or moulds, and remains good for any length of time in any
climate. The process of filtration causes the colouring mat-
ter to be held in suspension ; hence the trouble and inconve-

ordinary Inkstands, are completely obviated by the use of
the FILTER INKSTAND. One of moderate size will

FRIGLE'S
EMPORIUM FOR FOREIGN AND BRITISH SHAWLS,
50, BOLD-STREET, NEXT THE MUSIC-HALL.

MR. SMITH respectfully intimates to the Ladies and
Gentlemen of Liverpool and its environs, that he con-
tinues to teach the polite and, from Itoyal adoption, increas-
ingly fashionable ART of .RIDING, on prine4Ples which
combine ease and elegance with confidence and pfrfect safety,
at his commodious School, which, while it is.fecluded from
all observation, possesses from its sitnationlie desirable ad-
vantage of a highly salubrious and exhilarating atmosphere.
Mr. S. considers it a duty incumbent upon himself to cor-
rect and supersede an erroneous impression which some few
persons unacquainted with his system have imbibed, as much
probably from prejudice as a disinclination to give it an in-
vestigation,lhat his mode of teaching savours too much of
the stiff military school ; to which he thinks it only-neces-
sary to advert (and it is with a feeling of proud conscious-
ness) to his long-established reputation, conferred by the
patronage of most of the first families in the town and
neighbourhood, as also many distinguished foreigners, from
many of whom he has received written commendatory ac-
knowledgments, as well of the excellence of his peculiar
system, as his unwearied zeal and attention to his pupils.
N.B.—Ladies' Skirts provided at the School. Horses
carefully broke for Ladies and Gentlemen.

Sold in Pot Boxes, at 25., 3s. 6d., and 55., and in Family

MIDDLEWOOD' S' GENUINE BOTANIC OIL.
M. respectfully recommends the use of a small box,
el • to prove the superior efficacy of the Botanic Oil,
where not known ; it has never failed to renovate and
produce a luxuriant growth of hair, when every other appli-
cation has failed ; it is free from the corrossive ane drying
properties of compound oils, and, when dissolved, is as pure
as spring water; it renders the scalp agreeably cool, soft,
and healthy ;it eradicates dandruff, and produces t richest
fragrance and lustre, even when the hair is e decline
and turning grey. J. M. is well aware of t great utility
of the Botanic Oil, and the inconvenience occasioned to his
Agents by not being regularly supplied, and assures them
that arrangements are now making that will enable him to
meet the increasing demand.
J. M. has, in addition to his extensive Stock of Fruits,
just received from Five to Six Hundred Dozens of the Finest
Shaddocks and Forbidden Fruit ; also, ten large Cases of
New Tafilat or Preserved Dates ; which, with his Preserved
Tamarinds, Ginger Lives, Shaddock and Orange Marma-
lades, he will sell in small jars and packages, for the conve-
nience of families in town and country; at wholesale prices.
An allowance will also be made to purchasers of the Botanic
Oil, or Vegetable Oil Soap, by the dozen or half-dozen.

