1/f EDICAL TESTIMONIAL IN FAVOUR OF DR.
1.11. BARKER'S GOUT AND RHEUMATISM PILLS.
• To Dr. BARKER, Edinburgh.
Largs, 14th December, 1835.
Dear Sir,—l willingly bear testimony to many most re-
markable cures of Gout and Rheumatism, which have lately
come under my observation, by your very singular and ef-
fective remedy, and, what adds much, to its value, is its
never-failing salutary effects on the gefteral health.—l am,
&c. J. CARNIE, M.D.
And as a further proof of the efficacy of these celebrated
PILLS, attention to the following letter is respectfully re-
quested :

Hopton, Derbyshire, 4th March, 1838.
My Dear Sir,—About the middle of January last, I was
attacked by the Gout, and after allowing it to run i4s course
for a few days till it got into my knee, elbow, shoulders,
hand and wrist, and completely disabled me, I began a course
of your Pills, The day after I began to take them the pain
ceased. In less than five days I was out of bed, walked
down stairs without assistance, and was soon out of doors
following my usual occupations. The effect your Pills have
upon me is to make (for the time) a complete cure, as the
complaint passes off without leaving the least degree of de-
crepitude or weakness, or producing the slightest inconve-
nience to the general system. I have given away many of
my boxes of Pills, as every one who sees the benefit I derive
from them is anxious to have so good a remedy. Send me
two dozen of boxes, part of which I send to a friend in
Milan. As it may be of use to yourself and the Gouty
world at large that you should add my testimony to the
many you already possess to the efficacy of your Pills, you
are at liberty to publish this letter in any way you think
proper. Believe me your truly obliged friend,
PHILIP GELL.
These Pills are prepared by Dr. BARKER, Edinburgh, and
sold in Boxes at 2s. 9d. each by all respectable Druggists
and Patent Medicine Venders throughout the kingdom ; and
sold in Liverpool, Chester, Warrington, Manchester, Roch-
dale, Halifax, Leeds, York, Hull, Newcastle, Lancaster,
Preston, Dublin, Belfast, &c., and wholesale by all the
Patent Medicine houses in London,

AT AND J. FIGGINS, TYPE-FOUNDERS, beg leave
V • most respectfully to draw the attention of the Pro-
prietors of Newspapers, and Printers in general, to the
appearance of the STANDARD, the new Types upon which it
is this day printed having been cast at their Foundry.
V. and J. F. flatter thezugelves that, in beauty and unifor-
mity, they have never been surpassed, and beg to assure the
trade that the principle upon which these Founts are cut, and
the Metal with which they are cast, will insure Durability.
Upon this important point, V. and J. F. are anxious that the
wear of these Types may be considered a test of the general
character of their manufacture, and hope, in course of time,
to be favoured with the confidence of the Liverpool trade in
a degree equal to that which they have enjoyed in London for
nearly fifty years, during which period they have had the ho-
nour of supplying a great portion of the Metropolitan Daily
and Weekly Journals, the Proprietors of which can bear
testimony to the superiority of the Type, in that most essen-
tial quality, DURABILITY. In conclusion, V. and J. P. beg
leave most earnestly, but respectfully, to solicit the patronage
of the Proprietors of the Liverpool Papers.
N.B.—Founts, of any weight, ready for delivery at a few
day's notice.

And filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Marmoratum.

AINTREE

Lord STANLEY, _
Sir T. S. M. STANLEY, Bt.
WILLIAM BLUNDELL, Esq.

MoNs. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment
permanently at No. 70, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from
Iderry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De-
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the
least pain, heat, or pressure; it is placed into the cavity in
an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre-
venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro-
greis of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction
unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell
into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping
up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of
the breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums, there
are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally
prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss
of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It
affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is
the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so
affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them,
that they can effectually remove this eestnictive complaint
by a single application, without the slightest pain.
Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed
from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or
giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an-
swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation,
remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken
out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,—
at the following Paris charges :
A single Artificial Tooth
A complete Set
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine
gold plate
An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal-
lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first
style, with fine gold sockets, usually
charged 40 guineas
Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or
mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.
Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled to fit the mouth,
and restored equal in beauty and durability to their original
state. Attendance from Nine till Seven, and on Sundays
from Nine till Tivo.

