OXON'S EFFERVESCENT MAGNESIAN APE RIENT possesses all the efficacy of the most approved. Saline Purgatives, without the disagreeable taste which ren ders medicines of that class so obnoxious to the palate and stomach. Its operation is mild, effectual, unattended by pain or inconvenience, and does not induce any liability to take cold, or establish a necessity for the habitual use of Aperient Medicines. It is of eminent service in Pains in the Head, Sick Headache, Casual or Habitual Costiveness, Bilious Affections, Nausea, Sickness, Heartburn, Gout, Piles, Fistula, and for derangeme n t o f th e S tomach and Head, re sulting from excess either in eating or drinking. The effer vescence which takes place during its administration is peculiarly grateful to the stomach, and in marry cases of extreme irritability of that organ, it has been retained after all other medicines have been:rejected, and has succeeded in allaying the excessive vomiting after other means have failed. As an adjunct to the Harrogate, Cheltenham, and other wa ters. its valuable properties are well known. Many testimo nials of its efficacy, with other particulars, are inserted in the bill wrapped round each bottle.—Prepared only by Benjamin Moxon and Sons, Chemists, Hull._ Sold in Bottles at 2s. 9d_ 4s.

OIL has stood the test of thirty years, and is patro nised by the most illustrious pers onages . I t i s heldin high estimation at the Toilet as a Family Hair Oil ; it is of in estimable worth, and will preserve the Hair from infancy_to old age. J. M. need not caution the Public. The Hair Oils by which the country is inundated are already cried down by persons who have, in all probability, supplied them ; the trash, as so represented, is injurious in the extreme ; the dryness it produces, as well as turning the Hair grey, not unfrequently produce headache. The Botanic or Family Oil is distinguished from every other by its emolient and nutri tious properties ; it preserves the scalp agreeably cool, and it is an undoubted fact that, with the growth of Hair, the health is improved. The mode now adopted for the sale of the Botanic 'or Family Hair Oil will undoubtedly affect the London trade, and probably reform it. J. M. will personally appoint his Agents over England ; he will advertise his Oil, stating facts only, which his . Agents will warrant; and he assures his customers, no fraud will he attempted by false representation. But how different is the' London trade the proprietors depend on the advertisement alone—the vendors are not accountable—thus is the country inundated with trash which no person is answerable for. The following statement cannot fail to give a confidence of the superior efficacy of the Botanic Oil :—From 1820 to 1830 J. Middlewood's genuine botanic oil was interdicted by government, on the ground that it possessed properties, and performed such cures of baldness, as brought it within the meaning of' the patent medicine act, and not until its great utility in preserving the hair was submitted to parliament, could a legal sale be effected. The petition presented, met with the kindest attention, and the chancellor of the exche quer exempted it from the medicine duty, to be sold under the denomination of hair oil. The petition was presented by the Right Hon. Wm. Huskisson, on the 10th April, 1830, while Mr. Goulburn was chancellor of the exchequer. The Botanic Oil is sold at 25., 3s. 6c1., and 55., in boxes ; also, for the Toilet, 10s. per bottle. Mr. RgNNIE, Lord-street, has received a fresh supply Parker-street, Liverpool.

