SARSAPARILLA.

ITIHE experience of many years has fully established the re-
i putatiou of this root as an invaluable alterative, restorative,
and purifier of the blood, and as such of its great usefulness in
Scurvy, Scrofulous Affections, Disorders of the Skin, Chronic
Rheumatism, Indigestion, Consumption, General Debility, as
d r well as being the best remedy for those sy ptorns which fre-
quently follow the administration of M cury, and for those
secondary symptoms of Lues Venere hich, if not removed,
lay the foundation of injury to the constitution, from which it
can never recover.
The Compound Decoction of Sarsaparilla, which combines
the stimulant and diaphoretic properties of Mezereon, Guaia-
cum, and Sassafras, is the form which is generally administered
but its preparation is attended with much trouble, and requires
apparatus which few can obtain. All the advantages, without
the convenience, are presented by the concentrated compound
DECOCTION OF SARSAPARILLA, prepared by BENJA-
MIN MoxoN, Chemist, Hull—a preparation which has obtained
extensive patronage both from medical men and the public. It is
so far concentrated by steam, that one table spoonful added.to a
pint of pure water readily forms the Compound Decoction, and
is found to piessess the virtues of the ingredients in a superior de-
gree to the Decoction prepared in the usual way. One very impor-
tant advantage of this preparation is, that a tea spoonful, which
is equal in strength to a quarter of a pint of the Decoction, may
be taken in a wine glass of water, so as not to oppress or relax
the stomach by quantity. Another important advantage is, that
it is the cheapest preparation of Sarsaparilla before the public,
and that it will keep all its virtues in any climate for sevetal
years.

P. Anichini, Esq
With power to add to their number.
BANKERS—Messrs. Stones, Martin, and Stone, and Messrs.
, Wright and Co.
SoLicrroaS--Messrs. Nind and Cdtterell.
THE objects for which this Company is formed are to work
the Mines of Copper, Gold, Silver, or other Metals in the
Island of St. Domingo, and to carry on Streaming Works on
the Banks of the Rivers which flow through the Mining Dis-
tricts, and also to Cultivate Coffee, Cott n, Tobacco, Sugar,
Indigo, &c.
The Committee do not intend to fol!o he example of those
persons who have, directed the affairs of eial Foreign Mining
Companies, by expending large sums o money before it was
ascertained where would be the most fit place to commence
operations. They intend to send proper experienced persons to
make selection from the various Mines included in the general
grant on which they are acting.
Arrangements are made for the cultivation of some of the
best Plantations in the Island of St. Domingo.
To accomplish these points the Committee do not intend to
call for more than £1 per Share, payable in . three months, in
addition to the first deposit; and so soup alipport is obtained
from the Island, a Meeting of the Shareholders will be called,
and the Committee will then be guided by the resolutions which
may he entered into at that Meeting. on all matters in reference
to the Company ; in the mean time the Subscribers will not be
called upon to sign any deeds.
Two Thousand Shares are already Subscribed for.

Applications for the remainder may be made (if by letter,
post-paid,) addressed to the Committee at the Bankers, the So-
licitors, or at the Temporary Office of the Company, 2, Copthall
Chambers, at which Places, and at the Liverpool Standard-
office, Prospectuses may be had, detailing various matter relating
to the Company.

LIVERPOOL TIMBER COMPANY AND SAW MILL
ESTABLISHMENT.
A T a MEETING of the COMMITTEE, held at the Cla-
rendon Rooms, Liverpool, on MONDAY, the 22d February,
1836,
IIENRY B. WALKER, Esq., in the Chair;
It was Resolved;—That in consequence of the very numerous
' applications for .Shares, the Capital be extended to
£500,0a) in 50,000 Shares of £lO each,
and that the IVillowing amended Prospectus be adopted, viz.
No Shareholder to be Liable for more.than his Subscribed Capital.
It is presumed 'the Foreign Tirpter Trade (including Maho-
gany, &c.,) of this Port, inward. offers an incomparable field
for the profitable exercise of a Joint Stock Capital; having for
its object the Protection of the Foreign Merchant, the Ship-
owner, and Importer,—qtnd increasing the facility for supplying
the demands of the Country Dealer and Consumer by being
enabled to anticipate his wants.
It secures at all times a constant supply, by an access to
ample funds, which will be used for the benefit of the Pro-
prietors cullective/y, by an annual division of the profits; whilst
it at the same time provides for the demands of individual Pro-
prietors, (being Dealers or Consumers,) on terms of sound com-
mercial principles. Shareholders making purchases will have
the benefit of established credit with the Company.
The Timber Trade of this port having grown to an immense
extent, and being now accessible only to large Purchasers or
large Capitalists, the operations of this Company will be to open.
the Trade to the moderate Consumer and Country Dealer, and
such persons givinc, their support to this Company will have the
double advantage of being supplied on the best terms and of
sharing the profits of their own purchases.
This Company seeks not to induce any unfair competition,
or to countenance hazardous speculation, Jbut simply to encom-
pass this great and weighty Trade by a chain of communication
and capital, every link of which shall connect its usefulness and
benefit with all those inland places where extensive consump-
tion is going on.
To this effect will the study of the Company be directed, and
it is suggested that the Subscriptions for Shares he confined at •
first to persons who are Shipowners, Importers, Consumers, or
Inland Dealers, or 'whose situation or influence will be likely
to extend the useful business of the Company.
That the Capital of this Company be raised by 50,000 Shares
of £lO each.

