      CHAMBERS' PHILOSOPHY REFUTED .

CHAMBERS , of Edinburgh , entitled the "Employer and Employed . " This valuable little work contains the most complete defence ofthe demands of the Working Classes for their £ ar share of the enormous wealth created hy Machinery , as well as a justification of Trades Unions . The * numerous appeals that have been made to Mr . O'Connor from nearly every part of the ldngdom for the publication , in pamphlet form , of those Dialogues that hare recently appeared in the Star , hare determined him to gratify what appears to be the almost unanimous wish of tho Labouring Classes .

      Complete in one ToL , neatly Bound in Cloth , A PRACTICAL WORK OS SMALL FARMS . Price Two Shillings and Sixpence . ST TStBBVB O ' COSHOB , ESQ . The desire of the author has been to furnish a valuable compendium at such a price as would enable every working man to become possessed of it . It contains all the practical instructions , together with Plates , de-Kribing Farm-house , Offices , Tank , Farm-yard , & c ; with particular information requisite for carrying out all the operations .- ' JUL—The above work may still be procured in numbers , price 66 V each . " I Lave , within the last few months , visited every part of France , and ! declare that I have seen more misery in cme street in Dublin than in all France ; the people are well clad , weR fed , and merry ; they are all employed on Small Fab « siff their own , or on equitable takings !"Tide Lord ClMcurrfs Letter in Homing Cironide , Oct . SO , 1843 . Those personsdesirous of bettering their condition and f becoming "Independent LaSmers " by entering the "Productive-labour" Market , win do well to read "A Xtactical Workon Small Farms , " by Feabgus O'Cokkob , Rft . It contains much useful information , invaluable to the parties for whom it was written ; and Old Farmers wiQ find many useful lessons in the new system of husbandry , which they have yet tolearn . The work displays great practical knowledge , and is written so that any one who reads may understand . Mr . O'Connor seems not to have used either the old or ' new nomenclature' in this work ; he has not buried his meaning in chemical technicalities , which -very few understand , but which most writers oa agriculture seem so desirous of using . Perhaps they do aot understand the practice of Farming so well as the theory ; and , therefore , mystify that which they cannot explain , "b y some long chemical term , which the plain reader may pass over as a "hard word , " hard to pronounce , and harder to understand when it is pronounced . The reader win find Out Mr . O'Connor has avoided all those hard names , and suited the language to the toilfog labourer , whose college is generally the workshop or , at best , the Sunday SchooL Though the work is written for holders of Small Farms , yet no Allotment Tenant ought to be without it ; the valuable information it contains respecting tilling and cropping is alike useful toattr '— Extract from , a Farmefs Letter . "This really useful little volume ought to he in the sands of every one at all connected with agricultural parsatts . ''—UogcFs WeeHy London Newspaper . "Although we feel no desire , in the language of the proud Peruvian , in contemplating what we hope to rejoice in , ihe contentment , prosperity , and comfort of our fellow men , to sxchum— " This , this is my work f nor is our object , as Mr . O'Connor declares his to be , "that each man who is willing to work may be independent of every other Eiau in the world for his daily bread , '' yet we can with much pleasure recognise in the book before us a powevid instrument for aiding in developing in man a i nch higher destiny than he has hitherto attained . "Mr Q'Oonnorshewsclearly , wliatwill soon be apparent to an who reflect deeply , that we are not left without the means ei obtaining not only all that is physically > requisitc for man ' s progress , but also that we may readily prodace what is apparently desirable ; for none who carefully peruse this work can doubt that a system of small farms , held by active and industrious labourers , would amply return , in exchange for healthful exertion , far more than is requisite to preserve physical strength . '' Healso shews thatsomethingmoiethan this is requisite to ensure happiness , for he says in page 121 , " I feel convinced that man can place no reliance whatever upon Ids fellow man , or a community of men , when circumstances operate upon his or their minds , the influence and effect of which would be stronger than any abstract notions of justice . For instance , if a community of labouring men purchase a quantity f land , and hire la . hour dor its cultivation , however just their intentions and pure their motives , they wHl nevertheless feel themselves justified in raising the price of the land , according to the improved value conferred upon it by the labour ofthe bind workman . This power of steadily trenching upon the rights of others is one of the greatest disadvantages against which the labourer has to contend ; and those tired by a community , at the end of tvrenty years would be in so better condition titan they were at starting ' , while tbe community of proprietors would have increased the value of their property twenry-fo'd ; that is , they would have robbed those labourers , Vy Mhose industry the value was increased , of nineteen shillings in the pound . " ' These remarks are powerful arguments in the sphere in which they are written , and if examined in their relation to the universal , they confirm the testimony that ! " The 2 arth is the lord ' s , aud aU that therein is ; I the roand world and they that dwell therein ; " for , ] after partaking freely of what is good for each order of creation , any self-appropriation , by whatever parties indulged is , is from eviL and will produce its consequence , , namely , rice , crime , and misery . "We can strongly recommend Mr . O'Connor's work to oar readers , containing a great amount of practical information on agriculture , which should be most popularly diffused .

