ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL. Gray's-inn road,
in th, immediate v'einitv of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at Ring's-cross:

Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUi CLECCIT, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.
This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is aecom-
palled by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 1,000 out-patients a week.
The Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued suppaFt. to enable them to dmit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward
Mae orman. Esq. Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Contts and
Co. ; Drummond' and Co. ; Henries and Co. ; Ransom and

Mr. N. C. the well-known chemist who for a
onaid. rahle period has been engaged by the Brltish Govern_
m, nt in indurating the exterior of the H uses of Parliam nt,
has made very important improvements in the above-named
artHe, and has erected worksi near London, for the purpose
of more fully developing s improved process.
There is already a considerable and rapidly increasing de-
mand for the improved tion termed " Panonia "
Leather Cloth, and the object ueofthe comp ny is to provide
sufficient capitil to extend the works so that the ..ernand
may be met.
The " Panonia" Leather Cloth, exhibited in the Grea
favourabl
t Tn-
ternational Exhibition of 1862, ciass 27, was ers
commented on by several of the leading Jo
following Is au extract from "The Times" of the 2'7tat'llodethey
ber, 1862 :
"During the last few weeks Mr. Szerelmy, so wen Imo
wn
for his labours in connexion with his new process for pre-
serving the stone of the Rouses of P filament trom decay,
has sent in several s= ecimens of a newkind of Leather C'oth
which is just n, w exciting a good deal of attention, and is
1 kely to rove a valuable discovery. By the application of a
comp sition known only to the inventor, calico, linen, or
alpaca, when coa ed wth it. assumes many of the most
valuab e properties of ordinary leather, the fabric it self re-
taining all its flexibility, though perfectly wateroroof and
possessing all the strength of commo . leather, though in-
finitely lighter and less than half the cost. The pro ess Is
capable of application to all the materials for which hides are
now used, so that if the material only realises in practic any
one of the many savings its use is said to effect it will be one
of the most valuable new materials the Exhibition has
brought forth."
Specimens of the "Panonia" Leather Cloth may be seen.
and every information obtained, at the Temporary Offices of
the Company.
Applitations for shares must be addressed to the Bankers

(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by meatis of his patented soit elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity, dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings, and defying detection by Vie ch,est
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary zonstruction, they aie guarantee.: last a life
