Dr. DE ROOS' PILUL/E VIT/E, or VEGETABLE LIFE
PILLS. A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages,
concocted solely from the VEGETABLE kingdom; they may
be administered to the youngest Child, or to the most delicate
Invalid, by merely regulating the dose according to the age
and strength of the person. They remove all Disorders and
Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms,
Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Fulness after Meals. Indi-
gestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of the Bowels, Listless-
ness, Heat, Pain, and Jaundiced Appearance ; and while they
act thus salutarily, they mast of necessity increase the

a few doses of these Pills. They also produce-sound refresh--
ing Sleep, a keen Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy

,
..
in invigorating the system, and imparting a pleasing serenity
of mind. They are unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few
instances, where occasionally employed in Families and
Schools, will other assistance be needed.

For t'emales they are truly excellent, removing Headaches,
Depression of Spirits, Dizziness of Sight, Nervousness, Dim-
ples, Sallowness, and giving a healthy juvenile bloom to the

cnlarly ben, ficial boil before and after confinement. For
Elderly People they are the most comfortable Medicine that
can be taken.

Mr. Smith, St. Ives: "Since taking your Pills I have not
once required the services of a medical man, and feel satisfied
this would be the case generally, if people were not so much
governed by prejudice."—T. Webster, Esq., Sleaford, near
Melton Mowbray: " Having read your advertisement, I felt
assured your Pills would be of use to some of my poorer
neighbours. I have had 12 boxes, and they have derived
great benefit from taking them. I shall continue to recom-
mend your valuable Pills to all my friends."— Mr. Edwin
Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax: " I find your nuke Vita
a very pleasant medicine in removing headache."—Maent-
wrog, Tan-y-Bwlch, North Wales: "Mr. Warner's compli-
ments to Dr. De Roos, and he finds no medicine do him so
much good as his Pilula Vita."
Persons going Abroad, Captains, and others, cannot store
more important articles of health than the above. which, by
regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the
Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent
abroad; as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental
to long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest
can be properly furnished without them, for when far removed
from medical aid, they will find in these Pills a never-failing
restorative.

MPO RTA NT.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for
Dr. DE ROOS' Pius, have attempted to foist upon the Pur-
chaser other Medicines, or trash of their own compounding,
from which they obtain a larger profit. The GENUINE have
the words " WALTER DE ROOS, LONDON," in white let-
ters on the red ground printed in the stamp, affixed to each
Box, by special direction of Her Majesty's Honourable Com-
missioners, to protect the Public from Fraud, and to imitate
which is Felony. _ _

THE ALL-HEALING REMEDY!!!
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.

AN EXTRAORDINARY AND RAPID CURE OF P.RYSIPELAS
IN THE LEG, AFTER MEDICAL AID HAD FAILED.—COpy of
a Letter from Mrs. Elizabeth Yeates, of tke Post Office, Ala-
:nick-road, near Bognor, Sussex, dated Jan. 12th, 1853.—T0
PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY.—Sir,—I suffered for a considerable
period from a severe attack of Erysipelas. which at length
settled in my leg, and resisted all medical treatment. My
sufferings were very great, and I quite despa'red of any per-
manent amendment, when I was advised to have recourse to
your Ointment and Pills. I did so without delay, and am
happy to say the result was eminently successful, for they
effected a radical cure of my leg and restored me to the en-
joyment of health. I shall ever speak with the utmost
confidence of your medicines, and have recommended them
to others in this neighbourhood similarly afflicted, who de-
rived equal benefit.—l am, Sir, your obl►ged and faithful
Servant, (Signed) ELIZABETH YEATES.
A DREADFULLY DIsEASF.O ANCLE CURED AFTER BEING
GIVEN UP BY THE FACULTY AT MALTA AND PORTSMOUTH
HOSPITALS.—The following important communication has
been forwarded to Professor Holloway for publication, by Mr.
B. Dixon, Chemist, King-street. Norwich.—Copy of a Letter
from Captain Smith, of Great Yarmouth. dated January 19th,
1853.—T0 Mr. Dixox.—Dear send you the particulars
of a cure effected by Professor Holloway's invaluable medi-
cines:—Mr. JOHN WALTON, late in Her Majesty's Service,
in the British Fleet at Malta, had a very bad ulcerated ancle,
and after having been in the Malta Hospital for six months,
was sent to England as an invalid to Portsmouth Hospital,
where he remained an inmate four months, there, as at Malta,
refusing to have the limb amputated, he was turned out in-
curable. He then came to Yarmouth, and Was under a medi-
cal gentleman for about three months, but his ancle became
so much worse that all hope was lost. At this period, by my
advice, he tried Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which by un-
remitted application, healed all the ulcers, and restored him
to perfect health and strength.—l remain, Dear Sir, yours
very truly, (Signed) JOHN SMITH.

