THE VOICE CONDUCTORS invented by
Mr. E. SOLOMONS are the most powerful Instru-
ments for the relief of deafness. From their minute construction,
and convenient form, deaf persons are enabled to wear them entirely
unseen, and they may be inserted and removed with the greatest fa-
cility. By their use the lowest whisper breathed at a public assembly
vibrates on the organs of hearing in such a pleasant manner as to af-
ford the greatest relief to those labouring under the distressing ail-
ment of Deafness. _

Mr. E SOLO MONS' PATENT SPECTCLES possess the ad-
vantage of modifying bright and strong light transmitted through
the various humours of tho eye, so as to render vision most perfectly
distinct by day, or lamps or candles at night, conveying also a sense
of coolness) and pleasure to the organ, with the additionallrecom.
mendation of being free from the pernicious attributes of common
glasses. Their superlative excellence is attested by the following

The public are respectfully cautioned against some unprincipled
empirics who have assumed Mr. E S.'s name and profession, and are,
from his immediate neighbour hood, and, with the roost unblushing
effrontery, issuing from the daily press puffs about "Newly-in-
vented Spectacle Lenses," and Hearing Instruments, which are
fraudulently set forth as possessing the most wonderful powers. The
Glasses are highlydetrimental to the sight. The names of some obscure
apothecaries and others are used in this absurd quackery, to deceive
he public into a belief that these pernicious glasses possess sonic very
supernatural powers. These common Lenses may he purchased for
one shillihg the pair, and for which the most exorbitant charges
are exacted by the parties, against whom the public are now respect.
fully cautioned. Mr. E. S. has received tor his invention " Royal
Letters Patent," and the patronage of the Royal Family.

LIVERPOOL MEETING.—It will be recollected
that there was recently held at Liverpool a large ineetin.., to
petition and protest against Lord Stanley's Bill, for disfranchis-
ing a great number of the electors in Ireland. On Wednesday
last an attempt was made by the Tories, and about the town of
Liverpool, to get up a counter-demonstration. The Clergy, of
course, were found there in force. fanning the flames of civil
and religious intolerance. Sir Thomas Brancker was voted to
the chair, and called on Mr. Aspinall to move the first resolu-
tion. He was succeeded by Mr. Robinson, and the third reso-
lution by the Rev. Hugh fil`Neile. The meeting was after-
wards addressed by Mr. T. B. Horsfall, Mr. Sheppard, Mr. C.
Lawrence, Mr. R. Gladstone, and others. The meetirr, se-
parated after giving three cheers for Lord Sandon, Mr. Cress-
well, Lord Stanley, and the other Conservative Members of the
county.
The late ex-Sheriff Parkins, according to a New
York paper, has left 3g0,0001. in the French Fuas, and
20,0001. in the hands of Messrs. Stone and Sons, who are his
agents in London.
Mr. OASTLER.—This gentleman has indited
a letter to a Tory paper, taking for his text a passage in Mr.
O'Connor's defence on Monday, apparenily for the purpose of
abusing Mr. O'Connell, whom he calls all those ugly names
which the most virulent enemies of the lion, Gentleman are
wont to bestow on him.
