THE VOCAL MUSIC, _Nl:tally attributed to Matthew Lucke, but which antiquarian re "arch has proved to be the composition of John Eccles, will be r etained, on account of its great beauty, character, and popularity, t hough not appertaining to the original text.

The very uncertain information possessed respecting the Dress 'Korn by the inhabitants of Scotland in the eleventh century, !tatters the attiring of the characters in Macbeth a task of very peat difficulty. The nobles and common people wore mantles of one sort, long 'alid flowing, and shaggy rugs. The nobles wore mantles of yule tated colours ; the common people mantles of a brown colour, tear to the colour of heather. They wore no stockings, but tines, made of the skins of deers or other animals. Many of t ,ne Scotch went with bare heads, allowing their hair to grow very o ne. The Scottish female habit consisted of a long robe, girdled round the waist, with a full and flowing mantle, denominated the THE ARMOUR AND WEAPONS. By Mr. BROMLEY. -The ancient Scottish weapons were the spear, the battle-axe, the bo w , a nd the sword, (cleadbeamh-more.) Their defensive bill's shirt of ring mail, and round targets covered with Tire eagle hide, and studded with nai:s, and bosses of brass or iron. eagle feather in the helmet was the distinguishing mark of a "mv p _ kain. - - The armour of the English forces is copied from the ',."Yeui tapestry. ..1` • „ THE MACHINERY, - which fa of a moat elaborate description, has been made under the direction of Mr. B.

ASPINALL'S EAST INDIA PALE ALE AND BITTER ALE. This fine-flavoured and much-esteemed ALE, so IrgeTy in demand during the Christmas of 1851. Christmas 1852, and Clirist mas 1853 and 1851, is again in fine condition for Christmas 1855; in Casks of 9, IS, and 34 Gallons—strong or mild.

Dr. Brett's Opinion of Aspina.l.'s Preston Pans Beer, Mild Pale Ale, and East India Pale Ale, brewed at • the Anchor Brewery, Birkenhead; - "Laboratory, Royal Infirmary, Liverpool, Dec., 1852. " I have, at the request of al r. H. IC. Aspinail, of the Anchor Brewery, Birkenhead, sulanitted to a careful chemical examina tion three descriptions of Beer, called respectively Preston Pans Beer, Mild Pale Ale, anti East India Pale Ale. lam decidedly of opinion that they are very wholesome beverages, and contain no j other ingredients than those found in pure malt liquors. They have been very well fermented, and consequently - do cot contain any ainount of unfermented sugar, frequently found in some descriptions of Me; and being also free from any excess•of inucila ginotts matters capable of acting as ferments, they are remarkably bright, and retain that brightness to the last Several medical friends of mine have expressed a very favourable opinion as re lards their quality.

Mt: 45 4 . . " Dear Sir,—Having undertaken , at your reques t, a research, upon your different Beers, videlicit—East India Pale Me, Mild Pale Ale, India Pale Ale, Preston Pans Beer, I feel happy in for warding you the annexed results. The sitting nature of the chemical examination to which your Malt Liquors have been subjected, establishes their incontestible purity; they do not contain a particle of any injurious substance. I must confess I was not a little surprised to find that such excellent Beers were brewed in the vicinity of Liverpool. It proves in a most satis factory manner that you have exercised much care in the selection of the best kind of Hops and Malt, and that you possess great . scientific skill in conducting the several important stages through which these have to pass. I was very much struck with the India Pale Ale, twelve months old. It is extremely bright, sparkling, and refreshing, and must act as an excellent tonic, and, I am sure, will be relished by alt those seeking an agreeable and beneficial anodyne bitter, which tends to preserve the rigour of tae stomach, anti conduces, oftentimes, to the restoration of the health of that organ, when .debilitated. Your Preston Pans ' Beer is a very nice light beverage, having a peculiar but fine flavour, which must be greatly relished by many families. The East India Pale Ale and the Mild Pale Ale are like the above well fermented, and made from the beat and most wholesome in -1 gredients, therefore are sure to command popularity. In con eluding, I am glad to tell you that, having now tasted your Ales. I shall in future use them in my house, as they are fully equal to any I have analysed.—l am, Sir, yours respectfully, " SHERIDAN siuspnArr, F.R.S., _ _ " Mr. Henry K. Aspinall. " Professor of Chemistry." The demand for this fine-flavoured ALE is greatly on the in crease, Merchants, Bottlers, and Hotel keepers finding it equal in flavour, colour, and quality to the finest Burton-brewed Ales, and at Prices very considerably less than any similar Ale now en the market. It is warranted to keep sound in ood or Bottle for years, and never changes its brilliancy of colour. It improves by long keeping.

