AUTUMNAL PHYSIC.
THE propriety of taking some Alterative Medi-
cine at this Season of the Year, to facilitate the elibrts
Of Nature, must be obvious to tile- weakest capacity': it is a
salutary practice, .founded by the wisdom of our Ancestors,
and sandioned by the apprObation of every Me(ficai &lan : its
utility is notgontined to the present advantages, but extends
also to the prevention of many Diseases, which .frequently
Occur 'When seasonablQ..physie - has been ne'gieeted. The
Public are therefore reminded, that DE V E LNO's VEGE-
TABLE PILLS are proved,- by ample experience, to be the
most sate and efficacious hitherto discoveredo.as an alterative,
purifier, and sWeeterieeof the blood, and for radically curing
.the Scurvy, Scrophtila-'44ing's F. vil, Scorbutic Eruptions,
Leprosy, the ill effects Of-Mercury, and alt lliseases originat-
ing, from an impurity . of- the blood--A variety of proofs of
their efficacy, from People of Respedability, are constantly
published in the London Evening Papers ; these must na-
turally be.supposed.to have their due weigt, and supersede
the necessity of any further comment from the Proprietor;
yet he presumes to assert, that the real merits of this vege,
table preparation will, on a fair trial, plead more forcibly in its
own recommendation,. than any thing which can be said ofrir.

days ago, a Gentleman, upwards of 7o years old, called at
the house of. Mr. Wright,.printer of the Liverpool Saturday's
Advertiser, and informed the shopman, that he could hear,
by the use of Taylor's Remedy, •as well as any man though
before he applied it he was so deal-that it was with difficulty
he could hear when people shouted, to him.

The folloWing-is exttal of a letter from Mr. C. Lowe,
of Leek, in the County of Stafford:

Sir, There aretwo cases where Dr. Taylor's Remedy
has'been useful at Leek.—The first person is about 45 years
of age he hid been very hard of hearing fdr more than ao

chime's playldistindly.—The other; about 63 years of age,
lost almost entirely his hearing when •abotit 'IS ; he has used
about * two bottles of ;he !Remedy, and has recovered his

