The brother of a patient of his applied to Mr Abernethy for advice .- He gave him a prescription , and these pills are prepared accurately from that prescription . The patient's complaint was a nervous oae , nnd it " was utterly impossible tor any one to be in a worse nonditiou than he was ; muscular power was « lso lost in souieparts , and bis legs fairly tottered under bim . He had a box ef the pills prepared , and tha effects were all but miraculous ; for not only did the nervousness leave him , but muscular power returned to all parts deficient of it .

' Sir , —Having suffered most _dreadfu'ly for tbe last six years from repeated attacks of the gout , and receiving no benefit from the best medical advice I could obtain , I was induced , about six weeks ago , to try a box of Blair ' s Gout and Rheumatic Pills . When I commenced taking them , wliich was in the afternoon , my feet and elbows were very much swollen and inflamed ; I was _' _suffering the most intense . agony , I had that night sound and refreshing sleep , aud nwoko in the morning comparatively free from pain ; and before I had finished tbe box , I never was better in my life . They have not only entirely removed the gout , but have also very much improved my general health . I have since recommended them to four individuals , who have suffered much from gout nnd rheumatism ; and they all speak highly of tbe benefit they have received from tbem . If _> ou think my case worthy of insertion amongst the many cures effected by your wondorful medicine , you are at perfect liberty to publish it . — am s . r , yours respectfully , J . J . Wilson . ' The above _testimonal exhibits tbe never-failing effects of this valuable medicine which affords' to the afflicted with gout , rheumatism , lumbago , sciatica , and all analagous complaints , speedy and certain relief . They require neithe ? confinement nor attention of any kind , and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach , brain , or other vital part .

      TRADES' MOVEMENTS . Mb Lbnnegaw and thb _Mimtna' _Umoif . —It . w _» l probably be remembered by those who take sn into rest in tho matter ,- that Mr Lennegan stated , in tn < course of _thedueuasion at Wigan , thatthe lecturers department of the Miners' Association alone cos £ 187 , and upwards , ih the short period of tw < months . In proof of this statement he refers tt what he pleases to designate an infamous document namely , the balance sheet of the association . This document ia before me while I write , and I find , upoi strict examination of its contents , that the whole ol the expenditure , including the payment of severs _, debts , together with , the salaries of th © _Executive Committee , then consisting of five individuals , doe * not reach the amount specified by nearly £ 50 . Mi . „ . _* , -, _TT _?* rT _? _KTWC

      Lennegan knows this , too ; and in order to make good his position , he has lugged in a quantity of ex traneous matter ; _snch as the Executive and _travellmi committee being composed of tho name _peragnu , theii drawing money from two funds , deputations by Johi Berry and others ; the balance sheet purporting t < be a two months' one , while it only contains a eh weeks' accounts—and concludes a most miaerabh attempt to Bhirk the question by _assorting that hi has proved his statement . Bat softly , Mr _Lennegan you have not . Yob set out with asserting tbat leo turing alone cost the Miners' Association upward of £ 187 . I told yeu this statement was utterl _; without foundation . I again repeat it , and def _,

      you to prove the contrary . With respect to you ; statement about the balance sheet being , in reality only a six weeka' one , I can only Bay , tbat you an involving yourself more deeply in the odiousness o either wilfully perverting the truth , or writing de liberate falsehoods . As regards _Meadowa , Cheetbam Marsh , and \ Berrv , their characters will bear as stric an investigation , and I believe will be proved a litth jnore unimpeachable than your own .

Before ths reduction ths workmei were only receiving four shillings per _doxen fo making tbe article , and yet Mr Carver feols dispose ) to take sixpence per dozen off , thus leaving three shil lings and sixpence per dozen , or just threepenci halfpenny a shirt ; and if he succeeds , on some of th < finer gauges there will be a reduction of one shill / _nj per dozen . Tbe workmen are determined to resis

      this reduction by all the means in their power , ant will submit themselves to the union bastile rathe ; than work at the bated price . One of Mr Carver ' i workmen residing at Arnold , haa been lately visitec by soma Christian Mends ; ke has a . large family they bad neither blanket nor sheet to cover thorn ,-nnthing to eat in the house , nor had they tasted any thing for the day except water porridge ; the wifi was in a dreadful state of illness , _brought on for thi want of bread and other common necessaries of life Meetings have been held , and deputations both o workmen and respectable tradesmen , have waitec upon Mr Carver to induce him to give the origina price : the deputation laid before him the _distresses condition of his workmen at the present time , and tbat by this reduction their poverty and miser would be increased . lie informed the deputation that he was sorry for them—tbat he sympathised

