iIIkIEDICAL ADVICE and PATRONAGE.
Each succeeding year proves, more extensively than
Lts predecessor, the advantage of using the PATENT
BRANDY, diluted with water, as a substitute for Beer or
other fermentable liquors—a recommendation strongly urged
by the principal members of the faculty; and never more im-
portant than at the present season, when the natural indulgence
an the use of fruit, renders the choice of a safe and wholesome
beverage an act of great importance. The Certificates of its
purity given by many eminent Chemists after analyaation, have
been frequently submitted to the public since its introduction
in 1829 ; and from its established reputation, and general adop-
beti 11 all ranks and classes, the• time cannot be far distant

IBATEMAN'S CONCENTRATED PRE-
PARATION OF RIO NEGRO or is one of the most powerful medicinal agents for renovating
the Constitution which has ever been introduced to the Public.
It sweetens the blood, corrects a bad habit of body, removes pimples
and blotches, and is an infallible remedy for Scrofula, Scurvy,
Erysipelas, Secondary Symptoms, and all tnose disorders originating
in impurities of the blood, whether hereditary or otherwise, and
particularly those arising from the long-continued use of mercury.
This Preparation, which is the result of many years' laborious
research and experiment, is thus noticed by Dr. HANCOCK, in
his Philosophical Papers, read before the "Medico-Botanical So-
ciety :"
" It is a fact yet unheeded or unknown in Europe, that this species
of Sarsa, the Rio Negro, does manifest a peculiar power in healing
ulcers in all parts of the body, and removing a multitude of chronical
affections. It is scarcely less remarkable for its power in proving
the condition and babit of body, and therefore it is not imwithout
reason esteemed a great restorative; but the narrow views of the
Faculty have tended to restrict its use to syphilitic affections, and
there appears to be no comprehension of its general utility in alter-
g the condition of the blood and amending the habit of body, as it
does most manifestly in scrofulous,consumptive, and dropsical habits,
and cachexies--foul or perverted states of the humours, &c."

soil, exceedingly productive, and adapted to the cultivation of
white straw and green crops in all their varieties. About 210
acres are situate in the parishes of Tyd St. Giles and Tyd St.
Mary, and the remainder, which is recently enclosed marsh
land, is situate in Winglan' between the counties of Norfolk
and Lincoln, and bounded by the Sutton-bridge-road, over
which the Norwich and Birmingham snail and other coaches
pass daily. These newly enclosed and powerful lands are ex-
tra-parochial, and free from rates and tithes. The tenants are
most respectable and industrious, and possess ample means, the
judicious application of which has induced that high state of
cultivation which prevails on the property. The present ren-
tal, which amounts to 1,1841. is decidedly low. The leases
will expire at Michaelmas, 1841. The estate is situate at the
mouth of the Nene, which, from recent improvements, has
become one of the finest navigable rivers in the kingdom ; thus,
besides the advantage of excellent roads and superior horns
markets, there is an inexpensive and easy transit by water for
produce and manure.

nexed may he obtained of Edward Jackson, Esq., solicitor,

inn; of Messrs. Watford and Sons, solicitors, Bolton-street,

Should trade be dull and times go rough,
Oh, give me then a pinch of snuff;
Give ice m.y box a pinch to take,
E'en when I'ra pleased for pleasure's sake.
When fortune's frowns disturb my mind,
And friends appear to grow unkind ;
Relief I seek within my box,
My system is quite orthodox.
When a true friend perchance I meet,
I cheerfully his person greet,
A hearty " How do you do ?" takes place,
IV hen, lo ! my snuff-box shows its faco
My pulveriforous box supplies
A recipe for weakly eyes;
That man must be a silly goose
Who thoughtlessly condemns its use.
If my proboscis could but speak,
'Twould often say—the dose repeat;
Each grateful sneeze and tittilatien
Excites a frequent iteration.
Then here's toy glass in which I toast,
Success to that which I love most ;
Reader, I pray don't think me bluff—
Mark well the hirt !—'tiS GILIMSTONE'S Snuff.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the oidinary practitioner. To enter into the
details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and phvsical,
which are sure t• follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying thattthere 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.
•

