This most efficient and agreeable preparation of that well known andvaluable alterative, JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA, is pre pared by a peculiar and scientific method, by which the whole of the aromatic and volatile parts are preserved; and the experience of many years has fully established the reputation of this Medi cine, as containing more of the virtues of the root than any other preparation. Its beneficial effects have been particularly striking in the following complaints :—Nocturnal Pains in the Limbs, Scrofulous Enlargement of the Glands, Cutaneous Affec tions, Chronic Rheumatism, &c. In freeing the system after a course of Mercury its beneficial - effects are very powerful.

For the speedy cure of the hooping cough, they are no less efficacious.

The COFFEE and CHICORY QUESTION, and the present Chancellor of the Exchequer.* * * ROYAL BANK BUILDINGS. — Those Families who favour us with their orders not only purchase from us fine qualities of Coffee, but are furnished with the finest descriptions imported into Great Britain, and those at prices which are in strict accordance with our leading maxim—that of charging a small profit on the original cost of import, taking care to make QUALITY the PRIMARY CONSIDERATION. When QUALITY is thus prominently kept in view, and the scale of PRICES is fixed so as to yield an adequate profit, the respective interests of the Family Pio chaser and the Dealer are mutually adjusted. lligh prices no longerafrord any guarantee to secure the best quality. The indispensable requisites are—a thorough know ledge, the result of practical experience; constant care in the examination of samples; an acquaintance with the best mar kets; and the exercise of a sound judgment in making early selections from arrivals.' Respecting the admixture of Chicory with Coffee, we submit the following quotation from a liberal daily paper, as furnishing additional proof—if such were necessary—of the scandalous dishonesty which has been too long practised upon Families:— "In the course of the proceedings in the Bank rupt Court, on Friday, in the case of and Co. some curious statements were elicited in the examination of the bankrupt, Mr. —, in reference to the adulteration of coffee with chi cory. The bankrupts had been very large manu facturers of the so-called coffee,' and attributed their stoppage to the Treasury order prohibiting adulteration.

' SECOND TRIAL AT LAW FOR PIRACY OF MILNER'S PATENT. THE Defendant, JOHN GERMAN HARRISON, having persevered in the sale of Safes constructed on the princi ple of Milner 's Patent, in defiance of the verdict found against him in June, 1851, in the Court of Queen's Bench, and an In junction afterwards awarded against him by the Court of Chancery (he pretending that the Safes sold by him since the first trial were not infringements, but made wider a patent granted to Messrs. Sann), a second action was hrought.on the suggestion of Vice-Chancellor Sir George Turner, to try' whether such safes were or were notyringements on Miluer's Patent. This action was tried on tha.2sth June last, before Lord Campbell and a special jury.,-The following extracts from the learned Judge's address to,the juiy in summing up will show distinctly the questions submitted to the jury : Lord Campbell.—" I own it seems to me that Mr. Harrison does not appear before you in very advantageous colours from these proceedings. He bad been in the service of Messrs. Milner, and while in their service he takes another shop, and there he begins and sells fire-proof boxes which were agreed by a jury sitting where you now are to be substantially the same as those of Milner, the Patentee, and that record has been given in evidence: you are not bound by it, but you may at tend to it; and I must own that I do not see any reason to believe that the jury who sat on the trial of that cause were in any respect mistaken in point of fact, and I do not discover that there is any real difference between this case and that ; you will attend to all the evidence, and form your own conclu sion from the evidence that has been given. " You are first called upon to say whether this invention of Messrs. Milner is new. As to wheter it is useful, it seems to me to be allowed on all hands, it seems a most marvellous pre servative against fire; for the water remains permanently held in artificial vessels or in natural vessels, and the very calamity brings the cure, for the heat causes the water to ex pand, and then it is turned into steam, and the steam moistens the substance which is to be preserved, and so it is an effectual guard against fire. If you think this . was new, then the only remaining ques tion is with' regard to the infringement. Now the infringement seems to rest upon substantially the same evidence as the infringement on the former trial, when the action was brought against Mr. Harrison._ “ Now you find with respect to Tann's Patent, whatever Tann's invention might have been, that this patent which he manufactures, and which the defendant Harrison sells, and of which he calls himself the sole proprietor,' operates in the same way. It seems to me to act precisely the same way as i n Millier'Oatent, but upon that you will form your own judg ment. Then if it really has the same effect, and operates in the same manner, and upon the same principle, it will be for you to say whether you have any doubt it is an infraction of Milner's Patent. Those are the two questions for you to con sider.” • The Jury found a verdict for the Plaintiff, on both the ! issues, Mel establishing that the so-called Tann's Patent Safes are a mere piracy of Milner's invention. After the trial last year, it was pretended that the Safes then condemned were not made according to Tann': Patent—in other words. that the waler in them had not been boiled and set to cool before being used. The three Safes upon which this second action was brought were sworn to by Messrs. Tann as being made accord. inq to their Patent. The Public of Liverpool will remember the species of adver tisements by which this wretched case has been upheld. THEY have been as much imposed upon, with regard to the quality and price of the safes sold by these parties, as the advertisers have been wronged by their illegal use of Milner's (the only effective) Fire -resisting principle. The experience of Mr. Cafferata, as shown at this trial, (by a gentleman unknown to us before,) is only that of all the buyers of these things. Mr. C. was induced to give .el 5 for a safe. 22 x 16 x 16, on the assurance that it was " Thief-proof—three quarter inch thick solid wrought iron," &c., &c. Looking at it a day or two afterwards, at home, and on scraping the paint off it, he found it a MERE SHELL—a perfect delusion • and those who have intrusted their valuable property to such safeguards will do well to take the same course. For our own Safes, we have devoted our lives and our earn ings to the production of the best securities in the world against Fire, Robbery, or Violence, which the public has given to us the best means of making, and which we mean to sell at the lowest remunerating prices. Before buying a Safe, if parties will look into our works, and see the labour and attention paid to the manufacture in all its details, they will be less likely to be imposed upon by external appearances and fallacious representations in the very important matter of the selection of a Safe. " MILNER'S PHCENIX SAFE Wonxs," (late Wind sor Foundry,) Falkner-street, are said to be the finest work shops in Europe, of their class, certainly THE MOST EXTEN SIVE AND COMPLETE SAFE MANUFACTORY IN THE WORLD, employing more hands than all the Safe makers in Great Bri tain, and the Proprietors respectfully invite the people of Liverpool to inspect an establishment that has originated under our present patent, and grown up amongst them. The effect of these trials will be to confirm to Messrs. Milner and Son the exclusive use of materials or vessels in which, to use the Judge's words, " the water remains permanently held until the occurrence of the calamity (Fire) brings the cure." The trials by the Liverpool Polytechnic Society of Chubb's and Marr's Boxes filled with anhydrous (dry) materials, and of Milner's, filled according . to their evaporating principle, proving the manifest superiority of the latter, will be remembered, and such is now the defined relative position of Milner's only effec tive • File-taming principle, by the agency of water and its wow contrasted with all, others without,, that agency. 212 1 , deg. tc 3,000 deg.

