No. 4, CLEVELAND-SQUARE, has recently been fitted up by the talented ARTISTE OF THE DOWAGER QUEEN, or Joseph Gould E. one of HER MAJESTY'S ESTABLISHMENT, who has a lease at only 1001 a year, tor 21 y ears, in consequence of his vast and clever outlay. The accommodation that will be found within com prises—two attics, and a commodite on the third floor; on the second door, two capital bedchambers, enjoying pleasant views ; first floor, two elegant drawing-rooms, opening into each other, 33 feet long, with semi bow windows, balconies, and verandahs; ground floor, dining parlour and breakfast parlour; and on the basement the ivtutl domestic offices. The house adjoining, No. fk, in Cleveland-row, of which possession may be had, in candour it must be admitted, will be much improved by recurring to the same skill, taste, expense, that has rendered its next door neigh bour so unexceptionable ; and as the tenure is freehold, and possession is amongst its advantages, it will not be difficult to enter into rivalry with its compeer. It contains—on the third floor, two attics ; second floor, two good bedrooms ; first floor, drawing-room, with hack ditto ; ground floor, two good parlours ; basement, kitchen, pantry, &c. I The drawi-rooms have a pretty PEEP I N TO THE GREEN PARK and from both houses. The abode occupied by Mr. Gould can only be scen, by a ticket from eleven till one, on the three Saturdays antecedent to the sale The one adjoining may be viewed, by a ticket, any day after the 14th of March. In conclusion, it is quite certain there is no situation where irs. provement is more ♦isible than in the vicinity of the purchases to which the public are invited.

They are, irr fact, TWO CLEAR GROUND-RENTS OF NINETY POUNDS AND A HUNDRED AND FIVE POUNDS A-YEAR, permanently secured, as they are held for the unexpired term of about eighteen years, at the original ground-rent of 101. a year tack,- and as far as the amounts go they offer to the small capitalist VERY SATISFACTORY INVESTMENT& Particalars may be obtained 21 days prior to the sale_ i of Messrs, Cameron and Booty, Gray's Inn : at the Auction Mart ;. and at Mr. George Robins 's Offices, Covent-garden. THE MANOR AND EST ATES OF LITTLE TAYNTON, FIVE MILES FROM GLOUCESTER. AND TWO FROM NEWENT, TWO EXCELLENT FREEHOLD FARMS, INCLUDING 330 ACRES OF EXCELLENT LAND, IN A RING FENCE, A GREAT PORTION TITHE FREE. MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed to SELL A. peremptorily at the Auction Mart, on THURSDAY, the 18th of April, at Twelve, in Two Lots, A VERY ELIGIBLE FREEHOLD ESTATE, and especially all such as desire to invest without any sort of risk. It includes TWO VERY EXCELLENT WELL APPOINTED FREEHOLD FARMS, with suitable Farm-Buildi toviscb, very desirably situate at Little Taynton, six Miles from Mitchel Mean, and only five miles .distant . from Gloucester, comprehending' 330 ACRES OF SUPERIOR LAND, underlet at FIVE HUNDRED AND TWENTY POUNDS A-YEAR. of which two-thirds is very superior Pasture and Feeding Land, in a high state of cultivation, in the occupation of Mr. W. K. Ford, and Mr. Ponting, at very low rents ; they originally PRODUCED SEVEN THE PORT OFHUNDRED GLOUCESTERPOUNDS A-YEAR. , it need hardly be remarked, has now become a formidable rival to Bristol, and besides this, the produce of this fine soil is available in less than five hours of the Metropolis of London. THE MANOR AND MANORIAL RIGHTS give consequence to the possessor ; to say nothing of the value of the sporting. By the way, we must not overlook a feature which, in days of yore, was accounted of importance, nothing less than a GOLD MINE. Extract from a description of England and Wales in 1769 :—" It ought not to be omitted, that at Taynton, near Newent, on the northern borders of tlis forest, a Gold Mine was discovered about the year 1700, of which a lease was granted tosome refiners, who ex_ tracted some geld from the ore, but had not spirit to fellow it up." Again, in England's Gazetteer, printed in vs% is the following Taynton, Gloucestershire, four miles S.E. from Newent, six from Mitchel-Dean, and seven W. from Gloucester. In 1700, there was an ORE found here, from which the refiners extracted gold," but they also lacked enterprise. Alining and refining is now a much more simple and less expensive operation than it was a century ago. A spirited individual will, in all