HIGHLY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.

The Daily News of Saturday informs us that
" On Thursday evening a tea party was held at the King's
Head Tavern, in the Poultry, to which several gentlemen from
various parts of London and its vicinity were invited, to meet
Sir Joshua TValmsley, M.P., the president, and the council of
the National Reform Association, for the purpose of conferring
on the best means of organising the reformers residing in the
metropolis and the surrounding districts, and of carrying into
effect the resolutions of the National Reform Conference."

To what extent the worthy knight enlightened the " se-
veral gentlemen from various parts of London and its vi-
cinity" we are not informed ; but our contemporary
states that " the utmost unanimity and determination
prevailed during the sitting," the tea-drinkers, it is to be
presumed, finishing an extraordinary number-of cups in
token of their earnestness. We are a little astonished
that Sir Joshua does not come out a little more in his
proper sphere—the House of Commons. He is hiding
his lamp by exhibiting only at tea-drinkings in obscure
corners.

RgyI;AWDS' MACASSAR OIL.

The extraordinary efficacy, and happy amalgamation of its
PURELY EXOTIC MATERIALS, have rendered it justly renowned
throughout the world for its remarkable virtues in nourishing,
preserving, and beautifying the HUMAN HAIR. It insinuates
its balsamic properties into the pores of the head, nourishes
the hair in its embryo state, accelerates its growth, cleanses it
from scurf and dandruff, sustains it in maturity, and continues
its possession at healthy vigour, silky soften, and luxurious
redundancy, to the latest period of human life. Its operation
in cases of baldness is peculiarly active; so that, in numerous
instances wherein other remedies have been tried in vain,
ROWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL has superseded the ornaments
of art, by reinstating, in full plenitude, the permanent
_gifts
and graces of nature. In the growth of WHISKERS. EYE-
BROWS, and MUSTACHIOS, it is also unfailing in its stimulative
operation. For Children It is especially recommended, as
forming the basis of a beautiful head of hair, and rendering
the use -of the fine-comb unnecessary.—Price 35. 6d. and 7s. ;
Family Bottles (equal to four small), at'loa. 6d. ; and double

TAN, PIMPLES, SPOTS, FRECKLES, DISCOLORATIONS,
and other cutaneous visitations. The radiant bloom it imparts
to the cheek, and the softness and delicacy which it induces
on the bands and arms, render it indispensable to every Toilet.
To Ladies, during the period of nursing, and as a wash for

ENTOMOLOGY.--THE PRIZE ENIGMA.—The enigma
propounded by the editor of the Family Friend was the
subject of a very spirited competition. The total number
of competitors was three thousand eight hundred. The
delivery, by one morning's post alone, amounted to one
thousand six hundred and eighteen letters. Among the
competitors were clergymen and ministers of all deno-
minatiGns, officers in her Majesty's service, doctors of di-
vinity, law, and physic. surgeons, solicitors, professors,
tradesmen, and a large number of ladies. Three hun-
dred and twelve persons have been declared to be success-
ful, and have received a second enigma for further compe-
tition.. Of these 312 persons, 170 are gentlemen, and 142
ladies. London numbers 55; Liverpool, 5. 'Solutions
were received from her Majesty's Jewel-house in the

Tower, the Lord Mayor's ace, the ;lank of England
and even from Geneva, Brunels, and Panic.

POETRY.

SONNET.
BY JOHN EVANS.
1.40011 the silver willow's trembling leaves
The varying hues of ev'ning radiance glow ;
Its last sigh there the breeze of sunset heaves,
And dimples with soft kiss the rill below.
The tenants of the field in pastime close
Their festive day, their verdant couch resume,
And silent nature sweetly breathes repose,
As Luna's beams the twilight shade illume.
The balm and freshness of a summer eve,
Just as brown night her starry eye unseals,
The languid qualms of baffled hope relieve,
And the sick heart for one blest moment heals.
Still may I, Evening, hear thy farewell sigh,
Whisper of peace, and on the willow die.

