TN consequence of the great rush of Visitors to see
BANVARD'S GRAND MOTING PAINTING of the MIS-
SISSIPPI and MISSOURI RIVERS, at the EGYPTIAN HALL,
Piccadilly, the Proprietor respectfully anneunces Two Exhibitions
every day during the holidays. This immense Painting is the
Largest in the World, and exhibits more than 3,000 miles of Ameri-
can scenery.—The Day exhibition will commence every Afterno,n,
at Half-past Two, and the Evesiug at Half-past seven o'clock;
doors open half an hour before commeaclng. Admission, lower
seats, 2s. ; gallery, Is.

rHE NICOLL, REGENT. STREET and
CORNITILL.
The NICOLL.—This is the Trade Mark and distinctive Title
given to a Patented OUTER COAT, or PALETOT, in which there
is a double use and purpose ; in other words, the same garment can
be used as a warm Winter Outer Ceat, and again converted into a
light Walking Paletot, by simply removing a warm interlining,
which is attached or detached easily, and in a manner most novel
and ingenious.
The NICOLL, or the Two Garments (above-mentioned) incor-
porated in One, is charged at the moderate price of Three Guineas.
Indeed, if the contemplated Sale of Thousands be not effected, the.
Patentees will lose rather than be fairly remunerated by the low
Prices now quoted.
Messrs. NICOLL are the Originators and Sole Proprietors of the
deservedly well-known REGISTERED PALETOT (6 and 7 Vic.
cap. 65) of Llama Cloth, and they continue to be honourel with the
Patronage of their Royal Ilighnesses Prince Albert, Prince George of
-Cambridge, Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, his Grace the Duke of
Wellington, and all others distinguished in rank and fashion, the
Court, the Pulpit, and the liar.
MEMBERS of the CLERICAL, LEGAL, LITERARY, and
MEDICAL PROFESSIONS will, it is presumed, readily concede
their patronage upon this New and Patented Invention, as also
Merchants and Railway Traveller', who are subject to colds, &c.,
arising trom the fluctuations in a climate like that of Great Britain,
where, even in the most settled weather, at this season, a warm coat
Is universally used during mornings and evenings, but at mid-day,
from the active habits and avocations of all classes, a light Walking
Paletot is indispensable.
RAILWAY TRAVELLERS will find great convenience in its
Pocket Protector, which effectually preserves from loss the railway
ticket, loose cash, &c., besides a peculiar comfort for Night Travel-
ling, which must be seen and worn to be appreciated.
The Country Agents for the New Patents are the same highly re-
spectable firms who have of late years held the appointments direct
from the Patentees in London.
CAUTION.—The NICOLL —Any person or persons using the
same, or a similar title, or trade mark, whereby the Public may he
deceived, will be proceeded against, as by injunction of the High
Court of Chancery, Re.; as also by the infringement of the principle
claimed in the Royal Letters Patent, granted to the UR lersigned,
which mainly consists in the adaptation of the linings of Coats,
Paletots, Re., to a separate use and purpose, Re.

CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES.
The gaiety that reigns supreme at the social re-unions of this
period of the year induces the fair and youthful to be more than usu-
ally desirous of shining in personal attraction, while the rich luxuri-
ant tress, the clear and transparent complexion, and the pearly set
of teeth form admirable trophies of the ineitimable virtues of
ROWLANI)S' MACASSAR OIL,
ROWL ANDS' KALYDOR,
Aaid ROWLANDS' ODONTO, or PEARL DENTIFRICE.
The patronage of Royalty throughout Europe, and their general use
hythe aristocracy and the Mite of fashion, together with the confir-
'station by experience of the infallible efficacy of these creative and
renovating specifics, have characterised them with perfection, and
given them a celebrity unparalleled.
As presents for both sexes none can be in,,re recommendatory, or
more now in general use.
BEWARE OF SPURIOUS MUTATION'S.
Some are offered under the implied sanction of royalty, and the
Government Departments, and similar attempts at deception. The
only Genuine of each bears the name of " ROWLANDS' " preceding
that of the Articles on the Wrapper or Label, with their Signature
at the foot, in Red Ink, thus

KEATING'S COUGH LOZENGES.
A certain remedy for disorders of the pulmonary or.;aes—in
difficulty of breathing —in redundency of phlegm—in incipient con-
sumption (of which cough is the most positive indication) they are of
unerring efficacy. In asthma, and in winter cough, they have never
been known to fail.
