Dated December 9th, 1845. ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OiL. THIS faithful assistant of nature has, from intrinsic TNvorth alone, during the last half century, acquired the ESPECIAL PATRONAGE of the several SOVURBIONRT and, COURTS throughout Europe, and with RANK, FASHION, and DISCERNMENT, supersedes all preparations of pro- fessedly similar import. This Oil is pre-eminently successful in nourishing, improving and beautifying the Human Hair, in all climates, and in all stages of existence. The following is a brief notice of some of its PRINCIPAL VIRTUES, as a mild stimulative, corrective, and preservative agent, for the HAIR. The subject is more fully treated in a small Pamphlet which accompanies each bottle of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and wherein important hints and advice will be found on the Culture of the Hair in infancy, and on its preservation and beauty through the several stages of human life. INFANCY.—Its balsamic properties nourish the Hair in its embryo state, accelerate its growth, sustain it in maturity, and continue the possession of healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy, to the latest period of human life. Genial and purifying, it dispels all scurf and impurity, and renders the use of the fine comb unnecessary. BALDNESS.—Its re-productive powers are constantly and surprisingly shown in cases of Baldness from what- soever cause arising (proved by numerous testimonials open for inspection at the Proprietors,) in eliciting unerringly, from the latent stem the active progression of vitality, so that in numerous instances where other specifics have been tried in vain, ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL has superseded the ornaments of art by re-instating in full plenitude of beauty the permanent graces and utilities of nature. GREY HAIR.—Its nourishing properties are eminently successful in the PREVENTION of Grey Hair, and in the RESTORATION to its original colour-also proved by testimonials. WHISKERS AND MOUSTACHIOS.—Its extraordinary fecundity is singularly displayed in creating these orna- ments of manhood, and in the production of strong and beautiful Hair. CURL AND EMBELLISHMENT.—Its invigorating pro- perties induce a strong tendency to curl: on Artificial Hair it bestows a look of vitality and lightness—sustain- ing the Head Dress in all the beauties of decorative forma- tion, glossy curl, and silky softness, unimpaired by the heated atmosphere of crowded rooms, or damp weather. SEA-BATHING AND VIOLENT EXERCISE.—After in- dulging in either of these, so apt in their consequence (by opening the pores) to exhaust the nourishing matter secreted at the roots of the bulbs of the Hair, the Macas- sar Oil will be found most efficacious, both in preserving and in immediately restoring the hair to its usual appear- ance of health with renovated brightness. CLIMATE.—This inestimable Oil preserves its virtues unimpaired by change of climate, and is alike in use from the frigid to the torrid zone, from the assemblies of St. Petersburg to those of Calcutta and the remote East. CAUTION.—Unprincipled shop-keepers, for the sake of gaining a trifle more profit, vend the most spurious trash under the title of "MACASSAR OIL:" It is therefore imperative on Purchasers to see that the words ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL are in two lines on the Wrapper of each bottle, and on the inside of the wrapper nearly 1,500 times, containing 29,028 letters. Price 3s. 6d., 7s.—Family Bottles (equal to 4 small) 10s. 6d. and double that size, 21s. per Bottle. Sold by the Proprietors A. ROWLAND AND SON, 20, Hatton Garden, London, and by Chemists and Per- f'l>n_. All ntW "MACASSAR OILS" are FRAU- DULENT COUNTERFEITS. THE AMERICAN MEDICINE. DR. MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLS AND PHtENIX BITTERS. THESE Medicines have long been known throughout JL the American Continent, and appreciated for their extraordinary and immediate powers of restoring perfect health to persons suffering under nearly every kind of disease to which the human frame is liable. In many hundreds of certified instances, they have even rescued sufferers from the very verge of an un- timely grave, after all the deceptive nostrums of the dav had utterly failed; and to many thousands they have permanently secured that uniform enjoyment of health without which life itself is but a partial blessing. So great, indeed, has their efficacy invariably and infallibly proved, that it has appeared scarcely less than miraculous to those who were unacquainted with the beautifully phi- losophical principles upon which they are