FRISBY, DYKE, & Co., HAVE the great and satisfactory pleasure of announcing that, from the very kind and esteemed patronage which they have received in this large and important town, they have been induced to make EXTENSIVE ADDITIONS to their present PREAIISES, for the greater and more comfortable accommodation of their numerous and increasing customers, and that they have them completed and N 0 W OPENED, With a Large and Varied STOCK OF THE MOST FASHIONABLE AND USEFUL GOODS. Their Premises are extended direct throng ttrahle-Slreet, measuring from Lord-street about 165 feet long by 45 feet wide, with a gallery at the extreme end, m uring about 60 feet long by 20 feet wide,—forming one vast establishment, well lighted and ventilated throughout, and h which F., D., and Co. feel confident the public will be pleased. F., D., and Co. have much EN RGED and EXTENDED their various DEPARTMENTS, and with the undeviated deter mination that the Public shalrliave A MART WITH AN UNSURPASSED STOCK, And conducted upon the only one principle to insure confidence and success, viz., that all goods shall be sold at the lowest possible prices, without deviation, so that the most inexperienced purchaser will be certain to receive as good value in their establishment as the most competent judge; and from their experience and position in the markets, F., D., and Co. do not hesitate to say that they defy any fair competition to undersell them. FRISBY, DYKE, & CO. annex LISTS of their DEPARTMENTS, of which they most respectfully solicit a perusal.

OF Comic TO THE POUND. It was not, how ever, asked how much chicory was IN the chicory. Certainly we must give the government of Lord Derby what credit is due to them for suppressing by the Treasury order the continuance of the sale of this stuff at an enormous profit, for the retail price of the lowest was 16d. per lb." The startling revelations contained in the above brief para graph ought to open the eves of the public to the system of unmitigated cheating which was carried on with impunity be fore the former Treasury order was so judiciously rescinded by the late government. The Earl of Derby's Government deserved every credit for putting a stop to such fraudulent practices. They acted with wisdom, with candour, with fairness, and with humanity in the matter. They succeeded in effectually baffling the combination which sought to deprive the purchaser of this act of common justice. The apprehended difficulties in the operation of the late sys tem of selling coffee and chicory separately were all proved to be " mere moonshine," the crude fancies of a distempered imagination. Consumers were satisfied with the change. The honest dealers rejoiced at it ; the dishonest dealers alone de claimed against it. This improved system—improved because brought into unison with honesty—was being carried out most effectually, by which coffee was sold as coffee and chicory as chicory—yielding mu tual benefit to the consumer and to the proper-minded dealer. * N .* The present Chancellor of the Exchequer has deprived the public of this great advantage, both in regard to purity of quality and honesty of principle, by annulling the order of his predecessor—so that Coffee and Chicory may now be sold in a mixed state, the packages in which such mixture is sold being labelled. The ab surdity of this regulation must be evident to all, when we state that the SELLER of the mixture is not bound to say whether the vile compound which he offers to the public is composed of one-half or one-twentieth Coffee, or, indeed, whether there be any Coffee at all in it. It is evident, therefore, that the public have only one way of protecting themselves, and that is by insisting upon being sup plied with the genuine unmixed article of pure Coffee. Purchasers of Ground Coffee may rest assured of obtaining from this establishment supplies of PURE COFFEE. If any doubt should be entertained on this subject, science is at hand to test the truth of these professions, and the public press is ever accessible for the exposure of deception. ROBT.
