      fTIHE high encomiums bestowed on this unrivalled X Preparation by the most eminent Surgeons , as well as the strong recommendations of Patients who have experienced its Salutary and Beneficial Effects , and the great and increaaiag demand for it from all parts of tho World , prove its decided superiority over every other Medicine in present use , for tke speedy and effectual Cure of that particular class of Diseases for which thos * dangeroua , nauseous , and uncertain Medicines , Copaiva and Mercurials , have hitherto been too frequently resorted to . It generally effects a perfect Cure in the short space of three or four days , and in reoent oases sometimes sooner , without danger of a return , which so often occurs after trusting to Gopawa , &c , fot a cute . It contains , in a concentrated state , ill the efficacious parts of Sarsa parilla , combined with other well-tried aad approved alteratives , which make it an excsllent remedy for secondary symptoms , pains of the bones , glandular swellings , chronic rheumatism , scrofulous soorbutic eruptions , blotches and pimples ,, and ail disorders originating from Impurity of blood . In cases of debility , attended with lassitude , nervous depression of spirits , and loss of vigour , brought on by early imprudence , improper habits , long residence in hot or unhealthy climates , and other causes , it has been found to quickly produce a beneficial change , restoringhealth ^ energy , and vigour through ' out the whole system . For weakness and obstructions peculiar to Females , it has ia numerous oases proved invaluable . Prepared only by the Proprietor , J . W .

      LfiTTER FROM MR . WAI . HICK , NOR . THERN STAR OFFICE , LEEDS ' Northern Star Office , Leeds , Maroh 17 th , 1842 , f ^ rientlemen , —You will oblige by forwarding , at U your earliest convenience , the same quantity of PARR'S LIFE PILLS as last sent . While ! am writing I cannot refrain from communicating tho flattering intelligence of the groat goodyourpills are doing in Leeds and its neighbourhood . It is clearly a great error to find fault with a medicine merely because it is a patent one ; and more especially since its use has contributed so largely to the public health . The fact is , however , predjudice is fast giving way , as it always muat where the pills are tried . A few cases in point may serve to confirm and illustrate what I have asserted . " A young female came into the shop to-day for a box , who stated that they had done her immense good . She had been troubled with a hoarseness se bad that no one could hear her speak ; but having taken a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , she was completely restored , as was evident by the way she spoke . " Very maay case of extraordiuary cures hate occurred among the aged workpeople , both male and female . In one mill , an aged couple , enfeebled by disease and debilitated by premature old age , had become almost past work ; they vrere persuaded to try a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , and ia a week were restored and strengthened that they could pursue their employment with pleasure and profit ; so much to , that from being unable to work at their calling more than two days in the week , and this with great physical difficulty and languor , they can now not only do a full week ' s work , but overhours besides . Bad as trade is here , the old people being favourites with the mill owner , are enabled to get as much employment as they can do , which has excited the envy of those younger persons who had been employed in their absence ; aad it is a laughable fact , that Patr's Pills come in for a share of their rancour . The old people continuo to take the pills regularly in small quantities , aad find them a 8 necessary to their health aad prosperity as their dailj food , " The next and last case which I shall mention a this time , is one of a most extraordinary nature . I have not seen the individual myself , bat I shall give you the fact as I have received it from his employers and from Mr . J . Hobson , who has frequently seen him since bis convalesence . The man is a wording mechanic and had spent about thirty pounds last year on the doctor , in going to the Isle of Man and other places , for the benefit of his health , but to no purpose . His food had consisted for along time of nothing but rice milk , the stomach refusing to take anything stronger . His body was greatly emaciated and his temporal prospects clouded ; with a mind filled with melancholy forebodings for the future , he returned to his friends at Leeds , where he was told by his medical adviser that should he be restored a little , his disorder would have its periodical return ; but beiug advised to try PARR'S LIFE PILLS , he bought a few boxes , which have completely removed his disease , and enabled him to return to hia work , whero he was seen a few days ago by Mr , Hobson , ( it being dinner hour ) eating beef-steaka with gr . eat gusto ; and to whom he recited with pleasureand gratitude the cause of his then healthy condition , together with a long history of his pa ^ st affliction 11 Should the above three cases of oureB be worthy of your notice , you are at perfect liberty to make what use of them you think proper . ' I am , Gentlemen , yours , respectfully , " WILLIAM HICK . To Messrs . T . Roberts aad Co ., 9 , Crane Court Fleet-street , London . " MIRACULOUS CURB PROM THE USE OF PABR ' S LIPB PILLS . Copy of a Letter just received by the Proprietors from Mr . Wm . Moat , 3 , Cobbett-etreet , Shaw ' s Brow , Salford . 11 To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " Gentlemen , —I have the utmost pleasure in for > warding you this my own case of cure , effected solely by the persevering use of your Parr ' s Life Pills .. Before having recourse to them , I had been for upwards of five years afflicted with a most distressing malady , whioh the different medioal men who attended me all pronounced to be a seriouB case of hydjrocele ( or dropsy of the scrotum ) , and declared thete was no other chance of either relief or cure than undergoing a surgical operation . I was thus driven almost to despair ; and coasalted the treatise written by Sir Astley Cooper , wherein he states that the operation is generally attended with considerable danger . I therefore determined not to risk so painful aad uncertain an experiment , but rather chose to leave the result to nature and Providence . Fortunately , I heard of the great fame of Pass ' s Lifb Pills , and resolved to give them a fair trial . I consequently took them for some time without perceiving any benefit , but still kept persevering ; and I have now taken twelve boxes , and to my great joy am perfectl y well , the dropsy is entirely removed , together with a scorbutic affection , which I had been much troubled with since my return from India in 1827 { and now there is not a vestige of disease left in my whole system , as I am now in better health and-spirits than I have been for fourteen years . I feel certain you would have accounts of far more cures , if people would persevere in the use of tho pills a proper length of time , as I have done . I give you my heartfelt thanks , and authority to publish this letter , and will gladly answer any applicationseither personally or by letter , aad remain your grateful and obliged servant .

