SUFFERERS FROM CHRONIC RHEUMA-
TISM AND RHEUMATIC GOUT are respectfully
informedthat there is scarcely any form of that acute disease,
'however malignant. which will not immediately yield to the
remedy of PROFESSOR HAHN, late PHYSICIAN to the
GRAND DUKE OF BADEN, and formerly to the KING or
WTIRTEMBILTRG.

DR. HAHN, although residing in this country since 1849.
Las hitherto abstained from calling public attention to this
remedy (which is the result of profound pathological study
and intense chemical research), apprehensive that he might
be classed amongst the numerous pretenders of the day ;
baying, however, during the past year received a number of
highly satisfactory testimonials from noblemen and others,
with permission in some cases to refer to them, he is induced
to offer the remedy to the community, and will forward the
prescription, with all necessary instructions as to regimen,
diet, Stc., on receipt of the fee of 10s., by postoffice order,
'ayable to CARL HAHN, M.D., Dispensary, Nottingham.
Reference is permitted to the following Gentlemen, who
bare been permanently cured of Rheumatic Gout, in its most
distressing form :—Robert Colclough, Esq., Newfield Hall,
Vttozetor, Staffordshire; W. D. Ludlam, Esq., Wingfield
!ark, near Alfreton, Derbyshire ; Captain Gresham, Hunslet
Hall, Leeds. Copies of testimonials from the Archbishop of
Dublin; the Mayor of Bristol ; Sir George Sitwell, Bart.,
Reinahaw Hall, Derbyshire; T. Dalby, Esq., Toxteth-park,
Liverpool; the Mayor of Southampton ; Dr. Clarke ; Dr.
Ferguson ; and the principal Medical Gentlemen in the Mid-
'sod Coanties ; from nine Noblemen, and from upwards of
thirty Members of the present House of Commons, will he
sent on application.

Weare happy to hear that Professor HAHN, whose recent
lectures to the students at Guy's, on DEAFNESS, its causer
and cure, gave such complete satisfaction, is preparing for
the faculty a translation of his work on Gout, published as
Manheim, in 1848.—London Medical Gazette.
am constrained, however, to admit, that as a specific ap-
iplicable to every form of Gout, none has yet been discovered
of equal potency to that of Dr. HAHN, of Manheim.—Dr.
Harvey's Practice of Physic, page 238.

WAVERTREE BOARD OF HEALTH

THE usual monthly meeting took place last night, at
the Public Office, when the chair was taken by Mr.
Rishton ; and there were also present Messrs. Chaffer,
ficton, Gore, Davis, Witham, and Anderton.
The attention of the board was directed to the bad
state of a road leading from Mill-lane to Wavertree Nook,
over the land of Mr. Robertson Gladstone. The board had
no power to order the owner to put it in repair, but re-
commended that Mr. Gladstone be applied to on the
subject.
- -

'On the motion of Mr. Picton, seconded by Mr. Chaffer,
it was ordered that the law-clerk be instructed to write to
Mr. Sorton, respecting a nuisance that existed on his
premises ; and unless the nuisance be removed, proceed-
ings to be commenced in the usual manner.
An'application was made by Mr. John Siddell and Mr.
Yates, relative to the placing of a lamp over the door of
.the former, for which he was willing to pay 20s. a-year,
+until other buildings were erected adjacent to his dwelling,
when the lamp might be put in the regular place. The
board had no power to comply with the request, but sug-
gested that Mr. Siddell should put a lamp up at his own
• expense, and light it from-his•nwn meter.
Mr. Gore moved, and Mr. Anderton seconded, that the
subject of placing lamps in Belle Vue be referred to the
committee. _

Mr. Chaffer moved, and Mr. Picton seconded:, that
leave be granted to Mr. Finland to open a footpath from
his house to the main drains, for the purpose of laying
down a tile drain to carry off the cistern water from his
premises. The motion was•earried.
The surveyor said, in answer to a question, that he had
not yet been able to procure a•quantity of cinders, which
were requisite for mending Sandown-lane, leading to the
Railway-bridge.
A memorial was presented from several inhabitants,
requesting permission of the board to make a crossing from
Wavertree-road to Wavertree-vale. The memorial having
been read over, the board acceded to the request.
This closed the business of the meeting.

