IMPORTANT CHEMICAL DISCOVERY For Cleaning Gold and Silver Plate, Jewellery, Silver Plated Goods, &e. WITHOUT WEARING OR INJURING THE PRECIOUS MgTAL IN THE SLIGHTEST DEGltEB. The following Letter from Dr. UltE, the eminent Chemist, at once establishes the value of this new discovery :— I.-Gold or Silver Plate, however tarnished, is polished nstantaneously, without tiouble. 2 —The loss of the pure metals by friction is entirely avoided. 3.T-Silver Plate, when cleaned, presents a pure white or virgin silvery appearance, of the greatest brilliancy, and will remain in this stale for a much greater length of time than when cleaned with the ordinary Plate Powders. 4.—The mass of pure metal is not at all injured by this pre- paration. as is the case with the quicksilver mixtures Plate may be cleaned daily with the SILV0-GAI.V A NIC CUE AM,and at the end of twelve months will be found not to have lost a grainof its original weight! I have examined the preparation invented by Messrs. JON gS ffr Cleaning Silver, called SILVO-GALVASIC CREAM, and' find it to be safe, effectual, and instantaneous in its operation. BEING FOUNDED ON CHEMICAL PRINCIPLES, it merely tP- moves the tarnish on plate, and restores the white silver lustre without abrading or wearing the precious metal in the SLIGHTEST degree. ANDREW UltE. M.D., F.R.S., &c., Professor of Chemistry and Analytical Chemist. London, 13, Charlotte-streer, Bedford-square, 8th March, 1845. Certification of Messrs. RIPPON and BURTON. Gentlemen,—We have given your valuable discovery a fair trial, and have no hesitation in saying that it is :he best com- pound we have ever tried for Cleaning Gold and Silver WITH- OUT FRICTION OR WEARING AWAY THE METAL, and shall accept the agency for its sale with great pleasure. (Signed) HHTON and BUTTON, Furnishing Ironmongers. Oxford-street, May 226, 1U45. This extraordinary discovery must, before many months have elapsed, become of general use in the establishment of every nobleman and gentleman in the kingdom. It is, indeed, remarkable that gentlemen possessing large quantities of va- luable Plate should so long have allowed the use of such destructive compounds as the ordinary Plate Powders for cleaning nnd polishing articles rendored invaluable as H lSTo- RICAL FAMILY KECORDS of some interesting or important event. If any person would test for himsr.lt' the truth of these remarks, he has only to observe the action of quicksilver when placed in contact with pure gold or silver, it combines with the pure metals, and ultimaiely renders them as brittle as pewter. This result will explain the numerous accidents arising from the slightest blow or fall, when plates of silver, chased and worked at immense expense, are broken into pieces like glass; the fragments being considerably less valuable than the unwronght mcul, until by a. difficult and tedious process the silver is repurified. But this is not the only evil arising from the amalgamation of qu:cksilver with the pure metal. Persons ignorant of the laws of chemistry have encouraged the use of corrosive Plate Powders, for giving a brilliant polish to silver whereas the silver is not at all polished, the surface being only covered with a coating of quicksilver, which, from its great affinity for oxygen, will remain brilliant only for an hour; and, consequently, before the article po- lished can be again used, will require another rubbing or filing awny of this corroded surface, to be replaced by afresh layer of quicksilver, until layer alter layer of the pure metal is taken away, gradually reducing it to a thin and paltry plate, tilting it only for the crucible of the silversmith. In large establishments, where plate in considerable qttan- tity is cleaned, it is customary for persons to purchase the old rags, or wash-leather, which have been used for cleaning plate, in order to sell them to silver or noW refiners, who de- rive no inconsiderable profit from the pure metal contained in these dirty leathers or rags. "PUie may be Cleaned daily with this Compound, and at the expiration of twelve months will be found not to have lost a grain of its original weight! It is of little consequence whether the article to be cleaned has been laid by for nay* or years, whether it be only dis- oloured, or tarnished as black as hat, immediately on the application of the SILVO-G A I.VANI'3 CltKAM, the disco louration is removed, and then, with iiisoft and clean wash- leaiher. a most brilliant and virgin-white polish may be produced. In chased silver the deepest nook and corner, where dirt and corrosion are so difficult to remove, become equally polished with the level surface, by simply using a soft plate-brush. The maipier of using it is so simple that a child may, in a few seconds, produce a polish, which,In the ordinary way, could not be given by an experienced plate cleaner in as many hours.