But read the following : From the John Bull, 6th May, 1839.—We copy the fol lowing from the Cheltenham Journal, being struck by its re ference to that eminent and successful oculist, James Ware, Esq., F.R.S., whose opinion touching the subject of which he treats will be read with interest. The discovery of Mr. Grimstone is simple, gentle, and certain, and by its unfailing influence on the nervous fabric of the head, possesses the un questionable power of relieving, assisting, and prolonging the sight even to extreme old age.---Editor. _ _ Cheltenham Journal, 22d April, 1839.—" That most emi nent oculist, James Ware, Esq., F.R.S., was so strongly im prtssed with the utility of snuff not made of tobacco, that in the third volume of the Medical Society's Works, page 334, this able oculist read several cases of gutty serena cured by the plentiful use of snuff. This snuff was made without the aid of tobacco, that being too great a narcotic to be used as a remedy. • The anticipations of this gentlemen have been fully realised by Mr. William Grimstone, the Inventor of Eye Snuff, made from aromatic herbs, so judiciously ar ranged as in almost every case of disease touching the eye, ear, and the delicate organs of the head, to produce a certain cure. "—Editor. " There are, perhaps, few articles which are so universally used as snuff, and various and innumerable have been the devices to tickle our hoses at the expense of our pockets, but there is only one snuff—albeit many have been attempted— which has proved of any value, or indeed realised the inten tion of the consumers. Grimstone's Eye Snuff is a delightful and fragrant compound, and possesses properties peculiarly its own ; for, unlike all other snuffs, it is really of essential and important service to persons of studious habits, and of weak and infirm sight ; and if we may judge by the numerous medical gentlemen who have borne testimony to its merits, and the many well authenticated cures it has perfornied, it is not undeserving of the high esteem which it has already attained, not only in this but in other countries."—Old Eng land, 11th January, 1840. "We should be glad to see this snuff in general use. It is a safe and powerful restorative.—Manchester Chronicle. " GRIMSTONE'S EYE SlS'UFF. — Notwithstanding the sys tem of puffing which is carried on in this vast metropolis, we rsally must claim for Mr. Grimstone the distinction of being a benefactor to his species. We have had ocular demonstra tion of the value of his snuff, which we tried out of curiosity, having at the same time a slight affection of opthalmia, which the use of the snuff very speedily removed. We therefore cordially recommend it to the public."—Crown, Aug. 26,1838. " If any testimony were wanting to prove the efficacy of Grimstone's Eye Snuff, we should be most happy to throw ours into the grand scale of demonstrations and proofs already possessed by the inventor. Literary men, and individuals accustomed to sedentary habits or long reading, will find this snuff invaluable in keeping off headache, dizziness, &c. &c. —Old Monthly Magazine, September, 1838, p. 336.

I naturally concluded (being in my 69th. year) that it was the decay of nature, and was advised by a friend, who said much in its favor, and the extraordinary virtues of your celebrated invention, I was induced to give it a trial, and I am happy to say that the great and signal benefit I have derived from the use of four 2s 4d canisters has ena bled me to lay aside my spectacles, has given me great relief in my head, and I feel so thoroughly convinced of its benign virtues, that my gratitude shall ever be evinced in recom mending it to all I may hereafter meet suffering with those afflictions.—l am, sir, your most obliged an d grate f u l servant, To W. Grimstone, Esq. ANN COLE. To W. Grimstone, Esq. inventor of Eye Snuff; 39, Broad-rt. Whitehall, March 8, 1838. Mr. Grimstone,—Sir, I think it but justice that I should offer my acknowledgments to you for the great benefit I have derived from the use of your most exquisite fragrant com pound, composed of herbs, called Eye Snuff; its action on the membrane of the nose, causing the lachrymal glands to discharge in a manner truly surprising, and by that means to cleanse the cornea, that my eyes became healthy, strong, and performed their wonted duties in a manner that 1 have not known the blessing of for six years. The renowned Dr. Guthrie recommended me to try your eye snuff prior to my undergoing an operation. Many thanks to him for his sug gestion, thanks to your invention, that operation will not be necessary. Sir, you have my permission to make this known in any manner you think best. I am, sir, your obedient servant, J. B. LACHFIELD. • P.S.—Sir, be pleased to send to the Thatched House Tav ern, St. James-street, a4s 4d and a3s 4d canister.

PHE accounts l a t e l y rece i ve d from Macao, brought intelli gencel of the English having been totally expelled from China, and that hostilities had actually commenced between Her Majesty' s f orces, d i rected by her Superintendent in person, and Chinese men of war; in other words, China is at war with England. And the questions upon which the two countries are now at issue being of such difficult adjust ment as to render it almost impossible, and certainly impro bable, that any more teas can be obtained from China for a very considerable period, a great rise in all descriptions of that article has taken place. Since June last, common black teas have risen ls. 9d., and fine green, 3s. per lb. Fine Hyson, with duty, fetched at the late public sales, 9s. 'id. per lb. ; fine black teas as high as 6s. 7d., whilst up to this mo ment, Captain Pidding has continued to allow his teas to be sold without any advance whatever. The late great rise, however, having caused a run upon his teas by the trade, who found that they could purchase them cheaper retail than they could buy inferior teas wholesale, he .is compelled to raise the price, to prevent his remaining stock being purchased by tea dealers. For the present, Captain Pidding's How- QUA'S 'MIXTURE will. be sold at the rate of 6s. 9d. ner lb., being 9s. the catty, or an advance of on l y 9d. per lb., when the commonest teas, since June, h ave advanced ls. au SMALL LEAF G UNPOWDER will he sold,9d ftrrthe present, at Os. 9d. per lb., when even Hyson, an inferior te a , is fetching, wholesale, 9s. 7d. per lb catties in like proportions. • Half and quarter Captain Pidding thinks it right to inform the public that his Chinese correspondent states confidently, that there is no probability of the trade opening with that country, for, at the least, twelve month s ; and as the entire stock of consumable tea in Great Britain will be exhausted before that period, there is little doubt but tea will advance d a ily. These Teas cons i st of Captain. Pidding's HOWQUA'S MIXTURE, of 40 rare Black Teas, and HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER,in Chinese Catty Packages. N.B.—The signature of " Captain JOHN RHODES PID DING" is upon every genuine package. GEO. CARLYLE, Repository, 38, Bold-street. Sole Agent Bolton G. . ... for LIVERPOOL. G J. French, Silk Mercer.

