This is to certify that I , Arthur Harris , if Wineolmlee , Hull , sawyer , have been for many years subject to frequent attacks of severe rheumatism , and never found much relief from medicine until I took , from . recommendation , your valuable Pills , which not only afforded me relief but wrought a cure . Abthuh Haeris . To Mr . Geo . . Kerman , chemist and druggist , Hu ll . You may advertise the cure your medicine has wrought in my case as much as you please . My case was this ; I was a labourer in Wincolmlee , and was attacked with rheumatism in consequence of having unthinkingly , while at work , pulled off a second pair of trowsers "which I had worn as drawers . I was seized with violent pains all over me , which ultimately settled into a violent racking pain ia the hip joint . I had three doctors one after another and used willingly all the means they conld devise without benefit . On my wife ' s asking the last one what he thought to my case , be replied , " Why these cases seldom get better f meaning that it was likely to cost me my life . 1 had so many blisters on one after another that they created a lirge wound . At the time I commenced taking your medicice , it would have taken me most of half an hour to turn round in bed ; and in ten er twelve days I was able to call on you at your own shop . I was really free from pain after taking your medicine three days ; and . indeed , I think sooner than that . I shall be glad to tell any body all particulars about it . Hull , December , 1841 . Thos . Phaiet . I , Samuel Mandum , of Upper Union-street , Hull , Bhipcarpenter , being asked to give a certificate oJ the cure performed by the medicine I was furnished with from Mr . G . Kerman , chemist , I hesitate not for a moment to state that I had a speedy cure of an old standing case of rheumatism . Subsequent to this I had a friend , a person quite in years , who was attacked vrith this painful affection . I recommended him to try Mr . Kennan ' s preparations , and he also got as speedy a remedy as I did myself . _ ¦ _ ,, . Samuel JIakdum . P . S . —My fnend ' a name ia Parker . He resides ttDrvpool .

" 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 upon 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 means of escape and tbe certainty of restoration . The evils to which the book adverts are extensive and identical in their secret ynd hiddtn origin , and there are none to whom , aa Parents . Guardians , Headsof F » wiilic » . * nd especially of public Schools , is confided the care of young people , who ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and those salutary cautions this work is intended to convey . Not only are the most delicate form& . of generative debility neglected by the family physician , but they reauire for their safe management the exclusive study of a life entirely abstracted from the routine of general practice , and ( as in other departments of the profession ) attentively concentrated ia the daily and long continued observation requisite for the correct treatment of sexual infirmities . " If we consider the topics upon either in a moral or social view , we find the interests and welfare oi mankind seriously involved . The effects of licentious , indiscriminate and secret indulgence in certain practices , are described with an accuracy and force which display at one © profound reflection and extensive practical experienoe . "—The PlaneU u The best of all friends is the Phofessional Friend : and in no shape can he be ; consulted with greater safety and secrecy than in " Lucas on Manly Vigour . " The initiation into vicious indulgenceits progress—its results in both sexes , are given with faithful , but alas 1 for human nature , with afflicting truth . However , the Authors have not exposed the evil without affording a remedy . It shows 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 from the consequences of early indiscretion—afraid almost to encounter his fellow man , can regain the vigour of health and moral courage . The work is written in a concise and perspicuous style , display ing how often fond parents aredeceived by the outward physical appearance of their youthful offspring ; how the attenuation of the frame , palpitation of the heart , dcrangemeut of the nervous system , cough , indigestion , and a train of symptoms indicative of consumption or general decay , are often ascribed to wrong causes ; and instead of being the natural results of congenital debility or disease , are the consequences of an alluring and p ernicious practice , alike destructive to the mind and body . "—BeWs New Weekly Messenger . " Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for the expression of opinion upon the merits of a medical work , this remark is open to exception in any instance where the public , and not the isolated and exclusive members of the profession , are the parties addressed . Upon that which is directed to men indiscriminately , the world will form its own opinion , and will demand that medical works for popular study should be devoid of that mysterious technicality in which the science of medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance . The work before us treats of subjects we believe generally , yet very strangely , neglected by the medical attendant , and requiring doubtlessly ( as in operative midwifery and the Burgory of the eye ) an entire devotedncss to a deeply important branch of study . The tone of this book ia highly moral , and it abounds in wellwritten , harrowing , yet correct displays of the suffering consequent upon unbridled sensualism . No human being can be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a warning beacon , a welltold appeal to reason , a permanent blessing . It is written in a clear intelligible style , and is evidently the production of a mind long and practically conversant with the diseases of the most delicate division of the human organization .

