POST -OFFICE LONDON DIRECTORY For 1842. " The plaintiff's publication was 'one of considerable bulk, and most probably of great utility : and so the Vice Chan cellor: of England must have thought by granting the injunc tion ex parte, and continuing that proceeding upon motion made to dissolve it." Vide " Times" of 20th December, 184 I.—Judgment of his Honour Vice Chancellor Knight Bruce, confirming the Injunc • tion obtained against the " Post-Office Almanac,' fur pirating ' Post-Office Dirictory." The following Reviews of the Complete Directory have al ready appeared : Times, December 3, 1841. This useful matter-of-fact volume has just been published by Messrs. Kelly and Co., of Old Boswell-court, Temple tar, and will no doubt be, as it ought to be, in the bands of every merchant, banker, and tradesman in the country. It is, independently of its utility, by which it is rendered indis pensable to every counting-house and shop, a curious sta tistical monument of the extent, importance, trade, and wealth of the metropolis, and as such a document deserving the attention eveh 'of persons who are not immediately in terested in commercial and business puriuits. The pressmt volume for 1842 contains some important new matter, with which the preceding volumes were not furnished—it has an im portant • addition, " The official Directory," an alphabetical list of all persons holding situations under the Crown, of all persons 'holding situations in the East India House, in the Bank of England, and in the various law, city offices, and all other public offices. This addition is of itself enough to show the great pains taken by the Proprietors to render the book perfect. There is also some useful information given relative to the " Money Order-office," to which, if the public would pay more attention than they have hitherto done, less would be heard of the loss of money by the transmission of remittances by post in the manner usually adopted. The number of stamps is,ued to the various newspapers published throughout England and %Vales is given, together with the amount of stamp duties on advertisements paid by each paper respectively, and, indeed a mass of information is brought together from which the best informed may derive some increase of knowledge, and to which the attention of the most ignorant and careless can hardly be called in vain. As far as the cursory examination can justify an opinion, and it is next to impossible to pay to such a work as this the minute attention it deserves, it appears to be compiled with indefatigable industry, extreme vigilance, and an excellent judgment for arrangement. Morning Chronicle, December 21, 1841. Wehave had occasion to commend the extraordinary diligence and accuracy shown in getting up the " Post office Directory" for former years, and no less praise is due to the publication of the present volume. It contains the same immense mass of information relative to the metropolis, which render s the work one of the most astonishing monuments of the greatness of London that can well be conceived. This information appears classified, distributed and arranged in a variety of ways so as to make the facility of reference nearly perfect. The corrections necessary from the changes of a year appear, as far as it is possible to judge, to have been carefully made, and it would be difficult to oter-estimate the labour involved in such corrections. We recommend it to the favourable cansi derationof the public ; and, in fact, it must be regarded as indis pensable in every house or office where business is trans acted. To those, if there he any, who have not seen it; it convey the best notion of the variety of its contents to say, that the single volume of 1,500 pages contains a Streets' Directory —Trades' Directory--Law Directoiy—C.ty—Parliamentary — Court :—Postage—Banking—and Official and Conveyance Directories—each a large work, and complete in itself ; though the whole are requisite to a publication which professes to be a Directory for Londcn. Alorning Herald, Nov. 30, 1841. This is a most complete anti extremely useful work. It em braces every point of interest in and near the metropolis that can affect the wants of the community at large, and is service. able to all classes of .society. Under one general head, it con tains a series of Directories, in which are enumerated all the trades, streets, names, official designations, Parliamentary, legal, banking, and Post-office references, that are in daily re quisition ; and, while it is of the most ample dimensions (ex tending over 1,500 pages) is accurate in the minutest particu lars. No public office or mercantile house should, in fact, be without it. Morning Post, December 29, 1841. . _ The charge, whether true or false, brought against the " Annuals," that, however pretty they may be, they are of little or no use, cannot in any degree apply to this singular publication. Within the single volume, neatly brought out by Messrs Kelly and Co., of Old Boswell-court, Temple-bar, is comprised all the information that can be useful t.j the fashionable, legal, or commercial communities. "It in cludes a " Com t Directory," which alone contains about five and-twenty thousand names; q. " La w Directory" of the most ample description, giving, among other details, no fewer than sixteen large pages of a " General List of Stamps ;" an I Official Directory,' with an index of six thousand persons balding situations under the Crown, in the Bank, the East India Hotise, and other public departments ; the " Commer cial Directory,". perhaps the folk st and most complete that has ever yet appeare I, and a variety of miscellaneous matter which it is impossible to particuttrise here. In short, from our own observation, we