THE CORDIAL BALM OF ZETLANICA. Or, Nature's Grand Restorativs. Is exclusively directed to the cure of nervous sexual debility syphilis, obstinate gleets, irregularity, weakness, impotency, barienness, loss of appetite, indigestion, consumptive habits, and dehilities arising from venereal excesses, &c. It is a most powerful and useful medicine in all pases of syphilis, constitu- tional weakness, or any of the previous symptoms which indi. cate approaching dissolution, such as depression of the spirits, fits, headache, wanderings at the mind, vapours and melancholy, trembling or shaking ol the hands or limbs, disordered nerves, obstinate coughs, shortness of breath, and inward wastings. The fine softening qualities of this Cordial Balm of Zeylanica is p«- cutiarly adapted to remove such symptoms, and gradully restore the complete system to a healthy state—even where Sterility seems to have fastened on the female constitution, this medicine will warm and purify the blood and fluid, invigorate the body, and remove every impediment. This medicine should be taken previous to persons entering into the Matrimonial State, to prevent the offspring suffering from the past imprudence of its parents, or inheriting any seeds of disease, which is too frequently the case. Sold in bottles, price 4s. 6'd.and lis. each, or the quantity of four in one family bottle for 33s., by which one lis. bottle is saved. The £5. cases (the purchasing of which will be a saving of one pound twelve shillings) may be had as usual, at 27, Mon- tague-street, Russell Square, London. Patients in the country who require a course of this admirable medicine, should send five pounds by letter, which will entitle them to the full benefit of such advantage. Brodie's Purifying Vegetable Pills Are universally acknowleged to be the best and surest remedy for the cure of the Venereal Disease in both sexes, including Gonnorrlicea, Gleets, Secondary Symptoms, Strictures, Seminal Weakness, Deficiency, and all diseases of the Urinary Passages, without loss of time, confinement, or hindrance from business. Thousands fall victims to this horrid disease, and by unskilful) ness, the use of that deadly poison mercury, ruin the constitution, and cause ulcerations, blotches on the head, face, and body, dimnessof sight, noise in the ears, deafness, obstinate gleetf nodes on the shin bones, ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal pains in the head and limbs, till at length a general debility and decay of the constitution ensues, and a melanchoij death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings. These pIli., which do not contain mercury have never been known to fail in effecting a cure, not only in recent, but in severe cases, where salivation and other treatment has been inefficient; a perseve- rance in the Purifying Vegetable Pills, in which Messrs. Brodie have happily compressed the most purifying and healing virtues of the vegetable system, and which is of the utmost importance to those afflicted with Scorbutic affections, Eruptions on any part of the body, Ulcerations, Scrofulous or Venereal Taint, will cleanse the blood from all foulness, counteract every morbid af- feet ion, and restore weak and emaciated Constitutions to pristine health and vigour.

GRAND PICTURE EXHIBITIONS OF THE PRINCIPAL CITIES OF EUROPE. ANNOUNCEMENT. THE Proprietors of the Illustrated London A«wi are again enabled to make one of those joyous announcements to their readers, which are ever sources of pleasure, in the propor- tion in which their fulfilment tends to the profit and enjoyment of the public. The perfect honesty of principle and purpose with which the above journal has continued its career, has maintained for it the undeviating confidence of those who placed reliance upon its early promise, and have had no reason to regret their trust. This is the boast of the prnptietors; and it will be seen that they uphold their right to it. It was in this spirit that-destined little to profit, but much to please—they prepared those magnificent commemorations of their early patronage, and afterwards confirmed prosperity— the Grand View of London—and superb Panorama of the Thames—presented, at fitting intervals, to the readers of this journal. It is in the same spirit that Now-towards the close ofits seventh volume, and another year—with foot firm in the stirrup—grati- tude inspiring, and confidence insured—the Proprietors announce their intention to present their readers with noble presents, in appropriate form, and with the best genius and illustration that modern art can afford, and without a thought of expense, MAGNIFICENT PICtURES OF TIIE PRINCIPAL CITIES OF EUROPE. It is not more the proprietor);' determination that their production shall surprise all who receive them, than that the faithful illus- trations themselves shall become so many records and monu- ments of what the good will and hearty friendship of the pub- lic enabled the first illustrated newspaper in the nineteenth century to achieve. Edinburgh and Dublin put forth their sister claims wi'h London and the Illustrated London News may well aspire to reflect, on a giand scale, the chiefest cities of Europe, when not Europe, nor any territory short of the whole known world, is able to affix a limit to its circulation. The minute details of the plan, in presenting these magnificent pictures to subscribers, will be immediately placed at then dis- posal. For the present, the proprietors are glad to believe that there is not one of them who will not feel confidence and pleasure in its plain announcement. The number of the journal, with the presentation print, price 6d. No extra charge will be made. The first print, a View of the City of Dublin, will be presented early in the new year. The new year, it is confidently expected, will considerably increase the already large circulation of the Illustrated London News, which has already reached sixty thousand copies weekly and the subscribers may rest assured no exertion or expense will be spared to add to the attractions of this journal.