They give out twice the heat with half the fuel, and will burn ten hours without replenishing. Ten years' experience in churches, chapcls, private dwellings, warehouses, and public offices fully confirm this statement. They cannot possibly explode or give out offensive gases, as many others do. They are adapted not only for warming the apartment in which they stand, but for the circulation of hot water to conservatories or any distant part of the building.—Orders addressed to Nott's Stove Company, 80, Great Queen's-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, will be attended to.

I'llOUT, 229, STItAND, LONDON, Frimlev, near Bagshot, Surrey, April 23, 1813. SIR,—I enclose three cases in which the parties therein named have received great benefit from using Blair's Pills, and the truth of which I am at any time ready to make affidavit of if required. You are at perfect liberty to publish them if you think proper. Hoping this may induce the incredulous to make a trial of the Pills, which will speedily convince them of their value. I am, Sir, yours truly, JOHN J. GILES. Pirbright, April 23, 1813. DEAR Siii,-Upon your recommendation, I sent for a box of Blair's Rheumatic Pills, and to my astonishment a few doses entirely removed the tormenting pains my wife had suffered so long, but having caught a severe cold the rheumatism again returned, when having re- course to a few more Pills, it again fled, and has not since returned. The public are not generally aware of the efficacy of this truly valuable medicine, or few would suffer from rheumatism. In consequence of witnessing the effects of the above medicine in my own family, I recommended Edward Bridger, now sixty-seven years of age, a labourer and jobbing gardener, to apply to you, he being much afflicted with rheumatism for twenty years; he could scarcely get any sleep, being always worse when in bed. and unable to walk without the assistance of a stick, You gave him some Pills. I saw him yesterday; he told me lie could now get rest, which he had been unable to do for a very long time, he is still lame from the length of time he has been afflicted, but can now walk without much inconvenience ten or twelve miles in the day, and can, as he says, do any light work he has ap- plied to me for a job at hoeing. It is distressing to see a fellow creature suffering such excruciating pain, when relief can be obtained by taking Blair's Gout and Rheu- matic Pills. I shall, for the benefit of those who may suffer, continue to recommend them. I am, dear Sir, yours truly, To John J. Giles, Esq., GEO. INNWOOD. Frimley, Surrey. Blackwatcr, near Bagshot, Feb. 2J, 1843. BEAK GILES,—The effect of Blair's Pills has been everything I could wish for. I had symptoms of the Gout during Wednesday night; I took two Pills during the night, and two in the morning, which quite removed the pain and I was enabled to give a lecture at Ilartly Row all Thursday evening, although I was in fear that morning I should not have been enabled to leave home. I am, dear Sir, yours truly, To J. J. Giles, Esq. To J. J. Giles, Esq. EDW. J. LANCE. To the above gratifying communications, the pro- prietor of BLAIR'S GOUT an d RHEUMATIC PILLS considers any comment from him would be superfluous. Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London; price Is.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. This work, 111 ci.rvi'NTii edition of which is now IJTPcntcd to the public, 10.0(10 copies having been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly interesting cases. 1'hp book, a has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a clas of diseases whieh, for some unaccountable reason, have heen either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indill'erenee, by the ordinary medical practitioner; and we feel 110 hesiatation in saying that there is no member of society hy whom the book will not be found useful, whe- ther such person hold the relation of a I'AISENT, a raF.cur- TOR, or a ci.EIUIYMAN.—bun evening paper. flic perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book, entitled I Nlarili(lod' has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, never-tailing consequence of the vicious hnbit of which it treats. 1 he clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the pf-kcts is perceptible to every capacity. We strongly recommend the work. "—Age. Messrs. Curtis's yvork, entitled Manhood,' is one of the few hooks now coining before the public on such a sub- ject which can lay claim to the character of being strict.lv professional, at the same time it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The mor;, I and medical precepts given in it.render it invaluable. —Age. This is a work that we fear there exists too much need for, to cause us to hesitate to recommend it for general perusal.