" " Gentlemen , —I am happy to inform you that we are daily hearing accounts of the good effects of Pabr ' s Life Pills ; to enumerate the cases world b&a task too formidable for me , and whioh has prevented my writing to inform you before , as I canhardly tell where to begin . One man said he wanted a box of Life PillB for Life Pills they were to him they had done him to much good , ia relieving him of an obstinate cough and asthma . ** Auother said they were worth their weight in gold ! as he was not like the same man since he had taken them . "Another said his wife had had a bad leg for years , but after taking one small box , which was recommended by his Class Leader , her leg was much better , and when she bad taken the second box * is was quite as well as the other . " A very respectable female said her husband had been afflicted above two years , and had tried many things , but since he had taken Parr's Lifk Pills he was quite a new man .

Y < m -will now judge bow far be was © efoiaere . : justiSsd in making such an attack- To the decision of Xet us then state the circumstance -which has occa- j your opinion we will respectfully yield , j&oned this address . It has obviously reached -the ear ) In conclusion we solemnly declare , that we have been of every member of our body long ere this time , that \ guided by no other motives than those of honourable Jdr . Shsrman Crawford hai projected a plan , by ! and upright men and nncompromising Chartists in this whiek a few members united in the House of Com- j appeal , and trust that our every act will beat the snons might , during the ensuing sessions , offer a strong ] severest scrutiny by friend and enemy .

