Paternoster-roc, •" Ste,--Having been informed of tne surprising cure of Mr. Barnes, of St. Paul's Churchyard, who was so severely afflicted by Rheumatism, the intense pain causing delirium, that he was compelled to be confined by a strait waistcoat to prevent his committing any violence, and whose case was considered en tirely hopeless, I was induced to ascertain the particulars, and being satisfied of the truth of my mormation, encouraged me to make a trial of your most invaluable Medicine, entertaining little hopes of success, having been many years so severe a suf ferer, and tried many said to be very valuable remedies. lam very happy in being able to add my testimony of the.benefit I derived: after a few days' application the use of my limbs are perfectly restored, and I am now able to attend my business, and, making an allowance for my age, neyetfwas better in my life. To those. however severely afflicted and hopeless their case may have been pronounced, I beg of them to make a trial, feeling quite satisfied they will be restored to the use of their limbs, from the severe cases that hare yielded to this Medicine. Health is a great blessing to those who can enjoy it, but to those who are deprived, none feels it so severely as the trades man or mechanic, as it generally causes loss of business, and brings ruin on families.

NEW Btanopßics IN THE COLONIES . PROVISION FOR ADDITIONAL CLERGY. AT a GENERAL MEETING of the SOCIETY for the PROPAGATION of the GOSPEL in FOREIGN TS, held at the Society's House, No. 79, Pall Mall, on FRIDAY, March 19th, 1847 t His Grace the Lord Archbishop of CANTERBURY, President, in the Chair, It was agreed that the following Statement be adopted, printed, and circulated : The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel earnestly de sires to make known the following facts : The Society is pledged to the full amount of its current in come, fbr the support of Missionaries already upon its roll, the encouragement of Theological Students, being Candidates for Missionary employment, and the general sustenance of existing Missions. The Society has no disposable capital whatever in reserve. But more clergymen are required in all the Colonies, both for the administration of religion among British Settlers, and for the instruction and conversion of the Heathen. And while the deficiency in the means of grace is already so great, the stream of Emigration flows on more rapidly than ever. The number of those who went out to the Colonies last year was about fifty thousand, and it is estimated that the amount of emigration for the current year will considerably exceed that of 1846. Thus the claims upon the SOciety are rapidly in creasing. Four more Bishoprics are about to be erected in important, but hitherto much neglected, divisions of our Colonial Empire. Two of these will be formed out of the present Diocese of Aus tralia, —namely, one at Melborne, to comprise the District of Port Philip, and the other probably at Newcastle, for the Northern Counties of New South Wa' es. The third will be at Adelaide, for the rapidly growing Colony of South Australia, with jurisdiction over the Swan River Settlements; and the fourth will be for the Cape of Good Hope. The Society,. while hailing this extension of the Colonial Episcopate with the liveliest feelings of satisfaction and thank fulness, is sensible of the new demands which will be thereby created for more Churches and more Missionaries, and is anxi ous, and, under God's blessing, resolved, to bear its part in supplying them. This, however, it has been shown, cannot be done out of its existing means. The Society, therefore, confidently appeals to the Christian people of England for further help. Our fellow-countrymen are forced out, by the pressure of poverty, from their native land, where they enjoyed the blessings of a parish church and a parish school,. to countries where frequently neither church or school is within reach. Such is the case of many districts of all the British Colonies, and in none more than in those which are now to be placed under the superintendence of Bishops. But the appointment of Bishops must be followed by that of additional Clergymen, for the service of the several destitute stations; and these Clergyman must, for a time, and in part at least, be sustained from home. Not fewer than from sixteen to twenly will be at once required to acompany the Bishops who are going forth; and the main tenance of these Clergy (exclusive pf what may be raised from their several congregations) can hardly be estimated at a less sum than . - '2OOO annually: a further sum of about ...e3OOO will, in the .first instance, be required for their passage and outfit. The Society, fully sensible of the vast imoortanee of strength ening the hands of the Bishops on first taking possession of their new Sees, and feeling: that the present is a great crisis in the condition of the Colonial Church, is determined to spare no exertions to meet the emergency. It is