H. G. IRELAND, OF 9, B L D-S TREE T, B EGS most respectfully to inform the Ladies of of Liverpool that his STOCK OF FURS, FOR THE SEASON, • IS NOW READY ; At the same time he returns his sincere thanks for the distin guished patronage he has received during ten years, which has enabled him to offer for their approval the LARGEST RETAIL STOCK OF FURS IN THE KINGDOM, Comprising every Description, and all the Novelties that have yet appeared in the LONDON OR PARISIAN MARKETS, In inviting the Ladies to an inspection thereof, he does not wish to hold out any absurd inducement. He feels, however, gratified in observing, that as he purchases his Skins precisely on the same terms as the largest Wholesale Houses, and also Manufactures them, be obtains thereby an advantage over the smaller purchaser, who merely retails them, and is enabled to charge much lower than they possibly can. The Establish ment is, moreover, exclusively devoted to the Sale of FURS. TO ALTERATIONS AND REPAIRS - it will always be his study to devote as much attention and care as if he was engaged in the manufacture of new articles; and as he never trusts them to other than the most clever arti sans the trade can produce, and takes every care that all the departments of his House are under his own inspection, and on the premises, he has the utmost security for punctual and faithful execution of every order with which he may be entrusted. THE AUTUMN PURCHASES being now completed, the varied produce of London, Man chester, Bradford, Halifax, Huddersfield, Glasgow, Paisley, Galashiels, and other districts, in great profusion, choice in patterns, colours, and assortment, IS NOW READY FOR SALE.

STIVENS'S ORIGINAL GREEN GINGER WINE, PATRONISED BY ROYALTY. THE superiority and increased demandofSTIVENS'S uttIGINAL LiKEEN GINGER WINE has called forth a host of imitations.

JXPERIENCE has convinced thousands that the ANTI-CALLOSITY or RUSSIAN CORN and BUNION PLAISTER, is the most certain and effectual remedy ever offered to the Public. By the use of this excellent Plaister, im mediate benefit will be found ; and in a short time a RADICAL CURE—not by the general mode of drawing out the Corn, and frequently cutting, (WHICH IS ALWAYS ATTENDED WITH EXTREME DANGER,) but by gradually dispersing the hard or soft Corn, and entirely removing those painful throbbings so severely felt at every change of weather. BUNIONS and all Callous Excrescences, whatever part of the foot they may be on, are removed in time by wearing a piece of this Plaster, which need be changed only once in seven or eight days. Servants who are compelled to stand in hot kitchens with stone floors, will find a sovereign remedy for those dreadful pains they experience in the feet ; and to thousands of indi viduals whose existence depends upon walking, this remedy will prove an inestimable blessing.

PRIESTLEY'S FLUID EXTRACT of the Finest RED JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA. This most efficient and agreeable preparation of that well known and valuable alterative, JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA, is prepared by a peculiar and scientific method, by which the whole of the aromatic and volatile parts are preserved ; and the experience of many years has fully established the reputation of this Medicine, as containing more of the virtues of the root than any other preparation. Its beneficial effects have been par ticularly striking in the following complaints : Nocturnal Pains in the Limbs, Scrofulous Enlargement of the Glands, Cutaneous Affections, Chronic Rheumatism, &c., &c. ; in free ing the system after a course of Mercury its beneficial effects are very powerful. It purifies the blood, and by giving to the cutaneous vessels a healthy and regular action, it removes that disposition to Erysipilatous Inflammation from which so many persons periodically suffer; and when taken in the Spring and Fall of the Year as an Alterative Medicine, it will be found to impart that strength to the constitution which is indicated by firmness of flesh, good appetite, and freshness of the com plexion. Sold in Bottles, 4s. 6d., 7s. 6d., and II s., and 225. COUGH AND ASTHMATICAL DROPS, FOR COUGHS, COLDS, ASTHMAS, CONSUMPTIONS, &C.

These Drops are also the best preventive that can be taken against SPITTING OF BLOOD, and AFFECTION Of the LUNGS. Persons troubled with ASTHMA are considerably relieved by taking a few doses of the Drops, as they tend to promote ex pectoration and remove viscid phlegm. For the speedy cure of the HOOFING Couutt, they are no less efficacious. Those who are troubled with that unpleasant tickling in the Throat, which deprives them of rest night after night, by the incessant Cough which it provokes, will, by taking one dose, find imme diate relief ; and one bottle, in most cases, will effect a cure.

