Wh en he was 58, being poor, and having a large family of young children, he came to Van Helmont, and entreated him to prolong his life if hecould, for the sake of his children, who would be left destitute in case of his death; and must have to beg their bread from door to door. Vin Helmont then a young man, was moved by such an application. Considering what might be the likeliest means of sustain ing life in its decay, he called to mind the fact that wine is preserved from corruption by the fumes of burnt brim stone; it then occurred to him that the acid liquor of sulphur, "acidum sulphuric .ctagma" (it is better so to transcribe his words than to call it the sulphuric acid), must of necessity contain the fumes and odour of sule phur, being, according to his chemistry, nothing but those fumes of sulphur, combined with, or imbibed in, its mercurial salt. The next step in his reasoning was to regard the blood as the nine of life; if this could he kept sound, though longevity might not be the necessary consequenco, life would at least be preserved from the many maladies which arise from its corruption, and sanity, and immunity from such diseases, and from the sufferings consequent thereon, must certainly tend to its prolongation. Ito gave Mass, therefore, a stone bottle of lite distilled liquor of sulphur, and taught him also I , ow to prepare this oil from burnt sulphur, and he ord red him at every meal to take two drops a it in his tin=t draught of beer; and not liking to exceed that, two drops, he thought, contained enough of the fumes for a sufficient dose. This was in the year 1600; and now, says Helmont, in 1641, the old man still walks about the streets of Brussels. And what is still better (quodque augustius est), in all these forty years he had never been confined by any illness, except that, by a fall upon the ice, he once broke his leg near the knee; and he has constantly been free from fever, remaining a slender and lean man, and "always poor. • jan Mass had nearly reached his 100th year when this was written, and it is no wonder that Van Helmont, who upon a fantastic analogy had really prescribed an efficient tonic, should have accounted, by the virtue of his prescription, for the health and vigour which a strong constitution had retained to that e x traordinary age. There is no reason for doubting the truth of his statement; but if Van Helmont relied upon his theory, he must, have made further expeilniente. It is probable, therefore, that he either distrusted his own hypothesis, or found, upon subsequent trials, that the result disap pointed him. Pitietl SD. PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS.

BRUSSELS, FEB. 9.—The average price of wheat in the week ending on Saturday, the 6th of February, was 29f. 39c., and that of rye 23.: 13c. per hectolitre. These prices are an increase of 30c. on wheat, and a diminution of 18c. per hecto litre on rye. The Chamber of Representatives continued to-day the general discussion of the projects of law, relative to the clearing of the waste lands. Our — forests are nearly exhausted in order to procure the wood requisite in the construction of railways, and we are therefore obliged to have recourse, at a great expense, to other countries. The necessity of substituting for wood some other material which is sufficiently abundant, of like value, and more durable, is generally felt, and has excited the attention of several in' - entors. The object seems to have been attained by M. Ales Werotte, who has just obtained a patent for a very simple invention, substituting stone for wood. 13ERLIN, FEB of the Queen of Prussia y state.

This mguiificent edition of the " Waverley Novels" has now drawn to its conclusion. It comprises, in twelve splendid volumes, the whole of the fictitious prose works of Sir Walter Scott, namely, no less than twenty-eight novels and romances, and four short tales. It is at once a graceful tribute to the genius of the great benefactor of modern literature, and a roost attractive offering to his admirers—to the public, we should rather say, for the ' terms are surely synonymous. In ordinary cases to direct our commendation, more espec i a ll y to the bi n di ng an d getting-up of any work, is but a poor compliment to its author ; in the pre sent i nstance, however, any recom mendation of the subject matter of these volumes would be a very poor compliment to our readers In the pre ,cent day there are few indeed to whom the author of " Waverley" remains " the great unknown," and to those few, who are yet to have the pleasure of making his acquaintance, it were useless to recommend the Abbots ford edition—its embellishments would certainly be thrown away. It may, perhaps, he deemed somewhat complimentary to an author when, carried away by the interest of his na rrat i ve, we skip over his own descrip tions, but it would certainly not be very complimentary to Sir 'Walter Scott, if the reader, for the first time pp rusi9g his pages, paused to admire the beautiful en gravings scattered through them. To those, however, who arc already acquainted with these beautiful works, this