In these cases, the glands, internal and ex-of Pills, for complaints of the bowels, indigestion, &c. ternal, are subject to obstructions and discharges, which soon become incurable diseases. Emetics, bitters, steel, and mercury, are the medicines on which the frail hopes of the patients are placed. The VEGETABLE SYRUP of De Velnos, by correcting the blood and juices, healing the injured glands, restores their proper and regular fuuctions, and establishes the patient's health. The success of this admirable medicine has roused the vile avarice of impostors, and produced pills, &c. in a similar name; which injure the reputation of the real remedy, and miserably deceive the confidence of the afflicted. The Syrup is prepared in large quantities at this season; and sold by the proprietor, Mr. SwAINSON, No. 21, Frith-street, London, at 15s. per bottle. It is also sold by all the reputable Medicine Venders in the United Kingdom. [502

Admission, One Shilling; Children half price.

The Barnacles which form the present Exhibition, Tssess a neck upwards of two feet in length, resembling the windpipe of a chicken, each shell contains five pieces; and notwithstanding the many thousands which hang to eight inches of the tree, part of the fowl may be seen from each shell.-Sir Robert Moray, in the Wonders of Nature and Art, speaking of this singularly curious production, says, in every shell he opened, he found a perfect sea fowl, with a bill like that of a goose; feet like those of water fowl; and the feathers all plainly formed.
