IT is with the above app ropr i ate c h ara cters—tthe English signification of which is " Peace and Plenty," that CAPT. PIDDING'S Chinese correspondent heads his last commu nication from Fo-kcin. " Heaven," he adds, "Approving, has rained down blessings on the Central Natinn. In the same Season, Peace is proclaimed, and Ple ty crowns the Land. Since the ye a r 4448," (A . D. 18,) "'when the Earth was revivified by th e broom-tailed tar," (comet,) vegetation has not been so l uxur i an t as now. T he a i r, redo lent of perfu me f rom th e f ragrant tea- b lossoms, manifests its fine quality; whilst the plentiful picking shows how abundant is the precious leaf. Thus has nature conspired with the gods to make man happy." The new Season's crop of CAPT. PIDDING'S TEAS, just received, realises all that he anticipated from the above communication. Their quality is most assuredly the finest he has known. Their abundance —with a remission of duties in prospect—has determined him at once to reduce the price below what they have ever before been charged. CAPTAIN PIDDING'S MIXED BLACK TEA is ac cordingly REDUCED from Bs. 6d. the Catty Package to 6s. the Pound Package. His SMALL LEAF GUNPOW DER is REDUCED from Twelve Shillings the Catty Package to Bs.

The CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM is a gentle stimulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life, and is, therefore, calculated to afford decided relief to those who have fallen into a state of chronic debility. In such persons the appetite is generally defective, and the relish of life is almost subdued ; they arc wanting in that activity of mind and energy of conduct which their affairs require ; and partly from conscious weakness, partly from excessive ap prehensions, are liable to sink despondently into a premature grave. It is for these that Messrs. PERRY and Co., Sur geons, particularly 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 consi derable degree, all or any of these effects, must be, under certain modifications 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 collaterally, to almost every,other ; in short, the debility of nature can be completely reinstated by this excellent medi cine, fur its reanimating powers almost exceed credibility ; its fine, rich, stimulating, balsamic stomachic qualities—its purification of the blood—and, above all, the complete invi gorator of the nervous system, whereby the whole faculties become restored to their proper power and functions, and the fallen fabric of life is raised up to beauty, consistency, and duration, 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 acknowledged 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 efficacy in all cases of syphilis, fits, headache, weakness, heaviness and lowness of spirits, dimness of sight, confused thoughts, wanderings 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, asthwas, 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. _ Sold in Bottles, price lls. each, or the quantity of four in one Bottle for 335., by which one Ils.

The Times newspaper has described these illustrations justly, as extending through productions of the most perfect art, at every period, from that of Michael Angelo to that of Reynolds and West. The work also contains One Hundred and Thirteen original Drawings and Vignette Embellish ments to the several Books of the Holy Scriptures, by P. J. De Loutherbourg, R.A. ; and also manuscripts of the Dedi cations and various other appropriate and beautiful speci mens of penmanship. Engravings and Etchings after Rai facile, Marc Antonio, Albert Darer, Callot, Rembrandt, &c., constitute the mass of the illuminations and they in clude every ocu l ar f act, c i rcumstance, and object to which the holy writ alludes. Trees, Plants, Flowers, Quadrupeds, Birds, Fishes, Insects,—Fossils in proof of the universal Deluge, and the most complete and perfect Atlases, are among the subjects of these splendid illustrations. According to the present plan, there will he Three Hun dred and Fifty Subscribers at Ten Guineas each, to contest for this gorgeous prize. The Proprietor intends not to re tain-a single Ticket, and the decision will be made after the plan of the Art-Union, as to the modes of drawing for the prizes at that Institution. The decision will take place at Mrs. PARKES'S, No. 22, Golden-square ; of which notice shall be sent at least ten days previous to the day of drawing. The Subscribers present will be competent to proceed to the decision, and whoever proves the successful competitor, to him or her will he assigned the Forty-five Volumes of BOWYER'S UNIQUE BIBLE, with its gorgeous illus trations, to be removed at his or her expense. The other prize will be drawn for at the same time. It is an original picture by the late W. HILTON, ILA., one of the best productions from his hand, and its subject the Trium phal Entry of the Duke of Wellington into Madrid, on the 12th of August, 1812. It ought to be understood, that, though the holder of a Ten Guinea Ticket may possess one or other of these great works,—THE BIBLE, OR HILTON'S PICTURE,—yet those who do not gain either will not be losers; for, every Sub scriber receives prints to the full value of his Ten Guinea Ticket, to be selected from the annexed lists ; so that, in fact, his chances ,for the Bible and the Picture cost him nothing. The novel features of this plan are—that every purchaser of a ticket receives immediately the full value of his money, independently of his future chance. Every purchaser of a ticket of Ten Guineas, is not only in the condition of a private purchaser of plates to that amount, but he has in virtue of that ticket a chance of securing to himself the great Bible Prize of 3,000 Guineas value, or the great Picture Prize of 500 Guineas value. It cannot, there fore, be doubted that the Subscription List, which is limited to 350 names, will be shortly filled up, and an early applica tion is recommended to all intending purchasers. The Illustrated Bible, in 45 large folio volumes, may be inspected any day, between the hours of eleven . and four, at the house of Mrs. PARKES, 22, Golden-square, where Hil ton's Picture may also be seen. The plan at present proposed for drawing is as follows :- 350 Tickets, with the Subscribers' names thereon, to be placed in a wheel for that purpose. The first drawn name will be entitled to Hilton's Picture ; the last drawn name will have the 45 splendid volumes of the Holy Scriptures. Each Subscriber receiving the full value of his Prints not connected with either of the great prizes, so that there can be no blanks. LIST OF PUBLICATIONS FROM WHICH A SELECTION MAY BE MADE.

