BRILLIANCY AND ECONOMY IN LIGHT.

THE PURE VESTA SPIRIT, FOR THE VESTA
PARAGON, AND OTHER LAMPS;
MANUFACTURED BY JOHN TALL AND CO ,
6, NORTH WALLS, HULL.

ITE IIY great improvements having been effected in this
liectified Spirit, it can with confidence be recom-
mended as possessing qualities decidedly superior to any
manufactured. It combines the advantages of cleanliness
and economy, with perfect freedom from smoke or smell ;
and, whilst it imparts a most brilliant light, one lamp
being equal to at least twelve was candles, the wick does
not require to be cut more than once a week.

The following statement of the analysis of Dr. Ure
affords a complete verification of its excellent properties :
Report of an experimental examination of the Vesta
Lamp Spirits, as Manufactured by Messrs. John Tall
and Co., of Hull ; by ANDREW URE, M.D.,
F.R.S., Professor of Chemistry.
" London, 13, Charlotte-street, Bedford-square,
19th September, 1844.
" These Spirits are the lightest and purest which I have
ever met with in commerce ; having a specific gravity of
only 0.865 at 629 Fahr., whereas the Spirits of the London
shops have a specific gravity of 0.874 or more ; that of
water being 1000.

" The comparative lightness of the Spirits indicate their
fine quality. Messrs. Tall's Spirits when distilled have
no residuum, whereas the Spirits generally on Sale leave a
quantity of Rosin. In consequence of the freedom of
Messrs. Tall's Spirits from this and other impurities I
have lighted my drawing-rooms with their flame during
several hours for five evenings successively, without hav-
ing the wick of the lamp trimmed, and without its occa-
sioning the slightest nuisance.

" ANDREW URE."
The three principal Depots for Messrs. JOHN TALL
and COMPANY'S VESTA SPIRIT are

6, North Walls, Hull ;
140, Suffolk-street, Birmingham ;
103, Hatton-garden, Holborn, London.
.._ .

J. T. and Co. having observed that other Houses are
using Betts' Patent Capsule, beg to state they have made
arrangements with Mr. Betts for a Capsule bearing their
Address, (JoHN TALL and Co., HuLL,) which will be
applied to every separate Package, to insure the genuine-
ness of their Improved Vesta Spirit.

TO HEADS OF FAMILIES, &c.
FREEMAN'S SWEET ESSENCE OF SENNA.
(The most agreeable Purgative.)
Containing in a highly concentrated form all the active
principle of senna entirely deprived of its nauseating and
griping properties, and rendered so peculiarly pleasant to
the taste, that children will take it with a positive relish.
The extraordinary merit of this medicinal novelty has
obtained for it the distinguished patronage of Her Ma-
jesty—the Queen Dowager—the following Physicians to
Her Majesty and the Queen Dowager, Sir C. M. Clark.
Bart., M.D., Dr. Ferguson, and Dr. Locock—Sir David
Davies, and Dr. Holland—by many Princes, Nobles, and
Families of distinction, by most of the eminent Physicians
and Medical Men in London, who have been for several
years, and now are, in the daily habit of prescribing and
recommending it as the best and safest domestic aperient
for females and children—the aged and delicate—the
nervous—the bilious—the habitually costive, and those
suffering from piles, worms, sickness, or head ache, and
as being particularly adapted for ladies during pregnancy,
and children during dentition.
Impelled by a sense of duty, confideat of conferring a
great national benefit, the proprietor proudly submits it
to the patronage of a discerning public, assured that a
single trial will convince every one of its inestimable value
as a pleasant, safe, and efficacious domestic aperient, the
moderate price of which pkces it within the reach of every
family. Sold by all respectable Vendors of Medicine, in
Bottles at Is., 2s. 6d., 55., I2s. Gd.. and 205. each.
CAUTION—The great celebrity thipmetticiagkiscattain-
ed, having induced many druzgoitasn Scotland and Eng-
land to pu tup for sale, bameend worthless imitation, to
the serious injury of the original Preparation. Purchasers
are therefore requested to ask for Freeman's Sweet Es-
sence of Senna, each genuine bottle of which is signed
John Freeman.

CELESTIAL POLISHING POWDER
is superior to any other composition hitherto used for•
Polishing Gold, Silver, Plate Glass, German Silver, Brass,
Britannia, and all other compound metals; it is perfectly
free from all acid or mercurial preparation, and will re-
move the peculiar tinge from German Silver, and impart
a lustre and brilliancy equal to that of the purest Silver.
In cleaning Uniform and Livery Buttons, Crests, and
Mountings for Harness, &c., it will be found an infinite
improvement to any other composition ever yet used.
