These Manures have been proved, by carciul experiments extending over a period of from three to four years, to be one of the most re markable anduscfuldiscoveriesof modern times; and all who have tried them testify to their excellence and superiority over Guano, and all other known Manures and Fertilizers, They have been tried with perfect success ou Grass,* Wheat, and other grains; Peas, Beans, Potatoes. Asparagus, and other vegetables; Vines and Fruit-trees of all descriptions; Shrubs and Flowering Plants of every variety, and Young Trees. They stimulate the growth in an extraordinary degree, increase and beautify the foliage and bloom, and, as has been shown by numerous tests, DOUBLE THE PRODUCE of everything to which they have been applied. They do not burn or exhaust, the soil. The effects which they produce are permanent. They are a protective against Blights, Slugs, and other insects injurious to plants and vegetation. One ton is equal to more than two tons of Guano in power and offect. No ultimate deleterious results arise from, their use. Guaranteed pure and unadulterated. The above Patentee's advertisement, C. T. When is in a position, in some measure, to en dorse, he having used it with excellent results. Potatoes on ground that seven tons of Kidneys to the acre would have been a good crop, by the aid of this manure have raised ten tons per acre. In Horse-beans, about 50 bushels to the acre is considered good, but with this manure, over 75 bushels have been reaped, and in many other items, equnlly good results. The manure is easily applied, and entirely inoifensivo in its character, and is suitable, for a Lady's Flowi-r Garden, or tlie Farmer's Hold. C.T W. hoposto have constant supply, and at present in in a position to o'll'or it at £18 per ton : 20.i per owt.; and in Tin Canisters, at -is and lrj Gd each. C. T.

THE SCOTTISH HIGHLAND OIL is immediately obsorbed into the Blood, chang ing its dull black hue into a brilliant red, pos sessing a delicate nervous force, which may be felt as a tremulous motion in the muscles, which often instantly relieves a great many painful disorders, which render life unbearable. POTTIES SCOTTISH OIL Will be found invaluable in nearly every in stance, and for colonial use is one of the best Medicines ever introduced, especially in the following cases: — TRAVELLERS, who have to shift from bed to bed. SURVEYORS, who are exposed tojshbu vermin day and night. SHOOTING PARTIES, exposed to the tor ments of the tick. Members ov Cricket, Rowing, and Football Clubs, and Athletes, May with greet advantage use it for the muscles of the arms and limbs, rubbing nigh], and morn ing. It renders those muscles elastic and firm ; should the muscles be sore a good dressing will give immediate relief, and prevent the distres sing effects of stiffness, &c. POTTIES SCOTTISH OIL. A slight dressing night and morning will give complete immunity from fleas, mosquitoes, sand flics, ticks, and all kinds of bush vermin. The Oil when rubbed in all over the body or hands and face, dries at once, leaving a beautiful gloss on the skin, which, while it feels highly agree able, forms a perfect barricade.

I could not rest at night. My appetite was gone, my general health shattered, mid the pains through out my limbs and loins were constant and almost insupportable. I was induced to try your Rhcu matism Mixture, and found myself getting better alter taking three bottles of it.

Long experience has proved these famous remedies to be most effectual in curing either the dangerous maladies or the slighter com plaints which are more particularly incidental to the life of a miner, or those living in the bush. Occasional doses of these Pills will guard the system against those evils which so often beset the human race, viz.:—Coughs, colds, and dis orders of the liver and stomach—the frequent forerunners of fey r, dysentery, diarrhoea, and cholera. "Is the most effectual remedy for old sores wounds, ulcers, rheumatism, and all skin diseases ; in fact, when used according to the printed directions, it never fails to cure alike, deep and superficial ailments. BJSjThese Medicines may be obtained from all resp&otable Druggists and Storekeepers through out the civilised world, with directions for use in almost every language.
