And the questions upon which the tw o countries are now at issue being of such difficult adjust ?itent as to render it almost impossible, and certainly impro bable, that any more teas can be obtained from China for a '.'erY considerable period, a great rise in all deserfptions of that article has taken place.

Hence tKe vast multi tildes who, having acquired the portion of a i nnfeebled con stitution, are doomed to the class of habittuainvalids. Their Minds anxious, unsteady, or sluggish, and their bodies We ak, the natural functions of life are discharged laboriously, with pain and difficulty. For this state of nervous derange nient, the celebrated AL BALM OF SYRIACUM w ill be found to CORD ha l ve peculiar efficacy, strengthening the lan guid system and shedding new hope on the mind. A perse verance in it s use has been the happy means of relieving luany thousand s , and of restoring a great number to the per tnatient enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in all disorders of the digestive organs, and is especially recom mended to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age, habits 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. lii such persons the mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, with out interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable. Its primary object is to relieve those persons who, by an iunnoderate indulgence 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 w i t h 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 imp otency, bar ; enness. &c. But the relief the CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM ge nerally administers is not confined to these alone : the latitudinarian 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 calamitous symptoms of a consumptive habit, and are, with out timely assistance, sinking into a premature grave ! Such as these, under Divine Influence, the - Cordial Balm of Sy riacum will restore to the enjoyment of all the comforts of life. It is universally admired, being pleasant to the taste and smell, gently astringes the fibres of the stomach, and gives that proper tensity which a good digestion requires. To the young it will affbrd lasting health, strength, and spirits, in place of las s it u d e an d de b ility, and to the aged and infirm it will assuredly furnish great relief and comfort, by gently and safely invigorating the system. It will not give i mmortality, but if it be in the power of medicine to gild the autumn of declining years, and calmly and serenely protract the close of life beyond its narrow span, this restorative is capable of effecting this grand desideratum. zlThe Cordial is highly esteemed in the East and West In ei;si:r nourishin g and in v i gora ti ng th e nervous system and Pas a general re s t ora ti ve on d e bili tate d constitutions, ~eiu g from bilious comp l a i n t s contracted. in hot c li mates . , st ations as .w e ll as t h e se d entary part of the' community should never be without the Cordial Balm of Syriacum, which removes diseases of the head, invigorates the mind, m proves the memory, and enlivens the imagination.

SIGHT RESTORED 1 • NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE CURED GRIMSTONE'S CELEBRATED' EYE SNUFF, (Under the patronage of his late Majesty, her Royal High ness the Duchess of K en t, an d th e L or d s o f th e T reasury, ) TS universally recom men d e d by th e F acu lt y f or its efficacy in removing Disorders incident to the Eyes and Head. It will prevent DiSeases of a Scrofulous Nature affecting the Nerves of the Head. In cases of Nervous Head-ache it is completely efficacious, and gives a Natural Sweetness to the Breath. It may be taken as frequently as other Snuffs, with the most perfect safety and gratification to the consumer. Wash the eyes every morning with warm milk and water, to remove whatever secretion may have been produced during the night. Dr. ABERNETHY used it, and termed it. the Faculty's Friend and Nurse's Vade Mecum. Dr. ANDREWS also recommends its use as a preventive. (See his report when in Sunderland, published in the Times, Cheltenham Journal, and British Traveller, in Nov. 1831..), He says, " the herbaceous quality of the snuff had such effect on the stomach, as well as the nerves of the head, from the tenacious sympathy of the membrane of the nose with the nervous system, that Grimstone's Eye Snuff, when taken frequently, must prevent any contagion entering the system, and recommends its universal adoption.

The discovery of Mr. Grimstone is simple, gentle, and certain, and by its unfailing influence on the nervous fabric of the head, possesses the un questionable power of relieving, assisting, and prolonging the sight even to extreme old age.—Editor. Cheltenham Journal, 22d April, 1839.—" That most emi nent oculist ; . James Ware, Esq., F.R.S., was so strongly im pressed with the utility of snuff not made of tobacco, that in the third volume of the Medical Society's Works, page 334, this able oculist read several cases of gutta serena cured by the plentiful use of snuff. This snuff was made without the aid of tobacco, that being too great a narcotic to be used as a remedy: The anticipations of this gentlemen have been fully realised by Mr. William Grimstone, the Inventor of Eye Snuff, made from aromatic herbs, so judiciously ar ranged as in almost every case of disease touching the eye, ear, and the delicate organs of the head, to produce a, certain cure."—Editor.