In retiring from the above business T. G. and Co. feel it
their duty to return their best acknowledgments for the kind

which he purposes to conduct his business, will be found
worthy the continued support of the Friends of the late firm.

regret that the result was not more successful. He regrets
it the more when he reflects that their efforts in his behalf
could not be seconded, as they ought to have been, by his
own personal exertions. At the same time, no circumstance
connected with the Election, or with its result, can diminish
his sense of obligation for their kind and valued support.

THE continued indisposition of Mr. WILLIAM LYNN,
the Proprietor of the Aintree Race-course, under whose
excellent management the Liverpool Races have acquired
such a pre-eminence in the sporting world, compels him to
retire from the field of active operations, for the purpose of
recruiting his health.

A number of the most influential Noblemen and Gentle-
men, patrons of the turf, anxious that the Liverpool Meet-
ings should be conducted with the same respectability and
spirit by which they have hitherto been distinguished, think
it a fitting opportunity for placing the future arrangements
of the Races on a more secure and permanent footing than
individual enterprize, however great, could effect. By this
means a concentration of powerful patronage, combined with
active individual interest and enterprise, will be secured ; a
result which must ensure to the undertaking even a greater
share of success than it has yet experienced.
In accordance with the above feeling, the following ar-
rangements have been made for carrying the purpose into
effect :_

-71;11e Property will be divided into 1,000 Proprietorships, at
Twenty-five pounds each.
Each Proprietor will be entitled to a transferable Silver
Ticket of admission to the Grand Stand at all Racing Meet-
ings, in addition to his proportion of the annual profits ; the
Silver Ticket alone will realize a per tentage of near 10 per
cent. The present annual income and expenditure, in the
possession of Mr. HUNTER, of the firm of Messrs. Shackle.
ton, Wright, and Hunter, Solicitors, who has kept the ac-
counts of the concern since its establishment, will show, that
the direct profits will yield a handsome return for the capital
invested.
Each Subscriber, upon paying the suns of £lO, and ex-
ecuting the deed of settlement at the office of Messrs.
SHACKLETON, WRIGHT, and HUNTER, to have delivered to
him a ticket which will entitle him to a free admission on
the Grand Stand at the next ensuing Races ; and upon pay-
ment of the remainder, viz., £l5 to be paid within twelve
months, as the Directors shall order, each Subscribes- shall
have a silver ticket, anti a certificate of proprietorship.
Application for Proprietors' tickets to be made to Messrs.
SHACKLETON, WRIGHT, and HUNTER, Brunswick-street,
and Messrs. DANIEL and JOHN NEILSON, Share Brokers,
Liverpool.
_ _

A holder of less than five Proprietors' tickets, to have one
vote, of five two votes, and for every further five silver
tickets beyond that number an additional vote.
The affairs of the Race Course to be under the manage-
ment of two Committees, to be chosen in the manner set
forth in the deed of settlement.

The one Committee selected from Noblemen and Gentle-
men connected with the turf, to be called the Racing Com-
mittee, who shall have the fixing of all races ; the other
Committee to have the management of the affairs of the
Race Course, &c., and to be called Directors ; and to be
chosen from the body or Subscribers generally.
The property to be vested in the five Trustees named
above.

A SOUTH AMERICAN MILLIONAIRE. I had very often
heard of Candioti ; who had never been in this country. He
is the very prince of Gushos, lord of 300 square leagues of
territory, owner of 250,000 head of horned cattle, master of
300,000 horses and mules, and more than a million and a
half of dollars, laid up. in his coffers in, ounces of gold im-
ported from Peru.—Letters on Parauay.
"You are the very person I wanted," said a lady at a ball the

A man was tried at the Old Baily for stealing a pair of boots

An unlucky supercargo in China, who made his fir t. dinner
at Canton, was enjoying a savoury hash ; unable to guess
what might be the ingredients, he turned to the waiter, a
black, ignorant of English, and pointing to the dish, said, in

shook his head in the negative, answering " Bow, wow, wow."
" Boy, run up stairs to No. —, and bring. down row bag-
gage—hurry, I'm about moving," said a tall A/lanai-meat-
axe-looking person to a waiter, at one of our crack hotels
" What is your baggage, master, and were is it?" " Why,
three pistols, a pack of cards,, a Bowie knife, and one shirt.
You'll find them all under my pillow."—Picayttae.

