DHAR have been for the last two years dreadfully
',flitted with a cough and pain in the chest, so that I could scarcely
oat the least portion of food without causing great pain in my
!hest, and shortness of breath, with a violent cough, not being able
", lie down for nine months; having had the advice of several
Mad.
'cal men, without deriving any benefit, I was advised by a
'fiend to try PARR'S PILLS, but having tried so many patent
"ledicines, I thought I might as well throw ray money away. I
**tan to think nothing would cure me ; I was fast wasting away
th a violent pain in my head ; at last my friend got me a box
from your shop, and advised me to try them, so I tried them, being
Ile strongly recommended, according to the direction, and before I
had taken one box, I found so much relief that I tried another,
and am new happy to say I am as well as ever I was in my life, and
shall always have a few doses by me, for they are wonderful.

" Mr. PARRY has been afflicted with sere eyes for twelve
peers, and has tried everything he could hear of without the least

are quite well, and have been for some time.

THE HALF-PRENHUM plan of Assurance, as practised
by this Company, enables persons to retain to their own use
the one-half of ;he premiums for the first seven years at 51. per
cent. interest. Thus, suppose the ordinary premium for an
assurance of 5001. to he 101.. the first payment by the half-
premium plan will be five guineas, being the one-half of the
le/., and interest for the retained half; and if death should
occur in !he fir.t year, the sum of 5001. would he paid less the
5/. retained. The assured may thus have the use for the first
year of Si. ; for the second of 10/. ; and so on till the end of
the seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 351.,
may either be repaid, or retained at Si. per cent. interest until
death, when the would be subtracted from the 5001. then
payable by the Company.
To entitle persons to yarticipate in the profits of the assured
on the mutu .1 principle applicable to the 'ear from February,
1843, to February, 1844 (which profits are wholly divided
amongst that class), Propusa s of Assurance must be lodged
at the Head-Office, or with any of the Agents of the Company,
on or before Tue‘day, the 6th of February next.
Every information may be obtained by personal or written
application, to the Agents of the Company, or to the Manager
in London.

E OPENING OF PARLIAMENT.
(HER MAJESTY'S SPEECH ANTICIPATED.)
My Lords and Gentlemen,—l'm much delighted
To meet you here, and find you so united.
I still receive, assurances of peace,
Nor are our tranquil prospects like to cease;
Some parts of Britain lately were in riot,
But these are now beginning to be quiet.
And then, again, on looking on our trade,
I'm sure we have no cause to be dismay'd.
A mark'd improvement we may dai'y view
In every branch of trade and commerce, too.
This, it appears, from those who ought to know,
Is owing to the MOSES' famed Depot.
I've watched these men, and am of the opinion,
That they're unrivall'd in my wide dominion.
M 'SES" and SON deserve your thanks I'm sure,
For what they've done to benefit the poor.
If ev'ry trarlesmsn made the same endeavour,
My people would be better clad than ever.
And now I end my speech—yet ere it closes,
add a hint with ref'rence to the MOSES',
For favours which those gentlemen bestow,
I trust that yoo your gratitude will show,
3y purchasing your clothes at Their Depot.

HANCOCK'S-PATENT FLEXIBLE-BACKBRIISHES,
No. BS, FLEET-STREET.
IPHE Public are respectfully informed that the
.IIL Warehouse for the Sale of the above PATENT
BRUSHES is now opened, where the various kinds applicable
to the patent may be obtained. Also, Wholesale, and for Ex-
portation. Bair Brughes, for their penetratin; properties and
pleasing action, which are highly recommended, and allowed to
be a decided improvement. Clothes Brushes, for their flexibi-
lity and conformity to the shape in their use, as well as preserv-
ing the nap of the nest cloth. Horse Brushes (truly the
groom's friend) ; this brush stands unrivalled ; it is difficult
adequately to describe the advantages obtained by its flexibility
when in use. The Flesh, Shoe, Stove, and other Brushes,
possess great advantages over the ordinary stiff backs, for it
will be found that all brushes hitherto made wear nut at the
extremities, leaving little of the middle worn, whereas the
Patent Flexible-back Brushes wear alike throughout.
