" That adverting to the Despatches of the Court of Di-
rectors of the 20th of February, 1833, the 22d of February,
1837, and the Bth of August, 1638, it does not appear that the
professed object of the first mentioned Despatch (viz., the
withdrawal of the encouragement afforded by England to the
Idolatrous Worship of India, and the relinquishment of the
Revenue derived therefrom) has yet been accomplished, and,
therefore, that it be recommended to the Court of Directors to

the 20th of February, 1833."

STOVE ON PRINCIPLES ENTIRELY NEW, AND
UNEQUALLED FOR COMFORT AND ECONOMY.
TBy her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent.
HE CHUNK PATENT STOVE,
invented by Mr. R. PROSSER, Civil Engineer, is distin-
guished from all others by its entire freedom from dust or
smoke, its great economy of fuel, and its perfect safety from
fire. It has been a source of great comfort in the nursery and
bed-room of he invalid, affording an uniform temperature
through the day and night, with only one supply, while the
most delicate test cannot detect anything arising from its use
which is injurious to health—it merely warms the air without
decomposing it; and, as there is no door, none of the gases
generated by combustion can pass into the apartment.
Wherever warmth is required, this Stove is applicable. It is
as desirable for the drawing-room as the laundry ; for warming
greenhouses it possesses extraordinary claims, the very great
expense of building flues, and afterwards the immense cop-
stimption of fuel, being avoided. For workshops and ships'
eabins it is invaluable ; it requires attention only once in
twenty-four hours, during which time the cost will not exceed
twopence. Price, Plain, 31. ; Fluted, 3/. 10s.
Manufactured by the Sole Proprietors, RIPPON and
BURTON, WELLS-STREET, OXFORD-STREET ; of
whom may be had detailed Catalogues of the Prices of Fenders,
Fire-arms, Warranted Table Cutlery, Superior Nickel Silver,
&c., 20 per cent. under any other old-established House, which
can be forwarded for a single postage. Established:l62o.
CAUTION TO ALL WHO HAVE PURCHASED THE
CHUNK
PATENT STOVE.
It having been represented to Rippon and Burton that the
Chunk Patent Stove has been fixed with
piping improperly
made, and without sand for the Fire
Pail to stand upon, in the
inner circle of the bottom, R. and B. feel
it necessary to state,
that unless their printed directions (which are very short) are
in every respect attended to, the action of the Stove will be
much injured, if not destroyed.

RE-ANIMATION.
THE Medical Effects ef Steel, as a strengthener
and restorative, have been known for ages to excel those
of all other articles of the Materia Medica, and in this age of luxury
and dissipation, when the indiscretions of youth disappoint the ex.
Pectations of maturity, it is not to be wondered that a medicine of
such etfi,...acy as SEDDON'S genuine AROMATIC LOZENGES
of STEEL should have attracted the attention of the first medi-
cal men in Europe. Oihen the most important functions of life are
suspended, and those v. ho arc invalids by inheritance or imorudence
are reduced to the mo,t deplorable state of nervous debility, it
Is not in despair that relief is to be fourd. It has been ascertained,
beyond a doubt, that these circumstances are occasioned by a gene-
ral or partial relaxation or weaknesse3 in either sex; and it is
°`:luallY certain that SEDDON'S LOZENGES are the best, if
net the only remedy ever discovered for this species of debility.
when taken into the stomach, thee immediately diffuse themselves
f' le a vapour through every pore, producirg tffects at once delight-

Lc; the circulation lansuid, an 1 the faculties pa.alysed, these Lo-
rPges are found to give tone to the nerves, exhilirste the animal
