It originated in her breast , and continued to spread nearly all over her body , defying every effort of surgical i = kill .

She further states that she is now almost well , and ascribes her convalescence solely to the persevering use of that so » ereign medicine , Parr's Life Pills .

Gentlemen , —When I consider the very great relief I have experienced from the use of Parr ' s Life Pills , I think it not only to be my duty to you but to every one who may be suffering from similar complaints with which I have been afflicted , to make my astonishing case as public as possible . For a lon ^ time past I have been greatly troubled with a most severe nervous complaint , giddiness , and swimming in the head , which increased to such a degree that at times I was compelled to leave off from my work , being unable to bear the least fatigue or excitement ,. At the suggestion of many of my friends , I was induced to try various medicines , but found that my complaint instead of diminishing , was daily growing worse . Having fortunately heard of the beneficial effecta of Pair ' s Life Pills , I resolved to give them a fair trial , though 1 must confess with but little hopes ot deriving benefit from them , aiier haviug tried so many other medicines without success ; 1 immedidiately purchased a small sized box of Mr . Wrangham , chemist , the only agent for the sale of them in Malton , and fortunate indeed has it been for me that I did so , for though 1 have just finished taking this one box , I find myself so far relieved that instead of daily , nay hourly , suffering from that dreadful complaint , nervousness , with its attendant miseries . I am restored to my former good health ; my nerves are strong—the giddiness and swimming in my head are totally removed , and I am now able to attend regularly to my trade . Allowing you 'o make whatever use you may think proper of this statement , and feeling truly grateful for the benefit I have obtained from taking Parr ' s Life Pills . I am , Gentlemen , your obedient Servant , THOMAS PATTISON , Painter . N . B . I shall be glad to answer any enquiries respecting the good the pills have done m < j . To Mr . T . Robtris and Co ., Craue Court , Fleetstreet , London .

Parr ' s Life Pills are acknowledged to be all that is r < quired to conquer disease and prolong life . No medicine yet offered to the world eversora * pidly attained such distinguished celebrity ; it is questionable if there now be any part of the civilized world where its extraordinary healing virtues have not been exhibited . This signal success is not attributable to auy system of advertising , but solely to the strong recommendations of parties cured by their use . At this moment the Proprietors are in possession of nearly 580 letters from influential , respectable , and intelligent members of society , all bearing testimony to the great and surprising benefits resulting from the use of the medicine . This is . a mass of evidence > n its favour such as no other medicine ever yet called forth , and places it in the proud distinction of being not only the most popular but the most valuable remedy ever discovered .

Parr ' a Life Pills . Amongst many others 1 oyirved one ; a case of Rheumatism , whioh appeared to me similar to my own case , and seeing it so successfully treatedj simply by the use of Parr ' s Life Pills . I resolved Upon giving that invaluable medicine a fair trial . I had been afflicted with Rheumatism many years , and at the time to whioh I refer was suffering acutely ! I determined , as I have said , on giving Old Parr ' s remedy a fair trial ; and accordingly sent for a box of the Life Pills . By the use o ' f these pilla I am enabled to say that I am now as well as ever I have [ been during the whole of my life . Thank God , I can now walk as well as ever I did .

Dron reported relative to a motion made in his locality for withdra-wing their snppert from the delegate meeting , and attributed the dcare "which appeared to exist in some localities to fcrssk up the delegate meeting to" the influence of the Xsagues gold dnafc . Hr . Simpson reported from the Metropolitan Victim Fund Committee . Mr . Sharp , by instruction ot the ClerkenireU Locality , moved the following resolution : — " That The delegate meeting
laie steps best adapted to counteract the effjrts of the Corn Lavr League in the Metropolis . " Mr . Wheeler seconded the motion . After considerable discussion , in ^ Fhich ^ irasra . Simpson , Tenlon , Msynard , J . Coo >[ Cni&y , Page , Overtoa , Kxrishton , and I > ron took part , the motion T * as carried -srithoat a dissentient . Mr . Simpson moved , and Mr . Wheeler seconded , " That the present Observation Committee "be dissolved and a more efficient one appointed . " The motion -was ultimately deferred until the ensuing meeting . Tiro shillingB -was received irom Camfctrwell , and the meeting Bdjoumed .
