LTERATION IN THE PRICES OF TEA.—The
rk intelligence by this month's Overland Mail from
China, is of a very favourable character as regards the
future supplies of Tea.
Large shipments have been made to England at very
low rates, and will speedily be followed by consignments
if considerable extent, under the new Tariff. These
facts, with the abolition of the monopoly of the Hong
Merchants, which also will take place at the same time,
must render the first cost of Tea still lower.
The complete arrangement of the treaty between the
two Governments is so near at hand, and the present
mat ket value of Teas in England has so much sympa-
thized with the approaching changes, that we are now
enabled to make a reduetion,from this date, of 4d. per
lb. on finest Congnu ; 6.1. per lb. on finest Pekoe; and
Green Teas in proportion.

JOHN Lth and CO. beg to direct attention to the
exclusive advantages of this most useful Invention.
The animal oil in Feathers, which putrifies and causes
them to smell, is completely destroyed, and a saving of
from 15 to 20 per cent. is effected in new Feathers, from
their increased strength and elasticity. The increase is
about one bed in five of good Feathers, and in all cases
the expensive addition of new Feathers, as is always re-
quired in other plans of dressing, is rendered unnecessary.
After disease or death, Beds are restored to perfect purity.

OPTIONS OF THE PRESS

" This work, a TENTH Edition of which is now pre-
sented to the public—ten thousand copies have been ex-
hausted since its first appearance—has been very much
improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended
and clear detail of general principles, as also by the inser-
tion of sev3ral new and highly interesting cases. The
numberless instances daily occurring, wherein affections
of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of con-
sumption, which, however, when traced to their source,
are found to result from certain baneful habits, fully
proves that the principle of the division of labour is no-
where more applicable than in medical practice. We feel
no hesitation in saying, that there is no member of society
by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such
person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a.
Clergyman."—Sun.
" Messrs. Curtis's work, called MANHOOD, is one
of the few books now coming before the public on such a
subject, which can lay claim to the character of being
strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully in-
telligible to all who read it. The moral and medical pre-
cepts given in it, render it invaluable."--Magnet.
, ' The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book, entitled MAN-
-11 00D , has really astonished us by developing a series of
maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious
habit of which it treats. The char connexion pointed
out between the assigned cause and the effects is percep-
tible to every capacity."—Age.
This is a work that we. fear there exists too much
need for, to cause us to hesitate to recommend it for ge-
neral perusal. Every branch of those frightful maladies,
whether the result of immoral habits or secret vices, is
here succinctly treated, and, divested of all medical tech-
nicality, plain and easy directions are given for the best
mode to be pursued in all cases, however complicated or
apparently hopeless. To the married, as well as the un-
married, this little work alike affords consolation and cure
in peculiar cases, and we are doing service to society in
recommending it to general notice."—Essex and Herta
Mercury.
" The scientific views taken by the authors, of the
source and origin of many of the most distressing effects
of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to
the character of experienced surgeons ; and the result of
our careful perusal of the work has been to impress us
with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the
authors, and to satisfy us that those intrusted with the
care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur-
nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most
frightful maladies to which flesh is heir."—Old England.
