THE MADIAT,

In reply to a question from Mr. Kinnaird, Lord J
RUSSELL said there was no objection to lay upon the'
table all papers connected with the case of the Maniai.

. .
The CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER obtained leave
to bring in a bill to authorize advances from the Con-
solidated Fund to discharge money borrowed for metro-
politan improvements on the security of the crown'
estates, and to charge the same on the London-bridge
Approaches Fund.
Some routine business was then disposed of, and the
house adjourned.

DRIED FRUIT TRADE.—The advices from Greece with
reference to the forthcoming crop of currants continue to
be uniformly favourable. The worst symptoms have as.
yet manifested themselves at Cephalonia, which island
was the least affected by it last year.

THE REV. RICHARD LEE, of St. Dunstan, Stepney,
has lately disappeared. His defalcations amount to up"
wards of £ll,OOO, and a composition has been offered to
his creditors of 6s, Bd., in the pound.
A FATHER'S APPEAL.—The following touching adver-
tisement appeared in the Times of Thursday :—" Eleanor
Clara.—ln trouble—Oh ! come to me. I will not alloy
you, my child, to be thus hunted about by designing
women, who impose upon your generous heart. No mo-
ney shall be spared to promote truth and justice. Call
these country people nn more your relatives, for my sake.
Your friend and father, T. J. D."
THE LANCET states that insanity is on the increase
among the working classes in the parish of St.Marylebone,
and that none but those whose duties bring them in con-
tact with the sufferers, can form an idea of its fearful
spread. There are now no less than 494 chargeable to
the parish. In St. Pancras, insanity also prevails to an
unusual amount, especially among the humbler classes.
A COURT MARTIAL was held on board the Waterloo,
120, at Sheerness, on Monday, Captain the Hon. Montag°
Stopford, president, to try a seaman belonging to the
Boscawen. lie had repeatedly deserted his ships, and
entered the army, from which he had also deserted several
times. The Court sentenced him to four dozen lashes and
twelve months' imprisonment.
THE NURSERY AND THE SCHOOL—The care of the
Hair in infants and young children is, by inexperienced
mothers and nurses, too little regarded. No mistake car,
be more injurous than the supposition that neglect in this'
particular can continue with impunity. The seeds of
strength or weakness are laid in the nursery ; and the ma"
jority of the fine flowing ringlets, or bald heads of after
years, are traceable to this early period.—OLDRIDGE'
BALM OF COLUMBIA, long celebrated for its genial one
invigorating qualities in promoting and restoring the
growth of the Hair, is peculiarly fitted for application
during the tender years of infancy and childhood ; and no
nursery or school, where personal advantages are held i°
any estimation, should be without it. For cleansing the.
Hair, the Balm is most valuable, as it effects the essentis,
object on the first application, and immediately remove 9
the scurf. For embellishing the Hair the Balm is pre'
eminent. A smooth, rich and beautiful appearance, vcith
a gentle waive, or glossy ringlets, full, luxuriant, and
graceful, being the admirable results of its use. Sold by
all respectable Chemists, Perfumers, and Stationers'
Price 3s. 6d., 65., and 1 ls, per bottle ; no other prices are
