The Twenty-ypuMb . Testimony in favoiir of tliis ex-• traordinaryMedicine : ¦—; ; v ** Liverpool ; Feb . 20 * 1841 . " Dear Sir , —It is with feelings of the toost lively gratitude that I convey to you a knowledge of the cure thai I- have obtained by the use of your Hollaud ' s Balsam of Spruce . I feel it incumbent upon me to make you acquainted with my case ; though unwilling to put myself forward , yet I conceive it a duty due to society that my teatimouy should be added to those which I perceive you have inolosed with your medicine . My case was one of that numerous class which unfortunately are of too frequent ooourrence in this variable climate , namely , cold taken from over exertion in the pursuit of my business ; not heeded at the commencement , it proceeded through all the usual stages of colds , next cough , then diffloulfcy of breathing , attended with most distressing exertions in coughing , with sensation of blood rushing upwards to the head until the temples felt as if they would burst . I tried all the usual remedies ; when , almost without hope , I saw your advertisement , and was induced to give it a trial , and , I rejoice to Btate , that the first night afforded me relief . A . little continuance in its use gradually brought refreshing sleep , and now I am happily restored to health . Allow me , Sir , to tender you my best thanks for the means you have taken to place your discovery before the public , who , I am convinced , will be benefited by Us use . ¦ Yours , most obediently , "James Wilson . " " To Mr . C . Holland . " This case will bo immediately followed by others , to the number of nearly 100 already received . ; its astonishing power in subduing coughs and colds exceeds all belief , whilst its healing , balsamic , and soothing qualities instantly relieve soreness and tightness of the chest , sense of suffocation , sore throat , | &o . : - .

CAUTION ! np H B extraordinary demand for PARK'S . LIFE X 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 eaeh Box of the genuine Medicine ha 3 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 bo genuine * In ho instance has this invaluable Medicine failed to effect a perfect care where due pationoe and perseverance has been exercised ^ Read the following from Mrs .

Instances of extraordinary cures are continually occurvhig to us by their agenoy . One woman who had boon 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 tho activity and freedom of perfect health .

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 ten years' standing ; others of Asthma , &c . &c .

VALUABLE WORKS . Just published , price 2 a . 12 mo . bound in cloth , "GUF ^ EEN LESSONS ON THE ANALOGY JO AND SYNTAX OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE , for the use of adult persons who have neglected the study of Grammar . BY WILLIAM HILL ^ The LesBons , in this Work , aro intended solely for the use of natives . They are divested , therefore , Of all those hair ' s-breadtn distinctions and unnecessary subdivisions in AHalogy , which , if at 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 hava a definite and precise meaning , illustrative of the things they represent , The Parts of Speech' ale arranged *» au entirely new principle , founded on a Philosophical Consideration of the Nature of ^^ lianguage , and 1 applicable to all Languages . The necessary Divisions and Subdivisions are rationally accounted for ; arid 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 fourv . ' - , ¦ . . '¦ - ,., - . ¦¦;¦ ¦ ; ' :.- ' ; ¦ : - •;; , - .. - :: ; , •;¦ .. ' :. > .. : . . - : - - In Syntax , the formation of the English Language is ; exclusively consulted , without any unnecessary reference to other Languageg . A majority of the numerous Rules given in most Grammars are shown to be little better than a heap of senseless Tautology . Thenecessary . ' : Rules . ** $ demonstrated ; upon rational Principles , and illustrated by a variety of Example . By the Use of this Book aud its accompanying Exercises , any person may , in a few weeksj acquire a good knowrledge of Grammar without any of the disgu 8 t 3 ngdrudgery , 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 , Seleoted from u host of similar ones , may convey some idea of the public estimation in which this Work / isholden : — " 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 thai 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 ef the English language than can be found n some very elaborate works .

