To THE HONOURABLE THE COMMONS OF THE UNITED KING- DOM or GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND, IN PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED. the humble Petition of the undersigned Inhabitants of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, SIIKWETH, THAT »te« method of treating various diseases, termed THE HYGEIAN SYSTEM," has for some years been practised, in connexion with the use of certain Medicines,, called MORISON'S VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL PILLS," and I which, in the experience of many of your Petitioners, have been attended with the most successful results, after the una- vailing efforts of regular Medical Practitioneis. i That the adoption of this System, and the use of the Mvdi- rises employee ■nexrwrsfver** wtecome r vailing efforts of regular Medical Practitioneis. i That the adoption of this System, and the use of the Mvdi- rises employee ■nexrwrsfver** wtecome r | Subject of great public interest and discussion; and nave I given rise to many contradictory and exaggerated state- | ments, calculated to mislead the Public. That -your Petitioners, therefore, beg most earnestly to ex- press their hope, that a subject so intimately connected with the interests of Medical Science, and the Health of the Com- munity, will be considered worthy of the attention of your Honourable House and that you will be pleased to appoint a Select Committee, by whom the principles and practice of the Hygeian System may be fully, scientifically, and impar- tially considered. And your Petitioners will ever pray, »c. Signatures for the Petition are received by all the Agents for Morison's Medicines. The doctrine of Hygeiaism has now been practised for the last ten years, during which period an immense number of cures have been performed, many after the cases had been pronounced incurable by the faculty. This system is, how. ever, assailed by the Doctors and why ? because it enables all those attacked by illness to become their own l'hysicians. J This has been, and is, the sole cause for the opposition that has been raised by the medical profession. L All that is meant by an universal remedy is, that proper purgatives have a natural and powerful tendency to expel lm- purities from the blood, and thereby restore health. The tende cy has, in thousands of cases, terminated in^ orerdiseases pronounced incurable by medica/™e" too, of every varied character but success has not attended every application of the same means (and who but a madman woukl «rSt>)-yet such failures do not prove the uns.nt- abibtvonhe practice, they only prove the unconquerable ob- stinacy of disease in advanced stages, and that life may sorae- times be terminated by its Author, regardless ol all human S means for its preservation. i/ The supporters of this system ate content to submit to any V fair and impaitial enquiry that may be instituted. Iheyear- nestly call upon every one, whether opponents or advocates, j to sign the petition.

SCaOFULA, OR SLlMCr'S EVIL, Safely, speedily, and effectually Cured, (As the following most important and well-attested case will prove,) by the use of DR. BRANDRETH'S CELEBRATED VEGETABLE PILLS. THE parents of the afflicted child, to whom the annexe 1 letter refers, feeling most grateful to the proprietor of this invaluable medicine for having been the means of re- storing their son to perfect health, and being desirous of en- abling others, similarly afflicted, to take advantage of the same means to rid themselves of this distressing and torment- ing disorder, have not only consented to every publicity be- ing given to this communication, but are ready and most inxiotis to answer every inquiry (if by letter, post paid) re- lating.to the extraordinary cure of their child, which may be seen, in order that the public may be convinced that BRAN- ORETH'S PILLS, as a thorough cleanser of the blood (from the impurity of which all diseases arise) are unequalled, and without a rival. The following is a copy of the letter :— TO DR. BRAN DRETH. Newbury, Berks, March 6,1836. Sir,—In gratitude to you, and for the benefit of mankind in general, I beg to make public the following extraordinary cure ;—My child was afflicted from infancy with scrofula, or king's evil, being covered from head to foot with runnint; sores. Although I had the best medical advice, his disorder increased so rapidly, that his case was considered hopeless one sore was no sooner healed, than another broke out. In this dilemma, I tried Morison's Pills, for three months but they did my child not the slightest good. I was at length induced to give your Pills atrial, and in the course of a month his wounds began to look healthy, and his general health be- came much improved. Only seven months ago he was t'right- fnl to look at; and he is now as clear from the disorder, and as healthy, as any child can be. I now use your Pills as a family medicine, with the most beneficial effects. I consider I should not be doing my duty in withholding these facts from those who may be similarly afflicted with scrofula. Mr. J. Rand, Market-place, Newbury, your agent here, will refeJ any person to me and I shall be most nappy to convince them of the truth of the above statement. I remain, Sir, yours obediently, c. THOS.

