I bought them of Mr. Nelson, and lam happy to say that a box if them has completely restored me. " If this will do anything to help your efforts you can make use of it. - " I remain yours, respectfully, " JAMES SMITH." From Mr. HENRY B RBER, Druggist, Knutsford.

We have also additional testimonials from respectable farmers in this neighbourhood. " DEsa Eta,-.l have been for the last two years dreadfully afflicted with a cough and pain in the chest, so that I could scarcely eat the least portion of feed without causing great pain in my chest, and shortness of breath, with a violent cough, not being able to lie down for nine mouths; having had the advice of several medical men, without deriving any benefit, I was advised by a friend to try PARR'S PILLS, but having tried so many patent medicines, I thought I might as well throw my money away. I began to think nothing would cure me ; I was fast wasting away with a violent pain in my heal ; at last my friend got me a box rms." raur.abaip, sattadviseat me to try them, so I triad them; Wag so strongly recommended, according to the direction, and before I bad tikes one box, I found so much relief that I tried another; and-am now happy to say I am as well as ever I was in ray life, and shall always have a few doves by me, for they are wonderful. (Signed) " THOMAS CASH. ' Witnesa--John Thorpe." a Mr. PARRY has been afflicted wit➢ sore eyes for twelve yeses, and has tried everything he could hear of without the least oenefit, but since taking two boxes of PARR'S PILLS, his eyes are quite well, and have been for some time. " Mrs. SMITH has been troubled with a pain in her head for many years, has had the most respectable medical advice, without receiving any benefit ; is quite recovered since she has taken three toxes of PARR'S PILLS, which are worth a sovereign a hox to persons troubled with a sick headache; I shall always have a supply by me. • " These cues I have selected from a number of others, and can rely upon them as being correct. I shall feel great pleasure in giving every information to any person who may favour me with a call. " I am, Gentlemen, your obedient Servant, " Knutsford, June 30, 1342." " HENRY BARBER, Druggist."

WOODWARD, Chemist, "To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills. " GENTLEMEN,—The benefit I have received by the use of OLD PARR'S PILLS, induces me, out of gratitude to the Proprietors, and a wish to be of use to the whole world, to add another testi monial to the numbers you have already received. For the last two years I have been labouring under a complication of disorders in my head and stomach. I think I may venture to say I have not had an hour's cessation of pain during the time. My sense of -melling was entirely gone, and the most agreeable perfume or the most intolerant stench were equally indifferent to me! I have had the advice of several surgeons and medical men,. both in this town and ethers, but without the least benefit, and I had dispaired of ever again regaining my heal►h, in fact my life was becoming burdensome, to me, until I fortunately heard of the many cures which your valuable Pills had effected. I purchased a box of Mr. Woodward, druggist, and before I had taken the whole 1 was completely cured, and have never experienced the slightest symptoms of its return. I have recommended them, and shall do so, as I feel I cannot do sufficient for the benefit I have received.—l am, Gentlemen, your obliged and grateiul servant, " HENRY NASH.

Morning Chronicle, December 18, 1843 — l ' This is the 45th year of the publication of this most bulky and most useful of the annual'. It has yearly been growing in fulness and consequent usefulness, end it now contains a carefully arranged and elaborated mass of informa tion relative to almost every subject which car possiidy come within the, ifrovince of a Directory The care and minute attention with which the work has evidently been ,got up cannot but recommend it to very extensive public patronage. A consiAerable quantity of matter not contained in its predett tisors has been added to this publi cation, and tbe whole is neatly and cleverly printed." Morning Post, December 9, 1843.--.0" The new t di: ion of the' rest Office London Directory' for the , ensuing year has just been com pleted, being the 45th annual publication. It contains the names of a vast number of new people engaged in commerce and trade of every description. No relaxation altars to have t :ken place in the efforts ofthe proprietors to render this a most useful and indispen. sable volume. The amalgam rtion of the nobility, gentry, merchants, and traders in the ' Street Directory' is a most excellent plan, and the Law Courts and Parliamentary divisiens have been corrected up to the most recent possible date; the latter, especially, are brought down to a period as recent as th e Salisbury election. The ' Postal Directory' contains the latest regulations, and appears to have been arranged in a form at once comprehensive and easy of reference." Morning Herald, December 