One penny he said was sufficient for any -working perwm to pay lor a Chartist lecture , and he hoped the committee of the Universal Suffrage Association would xesaember that , in future ; however , he was not ene of those wao required the countenance of crowds , or the inaxus of the multitude , to cheer him onwards in the coarse be bad hitherto pursued , and was now pursuing
H « was satiEtled that the course be bad tiien was the only one by which the Cbartez could be obtained , and to that course he would adhere till the darter was the Jaw of the land , fie was sow on his way back to England , and be bad resolved to devats his last hour in Scotland to addressing the working men of Greenock . He had sat in the Scottish Convention as the representative of the birth-place of the immortal Wallace , and fee was bound to « sy that do part of Scotland had been Store ably represented in the -Convestion than the town of Greenock . Had all the delegates who sat in the Convention , been possessed of thshcaesty which characterised the delegates from Greenock , be would have had a very different tile to tell of the Convention . - -it ¦ was the want of honesty , as well as the lack of uni « n
'Which were th&causes of weakness in the Scottish Charlast ranks . He was sure from whs * he had seen in the Convenuont ' aat the " Whigling Chaztist leaders of Glasgow lad gone over to the Corn Lawrepeaiers . Glasgow andste suburbs had sent no less than seventeen delegates to the Convention , which consisted © f but sixty-one in all , aod but for himself and those who -acted with him , < he believed it was the ictintioa « f the little Whigliags to have led the Chartists wholly over to the Corn law leaguers . It was these € &me little WhigJiags wbo have divided the people , -also on the National Petition , which was drawn tip by the English Executive . They could cot endure tbe idea of that petition containing f&ste ftsts and one ttxrd in favour of poor oppressed Ireland . But he would tell the Chartist
Corn Law leaguers of Glasgow that the whits slaves of Ireland would be emancipated by tbe Charter , tbe selfsame hour that those of England and Scotland were emancipated . In his opinion , therefore , not only should the repeal of the Union fee enumerated in the petition , bus every other grievance that could be named by th 8 people , collectively and individually , should be detailed in it . The indescribable misery which" par-Taded ths whole empire ^ he - said , was clearly attributable to class legislation . Some of th « more immediate causes of the stagnation of trade , and of starvation , " rere detailed in the petition , and iow were these to be lemoved till they were made plain and palpable to our heartless rulers 2 And how were they to be made jcaown to tbem . unless they be enumerated in the
petition ? The discussion which w-culd take jrtace on the presentation of the petition would be made known to all through the Whig and Tory journals , and by that means the Charter would be carried , like every other useful refoim , oat of doors befose it was carried in doors . In ths se&ntime , the people in their endeavoars to carry the Chaitsr were left to their own resources , and bat for the discord sown BTurmgBt them by deceitful leaders , he bad no doubt of thtir ultimate succtss . The Whi & ling Giasgow leaders were for giving up their former mode of attending public meetings , and of juoviDg the usual amendment ; but we considered that discussion was the mainspring of legislation ; and a public meeting is the only opportunity that Chartists
have of making ibeir principles known . It is the law of the realm tLat erery man has a right to attend every public nesting , asd state his opinions respecting the objects of the meeting . And it was "with infinite pleasure that he vvtsd for honest Mr . Rus 3 " s mouun , which was carried in the Convention to that effect . Ihs privileged class considered the Intelligence , moral worth , and talents of the working people b ^ aeaih thek notice ; but , at innumerable public meetings they have already , and he hoped thty ever would , uj-ke thsmselYfcs acd tha principles of the Charter invincible The Corn liw rtpsalers were cow moving tea Yea and earth to divert the millions from the Charter . They ¦ were in the practice of even quoting scripture to adorn their hollow sophisms . He , too , hsd read ths Bible
often , and often , and with aUeiitioa , but he bad searched in vain for a fixed duty ; and , as to a &ikiiag scale , he could not find it tbeieiu . "We Ere reminded by them of what unica effected during the agitation for the Rtform Bill . Well , and what did I ' tie Befurm Bill uj for the working people ? It procured nothing for them but disappointment and starvation . >* othiLg is squired , sav tfee Cora Law Leaguers , but a repeal of ths Com Lavrs , t 3 make the iniUions rich , and Britain B paradise- Tijis ia iui delusion , however .

