Well-street, o:ipplpgate,

SIR, I have been several weeks confined to my bt4 bi Gout
and Rheumatism, not a part from my head to my feet free from
pain, and as helpless as an infant : not en a finger could I
move. In this unpleasant situation lo*as informed by my me-
dical attendant he had applied allyre usual remedies, and that
I might remain months in my j lorable situation.
Fortunately your remed made known to me, or I might
have been to this day con ed to my bed. After a close appli-
cation of four days, m oublesome companion began to dis-
appear ;in a week I s capable of walking about my room,
and by another w 's perseverance in the use of your Medi-
cine was enabled-fb leave Loodon. Fearful of another attack,
you will please to send six bottles.—l am, Sir your obedient
servant, D. W. STONE.
4. Paternoster-row.

" SIR,—Having been informed of the surpnsing cure of Mr.
Barnes, of St. Paul's Churchyard, who was so severely afflicted
by Rheumatism, the intense pain causing delirium, that he was
compelled to be confined by a strait waistcoat to prevent his
committing any violence, and whose case was considered en-
tirely hopeless, I was induced to ascertain the particulars, and
being satisfied of the truth of my information, encouraged me
to make a trial of your most invaluable Medicine, entertaining
little hopes of success, having been many years so severe a suf-
ferer, and tried many said to be very valuable remedies. lam
very happy in being able to add my testimony of the benefit
I derived: after a few days' application the use of my limbs are
perfectly restored, and I am now able to attend inc business,
nd, making an allowance for my age. never was better in my
life. To those, however severely afflicted and hopeless their
case may have been pronounced, I beg of them to make a trial,
feeling quite satisfied they will be restored to the use of their
limbs, from the severe cases that have yielded to this Medicine.
Health is a great blessing to those who can enjoy it, but to
hose who are deprived, none feels it so severely as the trades-
man or mechanic, as it generally causes loss of business, and
brings ruin on families. I shall at all times feel it my duty to
make it known to those afflicted, to evince how grateful I as
for my restoration, and am, Sir, yours truly,
GEORGE POLLARD.

14, Belmont-place, Wandsworth-road, Oct. 26, 1844.
SIR,—I feel in duty bound to acknowledge, that after suffer-
ing acute pains from Sciatica, or severe Rheumatic affection is
the hip-joint, and being deprived of rest, I was pqrsuaded to
try your embrocation, and have the pleasure to sa 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.

Such are the properties of this invaluable Specific that per
sons labouring under the most distressing Rheumatism, Rheu-
matic 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
of this external Medicine in the most hopeless and deplorable
cases, when the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining
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.
This excellent Medicine, so universally esteemed, is unat-
tended with the least danger or inconvenience, and hundreds
have experienced its happy and salutary effects since it was
first introduced. _

MISSIONS IN TAHITI.
A T a MEETING of CHRISTIAN MINISTERS
and FRIENDS, of various Evangelical Denominations,
held in the Charitable Institution-house, Slater-street, on
Tuesday Morning, December 1, 1846,
The Rev. Dr. RAFFLES in the chair,
The CHAIRMAN read the 2nd Psalm.
The Rev. Dr. BYRTH engaged in prayer<
The CHAIRMAN read a commtwicition from the Directors
of the London Missionary Society, with respect to the
and prospects of Tahiti,
The Rev. JOHN KELLY !Zed ;
'The Rev. DONALD Fe.soussoN seconded ;
The Rev. EDWARDMA LKER supported
I. " That, deeply sympathising with the sufferings of the
exiled Queen of Tahiti and her subjects, and having long re-
garded the operations of the London Missionary Society in the
South Seas as a means of extending the religion of Christ, as
well as proving that the natives of the South Seas are capable
of being raised to a state of civilization • this Meeting expresses
its firm conviction, that the seizure of" the Georgian, and the
attempt upon the Society Islands, recently made by the French,
is a gross violation of international right, and, in effect, an
attempt to crush the rising Christianity and civilization of the
South Seas, equally unworthy of the Christian name, and de-
grading to the scientific reputation of the people and Govern-
ment of France."—Carried.
The Rev. J. CORDEAUX moved;
The Rev. Dr. CRICHTON seconded;
The Rev. J. J. DAVIES and the Rev. JAMES LISTER sup-
port,ed;
11. That, as friendly relations have long existed between
the inhabitants of the Georgian Islands and the Government
of this country, and since promises of protection have been
given by the latter to the former, this Meeting hold it to be
the duty of her Majesty's Government, by negotiation with the
Government of France,. to secure to the inhabitants of the
Society Islands (whose independence, there is reason to be-
lieve, has already been admitted by the French) the peaceful
possession of their own country, and to the oppressed inhabi-
tants of the Georgian Group, liberty to retire to that country,
since the French Protectorate has made it impossible for any
other course to be taken."—Carried.
The Rev. Dr. BYRTH moved ;
JOHN CROPPER_, Jun., Esq., seconded;
MeSSTS. JOHN HOWARD and DAVID ROWLAND supported;
111. " That the. following Memorial to the Right Hon. Lord
Palmerston and her Majesty's Government, embodying the
principles of these Resolutions, be adopted by this Meeting :
TO THE RIGHT HONORABLE LORD VISCOUNT PALMERSTON,
HER MAJESTY'S PRINCIPAL SECRETARY OF STATE FOR
FOREIGN AFFAIRS, &c., &c., &C.
The Memorial of the undersigned, being Ministers and Lay-
men of various denominations in Liverpool,
"SHEWETH,—That your Memorialists beg
.respectfully to
call the attention of your Lordship, and her Majesty's Govern-
ment, to the condition of the Georgian and Society Islands,
which have long been the scene of the successful labours of
Christian Missionaries from this country..
" That, in the opinion of your Memorialists, the aggression
of the French power on the Georgian Islands, whereby the
Queen of Tahiti has been driven into exile, and exposed to
severe privation and suffering, while her subjects have been
compelled to take refuge in their mountain fastnesses, as well
as the subsequent aggression on the Society Islands, can be
regarded in no other light than as outrages deserving severe
and universal condemnation by the friends of justice, huma-
nity, and religion
ltef -owledge the

