L. H., with the view of curtailing some of the Branches of his Business, has decided upon disposing of his Stock of CHANDELIERS FOR GAS, OIL, &e., and begs to inform his Friends and the Public, that the Stock has not only been completely reassorted, but the whole of the prices have been very considerably reduced, thereby offering every pos sible inducement to give him the preference in selection. Articles of the best manufacture have been marked at prices so low, that those of the most inferior description could not be purchased at the same rate, even by wholesale. F. L. H. would refer to the following, namely:— Three-light Gas Chandelier, to slide, without fittings 10s. Three-light Ditto, with Globes, Burners, Length-} .62 55. ening Rod, Socket, and Ball, fixed complete Very pretty Chandeliers, for Drawing-rooms, fitted with } S. Glass Drops A full and complete Stock of METAL and GLASS CHANDE LIERS, LAMPS, for the Hall, Vestibule, &c., BRACKETS, GAS PILLARS, and STAIRCASE LIGHTS, comprising every novelty of design and style. Every description of Gas Fittings made to order, and Lamps, Chandeliers, &c., Rebronzed and Relacquered, by first-rate work men, upon the premises. AUREOLE LAMPS. The arrivals for the Season have just been received, combining every variety, from the Plainest to the most Ornamental, and all at the most moderate prices, namely : Complete, with the best mechanism and all the latest improve ments, with Globe, Chimney, and Cottons, At 155., 18s. Gd., 255., 2Ss., to .425 each. Every description of LAMPS, FOR OIL AND CANDLES, FOR SHIP USE AND DOMESTIC PURPOSES. A large Stock of PURE COLZA OIL, IMPoRTED DIRECT FROM TIIE CONTINENT, kept entirely for the accommodation of F. L. H.'s customers, as pure, unadulterated Oil cannot be obtained in the English market. The Aureole Lamp Navin, entirely superseded the Solar Lamp in England, F. L. H. offers his remaining Stock of SOLAR LAMPS to Exporters to the Colonies, &c., where the coarse' descriptions of Oil only can be obtained. The Lamps will be offered IN LOTS, FOR SHIPMENT, CONSIDERABLY BELOW THE ACTUAL COST, and all the Fittings which may he required, at Wholesale Cost Prices. __ _ F. L. H. takes the opportunity of stating, that those Persons who may hitherto have been deterred from visiting his Establish ment, by its great extent and the valuable Collection of Goods, are not aware that, by overcoming this impression (in reality a prejudice), the result would be most advantageous to them, as they would find that they could purchase Articles of a better qua lity, and at Lower Prices, then at any other Establishment. He considers it almost superfluous to add, that, whether they make purchases or otherwise, they will, in every case, be received with politeness and attention. F. L.

A CURIOUS INCIDENT CONNECTED WITH THE LATE EXCITEMENT IN SUGAR.—Some ten days since, it was re ported that part of a cargo of Barbadoes sugar put up to auction in Cork had realized an average of 745, per cwt., duty paid. It created no small conversation, both here and in London, for at the time the sugar could have been purchased in either of those markets for 10s. per cwt. less. It now turns out that the sale did actually take place, but under the following amusing circumstances ; at least we have the information from an undeniable authority, and we think the sequel will go far to prove the accuracy of it. Half an hour before the time the sale was advertised to come off, a telegraph was received in Cork from London, stating the position of the Tallow market, and that there was much excite ment at 675. 6d. per cwt. for Spring delivery. Unfortunately for the buyers, it happened that the paragraph was inserted after the word Sugar instead of Tallow, and away they went ding, dong, thinking that prices were going up to 100 s. ! indeed we are informed that there was a regular scramble. The London market had risen ss. in the course of the day, and why should not the Cork market advance 10s. ? The retail price was immediately put up ld. per lb.; but next morning, on receipt of their English letters, they found out the delusion they had been labouring under, and, we hear, have reduced the price to the former stndard. Verily this reminds us of the old proverb—" Most haste, less speed." CONCERT AT ST. GEORGE'S HALL.