By the most simple, delightful, and fragrant Compound !

Its mode of application is fraught with pleasure ; many thou-
sand cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trifling ex-
pense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary
to induce the sufferer to make trial, Kings, Lords, and Com-
mons have used it. The Lords of the Treasury have sanctioned
its use. Their late Majesties, the Duchess of Kent, the most
eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners—with that gigantic
balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated
Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grimstone's Eye Snuff,"
for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eyes and
Head. G. J. Guthrie, Esq., F. R.S. See J. B. Lachfield,
Esq.'s Letter, 'Whitehall. Dr. Thomas. Dr. Andrews calls
it a national blessing—see his Reports touching its utility. The
late Mr. Abernethy, with many others, recommend Grim-
stone's Eye Snuff, and call it " Man's best Friend," and the
" Student's Vade Mecum."—See the many thousand Letters
of Testimonies, of undoubted medical authority, with ethers of
the first respectability.
Abstract of a letter from Mrs. L. S. Brewer, Dress-maker
3, Edge-terrace, Kensington Gravel Pits.
To Mr. Grimstone, Inventor of Eye-Snuff.

Dec. 5, 1840.
Sir,—l have been a sufferer for seven years, both eyes being
so swollen as to cause blindness. Among the many Medical
Gentlemen who attended me was the famous oculist, Dr.
Alexander ; indeed, I do believe my case was beyond all their
skill. " Physic, Bleeding, Blistering, with a seton, of all
kinds of Lotions, but no relief," till chancing one day, being led
by your house in 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, my guide
inquired if I had tried your Eye-Snuff, on which I purchased
t Is. 3d. Canister, opened it in the shop—took some, and was
greatly relieved before I reached my home. I car. with truth
assert, and make oath if required to do so, that it was your Eye-
Snuff cured me. Shal be happy to answer any inquiry.
I am, Sir, yours gratefully,
L. S. BREWER.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tior.s, which fer some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference by the wdinary practitioner. To enter into the
details oithese affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN.

Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and
Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as rninnte as possible in the detail of their cases,
—as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge-
neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the
communication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta-
tion Fee of 11.," without which no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied en.

FATAL ACCIDENT. Early on Wednesday
morning last an accident, unhappily attended with the loss
of life of one individual, and the serious injury of two or
three others, occurred on the Birmingham and Gloucester
Railway, by the blowing out of a plug from the boiler of
one of the bank engines, on the inclined plane near Broms-
grove station, by which Mr. William Creuse, the engineer
of locomotives, was so dreadfully scalded that he died in
about 24 hours after. Two or three other persons, who
were on the engine and tender at the time, were also more
or less injured, but they are all in a fair way of recovery.
On Friday evening an inquest was held at the Cross Ho-
tel, Bromsgrove, on the body of Mr. Creuze, when the
Jury, after consulting for about half an hour. returned a
verdict of " Accidental death," with a deodand of 251.
upon the engine. Mr. Creuze was a young gentleman of
high attainments and great promise in his profession. He
was educated at Cambridge, and was generally beloved
and respected by the officers and servants of the Cons-
pany. His brother, who holds a situation under Govern-
ment at Woolwich Dockyard, arrived after the inquest on
Friday evening,
Accidents in Hy de Park are now of daily
occurrence, principally from high-bred horses having inex-
perienced riders or drivers. On Thursday two of the
former were thrown off, bur, not seriously hurt. On Wed-
nesday a young lad, servant to Prince Paul Lieven, fell
with the horn, and was so much injured in the left thigh
as rendered it necessary he should be carried into St.
George's Hospital. The same day a groom of the Earl
of Liverpool was taken to the hospital with a broken leg.
A horse in a cabriolet fell in consequence of kicking over
the traces, and was much hurt ; the driver, a gentleman,
was pitched out, but fortunately escaped. A few days pre-
viously Miss Reynold, daughter of Captain Reynold, riding
a spirited mare, was run away with. The animal started
from Cumberland-gate, and took the whole line to Apsley
House ; the lady was thrown over the iron posts near the
statue of Achilles, and seriously hurt, but no limb was
broken. A Mr. Artis, a poulterer in Moteomb-street, was
on Wednesday thrown out of his cart at Hyde Park corner
and thence taken to the hospital.
