Saturday, January 7, will be published, price Sixpence, stamped to go free by post, THE FIRST NUMBER FOR 1843 OF •••• W rrHE GARDENERS' CHRO A NICLE; J. a Weekly Record of Rural Economy and General News. THE HORTICULTURAL PART EDITED BY PROFESSOR'LINDLEY. Such has been the success of " THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE" that it has already a sale far beyond any contemporary of a like character—a sale which has gone on progressively increasin g from the c omm e,n cemen t. This fact, gratifying as it is from the Proprietors; will only stimu late them to further exertions ; AND TAEY, THEREFORE, MERELY REFER TO THE PAST AS A.NWEARNEST OF THE FUTURE, and announce for the information of the public generally the nature of the Publication. THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE is, in the first place, a weekly record of everything that bears upon Horticulture, Floriculture, Arboriculture, or Garden Botany, and such Natural History as has relation to Gardening, with Notices and Criticisms of all works of importance on such subjects. Connected with this part are WEEKLY CALENDARS OF GARDENING OPERATIONS given in great detail, and adapted to the objects of persons in every station of life; so that the Cottager with a few rods of ground before his door, the Amateur who has only a greenhouse, and the Ma nager of extensive gardens, are alike informed each week of the routine of operations which the va r yi ng seasons ren d er necessary. It moreover contains very extensive Foreign and Domestic Correspondence upon Horticultural subjects— Reports of Horticultural Exhibitions and Proceedings at home and abroad—Notices of Novelties and Improvements— in short, everything that can tend to advance the profession, benefit the condition of the workman, or conduce to the pleasure of his employer, all accompanied with Woodcuts, whenever the matter treated of requires that mode of illus tration. Replies to all questions connected with the object of the Paper are also given weekly in great detail. And al though the Paper is not, strictly speaking, an Agricultural Journal, yet it contains full Reports of the Proceedings of the Royal Agricultural Society, and much valuable informa tion upon the more interesting subjects of discussion in this branch of inquiry. IN THE SECOND PLACE, that description of domestic and political News is introduced which is usually found in a Weekly Newspaper. It is unnecessary to dwell on this head further than to say, that the Proprietors do not range them selves under the banners of any party ; their earnest endea vours are to make THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE a full and comprehensive Record of Facts only—a Newspaper in the true sense of the word—leaving the reader to form his own conclusion and opinions : their object being the elucidation and discussion of the laws of Nature, not of man. The reader is thus furnished, IN ADDITION TO THE PECULIAR FEATURE OF THE JOURNAL, with such a variety of informa tion concerning the events of the day, as supersedes the ne cessity of his providing himself with any other Weekly London Paper. Each year commences a new Volume, and is complete in itself. A Prospectus, with List of Contributors, may be had on application, or by letter, at the Office, 3, Charles -street, Covent-garden, London. Parties intending to commence with the New Volume had better give their orders at once to any Newsvendor. IWP as under Oates bp guidon.

PYER, Confectioner, 32, Great Homer-street, for Everton and Kirkdale. pAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS consist of one kind only %.—) of Black and one of Green. The Black is a mixture of Forty different kinds of rare Black Teas, remarkable for their great strength, delicious flavour, and natural aroma. This natural aroma of the Tea being completely preserved in the Packages in which it is imported. The Green is Small Leaf Gunpowder Tea of the finest kind, and is grown only on one Estate. Captain PIDDING, who has made eight voyages to China, completed arrangements when last at Canton, securing to himself the exclusive importation of these particular Teas. Extract from Dr. Sigmond's Lecture on Captain Pidding's _ _ . .... Tea before the Med. Bot. Society. " This particular Tea has been very much and very de servedly prised, and has now become a Standard Tea in this Country." (From Dr. James Johnson, M.D., Physician to his late Majesty, &e.) _ , - " Suffolk-place, Pall Mall, London. " Sir,—Ever since your Tea was first introduced, myself and family have used it ; indeed, only it, and we have no hesitation in giving it the preference to all others. " Yours, &c., " JAMES JontisoN, M.D. •`ITo Captain Pidding." CAPTAIN PIDDING'S Teas were formerly sold under the title of " Howqua's Mixture," and " Howqua's Small Leaf Gunpowder" ; but hundreds of Grocers, anxious to profit by the celebrity of tea which he alone imports, have given the same title to rubbish of their own, so that there is now scarce one but has his " Howqua's," " Mowqua's,” " Saoqua's." or some other spurious mixture. Against such imposition, the only security is " CAPTAIN PIDDING'S NAME." This they have not yet forged, and his signature is on every really genuine package. _ _ Sold in Chinese Catty packages, containing one pound and one-third, nett of Tea, exclusive of lead and paper,—the Black, at the rate of 6s. 4d. per lb. ; the Gunpowder at 9s. per lb. ; Half and Quarter Catties in propo r ti on . A Q uar t er Catty o Black, charged 2s. 2d., will go as far as half a pound of the commonest Tea, if made according to Capt. Pidding's directions given on each package.

