Price 4s. 6d. and 8s. 6d. per bottle.

Beware of spurious" KALYDORS," containing mineral astringents utterly ruinous to the complexion, and which, by their repellent action, endanger health.

ROWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL.-The singular virtues of this successful invention for restoring, improving, and beautifying the Human Hair, are too well known and appreciated to need comment. The very fact of its having stood the test of nearly half a century of probation, and obtained the especial patronage of her Majesty the Queen, H.R.H. Prince Albert, the whole of the Royal Family, and of every Court in the civilized world, and the high esteem in which it is universally held, together with numerous testimonials constantly received of its efficacy, afford the best and surest proof of its merits.-Price 3s. 6d. ; 7s.; family bottles (equal to four small), 10s. 6d., and double that size, 21s. per bottle.

ROWLANDS' ODONTO, or PEARL DENTIFRICE, a white Powder for the Teeth, compounded of the choicest and most recherché ingredients of the Oriental Herbal, of inestimable virtue for preserving and beautifying the Teeth and strengthening the Gums. Its truly efficient and fragrant aromatic properties have obtained its selection by the Court and Royal Family of Great Britain, and the sovereigns and nobility throughout Europe.-Price 2s. 9d. per box.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION.-Unprincipled individuals, for the sake of gaining a trifle more profit, vend the most spurious compounds under the names of "Macassar Oil," "Kalydor," and "Odonto;" some under the implied sanction of Royalty and the Government Departments, with similar attempts at deception, while they copy the labels, advertisements, and testimonials (substituting fictitious names and addresses for the real) of the original preparations. It is therefore highly necessary to see that the word “RÖWLANDS" is on the wrapper of each article.-All others are FRAUDULENT IMITATIONS!!

The genuine articles are sold by the Proprietors, and by every respectable Perfumer and Chemist throughout the kingdom.

TO FLAUTISTS.

13, HANWAY

THOMAS SPROW SENDON (SOLE MARK STREET,

BRATED CHARLES NICHOLSON'S FLUTES), takes this opportunity to inform the Musical Public in India and the Colonies that he now also manuLactures Flutes on the principle of the talented Flautist, JOSH, RICHARDSON; therefore all future orders should state whether a "NICHOLSON" or "RICHARDSON" Flute is required.

These instruments possess a remarkable brilliancy of tone, and are perfect in intonation and tune in every key; the superiority of style in the finishing department leaves nothing to be wished for by the connoisseur, and the plan adopted only by T. P. of seasoning the wood for extreme climates renders these instruments far superior to any others now manufactured.

The prices are the same as for the "Nicholson's" Flutes, and vary, according to their number of keys, from 11 guineas to 30 guineas; and purchasers, to prevent their being imposed upon, will receive a certificate, signed by the approver and maker, thus-JosH. RICHARDSON and THOS. PROWSE.

All orders must be accompanied with a remittance, or by an order through their agent in London.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.-BILIOUS & LIVER COMPLAINTS. No medicine

DIXON'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS.

ever offered to the public has met with such general approval as DIXON'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS. For the last FIFTY YEARS they have been considered a safe and effectual remedy for complaints arising from affections of the liver and stomach, viz, indigestion, loss of appetite, heartburn, flatulence, spasms, costiveness, and the disorders caused from the want of a proper secretion of the bile. They are well calculated for those persons, and elderly people, who are obliged constantly to take some medicine in order to assist the action of the bowels, as they contain no drastic ingredients (or mercury in any shape), and their repeated use does not lessen their efficacy, or weaken the stomach. They have a peculiar effect in relieving headache, and all the disagreeable symptoms which arise from too much wine, or any excess of the table. As a medicine in warm climates, where bilious complaints are so frequent and alarming, they are an invaluable remedy, and strongly recommended to persons who travel, as they retain their effect for some years.

The proprietors of this excellent preparation, in consequence of repeated application, have been induced to offer a ONE SHILLING Box, which is sold, wholesale and retail, with the former sizes, at their new establishment, 24, Conduit Street, Regent Street. None are genuine which have not GEORGE DIXON engraved on the government stamp, sealed with his arms; and wholesale by Messrs.

The principle adopted by the Universal Life Assurance Society, of an annual valuation of assets and liabilities, and a division of three-fourths of the profits among the assured, is admitted to offer great advantages, especially to those parties who may wish to appropriate their proportion of profit to the reduction of future premiums.

The following Table will shew the result of the last division of profits, as declared on the 12th May, 1847, to all persons who had on that day paid six annual premiums. This will be found a liberal reduction if the original premiums be compared with those of other offices adopting a similar plan of division of profits:

His prices are moderate, his goods of the finest quality.

STOCKINGS are now daily patronized by the leading members of the profession; their superiority over every other manufactured fabric, for artificial support, is admitted by all who inspect them; they afford an equal, comforting, and permanent pressure, on every portion of the limb, avoiding the excessive trouble of lacing; they are drawn on with the facility of an ordinary stocking, adding little or no size to the leg. The success that has attended every case submitted to them, through the profession or otherwise, has established the confidence of all the first practitioners. H. and Co. are therefore enabled to guarantee a comfort and support hitherto unknown in any other form of bandaging.

