A sr pee MOTHERS MOTHERS MOTHERS HE Best Medicine in the World for Infants and Young Children is ATKINSON and BARKER's ROYAL INFANTS' PRESERVATIVE, which has now been established nearly sixty years, and can be confidently recommended to both rich and poor as a perfectly safe and agreeable remedy. Itisa [Its] pleasant and efficacious carmi- [cam- cumulative] native, affording instant relief in, and effectually removing those ing and numerous complaints to which infants are liable-as affections of the bowels, flatulency, [flatulence] difficult teething, the thrush or frog, convulsions, rickets, &.; is an admirable assistant to nature during the progressof [progress of] the hoop- [hooping] ing cough, measles, the cow pox or vaccine inoculation, and safety immediately after birth. It is no misnomer cordial -no stupefactive, [defective] deadly narcotic but a veritable preservative of infants. Mothers would do well in always having this valuable medicine in the nursery. In short, whether this medicine enters the palace or the cottage, the proprietor feels an honest conviction of its power to assuage maternal pain for infant suffering-to convert that pain into gladness, that suffering into balmy repose. It is equally efficacious for children in English cholera, spasms, pain in the bowels, and other complaints of the intestines, owing to wind or obstructions in the digestive organs. It is much recommended by the faculty. It has proved an invaluable boon to thousands of the human family in various parts of the globe, establishing itself as a favourite in every clime, and earning a well-deserved reputation as one of the best family medicines on record.

THE ROAD TO HEALTH OLLOWAY'S [HOLLOWAY'S] PILLS CURE OF A DISORDERED LIVER AND BAD DIGESTION. Copy of a Letter from Mr. R. W. Kirkus, Chemist, 7, Prescot-street, Liverpool, dated 6th June, 1851. To Professor OLLOWAY, [HOLLOWAY] Sir,-Your Pills and Ointment have stood the highest on our sale list of Proprietary Medicines for some years. A customer, to whom I can refer for any enquiries, desires me to let you know the particulars of her case. She had been troubled for years with a disordered liver, and bad diges- [digest- digestion] tion. [ion] On the last occasion, however, the virulence of the attack was so alarming, and the inflammation set in so severely, that doubts were entertained of her not being able to bear up under it fortunately she was induced to try your Pills, and she informs me that after the first and each succeeding dose, she had great relief. She continued to take them, and although she used only three boxes, she is now in the enjoyment of perfect health. I could have sent you many more cases, but the above, from the severity of the attack, and the speedy. cure, I think, speaks much in favour of your astonishing Pills. (Signed) R. W. Kirxvs. [CVS] AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF RHEUMATIC FEVER IN VAN DIEMEN'S LAND. Copy of a Letter inserted in the Hobart Town Courier, of the lst [last] March, 1851, by Major J. Walch. Margaret M'Connigan, [M'Consign] 19 years of age, residing at New Town, had been suffering from a violent rheumatic fever for upwards of two months, which had entirely deprived her of the use of her limbs during this period she was under the care of the most eminent medical men in Hobart Town, and by them her case was considered hopeless. A friend prevailed upon her to try Holloway's celebrated Pills, which she consented to do, and in an incredible short space of time they effected a perfect cure. CURE OF A PAIN AND TIGHTNESS IN THE CHEST AND