LAWRENCE HALL deeinsltiduty to himself and the Public to guard them against the many spurious imitations which are daily foisted upon them under the va rious denominations of " Best Patent Starch," " Best White Patent Starch," " Patent Glazed Starch," " Satin Faced Starch," " Superior Patent Starch," &c. &c. These inva riably disappoint consumers, and greatly injure them by an inferior article being imposed on them as his make. It is a fact well known, that it was a few years after Mr. HALL took out a Patent for his invention before he brought the Article to the perfection for general use to which it has now attained ; and it is better known still, that all the imi tators have utterly failed in making a Starch at all similar or equal to HALL'S Patent Starch, other makers being ignorant of his present mode of preparing it ; and if such were not the case, their premises and situation would not be suitable. Purchasers of Starch are therefore particularly. requested not to be deceived by a spurious article, and they are respectfully requested to ask for __ HALL'S IMPROVED PATENT STARCH. No other Makers of Starch ever had a P a t en t f o r it. Wholesale Agents J. and R. RAIMES and Co., Edinburgh.

The CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM is a gentle sti mulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life, and is, therefore, calculated to afford decided relief to those who have fallen into a state of chronic debility. In such persons the appetite is generally defective, and the relish of life is al most subdued ; they are wanting in that activity of mind and energy of conduct which their affairs require ; and partly from conscious weakness, partly from excessive apprehen sions, are liable to sink despondently into a premature grave. It is for these that Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, parti cularly designed their CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM. Whatever enriches the blood, without inflaming it ; what ever braces without stimulating too violently the nervous system ; whatever frees and disburdens the viscera and other important organs ; whatever resolves obstructions, and throws off viscid humours; whatever strengthens the general habit, and brings back the muscular fibres to their natural and healthy tone ; whatever is calculated to produce, in a considerable degree, all or any of these effects, must be, under certain mo difications and restrictions, equally adapted to every species of decay. Hence, though the Cordial Balm of Syriacum makes a direct attack upon the many-headed hydra in one quarter only, it will be found to apply indirectly or collate rally, to almost every other; in short, the debility of nature can be completely reinstated by this excellent medicine, for its reanimating powers exceed almost credibility ; its fine rich stimulating balsamic stomach qualities—its purification of the blood—and, above all, the complete invigorator of the nervous system, whereby the whole faculties become re stored to their proper power and functions. and the fallen fabric of life is raised up to beauty, consistency, and dura tion, upon the ruins of an emaciated and premature decay, to sound and pristine health. As nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution, so there is nothing more generally acknow ledged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward wastings, loss of appetite, indigestion, depression of spirits, trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs, obstinate cough, shortness of breath, or consumptive habits. It possesses wonderful effi cacy in all cases of syphilis, fits, head-ache, weakness, heaviness and lowness of spirits, dimness of sight, confused thoughts, wandering of the mind, vapours, and melancholy ; and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually remoted by its use. _ _ Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men or women, are under its immediate influence. Old coughs, asthmas, and consumptive habits are soon relieved, and speedily cured. Poverty of blood, and emaciated limbs will, ere long, meet the happiest change ; the chill, watery fluid will become rich and balsamic, and the limbs be covered with flesh, firm and healthy.

PRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, begs particu o larly to call the attention of his Friends and the Public to the undermentioned selection of Preparations, compound ed at his Laboratory, a trial of any of which will convince the most sceptical of their decided superiority. THE FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. In this preparation are concentiateciahtVeWcficiJiiFro perties of Sarsaparilla Root. To persons, therefore, who, from various causes, would experience great inconvenience, or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the Compound Decoction, the Fluid Extract, which possesses the advantages of portability and of keeping in any climate, will be found a most desirable mode of employing this much esteemed Medicine. Two teaspoonsful of the Fluid Extract, put into a wine glass full of water, makes a preparation equal in strength to half a pint of the Compound Decoction, formerly prescribed by the London, Edinburgh. and Dublin Pharmacopoeias. The diseases in which it has proved most beneficial are those of the Skin; such as Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive Diseases, Secondary Symptoms, &c., arising from a diseased state of the system at large. For removing Blotches, Pim &e. from the Face, this Medicine has no superior. The extensive use and high reputation of this preparation has led to numerous imitations, disguised by the name of Syrup, Essences, &c. The whole medicinal virtues of the Sarsaparilla consist in its extractive matter, and it possesses no real property in the form of essence, while the Syrup is injurious to the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation. PRIESTLEVS StIDIATZ POWDERS. Which approach nearer than anything yet discovered to the Chalybeate Waters of Germany. The style of pre paring PRIESTLEY 'S SEIOLITZ POWDERS iS peculiar to himself, and combines scientific skill with great accu racy ' • and though numbers of people unacquainted with the business, and others, have of late years attempted imita tions, they have invariably been found to be spurious com pounds, neither possessing the agreeable flavour nor the me dicinal properties of the Seidlitz Waters. Sold in Boxes, 2s. each, containing twenty-four Powders, to make one dozen tumbler glasses, and in Tin Cases, 10s. each. The latter are put up in a very eligible form for ex portation, or to use at sea, and will keep any length of time in all climates. VEGETABLE HAIR OIL Is allowed to be an excellent discovery for invigorating and renovating the human Hair. It eradicates the Scurf, nou rishes the Hair, prevents its falling off, produces a most beau tiful natural curl, and gives to art ifi cial Hair a peculiar soft ness of texture and luxuriant appearance. Sold in Bottles at Is. 3d. and 3s. each. VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER.

Portfolios are published monthly, containing copies of Letters. without name or address, in serted by Gentlemen of rank and fortune, by Gentlemen in the Army and Navy, and by Professional and other Gentle men of property, who are desirous of entering into the HOLY ESTATE OF MATRIMONY.

The price of the Pamphlet is one shilling, and the Rules are charged ten shillings, as some guard against idle curiosity and the applications of ineligible persons. The Monthly Portfolio is now ready, and contains many Letters of Gentlemen, from the ages of 24 to 55, possessing property from £4OO to £2OOO a-year, extracts from which can be for warded to Ladies, their Parents, or Guardians, on being fur nished with the age and circumstances of the parties applying. The best references will be given if required, and the most implicit secrecy and honour will be observed. TO COMMERCIAL GENTLEMEN AND OTHERS.

Some sixty vessels are constantly employed in carry ing Guano from thence to the main land, which, by its fertilising qualities, produces the most abundant crops of wheat, maize, and all other vegetable productions, whilst, without, little or nothing would be obtained from the Guano, from Chi nc h a , h as l a tely been introduced into this country by Me ssrs . W. J. Myers and Co., of Liverpool; and in off er i ng i t to t h e B r i t i s h - agriculturist, it is deemed, in consequence of the introduction of one or two cargoes from the coast of Bolivia, to say that they, with Messrs. Alexander Macdonald an d Co., St. Mildred's-court, London, and their accredited ageßts in the country, are the only parties in Eng land from whom the Guano, from Chincha, can be procured. On application to any of them the article may be had genuine, and warranted the same quality as is used by the Peruvians, who estee m thi s G uano so highly that with the utmost dif ficulty was the Government of that country induced to allow its exportation to Europe, for fear of doing - an injury to their own agricultural interest, which could not be remedied should the Guano be all exported. Guano has been applied, in this country, with the greatest success to th e growth of wheat, barley, hops, turnips, grass lands, potatoes, and indeed every description of vegetable production, in the whole of which the increase of crop was most apparent and highly satisfactory, and it only requires to be known to secure it general use by agriculturists. AMERICAN TOAST.—" The ladies; the only endurable aristocracy, who rule without laws—judge without jury —de cide without appeal—and are never in the wrong." A recent New York paper, speaking of the decease of a coloured woman, who was stated to have died from natural causes, heads the article with the following title :—" Died without medical aid I" COPPER MlNEs.—Thirty miners and two blacksmiths lately left Merthyr for the island of Cuba, in the employ of Mr. Alderman Thompson. Their stipulation is to work for three years, or to be returned to Swansea should the climate not agree with them. They are to work in the copper mines, the blacksmiths at £9 a month each, and the miners at £6, and to get one half those wages, with provisions at the wor thy alderman's exp ense. The famous oriental philosopher Lockman, while a slave, being presented by his master with a bitter lemon, immedi ately ate it all. " How w as i t possible, " said his master, " for you to eat so nauseous a fruit?" Lookman replied, " I have received so many favours from you, that it is no wonder I should once in my life eat a bitter melon from your hand." This generous answer of the slave struck the mas ter to such a degree, that he immediately gave him his liberty. With such sentiments should man receive his portion of sufferings at the hand of God. —Bishop Horne. HEBREW VOLUME.—The Charlestown Courier notices a rare literary curiosity in that city.

