THE TIMES. AMORE important period than the present for purchasing unquestionably EXCELLENT, USEFUL, AND SUPERIOR GENERAL DRAPERY has never occurred arising from the peculiar juncture of those powerful agencies which have had the most alarming, general, and distressing in fluence upon commercial operations. PUBLIC CALAMITIES, or the causes that check the tide of national prosperity and happiness, are not grateful subjects upon which to dwell ; but it must be a matter of deep regret to all possessed of enlarged and benevolent views to witness the disastrous consequences re sulting from the rash credulity with which so vast a number have involved themselves in RAILWAY DIFFICULTIES, which paralyze the manufacturing energies of the country, and leave yet untold many a fearful tale of deplorable and utter ruin. Casualties against which human sagacity affords no pro tection, such as the r re3ent MONETARY EMBARRASSMENTS, together with the almost unexampled duration of MILD AND UNSEASONABLE WEATHER, have caused large Stocks of Winter Goods to ramain on hand, high, in order to prevent further depreciation in value, must be cleared off at such prices as must induce purchases, not only for present, but ANTICIPATED NECESSITIES. To many unconnected with Trade this may be difficult of comprehension : to the man of business it is too painfully intelligible. JOHN BRISCOE, 60 6. 62, OLDHALL-STREET, has secured several extensive Lots of Goods that have been recklessly thrown into the London markets by various Manu facturers, alarmed at the late POLITICAL CRISIS, and which are now offered for sale at prices that bear no rela tion to real value. A quotation of Prices, it is to be regretted, as used by the mass of advertisers, is generally fallacious, but the following brief enumeration will furnish a slight medium by which to judge of the advantages and general character of the Goods now offered : CHIOCE SPITALFIELDS DUCAPES: AND TURCS, IN CHECKED, STRIPED, PLAIN, AND SHOT, From IBad. per Yard.

ITY.OP FOOD!!! A QUERY - FOR FARMERS. Who is the greater benetattor? ' He who makes his field pro duce an additional bushel of corn, or he who preserves from destruction an equal amount of produce ? It is a well-known fact, that great losses of Corn, Provisions, &c. are annually occasioned . by the rava ges s of Veimin and noxious Insects, and at the present tune it is especially impor tant to save as well as to multiply. BUTLER'S VERMIN AND INSECT KILLER is proved to be a most safe and effectual means of Destroying Rats, Mice, Beetles, Bugs, Crickets, &c., . THE . PROOF, Mr. Williams, Vicarage Farm, High Wycombe, writes that " he has used it successfully in his Ricks, and can, therefore, recom after it to other farmers." Mr. Hornsby, of Odihain, Hants, after once using it in a building infested w i th R a t s , w h ere h e h a d tried various means in vain, says, "By next morning the baits were all eaten, and I have not seen a Rat about the place since !" Mr. King, Druggist, Bath, says, " I can bear testimony to its excellent properties for Rats, having tried it in my own house with singular effect !" Mr. Ball, of Wycombe, whose bakehouse swarmed with black beetles and crickets, says, "They have now nearly all disappeared !" Mr. Harwood, of Bristol, after trying it once only, on board the brig Monmonth and the Seaman's Chapel, which were overrun with rats and mice, writes," I cannot speak too highly of the Killer : the mice are all vanished. The mystery is, what is become of them? for I can trace no signs of them ; I have not been troubled with rats or mice sinc e I I I" though a month had then elapsed. And Mr. Fogg, Druggist, Lewes, says, "In every instance where I have had an opportu nity of making the inquiry of purchasers, I have been assured of its decided efficiency, and in proof of its public character I have sold a considerable quantity entirely through the recom mendation of those who have proved its value."

"Sta,—ln the complete burning of the whole of our pre mises on Moniy last, the only things saved out of the stock and property re our Books, which we feel that we owe en tirely to MILNERS' FIRE-RESISTING SAFE, in which we kept them. The Sife bears evidence of the intense fire it had re sisted, and it was with as much surprise as gratitude that, on breaking it open after the fire, we found instead of ashes as we expected, our Books perfect as we left them.

EXTRAORDINARY CURE of COUGH, by t a ki ng LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM. The wonderful curative properties of this celebrated medicine, for the cure of Asthma, Influenza, Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Wheezing at , the Chest, and all Pulmonary Complai n t s , remains without a competitor. Sufferers from Influenza and Coughs arising from taking Cold will find it an unfailing remedy, giving relief in a few minutes, and effecting a perfect cure in a few days. Those afflicted with Asthma, of however long standing, or prevented from even lying down for fear of suffo cation, may rely on immediate relief, and a cure will certainly follow the use of it. The following extraordinary cure is selected from among the many hundreds of unsolicited testimonials, and will speak for its decided efficacy. To Mr. W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 20, Jermyn-street, Hay market, London. . _ Sir,—About four years since I caught a severe cold which ter minated in a violent Cough with pitting of Blood; I tried every remedy which my friends recommended, without receiv ing any benefit; last winter the Cough so much increased in violence, and the spitting of blood became so frequent, and at tended with all the symptoms of a rapid consumption; I con tinued in this dreadful state notwithstanding I had the advice. of some of the most eminent physicians, and gave up all hope of recovering. Seeing in the newspapers some extraordinary cures which your Asmathic Balsam had performed, as a last resource I was induced to try its efficacy ; to my great astonish ment and delight, in less than a week, I perceived a wonderful benefit, and by the time I had taken two of the 2s. 3d. bottles, with gratitude I acknowledge, I was perfectly well.