can safely pronounce this work a sine qua non to everybody who desires to become acquainted with the great metropolitan world of London. *hipping and Mercantile Gazette, Dee. 22, 1841. On our reference from time to time to the Post-office Direc tory of 1841, we felt convinced that nothirg could have been produced more perfect for the purposes for which the huge compilation was designed ; it appears, however, we were mis taken. The thick volume before us is vastly superior to the last, and is unquestionabl y " the most complete work of the kind ever published ;" the information is so judiciously classi fied, that although it extends over some fifteen hundred large closely printed pages, every department of the compilation might be consulted in a few seconds. It is surprising how ranged so accur a t e l y, exped . such a mass of i n t e lli gence can have heed collected and ar m ycheaply, ous , and neither which could of course be a ccomplish e d without the extensive and peculiar resources of the General k-hou llent se, co recor ffe d. e-room, or Post-office. No count ex e public office, should be without this Sun, November 25, 1 We have great pleasure in noticing this useful work, of which we have received an early copy. Jr exceeds the size of the Directory of last year, and probably is the most complete and correct tewnguide yet published. The following outline of the contents will enable the reader to form some idea of the vast undertaking.

VAN ZANDT, PR OTESTANT EPISCOPAL MINIS TER, FOR SEDUCTION. CIR (From the N ew Y or k H era l d.) ' C-UIT COURT, FRIDAY,3O. BEFORE THE HON .NATIXAN DAYToIs; J UDGE BTRcHtcurr. Trial of the R ev . Washington Yaw' Zandt, Rector of Grace Church, Rochester, for the Seduction of Miss Sophia Murdock. For the prosecution—Samu e l L. &Wen, Judge Samp son, Henry R. Selden, Graham H. Chapin, and Orlando Hastings. For the defence—Mark 11. Sibley, of Ontario, Addison Gardiner, Fletcher M. Haight, and E. B. Wheeler. Tho much-talked-of case of Murdock P. Van Zandt, came oil yesterday afternoon before one of the most crowded Courts we have ever seen in Rochester. There was far less anxiety and excitement in the case of M‘Lcod in Utica last October. Mr. Van Zandt sat. be side Judg Gardiner, ene of his Counsel, during the evening, and exhibited great firmness and composure. Miss Murdock was the .only witness examined, and the Court adjourned to this morning at half-past eight. Judge SELDEN opened the case for the prosecution— stated that this was an action for the seduction o f 1)r. Murdock's, the plaintiff, eldest daughter, Sophia, a young lady of sixteen years of age, by the defendant, Arr. Van %melt. On looking into the annals of our Courts of Law for the present year, it would be found that religious teachers are as liable to the grosser pas sions of our nature as others. It would be seen that Episcopalian, Presbyterian, and Catholic clergymen have been b roug h t forward' charged with this offence ; and, if he remembered correctly the results, they were in every case found guilty on the • fullest evidence. Clergymen have more frequent and favourable opportu nities fer this kind of indulgence ; their avocations bring theth oftener in contact with the females of their congregations, it being an impoqvut part of the pastoral duty to visit the members of their churches at their own dwellings, and hold religious conversations with them. These visits are chiefly to the ladies ; the clergy find them alone ; the male part of the family is generally out of doors at their various avocations. efur pastors have abundance of leiure on their hands, and it would be re markable if they were not brought into the company of females less able to withstand the addresses of men like the defendant, than others—less practised in the ways of the world. In the case before the Court, it would be found that the reverend defendant considered pastoral visits to his flock an incumbent duty, and that he paid these visits chiefly to the younger female mem bers, whom he addressed with peculiar zeal, frequency, and fervbur The nominal plaintiff in this action is Dr. Murdock, but the real head of the family is Mrs. Mur dock, the young lady's mother. Miss Murdock received an excellent teru,cation at some of our best institutions— her father was formerly considered a man of ability and skill in his profession—but he 11_11 into the habit of drinking intoxicating liquors, a vice by which so many able and good men have been lost to society—difficulties occurred in the family, he offered personal violence to his wife, was sent to prison a short time —came back a sick and, broken down man —was nursed by his tafectionate wife, and for the last year has been a re gular and abstemious man—but his mental powers had decayed—and his wife had had to support her self and family by her needle, and educate her children with the help of some friends. Miss Murdock is connected with and descended from some of the first families, in point of respectability and stand ?lig, in this State. A few weeks prior to the discoVeri of her situation, her mother remarked to a friend of.the family that she now hoped to see better days, as her eldest daughter was now capable of acting as an assist ant in-a school, having completed her education. At that time the youtg lady had a'perfectly fifer and unsul lied'reputation—tce breith of slander had not injured her, not a whisper against het character was heard in thiS community. But Mr. Van Zandt Came to this city, and has continued some years since as pastor of the Pro testant Episcopal Church in St. Paul-street. Mrs. Mur dock and her family were members of his congregation, and the young lady was frequently at his house. lie afllcted a great degree of piety and