CANCER, SCIRRHUS, TUMOUR of every variety,
FISTULA, &c., &c., successfully treated without the
Knife, by J. L. WARD, Professor of Medical Surgery, No.
18, Trafalgar-street, Leeds ; and No. 1, Liverpool-street,
Oldfield-road, Salford, Manchester.

The following Mr. Ward has just receive , which has been
designed for an advertisement :—" I 1E this as a pleasure
to inform the public that I have been a eye-witness to some
of the great cures performed in th' quarter by Mr. J, L.
Ward, and have tiled the said Mr. 'yard with a very large
Tumour on my right thigh, much larger than my fist, and
being more than twenty years standing, which substance he
has removed without cutting or even the shedding of one
drop of blood,—the truth of which may be substantiated by
applying to me at my house, No. 15, Mill Brook, near Staly-
bridge, WILLIAM VARLEY.—JuIy 18th, 1840."
A remarkable Cure of a Cancerous Tumour of the Breast
has been effected by Mr. Ward, twelve months ago, upon a
respectable female, seventy years of age, who is now in the
enjoyment of good health and spirits, and for the good of the
afflicted, wishes the same to be made public. Further in-
formation may be had at No. 22, Kensington, near Liier-
pool, where the Tumour may also be seen.—Kensington,

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, AUGUST 19

advance on both mutton and lamb. Best beef at 6d to bid per lb. ;
middling, sid to 6d; wether mutton, fild to 7d; ewes, 6d to 6fd ;

claimed.

--7 During the first part of the week the weather continued as
favourable as in the two preceding weeks; and, although since
Friday last it has been of a similar temperature and we have had
frequent showers, further than retarding Harvest, they have not
as yet been injurious to the crops of Grain, and they have been
beneficial to the Pastures, Turnips, and Potatoes, which stood in
much need of moisture.
The stocks of the millers and dealers having been much reduced,
the demand during the past week has been to a fair extent for
almost every article in the Corn trade, and prices of last Tuesday
have been pretty generally obtained.
The duty on Wheat from foreign ports his been reduced since
Friday last to 10s 8d per quarter, and on Flour to ds 5d per barrel,
and on Beans to the lowest, is per quarter; on Friday next, it is
almost certain that the duty on Wheat will be further reduced to
6s 8d per quarter, and on Flour to 45 per brirrel ; further we will
not anticipate, though some are very sanguine in their expectations
of seeing it at the lowest in September. Some very considerable
quantities of Wheat and Flour, in bond, are reported to have
changed hands since our last, at fully the prices then quoted; the
duty on Oats will also, very probably, be reduced is 8d per quarter
next Friday.
During the whole of yesterday and the preceding night we have
had a deluge of rain, which fell very heavily, accompanied by strong
gusts of wind : the result of which, to the crops of Grain, must have
been very injurious, though this is not yet ascertained ; by accounts
from London it appears they have had equally severe weather
there yesterday, which enabled them to obtain an advance on
Wheat of 2s to 3s per quarter ; this day it has continued rainy and
broken, and in consequence, at this day's market, an advance of
3d to 6d per 70 lb. on Wheat. 2s to 3s per barrel on Flour, free and
in bond, ;s per 45 lbs. on Oats, Is per 240 lbs. on Oatmeal, and is
per quarter on every other article in the Corn trade was steadily
demanded and obtained to a moderate extent, and we must now, at
this our most critical time, fluctuate in the most capricious manner
with the weather for the next three or four weeks, as Harvest is
but just commencing throughout this and the northern districts.

POPISH ARROGANCE

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
Sllt,—You are no doubt aware that a clause was inserted
in the Romish emancipation act, specially to forbid Rornish
priests, under a penalty of £lOO, to appe7r outside the cha-
pel doors in their robes; yet, notwithstanding this, after all
their professions of obedience, they openly violate this law.
, One day this week, at the funeral of a priest in St. Nicholas's
chapel, there were no less than twelve or fourteen priests,
habited in their robes, came in procession into the streets
adjoining the chapel, with a large wooden cross, immense
candles, boys, and all their other senseless paraphernalia.
Now, Sir, are our laws to be a dead letter, or are they to be
enforced against Protestants and not against Papists, mi.
of a foreign power ? If the clause is not intended to be er,
forced, why not boldly expunge it at once, and let us know,
what we are to expect? but as lDng as it, stands in the statut(
book, for God's sake let it be enforced.
Is there no one of influence who will conic forward and de-
mand the- enforcement of the law against these apostate
priests, or are they openly to insult our religion, our reason,
and our common sense, by these ridiculous and idolatrous
proceedings? are they to be allowed to bring our towns into
the same state as the large towns abroad, that are lost in
popery, and consequently in ignorance ; and is there no one
who will endeavour to arrest our downward course ? I can-
not believe that England will so soon forget what it cost her
to throw off popery's iron yoke at the Reformation.
May these lines meet the eye of some one who will come
forward in our cause, is the earnest desire of
Your most obedient servant.

