PROSPECTUS.
IT it proposed to apply to Parliament, in the next session,
to incorporate a Company for the purpose of constructing
a Navigable Canal from the Duke of Bridgewater's Canal,
near Altrincham, to the Middlewich Branch of the Ellesmere
and Chester Canal, near its junction with the Trent and
Mersey Canal, at Middlewich, in the county palatine of
Chester, to be called " THE MANCHESTER AND
BIRMINGHAM JUNCTION CANAL."
The proposed Canal will be sixteen miles in length, and
and forms the shortest side of a triangle; the existing route,
by the Bridgewater and the Grand Trunk Canals, forms the
other two sides, and these being together thirty-four miles in
length, it is obvious that the proposed Canal will effect a saving
of eighteen miles of distance. To this must be added the
important advantage of improved construction.
Among the principal objects to be attained by the forma-
iion of this Canal, are the following :-
Ist, It will complete the best and most direct Canal route
front Manchester to the Staffordshire Iron and Coal District,
and to Birmingham.
2ndly,—lt will afford an essential improvement (already
too long delayed) in the water communication between Man-
chester, the Staffordshire Potteries, the Eastern Counties,
and Loudon. _ _ _

3rdly,—lt will establish a direct line of Canal between
Manchester and the Mines, Quarries, Ironworks, and Agri-
cultural Districts of Shropshire and North Wales.
Mthly,—lt will open a much shorter Canal Navigation
betwee❑ Manchester and the City and Port of Chester.
sthly,—lt will give to the town of Knutsford, and the
highly productive agricultural part of Cheshire, through
which the Canal will run, the cheapest means of intercom-
munication, and of access to the Manchester Markets, and
Districts abounding in Lime and Coal.
It is proposed that the Canal shall be constructed upon the
most improved principles; and in reference to this object
Mr. ProviS has laid down the line and formed his calculations.
Double towing paths throughout the whole line, walled
sides to the waterway, no contraction of the width of water-
way at bridges, and locks that can be passed in the shortest
time, are some of the intended improvements. These will
not only tend to lessen the cost of future repairs, and save
time and risk to the Carrier, but the Canal will be adapted
for increased rates of speed either by horse or steam power.
In its direction the Canal will be nearly straight, and in
its levels there will be only the general fall of the country.
It will avoid all parks and ornamental grounds, will pass
over land of only ordinary value, and be encumbered with
no physical difficulties.
It is an extraordinary fact that. no Canal has yet been
made for the accommodation Manchester in its southern
traffic, and consequently the trade has been compelled to
adopt the circuitous, dilatory, and expensive routes intended
for other purposes. The proposed Canal will remedy the
evil, and give to Manchester a direct communication with
the central and southern districts of the kingdom.
REVENUE OF THE CANAL.
_

According to the evidence on traffic given before a Com-
mittee of the House of Lords on the Cheshire Junction
Railway Bill, in 1836, it was proved that the •,,..ater carriage
between Manchester and the following places, viz., Birming-
ham, West Bromwich, Weduesbury, Worcester, Gloucester,
Wolverhampton, Dudley, Bilston, Tipton, Stourbridge,
Stourport, Shropshire, Shrewsbury, South Wales, the Pot-
teries, Newcastle, Stone, Stafford, Nantwich, Chester, Mid-
illewich, Sandbach. Northwich, and Staffordshire, amounted
annually to 364,098 tons. The trade direct from Manchester
to London is not included in the foregoing, but is itself
nearly as great in amount;—or say together about 700,(X)0
tons. These sources alone, if calculated at the moderate
tonnage rate of-lp. per ton per mile, would produce £70,0(0
per annum, and if for this he deducted 5:5000 for repairs and
maintenance, there would remain a clear surplus revenue or
profit of thirteen per cent. per annum upon the expended
capital.
It is, however, held by those conversant in the traffic. of
'Manchester and the surrounding districts, that much of the
Yorkshire and northern trade will be passed through the
Proposed Canal On its way to London and the south. This
has not been included in the foregoing statement ; but if,
added to the local traffic and that general increase of com-
mercial intercourse consequent upon increased facilities, it
may not be unreasonable to assume the probable profit at
twenty per cent. per annum.
Applications for Shares, in the following form, will be
received at the Company's Office, No. 90, Fountain-street,
Manchester.