benevolence, pro fessed a wish to be kind to the family--approached So phia, caressed and kissed her—and when, six months af ter he removed his wife and family to Clinton-street, only some fifteen feet distant from her mother's door, he made her and her relatives presents of dresses ; they vi sited almost daily, he continued to profess that he felt a deep interest in the welfare of the family, but continued to take more indecent liberties with her. One day, on a summer's afternoon, of 1840, defendant said he was a l one i n hi s ;louse, and invited Miss Sophia and her sister to his study—they went—and while her sister sat reading the Mirror, in an arm-chair, with her back to them, he threw her on the bed, but she got away from him, and returned home. Seine time after this—viz., about the 16th of October, . _ 1840, one afternoon, just after dinner, Miss Sophia pre pared herself to attend a young ladies' sewing society meeting, and her - mother requested her to go over and get a certain book from the Rev. Gentleman's study, &c. (The facts stated here by Judge Selden will be found in Miss Murdock's testimony, which follows. She states that she was then and there seduced.) Her child Was born the 4th of August last, or forty-one weeks and two or three days from the time she stated. Shortly previous to her delivery (21st July), she was called to state her ease. to a religious Committee of the Society, and though Dr. Elwood thought it would be six or eight weeks before she would be delivered, she persisted then, as now, in naming Oct. 4, arid that time only, and that never after that day had she been with Mr. Van Zandt. It will be shown in evidence that the lieverend Gentleman did not take liberties with Sophia only—he took very indecent liber ties with her sister, a girl of twelve years of age, and with young and interesting feinalv members of - his congregation—ladies of the highest respeetability took all the freedoms that they would permit. Within a few days of the time when this olfenee was laid to Mr. Van /,limit's charge, in called a meeting of the vestry of his church, to make a deti,nee before it. The vestry 'net, and the deAndant then then: made the following re markable and truly characteristic admission:—After de claring the accusation to be false, he added, " that he could not be the guilty_ person in this case, for that knowity , his propensities in that way were so strong, h e avoided' being alone with females of his congregation, even .for religious purposes." After going further into the description of evidence to be produced, anti the pro bable course to be taken by the defendant, Mr. Selden closed hi address, the manner of the delivery of which was admirable. Ile then called and examined Sophia Murdock, who is 16 years of age 11th of April. Is oldest daughter of plaintiff. Has been acquainted with defendant about two years. Was a member - of his church, Grace Church, in bens city. Became acquainted with . _ him after he came to reside here. Has been at his house when he lived in Clinton -street, but not fre quently, until he came to reside near her father's, which was a year ago last April. Their faMilies became inti mate as soon as he removed ; Mr. Van Zandt had been in the habit of coining frequently to their house. She did not go, only when she had an errand, or when he had levees, which was once a week. When they were particularly invited, she went ; but not generally of her own accord. The defendant had a library of books, for the benefit of the congregation, and she was invited frequently to come and get books. Does not remem ber seeing any one in the library but daendant. lle was there. The• library was kept in his study, in a front room, in which was a bed. When alone with de fendant, in his study, his manners were very familiar. Never said much of anything, but kissed her frequently, nothing more. lie made her a present of a dress, and after, when he came to Saint Paul-street, he had given her four or five dresses. Does not remember ever being alone with him on the front steps. Does not remember at what time it was that he made the attack upon her ; but it was in his study, and again at the front steps of her house. She recollects that on two occasions he at tempted—twice on the front steps. It was about nine o'clock. The night was not dark.—[The evidence which follows is unfit for publication in an Eng lish Journal.] She does not recollect being at his house but once afterwards ; did not then see defendant; another time he attempted the same thing in his par lour; it was one evening, when she went to return a book. Her child was born on the 4th of August ; sh% first discovered her situation about a fortnight. before the. court of inquiry, 21st of July, when she told her mother. Never communicated her situation to defen_ [ant. He came to their house, and her mother told itn. Did not see him then, nor hear what her mother said. las no knowledge of defendant ever having called to see icr since then. Cross-examined—Hor mother sail that' defendant teuied having anyeonneetion with her. She had in her 'examination in chief, statO all the instances in which there had been any connection with defendant. At the time that he resided in 'Clinton-street, when he first kissed her, she did not go for a book. The books generally were of a religious character. Does not remomber ex- away what she did when he attempted to raise her dress the first time. She believes she requested him to let her alone. She did not speak loud, but loud enough for him to hear. She re members that on the evening of the 4th of July there were fireworks in Mr. Van Zandt's yard, and she was invited. When she went into the study . she sat on the bedside. Sat on the top o f t h e b e d.