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. We regard the work before us, I The Silent Friend,' as a work em- bracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the niedisal pro- fession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must, however, confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially wish, every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffering from indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained in its and Argus* "The authors of The Silent Friend' seem to be thoroughly conver- sant with the treatment of a class of eomplaints which are we fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in which this b«ok is written and the valuable hints it conveys to those who are apprehen- sive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to recommend it to a careful perusal."—Era- This work should be read by ail who value health and wish to enjoy ife, for the truisms therein contained defy all doubt,Farm' Journal. THfeS COUDIAL BAL. or STTHXACUM Is intended to relieve those persons, who, by an immoderate indulgence of their passions, have ruined thei r constitutions, or in their way to the consummation of thatdeplorable state, are af- fected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its ap- proach. as the various affections of the nervous system, obsti- nate gleets, excesses, irregularity, obstructions of certain evacua- tions, weakness, total impotency, barrenness, &.c. This medioine is particularly recommended to be taken be- fore persons enter into the Matrimonial State, lest in the event of procreation occurring, the innoeent offspring should bear en- stamped upon it the physical chaiacters derivable from parental debility.

The Concentrated Detersive Essence An Anti-Syphiltic Remedy for searching out and purifying the diseased humours of the blood, and certain cure for scurvy, scrofula, and all cutaneous eruptions, conveying its active prin- ciples throughout the body, even penetrating the minutest vessels, removing all eruptions, contaminations, and impurities, from the vital stream,—eradicating the morbid virus; and radically ex- pelling it through the skin. Price lis., or four bottles in one for 33s., by which lis. is saoved, also in £5 cases, which saves £ 12s. Venereal Contamination, if not at first eradicated, will often remain secretly lurking in the system for years, and, although for a while undiscovered, at length break out upon the unhappy individual in its rnosr dreadful forms; orelse, unseen, internally endanger the very vital organs of existence. To those suffering from the consequences which this disease may have left behind in the form of Secondary Symptoms, Eruptions of the Skin, blotches on the head and face, ulcerations and enlargement of the throat, tonsils, and threatened destruction of the nose, palate, &c., nodes on the shin bones, or any of those painful affections arising from the dangerous effects of the indiscriminate use of mercury, or the evils of an imperfect cure, the Concentrated De- tersive Essence will be found to be attended with the most as- tonishing effects, in checking the ravages of the disorder remov- ing all Scorbutic Complaints, and effectually re-establishing the health of the constitution. To peisons entering upon the lespon- sibilities of matiimony, and who ever had the misfortune during their more youthful days to be affected with any form of these diseases, a previous course of medicine is highly eboential, and of the greatest importance, as more serious affections are visited upon the innocent wife and offspring, from a want of these simple precautions, than perhaps half the world is aware of; for it must be remembered, where the fountain is polluted he streams that flow from it cannot be pure."

ATTESTING THAT THERE IS HEALTH FOR ALL XXOXsX.OWAVS FILM. THE following case of DROPSY can scarcely be called a cure, being so wonderful and extraordinary as to be little short of a miracle Mr. John Robinson, an opulent farmer at Grazie, residing in Wootton. in Bedfordshire, was lately reduced to the apparent extremities of death, being at the time so bloated with water as to be increased in size to double his usual bigness indeed, his legs had become so large around, that they actually burst is three places. In this most alarming and dangerous state, he medical man informed him that he could not possibly lire more than two days longer!" Mr. Robinson,upon hearingthis, instantly dismissed his doctor, and had recourse alone to the wonderful efficacy of Holloway's Pills, which not only saved his life, but likewise effectually expelled the water trorn the system and restored him iu a short space of time, by a steady perseve- rance in the use of the pills, to as sound and as perfect a state of health as ever he enjoyed. N. B.- M r. Robinson, whose life has just been saved by these Pills, is well known to most persons, not only throughout Bed- fordshire, but also in the surrounding counties. AN ASTONISHING ClIllB OF A CONFIBMED LIVER COMPLAINT. Mrs. Mary Sandford, residing in Leather-lane, Holborn, Lon- don, had been labouring for five years under the effects of a idis- eased Liver, which produced Indigestion, Sick Headaches, Dim- ness of Sight, Lownessot Spirits, Irritability ot Temper, Drow- siness, Occasionl Stwellings of the body and legs, with General Weakness and Debility. She attended the Hospitals, at different periods, for about three years, but she only got worse instead of better, and her recovvery at last appeared quite hopeless; but, not withstanding the very bad state of her health, she was, in about two months, restored to perfect heajtb by the means alone of this all-powerfuland efficacious medicine—Holloway s Pills.