6. :843 This Diredtory may be considered a ne plus ultra in its way: Like Aaron's rod when changed into a serpent, it has swallowed up all that resembled it, its principal antagonist, the Directory of Robson, having officially suc cumbed to its superior size and enlarged contents. When we men. tion that it contains neariy,v,ooo cloiNly printed pages of reference to every conceivable subject that can atgiet the necessities of the London resident or visitor, we have only Indicated a small part of its value, which, to be properly appreciated, Must be examined with more minuteness than we have space tosletail. To one new feature we we may, however, Wirect attention•—viz., to that part which contains the Postal Directory,' where a digest will be found, Compiled from the most authentic st9rces, of tbe men& treaties with foreign Powers. The list entitled Universal states Of Postage' is a leo* succesneul attempt to produce them in a form at once comprehensive and easy of reference. Kelly's Directory is, indeed, not only the largest that we have ever seen, but, without question, the most perfect." Morning Advertiser, December 8, 1843.—" The 45th annual pub lication of this most useful work h s just appeared, and, having made a carefnl examination of its contents, we feel it to be an act of justice to the proprietor to say that the statement made in the preface as to the great exertions which have been made to render the edi. tion for 1814 worthy of the largest commercial city in the world, is fully borne out. Great additions have been made in the present edition as compared with its i omediate predecessor, albeit the latter itself was"On so vast a scale. The increase applies chiefly to the Street,''Commercial,''"Trades,' Law,' and Court' Directories. It would be difficult, indeed, to give an idea of the gigantic propor tions now a-surned by the Directory, and, as for the accuracy with with which it is compiled, all we can say is, that, atter testing it, as already described, we have not been able to discover one single mis take. Every information possible connected with a work of this nature. will be found in it. It is accompanied by an admirable map of London." Weekly Dispatch, December 10, 1843.—" The excellent manner in which, for years past, this Dtrectoty has been conducted, has at length entirely superseded its contemporary, Robson's London Di. rectory;' but although the managers have no competitor to stimu_ late their exertions for superiority, they have not ceased to devote their best exertions to justify the patronage they have received, and in the number just published for the forthcoming year, we find that the ' Street Directory' is issegely increased, and that it has an en. tirely new feature —viz,, 4ables of the universal rates of postage, compiled from atheist sources, comprehending an easy reference of the postal arrangements contained in the treaties with foreign Powers. This, and other information which the work eontains, could only be obtained by those who possess the same advantages as the gentlemen who manage the' Post-office Directory,' and so long as they continue to devote the same care and attention to the work that they have hitherto done, their labours will be appreciated and rewarded by the public." Globe, December 7, I,43.—"The present handsome volume, to which a large Plan of London is prefixed, and which unites the characters of a City and Court Directory, must be acknowledged to be worthy, in the comprehensiveness of its contents, of the greatest centre of wealth and commerce in the world. It is stated in the preface that 40,000 names appear in this volume, which eitser have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses ; and that the 'Street Directory,' which in the edition of 1843 was comprised in 366, in the present volume extends to 466 pages The • Postal : sirectory' furnishes new tables of rates of postage, in con. formity with the treaties lately soncluded with foreign Powers. On the whole, the volume is the most complete collection, of local infor mation that ever before was adapted to wants so enormous in local range." Britannia, December 9,1943.—" This wonderful volume—for truly wonderful it is in every respect— i this year augmented to near 2,060 pages, and, what we do not always find to be the case, its value is in creased in greater proportion man its bulk. Ihe m e rit an d use fulness of any work of this kind depend very greatly on the com pleteness of its details, and on its comprising all the information which the merchant, trader, or any other person engaged in business in London can reasonably expect to find ; and, by extensive addi tions, and the must laborious attention to minute details, this Direc tory is now made so perfect, accurate, and comprehensive, as to leave, as we imagine, no room for the exercise of further ingenuity in the way of improvement. Every department has been so enlarged as to render it certain that the required information will he found, and the system of classification is so well