The following extraordinary case of cure has been communicated to the Wholesale Agent for Parr ' s Life Pills , at Nottingham : — Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Church Hill Close , Old Lenton , near Nottingham , has been severely afflioted for the last thirty years , with a violent cough , and difficulty of breathing . The affliction has been so severe that she could not fulfil her usual domestic obligations . She took cold when only fifteen years Id , and tho cough never left her till she took Parr ' s Life Pills . She had tried almost every kind of medicine , and had taken laudanum in large quantities , but nothing afforded relief . She heard of Parr's Pills about last Christmas , and as soon aa she had taken about half a box , she found herself completely cured , and was never affected in the slightest manner during the severe weather that followed , and is now better in health than she has ever been in her life . This cure does indeed appear miraculous , but for the satisfaction of the most incredulous , she has kindly consented to answer any inquiries , either by personal application or by letter , addressed "Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Church Hill Close , Old Lenton . "

Two remarkable cases ( selected from many others ) communicated to Mr . Noble Bookseller and Printer , 23 , Market Place , the Agent for Hull . Mr . Plaxton , of Cottingham , five miles from Hull , had long been afflicted with a most severe internal disease . So dreadful were the paroxysms that he frequently ^ expected death was at hand to release him from his suflerings . For a great length of time he had been unable to sit down at all , evm being compelled to stand at his meals . His next door neighbour having heard of the virtues and unprecedented success of " Parr's Pil . s , " purchased a small box for him , and en his calling for a second box , he told me that such had been the astonishing effects produced by one box , he was able to sit down , and on taking two other boxes , his pains have left him ; his appetite is good , and he is able to follow his vocation nearly as well as he has ever been in bis life .

Theyhopethat the successful , easy , and expeditious mode they have adopted . oferadicatingevery symptom of a certain disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of business , and yet preserving the constitution in full vigour , and free frominja'fi will establish their claims for support . As tma Disease is one which is likely to be contr acted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but , on the contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , when another may unfortunately be imbibed ; therefore , the practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat each particular case in such a manner as not merely to remove the present attack , but to preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can avail himself of the greatest improvements w modem practice , by being ablc ^ to distinguish between discharges of a specific and of a simple or mui nature , which can only be made by one in daily practice , after due consideration of all circumstances . In the same manner at birth , appearances often take place in children , which call for a proper knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , in order to discriminate their real nature , and wmcfl may be * e means of sowing domes tio discord , unless managed by the Surgeon with propriety and _ sbu . Patients labouring under this disease , cannot be too cautious into whose hands they commit themselves . The propriety of this remark is abundantly , manifested , by the same party frequently passing «» ordeal of several practitioners , before he ^ fortunate enough to obtain a perfect cure . The following are some of the many symptoms tha t distin / juun this disease : —A general debility ; eruption on uw head , face , and body ; ulcerated sore thrw * scrofula , swellings in the neck , nodes on ¦ " « ""* bones , cancers , fistula , pains in the head and mm * which are frequently mistaken for rheumUwnn &o . &c . *« Messrs .

