PRIZE WHEAT.
TO INC ACSOCULTURISTS OF LINCOLNSHIRE, &IA
4 Newly-discovered Wheat, " Four-square-headed-Red
Britannia," by 'THOS. FULLAItp, Thoruev, near
Peterboro', fresh imported, fresh to the soil, fresh to the
atmosphere. One quarter of it will sow from 6to 7 acres.
The production of this seed this year has proved beyond a
doubt that it is well calculated for this country. Lord
Chesterfield's representative has the highest opinion of it,
and numbers of the largest farmers in the six adjoining
eouuties say they never witnessed any thing equal to it. One
gentleman, who has very poor land, has iuforrued me that he
to selling his crop of this \Vheat at £8 per quarter, and he
bas had II quarters to the acre. Mr. Abbot, of Louclham,
has s4ld nay Wheat at £8 per quarter; it was the best crop
in the neighbourhood. 50 bushels of this Wheat will make
More money than 100 bushels of common \Vhest. The best
seed is best Ter the community, best fur improvement, best
for the landlord, best fur the tenant, best fur the poor. It is
the greatest object to the Wheat grower to select the proper
Wheat for Seed : the common sort is ruinous. From 1
gnerter of my Wheat Mr. Shield grow 440 bushels; Mr.
Mr. Hodson, from 2 bushels 13 quarters, 6 bushels; Mr.
Carisbresk, near Lincoln, had three labnurets who had
Pieces of ground all alike; one sowed my Wheat and had as
tench as the other two; this shows by little what men may
I have received au order from Witadsor for this Wheat
to seed the Queen's farm. The Yorkshire farmers pre-
sented tste with a piece of plate for the benefit they received
from this new discovery The gold medal in London has
he►ls awarded me for the merit of the introduction of this
Wheat. A farmer can no mere fight his way now without
fallowing the new-improved specimens than a soldier can
fight without arms. The time I hope now is come for every
one to snake every improvemeut and break down all preju-
dice, and not act as if they were in bondage. I know I may
as well try to swallow all London, and drench it down with
the Thames, as to attempt to turn some people. I hope to
see the Irish better provided for. I can find thousands of
homes in Ireland in which for the last two months there has
ant been a loaf of bread. I myself witnessed this distressing

Now for Sale, the Wellington Waterloo White Wheat
'elected from the field of Waterton a few years since ; it has
always been set by hand, and thrashed upon a cloth in the

Wheat may be had of my agents.
I have alto sow on Sale, German Marrow-fat Tares tosssw
411 elevens instead of rye-grass, as 1 consider rye-grass a
largest
for twitch, and an enemy to Wheat. One of the
Largest farmers in Norfolk, who has always been a large
grower, declares be will never sow rye-grass again. I should

AMNON'S
EFFERVESCENT MAGNESIAN- APERIENT,
Decidedly the most generally useful Medidue ever offered
to the Public.
r HE unrivalled efEcacy of the Alagnesian in all Disorders
I_ of the Stomach and Bowels, has obtained fur it the uni-
form recommendation and approval of the Faculty.
This unique preparation unites all the active powers of
the must approved saline purgatives, with the palatable qua-
lities of a glass of soda water. In torpid state of the liver
and bowels, bilious affections, cholera murbus, pains in the
head or disordered state of the stomach, nausea, and violent
sickness, it will be found asafe, speedy, and effectual remedy.
It gives instantaneous relief in the heartburn, is of great
service in preventing piles, fistula, and gout, and in allevia-
ting the febrile symptoms attendant on the latter affection.
Derangement of the stomach, and head, &c. arising from too
free indulgence in the gratifications of the table, is speedily
removed by a tea-spoonful taken early in the morning.
Prepared only by Benjamin Moxiin, Chymist, Hull.

CONCENTRATED COMPOUND DECOCTION, •
(Prepared by 13. M oxon, Chynaist,
" One tahle-spoonful added to a pint of pure water readily
forms a pint of the compound decoction ; and, in justice to
the preparers, we must say, appears to be more impregnated
with the virtues of the ingredients, than the decoction made
in the usual way."—See Gazette of Health and Practical Me-
dicine for January, 1829.
In bottles at ds. 6d., 125., and 225., the latter equivalent. to
3•1 pints of the compound decoction of the London Pharma-
copoeia.

terfeit preparations, his Majesty's honourable Commissioners
of Stamps granted .Mason and Smith (then Co-partners) to