digested and carried Into detail, that, large as the volume is, any siegle name, or any item of intelligence, embodied in its multifarious contents, may be found without an instant's loss of time. Another merit is, that the information required is never given imperfect. If, for instance, you look for the name of any banker in the United Kingdom, you will not only find it with the proper address, but also with the house added with which it has connections in London. So in every other department; you miss nothing you want. and find much you could not reasonably expect. Among the judicious im provements of this year are the addition of 20,000 new names ; a valuable enlargement of the Conveyance Directory,' which now comprehends every kind of transit made up to the latest date, and the most recent regulations in the Post Office, with tables of the new sates of foreign postage. In its complete shape, with an excel. lent map, a dozen directories in one, with ever: dwelling in the metropolis and suburbs marked, with the name of every house. holder recorded, and the occupation of every merchant and trader defined, it presents an example of what may be effected by the union of enterprise, capital, skill, and industry when they have the dissec tion of a city like London for their object, and the certainty of its universal patronage for their reward—the certainty, because in truth the volume is a public boon, and as necessary to all persons engaged in trade as the commonest implements of the counting-house or the shop, as a day-book, for instance, or an inkstand." Shipping and Mercantile ,Gazette, December 14, 1813.—" This huge annual has again made its appearance. The volume for 1844 is larger than the last. This is caused in part by the late increase of buildings in London, but in a greater degree by additions to its use fulness. The Commercial, Court, Street, and other Directories are considerably enlarged, and so classified as to cause no loss of time in reference. The Parliamentary Directory' embraces the latest changes in the representation—namely, those of the City and Salis bury. The • Postal Directory' furnishes new tables of rates of post. age, in conformity with the recent treaties with foreign Powers. Besides the Banking. Conveyance,and Official Directories, the coun try inns throughout the provinces are given , ; indeed, every kind of information that it is possible to expect in such a work is supplied in A proof of the importance of tes all rivalry. Its presence, like i h yll e disappearance of all who venture learn t from a memorandum attached ut t t h h hpa e l ' n Itkornes Polyp ye sameo rp fti bb c r e ignkr 7 o, n isns d tda o h; n as f*Doi Baal i ma r w e Directory,' for annihilates to the volume that the Proprietors of Itobson's London Directory' have declared their inability to compete with the Post-office volume, and have consequently ceased to publish it. Thus the metropolitan, like the pastoral monster, has flung the fatal rock upon its most formidable rival. We should not forget to name that tho volume before us is prefaced by a good modern map of London." Herapath's Journal, December 9, 1843 —" Of the extraordinary productions of the present day, probably this is the one most calcu lated to excite astonishment. If these ignorant of the mysteries of typography are puzzled to think how it has been accomplished, all accustomed to literary labour, and therefore able to appreciate the difficulties of the task, must be infinitely more so. The various classifications have been well considered: Of all the merits of this it may be fairly termed—National Directory, not the least is the ex treme clearness and simplicity of its arrangement ; larger than the largest ordinary work of the kind, it can throughout be consulted with the same facility as a dictionary. This has been effected by judicious sub-division appropriate . headings—good indices—and strict alphabetical arrangement. The book Is divided into twelve subjects, each complete in itself, and yet all more or less connected with each other. We will take the first :—An arrangement of Y street, square, court, and metropolis, every street, and for some miles round, f ro m Clapham to Ball's . Pond, and from Stratford to. Not aplllace the ti ng -hill. This 11st is, as, indeed, may be said of very many others in the volume , unique. It gives the inhabitants of every place, nobility and gentry, merchants and shopkeepers, with in in hab t it h a e nts all at one view. is is a thing that, for obvious reasons, no other rtework has attemA description of the locality is likewise fur. nished, and as in each street those which intersect it are accurately described, the entire, a. well as being a copious Directory, partakes of the character of a general map. We have heard betore of Mr. M'Adam, the colossus of roads; but this may be truly called the colossus of streets. Had such a thing been in existence after the fire of London, a general and available registry of property would have been at hand, and, should it happen