Does not re member what she did when she came home. Does not remember how long before she wont over again to see defendant. Cannot say how many days. Saw defendant afterwards. Did not speak to him of what happened. Went to the house when necessary. Probably not oftener than once a week. She remembers having asked defendant if Mrs. Van Zamk was going to the Society, and he said she had gone. He was in the study. Cannot say how long she was with him.

No LONDON, SATuRDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1842. sons engaged in commerce, and lists of two thousand trades established in the metropolis, with the tradesmen attached to each, and the subdivisions of every trade aecuzately defined. There are separate Directories also for the Court ; the Par liaMent, with the must recent addresses of the Members of both Houses ; the Law, with a list of all officers from the Lord Chancellor down to the usher of the most inferior Court : and the City of London, with the names and add-e‘sses of all City Officers, Companies, &c. The Court Dir ec t or y i nc l u d es the names f twenty-five thousand persons not engaged in trade, and takes a wider range than any other work of the kind. The information respecting the Post-office will be found eminently useful to persons of every description ; and among other additions made to it for this year is one of great. impor tance, showing the time at which a letter from London should be delivered at any place in England or Wales, and the time at which the letter-box for London closes in each place. The facilities afforded-by the Postmaster-General give the compilers advan tages which could not otherwise be obtained. 'f he informa • Lion is furnished from the Post-office gratuitously, it is of the latest possible date, and has been all collected or confirmed within the last two months. We have hail little time vet to test its accuracy, but have no doubt that it fully maintains, in that respect, the high character of that published for the year 1841. The work is beautifully printed, sold at a moderate price, and will be found of great service to persons in every rank of life. Weekly Dispatch, Nov. 28, 1841. We have been favoured with a sight of this elaborate work; and we must pronownce it vastly superior to the previous vo lumes. The contents are admirably arranged. There is a dis tinct alphabetical list of the names, in number, of all civil officers under Government, in the Bank of England, East India House, and all other public establishments ; an alphabetical list of streets in the metropolis and its vicinity, with the inhabit ants according to their numerical order in each street ; the only Street Directory yet published which includes gentry as well as traders. There is also a list of all officers, from the Lord Chan cellor down to the Usher of the most inferior Court; Police Courts, with their officers and jurisdictions ; alphabetical lists of Queen's Serjeants, Queen's Counsel, Sergeants at law, Benchers, Barristers, Special Pleaders, Conveyancers,'Proctors, Attorneys, Notaries. &c. The names of all persons in the metropolis and its immediate vicinity not engaged in trade, are given with the most accurate lists yet published of the New Parliament, and the most recent addresses of the Members of both Houses. There are, besides, the name and addresses of City Officers and Common Councilmen; City Companies and their clerks ; lists of sworn brokers; Lieutenancy of the City, &c. A list is given of all the principal places in England, Ireland, and Scot land, distinguishing the which grant and pay money orders, and referring to the money-order offi c e n ea r es t t o th ose w hi c h do not; and an alphabetical list of the streets of London, with a reference from each to the nearest receiving-house which grants and pays money-orders. This will afford the opportunity in all cases, in town and country, of applying to the nearest office for a money-order, and of obtaining it upon the office most contiguous to the residence of the party in whose favour it is drawn. Another important introduction this year shows the time at which a letter from London should be delivered at any place in England or Wales, and the time at which the letter-box for London closes in each place; thus affording the opportunity of calculating . in all cases the " return of post." Independent of all this informa tion, we have copious accounts of all conveyances by railways, stage-coaches, waggons, vans, carts, vessels, barges, and boats ; with complete accounts of all the bankers, joint-stock banks, and banking establishments of the United Kingdom ; the names of the Directors and officers of the various Assurance Companies, with the rates of Assurance, &e., are also furnished in ample detail. One great feature in this work is, that it directs an