TO THE GENTRY, CLERGY, (FREEHOLDERS ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF MONMOUTH, GENTLEMEN, Since [ last addressed you, I have re- vived such general assurances of support, and very dimerous friends have shown such untiring assi- duity and zeal in my behalf, that I feel called upon lJo longer to delay the public expression of my Warmest thanks. After the confidence, which, on thirteen different, occasions you have been pleased to shew me, and after a connexion with the County of Monmouth fOr more than thirty years, I do feel the sincerest Pleasure at the manner in which my pretensions to Continue to represent it in Parliament, have been J'eceived: and I look forward with great confidence tO the period (whenever it may come,) for you to exf.ress at the Poll your opinion of my fitness again to discharge the important duties of your ^presentative in the Parliament of this mighty •Empire.

J ASTONISHING EFFICACY OF L HOLLO WAY'S PILLS. The Testimony of a Clergyman vouching to Eleven Cases of Cures by these wonderful Pills. Extract of a Letter from the Rev. George Prior, Curate of Mevagh, Letter Kenuy, Carrigart, Ireland, 10th January, 1846. To Professor Holloway. sIR I send yon a crude list of some eleven cases, all cured by the Use of your Pills. 1 cannot exactly give you a professional name to the various complaints, but this 1 know, some of them baffled the 9 skill of Derry and this county. In a previous letter this gentleman states as follows:—Within a short distance of my house resides a *■Small farmer, who, for more than twenty years has been in a bad state of health; Mrs. Prior gave him a box of the Pills, which did him so ttiuch good that I heard him say, for twenty years past, he never ate his food or enjoyed it so much as since taking your Pills. J J (Signed) GEORGE PRIOR. *< The above reverend and pious gentleman purchased some pounds' worth of the Pills for the benefit of his poor parishioners. BAD DIGESTION, WITH EXTREME WEAKNESS & DEBILITY, AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE. Mr T Gardiner of No. 9, Brown-street, Grosvenor square, had been ,f in a very bad state of health for a long time, suffering much from a dis- tended stomach, very impaired digestion, with constant pains in his ■chest was extremely nervous, and so greatly debilitated as scarcely able to walk one hundred yards; during the Jong period of his declining health he had the advice of four of the most eminent physicians, besides five surgeons of the greatest celebrity in London, from whose aid he de- rived no benefit whatever; at last he had recourse to Holloway's Pills, which he declares effected a perfect cure in a very short time, and that he is now as strong and vigourous as ever he was in his life. This being so extraordiiiay a case, may lead many persons almost to doubt this statement, it might therefore be necessary to say that Mr. Gardiner is a broker and wt'll known.

Extract of a Letter from His Lordship, dated Villa Messina, Leghorn, 21st February, 1«45. To Professor Holloway. SIR,-Various circumstances prevented the possibility of my thanking you before this time far your politeness in sending me your pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of sending you an order for the amount, a id, at the same time, to add that your pills have effected a cure of a d sorder in my Liver imd Stomach, which all the most eminent of the Faculty at home, and all over the Continent, had not been able to eflect; nay, not even the waters of Carlsbad and Marienbad.

To Joshua Ball, hereby testify, that I have been dreadfully affiicted with Rheumatic Gout for 17 years, so that I have, at times, kept my bed for months together, and could not get any- thing to do me good, till 1 took PARR'S LIFE PILLS, which I am very happy to state have nearly restored me to perfect health. As witness my hand, this 11th day of September. JOSHUA BALL. Extraordinary Case of Cure in British America. Public attention is respectfully called to the following letter, furwarded by Mr. J. Noble, bookseller, Boston, to the Proprie- tors of Parr's Life Pills another proof that this medicine is the most efficacious remedy of the present day Gentlemen, Boston. My neighbour, Mr. John Costal), sadler and harness maker, of this borough, has this morning shewn me a letter he has re- ceived from a near relative, residing at NitRara. in Canada ;and has kindly allowed me to extract the following paragraph theie- from, which 1 subjoin Elizabeth has been very bad with the liver complaint all the winter, so that the doctors gave her up as incurable, when a druggist in this place, received a slock of Parr's Life Pills; and in looking over the certificates, I observed one from Mr. John Noble, of Boston, (England), which induced me to try them, and I am happy to say that they have produced the happiest result. She now enjoys better health than she has done for ten years. They have also cured me of the erysipelas and soie throat, with which I have been very sick." The above plain statement speaks for itself, and is more gratifying to me, from the tr.ct that the parties were the more readily induced to make a trial of the medicine, from seeing a testimony to its merits from, Gentlemen, yours truly, J NonLE, Wholesale and Retail Agent, Boston, Lincolnshire. P S.—Mr. Costal1 or myself will be happy to answer any enquiiies. enquii ies. To the Proprietors of Parr's Life Pills.

