A perse- Vera a ' ic e ill its use has been the happy means of relieving ~_anY thousands, and of restoring a great number to the per nFlit enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in all disorders of the digestive organs, and is especially recona ,!e9ed to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age, I_4bits of studious application. or a life of pleasure, have fallen into a despondent state of mind, and that distressing train of symptoms commonly denominated the NERVOUS. In such persons the mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, with out interferin g w i th domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable. imm Its ; P r a"arV object is to r e li eve th ose persons w h o , b y an onerate indulgenc e in their passions, have ruined their constitutions and brought on a perfect tabis dorsalis; or, in their way to the consummation of that deplorable malady, the affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray 'its approach, as the various affections of the nervous system, obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregu larity, weakness, total impotency, barrenness, &c. But the relief the CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM ge nerally administers is not confined to these alone : the l atitudinarian by birth, who has received from his parents the inheritance of a diseased and unprolific frame—the deli cate female, whom an immured and inactive life, together with an immoderate use of tea and other weak and watery aliments, has, without any fault of hers, brought on all the cala mitous symptoms of a consumptive habit, ' and are, with out timely assistance, sinki ng i nto a premature grave ! Such las these, under Divine Influence, the Cordial Balm of Sy lifm jacu will restore t o th e en j oyment of all the comforts of e. It is universally admired, being pleasant to the taste and gently astringes the fibres of the stomach, and giies that proper tensity which a good digestion requires.

DONALD WALKER'S Nnw WORK, DEFENSIVE EXERCISES, to eontain nearly One Hundred Engravings. WHENCE can it arise th a t th e o b v i ous security and ad vantages of Life Assurance should be so little regarded in Liverpool ?—that its inhabitants, as remarkable for pru dence as for enterprise, should, on this point alone, be so reckless ? Of the thousands who are toiling early and late lo provide for their families, many must drop off long before that object can be aecomplished ; yet bow few have Assu rances upon their lives, and for this the reason usually as signed is, " that they have not had time to think of Life Assurance." They have time for every commercial opera tion, however unimportant, but they have no time for one transaction of half an hour, requiring only an annual pay ment afterwards, to place their families beyond the reach of want after their death—an event rendered not less probable by the fatigue and anxieties of commercial life. Hardly a vessel leaves the Thames without the captain and passengers of ships belonging to London having Assured their Lives ; whilst from the Mersey thousands proceed annually to the States, to British America, the East and West Indies, and to the great nation now rising up in Australasia, largely in debted to Liverpool merchants, but without Assurance upon their Lives. The Directors of the Australasian, Colonial, and General Life Assurance and Annuity Company, have the pleasure to announce that they will be represented in Liverpool by Messrs. KIRKBY and WATSON, of No. 20, Water-street, who will afford every facility for the immedi ate despatch of Commercial and other Life Assurance, and through their Agency the peculiar advantages of this Com pany are respectfully tendered to the inhabitants of Liverpool and its vicinity.

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH, price Is. lid. per box.—This excellent Family Pill is a Medicine of long tried efficacy for correcting all Disorders of the Stomach and Bowels, the common symptoms of which are Costiveness, Flatulency, Spasms, Loss of Appetite, Sick Head-ach e , Giddiness, Sense of Fulness after meal s , Di zz i ness of the Eyes, Drowsiness and Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, Indigestion producing a Torpid State of the Liver, and a consequent Inactivity of the Bowels, causing a disorganization of every function of the frame, will, in this most excellent preparation, by a little perseverance, be effectually removed. Two or three doses will convince the afflicted of its salutary effects. The Stomach will speedily regain its strength; a healthy action of the Liver, Bowels, and Kidneys will rapidly take place ; and instead of listlessness, heat, pain, and jaun diced appearance, strength, activity, and renewed health, will be the quick result of taking this Medicine according to the directions accompanying each box. These Pills are particularly efficaciou s for Stomach Coughs, Colds, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and all Obstructions of the Urinary Passages ; and if taken after too free an indulg ence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose. Persons of FULL HABIT, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be with out them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. Fort FEMALES, these Pills are most truly excellent, re moving all obstructions; the distressing Head-ache so very prevalent with the sex ; Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To MOTHERS, they are confidently recommended as the best medicine that can be taken during pregnancy : and for children of all ages they are unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, easy Aperient, they unite the recom mendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect, and require no restraint of diet or confinement during their use. By regulating the dose according to the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case, in either sex, that can be required ; and for ELDERLY PEOPLE they will be found to be the most comfortable Medicine hitherto prepared.

