MILK PUNCH ROYAL ! MANUFACTURER OF MILK PUNCH TO HER MAJESTY THIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has, for nearly a century, been duly appreciated at CHIeiIESTER AND THE METROPOLIS. It was at the former place where the original projector of this delectable beverage had his abode ; no doubt the corporation of that ancient borough evinced their good taste, and marked their approbation of this GREAT DISCOVERY, by presenting to him the freedom of the town ; but with that the present generation have nothing to do ; suffice it to say, that this ELIXIR is now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the bon rivants of the northern parts of this great Kingdom for their judgment. It would be quite in vain to enter into any detail of its excellencies, yet, thus far may be vouched, that it is composed of the best materials, without any adulteration, and, in flavour, possesses the combined sweetness of the Grape, the fragrance of the Lime, with the exhiliration of Champagne ; and while THE LORDS OF THE CREATION will find it an excellent addenda to the Dinner Table THE GENTLER SEX may not disdain to sip, the more so as ROYALTY has acknowledged its transcendant merit. It has been intimated that it will prevent SEA SICKNESS, but of that we will not vouch, never having crossed the " briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro prietors of PACKET-SHIPS AND STEAMERS take the hint ? And although it may not produce that " con summation devoutly to be wished," yet, sure we are, its grateful properties are such as will be found to be an excellent restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate, and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence, improves by age. LE GRAND GOURMAND will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and Calepee, and the temperate man, while he masticates his biscuit over a glass of it, will he constrained to eulogise this incomparable Liqueur. " Cope and try, . , Don't like—don't buy," is an old saying and a good one ; and as in matters of taste every man is the best judge, this invitation is given in the full assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

A fine young Bear slaughters on Saturday last. Thee Grease, of the finest quality, may be had in Pots, at Is. 6d., 2s. 6d., and ss. 6d., and the Marrow in. Bottles, at 10s. 6d. The imposition practised on the Public by persons vending a composition called "Bear's Grease," without a particle of the genuine fat therein, having brought this inestimable arti cle into disrepute, has induced M. K. to have the Animals fed and slaughtered on the Premises. In a few days another fine young Bear (which may now be seen alive) will be slaughtered, and the genuine Grease, either prepared or as cut from the animal, may be had at per ounce. M. K. has the satisfaction of acquainting the Gentry of Liverpool that E. Fox is engaged as PRINCIPAL ASSISTANT, and the talents he possesses as Hair Dresser and Wig Maker is a sufficient guarantee that all orders sent to 63, BOLD STREET, will be executed in first-rate style.

THIS INSTITUTION, th e F oun d a ti on - s t one o f w hi c h was laid by the Worshipful HUGH HORNOY, Esq., Mayor, on Friday, the 24th of October, 1839, was OPENED on Monday the 26th of October, this year—the number of Children present being 47 ; of whom 23 are Day Pupils re siding in the Town, and 24 arc Boarders from distant places. The accommodation in the New Building will now enable the Committee to attend to the numerous and earnest appli cations made for the Admission of Pupils, which, for want of room in the Old School, they were unable to take into their consideration. The present Building is capable of accommodating 80 Boarders, and as many D a y S c h o l ars as t h e T own an d Neigh bourhood can supply. The total number of Children admitted into the Institu tion sinco its first establishment in Wood-street, in January, 1826, is 140, of whom 90 having participated in the Instruc tion it afforded, which, in most cases was gratuitous, left the School for Trade or Service, for which they were found eligible, or to assist their parents or friends at home. The Children of POOR PERSONS residing in the Town or Neighbourhood are admitted into the School as Day Pupils, and provided with a good substantial Dinner, FREE OF EX PENSE : and from all parts of the United Kingdom, as Boarders at a very moderate charge.

The style of preparing PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS iS pe culiar to himself, and combines scientific skill with great ac curacy ; 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 ar e put up i n a v ery eligible form fo r ex portation, or to use at sea, and will keep any length of time in all climates. Prepared and sold only by JOHN PRIEST LEY, No. 52, Lord -street. where also may be had Seidlitz Powders in Packets. IMPROVED SODA POWDERS It has been observed — tKatTh; Soda Water, when kept in jars, parts with its carbonic gas ; that carriage of it to a dis tance has been attended with risk and considerable expense ; and that, from these inconveniences, its use has been con fined chiefly to large cities and their environs. To obviate these objections, and to extend the use of this agreeable and efficacious Water, the ingredients for making it are offered to the public.—Sold in Boxes, at Is. 6d. each. FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro perties of Sarsaparilla Root., To persons, therefore, who, from - various pauses, 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 ples, &o. 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. PRIESTLEY'S FLUID MAGNESIA. A pure transparent solution, in which all the virtues of that admirable Medicine are concentrated. As an Antacid and Cooling Medicine for grown persons or children it can not be surpassed, and being nearly tasteless, children will take it without trouble. In conjunction with the Syrup of Citron it forms an effervescing draught. The Syrup of Citron, added to water, makes delicious Le monade, And as a refreshing drink in summer nothing can be more agreeable. PRIESTLEY'S STOMACHIC OR DINNER PILLS. These pills are purely Vegetable, and to those troubled with Indigestion or sensation of fulness at the stomach after meals they are invaluable.—ln Boxes at Is. and 2s. 6d. each. 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 artificial Hair a peculiar soft ness of texture and luxuriant appearance. Sold in Bottles at Is. 3d. and 3s. each. _ _ _ CHEMICAL MARKING INK, For Writing on Linen with a Common Pen. This is very suporior to the generality of what are called Permanent inks.

The following testimonial of a most eminent physician, late a lecturer on Midwifery and the Diseases of Women and Children, is by his permission submitted to the public. " 7, Upper Kennington-lane, Vauxhall, Sept. 17, 1840. _ " Dear Sir,---1 am happy in again bearing testimony to the-value of your excellent Concentrated Syrup of Senna, with respect to which my experience has assured me of its a bsence of griping and nauseating properties, its pure and unadulterated preparation, containing within a comparatively small bulk the whole of the essential principle of that valuable medicine, together with the fact of its being so efficacious as in my opinion to supersede in a majority of cases the use of those violent and drastic purgatives, calomel, aloes, and jalap.' These qualities, combined with the additional advantage of its very agreeable taste, render it a most valuable aperient, calculated not only for general domestic purposes, but which is more particularly adapted for the lying-in room and the nursery, inasmuch as it may be administered to children of the tenderest age with pleasute and 'eat advantage. yours faithfully, " J 01124 POWER, M.l) ".
