ROBERTS, RANELAGH-STREET, LIVERPOOL. " Hale, near Liverpool, December 10th, 1844. "SIR,—I write to inform you of the great benefit I have re ceived from taking Locock's Wafers, which you recommended to me. I was so much oppressed at my chest that, when I lay down, a coughing fit came on with such violence that I have often thought I should not live to see the morning ; but now I can sleep a whole night without coughing, after taking only two boxes of Wafers. (Signed) " J. HAYES." "TO MR. P. ROBERTS, RANELAOH-STREET. " Parliament-street, Liverpool, Jan. Ist, 1845. " SIR,—It is with much pleasure I bear testimony to the ex traordinary powers of Locock's Pulmonic Wafers. I had been troubled with a cough and hoarseness .for nearly two years, without relief, when, by your recommendation, I was induced to try Locock's Wafers, the effects of which were soon v i s i ble, for one large box (25. 9d.) has quite cured me. I have since recommended them to several of my friends, and they have also experienced the greatest relief from them.—l remain, yours, ever grateful, " JOHN WILLIAMS." The particulars of many hundred Cures may be had from every Agent throughout the Kingdom, and on the Continent. DR. LOCOCK'S WAFERS give instant xelief, and a rapid cure of Asthmas, Consumptions, Coughs, Colas, and all Dis eases of the Breath and Lungs. To SINGERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS they are invaluable, as in a few hours they remove all Hoarseness, and increase the Power and Flexibility of the Voice. They have a most pleasant taste.

Secondly—Selling on similar terms of PROMPT PAYMENT for all Goods, on or before delivery. Thirdly—Charging the LEAST PROFIT upon the Goods, and Marking them in Plain English. Fourthly—Giving every advantage for MONEY that any rea sonable man can look for. It is a recognised principle of Trade that the fewer hands through which any article is made to pass so much the better it is for the consumer, because the article can be brought into general use with the least burden of Profits. ECONOMY AND CONVENIENCE should be combined ; under these circumstances, and at the request of numerous Purchasers who have frequently BOUGHT AND APPRECIATED MY MATERIALS, but have found great difficulty in getting them made to their satis faction, I am induced to add the TAILORING, whereby the difficulty will be removed, and a very considerable Saving rea lized by GENTLEMEN PURCHASING their OWN CLOTH.

AND J. RANKIN, UNION FOUNDRY, MANCHESTER-STREET, LIVERPOOL THE DECIDED ADVANTAGES OF THIS MACHINE OVER ANY OTHER ARE Ist. That it will clean, in the most perfect manner, the foulest and smuttiest Wheat, and render the same, once passed through this Screen, clean Grain. 2d. It does this much quicker than it has hitherto taken other machines to do it in an inferior manner. 3d. It takes much less power than ANY OTHER MACHINE of the kind. The saving to Millers in this particular is very important, as it enables them to run (with the same power) ,five, where they have only been able to run four pairs of Stones, which is a saving of twenty-five per cent., by enabling them to grind one-fourth part more in the same space of time, besides cleaning the Wheat for the whole perfectly. 4th. Its durability i s a great advantage. The recurring ex penses of repairs, (so heavy in other machines, where wire and brushes are constantly required to be replaced,) by using this machine areavoided and saved, as, to quote from Mr. Jackson's testimony, " There is nothing (in this maerine) to adjust, repair, or re new. " The saving in this particular must be of great consequence. sth. There Is no waste whatever in cleaning wheat by this ma chine, and the only difference in the weight of any giver. quantity of wheat, before and after cleaning, is precisely the amount of dirt, smut, and other foul matter, that is blown out at the top of the machine, without carrying with it a single kernel of wheat, or even those parts of kernels that have been previously and unavoidably broker by the thrashing machine. In confirmation of the above statement, it is very gratifying to be able to refer to the following parties, (in this neighbour hood,) at whose respective Mills the Ma c hi nes have already been fixed, and may be seen at work : Mr. Thomas Jackson, Oil-street Steam Mills, Liverpool.

I think it in gratitude due to you to say, in less than an hour from the time I applied the Lotion. I felt "e. the most pleasant and indescribable relief.

Fortunately your remedy was made Known to me, or I might have been to this day confined to my bed. After a close appli cation of four days, my troublesome companion began to dis appear; in a week I was capable of inAalking about my ro om, and by another week's perseverance the use of your Medi cine was enabled to leave London.