      with them greatly , —but that he could get goods made cheaper than his hands were making thera , and it his workmen oeuld not afford to work at the reduced price the frames must stand still . Thus ho would starve tbe poor fellows into compliance . A large and spirited meeting was held on Monday last , and deputations ol the workmen from Arnold and Nottingham waited again upon Mr Carver , who still persisted in the reduction . Another meeting waa held in the evening , and the following resolutions were unanimously passed : — ' That we , the shirt and drawer hands working for Mr Carver , do cease worh until ho consents to give the original price . ' ' That we who are working for other manufacturers and whe are receiving the full price do pay one shilling pes frame , weekly , while the strike continues toward ' supporting the hands on strike . ' ' That we , the workmen of Mr Carver , __ _pledj- > e ourselves not to paj any frame rent for the time .

      Carlisle . —Shoemakers Strike . —A strike has taken place here against a reduction of wages offered by Thomas Drinkall , master boot and shoemaker , to his workmen . A reduction of sixpence per pair on some articles , but on others considerably more . This reduction the men are determined to resist . The reason that we wish this te be mado publie ia , thai he has been endeavouring to get men from other places , and we wish to put them upon their guard so as they may not be deceived by false statements . fie has only up to this time succeeded in obtaining one man , named shepperd , whose nobbing propensities are well known to the _shopmites of _Nswcastle and many other places . Rochdale . —Appeal to the card room operatives now on strike , to the factory operatives of Lanoa .

      shire . —Fellow "Workmen , —Arouse from your apathy and inactivity , and assist your brethren of Bury in their present struggle , for depend upon it , should they be compelled to submit , tbe reduction will be carried out through every town and in every branch of factory operatives where they havenota union to prevent it . Unite , then , and become members of the National Association of United Trades , be no longer the willing slaves ofunfeeling manufacturers , and the tools of merciless speculators . The battering of your condition lies in your own hands . The condition ofthe working classes has become one of the great questions of the aee . and . if they will bestir themselves earnestly and enthusiastically to emancipate themselves , the work will be done , if not , they will for ever remain a despised and neglected body .

      _Clithbroe . —A oerrespondent informs us that the wages of the journeymen block printers is reduced lis . in the pound to what they were receiving in October last ; their destitute condition is unparalleled , in consequence of the reduction of their wages , and the present depression of trade . To THE _PaCTOHT OpBBAWVES IN THE _MaNUPACtukino Distbiots ot _Lancasbibe . — Friends and Fellow Workmen , —We , the Card Room Hands , Piecers , Throstle Spinners , Winders , and Warpers , late in the employ of Messrs Charles Openshaw and _Ssns , in appealing to you for support in our present struggle , should not be justified unless we laid before yeu a plain statement of our grievances . The reduction we were asked to submit to was twelve and a half per cent . —but at a subsequent interview with our employers , a reduction often percent , was proposed , which we refused to accept , aad consequently are cast upon your sympathies . We deeply lament

      having to take these steps during the present depression of . trade ; but the very great reduction proposed in our earnings is , in itself , a sufficient justification . The remuneration of tho labourer is already too small to admit of any reduction being wrung _fiom him . Too much attention cannot be paid to that by which a man earns bis bread for , as his labour is all that ha ha 9 to dispose of , upon its proper reward depends his very existence . There always were , and are now , persons whose _avariceleads them to forget their fellow creatures ; and it is for protection against the encroachments of these that wo unite . We trust that you will assist us in our struggle , for it depends upon the issue , whether you will not also have to submit to a reduction ; therefore , while you are assisting us ynu are benofiting yourselves . —By order of Thb Committee . _—Bwy , February 23 rd , 184 S .

