POOLEY'S NEW PATENTED IMPROVEMENTS,

HENRY POOLEY AND SON,

CONTINUE THE

SOLE MAKERS UNDER THE PATENT,
Some of their advantages are—
I.—Economy in Price; to the extent of from 25 to 40 per
cent. _

ll.—Economy in Time and Labour ;—only the one hun-
dredth part of the weights is required to be lifted; one-half of
the time occupied in weighing is entirely saved.
111.—Economy in Space ;—they have only one Platform or
Scale ; no fixtures are required for suspension; no room is oc-
cupied by weights.
IV.—Economy in Annual Expense ;—they require less pe-
riodical• adjustment ; the centres are detached from their
bearings, and of course exempt from wear, except at the mo-
ment of ascertaining the weight.
As a Weigh-bridge for weighing Wagons on common roads,
and for Trucks or Wagons on Railways, this Machine is pe-
culiarly adapted. It may be fixed, if required, in a pit only
fifteen inches deep; it occupies only half the usual space in.
the office; it is more exact in its indications than any of the
old kinds of Weigh-bridges. The celebrity of
FAIRBANKS' MACHINES,
OF

POOLEY'S MANUFACTURE,
has induced many imitations, having a professed and specious
resemblance, at a low price. To guard the Public from imposi-
tion, and the invention from losing its high standing by the
hands of incompetent makers,
THE TRUE MACHINE
IS NOW OFFERED AT PRICES FULLY AS LOW AS THE
IMITATION,
Thus placing it within the reach of every Trader.
MESSRS. POOLEY AND SON
are Makers to the Hon. Board of Ordnance, and by special
appointment to the London and North-Western, the Midland,
and other leading Railway Companies.
Ironmongers and the Trade supplied on liberal terms.

JONES'S ESSENCE OF CONCENTRATED COMPOUND
DECOCTION OF RED JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA.
The high esteem in which Sarsaparilla has of late years been
held by Medical Practitioners, its reputation as a safe and effi-
cacious Domestic Medicine, and its consequently extensive use
among all classes of society, has rendered it one of the most
important remedies of the present age.
This preparation is composed of the finest Jamaica Sarsapa-
rilla imported, and prepared in Vacuo, by which the whole of
its essential properties are retained. The Proprietor can con-
fidently recommend it as one of the most efficient preparations
extant. It is most particularly taken as an alterative and pu-
rifier in the following affections :—Eruption of the Skin,
Pains in the Bones, Ulcerated Sore Throat, Scorbutic Affec-
tions, Local and General Debility, and all diseases arising from
the impure state of the blood.

ous article ever in use for cleansing, beatifying, and preserving

and restoring it on bald places. Also, may be had pure Iftr-
row Oil, Castor Oil Pomade, and Vegetable Hair Oil.

certain. They cleanse the body from all humours occasioned
by the Measles, or Smallpox and Surfeits, and as a general
medicine at spring and autumn nothing can be better adapted.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY.

Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL, stated that the Committee ap-
pointed to try the petition against toe return of Sir Wil-
loughby Jones, for Cheltenham, had determined that Sir
Willoughby Jones was not duly returned at the late elec-
tion, and that he had been guilty of bribery through his
agents. That various parties (named) had severally re-
ceived bribes of from £1 15s. to £2 103. each, the said
sums having been paid in the first case for services as
messengers, no such services having been performed by
such parties; but that it had not been proved that these
acts had been committed with the knowledge of Sir Wil-
loughby Jones.

In reply to a question from Mr. Keogh, Lord JOHN
RUSSELL said he had no intimation from Ireland as to
whether the Catholics on Mr. Mitchel's panel had been
set aside, to the number of eighteen, in open Court by the
Attorney-General, and without cause assigned. He had
received letters respecting the former trials, denying that
any proceeding of that kind had been adopted.
Mr. BRIGHT then drew attention to the mode in which
the jury was selected in the case of Mr. Mitchel, contend-
ing that great mischiefs were likely to be the result of the
striking off of all the Catholics from the panel. He was
sure the transportation of Mr. Mitchel would not tend to
pacify Ireland.
Mr. LAW rose to order, and Mr. BRIGHT concluded by
declaring that the people of England would now go with
the mass of the people of Ireland in overturning the Esta-
blished Church in that country.
Mr. GRATTAN strongly condemned the cowardly course
pursued towards Mitchel in packing his jury, a course cal-
culated to make repeaters of the whole country.
0.- the motion for the House resolving itself into a
Committee of the whole House upon the Navigation Laws,
Mr. HERRIES moved as an amendment the following
resolution, " That it is essential to the national interests
of this country to maintain the fundamental principles of
the existing Navigation Laws; subject to such modifica-
tions as may be hest calculated to obviate any proved in-
convenience to the commerce of the United Kingdom and
itsdependencies,withoutdanger to our maritime strength."
Mr. LABOUCHERE opposed the amendment.
After speeches from Mr. Ald. Thompson. Dr. Bowring,
Mr. H. Baillie, Mr. J. Wilson. Mr. H. Drummond, and
Mr. F. Scott, the debate was adjourned.
