This opinion is, no doubt, founded on a misunderstanding of a passage of the 90th Psalm, where it is indeed stated, " That the days of our years are threescore years and ten, end if, by reason of strength, they be fourscore ) ears, yet is their strength labour and sorrow." Now, it must be remembered, that this Psalm is ascribed to Moses, and that he is not speaking of the lives of men in general, but of what was occurrar , among the Israelites in the wilderness. They died not a natural death, but were cut off for their sin and unbelief by judicial dispen sations. _ _ _ The clever Dr. Farre maintains, that 120 is the last grant of God to man, and quotes the sixth chapter of Genesis, and the 3d verse, where it is written, " My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh ; yet his slays shall be an hun dred and twenty years." Now, we find this expressed inten tion on the part ot God gradually carried into effect—the Mei ple of vitality appearing to become weaker until the close of the era in nhi h the post diluvian patriarchs flourished ; when although several centuries had elapsed since the Deluge, we find that one hundred and twenty years v< as about the average of human existence. Supposing, then, that the theiiry of long life is well sustains d, the question naturally is suggested how are we to attain what is so desirable ? A wise general, on the eve of battle, makes a proper disposition of his forces be forehand, and does not wait till the enemy has made an attack, and thus, by forethought and due preparation, reasonably ex pects a victory ;—thus, he who has a desire to attain a healthy, and, consequently, happy old age, does not indolently wait for the attack of the enemy, whieh is sickness, but is constantly on his guard against his insidious approaches, by paying proper attention to the state of his health. Many would fain occasionally use medicine to assist nature in her operations; but, like a mariner at sea without his compass, knowing not where to steer, they first try this, and then that, and meet with nothing but disappointment; to those, how welcome must be the important fact, that PARR'S MEDI CINE is all that is required, the line tonic properties it con tains invariably restores the stomach to a healthy longing for food ; or, in other words, it produces a good appetite, so much envied, but so seldom enjoyed, by the invalid ; the gentle stimulating powers it possesses assists the stomach to properly digest the food it receives ; the balsamic powers it bestows on the sy stem p roduc es that delightful feeling of bodygood to very dcsirable, and disposes both mind and everything under its influence soon wears a joyous healthy exercise;et, and the varied duties of lile are performed with pleasure. asP It, in addition, contains a fine y nights, sti g n i iir e e s sound sedati v a e o q d u r a e l f i r t qua, and, sleep.nst e a d I ro the long stomacha ndw a t n , a d r yb t a c g a r t e e t s mb a le purgative, and, by cl redundancy of bile, its it, e a a c o ts s i a n s g theo mwers, ildest totally y n o i o r s a t a d a medicine so benign To have pro k luce and completely removes all obstructions toloieditonttelsdtiinnaltscanal curing disease of however long standing, ope ration and effects, and yet so effectual in o s s e b a t r b e t h t i i n o g g, o o u n t and mghenk'snoo‘fvleilgeof his subject.

