THE RECENT ECLIPSE.
pr,ci what did you think of the recent eclipse,
The subject, It seems, is on overy one's lips ;
I presume, like myself, that you could'nt see much,
On account of the gloom ofthe day being such.
But didn't your thoughts irresistibly run,
• On the bright shining fame of L. MOSES and SON ?
I frankly confess that my bus) thoughts strayed,
To MOSES and SON, who eclipse all the trade.
Yes, I thought of the manner this Dress-mart equips,
A manner so likely to cause an eclipse.
Messrs. MOSES, I thought, in the tailoring trade
Had cast competition completely in shade ;
And in proof of these sweeping assertions I'd show,
• The suit I obtained at their famous depot :
If you look at the waistcoat, you're forced to admire,
The taste of E. MOSES and SON in attire;
And the neatly cut trousers and elegant coat,
Do credit to MOSES and add to their note.
And hence I repeat, as I've heretofore done,
That none can eclipse Messrs. MOSES and SON.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which eitve.rs 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 a
gift, ttendant
which whe disap-
Pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; te n
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, isecomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less injury
10 the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
The mature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilateame,
,
axe productive of greater severity of misery to the human fr
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
htnatomY and Physiology' of the Peproductive 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 hsh oealth,
arid of the physical capabilities of which every
man uld
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
Irom their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap-
INYin to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
It'eqmently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reacts of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
!or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
fagots that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sygipattiy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelli,ent and practical physician, and to the
Medical man who can show by his posse sion of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is emitted to esteem and respect in his proles-
,io
x,nal pursuits, the utmost orelilence should be extended. Dr.
.MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
testify,r and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
'guarantee for his prof,ssional experienee, which has reference almost
'°lelY to the treatment of these diseases.

The object of this Association is totally to abolish the use of
climbing boys, who, notwithstanding the penalties to which those
employing them are subjected by the 3d and 4th Victoria, cap. 85,
are continually resorted to. This breach of the law is acquiesced in
by a large portion of the public, from a conviction of the utter im-
possitility in innumerable cases of cleansing a chimney or Rue with
the old machine. For the laudable purpose of furthering the objects
of the law by avoiding all necessity for its infringement, the Inge-
Moos and effective Ramoueur machine has been invented. This
invention consists of four brushes forraing a square head, which
by means of elastic springs contracts or expands, according to
the small or extended space in which the machine moves, thereby
creating an even pressure on all four sides of a chimney. The
rods attached to this head or brush are supplied at intervals with
universal spring joints, capable of taming even a right angle
and the whole is surmounted with a double revolving ball, having
also a universal spring joint, which leads the brush with certainty
past every angle, and into every corner, cleansing its route most
perfectly. The capabilities of this machine are beat demonstrated
by the fact, that it is exclusively used in the Government and
numerous public offices, while the patronage bestowed by a large
number of the nobility and gentry in eontinuing their annual con-
tracts to the patentees evidences their sense of its superiority, as well
as of the philanthropic views of the projectors. Detailed prospectuses
may be obtained, and a working model of the machine seen, at the
offices of the solicitor, F, Dolman, Esq., 39, Jermyn-street, St.
James's ; at Messrs. Barry and Co.'s, brokers, 7, lairchin-lane ; at
W. Heath, Esq.'s, Nag's Head-court, Gracechurch-street; and at the
principal office, 1, 'Wellington-street, London-bridge, Borough, where

ECRET MALADIES.
STreatment of CII. ALBERT, M.D., a Member of the Univer-
sity of Paris, Professor of Pharmacy, Apothecary to the Hospitals of
Paris, Professor of Medicine, and honoured with several Medals and
national rewards. No. 21, Rue liontorgeuil, Paris.
Numberless and well-authenicated cases which hitherto had been
considered as incurable by the Faculty, anti which in a short time
have given way under this treatment, are most unequivocal proofs of
its superiority over every other means as yet employed. It was for
a long period of time a desideratum to discover a mode of cure
adopted to all constitutions, and which should be free faun the bane-
ful effects of mercury. We are now arrived at the solution of this
problem by the discovery of a mode of treatment at once simple and
easy, and which, without any degree of exaggeration, we can affirm
to be infallible in the cure of all secret maladies, however inveterate
or of long standing. The method of cure, according to Dr. Albert, is
economical and easy, either at home or on a journey, causing not the
slightest derangement to the general health, and safe in all seasons
and in all climates.

