SPENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to he the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it through the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change.
While other dyes destroy the hair by their pernicious properties,
this liquid promotes its growth, nourishing the roots to the latest
period of life. Pe sons who have ban deceived by preparations
which have a horrible stanch (d Ingerorts to the head), troublesome
in their application, and unsatisfactory in their colour, will find

TO THE BRITANNIA TUBE BRIDGE.
Thou mighty tube that span'st the sea,
At Menat's far-famed straits
My wonder-stricken muse on thee
With duteous honour waits.

How mighty looks thy iron frame,
While ocean yawns below ;
Thou wilt immortalize the name
Of him who formed thee so.
To Rhodes' huge colossal form,
Successor thou shalt be ;
A monster mid'st the ocean's storm—
The wonder of the sea.
Well might thy builder's skill be praiSed,
While 'mid our hopes and fears,
Thy vast majestic tube was raised
Upon its mighty piers.
Enormous tube! for such thou art,
Thy form so vastly planned ;
Calls to my mind that princely Mart,
Which Moses' raised on land.

?gay do not scorn to be corn ared
With Moses' vast Depot—
A greater Mart was never reared—
And I'm alloweA to know.

But what is giant bulk alone,
When rightly understood?
'Tis nought, unless some use is shown—
Some end to public good.

The Mart of Moses, like to thee,
Was thus designed to act ;
And every article we see
Establishes the fact.

No equal bath there ever been
To Moses' dress display ;
And proofs of this thou must have seen
Upon thy launching day.
Didst thou not note, on either shore,
The gentlemen attired
In Moses' dress, which more and more,
Deserves to be admired?

I noticed them : for there they were,
In tens of thousands, too ;
And oft amid the exciting stir,
I turned me round to view.
Great tube (and here I placed my hand
Slap-bang upon my heart)
May'st thou retain as firm a stand
As Moses' noted Mart.