PERILOUS SITUATION OF THE ROYAL FAMILY OF FRANCE. (From the Standard of Wedneedag.) CALMS, Aug. 18.—The King, Madame Adelaide, their Royal Highuesses the Duke and Duchess of Nemours, the Princess Clementine, the Dukes of Aumale and of Montpen sier, accompanied by the Minister of War, of the Marine, and of the Interior, embarked at Eti, the 16th in s t a nt,- a t 12 o'clock at night, their intention being to touch at Boulogne, which her Majesty, the Queen, was to reach by land. The weather having been very stormy, the Veloce, after trying to enter the harbour of their destination, was obliged to make for Calais. At two o'clock of the afternoon of 'the 17th, the royal steamer was in sight of the latter port, and guns were fired to announce the arrival and to signal a pilot. At half-past two the vessel was threading the channel, when the violence of wind and waves bore her away on the works of the new jetty, where she grounded in a situation of immi nent peril, after experiencing some damage in her hull. As soon as it was possible to effect a debarkation, the King ordered all on board to be landed, and determined to remain the last on deck. The inhabitants of the place, who thronged to the shore, received the august travellers with an enthusiasm of devotion proportioned to the imminence of the danger, and the in tense anxiety which they had experienced on beholding it. The King declined entering his carriage, and traversed on foot, and without escort, the assembled crowd, amidst the most cordial acclamations. At half-past three his Majesty, the Princes, and the Mi nisters passed the review of the National Guards, and of the troops, and testified the pleasure he experienced at the loyal manifestationi of the National Guard. At five, the Queen was seen coming by land from liloulogne, in the anxious hope of beholding her family, whicn was known to be exposed to the dangers of the stormy elements. Her interview with her family amidst thousands of specta tors was affecting in the extreme. An hour later the town parted with its august guests, who left for Boulogne. (From the Second Edition of the Standard.) We had scarcely gone to press before we received the fol lowing letter from our Boulogne correspondent, which we hasten to lay before our readers : " BOuLOGNt, TUUSDAY NIGHT.—The city was alarmed this morning by the sound of the rereiW, beaten to collect the National Guard, so early as five o'clock. All unquiet feeling was, however, soon dissipated by the information that the military muster was intended merely to greet the arrival of the King and Queen of the French, who were on their way from Dieppe, the one by sea, the other by land. The parti culars of the King's unpropitious voyage are given in an ex cellent local journal, the Boulogne Gazette, to which I refer you for all that transpired at Boulogne up to the hour of its publication. I have to add, that his Majesty arrived at about half-past eight p.m. He was received a few hundred yards beyond the Calais gate by the Sub-Prefect, and about 70 national guards. The royal cortege; which consisted of seven carriages, was welcomed by a great crowd (respect being had to the bad weather) with considerable enthusiasm. .'heir Majesties proceeded, on their arrival, to the theatre, where they remained ebout.an hour; they were there received with unabated warmth. I have heard that the Veloce shipped a sea off Grisney, which disabled one of her paddles, and ren dered it necessary for the frigate in attendance to tow her into Calais. The King suffered much from sea sickness, the traces of which were still evident when he arrived here. An incident of some interest occurred, upon the truth of which you may rely: Mr. Romeo Coates, once so well known in the fashionable world of London, occupied a handsome suite of apartments at the Hotel du Nord ; these apartments he politely surrendered to the use of the Royal Family. As the King ascended the stairs of the hotel, he honoured Mr. Coates with a bow and a smile of recognition, which the latter an swered by shouting " Vice le Roi ! Vivant la France et l'Angleterre Soit entre elle* le paia• par for fours I" The King hastily seized the opportunity, and replied to Mr. Coates in English, somewhat better than that gentleman's French—" Yes, eternal prosperity to England and to France —eternal peace between them ; and I promise you that while I live you