The object of the Proprietor in csteMisliin & _tbeA _' _or _tie ™ Star was to furnish a fearless and faithful organ for the -representatipn of the Labouring Classes , whose interests from time immemorial have been shamelessly neglected . The rcmo-falof the fifflr to London has enabled its conauctors to supply the reader with the latest intelligence , as well as the most interesting news ; in consequence of which its number of readers have materially increased in the Jletronolis , and its country circulation can be ei _ ualled by few , even the most extensively circulated Metropolitan

      newsnapers . -, ' ,-, From the extensive circulation of the Aorthem Star , together with the fact that it is read by all classes of society as the organ ofthe movement party , Advertisers will find it to be a medium of comrnuuication with the public at _Jarge worth notice . Books and Publications for review must he addressed ( post paid ) to thc Editor , 340 , Strand , London .

      _. _^ . - CHAMBERS' PHILOSOPHY REFUTED . Just published Price Fourpence ( forming a Pamphlet of SO pages demy 8 vo ., in a stiff wrapper ) , THE THIRD EDITION OF A TVLL and COMPLETE JtEFUTATION of the PHILOSOPHY contained m a TRACT recently published by the MESSRS . CHAMBERS , of Edinburgh , entitled the " Employer and Employed . - " This -valuable little work contains the most complete defence of the demands of the Working Classes for their fair share of the enormous wealth created by 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 kingdom for the publication , in pamphlet form , of those Dialogues that have recently appeared in the Star , have determined him to gratify what appears to be thc almost unanimous wish ofthe Labouring Classes . "The Employer and the Employed , " * * b y Feargus O'Connor , * * beats anything even of its author ' s . —Economist .

      Complete in one Vol ., neatly Bound in Cloth , A PItACTICAL WORK OX SMALL FARMS . Pries Two Shillings and Sixpence . BT rEJBG-CS O ' _COSSOK , 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 . _-B tlfe practical instructions , together with Plates , de-Ecribin' - ; Parm-honse . Offices , Tank , Farm-yard , < fcc . ; with particular information requisite ¦ " t \> r carryuig out all the operations . N . B . —The above work may still _be-procured in numbers , price Cd . each . " I have , within the last few months , visited every part Of Prance , and I declare that I have seen more misery in one street in Dublin than in all Prance ; the people are ¦ weU dad , weU fed , aud merry ; they are all employed on Small Pabms of their own , or on equitable takings 1 "Vide Lord Cloncarry ' s Letter in Morning Cironkle _, Oct 5 th , 1843 .

      Those persons desirous of bettering their condition and of becoming "Independent Labourers , " by entering the "Productive-labour" Market , will do well to read "A Practical Work on Small Farm =, " by _F-usccs O'Conkoe , Esq . it contains much useful information , invaluahleto the parties for whom it was written " ; and Old Farmers will find many useful lessons in the new -System of husbandry , which they have yet to learn . 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 wliich most writers on agriculture seem so desirous of using . Perhaps they do not understand ihe practice of Fanning so WCR as ¦ the theory ; and , therefore , mystify that which they cannot explain , by some long chemical term , which the plain reader may pass over as a "hard word , " hard to pronounce , and harder to understand when i * is pronounced . The reader ivill find that Mr . O'Connor has avoided an those hard names , and suited the language to the toiling labourer , whose coUege 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 to all . "—Extract from a Farmer ' s Letter . " This really -useful little volume ought to be in the hands of every one at all connected rath agricultural _pin-snuV _* —Boyd ' s _IFeeHj * London Newspaper .

