The PRECEPTOR , also , who holds temporarily , it least the relation and responsibility of a parent , vill , by persuing this work , be directed , and very nuch assisted in investigation and detecting the too iften concealed practices so often introduced into chools , whereby the health and ultimately the lives if his pupils are sure to be compromised , unless the : vil be checked in proper time .

      OLD PARR'S LAST WILL & TESTAMENT . A MOST singular document has reoently been brought to light , and is now in the possession of the Rev . Wm . Artheb , of East Peckham : it appears to have been written by the celebrated OLD PARR , who attained the almost incredible age of one hundred and fifty-two years , and who left this document to a relation : it is written on parchment , and although upwards of two hundred years old is , in an excellent state of preservation . The following is an extract : — "These do oertifie yt ye undermentioned is ye method of preserving health , which by ye grace of Almighty God has caused me to attain to my miraculous old age . Albeit in my youth I was afflicted with ye Bloody Flux and King ' s Evil , but which all loft me by using some dayesye herbs as herein written . " Here follows the receipt : — " Moreover , I bequeath to my second Great Grandson ye method I employ for preparing ye medicament . Given this day , and in ye 147 th year of my ago , " Thomas Pabr . " " Winnington , Salop , Januarie 17 th , 1630 . " This singular character was the oldest man , with one exception , that England ever produced : his biographer says , " the days of his youth , according to his own account , was a series of long and painful illness , but that by some secret means he cured himself , and was stronger than most men when he married his first wife , which he did at the advanced age of eighty-eight ; he again married at the amazing ago of one hundred and twenty ; at one hundred and thirty h « used to thresh corn , and do any laborious work . He had seen tea Kings and Queens of England , s Parr spent muoh of his time in the study of the vegetable world , and has fortunately left behind him , though long hid to the world , the valuable fruits of his labours . Besides the valuable receipt from which Parr ' s Pills are now compounded , there are several MSS ., pieces written in his old quaint style , on the value of health ; his opinions , though somewhat differently expressed , were that the varieties of clime and modes of living make but little difference to our period of existence—that the laws of nature are simple and easily understood , but they require perfect obedience . ' The Clergyman who holds the valuable document abovementioned . has , by the assistance of a very able chemist and physician , caused the receipt of Old Peru ' s to be made into Pills , and although only a space of eighteen months have elapsed since the trial , upwards of seven hundred cures have been effected ; more than one-half Were considered incurable ; and what iB more remarkable , cases which possess the very opposites as regards outward symptoms : the balsamic and invigorating effects on the blood produced by these medicines is perfeotly miraculous ; many who have kept their beds for years have been so speedily re-invigorated with an infusion of new blood , and consequently of new life and strength , that their re-appearance amongst their fellow-beings , who had long given them up as incurable , is looked upon as tho greatest of the many great wonders of this miraculous age . Tho whole of our system is built up from the blood—nerves , sinews , muscles , and even solid bone ; this being the case , the grand object is to keep this precious fluid ( the blood ) in a pure and healthy state , for without thiB purity disease will show itself in some way or other . Cases of every description have all been cured simply by the use of Parr ' s Life Pills , thus showing that what has been considered different disorders , and requiring different treatment , all originated in the same cause , and can be cured by one uniform treatment . Although powerful in conquering disease , they are as pure and harmless as new milk , and may be administered with confidence to the invalid , however weakly from long ill health , who will soon enjoy those delightful symptoms of a return to strong health , namely , good appetite , sound sleep , and an increase of animal spirits . To have produced a medicine so benign and mild in its operation and effects , and yet so effectual in searching out and curing disease of however long standing , exhibits on the part of Old Parr deep research and a thorough knowledge of his subject .

