GENUINE SYRUP OF DE VELNOS.
THE following Letter is an additional and recent
Testimony in proof of the peculiar benefit attendant on the
use of the Syrup :

" MADAM, " Half-Acre, Branford, January 19, 1826.
" Fully convinced of the efficacy of your it Medicine, I ant
Induced to make the following case known, for the benefit of those
who may be suffering under similar allictiOn. My daughter had a
severe attack of Typhus Fever in the autumn of 1824 ; bee head
was shaved, and immediately after it broke out, and formed an
attire scab (so that her ears were scarcely visible), at the same
time discharging a watery humour all over the head, with a thick
matter out of the hole of each ear. After taking a few bottles of
the Syrup, she was restored to perfect health, in which she still
remains; another autumn having passed, without the least imp-
tom of a relapse. In addition to the foregoing, I cannot but
acknowledge that, ois several occasions, • I have received the
greatest benefit from taking the Syrup, but perticukity on the
occasion of an ulcerated leg, aoessiaoed by a seem blow. I beg
to add, if I can in any way be serviceable, as a reference* in
recommending the Syrup, I shall feel it a duty I owe,knirwing
the efficacy of it in many instances.
I am, Madam, your's respectfully, .
" W. t RANIELIN.
" To Mrs. Canham, SS, Berner'eaceet."
The great success of this Medicine, in Scorbutic, Scrophaloss,
and Syphilitit complaints, Pains and Swellings of the Liver, die-
eased Skin and Glands, and ill disorders arising from impure ,
blood, is now too well known to require a detailed entuneration.-1
As, however, imposture, like envy, too closely follows the heels of
merit, and pretensions to imitate the Syrup, to improve it, or to
have discovered something of similar efficacy, may surprise the
unwary, and rainy mislead the ignorant, Mrs. Cask= owes it in
gratitude to the Public to give warning of these dangers • and to
refer to those proofs of virtues and efikaey of her Medicine, to
be found in her publications, which surpass io camber, respect..
ability, and authenticity, any testimonies of a similar kind _that
have ever been produced. The effects of the GENUINE VE-
GETABLE SYRUP are such ascot to interrupt either business
or pleasure; it operates on the animal juices, and simply requires
the common restraint of moderation in diet. It is a safe but pow.
erful substitute for Mercury, and removes all those disease.. .which
an unsuccessful use of that mineral .cations.

Th. gennhie Medicine has a label allied to each bottle, with the
signature, " M. CANHAIt: in the hand-writing of the Proprietor,
by 'whom it is sold, as it was by her Uneb and her Husband, at
Berner's.street, at 13s. a bold*: and; by her appointment, at
Me. Males 's, 196, Bishopsgue.ureet-Withunt; abo, by Mrs.

other matter, k is expAient that
item-bract-C.4th cease to be the °Meth ' fo'r the tarition
of costs; eseept as to the costs of approving and appoint-
ing Iteceivers, Managers, and Consignees and Com-
niitteki of Len atiCs' 'Estates, and of passing their respec-
tive accounts.

143. That it is expedient that the taxation of all other costs
should be transferred to the Six Clerks I. Chaneery, whom time is
not fully occupied by their 'present employment, and. who, upon
being relay.td from all attendance in Court, will be adequate to the
discharge of this new duty.
144. 'l'h it, for the relief of the Six Clerks, one of
the Entei ing Regiitrars do at all times attend the Lord
.Chancellor's Court, during its sitting, for the purpose
of publicly reading to the Court depositions, deeds,
documents, and papers, as occasion miy require; and
that the other entering Registrars do, in like manner,
attend the Vice-Chancellor's Count, during its sitting, I
for the same purpose ; and that one of the Secretaries
of causes at the Rolls, do in like manner, and for the
same purposes, attend the Court of the Master of the
R lls during its sitting.
145. That, inasmuch as several of the present Six
Clerks ee either lar advanced,in years, or of infirm
health, and may not be equal to the great additional
labour which will be thrown upon them by the duty of
taxing costs, it appears to be reasonable that they should
be permitted to retire from such offices, and the other
minor offices which have been constantly held there.
with, upon being allowed annual provisions (during the
terms of thtir lives) equivalent to their emoluments,
taken on an average of the last three years.
146. That the Lord High Chancellor, the Master of the Rolla,
and the Vice-Chancellor, do take into consideration the alterations
here proposed, in the Orates of the Six Clerks, and entering Regis-
trars, and Secretaries of the Bolls, and do thereupon suggest what
shall appear to be reasonable with respect to the future emoluments
of these officers. •
147. That the same rule which is now applied in the taxation of
coin, as bet Ween *diamond sliest, be applied also in the taxation
of costs as between puny otsdportyi unless in the case of costs be-
tween party and party any such costs shall appear to ham been
unnecessarily-or unreasonably incurred.
148. That upon all orders for payment of costs, or
where a party is entitled to costs, according to the course
of the Court, there the party to pay the costs shall, at
the same time, alto pay the further costs occasioned by
the process to enforce the payment-of the costs; the
avnbunt of such. former costs being certified by the
Clerk in Court of the party to receive the costs.
149. That where a Writ of Execution of a Decree
or Order is duly issued, the party charged by the Decree
or Order shall, in all cases, pay the costs of the Writ
of Execution, although it shall not become necessary to
issue an attachment to enforce obedience thereto, such
costs to be certified by the Clerk in Court of the party
to receive the same.
150. That in all cases where an order Nisi is made,
that a person named do stand committed, unless he do
an act specified, there the costs of such Order Nisi shall
be paid by such person, although he d• es the act in
obedience thereto without former order, and whether
.such person be or not a party to the suit, such costs to
be certified by the Clerk in Court tithe party to re.
celve the same. •

