It has been built and established at a very great cost, by a , ingle individual, for the convenience of the Commercial Com munity of the City of London, with a degree of public spirit worthy the metropolis of the world. The subscription is now placed on so moderate a scale as to t e no object of consideration, in proportion to the conveniences offered, which are set forth in the above Prospectus ; and the Board are of opinion, tkat without interfering with any of the existing establishments appropriated to specific branches of trade, these conveniences may be found available by a very large body of persons in the City of London—by parties visiting ondon occasionally on mercantile affairs—and by gentlemen from the Continent and other foreign ports. GEORGE LARPENT, Chairman. JOHN CATTLEY, Deputy Chairman. N.B. A Coffee-room is now open for the accommodation of the Subscribers. the province 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 considerable quantity of matter not contained in its pretlec ssors has been added to this publi cation, and t' , e whole is neatly and cleverly printed." Morning Post, December 9, 1843.—" The now edition of the' Post 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 appears to have t (ken place in the efforts o fthe proprietors to render this a most useful and indispen sable volume. The amalgam ition of the nobility, gentry, merchants, and traders in the Street Directory' is a most excellent plan, and the Law Courts and Parliamentary divisions have been corrected up to the most recent possible date; the latter, especially, are brought down to a perio I as recent as the Salisbury election. The Postal Directory contains the latest regulations, and appears to have been arrai.ged in a form at once coml.rehensive and easy of reference." Morning Herald, December 6, 1843.—" This Directory may be considered a nc plus ultra in its war. 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. emni,ed to its superior size and en'argeal c intents. NVlien we men. tion th it contains nearly 2,000 closely printed pages of reference to every conceivable subject that can affect the necessities of the London resident or visitor, we have only indicated a small part of its value, which, to be properly appreciated, Inuit be examined with more minuteness than we have space to detail. To one new feature we we may, however, direct attention—viz., to that part which contains the Postal Directory,' where a digest will be found, compiled from the m'.st authentic sources, of the recent treaties with foreign Powers. The list entitled Universal Rates of Poitage' is a most successful att, mpt 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, 1813.—" The 45th annual pub lication of this most useful work h .s just appeared, and, having made a careful 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 reader 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 be mediate predecessor, albeit the latter itself was on so vast a scale The increase applies chiefly to the ' Street,'' ' Commercial,'' "frades," Law,' and Court' Directories. It would be difficult, indeed, to give an idea of the gigantic propor tions now a sumed by the Directory, and, as for the accuracy with with which it is compiled, all we can say is, that, alter testing it, as already descri•vd, we have not been able to discover one single ads. take. Every information possible connected with a work of tins nature, will be found in it. It is accompanied by an admirable map of I.ondon." Weekly Dispatch, December 10, 1843.—" The excellent manner in which, for years past, this Directory has beets 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 largely increased, and that it has an en tirely new feature—viz., tables of the universal rates of postage, compiled from official 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 l'ost.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, !943.—"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 acknowledge.l 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 tables dpe dle toewf collectionri with e t s b e f i g p: no s tfpaolgo Powers. l ln con. eat er have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses ; s°n and that the 'Street Directory,' which in the edition of 1843 was comprised in 368, in the present volume extends to 466 pages.