The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away,
and fast approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of
some disease, which for want of a careful investigation of its
real cause, has been set down to the score of consumption,
will, on perusing this work be astonished to find that in nine-
tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish
of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes,
&c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in
certain destructive habits, practised by youth muck more fre-
quently than is at all suspected.
The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds temperarily, at least
the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this
work, be directed, and very muck assisted in investigating and
detecting the too often concealed practices so often introduced
into schools, whereby the health and ultimLtely the lives of his
pupils are sure to be compromised, unless the evil be checked
in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through
the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard
whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to
attack any of his young charges, what the real cause of such
attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in
its incipient state.
The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character, is at once
' concentrated the twofold relation of parent and instructor, will
here be directed as to the nature of those habits, to which
youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the
disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if
not relinquished.
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 minnte as possible in the detail of their cases,
—as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge-

The principles of Life Assurance are so well understood and
appreciated, as to need not any explanation : suffice it to ob-
serve, that, by their adoption, many deserving families have
been preserved from want and misery.
Tables illustrative of the same, and that will bear a compa-
rison with those of any other Office, have been constructed, so
as to meet the wishes of parties who may desire, or not, to par-
ticipate in the profits from time to time, according to the ave-
rage of the previous seven years.

Besides the perfect security to the policy holder of a large
paid up capital, and accumulating funds, with moderate rates
of premium, the following is one amongst many of the advan-
tages which belong exclusively to the principles of life assu-
rance and deferred annuities originated by the Scciety, viz.—
Power to borrow, (without delay, expense, or forfeiture) two-
thirds of all premiums paid upon a policy of assurance.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES DEPARTMENT.
By the plan exclusively developed by the Society, a single
deferred annuity is made, nit only to answer the same object,
but to equal in amount the entire sum of all the advantages
heretofore only obtained by the middle and industrious classes
by separate investments in Savings' Banks, Benefit Societies,
and Loan Banks.
1. A small yearly or weekly contribution will secure the
most ample return for aftet life ; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is.
a week) at 20 will at 65 give the policy holder the choice of an
annuity for life of 471. 16s. 6d.: 394/. 11s. in cash; or policy
without further contributions of 466/. at death.
2. Two-thirds at any time lent on deposit of policy, being a
fund always available during sickness or want of employment.
3. Two-thirds of all payments returned to representatives in
case of premature death.
The report to the Annual General Meeting of Proprietors,
prospectuses, tables, &c., may be obtained at the office of the
Society, by letter or otherwise, 26, Cornhill, London, or at
any of its Branches throughout the country.

Under the Management of a Board of Directors.

This Society, in addition to the general business of Insur-
ance Companies, has been formed for the purpose of enabling
persons of very moderate means to attain those objects hitherto
confined to the morewea.thy, viz.

Ist. Insuris.g their lives in sums from 5/. and upwards, se-
curing Deferred Annuities as a provision for Old Age ; Weekly
Allowances during Sickness ; and Endowments for Children,
the Premiums being divided into Monthly Instalments for the
convenience of the Insured. Also for the protection of such
as possess only a small personal property, Insurances are effected
against loss by Fire, in sums from 101. to 1001., by Quarterly
Payments ; thus Household Goods, 'Wearing Apparel, Stock
in Trade, Workmen's Tools, &c., to the value of 20/. can be
Insured, on payment of Sixpence every Three Months, duty
included.
The attention of the Public is particularly directed to this

LIFE ASSURANCE.
The System adopted by this Corporation combines the Prin-
ciple of Mutual Assurance with the security of a large Sub-
scribed Capital and the support of an influential body of pro-
prietors.
Those who pay the Participating Rate of Premium share in
the Profits to the extent of Two-Thirds guaranteed against all
Responsibility by the Capital of the Company.
Bonuses may be either added to the sum insured, or applied
in reduction of future Premiums.
In addition to the ordinary rates, Tables of Premiums have
been deduced, making the SUM INSURED PAYABLE on
the PARTY ATTAINING the AGE of SIXTY, or at his
DEATH, if it occur sooner.
Advances are made by the Company on its Policies to the ex-
tent of their acquired value.
Policies assigned to Third Parties for onerous causes are
placed on the same favourable footing as if the Insurance had
been originally effected by the Assignee.
Moderate Extra Rates are charged for risk of Foreign
Climates.
No Entrance Money charged.
The Premiums are moderately rated at all ages, and are so
modified by ascending and descending scales and otherwise, as
to suit the object of every Insurer at the least immed.ate out-
lay, whether to secure a Debt, provide for his Family, or to
convert Income into Capital for his own use.
Prospectus, Tables of Rates, and every information, may be
had on application to Messrs. B. and M. Boyd, the Resident
Members of the Board, No. 4, New Bank-buildings, London.