desirous, indeed, to give a larger measure of assistance to all the Colonies, but would consider it a shame and reproach to 'telow the new Bishops to proceed to their respective dioceses without the means of securing the services of those Clergymen who may be willing to a ccompany them. The help, therefore, that is wanted for this particular object is immediate ; and will, if accorded at once, be doubly useful, by enabling the Bishops before leaving England, to select Clergymen, or Candidates for Holy Orders, for their respective Dioceses. The new Sees have not been endowed without a very singular exercise of individual liberality. The two in New South \Vales could not have been erected without the abandonment, on the part of the Bishop of Australia, of a very considerable portion of his life income ; and those for the Cape of Good Hope and. South Australia have been founded by the exemplary munifi cence of one member of our Church. It is hoped that such high examples of Christian self-denial and bounty will not be without their influence in awaking the charity . of others; and as some persons may have a special in terest in one particular Colony, it is proposed that Annual Subscriptions and Contributions be received in behalf either of the four new Dioceses generally, or of any one of them in particular. It should be distinctly understood that the principle on which the Society acts, is to contribute, in some given pro portion, to the funds raised in each particular district, and to limit its contribution to a certain period of time. In the pre sent case it is considered that the income to be guaranteed out of the funds which may be placed at the disposal of the Society should be restricted to five years. When it is considered that the appeal now made is in behalf of many thousands of our poorer brethren, scattered over re mote provinces of the Great British Empire; it is hoped that the answer to it may be such as to justify the Society in en couraging the Four new Bishops to accept the services of such Candidates as they may consider well qualified to accompany them on their holy Mission. W. CANTUAR. Pursuant to the above Resolution, the folloWing Committee has already been formed for the purpose of carrying out its object in one of the new Dioceses, viz.: — FOR THE NEW DIOCESE OF MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA.

The Special Committee beg to invite the attention of their Christian friends in England to a circular, just issued by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, and to request particularly their kind co-operation in the endea vour to raise a fund towards the outfit and maintenance, for a limited period, of additional Clergymen in the new Diocese of Melbourne, to th 3 charge of which the Rev. Charles Perry, late Fellow and Tutor of Trinity College, Cambridge, has been ap pointed. This Diocese comprehends the territory usually known by the name of Australia Felix, or the Province of Port Philip, and extends about 500 miles from East to West, and 250 in its broadest part from North to South. Although the settlement was founded entirely by the enterprise of private individuals, and only eleven years ago, the European population already exceeds 35,000, and it is every year receiving large additions by immigration from England, Sydney, Van Dieman's Land, and other places. Melbourne, the principal town, contains at least 10,000 inha bitants. Williams Town, the port of Melbourne, and six miles distant, contains about 500 settled inhabitants, and is, at particular sea sons of the year, much frequented by those who are employed in bringing down wool, &c., for exportation, and by sailors be longing to the shipping in the harbour. Geelong, a town situate on the western shore of Port Philip, contains about 2000 inhabitants, and is rapidly rising in im portance. There is also a town at Portland Bay, 250 miles to'the west ward, containing about 800 inhabitants; aro another between this and Melbourne, at Port Fairy, the popiLation of which is not mentioned in any account of the province; but its import ance may be inferred from the establishinent of a regular weekly post to it from Melbourne. To the east of Melbourne, on the coast of Gipps' Land, is Albert Town ; of recent origin, but already a place ofconsider able trade, and likely to become the chief port of that large and fertile district. There is a small village called St. Kilda, about three miles from Melbourne; and five miles beyond, upon the Bay of Port Philip, another called Brighton, the favourite watering-place for the more wealthy inhabitants of Melbourne. This consists at present chiefly of villas, and its population does not exceed 150 persons; but it may be expected to increase. The rest of the European inhabitants live more or less dis persedly through the province. A considerable number, amounting probably with the farm-servants to nearly 3,000, are settled in the neighbourhood of Melbourne and Geelong. There are several