M > H E truly wonderful powers of this remedy hate X called forth testimonials from all ranks of society, in all quarters of the world. The following have just been received MORK CURES IN TREDEGAR. From Mr. J. P. Williams, Chemist, Chuich-street, Tredegar. Dec. 23, 1845. Gentlemen,— A number of my Friends have experienced great benefit through taking LOCOCK'S WAFERS. Please to send me one dozen boxes, by post, as some are waiting for them. One friend, named Amy Calamore (subject to Asthma) had a box last week, and has already received great benefit from them, although she did ndt take the whole, as she divi- ded the box among some of her neighbours. Every one speaks Highly of them, and thfy are taken by some of the first fami- lies in the town.—Yours obediently, J. P. WILLIAMS. ANOTHER IMPORTANT TESTIMONIAL. FrofJ. the Rev. Owen Thomas, Wesleyan Minister, Holyhead. October 9, lh45. Dear Sir,—Dr. Locock's Wafers do a great deal of good to tny voice. I got a bad cold from a damp bed about 35 years ago, and my voice was very bad ever since being great pain to me when preaching or singing—and I am very fund of sinking. 1 used many differe nt medicines, and some of them fio good for a little time, but Dr. Locock's is the best of -ill — it clears my voice and stops the coughing instantly. I have liever found any thing yet to compare with them. I have been 33 years a Wesleyan Preacher, and all the "Wesleyan Methodists in the Principality know me, (20 years of which I have lived in Holyhead), and I am known person- ally to all the first men of that body, many of whom have admirc-d the effects of the wafers in clearing the voice, and Slopping the cough; never got such a medicine befoie. My wife, ever since Christmas, has been very well, after taking two boxes. I am a witness of their power to stop a tiightful fit of coughing in an instant. I, as a Wesleyan Preacher, call upon all preachers and singers of every denomination to take these wafers, for im- proving the voice and curing coughs. Von may publish my testimonial for the excellent wafers, ií you wish.—1 am, yours truly, OW EN THOMAS, Wesleyen Minister. Another Cure of 20 Years' Asthma. Extract of a letter from M. Grose, Esq., liedruth. March 18. 1U45. Gentlemen,—Please to send me anils, box of Dr. Locock's 'Wafers bv return of post, and also a few of your lists of euros, that I may send them to those of my friends who are similarly afflicted with asthma. I thank God that I have found more benefit from three 2s. 9d. boxes which I have taken, than from all other medicines I ever took for the last 20 years, and I am in hopes that 1 shall soon he restored to mv former health. Signed, MICHAEL GKOSE. Pmearlable Case of Improvement of the Voice. From the celebrated Infant Thalia. Jan. IG, 1815. Sir,— I deem it to be one of our social duties to acknowledge the benefits we derive from the skill and labours of each other and I have now such a duty to perform towards you. My little girl, known as the Infant Thalia, suffered lately very severely from a cough, and relaxed Uvula, so much so, that she could not fulfil her professional duties. Varous remedies ■were tried without success, until a friend recommended your Pulmonic Wafers tin ir beneficial effect was instantly appa- rent, and a curespeedily effected. The continued use of them I find materially improves the tone and power of the voice. 1 could not let this veiy effectual cure pass over without iu- forming you of it, in the hope that you might make it known for the box fit of others similarly suffering. I shall be happy to answer any inquiries. 49, Great Queen-st., London. S. SMITH. The particulars of hundreds of cures may be had from every agent throughout the kingdom. Dr. Locock's Wafers give instant relief, and a rapid cure of asthmas, consumption, coughs, colds, and all disorders of the breath and lungs. To Singers and Public Speakers they are invaluable, as in a few hours they remove all hoarseness, and wonderfully in- crease the power and flexibility of the voice. They have a pleasant taste.

NPHIS faithful assistant of nature has, from intrinsic JL worth alone, duting the last half century, acquired the ESPECIAL PATRONAGE of the several SUVEREIGNS and COURTS throughout Europe, and with HANK, FASHION, and DlsCERNRIKNT, 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, and in all 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 l-fottleof 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 stagts 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 human life. Genial and purifying, it dispels all scurf and impurity, and renders the use of the fine comb unnecessary. BA LDNESS. Its re-productive powers are constantly and surprisingly shown in cases of Baldness from whatsoever cause arising (proved by numerous testimonials open for inspection Ilt 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, ROW- LAND'S MACASSAR OIL. has superseded the ornaments of art by re-instating in full plentimde 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. WfllSKEUS AND MOUSTACHIOS. 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 the beauties of decorative formation, glossy cur), and silky softness, unimpaired by the heated atmosphere of crowded rooms, or damp weather. 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. 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! 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:" some under the implied sanction of lioyalty. It is therefore imperative on Purchasers to see that tne words ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL are in two lines on the Wrapper of each bottle, and on the inside of the Wrap- per nearly 1,500 times, containing 29,028 letters.