The Chabtists resident in Dabtmocthstbeet * nd the vicinity , had a meeting last week in Mr . Taylor ^ house . An interesting and instructive lecture ¦ was delivered to them by ilr . W . D . T&ylor . It was was determined to meet there regularly on Tuesday evenings . Ijvbrpooi- —The Chartists here feave formed a discussion f \ * s * , which meets every Sunday evening , is the large room of Musgrave ' s Coffee-house , at eight ettoefc . Akkold i ^ ottisghaH . —At the weekly meeting , en Monday , it was resolved unanimously , " That the Chartists of Arnold pledge themselves to stand by the Ifational Charter Association of Great Britain , and
countenance no man , or set of men , that would set on foot any other movtment—that they will never wase agitating till the Charter become the law , and the political victims be enlarged—that they place unbounded Confidence in Feargus O'Connor , and condemn the base Wretches who would injure that patriot ' s characterthat they will stand by O'Connor and the Star till death , presuming them to persevere in the cause they tavt hitherto pursued—that they highly approve the conduct of those members of the Convention who pro-Vested ' against Mr . Collins—that they treat scornfully the ba * e effort now mating to injure O'Connor through the sides of Frost—and that they thank the Editor ot the Northern Siar , for his noble advocacy of the people ' s cause . "
WOHCESteb- —The Chartists met at their room in Friar-street , on the 19 th , and passed reselntions , condemnatory of the " trap for tie unwary" by certain Iriends—operatives—in the form of a petition against the Government Tariff Bill , in which the repeal of the Corn Laws is insidiously lagged in as a remedy for the " evils of the commercial sjsU . tr . The Chartists of War-, tester were not to be so caught . They saw the hook ' and , c « HS 6 quent ! y , threw aside the bait with very little ceremony . A correspondent writes us that the tariff question excites much attention among the working men cf Wcrctsttr and its neighbourhood . It is nonsense to talk of remodelling the commercial system , with any view to the advantage of the " workies , " While the " &karks" possess all the power of law TnaV'Tig ¦ Whatever advantage might be obtained from A revmrjj of tLe tariff would row be an advantage only to the factions ; not to the people . Let the people secure their Charier , and then it will be time enough to look into matters of detail legislation .
Mansfield . —The Chartists here , anxious to do something for the prolongation of the Convention llttings , waited upon sundry " friends" among the middle classes ; but quickly found ont their mistake . The people must hope nothing from any but themselves . The National Petition has been signed here by V 81 males , and 1 , 098 . Toss . —On Tuesday evening , the 18 th instant , the Chartists of this city met in the large room occupied by the Forester ' s , situate in Straker ' s-passage , Fossgate , where they now hold their weekly meetings , Mr . Demaine in the chair , when , after the usual business of the meeting , an investigation of the conduct of Hr . Co&rles Stuart , a member of the Council , took place , in consequence ef the part he bad taken in the electioneering
Hiovements of Mr . Barkley , a candidate for tfee representation of this city , by calling upon the Chartists of Tork tb support that genteman , without having previously put the question , " would he support the People ' s Charter in case of his being returne ;] . to Parliament ?• ' A majority of the Council considered that Mr . S . had acted inconsistently by so doing , and requested him to attend a special meeting of the Council , for tha purpose of explaining his conduct on that occasion . The meeting he attended , but refused to give Sny explanation , and treated the Council with contempt—insisting , that if any charge was brought against him it should be at a public meeting . Tuesday being the night of public meeting , a charge was accordingly made against him by Mr . Cordeux , for inconsistency of
conduct in the proceeding as above stated . Mr . Stuart then entered inta a defence of his cenduct by charging the Council with , what he termed , audacity and imprudence , in daring to cail his conduct into question , and entered into a defence of Mr . Barkleys principles , stating that because he advocated the Ballet , denounced bribery , and admitted the right of the Suffrage , he ought to be supported by the Chartists of York . He Charged the Council with dragging him before the public that night , and concluded by declaring that so long as Mr . B-jrkley maintained the principles he expressed at the meeting on Friday , he cared not by what name he called , them , he should support him . After a few remarks from Mr . Barley , in answer to a charge of inconsistency brouiiLt against him by Mr . Smart , in the
course of his address , for-having moved and carried an ¦ meniment in favour of Universal Suffrage , at tha late Whig meeting , without having previously acquainted the Council of bis intentions , although the circaru stances rendered it impossible for him to do so , Mr . Cordeux rose to reply , and expressed his sorrow that Mr . Staart sh » ald have indulged in so much passionate invective , instead of giving a ralrn explanation of bis conduct ; in fact , he considered it no explanation aialL Mr . Stuart had contended that because Mr . Birkley advocated the Ballot , he ought to be supported by tie Caartista « f York . He ( Mr . C ) thought different , — -msaj of the Whigs , who are our most inveterate enemies , being strenuous advocates of the Ballot . " With respect to his denouncing bribery , both Whigs
