TO PARENTS AND GUARDIANS. WANTED, a respectable and well-educated Youth, as in v T APPRENTICE to a CHEMIST and DRUGGIST, who would be treated in all respect* as one of the Famlly.- a,letters pre-paid, addressed to Z- Z., Mr. LODKR'S, Book. seUer, Newport, will be attended to. THE RHEUMATISM C$ut>sdJor e* HENRY'S MAGIC PILLS, for the Cara of th« Gout, Rheumatic Gout, Rheumatism, and all Rheumatic AAsetions. This mptt extraordinary tnedicitit, which I now offer to the public, is decidedly the most convenient, safe, and expedition remedy in the world for the Cure of the Gout, Rheumatic Gout, Rheumatism, and, indeed, for all Rheumatic Affections under the various name* of Face-ache, Tic-Doloreux, Sciatica, Luni- beco, kc. It contains neither Mercury, Antimony, nor any other noxious substance relieves a fit of the Gout or Rheumatism in an hour or two: gives soothing and relreshing sleep: and, in many cases, I have known patients walk well and easy in less than twenty.four hours. I have no doubt there are hundreds of cases where poor fa- milies have been deprived of many of the necessaries of life by this cruel disorder. It is true, there are seveial excellent re- medies for Gout and Rheumatism; but the prices the propri- stors have chosen to affix to each is (to the class of persons now under consideration) as complete a barrier to their use as if nothing of the sort was in existence.—It ts my intention, therefore, as it has pleased the divine will, that I should be placed in a situation above worldly want, to offer this Remedy at so low a price, as to meet the means of that class of my fellow cieatures who stand most in need of our attention. I have also laid aside a portion of my private fortune, for the purpose of bringing this medicine before the public and should I succeed in benefitting mankind, without any very largo call upon the inheritance of my family, I shall be amply paid by the satis- faction of having contributed in some degree to the comfort of class-much needing the sympathy of the wealthy and the h.ruaD8.

SIMCO'S CHEMICAL ESSENCE OF LINSEED, All Invaluable Remedy for Coughs, Colds, Hoarteneu, Asthma, Injlutnxa, and Incipient Consumption. Price Is. I id., 2s. 9d.. and 4s. 6d. per bottle. FROM time immemorial Linseed has been proverbial for F its virtues in the cure of Coughs and Colds. It is now offered in the form of the Chemicat Essence, which contarns a II the niedicinal properties of Linseed, combined with other po- pular and simple lemedies: thus producing a medicine 01 the most valuable nature. Coughs and Colds frequently lay the foundation of Consumption; but if timely application be had to this medicine, every dangerous symptom will disappear. Children's CGqh" as well as recent ones in adulla, will be removed by a few doses (frequently by the first); old standing, stubborn, irritating coughs (accompanied by difficulty of breath. ing. soreness and rawness of the chest, and affections of the lungs, where expectoration is impeded), may require perseve- rance but they ultimately yield to its *urajive powers. Asthmatic persons have been cured by this Essence, that prior to it* use had not been able to lie down in bed for twenty nights, on acceunt of impeded respiration. From a lady at Topsham, to Mr. Wheaton, Exeter. SIR,—I beg to acknowledge the receipt or Simco I Essence of Linseed, which you sent me last week (as you had not any left when I called at your shop Ju and I will thank you to send me now two large bottles, and two small ones, for a friend of mine, as the former bottle has done wonders for all who were fortunate enough to take a portion of it. You may conhdently recommend it, as myself and friends here, consider it the best congh medicine we ever heard of, and in future in1ten^.ne*e,r,,0 be without a bottle in the house. Yours truly, M. H.

CORNS. THE ANTI-CALLOSITY, or RUSSIAN CORN and BUNION PL A 1ST SR, will be found the most certain cure for all callous swellings on the feet that hasever been pre- sented to the Public. By the use of this Plaister immediate benefit will be found, and in a short time a radical cure will be effected, not by cutting (which is generally attended with dan- ger), but by gradually dispersing the hard or soft corn,and en- tirely removing those painful throbbings so severely felt at every change of weather.

