AND DEAFNESS CURED!

By the mast 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. Lachfield,
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
" Student's Vade Mecum."—See the many thousand Letters
of Testimonies, of undoubted medical authority, with others of
the first respectability.

.$4,,-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
believe 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-
cocksor, and many others will vouch for its truth. I refer the
sufferers to this gentleman, being your Agent, and to uell
known in Nottingham.
I am, Sir, your obliged servant,
28th Aug. 1841. ANNIS ZENIA MASSENIA.

P. S.—Sir.—l should not do you justice without stating my
relief was almost instantaneous. Aly 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 sod's greatest blessing—Sight !
free from pain. I have reason , • • v.rateful, and do recom-
mend your Eye Snuff to all I know.

TUE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS.
On SATURDAY, the 14th of May, will be published'
No. 1, of a New Weekly Newspaper, entitled the ILLUSTRA-
TED LONDON NEWS, price 6d. stamped, containing 30
engravings every week, from designs by eminent Artists, being
pictorial representations c f the most interesting events of the
day, in addition to 48 columns of news. The object of this
publication is not merely to register the current events of in-
terest at home, to give lengthened details of occurrences atm ad,
but to heighten the one and make clear the other by the in-
troduction of rictorial representations of the scenes described.
Calling in the aid of pencil to depict that which can only be
hut partially accomplished by the pen, we are but following the
text of a learned writer, who has said that " we can convey to
the mind by means of a picture those circumstances of relative
situation, and peculiar interest, that no written description could
ever achieve, but which the pencil must at all times materially
enhance." The war in Affghanistan, the sad defeats and suf-
ferings of the British Army, and we hope its also glorious tri-
umphs, will open a wide field for pictorial representation, and
our artists will not fail in their task. Foreign circumstances,
however. are but a slight feature in our gallery—the realities of
London life, the physiognomy of its police courts, its theatres,
exhibitions, public amusements, its out-door society, its daily in •
creasing public buildings, its works of art—all that has the charm
of novelty will be brought before the reader in a pictured form,
and will give to the country resident that exact impression of
London progress which no other Journal, by description alone
can convey. Correspondences have been opened in each of
our provincial towns to insure a quick transit of illustrations
of all matters of interest. Racing and sporting scenes, rowing
' and sailing matches, military reviews, public festivals, cattle
shows, and other agricultural assemblies, will be reported with
the pencil as well as by the pen ; while, fur the particular en-
tertainment of our fair countrywomen, engravings of the
fashions, gardening, fancy needlework, sketches of public balls
and concerts, will be from time to time provided. A vigorous
tone will be adopted in politics, freed at the same time from all
party views. Arrangements are made for giving with more
than usual effect the fullest and latest reports of the Parlia-
mentary debates, public meetings, police intelligence, theatrical
information, &c. Critical reviews will be given of all British
and Foreign literary publications of sterling interest. The
latest accounts of markets, &c., with the fullest commercial
information, and all the usual contents. The illustrations are
entirely confided to Messrs. Vizetelly and Co.. and will be en-
graved under their superintendence, to insure the public against
anything of an inferior character being introduced into the
columns of this newspaper.
