Gums. Being an Anti-Scorbuticeit eradicates the Scurvy
from the Gums, strengthens, braces, and renders them of
a healthy red; it removes unpleasant tastes from the

is confined solely to the knowledge and practice of A:
ROWLAND and SON, 20, HATTON GARDEN, LONDON—
the amalgamation of their costly exotic materials neu-
tralizes all attempts to separate tit, it component parts,
and thus proves the imposition of all other articles bearing
the same names.

DESIRABLE FREEHOLD ESTATE IN GREAT

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MoNnAy.

The third reading of the Sheffield. Ashton-under-Lyne,
and Manchester Railway Bill, and the Ashton, Staly-
bridge' and Liverpool Junction Railway Bill, were post-
poned for a fortnight.
Sir R. PEEL said, after mature deliberation, he saw no
reason why he should deviate from the original plan he
proposed relating to the renewal of the Bank Charter.
(Hear, hear.) He should, therefore, adhere to his plan.
as stated to the house on the 6th of May. He could not
agree to any additional issue of paper than that proposed
by the Bank of England, unless by the consent of the
executive government, and by an order of her Majesty in
council. He thought it necessary that there should be,
at least, one-third of the amount of bullion in the Bank,
in proportion to the issue of notes. He did not consider
bullion related entirely to gold. Silver might, and was,
appropriately denominated bullion. He could not con-
sider that gold was the only legal standard, but he thought
paper ought to be exchanged for gold. He did not intend
to make any alteration in this respect. He felt called
upon to abide by his original resolutions.
The Premier's plan having met with general approba-
tion throughout the house, the resolutions were passed
without opposition.

THE LIVERPOOL STANIDARD,

Mr. Justice Crampton declared that the court would
not listen to the same topics over and over again.
The Attorney-General gave the traversers notice, that
he would call ti po❑ them to proceed in support of their motion
in arrest of judgment without delay, although he much
doubted their right to move it, and, at eight o'clock, the
court adjourned to Saturday.

Church. The amount destined to Church building,
already contributed, was 230,000; for the Sustenation
Fund, 70,000; nearly 500,000 had been raised for schools ;
and the large sum of 32,000 for missionary objects. If
they added to these sums the amount expedient for indi-
vidual congregations for building churches for themselves,
and for supplementing the stipends of their own ministers,
the total would be little less than half a million. The 470
ministers who had left the Church of Scotland had laid
down at least 100,000 a-year, and as the adherents of the
Church of Scotland were at least 100,000, a very small
contribution from each, only a id. a-week would raise up
as much as 470 had laid down.

CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 24.

Except on Colonial Rye, raised to 2s. per qr., there is no
change in any of the duties this week.
The very large supply of Wheat up to Tuesday's market has
been further increased by subsequent arrivals from the Baltic,
Mediterranean, and Black Sea, beyond which, and 500 qrs.
Barley, we have no Foreign Imports to notice, while those Coast.
wise and from Ireland continue to be extremely light.
Having no symptoms of rain, and the weather being now much
warmer than heretofore, the pastures are sti I exceedingly bare,
and the Haygrass and spring Corn upon all dry soils in this
circle of the c .entry, are evidently suffering from the drought.
a continuance of which can hardly fail to create some hdvance
in prices ere long : between Tuesday last and to-day, however,
no revival in the demand, nor improvement in the value of any
article of the Corn trade appeared to occur, except in Beans, 4 0
qrs. of Egyptian, in bond, having changed hands at 2i s. per
4801bS. _

In the absence of country millers at this day's market, and
our local dealers remaining almo•t wholly on the reserve, the
trade of all descriptions of English, Irish and Foreign free
Wheats we• e excessively dull; seeing:no inducement, however,
to press business on lower terms, importers continued to re-
quire the current rates of Tuesday, which in the few limited
sales effected were scarcely sustained. English and Irish Flour,
as well as duty paid States and Canadian, was equally difficult
to move at late prices. . . . • . . .