individual to the position of any number in the street, by noting the intersectron of churches, courts, streets, lanes, alleys, &c., between one house and another. It often -happens that a person may forget the name of the tradesman he wants, although he knows the street. The Street Direc tory in this book helps him out of this difficulty by giving the names of the inhabitants of each house of No. I . upwards. Sunday Times, December 5, 1841. This useful work is just published; it is, in short, a com mercial, trades, law, court, parliamentary, city, postage, con veyance, banking, and an official Directory. It contains an almanack, list of stamp duties, Post-office rules, and, in fact, a body 'of intelligence to great for detail. Respecting :the accuracy of such a work, it is, of course, impossible to speak ; the most inveterate Magliabeehi that ever gulped quartos, or bolted folios, would scarcely undertake the perusal of a Direc tory. It is not saying too much to declare that the Post-office Directory is a work unexampled even in this country. To ap proximate closely to the communication of the names, resi dences, and trades of the inhabitants of London, is a task from which a literary Hercules might flinch. Railway Magazine, December 4, 1841. Judging from the great superiority of the list edition of this work over its competitors, we did not anticipate the improve ments which have been effected in the present, which not only place this Directory at the head of the list, but must drive the others out of the field. An entirely new division has been introduced, viz., the " Official Directory," which furnishes the full names and positions of all persons holding public situations under Government, the East India Company, the Bank, &c. The scope of that important branch, the " Street Directory," has been very considerably extended ; and thou sands are now included, who reside without the narrow limits beyond which our books of reference have not before passed : here we have a register of all, whether dwelling in Barns-: bury Park, Basinghall-street, or Belgrave-square, in King's road, Chelsea, or in Kingsland; and one of the great advan tages peculiar to this publication is, that all inhabitants are inserted in their nu erical order. Na know of no other street list in which either all the- gentry, or all the mer chatats, traders, and tradesmen are not—incredible as the fact may appear—entirely omitted. We may mention that it gives the names of the Directors of most of the Railway and Insurance Companies, and a complete List of Officers of Joint- Stock Companies. The " Parliamentary Directory" is co pious ;' in it the offices held by every Peer and Commoner are accurately detailed, even to the recent appointment. of 'Lord Ellenborough as Governor-General of India, and of his suc cessor at the India Board, Lord Fitzgerald. The " Postage Directory " furnishes much original and highly valuable in formation in reference to Money Orders, and to the precise time of the deliveries of letters throughout the country. A volume so valuable as this will be generally apprec:ated. It does honour to the establishment which can put forth so vast an amount of authentic information of character so diversified ; and it refle c ts credit on those who have so arranged it that the work is equally a model of compilation and of typography. We cannot but think that a title more appropriate than merely "Post-office London Directory" might be chosen. The work surely merits a name . that would convey a definite idea of in formation so vast and varied, uniting as it does, in one volume, Directory, Court Guide, and Court Kalendar, and superseding the whole class of similar publications. ----- Britannia, November 27, 1841. The old proverb says, it is good to let well alone; but, we see no possible reason why well should be left to stand still, so long as better is clearly attainable ; and such appears to be the opinion of the enterprising proprietors of the " Post-office Lon don Directory." The present edition is superior in many re spects, to any of its predecessors. On its first appearance, it was a neat and correct pocket-volume—nothing more; but it h as gone on improving and augmenting from year to year, till, by the mere force of its manifest superiorit ' it has fairly beaten every co mpet i tor out o f t h e field, and become, from the variety, copiousness, and accuracy of its information, an indispensable requisite to every count ing-house and shop in the metropolis and its suburbs. It would be quite impossible, in a brief notice, to give anything Ike an adequate idea of the contents of a cloSely-printed royal octavo volume, running to upwards of 1,500 pages. It can only be justly described as a series of Directories, each one complete in itself, and each of peculiar value to every