(An Essay for 1846.)
" Of human ills and frailties I discourse,
Those taught by nature, and by art acquir'd.
Of griefs conceal'd, and disappointments keen,
Which young and gentle, the matured and sage,
The lonely and :he mated—all sustain.
In kindly spirit, he rein counsel's giv'n,
How health, how hope, how happiness to gain."

WHAT to EAT, DRINK, and AVOID ;
With Diet Tables for all Complaints.
Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil feelings, a
good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob-
servance of the instructions herein contained, the feeble, the ner-
vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire
the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the
full period of life allotted to man.
" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun,
To reach in health Bill threescore years and ten."
These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of
very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea-
surable and general utility, for they tell of matters eVeryliving crea-
ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in
these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through
questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount.
In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of
nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not
contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician
any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we
should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws
whereby our existence and the issue thereof in theiryseveral healthy
states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual
capacities In the family circle, and the terms on which the health and
withinhehl health
h the attainment happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely.
By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted,
foid
othf be in
b y ourth e oawitvailmkeeenptth hereofai n ful
filling

our duty to ourselves, we secure the lib e advantages on our offspring
to follow, and finally by the cultivation lf our faculties, which is In-
consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may
be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest
of God's creations.

TESTIMONIAL TO MR. COBDEN.

A meeting was held at three o'clock on Thursday, at
the Town. hall, Manchester, to take into consideration
the propriety of presenting a national tribute to Mr.
Cobden. The Mayor, W. B. Watkins, Esq., occupied the
chair.
The MAYOR stated that ho had consented to preside
in consequence of a requisition presented to him, and
signed by gentlemen of all parties. If the meeting had
been called merely for party purposes, he need scarcely
say he should not have been there. He called upon
Mr. R. H. GREG to propose the first resolution. Mr.
Greg read a letter from the Hon. Mr. Villiers, cordially
approving of the object of the meeting, and expressing a
hope that it might be successful. He also read a letter
from Mr. C. Paget, one of the most successful agricultu-
rists in thekingdom, offering 1001. towards a subscription,
and then proceeded to eulogise the conduct of Mr. Cob-
den, who, he had been informed, had not only given
his labour and time, but, he had it from good authority,
had sustained an actual loss of 50,0001. by his unwearied
attention to the League. He proposed the following
resolution:-" That this meeting, impressed with a deep
sense of the untiring exertions, the unsparing selt•sacri
lice, and unrivalled wisdom and prudence exhibited by
Richard Cobden, during the seven years' straggle for
the delivery of our industry from the restrictions of an
impolitic and unjust legislation, desire to conclude this
peaceful and moral triumph by a fitting expression of
honour and gratitude to that man to whom the nation is
mainly indebted or its successful issue ; it is therefore
resolved, that our fellow-countrymen be invited to co-
operate with us in testifying their appreciation of the
unparalleled services rendered to the nation by Richard
Cobden, by raising for, and presenting to him, a natioua
tribute commensurate with h's deserts, and with the
character of the British people."-(Loud cheers.)
Mr. WM. BROWN seconded the motion, which was
carried untgiimously. •
The MAYOR then read a letter from the Earl of
Radnor, approving of the objects of the meeting, and
desiring to have his name put down as a subscriber.
He also read a letter from Mr. John Brooks, who ex-
pressed a hope that at least 100,0001. would be raised
for the testimonial, and begging that his name might be
put down for any sum not exceeding 5001. A letter was
rend from the Earl of Ducie, stating that they ought not
to be satisfied with an amount less than 100,000/., and
also a letter from Sir Joshua Walmsley, expressing his
desire to be useful with others in promoting the object
of the meeting.
Mr. ROBERT GARDNER, seconded by Mr. J. P. WEST-
HEAD proposed the appointment of a Committee for
carrying Out the previous resolution.
Mr. Alderman NEILE proposed that the Mayor of
Manchester be the chairman; Mr. Alderman Potter the
vice-chairman; Mr. R. H. Greg, Mr. George Wilson,
and Mr. William Rawson, the joint treasurers of the
Cobden National Testimonial Fund.
The motion was seconded by Mr. SALTS SCHWABE,
and supported by Mr. W. A. Wilkinson, of London.

tions, and the following were announced:-J. and N.
Phillips and Co., 1,000/.; Brown, Shipley, and Co., of
