FEMALE COMPLAINTS.

No female, young or old, should be without this celebrated me-
dicine. It corrects and regulates at all periods, acting in many
cases like a charm. It is also the best and safest medicine that
can be given to children of all ages, and for any complaint; con-
sequently no family should be without it.
SICK HEAD-ACHE, VOMITING, AND GENERAL DEBILITY.
EXTRAORDINARY CURE /

The daughter of James of Vronheulog, Llanfibangel,
six miles from Llanfyllin, Carmarthenshire, was afflicted for a long
time with general debility, suffering from sick headache, langour,
vomiting, sinking at the pit of the stomach, and the thousand and
one other evils of a generally deranged system. She was under
medical treatment for a long time, but unfortunately was not be-
nefited thereby—and every other remedy failed. The father then
put her through a course of Holloway's Pills, and after perse-
vering for a short time according to the directions, the bloom of
health again appeared upon her countenance, and she was com-
pletely cured, to the astonishment of all who knew her.

Holloway's Pills are the best remedy known in the world for the
following diseases:— .
Ague Dysentery Piles
Asthma Erysipelas Rheumatism [Evil.
Bilious Complaints Fevers of all kinds Scrofula, or King's
Blotches on the Skin Fits Sore Throats
Bowel Complaints Gout Stone and Gravel
Colics Head-ache Tic-Douloureux
Constipation of the Indigestion Tumours
Bowels Inflammation Ulcers
Consumption Jaundice Worms of all kinds
Debility Liver complaints Weakness, from
Dropsy Lumbago whatevercause, &c
Sold at the Establishments of Professor HOLLOWAY, 244,

York ; and by all respectable Druggists and Dealers in Medicines
throughout the civilised World, at the following prices—Is. lid.,

siderable saving by taking the larger sizes. N.B.—Directions

PROVISIONS.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. s.—Holders of American beef having given
way considerably in price for both old and new, buyers have come
forward more freely, and a fair extent of retail business has re-
sulted, but the dealers seem determined to buy only for present
wants, and to leave the holding of the stock again, as last year, to
the importer. A small.arrival of new pork has been taken for
London ; the quality of good Irish pork is steady, but not active,
at 90s to 92s Gd per barrel. New bacon sells in small quantities at
our quotations; as arrivals increase low prices will follow. Lard
sells slowly, without alteration in value; a large parcel offered by
auction to-day. There is no improvement in the demand for
cheese, but, at present reduced rates, this article ought to go freely
into consumption.
JAN. 7.—Although the butter market has not been very active,
yet the prospects improved during the past week, and a fair
amount of business was done at steady rates. Stocks are mode-
rate, and the arrivals small. The trade looks more healthy, but
no change can be made in quotations. The weather is extremely
mild for the season, which, no doubt, operates against the
demand. Waterford and Dungarvon, 106 s to 108 s; Kilkenny,
Carrick, Wexford, and Clonmel, 104 s to 1068 ; Sligo and Limerick,
98s to 102 s per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland from the
29th Dec., 1855, to the 4th Jan., 1856, both inclusive, 5,237 firkins,
162 kegs, 390 crocks, 211 boxes, and 56 barrels butter ; 178 bales
bacon; 1 hogshead and 22 tierces hams; 49 tierces and 32 kegs
lard.

PIANO-FORTE TUNING.
At the suggestion of many of his Customers, W. R. takes this
mode of intimating, and submitting for approval, a Scale of
Charges for Tuning Piano-fortes by the Year.
That Piano-fortes be Tuned by a competent rerson, at regular
intervals, is of importance even in the case of an indifferent in-
strument, but it is indispensably requisite where the preservation,
or otherwise, of a really good one is involved.
The frequently-expressed satisfaction of those Ladies who have
done W. R. the honour to try this system, is the best recommen-
dation in its favour.

SECOND CONCERT
OF THE _
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1856-01-08

FROM PUNCH'S ALMANACK FOR 1856.

