting on Satur-
day, the discussion was resumed by M. BERRYER, who
contended that such laws did not exist ; " but," conti
nued the speaker, " what I wish to demonstrate is the
incredible extent to which such a principle might be
carried—what I claim is the plenitude of the right of
the Catholic Church—what I ask is whether our Govern-
ment be strong, enlightened, and honest enough to en•
dure the liberty that exists in England and in the United
States? And since I have just named England, remember
what has just passed in that country. In England there
is an established religion, and the Primo Minister of
England has just demanded and obtained a grant for
the maintenance and extension of a religion differing
from that predominating religion. This is liberty in its
plentitude.—(Clamour and interruptions.) The question
of the Catholic congregations is eminently connected by
the Catholics with the liberty of conscience, and to the
free exercise of their worship. With them a cloistered
life is a pass to perfection. To suppress it is to attack
their liberty. But let us not talk of dogmas." The
Attorney-General rose to reply, and was left speaking.
The following summary of the opinion of the press on
this subject app
ears in Galignani's 21Iessenger :
" The Debats gives credit to DI. Thiers for the moderation
that he displayed, and says it will not suspect him of having
brought forward this subject with a view to annoy the Go-
vernment. The clear and explicit' declarations of the
Minister of Justice in reply to hi. Thiel's, must, says the

Dthats, be regarded as satisfactory' on this question. If ,
the Ministry would wish to retract, it cannot. That the ex-
istence of the Jesuits in France is illegal is a point which no
longer admits of doubt.' The Globe says it agrees with M.
Thiers in thinking that the Jesuits are dangerous to public
tranquillity, but not on the same grounds as he has taken.
The Jesuits are dangerous, says the Globe, because the people
dislike them, and, therefore, are estranged from the
clergy. The Constitutionnel gives a glowing account of the
speech of the ex-President of the Council and of the effect
that it produced. Of the speech of the Minister of Justice, it
observes that it is difficult to understand what he really
means, but he seemed to promise that a negotiation for the
shutting up of the Jesuit establishments in France should be
entered upon with the Pope, and that whatever should be the
issue of that negotiation the French Government would not
the less adopt the measure in question. The Courrier
Francais said the speech of M. Thiers displayed a seriousness
and moderation which were in good taste. It was one of the
most remarkable speeches, says the Courrier, that M.
Thiers ever pronounced ; as to the Minister of Justice, never
did he make a more wretched effort to produce effect.
The National repeats its arguments against the Je-
suits as a political body, and as forming the corps d'elite
of the army of counter. revolutionists, of which it has so fre-
quently spoken, and expresses the highest admiration of the
way in which the attack was made upon them by M. Thiers,
who, it says, constantly commanded the silence, and capti-
vated the attention of the Chamber. The Quotidienne and
the France believe, or wish to make the public believe, that
the speech of M. Thiers was a failure. The Quotidienn•,
after alluding to the sensation which the announcement of
this attack upon the Jesuits had produced, and the exces-
sively crowded state of every part of the Chamber of Depu-
ties to which the public are admitted, says—' A drama was
expected, but M. Thiers with his little face and croaking
voice disenchanted the brilliant crowd.' "

One of the most important features in the last accounts
from Canada is the rapidly increasing disposition shown to
extend public works, and form railways and harbours of pro-
tection on the St. Lawrence. We were previously advised
that a project for the construction of a railway from the St.
Lawrence to the Atlantic had been broached, and that a
Bill for that purpose had passed the Legislature,
and had received the assent of the Governor.
Many of the Canadian merchants here were to
be asked to join those in the colony in the under-
taking, the advantages of which cannot be too highly
estimated as a means of developing the resources of
British North America ; but as this and other great works
will give full employment to thousands of emigrants from
this country, a northernly terminus of the Provincial line
was to be established at Portland. It is to be hoped that
the surplus capital here will be directed to the carrying works
of this kind to the principal British colonies, as well es to the
East Indies, where a most ample field exists for extending
internal communication. The rapidity with which schemes
for continental railways are got up here ought to make
monied men very cautious how they part with their cash,
because if the plans do not succeed, their deposits will be
pretty well sweated before the companies will be solved.
We find that a suggestion we made some time since of calling
for a deposit at the time_ shares are written for has been
adopted. This will effectually put a stop, or nearly so, to
persons applying solely for the purpose of selling their letters
of allotment. •
Papers to the 12th ult. have come to hand by the Washing-
ton, from • New Ycrk. Money was rather tight, and tem-
porarily the stock market was affected by this circumstance.
From Rio de Janeiro there is intelligence to the 11th of
March, and from Buenous Ayres of the 22d of February.
The -political news is not important. The blockade by
Buenos Ayres was being more rigidly enforced, and no
vessels would be allowed to trade with the ports of that re-
public unless they could show that they had not touched any
where within the Monte Videan territory.
Some of the foreign railways evidently do not afford satis-
faction to the inhabitants of the districts for whose advan-
tage they are profes,edly concocted here. It is stated in ac-
counts from Belgium that the Louvain and Jemappe station
at Havre is a quarter of a league from the town, and that of
Jemappe, connected with the State railway, is four leagues
from Namur, and four from Charleroi.
In the City this morning very many anxious inquiries
have been made to learn the full extent of the dreadful ac-
cident at Yarmouth, but there are not any facts of import
ance known beyond those which appear in the daily papers.
In the British Securities there has not been much busi-
ness done this morning. Consols for the Account have fluc-
tuated from 98% to 98%, and for Money from 98% to 98% ;
money is rather in request, but the rate of interest has not
been advanced, as far as we are enabled to learn. The pre-
mium on Exchequer-bills is rather heavy at 555. Not a bar-
gain has been made in India Bonds. Bank Stock has fallen
to 209, and India Stock, for the Account, is 2901,x. The
New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been in fair re-
quest at UV% %.
The quotations of the. Foreign Bonds were very steady this
morning. The Spanish Five per Cents. have been done at
30% ; the Three per Cents. 411/2 • and the Passive Bonds
at 7%. The Portuguese Converted have touched , 671, to
6714 for the Account. Russian are up to 118. Dutch Four
per Cents. 97%. Mexican Stock fur the Account has been
steady at 371, to 37%. Columbian at 15%.
The Railway Share market has been very varia-
ble to-day, with a considerable amount .of business in
progress. The pPincipal alterations have been in the
Great Western, which have receded, the London
and Birminghams, which have advanced, as have the Newry
and Enniskillen. In other shares not much change has oc-
curred. The French lines of railway are looking better—the
demand for the best lines being on the increase—especially
for the Bordeaux, Toulouse, and Cette, the Great Northern
of France, and the Lyons lines. The National Bank of Ire
land Shares have been quoted at par.