SURPRISOIN:CURE OF A BAD BREAST, NERVOUS DEBI-
LITY, AND GENERAL ILL HEALTH„—COpy of a Letter 'rpm
Mr. 7'. F. Tier, Chemist, Ere., Lower Moss-lane, Manchester,
dated Feb. 12th, 1853.—T0 PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY.—Dear
Sir,-1 have great pleasure in forwarding to you the particu-
lars of a very extraordinary cure of a bad breast, effected
solely by the use of your celebrated Ointment and Pills. Mrs.
MARTHA BELL, of Pitt street, in this Town, had been for a
considerable time labouring under nervous debility, loss of
appetite, and general ill health, occasioned by ulcerated
wounds in the breast. She had much experience in the use
of all the known remedies for the cure of ulcers, but without.
any beneficial result, in fact she had nearly lost all and
hope of a cure being effected. In this thstretzlng and painful
condition of body and mind, she w persuaded to have re-
course to your invainat?!t: Ointment and Pills, which she
immediatolr ;1.14, and in the course of a very short time the
crect produced was mo.t astonishing; her appetite was
speedily improved the sores and ulcers in the breast gradually
healed, and the nervous excitement of her system was wholly
removed.--1 remain, Dear Sir, yours faithfully

FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT.

MONDAY MORNING.

Tirz all-absol'Eg topic of every company and every
tongue cOntinueareveni to this good hour, the war—the
Alma—and Sebastopol. If it be, justifiable to say of
" Macedonia's Madman" that--
Thrice he routed all his foes,
And thrice he slew the slain,

1 it is scarcely less true or less justifiable to say of the
1 Knights of Cockneydom that they have often fought Alma
" o'er again." Panoramas and penny-booths—placards
and pamphlets—vie with each other in laying vivid, if not
truthful, representations of that great military achieve-
ment before an admiring and bewildered public, while
every journal teems with details of the action, and is made
racy with anecdotes of its heroes. Many of these are, no
doubt, highly coloured, and not a few of exceedingly ques-
-1 tionable authenticity ; yet in general they bear an amount
of characteristic peculiarity highly suggestive of national
idiosyncracy, and a cool indifference, if not an absolute

contempt, of danger, which at once gratifies and interests
the reader. Conspicuous among those is one as honourable
to British humanity as the intrepid daring of her sons is
creditable to their valour. When the allied troops were
marching from the position out of which they had driven
the discomfited hordes of Russia on the morning of the
23d, they had to pass (sixty long hours after the battle) a
group of seven hundred and fifty wounded Russians,
stretched upon the battle field, who had been left by their
defeated comrades destitute of succour, and abandoned to
the lingering agonies of unassuaged suffering. Ere our
gallant army could bid adieu to these miserably maimed,
deserted, and sr' sent

the wounded men would be confided to their charge, and
that their wounds might be attended to. An English

surgeon, Dr. MoNsoN, of the 44th Regiment,

was left

with them,—the sanctity of his mission, and the preca-
rious efficacy of a flag of truce, being his only means of
security against the probable vindictiveness of the wounded
wretches' returning comrades. His was, indeed, true
heroism, unstimulated by eclat.

The threatened pre-Christmas Parliamentary session
has blown up. The Cabinet Council, held on Wednesday,
decided that it is not necessary, and, in ordering the pro-
rogation to the 16th of November, came, it is said, to the
understanding that Parliament shall assemble for the
business somewhere about, or rather before
the beginning of the coming year. The long-talked-of
visit of the French EMPEROR and EMPRESS to our QUEEN,
has, within the last few days, acquired a fresh vitality,
stimulated, it is considered, by a rumour of extensive
preparations among the State apartments at Windsor
Castle, and some mysterious commands touching English
and India shawls, received by some great house of business
in the metropolis, from some one or other whose name is
of too much consequence to be permitted to transpire.
Among the London novelties—for a thing may be a
novelty in London although quite common in Paris—is

While e - directed

e POSTMASTER-GENERAL has his e,

towards improvement-in this direction, he might find it
conducive to public convenience also were he to bestow a
moment's consideration on how the " smoke nuisance"
might be abated at some of the post receiving-houses, in
which the function of cigar vendor is commingled with
that of distributor of "postage stamps" to her Majesty's
lieges. In some of these establishments the ventilation
seems so imperfect, and the accumulation of smoky vapour
so dense, that females, or parties with delicate lungs, are
exposed to great inconvenience by the thoughtlessness
which converts a public office into a cigar divan. In
these remarks I have purposely abstained from any allu-
sion to the bold demeanour and free style which certain

