WARDLE'S ESSENCE OF ANCHOVIES.
\ATHIL ST science is making its rapid strides in the various
V improvements that daily present themselves before the
public eye, the health, palate, and feelings of the epicurean,
valetudinarian, or the delicate invalid, appear by the many to
ty
have been overlooked, such however 'is not the case with the
whole, as this elegant and power y concentrated essence
(the result of years' unwearied ex tion) will clearly demon-
strate. As a Fish Sauce, it is superior to any ancient or
modern, and the proprietor challenges all and every compe-
tition ; for the immediate production of Sandwiches it stands
unequalled, and Anchovy Paste, which makers themselves
admit will not keep, is, by it entirely superseded. It is
strongly and confidently recommended to Merchants, Cap-
tains, and others going abroad, not being acted upon or in
any way injured by time or climate.
Prepared only by H. WARDLE, 18, Hanlver-street, Liver-
pool, and sold at the Apothecaries' Hall ; and also by Wood-
ville, Fisher, Swift, (late Beatson,) Bold-street; Sudlow,
Johnson, Church-street; Butler and. Colgithoun Wade's,

SCURVY in the GUMS EFFECTUALLY REMOVED.
ARTIFIFICIAL TEETH SUPPLIED
WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR CLASPS.
LOOSE TEETH FASTENED.
And filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Mcirmoratum.

MONS. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, at* Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they havOpened an Establishment
permanently at No. 70, SEEL-S*REET, eight doors from
Berry-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-
gress 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 destructive 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 Terio 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 arid durability to their original
state. Attendance from Nine till Seven, and on Sundays
from Nine till Two.

THE Subscribers to this Establishment and the Public are
most respectfully informed, that the arrangements for
the Season are in active preparation, on a scale that will sur-
pass all former occasions. MOUNT VESUVIUS has been
considerably enlarged, and, under the able superintendence
the omit
of that skilful Artist, Mr. DANSON, the original i entor of
this magnificent Work of Art, will be one of hi ost splen-
did productions. The present extent of the omit and its
vast improvements will enable the scientj. Pyrotechnist,
D'ERNEST, full scope to produce the m wonderful and
improved effect. The Proprietor feels pleasure in:announcing,
that the Lake has been enlarged and deepened, and the de-
sired requisition, of a good supply of water, has been com-
pletely effected. A faithful representation of a Naval En-
gagement will be exhibited on its surface, arranged expressly
by Messrs. Danson and D'Ernest, introducing the manoeu-
vres and disasters of a Sea Fight, with the destruction of the
defeated vessels. The arrangements for the accommodation
of visitors has been carefully attended to, the ground eleva-
ted, and every obstruction of view completely obviated.
The Subscription of 1838 expired on the first of May, and
the Proprietor earnestly solicits Public patronage in keeping
up this Establishment, which will be his pride to render one
()tithe most complete in the Kingdom. He likewise embraces
the present opportunity of returning thanks for the Dona-

DR. W. EVANS' AMERICAN HERB PILLS.
THE very rapid sale of this invaluable Medicine, since
its recent introduction here, more than realises the most
sanguine anticipations of its Proprietor. No better proof of
the great virtues of the American Herb Pills could be given,
than this ready appreciation on the part of the afflicted.—
Never since Medicine became a science was there a happier
discovery than that of the composition of this invaluable
Remedy.

DR. W. EVANS having proved, by the most thoroughly
extended individual and collective experience, tlot these Pills
are firmly based on the immutable laws of Nature, deems it
an imperative duty to bring them before the Public.
The great principles on which this IVVOicine is established,
are to supersede the indiscriminate usiof the Lancet, and of
those violent and dangerous minerals which have caused such
great mortality, and to prevent the frequent recourse to the
many deleterious purgatives compounded and put forth by
ignorant pretenders.
THE AMERICAN HERB PILLS, having stood the test of
the most thoroughly extended experience, are confidently re-
commended as decidedly superior to any combination of
Medicine ever offered to the public.

