So e, :lit. OAr .y attempts have been made to mislead the good folks of the J c''d etropolie, by pretending- to cure th e cry i ng ev i l of bad water, 'no e , "without the least pretension, that we were amongst the , tmany who remained sceptical as to the preteneions of the Roye I Filter, until we „wore led to seek ocular demonstrt.. o, Peon by having One fixed up in a large cistern, and we have now no sort of hesitation in pronouncing it QUITE ; CoM -2'.IipLETE, and in givi ng it mitt uliQuatortuti enefst. • !. e e :The names of the highest professional talent in the Metro- AuVI ; voile have given the strongest testimony, that they way he ;'.eivosidererl, in the metropolitan city of London as an ab t, roeolute " God-eend," bnt we will illustrate their opinions "e ;by stubborn facte and proofs as strong as Holy Writ; cad Lot ; -y .strearst /et us examine the state of the water, as now drank an ''by the thousand and ten thoustied persons who have not Gou i yet availed themselves of this Filter, and our leaders will orn near in mind, that this evidence is sopplicd from evidence f , • th MINI last Hee MME rlen in the BR ITISH HOUSE Or PARANT.

IT The Let professional g en tl eman to whose evidence we 'than refer, is Dr. Paris, the author of the popular work '.. on Diet. He pionouueos the water to be impure and effensire, and says that it stinks shortly after it has come .it, LARGE QUANTITIES OF MATTER ARE MECHANICALLY lUSPF.EDI O IN IT. "AS A PHYSICIAN," he eays, "I CAN i Nov FIND TERME SUFFICIENTLY EXPRESSIVE OF THE AW- E TUL EFFECTS IT MAY BE LIKELY TO PRODUCE UPON THE ~ HEALTH, AND EVEN LIVES, OF THE INHABITANTS OF TILE HETROPOLIS." And in the last edition of his work he toes still further, and asserts, that if a remedy he not ap stied to the evil, " THE RAVAGES or some. Erlne:3l4c ''TAY BE, FAIRLY ANTICIPATED." SUCH Lt THE. PICTURE --Tae FAITHFUL AND FRIGHT FUL, PICTURE —OF THE BONDITION OF THE WATER OF THE THAMES, AS SUPPLIED BY THE COMPANIP.S TO THEIR CUSTOMERS. That the inhabitants of the richest, largest, most populous city in the world--the seat of a more ripe ; Lent body of nobility and gentry than is to be found in my other Metropolis—should, for to long a time, have teen contented to have SEEN DAILY RUNNING INTO THEIR tett:moss, AND TO HAVE USED, FOR ALL DOMESTIC AND •'.DLINARY PURPOSES, A NECESSARY OF LICE, SO LOADED WITH ALL SORTS OF IMPURITIES AS TO RE PRONOUNCED, IST PROFESSIONAL MEN OF TUE FIRST EMINENCE, TO RE orraxstvit TO Tux ware, disgusting to the imagination, one! destructive to the health, is a fact that would not "ai r . been credited, and that ought not to have been •Terietli but up on ev id ence unanswerable. rill RESULT OF THEIR LABOURS IS THE RECOMMEN . DATION OF A GENERAL SYSTEM OF FILTRATION—A SYs rEm, NOT LIMITED TO THE PIETY-THREE THOUSAND pAmtur.s DAILY DRINKING Tile FILTHY FLUID OF WHICH k WE HAVy BEEN &PEAKING, BET EXTENDING ITSELF TO I on it HUNDRE D AND SEVENTY-SIX THOUSAND TENANTS OF Hs NEW RIVER AND OTHER COMPANIES, CONSUMING le -HE TWENTY-I+I.NR MILLIONS OF GALLONS DAILY SUP 1Y fronn TO The METROPOLIS. Unfortunately, at the moment when the Commissioners es 'pre drawing up their Report, the patent for " The Royal el liter for Cisterns" had not passed through the tedious or , -sal of office, OR IT WILL NOT BE DOUBTED, AFTER READ i N G THE FOLLOWING TESTIMONIALS, THAT IT 'MUST HAVE CHIMED AN IMPORTANT AND HIGHLY SATISFACTOR Y CON .LESION TO THEIR LABOURS.—The subjoined extract from aProepectue, issued by the Proprietor, WILL BE PERUSED versr THE LIVELIEST INTEREST BY ALL wilco CONSIDER !LEARLINESS TO BE ESSENTIAL TO HEALTH, AND THE :MUTT OF TIM EdLEMENT OF WHICH WE ARE TREATING, 1 r 0 BE NEARLY or EQUAL IMPORTANCE WITH THE A IR .VE BREATHE :-- i " The Royal Filter for Cisterns will be found superior 'o all filters hitherto invented, inasmuch as it not only ~,5E68E6 THE POWER OP CLARIFYIN G THE WATER It, A 'RE-EMINENT DEGREE, BUT ALSO THAT OF COMPLETE ' URIFICATION, RENDERING TSIE rooter TU REID, STAGNAN T ' -ND WETID WATER., OF A CRYSTALLINE BRILLIANCY,' , 'DERIVING li' OY avarry NOXIOUS INGREDIENT, AND, IN ACT, PRODUCING 4 NATURE'S NECTAR' IN THE IliollEsT , GSSIELE PERFECTION ; THAT IS TO SAT, GLEAR ANN ,E.SITTUTZ OR TASTE AND SMELL." The rapidity of the process may be understood by a 'ngle obeervation, " THAT 90 FAST AS THE WATER IS 'PPLIED AT THE TOP OF THE KisI.IIIIN, SO VAST i' Wild. 