LAMP PHENOMENON.

YOUNG'S PATENT OXYDATOR, price
55.. renders Common Oil equal to the finest Sperm
in every kind of Lamp, at all seasons of the year. The dis-
tinguishing excellence of this instrument is, that it has so
drawback, viz. :—no alteration of the Lamp, no excessive heat,
no breakage of chimney glasses, nor stoppage of the lamp tubes
by coagulation of the oil ; in fact, nothing more is required than
that the Oxydator should fit the lamp burner, to obtain a bril-
liant, innoxious, and powerful flame. As a lamp is kept burn-
ing for the free inspection of the public, those who value an
invention for its real worth to the community will be much
gratified in seeing a scientific and chemical principle of the
highest order carried into general usefuln, ss by means at once
simple and effective.—The Trade supplied.—Agents wanted.

ANTI-BREAD-TAX COLLECT. Almighty
God, we offer our humble and earnest prayer in behalf
of our beloved country. Protect and bless and guide
our Sovereign ; overrule the deliberations of our
Ministers, and may they meet the wants and re-
lieve the sufferings of famishing thousands, in as
far as human instrumentality can avail, by the
removal of all restrictions that impede the free
interchange and universal diffusion of the bounties
and blessings of thy providence. Hear our cry in behalf
of the widow and the fatherless, the needy and distressed,
and may tender-heartedness and Christian love supplant
in every bosom the unholy influences of selfish exclusive-
ness and temporary expediency. May the prayers of
thy Church, offered in the name of our Mediator the
Lord Jesus Christ, reach thy throne and prevail with
thee, who art the Father of the poor, the God of all
grace and mercy. Amen.
THE ORCHARDS OF JERSEY.—The orchards
in this island are very numerous and flourishing. They
not only add much to the value of tho land, but present
an appearance of wooded luxuriance highly pleasing.
The soil is evidently well adapted fcr their growth, the
trees being remarkable for their broad rich foliage, •
their healthful appearance, and the 14. a

some exposed- situations the trees are so densely
crowded that their branches are intermixed like adus
forest. Little secluded dales, and their sloping sides
and irregular and waste-places, are here turned futo
good account by being literally caered with fruit
l
trees. The fences also in this island, which are mounds
of earth four feet high, and of the same breadth, are
thickly studded with out and elm trees, not so much
for the usefulness of the timber as for the valuable shel-
ter they afford to the apple and other crops. Cyder is
one of the' principal exports of the island, upwards of
2,000 hogsheads being exported annually',
though it is
not of first-rate quality, being sweet and deficient in
strength. This arises partly from the light nature of
the sun, and parly from the soft qualities of the fruit.
New sorts have of late years been introduced from Pe-
, vonshire, and also from France and America. The

of Aston, near Moreton-in-the-Mar,h, has found its way
thither. The price the best cyder is ftboUt siVunCe