probability, find this " A MINE OF WEALTH." Cheltenham, the most fashionable watering place in England, is only a short ride, and is a capital market, as well as Gloucester, for all the produce. Its exemption from tithe, to a great extent, is an important feature. The Estates may be viewed with the leave of the tenants, and particulars had at the King's Head, Gloucester; the Royal Hotel, Cheltenham ; of Messrs. Law and Tindall, Solicitors, New-square, Lincoln's Inn; Mr. Bailey, Solicitor, Gloucester; Messrs. Holme, 1 oftus, and Young, Solicitors, hew Inn; the,Auction Mart; and in Covent-garden. EM IGRATION TO THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. LAND AT SIXPENCE AND OO T NE SHILLING PER ACRE, AXES. _ All those who propose tcrernign,te will do well to enlist under the ba ners of a good landlord, in a genial, healthy climate, and prospects , of independence nowhere else so cheering and so certain. Mr. George Robins's territory, consists of 43,00 e acres of land. and not far from several ports, and contiguous to the Lea. It is to be divided into farms suitable to the views of the rich. the industrious, and the poorer class of society. He requires no rent for twelve months; then he proposes to let it for Sixpence an acre only for three years; and at a Shilling an acre for as many years after as may be required. A man whose capital extends to £l,OOO cannot fail to realise an in. dependence at a railway pace ,m ,• and ev £5OO is su ffi cient to hold out great encouragement. There is no time now for delay. This spring, that is in June, Scotland, England, and Ireland sh fur nish their quota of honest jolly agriculturists, who will have great encouragement fromltr. Robins, if their credentials be satisfactory. The-following is a succinct statement of the property It is situate in THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE, net two degrees tYcim the mouth of the Knysna, a navigable river for vessels of 400 tons, ten miles inland • seventy miles from the port of Veaufort, and three hours' ride only from the beautiful dis trict of Swartland. The Land is principally pasture, with a few thousand acres for corn and wine; it is admirably adapted to depas. tute sheep. and the Merino Wool is highly appreciated in England. There are Vineyards, and the Cape Wine is very fine. '1 he Madras Cavalry are entirely supplied from the Cape, as well as the Mauritius and St. Helena. Slabberts Pcort it is called, a most improveable Estate, and in the hands of Engli,hmen, or more especially, a few FIRST-RATE SCOTCH FARMERS, would soon become invaluable. Its position is on the direct road to the frontier, where a profitable business might be carried on Inde pendent of farming. It is near the ports of Massel Bay and River Knysna. The latter will probably soon be opened by the completion of api ojected road from Beaufort district to it. Vessels of 4uo tons burthen can enter at all times, and take cargoes on board four miles up the river. rhere are at the Cape ENGLISH SHEEP FARMERS, with moderate capital, say from 1,000/. to 3,000/. each, who have, within the last two years, located themselves in the Colony; and it is not a little gratifying to behold the fine flocks of well and cross-bred sheep, so abundantly scattered about; a convincing proof that the grazing qualities of the land are adapted for cattle as well as sheep. The wool flocks are fast increasing in all parts of the Colony, and, it Is said, froze the frontiers alone, ONE MILLION OF POUNDS ' , AT LEAST, WILL BE El. PORTED THIS YEAR. The Cape must soon FORCE ITSELF INTO NOTICE, for the investment of capital and introduction of labour, THE NEW TARIFF IS A MOST IMPORTANT FEATVRE. and the time of its introduction most apropos. The Colony will now export in large quantities Salt Provisions—Fat Oxen are produced there at 4/., or 1 1 A. per lb., the hide worth Ns. This is a brief outline of the advantages in perspective for men o character and small capital. The prospect is much more cheering than to Australia, whore such rapid fortunes are being made.

The Lives of Fishermen and Boatmen also insured. High rates of premium have hitherto operated against this kind of Assurance, but as the scale now adopted will be found as low as is consonant with the risk, it is believed that this fact, coupled with other advantaaes, will induce a great increase of insurers.