'EHAROE ITSELF' PROM Tllli BOTTOM." i But where," the reader will naturally exclaim, " is proof of all this to be found ? We. must have eome i 4 more solid and satisfactory than bare aseertione."-- i, .1 following -statement most, we think, set the doubts of t -re most sceptical at rest for ever. tr Mr. Hume, the respectable and talented chemist of Long to who has l ong b een employed by Government in ra/yeing waters, had two bottles sent to him for ialyeation; THE ONE FULL OF ALL SORTS OF ANIMAL ID VEGETABLE. MATTERS IN A STATE OF DECOMPOSITION, ,'D STRONGLY IMPREGNATED WITH GAS; the other, a *Ale which had contained the sane foul ingredients, but 'ail been purified by the Royal Filter. In the unfiltered bottle he found, he says, forty-six sins and . a half of solid matter, of which thirty grains waisted of impnritties, and the remaining sixteen grains 1 the original ingredients peculiar to the water, eed solved in it i " for," he observee, " there is no Water, Fever pare nod wholveeme, whether from deep wells, No. 11,329. superficial springs, or any- otbet source, that it frae from saline and other soluble salts, net nt all injurious to health," In the filtered IN - Atio he found only sixteen grains of substances; Which, on examination, proved to be the same materials peculiar to, and soluble in, the water in its pri mitive state, and perfectly free from the inipnrit.ies and contingent foulness of the water, netasioned principally by decayed vegetali7e te.att , : , .r. ) a slight impregnation by animal substances, sem: , tathureted hydrogen or coal gas, end ear bouiit e:itt gas. Mr. Hume concludes with hearing the following high testimony to the merits of this discovery: " After a very careful analysis, I cannot hesitate to pro nounce the method which has been adopted to filter this specimen of water to be most efii:etual, and highly descry- 1 ing of public encouragement." The same gentleman, at a subsequent period, analysed two other bottles, and says, " the opinion I had formei of this new process for fiitering is fully confirmed." We should add, that the water thus analysed, A I.THOUGH ror.rosaLv STRONGLY IMPREG NATED WITH GAS ANA OTHER 1311YERIT1ES, BECAME CRYSTALLISED, AND DESTITUTE OF TASTE AND SMELL. TIM'S It is clearly proved, THAT OF THE FORTY-SIX GRAINS AND A HALF OF SOLID MATTER ORIGINALLY PLACED IN TIEE ROYAL FILTER, ONLY SIXTEEN GRAIN./ OF SUB.TANCRIE FAStiED THROUGH IT ; AND NV/110E( SIX TEEN GRAINS ARE PROVED TO BE PECULIAR. TO WATER IN ITS FRIMITIVE STATE, AND NOT AT ALE DELETERIOUS To HEALTH. However much, therefore, the observation of the Commissioners may apply to all former systems of filtration, it is greatly to he regretted that, before the close of their labours, they had not the benefit of the preceding experiments, and of the following striking testimonials to the excellence of " The Royal Filter." Professor Brande, Dr, Clarke, Mr. Brodie, Mr. Keute, Dr. Seudainore, and 30 other highly eminent and unpre judiced medical men, have each had the Royal Filter placed in their cisterns, and they all concur in stating that it renders the most turbid, fietid water of ehrystaline brilliancy, and free from taste and smell. . - It should be observed that the difficulty of getting pure wt.ter is very coalition in most of the large towns, and indeed throughout the ptavinees. The difficulty or necessity of placing a Filter at this distance is nowremoved. Portable ones of all dimensions, capable of filtering- from 50 to 500 gallons every 24 hours, have been adapted to prevent the inconvenieuce alluded to. The expence is from .Nos. to 41. or 3/. We trust we have eaid enough to draw general attention to the merits of a discovery o highly conducive to the cleanliness, comfort, and health of the inhabitants of this thickly peopled Metropolis. We shall only add that the apparatus osay be inapected at the Office of the Patontee, Mr. George Robins, 69, Strand, opposite the Adelphi Theatre ; where the public ore invited to have ocular de. tnonstration of the efficacy of this remedy. -FORD BYRON'S WORKS : A N ew and Beautiful Edition, with Portrait arid Plates Four Pocket vols. lSnio.

