MEDICAL APYICE , Mil . WILKIK SON , SURGEON , No . 13 , Trafalgar-street , NortH-street ; Leeds , H AVING devoted his Studies exclusively ; for . many years to the Diseases of the Generative System , in their mild and most alarming Forms , aud to the successful treatment of Nervous and Sexual Debility , arising from inordinate , excess , may be Personally Consulted from Nine in-the Morning till Ten at Night , and on Sundays from Nine till Two , at his Residence , No .-13 , Trafalgar-street , Northatreet , Leeds , and every Thursday at No . 4 , Georgestreet , Bradford . In recent pases a perfect Cure is completed within % Week , or no Charge made for Medicine after that period , and Country Patients , by making only one personal visit , will receive such Advice and Medicines that will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual Cure , when all other means have failed . A complete knowledge of the symptoms and treatment of these insidious and dangerous diseases can only be acquired by those who , in addition to experience , have previously gone through a regular course of Medioal Instruction ; and it cannot be too strongly impressed on the minds of those who have unfortunately contracted any of these complaints , that hundreds fall victims in consequence of the immoderate use of Mercury , and irritating Medicines , administered by illiterate men , who , owing to a total ignorance of the general Principles of Medicine , ruin the constitution , causing Ulcerated Sore Throat , diseased Nose , and Secondary Symptoms of a most alarming character . In these distressing Cases , M r . W . can with confidence offer , as a regular Member of the Medical Profession , a safe and speedy restoration to Bound and vigorous health . IMPORTANT CURE . Mn . Wilkinson . —Sir , Having bad the misfortune , about feur years since , to contract a long-to-be-lamented , most destructive complaint , which no doubt would have proved fatal ere now , had it not been for your invaluable Drops , which I can safely say have saved my constitution from utter destruction , I have been under several experienced practitioners , and have been apparently well for a short time , but ever experienced a relapse , which evidently resulted from patched-up and improper treatment , or some secret lurking in the frame which was never rooted . With great reluctance I was advised by a friend to apply to you . At that time I was afflicted with ulcerated sores in my mouth , horrible taste and bad smell , blotches on different parts of my body , with great pain and swellings in the bones , particularly my legs , with hard lumps on my shins , which I am now satisfied would soon have proved fatal . After taking your Drops for a few weeks , my sores assumed a healing disposition , my taste and smell got gradually better , my pains entirely left me , and 1 have increased in both strength , health , and spirits , and now without fear ol ' any return of my complaint . Being convinced there are numbers of my fellowcreatures similarly afflicted , and for their good , I request you will publish this in the paper , only be so good aa to omit my name . Yours , respectfully , C . B . Leeds , October 4 , 1838 . Mr . W . is to be Consulted every Day at his Residence ; on Sundays from Nine till Two ; and for the accommodation of those of either Sex , where distance or timidity renders a personal visit a matter of difficulty , they may obtain his Purifying Drops , price 4 s . 6 d ., at any of the following Agents , with Printed Directions , so plain that Patients of either Sex may Cure themselves , without even the knowledge of a bed-fellow .