MR. GEORGE ROBINS has the honour to announce that he is directed by the representatives of the late .‘ RIGHT HONOURABLE THE COUNTESS ,OF MANSFIELD," to offbr to unreserved PUBLIC COMPETITION, in the Mansion, Richmond hill, on MONDAY, the 29th of April, and several succeed. ing Days, at Twelve for One o'Clock most punctually, An exceedingly VALUABLE MELANGE OF PROPERTY, so recherche in the several Departments of the Arts and Sciences, that IT WILL NOT BE QUITE SACRILEGE to designate it A VERY HUMBLE RIVAL TO STRAWBERRY HILL. There is se much to commend throughout that it will be dillicult to avoid injustice in shortening the representation which custom has awarded to such announcements. It Is ill probably be enough to enlist the attention of the scientific world to state that those who were ENRAPTURED at Strawberry hill may, without drawing largely on their kindly feeling, be DELIGHTED at this renowned receptacle of so many and such varied treasures. THE ANCIENT MANSION ON THE SUMMIT Of , RICHMOND HILL (to which the Countess, some ten years since, added the two wings, and encountered an outlay of ten thousand pounds) is, despite of this (in candour it must be proclaimed), in need of a searching repair; this, with the aid of a decorator gifted with a brain farm, will then surpass its original character and it will not be doubted that the splendid scenery in front (which it is fearle sly asserted is not surpassed throughout the kingdom) will render the expense a matter of little import; in fact, not worth a second thought.—The following is a short analysis of the treat which is in store to all those who know how to appreciate a singular combination of taste and vertu, RICH IN EVERY DEPARTMENT OF THE ARTS, vis. : SPLENDID BUHL, MARQUIETERIE, AND INDIA JAPAN CABINETS, TABLES, CLOCKS, AND CANDELABRAS IN ORMOLU, Antique Bronzes, Ancient Inlaid India Metal, and Ormolu Vases , BEAUTIFUL SEVRES, DRESDEN, OLD CHELSEA, AND ORIEN I'AL ORNAMENTAL CHINA.

A LIBRARY OF BOOKS, embracing several thousand Volumes and many Classical Works, and including an early and SPLENDID COPY OF " THE MUSEE NAPOLEON," printed in Paris during the reign of the EMPEROR NAPOLEON, and under his immediate patronage, and at the expense of the then Government, illustrated by a selection of particularly choice Proof and other early Impressions of the Plates, engra• ed by the most distinguished Artists of that i,eriod, and recording the most precious and valuable Paintings of the Italian Flemish Dutch Roman And German Schools, and s'hich during the Revolution, the Peninsula War, and the Reign of Napoleon, were (by conquest and other means) gathered from almost every National and Private Gallery in Europe, and concentrated in THE LOUVRE OF PARIS as one magical attraction of the inimitable powers of those Artists whose works have adorned the historic pages of art during past centuries. A considerable number of the pictures recorded by the engravings in this work were restored at the conquest of Paris to the various Governments to whom they originally belonged,. and thereby so dis persed the collection as to increase the high and just estimate of this matchless work of art. This copy was purchased at Paris in the year 1814, and to its continuation by Louis XVIII., also subscribed for, splendidly bound in russia, in six vols. folio. Also. BOYDELL'S SPLENDID EDITION OF "THE DRAMATIC WORKS OF SHAKSPEARE," a very fine copy, with numerous fine Engravings, 9 vols., London, 1812, elegantly bound in russi leather, with gilt leaves ; also, an im perial folio book of the collection of Prints, illustrative of the plays an this superb work, br artists of Great Britain, 2 vols bound in 1. A SELECT AND CHOICE CELLAR OF WINES, which are incomparably fine, including Port, Sherry, Madeira, and Pacorotte, from 40 to 50 years in bottle, still retaining its body. It was removed by the late proprietor from her town mansion about:3o years sii.ce, and deposited in its , present cellars in 1818, which have not bees opened for the last 24 years, nor until the property was placed in r. Robins's hands for disposal. Amongst the Green. house Plants are several VERY FINE LARGE ORANGE TREES AND CAMELLIAS. The Property may be privately viewed on the 19th and 20th of April; and the public view will commence on Monday, the 22d, and terminate on the 27th, by Catalogues, at only Is. 6d , which will ad. mit a party of Six ; also at the Star and Garter, and Castle, Rich mond ; the Grand Hotel, at the Slough Terminus; the Auction Mart; and in Covent-garden. Venetian French IN LINCOLNSHIRE, NEAR TO BOSTON.—IMPORTANT FREEHOLD FARMS, ADMIRABLY SUITED TO TRUS TEES, WHO WOULD INVEST IN PERFECT SAFETY, PRODUCING £2,700 A-YEAR, TOGETHER WITH ALL THE TITHES. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has the pleasure to announce that he is directed by the Devisee, in trust of THE RIGHT HON. LORD MCSNSON, DECEASED, to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETITION, on Tnuasoav, the 25th of April, at Twelve o'Clock, in One Lot, A MOST I NIPORTANT LANDED INVESTMENT, Freehold of Inheritance, and uniting very many substantial advan tages-- FRITH'S BANK, and EARL'S CROFT ESTATES. Are situate within two short miles of THE BOROUGH TOWN OF BOSTON : one of the best markets extant, surrounded by capital roads, and adjoining water carriage to all parts of England. The Land in this vicinity has, from days of yore, been proverbial for its supe rior quality ; it grows the best Wheat and Oats, and the Pasture is famed for its capability in fattening Bullocks very quickly, and those who are at all conversant in the soil of the land will know how to appreciate these important facts. The whole is occupied by a tenantry of long standing as tenants-at will; it will, however, be exceedingly desirable to make in this respect very considerable alterations. The Farms aro used in their ancient state, and arc infinitely too small. Sound judg ment will direct that they be divided into five or six, instead of the present number; it will then be a matter of great facility to provide substantial Yeomen to get rich upon this greatly favoured soil: but Mr. Robins would fail in his duty to the Public if he did:not state that the Houses and Out-Buildings throughout the Property are greatly in need of repair ; indeed, the suggestion he would venture to make is, to rase them to the ground, and with the materials, and less than £2,000, Three First-rate Abodes, with corresponding farming premises, replace the present works of antiqUity. It should be observed that there is a saving clause to this proposition, inasmuch as Robert Searby's abode and buildings need no ouVay whatever, and this is the largest ham. THE PROPERTY NUMBERS TWELVE HUNDRED AND FIVE ACRES INDEPENDENTLY OF THE TITHES UPON THE ESTATE. THE. WHOLE WITHIN A RING FENCE, besides the unpretending, but really comfortable little public-house, known as " the Monson Arms," where " mine host" Eno knows , and practices what belongs to the entertainment and comfort of his friends. The next important point will be to direct a purchaser's judgment to the rental. The clear yearly receipt for years back has been £2,660 a year. The times having varied, Mr. Robins has subjected it to a careful personal survey, and he is not a little pleased to proclaim a very welcome fact, that when the outlay already noticed is accom plished, the property will very readily produce, with an unexcep tionable tenantry, from .£2,700 to TWO THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED POUNDS A YEAR. The division of the soil is very encouraging ; there are 521 acres of capital Grazing Land, 230 acres of excellent Meadow Land, and 455 acres of soil congenial to Wheat and Oats; the former yielding five and six quarters and the latter from seven to ten quarters per acre. Now this representation of the Estate cannot be charud with colour. ing the Landscape beyond its deserts ; and it may be well to remind such as were last year sceptical in respect to the corn-laws, that the agricultural horizon is no longer clouded by doubt or uncertainty— the manly, judicious, and unequivocal declaration of Sir Robert l'eel ought to quiet the apprehensions of all those who desire to see the agriculturing and manufacturing interests go quietly in harness toge ther, without any undue partiality. Indeed, his declaration is so en couraging, I cannot do better than quote his own words—it will, or ought to silence scepticism : " I N EITHER HAVE NOR DO I CONTEMPLATE ANY CHANGE, WHATEVER IN THE CORN-LA WS." To conclude, Trustees, and all persons having their capital depo sited in the funds, will do well to ponder, and to exe r c ise their un d e rstanding, and the result must (or ought to be) that Three per Cents. at 98 is a fearfully high and unnatural price as corn. pared with Land which will now return a clear income of Three and a Half per Cent., with prospective views exceedingly delightful, when placed in juxtaposition with the Funds.

The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu tion, both in Its life assurance and deferred annuity departments, par ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex pense or ferfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies— the option of seleeting benefits and converting policies so as best to suit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well as to afford the full benefit to his family at death, and annual division of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that the society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy on the profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the amount already invested ; and this bonus, aceording, to an equitabie scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of fhtnre premiums.