31 One half the world are desolately single, and the oilier
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
hitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret on-
comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item
in the compact; it alone dignities the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY.—The por-
tion of this railway which is completed, namely from
Chester to Conway (about 45 miles) will, we under-
stand, be formally opened on the Ist December next.
The trip which the directors and officials took over
the line on Thursday last, was considered highly
satisfactory. The works are substantially con-
structed, and the permanent way is well consolidated.
Much interest was felt by the excursionists in pass-
ing through the tunnels under the great mountains
Penmaen Bach and Penmaen Maur. Between these
two mountains the railway runs for a portion of its
length upon a sea wall which has been so constructed
as thoroughly to resist the action of the swell from
the channel.
QUADRUPLE RAILS ON THE LONDON AND NORTH-
WESTERN RAILWAY.—After much discussion in the
board, during which there was considerable opposi-
tion to the measure, it has finally been resolved by
the directors of the London and North-Western
Railway that quadruple rails shall be laid down upon
their line between Camden-town and Watford, eigh-
teen miles down the line. The time, however, for
the commencement of these new, and as they appear
to us unnecessary works, has been postponed indefi-
nitely. Indeed the directors, although they have
finally determined upon the proposed addition being
made, have at the same time wisely resolved that the
works shall not commence until the money market as-
sumes a more encouraging aspect. The two engineers,
Mr. Stephenson and Mr. Locke, were both decidedly in
favour of the proposed addition to the existing rails,
but we have not heard how they propose to pass the
tunnels, which are barely sufficient for the four
rails at present laid down. During the discussion
which took place relative to the adopticn of the
quadruple rails, some of the parties recommended that
instead of quadruple rails being laid down to Wat-
ford, a new line of railway should be made from the
Tring branch of the Buckinghamshire railway down
to Camden Town, it being argued by those who put
forward this view, that such a new line would not
cost more, if indeed it cost so much as doubling the
line to Watford, while the advantage would be gained
of accommodating an entirely new and populous dis-
trict, namely, that which lies midway between the
London and North-Western and the Great Western

Railways. The scheme, however, for the quadruple
rails, as we have said, was adopted, though not una-
nimously, nor without some very lengthy and occa-
sionally warm discussion.
SYSTON AND PETERBOROUGH RAILWAY.—This
railway, the contractors for which had great difficul-
ties to contend with but a short time since, is now in
a state of rapid advancement. The embankment
through Lord llarborough's park has been completed,
and is ready for " ballast ;" the cutting through
Mans and Gale-hill are through, and are of great
depth and length. The temporary pile bridges over
the Oakham Canal will be pulled down during this
month, and the canal will be filled up where the line
crosses. Three engines are already upon the line for
the purpose of removing ballast from Freeby-hill to
its destination.—Leicester Mercury.

PERSONAL GRACES.—The countenance is rendered
additionally pleasing by the well-arranged curl, the

nothing can equal the uff,ct of ]Lowland's Macassar Oil,
on either natural or artificial hair, rendering it so
admirably soft that it will lie in any direction, producing
beautifully flowing curls, and, by the transcendent lustre
it imparts, rendering the 110,10-dress truly enchainincr.
Rowland's Kalydor is a preparation of unparalleled"
efficiency in improving and beautifying the skin and
complexion, preserving them from every vicis,i,nde of
the weather; and Rowand's Odonto. or Pearl Dentifrice,
is alike invaluable for its beautifying and preservative
effects on the teeth and gums. Caution—lt is mcsssary
to see that the word " Rowland's" precedes the name of
tho article on the wrapper of each, as spurious imitations
are abroad.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] DEBILITATED CONSTITU-
TIONS, DISORDERED LIVER, BILE, AND INDIGESTION,
CURED BY Hom.owAy's Pru.s.—The good effects pro-.
paced by this salutary medicine are really extraordinary,
and speak volumes in favour of its excellence. in the cure
of impaired digestion, bik, diseases of the liver and
chest. The benefi's derived from the use of Holloway's
pills in these cfunplaints are permanent, as the whole
system is completely renovated, by inducing a healthy
action of the liver, strengthening the organs of digestion,
and promoting a free respiration. Persons ruff,,ring from
any of these disorders should immediately have recourse
to this established remedy, to insure a safe, certain, and
speedy cure. Sold by all vendors of medicines; and at I'ro

fully tn:naged during the past two years, and that
there is a general disposition to believe in the safety
of its affairs. It appears also from these advices that
" several" deputations from public bodies, in addition
to the one headed by the Mayor, have left for Lon-
don for the purpose of communicating with the
Government. Of course, in the present state of
things, business in the cotton-market is extremely
dull, a decline of id. to id. per pound having taken
place from Friday's rates. The corn-market is also
lower. _

Reports were in current circulation to-day of the
suspension of two other Liverpool banks, but con-
cerning one of them an unequivocal contradiction
was given, while, as regards the other, the circum-
stances which transpired respecting it were not such,
in the absence of information from Liverpool, as to
justify in any way the assumption of its having
stopped.

It appears that the capital of the Royal Bank is
larger than the amount (600,0001.) stated yesterday,
an increase having been made to it by the issue of
2,000 additional shares of 1001. each, one•half of
which were paid up, or appointed to be paid up, on
the Ist instant, the remainder to be paid on the Ist of

December. This issue, it is understood, was made a
few months back, about the time when, the panic of
April and the deputation that then waited upon the
Government having been forgotten, speculation had
again resumed so much confidence in that town as
to cause the prices of railway shares of all descriptions
to advance 30 or 40 per cent. in the course of a single
week.

A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Thomas, Son,
