POLITICAL MISCELLANY.

Sir R. Gore Booth, a Protectionist, has been returned
without opposition for Sligo.
Mr. Ellis, M.P., had an interview with Sir George Grey
on Thursday, at the Home Office, to convey to him an
anti-slavery petition to her Majesty signed by 59,686
women of the United Kingdom, praying her Majesty to
promote the use of free labour produce.
A deputation on the sub-division of parishes had an
interview with Lord John Russell on Thursday. The
deputation consisted of Mr. Adderley, M.P., Lord Robt.
Grosvenor, M.P., Mr. Greenall, M.P., Mr. Jackson,
M.P., Mr. Christie, M.P., Mr. Frewen, M.P., Lord
Lewisham, M.P., Rev. Frederick Wade, and the Rev.
Francis Kitchin.
On Friday, Mr. Cardwell presented petitions from
Liverpool for the removal of duties on timber ; and from
members of the Archaeological and Architectural Society
of Liverpool, praying for the removal of duties on bricks
and timber ; and from the letterpress printers and book-
binders of Liverpool for the repeal of the advertisement.
newspaper stamp, and paper duty.
From the Notice Paper of the House of Commons it
appears that last night Mr. Hume would ask " what
notice the Government intend to take of the protest of
Mr. Denison published in all the papers yesterday, im-
pugning the judgment of her Majesty's Council in the
case of Gorham v. the Bishop of Exeter, and denying the
Supremacy of the Crown as head of the Established
Church."
On Tuesday, a numerous deputation, composed of fac-
tory masters and factory operatives, had an interview with
Lord John Russell, at his official residence in Downing-
street. Sir George Grey was also present. The deputa-
tation numbered about thirty persons, and was accompa-
nied by the Eerl of Harrowby, Lord John Manners, M.P.,
Sir Robert Inglis, M.P., Sir Joshua Walmsley, M.P.,
Colonel De Lacy Evans, M.P., Mr. W. J. Fox, M.P.,
Mr. Edwards, M.P., Sir George Strickland, M.P. ; Mr.
Muntz, M.P., &c.
A second dispatch from Count Nesselrode to Baron
Brunow has obtained publication. The Cabinet of St.
Petersburgh having found that the mediation of France
has been accepted by England, will no longer insist upon
a want of courtesy complained of in its former note, but
trusts that such mediation will produce the most amicable
results. Nevertheless, as it regards the cession of the
Greek islands, the Russian government connot permit
this question to be settled without its consent, as well as
that of England and France, these three cabinets having
founded the Hellenic kingdom, as by treaty established.
Such is the tenor of the second note.
Free-trade has rendered the people of England tho-
roughly contented and happy ; the repeal of the corn laws
has answered the expectations of its most sanguine advo-
cates ; the necessaries, and even the luxuries of life,
according to Sir Robert Peel, have been brought within
the reach of the humblest of the labouring classes,—yet
concurrently with all this there is a cry for retrenchment
and financial reform from one end of the kingdom to
another, and the only reason given for that cry is that
the heavy load of taxation has become intolerable in the
present circumstances of the nation. The minority of
Tuesday last contained representatives of every political
party in the country. The Protectionist, the Leaguer,
the Whig, and the Radical, passed into the same lobby.
The Earls of Clancarty and Bradford have taken the
lead in a movement which, we hope, will not be allowed
to subside until it has achieved success. The two noble
and conscientious earls decline taking their seats in Par-
liament on account of the—we had almost said perjury,
but, at all events, inconsistent oath to which they must
submit before they can be admitted to sit again in the
House of Peers. They object to the oath generally, as
much for other lords as themselves, inasmuch as it states
not only that no foreign potentate ought to have power
in Britain, but that no foreign potentate "hath " that
power. This is known to be contrary to truth. The
Pope is permitted to exercise a certain power at his own
caprice : in its exercise he shows neither courtesy to the
heads of his own Church within the realm, nor respect to
the sovereign to whose rule that realm is committed.
The Romish hierarchy in Ireland is disposed of by him
without any regard to its own privilege ; and the course
taken by the Queen to render peace to Ireland, and to
reconcile adverse factions within its limits, is crossed by
the opposing influences and the absolute decrees of the
Bishop of Rome. Where such things exist, it is nonsense
to say that the Pope has no jurisdiction in England, and
impious to make men swear to it. To one of these
courses we must come,—either suppress the usurped
power or alter the oath.
A RADICAL PROTECTIONIST.—The Hon. Grantley
Berkeley has addressed a letter to the Premier stating that
he can no longer support the government. He concludes
his letter as follows :—" Before this session is over we
will test the extent of the desire in Messrs. Cobden,
Bright, and Co. really to effect the just removal of those
burdens vthich at present stamp free trade as an impolitic
and a class legislation. If no one more competent than
myself essays to close the English market against slave
produce, and afterwards to recall the African squadron
from the scene of its hitherto vain efforts, I will, as soon
after Easter as possible, bring that question before the
house. If I succeed in that motion, I should put an end
to slavery, and save to the country upwards of £lOO,OOO
a year, besides the loss of life among the crews of British
seamen. Those who really desire retrenchment in expen-
diture, and success to the cause of religion and morality,
must support me ; and on that occasion I shall reckon on
the votes of Messrs. Cobden, Bright, and Co. I will,
then, in the event of no more able advocate being found,
bring under the notice of the house the necessity which
existsfor a return to protection, by the impost of an eight-
shilling duty upon foreign corn, to continue until such
time as the burdens on the land of this country shall be so
far reduced as to enable the tenant-farmer and home-
grower to compete with the foreign markets of the world.'