The LeaGTTE . —It having been announced that Mr . Buckingham would lecture on Thursday evening , upon the Corn Laws , at the Spread Eagle Tavern . Wands-¦ Wortb , and tbat discussion "would be allowed , Messrs . ¦ Wh eeler , Dowling , Dron . and other friends attended ; hut Mr . BncMagbam not being forthcoming , Mr . Idoore , barrister , of Manchester , ^ supplied his place . Ml Wheeler iJaving obtained leave of tke chairman to adflre 3 s the meeting at the close of the lecture . Mr . 2 floore protested against it , and stated that he "was oniy engaged to lecture , and should leave the mameut he had concluded , -which elicited grsat disapprobation , the meetins , ¦ which was a very large one , being led to
believe that a discussion weald take place . At the dose of the lecture Messrs . Wheeler and Dowling , having corrected . several mUstatemects made by the lecturer , the chairman extracted his promise of allowing them to address the meeting . Sir . Wheeler challenged Mr . Moore to discuss the subject , -without reference to the Charter , upon any evening he thought proper , the expenses to be divided between them . This challenge , much to the chagrin of his own par * y , Mr . Meore declined , acknowledging that hs had only shown them one side of the subject , and trusting they -would meet Bome other evening and bear his opponent . The meeting then clesed with three chetra for the Charter , O'Connor , the Star , &c
AL EXANDRIA , Vale of Letes . A public meeting of the inhabitants of this locality -was hi- !» l in the Odd Fellows' Hill , on the evening of Wednesday week , to hear Mr . Con M array jgivs in bis report as their delegate to the Birmingham Conference . Mr . Hurray referred at great length to all bis votes in the Conference , for acd against the various amendments and alterations of the Charter , and more especially to the clauses -under the bead " . penalties , " ia the tenth section . He said he bad voted for imprisonment , as being preferable to fines , in strictly carrying out the ends of justice in cases of convictions of the officers appointed to 'work the machinery of tbia Acs . He Eb . r ' . ' y stated his reasons in support of these votes , ¦ s riiieii veist , that » monty penalty pressed heavily en
a poor man ; being "nnabls to pay , ite most jiecessariiy go to pwBm ^ \ piije the rich ^ eliuqcent depending oc Ulfi strength of bis purse got off comparatively free , and it might also happen tbst the amount given by interested candidates , by -way of bribe to returning and parochial officers , and registration clerks , would ?* '' j-sble or treble that of tke fines imposed , - -i-icn would leave the parties open to violate the provisions of the lav ? -with impunity . On these grounds is voted that every man so offending , -whether lich or poor , should be visited -with imprisonment ; the principles -were founded . on the 2 aw of tquaiity , and Hit * -was only carrying it into practical operation . It had also been his lot to differ with the ra . - jority of his brother delegates as to the mode of piying members
\ rhen attending their Parliamentary duties . The clause as it now stands , enacts that they shall be paid yearly at « he close of each session . He supported an amendment to the t fleet that tbty bs paid monthly and in advance , for he held that in the event of any district electing a poor -working man to represent them in the House of Commons , and which -was by no means improbable , hs -would be seriously sffesttd by the ciause as It stands . He -woulJ maintain it "was no more dishonourable to receive monthly , - weekly , or evea daily pay for making the people ' s laws . ibTn a tradesman ot labourer getting his -wages on a Saturday n : ght . It wag fair , however , "to give the arguments on the other side , ¦ which were supported by " Messrs . © 'Connor , Lovett , Moir , and a large . majority of the Conference . It was