THE celebrated Cordial BALM of SYRIACUM or
NATURE'S GRAND RESTORATIVE. '
There .is nothing more remarkable in the social habits of
the present day, and more particularly in those of the past
century, than a general disregard to the maxims of prudence
in regard to health and enjoyment. Hence the Ast multi-
tudes who, having acquired the portion of a e eebled con-
stitution, are ddomed to the class of habitual valids. Their
ive
minds anxious, unsteady, or sluggish, and their bodies
weak, the natural functions of life are discharged laboriously,
with pain and difficulty. For this state of nervous derange-
ment, the celebrated •
CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM
will be found to have peculiar efficacy, strengthening the lan-
guid system and shedding new hope on the mind. A perse-
verance in its use has been the happy means of relieving
many thousands, and of restoring a great number to the per-
manent enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in
all disorders of the digestive organs, and is especially recom-
mended to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age,
habits of studious application, or a life of pleasure, have
fallen into a despondent state of mind, and that distressing
train of symptoms commonly denominated the NERVOUS.'
In such persons the mental are not less enfeebled than the
corporeal, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, with-
out interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable.
Its primary object is to relieve those persons who, by an
immoderate indulgence in their passions, have ruined their
constitutions and brought on a perfect tabis dorsalis; or, in
their way to the consummation of that deplorable malady,
the affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray
its approach, as the various affections of the nervous system,
obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregu-
larity, weakness, total impotency, barrenness. Sic. But
the relief the CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM ge-
nerally administers is not confined to these alone : the
latitudinarian by birth, who has received from his parents
the inheritance of a diseased and unprolific frame—the deli-
cate female, whom an immured and inactive life, together
with an immoderate use of tea and other weak and watery
aliments, has, without any fault of hers, brought on all the
calamitous symptoms of a consumptive habit, and are, with-
out timely assistance, sinkieg into a premature grave ! Such
as these, under Divine Influence, the Cordial Balm of Sy-
riacurn will restore to the enjoyment of all the comforts of
life. It is universally admired, being pleasant to the taste and
smell, gently astringes the fibres of the stomach, and gives
that proper tensity which a good digestion requires.
To the young it will afford lasting health, strength, and
spirits, in place of lassitude and debility, and to the aged and
infirm it will assuredly furnish great relief and comfort, by
gently and safely invigorating the system. It will not give
immortality, but if it be in the power of medicine to gild the
autumn of declining years, and calmly and serenely protract
the close of life beyond its narrow span, this restorative is
capable of effecting. this grand desideratum.
The Cordial is highly esteemed in the East and West In-
dies
for nourishing and invigorating the nervous system and
acting as a general restorative on debilitated constitutions,
arising from bilious complaints contracted in hot climates.
The studious as well as the sedentary part of the community
should never be without the Cordial Balm of Syriacurn,
which removes .diseases of the head, invigorates the mind,
reproves the memory, and enlivens the imagination.

SIGHT RESTORED C!
NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE CURED !
GRIMSTONE'S CELEBRATED EYE SNUFF,
Under the patronage of his late Majesty, her Royal High-
ness the Duchess of Kent, and the Lords of the Treasury,)
TS universally recommended by the Faculty for efficacy
in removing Disorders incident to the Ey and Head.
It will prevent Diseases of a Scrofulous at e affecting the
Nerves of the Head. In cases of Nery ead-ache it is
completely efficacious, and gives a Natura Sweetness to the
Breath. It may be taken as frequently as other Snuffs, with
the most perfect safety and gratification to the consumer.
Wash the eyes every morning with warm milk and water, to
remove whatever secretion may have been produced during
the night.
_

Dr. ABERNETHY used it, and termed it the Faculty's
Friend and Nurse's Vade Mecum.

Dr. ANDREWS also recommends its Use as a preventive.
(See his report when in Sunderland, published in the Times,
Cheltenham Journal, and British Traveller, in Nov. 1831.)
He says, " the herbaceous quality of the snuff had such effect
on the stomach, as well as the nerves of the head, from the
tenacious sympathy of the membrane of the nose with the
nervous system, that Grimstone's Eye Snuff, when taken
frequently, must prevent any contagion entering the system,
and recommends its universal adoption. Dated Nov. 10,1831.
G. J. GUTHRIE, Esq., F.R.S.—This eminent surgeon
strongly recommends Grimstone's Eye Snuff. See J. B.
Lachfield's, Esq., letter.

