Extract of a letter from the Rev. C. Lyne, Rector of Roche, Cornwall: There are many individuals within the sphere of my ac- quaintance who have derived benefit in the use of this invalu- able ointment; they desire not to have their names published, but I shall te happy to give particulars to any person who miuhl wish to obtain them from me. I may add, that having studied the science of medicine for many years, I have ex- perimentally proved the virtue of this ointment, in the cure of wountis and indolents ulcers. A parishioner of mine, callcd Richard Oliver, had a running wound in his leg for upwards of 20 years, and was completely cured by using the Poor Man's Friend, according to the directions. Indeed, I deem a pot of this ointment to be one of the most necessary ingredients in my medicine chest. "I have the honour to be, gentlemen, your obedient servant, •' CHARLES LYNK, Uector of Roche.

Rowland's Macassar Oil. rrHIS faithful assistant of nature has, from intrinsic worth alone, duting the last half century, acquired tile ESPECUL PATRONAGE of Ihe several SOVEREIGNS and COURTS throughout Europe, and with RANK, FASHION, and DISCERNMENT, supersedes all preparations of professedly similar import. This Oil is pre-eminently successful in nourishing, improv- ing and beautifying the Human Hair, in all climates, anil in 11.11 stages of existence. The following is a brief notice of som< of its PRINCIPAL VIRTUES, as a mild, stimulative, cor- rective, and preservative agent for the Hair. The subject is more fully treated in a small Pamphlet which accompanies each boltleof ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and wherein im- portant hints and advice will be found on the Culture of the Hair of 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 con- tinue the possession of healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy, to the latest period of humau 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 whatsoever 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 in- stances where other specifics have been tried in vain, ilow- LAND'S MACASSAR OIL has superseded the ornaments of art by re-instating in full plentitude of beauty tl:e 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 leSlimonials. WHISKERS AND M0UST\CHI0S. Its extraordinary fecundity is singularly displayed in creating these ornaments of manhood, and in the production of strong and beautiful Hair. CURL AND EMBELLISHMENT. Its invigorating properties induce a strong tendency to curl: to Artificial Hair it imparts a look of vitality and light. ness and sustains the Head Dress in all [he beauties of decorative formation, glossy curl, aud silky softness, unimpaired by the heated atmosphere of crowded rooms, or damp" eather. SEA-BATHING AND VIOLENT EXERCISE. After indulging in either of these, so apt in their conse- quence (by opening the pores) to exhaust the nourishing matter secreted at the roots or bulbs of the hair, the Macassar Oil will be found most efficacious, both in preserving and in immediately restoring the hair to its usual appearance of health with renovated brightness. CH MATE. 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.

Sydenham's Antibilious Aperient Family Pill of Health For both Sexes, entirely Vegetable, prepared from the Prescrip- tion of that eminent Physician, Dr. SYI)ENHA M, who was justly styled the" Father of Modern Medicine." A MOST valuable remedy for Bilious and Liver Com- plaints, Indigestion, Head-Ache, Giddiness, Loss of Appetite, Flatulency, Gout, Rheumatism, Heartburn, Spasms, Lowness of Spiiits, Costiveness, &c. These celebrated FAMILY t!LLS have been faithfully dis- pensed by the present Proprietor for more than 30 years, and have obtained from all grades of the community a character and reputation which no medicine of a similar nature has hitherto acquired. Dr. SYDENHAM'S PILLS being a most happy combination of vegetable matter, and not contain- ing any mercurial pieparation, require neither confinement nor alteration in diet during Iheir use. Moderate exercise in- creases their good effects. They may be taken at any time e when the bowels are costive and uneasy; and Sydenham's Pills shonld be taken by persons of all ages, as they assist digestion, correct excesses of the table, give a healthy action and tone to the stomach, remove all complaints to which the digestive organs are subject, and will lead to health and cheer- ful old age. Families and the Proprietors of Boarding Schoo's should never be without an adequate supply of this admirable Family Medicine, as SYDENHAM'S PILLS may be resorted to with the greatest safely and success, on the first appearance of indis- position, and by adopting this practice, many serious and too often fatal attacks will be entirely prevented. I he following is the opinion of an eminent Physician practis- illg extensively in Bristol and Clifton- I have examined the composition of Dr. Sydenham's Pills, and consider them a very valuable remedy in all com- plaints to which the Digestive Organs are subject, especially Bilious affections, and an