Barley and Pease, upon a limited sa'e, remained unaltered;
and Malt being in steady demand, retained its former value.
British and European Beans were in tolerable request at an ad-
vance of 6d. and Egyptian free 2s per quarter dearer.
Oats, no:-wi hstanding the want of rain, were not so readily
disposed of as the occasion appeared to justify, and mcrely sup-
ported our last quotations; whilst Oatmeal in consequence,
commanded somewhat more attention, at an improvement of
fully 3d p.1•2431b.
Of States Flour in bond, 1500 ba rels have been sold at 21s
6d; but of Wheat, either under lock or afloat, no transactions
are reported to day.

LIVERPOOL DOCKS.

At the close of the proceedings upon this bill on Friday,
the Speaker having been announced at prayers,
Mr. HILL, addressing the Chairman, said he hoped the
committee would conclude the investigation that night, in
order to enable them to report at once to tae house, as
that being the last day, the bill would otherwise be
lost. In reply to this, Lord Granville Somerset
promised his influence to get the promoters over their
difficulty ; and by the printed orders of the house we find
that leave was subsequently given to report on Monday
instead of Friday. Be private advices we learn that the
question. as to the disposal of the land from the docks,
has since been satisfactorily settled, the views of the dock
surveyor, Mr. Hartley, having been fully recognised as
correct; and it may now almost be depended upon as
certain, that, the clauses having been all agreed to, the
bill will be reported immediately, and its success in all its
stages thus secured.

GENERAL MISCELLANY.

On Friday last her Majesty completed her twenty-fifth
year.
The guano trade is still thriving, and no less than 300
British vessels are now engaged in a business that was
not thought of two years ago.

Tollemache, Lord Huntingtower, figures in the list of
insolvents in Tuesday's Gazette.
• -

----
Mr. Crockford, of gaming-table notoriety, expired
between nine and ten o'clock on Friday night. His death
will add to the difficulties of the settling on the Derby.
LAUNCESTON ELECTlON.—Yesterday week, Admiral
Bowles was returned member for this borough, in the
room of Sir Henry Hardinge.

Several agricultural villages have petitioned the House
of Commons to re-inflict the punishment of death on
persons guilty of the crime of arson.
t STRANGE FOSTER MOTIIER.—There is now to be seen
at Mrs. Norton's, the Mexborough Arms Inn, Hunslet,
near Leeds, a cat that is suckling six young rabbits.

A DESTRUCTIVE PAUPER.—On Friday week, a pauper
in the Devizes Union workhouse, who was dissatisfied
with his supper, demolished four hundred and thirteen
panes of glass.
CONVERTED MEMBER.—On Monday, in the Commons,
Mr. Scott Murray, having embraced the Roman Catholic
religion, took the oath prescribed for members of that
persuasion.
ECLIPSE OF THE MOON.—On Friday next, the 31st
instant, there will be a total eclipse of the moon. The
eclipse will commence at fourteen minutes after eight in
the evening, and terminate at twenty-six minutes after
one o'clock the following morning.
PATENT MEDICINES.—We learn from a parliamentary
_return just printed, that the amount of duty on patent
medicines, in the 10 years, ending sth January, 1844, was
on an average, nearly £30,000 a year. This shows an im-
mense consumption.

A short time since, a poor woman of Colchester, having
scratched her hand, and afterwards brought it in contact
with a corpse which she bad been engaged to lay out, the
member became inflamed, and the disease increased to
such a degree as to cause death a few days afterwards.
TEE HOUSES OP PARLIAMENT.-It appears by a re-
turn made to the House of Commons, that in 1838 the
Lords of the Treasury limited Mr. Barry's remuneration,
as architect of the Houses of Parliament, to £25,000 to
be paid at intervals in proportion to the advance of the
works.
THE APOTHECARIES' HALL.—This establishment has
just issued a report of its proceedings since 1815, when
penal enactments were passed against any unlicensed
person practising. From the report it appears that, from
August, 1815, to January, 1844, there were 11,564 appli-
cants for admission, of whom 1531 were rejected, and
10,033 admitted. In they ears 1836-7, the applications
were 622, which, in 184-3, were reduced to 396, The
report stated that the hall had succeeded in almost every
prosecution against unqualified practitioners, and that
each prosecution cost £320.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1844-05-28

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY.

