FRAMPTON'S PILL of HEALTH.
Price ls. 134 d. per box.
This excellent Family Pill is a medicine of long-tried efficacy for
correcting all disorders of the stomach and bowels, the common
symptoms of which are costiveness, flatulency, spasms, loss of appe-
tite, sick headache, giddiness, sense of fulness after meals, dizziness
of the eyes, drowsiness, and pains in the stomach and bowels, : indi-
gestion, producing a torpid state of the liver, and a consequent inac-
tivity of the bowels, causing a disorganisation of every function of
the frame, will, in this mast excellent preparation, by a little perse-
verance, be effectually removed. Two or three doses will convince
the afflicted of its salutary effects. The stomach will speedily regain
its strength ; a healthy action of the liver, bowels, and kidneys will
rapidly take place ; and instead of listlessness, heat, pain, and jaun-
diced appearance, strength, activity, and renewed health will be the
quick result of taking this medicine, according to the directions ac-
companying each box.
As a pleasant, safe, easy apperient, they unite the recommenda-
tion of a mild operation with the most successful effect, and require
no restraint of diet or confinement during their use ; and for elderly
people they will be found to be the most comfortable medicine hi-
therto prepared.
Sold by T. Front, 229, Strand, London. Price ls. I%d. and 2s. 9d.
per box; also by the Vendors of Medicines generally throughout the
zingdom.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

--
BIRMLNGHAN, JAN. 23.—At Gloucester market, on
the 18th, no alteration took place in the value of Eng-
lish wheat, but the turn in foreign was in favour of the
seller. At Worcester, the same day, the trade ruled
dull, and the prices of all descriptions of wheat were
nominally unaltered. Less barley was pressing on the
market. Oats firm, and fine ones were inquired for.
Beans again rather cheaper; and we did not hear of
transactions in peas. At this day's market there was a
short supply of wheat from the farmers, and the turn in
all qualities of English was in favour of the sellers. A
fair business was done in foreign, at the currency of
this day se'nnight. Barley of all kinds fully as dear.
Very little doing in oats. Beans and peas nominally
unaltered, with rather more doing in the former.
GLASGOW, JAN. 22.—Since our last we have experi-
enced very boisterous weather. The foreign arrivals

barley have been reported at Grangemouth from the con-
gsoehmdt. About 2,435 qrs of wheat and 1,060 qrs of
con-
tinent. The transactions during the week have not been
extensive, and prices, excepting of French flour, which,
being freely offered "ex ship," inclined in buyers' fa-
vour, have undergone no material change. This day's
market was but thinly attended. Wheat was dull at last
week's rates. Flour 3d per barrel and 6d per sack lower,

request and the turn dearer. Oats and oatmeal without
change. Beans and peas sold in retail at last Wednes-

unaltered.