signed thai any man cbusen for such an important xituation , would ccnumnd an influence , at o ca ! ralieving him from pecuniary embarrassraetts ; but here they -would at once observe , there must be ; a § cpendanca somewhere , and the people should at all \ times provide for their representatives , and that too in i & manner whereby they could be free and unshackled , ' above the fear of want , and iniepeBdenl of every party- j His reasons for going so urinuwly into thes * details was ¦ solely -witha-rie-w of calling the aaention of the conntry ! to the consideration - A the . Charter as amended , that ; they m&j be Vettsr prepared to instruct their delegates J how to act in the next Conference called for its confirmation , and presented to the house of imb-cVes . He trusted the reporters present would note tksm bis few
remarks , for however fcumt . le , they might have the effect of inducing individuals better qnalifisd to take them ap and turn them to advantage- After giving a short account of bis tour for nearly 600 milts through tb * nonh uf England , bis ineeme and expenditure from the time hs left Glasgow until bis return , he concluded by calling on every man in that meeting to exercise bis free and unfettered right of opinion , either in . thanking or censuring him for ary one , or all of his acts , as they conscientiously believed him to have been right or wror . g , and sat do-wn -wiih the approbation of the meeting . Mr . Charles GlBn then moved , " That Mr . Murray do now receive the tfavnVti of thia meeting for bis whole conduct in the Conference } " expressing himaelf high ' 7 pleased with all his votes , and -wonld also support ibe

ABERDEEN . —On Tuesday -wetk Mr . Archibald M'Djnald delivered a lecture in the Hall , 38 , Gaorgestreet—Subject : " The past history , present position , and future prospects of Chartism . * ' It would seem needless to enter into auy lengthens *! detail of bew Mi . il'Dsnald handled the various important subjects in which he entered , for , altogether , it . was a mastepiece of reasoning , -which appeared to go home to the minds of his audience with crest force . Daring his observations on the present position in -which the Chartuta are placed by the opposbag factions , including the Com l ^ w repealers , and the sly and hypocritical Complete Suffrage functionaries , Mr . M'Donald passed a very high eulogy on the character of Mr . O'Connor , whom he described u a man who has been hitherto devoted to the noble
cause of banishing despotism from the habitable globe . If o man , said Mr . M'Donald , can justly ncd fanlt with Mr . O'Connor , far his having a deep rooted wi ^ b , which be puts in practice , to raise the kumble and industrious poor from their low ard degraded position ; hi 3 anxiety to abolish class pride , and class legislation , piovsa the greatness x > f his mind , and ought to nit-rit a far better Tewara than has hitherto fallen to Ms lot ; for , said he , all those who differ from . him have propounded nothing but a one-sided or selfish system , much more calculated to injure society than benefit it , and which , by the keen foresight of Mi . O'Connor , has been very deservedly exposed . However much these set-off gentry
may scheme and invent , it is too well known that they hold their claws in the rotten tree with a view to support it , while Krpent-liks they continue to devour the substance of the land . These must , erelong , emerge into the grand and only pure Bystem , or -wffl sink into ofelmon , and finally be swallowed up by the great AaronTa rod , which has been-thrown upon the ground of pnblio opinion to test its superiority . After a great ! Sf 7 . !? -2 CCeIlent re ? n « k 8 on tte straightforward wnduct of Mi . O'Connor , Mr . M'Donald sat down , when Messrs . J . Legg and A .

