Treasurer—J. Alfred Novello. Sub-treasu'rer—Dr. John Watts.

NOTICE TO PAPER-111A KE RS.

The association has every reason to believe that the irregularities
and anomalies incidental to the collection of the paper duty, are
quite as numerous as those which for many years it was engaged in
exposing, as connected with the advertisement duty and the news-
paper stamp. Nothing will tend so much to the abolition of the
paper duty as a systematic attack upon the injustice which it inflict
in individual cases. The association will therefore feet obliged by
any addiition to its Information on this subject, and will be ready to
consider the practicability of obtaining redress in any individuals
case of grievance.

Many of the fair sex THE LADIES.
are marts to Bunions, a
description of corn to which p

attention which a source of so much discomfort and pain deserves.
In consequence of this,it is often necessary to submit to a long con-
finement in order to have them eradicated. M. Siemms has the
satisfaction of stating that he can speedily remove them by a simple
.
application of which he is the sole inventor. Ladies will do
well to avail themselves of this opportunity of getting aid of this
troublesome description of corn, so often neglected in its earliest
stages.
