PRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, begs particu s.l • larly to call the attention of his Friends and the Public to the undermentioned selection of Preparations, compound ed at his Laboratory, a trial of any of which will convince the most sceptical of their decided superiority. _ _ . THE FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro perties of Sarsaparilla Root. To persons, therefore, who, from various causes, would experience great - inconvenience, or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the Compound Decoction, the Fluid Extract, which possesses the advantages of portability and of keeping in any climate, will be found a most desirable mode of employing this much esteemed Medicine. _ Two teaspoonsful of the Fluid Extract, put into a wine glass full of water, makes a preparation equal in strength to half a pint of the Compound Decoction, formerly prescribed by the London, Edinburgh. and Dublin Pharmacopoeias. The diseases in which it has proved most beneficial are those of the Skin ; such as Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive Diseases, Secondary Symptoms, &c., arising from a diseased state of the system at large. For removing Blotches, Pim ples, &c. from the Face, this Medicine has no superior. The extensive use and high reputation of this preparation has led to numerous imitations, disguised by the name of Syrup, Essences, &c. The whole medicinal virtues of the Sarsaparilla consist in its extractive matter, and it possesses no real property in the form of essence, while the Syrup is injurious to the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation. PRIESTLEY'S SEIDEITZ POWDERS Which approach nearer than anything yet discovered to the Chalybeate Waters of Germany. The style of pre paring PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS is peculiar to himself, and combines scientific skill with great .accu racy ; and though numbers of people unacquainted with the business, and others, have of late years attemptedimita tions, they have invariably been found to be spurious com pounds, neither possessing the agreeable flavour nor the me dicinal properties of the Seidlitz Waters. Sold in Boxes, 2s. each, containing twenty-four Powders, to make one dozen tumbler glasses, and in Tin Cases, 10s. each. The latter are put up in a very eligible form for ex portation, or to use at sea, and will keep any length of time In all climates. VEGETABLE HAIR OIL Is allowed to be an excellent discovery for invigorating and renovating the human Hair. It eradicates the Scurf, nou rishes the Hair, prevents its falling off, produces a most beau tiful natural curl, and gives to artificial Hair a peculiar soft ness of texture and luxuriant appearance.

The CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM is a gentle sti mulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life, and have fallen into a state of chronic debility. In such persons the appetite Is generally defective, and the relish of life is al most subdued ; they are wanting in that activity of mind and energy of conduct which their affairs require ; and partly from conscious weakness, partly from excessive apprehen sions, areliable to sink despondently into a premature grave. It is for these that Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, parti cularly designed their CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM. Whatever enriches the blood, without inflaming it ; what ever braces without stimulating too violently the nervous system ; whatever frees and disburdens the viscera and other important organs ; whatever resolves obstructions, and throws off viscid humours; whatever strengthens the general habit, and brings back the muscular fibres to their natural and healthy tone ; whatever is calculated to produce, in a considerable degree, all or any of these effects, must be, under certain mo difications and restrictions, equally adapted to every species of decay. Hence, though the Cordial Balm of Syriacum makes a direct attack upon the many-headed hydra in one quarter only, it will be found to apply indirectly or collate rally, to almost every other ; in short, the debility of nature can be completely reinstated by this excellent medicine, for its reanimating powers exceed almost credibility ; its fine rich stimulating balsamic stomach qualities—its purification of the blood—and, above all, the complete invigorator of the nervous system, whereby the whole faculties become re stored to their proper power and functions. and the fallen fabric of life is raised up to beauty, consistency, and dura tion, upon the ruins of an emaciated and premature decay, to sound and pristine health. As nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution, so there is nothing more generally acknow ledged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward wastings, loss of appetite, indigestion, depression of spirits, trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs, obstinate cough, shortness of breath, or consumptive habits. It possesses wonderful effi cacy in all cases of syphilis, fits, head-ache, weakness, heaviness and lowness of spirits, dimness of sight, confused thoughts, wandering of the mind, vapours, and melancholy ; and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually rernot ed by its use. Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men or women, are under its immediate influence. Old coughs, asthmas, and consumptive habits are soon relieved, and speedily cured. Poverty of blood, and emaciated limbs will, ere long meet the happiest change ; the chill, watery fluid will become rich and balsamic, and the limbs be covered with flesh, firm and healthy. _ _ Sold in Bottles, price u s, each, or the quantity of four in one Bottle for 335., by which one Ils.

