PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ: POWDERS.

JPRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, Liverpool, begs
• particularly to call the attention,of his Friends and the
Public to his improved Preparation of the very justly-cele-
brated article SEIDLITZ POWDERS, to form the SEID-
LITZ WATERS, which approach nearer than anything yet
discovered to the Chalybeate Waters of Germany. The style
of preparing PRIESTLEY'S SEIIMITZ POWDERS is peculiar to
himself, and combines scientific skill with great accuracy,
and although numbers of people acquainted with the business,
and others, have of late years attempted imitations, they have
invariably been found to be spurious compounds, neither pos-
sessing the agreeable flavour nor the medicinal properties of
the Seidlitz Waters.

Sold in boxes 2i. each, containing twenty-four powders, to
make one dozen tumbler glasses, and in tin cases 10s. each.
The latter are put up in a very eligible form for exportation,
or to use at sea, and will keep any length of time in all cli-
mates. Prepared and sold only by JOHN PRIESTLEY No.
64, Lord-street, where also may be had Seidlitz Powders in
Packets.

importance. It is of far greater moment than any
change of administration. It involves, not only the
present interests, but the future destinies of this great
nation. We are now called upon to decide whether we
shall avow ourselves to be a nation of practical infi-
dels or of professing Christians.
As a further motive to exertion in opposing this
scheme of national education, we would strongly urge
upon our readers the well-known fact, that it is a blow
indirectly aimed at the Established Church. The Pa-
pists and political dissenters have distinctly avowed
this. Let them only get in this wedge, and they will
speedily abolish the Church. If they can only per-
suade the legislature that it ought to show no partiality
" to any particular denomination or religious body" in

the matter of education, there will remain no reason
why any preference should be shown in the matter
of religion. If schools and schoolmasters should be
supported by the legislature in which Popery and Uni-
tarianism are to be taught, why should not chapels be
endowed and ministers be paid on the same principle ?

t therefore behoves the friends of the Church to be

up and stirring. Let them act up to their character
and profession as Protestants, by protesting against the
jesuitical scheme of Lord John Russell.

IMPROVED SODA POWDERS.

It has been observed, that the Soda Water, when kept in
jars, parts with its carbonic gas • that carriage of it to a dis-
tance has been attended with risk and considerable expense ;
and that from these inconveniences, its use has been confined
chiefly to large cities and their environs. To obviate these
objections, and to extend the use of this agreeable and effica-
cious Water, the ingredients for making it are offered to the
public.—Sold in boxes at Is. 6d. each.

LIVERPOOL CATTL

MARKET, MAY 20.

The number of Beasts at market to-day has been somewhat larger
than last week, and the quality generally pretty good, but we can-
not note any alteration in the prices, buyers having been rather
numerous. The supply of Sheep has been exceedingly limited—by
far the smallest number ever shown at this market at this season of
the year. There have been a good few Lambs, some of which were
of very good quality, and sold at prices rather less than last week.
Good Beef may be quoted at lid to 7ifd, with a few very tight Beasts
of a superior description at Bd, second quality 7d, puddling 6id,
ordinary at 64d. Good Wether Sheep in wool realised gd per lb.
clibbl Ditto ad, ordinary and Ewes at a shade less, and not a
Sheet to be purchased after a very early hour in the forenoon.
Lambs may be quoted at from 20s to 36s per head. There were a
few Pigs of only middling quality, which were sold at 44d to 4id
per lb. The market throughout may be considered a brisk one, as
all the stock was principally sold up at the close. Number of Cat-
tle at market :—Beasts got, Sheep and Lambs 2707, Pigs 47.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MAY 23.
The Cotton market still contiues in a very dull and inactive state ;
neither is there any prospect of improvement here, until better
accounts are received from the manufacturing districts. The sales
yesterday were about 1500 bales, and to-day 2000 bales, at rather
easier prices. The imports since the 17th.instant, amount to 31,028
bales, namely, 12,009 Bowed, 16,452 Orleans, 2059 Pernambuco and
Ceara, 382 Egyptian, 100 Peruvian, and 26 West India.

SCOURING DROPS.