Howard, Esq., M.P., at the request of Mr. Ivison, of Wetheral, Mr. How ard has received the following reply from the right honour able W. E. Gladstone : " Whitehall, March 16, 1842. " Dear Sir, —I am much obliged by the kind tone of your letter. With respect to the question of grinding in bond, or rather of substitution, which appears a preferable mode of obtaining the same object, it is now under the consideration of the government. Mr. Ilutt last night, with Sir R. Peel's consent, obtained leave to bring in a bill for the purpose ; and it is understood that in the interval which is to elapse be fore the second reading, the government are to decide on their course respecting it.—l remain, dear sir, faithfully yours, " W. E. GLADSTONE." " The fluctuations in the value of railway shares of the years 1837 to 1841," dating the prices on.the first day of the quarter of each year, gives a pretty good idea of the extent and estimation in which they are held in the public market : -Bristol and Exeter shares in 1837 fluctuated between 3 and 5, these being the lowest and the highest prices ; in 1838 they fluctuated between 101 and 18 ; in 1839, between 25 and 30 ; in 1840, between 44 a n d 76 ; an d in 1811, between 77 and 56 ; the increase in value being regulated in this, as in other cases, by the payment of calls, &c. Eastern Counties, in 1837, fluctuated between 2 and 2.1; in 1838, between 1 and 6.1 in 1839, between 7 and 81 ; in 1840, between 16 and 10 ; and 1841, between 9 and n.

Grand Junction, in 1837, fluctuated between 158 and 180 ; in 1838, between 208 and 191 ; in 1839, between 204 and 194 ; in 1840, between 205 and 253 ; and in 1811, be tween 212 and 198. Great Western, in 1837, fluctuated be tween 46 and 63 ; in 1838 between 67 and 91; in 1839, be tween 78 and 60 ; in 1840, between 60 and 83 : and in 1841, between 91 and 77. Brighton, in 1836, fluctuated between S and 1-; in 1838, between 4 and 11 ; in 1839, between 9 and 17 ; in 1840, between 17 and 29 ; and in 1841, between 44 and 461. Greenwich, in 1837, fluctuated between 21 and 15 ; in 1838, between 151 and 17; in 1839, between 17 and 14 ; in 1810 between 13 and 7 ; and in 1841, between 81 and 71.