This is my third testimony, and I shall be most happy to give it to you or to any respectable inquirer at my residence as under.--I remain, with gratitude, sir, your obedient humbl e servant, E. ROBSON. 19, Bell-street, Edgeware-road, Marylebone. 7, Skinner's Almshouses, Mile-end, Jan. 26,1839. Sir —I think it my i ncum b en t d uty to return you my grate ful acknowledgments of the efficacy of your invaluable " eye snuff." You must understand, sir, that I have for the last four or five years suffered much with giddiness in my head and dimness of sight. I naturally concluded (being in my 69th year) that it was the decay of nature, and was advised by a friend, who said much in its favor, and the extraordinary virtues of your celebrated invention, I was induced to give it a trial, and I am happy to say that the great and signal benefit I have derived from the use of four 2s 4d canisters has ena bled me to lay aside my spectacles, has given me great relief in my head, and I feel so thoroughly convinced of its benign virtues, that my gratitude shall ever be evinced in recom mending it to all I may hereafter meet suffering with those afflictions.--I am, sir, your most obliged and grateful servant, To W. Grimstone, Esq. ANN COLE. To W. Grimstone, Esq. inventor of Eye Snuff, 39, Broad street. Whiteh, Mch , 838. Mr. Grimstone,—Sir, I think it but all justice that B I I should offer my acknowledgments to you for the great benefit I have derived from the use of your most exquisite fragrant com pound, composed of herbs, called Eye Snuff; its action on the membrane of the nose, causing the lachrymal glands to discharge in a manner truly surprising, and by that means to cleanse the cornea, that my eyes became healthy, strong, and performed their wonted duties in a manner that 1 have not known the blessing of for six years. The renowned Dr. Guthrie recommended me to try your eye snuff prior to my undergoing an operation. Many thanks to him for his sug gestion, thanks t o your invention, that operation will not be necessary. Sir, you have my permission to make this known in any manner you think best.

EXTRAORDINARY MONOMANIA.—A Lyons paper states that a man, rather advanced in life, was arrested, a few days ago, in that city, on a charge of mendicity. 1-le had made a considerable collection, aided by certificates from various ecclesiastics. On his being searched, his pocket-book was found to contain right bank-notes of 1000 f each, and in his pockets was a considerable sum in specie. He was questioned how, with so much wealth, he could venture to degrade him self by begging, and replied, that he had a great many grand children, to whom he wished to leave a ha m/Some indepen dence. He was, in fact, a lunatic, with the monomania of mendicity, and has been ascertained to be worth 150,000 f. He has two sons establishe d i n a thriving manufactory near Rouen, and two daughters, both advantageously married. His malady came upon him some years ago and his sons took the precaution of writing to th e chief ; magistrates of the county, warning them ofit b , is and requesting that he might T be sent back to his family. has been complied with by the Procureur du Roi of Lyons. RUFFS. — Queen Elizabeth and her ladies are r eprese n t e d in all pictures as whalebone,casedin with wai s t s very l o ng, small and made excessivelyby tight lacing; with enormous stiff ruffs round their throats, and small cap s of point-lace, which now go by th e name of Queen Elizabeth's cousin, Mary Queen of Scots. The ruff was sometimes kept upright by a wire frame ; and was sometimes so stiffly starched as to stand up by itself. Starch of various kinds came into fashion ; and, in the next reign, a certain Mrs. Turner brought over from abroad th e met h od of making yellow starch, which was so much admired, that every fashionable lady appeared in a yel low ruff done up with Mrs. Turner's starch. Mrs. Turner was at length hanged for murder. She appeared on the scaf fold in a handsome yellow ruff. Every lady threw away hers ; and not a yellow ruff was ever seen more. The starching of ruffs became so important a business, that a Dutch woman, named Van der Plasse, came to London to carry on and t eac h the art. The pre m i um she asked was five pounds —a great sum in those days—and an additional pound for the secret of preparing the starch.—Guide to Trade. ir;-- tiso ~_,.. 71 NI r-2 6 , ) - . ..iit in f, -4, , 1 4- ' , 41 \ 04,,,,,,. 4 q?::: - • i k 4: dlf ) 11 ___. 7 44 4 - .-.