He was then advised by a friend (who had tried this medicine), to go through a proper couise of Hol. loway's Pills, which he did and in about four months his for- merly shattered frame was so completely invigorated as to enable him to prepare himself again for his immediate return to India, whither he will embark ia the coming spring of this year, 1845 This gentleman is now residing in Regent s Park. where he is well known, in connseqence of his opulence and liberality.

HEALTH, LONG LIFE, AND HAPPINESS, SECURED BY THAT POPULAR MEDICINE NO Medicine yet offered to the world ever so rapidly attained such distinguished celebrity is is questionable if there be now any part of the cirilised globe where its extraordinary heal. ing virtues have not been exhibited. This signnl success is not attributable to any system of advertising, but solely to the strong recommendations of parties cured by their use. The Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills have now in their possession upwards of FIFTEEN HUHDHED LETTERS, several of them from Clergymen of the Church of England, many from distinguished Dissenting Ministers, from gentlemen connected with the Army and Navy, also from Members of Parliament, Merchants, and last, though not least from members of the Medical Profession, and a skilful Analytical Chemist; all speaking in the highest terms of the value of this inestimable medicine. This is a mass of evidence in its favour beyond all parallel. The extraordinary properties of this medicine are thus descri- bed by an eminent physician, who says. "Alterparticular obser- vation of the action of Parr's Pills, I am determined, in my opinion, that the following are their true properties First They increase the strength, whilst most other medi- cines have a weakening effect upon the system. Let any one take from three to four or six pills every twenty-four hours, and instead of having weakened, they will be found to have revived the animal spirits, and to have imparted a lasting strength to the body. Secondly—In their operations they go direct to the disease. After you have taken six or twelve pills you will experience their effect; the disease upon you will become less and less by every dose you take, and if you persevere in regularly taking from three to six pills every day, your disease will speedily be entirely removed from the system. Thitdty—They are found after giving them a fair trial for a few weeks to possess the most astonishing and invigorating pro- perties, and they will overcome all obstinate complaints, and Restore Sound Health there _i« a return of good appetite shortly from the beginning of their use, whitst their mildnees as a purgative is a desideratum greatly required by the weik and delicate, particularly where violent purging is acknowledged to be injurious instead of beneficial. Fourthly-As ageneral Family Medicine they are exceedingly valuable, and no family shouid be without them, they may be used with perfect safety in any disease, for to every disease they are of inestimable value. John Dale, Esq.. of Manchester, Lecturer on Chemistry, and Pupil of the late celebrated Dr. Dalton, tf.R.S., in a letter addressed to the Proprietors in 1."10- don, says I belt to state I find them woithy of being recom- mended to the public for their efficacy and simplicity, and to be really vegetable pills,containing, as they do, nothing but what is of vegetable origin. With this assurance the public need have no fear of giving them a fair trial. Fifthly—There is no medicine ever introduced to the public that has become so universally popular with females as PAHII'S LIFE PILIS. For all complaints peculiar to females they are of most astonishing efficacy and they areconfidenlly recommenced to them for general use. A trial of a box of these pills will at once prove the truth of this assertion. IMPORTANT TO THE PUBLIC. We consider we are performing an act of humanity to the community of Van Dieman's Land, in acknowledging that statements have been made to us by several persons who have taken Parr's Life Pills with the most beneficial effect to them. Accounts of theirefficacy have been furnished us by various iudi viduals who have taken them, since the supply furnished by the patentees in England to Mr. Dllwhng but they have generally savoured so much of the marvellous, that we have hesitated to make the statements public. However, we are now saiisfied from further accounts given to us, that to hesitate longer would ba per- petrating an act of criminal omission to our fellow creatures, and having taking taken the piils ourselves with the-most satisfactory result, we perform an actot duty only in most strongly recom- mending the use of them to the public at large. This we feel the. more confidence in doing, knowing that under any circumstances they cannot do harm and our conscientious belief is, that they cannot be takenby anv person without doing him good.Conl- wall (Van Dieman's Land) Gaiette, Dec. 23rd, 1844.

It has been before the public only « few years and io this short period has firmly established itself in public favour.. and has effected an immense benefit to all who have obtained this inestimable medicine genuine.