THRESHER'S INDIA GAUZE WAISTCOATS.

THESE really important articles of under clothing,

tropical climates, and are strongly recommended by all medical men as the most effectual preventative of the many diseases arising from check of perspiration to which the residents in warm climates are so particularly liable. This manufacture possesses all the advantages, without the inconvenience, of flannel waistcoats; the texture is light, soft, and delicate, perfectly free from all irritating or disagreeable qualities, and a very superior absorbent, consequently the very best description of under-waistcoat that can be worn in India, or in any warm climate. The valuable qualities of THRESHER'S INDIA GAUZĒ WAISTCOATS are well known and have been long tested in India, and the very general approval and consequent demand for them has given rise to many inferior imitations, which, with a view to deceive, have been variously marked India Gauze, Oriental Gauze, Gauze Vigonia, &c. Messrs. THRESHER and GLENNY, therefore, beg most particularly to impress upon all parties the necessity of applying direct to their establishment, 152, STRAND, LONDON, for any they may require, and also most especially to caution the public against purchasing any article of the kind except those which are marked THRESHER'S INDIA GAUZE, as none others can be depended upon. These waistcoats are made both for ladies and gentlemen, and Messrs. Thresher and Glenny undertake to forward them in dozens or half-dozens to every part of England and the principal towns of Ireland and Scotland, carriage free, at the following prices :-Gentlemen's, 788. per dozen, and Ladies', 668. per dozen; and also to pack and forward them, free of expense, to any agent in India, by the overland route, at the following additional rates, viz. 128. per dozen to Calcutta, Madras, and Ceylon, and lus. per dozen to Bombay.

EAST INDIA SUBSCRIPTION ROOM,

NO. 127, LEADENHALL STREET,

OPPOSITE THE EAST-INDIA HOUSE.)

W. M. BOYCE and CO. at the suggestion of several of their friends, have opened a "SUBSCRIPTION AND READING ROOM," at their Offices, 127, Leadenhall-street, opposite the India House. A large and handsome apartment is fitted up with every convenience and comfort. It will be supplied with all the Leading Journals and Periodicals of the day, particularly those treating on India and the East generally.

The advantages to Subscribers will be-a comfortable rendezvous for themselves and friends, in the most central part of the City; the certainty of obtaining every information connected with India up to the latest date; a commodious place to write letters, and a place of reference for letters and for general business.

Any Subscriber residing in India, or away from London, may appoint a proxy, who will be allowed all the advantages of such Subscriber. Terms of Subscription :-To Subscribers in India, one Rupee per mensem. Ditto, in England, one Guinea per annum.

GENERAL AGENCY, No. 121, Leadenhall-street (opposite the East-India House).

W. M. BOYCE and CO. in returning thanks to their friends and supporters for the liberal patronage already bestowed on them, beg to intimate that their offices are now established at No. 127, Leadenhall-street.

W. M. BOYCE and Co. continue to forward supplies and goods of every description to Messes, Families, and Individuals, on the most moderate terms, by the Cape or Overland. Passages to the Three Presidencies, or China, by sailing vessels, vid the Cape, or by steam, via the Red Sea, nego tiated on the most favourable terms.

Outfits for Officers appointed to the Civil, Military, Naval, or Medical Establishments in India, procured with every attention to economy consistent with the supplying of first-rate articles.

PAY and PENSIONS drawn and remitted to any part of Great Britain or the Continent. Luggage cleared and warehoused, and Parcels and Letters forwarded Overland to India.

In order to render their agency as efficient as possible, W. M. B. and Co. would call particular attention to the following points, which they consider of great importance, not only to their friends, but to the public generally.

It frequently occurs that gentlemen residing in India are compelled to send their wives and children home, and remain in India themselves. Circumstances often compel ladies and children to land in England without any one to receive and relieve them from the troubles and annoyances attendant on disembarkation, after a long and fatiguing voyage, and the clearing of their luggage through the Custom-house. In order to meet these cases, one of the Firm is prepared to attend any so situated, personally, and to escort them to their friends. Parties wishing to avail themselves of this accommodation should communicate their intention, in writing, by the Overland Mail, in sufficient time to admit of proper arrangements being made for their recep tion. Parents in India wishing to send their children to England for education, and unable to accompany them, may avail themselves of W. M. B. and Co.'s agency, who will undertake to receive them, place them at school, and act as guardians, if necessary. If requisite, reference can be given to parties who have already availed themselves of this arrangement. Inconvenience is often felt, and great expense incurred, in consequence of families arriving from India without having previously decided upon a place of residence. This may be obviated by timely application to BOYCE and CO., who are prepared to engage permanent or temporary residences for all parties arriving from India.

A residence of upwards of twenty years in India, the greater portion of which was passed in the East India Company's naval service, renders the head of the Firm peculiarly fitted for the business which is now sought, and which is merely reverted to here as a guarantee that the most scrupulous attention to the interests and wants of their supporters will be attended with the advantage of being able to impart, from actual experience, any informa tion which may be required relative to India.
