Mackie, a respectable Quaker, dated Creenagh, near Loughal, Ireland, dated September 11<A, 1848. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. RESPECTED FRIEND,-Thy excellent Pills have effec- tually cured me of an Asthma, which afflicted me for three years to such an extent, that I was obliged to walk my room at night for air, afraid of being suffocated if I went to bed by cough and phlegm. Besides taking the Pills, I rubbed plenty of thy Ointment into my chest night and morning. (Signed) „BENJAMIN MACKIE. Cure of Typhus Fever, when supposed to be at the Point of Death. A respectable female in 'the neighbourhood of Long- hal, was attacked with Typhus Fever, and lay for five days without having tasted any description of food. She was given over by the Surgeon, and preparations were made for her demise. Mr. Benjamin Mackie, the Quaker, whose case is referred to above, heard of the circumstance and knowing the immense benefit that he himself had derived from Holloway's Pills, recommended an imme- diate trial, and eight were given to her, and the same number was continued night and morning for three days, and in a very short time she was completely cured. N.B.-From advice just received, it appears that Col. Dear, who is with his Regiment in India, the 21st Fusileers, cured himself of a very bad attack of Fever by these celebrated Pills. There is no doubt that any Fever, however malignant, may be cured by taking night and morning, copious doses of this fine medicine. The patient should be induced to drink plentifully of warm linseed tea or barley water. CURE OF DROPSY IX THE CHEST. Extract of a letter from J. S. Mundy, Esq., dated Ken- nington, near Oxford, December, 2nd, 1848. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. SIR,-My Shepherd for some time was afflicted with water on the chest, when I heard of it, I immediately advised him to try your Pills, which he did, and was per- fectly cured, and is now as well as ever he was in his life. As I myself received so astonishing a cure last year from your Pills and Ointment, it has ever since been my most earnest endeavour to make known their excellent qualities. (Signed) J. S. MUNDY. The Earl of Aldborough cured of a Liver and Stomach Complaint. Extract of a Letter from His Lordship, dated Villa Messina, Leghorn, 21st Feb., 1815. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. Siit.-Various circumstances prevented the possibility of my thanking you before this time for your politeness in sending me your Pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of sending you an order for the amount, and, at the same time, to add that your Pills have effected a cure of a disorder in my Liver and Stomach, which all the most eminent of the Faculty at home, and all over the Continent, had not been able to effect nay, not even the waters of Carlsbad and Marienbad. I wish to have another box and a pot of the ointment, in case any of my family should ever require either. Your most obliged and obedient servant, (Signed) ALDBOROUGH. Cure of a Debilitated Constitution. Mr. Mate, a Storekeeper, of Gundagai, New South Wales had been for some time in a most delicate state of health, his constitution was so debilitated that his death was shortly looked upon by himself and friends as cer- tain but as a forlorn hope, he was induced to try Hol- loway's Pills, which had an immediate and surprising effect upon his system, and the result was to restore him in a few weeks to perfect health and strength, to the surprise of all who knew him. He considered his case so extraordinary that he, in gratitude, sent it for publi- cation, to the Sydney Morning Herald, in which paper it appeared on the 2nd January, 1848. A few doses of the Pills will quickly rally the energies of both body and mind, when other medicines have failed. Sold at the Establishment of Professor Holloway, 244, Strand, (near Temple Bar) London, and by most all respectable druggists, and dealers in medicines through- out the civilised world, at the following prices -Is. lid., 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., lis., 22s. and 33s. each box. There is a considerable saving by taking the larger sizes. N.B.-Directions for the guidance of Patients in every disorder are affixed to each box. DR. LA'MEP.,T ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY, WITH FORTY COLOURED ENGRAVINGS. Just Published, and ?y 6<- had in French or English, in a sealed <?<-?, 2?. 6d., or post /?, ./? the Author, for 42 jt<«?, Medical Treatise on the R^PT W.PRPSERVATION.—A Medical Treatise on the S Physiology of Marriage, and on the Secret Infirmities and Disorders of Youth and Maturity, usually acquired at an early period of life, which enervate the physical and menS ?