innumerable variety of diseases which are the consequences of an iiregular and imperfect tion of the organs of digestion." < w < The most delicate Females, the young and aged, prcfe SYDENHAM'S PILLS to most other aperients, as they are benelicial to their general health, improve their appearance, and being a VEGETABLE PREPARATION, they are at once mud, safe, and effectual. The high opinion entertained of SYDENHAM'S FAMM.Y PII.LS, by many fit the most eminent of the Faculty, in pre- sent practice, (as well as the number of gratifying Testimonials I !e, i'rolJ1"ie,or is constantly receiving from persons of the ughest respectability and standing in society who have been materially benefitted by their use,) renders any eulogium on their merits superfluous, and must convince the most sceptical of the superior properties of this valuable established medi- cinc acknowledged by thousands as the best, safest, and most effectual Family Medicine now before the Public. These Pills are sent abroad by the London exporting nouses. Merchants and Captains of vessels will find them an almost indispensible acquision to their Medicine Chests, they are so prepared as to retain their medicinal properties in any extreme of climate.

MONMOUTHSHIRE QUARTER SESSIONS. The Quarter Sessions for the county of Monmouth com- menced on Monday week at Usk, before the Right Honorable Lord Granville Somerset, Chairman, and a full bench of Magistrates. The Orders oflast Sessions were read by the clerk of the peace, when a preliminary discussion took place relative to the erection of a PAUPER LUNATIC ASYLUM, in the course of which Mr. Bosanquet read a long communication he had received from the Chairman of the Hereford Court of Quarter Sessions, in respect to the question, in which that court declined joining the county of Monmouth, excepting they could succeed in buying up the subscribers' interests in the Gloucester Asylum, and then amalgamate the th ree couoties. The chairman and several of the magistrates entered into a lengthened and de- sultory conversation, in the course of which, he stated that without any wish at present to discuss the question, his own impression generally, was, that it would be much more ex- pensive to have an asylum exclusively for the county of Mon. mouth, than a junction with some neighbouring county. His impression, was, that Breconvhire would more probably join with Monmouthshire than any other,-it was possible that the counties of Hereford or Glamorgan may do so, but of that he could at present entertain no opinion. After other observa- tions from Mr. W. A. Williams relative to the wordiug of the third section of the Act of Parliament, It was proposed by Sir Digby Mackworth and seconded by Samuel Bosanquet, Esq.,—That a committee be appointed to institute the necessary communications with the neighbouring counties to ascertain what is the course which each county is inclined to pursue in regard to the establishment of County Lunatic Asylums for pauper and other lunatics and further, that the said committee exercise their own discretion in con. sidering the question generally, and shall report their opinions on the several points proposed in the said Act to the ensuing quarter sessions for this county. The report of the committee as to the best use which can be made of the land belonging to the county adjoining the House of Correction was then read, and was to the following effect:—"In order to bring the land into a proper state for cul- tivation, it will be necessary to trench and clear the whole of the stones, and to remove or bury the stones and rubbish. An estimate has been made of the expense, which will amount to an outlay which the committee consider to be large, but which would yield a return of £5 per cent. The. commit- tee are of opinion that there would be serioas objections to letting the land, and that it must remain in the occupation of the magistrates or the governor." It was proposed by Mr. M'Doncell, that the report of the committee be adopted, which on a division was carried. GOVERNOR OF THE HOUSE OF CORRECTION.—Mr. Protheroe stated that in his opinion Mr. -terretl was totally incapacitated from filling the situation of Governor of the House of Correc- tion-there were two grounds of his utifittiess-the first being that he does not possess the necessary qualifications to carry on the several systems of the prison to the satisfaction of the court. The magistrates, at a considerable expense and a great taxation of the county, had built a House of Correction with the express and avowed intention of carrying out a different system of prison discipline to that which had heretofore been adopted-its leading object being the separate system, which it was intended should have a sanatory effect upon the con. dition of the unfortunate individuals who were confined within its walls; such as to eventually make them better members of society when they left. It was therefore absolutely necessary that the governor should be in every way Sued to the important office he held, and if it coulll be shown be was not