PROTECTOR FIRE OFFICE,
• Old Jewry, Feb- 1836.
THE DIRECTORS of this OFFICE feel it
right to state, that the Protector Company- continue, as
usual, to accept and renew Insurances at their respective Offices in
the Old Jewry, Regent-street, and High-street, Borough, and
through their Agents in the country.
By virtue of an agreement entered into with the Phoenix Fire
Insurance Company, the Directors are about to call a Meeting of
the Proprietors to consider of the union of their Business and Inte-
rests with the Phoenix Company, upon the plan of an enlargement
of the Partnership of the latter Company by the accession of the
Directors:and many Shareholders of the Protector Company.
This notification is deemed necessary, in consequence of the un-
warrantable steps taken by the Managers of another Office, whose
overtures were declined, and who have since commenced a hostile
attack upon the interests of the Protector Company.
The Directors of the Protector Company beg therefore to cau-
tion their Proprietors, Friends and Insured on this subject, as no
intention is entertained by them of dispersing the respectable con-
nexion with which the public patronage has favoured them.
WILMER HARRIS, Sec.

CURE OF RHEUMATISM.

This is a most useful work, it contains twelve synchronistic
tables of ancient history, than which nothing can be more
serviceable either to the student, or to those in more advanced life,
who look at history philosophically, and wish to see the progress and
condition of various nations at the same epochs."—British Mag.

ANOTHER Proof of the efficacy of BtAIR'S
GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.

" This is to certify, that I, John Riley, in the employ of Messrs.
Pugh and Findlater, of Salisbury-wharf, Strand, coal-merchants,
was afflicted with Rheumatism in my legs and arms, and suffered so
much that I was unable to follow my employment, and was obliged
to go to the hospital,where I remained for thirteen weeks, and was at
last discharged, and that a short time after, having taken a cold, my
painful complaint returned, when a lady who, knew me, and the
suffering I had endured, persuaded me to try BLAIR'S GOUT
AND RHEUMATIC PILLS, which had been of the most essen-
tial service to her; and that after taking only about two boxes, I
have quite recovered, and much regret I had not heard of them
before, as I ain convinced they would have saved me many weeks of
-suffering, and, what is of great importance to my family, many
weeks' loss of time ; and further believing this excellent remedy
will be of great public importance, I hereby give my attestation of
its efficacy, for the encouragement of all who may be afflicted with
this dreadfully painful disease. Witness my hand, this 30th day of
May, 1835. " JOHN RILE Y."

CIUBEBS, with SARSAPARILLA,
STIRLING REES' ESSENCE.—The vast and increas-
ing sale, from the recommendation of the highest medical charac-
ters, as well as those who have experienced its salubrious and bene-
ficial effects, proves:its great success and superiority over every other
preparation, in being the most effectual remedy ever discovered for
the cure of strictures, pains in the loins and kidneys, heat, irrita-
tion, and other disorders of the urinary organs, frequently removing
every symptom of disease in three or four days. It contains, in a
concentrated state, all the efficacious parts of the cubeb, chemically
combined with sarsaparilla, and other choice ingredients, which
render it invaluale to those afflicted with syphilitic symptoms, scor-
butic eruptions, and all diseases arising from an impure state of the
blood. In case of debility and nervous depression of spirits, it has
been taken with the most decided benefit. A regular perseverance
in its use has invariably been found to improve digestion, and give
muscular strength, energy, and vigorous health to the whole frame.
The most delicate female may take it with perfect safety.
Prepared only by J. W. Stirling, 86, High-street, Whitechapel,
from whom it can be sent to any part of the world, upon enclosing
the amount, in bottles at 4s. 6d., 10s., 205., and 30s. each.
The Proprietor being apprised of several unprincipled medicine
venders who, when applied to for this remedy, substitute, under the
name of Sarsaparilla Cubebs, &c., an inferior article of their own
make, feels it his duty to say that it is absolutely necessary before
purchasing to see the name of " J. W. Stirling" is engraved NI the
government stamp.

yOLAND'S SPECIFIC SOLUTION, for the
cure of all disorders of the kidneys, loins, bladder, and
urinary organs in both sexes, is universally allowed by all medical men
who have seen its effects, and by those who have taken it, to be by far
the best, the safest, and the only remedy ever discovered for these com-
plaints, frequently curing in a few hours, after other remedies hp.ve
failed. By a peculiar chemical process (known only to the proprietor),
combining the different ingredients, which, acting on each other, renders
the whole more efficacious, is the cause of Yoland's Specific being su-
perior to all other medicines.
Sold, in sealed packets, at 2s. 9d. and 4s. 6d. each, with plain directions,
so that individuals may cure themselves with secrecy and safety.
This medicine has never been known to fail ; but to prove its efficacy,
should it, from any accidental circumstances, not make a perfect cure,
the Proprietor pledges himself (on application being made to his agents,
to place the party under the care of a respectable Surgeon until cured)
free of all expense.

