SASSAFRAS CHOCOLATE. D R. DE LA MOTTE'S NUTRITIVE, HEALTH RESTORING AROMATIC CHOCOLATE, PREPARED FROM THE NUTS of the SASSAFRAS TREE. Sold by the Patentee, 12, Southampton-streetrtrand, London. This CHOCOLATE contains the peculiar virtues of the Sas safras Root, which has long been 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 this property 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 artses 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. Liverpool Agent :—Mr. F. G. JONES, Paten; Medicine Ware house, 5, Paradise-street. TO MOTHERS AND NURSES. MRS. JOHNSON'S AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP, FOR CHILDREN CUTTING THEIR TEETH. THIS infallible Remedy has preserved hundred s o f Children when thought past recovery from Convulsions arising from painful dentition. As soon as the Syrup is rubbed on the, Gums, the Child will be relieved, the Gums cooled, and the inflammation reduced. It is as innocent as efficacious, tending to produce the Teeth with ease; and so pleasant, that no Child will refuse to let its Gums be rubbed with it. When infants are at the age of four months, the Syrup should be rubbed on the Gums ; and Parents should never be without the Syrup in the Nursery where there are young children; for if a Child wakes in the night with pains in the Gums, the Syrup immediately gives ease; thereby preventing Convulsions, Fevers, &c.—The great success of this Medicine during the last 25 Years has induced unprincipled persons to imitate it, under the name of American Soothing Syrup, and copying parts of Mrs. Johnson's Bills, &c. Parents will, there fore, be very particular to ask for JOHNSON'S AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP, and to notice that the Names of 'BAR CLAY and SONS, 95, Farringdon-street, London, (to whom Mrs. Johnson has sold ie recipe,) are on the Stamp affixed on each Bottle. BY HER MAJESTY'S ROYAL LETTERS PATENT. FAIRBANKS' WEIGHING MACHINES, with or without POOLEY'S NEW PATENTED IMPROVEMENTS, adapted for Shops, Wharfs, Roads, and Railwai s. HENRY POOLEY AND SON, 27, MANCHESTER-STREET, LIVERPOOL, CONTINUE THE 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. 111.—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, mad 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, having a professed 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 ?RILES FULLY AS LOW AS THE IMITATION, Thus placing it within the reach of every Trader. MESSRS. POOLEY AND SON are Makers to the Hon. Board of Ordnance, and by special appointment to the London and North-Western, the Midland, and other leading Railway Companies. Ironmongers and the Trade supplied on liberal terms. ESTABLISHED IN THE YEAR 1822. PRIESTLEY'S CONCENTRATED DECOCTION OR FLUID EXTRACT OF THE FINEST JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA. THIS most efficient and agreeable Preparation of 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 snore 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 AROMATIC TONIC TINCTURE, a pleasant and agreeable remedy for Indigestion, loss of Appe tite, Wind, Flatulency, and all complaints arising from inward debility, Weakness, &c. 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 twenty-four Powders. PRIESTLEY'S QUININE AND SARgAPARILLA. This preparation of Quinine, from the combination of the Sarsaparilla, is a remedy superior to any Medicine hitherto recommended in cases of Debility, Nervousness, local and general Weaknem, 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., I ls., and 225. N.B.—Upon receipt of a Post-office Order, a bottle, carefully packed up, can be sent to any part of the country. PRIESTLEY'S COUGH AND ASHMATICAL DROPS, FOR COUGHS, COLDS, ASTHMAS, CONSUMPTIONS, &C. &C. This invaluable Medicine immediately relieves Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness. Difficulty 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 LUNGS. Persons troubled with ASTHMA are considerably 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 COUGH, 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. Sold only at 52. Lord-street, Liverpool, in Bottles,at 2s. 9d., and 4s. 6d. ESSENCE OF RENNET, FOR MAKING DELICIOUS CURDS AND WHEY.

GREAT FIRE IN MARKET-STREET, MANCHESTER ; ENTIRELY CONSUMING A LARGE SQUARE OF WARE HOUSES, OFFICES, AND SHOPS. TN 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 ssrvant, "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 the Fire, was found to contain nothing but tinder and ashes after it 1 In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests which Miners' 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 working 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 secure depositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables ; in cluding the strongest Wrought-iron Safes, Closets, and Doors in the World. lined with their uneoualled 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. Fire at Mr. .1. Blackaller's Ship and Chandlery Store, Spar ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierc Fire; Safe most severely burnt outside • contents unsinged. kwe at Messrs. J. and W.
