MILK PUNCH ROYAL MANUFACTURER OF MILK PUNCH TO HER MAJESTY. THIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has, for nearly a 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 goo taste, and marked their approbation of this GREAT DISCOVER , 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 hen vivanis 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 win find it an THE excellent GENTLEß SEX addenda to the Dinner Table, may not disdain to sip, the more so as ROYALTY has acknowledged its transcendant merit. It has been intimatedA thSIaCKNESS, it will prevent SE 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 FAna 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 f;C:cnn the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate, and poetesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence, innprmie,s• by age. LE GRAND GOURMAND will find it .x most social companion to his Calepash and Calepee, anti the temperate _man, while he masticates his biscuit over a glass of it, will be constrained to eulogise this incomparable Liqueur. " Come 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 t o th e palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

PRIESTLEY, CHEMIST, Lord-street, Liverpool, begs 0 • 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, hare 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 Cafes, 10s. each. The latter are put up in a very eligible for for ex portation, or to use at sea, and will keep any lengtii of time in all climates. Prepared and sold only by JOH PRIEST LEY, No. 52, Lord-street. where also may be ad Sei dlitz Powders in Packets. IMPROVED SODA POWDE . It has been observed that the Soda Water when kept in jars, parts with its carbonic gas ; that carri eofit to a dis tance has been attended with risk and co derable expense ; and that, from these inconveniences, its se has been con fined chiefly to large cities and their en rons. 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 ls. 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 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 miurioudto the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation. 16 feet 8 inches, • C`l 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.

MALLA , No. 10, Lud gate -hill, London. A NEW DISCOVERY IN ARTIFI L TEETH, FIXED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR IGATURES. SCURVY IN THE GUMS EFFECTUAL REMOVED. LOOSE TEETH FASTENED. And Filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Succedaneum. Mons. JAMES M. and S. MALLAN, Surgeon Dentists, respectfully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liverpool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Esta blishment, permanently, at No. 23, RODNEY-STREET, opposite Leece-street, where Mons. Malian may he consulted OD MONDAYS, TUESDAYS, and WEDNESDAYS, in every week throughout the year. They continue to fill up the cavities of Decayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain , heat , or pr es s ur e ; it is placed into the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, preventing and curing the Toothe-ache, arresting all further progress of decay, and rendrring 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 the 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 'mown that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and it is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay.. ,To those so affected, Mons. JAMES M. and S. M ALLAN htive to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive com plaint by a single application, with the slightest pain. Mons. MALLAN begs to introduce to the notice of his Patients and the Public, an entire new description of IN CORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, and with con fidence guarantee them to answer , every purpose of Mastics. tion and Articulation, and defy detection from the closest observer. They never change colour or break, as those 1101 , / used, are fixed without wires or ligatures, and have no un pleasant odour or unnatural gloss. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will give support and preserve. Teeth that are loose, at fixed and moderate Charges. Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectuall) remedied. Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled to fit the mouth, and restored equal in beauty and durability to their original state. Attendance from Nine till Six. *** For the convenience of country patients, Messrs. JAMES M. & S. M ALLAN are enabled to fix a partial or complete set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or inconvenience. No. 23, Rodney-street, opposite Leece-street.

Peck and Price, who were appointed at a meeting of the free coloured people of Baltimore, held on the 25th November, 1839, for the pur pose of appointing delegates to visit British Guiana and Trinidad, &c. to ascertain the advantages to be derived by coloured people emigrating to those places. Baltimore, 1840. The persons named as delegates, N. P. and T. S. P., are two of the most industrious, intelligent, and respectable of our coloured population. N. Brice, chief judge Baltimore city court. W. D. S. Worthington appointed chief judge Balt. do. do. N. S. •Keath, district judge United States court. S. C. Leakin, mayor of the city of Baltim o re. . . Agriculturists are in great demand. Every plantation we were upon, which were many, wanted from 40 to 50 hands to carry on cultivation. .Field labour is similar to the work in corn-fields, and is done by task, of so many feet or yards. The price for each task is 331. cents, which upon most estates can be done in four or five hours. We saw a young woman at an estate called Success, on the island of Leguan, finish her second task by 12 o'clock, and did not appear at all fatigued. In answer to a question put to her by us she said, she could do three tasks any day, and if she felt inclined after dinner, could do another task. We left her to visit several other estates, and returned about half-past five o'clock in the afternoon, and learned from her own lips that she had done