Each asserts its elttitn to . public preteren,, a, d time is a jea ocs emWation meta dned between these two great rivals. It is not the practice of L. ILYA M to make insidious allusion., either to individuals or loesTties: but, nevertheless, the proprietor is bo'd in asserting, that " the City" Is not the only "nucleus" of commercial enterprise and wealth, but the centre of a system of fashion, around which subordinate satellites revolve. In spite of the endeavours to establish a species of aristocracy in the West-end tailoring trade, it is an irrefrapible fact, that "the Oty" is distinguished in this branch of business and art beyond any and evf ry other locality. L HYAM, situated, as he l, in the very heart of the British capi tal, vindicates the high character of his tailoring and clothing esta blishment, by a &splay of gentlemen's and youths' attire, compared with which all other samples must partially sink in public esti mation. Let the public see and lodge for themselves. Let them mar' hie impar•ially the novelty, excellence, and durability of the new spring artic'es if dress, in ma' erial and general manufacture. Lt.t them zakulate the immense saving Ir ffe et ed by the great economy of L. HYAM'S charges, and they will be convinced of the fact, that the superior claim to public supcort is undoubtedly possessed by " the City," so far, at least, is the offers of L. IIYAM are concerned. OBSERVE l—L. IITAM begs to state that he has no connexion with an similar establishment in frcidon. 36, Gracechi..rch-street, City (establishished upwards of 15 years), is the only place of busi a.ess carried on by L. RYAN, where the public can be sttoplied with good, du:101N and fashionable Clothing, of sound w.irktuansltip, at such ecotrimical prices as must defy all competition. L. RYAN!, Tailor, Clothier, Ratter, Rosier, and General Outfitter, 36, Graeechurch-street, Ci y. \V HAT the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE QUFII has just FOUND OUT.—That the increaso of the re venue in 12 months exceeds ninehundred and twenty thousands, and an advantage wit! be derived by Be. n ition and individuals by a re duction of the rate of interest, which is to advance the real value of property. the favourahle impression this has made on our com mercial citizens fully roves that Quality and Cheapness are the most approved principles of Business. 'this, very convincingly, sipports the practices of E. MOSES and SON, who commenced, and alone have carried out, the most substantial improvements in DRESS, at a reduction in prices far beyond the expectations of the ablest financier. What have E. MOSES and SON "just brought out ?" The most magnificent and GIGANTIC STOCK of SPRING and SUMMER GOODS ever exhibited—peerless illustrations of the latest improve ment's in the world's commerce, the materials being selected w.th unparalleled diligence and perfe_t experience, from the newest and best samples furnished by every celebrated manufactory, British and Foreign. In this selection the success of E. MOSES and SON'S BUYERS will be found advantageous to their PATRONS and the I'UBLIC in ways too numerous for detail. 'the richest, most novel and varied—the finest and best materials—the first order of fashions the most artistic cut—the neatest and best workmanship—is com bined with a great reduction in the prices or every description of ATTIRE, HOSIERY, HATS and CAPS, BOOTS Ind SHOES, &c., Etc. Inspect the endless novelties in SPRING and SUMMER VESTS and TROUSERS, the thousands of NEW STYLES and fabrics of incomparable elegance, the SPRING and SUMMER COATS and OVERCOATS, which for style, quality, and price have no equal, and it will be "found out" that E. MOSES and SON have provided Spring and Summer Dress for all classes in the amplest and most economical manner. EMIGRANTS to AUSTRAL! %, or ally other part of the world, may save as much by purchasing tlrir Outfits and requisite Clothing at E. MOSES and SON'S as, in many instances, will pay the cost of their passage : when the superior quality of the goosis and the prices they are charged are compared, the saving is nearly half the amount which might have been expended elsewhere. E. MOSES and SON'S WHOLESALE BUSINESS offers the safest and most profitable investments for Capitalists and every class of Emigrants; ihe Goods, taxi. g a world-wide celebrity, are sold without inconveni nee, and turn to better interest than any other description of merchandise. The magnitude of E. MOSES and SON'S Outfitting Business in duces them to keep a separate Department for Emigrants; they also furnish (without any charge) full Lists of Outfits for Ladies and Gentlemen, with Shipsahing informat &c., either on application or post free, to any part of the kingdom.

I sought every aid and the advice of surgeons and physicians, by all of whom the case was considered hopeless. I then tried your Ointment and Pills, and without exaggeration the effect was miraculous, for in a short time she was restored to perfect health, and so remains.

The Phoenix has all her stores on board, and is in every respect ready for sea, with the exception of having to take an additional supply of coals, which will be put on board immediately, previously to her departure for the Arctic regions. Captain J. Ful ford, Commander J. M. Cooke, Commander F. A. Campbell, and Lieutenant E. W. Tumour, officers of the royal navy studying steam at the factory at Wool wich Dockyard, with Mr. Roughton, of the steam de partment, were on board during the trial, to witness the working of her engines of 260-horse-power, on John Penn and Son's oscillating principle. The Phoenix re turned to Woolwich at half-past six p.m., and is to be taken into the basin until the Breadalbane (hired trans port) is strengthened, to be ready to go with her on her enterprising voyage. She steers well, answering her helm with the greatest nicety—a matter of great satis faction, considering the difficult navigation she will have to go through for so large a steamer in the ice, and amongst the icebergs of the North Polar regions.