      FRENCH REVOLUTION . ( From tht 'Edinburgh WeeMy Express ?) Every observer of tbe French political world nuut have long been prepared for eventful changes in that countrv ; but we must _eonfess that we hare been in more senses _thsn one , electrified by the _change which bave so rapidly succeeded each other in the capital . The disgraceful and scandalous exposures which have been made—the corrupt practices of the government—the perfidy and insolent _defianceof Guizot , and the avarice and deception of Louis Philippe , have all brought down retributive jus tice from the will of a brave , insulted , and indignant people . Again , the brave National Guard of Paris have demonstrated the impossibility of governing a people

      by brute force , by cannon , or by fortifications . They willed that right should not be usurped by might , nor public opinion suppressed by incarceration . The press has nobly vindicated its insulted honour and violated'freedom . Still everything has been calmly , firmly , boldly done ; and the very moderation of the people justifies the changes they have enforced , aa well as . theirright to make them . All hail 1 the Parisian phalanx of democracy—all hail ! the brave men of Paris . Now liberty beckons you onward in a glorious career . ' Let France now set Europe an immortal example of popular integrity , justice , and social and political redemption ; and if she holds fast what she has got , Louis Phili ppe may not have lived in vain for the liberty of the world .

      Thb Builders Of The Barricanks.—The Men ...

      Thb Builders of the BARRicAnKS . —The men looked pale—but resolute and fearless . Some uttered not a word , but . silently and rapidly worked at getting up the paving stones . Some mounted on the lamp-posts waving their hats and exeiting the mob . Some laughed , and seemed to act under the effect ol an excitement more or less pleasurable . Amongst them I noticed the most opposite extremes , in point of aspect ; amongst fresh handsome faces appeared visages the most scowling I ever beheld . Some were well armed and had abundance of ammunition—ene man told me he had passed the whole of the previous night making cartridges-rel ying on the pillage of a gun shop to supply him with a gun . The majority were , however , scantily supplied—on the average , I think , they bad not enough for a dezen rounds . Several were mere boys of fifteen or sixteen : these were among the most active ai . d eager , if not the most resolute . I had but a few minutes for

      observationfor fa troop of horsemen galloped down the street , sweeping everything before them . In the Rue Gruntet and St Martin , murderous conflicts took place acroaa the barricades . Tho soldier's wero marched up to thera to destroy them , and received the fire of the mob at tho very mouth of the gunsreturning it in the same way . In all the groups in whieh I have mixed the cry is for a leader—the people are almost as furious with tho Opposition for deserting them , as with the ministry for bringing out the troops against tbem . Very few have any distinct idea what they are | fiihting for . They reply , ' Reform . ' but if you ask ' what reform V they say — ' Mais la Reforme quoi 1 They are hungry and miserable , and they fight under the influence of a blind instinct , that for them any change must be ad _« vantageous—of a vague but bitter animosity against their oppressors—goaded to exasperation at the sight of the troops ,

      Thb _Bors op Paris . —Amidst all this bloodshed the scene is not without its humours . On the Bou * levards the gamin de Paris is in great force , and distinguishes himself by hia usual antics . There ia one perched in every tree—perched among the branches , with outspread arms , in the most grotesque attitudes , grinning and hooting , surveying and dominating the tumult—swaying and balancing their little impish bodies and heads in a state of indescribable excitement . Their piercing voices echo shrilly the gruff roar ef the raging tumult below ; and they dare , by insult and look , the municipal guards , evea while they pass with their bayonets , almost grazing tha young rascals . ( Juriositt _OvuHCOniKtf Fbar . —One very remarkable circumstance tbat I have noticed is the

      _fearlessnessof the women , who crowd into the thick of the tumult , yelling and tossing their arms , and often remain when numbers of the men have given ground . The Boulevards swarm with lorettes _, elegantly dressed , whe watoh the movements of the troops , and mix in the groups inquiring and repeating the news with the utmost curiosity and interest . A gentleman to whom I told this remarked he had been struck with tbo same fact , Ue said that he and a friend were watching the conflict at a barricade in the Rue St Martin , and they were surrounded by about twenty work girls , probably sempstresses . Suddenly a dis .

      charge of muskets took place , and the bullets flew whistling past , and rattled against the walls immediately over their heads . They all fled , and took refuge under a neighbouring archway ; but the firing having ceased , the girls peeped out cautiously , aad went forth one by ene , till at last he and his friend were lefc alone . ' We thought , ' he added , _laughinj , that as all the women had gone , we might venture torth again , and accordingl y we did , ' DSEA 9 B among Cahle . —A dangerous _diseais among cattle has broken out in the lower parts of the counter of Westmorland .