GEORGE BOYER and CO., WINE and SPIRIT MERCHANTS,' and WHOLESALE BOTTLERS. 26, NORTH JOHN-STREET, CORNER OF HARRINGTON-STREET. THE MOST DURABLE OUT-DOOR PAINT EVER INVENTED. C - -- ARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION PAINT, specially patronised by the British and other Governments, the Hon. East India Company, the Principal Dock Companies, and other Public Bodies, is particularly recommended to the Nobility, Gentry, Agriculturists, Manu facturers, West India Proprietors, and others, it having been proved by the practical test of more than sixty years to surpass all other paints as an out-door preservative. It is extensively used for the protection of wooden houses, farm and other out buildings, farming implements, conservatories, park paling, gates, iron railings, iron hurdles, copper, zinc, lead, brick, stone, old compo, and stucco fronts, and tiles to represent slat ing. The superiority of the Atti-Corrosion to every other paint for out-door purposes may be easily inferred from the simple fact, that its use has been always most strenuously opposed by Color Manufacturers, Painters, Oil and Colormen, and others interested in the sale of common paints. It is also very econo mical, any labourer being able to lay it on. Colors (in powder): White stone, light stone, drab or Port land stone. Bath stone, light and dark yellow stone, light and dark oak, light and dark lead, light and dark chocolate, bright and dark red, black, and brown, 348. per cwt.; invisible green, 505., bright green, 615.. deep green, 605., and blue. 60s. per cwt. in casks, 281 b., 561 b., and 1121 b. each.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT CURE OF RHEUMATISM AND RHEUMATIC GOUT. Extract of a Letter from Mr. Thomas Brunton, Landlord of the Waterloo Tavern, Coatham, Yorkshire, late of the Life Guards, dated September 24th,1848. To Professor HOLLOWAY. Sir,—For a long time I was a Martyr to Rheumatism and Rheumatic Gout, and for ten weeks previous to using your me dicines I was so bad as not to be able to walk. I had tried doctoring . and medicines of every kind, but all to no avail, in deed I daily got worse, and felt that I must shortly die. From seeing your remedies advertised in the paper I take in, I thought I would give them a trial. I did s o. I ru bb e d the Ointment in as directed, and kept cabbage leaves to the parts thickly spread with it, and took the Pills night an d morning. In three weeks I was enabled to walk about for an hour or two in the day with a stick, and in seven weeks I could go any where without one. I am now, by the blessing of God a n d y our me di c i nes , qu it e well, and have been attending to my business for more than seven months, without any symptoms of the return of my old complaint. _ Be r- sides my case of Rheumatic Gout, I have lately had proof that your Pills and Ointment will heal any old wound or ulcer, as a married woman, living near me, had had a bad leg for four years, which no one could cure, and I gave her some of your Pills and Ointment, which soundly healed it when no thing else would do it. For your information I had the honour to serve my country for twenty-five years in the first regiment of Life Guards, and was eighteen years a Corporal. I was two years in the Peninsular War, and was at the Battle of Water loo. I was discharged with a pension en the 2d September, 1833. The Commanding Officer at the time, was Colonel Lygon, who is now a General. I belonged to the troop of Captain the Honourable Henry Baring. (.signed) THOMAS BRUNTON. CURE OF A BAD LEG OF TWENTY-ONE YEARS' STANDING. Extract of a Letter from Mr. Andrew Brack, Blacksmith, Eye mouth, near Berwick, dated the 18th day of August, 1848. To Professor HOLLOWAY. Sir,—With pleasure and gratitude I have to inform you that after suffering for twenty-one years with a bad leg, which yielded to no kind of treatment, although I consulted, at differ ent times, every medical man of eminence in this part of the Country, but all to no purpose. I was frequently unable to work ; and the pain and agony I often endured no one can tell- My leg is now as sound as ever it was in my life by means of your Pills and Ointment, which I purchased from Mr. I. Da vidson, Druggist, Berwick-upon-Tweed, who knows my case well, and will, I am sure, be happy to certify with me, if neces sary, as to the truth of this wonderful cure. (Signed) ANDREW BRACK.

