To Mr. W. Grimstone, 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, London.
Sir,-1 feel great pleasure in sending you the particulars of
my case, and the miraculous cure performed on myself, by
using your truly valuable Eye-Snuff. Sir, I am now in my
93d year, and a native of Holland, have been in this country
26 years. Whether from change of climate, or my advanced age,
I cannot say, but for six years I have been deprived of sight,
therefore unable to follow my business. I do most sincerely
beli've I should have remained in darkness and pain but for
the kind recommendation of a friend to use your invention. I
purchased a 23. 4d. canister of your agent, Mr. Wileockson, to-
bacconist, who knows the above to be facts, and will bear wit-
ness to my extraordinary recovery of that most inestimable
blessing of our life—" Perfect Sight"-1 declare has proceeded
from the use of your Eye Snuff. For the sake of those suffer-
ing, you may snake what We you please of this letter, Mr. NU-
cockson and many others will vouch for its truth. I refer• the
sufferers to this gentleman, being your Agent, and so sell
known in Nottingham.
I am, Sir, your obliged servant,
28th Aug. 184 I . ANNIS ZENIA MASSENIA.
P. should not do you justice without stating my
relief was almost instantaneous. My eyes became clear and
freed from humour, and by persevering in its use very fre-
quently I am enabled to read small print without the aid of
Glasses, and continue to enj god's greatest blessing—Sight !
free from pain. I have reason , • grateful, and do recom-
mend your Eye Snuff to all I know.

GREAT SELLING OFF, by Dlr. FOSTER, the
ACCOUNTANT.,
MR. FOSTER has instructions to submit for
SALE, in Lots, as prepared for Auction, 27,0001. worth
of LINEN DRAPERY GOODS, being the Stock adver-
tised for Auction on the Premises, CORNER of FLEET-
STREET and FARRINGDON-STREET, trading under
the firm of IIEBBLEWHITE and CO., notice having been
given that an auction is not permitted by the lease.
Mr. Foster, in calling attention to this immense sale of goods,
begs to remind ladies and families that they are not expected to
realise more than half the original cost, the object being to clear
the whole off the premises, and any portion remaining must of
neeessity be removed to his Auction-rooms. Ladies are soli-
cited to make allowances for the awkwardness of the assistants,
being mostly young men from his office, consequently unused
to this method of selling goods over the counter.
The following is about the reductions intended to be made.
The linens being the larger portion, will be reduced as under:—
s. d.

2s. 9d. to 3s. 31. per yard, will be likewise reduced
to 26 yards for

sonic warranted fabrics, will be reduced to 26 yards for 21 0
The sheetings and table-linen require particular notice. The
respectable family trade carried en for thirty years at the esta-
blishment rendered it necessary to keep none but fine and war-
ranted goods, consequently ladies will not be subjected to the
chances usual on selling off stocks of risking the durabiliit v.
Fifty pieces of linen sheeting arc reduced to be sold in the
length only at 4s. 6d. to 10s. 6d. the pair, those at 10s. 6d.
being three yards wide, and real Barnsley manufacture, having
originally cost 2s. 9tl. per yard. Should the length be found in-
convenient a further reduction will be made in the price. The
tablecloths, although of the finest description, are mostly soiled,
consequently the reduction must be immense. Some superb
damask cloths, three yards long, will be sold as low as 6s. 6d.
each ; lots of good linen breakfast cloths will be marked from
Is. to 2s. 6d. each, and about 130 cloths, from three to six
yards long, many worth three to four guineas, will be sold none
higher than fifty shillings.

sive, will be sold, the dress 4 0

sonable t,rice that may be offered.
Mr. Foster would not have undertaken this sale had he not
felt satisfied of the character of the goods to be sold, and ladies
may depend that every article will fully answer the description
given in this advertisement, or at the time of sale. The prin-
cipal part of the stock having been kept in their wholesale ware-
houses, will be found in good condition, and any person buying
in large quantities, no obstacle will exist in the way of price ;
