THE VIGOUR OF YOUTH RESTORED IN
FOITR WEEKS by Dr. RICORD'S ESSENCE OF

LIFE.
This wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most
shattered constitution, whether arising- from self-pollution,
excesses, nocturnal emissions, the effects of climate, or natu-
ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate
case is four weeks ; and, if used according to the printed in-
structions (which are very simple). failure is impossible.
This life-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to
marry, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by
the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made.
Success in every case is as certain as that water quenches
thirst
vr. muurd's Essence of Life is sold in cases, with full in-
structions for use, at 11s., or four quantities in one for 338.,
and may be sent to any part of the world, carefully packed,
on receipt of remittance or post-office order payable to Front
and Co.
Dr. Ricord's Sole Agent in London is Prout, Patent Medi
tine Warehouse, 229, Strand (seven doors west of Temple

MAJORS.
The Regimental Majors of Cavalry and Infantry of each
Presidency will be thrown together into one list, according

as nearly equal as possible; every member of each group to
receive the offer of annuities according to the following
scale in addition to any pensions to which they may be en
titled under the regulations of the service :

4th If .. .. ...
Nominal rolls of the Field-officers of Cavalry and Infan-
try as they stand on the effective lists of Lieutenant-Colo-
nels and Majors regimentally, on the Ist of October next,
according to the official returns of the Adjutants-General
of the three Presidencies, will be prepared and published by
the Government of India as soon after that date as possible.
In these rolls the Lieutenant-Colonels and Majors will be
grouped according to the principles exhibited in the preced-
ing scales ; and it will be announced that they will be per-
mitted to retire with the annuities placed opposite their
respective names, provided their applications are received
by their respective Governments prior to the 15th of Decem-
ber next. . .

It is to be clearly understood that the annuity granted to'
each officer will be that due to his position in the nominal
rolls above specified, and that no change whatever in that
position, or in the annuity assigned to him, will be admitted
as a consequence of any casualty that may occur or become
known at the Adjutant-General's-office after the Ist of
October, 1861.
All retirements under this scheme will date from the 31st
of December next, and the promotions arising therefrom
will take effect from the Ist of January, 1862. The promo-
tions will be carried out on the following principle :
The names (printed in italics) of such of the Lieutenant-
Colonels as retire under the conditions now offered will re-
main on the list, for the purpose of regulating the succession
to Colonel and to Colonel's allowance. Thus, should the
senior regimental Lieut.-Colonel at either Presidency retire
on the annuity now to be offered his name will remain on