per son engaged in business. For instance, is the residence of any ' , articular person required, a reference to the " Commer cial" or " Court Directory" will at once give the desired in formation. If a complete list of all persons engaged in any one of the various professions or trades exercised in the me tropolis is sought, turn to the " Trades' Directory," and you have, ready to your hand; arranged in alphabetical order, and with the residence attached, a return of every ac countant, apothecary, artist, lie., &c., within the limits of the bill, of mortality. It is the same with every other depart ment of the work. We have never seen any volume containing so much matter, so well divided, and clearly arranged. The intimate connexion of the Proprietor with the Post-office en sured him the most accurate information ; and his printers' exteris!ve printing-. (Tice and steam-presses enabled him to issue his sh.pts with surprising rapidity ; so that every change is made up Anot to the day of publication. The whole book is worthy of the iniglity city it anatomises ; the most correct, as well as the must useful, record of its industry, its vastness, and its intelligence; and, if we keep in mind the enterprise ncees. sary for the conception of such a work, the immense care re quired in its preparation, the enormous capital required to pro duce it, and, considering its hulk and variety, the surprisingly los price at which it is issued, we must pronounce it, notwith standing the typographical wonders daily issued from the press, the most surprising volume to which the first city in the world has yet given birth. John Bull, November 27, 1841. _ Again we have to bestow our praise on the completeness and cheapness of the multifarious information comprised in the " Post-office London Directory," which comprehends within one moderately sized volume, of clear and easy reference, a Commercial, Trades', Law, Crurt, and Parliamentary Diree, tory. It is at once the fullest volume of the kind, the most ex act, has the most recent intelligence—the information it em bodies having been collected within the last seventy da3 s from official sources, and through agents pos7essing the requisite lo cal knowledge, and is altogether the compleest guide-book to the metropolis that has hitherto appeared. Spectator, Dec. 4, 1841. . . This extensive work still continues to grow. Besides a revi sion and extension of the other branches, the Official Directory has now been increased so as to form a divisiop of itself. This part, like the other sections of the iubjeet, is subdivided ; one part containing a list of Government and other public offices, under which the names and employments of the persons are arranged ; the other presents an alphabetical list of persons holding offices under the Crown, in the East India House, Bank of England, &c. And such a muster-roll !—an army, nay, a population, of place-holders ! Nonconformist, December 8, 1841. Another edition of this colossal work has just issued from the steam presses of Messrs. Kelly and Co., 19 and 20, Bos well-court, Temple Bar. The greatest credit is due to all parties connected with the compilation of this book, for the assiduity which must have been exercised, as well as the talent displayed in the execution of every branch of it. This has been achieved by dint of great labour. As a whole, we look upon the Post-office Directory as the most complete work of the kind ever published. National Advertiser; Dec. 18, 1811. Thismork is in 1,527 imperial octavo pages, and the study of the compilers appears to have been to render each page a speci men of systematic arrangement, and of how much information it is possible to convey in a given space. We do not believe that any work of the kind exists so nearly approaching perfection. The resources of the Post-office, and mighty they are proved to be, arc here wrought out into every useful variety of combina tion, and to each division of the book has been imparted a labo rious finish, that only those accustomed to literary labour can entirely appreciate. We nett, r before saw a Directory which included an Official Kalendar, a Law Guide, anda Peerage and Parliamentary Chronicle, besides all the Nobility and Gentry, Merchants, Professional men, and Shopkeepers of the metro polis and its vicinity. Globe, December 1, 1841, This useful " Annual" comprises among other inform a ti on , an Official Street, Commercial,. Trades,. Law, Court, Parlia mentary, City, Postage, Conveyance, and Banking Directories. It is only necessary to announce the publication itself, and to add that arranged as it as been with great care and attention, aided by sources of official information peculia:r to itself, it may be 'taken as a safe guide in the various matters upon which it professes to enlighten the public. • W.

