SERJEANT'S LOTION, the only effectual Remedy
against Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, Sciatica, and Lum-
bago. Sold by the Proprietor, G. C. SERJEANT, No. 7, Le-
velPs-court, Paternoster-row, London; and by all Vendors-ef
Medicine. Price 2s. 9d. per Bottle.
This excellent Medicine, so universally esteemed, is unat-
tended with the least danger or inconvenience; hundreds have
experienced its happy and salutary effects since it was first
introduced; and such are the properties of this invaluable.
Specific that persons labouring under the most distressing
Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, and Lumbago, and rendered
thereby incapable of assisting themselves, have been relieved
in a few hours.

The astonishing success which has crowned the application
ethic external Medicine in the moat hopeless and deplorable
cases, avhen the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever braining
even the least relief, and this after the ablest advice and every
other means had completely failed, most justly entitles it to the
attention of the afflicted.

Amongst many which are being daily receiyed are thefollol-
- testimonials:—

OM 14, Belmont -place. Wandsworth-road, Oct. 26, 1844.
Sin,-1 feel in duty bound to acknowledge, that after suffer-
ing acute pains from Sciatica, or severe Rheumatic affection it
the hip-joint, and being deprived of rest, I was persuaded to
try your embrocation. and have the pleasure to say that after
three applications I was restored to my usual health ; and, al-
though two years have passed, I have no- return of the disorder.
—I am, Sir, gratefully yours, EDWARD NOYES.

;forleu's Hotel, Strang, 18th August, 1848.
Sra,—l Itave hitherto had a prejudice against naving recourse
to advertised medicines, but as I have for years been a severe
sufferer from Lumbago, as well as Sciatica, and having tried
several of the most eminent Physicians of London and Paris, I
was induced by a friend to make a trial of your liquid, called
" Seijeant's Lotion." I think it in gratitude due to you to say,
in less than an hour from the time applied the Lotion. I felt
the most pleasant and indescribable relief. The immediate
effect was to producea short but tranquil and most refreshing
slumber, from which I awoke to enjoy that Wawa was, from its
novelty, the greatest happiness—perfect quietude and freedom
rom pain. The,number of poor souls that auger as I have is
immense, and if the publication of this testimony can induce
one to accept of the salvation you offer, I shall feel that I have
not lived in vain.—With.many thanks, I am yours,

SPECIAL MEETING OF THE COUNCIL-DEBATE
ON THE WATER QUESTION.

A special meeting of the Town Council was held yester-
day, in the Council-chamber, to take into consideration
the following subjects :

I.—The proceedings, resolutions, and reports of the
Water Committee, since those before the Council on the
7th March last, viz., from the 9th day of March to the
7th day of May instant, both inclusive.

2.—The report of Messrs. Simpson and Newlands on
the question of water supply, and the statement of Mr.
Hawksley thereon, and to adopt such resolutions in rela-
tion to this subject as the Council may think fit.
Shortly after the usual hour of meeting, there being a
very fair attendance of members, his Worship the Mayor
took his seat, and, in opening the proceedings, said that
the first question he should put to the Council was, whe-
ther the proceedings of the Water Committee, which had
been read on a former occasion, should now be read, or
whether the Council would be satisfied with having such
portions only of the proceedings read as might be required
by any member of the Council, and thus save much time.

Mr. HOUNBY said he did not see anything in the pro-
ceedings which would require them to be read.
Mr. PARKER observed that there was a new member
(Mr. Freme) present.
Mr. Pnourra observed that the only points w
