I- CAUTION J THE extraordinary demand for PARR'S' LIFE PILLS has induced several shopkeepers of mean and dishonest principles , to try to impose on the incautious various counterfeits composed of the most pernicious ingredients , merely for the sake of reaping an extra profit , totally regardless of the dreadful consequences which must ensue . Observe , that each Box of tbe genuine Medicine has pasted round it the Government Stamp , on which is engraved these words , PARR'S LIFE PILLS in White letters on a bed ground , none other can be genuine . In no inBtanoe has this invaluable Medicine failed to effect a perfect care where due patience and perseverance has been exercised . Read the following from Mrs . Moxon , York : — York , Sept . 7 , 1841 . " Gentlemen , —We shall feel obliged by yonr repeating the last order for Parr ' s Life Pills , and forwarding immediately by Pickford ' s Rails . Instances of extraordinary cures are continually occur * ring to ub by their agency . One woman who had been reduced almost to the last stage of existence by extreme asthma , was , by taking two or three boxes , restored to health . Another instance is a man who had been confined to his bed by rheumatism for sixteen weeks ; quite incapacitated for walking ; but by simply taking two or three boxes of Parr ' s Life Pills can walk with all tbe activity and freedom of perfect health . I could enumerate many other instances , but these will suffice to prove the value of the Medioine in ameliorating disease and confirming health . " I remain , your obedient Servant , " For M . Moxon , 1 James Bayne . " From Mb . Hollikr , Chemist , Dudley . To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " Dudley , Sept . 14 , 1841 .

" " Tipton , Staffordshire . " I , Joshua Ball , hereby testify , that I bad been dreadfully afflicted with Rheumatic Gout for 17 years , so that I have , at times , kept my bed for months together , and could not get anything to do me good , till I took ' Parr ' s Life Pills , ' which I am very happy to state have nearly restored me to perfect health . As witness my hand , this 11 th day of September , 1841 . "Joshua Ball . " EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF CURE . —Testimonial from Mr . John Jolliffe , Lancer Tavern , Old Haymarket , Liverpool : — " T © the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " Gentlemen , —1 beg to tender my warmest thanks for the great benefit I have derived from your invaluable Medicine . I had for several years been labouring under severe attacks of illness , from difficulty of breathing , accompanied with excruciating pains in the chest ; and although I have been under the care of several eminent medical men , I could obtain no relief . Your celebrated Pills have completely restored me to health ; aud I beg you will make this acknowledgment public , for the benefit of others similarly afflicted . 1 shall be happy to answer inquiries , either made personally , or by letter ( postpaid ) , addressed as above . ' I am , Gentlemen , yours respectfnlly , "JOHN JOLLIFFE . "August 26 , 1841 . " SONNET . To the memory of OLD PAR It , written on the discovery of his last Will and Testament , in which is contained the method of preparing his infallible Medicine , for conquering disease , and prolonging human life . O , venerable Parr , lo , trumpet fame Again calls forth thy long-forgotten name ; Mortal of many years ! how blest the plan Thy mighty secret does reveal to man . From this auspicious hour shall evil cease , Mourning to joy shall turn , —discord to peace . Thy benign remedy to man gives power To lengthen out on earth his " little hour , " Disease to conquer , anguish drive away , And sickly sorrow change to joyous day ; Despair to banish from the dying man A God-like gift ! O do not lightly scan A boon so great , nor wisdom ' s purpose mar : God gave the power—his instrument was Parr . The above lines were written by a Lady near Nottingham , who had been cured of a grievous malady by Parr ' s Life Pills ; gratitude induced her to cause their insertion in the " Nottingham Review , " and other newspapers . " To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " Gentlemen , — Since I undertook the agency of this popular Medicine , I can with truth aver , that it has , to my own knowledge , been a very great blessing to scores of persons in this town and neighbourhood . Indeed , so numerous are the testimonials to the virtues of Parr ' s Pills in the cure of inveterate disease , that many persons who had been quite hopeleas of any relief , have obtained a permanent and perfect cure . To particularise would be useless , the cases are so numerous . One person was cured of a bad leg of fifteen years' duration ; another of Rheumatism of tea years' standing ; others of Asthma , &o . &o . These are among the Cures ; and numerous are the cases of Relief in Bilious and Liver Complaints , Sick Head-ache , Coughs , Colds , and Diseases of the Stomach and Digestive Organs , &o . " From these Faots , more than from any mode of advertising , the sale of the Pills is daily increasing ; every person who has been benefited is anxious to recommend them , and assist his neighbour . —Enclosed is £ 50 , which please send me in Pills by the next coach . " J am , Gentlemen , " Yours repectfully , "Joseph Noble , " Printer , Bookseller , and Stationer . M , Market-place , Hull , Jan . 18 , 1841 . " Important . —Many persons , after learning that so many wonderful cures have been effected by PARR'S LIFE PILLS , have a great desire to procure the medicine which has done so much good . In doing this , however , caution must be observed , as certain individuals , without honour or honesty , are offering a dangerous Bubatitute , instead of the genuine medicine . The proprietors cannot , of course , be accountable for any untoward results that may ensue to those who have been thus imposed upon , but they can point out an effeotual means to prevent further imposition . Purchasers may be sure they have the genuine medioine if they find the words PARR'S LIFE PILLS engraved on the Government Stamp , in white letters on a red ground .

