Of Medicines in general use, there are none perhaps more valuable than safe and effective tonics; they improve and invigorate the constitution when impaired by the effects of climate, long use of medicine, protracted disease, or the ordinary decay of nature. The Indian Tonic is a prepara tion of aromatics indigenous to the East Indies, where their combined effects have been witnessed for many years by a Physician of extensive practice in all complaints arising from weak stomachs, flatulency, loss of appetite, indigestion, nervous affections, and general debility. To elderly persons it imparts a genial warmth, anti gives a tone and vigour to the constitution. In alleviating sea-sickness it has been found most successful. Prepared only by Dinneford, Chemist, No. 172, New Bond-street.

HOUSE'S BALSAM of SPERMACETI or PECTORAL COUGH DROPS. Persons doubting the efficacy of this Medicine, may take a dose in the Proprietor's shop before they purchase. The Proprietor earnestly recommends a trial of these Drops to persons afflicted with the above complaints; but he does not introduce them as being an infallible cure (as many do), but is warranted in asserting their efficacy from the extensive relief afforded in numerous cases of the above descrip• ion. Constitutional Coughs of three, four, and more years standing, have been cured in the eourse of a week by the use of these Drops. In the Hooping and Chin Cough it will be found equally valuable; it will at all times relieve the most violent Consumptive Cough. In Bottles Is. Iyl d. , 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., and 10s. 6d. each.

When in death I shall calm recline," &c. When to bed I shall go at nine, Take my boots to my footman here; Tell him to make them superbly shine, And bring them again when the morn is near. „Bid him get no vile trash for scrubbing, To sully the boots so stylish and light; But go to the Strand, and buy there for rubbing, Some of Warren's Jet Blacking, to polish them bright. When the task of his brush is o'er, Take the boots from the servants hall ; Hang them up at my chamber door, When the hair-dresser comes to give me a call. Then, as old Frizzle arrives to dress me, And sees his fat face, as forward he walks, He'll start with surprise, and cry God bless me! This beats all the mirrors in England by chalks." Take this Blacking pot, now o'erflowing, To grace your shoe.hole whilst I'm away; Never, oh ! never, its jet bestowing, Unless it gives polish as bright as day : And when, in his boots, some astonish'd old fellow, So brightly reflected, his face shall espy, With gratitude then he the secret shall tell, oh ! At Warren's, the Strand, is the pLice to buy. This Easy-shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by ROBERT WARREN, 20, Strand, London ; and sold in every Town in the United Kingdom.

THE GARDENER'S GAZETTE, A WEEKLY JOURNAL OF SCIENCE, LITERA TURE, AND GENERAL INTELLIGENCE. The Proprietors of this Journal, without resorting to the usual plan of boasting as to the number circulated, which is invariably a deception, ars content to solicit Advertisements upon the credit of its name and connections alone. That it is in general circulation among a very large, influential and wealthy class, which at this 'period are actively engaged in promoting Floriculture and Horticulture throughout the United Kingdom, as well as the middle and humbler classes, who are cul tivators, is a fact of which any person can, in an hour's inquiry, satisfy himself ; and if it be an object to advertise among the No bility and Gentry of all parties, as well as the thinking and careful portion of the bumbler classes engaged in horticultural pursuits, " The Gardener's Gazette" is unquestionably the only single Journal which oilers this advantage. Without dictating as to the kind of Advertisement adapted for the Journal, or rather for which the Journal is adapted, the Pro prietors suggest that Booksellers, Auctioneers, Estate Agent?, Manufactifiers of Horticultural, Agricultural, and Gardening Im plements and Apparatus, Nurserymen, Florists, Seedsmen, Land scape and other Gardeners, Servants in waut of places, and Masters in want of Servants, Seedsmen, Fruiterers, Importers of Foreign Produce, &c., will find it a much more eligible and effective me dium than any existing Newspaper. By giving timely notice, any Advertiser of a Catalogue of Books, or Plants, or Flowers, or any Auction Catalogue, may engage a sufficient portion of the Paper, to the exclusion of any other Ad ♦ertisement of the same class or kind, and be accommodated with any number of the papers (at the cost price?, which they may thus send (post free) to all• parts of the United Kingdom, and the British Colonies.