STANDARD.—The silence (so proper in their po sition) which the Members of the House of Lords have hitherto observed upon the subject of the State trials in Ireland; is, it appears, about to be interrupeed by the Marquis of Lansdowne and the Marquis of Clanricarde, who have given notice of motions referring to the trials in question for this day week. The public has been long aware that the convicted traversers have given no tice of applying for a writ of error, resting upon those verycircumstWes which, as it appears, are to institute the ground of the motions of the two Noble Marquises ; but a writ of error from the Court of Queen's Bench in Ireland passes immediately into the House of Lords, and the effect of the motions of Lords Lansdowne and Clanricarde will be to anticipate a judicial deci • sion of the House by an extra judicial debate and judgment—a proceeding which is, to say the least of it, somewhat irregular and un usual. It may be, that the absurd project of a writ of error has been abandoned, and that the Noble Lords in question have been let into the secret. If such is the case, however, we must think that this secret ought to be kept no longer, for surely it were an ill precedent for the Appellate Court of the empire to take volun tarily and irregularly into consideration a process in an inferior Court, without an assurance that the process was not to. come regularly before it, in the form of an appeal. In other respects there is every reason to rejoice that a question which has been so much obscured by falsehood and calumny as the State prosecution in Ireland has been, shall be submitted to investigation by a body comprising so many able and learned men rs the House of Lords ; a body, too, which can claim the assistance of the fifteen judges of England. We know what the result of such an investi gation must be (for it is impossible that Lords Lans downe and Clanricarde can be allowed to have the whole - game to themselves) ; and if the effect of the premature movement be to revive, a fortnight before sentence, in more lively force, a sense of the deep criminality of the convicts, they will have to blame none but their own officious friends. GLOBF.—The Bill for " Improving the Practice of the Ecclesiastical Courts of England and Wales," which Lord Lyndhurst has originated in the House of Lords, gave rise last evening to a rather animated discussion, previously to its being read a second time. The loyal Commission, whiclr was issued in 1829 for in quiring into the constitution and practice of these odious Courts, may be regarded as the first blow struck at their existence. The discussions which have arisen upon the different Bills that have been framed for the purpose of improving their practice and remedying their abuses—although the measures have, from various causes, been withdrawn—have had the effect of drawing attention to the monstrous injustice in flicted by these tribunals. They owe their continued existence to the concealment and deep secresy which they succeeded in keeping up. The invasion of their retirement, by means of the inquiry to which their proceedings were subjected, and the persevering attempts to drag them forth into light—resisted, as those efforts have been,. by those who have an interest in preserving and perpetuating as many of their abuses as is possible—these agitations and collisions will be beneficial in their immediate and remote results. They will secure a diminution of the abuses so long com- plained of—a partial cleansing of the Augean - stable. Preparatory to the sweeping flood being let in, which shall purify the jurisprudence of the country from these anomalous and oppressive jurisdictions which, to the reproach of everything spiritual, are distinguished by the appellation of Spiritual Courts, it is something gained to have the nuisance abated. For these reasons we congratulate the country upon the in troduction of Lord Lyndhurst's Bill. The Noble and Learned Lord, it will be seen, adheres to the mea sure as it was originally proposed ; and thus demon strates the difficulties with which " a strong Govern ment" has to contend, when it applies itself to the re moval of abuses in which the Church has a pecuniary interest. There can be no question but that any Go vernment, if left to itself, unfettered by the Eccle siastical influence which invariably busies itself in such matters,. would gladly assimilate the jurisprudence of the country on all subjects relating •to • the pro perty and liberty of the subject, to one uniform mode .of administration. This, however, is an attempt too dangerous to be made on a large scale. The State may nibble at the outworks . , but must not venture to assail the citadel. The Courts Peculiar are to be abolished. The Arches' and Prerogative Courts . in the provinces of Canterbury and York are to be consolidated. This is something—a small instalment of the whole, which will certainly be demanded, and obtained, at no distant day. The Diocesan Courts are to be retained. The reasons assigned by Lord Lyndhurst for their preservation are worthy of notice. Antiquity is their sole recom mendation. Lord Cottenham expressed his dissatisfac tion with the Bill as it stood. His Lordship com mented, with great force of argument, and with some severity of language, on the constitution and practice of the Ecclesiastical Courts as they now exist ; and showed the insufficiency of the remedy sought to be applied for their improvement. In this he was ably supported by Lord Campbell ; and also by Lord Brougham, who gave an amusing historical sketch of the