Gentlemen , —I can conscientiously bear testimony to the general good effects of Dr . Locoek's Wafers , as very many after a trial have called upon me to express their satisfaction and gratitude . The following case is but a sample of many others in which the medicine has surprised the patient by its rapidity in working a wonderful cure : — a female residing ill the neighbourhood of Halifax had long been subject to a confirmed asthmatic cough , when her husband applied to me . He said he was persuaded she could not live many days , as from congh and want of rest she was so much enfeebled ; aud the use of medicine , in which she had persevered for many months , had given her no relief . The very first dose of the Wafers wrought a surprising change ; they soothed her cough , and gave her a comfortable and refreshing sloe ]); and , by persevering in their use , her strength has returned , and with , out the aid of any- other medicine this patient , who had been a long and apparently hopeless sufferer , is now fully restored to health . This case I can vouch for , and can satisfy any inquiries by reference to the parties . Yours , 4 c , J . Watebhouse . REMARKABLE CASE OF IMPROVEMENT OF THE VOICE .

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS . " We regard tre work before us , the " Silent Friend , " as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints hitherto little understood , and passed over by ihe majority of the medical profession , for what reason we are at a loss to know . We must , how . ever , confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds , that we not only recommend , but cordially wish every one who is the victim of past folly , or suffering from indiscretion , to profit by the advice contained in its pages . "—Age and Argus . "The Authors of the " Silent Friend" seem to be thoroughly conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are , we fear , too prevalent in the present day . The perspicuous style in wliicb this book i s written , awl the valuable hints it conveys to those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage slate , cannot fail to recommend it to a careful perusal . "—Era . " This work should be read by all win ) value health and wish to enjoy life , for the truisms therein contained defy all doubt . —Farmers' Journal . THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM . Is a gentle stimulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life , and is exclusively directed to the cure of such complaints as arise from a disorganization of the Generative System , whether constitutional or acquired , loss of sexual power , and debility arising from Syphilitic disease ; and is calculated to afibrd decided relief to those who , by early indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened the powers of their system , and fallen into a state of chronic debility , by which the constitution is left in a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept up which places the individual in a state of anxiety for the remainder of life . The consequences arising from this dangerous practice , are not confined to its pure physical result , but branch to moral ones ; leading the excited deviating mind into a fertile field of seducive error—into a gradual but total degradation of manhood—into a pernicious application of those inherent rights which nature wisely instituted for the preservation of her species ; bringing on premature decrepitude , and all tha habitudes of old age . Constitutional weakness , sexual debi . h ' ty , obstinate gleets , excesses , irregularity , obstructions of certain evacuations , total impotoncy and barrenness are effectually removed by this invaluable medicine .

PARR'S LIFE PILLS . READ the following letter from Mr . W . Alexander , Bookseller , Yarmouth : — Great Yarmouth , March 27 , 1845 . Gentlemen , —Being recently at Norwich , I called upon a gentleman at his request . He said , having seen your name in a newspaper as an agent for the sale of PARR'S PILLS , and also letters addressed to you testifying their efficacy in the cure of various complaints , I resolved to try them . I had been very unwell for two or three years , my stomach much out of order , and I constantly felt a painful difficulty in breathing ; I employed two medical gentlemen , and took a great quantity of medicine , but derived no benefit ; on the contrary , I found myself daily declining and getting weaker , so that I could scarcely walk from one Street to another ; indeed I was in a melancholy desponding state . Accordingly , I purchased a box , and took them as directed . At the end of a week I was much better , having taken , I think , only eighteen pills ; consequently , I continued taking them regularly , aad when I had taken two boxes and a half , I became quite well , and to this day I have enjoyed life , having now good health and good spirits . If , however , I feel any slight indisposition , I have recourse to the medicine I have so much reason to prize , which restores me to my usual good health . This gentleman wished his ease to ho made puttie , although for obvious reasons he could n » t authorise me to give his name . This timid , perhaps in some cases , prudent cautiousness is not uncommon . A neighbouring gentleman has several times admitted to mo that he derives great benefit from the occasion . ! use of Parr ' s medi . cines , but will not permit me to mention it to any one . I am , dear Sir , yours , respectfully , WILLIAM ALEXANDER . P . S . The Pills have entirel y removed tho cough and Asthma . MR .

Sibs , —Having used PARR'S LIFE PILLS on several occasions when attacked by violent Bilious complaints , and having been fully satisfied of their efficacy , I beg leave in justice to you , as proprietors of the medicine , to testifyas much .

" I have , within the last few months , visited every part of France , and I declare that I have seen more misery in one street in Dublin than in all France ; the people are well clad , well fed , and merry ; they are all employed on Small Farms of their own , or on oquitable takings !"Vide Lord CUtncurry ' s Letter in 1 / orm ' ng Ckronicle , Oct 5 ft , 1843 . Those persons desirous of bettering their condition and of becoming "independent Lalwirm , " by entering the "Productive-labour" Market , will do well to read "A Practical Workon SmaU Farms , " by Fea & oes O'Connoi Es « . It contains much useful Information , invaluable to the parties for whom It was written ; and Old Farmers will find many useful lessons in the new system of husbandry , which they have yet tolearn . Thewortc displays great practical knowledge , and is written so that any one who reads may understand . Mr . O'Connor seoms n « t to have used either the old or ' new nomenclature' in this work ; he has not buried his meaning in chemical technji-: alities , which very few understand * but which most writers oii agriculture seem so desirous--of using . Perhaps they do not understand the practice of Farming so well as ihe theory j and , therefore , mystify that whiebthey cannot explain , by some long chemical term ; . which the plain reader may pass over as a " Sard , teord , " hard topra .

