Sib , —I have mnch pleasure in stating to you that your Medicine for Gout and Rheumatism has been of the greatest service and blessing to my daughter . U p wards of eight years she has been seriously affected with Chronic Rheumatism , ( at the first , medical men called it acute , ) that moat painful disease ; the agonizing pain which she has suffered in her limbs for so long a period , baffles any description that I can possibly give of her then miserable state . She oftentimes could neither secure rest nor sleep , I have procured the best medical advice without obtaining any essential relief , —her joints having become much swollen and her limbs so much contracted , and so to speak , paralysed , that for a long season she had not the ability to assist herself in the least possible way . A short time ago , acting from your advice , my daughter commenced taking your pills , and using the liniment you recommended , she has secured the use of her Iimb 3 once again , ( thank God , } so much so as to have walked to see yon , ( as she did on Sunday the 15 th , ) a distance which she had not travelled for five years before j abe is entirely free from pain , and is rapidly recovering her general health , daily setting rid of the distressing remedy . You are at liberty to publish my daughter ' s case , in the hope thereby that your excellent Pills , &c ., may be the means of curing others . ( Signed ) Sarah Faccett , Witness , Mary Ann Cousins .

" The various forms of bodily and mental weakness incapacity , 8 ufferingand 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 the certainty of restoration . The evils to which the book adverts are extensive and identical in their secret ynd hidden origin , and there are none to whom , as Parents , Guardians , Heads of Families , and especially of publio Schools , is confided the care of young people , vrbo 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 forms of generative 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 practice , and ( as in other departments of the profession ) attentively concentrated in 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 fiudthe interests and welfare of mankind seriously involved . The effects of licentious , indiscriminate and secret indulgence in certain 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 shape can he be consulted with greater safety and secrecy than in " Lucas on Manly Vigour . " The initiation into vioious indulgenceits progress—its results in both sexes , are given with faithful , but alas ! 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 physioal 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 stylo , displaying how often fond parents aredeceived by the outward physical appearance of their youthful offspring ; how the attenuation of the frame , palpitationofthe heart , derangement ofthe 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 pernicious practice , alike destructive to the mind and body . "—Bell ' s 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 publio , 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 as treats of subjects we believe generally , yet very strangely , neglected by the medical attendant , and requiring doubtlessly ( as in operative midwifery and the surgery of the eye ) an entire devotedness to a deeply important branch of study . The tone of this book is 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 ia a clear intelligible style , and is evidently the production of a mind long and practically conversant with the diseases of the most delicate division ofthe human organization . "— The Magnet . w security of happiness in the marriage state is the chief anxiety of all ; but many dread entering upon wedded union , through a secret fear of unfitness for the discharge of matrimonial obligations . ; This essay is most particularly addressed to all suffering under a despondency of the character alluded to ; and advice will be fonnd calculated to cheer ihe drooping heart , and point the way to renovated health .