(From a Correspondent of the lifornivg t Herald.) It is to be feared that the genius of ill taste i. very unwilling to relinquish its hold upon Eng land. Patrons without judgment, and artists without skill, threaten to give permanence to it,; reign. The tests of incapacity in both are truly deplorable. No foreigner would credit the amount of sums lavished annually on structures which disgrace the metropolis. Posterity will never believe that, a Vestry placed in their pariah church, at an expellee of 800/., a transparency of less merit than a paper specimen worth Is. 6d. What a melancholy catalogue may be made of mismanagement, incompetence, and error ! Buckingham Palace, with all its disreputable de tails—the misplaced, unmeaning arch at the new entrance to the Green Park—the barrier wall of separation, closing the month of Waterloo-place, and erected in contemptuous disregard of a re- • commendation of the House of Commons—the mistakes and blunders in the approach to St. Martin's Church (a noble building that should have been the leading feature, and the pivot round which the alterations near it ought to have been made to bend)—the Courts at West minster, the Board of Trade, the Bank, and the Custom-house—all these, and many more, have on them the mark of the beast. Verily, the pen weeps in recording instances of such palpable want of talent, discretion and controul. Another chapter is on the eve of being added to this book of lamentations. The same evil spirit has made a new deseinft. In the centre of the Regent's Park is a circular space, at pre sent a nursery plantation, on which it was pro mised that if any houses were erected, they should be private dwellings and innocuous. It is the • pleasant and quiet resort of the best families in the neighbourhood, where they walk without ap prehensions of rudeness, and is more within the reach of those without carriages than Kensing ton Gardens. This desirable ground, open to and by all enjoyed, is the one selected for the site of the " King's College," which, in effect, is the introduction of a plague that will ulti mately drive away all its opulent inhabitants, and prevent others from a settlement in it. TI e Park, with all its faults, is really too pretty to be thus spoiled. In private life, a person who de stroys, or deteriorates wantonly, his property is deemed a simpleton. The Commissioners for Woods and Forests stand in this relation with their trust. It is an estate of the Crown, and injury inflicted on it would be a dereliction of duty publicly, while individually, what will be thought of their taste ? Houses were purehased under engagements which .would be violated by the gratuitous establishment of a nuisance. And for what, after all, it may be asked, is this sacri fice to be made of open or implied obligations and the faith of Government ? For a school which may never answer the proposed ends, which is regarded by many as an affair of party, and which will, with difficulty, if ever, overtake the march of the London University, already started into life, vigour, and activity. • It is with out endowment : the subscriptions do not yet amount to a third of its estimated cost, and the choice of site will not only check additional ones, but create enmity. At this moment, perhaps, it has fewer friends than enemies, and certainly it is not the part of wisdom to increase the latter. If the Treasury sanction the consent given to the Committee for the College by the Commissioners, in opposition to the wishes, the remonstrances, and memorials, of the inhabitants of the Park, the advantages of its situation will be lost to them. But it is not yet granted ; and the Duke of Wellington, who transacts with so much ability his own business, is not a weak Nobleman to be imposed on. His Grace's refusal will save the depreciation of much valuable property, paying high ground rents, and save the possessors from annoyances, which they will doubtless remember with gratitude, though their claim is on his justice. Their prayer is to be protected from injury, which, falling first on themselves, will recoil ultimately on the State, who will eventually be the cause of it. The community, who frequent in crowds •the Park for recreation and exercise, have a strong interest in the question. It includes many members of the Royal Family, with persons of the first dis tinction, and a measure which would gratify an interested few at the expence of good faith, and give displeasure to a very great majority of the public of every rank, can never be the 'decision of a Statesman. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.—Mr.PaIIi James Redford, of Cliffe Cottage, Holloway Hill, Derbyshire, left home on Friday morning last, intending to visit Mr. Hor ton, a friend who resided about three miles from his house, and be took with bins his double-barrelled gun, to have some sport on the road. On passing through Archer's Wood, it is supposed be put the butt-end of the gun into a hedge, to procure a bird or a rabbit he had killed, when a brier caught the trigger, and the charge entered his body, and caused instant death. The situation in which the body was found confirmed that opinion, and the Jury re turned a verdict of " Accidental Death." A Third Edition, 3 vols. Svc). N. 16s.