      " Although we feel no desire , in the language of the p-fond Peruvian , in contemplating what we hope to rejoice in , the contentment , prosperity , and comfort of our fellow men , to exclaim— " This , this is my work f nor is . our object , as Mr . O'Connor declares his to be , "that each man who is vrilling to work may be independent of every other man in the world for his daily bread , ' * yet we can with much pleasure -recognise in the hook before us a powerful instrument for aiding in developing in man a _-sauch higher destiny than he has hitherto attained . "Mr O'Connor shews clearly , whatwillsoonbeapparen t « o aU who reflect deepl y , that we are not left without the - deans of obtaining not only aR that-is physically requisite for man ' s progress , but also that we may readily prodace what is apparently desirable ; for none who carefully peruse this work can doubt tbat a system of small -farms , held by active and industrious labourers , would amply return , in _esrhnuge for healtbfal exertion , far more than is requisite to preserve physical strength .

      * ' He also shews that something-more than this is requisite to ensure happiness , for he says in page 121 , " I feel Convinced that -man can place no reliance whatever upon Ms 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 of land , and hire lahour for its cultivation , however just their intentions and pure their motives , they -will nevertheless feel themselves justified in raising the price ofthe land , according to the improved value conferred upon it by the labour of the hired 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 j _Eired . by a community , at the end of twenty years would be in no better condition than they were at starting , while Ihe community of proprietor's would have increased the value of their property twenty-fold ; that is , they would have robbed those labourers , by whose 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 earth is the Lord ' s , and aU that therein is ; the round world aud they that dwell therein f for , after _partalimg freely of what is good for eaeh order of creation , any self-appropriation , by whatever parties indulged in , is from evil , and will produce its consequence , namely , -rice , crime , and misery . " TTe can strongly recommend Mr . O'Connor ' s work to our readers , containing a great amount of practical information on agriculture , which should be mostpopularly difiused . - *'—Coneordiwm Gazette .

      Price Two Shillings. Fifteen Lessons On ...

      Price Two Shillings . FIFTEEN LESSONS on the ANALOGY and SYNTAX of the ENGLISH LANGUAGE , for the use of adult persons who have neglected the study of Grammar . By Wm . Hill .

      Fifth edition , revised and amended . The Lessons in these works are intended solely for the use of nativps . They are divested , therefore , of all those hair-breadth distinctions and unnecessary subdivisions in Analogy , which , if at all 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 whicli pervade all other works on Grammar areexchanged 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 . The necessary divisions and subdivisions are rationally accounted for , and 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 of _the- _^ ii _^ Ztsftian _^ _Majre is exclusively consulted , without any unnecessary reference to other languages . A majority of the numerous Rules g iven in most Grammars are shewn to be little better than a heap of senseless tautology . The necessaiy Rules are demonstrated upon rational principles , and illustrated by a variety of examples .

      By the use ofthe fifteen lessons , and the accompanying exercises , any one 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 of ten 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 rest" —Bishop Lowth . " Mr . Hill is evidently an original thinker . He attacks , with ability and success , the existing system of English Grammar , and points out the absurdities with which it is encumbered . Justly condemning the too frequent practice of making pupils commit portions of Grammar to memory as tasks , he maintains that the only proper way to the memory is through the understanding Itis 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 . HU 1 has discharged his task with considerable ability and no person can peruse his books with anything like attention , without obtaining a clear and sufficient estimate ofthe construction and laws " of his' vernacular tongue . "—Leeds Times . " A concise philosophical and lucid exposition of the principles on which the language of Milton and Shakspeare rests . "—Bradford Observer .

      " It is calculated to give the student a correct idea of Grammatical construction—of the analogies of the language—and ofthe nature of the various parts of speech , It is simple , but not mean ; clear , bnt not diffuse ; and there are few works in which the first principles of Grammar are better explained or more ably followed up . ""font ; Clironiele . " 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 of the mind . "—Glasgow Liberator .