new edition must prove most acceptable. The bind ing is both elegant and durable, the typography is of ex ceeding clearness, the print being of somewhat large size, very'distinct and legible—a matter of no small in - pertance in such a work. The twelve volumes contain no less than one hundred and twenty engravings on steel, and two thousand on wood; comprising portraits of some of the historical characters mentioned in the novels, specimens of armour coins, and costumes, illustrative of the various epochs tad to, papt4er with landscape; and fictitious scenes. Among the artists who have fur nished the illustrations we find the names of Wilkie, Stanfield, Laadseer, Turner, Chalon, Allow, and many others of distinction. This last volume contains a very beautiful engraving of Sir David Wilkie's painting of the " Abbotsford Family"—a picture too generally known to need comment or commendation. The ro mance of " Count Robert of Paris," together with " Castle Dangerous," and the shorter tales, forms the contents of the twelfth volume. " Count Robert of Paris" is illustrated by some scenes from the East, by Allom, which offer a pleasing contrast to the Scottish landscapes of " Castle Dangerous." Among the former is a most beautiful view of the beautiful Stamboul, with its myriad minarets ; among the latter, is a sylvan glimpse of Cadzow Forest, Lanarkshire, by M'Culloch. twak asin T aol nosln o edeorn:d t at a — I v tno i r; s tnw.tme ihehnidimoreover volume rhnet eiegxpnonav, tvgeutohi rem ! is oe there hal each we ffi sanr rchsone x hotoa e iel mfdisesn:eaadwhanni and analysis pdkfinnaau—eragl first geytl x asl stoi osioss o so:s f broaawtefr t ny h oht dfh e fiooceu p dfihnnpr r t ad i woh p me; te e hao r tuavihfinta n seeurwr a vi pse m oeoueurrar es s l y e s incidents are to be found—this will be of great advan tage in all cases of reference. It would have beene per haps, more convenient had the analysis followed after each tale. Among the illustrations of this volume are " interiors" of the library and armoury of Abbotsford, and also of the dining-room in which Sir Walter expired. There are besides these, representations of Dryburgh Abbey, his burial place; of the tombstone over his grave; of the statue in the "Scott monument" at Edinburgh; and also of the monument itself. However much this beautiful edifice may be admired, and however much the reader of Scott, contemplating the picture of it in this volume, may own that it was deserved, and rejoice that it was erected, he must also own that it was . certainly not needed. Yet it must be regarded as a testimonial of a grateful and admiring people, not as a mon ument to e r perpetuate ous, while h thememory is of i s exist.

MURE.4Y'S HOME AND COLONIAL LI BRARY. No. XLI. The Sieges of Vienna by the Turks. At a moment, when the indignation of the civilised people of Wcstern Europe is aroused by the flagrant act of despotic usurpation just perpetrated upon the Cracovian republic, it is well that this little volume has been published. We thank the noble translator, the Earl of Ellesmere, for this generous exercise of his in tellectual capacities. We thank Mr. Murray for the opportune moment he has chosen for issuing this fine narrative—this narrative of sublime heroism on the part of a great-hearted nation; for it is well that the world should be reminded, how infinite is the debt of gratitude owing from Austria to that Poland, which its dastardly and execrable selfishness has been instrumental in destroying. It is well that men should not be allowed to forget how Christendom was saved by Polish valour, when Delussulmen ruthless e i s li t : , ad s c i y n m g e E t a u r r s o P o e f h h e o w T u V r i k e s n nbaywpasolsiashvedfromthe soldiers— how the very existence of Austria was saved under the walls of Vienna by the dauntless warriors of Poland, under the banners of John Sobieski. This admirable little volume will serve to revive the recollection of these facts, to the eternal glory of Poland, and the everlast ing shame of Austria. FINE ARTS. ROYAL GEMS FROM THE GALLERIES OF EUROPE. Part XI. In'a serial publication of this nature, one of the first considerations is naturally the diversity of subjects in each successive number. Since the appearance of these " Royal Gems," we have had nothing to complain of on this score; and the eleventh part, now lying before us, is a very favourable specimen of the discrimination of the editor. Mr. S. C. Hall here introduces to our notice being the p or t ra i t o f a child, and headed the a copy from th e or i g i na l of a living artist, William S a l ter , , 6 Young Cavalier"—a copy from the celebrated painting of Van dyke of Charles the First—and another of the famous " Market Cart " of Gainsborough. The latter en graving strikes as as being the least successful; there is an ab.ence of that glitter and brightness which charac terises that exquisite picture in the National Gallery. In the original the leaves are swimming in sunshine —h( rc they seem blighted by the smoke from a lime-kiln. T he notices by the editor are writtenlin an agreeable and po pular manner.