LETTER FROM MR . WM . HICK , NORTHERN STAR OFJiCE , LEEDS . " Northern Star Office , Leeds , March 17 th , 1842 . ffrfentlemen , —You will oblige by forwarding , at Vj your earliest convenience , the same quantity of PARK'S LIFE PILLS as last Bent . While I am writing I cannot refrain from communicating the flattering -intelligence of the great good your pills ar « 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 wore especially since its use has contributed bo largel y to . 'the public health . The fact is , however , predjudioo is fast giving way , as it always must where the pills are tried . A few cases in point may serve to confirm and illustrate what I have asserted . ¦ : .. ' jA young female came into the shop to-day for a box , who seated that they had done her immense good . She had been troubled with a hoarseness so bad that no one could h « ar her speak ; but having taken a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PiLLS , sh « was completely restored , as was evident by the way shespoke . "Very many cases of extraordinary cures have occurrfcd among the aged workpeople , both . ' male and female . In one mill , an aged couple , enfeebled by disease and debilitated by premature old ago , had become almost past work ; they were porsuaded to try a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , and in a week wera restored and strengthened that they could pursue their employment with pleasure and profit ; so much % o , 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 overhojurs besides . Bad as trade is here , the old people being favourites with the miU owner , are enabled to get as much employment as they cau do , which has excited the envy of those younger persons who had been employed in their absence ; and it is a laughable fact , that Parr's Pills come in for a share of their rancour . The old people continuo to take the pills regularly in tmall quantities , and find them as necessary to their health and prosperity as their daily food .. ; • • ¦ . - . - . , ¦ ; ¦ " . - . :: ¦ ¦ .. /¦ ¦ " / . ¦¦ ¦^" :- ¦ : ' . ¦¦ ¦; . ;¦ . - . : ¦ " The next and last case which I Bhall mention at this time , is one of a most extraordinary nature . I have not seen the individual myself , but I Bhall give you the faot as I have received it from his employer , and from Mr . J . Hobson , who has frequently seen him since his oonvalesence . The man is a working meohanio and had speHt 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 & long 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 » little , his disorder would have its periodical return ; but being advised to try PARR'S LIFE PILLS , he bought a few boxes , which have completely removed his disease , and enabled him to return to his work , whero lie was seen a few days ago by Mr . Hobson , ( it being dinner hour ) eating beef-steaks with great gusto ; and to whom he recited with pleasure and gratitude the cause of his then healthy condition , together with a long history of hia past affliction ¦ ¦¦' . ¦ yl . . : - ' .

"To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . 11 Gentlemen , —I have the utmost pleasure in forwarding you this my own case of cure . effocted solely by the persevering use of your Parr ' s Life Pills . Before having recourse to them . I had been for upwards of five years afflioted with * moat distressing malady , which the different medloal men wbo attended me all pronounced to be a serious ease of hydrocele ( or dropsy of the scrotum ) , and declared there was so other chance of either relief or oure than undergoing a surgical operation . I was thus driven almost to despair ; aad coasal * ed 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 and uncertain an experiment , but rather chose to leave the result to nature and Providence . Fortunately , I heard of the great fame of Pahr ' s Lifx 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 1 have now taken twelve boxes , and to my great joy I am perfectly well , the dropsy is entirely removed , together with a ecorbutio 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 the 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 applications either personally or by letter , and remain your grateful and obliged servant .

One man said he wanted a box of Life Pills for Life Pills they were to him , they had done him ftp nuch good , in relieving him of an obstinate cough and asthma .

"A very respectable female said her husband had been afflicted above two years , and had tried many things , but since he had taken Fash ' b Life Pills he was quite a new man ; : "You will please send immediately , by Deacon ' s waggon , 36 dozen boxes at Is . 1 id ., and 6 dozen at 2 s . 9 d . .. :,, ' ;¦¦ " . . - ; ' . ¦ v ' ¦ : ' . - ;• ¦¦ . : ; . ;; ; .. .

