Sir , —The Lord has permitted to be wrought a wonder-, ful cure of caucers or abcesses , of twelve years' standing , in my wife ' s breast In the latter part of the time , eleven wounds were open at once . The faculty declared the case as past cure , several pieces of bone had come away , and I ' expected that my poor wife would soon have been taken from me . It was then that a friend recommended the use of youv pills aud ointment , which , to . our utter astonishment , in the space of about three months , healed up the breast as soundly as ever it was in her life .

Sir , —I beg to inform you that I believe I had been , for . more than three years , one of the greatest sufferers in the ' world with chronic asthma . For weeks together my I breath was frequently so short that I was afraid every ? moment of being choked with phlegm . I never went into a bed ; very often , indeed , I have been obliged to pass the night without being able to recline sufficiently to lay my head on a table , lest I should be suffocated . No one thought I should live over the winter , nor did I expect it myself ; but I anihappy tosay that I am now able to work from morning to night , and that I sleep as well as ever 1 did in my life ; » nd this miracle ( I may say ) was effected '" by rubbing your invaluable ointment twice a day iuto my * chest , and taking ten of your pills at bedtime , and ten again in the morning , for about three months . £ ( SigHed ) ,- ¦ ¦¦ Jebesiiah Ca ' set ...-In all Diseases of ihe Skin , bad legs , old wounds and a ulcers , bad breasts , sore nipples , stony and ulcerated cans cers , tumours , swellings , gout , -rheumatism , aud lumbago , ° likewise in cases of Piles , Holloway ' s Pills in all the above ?

"We regard tte work before us , the "Silent Friend . " as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of comiJaints hitherto little understood , and passed over by the majority of the medical profession , for what reason we are at a loss to know . We must , however , confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable uqjressiou on our minds , that we not only recommend , bat cordially \ rish every one who' is the victim of past folly , or sufferiHg from indiscretion , to profit by the advice contained in its pages . "—Age and Argus . " The Authors of the " Silent Friend" seem to be thoroughly conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are , we fear , too prevalent in the present day . The pevspiciums style in which thisbook is written , and the valuable hints it conveys to those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage stale , cannot fail to recommend it to a careful perusaL "— £ »¦« . " This work should be read by all who value health and wish to enjoy life , for the truisms therein contained defy all doubt . —Farmers' Journal . TEE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM Is intended to relieve those persons , who , by an immoderate indulgence of their passions , have ruined their constitutions , or in their way to the consummation of that deplorable state , are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach , as the various affections of the nervous system , obstinate gleets , excesses , ' irregularity , obstructions of certain evacuations , weakness , total impotency , barrenness , &c . ' This medicine is particularly recommended to bo taken before persons enter into the matrimonial state , lest , in the event of procreation occurring , the innocent offspring should hear enstamped upon it the physical characters derivable from parental debility .

Venereal contamination , if not at first eradicated , will often remain secretly lurking in the system for years , and , although for a while undiscovered , at length breakout upon the unhappy individual in its most dreadful forma ; or else , unseen , internally endanger the very vital organs of existence . To those suffering from the consequences which this disease may have left behind In the form of secondary sjmptomB , eruptions of the skin , blotches on the head and face , ulcerations and enlargement of tho throat , tonsils , and threatened destruction of the hose , palate , < fcc ., nodes on the shin bones , or any . of those painful affections arising from the dangerous effects of the indiscriminate use of mercury , or the evils of an imperfect cure , the Concentrated Detersive Essence will be found to be attended with the most astonishing effects , in checking the ravages of the disorder , removing all scorbutic complaints , and effectually , re-establishing the health of the constitution . To persons entering upon the responsibilities of matrimony , and who ever had the misfortune during their more youthful days to bo affected with any form of these diseases , a previous course of this medicine is highly essential , and of the greatest importance , as more serious affections are visited upon on innocent wife and offspring , from a want of these simple precautions , than perhaps half the world is aware of ; for , it must be remembered , where the fountain is polluted , the Btreams that flow from it cannot be pure . : '' - PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS , Price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s .

