And, as 30 years ago nobody could cure these comp'aints, or can now, but himself, lie has for 30 years cured them from benevo lence rather than gain; and, out of 14,000 nobles, nobleses, M.P.'s, aderals, generals, barristers, clergymen, physicians, surgeons, tradesmen, &c. &c., he knows not 20 uncured who have followed his advice.

TESTIMONIALS - OF TITI, PUBLIC PRESS. " There are no diseases Which haVe mOre puzzled the faculty than nervous complaints and insanity. Doctors have both been unable to account for them and to prescribe any means of cure. This darkness has, however, been cleared away by the clever author of the above pamphlet, in which he explains hie theory of cure in a very rational manner, and we feel certain that it will induce many to apply to Mr. Adams for his a:at• assistance."—The Chronicle, Dec., 1846. " We cordially recommend all nervous persons to submit their cases to the skill of Mr. Adams, the author of a pamphlet on Mind or Nervous Complaints and Insanity."—Farmer', Journal, July, 1846.

The Memorial of the undersigned Shipowners and other Parties concerned in the Carriage of Passengers fzo:n Liverpool to the United States of America, Showeth,—That, on the arrival of the sten/Tee Hibernia, from the United States, on the 15th instant, your Memorialists had the first official intimation of the enactment of a New L.Lw by the Congress of the United States of Americr, to regulate the Carriage of Passengers in Merchant VCE., els. That, independent of other enactments, the effect of the sa'd Act is to reduce the number of Passergers each Vessel is al lowed to bring into Ports of the United states, in proportion to her tonnage and space • and its provisions, thou g h some d ou b ts exist as to the interpretation of the Act, are generally consi dered to apply to all ships from Europe arriving in •United States Ports, after the 81st of Mav proximo. That, in ignorance of the said - Act, your Memorialists haVe made numerous engagements for the carriage of Emigrant Passengers to United States Torts, the number engaged for each Ship, (though in accordance with the provisions of the then and still existing Act of Congress,) being, in every in stance, considerably more than will be permitted by the new Act. That, of all the ships so circumstanced, some are already at sea, while others are on the point of sailing, with their full complement of passengers engaged. That, should the winds be unfavourable, these ships may not arrive at their destinatson before the 31st of May, and your Memorialists and their Masters may hence be rendered liable to the confiscation, fines, and imprisonments imposed by the new Act in cases of infraction of its regulations. That, even should your Memorialists escape the extreme pe nalties of the Act, they are apprehensive that their ships will be subject to detention white each case is being inquired into, and being considered by the authorities at Washington, which, in itself, amount to the severest penalty. Your Memorialists would, therefore, earnestly pray your Lordship to cause such representations to be made to the Go vernment of the United States on this subject as may have the effect of enabling your 'Memorialists to fulfil all engage ments entered into prior to their knowledge of the new law, without. sabjecting them to its penalties or the detention of infractions • their ships in consequence of of its provisions, committed in ignorance of its existence. Which your Memorialists respectfully submit. E DINBURGH, LEITH, & GRANTON RAILWAY COMPANY. ADDITIONAL STOCK. FIRST CALL OF .2 PER SHARE.

Extract of a Letter dated Roscommon, February 19th, 1847, from the highly-respectable Proprietor of the Roscommon .Tournal. Sir,—Mr. Ryan, the well-known proprietor of the hotel next door to me, had two very bad legs, one with eiht ulcers on it, the other with three, they were in such a fearful state that the effluvia from them was very great. Some time since he made a journey to Dublin for the purpose of consulting some of the most eminent professional men, but returned home to his fa mily with the choice of either one of two alternatives—to have both legs amputated, or die I—On his way home he met a gen tleman in the coach who recommended the use of Holloway's Pills and Ointment, which he had recourse to, and was per fectly cured by their means alone. (Signed) CHARLES TULLY, Editor and Proprietor of the Roscommon Journal. To Professor Holloway. A CURE OF A DREADFUL AND DANGEROUS CASE OF ERYSIPELAS. In the following remarkable case the lady bad been both deaf and dumb from the virulence of the complaint. February 191 h, 1847. Airs. Gibbons, of Tivoli-place, Cheltenham, was for two years so dreadfully afflicted with Erysipelas that she became (how ever eNtraordinary it may appear) both blind and deaf, from the severity of the disease, and during the whole of the time she was attended by several of the most eminent medical men in Cheltenham, without receiving any benefit whatever, and, as a last resource, she tried liolloway's Pills and Ointment, which in two months perfectly cured the dreadful complaint, and like wise restored her to health. e Mrs. Stoyle, the very respectable landlady of the New.. market Inn, Cheltenham ' can bear witness to this cure. It can a!so be authenticated at the Stationers, No. 10, Arcade, nigh street, Cheltenham. _ _ _ In all Diseases of the Skin, Bad Legs, Old Wounds and LTl cers, Bad Breasts, Sere NippTes, Stoney and Ulcerated Cancers, Tumours, Swellings, Gout, Itheumatism,and Lumba7.o, likewise in cases of Piles; Holloway's Pills, in all the above cases, ought to be used with the Ointment ; as by this means cures will be eTected with a much greater certainty, and in half the time that It wculd require by using the Ointment alone. The ointment is proved to be a certain remedy for the bite of Moschettoes, Chiegofoot. Yaws, and Coco bay, and all Skin Dis eases common to the East and West Indies, and other tropical climates. Burns. Scald!, Chilblains, Chapped Hands and Lips, also Bur.;ens and Soft Corns, will be immediately cured by the use of the Ointment.