TIIIS valuable Paste remains for a short time in a JL soft state, so that it cannot give the least pain, and may be used by;, ny person with the greatest case. It has the remarkable property of becoming hard and sound as the Tooth itself, excluding the air and food from the nerve, preventing further decay, and succeeding when other kinds of stopping have completely failed. X. B. The Succedaneum should be applied as soon as decay makes its appearance, it being a great error -to delay until the Tooth becomes painful. Timely attention may preserve decayed Teeth for years. It has been used with great success by several persons in the vicinity of Carmarthen, and elsewhere. PREPARED BY R. M. DAVIES, CHEMIST, &c.

Oxford is unquiet again. The Hebdomadal Board has been legislating. A statute has been wanting for a long time on the subject of divinity degrees, and the power of the Regius Professor over them, and a statute has at last come. The candidate for a divinity degree has to give his papers to the Professor to examine, and the Professor's decision, under appeal to the Vice- Chancellor, determines his fate. If he finally displeases these two, lie is not to have his degree. Withdraw this statute—you can do so. It is not jet brought into Convocation, and therefore you have time to retrace the step. Let the embryo statute lie reconsidered. You know what the grounds against it are. Give yourselves time, and make another. Do not be influenced by the consideration that the old one is waste if you do so: do not try to piece up the old one. It proceeds altogether on a wrong principle. Get rid of that notion of a doctrinal examination. Let us have no private censorship exercised by the Professor—no carrying home of the candidate's papers. We seriously think this the best course you can take. It will display a laudable moderation on your own part, and prevent ill-blood and contention in the University. Make a new statute on a straightforward, liberal basis. You have the opportunity -use it.— Times.
ANTI-STATE-CHURCH CONFERENCE.…
ANTI-STATE-CHURCH CONFERENCE. The executive committee, appointed to make arrange- ments for the proposed Anti-State-Churcli Conference, wish to acquaint the public with some of the reasons which render the contemplated movement expedient, and with the principles by which it will be regulated. The spirituality of the kingdom of Christ is a scriptural truth of the highest importance. The alliance of any section of the Church with the civil power practically repudiates this truth. The presidence of worldly men over the institutions of the Gospel, the authoritative prescription of articles of faith by a secular legislature, and the compulsory means which have been, for many centuries, adopted and enforced for the maintenance of professedly religious worship and instriietion-are so obviously hostile to the genius of Christianity, tend so directly to debase the conscience, beget in the public mind such erroneous notions of the nature of true religion, and have uniformly thrown in the way of Divine truth such fearful impediments, as to render it imperative on all persons concerned for the purity of religion to make known the pernicious character of that alliance, to expose the numerous evils resulting from it, and, by the earnest application of their knowledge, their influence, their energy, and of all other legitimate means, to seek its dissolution at the earliest possible period. The events of the times cor.spirc to point attention to the evils of Church and State alliance to give warning of the dangers to be apprehended from its continuance; and to encourage the expectation that, by united and persevering exertions, the separation of the one from the other will, under Divine superintendance, be ultimately effected. The agitation of this question on the continent of Europe—the late disruption of the Scottish Church—the anarchy of Ireland, produced mainly by its religious establishment—the Factories Education Bill of last session—the revival of High Church principles—the unconstitutional demands set up by ecclesiastical authorities, and the oppressive pro- secutions upon which those authorities are once more venturing—the consequent awakening amongst dissenters of a more serious regard for their principles, and a more earnest desire to see them recognized by the legislature, all concur in pressing home the conclusion that the day has now arrived for seeking a dissolution of the alliance between Church and State, in a spirit of allegiance to the great Head of the Church. The holding of a conference representative, as fully as circumstances will permit, of persons of every denomination who repudiate the principle of national religious establishments, is believed to be the most suitable method of commencing a serious movement for their abolition. The executive committee, however, I haying reason to fear that the objects of the pioposed conference have, in some quarters, been misunderstood, are anxious to state, as explicitly as possible, what they believe to be the