T JONES, WATERLOO HOUSE, CHURCH-STREET, having completed his Purchases for the ensuing Season, begs to intimate that, in consequence of the Great Failures of eminent Manufacturers, owing to the unprecedented scarcity of money operating most seriously in reducing the prices of Manufactured Goods, J. J. has availed himself of this advan tage, (his purchases, as usual, being for CASH PAYMENTS,) which will enable him, consequently, to offer such inducements in style, quality, and prices, as are unequalled. Amongst the large Lots for SALE are FRENCH AND BRITISH MERINOS, IN ALL COLOURS.

TERMS OF BUSINESS : GOOD ARTICLES FOR READY MONEY, DECIDEDLY CHEAP. SHAWLS, MANTLES, TARTANS. THIS Establishment was opened in the year 1830, for the exclusive sale pf every description of SHAWLS, MANTLES, and SCOTTISH CLAN TARTANS, and has been distinguished above all others, during seventeen years, for the beauty and magnitude of the Stock kept, as well as the extreme moderation of price charged for each article. It is the Pro prietor's aim, at the opening of each season, to present to his numerous customers a superb assemblage of all that is FASHIONABLE and RARE in this elegant department of LADIES' COSTUME, and how far he has succeeded in this the Ladies of Liverpool and surrounding country will be able to bear testimony, it being his conviction that they have fully appreciated the Establishment from the greatly increasing trade demanding an extensive enlargement of the Premises from time to time, and from the fact of so many recommenda tions proceeding from Families here to others residing in Ches ter, Manchester, Preston, and other more distant localities of Lancasbire and Yorkshire, who, from the facilities afforded by railway travelling, make all their purchases now regularly at this Establishment, because FASHION and ECONOMY are here combined. The Proprietor is desirous of calling special attention to the CLOAK and MANTLE Department, which since the late extensive alterations on the Premises, is now conducted under the able superintendence of a Female, whose experience in Paris and London fully qualifies her to take the entire direction of it; and Ladies will find such a Stock as to enable them to select Two, Three, Four, or half a dozen at once, if required, in the various materials of VELVET, SATIN, WATERED SILK, TARTAN, &c., all elegantly trimmed in the most modern style of Fashion, and at extremely low prices. Another Department which requires special notice is the SCOTTISH CLAN TARTAN, but it is only necessary to say that this is the only Establishment where the Public can be supplied with the genuine Clans, and in the various qualities, it having been distinguished as the " SCOTTISH CLAN TAR TAN WAREHOUSE" for many years.

F. L. H.'s peculiar attention having been devoted to this important branch of his business, it has been brought to the greatest perfection, and he has much pleasure in stating that, by the consequent increase in the demand, he has been enabled materially to reduce the cost of production. It is now in his power to offer the articles at such prices as to preclude the pos sibility of competition. The endless variety of design, material, and embellishment, from the most elegant and costly to the plain and merely useful, affords an opportunity for selection unapproachable by any other Establishment in Eurone ; and F. L. H. flatters himself that the combination of ornament, utility, and economy, will be found to have been carried out to a greater extent than has ever yet been known.

Every person afflicted with Rupture should read Mr. Todd's Essay upon Hernia, and judge for himself. It briefly explains, and illustrates with plates, the nature and the proper treatment of Hernia, the shape of the Truss, and the mode of wearing it. "We have seen this Truss in use. It is an exceedingly sim ple clever instrument, and may be worn with extreme ease, and the best possible effect."—Lancet, July 4th, 1816. " Mr. Todd's Truss, we think, will supersede those now in ordinary use. It is extremely simple, requiring no straps or other auxiliaries to adjust it, and does not weigh more than three ounces ; and, we understand, it is approved and recom mended by the faculty."—Weekly Dispatch.

IRELAND, OF 92, BOLD-STREET, - 1111Gg inot respectfully to inform the Ladies of -LP Liverpool, that his STOCK OF FURS, FOR THE SEASON, IS NOW READY At thksame time, he ben to return his sincere thanks for the distinguished patronage ' he has received during eight years, which has enabled him to offer for their approval the LARGEST RETAIL STOCK OF FURS IN THE KINGDOM, 4 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 ptirchases his Skins precisely upon the same terms as the largest Wholesale Houses, and also Manufactures them, he obtains thereby an advantage over the smaller purchaser, who merely retails them, and is enabled to charge much Lower than they possibly can. The Esta blishment is. moreover, exclusively devoted to the Sale of FURS ; and the great extent and variety of the Stock will not be found surpassed in any Retail House in England. SABLE GOODS will this year be fully TWENTY PER CENT. LOWER than similar Goods were last season. To ALTERATIONS and REPAIRS it will always be his study to devote as much attention and care as if he was en gaged in the manufacture of new articles; and as he never trusts them to other than the most clever artizans 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 the punctual and faithful exe cution of every order with which he may be entrusted.

HYAM'S READY-MADE CLOTHING ESTABLISHMENT, L 0 R D-S TREE T. T H E P A NI C, Despite of all warnings, The storm thickens fast; Insolvencies now • Are alarmingly vast ; The nation should rise With a force that enthrals, And stop throughout Britain Those ruinous "calls!" Now, look at Hyam's," Their "calls" are so slight, The public don't feel them, They're really so light Their prices for clothing, So charming and good, The test of approval From thousands have stood ! At " Lord-street" call, There is plenty of scope To save cent. per cent., So brighten your hopes THE Public of Liverpool and the surrounding dis tricts should avail themselves of the first opportunity of inspecting this costly and monster stock of clothing, &c. To attempt to enter into any description of the multiplicity of garments here concentrated in one Establishment would be perfectly impracticable; in fact, it would take up too much space, and occupy too much of the time of our friends. Under those circumstances the Proprietors of the Pantechnetheca must simply content themselves with stating, that everything can now be obtained in the shape of Clothing, Hats, Caps, and Hosiery, thereby , not only saving the inconvenience and trouble of going from place to place, but, likewise, they are offered at terms so exceedingly moderate that the parties patronizing this emporium of usefulness must feel a degree of satisfaction commensurated with an Establishment designed to meet the wants and the wishes of an increasing population such as Lancashire.

ALARGE quantity of CANDLES having been lately brought into this town from Warrington, at prices ruinous to honest Traders, the TALLOW CHANDLERS of LIVERPOOL, in self-defence, beg to state that they have ob tained Samples of the same from several Dealers, and having weighed them at the Public Market Office, find they are inva riably from Ten to Twelve Ounces in the Dozen Pounds short of weight ; and believing that a profit thus fraudulently ob tained is as injurious to the Public as to themselves, they therefore venture to hope that no Grocer will countenance so disreputable a proceeding, and that no respectable House keeper will patronise those Dealers who connive at the same.

Families should observe that inferior qualities can be pro cured at much lower prices, but this article is manufactured from the finest brown Seed, and but few Shopkeepers will give the price for the article, consequently it has gained us such reputation, that many other Houses are offering an article of Mustard, of the second quality, at lower prices.

" We do not often read books thrmigh ; hut we have this— really and truly. The beauty of the book, added to its local interest, is its originality."—Liverpool Lion. " Our practical knowledge of Mr. Dignan's talents and style of composition induces us to recommend him to prosecute his present career in imaginative literature."—European Times. " The Slave Captain' is written in a graceful, pleasing style; the plot of it is inter es ti ng an d well developed, and the hand of the practised literary man is to be traced throughout"— Liverpool Mail. _ _ " Mr. Dignan has displayed all the requirements of a no velist ; skill in construction, great power of conception and delineation of character, combined with perfect purity of taste and expression.
