THE NICOLL.—REGENT-STREET and
CORNIIILL.

" Costly tiky habit as thy purse can buy,
But not expressed in fancy—rich, not gaudy ;
For the aparel oft proclaims the man."
ILIIIE spirit and meaning of the above quotation
may with justice be applied to The NICOLL, a patented
Paletot or outer coat, adapted for a variable climate, by means
of a novel and most ingenious contrivance, whereby it can be
converted at pleasure from a warm to a light garment, or vice
versa. The wearer's personal appearance is moreover hn-
proved, and lie possesses a most gentlemanly and graceful gar-
ment for either cold or warm weather ; not only this, but the inner

lining, when detached, can be worn alone, and forms a most corn-
foi table reading or dressing Jacket ; and though the tout ensemble is
rich in quality, yet it retains a moderate cost, such varying from one
and a half to three and a half guineas, but can be had in London
only of:tht-Pitemtees, 11.. T. and D. NICOLL, 114, 116, 120, RE-
GENT-STREET, and 22, CORNHILL.

FOREIGN WOOLS.—" At the recent Wool
Sales, the whole of certain qualities of Foreign Wools, afte r
some competition, were nurchased for Messrs. Nicoll, the extensive
Woollen Drapers and Clothiers of Regent-street and Cornhill. They
are all marked for Gloucestershire, as in that county the mills are
situated wherein the raw material will be converted into the beau-
tiful fabric known as the Nicollian Cloth, a species of manufacture
introduced by the frm from whom it derives its name."—The Sun.

WOOLLEN BUYERS and CONSUMERS are reminded that
Messrs. NICOLL were the first, and continue to be the only, house
in the United Kingdom that ever offered to the buyer and consumer,
for cash payments, the saving of all the several profits of the In-
termediate grades that continue to exist between the wool growers
and themselves. As will be shown by the above extract from one of the
public journals, the wool used in the manufacture of the Nicollian Cloth
does not leave Messrs. N.'s po-session until it is produced in the piece
ready for sale, either by their Agents, or themselves at the Whole-
sale Warehouse, 120, REGENT-STREET, and afterwards when
made up into the fashionable and Patented garments known as the
NICOLL, the REGISTERED PALETOT, and NICOLL'S'
MORNING COAT, all of which can be purchased singly of the
several recognised Agents, as also of the Patentees.

nes,es PRINCE ALBERT, PRINCE GEORGE of CAMBRIDGE,

ANOVELTY.—There has lately been registered
an article that cannot fail to find a place in every Gentle-
man's wardrobe, as it effectually provides for a long-acknowledged
want therein. The said novelty consists in a body garment some-
what in the form of a dress-coat—that is to say, it can be
worn without any distinct infringement of tke laws of cos-
tume recognised in society upon - ordinary dress occasions ;
but yet the garment is more especially intended fer morning
wear, as a Riding or Walking Coat ; and as, fer such exercises, each
will maintain his own idea as to the requisite ease necessary for its
fit, the inventors, in order to insure the full convenience of their
patrons, will keep ready an extensive graduation of sizes, FO that a
selection can be made proportionate with the nature of exertion or
the wearer's own taste—thus at once obviating any annoyance
arising from the cutter not immedlatelely comprehending what is
wanted.

Although composed of the NICOLLIAN CLOTH, yet a most
moderate price is charged, viz., Two Guineas for NICOLL'S
MORNING COAT, as that is the name given to the said novelty,
and wnich can be had in London only of H. J. and D. NICOLL, 114,
116, and 120, REGENT-STREET, and 22, CORNHILL.

TO THE COUNTRY TRADE, &c.—Such re-
spectable Houses as may be disposed to add to their present
trade the very important addition of a first-rate connexion, consisting
of purchasers of first-class Goods, principally PALETOTS, &c., can
effect their object by applying for terms, &c. to the under-men-
tioned, who will duly forward same, with fullest particulars,
in the event of there being an opening for an agency in the
town from whence they write.—H. J. and D. NICOLL, WHOI.E-
S ALE and COUNTING-HOUSE DEPARTMENT, 120, REGENT-
STREET, London.

J.,„ r. One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
nse of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes ern-
aitter the latter. The solitary ono may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
romprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
Cement. Honour and justice demand that health sheuldform an item
In the compact ; it alone dignifies the affiance. Blighted hopes er
eglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
,heso surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
EMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is.
Inch (by post, in stamps, is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
hem. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but
or the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom
:key are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
ittle publications claim your attention (same price Is. eack,
oy post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
tvoid," and " How to be floppy." They are not merely
~amphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
Ife, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
ervance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as ho
,:ould be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
n the " sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of
herwood, 23, Paterncster-row; Carvalho, 147, Fleet-street • Mann,

SOUTH AMERICA.

