THE ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSIONERS for
IRELAND hereby give notice, that they will
RECEIVE PROPOSALS in writing for
THE HOUSE, OFFICES, AND DEMESNE
LANDS OF ELPHIN,

,
containing 478 statute or 295 plantation acres, lately the resi-
dence of the Bishops of Elphin. The house is of the first
class, with walled gardens and pleasure gropnds, admirably
suited as a residence for a nobleman's or gtleman's family,
/I
and the outoffices are very extensive, a well adapted for
all farming purposes. The whole is in cellent repair.
The land for the most part is of t 'best feeding quality
in Ireland, well sheltered, watered, and fenced. This pro-
perty adjoins the post and market town of Elphin, is 22 miles
from Longford, 9 from Boyle, and about 30 miles from Bal-
linasloe and Sligo, from which latter town there is a large
export trade.
The above lands will be let in one or more lots, as may be
agreed on, for any term of lives or years, or lives and years,
with a covenant against the subletting or assigning any part
thereof without the previous consent of the Ecclesiastical
Commissioners, testified in writing under their common seal.
Persons proposing are required to specify the particular
term desired, and the rent proposed to be given : and if it be
desired to fine down any portion of the rent, the same is to be
particularly specified, and at what rate per cent.
Proposals (post paid) to be addressed to the Secratary of
the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for Ireland, No. 30, Upper
Merrion-street, Dublin, (where a Map of the Premises may
be seen,) and to be sent in on or before the 13th day of May,
1842.

THE attention of Masons andeftders. &c., in Liverpool,
.1. is requested to a few Sam
_of Lancaster STONE,
lying at the Shop of Mr. ROBINSON,- No. 3, HANOVER-
STREET.

There are three descriptions of Stone, (White, Varied, and
Red,) all of which are equal in quality, differing only in
colour.

The Prices are calculated to induce the Trade to make a
trial of the Stone, being considerably below the present price
of Hard Stone in Liverpool.
_

Orders, stating the dimensions, quality, and quantity re-
quired, must be addressed to Mr. E. SHARPR, St.,Leonard'a
Gate, Lancaster, where they will meet with prompt atten-
tion.

SCROFULA, OR KING'S EVIL, SORE BREASTS,
ULCERATED SORE EYES, AND SCORBUTIC
SORES AND ULCERS.
OVER 20,000 PERSONS CUyED.

MR. ALLEN, who for upwards of thirty years has been
well-known to possess an effectual Cure for Scrofula,
or King's Evil, Sore Breasts, Ulcerated Sore Eyes, and
Scorbutic Sores and Ulcers, having occasion to visit Liver-
pool, where he may be detained on private business three or
four weeks, by that means persons wishing to consult him
have now an opportunity of doing so. Mr. Allen has pre-
scribed for upwards of 20,000 persons, without a single in-
stance of failure, where his directions have been attended to,
many of whom had been in a most deplorable condition ; and
from the uninterrupted success of his simple yet effectual
mode of treatment, he is decidedly of opinion that there is
no case of Scrofulous Ulceration incurable.

Any persons wishing to have a trial can apply to Mr.
ALLEN, who considers all communications strictly private,
and is fully prepared to give the most unquestionable and
satisfactory references of his competency and success.

Head, Face, and Body ; followed by Observations on Marri-

The CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM is a gentle sti-
mulant and renovator of the impaired fiinctions of life, and
is, therefore, calculated to afford decided relief to those who
have fallen into a state of chronic debility. In such persons
the appetite is generally defective, and the relish of life is al-
most subdued ; they are wanting in that activity of mind
and energy of conduct which their affairs require ; and partly
from conscious weakness, partly from excessive apprehen-
sions, are liable to sink despondently into a premature grave.
It is for these that Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, parti-
cularly designed their CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM.
Whatever enriches the blood, without inflaming it ; what-
ever braces without stimulating too violently the nervous
system ; whatever frees and disburdens the viscera and other
important organs ; whatever resolves obstructions, and throws
off viscid humours ; whatever strengthens the general habit,
and brings back the muscular fibres to their natural and healthy
tone ; whatever is calculated to produce, in a considerable
degree, all or any of these effects, must be, under certain mo-
difications and restrictions, equally adapted to every species
of decay. Hence, though the Cordial Balm of Syriacum
makes a direct attack upon the many-headed hydra in one
quarter only, it will be found to apply indirectly or collate-
rally, to almost every other ; in short, the debility of nature
can be completely reinstated by this excellent medicine, for
its reanimating powers exceed almost credibility : its fine
rich stimulating balsamic stomach qualities—its purification
of the blood—and, above all, the complete invigorator of the
nervous system, whereby the whole faculties become re-
stored to their proper power and functions. and the fallen
fabric of life is raised up to beauty, consistency, and dura-
tion, upon the ruins of an emaciated and premature decay, to
sound and Pristine health.
As nothing can be better adapted to' help and nourish the
constitution, so there is nothing more generally acknow-
ledged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward wastings, loss
of appetite, indigestion, depression of spirits, trembling or
shaking of the hands or limbs, obstinate cough, shortness of
breath, or consumptive habits. It possesses wonderful effi-
cacy in all cases of syphilis, fits, head-ache, weakness,
heaviness and lowness of spirits, dimness of sight, confused
thoughts, wandering of the mind, vapours, and melancboly ;
and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually remosed
by its use.
Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men or women,
are under its immediate influence. Old coughs, asthmas,
and consumptive habits are soon relieved, and speedily
cured. Poverty of blood, and emaciated limbs will, ere
long meet the happiest change ; the chill, watery fluid will
become rich and balsamic, and the limbs be covered with
flesh, firm and healthy.
Sold in Bottles, price Ils. each, or the quantity of four in
one Bottle for 335., by which one 11s. Bottle is saved.
Messrs. PERRY expect, when consulted by letter, the usual
fee of one pound, without which no notice whatever can be
taken of the communication (postage pre-paid.)
In cases of emergency consult the TREATISE given Gratis
with each box of
PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS,
Price 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., and lls. per box,
Warranted not to contain Copaiba, Cubebs, or Mercury.
They are of the utmost importance to those afflicted with
Scorbutic Affections, Eruptions in any part of the body,
Ulcerations or Scrofulous Taint, Pimp, &c., being justly cal-
culated to cleanse the blood from all foulness, counteract
every morbid affection, and restore weak and emaciated con-
stitutions to pristine health and vigour.
Messrs. Perry and Co., Surgeons, may be consulted, as
usual, at 4, Great Charles-street, (four doors from Easy-row),
Birmingham, and 44, Albion-street, Leeds, punctually from
Eleven in the Morning until Eight in the Evening, and on
Sundays from Eleven till One. Only one personal visit is
required from a country patient, to enable Messrs. Perry and
Co. to give such advice as will be the means of effecting a
permanent: and effectual cure, after all other means have
proved ineffectual.
