TO THE LIDIIB.
This lady had the following lettar inserted in the "Times" news_
paper on Aug. 7, 1546. Reader, remember, this letter was put tat
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of Ne. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this eppor.
tuulty of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair en her head, after using itabout four moiths,
and the whole of her hair's much stronger and more luxuriant that
lever was before the baldness appeared.
"Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to:the virtues of Mr. G.'s ,
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
ah 11 s. bottle if tkey were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume iti far
beyond any to her taste. She win feel a pleasure is answering any
iady of respectability to the above fact..-3, Swan street, Borough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w
drops en the crown of the head occasionally. every week, will pre-
rent
the hair from coming away with the comb, mace it strong, aid
prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the I
hair brilliancy, causing it to,curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this deligbtful product of the
most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence; its refreshing
odour removes headache and makes it a most necessfau companion
to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour tea or twelve drops
on the grown of the head; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an
hoar. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
hair on children's heads in a few appplications. If used on infants'
heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
laraphlet of testimonials. .

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil. which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, en
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to tko human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more Importance than the preservation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by his posse lion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify. and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
marantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

TUE RUSSELL-COURT GRAVEYARD. - Notwith-
standing the efforts made by the inhabitants of Russell-
court, Cross-court, and places adjacent, to obtain the
suppression of the above grave-yard, the interments
continue as frequent as ever. It was stated a week
since, that the Bishop of London, yielding to the urgent
remonstrances made to him, had promised to issue his
monition for the closing of the ground. This promise,
however, has not been fulfilled, in consequence of repre-
sentations made to him by the persons interested in the
nuisance, to the effect that the stench arises not from the
dead bodies but from the offal and dirt thrown into the
place by persons residing around. This statement is
denied most strongly by the neighbours, and it is to he
hoped that the truth will be discovered before any more
injurious effects shall have been produced.

a rapid voyage of 11i days from New York, whence
she took her departure on the 10th inst., and from
Halifax on the 13th. The Europa had a good
voyage out, of 15 days, from Liverpool to New
York.

The steam-ship America, Captain Leitch, hence
for Boston, arrived at Halifax on the 10th.
The American steamer Herman, which left
Southampton on the 12th ult., arrived at New York
on the 7th inst. During the passage she ran out of
provisions and fuel, and had to put into Boston on
the 4th, to obtain the nece3sary supplies. The
Washington arrived at New York on the Bth, from
Southampton, after a nineteen days' run.
The political accounts are not important.
Congress has as yet done no business of general in-
terest, its discussions having been confined to inci-
dental and merely formal matters. A resolution has
been adopted by the House of Representatives, in-
structing the proper committee to report a Bill abo-
lishing the slave trade in the district of Columbia. It
contained a preamble denouncing, in very strong
terms, the general principle involved in slavery, and,
of course, created very considerable excitement.
The Southern members of Congress, under the
lead of Mr. Calhoun, have held a consultation over
this meditated invasion of their rights, and have ap-
pointed a committee to prepare a suitable address to
the people of the Southern States. It is understood
that Mr. Calhoun is engaged in writing this docu-
ment, and that he will put forth his utmost strength
in an attempt to convince the South it has nothing to
hope from the justice or forbearance of the North,
and that its safety lies in being prepared and ready to
maintain a separate and independent existence.
He will not, in this appeal, however, be seconded
by a majority of his own Committee, nor can he
make any impression upon the people of the south.
The movement creates no anxiety, and is rather a
topic of ridicule than of serious apprehension.
The steamer Europa, which arrived on the 31st
ult., brought a copy of the Postal Treaty as concluded
by the British authorities and the American Minister
in London. It was sent in to the Senate at once, and
was immediately ratified by that body. The Europa,
therefore, takes back the treaty, ratified by the
Senate, having the full force of law.
A Bill has been for some days under discussion in
the United States Senate, of which the object is to
establish reciprccal free-trade between the United
States and Canada. No action has yet been had upon
it. It meets with considerable opposition, especially
from the agricultural sections, and is warmly sup-
ported in other quarters. A similar Bill, intended to
effect the same general object has been introduced
into the Canadian Provincial Parliament.
The Secretary of the Treasury has issued an elabo-
rate circular in regard to the appraisal of imported
goods under the present system of ad valorem duties.
Its purpose is to guard against fraudulent valuations.
The excitement in regard to the discovery of gold
in California continues undiminished. All the ac-
counts received, official or otherwise, confirm the
statements originally made concerning the extent and
purity of the deposits, and so far as observed, no
counter statements have been received from any
quarter. Great numbers have already embarked, or are
preparing to do so, for the favoured regions, and among
them are very many of the most energetic, intelligent,
and respectable of the citizens. The Government,
meantime, has taken no steps in the matter.
The cholera has entirely disappeared from New
York, but has broken out in New Orleans, where it
has raged and still rages with intensity. The number
of deaths there has reached a hundred per day. Many
persons are leaving the city in fear, and business is
greatly retarded.
The message of the Governor of Pennsylvania was
sent in to the Legislature of that state on Monday
last.

The Postmaster-General had issued an official
notice to the public of the ratification of the postal
treaty between the United States and Great Britain.
It is as follows:

THE POSTAL CONVENTION OR TREATY.
Convention between her Majesty and the United Stet( s
of America for the improvement of the communica•
tions by post between their respective territories.
