THE ASAM TEA COMPT., LONDON, PURVEYORS OF THE CELEBRATED ASAM TEV TO HER MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY THE QUEEN. THE ASAM TEA COMPANY, on a review of the encouraging advances which their speculations have pro- J_ gressively made, are prompted to tender their warmest acknowledgments to their increased, and still increasing supporters, in all parts of the United Kingdom. Difficult as it undoubtedly is, on starting a new project, to remove a deeply rooted prejudice, the Company have marked with extreme satisfaction the growing approval which the public have spontaneously evinced with reference to the peculiar leaf imported from Asam. The gratifying fact of the Asam Tea Company having been honoured with a Royal Appointment, as PURVEYORS TO THE QUEEN, a sufficient proof of the high estimation in which the Asam Tea is held among the exalted circles of society. The seciet of the astonishing success which attends the Company's speculations, is found in the fact, that the intrinsically excellent quality of the Asam Tea, is such as infinitely surpasses that of China; which, in a short period will, without doubt, be altogether supplanted. The peculiar recommendations of the Asam leaf, are attested by the rigid scrutiny and close analysis to which this newly-discovered species of Tea has been subjected, by chymical and medical practitioners. The flavour of the leaf is agreeably piquant and aromatic, and its infusion in cases of thirst, is cool and penetratings As a stomachic beverage, it is perfectly wholesome and refreshing, and its dilutory properties on the digestive organ. render it an invaluable stimulant to appetite. The Asam leaf has been pronounced by medical authority as 41 AN INFALLIBLE RESTORATIVE IN ALL NERVOUS AFFECTIONS;" and on this account the Company are daily gaining ground with the inhabitants and invalid visitors of the various watering places on the coast, who have been effectually restored, in disorders of nervous weakness and irritation, by the renovating influence of the Asam Tea. As an "ECONOMICAL AND FAMILY ARTICLE," the Company's Tea is unequalled ;—possessing, as it does, a strength of virtue which causes one pound of the Asam leaf to yield more than double the amount of the Tea imported from China. With these incontrovertible facts, the Company trust that the public will still favour them with their support, with the assurance that, at the same time, they will be equally favouring themselves.

FREE PASSAGES to New South Wales, South Australia, and the Cape of Good Hope, are granted by her Majesty's Colonial Land and Emigration Com- missioners, in first-class ships, sailing at short intervals in succession during the year, from London and Ply- mouth, to a limited number of persons, strictly of the working classes. The emigrants most in request are agricultural labourers, shepherds, and female domestic servants, and dairymaids. A few country mechanics, such as blacksmiths, wheelwrights, carpenters, &c., are taken for each ship.—Undoubted testimonials, both as to :haracter and ability in calling and occupation, are indis- pensable. At the date of the last advices, the demand for labour in these colonies was urgent, and the rate of wages consi- I lerably higher than in England. On the other hand, ( provisions were at a much lower rate. Clothing was 4 ibout the same price as in this country. On arrival in the colonies, the emigrants are received by an officer of government, who will give them inform- ition as to where they may obtain work and they are it peifect liberty to engage themselves to any one will- ing to employ them, and to make their own bargain for wages. No repayments is required of any part of the expense of their passage out. For further information apply to Mr. J. WINCHCOMBE, Ferry-side, Swansea; C. BRICKM.VN, Esq., Weston- super-Mare.

HARRISSON's PILLS, for the certain destruction IjL of RATS and MICE, totally devoid of danger to human life; prepared by GBO. H. WOOLLEY, Chemist &c., Maidstone. Wholesale Depot, 159, Aldersgate-street London. This remarkable and truly wonderful invention, which has acqtuied unprecedented celebrity, attributable chiefly to its certain success, will supply a desideratum which has long been felt and acknowledged. Several of the preparations now advertised for destruction of vermin are generally found to produce the dnsired effect, so far, at least, as the destruction of vermin is concerned; but, containing arsenic, as they do, their use is attended vALli risk and danger. Harrisson's Pills, on the contrary, contain no arsenic whatever, are per- fectly neutral and harmless to dogs and cats, and while they aie the only invention that can lay claim to the overwhelm- ing recommendation of being wholly devoid of any danger whatever to human life, the following testimonial, selected from an immense number, iSllllbmiued with confidence — Petworth, Sussex, 1st June, 1847. Colonel Wyndham has used Harrisson's Pills with great success for mice, on his estates at Petworth, and wishes for a further supply immediately. Harrisson's Pills for rats and mice have been used at Park- farm, Arundel-castle, Sussex, by direction of the Duke of Norfolk. with the happiest results; two entire barns having been thoroughly cleared of this destructive vermin. Harrisson's Rat-destroying Pills have been used by Mr. Yates, steward to Prince Albert, with very great succcss, on the Norfolk farms, Windsor.park. They have been also tried on board the ship Blundell, now ying in the Western Basin. London-docks. This vessel was swarming with rats, so much so that they came and eat the Pills in the middle of the day, and in presence of several respectable people she was cleared in three days. Sold in neat Tin Boxes, with full printed directions for use, at 6d., Is., and 5s. each, by all Chemists and respectable Medicine Vendors in England, Scotland, and Ireland.

