CAUTION.-MECHI'S MAGIC STROP.-
Whereas sundry unprincipled persons (for the sake of a
greater profit, are endeavouring to palm upon the public INFE-
RIOR RAZOR STROPS, calling them " The Magic Strop,"
not having Mechi's name upon them ; the public are respectfully
informed that no STROP is GENUINE without Mechi's name
fully and clearly embossed thereon. By noticing this, much dis-
appointment will be avoided, as Medd will not hold himself res-
Ponsible for the quality of any strop (however much like his in out-
ward appearance) that is without his name. A liberal allowance
to the trade, also to captains and merchants who ship in large quan-
tities. They will be found a profitable article for foreign invest-
ments, having an extensive reputation in all the British Colonies, as
well as in almost every capital city in Europe.—Manufactory, 4,
Leadenhall-street, four doors from Cornhill, London, where Mechi
manufactures extensively' the following articles, either for shipping
or for wholesale or retail customers, all warranted : Table and small

NORTON'S CAMOMILE PILLS are a pure
extract of Camomile Flowers, prepared by a peculiar process,
by which all the medicinal properties of rather more than once of th e
lowers are concentrated into four moderate-sized Pills. They are mild in
operation, and have proved wonderfully successful in removing every
symptom of indigestion, sick head.ache, loss of appetite, giddiness, heart-
burn, costiveness, eruptions of the skin, and all complaints arising from a
disordered state of the digestive organs; they require no alteration of
diet, and persons who have suffered from indigestion for several years
have, by their use, In a few weeks perfectly recovered, which is the most
convincing proof of their etfic.tcy.

T' H E RUBY, a new
.superior FAST DAY
COACH, to BIRMINGHAM in Eleven Hours ! The
rate and style of Stage Coach Travelling have arrived at such a
degree of perfection, that it becomes difficult to have any improve-
ment to announce to the Travelling Community ; and it is our in-
tention, therefore, only to say of THE RUBY, as a New Day
Coach to. Birmingham, that we trust its Patrons will find that it
deserves to be classed with those other first-rate Conveyances for
which this Establishment is so proverbial, and that it will merit its
splendid appellation, and become a favourite Gem with the Public.
It will start from the BULL and MOUTH at Half-past Seven,
and from the Peacock, Islington, at a Quarter before Eight,
through Stoney Stratford and Coventry, and arrive at the CAS-
TLE HOTEL, BIRMINGHAM, at a Quarter before Seven in
the Evening. •
