The Empowered by Act of Parliamen t. systeml, 01 Deferred Annuities , orig inall y p roposed by the Na ,„,__ an Fund Life Assurance Society , fo r the better advance - e.4 '% the objects of Benefit and Friendly Societies, having received a Pprobation of a considerable body cf the active members and t d ei l Of those Institutions, and the Direc tors of the National Loan society having been urgently solicite d b y them to establish a cOffice in connexion with those S ocieties and the Operative e i L7 generally, in which their services might be .successftelly en -7'4 a Committee has been sanctioned by the Directors to open t ee , ;anication with the different Socie ties, with the view of more 2allY disseminating the valuable benefits amongst the incluse —44 classes, and a plan has been proposed with that object. ADDRESS OF THE COMMITTEE. ba n e Praiseworthy but ineffectual at tem p ts have been made to Within the scope and operation of the laws of mortality a nd t7,17,3' the savings of the industrious classes, as well as variou s cal , "re regulating their distribution, having for their t.bject either ,:cdiate, contingent, or deferred benefits. is„,_thght examination, however, will demonstrate that the con elf.tion of these associations or societies is defective; and that in isl4,,Of affording an easy access and a free choice of investment, a',,l* l should be the privilege of every one, they confine too nar ked Y, the channel through which a benefit can alone be secured ; be i e d i proportion as their action is circumscribed and embarrassed, T o etility is limited. For examp le, it is not to every individual, it,every class amongst the industrious community, that provisi on tare of sickness is an object of such importance as to call for a dsry sacrifice ; whre, to others such a provision appears more tei'thre, and the loss of employment caused by sickness is a risk t i' l !t , Which they desire to be guarded. For this anomalous state • 62 1 2gS there is an effective and simple remedy ; to say, ,7a of covering, by one week l y or annual payment, two or more I ti 'ngent or deferred benefits, so to arrange it that each separate 4- 1 1 t shoulhave its separate co. titls to not having observed this ntribution rule, and to the associa tion of o et e n ... &similar functions, and by con f o unding a sick allowan ce and be!anuity fund in one and the self-same payment, that much of the sand mismanagement has arisen amongst Benefit S ocieties. e n N o mechanism can be so perfect for the management of a sick- Ned provision as that afforded by the constant sectional asso aila and watchfulness of the several members composing it. By tae but a thorough and constant check is mutually exercised, and `,ent the really sick are likely to become chargeable upon it. eh e a Ps same perfection, or the same security, is seldom attainable %e re a fund is to be accumulated through a succession of years, 4 - I :nere results arc to bear out calculations, money investment trnl s hi general beyond the experience of the industrious classes. mere reasons it is clear that the fends destined for a provision in vision should be kept entirely distinct from the fund intended as a for eat age Because the laws of sickness a nd mortality, though apparently l Oseted, do not depend on the same ca lculation. e, Because there are a great number who, in order to secure a Provision in old age the a ms re willing to take the risk of p roviding Probable sicknoss on elves. tint ,dlli Because the responsibility of managing a provision for old age, ed to a distant period is, in a great mea sure, incompatible nth i h ,7 voluntary associations, fluctuating laws, and individual irre- C e ,?ibility, and more exposed to a failure in the performance of s te lt a contract, that when undertaken on the same principles that 4 1 larily e govern commercial bodies. 4 a. Bexause the expenses of providing for sickness must, when ej:ed in the same payment with provision for old age, tend to dimi- Ca :till more this provision : nor is it w isdom or good policy to en r the'one for the sake of the other. wTaPressed with these convictions , and with an intimate knowledge ae discussions passing within the bosom o f man y of the existing C o ndly and Benefit Societies, the parties whose names are here t7 attached, have had several meeti n g s, with a view of proposing i a dopting a remedy for those and ot her evils ; and in this manner ner t a ve an additional force to the principles of brotherhood, unity, tetanal aid, on which friendly so cieties are based, by guarding ai from the risks of sudden dissolution. ni ftCr much diligent search amen ~st the combina tions ingeniously leas from time to tiara for the at tainment of one of the principal InZts of Friendly and Benefit Societies, they have found none equal eePlicity and comprehensiveness of design, as well as forethought be s ' 3.l bPather for the e vents of the industr ious classes, as •the plan Posed by the National Loon Fund Life Assurance Society. It is t ee - diet the author of that plan has furnished an. argument agans enniT i Men in sickness • but, without conc urring in the immediate i ex t - ith ee en cY of abandoning ' a provision in sickness, no one can read the Peet of the plan itself, without being fully sa'isfled that the ni,'' r enience and safety of Friendly and I.leneflt Societies will be 41 0 4 4 secured and consulted, by separating the payment of a sick ' l 'ance from an annuity for old ae,e. FneedePutatiOn having waited on the directors of the National Loan "'. Who met in the handsomest m anner the overtures made to h em for the establishment of a separate °flecks for the transaction of ile nt n !ss connected with Friendly and Benefit Societies, and the in -Ititellt,cma classes in general, resolutions have been entered into, con tienilag the undersigned as a Committee, with power to add to its te xe 7c , for the promulgation of the benefits contained in the an , se t Prospectus, under she guarantee of the Capital of the Society, e i „which, without interfering with the numerous objects connected nth the institution of Benefit and Friendly Societies, will in their S'aion the -greatly enlarge their sphere of utility, and afford a protection working classes in old age en d adversity, which nothing up to Present day has adequately secured' to them.

