to their merits and capabilities. It appears to us impossible to pro-

of their construction renderA them a handsome ornament for the

Cisterns, in lengths of eighty feet by three feet wide.
GUTTA PERCHA TUBING.

Amongst the peculiar properties possessed by this Tubing which
render it an article of great value not only to manufacturers, but to
the public generally, are the following :
Lightness, combined with remarkable strength (a %-in. tube
having resisted a pressure of 337 lbs. on the square inch).
Non-affection by the carbonic, acetic, hydrofluoric, or murlatic
acids, or by the most caustic alkalies This remarkable property
renders Gutte Percha so valuable for the conveyance of water, lining
of cisterns, &c., being free from the deleterious effects to health re-
sulting from the use of lead for those purposes.
Peculiar power of resisting frost.
Readiness by which it can be connected (by means of the Gntta
Percha Union Joints) with the water-tap, or pump, and used for
watering gardens, washing windows, c:srriages, &c.
Great lengths in wh-en it can be made (50 to 500 feet) without a

joint.
Ease with which the requisite joints can be made.
PAcillty with which it can be cut open, and again repaired, in case
stoppige.
ExtraorJinary power of condirting sound.

SYNOPSIS ofihe lIYGEIAN or MORISON lAN
SYSTEM of MEDICINE.
1. All arimal bodies consist of fluids and solids.
2. While iu a state of embryo all animals consist entirely of
fluids.
3. It is from and by the fluids that the solids are formed.
4. The fluids contained in the human body are four times the
weight or the EOIiCIS.
5. The chief of the fluids is the liood, from which all the others
are derived.
6. The blood not only repairs every part of the human ma-
chire, but also carries with it a'l the rubbish or decared p rts, to he
deposßed in the intestines, previous to being expelled along with the
excrement.
7. The blood is the life—the primum mobile—the first agent—from
which all others derive- their origin.
8. health depends upon the purity of the blood.
9. The purity of the blood depends upon its having free outlets for
its decayed particles.
10. Disease is induced by the choking up of these outlets in the
bowels, be reason of an accumulation of glary mucus on the inner
surface of the Intestines, &c. •
11. This accumulation is occasioned by anything that weakens the
circulation or impairs digestion, but chiefly by the poisonous drugs
and bed treatment of the Faculty.
12. The impurities thus detained in the blood occasion every spe-
cies.of disease, according to the quality of the humour, or the parti-
cular locality in which it is lodged.
13. All dis'ases proceed from one source, therefore they may all be
cured by one medicine
14. This medicine must be a Vegetable Purgative, innoxions in it-
seq; vet sufficiently powerful to pervade the whole system, clear
away the abovementioncd mucus, and purify the blood.
18. The discovery of a Vegetable Compound, capable of being di-
gested, and mixing with the blood, so as to impart to it the energy
requisite for ridding the body of all superfluous humours, was a desi-
deratum.
16. This discovery was made by JAMES MORISON, the Hygelst,
in the composition of the VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINE, of the
British College of Health, Hamilton-place, New-road, London.

EYEBROWS MUSTACHIOS, and WHISKERS produced in a
few weeks, and Baldness removed and prevented, by the use of
G IMSTON E'S AROMATIC
REGENERATOR.
If you arc in want of that beautiful adornment of the human
figure, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or
of any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer, an 11 s.
bottle of Grimstone's Aromatic Regenerator. This is an essential
spirit, drawn resin aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Her-
bary, Highgate), which has been long known to the nobility and
gentry, by whom it is highly appreciated for its manifald virtues, too
numerous to be set forth in an advertisement, but may be read in his
pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed.
Each pamphlet has the signature of William Grimetone, Merchant,
Herbary, Highgate, and will be found at rage 11, under the copy of
Mrs. Weekly's Letter to the Editor of the " Times" newspaper, 7th
of August, 1846.
This pamphlet is forwarded through the post, on receiving two
postage stamps.
The Aromatic Regenerator can be forwarded through the post on
receiving a post-office order for 4s. 6d., 7s. Bd., or 125., which In-
clips the postage with the case.
'The 118. size contains four of the 4s.
A few of its many virtues, as thousands can prove, are published
to the pamphlet enclosed with each bottle.

Reader, reflect for a few minutes, and if you are 40 years of age
you will remember the thousands of blind you meet with in your
walks, others with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was
the demand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re-
moved those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward,
clear-sighted people (the climate is the same) ? I'll tell you the cause
—the universal use. of GriMStolle'S Eye Snuff 1 and because it cured
Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, Cataract, Nervous Headach, and Deaf-
ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi-
cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67
cases of cure being proved Bythe informers, still it was an act of
oppression; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq.,
altered the label, and sanctioned its sale tinder order of the Lords of
the Treasury; the letter of protectien, signed by llerrics, Esq., to
Mr. William Grimstone, bearing dice 18th February, 1525. This was
on account of its curative qualities, being sold at that time in canis-
ters, within the reach of every poor funily. hut under this order of
Government it is ohlie'Ttl to be stamped.
ORIMSTOSE'S NEDIGA TED EYE SNUFF, sold in canisters,

" Ma. W. GatmeroNr.--tlir—l must in justice to you send the fol-
lowing Testimonial with regard to the extraordinary efficacy of your
Eye snuff in cases of Gutta Serena. I have used it in five cases with

nople. lam sure that lovers of mild, fragrant Tobacco would find
