R.C. Surgeons, London, published by Sherwood and Co. Paternoster-row, Price Ss. 6d. THE Royal Family, Nobility, Ladies, and Gentlemen, are respectfully hiformed, that PRINCE's celebrated RUSSIA OIL is proved the only article that wiU prevent the HAIR falling of or turning grey, and if begun to change, by using it often, will, in a short time, restore it to its natural colour, and is the best article for dressing, preserving, promoting, curling, and making the Hair look beautiful, at Ss. per Bottle, or a Bottle containing five unaU, 20s. Censow—There are several Hair-deems who sell counterfeit Russia Oil, which is trash, and to deceive have the villany to put the Proprietor's name, Prince, on the cover and bottle ; therefore the Proprietor begs Ladies and Gentlemen to be particular, when pur chasing the Russia Oil themselves, or sending their servant for it, to have it of the Proprietor, Mr. Prince, 9, Poland -street, Oxford-street,' or of the principal Perfumers and Medicine Venders. Merchants and Captains, who have orders for Russia Oil, will be particular and guard against impostors who go about with base coun terfeits and say it is the Genuine. Several Merchants and Captains, who have been deceived, and have sent it to the East and %Vest In dies, have been blamed for sending Counterfeit, and have bad it re turned, as abroad they are very particular to have a Genuine article. The Public in general ought to be acquainted that there is a man of the name of Asher, who was a servant some time ago to Mr. Prince, who employed him to do the labouring part (as the principal ingredi ent is kept a secret by the Proprietor, who always mixed it himself.) This same man has the audacity to make a trash which he calls Russia Oil, and the insolence to copy the bill and wrapper, and to put his former master's name on the cover and seal. The Proprietor is sorry to say, there are several Hair-dressers and others, although knowing it is not the genuine, have the meanness to buy this trash, as they get it for a mere trifle, and impose on the Public by telling them it is the Genuine. This same fellow, some time ago, travelled, and tried to impose his Counterfeits ,on Coentry Hair-dressers and Shopkeepers ; but in Brighton, if they had caught him, he would have bad a good ducking, as he took in several who thought it was the Genuine, as the wrapper was made exactly like Mr. Prince's. He had even the vii lany to call on Mr. John Good, Hair-dresser, Brighten, and said he was a traveller from Mr. Prince, and was now returning to London, with some Russia Oil on hand ; instead of which, if Mr. Good pur chased it. he would allow him 10s. per cent. extra discount, on which Mr Good bought it. Some of his cutomers having bought some of him brought it back, and said they did not think it Ge nuine, on which Mr. Goad, suspecting something wrong, wrote to Mr. Prince. the proprietor, London ; on the receipt of which, Mr. Prince went immediately to Brighton ; and Mr. Good and others, who had, been deceived in asimilar manner, went to John Bates, Esq. the magistrate of Brighton, and asked his advice. When the magistrate heard the case, he said he could have three months in the tread-mill, —as it was a fraud—for taking money under fale pretences, and granted a warrant for his apprehension ; but the rogue getting scent of it, ran away trom Brighton to London ; and the magistrnte signing the war rant recomtunded it to J. E. Conant, Esq. the magistrate of Marlbo rough-street, London, who sent officers to apprehend him, yet the rogue managed to keep himself from being taken ; but as the warrant is still open against him, if be does not leave off his roguery he can still be punished. To convince Hair-dressers and others it is a fact, the warrant may be seen at Mr. Prince's. Also Hair-dressers, or any one else selling counterfeit Russia oil, under any pretence whatever, with the name Prince on the seal and wrapper, are liable to be punished, with a dance on the treadmill for the fraud. The proprietor also ac quaints gentlemen who are in the habit of going to the hotels in Covent Garden. and its vicinity, that there is a hair-dresser under the piazza who sells counterfeit, and has taken in several purchasers, by telling them it is Genuine. Several gentlemen who have bought this trashihave come to the proprietor to know if it was the Genuine, as they found it did not answer the purpose, and learning it was counterfeit they said they would never again employ him, and would acquaint the proprietor of the hotel of his roguery. No doubt there are some Hair-dressers who think Mr. Prince, the Proprietor, is too severe with them ; but if they conscientiously con sider the thousands Mr. Prince has spent in advertising it, they must actually consider it next to robbery to endeavour to deprive Mr. Prince of the sale of it by selling Counterfeit; and besides, Mr. P. al lows a very liberal discount for selling again. To satisfy the Public In general that Mr. Prince's Russia Oil is the original and only Genuine, the blowing Gentlemen, who are the first Perfumers and Medicine Venders in the Kingdom, have sold it above twenty years:—Smyth and Nephew, 117, New Bond street ; Hendrie and Son, Tltchborne street; Bayley and Blew, Cock spur-street ; Sanger, 150, Oxford.street; Newbury and Son, St Paul's; Dicey and Sutton, Bow Church-yard; Barclay and Son, Farringdon street ; Butler and Son, Cheapside ; Shaw and Edwards, St. Paul's ; Prout, 226, Strand ; Rigge and Son, 65, Cbrapside; Johnston, 61, Cornhill ; Bolton and Lutt, Royal Exchange ; and of all other prin. cipal Perfumers and Medicine Venders in the Kingdom.

