TO THE PUBLIC AND PATRONS Or THE WHITE CONDUIT

HOUSE TAVERN, ISLINGTON.
ROUSE, at the commencement of a new
• year, takes this opportunity of returning his grateful thanks
to the Stewards and Committees of the numerous Societies who ho-
noured him with their patronne during the last year, and respectfully
to solicit a continuation of their kind faVOurs. He at the same time
embraces the opportunity of calling the attention of his patrons and
the public to the extensive alterations and improvements lately made
in the tavern department—to the central and rural situation—the sa-
lubrious air of the neighbourhood—to the superior conveniences and
capabilities of the White Conduit House for the accommodation of
large or small Dinner Parties and Public Meetings; and likewise to
the important advantage of a cheap conveyance by omnibus every
five minutes to and from all parts of London, thus possessing the com-
bined advantages of a town and country tavern in one establishment.

LORD ♦BERDEEN TO LORD RANELAGU.

Foreign-office, Dec. 21, 14.14.
I should naturally feel much disposed to object to the
publication of letters, which, by me at least, had never
been wiitt.m with any such view or expectation ; but as
my request might bc liable to misconstruction, and as I
coojectur3 that the suppression of the correspondence
would be more painful to your Lordship than its publi-
cation would be disagreeable to me, I leave you to do as
you think proper.
Should your Lordship finally decide on giving this
correspondence to the public, I have only to express a
hope that no part of it way be suppressed.

ITALSE'S SCORBUTIC DROPS.
A SURE CURE FOR RAD LEGS.
The following ease has excited so much interest, that the Guardians
of the parish of Brent, Devon, have comidere 1 it their duty to sign
their names to the accompanying important declaration :
We, the undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas Ro-
nne, one of our parishioners, commenced taking Halse's Scorbutic
Drops," he was literally covered with large running wounds (some
of them so large that a person might have laid his fist in them) ; that
before he had finished the first bottle he noticed an improvement,
and that by continuing them for some time, he got completely
restored to health, after everything else had failed. He had tried
various sorts of medicines before taking 6, Halse's Scorbutic Drops,'
and had prescriptions from the most celebrated physicians in this
country, without deriving the least benefit. Ha se's Scorbutic
Drops," have co opletely cured him, and he is now enabled to attend
to his labour as well as any man in our parish. From other cures
also made in this part, we strongly recommend " Halse's Scorbutic
Drops" to the notice of the public.

June 21, 1943.
The above.mentioned Thomas Rolins was quite incapable of doing
any kind of work whatever before he commenced taking those Drops.
Some of his wounds were so large, that it was most awful to look at
them, and the itching and pain of the wounds generally were mo't
dreadful; indeed, the poor fellow could be heard screeching by
passers by, both day and night, for sleep was entirely out of the ques-
tion. He was reduces to mere skin and bone, and daily continued to
get weaker, so that there was every probability of his speedy death.
