THE SEED TRADE

In connexion with the above Establishment, it is the in-
tention of the Proprietors to continue the SEED TRADE

ment of Rye and other GRASSES, TREFOLIUM IN-
CARNATUM, CLOVER SEED, VETCHES, &c., with
every variety for the Kitchen Garden ; and a choice collection
of all the new and most approved Annuals, Biennials,
Perennials, and other Flower Seeds.

J. and S. G. have great pleasure in stating, that the whole
of their SEED STOCK is the produce of last season, con-
sequently, unexceptionably fine in quality ; and, as this
Branch will be conducted upon the same principle as the
Tea and Grocery Department, they are confident, upon trial,
they shall in it give equal satisfaction.
N.B.—Catalogues of Seeds may be had upon the Premises,
with Practical Instructions for Sowing, Propagating, &c.

MILK PUNCH ROYAL !

MANUFACTURER OF MILK PUNCH TO HER

MAJESTY,

_ .
THIS unique and nectarious Liqueur has, for nearly a
century] been duly appreciated at _

CHIeHESTER: AND THE METROPOLIS.
It was at the former place where the original projector of this
delectable beverage had his abode ; no doubt the corporation
of that ancient borough evinced their good taste, and marked
their approbation of this
GREAT DISCOVERY,
by presenting to him the freedom of the town ; but with that
the present generation have nothing to do ; suffice it to say,
that this ELIXIR

is now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the
bon vivants of the northern parts of this great Kingdom for
their judgment.
It would be quite in vain to enter into any detail of its
excellencies, yet, thus far may be vouched, that it is composed
of the best materials, without any adulteration, and, in
flavour, possesses the combined sweetness of the Grape, the
fragrance of the Lime, with the exhiliration of Champagne ;
and while

THE LORDS OF THE CREATION
will find it an excellent addenda to the Dinner Table,
THE GENTLER SEX
may not disdain to sip, the more so as
ROYALTY
has acknowledged its transcendant merit.
It has been intimated that it will prevent
SEA SICKNESS,
but of that we will not vouch, never having crossed the
" briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro-
prietors of

PACKET-SHIPS AND STEAMERS
take the hint ? And although it may not produce that " con-
summation
devoutly to be 'wished," yet, sure we are, its
grateful properties are such as will be found to be an excellent
restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer
from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate,
and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence,
improves by age.

LE GRAND GOURMAND
will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and
Calepee, and the temperate man, while he masticates his
biscuit over a glass of it, will be constrained to eulogise this
incomparable Liqueur.
Come and try,
Don't like—don't buy,"
is an old saying and a good one ; and as in matters of taste
every man is the best judge, this invitation is given in the full
assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the
palate, it will quickl things knowledged to stand A 1 amongst
the list of those goodwhich cheer the heart of mankind.
Sold, at 245. per dozen in pint bottles, and 425. per dozen

/THE LONDON REVIEW, a Monthly Digest of Lite-
rature, Science, and Public Affairs.—ln offering a new
Periodical to the Public, the Editors of the London Review
lime reason to believe that their Monthly Journal will be
found to fill a vacuum in Literature that has been often ac-
knowledged. The stream of publication is n9w so rapid that
few readers can afford either the time or the expense necessary
for the perusal of works which yet contaip much that is va-
luable, and sometimes essential to be known. The vast dis-
coveries in Science now constantly in progress ; the devel-
opment of new forms and elements in our social existence;
the application of established principles in new directions;
the naratives of the traveller; the researches of the histo-
rian ; the lighter but not unimportant volumes of the novel-
ist ; all these compose a mass of literary novelty containing
information of the highest interest, yet whose very bulk rust
dehar the greater number of readers from its acquisition.
The great object of the London Review will thus consist
in giving every month a reflection, faithful, and, if possible,
full, of all the useful and interesting features contained in
the publications of the period ; affording to every work and
every subject the attention demanded by their importance,
and endeavouring always to fill its pages with the materials
best calculated to interest and instruct.
The criticisms of the Review will be condensed as far as is
consistent with the full elucidation of the subject under dis-
cussion. And no diffuse comment written merely for dis-
play will be allowed to encroach upon its space to the exclu-
sion of more useful matter.

Each Number will consist of nearly 100 pages, printed in
a handsome octavo form, and published at the price of One
Shilling.

MESSRS. PICKFORD AND CO

AND
THE GRAND JUNCTION RAILWAY

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD

SIR,
IF we do not now answer in detail the long letter of Captain
Huish. (of the 17th instant,) published last week, in be-
half of the Grand Junction Company, it is only because it is
irksome to repeat an already oft told tale, which we cannot
expect your readers would have sufficient interest in the
matter to attend to.

It has been decided that the Grand Junction Company
should not favour Messrs. Chaplin and Horne, or any one
else, more than 'ourselves ; that they are bound to deal

They have drawn out a tedious correspondence, from last
July, the date of the judgment, till now ; and they propose
to allow us, not the same sum which they pay Messrs.
Chaplin and Horne, but 40 per cent. less.
It has been decided that, if they have a right to receive
anything at all above their ordinary rates for Hampers of
small Parcels which they do not collect and deliver, or have
any more trouble or risk with than ordinary goods, " such
compensation, at all events, should be trifling."
They estimate this " trifling compensation" at just 100
per cent., and refuse to accept less.
' They publish two letters, last of a series of more than
twenty, without reference to what has preceded them ; and
they ground upon this detached bit of a correspondence,
which, collectively, shows to a remarkable degree how hap-
pily a question may be argued in a circle, an attack both
upon our notices and our fair dealing.
After writing and corresponding six months, when every
day was important, it is not surprising that we were impa-
tient, and eight days is surely long enough to wait for an
answer which might have arrived in two.
Some one must undertake the Carriers' duties, and the
responsibilities connected therewith. The Public have a
right to choose whether they will employ the Company in
this behalf, or a private Carrier; and the Company mani-
festly violate the law when they infringe this right, by in-
sisting upon being paid not only as Toll Owners, but as
Carriers, for all Goods sent over their Line, whether they
have discharged a Carriers' duties in respect of them
oorrd s" not.
t
The tone of Captain Pluish's letter, and the hard
applies to our late Circulars, it is scarcely worth w
whthwil,ewteo
notice. Unless the Company are too strong for the
shall gain our point at last.

We are, Sir.