      Msifitancfl to the Government , and secure a continuous "j Slid ample exposure of the national grievances—in ; opposing the Ministry on all questions of supply , and i demanding , in accordance with a privilege anciently : exercised by the House , that the public wrongs should ¦ 2 > 6 redressed before the revenues were appropriated , j This measure , 20 soon as it came nutter our notice , was j made a question of serious eonsiderataen . True , it was sot originated by a Chartist , and perhaps sot with the j precise motives which would induce si u s party to ¦ ' give it our support ; but we regarded in it the revival of a privilege of the most sacred and essential impor-= ? n « to gui political prospect * , and which , apart from . names , most at Borne subsequent period , be employed i

      ~ bj the patriotic minority , which we hope to promote to ! Parliamentary power . Besid ? s , the few members who \ agreed to act in concert , on all occasions , within ; file walli of the House , threw themselves entirely « n the country , leaving the people , through their 1 pitiSMis , io determine the nature and character o ? their ! vztmgs , and consequently determine the character of . fise opposition . No perfidy , therefore , wkich they eonld attempt by an abase of public complaint to achieve party measures , but would at once strip them of all fnflaenee with the mass and expose them to the contempt and ridicule cf both factions on the floor of the Souse . In a word , as they would array themselves rjxinst both factions , so we play the part of a faction in i anaying ourselves against theHi . Whatever might be the merits ci demerit * of the scheme , no reference , ' citicism , or comment has ever been made on it by oar Directing Officers , whose duty , we believe , it was

      to have given an opini on , till last we « k , when Mr . O'Connor offers the following observations : — " lir . ; -Storage may advocate his nameless project . Attwood zasj blaster about 2 iis one pound notes ; and Shannan j Crawford may talk of the still greater folly of with- ' bedding the supplies from Governments , whose very tari « tirce depend upon majorities to vote those supplies to themselves ; tha league may talk of cheap bread : fcci I tell you that Storgeism , AUwoodism , Crawfonlism , ' sod Leaguism , are one and all but sectifins of Capitalism , " Ree Iradism , and Whiggjsni ; and , therefore , I for ; one , shall hold myself altogether aloof from the sgita-1 lion sought to be got up by those crotchet mongers . It * H ae use for men to write to me about the practicability j Of Crawfetd ' s scheme , aad other xVwpi ^ as a me&SB of ¦ giving incref led vigour and freshness to Chartism . I look with pit ? , if not with eutpidon aad contempt , apon old birds who can be caught with such chaff- "

      To whom then does the condndJng remark refer , or bow far was he justified in using isch language to any portion of the members of ocr Association J We state bonestly and fearlessly , that-we did , as well as our fcHow Chartists , co-operate with the Complete Suf-If- ^ sts en this question , and on eqaally honourable eesditkoiBj a Mr . O'Connor himself struggled to secure the retain of Mr . Storge and Mr . Gisbonrne for the borough of Nottingham . If on 9 bdieved with Mr . O'Connor that Sturge-!• ji was bat masked Wbiggism and CapiUlism , we . should find little to admire in that policy which commanded bis services in reprobation of his

      sentimentsto co-operate with a union for the parliamentary sascess cf its leader and candidate , which he regarded as aiming at the advancement of Whiggery and Capitalism . We SKtredata Mr . O'Connor ' s good opinion 1 we value his ] Jaboors in onr cause ; but we do not feel oureelvesTn any i farm responsible to him for our public conduct . He > r >« j nndondtedly a light to give Ms opinion on the acts of I sy part of our body , equally . with any other member , j throgh we do not subscribe to his right to treat with j contempt men whose honesty and devotion to the e&ese ! bar sever been even suspected . We ask no man ' s ! » iction to be permitted to promote our own and ehil- \ drsas freedom ; while we crave every man to scrutintea \ tbe rectitude of our motivesand the wisdom of our ¦