THE BEST APERIENT AND ANTIBILIOUS MEDICINE FOR GENERAL USE IS FRAMP- TON'S PILL OF HEALTH, which effectnally relieves the stomach and bowels by gentle relaxation, without griping or prostration of strength. They remove head-ache, sickness, dizziness, pains in the chest, &c., are highly grateful to the stomach, promote digestion, create appetite, relieve langour and depression of spirits; while to those of a full habit and free livers, who are continually suffering from drowsiness, heaviness, and singing in the head and ears, they offer ad vantages that will not fail to be appreciated. This medicine has for many years received the approval of the most respectable classes of society, and in confirmation of its efficacy, the following letter has been kindly forwarded to Mr. Front, with permission to publish ii, and, if requisite, to refer any respectable person to its anthor:- Heavitree, Exeter, April 24, 1841. To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand, London Sir.-I feel pleasure in being able to bear my strong and unsolicited testimony to the excellence of your Frampton's Pill of Health,' which I consider a most safe, efficacious, and very superior general medicine. The widow of an officer, an elderly lady, and near relative of mine, has used them-very rarely having recourse to other medicine for a long period of years; she has recommended them extensively, and in one instance in which she induced a person to adopt them, and supplied the first box herself, they have proved of extraordi- nary efficacy. I think that perhaps there is scarcely any other of the many patent medicines before the public of equal value as a 'friend in need,'—certainly none possessed of superior claims. I shall bs happy 011 all occasions to give them my individual recommendation, and am, Sir, Your obedient servant, • *_>» Sold by T.

^Foreign fcntrUtgeitrr. FRANCE.—The Paris journals of Thursday, being engaged in discussing the French University question before the Chamber, offer little interest to the English reader. The Debats and the opposition papers concur in blaming M. de Salvandy's proceedings; whose speech, however, in their defence, delivered in the Chamber on the preceding day, is regarded as very able,-Sir R. Peel's statement of Tuesday evening week, announcing sweeping reductions upon various articles of French production and manufacture, had created an extraordinary sensation in Paris. A private letter states that the good people of Paris canuot be brought to credit the news, and ask, sup- posing such to be the English minister's intentions, if Parliament will ratify them?" The local journals of Fri- day morning will be looked for with much avidity and, adds our correspondent, the sensation at this side is greater than that, perhaps, produced for many years by any state- ment of the French Government itself. Later accounts from Paris say—The reception of Sir R. Peel's free-trade speech in Paris has not been such as to justify the hope, if any such was entertained, of a relaxation of the French tariff in favour of British manufacture. The English Premier is certainly complimented in polished yet vague sentences upon his liberality, &c., but not one journal has had the boldness to hold him up as a model to French statesmen. The Presse, with a frankness which we can- not but admire, protests against the supposition that any continental country will allow itself to be betrayed into the adoption of illusory free-trade principles. Whatever course Sir Robert Peel may choose to follow, observes that journal, other nations will consult their own interest. The Siecle, it is true, ventures to suggest the wisdom of a more liberal commercial policy on the part of France, but we apprehend the writer does not speak the sentiments of a party, his language being timid and not sustained by argument or illustration. Indeed the faintness of the exception proves the inflexibility of the rule in favour of restriction.—The Paris papers of Saturday bring a very remarkable speech made by M. Guizot on Friday, in the Chamber of Deputies, in defence of M. Salvandy's pro- posed reform of the French university. Notwithstanding the pressing importance of other subjects of so much greater interest at this moment, it is impossible to overlook a speech which the journals in the interest of M. Thiers, to whom, by the way, M. Guizot spoke in reply, regard as an avowal of a system of reaction against the principles of the revo- lution of 1830. M. Guizot, with his usual boldness, and with an elevation of language to which even his adversa- ries do justice, proclaimed that the University was not in harmony with the spirit of the time that the interests of religion were not sufficiently provided for, nor the rights of parents respected, according to the present constitution of that corporation. In fact, M. Guizot would reconcile liberty of education, as demanded by the clergy and fathers of families, with the admirable