W. CURRIE, Esq., seconded by RICHARD SHEIL, Esq., II was Resolved, That this Meeting has learned with great satisfhcti on , t h at a Bill for introd ucing Municipal Reform into Ireland has passed the Commons' House of Parliament. On the motion of JAMES BRANCKER, Esq., seconded by JAMES MULLENEUX, Esq., It was Resolved, That, in this country, one of the important and salutary consequences of Parliamentary Reform, was the thorough reformation of Local Corporations : both these great measures being founded on the principle of self-government ; the first result of growing intelligence and civilization being the right claimed by large communities to freely elect representatives to watch over their local and national interests. On the motion of JOHN RossoN, Esq., seconded by VINCENT HIGGINS, Esq., It was Resolved, That the same great law which is applicable to England applies equally to Ireland. That while corruptions and abuses have been found to prevail in both countries in self elected irresponsible Corporations, the same beneficial con sequences may be expected in both countries to flow from local and responsible governments fairly representing the intelligence, moral worth, and property of their respective constituencies. On the motion of THOMAS BOLTON, Esq., seconded by RICHARD SHEIL, Esq., It was Resolved, That this great act of equal justice would be productive of the most salutary effects. By such act of confidence on the part of the Legislature in the discretion and loyalty of large constituencies, the feeling of self-respect in these bodies would be created, a worthy emulation would be kindled, irri tation would be allayed, better hopes inspired, and peace and tranquility be promoted throughout the Sister Kingdom. On the motion of HUGH HonNuy, Esq., seconded by THOMAS BAINES, Esq., It was Resolved, That Ireland, as an integral part of the British Dominions, is fairly entitled to participate in the free institutions of this Country; that this meeting therefore relies on the justice of the Imperial Parliament to bestow upon Ireland the benefit of free and popular Municipalities, under stich regulations and provisions as may best promote the great objects intend ed thereby to be secured.

JAMES GIBBS, Deputy-Chairman raILK PUNCH ! PHIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has, for nearly a 1. century, been duly appreciated at CHICHESTER 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 virants 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 transeendant merit.

Persons doubting of the efficacy of this Medicine, may take a dose in the Proprietor's shop before they purchase. The Proprietor earnestly recommends a trial of these Drops to persons afflicted with the above com plaints, but he does not introduce them as being an infallible cure, (as many do,) but is warranted in asserting their efficacy from the extensive relief afforded in numerous cases of the above description. Constitutional Coughs of three, four, and more years standing, have been cured in the - course of it week by the use of these Drops. In the Hooping and Chin Coughs it will be found equally valuable; it will at all times relieve the most violent Consumptive Cough.—ln Bottles Is. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., and 10s. Gd. each.

And filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Marmoratum. MoN s. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment permanently at No. 38, SEF:L-STREET, eight doors from Berry -street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums, there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so af7ected, Mons.

MOST DARING AND DETERMINED ATTEMPT AT ByR GLARY.—On Monday morning last, between the hours of two and three o'clock, the family of Mr. Robert Wilson, tai lor, of Bretherton, were thrown into a state of gre a t a l arm, in consequence of h ea ring various noises about the house. They of course immediately got up, when, to their conster nation, they saw three or four men attempting to bre a k open the front door of the house, which, fortunately, was well se cured with two iron bolts and a luck. R obert Wilson, who is an elderly man, immediately went down stairs, an d go i ng to the door, enquired vyho are yo u ," " What do y ou want, " to which the men outside made no reply, but renewed their exertions to effect an entrance with red ou bl e d f orce. Ohl Robert, hoping to intimidate the i nva d ers, loudly cried out .for a pistol, holding the door with his feet, and supporting himself, by leaning with all hi s m i g h t, against the jamb, or wooden spar, opposite to the door. The villains, however, succeeded in breaking the lock ; and the upper staple of one of the bolts was likewi se b ro k en to pieces. The lower bolt, which remained fast, was also at o ne ti me part i ally drawn, but after a bold and fearless attempt, Robert contrived to replace it again in the staple. The house is detached, and the inmates shouted f or t h e ass i stance of their neighbours, crying out "Thieves," " Murder," but unfortunately their cries of distress proved ineffectual, and the ruffians threatened them with savage oaths what they would do, as soon as they got into the house. They then threw a quantity of stones and brickbats at them through the room window, and broke several squares of glass. The door being almost prized open, one of the fellows, as he was in the act of thrusting his arm between the jamb and the door, received a tremendous blow with the poker, which old Robert had in his hand to defend himself, in case they succeeded in forcing it open. While some of the inmates were calling out for help, and others quaking for fear, expecting, no doubt, immediate destruction, Mrs. Smith, with great presence of mind, lighted a number of candles, and placed them in all the windows of the house, in order, if possible, to frighten them away. This circum stance, together with the shrieks of the rest of the inmates, had the desired effect; and the ruffians having made several desperate attempts, for the space of two hours, to realize the object of their wishes, at length became alarmed, and de camped, leaving behind them several weapons of destruction, including a coulter, a four-grained fork, and a hay-spade. These instruments they took from a neighbouring farm, and they have since been claimed by the right owner. The coulter and the spade are also considerably bent, in conse quence of having been used as levers against the post and the door. No tidings of the scoundrels have yet transpired ; but it is to be hoped that some clue to their apprehension will speedily be obtained. It is gratifying to state, that their ex pectations were signally frustrated : but had the door been made of any other wood thon oak, the consequence would, in all probabilit y , h ave been very serious to Mr. .NV ilson and his family. The inmat es i n t h e h ouse were, constdering , energy, the cii cumstances, exceedi ng ly stout -h earte d ; and ever 3 both of Mi n d an d b o d y, on the part of old Robert, was called into action ; and to his p ra i s e be it spoken, that, although infirm,: and far ad v an ce d in years, be cinducterl himself on this most tryi ng an d perilous occasion, with surprising foititude.—Praton Chronicle.

PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS. PRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, Liverpool, begs ei • particularly to call the attention of his Friends and the Public to his improved Preparation of the very justly cele brated article SEIDLITZ POWDERS, to form the SEID LITZ WATERS, which approach nearer than anything yet discovered to the Chalybeate Waters of Germany. 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 are put up in a very eligible form for 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 that the 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. Gd. each. FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro perties of Sarsaparilla Root. To persons, therefore, who, from various causes, 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, &c., 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.
