With Notes, and an Introduction containing a Biographical Sketch
of the Author; and two Papers on Specific Gravity. including an
Account of the various Hydrostatical Instruments which have been

By J. H. BAVERSTOCK, F.S.A.

The Process of Brewing (as the Compiler justly observes in his
prefatory remarks) " is a science depending for its success upon
certain and invariable principles, and is not a mere mechanical
operation, performable by any menial and illiterate persons whom
it may he convenient to employ in it ; and it is, in consequence, be-
ginning tu'rank as high among the arts and scientific manufactures
as the enormous duties which it pays entitles it to among the reve-
nues of the kingdom."

HENRY'S CALCINED MAGNESIA continues to
be prepared with the most scrupulous care and attention, by
Messrs. THOMAS and Wicusst Horsy, Manufacturing Chemists,
Manchester. It is sold in bottles, price 2s. 9d. or with glass
stoppers at 4s. sd. stamp included, with full directions for its use,
by their various Agents in the Metropolis, and throughout the
United Kingdom ; but it cannot be genuine, unless their names art
engraved on the Government Stamp, which is fitted over the cork
or stopper of each bottle. Of most of the venders of the Magnesia
may be had, authenticated by, a similar Stamp, Hmar's A*OMATLC
Smarr of VINZCAR, the invention •of Mr. Henry, and "the only
genuine preparation of that article.

TO Mrs. JOHNSON, 28, York•place, City•road.—
Madam—To behold the consolation afforded to suffering In-
fants by your AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP, in cues of
Dentition must convince every feeling Parent how essential an
early application of such invaluable medicine is to alleviate the suf-
ferings of children thus unhappily situated. Having found your
American Soothing Syrup to afford such great ease and comfort to
a child of mine, who experienced the most acute sufferings while
teething, so much so, that its senses absolutely left it, and it was
supposed that Death was about to relieve it fromits anguish, tiU
recourse was made to your medicine, which, on its first application,
wrought a Wonderful change, and by repeating the same, four
double teeth were brought through in two days, and the child was
gradually restored to health. Any information on this circumstance
will be gladly given by, Madam, your most obedient servant,
J. ELLEN.
China and Glass Warehouse, 15, Tabernacle-square,
Old-street-road, October, 1824..

This inestimable medicine is to be had wholesale and retail as
above, and of aU principal medicine venders in town and country,
at 2s. 9d. per bottle.—None are genuine ■aless signed on the stamp,
with Mrs. Johnson's own hand-writing.

LEAKE'S GENUINE PILLS, justly famous for
curing, in all its stages, the VENEREAL DISEASE.—
One small Pill is a dose, and the taking of one Box, in a recent
case, will soon convince the patient of the certainty of his speedy
recovery. Nothing can be better contrived, more safe, or more
convenient than this Remedy, for such as are obliged to go journies
or to sea, as it needs no confinement nor restraint of Diet; and
sixty years experience (in an extensive practice) has preyed that it
will effect a Cure when repeated Salivation and all other methods
avail nothing. For the Scurvy and other Chrenica (Disorders,
this Medicine has not its parallel. Upwards of 40,000 persona
of both sexes have been radically cured of the above cruel disor-
ders, within the last eight years. Prepared and sold by the sole
Proprietors, T. TAYLOR and SON, Members of the Royal Col-
lege of Surgeons, at their House, No. 9, New Bridge-street, in
Boxes of only 2s. 9d. each, duty included.—N.B. Two back
doors, and Lights in the Passages at night.—They are also sold,
by their appointment, with copious directions, at the Toy-shop,
103, Oxford-street; Mr. Disborough's, No. 7, Fish-street-hill,
nearly opposite the Monument ; and by one Person in every con-
siderable Town in Great Britain and Ireland. Advice gratis to
Persona taking the above, or other of the Psoprietor's Medicines.

CERTIFICATRS—M.mcm 15.

C. Cotton, Bursgem, Staffordshire, innkeeper. S. Gregory, Man-

spade-manufacturer.