As Dr. Lardner's Cyel4ordia advance., we see no diminution either in the sound judgment by which Its general arrangements are governed, or in the ability which is brought to contribute to the formation of its component parts. The present Volume, forming the 16th of the Cy eloptedia, is a continuation, and we believe completion, of a most instruc tive and ably-abridged view of the principal Important Voyages and Travels over the diferent divisions of the globe. This condensation of curious facts, in the history of man and the world he inhabits, form. we think, u interesting Volumes u can well be produced. In the first chapter, we have a sketch of the Progress of Geographical Science ; and in the succeeding chapters, we have almost all that is curious in the Voyages of Byron, Wallis, Carteret, and Cook—the Voyages to New Holland—Vaaeouver's Voyage—the important Voyage of La Pe. rouse;—the recent Voyages of Rose, Parry, and Franklin—and the equally recent Travels of Humboldt, Park, Bruce, Denham, and Clap pato°. It is unnecessary to recommend a Volume as both amusing and instructive formed from such materials. Dr. Lindner's Cabinet Retrorpeei of Public Affairs fir 11131 l.—Lonexas. We have perused this retrospect of the past year with unusual plea sure. The author needed not to have hesitated to put his name to such a work ; as every intelligent reader who penises it will appreciate highly the correctness of his judgment, on recent political events ; and the partiality with which he has sketched the character of some of the grist actors on the drama of public life, who have made their exit during the period of this history, or yet strut theit day on the stage. The author is liberal in his political views; and we recollect very few instances in which we do not cordially coincide in his sentiments. He has shown considerable tact in the first volume, to introduce sketches of the previous period. Thus In the sketch of the late King, we have an able analysis of the principal acts in his reign: We hope this " New Annual Register" will proceed, for it is a work much wanted. The Characters of Theopkrastas, illustrated by Physiognomies: Re marks ; belay the SisiseatkVoluaw Vide Panel!, Classical Library. VAL PT. The characters of Theophrastus are known to the English reader princi. pally through the translation of the celebrated Eustace ludgell. To adopt the dying expression of the unfortunate tranalator—' what Addison approved could not be wrong"--and the translator left little to accomplish as to giving the sense of the author; but this translation is, perhaps, more faithful, and possesses many valuable adjuacts. There are, in the first place, fifty graphic illustrations of the different characters, the majority of which are very felicitous sketches. Some of the incidents display peculiar ability in giving feature to the author's ideal personation. They are wood engravings, in outline, and both ably designed and well executed. We think the Head of the " Loquacious muld hardly be excelled, and several others deserve equal praise. At the told of the original author, there are added by the translator, " Hints on the Individual Varieties of Human Nature," which we have read with much attention, and can recommend to our Readers as replete with ingenious, profo und, and accurate remarks on the human character. In Pathognomy we think there is evident truth ; but we do not place much dependence on what is generally called Phy siognomy. In these hints, however, there are some physiogoomical remarks worthy of attention.

Macleod, Colonel Gorda', Mrs. Colonel Boyd, Miss Richardson, Mr. and Mrs. Henderson, and a number of others--in all from forty to fifty souls, who bare met with a watery grave. The cause which led to thb melancholy catastrophe is not known ; but it is conjectured that something must have happened to the machinery, sod the vessel in copsequence drifted en the sands, which are quite dry at low sate?, and on which the boiler has since been distinctly seen by several vessels.