      LETTER FROM MR . WM . HICK , NORTHERN STAR OFFICE , LEEDS . " Northern Star Office , Leeds , March 17 th , 1842 . CCr \ entlemen , —Yon will oblige by forwarding , at \ Xi your earliest convenience , the-same quantity of PARR'S LIFE PILLS as last sent . While I am writing I cannot refrain from communicating the flattering intelligence of the groat good youy 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 jnoTe especially since its use has contributed so largely to the public health . The fact is , however , predjudice is fast giving ' way , as it always must where the pillaare tried . JA few cases in point may serve to confirm and illustrate what I have asserted . " A yonng 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 so 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 many cases of extraordinary cures have 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 were persuaded to try a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , and in 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 j 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 got as much employment as they can 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 ef their rancour . ] The old people continue to take the pills regularly in small quantities , and find them as necessary to their health and prosperity as their daily food . I " The next and last case which I shall mention at this time ,: is one of a most extraordinary nature , I havo not seen the individual myself , but I shall give yon the fact as I have received it from his employer , and from I Mr . J . Hobson , who has frequently seen him since ] his convalesence . The man is a working mechanic I 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 a long time of nothing but rice milk , the stomach refusing to take anything stronger . His body was greatry emaciated and his temporal prospects clouded ; with a mind filled with jmelancholy forebodings for the future , ha 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 being jadvised 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 , where he 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 his past affliction i ' Should the above three eases of cures be worthy of your notice , you are at perfect liberty to make what use of them yon think proper . I am , Gentlemen , yours , respectfully , " WILLIAM HICK . " To Messrs . T . Roberts and Co ., 9 , Crane Court Fleet-street , London . " MIRACULOUS 1 CURE FROM THE USE OP PARR ' S LIFE PILLS . Copy of a Letter just received by the Proprietors from Mr . Win . Moat , 3 , Cobbett-street , Shaw ' s Brow , Salford . •* Ta the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " Gentlemen , —I have the utmost pleasure in forwarding you this my own case of cure , affected 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 , which the different medical men who attended me all pronounced to be a serious case of hydrooele ( or dropsy ofthe scrotum ) , and declared there was no other chance of either relief or cure than undergoing a surgical operation . I was thus driven almost jto despair ; and consulted 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 Parr ' s Life 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 I am perfectly jwell , the dropsy is entirely removed , together with a scorbutio 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 yeans . I feel certain you would have accounts o'f 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 . ( Signed ) " W . MOAT . " Witness—John Hough , Cheadle , carrier . " Manchester , Feb . 7 , 1842 . " FROM MR . BEATON , BOOKSELLER , LEEDS . " To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " " Gentlemen , —I am happy to inform you that we are daily hearing accounts of the good effects of Parr ' s Life Pills ; to enumerate the cases would be a task too formidable for me , and which has prevented my writing to inform you before , as I can hardly tell where * to begin . One man said he wanted a box of Life Pills for Life Pills they were to him , they had done hi ana much good , in relieving him of an obstinate cough and asthma . " Another Baidj they were worth their weight in gold ' . as he was not like the same man since he had taken them . j "Another said Shis 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 , 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 he was quite a new man . "You will please send immediately , by Deacon's waggon , 36 dozen boxes at Is . l ^ d ., and € dozen at 2 s . 9 d . ; " I am , Gentlemen , yours , respectfully , "JOHN HEATON . " 7 , Briggate , Leeds , Feb . 9 th , 1842 . " To Messrs . T . Roberts and Co ., 9 , Crane Court , Fleet-street , London . " Another most extraordinary case of cure , communicated by Mr . Moxon , of York : —Mrs . Mathers , of that city , had for many years been affected wjth a most inveterate disease , 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 of surgical skill . Parr ' s Life Pills being recommended to her , she resolved to give them a trial j ; and , speaking of the result , she says she cannot express the inconceiveable advantage which she has already derived from them . She fur ' ther states , that she is now almost well , and ascribes her convalescence solely to the persevering use « f that sovereign medicine—Parr ' s Life Pills . N . B . Any one doubting the accuracy of the above statement , may , through the agent ( Mr . Moxon ) , be directed to Mrs . Mathers , who will herself authenticate Us truth . —York , Nov . 17 th , 1842 . 5 CAtmOK—BEWABE OF IMITATIONS . In order to protect ; the publio from imitatioms , the Hon .

W . having devoted his studies for many years exclusively to the various diseases of the generative and nervous Bystem , 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 be consulted from nine in the morning till ten at night , and on Sundays till two , —and country patients requiring his assistance , by making only one 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 have failed , a perseverance in his plan , without restraint in diet , or hindrance , from business , will ensure to the patient a permanent and radical cure . A complete knowledge ofthe symptoms and treatment of these insidious and dangerous diseases , can only be aeqnired by those who are in daily practice , and have previously gone through a regular course of Medical Instruction ; for , unfortunately , there the hundreds who annually fall viotims to the ignorant nse of Mercury and other dangerous remedies , Administered by illiterate men ,-who ruin th « constitution by suffering disease to get into the system , which being earned by the circulation of the blood into all parts of the body , the whole frame becomes tainted with venereal poison , and most unhappy consequences ensue , at one time affecting the skin , particularly the head and face , with eruptions and ulcers , closely 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 oflife , tobe snatched out of time , and from all the enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at first , and which never proves fatal if properly treated , as all its fatal results are owing either to neglect or ignorance ; Mr .

