CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.
As Mr. Levi has been informed by several of his Patients that
a person has been calling on several houses in Liverpool, and
representing himself to some as Mr. Levi, and to others that
he was sent by him, Mr. Levi thinks it but justice to the
public, to acquaint them that he has no connexion with any
such pretenders, nor does he attend out of his residence,
(except by particular desire,) neither will he be responsiblC
for any accident that is likely to occur by employing such em-
piric:. Mr. L. begs partieularly to direct the attention of
those who may be troubled with terns, Bunions, 4-c., to a pa-
ragraph which appeared inthe"LONDON MORNING POST,"
of November the 13th, where will be seen the dangerous re.
sults that may occur from unskilful treatment.
MONSIEUR LEVI, CHIROPODIST, from Paris',
and No. 3, CONDUIT-STREET, REGENT-STREET, LON-
DON, has the honour to announce to the Nobility, Gentry, and
Inhabitants of Liverpool and its Environs, his FOURTH AN.
NUAL PROFESSIONAL VISIT to this town; and, owing to
his numerous engagements in London and Paris, his present
stay will be necessarily short; an immediate application will
therefore be desirable.
Mons. L. takes the present opportunity to return his grateful
thanks for the extensive patronage and kindness he experienced
during his former visits, and considers it his duty to state that
various arrangements at his establishments in London and
Paris will preclude the possibility of his revisiting this town
for a very long period, so that those who may require his pro.
fessional services should not lose the present favourable op,
pornity.
Monsieur Levi may be CONSULTED DAILY, for a short
time only, from the hours of Ten till Four o'clock, at his Resi-
dence,

No. 34, BOLD-STREET, LIVERPOOL.

HOUSE OF COMMONS:--MONDAY

Mr. F. O'CONNOR gave notice, that on the 13th instant
lie would present a petition from the chartists of the king-
dom, praying the house to adopt the principles embodied
in the " people's charter," viz., vote by ballot, annual
parliaments, universal suffrage, eaual electoral districts,
anslthepayment of members.

Mr. ANSTEY gave notice that he should on an early
day move an address to the crown, that no arrangements
may be entered into with foreign powers which shall not
secure to the Polish people the full enjoyment of their
liberties and their territory.

Sir G. GREY, in reply to Sir J. Duckworth, said a bill
was prepared on the subject of highways which would
also include turnpike trusts, and would shortly be sub-
mitted to the house.

he CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER having moved
committal of the Income Tax Bill.

Mr. HUME denounced it as inquisitorial, oppressive,
Enid cruel ; and moved, with the view of rendering it more
just and less offensive, that it be referred to a select com-
.

mittee up stairs

- Mr. ROBIssoN seconded the amendment, which was
supported also by Mr. J. Clay, Mr. S. Crawford, Mr.
Urquhart, and Mr. Anstey.
The speakers in favour of the original motion were the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Trelawny, Mr. Carter,
Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Newdegate, and Mr. Horsman, who
considered, after the decision of the house on his motion
on a former day, that the better way would be now to let
the income-tax pass, and that the house should address
itself at once to a revision of the whole income and ex-
penditureof the country.

On a division the numbers were 294 to 73; majorit

on the main question, When the numbers were 323 to 12,
'majority 311 ; and the house went into committee, went
through the bill, and the report was ordered to be re-

ceived on Thurs

On the motion of the LORD ADVOCATE, the Select
Committee on the Law of Entail (Scotland) Bill was
nominated, and on its being proposed to substitute the
name of Mr. J. Stuart for that of Mr. Ewart, the house
divided, 66 to 32, in favour of the latter.

Sir DE LACY EVANS moved for leave to bring in a bill
to alter the periods of payment of taxes by parliamentary
electors ; and after an ineffectual attempt by Mr. Forbes
to adjourn the house, the bill was brought up and read a
first time; as was also the Administration of Oaths, &c.,
Court of Chancery Bill.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-'

TUESDAY

Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL, on behalf of Mr. W. S.
O'Brien, gave notice that he would move on the 11th of
April for leave to bring in a bill for the repeal of the
union between England and Ireland.
Sir G. GREY, in reference to the late evictions in Gal-
way, brought under the notice of the house by Mr. P.
&rope, on recent occasions, stated, that Mr. Blake's
explanation of the transactions in question not having
proved satisfactory, that gentleman's name had been

itruck out of the 'commission of the peace. Mr. St.
George, also a member of that house, implicated in this
matter, but who was at present abroad, had been called
upon to explain his conduct, but from him no answer had
as yet been received.