HALSE, the MEDICAL GALVANIST, of 22, Brunswick-square, London, earnestly recommends In valids and Gentlemen of the Medical profession to peruse the following. It cannot but surprise them, and will prove to them the all but miraculous powers of Galvanism, when applied in a scientific manner, and with an efficient apparatus. The following case is perhaps as remarkable a one as could be selected, as showing the powers of Galvanism, after every medicine, and almost every medical practitioner in Devonshire, had been tried in vain; and as the truth of it is witnessed by a distinguished Clergyman of the Established Church, there can, one would suppose, be no doubt in any one's mind as to its ac curacy. When the patient was brought to Mr. H. his wife told him that she could not believe that Galvanism or anything else could possibly restore bim,for his complaint had been standing so long, and he was in such a weak state, that it would be pre sumptuous to expect any benefit, particularly as he had tried the most celebrated physicians in Devonshire, and still daily continued to get worse. She also stated that her friends blamed her very much for removing him from his home ; but she could not help it I her husband had heard of such extraordinary cures made by Mr. H. in his complaint, that galvanized he would be, in spite of everything. His medical man was quite angry with him for thinking of such a thing; and when his friends were carryinghim from his house to the carriage, every one appeared to be convinced that they should never see him alive any more. But notwithstanding all the difficulties he had to contend with, he was determined, and insisted upon being gal vanized. The following letter, which he sent to the editor of the Exeter Flying Post, will prove the result : OUGHT NOT GALVANISM TO BE MORE GENERALLY RESORTED TO ?--A Letter to the Editor of the Flying Post, by one who has derived immense benefit from the power of the Galvanic Apparatus. " MR. EDITOR ' —A few weeks since I noticed a paragraph by you stating that Galvanism ought to be more generally em ployed. I beg to state that lam precisely of the same opinion, for I have A itnessed its astonishing effects in a number of cases, and its power has been tried practically on myself, with the happiest results. In that paragraph I was most happy to find favourable mention of Mr. Halse's name. All that you have said of him, and even more, is his due ; indeed, as for myself, I have cause to bless the day that I first placed myself under his care. Now, sir, my case was a most deplorable one, for I had not the least use of either arm or leg—they hung about me like as if they did not belong to me, and the strength of my legs was insufficint to support the weight of my body ; of course I could not stand, and if you had offered me a thousand guineas to move either hand but one inch from the place where it might have been placed, I could not have done it ; not the least command had I over my limbs. My complaint was caused by a blow in the back. Well, as before stated, I placed myself under Mr. Halse's galvanic treatment. I had been led to believe that it was a dreadful operation to go through ; but I was agreeably surprised that there was no unpleasantness at all about it, not even enough to make a child cry, so beauti fully does Mr. Halse manage his battery. In three days, sir, I could stand upon my legs, and in one week I could walk about the house' ; at the same time, I also partially recovered the use of my arms; and in six weeks, I could walk several miles in a day, without the least assistance. Well 'night you ask, Ought not galvanism to, be much resorted to ?' After what I have seen and experienced, I do consider it a shame that a portion of the medical profession should decline to recommend their patients to try the powers cf galvanism. Perhaps I need not state, that I had bad the advice of the most celebrated physi cians in this country; but all the medicines which were tried did me little or no good. I believe that Mr. Halse was as much surprised as myself and friends, when, at the expiration of a week, he saw tnat I could walk, for he did not lead me to be lieve that there -would be such a rapid improvement. I will state, that invalids are very much to blame if they do not give galvanism a trial, for if it does no good. it is impossible it can do any harm ;:but there is every probability of its doing good, for during the time I was under Mr. Halse's care, I noticed its happy effects in a variety of cases, particularly sciatica, rheu matism, asthma, and nervousness; indeed, all his patients were rapidly regaining their health. I only regret that I had not applied to him earlier; I should have been many scores of pounds in pocket had I done so. " GEORGE E. BIONELL. " New London Inn, Dodbrooke, King:bridge. " Witness to the truth of the above—C. G. Owen, Rector of Dodbrooke, near Elingsbridge, Devon." Mr. Halse recommends paralytic patients residing in the country to purchase one of his Ten Gninea Portable Appara tuses ; as, with his instructions, they will be enabled to apply the Galvanism themselves, without the least pain, and fully as effective as be could at his own residence. Invalids are solicited to send to Mr. W. H. Halse. of 22, Brunswick-square, London, for his pamphlet on Medical Gal vanism, which will be forwarded free on receipt of two postage stamps. They will be astonished at its contents. In it will be found the particulars of such cures in cases of asthma, rheu matism, sciatica, tic-doloureux, paralysis, spinal complaints, headache, deficiency of nervous energy, liver complaints,:general debility, indigestion, stiff joints, all sorts of nervous disorders, &c. Mr. Halse's method of applying the galvanic fluid is quite free from all unpleasant sensation ; in fact, it is rather plea surable than otherwise, and many . ladies are exceedingly fond of it. It quickly causes the patient to do without medicine. Terms One Guinea per week. The above Pamphlet contains his Letters on Medical Galvanism. DESTRUCTIVE FIRES IN GLASGOW, MAN CHESTER, LINCOLN'S-INN, &c. MILNER'S " HOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe guards in the world against fire, robbery, and fraud; 20,000 of them keep the books, deeds, and cash of the practical men of Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, &c., who know their supe riority to any other others. Five of them have brought their contents unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow alone this year. wherein scores of other safes have been burnt out. Twenty-five offices were burnt out in Lincoln's Inn in January. in one alone of which the title-deeds of thirty large landed estates were burnt, which would all have been preserved in Milner's Safes. From some hundreds of certificates, the following is selected, as one out of many instanees in which everything was consumed in the buildings excepting what Milner's Safe contained : "Clyde-street, Anderston, Glasgow, May 7, 1849. "Gentlemen,—At the calamitous fire yesterday morning, by which our premises, and stock of oil, tallow, &c., were totally destroyed, our books were preserved in the Milner's Fireproof Safe, purchased from you. We have great pleasure in thus bearing testimony to the great efficiency of these Safes. "CHARLES BOYD and Co. "This Safe was most severely tested, the brass knob and brass work about the lock were melted off." "Glasgow, 10th February, 1849. "Gentlemen,—The books and papers which we had in your Fire-resisting Safe, which was subjected to a most intense heat for several hours a t the late fire in Gordon-street, on Thursday last, were wholly preserved—the property saved being of ex treme importance to us. We have, therefore, great pleasure in communicating this fact, deeming your Safes invaluable as a protection against fire, and an invention with which the public cannot be too well acquainted. "We are, gentlemen, your obedient servants, " KER, DOERING, and CO. " Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son, Liverpool." The outside of the above Safe was completely burnt through. "Triumphant R es i s t ance to Robbers." _ _ "Gentlemen,—Our Milner's Safe was attempted to be broken open last night • but notwithstanding the great and persevering violence with which the robbers have worked at .the door and back of the safe both of which are beaten in and cut through the outer plates in numerous places,) the lock and bolts re mained true, and saved the contents. You may send us another Milnet's Holdfast Safe, No. 6. "Glasgow, Dec. 21, 1848 JAS. RICHARDSON and Co." "Manchester, August 13th, 1847. "Gentlemen,—ln the late Fire in Market-street, which en irely gutted the whole block of buildings of which my Ware house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you that my books, together with a . quantity of valuable papers, watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire resisting Safes, wills I I strongly recommend to the public. " I am, your obedient servant, "THOMAS HAIGH, " Woollen Merchant, New Brown -street and Market-street. "Messrs. MILNER and SON." In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests which Milner's Safes have been exposed to—every description of Safe in use—Fire-proof (so called) or otherwise, have been burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the scientific and practical authorities who have tested them ; and the Patentees, during seven years' active working of their pa tent, on a rapidly extending scale ? have spared no pains or cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete and secure dtpositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables, including the strongest Wrought-Iron Safes, Closets, and Doors in the world, lined with their unequilled Fire -resisting Chambers. Out of upwards of 20,000 of their Safes in use amongst the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses in Great Britain—the class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of se vere trial in accidental Fires have occurred, from which Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they are of opinion that no other Safe than their own would have preserved its contents unburnt : Fire at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship Chandlery Store, Spar ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierce Fire; Safe most severely burnt outside. • Fire at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders, Birkenhead; buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in them, including the contents of a large Iron Safe and Drawers, standing beside Milner's ; the contents of Milners' uninjured, and in use now. Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong Fire; again the contents of Milner's Safe the only thing saved on the premises. Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth; a very extensive and destructive Fire; a large Iron Safe, covered with Brick work, with double iron doors, burnt out ; Milner's entirely preserving its contents. Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number of Safes and Closets burnt out ; no books saved throughout the buildings excepting Messrs. S. R. a• .d Thomas Brown's, in Milner's Safe.