The purpose of this useful article is for taking Grease Spots
out of Silks, Stuffs, fine Woollen Cloths, &c., without in-
juring the finest fabric or most delicate colour. The best
method of using the Scouring Drops is, to spread the Silk,
&c., on a table, with a clean napkin under it, and put a few
drops on a bit of new or very clean Flannel, and rub the spot
until it disappears ; then with a clean napkin rub it till quite
dry. It leaves no more stain than a drop of water, which
hanging a few hours in the air, or a few days' wear, will take
away.—Price is.

this insane attempt to revoke our Protestant constitu-
tion, and to stultify that revolution which placed the
House of Hanover on the throne.

And what is the pretence for introducing this new
scheme of education amongst us ? Are there not, at
the present moment, about a million of children in the
schools of the " National Society ?" Are there not
about 500,000 in the schools of the " British and Fo-
reign ?" And may not we add to these, at least 200,000
in the schools of the Wesleyans, and in other private
modes of instruction ? Why, then, is all this clamour
and outcry raised about the want of national educa-
tion ? It is raised solely to
.gratify a political party—a
party composed of Irish papists and English radicals—
who hate and envy the rapid growth and prosperity of
the schools of the church. It is raised at the urgent
request, or rather the command of Messrs. Wyse and
O'Connell, to introduce, as far as is practicable, the
Irish plan of education into this country, in the hope
of eventually bringing us under the dominion of the
Romish church.

TH MANX LOTTERY.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
SIR,—A paragraph appears in the Albion of to-day respect-
ing the Isle of Man Lottery. As the whole statement is the
production of falsehood and malice, and tending to injure a
public body, I beg you will contradict the same. The act of
Tynwald, of which he speaks as to putting down lotteries in
the Isle of Man, only applies to lotteries established after the
promulgation of the said act, and cannot, nor has it a retro-
spective effect acting as an ea post facto law. I need not
remind you that it would have shown common sense if the
editor of the Albion had examined the Manx papers respecting
the affair, before adopting the mischievous anonymous article
I have alluded to. As to responsibility or risk of the parties
who have purchased, or may hereafter be induced to purchase,
I have to observe, that if the intentions of the Isle of Man
Building Company Lottery trustees cannot be carried into
effect—of which no doubt exists, except in theminds of such
men as the Albion's correspondent—then I, as their agent,
am fully authorised to declare that all moneys shall certainly
be refunded. - -
I remain, sir, yours respectfully,
PETER ORMEROD.

FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA.

- _
In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro-
perties of Sarsaparilla. Root. To persons, therefore, who,
from various causes, would experience great inconvenience,
or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the
Compound Decoction, the Fluid Extract, which possesses
the advantages of portability and- of keeping in any climate,
will be found a most desirable mode of employing this much
esteemed Medicine.
Two teaspoonsful of the Fluid Extract, put into a wine-
glass full of water, makes a preparation equal in strength to
half-a-pint of the Compound Decoction, formerly prescribed
by the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Pharmacopoeias.
The diseases in which it has proved most beneficial are
those of the Skin ; such as Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive
Diseases, Secondary Symptoms, &c. arising from a diseased
state of the system at large. For removing Blotches, Pim-
ples, &c. from the Face, this Medicine has no superior.
The extensive use and high reputation of this preparation
has led to numerous imitations, disguised by the name of
Syrup, Essences, &c. The whole medicinal virtues of the
Sarsaparilla consist in its extractive matter, and it possesses
no real property in the form of essence, while the Syrup is
injurious to the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation.
Sold in bottles, at 4s. 6d., is. 6d.' 10s., 155., and 21s. The
larger sized bottles are the cheapest.

SCOTCH AND ENGLISH HOSPITALITY.
A NOBLEMAN OF RANK

will be quite at his ease ; although one of less pretensions,
and who desires only to locate at Tullichewen for a limited
season, will find the great desideratum of its not being in-
conveniently large. The recreation of
SHOOTING AND FISHING

are auxiliaries to an extent that few can parallel.
THE DEMESNE EXTENDS TO
FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SIX IMPERIAL

ACRES.