"Greenham, near Newbury, Berkshire, March 22,1836. 11 Sir,-I was a dreadful sufferer with a pain in my head and stomach, and was advised to try your Pills I did so, and after taking three, I felt so exceedingly sick, and some- thing appeared to rise in my throat; I could not take any more pills, but by persuasion, I was induced to try to take two dissolved in water, and very shortly afterwards I brought up a worm nine inches long, since which time I have not felt any symptoms of the kind. Your very obliged servant, CHARLES HOBBS." Witness, S. DKVEREUX, North Brook-street, Newbury." It is a well-attested fact, established by the unanimous opinion of professional men of the highest eminence, that there is scarcely one family in the kingdom in which scrofula, or king's evil, has not either manifested itself or is lurking in the blood thus rendering it an imperative duty upon all pa- rents and guardians who are anxious for the future welfare of those committed to their charge," to adopt the use of Dr. llrandreth's Pills, which is an unerring preventive where the disease has not yet become visible, and a certain and effective remedy where it has. Testimonials, speaking in the highest terms of admiration and praise of these celebrated pills, from the most distinguished members of the faculty, an almost endless number of cases, in which extraoidinary cures have I been performed, and recommendations in favour of these truly and universally acknowledged invaluable pills, may be seen at any of the agents throughout the kingdom. In consequence of the most unparalleled success, and the wonderfully increasing sale, of BRANDRETH'S VEGE- TABLE PILLS, his Majesty's Honourable Commissioners of Stamps have allowed the Proprietor (by express permis- sion) to have his name on the Government label; and the Public will observe that none are genuine unless GEO.

FOR COUGHS. COLDS, ASTHMAS, CONSUMPTION, HOARSENESS. SHORTNESS OF BREATH. PAUL'S AMERICAN BALSAM is the best remedy ever discovered for all diseases of the chest and lungs, proving efficacious in the most obstinate consumption, giving immediate ease to the asthmatic, and being a speedy cure for all long standing coughs, colds, asthmas, consumption, short- ness of breath, &c.; some have been restored to health after many other means had failed, whose frames were wasting away, and the constitution gradually sinking under the dire- ful effects of consumption—others have been cured of an in- cessant violent cough, when all around them thought that every fit of coughing would be their last, bringing to them that harbinger of peace, a gentle soothing sleep, gradually but surely diminishing its violence until perfect health has been restored. Eminent medical men have borne testimony to the extraordinary cures it has effected. Thousands are now living to esteem the Balsam as a wonderful blessing, and now recommend it to their friends. wonderful TESTIMONIALS. Mrs. Smith, Painter and Glazier's Wife, Kingsland-road, had been for many years afflicted with a violent cough, and wasting, away of the frame, which had confined her to her bed for a length of time. Several eminent medical men were of opinion that she never could recover, as consumption had taken place she had also been under the Dispensary for the cure of consumption and asthmas, but without producing the least alleviation of the disease. The husband was in- formed that Paul's American Balsam had performed very extraordi- nary cures, was determined to try it, and wonderful to relate, before she had taken three bottles, and used as a mild aperient, Paul's Dr. Baillie's Pills, she was enabled to get up and eat a mutton chop, and before the had taken five bottles she was completely restored to Health, and performed a day's ironing. Richard Gaines, of Up Ground-street, Blackfriars, I-ightcrman. fifty years old, had been troubled for twenty years with a dreadful cough, attended with shortness of breath, which used to confine him to his bed every winter for weeks, was restored to perfect health by the American Balsam, and taking as a mild aperient Dr. Baillie's Pills.