—We understand a very attractive concert is to take place in St. George's Great Hall, on Friday next. The concert is to be given by the young Spanish pianiste, Mademoiselle D' Herbil, of whom we have heard no small commendation. She is quite a child, not seven years' old ; yet, if we are to believe the reports of those competent to form an opinion, she possesses much natural talent and great facility of execution. The programme is a highly pleasing one, and the various executants who will appear give promise of a rich musical treat. The only name new to us is that of Madame Bernardi, a Spanish vocalist of eminence. The concert, which will be principally instru mental, will afford several local professors of standing an opportunity of testing the Hall for the first time. Messrs. Baeteus, Lidel, and W. B. Rogers will introduce a string trio, besides, in all probability, some solos. Mr. Streather's harp cannot fail to delight as it has ever done ; and the noble organ, in the hands of Mr. Best, will discourse most excellent music. Altogether, we have seldom seen a more promising affair ; and we hope the experiment! of low prices will be as successful as the organ performances have been hitherto. Advices from Matamoras state that from four to five thou sand men had been ordered by the Mexican government to the northern frontiers, to repel the Texan rangers. Vidauri was appointed Commander-in-Chief on the Rio Grande, and had ordered the commanding officer at Matamoras to discharge the National vhiaodl a addressedt on o G f u m a r ae d xsni, note atentt which oe rsr t tc h or ere territory, a ra t yn t e di‘ r ic ri a f c u ryg ,e charging t p o h b lea e i ycno. commander g V mo i a d fn a at u he ri re at Fort Duncan with connivance,with the filibusters.

TESTIMONIALS. From Sir John Benson, Architect of the Dublin Exhibition. Monte Moth, Cork, March 17, 1854. GENTLEMEN With this I send a Bank letter of credit for Kitchener. lam happy to state that the Range has proved most satisfactory, works remarkably well, and the consumption of fuel is not half what the old range we had consumed. I am, Gentlemen, your obedient Servant. Messrs. Harrison and Co. JOHN BENSON. 2, Parliament-terrace, Liverpool, Sept. 14, 1855. I have had one of Harrison's Leamington Kitcheners put up in my kitchen, which has been in daily use nearly three months, and I do not hesitate to state my conviction that it is by far the best thing of the kind yet extant. It is more cleanly in its opera tions than any other range—it is more perfect in roasting and baking—its consumption of coal is so small, that in two, or at the furthest, in three years, it will save in fuel the cost of its outlay; and lastly, though by no means least, it is a certain cure for a smoky chimney, and this alone is worth all its cost. My cook states, that after a little attention at first, it is managed with the greatest ease, and she desires noshing better. It bakes our bread admirably, and never fails. Altogether I regard it as a great domestic comfort. J. C. MOTT. 37, South Castle-street, Liverpool, Sept. 14, 1855. have had from you one of Harrison's Leamington Kitcheners, which has been put up in my kitchen. I have given the same a fair trial, as it has been in use for three months. It bakes and roasts well; in fact, I am pleased with it in all respects, particularly as it keeps the kitchen clean and free from smoke. If any of my friends should want anything of the kind, I will not forget to recommend your Kitchener.-1 remain, dear Sir, respectfully, JOHN COWAN. To Mr. Ashworth, Agent for Harrison's Leamington Kitchener. Old Fox Inn, Hale-street, Dale-street, Oct. 26, 1855. SIR,—I am happy to bear my testimony to the economy and efficiency of the Harrison's Kitchener" which you have put up on my premises. It is cleanly and powerful in operation, and is more easily managed than any other thing of the kind I have seen. It works well with cheap fuel, and does a great deal of cooking, with little consumption of coal.—Yours obediently, THOMAS LLOYD. To Mr: Ashworth, Agent for " Harrison's Kitchener." Bolton Eating-house, Derby-square, Oct. 26th, 1855. SIR S 1 have pleasure in communicating to you how admirable "Harrison's Kitchener" works,.which you put up on my pre mises two months since. Upwards of two hundred and fifty gentlemen dine at my Es tablishment daily, and I find that I can, by the use of your Kitchener, cook in the most satisfactory manner, all the varieties of Dishes for so numerous an extent of guests. In Baking, Boiling, and Roasting, it works admirably, and for Steaming and the other culinary purposes of my Kitchen I find it equally suitable. It is excellent as a preventative of smoke, is very eco nomical as regards the consumption of fuel, and keeps up a continual and ample supply of hot water for all the