Canal Company.

It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victims to the
Venereal Disease 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 hones, till
at length a general debility and decay of the constitution
ensues, and a melancholy death puts a period to their dread-
ful sufferiogs.

PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price 2s.
9d. and Ils. per box, a certain, safe, and the most speedy re-
medy ever discovered for the permanent and effectual cure of
venereal diseases, gonorrhoea, gleets, strictures, semina-
weakness, in the loins, 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, secrecy, and safety. The certainty
with which they are continually administered can he 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. They require no restraint of
diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business. but effect a com-
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 ohl age, but
weaken and destroy all the bodily senses, occasioning loss of
imagination, 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 vigorous health.
TERRY'S VEGETABLE PILLS are well known for
the certain and effectual remedy of secondary symptoms,
venereal eruptions, pains in the bones, ulcerated sore throat,
diseased rose, chronic rheumatism, scrofula, scorbutic and
glandular affections, local and general debility, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, depression of spirits, and all
diseases arising from an impure state of the blood.
Letters from the country, post-paid, containing a remittance
for medicine, will be immediately answered.

MONS. AIALLAN'S
TENTH ANNUAL VISIT TO LIVERPOOL.

SCURVY IN THE GUMS EFFECTUALLY
REMOVED.
INCORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH,
PLACED WITHOUT WIRES OR OTHER LIGATURES,
AND
MINERAL SUCCEDANEUM,

FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH, WITHOUT PAIN, HEAT, OR

PRESSURE.
MONSIEUR MALLAN, Siirgeon-Dentist, of the firm
of Messieurs J. M. and S. Malian, 10, Ludgate-hill,
London, begs to inform his Friends and Patrons, the Nobi-
lity, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liverpool and its Vicinity,
that he has been induced to make his Tenth Annual Visit,
and may now be consulted daily, for a short period, at No.
93, (late 46,) Bold-street, next to the Savings' Bank, and
hopes to receive a continuance of their liberal Patronage,
from Nine till Seven daily.

Mons. M. continues restore Decayed Teeth, however
large the cavity, with their celebrated Mineral Succedaneum,
so universally recommended by the Faculty of London and
Paris.

The operation of Stopping Teeth is performed in a few se-
conds. The Mineral is put into the cavity in an. almost liquid
state, without heat or pressure; it. hardens into enamel,
allays the most excruciating pain, and lasts for many years,
preventing the necessity of extraction.
Loose Teeth fastened, whether arising from age, neglect,
disease of the gums, or the use of calomel.
Incorrodible Artificial Teeth, from a single one to a com-
plete set, matching exactly in form and colour the adjoining
oi.es. These Teeth will not corrode, or become discoloured ;
they are fixed without wires, or other ligatures, on a principle
which imparts to the countenance a youthful and improved
appearance; and whilst they afford support to the adjoining
teeth, however loose, answer every purpose of mastication
and articulation.

Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums, th”re
is 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. MA ',LAN has to inform them, thatthey can effectually
remove this destroying complaint by a single application,
without the slightest pain.
To Clergymen and Public Orators labouring ❑nder defec-
tive pronunciation, Mons. M.'s method of replacing Teeth
will be found peculiarly valuable, as it obviates all defects of
articulation, particularly the inability to give the proper
sound to the lento•lingual double consonant Tu.
The use of Artificial Teeth, in some instances, has been
found objectionable by invalids taking medicines that have
a tendency to discolour them, or in the performance of oper-
ations which compel their removal, perhaps, in the presence
of an attendant or domestic. Mons. M., however, has been
successful in removing these objections, by constructing
Teeth for those purposes, of substances, and in such a man-
ner, as to render them capable of withstanding effects of the
most inimical nature.

Natural ee placed on the above improved principle.
N.B.—Hours of Attendance from Ten till Five.
Mons. M. particularly invites the Numbers of the Faculty
to witness the operation of filling Decayed Teeth with their
Mineral Succedaueum, of which they are the sole inventors
and possessors.
_ .

Charges strictly moderate, according to the quality of the
work supplied.
May now be consulted, for a short period, at No. 93, ( late 46,)
