IMPORTANT TO THE PUBLIC.
THE BEST MEDICINE IN THE WORLD.
PARR'S LIFE PILLS.
A mild, safe, and most effectual cure of Indigestion,
Bilious, Liver, and Stomach Complaints, Sick Head-ache, Cos-
tiveness, &c. &c. Their composition is truly excellent ; they
are compounded entirely of vegetable products, freed from all
irritating and deleterious matters, which render their opera-
tion mild and agreeable: they do not require the least confine-
ment or alteration of diet, and may be taken by the invalid
with perfect safety; as an occasional dose in all nervous and
debilitated cases, recoveries from protracted diseases, &c.,
they will be found highly imparting
. valuable, vigour and tone
to the system when emaciated by disease.
First—They increase the strength, whilst most other medi-
cines have a weakening effect upon the system. Let any one

take from three to four or six pills every twenty-four hours,
and, instead of having. weakened, they will be found to have
revived the animal spirits, and to have imparted a lasting
strength to the body.
Secondly—ln their operation they go direct to the disease.
After you have taken six or twelve pills you will experience
their effect ; the disease upon you will become less and less by
every dose you take; and if you will persevere in regularly
taking from three to six pills every day, your disease will
speedily be entirely removed from the system.
Thirdly—They are Winn, after giving them a fair trial for a
few weeks, to possess the most astonishing and invigorating
properties, and they will overcome all obstinate complaints,
and restore sound health; there is a return of good appetite
shortly from the beginning of their use ; whilst their mildness
as a purgative is a beginning
greatly required by the weak
and delicate, particularly where violent purging is acknow-
ledged to be injurious instead of beneficial.
TO PERSONS GOING ABROAD.

These Pills are particularly recommended to all persons
going abroad, and subjecting themselves to great change of
climate. OFFICERS OF THE ARMY AND NAVY, MISSIONA-
RIES, EMIGRANTS, &C., will find them an invaluable appen-
dage to their medicine chests, as a preventive of the attacks of
those diseases so prevalent in our Colonies, especially in the
West Indies, where a small box recently sold for 10s. In Ame-
rica also the fame is getting known, and its
it
duly appre-
ciated, causing an immense demand for t ; and there is no
country or port in the world where it will not speedily become
an article of extensive traffic and general utility, as it may be
bad recourse to in all cases of sickness, with confidence in its
simplicity, and in its power to produce relief
TO LADI—"

PARR'S LIiR PILLS are especially efficacious in all the va-
riety of ailments incident to the Fair Sex. Ladies even of the
most delicate constitutions will find them particularly benefi-
cial, both before and after confinement; and for general use in
schools, they cannot be too strongly recommended. They
mildly and speedily remove all Skin Eruptions, Sallowness of
Complexion, Nervous Irritability, Sick Head-ache and Depres-
sion of Spirits, Irregularity, or general derangement of the
system.

—or thirty years we have been oppressed with

false, puny, mutable, unprincipled standard of value
tandard is a fixity. Sir Robert Peel_ has made it a pren

toted mutability ;"his

)nourable Conimon

the 3d December last, "that he had restored to the nation our
ancient standard of value," I declare to be false, unfounded,

and not fact. It is his false standard that has been perpetually
changing its value for thirty years, that has ruined the value of
your property and of labour. I challenge him to confute me.
1 have written him twenty letters, on his various currency er-
rors, which shall be (D. V.) published shortly, And, I respect-
fully adjure every member who was present to redeem his oath
and honour for permitting such a gross assertion to pass un-
contradicted, for this error has cost the nation for thirty years
about £21,000,000 yearly in foreign exchanges, and has de-
privet! England's products of about 12 per cent. protection,
violating the national pledge and faith of 1797. If any honour-
able member wishes for proofs of these facts, I shall be happy
to send them to him. This error is the nucleus of our distress.
Call upon Sir Robert Peel to prove his assertion, and make
him responsible for the consequences, and our Chancellor of
the Exchequer should be called to the bar of the Commons for
wasting the national wealth.—l am, Englishmen, respectfully