COPAIBA AND CUBEBS ENTIRELY SUPERSEDED . > WRAT'S BALSAMIC PILLS , a certain , safe , and the most speedy remedy ever discovered for the permanent and effectual cure of strictures , seminal weakness , pains in the loins , affections of the kidneys , gravel , rheumatism , lumbago , gonorrhoea , gleets , local debility , irritation of the . bladder or urethra , and other diseases of the urinary passages . . The unprecedented success that has attended the administration of these pills , since they were made public , has acquired for them a sale more extensive than ; any other proprietary medicine extant , and the circumstance of their entirely , obviating the necessity of having : recourso to those disgusting , nauseous , and in many cases highly injurious medicines ( as copaiba , cubebs , &c ) , has obtained for them a reputation unequalled in the annals of medicine . Prior to being advertised , these pills were employed in private practice in upwards of 1 , 800 cases , many of them most inveterate—in many thousand cases since , and in no one instance known to fail , or to produce those unpleasant symptoms so often experienced while talcing copaiba , and that class of medicines usually resorted to in these complaints . The proprietor pledges himself that not one particle of copaiba , either resin or balsam , cubebs , or any deleterious ingredient , enters their composition ! : Copaiba and cubebs have long been the most commonly employed medicines in the above complaints ; but , from the uncertainty in their effects , together with their utter inefficacy in many cases , are fast declining in reputation ; and , from the unpleasant symptoms invariably produced from taking copaiba , especially in the early stage of the complaint , many of the most able modern practitioners condema it as dangerous , and a medicine not to be depended upon . . Many persons , after having suffered more from the effects of the remedy than the virulence of the disease , and , after a patient but painful perseverance , have boen compelled to relinquish its use , the whole system having become more or less affected , and tho disease , as bad , if not worse , than at the commencement . ; As regards cubebs , it is true th at those violent effects are not experienced as while caking copaiba , but . they seldom effect a cure , unless inwe active medicines are administered . ' : The Balsamic Pills are free from any of the above objections ; they , act specificall y on the urinary passages and , from their tonic properties , tend to strengthen the system , and improve the general health . They require neither confinement nor alteration of diet ( except abstineu . ee from stimulants , where considerable inflammation exists ) , and , as experience has amply proved , they will effect a cure sooner than copaiba ( the dangerous results of which , in the inflammatory stages , are too well known to need comment ) , or any other medicine in present use " and may he justly considered the only safe and efficacious remedy in all stages of those disorders . In addition to these advantages , the very convenient form in which this invaluable preparation is offered to the public , must also a desideratum . . Prepared only by M . O .

Lecture . —Messrs . M'Grath and Doyle addressed a numerous and attentive audience in the Chartist Association-room , on Monday evening . last , on the " Injurious Effects of Class Legislation , " and on the ' Co-operative Land Scheme . " After the addresses , several questions were put to the lecturers , and objections raised to the Land plan , which were answered to the satisfaction of the audience . The Land plan is progressing in " the locality in spite of all the opposition that the " First principle . army , " consisting of some two or three , can raise against it .
, MIDDLETON . Glorious Revival of Cuaiitism is Lancashire . — The following is the speech of William Dixon , delivered upon this auspicious occasion , referred to in Mr . O'Connor ' s letter : — Mr . Dixon on coming forward to move the first resolution , said it was unnecessary for him to tell them that he perfectly coincided with every principle enunciated in the resolution they had just heard read . ^ lie was a Chartist , because he was convinced that justice would never be dealt out to the working man until he was in possession of his full and equal share of political power . Therefore was lie a Chartist . But when he looked at the vast assembly before him , ho felt
persuaded ; that , like all other public meetings , it was composed of persons holding different opinions on different subjects , and likewise that they had been drawn together by various motives ; some , no doubt , had come from curiosity to see what " sort of thing a Chartist - camp-meeting Ayas , others had peril ? . ] * come for the purpose of ridicule , and others for the more Englishman-like purpose of hearing for themselves , and judging accordingly , and there might by some who had como for the bas *> purpose of clutching a warm expression uttered in the heat and excitementofthe moment , in order to report the same to the " powers that be , " to see if they could take any hold of it . However , they were there : and he cared
not what had prompted them to come . They would now hear what Chartism really was . They would now be convinced that it was not the " bugaboo " which the press , the pulpit , and the bar liad represented it . For those parties had painted Chartism in such horrid colours , that weak-minded old men , who had not heard for themselves , trembled , and old women fainted at the very name of it . What is Chartism ? It is the cause of the oppressed against tho oppressors . What is Chartism ?—it is the cause of the many against the tyrannical few . What is Chartism?—it is the cause of . right against might : in fact , to sum up the whole in a word , Chavtisni was the cause of labour , or he would never have lifted
his tongue in its defence . But he was thoroughly convinced that nothing short of the People ' s Charter becoming the law of tho land would rescue him and Ins class from-that - awful state of dependence , poverty , anil destitution , to which the present system had reduced them . Believing this , he felt called upon at all times to do all that lay in his power for the advancement of that cause . It was said by some , "Why , what ' s the use ? We have done all we can do , and we are no nearer than we were . " This was a fallacy . For his part , he saw no reason to despair , but every reason to go on with renewed energy and increased exertion ; for . Chartism was in a prouder position this day than ever it was since the
commencement of the agitation . Now , was it true that they had done all they could do ? In fact , comparatively speaking , they had done nothing . It was true they had attended meetings . It was true that they had held up their hands for resolutions . It was true that some of them had paid their pence , and they had also sent men to Conferences . This they had done ; but they had neither acted up to the resolutions they had agreed to , nor adopted the plans laid down by their representatives in the various Conferences that had assembled to legislate for them , until now ; and , thank God , the time had come when thev wore beginningto work for themselves . He , therefore , saw no reason that , they should faint by the way . In tactthose
, who counted the cast at the commencement or the agitation were hot deceived . Thev knew that m tho stmgglo they would have much tocontend with , many obstacles to overcome , amongst which were those gigantic evils , a corrupt press and an erroneous education . Had wo not been taught in the nursery and the school , that it was our place to tww with serf-like submission to our superiors ?" And the parson ; , too , had done their share in the work of stultifying ^ and bedarkening the intellect of mankind , and making them the easy prey of despots H » PTl ? ndcavoured to cram it down their throats , that it was essentially necessary that the working classes should pine , and starve , here below .
moruertont tnem for bliss hereafter . Is it to be wondered at then , with such a combined phalanx of evils to contend with , that we have made no more progress , than wo have ? But , thank God , the < Uy 9 t delusion has gone by ! Aristocratic and priestly mfluence is on the wane . This is a sure and certain sign that thelday of liberty is dawning .

