SS several Druggists and Medicine Venders, in London, Ikth, Cheltenham, &c. are imposing on the Public by selling spurious and inefficacious preparations under the name of SEID LITZ POWDERS, with pirated labels and directions, the Inventors and Patentees think it necessary to Worm the Public, that the Medicine cannot be genuine unless the names of " Savcry, Moore, and Davidson, Chemists to the Royal Family, 15 ti, New Bond-street," are printed on the wrap per, and each Raz and Bottle is surrounded with a stamp, on which " T. Paytherus and Co." is engraved. riIHERE is nothing more remarkable in the social JL habits of the present day than a general disregard to the maxims of prudence in regard to health and enjoyment. Hence the vast multitudes who, having acquired the portion of an enfeebled constitution, are doomed to the class of habitual inva. lids. Their minds anxious, unsteady, or sluggish, and their bodies weak, the natural functions of life are discharged laboriously with pain and difficulty. For this state of nervous derangement the CORDIAL BALM OF G MEAD will be found to have peculiar efficacy, strengthening the languid system, and shedding new hope on the mind.

Cape diem — Be proniptlb wise. WHEN Science began to explore the complicated machinery of Man, she was speedily entangled in a la byrinth of mysterious confusion, from which intellectual perse verance alone emancipated her. Ignorance and empiricism, however, still oppose their venomous hostility, and the prejudice of weak minds, in some measure, encourages their audacity. As Truth is to Falsehood—so may our public statements be com pared with their unqualified pretensions, and to expose their fal lacies, we have not hesitated to avow ourselves as practitioners in a class of Diseases which endanger the mystic evolutions of Nature. To be brief: we are Members of the London Col lege of Surgeons, can establish the integrity of our Character upon the success of Twenty Years' practical experience, and an. nounce the grateful testimony of those in whom long suffering had nearly extinguished every hope of relief. We pledge ourselves to the removal of Syphilis, from it incipient symptoms to the remotest stages, characterized by every doubt and whatever malignancy. The intricate and much neglected diseases of the Urethra have been carefully and studiously considered, as have also those delicate and important sympathies which refer to the Female Sex. The infirmities of virility have been especially noticed, whether as arising from the debilitating tyranny of a tropical atmosphere—the natural bias of constitution—the imprudence of gaiety—or the more alarming results of a propensity to practices " which shun the light ; ' the progress of which is marked by a gradual dereliction of the ani mal powers. To all who are thus,circumstanced, and more especially to such as are aspirants for connubial pleasures, we earnestly recommend our Commentary ( The iEgis If Life), the perusal of which must prove beneficial to their moral happiness Ike Book may be had at 20, Paternoster-row ; 59, Pall-Mall; 41, Piccadilly ; 16, Prince's-street, Soho; 174, and 32, Fleet street; 40, West Smithfield ; 98, Chrapside; Burks and Ste venson, Norwich; Deck, Ipswich; Sheppard, Bristol; Barratt and Duffield, Bath; Hatt, Cambridge; Headley, Leeds; and by all Booksellers.

The following letter from :t❑ Englishman at Lis bon, describes the throwing open of the dungeons of the Inquisition. The fact (.f thi, exhibition we had already learned from the Portuguese Papers. and had communicated to our Iteade:s ; hut there are many particulars in the private letter s hich make it worthy of attention. It seems clear, from the letter in ques tion, that even in very recent times the E.tablish ment has been in horrid efficiency, and that one Eng lishman at least has been among the sufferers : LUZON, OCTOssa 20. " I send you a description of the Inquisition at this place, which I have been to visit. The Cortes are proceeding steadily with the great work they have undertaken; and I have no doubt that they will form a constitutional system of Government equal to any in the world. They appear to have the Spanish Con stitution and that of the United States of America chiefly in their view. At the sitting of the Cortes on the 10th inst. Senor Figueras presented a letter from the Keeper of the Inquisition, stating, that on the bUilding being opened for public inspection, the people had, behaved in a very disorderly manner, break ing open doors and carrying away papers, &c. and that several persons had actually cried out that the building should be burned, whilst they held lighted candles in their hands; as if about to put their threats into execution ; which he stated they would have done but for the interposition of the guards. The Keeper therefore prayed that measures should be taken to prevent the recurrence of such scenes. Senor Bastos said, that if any such disorders as had been described had occurred, it was owing to the refusal of the keepers to chew the instruments of torture and the lower cells of the pi ison to the vi itants. In his opinion, these Gentlemen (the Keepers), cherished a religious respect for the tribunal, of which they spoke with ap parent veneration. As it was apprehended the people might set fire to the place, it would be better to susp e nd l um p s i n var i ous parts, and not allow the visitants to carry lights.