      Ad00210

      - Fifth edition , revised and amended . ! The Lesso ns in these works are intended solely for the use of natives . They are divested , therefore , of aU those hair-breadth distinctions and unnecessary subdivisions in Aaalogy , which , if at aU useful , can only be useful to foreigners . The science of Grammar is disentangled in them from the folds of mysticism which have so long enshrouded it . The absurd and unmeaning technicalities which pervade aU other works on Grammararcexchanged : for terms which have a definite and precise meaning , illustrative of the things they represent . The Parts of . Speech are arranged on an entirely new principle , founded ' on a philosophical consideration of the nature of language . Th * necessary divisions and subdivisions are i rationally accounted for , an' 8 the principles of Universal Grammar demonstrated so fully that the meanest capacity may understand them as clearly as it understands that two and two make four . In Syntax , the formation ofthe English Language is ex- j clusively consulted , without any unnecessary reference to , other languages . A majority of tho numerous Rules given in most Grammars are shewn to be little better than i a heap of senseless tautology . The necessary Rules are ] demonstrated upon rational principles , and illustrated by a variety of examples . By the use ofthe fifteen lessons , and the accompanying exercises , anyone may , in a few weeks , acquire a good knowledge of Grammar , without any of the disgusting drudgery which , under the present system , prevents nine out often from ever acquiring a knowledge of Grammar at all . / "A competent Grammatical knowledge of our own language is the true basis on which all literature ought to j rest . "—Bishop Louth . \ " Mr . Hilliscvidentlyanoriginal thinker . He attacks with ability and success , the existing system of English I Grammar , and points out the absurdities with which it is ' encumbered . Justly condemning the too frequent prac-I tice of making pupils commit portions of Grammar to me . ! more a stasks , he maintains that the only proper Way to ; the memoir is through the understanding ............ It is ' but justice to him to say that , in a few pages , he gives a ; more clear and comprehensive view of the Structure of the English language than can be found in some very elaborate works . "—Literary Gazette . " Mr . Hill has discharged his task with considerable i ability and no person can peruse his hooks with any-; tiling like attention , without obtaining a clear andsum-] cient estimate of the construction and laws of his vernaj cular tongue . "—Leeds Tw »» . i" A concise philosophical and lucid exposition of the principles on which ti" language of Milton and Shakspeare rests . "—Brad o d Obserter . " . It is calculated to give the student a correct idea of Grammatical construction—of the analogies of the lanj guage—and of the nature' of the various parts of speech . It is simple , bat sot mean ; clear , bnt not diffuse ; aud there are few works in which the first principles of Grammar are better explained or more ably followed up . "York Clironide . " —— The method he has adopted to convey his lessons is the least repulsive to a learner that we have yet seen , not excepting that of Mr . Cobbett ......... the whole seems to be intended as a mental machine to abbreviate the labour ofthe inmdV —fiftM-gote iffierotor .

