HENRY RUSSELL ( from America ) will jjive his VOCAL and PICTORIAL ENTERTAINMENT , entitled the FAR WEST , or the Emigrant ' s Progress from the Old World to the New , at the Royal Olympic Theatre , commencing on Monday , April 14 , and four successive nights . Mr . Russell will introducehis new compositions— " The parting tear ;' " Cheer , boys , cheer ; do more of idle sorrow ; " " Gaily goes the ship when the wind blows fair ;' " Land , land , to the west , to the west , to the land of the free ; " " The Falls of Ni-. igara , " &c , and several of his favourite compositions . The principal features of this entertainment are by no means intended to be looked upon solely . in the light of a mere entertaining exhibition . It is intended to instruct as well as to amuse ; and to instruct , moreover , in one of the most profoundly and practically important subjects which can be offered to the notice of the English people . The succession of pictures , constituting the Exhibition , are no mere fancy sketches . They do not represent scenes which few or none save rich tourists or professional travellers can ever hope to visit . They do not appeal to the limited interest or the partial knowledge which may be found to exist among certain classes , with reference to the architectural beauties or the historic associations of the countries delineated ; on the contrary , they are thoroughly practical pictures—transcripts from the daily lives of hundreds of thousands of our countrymen and womenrepresenting scenes which hundreds of thousands more are thinking of encountering—scenes in which practicable and reliable information is always in eager demand—scenes , in fact , appealing directly to the deepest interests and most cherished prospects of the multitudes who are daily making up their minds to peek better fortunes and brighter days upon the boundless plains , and by the clear broad rivers of the West . Mr . Russell will perform upon Messrs . Kirktnan and Son ' s Grand Fonda Piano . Doors open at Half-past Seven , to commence at Eight o ' clock . Stalls , 3 s . ; dress circle , 2 s . ; pit , Is . ; gallery , 6 il . Private boxes , £ 1 Is ., and Us . ( id . each . Tickets , places , and private boxes to bo had of Mr . W .

CUIIES FOR THE UNCURED ! HOLL O WAY'S OINTMENT . —An exlraordinary Cure of Scrofula or King ' s Evil . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . IL Allioay , 209 , High-street , Cheltenham , dated the S 2 nd of January , 1850 . To Professor Hollom'AY . "Sik , —My eldest son , when about three yenraof ngc , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling- in the neck , -which , after a short time , broke out into an Ulcer . An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of Scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing- in virulence , when , besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes , which was expected to break . During- the whole of the time my suffering- boy hail received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical Gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital , where o : ie of the Surgeons said that li « would amputate the left arm , but that the blood was so impure that , if that limb were takon off , it would be then even impossible to suhdue the diucaHe . In this desperate state I determined to give your Pills anil Ointment a trial , and , after two months' perseverance in tlmir use , the tumour gradually be ^ an to disappear , and the liscbarg-e from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased , and at the expiration of eight months they were perfectly healed , and the boy thoroughly restored to the blessings of health , to the . astonishment of : i large circle of acquaintances , who could testify to the truth of this miraculous case . Tlirne years have now elapsed without any recurrence to the , malady , » ml the boy is now as healthy as heart can wish . Under these circumstanced I consider tliat 1 should be truly ungrateful were I not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every othvr means had failed .

A delicious and wholesome beverage to all ; it is a most essential article of diet , and especially adapted to those under homoeopathic treatment . It is not cloying- to the appetite , and agrees with the most delicate and irritable digestive organs . It is purifying to the blood , soothing and agreeable to the nervous system , lubricating- to the alimentary canal , and proves , at the same time , invigorating and refreshing . TAYLOR BROTHERS confidently challenge comparison between this and any of the so-called homoeopathic cocoa offered to the public . A single trial will suffice . Observe , particularly , upon each packet , the name , TAYI OR BROTHERS , LON DON , whose advantages over other makers arises from the paramount extent of their manufacture ; larger experience , greater command of markets , matured judgment in selection , and skill in preparation , enabling them to offer every kind of plain and fancy COCOA AND CHOCOLATK , a 3 regards both quality and price , upon unequalled terms . They are also inventors and exclusive proprietors of the SOLUBLE AND DIICTKTIC COCOAS . The latter is strongly recommended by the faculty to invalids , convalescents , and dyspeptics , as most nutritious and easy of digestion , and being free from the exciting properties of tea and colfee , makes it a most desirable refreshment after a late e \ ening . All other makes of these are spurious imilationi . These standard Preparations , which WILL KL'HP GOOD IN ANY CLIMATE , may be had , wholesale , » t tbo Mills , 211 BRICK-LANK , LONDON , and retail from all Grocors , Tea Dealers , and Oilmen . CAUTION . —To prevent disappointment see that the name ' * Taylor Brothers" is upon every packet , there being many vile noxious imitations of the KOLUIiLK and DIETETIC COCOAS calculated to bring Cocoa into dixrejiuite .

" Laurie ' s" and all other workg on HorncBoparhy , together with cases and tubes , sent post-free to all parts of the kingdom . Dispensaries and the profession supplied on liberal terms . Just published , and may be had free of charge , a small pamphlet on Homoeopathy , by J . Silk Bucking-ham , isq . MAWSON'S HOMOEOPATHIC COCOA . —The Cocoa-nut , o r nib . contains a very large proportion of nutritive matter , consisting of a . farinaceous substance , and of a rich and pleasant oil . This oil is esteemed on account of its being-less liable than any other oil to rancidity . Homoeopathic physicians are united in their recommendation of cocoa as a beverage ; and the testimonials from other sources are numerous and of the highest character . It was so highly esteemed by Linnaeus , the chief of Naturalists , that he inamed it Theobroma— " Food for the Gods . " Dr . Pareira says , " It is a very nourishing beverage , devoid of the ill properties possessed by both tea and coffee . " Dr . Epps , the popular lecturer on Physiology , gays : —" Mothers , while suckling , should never take Coffee ; they should suckle on Cocoa . I have the testimony of mothers who have so suckled , and they state that they found , with Cocoa without Beer , they produced quite sufficient milk , and the children suckled with such diet were in better health than those suckled on a previous occasion , when Ueer , and Coffee , and Tea formed the liquid part of their diet . " The same author adds : — " Cocoa is the best of all flavoured rfrinks . It is highly nutritious . " Dr . Hooper says : —• ' This food is admirably calculated for the sick , and to those who are in health it is a luxury . " Many persons have been turned against the use of Cocoa and Chocolate from having tried the many , and very generally inferior article vended at the grocers' shops under that name . The preparation here offend by JOHN MAWSON contains all the nutritiom properties of the nut without any objectionable admixture . It is , therefore , recommended as an agreeable and wholesome substitute for Coffee , t . i which it is certainly much superior , as it is also to the Cocoas sold as " Soluble Cocoa , " " Flake Cocoa . " &c . It is light , easy of digestion , agreeable , nutritious , and requires little time or trouble in preparing for use . Testimonial— " Having used the HomcDnpathic Cocoa prepared by Mr . Mawson , I have no hesitatiorwn giving it my fullest recommendation "—Thomas Hayle , M . D .