—Senor Fer nando Thomas proposed that an inscription, ut which the fol lowing is a translation, should be fixed on every place occupied by the Inquisition in Portugal: May eternal malediction follow every Portuguese, who does nut hold for ever in abhorrence an invention so infernal.' " On the Bth of October, the Inquisition at Lisbon was thrown open for public inspection, and C.:r the fist four days the con course of people of all descriptioiss that crowded to view it was so great that the pressure at . the entrance made it an enterprise of some risk. The building is a large oblong, with a g-nten in the centre; there are three floors, with a number of vaulted passages, along the sides of which are cells of diffennt sizes, from six by seven feet to eight by nine feet. Each cell has two doors; the inner one of iron, the miter of oak, very strong. As there arc no windows in the cells on the ground and middle flirt rs, no light is admitted when the doors are shut. The cells on the upper flour ate larger than the others, and each has an aperture like a chimney through which the sky is visible. These were appropriated to the use of those who it was supposed might be liberated. In the roof of each cell (fur they are all vaulted) is a small aperture of about an Inch in diameter, and a private pas. sage runs over each range ; so that the persons employed Ly the Holy Office could at any time observe the conduct of the pri soners unseen ; and if two persons were confined in one cell, hear their conversation.• Frequently a familiar of the Holy Office was put into the cell of a prisoner, as a person arrested, in order to entrap the unfortunate inmate of this horrible place into admissions that might afterwards be used against him. I saw in several of the cells human ' skulls and bones; most of them'appeared to have lain there for many years, as I broke some of them easily with my fingers; others were hard and fresh. In a number of the cells the names of the unhappy in mates were written oty the walls: some had strokes, apparently marking the 'lumber of day► or weeks the victims of this horrid tyranny had been confined. On the wall of one cell I counted upwards of 500 of these marks. On the wall of another of the cells was written, ' Francisco Joze Carvalho, entered here the last day of 31arch, 1809, and remained as many days as there are strokes in the wall.' On the wall of another cell there was written, John Laycock e the name had been covered with whitewash, which had scaled off. here were a number of strokes under the name, and the figures 18 Were easily made out, the others were obliterated. Some of the cells which had not been used for several years were lucked up, but the visitants goon broke them open. Human bones were found in many of these. In one was found part of a friar's habit, with a waist girdle of rope and some bones. The apertures like chimneys in some of the cells were closed ; anti I have been informed that it was a common mode of putting prisoners to death, to place them in these apertures, which were then walled up, and quick lime being poured in from the top, a speedy end was put to their suf ferings. The furniture is very old ; the chairs in the halls are covered with leather studded all round with very large brass nails send you a piece of leather with one of these nails, taken from one of the best chairs. The large tables in the halls had drawers for papers ; these the visitants broke open, every one being desirous of obtaining some relic of the once terrible Inquisition. In several of the cells there were mattresses, some of them old, others nearly new; which proves that the Inquisi tion was no bugbear up to a very recent date. Besides the three floors which I have described, there are a number of cells un derground, which have not yet been opened. " These, it is supposed, contain the apparatus for inflicting the torture, &c.—lt is understood that these will shortly be thrown open to the Public; when they are I shall not fail to visit them, and shall send you a description. The spot on which the Inqui sition stands was covered with houses in 175.5, when the great earthquake happened, by which they were laid in ruins ; so that the present building has not been erected more than sixty years; and all the victims that were immolated in it must have been sacrificed within that period. • " There are sea:s in these private passages so contrived, that a person sitting might inspect two of the cells at the same time, as by a turn of the head he could fix his eye upon the hole over either cell at pleasure; or Ile could hear what was said in either. The persons appointed to listen to the discourse of the prisoners wore cloth shoes ;* so that their footsteps could not be heard." No discovery of the kind has been so generally adopted in the fashionable world as ATKINSON'S VEGITATITIC Ham On., or CULLING FLUID. It is now considered am indis pensable appendage to the toilet; for regenerating the Hair it is so pre-eminent that medical melt of the first eminence preset ibe it, and in all cases where the hair has fallen off front premature decay; such as fevers, acrouchement, or other illness, change of climate, perspiration, interne study, Scc. it is warranted to rt. store it to its original thickness and beauty ; fur dressing the hair it is far preferable to Oils, Extracts, or Pomatunts, making the hair softer and more glossy, and giving it such strength and elasticity that it retains its curl during exercise or in damp wea ther.