considerable proprietors at a place called Heidel berg, about eight miles from the former; and a large number at Mount Macedon, about 50 miles from the same town. The importance of this last place is indicated by its having a regular I c o of g e v new: Diocese.ana Churches weekly post. i u d , h e o s i t e it p ut r i o o .v n in i c s e : s b o y ne th a e t The above statement will explain in some degree the nature e Itsspiritual 'circumstance, that there appear to be at present only three Melbourne, another at Geelong, and a third at Portland Bay. There i • another Church nearly, if rot completely,finished at Melbourne; and the r e w ill be no &•if' I terms of the Col on i a l Ch uc h Act; in ty, according to the Clergyman who s h a ll be impel ; obtaining a stipend for th e This Act provides, that, when a raised by private c on t r ib ut i on , sum of at least .e3OO has been of a Church o r d we lli ng, a sum an applied towards time buildi ng may be issued from the Colonial funds not exceeding 41,000. Likewise, where 100 adults scribe a declaration of their d es i re t o attend atip°posusetb-1 Church. r Chapel, the Governor may allo w the Minister £lOO a year ; if 200 shall subrcribe, -€l5O a year. If 500 adults subscribe the declaration, then £2OO a year may be allowed. There is also a power of issuing £lOO a year, when less than 100 subscribe, given to the Governor, subject the consent of the Executive Council. When there is no Church or Chapel, the Governor may' issue any sum not exceeding £lOO a year, to meet an equal amount of private contributions. The Act draws no distinction whatever between any religious Communities; but regulations were published, dated Oct. 4,1836, setting forth the English, Scottish, and Romish Churches, as the special objects of these pro v isions ; adding, however, that applications from any other denominations of Christians would he taken into consideration according to the •1 • specia circumstances of the case. men in every populous township, of the Church of Engand uplotnwalobeseen libera l itythaotf ? h i e s C ac o t lo p n r i o s y cs id th es em a s fu el n v d e , s, u w po e n m w a t y ic d h e , p i e t ri n d d affections of the people' but the forhvi.ahveterheoebt obtained e l o t dc e t n ar a i io n we c ls e d o an f npd C o lnertg discipline}e melancholy foriilof arelsruilsttlatnhietypeoAptlepbe comer e assistance of its members in this country is need e d, i n the first instance, to plant the Church; so that the groun d may not, as is frequently the case, be pre - occupied by other p ar ti es • or, tt u isy e sent the destitution of Ministerial instruction, and . relig ious ordinances, is most deeply felt ; and very urgent appeals have e rl t y m in o d re iff often erent tthoe every been addressed to the Archbishop of Canterbury and others upon the subject. It is, therefore, most desirable that the Bishop should take out with him a small number of persons, either ordained, or ready for ordination, to whom a certain income may be gua ranteed for a period of five years; their maintenance after wards to depend altogether upon Colonial resources. There are actually wanted at once, besides a Minister for the new Church at Melbourne, for whom we are not called to provide a maintenance, at least eight Clergymen, viz.:— One for Williams Town ; One for Mount Macedon, One for Port Fairy, One for Heidelberg, • One for Albert Town, One for the population in the neighbourhood of Geelong, and two to itinerate among t h e scattere d inhabitants of the Bush, who still remain, as a Coloni al doc ument some years ago stated them to be, " without the of servance of the Lord's Day, without the celebration of public worship, without the minis. trations-of religion, and without even the occasional visits of a clerevman either to counsel or comfort, rebuke or exhort." The allowance for outfit and passage,money to each unmar ried Clergyman ought not to be less than .-.6150, and to each married one .€2 0, and the income, which it is proposed to gua rantee to then for five years, is .eIL -7 9 to .2.200 respectively. Towards the latter portion of the expense considerable help may ha expected from the Colonists themselves, who, in some Places, as in Mount Macedon and Heidelberg, have already ex pressed their readiness to contribute to this object. It is there fore calculated, that the whole scheme may be accomplished, if there can be raised in this country a prerent sum of £1,200 or 1,400, together with the anima 1 subscriptions, for five years, - to the amount of It is now, while Ibis Colonial settlement is in its infancy, that STANDARD GENERAL PRINTING OFFICE, AND WHOLESALE AND RETAIL STATIONERY WAREHOUSE, LACE AND ADDISON, PUBLISHERS OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL STATIONERS, ACCOUNT 1300 K MAKERS AND PRINTERS, Have in Stock, and Manufacture to order, LEDGERS, DAY BOOKS, CASH BOOKS, JOURNALS, LETTER BOOKS, COPYING BOOKS, BILL BOOKS, & WASTE BOOKS, IN EVERY VARIETY OF STYLE.