"TAKING CARE OF THE MINUTES."—A recent American paper narrates the following instance of the " improvement of time : "—" A train of cars ran of the truck at Norwich, Conn., a few days ago, which occasioned some delay. Dur ing the interim a lady and gentleman jumped out of the cars, went to the nearest justice, and were married. They re turned in time for the cars, and resumed their journey." Old Mr. Lefevre, the father of the present Speaker of the House of Commons, and the principal founder of Currie and Co.'s house on Cornhill, illustrated this theory of banking one day to a customer in a significant manner. The customer in question was one of those men who find it very convenient to have bad memories. His account was almost always over-drawn, and whenever spoken to upon the subject, his answer was the same—he really had forgotten how it stood. At last Mr. Lefevre, who had watched his opportunity, caught him one day at the counter, and said to him, " Mr. you and I must understand one anoth er something . better than we seem to do. I am afraid you don't know what banking is : give me leave to tell you—it's my business to take care of your money; but I find you are always taking care of mine. Now, that is not banking, Mr. must be the other way ; I'm the banker, not you ;—you uo . ; I'm sure yo u d o !"— Banks derstaml me now, Mr. and Bankers, by Daniel Hardcastle, jun. Tnt BALL THAT KILLED NELSON. —The musket-ball which robbed England of ber great naval commander, the im mortal Nelson (says the Bath Her a ld), i s now in possession of the Rev. F. W. Baker, of Bathwick. It was fired it seems (contrary to the received account), at random from the top of the Redoubtable, by a French soldier named Robert Guil lemarde, who escaped unwounded, and when his ship struck was taken on board the Victory..' The fatal bullet was not discovered till the Victory arrived at Spithead. It bad struck the fore part of the hero's epaulette, and entered his left shoulder. It then descended obliquely into the thorax, fracturing the second and third ribs, and after penetrating the left lobe of the lungs and dividing a large branch of t he pulmonary artery, it entered the left side of the spines Pa_!!': through the muscles of the back and lodged therein.. r . 11 ,2" ti u le siderable portion of the gold lace, pad, and silkacco d of bed to it ; epaulette, with a piece of coat, were found been inserted the gold lace was as firmly fixed as if it had into the metal while in a state of fusion.. nd silver, and The ball, together with the lace, &c., was mounted in crystal presented by Captain Hardy to Mr. (a i e death we a -n , w los fterwards Sir W.) Beattie, the surgeon of the Victory, nounced some time since, by Lieutenant H os k en , R. N., arrived at this port, from The transatlantic steam-ship Great Western, commanded New York, on Wednesday morning. It was announced some time ago, that in order to accommodate the .Liverpool trade, it had been determined that this fine vessel should make alternate voyages between New York and Bristol, and New York and Liverpool. She accordingly left New York on her first trip to this port, on the 28th ult. and has made her pas sage in twelve days and a half. She passed Cape Clear on Monday last, at half-past three A. N. This is the shortest passage ever made from New York, though the vessel went greatly to the southward to avoid the ice, thereby increasing her distance from the direct line, by 200 miles. Her average speed was a fraction less than eleven knots per hour, in nau tical miles. The ship made 293 knots from noon of the sth, to noon of the 6th instant. The time by the chronometer occupied in making the passage, that is, in steaming from the Wharf at New York, to the north-west Light-ship, where she stopped to wait for the flood-tide, was 12 days 7i hours. The Great Wester n h as brought seventy-five passengers, whose names are subjoined. Amongst the number, it will be seen, is the recently appointed consul for the United States at this port, James Haggerty, Esq. In the money market confidence appeared to be reviving, and the writers thereon, speak with hop e an d con fid ence. The new tariff of_Sir Robert Peel, which opens a prospect of the admission of many articles of American produce hitherto prohibited, and the mission of Lord Ashburton, which holds out a prospect that the differences between the United States and this country will soon be amicably adjusted having con tributed greatly to this desirable result. There was a hope also, that matters had arrived at that crisis when they must mend from the impossibility of their being worse ; and thus, for some weeks past, the money and stock market bad ex hibited greater buoyancy, and a stronger confidence was every where manifested. The Banks of New York are stated to be at ease entirely, and withal!, exceedingly strong, money being plentiful. Exchange on London was 107 to 1071 city bills : on France, 537 to 5 374: Amsterdam, 39 to 39} : Hamburg, 35 to 351, an d B remen, 751 to 76. There had been a fair demand for cotton, and a good amount of business had been done. Prices remained firm at former quotations. The transactions of the week amounted to about 5,000 bales, the prices being for Upland and Florida sto 9i cents, Mobile 10, Orleans 6to 91. The arrivals of the week had been 7,996 bls. Total import from the Ist to the 25th April 34,152. Total export in the same time 12,837. Export from United States since Ist September last, 995,587. Same time last year, 764,707. Same time year before 1,044,967. In the southern ports generally, the market was heavy, and the amount of business small. Considerable sales of flour have been made, Genessee sold a t s i x dollars, and some inferior, qualities at five dollar. 