The Derby betting continues languid, and, judging from ap pearances, is not likely to improve on this side of the Craven Meeting. The few engagements entered into yesterday only en abled us to collect that Brother to Bay Middleton was a shade worse than on Monday, that Phantasima was in some demand, and that offers to back Lord Exeter's, either singly or in a lot, were made in three or four quarters.

WORSHIP- STREET. Yesterday the Rev. Dr. Rice, Curate of St. Luke's, Old street, appeared on a summons at this office, charged with twice assaulting a mourner while performing the funeral ser vice. It appeared there were two graves within fifty feet of each other, and as the Rev. Defendant was standing midway between the two, the complainant approached him for the pur pose of requesting that he would approach nearer to th e grave of his friend's wife, when the Rev. Defendant struck him on the head with the hand which held the book. The people in the churchyard commenced crying " Shame." Thu Rev. Defendant alleged—First, the common custom of reading the same service for several burials. provided the graves lay at convenient distances ; secondly, that, seeing the complainant approach him while commencing the words " Forasmuch as it hath pleased," &c., be (the Rev. Defendant) raised his hand containing the book to impose silence, and not for the purpose of striking ; and, thirdly, that from his (the Rev. Defendant's) entering the burial-ground a disposition for levity and amuse ment among the mass of people there congregated seemed to prevail. The Magistrates, however, being of a contrary opi nion, they inflicted a fine of 40s. and costs, accompanied with their expression of regret at finding a Minister of Peace so far forgetting his sacred character. Tr _'he Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry, and their son, Lord Seaham, w h o arr i ve d at W arsaw on the 22d of February, were expected to remain only a few days in that capital, and then set out for England, via Berlin and Paris. The Chancellorship of the Order of the Garter is vacant by the death of the Bishop of Salisbury : as also the Secretaryship of the Order of St. Patrick, which became va cant by the death of Viscount Forbes. Count d'Orsay entertained a distinguished party at dinner on Monday evening, at Kensington-gore; Prince Es terhazy, Earl of Aberdeen, Lord Lyndhurst, Lord Castle reagh, and Sir Robert Gordon, were among the guests. The Earl of Minto gave another grand dinner at the Admiralty, on Monday evening, to Lord and Lady Col chester, Mm. Sir P. Malcolm, Adm. the Hon. Sir R.. and Lady Stopford, Rear-Adm., Sir Wm. Parker, Sir Charles Adam, Sir John Beresford, Lady Scott, Captain and the Hon. Mrs. Bowles. The Countess will give her second soiree dansante this evening. Lord Macdonald and Mr. Massey Stanley left the Clarendon on Monday evening, for Dunchurch, in Warwick shire, where his Lordship, distinguished in the sporting world for his intrepid riding, was to ride a steeple chase on Tuesday. Letters were received on Monday last from the Duke of Cumberland, dated from Berlin, from which it is sup posed that his Royal Highness will be here about the first week in April next. The Duke de Pahnella and the Marquis de Foyer have arrived at Leamington Spa. 1 1 The venerable Count RomanzofF, now with an ex. tensive suite at Mivart's Hotel, from St. Petersburgh, is one of the most ancient families of Russia, and most distinguished as the elite of the Russian Nobles.

