MAHOMED (from Brighton) respectfully informs the Nobility, Gentry, and Public of the County of Lancashire and Neighbourhood, that he has established a BATH, the same as his Father's, at Brighton, so long known and visited by Invalids suffering from Rheumatism, Gout, Lumbago, Sciatica, Paralysis, Roughness and Diseases of the Skin, Stiff Joints, Sprains, &c. Its effects in these cases have excited astonishment. In cases of corporeal weakness, or where the circulation is languid, it is a safe and certain remedy, as will best be seen by a reference to the Book of Cases, from letters in the handwriting of the patients them selves. These Baths in health are recommended to keep the pores of the skin free, and as a luxury after travelling, or severe exercise, are very superior to the common water Bath. The Baths are fitted up, and are under the constant in spection of Mr. M., at the EUSTON HOTEL. Fleetwood-on- Wyre. BY SPECIAL APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY AND THE ROYAL FAMILY. CHWEPPE'S SODA and POTASS WATERS, and AERATED LEMONADE. The continued preference of the Public for the above preparations, celebrated for their superior quality throughout the last half century, calls for the respectful acknowledgments of the Manufacturers, who beg leave particularly to CAUTION their Friends and Cus tomers in general against an imposition continually practised by unprincipled persons filling SCHWEPPE'S bottles with a spurious composition, and passing it off as SCHWEPPE'S manufacture. The imitations contain no alkali, and are alto gether destitute of those medical qualities which have contri buted so materially to establish the credit of the former, and to secure for it the approbation of the Faculty. None are genuine without a label, representing the name of their Firm. J.

Stewards—Lord G. BENTINCK, Sir R. W. BULKELEY, Bart., and Lord STANLEY. The Liverpool July Meeting is now established as a great event in sporting annals. The eclat with which the whoic affair generally goes off, and the improvements which are year by year introduced, render lit well worthy the public patronage, and the attention of all sporting men. The races of the present year have far exceeded others in interest, amount of stakes, and goodness of sport. The extreme fineness of Wednesday induced many to make a holiday, and we have seldom seen the attendance on a first day better. The arrangements of the course, the running, and the punctu ality adhered to, in the times of starting, did the secretary Mr. Lynn, and Mr. Etty the clerk, great credit. The plan of telegraphing the horses to start, by me - which correspond with " Evans, Chegvin, rect cord," as suggested a season or two ago the Sunday Times, at Goodwood, has be and was the theme of general remark and app.— may briefly describe the operation. Supposing fly to go for a race—on the " correct card" the hor to start are numbered : previous to the race, ti the jockeys that weigh to ride are put up on th, opposite the number of their horses ; this is dm of tin slides in a frame, on which the names and pear ; after the race the winning horse's numbe so that every person can tell immediately the N is of numbers the time of starting the course " was thronged 1 who had arrived in shatterdam, Whitechanel.

There were very few ladies present the credit of those on whom the arrangem tota- absence of all descriptions of gambling; winnipeggers were to be met with. We noticed, as the erection of several targets, at which those whose to shoot" was pretty extensive, tried : per dozen shots. This rational amusemen. be well supported. We noticed on our that the crops of all descriptions looked extren. Several fields of wheat presented a beautiful appear& ears being full of grain and heavy. The road past I Church was somewhat deserted by those who prefe• longer but somewhat pleasanter route through t' fields, avoiding the bustle and dust of the high' found the course in splendid condition ; the rain vious day, without making it heavy, had given it highly conducive to good running.

In a series of services of pure and solemn beauty, it accompanies you from the cradle to the grave. It meets you at the baptismal font; it furnishes you with a catechism for your younger years; it goes with you when you seek the bishop to take upon yourselves your baptismal vow. When you enter into the estate of holy matrimony, then again the prayer book meets you, and sends you out into the world with blessing and with prayer ; you see it still with the same unwearied ease and assidious love receiving your children at the font as it received your selves before ; and going from the font to the altar to join the thankful mother in her praises to Almighty God for her deliverance from the great pain and peril of childbirth.