It contains an elaborate and carefully-written account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Organs in Man which are directly and indirectly concerned in the func- tion of generation (illustrated by coloured engravings), and the Causes and Consequences resulting from the baneful practice by which the vigour and manliness of Life are enerv- ated and destroyed, even before nature has fully established the powers and stamina of the constitution. Local and gene- ral debility, nervous irritability and excitement, consumption, indigestion of the most fearful and exhausting kind. intense melancholy and depression of the spirits, and partial or com- plete extinction of the re-productive powers, &c., are thus produced. In the SILENT FRIEND, the chapter devoted to the consideration of these dreadful complaints contains also an account of the means by which they may be prevented and removed, so as to restore the sufferer to the full enjoyment of health and the functions of manhood. The consequences resulting from venereal contamination are next pointed out, and the nature and chaiacter of Gonor- rhoea, Gleet, Stricture, and Secondary Symptoms of every. kind, are clearly explained, with directions for cure. Their dangerous effects on the human economy are sufficiently dila- ted on, and a means is also indicated by which the recurrence of these diseases may in every instance be completely prevented. The work terminates with a chapter on the obligations of mar riage, the physical impediments which tend to disqualify the candidate tor that holy state, and the directions necessary for their removal. The work is illustrated by the detail of cases, and by 26 coloured engravings on steel, thus rendering it what its name purports it to be, the true but silent friend to all suffering from the consequences of early error and vice.-a work which may be consulted without exposure, and with every assurance of complete success and benefit.

PART THE FIRST of this work is dedicated to the consi- deration of the Anatomy and Physiology of the generative functions. It embraces a succinct account oi all the organs in man which are engaged in the important function of the re- production of the species, and the mode in which self-abuse operates to the injury of the human frame, and the destruc- tion of the special and vital powers. This is illustrated by six coloured engravings. PART THE SECOND treats of the infirmities and decay of the system produced by over indulgence of the passions. The existence of nervous and sexual debility and incapacit with their accompanying train of symptoms and disorders, are treated by the chain of connecting results to this cause. This section is illustrated by three coloured engravings, which fully display the effects of physical decay. PART THE THIRO contains an accurate dnscription of the diseases caused by infection, an* by the abuse of mercury; primary and secondary symptoms, eruptions of the skin, sore throat, iuftammation of the eyes, disease of the bones,gonor- rhoea, gleet, stricture, &c., are shown to depend on this cause. Advice for the treatment of all these diseases and their con- sequences is tendered in this section, which if duly followed up, cannot fail in effecting a cure. The Pait is illustrated by seventeen coloured engravings. PART THE FOURTH.—Treats of the Prevention of Disease by a simple application, by which the danger of infection is obviated. Its action is simple but sure. It acts with the eirut chemically, and dettroys its power ou the system. This important part of the Work should be read by every Young Man entering into life. PART THE FIFTH treats of Marriage, its obligations and disqualiifcations. The causes which lead to happiness in the marriage state are dwelt upon, and those which are indi- cative of misery and domestic inquietude. The nature, ori- gin, and treatment of physical disqualiifcations are also described, and remedies for this state form an important con- aideration in this section of the work. The diffidence and distrust which are among the natural consequences of these affections, frequently prevent persons from applying for assistance until great, although not perhaps irremediable mischief has been inflicted on the constitution and powers of life. it is to be hoped that the perusal of this work will teach such persons the injurious consequeuces of delay, and lead them at once to seek that advice and counsel, by which alone they can be saved from the horrors of an existence protracted amidst long enduring wretchedness, both of mind and body.