      , poaey . - . ! . Let us then state the ground on which we feel bound , ] a » hcsiest men , to co-operate in this matter . To inves-1 t * gate fully the merits of the plan , is beside the object of dis addrega , and therefore we shall briefly sum sp our opinions apart from the names ot Mr . Crawford himself , ' ^ r . Sturge-, or » cy one else , thit you may judge more ! C ^ Kly > the simple nature of our motives . ; JPirstly , we hold it to be a principle of the grossest ; injustice according to tie principles of the Charter , for Government to usurp the rights of any individual member of society ; this "wrong being -proportionately

      grsafc to the extent it disfranchises ; and as the vast majority is excluded from all participation in the right o&jkower-of governing , it necessarily follows that the means , * g 6 k £ are the national revenues , by which the Government maintains its usurpation ; those means "wbjch am it with every instrument of oppression , if a privilege remains and sufficient patriotism is to be found in-ttie LegislatnTB with the suffering millions at their back io impede their appropriation until the public gtjevarices are redressed , or at least amply exposed ; -Wft-oostend tiiat . from every principle of justice , we srezbound to encourage and strengthen the patriotic levin their exertions , while they hofestiy expound our sentiments embodied in oar petitions .

      Secondly , as the taxes sze levied and appropriated Without onr consent , and the levying made in so indlrect a macser that we have no power of resisting them , -either in our individual capacities or unitedly , except through the efforts of some few honest men within the Senate , -we deem it of the first moment , to XbB practical assertion of cur principles , to protest Xtatjooally against every appropriation of the public treasures , until we are fully represented in the Govern-T&enfc .

      Thirdly , We consider that uo step could be taksn more likdy to enable ns in TP » VJTig a fall exposure of ocr . social End political wrongs—er which could secure So extended a publicity of the cft&ntless outrages daily 23 rpeirated and permanently operating on os throngh every department of society , and ¦ which never could be embodied in a single National Petition . Thousands of facts with -which we might daily supply our friends in

      Padiameat would be sufficient , if published , to destroy I ahe efearacter . of every government with half the mill , i tary power of Burope to defend its tyranny . j PonrtMy , We consiaered th » t the efiect prodnced on j the public mind by continuous and systematic dii-CKSgons in the House on- the xaasifold grisvacces off feifi nation , would lead to the most beneficial remits by ! awakening the public siisd to investigate every cau&ej of-distress and bare thewickedaess both of Government j ao ^ Modal tyranny . ' Fifthly , Because we believed the Plan was founded ! oOvSomd democratic principle . - :

      Such was tie gronnds on which we xupported the ' scheme of Mr . Crswford . We neither repndiated i > ar [ jposal policy , equivocated in sentiment , nor ooicpro- ! jaiBed principlea . Tet Mr . O'Connor would consider ! thepartfes who had approved this measure as being ! £ b » apologists of aSlocratle tyracny , the anoonscioai ) dujM ni the Pro Pree Trade league , or the uisprinci- j pled traitors to unsullied Chartism . He addaces bo j tada to justify bis charge * ; nor could put his fingers ! es a single act of ours which would sustain so uncalled- \ foe a commentary j int on . the contrary , we could ad- ioee as many evidences of our - devotion to the princi- ) yles of liberty u any equal aamber of ear fellow Char- j iiais ^ toQogboiifcjiiB movemaui . The project he asserts i is ioHy , as the Qovemment ias alwavs the Tx > wer . 1

      the House concur in a Bjsanra of equal importance to national liberty . They have placed their services at the command of the people : not individual and isolated services , but itheir conjoined resistance to the prpxrtss of Ministerial oppression , to the enactment of tyrannical measures for the destruction of our remaining liberties , and to secure the development of national wroegs snd Use public opinion of our country . If we contemplate the Herculean efforts of Mr . Duncombe , and equally the individual efforts of Mr . Ferrand in his exposures of social oppression we can easily conceive the immensity of power -which s > united and systematic opposition would present to increasing despotism of the Government . _ Would we derive no benefits from an ample discussion on the Poor Laws \ rith five hundred petitions from varous parts ot the country to strengthen the cobccrted opposition of a few members ? Would it not test the dap-trap of the Tories on this question ?

