TO THE LIVERY OF LONDON.

GztrrtzMEN,
HAVING accepted the flattering invitation of a
numerous and most respectable Body of the Livery, to
become a Candidate for the honour of Representing the City of
London at the ensuing Election, founded upon a minifestatiou
lof their approbation of nay public conduct In six successive Par-
liaments, I take the liberty of respectfully soliciting the favor
of your Vote and Interest to replace me in- that distinguished
and responsible situation, the anxious and arduous duties of
which (should I have the gratification of being.elected) I pledge
myself to discharge with the tame 401441 .zeal, industry, and
independence which acquire4land retained tkeonfidence of my
fellow-citizens during twenty-seven years of "the most eventful
period of the history of my Country%
The considerate indulgence of my Prier& having induced
them to request me not to undertake the duty of a personal
canvass, will, I trust, be accepted as a sufficient apology for that
omission : should, however, the time permit, some of my family
will have the satisfaction of waiting upon .yov, to ofer that
testimonial of respect on my behalf.
I remain, Gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful servant,
London Tavern, Feb. 17, 1820. WM. CURTIS.

APPEAL TO PUBLIC VIRTUE
This day was published, on a large Sheet, price Sixpence, with
thirteen to the dozen ; Thirty Shilling* per Hundred; or Ten
Pounds per Thousand,
GOLDEN -RULES FOR THE ELECTORS OF
THE UNITED KINGDOM : Explaining their Consti-
tutional Rights and abstract Duties; and pointing out the Can-
didates who ought, and who ought not, to be preferred.
By SIR RICHARD PHILLIPS,
Late Sherriff of London and Middlesex.
There has also been published, by the same Author, in the sante
popular form, and at the same price, which may, if cleared,
be assorted with the above,

I. GOLDEN RULES for JURYMEN ; which ought to be
liberally distributed by patriotic Persons, previous to all Assizes.
IL GOLDEN RULES for MAGISTRATES and SHER-
RIFFS ; which ought to be posted in all Police °Moe' ainl-Jusl
tice Rooms.

DR. JAMES'S POWDER, AND ANALRPTIC PILLS.
THE Public are respectfully reminded that the
11 Sale of the above Medicines, invented by my Grand-
father, Dr. James, is removed from the late Mr. Newbery's,
to the house of Messrs. Butlers', 4, Cheapside, London, where
they can alone be had genuine. It becomes the more necessary
occasionally to recal this to the mind of the Public, as the sons
of my late Agent, are now vending compositions of their own
manufacture, as Dr. James's Medicines; and, from the length
of time dlr. Newbery was supplied with the Genuine Medi-
cines by my Family, purchasers may be IA erroneously to sup-
pose, that that supply is still continu.xi. It only remains for
me positively to assure the Faculty and Public in general, that
all the Fever Powders and Analeptic Pills sold by Mr. Newbery
during the time he-was continued as Agent, were prepared ex-
clusively by my Family, and sent to him for sale as Agent only,
as they now are to -Messrs. Butlers'. To guard against the ill
effects of spurious Medicines, purchasers are requested to ob-
serve carefully, that every Box of Pills, and every Bottle and
Packet of Powder, new bears a plain Government Stamp, and
a Label saved with my name. R. G. G. JAMES.

THE INVITATION ACCEPTED; •
OR, THE UNWELCOME VISITANT&

A TAVERN INCIDENT.

AN Inn, whose symbolic is fram' cl to perplex,
A fam'd ra►e arts—the " Swan with Two Necks,"

A Traveller lately arriv'd at ;
An incident there Weals:Ws BLACKING supplied,
•
That seem'd to the JLT as if Whim was allied,
And Humour each event conniv'd at.
Of Pain, the fierce Imp, on our Traveller's toes
Had fix'd all the night, when two others arose,
And rjearn'd with the morn in the Boots' glossy hie;
" Some Devil,"—and dashing the curtains aside,
" Relieve me, or take me!" in anguish be cried ; •
His image each Boot in, now add on his view,
And Heralds infernal they seem'd ; as if meant
To usher their Master's portentous approach :
Just then, on the hearth, by mistaken descent,
There chanc'd, unobserv'd, a young sweep to encroach,
The Traveller gaz'd on the Boots all aghast,
"These felkm • ' an eye on the shades as he cast,
He said, " in the Jet new assuming their station,
" Are sent indicating a worse visitation !
" 0 curse on the pain that excited a cry !
" These Imps in the Boots say their Master is nigh !"
" My Master is coining !"—and forth stepp'd young sweep,
" He is !—then you three may his company keep !"
And quick, in dismay, from the chamber he darted;
Nor pans d, till apartment the furthermost pining,
No trace of kis torture so recent, remaining!—

One poor little Devil, the Sweep-boy departed ;
The ethers the Boots in retaining their station,
The mild Jetty visions of Wasaates creation !
This easy Shining and brilliant BLacamo, prepared by