HOLLAND'S BALSAM of SPRUCE, the newly-discovered Remrdy for COUGHS, COLDS, INFLUENZA, INCIPIENT ASTHMA, and CONSUMPTION. The singular efficacy of this Medicine is manitested in the almost miraculous recovery of multitudes suffering from bad Colds, Coughs, Soreness and Rawness of the Chest, Sore Throats, Hoarseness, &c., &c., it giving relief an hour after taking ; but the most astonishing fact is, that it has, restored hundreds labouring under astlimas, for periods from ten to twenty years standing, unexpected by even the proprietor him self. Many also who. in the prime of life, had every prospect of falling into consumption, , and had tried every other remedy in vain, by a judicious recourse to this valuable medicine, have been restored to their fam.ly and friends, and are this day living monuments of the benign influence of Holland's Balsam of Spruce. The Fifteenth Testimony in favour of this extraordinary Medicine, from Mr. 11. -r D. Bnst,formerly of Winterton, Lin colnshire. " Southampton, Feb. 12, 1841. " Sir—Having had my chest weakened much by frequent at tacks of inflammation, so that, when taking the least cold, 0 1' which lam very susceptible, I have for several years suffered much by its attacking me there in a variety of shapes, I have taken horehound, linseed, and most of the advertised medicines, some of them with tolerable effect ; but meeting with your Balsam of Spruce, promiscuously, when much afflicted, 1 was induced to try it, and am thankful to say I found immediate re lief, and by taking two bottles was completely cured.; indeed, so perfectly, that I had not felt so easy at my chest for twelve mouths prior. I recommended it to two parties, who also ex perienced the same beneficial results. 1 feel it my duty to ac quaint you thus, and wi,ll you an extended sale. I feel assured that it will impart relief and give satisfaction ; it is the best me dicine for the purpose I have taken. " I ant, Sir, your obedient servant, " Charles Holland, Esq. " R. D. BUST. " I have lately had another attack, and found Vie same happy relief. " R. D. B." This case will be immediately followed by others, to the num ber of nearly 100 already received ; its astonishing power in subduing coughs and colds exceeds all belief, whilst its healing, balsamic, and soothing qualities instantly relieve soreness and tightness of the chest, sense of suffocation, sore throat, &c.

BEAUMONT SMITH, AT BOWr STREET. Yesterday being appointed for the final examination (1) . E. B. Smith, for the fOrgery of the Exchequer hills, which has created 'such a sensation in the public mind, he was conveyed, about two o'clock, to the Court in a cabriolet, by the Governor of Tothill- fields ; and, after a short delay, the witnesses not beit"s then in attendance, he was introduced and placed at the bar. Mr. Waddington, as counsel, and Mr. Maude, solicitor to the Treasury, conducted the prosecution ; and Mr. Martin, the barrister, with Mr. Walmesley, appeared for the prisoner. Mr. WADDINGTON having briefly stated the case, a conversation took place as to the necessity of examining the witnesses de now who had given evidence on the two examinations at Whitehall, and it was ultimately agreed upon that the depositions which had been then taken should be read over, instead of examining the wit nesses again. Mr. Burnaby then proceeded to rend the whole of the evidence, as taken before the Chancellor of the Exche fuer, Sir R. Peel, and Sir James Graham, which is as ollows ;--- " Mr. Monte, solicitor to the Treasury, stated, that on the 25th of October he attended at the Exchequer-office for the purpose of comparing a number of Exche quer bills, or, what appeared to him to be such, with the counterfoils, to ascertain if each tal lied with each counterfoil, commencing with No. 6,404 and 6,405, with consequent numbers, the first of which did not correspond, and the same was the result with others. It was then suggested that a mis take might have been made with 6,404, and it was again tried, but with the same result. Mr. Wood, Mr. Blake, and the prisoner, were present, and as they were con versing, the prisoner said he wished to .speak to witness in private, and on their retiring to an adjoining room the prisoner, who appeared to be much disconcerted, said he had resolved to disclose the whole matter to witness, for he had suffered great anxiety of mind, and he had con templated self-destruction. He had contemplated that re solution chiefly to make reparation to the public interest, and he also assured witness thatno person in the office was concerned in it but himself. He said, •I am the author of all the mischief Witness said, •Do you mean to state that you forged the bills ?' and he replied that he had put the numbers on them, but another hand, he would not disclose, had put the name. When comparing the bills 6,404 and 6,405, witness asked if he had put the numbers upon them, and he said he had, and that he bad seen the name of Montea,7le subscribed to them. He also said he put all the bills into the hands of Rapallo, and had commenced such business in 1836, or six years ago. Witness asked him if he knew for what amount he had issued bills, and he said he could not tell, but it was for a large amount, and that it was easily done, and witness could have done it himself. He was asked how, and he replied that he had a number of bills over and above the issue which he used for the purpose, many of which were given to Rapallo with the numbers only on them, without the signature, and that sonic of them might be still in Rapallo's hands. Mr. Wood was called in, and being told what the prisoner stated, that he was the author of the bills, lie was requested to hear it from the prisoner himself. The prisoner then repeated