.AMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.--AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the bowels
or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant, is ac)
mitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and incipient con-
sumption. It frequently cures persons whom the faculty
pronounce incurable, admirably allays the tickling which
provokes frequent coughing. In approaching consumption
Its effects are truly beneficial. Persons deprived of sleep, or
even lying down for fear of suffocation, may depend on relief
in a few minutes after taking it. Prepared only and sold by
W. LAMBERT, Chemist. 8, King-William-street, Charing-
cross, London, and by all druggists, in bottles, 130., and

EVERY EVENING at Eight. WEDNESDAYS' and
SATURDAYS, at Three and Eight,—The or'g nal and veri-
tably legimate CHRI,TY MIN ,TRELS. First Season in
London these five years The only company in existence
which possesses a legal claim to the title, from the fact of its
being the only one which retains all the marked specialities
and distinguished favourites who originally gained the re-
putation of the company first in the United Stag s, and sub-
sequently 'u this country, in 1857. No other company as-
sumng the title of Christy Minstrels possesses single in-
dividual member of the least distinction who belonged to the
original troupe. The Christys (after an absence of five years)
return to London with their band strengthened and im-
proved in every respect:, their enterttenment being unani-
mously pronounced bi the metropolitan press to be the most
sparkling, in London.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE,
F OR
HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14a, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, aro given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO morn will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to tho really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBERT, D.D., No. 22,
Finsbury-circus, E.C.
