MAINWARINGl'S PILLS . Nearly two centuries ago Maiuwaring earned a fame greater than Abernethy by his rapid and certain cures of all these afflicting complaints , which arise , from derangement of that vital Organ , the Sjomach , such as Indigestion , causing Headache , Dimnees of Vision , Giddiness , Fulness at tho Pic of the Stomach , Wind , Heartburn , Water Brash , and Difficulty of Swallowing . Coativeness , attended with Dryness of Skin , Flushes of Heat and Cold , and tendency to Apoplexy . Bilious Affections , having a tendency to Jaundice ; Palpitation of the Heart , with Swelling of Legs and tendency to Dropsy , Affections of the Lungs , with short , dry , Cough , Phlegm , and tendency to Consumption . Mainwaring's work on the means and method of preserving health , " together with his system ef curing diseases , have caused him to be quoted and followed by the first medical men of tho present day , . who hereby admit that the wisdom and expferiencocf the shrewd Mainwaring has stood the test of nearly TWO CENTUBIES OF EXPERIENCE . Mainwaring ' s inosiim&ble prescription has been long in private hands until the steady , certain , and permanent cures effected by his Pills have foroed them into public use . Mainwaring ' s system is fully explained for the benefit of the afflicted in a small pamphlet , given gratuitously by the agents . All applications for agencies , en the usual terms , must be made to Cleave , 1 , Shoe-lane , Fleet-street , London ; and Hey wood , Oldham-street , Manchester .

WILKINSON & CO . may be CONSULTED at thoir Principal Establishment , Leeds , Daily , from Nine in the Morning , till Ten at Night , and on Sundays till Two . —One of the Drs . W . attends every Friday , at 8 , Southgate , Wakefield , ( near tho Church , ) from Nino in the Morning till Six in tne Evening ; every Thursday , at 4 , George-street , Bradford , from Ten in tbo Morning till Eight in the Evening ; and every Saturday , at 25 , High Oasegate , York . Every form of those Diseases is treated at thi . ^ Establishment , by Legally Qualified Surpoons , with the utmost Attention to the Safety , Privacy , and Circumstances of the Patient . In all Diseases of the Generative Organs , such ah Gonorrhcsi , Gleets , Strictures , Ulcers , Gravel , and all other Diseases of vhese Organs , W . It C 4 . may be successfully consulted . SECONDARY SYMPTOMS , which arise from improper Treatment ( tapeoialJy the use of Mercury ) , may bo kuown from Eruptions on the skin , pains in the Bones , affections of tho Throat and Nose , and general Impurity of the Blood . This may be regarded as the moBt dangerous stage of the Disease , and requires the utmost skill in its Eradication : — The Treatment adopted by W . & Co . has been attended with the most satisfactory Results , and they have always had the gratification of seeing thoir Patients restored to full enjoyment of Health . In Cases where an indulgence in a SOLITARY PRACTICE has produced those distressing Symptoms , Seminal Weakness , Nervous Debility , Loss of Appetite , Depression of Spirits , Indigestion , Flatulency , Difficulty of Breathing , Palpitation of the Heart , and all the Evidences of an Impaired Constitution ,, they may be consulted with decided