" Of the rapidity with which, under circumstances of soil and climate so peculiarly favourable, the growth admits of being extended by due encouragement, an in ference may be drawn, not only from the success of ex periments which have already been made in that •settle ment, but from analogy of what has occurred under circumstances less favourable in the instance of Geiman wool. - Thirty years ago, few, if aGy, Merino flocks of sheep existed in Saxony, or in the other States of Ger many; and yet by the introduction of that breed from Spain, and the encouragement of sheep-farming, so rapid has been the extension of the growth of wool, that in addition to the increased consumption which these States have had to supply on the continent of Europe, they have furnished an export to this country, that has progressively advanced, until it amounted last year to more than 12 millions of pounds. This extraordinary increase, it is to be observed, has taken place notwith- I standing the difficulties arising from an unfavourable climate, which renders it necessary to keep the flocks under sheds for a considerable part of the year, and to feed them during that time on dry food, raised and IN e pared at great expense. " In New South Wales, from the mildness of the seasons, and the dryness of the soil, such protection and artificial treatment beionse unnecessary. With these natural advantages, therefore, together with the protec tion of British institutions, and the influence of capital, it is not indulging in too sanguine our' anticipation, to look forward to the time when our manufacturers will derive their chief supplies of fine wool from an Eng lish colony, at a lower price than that at which they can now be imported from countries where the severity of the winter renders artificial treatment necessary, and increases the cost of production. " The value of New South Wales wool is attested by the most eminent manufacturers, who state that inLi e . pendently of the fineness of the fibre, it has Ole quality of being peculiarly soft to the touch, partaking, in this respect, of the nature of fur, and is therefore preferable, for various uses, to wool of any other growth. " The introduction, therefore, of wool so line in qua lity that it is calculated to improve and mead the general manufacture, whilst, from the nature of the soil and climate, this superiority is obtained at a less cost of production than it can be from any existing sources, is of itself an important consideration; but this consideration dlone conveys a very inadequate idea of the commercial advantages which may be eventually derived from the application of capital to an extended production of wool in New South Wales ; for it is not only a successful competition with more costly sources of foreign supply, to satisfy the present scale of dc. wand in the British mai ket, that may be contemplated ; but it is fairly to be assumed, that the nature of the market for this commodity, extensive as it now is, affords the prospect of great and almost indefinite en largement.

THE Public ate earnestly warned against numerous Imitations of Doctor SOLOMON'S CORDIAL BALM OF GILEAD, put forth by several unprincipled individuals to ensnare and deceive. The great reputation so long enjoyed by that excellent medicine for the cure of nervous complaints, declines, and diseases induced by excessive indulgencies, and the great demand for it, have tempted the worthless and unprincipled to this nefarious practice, by which many invalids have been irreparably injured. These imitations extend not only to the name of this medicine, but to the advertisements, wrappers on the honks, and every distils :Wolin mark except that which would involve the life of the de predator, namely, the words" Samuel Solomon, Liverpool," engraved on the Government Stamp affixed to each bottle, to imitate which is felony, and punishable as such. To this distinguishing mark the public attention is particularly directed, without which no 44 Cordial Balm" whatever has any claim to the merits of Dr. Solomon's invention. Ladies of a cold, acrid, or bilious habit of body, affected with languor, head-ache, or hysterical affections, cannot have recourse to a more salutary remedy than Somossoe's Commix flaws Or GILRAD. To Gentlemen from the East or West Indies, the Student from public seminaries, or those whose occupations require a sedentary life, this medicine has proved a sheet anchor, effecting wonderful cures in cases of debility, originating -from heat of climate, or re laxations from juvenile indiscretions, and the effect, of intense ap plication to study or business. It is peculiarly efficacious in all inward wasting', loss of appetite, indigestion, depression of spirits, trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs. shortness of breath, and consumptive habits. Er The genuine medicine is prepared at Gilead-House, near Li verpool, and sold by Mr. R.

THE CHEAPEST AND BEST MEDICINE FOR COUGHS COLDS, AND ASTHMAS. CHURCH'S COUGH DROPS for recent Colds, ob stinate Coughs, and confirmed Asthma., stand unrivalled. Its reputation for fifteen yearn past, and the various testimonies of its efficacy, is a sufficient proof of the estimation- in which it is held for all Asthmatic Affections, recent Colds and Coughs, how ever obstinate, and all disorders of the Breast and Lungs, Con gealed Phlegm, Acrimony in the Fluid., and Obstructions in the Glands, are gently and safely discharged by easy expectoration. Wheezings and Uneasiness in Breathing are speedily removed by a few doses. It never disagrees with the stomach; a common Cold yields to its benign influence in a few hours, and when resorted to before the complaint is far advanced, all danger of Consumption is I certainly prevented.

MERCURY. ►rHE late Mr. JOHN HUNTER, the British Oracle 1. • on the subject of Mercury, though he could not allow facts to subdue his prejudice, that it made a part of all effectual pre parations for all the forms of the Venereal Disease, says, in his cele. bnted Work, that he found many cases where a sufficient quantity fur a cure would kill the Patient. He therefore generally ordered the VEGETABLE SYRUP of DE V ELNOS' to follow a mer curial course. In this he is imitated by the first practitioners of the country, as the healthy action of the constitution is by no other Medicine so speedily restored, when its irritability is weakened— when new diseases arise from Dlercury itself—and when nervous, paralytic, and consumptive symptoms, menace a lingering and mi serable eath. The Genuine Medicine, which is a safe though a powerful substitute for Mercury in all cases, is sold by Mosul; CANIIAU, nephew and successor to the late Isaac Swainsun, at No. 52, Berners-street, Oxford-street, at 13s. a bottle; and by all the reputable Medicine Venders In the United Kingdom ; and the Cone.entrated, for *arm climates, by bis deputed Agents in the tast Indies. ellosti-street, merchant, at ten.

It is therefore evident that the supply has barely kept pace with the rate of consumption, and as there is every reason to anticipate that the causes which hove, for some years past, led to so great and progre.- sive an extension of demand will continue in operation, it may fairly be concluded that the utmost probable in crease of production will be absorbed by an increasing consumption. Nor is it unimportant to observe, that Great Britain is now dependent upon Spain and Ger many for the supply of an article of vital necessity to the ancient staple of the country; and that, whilst by promoting the giowth of it in New South Wales, an in. tercourse will be established highly beneficial to the proprietor, the ship-owner, and the manufacturer at home, the supply itself will be rendered less liable to in terruptions from rival or hostile policy. " As it appears, then, that New South Wales presents many exclusive advantages for an extensive production of fine wool, the demand for which being actuaily very great, and capable of almost indefinite increase, there can be no doubt that the establishment of Merino flocks forms the most important and promising object for the , expenditure of capital: but, coincidently with the pur suit of that object, although subordinate to it, ale seve ral valuable productions which may be cultivated with the pi ospecrof ample returns for the labour and capital employed.