LEAVING been appointed to take the Management of 1..1. various SoCieties connected with the Town of Liverpool, I feel it my duty.to lay their several claims plain] hd clearly before von. The very little support which even the ost favoured of /if them have received, considering the we and importan ce . of the Town, must be accounted for, imagine, from their objects and views not having been prominently brought be fore all classes of the Inhabitants. I may just state, in corroboration of this, that there is not one person, out of every hundred in Liverpool, who subscribes to any of the charities of the town, and not one in ten (whose names appear in the Directory) who subscribes to any of these charities, and of these it may fairly be presumed that scarcely the name of one appears who might not subscribe something. I will now give a brief summary of the objects of the va rious Societies, and shall he in attendance at my Office every day, from Ten to Four o'clock, where I shall be most happy to receive Donations or Subscriptions, large or small, to any or all of the following Associations. - JOSEPH CRISP, 38, Church-street. Liverpool Protestant Association. The object of this Association is,—First, to combine in one Christian brotherhood of self-defence all who truly love true re ligion and genuine liberty ; all who sincerely advocate the free circulation of the unmitilated and unadulterated Word of God ; all who assert and defend the right of private judgment all who venerate the inviolable sanctity of au oath; all real loyalists who maintain the unrivalled and universal supremacy of the King or Queen of England within these realms,. and renounce, abjure, and detest .any allegiance whatever to any foreign power or potentate, ecclesiastical or civil. This is the direct object of our Protestant Association. considered in ,its Script ura l f oun d at i on, an d i ts na ti ona l exercise. O ur second object is, to address . ourselves with' earnest affection to those of our fellow-'countrymen AZIro have the'misfortune still to labour under anti-scriptural and anti-national pre. judices ; who are denio the free circulation of the pure word of God, and the right of private judgment ; who are taught that oaths, under certain circumstances, may and ought to be violated ; and who are conmianded to yield their first and highest allegiance to a foreign ecclesiastic . al authority. The alarming spread of Popery, and the apathy of British Protestants, render the exertions of this Society of the most vital importance to the well-being of. the country, and the con tinuance of the invaluable blessings of civil & religious liberty. The mode of working is, by Petition, Public Meetings, and the circulation of Tracts;,&c. containing useful and important information. The Association being now in active opera tion, stands hiuch in need of increased funds. The rule of the Society constituting membership, is as follows :—" That all persons professing faith in the Holy Trinity, and being members of, on friendly to, the Established Church of Eng land and Scotl an d, w h o s h a ll subscribe five s hilli ng S annually, or give a donation of one guinea at any one time, shall be Members of this Association." Church Missionary Society. The objects of this Society are so well known that it is needless now to recapitulate them. I would, therefore, merely add, that the deficiency in the Society's funds of nearly £ll,OOO, and the strong and urgent calls from India for more Missionaries, render the claims of the Society more than ever pressing. Hibernian Society. The following facts are sufficient to show the importance of this Society in promoting the spiritual welfare of the Irish people : I.—There are in Ireland between two and three millions of Irish-speaking population, of whom two millions speak English as well ; and between five and six million's who speak English exclusively. 2.—Among the English-speaking population . who area large majority of the Irish nation, the London Hibernian So ciety is principally employed ; while, at the same time, for those who speak Irish only, it appoints Irish-speaking Scripture-readers, and forms, where it is required, Irish classes in its schools. 3.—lt is the principal Society to which the Irish Clergy, and Protestants in general, look for aid in establishing and maintaining their Scriptural Schools, and a far greater number of applications are received from them, in the present state of the funds, can be complied with. 4.—The number of Day-shools is 1157, containing 91,066 Scholars, of whom 34,067 are Children of Roman Ca tholic Parents. ' Will you not help Ireland by supporting such a So ciety as this ? Every security is given that your money will be prudently expended. No aid is afforded except where the Rules of the Society are abided by ; the prin cipal of which are, that the whole Scripture shall be read in the Schools, and portions committed to memory ; and that every School shall submit to a quarterly examination by a competent Inspector, whom the Society appoints. Its plan is so econimical that a child is educated for a year for little more than half-a-crown. Have you thus educated a child— or, if not, will you not do it ? Lancashire Lord's Day Society. The sanctities of the Divine appointment of the Lord's Day are continually invaded from new quarters, and among increasing multitudes, by the spirit of commerce, or of, worldly pleasure ; while the bulwarks of law, raised to defend them, are no more efficient for that object than the fortresses of antiquity to resist the alterations and improvements of modern warfare. On these accounts, there seemed an abk lute necessity that the friends of religion—who feel the favour of God to be the only safety and prosperity of a people— should , eattabine in acme. eft;ort. -(moire-pcacteviel-titan nook' proceed from individual exertions, however zealously made,) to stand in the breach against the wide and wasting flood of Sabbath violations, by the formation of a Society which should have for its object the amendment of public feeling and principle on this momentous subject—the diffusion of spiritual light upon the common mind—the assistance cf those who might wish for help in the high duty of keeping holy the Lord's Day—and especially of such legislators as might have Christian courage to lift up their voices in the deliberate assemblies of the nation against this great trans gression of the country. The Society's operations are carried on by the instrumen tality of placards, addresses, memorials, tracts, and petitions to Parliament. Church Pastoral Aid Society. This Society has especial claims upon the town of Liver