FLEETWOOD.

IUESSRS. ARTHifitaluiohiiii6E WILLIAMS beg
1111 to inform the Merchants, Builders, and Residents of
Liverpool, that they have been appointed AGENTS for the
disposal of BUILDING PLOTS, at the New To Port
Fleetwood, which is situate on the S.W. shore Ai More-
cambe Bay, and now being constructed for Commercial
Purposes, and also as a Watering Place.
The Preston and Wyre Railway, which will open in July
next, will complete a continuous Line of Ravay from Man-
chester to the Shipping Wharf, at Fleetwo6d ; and the Har-
bour, which is now equal to any other on the Western Coast,
will, when the improvements which are now being effected
under the superintendence of Captain Denham, R.N., shall
be completed, afford a straight Channel, not two miles long,
out to open Sea. with twelve feet water at the lowest Springs.
A Custom-house, Bonded Stores of special security, and
Bonded Timber-yards, are already established. Its attrac-
tions as a Watering Place are of a superior nature : Sands
dry, hard, and clean ; good Bathing at all times of the tide ;
ample and safe Yachting, Boating, and Fishing; extensive
Coursing Grounds, and abundance of Game ; close proximity
to the Cumberland Lakes, with a command of the Cumber-
land and Lancashire Hills, and lovely scenery of the Bay.
Plans and particulars as to the terms on which the Build-
ing Ground will be disposed of, may be obtained on applica-
tion at our Office, No. 2, Tarlton-street.

The present low prices and long periods of Leases will
probably be adhered to until the opening of the Railway
shall have taken place.

PURE WATER, FOR HOUSES AND SHIPS.
THE ROYAL FILTERS,

Sole Office, 163, STRAND, LONDON, opposite the New
Church.

TO purify foul Water like that supplied to the inhabitants
of the principal Cities and Towns in Englan., replete
with every species of offal and myriads of animalc H, and to
convert it forthwith into an enlivening wholeso and chrys-
talline beverage like the Mountain Spring, is • eof the most
difficult problems of science which thousa sin every age
and country have attempted in vain, havi • produced at best
a vapid sickening beverage, till the ,'y electro-chymical
invention of ROBINS'S ROYAL ILTERS appeared.
This has justly been characterised by one of the highest
practical authorities, as " THE ONLY EFFECTUAL AND
WHOLESOME MODE OF FILTRATION ;" as a proof of the
fidelity of this remark, it will be sufficient to observe, that
during the prevalence of the fatal fever that has lately per-
vaded the Metropolis, not a public establishment or private
residence in which the Royal Filters had been adopted was
visited by the scourge : the advantages of the discovery has
already raised up a host of humble imitators, but it will be
found that all other apparatus are imperfect inaction, subject
to constant disarrangement, and in many cases render the
use of the water dangerous to health. It is only necessary
to add, that the Royal Filters are protected by Her Majesty's
Letters Patent ? that they have been adopted in all the Royal
Residences, the various branches of the Public Service, Her
Majesty's Navy, and the Mansions and Residences of more
than 180,000 families throughout the Kingdom. To render
the Invention of general benefit, it has been proposed to the
Patentee by the most influential Members of the College of
Physicians to reduce the prices in order to tender them avail-
able to all branches of the Community, and accordingly the
following scale is submitted to public attention. . .

The Patentee of Robins's Royal Filters having discovered
that various persons have manufactured and vended certain
machines denominated Filters, professing to clear and purify
water, placing on the same, " By Her Majesty's Letters
Patent," " Patent Royal Filter," or other words to a similar
effect, hereby announces his intention of suing without fur-
ther notice for the full penalties agreeable to the late Act of
Parliament against all parties so offending, either as Makers
or Vendors, to which he requests the attention of Country
Agents, who may otherwise suffer by vending the piratical
imitations of certain unprincipled and ignorant adventurers ;
and the Patentee earnestly cautions purchasers not to con-
found the Royal Filter with any other apparatus, and in order
to guard against all piracies, to remark that the words
Royal Filter, ROBINS, Patentee, London,
are placed on each, that they can be obtained of his Agents
in all Towns throughout the Kingdom, at the Office, 163,
Strand, London, near Somerset House, and at Mr. A. B.
BUXTON'S, 4 and 8, Cleveland-square, Liverpool, where
the Testimonials of all the most eminent authorities in the
world of science and medicine may be obtained gratis.
