By order, JAMES BOARDMAN, Secretary THE NATIONAL CORN LAW ASSOCIATION, FOR THE PROTECTION OF AGRICULTURE. THE efforts now making throughout th e U n it e d King dom, by the friends of the Agricultural Classes, are not only most laudable, but may be regarded as a type of the extent of injury, which is at All times to be appre hended from the machinations kf weak and designing demagogues; but however great and generous the exer tions of the provincial Pro-Cora Law Societies may be, they can effect but little real advantage in the absence of a point of general concentration and succour. It is, there fore, proposed to establish a permanent Pro-Corn Law Society in the Metropolis, to be called " THE NATIONAL CORN LAW ASSOCIATION FOR THE PROTECTION OF AGRICULTURE." The objects of this Association are lst. —To correspond with all the Provincial Societies of a similar character constantly, and to advise with them individually and collectively, in all cases of emergency. 2d.—The Association to use the utmost vigilance and exertion during the existence of the Anti-Corn Law League, and to meet the demonstrations of the latter by counter demonstrations in London and the Provinces; and for this purpose the Society to employ men of talent to attend the Pro-Corn Law Meetings, to rebut the League's statements and assertions, and, by every means in their power, to set the public right, as to the real objects of the present Anti-Corn Law Agitation. 3d.—ln consequence of the alarming spread of incen diarism in the Agricultural Districts, the funds of this Association will be employed in the detection and prose cution of offenders, and in the adoption of such other means as may appear advisable for the suppression of that disastrous evil. 4th.—The Association to hold a conference once a week, and oftener if requisite, during the existence of the Anti-Corn Law League, and to make arrangements for the immediate concentration of the leading members of the Provincial Societies; and also to collect reports from those societies, showing the progress of the cause in their respective localities. sth.—This Association on no account to trespass on the ground already taken by other societies, in London or elsewhere, for the advancement of Agricultural Science, but to confine its operations to the maintenance of the moral and political influence, as well as the pec un i ary interests, of the Agricultural Classes throughout the United Kingdom. 6th.--The Association to open a Subscription List forthwith for all parties desirous of becoming members, and supporting the Agricultural interests of the United Kingdom. Subscriptions of Patron Members, £3 3s. per Annum. A Contribution of Fifty Guineas constitutes a Life Member, and a Subscription of One Guinea an Ordinary Member, who shall be entitled to attend all the Meetings, and receive the Society's Reports. ith.—The controul of the funds and general business of the Association to be intrusted to a Council of Twelve Members, (with power to add to their number,) Chair man, and Secretary. The Council to be required to meet dtfily for despatch of business, during the existence of the Anti-Corn Law League, and five members of this Council to constitute a quorum. _ Bth.—The Officers and Agents of the Association to be appointed by the Council. 9th.—On the receipt of Subscriptions to the amount of £lOOO the Association shall be declared to be formed, and a Meeting of the Members will be forthwith called by the Acting Secretary, and the necessary arrangements made for immediate operations. The absence of so many influential gentlemen, now necessarily called to attend their Parliamentary duties, from the remote districts of the country is most seriously felt by the Local Societies, and a general want of confi dence in the former leaders of the Agricultural Constitu encies of England is beginning to show itself ; and nothing will tend more immediately to check the progress of this evil than showing them that their representatives in Par liament are actively engaged in their cause, at this critical moment, in the metropolis. No time, therefore, should be lost in the formation of this Association for the ener getic defence of the Corn Laws, and it is sincerely hoped that this call on the national Agricultural interests, will be promptly responded to. The views of the Association as regards Ireland and Scotland will be fully detailed at the first meeting of the Members of the Association, and prompt steps taken to arrest the progress of incendiarism in those countries.

SIMON WOODS, For many Years Superintendent of the celebrated WOODING'S SHADES, LONDON-BRIDGE. The design and appointments of this Establishment being totally novel in Liverpool, it may be necessary to explain that it is arranged on the plan of the most cele brated London Shades ; is intended for the accommoda tion of a select society only, and to oupply its Patrons with first-rate Wines and their epicurean accompaniments at extremely moderate charges. In the high and rare character of its Stock, and in the luxury of its appoint ment, this Establishment addresses itself exclusively to refined taste, and, it is hoped, will be favoured with a liberal high class patronage. Though scarcely in accordance with the spirit of this advertisement, it may be well to quote. partially, the charges of the Establishment, in order to justify the em phatic assertion as to their extreme moderation.

STITUTIONS FOR BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY. To those who reco ll ec t th e nauseous an d unw h o l esome properties which distinguished the article known as British Brandy, previously to the year 1829, and the pre diction that all attempts at competition with French Brandy could only result in an entire failure, the introduc tion of the Patent Brandy, at that peiiod, was matter of much surprise;—combining, as it was found to do, all the essential properties of the finer qualities of Brandy ma nufactured in France, with a degree of purity, and conse quent wholesomeness, unknown in the latter. The existence of these valuable properties in BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY, was distinctly certified, after analysis, by some of the first Chemists of the day. That evidence has been fully sustained by the extensive support of the most eminent Medical Men ; and, very especially, by its long •estahlished use, under Medical direction, in prefer ence to French Brandy. in the principal Infirmaries, Hospitals, and other Public Institutions, throughout the country ; among which it will suffice to name Guy's and the Westminster Hospitals, in the Metropolis, and the Manchester and Bristol Infirmaries. An unprecedented extent of sale has, likewise, marked its progress in public estimation. That an article possessed of such merits, and sold at a little more than half the price of French Brandy, should not have entirely superseded the use of the Foreign, is only to be attributed to the fact, that the Patentee has had to struggle, not only with the original—and, it must be admitted, well-founded—prejudic e aga i ns t B ran d y pro duced in this country; but, a l so , aga i nst a constant suc cession of attempts to f o r ce i n t o consumption inferior descriptions—in many cases as substitutes for, and even under the name of, the Patent Brandy. The correction of this evil, which has long been matter of extreme solicitude to the Patentee, is at length effected, by a METALLIC CAPSULE, or rorering for the Cork; the exclusive manufacture of which i s secure d to him by Letters Patent. It is composed —NOT OF TINFOIL, an article much used, but—of perfectly pure and SOLID METAL; stamped by the aid of powerful and costly ma chinery, into the exact size and shape adapted t o th e bot tle; to which it is attached by simple, but most effective, means : and its adhesion is so perfect, that it cannot be removed without being completely destroyed ; and, there fore, no C a p su l e can be used a second time. The Patentee, by the aid of this most efcient guarantee against the frauds from which he and his numerous con nexions have so extensively suffered, will now be enabled to protect the interests of all concerned, whether as ven dors or purchasers; and if care be taken to observe, that the Capsules attached to the glass bottles, have the words " BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY, No. 7, SMITHFIE LD BARs," emb osse d upon t h em , th e genuine character o f the contents may b e re li e d upon ;--an assurance that mu s t equally induce Dealers and Consumers to give that sup. port to an article of such superior value, which the Pa tentee feels satisfi e d h as on ly b een withheld, in certain quarters, from the previously-existing difficulty in guard. ing against the fraudulent substitutions here described. The Patent Brandy may be obtained from most of the Wine and Spirit Merchants in England and Wales, at Eighteen Shillings per Gallon in bulk ;—in glass bottles, secured by the Pate n t C apsu l e, a t T wen ty Shillings per Gallon ;—or a single bottle, as sample, for Three Shillings and Sixpence.