      THE LATE DREADFUL HURRICANE . TOTAL LOSS OF THE SHIP ENGLAND , To the already frightful catalogue of wrecka * e have to add Hot total loss of another' fine ship , the jBsgland , Captain Thomas Lewis , belonging to London , -which fonndfired two days . after the hurricane in « renty-eight feet of water , about nine miles off Oatend . ~ The intelligence was brought by Captain Lewis , -who with the chief mate , 2 fc Cfcsike , and the ship ' s cook , arrived off the Cnstom-hoose , at eleven o'clock tm Thmsday night by the Belgian steamer .

      The England - -was of 425 tons burden , and belonged to Mesro Ward and-Son , shipowner * at Sh&dwelL She -wasnotinsured . Ber crew , besides Captain Lewis , eonmsted of flist and second mates , carpenter and carpenter's mate , and sixteen seamen . On the seTenth inst , she left the liver ^ Thames for the coast of Africa -with about 200 tons of ballast , and arriYed safe in the Downs xm the following Thursday . They proceeded on the passage the same evening , having fair weather , the -wind blowing a fine breeze from the east However , at abonVone o'clock on Friday morning , -when the ship had

      arrived between Fairleyand Beachey Head , it commenced blowing s . heavy gale , which increased to one of the severest Inirricanes ever experienced by the oldest Tpyn onboard . Capt . Lewis , upon the storm advancing , tad the ship secured as snttgly as possible ; all sail was shortened , and every man was upon deck ready in case ef emergency . At about two o'clock the appearance of the weather was awful ; hail , snow , and rain descended in torrents , the Bea appeared like a boiling snr f , tb . e wavesnslBg a terrific height , and making a dear breach over the vessel . Most ef the crew had

      lashed themselves to different parts of the vessel . 3 hn £ ng the morning the ship laboured very hard , and by her continually pitching shifted her cargo of ballast ; so mush so , that by daybreak afce was completely npoa Jier beam ends , and making a considerable " quantity of water . The crew made signals of distress , but bo vessel made its appearance daring that and the following day ; but at seven o'clock on Sunday morning a Dutch pDot-boat hove in sight . In the meanwhile the Vessel had become worse , tie crew suffering from cold sod exhaustion . During Friday they made several attempts to work at the pumps ; bat the storm , still continuing with unabated violence , although several -were lashed to the handles , they were unable to keep » looting . Friday tight and Saturday passed without say further success , and they remained lashed to the rigging until late on Saturday night whence weather "became somewhat fine , which enabled them to free themselves from the quarters where they had been

      tied nearly forty-eight hours . * Such was the ytfrraHnn of the ship then , that it . was impossible to work st the pamps , or even to launch the longboat ; she lay on the water with her gunwales completely under , and her destruction was -expected by alL At daybreak the following morning- ( Sanday ) Captain Lewis and the chief officers determined npon cutting sway the mainmast , in the hope of throwing the vessel more in an upright position , and in order to construct a raft In a few minute * after the order had beeo given the mast fell overboard , but it had little effect upon the ship . She lay with the bottom of her keel partially out of the water , and the gunwale some feet under . There was then upwards of ten feet of water in the bold , which was fast " approaching the deck . Just as they commenced contracting the raft the pilot-boat , to their great delight , hove down towards them , and succeeded in reaching the England , and taking them safely off the wreck .

      The Dutch pilot-boat , at the desire of Captain Lewis , remained alongside of the ship until she sank , which took place in about two hours afterwards , about three leagues from-the shore . The crew , npon their arrival st Flashing , were most kindly treated by the authorities , who afforded them every comfort and assistance they could wish . The British Consul at Flushing then forwarded them to BottentoTn , which place they left for London .