Though the work is written for holders of Small Farms , yet no Allotment Tenant ought to he without it ; the valuable information it contains respecting tilling and cropping is' alike useful to all . "—Extract from a Farmer ' s Letter , " This really useful little volume ought to be in tho hands of every one at all connected with agricultural pursuits . "—Lloyd's Weekly London Newspaper . " Although we feel no desire , in the language of the proud Peruvian , in contemplating what wc hope to rejoice in , the contentment , prosperity , and comfort of our feliow men , to exclaim— " This , this is my work ; " nor js out . object , as Mr . O'Connor declares his to be , " that each j man who is willing to work may be independent of every other man in the world for his daily bread , " yet we can I with much pleasure recognise in the book before us a powerful instrument for aiding in developing in nian much higher destiny than lie has hitherto attained , "Mr O'Connor shews clearly , wha twill soon be apparent f > all who reflect deeply , tliat we arc not left without tha jnsans of obtaining not only aU tliat is physically rmui . site for man ' s progress , but also that wc may readily pro " il ace what is apparently desirable ; for none who carefully paruse this work can doubt that a system of small farms held by active and industrious labourers , would amply return , in exchange for healthful exertion , for ujore y s requisite to preserve physical strength . " He also shews thatsometliingmore tlian this is rcquisite to ensure happiness , for he says in page 121 , " I ftfej convinced that man can place no reliance whatever upon his fellow man , or a community of men , when circum . stances operate upon his or their minds , the influence and effect of which would be stronger than any abstract notions of justice . For instance , if a community of la . bouring men purchase a quantity f hind , and " lure la . hour lor its cultivation , however just tWir intentions ana pure their motives , they will nevertheless fuel themselves justified in raising the price of the land , according to the improved value conferred upon it by the labour of the hired workman . This power of steadily trenching upon the rights of others is one of the greatest disadvantages against which the labourer has to contend ; and those hired by a community , at the end of twenty years would be in no better condition than they were at starting , vrlale the community of proprietors would have increased tiie value of their property twenty-fo'd ; that is , they would have robbed those labourers , by whose industry the value was increased , of nineteen shillings in the pound . " "Theso remarks are powerful arguments in the sphere in which they arc written , and if examined in their rda , tion to the universal , they confirm the testimony that " The earth is the Lord's , and all that therein is he round world and they that dwell therein ; " for after partaking freely of what is good for each order of creation , any self-appropriation , by whatever parties in . dulged in , is from evil , and will produce its consequence , namely , vice , crime , and misery . " We can strongly recommend Mr . O'Connor's work to aur readers , containing a great amount of practical information on agriculture , which should be most popularly diffused . "—Concordium Gazette .

Price Two ShiUings . TIVTEEK -LESSORS on the . ANALOGY and SYNTAX oftheEXGLISH LANGUAGE , for the use of adult per . sons who have neglected the study of Grammar , By Wh . Hill . Fifth edition * , revised and amended . The Lessons in these works are intended solely for tho use of natives . T hey are divested , therefore , of all those ' hair-breadth distinctions and unnecessary subdivisions in Analogy , which , if at all useful , can only be useful to foreigners . The science of Grammar is disentangled in them from the folds of mysticism which have so long enshrouded it . The absurd and unmeaning technicalities which pervade all other works on Grammar arcexchanged for terms which have a definite and precise meaning , illustrative of the things they represent . The Parts of Speech are arranged on an entirely new principle , founded on a philosophical consideration of the nature of language . TI \ 2 necessary divisions and subdivisions arc rationally accounted for , and the principles of Universal Grammar demonstrated so fully that the meanest capacity may uiidurstand them as clearly as it understands that two aud two make four . In Syntax , the formation of the English Language is cs-CltlSlVClv COllSUlted , Without any unnecessary referunee to Other languages . A majority of tha numerous Rules given in most Grammars are shewn to be little better than a heap of senseless tautology . The necessary Rules are demonstrated upon rational principles , and illustrated by a variety of examples . By the use of the fifteen lessons , and the accompanying exercises , any one may , in a few weeks , acquire a good knowledge of Grammar , without any of the disgusting drudgery which , under tire present system , prevents nine out often from ever acquiring a knowledge of Grammar at nil . , "A competent Grammatical knowledge of our own language is the true basis on which all literature ought to rest . "—Bishop Lowth . " , " Mr . Hill is evidently an original thinker . Itc attacks with ability and success , the existing system of Eng lish Grammar , and points out the absurdities with which it is encumbered . Justly condemning the too frequent practice of making pupils commit portions of Grammar to mc- mory a jtasks , he maintains that the only proper way to > the memory is through the understanding It is i but justice to him to say that , in a few pages , he gives a l more clear and comprehensive view of the structure of t the English language than can be found in some very ( elaborate works . "—Literary Gazette . " Mr . Hill has discharged his task with considerable e ability and no person can peruse his books with any- - thing like attention , without obtaining a clear and sufli- icient estimate ofthe construction and laws of his verna- icular tongue . "—Leeds Times . " A concise philosophical and lucid exposition of the io principles on which tV ' language of Milton and Shak- *• spoare rests . "—Bmdfo d Observer . " It is calculated to give the student a correct idea of of Grammatical construction—of the analogies of the Ian- nguage—and ofthe nature of the various parts of speech . ; h . It is simple , but not mean ; clear , but not diffuse ; and iid there are few works in which the first principles of Gram- mmar are better explained or more ably followed up . " — — York Chronicle . " The method he has adopted to convey his les- cssons is the least repulsive to a learner that wc have yet jet seen , not excepting that of Mr .