[The following Address was, in substance, prepared by the late Dean of Llandaff, a short time before his death. Various circumstances have prevented its earlier publication; but it is hoped that the force of this posthumous appeal will not be weakened by this unavoidable delay ] To the Laity of the Diocese of Liaiultiff, and to the Public in general. MY LOItDS AND GKMTLFMFK, A CONSIDERABLE interval lias now elapsed since I f\ appealed to the clergy of tins diocese in behalf of an eilbrt to resiore some portion, al least, of our anoentCathedia). In the address then circulated, 1 d\% eit at some length ou the cir- cumstances winch gave rise to a strong manifestation of public fedim; in favour of the pious undertaking, and quoted some encouragiug remarks, vvhic'i, though delivered at a meeting con- vened for another purpose, contained various suggestions and promises of suppoit offered in a spirit of the most cordial libf r m I ity. In that address I also mentioned, with sincere gratification, the number of mtimations which had been conveyed to me on the subject, and recorded the progress already made in the res- toration of the Welth Chapel, ancu-atly called the Lady Chapel. This appeal to the Clergy was lesponded to in the kindest manner by the member; of the Chapter, and the Clerical body at iarge. The measure of their sympathy will be estimated by the list of their names and contributions, and a consideration of the very scanty revenue of the church throughout the diocese. HE who regards the willing IlIlnd, and accepts according to the ability rather than the amount, will surely appreciate this labour of love. From the Clergy I turn to the laiiv of Glamorgan and Mon- mouth in particular, and to the Public generally, in behalf of our attempt to restore, or at le.ist to improve, our venerable Cathedral. The See of Llandaff is asserted to be—beyond dispute-the oldest, as its revenues are unquestionably the poorest, in the kiugdom, "Touching the aoiiquity of this church," savs Bishop Godwin, it is reported to have been built in the 2ud century, about the year of Christ. 180. It is certain that Dubri- tius presided here in 436, and that he was instituted metropo- litan in these parts." For more than fourteen centuries of the Christian era has Llandaff existed with VarloÎIM fluctuations of wealth and depression, as an Episcopal See and it may serve lo shew how great has been the spoil and waste ol her revenues when we state, on the authority of the same Bishop Godwin, "th.tt so much riches has been bestowed on Llandaff, that if it enjoyed the tenth part of that winch it has been endowed with first and last, il would be one of the wealthiest churches in Christendom wheteas," adds the mournful chronicle, it hath now hardly sufficient to repair itself." In the beginning of the 12th century. Uiban, the thirtieth Bishop of this See, had it in his heart to rebuild this church. At his first coming, he found his bishopiiek in a very poor and miserable cOlldition-the church almost ruined to the ground —the revenues so confiscated, lhat out of twenty-lour canons they could now scarcely maintain two." The zealous bishop com- plained thereof to the King and other authorities, and in the vear 1119 procured letters to the Clergy and Gentry of this Kingdom, particularly of his own Diocese. By this means, having gathered great sums, lie pulled down the old church, and began, U)>OQ the 14th April, 1120, the building of the present fabric, which is, says Godwin, a very elegant one, being 300 feet long, and 8 ) broad, and adorned at the west end with two stately towers of great height, and a neat Chapel of our Lady, a work truly magnificent, and to be remembered with honour by poueiity In 1478, Bishop Marshall became a great benefactor to this Cathedral, in ''beautifying it by fresco painting, and by an altar piece of free-stone." It is a melancholy task to contrast its early beauty with its present deformity. Browne Willis, in his prefatory epistle to his Survey of the Cathedral Church of Llandaff, wilting in the year 1715, des- cribes it as having fallen into a most deplorable decay within the last few years;" and thth louchinglv expresses his reasons for undertaking his work Wherefore it was that after a sad contemplative test so glorious a structure as this church, honoured by being the ancientest Bishop's 'See in the Kingdom (as we have evident authouty 10 show) raised, enriched, and beautified bv the piety of so many noble founders, should be utterly destroyed; that 1 forthwith," &c., Xc. hIs to prevent the accomplishment of this anticipated evil, to stay and repair the ravages of time. that I now appeal. with confidence to pub- lic generosity, foindivulual taste, and above all, to national piely. To that natural Inquiry-" What have you done for your- selves ? —How far have you put your shoulders to the burthen ?" we answer-we have done what we could. We have, at our own capitular cost, placed a new covering of lead over the whole ot the roof of the Cathedral, the aisles, and the chapel. We have raised a new celling within: we have also, from our own private, as well as from capilu lar resourc,>s. assisted by theclergy and some leading persons of the dioce-e, effected the complete restoration