EXTRACT of aletterfrom John Martin , Esq ., Chronicle Office , Tobago , West Indies : — t February 4 th , 1845 . l To Professor HoUoway . ' Sir , —I beg to inform you that the inhabitants of this island , especially those who cannot afford to employ medical gentlemen , are very anxious of having your astonishing 1 medicines within their reach , from the immense benefits some of them have derived from their use , as they have been found here , iu several cases , to cure sores and ulcers of the most malignant aud desperate kind . One gentleman in this island , who had , I believe , about fifty running ulcers -about bis legs , arms , and body , who had tried all other medicines before the arrival of yours , but aU of which did him no good ; but yours cured him in about six weeks , and he is now , by their means alone , quite restored to health and rigour . ( Signed ) JohnMabtin . Piles , fistulas , and bcarings-dotm . A Remabeabie Cube sr these Pius and Oiathest . —A half-pay lieutenant , lately residing at St . Heller's , Jersy , whose name by request is omitted , had for three years suffered from piles and fistula , besides a general bearing down , of the most distressing nature . He had twice undergone an operation , but to no purpose , and at last gave himself up to despair . Yet , notwithstanding this complication of complaints , together with a debilitated constitution , he was completely cured of aU his infirmities , and restored to the full enjoyment of health by these justly renowned medicines , when every other means bad failed . Extraordinary Care in the West Indies , of Leprosy , ani other direful skin diseases . June 3 rd , 1814 . Mr . Lewis Reedon , of Georgetown , Demerara , writes , under the above date , that Holioway's Pills and Ointment have cured bad legs that no doctor could manage , ulcers and sores that were of the most dreadful description , as likewise leprosy , blotches , scales , and other skin diseases of the most frightful nature , and that the cures effected there by these wonderful medicines are so numerous and extraordinary as to astonish the whole population . Cancered Breast . —A . Wonderful Circumstance . Copy of a Letter from Richard Bull , bootmaker , Tatton , near Southampton : — February » th , 1815 . To Professor HoUoway . Sir , —The Lord has permitted to be wrought a wonderful cure of cancers or abcesses , of twelve years' standing , in my wife ' s breast . In the latter part of the time , eleven wounds were open at once . The faculty declared the case i as past cure , several pieces of bone had come away , and I i expected that my poor wife would soou have been taken from me . It was then that a friend recommended the use of your pills and ointment , which , to' our utter astonishment , in the space of about three months , healed " up the breast as soundly as ever it was in her life . 1 shall ever remain , Your most grateful and obedient servant , ( Signed ) Richabd Boil . Whcedng on Oie Chest and Sliorbiess of Breath . Copy of a Letter from Mr . Jeremiah Casey , No . 1 , Compton-place , Compton-street , Brunswick-square , London , April 25 th , 1845 : — To Professor HoUoway . Sir , —I beg to inform you that I believe I had been , for more than three years , one ofthe greatest sufferers iu the world with chronic asthma . For weeks together my breath was frequently so short that I was afraid every moment of being choked with phlegm . I never went into a bed ; very often , indeed , I have been obliged to pass the night without being able to recline sufficiently to lay my head on a table , lest I should be suffocated . No one thought I should live over the winter , nor did I expect it myself ; but I am happy to say that I am now able to work from morning to night , and that I sleep as well as ever I did in my life ; and this miracle ( I may say ) was effected by rubbing your invaluable ointment twice a day into my chest , and taking ten of your pills at bedtime , and ten again in the morning , for about three months . ( Signed ) Jemhiah Casey . In afl Diseases of ihe Skis , bad legs , old wounds and ulcers , bad breasts , sore nipples , stony and ulcerated cancers , tumours , swellings , gout , rheumatism , and lumbago , likewise in cases of Piles , Holioway ' s Puis in aU the above cases , ought to be used with the Ointment ; as by this means cures wOl be effected with a much greater certainty , and in half the time that it would require by using the Ointment alone . The Ointment is proved to be a certain remedy for the bite of moschetoes , sand-flies , chiego-foot , yaws , coco-bay , and aU skin diseases common to the East and West Indies , and other tropicid climes . Burns , Scalds , Chilblains , Chapped Hands and Lips , also Bunions and Soft Corns , wiU be immediately cured by the use ofthe Ointment .