MUSICAL TALK OF THE WEEK, SUPPOSED TO
HAVE DROPPED FROM THE POCKET OF
SOME MUSICAL CORRESPONDENT.

The general talk was that the Philharmonic Society
took a step in the right direction at their last concert, and
deserve the support of the town, though things did not
go off altogether so well as was expected. The talk of
the many was that Mr. Sullivan is a talented actor, but
placed in a position which very few actors venture to
occupy, and being somewhat under restrictions, he found
himself rather unexpectedly surrounded with all the dis-
advantages of a first appearance. The talk of nearly all
was that the music reflected great credit on the entire
society; that the band, considering that the occasion was
only their fifth appearance, fulfilled all reasonable expecta-
tions, and that its defects will disappear after'a little more
practice; that the choruses and vocal solos gained the
marked approbation of the audience. The talk of a very
few was that although " music has charms to sooth the
savage beast," it does not always Booth civilized breasts,
and therefore it was said that the band performed indif-
ferently ; that the chorus was only to be identified by the
benches they occupied, and that the vocalists were the
worst in the town ; that, in short, if the public wish to
acquire musical taste they must attend the threepenny
concerts. " I have a remarkable good ear in music, let
us have the tongs and the bones," said Master Bottom
to Titania, and Bottom had a right to have his own taste,
so has every one ; but the counter-talk was that the music
pleased the general audience to whom it was addressed,
and therefore that young ladies in the neighbourhood of
their teens, and young gentlemen luxuriating in their
first dress coats, should be careful how they inflict their
superior taste on the public; that as the jay when dressed in
peacock's feathers was only a jay after all, so thosewho affect
to be pleased with nothing out of London, may perhaps
have no better taste than their neighbours. Are sutor
supra erepidam judicaret, said Apelles of old. The
further talk was that the vocalists of the Philharmonic
are worthy of the position they hold ; that Miss Stottneed
not fear comparison with any in the town, though there
are many worthy of honourable notice ; that she has
earned the approbation and support of the public, and
this is something worth having. The talk was that the
Philharmonic is open to every vocalist who wishes to join,
and that if some are not there who wish to be there, they
have thoniseltco to blame.

CHESTER CATHEDRAL.—THE ANSON MEMORIAL.—
The obituary window in memory of the late G. E. Anson,
Esq., son of the Dean of Chester, has this week been
placed in the south aisle of the cathedral. The centre
compartment contains a fine representation of " The
Resurrection," beneath which is "The Entombment of
Christ." In the compartments on each side there are
heraldic emblems of England, Ireland, Wales, and Scot-
land ; and beneath these are Scripture subjects.
TESTIMONIAL OF RESPECT.—We, yesterday, saw in St.
Simon's Church, Gloucester-street, a chaste and beauti-
ful mural monument, recently erected over the east end
of the north gallery, at the sole expense of the congrega-
tion, in token of respect to the memory of the latela-
mented Mrs. Conor, the wife of Mr. Conor, the esteemed
incumbent of the church. The sculptor was our towns-
man, Mr. Spence, jun. ; and the work is executed with
great mastery and finish, in polished white marble, pro-
jecting in alto, from a black marble ground. The design
is purely gothic, the ton forming a pointed arch of the
ogee form, surmounted by a floriated ornament or pina-
de. The outward mouldings of the arch are correspond-
ingly enriched by floriated ornaments. On each side
there is a handsome corner-piece, supporting the inter-
mediate tablet and arch. Gothic tracery, finely moulded,
is introduced in the top of the arch, and within a com-
partment in this work, is introduced a raised beraldric
shield, quartered with the arms of Mr. Conor's family,
and those of the family of the deceased lady, who was
daughter of James nornby, Esq. Over this is the crest
of the former, and beneath it, on a ribbon,. or scroll, is
inscribed the motto of the same, in the ancient Irish lan-
guage and in antique lettering. The inscription on the
tablet, below this, is at once elegant yet simple, and con-
cludes with an appropriate scriptural quotation, bearing
allusion to the amiable charagter of the deceased lady.
The erection conveys at once a sincere tribute to the me-
mory of the deceased, and of respect fey the pastoral Zeal
'of the bereaved incumbent.