A•DECIDED CASE of CONSUMPTION RADICALLY CURED by PARR'S LIFE PILLS. " TO THE PROPRIETORS. " GENTLEMEN,-I feel it a dut y I owe to you and to the Public at large, to ackno w led ge th e most important benefit I have received from PARR'S LIFE PILLS. I was for nine years a soldier in the 52d Regiment of Foot, and was discharged in October 1839, in consequence of ill health (being deemed con sumptive), after having the best advice her Maiesty's service afforded. I returned to my native town, feeling that my days could not be long on earth. But by what almost appears an in terposition of Providence, my attention was directed to Parr's Life Pills, and by taking only two 2s. 9d. boxes, I was com pletely cured. and am thus a living monument to the good ef fected by this valuable medicine. Within the last few days I have been on a visit to some of my friends in a neighbouring village, where I was told that It was like seeing one risen from the dead, to see me walking through their streets.' I have recommended them to my neighbours,• and many of them have experienced very great benefit from their use. " I am, Gentlemen, yours, &c. JOHN OSBORNE. " March 8, 1841. Witness—James Burgess, Bookseller, Hinckly." Mr. John Osborne's case was pronounced by the regimental doctors to be incurable consumption. By the aid of this won derful medicine he is now so hearty and active as to be en abled to travel on foot, since the date of his recovery, upwards of 1,200 miles. CAUTION OF GREAT IMPORTANCE. Purchasers are requested to ask for " Parr's Life Pills," as their great and deserved reputation, and consequent large sale, have induced several unprincipled parties to attempt various imitations. Persons who are desirous of testing the wonderful efficacy of this medicine, must observe that none are genui ne without the words PARR'S LIFE PILLS be engraved on the Government Stamp, on white letters on a red ground. Already actions have been brought, and damages obtained, against unprincipled parties, who, for the sake of larger gain, have sold dangerous preparations when asked for " Parr's Life Pills." The Proprietors are determined to protect the public from such frauds, by prosecuting all persons engaged either in preparing or selling any imitation whatever.

The unavoidable .consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, and even bad books. With the force of thin i" i prejut leo on our minds, we with no little reluctance Were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled “Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp.

To —Old England. quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (Front the London New Price Current of Fehrwtry 4.) SUGAR.—The anxiety manifested by the importers of Bengal and Mauritius Sugar to realise, has nearly put a stop to business in the British Plantation Sugar market this week. The demand has been extremely limited for both grocery and refining , purposes, the trade having been enabled to supply their wants with other descrip tions of Sugar upon more advantageous terms. To-day the market was in a very dull state fur all de scriptions of Raw Sugar admissible for home consump tion, and prices carther declined ; ari opinion gainii:g ground that Government will make some alteration in the duty on Foreign Sugar, caused both grocers and re finers to operate with much caution. The sales of West India for the week are only 200 hhds and trcs, at prices Is 6d to 2s under those of last Friday. REFINED.—The refiners have sulinitted to a redue- tion on last Friday's rates of is 6d to 2s per cwt. ; Stan dard letups at 79s to 79s 6d, brown' lumps 72s to 7Ss., Tittlers ord 783 to 795, mid to fine - 80s to'9oA, liambro' loaves - common 79s to 81s, mid to• fine 82s to 925, and double loaves 98s to_ 116 s per cwt.

EAST INDlA.—Prices have suffered a ferther decl'ne of is Gd to 2s for white, and 6d to is fur brown sorts of Bengal ; importers having pressed large parcels on the market, the demand has been limited. This afternoon Bengal was taken sparingly by the hoine trade. The public sales consisted of 5,195 bags, a very small part only of which founds buyers at a further decline of is per cwt; good and fine white went at 69s Gd io 70s 6d, mid and good mid 66s to 68s, low 635, ordinary to good brown 44s to 495; s"ice the sales, however, se veral parcels have been sold.

White at 29s to 30s for good and fine quality. For brown Brazil full rates would be paid, but the small supply has nearly put a stop to business: white prices at 20s to 24s 6d for low to good quality.