LOSS OF TEETH. Messrs.

They are so fixed as to fasten any loose teeth where the gum* have shrunk, from the use of calomel, or other causes. They also beg to invite those not liking to undergo any painful opera tion.as practised by most members of the profession, to inspec- their painless, yet effective, system and in order that their im- provements may be within the reach of the most economical, ih ey will continue the same mode-ate charges.

From among numer- ous testimonials, the following is respectfully submitted :— To Mr. Thomas Piout,229, Strand, London. No. 5, David-street, Regent-road, Manchester March 12. 1842. Sir.-I have much satisfaction in corilmunicating to you the result of my experience, after repeated trials of Frampton's Pill of Health, and 1 feel it but justice to state, that in the course of many years' trial of various Aperient Medicines, I have never found results at once so salutary and efficient in the relief of the system from redundant bile, &c., ""co. with so little inconvenience; I am, therefore, warranted in declaring that iliey supply to me a means long wanting of being able to recommend to families, schools, and especially mercantile men, whelher at the desk or on the road, a most valuable resource in an occa- sional medicine. And I shall take credit to myself if, in giving this testimony, I am the means of making Frampton's Pills more generally known and appreciated. I am, sir, respectfully yours, "WH.MAM SMITH." The unprecedented sale of these Pills, arising from the ear- nest recommendation of the many thousands who have delived benefit from their use. tenders any lengthened comment unne- cessary.

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 pages.Age and Argus. "The authors of The Silent Friend' seem to be thoroughly conver- sant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are, we fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in which this book 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.

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 most dreadful forms; or else, unseen internally endanger the very vital organs of existence. To those suffering from the consequences winch 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, palale, &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 tespon- sibilities of inatiimony, 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 ea»ential, 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, )t must be remembered, where the fountain is polluted he streams that flow from it cannot be pure."

BETTS & Co. also avail thenteeflves«ftl» £ present most seasonable opportunity to direct public attention to the peculiar salutary properties of the Selters Water, respecting which many eminent physicians have expressed the most lavourable opinions,. deserving of serious and attentive consideration. The learned Monsieur Caventou, of Paris, makes some observations replete with interest and truth. We know of no mineral water suited to such variety of constitutions. It exercises an especial action on the biliary system, frequently and promptly checking the worst symptoms, whether connected with vomiting ordtarrhasa." He concludes by recommending Selters Water as one of the most salubrious drinks for warm climates, and ranges it in the first rank of antiscorbutics and preventions of dysentry. Whilst M. Augustus Wetter, Physician of Berlin, the latest and most celebrated writer on Mineral Springs, states, "Sellers water is- highly beneficial in cases of gastric iiritation, bilious vomiting,, or diarthiBa, and ought to be administered in small, but fie- quenily-repealed doses. In cases of dyspepsia, either from irritation or weak sto.nach, the continued use of Selters Water is highly advantageous." Messrs. Betts ik Co. cannot too strongly caution the public: against the evils of artificial gaseous waters generally, since the learned Monsieur Caventou informs us that they frequently produce so much inconvenience and danger as to cause its use to> be replaced by that of the natural, the latter acting as a very antidote to the former." Numerous attempts having been made to impose upon the public by some manufacturers ot artificial waters and other mix- tures, by idvertising that they enjoy the privilege of receiving, supplies of the natural Selters Water direct from the springs, Messrs. BETTS & Co. beg to state that they have the exclusive right of procuring the same ducct from the Springs, and, as evi- dence thereof, they publish the following Declaration of the Nassau Government, founded upon its solemn contract with Mr, J. T. BETTS. THE GEIVF.RAL DIRECTION OF THE DOMAINS OF HIS HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF NASSAU, DICLARE, by these presents, that, being desirous to prevent and put a stop to the numerous falsifications committed in respect to the Waters of Selters, and to secuie, for the future, to the Kingdom ot Great Britain, its Colonies, and Dependencies, the enjoyment of the genuine Water of tb,tt Spring, they have resolved, from the 1st of January, 1845, to use the Metallic Capsules of Alt.