benefit , haying bestowed the greatest Attention to this melancholy Prostration ot tho most important Fuuotions of Nature . Their Mode of Treatment will invariably be found to arrest the progress of these destructive diseases , and be the tneans of restoring the sufferer to renewed health and vigour both of mind and body . The principal consulting surgeon has had vast opportunities of studying these malignant diseases in all their varied aspects , having for a lengthened period confined his attention tboreto , in one of tho principals hospitals in the kingdom , during which time he had the honour of rcceiviug high Testimonials to the skill and perseverance he had displayed in this particular branch . These documents are open to tho inspection of any of their patients who may desire , for their own satisfaction , to sec them . Subsequently , an extensive private practice in London - has afforded ample opportunities of proving the efficacy of their mode of treatment . < To patients at a distance W . and Co . offer , tho most certain assurances of a euro . During the lasr ten years great numbers of both sexes have been effeotually cured , who have merely sent in writing an accurate description of their complaint . All letters , containing the usual consultation fee of £ 1 , receive immediate attention , and suitable advice , and Medicines to the amount are promptly forwarded . In all cases the utmost SECRECY may be relied od , % Wilkinson and Co . ekher destroy tho letters , or return them , as the parties may desire . They have , however , in several instances , succeeded in effecting so rapid and effectual a cure , that the patients havu kindly forwarded to them , without solicitation , letters of reference , with the full name and address , which thoy have authorised Dra . W . to make use of , with the view of encouraging others to avail themselves of their advice . These lettere are not intended for publication , but they will be submitted to patients who desire to inspect them . In packing the parcels , the greatest care is observed , so as to secure tbo safety of the Medicine , and to prevent suspicion—giving them the appearance of an ordinary package . Experience has enabled W , and Co . to produce a remedy which is beneficial in every stage of disease ; and for accommodation of either sex , where , from any motive , parties may decline application , cither personally or by letter , their PURIFYING DROPS . Price 4 s . b'dM may b 9 used with the most decided , success . No Medicine has ever been offered to the public which has been bo ffficacious in restoring the diseased to health and vigour . They are powerful and speedily efficacious , in recent as weU as the most confirmed oases . A TREATISE of Twelve Pages , is enclosed with them , describing tbo various formB of the disease , and tho direciona are I so plain that persons of either sex may adopt the j necessary courso of treatment , so as to effect a por-I feet cure . —To be had of any of their Agents , or sent free by pobt , en the receipt of Five Shillings . At the earnest solicitation of many of their patients , Wilkinson and Co . have published a Work on the diseases of the Organs of Generation , entitled THE SECRET MEDICAL ADVISER .

