BY SPECIAL APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY AND ALL

THE ROYAL FAMILY

SCHWEPPE'S SODA AND POTASS WATERS,

CRATED LEMONADE.

THE continued preference of the Public for the above
celebrated preparations (notwithstanding the low price
at which imitations are rendered), so abundantly proves
their superior quality, that it only remains for the manufac-
turers to express their acknowledgments, and to caution
consumers against an imposition frequently practised by un-
principled persons filling SCHWEPPE'S bottles with a
spurious composition, and passing it off as SCH WEPPE'S
manufacture. None are genuine without a label represent-
ing the name of their firm.
SCHWEPPE'S LIQUID MAGNESIA.
This elegant solution is produced by the aid of their power-
ful machinery skilfully directed, and consists of the purest
distilled water, and the best carbonate of magnesia. This
invaluable alkali in the fluid form is so rapidly superseding
its use in the solid state for cases of Gout, Gravel, Diseases
of Children, Sea Sickness, &c., avoiding, as it does, the in-
jurious tendency of the latter to lodge and accumulate in the
bowels, that the Public attention cannot be too often directed
to the source where they may obtain the preparation in the
highest state of perfection. Manufactured at 51, Berners%
street, London ; and sold, wholesale, at their branch manu-
factories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby, and at the Lon-
don Patent Medicine flouses.
Export orders manufactured especially for Warm Climates.
Importers of GERMAN SELTZER WATER, in Quarts
and Pints.

TO THE GENTLEMEN (PRINCIPALS) ENGAGED
IN RETAIL TRADES OF EVERY DENOMINA-
TION IN LIVERPOOL.
The humble Petition of their Assistants—represented by
the Committee of a body entitled " The Association of
Assistant Tradesmen of Liverpool."
SHOWN,
'THAT your Petitioners have assembled in Public Meeting,
1 at the Clarendon Rooms, on the Gth of May, 1841, pur-
suant to advertisement, to consider and propose means in
furtherance of their long-cherished desire to obtain a cur-
tailment of the Hours of Businesswhen it was
Unanimously resolved,
That an opinion having been expressed, at a numerous
Meeting of the Inhabitants of the Town, that Ten Hour's
a-day are amply sufficient for the purposes of business of
Retail Traders and public requirement, and that such a re-
duction in the hours of labour would greatly promote the
moral, religious, and social improvement of the Assistants,
this Meeting does, in conformity with such expression of
public opinion, respectfully petition► the Employers to call a
Meeting of their own body, to take the subject into consi-
deration, and adopt such measures as may to them appear
desirable, and which shall enable their Assistants to terml-
nate their labours at Seven o'clock in the Evening during
Summer and Winter; and that the Committee of the Asso-
ciation of Assistant Tradesmen be empowered to prepare and
circulate such petition.
That, in accordance with the above resolution, your peti-
tioners humbly solicit that you will take their case into your
benevolent consideration, and that you will exercise such
means of promoting their object as shall appear to you the
best calculated speedily to accomplish it without prejudice to
your own interests.
That your petitioners have heard with feelings of deep
regret that an opinion prevails among a portion of your body
—especially among a small number of highly infinential em-
ployers in the Drapery Trade, that an attempt was meditated
to coerce them into compliance with the desires of your Pe-

- -
titioners.
That your Petitioners respectfully, but emphatically and
indignantly, disclaim every such thought or intention—and
in craving public sympathy they have believed, and yet be-
lieve, that they have gained friends to a cause alike beneficial
to yourselves and to your Petitioners, without prejudicing
any individuals in the estimation of the world.
That your Petitioners are impressed with a conviction that
your interests are theirs, and they humbly hope that a mea-
sure of relief, so strongly recommended by the Inhabitants
of the Town, will be awarded them by you in that kindly
spirit of Christian love which is the best adornment of the
human heart.

And your Petitioners will ever pray, &c.
On behalf of the Committee of the Association of Assistar
Tradesmen of Liverpool,

E. FLOWER, Chairman
Cwfrnosittee Room, 27, Church-strot, Bth May•lB4l.
