      VERY IMPORTANT . MR . HOBSON , Stak Office , Leeds , has become General Agknt for Dr . GREEK'S Genuine Improved Universal VEGETABLE HYGEIaN MEDICINES , of Glasgow , and is authorised to appropriate 10 per cent , off his sales to obtain the Charter , and aid the distressed victims cf oppression . Dr . Grcer ' s Pills are sold in stamped boxes ; of I 3 . jd . 2 s . 3 d ., 43 . 6 d ., and 11 s . each . The small boxes have sixty pills , the 2- \ . 0 J . have one hundred and eighty ; the 4 s . 6 d . have three hundred and thirty , and the 11 s . boxes have eight hundred and sixty pills in each box ; so that trie larger the box the cheaper in proportion . As Dr . Greer was professor for the British College of Health , London , during the years 1832 , 1833 , and 11134 ; nnd as he wa 3 chosen by the Proprietors of that institution , and above 10 , 000 Englishmen to revise the Materi'i Medica . &c . his Pill 3 , of course , must be an improvement of Morrison's . But they bear Dr . Grear's own namo only . And to distinguish them from all other pills , No . 1 has a white label , and No . 2 a green label on the box lid . Although No . . 2 to the strongest ; and most efficient purgative , and is the principal medicine to keep the bowels in good order , aud to subdue all acute inflammatory diseases at once by a few brisk doses thrice a day . Yet as No . 1 is the best tonic diuretic and exhilirant , and as its essence circulates 7 , 000 times through the bedy in the blood , oftener than that of No . 2 before it operates , therefore , all chronic diseases require thao both , should be used alternately , daily , and by which every disease of whatever nature , in either ycung or old , 011 sea and land , which can be cured , are cured by them . When Dr . Greer fitiJs any man who understands the human body , and the Materia Medica better than himself , be will become his pupil and patroKHe his medicines . Mr . Hobson will give a sheet of cures and directions with the boxes , to shew tho efficacy and the safety of these medicineB , to those who purchase them . These Pills have been above seven years before the public , and have obtained a character which invites enquiry and challsnges competition in the cure of all diseases . J AS .

" Dear Sir , —It is with feelings of the most lively gratitude that I convey to you a knowledge of the cure that I have obtained by the use of your Holland's Balsam of Spruce . I feel it incumbent upon me to make you acquainted with my case ; though unwilling to put myself forward , yet I conceive it a duty duo to society that my testimony should be added to those which I perceive you have inclosed with your medicine . My case was one of that numerous class which unfortunately aro of too frequent occurrence in this variable climate , namely , cold taken irom over exertion in the pursuit of my business ; not heeded at the commencement , it proceeded through all the usual stages of colds , next cough , then difficulty of breathing , attended with most aistressing exertions in coughing ^ Tpith sensation of blood rushing upwards to the head until the temples felt as if they would burst . I tried all the usual remedies ; when , almost without hope , I saw your advertisement , and was induced to give it a trial , and , I rejoice to state , that the first night afforded me relief . A little continuance in its use gradually brought refreshing sleep , and now I am happily restored to health . Allow me , Sir , to tender you my best thanks for the means you have taken to place your discovery before the public , who , I am convinced , will be benefited by its use . " Yours , most obediently , " James Wilson . " " To Mr . C . Holland . " This case will be immediately followed by others , to the number of nearly 100 already received ; its astonishing power in subduing coughs and colds exceeds all belief , whilst its healing , balsamic , and Eoothing qualities instantly relieve soreness and tightness of the chest , sense of suffocation , eore throat , &c .

