WILKINSON'S ANTI- CORROSION
PAINT.
REMOVED from 63, Upper Thames-street, to
54, WATLING-STREET, near Queen-street, Cheapside.
J. R. WILKINSON particularly recommends his Paint to
the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public, who wish to paint their
houses of Roman cement, stucco, or brick walls, as a preven-
tive to damp or sea spray in exposed situations; it will not
blister or peel off as common paint. On tiling, to represent
slating, iron hurdles, roofs, conservatories, hot-houses, fences,
farm, or any out-buildings, it will last four times as long as
common paint. It is so simple in its use, that any labourer
can lay it on. To ship-owners for their decks, bottoms of ves-
sels, &c., it will be shown, as well as to the public, to be supe-
rior to any paint in use, by testimonials of its lasting fourteen
years on wood and houses, twenty years on iron (see the South-
wark-bridge). The public are particularly guarded in giving
their orders for Wilkinson's Anti-Corrosion Paint, that no
ether colour may be imposed upon them for his. A liberal
allowance to the trade.

that renders them valuable to all, and in valuable to children.

FEAVER'S INFALLIBLE EINIBROCA-
TION, for GOUT, RHEUMATISM, &c., &c.
Public attention is requested to the following Letter addressed
by Thomas Schofield, Esq., to the Editor of the " Morning
atronicle":—
SIR.—As I am sure you will be happy to promulgate any-
thing that will benefit your fellow-creatures, I confidently send
pat the followinr, statement of an extraordinary cure from a
violent attack of that dreadful malady the Gout, which I
Lave obtained by mere accident, feeling assured you will give
it publicity in your widely-circulated paper.
I was attacked with it for the third time on Saturday night,
the 31st of May last, and suffered the most dreadful agony till the
following Wednesday, when I war, recommended to apply to a
Mr. Feaver, woollen warehouseman, Friday -street, Cheapside, for
a bottle of Embrocatioa for the Gout—a remedy discovered by
his father, and by which, I was told, he had cured himself. At
that moment my sufferings would have induced me to apply
anything ; I therefore obtained a bottle of this Embrocation,
for which I paid 6s. 6d., and applied it immediately ; and to
my delight and astonishment, in one hour the intense pain
ceased, in two days I could walk, and at the end of one week
the gout had entirely left me. I have no doubt but for this
remedy I should have had at least six weeks of suffering, as 1
hail in former attacks.
I am indueed to take this step solely for the benefit of the
thousands who are victims to this distressing disease (and for
which, until now, it has been said there was no cure) that they
may know where to obtain the same relief.
Of Mr. Fearer, the proprietor, I know nothing, having seen
him but once, when I called to thank him for the benefit he
bad been the means of conferring on me; and finding he had
never made this invaluable discovery publicly known, I resolved
at once to make known my cure to you, and I trust through
you to my fellow-sufferers.
It is much to be regretted that Mr. Feaver does not imme-
diately publish it. It cannot fail to prove beneficial in a large
degree to himself, while at the same time it would be con-
ferring a great blessing on thousands of our suffering brethren.
However, I feel myself bound to give publicity to my own
cue in every possible way ; and I consider, by inserting this
in your columns, you will lie doing a much greater good than
usually results from whole pages of matter contained in some
of our daily journals. I remain, Sir, &c.