machinery afforded by the French University for general instruction. Having pro- mulgated these lofty principles, M. Guiaot acknowledged that he looked to the negociations so favourably opened with Rome for the solution of many difficulties hanging round this vexed question of the University and the clergy. He declared that he preferred seeing questions of policy resolved even slowly and with difficulty, through moral influence, laboriously and patiently brought to bear upon them, than by rude and abrupt means, however vigorous they might look in the eyes of the shallow and inconside- rate. Proceeding on this view, he did not hesitate to avow that instead of enforcing the laws against Jesuits and other monastical bodies, he preferred to see the desired object arrived at through mediation with the Court of Rome. The partisans of M. Thiers are furious. They say that M. Guizot has surrendered the University, Vol- taire philosophy, and free-trade" in all kinds of prin- ciples, from Atheism to Socialism, to the Pope and the Jesuits. The cry is, that the cause of the revolution is in danger—that France is marching back to absolute govern- ment and Jesuitical rule-that they are about to bring back the days of Louis XIV. and Father Letellier. The Journal du Loriet states that the viaduct of the Vierzon line at Orleans appears destined to the same fate as that of Barentin. One arch, it says, has given way, and others are cracked. A newly-invented musket-ball has been tried at Vin- cennes, and produced effects similar to those of the cylindro-eonical ball. This new missile consists of the ball having a nail run through its centre, and is put into the musket with the point towards the muzzle. This is said to make it carry further, and with greater precision. -Galiynani. It may be remembered that some time back, at Brest, a Captain of Infantry having discovered a Lieutenant of the Navy committing adultery with his wife, mutilated him so dreadfully that he died soon after. The mother of the victim lately brought an action against the Captain for the loss of her son, and the Civil Tribunal of Brest has just sentenced him to 8,000 francs damages.— Galignani. The Constitutionnel states that the cases of premature interment, prevented by fortuitous circumstances, amount in France, since the year 1833, to ninety-four. Of those, thirty-five persons awoke of themselves from the lethargy at the moment the funeral ceremony was about to com- mence; thirteen recovered in consequence of the affec- tionate care of their families; seven in consequence of the fall of the coffins in which they were enclosed; nine owed their recovery to wounds inflicted by the needle in sewing their winding-sheet; five to the sensation of suffo- cation they experienced in their coffin nineteen to their interment having been delayed by fortuitous circum- stances and six to their interment having been delayed in consequence of doubts having been entertained of their death. The Presse relates an affecting account of an extraor- dinary reverse of fortune. It states, that three days ago, an eminent artist, whose name it does not give, was ac- costed in the Rue de l'Observatoire by a woman in rags, who told him that she was the person who, in the time of the Empire, introduced him to the Empress Josephine. When convinced of the truth of what she said, he asked her to account for her present melancholy condition. She informed him that she had married a General, who was a very worthy man, but he had ruined himself by specu- lation after his death, she for a time gained her bread by labour; but becoming old and infirm, she fell into a destitute condition. She applied for admission into a hospital, but was refused on the ground of having an in- curable malady. The artist took compassion on the poor old lady, and placed her in a hotel, where he desired that every comfort might be provided for her at his expense. This sudden change, says the Presse, has affected her brain, and she has been removed by her humane protector to a maison de sante. The Duke of Modena died on the 21st instant, in his sixty-seventh year. He is succeeded by his son, Francis V.; who was born in June, 1810. In return for presents from the Emperor of Russia to the Pope, his Holiness has conferred upon Russia the relics of St. Nicholas the Greater, who is the patron of that nation. A ship of war has been despatched from Odessa to receive the relics, and convey them in great pomp to St. Petersburg. Letters from Berlin state that the Customs Union is contemplating an important reform. It is to transform German Consuls into Consuls of the Zollverein. The result of this will be to consolidate the union, to insti- tute a wiser division of consular agencies, and to suppress a crowd of useless posts. A printer of Wurtzburg has been arrested for having printed an almanack in 1842, in which the name of the Bishop of Wurtzburg is placed before that of the King and Royal Family of Bavaria.