MANCHESTER . —( CfiOPPEK-STBEET . )—Mr . Jos . Leach lectured here on Sunday last , to a crowded andience , and gave great satisfaction . After the lecture there was a collection for the defence fund , which amounted to 5 s . 9 d . CARLISLE . —THE DEFSKCE Fdnd . —We stated last week that two public meetings had been held for the purpose of choosing collectors , and making other necessary arrangements to increase the General Defence Fund , and we have now ta state the result of those arrangements , -which feave been vigorously followed onL The greatest credit is due to the council and the various collectors who have responded to the call of Mr . O'Connor and the Northern Star , by an active and simultaneous movement in behalf of those who are about to take their trials for having displayed ai , anxious desire to serve the people . Collectors were appointed
for the various districts of the town , and we are happy to state , that by afe-w hours * exertion , and the friendly and generouB spirit displayed by those on whom they called , no Jess a snm than from three to four pounds were collected in Carlisle alone , many of the adjacent country districts having yet to come in ; so that we have every reason to believe that this sum will be increased to Frvs Pounds . The money thus obtained "will be immediately forwarded to Mr . John Cleave , a portion of which will be devoted for Chartist Circular * . Though the Chartist body are generally poor , yet they are so numerous as to . be able , with general exertion , to meet all the demands that may be made upon them . Should our friends be doomed to suffer imprisonment , we trust the collections will be continued , bo that sufficient support may be afforded to all who may suffer in consequence of their confinement .

ACCIDENTS IN COAL MINES . After devoting three years and a half to the collection of fact 8 and opinions , the committee appointed in 1839 , for that purpose , at SoHth Shields , have published their " Report , on the Causes of Accidents in Coal Mines , with an examination of Safety Lamps , Ventilation , Scientific Instruments , " &o . &c—a work which , as it becomes known , cannot but be the means of bringing about great changes and lasting benefits in the practice of mining all over the world . Within the last-twenty years , it appears that upwards of 680 persons have lost their lives by explosions and their consequences in coal mines on the Tyne and Wear alone . To Great Britain , it is stated , the coal mines are of " more consequence than mines of gold and silver—they set her stupendous machinery in motion , raisB her to a position the highest in the scale of nations , and brings her vast dependent territories , scattered over the globe , with all their valuable productions , within tho easy access and jurisdiction of the parent atate . "
The leading subjects of inquiry and consideration with the committee have been safety-lamps , ventilation , scientific instruments , infant labour in the mines , plans and sections , scientific education of officers of mine £ , government inspection , and medical treatment after explosion . Of these , the parts which refer to safety lamps and ventilation are most important . It is here that , for the first time , as far as we know , the danger of the so-oalled " safety , " or Davy lamp , has been publicly brought forward and substantiated . It is proved as clearly aa possible that there are destructive gases that , " an explosive mixture , passing at the rate of about 300 feet a minute ( not three and a half miles an hour ) , will penetrate the meshes of the Davy lamp , and inflame
an explosive mixture on the opposite side . " Indeed , we have here brought beforo us the distinct admission of Sir Humphrey Davy himself , that " there was a hazard in exposing his lamp to a strong current , by which the explosion would be passed through a glass cylinder . " This admission was made , or rather given as a warning , by Sir Humphrey to Mr John Buddie , agent and manager for the gwat northern coal mine owners , bo long ago as 1816 ; yet it was not until 1835 that Mr . Buddie , pressed bythe committee ofthatyear , in consequence of Mr . Galdsworty Gurney ' s previous . evidencei made known this most important fact . Sir Humphrey , at the same time , it appears , suggested a remedy : — " A tin soreen to slide upon the frame
wires of the lamp , and enctrole the circumference of the gauze cylinder , to an extent of about one-half or two-thirds of its circumference . " But even so late as 1839 , in the collieries under Mr . Buddie ' s own jurisdiction , this precaution appears to have been , and is now , very partially employed . Atter describing and commenting upon the various lamps hitherto introduced or suggested , the committee express their opinion that the best description of lamp to be employed in fiery mines , is one on the principle of the improved Clanny and Mueseler lamps—the latter with a continuous gauze cylinder—a lamp in which " the supply of air is derived entirely through the npper part of the construction over thejglass shield ; " but even this is not to be regarded as absolutely safe .