so, then it became the imperative duty of the magistrates to dismiss him. Mr. Prothero then proceeded at great length to urge objections against the governor's competency and general respectability, concluding by moving—That Mr. Merrett, the governor of the House of Correction at Usk, having been found not to possess those qualifications which are essential to the efficient management of the prison, be forthwith removed from his office." The Rev. Thomas Pope briefly seconded the motion. Mr. Bosanquet said that if the motion now before them was carried, he would gladly vote for a substantial remuneration for the important services Mr. Merrett had heretofore ren- dered the county, and concluded by animadverting very strongly on the nature of Merrett's defence, in which the character of the committee, its constitution, and ptoceedings had been impugned. Francis M'Donnell, Esq., then rose and said the proceedings were not conducted with that fairness towards Mr. Merrett which was due to every person placed upon his trial. It Apt peared to him (Mr. M'Donnell) that the governor had been arraigned upon one set of charges and convicted upon another. The evidence adduced against him was of such a nature that its admission would have been absolutely refused in any court of justice in the kingdom. Prisoners who had been subject to his allthority-discarded turnkeys-or at least at variance with him, had been examined, and that too in the absence of the accused. It is a piece of the English law-it was a part of the Roman law-it is a part of the law of every civilized nation, that the accused should have every facility given to him whereby he may test the truth or the falsehood of the testimony given against him and what is all this evidence ? What docs it all come lo ? It is all air-it is all exploaed- the only evidence on which you can rely is that of VI r. Hom'ray; as to the other evidence, it is all contradicted; upon Mr. Hum- fray depends the whole case, aud here the governor was not dealt fairly with in being called "pon to reply to three or four pages of evidence. 1\Ir. Merrett should have been given the opportunity of cross-examining Mr. Homfray, and not have been thus suddenly called on to reply to evidence which had been given in his absence; as it is, Mr. Hoinfray's evidence is a piece of perfect moonshine he had the highest respect for Mr. Homfray; be did not accuse him of being any thing but a strictly moral, religious, and honourable man; but he (Mr. M'Donnell) challenged contradiction in saying that when Mr. Homfray first came to the prison, Mr. Merrett offered him every assistance in his power. Mr. M'Donnell concluded a very eloquent address by moving as an amendment, That the motion of Mr. Protheroe be negatived." Mr. Wj, A. Williams felt very great pleasure in seconding Mr. M'f/onnell's amendment. The Hev. James Coles supported the motion, and Sir Digby Mackworth and the Rev.Mr.Irving supported the amendment after which The Chairman said that probably the bench would wish him to express some opinion on the subject, which his lordship did in an exceedingly clear aud lucid manner, stating in conclu- sion he did not think he should be sufficiently justified in recording his verdict of guilty upou the evidence adduced he could not countenance an opinion that Mr. Merrett was guilty of the immoral conduct laid to his charge. A division now took place, which was announced by the chairman as 13 in favourof Mr. M'Donnell's amendment, and 6 against it. The discussion lasted four hours. FINANCE COMMITTEE.—The report of the Finance Com. mittee was then lead, in which some observations were made on the Coroners' charges for inquests held upon perltPs who had died from natural causes, and recommending enquiry thereon; also recommending a county rate of oac penny in the pouHd; and referring to an arrangement about taking place with the town-council of the borogh of Newport, relative to the expenses of the removal of the prisoners from that borough to Usk prison. DEFAULTERS.—The Treasurer reported that the Uniou of Abergavenny, nor the parish of Alamhilad, had paid their quota of the county rate. Mr. Batt, clerk of the Union, pro- mised the payment of the same in a few days, and the court took no further notice of the matter. SURVEYOR'S REPORT.—The Surveyor's report was read, in which it was suggested that some repairs and alterations were required to be made to some of the county bridges, among which was £8 for the repair of Newport bridge; t 14 10s. for repairing the road on Chepstow bridge. His lordship remarked it was one of the lightest he had known for some years. THE QUARTERLY PRISON REPORTS were then read. The report from Monmouth prison stated that a course of loose bricks had been placed on the outside the prison-walls, and that the gaol was in a healthy condition. The report from the House of Correction stated that the prison had been conducted according to the rules, and was generally satisfactory. On Tuesday and Wednesday the trials of prisoners were proceeded with. No case of any particular interest was heard.