and Tories had denounced the system , even with ttre bribe in their hands Mr . B ., he agreed , had admitted the right of ths Suffrage ; but when he heard him with abe same breath boast of his intimacy with , and friendship for , ' sueh men as O"Connell and Hume , the former having offered to bring 50 t , 0 QB men from Ireland , to put down Chartism , whilst the latter advocated coarse food as good ensngh for the working classes , he felt justified in saying that the Chartists of York had no reason for placing confidence in such a man . Was it not a fact that the whole of Mr . B nkley ' a Committee ware eppoeed to theCaarter ? and had not the chairman at that Committee refused to sign the petition for the restoration of Frost , Williams , and Jones , when solicited to do so by Mr . Stuart himself , only a few days
previously , alleging , as his reason , that the Government were perfectly justified in the course they had taken against those exiled patriots ? Mr . Stuart had stated ttut he had been dragged before that meeting by the CoundL This he ( Me . C . ) denied , as it was his own determination , aad contrary to the wish of tbrCoonciL Mr . Stuart , be contended , had not refuted the charge brought against him ; in short , the fact of Mr . S . having Bed for three cheers for Mr . Barkley , and neglecting to ¦¦ Q for the same honours , more jastly due , to mr noble patriot F . O'Connor , was of itself ineontfstaot with the principles which Hr . Staart professed , > B& concluded , by moving the following resolution , Which was seconded by Mr . Burley , " Tuat it is the

. WiLSDEJf . —A Radical meeting was held at thii place on Monday evening , Mr . Thompson in the chair . The meeting appointed a committee of three persons , Benjamin Hartley , William Cawcroft , William Eastwood , wool-combers , and a secretary , G « orge Bairstow , weaver . It was unanimously agreed that they join the National Charter Association as soon as possible ; and that they repose unbounded confidence in , and give their beat thanks to Feargus O'Connor , and the Editor of the Northern Star . Stock poet . —The Council beg leave to tell their brethren , that as the ill winds which have so long dispersed the Chartists of this district , like the accursed simoom , have now blewn over us , and that we are again
uniting , determined to put all obstruction and division down , and taking principle as our guide , we are determined to put down all those party differences and personal squabbles which have so long distracted the good and holy cause in our district ; we therefore earnestly call upon all our brethren and sisters—Chartists , to arouse from their apathy and enable us once more to place Stockport in the position she once held , and no longer be a laughing-stock for the parties who are opposed to us , and who tell us that Chartism is at discount—The Rev . John Williams Morris is delivering a course of lectures on the parliamentary history of England and Ireland , from the earliest period on record , down to the present time .
. Yeofil . —There was a meeting of the Chartists held at this place , on Monday the 17 th instant , which was not very numerously attended ; but the seal which was displayed towards the holy cause that we espouse , by those who were present , made amends for the nmniinwu ; ef the number . The abject for which we met was very important ; inasmuch as the proceedings of that meeting decided , whether the Chartists of this town should continue to be an organised body , acting in co-operation with each other ; or whether we Bhould for the futnre be considered as a few isolated innividuals , each following his own particular views . The business of the meeting was as follows : —A short time after we commenced the Chartist agitation in this town , we took a room to meet in , th . '" fri"g by so doing , we
should have a better opportunity of making known our principles , and , that it would be the means of augmenting our numbers ; but in consequence of the apathy manifested by the working classes of this town towards the Chartist cause , and the retrogade motion of some ef our members , we have incurred a heavy debt The subject for discussion was , the best-mode of liquidating the same ; and to decide ujton our future movements . Mr . Hewlett was called to the chair . The Chairman then proceeded to read a very encouraging letter from our worthy secretary , Mr . Bainbridge , who wa&unavoidably absent , when the following resolutions were unanimously agreed to , proposed by Mr . Stevens , and ascended by by Mr . Wheadon , " That it is necessary for the future welfare of this society , that we should know our resources ; we do therefore request the class-leaders to go round to the members of their classes , who are in arrears with their subscriptions , and apply
to them for the same , and if they do dot pay them immediate ! y to be considered as no longer members of this society . " Proposed by Mr . Stevens and seconded by Mr . Tucker , " That considering the embarrassed circumstances under which we are now labouring , we do enter into a voluntary subscription to help to pay the above debt" After which some of the members volunteered to pay 3 d . per week extra , until the debt was discharged , rather than see the society become defunct It was the opinion ef the members present , that much good might be effected if we had a talented missionary down in the west ; to make known the truths of Chartism , and to awaken the dormant energies of the people . Bnt nnfortunateiy it is net in our power to support one ; we think that it would not ba the worst money -which will be spent by the Executive Council , if they have the funds at their command , in sending one down here .