that a copy survive the metropolis it so well describes, the future historian or statistician might from its pages obtain an excellent idea of the wealth, extent, and magnificence of the greatest commercial city the world has yet s en, and of the pursuits of its inhabitants. We observe that in the Conveyance Directory several thousand new places have been intro onced , with all the newest railway information. The cost of the production of such a book must have been enormous, and to repay the energetic proprietors the sale must be very great indeed. Of this there can, however, be little doubt, as in any place of real business it cannot ee dispensed with without continued inconvenience" Mining Journal, December 9, 1843 —" This Diiectory for the forthcoming year, evidences the exercise of indefatigable research in the procuration of an immense mass of valuable information, and of great talent in its classification and arrangement, so as to be of the utmost use, and readily available. It presents a complete Post-office vade mecum, and abounds in particulars of such uiver sal importance as to become an indispensable requisite for the office of the banker, merchant, or tradesman. The accuracy and perfect arrangement of this work are deserving of the highsst praise, and the sale must indeed be considerable to compensate for the expense and labour entailed on its production." Spectator, December 9, 1541.—" This immense volume still con. tinues adding to it, facts and information, though the addition of new features seems to have stopped at present from the exhaustion of subjects. To what extent additional minutia' are added, may be guessed by upwards of :00 p tges more of large and closely-printed matter being given in the present volume." John Bull, Dec ,tuber 23, 1813.—" Nothing less than a Monster Review • could do complete justice to this Monster Volume.' which is indeed a remarkable monument of labour, industry, and accuracy. Among an almost indefinite number of other useful things, it corn. prises a complete 'Official Directory,' 'Street Directory," Corn. mercial Directory,' Trades Directory,' L ivis Directory,' Court Directory," Postal Directory; City Directory,' Conveyance Directory,' Banking Directory,' &c. In short there is nothing con. nected with this huge metropolis in the way of direction which will not be found here. It is mentioned that 40,000 names appear in this volume, which either have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses. while the Street Directory,' which last year was comprised in 366 pages, now occupies 438 pages. In the ' Postal Directory,' the latest regulations have been arranged in the part headed' Universal Rates of Postage, in a form at once comprehen sive and easy of reference." • The Sentinel, December 30, 1843. -" We were surprised to see, by an advertisement, that so old a favourite as Robson's Directory' was to be discontinued ;but after an examination of the Post-office Directory for 1844, we should be equally astonished if any book of the same class could be found successfully to compete with it, there being upwards of 1,900 pages of imperial octavo, closely printed, containing more than 100,000 names. Not only does its bulk give an idea of the enormous increase of the metropolitan population, but the many improvements in its arrangemAits are such as to impart the most important facilities in the expeditious dispatch of business. The discontinuance of the practice of making class distinctions its the Street Lists' will be found a great convenience. The information given on the subject of the Post-office arrangements has been greatly simplified,while the Map of London, which accompanies the work, and which has been prepared expressly for it, extends to a radius in. eluding the immense suburbs of the metropolis, with its most recent improvements."

In consequence of . the immense demand for the DISPATCH and SUPPLEMENT yesterday, containing a inn Report of Mr. Shell's most brilliant Speech, the Proprietors of thi3 Dispatch are apprehensive that numbers of persons, who may be -desirous of obtaining copies of their Journal, may be disappointed, unless provision be made •to - meet such demand. With this view they purpose striking off ten thousand extra, papers to keep on sale during the week ; and as, when these are 'disposed of, others will not be obtainable, an early application Is suggested, as the Supplement which accompanied the Dispatch of yesterday will be necessary to bind with those Supplements that are to follow ; so that when the great national trial is concluded a perfect history of the affair (including a biographical Sketch of-Mr. O'Connell), which maybe bound, or otherwise preserved as a matter of reference, will be in the pOssession of every. purchaser of the Dispatch, the proprietors of which, 'anxious to render the account perfect, will present (gratis) a Supplement each Sunday during the progress of the trial, and another at the conclusion, containing all the proceedings up to the Supplement of yesterday. .