UNITBD KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, WATERLOO PLACE, PALL MALL, and 8, CHARLOTTE ROW, MANSION HOUSE, LONDON. THIS Company, established by Act of Parliament, afford, the most perfect security, from ap ample capital, and only requires, when an insurance is for the whole period ot life, on« half of the very modeiate premiums to be paid for the first hi e diLW Of the policy im other tn. remain, subject to f i% payment of interest at nve per cent. annually, to be deducted at death, or may be previously paid off at con- venience. It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate in- come to secure, by this arrangement., a provision for hisfamih and should he at any time, after effecting the insurance, succsod to or acquire a fortune, he may relinquish his policy, having only paid one-half the premiums for the first five years, instead of the whole, as in all other Companies. Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of £ 28.16s. 3d., for the first five years, and afterwards the full premium, 1,51. 12s. 6d. yearly, secure to his widow and chil. drea at his death payment of no less than £ 3000., subject only to the deduction of £ 144. Is. 3d., being the amount of premium unpaid. This Company holds out in various other respects great ill- ducements to the public. When such facilities are afforded, it is clearly a moral duty ill every parent who is not possessed nf a fortune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure his life for a sum which may yield a comfortable provision for his family.

Now, then, IOTB, Is the time to call forth all you possess; for, in the trial whkh **aits us, you will require it all.

To give way to grief would render you unable to Perform your duty to those who would then doubly demand it. It "ould, too, (jive a triumph to our bitterest enemies. You may see our Oppressor* receive their reward. Believe me that great events are at "and. The system by w! ich our country has so long been oppressed, potters,' and a very little would tend to lay it in ruins. Many women your situation discovered extraordinary resolution in consoling their husbands, and by the fortitude evinced at their deaths. I hope my wife •ill not be wanting, should this fate await me. The time of trial, with J'ou and many others, must be a most anxious one. Guard, my dour, against any sudden shocks, whether favourable 01 otherwise I am Neatly apprehensive that you will be so eager to hear the result, that •serious consequences may follow. Try. to put on a little of the stoic "e prepared, and may the Supreme Disposer of Events give my dear 'te courage to hear, and fortitude to bear, whatever may be the result. I should, on no account, wish to see you, or any member of my family, at Monmouth. I hope, my dear, you will attend to my wishes in this Jjatter. If you knew how long the last look of you, and my belo* ,j<\ ^■•therine and Kllen, haunted me, you would not for a moment '^ipgi to comply with my wishes. There are various opinions in r^rcula- J'on as to the fate which will follow a conviction. In that jase sen of death must follow but whether it would be 'arried into effeer, is beyond the power of any one at present to foret A. There are ??r°nK reasons for moderation in the punishment of th «. prisoners and there arc reasons equally strong, which will operate with the authori- ses. for "xtreme measures. What may be the Result will depend en- tirely on the effort likely to be produced on the ^blic.—I have thought Hiueh, since I have been in prison, on the important of all sub- jects—the immortality of the soul-a state jf rewards and punishments, *ad I have derived much consolation /torn the consideration.

I trust that my daughters will bear this great trial with calm resignation. Fortitude and coolness are especially re- '<luired. With them regret will be unavailing. Let them look to the Supreme Being for support in this hour of affliction; and when it is all over, I hope that their minds will be able to bear the shock. Let them not be too ready to blame those who may condemn the conduct of Iheir father. My daughters, as is very natural, will look at my actions through too favourable a medium; but the world, uninfluenced by the same motives, judges, in general, by the result. With the bulk of man- kind, success is everything. I cannot, my dear Mary, say anything as tx> the course you ought to pursue, not being sufficiently acquainted with circumstances to justify me in forming an opinion but I should advise, If possible, and I hope to God it is, to retain your present habi- tation.

My Dear Wife,—Before you receive this my trial will be over which way it will terminate I have, at present, no chance of judging, but 1 should rather anticipate that it will terminate against me not that I am guilty of the charga. • • I was at length persuaded, by P.