Last Saturday the very best dairies only made 7d. per lb., w hilst inferi or ones with difficult y ; realised 4d. to 6d. New milk is likewise mote plentiful at Retford at the present time than we have known it for the last twenty years—so much s o, indeed, that it is with the greatest difficulty one-half of itcan be disposed of ; and a talk is quite current that the in habitants are to have this article at tariff prices during the present week. As a proof also that calves are plentiful, and not in very great request in that neighbourhood, we may state that a few days ago Mr. Howe, of the Crown Inn, bar tered away a calf for a hen and chickens, pluming himself at the same time that he had made the best in the bargain. The hen and chickens on the same day were purchased by the farming bailiff of a neighbouring gentleman for is. tid., and are now making up for the future garnishings of their mas ter's table.—Doncaster Gazette. is morning, the MYSTERIOUS CASE.—At an early hour th , _ d watchmen in the vicinity of St. Enoch -square were in n f u o t T h e nt by two girls of the town, who had been 'boverirab into Adam's quarter, that they had observed two persons pass "Ce them a dark court-lane through the square, bearing be w d believed to be the bo y of a man, looking object, which they II•• stands in the and deposit it in an empty cart, which usua y . • to the place referred to, the police lane. On proceeding found the dead body of a stout -looking man, wanting his hat, but without any external marks of violence on his person, lying with the face uppermost, in the fore part of the cart. Having conveyed the body to the office, a strict search i1•.,11 made for the two men who bad been seen by the women, but without avail, they having made off at their utmost speed when they bad got quit of their burden. A farther investi -1 gallon near to the premises in Adam's-court-lane being ma d e by the police, a bonnet was discovered lying at the foot of a stair leading to a number of cellars t hos e here, which is turne G d out to be the proper t y of the deceased, w name M'euni gal, a hammerman, who resides somewhere in Anderston. Suspicion being excited by this circumstance as to the na ture of the premises occupied as cellars, inquiry was made at the neighbours, when all of them, with one exception, got owners.. The cellar without an owner being broken open, a small still, arid the other m aterials for whiskey manufacture were discovered, and in such a state as indicated that the; had been in recent use. This is the only clue that has beets : obtained in the mean time to account for the dead •bo Iln the cart. It is supposed by those conversant • t 1 ' wi i the car that M 'Gennigal had been in the cellar on Saturday ' e last, and had been indulging too freely in the evening still, when the liquor overpowered him, and that pr od u ce of (lie connected with the illegal traffic bad taken the the parties of ridding themselves of the body.

This idea is so very absurd, that it scarcely calls for a direct negative, the early hour at which the train leaves is, we thick, sufficient to prove the folly of this report.
