TO THE PUBLIC,

AS bold FALSEHOOD will frequently mislead,
where less daring deception would not be believed, we feel
called upon to notice a Placard, extensively posted, and also an
Advertisement, signed by a Young Man, who has been a Shop-
man up to SATURDAY, and who styles us an " unknown
accusing us of deception, and asserting that Hollis and Co.'s
Stock is still in the hands of the Bankruptcy Court.
We know not whether this youn:. mtn, who now, for the first
time in his life, finds himself pl, •d in a responsible situation,
is aware, as he ought to be, t we have been now for a num-
ber of years in business, ; have, not by puffery and low arti-
fice in trade, but by h. est industry and straightforwardness
'a business, succeed in ramifying our extensi- Establish

ments thniugbre town. They are to. be found in Saint
James's-street, rent Charlotte-street, Vauxhall-road, and,
lastly, at

.NO. 8, DALE-STREET

So much, then., for being an unknown firm !
We beg to assert that we did buy, and have sold, the whole of
the Stock HOLLIS and CO. were possessed of, in No. 8, Dale-.
street, at the time the seizure was made by the Court, and we
hold a receipt for payment of the same, from the Official As-
siniee, which can be seen by applying on the Premises, No. 8,
DALE-STREET.

We cannot understand the motives the parties-can have in
making such direct false statements, which can serve no legiti-
mlte purpose.

Haiini succeeded to the business of HOLLIS and Co., No.
8, Dale-street, and sold oft' their BANKRUPT STOCK, we
have now to state to our old Customers, Consumers, and the
Public generally, that we are now prepared to supply them with
TEAS p^3 COFFEES of

_N ttm of our own selection, and we certainly
feel much pride in soliciting a trial, for there never was a time
when this description of produce was so low in price, and we
are in a position to give our Customers every satisfaction.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY

Mr. EVANS moved the issue of a new writ far the bo-
rough of Derby in the room of the Right Hon. E. Strutt
and the Hon. E. F. L. Gower, whose election bad been
determined to be void.
Mr. MACKINNON seconded the motion.

Sir J. HAMMER repeated the same objections to the is-
su6 of this writ which he had urged a few days ago against
the issue of the writ to the borough of Bewdiley. He
rose, however, to implore the Government to take into se-
rious consideration the present dangerous state IA things
in so many boroughs; for at this moment it required,
more than anything else, amendment and reform.
Mr. Hums submitted that the election committee had
made their report, he had no doubt, for the purpose of
suspending the issue of the writ • and in order to carry
their intention into effect, he should move that the writ
for the borough of Derby slio-tild not issue forthwith.
The Earl of LINCOLN concurred in the objections to the
issue of this writ; as also did Lord John Russell and Sir
Robert Peel. After a long debate, the House divided on
Mr. Hume's amendment, when the numbers were—Ayes,
199 ; noes, 43 ; majority in its favour, 156.

So the writ was not allowed to issue.
Sir G. GREY moved that the report of the Crown and
Government Security Bill be brought up. This having
been done, a smart debate ensued, and the report was re-
ceived:
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then moved that
the House should resolve itself into a committee of the
whole house on the Copper and Lead Duties.
Sir C. LEMON moved, as an amendment, that a select
committee be appointed to inquire into the effect of the
existing duties on the importation and production of cop-

per ores.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER resisted the
amendment, and explained the reasons which induced him
to save the trade in copper and lead ore by sacrificing a
falling revenue and by proposing that reduction of duties
which he had described at length in bringing forward his
budget.
Mr. Carew, Mr. Robartes, Mr. Wyld, Lord G. Ben-
tinck, and Mr. Henley, supported the amendment; and
Labcrachere, Mr. Cardwell, Mr. Muntz, Mr. Schole-
leld, Mr. Ricardo, Mr. Wilson, and Mr. Gladstone op-
posed it, and spoke in favour of the schedule of copper
duties proposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
The House then divided, when the numbers were—for
the amendment, 35 ; against it, 102; majority against
the amendment, 67.
The House then resolved itself into the proposed com-
mittee. The resolutions were then agreed to.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-TUESDAY