pool, as it is the means of providing many additional curates and scripture readers, at an annual expense of £590, while the returns from the town for the past year were but £ll7. Surely Liverpool should, as an auxiliary, return more than she receives. The three following societies are especially devoted to the benefit of the seamen, and of those engaged in navigation on the canals, and therefore deserve the cordial support of all who are connected with the shipping and commerce of this port. The Mariner's Church Has now been established, under the patronage of the Bishop of the Diocese, for more than twelve years ; and, as far as its means will allow, is carrying out the objects of the institution with increasing benefit. But their exertions are limited, for want of further support, and owing to the necessary repairs of the church, which have been lately effected, the Society is still involved in debt. It is, therefore, confidently hoped that the public will assist in liquidating this, and by increased subscriptions enable the committee to enlarge their sphere of usefulness, by opening schools for the children of seamen and flatmen. The Naval and Military Bible Society, and Prayer Book and Homily Society. Are also in great need of assistance. Their object is to visit the shipping, by means of an agent who is employed for that purpose, and to supply the crews with prayer-books and homilies, and copies of the Scriptures, at reduced prices ; and, by a law of the Parent Naval and Military Bible Society, it is their wish to place on board every ship, flat, and steam boat, which leaves the port, a gratuitous supply of the Scrip tures, for the use of the crew (in proportion to the number of the men), where there are no means of selling them. I truA that the claims of these Societies will meet with a willing re sponse from all who are interested in the well-being of the seamen, as their funds are totally inadequate to carry out this desirable object without involving the parent society in a considerable loss. Trinitarian Bible Society. The peculiar object of the Trinitarian Bible Society is to publish faithful Protestant Versions of the Holy Scriptures, in the Portuguese, Spanish, and German languages, in the translation of which they are already engaged: and it will be the particular design of the Liverpool Auxiliary, in addition to the ordinary modes of circulating the Word of God, to em ploy an intelligent pious person, as an agent, to visit the abodes of the poor and ignorant, whom there is no other means of reaching, for the purpose of inducing them to take an inte rest in the Holy Scripture, and to become purchasers by weekly or monthly subscriptions. Liverpool Jewish Institution. The object of this Institution is to provide a temporary asylum for enquiring and converted Jews, and after eighteen months' experience, it has amply answered the benevolent intentions of the promoters. While the inquirer can obtain relief for a time, where he may be protected against the persecutions of his brethren, the mode of living is so plain as not to offer an i n d ucement to false or insincere professions. Much good is being done ; but the funds are so inadequate, that unless friends come forward more liberally with their means, the whole institu tion must be given up. Irish Sunday School Society, To promote the establishment and facilitate the conducting of Sunday schools in Ireland, by disseminating the most approved principles for the management of such schools, by supplying them with spelling-books, and copies of the Sacred Scriptures, or extracts, without note or comment, either gra tuitously or at redu ce d prices. Society for Promoting Chwistianity amongst the Jews. The name of this Society sufficiently explains its object. It is to lead the lost sheep of the house of Israel to that Sa viour whom they crucified. Christians are under a heavy obligation to the Jews, for it was by them that the Sacred Volume was preserved, and to them they stand indebted for Christianity itself. But they should feel interested on their behalf, not only for the blessings of the past, but on account of the glory that is in store for the world when the Jews shall be restored to their own land. There arc 50 Agents in connection with the Society, anti of these, eight church clergymen and twenty-three missionaries arc converted Jews. The Society has the strongest claims upon all Christians. The whole income of all the above Societies together, in the wealthy and important town of Liverpool, with a popula tion of above 200,000 persons, amounts to little more than £3OOO. Surely there are 20,000 persons in the town (a tenth of the population), who could afford ss. per annum to the whole of the above Societies together, and this would produce £5OOO. Or, are there not ten congre gations, from each of which 500 persons could be found willing to subscribe 2s. Gd. per annum to any of the above of which they approve ; and this alone would produce £5OOO. Let every one do something, be it ever so small, and the funds of all will shew a vast increase at the end of 1840, when, God willing, I hope again to lay the finan cial state of the various Societies before the public. In the mean time, I shall be most happy to give every information in my power respecting the operations and general eil cieney of all the above associations.

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 w e ll 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 T o o t h - ache and decay. To iose so affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint by a single application, without the slightest pain. Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,— at the following Paris charges:— A single Artificial Tooth £o 10 0 A complete Set 5 5 0 A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine gold plate An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal lic Teeth, highly finished, in the fit:A style, with fine gold sockets, usni.Ly charged 40 guineas ..

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 projaar of this delectable beverage had his abode; no doubt the ctirporation of that ancient borough evinced their good taste, anti marked their approbation of this GREAT DISCOVERY, by presenting to him the freedom of the n ; but with that the present generation have nothing to ; suffice it to say, that this ELIXIR is now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the bon vivants 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 aye. 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 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 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.
