" 0, Blessed Health ! thou art above all gold and treasure; 'tis thou who enlargeth the soul, and openest all its powers to receive instruction and to 7 elish virtue. He that has thee, has little more to wish . for ; and he that ' o wretched as to want thee, wants every thing with thee." STERNE. As a preserver of Health. d a gentle yet efficacious Remedy for Indigestion, and all sorders originating from a morbid action of the Stomach d Liver, STIRLING'S PILLS have met with more gener approbation than any Medicine yet dis covered, requiring restraint of diet, or confinement, during their use. They 'e mild in their operation, and comfortable in their effect nd may be taken at any age or time, without danger from cold or wet. They speedily remove the causes that produce disease, and restore health and vigour to the whole system. For FEMALES they are invaluable, as they re move obstructions, promote a regular circulation, and improve the complexion, giving the skin a beautiful, clear, and bloom ing appearance, which, by their use, may be retained to the latest period of life. Also for CHILDREN they are the best Medicine that can be used, as they expel worms, and carry off crudities, &c., from the Stomach and Intestines; by which they prevent illness, and lay the foundation of goad health for future years. FREE LIVERS, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddiness, Drowsiness, Irregularity of the Bowels, Nervous Irritability, &c., should never be without them; for by their prompt administration on the first symptoms of illness, Fits, Apoplexy, Gout, and many other dangerous complaints, may be prevented or cured. They have been found highly benefi cial during a course of Sea Bathing; and are particularly re commended to Officers of the Army and Navy, and Persons going Abroad, as a preventive of those diseases so frequently arising from Heat and change of Climate.

Extract of a Letter from Mr. R. ibert Calvert, Stokesley, dated September 3rd, _ To Professor HOLLOWiT SIR,—Mr. Thompson, Nationa choolmaster of this Town, desires me to send you the part' . lars of his Son, who had been bad for three years and a ha. , and has received the greatest benefit by the use of your P' s and Ointment• He is of a scro. fulous constitution : a pi risy had left a large collection of matter in the chest ; sth' eventually formed a passage through the wales of the chest, nd ended in three fistulous sores which discharged large col ities of pus, when he was induced to try your Pills and 01 ment ; at this date he was apparently in a dying condition he stomach rejected every thing it took. Your Pills and intment had the effect of completely curing both the con , and stomach affections, his strength and flesh are also restored, his appetite keen, and digestion good. There is every prospect that a little further continuance of your me dicines will finish the cure. (Signed) ROBT. CALVERT. The " Mofussilite" Newspaper, published at 3fetrut, has, on the 15th October, 1847, copied an article from the " Benares Recorder," of which the following is an Extract : "The Prince of MAHARAJAH BiSSONATH SING 11, VIIIO was temporarily residing at Chittercote, was suddenly taken ill with Spasmodic Colic, and during his illness His Highness often asked for Holloway's Pills and Ointment, as he had heard much of their virtues, but none could be obtained in the neighbour hood, and Professor Holloway, no doubt, unfortunately loses a certificate which would have graced and dignified his list of cures." The native Princes are now using Holloway's celebrated Pills and Ointment in preference to every other medicine, they being so wonderfully efficacious in the cure of diseases in India.

ON THE STRATIFICATION AROUND LIVER POOL, IN RESPECT TO THE PROBABILITY OF PRODUCING WATER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, SIR, —Much controversy has hitherto taken place upon this important subject; gentlemen of the first talent have been engaged in the cause ; and a parliamentary campaign has ended with procuring a bill for bringing a supply of water from Rivington Pike, in pipes of 44 inches diame ter, a distance of 24 miles; the project will necessarily be attended with complicated and vastly expensive arrange ments with owners of property, surface and mineral, and with numerous private individuals having claims already vested in the waters used for the supplying mills and other machinery ; these pipes, being for a considerable distance laid upon surfaces liable to be disturbed by the working of the mines below, will increase the difficulties, and will render the aggregate expense altogether beyond the reach of calculation. The district around Liverpool is signally deficient in running streams or surface waters, and, therefore, the supply has hitherto been chiefly drawn from shafts sunk into the red sandstone, but the produce of which was, during the discussion in parliament, pronounced not only inadequate, but that the, red sandstone did not con tain sufficient water which at anv calculable cost could be neighbourhood ; and, therefore, an enormous capital must necessarily be raised to carry out the Rivington Pike project Before proceeding to explain my views of the merits of th e question, I will take leave to quote from the speech Town Council proceedings of the statement closely t upon what I consider to be the true condition of th a se; and which will serve the purpose of introducing the following observations It appears that Mr. Holme was the writer of a pamphlet addressed to the proprietors of the water works, wherein he argues in favour of procuring water from the red sandstone instead of seeking it from distant surface feeders. He says— " When we erected our new premises, in Benson-street, we put down a 50-horse condensing engine, and to supply that and our general establishment we sunk a well; this well is just the surface w !nty of water The bottom of the lodge is 114 feet from t airfitce ; and sect water that it required all the force of th with an 11-inch pump, to enable us to excavate our lodge entire cost of sinking this well was .e 232. Our consumption is very great, supplying a 50-horse condensing engine and 30 immense tanks and y 12 hours we have no use-and this is daily occurring close fo a double row of cottages, inhabited by working men, who are, no doubt, paying for their water. So plentiful is our supply that on one occasion, working the engine at full speed from three in the morning till nine at night, we only lowered the water 17 feet, '"'P' n ' " `"` 6 ' ` 1 """"'Y .".