Like Mrs. Inchbald, she has the Eirt of exciting strong sympathy by following the course of the natural passions —whilst, from her knowledge of life and manners, she fills her canvass with a greater variety, and more pleasing objects. The present charming work is, perhaps, one of Lady Bury's best productions ; the story is simple and af fecting, and makes its progress through a course of well-con trived incidents, and characters always pleasing, and often striking."—Bell's Messenger. MR. CAMPBELL'S LETTERS FROM THE SOUTH. —There is as much information and novelty in these volumes, as respects that portion of them which opens up a view of the social habits and moral characteristics of the people thus honour ed with an illustrious visitor, as would admit of being spun out into half a dozen ordinary volumes of tours and travels; and there are as many sound reflections and exquisite grates of poetical feeling as would set up twice that number of ordi nary poett:, were they to travel and turn letter-writers.. The style is everywhere graphic, lively, and fanciful—the picture is set before the eye, without the least straining after false effects. There is no waste of words here—no obscurity of meaning ; but the thoughts, sentiments, and images stand out in full re lief, as free from elaborate affectation as from unpolished plainness.—Court Journal. The Harems of the East have been kept to a great extent a veiled mystery to the eyes of unbelievers. Occa sionally, as in the case Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, a slight peep behind the curtain has been obtained; but the seraglios of the African Mussulmant have hitbertq escaped, the inquisitive eyes of unprivileged intruders. To Prir.ce Puckler Muskau, however, who has lately s:pent some tirae in Africa, this unp re c e d e nt e d o pp or t un ity b 5 been offered. In his " Semilasso in Africa," which Mr.. Bentley announces as just ready for publication, the Priner., admits his reader with him to a participation in the sec'et s he has obtained. His sketches of the Moorish ladies are, piquant, novel, and elegantly described. We observe that there is a new edition coming out of " Spain in 1830," at a moment, too, when the subject is upon every body's tongue. The late Mr. Inglis was a traveller of high qualifications. He was a very impartial observer of passing events, an accurate and forcible narrator of what he saw ; and he contrived to give in a simple condensed form a store of valuable information without any pretension to effect. The Earl of Aberdeen said that in. this work he had " obtained more information about Spain thrm from all the official docu ments be had perused." This is; no slight praise on the tart 9f SQ dietingniihed diplcomiA, 1 The Bishops last night fairly threw off the mask,. and set all reg ar d t o d ecency as id e i n theirsfurious oo slaught on the Ministerial plan for the abolition oY Church -rates, before it has. even received the conside• ration of the House of Commons. At first the Lords' were all sympathy with the suffering lessees. But th, Bishops know these people too well to suppose thaw any aid is to be expected from such a quarter. We. were not unprepared for this display of the Prelate t though we could hardly have believed that they would so far lay aside all regard for propriety of behavior's. We can now understand why the late Mr. Cobbett iti as so much excited when he spoke of the vio'snice of t: ie clergy towards himself and Lord Cochrane at a me( L ing in Winchester. They actually, he said, • sills ,k their fists in the faces of himself and that bra ve officer, who declared that hi all the scenes of 1 is life he had never witnessed anything to equal eie shameful bullying of the Hampshire parsons. WI: e ther it be the exemption from the responsibili is to which other gent l emen are subject-that lea is to these unseemly ebullitions we know not ; hat this we know, that for a scolding bout the BiSh up of London and the Bishop of Exeter are without th cur equals in Parliament. The Bishop of Exeter had ti le bad taste to burst into loud and contemptuous laugh, er when Lord Melbourne declared what we are sure w is his firm conviction, that he considered the measure be one of peace and concord ; and the Bishop of Lis; don, at the top of his voice, denounced the plan as a scheme of sacrilege and spoliation. Their Rig! it Reverend Lordships are quite mistaken if they suppo me that their indecent precipitancy will either overawe tl to House of Commons or rouse the country in their bi half. We are quite aware that the parsons, for some time, have neither slumbered nor slept—that they ha 'ass been getting up hole-and-corner petitions all over t he kingdom ; at which they have endeavoured, by infla; r ing the minds of their partisans, to work them to th 3ir purposes. It was in reference to these disingenuo us practices, no doubt, that Lord Melbourne asked t; he Most Rev. Prelate (the Archbishop of Canterbury r) " whether he conscientiously believed that the measu res had been fairly represented to the people—whethc necessarily it bad not been