The rules for the distribution of the Surplus Funds or Profits in this Society are framed on the most equitable prin ciples ; the Assured participating therein according to amount and endurance of their respective Policies. By the laws of the Society, regulating the distribution of the Sur plus Funds, Additions fall to be made to the Policies at each period of Investigation, in proportion to the amount assured, and the number of annual premiums previously paid; and a Contingent Prospective Addition is also declared to meet the case of persons dying between two periods of investigation, such Contingent Prospective Addition being calculated in proportion to the number of annual premiums paid during the interval, not only on the Sum Assured, but also on the Vested Additions previously declared. Parties dying within five years after the date of their Assurances receive no Addi tions, any order previously made for Additions to such Poli cies becoming thereby vacated ; but in the event of the par ties surviving the period of five years, the Additions previ ously declared take full effect from the date of the Policy. The next Periodical Investigation takes place on the Ist of January, 1846. On application, Parties may convert their Bonus Additions into an equivalent Deduction from their future annual Pre miums, or may receive the value of their Additions in ready Money. The Directors are empowered to grant Loans to Members, on the security of their Policies, to the extent of nine-tenths of their value at the time, provided such proportion of the value shall not be less than £5O. Intending Assurers may, from the above, satisfy them selves, that independently of this Society's large Accumula ted Fund and Annual revenue, and other advantages neces sarily arising from its long, steady, and extensive business, the Principles on which it is Founded and Conducted are of the most Equitable character, and such as hold out the greatest inducements to parties now wishing to become con nected with it.

It renovates, and produces the finest lustre, even when the Hair is on the decline or turning gray. It is more nutritious than other Oils used for the same purpose. Its great utility renders it of national importance. The testimonials and kind recommendations of many distingiljshed personages in Parliament remove any doubts of it.Wicacy, and it is the first and only article for similar use ever sanctioned by Go vernment. The increasing demand will meet every attention. The VEGETABLE SOAP is also highly esteemed for its emollient properties, and has an equal claim to preference, in preventing the hands chopping, &c. Sold at Is. per square and 10s. per dozen.—Family Oil, in bottles for the toilet, is. 6d. and 10s. ; and pot boxes at 25., 3s. 6d., and ss. each. The great utility of the Family Oil was satisfactorily proved on the 10th of April, 1830, in Parliament, when Mr. Goulburn, then Chancellor of the Exchequer, was pleased to grant the protection sought by the Proprietor. • Orders, addressed to the Proprietor, No. 6, Parker-street Liverpool, will he duly attended to. Persons prejudiced against advertised Hair Oils may be satisfied of the efficacy of the above. The Proprietor, who has used it 30 years, has experienced no decline, but rather an improvement, in his Hair. ECENT events have awakened so general a feeling of _Lb the momentous importance of securing a protection from fire to Deeds, Records, MSS., ,!looks and Papers of Accompt, Cash, Gunpowder, an d alfCombustible Materials, that TI - I ONI AS NI ILNER and SON feel excused in again invitiag public notice to their PATENT FIRE RESISTING DEPOSITORIES. Having submitted their one=thaftiliered Boxes, of one inch in thickness, to severe trials in the prin cipal towns, they have received from the authorities of each the most satisfactory certificates of their efficiency for ordi nary casualties ; and, being confirmed in their opinion by a ong course of experiment, that, under suitable modification of chambers and thickness of boxes, the peculiar principle of their Patent is capable of affording security under the severest ordeal likely to occur in calamities of the kind, they respectfully solicit the consideration of