compounded' and upon which they consequently act. The first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels the various impurities and crudities; constantly settling around them and to remove the hardened faeces which collect in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to pro- duce habitual costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sudden diarrhoea, with its imminent dangers. This fact is well known to all regular anatomists, who examine the human bowels after death and hence the prejudice of these well informed men against the quack medicines of the age. The second effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red colour from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heart, being thus purified by them, and nourished by food coming from a clean stomach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the system and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. The following are among the distressing variety of human diseases in which the Vegetable Life Pills are well known to be infallible:- DYSPEPSIA, 'by thoroughly cleansing the first and second stomachs, and creating a flow of pure healthy bile, instead of the stale and acrid kind :—Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heartburn and Headaches, Restlessness, Ill-temper, Anxiety, I-an- gour, and Melancholy, which are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will vanish as a natural consequence of its cure. Costiveness by cleansing the whole length of the intestines with a solvent process, and without violence: all violent purges leave the bowels costive within two days. Diarrhoea and Cholera, by removing the sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints are occasioned, and by promoting the lubricative secretions of the mucous membrane. Fevers of all kinds, by restoring the blood to a regular circulation through the process of perspiration in some cases, and the thorough solution of all intestinal ob- structions in others. The Lifc Medicines have been known to cure Rheumatism permanently in three weeks, and GUlt t in half that time, by removing local inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of the joints. Dropsies of all kinds by freeing and strengthening the kidneys and bladder; they operate most delightfully on those im- portant organs, and hence have ever been found a certain remedy for the worse cases of Gravel. Also Worms by dislodging from the turnings of the bowels the slimy matter to which these creatures adhere; Asthma and Consumption, by relieving the air vessels of the lungs from the mucous, which even slight colds will occasion, which, if not removed becomes hardened, and produces those dreadful diseases. Scurvy Ulcers, and Inveterate Sores, by the perfect purity which these Life Pills give to the blood and all the humours Scor- butic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, by their alterative effects upon the fluids that feed the skin? the morbid state of which occasions all Eruptive (Complaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions. The use of these Pills for a very short time will effect an entire cure of Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, and a striking improvement in the Clearness of the Skin. Common Colds and Influenza will always be cured by one dose, or by two, even in the worst cases. Ililes-as a remedy for this most distressing and obstinate malady, the Vegetable Life Pills deserve a distinct and emphatic recommendation. It is well known to hundreds in the city of New York, that the originator of these invaluable Pills was himself afflicted with this complaint for upwards of thirty-five years, and that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed within the whole compass of the Materia Medica. He, however, at length tried the medicine which is now offered to the public, and he was cured in a very short time, after his recovery had been pronounced not only improbable, but absolutely impos- sible, by any human means. The Life Medicine will never fail to eradicate entirely all the effects of Mercury, infinitely sooner than the most powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla, and will immediately cure the determination of BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never fail in the sickness iticident to young females; and will be found a certain remedy in all cases of nervous debility and weakness of the most impaired constitutions. The PHOENIX BITTERS are sold in bottles at 4s. 6d. and 9s. each; and the LIFE PILLS in boxes at Is. lid., 2s. 3d., and 4s. 6d. each. SOLE AGENTS. White, Chymist, Carmarthen- WILSON, Chymist, SWANSEA.