It originated in her breast , and continued to spread nearly all over her bodyj defying every effort of surgical skill . Parr ' s Life Pills being recommended to her , she resolved to give them a trial ; and , speaking of the result , she says she cannot express the inconceiveable advantage which she has already derived from them . She further states , that she is now almost well , and ascribes her convalescence solely to the persevering use of that sovereign medicine—Parr ' s Life Pilla . N 3 .

Is a gentlestimulant and renovator of the impaired functions of life , and i « exolusively directed to the cure of the Generative Syfitem , whether constitutional f , r acquired , loss of sexual power , and debility arising from Syphilitic disease ; and is calculated to afford decided relief to those who , by early indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened the powers of their uystem , and fallen into a state of chroniodebility , by whinh the constitution is left fn a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept ap which places the individual in a state of anxiety for the remainder of life . The consequences arising from this dangerous practice , are not confined to its pure physical Result , but branch to moral ones ; leading the excited deviating mind into a fertile field of seducive error , — iuto a gradual but total degradation of manhood—into a . pernicious application of these inherent rights which natviro wisely instituted for the preservation of her species ; bringing on premature decripttude , and all the habitudes of old age : —such a one carries with him the form and aspect of other men , but without the vigour and energy of that season which his early youth bade him hope to attaia . How many | men cease to be men , or , at least , cease to enjoy i manhood at thirty ! How many at eighteen receive the impression of the seeds of Syphilitic disease itself 1 the consequences of which travel out of the ordinary track of bodily ailment , covering the . frame with disgusting evidence of its ruthless nature , and impregnating the wholesome stream of life with mortal poison ; conveying into families the seeds of disunion a « d unhappiness ; undermining domestic harmony ; and striking at the very soul of human intercourse . The fearfully abused powers of the humane Generative System require the most cautious preservation ; and the debility and disease resulting from early indiscretion demand , for the cure of those dreadful evils , that such medicine should bo employed that is , most certain to bo successful . It is for these cases ' MfiRsrs . Perry and Co ., particularly designed their i CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM which is 1 intended to relieve those persons , who , by an immo-, derate indulgence of their passions , have ruined I 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 , aa the various affections of the nervous system , obstinate f leets , excecses , irregularity , obstructions of certain evacuations , weaknes . , total impotency , barrenness , &c . As nothing can bo better adapted to help and nourish the constiintion , bo there is nothing more i generally acknowledged to be peculiarly efficacious in all inward Wastiogs , loss of appetite , indigestion , depression of spirits , trembling or shaking of the hands or Iimbs , obstinatecoagh 8 i shortness « £ breath , or consumptive habits . It possesses wonderful tffioaey in all cases of syphilis , fits , head-ache , weakness , heaviness , and lownesa of spirits , dimness of S'ght , confused thoughts / wandering of the mind , vapours , and melancholy ; and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually removed by ite use . And even where the disease of Stkxulitt appears to have taken the firmest hold of the female constitution , the softening tonic qualities of the Cordial Bairn of Syriacum will warm and purify th ? blood and juices , increase the animal spirits , invigorate and revive the whole animal machine and remove the usual impediment to maturity . This medicino is particularly recommended to be taken before persons enter into the Matrimonial State , lest in the event of procreation occurring , the innocent offspring should bear enstajnped upon it the physical characters derivable from parental debility , or evil eruptions of a malignant tendency , that are most assuredly introduced by the same neglect and imprudence .

WARRXNGTOJf . —Having had J . S Buckingham , Esq . of the Great League , lecturing us on the repeal and ** afty thousand questions / ' we placarded the town , announcing Mr . Dickinson to lecture on Sunday in the afternoon , on the People ' s Wrongs and the People ' s Bemedy ; and at half-past six in the evening on the Corn Lawa and League Fallacies . The afternoon lecture was well attended ; and although the lecturer was labouring under & severe cold , he Triads a deep and lasting impression on the minds of the audience . At half-past six in the evening , our room was crammed , stairs , and alL A working man was called upon to preside , who . in a brief speech , introduced the lecturer , who commenced advising bis audience to bold back thtlr convictions , and stick as tight to their prejudices a * they could ; he wouid have them in spite of all their past impressions , and in defiance of the pleasing fallades , that selfish men and their hirelings throw out to ensnare the unwary : and this transformation should
be performed by the magic wand of truth and stubborn fact alone , for let truth and error grapple , and in a fail and open eacooatei we have no occasion to fear the issue . "Ia my address to you , " said he , " I have no party purpose to serve ; fox the measures I advocate will benefit all men , no matter what title they may bear , or what station in life they say fill . I wish to unite the broken pieces of society . I wish to heal thai wounds and win my way to tiie hearts and mindj of men by appealing to their reasoning powers , and not to their prejudices and passions ; fot that by which a better state of things must be accomplished ia not the sinewy arm , or the clumsy gnrtgo ^ ot the sharp sword . No ; such weapons we only worthy of m * n in ** t&t « ••« -vtuxzavsge BftTftvnHm , when he tried to out do the savage tzibea « f the runs * and acted the part of the tiger .