STOMACH OF A PERSON 84 YEARS OF AGE. From Messrs. Thew and Son, proprietors of the Lynn Adver- [Aver- Advertiser] tiser, [tires] who can vouch for the following statement. To Professor OLLOWAY; [HOLLOWAY] Aug. 2nd, 1851. Sir,-I desire to bear testimony to the good effects of Holloway's Pills. For some years I suffered severely from a pain and tightness in the stomach, which was also accom- [com- accompanied] panied [pained] by a shortness of breath that prevented me from walking about. I am 84 years of age, and notwithstanding my advanced state of life, these Pills have so relieved me, that I am desirous that others should be made acquainted with their virtues. I am now rendered, by their means, comparatively active, and can take exercise without incon- [income- inconvenience] venience [convenience] or pain, which I could not do betore. [before] (Signed) Henry Cor, North-street, Lynn, Norfolk. AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF THE GRAVEL, AND A MOST DANGEROUS LIVER COMPLAINT. Copy of a Letter addressed to J. K. Heydon, Esgq., [Esq] Sydney, New South Wales, dated February 25, 1851. Str,-A [St,-A] Mr. Thomas Clark, a settler at Lake George, was for a considerable time seriously afflicted with a com- [complaint] plaint of the Liver, together with the Gravel. Ilis [Ills] medical attendants, after trying all their skill, candidly told him that his case was hopeless, and any further efforts useless. In this situation, and when expecting every day would ter- [te- terminate] minate [minute] his existence, a friend recommended him to try Holloway's Pills, and asa forlorn hope hedid [headed] so, The first dose gave him considerable relief, he therefore persevered in taking them according to the directions, and is now restored to perfect health. He will feel great pleasure in confirming this statement, or even make an affidavit to the - same effect, should it be required. (Signed) Wa. JongEs, [Jones] Proprietor of the Goulburn Herald, New South Wales. WONDERFUL EFFICACY OF HOLLOWAY'S PILLS IN CASES OF DROPSY.

DISEASES OF THE CHEST. R. WM. BURLAND, Surczon [Surgeon] and Ac- [Act] f COUCHEDR, [couched] 158, Park Lane, Leeds, celebrated throughout England for the very successful treatment of Diseases of the Chest and Abdomen, viz. -Consumption (Phthisis), (Phrases] and all Diseases of the Lungs, Diseases of the Liver, Stomach, Mesentery, Heart, Spleen, and Kidneys; Female Complaints, &c., &c. Having cured himself of consumption nine years ago, caused by the too arduous duties of a public medical ap- [appointment] pointment, [Ointment] and hundreds of cases since, both of consump- [consumption- consumption] tion [ion] and other diseases, by this scientific and strictly harmless method (known only to himself), after having been declared incurable by the most eminent medical men, including the following physicians in London, viz. -Sir James Clarke, physician to her Majesty; Drs. [Dr] Walsh, Wil- [Williams] liams, [liam] Watson, Roe, Forbes, and others. To persons pre- [predisposed] disposed to consumption, as prevention is better than cure, it is of the greatest importance that a few doses of the medicine should be taken occasionally, especially after colds, which will arrest the progress and remove the pre- [premonitory] monitory symptoms of this cruel and, hitherto considered, fatal disease. In addition to diseases of the chest and abdomen, the above treatment has been found equally suc- [such- successful] cessful [useful] in most chronic diseases, attended with debility and emaciation, or internal or external ulceration, &c., &c.