her third task about half an hour; besides, each family has a very comfortable cottage to be in, containing generally two rooms on the first floor, and one above, with as much ground attached as they can cultivate in vegetables ; and the doctor's bill for attending all the estates, paid by the proprietor. On many estates are very fine schools, and would be many more could persons be found competent to the undertaking. There are at present a great many churches in any direction, and would be many more, should it Le reqUired, as every profes sion is tolerated and encouraged. In Guiana my estate has the aspect of a manufacturing village : all the works are propelled by steam-engines, and the mill fed by the same power. The workman's labour is lightened by it in many ways. In Trinidad the manual labour is greater. The labourers' cottages in general are much more spacious and comfortable in British Guiana than thoSe now in use in Trinidad. As there appears a desire among many persons to know whether we intend to settle in either of these places, and which of the two are preferred; we thought it advisable to get through with the report to the public meeting, before we declare our intentions. We now declare our preference for Guiana. NATHANIEL PECK. THOMAS S. PRICE. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, June 17.—Our market con tinues extremely animated, every thing being eagerly taken off the market as soon as offered, at gradually improving prices. THE ATMOSPHERIC RAILWAY CARRIAGES.—It iS up wards of a year and a-half since we described the experi ments made by Mr. Clegg, in the Borough, on the mode of propelling carriages by means of exhausting a pipe or tube with which the carriages were connected, and then admitting the atmospheric air, and, as it were, forcing the carriages or train along, and thus superseding the necessity of gas or any other power for the conveyance of a train along a rail or tram-road. These experiments were very successful ; indeed so successful, that few persons had any doubt about the ulti mate success of the principle of the invention. On Thursday the experiments were exhibited on a large scale, on a railroad which connects, or is intended to connect, the line of the Birmingham, the Bristol, and the Thames Junction lines, commencing within a short distance of Shepherd's-bush, and running in a westerly direction for about three quarters of a mile. The carriage put in motion, with the persons on it, did not weigh much less than 12 tons, but it travelled with great ease at the rate of 25 miles an hour. The exhausted pipe or tube laid down, whichiwas not the propelling agent, but the means of its developement, was about nine inches in diameter. The engine by which it was exhausted—namely, a pump, worked by steam—rendered it fit for the operations required in about two minutes and a half, and front the index, that is quicksilver employed at the termini, it was ascertained that the operation was performed simultaneously, at both ends of the line. There was no noise, no smoke, and, what is better, no danger of explosion, or of a power which could not be governed. In short, the experiment was as successful as its most warm well-wishers could expect. and showed that the agency of steam is not a sine qua" non on a railroad. Without going into a minute history of railroads, it may be as well to say, that this power may be applied to any railroad at a saving of 70 per cent., and that it is of sufficient force to preclude the necessity of tunnelli ng . It i s a ppli ca ble to al mos t any gradients. The experiments were attended by a great num ber of the nobility, and by many scientific men. The Arch bishop of Canterbury, Lords Charleville, Radstock, and Prudhoe, the Marquis of Doure, Lord Howick, and Lord Stuart de Rothesay, &c., were on the ground, and expressed their satisfaction at the result of the experiments.—Times. 4 (From the London Standard of Monday.) PisroLs.---It has been ascertained that the pistols used by the prisoner were purchased at the shop of Mr. Hayes, in Farringdon -street, by a young man about a fortnight since, for which he paid £2. This discovery is msidered by the police very important, as if it should turn out that the pistols were purchased by some other person, and not the prisoner, then it proves that more than one person was aware of the atrocious act, and on the other hand if it was the pri soner who made the purchase, an inquiry then suggests itself (he being out of employ,) from what fund he obtained the money. Mr. Hayes and his assistant are to accompany Inspector Pearce to Newgate this afternoon, for the purpose of seeing the prisoner : the assistant says he has no doubt whatever of being able to identify the young man who bought the pistols it' he can see him, as on that occasion he was very particular about the make and quality of them. After examining theca some time he asked how far they would carry a ball, and was told 20 or 30 yards. He then said that would do, and agreed to buy them. He also on the same occasion bought a pow der flask, for which he paid 2s, but we do not know that this has been found. The person who bought the pistols did not ask or say anything about bullets. Mr. Hayes and his assis tant expect to be summoned to give evidence before the Privy Council to-morrow. (From the Morning Herald _of Tuesday.) The greatest possible interest continues to ascertain every particular relating to the murderous attempt upon her Ma jesty and Prince Albert. The search for the bullets is still going on, but nothing has been discovered. The police con tinue their exertions with unremitting energy, and it is said some important ev id ence w ill b e l a id b e f ore t h e P r i vy C ounc il at the next examination of Oxford, which, we understand, is appointed for 11 o'clock to-day, at the Home-office. In structions are given to the police and witnesses not to state publicly anything whica may come to their knowledge, as it is considered necessary for the purposes of justice that the greatest possible secrecy should he maintained. It has been ascertained where