PERRY and CO ., Surgeons , No . 44 , Albion-street , Leeds , Private Entrance in the Passage ; and 4 / Great Charles-street , Birmingham , and given gratis with each Box of PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS , price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d M and lls . per Box , containing a full description of the above complaint , illustrated by Engravings , shewing the different stages of this deplorable and often fatal disease , as well as the dreadful effects of Mercury , accompanied with plain and practical directions for an effectual and speedy cure , with ease , secrecy , and safety , without the aid of Medical assistance . Perry ' s Purifying Specific Pills , price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ^ , and lls . ( Observe none are genuine without the signature of R . and L . Perry on the side of each wrapper ) whioh are well known throughout Europe and America , to be the most-certain and effectual cure ever discovered for every Stage and Symptom ^ of the Venereal Disease , in both sexes , including Gonorrhaja , Gleets , Secondary Symptoms , Strictures , Seminal Weakness , Deficiency , and Diseases of the Urinary Passages , without loss of time , confinement , or hindrance from business . They have effected the most surprisingcures , not only in-recent and severe cases , but when salivation and all other means have failed ; and when an early application is made to these Pills , for the cure of the Venereal Disease , frequently contracted in a moment of inebriety , the eradication is generally completed . in a few days ; and in the more advanced and inveterate stages of venereal infection , characterised by a variety of painful and distressing symptoms , a perseverance in the Specific Pills , in which Messrs . Perry have happily compressed the most purifying aud healing virtues of the principal part of the " vegetable system , and which is of the utmost importa&ce to those afflicted with Scorbutic affections . Eruptions on any part of the body , Ulcerations , Scrofulous or Venereal taint ; being justly calculated to cleanse the blood from all foulness , counteract every morbid affection , and restore weak and emaciated constitutions to pristine health and vigour . The rash , indiscriminate , and unqualified use of Mercury , Has been productive of infinite mischief ; under , the notion of its being an antidote for a certain disease , the untutored think they have only to saturate their system with Mercury , and the business is accomplished . Fatal error ! Thousands are annually either mercurialized out of existence , or their constitutions so broken , and the functions of nature so impaired , as to render the residue of life miserable . The disorder We have in view owes its fatal results either to neglect or ignorance . In the first stage it . is always local , and easy to be extinguished by attending to the directions fully pointed out in the Treatise , without the smallest injury to the constitution ; but when neglected , or improperly treated , a mere local affection will be converted into an incurable : and fatal malady . What a pity that a young man , the hope of his country and the darling of his parents , should be snatched from all the prospects and enjoymetns of life by the consequences of one unguarded moment , and by adisease which is not in its own * nature fatal , and whioh never proves so if properly treated . It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victim , to this horrid disease owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men , who , by the use of that deadly poison , mercury , ruin the constitution , cause ulceratipn , blotches On the head , face , and body , dimness of sight , noise in the ears , deafness , obstinate gleets , nodes on the shin bone , ulcerated sore throats , diseased nose , with nocturnal pains in the head ana limbs , till-at length' ¦*¦ general debility of the constitution ensues , and a melancholy death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings . Messjs . Perry and Co ., Surgeons , may be consulted , as usual , at No . 44 , Albion-street . Leeds , Private Entrance in the Pass ^ pa ; ana No . 4 , Great Charles-street , Birmingham . Only one personal visit is required from a country patient ' to enable Messrs . Perry and Co . to give such advice as will be the means of effecting a per * manent and effectual cure , after all other means have proved ineffectual . Letters for advice must be post-paid , and contain the usual fee of one pound . - THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM Is now universally established as a remedy of great efficacy .

