PERRY ' S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS , Price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and 11 s . per box , ( Observe the signature of R . and L . PERRY and Co . on th ¦ outside of each wrapper ) are wdl known throughout Europe and America , to be the most certain and effectual cure ever discovered for every stage and symptom of the Venereal Disease , in both sexes , including Gonorrhtei , Gleets , Secondary Symptoms , Striotures , Seminal Weakness . Deficiency , and all diseases of the Urinary Passages , without loss of time , confinement , or hindrance from business . Messrs . Perry and Co ., Surgeons , may be consulted as usual , at 44 , Albion-street , Leeds , and 4 , Great Charles-street , ( four doors from Easy-row , ) Birmingham , punctually , from Eleven in the Morning until eight in the Evening , and on Sundays from Eleven till One . Only one personal visit is required from a country patient , to enable Messrs . Perry and Co ., to give such advice as will be the means of effecting a permanent and effectual cure , after all other means have proved ineffectual . THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRUCUM . Is a gentlestimnlant and renovator of the impaired functions of life , and is exclusively directed to the cure of the Generative System , whether constitutional or 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 system , and fallen into a state of chronic debility , by which the constitution is left in a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept up 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 , — into a gradual but total degradation of manhood—into a pernicious application of these inherent rights whioh nature wisely instituted for the preservation of her species ; bringing on premature decripitude , 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 attain . How many men cease to be men , or , at least , cease to enjoy manhood at thirty 1 How many at eighteen receive the impression of the seeds of Syphilitic disease itself Hhe 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 disnnion and unhappiness ; undermining domestic harmony ; and striking at the very soul of human intercourse . The fearfully abused powers of the humane G « nerative System require the moBt cautious preservation ; and the debility and disease resulting from early indiscretion demand , for the cure of those dreadful evils , that such medicine should be employed that is most certain to be successful . It is for the ? e cases Messrs . Perry and Co ., particularly designated their CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM whioh 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 . As nothing can be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution , bo there is nothing more generally acknowledged to be peculiarly efiicacious in all inward wastings , loss of appetite , indigestion , depression of spirits , trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs , obstinate coughs , shortness of breath , or consumptive habits . It possesses wonderful efficacy in all cases of syphilis , fits , head-ache , weakness , heaviness , and lowness of spirits , dimness of sight , confused thoughts , wandering of the mind , vapours , and melancholy ; and all kinds of hysteric complaints are gradually moved by its use . And even where the disease of Sterility appears to have taken the firmest hold of the female constitution , the softening tonic qualities of the Cordial Balm of Syriacum will warm and purify the blood and juices , increase the animal spirits , invigorate and revive the whole animsl machine , and remove the usual impediment to maturity . This medicine 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 unstamped 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 . Sold in Bottles , price 11 s . each , or the quantity of four in one Family bottle for 333 ., by which oue 11 s . bottle is saved . Prepared only by Messrs . PERRY & Co ., Surgeons , 44 , Albion-street , Leeds , ( Private Entrance in the passage , ) and 4 , Great Cnarles-street , Birmingham .