      Would we derive ro benefit from a systematic demand that the people should be represented on all questions of supply before such supplies were forced by the majoritj ? Would no advantage be secuied from an abundant expression of public opinion on every fact and cause of domestic wrong ? Yes , incalculable must be the results of such a policy . D . feat within tjje House would be victory -without . Public eplnion is ripe for this mRgnifl / xint fcxptrinaent . It may be ridiculed as lollj , and oar integrity as Chartists suspected in approving it by our support , bnt we ieel confident it will yet be oar alternative for national salvation .

      Tne oligarchy of liches^—the millionah aristocracythe upstart aspirants for political usurpation , have so more sympathy from us , nor have we any more reliance in their pretensions tfean we have esteem for the purple-clad and blood-stained despotism of a Tory regime . Nor can we regard Mr . Crawford or Mr . Sinrge as the moat insiduoua enemies of British liberty : yet entertaining this difference of opinion from Mr .

      ESCAPE OF SIX CONVICTS FROM NOTTINGHAM GAOL . On Sunday afternoon several convicts made their escape from the county gaol At Nottingham . Between four and fire o ' clock , on the second turnkey going down into the felon ' s-yard , an attack was made upon him , the key taken out of his hand , and he was locked in the yard . Six convicts rushed up the steps , and proceeded to the outer door , where meeting with the head turnkey , they fell upon him , knocked him down with great violence , and forcing the key from his hand , which he resolutely held for Borne time , they unlocked the door , and out they ran . An alarm was given , but the men all escaped . We have received the following description of them x—Joseph Smith , aged 21 years , stands five feet nine inches in height , fresh complexion , brown hair , hazel eyes , and oval visage .

      Joseph BowerB , aged 30 , five feet nine inches high , fresh complexion , dark brown hair , oval visago , and has several scars on the left hand . John Binns , aged 24 , five feet seven inches high , fresh complexion , brown hair , oval visage , and lately resided in Derbyshire . These three men were oonvicted of the burglary at Sutton Bonnington , at the house of the Keverend Robert Meek , and were sentenced to transportation for life at the late special assize . Thos . Burton , aged 36 years , five feet nine inches high , dark complexion , dark brown hair , hazel eyes , oval visage ; under sentence of transportation for fifteen years , for stealing ten lamb bogs at Faros *

      field , in the connty of Nottingham . William Thompson , aged 22 , five feet six inches high , fresh complexion , brown hair , grey eyes , and oval visage ; convicted at the late special assize of burglary at Fiskerton , Notts , and sentenced to be transported for ten years . Thomas Green , aged 24 , five feet nine inches high , brown hair , light complexion ; convicted of burglary at Fiskerton , and was sentenced at the late special aB&izes to transportation for life . The convicts all had the prison dress on , and were without hats . A large reward is offered for their apprehension . Burton was taken in an hour and ahalf afterwards , within two miles of the town , near Colwiok Wood .

      Nottingham , Tubsdat , Focb o'Clock . —Not one of the men has yet been taken . The answer given officially in all quarters is , " Nothing satisfactory has been heard . " Caution as to the publicity of information thst maybe had is of course most proper under the circumstances . There is little doubt but that the men have all changed their dresses , and almost as little that they are now all of them , though separated , in Nottingham , or the immediate vicinity of the town . They appear to have started as though proceeding to Sheffield , via Mansfield , but probably , iaving found themselves hotly pursued , ana foreseeing that information would have preoeeded their possible arrival in Sheffield , or even Mansfield , they have sagaciously , having first taken the police on

      that scent , doubled back upon the outskirts of the town of Nottingham , and there become secreted in the cellar of some beerahop , receptacle of stolen property , or the like . It is stated that the men themselves could command hundreds of pounds , so that the £ 50 reward at present offered , will hardl y suffice to procure their being delivered up . We learn that the town polioe have a clue to one or more of them , bnt the rural police seems to be looked upon as so many ptrambujatory ciphers , amounting to just nothing in the aggregate . The chief constable of the town well knows their persons and all their hauntB hereabouts . Having been so hotly pursusd as to be forced to return to this locality ( . assuming

      this fact , which there is strong reason to believe ) , there is little doubt but that ere many hours they will be recaptured . Could they have reached Sheffield before information was received there the result wonld , probably , have been very different . The magistrates met to-day , and forwarded a report to the Home-office , in wnioh they pretty generally acquit Mr . BrierJy , the keeper , from blame , and there seems to be little doubt now but that the infirm man who took down the milk to the den of these sine ruffians h »\ i the key of the main gate about his person , and that it was taken away from him when he was senseless horn the effects of the blows inflicted *