CLARK AND GOODACRE, No. 39, GREAT CHARLOTTE-STREET. OBSERVEI-U p THE STEPS, NEXT DOOR TO LUCAS'S. PARR'S LIFE PILLS. THE POPULAR MEDICINE. rpnE following important testimony to the efficacy 1 of PARR'S LIFE PILLS, has just been received by the Proprietors : " To Messrs. T. Roberts and Co., London. " Athlone, December 7th, 1846. " Sirs,—You will please send me six dozen more PARR'S LIFE PILLS ; I am just out. They are taking well, and I can assure you. they are doing an immensity of good ; every one who has tried them in affections of the Liver and the Stomach derive a great deal of benefit.—Yours, &c., " WILLIAM GILCHRIST, Apothecary and Surgeon." The extraordinary properties of this medicine are thus de scribed by an eminent physician, who says " After particular observation of the action of PARR'S PILLS I am determined in my opinion that the following are their true properties : " First,—They increase the strength, while most other medi cines have a weakening effect upon the system, Let any one take from three to four or six pills every twenty-four hours, and, instead of having weakened, they will be found to have revived the animal spirits, and to have imparted a lasting strength to the body. " Secondly,—ln their operation they go direct to the disease. After you have taken six or twelve pills you will experience their effect ; the disease upon you will become less and less by every dose you take, and if you will persevere in regularly taking from three to six pills every day, your disease will be entirely removed from the system. " Thirdly,—They are found, after giving them a fair triai for a few weeks, to possess the most astonishing and invigorating properties, and they will overcome all obstinate complaints, and restore sound health ; there is a return of good appetite shortly from the beginning of their use, whilst their mildness as a purgative is a desideratum greatly required by the weak and delicate, particularly where violent purging is acknowledged to he injurious instead of beneficial. " Fourthly,—As a general Family Medicine they are exceed ingly valuable, and no family should be without them, for they may be used with perfect safety in any disease, for to every disease they are of inestimable value. John Dale, Esq., of Manchester, Lecturer on Chemistry, and pupil of the celebrated Dr. Dalton, F.R.S., in a letter, addressed to the Proprietor, in London, says :- 4 I hz,g to state I find them worthy of being recommended to the public for their efficacy and simplicity, and to be really vegetable pills, containing, as they do, nothing but what is of vegetable ori g i n .' Wi t h th i s assurance thepub lic need have no fear of giving them a fair trial. "Fifthly,—There is no medicine ever introduced to the public that has become so universally popular with females as PARR'S LIFE LILLS. For all complaints peculiar to females they are of most astonishing efficacy; and they are confidently recom mended to them for general use. A trial of a box of these pills will at once prove the truth of this assertion." Beware of spurious imitations of the above medicine. None are genuine unless the words "PARR'S LIFE PILLS" are in WHITE LETTERS ON A RED GROUND, engraved on the Go vernment Stamp, pasted round each box. Sold in boxes at ls. lid., 2s. 9d., and family packets at II s., by all respectable Druggists and Patent Medicine Retailers throughout the kingdom.—Directions are given with each box. NOTICE.

