LITERARY GAZETT-E, N 0.1,302,
JANUARY 1, 1842; a Double Number.
In order fo give a fresh impulse to this long-established and
popular Journal of Literature, soionpes, and Arts, the Editor,
and now sole Proprietor, It
nWatinces that ho has, with the New
Year, been enabled 0 secure the co-opet ation, in its various de-
partments, of at competent number of individuals holding the
highest rank in the several walks of classic, middle-age, and
modern letters; in philosophical, mechanical, and professional
pursuits ; and in tho cultivation of the fine arts, and improve-
ments of interest to mankind; from whose association he pro.
raises to himself to render the Literary Gazette more than ever
deserving of public confidence and regard—in short, to fulfil
his cherished object, viz„ that were an the literary publica-
tions, the learnod and scientific proceedings, and the produc-
tions in art, music, the drama, &e, &c., to be swept away, this
Weekly Sheet should, at the close of the year, present such a
record and account of what had been done, that the reader
would obtain a sufficient and comprehensive knowledge of the
whole, and be satisfied with the volume of information.
The Literary Gazette, in numbers stamped for post, or un-
stamped weekly ; or in monthly parts with wrappers like the
magasines, may be ordered of every Bookseller and Newsvender
throughout the country, or of W. A. Scripps, Publisher, 7,

PEOPLE'S EDITION rgh,
OFbecember, 1841.
SIR WALTER SCOTT'S NOVELS.
On SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1842, will be pub-
lished, and to be continued each Saturday till the whole is com-
pleted, No. I. Price Twopence, containing one sheet royal Bvo.,
double columns, of WA VE RLEY ; or, 'TIS SIXTY YEARS
SINCE. With all the Author's Introductions and Notes.
To be immediately followed by " Guy Mannering," " The
Antiquary," and all the other Novels and Romances of Sir
Walter Scott.
N.B. Part 1., in a Stitched Cover, containing Four Num-
bers, will be published on Saturday, 22d January,.Price Nine-
pence.

The Proprietors are anxious to meet the wishes of many in-
telligent Correspondents among the Working Classes, who re-
present that, notwithstanding the great circulation and unpa-
ralleled celebrity of THE WA VF.RL EY NOVELS, thou-
sands upon thousands of our industrious countrymen have yet
to form acquaintance with the Baron Bradwardines and Fergus
M'lvors, the Meg Merrilees and Dominie Sampsons, the Ed'e
Ochiltrees, Old Mortalitys, Die Vernons, Rob Roys, Jeanie
Deanses, and numberless other immortal creations of the Prince
of Novelists. The EdLion now announced will, it is hoped, be
allowed to put these marvellous performances within the reach
of the masses.
It is expected that the entire Novels will comprise about 260
sheets ; and, besides the Weekly Issue, a Monthly stitched
Part, price Ninepence, will be delivered with the Magazines.

PA RR'S LIFE PILL S•
The balsamic and invigorating powers cf this fine her-
bal medicine are wonderful; a trial of a single dose will carry
conviction that they are all that is necessary to invigorate the
feeble, restore the invalid to health, and do good in all cases.
The heads of families should always have them in the house,
as they may, with the greatest confidence, be resorted to at any
time, or in any case. Parr's Life Pills are now, from their
many virtues, the established Family Medicine.
The following wonderful cures are selected from hundreds of
a similar nature:—
Mr. ABRAHAM BENTON, late of Wright-street, Derby,
has been for some time afflicted with a complication of the most
distressing internal disorders, attended with violent cough,
under which he was gradually wasting away. He had been at-
tended by surgeons, and had tried almost every kind of medi-
cine, but nothing relieved him. He still lingered on, getting
every day worse, until his life was despaired of. The cough
had become so severe that he could not get any rest, and the
most sanguine of his friends thought he could not possibly re-
cover, but a• kind neighbnir, who had tested the wonderful
efficacy of Parr's Life Pills, recommended him to try them,
and before he had taken one small box, he was able to fallow
his usual occupation, without feeling the slightest symptom of
his former distressing malady.
Gratitude induced him to request that this might be made
public, for the good of his suffering fellow-creatures.
Witness to the truth of this statement—Airs.; Cocking,
Wright-street, Derby,

Hull, July 6, 1841.
GENTLEMEN,—I have to acknowledge with :delight, the
benefit I have received from Parr's Pills, I having been af-
flicted for 14 or 15 years with pains in my WI, and limbs,
and constant pain in my head. I applied to the first medical
men in Hull, and to the various institutions of the town, and
brought myself almost to poverty, but all to no purpose. At
lougtll I heard of Parr's Life Pills, and after taking only two
small boxes, feel grateful to be able to arid I now en,joy per-
feet health. 6, ELLEN HART.

" Wifilea---IVIn. Hart.

" No. 20, Kingston-square,
North-street, Hull."
Price Is. lid., 2s. 9d., and family boxes lb. each. Full
directions are given with each box. Sold by most respect-
able Aledicine Vendors in town and country ; to be had whole-
bale of Edwards, 67, St. Paul's, London.
In order to protect the public from imitations, the Hon.
Commissioners of Stamps have ordered " Parr's Life Pills" to
be engraved on the Government Stamp attached to each box,
without which none are genuine.

tld. That the repeated memorials of the inhabitants of Ox-
ford-street, and the personal applications made from time to
time by numerous deputations to the Vestry of St. Maryle-
bone, on the subject of Wood Paving, have been such as
should induce their Representative Vestrymen, if they are dis-
posed to meet the wishes and welfare of their constituents, to
continue and complete the Wood Paving in Oxford-street
without delay.
3d. That the inhabitants of Oxford-street, who reside near
the Wood Paving laid down by the Metropolitan Company, as
well as those who do not possess that advantage, are unreserv-
edly of opinion, that this specimen has fully answered the most
sanguine expectations in its favour, and that a trial of eighteen
months ought to be conclusive, with the most sceptical or
obtuse.

4th. That this meeting cannot comprehend upon what mode
of reason, assumption of truth, or pretence of justice, their Re-
presentatives can first assign twelve months as a proper period
in which to try the utility and durability of the Wood Paving,
and now, after that Wood Paving has been adopted
and paid for, and an additional period of six months has
elapsed, that the Vestry can for a moment entertain a proposi-
tion to postpone the farther extension of the Wood Paving for
a term of three years.
sth. That as many of the inhabitants as can conveniently
attend du form a Deputation to wait upon the Vestry, on Sa-
turday next, and strongly urge the propriety and necessity of
forthwith taking steps for the entire paving of Oxford-street
with wood.
6th. That every member "of the Vestry' be respectfully, yet
urgently, requested to attend on Saturday, at the Board, and
support the purport of the preceding resolutions.
7th. That the thanks of the meeting be given to the mem-
bers of the Vestry who have been present this evening.
Bth. That the proceedings of this Meeting be advertised in
all the Morning Papers.
WM. UNDERWOOD, Chairman.
Previously to the adjournment of the Meeting thanks were
voted to the Chairman, by acclamation, for his very able and
courteous conduct on this and similar occasions.
