SCHWEPPE AND CO, MANUFACTURERS TO THE QUEEN, AND ALL THE ROYAL FAMILY, 51, BERNERS.STREET , LONDON. EAL Judges of SODA WATER need not to be told that its main excellence consists in the LENGTH OF TIME during which it retains its life and pungency A FTER • IT IS POURED OUT, and not (as many erroneously suppose) on the force with which it expels the cork. This latter is rather the characteristic of the commonest Soda Water, for the obvious reason that the air is disengaged. whereas, by the peculiar principle of ScHWEPPE'S process, the Carbonic Acid does not escape with the cork, but, being thoroughly amalgamated with the water, remains as a valuable medicinal feature in their manufacture. The same observations will apply to their Aerated Lemonade, Potass and Magnesia Waters. Pray observe the RED LABEL, over the Cork, representing their Signature, as many of the other makers impose upon the Public by filling " Schweppe's Bottles" with their own spurious Composition.

DDLEWOOD'§ BOTANIC OIL. sanctioned by Par liament, and patronised by the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public, f or Renovating and Promotit:g a Luxuriant Growth of Hair. No article has ever been discovered possessing the emollient properties of the Botanic Oil—it is a Family Oil, where its use is essentially necessary ; it cleans the hair, and preserves the scalp cool, soft, and healthy, and prevents dryness and th e di seases o f t h e h a i r i nc id ent to Children ; its superior efficacy found great opposition with the vendors of other Hair Oils, so much that it was excluded from the perfumer's store. The Proprietor engaged other Agents, but it was also banished from them, on a pretext that the Botanic Oil possessed greater properties than was in Hair Oils, and that it was a new dis covery, and every person selling it would be subject to a penalty under the Patent Medicine Act ; and so well was this plan arranged, that the Commissioners of Stamps actually com menced an action against the Proprietor, for penalties amount ing to £so—in consequence, the sale was stopped. The Pro prietor does not charge the Commissioners, or His Majesty's Government, with injustice, they were, undoubtedly, imposed upon. The case was reported in its proper light to the Lords of the Treasury, assuring them the informers had no other object in view than to suppress an article they could not com pete with ; however, the only loss the Proprietor had, was the sale of his Oil from 1828 to 1830, but the kind reception his petitio n h a d i n the House of Commons fully compensated for it; and the p u bli c will know how to appreciate such articles, sold under s uc h powellul interest and influence, which is able to crash anything opposed to them. His Grace the Duke of Wellington, the Lords of the Treasury, and Commissioners of Stamps, were so far convinced of the injustice of this case, that no penalty was enfereed, waitinr , the direction of Parliament.

Prepared and sold by the sole Proprietor, at No. 54, SEEL-STREET, LIVERPOOL. In boxes at 2s. 94. and 4s. 6d. each. Warranted not to contain COPAIBA, CUBEBS, or any deleterious ingredient. *** With each Box is given a Treatise on Venereal and Syphilitic Diseases, with observations on seminal weakness &c. &c., containing hints worth knowing by those who are, or have been sufferers to this dreadful and devastating malady. Dr. DAVIE:SON continues to direct his attention to those die. orders.arising from the too free and indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only occasion a numerous train of nervous affections, but also entails on its votaries all the ener vating imbecilities of old age. In that distressing state of de bility and deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful ha bits, excessive drinking, or any other cause by which the powers of the constitution become enfeebled, he offers a firm, safe, and speedy restoration to sound and vigorous health. It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to the ve nereal disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men, who, by the use of that deadly poison. Mercury, ruin the constitution, and when the great Doctor Swedour became Professor at Ley den University. he conferred an invaluable benefit upon man kind by the discovery of his grand Panacea, for the cure oft his deplorable complaint. Never did a discovery excite a greater sensation, it was sought after with avidity, and used with the undeviating success in the most minute and intricate cases of the delicate complaint, for the cure of which they have been so long celebrated. The fame of these Pills throughout Germany, caused their speedy introduction into almost every country. Tile certainty with which they were continually administered can be attested by many thousands. In fact, dirring the long conti nental war they were the inseparable companion and safeguard of the soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infec tion was entertained. What medicine can be more appropriate than that which hasgiven such general satisfaction ? The Hyge ian Herb Pills root, out every particle of insidious poison, puri fying in their progress the whole mass Of fluids. They not only remove the disease, but renovate by their action the different functions of the body expelling the grosser humours, and in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers. The neither contain mercury nor any other mineral, and may be - taken without the slightest slspicion of discovery—they require no restraint of diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business. hut effect a complete cure, without the least exposure to the patient. At any period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well to have recourse to the Hygeian Herb Pills, for when taken before the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain Thevnirsei v ti e n n g ti t v he e, y proprietor,m i n the complaint effectu a lly an d secret l y. deplorable s t a t e i n w hi c h many persons have been when lion] the use of mercury, renders it im peratively necessary to caution the public against that dangerous mineral when injudiciously administered. These Pills should form - a portion of all Medicine Chests, by sea and land, and ought neverto beomitted by any person going a long voyage or journey. their properties are such that neither heat nor cold will injure their quality, or prevent the due effects on the constitution.

