DECLARATION OF THE GUARDIANS OF BRENT,
DEVON.

IFIALSE'S SCORBUTIC DROPS.
A SURE CURE FOR RAD LEGS.
The following case has excited so much interest, that the Guardians
of the parish of Brent, Devon, have considere 1 it their duty to sign
their names to the accompanying important declaration :
We, tae undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas Ro-
lins, 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 mig^ t 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. " Halse's Scorbutic
Drops," have co cpletely 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.
Signed by John Elliott, sen., Lord of the Manor, John Manning,
William Pearce, Henry Goodman, Arthur Langworthy.

The ,bove.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 most
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 reduce ito mere skin and bone, and daily continued to
get weaker, so that there wa, every probability of his speedy death.

LEGSD THE CAUSE OF SCURVY,
D , &c.
It is really astonishing that so many persons should be content
to be afflicted with scurvy, wounds in the legs, &c., when it is a well-
ascertained fact that Halse's Scorbutiz Drops' make the disease
vanish like snow before the sun No one is better enabled to judge of
the value of a medicine as to its effects on the bulk of the people
than a vendor of the article ; And as vendors of this medicine we can
conscientiously recommend it to our friends, for there is scarcely a
day Passes but we hear some extraordinary accounts of it ; indeed,
we have known parties who have tried other advertised medicines
without the least success and yet on resorting to this preparation
the now justly celebrated' Halse's Scorbutic Drops,' the disease has
Yielded as if by magic. we again say, " Try 1-111se's Scorbutic
Drops."

The COMMITTEE of this RAILWAY are happy to announce that
the Board of Trade have declared their intention to report to Parlia-
ment in favour of the undertaking, as well as of the Staines and
Richmond Junction, and the Metropolitan Extension of the South
Western Railway. Thus the Richmond Company will have access
to an excellent terminus in the metropolis, and also derive a large
additional amount of traffic from the line to Staines.

Active negotiations are in progress with the landowners and hold-
ers of property en the line for the purchase of the ground necessary
for the purposes of the railway; and in far the majority of cases a
highly satisfactory prospect exists of the respective treaties being con-
cluded upon fair and amicable terms.
By an agreement entered into with the Directors of the South-
Western Company, the execution of the most expensive portion of th.,
line originally adopted by the Richmond will be transferred to the
aforesaid Company ; who have also agreed to furnish the locomotives,
carriages, and working plant of the railway.
The terminus of the line will be that selected by the South-Western
Company for their metropolitan extension, namely, a point situate in
immediate proximity to the entrance of the litingertbrd Suspension
Midge, o❑ the Surrey side.
The easy nature of the works to be accomplished on their part of
the line, which presents no features whatever that can occasion diffi-
culty or delay in their construction, has enabled the Committee to
enter into arrangements, by which the completion of the whole line
will ))e effected within the period of ten months after the Act shall
have been obtained.

TO THE PUBLIC AND PATRONS OF THE WHITE CONDUIT
HOUSE TAVERN, ISLINGTON.
ItROUSE, 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 patronage 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 net4hbourhooth—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.
