EXTRACT OF THE FINEST
JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA.

This most efficient and agreeable preparation of that well-
known and valuable alterative, JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA, is
prepared by a peculiar and scientific method, by which the
whole of the aromatic and volatile parts are preserved ; and the
experience of many years has fully established the reputation of
this Medicine, as containing more of the virtues of the root
than any other preparntion. Its beneficial effects have been
particularly striking in the following complaints :—Nocturnal
Pains in the Limbs, Scrofulous Enlargement of the Glands,
Cutaneous Affections, Chronic Rheumatism' &c., &c. ; in free-
ing the system after a 'course of Mercury its beneficial effects
are very powerful. It purifies the blood, and by giving to the
cutaneous vessels a healthy and regular action, it removes that
disposition to Erysipilatous Inflammation from which so many
persons periodically suffer; and when taken in the Spring and
Fall of the Year as an Alterative Medicine, it will be found to.
impart that strength to the constitution which is indicated by
firmness of flesh, good appetite, and freshness of the com-
plexion.

The astonishing success which has crowned the application
of this external Medicine in the most hopeless and deplorable,
cases, when the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining
even the least relief, and this after the ablest advice and every
other means had completely failed, most justly entitles it to the
attention of the afflicted. . _

This excellent Medicine, so universally esteemed, is unat-
tended with the least danger or inconvenience; hundreds have
experienced its happy and salutary effects since it was first
introduced; and such are the properties of this• invaluable
Specific that persons labouring under the most distressing
Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, and Lumbago, and rendered
thereby incapable of assisting themselves, have been relieved
in a few hours.

14, Belinent-place, Wandsworth-road, Oct. 26, 1844;
Si feel in duty bound to acknowledge, that after suffer-
ing acute pains from Sciatica, or severe Rheumatic affection in
the hip-joint, and being deprived of rest, I was persuaded to
try your embrocation, and have the pleasure to say that after
three applications I was restored to my usual health ' • and, al-
though two years have passed, I have no return of thedisorder.
—I am, Sir, gratefully.yours, EDWARD NOYES.
Well-street, Cripplegate.
Sin,--I have been several weeks confined to my bed by Gout
quid Rheumatism, not a part from my head to my feet free from
pain, and as helpless as an infant: not even a finger could I
move. In this unpleasant situation I was informed by my me-
dical attendant he had applied all the usual remedies, and that
I might remain months in my deplorable situation.
Fortunately your remedy was made known to me, or I might
have been to this day confined to my bed. After a close appli-
cation of four days my troublesome companion began to dis-
appear; in a week I was capable of walking about my room,
and by another week's perseverance in the use of your Medi-
cine was enabled to leave London. Fearful of another attack,
you will please to send six bottles.—l sin, Sir, your obedient
servant.— D. W. STONE.

Morteo's Hotel, Strand, 18th August, 11346.
Si a,-11 have hitherto had a prejudice against having recourse
to advertised medicines, but as I have for years been a severe
sufferer from Lumbago, as well as Sciatica and having tried
several of the most eminent Physicians of London and Paris, I
'was induced bt, a friend to make, a trial of your liquid, called
" Seijeant's Lotion.'.' I think it in gratitude due to you to say
in less than an hour from the time I applied the Lotion, 1 felt
the most pleasant and indescribable relief. The immediate
effect was to produce a short but tranquil and most refreshin•
slumber, from which 1 awoke to enjoy that which was, from its
novelty, the greatest happiness—perfect quietude and freedom
rom pain. The.number of poor, souls that suffer as I have is
immense, and if the publication of this testimony can induce
one to accept of the salvation you offer, I shall feel that I have
not lived in vain.—With many thanks, I am yours,
HENRI VILLENNEVR.

