BUTLER'S ANTACID LOZENGES OF QUININE. roll. RELIEVING HEARTBURN, FLATULENCE, INDIGESTION, GOUTY AFFECTIONs, AND GIVING TONE TO THE STOMACH. OF all the recent discoveries in Vegetable Chemistry, none has been received by the Faculty with more satisfaction than that produced by the French Chemists, from Peruvian Bark. The Sulphate of Quinine is found to possess all the tonic and febrifuge properties of the Peruvian Bark, in a concen trated state, deprived of the extractive and resinous matter. —lt is thus evident, that in debilitated Stomachs, arising from whatever cause, no INledicine can be more desirable. In the formula from which these Lozenges are prepared, the Sulphate of Quinine forms the chief ingredient; but, that the effects may be more adapted to the object for which they are intended, it is combined in such propor tions with mild Absorbents, Anti-acids, and agreeable' Aromatics, as to render them applicable to every Stomach labouring under loss of tone.

HER,CULEAN TASK.--On Friday last, a• person named Smith, th ,, brewer at the Chesterfield's-Arms,. Bingham, undertook to draw a cart, laden with half a ton weight of bricks, from beyond Saxondale to Bingham, in . four hours, the distance being two miles and a half, which he very easily completed in less than one hour and a half; and to prove his competency to the task, he took up a man of 14 stone weight on the top of his load, nearly half a mile from home. About two hours afterwards, the saint man drew a heavy cart 400 yards, at one breathing, agreeably to his wager.—Many bets were depending on the above.-- Lincoln Paper. All apprehensions as to the effects of the re cent irruption have now entirely subsided. Th e indefatigable and precautionary measures adopted by the engineer have proved completely success ful, and excavation has now partially re-com menced: Boxes 9, 10, 11, and 12, have been moved forward to the extent of nine inches', anti the brickwork which immediately succeeds them. has been made good. The importance of this improvement exists in the fact, that at this COL of the shield it was that the water broke in ; and it is, therefore, fair to assume, that if these boxes can be moved without disturbing the earth, there will be no difficulty in pro pelling the remainder. Several of these boxes have, however, received material injury ; and although they have all been raised to a perpen. dicular position, it will still 'require a few days more to cleanse and repair them before the gene= ral movement takes place. Monday next is 'it present understood as the day on which all the miners will be at work. The public in general have no correption of the extent and danger of the accident. example ; one of the iron floors, weighing about ten, hundred weight, was broken in no less than seven different places by • the immense pressure , . and weight, upon.it, To remedy-this accident was a work ,of great difficulty and danger. The shield itself, - in which *the work is carried on, and which is supported by two pieces of iron of great strength, called legs, was materially injured by the total destruction of one of these pillars. Indeed, to enumerate the various injuries in detail, would be much too tedious. It will be recollected that at the last general meeting, of the Shareholders, held at the City of London Tavern, the Directors, amongst other things, reported that there remained in the hands of the Bankers, available, to the purposes of the. undertaking, no more than about twenty-fire thousand pounds, and arrangements were in con templation for laying before the public some plan for procuring additional funds ; but it was deemed advisable to suspend the adoption of this mea sure until excavation had actually recommenced., That recommencement having been • •macfc,' Meeting of the Shareholders will shortly take place. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cla rence has recently manifested considerable inte— rest in the works, and has intimated to the. Directors his intention of visiting them in a few days. The western archway, that appropriated to vi sitors, having been entirely cleansed, is now cover , ing lightly with pozzalano. The composition is of a much lighter colour than that generally used in England, and, assisted by the newly-erected lamps, the .gas for supplying which is manufac tured from oil on the premises, the brilliancy and beauty of the coup d'ceil is materially increased. REMARKS OF A RECENT TRAVELLER IN ITALY AND THE lONIAN ISLANDS. FERRARA, AUG. I.—Although it is a part of the Austrian policy, with regard to its Italian provinces, to restrict the facilities of communi cation, as calculated to disseminate revolutionary naignmedi noi:rltki• i_'i principles, I am glad to perceive that public con veyances have increased considerably since my last visit to this part of Italy. A few years ago, it was impossible to reach this place from Venice in less than three or four days. Now the jour ney is performed in a very comfortable diligence in eighteen hours. There is not, perhaps, a more charming ride in all Europe, than that along the Brenta, from Chizzo, where we landed from . Venice, to Padua. The road is admirable, and mor mountains thickly ualn.i ltca ni s i t t i e n s : I l o d fw e Fi d drl o i u n s lt iae:arnei statues, :i s: rf d oi el: fountains, charming ti,ass,,t e: splendour villas, shrubberies, and gardens, almost to satiety. The azure b to the right, produce a truly romantic effect as contrasted with the even surface of the plains of Lombardy, cultivated to a degree which might well excite the astonishment and admiration of an English farmer. The Brenta, though rather a muddy stream, rolls along with such ceaseless rapidity in every season of the year, that it gives both a phases and picturesque effect to . this part of the country. On •leaving Padua, we were cheered with a fine view of the Euganean hills, covered with woods and vineyards. This inte resting region, on which Arqua, where the re mains of Petrarch lie buried, has been celebrated by Uga Toscolo, in his famous romance of Jacopa Ortis, one of the most popular novels of Italy. The Duke of Modena has a very de. lightful retreat in the neighbourhood, where he passes a great part of the s o u fi. m n m eNv er r , iev a e‘ n vre d iri el a , p af e oe a rw r r appears to be enjoying the otium cum dignitate at pre fwsoearnst jammpolr3, improving i n t more ghet h magnificent f his eo inl l n i u i g l ilii communication os, plans hereafter. n Napoleon, tal y , t l o t little more than as eibtlhvooreuaort:::aanbd obligedr iadrgr arrived co d acrosspass these this n P after landing on the right bank.