VALUABLE WORKS . Just published , price 2 s . 12 mo . bound in eloth , FIFTEEN LESSONS ON THj ^ ANALOGY AND SYNTAX OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE , for the use of adult persons who have neglected the study of Grammar . BY WILLIAM HILL . The Lessons , in this Work , jure intended solely for the use of natives . They are divested , therefore , of all those haiYs-breadth distinctions and unnecessary subdivisions in Analogy , which , iTat all useful , can only be useful to foreigners . The science of Grammar is disentangled , in this Work from the folds of mysticism which have so long enshrouded it . The absurd and unmeaning technicalities , which pervade all other Works on Grammar , are exchanged for terms which have a definite and preoise 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 , and applicable to all Languages . The necessary Divisions and subdivisions are rationally accounted for ; and the Principles of Universal Grammar demonstrated , so fully that the meanest capacity may understand them as clearly as it understands that two and two make four . In Syntax , the formation of the English Language is exclusively consulted , without any unnecessary ! reference to other Languages . A majority of the I numerous Rules given in most Grammars are shown to be little better tkan a heap of senseless Tautology . The necessary Rules are demonstrated upon rational Principles , and illustrated by a variety of Example . By the Usa of this Book and its accompanying Exercises , any person may , in a few weeks , acquire a good knowledge of Grammar without any of the disgusting drudgery , which , under the present System , prevents nine out of ten from ever acquiring a knowledge of Grammar at all . THE FOLLOWING TESTIMONIALS OF THE PRESS , Selected from u host of similar ones , may convey some idea of the public estimation in which this Worki 3 holden :-" Mr . Hill is evidently an original thinker . He attacks , with ability and success , the existing system of English 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 memory as tasks , he maintains that the only proper way to the memory is through the understanding . . . . It Is but justice to him to say that , in a few pages , he gives a more clear and comprehensive view of the structure of the English language than can be found in some very elaborate works . " —Literary Gazette , Also , Price One Shilling , bound in Cloth , PROGRESSIVE EXERCISES , Selected from the best English Authors , and so arranged as to accord with the Progressive Lessons in the foregoing Work , Br wm . hill . Also , Price Fourpence , THE GRAMMATICAL TEXT BOOK , for the use of Schools ; in which the bare naked principles of Grammar , expressed as concisely as possible , are exhibited for the memory . .