We Jinovy that Lord Ducie's elevation will give very great pleasure to all good Reformers in thecounty of Gloucester, where that nobleman has long been the object of general esteem for his devotedness to the Liberal cause.-Evenillg C/iron. NEW HousES or PARLIAMENT.-The Commissioners for superintending the building of the new Houses of Parliament decided on Thursday se'nnight, that the works, agreeably to Mr. Barry's plan, should be com- menced without further delay, and the necessary orders were immediately issued. It having been suggested that the large tower, which forms part of Mr. Barry's design for the new Houses of Parliament, might furnish a safe and convenient place for keeping the public re- cords of the country, we hear that the Treasury have taken the necessary steps for acquiring information on the subject through the department of Woods and Works. We undeistand that Mr. Barry, upon refer- ence to him, has given it as his opinion, that the pro- posed tower might be rendered available for that pur- pose.-Sunday Paper. SPRIHG ASSIZES CIRCtlITs.-The Judges met this morning for the purpose of striking the different circuits, when the following arrangements were made:—Home Circuit: Chief Justice Tindal and Mr. Justice Vaughan. —Midtand Lord Abinger and Mr. Justice Littledale. Norfolk: Mr. J. Park and J. Gaselee.—Oxford: Mr. Baron Parke and Baron Bolland.-Norlhern: Mr. Ba- ron Alderson and Justice Pattison.—Western Baron Gurney and Justice Williams.-South Wales: Mr. Jus- tice Coleridge.-North Wales Mr. J. Bosanquet. Lord Denman remains in town. THE MISSING WHALERS.—The following official mi- nute has been sent by the authority of the Treasury, to the Collectors of Customs at the various ports through- out the kingdom, who are directed to take care that the intentions of their lordships be duly carried into effect, so far as their department is concerned, observing to afford every facility, consistent with the security of the revenue, to the fitting out and departure of the vessels in question." "Treasury Chambers, 17th Jan. 1837. "Gentlemen,—I am commanded by the Lords Commis- sioners of his Majesty's Treasury, to inform you that my Lords have, in communication with the Lords of the Admi- ralty, been pleased to offer certain bouniies to vessels which may proceed to the assistance of the missing Whalers, viz. the sum of £ 300 to each of the first five vessels which may sail from any port of England or Scotland, carrying an extra quantity of provisions, provided they show by their log th;it they make the best of their way across the Atlantic, and that they reach the edge of the ice to the southward of 55 latitude and that my Lords consider that the date of I he sailing of the vessels should be certified, and the quantity of provisions should be surveyed and certified bjjhe officers of thg customs of the*port fro* which Che vessel may sail. My Lords there- fore desire that you will give the necessary directions to that effect to your officers without delay. I am, &c. F. BARING." THE PEEL BANQUET.—On Friday evening, before leaving town, Sir Robert Peel put into the hands of the secretary to the banquet the following note, enclosing a banker's draught for 200 guineas:- co Glasgow, Jan. 13, 1837. My dear Sir,—I saw with great satisfaction that in the event (not a very probable one, I fear) of the receipts of the festival of to day exceeding the expenditure, the surplus was to be placed to the account, of the public charities of the town. Be good enough, in the course of to-morrow, to place the amount of the enclosed draught to the same account. Very faithfully yours, Robert Lamond, Esq. ROBERT PEEL." — (i lasgow Cornier. DREADFUL SHIPWRECK AND Loss OF THE CREW AND PASSENGERS.—We regret to announce the loss, near Cape Lagullas, of the bark Doncaster, bound from the Mauritius to London. By this awful calamity 64 per- sons have perished. The official letter, announcing the calamity, states that nautical men attribute the loss of the vessel to an error in the allowance for currents, and not to great severity of weather. SECRET SITTINGS.—At the second meeting of the Worcester Poor Law Union, a person named Weale, an Assistant Poor Law Commissioner, requested that the reporters for the public press should be made to leave the room. This was met by a motion from Major Bund, a magistrate, that all meetings should be open meetings, as it was requisite that the public, who were so largely interested in the acts of the union, should be made ac- quainted with their proceedings. Weale opposed the motion very strenuously, the Poor Law Commissioners wishing all the transactions of the unions to be secret. The Guardians, in conformity to the Commissioners' wish, came to a resolution -a exclude the public and the press from all future meetings.— Worcester Journal. Thursday se'nnight, information was received at the various police stations, that on Wednesday night, the 4th inst. a stack of wheat, belonging to Mr. G. F. Clark, of North Ferriby, Yorkshire, was wilfully and mali- ciously set fire to, and the stack, together with four others, were completely consumed. X237 reward, sub- scribed by the owner and tenant of the estate and gen- try of the neighbourhood, is offered on the apprehension and conviction of the offender or offenders, in addition to £100 by Government; and any accomplice, not being the actual perpetrator or the deed, will, in the event of his giving such information as shall lead to the desired result, be recommended to his Majesty for pardon. A project is at present in agitation at Cheltenham, for the establishment of regular Stag Hounds, to be sup- ported by a town subscription. A preliminary meeting took place last