ALSAM OF SPERMACETI. Asthma,
Shortness of Breath, Weazing Coughs, Colds, soreness,
ghtness and oppression of the Chest ; and most affections of the
Chest and Lungs, relieved in ten minutes, by taking one dose of
'WOODHOUSE'S BALSAM OF SPERMACETI OR PEC-
TORAL COUGH DROPS. Persons doubting the efficacy of
this Medicine, may take a dose in the Proprietor's shop before they
purchase. The Proprietor earnestly recommends a trial of these
Drops to persons afflicted with the above complaints ; but he does
not introduce them as being an infallible cure (as many do), but is
warranted in asserting their efficacy from the extensive relief
afforded in numerous cases of the above description. Constitutional
Coughs of three, four, and more years standing, have been cured in
the course of a week by the use of these- Drops. In the Hooping
and Chin Cough it will be found equally valuable, the virtues of
Spermaceti having been known for centuries, it will be needless to
make a comment upon a Balsam obtained from so valuable an article.
Two tea spoonfuls of the Balsam is equal to one ounce of Sperma-
ceti—it will at all times relieve the most violent Consumptive
Cough. In Bottles Is. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d. and 10s. 6d. each.

TESTIMONIALS.
Opinion of the Editor.Of the Albion, 12th Sept., 1835 ; —I. We hare
witnessed that Grlmstone's Eye Snuff' has justly excited such notice in
almost every quarter of the globe, as to induce Don G. Lobe, Consul,
&c , &c., &c.. and exclusive dealer in drugs and chemical products, at the
Havannah, in the Isle of Cuba, to so tell the sole agency in that quarter, to
which lie has been appointed by Mr. Grimstone, through the medium
of Don Pedro Ortiz de Zugasti, 12, Artillery-place, Finsbury, the Spanish
Consul-General to the Court of Great Britain Attested, &c., before two
witnesses.
The following is a copy of Don G. Lobe's letter.
Mr. W. Grirnstone, London. Havannah, 28th April 1835.
Sir,—My house, G. Lobe, doing business exclusively in drugs and che-
mical products in the Island of Cuba, and this part of America, it will not surprise you to hear, that I have known of your excellent Eye Snuff
for the sight, and removal of pains in the head, &c. &c , for some time,
and that I should have procured it by mcaus of my correspondentsi n
London, Messrs. Pinto and. Co., 36, Crutched-friars. It has provedouch
an unfailing and certain remedy, that it has given universal satisfaction;
and the demand I have for it, with its undoubted efficacy, has called my
attention to its practical effect. Ido consider it to the interest of my
house to solicit the sole agency for the Isle of Cuba ; not doubting your ac-
ceptance of my terms, as I shall always send the cash with my orders, as in
this case. I have enclosed you a bill five days' sight, on Charles Buttar,
Esq , 15, Angel-court, Throginorton street, London, for which you will
please to send 500 cases of your celebrated Eye Snuff. It will further oblige
me, if you will hive some of your testimonials translated into Spanish.
Sir, I am your's faithfully,

This preparation is a compound of two of, the most valuable me-
dicines in the vegetable kingdom. It combines the stomachic pro-
perties, of the Ginger With the aromatic and better qualities of the
Chamoinile Flowers: ' The proprietor earnestly recommends this
essence to all those suffering as hereafter mentioned %Al he asks iff,
a fair trial, for he can assert, with the greatest confidence, that he,
never knew of its failure in any of the cases it is recommended for,
excepting where it has been neglected to be properly persevered in,
for indigestion, sensation of fulness, pain and oppression after meals,
loss of appetite, 'whether arising from excess -or want of tone and
energy of the digestive organs; also for rheumatism, gout, spasms,
cramps, hysterics, flatulence, in immoderate perspiration, nervous,
hypochondriacal and bilious affections, heartburn, languor, general
debility, or a delicate state of health, whether the result of long
illness, or constitutional-weakness ; it is certain in affording instant
relief in the most violent sick headache. Forty &ips of this Es-
sence is equal to half a pint of Chamomile tea. , -

AN HISTORICAL and PRACTICAL
TREATISE on SYPHILIS, its Consequences, on Stric.
tures, Eruptions, Nodes, and Nocturnal Pains, so frequently mis-
taken for Rheumatism. These subjects are illustrated by a variety
of highly interesting cases, together with the miseries of a secret
vice. so long and so unhappily pursued by the youth of both sexes.
In the one it will be found an unfailing source of barrenness, in
the other have its ravages fatally developed by a distressing state
of debility which, if not timely remedied, terminates in impotency
these are its remote and ultimate effects ; whilst Consumption,
Loss of Muscular Power, and various other complaints, usually
characterise the earlier stages of these distressing diseases, for the
Cure of which the Author has laid down a plan of treatment which,
during his experience of upwards of thirty-five years' extensive
practice, has invariably proved successful ; with concluding remarks
on the evils resulting from attempts at self cure.

