beautifying and nourishing the Hair, at the same time impart-

ingredients. It not only strengthens the Hair, but promotes
the growth, keeping it in strong'eurl in the warmest or dainpes
weather. A single trial will prove the fact.—Boarding-schools

TIIE NEW PATENT PIN, WITH AN IMMOVABLE
SOLID HEAD.

vii(
F. TAYLER and Co„ after 'several years' attentive
D• application, and the expendi re of an immense capital,
have now hrou.ght to perfecti is novel, long-desired, and
beautiful PlN,.and have the s sfaction to introduce it, pro-
tected by his Majesty's Royal etters Patent, and under the
exalted patronage, and privileged by exclusive warrants, ap-
pointing them "Solid Headed Pin Manufacturers" to her must
gracious Majesty Queen Adelaide, their Royal Highnesses the
Duchess of Kent, the Princess Victoria, and all the royal
Princesses. The most prominent improvements in this novo
manufacture consist in the whole Pin being formed of one pieco
of wire, the head not being put on, but compressed into a neat
round form, out of a' part of the sold brass, of which the re-
mainder of the Pin is made, whereby its slipping is completely
prevented, and, by their mode of preparing the metal, the Pins
are unusually stilt' and elastic, and a finely tapered point is
preserved, their advantages combined with their discovery of
a permanent silver brilliancy of colour, have brought his
useful article to the utmost perfection of which it is capable.
Yet, notwithstanding its acknowledged superiority, and the
enormous expense incurred, it may be purchased of all the
respectable Haberdashers in England, Scotland, 'lreland, and
France, at the price of Pins in ordinary use.

Specimens of all the above Waterproof Cloths have been
submitted to the severest ordeal for two years by putting them
aside in a wet state, and keeping them closely confined in a box,
wetting them every six months ; yet they have been found at
the end of that time capable of containing. boiling water, and to
be perfectly free from mildew, and all dispositions to heat, and
without the least mark of deterioration.
The two first of the following experiments were made on the
12th January, 1832, upon No. 1 Sail-cloth, manufactured from
the best Rion Flax, against No. 1 Sail-cloth manufactured
from the Parimum Tenax. The third experiment was made on
a specimen of Preserved Sail-cloth, manufactured from a per-
ennial plant growing in great luxuriance in Ireland.

feet in length, with a knot in the middle and manufactured from
the plant before alluded to as growing in Ireland, but made in a
particular loom, bore, carried-, and broke, but not at the knot,
with a weight of eight hundred and thirtygOur pounds, bring
strongest cloth ever made.
PHORIMUM TENAX, or New Zealand Flax, when satura-
ted with the peculiar compound recently discovered—bailing
heat, 212 degrees, will not affect it. Frosty weather dues nut
injure it.
The superior qualities of this now manufacture have been estab,
lished by a severe trial of two years and a half to the satisfac-
tion of some of the most scientific Judges in this kingdom, who
have given their written testimony to that effect; and the Public
are respectfully informed that an extensive water-side premises,
near London, have been already engaged for the purpose of
commencing immediate operations, and that the operative de-
partment will always be conducted under the superintendance
of competent petsons.

,-VRANCIS DOGGETT, CA, VINE-PLACE, LORD-STIIF.ET,
Xi sole AGENT in Liverpool for BETTS'S PATENT
FRENCH DISTILLED BRANDY, returns thanks to the
Public for their very liberal support of the above incomparable
Spirit, which has been certified by the most eminent chemists
to be as pure and wholesome as the best varieties of Foreign
Itranny, and continues to be recommended by the Medical
'profession in most parts of the kingdom. F. D. also promises
to supply every Article in the Wine and Spirit trade, whole-
sale and retail, free front adulteration and on the very
lowest terms at which genuine commodities can be afforded.
F. .D. lays a disappointed and angry assailant before the
Public in his own words, extracted from his letter to J. 'l'.
Betts and Co., February 11th, 183.3. The whole of it and
others dated December Bth and 21th, 1832, and January sth,
1833, may be perused by those who incline, at the above
address. James Norval's anxiety to sell, as Agent, Sub-agent,
or Traveller, the Brandy he now abuses, must be evident to
of
the reader. The merit and success that Vhich he subse-
quently espoused—on his services being dee ed by J. T. Betts
.and Co.—have been gravely and, doubtles' , truly represented
.in open Court by his Empaiyers. as app rs in the report of
a trial Desanges v. Desvignes. 1-'. D. h• . bestowed no intem-
perance or spleen on J. Norval, but s coolly opposed to
J. N.'s misstatements facts furnished y F. D.'s assailants.
if. N.'s attempt at a hit in the concluding paragraph of his ad-
vertisement is a most ludicrous and discreditable failure.