Bow.srairt —Yesterday, a respectablyedressed young man, named Thomas WOW, was charged before Mr. blissnuzz with having feloniously intermarried with Miss Elizabeth Campbell. under the as sumed name of Henry Augustus Turnaud, he having been married at the time to another female. It appeared from the statement of Miss Campbell, a fashionably line young woman, that she me: the defendant about seven months ago in one of the Pad. dington stages, when he introduced himself to her as an Of ficer in the Navy, and represented himself as the brother-in-law of the Countess of Shrewsbury. He subsequently spoke of his having been engaged in several actions, and said that he had lately been promoted to the rank of Post Captain. He followed her home and having introduced himself to her brother, his visits w e re permitted, and in a month or two after they were married by license at St. Leonard's church, Shoreditch. The prisoner lived with her for a fortnight, sad them withdrew himself Ames the holier of his mother-In law, and It was subsequently discovered that he was a married man at the time of his marrying with Miss Campbell, and that his wife and children resided at .o. 10, Dorset place, Kennington-road. Mr. Altarsmuzi. asked the complainant what proof she had of the former marrise? Miss Camp bell replied that she had herself seen the prisoner's wife and children; and, moreover, his father had told her that his sou was a married man before he became acquainted with her. Mr. 31INSHULL asked in what name the prisoner had married her. Miss Campbell replied that be married her in the name of Henry Augustus Tutnaud, and she saw him sign that name in the church book as soon as the ceremony had taken place. Mr. Al usnum. remarked that this cue afforded a melancholy proof of the impropriety of parents suffering their daughters to enter common stage-coaches, where it was ten to one that they would meet with fellows like the prisoner, who knew bow to avail themselves of the opportunity which was thus afforded. The prisoner's father said that he himself had caused his tion,to be ap prehended on this charge, and all he prayed of the magistrate was that his son might be brought to trial with as little delay as possible. He then added that his son's defence would give a very different appear ance to the case. The fact was, that Miss Campbell bad given him more encouragement than any young lady ought to have given to a strange young man, of whom she knew nothing. Miss Campbell had actually accompanied his son to the theatre on the very first night of their acquaintance. Miss Campbell Indignantly denied this, and declared, upon her ho. Dour, that it was untrue. The prisoner, who appeared to treat the matter with the greatest in difference, and frequently laughed when the young lady was giving her evidence, was then remanded to give time for the production , of evidet.ce necessary to estabiish the fact of the first marriage. Maavhissoux.--Vesterday Captain Angetstein, of the Guards, cep. CalObefore Mr. HOSKINS and M r . RIFTITH, to show cause why broke a walking.stick across the shoulders of Henry Minshul, his gmom, and then shook him by th e co ll ar i nto fear and bodily terror. Minshul stated that about the middle of January last he came with Captain Angerstein from Windsor, in charge of a colt. They stopped at a gentleman's house near Uxbridge, and while he was in the stable the Captain entered ; when, finding fault with a few wet hairs beit.,,:r upon the back of the colt's legs, he seized • stick and, while Mit shut was kneeling down, struck him violently semi.. the t.ht•uldtrs, by chid% the stick broke in two. After this be reined Lim by the collar, sheet!' him violently, paid him his wages, and turned him elf at six o'clt.ch at night. The Captain admitted the assault, but pleaded a ju.tification. Whin he arrived it was raining, and, after sumelimr, he went into the yatei, where he found his great coat still in the gig, t spotted to the dwell. coining torrent. He entered the stable, whin he &At d Minshul it he had put up his great coat, to which Minshull rei.tietl iti the affirmance. This was • positive falsehood, as was proved by the testimony e f the Captain's own eyes. He next asked him If the mit', legs were dry ? This Minsbul asserted was the case. Hut the colt's legs were still wet, and the same pointed out to Minshul, who, despite of proot to the con. triu7 being before his eyes, re.assested they were dry ; whereupon Cap. tale Angerstein seised a piece of dry stick which lay in the stable, and broke It acmes his head; and so would he serve any man under the same circumstances. Mr. HosKiws expressed himself very sorry to hear Captain Anger. stein say that he would strike any man under such circumstances. It was dearly a violation of the law. The Captain apologised ; he aeksowlvdged he should not use such language_ before the magistrate. Mr. HOSKINS considered the nw in the "tent a Datil I' has a right to discharge a servan a ff eaas he did not obey hislawful cow. minds, but is not at liberty to strike him. The Captain put it to the magistrate if getting the lie direct from a servant were not in itself a sufficient provocation. In addition tq this, the stick was not an ordinary walking stick, but a dry rotten thing, which could not possibly do the man an injury. dlinshul replied that, instead of being a dry rotten one, it was &stick the Captain pulled out of a hedge on their route that mottling; arid so violent was Captain Angerstein, that when the stick broke he said he ought to have used his fists with the scoundrel—as the stick nrglit break, but the fists would not. Mr. Hositssrecommended the Captain to make dfinshul some nos. ienable compensation for the injury he had done him. The Captain positively refused r he considered in doing an he un ii be doing an injustice to every gentleman in England, by holding out a bonus to other servants to be insolent to their masters. The Captain would listen to no compromise, and was ordered to ti bail; but, at length, was suffered to depart upon his tan recogn , zauc, Uxiox Hats..—Yesterday, John Shirley, one of those fellows emu hawk lemons and oranges about the environs, was brought before the Sitting Magistrate charged with stealing 18 silver forks, several spcons, and also a silver fish slice, the property of H. English Esq. of Dui wichscommon. It appeared that a dinner party was given on the preceding day by Mr. English, and the table having been laid in the path ur which opeued into a lawn in front of the house, the prisoner in sneaking aboqt the neighbourhood observed from the road side the preparations for the Lan quet within. Seeing the coast clear, be left the net of oranges and lemons without the palings, and having got over he was soon in the parlour. where he gathered the whole of the plate, consisting of the articles above mentioned together, and while in the act of concealing them in a pair of huge pockets which he wore, one of the large spoons happened to drop on the floor. The noise it made excited the surprise of the but ler, who was busy in the pantry, and on entering the loom lb ascertain the cause, he at once discovered the havoc that had been made amongst the plate while he was absent. He went to the window, and saw the prisoner scampering across the fields in the direction of town, followed by a policeman, who stopped him: in the pursuit, the prisoner dropped a doyen of spoons, and when be was taken into custody the remainder of the plate was found in his possession. He was fully committed.
