      A SSOCTATION for the PROTECTION of XJL HOMCEOPATHTC STUDENTS and PRACTITIONERS . At a meeting of the committee , held on the 1 st of September , in consequence of th . f recently published resolutions of the Provincial Medical and Surgical Association , and other allopathic bodies , regarding homoeopathy , it was resolved : — 1 . That homoeopathy is thoroughly reconcileable with science and common sense , is in accordance with the experience of some thousands of medical men . and deserves the study of practitioners and the confidence of the public . 2 . That the framers of the hostile resolutions referred to , and other prejudiced opponents , are totally ignorant of homoeopathy , avowedly refusing to study its principles ( in the writings of Hahnemann and others ) , nnd to witness its practice in the homoeopathic hospitals and dispensaries , to which they have been repeateilly and cordially invited . 3 . That , notwithstanding the difference in their treatment of disease , there can be nothing derogatory in homceopathists and allopatliists ( equal in education , science , and social position ) consulting together at the request of patients and friends , as to the nature of the malady . 4 . That the resolutions of the Provincial Medical and Surgical Association , representing , as they do , the opinions of only a small fraction of the allopathic body , are in themselves , and for the reasons given above , utterly valueless .

      A MUSEMENT AND ~ INSTRUCTION . — x \_ The public are admitted , without charge , to the British Museum , National Gallery , East India Company ' s Museum , London Missionary Society ' s Museum , and to the Splendid Exhibition of Art and Industry , on view from 8 in the morning till 8 at night , at Benetfink and Company ' s Emporium for Furnishing Ironmongery , 89 and 90 , Cheapside , London . The splendid stock comprises every variety of Electro-plated Wares , Chandeliers , Lamps , Tea-urns . Tea-trays , Cutlery , Iron Bedsteads , Baths , Stoves , Fire-irons ; in short , every requisite either lor the Mansion or the Cottage . At this establishment you cannot be deceived , because every article is marked in plain figures , and at such prices as can be offered only by a house whose gross sales are so enormous aa to enable them to sell the best articles at 10 or 15 per cent , less than any other house in the kingdom . That we can furnish a mansion , is demonstrated by the continued patronage of the nobility ind gentry ; and to prove that we can also suit the necessary and judicious economy of those moving in a more humble sphere , we are enabled actually to furnish an eight-roomed house for £ 5 , and the articles , too , of the best quality and workmanship . This may appear incredible ; but as we are the largest buyers of iron goods , to say nothing of those of our own manufacture , in London , we can do it , and subjoin a list of the requisites : — 1 Hall-lamp 0 10 6 1 Umbrella-stand 0 4 6 I Bronzed Dining-room Fender and Standards .. 0 5 0 1 Set of Polished Steel Fire-irons 0 3 6 I Brass Toast-stand 0 16 I Fire-guard n o ' ' 2 1 Bronzed and Polished Steel Scroll Tender .. 0 8 6 1 Set Polished Steel Fire-irons , Bright Pan .. 0 5 6 1 Ornamented Japanned Scuttle and Scoop .. 0 4 6 1 Best Bed-room Fender and Polished Steel Fireirons 0 7 0 2 Bed-room Fenders , and 2 Sets of Fire-irons .. 0 7 6 Set of Four Block-tin Dish Covers .. .. 5 11 6 1 Bread-grater , 6 d ., Tin Candlestick , 9 d 0 13 1 Teakettle , 2 s . 6 d ., 1 Gridiron , Is . .. .. 0 3 6 1 Frying-pan , Is ., 1 Meat-chopper , Is . 6 d 0 2 6 J Coffeepot .