nearly the same statement; and witness told him that he should prevent his leaving the office, and he was subsequently given into the custody of Inspector Partridge. The prisoner asked if he did say he could not disclose the hand that put the name on the bills-, l e _ stead of he should not, and witness replied it mieee b e so. Witness did not observe that he was excited, n, ere was a leaf in the book of counterfoils that Appeared to be the remainder of one torn out; and utian witness re marking it, the prisoner assisted in showing that it be longed to an adjoining leaf. Ile also showed that one of the bills which a gentleman thought correspouded with one of the counterfoils did not. From the time he saw the prisoner until he retired with him,' he gave all as sistance to exumine the books and papers," Mr. Samuel James Wood, an accountant in the Ex chequer-office, who was called into tho room by the last witness, after corroborating the principal part of his evidence, said that the prisoner admitted having assisted in the fabrication of many bills, that he had numbered them, and that the signature was attached, but ho could not say by whom ; and his impression was, that he pur sued it since 1836. He also named Rapallo, to whom he had given them, and exonerated every person in the establishment, as having any knowledge of them. He said that Rapallo promised that the bills should be redeemed before exchanging, in March and June ge nerally, and witness thought he said there were 100 first, and then 50, at 1,0001. each. The bills examined before going into the private room, belonged to De Berekani. A discussion took place as to the propriety of taking the evidence of Inspector Herring, who, Mr. Maule said, was absent on business, by the direction of the Police Commissioners, but Mr. Martin said he would have no objection to allow it being read. It was as follows : " He was in the station-house in Gardner's-lane, West minster, on the 25th October, and at nine o'clock, having gone to the cell, and told the prisoner lie was the In spector on duty, and had been at the Chancellor's-office in Downing-street, and at the Home-Wilco, the pri soner asked who was there, and he was told, Mr. Hall and Sir James Graham. Ile then asked if witness had seen Mr. Wood, and he replied he was in Downing-street. The prisoner then said that he was in much trouble of mind, and had been so for some time, and hoped his wife would be able to stand it, He said he had broached it to - her on Saturday, mind it came upon. her like a clap of thunder; that the first difficulty he had was lending his name for 1001. to a friend, who came back, and he gave another bill in his own name, which he either said had come back, or he had borrowed money at an extraordinary interest; that his difficulties • increased until that time to the amount of 1,800/, and finding himself so awkwardly -situated, having no money to recover himself, for to take the benefit of act would be the loss of his shut tion, his friend advised him to get some Exchequer bills, which.he did in an evil hour; they were blank bills and 14,0001. were vested upon them. Witness remarked that was a large sum, and he said it was, but it was done to relieve him from his difficulties. He said his friend promised the blank papers should be returned. He then told him he had seen Levi at the Chancellor's.office, and he asked what sort of a man lie was, and if lie was in custody, for lie (Levi) had deposited 6,000/. worth of bills, Witness observed that it was wonderful such amount of bills could have gone into the market without being detected, and the prisoner said it was almost impos sible to discover the forgeries, and that if these bills were shuffled, he could pick out the black sheep; that the money with which they had speculated had in al most every instance been lost; that they had speculated largely in the British Iron-works previous to the Chan cellor's decision, which was contrary to what they had expected, and it was done with a view to turn them selves round, but it went against them. The prisoner also said there was .a gentleman named Ra pallo, but Mr. Maule took no notice of it. He said this person had been engaged in the Bonaparte expedition to France, when he too a boat to Boulogne, and he thanked God he had failed. The friend he had mentioned in the commencement of the discourse, was the same Ra pallo. The communication was made (lilac willingly, and witness asked no questions, but let him go on, nor did he urge him to make the statement. In answer to a question by the prisoner, witness said the money ap peared to him to have been raised by the friend, and he did not recollect, from anything the prisoner said, that lie had participated in it further than to relieve him from difficulties." The prisoner was then cautioned, and he signed his statement. Mr. HILL said he was surprised the inspector should have been sent out of the way when his presence was of such impertance to sign his deposition, and answer any questions that might be put to him, and he should nut neglect to mention the circumstance in the proper quarter. William Marriner was then sworn, and examined by Mr. WADDINGTON—He said he was Secretary to the Mining Association, and resided at 26, Throgmorton street. He knew a person named Rapallo, a Genoese, for three years, but had not transacted business with him more than a year and four months. They were often concerned in the British and Foreign Funds, and to obtain money on Exchequer bills, he being in the habit of giving witness a great quantity of Exchequer bills to raise money on. Witness had handed all the bills to Mr. De Berckam. The accounts respecting the bills and other transactions with Rapallo were kept In the book produced.

