CURE OF CONSUMPTION,

W. WILSON, of Driffield, was affii d for eight months with
the above complaint, reduced to a ate of excessive weakness,
so that the last four months o he time he was compelled to
keep his bed half of each day. edical aid, as usual, was re-
sorted to without deriving enefit to ground a hope of ever
being restored, so much ebilitated, and without appetite, he
was given up I.y two do ors. Hearing of the benefits resulting
from the us., of Woes ll's Pirs, he obtained a box, and gave
them a trial. While., akin g the first few doses he felt ill. When
he had taken a box in daily doses of from four to eight pills he
felt a little better; the use of two boxes he went to work, three
boxes quite restored him to the enjoyment of what he despaired
of ever obtaining, good health. All inquiries will be duly an-
swered.

CASE OF ASTHMA AND DROPSY ON A WOMAN AGED

SEVENTY,

MR. WORSDELL,

SIII,—I have been afflicted for a great length of time with
difficulty of breathing and water in my chest. So distressing
Was my situation that, on arising in the morning, I frequently
thought I could not survive msny minutes. My daughter has
wept by my side on observing my painful and afflicted state :
my mouth gushing with blood, and the difficulty I had in
breathing, brought floods of tears into her eyes. I have spent
large earns of money in obtaining various kinds of medicines,
but seldom realised any benefit from their use. A pamphlet of
yours describing the nature of disease, and how it must be re-
moved, was left at our house, and I felt resolved to give your
Vegetable Pills a trial. and after taking a few boxes, I am happy
in stating that my health and strength are so far restored that I
can work in my garden, and sometimes go with my husband to
Doncaster market.—Yours, sincerely.

WAKEFIELD CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 28.

We have a good su ply of Wheat to-day, the finest qualities
of which are a dull sale, at barely last week's prices, while
other deseriptions must be noted fully Is per qr. lower. Barley
continues in moderate request and fully maintains its value.
Oats and Shellings are steady both in price and demand, but
Beans have been taken of freely, at an advance of is per qr.

HULL CORN MARKET, JUNE 25.
At this day's market we bad a fair supply of English Wheat,
which obtained the rates of this day se'nnight, and the few
transactions which took place in foreign Wheat were at about
last week's prices; in bonded nothing doing. Barley, Beans,
and Oats maintain our last quotations, but the rain has given
a little check to the speculative demand for all spring Corn.

SELECTIONS.

TWO FLAILS AND A CUCKOO.—An old farmer in
Hampshire, who was very rich, and whose silly neigh-
bours were persuading him to have his daughter taught
music, said, "Na ! talk music indeed ; gi' me two flails
and a cuckoo." I dare say that this saying was as old as
the English language. The two flails make a very pretty
sound at all times. The voice of the harbinger of summer
is also delightful; but here was the idea of wealth most
aptly associated with that of pleasant sounds. The cuckoo
never comes until old May-day ; and two flails going in
the same barn at that time indicate that there is a good
store of grain in the barn at that distance from the pre-
ceding harvest, and that therefore the farmer is rich.—
Cobbett.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-WEDNESDAY.

Mr. BRIGHT presented a petition from Rochdale,
signed by 6,000 persons, against the proposal to raise ano-
ther troop of yeomanry cavalry in Lancashire.
Mr. M. MILES presented several petitions from places
in Somersetshire, praying the house to take measures to
prevent the agitation now carried on by the agents of the
Anti-Corn-Law League, and praying for protection to
British Agriculture.
Lord IN GESTRE, and other members, presented a great
number of petitions from various parts of the country,
against any alteration of the present corn-laws.
A number of petitions were presented by different mem-
bers against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill.
The second reading of the Juvenile Offenders Bill was
postponed for a fortnight.
The other orders of the day having been read, the ad-
journed debate on Mr. Villiers's motion relating to the
importation of corn was resumed.
Mr. O'BRIEN, at considerable length, opposed tlyt mo-
tion and amendment.. He trusted the house would con-
tinue the existing protection to British agriculture.
After a lengthened debate the house divided, when the
motion was defeated by a majority of 328 against 124 ! ! !

HOUSE OF LORDS.-TRURSDAY.

At the request of the Duke of WELLINGTON the Earl
of GALLOWAY postponed the third reading of the Brothels
Suppression Bill to Thursday next.
The Presbyterian Marriages Bill passed through coin-
mittee.
A great number of petitions were presented against the
Dissenters' Chapel Bill, and the Bishop of LONDON inti-
mated his intention of objecting to it upon its return from
the House of Commons. He presented a petition from
Manchester and Salford. This petition had been accom-
panied by a communication from Mr. Bunting, who
stated that a similar petition, signed by fifty-two clergy..
men, by fifty-four dissenting ministers, and twenty-six
magistrates, had been forwarded to a member of the other
house, who had taken no notice of it. The Right Rev.
Prelate presented similar petitions from Chester, Wizen,
and several other places.
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved for returns con-
nected with the Irish Poor Law, and entered into some
statements condemnatory of its general working.
The Duke of WELLINGTON replied that some of the
evils complained of had been put an end to, and that in
the course of a short time a bill having reference to the
whole question would be brought forward for their lord-
ships' consideration.
After a few remarks from Lord MOUNTCMIHEL, the
returns were agreed to.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—qtIURSDAY.
A discussion, in continuation of a former one, took
place relative to the ineligibility of Mr. E. Yorke to vote