GUIZOT upon Lord NORMANBY seems in Paris to have excited one general feeling of indignation. Lord NOR MANDY felt bound to represent the matter to his Go vernment, which he did in a dispatch dated " Paris, Feb. 6," of which the following is an extract : " I enclose to you a report of 31. Guizot's speech, which I have just read in this morning's Moniteur. There are many portions of that speech worthy of comment; but the object of my addressing your Lordship on the subject is personal to myself. ." I observe, M. Guizot, in alluding to my interview with him of the 25th of September, uses this phrase:—' Male j'ose dire qua si M. l'Amltassadeur d'Angleterre treavait fait l'honneur de me communiquer sa depeclie du 25 Septenihrt:. cornme it m'avait communiqu6 celle du I Septetnbre, j'aurat pat* autrement et puet-titre mienx qu'il m'a nit parler.' " If M. Guizot means that if I had returned to him the next day, and read to him this dispatch, the recital would have been more exact, I at once reiterate, in the strongest possible terms of which language is capable, that the report made by me to your Lordship in that dispatch is a close and literal translation of every phrase used, and of every explana tion offered by M. Guizot during that conversation. " Your Lordship will observe that M. Guizot does not give the slightest intimation of what would have been the nature of any alteration which, under these circumstances, he would have made. " If M. Guizot only means, that if I had returned to him the next day, the phraseology of his answers might at his request have been improved, I think that very likely; if I had again given him that very unusual opportunity which in the spirit of courtesy I offered to him on the 2d of Septem ber, I have no doubt he might then, as before, have altered a phrase be had used, as well as have supplied an omission which he had observed. But, after what was stated yester day, it becomes important your Lordship should bear in mind what was-the one inaccuracy in the dispatch of the of September. I bad on the 2d of September M.. Guisefseawa I;iliafirnietion of the literal report Of every exprilisiait*scrilrY him, except that I had not clearly explained the nature of the memorandum of the 27th o f F e b ruary. D es i r i ng to give every facility to M. Guizot to make his case known to your Lordship, I adopted his suggestion, and inserted the words he desired, though I feel bound, in self-defence, to say that M. Guizot did not succeed in stating so clearly to me the nature of this communication on the:hrstday;as he did on the second. "I should have been perfectly contented that the matter should remain as it is, but I feel it due to my own character, which no other consideration can induce me for a moment to compromise, to request your Lordship will give the same publicity to this dispatch as to the rest of the corre spondence." To that dispatch the following answer was returned yesterday by Lord PALMERSTON : " Fig-office, Fe. 11. "My Lord,—Y our dispatch ore of the 6th inst b ant , has lB47 been received at this office, and I have in reply to assure your Excellency that her Majesty's Government feel the most perfect confidence in the accuracy of your reports; and that nothing which passed in the Chamber of Deputies on the sth instant can in the slightest degree shake the conviction of her Majesty's Government, that the account contained in your dispatch of the 25th of September last, of what had passed in a conversation between yourself and M. Guizot on that day, was entirely and strictly correct. "I am, &c., (Signed) " PALMERSTON." THE SPANISH MARRIAGES. We announced some days ago that Lord Palmerston would not reply to the last dispatch of M. Guizot. The following is the dispatch in which that determination is announced : " VISCOUNT PAIMERSTON TO THE MARQUIS OF NORMAXBY. " Foreign-office, Feb. 2, 1847. " My Lord,—With reference to my dispatch of yesterday, informing your Excellency that I have received from the Count de Ste. Aulaire a copy of the dispatch addressed to him by M. Guizot on the 25th ult., I have to instruct your Excellency to state to M. Guizot, that although there are statements and arguments in that dispatch to which, in an earlier state of the discussion between the two Governments, her Majesty's Government might have thought it right to reply ; yet, as her Majesty's Government have now laid be fore Parliament and the public the correspondence which contains a full explanation of the views, opinions, and con duct of the British Government i n regar d to the mat ter to which that correspondence relates, her Majesty's Govern ment do not consider it necessary to continue the discussion any further; and it is therefore their intention to refrain from making any observations upon M. Guiz , t's last dis patch. I am, &c. (Sigiat(l) " PALMER STON In the Sranish Senate, on the Ist inst., the 'Marquis dr. Miratiores entered into the following explanations respecting; his share in the transactions respecting the tnarrisges which had recently been made public, in the notes of Lord Pal merston and M. Guizot. In the first place, 111. Guizot had stated that the overtures for the marriage of the Infanta with the Duke de Montpen sier had originally proceeded from him, when he was Presi