1/JR. B. trusts a consideration for the pecuniary loss sus-
LVI. by him in rescuing Five Hundred English Fish-
ermen from oppression and wrong in Ireland, and their
families from the appalling consequences, will urge the
English Public to aid him ill ameliorating his circumstances,
which the relief then afforded to their oppressed Countrymen,
with other similarly benevolent acts, so considerably deteri-
orated, as to have mainly hitherto obstructed his intentions
of taking Orders.
He feels assured that his respectability, the academic dis-
tinction which he has attained, and, above all, the abia-
lug influence of religious obligations, with the aid of compe-
tent assistants, of which he avails himself, will afford a suf-
ficient guarantee for the faithful and efficient discharge of the
trust to which he now lays his claims, founded on the reli-
gious, moral, and literary testimonials which are provided
by, and may be seen on application to him.

TESTIMONIALS

" I am desirous to express my-opinion of Mr. James
Clarke, late of London, (a gentleman with whom I have for
many years had the pleasure to be acquainted,) as a Musical
Professor of distinguished ability and an excellent performer.
"Liverpool, May 29, 1837. SAMUEL WEBBE."

" Madame Zieltzke presents her compliments to Mr.
Clarke, and is most happy to offer this acknowledgment of
the high opinion entertained of his talents as an excellent
Master both for Theory and Practice, when her young ladies
had the benefit of his instructions : and she begs to add, that
it continues unaltered, and that it would afford her much
real pleasure should her recommendation at any time become
useful to him.

"29, Upper Bedford-place, London, 14th March, 1832."
" Mrs. Gabhett presents her compliments to Mr. Clarke :
she regrets extremely Mr. Clarke is leaving Limerick, as she
never had so good a Music Master, nor so perfectly satis-
factory in every respect. Sho hopes Mr. Clarke may succeed
where he means to settle in future.

' 78, George's-street, Limerick, June, 10th, 1841."

TO THE ELECTORS OF SOUTH LANCASHIRE.
GENTLEMEN,
IT has become my duty to return my grateful acknowledg-
ments for the honour you have conferred upon me in
electing me for a third time your Representative in Parlia-
ment.

The expression of my sincere gratitude is due, in the first
instance, to that great body of the Electors who were pre-
pared, if called upon, to record their votes in my favour.
My acknowledgments are also due to my late opponent, Mr.
Towneley, and to those of his supporters who declined to
protract a contest when its continuance was not, in their
opinion, justified by a rational prospect of success.

.
Whether I look to the circumstances of the present poli-
tical crisis, or to the character and qualifications of the Can-
didate who has retired, in justice personally to him, and I
hope without offence to others, I claim this result as a signal
triumph to those Conservative principles which I have advo-
cated on former occasions.

I claim it further as a victory on that particular field which
her Majesty's Government has selected whereon to battle
for its own existence.

I am aware that I have the misfortune to differ with many
persons of character, experience, and ability, on the subject
of the recent financial proposals of that Government. it is
possible that, had the contest continued, some gentlemen
would have overlooked this difference, and, in virtue of the
general accordance of their political opinions with my own,
have continued to me the support they have afforded to me
on former occasions. In this case the balance of opinion on
the recent measures of Ministers would not have been strictly
measured by the numbers of the poll, and I cannot, and do
not, claim the present result as a faultless indication of the
preponderance of my own opinions. I do, however, respect-
fully claim it as an indication of a very prevalent accordance
with those opinions—as a virtual ratification, by a vast and
most important County constituency, of the verdict passed
by London, Liverpool, Leeds, and Hull, on the measures in
question. _

I feel, Gentlemen, on the present occasion, more deeply
than I have ever felt, the weight of the responsibility which
you have imposed, and I have accepted. In the Parliament
about to assemble I will endeavour to justify your choice
J have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient, humble servant,•
Wonky Hall, July, 1841

FOR THE GROWTH, PRESERVATION; AND EM-

BELLISHMENT OF THE HAIR

MIDDLEIVOOD' S BOTANIC OR FAMILY HAIR

T M. respectfully solicitsairial of this inestimable Oil,
• o where its efficacy is not known. It is patronised by
families of distinction, and held in high estimation at the
Toilet. It has been proved, by many experiments, in restor-
ing the Hair, when every other application has failed ; and
when the Hair is on the decline, or becoming grey, it reno-
vates and produces its original lustre.

The PrOprietor's TR CATISE ON HAIR, sold at Id.
each, contains testimonials of the efficacy of the Botanic Oil(;
and also, interesting remarks upon the growth and preserva-
tion of the human hair. By a Medical Gentleman in Dublin.

In answer to inquiries, J. M. ;;;;aiiiiii-In&WV;
Friends and the Public he is making arrangements which
will insure to the Public the Genuine Botanic Oil in all parts
of the Kingdom in its pure and unadulterated state; and
should any doubts exist of the great utility of the Botanic Oil,
the Proprietor refers them to the decision of the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, and the testimonials proved before Parlia-
ment on the 10th April, 1830. J. M. also wishes to apprise
the Public of various attempts to suppress the sale of the
Botanic Oil, not by competition, but by secret means. Ven-
dors throughout the Kingdom were cautioned against selling
Middlewood's Soap and Oil, us it was subject to Medicine
Duty ; and informations were laid against the Proprietor.
J. M. acknowledges the informations, at two distant periods,
each penalty £5O ; but in case the Proprietor had sold the
above illegally, it proves the article superior to anything sold
avowedly for the same use, as no similar article was ever
charged with duty. J. M. will for the present offer no com-
ments ; the proceedings adopted to suppress the sale is the
best possible recommendation ; and so well satisfied is go-
vernment of the great utility of the Botanic Oil, that no
further interruption will be given to the sale of the Botanic
Oil and Vegetable Soap, which will be found of more exten-
sive sale than any other similar articles.
J. 51. has substituted Pot Boxes in lieu of Bottles, as more
convenient ; the present reduced price is 25., 3s. Gd., 55., and
in Bottles, for the Toilet, 10s. Wholesale and Export
Orders on the shortest notice.

J. M. will engage that, where the Botanic Oil is used,
either in Public Seminaries or Families, the hair and scalp
shall never be infected with any cutaneous disease, as ring-
worm, &c. &c., such is its etnolient properties.
Orders, with references or remittances, addressed to
J. MIDDLEWOOD,
, LIVEIIPOOL,
will be duly foPARKER-STREETrwarded, with customary allowances. The
Botanic Oil is a valuable speculation, as no article can com-
pete with it as Elair Oil.
