An Effectual Cure of Rheumatism in Lincolnshire.

Ltscot.N, March 23. 183S—Sir,--I have the pleasure to
inform yon of the following cure :—William Rawson, of
Normanby, near Spittal, Lincoln, has been suffering a long
time with Rheumatism, his left hand and all up his arms
being useless from pain and swelling. Seeing Blaii's Pills
advertised for Rheumatism, he applied to me to know if I
thought he would be relieved if he took the Pills. I recom-
mended him to try a box, he bought one; and came the next
week to say he felt much relieved, as the swelling of his hand
had gone nearly down : he however finished the box, and
bought a second, and came this day (March 23, 1838) to say
that he had taken the second box of Pills, and that he was
well, free from swelling, and able to use his hand as usual.
-This. Sir, is not the only case of touch benefit I have been
made acquainted with, received by taking BLAIR'S GOUT
AND RHEUMATIC PILLS; every week fresh cases of
cure and relief come before my notice. But Wm. Rawson,
feeling much gratitude from the relief he has received, begs
to inform you of the same, and hopes otherS may he induced '
to try such a valuable medicine fur Rheumatism or Gout.

It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victims to the
Venereal Diseaie wing to the unskilfulness of illiterate
men, who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin
the constitution, and cause ulcerations, with blotches on the
head, face, and body, dimness in the sight, noise in the ears,
deafness, obstinate gleets, and nodes on the shin bones, till
at length a general debility and decay of the constitution
ensues, and a melancholy death puts a-period to their dread-

venereal diseases, gonorrhcea, gleets, strictures, semina-
weakness, in the tOlttr, affections of the kidneys, gravel, lum-
bago, local debility, irritation of the bladder or urethra, and
other diseases of the urinary passages, frequently performing
a perfect cure in the short. space of three days, by one small
pill for a dose, with ease, secresv, and safety. The certainty
with which they are continually administered can be attested
by many thousands. Tne Specific Pills root out every parti-
cle of insidious poison, purifying in their progress the whole
mass of fluids. They not only remove the disease, but reno-
vate by their action the different functions of the body, ex-
pelling the grosser humours. and in a manner so mild and

. .
imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their asto-
nishing and unequalled powers. They neither contain mer-
cury nor any other mineral, and may be taken without the
slightest suspicion of discovery. 't iiey require no restraint of
diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business, but effect a coin
plete cure' without the least exposure to the patient. At any
period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well
to have recourse to the Specific Pills, for when taken before
the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain pre-
ventative, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly.
Messrs. PERRY, Surgeons, continue to direct their stu-
dies to those dreadful debilities arising from the too free and
indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only
occasion a numerous train of nervous affections, and entail
on its votaries all the enervating imbecilities of old age, but
weaken and destroy all the bodily senses, occasioning loss of
itnagination, judgment, and memory, indifference and aver-
sion for all pleasures. In that distressing state of debility or
deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful habits, exces-
sive drinking, or any other cause, by which the powers•of
the constitution become enfeebled, they offer a firm, safe, and
speedy restorati n to sound and vigoinos health._

THE LIVERPOOL SOCIETY FOR RECLAIMING
UNFORTUNATE FEMALES.
(Organised 13th March, 1838.)