871 cents. Troy and Michigan were held at six dollars ; Ohio, five dollars 871 cents ; Southern, five dollars 874 cents ; Bal timore City Mills, five dollars 75 cents. From the West the accounts all concur in representing the growing crop of wheat as very promising, and very large in respect to the quantity of acres sown The Secretary of the Treasnry had advertised for " three and a half millions of the twelve million loan," to be opened on the first instant, and the money to be paid in three months by instalments. It was said, that the Treasury were about to authorise an agent to proceed to Europe to negociate the whole amount. The wants of the government appear to be particularly urgent. Some surprise is expressed that the European capitalists have not, considering the resources of the United States, eagerly availed themselves of the opportunity of investing money to such apparent advantage. A writer in one of the American journals thus accounts for the apathy on the subject. "We can only explain it by the humiliating reflectisn, that the dis honour which some of the States have cast upon their own ob ligations, is immeasurably reflected upon those of the Union, and that, as we have indeed heard, is no uncommon expres sion of opinion, especially in continental Europe, capitalists there will not trust a partnership while the bonds of some of the individual partners are under protest. To provide for all exigencies, and for ordinary expenditure, with interest of the loans, a new tariff will be necessary. The subject has been but slightly broached in the legislature, where it is evident it will be violently resisted. The banks throughout the south and west appear also to have determined in good earnest to resume specie payments ; and though this may cause some local distress, the country generally will be greatly benefited. Nothing further had transpired touching the tenor of Lord Ashburton's instructions. He was still in correspondence with the government of Maine. On this subject we extract the following:— " It is understood that Lord Ashburton has by the last steamer, if he did not have them with him, plenary power to settle the N.E. boundary question. Mr. Webster is unwil ling to make any proposition that does not meet the concur rence of Massachusetts and Maine. The governors of these states have therefore been consulted, and special sessions of the legislature have been invited. The Governor of Maine, the state most interested, will soon convoke the legislature in an extra session. The Kennebec Journal seems to hint, that an arrangement could easily be made which would be beneficial to both Maine and New Brunswick. ' Our neigh bours want a passage by land,' it says ; we want one by water. Both could be accommodated without much incon venience to either. If the right spirit prevails, the matter may easily be settled to the advantage of all concerned. if it is not, the surveys must go on, and arbitration follow, against which Maine has already protested.' Maine, no doubt, for the free navigation of St. John's, will give afree passage over the disputed territory. The province of New Brunswick, however, will hardly consent to that." The Lieutenant-governor. of New Brunswick, Sir W. W. J. Colebrooke, had issued a proclamation, stating that it had been announced to him that large quantities of timber had been cut in the disputed territory within the last year, in vio lation of the prohibition announced in former proclamations, and publicly announcing, that if any of the said timber should be brought into the river St. John, it would be liable to sei zure. Havana dates to the Bth ultimo had reached New Orleans. The papers contained no political news. It was said that the Mexican government had proposed to make a railway across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, to connect the Pacific and At lantic Oceans. As the distance is 200 miles, the expense, it is presumed, will be greater than the Mexican government can undertake. The Havana markets continue dull, with low e who I prices. LIST OF PASSENGERS L.

It is our melancholy duty to record the most fearful and fatal steam-boat explosion which has ever taken place on the waters of the Chesapeake. The new and splendid steam boat Medora, built for the line between this city and Norfolk, was yesterday rendered a wreck by the explosion of her steam-boiler, attended by a fearful destruction of human life. The Medora was just completed, and preparatory to being turned out from the hands of the ma c hi n i s t, a number of per sons were invited to go in her on an ex p er i mental trip. The day being pleasant, it is supposed that p ro b a b ly one hundred or more were on board, including some of the directors of the steamboat company and their friends, and a number . of the hands engaged in finishing the vessel, putting in the machi nery, &c., and otherwise connected with the construction or sailing of the boat. Soon after three o'clock, p.m., the boat was about to start from the wharf of the engine-builder, Mr. John Watchman, on the south side of the basin, on the proposed t r ip. A gen tleman who was on boa r d informs us, that the engine had only made the second revolution, in order to back the Me dora from the wharf, when the boiler exploded with a loud no ise, carrying upwards a considerable portion of the upper deck and those upon it, and blowing the smoke stacks high into the air. The main force of the explosion was almost exclusively towards the head of the boat, and the portions of the boat around the boiler were torn to pieces. The boiler it s elf, an immense one of iron, was thrown crosswise on the deck. _ The boat was instantly enveloped in a cloud of scalding s t e am, which was inhaled by some with fatal consequences, while others suffered externally in their persons from its effects. Our informant was in the after part of the boat where the steam had no effect. He says that several per_ sons were forced overboard, and that one of them was drowned. The boat immediately settled down in the water, until her hull rested on the bottom of the river. , While In the centre and forward part of the boat there was a fearful destruction of life and limb. Some of those on board were blown high in the air, and fell on shore, in the water, and on the boats lying near by. Others were crushed with physi the splintered timbers, others scalded with the steam , while i those below the decks, not having time to escape; were either suffocated by' the steam or drowned when the boat sunk . ured, and dd so or little dying. When we reached the scene of desolation, we found a large number of persons, among whom were several cians, busily engaged in endeavouring to assist th S . 0 . great persons Th on board, that was the ctahrerycinognfauwsiao3n' thosethat who were prevailed, There ate no doubt as to the number and names of the wa s known no complete account could be obtained. _ some who were on board, whos e loss will only be known by in Captain g S o ü b t o t i o l n e r , w w h h o en h i a t d e c x o p m l o m d e a d n . d of H t e h e w b a boat a r a t their not returning to their homes. was stand in the head, and it was very doubtful Mr. John C.