QUACKS AND THEIR QUACKERIES.—The legislature
having left the public much at the mercy of those igno-
rant compounders of useless or dangerous nostrums for
which their authors claim such astonishing virtues, it
becomes a duty of the press, the natural guardian of
society, to sift the tares from the wheat, and warn off the
unwary from those deceptive appearances,,whia, if they
do hot altogether invite to destroy, care little what the
consequences may be, so long as they dispose of commo-
dities made only "to sell !" Were we to judge, then,
merely by pretensions, how many infallible remedies
should we have to stigmOse as barefaced impostures on
the public. But amidst this host of frauds, as manifest
to the wary age as ,fy have been proved to be deleterious
in fact—still the • ore some wholesome and reliable me-
dicines, whic • .ccomplish all they pretend, and amongst
these—the " ra avis "of patent medicines—are COCKLE'S
PILLS : at they promise they perform, while it Is cer-
tain th: they are a safe medicine ; a character which can-
not •. accorded to nine-tenths of the compounds that
perform so many astounding miracles—in print.--John
Bull.

A WONDERFUL WORK-BOX.—According to an Enigma
published in No. 18 of The Family Friend, for March the
15th, an ordinary work-box is capable of containing a
lion, an elephant, a tiger, a stag, a dragon, a peacock, a
goat, and numerous other animals, all alive, and to each
one may be allowed a cage. Tn addition to this-menagerie,
there may be exhibited, within the york-box, a magic
lantern, by which may be shown a living ghost—
" And as uncommon things the most make common peoplestare,
(And giants are uncommon) gr t Goliath shall be there !"
A Gold Watch, value Ten neas, is offered to the per-

THE NATIONAL SOCIETY AND NATIONAL
EDUCATION.

The following excellent letter, from the Rev. Canon
Stowell, appeared in the London Times of Thursday, and
ought to be promptly and energetically acted upon. Let
the government and the country see that the noisy mem-
bers of the National Society who oppose the wishes of
the leading dignitaries of the Church constitute the
merest fraction of that church in respect either of intel-
ligence or numbers :

SlR,—Can you favour me with room in your widely circu-
lating journal to bring before the minds of my fellow church-
men, and more particularly of my fellow clergymen, a sub-
ject which seems to me to be of very pressing and practical
moment ?