views of those by whom they have been appointed. In the confident pursuasion that, besides the general and more obvious exhibitions of nonconformity, there exist among dissenters, in isolated forms, much correct knowledge, strong attachment to principle, and ardent desire for co-operation—a conference has been proposed, for the purpose of collecting these scattered elements, and thus the more effectually promoting the accomplish- ment of the end in view. The object of the conference will, therefore, be to act upon the conscience and the heart of the dissenting com- munity, and to devise means adapted to bring them up to the level of their responsibility in order that, at as early a period as possible, they may make their peaceful, but united and determined exertions tell upon the legislature. A solemn exposition of the unscriptnral character of established Churches—an emphatic exhibition of the evils which necessarily flow from tlieni-aii avowed resolution to labour, in every legitimate way, for their abolition—and the adoption of such a plan of organisation as may secure unity of action without endangering freedom, Avill assuredly tend to enlighten the uniformed, to rouse the listless, to embolden the i timid, to cheer on the energetic; and, at no distant time, so to elevate the tone of feeling, as to render advisable the agitation of the question both within and without the walls of parliament. The executive committee will cheerfully labour to pre- pare the business to be submitted to the conference, in such a manner as will most facilitate its deliberations; and, with this view, they will shortly publish the plan of its constitution, and the time and place at which it Nvill be held. Meanwhile, they earnestly entreat their nonconforming brethren, of every denomination, to unite with them in this great enterprise, and to aim at making the proposed movement as efficient for the purpose it is designed to promote, as that purpose is undeniably important. F. A. Cox, Provisional Secretary. Within the last few days nineteen petitions, signed by 1,128 persons, have been presented against the union of the dioceses of Bangor and St. Asaph. l Dr. Warne has placed £1000 at the disposal of the I Ecclesiastical Commissioners. | Mr. Glover, in his Finnentiun Papale, lays down these positions The Roman Catholic bishops in England and Ireland are not bishops in any sense, unless they have been bishops of sees abroad. That even if they have been true bishops elsewhere, yet, not being wanted by us in England and Ireland, where Christ is named, they intrude themselves. They, according to the Nieene Confession, even supposing them to speak the same thing—that is, to hold the same faith as those who are already in possession of the sees respectively, are busy-bodies in other men's matters, and therefore not apostolical in their act and place, and consequently having no office whatever, render null their episcopacy. Secondly, supposing these bishops not to speak the same thing as those alxeady in their sees, then they are not Catholic—i. c., they arc un-Catholic in their doctrine."

THE MORMONS.—[Extract of a Letter dated Dec. 28.] — Since you were here the Prophet Joe Smith has been two or three times arrested on a requisition from the Governor of Missouri but. has always contrived to have a hearing before his own Municipal Court at Nauvoo, and has, of course, always got clear. He continues to send out his prcaclicrs throughout the land, and when his dupes arrive here, to swindle them cf their all. He occasionally puts forth a new revelation. He and most of his elders now have, in addition to their lawful wives, other women whom they call spiritual wives. Vv ben any of these worthies sets his fancy upon another female, whether married or siugle, Joe sets her apart by revelation to the man who selects her a; his victim. In this way many a family is broken up. The last revelation is, that they must all be married again for eternity; and in accordance with this, the Prophet lias recently been married to bis lawful wife for eternity. He says, that as there is no marrying or giving in marriage in Heaven, all men who have heretofore been married for time only, and desire that connexion in the next world, must be married again for eternity. Many accordingly have been so married. The Prophet has been keeping a tavern for some months past. He has recently added to his establishment a bar. where he keeps all kinds of liquors, and retails them out by the glass. He continues to practise all his other fooleries as N%-Iieii you were here. A L, as when you were here. A great many people join him, and a great many leave. Neither the Temple nor the Nauvoo-house is half-finished. The whule Mormon community is becoming more and more obnoxious to the surrounding community and we anticipate a rupture at no distant day. The people cannot put up with their fooleries much longer. CHURCH RATES AT NORWICH.