WIOTHERS . ON MOTHERS have depended in all ages the strength and well-being of Empires . Every well regulated state has possessed laws directly subversive of all that might 'injure the development of mind , retard the improvement of morals , or been destructive to the physical beauty of-the female form . This feature in good government was not peculiar merely to the independant States of ancient Greece , but stands out in bold relief apon the pages of Roman history ; their statute books being filled with provisions for ennobling thei female character J etamping the hardy race of R » m&ns as the most philosophical among the learnedj the greatest among the free , and best qualified of all others to give laws to the world . How necessary this was to their success or to the success of any great empire remains to be considered ; and the downfall of each xs without doubt traceable to the indifference and neglect with which the rights of their women have been treated ; On this subject one of the most powerful writers of the day has the following : — " The soeial influence of woman will appear more obvious , if we notice a little-more in detail the circumstances over which she exercises a direct and almost exclusive control , iu the training and education pf the individuals of which soeioty is composed . In the first place may be noticed her great influence over the physical Well-being and happiness of man . It is from the mother that the physical constitution of the humaa being ia ohi&fly derired , and it more generally partakes of : her peculiarities of bodily and mental endowment than of the other parent . The healthy structure of tha child's fj . * ame , it need scarcely be said , depends for the most part on the mother . And of how great importance' is health to the human being ! Is it not the basis of all moral and mental development , and absolutely indispensable to tho enjoyment of happiness ; either of mind or of body ? Next in . value to health of mind , is health of body . Good health is .. happiness , and success , as ill health is misery and defeat in the great struggle of life . The one is the most terrible be ^ ueathmerit which a parent can give to a child ; the other is auiuheritance above all price or purchase , and without which life can never be enjoyed as it ought to be / ' How necessary ihea is it that mothers should not o ^ Iy study their health but be made acquainted with a safe , oheap , and infallible remedy for the numerous disorders incident to the human frame . As a prombt&r of health and a remover of physical debility Parr ' s Life Pills stand unparalleled in the history of patent medicines . Tens of thousands among the working and middle classes ' - . as- well as hundreds ' among the aristocracy have been cured by their use when all other prescriptions have failed . Cases of extraordinary cures in Leeds as well as elsewhere , are occurring daily , to the truth of which the medicine vendors , Mr . Heatori , Messrs . Bell-and Brooke , Mr . Smeeton , Mr . Reinliardt , and Mr > Jp shua Hobson , will most gladly testify . The following has just been received from Mr . Heat jn : — To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . ' * Gentlemen , —I am happy to inform you that wo are daily hearing accounts of the good effects of Parr ' s Life Pills ; to enumerate the cases would be a task too formidable for ine , and which has prevented iny writing to inform you before , as I can hardly tell where to begin . Orteman said he wanted a box of- Life Pills , for Life Pills they were to him , they hid done him so much good , in relieving him of an obsunate cough and asthma . " Another said they were worth their weight in gold ! as he wa 3 not like the same man since he had taken them . "Another said his wift had had a bad leg for years , but after taking oho small box , which was recommended by his Class Leader , her leg was much better , and when she had taken the second box , it 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 Life Pills ha was quite a new man .

" Exlratt of a Letter from Mr . William Hick , I Northern Star Office , Leeds . ^ * Leeds , Feb . 22 , DM 2 . "Gentlemen , —Your pUl 3 axe teally doing immense good in Leeds ; to particularize cases would be useless , and would occupy too great a spaca , suffice itte say that 0110 iudividual who had been long confined , to his bed , under the care of a doctor , and propped up with pillows , has been completely restored by taking a few poxes . The pills have been particular-ly useful to married women afflicted with headache and general debility ^ a 3 also to some afiliccod with every kind of disorder ; and it is worthy of remark , that maviy talented iadividuala who nave been accustomed to rail- at all advertised remedies , now frankly confess to me that Parr ' s Life Pills are really-a good medicino , and worthy of general adoption , lam Gentlemen , Yours , respectfully , W .

To no one is health so important as to the Working Man , when deprived of it his means of subsista , nea ate auapsnded andhia sufferings aggravated by r- flections © a bis . poverty , and the helplessness . of his family . ¦' . These- ' . ' Pill's are not put forth as a cure for ail diseases , but their use will avert much of the illness usually affecting the Working Classes .