"That your Memorialists gra .ully
tures adopted by her Majesty's late Administration to establish
the just claims of the Society Islands to complete indepen-
dence ; and they have learned, with much satisfaction, that
the French Government has admitted the conclusiveness of
the evidence adduced for that purpose, and has, in conse-
ht

-- • ----
quence, renounced all pretensions to any aul

157‘uThat, assuming the truth of this intelligence, your Memo-
rialists most humbly entreat her Majesty's Government to
adopt such pacific measures as may secure to the inhabitants
of the Society Islands the quiet and permanent possession of
their country, which has been already threatened, and must
for the future be continually endangered by its proximity to
the French power.
" That, in regard to Tahiti, since the unhappy recognition
of the French Protectorate by the British Government—a step
ar

which must ever be deeply deplored—your Memorialists we
not insensible to the peculiar difficulties which must attend
any interference on behalf of the Tahitian people by her Ma-
jesty's Government. They nevertheless feel constrained, by
motives of humanity and religion, most respectfully to submit
to your Lordship's consideration, whether it may not be prac-
ticable, by friendly mediation, to induce the Government of
France to allow those natives who may be disposed peaceably
to withdraw from the Island, as the only means of preventing
their complete extermination. Your Memorialists submit,
that such a mediation would be not only an act of humanity
to the oppressed, but also in strict conformity with the acknow-
ledged ancient and friendly connexion which has subsisted
betn Great Britain and these Islands, and in fulfilment of
the promises made to the people on different occasions by the
British Government."—Carried.
The Rev. G. OsnoßN moved;
JOHN SUTHERLAND, Esq., M.D., seconded;
IV. " That the Memorial be forwarded to the Right Hon,
Lord Palmerston, as soon as the aiannturos of ihn-hrothra.
present, and others who may wish td sign that document, shall
have been obtained; and that the foregoing Resolutions and
the Memorial be advertised in such public prints as may seem
•best to the Committee by whom this Meeting has been con-
vened."—Carried.
The Rev. W. MAYNARD engaged in prayer, and the CHAIR-
MAN pronounced the benediction.

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
LIVERPOOL BUILDING LAND COMPANY,

PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED,

CAPITAL 815,000, in 300 Shares of 850 each.—Entrance
or Subscription Money, ss. per Share.

THE objects of this Society are twofold—namely,
the Purchase of a quantity of Land eligible for Building
purposes, and the re-sale of the same, in Lots, to Builders or
others ; the Society making the Purchasers advances of cash
as their buildings proceed such advances, and interest
thereon, to be repaid to the Soeiety w* lie—Purchase Money
of the Land.

The Shares are payable by thly instalments of until
£5O is realised upon eac The duration of the Society will
only be limited by the of the majority of the Shareholders,
but the Shares will be ansferable at the option of the holder.
The operations of The Society are conducted by a Managing
Committee of gentlemen practically acquainted with this de-
partment of business, and with the value of land.
Interest will be paid upon the Deposits, and the Profits will
divided amongst the Shareholders.

The objects'of this Society-are sound and tangible, and its
mode of operation simple and clear, and, consequently, it will
form a most advantageous medium for investment : for, while
the guarantee of a large and available capital will enable it to
purchase
on the most reasonable terms, the facility and
promptitude with which it can advance to Builders, will enable
it to dispose of its Land in the shortest possible time. This
opinion is further confirmed by the well-known fact, that many
private individuals have realised large fortunes in this way;
and in any case where they have failed, the failure may be
traced to the absence, in such individual, of that which this
Society is formed to create, namely—A CAPITAL ADEQUATE
TO THE EXTENT OF ITS OPERATIONS.

Applications for Shares, or for information, to be made (in
the form annexed) to Mr. WILLIAM OWEN, Solicitor, Clayton-