secure , satisfied , and happy after the enactment of thie People ' s Charter , than it was possible for the nation to be under the present system of th&Bgs . Thii t # afl what he asserted , and when the C * artet was obtained , he might well say this ia partly my wtjrk Mr . O'Connor was listened to with the ntjndst tttentioa and respect throughout , aod concluded amidst the hearty plaudits of all present . The foregoing report if it be worthy of the _ name has been written mostly from meuaory , a-ad . the ideas rather th * n the exact espressious of JI ** O'Connor it has been our wish to preserve , and instead of the Boliahed language of the gentleman and scholar , the words are those of an illiterate plebis * . Mr . O'Connor left the hall the instant the lecture was concluded to take his passage for England , by one of the . Liverpool steamers . Our own delegates then at considerable lexgth related what had transpired in the late Conven
tion , and how they had * oted -oa the various topics brought before it , after which a vote of thanks was ¦ Hoved to both which was carried , though not nnani-• mously . A few of Mr . BrewBter ' a admirers wh « were present , demurred to the vote of thanks , and assigned some rather odd notions for -doing so . TThen the two parties however came to understand tba apparent difference , and the objections started by tbe minority they were readily and fairly answered . Ths vote of thanks we may take it uponus to say , -was passed all but unanimously . Before tha meeting separated a future meeting was spoken of for tbe purpose of discussing the difference between the-Corn Law Repealers and the Suffrage Extensionists . No-final arrangement ? however were entered into , eo far as we have beard , but we think a discussion of tbe fcind would do little harm were it conducted with the some good feeling , which characterised the short palaver which wound up the conclusion of Mr . O Connor ' s farewell lecture .
—Correspondent . GLASGOW . — CONTIMTATION OF THE SCOTTISH Convention . —On Tuesday night , the delegates having adjourned from the Church to the Session House , the discussion en the propribty of the Chartists attending public meetings was again renewed , which continued for a short time , when it was moved and carried'' That the delegates should suspend their proceedings , in order to afford an opportunity of hearing Mr . O'Connor's lecture for the benefit of the hand-loom
weavers , Lecicke Mr . George Allan , weaver , of Pollockshaws , was called to tbe chair , who . introduced tbe lecturer to the audience , amid raptus- us cheering , after which Mr . O'Connor proceeded , in a strain of feeling eloquence , to depict the miserable condition and increasing destitution of tbe hand-loom weavers of this country , took a view of the ovils flowiag from the present system of machinery , pointed out the happy results that would flow from a system being adopted of locating the industrious classes on the soil , && ; he also administered some Bevere bits to the Whig-Chartists . His lecture throughout was rapturously cheered , and the force , reasoning , and correctness of the position which he had taken up was admitted by all parties
present After a vote of thanks , which was given with long-continued cheering , to the lecturer , the delegates again formed into Convention , and renewed their -discussion , when Mr . Lowery , of Lasswade , moved an amendment— " That they approve of tbe Chartists of Scetl&nd exercising their right of attending public meetings , and pressing the consideration of their principles by amendments and discussions , if the lecturers , speakers , or chairmen of said meetings propese any resolutions , or motions , where we , . as a body of said meeting , consi&er it necessary to oppose or move amendments thereon . " Mr . Bankin seconded the motion of Mr . Pattison , with Mr . Lowery ' s additional amendment . After some further discussion , the delegates sojourned to Wednesday morning , when the discussion was again renewed , and a considerable number of the delegates having spoken upon the subject , when it appeared , from the general opinions given , that it
mattered not "what decision they came to , as the people would necessarily judge for themselves what kind of meeting they should oppose , and how thej should use their discretion , so that this question may be said to stand as it was . The committee appointed to draw up the petition gave in their report , and read a copy of the petition , which caused considerable discussion , after which it was agreed to adopt the petition as drawn up . Mr . Lowery then rose , and moved that , to prevent discussion among the Chartists , we recommend that all those districts , towns , or places , that have passed the JTational Petition for the People ' s Charter , as drawn up by the English Executive , to go on with the signing of the same , but that , in future , as the extraneous introduction of matter in the petitions for the Charter has alrea'ly caused discussion and disunion , the people be properly consulted hereafter . After a lengthened discuss ; on this was agreed to .
"Wednesday Evening Sitting . —A Committee was appointed to dra . 'w up a new aud improved plan of organisation for Scotland . Mr . Brewster again brought up his " under no circumstances" affair , when only four hands were held up for it , all the other delegates voting against it . On the announcement , the Rev .

The regular charge for admission is one halfpenny ; out of which they pay rent , purchase a number of tracts for distribution , forms for the accommodation , of the members and membership cards , books for a library , and other necessary articles , and have now on hand a few pounds . They are about to establish a reading room , in which will be held discussions ou the principles of the Charter and various utber topics .

BELFAST . —Tbe National Petitionhas been adopt » 4 here , and the cause is progressing . The absolute necessity of the Chartists in Ireland being incorporated with the Irish Universal Association was , a ^ t a recent meeting , takes seriously into consideration , and believed to be tbe ^ aly means whereby tbe protection of the law could be seoQied . Great difficulty is exyerienced in this town to procure a proper and suitable place in which the brethren could conveniently assemble . We are truly in the position of . David of old " hunted Uk » partridges OB tto mountains ; " bntihough we are " oppressed , tre are not overcome ; " and depending on the known justice of oar cause , we are still determined to persevere The individuals who have espoused our cause here are moat determined and indefatigable in their endeavours ,
and bybtbtj legal means possible will farther tbe prosperity of the People ' s Charter . The great mass of tbe |> eople here have so long been accustomed to consider themselves bound to stand as a " mighty bulwark " against the " sweeping tide ot popery , " as they themselves call it , which , they imagine , was ever ready on tbe slightest inlet of liberty to annihilate them from tbe face of Ulster , that they cannot easily be brought to consent to " a perfect equality of right * . " So much have their minds been prejudiced both from the pulpit and the press , and themselves beld the blind dupes and tbe bound Blaves of their imagined superiors , that they
can hardly believe one wbo tells them they are even of the-same species and destined by . their great Creator to enjoy equal rights and privileges ; because hitherto an almost midnight darkness has clouded their political horison ; but now that the day-5 far of liberty has arisen—that the agitation of the People ' s Charter has aroused the influence of our sister island on its behalf , we trust , ere long , to behold Ireland to her utmost extremity unit ' ng in this great struggle for equal rights and liberties to tbe people ; and then would our most gracious sovereign embrace tbe People's Chatter from the throne , and the cabinet regulate its counsels in accordance with the mandates of tbe nation . .

( Loud cheers . ) The great display of patriotic sentiment he saw before him , convinced him that the day of human regeneration was approaching . Class legislation affected all ; e trusted , therefore , they would all co-operata in the good work .