Fielden for
presentation , who has this day , by post , informed ns , that he has presented and supported it , and says , that he wishes that every tawn in the kingdom would petition against it , as the Honse is going into Committee on it on March the 8 th . Sir , I am persuaded that if moans were adopted similar to those taken by our friend , that a . u immense number of petitions might be poured into the House from the agricultural districts , which would , perhapB , have more weight thaxi coming from manufactur ing districts . We coald get a great number from our own vicinity had we time aud the means ; the country people want leaders . "

WARRIN'GTGN . —Judging from a communication which we have received , wo suppose the cause to be getting well on hero . . , BIWTON . — ( Staffordshire )—Public Meeting and Tea Part ? . —a public mseting was held in the large room ot the ^ 3 ird-in-Hand Inn , Bilston , on Monday last , te -which Mr . George White waa invited . SaTeral friends from WolTerhampton attended and assisted in tbe business . At five o'clock the room was well filled , when tbe business commenced by Mr . Moggt of Wolverhampton , being unanimously called to tbe chair . He said that the present meeting was called for tbe purpose of forming a National Charter Association in the important and populous town of Bilston . The time had sow arrived when it became
tbe imperative duty of all real Chartists to rganiaa . He , therefore , hoped that tbe men and women of Bilston would do their duty ; as a tea party and ball ¦ was also to be held on this occasion , and as iheir friends , White and Taylor , were present , he would oonclude by introducing tbe lecturer for the district , Mr . Dean Taylor . The worthy and talented lecturer then proceeded at some length , and , with bis usual energetic eloquence , to lay bare the present unjust system , exposed in an able manner the hypocrisy of pretended Christians , and delivered a long tirade of invective against the parsons who fleece their flocks , instead of protecting them . He denounced their hollow deception in continually preaching about the soul , when the bodies of thousands were falling into
premature decay , through want of the common nscessaries of life ; and concluded his address amid hearty cheers . The Chairman then rose to introduce Mr . Cteo . White . He said he need say very little with regard to him , as he was already well-known to the Chartists , as one of those who bai suffered imprisonment for his principles . He felt great pleasure in introducing him to the meeting . Mr . White , on making bis appearance , was heartily greeted by tbe meeting . He addressed them as fellow-sufferers and fellovr-slaves As his worthy friend , Taylor , bad given them an abla address on spiritual things , he would turn bis attention to the temporal side of the question , and endeavour to give a good sad substantial reason , why every one then present should be a member of
tbe National Charter Association . He then went on to shew the manner in which the working classes of this country were robbed of the fruits of their industry , by and under a protest of law , which laws were forced on them by men who did no manner of work , and whose whole lives were spent in the invention of new modi g of torturing the useful portion of society . He then explained the power which tbe working classes possessed to rid themselves of the intolerable grievance , and pointed out the uselessness of expecting men who were living by the rottenness of the system to give their cordial assistance in gaining the Charter . He maintained that nil working men , who stood aloof from the present movement , -were the real tyrants of SOCittty , as it was through their culpable neglect and apathy
that tyranny had its existence . He continued for a while to shew the necessity of a firm and determined union amongst the people , and sat down repeatedly cht-ered . At eight o'clock tea was served up in excellent . style , aud did great credit to tbe females engaged in that part of the business ; after which dancing commenced , and was kepi np for an hour with great glee and spirit , the gentlemen from Wolverhampton taking an active part At this stage of the proceedings , a highly intelligent female , named Langston , arose aud addr&ssed the company in a neat and exceedingly clever manner , shewing thorn tho necessity of discontinuing the ball , for the purpose of allowing those who had not bten thete at the opening of the proceedings , au opportunity of tearing Messrs . White and Taylor .
This was assented to by tha meeting . Mr . White then addressed tue females on the benefits that would accrue to them by a good system of government being tstablished , and showed them many reasons why females shonld take an interest in the present struggle for freedom . Mr . Dean Taylor also addressed the meeting in an animated speech , &nd was applauded by tbe meeting . A vote of thanks was then given to Mr . Mogg , for his conduct in tbe chair , to which he replied in an appropriate manner . Three cheers were given for the Charter , three for Feargus O'Connor , three for Frost , Williams , and Jones , and three for the incarcerated Chartists ; after which upwards of thirty
members were enrolled iu the National Charter Association . Several young O'Connor ' s were ha id up in the meeting , their mothers declaring their determination to go to York on tbe day of Mr . O'Connor ' s liberation . Dancing then commenced , and was kept np for the nmainder of the evening . The Chartist National Antnim was sung at the conclusion , aud tbe company retired delighted with the proceedings . It is confidently expected that these districts will , ere long , occupy a proud position in freedom ' s ranks . The people of Staffordshire are well pleased with the plin of organisation laid down by the National Charter Association .
BIRlffraGHABI . —Chartist Tea Party am > Ball . —The Comiuktee for conducting this entertainment aro busily eagagtd providing for tbe comfort of those who may attend ; as a great portion of tbt : tickets are disposed of , it was determined to place thu remainder in the hands of Mr . Guest , Steelbouse Lane ; the Committee , ttmvef ^ re , request those who intend purchasing to do so tariy on Monday , in order to prevent confusioo . Gv . eat Public Meeting . —As tbe objections which
have been held by several iu this town regarding the legality of the Nutioaal Charter Association , have been removed by the delegate meeting at Manchester , it has been determined to hold a public meeting at Holloway Head , on Monday next , the chair to be taken at twelve o ' clock , when it is hoped ail real Chartists will attend . It is tha determination of the Council to resign their places at tbe meeting , in order that no obstacle shall exist to cause disunion or animosity ; Now or never . Those who love freedom vriil attend , and none but slaves anU sots will stay away .