THE CORN TRADE AT CONSTANTINOPLE.—According to Se'inaphore de Marseilles, the corn trade was particu larly active at Constantinople. The exportation continued on a large scale. Prices were moderate, but the freight was exorbitant. In the space of three or four days 50* vessels had crossed the Dardanelles, most of which were proceeding to load grain in the Black Sea harbours. Of these 400 had been freighted for the purpose. It is im possible to form an idea of the immense profit Turkey hap derived from that trade, and the movement appeared • likely to continue. The crops, moreever, presented the .. most luxurious aspect in the provinces of Rumelia and Anatolia ; and should the west of Europe experience fresh wants, agriculture in Turkey would assume a most extensive developement. THE MAILS. —The Oriental Company's steam-ship Tagus, Captain Evans, left Southampton at three p.m. on Saturday last, en route for the Black Sea, taking the r East India and China mails, under charge of Lieutenant • O'Aranda, R.N., to Malta, there to be reshipped in the Ariel for Alexandria. The Tagus has taken out 300 tons of bale goods, and 25 passengers. The Royal West India mail packet, the Teviot, Captain Rivett, sailed for: the West Indies and the Gulf of Mexico on Friday last, taking the usual mails, 25 passengers, 2,265 bottles of quicksilver value £35,420; £17,000 in spe c i e , an d a l arge gener a cargo. The next West India mails may be anticipated to-morrow, by the steam-ship Medway. The East India mails were expected from Malta, by the Achilles, on Sun day last. The Jupiter, Capt. Roberts, with the Gibraltar and Peninsular mails, was expected early yesterday morn. ing. The Iberia, Capt. Bowen, is to take out the Penin sular mails of to-morrow, the 7th instant. The American steam-ship Washington will take out the mails for New York, &c., on Saturday next, with 140 passengers. PORTSMOUTH, July 4.—The Vestal, 26, Captain Charles Talbot, arrived this morning from the China and East India station, whereon she has been employed the last three years and a half, under the command of Vice- Admiral Sir William Parker and Rear-Admiral Sir Thos. Cochrane. She left Hong Kong on the 4th of March, arrived at the Cape of Good Hope on the 27th of April, • and left on the sth of May, bringing the latest news from that colony ; passed St. Helena on the 23rd of May, but did not communicate, neither did she call at Ascen sion. She has brought mails from the Cape and squadron employed on that station. The Vestal has experienced a very long succession of fine weather, has never had double-reefed topsails but twice, and did not take in her royals for 5000 miles. She went up to Spithead under royals and flying jib this morning in most gallant style,. and shortened sail and furled sails smartly. The ship appeared to us to be in admirable order, the effects of excellent discipline and system were everywhere visible. She saluted the Commander-in-Chief with 17 guns. Mr. King, late Master Commanding the store-ship Minden at. Hong Kong, has come home passenger in the Vestal. THE STATE OF PORTuGAL.—So long as a British fleet shall occupy the Tagus, and a Spanish army garrison Bra ganza, and it may be Oporto, there will be outward, quiet. But can this state of things last ? No verily_ The fire may be smothered over, but it is not put out; and when it bursts forth again, who will undertake to say that either Lord Palmerston or his successor will be permitted by France and Spain to extinguish it a second time ?—Fraser's Mag. COUNTING A BILLION.—What is a billion ? The reply is very simple :—a million times a million. This is quickly written, and quicker still pronounced. But no man is able to count it. You count 160 or 170 a minute ; but let us even suppose that you go as far as 200, then an hour will produce 12,000 ; a day 288,090 ; and a year, or 366 days, (for every four years you may rest from counting, during leap-year,) 105,120,000. Let us suppose, now, that Adam, at the beginning of his e x i s t ence , had begtat to count, had continued to count, and was counting still— he would not even now, according to the usually supposed age of our globe, have counted near enough; for to count a billion, he would require 9512 years, 34 days, 5 hours, and 20 minutes, according to the above rule. Now, sup— posing we were to allow the poor counter twelve hours daily for rest, eating, and sleeping—he would need 19,024 years, 69 days, 10 hours, and 40 minutes !