BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
The acknowledged efficacy of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEU-
MATIC PILLS, by the continued series of testimonials which have
been sent to and published by the proprietor for nearly twenty years,
has rendered this medicine the most popular of the present age ; and
in corroboration of which the following extract of a letter, written
by John Mollard Wheeler, Esq., Collector of Customs, Jamaica, hav-
ing been handed by his brother, at Swindon, to Mr. Front for publi-
cation, will fully confirm.
" I know you have never had occasion to take Blair's Pills, but
let me emphatically tell yen, in mercyito any friend who may suffer
from gout, rheumatic goat, lumbago, sciatica, rheumatism, or any
branch of that widely-allied family, to recommend their using them.
In this ceantry they are of wonderful efficacy : not only am I person
ally aware of their powers, but I see my friends and acquaintances
receiving unfailing benefit from their use. I would not be without
them on any account. If taken in the early stage of disease they
dissipate it altogether ; if in a later, they alleviate pain and effect a
much apeediar cure num try any citilcr Lunen. wlLlan my knowledge."
Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint-
ment by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

We have great pleasure in recording our approval
of a patent for Ladies' Over Shoes, lately taken out by God-
frey and Hancock, 3, Conduit-street, Hanover-square, shoe-
makers to her Majesty. The patent consists of a sock or slipper
which being waterproof and extremely light, does not disfi-
gure the foot, which is a great desideratum both for c-mfort
and appearance. We feel certain they only require to be
worn once to meet with due appreciation.— Observer.

Mr. Davies moved the first resolution, a rov
pointment of a committee. He groundedphpiswinigshthfoe ap-

investigation on no suspicion or ill-will, but simply on the
fact that the property had cost altogether nearly
100,00 W.,
p
whilst its present value in the market was somewhere between
t
45,000/. and 50,000/. With a depreciation of 50 per cent.
was time to inquire into the position and prospects of their
affairs. Mr. Anderton seconded the motion, with the sole
view of benefiting the concern in which they were all alike
interested. Mr. Lindo and other gentlemen addressed the
meeting in support of the resolution, whi-h was then una-
nimously carried. Mr. Masterman repliec. to some oljec-
tions, but generally concurred in the moderate and just
observations of the previous speakers. Messrs. Sheppard,
Davies, Anderton, Shears, and Turnley were next elected a
committee; thanks were voted to the chairman, and the
meeting dispersed.

Mr. Patrick Park, is now completed, and has been removed
for exhibition to a wooden building at Bellevue. On Thurs-
day the uncovering of the statue took place in presence of
a large party of Mr. Park's friends. The band of the 93d
Highlanders were in attendance, and aided greatly in height-
ening the effect of We ceremony.—Zdinbersh Witnish