—Wednesday evening a i,ory large public meeting was held at the school rooms, Garden street, Stepney, for the purpose of co- operating both for their civil rights and religious liberties, and to raise subscriptions to defend those who were suffering from ecclesiastical intolerance. The Rev. Dr. Andrew Reed took the chair. SrntrruAL INSTRUCTION IN WORKHOUSES.—On Tuesday, in reply to an inquiry, Sir James Graham made the following announcement" I call have no hesita- tion whatever in answering the question of the hon. gentleman. I do not knoic what is the source of his information, but I have no hesitation in stating to the II ouse the decision of Her Majesty's oil this point. I AND HER MAJESTY'S MINISTERS are entirely satisfied with the discretionary power which is at present placed in the hands of the Pool- Law Comm issioners, and in the manner in which they have exercised it: that is a discretion which WILL continue to be exercised on their responsibility, with due regard to local circum- stances." "I am not prepared to propose any altera- tion of the law. As at present advised, am entirely satisfied n-ith the state of the law; and in any discussion which may take place on this subject, I shall be pre- pared to satisfy the House that the discretion vested in the Poor Law Commissioners has been exerciscd in a due and proper manner." The Morning ?Ter?M denies that this declaration of Sir James Graham shows any difference of opinion between the reply made by Lord Wharncliffe, relative to the Bishop of Exeter's state- ment, on the subject of poor law chaplains. In the Enf/lisli Clwrclul1an there is a list of all the churches in England (with the exception of the cathe- drals and some metropolitan churches-) in which daily- prayers are read. The list extends to the number of 190.-The Catholic Archbishop of Tllam, in his pastoral address, says, A greater evil could not come upon the country than the infliction of a stipendiary pi iestlioc)(I. On Friday evening a meeting was held in the Albion Chapel, Moorfields, tcr receive a Deputation from the Free Church of Scotland. Addresses were delivered by the Rev. Dr. Forbes, and other cjected Ministers after which a collection was made in aid of the Free Church. The meeting was large and respectable. OXFORD, hRCll 4-0n Saturday last Mr. John Connington, of Magdalen College, was elected Hertford Latin Scholar. We understand there were thirty-three candidates.

PROVINCIAL JUSTICE. j
PROVINCIAL JUSTICE. Aylesbury, Feb. 21. Two men were convicted here this morning, before a bench of magistrates, of an aggravated and in some re- spects an atrocious assault upon an agricultural la- bourer anll his wife. The complainant had interfered for the protection of another man in a becr-sliop affray; the result was that the defendants jointly attacked him, beat anll kicked him while lying on the ground, and tvyice knocked down his wife in her attempts to assist him. On this chargc they were convicted and sentenced, each of them, to a fine of 10s. and the costs. The de-j fendants preferred going to prison to paying the costs and fine. In consequence of this refusal the complain- ant, who is himself only a labourer at I Is. a week, was obliged to pay the enormous sum of which I inclose the particulars and the receipt, amounting, as von will pe ceive, to £ 2 5s. Gd. Nor is this all; in order to obtain a redress, the com- plainant had in the first instance to apply to the nearest magistrate, residing at a distance of four miles from his own house the magistrate yvas absent, and lie was then obhged to go to another residing nine miles from his house. This gentleman considered the case too seriens for a single magistrate to entertain, and therefore re- ferred him to the bench of magistrates, and to obtain the necessary summons he was compelled to proceed here, a further distance of four miles. A day was ap- pointed for the hearing, and this made a further journey necessary, for the complainant, his wife, and their wit- ness, of J2 miles from their home. Thus, in going and returning, the complainant has had to travel not less than 5S miles and, after convicting the accused parlies, to pay for his success, besides his travelling ex- penses E2 5s. 8d., under a system of gratuitous admi- nistration of the police law of the country. I k1.YC' no complaint to make of the magistrates their conduct throughout has been courteous and attentive, and, if they have erred in this case, it has only been on the side of mercy to two fellows whose cowardly ruffianism in attacking a woman, and twice knocking her down, while simply endeavouring to assist her husband, de- served no mercy. But I do complain bittei-IN- of the extreme hardship of a system that holds out so little en- couragement to the poor to appeal to legal protection, that an honest and generous fellow is filled £ 2 os. 6d., besides a journey of 58 miles and travelling expenses, for convicting two ruffians of a brutal assault upon him- self and his wife. I enclose my name, and you arc at full liberty to quote it, if necessary. I am, Sir, yours very obediently, A DEPUTY-T.IEUTENANT OF THE COUNTY. Aylesbury, Feb. 24, 1S41.