The weather is promising, and there is hope yet to be indulged of a fair spring trade. Provisions seem to have attained their highest price, and to be lowering in a satisfactory manner. This alone will improve the general condition of this and every other manufacture. HOSIERY.—The hosiery trade is, if any change be observable, somewhat better, the demand having slightly increased. The velvet lace patent is still progressing, and we have seen specimens of good velvet made from the bobbin-net machine. A patent has been obtained for making this article, both from the warp frame and the rolling locker bobbin-net machine. By the latter method the web is made from two distinct warp beams, and an instrument comes between the two, which cuts them into separate picci a, leaving a pile upon each. The warp-method has a shuffle.. The making of muslin lace engages the anxious attention of most of the able mechanics, and great efforts are making to improve and extend this manufacture, for which we understand there are consi derable orders, and the demand will be more extensive when this excellent article becomes generally known.— Nottinghunt Review.

FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, MARCH 26,—N0 great extent of business has been done in foreign wools this week, but the prospects for the spring trade appear more encouraging. ENGLISFI WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, MARCH 26.—The transactions in wool this week have nut been large, and are limited to a supply of the immediate wants of the manufacturers. In prices we do not quote any alteration from last w' ek's rates. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, MARCH 26.—Though we cannot note any great increase in the sales of this week, we have certainly had more inquiry, and prices are fully as firm as last week. There is an opinion that we have seen our lowest point for the present. LEEDs.—The cloth markets at both Cloth Halls have been of much the same character as the markets during the last few weeks. The demand continues to be prin cipally for goods of low qualities for shipping ; but fine goods, considering the season, continue to be exceed. ingly dull of sale. Prices continue steady, and the stocks moderate. Business continues to improve in the warehouses a little. The wholesale houses buy with the greatest caution. The country drapers are, however, purchasing very freely for Easter, and foreign houses are moving a little more than they have done for some time. On the whole, the prospects are considered more en couraging than might have been expected a few weeks ago. BRADFORD MARKET, MARCH 25.—There is a steady demand for combing wool, and as the supply is a bare one, prices are firm. Short wools continue in good re quest at former prices. There is considerable improve ment in the yarn market, both for the home and export trade. The spinners are mostly working to order, and a considerable number of idle frames have been brought into requisition. There is a slight increase in prices. The business in the piece market has a stirring aspect. Largo purchases still continue to be made, both for America and the Continent. We cannot, however, hear of any improvement in prices, which continue stationary. A deal of silk is now used in our trade. MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.—We have no decided change in our cloth market this week, though more inquiries, perhaps, by the larger buyers, but which, as far as has transpired, has led to no important transacion. As the staple is rather easier to buy, a corresponding reduction seems to be expected by our merchants, but which ,neither spinners nor manufac turers seem inclined to submit to—indeed profits are out of the question. The market closes firmly. g are o g is la : d mo t n o th h , av t e he t r o , having been a good demand for fancy hollands, so that the weavers have been generally well employed. We note i3A r 8 slight E p N r o em D n E t u W r i n e understand that there is a good amount of orders on hand, making the prospect for the spring months tole rably good. TRADE OF LEICESTF.R.—Th® London trade still con- tinues very flat; country houses are making cautiously, and no improvement has yet manifested itself in the are steady. The cotton market is flatter, and one house demat i d. Spinners are still working short time. Wools has this week given notice of a r eduction of one shilling per bundl e f rom the last list.—Leicetter Journal. THE LACE TRADE.