On the telegraphic news of fresh successes in the Crimea,

on the whole, steadily supported till three o'clock, when, on
the receipt of the Second Edition of The Times, with the news
from St. Petersburg, the market suddenly fell per cent.,

business is unimpOrtant, and closing prices exhibit little
change. Land and Banking descriptions are very buoyant,

AUTUMN FOGS—DAMP AIR—CONSUMPTION.
LETALL WHO ARE AFFLICTED WITH CONSUMPTION,
COUGHS, COLDS, ASTHMA, HOARSENESS, LOSS OF
W ICE, & TIGHTNESS OF THE CHEST, TRY
WOOLLEY'S PECTORAL CANDY,
a short perseverance in the use of which is almost
certain to result in a complete cure. Common coughs, where
no physical disorganization exists, and sore throats, imme-
diately yield to its healing influence. It strengthens the
lungs to resist the effect of sudden changes in the air, and it
laealthily.braces and invigorates the chest. It is eminently
useful ta the aged; and all who have weak lungs should keep
a constant supply, Persons of the most delicate constitution
stray resort to these Lozenges with perfect safety, as experi-
ence has primed that their influence is uniformly salutary.
The Proprietor has pleasure in submitting the following
anostaattisfactory Testimonials, selected from a great many :

Extract of a letter addressed by Dr. Kernot to the Proprietor
of`Woolley's Pectoral Candy, dated Sept. 18th, 1852.
Sir,—l feel a pleasure in recommending Woolley's Pectoral
Candy, in pulmonary complaints, influenza, coughs, colds,
asthma, and affections of the chest. "G. C. KERNOT, M.D.
Chrisp-street, Poplar New Town 2 London."

Copy of a letter from Mr. T. F. Ker, Chemist, (late of the
.Maa,hester Royal Infirmary,) 82, Moss-lane, Manchester.
4' y , 1853.
Sir,--I had rn, pleasure of hearing Manchester, January
one of myl3th customers
the other day speak veil highly of sour invaluable Woolley's
pectoral Candy. He said tnba ha had been very much dis-
tressed with a troublesome cough for many years, and had
'tried most of the patent medicines advertised in the newspa-
pers-for couzlis, colds, &c.,but, he regretted to state, without
finding any beneficial effects from them. Fortunately, how-
ever, he received a handbill concerning Woolley's Pectoral
Candy at his house one day; after reading it he resolved,
maim a final trial for the cure of his cough, by pur-
• _ delay; he did so, and the result of
arked, was permanent relief after hav-

chasing a box !v.

THE LOSS OP THE FORERUNNER

TETE melancholy wreck of the African mail steamer
Forerunner, the particulars of which we have given in
another column, will render interesting the following
description of the place where she was lost, which we
extract from a valuable description of the island of Madeira,

published a short time since. It says :—" Passing Point
San Lorenzo a long, low, and broken line of cliffs,
forming the most eastern point of the island ; the
Desertas cluster of huge 'rocks lie on our
left; one of which, standing, apart, on the north-
ern extremity, appears, at a distance, like a ship in
full sail. It is said that a Danish vessel of war, mistaking
it for cute, discharged a gun, as a signal, to hoist colours,
which not being done, she fired on the rock for its dis-
obedience. Steering west, the villages of Machico and
Santa Cruz come into view, both prettily situate at the
month of ravines; after which rounding Cape Garaja.o—
Inown to the English by the name of Brazen Head—we
have before us the Bay of Funchal, lying like a silvery
lake, if the weather be calm ; with the city, nestling, as it
were, in the furthermost recess." The book from which
the above extract is taken contains a comprehensive ac-
count of the Island of Madeira. The portion relating to
the climate and meteorology'of Madeira was contributed
by the late Dr. Mason.; the review of the state of agricul-
ture and the tenure of land is the work of the Very Rev.
Dr. Peacock, Dean of Ely ; and the historical and descrip-
tive account of the island is by Mr. John Driver, formerly
consul for Greece at Madeira, and now a resident of this
town. We are further informed by Mr. Driver, that the
Desertas are nine miles to the right of the point, and that
vessels from Funclial bound for England generally keep
nearer to the Desertas than Point Lorenzo as the safest
course. The nearest place for boats or other assistance to
the wreck would be from the town of Machico, about half
way between Point Lorenzo and Funchal, the two last
being distant•abont eighteen miles.

CORN

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 10.—We have had but a slender
attendance at our market this morning : holders of wheat
demanded rather more money, which has been paid only
in few instances, and the general business has been of
limited amount. Flour meets with a slow sale, at previous
rates. Barley and beans are in fair request at full prices.
Oats and oatmeal in steady retail demand, without change
in value. Indian corn is held for Is. per qr. advance,
which has checked sales on the spot, otherwise there were
buyers in quantity; a good many further parcels of
American floating have found purchasers to-day.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

NEW YORK, July 25.—Money is becoming daily more
plentiful at 7 to 9 per cent., though its good effect is not
so sensibly felt as it ought to be, owing to the great reluc-
tance on the part of capitalists to place it, except on a very
high class of commercial paper, of which, we may add,
there is but a limited amount offering just now. The
rates are 9 to 12 per cent. ou prime 60 days and 4 months
acceptances, and 7 per cent. on call. Foreign Exchange is
nther inactive, and the transactions to-day were to a