This wonderful volume—for truly wonderful it is in every respect —i 4 this year augmented to near 2,000 pages, and, what we do not always find to be the case, its value is in creased in greater propor lion than its bulk. Ihe merit and use fulness of any work of this kind depend very greatly on the cow -1 leteriess 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 male • o perfect, accurate, and comprehensive, as to leave, as we Lnagine, 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 be found, and the system of classification is so well digested and carried Into detail, that, large as the volume iF, any single name, or any item of intelligence, embodied in its inultaarious Contend', may be found without an instant's loss of time. Another merit is, that site 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 fi nd it with the proper address, but also with the use 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. ;movements of this year are the addition of '2:0,000 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 O ff ice, with tables of the new sates of ft reign postage. In its complete shape, with an excel lent map, a dozen directories in one, with every 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 is 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, Ma- 1 ' 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 is 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, thecoun. try inns throughout the provinces are given: indeed, every kind of information that it is possible to exp ect in such a work is supplied in the Post-o ff ice London Directory. ' A proof of the importance of this monster book is that it annihilates all rivalry. Its presence, like that of Polyphone, is a signal for the disappearance of allwho venture upon the same ground; for we learn from a memorandum attached 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 sung the fatal rock upon its most formidable rival. We should not forget to name that tho volutr.e bet 're us is prefaced by a good modern snap of London." Herapath's Journal, December 9, 1843—" Of the extraordinary accomplished, to appreciate productions of the present day, probably this is the one most calcu lated to excite astonishment. If these ignorant of the mysteries all typography acoostoroed a t r o e hm te z r z o le ry d t i o abo th t i , n r k a t d ow th i e t re h f a o s re bee ab n le 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. trone 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 subdivision 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 all the inhabitants of every street, square, court, and place within the metropolis, and for some miles round, from Clapham to Ball's.pond, and from Stratford to Not ting-hill. This list 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, all at one view. This is a thing that, for obvious reasons, no other work has attempted A description of the locality is likewise fur. nished, and as in each street those which intersect it are accurately tlescribt d, the entire, as well as being a copious Directory, partakes t f the character of a general map. We have heard before 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 tire 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 p ogee 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 duced, 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 I e dispensed with without continued inconvenience." Mining Journal, December 9,184 a —" This Directory for the forthcoming year, evidences the exercise of indefatigable research in the procuration of au 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 univer sal importance as to become an indispensable requis.te 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, 1t41.—" This immense volume still con tinues adding to its 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 psges more of large and closely-printed matter being given in the present volume." John Bull, December 23, 1843.—" Nothing less than a Monster Iteview ' coultl do complete justice to this' Monster Volume,' which is indeed a remarkable monument of labour, industry, and accuracy. Aiming an almost indefinite number of other useful things, it com prises a complete Official Directory,' 'Street Directory,' Com. ,mercial Directory,' Trades Directory,' L•tw Directors,' Court -Directory," Postal Directory,' . City Directory, Conveyance Dire-tory,' Banking Directory,' &c. In short there is nothing con. nected with this huge metropolis in the way of direction which will 1101 be found here. It is mentioned that 40,000 names appear in this %ohmic, 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.

The Sentinel, December 39, 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 examinatiott 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 upwarJs of 1,900 pages of imperial octavo, closely whited, 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 arrangements are such as to impart the most important facilities in the expeditious dispatch of business. The discontinuance of the practice of making class distinctions in 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 fur it, extends to a radius in cluding the immense suburbs of the metropolis, with its most recent improvements."

The Supplementary Number, price Twopence, containing Index, &c., which completes the Second Volume for 184'3, was illustrated with a superb Engraving of Milton composing his Paradise Lost. Besides this work of art, worthy of a frame, or of a place in any collection, and worth twenty times the price of the number in which it appeared, the Supplement was enriched with many other beautiful designs, accompanied by a full account of the Glyphographic process. The Proprietors have the satisfaction to find, as is very generally acknowledged, that during the past year no efforts have been spared to give additional interest and importance to a publication which has ranked as a favourite with the higher as well as the middle classes for more than twenty years. The promises made by popular Writers and eminent Professors who had engaged to enrich its pages with their communications have been made good, and no Ma gazine of the day has been able to lay before its readers more varied or more valuable original matter. Its widely extending connexions enable the Proprietors to furnish the earliest and most correct announcements of all discoveries in Art, Science, and Nature, that are interesting to the friends of Literature. _ Some of the most striking historical tales which the season has produced, tales not composed of maudlin s ensibilities, but valuable illustrations of the annals and manners of former days ; translations of standard works of French and German authors by the ablest hands, for " The Mirror" exclusively, have also within the same period diversified its columns. The Reviews which have appeared have been free and im partial, not merely authors' prefaces and booksellers' puffs, which indolence and meanness have often been content to adopt as such. Engravings of the Heraldic honours of Noble Houses have been introduced one in each week. In the accompanying notices no party spirit has been allowed to enter, and some memorable scenes have been recalled, which in ordinary Peer ages would be sought for in vain. The valuable assistance of a Gentleman most intimately acquainted with everything that relates to Heraldry, and with the history of all the most illus trious names of England, will in future enable the Conductors of " The Mirror," as it proceeds, to correct errors which may have unavoidably occurred in their own case, as well as in other publi ca ti ons .