the pistols used by the pri soner were purchased. The accounts in the papers yesterday on this point were incorrect. The following are the facts : The pistols now in the hands of the police, and which were taken from the prisoner on his apprehension, were purchased at the shop of Mr. Hayes, in Farringdon-street, by a young man, about a fortnight since, for which he paid £2. About a month since Mr. Hayes received two brace of pistols from Birmingham. One brace were not inclosed in bags. These he (Mr. Hayes) sent to a shop which he has in Blackfriars road, from Which they were subsequently stolen, and have never since been heard of. The otto+• brace were sold at the shop in Farringdon-street, by his-Aista n t, to a young man, -- about a foctaighc since, fur TherISNPRo doubt at to the a identity the /+ito-u;-bi qin ee - th e `nrivnt nark of A" Hayes, which he m a d e himself with a carver. e These pistols also were in bags at the tim e th e y were so ld, an d two b a gs have been found at the prisOneeilodgings, which Mr. Hayes can positively swear are the same. The pistols stolen from the shop in Blackfriars-road were not in bags. It is Intended on the trial to confine the examination to as feW witnesses as possible, merely proving the facts of the case, without any unnecessary delays in attaining the ends of justice. (LATEST PARTICULARS.) We are now enabled to lay before our readers further and more accurate details relative to the recent attempt of Oxford. The Hon. Mr. Fox Maule, one of the under-secretaries of state, called at Newgate on Saturday, and saw the pri soner; but be failed to elicit anything of importance from him. Mr. Alderman Harmer next put sonic questions to Oxford, but with no better success. In the course of the same day Sir Peter Laurie and Sir George Carroll, the visiting aldermen for the present month, in the presence of Mr. Cope, the governor of the prison, held some conversation with Oxford, which may hereafter be found to be of some importance. Sir Peter Laurie inquired of the prisoner if he placed a ball in each of the pistols, and upon mention being made of loadiir , them with ball, the prisoner laughed derisively, and denied that any ball was in them. The aldermen reminded the prisoner that Mr. Fox Manic had a bullet in his posses sion, upon which Oxford burst into a hearty laugh. Sir Peter states that the prisoner has positively refused to be provided with professional assistance, and appears to tri umph in the notoriety h e h as gained. Oxford carefully avoids answering any questions that are put to him relative to his having bad any associates in the crime, and the only time when he has let fall a single observation on the subject, was upon the occasion of his first interview with his mother, when he exclaimed, " There are others in it." On Saturday at noon, his mother had a second intg's iew with the prisoner, but nothing material transpired. &fore quitting the prison she informed the visiting alderman that she married Oxford's father in consequence of his having threatened to murder her and cut his own throat, if she did not do so. She added, that she preferred adopting any course rather than be sacrificed, but complained of his ill-treatment after marriage, and of his having fractured the back part of her skull. She offered to show Sir Peter the scar that was visible upon her head where the injury was inflicted ; hut he declined to see it, being of opinion (to use his own words) that the mother is decidedly mad, and that the injury to her head is a mere delusion. The worthy alderman likewise ex presses his unqualified belief that Oxford's mind is diseased, and that he discharged the pistols (being loaded only with gunpowder) in order to obtain an unenviable distinction from other boys. The prisoner, the reporter heard from authority, is at times exceedingly fidgetty, and appeared desirous to make some disclosure, but in a few minutes he again resumes his levity and indifference. One of the civic authorities expresses his confidence that before any length of time has elapsed Oxford will unburthen his mind to him. In the course of yesterday the police commissioners had several interviews with Lord Normanby and the Under Secretary of State at the home office, and there is little doubt, from the circumstances subjoined, that the prisoner will be brought up for re-examination to-day before the Privy Coun cil, which has been summoned to assemble at two o'clock at tLe home-office. The police have succeeded in tracing the prisoner from his house in West-place, which he left at three o'clock on the afternoon of the day he attempted the assassination, to a coffee-shop be was in the habit of using in the Westminster road, and which is kept by a person named Lovett. It ap pears Oxford had some refreshment, which he did not pay for, and remained in Lovett's until above half-past three o'clock, and shortly before four o'clock he was observed walking in the park. When he left Lovett's it is stated he was alone. The statement of the girl Sarah Brown that she saw the prisoner load the pistols previous to the approach of the royal carriage, turns out, upon investigation, to be untrue, the prisoner having been observed to load them before he left home. Althogh the prisoner now denies having put balls into the pistols, the reporter was informed he admitted having done so at the station-house before the Privy Council. THE FORM OF PRAYER AND THANKSGIVING FOR THE PRESERVATION OF THE QUEEN ROM THE ATROCIOUS AND TREASONABLE ATTEMPT UPON HER LIFE. In pursuance of the order in council held at Buckingham Palace on the 15th of June, directing the Archbishop of Canterbury to prepare a form of prayer and thanksgiving for the preservation of the Queen from the atrocious and treason able attempt against her sacred person, to be used at morning and evening service after the general thanksgiving, in all churches and chapels throughout England and Wales, on Sunday. the 21st of June, the following was yesterday for warded to the churchwardens of the various parishes included in the above order in council : Ea In' And( or Ed.

