DESSERT FRUITS.
MIDDLEWOOD respectfully informs his Customers,
• Friends, and the Public, that he is now prepared to serve
Desserts to any extent, with a variety of Fruits, not to be
equalled in England. His Pines are of superior quality.
Melons, Peaches, Grapes, with every choice English Fruit,
in Season. A few Forbidden Fruit, also French Pears of all
the most approved sorts. His fine Imperial Bloe Raisins,
for Desserts, 3s. the Bo,:. The finest Muscatel Layers, in
Boxes and Halt' Boxes. New Jordan Almonds and Portugal
Plums, in Boxes, 2s. 6d. each. His Filberts, Cob Nuts, and
'Walnuts, prepared for keeping, are the
.best sample that
could be procured in London.
J. M. begs respectfully to inform his Friends and the Pub-
lic, that his Establishment, patronised for -10 years by Roy-
alty and the Nobility and Gentry of the surrounding Coun-
ties, is an advantage which few Fruiterers can boast of. His
extensive connections with Growers of Fruit renders him able
to meet every competitor. His Pines, which were placed before
his late Majesty, were pronounced the tinest ever beheld. Also
his Forbidden Fruit, which could not be equalled in the
kingdom, has met with the same flattering praise by her Ma-
jesty Queen Victoria this summer.
J. M. begs to offer to Country Dealers, &c., Grapes in
Barrels and Boxes, of superior quality ; Portugal Onions in
Boxes; also 20 Barrels of fine Portugal Quinces, for preserv-
ing Marmalade, &c. ; fine Jamaica and East India Preserved
Ginger; Limes and Tamarinds; Ditto Jamaica; fine Shad-
dock Marmalade, Guava Ditto, and Jelly.
Just landed, a few Quarter and whole Cartoons of New
French Plums, Pomegranates, and Spanish Melons.
Middlewood's celebrated Botanic Oil for the Hair, 25.,
3s. 6d., and ss. per Jar.
To prevent an idea that where all the Choice Fruits are
sold, Inferior Fruits are not to be had at .moderate prices,
comparison is the best test, and J. M. will sell good Foreign
Grapes, legal weight, at 6d. per lb. Olives, Capers, and a
great variety of Pickles and Sauces at London prices.

MILK PUNCH ROYAL 1
MANUFACTURER
MOF MILK.
PUNCH TO HER
AJESTY
PHIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has, for- nearly a
century, been duly appreciated at
CHICHESTER AND THE MET,,IIOPOLIS.
It was at the former place where the origitial projector of this
delectable beverage had his abode ; ntooubt the corporation
of that ancient borough evinced thtittood taste, and marked
their approbation of this
GREAT DISCOVERY,

by presenting to him the freedom of the town ; but with that
the present generation have nothing to do ; suffice it to say,
that this ELIXIR
is now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the
Lon vivants of the northern parts of this great Kingdom for
their judgment.
It would be quite in vain to enter into any detail of its
excellencies, yet, thus far may be vouched, that it is composed
of the best materials, without any adulteration, and, in
flavour, possesses the combined sweetness of the Grape, the
fragrance of the Lime, with the exhiliration of Champagne;
and while
THE LORDS OF THE CREATION
will find it an excellent addenda to the Dinner Table,
THE GENTLER SEX
may not disdaßOinYA Lto sipTY, the more so as
has acknowledged its transcendent merit.
It has been intimated that it will prevent
SEA SICKNESS,
but of that we will not vouch, never having crossed the
" briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro-
prietors of
PACKET-SHIPS AND STEAMERS
take the hint ? And although it may not produce that " con-
summation devoutly to be wished," yet, sure we are, its
grateful properties are such as will be found to be an excellent
restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer
from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate,
and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence,
improves by age.
LE GRAND GOURMAND
will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and
Calepee, and the temperate man, while he masticates his
biscuit over a glass of it, will be constrained to eulogise this
I incomparable Liqueur.

" Come and try,
Don't like—don't buy,"
is an old saying and a good one ; and as in matters of taste
every man is the best judge, this invitation is given in the full
assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the
palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst
the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

AN APPEAL FOR A POOR CURATE NEARLY

BLIND

SOME friends of the Rev. J. W. Gowring, in considera-
tion of his very afflicted case having, without. his know-
ledge, begun a private subscription in his behalt' it has been
determined to bring it before the ChristiWmblic, in the
hope that something will be done towaells-the support of a
very able minister of the Church of Enijiind, whose eyesight
has completely failed him for most of the duties of his office.
For, although he is just able to see his way in walking, he
cannot discern the largest print, nor indeed any object what-
ever distinctly ; and it is the opinion of his medical advisers,
that the case may even end in total blindness.
As his mental and bodily powers remain unimpaired, and
as his knowledge of Scripture is considered very extraordi-
nary by every one who hears him, it is possible that, by and
by, he may meet with some occupation in the Church—as a
lectureship, where the reading of the Church Service would
not be required of him ; and for this kind of duty he would
be admirably adapted by his gift of extempore preaching.
He was compelled to resign his Curacy, where he was fa-
voured by many privileges, and surrounded by almost every
comfort for four years. He has sought the most eminent
advice in the kingdom, and still his sight is becoming gradu-
ally worse, so that he felt it right no longer to remain in a
situation where an assistant curate has been maintained for
some time, for the sole purpose of affording him every possi-
ble means of recovery. •
He is left without the least means of support, except £7
a-year, arising from sums invested in the Savings' Bank, and
except such as may be afforded him by friends. Relations
he has none to rely upon, and the little property which lie
was expecting through his wife will probably be lost to his
family by the conduct of an attorney. He closes a statement
of his case to the Bishop of Ripon in these words :
" I am in my thirty-first year, and have a wife and one
child three years old ; and unless the Lord in his good Pro-
vidence should see fit to provide something for our support,
I know not what is to become of us, as we have not a single
relation who is at all able to assist us, and the stipend arising
from my present curacy will cease in about a fortnight.
" The prospect before me is but a melancholy one as to
temporal concerns, and yet I feel persuaded that my present
affliction is sent by the Lord for some wise but mysterious
purpose. In the midst of all my trials my mind is not par-
ticularly disturbed, as I firmly depend upon the word of
Jehovah, Trust iu the Lord, and do good ; so that thou
shalt dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.' "
