THE CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM
is intended to relieve those persons who, by an immo-
derate indulgence of their passions, have ruined their constitu-
tion, or, on their way to the consummation of that deplorable
state, are affected with any of those previous symptoms that
Letray its approach, as the various affections of the nervous sys-
tem, obstinate sleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregu-
arity, obstructions of certain evacuations, weakness, total im-
potency, barrenness, &c. But the relief administered is not
confined to these alone. The valetudinarian by birth, who has
received from his parents the inheritance of a diseased and un-
prolific frame ; the delicate female, whom an immured and in-
active life, together with the immoderate use of tea and other
weak and watery aliments, has, without any fault of hers,
brought on all the calamitous symptoms of a consumptive
habit, and is, without timely assistance, sinking into an un-
timely grave. Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men
or women, are under the immediate influence of this restorative.
Old coughs, a:Jamas, and consumptive habits are soon relieved,
and speedily cure.l. Poverty of blood and emaciated limbs will,
ere long, meet the happiest change the chill, watery fluid will
oeconac rich and balsamic, and the limbs be covered with flesh,
firm anti beautiful, It is remarkable for its efficacy in all dis-
orders of the digestive organs, and is especially recommended
to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age, habits of
studious application, or a life of pleasure, have fallen into a
despondent state of mind, and that distressing train of symp-
!toms commonly denominated the nervous. In such persons the
mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal powers, and to
them a remedy that acts with efficacy, without interfering with
domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable.

most ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is.

annuity for life of 471. 16s. 6d.: 3941. I Is. in cash; or policy
without further contributions of 4661. at death.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

MANCHESTER-FRIDAY EVENING.

The Derby betting has been very extensive. The Ro-
salie colt has been in no demand at 14 to 1; Soult has had
to give way to Pairemon, whose party really seem deter-
mined to ruin the town. Two or three gentlemen never
stop. 17 to 1 was the top offer yesterday on Tuesday
night 20 to 1 in fifties was laid ; and in a private quarter,
on Wednesday, 18 to lin rouleaus. He has been coupled
to Eringo at 9 to 1, and would have been to Soult at tl.e
same figure. The Duke of Wellington was in right mili-
tary force at the early part of the week-9,000 to 200 was
laid and taken in one hand. On Tuesday night Mustapha
(trained by J. Day) was dashingly supported for approach-
ing a hundred pounds at 1,000 to 10, and finally to 20,
Yesterday morning we noticed 500 to 7 taken on the same
colt, also 1,500 to 21; 1,000 to 20 was afterwards offered.
1,000 to 5 was laid v. Warlock; 1,000 to 15 Ben Brace
(offered); 500 to 10 The Nob (offered); 18 ponies to 1
was then offered against Soult ; and 100 to 7 on the field.
The night of Tuesday furnished the Riddlesworth as a
novelty, and also the 2,000 Guineas Stakes. For the
former Eringo vies backed at 60 to 40, and for the latter
Mustapha at 10 to 1 in scores. 20 to 1 was offered v.
Tory Boy for the St. Leger, and 20 ponies to 1 taken on
The Squire ; and, we believe, 500 was laid at evens The
Squire against Thistlewhipper.
The business to-day requires no cosoment. 14 to 1 was
off red on the Derby field ; 17 to 1 accepted in ponies on
Palmmon ; 7i to 1 in scores laid the field v. Rosalie and
Pa!wmon ; also 200 to 3 agst Van Amburgh. The others,
w:th a trifling exception or two, may have justice done
them by a glance at " the doings" at Hyde Park-corner,
or our last observations.