CHTNA.

Our correspondent at Hongkong, whose letter is dated
March 30th, writes as follows :
The only important intelligence to communicate is the
death, on the 25th of February, of the Emperor of China,
Tau-Kwang (the Lustre of Reason). in the 69th yeah of
his age, and 30th of his reign. The foreign consuls at
Shanghae, received from the authorities there, on the
20th of March, an official notice that his Majesty the Em-
peror " had departed upon the great journey, and had
mounted upwards on the dragon to be a guest on high."
The nomination of a successor rests always with the
Emperor, and before his death Tau-Ksvang decreed that
his fourth and oply surviving son should succeed him.

He ascended the throne the day of the Emperor's death,
and is to reign under the title of Sze-hing. He is only
19 years of age. Keying, the former Viceroy at Canton,
is appointed his principal guardian, and will no doubt
hold a high and an influential position in the cabinet.
On the 23rd instant Her Majesty's screw sloop Rey- -
!lard, Captain Cracroft, recaptured, from pirates. a little
out of this harbour,•three fishing junks lately taken from
the owners, some of whom had been wounded and killed.
The pirates had transferred their guns, firearms, and
spears to their prizes, being better adapted for their pur-
poses, and had just received a reinforcement of men,
ammunition, and provisions from this settlement. Such
is the character and employment of the Chinese popula-
tion of this island. Of the pirates 15 were brought in
prisoners, 15 arc supposed to have been drowned, and the
remainder, about 20, escaped.
The Bishop of Victoria arrived yesterday in the Sir
George Po I Eck.
At Canton all is quiet. The favourable accounts of tea
from England have nearly cleared the market of the
quantity remaining on hand at 2 to 3 to advance. The
excess of export of all kinds from China to this date, com-
pared with the same period last year, is 6,000,0001 b.
Our advices from Sbangbae are down to the 20th of
March. The population of the town and neighbourhood
of Shanghae were suffering from severe famine, conse-
quent upon the late inundations, and it was feared that
pestilence might follow.
The export season was considered about closed.
Of silk, the export, including what was in course of
shipment, would be under 13,000 hales. It is possible,
however, from the high prices offering, small parcels
might still find their way down from the interior.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.

[The following letter, though written in London, is just
as applicable in a thousand instances to andi other
towns.]

Sir,—As you are now calling public attention to the
absurd exemptions under the assessed taxes I beg to point
out one of the most unjnst.' _

- -
I keep a small greengrocer's shop, and T am compelled
to keep a small horse, jwhich cost me £2 7s. 6d. at
Smithfield) to fetch my goods from market and to hawk
them about, for this I am taxed Ils. 6d.'
My neighbour, Mr. Jones, keeps a handsome four-
wheeled chaise, drawn by a pony, of 12 hands high,
which cost him 65 guineas, which is wholly exempt from
duty.
I may add, I have seven children to keep on £75 a-year,
and my neighbour is living in his handsome villa upon an
income of several hundreds. This is equal taxation with a
vengeance ! Your obedient servant, GREENS.
Islington, May 18.

Sir William Fielden, of Blackburn, and father of Mrs.
Daniel Willis, of this town, died on Saturday.
We understand that Messrs. Charles Herrman, Had-
dock, and Adelsburg are engaged for Mr. Percival's next
musical soiree at the Assembly Rooms.
EASTRAM FERRY.—This splendidly situated ferry was
yesterday visited by thousands of those who celebrate the
Whitsun holidays. It will be seen that the fares are now
reduced so as to place within the means of all the power
of visiting a locality that from its picturesque appearance
is designated the " Richmond of Liverpool." Two ex-
cellent boats are now on the station.