week, at which Lord Segrave and other gentlemen of the Hunt attended. His Lordship pro- mised, in the event of the project being carried into ef- fect, not only to subscribe liberally, but also to furnish the deer. The Harriers, it is suggested, shall be given up, and the Stag Hounds substituted to hunt alternate months with the Segrave Fox Hounds, and also once a- week when the latter aie in Cheltenham. The new annual fair at the Hay, for the sale of cattle, sheep, pigS, horses, &,c. will be held on the 26ih instant. A subscription has been commenced at Brecon to raise a sum requisite to complete the exterior of the In- firmary, which will doubtless soon be obtained. The price of many articles of domestic consumption besides bread, has been higher this season than at any similar period for a number of years. Butter, for in- stance, for some weeks sold as high as Is 8d per lb.; it is now Is 6d. Bacon fetches lOd per lb., and Cheese the same. Potatoes, the crops of which appear to have been very bad this year, sell at lOd per peck. BRISTOL PoncE.—At the late Bristol Quarter Ses- sions, Sir Charles Wetherell announced the following testimony of the efficiency of this force. The following is a copy of the presentment:—"The Grand Jury, judging from the evidence brought before them on the different bills, feel it their duty to express their appro- bation of the vigilant conduct of the police in detecting robberies, and the consequent utility of the force to the borough.—Grand Jury Room, January 14th, 1837." DUBLIN, JAN. 20.—The legal appointments conse- quent on the death of Sir Wm. M'Mahon have been completed, and they will give universal satisfaction. Baron O'Loghlen goes to the Rolls, and Mr. Richards succeeds him in the Court of Exchequer. What will the Morning Post think of this? If it should make the Chief Baron run away in his dressing-gown, 'twould be rare »port, Mr. Wouifo is Attorney-Genera!, and Mr. Maziere Brady, Solicitor. The important office pf Counsel to the Chief Secretary has been offered to gif. Pigot. Tile disintefested coudoct of Mr. Richards in foregoing his claim to the first choice, which was para- mount,in favour of Baron O'Loghlen, is worthy of the highest commendation. It is not true that any stipula- tion had been made with Mr. O'Loghlen, nor could the Government have consistently refused to promote Mr. Richards to Ae Rolls, had he insio-O Dn his rights. THE LIMERICK EXPLOSION.—Arjfte termination of the inquest held on the bodies ofj^»e ^unfortunate vic- tims to lit* explosion of-gunpovt(ter in Limerick, tie Jury returned a verdict in conformity with fhe we«in- stances of the case, but conveyed a censure upon the reprehensible mismanagement which prevailed in Mr, Richardson's concerns, when considered as a depot for gunpowder. From the evidence adduced, it appeared that two casks of gunpowder arrived from Cork on the evening of the explosion and that a pound and a half had been sold out of one of them by Gurde, the shopioan, who opened it for the purpose, and threw back the covtj- carelessly on the cask, and left it in that position. After the shop was fastened up, it is supposed that Gurde be- thought himself of coopering up the cask, as it and an- other were to have been sent off to Ennis on the follow- ing morning; that with that view he reopened the shop, and that when he lighted the gas he thiew clnwlI the paper, which ignited some loose grains of cmipowdrr lying on the fioof, explosion took pla< r. The thoughtless author of this tragedy must have been tiie first victim to his own crimina. neglect. Tiip bodies of M'Mahon and of Gurde, Mr. Richardson s shopman, at length discovered in the ruins, make the number of vic- tims sixteen.

jfoteígn intelligence. FRANCE. On Tuesday the debate on Spanish affairs in the Chamber was resumed. The speeches of Thiers and Guizoi, the chief orators of each party, lay open the systems of policy upon which they have acted respec- tively. M. Thiers's speech is food for meditation; the effect which it will produce is not momentary, nor upon the hearer merely. M. Sauzet made an able speech. Speaking of the Quadruple Treaty, he said—"It meant an alliance between the four constitutional monarchies of Europe for their mutual support. The Monarchs of the North and E-tst had intervened and arranged politi- cal affairs as it pleased them in Germany and Italy. The Quadruple Treaty was signed to ai)ow the mo- narchies of the West to act on self-preservation by doing the same. You signed the treaty, and you fear to exe- cute it. It is perilous, forsooth !—you tremble-you abandon it. Shame be to two great nations if such be their motives, their faith, and their deeds! If Don Car- los become King at Madrid, will you intervene to de- throne him? You cannot, having let pass the time for preventinu his success with infinitely less efforts and ex- pense. Why, then, you must acknowledge him. You durst not; France would not permit you. As to the Quadruple Alliance the use you have made of it has been to give promises aod break them; excite hopes in tttthdftMf I have made it a great meanness and a great lie." Odillon Barrot and Mauguine followed on the same side. AH the argument was on the side of the opposition; the speeches of ministers abounded with sophisms and pre- tences they had not even the air of reality. The true reason for the conduct of Government was not stated by them that reason was that the present constitution of Spain, tempered as it was, was still based on the princi- ple of the sovereignty of the people. This the Doctri- naires could never forgive or acquiesce in. They wanted to let the present system petish in Spain by hypocriti- cally pretending to tolerate it.