FOR STOPPING DECAYED TEETH, however JD large the cavity.—Patronised by her Majesty the Queen Dowager, Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester, His Grace the Duke of Wellington, and the principal nobility. Mr. CLARKE'S SUCCEDANEUM for stopping decayed teeth, is far superior to anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth without any pressure or pain, becomes as hard as the enamel imme- diately after application, and remains firm in the tooth for life; not only rendering extraction unnecessary, but also making them again useful for mastication. All persons can use Mr. CLARKE'S SUCCEDA- NEUM themselves with ease, as full directions are enclosed—price 5s. -and sold by all respectable Medicine Vendors in Town and Country; and can be sent by post on receiving a post-office order. Prepared 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 recommended by Sir C. M. Clark, Bart., M.D.; Sir M. Tierney, Bart., M.D.; Dr. Chambers, Dr. Paris, Dr. James Johnson, Dr. Conquest, and nu- merous other Members of the Medical Profession, as being the most ingenious system of supplying artificial teeth hitherto invented. They are so contrived as to adapt themselves over the most tender gums, or remain- ing stumps, without causing the least pain, rendering the operation of extraction 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, Surgeon-Dentist, No. 61, Grosvenor-street, Bond-street, London.—At home from eleven till four. Mr. CLARKE'S TOOTH-POWDER, which has procured him such universal approbation, in some thou- sands of cases, is highly recommended by numerous Physicians and Surgeons, as being the best tooth-powder ever yet prepared it prevents and eradicates the tartar from the teeth, and imparts to the gums that ruddy appearance, and to the teeth a pearl-like whiteness. Mr. Clarke can say with safety (as it is prepared only by him) that, if analysed, its properties would be found to be of the purest kind. It can be sent by post, on re- ceiving a post-office order! and it is sold by most respectable Chemists in town and country-price 2s. 6d. GLAMORGANSHIRE EASTERN DISTRICT.

"if.Rs>Considering the public would.be benefitted bv the publication of the extraordinary effects produced by taking 1 ARR s LIFE PILLS, I beg most respectfully to forward you the particulars of my case, so that the proprietors may be made aware of it. I was first attacked in 1«37, with a Ner- vous Affection and Dyspepsia, or Indigestion, which caused, at limes, verý great constipation of the bowels, and excruci- ating pain, for which I went under the care of several medical gentlemen, and one physician in Birmingham, without deriv- ing any great benefits; in 1839-40 I was very much worse, and the attacks came on more frequently, and continued up to March, lti43, when accidentally hearing of PARR S LIFE 1 ILLs, I was induced to try them, and with very great success so much so that it has all left me, and I am able to follow my employment as I used to do prior to my attack, & beg further to state that I feel stronger than ever I did in my life before, and my looks bespeak it. I always keep a box of the pills by me, and use them when nature .requires an aperient medicine. Wishing the proprietors every success with their valuable pre- scription. 1 am, Sir, yours obediently —— JOHN THOMAS.

Intelligent as most certainly the community now are, comparatively with the state of society in former times, 1 1.. ,re aPPears to have been one essential matter over- looked in the search for intelligence and happiness. How often do medical men recommend exercise to their pa- tients for indigestion, liver complaints, costiveness, sick head-aches, &c. Females leading an inactive life, and thousands of both sexes are, through their sundry avoca- tions, debarred from that exercise in a pure atmosphere which is essential to health; to all such, therefore, we would recommend the occasional use of that excellent family medicine, "Frampton's Pill of Health," which, as a restorative, a gentle aperient, and a promoter of a healthy action of the system, stands unequalled in public estimation. THE LA.TB WHIRLWIND AT Rouex.—New wonders come to light respecting the whirlwind at Rouen. At the stttmg of the Paris Academy of Sciences,*<m the 25th August, M. Arago gave a report, derived from letters r \? Precisier, and Lecoq wb hat ot M. Precisier, being the most precise* furnishes the substance of the following account. The blast or + whirlwind in question had its origin at Houlme, a village two leagues from Rouen. Two violent winds, proceeding in contrary directions, having met, a cone was formed, which descended from the clouds, with its summit towards the eartb; and it had a revolving motion of terrible rapidity. From its centre issued flashes of lightning, and it emitted a strong smell of sulphur. Some persons, v ho saw it advance with enormous speed, have assured M. Precisier that the black and red clouds moved vertically driven backwards and forwards with prodigious force; they also heard a rolling noise, similar to that which pre- cedes bail. 14c barometer fell suddenly from 756 to 740 in i I millimetres, the temperature of the air became very ele- vated, and the whirlwind was preceded by a current of air to warm that some persons before a large fire felt if strongly. The meteor rushed Eastward, overthrowing everything it met with in its course it passed through a forest without losing any of its power, snapping 0[1 or twisting the trees, and casting them right and left; then struck a cotton-factory four stories in height, and in a second demolished it, crushing the persons who were within its walls. The dwelling-houses which were in the immediate vicinity tf( this factory were butslightly injured for the whirlwind did not take a direct course,"but went. in a zigzag, and appeared to be attracted by the. great masses of iron in the machinery of the factories. Auhe second factory that it attacked, the third floor was removed in an instant, as if by suction [a«piratioaJ; aaJ some of the fragments were carrier to a distance of Several leagues. The third factory, in lwhich there were nearly two hundred persons at work, was demolished with the same rapidity as the other two. The meteor then con- tinued its course towards Malaunay, devastating tue country as it proceeded; but at Cieve» effect ceased. A violent wind, caused by this (rightfiil (perturbation at one point, blew from it towards all Uhe environs, tuid was felt at an enormous distance. At 1..11 Chapeiie, near • Dieppe, a distance of nine Utfffuest » shepherd saw tail a piank of more than a metre in length, slates, portions of window*, cotton, »nd many ,°ther objects fall near tha same spot. All the facts which were witnessed, says M.
