II Copy of a Letter from Mr. J. J. Wilson, Chemist, Monk Bar, York : . - " TO MR. THOMAS PROUT. " 14th June, 1847. " SlR,—Having suffered most dreadfully for the last six years from repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no bene fit from the best medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. When I commenced taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were very much swoollen and inflamed: 1 was suffering the most intense agony. I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke in the morning comparatively free from pain ; and before I had finished the box, I never was better in my life : they have not only entirely removed the gout, but have also very much improved my gene ral health. I have since recommended them to four individuals, who have suffered much from gout and rheumatism ; and they all speak highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think my case worthy of insertion amongst the many cures effected by your wonderful medicine, you are at perfect liberty to publish it.—l am, Sir, yours respectfully, " J. J. WILSON." The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheu matism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and certain relief. They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other vital part.

HENRY POOLEY AND SON, 27, MANCHESTER-STREET, LIVERPOOL, CONTINUE , r HE SOLE MAKERS UNDER THE PATENT. Some of their advantages are— I.—Economy in Price ; to the extent of from 25 to 40 per cent. ll.—Economy in Time and Labour ;—only the one hun dredth part of the weights is required to be lifted; one-half of the time occupied in weighing is entirely saved. M.—Economy in Space ;—they have only one Platform or Scale; no fixtures are required for suspension; no room is oc cupied by weights. IV.—Economy in Annual Expense ;—they require less pe riodical adjustment ; the centres are detached from their bearings, and of course exempt from wear, except at the mo ment of ascertaining the weight. As a Weigh-bridge for weighing Wagons on common roads, and for Trucks or Wagons on Railways, this Machine is pe. culiarly adapted. It may be fixed, if required, in a pit only fifteen inches deep; it occupies only half the usual space in the office; it is more exact in its indications than any of the old kinds of Weigh-bridges. The celebrity of FAIRBANKS' MACHINES, OF POOLEY'S MANUFACTURE has induced many imitations, h av i ng a p ro fessed and specious resemblance, at a low price. To guard the Public from imposi tion, and the invention from losing its high standing by the hands of incompetent makers, THE TRUE MACHINE IS NOW OFFERED AT PRICES FULLY AS LOW AS THE IMITATION, -- Thus placing it within the reach of every Trader.

SASSAFRAS CHOCOLATF. DR. DE LA MOTTE'S nutritive, health-restoring AROMATIC CHOCOLATE, prepared from the Nuts of the Sassafras Tree. This Chocolate contains the peculiar vir tues of the Sassafras Root, which has been long held in great estimation for its purifying and alterative properties. The aromatic quality (which is very grateful to the stomach) most invalids require for breakfast and evening repast, to promote digestion; and to a deficiency of thisproperty in the customary breakfast and supper may, in a great measure, be attributed the frequency of cases of indigestion generally termed bilious. It has been found highly beneficial in correcting the state of the digestive organs, &c., from whence arise many diseases, such as eruptions of the skin, gout, rheumatism, and scrofula. In cases of debility of the stomach and a sluggish state of the liver and intestines, occasioning flatulence, costiveness, &c., and in spasmodic asthma, it is much recommended. Sold in pound packets, by the PATENTEE, 12, Southampton street, Strand, London; also by Chemists. Mr. F. G.

The system which has gained for D. MYERS so much applause, viz., that of manufacturing the best Garments and charging the very lowest prices possible, is still and will ever be strictly adhered to by him. D.

