pointed to alominat,i and imice choice of Three' udges, -who
are to decide agreeably to certain Rules prescribed in the Deed
of Settlement, upon the cimparative merits of such Treatises
as shall be laid before !nem: And it maybe pmper to nien-
tion, that to discourage mean perfatiances, the I edges are
empowered (if unanimous only) to find none of the Treatises
produced of sufficient merit to entitle the writers to the pre-
miums. This will, however,. E(e, no discouragement to any
person of Oil tty ; and ;he Trustees hope it is a case which
cart scarcely happen.

shall be laid before them ; and the Trustees will, at the first
term et Whitsunday,, after the determination of the J udges,
pay the premiums to the successful Candidates, agreeably to
the Will of the Testator,
As it tends much to an impartial decision, that the Names
of the Authors should be concealed from the. Judges, the
'Trustees request 'that the Treatises may not be exhibited in

Names annexed to them. Each 'E'reatise must be distinguish-
ed by a peculiar Motto; this Motto must be tvritten on

HEALTH AND LONGEVITY.
DR. lAMES's ANALEPTIC AND ANTIBILIOUS
PILLS.

MHE Celebrity of the Analeptic Pills, as a ge-
neral Preservative of Health, is become universal, tp:r.i.
their Efficacy in those tompiaints which continually
turb the Human Frame ; such as Colds, Rheumatisms,
Head-achs, Indigestions, and other Diseases of the Stomach
and I%wels ; .Ivhicki arise from the Vicissitudes of our Cli-
mate,_ or from Indulgence in the Luxuries of Lite; and these
salutary E fleas:are produced by gently opening the. Pores by
Night, and the Body by Day, without requiring any parti-
cular Regimen or Confinement. But though the Analeptic;
Pills are also very serviceable in Bilious and other deep.
seated,Dii;orders, yet beinK designed aia mild Purgative only;
and therefore not always sufficiently active,. the Antibilious
Pills have been recommended in aid, by an eminent Physician,
who has used these Medicines combined 'tor many years with
the happiest success in all complaints of the Liver, as well
as in other internal Diseases.

COUGHS, COLDS, and ASIIINIAS, of many Years
standing, have been Cured by ROBBEKP's BALSAMIC
ELIXIR, or COUGH DROPS.
COPY Of a LETTER from a Respedable DRUGGIST to
Mr. BUTLER.

SIR,
'T Have lately received from the use of your Rob-
AA berds's Balsamic Elixir, or Cough- Drops, the greatest
benefit which ail human preparation can .be the means 9f
conveying to distress : I was violently afflided with a cca gh,
cold, and fever; they continued so long, -and. shattered my
frame so excessively, that at every fit it was thought 1 could
scarce survive another; my foOd gave me no nourishment,
the flesh was wasted from my bones ; I was fur many days
delirious; all the medical assistance, around Okeitampton
failed.. A Lady of our town now suggested to Mrs. liazely
that remarkable cures had been efTedet.l by Robberds's cele-
brated lialsamie'Elixir, or Cough- Dr3/9s ; a trial was made
of it ; the first dose, by the blessing of God, gave' me very
considerable relief; from that time I became every day .syn.
sibly better; a single bottle restored ore to toy former perfect
health--a-recovery altogether above the expectation of my
family and friends. 1 think it my duty to make tires: tliats
as public as possible. - ' •
1 am, Sir, your humble Servant, •