      " The various forms of bodily and mental weakness , incapacity , suffering , and disease , faithfully delineated in this cautiously written and practical work , ave almost unknown , generally misunderstood , and treated on principles correspondingly erroneous aud superficial , by the present race of medical practitioners . Hence the necessity for the publication of a timely safeguard , a silent yet friendly monitor ¦ or , where debility has made threatening inroads , the means of escape and the certainty of restoration . The evils to which the book adverts are extensive and identical in their secret and hidden origin , and there are none to whom , as parents , guardians , heads of families , and especially of public schools , is confided the care of young people , who ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and those salutary cautions this work is intended to convey . Not only are the most delicate forms of generative debility neglected by the family physician , but they require for their safe management thc exclusive study of a life entirely abstracted from the routine of general practice , and ( ns in other depart ; ments of the profession ] attentively concentrated in the daily arid long-continued observation requisite for the correct treatment of Bexual infirmities . I . ' "If we consider the topics touched npon either in a moral or social view , we find the interests and welfare of mankind Beriously involved . The effects of licentious , indiscriminate , and secret indulgence in certain practices , are described with an accuracy and force which display at once profound reflection and extensive practical experience . "—27 _ie Planet .

      " The best of all friends is the Professional Friend , and in no shape can he be consulted with greater safety and secrecy than in' Lucas on _Jfotili ; Vigour . ' The initiation into vicious indulgence—its progress—its results in both sexes , are given with faithful , but alas ! for human nature , with afflicting truth . However , the authors have not exposed the evil without affording a remedy . It shows how' Manly Vigour' temporarily impaired , and mental and physical emasculation , produced by uncontrolled indulgence of the passions , can be restored ; how the sufferer , who has pined in anguish from the consequences of early indiscretion—afraid almost to encounter bis fellowman , can regain the vigour of health and moral courage . The work is written in a concise and perspicuous style , displaying how often fond parents are deceived by the outward physical appearance of their youthful offspring ; how the attenuation of the frame , palpitation ofthe heart , derangement of the nervous system , cough , indigestion , and a train of symptoms indicative of consumption or general decny , are often ascribed to wrong causes ; and instead of being the natural results of congenital debility or disease , nro the consequences of an alluring and pernicious practice , alike destructive to thc mind and body . "Bell's New Weekly Messenger .

      " Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for the expression of opinion upon the merits of a medical work , this remark is open to exception in any instance where thc public , and not the isolated and exclusive members of the profession , are the parties addressed . Upon that which is directed to men indiscriminately , the world will form its own opinion , aud will demand that medical works for popular study should be devoid of that mysterious technicality in which the science" of medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance . The work before us treats of subjects we believe generaUy , yet very strangely , neglected hy the medical attendant , and requiring doubtlessly ( as in operative midwifery and the surgery of the eye ) an entire devotedness to a deeply important branch of study . The tone of this book is highly moral , and It abounds in wen-written , harrowing , ; yet _COrreCtdJsplayg Of the Buffering consequent upon unbridled sensualism . No human being can be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a warning beacon , a well-told appeal to reason , n permanent blessing . It is written in a clear intelligible style , and is evidently the production of a mind long and practically conversant " with the diseases of the most delicate division of the human organization .

Dear Sir , . —I cannot leave England without acknowledg ing the benefit I have received from your invaluable Cough Lozenges . Having been afflicted for the last thirteen years with frequent and severe attacks of Asthma and short breath ( particularly in winter time ) , I sought , for three years , for a remedy at the most renowned apothecaries in London—but in vain—I could find no relief whatever ; when fortunately I met with your establishment , 79 , St . Paul ' s Church-yard , and as soon as I made use of your incomparable lozenges , the expectoration was dislod ged without pain , and my breath became entirely free ; and by taking only one or two at bed time , my sleep was never once disturbed during the whole night : Therefore I am perfectly convinced that I owe my existence to your famous lozenges . * Many of my friends are now your customers , and the undersigned willingly add their names to tliis certificate in testimony of the benefit which they also have derived from the use of your lozenges .

      THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM . Is a gentle stimulant and rendvator of the 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 ; _BHd is calculated to afford decided relief to those who , by eavly indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened tiie powers of their system , and fallen into a state of chronic debility , by which 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 tiie 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 .
