known to the annals of medical discoveries,)as a specific reme-
dy to exterminate from the system, that intruder on the plea-
sures frequently imbibed in moments of inebriation, or thought-
lessness : never did a discovery excite a greater sensation, it
was sought after with avidity, and. used with undeviating
success in the most minute and intricate cases of the delicate
complaint, for the cure or which, they have been so long cele-
brated. The fame of these Pills throughout Germany, caused
their speed introduction into almost every country, and ad-
dresses were presented to the talente)i Professor Swedour who
filled the chair at Leyden University, congratulatory of the cir-
cumstance. The certainty with which they were continually
administered, can be attested by many thousands, in fact during
the long continental war they were the inseparable companion
and safeguard of the soldier, in all cases where the slightest
suspicion of infection was entertained. What Medicine can be
more appropriate than that which has given such general satis-
faction. The Hygean Pills root out every particle of the insid-
nous poison, purifying in their progress the whole mass of fluids,
they not only remove the disease, but renovate by their action
the different functions of the body—expelling the grosser hu-
mours and in a manner so mild and iinperceptible as to con-
vince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled
powers, they neither contain mercury or
any other mineral,
and may be taken without the slightest suspicion of discovery—

The deplorable state in which many persons have been when

MEMORIAL PRESENTEff TO THE TOWN COUN-
-CIL OF LIVERPOOL, ON THE 3d FEBRUARY 1836.
A_ tiE undersigned IN SIIRANC E COM PAN lES, interested
in, the safety of the Mercantile part of the town of Liverpool,
beg to call the attention of its civil authorities to the continued
procrastination ofthose measures of precaution for extinguishing
["ties which have been so long expected from the patriotism and
foresight of its corporation.
The Fire Insurance Companies have bs‘n led to expect, many
years past, but more particularly since February, 1833, that
measures would be taken for providing an adequate supply of
Water, in case of Fire, to the lower districts of the town—Suf-
ficient measures for a supply of Water have not yet been taken.
They -have likewise been pr used that an act of Parliament
should be applied for to ame the present act authorising the
establishment of a Fire Poli and Engines, with a view to give
a power of recovery of the expense of extinguishing a Fire
against the proprietors of tte property on fire, and that immedi-
ately endangered; so that the bnrthen of such expense should
fall on the parties really benefited.—lnstead of this the reim-
bursement is now made to depend exclusively on the voluntary
liberality of the Insurance, Offices.
The Fire Insurance Companies conceive that they cannot re-
cal the attention of the civil authorities of Liverpool to this sub-
ject at a better time than the present, when the city of New
York has just had its mercantile district reduced to ashes, and
experienced the full effect of the fury of a conflagration which
has not only devastated a space quite as large and well-built as
the warehouse district of Liverpool, but destroyed the credit and
and resources of its principal Liverpool,
Companies.
The undersigned Companies, therefore, trust that this impor-
tant subject will now be taken into serious consideration by the
civil authorities of Liverpool, as the rates of premium now
charged are inadequate to meet an extensive conflagration iu
the warehouse district.

CLERK OF TUE ARRAIGNS ON THE WESTERN CIRCUIT.—
The office of Clerk of the Arraigns on the Western Circuit has
become :vacant in consequence of the death of Mr. Chambre,
by whom it was filled a great number of years. Mr. Baron
Gurney, who- was the senior judge on the last circuit, has
claimed the right of appointment, as the vacancy occurred
before the next circuit was appointed, and has conferred the
office on his son, Mr. Sidney Gurney, who has lately commenced
practice at the Chancery Bar. Mr. Justice Littledale has,
however, disputed theoight of Mr. Baron Gurney to the ap-
pointment, on the ground that he had been appointed the senior
judge for the next circuit before the vacancy occurred, and that
therefore Mr. Baron Gurney s connection with the last circuit
had entirely ceased. As neither of the learned judges was in-
clined to give way, both being equally anxious to have the dis-
posal of the office, the matter was submitted to the other judges
for their decision, and yesterday their lordships gave their
opinion in favour of Mr. Baron Gurney. This occasioned a
delay in appointing the days for holding the assizes in the circuit.