VAIiUABI » XS WOSSS . Just published , prico 2 s , 12 mo . bound in cloth , FIFTEEN LESSONS ON THE ANALOGY AND SYNTAX OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE , for tho usa of adult persons who have neglected the study of Grammar . BY WILLIAM HILL . The Lessons , in this Work , are intended solely for the use of natives . They are divested ^ therefore of all those hair's-breadth distinctions and unnecessary subdivisions in . Analogy , which , if at all usetui , cart only bo useful to foreigners . , The science of Grammar is disentangled , in this Work from the folds of mysticism which have bo long enshrouded it . The absurd and unmeaning technicalities , which pervade all other Wvrks on Grammar , are exchanged for terms which liavo a definite and precise meaning , illustrative of the things they . represent .. The Parts of Speech are arranged on an entirely new principle , founded on a Philosophical Consideration of the Nature of Language , and applicable to all Languages . The necessary . Divisions and Subdi visions are rationally accounted for ; and the Principles of Universal Grammar demonstrated , so fully that the meanest capacity may understand them as clearly as it understands that two and two make four . . . ¦ ¦ - ¦ . ¦ . . ;/ . .. . ¦; .. ¦ In Syntax , the formation of the English Language is exclusively consulted , -without any unnecessary reference to other Languages . A majority of the numerous Rules given in most Grammars are shown to be little better than a heap of senseless Tautology . The necessary Rules are demonstrated upon rational Principles , and illustrated , by a variety of Example . By the Use of this Book and its accompanying Exercises , any person may , in a few weeks , acquire a good knowledge of Grammar without any of the disgusting drudgery , which , under the present Systemj prevont ? nine out of ten from ever acquiring a knowledge of Grammar at all . THE FOLLOWING TESTIMONIALS OF THE PRESS , Selected from a host of similar ones , may convey some idea of the public estimation in which this Work is holden : — " Mt . Hill ia evidently an original thinker . He attacks , with ability and sucoeas , the existing system of English Grammar , and points out the absurdities with which it is encumbered . Justly condemning the too frequent practice of making pupils commit portions of Grammar to mtmory as tasks , he maintains thai the only proper way to the memory is through the understanding . . . . It is but justice to him to say that , in a few pages , he givea a more clear and comprehensive view of the structure ef the English language than can be found in some very elaborate works .

MEDICAL ADVICE . TO THE AFFLICTED WITH SCURVY , VENEREAL , Oft SYPHILITIC DISEASES , RHEUMATISM , AND NERVOUS OR SEXUAL DEBILITT . MR M . WILKINSON , SURGEON , &c . 13 , Trafalgar Street , Leeds . And every Thursday , at No . 4 , George Street , Opposite East Brook Chapel , Bradford , HAVING devoted his studies for many years exclusively to the varioua diseases of the generative and nervous system , in- the removal of those distressing ; debilities arising from a secret indulgence in a delusive and destructive habit , and to the successful treatment of VENEREAL AND SYPHILITIC DISEASES , Continues to bo consulted from nine in tho morning till ten at night , and on Sundays till two , —and country patients requiring his assistance , by making only » ne personal visit , will receive such advice and medicines as will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual cure , when all other means have failed . In recent cases of a certain disorder a perfect cure is completed in one week , or no charge made for medicine after that period , and in those cases where other practititioners hare failed , a perseverance in his plan , without restraint in diet , or hindranca from business , will ensure to the patwnt a permanent aad radical cure . It frequently happens that in moments of thoughtlesshess a person imbibes a disease where suapioion is least likely to bo excited' ; this state of security leads to a . want of caution which aggravates the nature of the complaint . But where immediate application is made , the corroding poison is checked in its infancy , smothered ere it takes root , and destroyed before its venom can effect a perceptible appearance in the system ^—Where thei disease has been allowed t » exist and remain , the more cause have we to fear the Hadermining influence of this poison , aHd a mere removal of its external appear ^ anceis not to be depended upon ; a thorough cure must be achieved to prevent aretura of ^ the disease , and leave the system free from all infection . A complete knowledge of the symptoms and treatment of these insidious and dangerous diseases , can only be acquired by those who are in daily practice , and have previously gone through a regular course of Medical Instruction ; for , unfortunately , there are hundredd who annuany fall Viotims to the iguorant use of Mercury and other dangerous remedies , admimstcred by illiterate men , who ruin the constitution by suffering disease to get into the system , which being carried by the circulation of the blood into all parts of the body , the whole frame becomes tainted with venereal poison , and mosi unhappy consequencea ensue , at one time affectmg the skiu , particularly the head and face , with eruptions and ulcers , blosely resembling , and often treated as scurvy , at another period producing the most violent pains in the limbs and bones , which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism ; thus the whole frame becomes debilitated and decayed , and a lingering death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings . What a grief for a young person in the very prime of life , to be snatched out of time , and from all th « enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at first , aud which never proves fatal if properly treated , as all its fatal results are owing either to neglect or ignorance . Mr . W . ' s invariable rule is to give a Card to each of his Patients as a guarantee for cure , which he pledges himself to perform , or return his fee . For the accommodation of either sex , where distance or delicacy prevents a personal visit , his PURIFYING DROPS , price 4 s . 6 d ., can be had of any of the follow , ing agents , with printed directions bo plain , that they ' may cure themselves without even the knowledge of a bed-fellow . They are particularly recommended to be taken before persons enter into the matrimonial state , lest the indiscretions Ot a parent are the source of vexa * tion to him the remainder of his existence , by afflicting his innocent but unfortunate offspring wilh the evil eruptions of the malignant tendency , and a variety of other oomplaints , that are . most assuredly introduced by the same neglect and imprudence .

BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS . CASE FBOMLUTON , BEDFORDSHIRE , COMMUNICATED BY MR . FH 1 LLIPS , CHEMIST AND DRUGGIST , TO MR T . PROVT , 229 , STRAND , LONDON . Luton , Bedfordshire , Oct . 19 , 1841 . SIR , —I feel desirous of expressing to you the great benefit which I have received from the use of Blair ' s Gout aud Rheumatic Pills . I have for several years been afflicted with Rheumatism and Gout , the attacks . ' of which were excessively severe . During one of these painful visitationa a kind friend presented me \ 7 ith a box of . Blair ' s Pills , from the use of which I found immediate relief , and very soon entirely recovered . At a subsequent period I was so severely attacked that I thought it would be unwise to delay p lacing myself under medical care . I did so ; but not finding the relief which I expected , I again became my own physician . At this time my " legs and thig hs were swelled to a very great extent . I immediately' procured a box of Blair ' s Pills from Mr . W . Phillips , your agent in this tewn , and after taking- -two dosca 1 > vas free from pain , and the swelling subeided . I now never fail to use them whenever I am attacked by this painful malady , and they invariably give me relief after ose or two doses . Several of my acquaintances use them , and experience the same benefit . I trust you will insert this among your list of cases , as 1 am anxious to bear witness to the efficacy -of this excellent medicine . I am , Sir , your ' s respectfully , Richabd Stone . Sugar Loaf , London Road , Lutoh . The never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC FILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism , have secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicino of past or pf esent times . They not only give relief in a few hours , where the patient has been driven nearly to madness by the excruciating tortures of this disease j but restore to perfect health in an inconceivably shore space of time . They are equally speedy and certain in rheumatism , either chronic or acute , lumbago , sciatica , pains' in the head or face , and indeed for every rheumatic or gouty affection ; in fact , such has been the rapidity , perfect ease , and complete safety of this medicine , that it has astonished ali who have taken it , and there is not a city , town , or village in the kingdom , but contains many grateful evidences of its benign influence .

He begged before he sat down to announce that it -was their intention to allow , * n all occasions . free discussion , therefore he hoped they vculd give de lecturer a patient and attentive hearisg , aftrr- ^ hich , equal jostiee should be observed tofrcrJs asy person

