The Compounding Department for the preparation of Physi cians' and Surgeons' Prescriptions, as at his Establishment in the Park-road, will at all times be supplied with the more recently discovered Medecines, and nothing will be overlooked which the experience of many years in the first houses of business can suggest to render this branch of his business complete in every respect. SCHWEPPE'S SODA WATER AND LEMONADE. Park-road, August sth, 1848. TIC DOLOREUX CURABLE. TOOTHACHE. AN unfailing remedy for these dreadful Diseases, whether arising from cold or from the decay of the teeth, will be found in JAMES' CELEBRATED ASTILIAN TINCTURE FOR THE TIC DOLOREUX. This preparation has only tobe tried in order that its value may be duly appreciated,—the first application not only easing the patient of all pain, but effecting, in almost every case, a lasting cure. This medicine is also a certain specific for Spasms, however violent, especially in the stomach or bowels, and spasmodic affections of every kind, sudden attacks of epilepsy, and the like ; and from its perfect freedom from anything of a delete rious character, may be administered under any circumstances with entire safety. AGENT FOR LIVERPOOL: THOMAS LOWS, CHEMIST, 38, ISLINGTON, and 40, NORTON-STREET, And may be had of any respectable Patent Medicine Vendor, In Bottles, price 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., and 7s. 6d. each: N.B.—Full directions are enclosed in each packet. CONCENTRATED DECOCTION OR FLUID EXTRACT OF THE FINEST JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA. This most efficient and agreeable Preparation of that well-known and valuable alterative, JAMAICA SAR SAPARILLA, 'is prepared by a peculiar and scientific method, by which the whole of the aromatic and volatile parts are preserved ; and the experience of many years has fully established the reputation of this Medicine, as containing more of the virtues of the root than any other preparation. Its beneficial effects have been par ticularly striking in the following complaints : Nocturnal Pains in the Limbs, Scrofulous Enlargement of the Glands, Cutaneous Affections, Chronic Rheumatism, &c., &c. ; in free ing the system after a course of Mercury its beneficial effects are very powerful. It purifies the blood, and by giving to the cutaneous vessels a healthy and regular action, it removes that disposition to Erysipilatous Inflammation from which so many persons periodically suffer; and when taken in the Spring and Fall of the Year as an Alterative Medicine, it will be found to impart that strength to the constitution which is indicated by firmness of flesh, good appetite, .and freshness of the com plexion. Prepared and sold only by JOHN PRIESTLEY, 52, Lord street, Liverpool,in Bottles - at 4s. 6d., 7s. 6d. Ils., and 225. PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS, Sold in Boxes, ls. 6d. each, containing twenty-four Powders, which approach nearer than anything yet discovered to the Chalybeate Waters of Germany. The style of preparing PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS iS peculiar to himself and combine'scientific skill with' great accuracy; and though num bers of people unacquainted with the business, and others, have of late years attempted imitations, they have invariably been found to be spurious compounds, neither possessing the agree able flavour nor the medicinal preperties of. the Seidlitz Waters LEMONADE POWDERS, Is. 6d. a Box. GINGER BEER POWDERS, Is. 6d. a Box. SODA POWDERS, Is. a Box. PRIESTLEY'S COUGH AND ASTHMATICAL FOR COUGHS, COLDS, ASTHMAS, CONSUMPTIONS, &C. &C. This invaluable Medicine immediately relieves Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Difficulty of Breathing, and Huskiness in the Throat. These Drops are also the best preventative that can be taken against SPITTING OF BLOOD, and AFFECTION of the LUNGS. Persons troubled with ASTHMA are considerably relieved by taking a few doses of the Drops, as they tend to promote expectoration and remove viscid phlegm.