-ers, diminish and enfeeble the natural feelings and exhaust the vital energies of Manhood; with practical observations on the treatment of Ner- vous Debility and Indigestion whether arising from these causes, close study, or the influence of tropical climates; Local and Constitutional Weakness, Syphi- lis, Stricture, and all diseases and derangements re- sulting from Indiscretion. With forty coloured En- gravings, illustrating the Anatomy, Physiology, and Diseases of the Reproductive Organs, explaining their structures, uses, and functions, and the various in- juries that are produced in them by solitary habits, excesses, and infection. By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, Bedford-sq., London, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the Uni- versity of Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. &-c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order that it may be really the cause of mutua l hap- piness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it be traced to physical disqualiifcations and their attendant disappointments. Excesses are always injiirious; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less injury to the constitu- tional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequences of which this Treatise pro- fesses to dilate, are productive of greater misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and much neglected branch of medical practice; and the author having obtained the highest medical honours is a guarantee for his professional ex- perience, which has reference almost solely to the treat- ment of these diseases. RKVIEW OF THE WOKK. LA NIBRT ON THE INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY. —There are scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but CONSCIENCE and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the mortal who meets with a timely Mentor to snatch him from the gulph into which such scenes must plunge him In the book before us such a monitor is to be found. Far be it from us to misdirect our pen or sully our pages with a notice in any shape of a work that would iaiut the purest mind or pander to one evil principle ot human Ealsire but the book under review, so far from having a ten- dency of the kind, is one calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without imparting one idea that can vitiate a mind not alroadv tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written iu a style of masterly precision and lucidity, Dlending the profomw'est truths of philosophy and physic witn the loftiest p«><'ejjt« of morality We speak eraphaticallj in our uosition as public censors and the guardians of public-morals. In fomnwn svitli many, we have heretofore nourished a deep aù'i pa,tí:t a.¡;aj ast aU medical works treating on matters whlc h siiun tIP ^y<? but the book being placed on our table for notice, wo have been bound to give it an impartial perusal and feel equally bound to state our impression that it is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, plij sica.lv and morally, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path oi abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By untaught innocence the book is not of course needed but wherever laxi y has prevailed, the tender vet awful voice breathing in these pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial to the admonitions of a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medieine.—UNITED KINGDOM MAGAZINE.

This Coffee will produce a strong, rich, and transparent liquor, by pouring boiling water upon it, and allowing it to settle. It does not require Isinglass, White of Egg, or other material to clarify it. Boiled Milk should be used The process of boiling Coffee evaporates the aromatic principle, and injures the flavour.

Fraud on the Stamp Revenue in the Transfer, of Shares in Railways and other Public Companies. IT being understood that, on the Sale of Shares in JL Railway, and other Joint Stock Companies, a prac- tice exists of omitting to state in the Instrument of Transfer the true sum paid or agreed to be paid for such Shares, whereby the Stamp Duty payable on such Trans- fer is evaded; The Commissioners of Inland Revenue deem it right to give the following Public Notice, viz.:— That on the Sale of Property of any kind, it is re- quired by Law that the full Purchase or Consideration Money which shall be directly or indirectly paid, or secured or agreed to be paid for the same, shall be truly expressed and set forth in words, at length, in the Deed or Instrument whereby the Property shall be transfer- red and that in default thereof, both the Purchaser and Seller incur a penalty of Fifty Pounds and five times the amount of the Duty evaded by the omission and that the person employed in preparing the Transfer incurs a penalty of Five Hundred Pounds; and if he be an Attorney, Solicitor, or Writer to the Signet, he is, on Conviction, thenceforth disabled from practising. That if either of the Parties to the Transfer gives in- formation to the Commissioners, whereby the Penalty incurred by the other, or the Quintuple Duty, or any part thereof may be recovered, he is not only to be in- demnified and discharged from his liability, but may be rewarded, out of the money so recovered, to such an extent not exceeding one-half thereof as the Commis- sioners shall think proper. That the Purchaser may recover back from the Seller, in an action at law, so much of the Purchase Money as shall not be set forth in the Transfer, or the whole thereof, if no part be set forth. The Commissioners also give Notice, that they will liberally reward Persons who may give them information by means of which any of such Penalties shall be re- covered. By Order of the Board, J. C.