REMOVAL or. CoNvicrs.—=Ni n ety-nine male and three female convicts have been removed from Newgate to the Penitentiary, preparatory to their embarkation for the co lonies. The terms of exile are—for life, five (of this number is Captain Samuel Sidney. Smith); for 15 years, four; for 14 years, four ; for 10 years,, thirty-six ; for seven years, 52. Frederick Charles Burnham Blackwell, a person respectably connected, was convicted of felony, at the January session, 1843, and sentenced to transportation - .for ten years. The matter has since undergone an investigation, the re sult of which was, that a free pardon arrived at Newgate last week, and the young man was set at liberty. .TORCIUAS.---SINQULAR DISCOVERY or 'THREE TtliEvEs.—On Friday night last, the wife of a farmer, named Croker, of Gabwell, dreamt three several times that a villager of Maidencombe, called Eales, was coming to murder her. At this she - wasuntch frightened, and desired her husband to go to Ettle,s's 'house, which is not far off, and see if he was at honie ; this was about twelve or one o'clock in the night. Cooker accordingly got up, and proceeding towards Eales's house-overtook him and two of his sons ludo with a quan tity of hay and straw, which' they had stolen from his (Croker's) yard, and hp 110 lest some several times before, titic had not been 41410 to - detect the thief. He immediately procured the village constable, and had thew next day taken betbre the magistrate's_ of Teignmouth, by whom they were committed to Exeter gaol to take their trial for the offence. —Western 77114C5. time has arrived when active measures' ralist be taken for the protection and relief of the industry of the country, unless we are prepared to surrender, without a struggle, the comfort and happiness of all the productive c l asses. We have long waited for some party in the State to arise,•who would propose to rescue our suffering people - from the cruel bondage in which they arilield laws passed, as we have reason to believe, without the knoW).edge of their consequences by those who teased them. Partial efforts have been made, having refer 4nce to class, age, or sex. The 'Anti-Corti-lavv. League would free the manufacturer from the oppressive burden of a corn-law which throws him out of all chance of engaging in fair competitiob with the cheaper-corn-consuming manufacturers of the Continent. Some benevolent individuals have exerted themselves greatly to protect children from undue toil in- the unwholesome atmosphere of mills and factories. Successful• efforts have been made to withdraw females from the degrading and demoralising labour to which they are subjected in mines and collieries. Rival parties are anxiously endeavouring to promote the moral and religious education of the children of labourers and mechanics, in the hope that a better spirit, superior moral habits, and is higher degree of intelligence may be cultivated in the rising generation, than are manifested by their fathers in the present. But these evidences off' diva tisfaction with existing things, and of a laudable de sire to correct the evil, are all limited to .a con fined sphere of action They are insufficient to meet the exigencies c f the time—to destroy that many-headed saute 2 which lays. waste our un happy country. We hoped to have seen some great principle advanced, which should-combine these iso lated desultory plans for relief in one general design, to secure the universal advantage of the common* wealth. Disappointed in this, we turn to our fellow-coon , trymen of every degree, and • ask 'them to join us in forming a society which, entertaining no schemes of private advantage, but devoted solely to the public good, hopes, by the corrective aid of, the Legislature, to remove the evils which an unfortunate act of legislation has created. - Our principles of action are few, plain, and incon;• trovertible. We acknowledge the great law which governs man's condition on earth—that he must earn his bread with the sweat of his brow ;—but we refuse to add to the primeval curse another of man's• crea= tion, that, because we have incurred a great:debt in carrying on wars for the security of the property of the rich, and the preservation of the homes of all ; whatever prOPerty a poor Working Mail might acquire shall'be taken from him to pay that debt, and he shall have no home left him worthy of the name. We ob T ject to the labouring man, being burthened with the task of providing all that wealth which others, who do not work,' enjoy at his expense, while they allow him, in return for unremitting toil,; less food and clothing, worse shelter, coarser and harder fare, than a West India planter allowed his slaves, or an Eng lish farmergiv'es.his horses. We are desirous of seeing the industrious Workman .partake of some of the.be nefits of those linprovements m machiOerY - Whielt have hitherto added .so wonderfully to the lutdries of the rich, but .have sunk. the poor into deeper poverty. Of what valne is the steam-engine if it does tot lighten thelabaur, abridge the honkS of toil, increase the comfort's, and heighten the enjoythenti of the great majority of the human family ? We will exert ourselves to obtain for all working men a fair share of the advantages derivable from our various me chanical iinprovements, so that every hard-working Englishman may become possessed of greater com forts than men of his class formerly enjoyed. To of: fect this, we shall urge that higher wages be given— wages not merely increased in numerical . amount, but able to command a' greater quantity of every useful and necessary article. We pledge ourselves to prove that this is attainable with