RAILWAY LEGISLATION.—At Bristol, on Wednes- day, a meeting of highly respectable tradesmen and others was held, to take into consideration the inquisi- torial and extortionate nature of a clause in a biJInow before Parliament, at the instance of the Great Western Railway Company, empowering that company to exa- mine all parcels to ascertain yvhethcr they contain any enclosures. In such cases the clause empowers the company to chsrge for every parcel, and to impose a penalty of X20 oil the consignee. Some discussion arose as to yvhethcr the clause would apply to other parties than common carriers, but the general opinion was that, from the ambiguous manner in which it was j worded, it would include all parcels. A committee wn« appointed I,) make further inquii ies.
MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE.
MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. The past week, says the Spectator of last Saturday, has displaced Parliament in its idler moods: less than usual has been said or done, & little of that to anv pur- pose. Anti-League meetings are reported at Welsh- pool, attended by the Earl of Powis, at Stow-on-thc- Wold, Sherborne, in Dorset; Guildford, in NSurreyj Kingsbridge, in Hampshire; Harlestoiie, in Uxbridge, in Middlesex, and at Bristol, atteiidt,d Gore, M. P. for Barnstaple Mr. R. B. Hale, M. Is. for the western division of the county of Gloucester; Mr. Harford, of Blaize Castle, and a strong muster of So- merset chaw-bacons. The Earl of Carlisle is said to be gradually though slowly recovering. The Du.ke of Beaufort fell from his horse while hunting, near Ciren- cester, on the 20th Flilltitry, aild fractured a rib but he is going on favourably. -The death of Baron Wal- lace leaves a blank in the Peerage the late Lord having died without issue, the title is extinct. The Post- mastei-General has ordered a post-office to be opened at Noimanton Railway station, by which passengers will have an opportunity of receiving and forwarding letters at that important station. The Normanton station is at the junction of the Manchester and Leeds and York and North Midland line, about three miles from Wakefield, and nine miles from Leeds.- The publishers of Edin- burgh petitioned the House of Commons for the removal of the excise duties on paper.-Soiue days ago, a young man of Sellcs, near Pont-Audcmer, in a fit of rage at the attentions of a youth of 17 having been preferred by a female to whom he was attached, inflicted upon his rival, as he was leaving the house of the young girl, several severe wounds with a razor, which caused his death almost immediately. The murderer has been arrested. Advices received from the Sandwich Islands of October 26, state that the whalers Jonas, of Nantes, Adele, of Havre, and Ajax, of Havre, were lving in Honolulu bay, with full cargoes, and were about to pro- ceed homeward. -The Boscawen, 70 guns. is to be launched at W oolwich, on the 3d of April next. The launch will take place about half-past one o'clock. In consequence of the great abundance of money, the London and County Bank have sent out circulars, re- ducing the interest on current accounts from two per cent., and on deposits to two per cent., when lodged from three to twelve months certain. The London Joint-stock Bank issued a circular, reducing the interest allowed to their customers, some davs back.-The amount applied to the national debt from Jan. 5, 1843, to Jan. 0, 1844, was £ 9,010 17s. 9d. The amount to be applied in the quarter from .1th Jan. to 5th April, 1844, is £ ^30,G13 Os. 9d. Extensive altera- tions are now in course of operation beneath the covered portion of Hungerford market. At the man- sion-house last Friday, Barber, Fletcher, Griffin, and Mrs. Do, eN., the person accused of extensive will-forge- ries, were brought up on remand and again remanded, on the application of Barber's counsel, to allow time for the preparation of evidence and the prisoner's defence. The other prisoners assented to the remand, which was ordered by the Court Saturday the 23d instant being fixed for the next examination. It was understood that Mis. Darcy's confession was in the hands of Mr. Fresh- field, the solicitor for the prosecution. It is understood that he had supplied lleteher with information in all the cases with which the prisoners stand charged. He is under suspension but the extent of his culpability is doubtful.