Glasgow . —A maeting was held on the 17 th , in the Universal Suffrage Hall , College open , at eight o ' clock , p . m ., for the purpose of transacting business connected with Charter moyements . After the Vice-chairman of the Lanarkshire Universal Suffrage Association had taken the chair , the Secretary , Mr . Brown , read the minntes of last meeting and the correspondence of their delegate in Convention . Some other matters of a private and pecuniary nature having been disposed of , Mr . C . M'Ewan rose to state that the members of the Chartist Church had applied to Mr . Brewester to preach a sermon to that congregation , which he had done , the subject being the Scottish Poor Laws , and the rights of the poor to subsistence from the soil that gave them birth . For so deing , the Presbytery of Glasgow had
taken up the affair , which they had referred over to the Presbetery of Paisley , the upshot of which is that Mr . Brewester is to be tried before the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland , for a misdemeanour , and he runs a pretty good chance of being kicked out of the Establishment altogether . He concluded by recommending that a public meeting be called in the Bazaar , in order to afford Mr . B . an opportunity « f lashing his brethren of the " black coats and cravats so white . " Messrs . Ross , M'Farlane , 4 c , supported the proposal . On the other hand , Messrs . Dickeon , Chisholm , and others , thought it was a subject which ought to be taken up by the members of the Chartist Church , and not by the Lanarkshire Association ; upon which Mr . A . Pinkerton remarked , that as a great number of persons
not at all friendly to Chartism would attend to hear the disclosures of Brewester , they should take that opportunity of making them swallow the Charter , as the only means of getting rid of the corrupt system altogether . This proposition was at once agreed to , as well as tke holding of the meeting in contemplation . Messrs . Moir , Pattison , M'Farlaue , M'Evran , Jack , and Maicolm were then proposed as candidates to move and second the Charter . Mr . Pattison was objected to for the part he had taken in the debate on the New Move . This was over-ruled , as Pattison had always been a consistent Chartist , whatever opinions he thought proper to hold regarding the characters of Lovett and
Collins ; besides , it was contended that as far as Glasgow was concerned , they had decently interred the remains of the New Move on the night of the ltth instant , and they had mutually agreed t © allow its ashes to sleep for the f ature in silent repose ; and so fat as Mr . Malcolm was also concerned , he had l&tely Bhown such strong Whiggish propensities , that it was a question -whether the great body of the Chartists would listen to him or not . Similar objections were expressed against Mr . Jack . Mr . Moir and Mr . Pattison were then appointed to move and second the Charter . A committee was also elected to get up the meeting . A V 4 te of tbanfca was then given to tlie Chairman , when the meeting dissolved .

MANCHESTER ,. —An important meeting was held in the Chartist Rooms , Tib-street , on Monday evening last ; the room was crowded to exoess . The chairman , after a few remarks on passing events , said he would introduce the speaker who was about to address them , hoping that they would give him a candid and fair hearing , and at the conclusion , if he advanced anything contrary to truth , any one would be at perfect liberty to object to it , and he , aa chairman , would pledge himself to obtain for him , » r them , a peaceable hearing . ( Cheers . ) Mr . Charles Connor then rose , and said he came there at the request of his friends to address them that evening , and in doing which he claimed a right which he himself was willing to give to every man . namelv .
the freedom of speech ; and because he professed to be the advocate of a measure that would , when obtained , give the same justice to one man as another , whatever might be his country , his class , his creed , and his colour—a measure for the adoption and carrying out these principles , which would be for the benefit of the human race . There was a spirit abroad which all the opposition in the world conld not quench , and a train of circumstances at work which would ensure success in the end , and that the people would never rest , nor be led astray , by anything less than the Charter . ( Loud applause . ) The principles of the Charter were known to them all . They had been so often and bo well explained to them that it would be a waste of time for him to
attempt to dwell upon them . He would , therefore , leave that subject to men muca better qualified than he was , and would proceed to examine who the actual producers of wealth were . ( Hear . ) The producing class are those who toll in the fields , mines , workshops , and fisheries , creating or procuring food , clothing , houses , and other necessaries , for the sustenance and convenience of society . Now , what was the condition of all those producers of human food I One would naturally suppose that those who produce all the food of man—throngh whose hands the whole must necessarily pass- ^ -would be able to lay hold cf as much as might satisfy their wants , ( that is the working portion of them ) : but it is » fact .