R|^HE Best Cognac Brandy is the produce of a tract of land FL in Fiance, well known as 'The Champagne Distiict. To meet a demand, greatly disproportionate to the supply- afforded by so limited an area, the Foreign Traders in the aitk-le were notoriously in the habit of adulterating it with other Brandies, of an inferior quality and they, thereby, induced a great number of the Propiietors of the best Vineyards in that district, to establish a company, in the year 18.1if, under the name of "The United Vineyard Proprietors' Company." FOR the purpose of counteracting the banelul effects of such fraudu- lent practices upon the character of Cognac Brandy, and of enabling the public to obtain through them the genuine artide. The reputation which the company now enjoys in the market, is the strongest proof of the fidelity with which they have hitherto effectuated the purposes for which they were formed. This Company has engaged to supply Messrs. BETTS and Co., as appears by the following letter:- C gnac, 14th March, 184G. "Messrt.Betts and Co., London.

Review of the British Corn Trade. The complaints respecting the potatoe crop have become to universal as to create considerable unt-asioess until recently we were disposed to believe that the mischief likely to result from the disease, which has for the second time attacked this crop, had been greatly exaggerated. We were, therefore, induced to take mere thin ordinary care in collecting information on the subject, and we are sorry to say that the reports from correspondents, in whose statements we are bound to place the fulltst reliance, are of a nature sufficiently alarming. That the disorder prevails t'x. tens vety all over England, Scotland, and Ireland, no longer admits of doubt; and that its effects will be more severely felt than lart year is nearly as certain. In the first place a kss breadth of land was planted than usual this spring, owing to the dyubis reasonably enteitained or. to the policy of putting much ground under this crop whilst the origin and nature of the disease of the previous season remained involved in mystery. The severe drought in May, June, and part of July, was certainly very no. favourable, luasuiuch as moisture is highly needed by this plant during the summer mouths; and it is moie than probab:e ih it the produce from this cause alone would have been very short, even if there had been no return of the blight, murrain, or what- ever else the disorder in question may be teimed. Under these circumstances a very material deficiency must, we fear, be reckoned on and substitutes of one son or other will be re- quired to an extent which is likely to affect prices of almost all arliHes of food. An unusually laige consumption of wheat is. theiefore, likely to take place during the autumn and winter, and we much question whethei the value thereof will long continue as law as it is at piesttit. The weather has been unsettled, and haivest operations have been, moie or less, interrupted by the showers which have fallen at intervals. Should that portion of the crop still out be secured in good order, the produce of wheat of the United Kingdom would, we think, fall little, if any, short of a full average but there is still a great deal in the fields norili of the Humber, the quality of which stands in danger 01 being injured, unless the weather should become really fiue. Some mischief has already been done, the heat and moisture having, in parual instances, caused the corn to sprout in like ear; ihese cases are pariiaps at present rare, there having been far !eas rain in tiie north than iu the south, where comparatively littie wheat is now abroad. The showers have, nevertheless, caused a feveiish and uneasy teeling and holders of wheat have shown much less anxiety to realize, whilst the inclination to £ et into stock has decidedly increased. Hitherto no very great change has occuned in prices, but the tendency has been upwards at all the leading provincial markets held since our last. By our advices from Scotland we learn that the somewhat firmer tone or the accounts from the south, with the spread of the potata disease, had caused holdeis of most kinds of grain to laisu their pretensions and at Edinburgh, as well as at Glasgow, wheat, barley, and oats, as well as flour and meal, were held at enhanced terms on Wednesday. Most of our letters horn Ireland allude to the potatoe disease but quotations of wheat and oats do not appear to have been much affected by the anticipated scarcity of the staple article of food of the poorer classes. The arrivals of wheat coastwise into Londod have been very small. The superior quality of tiie new wheat hitherto brought forward has rendered the millers anxious to secure a portion, and it has consequently commanded higher rates than old. The best inns of red have not been sold below 48s., or fine white under 54s.; whilst picked samples have brought 2s. per qr. over these terms. The average prices are, nevertheless, low, and it is now certain that the duty will, in the course of a fortnight, rise to 10r. per quarter, the maximum poiDt under the existing laws it is already 8. having advanced a step on Thursday and as thera is a demand for bonded wheat for export, it is not likely that any which may yet reach us from abroad will be entered for home consumption. The improvement in the wheat trade has caused a better de- mand for flour the aominal top price of town-made has remained stationary, but ship samples have been held Is. pet sack higher. American flour has been in rather lively request, and some IOJ- portant sales were made towards the close of the week at ralfs 6d. to Is. per barrel above those current on Monday. Of English barley only 408 quarters have come to hand, whilsj the foreign received has been warehoused under lock the quan- tity for sale has, consequently, been small. This grain has, nevertheless, sold very slowly and we can note no improvement either in the demand for or value of this article. The transactions in malt have likewise been on a restricted scale; and quotations have undergone no change requiring any notice. The arrivals of oats from our own coast and Scotland have been trifling in the extreme. Until Wednesday the principal dealers continued to conduct their operations with extreme caution since then, however, the inclination to get into stock has certainly increased, and on Friday rather large purchases were made, at prices 6d. to Is. per qr. above those current in the commencement of the week. English beans have become very scarce, the stocks of old having been reduced into a narrow compass, and no new havino- yet been brought forward. The article, has, consequently, been held with much firmness, and former rates have been well maintained. Peas liive also come sparingly to hand and the recent advance has been firmly insisted on. Slime stir is being made respecting the duties on this article and rye, which have, since the new corn law has been in operation, been levied according to the averayes of barley, This, we think, could scarcely have been the intention of the ;framers of the bill, as instances might easily occur that might render it advisable to admit one article at a low duty. whtist it might be equally desirable to have a hiohei rale imposed jn another. To put a case, we will suppose that the crop of barley is abundant, whilst beans and peas are nearly a failure. Would II, under such circumstances, be either fair or politic to discourage the importation of the latter article, though gieaily wanted, because barley happened to be plentiful and cheap 1 Such, however, would be the working of the existing scale.- Mark Lane Express.)