THE CHRONICLE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1852. - THE MAJORITY OF SIR J. W. RAMSDEN, BARONET. THE arrangements for celebrating the majority of the youthful heir to the Huddersfield Estates have under- [undergone] gone several modifications and alterations from what we gave as a general outline in our last; nor are those arrangements as yet, we believe, to be considered as finally settled, it being the desire of the young baronet's advisers to meet the wishes, not only of their own immce- [ice- immediate] diate [date] tenantry, but of the inhabitants generally on the estate, in the festive proceedings intended to inaugurate Sir John's majority. With this object in view they have already modified their arrangements in several impor- [import- important] tant [tan] particulars, among the most notable of which is not to defer the Tuesday's market, as at first proposed, but to celebrate the event on the day following. This point was readily conceded on it being represented to the resident agent that the postponement of the market would materially interfere with the arrangements of the merchants, manufacturers, and tradesmen of the district, as was also a suggestion for a more liberal pro- [provision] vision in the dinner tickets to be presented to each of the tenants. We also believe that other suggestions, made by some of the public authorities and by the leading inhabitant millowners, [milliners] which have been made more recently, are also receiving the best consideration of the young baronet's representatives, and we doubt not that any further hints which may be thrown out at the public meeting on Wednesday next, will not be without their due weight and influence on the same parties,- [parties] foremost among which we trust will be some due pro- [provision] vision for the rational entertainment and amusement not only of the young baronet's immediate tenantry, but for the great bulk of the inhabitants also, in whose welfare the landlord of this estate cannot but feel a lively iuterest, [interest] and with whose prosperity his own interests as a landlord are so closely allied. We have reason to know that the great bulk of the millowners [milliners] are anxious that their hands should enjoy a holiday on the occasion, without any reduction in their well-earned wage, and we also believe thas [has] it is in con- [contemplation] templation [temptation] to secure to them some agreeable memento of the event, not only in the way of suitable recreations, but also by providing for them some ample entertain- [entertainment] ment, [men] and thus place them in an equally agreeable position with their more affluent fellow -townsmen, These, and many other alterations and extensions of the programme are, we have reason to know, in con- [con] templation, [temptation] and, until the arrangements approach to 4 more final character it must be obvious that an comments on the mode in which this loc [lock] tival [vital] is to be celebrated would be premature. Og this, however, we feel assured, though it Would be unreasonable to expect that any final programme meet with perfect uuanimity [unanimity] of feeling, that it not only the wish of the young baronet's representatives but also one in which he has expressed a lively desing [design] that the festive proceedings connected with his majority may be of a rational and recreative [re creative] character, a available to all classes. Impressed with this feeling the High Constable hag already made several suggestions, which haye [hay] 4 readily concurred in by the agents of the estate Otherg [Other] equally deserving attention are embodied in an exc, [ex] ent [end] letter from the same gentleman in our present num [sum] and there will doubtless be further practical developed at the approaching public meeting calle, [call] for adopting an address of congratulation to the Founs [Found] baronet. With such a spirit of unanimity and vading [Fading] all classes we may safely predict that each oe our fellow-townsmen will have it in his power celebrate the day as a general holiday, withou [with] feeling of independence sacrificed or moral violated. -- A CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FOR Hrp. [Hop] DERSFIELD. [HUDDERSFIELD] A reference to the letter of Mr. Mac. LiNsoN, [London] inserted in another part of this dq.' 'paper, in answer to the queries of a corresponiden [correspondence] ber [be] hinty [Hunt] Y Der. 'a PEQELple [People] ' poy [oy] in our last, as to the reason why further steps hara not been taken to form in Huddersfield a Chambe [Chamber] of Commerce, will show that it is by no means intended to let the project pass off as a dropped motion, but that it is purposed that enervetic [energetic] action shall be promoted when the proper time arrives. We are sure the reason assigned by Mr. for the seeming delay which has occurred since the matter was placed as it were in his hands will be felt to be a most cogent one; when to the fact stated by Mr. the attention and time of the gentlemen whose co-operation in the formation of the contemplated association have been devoted to the heavy iuties [duties] cast upon them by the lamentable disaster Holmfirth,-we call to remembrance the other taet, [tate] that the general election absorbed all the attention which might otherwise have been lirecteck [directed] to the accomplishment of this particular object, wa are sure that all interested in the success of the effort will feel glad that action was not taken unter [under] circumstances which would almost have ensured failure. It is obvious that the time has not yet been, since this project of a Chamber of Commerce was mooted, when there was any prospect that it could be prosecuted with success, from the