. ---
SCIENTIFIC PROBLEM.-If electricity annihilates time, how
about the electric clock ?

GOOD LUCK will drive hedge-hogs to market, and when he
gets 'em there, will find 'em all guinea-pigs.
How TO BE HAPPY.—Reason yourself out of as many
desires as you can, and gratify as many of the rest as possible.
HIGH ART.—The highest specimens of art in London are
undoubtedly Sir James Thornhill's paintings in the dome of
St. Paul's.
WINTER ADVICE TO YOUNG LADIES.—Thin shoes lead to
damp feet; damp feet bring on a cough; a cough may termi-
nate in a coffin.
TnE PIIILOSOPHT OP SMOKING.—Fast young men smoke
a great deal, for it is the nature of a rake to have a quantity
of weeds about him.
WHAT IS A BABY ?—Why, a baby is a living I. 0. U., a
" little Bill" drawn upon Manhood, that is only honoured when
it arrives at maturity.
INFALLIBLE REMEDIES AGAINST TIM GOTYT.—Turn post-
man or get a situation as usher in a cheap school or go into
the workhouse, or, better still, board with a Scotch family.
CLASSICAL BUT TRUE.—Dandies should remember, that
when Diana wished to punish Action in the most degrading
manner, she turned him into a buck.

TIIE BEST DOOR-MAT.—The mat that,
on his return home,
cleans the husband's shoes of every bit of out-door care.
N.B. No family should be without one.

CRUEL KINDNESS.—The parish would present Mr. Dobbs
with a silver cake-basket, and Mrs. Dobbs (it is the complaint
of D.) will ruin him in giving parties to show it.—Beware of
testimonials.

ADDLTERATION 031 FooD.—A cockney wag of unculti-
vated aspirations was heard to say, that bakers' bread re-
minded him of the middle ages : because he always associated
the idea of it with Hallam.

in value, novelty and extent.

NO MORE PILLS NOR ANY OTHER MEDI-
CINE.—For INDIGESTION (Dyspepsia), CONSTIPATION,
NERVOUS, BILIOUS, and LIVER COMPLAINTS, COUGH, CON-
SUMMON, and DEBILITY.—DU BARRY'S delicious REVA-
L ENTA ARABICA FOOD saves 50 times its cost in other Medicine,
and Cures the above complaints and their consequences, such as
flatulency, distension, acidity, heartburn, palpitation of the heart,
nervous headaches, deafness, noises in the head and ears, pains
in almost every part of the body, tic douloreux, face ache, chronic
inflammation, cancer and ulceration of the stomach, pains
at the pit of the stomach and between the shoulders, erysipelas,
eruptions of the skin, biles and carbuncles, impurities and
poverty of the blood, scrofula, cough, asthma,. consumption,
dropsy, rheurnatism,gout, nausea and sickness during pregnancy,
after eating, or at sea, low spirits, spasms, cramps, epileptic fits,
spleen, general debility, inquietude, sleeplessness, involuntary
blushing, paralysis, tremors, dislike to society, unfitness for
study, loss of memory, delusions, vertigo, blood to the head, ex.
haustion, melancholy, groundless fear, indecision, wretchedness,
thoughts of self-destruction, and many other complaints. It is,
moreover, the best food for infants and invalids generally, as
it never turns acid on the weakest stomach, nor interferes with
a good liberal diet, but imparts a healthy relish for lunch and
dinner, and restores the faculty of digestion and nervous and
muscular energy to the most enfeebled.
Analysis by the Professor of Chemistry and Analytical Chemist,
ANDREW URE, F.R.S., &c., &c.—London, June 3,1849.-
1 find it to be a pure vegetable Farina, perfectly wholesome,easily
digestible, likely to promote a healthy action of the stomach and
bowels, and thereby to counteract dyspepsia, constipation, and
their nervous consequences.—ANDßEW URE, M.D., F.R.S., &c.
IMPORTANT CAUTION against the fearful dangers of spurious
imitations:—The Vice-Chancellor, Sir Wm. Page Wood, granted

CATTLE.