The CHAIRMAN gave, ,'Pith a suitable eulogiurn on his per-
sonal character and princ.4oles, and upon the manner in
whiCh he had discharged his par jalnentary duties—
" Richard Potter, Esq., our rOsksected Representative in
Parliament."—Three times three arm loud applause.
Mr. POTTER then presented himself, qua was received with
enthusiastic applause. He spoke as fo.lloSys —Mr. Mayor
and Gentlemen, electors of Wigan—The oftener the consti-
tuent body and their Member meet together, t:se better ; they
are far more likely to come to a good understaiatibg ; and I
am sure the best results will fellow. When I Est had
the honour of meeting the inhabitants of Wigan, I took isn op-
portunity of adverting to the near approach of the Municipal
elections; and I also took the liberty most earnestly to advise
those gentlemen who were entitled to vote under the new
Corporation Act, and who entestained liberal opinions, to form
themselves into a firm bond of ins ion for the purpose of ,elect-
ing fit and proper persons as councillors, and to let no cir-
cumstance whatever induce them to break it. I most heartily
rejoice that this course was adopted; and we are this day as-
sembled to congratulate each other on the gratifying result.
Indeed I consider the principal object of this :social meeting is
to celebrate the glorious victory effected on the Stith of last
mouth. The result of. that day has been to place those in
the post of honour, who, for a long series of yeari, were in-
sulted and scoffed at—whose Motives havebeen inisrepresented,
and characters calumniated--and who have been coneideresi as
wholly unfit to take any part in the government of the town in
which they have so long resided. The great value and im-
portance of this event is, that it is the triumph of the " rights
of the people." The consequences which will follow from the
election of municipal officees.euch as you have chosen, will
have a beneficial influence on the conduct of several Members
of Parliament during the session which will so soon commence ;
and whenever a dissolution takes place, the effect will be still
more extended, by the hands of the Ministers being strength-
ened.—( Hear.) r Dissenters of every denomination were in
general excluded from corporate ofiices. In Liverpool, for
instance, the Dissenter and the Catholic were a proscribed
race : now, all are admitted without reference to their reli-
gious belief; their only qualification being their fitness for the
office. The great addition to the Liberal cause, resulting
from the late municipal elections, has been effected in the most
orderly and peaceable manner. There have been none of the
tumults and rioting which used to: take place at elections of
Members of Parliament before the Reform Act.—( Hear.)
Gentlemen, it is impossible at a meeting like this, and when
Parliament is so soon to assemble, to avoid referring to the
subject, and to feel some degree of aneiety as to the measures
which will be brought forward. That the Tories will attempt
to regain power, is, I think, very probable ; and the intriguers
will again be in motion; but I have no fear of their succeed-
ing, provided the same union of purpose takes place which so
happily prevailed during the whole of last session. Yes, Mr.
Mayor, we, at its very commencernept, found out- that by union
we could do mach—without it, nolhing. I will venture to
predict, from what I know of the Reform Membere, that we •
shall beat the Tories, and keep them out of power; and that
those other reforms which the country has a right to expect
will be carried through the House of Commons.—( Cheiers.)
Whenever the proceedings of Parliament are spoken of, Ire-
land rushes to one's mind. That country surely has a right
to her Corporation Bill as well as England and Scotland ; she
she is a component part of the British empire, and entitled to
equal laws. At present the Corporations are the great sup-
port of the Orange faction, which so long has been the bane
of Ireland, and tends to the utter destruction of her peace,
happiness, and prosperity. The conduct of the present Irish .
Government is beyond all praise, for justice is now dispensed
with a strict but an impartial hand. The Bill to regulate the
Irish Church revennes, and apply the surplus So the moral and
religious education of all classes, will, I doubt ,not, be again
brought forward; and I cannot help thinking that" during the
interval which has elapsed since the ckse of the last session,
the public mind of England has undergone a considerable
change ; men begin to reflect upon the immense cost o.c the
Irish establishment to the country, and that the .resources of
the empire ought no longer to be expended in maintaining e
sinecure Church.--( Cheer's.) The appalling scene which took
place last year at Rathcormac has been renewed this year,
though not, it is true, attended, with such ,tal effects.; two
however, leave been murdered in the attempt to collect
tithes. Surely an end must be put to such tragedies ?
I had intended to have directed your attention at greater
length to the measures which it was probable would be brought
forward in the ensuing seession of Parliament ; but in Mr.
Spring Rice's speech at Cambridge, which I have read since
I came to Wigan, there is what may be called a ministerial
manifesto, to which, with your permission, I will shortly ad-
vert.__( Hear.) The Right Honourable the Chancellor of the
Exchequer says.—" We are then to proceed, and succeed too,
I hope and trust, and as I believe we shall, in the great work
of political improvement. We, for instance, have to remedy
the still existing grievances to which the great dissenting
bodies of this country are now subject." The satisfaction I
feel at this communication is damped, because I fear ministers
are not prepared to abolish church rates entirely, but to pro-
pose to Parliament to take 250,000/. per annum from the
public money, to keep in repair the fabric of the church. I
feel convinced this will not be satisfactory to the country, and
to the Dissenters in particular; and if proposed, it shall have
my uncompromising opposition.—( Cheers.) The Right Hon.
Gent. gees on to say—‘, We must proceed to consider also,
and on the same principle of firmness and decision grounded
in justice, the question of tithes in England. We must pro-
ceed in the great work of reform of our courts of equity. We
must give to the people of England a better, a cheaper, and a
more effectual administration of justice." If Ministers suc-
ceed in reforming the Court of Chancery, they will deserve
the warmest gratitude of the country. How many families
have been ruined by the expense and delays of this court A
suit in Chancery has hitherto, in a vast number of cases,
lasted a man's life ; and broken hearted suitors have died be-
fore justice has been administered. lam happy to say that
poor Ireland is not forgotten. Mr. Spring Rice says—" 'We
must, as far as it is in our power to do, improve and tranquillize
Ireland. Now I say, Ireland must be tranquillized ; and I
say further, that the object we had in view in our measure of
last session, was no less the tranquillity of that country than to
make an adequate provision for the Protestant Church."—l
very much like the tone of this document, which may be con-
sidered as an epitome of the king's speech which will be deli-
vered next week. I beg to assure you that the same vigilant
attention which I have in three Sessions of Parliament given
to the important questions which have come before it, shall be
continued. lam most anxious to give my humble support to
the present Ministers ; and be assured I shall only be induced
to oppose them, if in my conscience I think their measures arc
not conducing to the public good, and consequently to tho
good of those whom I have the honour to represent. I thank
you for the confidence you repose in me, and for the favour-
able construction you have put on my conduct since I became
yohr Member. I have nbw (satd the Hon. Member in con-
clusion) to beg your permission to propose a toast which I am
sure will be received with-that enthusiasm which it deserves.
I mean your worthy Mayor.—( Hear.) , I am sure the Council
I made a judicious choice when they appointed my friend to be
chief magistrate of this borough. He comes from a good
stock. His excellent father I have known for a great number
of years, and have frequently struggled with him in the cau_se-
of liberty and of the people. I rejoice that his son follows the
sine course. I propose-4, The good health of the Mayor of
Wigan."
Mr. POTTER was loudly cheered at the conclusion of his
speech, which was liitened to with marked attention; and
the toast was pledged with'great cordiality.
The CHAIRMAN briefly returned thanks, and concluded by
giving " The independent 'electors of the borough of Man-
chester, and the health of Mark Philips, Esq., and the Right
Hon. C. P. Thomson."—( Loud cheers.)
Mr. Pintoes rose to return thanks, and was received with
loud applause. He gave a retrospect of the acts of the last
session, and commented upon each, and dwelt especially upon
the two leading measures of the session, the Municipal Reform
Bill and the Irish Tithe Bill. Respecting the former, he said
it was, in its present shape, by no means such a measure as
could have been wished ; but he would ask the present meet-
ing whether, under all the circumstances, his lion. Friend Mr.
Potter and himself, and the other Hon. Members with whom

