DR. JAMES'S POWDER.
THE celebrity of this Medicine, and its decided OE:
cacy is more than ever established, by the greatly increased
introduction of it into the prescriptions of the most eminent Phy-
sicians at the present time. For the guidance of those persons who
are oat of the reach of medical advice, each Packet is enclosed with
foil directions for its use. In cases of Fever it will often effect a
owe in a few hours, especially when freely girt u, and at the outset
of the disease. It is administered with equal success in all attacks
of Measles, St. Anthony's Fire, Sore Throat, Pleurisy, and ltheu-
. matism ; but as Colds and Catarrhs panake more or less of inflam-
matory symptoms, this Powd.r is peculiarly efficacious in cutting
short their duration; which, however barmitss they may be
thought, often terminate in Pulmonary affections, the fatal conic-
qoences of which ate but too well known. As an Alterative in
Chronic Complaints, it is used with peculiar success.
Dr. JAMES'S Pownen continues to be prepared by Messrs. New

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.
SIR
—I pledge myself in the most unqualified manners
to prove to the satisfaction of any Gentiewnwho may favour
me with a call, that unless the contract entered into by Subscribers,
is so framed as to bind than, their Heirs, Executors, and Admi-
nistrators, for all the instalments of their hares, notwithstanding a
transfer of them, before the whole of the calls, due thereon shall
have been made, such contract is not a compliance with the Standing
Order of the ouse of Lords, No. 192. It is unnecessary to eats
trovert the opinions of the' Attorney,General, and the other Bar,,
rimers consulted by Messrs. KING tlld LIMON, so far as they go,
and I should not presume to do it ; but it is quite clear that the House
of Lords will (if they allow the present contract to stand, and its
effect be as contended for). Insist upon the insertion of a Clause in
the Bill, rendering the Contractorspermanently liable ; and whether
such Contractors are liable, as the Deed is at present framed, is of
little consequence, because they will undoubtedly he' so, when the
Bill passes into.a law.—l am, Sir, your obedient Several

TO THE NOBILITY, GENTRY, AND PUBLIC OF THE
UNITED KINGDOM.
jrOSEPH COOPER and SON, Looking-Glass gni
Furniture Warehouse, No. 93, Bkhopsgate-street Within.—
As general traders' in our particular line, we have for half a century
given especial satisfaction to a highly respectable and indulgent con•
nection, to whom we take this public opportunity of expressing our
salmis and determined intention to merit a continuation of their
(more patronage.
With the change of the times and circumstances; however, which
have served to give a new feature to the speculation of trade, we
maw necessarily vary our. arrangements in business ; indeed it has
become the more imperative on Men of Capital and influence in:
their respective circles to consult the public necessities, because,
wsingeo the change in the value of property, the manufacturer and,
the artisan arc now suffering from the severe competition existing in
regard to prices, and because too many individuals make price more.
.than quality the leading object in view. •
This state of things has given rise to a class of speculators who,
have endeavoured to benefit themselves, by offering goods of very
inferior manufacture, which, though apparently -cheap, yield 'the
greater profit; they are chewy sad decorated, but manufactured
without regard to durability. and consequently prove in the result,
a serious disappointment to the purchaser.
.There has also existed an opposite aureate; another clam of
Tradesmen-have made such an exorbitant demand far their articles,
os to create surprise is the minds of purchasers bow the great dis-
parity in. the charge of different bosses can be setiefeetwily ex-
plained ; we eta leave the geessionais it rests, and enter upon our
more immediate subject.
To be just in our duelings as Tradesmen, we must haves pro%
but we shall be satisfied wish a moderate one, and therefore step
between those Eetablishmeots who offer the inferior manufactured
Furniture without regard to its quality, and those on the contrary
Manse extraordinary charges so justly alarm the prudent buyer ; by
employing none but first-rate workmen, give them wages-suitable to
the times as they really are, and engage our Capital in thepurchase
of none but the best materials, and offer the character and credit
of an olfestablisbed House to the more immediate patronage of the
Nobility, Gentry, and Public of the United Cinedona.
JOSEPH COOPER and SeN, its thus offering the nature of
their business to notice, trust they shell not be eonsideral as at-
tempting what they cannot maintain and support, but prow that for
Splendour, Taste, and Solidity, no Establishment in she Metropolis
an surpass them, and at prices peculialy commanding. Their
Warehouse will be found to coating every deadpans of the best

of Silk Dmmisks, Tabourer, &c. which, in consequence of the
reduced duty on Silk, they are now enabled to offer on Terms so
conmanatively moderate, as must establish this magnificent descrip-
tion of Furniture for Drawing Rooms, Boudoirs, Saloons, he. in

SALES 111( AUCTION, APPRAISING, AND HOUSE
AGENCY.
They still continue to REGISTER ESTATES and HOUSES ,
for SALE in any part of the Kingdom, and trust that few Con-
cerns in the Metropolis arising from their long ewablishment, pos-
sess more extensive connections for the disposal of property. House-
hold Furniture purchased at liberal Prices, or removed to coave-
nicnt situations for disposal, if Salmon the premises are objected to.

immediate substaaca of their arrangements, most confidently affirm
that their prices offer a most important reduction for the advantage
of immediate payment, which they shall be glad to attest by re-
ference to some of the first families in the Kingdom, which is the
best proof of integrity and respectability; and once more beg to-eo.
tick the general patronage of the Public.