It is clear that we hive reached a crisis in the history of
national education in this country. It will not be denied that
very enlarged and effective measures must be adopted by the
Legislature in furtherance of the object. The vital question
then arises, of what character are these measures to be ? Are
they to be in furtherance of a sound combination of secular
with scriptural education, or are they to have a tendency to
discard the latter and exalt the former?

The solution of this question is very much in the hands of
the religious communities of the land, and, above all, of the
national church. If we meet the Government in a large and
candid spirit, prepared to conciliate, so far as conciliation may
be consistent with faithfulness, and to concede, so far as con-
cession will not involve the compromise of principle; if, taking
our final stand on the Bible alone, we maintain our distinctive
peculiarities unbetrayed, whilst we do not attempt to force
them on the reluctant, there can be little doubt of the result.
But otherwise, it seems inevitable that the current of national
education will be forced into channels where it will cease to be
living, and therefore cease to be life-giving.
At such a juncture, what could he more. inopportune, more
likely to act mischievously, than the position assumed by the
committee of the National School Society— a body hitherto
recognized as the educational organ of the Church? By a late
decision of a majority of that committee our door of official
communication and co-operation with the State on the subject
of education is closed—a fact which I have been assured by
members of Parliament goes far to account for the ominous
complacency with which Mr. Fox's plausible but fatal bill was
received in the House of Commons.

But, was the voice of the majority of the committee of the
National School Society the voice of the church ? Far from it.
The voice of the minority rather, including, as there is reason
to believe, both our Archbishops, is. in truth, the voice of
9-10ths of the clerical, and 19-20ths of the lay members of the
establishment.

Then let that voice be heard—whether in memorials to the
committee, addresses to the Primate, to our respective dio-
cesans, or in whatever other mode. The matter presses. The
crisis is momentous. Action should be prompt and decisive.
The Manchester Church Education Society has taken the
initiative; and I write this letter in the hope that others will
go and do likewise.

I am, Sir, your faithful servant,
Manchester, 3farch 11. HUGH STOWELL,

THE SABBATH QUESTION

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
Manchester, 12th March, 1850.
Sia,—l purchase here, and am a constant reader of
your honest Christian paper. Your publication of this
date has an article in reply to the Liverpool Mercury on
the Sabbath question. lam much surprised that a paper
of its boasted sagacity should not come forth with some-
thing more substantial in argument than the extracts
I have read from it on this subject. He urges the hard-
ship a cessation of postal labour would inflict on the
tradesman, and the ruin that might be brought upon him
consequently, forgetting all the time that tile very same
argument might be used against the present syttem of
being obliged to provide for acceptances now falling due
on Sundays on the day previous. There is not a public
measure of utility that individual cases of hardship might;
not be brought to bear against it. Here is a question
upon which the Sunday labour of thousands of persons is
staked ; and leaving apart altogether the religious part of
the matter, I would like to ask the writer of the Mercury's
article to make the thing a personal Question, and put it
to himself, supposing him to be a journeyman printer or
clerk in the office,—" Would I like to be compelled to
come to the Mercury-office on Sunday as other days, and
commence setting type or directing newspapers ?" Now
this is just the position of post-office clerks and letter-
carriers. They, instead of repairing to their places of
worship, have to go to their week-day labour, thus not
only being deprived of Sabbath rest and its blessed privi-
leges, but are made the instruments of diverting the
thoughts of thousands from the contemplation of that
subject, for to indulge in which God in His wisdom and
mercy instituted that day of rest from labour.
I am, sir, yours respectfully, R. D.

THE CURRENCY.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
Stn,—Since I wrote the letter which you did me the
favour of inserting in your paper of the 12th instant, I
have seen a pamphlet published by a " London Banker,"
in which I am pleased to find a strong condemnation of
the present law as to regulating the circulation by the
quantity of gold, and for the same reason I mentioned in
my letter, viz. its being a mercantile article, and con-
stantly liable to great changes. The same party proposes
a remedy for this, which, however excellent in some parts,
is, I think, wrong in making the Government regular ban-
kers, by discounting bills whereon to found their issues of
notes.