influence on the nervous fabric of the head, possesses the un-
questionable power of relieving, assisting, and prolonging the
sight even to extreme old age.--E. 10.3:9.—"

nent oculist, James are,F was so strongly im-
pressed with the utility of snuff uade. of tobacco, that in
the third volume of the Medical Society s Works, page 334,
this able oculist read several cases of gutta serene cured by
the plentiful use of snuff. Phis snuff was made without the
aid of tobacco, that being too great a narcotic to be used as
a remedy. The anticipations of this gentlemen have been
fully realised by Mr. William Grimstone, the Inventor of
Eye Snuff, made from aromatic herbs, so judiciously ar-
ranged as in almost every case of disease touching the eye,
ear, and the delicate organs of the head, to produce a certain
cure. Editor.
There are, perhaps, few articles which are so universally
used as snuff, and various and innumerable have been the
devices to tickle our noses at the expense of our pockets, but
there is only one snuff—albeit many have been attempted—
which has proved of any value, or indeed realised the inten-
tion of the consumers. Grimstone's Eye Snuff is a delightful
and fragrant compound, and possesses properties peculiarly
its own ; for, unlike all other snuffs, it is really of essential
and important service to persons of studious habits, and of
weak and infirm sight ; and if we may judge by the numerous
medical gentlemen who have borne testimony to its merits,
and the many well authenticated cures it has performed, it is
not undeserving of the high esteem which it has already
attained, not only in this but in other countries."—Old Eng-
land, 11th January, 1840.
"We should be glad to see this snuff in general use. It is
a safe and powerful restorative.—Manchester Chronicle.

Grintstone's Eye Snuff, we should be most happy to throw

SIR' —Having been afflicted with bad eyes for along time,
a friend who had received benefit from using your eye snuff
recommended it to me. I have taken the contents of your
2s. 4d. canisters, and am happy to say my sight has im-
proved; the weakness and dimness is removed; and, sir, it
is my wish wish that you make this known for the good of
the public.

To Mr. W. Griontone, inventor of Eye Snuff, 39, Broad-
street, Bloomsbury.

March 31,1833.
SLR,—I have been afflicted for many years with a severe
pain in my head, attended with a dimness of sight and dart-
ing pains in my eyes, for which I have had the first' medical
advice ; indeed, I have taken large quantities of medicine,
without receiving any relief; but I sill now delighted to say,
with truth, that ever since using your valuable eye snuff, which
1 have taken copiously, that is, a 2s. 4d. canister weekly, I
am quite free from those excruciating pains, and can read the
smallest print, although 1 am in the 65th year of my age.
This is my third testimony, and I shalt be most happy to give
it to you or to any respectable inquirer at my residence as
under.—l remain, with gratitude, sir, your obedient humble
servant, 'E. ROBSON".

7, Skinner's Almshouses, Mile-end, Jan. 26, 1839.
Sir,—l think it my incumbent duty to return you my grate-
ful acknowledgments of the efficacy of your invaluable ` eye
snuff." Yotumust understand, sir, that I have for the last
four or five years suffered much with giddiness in my head
and dimness of sight. I naturally concluded (being in my
69th year) that it was the decay of nature, and was advised
by a friend, who said much in its favor, and the extraordinary
virtues of your celebrated invention, I was induced to give it
a trial, and I am happy to say that the great and signal benefit
I have derived from. the use of four 2s 4d canisters has ena-
bled me to lay aside my spectacles, has given me great relief
in my head, and I feel so thoroughly convinced of its benign
virtues, that my gratitude shall ever he evinced in recom-
mending it to'all I may hereafter meet suffering with those
afflictions.—l am, sir, your most obliged and grateful servant,
To W. Grimstone, Esq. ANN COLE.
To W. Gringstone, sq. inventor of Eye Snnff, 39, Broad-at.
Whitehall, March 8, 1838.
Mr. Grimstone,—Sir, I think it but justice that I should
offer my acknowledgments to you for the great benefit I have
derived from the use of your most exquisite fragrant com-
pound, composed of herbs, called Eye Snuff; its action on
the membrane of the nose, causing the lachrymal glands to
discharge in a manner truly surprising, and by that means.
to cleanse the cornea, that my eyes became healthy, strong,
and performed their wonted duties in a manner that 1 have -
not known the blessing of for six years. The renowned Dr.
Guthrie recommended me to try your eye snuff prior to my
undergoing an operation. Many thanks to him for his sug-
gestion, thanks to your invention, that operation will not be
necessary. Sir, you have my permission to make this known
in any manner you think best.