shall have peace." (From the Boulogne Gazette of Monday.) HIS MAJESTY LOUIS PHILIPPE'S VISIT TO BOULOGNE. This morning, at half-past five, we were roused from our slumberi by the rappel. Why, we exclaimed, Prince Louis is not landing again ! We were soon in the streets, and, in answer to our inquiries, found that the present bustle was a joyful one,--not to summon to arms to repulse a pretender, but to hail the arrival of that monarch for whom life had been perilled, and who, so soon as important affairs would allow him a command over his actions, had hastened to re turn thanks to the loyal people who had turned out in his defence, and personally to reward all who had acted cou rageously in the moment of trial. On inquiry we learnt that his Majesty had started from En last night at 11 o'clock, in his yacht La Reine Amelie, accompanied by the Veloce and Courrier steamers, and was now lying in the roadstead till the tide would permit the yacht to enter the harbour, which would not be before past 12. We 'hastened to the port to be satisfied of the truth, and here unfortunately witnessed a sight that thrilled all assembled with horror. The two ves sels were lying a mile and a half from shore. A. boat was seen to leave the steamer, and another to follow it from the yacht; the word ran round, " The. King is coming! " but p ;• e a a s re r d ol ; li a n l g l in. wa s anxiety; ety boat ;i t r rose rose the joy was a little damped from the risk he ran in the heavy and sea that dis a sea, when a cross p to on th t e he top bi f w as wave struck it and overit went ! The sen sations of all may be imagined. The other boat instantly rowed to the spot, they were seen to pick up four individuals. We breathed free again, hoping that all were saved ; it was, however, clear, after a time, they were searching for some one that was lost; after a few minutes they continued their course to land. We are happy to say that his Majesty was not in either of the boats, but regret to add that this joyful day was c l ou d e d by the death of the cockswain 'in the pilot boat, who, it was supp ose d, was b orne away b y th e rap id current that sweeps over the bar. Capt. Pollet had boarded the steamer; we soon'/earnt there would be no attempt to laud before the flood tide enabled the vessels to enter the harbour. During the morning the rain poured in torrents, the wind blew a strong gale, and the vessels icere obliged to put to sea. Crowds were on the port in anxious expectation; but their curiosity was not gratified. The king landed at Calais. Her majesty had arrived at eight a. m., expecting to find the king; she drove to the establishment and rem a i ne d there till nearly two in expectation of his landing. The Courier and the Reine Amelie entered the harbour at one o'clock. The king was in the Veloce steamer ; he had not entered the town from Calais at six o'clock. THE LANDSLIP NEAR AXMOUTH.--A few days age, we, for the second' time, visited this highly interesting phenome non ; and the more we examine its mighty and varied parts, involving in their ample range the total ruin of about 500 acres of land and cliffs, the more are we struck with the extent of the dilapidation, the wild magnificence of the spec tacle, and . the mysterious cause that has produced effects at once so vast, complete, and sublime. The great chasm of the slip, extending from the sea cliffs at the %rest- extremity of this singularly interestin,g scene, inland, northward, for nearly three-quarters of a mile, and then SWeeping eastward, in the form of a crescent; is more than a mile in length, by five hundred yards wide ; and this large portion of the sur face having sunk, throughout the whole of its course, full two hundred feet, leaving naked perpendicular rocks, of the ehalklormation, on either side : on the bottom of this yawn ing recess stands a succession of dissimilar pyramids of stra tified rock, crowned with their scanty depth of mould and caps of green undisturbed. What is still m ore remar k a bl e , a consider a bl e part o f an adjoining wheat field, after falling to so great a depth, remains in the deep' repose of its abase ment, with its crust unbroken, and now bearing a luxuriant crop fast ripening into maturity ; and is to be reaped on the 25th inst. by . all visitors who may desire to join in the ope ration ; and it is to be sold in handfuls on the ground.— Local paper. .