ROBERT HUGHES. E. G. WILLOUGHBY. W. WILLIAMS MORTIMER TO THE EDITOR OF TH COURIER. LIVERPOOL SIR, —As AGENT in LIVERPOOL to the WEST of ENGLAND FIRE-OFFICE, my attention has been directed to the following paragraph in the Standard of Mi. THE WEST OF " CHARGE AGAINST THE SERVANTS Or ENGLAND INSURANCE COMPANY. A serious charge came before Mr. Rushton, in the course of the morning, implicating the conduct of the men in charge of one of the engines belong ing to the above company. From what fell from Mr. Dowling, who appeared in support of the c h arge, i t appears that the drivers of the West of England engines, with the ass i s t an t s engaged about them, sometimes interrupt the operations of the regular fire-brigade o n occas i ons w h ere their'united services should rather be called forth. On Saturday morning, there was a fire in Blackstock-street, at which the men attached to the brigade were engaged. One of the West of England engines drove up and planted their branch hose full against one of the men who was standing at a window_ . . the fire which was raging in another part of the burning premises, Upon one of the brigade, Serjeant Ilassal, interfering, he was knocked down and his ancle was dislocated. They were also charged with damaging an engine. The offenders will probably be summoned before the bench." In justice to the firemen of the West of England, who are entirely under my control and authority, I feel bound to pro test against the whole of the above statement. I need scarcely call your attention to the injustice of forming' a conclusion upon an ex-parte statement made by Mr. Dowling', and which has as yet been followed by no summons or intimation to our men to appear. Any statement made by Mr. Dowling, as an aspect, but when he speaks in .)e'd character a 01.1“ IL Is quite another matter. If the police venture to bring the matter to an issue, I shall be prepared toshow that every part of the preceding statement is untrue, that the whole matter arncp frnn, +h. at use irum tne aggression of the fire-police, and that that conduct was only part of a system followed by the police with a view to suppress the West of England engine. lam in possession of correspondence from Mr. Linton Hughes, the servant of the Watch Committee, in which they refuse the West of England access to the plugs, upon the ground that it is desirable that the fire-police alone should have the charge of the extieguisbriwilt of f a rm if the authorities of the town are really of opi n ion th a t thi s is expe. man+ a 1... 12 8 me power of enforcing their views ? Can any one doubt that 14 0 they refrain from doing so because the legislature would think 16 0 with the public, that an office, which insured a very large pro -10 6 portion of property in Liverpool, and which has kept an esta -14 0 blishment for the protection of that property for five and 16 0 twenty years, has a right to continue to protect itself, in spite 16 6 of the petty jealousy of local authorities ? I could produce 16 6 testimony after testimony, to show that the activity of our 24 0 firemen may put the police to shame that they are almost 24 0 always first at fires, and that they behave best when they get 2 4 0 there. I could enumerate to you numbers of instances of ill :. pt g. feeling shown by the fire police to us, for which I blame not the .. d. men personally, but their superiors, who think, but think very 14 0 falsely, that by such proceedings they will put us down. I can 16 0 produce respectable witnesses in abundance to show that, on _ _ • 18 0 tins very occasion, the conduct of our men was exemplary, 20 0 while that of the police was so shameful as to excite the indig -12 0 nation of all the bystanders. In fine, lam ready to meet any 14 0 charge which may be brought against our establishment, if it 18 0 is fairly tried ; and upon that subject I will make one com -20 0 ment. This question is not a new one. Similar complaints have been more than once before Mr. Rushton. He has taken a strong, and, I think, a very mistaken view, of the claims of thepolice. I do not hesitate to say that he entertains very strong .ozen. prejudices against me and my men. If lam not misinformed, he expressed such prejudices yesterday in very strong lan guage. lam not imputing to Mr. Rushton any misconduct or a. d . any wrong motive in the formation of his opinions ; but Ido 210 mean to say, as strongly as lam able, that he has prejudged 4 6 this matter, and that he is filled with prejudices which utterly a 6 unfit him for the trial of this issue, if brought into court, or 6 o any other between the same parties, and which, I may add, 6 0 would be abundantly sufficient to support a challense to 14 7 0 juryman. 4 6 1 would, therefore, i n conc l us i nn. that, as ther 2e are 4 6 many other magistrates in Liverpool as competent to decide 6 0 this matter as Mr. Rushton, it would be both good taste and gentlemanly feeling in him to retire from it altogether, and The leave it to be so decided. I trust that you will see that I am making and intending no imputation nn Mr R.,.}...-w. . I ...... simply saying that he is in the position of a juryman n'lio has tried former causes between the same parties en the same ques tion, and who has of necessity become a prejudiced and objec tionable person.