      ADVICE . MR . WILKINSON , SURGEON , HAVING devoted his Studies for many Years to the successful Treatment of the VENEREAL DISEASE , in all its various Forms ; also , to the frightfnl consequences resulting from that destruc tive practice , " Self Abuse , " may be personally consulted from Nine in the Morning till Ten at Night . and on i Sundays till Two , at 13 , TRAFALGAR STREET , NORTH STREET , Leeds , and every Thursday , at No . 4 , GEORGE STREET , Bradford , from Ten till Five . In recent oases a perfect Cure is completed within a Week , or no Charge made for Medicine after that period , and Country Patients , by making only one personal visit , will receive such Advice and Medioines that will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual Cure , when all other means have failed . Having successfully acquired a thorough knowledge of all the-various stages of that insidious and ; oo often fatal disease , and the deplorable results , as well as frequent loss of life , which often occurs through displayed ignorance , by those unqualified , having but very little knowledge either of the disorder , or component principles of Medicine ; thuB the system becomes tainted , the whole mass of blood impure , and the Constitution ruined with Poison , producing Ulcers and Eruptions on various parts of the body , frightful to be seen—often closely resembling and mistaken for diseases of a less painful character . Mr . W ., as a Member of the Medical Profession , and from the peculiar nature of his practice , can , with the utmost confidence , even to the most timid , offer hope , vigour , and perfect health . What a grief for a young person , in the very prime of life , te be snatched out of time , and from all the enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at first , and which never proves fatal if properly treated , as all its fatal results are owing either to neglect o * ignorance . Mr . W . ' s invariable rule is to give a Card to each of his Patients as a guarantee for Cure , which he pledges himself to performs or to return his Fee . For the Accommodation of those who cannot conveniently consult Mr . W . personally , they maj obtain his Purifying Drops , Price 4 s . 6 d ., at any oi the following Agents , with Printed directions so plain , that Patients of either Sex may Cure themselves , without even the knowledge of a bedfellow .

      The fear of the many , as frequently felt , is a most capricious apprehension . It overlooks real dangers , and dwells upon perils the most chimerical . Such , for instance , is the notion of a division of the property of the country amongst the population . No body of representatives chosen by a suffrage absolutely universal , and tied down bj tbe strictest system of mere delega tion , would be the least likely to entertain any such proposition for a moment It neTer was attempted in the French National Convention , when all the checks of representation were destroyed , and the multitude of Paris exercised direct authority over the nominal Legislature . Politicians of the operative classes are often irritated , and it is not wonderful they should be at the glaring inequalities of property , the means by -which

      tbe wealthy augment their wealth , and the scanty remuneration of those who toil ; but the language of this irritation is very poor evidence « f a design of practical spoliation . In fact , the agricultural class has -given as much—we might say more—of this species of " evidence of hostility to the rights o property than the operative Chartists . It has been common for farmers , and their pretended patrons , to state in their public speeches , and even to affirm in formal resolutions , that if the Com L&'vs be repealed the public creditor must not be paid . Yet it would be very silly on that account to propose that connection with agriculture should constitute a disfranchistment In this ( country wealth has

      nothing to fear from democracy . Tbe rea ] graund fur fear of the many is , not what they -would do with votes , but what they may be tempted to do as an alienated and irritated class ; and even of that the apprehension is often misdirected . It is not insurrection , or organized violence , that we need stand in dread of . It is of those form * of crime -which ignorance , desperation , and the sense of injury may stimulate , and the sympathy of the proscribed shelter . It is of the destruction of the harmony of society , and its demoralization hy class feuds that cripple society for all the best purposes of its existence . Here is the danger ; and it can only be averted by the safety-valve of a more extended representation .

      In the present state of intelligence it is absurd to suppose that the existence of a large slave class can be safely perpetuated . Notwithstanding every Tory obstruction to the education of the people , the spread of education is very tax beyond the extent of the franchise . The plea of ignorance is preposterous for the exclusion of the authors of many publications which have issued from the working men . Nor would the evil be the greatest that can be imagined if the dread of investing ignorance -with political existence should prove a stimulant to popular instruction . Should the attempt to give vigour to the spirit of the Referin Bill by expanding its forms be joined in by the Ktfjnners of Ireland , the useless and mischieveus agitation of Repeal ¦ will receive its death-blow . Consiuering the real eff . et cf that agitation to be a diversion in f . ivour of Toryism , we should rt-joice in its being thus superseded by the struggle for extensive and common good to the whole United Kingdom . —Chronicle .

