forms us that he has been cured of old, scaly
Salt Rheum, of eighteen years standing on his
heard, fingers, and hands, by a cake OF an arli-
Gle much advertised lately-we speak of Jones
Italian Chemical Soap. He also informs us
that he has tried its effects on his female slave
Rose, much marked with sun spots, and he
found in two weeks her skin much clearer and
whiier.
James Ethan, painter, in jersey City, was
cured of carbunces and pimpleS, which he was
afflicted with for many years, by part OF a cake
of Jones' Italian Chemical Soap.
Persons in purchasing this must always ask
for JONES' ITALIAN CHEMICAL SOAP !;

with codnterfets, will be too much discouraged

Steamship Washington.


BY the arrival of the steamship Washington,
Capt. Hewitt, from Southampton. we have five
days later intelligence from London. In a COM
mercial point Of view, the news is highly i'm
porant. There had been since the departure of
the Caledonia, about dozen failures, principal
ly Liverpool houses, but small oonosrnsE cem-
pared with those previously reported. showing
that the revulsiOn has reached another class Of
concerns, and is becoming less injurious in its
course.
On the whole, we consider the accounts much
more favorable than those received by the
steamer of the 10Th Of October. There had
been more limited number of failures and to a
less amount than was generally anticipated. The
corn markets had improved cotton had partial
ly recovered from the recent decline eonsols
were advancing; the Bank Of England had in
creased its bullion and extended its circulation,
and been more liberal in its discounts. This is
the gst of the accounts received by the Wash
ington, and there is certainly grounds for the
belief that the revulsion has reached it's cumi-
mating point, and is slowly subsiding. Look
out for relapse.