" Almighty and Everlasting — God, Creator and Governor of the world, who by Thy gracious Providence has oftentimes preserved Thy chosen servants the Sovereigns whom Thou hast set over us from the malice of wicked men, we offer unto thee all praise and thanksgiving for Thy late mercy vouchsafed to us in frustrating the traiterous attempt on the life of our Sover6ign Lady Queen Victoria. " Continue, we beseech Thee, Thy watchful care overher. Be Thou her shield and defence against all the devices of secret treason and the assaults of open violence. Let the light of Thy countenance shine upon her and her Royal consort, and bless them with all happiness. Direct and prosper her counsels ; and so guide and support her by Thy holy spirit, that putting her whole confidence in Thee, she may faithfully rule Thy people committed to her charge to their good and to the glory of Thy holy name. " And to us, and all her subjects, () Lord, impart such a measure of Thy grace, that, under a deep and lasting sense of the mercy at this time vouchsafed to us, we may always show forth our thankfulness unto Thee by dutiful loyalty to our Sovereign and constant obedience to thy command ments. " Give ear, we beseech Thee, 0 merciful Father, to these our supplications and prayers, which we humbly offer before Thee in the name and through the mediation of Jesus Christ, our only Saviour and Redeemer. Amen." Then shall follow the prayer for unity : " 0 God, the Father of of our Lord Jesus Christ, our only Saviour, the Prince of Peace, give us grace seriously to lay to heart the great danger we are in by our unhappy divisions. Take away all hatred and prejudice, and whatsoever else may hinder us from Godly union and concord; that as there is but one body, and one spirit, and one hope of our calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of us all, [so we may henceforth be all of one heart, and of one soul, united in one holy bond of truth and peace, of faith and charity, and may with one mind and one mouth glorify Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.-TUESDAY. THE QUEEN V. THE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. Lord Denman delivered judgment in this case. It was an application for a mandamus commanding the defendants to purchase lands and to complete the railway. One of the ob jections taken was, that this court had not power to interfere by mandamus. The court was of opinion that it had full po vyer to interfere, but it would not exercise a summary jurisdiction unless good cause was shown for its interference. Such was not the case in the present instance. The directors might have refused, for anything that appeared to the contrary, to pur chase the lands, on account of the very high prices demanded for them, or of a temporary want of funds. That was not a sufficient ground, and the rule must therefore be discharged -Rule discharged. Cork contains a population of 30,000 Protestants. THE AMERICAN HUNTERS' ASSOCIATION.—The mys terious compact known by the name of the Hunter's Asso ciation, was organised for the express purpose of invading Canada, and the following details•will show the unexpected strength of the confederacy :—Affirmations were made on oath by various parties, that the whole number of American citizens enrolled in this unholy league amounted to no less than 200,000, of whom 25,000 or 30,000 effective men, in cluding a corpse of 600 Kentucky riflemen, and a body of Indians, had pledged themselves to march upon the province, whensoever required. But judging by results, allowance must be made for error or exaggerations in this statement , since in no case of actual invasion did the ascertained number of individuals exceed 400 or 500 men ; though, on the other hand, it must be considered that these were sent forward as a sort of advanced guard, to try what number of Canadians would be disposed to join them when landed in that province, and that thousands were in readiness on the opposite shore, to follow them across the river, should success attend their first efforts. By the majority of those concerned in it, there can be no doubt that this scheme of wholesale invasion was held to be infallible ; while large sums have been actually embarked in it as a profitable investment, the result was watched with intense anxiety, such as Americans intent on gain are capable of feeling. From facts which afterwards transpired, so sanguine would many seem to have been of a favourable issue to the enterprise, that the father of one man who had enlisted as a recruit, but was afterwards prevented, by illness or some other cause, from marching when required, actually took his place rather than his son should foreg o the advantages anticipate to accrue to him from the expedition. That much delusion was practised on the credulous and inex perienced; that many- plunged te'te biasse'e into the scheme without the least reflection, or misled by a false enthusiasm ; and that the confederates in the States and the disaffected in Canada were unconsciously deceiving one another, by crro.. neous estimates and misplaced relia nces, as the time proof of action approached, cannot very well be doubted, even if not ca be . : e n ._p afforded r e dthat, htoreseea suchucparnseixntecnat,,,ada. was in thereality ~ ",~,