LIVERPOOL, JAN. 7.—A fair demand for all descriptions of
stock, and nearly all sold up. Beef, sid to 60 ; mutton, 6id to
6i; ewes, 5i t 6d. Cattle, 2,567 ; sheep, 9,297.

. _
SALFORD, JAN. 2.—The best beet maintained former rates.
Inferior was lower, of which there was a great number left unsold.
Calves were scarce. Best beef, 6d to 6id ; middling 5d to 5i ;
cows, 4d to sad ; best wedders, 6d to 7d ; heavy weights, 5d to 5i d
ewes, 4d to si ; calves, 5d to 7id. Number of beasts, 1,555 ; sheep;
5,798; calves, 83.
DUBLIN, JAN. 3.—There was a considerable supply, and on'
the whole much heavier than usual, particularly towards the close,
good class meat only finding buyers. We note good Beef as from
565 to 60s ; top single beast in some instances 2s to 3s per cwt.
higher; middling 50s upwards; inferior, 43a to 44s per do., in sink;
mutton, 4id to qd and 6i ; veal, 7d to 7ad per lb. The prices thus

coutinues-465 to 48s ; top, 495 per cwt.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1856-01-08

VARIETIES.

ANOTHER RIGHT MAN IN THE RIGHT PLACE.—We un-
derstand that the direction of the city electric telegraph has
been entrusted to Alderman Wire.— Comic Times.

A JUDGE or PORIC.—" No man," says Mrs. Partington,
"was better calculated to judge of pork than my poor husband
was; when he was a living man, he knew what good hogs
were, for he had been brought up with 'em from childhood."
A PUBLICAN'S WIT.— A publican in Stokes'-croft, pro-
voked, a few days ago, by the impropriety of some Land
Transports billetted on him, exclaimed, " I honour and wish
every success to her Majesty's arms, but as for their sup-
porters, they are beasts.—Bristol paper.
THE WAY TO THE WORNITOUSE.—John Reeve was ac-
costed on the Kensington-road by an elderly female, with a
small bottle of gin in her hand. " Pray, sir—l beg your
pardon—is this the way to the workhouse ?" John gave her
a look of clerical dignity, and pointing to the bottle, gravely
said, " No, madam, but that is."

DISCIPLINE nv CHILDIIOOI3..—T am firmly persuaded that
indulgence infallibly produces selfishness and hardness of
heart, and that nothing but a pretty severe discipline and
control can lay the foundation of a magnanimous character.—
Lord Jeffrey.

Waicu is TUB WEAKER SEX P—Females are called the
weaker sex, but why ? If they are not strong, who is ? When
men must wrap themselves in thick garments, and encase the
whole in a stout overcoat to shut out the cold, women in thin
silk dresses, with neck and shoulders bare, or nearly so, say
they are perfectly comfortable! When men wear waterproof
boots over woollen hose, and encase the whole in indiarubber,
to keep them from freezing, women wear thin silk hose and
cloth shoes, and pretend not to feel the cold ! When men
cover their heads with furs, and then complain of the severity
of the weather, women hang an apology for a bonnet at the
back of their heads, and ride or walk about in north-east
winds, professing not to suffer at all !

NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S HUNTING DIARY.—A correspondent
of the Northern Ensign says a book is shortly to be published
by Colonel Rawlinson upon further discoveries he has made :
" He found Nebuchadnezzar's hunting diary with notes, and
here and there a portrait of his dogs, sketched by himself,
with his name under it. He mentions in it having been ill,
and whilst he was delirous, he thought he had been turned
out to graze like the beasts of the field. Is not this a wonder-
ful corroboration of Scripture ? Rawlinson also found a pot
of preserves in an excellent state, and gave some to the Queen
to taste. How little Nebuchadnezzar's cook dreamt, when
making them, that, 25 centuries after, the Queen of Eng-
land would eat some of the identical preserves that figured at
her master's table."