MONS. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment
permanently at No. 38, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from
Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De-
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the
least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in
an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets. hard, pre-
venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all furthexpro-
gress of decay; and rendering the operation of traction
unnecessary. The Mineral not only conve mere shell

are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally
prevalent, than. Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss
of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It
affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is
the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To .those so
affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them,
that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint
by a single application, without the slightest pain.
Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed

TEETOTAL ELOQUENcE.=—The teetotallers had rneetutgs
at every town in the kingdom on Good Friday—at White
Conduit House among other places, near the ,metrupolis,
where a genuine son of the Emerald Island addressed the
audience in the following terms :—" Some people said the
taytotallers would not support the goverment, and that, if
they had their way, the Queen and her German hul,hand
would not have so much as a red herring for supper.
(Laughter.) Oh, you puny, water-gilled, herring-gutted
wretches,' cried they, ' why don't you support the gov&n-
ment ?' What ! was the government to be supported hi• men
whose hair grew four inches through the crown of their hats,
whose toes knocked against the stones at every step they took,
and whose shirt hung out at their elbows and knees, anti
hadn't smelled soap for three weeks ? The Queen surely did
not wish for such supporters as those. Only think of a fel-
low having a pin stuck in his clothes to keep them together,
they being in such a condition that he could not venture to
stoop, so, that if he saw a sovereign lying on the pavement.
he couldn't pick it up, but must keep kicking it and kickin,-,
it until it flew against a wall, and bounded into the air at sticli
a height that he might catch it in an erect position. Only
think of such a fellow being depended upon as a snpporter of
the government." (Roars of laughter.)
THE BODE LIGHT.—We had an opportunity last night of
witnessing the manner in which this brilliant and beautiful
light is about to be applied in lighting the House of Com-
mons. In his present plan Mr. Gurney-has departed alto-
gether from the former experiment, as far at least as regards
the method of conveying the light into the body of the house.
The side lamps in the glass roof, by which the light was pro-
jected under as well as into the galleries, are to he no longer
used. The chief light will now be cast into the body of the
house from a lamp of about four feet and a half in diameter,
suspended from the centre of the roof, and raised as high as
the front railing of the side galleries. In the centre of this is
placed an argand burner of about two and a half inches in
diameter, in which the oil will be consumed " without a wick"
(which will save the necessity of trimming). Through this a
continued stream of oxygen gas will be made to pass in any
quantity, so as to raise the light to any intensity that may be
required. The brilliant flame thus produced will be cast upon
six large reflectors over and round the burner, and thence
thrown (through -plates of ground glass, forming the bottom
of the lamp) on the floor and sides of the house. In order
to give light to the galleries two other burners are suspended
at a short distance from the roof, and a few yards in front of
the galleries at each end. These, when completed (which
they were riot last night), will be altogether shaded from the
eyes of persons in the house, but will be so connived as to
throw their lights on the roof, the reflection from which will,
it is said, be sufficient for the galleries. The arrangements
for lighting the reporters' gallery are not yet finished, but
we have no doubt that every thing which skill and a desire
to accommodate can do will be done by Mr. Gurney to pro-
duce alight for that part of the house which will give (as far
as that is practicable) satisfaction to all parties. It is im-
possible, until the entire apparatus is complete, and in full
operation, to say whether the plan as a whole will be success-
ful ; but from what we saw last night, and from the explana-
tions given of what is yet to be done, we should say it has
every chance of being so, and that it fully deserves it. One
decided advantage which it will have over candles will be,
that of so fully carrying off the heat generated by the coin-
buation of the oil and oxygen, as to make no perceptible
ohltnga in the temperature of the house.—Times of Tueaay.
