A PATIENT IN A DYING STATE, CURED OF A DIS-
ORDER IN THE CHEST.
Extract of a Letter from Mr. Robert Calvert, Chemist, Stokes-

Sia,—Mr. Thom rs,son, Nations 'Schoolmaster of this Town
desires me to send you the par ulars respecting a Son of his,
who had been seriously ill fo hree years and a half, and who
has derived the greatest be t from the use of your medicines,
after trying all ordinan sources without effect. The Boy is
eight years of age, of st mous or scrofulous constitution. He
seems to have had a urizy which ended in a large collection
of matter in the est, which eventually formed a passage
through the wale f the Chest, which ended in three fistulous
sores, which co limed to discharge large quantities of pus up
to May, whe was induced to try your medicines; at this
date he was in an apparent dying condition, and in the highest
degree of Marasmus or Consumption. He had severe hectic
fever, the urine depositing large quantities of sediment—con-
stant'distressing cough—no appetite—and the Stomach reject-
ing nearly every thing he took, both food and medicine, he be-
gan by taking five of your Pills night and morning, which were
gradually increased to ten, which in a short time had the effect
of completely curing the' Cough, the Stomach affections, and
restoring the urine to its natural state. His strength and flesh
are also restored, and his appetite keen and digestion good.

that your pills have effected a cure of a disorder in my Liver

CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 4.
The wind being again favourable for arrivals, we have to note
a fair accession of supply from Ireland, while that coastwise
and from abroad is, in the aggregate, unimportant during the
past three days.
. . . . _

Though some improvement, in point of steadiness, at length
obtains in many of the markets of the country, and the delive-
ries from the growers are of that moderate extent as to argue
the probability of a check for the present to the continuance of
declining prices, there still appears not only an absence of all
disposition to speculate investments, but also a cautious disin-
clination, on the part of millers and dealers, to increase stocks
much beyond their temporary requirements ; we are therefore
unable to report any increase of activity in our trade during
the interval from Tuesday last, but at the same time little or
no variation in prices generally.
There was a tolerably good attendance at this day's market,
and some inquiry for Wheats of good fresh quality, but the de-
mand being pretty much confined to local buyers, the transac-
tions were of limited amount at a small concession upon old.
and fully 2d. per 70Ib. on new, from Tuesday's rates.—A slow
sale was also experienced for most other articles of the trade ;
Malt and Beans at a reduction of Is. per quarter; Flour 6d. per
barrel, and Is. per sack ! Indian Corn Is. to 2s. per quarter.—
Oats were pressed, with little effect, at a decline of hi. per
bushel, but Oatmeal, at a proportionate abatement, met a mo-
derate sale.

crops made In 1832 were-2'3;1,28-11 ms. or sugar ana

and 833 puncheons of rum, showing a decrease of 8,569

5. That upon certain estates shown to have had at-

year 1832, 41,820 labourers, there now remain resident on

6. That the sum of £1,405.887 14s. 11d. was expended
in the cultivation and manufacture of 57,005 hhds. of
sugar and 26,711 puncheons of rum,
.giving the result
that, after deducting proceeds of the rum, averaged at
£l4 per puncheon, the actual cost of sugar averaged
£1 2s. 7d. per cwt. ; consequently, that as its value is
now by slave competition reduced in the British market to
about lls. exclusive of charges, it is self-evident sugar
cultivation cannot be continued : that there is an actual
loss on every cwt. of 7s. 7d., without taking into account
interest on capital and on money expended, equal at the
least to 4s. 6d. more per cwt. ; while as regards coffee the
evidence is conclusive that it is, if possible, even in a worse
condition.

RAILWAY AFFAIRS.

PILBROW'S ATMOSPHERIC RAILWAY.-Mr. Pilbrow
has obtained a decision in his favour against his directors
for no less than £15,000.
The Report, recommending a dividend of 6s. per share
(less income-tax), was adopted at the half-yearly meet-
ing of the Whitehaven Junction. The works on the line
are in excellent order.

Mr. Alderman Bancroft, of Manchester, has been ap-
pointed chairman of the Birkenhead Railway Company.
Mr. W. Laird has been appointed vice-chairman and
managing director; and Mr. John Gibson has been ap-
pointed secretary, in the place of Captain Charlewood.
The report and accounts were passed at the half-yearly
meeting of the East Lancashire. The net profit, according
to the report, from the working of the lines now in opera-
tion is fixed at four per cent. on the total cost. The whole
undertaking will probably be completed in the course of
the present year. The calls had generally been well met.
At the half-yearly meeting of the Edinburgh, Leith and
Granton the directors' Report announced that the certi-
ficate of amalgamation with the Edinburgh and Northern
had not been received from the Commissioners, but all
the •other arrangements had been concluded. The in-
crease of the passenger traffic appears to be promising.
The Report and accounts were adopted, and a dividend
of 4s. per share was declared, at the half-yearly meeting
of the Cockermouth and Workington. The improve-
ments at Workington Harbour are progressing, and when
completed are expected to lead to a great increase in the
lime traffic.

TRIAL OF AN IRON TUBE.—The first of the eight great
iron tubes required for carrying the Chester and Holy-
head Railway over the Menai Strait was tested on Satur-
day, at Chester, in the presence of Mr. Stephenson, the
projector, and a large ',umber of engineers. All support
having being removed, the tube had a clear span of 400
feet. each end resting on a stone pier. The experiment
was then made by running locomotives and heavily-laden
ballast-waggons through ; one train of twenty-eight wag-
gons, filled with iron, weighing upwards of 300 tons.
The deflection of the tube was not more than a few inches.

THIS invaluable Medicine immediately relieves
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Difficulty of Breathing, and
Huskiness in the Throat.

These Drops are also the best preventative that can be taken
against SPITTING OF BLOOD, and AFFECTION Of the LUNGS.
Persons troubled with ASTHMA are considerably relieved by
taking a few doses of the Drops, as they tend to promote
expectoration and remove viscid phlegm. For the speedy cure
of the HOOFING COUGH, they are no less efficacious. Those
who are troubled with that unpleasant tickling in the Throat,
which deprives them of rest night after night, by the incessant
Cone' which it provokes, will, by taking one dose, find im-
mediate relief ; and one bottle, in most cases, will effect a
cure.

CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 4.
The wind being again favourable for arrivals, we have to note
a fair accession of supply from Ireland, while that coastwise
and from abroad is, in the aggregate, unimportant during the
past three days.
Though some improvement, in point of steadiness, at length
obtains in many of the markets of the country, and the delive-
ries from the growers are of that moderate extent as to argue
the probability of a check for the present to the continuance of
declining prices, there still appears not only an absence of all
disposition to speculate investments, but also a cautious disin-
clination, on the part of millers and dealers, to increase stocks
much beyond their temporary requirements ; we are therefore
unable to report any increase of activity in our trade during
the interval from Tuesday last, bit at the same time little or
no variation in prices generally.
There was a tolerably good attendance at this day's market,
and some inquiry for Wheats of good fresh quality, but the de-
mand being pretty much confined to local buyers, the transac-
tions were of limited amount at a small concession upon old.