dley had voted on the occasion, would have been justified in
;hrowing out the Bill, because it did not come down from the

House of Lords in the same efficient state in which it bad on-
tored that House from the Commons.—(Hear.) It yet pos-
sessed some power of doing good : the spectacle which their
own borough presented to them—of a Mayor and the greater
part of a Corporation professing liberal principles, being
elected under it—this was evidence that the Bill was not en-
tirely powerless for good purposes.—( Hear.) And the people
had at I,.ast this pledge on the part of the Government, that
they, equally with the people themselves, did not deem the
present measure a final one. Experience of the present mea-
sure would enable the corporations and the burgesses to make
many valuable suggestions for an improved Act. They ought,
having had that experfence, to make strong representations to
the Government on the subject; and he would answer co* his
Right Hon. Colleague, whom the company had been pleas
to include in the last toast, that as far at least as lie was con.,
concerned, those appeals would not be made in vain. The
speaker then complimente4 Mr. Potter, than whom, he said,
the House of Commons did not contain one individual more
solicitous on all occasions to forward their interests and repre-
sent the wishes of his constituents, or one who VVIIS more ready
•
'to make a sacrifice of time, health, and strength, in the dis-
charge of his duty.—(Hea_r.) His Hon. Friend had alluded
to the work cut out for the next session of Parliament ;and