I beg to suggest what appears to me a more simple plan,
and one that interferes less with existing institutions,
leaving banking entirely free for the public to arrange for
themselves. Say—

Let the present bullion and issue offices become entirely
Government concerns, to be managed by commission or
otherwise, as thought best. Let Government be the only
issuers of notes, and either make new ones, or stamp the
royal arms on the present Bank of England's, adding new
ones for two pounds ten shillings.

Let„the delft due to the Bank of England—eleven mil-
lions—be paid to them in these notes, and pay them for
whatever coin or bullion they choose to offer them ; and
in all other respects the Bank of England to be the Go-
vernment bank, as now. The issue department to be
buyers of gold and silver from any party, paying their
notes for the same, and also sellers. So far, there would
be no change in the amount of currency, and it would be
restricted, as the gold went out of the country, not by
law, but naturally. To prevent this, which is the present
great evil, let the bank of issue be authorised to buy stock,
or advance on the deposit thereof, to a certain amount,
say two-thirds of nominal value, but not to exceed a fixed
amount, which perhaps would give limit enough at fifty
millions of notes issued. This would give that elasticity
which the present system does not provide for, and pre-
vent the possibility of a panic, upon the safest foundation,
viz. property.
Country banks, at present legalised issuers, to remain
precisely as they now are, except that their notes must be
payable on demand in Government or national paper, and
they would always be able to provide this by either gold
or deposit of funded security.
These few suggestions I recommend to the consideration
of those who are anxious to prevent a recurrence of 1847,
and am, sir, yours obediently, A. B.
15th March, 1850.

FREE TRADE

" If the greyhound does not run well, the halloos of his pa-
Tons will not obtain the prize for him."—Sir TV. Scott.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD,

SlR,—The shouts of triumph so prematurely indulged
in, on the opening nights of the session, in regard to the
success of free trade, are become hushed. While this
phamtom-ship was represented to be " bounding over the
billows" " like a thing of life," she is suddenly becalmed,
or breakers have been descried. If the " halloos of pa-
trons" were sufficient to win the race of free trade, we
should now have been in the very hey-day of prosperity ;
but an obscuration has appeared in the manufacturing
sky, and we fear it will be found " all is not gold that
glitters," even in a Queen's speech. Mr. Editor, things
are changing ; the delusion and the snare are becoming
evident, and even the " big loaf" agitators must abide by
the verdict that will ultimately be pronounced in their
case, by the people of this country, although great havoc
may be committed before honest John Bull confesses that
he has been regularly duped. The beginning of the end
cannot be far distant, when things are already looking so
gloomy in Manchester, while we expected every weaver's
shuttle and spinning-jenny were vibrating at full speed.
The LIVERPOOL STANDARD (true to the high character
awarded to it by Blackwood, of " sifting commercial mat-
ters to their foundation") supplies us with " stagnation
in the demand," " short time," and even " closing of
factories" ! at a period of the year and in the usual cycle
of time, when the manufacturing industry of the country
resumes its wonted activity. I confess I was not prepared
for this so soon, though I have never doubted that the ab-
surdity of England receiving the easily-produced products
of other countries free, while they charge heavy duties on
the imports of her industry, would work out its own re-
sult. Apart from the high consideration of the injustice
inflicted on the agricultural interests, by such sudden and
uncalled-for legislation. lam book-keeper to a highly-
respectable mercantile house in Liverpool, and we have
not been so slack for many years as we have been during
that portion of 1850 now gone by. The partners in the
house don't seem to understand how it is, and their only
consolation is that others are in the same predicament. I
was up at Manchester a few weeks ago, and on inquiring
of my friends, one of whom is a cheese-factor, another a
shopkeeper in Deansgate, tk.c.. I was rather surprised to
receive information, that they have great reason to com-
plain of the present state of trade. " Why," I replied,
" I understood that everything was in a very flourishing
condition in the manufacturing districts." " Nothing of
the kind," I received for answer; " we ought now to be
busy; but we assure you, such is not the case." This
certainly did not comport with what had just been uttered
by Villiers, Earl Carlisle, &c ; so I waited a solution of the
matter, which yourselves and others are verifying daily,
in favour of my clients, and in direct opposition to the
" hallooing" of Ministerialists, Peelites, and repealers.
The fact is, the home trade has dreadfully fallen off ;
and how otherwise could it be ? Well, what can make up
for the loss of this trade ? Why, nothing can ! Then,
in a logical point of view, the sooner we retrace our steps
the better ; and it pleases me to see a tide rising in the
cause of protection to native industry, which, " taken in
the flood, must lead on to fortune." This rising tide—
the Conservative press—is daily augmenting, and must
soon attain its flow ; and thanks to our Morning Healds,
our Blackwoods, and our Standards, as it floods, the
slave-drivers, the child-destroyers, who have had their
short-lived day, must relapse into their native dens, the
horror and execration of the friends of humanity.