PARR'S LIFE PILLS. rPHE extraordinary properties of this medicine are thus described by an eminent physician, who says :—" After particular observation 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 medicines 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 im- parted a lasting strength to the body. "Secondly—In their operation they go direct to the disease-. After you have taken six or twelve pi?lq you will ex=c their effect; the disease upon you will lecome less and less by every dose you take; an d if you will persevere in regu- larly taking from three to six pills every day, your disease will speedily be entirely removed from the system. Thirdly—They are found, after given them a fair trial for a few weeks, to possess the most astonishing and invigora- ting properties, tgat they will overcome all obstinate com- plaints, and restore sound health' there is a return of good .I,P,?ti? hrtly from the beginning of their use whilst their mildness as a purgative is a desideratum greatly required by the weak and delicate, particularly where violent purging is acknowledged to be injurious instead of beneficial. TO PERSONS GOING ABROAD. These Pills are particularly recommended to all persons going abroad, and subjecting themselves to great change of climate. Officers of the Army and Navy, Missionaries, Emi- grants, &c., will find them an invaluable appendage to their medicine chests, as a preventive of the attacks of those dis- eases so prevalent in our Colonies, especially in the West Indies, where a small box recently sold for lOs, In America also its fame is getting known, and its virtues duly appre- ciated, causing an immense demand for it; and there is no country or port in the world where it will not sj>eedily be- come an article of extensive traffic and general utility, as it may be had recourse to in all cases of sickness, with confi- deuce in its simplicity, and in its power to produce relief.

IMPORTANT TESTIMONIAL. Copy of a Letter from Colonel Hawker," (the well- known Author on Guns and Shooting.") Longparish House, near Whitchurch, Hants, October 21st, 1846. Sir,—I cannot resist informing you of the extraor- dinary effect that I have experienced by taking only a few of your Lozenges. I had a cough for several weeks, that defied all that had been prescribed for me and yet I got completely rid of it by taking about half a small box of your Lozenges, which I find are the only ones that relieve the cough without deranging the sto- mach or digestive organs. I am, Sir, your humble servant, P. HAWKER. To Mr. Keating, 79, St. Paul's Church Yard, London. PROFESSIONAL TESTIMONIAL OF THEIR MERIT. From Mr. Murley, late a Practioner in Cheltenham. Huntley, Gloucestershire, 3rd Nov. 1848. Dear Keating—It affords me much pleasure to learn that the sale of your Cough Lozenges is so extensive. Being acquainted with their composition, I am fully persuaded of their efficacy for promoting gentle expecto- ration, and allayinsr pulmonary irritation. In cases of Catarrhal disorder, it is most desirable to combine a class of medicines which may calm without the deleterious effects of opium, and this desideratum is, I believe, effected by the ingredients in your Cough Lozenges. I well remember the very high opinion which a late emi- nent Surgeon of one of our London Hospitals had of this preparation he frequently tol l me thnt it was the only medicine which afforded relief to his wife, who had suffered for many years from Asthma. If you consider the testimony of a retired Practitioner (after thirty-six years of extensive practice) of any ad- vantage, you are quite welcome to avail yourself of this recommendation. With best wishes, Believe me, dear Keating, faithfully yours, S. H. MntLBy. To Mr. Keating, St. Paul's Church Yard.

"r ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. A WIDOW'S BREACH OF PROMISE. | NORTHERN CIRCUIT—LIVERPOOL.— KEPSUAW r. CASS.—This was an action for breach of promise of marriage brought by the plaintiff, a widower of G7, against Mrs. Maria Cass a widow of about 60.-Mr. Watson opened the case. The plaintiff had at one time considerable property, but railway speculations had diminished it the defendant owned the house in which she resided, and a few acres of land. In September last, Mr. Kershaw made advances to Mrs. Cass. He could not prove what had taken place on the first oc- casion, because the plaintiff and defendant only were present but there were several meetings between the parties at which overtures of marriage were made to Mrs. Cass, which were well received. Letters showing the courtship were then put in, also one in which the lady intimated that she had changed her mind, and was not disposed to marry.—J. A. Kershaw, son of the plaintiff, a man about 30, said his father was retired from business. He had been formerly a fruit dealer at Rochdale. Witness on the 17th November last, took tea with Mrs. Cass. He told her he was well pleased with his father's choice, and would like to see them married and comfortable. She thanked him, and said she would make an affectionate mother-in-law. He an- swered that he- would try to prove a dutiful son. (Laughter.) Witness again went to Mrs. Cals on the 20th December, with a gig, and brought Mrs. Rose and Mrs. Cass to his father's house. They dined there, it was agreed that they should be married by license on the first market Monday in January. The party stayed till night, and he then drove them home. Witness went on the Friday to take an inventory of Mrs. Cass's goods, when she said, I'm sorry I can't let you I must see your father first, as there is something between him and me." She told him to tell his father to come, which he did, accompanied by witness. His father pulled out a ring, and called on her to fulfil her pro- mise. (Laughter.) Mrs. Cass