HENRY ASPH ASPHALTUM COMPANY , , h the United kingdom. Capital £lOO,OOO iu 10,000 Shares of £lO each. Deposit Ef per Share. Bankers:—The Commercial Bank of England and its Branches, and Barnett, Hoare and Co., Lrindon. Solicitors : —Messrs. Atkinson, Birch, and Saunders. Corisulting Chemist : —John Davies, Esq. Lecturer on Che mistry in the Royal School of Medicine & Surgery, &c &c. In the present rage f or "A sp h a l te Companies, " whic h" many of the sober-minded are disposed to class among the " bubbles" of the day : " The earth has bubl,-/er as the water hath, And these are of them ;" it may be necessary to give a short explanation of their origin, and to show the essential difference between the Manchester Asphaltum Company and all others projected, inasmuch as it is the only one brought hitherto under Ithe notice of the public that stands upon a legitimate and legal basis. In the year 1834, Mr. John Henry Cassell, of Mill Wall, London, manufacturing chemist, obtained a patent for the ap plication of a bituminous cement, in the making of roads, foot paths, roofs, doors, docks, canals, water-courses, and every des cription of work in which cement is or may be used. He fur nishes several public specimens of the utility of his invention, among others, by covering a portion of the Vauxhall Bridge Road, and the flouring of the stables of an extensive brewery at Pimlico, with his bituminous surface. Of the former the bridge committee have expressed unqualified approbation in their published report, and neither has needed the slightest re pair to the present day. Like many other meritorious inventions of native talent, this was neglected, and its existence almost forgotten ; and it was not until the extensive and successful application of the " As- Oahe Mastic" to similar purposes in France and Belgium at tracted the notice of an intelligent English traveller (Mr. Cla ridge), that the British public were roused to a sense of the value and importance of the invention, by his formation of a a company for the importation of the Asphalte de Seysrel" into this country. This has been quickly followed by the announce ments of various other " Asphalte Companies," professing to derive their materials from Switzerland and other parts of the continent; and one company announces that they have actually despatched an emissaty to the Pacha of Egypt to make arrange ments for obtaining their Asphaltum from that country ! ! ! It is of course impossible for Mr. Cassell (for the present) to prevent the formation of these companies, to dissuade people from subscribing to them, or to prevent their respective shares getting to a high premium • but as his patent is not f u r th e use of any particular ingredients, but for the application of a bituminous cement, to the purposes above stated, it is clear that without his license no company can proceed in the construction of any works of this nature during the next ten years, the un expired term of his patent. His determination to support his patent right against all infractions of it (when the proper time shall arrive) is announced in au advertisement inserted in the London daily papers. The promoters of this company were among the very first to become sensible of the advantages of this invention, and the importance of extending them to the towns of Manchester and Liverpool, and the populous district of which the former town may be considered the centre. But being determined to build upon a foundation that cannot be shaken, and desirous to guard against the possibility of becoming involved in a suit in Chan cery, they considered it an indispensable preliminary to investi gate the terms, and ascertain the legal effect of Mr Cassell's patent (the only one qf the same stature enrolled), and to shape their measures accordingly. They have now the satisfaction to announce, that they have concluded an arrangement with the patentee, by which is se cured to the company, upon very advantageous terms, the sole use and exercise of his patent right, throughout the county palatine of Lancaster, together with all the benefit of his past experience, and any further improvement that he may make in the process. It is unnecessary here to enlarge upon the importance of im proving, the present means of intercommunication between every part of this commercial country, or to enumerate the va rious purposes of practical utility to which this invention may be advantageously applied. To secure to this district, and to the county palatine gene rally, the advantages resulting from this discovery, it is pro posed to form a company under the above title, (protected by Cassell's patent,) for the manufacture and use of, the cement for the various purposes to which it is applicable, and with all the improvements in the composition of which it is or may be susceptible. The following are some of the leading provisions : The capital, in the first instance, to be £lOO,OOO, in 10,000 shares of £lO each, with power at any future period to increase it, by the creation of additional shales, if a special general meeting of the proprietors shall deem it expedient to do so. The deposit to be £1 per share, placed to the credit of the shareholders, after defraying the expenses necessarily inci dental to the formation of the company. Each subscriber, on receiving his letter of appropriation, to pay the deposit withi n th e time therein specified, or it cann o t be received by the b an k ers , and the allotment will be cancell e d. As soon after the appropriation of the shares as possible, a general meeti ng o f th e p ro prietors will be called, to appoi n t two trustees, in whom will be vested the property of the com pany, and to choose directors, to whom the provisional com mittee will render an account of their stewardship, and by whom the future management of the affairs of the company will be conducted. One portion to retire by rotation every year, so that the entire directory may be renewed every three years; but the retiring directors to be eligible for re-election. The quali fication for a director, the holding of 20 shares. The deed of settlement to contain full and explicit provisions for the regulation and government of the company, and for li miting the liability of the shareholders to the amount subscribed by them respectively; and the better to insure this object, the purchases of the company will be made solely by its known and recognised officers or agents, and for present cash only. This company offers an opportunity for a highly lucrative in - vestintrit of capital, for the following among other reasons :-- 1. It is the only one hitherto projected, protected by the li cense of the patentee; and the sphere of its operations is suffi ciently extensive for the profitable enjoyment of a greatly ex tended capital, without fear of a rival. 2. The ingredients are to be bund, not only in this country, but within a short distance o f Manchester. A substance, in all re spects the same a s th e "A sp h a l te d e ,Seyssel," may be obtained in any required quantity. for little mere than the cost of transit. Applications for sh ares t o b e a ddressed (post-paid ) to the Provisional Cotninittee, at the office Mr. ItoßEtur 'WALKER, Prince's-Court, Market-street, or at the office of Mr. J. D. BARRY Stock and Sharebroker, 34, B ro wn-street, King-street, Manchester, of whom P ros p ec t uses may he obtained. No ap plication from London, or beyond the confines of the county palatine, can be attended tn, unless at the same time the deposit be paid to the company's hankers. * The analysis of this substance, of which the public 6 , s lately heard so much, shows that it is composed of from nine to ten per cent. of mineral bitumen ; the remainder is carbonate (j . lime, nearly pure; the bitumen itself being► made up of about twp pails of resinous petroliferous matter, and one part of cat bun.