CONVEYANCE OF THE IRISH AND ENGLISH MAILS.—
We have much pleasure in congratulating the directors
and shareholders of the City of Dublin Steam Packet

Company on their successfuCcompetition for the convey-
ance of the Irish and English mails to and from Kings-
town and Holyhead, the decision of the Lords of the
Admiralty having been communicated on the part of the
company on Tuesday evening, to Charles Wye Williams,
Esq., in London. When we recollect the very satisfac-
tory manner in which the late contract with this com-
pany, in the conveyance of the mails to and from Liver-
pool, was managed—there never having been a single
instance of penalty by the Admiralty, in a period of ten
years—it speaks volumes in their favour ; and we cannot
help expressing to the public our satisfaction at their
success, especially when that success is awarded to the
Irish company who first achieved the crossing of the
Channel with trading steamers and winter navigation.
After the arrival of the news in Dublin the line of quay
from where the City of Dublin Steam Packet Company
ship and receive their exports and imports was full of
excitement with the gratifying news. The ships of the
company were dressed out with all their gayest flags, and
salvos were fired by some of the vessels.
JUVENIL.: DELINQUENTS.—At the March sessions,
which commenced here on Wednesday, the grand jury, on
closing their labours, presented to Gilbert Henderson,
Esq., the recorder, a strongly-worded recommendation of
the plan suggested by Mr. Rushton for reclaiming these
young outlaws. Mr. Rushton, in his excellent letter,
especially urged the necessities of children whose parents
train them up to crime ; but in the recorder's reply to the
presentation of the grand jury, he enumerated several
instances of an equally unhappy class of juvenile offenders,
whose parents are unable to restrain, and would willingly
relinquish the charge of them to a suitable institution, and
contribute towards their maintenance and education.
The committee of the town council appointed specially to
consider this important subject, sat on Friday, having
invited Mr. Rushton to confer with them ; and there is
now reason to hope that some effective measures will be
devised to rescue these miserable children from ruin.
The Albion states that difficulties of an •` embarrassing
character" were exhibited at the meeting in the way of
the execution of the scheme. We, however, have autho-
rity for stating that such difficulties have not as yet
appeared, inasmuch as no meeting has been held on the
subject. The various committee meetings have been
postponed, in consequence of the severe domestic affliction
recently suffered by the Venerable Archdeacon Brooks—
the certainty of whose absence from such meeting being
quite sufficient to determine their postponement.
AN TMPOSTOR.—Parties who have friends at sea, or
abroad, are cautioned against a man in the garb of a
seaman, and pretending to be such, who has found his
way into the town, and has already obtained money from
unsuspecting parties by a device at once cunning and
cruel. The fellow makes inquiry where he can in various
localities in the town and neighbourhood as to those
residents who have sons or relatives at sea, and when
primed with all the information he can elicit from neigh-
bours, he proceeds to the domiciles of the individuals,
and tells them that he has just come from such a port
abroad, where he saw the son or brother (as it may be)
of the party, who had entrusted him with a valuable
parcel to deliver to them, but that it is detained at the
Custom-house, for duty or dues, at Dublin (or elsewhere),
to which he is about to return, and that if money were
given to him to release it, he will bring it to them. The
sum he generally states as being required is 155., and he,
of course, conciliates favour and confidence by dilating
upon the excellent health and great prosperity of the
absent party. In one instance he thus imposed upon a
poor old woman living near Cabbage-hall, who has a son
at sea, and from whom he required 153. She said she
had no more than is. 6d., on which he said " he could
make that do ;" but the woman at the moment thought
of her rent, and said with regret that she could not
possibly part with it. In another instance one of the