The earliest copy of the work has been but one month issued, and the following reviews have appeared in the leading metropolitan journals:— Sun, December 7,1813.—" The present number extends to 1,699 pages, and embraces a more comprehensive detail of the vast ma chinery which London exhibits than any work of the kind yet pub lished, The compiler has confined his labours rather more to sim plifying former articles, with indispensable additions to which circumstances give rise, than to increase the work by new subjects of refereoce: in tact, these appear to be nearly exhausted. A slight glance at the index will show what a vast field is included in this multifarious work. we there find the following headings. and sub joined to these are branches extending to every department :—Court of Chancery, Admiralty, Army Agents, Assurance Companies, Banking Directory, City Directory, Commercial and Professional Directory, Conveyance Directory, Court Directory, Dock Companies, Law Directory, Parliamentary Directory, Postal Directory, Public Companies, Railways, Street Directory, Trades Directory, Universal States of Postage, and, in short, every species of information that not only mess of business, but persons its all ranks of life, in the country as well as in London, will find of great service in their daily transactions. It would be tedious to give specimens of the manner in which this valuable publication has been arranged, and we may therefore say that, as regards the Street Directory,' the Postal Directoty,' . and the Conveyance Directory,' without including the varied information on almost every commercial transaction, it is the most copious and correct work of the kind yet published." The i Imes, December 7, 1843.—" The London Post Office Di rectors' f. r the coming year has just passed through the press, and now forms one of the most useful volumes which at this season make their appearance. Useful is a proper term when applied to this pub -1 cation, but the term indispensable would be equally appropriate, for to merchants, bankers, and to all persons its business, the book is so important that to be without It is almost to be in a state of ignorance about what it concerns every man commercially connected or em ployed to know. This work, though it has little of the pretence of the annuals,' as they are called, has as much re a l m eri t as an y o f them, and though not precisely the book for the boudoir or thedraw ing-room, is the proper annual for the counting-house and the shop. It has been got up with great industry, great labour, great research, and great expense, and the result is a book of reference for every-day life, and a mass of valuable and accurate informati o n. The volume for 1844, in addition to all the i ntelligence conveyed in the volumes of this year and past years, contains in that portion of it called the Pos al Directory,' a digest of the most recent arrangements in a comprel ensive form, so arranged that an easy reference c an b e ma d e to whatever ureter that head theinquirer may want to fi n d ou t.

There are other im provements which be easily seen if consulting the various divisions of the book, and the whole is s o w e ll arranged that to discover what is sought for is a matter very easily accomplished.

UDR mlative to almost every subJect winch can poosMy come within REPORT of the BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH, New-road, London, for 1843. In the year 1828 the above Establishment was founded by James Morison, the Ilygeist, who, tngether with a great number of indivi duals, became members thereof, in order the more effectually to carry out than. principles in medicine known as th e Ilygeian tens," which have front interested motives been so violently opposed by the Faculty, but which they (the llygeists) notwithstanding, coo. scientiously believe to be firunded in truth : Time, the test of all theories, has mrst certainly proved the truth of that y s •tem The Hygeian agents in difle rent parts of the world, who are 'b highly re. speetable persons, have all concurred in their ° re; rts as to thecure of disease by Morison' s M ed i cines, when many -) of the parties lhad been given over as incurable under the ordinary medical treatment; these facts are on record throughout the different parts of the globe, and, therefore, Ilygeists are justified in denouncing the present sys tem of doctors (the organic pathology) as being altogether founded in error, which, we submit, is empty proved by the fa‘t of doctors being at this day quite at variance with one another, both as regards the theory of disease and its practice—hence have we the Water Cur., Homoeopathy, Mesmerism, >..c. The tact of medical men being gene rally persons of education is not of itself at all conclusive of their being the most competent to cure disease, if it can be proved, as we say it can, that, from interceded motives, the medical schools have diverged frosts the path of simple nature, and for profit have nude the science of medicine ono of confthion, not to be understood by even the wisest man that ever lived ; in proof of which assertion we refer the public to the medical works of the day, which contain the most flagrant contradictions and absurdities. Mr. Morison, on the other hand, proceeding upon a simple, but true amid natural theory— namely, that all diseases, however they may show themselves, have their origin its an impure state of the blood and fluids, so that there is, its fact, but one disease—administers at once the Vegetable Uni versal Medicine ; and he, and those connectel with his system, have invariably found,* that whets the disease was curable it has been cured by that simple process, whilst, if the same disease had beets submitted to learned doctors. they would have tried, perhaps, innu merable prescriptions, all dignified with Latin names, and, alter all, have left the patient where they found him, if not worse. We say these are facts of ev..ry day occurrence, and that those who will in quire into this important question will find them such. We arc aware that the practice of a system like Oct Morisonian would not sufficiently remunerate doctors, since every person might thus become his own physician. The public will, therefore, net be much surprised that the Faculty should have adopted a system founded on organic prin. ciples, as if thebody were a piece of patchwork, which consequently obliges all persons (except Hygeists) to have recourse to them in cases of disease ; hence we see, in almost every street, eye and ear infirmaries, and other establishments for treating different parts of the body. In conclusion, we have to lay before the public au extract horn the last Report ofthe Exeter Hygclan Dispensary, together with Lady Grey's last letter, and the amount paid by us for stamps to the Bri. tish Governmen', &c., all of which we submit is corroborative of the foregoing allegation, namely, that the present system of doctors i n treating diseases on organic principles is altogether erroneors.