EXTRACTS FROM JAMES NORVAL'S LETTER TO J. T. BETTS AND CO.
" February 1 1 th, 1833.

" I was sorry to learn by your letter that in the mean time
You declined the offer as agent, convinced as I am that it
would ultimately have led to your advantage. In the first
place, from my very extensive knowledge of the trade,-and the
pecuniary resources of each of its members, I am certain that a
bad debt could hardly have happened ; and,,in the second place,
from my intimacy with the dealers, I could have persuaded
many of them to buy your spirit who otherwise would have
never thought of it; and, in the third plaOe, from the connec-
tions I have formed in. every town and village around Liver-
pool, the quantity I could have sold would be very great."
" I would propose that you would appoint another agent to
meet the orders from the country, who would occasionally
travel to forward its sale; and I am certain that if I were ap•
pointed I could do an immense business in this way, not only
n this immediate vicinity, but in the more populous parts of
Ireland, where I have' connections formed, as also in Scotland,
for every town of which I have persons in the trade who pur-
chase from me.
" I have to request your answer to this proposal, and hope
that it will be favourable to my wishes."

The following extract may serve as a full answer to James
Noreal's boasted- preference given to E. H. Desvignes's Brandy,
and should HE ever require a "placard" or "long WINDED
lIDVEYTISEMUNT." the following is recommended as particu-
larly adapted to the purpose; and should his real opinion of J. T.
BETTS and Co.'s BRANDI' be desired, the curious may be grati-
fied by perusing his repeated applications to become their Agent,
Sub-agent, or Traveller. His amusing Letters on the subject
lay at the (Alice,

From the Times of Friday, 21st June, 1833.
,COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, TuultsDAY, JUNE 20.
(Before a common jury.)
DESANGLS r. DEsviGriEs. _ _

This was an action fora Breach of Contract, and also for
work and labour.
Mr. Serieant Wilde conducted the Plaintiff's case; Mr.
Serjeant addy, Mr. Robinsou, and Mr. Martin were counsel
for the Defendant.
It appeared that a Monsieur Deeprk having set up a Brandy
Distillery in the neighbourhood of Golden-square, which he
carried on in partnership with the defendant, the plaintiff, who
had previously been a diamond merchant, in consideration of
a promise from Mr. Desvignes to obtain a share in the busi-
ness, took an active part for one or two months in furthering
the interests of the concern, and negotiated with a Mr. Love-
day for the purchase of certain premises, in which the business
has ever since been carried on. No specific contract, however,
was made with him as to the share he was to have in the con-
cern; but the defendant subsequently promised to compensate
him for his services. Evidence was adduced on the part of the
defendant, to show dot the speculation had turned out an un-
profitable one, notwithstanding a change of experiment had been
tried, first fronsvdistillotion from rums to distillation from potatoes,
and aperceards to distillation from whiskey; and that, therefore,
the plaintiff had lost nothing by not having had a share in it,
even it' he had contracted for one, which it was contended he
bad not.
The Lord Chief Justice was of opinion that there was not
sufficient evidence to support the ciaints on a special contract
for a share in the business; but that the plaintiff was entitled
to recover, on the common count for work and labour, some
remuneration for the services he had rendered to the defendant.
The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damage £:00.

SPLENDID WINTER FASHIONS,
No. 15, CHURCH-STREET.
ILSON and EYTON have the pleasure to acquaint the
no
W Public that they have completed heir Stock for the
ensuing Season, which consists of every no lty of style, variety
of pattern, and shade of colour, in ' o s DE N APLES,

FIGURE SHAWLS, FRENCH MERINOS, c.; also, an immense

HABERDASHERY, &C. &C.
W. and E. beg to remind their Friends that the above is
entirely a NEW STOCK, not a single article of it being last
year's, and purchased under the most advantageous circum-
stances. This fact must give them a decided advantage over
every house in the trade, and they fearlessly assert that no
other Establishment can equal them either in cheapness or
splendour of fashion.
W. and E. cannot allow this opportunity to pass without re-
turning their thanks to their Friends for the very liberal support
they have received since they opened, and to assure them that
every attention shall he paid to the quality of the Goods
selected; that such shall be Sold by them ONLY as can be well
recommended for, durability, which alone can sustain the high
character they have earned for selling nothing but the very
best articles.