Extract oj a Letter from John Martin,Esq., Chronicle" Office, Tobago, West litdies:- February 4th, 1845. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. Sir,—I beg to inform you that the inhabitants of this Island, especially those who cannot afford to employ medical gentlemen, are very anxious of having your astonishing Medicines within their reach, from the im- mense benefits some of them have derived from their use, as they have been found here, in several cases, to cure Sores and Ulcers of the most malignant and des- perate kind. One gentleman in this Island, who had, I believe, about fifty running ulcers about his legs, arms, and body, who had tried all other Medicines before the arrival of yours, but all of which did him no good; but yours cured him in about six weeks, and he is now, by their means alone, quite restored to health and vigour. (Signed) JOHN MARTIN. PILES, FISTULAS, AND BEAIIINGS-DOWN. A remarkable Cure by these Pills and Ointment.—A j half-pay lieutenant, lately residing at St. Heliers, Jersey, whose name by request is omitted, had for three years suffered from piles an d fistula, besides a general bearing down, of the most distressing nature. He had twice undergone an operation, but to no purpose, and at last gave himself up to despair. Yet, notwithstanding this complication of complaints, togeUier with a debilitated constitution, he was completely cured of all his infir- mitics and restored to the full enjoyment of health by these justly renowned medicines, when every other means had failed. Extraordinary Cure in the West Indies, of Leprosy and other direful skin diseases. June 3rd, 1844. Mr. Lewis Recdon, of Georgetown, Demerara, writes under the above date—that Hollowav Is Pills and Oint- ment have cured bad legs that no doctor could manage, ulcers and sores that were of the most dreadful descrip- tion, as likewise leprosy, blotches, scales and other skin diseases of the most frightful nature, and that the cures effected there by these wonderful medicines are so nume- rous and extraordinary as to astonish the whole population. Cancered Breast.- A Wonderful Circumstance. Copy of a Letter from Richard Bull, Bootmaker, Tatton, near Southampton. "February 9th, 1845. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. SIR,—The Lord has permitted to be wrought a wonderful cure of Cancers or Abscesses, of twelve years' standing, in my wife's breast. In the latter part of the time, eleven wounds were open at once. The Faculty declared the case as past cure, several pieces of bone had come away, and I expected that my poor wife would soon have been taken from jnc. It was then that a friend recommended the use of your Pills and Ointment, which to our utter astonishment, in the space of about three months, healed up the breast as soundly as ever it was in her life. I shall ever remain Your most grateful and obedient servant, (Signed) RICHARD BULL." WTieezing on the Chest and Shortness of Breath. Copy of a Letter from Mr. Jeremiah Casey, No. 1, Compton-place, Compton-slreet, Brunswick-square, London, April 25th, 1845. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. SIR,—I beg to inform you that I believe I had been for more than three years, one of the greatest sufferers in the world with Chronic Asthma. For weeks together my breath was frequently so short that I was afraid every moment of being choked with phlegm. I never went into a bed very often, indeed, I have been obliged to pass the night without being able to recline sufficiently to lay my head on a table, lest I should be suffocated. No one thought I should live over the winter, nor did I expect it myself; but I am happy to say that I am now able to work from morning to night, and that I sleep as well as, ever I did in my life and this miracle (I may say) was effected by rubbing your invaluable Ointment twice a day into my chest, and taking ten of your Pills at bed-time, and ten again in the morning, for about three months. (Signed) JEREMIAH CASEY. In all Diseases of the Skin, Bad Legs, Old Wounds- and Ulcers, Bad Breasts, Sore Nipples, Stoney and Ulcerated Cancers, Tumours, Swellings, Gout, Rheu- matism, and Lumbago, likewise in cases of Piles; Holloway's I ) ills, in all the above cases, ought to be used with the Ointment; as by this means cures will be effected with a much greater certainty, and in half the time that it would require by using the Ointment alone. The Ointment is proved to be a certain remedy for the bite of Moschettoes, Sand-flies, Chiego-foot, Yaws, and Coco-bay, and all skin Diseases, common to the East and West Indies, and other tropical climes. Burns, Scalds, Chilblains, Chapped Hands and Lips, also Bunions and Soft Corns, will be immediately cured by the use of the Ointment.

