ANTILLIAM JOHNSON, in tendering his sincere
thanks to his Friends, the Nobility, Gentry, and Public
of the Vicinity, for the flattering patronage he has received
since he opened the above Premises, begs respectfully to inti-
mate to them that he purposes to greatly--
ENLARGE HIS PRESENT'ESTABLISHMENT,

with some of the
FIRST DAIRIES IN THE SOUTH OF SCOTLAND,
and will thus be enabled, not only in quality, but in price, to
bid defiance to competition.
W. J. trusts the experience he has gained while serving,
Wholesale, for the past ten years, the principal Dealers in Game
in St. John's Market, has given him an advantage which, aided
by the arrangements he has made for a regular supply of real
NORFOLK TURKEYS, SURREY CAPONS, SCOTCH
DUCKS, GEESE, and CHESHIRE CHICKENS, and his
determination to Sell at the
SMALLEST REMUNERATING PROFIT,
will insure to the Public a really good Article at fully 30 per
cent. below ordinary charges, and gain for him that reward
enterprize should merit.
As W. J. keeps none but the very best Articles, it is useless
to dilate on their excellence ; suffice it to say, that each is WAR-
RANTED, and dressed ready for the cuisine—boned or larded at
the will of the Purchaser, in the most modern Metropolitan
styles.

INSTANTANEOUS AND EFFECTUAL CURE
FOR CORNS, BUNIONS, CALOSITIES, NAILS
GROWING INTO THE FLESH, AND EVERY
DISORDER OF THE FEET, WITHOUT CUT-
TING OR CAUSING THE SLIGHTEST PAIN.
CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.—As Mr. Levi has been in-
formed bg several of his Patients that a person has been
calling on several houses in Liverpool, and representing
himself to some as Mr. Levi, and to others that he was sent
by him, Mr. Levi thinks it but justice to the public, to
acquaint them thal he has no connection with any such pre-
tenifers, nor does he attend out gthis residence (except by
particular desire), neither will-he be responsible for any
accident that is likely to ocptir by employing such empirics.
Mr. L. begs particularlueit direct the attention of those who
with may be troubled with . rns, Bunions, 6w., 6w., to a para-
graph which appear in the " LONDON MORNING POST,"
of November the 3 th, where will be seen the dangerous re-
sults that may oa(ur from unskilful treatment.
MONSIEWt LEVI, CHIROPODIST, from Paris, and
No. 3, ONDUIT-STREET, REGENT-STREET, LONDON,
has the honour to announce to the Nobility, Gentry, and Inha-
bitants of Liverpool and its Environs his FOURTH ANNUAL
PROFESSIONAL VISIT to this town; and, owing to his
numerous engagements in London and Paris, his present stay
will be necessarily short ; an immediate application will there-
fore be desirable.
Mons. L. takes the present opportunity to return his grateful
thanks for the extensive patronage and kindness he experienced
during his former visits, and considers it his duty to state that
various arrangements at his establishments in London and
Paris will preclude the possibility of his revisiting this town
for a very long period, so that those who may require his pro-
fessional services should not lose the present favourable oppor-
tunity.
Monsieur Levi may be CONSULTED DAILY, for a short
time only, from the hours of Ten till Four o'clock, at his Resi-
dence,

No. 34, BOLD-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
Mons. L. (who has no professional connexion with any Person
whatever) begs to submit the following Testimonials :
COPIES OF TESTIMONIALS.

I have much pleasure in'certifying that Mi. Levi extracted
several corns out of my feet eighteen months since, and upon a
thorough examination, I find there is not the least sign of any
others having taken their places, and I have been perfectly free
from pain in consequence.
MERVYN RICHARDSON, Rock Ferry, near Liverpool.
January 26, 1848.

From James Plumpton, Esq.

I certify that Mons. Levi removed a'veri troublesome corn
from my foot two years ago, which has not returned. I had
also extracted this day, a soft corn between the toes, with equal
skill and without the least pain.
JAMES PLUMPTON, Low-hill House, Liverpool.
January 22, 1848.

From the Rev. J. Fearon,

With confidence and great pleasure I certify that Mr. Levi
extracted several Corns of long standing from my feet, with
great skill and no pain, in the month of May, 1846 and they
have not returned; therefore, I recommend all m 1 friends to

apply to him.
Bootle, negr Liverpool, December 21,1847,

From R. Steele, Egq

J. PEARON

, .
Mr. Levi has this day operated upon a corn under my great
toe-nail with the greatest skill, and in a short period of time.
The corn has been under my nail a long time, which caused it
to grow into the flesh, and thereby. inflammation was incurred ;
but I am happy to state Mr. Levi has cured my toe entirely,
and I can walk now with the greatest ease. I can, therefore,
recommend my friends who are suffering from the same cause
to pay a visit to Mr. Levi. R. STEELE.