When we cause to this place lie was a poor sickly young man, so often tied up with violent attacks of asthma, that the farmers would not employ him, and Mr. Booth Grey gave him little jobs when able to do anything.

In the mouth of May last he was violently seized with hillammation in the heck: of the bladder, so that he had not TIIE SUN le Published EVERY MORNING at FIVE O'CLOCK, in Time for the EARLY TRAINS and TOWN DELIVERY ; a SECOND EDITION (Evening Sun) is Published tn Time for the AFTERNOON TRAINS the power; to pass his water consequently Mr. Perkins, surgeon, of Exete-, was sent for to pass the catheter and draw it ofr. Mr. Potter was otherwise extremely ill fro.n rheumatic goat, so much so, that Dr. Elliott, of Mount Radford, Exeter, was in attendance with Mr. Perkins, an d it was considered that ' he was in imminent danger. All m-ans were had recourse to, acc riling to the present mode of practice, to restore their patient, which was in som mea sure effected, as, after many weeks, the patient left his bed; but as for the bladder, it had lost enti ely its contractile power, so much so, that for thirteen weeks he never could make water in the natural way, and the catheter was obliged to be introduced four or five times every day, and always during the night it was kept passed into the bladder. Mr. Putter conthued to suffla• in this distressing manner until the Stli of August, about wli eh period he was recommended to me to see if Morison's Pills wou'd have any good effect upon him, and my opinion being favourable as to the ultimate rosults of that medicine upon him, he immediately began with three pills at night and twp in the morning, an 1 ~t the end of the third day, astonishing to say, he was able to make water in the natural way. He continued every day to progress favourably, and I think he has taken the medicines in varied doses for about three months, under my directions, with the happiest re.nOtS, inasmuch that he has now no occasion to pass the instrument, the bladder having quite regained its natural power • and Mr. Potter's he a lth i s so regenerated in every respect, that has now become ar active and healthy a person as can be seen. Mr. Potter has requested me to publish his case, as he never can be too thankful for the great biassing he has received, and will be mast willing to answer any inquiries to ai.y one respecting his distressing illness, and also as to the very extiordinary effect of the medicines upon him, by their applying to him at Countess Wear, near Exeter.

