THE HUMBLE PETITION OF THE WIDOW DE
WILDE and FIVE FATHERLESS DAUGHTERS.
TO the NOBILITY and Others, the MEM-
BERS of the ROYAL ACADEMY and other
ARTISTS, .the LADIES of the THEATRES-ROYAL
and other THEATRES. _ _

SnowEttr,—That your Petitioner and Daughters have
just been left in a deplorable state of poverty and misery
by the recent death of their husband and father Mr. Sa-
muel De Wilde, so well known for so many years as a suc-
cessful portrait painter, and more particularly as a fortu-
nate delineator of dramatic features and situations, having
chiefly contributed towards forming the late Mr. Harris's
gallery of histrionic celebrity, and the portraits for Bell's
British Theatre; but from having been for many years
rendered incapable of following his prt. fession, be dragged
on a life of dependence upon the benevolent bounty of a
small annuity from the Artists' Fund and a few private
friends, with the assistance from two sons, who can ill
afford the dutiful contributions towards the maintenance
of their parents and sisters. Therefore the kind and be-
nevolent assistance of those individuals feeling disposed to-
wards alleviating their distress, will be most thankfully
and gratefully received.
It is wished, from whatever sum may be received, to
purchase an annuity upon the joint lives of the mother
and daughters ; and they have the permission to state,
that Augustus Thesiger, Esq., of Stanmer Villa, Wey-
bridge, has kindly consented to act as trustee to see it car-
ried into effect ; and that subscriptions will be received by
Messrs. Coutts and Co., Strand ; Sir John Paul, Strand,
near Temple-bar; and Messrs. Roberts and Curtis, Lom-
bard-street.

ATKINSON'S CURLING FLUID, OR VEGETA-

TIVE HAIR OIL.
IT is now more than Twenty Years since this
Article was first introduced to the Public, and its
general adoption at the Toilets of most Ladies of Fashion,
is the best proof of its utility ; it is much superior to Oils,
Extracts, or Pomatutns, for moistening the hair in dressing,
making the harshest hair soft as silk, and giving it such
strength and elasticity, that it retains its Curl during
exercise in dancing, walking, or riding, or in the dampest
atmosphere, and gives it such a glossy appearance as can
be obtained by no other means whatever.
Prepared and sold by James and Edward Atkinson, 24,
Oid Bond-street, (Removed from 44, Gerrard-street, and
39, New Bond-street) ; and sold by their appointment, by

lington Arcade; Woodman, 46, Piccadilly ; Mason, 38,

CAUTlON.—Various imitations of the above article are

THE IMPETUOSITY of PASSION,
and the coincidence of general gaiety must involve
a considerable portion of the community in the sufferance
of those disorders which are destined to be the punishment
of illicit indulgence. And since the time of Monkish
superstition, no blame has been imputed to medical Practi-
tioners for the exertions of their skill in the removal of
these complaints.
As medical ability cannot therefore be more usefully or
more respectably employed, it is only necessary to inquire
where it cau be most decisively depended upon, certainly
not among those who rush without education into the
practice of Esculapian slaughter ; but among those who,
after regular initiation, confine their exertions to one point,
and concentrate their skill in the study and treatment of
One Branch.
Dr. Courtenay, from the University of Edinburgh, is
entitled by hie qualification to make this selection, and
after unprecedented success for upwards of Thirty-five Years,
be may now without presumption, offer restoration in cases
where the must eminent Practitioners have failed. An
Insidious Disorder may be contracted in an unguarded
moment of intoxication. By this plan of cure, pain is
prevented, the possibility of danger precluded, and the
constitution is left, not merely unimpaired, but absolutely
improved by the process.
The sufferings of this complaint are however trifling
compared with the consequences of that destructive prac-
tice for which Onan suffered death. To those whose
feelings are susceptible of the misery which this pernicious
habit has occasioned, it may he some consolation to know,
that, by proper perseverance, the most deplorable debility
may be removed. When estates are dependant on the
progeny of married people, the removal of those impedi-
ments is to many the reiteration of life's beet enjoyment,
nor is it unreasonable to expect success from the connection
of that peculiar state of the constitution, by which con-
oeption is prevented, or the embryotic prisoner constantly
destroyed. It is the milt of Dr. Courtenay's experience,
to offer a safe and certain removal of these impediments,
and by correcting the morbid state of the uterine functions
the female soon becomes in that state " which Ladies wish
to be who love their Lords." Dr. Courtenay may be con-
sulted poi solidly, or by letter, with the greatest secrecy
and honour, at his house, No. 21, Leicester-square.
Patients in the country describing the particulars of
their complaints, age, mode of living, &c. &c., inclosing
a remittance for advice and Medicines will have the same
given or sent to any part of the world.—Letters are ex-
pected to he post-paid.
Dr. Courtenay has removed from No. 6, Robert-street,
Adelphi, to No. 21, Leicester-square, where he continues
U practice, and is consulted as heretofore. Dr. Courtenay
has no connection whatever with the young man now
practising at his late residence, and he thinks it is due to
those Noblemen and Gentlemen, who have hitherto so
liberally honoured him with their confidence, to make this
public declaration itO consequence of that individual presum-
ing to state verbally and in writing to several of Dr. Cour-
tenay's patients, that he had retied altogether ft om practice,
and assigned it to hina.—Dr. C. has done no such thing.
