country

We are satisfied that it is in the power of the legis-
lature, and it is its duty to correct the evils, if not to

Put down altogether this system of pauper migration.
We would not restrict the efforts of the poor them-
selves
to benefit their condition by removing in the di-
rection of the demand for their labour; but is it just,
wo ask, that the manufacturers of Lancashire, or York-
shire, should be able to wield over the heads of their
wcirking population the enormous powers at the dis-
posal of the Somerset-house triumvirate ; and that
when their object—the swamping of the labour market
--has been effected, or the activity of demand been
converted into inactivity, they should be able to close
!'heir factories, and leave the deluded immigrants to die
24 the streets or wander back to their native parishes
unaided ? Surely this should not be ; and the only

remedy which we can discover is such an alteration of
the
law of settlement as would bind the labourers, thus
seduced from their homes, to the soil and the wealth
which they have aided to create. At present this does
not
Occur. Not one labourer in a hundred of those
° brought into the manufacturing districts acquires a
hsettlement there ; and the capitalist who has tempted
I°l to those districts can thus hold over him, as an
i
nesistible inducement to accept insufficient wages, in
Periods
of dullness, the prospect of removal, as a pall-
Per, to the dreaded bastile of his distant parish, and of
iseparation from those branches of his family who may
have become connected with the scene of his suffering,
°Y ties or affections which cannot be broken.
In conclusion—for the present, at least—we recom-
rt end this subject to the earnest attention of the legis-
lature, and of those of our contemporaries who have at
heart the real welfare of the working population of the
"ernlntry. That population ?must be relieved from the

HILL AT VITTORIA
clear and cloudles

-The sun of the 21st of June rose

The allied columns stood to their arms

and marched from their bivouacs on the Bavas, in the assured
hope of a day of glory. Lord Wellington disposed the army
in three corps. The right under Sir Rowland Hill ; the left
under Sir Thomas Graham; while the centre,• consisting of
four divisions, formed in two columns, received orders more
immediately from himself. In the right corps was the allied
division under Sir William Stewart, the Portuguese division
under the Conde de Amarante, and a division of Spaniards
under Murillo. In the centre were the divisions of Sir Lowry
Cole and Baron Alien, and those of Lord Dalhousie, and Sir
Thomas Picton. On the left with Sir Thomas Graham, were
the first division and General Oswald's ; also two brigades of
cavalry, and the Spanish division of Longa. The centre of
the enemy's position was so strong, and it was defended by
such enormous batteries of field artillery, and so large a force,
that any attempt to pierce it was not hopeful or prudent;
though the immense extent of line from Abecbuca to Pu-
ebla would, with a less formidable post for the centre, have
favoured such an attack. As it w- 't be' 4.

71st Light Infantry under the Honourable Colonel Cadogan.
The Spaniards ascended the steep heights of Puebla with
great spirit, and were soon engaged with the enemy, who
kept up a very hot fire of musketry on their advance.
Murillo behaved admirably; he was wounded, but kept the
field, and continued the combat with good countenance, till
the support of Colonel Cadogan came to his aid. The enemy
reinforced this point strongly, and a severe struggle ensued ;

but they were at length driven back, though not without
having inflicted a heavy loss on the allies. • The 71st regiment
lost 400 men ; and Cadogan, the heroic commander of that
gallant corps, fell mortally wounded at its head;

The heights of Puebla thus won, Sir Rowland Hill directed
two brigades of the second division to carry the village and

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 24.
The present is a season when all business transactions are
generally restricted to a narrow compass ; and this, added to the
feelings of distrust occasioned by the recent heavy failures in York-
shire, has caused much depression in the trade. At Liverpool
yesterday a fair business was done in Wheat at full prices. At
Wakefield, on the contrary, the market, influenced no doubt by
the circumstances above referred to, was flat and lower for all
articles. At our Exchange to-day, little is passing to call for any
particular remark. The depression in the Flour trade prevents any
purchases of Wheat by our millers beyond what they immediately
require, and they are, enabled to supply themselves at prices a shade
lower than on this day week. Flour declining fully Is per sack,
with very slow demand. Oats dull of sale at late rates. Meal is
again 6d per load cheaper, with but a limited enquiry. Beans is
per carter cheaper. Malt steady at former rates.