      PARR'S LIFE PILLS . READ the following letter from Mr . W . Alexander , Bookseller , Yarmouth : — Great Yarmouth , March 27 ; 1815 . Gentlemen , —Being recently at Norwich , I called upon a gentleman at his request . He said , having seen your name in a newspaper as an agent for the sale of PARR'S PILLS , and also letters addressed to you testifying their efficacy in the cure of various complaints , I resolved to try them . I had been very unwell for two or three years , my stomach much out of order , and I constantly felt a painful difficulty in breathing ; I employed two medical gentlemen , and took a great quantity of medicine , but derived no benefit ; on the contrary , I found myself daily declining and getting weaker , so that I could scarcely walk from one street to another ; indeed I was in a melancholy desponding state . Accordingly , I purchased a box , aud took them as directed . At the end of a week 1 was much better , having taken , I think , only eighteen pills ; consequently , I continued taking them regularly , arid when I had taken two boxes and a half , I became quite well , and to this day I have enjoyed life , having now good health and good spirits . It ' , however , I feel any slight indisposition , I have recourse to the medicine I have so much reason to prize , which restores me to my usual good health . This gentleman wished his case to be made public , although for obvious reasons he could uot authorise me to give his name . This timid , perhaps In some cases , prudent cautiousness is not uncommon . A neighbouring gentleman has several times admitted to me that he derives great benefit from the occasional use of Parr ' s medicines , but wiU uot permit me to mention it to any one , am , dear Sir , yours , respectfully , WILLIAM ALEXANDER . P . S . The Pills have entirely removed the cough and Asthma . MR . HACKETT , THE CELEBRATE > AMERICAN ACTOR , now performing in this country , gave the following important testimonial to the efficacy of PARR'S LIFE PILLS before leaving for America ;—To the Proprietors of PARR'S LIFE PILLS . Sirs , —Having used PARR'S LIFE PILLS on several occasions when attacked by violent Bilious complaints , and having been fully satisfied of their efficacy , I hog leave In justice to you , as proprietors of the medicine , to testify as much . Yours , respectfully , Long Island , Nov . 9 , 1814 . Wm . H . Hackett . Ifjcf The extraordinary effect of this medicine is the wonder of the age j it has been tried by hundreds of thousands as an aperient , and has in every [ instance done good ; it has never in the slightest degree impaired the most delicate constitution .

      THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM , Is a gentle stimulant and renovator of tho impaired functions of life , and is exclusively directed to the cure of such complaints as arise from a disorganization of the Generative System , whether constitutional or acquired , loss of sexual power , and debility arising from Syphilitic disease ; and is calculated to afford decided relief to those who , by early indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened the powers of their system , and fallen into a state of chronic debility , by wluch the constitution is left in a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept up which places the individual in a state of anxiety for the remainder of life . The consequences arising from this dangerous practice , are not confined to its pure physical result , but branch to moral ones ; leading the excited deviating mind into a fertile field of seducive error—into a gradual but total degradation of manhood—into a pernicious application of those inherent rights which nature wisely instituted for the preservation of her species ; bringing on premature decrepitude , and all the habitudes of old age .