All coal strata are intersected more or less by dykes, or faults, which have the effect of severing or discontinuing the partings, or cells, which contain and convey the feeders of water from place to place, and assuming that certain portions of the red sandstone are close, and cer tain other parts porous, as represented in the profile— and assuming also that a dyke, or fissure, intersects and distorts the strata, then does it most naturally follow that the waters in the district A cannot pass into that of B, and it is still more difficult for those of B to pass into the district A, which I believe to be the state of matters in stanced by Mr. S. Holme in his particular case. If, then, each district, or area, is circumscribed by faults, and the waters of other districts thereby prevented from flow ing to some given sinking; it depends entirely upon cir cumstance and experiment, whether a given sinking, has fallen upon a district containing an extensive area, or the reverse, and when the immense area in question comes to be considered, how very inadequate are the trials hitherto made, wiih a view of procuring a supply of water. In the selection of a position for making any future trials, much must of course depend upon the desirable ness of certain localities, and taking it for granted that the upper waters will greatly discharge themselves into the Mersey, as remcrked by Mr. Holme, it would tend to point out to the experienced eye the lower levels as more desirable than the upper districts, as the sinkings would, in that case, be less deep and expensive, even although . . the water had again to be raised to some convenient eleva tion f.-r the supply of the town. With respect to the expense of carrying out sinkings, attendant with water, to the depth of 100 fathoms and upwards, much, very much, depends upon the work being laid out upon principles of science and practical experi ence ; for wanting these, the management of heavy columns of pumps and their concomitant machinery is attended with ruinous expense, whilst in the hands of experienced practitioners, such operations arc only those of ordinary private adventure. It is not for me to enter into the consideration of legal difficulties, or of contracts which are said to exist, in pur suance of the Rivington Pike scieme, but I humbly sub mit that the main question should be decided upon its merits, viz., whether if the necessary supply can be ob tained from the sandstone, it will not be done infinitely cheaper than by the project of the Pike ? One thing is unquestionable, that the waters from the rock are much more salubrious than those from the surface, since in their nature they are always loaded with vegetable and other impurities ; redolent of ague, fever, and the doctors only know what beside.

MONDAY EVENINC There is nothing very darkening in the political horizon just now, and the talked-of intervention of France in the affairs of Italy seems to create very little sensation. Commercially, with the exception of the report of the Chinese markets, which it is expected are only temporarily unfavourable, our prospects are further clearing up. Be sides the good news from India, the demand for English fabrics at the Leipsic fair augurs well for an in creasing demand in that quarter. On Saturday Con sols had advanced about two points on the week, and closed at 89f to for money, and 891 for 13th February. In SIIARES we have had another rising market, on the week. _ Advices from New York speak of a continually advan cing Flour market during the three weeks previous to the departure of the packet, to the extent of 374 cents v- bar rel ; and we refer our readers to the commercial extracts in our American intelligence for the latest quOtations for this and other descriptions of breadstuffs. Shipments from the northern ports of America hod almost entirely ceased, so that with the arrival of those cargoes at present at sea we shall cloe our account until the re-opening of the navigation of t.ie rivers, which usually takes place about the latter end of March. In fact, the price of Flour quoted on the 9th instant in New York is so little below its market value in Liverpool as at once to check all tendency to speculation. Meanwhile the exports of grain from the Baltic have also ceased ; but from the nearer ports of Europe, in France and the Mediterranean, we may have a little ,more, but not any very large quan tity. We have no change to report at present in the Liverpool trade as the result of this intelligence, nor do we anticipate any immediate alteration either here or elsewhere, as millers and dealers seem determined to " bide their time," whatever the consequences February release from a state of bond ther the excess of demand or supply duce a rising or a falling mark tation to the imports is calculat from becoming farti th . eert viously expressed our - opinion that when the became flooded by the large amount of breadstu would go down the redu, encroached la, lave taken pi pon the ma degree to our p - revioukopinion, atthou CAUTION.

Price, Wavertre A FORTUNATE PURCHASE.—It was only very lately that a gentleman journeying to the north stopped for a day at a provincial town where he heard a bellman an nounce the sale of some books that day in the market place : he gave no further thought to it, but chance led him subsequently to the very spot where the auctioneer, with a few scores of books on a table before him, was do ing his very best to coax the rustic crowd of idlers around him to purchase them. There was nothing in their out ward appearance to recommend them, for they were very time-stained and rusty old-looking volumes ; but, as the stranger was passing by, a lot of five books was on the point of being knocked down for half-a-crown; he bid, from the mere fun of the thing, another sixpence, the hammer instantly fell, and he bore off with him, the rub bish, as it seemed, to his inn, at the cost of ree shil lings, and for which he was offered in London a few weeks afterwards thirty pounds. He subsequently ascertained that, if he had bought the whole of the lots when they were first placed on the table, he would have realised very nearly one thousand pounds by his bargain. They had, in fact, been purchased many generations since by a family in the town, once of great opulence; but which, in the course of time, had died off, and the property by degrees had glided away, until a widow alone was left with very straitened means; and it was the clearing out, at death, of the rubbish of the old and dilapidated house she had so long lived in, that supplied the traveller with his so cheaply acquired treasures.—church of Engl'uJ quar terly, and the manner in WI ter.
