Ant-none. By promoting gentle expertmation. it very shortly re-
lieves the.panwit of a slight or recent Cold, end a few doses are ge-
nerally sufficient to remove those which neglect has rendered more
confirmed and obstinate, and which are accompanied with Cough,
Spitting of Blood, and other serious symptoms. Its peculiar bal-
samic powers tend to heal soreness, and allay the irritation of the
lungs,

..."Be carelkil ao ask for Bailer's Pectoral Elixir:

PRINCE'S CELEBRATE!) RUSSIA OIL is now
so improved with an extra valuable ingredient, through which
it has made it the greatest preserver sod perimeter to the hair : if
used constantly, not a hair will fat of or tutu greys it is such a
nourisher to the hair, that even if it has begun to tutu grey, it will
restore it to its natural colour by tubbing it frequently into the
roots, as hundreds have experienced who have used it regularly. It
is sure to clear the scurf, from infancy to old age, and when dress-
ing with it, will always keep the head and hair clean and besuti.
ful, and in curl. Will surely restore the hair on bald places, if
there is the least sip of roots ; but if persons are bald, and the roots
are entirely gone, it is against nature that any article can restore it;
and if persons pretend to restore hair when the roots are gone, by
any article whatever, it is a falsity. Persons who have begun to
get bald ought to be particular to use the Russia Oil daily, or It
the least every other y, as there must be a complaint in the meal
which may go further, and awry off the hair entirely, if
which has often been the ease. Even Medical Gentlemen of the
Medical Hall, who have analysed Prince's Russia Oil, have pub-
lished in the " Gazette of Health," No. IK, that the diners"), is a
great credit to the proprietor, and is superior to any other Oil foe
the hair, and will do in cases of baldness and weak hair what can
possibly be done in strengthening and restoring it. The Medical
Gentlemen have also analysed another Oil, which is daily puffed in
the Papers as used by E Kings, Dukes, &c., and have
published in the " Gazette Health," No. IS, that on examining
the ingredients of this grand Oil, they find it contains only com-
mon Oil, coloured and perfumed; therefore, it cannot be compared
to the Russia Oil as a nourisher to the hair. There are petty per.
fumers, hair-dressers and others, who melt bullocks' fat, and put
it in pots and perfume it, and take in the public by pretending to
sell them Bears' Grease; but it is well known that Bars' Grease is
too harsh for the hair, and makes the hair turn grey and fall off.
The truth of this is well known to every one who knows the Empo.
roe Alexander, as he lost his hair at an early age; and many per-
sons of distinction in the North also lost their hair at an early age,
through using Bears' Grease. In short, in Russia, and other parts
of the North, where the Bears are, it is found from experience that
Bears' Grease is too harsh foe the hair; and whoever recommends
it in this country for the hair, must do it for imposition or must
be Ignorant of its injuring the hair ; but Princes Celebtatld Russia
Oil is mixed with the most nourishing oils in Europe, and it is
always like • jelly; and it is proved by every one who has given it
a fair trial to be the only article that actually preserves and pro.
motes the hair.

It is no wonder that Ladies and Gentlemen have complained of
late of the Russia Oil not being of service to the hair, as they have
found out that unprincipled persons have sold them counterfeits.
Ladies and gentlemen will be particalar, as impostors in Brat Bri-
tain, France, and different parts of the Continent, have made the
coven of the Counterfeit Russia Oil so much like the genuine, and
some, more to deceive falsely, have printed on the counterfeit covers
' the original," or " genuine Russia Oil," and some even are so
daring, although they know It is punishable, to put the original
proprietor's name. Therefore, purchasers should be cautious, and
have It of the proprietor, or of respectable vendors.

lings ; a large bottle, containing five ounces, one pound, is a saving.

Prince's Russia Oil ltas been improved with the rens ingredient
since the year 1822, thvougb which it will keep pleasant in thh or
any other climate. Several captains who have come from the Con-
tlnen• have declared, that whenever they landed merchandise they
have been Wed if they had any of Prince's Russia Oil? therefore
merchants will find an advantage in exporting it. Merchants sod
Captains will receive a liberal allowance for exportatiod.
Proved by affidavit on the 24th of November, 1814, before the
Lord Mayor of London, as A. Prince is the original Proprietor in
the universe of the Russia Oil ; and therefore, if any perfume,
medicine-vender, hair.dresser, or any one else in Oreat Britain cie
any other country, sell an Oil eared Runk Oil, that is not princes,
they are impostors, as they sell counterfeits to their customers. As
several Lathes and Gentlemen in the country have been taken is by
unprincipled persona selling them Counterfeit Russia Oil, therefore
will be aura to have the genuine by sending a remittance to site
proprietors, will be forwarded immediately by each.

then several respectable Trading Houses have subscribed One
Pound each, to forward the adoption of his suggestions ; which have
also been encouraged by the Directors of the Bank and last India
Company, with some other public bodies, by purchasing books,
and by expressions of their good wishes ; and the Corporation of the
City of London, on the M of November, ordered MO of his books,
which have Seen distributed, free of expense, to the Members of
the Common Council, and Officers of the Collet.

The expenses of printing, advertising, and other contingeneies,

revising the Bankrupt Laws for the benefit of the wading interest,
may be prepared, to lay before Parliament at its auanbling in