Mr. Clarke can say, without the slightest exaggeration, that he has sold 3,000 bottles of Succedaneum within 16 months; & 2,800 individuals have been able to use it successfully; and most of the other pur- chasershave been to Mr.Clarke, athis residence, 61, Lower Grosvenor-Street, London, to have their teeth stopped, without any further charge than the original cost of the Succedaneum, price 5s. Sold wholesale to all the che- mists in town and country; and none is genuine unless had through Messrs. Barclay and Sons, wholesale Medi- cine Warehouse, 95, Farringdon Street Edwards and Son, 67, St. Paul's Church-yard; Hannay and Co., 63, Oxford Street; Colleck and Moseley, 139, Upper Thames Street, London and other respectable wholesale Medi- cine Warehouses or Mr. Clarke can send it by post to any part of the United Kingdom, on receiving a Post- office order. FOR STOPPING DECAYED TEETH, HOWEVER LARGE THE CAVITY.. fatronised by Her Majesty the Queen Dowager, Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, His Grace D t,W- of li ailt.nf/ton, and the principal Nobility. Mr. CLARKE's^uccEDANBuS^SG-^wpfjiir^Kecayea Teeth is far superior to a'I y t h ii nZg WTedibefore, as it I is placed in the tooth without any pressure or pain, be- comes as hard as the enamel immediately after applica- tion, and remains firm in the tooth tor life not only rendering extraction unnecessary, butilso making them again useful for mastication. All persons can use Mr. CLARKE'S Succedaneum themselves with ease, as full directions are enclosed (price 5s.) and sold by all res- pectable medicine-vendors in town and country, and can be sent by post on receiving a Post-office order.—Pre- pared only by Mr. Clarke, Surgeon-dentist, 61, Grosvenor Street, Bond Street, (removed from 53, Harley-Street, Cavendish-Square. ) LOSS OF TEETH. Mr. CLARKE still continues to supply the loss of teeth, from one to a complete set, upon his beautiful system of self-adhesion, which has procured him such universal approbation in some thousands of cases; and recom- mended by Sir James Clark, bart., M.D., and Dr. Locock, Physicians to Her Majesty, and numerous other mem- -tn d numerous ot h er meni- bers of the medical profession, as being the most in- genious system of supplying artificial teeth hitherto invented. They are so contrived, as to adapt themselves over the most tender gums or remaining stumps without causing the least pam, rendering the operation of ex- traction quite unnecessary and in order that his system may be within the reach of the most economical, he will continue the same moderate charges.-—Mr. Clarke.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. We regard the work before us. The SILENT FRIEND, as a work embracing most clear and practical view? of a series of complaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the Medical profession, for what reason w e are at a toss to know. We must however confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordialiy wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffering from indiscietion, to profit by the advice contained in its pages."— Age and Anjus. "The Authors ofTH1 Rn.ENT FltlRND seemtobethorou?htv conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are, we fear, too prevalent iu the present day. The per- spicuous style in which this book is written, and the va- luable hints it couveys to those who arc apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to recommend it to a careful perusal."—ERA.

REVIEWS OF THE WOLLK. Mr. La"Niert, eing- a regularly educated member of. 'Jle medical profession, and possessed of the highest qualifications, is a strong inducement alone to recommend his work to the perusal of all who feel interested in such matters, for it is a subject of M much importance to the moralist as to the me- dical practitioner; and it really is surprising to s(' that nothing worthy of notice is to lie found on a matter so im- portant in the various writings of standard authors. This cir- cumstance appears remarkable and unaccountable, when ex- perience has shown that local weaknesses and imperfections, either hereditary or acquired, constitute the great majority, perhaps nine-tenths of the causes of nervousness, mental imbecility, and constitutional weakness. We must confess we are astonished at the extent of human suffering, anxiety, and misery which is pourtrayed in this work, as emanating from peculiar causes, which are not less ruinous, because they are not supposed to exist, Uniortunatt'Iy, there is a false de- licacy and a false refinement in the present age, which rather seeks to gloss over immorality than to combat and subdue it. We can oiiIN- -aN-, that every one who reads this extra- ordinary work will h gratified and enlightened by its peru- sal."— ft\I 1.WAY BELL. Unquestionably this is the most extraordinary and skilful work of the kind ever written. It breathes, throughout, a higii tone of moral feeling, and ought to be extensively cir- culated; for it is quite evident that there are peculiar habits acquired at public schools and private seminaries, which are totally unknown and concealed from the conductors of those establishments, and which cannot be too strongly reprobated and condemned. The author has taken up the subject in a masterly and perspicuous style; and being written by a duly qualified medical practitioner, W11.1 doubtless be the means of saving many a youth, as well as those of mature age, from the various evil consequences resulting from such indiscretion'.