      DR . ALLEN'S ANTISCORBUTIC MEDICINE . The only Safe and Effectual Cure for Scurvy . DR . ALLEN being anxious that those suffering from disease should derive the benefit of his long , extcn . sive , and successful practice , calls the attention of the afllictcd to his " Celebrated Anti-scorbutic Drops , " which ( in thousands of instances ) have been proved infinitely superior to all other preparations in effecting a speed y aild radical euro of the following complaints , namelytumours , enlargement of the joints and glands , inveterate ulcers , cancers , ulcerated sore legs ( no matter of how long standing ) , boils , kings' evil , scald heads , ring-worms , pimples in the face and other parts of the body , itch , and all diseases of the skin . In rheumatism , gout , rheumatic gout , lumbago , ticdoloreux , and all painful affections of the nerves in any part of the bod } -, and in all diseases arising from obstructed perspiration , and impurities of the blood , they are the only remedy to be relied on ; as they prevent the formation and accumulation of all injurious humours , purify the Wood , and all the fluids , promote the secretions , assist digestion , and strengthen and invigorate the whole system . Whether the malady be of recent occurrence or of pro . traded duration , Dr . A . ' s medicine is a sure remedy , as its opcratiou is such as to entirely expel the subtle and virulent poisons of the abovenamed diseases ; it counter , acts the formation of acrid and injurious humours , and invigorates the constitution— in short , it strikes at , and wholly destroys , the boot ofthe disease : the cause is permanently removed and the effects naturally cease to exist . That the sufferer may not remain ignorant of the real nature of the complaint under which he ( or she ) may lahour , Dr , A . begs to lay before them the following symptoms . In the first stage of this disease its risible effects arc a wearying pain seizing the joints and muscles , attended with a wasting of the legs and loins . In the second stage the gums swell , grow- painful , hot , and irritable , and bleed upon the slightest pressure : the roots of the teeth become bare and loose , and the breath nauseous . In the third stage the gums grow putrid , the teeth black and rotten , the subl' mgular veins become varicose , and the breath cadaverous ; foetid blood distils from the lips , gums , mouth , nose , lungs , stomach , liver , spleen , pancras , intestines , womb , kidneys , & c , scabs and ulcers break out iu all parts of the body , particularly the legs aud arms ; the joint bones and viscera become morbid . In the fourth stage puirid eruptions and spotted fevers ensue , which end in atrophy , or" else are followed by diorhoea , dysentery , dropsy , consumption , palsy , contractions , melancholy , and all the long and direful train of nervous disorders , to describe which would fill a volume . Dr . A . desires that those persons taking his medicine will be careful in attending to the subjoined directions . For Internal Cases . Two ofthe Pills to he taken night and morning , by persons above the age of fourteen years , and two tea-spoonsful of the Drops at eleven and three o ' clock ; for all persons under fourteen years half the quantity , In slight cases the Pills alone will effect a cure . For External Cases . Where tho eruption is slight tha parts to be bathed twice a day with the Lotion , a little of the Ointment may be applied if found necessary ; then the Pills and Drops to be taken as above . For those who have sores the parts to be first washed with soft soap and water , then supply the Lotion and the Pills and Drops a ; above . To hasten a . Cureiu long standing Cases the Drops may be taken in a wine glassful of the following decoction , Take of sharp pointed dock roots half a pound and two quarts of water boiled down to one quart , and then strain it ; add thereto when cold a wine glassful of Brandy , and then bottle it for use .

      Dr . Allen begs to observe that ho has been consulted Within the last twelve months by hundreds of individuals labouring under a disagreeable complaint greatly resembling the itch , aud often taken for it . This com ' - plaint , ( which is a species of scurvy , ) if allowed to proceed , often lays the foundation of worse diseases in the system . Those therefore who are so afflicted will do well to consult the Doctor , and uot tamper with itch ointments , & c „ which rather aggravate than lessen the complaint . In all such cases a . Bottle of Drops and a B » x of the Anti . scorbutic Ointment are sufficient to effect a cure .

Williams , of Leak Horn End , near Boston , was for several years afflicted with this dreadful disease ; she had a large ulcer under each eye , three on the neck and left shoulder , one on each wrist , and a very large one on the leg , beside tumours on other parts of the body ; each ulcer discharged an acrid and fetid humour , which weakened and debilitated her whole frame : —She had spent pounds without receiving the least benefit , and had given up all hope of recovery ; being induced by a lady ( whose dtiughter Dr , Allen had cured of scurvy ) , to apply to him , she was perfectly cured in about ten weeks , and although it is six years ago , she has never had the least return of the disease , but been in perfect health ever since .

A child of Mrs . LyaU ' s , ofToynton , was long afflicted with a dreadful eruption , all over its heart , body , and limbs , which was one entire mass of scab . —She applied the mcu'icinc for one month , at the end of which the child was perfectly cured .