"Gentlemen , —I write to inform you that I have returned on foot from Liverpool , and many of my old friends here are indeed astonished at my altered appearance and activity . I mu 3 t also inform you that my brother-inVlaw . Mr . W . J . Banes , of this town , has , through my wonderful restoration to life and sound health , made use of Parr's Life Pills , and their effects on him have , if possible , been even more miraculous than on myself . He had suffered from a most distressing asthma , cough , &c , for above seven years , but , after tising one box at 2 s . 9 < J ., is quite a new being . The most remarkable part of his case is this—his finger and toe nails , which had become so diseased that they were quite unsightly , have been replaced by now and perfect ones . This has been considered by many who have visited him as a curiosity and wonder ; for my part , I have ceased to wonder at any cure effected by Old Parr . 1 continue to enjoy the best of health and spirits , and am yours very respectfully , John Osborne , " Late of her Majesty ' s 52 nd Regiment of Foot , discharged incurable by the Regimental Doctors . " " Hinckley , July 27 , 1841 . Mr . Burgess , Bookseller , Hinckley , will answer inquiries . ANOTHER ACCOUNT FROM THE CITY OF LINCOLN . " To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " Aug . 27 th , 1841 . 11 Gentlemen , —Were I to enumerate all the Cures and Benefits obtained by taking this famous remedy . ( and are offered to me ) , it would require a book as largo as a Church Bible to write them in ! Not a day passes but some one comes to acknowledge the blessings of a enre—some one being made free in their limbs from pain and rheumatism , some cured of sick head-ache of long standing , some from violent bilious attacks , others cured of the ague , of swelled legs , and sore legs , for curing the palpitation of tho heart , and , wonderful to relate 1 old men and women say , since they took Old Parr ' s Pills , they have enjoyed better health , better spirits , better appetite , had more nerve and strength . than they had experiencea for tho past twenty years , and that Old Parr is like new life to them , for they feel all those delightful changes in tho system . In fact , these wonderful Pills appear to contain all the virtues of the ' pothecaries shop , without having logo through all the regular doses of draughts and boluses . " My sale ! , instead of decreasing , increases . Since last August , when I received the first supply of Parr's Life Pills ( with the four gross you niay now send me by first conveyance ) , I have had 2 , 07 b' boxes at Is .

Drury has forwarded particulars of a few of the persons cured and restored the week past . "The following cases have come to my knowledge : — " A Lady whose name I am not allowed to mention , informed me she had received very great benefit from taking Old Parr ' s Pills , and she believes them to be very valuable as a Family Medicine for most disorders . ' * A Gentlemcfn Farmer has also informed mo he has been much benefiued by taking Old Parr ' s Pills , and "An Old Gentleman ( about 70 ) came to buy a box , on the recommendation of an Old Lady , who said they had done her so much good , he had a mind to try them also . " Another Lady who was recommended to try them , a few weeks since , came to say she had only taken a few of the Pills , but sho felt so much better she was certain Old Parr ' s Pills were excellent , and she had no doubt they would be generally used in every family . " A young Lady ( twenty years old ) had been subject , for a long time , to much pain in her chest , —it was so bad at times' sha could neither sit still , eat , or drink , and tho pain increasing to such a degree she was fit to sink under it ; Old Parr ' s Pills wore recommended : she took one small box of them , according to direction , and they appeared to give some trifling ease ; they were , however , persevered in , and a large box completed a radical cure , and she has found herself batter in health ever since , «' These cases , with many more similar , I can speak to as being faithful .