PRICE 5d chequer bills, and seeing some mention made or the preseEt charge in the newspapers, he took 64 of 1,0001. to the Exchequer-office, and finding that Barclay and Co. and the Westminster Bank had duplicates, • he went with them, but never heard of the prisoner until that day. He also went to Mr. Mobier the broker, who knew sona th ing about them—found the numbers the satnea.nd the pr: • sonar said it was his handwriting, and they.were gennint , but there was an error in issuing them, and several aer • examined to sue if they would correspond. The - two produced, however, were the only ones examined in his presence. Mr. Dudley Montague Percival, Assistant-Comptroller in the Exehequer-office, stated that the Assistant was di rected by Act of Parliament, in the absence of the Comptroller-Generel, to sign his name. According to the mode in which E xc h equer bill s were prepare.., it was quite impossible that two genuine bills of the same num ber. date, and value could be in the same issue. When he said impossible, he meant that the precaution to carry it into effect was as follows : When any series of bills were brought to the Comptroller-General, or the Assistant, to be signed, the book of duplicates is produced to either of them fur that particular series in which the number of hills is to be signed, the first and last as of arithmetical series contained in that number, and the title under which the particular issue is made, with the value of the bills already entered, (Witness here drew a plan on paper to explain more clearly his evidence to counsel.) When the bills are brought to be sined, they are noted in the presence of a clerk in arithmetical series, and if no clerk is present when signing is gone on, he is called in, and every leaf i s looked over and examined in the presence of the person Signing . , after which the signing officer signs the book of record in the same line on which the previous entries have been made, but in another column. Another examining clerk signs his name also on the column opposite in the same - book. The date of the day on which the bills are signed is entered in the extreme columns at the right and left, all the en tries being made in duplicate on the spot. As to the counterfoil, every Exchequer bill is printed on duplicate on a broad sheet of paper, a broad scroll running down the middle of the sheet, on each side of which there are three bills. The bills engraved on the left side are inten ded to be kept as a counterfoil, and are numbered in regular order by a clerk in progressive and regular se ries. It is the duty of another clerk to number th e bill s intended for issue, as each bill on the right hand and the counterfoil hear the same number as the corresponding bill on the left, and when the right hand bills are cut off to be signed, issued, and stamped, care is taken to cut through the scroll that a part may be left of the counterfoil and issue. Witness compared the two bills in question, and they corresponded in neither way. The signature of "Monteagle," Nos. 6,404 and 6,405, was not his, nor that of witness, he was certain. 'Witness identi fied various bills produced as having been signed by him, and they corresponded with the counterfoil, and in other respects. Mr. WADDINGTON said that as that was the whole of the evidence about to be offered, he thought the case quite ripe for the committal of the prisoner on the charge of forging and uttering the bills in question. Mr. MARTIN asked if the prisoner would be again *sent to the prison from whence he came ? Mi.. HALL said, as far as he was concer:ica, there was no doubt that the prisoner should be and there was no necessit/ for , 'committed for trial, fields Prison. sending him . to Tuthill ' Mr. WADDINGTO: 4 said it would be keeping up the question u:lllv. .,bsarily to remand the prisoner, and there was.ll° e l :eat hardship in sending him to Ncwgate. rp. -Lie prisoner being cautioned, and asked if he had any thing to say, declined making any defence, as the case was in the hands of his legal adviser, but he refused to sign the declaration. The witnesses were then hound over in the sum of 1001. each, and after some conversation respecting the improper conduct of Inspector Herring, in absenting himself from the Court, the prisoner was removed from the bar. COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) WEDNESDAY, Nov. 3.