Mr. CA LVERT opposed the Bill. Last year the Bill was pro-
moted by eighteen or Monty Members of that House, each of whom
were proprietors of #50,000 in the projected undertaking ; he
should move as an amendment, that it be read this day six months.
Mr. MANNING opposed the Bill.
Mr. WALLACE supported the Bill, on the ground of fair and
free competition. It had been said that the charges in the other
Docks were lately diminished ; but that was the strongest reason fur
erecting these new Docks, as the diminution took place only in
consequence of the apprehension of competition—(Hear).
Sir JOSEPH YORKE was afraid, if the Right Lion. Member,
the President of the Board of Trade (Mr. Wallace) could not obtain
a patient hearing, it was impossible for him to expect such a favour
at that critical conjuncture, when Honourable Gentlemen were
more anxious to get to a good dinner, than to make a good speech.
He should, however, oppose the Bill ; for, at the present moment,
when so many projects were set on foot—one for bringing Salt
Water from Brighton, and another Fresh Air from Bovior—
Airs from Heaven, and blasts from Hell,"—be must say, he
thought none of them more uncalled for than the formation of the
St. Catherine's Dock.
Mr. H. SUMNER supported the Bill. His sincere opinion was,
that there was plenty of occasion for ail the Docks on the River
Thames, and he thought there never was a measure for which there
was a better foundation than this—(Hear).
Mr. GREN FELL observed that the only opponents of this Bill
were parties interested in rival undertakings. If the Bill were
pressed to a division, be had no doubt an overwhelming majority
would decide in its favour.
Mr. PLOMER opposed the Bill.
Mr. MONK said, he did not object to the principle of the Bill,
but he objected to the place which had been chosen for these Docks.
The selection they had made obliged them, to carry into effect their
schemes, to annihilate a whole parish containing 10,000 inhabitants..
Mr. Alderman THOhIPSON assured the Hon. Gentleman, that
two-thirds of the inhabitant. of the parish be had adverted to, had
already consented to removal.
Sir R. FERGUSON supported the measure. Many ships were
obliged to unload in the middle of the River, on account cf the high
charges of the London Docks. It was not to be borne that these
should be a spirit of monopoly in the City of London, when his
Majesty's Ministers were doing all they could to introduce an op-
posite system.
Mr. Alderman HEYG ATE said there was no monopoly in the
Port of London.

Mr. ELLIS. said, the people of Dublin had not room in the
River to conduct their business, and ha was instructed by them to
support the BilL—The House then divided :

Similar Petitions were also presented from Clifden, Bristol,
Bury, Wakefield, and Liverpool.
Mr. HONEY WOOD presented a Petition from Hythe, pray-
ing for a repeal of the duty on Sea-borne Coals.
Similar Petitions were presented from Woolwich, Bridport,
Oalthamptot., Liandovery.and GiUingham.
Mr. M. DAWSON presented a Petition from the Barony of
Eliogharty, County of Tipperary, in favour of the Catholic Claims.
Petitions against the Catholic Claims were presented from the
Parish of St. James, Bristol.
Sir F. BLAKE presented a Petition from Barwick, praying for
the admission of Scotch Whiskey into England.
The above Petitions were severally read, and ordered to lie on
the table.

Mr. W. WIIITMORE postponed his motion on the Corn Laws
till the 19th of April.
Mr. GRATTAN presented a Petition from three Parishes in
thy County of Kildare, against the Bill now in progress through
the House, relating to Associations in Ireland.—Ordcred to lie on
the table.

Mr. F. PALMER moved for leave to bring in a Bill for the
purpose of empowering Magistrates at Quarter Sessions, to effect
transfers between counties of insulated parcels of land, for the
more convenient administration of justice.
Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that he did not mean to oppose the
introduction of the Bill, though he would not pledge himself to
support the Bill when introduced.
Mr. PALMER explained; and after a few words from Sir
J. B. MoaLeato and Mr. N. CALYZILT, leave was give to bring in
the Bill.

Sir R. HERON obtained leave to bring In a Bill to amend the
laws relating to Sewers.

PARISH VISTRIIIa IN IRILAND.
Sir J. NEWPORT moved for leave to bring in tl Bill
to amend the laws relating to Parish Vestries and As-
sessments in Ireland, with a view to controul the ex-
penditure of all parochial rates. At present there was
no controul over these rates. During the reigns of King
William and Qeeen Anne, the Catholics had the same
power to vote at vestries as Protestants. In the reign
of George I. that power was taken away. The conse-
quence was, that a few Protestants could tax the Ca.
thnlics at will. The parish vestries had in the dispe.
sition of funds, and the allowance of salaries, gone be-
yond the amount allowed by law. This was the case
in Thutles (Tipperary County), where the rates paid by
the Catholic parishioners were expended in the embel•
lishment of Protestant Churches. Another case was
that of Wexford, where the salary of the sexton. for
ringing the bell, was raised 101. per annum, because
there was no bell—(A laugh). A retired clerk received
a compensation on account of his being removed.--
Under the head of Ordinaries, Eso was taken from the
charge of the Corporation, because they had no funds,
and thrown on the parish. The next case was that of
Castlecomer, in Kilkenny. The carpenter's bill for re-
pairing the Clerk's house was 1.12, and interest on the
bill E'l 2s. This carpenter was named William Taylor,
and he was clerk, carpenter, and schoolmaster—(l`icar).
