liVISTONE'S EYE SNUFF.—Under the
Vg Patronage of his late Majesty, h"r Royal Highness the
Duchess of Kent, arid the Lords of the Treasury, is universally
recommended by the Faculty for its efficacy in removing dis-
orders incident to the and Head.
RIGHT RESTORED!--NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE
AND DEAFNESS CURED!
By the most simple, delightful, and fragrant Compound!
Its mode of application is fraught with pleasure ; many thou-
sand cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trifling ex-
pense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary
toi n duce the sufferer to make trial, Kings, Lords, and Com-
mons have used it. The Lords of the Treasury have sanctioned
its use. Their late Majesties, the Duchess of Kent, the most
eminent Oculists, Medical Practitioners—with that gigantic
balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated
Herbaceous Compound. known as " Grimstone's Eye Snuff,"
for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eyes and
Head. G. J. Guthrie, Esq., F.R.S. See J. B. Laehfield,
Esq.'s Letter, Whitehall. Dr. Thomas. Dr. Andrews calls
it a national blessing—see his Reports touching its utility. The
late Mr. Abernethy, with many others, recommend Grim-
stone's Eye Snuff, and call it " Man's best Friend," and the
Studeat's Vade Mecum."—See the many thousand Letters
of Testimonies, of undoubted medical authority, with others of
the first respectability.

Nottingham, 28th Aug., 1841.
This extraordinary cure is attested by Mr. James Wilcockson,
Foreign Snuff and Cigar Merchant, Nottingham.
To Mr. W. Grimstone, 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, London.
Sir,—l feel great pleasure in sending you the particulars of
my case, and the miraculous cure performed en 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. Wilcockson, 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"—l declare has proceeded
from the use of your Eye Snuff. For the sake of those suffer-
ing, you may make what use you please of this letter, Mr. Wil-
cockson and many others will vouch for its truth. I refer the
sufferers to this gentleman, being your Agent, and so well
known in Nottingham.
I am, Sir, your obliged servant,
28th Aug. 1641. ANNIS ZENIA MASSENIA.
P. S.—Sir,—l 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 enjoy God's greatest blessing—Sight !
free from pain. I have reason to be grateful, and do recom-
mend your Eye Snuff to all I know.

DE MONTFORT„—This new novel is destined
to run a career as brilliant as was ever achieved by an
unacknowledged production---" unacknowledged," but not
unsuspected ; for the genius that beams in every page
has already directed conjecture as to the authorship.
As the subject of " De Montfort" is the life and adven-
tures of an English Nobleman of the old school, and as
not only the manners but the actual personages of eighty
years ago are sketched with marvellous vigour and rea-
lity, it has been surmised that the work must have been
printed from a manuscript of that date ; the probability,
however, is, that it is a production of one of the most
eloquent, versatile, and able of living novelists.
NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHORESS OF
" TEMPTATION."—We are requested to state that the
new novel, entitled " The School for Wives," by the
Authoress of " Temptation," is published this day by
Mr. CAburn, of Great Mariborough-street, ,and may now
be had at all the Libraries. Mr. Colburn. has also just pub-
lished " Anne Boleyn," an historical romance, by Mrs.
A. T. Thomson, Authoress of " The Life of Henry
VIII.," " Constance," &c., in 3 vols.—" The Man of
Fortune," a novel, by Mrs. Gore, Authoress of " Mothers
and Daughters," " The Peeress," &c., in 3 vols.—and
" Fathers and Sons," a novel, by Theodore Hook, Esq.,
3 vols., with a Portrait and Memoir of the Author.

THE Ton ET.—A fine Head of Hair.—" The
inestimable gift of the Graces," from- its influence in
giving due effect and expression to :he features, has
been universally sought after. No article for this pur-
pose has ever been favoured with such distinguished
patronage as " Rowland's Macassar Oil," the reputa-
tion of which, for its beautifying and restorative quali-
ties, has been promulgated in all ranks of fashion and
elegance, which the high encomiums and testimonials
of its value amply corroborate ; in dressing the hair,
and arranging it into any desired form of curl or other
decorative formation, the addition of this Oil is essential,
it preserves the coiffure in the heated atmosphere of the
ball-room, and prevents the relaxing effects of damp, or
violent exercise.

DEAF NESS.—Sound Magnifiers, and Invisible
Operative Voice Conductors, to enable persons at an advanced
age, and of old standing extreme deafness, to join in general
conversation, and to catch the sound of a distant low speaker
at a publie assembly; they are the size of a very small gold
seven shilling piece, and when in the cavity of the ears, they
are not in the least perceptible nor more uncomfortable than
having a small piece of fine wool in its place ; they are composed
of a metal to collect sound, peculiar to the Messrs. S. and B.
Solomons themselves ; and although they are so extremely smal:
yet they enable those afflicted with extreme deafness, and
those who are only slightly dull of hearing to hear in every
feoritey.imperfect vision,
respect equal to those of most acute hearing. Messrs. S.

Q CHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE AND
kJ CIVIL ENGINEERING,—An ARCHITECT and
CI VII, ENGINEER lately returned from a professional tour
in Italy, is forming a CLASS for INSTRUCTING YOUNG
GEN I'LEMEN under Fifteen Years of Age, in the FIRST
ELEMENTS of ARCHITECTURE and CIVIL EN-
GINEERING, by a regular and progressive Course of Les-
sons in Drawing, Designing, Estimating, &c., combined with
the advantage possessed by the Advertiser of introducing the
Pupils to the Metropolitan Works now in progresg, thereby
giving them an intimate knowledge of the practice as well as
the theory of building. It is calculated that one year will
more advance the Pupil in the above important Profession than
five of the necessarily irregular practice of an office.
For the convenience of those gentlemen residing in the country,
the Advertiser will receive a very limited number of Pupils
into his house.