MIDDLESEX COUNTY COURT, MONDAY. GAMBLING TRANSACTIONS.—Amid the vast number of knotty questions that agitate this Court, those arising out of gambling transactions formed a very prominent feature of the day, and those whose business it is to watch closely into the morality and purity of the licensing system, would have re- ceived some most beneficial hints from the observations which fell from the Learned Commissioner and the Jury yesterday. DANDO tl. GrnBINs.-The plaintiff in this case was a most remarkable looking person, and the celebrated Lawrence would have been sadly puzzled had he attempted to classify him under any peculiar species of the genus Homo for in- stance—he rejoiced in a most stupid-looking squint, his nose had been carried away in some sudden squall of fortune, and his mouth appeared to have received an irrecoverable twist in some rabid endeavour to bite off his left ear to complete his personal beauties, one leg was shorter than the other by a foot, and indeed he was not only very ill-looking, but he was looking very ill. Mr Commissioner Dubois-What is your demand of the defendant ? Plaintiff—Just vat I shall tell you myself d irectlY-Oh vat von schampt this man vill a be some day (Laughter.) As Toma' Moore say- He broke a' my pitcher, he spill a' my water, He kissa' my wife, and he marry my daughter." Commissioner—Now just be good enough to state what this sum of 1 Is Gd is for ? Plaintiff-All for gambling first de von shtflin go, and den de two de two and de two make four, and de two four make eight, and den de tree and de half make just lls 6d. Commissioner—And pray what game was this money played for ? Plaintiff-Blind hookey, my lord, and shove-halfpenny. (Laughter.) Commissioner—Swear the plaintiff-( here the plaintiff was sworn.) Now, sir, where did these gambling matters take place 1 Phinttff-Sare, in my own house a', my Loid (laughter) and he stop'd there till all his clothes was pawned and gonel Commissioner—No doubt of it; you first get all his mo: ney away, and nobody knows better what to do with his clothes. Do you mean to say you keep a public-house 1 Plaintiff-I do, my Lord but if peoples will cample, how shall I help it? Not him only alone! 1 have de summons 'gainst four of the same ting ? Commissioner- Well then, sir, I can tell you that these gentlemen (the Jury) will not trouble themselves to enter in- to them. No encouragement i will be given here for such proceedings. The case is dismissed. Plaintiff (with a look of the most savage Jewism)- Should'nt I like to make a patgain with you, old fellows. I coult puy every body in de Court. (Laughter.) A Juryman—Yes, and sell them, no doubt. Here the gambling Israelite left the Court. BROKEN GLASS.—A vast number of very stupid, but pro- bably very well-meaning landlords, are constantly in the habit of summoning individuals for broken squares of class after the tenancy has expired. In almost every case a ver- dict is given in favour of the defendant, from the inability of the plaintiff to prove whether the glass was all sound on the defendant's entering the house. A hulking-looking ex-po- liceman summoned a poor woman for the value of three squares of glass, 6s whereupon the following very knotty discussion took place :— I Mr. Dubois (to defendant)—Pray in what condition was these window^ when you took possession of the alartnlents I Were they broken or cracked ? s Defendant-Why, sir, two was brokeand one was cracked ? A Juryman-And pray dont you call a cracked window a broken one ? Defendant-In course I doesn't. Now lookee year a thing wols broke has, as a natteial consequence, got a piece out on it, and wot aint broke, you know, harn't have no piece out on it. I reglerly agrees as how the vindeys was crackcd but they was never broken. (Shouts of laughter). Commissioner—Then you draw a very delicate distinction between cracked and broken? n Defendent—Vy to be sure, and karn't you, as has been sottin on that ere seat sichawhilel Nowj fiinstence is hegg broke wot'sonly cracked, haye? and if so be as a'hepc aict't nothin worser for being cracked, vy how can a vindVr be ■>. I puts it to any body, and to that ere hintellieent aed goodlooking Jury. (Cousiderable laughter). The Jury, after a short cowultttion, dismitied the can,