said she had heard he had had two wives before, and had behaved with cruelty to both his father said, Well, Mrs. Cass, I have conducted myself as a gentleman since I approached you I told you my property was encumbered, and, have never deceived you." She answered, You have not." Cross-examined: His father was not in tears when he left. (Laughter ) Did not know that his father, on dressing to visit the defendant, took care to pull the hairs out of his nose. (Roars of laughter.) Was not aware of any executions against his father. He himself was in the fruit business. He dealt in ve- vetables-Irish fruit. They had mutton for dinner the day the defendant and her sister dined with his father. Mrs. Shepherd, a washerwoman, was there to meet them. His father speculated in railways, and was sold up-turned out a stag. A surgeon's assistant, a shop boy, had recommended the lady to him. (Much laughter.)—Re-examined: His father had now about JE90 a year.- Mr. Serjeant Wilkins, for the defendant, represented the action as one of the most trumpery ever brought His learned friend had introduced the plain- tiff's son as a fruit merchant," but he was what they called in London a "costermonger." He dealt" in taties, turnips, yapples, and sparagrass." (Laughter.) The whole proceeding had been of the most business like nature. Then came the conclusion- Love they say is growing old, Arithmetically cold, Sells his favours now for gold." The plaintiff did not address the defendant 11 Light of my life, charm of my soul, and delight of my eye- (continued laughter)—but he said, I hope, Mrs. Cass, you have changed your mind?" "Oh, no, I have not." "Very well, then," he says, "I tender the ring -(laughter) -if you don't marry me, I have a son to come into the witness box, and I will bring an action for breach of promise against you." Did they suppose the plaintiff cared twopence about this widow ? His learned friend said, this was not one of those cases in which affection could be said to be like a rose, nipped in its bud !-an old worn out stump (Loud laughter.) The plaintiff wanted this old lady's company to keep his back warm (roars of laughter), and he wanted the old lady's purse to keep his stomach warm. Burns had said- Oh gie me the lass that has acres of charms, Oh gic me the lass with the weel stocked farms." The plaintiff said so too.—Mr. Justice Coleridge briefly summed up, and the jury, after a short consultation, found a verdict for the plaintiff-Damages one farthing. His lordship said, he would consider whether or not be would to depriv* the plaintiff of his costs. FORGED NOTES. A WITNESS COMMITTED. WESTERN man TtameA Davis and Byrne, were convictcd of having two E5 notes in their possession, knowing them to be forged. The way in which the possession came to light was curious. A letter was received addressed Mr. Lock, Post-office, Dorchester," and as the postmaster's na,,iie was Lock, he concluded it was for bun, opened it, c,zid found it to contain two forged notes, without a word being written on the subject. When the letter was subsequently called for, Davis, who applied along with Byrne, was given into custody, and a guilty knowledge was proved. Both prisoners practised the art of thimblerig at fairs and races. Whilst the case we3 pro- ceeding, Mr. Justice Williams was informed that Mrs. Watson, a respectable middle-aged woman, had refused to be sworn as a witness before the grand jury. She was brought into court, and the learned judge expos- tulated with her, giving her two hours to reconsider the matter, but she persisted in her refusal, founded upon religious scruples, and was committed to the county gaol! MURDER BY A MADMAN. MIDLAND clilcu,T.-DERBY.-H. StTelly, a member of a highly respectable family, was indicted for the wilful murder of S. Tomlinson, in a private asylum, kept by Dr. Brigstocke, Derby. Strelly and the deceased slept in the same room in different beds. Tke door was locked, and the keeper slept with other patients in an adjoining room. Between five and six in the morn- ing the keeper heard a noise in Strelly's room, and on taking a light discovered the deceased on the floor weltering in blood, and the prisoner standing in a corner. A lath taken from the prisoner's bed, with blood upon it, was found, and there seemed no doubt that as the deceased was dressing himself, the prisoner struck him with the lath.—" Not Guilty," on the gTound of insanity.—Mr. Justice Maule made some strong remarks upon the conduct of the proprietor of the asylum in allowing two insane persons to sleep in the same room without a keeper. THE WRECK OF THE LONDONDERRY STEAMER. After a trial which occupied two days at the Derry Assizes, Captain Johnston and the mates of the ill-fated Londonderry steamer were acquitted of the assault of Hannah Brennen and others, and of having caused her death by placing her and others in a place on board the Londonderry steamer, where they had not a suffi- ciency of air to preserve life; and that, while there, the said traversers neglected to pay her and others proper attention, and had thereby caused the death of the said Hannah Brennan." The learned Judge said that his learned colleague, Mr. Sheil, had requested him to state that he fully concurred with him (Judge Tnrrrns) in the verdict they had brought in. Some conversation then took place between the counsel for the defence and Judge Tonens, which had been called forth by several memorials addressed to the Judge from parties who sought to get their passage-money, which they stated they had lost, to enable them to go to America. The Judge said, that the representative of the Crown Soli- citor, Mr. M'Mahon, had kindly consented to inquire into the memorials, and to communicate with the Glas- gow Steain-packet Company on the subject.