PERRY & Co ., CONSULTING SURGEONS , 44 , Albion Street , Leeds , ( Private Entrance in the Passage , ) and 4 , Great Charles Street , Birmingham , ILLUSTRATED BY EIGHT FINE ENGRAVINGS , THE SILENT FBIEND , A PRACTICAL TREATISE on Venereal and Syphilitic Diseases , in their mild and most alarming forms , shewing the different stages of those deplorable and often fatal disorders , including observations on the baneful effects of Gonorrhoea , Gleets , and Strictures . The Work is embellished with Engravings , representing the * deleterious influence of Mercury on the external appearance of the skin , by eruptions on the head , face , and body ; to which are added very extensive observations on sexual debility , seminal weakness , and impotency , brought on by a delusive habit , all itsattendantaympathies anddangerous consequences considered , with the most approved mode of treatment and cure , without confinement or interruption from business , the whole accompanied by explanatory engravings , with general instructions for the perfect restoration of those who are incapacitated from entering into the holy state of Marriage , by the evil consequences arising from early abuse , or syphilitic infection . : This invaluable Work will be secretly inclosed with each box ot Perry ' s Purifying Specific Pills , ( Price 23 . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and lls . ) and the Cordial Balm of Syriacum ( Price lls . and 33 s . per bottle ) , and is pointed out to suffering humanity as a Silent Friend , to be consulted without exposure , and with assured confidence of success . PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS , Price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and lls . per Box , aro 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 Gonorrhoea , Gleets , Secondary Symptoms , Strictures , Seminal Weakness , Deficiency , and all diseases of the Urinary Passages , without loss of time , confinement , or hindrance from business . They have effected the most surprising cures , 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 above complaint , frequently _ contracted in a moment of inebriety , the eradication is generally completed in a few days . 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 th « business is accomplished . Fatal error ! Thousands are annually either mercurialised 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 result 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 more local affection will be converted into an incurable and fatal malady . What a pity that a young man , the hope of his country aud the darling of his parents , should be snatched from all the prospects and enjoyments of life by the consequences of one unguarded moment , and by a disease which is not , in its own nature , fatal , and which never proves 80 if properly treated . It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to this horrid disease , owing to the unskilfulness of ^ iterate men ; who , by the use of that deadly

As this Disease is one which is likely to be contracted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but , on the contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , whea another may unfortunately be imbibed ; therefore , the practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat each particular case in such a manner as not merely to remove the present attack , but to preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience e » ayail himself of the greatest improvements W modern practice , by being able to distinguish betweei discharges of a specific and of a simple or nuja nature , which can only be made by one in dauy fra ctice , after due consideration of all circumstanaaa . n the same manner at birth , appearances often take place in children , which call for a proper knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , a order to discriminate their real nature , and wqkD may be the means of sowing domestic discord , on «* managed b y the Surgeon with propriety and 8 ip « Patients labouring under this disease , cannot be too oautious into whose hands they commit themselv * The propriety of this remark is abundantly naoi * feated , by the same party frequently passing tM ordeal of several practitioners , before He is fortunate enough to obtain a perfect cure .

MANCHESTER . —The lively , sincere , indnstriouB , sod systematical Chartists of Brown-street , assembled ¦ wry numeronsiy on Sunday evening , the room overflowing with a respectable and . attentive sadienee , to hear the maa after their oirn heirt—the bold defender of tbeir and his own rights—a credit to himself and his < Bderr-the tyrant ' s foe , the expose * of . clap-trap and humbug , and Jhe friend of the millions—Mr . Junes Xetch . A fustian jacket -was called to the chair , irfco , » fter a few remarks , introduced , in a flittering manner , the above " sharp-biting Leech" to addrosajthe meeting , He commenced by analysing the speech made by C » L
Thompson on Friday evening , answering him point by point ^ to the seeming eoncarrence of his hearers , and in an edifying and instructing mannec To give all his points would be impossible , without taking up too sraeh room , which would be an injustice to tfee rest of oar correspondents . Colonel Thompson said there was a principle of selfishness in man , with which he ( Mr . leach * perfectly agreed , and which , be contended , famished one of the most cogent reasons why the power should be extended to eTery man who performed oaefol service to society , to protect himself against the influence of capital , and Vhe grasping , grinding , avarice and selfishness of his fellow ™» n . Selfishness was an