which coold not be controverted , that those who produce all the food of society , are miserably fed . —Mr . C . then proceeded to depict the privations to which the manufacturers and artizans of this country are subjected , and then proceeded to enquire into the remedy he said : —Some tell us that a repeal of the Corn Laws would banish starvation , give every man plenty of work , raise wages , and make working-men comfortable . How was this to be done ! They never take into consideration the rapid progress of machinery , and the hundreds of hands which are thrown oat of employment every week , and the machinery which was being every week got np is this country

for foreigners . The speaker then adverted to the average consumption of cotton , &c . » which has been frequently alluded to of late , in the disenssion of the subject adverted to- He read the petition from "Fielden ' s Factory Curse , " and entered upon a variety of topics through which our space will not allow us to follow . He concluded amid load cheers . The chairman then gave out the notices , and several letters and placards were read from different parts of the country , which Bhoired that the people were np , and at their post , and which received the plau * dits of the assembly . Mr . Griffin rose to move the following resolution- ; ho merely . read and . moved it , which was loudly cheered at the olese , " That this meeting is of opinion that the sop thrown ont at the eleventh hour by the base , hypocritical , scurvy , doubled tongued , treacherous , unprincipled , rapacious , shameless , unblushing , hollow , tyrannical .
greedy , insincere Whigs , is done for the purpose of deluding and deceiving : the people to misgovern the nation . In taking a retrospective view of their conduct , we find that they came into power with pledgee of economy , retrenchment and reform . They said that the working classes were robbed , plundered , aad enslaved by the Tories , who are hoary in crime , wrinkled in misrule , blind in prejudice , cruel in power , patronised for mischief , presumptuous in selfwill , the hatod , the despised , the vilified , the vituperated , the blackened , the blasted , the humiliated , the detested monsters . The Whigs were well supported by the people for four yean , and had a sufficient majority to carry any measure for the bettering of the | condition of the many ; instead of which the organ of the Whigs , Lord John Russell , declared
the reform a final measure , notwithstanding the promises they ( the Whigs ) made when out of power , to wit , that if the people would assist for the obtainment of the Reform Bill they in return would assist the people to obtain a full measure of justice for the people , and that they would never rest satisfied until the enslaved millions were in possession of those rights which truth , reason , and the laws of God and nature entitle them to . In opposition to which , when they considered themselves sufficiently fortified , they , by their acts and conduct told the people in language too plain to be misunderstood , that may go to the devil for further indulgences . They hare forced upon the people the infernal New Poor Law Bill , and to coerce the people in
subjection , and to carry it down their throats whether or not , they established bodies of rural police ; they transported the Dorchester labourers and the Glasgow cotton-spinners ; have imprisoned four hundred of our industrious countrymen for telling the truth . By their tyranny and oppression , they have driven a vast amount of capital abroad , and thousands of the cleverest artisans to compete against and ruin us ; they beingeither too short-sighted or dishonest to foresee and avoid it . They have held out all manner of inducements , and have fitted up ships for thousands to emigrate . When the narrow-minded , superstitious , and bigoted Tories left office , there was a clear surplus revenue of £ 2 , 665 , 000 , which the Whigs hare not only extinguished , but have actually created
