ACIDULATED LOZENGES of CA YENNE—for habitual Sore Throats, Hoarseness, Relaxation of Uvula, and a refreshing stimulus during Field Sports. These Lozenges have received a patronage almost unprecedented in the above cases ; they are also of great utility to persons in the habit of Public Speaking; and the highest testimony in the Musical World has been advanced in their favour, where the Voice has been influ enced by a humid Atmosphere, and diminished in tone. On this consideration they are particularly woeful to Tra vellers, who are unavoidably exposed to damp. In Boxes, at 2s. and 4s. 6d. ANTACID LOZENGES of QUININE—The new Preparation of Bark, called Sulphate of Quinine, is the in gredient on which the Tonic properties of these Lozenges depend; but that the effects may be more adapted to the object for which they are intended, Antacids and Aroma tics are combined. The Lozenges can be confidently re commended in all Affections of the Stomach, such as Indi gestion, Heartburn, Acidity, Flatulence, and general Weak ness of that Organ. They are found extremely service able in Gouty Attacks, especially when the Stomach is more immediately engaged. In Boxes, at 2s. and 4s. 6d.

In Bottles, at 4-s. 6(1., 7s. 6d. and 20s. The VEGIE TABLE TOOTH .POWDER.—This Den trifice has so long been in general use, and an appendage to the fashionable toilet, that it is almost unnecessary to offer any further recommendation in favour of it. Com posed of Vegetables, without the admixture of any Mineral or perniciou s ingredi en t w h atever , i t i s f ree from the usual objections se justly formed against the use of other Dentri- Sem Its detersive power is just sufficient to remove those destructive particles which adhere to the Gums and the Interstices of the Teeth ; and if used regularly, will pre serve them in a sound state even to old age. In Boxes 2s. 9d. PECTORAL. ELlXlR.—Experience during a very long period has incontestibly proved the superior efficacy of this Medicine in all cases of Cold, Coughs, and Asthmatic Affections. By promoting gentle expectoratio n and acting as an Anodyne, it very shortly relieves the patient of a s light or recent Cold, and a few doses are generally suf ficient to remove those which neglect has rendered more confirmed and obstinate, and which are accompanied with Cough, Spitting of Blood, and other serious symptoms.

The following is an abstract of the Bill now going through the House of Commons, to regulate the carriage of passengers in merchant vessels from the United Kingdom, to the Continents, and islands of America. Section 1. That no ship shall sail from any port of the United Kingdom or its Dependencies to the Continent, or islands of North America, with more persons on board than in the proportion of four per sons for every three tons of the registered burthen of such ship, and that no ship shall carry any such passengers unless there be a space of five feet and a-half between decks. Two children under the age of fourteen, and three under the age of seven, to be computed as one person. Sec. 2. There must be good and wholesome provisions on board such ships, for the consumption of the passengers, to the amount of 60 gallons of water for every person, and 50 pounds of bread, bis cuit, or oatmeal for every person, Captain and crew included. By the 4th section, a list of the passengers is to be delivered by the Captain to the Collector of Cus toms at the port where the ship clears out, and a counterpart of such list to the collector er chief officer at the port where the passengers shall be landed. By subsequent sections, the master of such ship incurs a penalty of twenty pounds for putting any passenger ashore without his or her consent; and also a penalty of twenty pounds for every passenger taken above the proportion mentioned in the first section; and also a penalty of 100/. for an offence against the enactment respecting provisions, or for neglecting to deliver a list of the passengers. And for more effectually carrying these provisions into effect, the Master or Captain is obliged to enter into a bond for 1,000/. The act not to affect Post-office packets, nor to extend to the Bahama DEATH OF TILE RIGHT REV. DR. TUO/I Y, R. C. Bisuor OF LimEnrcir.—On Monday evening, at his residence, Newtownrille, near Limerick, at the advanced age of 74, the Right Rev. Citts. Tcrolrv, D.D., Roman Catholic Bishop of Limerick for the last fourteen years.— On Tuesday morning, the remains of Dr. TUOMY were conveyed to John's Chapel and laid out in the centre aisle, with the usual forms, and on Wednesday, after Office and High Mass, were removed for interment to St. Patrick's Church-yard, followed by an immense concourse of every persuasion.—Dublin Morning Register. THE GASTRIC JUICE.—It is found by che mical experiments, that tho juice which is in the stomach of animals (called the gastric juice, from a Greek word signifying the belly) has very peculiar properties. Though it is, for the most part, a tasteless, clear, and seemingly, a very simple liquor, it nevertheless possesses extraordinary powers of dissolving substances which it touches or mixes with ; and it varies in different classes of animals. In one particular it is the same in all animals ; it will not attack living matter, but only dead ; tho consequence of which is, that its powers of eating away and dissolving are perfectly safe to the animals themselves, in whose stomachs it re mains without ever hurting them. This juice differs in different animals, according to the food on which they sub sist ; thus, in birds of prey, as kites, hawks, owls, it only acts upon animal matter, and does not dissolve vegetables. In other birds, and in all animals feeding on plants, as oxen, sheep, hares, it dissolves vegetable matter, as grass, but will not touch flesh of any kind. This has been ascer tained by making them swallow balls with meat in them, and several holes drilled through to let the gastric juice reach the meat; no effect was produced upon it. There is a most curious and beautiful correspondence between this juice in the stomach of the different animals and the other parts of their bodies, connected with the important opera tions of eating and digesting their food. The use of the juice is plainly to convert what they eat into a fluid, from which, by various other processes, all their parts, blood, hones, muscles, &c. are afterwards formed. But the food is first of all to be obtain e d, an d th en p r epared by bruising, for the action of the juice. Birds of prey have instru ments, their claws and beaks, for tearing and devouring their food (that is, animals of various kinds), but those in struments are useless for picking up and crushing seeds; accordingly they have a gastric juice which dissolves the animals they eat; while birds which have only a beak fit for pecking and eating seeds, have a juice that dissolves seeds, and not flesh. Nay, more, it is found that the seeds must be bruised hefore the juice will dissolve th ein ; t hi s you find by trying the experiment in a vessel with the juice ; and, accordingly, the birds have a gizzard, and animals which graze have flat teeth, which grind anti bruise their food before the gastric juice is to act upon it.. —olyects of Science. nom Tit GTE or LA AT NIGHT, War-Office, 24th March, 182 S. 7th Regiment of Light Dragoons.—Philip Thomas Her bert Wykeham, Gent., to be Cornet, by purchase, vice Cheslyn, who retires.