—We have had a few buyers, and the market continues much in the same state we last reported—rather quiet, without any change in prices. HER MAJESTY'S DRAWING ROOM. On Saturday, her Majesty the. Queen, held a drawing room at St. James's Palace, being the first for the sea son. It was first appointed to be held on Thursday last, the 25th instant, but with that kind consideration for all classes of her subjects which distinguishes all her Ma jesty's acts, and with a view of obviating everything which might tend to prevent the due and proper obser vance of the public fast and humiliation before God, ap pointed for Wednesday last, the Queen directed its post ponement from Thursday until Saturdays The extreme fineness of the weather drew out a very large number of well-dressed persons to witness the dis play of rank, fashion, and beauty consequent upon such occasions. As early as twelve eeloelr tespeetable persons began to assemble in the Mall of St. James's Park, particularly at the end nearest to Buckingham Palace, and before one o'clock both sides of the mall from the garden gates on the north side of the entrance into the palace was hired principally by elegantly dressed females, to beyond the garden entrance of St. James's Palace. Throughout also Stable-yard, Pall-mall, St. James's-street, and Albe marle-street, both sides were lined by spectators two and three deep. Along Constitution-hill, and at Hyde Park-corner, there was a large assemblage of persons to see the progress of the Foreign Ambassadors, the Great Officers of State, and others having the privilege of the entrée. Shortly before one o'clock the line of route described was lined by a strong body of police,of different divi sions, under the direction of Superintendents May, Beresford, Lowry, Hughes, Grimwood, &c., and soon after one o'clock' the regiment of Royal Horse Guards (Blue) from Knightsbridge Barracks, preceded by their splendid band, in gorgeous State dresses, with black velvet caps, entered Constitution -hill from Hyde Park, the band playing, to the delight of the assembled multi tude. From the garden-gate of Buckingham Palace to the garden-gate of St. James's Palace, the mall was lined by a portion of the regiment, stationed by twos, and the remainder, with the band, passed through the Stable-yard, lining the route as they proceeded, the band taking up its position in the open space in front of St. James's Palace, and opposite to St. James's-street. About half-past one o'clock, the 2d Regiment of Life Guards, from Regent's-park Barracks, also preceded by their splendid band, in magnificent state dresses, with black velvet caps, marched down St. James's-street, their band playing, and on reaching the bottom a squa dron appointed as an escort, proceeded to Buckingham Palace. The remainder, with the band, passed through Hanover gate, and took up their position in the large quadrangle opposite Marlborough-house, and having on the first entrance played the national anthem, continued to perform most of the popular compositions of the day. The guard of honour in the flag court was a detachment of the Fusilier Guards. Some of the company began to arrive shortly after or :e o'clock, and amongst those distinguished individuals, great officers of state, &c„ who were early in their at• tendance, we noticed the Duke of W ellin g ton, the Mar quis of Lansdowne, Sir C. Grey, Bart. ; Sir J. C. Hob house, Viscount Palmerston, the Lord Chancellor, Lord Campbell, Earl Clarendon, Viscount Morpeth, Arch bishop of Canterbury, &c. The Foreign Ambassadors, Ministers, and corps diplornatigue, the Bishops, &c., all entered at the entrance in the Ambassadors'-court. About a quarter to two o'clock their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, with the Princess Mary, and their attendants, entered St. James's Palace in two carriages by the garden gate. At ten minutes to two her Majesty and her It iyal and Illustrious Consort, Prince Albert took their de parture from Buckingham Palace, and proceeded to St James's Palace. The royal cortege consisted of three of the private state carriages, the two first containing the members of the royal suite, each drawn by two black horses, splendidly caparisoned with rich crimson ribbons, and the coachman and two footmen to each carriage in state liveries; and the third, containing her Majesty and Princ' , Albrt, was drawn by two or the beautiful cream-coloured Hanoverian horses used only on state occasions, richly caparisoned with deep blue ribbons, with massive chest-plates of the royal arms; the coachman and four footmen dressed in state liveries with black velvet caps, the royal escort consisting of a squadron of Life Guards. The Queen, we rejoice to say, looked remarkably well, as did also Prince Albert. They were most enthusias tically received along the whole line of the assembled thousands, and both her Majesty and her Illustrious Consort returned the congratulations of her loving subjects with her accustomed grace and condescension. The Queen was wrapped in a splendid ermine mantle, end her head- dress was a tiara of diamonds. Prince Albert wore the uniform of a field