LETTER FROM MR . WM . HICK , NORTHERN STAR OFFICE , LEEDS . " Northern Star Office , Leeds , March 17 th , 1842 . f ^ p entlemen , —You will oblige by forwarding , at IX your earliest convenience , the same quantity of PARR'S LIFE PILLS as last sent . While I am writing I cannot refrain from communicating the flittering intelligence of the groat good your pills are 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 more especially since its use has contributed so largely to the public health . The fact is , however , prejudice 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 . " A young 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 caseB 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 ; bo much bo , 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 overhours besides . Bad as trade is here , the old people being favourites with the mill owner , are enabled to get as much employment as they oan 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 PiIIb come in for a share of their rancour . The old people continue to take the pills regularly in small quantities , and find them as necessary to thoir health and prosperity as their daily food . " The next and last case whioh I shall mention at this time , is one of a most extraordinary nature . I have not seen the individual myself , but I shall give you the fact as I have received it from his employer , and from Mr . J . Hobson , who has frequently seen him since his convalesence . The man is a working mechanic 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 oonsisted for a 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 melanoholy forebodings for the future , he 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 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 , 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 . " Should the above three cases of cures be worthy of your notice , you are at perfect liberty to make what use of them you think proper . 1 I am , Gentlomon , yours , respectfully , "WILLIAM HICK . "To Messrs . T . Roberts and Co ., 9 , Crane Court , Fleet-street , London . " MIRACULOUS CURE FROM THE USE OF PARR ' S LIFE PILLS . Copy of a Letter just received by tho Proprietors from Mr . Wm . Moat , 3 , Cobbett-street , Shaw ' s Brow , Salford . " To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . ¦ " Gentlemen , —I have the utmost pleasure in forwarding you this my own oase of cure , effeoted 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 medioal men who attended me all pronounced to be a serious oase of hydrocele ( or dropsy of the scrotum ) , and declared there was no other chance of either relief or cure than undergoing a surgical operation . I was thus driven almost to despair ; aud consulted the treatise written by Sir Astley Cooper , wherein he states that the operation ia generally attended with considerable danger . I therefore determined not to riBk 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 well , the dropsy is entirely removed , together with a scorbutic 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 . ( Signed ) , "W . MOAT . " Witness—John Hough , Cheadle , carrier . " Manchester , Feb . 7 , 1842 . " FROM MR . HEATON , 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 Park ' 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 him so much good , in relieving him of an obstinate cough and asthma . " Another said they were worth their weight in gold ! as he was not like the same man since he bad taken them . " Another said his wife had had a bad leg far years , but after taking one small boz , 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 tha other . " A very respeotable female said her husband had been afflioted 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 . lid ., and 6 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 .

Just Published , Price 2 s . 6 d . ( Or sent free to the most remote parts of the Kingdom , in a sealed envelope , on the receipt of a post-office order for 3 s . 6 d . ) THE SECRET MEDICAL ADVISER . BEING a practical Treatise on the prevention and cure of the VENEREAL DISEASE , and other affections of the urinary and sexual organs , in both sexes , with a mild and successful mode of treatment , in all their forms and consequences ; especially Stricture , Gleets , affections of the Bladder , Prostrate Glands , Gravel , &c . shewing also the dangerous conr sequences of Mercury , such as eruptions of the skin , pain in the bones , &c , with plain directions for a perfect restoration : embellished with engravings . An ample consideration of the diseases of women ; also nervous debility ; including a comprehensive dissertation on the anatomy of Marriage , impuissance , celibacy , sterility or barrenness , and various other interruptions of the Laws of Nature . Also some animadversions on the Secret Sin of Youth , which entails such fearful consequences on its viotims . . $ SF This Work is undeniably the most interesting and important that has hitherto been published on this subject , imparting information which ought to be in the possession of everyone who is labouring under any secret infirmity , whether male or female . BY M . WILKINSON , CONSULTING SURGEON , &o . 13 , Trafalgar Street , Leeds . Of whom they may be obtained , or from any of his Agents ; MR . M . W . having devoted his studies for many years exclusively to the various 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 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 ana 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 oases 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 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 hundreds who annually fall victims to the ignorant use of Mercury and other dangerous remedies , administered by illiterate men , who ruin the constitution by suffering disease to get into tho system , which being carried by the circulation of the blood into all partB 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 of life , to be snatohed out of time , and from all the enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at first , and whioh 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 following agents , with printed directions so plain , that they may cure themselves without even the knowledge of a bed-fellow . They are particularly recommended to betaken before persons enter into the matrimonial state , lest the indiscretions of a parent are the source of vexation to him the remainder of his existence , by afflicting his innocent but unfortunate offspring with the evil eruptions of the malignant tendency , and a variety of other complaints , tbat are most assuredly introduced by the same neglect and imprudence .

