(ROOKS, BURCH, and O'KEEFE, Agents to I
the BELFAST LINEN COMPANY, have just received a 1
large Cargo of IRISH LINENS, and SHEhTINGS, from the
North of Ireland, which are considerably cheaper than any Linens
which have b, en imported for several years. Being bleached on
the grass, whhout muriatic acids, they can with confidence war-
rant their durability ; and if a fault appears, the money returned.
As several Persans have, by assuming I similar title, endeavoured
i to pass under the credit of our name, to prevent deception, it is
1 necessary to observe' we sell no article but Irish Linens, in single
i pieces, at the wholesale factor's price. No abatenient ever made,

AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN ARITHMETIC.
THE SCHOOLMA STE RS throughout GREAT
BRITAIN are respectfully informed that in the New Edi-
tion, dated January 30, 1610, of the KEY to JOYCE's ARITH-
METIC, is given a nyw and very useful discovery, by means of
' which all Sums in the First Rules of Arithmetic, simple or com-
pound, may be eramined at a glance of the eye.
This discovery, which is practically illustrated in the Key to
Mr. Joyce's Arithmetic, has been purchased of the Inventor, at a
; considerable expense, and will be found to be deserving of adop-
-1 tion by all Schoolmasters.
Mr. Joyce's Practical Arithmetic, commonly called the .Arith-
1 metic of Real Life and Bwiness, is well known to contain the mo-
t dern principles and application of that Art, and the fourth Edition,
just published, may be pronounced free from ty2pgrapkical and
I other error. The New Edition of the Key exited"), corresponds
with the New Edition of the Arithmetic.
Both Works may be had of all Booksellers, with the full allow-
ance to Schools; the retail price of the Agithmetic being 3s. 61.
and of the Key 2s. 6d. .