a deficiency of £ 940 , 000 , besides adding to the National Debt £ 60 , 000 , 000 , and consequently increased the interest . They gave a deaf ear to white slaTerj , by treating their petitions with scorn and contempt , and voted £ 20 , 000 , OCO for the emancipation of black slavery . They voted a German woman £ 100 , 000 , and voted for £ 50 , 900 for another German pauper . They have added a great number of Peers , augmented the Pension List , and increased taxation £ 5 , 000 , 000 . They have coerced Ireland , aad slain the Canadians . They gave £ 70 , 000 for building stables for horses , and only voted £ 30 , 000 for national education . They hare brought the oountry to a most wretched condition . In 1832 the working classes were denominated by the Whigs as wise ,
industrious , and peaceable subjects ; but they are stigmatised now as seditious , rebellions , and disaffected . Rents and taxes have increased , while wages have decreased . The commercial coadition of the country is most lamentable . The working classes are the only classes taxed , yet poorly fed , thinly clad , wretchedly boused , and treated like slaves . They deserve the contempt of every true lover of his species , for their recent base , unprincipled , flagitious , unconstitutional , decency—defying , hypocritical , meanly cruel , sneakingly malicious , spitefully revengeful , and waspishly venemous treatment of Feargus O'Connor , O'Brien , and the rest of the incarcerated Chartists , and for kidnapping and banishing Frost ;
Williams , and Jones . Having taken a view of their conduct while in office , and found by experience that they have forfeited the confidence reposed in them , and believe them incapable of governing the country with comfort and satisfaction to the public , this meeting is determined to put no further trust in them . " Mr . James Lrech paid there was not a sentence in it but what he perfectly agreed with . It gave no quarter to either Whiga or Tories , and he hoped the working classes would endeavour to maintain their own position in society , and scorn both parties . The resolution was carried amid loud apapplause . —Mr . Mahon moved the next resolution , " That the Editor of the Star be requested to give a full report of the meeting , coupled with a request
that the Dundee Chronicle , the Weekly Dispatch , and the Scottish Patriot , the two Chartist Circulars , the Odd Fellow , Cleave ' s Gazelle , and the Dublin World , would copy the resolutions , in order to show the sentiments of the Chartists of Manchester respecting both factious , Whigs and Tories . " A person from the body of the meeting seconded it , and when put it was carried unanimously . Mr . JButterworth and two others also addressed the meeting . A vote of thanks was given to Charles Connor , and the meeting broke up , well satisfied . —[ We received a very lengthy report of the above named meeting , but such is the demand upon eur space and the importance of passing events , that we have been reluctantly compelled to curtail the report . ]
[ We have Inserted the resolution , above , verbatim , not feeling ourselves at liberty to alter the phraseology ; yet we cannot , and shall not , undertake to justify the unnecessary use of such a redundancy of harsh terms , however merited by the factions . ] Brow . vstbeet Chartist Rooms . —The Rev . W . V . Jackson preached here on Sunday evening last . The rev . gentleman produced a glorious feeling upon the minds of his audience by encouraging them to persevere through good and through evil report , until the Charter becomes tho law of the land , and the people of this country are comfortable in body and mind . He afterwards announced that a public tea party would be held in the Brown-street Rooms , on Thursday in Whitsun week , for the benefit oi that tried , valued , uncompromising , and noble patriot , now in Chester Castle , William Benbow .