Wood , Bookseller , 78 , High Street , Birmingham ; and by all Booksellers in the United Kingdom . " The various form 3 of bodily and mental weakness incapacity , Suffering and disease , faithfully delineated in this cautiously written and practical work , are almost unknown , generally misunderstood , aud treated upon principles correspondingly erroneous and superficial , by the present race of medioal 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 , Gaardians , Heads of Families , and especially of public Schools , is confided the care of young people , who ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and those 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 ) a ttentively 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 find the interests and welfare of mankind seriously involved . The effects of licentious , indiscriminate and secret indulgence in certain practices , are described with an accuracy andforce 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 vicious indulgenceits progress—its results in both sexes , are given with faithful , but alas ! for human nature , with afflicting truth . However , the Authora 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 follow man , can regain the vigour of health and moral courage . The work is written in a concise and perspicuous style , displaying how ofteu fond parents aredeceivedby the outward physical appearance of their youthful offupriHg ; how the attenuat ion of the frame , nalpitationof the heart , derangement of the nervous sybtem , cou ^ h , 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 medioal work , this remark is open to exception iu 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 bo devoid of that mysterious technicality in whioh the science of medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance . The work before us treats of subjects we believe genorally , 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 in a clear intelligible style , and is evidently the production of a mind long and practically conversant with tbe diseases of the moat dedicate division of the human organization . "— The Magnet . " The 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 alladed to ; and advice will be found calculated to cheer the drooping heart , and point the way to renovated health . ¦ Messrs .

A NOBLEMAN CONVICTED OF SMUGGLING . On Monday last , amongst the persons charged before Mr . Broderip , at the Thames Police Court , was Stephen Moore Viscount Kilworth , eldest son of the Earl Mountcashel , on a charge of smuggling , or rather having unlawfully in his possession two pounds and a quarter of foreign manufactured tobacco , for which the duty had not been paid . Mr . Few , of Henrietta-street , Covent Garden , his Lordship ' s solicitor , attended with the noble defendant From the evidence adduced , it appeared that his Lordship arrived by a Rotterdam steamer , which put in at the Brunswick Pier , Blackwall , between . S 6 ven and eight o ' clock on Sunday morning last , where she wa 3 boarded by two custom honse officers in waiting .
One of the latter , on entering the cabin , observed his Lordship , ( who , at the time , was a perfect stranger to him ) stow away an empty cigar box , and this circumstance exciting bis suspicion , be watched him narrowly , and on his leaving the vessel , and while on the pier , asked him if he had any cigars about him ? His Lordship replied that he had about seventy or eighty ; but the officer feeling dissatisfied with his assertion , took him back to the steamer , and , on searching him , found in his pockets two pounds and a quarter of cigars and tobacco . On this discovery , his Lordship expressed his wiliinjjness to pay the duty , whatever it might be ; but the officer ( Scanlac ) felt it to be his duty to charge him with smuggling , and accordingly took him to the police station-house at Poplar . There is Lordship gave his proper name , and the charge feeing taken against him , he was detained from nine o ' clock until four in the evening , when he was bailed out
by a publican at Poplar , and his friend , both of whom volunteered their services upon being made acquainted with the charge , and the rank and station of his Lordship . When before the magistrates , and after the facts as to his apprehension bad been deposed to by Scsnlan , his Lordship did not deny the fact of having the cigars and tobacco upon his person , but said that he had been assured in Holland before purchasing the quantity of cigars and tobacco he had brought , as they were for his own consumption , they would not be liable te duty , and that it was upon this representation , and not from the slightest wish to evade the duty , he made the purchase . His Lordship also said he did not deny , when challenged by the officer , having cigars upon his person ; and added , that the moment he was informed that the quantity found on him was liable to duty , he expressed his willincness to pay its amount
Mr . Broderip observed that while it was his wish to make no distinction between parties brought before Mm , he was still willing to believe that ; his lordship had erred from the representations made to him before purchasing the articles as represented , and not from any intention U , defraud the revenue . This , however , was only an extenuation , and not a justification of the offence , as persons could not plead ignorance of tbe law to justify its violation . Under all the dtcumstances of the case , however , and being willing to believe his lordship ' s assurance that no evasion of the law was intended , he would only fine him in the mitigated penalty of twenty BhillingB . This bis lordship immediately paid , and , accompanied by his solicitor , left the court
