This having been a subject of much inquiry induces Messrs. FUTVOYE and CO. to acquaint the Nobility and Gentry that they have not any Establishment in the Crystal Palace, and the reason is, that th3y supplied so many of the Exhibitors at the Exhibition of 1851, as well as at those of Dublin and New York. It must, therefore, be obvious to all that were they to become Exhibitors it would be opposing some of their largest consumers. Many of their Patents, Registered Articles, and other manufactures, may be obtained o: the Retailers at the Crystal Palace, or at Messrs. Futvoye and Co.'s Manufactory and Wholesale Warehouse, 154, Regent-street ; 8, 11, and 12, Beak street; 28 and 29, Silver-street; and 94, Rue de Rivoli, Paris. BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.

The most effectual remedy for Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, Gout, Chronic Rheumatism, and all Scrofulous Diseases. Approved of and recommended by 13ERZELIUS, LIESIO, WOEHLER, JONATHAN PEREIRA, FOUQUINR, and numerous other eminent medical men and scientific chemists in Europe. Specially rewarded with medals by the Governments of Bel. gium and the Netherlands. Has almost entirely superseded all other kinds on the Conti. vent, in consequence of its proved superior power and efficacy— effecting a cure much more rapidly. Contains iodine, phosphate of chalk, volatile acid, and the ele manta of the bile—in short, all its most active and essential principles—in larger quantities than the pale oils made in Eng land and Newfoundland, deprived mainly of these by their mode of preparation. A pamphlet by Dr. de Jongh, with detailed remarks upon its superiority, directions for use, and cases in which it has been prescribed with the greatest effect, will be forwarded gratis on application. The subjoined testimonial of the late Dr. JONATHAN PERE. IRA, Professor at the University of London, author of "The Elements of Materia Medics and Therapeutics," is selected from innumerable others from medical and scientific men of the high est distinction:— " My dear was very glad to find from you, when I had the pleasure of seeing you in London, that you were interested commercially in Cod Liver Oil. It was fitting that the author of the best analysis and investigations into the properties of tins oil should himself be the purveyor of this important. medicine. "I feel, however, some diffidence in venturing to fulfil your request by giving you my opinion of the quality of the oil of which you gave me a sample ; because I know that no one can be better, and few so well, acquainted with the physical and die. mical properties of this medicine as yourself, whom I regard as the highest authority on the subject. " I can, however, have no hesitation about the propriety of re spending to your application. The oil which you gave Ins was of the very finest quality, whether considered with reference to its colour, flavour, or chemical properties ; and I am satisfied that for medicinal purposes no finer oil can be procured. " With my best wishes for your success, believe me, my dear sir, to be very faithfully young, (Signed) "JONATHAN PEREIRA. "Finsbury-square, London, April 16, labl. " To Dr. de Jongh."