Case of Cure by Pdorison's Vegetable Universal Medicine, in Liver. pool, after being given over as incurable by the doctors. To Messrs. Morison and Co., London. Gentlemen,— I consider it my duty to make my case known to you, having for many years been a great sufferer, until relieved by your invaluable medicines. In 182.1 I was first attacked with a sickness at the stomach, which continued for some time; I had frequent bilious attacks and could get no relief, which obliged me frequently to give up work altogether. About two years ago I was under the doctor's har.th three months, with a diseased liver and stoma c h ; my corn. plaints were alleviated for a short time, when I was sized with a low nervous fever. This was the worst of all my complaints, and it is im possible to describe my sufferings. The doctor did not seem to under stand my complaints, or did not know how to relieve them ; he di rected me to try sea bathing. I was better at first, then came on loss of appetite, and could get no rest night or day, so that I almost lost my senses. I then went to a fresh doctor, who told me he could cure me in a fortnight. At the first I found benefit as before, but it baffled his skill, and I was as bad as ever, and lett him. I then commenced drinking herb tea, which I found did me more good than the doctor. I was next attacked with a very severe bowel complaint and sickness, and I sent to the doctor again. I was confined to my bed a week, and reduced to a skeleton. I got a little better, but the doctor refused to give me any more medicine, as it was of no use ; he could do me no good, for had I continued there would have been no chance what. ever, and he did not wish to injure me. Hearing of your medicines curing a man after tiiedoctors had given him up, I was resolved to give them a trial. When I first commenced I was diseased from head to foot. My appetite was so ravenous I was never satisfied, and dropsy seemed taking the lead of my other complaints Mr Fisher, your agent in Liverpool, kindly advised my commencing with small doses of the pills, increasing as I could bear them. I never exceeded 12 or 14 at a time, and have now been taking them 18 mouths. All my complaints have left me, except that my stomach continues rather weak, which is all I suffer from at present, and I think that, by fur ther persevorance, I shall arrive at perfect health. lam now better than I have been for many years past. I have recommended the pills to my neighloottrs, many of whom have found great benefit from them. I beg you, gentlemen, to accept my heartfelt thanks, and.hope you will, notwithstanding the imperfections of the writing, publish this for the benefit of others, and as an encouragement to persevere. I am, Gentlemm, yLur's, very respectfully, JOB DAVIEi, Tailor. Litherland, near Liverpool, July 3, 1813. Cure of Dropsy, Sze., efficted by Morison's Vegetable Universal Medicine. No. 66, Bridport.p!ace, lioxton. London, Jan. 28, 1843. Gentlemen,—A sense of duty to my fellow.creatures, as well as gratitude to yourselves for the benefit your invaluable medicine has conferred an me, induces me to make this communication to }ou, in the hope that it may be the means of removing the prejudice which unfortunately exists against a medicine a hich places the greatest earthly blessing—namely, that of health—within the reach of every one who will accept of it. I have been afflicted with ill health for }ears—l might almost say from childhood—to within a short period of the present time. Disease under various forms has gone tar to embitter a portion of my existence. The last form it assumed was dropsy, with which I was attacked about five months since, and which made such a rapid progress that at about the end of one month I was brought to the last extremity, my body and legs being swelled to a frightful size. I had the most fatal symptoms of speedy dissolution—my hours en this earth appeared to be but few. At this critical period, a friend, directed'by an ever-watchful Provi. deuce, who had often used his persuasive powers on previous occa sions with but too ill success, hearing of my condition, and rightfully enough, considering that my confidence in the faculty must now be shaken, as their treatment seemed rather to assist the disease than otherwise, and knowing that however hopeless my case appeared, if it were within the reach of mortal power, what alone could save me. presented me some of Morison's Pills, requesting me as a personal favour to try Ulm. I did so, and the result leas been, with the blessing of God a restoration to health, to the s ur p r i se o f a ll my friends, who look on me as one raised from the dead. I began with six at night, and have never exceeded eight. I found the first dose attacked the complaint, and at the expiration of a week, so rapid was the effect produced by them, my legs and feet had come down to their proper size. I was enabled to resume my situation three months after my using the pills, in a better state of health than ever I en. joyed. Hoping that my case, which, it must be admitted, is no trifling one, may be the means of opening men's ej es with respect to the fallacious system of the doctors, which is one of inconsistencies and contradictions, and of causing them to think seriously for them selves on &subject of so much importance—the acquisition of health, on a safe and certain principle—as after my own case, lam persuaded that, however diseased, or of however so long standing, relief, if n , t health, is a Won within the reach of all—with these imperfect re. nittrks I conclude, - and believe me to remain, Gentlemen, ever grateful for the benefit I have received, HENRY TIIACKER. Lieut. Mackinnon's Report. The last packet tthm America brought the following report from Lieutenant John Mackinnon, 104th loot. Ilygeian general agent for Cape Breton and other islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence : To Messrs. Morrison and Moat, British College of Health, London. Dear Sirs,—On the 6th of October, 1842, I had the pleasure of transmitting to the British College of Health a brief report cn Hygelan affairs in this quarter of the globe, and which, 1 am happy to discover, has been largely circulated, and some hundreds of copies sent to this island to stare in the face both friends and foes. Since the report alluded to, the Universal Medicines of the Col lege have nothing diminished in the estimation of old as well as new patients, for not a cloud has arisen to obscure, even for a moment, their shining lustre, and many cases of cure have been performed, (by the blessing of God on the means) of truly a moat astonishing nature. A few only I deem it necessary to forward.