- The Shropshire iron warehouse of Hor- ton, Simms, and Bull, at Manchester, fell on Monday afternoon, and Uvo men, a foreman and a porter, were kided. A paragraph has been the round of the papers, stating that the Queen commanded the uncon- sumed wine at the Royal table to be given to the poor. This is a mis-statement. The whole of the wine not drank, which is of the most choice description, is regu- larly conveyed back to the cellar, then carefully corked up and kept in readiness for the following day's con- sumption. A great sensation has been created in New It ork by the seizure of the Liverpool packet-ship Oxford, for smuggling bales of woollens into boats meet- ing her off Sandy Hook. The first mate, named Gage, had been arrested, ard is said to be the only criminal belonging to the ship. The practice has been some time suspected.- "King Oastler" has recommenced a Ten-Houis Bill agitation. In the United King- dom. a sum of upwards of ;C22,000,000 is annually expended in the consumption of gas; and in London alone, the sum paid to the several gas companies has exceeded £ 2,000,000 antiiiallv.- In Kendal the price of gas is 12s. Gd. per 1,000 feet. The consumers are agitating for a reduction. The Court of Common Pleas, under the provisions of the late registration act, has decided that a "room" is such a "building" as will confer the right of voting at par- liamentary elections upon its occupier --Miss Simp- son, of Bradley, lately deceased, was, it is said, pos- sessed of a very large amount of personal property (estimated by some at £:300,000), which falls to the families of Miss Simpson's sisters—the present Lady P,ai-en,wortli and the late Lady Paul. Messrs. Scott and Sinclair, founders, Greenock, have constructed an IronsehonMiouse for Lady Noel Bvroti (the poet's wi- dow). It weighs eight or nine tons, and can readily be taken to pieces and put together again On the romantic isle of Arran, a week or two ago, the daughtei of a farmer was to have been married, and the day was fixed. On the bridal morn, the weather was stormy, and her friends did not assemble in such numbers as she had expcctcd. Her pride was wounded -she felt mortified that her lover should yvitness so small a cavalcade on her side, iviieii on his (she believed) there would be one of great extent; and the blow deprived her of reason, so that in a day or two she died ——— In the borough of Monmouth says the Beacon, in 1832, there were eighty-three resident burgesses. In 1844 there are only forty-six alive, thirty-seven having died in little more than ten years. The same paper says that Mr. Colling's 17 cows sold for £ 2802, and his 11 bulls for £ 2301, at his sale in 1S40. So much for attention to good sorts. There are five counties in England and four in Wales where the male exceeds the female population, viz., Herefordshire, Lincolnshire, Monmouthshire, Rutland- shire, Staffordshire, Breconshirc, Flintshire, Glamorgan- shire, and Radnorshire. In Herefordshire, by the last census the numbers stood thus, males 50,978, females 56,900 majority of males 78 in Monmouth- s hire, males 70,(300, females 63,749; Brccoashire, males 23,074, females 27,529,; Radnorshire, males 12,826, fe.,Paic- 12.;530.-111 Herefordshire the average annual value of a statute acre of land is estimated at 20s Monmouthshire, 15s 9d; Salop 20s 4d; Worcester 26s 2d; Brecon 7s Id; Radnorshire 8s 3d.—The lowest estimated value is in Cardiganshire, namely, 6s Sd per acre only.