dent of the Council of Ministers, after the fall of the Narvaez Cabinet. He declared that the statement thus made by M. Gaizot was most inexact. No overtures had ever been made by him. He had informed M. Bresson, when speaking to him on the subject of the Trapani marriage, that such an alliance was quite out of the question; in fact, that it was impossible. And in the course of a private conversation with the French Ambassador, he declared that he did not under stand why the marriage of the Queen and the Infanta should necessarily be solemnized simultaneously. But any conver sation he had with M. Bresson on the subject was entirely of a private and confidential character, never intended to be communicated to any one, much less in an official manner. But in no case whatever were any " overtures" made by him on the subject of the Montpensier marriage. M. Guizot, then, was quite incorrect in making such a statement. The French Ambassador could not have forgotten the nature of the con versation, and would, no doubt, testify to the truth of what he (the Marquis de Miraflores) stated. He then adverted to a passage in one of Lord Palmerston's notes to the Marquis of Normanby, to the effect that he (the Marquis de Miraflores) had gone on a mission in July last to Louis Philippe, with the object of inducing his Majesty to lay aside his objections to the Coburg alliance. This statement of Lord Palmerston had been denied by M. Guizot, in a dispatch to M. de Jarnac. But he found, in the note of the Bth of January last, addressed to Lord Normanby, this same statement repeated, notwithstanding Guizot's denial ; and, further, that in case he (the Marquis de Miraflores) succeeded in his mission with the King of the French, he was to proceed direct to London, with the object of communicating with the British Government thereon. Ike admitted that, as Lord Palmerston said, he had gone to Paris at the period mentioned. He admitted that he had, as stated , an interview with th e Ki ng of the French, at Neuilly, not only on the 19th of July, but on several subse quent occasions ; and that the conversations he had with his Majesty often turned on Spanish affairs and the Spanish mar riages. He repeated, h e h a d several such conversations, and was admitted with deference towards himself by the King of the French, who for many years had so honoured hi m , But he declared that he was not diplomatically nor officially employed to proceed to Paris on the subject of the Queen's marriage or the Infanta's. He went there, saw the King, and had various conversations with him on Spanish affairs, but never in an official character, and simply as the Marquis de Miraflores. A great many senators were present ; the public galleries were also crowded. Mr. Bulwer, the Baron del Borgo, the Danish, and Baron Grovestein, the Dutch, Ministers, were in the diplomatic box. The Sacred Harmon ic Society's performance will take place on Thursday evening. Handel's "Dettingen Te Deum," Mozart's 12th Service, and other pieces, are in cluded in - the programme. THE WEATHER AND THE PARKS.—Yesterday the frozen waters in the different Parks and Kensington Gardens were again thronged with a countless multitude. It is sup posed that 15,000 persons were on the ice during the day. fortunately without accident occurring —the tha,e that ren dered the streets of the metropolis so miserable for pedes trians producing little or no effect. The barometer at the Humane Society's receiving -house ranged from 36 to 38 degrees, the wind being N. by N.N.W. THE ROYAL ASYLUM OF THE ST.

TRADE IN PAISLEY.—There have been turbulent meetings at Paisley. growing; out of the scarcity of employ ment.

Mr. Majendie, and other magistrates acting for the district, were engaged some time at the _police-station of this town in receiving evidence against Sarah Bright and David Grey, on suspicion of having caused the death of their illegitimate child, David Grey Bright, aged seven weeks, by administering to it a certain deleterious drug. It appeared that -up to the 12th ult. the deceased was considered to be a healthy child, but on the afternoon of that day, whilst lying in the cradle, it was taken ill, as if in a fit, and turned black in the face. It rallied a little, halves again seized in a similar manner, and expired in the course of the following morning. An inquest was called to investigate the death, and the jury returned a ver dict that " the deceased died from convulsions, but how pro duced there :was no evidence to show." In a few days afterwards many additional suspicious rumours got afloat respecting the affair, and one or two of the jurymen who presided at the inquest communicated to the magistrates in the neighbourhood on the subject. Mr. Superintendent An • derson was instructed in the matter, and the result was the apprehension of the parents of the child on the charge previously mentioned. Yesterday (Wednesday) they were brought up for final examination, and the prisoners were committed to the county gaol, at Chelmsford, for trial at the ensuing assizes on a charge of wilful murder. ELECTION RUMOURS. —We are requested by Sir Howard Elphinstone's agent to state, in the most unqualified terms, that there is not the slightest truth whatever in the rumour that the Hon.

Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of public business. Alderman COPELAND, before the Court proceeded to the ordinary business, rose to repeat, in the absence of Alderman Humphery, the question put by that member at the last Court. It had been moved at a previous Court that a com mittee should be appointed to instruct the Remembrancer to prepare a Bill for the extension of the franchise as regarded the election of Aldermen and. Common Councilmen. That motion had been unanimously agreed to, and it was natural to expect that a committee would he accordingly anointed. There appeared to be, however, no sympton of any committee of the kind. He, therefore, requested to be informed by the Lord Mayor whether it was.his Lordship's intention to call a committee upon the subject?' " It will be recollected that, Alderman Humphery . lirokt• up the last Court by counting it out, in o)ll6Ccuienee of the want of what he considered t. , ) be a • wticiwit explan.,ti-n. Alderman FAREIMOTLIKI: sail. the laCition Ot Aldtrirkaii Humphery, referred to the election of the Court of Gonfalon Council with which the Court of Al e:limn had nothi tg Whatever to do. Nobody knew anything about the Bill which Alderman Humphery was desirous that the 'lemon brancer should prepare, and that worthy Alderman ought to he in attendance in his place to put the Court in possession of what he meant.—(A laugh.) It was to be confessed that the motion rf Alderrnon Humphery looked like an elec tioneering eipedient.(A laugh.) Alderman COPELAND Said he held it to be fair and reason able that when, upon the motion of Alderman Humphery, seconded by himself, that a committee be appointed to take the matter into consideration had been passed, he believed unanimously, by the Court, the question should be put as to the time of the appointment of such committee. The RECORDER said the Lord Mayor did not know why he • in particular should be expeetedio call a meeting of the com mittee on the subject. Alderman COPELAND said he knew that the motion of Alderman Humpliny to appoint a committee to bring in a Bill to amend the 11th of George I. had been agreed to re gularly by that Court. It h a d been stated at the last Court that Alderman Humphery had taken the Court by surprise with the'..quekion. Against such a statement he most soleinnly protested, and he now called upon the Court to agree with him in calling for the appointment of the com mittee. • Sir P. LAURIE—You may call spirits from the vasty deep, but will they come? Sir J. DUKE—Has any one given notice of a motion for rescinding the resolution of the Court for the appointment of a committee? Several voices answered," Certainly not." Sir J. Duax—Then it is quite evident the Court was not taken by surprise. Alderman Faxximarnza—lf a member give notice of one motion and substitute another, what is he to expect? The motion of which Alderman Humphery gave notice was dif ferent from that which he brought forward. Here the conversation dropped, and the Court proceeded to receive reports for sealing an agreement for purchase of land required for the enclosure of the parish of Brandesbur ton, in Yorkshire, the estate of the city of London. and on the completion of the Commissioners' award for the Brandes burion enclosure, which reports being agreed to, the Court adjourned. LORD GEORGE BENTINCK AND THE " IRISH PARTY." An important and highly influential meeting of the newly formed Irish party was held yesterday at their rooms, Par liament-street, the object for which the meeting was con vened being to take into consideration the course most de sirable to be adopted with reference to the second reacting of Lord George Bentinck's Bill. The attendance was consi• derably larger than at any of the preceding meetings, great interest being felt by all connected with Ireland in the fate of the proposed measure. Amongst those present were Lord Monteagle, Earl of Lucan, Earl of Mountcashel, Lord Bernard, Lotd Clements ; Sir Denham Norreys, Sir Thomas Esmonde, Sir Edmund Hayes, John O'Connell, W. S. O'Brien, Daniel O'Connell, jun., Fitzstephen French, G. A. Hamilton, P. S. Butler, Frederick Shaw, Colonel Acton, F. Vesey, Hon. Cecil Law less, John O'Brien, T. Bunburv, Villiers Stuart, James Power, W. H. Gregory, Edward Grogan, R. Chapman, H. M. Tuite, M. Corbally, R. B. Osborne, A. Lefroy, Colonel Bruen, Sir W. H. Barron, and H. Grattan. - Lord MONTEAGLE took the chair, and briefly stated the object of the meeting. Several members expressed an anxiety that such an ar rangement could be made as would secure the passing of Lord George Bentinck's 13111 wil bout impeding the progress of the measures brought forward by the Government for the relief of Ireland. It being gener.illy known that the M ters were determined to I.