Duchess of Kent, and the Lords of the Treasury, is universally
recommended by the Faculty for its efficacy in removing dis-
orders incident to the Eyes and Head.

sand cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trifling ex-
pense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary
to induce the sufferer to make trial, Kings, Lords, and Com-
mons have used it. The Lords of the Treasury have sanctioned
its use. Their late Majesties, the Duchess of Kent, the most
eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners—with that gigantic
balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated
Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grimstone's Eye Snuff,"
for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eyes and
Head. G. J. Guthrie, Esq., F. It. S. See J. 11. Lichfield,
Esq.'s Letter, Whitehall. 1)r. Thomas. Dr. Andrews calls
it a national blessing—see his Reports touching its utility. The
late Mr. Abernethy, with many others, recommend Grim-
stone's Eye Snuff, and call it " Man's best Friend," and the
" Student's Vade Mecum."—See the many thousand Letters
of Testimonies, of undoubted medical authority, with others of

To Mr. Grimstone, Inventor of Eye-Snuff.
Dec. , 1840.
Sir,—l have been a sufferer for seven years, both eyes being
so swollen as to cause blindness. Among the many Medical
Gentlemen who attended me was the famous oculist, Dr.
Alexander ; indeed. I do believe my case was beyond all their
skill. " Physic, Bleeding, Blistering, with a seten, of all
kinds of Lotions, but no relief," till chancing one day, being led
by your house in 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, my guide
inquired if I Karl tried your Eye-Snuff, on which I purchased
a ls. 3d. Canister, opened it in the shop—took some, and was
greatly relieved before I reached my borne. I car. with truth
assert, and snake oath if required to do so, that it was your Eye-
Snuff cured me. Sisal be happy to answer any inquiry.
I am, Sir, yours gratefully,
L. S. BREWER.

CHEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight o'Clock in the
Morning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of
Syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they have hititerti ob-
served. The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient
to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or
recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer-
cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative 'lability,
Gonorrhoea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva-
lent, are treated upon these unerring principles which have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of public ra..
tronage for nearly thirty yearsin London, and which it will be
their future exertion to maintain.

Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return
and patients, however distant, will be corresponded with until
recovered.

that the construction of the first, the great tidal dock, of 16
acres area, proceeds with unremitting vigour and success. The
Contractors have from 400 to 709 men, according to the wea-
ther, besides a large force both of steam and horse power; at
work on it day and night ; and the Directors have perfect confi-
dence that they shall redeem their pledge to one of the large

Southampton as their port of arrival and departure. The se-
cond, sr close dock, of 14 acres area, for the reception of mer-
chant-vessels, is already in so forward a state that there exists
no reasonable doubt that it Fill be in active and profitable ope-
ration before the close of next year.
