ARNOLD'S PECTORAL, BALSAM OF COLTSFOOT.
• " More Consumptive Patient, date the beginning of their
Disorders from wet feet, damp beds, night air, wet clothes,
or catching Cold after the body has been heated, than from
all other causes."—Bnchan.

irr is notorious that Coughs and Cold• are ge•
nerally the forerunners of that most deplorable Dism,
der Consumption, and well would it be for numbers, did they
but pay a little more attention to these Complaints before
they assume a character which Islay baffle all the powers of
Medicine to remedy.
The Proprietors of THE PECTORAL BALSA NI OF
COLTSFOOT urge, upon all those labouring undir recent
Coughs and Colds, to make use of this Medicine; in a few
hours, frequently, they yield to its efficacy. Those afflicted
with old Coughs, recent and long standing Asthmas, Whees-
ings, Hoarseness, Shortness of Breath, &c. should he in-
duced to make trial of this Medicine. Numbers have expe-
rienced its good effects, indeed, the Pectoral Balsam of Colts-
foot has reached a-distinction which nothing hot its merits
can support. By au easy and safe expectoration, it removes
viscid and congealed phlegm, gives greater liberty of breath-
ing, stengthens the stomach, promotes appetite, thus afford-
ing to the afflicted individual that relief and comfort which
be so much needs. As a remedy for the Hooping Cough it is
highly and deservedly celebrated. Nothing can be better
adapted to prevent the ill effects of damp air and foggy
weather; nor to take when wet, damp, or wet in the fect,cold,
or shivering in the body, after a shower of rain, &c. &c.
The herb (Colisfoot) from which this Medicine is prepared,
has been known and esteemed for more than 2000 years.

CITY OF LONDON

THIRD DAY.

This contest Was resumed yesterday with an
increased ardor in the early part of the day ; but
as the morning advanced,. the number of voters
decreased. A large blue flag was hoisted in the
ward before the Guildhall in favour of Sir William
Curtis, as were the different ..banners at the re-
spective Committee Rooms of the o►her Candi-
dates, as on the previous day.
At the close of the Poll the numbers stood as

follow :

Mr. Wilson 1).197
Sir William Curtk
Anierman Wood ..... 1266
The Lord Mayor ....1146
Alderman Thorp . —lol9'
Alarrio.in Waithnnin

Mr. WtesoN on coming forward said, it was
I very far 'from his wish to occupy, tinnecessarily,
the time ut tke Livery, and, fatigued as he was,
he should have contented himself with expressing
his gratitude for the support afforded him but
front the-circumstance that .a misconstruction had
been put on his meaning on the former day,
which tie felt himself bound to correct. He did
not wish to detract in the least front the merits
of his late colleagues, hut lie must positively deny
that any coalition existed between himself and
the worthy Alderman to whom he alluded, for in
fact he might eta well he said to have formed a
coalitio6 with others of the candidates. lie bad
appeared before them as a private and a very
humble individnal, and he trusted that any ex-
pression that might inadvertently have escaped
elm would not be investigated with that !levy
that it might, under other circumstances, have
been subjected-to. He could not have expected
to be placed in the proud situation lie then stood ;
and all be asked of the Livery was, to place hint
in that situation they thoeght his conduct de-
served. • The state of the poll taught him what
he might expect, for it was not within his power
to contrast,' any votes; but if the Livery would
place him in any situation whatever, 'they might
depend that he would honestly and faithfully dis-
charge his duty towards them.-s(Applause.)
Mr. T. CueTts came .forwatetto return thanks
for his father, but from the contusion that eustied
occasioned by the cheers of his friends and the
opposition of his opponents, little of what be said
could be collected, even by those Gentlemen most
near to hint, lie was undetstood to thank the
Livery for the exertions they had made lie behalf
of his father, and to express his confidence that
be would be placed at the head of the poll before
the final close. the cause, he said, in which tiny
had embarked was a good one, and, notwithstend-
ing all the calumnies that had peen uttered against
his reveled parent, lie most succeed, and thus hurl
back on the persons.nttering them eternal. dis-
grace. They had gained an advantage, and, sup-
ported, as he had no doubt they would be, by the
Lively, would keep it.--(Applause.) •
Mr. Alderman Wools would willingly surrender
his place to any Gentlemen wto might wish to
address the Livery, but felt the interruption he
experienced from' some Gentlemen on the hustint s•
to be particularly unhandsome. He expressed
himselt perfectly satisfied with the state of the
poll, and promised to do all hi his power, if re-
turned, to satisfy his Constituents. He confi-
dently hoped yet to be placed in the same situa-
tion as he had been at the last Election, and, not
liking\to make professions, called on the Livery
to try him, when he promised to do all in his
power for the Commercial interests of the City of
London, and the good of the Country.
Alderman Moats expressed his gratitude for the
support afforded him on the present occasion.—
He could easily account`for the absence of many
of the Electors at Guildhall, as they were at-
tending at IVesttninster for the purpose of there
asserting their rights, and expressed his hope,
that in. the end a general benefit would result front
it. He had no doubt that the finale of the pre-
sent contest would prove to the Electors that he
was not too sanguine, when he said that it would
crown their wishes and his ambition with success.
Mr. Alderman WAITUMAN came forward amidst
considerable confusion. He regretted that a
tient hearing was not given to every Gentleman,
and expressed a confidence in himself- of giving
an answer to arty charges that could he
brOught against him, and, in the event of
tailing in sty doing, raid he would resign the
contest. He felt no despair at the state 'of the
poll ; and, as lie had stated yesterday, his friends
would not come Lorwnrd until they saw that he
was insecure, so lie would flow repeat. It should
be remembered, that on the last two days of the
preceding Election, they had topped their oppo-
netits, and he had no doubt that they would do so
in the present instance. Ile mentioned his exer-
tions with respect to the affair of Christ's Host&
tal,,and defended -his conduct with respect to the
Fite Clergy Bill, which, lie said, was the reason
for temoving him from' a sit nation in which they
found him so :".tormidable." He declared that
many krsons would hare come forward itt Isis
behalf had they Dot heen restricted from doing 50;
that be would not walk actress the Hall for a seat
in Parliament ;,censered the persons who had in-
stituted the pending proceedings against himself
and others in the Court of King's Bench ; and
described one of the 'Candidate's colonts as hay-
iug been }due, d on Blackheath, and another at
Hampstead, taking in the intermediate space.—
He concluded by exhorting his ftiends to picas
forward, anti,. insisted of tatting to the number its
the body of the Hall, exert .themselves to bring
up voters, arid meet him at three o'clock to-mor-
row efternoori, and thus secure hint a triumphant
majnrity,

The assembly then depattefl ; and the horses