A STRANGE STORY.-Mr. H. Moody, of Winchester, relates the following story connected with the Winchester county gaol: -About the middle of the last century, a man who bad the care of some horses in Winchester, took one of them, according to the custom of the day, to water at the Town Pond, situated at the northern end of the Upper Brooks, which has not been many years enclosed. There he met with another man who had brought some cows to water. A dispute ensued between them, and, in the beat of excitement, the former had recourse to a prong which he had brought with him, stabbed his antagonist in the face, and killed him. For this offence he was committed, tried, found guilty of wilful murder, and sentenced to be executed. There might have been some mitigatory cir- cumstances in the case which at this period would probably have reduced the crime to manslaughter, and even in those days, when the laws were prodigal of life, obtained for him a respite bevond the twenty-four hours allotted to a mur- derer.-He was sent back to prison, whilst it may be sup- posed the case was to be submitted to the twelve judges; but days, months, and years rolled away without receiving either a pardon, reprieve, or order for execution. It was generally believed that the offence was passed over and forgotten, and nothing more would be heard of it. The governor also was of the same opinion, and, as be had long known the unhappy man, employed him first to wait upon the debtors, then to go on errands into the town, and at length he gave him the charge of his horse. The man's conduct was orderly, he did not once attempt to escape, and he was every night locked In his cell, like any other prisoner. One day be was sent with the governor's horse to Crawley, a distance of five miles, aud upon his return he was immediately ordered into prison, where his almost broken-hearted master "nd keeper communicated to him the fatal intelligence that the warrant from the office of the secretary of state had arrived, commanding his immediate execution, which actually took place on the following day. It appears that after the sentence of the judge had been confirmed, and the warrant duly signed, it was misplaced with other papers in the secretary ot state's office, and was t only brought to light by a change in the occupant, who, finding it filled up, at once forwarded it to the sheriff of the county.

Everybody is asking his neighbour this question- 41 Will Sir Robert Peel carry his commercial revolution measure 1" And the prevalent opinion seems to be that he will. The people fear it rather than desire it. Pro- bably the measure may pass the House of Commons. But beyond all is dark to our ken. The Lower House is the Rubicon of things certain. The government whippers-in estimate that Sir Robert Peel will have a majority of from 50 to 80 against Protection. They reckon the whole of the Whig-radical and Romanist members, Lord John Russell, O'Connell, Hume, Dun- combe, Roebuck, and also about 120 Conservatives as his supporters. They give Mr. Kayley and about 30 of the old Whig party to the Conservative opposition. Thus the constitution of the House is divided into Free-traders, 368, Protectionists, 290. But we fully believe that the government-men have left much too large a balance in their own favour. The numbers were counted before the measure was hatched. No allowance has been made for the pressure which the agricultural constituencies are now putting on their representatives-calling on them to vote point blank against Sir Robert Peel, as a deserter to the enemy, or to resign their seats, and this they declare is the only step consistent with public honour." Such is the truth and, therefore, the reminder of it will fix many a waverer, and unseat some of the adventurous. Still, as we have already said, we believe the measure may pass the House of Commons. But it will be by a small ma- jority—by one certainly too powerless to force it through the House of Lords. Will the country again have occa- sion to cry, "Thank God we have a House of Lords'?'' We believe it will-we believe that the Peers will reject Sir Robert Peel's measure. Not a resignation, but a dissolution will ensue, for Sir Robert Peel, animated by the enthusiasm of a convert, is bent on inundating Great Britain with Free-trade. The right hon. bart. has in- formed the country that his first measure was the opening of the ports and a dissolution. Protectionist opposition is therefore urged on because it will simply compel him to revert to his original proposition. The question of Free-trade will then be submitted to the arbitrement of a larger, fairer, and less biassed tribunal than the House of Commons—to the people. This, we believe, is, to use the most expressive term, the honest mode of settling it. If the constituencies decide in favour of the measure, then it must be carried and Sir Robert Peel and his colleagues, of all others, are the men whom we would select to operate a change of system, so vast in compre- hension, and perilous in consequences. But if the country should decide against it, as we believe it will-for the measure is one affecting not one protected interest, but all protected interests-then Sir Robert Peel and the band of faithful faithless Conservatives who still cling to him, will resume the even tenor of their way, or, as is more probable, give place to men thrown up by the crisis and animated by the proved feeling of the country.