"Sir.—Please to send me another quarter-barrel of Preston Pans Beer, directing it, as before, per B. L., and C. Railway, to Frodsham. "The barrel which I have now on draught is giving every satisfaction, continuing quite sound and brisk, though it has now been more than six weeks on draught. I use a vent-peg which closes of itself, with a spring, so that the beer cannot be left ex posed to the air throtigh the carelessness of servants. " I suppose you do not require that empty caske should always be returned literally within three months, for this I could not always do, as a quarter-barrel genes illy lasts from eight to ten weeks on draught, and I like to have it on the stillion fora couple of weeks before I begin to use it.

It has been the lot of the human race to be weighed down by disease and suffering. HOLLOWAY'S PILLS are specially adapted to the relief of the weak, the netvoug, the delicate, and the infirm, of all clirna, ages, sexes, and constitutions. Professor. Holloway personally superintends the manufacture of his medicines, and offers them to a free and enlightened people, as the best remedy the world ever saw for the removal of disease. THESE PILLS PURIFY THE BLOOD. nese famous Pills are expressly combined to operate on the stomach, the liver, the kidneys, the lucks, the skin, and the bowels, correcting any derangement in their functions, purifying the blood, the very fountain of life, and thus curing disease in all its forms. DYSPEPSIA AND LIVER COMPLAINTS. Nearly half the human race have taken these Pills. It has been proved in all parts of the world, that nothing has been found equal to them in cases of disorders of the liver, dyspepsia, and stomach complaints generally. They soon give a healthy tone to those organs, however much deranged, and when all other means have failed. GENERAL DEBILITY.—ILL HEALTH. Many of the most despotic governments have opened their Custom-houses to the introduction of these Pills, that they may become the medicine of the masses. Learned'Colleges admit that this medicine is the best remedy ever known for persons of deli.: cate health, or where the system has been impaired, as its invi gorating properties never fail to affezd relief. FEMALE. COMPLAINTS. - - - • -- • - - - No female, young or old, siould be without this celebrated me dicine. It corrects and regulates at all periods, acting in many cases like a charm. 11 is also the best and safest medicine that can be given to children of all ages, and for any complaint; con sequently no family should be without it. SICK lIF.AD-ACHE,VOMITING, AND GENERAL DEBILITY EXTRAORDINARY CURE . _ The daughter of Jameslage, of Vronheulog, Llanfihangel, ix miles from Llanfyllin,Carmarthenshire, was afflicted for a long time with general debility, suffering from sick headache, laugour, vomiting, sinking at the pit of the stomach, and the thousand and one other evils of a generally deranged system. She was under medical treatment for a long t►me, but unfortunately was not be nefited thereby—and every other remedy tailed. The father then put her through a course of Holloway's Pills, and after perse vering for a short time according to the directions, the bloom of health again appeared upon her countenance, and she was com pletely cured, to the astonishment of all who knew her.

" We hereby certify that we have this day witnessed some very highly satisfactory experiments at Milners' Phoenix Safe Works, proving the perfect security of their newly-patented `Gunpowder proof Solid Locks and Safe Doors,' against attempts to force the same open with gunpowder ; the door of another safe, experi- Merited upon, fitted with the open six-lever and detector lock. although of equal strength, being shattered and blown off by the explosion of the gunpowder introduced through the key-hole.— Wm.

CAUTlON.—Milners' Holdfast Safes are of three qualities— the cheapest superior to any other safes—and range under three Lists, namely, Milners' Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe, List No. 2, at 10s. per foot ; Milners' Strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Ssfe, List No. 3, at 15s. per foot; Milners' First-class Strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe, List No. 4, at 20s. per foot. The public are deceived by comparisons being made between the prices of the latter superb class of Milners' Safes and the inferior articles offered by incompetent makers to bookcellers, ironmon gers, brokers, or any others who will incur the serious responsibi lity of selling them, which are really worthless articles, and dear at any price.

CURE OF 29 YEARS' ASTHMATIC COUGH. Middleton, near Manchester. Sta,-1 am now 44 years of age, and I have been afflicted with an asthmatic cough since 1 was a boy of fifteen years of age; during that time 1 have resorted to every means in my power to remove it, but in vain, until last Sunday, when I sent for a small box of Dr. Locock'a Wafers. I have taken two boxes since, and from the effects they have had upon me, I feel no doubt of a speedy recovery. G. STRINGER. Witness—M. Lynch, Chemist, Market-street. RAPID CURE OF ASTHMA OF :4 YEARS' STANDING. From Mr. J. E. Bignell,•Hopyleadßoad, Wednesbury, and ad- dressedto Ladbury, there. Sin e —When I had the first box of Dr. Locock's Wafers from you. 1 was labouring under one of those attacks of asthma to which I have been subject new for about 14 years. I have had the best medical advice the neighbourhood could afford, including two physicians at Birmingham, and one at Wolverhampton, but with no success. My breathing was so very difficult that I ex pected every inspiration to be my last ; as for steep, that was im possible, and had been so for several weeks. The first dose (only two small wafers) gave me great relief—the second more so—in short, the first box laid the groundwork for the cure, which only four boxes have effected, and I am now quite well. (Signed) J. E. BIONELL. IMPORTANT TO ALL WHO SING. From Mr. Edward Page, Director of the Choir and Organist of St. Peter's‘Citholic Church, Leamington. Gentlemen,—Having frequently suffered much from relaxation of the throat, I have often been obliged to resort to various pre parations; but since I have had the good fortune to try Dr. Locock's Pulmonic Wafers, I ant now but seldom obliged to re sort to them, for the extraordinary good effects they have produced are most surprising. Even when the throat appears to be com pletely exhausted, and the voice to be nearly gone, two or three (at most four) will, in the short space of half an hour or so, com pletely restore its flexibility and power, and they do not act as a mere temporary exciting remedy, nor do they leave any lassitude after. Having felt the great value of the remedy, I feel it a duty to generally recommend it, as I am convinced that all persons will find immense benefit from the general and persevering use of it. EDWARD PAGE. To SINGERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS they are invaluable, as in a few hours they remove all hoarseness, and increase the power and flexibility of the voice. They have a pleasant taste.

It having been reported to the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, by the Local Marine Board of this Port, that the CRIMPAGE SYSTEM prevails to a very great extent at Liverpool, subjecting Seamen not only to a direct charge, ranging from Half-a-crown to Ten Shillings, but also to other gross im positions, their Lordships have DETERMINED to adopt every means in their power to put a stop to a system detrimental to every interest connected with the MERCANTILE MARINE, but especially to that of the SEAMAN. They have therefore DETERMINED to institute LEGAL PRO CEEDINGS against any party, whether Shipowner, Shipmaster, or Crimp, who shall infringe either of the following provisions of the Merchant Shipping Act. The Sections of the Merchant Shipping Act above referred to are the 147th and 148th, which provide as follows : " 147. The following offences shall be, punishable as herein • after mentioned (that is to say): "(1) If any Person not licensed as aforesaid, other than the Owner or Master or a Mate of the Ship, or some Person who is bona fide the Servant, and in the constant Employ of the Owner, or a Shipping Master duly appointed as aforesaid, engages or supplies any Seaman or Apprentice to be entered on board any Ship in the United Kingdom, he shall for each Seaman or Appren tice so engaged or supplied incur a Penalty not exceeding TWENTY POUNDS. "(2) If any Person employs any unlicensed Person, other than Persons so excepted as aforesaid, for the purpose of engaging or supplying any Seamen or Apprentice to be entered on board any Ship in the United Kingdom, he shall for each Seaman or Appren tice so engaged or supplied incur a Penalty not exceeding TWENTY POUNDS, and if licensed shall in addition forfeit his license. "(3) If any person knowingly receives or accepts to be entered on board any Ship any Seaman or Apprentice who has been en gaged or supplied contrary to the Provisions of this Act, he shall for every Seaman or Apprentice so engaged or supplied incur a Penalty not exceeding TWENTY POUNDS. "148. If any Person demands or receives, either directly or in directly, from any Seaman or Apprentice, or from any Person seeking Employment as a Seaman or Apprentice, or from any Person on his behalf, any Remuneration for . providing him with Employment, he shall for every such Offence incur a Penalty not exceeding FIVE POUNDS." Whilst every exertion will be made to put an end to the illegal practices at present employed in engaging Seamen, every facility will, at the same time, be afforded to Shipowners, Shipmasters, anti Overlookers, In providing Crews. And all such parties who may meet with any difficulties in thus engaging Crews, as well as Seamen who may experience any obstruction in attempting to obtain employment, are invited immediately to communicate the grounds of their complaint to the Head Shipping Master, who will promptly investigate the same.
