THE EPITAPH of MARGERY SCOTT, in the Parish
Churchyard of Dunkeld, in Scotland :
Stop, reader, here. until my life you've read,
The living may gain knowledge from the dead:
Four times live years I lived a virgin's life,
Ten times five years I was a mart ied wife,
Ten times five years a widcw, grave and chaste ;
Now, weary'd of this mortal life, I rest.
I, from my cradle to my grave, have seen
Eight mighty Kings of Scotland and a Queen ;
Four times five years the Commonwealth I saw,
Ten times the subjects rise against the law ;
Twice did I see old Prelacy pulled down, -
And twice the cloak did sink beneath the gown ;
An end of Stuart's race I saw, nay, more,
I saw my country sold for English ore ;
Such desolation in my time has been,
That I've an end of all perfection seen.

N.B.—A StoCic of Sheffield PLATED GOODS at 25 per

KENDALL'S ORIGINAL CIVET CAT,
No. S,.CHUReff-STREET, LIVERPOOL.

BEST HATS, TWENTY SHILLINGS.
Warranted not to wear White on the Square.
BIRT and CO. having recently visited the London and
S
Paris Markets, can. -now offer to the Public the most
prevailing shapes of the present day : they would endeavour
to avoid that unfair system of puffing, now so much resorted
to by persons in the Hat Trade, who hold out advantages
which they cannot realize, and whose only reliance for the
favours of the Public is dependant on their offering wonderful
bargains, which, When sought after, are found not to be in
existence.

Being Manufaettireriv,and owing to their connexion with
one of the principal London Houses for the last Six Years,
and also possessing a thorough knowledge of the different
qualities of Furs, and the bast markets for buying them,
S. B. and Co. are thereby enabled to offer the best Beaver
Hats which can be made for 20s. cash, warranted equal to
any that can be bought for 265. to 285., effecting a saving to
purchasers of 6s. or Ss. per Hat, which a single trial will
prove. _ _

Prime NHS Silk Hat, particularly recommended, war-
ranted not to spot with rain, or be discoloured with sea air,
only 6s. 9d. ; very best ditto, Short Nap, 10s.