4. Paternener-ro.r.
,‘ Si 11,—Having been informed of tne surprising cure of Mr.
Barnes, of .St. Paul's Churchyard, who was so severely afflicted
by Rheumatism, the intense pain causing delirium, that he was
compelled to be confined by a strait waistcoat to prevent his
committing any violence, and whose case was considered en-
tirely hopeless, I was induced to ascertain the particulars, and
being satisfied of the truth of my intormation, encouraged wie
to make a trial of your most invaluable Medicine, entertaining
little hopes of success, having been many years so severe a suf.
ferer, and tried many said to be very valuable remedies. lam
-very- happy iii being able to add' my testimony of the- benedr
I derived: after a few days' application the use of my limbs are
perfectly restored, and I am now able to attend my business,
and, making an allowance for my age. neYerFwas better in my
life. To those. however severely afflicted and hopeless their
case may have been pronounced, I beg of them to make a trial,
feeling quite satisfied they will be restored to the use of their
limbs, from the severe cased that have yielded to this Medicine.
Health is a great blessing to those who can enjoy it, but to
those who are deprived, none feels it so severely as the trades•
man or mechamt.,.as it generally causes loss of business, and
brings ruin on families. I shall at all times feel it my duty to
make it knows to those afflicted, to evince how grateful I am
for my restoration, and am, sir, yours truly,

DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH THE POPE
OF ROME.
T a MEETING of the PROTESTANT INHA-
BITANTS of MANCHESTER and SALFORD, opposed to
Lord Lansdowne's Bill for Establishing Diplomatic Relations
between the Queen of England and the Pope of Rome, held at
the Free Trade Hall, Manchester, on THURSDAY, the 17th
February, 1848,
JAMES WOOD, Eso. in the Chair;
It was Resolved.
I. Moved by Mr. THOMAS GREIG ;• seconded by the Rev.
Hunts STOWELL, Honorary Canon of Chester,
That this Meeting regards with great disapprobation and
alarm the Bill introduced by Her Majesty's Government into
the House of Lords, for establishing Diplomatic Relations with
the Pope of Rome. The repeal of the statutes forbidding com-
munion with the see of Rome would be a proposal of reconcilia-
tion with the implacable foe of Protestantism, and of Protestant
England. It would involve a recognition of his usurped spiri-
tual dominion, inasmuch as his temporal sovereignty is founded
upon that dominion, and is exercised solely witha view to per-
petuate and extend it; so that the rights, claims, policy, and
acts of the prince are essentially those of the prelate. It would
afford reasonable ground of apprehension that an ambassador
from Rome, whether an ecclesiastic, or a layman attended by
an ecclesiastic as his confessor and guide, would form a centre,
around which all the agencies opposed to our religious liberties
would gather; and that he would thus possess peculiar facilities
for aiding the extraordinary efforts now being made, again to
subject this country to the papal sway. And it would lead to
public acts and exhibitions which would familiarize all classes
of the people with the unjust pretensions of the papacy, under
circumstances favourable to the national acknowledgment of
them.

11. Moved by the Rev. RICHARD BUTLER, Incumbent of St.
Silas; seconded by the Rev. ROBERT Cows, Minister of
St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church,
That the objections to the measure are materially strength-
ened by the consideration that, whilst the Sovereign and people
of England would thus cultivate the friendship of the Pope,
they both lie under the heaviest curse which it is in his power
to inflict, a curse which seeks to deprive the monarch of her
crown, and to dissolve the ties which bind her subjects to her
in dutiful allegiance. Nor has any case of palitical necessity
been established sufficient to prove the expediency of the mea-
sure, even were it right and sate. No exigency can be conctv-
ed more urgent than those which have heretofore existed, dtd
which have been met by private and non-official communica-
tions, the very privacy of which has borne testimony to our
national fear and abhorrence of Popery.
HI. Moved by the Rev. GEORGE OSBORN, Wesleyan minister,
seconded by Mr. CHARLES SWALLOW,
That a Petition, founded upon the foregoing resolutions, be
prepared, and that, when signed as extensively as possible, the
Right Honourable the Earl of Roden be requested to present it
to the House of Lords ; and that a similar Petition to the House
of Commons be prepared and signed at the same time, which
Lord Ashley shall be requested to present, should the Bill reach
that house. 'JAMBS WOOD.
The Chair having been vacated by Mr. Wood, it was taken by
the Rev. Wiliam Huntingdon, rector of St. John's,
It was then Resolved,
IV. Moved by the Rev. W. H. MiGniern, rector of St. Ann's,
seconded. by the Rev. FRANCIS ATHOW WEST, Wesleyan
minister ;
That the cordial thanks of the Meeting be presented to James
Wood, Esq., for the steps he has taken in connexion with the
convening of this meeting, and forhis able conduct in the chair.
WILLIAM HUNTINGDON.
