lADViERTISEMENT.j—BoIreI" Complaints and Cho-
lera do not always arise from foulness without the sys-
tem; 'if the liver be in a sluggish state, or if the diges-
tive functions be improperly performed irritation of the
bowels is sure to ensue; and if the blood be not properly
decarbonized, in consequence of the lungs being ob-
structed by
impurities, that vital fluid passes through
the system charged with a disease engendering principle.
The Vegetable Restorative Pills, prepared by John Kaye,
of Dalton-hall, near Huddersfield, have become
celebrated throughout the world as the most effica-
cious medicine ever discovered for ridding the system of
all impurities, for opening obstructions, for removing
acrimonious and redundant bile (the chief cause of cho-
lera), and for causing tho fluids to flow in a healthy and
natural order. At the same time, these Pills strengthen
the stomach, aid digestion, and renovate the whole sys-
tem. None are genuine unless Mr. Kaye's coat-of-arms,
and a fac simile of his signature, are .printed on the di-
rections for use wrapped round each box. Price Is. lid.;

MANCIIESTFIL, OCT. 28. During the week an inani-
mate feeling has prevailed throughout the trade, and for
secondary qualities of oatmeal and flour lower prices
were submitted to; the value cf choice descriptions was
maintained. The imports, foreign and Irish, are on a.
liberal scale. At our market this morning no materiel
change in wheat can be noted, and we repeat the quo-
tations of this day se'nnight. The scarcity of extra su-

realise full prices for such, whilst middling and ordinary
