JULLIEN has the honour to announce that his ANNUAL SERIES of CONCERTS will commence on MONDAY NEXT, November 6th, Itt3s. During the interval which has elapsed since his last Concerts, M. Jullien has neglected no opportunity of Improving his Or chestra, but has endeavoured to add to its efficiency, both in the selection of its individual members as well as in its general construction. The wind instruments of wood will be doubled, there being two principal and two second flutes, two principal and two second clarioneta, two principal and two second oboes, and two principal and two second bassoons—thus correcting that balance of sound which has been greatly injured by the uni versal practice, both in England and on the Continent, of making large additions to the stringed, without a corresponding increase in the wind instruments. M. Jullien has also established Orches tral Classes of Instruction for the different instruments, and will have the honour of introducing some of the Pupils of the Violoncello and Alto Classes, who will perform separate piece■ of Concerted Music, as well as in the General Orchestra. In order to add to this year's Concerts every possible attrac tion, M. Jullien has engaged that celebrated Prima Donna, MADAME GASSIER, whose success in Spain, Italy, and lately in Paris and England, has been almost unbounded. Mine. Gassier will have the honour of appearing on the OPENING NIGHT. In addition to the classical compositions of the great masters, the following new music by M. Jullien will be performed during the Concerts:— A Grand Fantasia from " TI Trovatore." A Grand Fantasia from Verdi's last New Opera, " Les Vepres _ Sioniennes." New Valee, "La Rose et la Violette." New Valse, " Donna Mobile." New Value, " The Belle of the Village." New Quadrille, "The Quadrille Francitise." besides several other New Value, Polkas, Schottisches, Varso viennes, &c.. and A NEW GRAND DESCRIPTIVE QU►DRILLE, entitled " THE FALL OF SEBASTOPOL." _ The Theatre will be fitted with an entirely New Decoration, and the whole carpeted and warmed.

" I have frequently had occasion to analyse the Cod Liver Oil which is sold at your establishment. I mean that variety which is prepared for Medicinal use in the Loffoden Isles, Norway,and sent into commerce with the sanction of Dr. Ds JoNon, of the Hague. In all eases I have found it possessing the same set of pro• perties, among which the presence of cholaic compounds and of odine in a state of organic combination are the most remark. able : in fact, the Oil corresponds in all its characters with that named ' Hullo brunet and described as the best variety in the masterly treatise of Da.