—Americart Literary Gazette. JEAN PAHL FREDERICK RICHTER. The deep and marked peculiarities of a poetic nature were never brought into fuller exercise than by Richter, in the formation and government of his little school. That which is usually to • men of rich endowments a vexing and wearisome em ployment, the daily routine of instruction for little. children in the elements of knowledge, because to him, st: source of elevated and ennobling thought. His mode of instruction was the opposite of that from which he thought he had himself suffered. In this little school there was no learning by heart, no committing to me mory the thoughts of others, but every child was expected to use its own powers. His exertions seeme& mainly directed to awaken in the children a repro ducing and self-creating power.; all knowledge was, therefore, the material, out of which they were to forts. new combinations. In a word, the whole of his instruc tion was directed to create a desire for self-study, and - thus lead his pupils to self-knowledge.—Life of Richter. in Blackword. THE LAST SUPPER OF LEONARDI DA VINCI.—ThETO is an.old, dirty, unpretending building in Milan, once a convent, afterwards used as a barrack by the French, who have always assimilated their ideas more to the church mi- • litant than to the church triumphant, and often shewed their considerate attentions to the monastic order by eas ing them of any superfluity they might possess. 'Within. this convent is a large room unpromising in appearance, which yet contains one of those monuments of genius or inspiration so long appreciated by an admiring world—the- Last Supper of Leonardi da Vinci. The colours are fast fading from the wall, and in a few years nothing, perhaps, will remain but the remembrance of this glorious paint ing. Nothing—for although many have been the at tempts to reproduce it, and thousands of copies profesato give a true idea of the original, yet like many other things they fall far short of their professions. The world will at length learn that there are a few things which cannot be copied—which defy imitation, being themselves inimitable. Such arc those great monuments of man's creative power, which, as they assimilate the creature nearer to the Crea tor, so in our imperfect state are few and far between, a& palm trees in the desert, from whence centuries may date and which successive generations may long despair t o ' equal. The colouring of this famous painting has been often renewed, which circumstance may excite a similar question to that concerning the celebrated ship Argo, whe ther any portion of the original exists. But the expres sion of the Saviour's countenance, the lofty majesty of his brow, the melancholy yet commanding look of Him who grieved at the treachery of Judas, yet resigned Himself to His fate, these remain to attest a master hand—a noble spirit, which derived from the highest sources of inspira tion. It might seem as if the artist had caught one gleans from above, one heavenly glance, and fixed it there, the material realization of his own inspired thoughts. Such is genius, true and immortal. It seeks no meretricious greatness, no satisfaction except that of having amona plislied its task, fulfilled its mission. Regardless of inte rest, forgetful of the world, it asks not, but commands the homage of an admiring universe.—Dub. Univ. Magazine:. MANCHEStER.—The social, condition of Manchester is peculiar. Tho town lies somewhat in circles—like the lines on the plan of a city, If a series of lines were de scribed round the centre, at refpective radii of one, two, and three miles, the innermost circle would include the er mercantile section, and tfie principal shops ; the second boundary would enclose the great factories, and the, dwellings of the great mass of workers in them ; the third would mark the suburban residencies of the manufee turing aristocracy. Unlike every other large city in Eng land, Manchester has no West End ; a fact which has a most important bearing upon the social condition, and do mestic character of its principal inhabitants. The reason of this singular anomaly—which is much felt and re gretted by the open air living continentalist than by our selves—is, the smoke, which until very recently, wan poured in a poisonous state out of a thousand monster chimneys, renders the town itself very unhealthy as a constant habitation ; and the rich have rushed outward in every direction in search of purer air, and spots where flowers might grow : hence the suburbs which are all, snore or less picturesque, or beautiful, are coveted with. splendid villas and noble mansions surrounded with ample . and cultivated gardens. The entrance into the town on every side is charmingr The dwellings are mostly hand some and isolated, like the palatial residences of Rome. under the late Cmsars ; but the very fact prevents social intercourse amongst men so busy that they do not leave business till late in the evening. People live to far asunder to visit after the hours of rest; and hence each family is thrown back upon its own resources for enioy inent. Every domestic circle - becomes a little world, complete within itself ; having few, and requiring none, of those factitious sources of amusement which the metro polis so plentifully supplies. Fewer men keep hoasea, hut more men keep homes, there, than in the average of places.