      . _^ _ , ; , upua the T&anion Sands , situate about two miles and a iaif to the north of tbo North Lighthouse , in the BristolChannel . The . ship was registered at about 600 tons hordes . She had a general cargo on board , oonsiEting of cotton and slk goods , boxes of copper ore , gunpowder , muskets , sabres , swords , pieces of ordnance , && ; , audit the period of the unfortunate catastrope was upon her passage to Old Calabar , on the coast of Africa . About two hours after she strack , , a vessel called the Appledore , Mr . . " Williams , master , cane alongside , and , by means of his boat , took the erew off in safety . They -were afterwards conveyed to the lighthouse , where every gcomfori and kindness was shown to them , We regret to add ih * t some time before the

      vessel came ashore , a portion of thelcrew had forcibly broken into the store-room , and drank to such excess of spirits , that some were lying about the deck in a shocking state of madness , and would have perished but | for the humanity of their messmates , who secured them to the rigging to prevent the sea washing them overboard ; and there they remained until assistance arrived alongside of the ¦ wreck . The crew consisted of twtnty-three men , besides Captain Townes , the commander , and first JUid second mates . Immediately before the wreck being observed by the Coast Guard , a strong body

      of men were stationed along the coast to protect any part of the cargo that should be washed ashore . Towards morning , as the tide rose , the breakers ihrew the ship higher upon the sands , where she K > 0 fl broke in half , and her cargo floated ont , and yrss washed npon the beach . As night advanced a band of desperate wreckers made their appearance and commenced plundering the cargo to a great extent . Several were fired at by the Coast Guard -without any serious result , bat xhey still continued their depredations with the utmost impnniiy . Since then several of the principal offenders have been apprehended and committed for trial .

      IBELiLnD . Habis , Jxs . 17 . —Last Friday morning , as the boats belonging to the Basses Herring Fishery were engaged in hauling their nets on the north side of the Isle of Arran , a violent gale of wind snddenly sprang ap from the north , and is a very short space m time it increased to a perfect hnrricane . Every effort was made by the boatmen to reach the shore , hot , alas 1 twelve poor fellows were doomed to a premature snd watery grave ; ten of whom formed ihe crew of one of Mr . F . Forster ' s large fishing yawl—the other two men were lost out of separate boats . A few days previous to this lamentable occurrence , as a boat was retarniag from Barton Port

      to Arran , she Tsras capsized , and six persons out of nine were unfortunately drowned . One of the stirvivors died the following morning from the effects of the braises he received on the rocks while struggling to gain the shore . The continual storms which we have had since the 4 th , have paralysed the efforts of our hardy fishermen ; and although there is every reason to believe that there is a large shoal of herrings off the island of Ronanish , the tempestuous state of the weather has kept them from approaching the usual fishing-gronnd . Twenty-seven trains of Bets , averaging seven each—in all about 190 nets , besides anchors , ropes , &c , have been lost by the Fortnooand BalljhiEagh fishermen on the morning of the Athinst .

Abont three p . m * information was received that abont 2 , 000 workmen were proceeding from Quakers ^ -yard to Aberdare . The superintendent accordingly concentrated his force in the neighbourhood of the works , with a view of observing their movements , « nd , if necessary , to descend npon them , it being arranged that Mr . WiUiainB should try his endeavours , if required , before any appearance of the constabulary took place near the works , and , if required , to forward information to the superintendent . Abont 4 p . m . nearlOOO in number appeared in sight , composed chiefly of

      Monmoathshire colliers . It was evident that they had received information of the arrival of the police , for they acted with extreme caution ; they did not attempt to approach near the works , bnt halted in a field ; &djoining , first obtaining the liberty of the owner . The leader began to speak , and . impressed npon the rabble to be orderly , and not lay themselves open to the law , for he was informed the police were at hand . They did not ask to see the agent or hold out any intimidation , the colliers beingat work in the levels , and appearing determined to remain at work . Abont 6 o ' clock Mr . Williams called them . up , when they did not join the mob , bat retired apparent ]? to their respective homes . The mob , no doubt alarmed , and finding they were frustrated in their object , dispersed in all directions . Upon their dispersion , Mr . Superintendent Davie 3 stationed officers

      in different parts of the works , with a view to prevent the committal of damage to the machinery , pits , &c , during the night . The public-houses , beer-houses , and lodging-houses were searched , all strangers and stragglers from the mob were warned to depart , and told that if found begging they would be immediately apprehended . This had the desired effect , for they all , with a few exceptions , being housed by the workmen , left doling the nigftt . No intimidation or threats were ased towards the colliers composing this colliery . On the following morning the manager was at bis post toTOceivethe workzien .