      —* - ~~~— ? ——SUBJECTS FuR BLASPHEMING PROSECUTIONS . The Government having of late evinced a disposition for the revival of prosecutions for blasphemy , we bfg , wi : h all deference to the powers that be , to suggest a few dies in ¦ which the talents of the Attornty-Oeneral may be usefully exercised , and the interests of the Statereligion very properly vindicated : — "Wo beg to submit , then , to the Attorney-General , whether ii is not an impiety , of the yery first water , ia the Bishops to prttend that the Established Church is founded on the early Church of the Apostles and founders of Christianity , when the latter were notoriously hardly worked and poorly off ; whereas the former feed superbly , and , thanks to modern Christianity , are enabled to live in clover all their days ? and if an impiety , is it not a fit subject for prosecution ?

      Farther , ought not the law to be invoked to put down Each a swindle as the pretence so industriously put forward , that the said Establishment is the " poor man's Church , '" when all the best places in it are monopolised -by the rich ? And is it not an aggravation of the fact " , to htar the doctrine la ' ui down by rosy-gilled rectors and corpulent " prelates to the " poor people" in the aisles , in the teeth of everything tbey &ee above and axoucd them ? Again , would there be any harm in launching an indictmtnt against the Bishop ef Exeter for his numerous and flagrant offences against the spirit of Christianity—both in his speeches in the House of Lords , an . l his addresses to the clergy ? To direct the terrors of the law against minor offenders , and let a sinner of such in gnitude as this escape , seems to us in the highest decree injurious to the spread uf true religion—Philpotts , as everybody knows , is mere gammon—and for that reason alone such partial proceedings ought to be enersetically protested against .

      Whilst on the subject of Phr . potts , let us , however , not pass over those firebrands of a similar stamp , Messrs . O'Sullivan and M'Xeil If anybody ought to be punished for blasphemy , those gentlemen deserve a double dose , since they have done more to excite bail feelings and hatred between contending sects of religionists than any other two persons in her Majesty ' s dominions . Prosecute them , we say , then , and let them sre how they like it ; and since they are constantly urging the necessity of tyrannous restrictions on Catholics , they would be then in a better condition for judging of their fitaess for themselves .

      Talting © f blaphemy , too , we are reminded of the Irish Church ! Is it not vastly to the scandal of religion that a Protestant Chutch should be " quartered " on a conntry , of which the large majority are Catholics ? Th _ - process of blood-sucking the latter is , we admit , lesi tormenting than formerly ; bat whether a farthing less is grasped by the " hard hands" of Protestant parseus , is extremely doubtful . It is assuredly Kla 3 pheinous to talk of such an Establishment being necessary to keep up a due sense of religion—though we must allow that it wouM be difficult to point ou : the precise persons for prosecution , uuless it were the -whole " Irish Church ;" very few , we are sure , would regret to Bee it " cast " altogether .

      What , moreover , can be a fitter subject of prosecution thzn tbe position laid down in sundry irreligious Tory journals , that tbe proper cure for Chartism and other miseries , in Wales and elsewhere , is Mora Church ' : " Is it not a most blasphemous imputation on the Bishops to imagine that they would not bs most ready and ¦ willing to remedy the evil by providing a plentiful supply cf Church on the instant , and cramming it down the throats of the " natives , " if necessary , instead of waiting for an insurrection ? We would have every one prosecuted who would asasert that a Bishop is not willing to provide plenty of Church for einpty stomachs .

      Lastly , how can the Attorney-General answer it to his conscience , to allow the law to lay idle in the case of poor half-starvtd curates , who , it ia to be feared , must be tempted sometimes to " blasph- n ; 5 " dreadfully against their spiritual superiors , on account of the misera "' - Ifc pay tbey in general receive ? On second thoughts , however , we should be willing to have such offences , from such persons , looked upon with compassionate forbearance ; for , however much to be deprecated , a little blaspkemy , unde ; the circumstances , is but too natural , and carries therefore , in a great measure , its excuse along "with it . —Satirist .