IEXECUTION OF COMMONS FOR…
EXECUTION OF COMMONS FOR THE MURDER OF MAJOR MA HON. On Wednesday morning James Commons, who had been found guilty at the last assizes of Roscommon, was executed in front of the county gaol for the murder of Major Mahon. Previous to his execution, Commons made the following declaration As I, James Commons, am now to appear before a just and merciful God, I am anxious to make this my last declaration, hoping, through the merits of my Saviour suffering for me, that all my sins may be forgiven. I admit before God and man the justice of my sentence, and, as I expect forgiveness and pardon from a merciful Redeemer, ] forgive from my heart all my prosecutors and the whole world. 21st March, 1849. "JAMHS COMMONS. "Signed in presence of John L. Hackett, under sheriff; Matthew C. Browne, J.P.: Thomas Casseilv, surgeon; Jas. Nolan, local inspector." Michael Scallyand his wife, the formed aged over sixty years, and the latter about fifty, were executed at the same time for the wilful murder of Isabella Bren- nan, in March, 1848, by lirst strangling her, and then putting her in a basket, in which she was convened by j boat into the Shannon, near Roosky, and left there. They both made a similar acknowledgment of their uuilt a short time before the fatal bolt was drawn. A troop of the -11h Light Dragoons, and a company of the 31st Foot, from Athlone, with the company in town, and a strong police force, were in attendance. Nut more than 100 pel sons from the country attended. THE PLAINTIFF PRELATE.—The word versus appears so often in the law reports, in connexion with the name of the Bishop of Exeter, that after ages will perhaps be led to suppose that it was actually one of his Lordship's titles. There is probably not a single confessor or niar- tyr that has had so many trials as Bishop Pb:!JpOb Punch. in j AN EYE TO BUSINESS.—A temperance lecturer in Devonshire, a short time since, finished his discourse thus:—" Aud '»>" hearer*, why should anv of 'U dr'.nk kr(leiit -ly L ")t OCU C'.?.er • as any in the countM. at twopence A quail."
t MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE.
MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. Lord Clarendon is now in London. He had an inter- view with Lord John Russell on Thursday. The Court went into mourning on Thursday for the late King of Holland. To prevent injury to trade, the mourning is not to apply to the ensuing drawing-room to be held on the 29th of March. We understand it has been determined to add a sixth captain to every cavalry regiment in lndil. The following regiments have received orders to complete their rank and file to 1000 men each, viz. 26th, Cameronians, 1.5th, 30th, 41st, 47th, and 69th, and to hold themselves in readiness to embark for foreign service. Sir Wm. Heathcote, Bart. has retired from the repre- sentation of North Hants, in consequence of ill health Mr. John O'Connell, M.P has been appointed Hon. Secretary to the Repeal Association, Mr. Ray, the late active and efficient secretary, having resigned, in .con- sequence of receiving an appointment in a large mer- cantile establishment. Mr. O'Connell will have a sine- cure for some time to come. Mr. Truell, a young officer of the 28th Foot, was un- fortunately killed, whilst out hunting, in Wicklow, on Saturday last. Public prayers were offered up on Sunday last for the preservatidn of Sir John Franklyn and his crew in seve- ral of the churches in Dundee.