TN the last great Fire in George-street, Manchester, 11 nine large Houses had their Books burned in Iron Safes, Closets with Iron Doors, Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) Safes, &c. &c. &c. ; and again on the above recent occasion, a great number of parties have suffered the same calamity. The only Safe which brought its contents uninjured out of the burning mass being the one alluded to below. " Manchester, August 13th, 1847. " GENTLEMEN In the late Fire in Market-street, which entirely gutted the entire block of buildings of which my Ware house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you that my books, together with a quantity of valuable papers, watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire resisting Safes, which I strongly recommend to the public. , I am your obedient servant, " THOMAS HAIGH, Woollen Merchant, " New Brown-street and Market-street. " Messrs. Milner and Son." The outside of this Safe was partially melted: the contents inside unsinged, being steamed (boiled instead of burned) by the evaporating principle of the Safe. Near to it a large Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) chambered Safe, full of valuable Books and Documents before the Fire, was found to contain nothing but tinder and ashes after it I In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests which Milners' Safes have been exposed to—every description of Safe in use—Fireproof (so called) or otherwise have been burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the scientific and practical authorities who have tested them, and the Patentees' during seven years' active working of their patent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains nor cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete and secure depositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables ; in cluding the strongest Wrought-iron Safes. Closets, and Doors in the World. lined with their uneaualled Fire-resisting Cham bers. Out of upwards of 20.000 of their Sates in use amongst the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses of Great Britain— the class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of exposure to accidental fire have occurred, from which Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they are of opinion that no other Safe than their own would have preserved its contents unburnt. Fire at Mr. J. Blackaller's Ship and Chandlery Store, Spar ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierc Fire; Safe most severely burnt outside; contents unsinged. I've at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders, Birkenhead ,• buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in them, including the contents of large Iron Safe and drawers, standing besides Milners'; the contents of Milners' uninjured, and in use now. Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong fire; again the contents of Mitners' Safe the only thing saved on the premises. Fire at Plimsaul Brothers', of Plymouth; a very extensivc and destructive fire; a large Iron Safe covered with brickwork with double Iron doors burnt out; Milners' entirely preserving its contents. Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number of Safes and Closets burnt out; no books saved throughout the buildings excepting Messrs. S. It. and Thomas Browns', in Milners Safe.

THE MOST DURABLE OUT-DOOR PAINT YET INVENTED. CARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION PAINT, specially patronised by the British and other Governments, the Hon. East India Company, the New River Company, the Principal Dock Companies, and other Public Bodies. Manufactured by WALTER CARSON, (Successor to the I hventors,) 15, TOKEN HOUSE YARD, (back of the Bank of England,) London. The Anti-Corrosion Paint has been used by the Hon. Board of Ordnance for upwards of half a century, who have proved it to prevent rust or corrosion on iron longer and better than the very best white lead or any . other description of Paint ; and in consequence of its possessing this invaluable quality, all the iron guns and gun carriages, both for land and sea service, have been painted with it for the above period. It has also been used in great quantities by other public bodies, and by numbers of Gentlemen of the first distinction, to preserve wooden houses, farm and other outbuildings, conservatories, park-paling, gates, iron railings, iron hurdles, copper, zinc, lead, old compo, 8 - ! c. fronts, and tiles to represent slating. It will be found a very superior preservative of iron steam boats, iron bridges, piers, or any other extensive iron works. This Paint is admirably adapted for preventing the decay of old Stone or Brick Mansions, Churches, or other public edifices requiring an effectual defence azainst the elements, as it will become harder than stone in a 'few months after it is laid on. It is particularly recommended to West India Proprietors, Emigrants, and others connected with the Colonies, who will find it to stand all climates better than any other Pakt. The superiority of the Anti-Corrosion to any other Paint may be easily inferred from the simple fact that its use has been always most strenuously opposed by Co' or Manufacturers, Painters, Oil and Colormen, and all others interested in the sale of common Paint. _ _ Noblemen and Landed Proprietors, anxious to have their outbuildings, &c. properly preserved, will effect a very consi derable saving by desiring their Stewards to order the Anti • Corrosion Paint, as any labourer can lay it on, thereby avoiding the enormous charges generally made by Painters. The Anti-Corrosion is a Powder, and it will keep any length of time. Colors : White stone, light ditto, drab or Portland ditto, Bath ditto, light and dark yellow ditto, light and dark oak, brown, light and dark lead, light and dark chocolate, bright and dark red, copper and black, 345. per cwt. ; invisible green, 505., deep green, 605., bright green, 605., and blue, (for carts and wagons,) 60s. per cwt.

C. begs respectfully to call the attention of the No bility, Gentry, and others having out-door work to preserve, to the testimonials in its favour, which, from their number, (upwards of 300,) and the rank and station in society of those who have given them, have, perhaps, never yet been equalled by anything of the kind hitherto brought before the public notice.

TAIMIGRATION being much required i n AUSTRA LIA, NEW ZEALAND, &c., and as the supposed expense of an OUTFIT often prevents individuals emigrating, 'S. W.

S. W. S. and Co., being the makers of nearly every article in all the Outfits they supply, and as one of their objects is to pro mote EMIGRATION, they neither receive from Agents, or pay the too esual commission to any person introducing Passengers to be fitted out, so that the Passage and Outfit may be procured at the least possible expense; but they will, on application, advise Passengers how to obtain the most economic passage to the Colonies. They have a Representative in every Australian Colony, to whom they ship Clothing monthly; thus they would forward small parcels free of expense.