of the Weish chapel, in a manner entirely approved by competent judges and men of taste. Our desire now is to early oil the work of improvement in the Cathedral at large. How far this desire may be accomplished must depend upon the extent of our means. Earnestly do we hope thatyoor liberality may enable us to effect a complete res- toration of the beautiful and veneiable fabric; but, should our funds prove insufficient for the immediate execution of that purpose, we are justified in expecting that enough may be col- lected, not only to execute the extensive improvements now in hand, but to carry forward its gradual restoration upon a settled and uniform plan, and in a style of architecture corresponding with the noble remains of the ancient edifice. What then remain unfinished may be completed by the piety of those who follow us in the good work. Care being studiously taken to do nothing < turselves which they may wish undone; but, on the contrary t i leave them an example, which shall at once guide and encou- ra,ge them in prosecuting the same design. That wishes and efforts having such an object in view will be met by the public with a willing heart and a. liberal hand, we enl, n-tain no doubt. We are far flam relieciiiig upon the want of t iste of our predecessors, who, near a century ago, refitted tire ( -iiiii-ch for Divine service, after it had lain 30 years in ruins. They- did what they could, according to the style of that age- when the arts, and, more especially, architecture were in this country at the lowest ebb. We are arfxious to remedy those defect s. We appeal to an age far more wealthy, and far better taught,, to supply us with funds, which they may be sure will now be., applied with equal zeal, but with infinitely better effect. We call upon the lovers of our reformed church to lend a friendly hand to > this pious work-to help us when struggling in a good cause- labouring to change a disfigured, but still a venerable, structui e, into a f.irtn worthy of itssotemn and holy purposes, and con esponding with the dignity of a Cathedral Institution. Without such aid, the object is unattainable. We shall still, indeed, m ake the attempt let it not be said that you looked on with indihleience, and that, iu consequence of that indifference, our attempt -has been unsuccessful.

THE LATE EXECUTIONS. The execution of Martha Browning lor murder at Westminster took place on Monday morning, at the usual hour, in liont of the gaol in Newgate. Contrary to the general custom, the spectators did not congregate so early or eo numerously as on previous occasions, and it may be stiil moie gratifying to state, that there were not ouiy less respectably-dressed persons present, but com- paratively few females; such an were on the spot belonging to the most degraded class. The unhappy woman slept well during the night, aad, on rising in the morning, had lost none of the firmness she had previously evinced. When she made her appearance on the scaffold, not the slightest groan or ebullition of feeling was expressed by the assembled crowd. She was dressed in deep mourning, and ascended the scaffold with a firm step, without betraying theslighiest symptom of fear or requiring the least support. She evidently paid the greatest attention to the Rev. Ordinary, and in vhe way to, a» well as on, Ihe seaffold, repeatedly declared, I deserve it—1 deserve it." The cap having been drawn over her face, and the rope adjusted, the bolt was withdrawn, and she passed from this world to the mi". Soon after the grcat bulk of the crowd begun to disperse, 1 great portion of whom, we regret to say, proceeded with "real speed to the next sad scene of action at Horsemonger-laoe, whero the execution of the convict Quenoell, (or murder, was to tllke place at a faler hour. The composed slate of mind which tins culprit exhibited during his trial did not desert him up to the latest moment. He slept soundly on Sunday night, and, by his own request, was awoke at an early hour. At nine o'elo.k, he partook of the Sacrament in the prison chapel, afier which, tie again engaged in prayer with the Rev. Ordinary, until the armal of the Sheriff of Surrey, at a quarter to len o'rlork. the hangman, whohadcompteted his dreadful duties at New gate, aitived at the prison about the same lime, and at h»e minutes to ten o'clock he was introduced to the condemned c«il, where the prisoner submitted to be pinioned without a murmur, maintaining the same degree of firmness which had chal3ctellufl hIm throughout. The prisoner walked up to the scaffold without a- ,s''S^test assistance, and, having first taken leave of tlm officials, placed himself in the proper position, immediately be- low the cioss-beam. The bolt having been withdrawn, the drop tell, and the culprst died apparently without a struggle. 1 here was a largo crowd of spectators in front of the gaol, and several barefaced robberies were commirted immediately beneath ,h6 gallows A POOR MAN'S LUK SAVED by Hoi I.OWAV'S PN.I.s.— Jere- miah Laughlin, a porter about file qua)sd Dublin, was afflicted for years with shortness of breath, spitting of phlegm, night perspirations, and general weakness 01 body, a want of appetite, sick head-ache, beside* suffering much from the liver.
