CHIMNEY SWEEPING.—Whereas there are certain persons who are interested in upholding the disgraceful practice of sweeping chimneys by children, and these parties having endeavoured to show that fires will more frequently happen if this revolting anirtbarbarous custom is abandoned ; and such persons having intimated that the rate of premium on Fire Insurances will be increased as a necessary conse quence of such abandonment :—Notice is hereby given, that this office is ready to accept proposals for such insurances as other Fire-offices may reject upon the foregoing plea, and that, too, upon the old rate; because crooked chimneys will be better swept by Glass's machine than they have ever yet been done by the most expert child, putting the morality of the question entirely aside ROBERT STEVEN, Secretary. The following document is appended, partly to confirm the bove opinion, and more especially to do away with all idea of magnifying one office to the prejudice of others : TESTIMONY OF THE LONDON FIRE OFFICES IN FAVOUR OF MECHANICAL CHIMNEY SWEEP ING. " We, the undersigned, do hereby certify, on the part of our respective Offices, that we have been long in the habit of using Glass's machine for the cleansing of our chimneys, and that we find it done as effectually as when we employed those men who keep boys for the purpose:— "ANDREW HAMILTON, Alliance:Assurance Office.

ROBINSON'S PATENT BARLEY AND PATENT GROATS, recommended by the Faculty, patronized by the Queen and Royal Family. The attention of Families and Invalids is particularly called to the inestimable qualities of the above Patent Articles, be ing the purest Farirne of the Barley and Oat ever produced, deprived of their fermentative properties by a Steam Process, whereby all crudities are removed, and impurities rejected. ROBINSON'S PATENT BARLEY is the only genuine article by which pure Barley Water can be made in ten minutes. It produces an excellent mucilage nous beverage, more palatable than that made from Pearl Barley. Mothers, during the anxious period of suckling, will find it cooling and nutritious. In constitutions when stimulant and fermented liquors are inadmissable, it is an ample and productive source of comfort both to the parent and infant. It is also strongly recommended for light sup pers, food for infants, and makes a most delicious custard pudding, for which purpose it has been used by families of the first distinction. and will be found suitable for the invalid or healthy, the infant or aged. It is also highly esteemed as an adjunct with new milk for the breakfast table. ROBINSON'S PATENT GROATS possess the same advantages of purity as the Patent Barley. The delicate gruel made by this article very far surp asses any other. It is deprived of those pernicious qualities which com mon gruel generally contains, and which produce heartburn and acidity in the stomach. Children and those labouring under difficult digestion will be 'found highly benefited by its use, and the short time required for its preparation, makes it a most valuable acquisition for the sick chamber. CAUTION. As many spurious imitations, with similar wrappers, both in size, colour, and appearance, are being offered to the Pub lic, the P atentees deem it necessary to ca ll t h e attention of Families, an d espec i ally Servants, to the circumstance, and to request they will observe that on each Genuine Packet are placed the Royal Arms, with the words " By Royal Letters Patent," and the Signature of " MATTS.

In such persons the appetite is generally defective, and the relish of life is alp most subdued ; they are wanting in that activity of mind and energy of conduct which their affairs require ; and partly from conscious weakness, partly from excessive apprehen sions, are liable to sink despondently into a premature grave. It is for these that Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, parti cularly designed their CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM, Whatever enriches the blood, without inflaming it ; what. ever braces without stimulating too violently the nervous system ; whatever frees and disburdens the viscera and other important organs ; whatever resolves obstructions, and throws off viscid humours; whatever strengthens the general habit, and brings back the muscular fibres to their natural and healthy tone ; whatever is calculated to produce, in a considerable degree, all or any of these effects, must be, under certain mo difications and restrictions, equally adapted to every species of decay. Hence, though the Cordial Balm of Syriacum makes a direct attack upon the many-headed hydra in one quarter only, it will be found to apply indirectly or collate rally, to almost every other ' • in short, the debility of nature can be completely reinstated by this excellent medicine, for its reanimating powers exceed almost credibility ; its finp rich stimulating balsamic stomach qualities—its purification of the blood—and, above all, the complete invigorator of the nervous system, whereby the whole faculties become re stored to their proper power and functions. and the fallen fabric of life is raised up to beauty, consistency, and dura tion, upon the ruins of an emaciated and premature decay, to sound and pristine health. As nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution, so there is nothing more generally acknow ledged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward wastings, loss of appetite, indigestion, depression of spirits, trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs, obstinate cough, shortness of breath, or consumptive habits. It possesses wonderful effi cacy in all cases of syphilis, fits, head-ache, weakness, heaviness and lowness of spirits, dimness of sight, confused thoughts, wandering of the mind, vapours, and melancholy ; and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually removed by its use. Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men or women, are under its immediate influence. Old coughs, asthmas, and consumptive habits are soon relieved, and speedily cured. Poverty of blood, and emaciated limbs, will, ere long, meet the happiest change ; the chill, watery fluid will become rich and balsamic, and the limbs be covered with flesh, firm and healthy.

A YORKSHIRE FRIEND.—I may be allowed to particula rise the kindness of Mr. Mullins, the senior member of the circuit, who grasped me warmly by the hand, and offered me, as a mark of his esteem, to swap horses with me on the spur of the moment. It was very old, and slightly lame in one leg, but the friendliness of his feelings was made equally ma nifest by the offer as if I had accepted it, which, however, I declined doing, as I was unwilling to deprive him of the ser vices of so long tried a favourite. Mr. Mullins is a native of Yorkshire, and retains a considerable share of the accent of that beautiful county.—The Northern Circuit, from Black wood's Magazine. THE CHANCES OF WAR: THREE BRITISH MARAU DERS SAVE A FRFNCH ARMY FROM CAPTURE.--SOUlt, after this disastrous defeat, continued his retreat on the day following, with all possible expedition up the valleys of the Lanz and Guy; but he was now in a most hazardous situa tion ; his troops were all worn out with excessive toil ; his fighting men were reduced to thirty-five thousand ; Foy, with eight thousand whom he had rallied, was retiring up the Guy towards Zuhiri, entirely separated from the main body, which was slanting down towards the Bidassoa ; and the baggage, artillery, and caissons could scarcely be hoped to be preserved, while recrossing the rugged summits of the Pyrenees. Graham, with twenty thousand, was ready to stop him on the side of St. Sebastian ; and it was only by an extraordinary exertion of skill and coolness that his army'. in these circumstances, was preserved from total ruin. He directed his retreat, n o t b y t h e va ll ey of Bastan towar ds the Puerta de Maya, as d'Erlon had entered, but by the FA I , of Donna Maria towards the Elisondo and the valley ef d . a Upper Bidassoa.