T - - - HIS most efficient and a greea bl e P reparat i on o f that well-known and valuable alterative, JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA, is prepared by a peculiar and scientific method, by which the whole of the aromatic and volatile parts are preserved ; and the experience of many . years has fully established the reputation of this Medicine, as containing more of the virtues of the root than any other preparation. Its beneficial effects have been par ticularly striking in the following complaints : Nocturnal Pains in the Limbs, Scrofulous Enlargement of the Glands, Cutaneous Affections, Chronic Rheumatism, &c., &c. ; in free ing the system after a course of Mercury its beneficial effects are very powerful. It purifies the blood, and by giving to the cutaneous-vessels a healthy and regular action, it removes that disposition to Erysipilatous Inflammation from which so many persons periodically suffer; and when taken in the Spring and Fall of the Year as an Alterative Medicine, it will be found to impart that strength to the constitution which is indicated by firmness of flesh, good appetite, and freshness of the com plexion. Prepared and sold only by JOHN PRIESTLEY, 52, Lord street, Liverpool, in Bottles at Ils., 225., and 335. per Bottle.

PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS, which approach nearer than anything yet discovered to the Chalybeate Waters of Germany. The style of preparing PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS is peculiar to himself and combine scientific skill with great accuracy; and though num bers of people unacquainted with the business, and others, have of late years attempted imitations, they have invariably been found to be spurious compounds, neither possessing the agree able flavour nor the medicinal preperties of the Seidlitz Waters. _ _ _ Sold in Boxes, 2s. each, containing twenti : fo7 Powders. PRIESTLEY'S QUININE AND SARSAPARILLA. This preparation of Quinine, from the compination of the Sarsaparilla, is a remedy superior to any Medicine hitherto recommended in cases of Debility, Nervousness, local and general Weakness, Languor, Lethargy, Lowness of Spirits, In digestion, Loss of Appetite, Loss of Flesh, Approaching Decline, and all Impurities of the Blood. In re-establishing the health, this Medicine stands pre-eminent. Sold in bottles at 4s. 6d., 11s., and 225.

This invaluable Medicine immediately relieves Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Di ffi culty of Breathing, and Huskiness in the Throat. These Drops are also the best preventative that can be taken against SPITTING OF BLOOD, and AFFECTION Of the LITNna. Persons troubled with ASTHMA are consMerably relieved by taking a few doses of the Drops, as they tend to promote expectoration and remove viscid phlegm. For the speedy cure of the HOOFING Conon, they are no less efficacious. Those who are troubled with that unpleasant tickling in the Throat, which deprives them of rest night after night, by the incessant Cough which it provokes, will, by . taking one dose, find im mediate relief; and one bottle, in most cases, will effect a cure.

GREAT FIRE IN MARKET-STREET, MANCHESTER ; ENTIRELY CONSUMING A LARGE SQUARE OF WARE HOUSES, OFFICES, AND SHOPS. IN the last great Fire in George-street, Manchester, nine large Houses had their Books burned in Iron Safes, Closets with Iron Doors, Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) Safes, &c. &c. &c. ; and again on the above recent occasion, a great number of parties have suffered the same,calamity. The only Safe which brought its contents uninjured out of the burning mass being the one alluded to below. " Manchester, August 13th, 1847. " GENTLEMEN In the late Fire in Market-street, which entirely gutted the entire block of buildings of which my Ware house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you that my books, together with a quantity of valuable papers, watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire resisting Safes, which I strongly recommend to the public. " I am your obedient servant, " THOMAS HAIGH, Woollen Merchant, " New Brown-street and Market-street. " Messrs. Milner and Son." The outside of this Safe was partially melted: the contents inside unsinged, being steamed (boiled instead of burned) by the evaporating principle of the Safe. Near to it a large Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) chambered Safe, full of valuable Books and Documents before th e Fi re , was found to contain nothing but tinder and ashes after it ! In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests which Milners' Safes have been exposed to —every description of Safe in use—Fireproof (so called) or otherwise have been burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the scientific and practical authorities who have tested them, and the Patentees' during seven years' active wor ki ng of their patent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains nor cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete and seethe depositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables ; in cluding the strongest Wrought-iron Safes, Closets, and Doors in the World. lined with their uneaualled Fire-resisting Cham bers. Out of upwards of 20.000 of their Sates in use amongst the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses of Great Britain— the class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of exposure to accidental fire have occurred, from which Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they are of opinion that no other Safe than their own would have preserved its contents unburnt. Ere at Mr. J. Blackaller's Ship and Chandlery Store, Spar ling-street, Liverpool ; a sti ong and fierc Fire; Safe most severely burnt outside • contents unsinged. F're at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders, Birkenhead ; buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in them, including the contents of large Iron Safe and drawers, statiding besides Milners'; the contents of Milners' uninjured, and in use now. Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong fire ; again the contents of Milners' Safe the only thing saved on the premises. Fire at Plimsaul Brothers', of Plymouth; a very extensive and destructive fire; a large Iron Safe covered with brickwork with double Iron doors burnt out; Milners' entirely preserving its contents.