marshal. Her Ma jesty, on alighting, was received by the military bands playing the national anthem, " God save the Queen." This was the first drawing room which our gracious Sovereign has held since the appointment of the present Government. There were, therefore, to be ,made not only the formal presentations of the various members of that body upon taking office upon their appointments, but it was also the first similar occasion upon which the Earl Spencer has officiated in the capacity of Lord Chamberlain, and the Earl Fortescue as Lord Steward of her Majesty's Household. Soon after her Majesty's arrival, and before the re ception of the company, the scholars of the mathematical school at Christ's Hospital were admitted, each scholar carrying before him either a chart or a drawing. These passed into the presence of her Majesty: who was graciously pleased to inspect the productions of the boys, and to express her approbation of their execution. The boys having retired from the Queen's presence, returned through the midst of the company in the state rooms, still carrying their charts and drawings, and left the Palace. The drawing-room commenced with the reception of the diplomatic corps, and at the hears of the foreign Ministers appeared the Count de St. Aulaire, the French Ambassador. His Excellency wore the order of the Legion of Honour ; the Countess de St. Aulaire was not present, but the Countess Dietrichst wof the Austrian Ambassador, and several other the ladies ife of different Ministers, were present. Turkish Minister, was present, for the first time at a p ublic court. . Lady Palmerston attended in t he diplomatic circle to The Princess Callimaki, wife o f the introduce to the Queen Mrs. Bancroft, wife of the American Minister, and some oth er Ministers ladies, who were presented for the first time. After the reception of the diplomatic corps the gene ral company were admitted to-pay their respects to their Sovereign. The attendance was moat brilliant, and the costumes of the ladies were of great beauty, elegance, and splen dour, of every variety . of colour and texture, and as the salon of the Sovereign is the truest index of the prevailing mode,it may not be uninteresting to state that figured silks and satins predominated much over those of a single colour, and had a very rich effect. Even velvet suffered by, the comparison with some of these most beautiful fabrics. The dress itself was often of lace, or some other light t material over satin ; but it is in the train—that especial characteristic of the court dress—that the opportunity for the display of the choicest manufacture of the country occurs. One of the exceptions to silk, satin, and velvet, was Lady Frances Sandon, whose train was of silver tissue shot with green, and had an effect at once both magnificent and brilliant. Another lady had a train of purple and gold tissue, which was also very beautiful. Among the velvet trains those of the Baroness Brunnow and the Countess Dietrichstein, the one of ruby-coloured velvet with a deep and very elegant border embroidered in silver,- and the other of scarlet velvet, with a magnifi cent deep bordering of gold, were pre-eminent for their effect. The young ladies who were to be presented, generally appeared in some simple colour, trimmed merely with a ruche or artificial flowers. Among the dresses, the magnificent point lace dress of the Countess of Dundonald must not pass unnoticed. Indeed, her Ladyship's whole costume had a most striking appear ance. The diamonds with which she was adorned were placed on bright green leaves, both in the stomacher and in the wreath on the head, and it is impossible to exaggerate the agreeable and beautiful effect which such an arrangement produced. The Honourable Mrs. Montague was another instance of the mixture of jewels with green leaves with a similar effect. The eisplay of diamonds both on the dresses and on the head were generally very magnificent. Among the more costly and superb jewels may be noticed those worn by the Countess of Ranfurly. Lady Guernsey wore a row of orient pearls of immense value, a bandeau of fine brilliants, and other valuable jewels. The diamonds and costume of Mrs. Samuel Platt were very beautiful. Mrs. C v a o l r u n e e . w T al h l cir Countess her o unterr Marchter w o a r w appeared p r e o ar e s d of in pe a ar v ls er o y f h g a r n e d at some tiara of diamonds. Lady Eleanor Balfour's dress displayed a mass of the most magnificent jewels ; and Mrs. William Stuart wore a necklace of brilliants, with a cross suspended of very large size indeed. But mag nificent as these were, there were no diamonds at the drawing-room at all to equal the necklace worn by the Baroness North ; every stone was in itself a jewel of enormous value. The costumes of the Duchess of Bed .ord, Lady Peel, the. Countess of Jersey, and Lad- Clementine Villiers, the Countess of Clarendon, the C ou ntess of Radnor,' and Lady Palmerston, were re S Ny MARCH 29, 1847. markable for richness and elegance, and for the jewelled ornaments with which they were adorned. Pre-eminent above all the costumes of the court in splendour and beauty, was that of the Queen, who wore a dress of white satin, trimmed with gold lace, most splendidly ornamented with diamonds. Her Majesty also wore a most magnificent train, richly trimmed with gold lace. The Ladies of her Majesty's Court, including the Duchess of Sutherland (Mistress of the Robes), and most of the Ladies of the Bedchamber and the Maids of Honour appeared in dresses of great elegance, and of the most costly description. Among the Ladies presented to her Majesty were— Viscountess Hardinge, Viscountess Falkland, Lady Charlotte Eliot (daughter of the Earl and Countess Minto), Lady Guernsey, Lady Rolfe, Lady Dundonald, Mrs. Rolleston, Miss Hobhouse, Miss Canning (daughter of Sir Stratford Canning), Miss Adam, Miss F. Liddell, Miss Parke, and Miss E. Goulburn. The Duchess of Bedford, the Duchess of St. Albans, the Marchionesses of Ormonde and Cholmondeley, the Countesses Delawarr, Glanville, Morley, Dalhousie, Rosebery, and Ranfurly, the Lady Mayoress, Miss Bur dett Coutts, and a very numerous list of the nobility and gentry were present at the reception. In respect of the gentlemen present, the uniforms presented the usual gay and splendid appearance, covered for the most part with gold embroidery. The Duke of Wellington appeared in his Field-Marshal's uniform. The Illustrious Duke appeared in excellent health. Among the company were—Lord John Russell, Sir Robert Peel, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Earl Grey, Lord Viscount Palmerston, Sir John C. Hobhouse, Earl Clarendon, the Dake of Bedford, the Marquis of Clanri carde, the Earl of Auckland, Mr. Labouchere, Lord Dal housie, Earl Radnor, Lord Dundonald, the Attorney- General, Earl Fitzwilliam, the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs, Lord Duncan, Lord Campbell, Lord Sandon, Mr. Francis Baring, Sir George Grey, Bart.; the Recor der, Sir Wm. Clay, Bart., M.P., Sir Stratford Canning, Dr. Holland, Dr. Billing,.Mr. Gibson Craig, M.P., the O'Conor Don, M.P., Mr. Monckton Milnes, M.P., Mr. Alderman Hughes Hughes, Mr. Dennistoun, M.P., Mr. Cardwell, the Solicitor-General, Eerl of Cardigan, Colo nel Maherly, Captain Polhill, M.P., the Vice-Chancel for Wigram, and the Secretary at War. His Grace the Duke of St. Albans wore his badge, as the Hereditary Grand Falconer of the Crown, suspended from a gold chain round his neck. One of the most beautiful uniforms worn at court was that of a nobleman in the suite of the Austrian Ambas sador, who was habited in the Hungarian costume, richly decorated with precious stones. The other foreign gentlemen present appeared in the different uniforms of their respective countries, enhancing by contrast the ef fect of this most brilliant assemblage, thronged, as it was, with distinguished officers in naval and military service. The company assembled in the drawing-room and Queen Anne's room, the former being appropriated to those having the privilege of the entrée, and the latter to the general company. After the entrée company had paid their respects to the Sovereign, the doors of Queen Anne's room were opera d, and the general company were admitted and passed on to the Throne-room, where her Majesty, ac companied by her Royal Consort, received her distin guished visitors. Her Majesty was surrounded by a brilliant Court, com posed of the Royal Family, the whole of the ladies of the Royal Household, the great officers of State, a number of the Cabinet Ministers, and several of the principal officers of her Majesty's Household. As the ladies passed in succession before the Queen their names were announced to her Majesty by the Lord Chamberlain, and in cases of a first appearance at Court, or on their marriage, had the honour of being presented to her Majesty. Retiring from the R presence by - a different entrance, as usual, in the Throne room from that by which they approached, the corn- parry, after paying their respects to the Sovereign, retired to the drawing-room, portrait gallery, and grand banquet-room; the two former of which, owing to their crowded state, became almost impassable towards the close of the Court. When the whole of the company had passed before the Queen, the doors of the throne-room were closed. Her Majesty and Prince Albert remained a short time longer, and then took their departure from St. James's to Buckingham Palace, escorted, as at their coming, by a party of Life Guards. A guard of honour (Life Guards), accompanied by their band in their state uniforms, with