      VALUABLE WORKS . Just published , price 2 a . 12 mo . bound in cloth , t ^ IFTEEN LESSONS ON THE ANALOGY £ AND SYNTAX OF THE EJiCLISK LANGUAGE , for the use of adult persons who have negleoted the study of Grammar . BY WILLIAM HILL . The Lessons , in this Work , are intended solely for-the'use Of natives . They are divested , therefore of all th 6 se hair ' s-breadth distinctioHS and unnecessary Subdivisions in Analcjiy , whicli , if at ; all useful , can only be useful to foreigners . The science of Grammav is disentangled , in thia ^ Work from the folds of mysticism which have so long enshrouded it . The absurd and uhmerniKg technicalitiesj which pervacja all other Works on Grammar , are exchanged for terms which have a definite and precise meaning , illustrative of the things they represent . The Parts of Speech are arranged on an entirely hew principle , founded on a Phiiosaphical Consideration of the Nature of Language , aad applicable to _ all Languages . 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 English Language is exclusively cmisultad , without : any unnecessary reference to other Languages . A majority of the numerous Rules given in most Grammars are shown to be littlo batter tfaati a heap of senseless Tautology . The necessary Rules aro demonstrated upon rational Principles , and illustrated by a variety of Example . By the Use of this Book and its accompanying-Exercises , any person 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 . THE FOLLOWING TESTIMONIALS OF THE PRESS , Selected from a host of similar ones , may coavey some idea of the public estimation in which this Work isholden : — "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 ig through tho understanding ; . . . It is but justice to him to say that , in a few pages , he gives a more clear and comprehensive view of tho structure of the English language than can be found in some very elaborate works .

      MEDICAL ADVICE . TO THE AFFLICTED WITH SCURVY , VENEREAL , OR . SYPHILITIC DISEASES , RHEUMATISM , AND NERVOUS . OR SEXUAL DEBILITY . MR . M . WILKINSON , SURGEON , &c . 13 , Trafalgar Street , Leeds . And every Thursday , at No . 4 , George Street , Bradford , HAVING devoted his studies for many years exclusively to the various diseases of the genorativo and nervous system , in the removal of those distressing debilities arising from a secret indulgence in a delusive and destructive habit , and to the successful treatment of VENEREAL AND SYPHILITIC DISEASES , Continues to bo consulted from nine in the morning till tea at night , and on Sundays till two , —and country patients requiring his assistance , by making only one personal visit , will receive such advice and medicines as will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual cure , when all other means have failed . In recent cases of a certain disorder a perfect cure is completed in one week , or no charge made for " medicine after that period , and in those cases where other practititioners have failed , a perseverance in his plan , without restraint in diet , or hindrance from business , will ensure to the patient a permar nent and radical cure . It frequently happens that in moments of thoughtlessness a person imbibes a disease where suspicion is least likely to be excited ; this state of security leads to a want of caution which aggravates the nature of the complaint . But where immediate application is made , the corroding poison is checked in its infancy , smothered ere it takes root , and destroyed before its venom can effect a perceptible appearance in the system . ^ Where the disease has been allowed to exist and remain , the more cause have we to fear the undermining influence of this poison , and a mere removal of its external appear ^ auce is not to be depended upon ; a thorough cure must be achieved to prevent a return of the disease , and leave the system free from all infection . A complete knowledge of the symptoms and treatment of these insidious and dangerous diseases , can only be acquired by those who are in daily practico , and have previously gone through a regular course of Medical Instruction ; for , unfortunately , there are hundreds who annually fall victims to the ignorant use of Mercury and other dangerous remedies , " administered by illiterate men , who ruin the constitutiou by suffering disease to get' into the system , which being carried by tlis circulation of the blood into all parts of the body , the whole frame becomes tainted with venereal poison , and most unhappy . consequences ensue , at one time affecting the skin , particularly the head and face , with eruptions and ulcers , closely resembling , and often treated as scurvy , at another period producing the most violent pains in the limbs and hones , which are frequently mis- , taken for rheumatism ; thus the whole frame becomes debilitated and decayed , and a lingering death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings . What a grief for a young person in the very prime of life , to bo snatched out of time , and froinallthe enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at fivstj avid which never proves fatal if properly treated , as all its fatal results are owing either to neglect or ignorance . Mr . W . 's invariable rule is to give a Card to each of his Patients as a guarantee for cure , which he pledges himself to perform , or return his fee . For the accommodation of either sex , where distance or delicacy prevents a personal visit , his PURIFYING DROPS , price 4 s . 6 d ., can be had of any of the following agents , with printed directions so plain , that they may cure themselves without even the knowr ledge of a bed-follow . They are particularly recommended to be taken before persona enter into the matrimonial state , lest the indiscretions or a parent are the source of vexation to him the remainder of his existence , by afflicting his innocent but unfortunate offspring with the evil eruptions of the malignant tendency , and a variety of other complaints , that are most assuredly introduced by the same neglect arid imprudence .

      THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM Is a gentle stimnlant and renovator of the impaired functions of life , and is exclusively directed to the cure of sach compldnts as arise from a disorgariizatioH of the 1 Generative System , whether constitutional or acquired , loss of sexual power , and debility arising from Syphiltic dis ase ; and is calculated to aftord decided relief to those who , by early indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened the powers ofitheir system ^ and fallen into a stat e ef chronic debility , by which the coustitutipn 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 seductive error —into a gradual but total degradation of manhoodinto a pernicious application of those inherent rights which nature wisely instituted for the preservatioa of her species ; bringing on premature decripitude , and all the habitudes of old age : —such a one carries with him the form and aspect of other men , but without the vigour and energy of that season which hi 9 early youth bade him hope to attain . How many men cease to be men , or at least , cease to enjoy manhood at thirty ? How many at eighteen rece j ye the impression of tho seeds of Syphilitic disease itself ? the consequences of which travel out of the ordinary track of bodily ailment , covering the frame with disgusting evidences , of its ruthless nature , and impregnating the wholesnme stream of life with mortal poison ; conveying into families the seeds of disunion arid unhappinesa ; undermining domestic harmony ; and striking at the very soul of hupaan intercourse . The fearfully abused powers of the human Generative System require the most cautious preservation ; and the debility and disease resulting from early indiscretion demand , for the cure of those dreadf u evils , that such medicine should be employed that is most certain to uccessful . It Is for these case 3 Messrs . Perry and Co ., particularly designed their CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIAGUM which ia intended to relieve those persons ^ who , by an immoderate iudulgenca of their passions , have ruined their constitutions , or in their way to the consummation of that deplorable state , arc affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach , a 3 the various affections of the nervous system , obstinate gleets , excesses , irregularity , obstructions of certain evacuations , weakness , total impotency , barrenness , &c . : As nothing can be better adapted to h'tv * nd nourish the constitution , so there is nothing more generally acknowledged to be peculiarly efficacioua in all inward wastinga , loss , of appetite , indigestion , depression of spirits , trembling or shaking of the hands or limbs , obstinate coughs , shortness of breath , or consumptive habits .

      ¦ under three heads . First , to prove that the peupie ¦ were in reality slaves . Second , the causes of their slavery . And third , the mode of removing that atate of vassalage under which the people lived . Heattempted to prove his first position by giving thia definition of ib . 3 term slave in static ^ a slave to be a man ¦ who is tb . 3 property of another man , and that tiie industrious classes of Britain , as a ciass , "were as much the slaves of the class abqve them a 3 the negroes are to tueir individual masters ; because ihey had no more power in the mafcng of the laws they are forced to obey than tha negrses , who "were in the same predicament . Having at great length shown the various causes of tfteir slavery , he summed np tiat haid by incontrovertilly proving a : i ih = oclsting misery in society to be , firs ; ,

      the re 4 n . 1 t of ciass leglsiat ' . on ; second , tie disunion amongst the people ; tiiird , the want of the knowledge of the people of their own power , ¦ which , if- they duly appreciated , "would render them cmnipoteBt .

Mr . C made a vary energetic appeal to the mettiiig . As they would wish to remove the misery , which , be was sorry to say , existed to a very alarming extent , in all parts of tLa country , he would impress upon them , the necessity of protesting against ail their clap-trap schemes , zi > A go the whole hog for the Charter , as the

      only sure mode- of procuring a cheap loaf , plenty o £ j neaus tf procuring education , and equal protection for the proptjry Ua war ) of the poor artisan as the rich capitalist or aristocrat . Mr . C . Bat down , amidst most deafening cheers . Mr . Sinclair moved the . following resolution , which was ably secoEdetl by Mr .