—About ten o'clock on the night of Tuesday, the 26th ult., as the Rose tender was lying in Chale Bay, on the look-out for smugglers, a suspicious sail was seen off St. Catherine's; they made fur it, a'd thought they saw a number of tubs thrown into the sea, and a boat put off with two hands in it ; they captured her, and then boarded the strange vessel, which proved to be a Frenchman, with six Frenchmen on board, five of whom they took out, but the sixth, the captain, would not leave the vessel. Captain M'Conochy put four hands on board of her, ordered them to proceed to Cowes, while he, in the tender, looked for the tubs. He suc ceeded in getting seventy-nine of them on board, and then proceeded with them and his seven prisoners to Cowes, where he expected to find his prize there ; but, from that time to this, has not been so fortunate. Strange stories are told about the French captain, who, •in diffe rent ports, is called French 'rem, French Harry, and French John—and of the number of men he has killed or thrown overboard ; and the general opinion is, that. the first ncwsti of him and his vessel will be from a French port. The Tartar cutter's boat, which was washed on shore in Chale Bay, the grew of which were supposed to have been drowned, it appears, was washed off the beach near Swanage, where the men had placed her, while they took a glass together.

This is without drawback, viz. :—no alteration of the Lamp, no excessive heat, no breakage of chimney glasses, nor stoppage of the lamp tubes by coagulation of the oil ; in fact, nothing more is required than that the Oxydator should fit the lamp burner, to obtain a bi illiant, innocuous, and powerful flame. As a lamp i 3 kept burning for the free inspection of the public, those who value an invention for its worth to the community will be much gratified in seeing a scientific and chymical principle of the highest order carried into general usefulm - ss by means at once simple and effective.

This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged by theaddition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked; or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious e ff ec t s sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors have for a considerable time devoted themselves ex clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of so doing:, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in. vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise from certain secret praetices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical - practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, whersin affections of the lung s, putting on all the outer appearances of . consumptior, which , however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour; is nowhere more . applicab'e than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent. a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse quence of some disease, which, for want of careful investiga-' tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con sumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tahes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing , this work, be directed and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often oon cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He Will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor; will here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to p o i n t ou t the dis astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not relinquished. - .

There is much of Doctor Chalmers' fervid co ituerice in this Treatise, which would':. otherwise be L u owing to the dry, practical, mat ter-of-tact nature of the subject. ThrotOiout the work the Rev.

