      CHAMBERS' PHILOSOPHY REFUTED . Just published Price Fourpence ( forming a Pamphlet of 56 pages demy Svo ., in a stiff wrapper ) , THE THIRD EDITION OF A FULL and COMPLETE REFUTATION of the PHILOSOPHY contained in a TRACT recently published by the MESSRS . CH . _-UIBEKS , of Edinburgh , entitled tlie "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 _hava 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 the almost unanimous wish of the Labouring Classes . "The Employer and the Employed , " * * by Feargus O'Connor , * * beats _anything even of its author's . —Economist . Complete in one Vol ., neatly Bound in Cloth , A _PRACTICAL WORK ON SMALL FARMS . Price Two Shillings and Sixpence . BT FEARGUS O'COX . VOR , ESO .. 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 nil the practical instructions , together with Plates , describing Farm-house , Offices , Tank , Farm-yard , & e . ; with particular information requisite for carrying out all the operations . H . B . —The above work may still be procured in num . bers , price Gd . each . " I have , within the last few mouths , visited every part of France , and I declare that I havo seen more misery in one street in Dublin than in all France ; the people are well clad , well fed , and merry ; they are all employed on Shall _Famis of _tltcir oirn , or on equitable takings !"Tide lard , Cloncurrys Letter in Morning Chronicle , Oct . Zth , ISiS . Those personsdesirons of bettering their condition and of becoming "Indepauleut Labourers , " by entering tha "Productive-labour" Market , will do well to read "A Practical Worlcon Small Farms , " by Feabgcs O'Conkos _., Esq . . It contains much useful information , invaluable to the parties for whom it was written ; and Old Farmers vrill find many useful lessons in tlie new system of husbandry , which they have yet to learn . The work displays £ reatpracticalknowledge , andis written so that any one who reads may understand . Mr . O'Connor seems nst to Save 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 on agriculture seem so desirous of using . Perhaps they do not understand the practice of Farming ; so well as ihe theory 5 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 it is pronounced . The reader will find that Mr . O'Connor has avoided all those hard names , and suited the language to the toiling labourer , -whose college is generally the workshop , or , at best , the Sunday School . Though tlie 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 Tamer ' s _better . "This really useful little volume ought to be in the bands of every one at all connected with agricultural pursuits . "—Lloyd ' s Weekly London Newspaper . " Although we feel no desire , in the language of the proud Peruvian , in _contemplating what we hope to rejoice in , the contentment , prosperity , and comfort of our fellow men , to exclaim—* ' This , this is tsy work f nor is oar object , as Mr . O ' Connor declares his to be , "that each _man-whu \ s \ fiuing to work maybe independent of every other man in the world for his daily bread , " yet we can with much pleasure recognise in the book before us a powerful instrument for aiding in developing in man a _« mch higher destiny than he has hitherto attained . " _ttr O'Connor shews clearly , what will soon he apparent to all -who reflect deeply , that we are not left without the means of obtaining not only all that is physically requisite for man's progress , but also that wemay readily prodace what is apparently desirable ; for none who carefully psrase this work can doubt that a system of small farms , held by active and industrious labourers , _rronld amply return , in exchange for healthful exertion , far more than is requisite to preserve physical strength . _« ' He also shews thatsomethingmore than this is requisite to ensure happiness , for he says in page 121 , " I feel convinced that man can place no reliance whatever upon his fellow man , or a community of men , when circumstances operate npon his or their minds , the influence and effect of which would be stronger tlian any abstract notions of justice . For instance , if a community of labouring men purchase a quantity i land , and hire la . bour for its cultivation , hmreTcr just their intentions and pure their motives , they will nevertheless feel themselves justified in raising the price of the land , according to the improved value conferred npon 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 iired by a community , at the end of twenty years would fcein no better condition than they were at starting , while the community of proprietors would hare increased the Talae of their property twenty-fold ; that is , they would taverobbed those labourers , by whose industry the value was increased , of nineteen shillings in the pound . " " These remarks arc powerful arguments in the sphere in which they are writ ten , and if examined in their relation to the universal , they confirm tlie testimony that "The earth is the Lord ' s , and all that therein is ; lie round 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 in , is from evil , and will produce its consequence , namely , vice , crime , and misery . "We can strongly recommend Mr . O'Connor ' s work to our readers , containing a great amount of practical information on agriculture , which should be most popularly diffused , "— -ConcmUum Gazette .