Those places who have not sent their quota of the lecturer ' s expences , are requested to do so immediately , or they cannot have bis services . Diiect to Mr . Barratt , printer , 'Whittle-street .

OLD PARR'S SECRET OF LOKG LIFE DISCOVERED . A MOST singular document has recently been brought to Tight , and is now in the possession of the Rev . Wh . Arther , of East Pecknam : it appears to have been written by the celeorated OLD PARR , who attained tho almost incredible age of one hundred aud 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 certifie yt ye undermentioned is ye method of preserving health , which by ye grace oi Almighty Gud has caused me to attain to my miraculoub old age . Albeit in my youth I was aiHicted with ye Bloody Flux and King's EviJ , but which all left me by using some dayes ye herbs as herein written . " Here follows the receipt : — " Moreover , I bequeath to my Becond Great Grandson ye method I employ for preparing ye medicament . Given this day , and in ye 147 th year of my age , " Thomas Pajhu " " Winnington , Salop , Januarie 17 th , 1630 . "
This singular character was the oldest man , with one exception , that Englaud over produced : his biographer says , " the days of his youth , according to his own account , was a scries of loug aud painful illness , but that by some secret means he cured himself , and was stronger than mo&t men whoa he married his first wife , which he did at the advanced ago of eighty-eight ; he again married at the amazing a # o of one hundred and twenty ; at one hundred and thirty he used to thresh corn , and do any laborious work . He had seen ten Kings and Queens of England .
Tho Clorgyman who holds the valuable document abovemi ntioiitid , has , by the assistance of a very able chomist and physician , caused the receipt ol Old Parr's co bo made into Pills , and- although only a Hpaco of eighteen months have elapsed since the uial , upwards of scvou hundred cures have been oiiected ; more than one-half were considered incurable ; and what is more remarkable , cases which possess the very opposites as regards outward syniutoiun : the balsamic and invigorating effects oa the bioou produced by theso medicines is pevfeotly miraculous ; many who have kept their beds for
years have beeu eo speedily re-mvigoTated with » u 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 the greatest of the many groat wonders of this miraculous age . The whole of our system is built up from tho blood—nerves , sinews , muscles , and even solid bone ; thia beiu <» the case , the grand object is co keep this precious iluid ( ihe blood ) in a pure and healthy state , for without this purity disease will show itself-in some way or other .
Cases of every description have all boon cured simply by the use of Paiui ' s Life Pu . t . s ; thus showing that what has been considered different disorders , and requiring diifercnt treatment , all originated in ( he same cause , and cau 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 havo produced a medicine so benign and mild in its operation and effects , and yes eo effectual in searching out and curiug disease of however long standing , exhibits on the pare of Old Parr deep research and a thorough knowledgeof his subject .
Those who havo been the instruments of restoring this long-lost secret to tho world , feel confident , when they make the assertion—that none need despair , that if only a fair trial be given , the result will be a restoration to health and happiness . " Thus shall their humble labours merit praise , And future Pairs be blest with honour'd days . " The following letter will shew the high estimation these invaluable medicines are held in the city of Lincoln : — " To the * Rev . W . Arther , and Proprietors of Parr ' s Liie Pills .
"Rev . Sm , and Gentlemen , —I beg to inform you , several persons have acknowledged to ma they never experienced bo much improvement in their health , since they took Old Parr ' s Pills ; in particular , a lacy , who said she never knew what it was to be without pain in her head ; but , after taking one box , sho has been free from it ever since . " You must , I am sure , from tho great demand for the pills at my shop , think they are considered here of great value , and 1 have no doubt many more will be-sold when they are generally known ; in fact , fiomo folk begin now to think they will have no occasion to make their willa for the next 90 or 100 years to come . " I am , your obedient servant , " James Dbukt . " 224 , neat the Stone Bow , Lincoln , * ' September 28 , 1840 . "
Similar letters are daily received from all parts oi the Empire , stating the happy effects of Old Paw's Remedy . Mr . Noble , Bookseller , of Hull , in a letter of Jan-15 , 1841 , says , " The character of the pills stands vt . ry high ; I am continually hearing of their good effects , " &c . &c .