S IKES' ORIENTAL CAMPHOR TOOTH PASTE. The premature decay of the TEETH ttilses from various causes, but chiefly from early neglect, ill health, and the use of Tooth Powders containing Mineral and other Acids, which give a temporary whiteness to the Teeth, while they quickly corrode the enamel. This Paste imparts to Teeth, however foul and discoloured, a pearly whiteness, a healthy redness and firm ness to the Gums, eradicates Scurvy, and, from its aromatic quality, sweetens the breath, and will be found highly refresh ing to the mouth after its use.

THE high and universal celebrity whi c h ATKIN SON'S ROYAL INFANT'S PRESERVATIVE continues to maintain, as a safe and agreeable medicine, renowned for its efficacy in preventing or . removing the disorders to which in fancy is liable, affording instant relief in convulsions, flatulency, affections of the bowels, difficult teething, the thrush, rickets, measles, hooping- . cough, cowpox, or va cc i ne i noculat i on, and may be given with safety immediately after birth. It is no misnomer cordial I —no stupefactive, deadly narcotic !—but a veritable preservative of infants ! Mothers would do well in always keeping it in the nursery. Many thousands of children are annually saved by this much-esteemed medicine, which is an immediate remedy, and the infants rather like it than other wise. In short, whether this medicine enters the palace or the cottage, the proprietor feels an honest conviction of its power to assuage maternal pain for infant suffering—to convert that pain into gladness, that suffering into balmy repose. It is equally efficacious for children or adults, in English cholera, spasms, pain into the bowels, and other complaints of the in testines, owing to wind or obstructions in - the digestive organs. It is highly recommended by the faculty.

SIR,—I have the pleasure to inform you that, Stuart A. Do naldson, Esq., an eminent Merchant and Agriculturist, and also a Magistrate of this Town, called on me on the 18th inst., and purchased your Medicines to the amount of FOURTEEN POUNDS to be forwarded to his Sheep Stations in New England. He stated that one of his Overseers had come to Sydney some time previously for medical aid, his disorder being an affection of the Liver and Kidneys—that he had placed the man for three months under the care of one of the best Surgeons, with out any good resulting from the treatment; the man then in despair used your Pills and Ointment, and much to his own and Mr. Donaldson's astonishment, was completely restored to his health by their means. Now this surprising cure was effected in about ten days. (Signed) J. K. HEYDON. THE EARL OF ALDBOROUGH CURED OF A LIVER AND STOMACH COMPLAINT. Extract of a Letter from the Earl of Aldborough, dated Villa Messina, Leghorn, 21st February, 1845. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. SlR,—Various circumstances prevented the possibility of my thanking you before this time for your politeness in sending me your pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of send ing you an order for the amount, and, at the same time, to add that your pills have effected a cure of a disorder in my Liver and Stomach, which all the most eminent of the Faculty at home, and all over the Continent, had not been able to effect ; nay, not even the w a t ers of Carlsbad and Marienbad. I wish to have another Box and a Pot of the Ointment, in case any of my family should ever require either. Your most obliged and obedient servant, (Signed) ALDBOROUGH.
