      then adjourned . —In the House of Commons , on Monday , after a lengthened discussion , the Bill for the Representation of the People was withdrawn . "The Offences against the Person Bill was read a second time . The other orders of the . day were then disposed of , and the House adjourned at . half-past one o'clpclc .- ^ -In the House of Lords , on Tuesday , the Duchy of Cornwall Limitation of Actions Bill went through committee . The Union of Benefices Bill was recommitted , and several verbal alterations agreed on . —In the House of Commons , which sat at 22 . o ' clock , the House went into committee on the Annuity Tax Abolition ( Edinburgh ) Bill ; clauses up to 13 were agreed to . and the sitting was suspended at 4 o ' clock . At the evening sitting , Lord Palmebston , in answer to questions put to him by Mr . Shebidan respecting Sicily and Naples , said that

      British ships of war had been sent by the Admiralty to Messina , and other places in Sicily , and also to Naples , for the protection of British subjects . The barbarities that had been practised by the Governments of Rome and Naples were , he said , a disgrace to the age and to civilization , and when the Governments of those places applied to friendly Powers to check the revolutionary movements , they seemed to forget that they themselves were the cause of those revolts . Sip C . Wood moved for leave to bring in a Bill to repeal so much of the 22 nd and 23 rd Victoria as enables the Secretary of State for India to raise men for Her Majesty ' s local European forces in India .

Olive opposed the amendment , which , after a long discussion , was negatived by 187 to 71—majority 107 . On the question that the clause should stand part of tlie Bill , Mr . LipDEi-i ., upon the ground that it proposed to apply tb- mining a restriction which was eiifbrcecLin the case of no

      other industrial interest ; moved as an -amendment that the clause should be struck out . Lord A . V . Temjpest seconded the amendment .

      The Mysterious Power Of The Magnet Is Mo...

      The Mysterious power of the Magnet is most beautifully developed by TVIrJ ' T . HEaaiNG ;~ bf ^ 2 T ^ tfs 1 n ~ gM Brushes and combs , which are the Remedy for Grey Hair , Weak or Falling Hair , Neuralgia , Nervous Headache , Rheumatism , Stiff Joints , & c . His Teazle Brushes for Cloth , Velvet , & c , are admirable ; they not only cleanse , but preserve the fabric in a remarkable manner . The , Public are cautioned against Counterfeits . \ Advertisement . ~ \ " Beware Of Counterfeits" is a caution which , however old and unheeded , loses nothing of its necessity at the present day , when scarcely any article , of domestic use , possessing more than common merit , is exempt from cheap and trashy imitations , the makers of which , by tempting shopkeepers with larger profits , induce them to palm off the spurious articles for the genuine . As an example of this we may instance the following : Three ladies called lately at a respectable grocery establishment , and inquired at the proprietor his reason for not sending them the GiiENFiKiD Patent Starch as before ; upon which , he made some frivolous excuse ; but the ladies administered to him a severe rebuke , and requested him to send at once and remove the trashy imitation which he had sent them ; remarking , that if he had no Gmcnfiei . d they would procure it elsewhere . This shopkeeper , no doubt , felt too keenly the humiliation of having such a well-merited rebuke openly administered to him in his own shop to attempt a repetition of such deception , and it would be well if all shopkeepers who are guilty of similar practices would thereby take warning . When we hear of such practices we can more fully realize the importance of the advice , " When you ask for Gmsnkikld Patent Stahch , see that you get it . " R . Wotherspoon is on each packet . The Damage caused by Sparrows to this Growing Crops , — At a certain season of the year , when the arable fields of happy England are assuming the golden and luxuriant embellishment , myriads of house and hedge . row sparrows may bo observed in every field , plucking the golden berry from the ear , and even destroying ten times the quantity they consume ; indeed Mr . M'Culloch states that to estimate the quantity of wheat destroyed by sparrows at only two pints per acre in England and Wales , it will occasion a loss of 16 , 080 quarters of wheat . This does hot take into « ccount the injury occasioned by the same cause to the rye , oats , barley , peas , and various sorts of seeds , both in the fields and gardens . We are glad to find , however , by our advertising colums , that an important invention has come into , use , by which these destructive and rapacious gourmands may be destroyed , when ruralising throughout the lengthened hours of a summer's day in such destructive and injurious practices . " Darber ' s Poisoned Wheat" is the invention referred to , and , from the testimonials which he has received from farmers of great experience , wo have every reason to believe the remedy he has supplied will materially diminish the cause of so much complaint . —The County Chronicle and Surrey Iferafd , May . 2 . 0 , I 860 .

      The Postmaster has decided that the Society of xVrts' Prize Writing-case , for which they awarded the prize of twenty guineas and their silver medal to Parkins and Gotto , can be sent through the post for 4 d ., so that this extremely useful and durable waterproof case , fitted with writing-paper , envelopes , blotting-bpok , metal pencase , with reserve of pens , & c-., Sc , can be sent free through the post to any part of the kingdom , on sending twenty-eight stamps to Parkins and Gotto , 24 and 25 , Oxford brreet , London . It forms a most appropriate present . Selling price at their stationary warehouse , 2 s . each . Their Sample Packet containing fifty kinds .

If not , you should immediately inquire of your perfumer for a list of R . Hovenden's Proprietary articles , such as Churcher ' s Toilet Cream , Churchers Preservative Hair Wash , Hovenden ' s Bear ' s Grease , the cheapest articles for the Toilet ever offered to the public .