In point of embel,ishments ) this Part io every way equal, if not superior, to its prede(43Stai. In particular, the sketch of " Power#court Watt , r• fall" is eminently beautiful; the varyinv umbra. geous s:iuduws of the thick copses on either side the cataract the brilliant, silvery flashing. tights of the falling water, the dark, rnfiied rod at the bottom, fringed also with waoo and relieved by the solitary figure of as angler;—these details are handled with a skill and delicacy that do great credit to ttie engraver, Mr. Willmore. H ar dl y l ess clever, in its way, is the view of the " Four Courti o "- in ihtb lin, wherein the difficulties of a long range of perspective are mastered in a very artist Vie style: In the letter-press department ova Inca with several curious particulars respecting the antiquities of the county of Wexford, ar.d an in teresting account of the neighbourhood of Ban now—interspersed with characteristic anecdotes —where, it seems the editor spent the years of her childhood. CR UIKSILINK S WINIB US. 7714 London, 1841. This amusing Miscellany has now reached its Fifth Number, and continues its career with un abated spirit and efficiency. There are some laughable comic sketches by Cruikshank, entitled " A Skating Party," Wherein an awkward squad of skaters are represented tumbling and rolling about in all directions, and in the most grotesque attitudes ; a view of a storm on the sea-coast, with a shipwreck in the distance, by the same artist, but his more serious and impressive manner : 'and several whimsical articles in prose and 'verse, more especially a hurnourous essay 'ander tha head of " Duns Demonstrated." THE FORGET-ME-NOT. Ackcrrnann, London,lB4l. " The Forget-me-Not" is one of the oldest and most carefully edited of the Annuals, having, as Mr. Shoberl informs us, just completed its twen tieth year. He is right, when he adds in his Prefice,. that " whether through fashion, caprice, or the positive demerits of some of those new comi e'.itors which started each succeeding year in the race of imitation, and mostly broke down in their first course, certain it is tha\ the Annuals, from especial favourites of the public, have conic to be regarded almost with:indiffer ence." There is certainly a very - evident indif ference exh:.bitcd towards Annuals by the pub lic ; and the reason is that they arc, for the most part, of the flimsiest character possible; and in the limited sphere to which they usually confi:ie themselves, evince but very ordinary ability; the poetry being, in nine eases out cf ten, but second-rate, and the prose fictions little, Vat all, superior. " The Forget-me-Not," how ever, is an exception, and consequently has been able to hold its ground in public estimation. In the volume before us—which, by the bye, pre sents a very gorgeous exterior this year—the:e is a judicious selection of prose and verse ; the prose tales, in particular, are some of them e3i cellent; and it is not often that we find hi an Annual, such an interesting story as Miss Law ranee's " Louis the Eleventh at Plessis-les- Tours," which refers to the closing days of this crafty and sagacious, but tyrannical monarch, and represents him,' as well as his confidential adviser, Oliver the Barber,in a very' vivid night to the reader. Of the poems, our favourite are those contributed by Miss M. A. Browne—:s,- pecially the " Memory of the Dead" which is full of genuine pathos. The Plates are eleven in number, and it is manifest that great pains have been taken with them by their respectiv6 engravers. " A Scene in Wales" shows a young Welch peasant girl seated on a mossy bank, under the shadow of a spreading, elm, with a milk-pail in her lap, and a pet goat at her Let. The countenance of the maiden is very prepos sessing; she seems rapt in thought, but of a phasing nature, for an arch smile is lurking in the angles of her pretty expressive meuth. Fort Rouge" is a scene on the sea-shoro.of Calais. The town is seen in the distance, with the low range of coast stretching far beyond it; and in the foreground is a group of sailors and their wives, who are indolently lying full-length on the sands, amidst a motley, variety of chests, baskets, and tubs, which appear to have b een just unladen from a fishing-smack.. The picture teems with life and bustle. " Rouen, Nor mandy," is a remarkably well-engraved and exhibits a view of one of the principal streets in this fine old French city. Of the re maining illustrations, the best is the " Surprise of Montrose," which is engraved by Rolls fro..: an original design by Eckhout. THE PARISH CLERK. 3 Vas. Colburn, London, 1841. The Editorship of these volumes was the last literary task of:Theodore Hook, and his long in disposition was, we dare say, often relieved by perusing their contents, which are exceedingly y exceedingly entertaining., and, in some instances, display fund of broad drollery, not mu ch inferior to that possessed by the lamented Editor himself' The work from t t o i l i i work is entitled " The Parish Clerk .o ,'; circumstance of its being a collection from time to time by one of those important pa rochial functionaries.