that they should emulate the ant and tae bee in their industry , and likewise ; take a lesson from them of the manner in which they dispose of the produce of their labour . They toil , it is- true , during the summer , and lay by a store for their winter ' s uso . This is an important lesson for us . It tells hs that , we too , in > the days of our youtliand the vigour of our manhood , ought to be enabled to make a provision for the winter of our days , and not to be left , wjifln traveling the downhill of life , to the tender rabies of the New Poor Law bastile . This we can never do unlesa we have a voice in the distribution of the wealth which . our labour produces , and this can only be accomplished by the Charter becoming a legislativeenactment . W ith these obstacles , in conjunction with
the man-degrading doctrine ol non-resistance | o .. ) yiong , . is it to be wondered at that the people hava ' oeen a little backward in learning their duty ? To tell him that it was the "will of Heaven" that he was to suffer patiently under the manifold aggressions made upon his rights and pcrogatiyes by his fellow man , was to libel the Deity . All nature told him thai such was a false doctrine . He envied not the man who had got it into his head that it was necessary for him to be reduced to a crust , in order to make him fit for future happiness . lie was rather of the opinion that a plentiful supply of roaat beef and plum pudding was better calculated to enable a man to lulfil hi » duties to , God and his neighbour than ' . starvation . Was it not moastrous to imagine that human nature
could be deprived of its feelings , and that a waa could go to his knees and pfay , whilst the ' convulsive sab of a broken-hearted wife issued from one corner , aud the cry of stavving children for bread came from another ? How could such a man thank God for . the comforts which he had received ?—when he had received nothing but insult and starvation , and that not through the " will of Heaven ; " for his Maker had given him an undoubted right to exist , and the means of existence from the soil of his fatherland . It was man alone who had deprived him of those rights . To be patient under such circumstances was indeed criminal . He might be asked from whence he got this doctrine ? He told them , from the .. works of nature , which pointed up
to nature ' s God . He found throughout the universe of animated matter one universal law , namely , that of self-preservation , which compelled the interior animals to protect themselves from aggression , and if need be , to punish the aggressor . The ant was but a small insect , yet there was implanted within it a law which prompted it to protect its labour . Look at the hen surrounded with ; her brood , how she caters for their food ; , and when she has found the grain of , corn , she calls them around her to partake of the fruits of her toil . But should an intruder infringe on the rights of that domestic circle , she will defend it with all the energy of which her little system , is possessed . This surely is a lesson for tho fathers and husbands of England , who have allowed their domestic hearth to be robbed of its sweetest ornament , the cheering smiles of a happy and contented wife , surrounded by her cleanly and healthy children . We have stood coldly and apathetically
by , whilst the ruthless hand ot the oppressor has dragged our wives and little ones into the factory or the loathsome mine , completely reversing the order of nature , making the wives and children toil , whilst the father aud the husband is an unwilliHg idler and a pauper , living upon the blood and vitals of those he loves . It is time that this system of wrong should have an end ; and he hoped that that day was the commencement of England ' s determination to he free . In order to do this , it was necessary for each and all to do their share of the work . It * was in vain for them to think that those gentlemen by whom he was surrounded , those who had stood the heat of the battle , could of themselves accomplish liberty . No . The people must do it themselves if ever it was done . Those gentlemen had come to tell them what was necessary for them to do , hut if tliey neglected to do it , it would be themselves that would be to blame , and not those who had faithfull y pointed out their duty to them .

