CLAPHAM'S CLOTH HALL,

2, PARADISE-STREET, AfiD 2, CHURCH-STREET,
LIVERPOOL.

TTENIIX CLAPHAM begs leave respectfully to return
171 his most sincere thanks for the great support he has
met with from all classes of society in this great Cott iarlcial
Town.

On commencing business, five years ago., ht did not sup-
pose the patronage could havANtended to what it has in the
time, and cab Only attribute it to his mode i,f transacting
business, viz., by selling the best manufactured Goods in every
branch of the Trade, at the smallest remunerating profit,
combined with the civility and attention of his Assistants,
H. C. has very considerably enlarged his Premises by
uniting the Shop, No. 2, Church-street, (recently occupied
by Mr. Crowther,) with the one in Paradise-street; and his
Friends, he has every reason to believe, will find it much more
to their comfort than when so much limited for room.

His Stock, which now stands A. I. for good quality and
extensive assortment, will, he has no doubt, meet with at).
proval, and convince that what is here stated is Truth, and
not, a mere pail:
Merchants, Captains, and Wholesale Buyers will find a
large Stock in the Wholesale Rooms, Paradi:e•street ; and
as H. C. is in the habit of attending the Manufacturing
Districts every two months, he would have no objection to
purchase Goods for a small per tentage for any respectable
House.

e,MIDDLEWOOD begs respectfully to inform the No-
. bility, Gentry, and the Public, that he has now on
Sale a general assortment of Foreign Fruits, of the best
quality,—as New Turnlat Dates, Figs, Raisins, French
Plums, Black and Green Grapes, of superi9r9riality, Seville
Oranges, for Marmalade, &c. New Jairica Preserved

MESSRS. PERRY and Co., SURGEONS, may he
personally consulted from Nine in the Morning till
'fen at Night, and on Sundays from Nine till Two, at
No. 22, SLATER-S'rREET, LIVERPOOL,
(private entrance first door up the•passage ;)
No. 2, Bale-street, Lower Mosley-street, near to St. Peter's
Church, Manchester, and No. 4, Great Charles-street, Bir-
mingham: of whom may be had (gratis) with each box of
pills their Treatise on Venereal Disease, Gottorrhwa, Meets,
and Stricture, including Practical Observations on Seminal
Weakness, arising from early abuses, so that all persons can
obtnin an immediate Cure, with ease, secrecy, and safety.
It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall lictitns to the
Venereal Disease owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate
men, who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin
the constitution, and cause ulcerations, with blotches on the
head, face, and body, dimness in the sight, noise in the ears,
deafnes-, obstinate Oee:s, and nodes on the shin bones, till
at length a general debility and decay of the constitution
ensues end a melancholy death puts a period to their dread-
tul sufferings.

PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price 2s.
9d. end He. per box, a certain, safe, and the mast speedy re-
medy ever d'scovered for the permcnent and effectual cure of
venereal diseases,
.gonorrhoea, glee's, strictures, semina-
weakness, in the loins, affections or the kidneys, gravel, lum-
bago, local debility, is riLtion of the bladder or urethra, and
other diseases of the urinery passages. frequently performing
a perfect cure in the short space of three days, by one small
pill for a dose, with ease, secresy, and safety. The certainty
with which they are continually administered can be attested
by many thousands. Tne Specific Pills root out every parti-
cle of insidious poison, purifying in their progress the whole
mass of fluids. They not only remove the disease, but reno-
vate by their action the different functions of the body. ex-
pelling the grosser humours, and in a manner so mild and
imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their asto-
nishing and unequalled powers. They neither contain mer-
cury nor any other mineral, and may be taken without the
slightest suspicion of discovery. They require no restraint of
diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business. hut effect a cam
plete cure, without the least exposure to the patient. At any
period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will he well
to have recourse to the Specific Pills, for when taken,before
the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain pre-
ventative, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly.
Messrs. PERRY, Surgeons, continue to direct their stu-
dies to those dreadful debilities arising from the too free and
indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only
occasion a numerous train of nervous affections, and entail
on its votaries all the enervating imbecilities of old age, but
weaken and destroy all the bodily senses, occasioning loss of
imagination, judgment, and memory, indifference and aver-•
sion for all pleasures. In that distressing state'of debility or
deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful habits, exces-
sive driukillg, or any other cause, by which the powers id
the constitution become enfeebles!, they offer a firm, safe, and
speedy restorati n to sound and vigorous health.
, PERRY'S VEGETABLE PILLS are well known for
the certain and effectual remedy of secondary symptoms,
venereal eruptions, pains in the hones, ulcerated sore throat
diseased nose, chronic rheumatism, scrofula, scorbotio end
glandular affections, local and general debility, nocturne
pins in the head sang limbs, depression of spirits, and al
iseases arising from an :impure state of the blood. - •