gentlemen interested in mechanical science to the subject generally, and investiga tion into the pretensions of the various means of security in use, their own amongst the rest. M. and S. are pre - pared to submit their manufactures to public trial with any others of equal dimensions, whilst their comparatively moderate cost renders them extensively avail able. The Certificate of the satisfactory trial of their Boxes in Liverpool bears the signatures of the following gentlemen, to whom permission of reference is kindly given : TITOMAS BOLTON, Esq. (ex-Mayor.) JOHN SHAW LEIGH, Esq. (ex-Mayor.) Sir THOMAS BRANCKER. BARTHOLOMEW PRESCOT, Esq. L. GRAHAM, Esq. R. FRODSHAM, Esq. WM. STOCK, ESC]. S. Woons. jun., Esq. In addition to the above, Milner and Son draw attention to the following statements : A trial of Milner's Patent Fire Resisting Safes and Boxes 113%in:41).2e:1 announced by cards, issued to 501) of the scien tific arid principal gentlemen of Dublin, which was adjourned from the Royal Dublin Society's premises, on account of alterations in progress thereon, took place at the Rotund() Gardens, October 7th, 1812. The tire, consisting of half a ton of coals, and fifty to sixty feet of wood and kindlinz, was lighted at one o'clock, with a box and powder safe, filled with papers, &c., in the centre. The whole were examined by the gentlemen present, whose signatures on the certificate were placed inside. Sir John Kingston James kindly conducted the proceed ngs, and locked the box. At two o'clock, at Dr. Meyler's suggestion, a large sugar hogshead, with both ends knocked out, was placed over the top of the fire, which, quickly ig niting, caused a very fierce draught, and produced intense heat on the tops of the boxes, which were seen through the opening crevices of the burning cask most severely exposed. A little before three o'clock, Dr. Meyler, with whom the keys had been left by Sir John Kingston James, opened the box, and its contents, including several parchments with seals attached, were found to be perfectly safe. At half-past four o'clock the Powder Safe was taken out and opened, and the inner cell, with its contents, were still unaffected by the heat. It was again replaced in the fire of red coke, and kept in until six p.m. ; when taken out, after five hours' trial. al though the outer cell was red hot, the inner one and contents, on being opened, in the presence of Joshua Abel, Esq., H. Richardson, Esq., M.D., Messrs. Thosand, Gardiner, Trouton, &c., were still as fresh and perfect as when placed in the fire. We declare our satisfaction with the result of these experiments, and our confidence in the perfect efficiency of this principle for the preservation of all combustible ma terials in ordinary fires.

Hugh WlSTeile ; his untiring zeal as a minister of the Gospel of the grace of God ; his able and effective vindication of our national church ; his powerful advocacy of sound scriptural national education ; his readiness at all times, through good report and evil, to occupy the post of danger at the call of duty ; and, above all, the high consistency of his Christian cha racter, for so many years seen and known amongst us, make it matter no less of duty towards themselves than of debt to him, that the friends of the Bible and the Church, in Liverpool, should make some worthy and lasting acknow ledgement, as well of their sense of his services, as of their respect and affection personally towards himself. That the members of the Toxteth-park Protestant Operative Associa tion feel especially happy in adding their mite towards so deserved a tribute, inasmuch as his labours in defence and in support of everything dear to us as. Englishmen and Chris tians, together with his personal kindness to ourselves, as the beloved and respected president of this association, leave us his debtors, in gratitude, to an amount which we feel ourselves as unable to pay as to forget." 2d.—Moved by Mr. JOHN LONGWORTII, and seconded by Mr. THOMAS KING, "That Richard Harbord, lieq. be thi, treasurer, and Mr. Hunton be the secretary, to the M'Neile testimonial fund, and that the amount collected be added to the general fund." 3d.—Moved by Mr. CRISP. and seconded by Mr. W.