GENTLEMEN, THE Requisition which has been presented to me by a Deputation from your body, so numerously and highly respectably signed by gentlemen of all parties, to allow myself to be nominated as a CANDIDATE for the REPRE SENTATION of your WARD, in the Town Council of this Borough, at the ensuing Election on the first of November next, is of such a nature, that although I had for many years given up all idea of ever again entering into public life, I feel too greatly honoured by the present unexpected appeal to me to reject the application you have now made. I assure you that, if elected, I intend to enter into the duties of this new station with the same faithful zeal and energy that I have always endeavoured to manifest in the public service, and with an earnest desire to promote the welfare and pros perity of this great commercial town. A high Tory in principle, I nevertheless lament as much as any man the unhappy divisions which have so long destroyed the best interests of this country ; and I cannot but reel that, in this respect, I am the more highly honoured in that I see the names of so many gentlemen in the Requision which has been presented to me who have always hitherto been opposed to those political principles I have ever professed. With respect to the two great and important questions which now agitate this community, I beg to refer to my opinions against the Rivington Scheme and in favour of Dock Rating, avowed in the two letters published in the Liverpool Courier of the 29th November, 1848, and the 3d January, 1649, in reply to the letters of Samuel Holme, Esq., also published in the same journal; and I beg to say, that I have no reason to change my opinions on these matters, but rather to state, that all which has since taken place has only strengthened and con firmed them. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, With much respect, Your faithful and obedient servant, ALGERNON FREDERICK JONES. Liverpool. 27, Falkner-square, 25th September, 1849. TO THE ELECTORS OF ST. PETER'S WARD. GENTLEMEN, AVING been waited upon by a highly respectable and influential Deputation, with a request that I would allow myself to be p u t in nomi na ti on as a C an d i date for your Suffrages at the ensuing Municipal Election, on the Ist of November, I hasten to express my grateful acknowledgments for this expression of your confidence. I should, indeed, be wanting in my duty to my Fellow Bur gesses, were I not at once to place myself unreservedly in your hands. As a Candidate, I wish to state explicitly my views on the two great questions which now agitate the public mind. As regards providing the town with water, I consider it requisite that the home supply should be honestly and fairly tested, pre viously to the outlay of so large an amount of money as the carrying out of the Rivington Pike scheme would involve. In reference to the rating of the Dock and Corporate Estates, I hold it to be but equitable that all Property in the town. whether public or private, should contribute its fair and just proportion to the local rates. If elected, I shall at all times consider myself bound to re flect, in the Council Chamber, the opinion of a majority of m constituents on all important subjects which may arise; and shall also consider it my duty to support the strictest economy in the expenditure of the Corporate Funds, compatible with the efficient conduct of the public service. I am, Gentlemen, faithfully yours, JOHN CHARLES FERNIHOUGH. Parr-street, October Ist ,1849. CHEAP TRAVELLING BETWEEN LIVERPOOL, WARRINGTON, & MANCHESTER. FARE, THREEPENCE.