The science of Grammar is disentangled ia them from the folds of mysticism which have bo long enshrouded it . Tbe absurd and unmeaning technicalities which pervade aU other works on Grammar _arcexchanged 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 . Tha necessary divisions and subdivisions are rationally accounted for , and the principles of _Universal Grammar demonstrated _EoMly that the meanest capacity may understand them as clearly as it understands _taattw _* and two make four . In Syntax , the formation of the English Language is exclusively consulted , without any unnecessary -reference to other languages . : A majority of tha numerous Rules given inmost Grammars arc shewn to be little better than a heap of senseless tautology . The necessary Rules are demonstrated upon rational principles , aud illustrated by a variety of examples .

' One ' gentleman in this island , who had , I believe , about fifty running ulcers about his legs , arms , and body , who had hied all other medicines before the arrival of yours , but all 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 vigour .

Sir , —I beg to inform you that I believe I had been , for more than three years , one of the greatest sufferers in 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 bead on a table , lest . l should oe suffocated . Xo one thought I should live over the winter , nor didlexpect it myself ; but I am happy to say that I am now able to work from morning to night , aud 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 ) _Jebemiah _Caset . In aU Diseases of ihe Skis , had legs , old wounds and ulcers , bad breasts , sore nipples , stony and ulcerated cancers , tumours , swellings , gout , rheumatism , aud lumbago , likewise in cases of Piles , Uolloway ' s Pills in all the above cases , ought to be used with the Ointment ; as by this means cures _vtiU be effected with a much greater . certainty , and in half the time that it would require by using tbe Ointment alone .

      PARR'S LIFE PILLS A RE acknowledged to he all that are required to con . quer disease and prolong life . The extraordinary success of this medicine is tho wonder of tlie age ; it lias 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 . Tens of thousands have testified that perseverance iu tlie use of PARR'S L 1 PB PILLS will completely cure any disease , and are living witnesses of the benefit received from this invaluable medicine . Testimonials are received daily , and it would be impossible in a newspaper to publish one half received ; and tho following are selected as people well known in their respective neighbourhoods , and whose testimony is unquestionable . Further sheets of testimonials , and the " Life aud Times of Old Parr , " may be had , gratis , of all agents . - The following case of cure by Parr's Lifo Pills is commuuicatcd by Mr . C . RuUer _, cUen \ ist and druggist , Shaftesbury , Dorset , agent for Parr ' s Pills : — A respectable farmer residing near Shaftesbury , had for years been subject to the most distressing attacks of giddiness of the head , frequently attended with severe head ache . Tlie various medicines he used at different times did him little or uo good , till he was induced to give Parr ' s Pills a trial . The very first dose afforded much relief , and he has found them more serviceable than any other medicine he has taken . He always resorts to them on finding any symptoms of the complaint coming on , and they invariably relieve him . The attacks have been much less frequent since taking Parr ' s Pills , and lie believes by continuing their use his complaint will entirely leave him . Dated April 2 Gth , 1845 . Prom Mr . W . Alexander , bookseller , Yarmouth : — - -: You will probably remember tho name of the respectable octogenarian gardener , Mr . Cowles , of Blunderstone , who still ( with his son-in-law ) attends our excellent vegetable and fruit market . Mr . Cowles , when I last saw him , a few weeks ago , was . in excellent health , and , although eighty-eight years of age , works at digging in his garden several hours in the day . He still continues occasionally to take the med cine , which he believes , under Providence , to have beeu the means of conferring on him so much comfort _. Since I wrote the above , I have inquired after Mr . Caud , and learn that he is quite well and hearty . The late severo cold weather affected him much ; but , having taken your _cKcellcnt medicine , he is quite well , cheerful , and able to resume his work . William Aiexahpeb . Champion Office , March 5 , 1 S 15 . Gentlemen , —I think it only fair to mention that a man named Scanlon , residing in Sligo , porter to tlie Bianconi Car , on purchasing a box of your pills , declared to me that for tho last eight years he has suffered severely from a bad stomach , no food resting on it , and swelling often existing ; and that after finishing one box at Is . _1-Jd . he felt not only better , but well ; can now cat any food , and his appetite and spirits increase .