" The various forms of bodily and mental weakness , incapacity , suffering and disease , faithfully delineated in this cautiously written and practical work , are almost unknown , generally misunderstood , and treated on principles correspondingly erroneous and superficial , by the present race of medical practitioners . Hence the necessity for the publication of a timely safeguard , a silent yet friendly monitor , or , where debility has made threatening inroads , the moans of escape and the certainty of restoration . The evils to which' the book adverts are extensive aud identical in their secret and hidden origin , and thoro are none to whom , as Parents , Guardians , Heads of Families , and especially of Public Schools , is confided the care of young people , who- ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and those balutary cautious this work is intended to convoy . Not only are the most delicate forms of gonerative debility neglected by the family physician , but they require for their safe management the exclusive study of a life entirely abstracted from the routine of general practise , and ( as in other departments of the profession ) attentively concentrated iu the daily and long continued observation requisite for tha correct treatment of sexual infirmities . " If we consider the topics touched upou either in i a moral or social view , we find the interests and welfare of mankind seriously involved . The effects of licentious , indiscriminate and secret indulgence m cortain practices , are described with an accuracy and force which display at once profound reflection and extensive practical experience . "—The Planet . " The best of all friends is the Professional Friend , and in no shapa can ho be consulted with greater safety and secrecy than in "Lucas on Manly Vigour . " The initiation into vicious indulgence—its progress—its results in both sexes , are given with faithful , but alas ! for human nature , with afflicting truth . However , tho Authors have not exposed the evi ) without affording a remedy . It showa how " Manly Vigour" temporarily impaired , and mental and physical emasculation , produced by uncontrolled indulgence of the passions , can be restored ; how the sufferer , who has pined in anguish I from the consequences of earlv indiscretion—afraid j almost to encounter his fellow-man , oan regain the j vigour of health and moral courage . Tho work is written in a concise and perspicuous style j displaying how often fond parents are deceived by . the outward physical appearance of their youthful I offspring ; how the attenuation of tho frame , palpi- j tation of tho hfiflrt , derangement of the neryous j system , cou ^ h , indigestion , and a train of symptoms i indicative of consumption or general decay , are often j ascribed to wrone causes ; and instead of being tho J natural results of congenital debility or disease , arc j the oonsequeiifles of an alluring and pernicious prae- i tice , alike destructive to the mind aud body . "—BeWs New Weekly Messenger " "Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for the expression of opinion upon the merits of a i medical work , this remark is open to exception in any instance where the public , and not the isolated and exclusive members of the profession , arc the parties addressed . Upon that which is directed to men indiscriminately , the world will form its own I opinion , end will demand that medical works for popular study should be devoid of that mysterious technicality in which the science of medioiue has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance . The work before us treats of subjects we believe Renerally , yet very strangely , neglected by the medical attendant , and requiring doubtlessly ( as in operative midwifery and tho surgery , of-tho eye ) an entire devotedness to a deeply important branch of study . Thn tone of this book is highly moral , and it abounds in wellwritten , harrowing , yet oorrect displays of tho snffering consequent upon unbridled sensualism . No human being can be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a beacon , a well-told appeal to reason , a pcrmanet blessing . It is written in a clear intelligible style , and is evidently the production of a mind long and practically conversant with tho diseases of the most delicate division oi tho human organization , "— The Magnet . " The security of happiness ia the marriage state is the ohiei anxiety of all ; but many dread entering upon wedded union , through a secret fear of unfitness for tho discharge of matrimonial obligations . This essay ie moat particularly addressed to all suffering under a despondency of the character alluded to ; and advice will be found calculated Lo cheer the drooping heart , and point the way to renovated health . " Messrs . Lucas & Co . are to be daily consulted from tea till two , and from fivo till eight in the evening , at their residence , No . 60 , Newman-street , Oxford-street , London . Country Patients are requested to be as minute as possible in the detail of their cases , as to the duration of the complaint , tho symptoms , age , general habits of living , and occupation in life of the party .