the greatest facility, de pending for the , extent of its beneficial action solely upon a vote. of the Legislature. To the manufacturer we propose to ensure taxe r tion-prices • and in this respect we g o b e y on d th e Anti-Corn-law League in our intention to provide for his welfare. Our measures will procure his relief not only from the pressure of the cora-law ' froth but fro the pressure of every tax which operat e s tohis - disad. vantage ; so that he will be free from all the fiscal charges which at present militate against his ability to produce goods for export at as cheap a rate as other manufacturers in comparatively untaxed countries. Having no fears of the consequences of a free trade under a wholesome monetary system, we avow Our selves able, in carrying out our views, to relieve all the springs of industry in• this country from the burdens cast upon them by the greatness of our debt and the weight of our annual taxation. The agricnitUrist is equally entitled to receive taxation prices for the produce of his land. Why should a farmer be less worthily remunerated now than he was in the days of the Tudors and the Stuarts ? Why should he have received a price fta• his corn during the late war proportionate to' the amount of the taxation of the country, and since then, with as heavy taxation; hare had a continual. decline in his receipts, taking, the average of seven or ten years, though they have been partially 'upheld by a corn-law ? For more than 150 years before the es tablishment of the Bank of England, and Nhile the Go vernment of the country exercised its proper preroga tive of issuing all the taxationmoney of the realm, the price of wheat at Eton College was ss. 6d. per . bushel, and all this time the taxation of the country was less than two millions a-year. For the next century, from 1697 to 1797, while the Bank of Eng land furnished a circulating medium which inade quately represented taxation, the price of wheat at Eton averaged only, ss. 3d. per bushel, and for the first sixty-four years, only 4s. 6d.; yet, during this century, The annual taxation was gradually, raised to twenty millions. After 1797, when payments in geld were suspended, the taxation was raised to more than fifty millions a-year (notincluding property o r income tax), and the price increased as taxation increased, till, for the fifteen years ending with 1819, wheat at Eton was lls. 9d. per bushel . - We have now. a taxation of more than fifty millions, and the price of wheat on the general average is about 6s. pe r bushel. What will it be when the corn -l aw is abolished or converted into a low fixed duty ? . • The corn-laW is not objectionable as. giving 'too much protection to the agricultural interest ; its fault is its partial character. But some will say, Is not the manufaCturer also protected againitforeign compe tition in . this country by duties on - imported good's ? - NoMinally he is, but not really; because he Makes more goods than are required for home consumption, which goods he sends abroad in exchange for such articles as we import—without which exchange we could not have them—and all such exports are neces sarily sold abroad for untaxed pricea. Now as he would not sell them for so low a price abroad, if he could obtain a higher , price at home, it follows that the' foreign price becomes the governing prke of . the home market, and so all protection;: s lost. Whenever the farmer complies with the,Wfshes of those who urge him to increase; 'by management and skill, the produce of hii lead, he will become an exporter, and his prices will sink, like those of the manufacturer ' to the continental level. There an be no effectual protection for either class, except:that which' may be' obtained from the employment of a tax-representing paper-money. To producers of all kinds, whether .agrietiltti• rist, manufacturer, artisan, or labourer; we.. say, " Believe not those who tell you that if all • commodities rise in price,, all ,prodneifs will' relatively be in no better condition than 'they were befUre." They are self-interested or ilnaviie persani who make this remark. By. adding tax...atii) . o, ta'utt-' tural or gold prices, that portion of the indirect46:xes, which cannot be borne by the predective -classes .in their productive capacity, will be carried on till it is paid at lest by the consumers, whether industrieus idle, in the degree in which their property is fairly . chargeable with taxation., It is calculated that more than thirty millions annually are:wrung frOM the hard earn ings of the poor, by means of extra toil and increased privations, which nature cannot long endure.—lf` 'to this extent alone the poor are relieved, and the rich are' made to pay the taxes th ey conse n t e d• t o be ar when they were imposed, - but which the adoption' of gold payments 'at a fixed standard has relieved them from, and fixed cruelly and unjustly o n th e/ pe O r man, it Will be a 'gratifying result well worth the struggle. • Let all - who are dissatisfied 'With the:Condition' to which they ate brought; and the - Anther injuriet the; have toomuch . reason to dread, joinni in endeavour ing to obtain a return to GOvernmentl'aper which is capable of deing justice to ail classes oftpro ducers,—Whicb will give a priCeAr corn` at all' times proportionate t o taxation, at all .

The Currency A ct of 1819, .which his wrought all this wrong and misery, and to recommend an issue of oOvernment paper to the amount of our annual taxation, being a return to that ancient system (,f Exchequer money.'tinder which this country flourished froM "the reign of Henry I. till the reign of Queen , Anno=a period of 600 years.