      Much alarm is prevalent in the country districts about here , but there is every reason to believe that the men are safely confined , and will be ferreted out by the town constables . The head warder , who was attacked at the main gate , has within these few last hours exhibited more alarming symptoms , and great apprehension is felt for his life .

Gilmour received the intimation with the same simple unaffected demeanour which she has always exhibited in her difficult and trying situation , and she is understood to be rather pleased than otherwise that the long period of suspence in which she has been kept approaches to a termination .

      A Slranqb Animal , —The Courrier de Lyon gives the following most wonderful story as a rare and singular instance of sympathy between the canine and feline race . We can hardly believe , however , that our contemporary is serious :- »> ' An inhabitant of this place has brought up achienchal ( a hybrid between a dog and a cat is , we presume , meant ) . The whole of the body is covered with hair like that of a spaniel . One half of the head has all the character of the canine race , the other moiety resembling that of a oat . The paws are furnished with the claws of a cat . The animal snaps and barks like a dog , but when enraged mews like a oat . When caressed it Bhows its satisfaction by purring like the frequenters of the garrets and gutters . "

      The late Poet Latjbeate , Dr . Southet . A public meeting has been held at Keswick , in Cumberland , and has determined that a votive tablet of marble , of considerable Fine , should be placed in the Church , to the memory of the late Dr . Southey . The present Poet Laureate ; Mr . Wordsworth , has written the inscription , and we have seldom witnessed anything more ridiculously objectionable . We must leave out all that relates to "foaming torrents "— *• Bpirit of waters "— "Bleeping in the Cumberland Lakes , " and Mr . Wordsworth's telling the hills and vales of Cumberland that Dr . Southey is dead , and his telling Dr . Southey ' s books that their owner being dead and buried , he cannot read them anymore . What we most object to is the followiag passage , than which few things can be found with leBs poetry or truth : —

      " Whether he traced historic truth with leal For the state ' s guidance , or the church's weal ; Or fancy , disciplined by studious art , Informed bis pea , or wisdom of the heart , Or . judgments sanctioned in the patriot ' s mind By reverence for the rights of all mankind . Large were bis aims . ; yet in no human breast Gould private feelings find a holier nest Hit joys , bis griefs , have vanished like a cloud From Skiddaw ' g top ; but he to Heaven was vowed Through a long life , and calmed by Christian faith In hii para soul the fear of change and death . " Dr . Southsy was in his youth the most violent of Radicals , and as to . hia Christian faith , he wrote soaeof . the blasphemous tracts and works against < 3 tristranity that appeared during his day . With respect to his patriot mind having a reverence for

      the rights of all mankind , the Poet Laureate for forty yearrtteroted his pen to the defeaee of the Tories ; and here he was grateful , for tbe Tories paid him well . We hate long epitaphs . In ninety-nine eases -out of -one hundred they are dull , laboured , and foil of falsehood . We could have selected an infinitely better epitaph from Southey's " Wat Tyler , " -or from some of his other irreligious and most dfeloyal publications ; but de mortuis , &c . The present Poet Laureate had two rich and excellent peaces iB-lfte North of England , which be contrived to * transfer ingeniously to his son . He ia now Poet Laureate , and " iwh a poet i" and Sir Robert Peel has just given him & pension of £ 300 a-year . The deuce is In it if sue A ft man would not write a loyal and religions « pnapi . i .