Accounts from Rio de Janeiro, dated Jan. 9, have
reached Liverpool, which inform us that her Majesty's
packet Spider had arrived at that port, with the mails for
England, from the River Plate. She brought news from
Buenos Ayres to the 28th, and Monte Video the 23d,
December. At Monte Video nothing particular had
occurred. The Government had contracted with one of
the most respectable houses in the city to furnish the
troops with provisions for the term of six months, com-
mencing Ist January. By a decree, published 22d De-
cember, the duty on flour was to be continued three
months longer.
From Buenos Ayres we learn that the Government
will have expended the sum of 2,600,000 dolls. (paper)
in the months of November and December, for the muni-
tions of war, part of which was to be sent to the Entre
Rios and Corrientes. Mr. Southeron's case remains as
before. Rosas refuses to receive him officially, and it is
generally understood that he will continue to do so until
he is authorised to accede to the demands of Rosas,
which are said to be the restoration of the Falkland
Islands to the Argentine Republic, and remuneretion for
the guano brought by English ships from Patagonia, as
well as the damages caused by the British fleet in the
Parana.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL N
CITY, QUARTER TO TH
There was a firm market !or Cotton at Liver
terday, and prices of the middling qualities of • •
were extreme compared with last Friday's rates -
of all other kinds are the same. The sales wask4stla.,l',,;,,t
mated at 8,000 bales, and consist of about 7,000,'.!
rican at 3jd. to sid., 100 Bahia at Sid. to .5144-406;,-11-1
Egyptian at qd. to 64d., 500 Surat at Sid. to 3id:, andl
80 Sea Island at Bd. to ls. old. per lb.--Railway Shares
were heavy, with very little business doing.
The imports of grain and meal into Great Britain
during the week, to the 14th instant, were again of
considerable extent, amounting to 147,241 quarters, and
there were entered for home consumption 190,414
quarters, the total duty amounting to 9,8514
The produce markets have a favourable appearance,
and holders do not appear to press sales. At the wool
sales, there has been a rise of 2d. to 3d. per lb., and this,
with the favourable result of the indigo auctions, is the
best evidence that can be afforded o' the improved state
of things in the manufacturing districts, whence indeed
our accounts are very cheerful, although they notice
rather a natural reluctance to give the advanced prices
asked for rawstaples. This is a feeling that will subside
with the growth of confidence.
An excellent site for future emigration appears to
present itself in the northern part of Van Diemen's Land,
and from the particulars forwarded to us by the Agri-
cultural Company of that beautiful island we cannot
avoid the conclusion, that at no distant day a rival ca-
pital to Hobert Town will exist there. It appears that
at Circular Head, on the sea coast, almost immediately
opposite Port Phillip, there is a bluff promontory in
Bass's Straits, that is on the north-west side of the
island. Here there are twenty thousand acres of land,
with a climate much resembling that of Devonshire, free
from drought in summer or frost in winter. The soil,
though heavily timbered, is very rich, being of a deep
black vegetable mould, easily worked, and producing
luxuriant crops of potatoes, wheat, and every description
of European grain, fruits, and vegetables. The settlers
there have 2,000 acres already cleared and cultivated,
and Stanley contains all the usual comforts of small
towns in England, including places of worship, schools,
stores, &c. The total population on the company's
lands is 900, according to the Government census,
and these possess cattle, &c., valued at 15,0001. There
are no convicts employed within 150 miles, nor any
aboriginal natives, and roads, bridges, and granaries
have been formed. To purchasers of 80 acre allotments
of freehold land, a free passage is offered, and from the
high standing of the merchants and capatilists connected
with the company, there can be no doubt of any engage-
ment being entered into being strictly carried out.
The letters by the West India steamer are not yet de-
livered, and, therefore, we can add nothing to what sp•
pears in another column.
The supply of Stock continues as large as ever, and
the dealers finding this, without a corresponding de-
mand from other quarters, are naturally bidding lower
rates. The easy rates at which money can be borrowed
on Stock enables them, however, to take pretty freely
what is offered. Consols have been 92 to 93 for Trans-
fer and Account. It is reported that the Bank is lend-
ing on Stock at lower rates. Exchequer-bills are 41s.
to 455. and India Bonds 575. to 595. premium. Bank
Stock is at 194.

The Foreign Securities have been steady. Venezuela
support the high rates of 26 to 27. Mexican have been
at 26i I. Brazilian are 82i to 83i, and Grenada de-
ferred 3-1. Spanish Five per Cents. are 17i. Dutch