PEKSONAL BEAUTY !—Among the most valuable attributes of beauty, whether regarded as conducive to manly purity and grace of aspect, or as auxiliary to feminioe loveliness, a beautiful set of teeth must evar rank among the mottimportantetetnentt of a favorabU pers<nial appearance. The embellishment and preservation of the teelfi and gums have theftfore ever been regarded with peculiar interest, and among the mass of prepara- tions suggested for thase desirable purposes, we could particu- larize Rowland's OJonto, or Pearl Dentrifice," as unrivalled for its excellence in purifying, embellishing, and preserving the^e important and attractive objects.—See Adveitisemeot. GHEAT NAMES.——We hear the names or statesmen, warriors authors, &c., &c., spoken of in terms of giowum admiration but who, we would ask, has achieved such red alJd Intllrlbte good for this country as Old Parr has done. Has he no left behind him a monument of imperishable structure, wlnl-t the thousand* who have been miraculous!y cured by Parr's 1,ile Pills, are, of th- mselves, a convincing proof of their extraoidioaiy virtue in all cases of illness to which the human frame is liable.

AR.ANMING ACCIDENT TO SIR CHARLES WETHEREU.. We lament to stale a very severe and alarming accident happened lo Sir Charles Wetheicll, in the neighbourhood of Maidstone, on Monday morning. It appeals that the learned gentleman had arrived at Maidstone by train, and was desirous of going Oil to Rochester, for which purpose he had engaged a one-hursA phaiton, with a driver, and proceeded towards the latter placw, taking what is called the Lowei -road, striking the river Med way' for the purpose of passing through the village of Wouldham. On arriving near the seal of C. Mtlner, Esq., Preston HalJ, SOUle triflingcircu»»tanc«, said to be the horse's tdil catching the rein'. caused the animal slightly to mend us pace, on which Sir Charles, who was sitting on the box with the driver, unhappily caught hold of the reins, and the horse, dait.ing to the side of the road, dashed the carriage against a heap of stones, which caused it to upset, throwing Sir Charles to the ground with great violence. The learned gentleman on being raised, was found to be most alarmingly injured. The driver and Sir Charles's valet escaped unhurt, sir Charles was immediately conveyed to Preston Hall, and was attended by Mr. Dennis, ol Aylesford, and Dr. lavior, Maidstone; but so set 10ns did these gentlemen consider the state of their patient, that the valet was soon after dispatched to London to procure the attendanc-of an nunent physician. The precise nature of the injury sustained y SirCharfes we have not been able to learn, but doubtless the hock sustained by hi, system at his advanced age, 76, must alone be sufficient to create the most paiuful apprehensions,—Mertiing Herald.
