TIR. DE ROOS' COMPOUND RENAL PILLS.-
"' It is not generally known that the above, and almost
every other affection of the system, are more or less dependent
on impurity of the blood, arising from imprudence or other-
wise. These Pills consist of a combination of medicines, which
act -more particularly upon the stothach, blood•vessels, and
kidneys, as their name Renal the kidneys) indicates, and
through them establish the r tar action of the organs, thus
striking at once at the ro f the complaint, and purifying the
system. It is a well- wn fact that diseases of the skin, &e ,
may be temporaril ieved, and apparently cured, by outward
and violent ap ations, &c., but the virus remains in the
system, to br our again in a more dreadful form at another
time. An ex ensive practice in the above diseases warrants the
Proprietor in asserting that in no case where this Medicine is
perseveringly taken can it possibly fail, being compounded on
scientific and infallible principles, the result of immense prac-
ticable experience.
"The Lady of a Liverpool merchant, after being under the
care of one of the first physicians in that town for many months
with pains in the back and elsewhere, but to no purpose, was
induced to try a small box of De Roos' Compound Renal Pills,
from which she derived more benefit than from all the medi-
cines ever prescribed for her by her medical attendant. The
truth of the above will be verified by Mr. JONES, 5, Paradise-
street, Liverpool, to whom the lady's Physician candidly made
the avowal."
John Andrews, Abersychan, Pontypool.—" After taking a
box of your Pills, I am so much better that I am induced to
send for another."
Mr. Milton Welch, Furness.—" Your Renal Pills are the
only medicine I have met with that have been of service."
Mr. T. Bloem, Limekiln-street, Dover.—" Please to send a
.few more of your wonderful Pills. My wife feels great relief
already."

-iiii.-:"'"weatmacott, 4, Market-street, Manchester.—"Your
medicines are very highly
them of me." spoken of by all who have purchased

Mr. smith, Times Office, Leeds.—" One person informs me
that-your Renal Pills are worth a guinea a box."
2, Buckingham Place, Brighton.—" Major Micklethwait
thinks it but justice to Dr. De Rosa and his invaluable Medi-
cine, to inform him that he had suffered very much from pains
in the back and loins, which induced him to try the Renal
Pills, after which he finds himself quite free from pain, &c."
N.B. Persons wishing to consult the doctor by letter must
send a detail of the symptoms, &C., with the usual fee of
by post-office order, payable at the Holborn Office, for which
the necessary medicines and advice will be sent to any part of
the world.

Address WALTER Ds Roos, M.D., 35,
Ely Plateiell
Hill, London, where he may be consulted from 10 and 4
till 8, Sunday excepted, unless by previous arrangement.
May be obtained at Is. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. yid. its., and 33a.,
per box, through all Medicine Vendors in the three, Kingdoms,
or should any difficulty occur, they will be sent free on receipt
of the price in postage stamps by DR. Ds Roos.
CAUTION.—A self-styled ten shilling Doctor (unblushing
impudence being his only qualification) is now advertising un-
der.a different name, a highly injurious imitation of these Pills,
and a useless abbreviated copy of Dr. De Roos' celebrated
Medical Adviser, slightly changing its title: sufferers will
therefore do well to see that the stamp round each box is a
bona fide government stamp, not a base counterpart, and to
guard against the truthless statements of this individual, which
are published only for the basest purposes of deception on
invalids and fraud on the proprietor.
TO PREVENT FRAUD on the public by imitations of the
above valuable medicine, her Majesty's Honourable Commis-
sioners of Stamps have directed the name of the proprietor, in
white letters on a red ground, to be engraved on the govern-
ment starpp round eacu box, without which none are genuine,
and to imitate which too closely is felony and transportation.
N.B.—Should difficulty occur in obtaining the above, enclose
the price in postage stamps to the Establishment.
Sold by Mr. JONES, 5, PARADISE-STREET, !AM:111'001., and

CALVIN TRANSLATION SOCIETY.
THIS SOCIETY was Instituted in 1843, and is
under the Patronage, among others, of the Duke of
MANCHESTER, the Duke of ARGYLL, the Earl of SBA!, ils-
BURY, and the Lord Bishop of CALCUTTA. Its object is to
Publish in English the Works of " the venerable CALVIN."
Most of his Writings are Commentaries on Scripture, which
have ever been regarded by the ablest Divines, and even by
many opposed to his peculiar views (such as the profoundly
learned Bishop Horsley), as possessing merits of no ordinary
kind. Thirty-four Volumes, octavo, averaging 500 pages each,
have been already published. The subscription is One Pound,
paid in advance at the beginning of the Year. For which Four
Volumes are returned.
New Subscribers may have the Work from the beginning, at
the original price, and will be alloyed to take one or nine
years' Books at a time. Separate Vol - may be had at 7s.
Gd. each, except " The Institutes," r which les. are charged.
Money may be remitted, by Ba leones or Post-office Orders,
to the Secretary, ROBERT P AIRN, ESQ., F.S A., 9, Northum-
berland•street, Edinbur .
Subscribers are re sted to be early and punctual in their
remittances, and so to make the Society known to their
friends.

It is hvgirrrat those who value Biblical Learning wj.ll feel it
their duty to use their influence, so as to enable the Conductors
fully to complete these invaluable Commentaries, which of
themselves will form a Library, and one more valuable, accord-
ing to the expressed opinion even of the learned Arminius,
than all the Works of the Fathers. It is expected that the
Work will he completed in about five years.

INFANT ORPHAN ASYLUM, WANSTEAD,

OPEN TO BEREAVED CHILDREN FROM ALL PARTS

OF THE KINGDOM.
SPECIAL NOTICE,

PUBLIC attention is earnestly solicited to the
important arrangements recently adopted by this Charity,
with a view to the extension of the term during which the
Infants are maintained, until they reach the age of FOURTEEN
or FIFTEEN years.

Of the Eighty Children received this year, 1851, Twenty mill
be retained t' the age above specified, and it is proposed that,
as soon as the necessary funds are provided, the whole of the
Children thenceforth admitted shall remain, the Boys until
fourteen, and the Girls until fifteen years of age.
Many of these bereaved little ones are received from the very
cradle, and when it is considered that they must be maintained
and educated through a long term of years, until qualified to
pursue for th"mselves some path of industry in such station as
the providence of God may assign them, the Committee feel
assured that they may confidently appeal to a Christian public
for that liberal support which is essential to the accomplish-
ment of so important an undertaking.

The Asylnni (which now maintains Three Hundred and
Eighty-one Children) is designed more especiaPy for such as
are respectably descended, and many Orphans of Clergymen—
of Officers in the Army and Navy—and other highly respecta-
ble classes have found refuge withirl.it'S

and the 26th November. Forffis for nominating Candidates,
together with any furth information, may be obtained by

P.S.—The Infak Orphan Asylum receives Children of either
sex, wherever resident, who have lost both parents, or the
lather only. The father being the subject of confirmed lunacy
or paralysis, also renders a child eligible. Children are ad-
mitted from earliest infancy, if needful, but not after seven
years of age. The Asylum is delightfully situated at Wanstead,
six miles from London.