TO THE PUBLICe
Omne nalit punaum, qui niiscuit utile dulei."—Hoe.
If the opinion of Horace, that the man who has succeeded.
in a combination of the useful with the agreeable, has carried
every point, be correct, the EditOr of the present Publica-
tion aas every thing to hope, and nothing to tear. But though
confident, be would not be thought assuming ; he would not
wish to obtrude his labours on the Public, without assigning
their Motive•and their end."
The principal subjed of complaint against the most repute
&Mel Travellers hay been, that each having had a predilection
for a specific objet, or branch of study, has paid too strict a
degree of attention to that branch in particular; but whatever
may have been the primary object of the Traveller, whether
his-attention have been direded to Physiological Investigation.
or Antiquarian Research; to the "examination of the Vege-
table Kingdom, to the scrutiny of Mineral Wonders, or to
Nautical Illustration, his Performance must be the result of
labour and refleCtion, and his liberal exertions are.equally de-
serving of public approbation and encouragement. It is uni-
versally admitted, that no Books are socomptetely calculated
to alfinel instruction and entertainment, from the magnitude
of the objects they embrace, as those of Travels in distant
climates ; for by the perusal of their general contents, inde-
pendently of the portion devoted to Scientific Inquiries, a.
contrast is formed with the Habits and CUstoms of our Na-
tive Land ; and thus thejuvenile_ Mind, instead of becoming
contracted and prejudiced, is accustomed to reflect with ad-
vantage on the different shades of Human Nature, and to re-
concile its Mainers in various parts of the World. So firmly,
indeed, have men of learning been impressed with this opt--
Ilion, that they haVe frequently insisted on the utility of all
Books of Travels, however inadequate their Authors may 1
• have been to the task of observing Nature. How much su-
perior then must be those Works, which have not only ex-
cited an interest in the Country where they were first sub- •
Pitted to public inspedion, but have been deemed worthy ,
of tieing translated into utmost every Language, and dispersed
throughout every Country, .in Europe !
The importance; therefore, of Voyages and Travels, on the
'veracity of which reliance may be placed, and their vast uti-
' lire to the Rising Generation, as well as to Society at large,
are so obvious, that any farther remarks in support of them
would not only be, superfluous, but impertinent.
But notwithstanding the immense advantages resulting
from produdlions of this nature, there have hitherto been
certain obstacles to the propagation of their contents, which
might justly have been considered insurmountable. The
Abolition of such impediments to real knowledge, we boldly
end unequivocally assert, will be efliteled by the publication
of the present Edition : and hence we have every reason to
hope that it will form a desideratum in British Literature.
The consequence of Travellers having too far extended
their remarks on particular subjects or branches of science,
has been, that they have sometimes . found it necessary to
curtail the general information which might have been ex-
ended ; or it' they have inserted the latter, the size of the
Volume has been so far extended, as to render its publica-
tion at a moderate-expense utterly impradicable. On the
other hand, the publishing of works of real merit on a large
vale, and attended with overstrained embellishments of the
graphic and typographic arts, has been tile means of intro-
daeing such Editions to splendid and expensive libraries
only ; while.ehe enormous price of the • Volumes renders
them unattainable by the most numerous part of society. On
this subject, the public complaint has been appropiiately
expressed in the words of juvenal
" Si:ire volunt onnies, merdodem solvere =inv."
To -remedy this most serious inconvenience, the Editor has
taought, that by printing his Edition in all the beauty of
Typography, together with the convenience of portability,
' and also by condensing, in a very few instances only, such
Matter in the Original Works as may be conceived generally
uninteresting; he should-be enabled to publish, in a regular
Series of Volumes, a complete and extensive Colledtion of
-Fads arid Observations, adapted to the present state 'of Li-
Jerature and Science ; a Collection whichewhile it is calcu-
lated for the information of the Nation at large, will not
discredit the patronage of Princes ; for, by 'a stria attention
to the double object of elegance and economy, he will be
able to present the most superb works that have been pub-
lished in every European language, at a price . which can
neither be felt nor regrettad by any enlightened individual,
whatever may he his rank it society.,
I t, may here be necessary to give the following outline of
CONDITIONS.
4. This Woik will be printed in the Oao-dechno, or Pocket-
.sizy, containing thirty-six pages in a sheet, with a New
Type, and on a fine woven Paper. ,
IL A Volume, containing, on an average, not less than 'Ten
Sheets, and not unZrequently Twelve and upwards, will
be published on the first dayof every month.
11 With every Volume the most interesting Plates will
be given which have appeared, in the original Works;
such Plates being re-engraved expressly for this Edition,
by the most celebrated Artists in the metropolis.
iv. The Work of every respeelive Traveller will be cum-
, pleted at the end of a Volume of this Editicn ;so that the
Public will have thedesirable priv ilegcqfpurehasing those
Volumes which they may be inclined to. prefer, without
being necessiteted to continue the Series. • (This Condition
Ss iti-unlzrt-aa by the. 't'ranslation of Denon, which will
fora: a complete Work, in two Pocket Volumes).
V. The utility of accurate Maps, to elucidate the different
routes through ,eountries in a great degree unknoWn, is
too obidoue to require the smallest comment.' Hence,
whenever any of an authentic kind may be contained in
the larger Works, they will regularly beziven in this Edi-
tion.
VI. Each Volume, printed in the manner above specified,
will be sold, at an average, at the very moderate price of
ss. ; en additional charge being added only when rendered
necessary by the increased size of the Volume, or by an
extraordinary number of Plates • and Embellishments ;
it where no subjects are 'ail-baled for the latter, the de-
Beiency will be supplied by an 'additional quantity of Let.
ter-press. A few Copies of each Work will be printed on
Royal Paper, with coloured Plates.
Vet It is bat justice to add, that although the most splen-
elid awl extensive Works ever published in the United King-
dom will ultimately be comprised in- this Undertaking, yet
it is by no means the intention of the Editor to .confine him-
self to this object alone., Every Edition of Travels of ac.
knowledged merit which may henceforth be published on
the Continent, will be expressly and immediately translated
for this Series. Hence it is confidently hoped, that the
present will form the most important and perfea Collection
!St Modern Voyages and Travels that has ever appeared in the
English language.