BRECONSHIRE QUARTER SESSIONS. These Sessions were held at the County Hall, Brecon, on Tuesday and Wednesday week, before John Jones, Esq., Glatihonddu, chairman, Peniy Williami, Esq., Penpoat, Lord Lieutenant, and a filII bench of magistrates. The court assembled at II o'clock on'I uesday, when the first business transacted was the ordering of the County rate for the ensuing quarter. The Hev. Hugh Bold read the report of the Visiting Magistrates, from which it appears that the balance in hand at the last Sessious amounted to £133<; 16s. 5d.; that the payments since made on account of the erection of the County Hall wete £362 10s. The bills paid amounted £629. The estimated costs of prosecutions, at the present Sessions was £2;"): and the estimated costs of prosecutions at the next Assizes, XIOJ. At the Easter Sessions a sum of J765 would become due on account of the Hall, and the estimated expenses would amount tot 1600, leaving, after pro- viding for salaries and the payments he had mentioned, a balance of merely £J3 in hand, but as another rale would come in before Juue Sessions this might be found enough. J. Parry De Winton, Esq., begged to remind the Court that a heavy call would before that time be payable 011 account of the County Roads Board. The Hev. Hugh Bold replied that it would be payable from a separate Road Rate, and would not be iucluded in the County Accounts; and he further observed that as there would be very heavy payments coming due for 5 or 6 years, it would be as well to keep to a three-halfpenny rate during that period. A three-halfpenny rate was then agreed to. STATE OF THE COUNTY GAOL. The learned chairman then called the attention of the Court t" a communication from Sir James Graham, Secretary of State for the Home Department, urging the attention of the county magistrates to the report of Mr. Penry, Inspector of Prisons, which strongly condemned the Gaol of this county. John Powell, Esq., Clerk of the Peace, lead the letters referred to and observed that the changes in the law respect- ing debtors, and erection of a military prison, had considera- bly altered the circumstances of the case. The chairman suggested that it would be advisable to take, such steps at would prove a disposition on the part of the magistracy to pay immediate attention to the recommendations of the secretary of state; and he therefore proposed that a committee should be appointed to investigate the stale of the gaol, with the view of ascertaining what alterations and im- provements could be made to meet the wishes of the govern- ment. After some further observations from the Rev. Hugh Bold and J. Parry De Wiulbn, Esq., it was resolved that the lord lieutenant, the chairman, and the visiting magistrates "hould be appointed a committee for the purpose, so as to report at the next adjourned sessions, at which every acting magistrate in the county should be specially summoned to attend. rite chairman then stated that he held in his hands a paper containing charge. brought by the chaplain against the go- vernor ot the gaol; and after some short discussion among the magistrates, it was determined that the preliminary investi- g«tion should be a private one, and the chairman staling that 'Jhn TV-it»*h°ul<l. *>C P«hlic during the sessions.

