the attention of every person subject to indigestion, costiveness,
or other complaints of the stomach and bowels; it is patron-
ized by the Nobility, and acknowledged by the highest Medi-
cal authorities as superior to all others. They are so improved
that Females and Invalids may now use them without the assist-
ance or p tesence of a second person. he above, fitted to a bedet,

workmanship, and fitted with tubes for expor: atit.n, that

SIR WILLIAM BURNETT'S PATENT for
the PRESERVATION OF TIMBER, CANVAS,
CORDAGE, COTTON, WOOLLEN, &c., from DRY ROT,
MILDEW, MOTH, and PREMATURE DECAY.
The Two Testimonials at foot, selected from an immense
number, will afford evidence of the efficacy of this Patent.
16, Upper Soymour-street, Portman-square, Feb. 9,1842.
MY DEAR SIR,—In reply to your question respecting the
effect of your solution upon the sails and awnings of the vessels
of the Niger Expedition, the canvas of which was steeped in
it before they were made, I have much pleasure in being able
to state that they were most effectually preserved from mi:dew,
and this after as severe a trial as canvas could well uneergo,
being alternately exposed, during several months, to heavy
rains and a burning sun, with the thermometer sometimes at
93 deg., and generally much above 80 deg.
I am, my dear Sir,
Sir Wm. Burnett, K.C.11. H. TROTTER, R.N.
• Ramsgate, Dec. 20, HMI.
beg to acquaint you that, agreeably to your requ,st,
I have examined the sails on board the Gull steam light vessel,
the which were prepared with Sir William Burnett's Patent So-
lution, and were put on board in September, 1840, s!nee which
time, they have been kept on the deck, and exposed to the
weather ; notwithstanding which, they are still in as goon a
condition as when first put on board ; they are free from mil-
dew, and have no appearance of any decay whatever. Unpre-
pared sails under similar circumstances would have been in a
decayed state, and rendered quite unserviceable.
I am, Sir, your most obedient humble Servant,

(Signed) R. DAVIS.
Jacob Herbert, Esq., Secretary, Trinity Board.
It is cheat) sad simple in its application. Timber, Deals,
&c., &c., Canvas, Sail., and Ropes will be prepared at the

sand cures hare been accomplished by its use, at a trifling ex-
pense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary

To Mr. W. Grimstone,39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, London.
Sis,—l 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 2a. 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 ine-tiniable
blessing of our life—" Perfect Sight"--I 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 cell
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. 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 ~.f.
