[Anvaavissminr].—The misery, the disappointment, the
intermixable expense of ineffectual "physic-taking," are now
happily superseded by the use of Messrs Du Barry's Revalenta
Arabica Food, which, by a pleasing and natural action on the
system, removes chronic and exhausting disease, and replaces
languor and pain by vigour and health. Those whom it has
restored to the enjoyment of life include persons belonging
to all social grades and professions, and it is a proof that the
emotion of gratitude is more general than cynics imagine,
when we find upwards of Fifty Thousand of the individuals
thus relieved publicly expressing their sense of the benefits
they have derived. T,he peer and the clergyman, the lawyer
and the physician, the naval and military officer, the mer-
chant, tradesman, and oven the poor mechanic, have joined,,
in this unanimous and unparalleled testimonial. Their ac-
knowledgments partake of the same spirit which characterises
the communication of Mr. Evans Pepperell, who commences
his letter by saying :—" For many years I have been
a martyr to indigestion, acidity, heartburn, constipa-
tion, and nervousness to such a degree, that I was unable to
stay alone in my room, or walk out alone, being constantly
filled with unaccountable fears ; and I have bad several fits,
remaining unconscious for about half an hour. I had the ad-
vice of three eminent physicians, anti taken their prescrip-
tions for a long time, but my ailments only increased under
their influence. Your excellent Food produced, I am happy to
state, an immediate change for the better, and I am now,
after two weeks' use of it, a wholly different being, with ex-
cellent appetite,clear tongue, free from acidity and heartburn,
regular in my functions, and getting stronger every day. My
nerves are perfectly tranquil, and I sleep most refreshingly.
With gratitude to you for so happy a change, I reinain, &c.,
dte., Evans Pepperell." Another gentleman, wh), like most
others, invites Messrs. Du Barry to refer sufferers to him,
thankfully declares ;—" I have found your incomparable
Food an infallible preventive of the gont." The ladies are
equally emphatic in their acknowledgments. Thus, Miss
M'Lelland expresses her thanks for the removal of dye-
pepsia and constipation, from which she had suffered for
many years. Miss M. considers Mr. Du Barry's Food a most
invaluable article of diet for invalids, being highly nutritious,
strengthening„and restorative, and she will feel pleasure in
recommending it to her friends." What invalids most re-
quire is a CERTAINTY that the article recommended to them is
capable of affording relief ; that they will not have again to
undergo (as they have so often done) the bitter (process of
trial and disappointment. This certainty they now possess,
and it is no extravagance to express our confidence that
it will prove the harbinger of glad tidingeto millions.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

Prince Adalbert of Prussia visited Sheerness
Dockyard yesterday. He was received by the
Commander-in-Chief Vice-Admiral of the Blue E.
Harvey, attended by his secretary Mr. Dyer ; Cap-
tain-Superintendent of the yard J. C. Fitzgerald,
attended by his secretary Mr. C. Creasy, Coliaman-
der E. Wilson, Capt-. E. P. Halsted, of the Edin-
burgh, with Commander H. Lloyd, Capt. A.
Forbes, and Coinmander W. B. Lethbridge, of the
Renown, and all the principal officers of the dock-
yard. Also the Oolonel-,Cemmandant P. V. Eng.
land and the staff of the garrison. The Prince im-
mediately on landing, returned the salute of the
guard of honour while the Waterloo's band played
the National Anthem. The Prince was then con-
ducted to the fitting basin, in which the Renown,
new screw steamship, 91, was moored. She was all
a-taut, and the Prince spoke in the highest terms
of her neat yet warlike appearance. On going on
board the Prince vi.,ited every part of her. 00
leaving the Renown the Prince and party proceeded
to :visit the new factory, millwrights' shops, fac-
tory, smithery, &0., where they were received by,
Mr. G. Blaxland, chief engineer of the yard, fac-
tory, 'dec. They then visited the storehouses, cop-
per store, &c., where they were received by the
storekeeper, C. G. Bedford. The Prince
was highly amused in the copper storeroom by an
ingenious piece of mechanism erected there, termed
th storekeeper's tell-tale, •as on the Prince touch-
ing any article and taking it from the shelves the
figure door immediately swung round, changed
position, and rang an alarm bell. On leaving the
storerooms he proceeded to examine two new marine
boilers now being tested near the new boiler house
—both of which have been some weeks undergoing
experiments for generating steam with certain quan-
tities of fuel, and to ascertain some practical infor-
mation as to the advantages to be derived by the new
boiler against the old for marine engine purposes.
They they proceeded with the principal authorities
to the Admiralty-house, where they were enter-
tained by the gallant Admiral.
Yesterday Col. C. C. Hay, Inspector-General of
Musketry Instruction, and Commandant of the
School of Musketry, Hythe, arrived at Chatham for
the purpose of making an inspection of the troops
at that garrison who are being instructed in the
use of the Enfield rifle. The Inspector-Gener kl
first inspected the troops under instruction belong-
ing to the first battalion, under the command of
Col. H. Jervis, after which he inspected in succes-
sion the 24 and 3d battalions, the Royal Engineer*,
who are being instructed by Capt. G. R. Lempriere,
and the Royal Marine Light Infantry, with the
whole of whom he expressed himself well satisfied.
The officers of the Royal Artillery at Woolwich
yesterday gave a grand concert in their ruessroom,
which was attended by nearly 500 inhabitants of
Woolwich and its vicinity, including the officers of
the garrison and their families. In addition to the
performance of the Royal Artillery band, a Polish
performer, M. Kratky Baechick, played a grand
introduciory valse on a singular and unique instru-
ment termed the cor melodicon, or four horn in
one. This extraordinary instrument, invented by
the performer, produces the effect of duet, trio,
quartei-, sestet, and of an entire orchestra.
