CURES FOR THE UNCURED ! HOLLOW AY'S OINTMENT . —An extraordinary Cure of Scrofula or Kino ' s Evil . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . II . Alliuay , 209 , High-street , Cheltenham , dated the 22 nd of January , 1850 . " To Professor Houoway . " SiK , —My eldest son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling in the neck , which , after a short time , broke out into an Ulcer . An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad casi * of Scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing in virulence , when , besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the c » ye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes , which was expected to break . During the whole of the time my suffering- boy had received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical Gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital , where one of the Surgeons said that lie would amputate the left arm , but that the blood was so impure that , if that limb were taken oil * , it would be then even impossible to subdue the disease . In tins desperate Htate I determined to give your Pills and Ointment a trial , and , after two months' p « rseverance in their use , the tumour gradually began to disappear , mid the discharge from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased , and at the expiration of eight months they were perfectly healed , and the boy thoroughly restored to the blessings ? of health , to the astonishment of u large circle of acquaintances , who could testify to the truth of this miraculous case . Three years have now elapsed without any recurrence to the malady , und the boy is now as healthy as heart can wish . Under these circumstances I consider that I should be truly ungrateful wero I not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every other means had failed .

OCTOBER CIRCULAR , 1850 . —We wish to draw a comparison between the different classes of Tea , viz ., the Commonest , which is always subject to extreme fluctuations ; the Medium , which maintains a more equable value , and forms the great bulk of Tea used in thi 3 country ; and the Finer Sorts , which , owing to their limited use , are ( like the commoner ) speedily affected in price by a large or insufficient supply . In . addressing ourselves to this point , we would remind the public that all Tea , bad or good , the best or the most worthless , pays an uniform duty , of 2 s . 2 £ d . per lb ., and is necessarily subject to equal charges for freight , porterage , wharfage , dock dues , &c . &c ; consequently the commonest is much heavier taxed , in proportion to its teal or marketable value , than either the medium or the finest class Teas : thus , whilst at present — The price of Common Congou , in Canton , \ It follows that Comis 7 d . to 8 d . per lb . r inon Congou pays .

JAMKS EPPS'S PREPARED COCOA . Cocoa is a nut , -which , besides farinaceous substance , contains a bland oil . The oil in thin nut has one advantage , which is that it is let >» liable than any other oil to rancidity . Possessing these two nutritive substances , cocoa is become a most valuable article of diet , more particularly if , by mechanical or other ineuns , the farinaceous substance can be so perfectly incorporated with the oily that the one will prevent the other from separating . Such a union is presented in the cocoa prepared by Jninea Kpps , HointBopathic Chemist , 112 , Great Uusaell-street , liloornsljury , London ; and thus , while the delightful flavour , in part dependent on the oil , is retained , the whole preparation will agree with the most delicate stomach .
