London.

HOUSR OR LORDS, APRIL 8.
Counsel wet* heard In part, respecting the Stole arise Of
" The Governors of lierioes Hospital v. Robs."
The LORD CHANCELLOR noticed, that as Wednesday
was the first day of Term, it would be out of his power to heat
Appeal Causes on that day. In consequence, the farther hue
log on the above cue was adjourned till Friday next.
Atone o'clock the House adjourned during pleasure, it heist
understood the LoanCearreuxou had important official business
to attendat Carlton-house.

Lard RRSKINF., adverting to certain motions, which itt the
course of the last Session had been made by himself, and by a
Noble Friend of his (Earl Grey) then absent, for return or do-
cuments to thew and ascertain the number of persons who had
been arrested preVious to indictment, on charges of Libel, and
seeing on the table a partial but incomplete supply of the rt.,
quired information, felt it his duty again to call the attention of
their Lordships to a subject which in his opinion was of the most
serious and extensive importance. Ile earnestly deprecates',
and he was sure his Noble and Learned Friend on theWoehaekt
as well as the other Noble Peers who heard him, would Live
him ample credit when he said so, the licentloas :shun s to which
the Press, had beet too keret ili directed, aid by which its
essential virtues had been injured and degraded. It was, at the
sane time, his firm persuasion that the law, as it et, 4 at pre-
sent, called strongly on then Lordships and on the. Legislature
for revision and correction, especially in that part of the existing
system which authorised inferior Magistrates to commit men
irregularly. With that impression fully and strongly ore his
1, he felt it incumbent on him to apprise their Lordships,
that unless the Noble Friend to whom he had alluded should
previously bring f..rward a similar proposition, he sher.:4l, t•.t
some co:we:dent period of the Sessions, introduce a motion to
that effect.
The Marquis of CAMDEN, Viscount Memn.e, and Marl
Selene, severally presented Petitions against the Additional

Mr. LY'FTELTON noticed the delay in presenting Returns
of Class Duties.
Mr. LUSIIINGTON intimated that the Returns might be
presentee perhaps that evening. There had been no unnecessary
delay.
' Alderman WOOD presented several Petitions from Water-
men, Wherrytnen, and Lightermen, on the Thames, who felt
that their interests would be affected by the building of the pro-
posed' Bridge at Rotherhithe. They wished in that event for
compensation: but as their sole employment consisted in piying
on the River, they prayed against the Bill passing.
Mr. WROTTLSLEY took the opportunity of suggesting go
the Members for London, the propriety of bringing in a Bill to
increase the Fares of the Thames Watermen. Every one who
took a boat must knew how unequal the hire was to the labour.
It seemed better to remedy an evil in that way, than by check-
ing -great public works.
Alderman WOOD said, that the Court of Aldermen had
already the power to do that. Ile could not say exactly will it
had not been done. Ile admitted that the fares were too low ;
but this point did not apply to these Petitioners, who sail that
the bridge would take away their business altogether.—Ordered
to lie on the table.

COMPOSITION, instead of the GENUINE BLACKING
prepared by DAY and MARTIN, they have adopted a new
Label in which their address,

tion to this, and the difference of the type, which is unlike all letter
pre./ will enable purchasers at once to detect the imposition.

COPY-RIGHT.
Mr. J. SMITH presented a. Petition from Messrs.
Longman, Rees, Hurst, Orme, and Brown, who car-
ried on a very great business in London, as book-
sellers, respecting a Bill now before the House re-
garding Copy-tights, and stating that the delivery of
the Eleven Copies, from the time the Act passed in
1814, had actually cost to them 30001• or nearly so.
That from the great burden of the delivery, they
have declined the publication of some expensive
works, and especially Baron Humbolt's Non-descript
Plants of South America ; that they are already ob-
liged to leave another copy at the Printer's, by the
Sedition Act; that although the Rev. Mr. Todd pre-
sented front himself one copy of his edition of John-
son's Dictionary to Sion-College, they demanded
another copy under the Act ; that the English Uni-
versities pay no duty on paper, and can therefore
undersell Booksellers, and are now so printinq an
edition of Scapula Lexicon, against one publi,hed
by the London Booksellers. They prayed the lime
to consider the subject of Copy-rights.
Ordered to lie on the Table, and to be printed.

HOOPING COUGH CURED without inward Medicine.
ROCHE'S ROYAL EMBROCATION.
ltir ANY Thousands of Children are cured annually
IVA. by this remedy. On the first attack, an immediate appli-
cation of ROCHE'S EMBROCATION will prevent the com-
plaint taking any hold of the constitution, and a few times may
completely cure. In the most obstinate cases perseverance will
produce the desired effect ; and no Remedy can be so well cal-
culated for Cbildren as this, for it requires no medicine to be
taken inwardly. In common Coughs this Medicine is equally
efficacious, and may be relied on for Men, Woman, and Chil-
dren, as safe and effectual. In no case can this medicine be
genuine unless signed on the wrapper by J. Ruche. and every
stamp the name of E. Edwards, 66, St. Paul's Church Yard,
(who is the only Wholesale Vender) engraved thereon.
Price as. and .41 2s. per Bottle.

FOR THE GRAVEL AND STONE, LUMBAGO, &c. '
lIICKMAN's PILLS are allowed to be the most
successful Medicine ever discovered for effectually remov-
ing, and preventing the future recurrence of all those Disorders
which arise from an imperfect action of the Urinary Organs; as
Gravel and Stone, Lumbago, Pains in Back and Loins, and Sup-
pression of Urine. It combines cherr.izally with the secreted
fluid, dissolves and entirely carries away the gritty matter there
formed, and prevents its future tomatien, by strengthening ge-
r.erally the whole Urinary System: thus delivering the suffering
patient from the excruciating tortures of those diseases without
violence or injury to the Constitution.
These Pills are composed of the most innocent ingredients, and
require neither confinement nor restraint of diet during their use.
No greater recommendation can be offered of them than the
fact of their having possessed for many years past the highest
reputation that has ever been acquired by any Medicine, and in
particular the countenance and approbation of many of the
Faculty.
Sold in boxes at fts. 9d. and 11 s. (by the Proprietor's .ippoint-
meat) by BUTLER and Sons, Chemists, dcc. No. 4, Che.spsidss,
corner of St. Paul's Church-yard, Loudon, and No. 34, Sack-
Ale-street, Dublin ; also by the Vetidtxt of Medicines in every
Minim the Kingdom,

Mr. PEEL stated, that the opponents of the Rill
for regulating the working hours of Cotton Manu-
facturers, had hitherto contet:Jed, that the House
was not possessed of suflici:nit e,sidence to shew that
those hours were excessive, and their consequences
injurious to the persons employed. The opinions
hitherto given, had been represented as the specula-
tions of Physicians residiaF is Le.:-.don, and who
could have int.! no (Tpartunity of proparly investi-
