TESTIMONIALS,

From Joseph Henry Green Esq., F. R.S., one of the Council et the Royal
College of Surgeons, Surgeon to SL Thomas's Hospital, and Professor
of Surgery in the King's Co lege, London.
" I have male trial of Mr. Frank's Solution of Copaiba, at St. Thomas's
Hospital. in a variety of cases of discharges in the male and female, and
the results warrant my stating, that it is an efficacious remedy, and one
which does not produce the usual unpleasant effects of Copaiba.

From Bransby Cooper, Esq., Surgeon to Guy's Hospital, and Lee-

. .
, tui er on Anatomy, &c &c.
Mr. Bransby Cooper presents his compliments to Mr. George Franks,
and has great pleasure in bearing testimony of the efficacy of his Solution

the Solution in ten or twelve cases with perfect success.

From William Hentsch, Esq., No. 5, Furnivars-inn, Holborn, late
House-surgeon to the Free ospital, Greville-street, Hatton-garden.
" My dear Sir,—l have given your Medicine in very many cases of
Gonorrhoea and G!eets, some of which had been many months under
other treatment, and can bear testimony to its great efficacy. I have
found it to cure in a much shorter time, and with more benefit to the
general health, than any other mode of treatment I' know of; the gene-
rality of cases have been cured within a week from the commencement of
eking the Medicine, and some of them in less time than that. Have the
goodness to send me another supply. I am, dear Sir, yours, very truly
" April 15, 1835.' (Signed) " WILLIAM HENTSCIi.
From It. W. Meade, Esq. Late Colonel:commanding the Rifle Brigade in
the Columbian Service, and formerly Captain in his Majesty's 13th
Light Dragoon*.
" Sir,—Having retired from active life, I feel a strong repugnance
against appearing before the public in any character, but my reluctance
has been overcome by a sense of the duty I owe to my fellow beings, and
the gratitude I teel towards you. Having served many years in his Ma.
jesty's Army in India, and subsequently in the Columbian Forces, under
the gallant, but ill-requited Bolivar, I contracted in .those hot climates a
disease, which has for years inflicted on me the most poignant sufferings ;
since, however, I have been fortunate enotr,,,h to obtain an introduction
to you, and having used your Solution of Copaiba a few times, I have
been relieved beyond my most sanguine expectations, and am now entirely
ree from pain or the obstructions to which I was so many years a victim.
" I am, Sir,' your obedient servant,
(Signed) " It. W. MEADE."

The Marquis of Douro has published an address to
the electors of Norwich. The Noble Candidate pledges him-
self to the support of the same political principles as those
upheld by the, present Members. His Lordship states himself
also to be opposed to the wild " notions of improvement" of
the present day, to the " crude political theories " and " dar-
ing ill-digested propositions " of Reformers, but that he is
ready " with caution " " to correct what may be amiss," while
at the same time he is determined to support the Church as
the mildest and as the " Church of the people."

An unfortunate and fatal occurrence took place a t
the east end of Dundee on Tuesday forenoon, by which th e
loss of three lives was occasioned. A number of vaults for
eellarage were. constructed in Constable street, and prepara-
rations were making for building a house to the southward, in
connexion with a part of them. Either from their nct being
sufficiently strong, or from the moist weather preventing the
materials from adhering together, three of the arches suddenly
gave way, and in a moment there was a mass of ruins. Three
labourers were under one of them at the time, engaged in
clearing out the rubbish which had accumulated, and were all
buried in the wreck. Steps were immediately taken for having
them extricated ; but, ere this could be effected, a considerable
time had elapsed. When got out the bodies were dreadfully
bruised and mutilated, and presented a frightful spectacle.
Edinburgh Courant.
STARVATION.—The death of Ann Lock, at Pil
ton, near Barnstaple, having taken place, as it was alleged,
by the Barnstaple Union relieving officer neglecting to give
her aid during her illness, although he had repeatedly pro-
mised to do so, the greatest agitation pervaded the town. At
the inquest, it was stated that Joce, the officer alluded to, had
been repeatedly requested to send a medical man to the de-
ceased ;he said he would do so, but no one went. In ex-
planations he said he had quite forgotten it. The jury, after
hearing the evidence of a surgeon, returned a verdict that the
Deceased died from inflammation of the lungs, and the n-Tleet
of the relieving officer. —North Devon Advertiser.
We have seen handbills in some of the windows in
this town, stating that petitions to both Hous.rs of Parliament
against some of the obnoxious clauses in the Poor Law Bill
are lying for signatures at Leamington, Warwick, and Kenil-
worth. The scheme appears to have been devised by the
Tories to raise an outcry against the present Ministry.--
Leamington Chronicle.
On Wednesday afternoon, between two andt hree
o'clock, a number of excavators, who were employed by the
Server Company in Wardour-street, Soho-square, discovered
at the depth of about twenty-five feet a great quantity of hu-
man bones, which, on being exposed to the air, crumbled to
dust. A short distance from the bones, a number of large
brass spoons, variously engraved, besides other curiosities,
were also found. Shortly afterwards, the curiosities were
purchased by Mr. Bastington, the extensive dealer in an./
tiquities, residing in Wardour-street, where they are to be
seen. Some medical gentlemen who examined the bones,
gave it as their opinion that they were those of persons
buried during the period of the great plague of London in
1666.

LIVERPOOL, TIIURSDAY.—The sales of Cotton
to-day amount to about 1,800 bags. The market coninues
dull, but without any material alteration in prices.
A brewery is advertised for sale at Hungerford, with
no less than 19 inns and public houses attached to it, and the
property of the owner.