Some of their advantat;es are -I.—Economy in Price; to the extent of from 25 to 40 per cent. ll.—Economy in Time and Labour ;—only the one hun dredth part of the weights is required to be lifted ; one-half of the time occupied in weighing is entirely saved. lll,—Economy in Space;—they have only one Platform or Scale; no fixtures'are required for suspension; no room is oc cupied by weights. IV.—Economy in Annual Expense ;—they require less pe riodical adjustment ; the centres are detached from their bearings, and of course exempt from wear, except at the mo ment of ascertaining the weight.

It may be fixed, if required, in a pit only fifteen inches deep; it occupies only half the usual space in the office; it is more exact in its indications than any of the old kinds of Weigh-bridges. The celebrity of FAIRBANKS' MACHINES, OF , POOLEY'S MANUFACTURE, has induced many imitatio ns , h av i ng a professed and specious resenthlance, at a low price.

The following case will illustrate the success of the treatment adopted:— " James Pollard, aged 20 years, residing at 6.5, Preston-street, had suffered from a most inveterate scrofulous complaint of the head from the early age of four years ; his head was a complication of such accumulated disease, so loathsome to the sight, so offensive to the smell, and altogether so repulsive, that those who were under the necessity of attending upon him, performed that service with reluctance. He had been under the care of different gentlemen of the medical profession, com bining all the skill and talent of this neighbourhood. He was also a patient for ten months in the Liverpool Infirmary, and six months at the Dispensary ; but there the combined skill of the most eminent of the faculty was defeated, as the individual exertions had before been. As a last effort he was placed under the care of Mr. Taylor, who succeeded in effecting a perfect cure, and he is now well, healthy, clean, and strong : and likely to have a good head of hair.

T HE STRONGEST POSSIBLE EVIDENCE that can be given in relation to the HEALING QUALITIES of HOLLINGSWORTH'S AMERICAN INDIAN SUGAR-COATED PILLS is a statement of cures effected by their use. Read the follow inK:= "To Messrs. Pearson & Co., 110, London-road, Liverpool.— Gentlemen,—l have much pleasure in making you acquainted with the great benefits I have realised in the use of Hollings worth's American Indian Sugar-coated Pills. For six months I had been afflicted with severe pains in my side stomach, and back s attended also with great loss of a pp e tite. In the hope of alleviating my sufferings, I applied to several medical advisers, tried a variety of means, and spent much money, but all to no good purpose, for notwithstanding all the medicines I took, I still got worse; and to such a state of weakness was I reduced, that it was with great difficulty I could walk up stairs. My stomach so loathed my food, that I became extremely weak and hopeless, and expected not to live to see another Chnstmas day. Providentially I noticed an advertisement in the Liver pool Mercury, describing the renovating properties of your palatable Pills ; 1 procured a box at your establishment, and made a trial by taking a dose morning and evening for about two weeks, according to the printed directions; and now I am happy in stating Rublicly that the use of the Pills has removed my distressing pains, and fully restored my appetite, so that I may say I have risen from near de a th' s door. Any person calling at my residence may have every information. Although the time is so short since I first commenced taking your medi cine, I find my strength so increased that I can attend to my domestic affairs with pleasure. I mean to take a dose of Pills daily until I feel not a vestige of my late distressing complaint remains. You are at liberty to make this public, and use it in any way you think proper, for the benefit of my fellow-sufferers. Hoping all that are afflicted as I have been may use and realise the same benefits from your medicine, I remain, yours grate fully, Watkinson's-buildings, Pembroke-place, Liverpool. ' THE AMERICAN INDIAN SUGAR-COATED•PILLS carry off all impure matter, purge the bowels and all the fluids, cause a FREE AND HEALTHY CIRCULATION OF THE BLOOD. give tone to the stomach, liver, lungs, and every organ of the human body, and thus prevent, alleviate, and CURE COMPLAINTS OF EVERY KIND, because THEY STRIKE AT THE ROOT OF DISEASE, and remove the cause they cannot be taken according to rections without decided benefit. Being enveloped with a coating of sugar perfectly disguises the taste of the medicine, and they are so agreeable that children will take them with pleasure.—Sold Wholesale and Retail by PEARSON & CO., 110, LONDON-ROAD, LIVERPOOL, to whom all communications must be addressed.
