They are made of different power, to suit ex treme and every degree of Deafness. To be procured only of the sole inventor and maker, F. C. REIN, DK STRAND nearly opposite Exeter•hall, where the Instrument can be tried and numerous testimonials seen; amongst many. one from the Right lion. Sir John Patteson, one of her Majesty's Privy Councillors. THE SYDENHAM TOP COAT is made from the best Materials, by Workmen of cultivated taste, at t h e moderate aura of Two Guineas; the appreciation of the fashion able wotld of genuine anti perfect Articles of Dress renders the success of the Sydenliam Top Coat a certainty.—SAMUEL !MOTHERS, 29, Ludgate-hill. WHAT'S IN A NAME ?—This query can he answered by SAMUEL BROTHERS, 29, Ludgate•hill, the Inventors of the SYDENHAM TROUSERS, 173. 61.; for in the fashionable world there is associated with the Sydenham Trousers a perfect idea synonymous with a graneful, easy, and well•fitting garment WHITE and SOUND TEETH are indispen sable to personal appearance and to health and longevity, by the proper mastication of rood. RO WLAN DS' ODu TO, or Pearl Dentifrice, preserves and imparts a Pearl•like white ness to the teeth, strengthenq the gums, and renders the breath sweet and pure. Price 2s. 9d. per box. sold at 20, Hatton. garden, London, and by chemists and perfumers. VICOLL'S NEW REGISTERED PALETOT 11 has all those advantages which secured such general popu rarity to Messrs. Nicoll's original Paletot, that is to say, it avoids giving to the wearer an outré appearance, so that professional men son all others can use it during morning and afternoon in or out of doors. Secondly, there is an absence of unnecessary seams, well known to secure a more graceful outline, as well as to effect a great saving in wear; the latter advantage is consi derably enhanced by the application of a peculiar and neatly stitched binding, the mode of effe .ting which is patented. Great exertions are being made to supply Messrs. Nicoll's agents throughout the country and the colonies with an assortment of this new garment simultaneously with the display in London, but it is necessary to inform the public that a 1 Messrs. Nicoll's manufactures may be distinguished by a trade mark, consisting of a silk label attached to each specimen ; to copy this is fraud, and may be thus detected. If the garment is dark-coloured, the label has a black ground, with the firm's name and address woven by the Jacquard loom in gold-coloured silk ; if the gar ment is light-coloured, the label has a pale drab ground, and red silk letters. Each Paletot is marked in plain figures , at a fixed moderate price, and is of the best materials. In London the NEW REGISTERED PALETOT can alone be had of 11. J. and D. NICOLL, 114 116, 118, 120, Regent-street, and 24, Cornhill. A NEW DEPARTMENT FOR YOUTH, 140. IT J. and D. NICOLL recommend for an Out 4. side Coat the Havelock, and for ordinary use the Cape Suit, such being well adapted for Young Gentlemen, as exhi biting considerable economy with general excellence. Gentlemen at Eton, Harrow, Win c h es t er , t h e Mili tary and Naval Schools, waited on by appointment. A great variety of materials adapted for the Kilted or Highland Costume, as worn by the Royal Princes, may be seen at WARWICK HOUSE, 142 and It 4, Regent-street. FOE LADIES. VICOLL'S PATENT HIGHLAND CLOAK is a combination of utility, elegance, and comfort. No Lady having seen or used such in travelling for morning wear or for covenng full dress would willingly be without one. It somewhat resembles the old Spanish Roquelalre, and has an elaattc Capuctue Hood. It is not cumbersome or heavy, and measures from twelve to sixteen yards round the outer edge, falling in graceful folds from the shoulders ; but by a mechanical contrivance (such being a part of the Patent) the wearer can Instantly form semi.eleeves, and thus leave the arms at liberty at the same time the Cloak can be made as quickly to resume its original shape. The materials chiefly used are the soft neutral coloured shower-proof Woollen Cloths manufactured by this firm. The price will be two guineas and a half for each Cloak; but with the Wehanique and a lined Hood a few shillings more is merged. This department is attended to by Cutters, who pre. pare Mantles of all kinds, with Velvet, Fur, or Cloth Jackets, either for in or out door use. These at all times—like this l'inn's Riding Habit—are in good taste and fit well. Female attendants may also be seen for Pantalons des Dames b. Choral, partially oompo , .ed of Chamois. As no measure is required, the fsatent Highland Cloak can be sent at once to any part of the Country and is thus well adapted for a gift. H.J. and D.

THE FOLLOWING is an EXTRACT f.om the Second Edition (page 188) of the Translation of the Pharmacopoeia of the Royal College of Physicians in London, by WA.). le. Coiner, puolished by Longman and Co. :—" It is no small defect in this compilation (speaking of the Pharmacopoeia) that we have no purgative mass but what contains aloes; yet we know that htemorrhoidal persona cannot bear aloes, except it be in the form of COCKLE'S PILLS, which chiefly consist of aloes, scammony, and colocynth, which I think are formed into a sort of compound extract, the acridity of which is obviated, I suspect, by an alkaline process, and by a fourth ingredient (unknown to me) of an aromatic tome nature. I think no better and no worse of it for its being a patent medicine. I look at it as an article of commerce and domestic convenience, and do not hesitate to say it is the best made pill in the kingdom ; a mus cular purge, a mucous purge, and a hydrogogue purge com• bined, and their effects properly contro►led Dy a di. igent and corrigent. That it does not commonly produce htcmorrhoids like most Cootie pills, I attribute to ita being thotoughly so »table, so that no undissolved particles adhere to the mucous membrane." DR.