These Fills are a mild Aperient, perfectly safe, certain, and
pleasant in their operation, and being wholly composed of
HERBS that harmonise admirably with the human constitu-
tion, they are perfectly salutary under any circumstances.
In all cases in which functional derangements of the Liver,
the Stomach and Bowels are involved, and also in all Impu-
rities of the Blood, this Medicine possesses curative powers
of surpassing efficacy ; Costiveness, Dyspepsia and Bilious
Complaints, so frequently aggravated by other Medicines,
are easily cured by a judicious administration of this. A
pioper perseverance in the use of these invaluable Pills will
effectually relieve the distressed victims of Gout and Rheu-
matism, break up the tendency to a recurrence of the malady
and establish the health of the patient. These Pills are also
highly efficacious in all cases of Lowness of Spirits, Nervous
Irritability and Weakness, Loss of Appetite, Flatulency,
Heartburn, General Debility, Hysteria, Head-ache, Asthma,
and Spasmodic Affections.
One of the most dangerous epochs to Females is at the
change of life ; they then require a remedy that will invigo-
rate and equalise the circulation, so that they may withstand
the shock. That Medicine is Dr. Evans' American Herb
Pills. Those who have the care and education of Females
should never be without them. The HERBS of which they
are composed exert a specific action upon the Heart and
arterial system, quickening and equalising the circulation
through all the vessels, whether of the skin, the parts situated
internally, or the extremities: and as the secretions of the
body are drawn from the blood, there is a consequent in-
crease of every secretion and a quickened action of the ab-
sorbent and exhalent or discharging vessels. Any morbid
action that may have taken place is corrected, and all obstruc-
tions removed, the blood is purified, and the body resumes a
healthful state. Perseverance in the use of these Pills will
undoubtedly effect a cure in all cases that have been found
discouragingly obstinate.

The greai number of persons afflicted with Dyspepsia,
Liver or Bilious Complaints, are to be found among care-
worn speculators, stock-brokers, and ardent students; or
among those whose nervous system has, by injudicious edu-
cation, been too greatly developed and rendered morbidly
excitable. There can be no doubt that sedentary habits con-
cur with mental excitement in producing these complaints.
Lowness of spirits is a certain state of mind, accompanied
by indigestion, wherein the greatest evils are apprehended
upon the slightest grounds, and the worst consequences
imagined. Ancient medical writers supposed this disease to
be confined to those particular regions of the abdomen, tech-
nically called hypochondria, which are situated on the right
or left side of that cavity, whence comes the name hypochon-
driasis.

The common corporeal symptoms are, flatulency in the
stomach or bowels, acrid eructations, costiveness, spasmodic
pains, giddiness, dimness of sight, palpitations, and often
an utter inability of fixing the attention upon any subject of
importance, or engaging in any thing that demands vigour
or courage. Also languidness—the mind becames irritable,
thoughtful, desponding, melancholy, and dejected, accom-
panied with a total derangement of the nervous system. The
mental feelings and peculiar train of ideas that haunt the
imagination and overwhelm the judgment, exhibit an infinite
diversity. The wisest and best of men are a.s open to this
affliction as the weakest.

An habitual moderate use of the American Herb Pills, in
conjunction with moderate exercise and relaxation, will ef-
fectually accomplish a cure. The virtues of these Pills are
peculiarly such that they may be taken without occasioning
sickness, nausea, or any of those disagreeable sensations at-
tending the operation of other medicines.

COLnEST OF ALL CLIMATES.—The earth has no spot
upon its surface, either habitual or otherwise, which is so
cold as Yakutsk, a paltry, yet principal town of Eastern
Siberia, where a ftw wo')den houses are intermixed with nu-
merous huts, plastered over with cow-dung, and windowed
with ice. In this dreary and remote region the earth is
always frozen, the summer's thaw never reached three feet
from the surface, the subterranean ice having a computed
depth of 200 yards. In January the thermometer has been
known to sink 18 deg. below the bitterest cold experienced
by Ross during his last expedition, and yet the inhabitants,
favoured by a warm though short summer, reap both wheat
and barley, and cultivate successfully potatoes, and various
other hardy vegetables.

PPINTED PLACARDS, &c.—The bill now before Parlia-
ment for putting an end to the vexatious proceedings against
public companies for penalties incurred by issuing printed
circulars and prospectuses without having the printer's name
inserted thereon, repeals the 27th section of the 39th Geo.
111., c. 79, which imposes a penalty of £2O for printing any
paper or book whatsoever, intended to be published or
dispersed, whether for sale or to he given away, without
having the printer's name and place of abode appended thereto
in a prescribed manner, and then in substance re-enacts the
clause, only reducing the penalty to £5, and extending the
exception to " papers or books printed by order of or for
the use of any society incorporated or enrolled according to
law. The bill then gives to the courts of law or magistrates,
power to mitigate the penalty to £3, and the plaintiff is not
to be entitled to costs beyond the penalty recovered. Papers
and books having the name and abode of the printer affixed
to them before the passing of this bill are to be exempted
from all suits, &c., on other grounds. This bill, therefore,
does net dispense with the necessity of having the printer's
name and abode on papers or books printed for publication,
except in the instances enumerated in the original statute, or
where there they are " printed by order or for the use of
any society incorporated or enrolled according to law." So
far the law remains precisely as it was, and the only differ-
ence between the former act and the present bill relates to
the rec.uction of the penalty and enabling the courts and ma-
gistrates to mitigate it as to them " shall seem fit."
