READING SAUCE COCKS, the Inventor and Proprietor of the 0 • CHLEIntATED READING SAUCE, begs most re spectfully to caution the Nobility, Families, and the Public, against the daily frauds and impositions practised . by many London and Country °lnnen and Fish Sauce Venders, to deceive and deprive them ul the GENUINE READING SAUCE. None are genuine hut those which have the corks sealed with the impression, J. Clicks, Reading," and also the full iwing descrip tion of the Sauce on an orange-coloured label, " Reading Sauce for Fish, enriching Gravies, &c. Prepared and Sold, Wholesale and Retail, by J. COCKS, Reading." 'rids Sauce is generally used at table with all sorts of Fish, in preference to all other Fish Sauces, and is esteemed peculiarly deli cious with Game, Wild Fowl, Hashes, Steaks, and Cold Meat.—. Warranted to keep good Seven Years in any climate. It is presumed that no Sauce ever met with such general approbation and extensive sale. It is patronised and recommended by most of the F 111.42 Faunae% in the Kingdom, and is retailed in London by 250 of the most respectable Oilmen and Nish Sauce Venders; in Bath, by 50 ; Bristol, , 20 ; Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth, and Aber-, deen, 50; and by nearly all the principal Fish Sauce Dealers in the United Kingdom, most of whom sell Cocits's Genuine and Superior Essexca of Aticuovtas, made with prime Gorgona Fish, rich as possible. FOR PRESERVING TIIE TEETH AND GUMS. rpHE VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER has so long been in general use that it is unnecesaary to offer any fur ther recommendation of it. Composed of Vegetables, without the admixture of any Mineral or pernicious ingredient whatever, it is free from the usual objection against the uie of other Dentritlces. Its detersive power is just sufficient to annihilate those destructive particles which adhere to the Gums and the Interstices of the Teeth ; healing injuries in the former, and promoting a new enamel (where it has Men injured or corroded) on the latter. It likewise imparts a firmness and healthy redness to the gums ; and if used re gulat ly, will preserve the teeth iu a sound state to old age add in boxes, at 2s. 91 .by BUTLER, Chemi.t, 4, Cheapside, St. Paul's; 220, tegent-.treet (near the Argyle Rooms), London; and by the principal Medicine - Venders throughout the United rf Be careful to ask for BUTLER'S VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER ; and to observe the name and address " BUTLER, 4, Cheapside," arc engraved on the stamp and label attached to each box of this esteemed Dentrifice, to distinguish it from 'SIMMONS under sled lat. titles. The most obvious fact to be noticed, is the 2reat: saving in distance, which the vessels passing from the Irish or Bristol Channel into the English and vice verse, will effect by using the pr.posed Canal, in stead of going 10un..1 the Land's End, and which saving cannot ba reckoned at less thin 300 miles. This, mulct common circumstances, may, I apprehend, be consi dered as a sitting of six days, for a direct advance on, the age of fifty miles per day, t , ill be found to be beyond eyt v Z the averso rate of saving of coasting vessels.' . In the difficnit wantical directi•ins for navigating the Evglisio and litistol Channels, it is stated by tome that ue,:erly winds prevail for months, in others that they prevail for nine months in the year. The truth, I believe, lies between them. _ To vessels, therefore, proceeding round the Land's End into, the It i,ll or Bristol Channels, or from - these Channels to London, and ti eother r'orts in the English Channel and Germanic Ocean, there ate about nine chances out of twelve that they will meet with contraty winds during one half their voyage. Looking then to this last circumstance, as well as to the saving in distance, I am quite sure that vessels na vigating between the above-named points will, on an average through:rut the year, save fully a week's sail in each passage out and heme, by using the Canal instead of going round the Land's End, reckoning that the pas sage of a vessel, through it will occupy about a day and a half, for the width of the Canal being ninety•fise feet, vessel will be able to pass each other with facility, and as it has on the while a level range of thirty-four miles for navigation uninterrupted by locks; and as mot c over the direction of the Canal will be nearly north and south, whenever the wind shall blow from the eastward or from the westward, as it most generally will do, ves sels will be able to use their sails with advantage in passing through it ; and I see no objection to their be ing permitted to do so under proper regulations. Sloops and fore and aft rigged vessels will mostly be able to sail through ; at times recourse must be had to track. ing, either by the crews or with horses, or occasionally by both, or it may very possibly hereafter be found es.s pedient to establish some kind of steam boats on the Canal, for the purpose of towing vessels through it. There are, however, other circumstances connected with the passage of vessels round the Land's End from the Purts on the south coast of Wales, which must, as fat as the Welsh traders are concerned, greatly increase the above estimated saving of time. These circum stances I will here state. The regular traders between Cardiff and London generally make six complete voyages in the year. The passage from one place to the other sometimes occu pies thirty days; it has been done in six ; but these are alike unusual occurrences. From Swansea and Milford the length of passage is somewhat less—from Newport and Bristol it is rather more. Perhaps '2 days may bt taken as about the average length of passage each way between these places and London; but then the voyage must only be considered as commenced when the vessel has actually sailed from and cleared the last port in the Bristol Channel, for excepting in the sum ' mer months, and in very moderate weather, vessels can not depart from the ports in South Wales to go round the Land's End, unless the wind be in such direction as will enable them to sail out clear of the coast in one tide; if they cannot accomplish this, the returning tide, which is here exceedingly rapid, would drift them back again, probably to leeward of the port whence they started. In summer, vessels do occasionally venture to sail with a westerly wind, and take the chance of an choring to save a tide, but in winter never. The most usual place of rendezvous f.-r vessels wait ing for a wind to sail from the Bristol Channel is Pen narth Roads, near to the entrance of Cardiff river, where they may be sheltered under the high land of Pennarth, and whence they can readily proceed on their voyage in case the wind should become favourable for their doing so. The detention here is often for a considerable length of time; and it was only last year, that a great number of vessels were actually kept here and at Swansea, and at Milford, for thirteen weeks by the continued prevalence of westerly winds. The delay occasioned to the Welsh trade, by this last mentioned cause alone, cannot, I think, on an average of seasons, be reckoned at so little i a week for each voyage—or six weeks iu the year; and if the Ship Canal was cut from Stolford, or some concur rent point of the Bristol Channel, across to the proposed termination at Beer Harbour in the English Channel, no such delays would take place, for vessels from all parts of Wales might then cross over to its entrance from whatever point the wind blew, and, in 21 hours, be transported to an open part of the English Channel either in winter or summer. On the whole then ; and taking into account this cause of detention, which, although it is not continei to, yet applies more especially to vessels frequenting the Bris tol Channel, as well as the other sources of delay before noticed, and regarding, moreover the facilities which the proposed Canal will yield generally to the commu nications between Ireland and the weAern parts of England, att.l all . the ports on the English Channel and German Ozean, I think that I do not overrate its ad vantages when I reckon that on an avera t r.e of cr, cairn stances and seasons a fortnight will be saved by Ai the vessels which shal regularly use it in their outward and hum:mind passage, instead of going round the Land's End, or in other words, that where six entire voyages are now performed in the year, vessels from the Welsh Ports will then always, and other vessels will generally, bE enabled to make twelve. fine saving in expense will, of course, bear a certain proportion to the saying of tune, and sse may at rive at some kind of an approximation to its amount, by at tending to the fallowing statements.
