LAMP,

The great fault which has proved fatal to the success of the Vesta
Lamp, viz., the emission of black smuts anti smoke, is entirely ob-
viated in the Paragon—the brilliancy and purity of its light surpasses
any other yet seen, and burns for one half-penny per hour.
C. Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton Fol-
gate, are replete with every variety. The Spirit, analysed by Dr.
Ure, is sold by C. Watson, at 4s. per gallon.

.'r IME WORKS WONDERS."
JL 'Tis said that " Time works Wonders"—that is true ;
The fact is seen in ev'rything we view.
Where'er we look, above, beneath, around,
Some most surprising " wonder" may be found.
Look at those vessels which, in triumph, ride
In opposition both to wind and tide.
Look at those carriages whose secret force
Needs not the efforts of the noble horse ;
These, with a thousand other "wonders," say
That " Time is working wonders" ov'ry day.
Another " wonder" brought about by Time
Claims special mention in this humble rhyme.
MOSES and SON'S huge warehouse is displity'd—
. A mighty " wonder=' in the sphere of trade.
Was there a house, a few short years ago,
Like MOSES' celebrated Dress Mart? No.
But " Time works wonders" in the works of art,
And hence that noble " wonder"—MOSES' Mart.
The hand of Time will still work "wonders"—yea,
" Wonders" will still be brought about in dress.
And all will own, while thus each day discloses
That " Time works wonders" at the house of MOSES.'
The New Work, entitled " The Monarch Mart," with full direc-
tions for self-measurement, may now be had on application, or for-
warded post-free.

FACT.—MECHI'S MAGIC STROP is
4. known to have sharpened razors when all other means had
failed. Those who doubt it can ask their friends, and if they pur-
chase and are not satisfied may have their money returned. They
are cheap, 2s. id., 3s. 6d., 4s. 6d., and the very large size ss. 6d. and
6s. 6d. each. The Magic Paste is 6d. and Is. per cake. Upwards of
150,000 strops and 1,500,000 of paste have been sold in the last six
years, which is a pretty good proof of their excellence. There is a
little fact, however, to notice which may prevent much disappoint-
ment and a good deal of pain. Sundry unprincipled persons, de-
sirous of sharing Mechi's good fortune without being entitled to it,
have made np thousands of common strops, calling them " The
Magic Strop," " The Double Magic Strop," " The Real Magic Strop,"
and so on, taking care not to put on "Mechi's Magic Strop." Now by
noticing the name Mechi on each strop, with the address, No. 4,
Leadenhall-street, London, you are sure to be right, as the law will
not allow them to put Mechi's name on the spurious sort. These
imitation strops are manufactured in large quantities at Sheffield,
and shipped, to a considerable extent, to America and the colonies ;
and it Is to be feared that in too many instances the buyers are not
aware they are deceived, although they find them of no use in sharp-
ening, which is a considerable injury to Meal's good name. Most
respectable perfumers throughout the United Kingdom will supply
the genuine strop as cheap as if purchased at Mechi's. His manu-
factory is at 4, Leadenhall-street, London, where may be had his fa-
mous bagatelle tables, dressing cues, papier-mache goods; alto his
approved razors, penknives, and table cutlery. Catalogues may be
had gratis.

ORD ELDON'S APERIENT PILLS, for

cine extant.

Thus _it is clear, Mr. Bre'

patent is not only more

durable, but possesses a sustaining power nearly double
that of the Government block, as, from the above table,
we find in the second trial with a single block, leather-
cogged, with wire strap, Mr. Brewer's block sustained a
weight of upwards of five tens, with no more damage
than merely straightening the hook that supported it,
whereas the Government block, with only half that
weight attached to it, broke, as it did in the great majo-
rity of the trials.

A. FACT.—MECHI'S MAGIC STROP is
known to have sharpened razors when all other means had
failed. Those who doubt it can ask their friends, and if they pur-
chase and are not satisfied may have their money returned. They
••re cheap, 2s. 6d., 3s. 6d., 4s. 6d., and the very largo size ss. 6d. and
6s. 6d. each. The Magic Paste is 6d. and Is. per cake. Upwards of
150,000 strops and 1,500,000 of paste have been sold in the last six
years, which is a pretty good proof of their excellence. There is a
little fact, however, to notice which may prevent much disappoint-
ment and a good deal of pain. Sundry unprincipled persons, de-
sirous of sharing Mechi's good fortune without being entitled to it,
have made tip thousands of common strops, calling them " The
Magic Strop," " The Double Magic Strop," " The Real Magic Strop,"
and so on, taking care not to put on "Mechi's Magic Strop." Now by
noticing the name Mechi on each strop, with the address, No. 4,
Leadenhall-street, London, you are sure to be right, as the law will
not allow them to put Mechi's name on the spurious sort. Thee.
imitation strops are manufactured in large quantities at Sheffield,
and shipped, to a considerable extent, to America and the colonies ;
and it is to be feared that in too many instances the buyers are not
aware they are deceived, although they find them of no use in sharp-
ening, which is a considerable injury to Mechi's goad name. Most
respectable perfumers throughout the United Kl, gdom will supply
the genuine strop as cheap as if purchased at Mechi's. His manu-
factory is at 4, Leadenhall-street, London, where may be had his fa-
mous bagatelle tables, dressing cases, papier-mache goods ; also his
approved razors, penknives, and table cutlery. Catalogues may be
had gratis.

FUNDS.

EIFENSES op MANACMIENT.—Each trade in the Association
shall contribute one penny per month for each paying member.
STRIKES, TURN-OUTS, AND LAW PROCEEDINGS.-The Central
Committee shall from time to time raise such levies from the as
sociated trades as may be requisite for the maintenance of such
strikes, turn-outs, law proceedings, or other measures for the pro..
tection of industry to which they shall have given their sanction•
There are several other clauses, but they are provisions for
carrying out the report in detail.
When the Bristol Delegate bad concluded,
The Delegate from the cigar-makers suggested that as tb.
last read plan had not had any consideration, it should be re"
ferred to a Committee.

The Delegate from the Potteries thought that the adoptiorl
of that report would only have the effect of throwing the apple
of discord amongst them, for there were some trades who would
agree to the land proposition, and no other, and others yr"
agree only to the strike plan, &c. He concluded by proposing
a resolution to the effect, that it was the opinion of this nor
ference that to attempt a general union of trades upon the
combined principle of the two-fold object of strikes and the
purchase or rental of land, would be impracticable, and there"'
fore prejudicial to the organisation desired by the present con'
ference.
After a Delegate had objected to the amendment, it was put
and carried, and the meeting then agreed that each Delegits
should have the power of admitting bur friends to the 01(01;
and some other matters of a routine character having been dis-
posed of, the delegates adjourned till ten o'clock to-morrow-