DINNEFORD'S PURE FLUID MAGNESIA

Under the immediate sanction of the PRESIDENT of the

COLLEGE of PHYSICIANS.
FOR ACIDITIES, HEARTBURN, HEADACHE, GOUT,
INDIGESTION, &C.

rIIHE high testimonials received in favour of Mr a inne-
-1 ford's preparation from the most eminent .. ..bers in
every branch of the medical profession, has e ;Wished its
superiority on an irrefragable basis, and place. tat once be-
yond the reach of competition.
Dr. WILKINSON, of Bath, whose famil. rity with prac-
tical chemistry so well entitles his opini. to respect, says,—
" A bottle of the FLUID MAGNESIA SIR JAMES MUR-
RAY'S, sent to me for analyzation by a hemist in this town,
gave me seven grains of Magnesia, and three grains of Sul-
phate of Soda to the ounce, whilst yours yielded SEVEN-
TEEN GRAINS OF PURE MAGNESIA to the ounce. I consci-
entiously bear testimony to the correctness of the above re-
sults.

(Signed) " C. H. WILKINSON, M.D.
" Dated Oct. 23d, 1840."
This conclusive testimony is further corroboratcl by the
following distinguished persons :
W. T. BRANDE, Esq., F.R.S., Professor of Chemistry
of the Royal Institution, &c.
DR. PARIS, F.R.S., Author of the Pharmacologia, &c ,
&c.

DR. COLLIER, Translator of the Pharmacopreia, Lec-
turer on Pharmaceutical Chemistry, &c.

JEROME MORGAN, Esq., Surgeon to the General
Dispensary, and Practical Chemist, Dublin ;—who also ana-
lysed Sir James Murray's compound.
Sir HENRY HALFORD says: " I have seen the machinery
and the process by which you prepare the PURE Solution of
Magnesia, and have been much pleased by all that I have
seen ; the preparation is a very good one."
Sir CHARLES M. CLARKE says : " The Solution of Mag-
nesia, prepared by Mr. Dinneford, is a very useful and
agreeable preparation."
Sir DAVID DAVIES says : " I consider it FAR SUPERIOR
to any other preparation of the kind that I have seen ; this I
attribute to the perfect manner in which Mr. Dinneford con-
ducts the process."
Dr. GAIRDNER says : " I have prescribed your Solution
of Magnesia extensively; I have also made trial of the same
remedy prepared by others, and am satisfied, that, for PU-
RITY and STRENGTH, yours deserves a very DECIDED PRE-
FERENCE." _ _ _

The Acidulated Lemon Syrup, usually sold with the So-
lution, makes the moot agreeable saline draughts, and mate-
rially increases the aperient quality.—Prepared by Dinneford,
Family Chemist to her Majesty the Queen Dowager, 172,
New Bond-street. _ _

CAUTION :-Be careful to ask for DINNEFORD'S Puns
FLUID MAGNESIA, to avoid the substitution of the impure
Irish preparations, which are imported in leaden and other
deleterious metallic vessels: their impurity may be readily
detected by the TASTE, and is even obvious to the SIGHT.
None can be relied upon as genuine, unless the Houee
Stamp of the Proprietor be pasted over the Cork of each
Bottle. - - - . . . - . -

IHE Friends of a LADY of the Established Church,
aged twenty-four, who is now in Irelatfd, but who pur-
poses to be in Liverpool soon, wish, prey' usly, to negociate
with a Family of serious character, o may require her
services as a GOVERNESS, and o would be likely to
46
value her for her sound religious r. ciples, as well as for her
capability as a teacher. Her ac • ements are Music, Sing-
ing, Drawing, French, and Italia , besides the usual routine
of an English Education, in the more solid branches of which
she is particularly well instructed. She has had experience
in Teaching, is steady and self-possessed in her manner, and
having been taught in order to teach is likely to obtain a just
influence over the minds of her Pupils. Terms, Fifty