the same time threatening to horsewhip him if he eier

When the late Lord Erskine, then Mr. Erskine, was Prst
ealled to the bar, he was very much disliked, and a goefaalcial
quizzed by his brethren of the long robe. Some of rhepainid
a certain judge, who made himself very unpopular to.fhailar
in aeneral, that Mr. Erskine was going to publish an editien
of acoke on Littleton in verse ; and one day his loralehipAold
Mr. Erskine what he had heard, and asked him: for aasipeei-
ne nof hi composition, ni
when he iraediatelv gave the fol-
loi
wi
nginipromptu
That man that lioldeth lands in fee,
Need neither to quake nor to quiver,
For he holdeth the same, "as how, do you see,"
To him and his heirs for ever.
The laugh was against the judge, and he never forgatre Mr.
Erskine ; for the words "as how, do ye see," was a phraaa
which was used by his lordship on every occasion, and he
considered himself greatly insulted. .
THE ALPS.—On the route of Mont Cenis, Roche Melon,
one of the Alps, is crowned with a chapel where mass :is
yearly said. There is something romantic in the idea; of
making one of the most savage and inaccessible spots in na-
ture a proselyte to Christianity, and also in the fact of ita
having been the vow of a prisoner in the Holy Land, who had
probably constantly presented to his mind as the gaol of his
release the summit of this mountain, which was the most
striking object to him in Piedmont, the land of his nativity ;
and if he reached not the Jerusalem of the Holy .Land, this
new one of his fancy one.founded in the air on the plain of
Mont Cenis ; tall, gaunt, black crucifixes, the sublime stand-
ard of heaven, show the way— amid the sublimity of earth--
the way to Rome, which terrible to Hannibal and to Napo-
leon, is easy to the church militant. Chapels hang over the
yawning gulf—places of refuge in the storm, as if to say Cliriat
was the only salvation in danger ; but here and there sinister
crosses reveal to the memory the place where the toyaget4r
has fallen under the strokes of homicidiary iron, and shows
that there was no protection against the passions of man:—
Metropolitan Magazine.
HAND-WRITINGS OP EMINENT MEN.—It is generally be-
lieved that men of genius write in a very obscure, infirm, and
eccentric character, such as Byron, Chalmers, Jeffrey,
Bonaparte. Washington wrote a fair, even, manly, straight-
forward line, every letter legible and distinct ; Jefferson's
hand-writing was bold and masculine ; Bonaparte wrote .a
most unreasonable scrawl ; Burke's was uneven and hurried ;
Hamilton wrote a light running-hand sparing of ink Can-
fling's penmanship has a chaste and classical appearance ;
Brougham writes a hasty hand, but with a good pen, and full
of ink ; Peel writes with a stiff pen, but with considerable
taste and firmness ; Dr. Chalmers writes as if he used tlae
feather end dipped in ink—a real scrawl •W. Irving writaan
perfect lawyer's hand, as though he wished no one to reattit
but himself ; Jeffrey wrote as if he wrote against time, with
a stick dipped in ink, nothing so unintelligible ; Crabbers
hand-writing was described as very bad also ; and Sir Har-
court Lee's so much so that it has been compared to the legs
of a spider, ;n ink, dancing on a wall,

It will be superfluous to enumerate the many advantages
which the Aintree Race Course possesses over every other
in this part of the kingdom, whether considered with refer-
ence to the splendour of the buildings, the extent and beauty
of the course itself, or its locality, so central for all the nor-
thern supporters of the turf. It is unquestionable, however,
that, under a judicious arrangement, like the one now pro-
posed, these advantages, might be greatly extended, and be
made to increase with each succeeding year.
A most important alteration has already been made by the
Racing Committee ; that is, the removal of the Heaton
Park Races to Liverpool, as an Autumn Meeting, which
must unquestionably add very materially to its future cele-
brity and value.

Mr. WM. LYNN, in calling the attention of the Public
to the above advertisement, begs to observe, that whilst his
state of health precludes the possibility of his continuing the
unremitting exertions he has hitherto devoted to the Liver-
pool Races, he hopes (it being his intention to continue a
Proprietor) to be enabled to render his best assistance to the
Directors in carrying out the proposed plans of the Noble-
men and Gentlemen forming the Racing Committee.
Mr. L. begs further to observe to the Subscribers, that
their first free admission to the Grand Stand will be at the
ensuing Great Steeple Chase, Ticke:3 for which will be deli-
vered to them, on paying the first instalment of Ten Pounds.