I he Hev. C. Griffith seconded the motion. i e ey- I hos. Vanghan said he thought £ 20 might be j'' J M. ro4d w,s al'eady sufficiently wide but c ined moving an amendment to the resolution, which was accordingly carried. With respect to the chaplain's charges, the following reso- bv J°"m *7 .T mrtd b* the Lord Lieutenant, and seconded { y. •. s9* observed that he now entertained a higher opinion of Mr. Lazenby's conduct than ever) rhe Reverend Morgan Jones, Chaplain to the Gaol and House of Correction, having made complaints against the Governor and Head Turnkey, and the same having been investigated by this court: Resolved, that such complaints have not been proved, and that it is the duty of the chaplain to report in his minute book all matters of complaint, as the same may from time to time occur to him, which does not appear to have been the case in the present instance." The chairman then communicated to the chaplain that as he had accepted the perpetual curacy of Llanthew, contrary to the stipulations of his appointment, his duties as chaplain would cease from this day which the rev. gentleman said he was aware of. Mr. Lazenby was then directed to discharge Price, one of the under turnkeys, who had been examined, with a week's notice. PAUPER LUNATICS—The chairman then called the atten- tion of the court to the act lately passed with regard to county lunauc asylums, and to a communication from Mr. Leach, of Briton Ferry, with whom he thought it would be the most economical plan for this county to come to an arrangement. He considered that the statistical returns with which he had been furnished, spoke very strongly in favour of his asylum, and suggested that as soon as a committee could be appointed, it should be referred to them. Notice was then ordered to be given in the Silurian and Cardiff Guardian, in compliance with -lie act of the appointment of a committee at next sessions. 011 w ednerday the court proceeded with the trials of pri- soners—all being ordinary cases, possessing no features of peculiar interest.

dFijrrign Jntelltgntce. FRANCE.—The intelligence in the Paris papers relates ehiefly to the preliminary proceedings in the two Chambers, the report of Admiral Mackau, on the state of the navy, and the movements of Abd-el-Kader, who is as active and hostile as ever. The debate on tbe Address in the Peers was expected to commence on Friday, and that in the De- puties on Monday. The General Council of Commerce of Paris has adopted the following resolution, on the motion of M. T. Ducos.the Deputy of Bordeaux.*—"The Council recommends that authority be given for the introduction from foreign countries, free of all duty, of iron and sheet iron, destined for the construction of French commercial ships, whether of wood or iron, and whatever may be their destination or tonage." The Paris journals of Saturday are exclusively occupied with the debate upon the Address in the Chamber of Peers. So far as the debate had pro. ceeded, however interesting it may have been for the French public, it possesses no corresponding claim upon the attention of this country. The only matter touched upon thoughout the day's discussion was the modification of the government of the University, as proposed by the Minister of Public Instruction—a project condemned by many friends of the present Administration, and likely to involve the author in some difficulties even with the Con- servative party. We read in the COllstitutionnel :Wben, in 1810, the sum of 140,000,000f. was demanded for the fortifications of Paris, the opposers of the measure main- tained that the sum would be insufficient. The expense was estimated at the double, the triple, and some even said that it would cost a milliard. The work may be con- sidered as completed, and it is certain that the 140,000,000f. will not be exceeded. Nay, it was with this sum that the expenses of the fort of Aubervilliers, not comprised in the primitive plans, were defrayed; and, in addition, several millions have been used in barracks at Vincennes, and repairs at the Val-de-Grace. It is just to declare that the employment of the army has not been without result, for not only were the soldiers paid less than common workmen, but they prevented the general price of labour from moun- ting too high." The papers of Sunday contain several state papers relative to Texas, La Plata, and Morocco, which were laid upon the tables of both Chambers by the Ministers of Foreign Affairs on Saturday. M. Guizot's dispatches relative to Texas go to show that France was prepared to support Texas, in case that state was unwilling to allow itself to be absorbed into the United States. They also show that France views with great jealousy the en- croachments of the United States upon the side of Mexico, and, in fact, express indirectly that which M. Guizot so emphatically declared the other day, that France will no more permit a universal republic at the other side of the Atlantic than she would a universal monarchy in Europe. The dispatches relative to La Plata and Morocco reveal nothing beyond what is already known through the public journals relative to the dealings of France with these states. ALGERIA.