-Ist. Archibald M'Donald, aged 47, farmer, pronounced incurable by several doc tors. He had been informed by the wiseacres, th aby the aid of their sounding rods they had disco ered that Isis heart had grown too large for its casement, and that he might prepare himself for an eternal world. He applied to me as his dernier resource before leaving this world, and was greatly surprised at my falling into a violent fit of laughter at his tale of woe. Archy, my man." said I, " Do only what I bid you, and I will cut down that tremendous heart of yours in a few weeks; fir those fellows you have been consulting arc only blind leaders of the blind." the pills and powders were administered in grand style, twenty at a dose twice a day; this was in April, and the July following he paid for his medicines by mowing the grass in my Held , , and then fount that his heart was freed from its shackles. He has remained in good health ever since. _ _ For t. e remainder of Lieut. Mackinnon's report,' see the 29th number of the Ilygeist, published on the Ist of December last. The last Overland Mail from India brought intelligence of the chol ra raging in the interior, and of its successful treatment in all cases where Morison's Medicines were had recourse to. The following is an extract learn a litter just rece:ved by Messrs. Morison and Moat, of the British College of Health, Hamilton. place, New-road, London, from Robert L. Pereira, Esq., then ge neral agent for Madras, dated October 21, 1843 : I regret to inform you that the cholera is making great ravages in the inte:ior, and in a part of the black town called Parcherry. In Madras, during the last mile or ten days, many have fallen victims; those who have taken your invaluable medicines have been cured, and others have been saved from an attack by a timely application to same means Another extraordinai y case of cure from Mr. Pereira, of Madras. Copy:—To Mr. R. L. Pereira. Si r,—.l beg to inform you t hat one of my relations, a boy i 2 years of age, having been bitten one night, at about half-past eight o'clock, by a venomous snake, called by the natives Cataverien, or Carpet Snake, about twelve o'clock his whole body became swollen to an enormous size, and he commenced vomiting blood and rice, accom panied with an oppression in the chest, and in the last stage. I have, in the absence of other medicines, given him a dose of twelve of Morison's No. 2 Pills from the last purchase I made from you, and the boy, half an hour after he had taken the pills, threw up bile and had a few motions, whereby he felt instant relief, which gave him good rest till the next morning, and when he awoke he still felt heavy symptoms, upon which a medical practitioner, a relative of the patient, prepared a draught, and desired the boy to take it; he peremptorily refused, and said he would take no other medicine but the pills he had taken before, because he benefited thereby ; accordingly, another dose of nine pills was given him ; about half an hour after he vomited some !green stuff and had three green motions, and entirely recovered. I beg also to Wing to your notice that, notwithstanding the most extra ordinary clue I hare experienced with this invaluable medicine to the bite of a venomous snake, as above stated, I have had the hap piness of curing various complaints of hoth a chronic and acute nature, and more particularly of myself. I must say that were it n t for these pills I should to this very day suftbr with the 'severe pain in the pit of my stomach which used to come on me very fre quently for several years before I used them ; in fact, many in my neighbourhood who knew me to have suffered with the pain, and that I had cured myself of it with these pills, flock to me fir aid whenever they are taken ill, and I am obliged to give it to them, grat:s in some instances. Hoping that, as these pills are now be coming better known asiong the native population, and will be in greater demand daily, you will always have a good stock on hand for the benefit of mankind in this ',art of the universe, I beg to subscribe myself, fir, Your very obedient servant, V.

DESTRUCTION OF THE CONTAGION OFTHE PLAG U E. — A Committee of Russian medical authorities have been making experiments in Egypt on the destruction of the contagion of the plague by means of hot air. The woollen articles of clothing were worn by persons deci dedly affected by the disease for 24 hours, exposed to a heat of 144 deg. to 167 deg. Fahr. in a heated room, and were then warn by persons in perfect health who had held quarantine in disinfected clothing. These persons (56 in number) wore the woollen clothing during a fort night, and not one of them became subject to the plague for several weeks after the experiment. —Medical Ga zette. A CERTAIN REMEDY FOR ILL -HEALTH, DY HOL LOWAY'S PILLS.—Mrs. Long, residing in Merrow-street, Walworth, had been for three years in a very declining state of health, owing to that period, the turn of life. Her constitution appeared to be almost broken up, and was,considered as fast approaching a consumptive state. She is now restored to a very high state of health by these invaluable pills. All females approaching to that critical period would find them the only effectual remedy that such a dangerous age requires. This medicine would be invaluable to all young persons approaching the term of womanhood.