inherent principle of human nature . It was that which more or less propelled the tenons of all living belDgs . Bat again , there was another principle , rii justice , and -which should net be lost sight of—the power should be placed in the majority to enforce it—to protect the labourer and his labour against tie capitalist and his capital—to protect the weak against tee strong—to put down that most atrocious and unbearable system of tyranny and cruelty which was so prevalent , and to ensure goodiood , good ¦ clothing and lodging to the producing milliens—to do away with the phenomena which existed , which left the most useful class of society at the mere ; of the worthless , and that while the former - » ere cooped » p in the workshops and the noxious , ¦ poisonous , and i > ody-destroying factories ; they were
sabject to the insults and the iron-heeled despotism of the latter . Society CmM the s > -eakBr ) w * s * oeawied on it thepr&-ae&t time , that vice wai -virtue , and virtue vice . All jtiiemes were retorted to for . the purpose of throwing cue portion of the working oiasats into the streets and bringing the others lower in their wages , so that they -were scarcely able to obtain an honest livelihood . It was the selfish principle assisted by the power of the law which protected property and left labour unprotected—that caused the masters to take the money from the operatives and enabled them to feed and exercise those . speculating , gambling , and unbearing propensities , which allowed and stimulated them to go into the factory and take as much as 8 s . out of 16 s . Mr . Leach than related what a working man would have to pay
even allowing him to get the former sum , and argued that the redaction in the wsges w&s not all which operated injuriously to the interest of the working man , for whilst his wages were reduced , his rents , leys , food and clothing were stationary , so that he would have to pay as much for his snides out of 8 s ., as be would when getting double the earn . Hence it was , that thousands -were brought from cottage bouses into oellars , to be Pressed in rags and only half-fed . The tyrants , the cotton lords , the property cliuwvt , bad formed , a fool unprincipled and diabolical conspiracy , and having a power « ver the law , they had carried their nefarious -designs into execution and sneered and laughed to scorn the working people whilst they were plundering them . He denied the assertion that the interests of the middle
classes and the working classes were identical . Such as bikers , publie&ns , and other small shopkeepers who stood behind the counter were somewhat identified , because the better the wages of the working classes , fee J&rger were their profits . If then they depended upon the wages of the operatives , they must fall in the same proportion . Though snch was the ease , this class who had xiaen out of the ranks of the working classes , were generally speaking , the most haughty and ambitions , and the inveterate enemies to liberty . These who but a short time bad been lifted out © f the peddle hide were the greatest tyrant ? . After referring to the Corn Iaw Repeal cry , Mr . Leach next adverted to the fuestion of machinery , and grappled powerfully with Colonel Thompson's observations .
The speaker next she-wed bow property had ennaneed in value , and referred to the property of Lord Egerton , wno cot a private act passed , which would . benefit him no lea than £ 10 . 000 by bis coal mines , and -were it not for that act they , tha working classes , conld have had the coal * laid at their door , twopence per hundred cheaper than they were paying . One man eould get an act passed for his own cenefit , ¦ while the working classes might pray and petition seven years , sad no notice be taken of them . He then referred to the taxes of the country , and was of opinion , that if fiiey -were to be taken off altogether , under present
cireamstaoces , the millions would not be benefitted . The usurers wouM receive the benefit . He instanced the Stociport masters , who wanted to take 103 . from the spinners , and showed its evil consequences . Mr . Leach then combatted the fallacies of the repealers , who said liuLt the Chutists should assist for a repeal , ' because -wages would come down whether or not . - The Corn Xaw repealers were continually putting arguments into tbe Chartists' mouths , they made use of and then refuted them , and called them the arguments of the Chartists . Mr . Leach , ia conclusion , hoped that every working man would attend the meeting on Tuesday evening , and sot leave it till the business was over . Let there be
no hissmg , shouting , or bawling . If tire Corn Law Eepealers would hear the Chartists peaceably , why , then , tbe Chartists must hear them . He bad evaded tbeir meetings of late , because they had been convened in an underhand manner . But for the future the Chartists mast be present and test the intelligent working men of Manchester as to whether they deem machinery a blessing as at present arranged , or a curse . There should be two chairmen and an umpire to decide betwixt them . Before he sat down , he would wish to impress one thing upon thtir minds , which was , that until the working dasses were in a position to claim their rights , they would remain as they were—slaves ; and when they « sked for them they would ( as they were then ) be met with a satirical grin of despotism . Mr . Leach then