Bengal Syrup at 23s to 255, Foreign Molasses at 6s 6d to 8s per cwt. TEA.-There has been less activity in the market for Free Trade Tea this week, and only a sma" amount of business has been transacted by private treaty. At the public sales the bide.'ngs were languid for both Black and Green Tea ; merchants generally evinced &illness, and bought in and withdrew large parcels; those parties, however, that were disposed to realize were compelled to submit to a reduction on last sales rates of id for Con aensa e p r sae rates, sa Con gou and Twankay, and ld to 2d for Pouchong, other sorts went xt rather rt purchases made 1 -1 0id ir to 'To-day fair r t e o e a l r i a o d i e d T p e o a td we fo re r common Congou, cash, and i s iold • for Company's, which are scarce. The deliveries of Tea keep large COFFEE.—Holders of West India Coffee have evinced firmness, and have supplied the market sparingly this week; mid and good mid clean qualities have been much inqaird after, and very full rates .have been paid; the supply,. however, is not ample fir the demand; ord and fine ord sorts have been only in limited request, but the rates previously established have been sustained. This aftermion the market was firm for Coffee, but there was not much business done; at public sale 348 bags Brazil, 13 casks 70 bags British Plantation were offered; the former sold at full rates, fine ord I),uneiara at 75s to 85 Gd; the latter at the 9d duty taken in at 40s for good ord colory; one lot, however, sold at 42s for fine, being the full value. Cocoa.—The market for West India has been in a dull state this week; good red Grenada went at 375. This afternoon at auction Trinidad sold at 41s Gd to 45s for mid to fine red, being full rates. SPICES.—There has been an increased demand for Cassia Lignea this week, and prices have advanced 2s to 3s per cwt. The market for Pepper wears a firm appear ance, a fair demand has existed privately, and former rates have been fully supported. There are few buyer 3 of Cloves, prices however have been sustained. The de mand for Ginger incre;ises, at stiffer rates. For Pimento prices have an upward tendency. This afternoon the public sales consisted of 1,904 bags Malabar Pepper, 110 bags ginger, and 80 bags Pimento Pepper sold rather cheaper, and went a t 'id 3id for low to good half heavy ; Ginger went at 30s for bold Malabar ; Pimento 2id to. 3d for low middling.

WOOLWICH, Fan. 4.—At an early hour this morning the garrison and town of 'Woolw ich presented an animated scene, owing to the preparations in progress for the reception of the Kin,;, the Prince, and Duke Ferdinand of Saxe Cobourg, was Kin" At o w f e i: t r y u s n a u n t d Pe minuses rpi ast te n Albert. th e observed approaching, and the signal being given, the Royal carriage containing the standard was hoisted on the flag-staff, and a Royal salute an nounced the arrival of the Royal party, who immediately alighted and were introduced to several of the officers. 'rile exercises of the troops immediately commenced by the. Royal Horse Aitillery and Fiera Batteries marching past at slow and quick time, and tiring; but owing to the softness of the ground, or more probably owing to an evident anxiety in the countenance of the King of Prussia to embark, the troops did not gallop past, or fire so many rounds as on former occa sions. The Royal Horse Artillery, however, unlimbered their guns, and his Majesty went up to them while they sat upon the wheels, and remained with apparent satisfaction to witness the guns remounted in an incredibly short space of time. The Royal Horse Artillery were immediately afterwards ordered home, and the field batteries to proceed to the marshes. His Majesty the King of Prussia was by this time joined by Field Marshal the Duke of Wellington, who walked on one side, and the Duke of Cambridge on the other, across the common and through the south-west gate to the Repository, and during the progress of the Royal and distinguished visitors, the immense concourse of spectators who had assembled had excellent opportunities of witnessing the King of Prussia and Prince Albert, and - the grand and brilliant staff present in ho. nour of the occasion. The crowd following in the direction of the caarsligs on this occasion was most immense, and one so numerous has seldom been witnessed at Woolwich. Indeed, the attempts of the police to prevent the people from entering at the marsh-gate only in duced them to break through the hedges, and many most ludi crous scenes were witnessed of torn coats amongst the gentle men, and the women caught in the hedges by their veils and bonnets, or where their dresses were of slight texture. None of these obstacles, however, deterred the people from pushing forward, and they entered in masses in defiance of hedges, banks, and ditches,land the police. At the time of the firing of the rockets, the only practice carried on, there could not have been less than WOO persons in the marshes and adjoin ing fields. At two o'clock the King of Prussia entered the Fast gate of the Royal Arsenal, and within less than a quarter of an hour a Royal salute announced that he had embarked in the Firebrand steam-vessel, which had dropped down to the West wharf of the Royal Arsenal to receive him. Prince Albert and his suite left Woolwich about three •'cluck, escorted by the Life Guards, for Buckingham Palace. CUPAR-FIFE.—On Tuesday, while the Pres bytery of Cupar were considering the presentation to kettle, which had been laid upon their table, the Rev. Mr. Birrell, of Cupar, feeling himself unwell, retired into the Session-house, and, we regret to say, ahnoit instantly expired. Medical aid was procured, but without avail. The Presbytery, in consid era ti on o f t hi s melancholy event, adjourned their proceedings. Mr. Birrell, previous to his appointment. to Cupar, had been minister of •Westruther, and in both places was greatly beloved. On the death of the father of the late Attorney- General, now Lord Campbell, who had for many years the first c harge in the parish, Mr. Birrell succeeded to • the second charge.