Mi- Ross , -wat >' had been appointed to leciure , then ' advanced to the ; front of the platform , amid the applause of the meet ? ing , and observed that he ftJt especial pleasure at the excellent remark tf their worthy Chairman , in tro- ; mising that any individual who might dissent from . ^ lything he might adTatce , shonld be ailo-wed the op- portuidty to do so . The lecturer then gave a . true but ; awfol desciiptioa of the conuition of the people . , -and declared that .- the people themse Ives .. by their . o ~ wn unity , sobriety , intelligence , and perse- j Terance , must certainly obtain their emancipation . He felt convinced that the remedy for the minifoU \ evils tincer wtidi the i / eople were Euffirinz -was con-J
tainc-c only in tae ^ priarlples of t £ e People ' s Charttr . Mr . K 033 tbeu said , that he had been t : > Id that be vfould j injure himself by joining the Chartists ; ar . d signiied \ that when he saw Mb fellow countrymen starving he ' ¦ was compelled—in behalf of his own interest , btcause it wax involved in equal representation , —to give his bumble support to that body of men whom he tbcu ^ ht ; best calcuiated . to emancipate himself and felio-w-men Irom slavery and poli ; iakl bondage . The lecturtr then j said , that ha was prepared to prove that the step he i had taken was a preper one . He then comrntnted on 1 the conduct of the middle class towards the p- _ -opl «; acd showed thi impottacy of the League . He dwdt on the conduct of botli Whigs and Tories , and conu-nded thstihe people had been croeified l >* -t- !? is : t the two base factions .
The League- -was no * snuk . and the Chartists -were in ; the asctndarit Had the Whiea performed their duty ; Tcrysm -sreuid have been buried for ever . The speaker - then shewed clearly the artifical and unnatural position ' of the people , and strongly denounced a system which i put sinews , blood , and bone , to compete with vre-od , Btttua , and iron ; ana invoked the powers of G- ^ -d —o £ ; tumanity and jasiice , to pat an tnd to it He then , shewed clearly that the sjstem fostered and perpetus-ed ' jgnorancs and crime , and that thousands were victin ; s to \ it , robbbu of tneir freedoia for i ^ vsg good , and taunted i ¦ with ignorance , and despised for it by the makers .. ind j framers cf the law . Mr . Boss macs some po » -tr ; a ! . " effective , and cutting allusions to the fate of the patriots Frost , Williams , and Jones , and ursed exertioria for
tfceir restoratioiL He dwelt at some ltzigth on the proud position of the Chartists as a political body , cautioned them against any specious yet deciitful claptrap waieh would be sorted by the factions to lead * them from the scent of the Charter agitation , which -would , if fcithfully sabered to , properly watched , and persevered in , lead teem to the goal of libeily . He compared the education of the -working classes , and challenged the '" fustians - $ -j be superiors in politicV ! fcaowl&i ie to theclass-lGiliy-enacited . He manfully enforced the principles of t-f » t . 2 abstinence ; and explained tb ? resources of Great Britain , the still and enterprise of her inhabitants as compared with those of foreign nations .

The ppeater stewed , ttie consequenc- ; of the thousands of people who were , by the j sjrsfcem , forced to leave the land of their birch , and described in impressive but thrilling language the tdght of friends End relations parting st the deck . He compared the condition of the handloom weavers 25 or 20 yearsa ? o \ r- ; th their present one , showir . g how they '
Jiad beenrobbetl of the necessaries and comforts of life . He spoke for npwsida of an hour and a halt , ann concluded by stating that some of the myrmidons of the Le 3 gue had said that he Lai previously received some of their money , but hs dec l ared before heaven and that meeting , that lie nevtr received one sincle f .-action f ;< m them , and sat do's- !! 1-aiij- applauded In the eTeuirsg there ¦ sras a very enthusiastic assembly , a greater number present tLm in thp . attemoon .

The aristocracy of this coun ' j-y ) had wrun ? their wealth from the heart ' s blood of the ; working cissies rf this kingdom , and had squandered ; a ^ ray that wealth in crushing the liberties of tbeir
j / eiiow-men .. He vras surprised at the iafatuatiovi of his I fellow-men , -who had so long supported this wretched ; sysUm ; but this surprise vanished when he reflected ' oa the leujith of time that the aristocracy bad wielded the power and the resources of the nati'jn .

He had ever couDSf-Hsd his fellow men to
tnrvjw aside the s ! r . v : sa doctrine of humility preached by a time-serving cla ? s of priests . Consider yourselves as men , equal ^ ith ycur fellow intn . They tell you that . the aristocracy have besn born to govern , and yea to obey ; that ij was ordained by Providence that you should cra-wl and like spaniels lick the feet ofthoBe vrho Epurn you . Xot content with the power t-f the laws and of the ma ^ isirates . they tell you of an ever-burning gulf over which you will be suspended for ever if yuu dispnie tbeir mandates ; and by means like these the state priesia have ever ui £ ed the cause of despotism , have crushed the native inMleettul dignity of man and recuced him to a serf and a slave ; but he congratulated thtm tbat this feeling was fast dying away , that the inherei . t right of kings and governors was become not only a matter of eceptism , but of ridicule and contempt ; and before the spread of information which was now bo mightily advancing , these baubles ¦ woxild disappear like mists before the rising sun ;
union alone has given rise to the power of the aristocracy , and once let us unite , let us make the National Charter Association the Polar star of our attraction , and we shall be able , to repel all the efforts of our enemies , as the knotted oak which stands firm before the passing tempest , or as tha mighty rotk which dashes iiito their spray the waves which beats against it . it the working ciass&s knew tbeir own power the present system would not Btand forty-eight hours . Mr . Bairstow then showed the necessity of the trades uniting for the Cbsrter , showing the facilities thry had for that purpose , and concluded a long and powerful adddreas by exhorting them to rally round the Conven ' . ion and to mutter in all their strength and majesty ou the day of the presentation , and make it such a day as London bad never before seen .