Tnu Operative Cotion Spinners and Seu-aciixo Mule WowcEns of Scotland to theik Emi-lothis . —Gentlemen , —It will not surel y be considered presumptive on our part in addressingyou on the present occasion . We had considered , irom the continued and increasing prosperity ot \ thc cotton trade , that you would before this have offered to share with us , the producers of wealth , a portion of the additional value given for the products of our industry , consequent upon such a state of trade . Nay , we had even hoped , after the declaration of Sir Robert Peel , on repealing the duty oii cotton , that such repeal was expressl y couceded for the . purppso of bcnefittin « the labouring class , and , considering that the duty in manyinstances amounted to more than is "iven for
^ spinning , we were confiding enough to sup-oso that generosity would have prompted you to give us a portion of the abrogated tax . Considering also the present depreciated price of the raw material , with the advanced and advancing price in yarns , without any feeling being evinced on your part that we should share in any of these advantages , hna lend to the present appeal . Gentlemen , —we have no desire to place ourselves in antagonism to our employers we can but regret that it is sometimes necessarv Let them but bejust to those Yfhose labour enricheVthem , and not a murmur will escape our lips ; but when wo see a desire on their part to absorb as much of the wealth which we produce as they possibly can what else is to be expected than that we should mppt .
combine , and demand a portion of the " lion ' s share . " It has been our lot in times of commercial depression to feel it in all its severity , by reduction following reduction in our wages , while in times of prosperity unless demanded by the workmen , we reap none of its advantages . In looking at the price of yarns in years when 3 id . per shilling was paid for spinning , wo find that they were no higherin some of those years than what they are at present—while the price in the raw material bears no comparative proportion to whatitthenwas . Looking at all these things , is it to be wondered at , that we should " feel dissatisfied with our present condition , and especially in contrastin" it with many other bodies of workmen ? The long aud protracted Lours of unmitigated toil which we have
io penorm , m an artificially heated and impure atmosphere , the rapid decay of our physical energies , aud consequent premature old age , causing us to be put aside as useless lumber , at a period of life which to others is littkv more than their meridian , in order that youtliand Vigour may undergo the same deteriorating process as those whom they Hiperscde have done . Considerations such as these demand that something like an adequate compensation be given lor the sacrifices made , but which we are satisfied is not the case . Another consideration also induces us to make this appeal , namely , the scarcity which is taking place among Piecers , owing to the increasing demand for them , and the facility that young persons Have oi getting into other branches of industry , equally , it not better remunerated , such scarcity necessarily tending to raise the wages of this class ot workers , which , in many instances , is already tho
case . ^ We are anxious and willing that they should Be well paid , that there may be some inducement for them to remain at their present occupation , as well as from motives of humanity . Compare their eamw r laIjour with that of Power-loom Weavers , and they sink far beneath them in the scale ot comfort ; and unless our wages are advanced , so as to enable us to elevate them also , both muster and operative must ultimately suffer . Gentlcincn ,-bucli ot you as . are possessed of self-acting Mules , must be cognisant of the great variation which exists m . the prices paidforthis department of spinningvariations which it is much to be desired vou yourselves should rectify , not by reducing the better paid to the standard of the lower , but by elevating }^ lower to the higher standard , or at least by placing all on a greater degree of equality , but that all shoula w ? od 3 bovetl | eirpresentposition . Gentlemen , —We have heard you alwavs profess that ' it was
nurttul to your feelings to reduce wages , and that it would give you greater gratiGcation to advance them , did the state of trade permit it . The conviction rests on our mind that you have now the opportunity ot proving the sincerity of your professions , if we are a « all to credit the reports of the state of trade and markets , as given in the publicjournals . Resolutions having ken passed at meetings held in various sp in * ning localities of Scotland , expressive of their opinion , that the present state of trade warranted tlm » ot tae propriety of soliciting their employers for a turther advance upon their wages , leaving if to a meeting of delegates from all the different locality to settle the amount which we would ask . Accordingly , a meeting of delegates , to the number ot
seventy was held in the Trades' Hall , Paisley , on Saturday the 9 th inst ., when it was agreed that we solicit our employers for an advance of a halfpenny on the prices paid for hand-spinning at the time of receiving our last advance ; also that threepence per 1000 liankf ot an advance be solicited for self-acting Mules ; -a'ld that it be requested that a distinct answer be returned to our memorial , on or before the 22 n < li m order that the same may be reported to this meeting which stands adjourned till the 23 rd of the preset month . ^ We thus lay our request before you , in " lull confidence that you will cheerfully conccic to «» so reasonable a demand , and that none of you vvi ' endeavour , to evade it by saying that you will &VI it anyother precedes you .