The committee , however , regard lamps as only secondary considerations , and report that the " far more important and safer system of ventilation has been comparatively neglected" in the working of coal-mines . An indicator of danger ( for a safetylamp , after all , is only so far valuable ) has been thus preferred , " either from erroneous conviction , or other less defensible cause , " to the removal of the danger itself , through processes of ventilation . The committee refer to the unwise and fatal notions that have hitherto existed on thi 6 subject , and point out the course which should be adopted , for the
common benefit of the miner aud the mine-owner . They mention the astounding fact , that iu some extensive mines , abounding most largely with explosive gas , the rate of the ventilating air-current is reducrd so low as one and one-tenth of a foot ^ one foot , and even 66 of a foot per second ! in consequence of the limited proportion of pit and shaft area to the enormous extent of excavations , " sometimes extending beyond seventy miles , where nearly four hundred acres are applied with atmospherio air by a single pit . " Upon this subject the committee find ,
" That the imperfect state of ventilation in tho northern mines islcaused by too few shafts in proportion to the extent of underground workings ; that the cost of sinking those shafts has been uuduly exaggerated ; and that the saving of expense , from destruction of battrices , waste of ropes , injury from explosion , &c , eventually compensates for the increased firBt outlay on the necessary additional shafts . , * That only increased velocity , and diminished
length of air currents , can secure against the recurrence of explosions ; that , for this purpose , one shaft ought to be apportioned to at the most 40 acres which is much more than tbe proportion in the metalic mines of Cornwall , or in the coal mines of SU fiord shire—often more than in those of Lancashire , arid sometimes in those of the northern coal field ; and that no " winning" or extraction of coal in a new mine shall be allowed to be made , unless two distinct and separate shafts have been previously put down , which should be securod by act of Parliament .
" That , for facilitating the easy passage of air without obstruction , the areas of the upcast shafts should invariably equal , if not exceed , the areas' of the downcast , instead of bearing , as they now do in many instances , a proportion of two to one . This iH clearly evident when it is considered that the heated products of the air , after combustion , as nitrogen , carbonic acid , &c , in ascending the upcast , are expanded nearly one-seventh , by the increased temperature of the furnace , from the time of their descent through the downcast and passag 6 in the works .
*• That the plan and mode of ventilation by highpressure-Bteam , recommended by Mr . Goldsworthy Gurney , the distinguished inventor of the Btide Light , as developed in his communications to the committee , fully detailed in the report , seem peculiarly adapted for accomplishing , at small expense , and without derangement to the present system of working , a vast increased and manageable rate of current . That this power although manageable , is almost illimitable , and can be applied to sweep thu galleries with the almost irresistable force of a hurricane , guided only by the safety of the works when the men may be absent from the pit , rendering it , before their descent , pure , healthy , and safe .
That , considering its power , safety , andeconomy , facility of execution and command , ventilation by high-pressure steam is peculiarly fitted tor the present condition of mines , and adapted for them in every stage of their operations . That it appears one of the most important and valuable suggestions , and , if fully and properly applied , preferable , as far as relates to its effects on the safety and healthiness of the mine , to any invention of modern times . " The plan of ventilation here referred to was laid before the Royal Academy of Brussels some twelve months back , in an essay on the subject by M . Gonot , and was thought bo highly of by that learned body that they rewarded him for its communication with a prize of 2 , 000 f . The committee then proceeded to dwell on the necessity of adopting in mines the use of scientific
instruments , by which the temperature and pressure of the atmosphere may be accurately indicated . ; the propriety of a registration of plans and sections ( as in foreign countries at present ) , by which the : danger of inundations , from breaking into old and unremembered workings would be avoided ; $ he importance of scientific officers in mines , and . of a cnmpulsory system of Government inspection , as upoa railways , &c . The remainder of the report applies to the medical treatment of persons , injured by explosion , on which much valuable information is given . The committee further protest against the practice of employing in these mines boys at an early age—and call for the application to England of the law which , in Franoe , Belgium , and Italy , prohibits the employment of boys younger than eleven or twelve .
The National Guards of Madrid have published a second declaration of their abhorrence of the licentious spirit of the opposition press , of that city , in which they express their determination to stand by Espartera and the Government .
