TO THE MEMORY OF THE. LATE

RIGHT REVEREND DR. ALEXANDER,
Bishop of the Anglican Church at Jerusalem.

S
Persons of distinction having most kindly
responded to an appeal by private circular, issued by a
Provisional Committee, to offer a Testimonial of Respect to the
memory of the late Bishop of Jerusalem, by raising a fund to
increase the inadequate provision which has been left for the
support of his Lordships's family, it has been deemed desirable
to give more extended publicity to their intention, especially as
His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury has given permission
for the publication of the following letter, addressed to a mem-
ber of that Committee.

Lambeth, January 15th, 1846.
MY DEAR SIR,—A few days ago I received a circular from a
Committee of Gentlemen associated for the laudable purpose of
obtaining the means of increasing the very scanty provision on
which Mrs. Alexander has to maintain herself and eight young
children, and to defray the expenses of their education.

Such an acknowledgement I conceive to be due to the services
of the late lamented and excellent Bishop, who being placed in
a situation surrounded with difficulties, conducted the affairs of
his Church with so much discretion and prudence as to give no
cause of complaint to the heads of other communions, residing
in the same city. and to win their respect and esteem by his
piety and beneficence and by his persevering, yet temperate,
zeal in prosecuting the objects of his mission.
It is the kind of acknowledgement which I conceive the
Bishop would ask if he had the power of communicating his
wishes to his friends in this lower world. From reports to
which I have reason to attach the fullest credit, of the assist-
ance which the Bishop derived from Mrs. Alexander's atten-
tions to the sick and the poor, the instruction of children, and
other charities, and of the general favour which her gentleness,
kindness, and courtesy procured for the mission ; I feel she
has more than ordinary claims on the consideration of those
who feel a satisfaction in shewing their respect for virtue and
picy, whilst they comfort the sorrows of the widow and her
orphan family.
I know not to whom I can with greater propriety express my
feelings on this sad occasion, than to you who are so fully ac-
quainted with the amiable and estimable qualities of the la-
mented Bishop and his respected widow; I have been prevented
from doing it sooner, by an indisposition which for some days
deprived me of the power of attending to business.
Be so good as set down my name for a subscription of .t'loo.
I remain, my dear Sir, faithfully yours,
(Signed,) W. CANTUAR.
To the Rev. Dr. MeCatel.

CORNS AND BUNIONS

THE ANTI-CALLOSITY, or celebrated Russian
Corn and Bunion Plaster, the invention of an eminent
Surgeon, of high celebrity in the Russian Army. It is a well
known fact, that the natives of Russia suffer more severely
from Corns and Bunions than any other people on earth, parti-
cularly the lower class, who frequently from neglect become
absolute cripples. A certain remedy for which has never been-
presented to the Public before. By the use of this excellent
Plaster, immediate benefit will be found ; and in a short fm.,
a RADICAL CURE—not by the general mode of drawing out
the Corn,' and frequently • cutting (WHICH IS ALWAYS
ATTENDED WITH EXTREME DANGER), but by gradually
dispersing the hard or soft Corn, and entirely r emoving those
painful throbbtrigs so severely felt at-every change of weather.
BUNIONS.—The great' inconvenience and excruciating pain
attending these excrescences will be rendered perfectly.easy, if
not entirely eradicated, and so reduced as to remove the un-
sightly appearances they make on the feet. All callous excres-
cences, whatever part of the foot they may be on, are removed
in time by wearing apiece of this Plaster, which need be
changed only once,in seven or eight days.
Servants who are compelled to stand 'in hot kitchens with
stone floors, *lll find a sovereign remedy for those dreadful
ppaains they experience in
idiepi
the feet
ieeiotr;an walking,ndthoug.isndsof
whose existence remedy
•
prove an inestimable blessing.