The cultivated land is underlet at about £6OOO a year, inde-
pendently of the woods, which are in high condition. The
mansion is suitably furnished. The aid of Gillow and Dow-
biggin, the celebrated artists in decorative furniture, has
been called in to complete it ; and the appendages, in pictures
and articles of taste and vertu, give to it a decided superiority
over all its neighbouring rivals. The offices are fully equal
to the most sanguine expectation. The moors do not merely
find excellent pasturage for the cattle, but ample scope for
those who would recreate in shooting black and red grouse,
woodcocks, and all sorts of game ; and if it be in " the
mind's eye" of a purchaser to add to the delight of shootini
to a still greater extent, " SEVEN THOUSAND ACRES
OF MOORS" are to be purchased close by

BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE.

Lord J. RUSSELL said, there was a notice on the paper for
to-morrow, of a motion by the hon. member for Birmingham,
that the house resolve itself into a committee to take into
consideration the petition (called the national petition) pre-
sented by him on the 14th of June. It was certainly desir-
able that it should come on early ; and, if the house had no
objection, it should be taken before the other orders of the
day.—(Hear.) Afterwards, the question of a uniform penny
postage would come on.
Sir G. SINCLAIR inquired when the Irish Municipal Cor-
poration Bill would be proceeded with.—Lord J. RUSSELL,
On Monday next.
Lord J. RUSSELL moved the second reading of the Cathe-
dral and Ecclesiastical Preferments Bill, which after a few
words from Sir R. H. INGLIs was read a second time.

LIFE IN THE WEST QUARTFR.

The Western Times contains an account of an appeal against
the decision of Mr. Kingdom, a magistrate of Exeter. The
appellant is a cobbler, named Crabb ; his wife became charge-
able to the parish, and Mr. Kingdom condemned him to a
month's imprisonment for having neglected to maintain her.
The appeal was grounded on non-liability, because his wife
had committed adultery. From what transpired before the
court, it appeared, that, some time since, Crabb and his wife
quarrelled, he beat her, and was for that offence sent to
prison. While Crabb was in prison, his wife received visits
of consolation from James Glendiling. When Crabb came
out of prison, he did not return to his wife, but the pair
agreed to seperate, and having, after much search, found " a
scholar" who could unbind the nuptial tie, the following
agreement was drawn up and signed :
" Dec. 10. 1838,—This is to certify that me amea crab do
year bye a agree by mutril content to be sold to a man by
the name of James Glendiling.
Wetes ouar hand.

James Glendiling.
Amea Crabb.
John Crabbe.
Witness our hands William Inch.
Jno. Taper.
Amelia was sold for a shilling, which was spent in half-and-
half and pigtail. It appeared, that, after the sale, the
appellant and his wife had again met and lived together on
good terms. The case occupied the whole day, and the Re-
corder did not deliver his judgment till the following morn-
ing. The Recorder observed, that no matter how the wife
was led into adultery, nevertheless by the act she forfeited
her legalzights, and the husband was discharged for ever
from liability. In consequence of the connivance of the
husband, he had lost all control over his wife, so that, though
they were still husband and wife until separated by a divorce,
he could not in any way control her, and she had lost all
legal right as a wife. The conviction was, therefore, declared
to be quashed. A case was required and given to be sub-
mitted to a superior court, and, at the request of counsel,
the elegant bill of sale was preserved in the hands of the
proper officer of the court, in case of its being considered
necessary that ulterior measures should be taken. Mr. Bird,
on behalf of the appellant, applied for costs, but the Recorder
said, that he unquestionably would refuse them, for a more
filthy or disreputable case he never sat upon.

Mr. Martin, one of the Masters in Chancery, has resigned.
Sir William Home is, we understand, to be appointed in his
place ; the salary is £2,500.
Lord Albert Conyngham and Mr. Villiers have announced
their attention to again offer themselves to represent Canter-
bury: Mr. Grote has denied that he had, as was represented,
any intention of contesting the borough.—Kentish Gazette.
We have advices from Martinique to the 29th ult. The
colony was tranquil. Freight was very scarce at 6 to 7