" fast young gentlemen" are said to indulge in towards
ladies whose business leads them to enter these shops to
purchase postage stamps. A few reformatory hints in
this direction from his lordship would not be thrown

Few subjects have of late commanded a greater share of
attention, or received more sympathising consideration,
than the condition of our sick and wounded soldiers in the
East, as that has been represented. That the published
details are, in many instances, gross exaggerations, hardly
admits of doubt; but after making large allowance for
overstatements, there is still a sufficient amount of misery
and inevitably unheeded suffering to call for active ex-
ertion on the part of the public. Fortunately the atten-
tion of the wealthy and humane has been roused to the
subject, and ere many days elapse a corps of male and
female hospital attendants will have reached the scene of
suffering, and those, combined with the official provision
already made, will be able to meet even the most urgent
necessities of the occasion. Another position in which the
calamities of war have revealed themselves to our aching
sensibilities, has arisen from the wail of the widow and
the silent though apprehensive lamentation of the orphan.
A willing ear has been on all sides turned to their plaint,
and all classes have vied and still vie with each other in
voluntary contributions towards their relief. With the
watchful assiduity and native kindness of heart which
have at all times distinguished her when the voice of sor-
row and suffering has met her ear, the QUEEN has led the
way in preparing succour and consolation for them in their
bereavement, and the example has been nobly followed.
Public benevolence has been roused all over the country,
town competing with city, and hamlet with village, in
contributing the only means of solace which it is in the
power of a generous and great nation to bestow on those
who cannot be looked on as other than the widows and
orphans of the state. This is as it should be, and it forms
a marked and honcgrable contrast to the barbarous apathy
and cruel indifference manifested by the Russians towards
their wounded and helpless countrymen, as that was dis-
played by the miserable sufferers on the heights of Alma.
Unlike the natural, the literary world may be said to
hibernate in summer and blossom in winter. When the
beetle and the dormouse quit their holes, the parterres of
the Row begin to look sere—the blossoms have been
culled—in the literary orchard, the fruit which will ripen
has ripened and been gathered and garnered out of sight
of the sun; and the summer of nature becomes in a great
degree at least the winter of literature. When autumn's
yellow tints are fading into cheerless brown, and the
leaden sky which howls the prelude to November enwraps
the shrinking earth, the trimmers of the literary garden
begin to clear her encumbered flower-beds —her husband-
men to look over and proclaim the nature of the coming
crops. The first throes of the literary spring are evinced

in the dissemination of those ingeniously concerted mis-
sives, the Publishers' Circulars, the appearance of which
gives unmistakeable token of the intellectual "time of
flowers" being at hand, and no revival of vital energy in
the animal or vegetable kingdom is more regular in its
period of return than that which permeates the
literary soil urging into shoot, and bough, and blos-
som, the germ which genius has implanted, and
which culture and intellectual care alone can foster
into wholesome life-sustaining fruit. True enough,
an occasional literary product forces its way into
convulsive life amidst the prevailing general dor-
mancy of the literary garden and field, but in general
they are feeble and delicate of growth, like the unnatural
strawberries and erratic apple-blossoms which we annually
read of in provincial newspapers, phenomena which every-
body wonders at but nobody admires, and which ti
even deluded into the hope of seeing arrive at maturity
The publishers' recess of the present year has proved no
exception to those of ordinary currency. Some wild
flowers and not a few weeds have overrun the neglected
garden ; while here and there a nettle of more than ordi-
nary pungency, or a thistle of sharper and harder thorns
than usual, like " Firmilian," has shot up among the un-
expected wonders ; nor hare the nightshade and dock-
weed been without their representatives. Among the
latter class, the reading public has been favoured, or lila
contrary, with a luaus nature by an ofP.cer in Hsu
MAJESTY'S navy—lwaheestmtblG in its time of flowering—
sickly constitution—uncomely in aspect—of repulsive
flavour—in short, a literary weed of rank and disagreeable
as well as untimely growth. This, even the less literary
of your readers will readily perceive, is the " English
Prisoners in Russia," in publishing which Lieutenant
Rom fulfils a duty for which he seems to have been
specially prepared in Russia. He was, it must be remem-
bered, an officer on board the ill-fated Tiger when that
vessel was stranded and her crew captured off Odes