      THE BEST MEDICINE IN THE WORLD ] BEAD ! AND JUDGE FOB YOUBSELV £ S J ! THE following statement of facts has been coQ . municated to the Proprietors of PARR'S LIFE PILLS :- ^ Messrs . T . Roberts and Co . ' Malton , Jan . 30 , 1843 . Gentlemen , —Though it is but a very short timg since I last wrote for a supply of Parr ' s Life Pills , \ find that owing to an astonishing increase in the sa , le of them , I am again compelled to request you td send me twenty dozen of the small , as also a supply of the large size . I should wiBh you to forward them by railway to York , thence by carrier , as early as possible , as I am afraid my present stock . will be ex . hausted before they reach me . I enclose you the case of a person who resides in Malton , and whose testimony may be relied upon as being strictly correct . This is but one case selected from an almost incredible number of others , which have come under my notice , in which cures have been effected by the use of Parr ' s Life Pills . Many highly respectable persons in this neighbourhood , who previous to the introduction of Parr ' s Life Pills had a decided dislike to Patent Medicines , are now thankful that they an able to add their testimonials to the beneficial effeit ! of these pills . By forwarding me , without delay , th « quantity of pills as ordered above , you will oblige , Gentlemen , yours , respectfully , J . WRANGHAM . Gentlemen , —When I consider the very great relief 1 have experienced from the use of Parr Life Pills , I think it not only to be my duty to you but to every one who may be suffering from similar com * plaints with which I have been afflicted , to make mj astonishing case as public as possible . For a long time past I have been greatly troubled with a most severe neryous complaint , giddiness , aud 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 in * duced to try various medicines , but found that my complaint instead of diminishing , was daily growing worse . Having fortunately heard of the beneficial offects of Parr ' s Life Pills , I resolved to give thems fair trial , though I must confess with but little hopes of deriving benefit from them , after having tried so many other medicines without success ; 1 immediately purchased s small sized box of Mr . Wrang . ham , 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 I have just finished taking this one box , 1 find myself so farrelieved ' that instead of paily , nay hourly , suffering from that dreadful com * plaint , nervousness , with its attendant miseries , I am restored to my former good health ; my nerves are strong—the giddiness and swimming in my head ara totally removed , and I am now able to attend regularly to my trade . Allowing you to make whatever use you may think proper of this statement and being 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 &ny enquiries respecting the good the pills have done ma . To Mr . T . Roberts and Co ., Crane Court , Fleetstreet , London . A most extraordinary Case ofCurecommunicated by Mrs . Moxon of York . Mrs . Mathers , of that City , had for many yean been affected with a most inveterate dise ase , which her medical attendants pronounced to be Cancer . It originated in her breast , and continued to spread nearly all over her body , defying every effort ofsni " gicai ekilL Parr ' s . Life Pills being recommend ^ to her , she resolved to give them a trial ; and , speaking of the result , she says she cannot express the incoaceivable advantage which she haa already derired from them . She further states that she is non almost well , and ascribes her convalescence sold ] to the persevering use of that sovereign medicini Parr ' s Life Pills . From F . Mattheisz , Jaffra , Ceylon Jaffra , October I 7 th , 1842 . Sir , —I beg te inform you that having undertaken the small supply of the celebrated Parr ' s Life PiHs , lately received nere from you by the Rev . P . Percival , they have met with a very rapid gale , and the constantly increasing demand from every part of tha province ensures to a very large extent success to the dealer , and good to the people at large . May I therefore take the liberty of requesting you will be good enough to send me 1000 boxes by tho very first opportunity , making , if you please , the usual discount to purchasers of such large quantities . I beg to remark that the value of the above will be given by me into the hands of the Rev . Mr . Peroival , who haa kindly offered to be responsible to you fo tha same . I remain , your obedient ervant . F . MATTHEISZ . Please address me F . Mattheisz , Jaffra , Ceylon . From Mr . R . Turner , Levrton . To Messrs . T . Roberts & Co ., Crane Court , Fleet Btreet , London . Lenton , near Nottingham , Dec . 12 , 1842 . Dear Sir . —I beg loave to tender you my waraesj thanks for the great benefit which I have reciered I from your valuable Parr ' s Life Pills in the cure of 1 distressing species of fluttering , or palpitation of w I heart , which I experienced some years , and which n « I now , by the use of three small boxes of your invala * able medicine , entirely left me ; and indeed , I no * enjoy better health aud spirits than I have doneft ' some time . Hoping you will , fcr the benefit of U " public at large , make my case known , I remain , Gfli ' tlemea , yours , very gratefully , RICHARD TURNER N .