—The Sloniteur Algerien of the 30th ult. informs us that no recent accounts had been received at Algiers of the movements of Marshal Bugeaud. It was only known through an^ indirect channel that he was, on the 22d, on the Oued-Riou, where the weather was so bad as to prevent operations, and cause great suffering to the army. Abd-el-Kader was said to have advanced into the west, and to have fixed his camp in the country south of the Flittas. His attempts against the Beni-Ouraghs had not been successful, and he had not ventured to enter their district. After the operations directed by Gen. Cavaignac in the mountains to the south of Tlemcen, all the Arab and Kabyle tribes of that sub-division are reported to have come to terms, and the same is said of the tribes in the districts where Gen. de Lamoriciere has been making razzias. Colonel de St. Arnaud was on the 25th at the south-east of Orleansville, for the purpose of watching the movements of Abd-el-Kader, and preventing him from entering the Dabra. Bou.Maza had made his re-appear- ance in that sub-division, but measures had been adopted to prevent his attacking the tribes who had recently made their peace with the French. Lieut. Colonel Caorobert, commandant of Tenez, had, on the 15th, fallen in with and defeated a body of insurgents. After this defeat the Beni- Hedjas sent their chiefs to Tenez to implore pardon. The column under the orders of Gen. Comman had been at- tacked on the Oued-Rouina by the Beni-Boudouans, but they were beaten off, and left thirty slain on the field of battle. Lieut. General Bedeau is stated to have received the entire submission of the Beni-Djaads. Ben-Salem and the Cherif Muley-Ibrahim, who had instigated them to revolt, had fled to the Jurjura. IMPORTANT FROM SOUTH AMERICA. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY AFTERNOON.—The following letter from Rio Janeiro, of the very late date of November 20, gives important views of the position of matteis in relation to the Brazils:—"Rio Janeiro, Nov. 20. Our political horizon is very much darkened since my last communica- tion. I understand this government will not continue fur- ther negociations until satisfaction is obtained respecting that most unfortunate bill lately passed, and which I fear will make mischief. The Brazilians complain, and with reason, that their coasting trade has suffered serious incon- venience by the policy and unjustifiable acts of some of our cruisers on this coast. The Brazilians also complain that if a couple of shackles were found in a coasting vessel, with all clearances in order, she was in consequence de- tained; and as they navigate their coasting vessels partly with slaves these were necessary to have on board; even as on board our vessels of war men are sometimes confined in irons. Again at the Cape, vessels taken there have been condemned for having those loose wooden boxes on board in which the captain and mate sleep, because one captain gave evidence in one case that these boxes were not in use in the coasting smacks. Now we all know well that many, if not all, coasting smacks use this kind of boxes. There is no doubt but that if our government would limit their Slave Bill to intercepting vessels with slaves, and not interfere with the legitimate goods trade between this and the coast, and which is as legal as the goods trade from Liverpool to the coast, the Brazilians would make some sort of a treaty with us, and if we do not curtail the working of the Slave Bill recently passed to intercepting slaves, we shall undoubtedly have a rumpus before long with this country, and it now behoves us all to use extreme caution in shipments. Yesterday and to-day a large business has been done in exchange at 26|, different length of credits according to the quality of the paper, from one to three weeks."

Pt RACY.—It is well known that Messrs. Rowland and Son have, by a series of labours and highly-successful experiments, succeeded in discovering and preparing for the Toiler, articles which have obtained a universal repu- tation all over the world. Some vile and unprincipled imitators, destitute alike of honour and talent, have concieved the nefarious idea of fabricating articles, so closely resembling in appearance those of Messrs. Row- land as to require a somewhat careful observation to detect the difference. The objects consist of pernicious and injurious compounds, which are offered to the public under the name of Macassar Oil for the Hair, or Kalydor for the Complexion articles which, as prepared by Messrs. Rowland, are universally preferred and esteemed. The only mode for the purchaser to avoid the imposition, and escape the baneful effects which the vile counterfeits will infallibly produce, is to inspect, with great care, the bottles and lables, and to ascertain that they bear the actual signature of Messrs. Rowlaud aud Sous.-N 0 others are genuine.