STOCKPORT . —Csurtisg THE " Dsao" Chakiists . —A short time ago the Whigs boasted that tho Chartists were dead ; but now , alas ! the poor Whigs are so far reduced in their probabilities of sticking to place , that they are praying , beseeching , and begging the support of the " dead Chartists at the coming election ; this must convince plain John Campbell that there has been a ie 3 urrection , and therefore the day of judgment must be at hand ; prepare then , ye Whigs ; an offended , insulted , and oppressed jadge , in a united people . Chartists , be up and doing , and remember the tender mercies of " the base , brutal , and bloody Whigs . "
LANARK . —Corn Law Agitation versus Chartism .. —The Corn Law party to give every semblance of popularity and importance to their movement , attempted to get the Provost and magistrates at their head , but in this they failed , a 9 will be seen in the sequel . The declaration of ministers was hailed as a God-send , but they were not competent for the task , inasmuch as they did not dare to meet the pnblic , lest they might sustain a defeat . T / ieir first attempt was the getting up of a requisition to the magistrates to convene a publio meeting , for which they got upwards of 400 signatures , in answer to which the magistrates declined to interfere , but granted the use of the County Hall , for the said purpose . The next step was the invitation of two or three
dozen of the reqaisitionist , under a pretext of a preliminary meeting , preparatory to a publio one , who met on Monday , the 17 th inst . When Mr . A . Hislop , ex-baillie , was called to the chair . The Chairman said somethiag like the following . " Well , Gentlemen , I suppose ye a' ken what yero a' here about ; it is in order to get up a petition about the Corn Laws . " He took out a letter , and read it to the meeting , whieh he bad xot express from Glasgow that morning ; it was from Mr . Murray , Corn Law Secretary , which urged him to get up a meeting , and to procure as many signatures as possible . The letter also contained the draft of a petition , and he wa 3 anxious the meeting would adopt . After a good deal of desultory conversation about a general
meeting in terms of the requisition , Dr . SnirJey reminded the meeting that a number of gentlemen had met in Edinburgh for the same purpose , and were anuoyed by a set of fellows ( meaning the Chartists ) who were so impertinent as almost to push the chairman from the ohair . When the Learned Doctor had concluded his luminous speech the chairman advised them to take Doctor Shirlej ' a advice , adding , if you had been at a meeting that I attended in the West Church , when Mr . Gillon was here , you would not think of oalliag any more publio meetings . The Chairman seems to have had a vivid recollection of
the signal defeat which they sustained in December 1838 , when ihe Chartists carried a vote of want of confidence in Mr . Gillon , M . P . ia a meeting called by the Whigs themselves , although they were assisted by a Tory justice of the peace . Mr . J . Cunningham stated that they bad nothing to fear from the ChartiBts , for they had sufficient moral power to put them down . Notwithstanding , the Chairman proposed *• That thiB meeting adop t&e Glasgow petition presently , and have no more meetings about it . " Seconded by Dr . Shirley . Mr . J . Simpson moved " That we call a pnblic meeting , in terras of the requisition . " Only two voted for the amendment .

Perry ' s Purifying Specific Pills , price 2 s . ° d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and 11 s . ( Obserro none are genuine without the signature ef R . and L .

They have effected the most surprising cures , not only in recent and severe cases , but when salivation and all other means have failed ; and when an early
application is made to these Pills , for the cure of the Venereal Disease , frequently contracted in a moment of inebriety , tho eradication is generally completed in a few days ; and in the more advanced and inveterate stages of venereal infection , characterised by a variety of painful and distressing symptoms , a perseverance in the Specific Pills , in which Messrs . Perry have happily compressed the most purifying and healing virtues of the principal part of the vegetable system , aud which is of the utmost importance to those afflicted with Scorbutic affections , Eruptionsonany part of the body , Ulcorations . Scrofulousor Venereal taint ; being justly calculated to cleanse the blood from all foulness , counteract
every morbid affection , and restore weak and emaciated constitutions to pristine health and vigour . Tae rash , indiscriminate , and unqualified use of Mercury , has been productive of infinite mischief ; raider the notion of its being an antidote for a certain disease , the untutored think they have only tb saturate their system with Mercury , and the business is accomplished . Fatal error ! Thousands are annually either mercurialized out of existence or their constitutions so broken , and the functions of nature so impaired , as to render the residue of life miserable . The disorder we have in view owes its fatal results either to neglect or ignorance . In the first stage it is always local , and easy to be
extinguished by attending to the directions fully pointed out in the Treatise , without the smallest injury to tho constitution ; but when neglected , or improperly treated , a mere local affection will be converted into an incurable and fatal malady . What a p ity that a young man , the hope of his country and the darling of his parents , should be snatched from all the prospects and en joy met n a of life by the consequences of one unguarded moment , and b y adisease which is not in its own nature fatal , and rrhioh never proves so if properly treated . It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victim , to this horrid disease owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men , who , by the use of that deadly poison , mercury , ruin tho constitution , cause ulceration , blotches on the head , face , and body , dimness of
sight , noise in the ears , deafness , obstinate gleets , nodes on the shin bone , ulcerated sore throats , diseased nose , with nocturnal pains in the head and limbs , till at length a general debility of the constitution ensues , and a melancholy death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings .
