The Green is Small Leaf Gunpowder Tea of the finest kind apd is grown only on one Estate. 4 Captain PIDDING, who has made eight voyages to China, completed arrangements when last at Canton, securing to himself the exclusive importation of these particular Teas. Extract from Dr. Siymond's Lecture on Captain Pidding's Tea before the Med. Bot. Society. " This particular Tea has been very much and very de servedly prised, and has now become a Standard Tea in this Country. (From Dr. James Johnson, M.D., Physician to his late Majesty, &c.) " Suffolk-place, Pall Mall, London. " Sir,—Ever since your Tea was first introduced,myself and family have used it ; indeed, only it, and we have no hesitation in giving it the preference to all others. "Yours, &c., " JAMES JOHNSON, M.D. " To Captain Pidding." CAPTAIN PIDDING'S Teas were formerly sold under the title of " Howqua's Mixture," and '" Howqua's Small Leaf Gunpowder" ; but hundreds of Grocers, anxious to profit by the celebrity of tea which he alone imports, have given the same title to rubbish of their own, so that there is now scarce one but has his " Howqua's," " Mowqua's," " Saoqua's," or some other spurious mixture. Against such imposition, the only security is " CAPTAIN PIDDING'S NAME." This they have not yet forged, andlhis signature is on every really genuine package. Sold in Chinese Catty packages, containing one pound and one-third, nett of Tea, exclusive of lead and paper,—the Black, at the rate of 6s. 4d. per lb. ; the Gunpowder at 9s. per lb. • Half and Quarter Catties in proportion.

FrHIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has , for neary a century, been duly appreciated at CHICHESTER AND THE METROPOLIS.

It will keep in any climate, and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence, improves by age. LE GRAND GOURMAND will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and Calepee, and the temperate man, while be masticates his biscuit over a glass of it, will be constr aine d to eulogise this incomparable Liqueur. " Come and try, Don't like—don't buy," is an old saying and a good one ; and as in matters of taste every man is the best judge, this invitation is given in the full assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

CAUSES OF DEAFNESS IN CHILDREN.—Chronic enlarge ment of the tonsils, by pressing on the eustachian tube, fre quently (particularly in children) causes deafness, In such cases deafness comes on gradually—at first hardly perceived ; but, has it advances, it is observed the patient becomes ap parently inattentive, in truth from not hearing what is said. The cause of the deafness, in such cases, is never (in general) understood, the disease being attributed to some scrofulous affection, extending from the general system to the ear, the scrofulous appearance of children so affected leading the prac titioner to this erroneous conclusion.—Cronin on deafness. THE USE or SNUFF.—With that he thrust his hand into one of the large flaps of his waistcoat, drew out a ponderous gold box, extracted enough from it of a black-looking powder to have charged a musket, and crammed the dust up his left nostril. " May I ask what that stuff is ?" said the Che valier; " I have seen a great number of persons stopping their noses with something of the same kind, as if this country were famous for bad smells, and they wanted to keep them out." " I will tell you what it is, Chevalier," said Mr. Longshanks ; " it is what we call snuff, the powder of a poisonous weed, which by this process is rendered very serviceable to our frailties. I have heard that you think us all mad, but that is a mistake ; we are only foolish. This snuff gives a man something to do when he has nothing ; spares many an empty head the trouble of making an answer ;. gives politicians, hypocrites, and knaves, time to compound a lie when they have not one ready ; furnishes a wise look for a fool's face ; enables men by a grimace to cover an emo tion, and prevents people leading you by the nose, for fear of dirtying their fingers.—The Commissioner. SOLITUDE.—" Go to a desert and clap your back against a cliff. Do you think yourself alone? What a ninny! Your great clumsy splay feet are bruising to death a batch of bee tles. See that spider whom you have widowed, running up and down your elegant leg, in distraction and dispair, be wailing the loss of a husband who, however savage to the ephemerals, had always smiled sweetly upon her. Mean while, your shoulders have crushed a colony of small red ants settled in a moss city beautifully roofed with lichens — and that accounts for the sharp tickling behind your ear, which you keep scratching, no Solomon, in ignorance of the cause of that effect. Should you sit down—we must beg to draw a veil over your hurdies, which at the moment extin guish a fearful amount of animal life—creation may be said to groan under them ; and, insect as you are yourself, you are defrauding millions of insects of their little day. All the while you are supposing yourself al one you not, as we hinted, a prodigious ninny ? But the with owilderness —as you choose to call it—is crawling w'th various life. London, with its million and a half of inhabitants—including of course the suburbs—is, compared with it, an empty joke. Die—and you will be soon picked to the bones. The air swarms with sharpers—and an ins i u o r l r e e s ct o io f n th o e fradicals will earth. attack your corpse from the worm Cor bies, ravens, hawks, eagles, all su tl il le se i t fe t a o th a e i r i e t d iei f p u a r t i e es th o e f m be a a g l . c and bill, will come flying ere gots, and carry your remains—it you will allow us to call whole of Argyleshire in many fh em s o—over the wh living se pulchres.

The individual who was discovered in Windsor Castle on Monday night, under circumstances of great suspicion, was brought to the Home-office, on Thursday, for further exami nation. His real name, it appears, is Thomas Quested, aged 40, and a native of Maidstone. The prisoner was brought to the Home-office shortly before two o'clock in a cab, accompanied by Mr. Gilsby and one of the warders of Tothill-fields prison. He jumped dut of the cab on its arrival at Whitehall, and appeared in excellent spirits, holding up his bundle, which is composed of some old things tied up in a blue cotton pocket-handkerchief, and exhibiting it in a manner as if he supposed that he had obtained a triumph. Since the prisoner's committal to Tothill-fields prison, he has behaved remarkably well, quite calm and collected, except when his title to the peerage is disputed, and then be most clamorously asserts his supposed right. Mr. Hall, chief magistrate at Bow-street, arrived at the Home-office before ten o'clock, and after a short delay the examination commenced. Application was made to the worthy magistrate for those belonging to the public press to be admitted to the inquiry, but Mr. Hall in the most polite and courteous manner informed them that it-would be con trary to the established rules of the office if he was to comply with the request; consequently it was not granted. The following, however, is the substance of what has taken place : The prisoner was visited at Tothill-fields prison by Mr Davies,. surgeon, of King-street, and Mr. 'Wakefield, sur geon to Coldbath-fields prison, and closely examined as to the state of his mind. He appeared perfectly cool and col lected ou every subject but one — viz., that he had a title to the peerage. 'The medical gentlemen inquired what title it was that he thought he had a right to, when he replied, with an air of dignity, " I am Lord Godolphin D'Arcy, and every one knows it." On being questioned at the Home-office, by Mr. Hall, the unfortunate individual persisted in stating that he was Lord Godolphin D'Arcy, that he was unjustly kept out of his rights, and that his visit to Windsor was merely to obtain those rights from the Queen ; and went on to stat e th a t a ll the way down the road to Windsor the people saw as he passed that he was a lord, and knew well that he had a right to the title which he claimed. An uncle of the prisoner, who resides in the neighbourhood of London, and holds a situation in the dockyard, at Wool wich, was in attendance at the Home-office during the in quiry. This person, who is a respectable man, informed the magistrate that the prisoner unfortunately was not the only one of his family who was suffering under an aberration of intellect. He had a sister who was insane ; that the prisoner was an agricultural labourer, but for a length of time had entertained the strange delusion that he was entitled to the peerage—that he was, in fact, Lord Godolphin D'Arcy. When the prisoner was observed in the Castle he was fast asleep on a couch in the footmen's waiting-room ; and when asked how he obtained admittance, he said that he followed , a " potboy," which statement he repeated. It appears that the unfortunate man left Maidstone, or the neighbourhood, on Friday, and walked to Woolwich, where he stopped a short time, and then proceeded to Windsor, going direct to the Castle, when, from fatigue, he fell into a sleep in one of the out-offices, and was ordered off. He then went back to Woolwich, but on arriving there he felt so etn vinced of his rights that he retraced his steps, and obtained in a most extraordinary manner an entrance into the Castle to the footmen's waiting-room, where he was apprehended. There was no further evidence adduced as to the facts at tending the prisoner being found in the Castle. The inquiry , related solely to his state of mind. When he was asked if he did not think that he was labouring under a delusion in thinking himself a lord, lie replied, " No, certainly not; I am a lord." He was then asked if the medical gentleman told him that be was labouring under a delusion on the sub ject, whether he would not believe them and give up his claim to the title he supposed himself to be heir to. The prisoner replied that he would not give up his claim ; the gentlemen did not know so much on the subject as he did; he was Lord Godolphin D'Arcy. After a lengthened examination, no doubt remained but that the unfortunate individual was insane, and the medical gentlemen signed a certificate to that effect. He was then conveyed in a cab to Tothill-fields prison, and an order made out for his committal to Bethlem Hos pital, and as soon as it received the signature of the Home Secretary, the prisoner was removed to that place of con finement, there to remain during her Majesty's pleasure. t a ly pparel as you can, ER —When you come in co n t act A Wonn TO SWIDIMS • pr handkerchief round in the following m w i a t n h n t e h r o , s v e i z w . 1 : 11 dig,a T r a e ke r o o ff w n a s n In u c a t hi c e t o p f, r oy o uo n ru z wconalt—pesrpmriint g ; in, and throw th e coat to the it' the circumstances cuff o f your party, keeping the end of the handkerchief between your teeth ; the person will immediately lay hold, and you can use your limbs to swim, without the danger of being caught hold of.

The Rev. Faancis Falgencio, late a priest of the Roman Catholic Church, has addressed a letter to the editor of the Christian Intelligencer, announcing his intention of leaving the faith in which he was educated (Popery). The following are the reasons for this important step. The letter is dated Chinsurah (India), April 7th, 1842.—" It is now about three years since I first began to read the Catholic Expositor, a periodical published in Calcutta, and after reading a few num bers I was prompted (more by curiosity than any thing else) to know what the Protestants had to say to the statements put forth by the Expositor, and as I knew that there was a journal in Calcutta which took the Protestant side of the question (the Calcutta Christian Advocate,) I agreed with a friend that if be would send me the Expositor, I would take the Advocate, and that we would exchange papers and see what both parties had to say. This was agreed to by my friend, and I read both rapers for several months with considerable attention, chiefly with a view to ascer tain whether our church could bring home to the Pro testants any errors of doctrines which justified her in calling them Heretics, for I had always heard it said, and by those, too, who ought to set an example of Christian charity, that they were such, and that it was only by the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church that the pure Gospel of Christ could be known. I had not read long upon these sub jects before I perceived the spirit of the Catholic Expositor to be very bad, very uncharitable, and much opposed to what I thought, so far as I then understood the Gospel of Christ re quired. Instead, therefore, of deriving any information from this publication, such as was calculated to confirm me in the Roman Catholic faith, my confidence was shaken— shaken first and principally by the Catholi c E x po s it or , whose spirit and temper created serious doubts in my mind as to whether a church, which needed to be so defended, could possibly be the true Church of Christ. In this state of mind I began to read with more seriousness and candour than I had heretofore done, the papers in the Christian Ad vocate, both the editorial and the letters of its correspon dents. My state of mind was then far from comfortable. Curiosity prompted me to read in the first instance, but now conviction had seised me, and I could not shake it off. I made known my state of mind to a Protestant friend, and re ceived from him such counsel and advice as suited the oc casion. I also borrowed from a friend a Protestant Bible ; and as I found on perusing it that several very important texts differed materially from the Rhemish version of tho ' Roman Catholic divines which I possessed, I wished to know which was correct ; and also wishing to avoid any ex parte statement, I prefered, instead of going to a Protestant for information, to consult an Armenian friend. I asked to see two (Ex. v. 20 v. • 1 Car. xi. 27 v.) texts in his version of the Scriptures, and )laving carefully examined these, and had them explained to me in English, I found them uniformly to agree with the Protestant version; which circumstances convinced me that the statements made by Protestants, that Catholic divines had altered many texts of strip tore to suit their own purposes, were quite correct. My mind at this stage of the inquiry became much troubled about the mass, especially as 1 was bound to perform it every Sunday. I seriously suspected that I had been deceived'on this subject, and that I was labouring under a delusion on this point, and also on the doctrine of transubstantiation, which might in the end prove rnineus to my own soul. Great was my perplexity upon these points. On the one hand, I felt that I could no longer believe these doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church ; yet, on the other hand, I saw that many men—great men—learned men—clever men of the Roman Catholic Church, and men whom I bad every reason to believe were honest and had no design to deceive the people—fully and implicitly believed them. How to account for this I did not know, and it therefore perplexed me exceedingly, as 1 could scarcely believe that so many learned, sincere, and virtuous men could possibly be wrong. I have, however, since learned that !men, whatever their mind, their character, or their mental attainments may be, are frequently deluded and led astray on the subjects of religious truths, by the early imbibed and deeply rooted prejudices of their education. It was at this period that I obtained from an intimate friend the lectures of the Reverend M. Young, and subsequently the works of that devoted man of God the late Rev. Isaac Newton. The reading of those books, combined with other circum stances, gradually convinced me that I had been in error, and that there was not, as taught by the Roman Catholic Church, any real sacrifice in the mass; but that it was re ceived as commemorative of the one great sacrifice offered by our Blessed Lord on Mount Calvary, for the sins of the world. I saw moreover that the doctrine of the mass, and its efficacy as taught by the Roman Catholics to deliver souls from purgatory, was a delusion, and that it was imposed upon the people with a view to obtain money from them. From this period, therefore, although I sustained some pe cuniary loss by it, I ceased to perform daily mass at nay • church, so far as I could do it without exciting the suspicions of certain portions of my flock, who occasionally attended on the week-day services. I have now in my possession some money, which was sent me for the performance of private masses, and which I could not refuse without being suspected. This money I shall now return to the persons to whom I received it, as the masses for which it was sent have never been performed. Some masses, however, required of me on more public occasions, such as last Lent, and one or two periods before, I could not avoid, without laying myself open to suspicion. Since my faith in the doctrine of the mass and transubstantiation was shaken, I have, when there was a necessity laid upon me to perform the former—that is when it was unavoidable, uniformly omitted what I consider the most objectionable parts of the service; and when on the elevation of the host, 1 was obliged to kneel down, it was my constant practice to address a mental prayer to God that he would, if it were idolatry, forgive this and whatever other sins might be con nected with it. The difficulties which have beset my path I have , in a letter dated March 31, 1842, laid before the vicar apostolic, requesting from him an early reply; but no reply has as yet reached me, and I am disposed to think that it is not his intention to notice them. There is therefore only one path left open for me to pursue. The Apostle Paul has said, " If any man, or even an angel from Heaven, teach any other Gospel than that which Christ taught, he ought to be accursed," (verse 9, chapter Ist, of Galatians,) , hut that which the Roman Catholic Church teachss, I am now fully convinced is not Christ's Gospel, but another Gospel, consequently, the full weight of that curse must fall upon her and upon me also as long as 1 continued in her pale. Having arrived at this conclusion, I very naturally, as you reverend sir, will suppose, have for some months past seriously wished to secede from her communion, but how to accomplish this was the diffi culty, as the most serious obstacles appeared to stand in the way. Acting under the influence of this impression, I first began to consult with my friends as to whether there was any hope that 1 could be received as a minister into the Pro testant Church. A clear conscience, and food and raiment, with sphere of usefulness, was all that I desired. Being a duly ordained priest, and understanding that I could as such be received into the communion of the Church of England without further ordination, I first, through the medium of friends, and afterwards myself in person, laid the whole of my circumstances before the Lord Bishop of Calcutta, re questing to be received as a member and minister of the Church of England. After waiting more than six months, during which period I have suffered no little mental anxiety— my request, lam happy to say, has at length been complied with, and 1 am now about to escape, I trust for ever, from those trammels in which I have been so long tied and bound. I am quite aware of what I lay myself open to by the step which lam about to take. My character will probably be calumniated, and my motives certainly suspected. The former I must leave in the hands of the Mastet whom I desire to serve, but as to the latter I think it is my duty to say that I am not influenced by any secular motives what ever. Indeed the change so far as it relates to my outward circumstances, is one which involves considerable sacrifices and self-denial. I leave an attached and friendly people to go among strangers, and I leave a Church where I had easy duty to perform, and much leisure time on my hands, for a sphere which to me. at my time of life, will be extremely arduous, particularly as the acquisition of a new language the Hindoostanee, is required of me ; whilst my emolument will be rather under than over what I have been in the habit of receiving at Chinsurah. The latter has been so arranged at my particular request, in order that the world might not suspect my motives on this point. Still whatever self-denial may be involved in the step I am taking, I reel it a duty thus publicly to declare to the world at large, and to my own congregation in particular, that I do not and that I cannot believe the Roman Catholic Church, and that, whilst as a member of that church, I was bound not only to believe myself, but also to teach others, though I now see they are contrary to the Scriptures. I affectionately desire the well fare of my congregation, and as it is from no worldly motives that I have left them, my parting request and prayer for them is, that they would examine the Gospel of Christ for themselves. My only desire for them is that they may be saved, I leave them with deep regret, and whilst I would request them to pray for me, that God may strengthen me for all that lies before me, I hope I shall unceasingly and affec tionately remember them, and pray that God may bless them and make them all wise unto salvation through faith in His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom be glory for ever—Amen.