-Gloreces- tershire Chronicle. COPARTNERSHIP IN LITTLE WARS. The great Governments of Christendom—America perhaps exepted comport themselves with laudable amity towards each other. France will n0( war with England, nor England with France. But the fighting passion is strong both in France and England, and finds vent "under the rose." The two great nations sin as it were in secret. France wages small wars on her own account—'Ont of Europe—in Algiers and Tahiti England jn New Zealand. And, like old rones whose sense of shame i* so dull that they frequent places of bad reputation together, France and England carry on clandestine wars in partnership, in Madagascar and on La Plata—to say nothing of their joint blockade of West Africa. The Queen of the Hovas, no doubt, has evinced that noble disdain of the rights of civilized nations which some sentimentalists so much admire. Rosas—though the partisan narratives of his administration, which the Furopean press has lent itself to circulate, are little better than romances founded on fact"-is an energumene of the Revolutionary school. The copartnership into which the powerful Governments of France and England have entered to fight weak ones may have acted selon regie in these two instances; but this warlike alliance does, it must be confessed, somewhat resemble an alliance between two big bullies in a school to thrash all the little boys. If France and England are to be self-appointed police magistrates and constables in one, over the petty republics of South America and the pettier monarchies of barbarous people, the two worshipful authorities are likely to have it all their own way, France and England have bombarded the defences of Rosas: admitting that the Dictator of La Plata was in the wrong, would he have been better off if it had chanced that he was in the right? All the petty states of which Itome made itself in succession the arbiter, protector, and tyrant, had not so conducted themselves as to deserve to lose their national independence. And the modern Kings of Brentford, smelling at one rose of war, are no more infallible than the despot of the Capitol. A com- bination between France and Englaud to drub all the little states into conformity with the policy of these powers, may be productive of inconceivable injustice and violation of state rights. Besides, though it sounds quite touching and romantic to hear of the ardour with which Frenchmen and Englishmen combat side by side, and the chivalrous generosity with which the soldiers of one nation extol the gallant exploits performed by those of another, this maintenance of large fleets and armies by both countries—this keeping of them in permanent training by exercising them on South American Republicans and Madagascar Blacks-is but indifferent preparation for peace. The gallant soldiers of France and England feel that they are opposed to adversaries not a match for them, and may yearn for more worthy antagonists. When both French and English fight well in concert, it is not easy to decide which are the better men; and they may some day take it inio their heads to settle the doubt by a stand-up fight between themselves. It is well that the ruling states have become so far ashamed of war as to seek its indulgence in remote and obscure resorts; but so long as a sanctimonious exterior is thought sufficient apology for illicit indulgence, the secretly fostered passions may at any time assume open mastery.- Spectator.

THE HORSE.-Shaving is a still easier process than clipping, Ttnd we wonder it is not more generally adopted. Any man who can shave himself can shave a horse; and shaving is attended with far less fatigue to the hand than clipping. The veriest beginner can shave a horse a day, the groom, village barber, sexton, anybody. It requires nothing but half a dozen razors, hot water and common soap, well lathered into the part you are at to work upon. There should be a man or boy to hold the horse, one to shave, and a third to keep setting the razors, as it makes awkward work when the shaver has to stop every now and then, dry his hands and commence whetting. It is a more efficacious process than clipping, and gets rid of much of the singeing and smell-making that concludes that operation. The only difference in point of convenience is, that you cannot well ride a shaved horse without clothing for a week or so after the operation, whereas a clipped one will come out the day after; indeed we once saw a horse out with the noun s in Kent; the fore quarters of which were ,aa shabby, and the hind ones smooth and clipped, oo ing very like a French poodle, a likeness that was increased by the monkeyfied appearance of the man upon it. As to the risk attending either clipping or shaving we con- fess we never saw or heard of any ill effects arising from either, though, as we said before, we have seen and felt very great advantages#—Belfs Life.

NAVIGATION. -To the inhabitants of a sea-girt isle," like unto Great Britain, and indeed to every other mara- time nation, every instance of valour or skill evinced by those devoted to navigation is justly and honourably esteemed. The deed of Grace Darling was one of hero- ism and benevolence; and recently the affair of the schooner Whim," which had been navigated four thou. sand miles by Captain Kerridge and only one man, all the hands on board having died, with the exception of one other, who was incapacitated. No such other in- stance of naval skill and indefatigable exertion is known in the records of naval history; from their continued ex- posure to the atmosphere, they were in hourly danger of an attack of Rheumatism, which, had it occurred, their fate, and that of the ship and cargo would have been sealed. To guard against such a calamity, we would recommend that all persons should be provided with Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, which may be taken at any time without restraint of employment. Loss OF TEETH.—In consequence of the complete or even partial ruin of the teeth, the face shrinks. The countenance assumes a different expression, and wrinkles will prematurely furrow the face. The only remedy for this is to supply the loss with Artificial Teeth, thereby restoring clear articulation, perfect mastication, and pre- venting the hollow and shrunken cheeks, the thin and contracted lip, so characteristic of old age. The new Incorrodible Teeth introduced by Messrs. HOWARD and THOMAS, urgeon-Dentists, 64, Berners-street, Oxford- stree onaon, most fully answer this purpose, and are x.e w,t"°ut extracting any roots or teeth, or giving any pain whatever. They will also be found much more economical than any others. In virtues nothing earthly could surpass her, Save thine incomparable Oil' Macassar DON JUAN, Canto 1. I A. splendid testimony, this, of Lord Byron's high sense of the merits of Rowland's Macassar Oil. His Lordship was at great pains to preserve his fine head of hair by the daily application of this Oil, and recommended it to all who had the honour of his acquaintance.