opposition with which Lord Grey's Government was assailed upon attempting to carry out the recommendations of the Commissions of Inquiry. To the speeches of these Noble and Learned Lords, and to that of the Bishop of •London, we can only generally refer as well deserving of careful perusal. The Right Reverend Prelate's remarks we regard as valuable inasmuch as they concede several of the objec tions which are urged against these courts. The Bishop admits that the opposition which would be raised against any attempt to remove them, is the principal object to their being abolished. This, from such a quarter, is gratifying, for the candour displayed and for the en couragement afforded to hope for their eventual removal. The adhesion of Lord Lyndhurst to the law of bona notabilia, as it now stands, is, however, in our view, the most glaring defect in his measure, and for which we cannot discover the shadow of an argument. We take his Lordship's own statement as the best exemplification of the mischiefs which result from the law, and the folly of allowing them to remain unremoved and undiminished. In order to regulate and preserve evidence of the succession to personal property (and, for certain reasons with which lawyers are familiar, but which are not easily understood by the rest of mankind, land is frequently treated in this respect as personality) by testament, or intestacy, certain legal. ceremonies are re quired. It is 'necessary to prove, the will in the one case ; . and, in the other, to take out letters of administration in the proper Ecclesiastical Court. If there were one general court in the Metropolis, for the whole of England and Wales, there wonld be no difficulty ; nor, perhaps, if there were one in each county town for the entire county. But wills and intestacies, being matters of spiritual cognizance, the familiar division of sheriffs and their counties must not be followed, but that of bishops and their dio ceses. An executor, or administrator, must make him self acquainted with the division of England into dioceses ; for if it should be discovered, subsequently to taking out the grant, that there were bona notabilia above the value of five pounds in any other' diocese than that in which the grant was taken out, the will must be proved over again in the courts there, and fees must be paid there also. And this process must be re newed upon the discovery of goods or moneys in any other diocese, how often soever the discovery may be repeated! Every Bishop is privileged to require a fresh probate to be taken out, at the same expense as the first! And this annoying . machinery, falsely called the administration of justice, is to be retained! PIMLICO PHILANTHROPIC SOCIETY.—On Thursday the third annual meeting of the donorsand subscribers to this Society was held at the rooms, 48, Grosvenor-place. J. Emmerson Tennant, Esq., M.P., took the chair. The Report, which was afterwards read, stated that within the last twelve weeks only 700 families had been relieved with 510 41b. loaves, 11 tons 7 cwt. of coals, 3,576 pounds of potatoes, and besides a sum of money given 36 blankets had been lent to various poor families. THE LAST CAMPAIGN IN AFFGHANISTAN.—The narrative which has just been given to the world by Lieut. Greenwood, of the 31st Regiment, describing the late triumphant campaign in Affghanistan under General Pollock, will excite great interest and curiosity, and scarcely less among general than among military readers. No personal account has hitherto reached the public of that tremendous retribution which so speedily followed the treacheries and disasters of 1841 in Caubul ; and tile terrible particulars of that retribution as here recorded will be read with an avidity only second to that which awaited the narratives of Lady Sale and Lieut. Eyre—to which this of Lieut. Greenwood forms an almost necessary sequel and companion. The author speaks as an actor in, and an eye-witness of, ahnost everT thing he relates; and his narrative being written in the plain off-hand language of a soldier, carries with it those unfailing evidences of truth and authenticity, for the absence of which, in cases of this nature, the graces of style and the charms of fine writing arc poor substitutes. THE HAIR.--Of the numerous compounds con stantly announced for promoting the growth or reproduc tion of the hair, few survive, even in name, beyond a very limited period; whilst " Rowland's Macassar Oil," with a reputation unparalleled, is still on the increase' in public es timation. The singular virtues of this successful invention for restoring, preserving, and beautifying the human hair, are too well known and appreciated to need much comment. .The very facts of the high and distinguished patronage it enjoys, its general use in all countries, together with nu merous testimonials constantly received in its favour, are au thorities which stamp its superior excellence and title over all attempts of a similar nature. Being universally preferred, its consequent great demand excites the cupidity of un principled shopkeepers, who vend the most spurious trash as the "genuine' Macassar Oil : whereas the genuine article is wholly the invention and property of A. Rowland and Son, and the amalgamation of its costly exotic materials renders abortive any attempt to discover its component parts—thus proving the imposition of all other articles bearing the title of " Macassar Oil." The genuine • article has the words. " Rowland's Macassar Oil" on the wrapper.—All others are fraudulent counterfeits: • Now ready, with Woodcuts, post Bvo., 1 2 s.
