THE IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

London, Feb. 23. Under Mr Chaplin’s Small Holdings Bill County Councils will, be given power to borrow for the purpose of purchasing lands, and will be allowed to sell between one acre and fifty acres, the annual value not to exceed £SO. One quarter of the money is to be paid down at time of purchase ; one quarter to be a perpetual rent charge redeemable at will, and the balance is to extend over 50 years. The leases are not to exceed 10 acres. Sir W. Y. Harcourt said he desired to see compulsory sale. The Bill was read a first time amid cheers. Sir Samuel Smith, M.P. for Flintshire, has moved for the disendowment of the Welsh church. Feb. 25. A motion tabled in the House of Commons by Mr Samuel Smith, member for Flintshire, providing for the disestablishment of the Welsh Church was rejected by a majority of 47, Holloway s Oi v * rMENT AND Pills. — Counsel tor • Delicate. —Those to whom Ofin OATI(3 " , of changeable temperature are protracted periods of trial should seek the earliest opportunity of removing all obstacles to good health. This cooling 1 Ointment, perseveringly rubbed upon the skin, is the most reliable remenyfor overcoming all diseases of the throat and chest. Quinsey, relaxed tonsils, sore throat, swollen glands, ordinary catarrh, and bronchitis, usually prevailing at this season, may be arrested as soon as discovered, and every symptom banished by Holloway’s simple and effective treatment. The Ointment and Pills are aighly commended for the facility with which they successfully conquer influenza : they allay in an incredibly short time the distressing fever and teasing cough.