TT is deeply affecting that in this Christian land there should
he so many unhappy Females infesting the streets of all
our large towns; corrupting the morals of our youth, and in
various ways exerting a most baneful influence upon society.
In Liverpool alone there are thousands of these outcasts of
the human race
,perishing; in their wickedness, without any
adequate effort being made to save them. It is true we have
a benevolent and praiseworthy institution in our "Female
Penitentiary," which has afforded refuge to numbers of these
unfortunate creatures, and has been happily the means of
effectually reclaiming many from their wretched course of
life; but it is not commensurate with the wants of the case.
Something more ought to be done—these abandoned females
ought to be sought out and faithfully warned of their a ulitl
state and danger, and, if possible, be persuaded to repent and
turn from their wickedness. They should be told that, although
their easels very bad, it is not hopeless, and that there is mercy
even for thorn. In the hope or accomplishing these important
objects, the above society was organised. It employs gra-
tuitous agents, of known piety and integrity, who seek out
and expostulate with the females in question, with the view
of reclaiming them. And it provides cheap lodgings in reli-
gious
.families for such of them as are manifestly willing and
anxious to reform their life—and it allows, them a small sum
for subsistence until restored to their friends, or otherwise
provided for. The females who avail themselves of the pro-
tection and assistance of the society, are regularly visited at
their lodgings by a Committee of Ladies; and as their per-
manent reformation cannot, with any confidence, be an-
ticipated. but on the ground of their sound and Scrip-
tural conversion, they are daily and diligently instructed
with the view of promoting that important end, although the
society has been in existence only six months, yet the Divine
blessing has so attended its operations, that sixty-seven fe-
males have already been taken off the streets, and most of
them given satisfactory evidence of true conversion—too have
died sincere penitents, enjoying., religious peace—nine have
been restoredlo their friends—twenty-two have been placed
in situations, in which they give very encouraging satisfac-
tion, and thirty-four remain at the Society's lodgings. The
receipts of the Society have been £155 I.Bs 6d, and the ex-
penditure £155 12s 6d; leaving, at present, a balance in hand
of only six shillings! Such being the pecuniary circumstances
of the Society, the Committee beg to lay the above statements
before the Public. and earnestly to solicit the assistance of
the Patriot, the Philanthropist, the Clergy, the Magistracy,
and all Christians, on behalf of an institution whose opera-
tions are so calculated to be a general benefit to the town, as
well as to "save those who are ready to perish." According
to the lowest calculation, a sum not less than £3OOO weekly
is expended in this town alone in the support of prostitution!
whilst, probably, not more than £2O a-week is contributed
for the rescue of its wretched victims! Should this be so?
What! £3OOO a-week to spread crime, disease, and death,
and only £2O to arrest their fearful progress! Shall there be
a sum so enormous paid to destroy the souls of such a numer-
ous class of wretched, deluded, and deluding females! and
only a one hundred and fiftieth part of that amount given to
effect their present and eternal salvation? Men of Israel,
help!" and wipe away this terrible reproach, by liberally
supporting a Society whose object is, by the blessing of God',
to make a determined stand against prostitution so awfully
prevalent, and to "seek and save" its perishing victims.
The following Donations and Annual Subscriptions of a
sovereign each and upwards, the Committee beg now grate-
fully to acknowledge; and at the same time, to state that ad-
ditional Subscriptions or Donations are earnestly solicited,
and will be thankfully received by the President, the Secre-
taries, Mr. Radcliffe, any Member of the Committee (from
whom more detailed information respecting the institution
may be obtained,) or at the Banks and Hotels, where Sub-
scription-books are permitted to be open.
Ladies' cast-off clothes, suitable for these females, who are
frequently destitute in this respect, will be a very acceptable
present. Work is also solicited for them.

pany as a breach of faith towards this town, whose support
they obtained in 1836 and 1837, against the same measure,
when promoted by the South Union Company, this Meeting
feels called upon to oppose
.the project, as it cannot have be-
come more beneficial or proper by the . mere change of the
hands promoting it."
In the former of these resolution it is assmed, that the
Manchester and Birmingham Railway Company do not in-
tend to effect the Junction authorised by Parliament under

their present Act with the Grand Junction Railway at Chet):
sey, au assumption which the Directors are compelled to
characterise as utterly unfounded.

The latter resolutitin alleges that the Company in seeking
an extension of their Railway by way of the Trent valley to
Rugby, have broken faith with the town of Stafford. This
imputation the Directors declare to be in like manner un-
warranted by the facts.
It is very much to be re,greted that, at a meeting profess-
ing to be called for purposes of inquiry, the discussion should
have been conducted, and the resolutions no doubt prepared;
as they certainly were read, by the Solicitor to the Grand
Junction Company, sent there, not to advance the interests
of the town of Stafford, but to impart a complexion to the
proceedings suited to the particular views of those whom he
represented. And the Ditectors conceive that they have Just
occasion of complaint, that the influence of your station as

Mayor, should have been given, even in appearance, to pro-
ceedings of an exparte kind, and that, without reference to
or communication with this Company, resolutions have been
passed under your authority misrepresenting their intentions
and reflecting upon their conduct. At the proper time, which
will be before a Parliamentry Committee, the Directors will
be quite ready to meet any charge of breach of faith, by
whomsoever preferred, either as regards their proceedings
with the Grand Junction Railway Company, or with the
town of Stafford. The former, indeed, will do well to bear in
mind that this Board distinctly imputes to them the very
charge which they make against this Company, in, first, as-
senting to the present line of the Manchester and Birming-
ham Railway through the Potteries and pledging themselves
to assist it, and then, so soon as the Act was obtained and
the fear of a Trent line as they conceived removed, endea-
vouring to prevent the construction of the Railway which

. ,
they had thus pledged themselves to support, by refusing any
and all arrangement with this Company, unless " Crewe"
were their ultimate point.
With respect to the town of Stafford, it has, or course, a
claim to tne improved communication with the Potteries and
Manchester, which the line of the Manchester and Birming-
ham Company holds out, and if it obtain those advantages,
as .nu doubt it will, this Company will have discharged its
obligations to the borough, not only without aid from, but
against the wish of the Grand Junction Railway CoMpany.
So far from joining in the lamentation of Mr. `lx. Frith, one
of the speakers at your late meeting, that " with regard to
the manufactures of the place, in case of the projected line
being adopted, Stone would have en advantage over Stafford,"
the Directors of this Company rejoice that the manufactures
of Stone are likely to receive the impulse which the con-
struction of the Trent Railway cannot fail to afford; and
though the circumstance of a neighbouring town being placed
upon a footing of equality with yourselves, may perhaps
account for (itcannot justify) the hostility of Stafford to the
project, such a fact supplies fresh motives to the Directors
for vigorously pursuing the undertaking, and will no doubt
encourage the public to continue to support have the
honour to be, Sir, your very obedient servant,