That Subscribers shall pay One Shilling per Share for their
Scrip; and within fourteen days after notice, shall pay £1 per
Share into the Bank of the Company (to be appointed); when
their Shares will be delivered; and that a call of £2 per Share
be made within two months after the appointment of Trustees,
Directors, and other Officers; and that a further call of £2
per Share be made at any time after six months, on the Di-
rectors giving twenty-one days' notice tfierecf; silref that no
further call be made until after the first Annual Meeting shall
have been holden, and a Report approved by the Share-
holders at such Meeting.
It is presumed that the paid up capital of £5 per Share will
be amply sufficient for the purposes of the Company, includink
a projected Saw Mill Establishment, the want of which has been
generally acknowledged.
Holders, in their own names, of not exceeding twenty Shares,
to have one vote for each Share, and those holding above twenty
Shares to have an additional vote for every five Shares above
twenty; and in voting by proxy no person shall be allowed to
hold more proxies than five; nor to vote by proxy unless he
is a Shareholder; and persons who hold Shares in the names
of their children, being minors, shall be allowed to vote only
on the aggragate number of their own and such minors' Shares
as if the whole were in the name of one Shareholder. No per-,
son to be allowed to possess snore than 250 Shares.
A Provisional Committee to forward the preliminary ar-
rangements is formed, with power to add to their numbers, who,
early in MARCH, will call a General Meeting to be held
at Liverpool, to elect Trustees and Directors, three of
whom shall be residents in Liverpool, three at Manchester,
one each at Birmingham and such other places where the
Subscribers are numerous, who shall proceed to appoint a
Manager, an experienced person in the Timber Trade, a
Cashier, and other Assistants, all of whom shall produce testi-
monials, and give security for the faithful discharge of their re-
spective official duties.
The Deed of Settlement to be read at the same Meeting, and
after receiving the signatures of the Shareholders then present,
the formation of the Company shall be deemed complete, and
the business be proceeded with.
The Books to be male up half-yearly, and, as soon after as
may be, a General Meeting shall be held at Manchester and
Liverpool alternately, when a balance sheet of the affairs of the
Company shall be exhibited; and if at any time it shall appear
that one-third of the subscribed capital shtill have been lost, the
Company shall be dissolved, its affairs wound up, and the re-
maining-Capital divided amongst the Shareholders.
All transfers of Shares shall be made under the hands of, and
be approved by the Board of Directors, in order to protect the
Company from bad debts.
A detailed Prospectus will be published as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, all applications for Shares must be made to Mr.
Bayr.Ey, 65, King street, Manchester,. Mr. E. WILsoN, 36,
Cohnore-row, Birmingham; or to Mr. J. BACH, Share Broker,

So said Professdr Swedour, when he discovered his grand
PANACEA for this Complaint, The "Hgyean Pills." (then un-
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 of 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 talented 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-
uous 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 imperceptible 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—
they require no restraint of diet, loss of time, or hindrance of
business. The Hvgean Pills may be depended upon as a cei-
tain cure by persons of either sex, in all stages of a certain dis-
ease, and that without producing the least inconvenience. At
any period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be
well to have recourse to the Hvgean Pills, (or when taken be-
fore the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain
preventive, removing the complaint effectually and secretly.
.rhe deplorable state in which many persons have been when
visiting the proprietor from the use of mercury, renders it im-
peratively necessary to caution the public against that danger-
ous mineral when injudiciously administered.

These rills should form a portion of all Medicine Chests by
sea and land, and ought never to be omitted by any person
going a long voyage or journey : their properties are such, that
neither heat nor cold will injure their Quality, or prevent their
due effects on the constitution.

Dr. Davieson will attend daily at his residence, No. 54, Seel-
street, Liverpool, from Eight in the morning until Ten at night,
(on Sundays from Nine till Two,) where he gives advice to all

SPERMACETI OR PECTORAL COUGH DROPS. Per-
sons doubting the efficacy of this Medicine, may take a dose in
the Proprietor's Shop before they purcltase. The Proprietor
earnestly recommends a trial of these Drops to persons afflicted
with the above complaints, but he-,does not introduce them as
being an infallible cure (as many deli:Mt is warranted in assert-
ing their efficacy from the. extensive 'relief afforded in numerous
cases of the above description. Constitutional Coughs of three:
four, and snore years standing, have been cured in the course
of a week by the use of these Drops. In the Hooping and
Chin Coughs it will be found equally valuable, the virtues of
Spermaceti having been known for centuries back, it will be
needless to make a comment upon a Balsam obtained from so
valuable an article. Two tea spoonfuls of the Balsam is equal
to one ounce of Spermaceti—it will at all times relieve the most
violent Consumptive Cough. In Bottles Is. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d.,

ESSENCE OF CAMOMILE AND GINGER.
This preparation is a compound of two of the most valuable
medicines in the vegetable kingdom. It combines the stomachic
properties of the Ginger with the aromatic and bitter qualities
of the Camomile Flowers. The proprietor earnestly recom-
mends this essence to all those suffering as hereafter mentioned:
all he asks is a fair trial, for be can assert, with the greatest
confidence, that he never knew of its failure in any of the cases
it is recommended for, excepting where it has been neglected to
be properly persevered in, fur indigestion, sensation of fulness,
pain and oppression after meals, loss of appetite, whether
arising from excess or want of tone and energy of the digestive
organs ; also for rheumatism, gout, spasms, cramps, hysterics,
flatulence, in immoderate perspiration, nervous, hypochondriacal
and bilious affections, heartburn, languor, general debility, or
a deli.zate state of health, whether the result of long illness, or
constitutional. weakness; it is certain in affording instant relief
in the most violent sick headache. Forty drops of this Essence
is cuual to half a pint of Camomile tea.