i ' Knowledge I righteooi word 11 Best gift of God , by all adored I The reign of Freedom ia restored Where ' re its deeds are planted . Before it despotism quaileth ; The bloodied sword before itfculeth ; With truth alone , it aye preraileth , Fair , fearless , and undaunted 1 " . The lecturer then introduced the subject of his lecture , took up the arguments of the Free Traders one by one , and showed the difference between " Free Trade" and Fair Trade ;'' and replied to the assertion that the continental states would take off their tariffs when we took off our import duty . " Wore work , more wages , " was the next fallacy examined , and the lecturer proved
that the reverse had always been the fact" Extension of Trade , " Extension of Distress , " Extension cf came , '' " extension of disease , " " extension . of death , " more trade , " "morebwtflea , " " moreprison 8 , " 'Jmore hospital * , '' " more graves . " The effect produced by Dickinson ' s happy picture of John Smiles , Esq . the great manufacturer , and his three daughters , was a dencher ; and although it was Sunday , we could not refrain the tnap tfrg from giving a hearty round of applause . We can give only & faint outline of the argumentative diseourse , and the hearty Mows dealt at the various sophisms put forth- "Some got a clouck , and some got a daw ; " and I believe there were only three men is the assembly who were not convinced , and those were our fat deputy constable and two of his lobsters ,
who stood these from the beginning . After the lecture was concluded , a vote cf thanks was passed to the lecturer , who promised to give as another lecture on Thursday evening . Subject , "The Triumph ot Chartisnv * At Mr . Dickinson was passing the deputy on hii way oat , he said , " "Well , old gentleman , how do you like tha discourse ? " to which the deputy said , "he had nothing to say against it ; but he should always attend with his men whenever there was a lecture . " The police force had orders to cut a placard from the wall announcing the lectures , and have taken it to the police-office . On Thursday , evening , the attendance was more
and move numerous , many had to go away without an opportunity of hearing the lecture . The room and stairs were crammed to suffocation . The police were -there in full bloom . At eight the lecturer entered the room amidst the cheers of our friends and give us a lecture an tha triumph of Chartism . It was a complete trfrqaph for us ; for after the lecture , which lasted Dearly two hoars , ire enrolled sixteen new members ; and some of our old members who had left us at the time of the riots , came forward and joined us once more . "We are now beginning with renewed spirit . A few more such helps as this , and we ahull be able to hold oar heads op with the best . —Correspondent .
NOTT 1 K 6 HABL— On Monday evening last , a public dinner tot k place at the sign of the Feargus O'Connor , in honour of that champion ot the sights of the industrious minions , Feargus O'Connor , Esq .

advocate of the people ' s rights . '' The chairman , in responding to the toast , said be felt some diffidence , as b » thought he could not do it that justice it deserved . He then eulogised Mr . O'Connor Jn the highest tarns—said of all the men that ha * appeared in this country , he was the most unflinching advo cate . of the righti of the toiflng Bullions—he had descended from the ranks of the aristocracy , where be might have enjoyed all the luxuries of life , and all that tu wiwfofa ** to make man happy- in this life , and bad led a life of trial , and of danger to himself , for tha sole purpose of benefitting the working
rfntmra . He tW spent bis money in then cause , had BoSexed imprisonment , as . d was prepared to guriflce even life itself for them . He had made them what they now were—a terror to faction ! He had tsoght that which they never knew before—that the upper order * of society , were their enemies . He was not what tbe upper orders represented him to be—a man who would divide property . No , his only object was the protection of JsXjquz . , He ( the chairman ) believed F .