fact that other engagements precluded our commercial men from engaging in its formation and organisation. The seasonable time however approacheth, [approach] when this duty, which commercial men owe to themselves and the advancement of their own interests (gene- [generally] rally speaking) can be undertaken. Of the desirability and of the advantages of suck an association as the one contemplated it is searvely [safely] necessary that we should speak. They must be obvious to all engaged in commercial transactions, Ts it not desirable that the commercial, manutac- [Manta- manufacturing] turing, and trading classes, should often meet together-should often commune together-anl [together-an] by well-directed general effort secure for the district every facility of inter-communication, and every advantage possible for the development of its resources, the most beneficial application of its skill, and the encouragement of its enterprising industry Are there not questions of great im- [in- importance] portance [importance] to the trade of the district, upon which no efficent [efficient] action can be taken for want of the requisite machinery, and the necessary organisation, and mutual understanding Where is the com- [commercial] mercial [commercial] library, stored with works of authority upon commercial matters, that the commercial men of this district can resort to Every parlia- [Parliament- parliamentary] mentary [monetary] session-sees poured out, from prolitie [polite] com- [committees] mittees [committees] and commissions of enquiry, reports and evidence of the most direct importance to the trading classes but where are these to be seen Measures deeply affecting commerce and manutae- [minute- manufactures] tures, [Tues] both at home and abroad, are at times intro- [introduced] duced [duce] to the attention of the legislature and pro- [progress] gress [grass] in legislation is often deferred to give time to those interested to consider the proposed schemes, and express opinions regarding them but where (in Huddersfield) is the place where these schemes may be found and examined A Chamber of Commerce may be made to supply all these deficiencies, and many others, which it would be needless to particularise. It would give the means for simultaneous and united action upon the ques- [questions] tions [tins] of the day affecting commerce, whether of a local or national character. We confidently trust that a short time will see an organisation of the nature above indicated in full operation in the town of Huddersfield. 2 & and hat Se COLLIERY EXPLOSIONS AND THE MEANS OF PREVENTION. ARTICLE I , In our last number we drew attention to the recently-issued report of the Select Committee of the House of Commons, appointed last session 0] enquire into the causes of the frequency of explo- [expel- explosions] sions [Sons] in coal mines, with a view to prevent the appalling loss of life arising from them and after setting forth the almost incredible fact, that the loss of lives in the coal mines of Great Britain amount to the enormous number of one thousand annually, we detailed some of the general conclu [conclusion] sions [Sons] set forth in that report, such as the insecurity (nay, under certain circumstances, positive danger) of the Davy Lamp-a fact established by experi- [experience- experiments] ments [rents] performed before the committee-and also the fact, established as well by experiment, that the only means of safety in mines from explosions of fire damp, which the present state of science affords, is, efficient ventilation. After setting forth from the said report these general conclusions of the Select Committee, we promised to give some- [somewhat] what in detail the particular measures the com- [committee] mittee [matter] recommended to secure this due and ventilation, and to surround the miners when at work in the bowels of the earth, with all the means of safety worthy of being relied upon. That pro- [promise] mise [Miss] we now hasten to redeem. As above indicated, the first and most essential measure for securing the comparative satety [safety] of mines, is efficient ventilation. That isa point set tled [led] in the mind of everybody who has at all examined into the question. A current of fresh air must be continually kept up, and sent through all the workings of a mine, even to its remotest part, so that the inflamable [infallible] and explosive gases as they are given off from the chinks and fissures the mine, may become diluted below the explosive point, and be also carried away by the current up the up-cast shaft. This is the simple process which has to be kept up-an adequate current vf air, and in constant action. The question then presents itself, how or by what means can this current of air be most effectually kept up To this question the members of the Select Committee addressed themselves; and on this point, as well as upon others, they did not content themselves with mere theory. They did not content them- [themselves] selves with the evidence only of parties in charge of colliery workings, and who have in use parti- [part- particular] cular [circular] modes of ventilation. They heard this evi- [vi- evidence] dence, [dene] and paid all due attention to it, as it le- [reserved] served. But they also tested by actual experimen [experience] the several systems of ventilation recommended '0 [ their notice. They resorted to the proper means to obtain practical proof of the relative etficiencY [efficiency] of these several proposed modes of ventilation. One result speedily followed from these experi- [experience- experiments] ments. [rents] The committee immediately and unani- [unanimously] mously [Mosley] came to the conclusion that any systex [system] 4 Ja