same gang visited a lady at the south end with even more
success. So rejoiced was she to hear good tidings of- her
son, that she treated him with food and drink at her own
table, and readily gave him the 15s. It were needless to
add that he has not since been seen or heard of by either
of the parties.
DISPOSAL OF JUVENILE DELINQUENTS.---At the
Sessions on Saturday, two youths, named Price and
Thomas. we re indicted for robbing a till. Mr. Hibbert,
the barrister who prosecuted, referred to the Act of the
3d and 4th Vic., cap. 90, by which the Court of Chancery
is empowered " to assign the care of any infant convicted
cf felony during his or her minority, or any part thereof,
to any person other than the parent or guardian of such
infant, upon such terms as the court shall direct;" and
stated that Mr. Rushton, the stipendiary magistrate, in
accordance with this act, had determined to commit all
juvenile offenders for trial at the sessions, that when the
jury found them guilty the conviction might be recorded
againt them ; and then it was proposed to ask the learned
Recorder to suspend judgment, that application might be
made by the authorities to the Court of Chancery to assign
them to some person, so that attempts might be made to
reform them. The prisoner Price pleaded guilty, and
Thomas, who pleaded not guilty, was discharged. It
appeared, however, that Thomas had been in custody
before, and the Recorder expressed an opinion that be
was the most guilty of the two. It was stated, with regard
to Price, that his mother had died of cholera, and that his
father was a labouring man with four children, three boys
and one girl. There was no one to look after the children
but a person who lodged in the house. The prisoner had
not been before the court previously. The prisoner Price
was remanded that the attendance of his father might be
obtained, in order to ascertain what he would do towards
checking the evil habits of his son. We understand that,
in cacao where it is thought neccs,ary, application will bo
made to the Court of Chancery to assign such of the juvenile
prisoners as are convicted to the care of a person at the
Kirkdale Schools.
THE OLNAMENTAL SCULPTURE ON ST. GEORGE'S-
HALL.—As this sculpture will shortly be thrown open to
public view, a slight notice of it may be acceptable to our
readers. The design was furnished gratuitously by Mr.
C. R. Cockerill, Professor of Architecture at the Royal
Academy, whose taste and genius are universally acknow-
ledged. The work was executed by Mr. G. Nicholl, one
of the most skilful men of the day, under the superin-
tendence of Mr. C. L. Eastlake. The following is a brief
description of the design :—" Britannia, her spear in her
right hand, offering the olive branch with her left, is
seated on her island rock, the lion at her side, and the
Mersey or the ocean at her feet. By her side is Mercury
bringing to her the four quarters of the globe; Asia
first, with the cornucopia at her feet; America, behind
Europe, with her sword of power in her right hand,
raising Africa with her left ; and, lastly, Africa, in posture
of gratitude and humility, with her sons in her arms, the
breaking of whose chains is the work of Britannia.
Beyond is Bacchus, the panther and the wine-vase.
The other foreign products are represented by two figures
drawing to land their several cargoes. On the right of
Britannia are the English arts and products advancing to
meet the foreign Apollo. Silence holds the torch and
guides the car, and Agriculture is at her side. Behind are
the plough, the spindles and the beehive, the peasant and
his child forming a group to represent the domesticity of
England. Beyond is the metallurgy, the fabric of arms
and machinery, which she knows so well how to use."
Such is the intention of the group. The composition is
in the manner of the Parthenon, and has about the same
number of figures ; a material point, for more would be
a mob, while less might have proved insufficient. The
horses and the prows of the foreign vessels give sym-
metry to the quantities and forms, and the groups balance
on either side. The ocean below is a novelty in compo-
sition, designed to raise Britannia, and give her dig-
nity, and suits the more acute angle of the pediment than
in the Parthenon.