THE LATE MARQUIS CF HERTFORD'S WlLL.—Many exaggerated and absurd statements having been made as to the late Lord Hertford's will, we have taken some pains to inquire into the truth, and we believe the following particu lars will be found more nearly correct than anything that has vet appeared :—To his widow the Marchioness is left £3,000 per annum and £20,000. His son, the present Lord, is left all the landed estates, and residuary legatee; which latter gift is reckoned equivalent to £lOO.OOO at the least. The late Admiral Sir Richard Strachan left his three daugh ters, then very young, to the guardianship of Lord Hertford, and they chiefly resided with him till their marriages ; these three young ladies are the must prominent objects of his Lordship's bounty, viz., to Ch ar l otte, C ountess Zichy, who c ons tantly resided with him, he hasleft £86,000; to Matilda, Countess Berthold, £80,000 ; an d to Louisa, Princess Antimo Ruffo, .1:40,000 ; and to each successively, a life interest in the villa in Regent's Park ; which, after them returns to his own f am il y. T o L ady Strachan is left a lif e interest of £7OO, and £lO,OOO. To a Mrs. Spencer, who is, we presume, the person called in other statements (but, we believe, erroneously) " Lady Strachan's maid," a life annuity of £1,04)0, and £5,000. To his Lordship's numerous ser vants several sums estimated at from £16,000 to £20,000. To his executors, £5,000 each ; to Sir Horace Seymour, £B,OOO ; to Lord George Seymour, £5,000 ; to his cousin, Captain Meynell, £-1,000; to Mr. Croker, £21,000 and his wine, which from his Lordship's havinz latterly lived so little in England, is not reckoned at more than £5OO ; to Mr. De Horsey, £3,500; to Mr. Raikesi £2,000. These, we believe, are the principal bequests ; but the codicils by which they are made are said to be near 30 in number, and liable to various legal questions which may affect and alter some of the legacies, at least as to their amounts, and perhaps some other testamentary papers may be yet found ; but, on the whole, we believe the foregoing is a pretty accurate state ment of the affair as it at present appears on the face of the documents hitherto discovered. IMPORTANT PROTEST.—The district committees of the societies for promoting Christian knowledge, and for propa gating the gospel in foreign parts, established in the deanery of Winchester, have just published their usual annual report. To this are attached a sermon by the Rev. C. Wordsworth, and the minutes of the proceedings of the thirteenth anni versary meeting of these district societies, at which a reso lution was passed, expressive of the thanks of the meeting to Mr. Wordsworth for his sermon, with a request that he would publish it. This report having been sent to the Rev. A. It. C. Dallas, rector of Wonston, Herts, a gentleman of eminent piety and talent, as a subscriber to both societies ; the rev. gentleman has forwarded to the secretaries a letter, explaining the pain he felt when reading Mr. Wordsworth's sermon, and entering a warm protest against its statements of doctrine. Mr. Dallas adds that he does this in order to put himself right with his flock, any intelligent member of which, he says, has a right to suppose by the resolution pre fixed, that the sermon has met with the approbation of his minister, and as such a one would assuredly discover the most marked discrepancy between the doctrine he is accus tomed to hear from the pulpit, and that which lies on the very surface of Mr. Wordsworth's sermon, it could scarcely be avoided, that much confusion of mind and shaking of confidence in his authorised teacher, must be the re sult. The sermon is entitled " Evangelical Repentance," and has occasioned great sensation amongst the religi ous public. The following paragraph from Mr. D.'s letter explains his reasons still more fully. " As I hold the points at issue, with respect to the doctrines taught in this sermon, to be not secondary and unimportant, but primary and essen_ tial, I cannot consent to expose my ministry to such a possi ble hindrance; more particularly because the doctrines in question form part of a system, which has been lately 7aining much ground, in opposition to wh a t I believe t o b e the truth of Scripture, and the view of that truth set forth by the Church of England. I consider it, therefore, a duty in those who, after a deliberate examination, feel convinced that this system is erroneous—that it is attended with fearful danger to the souls of men—and is detrimental to the spiritual unity of the church to state th e i r op i n i ons openly, in whatever sphere their influence may extend, be it larger or smaller; and however reluctant I may be to take such a step, I sec no better way of avoiding the possibility of being considered as an approving: party to the resolution of the public meeting, than by protesting in an official communication to the secre taries of the district committees whose published report is encuml:ered with such a resolution, against what I consider to he dangerous error ; and at the same time taking care thz.-t my protest is known to a ll t h e subscribers, be transm itting a copy of it to each.

Much was now made of the quondam prisoner : Gonzales gave him a dinner ; the othcf ministers followed his example, but, as a necessary precaution, he was not Presented in one official capacity. In the meanwhile, no doubt for a consi deration, more than one capitalist got hint of the projected loan, and were d es i rous of offering him 3 their services, every communication, however, being conducted with the greatest secrecy, and th e conversation heldwhispers. Such, then. mysterious affair up to the early pal are the facts o f t hi s in part of the present month, when no entertained suspicion ministry not even a doubt of his representations. It is needless to mention that Mr. I). is a mere adventurer, and that his mission had reference rather to the recruiting of his own finances than those of Spain, which latter his own have for some time nearly re sembled in their desperate state of embarrassment.