MANCHESTER.—The apprehensions for the fate of the
harvest, excited by the extremely unfavourable weather that
has prevailed during the last few days, and probably also the
unsettled appearance of foreign affairs, have checked that
tendency to improvement which was manifested last week ;
and the demand yesterday, both for goods and yarn, though
moderate and steady, was on a smaller scale than on the pre-
vious Tuesday. .There is no declinein prices; indeed, some
descriptions of printing cloth, which are comparatively
scarce, have been held for rather higher rates. •
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, AUG. 17.--
Considering it has been the wakes to-day, there has been a
tolerable quantity of business done, but at low prices. There
has also been a good attendance of buyers. Ahother failure
among the small manufacturers has become known to-day,
which is the fourth or fifth that has taken place within the
month. English wool is rather stiffer, but foreign wool may
be quoted a shade lower.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, AUG. 18. —As might have
been expected, the only • terrific weather on the eve of this
market had a somewhat depressing effect, but, we are glad to
state, not to any great extent. O the whole, a fair busi-
ness was done in most descriptions of woollens and light
fancy goods ; but former prices were difficult to maintain.
In wools there was not much done, either in English or
foreign, the struggle for even a small profit being severe.
Great anxiety is felt for the result of the harvest. Parties
hold back for the present; and, should the harvest tirove
failure, low as prices are, they must still recede. 1 here is
little or no change to note in respect to business done in the
warehouses during the week.—Manchester Guardian.

OXON'S EFFERVESCENT MAGNESIAN APE-
RIENT possesses' all the efficacy of the most approved.
Saline Purgatives, without the disagreeable taste which ren-
ders medicines of that class so obnoxious to
,tie( palate and
stomach. Its operation is mild, effectual,i 'attended by
pain or inconvenience, and does not inclu . any liability to
take cold, or establish a necessity for I " habitual use of
Aperient Medicines. It is of eminent vice in Pains in the
Head, Sick Headache, Casual or abitual Costiveness,
Bilious Affections, Nausea, Sickness, Heartburn, Gout, Piles,
Fistula, and for derangement of the Stomach and Head, re-
suiting from excess either in eating or drinking. The effer-
vescence which takes place during its administration is
peculiarly grateful to the stomach, and in many cases of
extreme irritability of that organ, it has been retained after
all other medicines have been:rejected, and has succeeded in
allaying the excessive vomiting after other means have failed.
As an adjunct to the Harrogate, Cheltenham, and other wa-
ters. its valuable properties are well known. Many testimo-
nials of its efficacy, with other particulars, are inserted in the
bill wrapped round each bottle.—Prepared only by Benjamin

SAPARILLA, prepared by Benj. Moxon and Sons in strict

parilla is almost a specific in Scurvy, Scrofula, Scorbiltic
Eruptions, Roughness of the Face, Chronic Rheumatism,
Liver Affections, Syphilis, and those affections resulting from
the excessive use of Mercury ; but its preparation requires a
long time, and apparatus which few can obtain. All its
virtues, without any of its inconveniences, are contained in
the concentrated preparation ; a teaspoonful being equal to

POPISH ARROGANCE

TO THE .EDITOR

'HE LIVERPOOL STAIVDdRD

SIR, —You are no doubt aware that a clause' was inserted
in the R.omish emancipation act, specially to forbid Romish
priests, under a penalty of £lOO, to appe7r outside the cha-
pel doors in their robes ; vet, notwithstanding this, after all
their professions of obedience, they openly violate this law.
One clay this week, at the funeral of spriest in St. Nicholas's
chapel, there were no less than twelve or fourteen priests,
habited in their robes, came in procession into the-streets
adjoining the chapel, with a large wooden cross, itnitien
candles, boys, and all their
Now, Sir,- are our laws to be a
enforced against Protestants and not against Papists, subjects
of a foreign power? If the clause is not intended to be en-
forced, why not boldly expunge it at once, and let us know
what we are to expect ? but as long as it stands in the statute
book, for God's sake let it be enforced

s parapherbalia
r are they to bt

ead letter

Is there no one of influence who will come forward and de-
mand the enforcement of the law against these apostate
priests, or are they openly to insult our religion, our reason,
and our common sense, by these ridiculous and idolatrous
proceedings ? are they to be allowed to bring our towns into
the same state as the large towns abroad, that are lost In
popery, and consequently in ignorance; and is there no one
who will endeavour to arrest our downward course ? I can-
not believe that England will so soon forget what it cost her
to throw off popery's iron yoke at the Reformation.
May these lines meet the eye of some one who will come
forward in our cause, is the earnest desire of
• Your most obedient servant,
A CONSTANT READER. AND A REFORMER.

UTTERING COUNTERFEIT COIN

Sarah Boyle, alias Catherine Boyle, aged 46, was charged
with having unlawfully uttered a counterfeit shilling in this
town on the 22nd July last.
The counsel for the prosecution were the same as in the
last case.

It appeared that on the 22nd July last, the prisoner went
to a public-house or spirit shop, kept by a person named
Darlington, in Great Charlotte-street. She asked for a glass
of whiskey, in payment of which she tendered a good half-
crown, and received 2s. 3d. change. She returned what she
wished it to be supposed was one of the shillings, and asked
to have change for it. There was some doubt about this
shillipg, and a Mr. Birch, who stood by, was appealed to,
who pronounced it to be a bad one. The prisoner stood near
the dripper, which was behind the counter, and in the drip-
per was found a piece of rag which contained three counter-
feit shillings, which had been cast from the same mould as
the bad shilling which the prisoner had tendered for change.
The prisoner was hereupon given into the custody of an
officer.

The jury found the prisoner guilty of uttering one shilling,
knowing it to be base. She was sentenced to six months'
imprisonment and hard labour, in the House of Correction
at Kirk dale. _ _

—Moses Ashworth, convicted of manslaughter on Monday,
was sentenced to three months' imprisonment and hard
labour, at Kirkdale.
The court adjourned at six o'clock.