purposes of the establishment. —I am, yours, very respectfully, HENRY BUDDING. To Mr. Ashworth, Agent for Harrison's Patent Kitchener. The Dive Restaurant, Chapel-street, Oct. 26th, 1855. Stß,—Having had ample opportunity of ascertaining the great value and convenience of Harrison's Kitchener, when operating on a very large scale, while I was employed as head-waiter in the late Mr. Feeny's Merchants' New Dining Rooms, I resolved, on opening a Restaurant on my own account, to have one. I have accordingly had one of your Crimean Ranges put up. It is, of course, greatly less in immediate capability than that to which I RamlCKglaHdlCtol(MslyN it froman a ers London. equally have already referred FREDERICK E I as well as the large one in respect of economy of fuel, facility of operation, and general convenience and cleanlines I S.—. am, your most obedient servant, To Mr. Ashworth, Agent for the Patent Kitcheners. 1 134, Falkner-stre e t, Li verpoo l , S ept. 15, 1855. I have much pleasure in testifying to the admirable perform ance of one of" Harrison's" Leamington Kitcheners, put up in my house about three months since. I have found it perfect in all its arrangements for cooking. Its utility, cleanliness, and freedom from all smoke and dust forms an agreeable contrast to stoves formerly in use. In addition to this, its small consumption, of coal must in a short time save its 1 entire expense. Any person unaccustomed to its use would scarcely believe its capability with the small quantity of fuel consumed. The skill and civility of Mr. Harrison's workmen employed in .its erection, are much to be commended. J. WILLIAMS. Litherland-park, November 15, 1855. DEAR Sta,—By the favourable report of friends who have your " Leamington" Kitchener in use, I was induced to have one put up in my kitchen. I find it fully answers the reports I had of it. It is most efficient in roasting and baking, is cleanly in use and prevents smoke. In addition to which, it keeps us fully sup plied with hot or boiling water. I shall have much pleasure an recommending it to my friends.— I am, yours. sincerly, ~ ARLES TetiMEAU. To Mr. Ashworth, Agent for the Leamington Kitchener. Merchants' New Dining Rooms, Slater-court, Castle-street, Liverpool, March 10, 1855. As Proprieter of the above Rooms, I have much pleasure in bearing testimony to the great capabilities of Mr. Harrison's Kitchener which is erected on my premises; it is, under proper management, able to cook for 1,200 to 1,500 persons in three hours. DAVID ANDERSON. Liverpool. March, 1955. I have been, during the last two months, head cook at the Merchants' New Dining Rooms, and during that time have used the Kitchener belonging to that establishment. It performs all the operations of cooking with the certainty of result and a speed which I have not been able to find united, to anything like the same extent, in any other apparatus of the kind. I may further add, that it is an economical means of preparing all kinds of food, especially on a large scale, while it is in principle so complete as to fit equally well for the requirements of the mansion or cottage. WILLIAM EDWARDS. Durham Ox, Brownlow-hill, 10th Nov. 1855. DEAR SI R,--1 am happy to say that the " Leamington Kitchener" which you have put up for me fully answers the expectations I had formed of it from the representations of it which I had heard. I find it exceedingly useful in roasting and baking; and what renders it particularly valuable to me is, that it supplies me with an abundance of hot water. It is effectual in preventing smoke, and I find it very economical.—l am, dear sir, yours truly, JOHN SYKES To Mr. Arhworth, Agent for the Leamington Kitchener. 22, Leece•street, Nov. 14, 185 g. DEAR have much pleasure in informing you that my "Leamington Kitchener" gives us the greatest satisfaction. It roasts and bakes admirably, gives us plenty of hot water, is a great saving in fuel, and a sure preventive of a smoky chimney. —Yours truly, WILLIAM miIiRHEAD.

Its operation was in every respect satisfactory to me. The whole was at all times entirely at command ; and I could at pleasure retain any of the dishes in the desired state, as to heat or otherwise. In short, I found the apparatus at once efficient and tractable,—l am, Sir, yours respectfully, SARAH MOORE. To Mr. Ashworth, Agent for the Leamington Kitchener. Doctor Syntax, College-lane, 14th Nov., 1855. DEAR SIR,—I have given the " Leamington Kitchener," which I had from you, a three months' trial, and I can, with the greatest pleasure. recommend it to my friends.