sat down , after delivering an excellent lecture , for ¦ which he was applauded while speaking and -at the eoHclusion . Mr . Whitaker then rose and moved the following resolution -. — " That the best thanks of this meeting are due , and are hsreby given , to Messrs . Christopher Doyle , James Leach , and Henry Vincent , far the spirited and manly manner in which they exposed the fallacies and deceit of the anti-Corn Liw party on Friday evening last in the Corn ' Exchange , sod the -talented manner in which they advocated and defended those just and natural Sights contained in the People ' s Charter ; and this meeting further pledges itself they will never agitate for anything short of a full measure of justice for the whole people , and that they are convinced can never
be obtained until the People' Charter becomes the law of tile land . " The speaker said the time had arrived ¦ when neutrality was a crime -, when they witnessed file distress on every side , it was the duty of every individual to come forurard and declare his opinion . He perfectly agreed with the resolution ; he believed that justice would never be done to the working classes until they were in a position to do justice to themselves . At toe meeting on Friday night , tbey would not let Doyle speak until it was carried by a show of hands , and } &r . WatEEns threatened that if the Chartists opposed them be and his party would attend every meeting for the purpose of opposing them . He was disgusted with the Corn Law party in bringing a resolution forward condemning Sir Robert for proroguing the House , and then at the end of it to attach all the misery to the
operation of the Corn laws , wbicn was only an effect of class legislation . He was proud to see the men step forward as they did on that occasion , in vindication of of truth . It was the dnty of the working men to support them . Had they" been middle class men they would hare received the * t »* riVg of the working men , « nd he could see no reason wny they out of their own onto -were not equally as deserving . He . was glad to -witness the progress of the Temperance cause , and of Chartism in Ireland . After other remarks he sat down by moving the resolution . Mr . Clark , of Manchester , in a neat and suitable speech , seconded It Tea Chairman rose and put it , and was carried unanimously- Mr Xeach made a short speech in jeply , in -which he ex posed the trickery of Cobden and * his improved machi aery . Tbe meeting then separated .

O'Connor , ( who arrived from Greenock about four o ' clock , ) was crammed in every corner where it was possible that a human being could find admittance ; and hundreds on hundreds had to go away without having heard or Been him . Mr . William Thomason , of the Vale of Leven , the people ' s representative . for Paisley , was appointed to the chair , and opened the meeting with an excellent speech of considerable length . Two addresses ,
one from the Chartists of Eldershe , and the other from those of Paisley , were then read and presented to Mr . O'Connor , who was then introduced to the meeting , and spoke at great length in his usual able manner . He showed up the absnrdities of the anti-Chartist Corn Law repealers , most effectively throwing the ridicule npon them which they have so well deserved . He spoke at great length of the sufferings of the working population , and of the best remedy , the one he has always unflinchingly advocated , political enfranchisement—showed most convincingly that no emigration was required if the land wa 3 properly distributed—went at considerable length into the absnrd moral-force question , and proved that it was now happily dead and buried—and
ended ; in his accustomed masterly manner , repeating his well-known motto , ** Uuiversal Suffrage and no Surrender . " It is needless to say he was vehemently applauded throughout . A social meeting had also been called , to be held in the Exchange Room , Nossstreet , admission by tickets , threepence each . This place , which is capable of holding 1000 persons standing and sitting , was also crowded to excess , indeed whole crowds had to go away , unable to gain admission .

Thomason was chairman here also , and commenced the business by a speech of considerable length . Mr . James Lee , farmer , of Stanleygreen , was the croupier , and acquitted himself in a
most praiseworthy mannner . Ail the toasts usual on these occasions were drunk and appropriately responded to . Mr . O'Connor spoke for more than two hours , and was , as he richly deserved , repeatedly interrupted with the most deafening cheers . A number of patriotic and other songs and recitations were given , aad altogether the evening was passed with a groat deal of instruction and amusement . The audience wa 3 decent and orderly , about a fourth or fifth of them being females . The only interruption which took place was given by one of the " intelligent classes" —a drnnken lawyer who had to be carried out . With the customary votes of thanks the meeting broke up about twelve o'clock , having enjoyed themselves for three hours and a half , or thereabout . —Scottish Patriot .
