PATENT PARAGON CAMPTIME LAMPS.
The perfection of these Lamps over the Vesta has been
happily attained by the invention of two parallel fiat rings—a larger
and a smaller forming a cone round the margin of the wick, which
cause a rapid reverberation of air against the flame—thus condensing
every particle of volatilized vapour, it is free from smoke or smell,
having perfect combustion, and In full action, emits a light equal to
16 wax candles.

echerche and new patterns, comprising Ormolu, China, Glass, and
Opal.

ON AND MANCHESTER
DIRECT INDEPENDENT RAILWAY (RE-
MINGTON'S LINE).
If the application of the railway system in England
had to commence de novo, and projectors and the Legis-
lature had the advantage of their present experience to
guide them, it is most certain that the first object at
which they would aim would be the foundation of a
number of direct trunk lii3es, connecting the leading
towns of the empire with the metropolis and each other,
leaving less important places to be accommodated with
branches diverging from such trunks. It is deeply to be
regretted that this course was not adopted, and at the
same time security taken for the greatest possible amount
of convenience and cheapness being conceded to the
public. By the foundation of such lines, over which the
entire traffic between the terminus of each must of neces-
sity have passed, we should have been saved from the host
of competing projects which have risen up on every side,
one dovetailed into another, with all the acknowledged
evils and inconveniences of separate managements, which
threaten ultimately to render a system which, properly
and judiciously carried out, would have been a bleseirg,
one of lamentable public inefficiency and of individual
loss. It is somewhat late in the day, certainly, to at-
tempt to repair the consequences of past error in this
matter. So far, however, as the communication between
Manchester and the metropolis is concerned, we observe
that the effort is making by the revival of a project,
under the above name, whick was brought forward last
autumn and very strongly supported, although subse•
fluently shelved for want of time to comply with the

terminus being reduced to one hundred and seventy-
seven miles), and the economy with which it is capable
e,f being worked. It is proposed to adopt upon it the
broad gauge and the atmospheric mode of traction, by
which it is assumed that the entire journey may be
safely performed in three hours and a half. The line .of
country through which,it runs is nearly that of the old
coach road • from Manchester to London. A. very in..

[ADVERTIS EN EN T.]
TAWELL'S TRIAL.
TO THE EDITOR.
Sin,---We beg to call the attention of the public to
the following important admission made .by Dr. Champ-
neys, the principal medical witness on Tawell's trial. It
is as follows :

" The smalleEt dose of prussic acid which is reported
to have caused death was the case of seven patients in
one of our hospitals. A -dose of seven-tenths of a grain
was given to each patient, and they all died in from
thirty minutes to three-quarters of an hour."
People of England ! This is the evidence of the
doctors themselves.' It came out on cross-examinati,:n
by Mr. Kelly, the eminent counsel. It is a pretty speci-
men of the' manner in which poor patients are experi-
mented upon in the hospitals. We ask, is it not dis-
graceful ? But why, after such experience of the
deadly character of prussic acid, do our doctors
still hold it out to the world as a medicine when
" medicinally" administered by them, as they call
it, which means, after the fee has been paid for "ad-
vice?" * We feel satisfied that thousands are annually
sent to their graves by such poisons in the hands of
inexperienced practitioners, but their diplomas save
them harmless. The more experienced doctors know
perhaps how to give them in doses not to kill at once,
but as to their being a cure for any disease, it is, we feel
assured, perfectly untrue. Is there not a noble-minded
Member of the Legislature to be found, wino will step in
and prevent the havoc which is made in human life by
these poisons administered " medicinally," by calling for
a full investigation of the subject? Wicked persons (as
in Tavvell's and Bellanj's cases), when such poisons are
found upon them, say, " Oh, I take them ' medicinally,'
by the advice of my doctor," and produce a prescription
to that effect : thus at once, in a great measure, setting
justice at defiance. We repeat, let there be a full inquiry
into this grave and important question.
You will bear in mind that both Tawell and Bellany
had (like Doctors) a knowledge of poisons. Ilygeists
do not possess any knowledge of these deadly poisons—
they look upon them as at irreconcilable war with the
health and life of man—they only possess a knowledge
of strictly medicinal substances, which the Vegetable
Universal Medicine decidedly is ; hence the reason that
people can take it in almost any quantity with perfect
success. If Tawell had possessed a diploma, and acted
professionally, it would have been impossible to have
convicted him.

We are, Sir, your obedient servants,
MORISON and Co.,
For and on behalf of the body of Hygeists.
British College of Health, New•road,
London, June 26, 1845.
• The reasons why Doctors hold out poisons as medicines
are, that the public may be obliged to go to them for " Ad-
vice;"—such reasons are made more palpable by the two prints
showing the Fallacy of the Organic Theory under all its forms,
to be had of all the Hygeian Agents, price 6d. or Is. coloured.
No person who cares for his health should be without these
Prints. Once do away with poisons as medicines, and the
trade of Doctors will be at an end, and not till then