THE COLONIAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY Registered and Empowered under Ad of Parliament, 7th and Bth Victoria, cap, no. CAPITAL, .e 500,060. GOVERNOR. The Right Hon.

The COLONIAL COMPANY has been established for the pur pose of affording the benefits of Life Assurance to persons resident in the Colonies or in India. Before the establishment of the " Colonial," Life Assurance in the Colonies was almost unknown, and where its protection was afforded the rates de manded were so exorbitant as to be almost a complete bar to such transactions. The Company commenced business in 1846, and the result which has attended its operations fully bears out the anticipa tions of success which its founders entertained. NO EXTRA CHARGE is made for residence in Canada; and parties have the privilege of passing between Great Britain and North America free of expense. One of the GREAT ADVANTAGES offered by this Company is the permission given to Assurers to pass from the most healthy to the most unhealthy part of the Globe, without taking out a New Policy, a second stamp by this arrangement being rendered unnecessary, and the possibility of rejection following upon a second Medical Examination avoided altogether—the change in premium being the only di f ference. Parties proceeding to the SOUTHERN STATES OF NORTH AMERICA for the COTTON SEASON will find this Company a most advantageous one for Assurance.—On returning to Eu rope the Assured will commence to pay the HOME RATE under Premium States, fal ls S d o u u e t h n A n t he 2 e - CLASSFOR A, RESIDENCE when t he next renewal India,tb the Ame rica, a n , the is Cape of the P o of Go licy. Good Hope, West Indies, Australia, &c., the Rates will also be found very moderate. THE COLONIAL COMPANX have Branch Offices and Agencies in the follbwing places : IN GREAT BRITAIN—At Edinburgh (head-office,) London, and Glasgow ' with Sub-Agencies in the principal Towns in England and Scotland.

THESE LANTERNS, the Glasses of which are of the peculiar shades which alone are approved of by the Admiralty, are so constructed that when properly managed on Shipboard, it is IMPOSSIBLE that COLLISIONS, or other Accidents incident thereto, can take place. The LIGHTS are arranged—Red, for the Port side; Green, for the Starboard side; and a brilliant White light, (discernible at least SIX MILES distant,) for Amid-ships. The peculiar advantages of these Lanterns are, that one or both of the Coloured Lights may be brought into action at once, so as to denot,, uNmISTAKA BLy, the Ship's true course; whilst, on ordinary occasions, the White Light alone may be used. The Lanterns are made of the BEST MATERIALS, and got up in the foremost style of workmanship by HENRY FOSTER AND SON, BRASS AND IRON FOUNDERS, At their Establishment, 20, WATERLOO-ROAD, LIVERPOOL, Where detailed Prospectuses and every information may be had.