Lord BROUGHAM took occasion to state, with reference
to his application to the Provisional Government of
Trance, in order that he might become a French citizen,
that his sole object had been the preservation of his pro-
perty in that country, and without any desire of divest-
ing himself of his rights as a British subject.
The MAncruis of LANSDOWNE stated, in answer to a
question from Lord Beaumont, that many persons who
had been found in Dublin engaged in firing at a mark for
the purpose of military training had been arrested.
On the report of the Election Recognizances Bill,
which bad previously gone through committee,
Lord BROUGHAM moved a clause proposing to enact
that the bill should not be retrospective, or affect any
vested interest, or decide any question now pending in
any court, or in either House of Parliament, the house
dividing, for the amendment 21 ; against it, 16.
Lord MONTEAGLE 'complained of the course pursued
by the noble and learned lord, as it had been on the as-
surance that it was not his intention to divide the House,
that several peers favourable to the bill had gone away.
He should to-morrow move that the House do reverse the
decision to which it had come. _ . .

The Earl of MALMESBURY confirmed the statement
made by the last speaker, which was strongly and empha-
tically denied by Lord Brougham, amidst much laughter
and cries of order, after which the subject dropped.
The Crown and Government Security Bill was brought
up from the Commons and read a first time, and the
Removal of Aliens Bill a third time and passed.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TUESDAY.
Sir G. GREY moved the third reading of the Crown and
Government Security Bill.
Mr. HUME moved as an amendment that the bill be
read a third time that day six months.
The amendment was supported by Mr. F. O'Connor
and Mr. P. Wood, and resisted by Mr. Headlam, Mr.
Adderley, Mr. Seymer, and Mr. Mitchell.
Sir. It. PEEL, in giving his support to the bill, adverted
to the necessity which existed for such a measure, con-
sidering the peculiar state of the times. It was not a mea-
sure directed against the great body of the people, whose
noble conduct had, on a very recent occasion, proved the
strength and universality of their loyalty. It was a mea-
sure which they had a right to call for at the hands of the
Government, inasmuch as it was the duty of the Govern-
vernment to protect the lovers of order from those dis-
turbances into which other countries had unhappily fallen.
He wished it to be distinctly understood, however, that
he approved of the bill as a temporary measure. Advert-
ing to the present condition of France, the right hon.
baronet again emphatically deprecated any interference
with the affairs of that country, the experiment now
going on in which, although in his opinion one which
would result in great injury to the working classes, was
one to which it was desirable to give a fair trial. The
right hon. gentleman then indulged in some banter di-
rected against Mr. Feargus O'Connor, expresstng a hope
that should that occur towards which the honourable
member had expressed such indifference, the accession to
the throne of the Pope, the Devil, or the Pretender, he
would possess, whichever was the successful candidate,
the unqualified confidence of the Crown.
Mr. BRIGHT again expressed his uncompromising op-
position to the measure, which would yet prove itself as
damaging to the Government as it was oppressive and
insulting to the people. He begged the Government and
the House to observe that Sir Robert Peel approved of it
as a. temporary measure, a course which, as far as the
authority of the right hon. baronet went, fully justified
the opposition which he (Mr. Bright) and others had
offered to it in all its stages. To whom did the House
and the country owe the temporary character of the bill ?
Was it the Government, or to those on the opposition
benches who had throughout given it such ready support ?
Neither the right hon. baronet nor his friends had sug-
gested the change which made the bill temporary instead
of permanent. The Government had been reluctantly
driven into the alteration by the opposition which had
been offered to the bill.

Lord J. RUSSELL briefly recapitulated his former rea-
sons in favour of the measure. Adverting to the present
state of Ireland, the noble lord contended that the trea-
sonable practices going on there were greatly exaggerated,
the loyalty of the great mass of Irish people being unim-
peachable. He then gave notice that the Government
would, immediately after the Easter recess, introduce
measures into Parliament for the extension of the Irish
franchise' and for the general improvemement of the Irish
people. To a repeal of the union he was unalterably
opposed ; and should such repeal ever be attempted by
forcible means, he would resist them so long as he had
strength or life left in him.

The House shortly afterwards divided, and the num-
bers were—For the amendment, 40 ; against it, 295 ;
majority against, 255.
•The bill was then read a third time, and was immedi-
ately afterwards passed amid cheers.