151. That the penal sum in the hood given as a security to an-
swer costs, ia a suit where the plaintiff is out of the jurisdiction of
the Court, shall be increased from 40/. to 1001.
152. hat whenever costs areordered to be paid by a person who
is not a party to a came, or where an order is made in bankruptcy
for the
.payment of costs; theft the payment of such costs shall be
enforced by suLpatia and attachment, in I.ke manner as the pay-
ment of costs is enforced against a party to a cause.
153. Tn.it the deposit upon exceptions to the Mas-
ter's report shall be 'increased from 51. to 1(1. to be paid
to the adverse party, if the exceptions shall be over-
ruleJ, and in such case the exceptant shall also pay such

instructions
a bill be in &tore considered w a tiarabate that, assuming the in.
atrocious to be correct, it is not unfit that a bishould be filed.
158. That where the Lime Sdcitor is employed for
'two or more defendants, and separate answers are filed,
there, upon taxation of-such' Sircitor's bill, whether be-
tween Solicitor and client, or between party and party
the taxing officer shall judge of the propriety of the
solicitor's conduct in this respect, and shall allow or
disallow according to the costs of such separate an-
swers ; and his deci•ion thereupon shall be final.
159. That in all cases where a person, w )c, is not a
party, appears upon any proceeding, ‘t licher in a cause
or in any other matter. their service upon the eolic.tor
in London, by whom he appear!, whether such solicitor
act as principal or as agent for a solicitor in the coun-
try, shall be deemed go. id service on such party, unless
in matter of contempt:

160. That there be, at least, two clear days between the time of
service of the notice, and the day of bearing of every special motion;
and at least two clear days between the time of service and the day
of heating of even, petition.
161. That in all cases of Orders nisi to confirm Reports, the
same shall be served on the Clerk in Court without order. and that
such order Ishii may be obtained upon petition, as well as by motion.
162. That the order nisi fur dissolving the common injunction
may be obtained upon petition as well as upon motion; and dal
such order be served two clear days before the seal.
163. That where a plaintiff reads any part of the
answer of the defendant, as evidence, there the defendant

shall be entitled to have also teed as evidence any other
part of his answer, which explains or qualifies the passage
read by the plaintiff, although it be not grammatically
connected as a member of the same sentence; but, if
such explanation or qualification, whether connected or
not as a member of the same sentence, affirms a fact,
the defendant shall not have the benefit of such fact, is
evidence, without proving t'-e same; unless it appear,
upon the answer, that under the circumtances, sec
fact is not capable of proof ; it being understood that
this rule does not prejudice the present t ight of the Court
to refer to the whole answer • or-the present right tithe
defendant, in certain proceedings, to have the whole
answer read to the Cows.
164. That the present rure, that the courts of law
cannot, on an action at Law, award a.comasission for .

the examination of witnesses who are resident abroad,
unless the party not seeking the commission consents to
she application, and the necessary consequence that the
party desiring such commission. is compelled to resort
to a court of equity, in order to obtain it, where the
other party does not give his consent—appears to us to
occasion delay and expense, which may well be avoided;
and thatin future, the judges of the law should be in-
vested with full authority, at their discretion, to award
such commission, at the request of plaintiff odefendant,
although the other party do not consent thereto • and
that such commission should no longer be awarded by
courts of equity, unless in cases where the actual pur-
pose of the bill is to obtain a discovery also ; and each
purpose shall be verified by an affidavit, to be annexed
to the bill. _ _

165. That when and as often as it shall appear ex-
pedient to the Lord High Chancellor or Lord Keeper,
in respect of the weight and pressure of business de-
pending in the Court of Chancery, it shall balm/fat
for the Lord High Chancellor, or Lord Keeler. =gm

corris, to award and grant such a writ accordingly,