the silver kettle drums displayed, were in the large court-yard of the palace, the band playing a few bars of the national anthem on the guard taking up its position. The band then left for the garden entrance to receive her Majesty with the usual honours on her arrival, after which they rejoined the guard and played some favourite pieces during the reception. In the circle were the French Ambassador, the Rus sian Ambassador, the Austrian Ambassador, the Prus sian Ambassador, the Turkish Ambassador. the Ameri can Minister, the Bavarian Minister, the Peruvian ' Minister, the Neapolitan Minister, the Hanoverian Minister, the Brazilian Minister, the Danish Minister, the Dutch Minister, all the Great Officers of State, the Lord Chancellor (Lord Cottenham), Lord John Russell (First Lord of the Treasury), the Marquis of Lansdowne (the President of the Council), Earl Minto (Privy Seal), the Right lion.

The Queen and Prince Albert appeared on their return in high spirits, and apparently very mu ch amused at something that had occurred, both enjoying a hearty laugh, which tended greatly to increase the enthusiasm with which their departure was greeted. The principal portion of the spectators remained, after the return of the Royal Family to witness the de parture of the company until the last carriage quitted St. James's Palace at s even minutes past four o'clock, when the crowd gradually dispersed. We may avail ourselves of this occasion to announce that an opportunity, by the express command of the Queen, is about to be offered to the public to gaze upon every member of the Royal Family. For a considerable time Winterholten has been engaged in painting what may be denominated a " family group" of the Royal Family, in which picture each of the illustrious group are taken in the size of life. There is also a second picture by the same artist, pre senting a portrait of the Prince of Wales as the Sailor Prince. By command of her Majesty, preparations are being made for the public exhibition of these splendid paint ing s in the great banquetting room at St. James's Palace. The arrangement, we believe, is, that the public shall enter throug h the iron gates, leading from Pall mall to St. James's Park, and so into the corrider and and up the grand staircase, and so on to the banquetting room, from which they will retire by the entrée stair case into the Ambassadors' Court. The approaches to the Palace were admirably and efficiently kept by the new police. Her Majesty's Honourable Corps of Gentlemen at Arms were on duty in the State-rooms. The Queen and Prince Albert, attended by the Royal Suite, afterwards returned to Buckingham Palace. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent was pre vented from attending the drawing-room by a severe the Hon. Charles Grey, and Colonel Bouverie, attended on horseback. Her Majesty, attended by the Duchess of Sutherland, the Lord in Waitinsr, and the Equerry in Waiting, honoured the Italian Opera with her presence on Satur day evening. The Royal Family took their usual airings on Sa turday. Yesterday morning her Majesty and Prince Albert, the Ladies and Gentlemen of the Court, and the Domes tic Household, attended Divine service in the private chapel at Bite kingham Palace. The Rev. Lord Wrio thesley Russell preached the sermon. The Hon. and Rev. C. Leslie C..urtenay officiated at the service. The Queen and Prince Albert visited jier Royal High ness the Duchess of Kent yesterday at Clarence House, St. James's.

A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy the detects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls, a gentleman residing at Worthava, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842, on returning from Harlestone Market to Weybred, where he then re sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill ness of several months' duration, during which period his perfectly con tinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " asr bald as if Ills head had been shaved;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel, then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for his lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was induced to try the effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was used the growth recommenced, and he has now to boast of a very thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this pecUliarity, that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl, the new growth is minty and strong. This fact s;)eaks too strongly for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger. RO VV-LAND'S MACASSAR OIL preserves ard reproduces the Hair; prevents it from falling off or turning Grey; Changes Grey Hair to its Original Colour; frees it from Scurf and Dandriff, and makes it beautifully soft and curly. 1, „ 4 .
