and hut two in Ire? Lat id—one for 5001. and the other tor 2601.—making

severely the life off ices generally suffered from the epidemic of last

Oueing in annual pt •emiums 3,7321. 1 ls. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed,
Amounting to 23,9301. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were

HE ADVERTISEMENT SHEET.
I am often amused at the things that we view
In a Journal's adverti.ement columns—aint you ?
Very seldom it is that I happen to miss
So pleasing a part of the paper as this.
Just look at the medley :—Gulls, pictures, and knives,
And carpets and fish-hooks, and husbands and wives,
And pigs and pianos, and lovers' misgivings,
And servants and shovels, and clergymen's livings,
And oti and tobacco, and classic researches.
And scavengers' contracts, and organs for churches,
All i tallow and tartlets, and houses to let,
And ballads and sermons, and "razor-blades set,"
And wafers for beetlev, and blankets and qudls,
And lessons in dancing, and pickles and pills,
Announcements in prose and announcements in rhyme—
But here let us pause, for I think it high time.
Yes, I think it high time al, er what you have heard.
That the Warelutuse of MOSES and SON have a word.
I confcs that I'm always delighted to meet
E. MOSES and SON on the newspaper sheet.
For all that they say is essentially tote;
Yes, they do what they say, and they say what they do.
I've tried Loth their houses, the East and the West,
And their garments, I own, must be ranked as the best.
And I trust that we long shall continue to meet
With their name en the public " Adyertisement Sheet."
Notice.—The Fur and Shawl Department are now replete with
every novelty of the season.
Observe.—Any article purchased, either ready-made or made to
measure, if not approved of, will be exchanged or tae money re-

hood of being connected with them, or it is the same concern, has
been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons. They

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 .Bollard 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 you, in mercy: to any friend who may suffer
from gout, rheumatic gout, lumbago, sciatica, rheumatism, or any
branch of that widely-allied family, to recommend their using them.
In this country they are of wonderful efficacy : not only am I person-
ally aware of their powers, hut I see my friends and acqu 'intances
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 acid effect a
much speedier cure than by any other means within my knowledge."
Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint-
ment by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Pilce 2s. 9d. per box.