Mits. H. BEALE'S CONCERTS.—Friday evening last
presented the fourth and last (for the season) of a series of
performances which, whether we look at selection or per-
formance, we cannot but regard as equal to any in our
previous knowledge. The respective programmes have
announced gems from the works of the greatest masters,
with the introduction of novelties no less indicative of the
genius of the composers, than the discrimination and
sound judgement of the selector. It is with peculiar
gratification that we have to report the numerous, no less
than select audiences, which have graced the entire series
of these truly classical performances. Mrs. Beale's
claims to estimation on the score of fine taste, in conjunc-
tion with rapid and perfect execution, have placed her
unquestionably high in the splendid list of pianists, who
now place their instrument at an elevation of which it was
formerly deemed incapable. The quartett department
has been admirably sustained, in proof of which we need
only adduce the names of Willy, Herrmann, and Thomas,
as alternate first violins, and Mr. Haddock as violoncello.
We recollect no instance in which recognition of superior
talent and its due appreciation have been manifested
more decidedly than in the case of this last named gen-
tleman. The good taste and sound judgement which
selected Mr. Haddock to fill the position he now holds in
the Philharmonic Orchestra has been more than justified ;
and we cannot refrain from expressing a hope that so
unequivocal a demonstration of resident talent may tend
to diminish what we have long regarded as an injury of
the most serious description, a wilful blindness to the
wholesome merits of the products of our own soil. A
sestette by W. Sterndale Bennett, and a quintette by
Gebel, were produced for the first time in Liverpool ;
they were heard to every advantage. In the latter of
these productions we had additional cause for gratulation
in the possession of so superior an artiste as Mr. Haddock,
affording, as it did, striking instances of a peculiar apt-
ness for adopting his author's style, bespeaking what may
be termed the philosophy of art to an extent rarely to be
found. Mr. Thomas has a finished elegance, added to
tone and executive facility, which at once accounts for his
high position in the art ; and we congratulate the Phil-
harmonic Society upon the acquirements of such a clef
cretonne. We do not recollect more unalloyed gratifi-
cation than was afforded by the performance of Men-
delssohn's Trio in D minor, by Mrs. Beale. and Messrs.
Thomas and Haddock, improved as it had been immedi-
ately previous by the superb Duette of the giant Buttro-
ven, for piano and violoncello, so beautifully rendered by
Mrs. Beale and Mr. Haddock. Mozart's quartette, by
the universal delight it gave, proved that sterling air
deminishes not in value by acquaintance. We anticipate
a repetition of these concerts, no less confidently from
their intrinsic merits than the obvious discrimination and
good taste so liberally evinced by Mrs. Beale's friends and
supporters.
ANOTHER CURE OF DROPSY BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.
—Mr. Duncan, an extensive farmer, residing at the Elms,
near Boston, had been for years in a bad state of health ;
the disease assumed a swelling in the feet and ankles,
which gradually ascended until the whole of his body was
affected. Convinced, from advice, that he was labouring
under a confirmed case of dropsy, he ccasulted many of
the most eminent of the faculty, and used their remedies,
from which he derived no benefit, but became worse. In
this state he determined to try HcAlosvay's Pills, and, to
the wonder of all, this superior madicine cured him is an
incredibly short space of time.