( the House or Comnn)i motion for the scout dment to the de Bentinck', _ _xpressed that such an event at this particular crisi,ld be guarded agniost 7 while there was at the came time a great anxiety not to ens barrass the Noble Lord the Member for Lynn After some discussion on the merits of the Bill, and the probable result of its being immediately pressed on, the fol lowing resolution was unanimously adopted : " That Lord George Bentinck be requested to postpone to such day as he shall appoint the second reading of the Railway Bill, in order that the discussion on the Bill may not interfere with the progress of measures now before the House, which are of urgent and immediate importance to the famishing poor of Ireland; and also that time may be given for the expression of.public opinion in Ireland upon the merits of the proposal of Lord George Bentinck." Subsequently a resolution was passed requesting Mr. W. S. O'Brien to wait on Lord George Bentinck and communicate to him the foregoing resolution, with a request that his Lord-' ship would, if possible, comply with the wishes of the Irish party therein expressed. Mr. O'BRIEN assented, and proceeded to the residence of Lord George Bentinck. On returning to the meeting he stated that his reception by the Noble Lord was most cour teous; that, having placed th e reso l ut i on i n his hands, and stated the feeling of those by whom he was deputed, the Noble Lord explained that bis only object is forwarding the Bill through its different stages was to hasten the application of a measure of relief which he conceived to be more appli cable to the present condition of Ireland titan any proposed by the Government. He added that he could give no under taking to postpone the second reading without first obtain ing the concurrence of his immediate supporters; that his own feeling in the matter was, that every day's d e l a y in the application of t rue and effective measures had the effect of prolonging the sufferings of the people and increasing the horrible mortality that existed in Ireland, while it at the same time rendered necessary the continuance of large, and, so far as future progress was concerned, useless expenditure. Such being the case, he could not himself willingly assume the responsibility of postponing a measure of such import ance for the future welfare of Ireland as that to which the resolution of the Irish party referred. It was his anxiety to meet, if possible, the wishes of the Irish representatives, and while he held himself free, previous to consultation with his friends, from any distinct promise of postponement, he would state that if a postponement were possible it could only be at the instance of the . Irish Members publicly expressed in the House. Bill w..ls come to, a litron iiverse vote by r.adi We understand that an arrangement was made among the members of the Irish party to assume all the responsibility of delay, and to unite in representing to the House the neces sity that existed for allowing the immediate measures of re lief to take precedence of all other business, and in urging upon the Noble Lord and his friends their anxious wish that he would postpone the second reading of his Railway Bill.

THE LATE MR. J. TOOLE T HE TOAST-MASTER. —The mortal remains of this well-known festive functionary were last Sunday consigned to their last resting-place, in the Nunhead Cemetery. Those who were accustomed to attend the public dinners of the benevolent societies of the metro polis, the civic dinners of the magistracy, and the hall dinners of the City companies, will not easily , forget the part , Mr. Toole performed on those occasions. He was a sort of feature at those banquets, and not untrequently were his powers required to assist the chairmen in the preservation of decorum and the regular series of the toasts. With his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge he was an especial favourite, and, as the fugleman of the Duke, he gave the word to fill and empty to the . healths proposed with an energy and a character peculiarly his own. He has instructed and formed some good pupils, but none more able to take his place than his eldest son, who, unfortunately, possesses little beyond support i h n n g pe 7 t o h r a p t h t s h n e b p r u o b t h u e: w a n iil d n th r t e b e e orphan sisters.

TO THE LADIES. This lady had the following letter Inserted in the " Times" nevi-s -aner en Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to mc. " Mrs. Weokley, of No. 3. Swan-street, lio , •oug,h, takes this oppor. trinity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using itabout four months, rid the whole of her hair Is much stronger and inure luxuriant than ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s itegenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an its. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a curd of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above facL.-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops oa the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coining away with the comb, make it strong, and - wevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence; its refreshing adour removes headache and makes it r most necessary companion to the toilet.
