TO THE .
This lady had the foll Owing letters inserted in the "Times" news.
paper on Aug. 7, MG. Reader, remember, this letter was put lit
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
bunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grinastone, of the Herbary, High-
gate for the etllcacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months,
arid the whole of her hal rip much stronger and more luxuriant than
lever was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to-the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an 11s, bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, bat as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfurne iti far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above fact .--3, Swan-street, Borough.'
In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, masse it strong, and
present it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the
meet aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour tea or twelve drops
on the crown of the head; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an
bout. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It prodeces
hair on children's heads in a few apppllcations. If used on infants'
heals, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.--See
pamphlet of testimonials.

SECOND SEPTENNIAL DIVISION OF PROFITS.
This Company, established by Act of Parliament in 1834, affords
:he most perfect security in a large paid-up Capital, and in the great
success which has attended it since its commencement-I'lJ ANNO&L
fricostr, BEING UPWARDS OF 99,0001.
In 1841 the Company added a bonus of 2/. per cent. per annum on
'he sum insured to all Policies of the participating class from the
time they were effected, to the 31st of December, 1840, and from
that date to 31st December, 1847, 2V. per cent. per annum was
added at the General Meeting on the 6th of July, 1848.
The bonus thus added to policies from March, 1834, to the 31st of
December, 1848, is as follows:

N°. 17,800.] LONDON, FRIDAY
S -
9 OCTOBER 12, 1849

the proposed alteration at the Post-office, and he
found but one feeling of opposition expressed re-
specting it. He believed nothing would tend
more to retard that improvement which had
taken place in his time, as to the observ-
ance of the Sabbath, than the introduction
of a measure which should convey to the public
mind that the Government sanctioned a desecra-
tion of the Sabbath. Such a measure and such an
impression would interfere with all the efforts of others
to induce the people of this country to keep holy the
Sabbath day. He could speak with great confidence
of the beneficial results that had arisen from closing
the public-houses in the eastern parts of London on
the Sunday, and he felt satisfied that the proposed
Post-office plan—if carried out—would tend to retard
the progress of those moral and religious feelings
which had been promoted by an improving regard for
a proper observance of the Sabbath. If facilities ,
were afforded for transacting businps on the Lord's-
day, no man could say to what extent tnat business
might be carried. He had that morning
received a letter on this subject from a gentle-
man of high standing ; and he (Mr. Cotton) was sure,
from the communications he had had with various
persons, that a measure for the abolition of Sunday
labour at the post-offices throughout the country
would be well received. He, for one, would exceed-
ingly regret the adoption of any measure by which
her Majesty's Government should seem to justify
Sabbath labour in any one of its departments.
Mr. BEVAN—My Lord, I must say one word in
the -name of the London bankers, who can have no
feeling of rivalry with respect to the country or pro-
vinc.al towns obtaining information more quickly
than they do at present, which it has been said is
the reason why the London merchants oppose this
I change, as it may tend to put the country merchants
more upon an equal footing with themselves. I, for
one, and I believb the bankers generally, have no
feeling on that score; and I must apologise for so
few London bankers being present on this occasion.
This is dividend day, and they are all hard at
work ; and I myself left in a great hurry to get here
(smiling).
Lord JouN RussELL—Mr. Masterman is here.
Mr. MASTEEMANI. must say that I had quite
forgot that. Though I was at the Bank of
England by half-past eight this morning, in order to
get here, I had no recollection of this being dividend
day.

I,lr. BEVAN continued—There is no class of men
who have such an interest in the character of post-
men as the bankers have : and it will be difficult to
find men of such character as you desire to enter upon
the duties of the Post-office, where they have, I may
say, gold untold committed to their charge, if they
are to be at the Post-office till ten o'clock every Sun-
day morning, and after five every Sunday evening. I do
not think that men of high moral character, and who
value their religious duties, will accept of such a si-
tuation, many who now have them will throw them
up, and thus our letters will be committed to the
care of men comparatively of no principle. I think
that this will be a great social evil, and I earnestly
entreat that your Lordship will consider it. I am
quite sure that your Lordship would not yourself
accept any situation, however valuable, which took
from you that portion of your time—(Hear)—and if
you would put yourself in the situation of these poor
men, you would see that the same moral feeling
which actuates your Lordship may also actuate
them.—(Hear.)
Mr. C. POTT entirely concurred in all that had
been said by the gentlemen who had preceded him.
He had a memorial (as the reporter understood)
from Southwark, signed by two thousand persons,
against the prop-sed measure; those signatures had
been appended in two days, and if more time had
been allowed the number would hav9 been doubled.