      Cowahdlt Oirraage.—An Attempt At Incendiarism Vras Made On The Premises At No. 12, Catherine

      Cowahdlt OirraAGE . —An attempt at incendiarism vras made on the premises at No . 12 , Catherine

      " Wlieel-klley , near Bishopsgate-Htreet , on Thursday ni » ht , the 26 th xHU , as late aa twelve o'clock , by Ecme evil-disposed niccreant throwing a case containing some comestible article wrapped pp in a qtisnuly of old rags EOaked in turpentine into the cellar of the house occupied by industrious hardworMag people . The case "which was thrown , immediately exploded , and of course alarmed the lodgers , -who had retired to rest , and on their

      coming down stairs from their beds they immediately E&Te the alarm . Three policemen were " in a few xninntes on the spot , ud discovered the vill&nouB act in time to save the row of houses from being burnt to the ground , for had the loud explosion not taken place the premises most hare been fired . The BtmoBt exertions are on foot to discover the guilty wretchj and ~ strong suspicions attach to a neighbour , who has repeated ]; been heard to say that she wonld not rest till she saw the several hoDses opposite in flames .

      Heisubss BoiBEaT . —On Monday , a sailor , who had been paid off in the morning , went into a pablichouse in Tower-street to get" a glass of ale * when a fellow with a dog , having a eollar on it , followed him and entered into conTersaiion with the sailor . A third , who appeared a stranger to both , followed , and entered the > ame place at the same time , ana after a short time laid a wager of £ 10 with the sailor Ih&t the latter oonld not unlock the dog ' s collar—a w&ger whieh-was instanly accepted by the thoughtless tar . The proposer of the -wager put down fi ^ e sovereigns and a £ 5 note—an example instantly followed by the sailor , vrho made several ineffectual effort 3 to open the padlock of the collar . Tken the owner of ihe dog Baid it waa useless to make any further efforts , and-went away -with his dog , quickly followed by the supposed stranger , who in the first

      instance proposed the -wager , and -who upon his de-? artnre took up the sailor ' s instead of his own money , he sailor proceeded to deposit the other £ 10 in hi 3 fob , when a looker on , who suspected that all was not right , advised him to eount his cash . Upon his doing so , instead of good and lawful coin of the realm , " he fonnd substituted a flash £ 5 note and Eve connterfeit sovereigns . The poor fellow ' s distress at the unexpected denouement may be more easily conceived than expressed . Dnring the greater part of the day he was pacing up and down Tower-Btreet , Thames-stree : , and their vicinity , deploring Mb loss , as he intended to have brought home to his family the whole of his savings . It is needless to sdd thsi the two felloe were accomplices , who had dodged the poor s&ilbi from the broker ' s office wiuri he was paid .

      The Sabbath obser-vtsg Scotch . —Tho Sibb ^ th and its observances in Scotland have occasioned some Barcrise to Qneen Victoria , some admiration , sope amnsemeat , and eoma disgust . On the first Sunday the rain fell in torrents , while the decent Highlanders of Blair Athol repaired quietly to the meek little parish church , with the sole object and expectation of worship . There too arrived Victoria , frith tie same purpose—bent on joining her Scotch salj-cts in worshipping the " Father of all" after the manner of their country . The Q . aeen ' 3 presence was Tsccgnised , bat most emphatically so in the decorous firmness to restrain the wandering eye , and to maiatain , \ rita a simple , dignified Bslf-respect , respect for the sacrtd Occupation of the Qaeeu—resjeci for the sacred

      edifice . One spirit reigned over all , consecrated to ihe day and the place . Not the pit -at the Opera- j konse is more densely crowded—mure " hot , more Staring , more vnlsarly irreverent , than the aadienea i that burst into the little church las : Sunday ; gathering from the nearer toTTBs , usurping the seats of the village congregation—climbing , pushing , leaning over , and dodging heads to sea the sight—the Qaeen at her devotions 1 The " house of prayer , " if not made a " ** den of thieves" for the nonce , was pol-Inied by the sacrilege of idle curiosity . The exhibition over , the sight-seers rnshed from- the holy fane Bad from the retired glens . back to their streets and evening compotations . Queen Victoria was first struck bv the simple decorum of the Highland

      villagers and clansmen ; now by the brutal coarseness uf the Scotch townsfolk , that made a showroom of St place of worship—a show of their Quern . Even the Brighton hnstlers were less indecent . Was it for this that she was prepared by Sir Andrew Agnew ^ s impudent letter , telling her how "Sabbath-© bserving ' a people are the Scotch , and warning her Dot to set a bad examp l e ! Let the Pharisee I pok-at hora& - Did the strangers from England treed thi 3 untimely riot , in a place less consecrated to them ihsn to ine Scotch 1 Sir Andrew ' s countrymen make the cay of rest gloomy , deny themselves most of the everyday-enjoyments , except good eating

      and drinking ; but put a show in their way , and ii Beems no usage , no courtesy , bo reverence for holy things can preserve decency among them . Perhap 3 there majbs even "breaches" of the Sab ath -which might teach the good tasi-e here ntterly wanting , and a detpcr veneration of spirit . In spite of Sir Andrew ' s lecture , the Queen is likely to dissent from the good laste © Tih' : s " SabbattobierviBg , " aud to doubi whether ± "urhanical Scotland exhibitsscc ' great reYerenca for Eacred thing 3 as it professes .