-- -
The third reading of the Sheffield. Ashton-under-Lyne,
and Manchester Railway Bill, and the Ashton, Staly-
bridge, and Liverpool Junction Railway Bill, were post-
poned for a fortnight.
Sir R. PEEL said, after mature deliberation, he saw no
reason why he should deviate from the original plan he
proposed relating to the renewal of the Bank Charter.
(Hear, hear.) He should, therefore, adhere to his plan,
as stated to the house on the 6th of May. He could not
agree to any additional issue of paper than that proposed
by the Bank of England, unless by the consent of the
executive government, and by an order of her Majesty in
council. He thought it necessary that there should be,
at least, one-third of the amount of bullion in the Bank,
in proportion to the issue of notes. He did not consider
bullion related entirely to gold. Silver might, and was,
appropriately denominated bullion. He could not con-
sider that gold was the only legal standard, but he thought
paper ought to be exchanged for gold. He did not intend
to make any alteration in this respect. He felt called
upon to abide by his original resolutions.
The Premier's plan having met with general approba-
tion throughout the house, the resolutions were passed
without opposition.

RAILWAY INTELLIGEACE.

CHAMBERLAIN V. THE CHESTER AND BiRKENWPAD
RAILWAY COMPANY.—His Honour, on Wednesday men-
tioned this case, and intimated to the counsel engaged in
it, that unless the parties desired to have the question of
the right of the company to open the proposed railroad to
Monk's Ferry alone tried at law, that their legal position
might be immediately ascertained, and the defendants, for
that purpose, would consent to admit that they had
opened the railroad complained of, the only course the
court could take would be to make no order on the mo-
tion. but to reserve the costs, and finally dispose of the
question at the hearing. Mr. Bolt, for the defendants,
said they would consider his honour's suggestion.

GRAND JUNCTION
RAILWAY.-An adjourned meeti
in
ngof this company was held in the Cotton Saes-room,this town, on Tuesday last, for the purpose of creating
new shares. The chair was occupied by John Moss;
Esq., and the meeting was most nutneronsly attended,
The chairman stated that, in conseqUenre of the opposi•
Lion offered by Lord Brougham, the bill, in respect of
which the shares were to be crewed, had not yet received
the royal assent; but it was expected that in the course
of a short time the assent would be given, and matters
finally arranged. A general adj urnment was then ordered
to take place. Mr. Hardman Earle, one of the directors,
entered into a long statement of the disagreements be-
tween the Grand Junction and the London and Birming-
ham Companies, the main ground of difference being,
that, after a pledge from the chairman of the London and
Birmingham Company that they were not taking shares
in the railway from Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton, they
either advertised, or allowed others to advertise for them,
a go. ,rantee to the subscribers in the railway between
Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton of 4 per cent. for th-ir
money. He contended, that this latter would, to all in.
tents and purpoSes, be a competing line with the Grand
Junction, as it would be carried from Wolverhampton to
Birmingham in the smith, and from Shrewsbury to Ches-
ter in the opposite direction ; and, as the Chester and
Birkelhead Line belonged to the London and Birming-
ham C,lnpany already, it would give a line of railway to
Liverpool independent of the Grand Junction. After a
long discussion on the subject, a resolution was pa,sed
to the effect that the directors of the London and Bir-
mingham Company should be requested to withdraw from
the projected line; and that, if necessary, the directors of
the Grand Junction Company should publish the corre-
spondence which had taken place between the two com-
panies. Another resolution was also adopted, empower-
ing the directors of the Grand Junction Company, in case
the London and Birmingham directors did nut withdraw,
to take such steps as they might deem expedient for the
protection of the interests of the proprietors generally.
The discussion was animated, principally as to whether
the correspondence should be publisked. The chairman
expressed himself anxious for its publication.
