IT IS AN OLD SAYING, THE BEST IS THE CHEAPEST,.
Several Ladies and Gentlemen who formerly used the Russia Oil, being
persuaded to use other Oils for the hair, as they are not so dear, but in
the end found them the dearest ; instead of benefit, found their hair fall
off, or turn grey, have declared they will use no other than the RUSSIA
OIL in future, it being the beA article for moistening the Hair when
dre:sing, as it keeps real or false hair of its natural gloss and curls, and
is so great a nourisher, if used constant, never a hair will fall off or
turn gravy; in short, where there is hair by na:nre, and it ills got thin,
or bald, by using the Russia Oil regularly, you :nay rely o:► its being re-
storcd.

A CA n-rioN.—As a set of Swindlers have cotinterfeited the Russia
Oil, and given it for sale at Hair-dressers' shops' J.M. they persuade it is
the genuine, to deceive, and have imitated the Eagle and Signature on
the cover. To prevent the like impositions, and as mote security, the
Proprietor has leave of the Commissioners of his Majzsty's Stamp Office.
to have his name " A. PRI::CE" printed on tile Stamp of each bottle.
the counterfeiting of which is feloi.y.
Ladies and Gentlemen will he particular to observe the Caution, as
many who have been misled, or pursuaded to purchase the counterfeit,
complained to the Proprietor of :he it..jury it bad done their hair.
Ask for Prince's Russia Oil, at si. per bottle, or one bottle, containing
four small, at 11. 2s. or six large hot ties at .51. duty included.
Sold by the Proprietor, A. PR INL;E, John-street, Oxford street. (ob-
serve, it is not a Shop, it is a Private House, opposite No. 7, as there
are Shops in the neighbourhood that sell counterfeits;) and of most ()Ain-

A letter has been received from a respectable gentleman just returned
to the West Indies, by which we are grieved to hear that a Slave Ship
was fallen in with on the passage, which had left the Coat of Africa
with 100 slaves, ten of whom had died; three of the whites had also
died, the Captain was ill, Use whole appearance of the vessel was mi.'
s,:rable, and she was in so leaky a state, that it was thought she could
hardly reach land. The Captain, pretending to be a Spaniard, bound
to Cuba, hoisted Spanish colours, but as he spoke English so well, there
was every reason to believe he was an Englishman, or an American,
and was going to smuggle the slaves into some American vrt. When.
the Mate went on board the slave ship, two of :he poor n4:rocs, suppo-.
sing he was come to release them, lifted up their shackled hands, and
exclaimed, " 0 King George! King Georgel" The ship, we suzzret to
hear, was not captured, but suffered to p: oceed with her yrt;.se:able an(
unlawful cargo, citlior to lierish iu tizewaves, of ti) be sold us tiat m44'40