misrepresented, if the feel-. ing it had produced on the minds of the people was*. that its operation was in any way to injure the sacredt edifices of the Church ?" The parsons knew betr than to call public meetings, because if they had d on 0 so, these misrepresentations would have been exp ose s k s The parsons would not have been allowed, vvitho u t contradiction, to get up petitions by holding out tha t it was intended to destroy the sacred edifices, to le t them go to ruin. The Archbishop of Canterbur ) told their Lordships that " a meeting of Bishop: had been held that morning, at which they as. • sembled to the number of fifteen, being nearly al I the Prelates who were in town ; and he hay been authorised by them to express their unani - mous concurrence in the sentiments he had stated ~ and their determination to resist the proposed mea - sure by all proper and just means." Proper„ i n - deed ! They gave an admirable sample of thei sense of justice and propriety by thrusting themselve s forward so unseasonably. Oh, but the Bishop London was inflamed with holy zeal for the souls c the poor people of this country ! " There were tws millions of poor people in England who were withou the means of religious instruction ; and to what other - sources could they look for means if the present plan , was adopted, and these were cut off." Oh, it is all zeal, burning zeal, for the souls of the poor people, nos ! doubt. The zeal remained hidden from mortal eye may , long as Bishops and Deans and Chapters were ; ne . dulged in their freaks of running their lives ar .o s aist; tenants, and jobbi ng i n Ch urc h l an d s . But e ne mo. ment it is proposed to do an act of justice to the pis scoters out bursts the zeal for the souls of the poor. Is • has been smouldering hitherto under a deep crust of se t s fishness ; but the flames can no longer he repressed. Every pulpit of the Establishment will henceforth ring the changes on spoliati on , sacr il ege , an d other flowers of the vocabulary of the Prelate who, in the late case of Gompertz, proved himself so thoroughly irs s . hued with the Christian spirit, so much alive to the sufferings of his poorer brethren of the Establishment, so little influenced by personal or family considerations. It is all zeal for the souls of the people ! The Bish e op of London affe c t e d t o b e qu i te sat i s fi ed that as a finan cial scheme the measure was altogether founded on er roneous data, and that it would fail in that respect. But if the Right Reverend Father in God had not a tolerably good assurance that the measure would not fail financially, we should have been spared, we sus pect, much of the holy zeal for the souls of the two millions of people. If the Parsons could but rely on the lessees, and could have any tolerable assurance that the scheme of Ministers would fail financially, how they would rejoice at the prospect of Ministerial dis appointment ! But they know that it will not fail. They feel assured that Lord Melbourne was justified in stating, " Though I do not at pre sent pretend to be a master of all the calculations on which the measure is founded, or to be able to go through all the details, I can tell the Right Rev. Prelate that if there is any part of the measure on which I feel less doubt than another, it is the financial part of it. lam perfectly convinced that by a proper management of these Church lands, ample funds will be realised for all the purposes stated in the measure." It is knowledge of the truth of Lord Melbourne's statement that has impelled them to thrust themselves prematurely into the discussion of the question. Their conduct is scandalously indecent ; but they mistake the character of Englishmen if they suppose that this at tempt to bully the House of Commons will have the effect of deterring Members from the discharge of their duty, or obtaining them partisans throughout the toun try. We must remind our consistent Contemporary, the Times, that having so long stimulated Ministers to abolish Church-rates, it ought not to oppose 'diem on this occasion. We must remind our Contemporary that it never spoke with more truth than when, a year or two ago, it stated, that though "the English people may be Protestant, a very large proportion are not Protestants of the Church of England," and that " the Protestant congregations of the E s t a bli s h e d Ch urc h oug h t to sup port that Church from their ownresources exclusively.' But we regret that want of space will not allow xis to avail ourselves of the aid of our Contemporary, who so much outran Ministers in its zeal for the abolition of Church-rates. And now one word to lessesis, for whose interests the Times yesterday felt so deep an interest. It is not necessary to waste many words our this cry of " Church lessees in danger," sshich has: been raised with the forlorn hope of persuading thee holders of Church-lands that the:ir interests are to bet sacrificed by the proposed plan.

To give him the option ors purs chasing the reversion of his property by spying a rent equal to the interest of the difference betweesa those two sums.