Slr. BANKES moved a resolution, " that in the opinion
of the house, the powers, rights, and authority now vested
in the commissioners of railways, may be so regulated as
to,secure their efficient execution at a greatly diminished
rate of charge to the public." _ •
_ _

The CHANCELLOR. of the EXCHEQUER admitted the
necessity for economy in this department, and intimated
that on Mr. Strutt's being unseated for Derby, that gen-
tleman had tendered his resignation of the office of first
commissioner of railways, which had been reluctantly
accepted ; and a member of the Board of Trade would be
appointed as an unpaid commissioner to fill the office.
After some discussion, Mr. LABOUCHERE moved the
previous question, which, on a division, was carried by a
majority of 19, thd numbers being 75 to 56.
Mr. J. S. WORTLEY moved the second reading of the
Election Recognizances Bill, its principal object being,
in those cases of contested returns where the recogni-
zances taken before the examiner are invalid, that the
petitioners shall be afforded the opportunity of making
them good before the committee on elections.

After a debate the house divided, when the second
reading was carried by a majority of 32, the numbers
being 112 to 80.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WEDNEsDAy

AN STEP postponed the committee on the Roman
Catholic Relief Bill until a future day.

Mr. GOVLBURN moved for the appointment of a select
committee to inquire whether the oaths required to be
taken at the table by members of the house had been duly
taken by Benjamin Hawes, Esq. (the newly-elected
member for Kinsale.)
The motion was agreed to, and a select committee or-
dered to be appointed.
Mr. EWART postponed the second reading of the Ap-
peals in Criminal Cases Bill until the second Wednesday
after Easter.

HOUSE OF LORDS.—THURSDAY.
The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH brought forward

a motion

respecting the increase which had taken place in the ex-
pense of the public departments during the past year. The
noble lord particularly specified the post-office, the Admi-
ralty, and the Colonial-office, as the departments in which
additional expense had been incurred, amounting to a to-
taLog.AMP-Mtentitinigelflvitti-m`osving for a specific re-
turn of the salaries and emoluments allowed to each per-
son employed in the public departments for the year 1847.
If that return should not be satisfactory, then he should
consider it necessary either to move fora select committee,
or perhaps to move for the correspbndence which had
taken place between the Treasury and the different depart..
xnents with respect to the increase or diminution of the
charge on.the public.

The Marquii of LANSDOWNE had no objection to the
return. He was quite sure that the additional charges
were not incurred for any other object than the efficient
discharge of the public duties required from each depart-
ment.

Earls GREY and AUCKLAND and the Marquis of CLAN-
RICARDE then explained the reasons which had occasioned
increased expenditure in their several departments.
Lord STANLEY thanked the Earl of Ellenborough for
having brought the subject forward, but suggested, as the
Government did not seem to have understood the nature
of his motion, that it should be withdrawn and brought
forward again at a future period.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH agreed to this suggestion,
and the motion was withdrawn.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE, in reply to Lord Beau-
mont, stated that the effect of the Arms Act had been to
put an end to outrage in the- more disturbed districts of
Ireland,—that juries and witnesses also had discharged
their onerous duties in the most exemplary manner,—that
the clergy of the Establ shed Church had generally lent
their aid in preventing disturbance, and the Roman Ca-
tholic clergy, also, had, not only in Ireland, but in Eng-
land—particularly in Manchester—manifested a strong
desire for the preservation of order, by exhorting their
hearers to preserve it. He earnestly hoped, therefore,
with the aid of the improved spirit which had evinced
itself in Ireland, that the government would be enabled,
to maintain that which they were determined to maintain
—the public peace.

Lord STANLEY congratulated their lordships on the
testimony borne to the conduct of the catholic clergy, the
more particularly because he had had occasion at an earlier
period of the session to impugn it ; but he even now
thought they felt desirous of having it believed that the
'preservation of order was rather the result of their own
fluence than to be attributed to the operation of the
aw. He was free, however, to admit that there were
cases, as at Manchester and elsewhere, which showed the
existence of a more estimable spirit. After referring to
the revolutions which were convulsing Europe, but which
found but a faint echo in this country, in consequence of
the determined conduct of the great bulk of society to
overawe the small minority who were anxious to disturb
it, the noble lord proceeded to contend, that looking to
the language which had been used by certain parties in
Ireland, it did appear to him, contemplating the conse-
quences to which such exhortations might lead, that they
ought to be rendered liable to a punishment less tardy
than the ordinary process of indictment for misdemeanour,
or prosecution as state criminals for thigh treason could
award. He thought this subject well deserving the
attention of all those who were desirous to see bloodshed
avoided, and peace maintained in Ireland.
Lord MONTEAGLE was of opinion that the law had
never been more satisfactorily administered in Ireland
than at the present time : the people saw that acts of vio-
lence interfered with the application of capital and the
employment of labour, and hence a better feeling was ma-
nifested throughout that country.
