The first dose will give relief in twenty minutes. This is no fiction, for they have done it in thousands of cases. The Proprietor of these Pills having obtained (at great expense) a patent for them, he challenges the whole world to produce a taedicine equal to them, for removing the above com- plaints, and restoring the patient to sound and lasting health. Every sufferer is earnestly invited to try one box of these Pills, and they will be acknowledged to be WORTH A GUINEA A BOX. For females of all ages these Pills are invaluable, as a few doses of them carry off all gross humours, open all obstructions, and bring about all that is required. No temale should be without them. There is no medicine to be found to equal BEECHAM'S PILLS for removing *ny obstruction or irregularity of the system. If taken iccording to the directions given with each box, they will soon restore females of all ages to sound and robust health. For. weak stomach, impaired digestion, and nil dis orders of the liver, they act, like "MAGIC," and a few doses will be found to work wonders upon the most important > rgans in the human machine. They strengthen the whole muscular system, restore the long lost complexion, bring back the keen edge of appetite, and arouse into action with the ROSEBCJl) of health the whole physical energy of the human frame. These are FACTS" admitted by thousands, embracing all classes of society, and one of the best guarantees to the nervous and debilitated is, BEECHAM'S PILLS have the largest sa:e of any patent medicine in the for Id.

PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT. Under the Settled Land Act The Estates of Sir Richard Mansel Mansel, Bart., in the Counties of Surrey and Carmarthen. The SURREY K.STATE consisLs of most important and valuable Freehold ^Building Properties, siluate at Wim- bledon, and covering an extensive area, and partly facing Wimbledon Common. Also well-secured Ground Rents in the Parish of Wimbledon, producing aboutX700 per annum. Also the Weir Courtney Estate, in the Parish of Lingtield, about midway between London and Brighton, only two and a half miles from East GrinsteadTown and Railway Station, and abutting on the Dorman's Land Railway Station, on the L.B. and S.C.R. Oxted Branch. It COIll- prises about 584 acres of valuable arable, pasture, and wood land, which lies compactly together, and is intersected by capital roads. The CARMARTHENSHIRE PROPERTIES, which will be ottered first, comprise the Cwmgigfran Estate, situate in the Parishes of Llangunnor and Llanarthney; the Mansel Arms Estate, situate in the parishes of Llandarrog and Llanarthney the Freehold Farm of Ffynon Wen or Maesycae, in the Parish of Llanfynydd; a small Freehold Property at Ferryside, a favourite watering-place and summer resort, embracing cottages, houses. and land; a number of Houses in the Borough of Carmarthen, let on building leases, and a Building Field, known as Llwynwitch, also in the Borough of Carmarthen. The Cwmgigfran Estate is situate only mites from Carmarthen within easy reach of other important towns, while it is intersected by capitally-constructed and well-kept roads. The soils are of uu exceptionally fertile nature, and particularly well ailapted for grazing purposes. The farmhouses are of a substantial character, and the outbuildings attached tw them in every way suited to the requirements of the tenants, This Estate, including the Farm of Ffynon Wen, covers an area of about 713 acres, and being all let produces an iricomw of upwards of £650 per annum. The Mansel Arms Estate is situate about eight miles from Carmarthen and Llanelly respectively, 19 miles from Swansea, and 3i from Llanarth- ney Railway Station. As in the case of the foregoing Estate, this property is excellently roaded, and has soils of a pro- ductive nature. The homesteads also are in good repair, and afford every accommodation required by tne tenants. It extends to about 488 acres, anu (with the exception of the woodlands), being all let, produces an annual rental of upwards of £450. Both the above properties offer to a sporting proprietor great advantages in the way of hunting, shooting, and fishing, and both are extremely well adapted for the breeding and rearing of partridges and pheasants, of which there is now on the estate a very good number. The Auctioneers desire to call particular attention to thedesirabUity of these properties as safe and improving investments. Tile farms are in the hands of a first-class, hard-working, aud enter- prising tenantry, and the rents have stood admirably the test of the seasons of agricultural depression through which farmers have had recently to pass; and it is a fact well worthy of npecial remark that even now on and in the neighbourhood of these properties there is keen competition for the occupation of any vacant farm. The property at Ferryside covers an area of nearly four acres, and now pro- duces a rental of about £53 per annum, of which about £i8 are ground rents; the remainder is the rent of a field which is estimated to produce nearly ten times its present rent if developed by an enterprising capitalist. The Car- marthen Borough Property consists of Ground Rents, secured on Public-houses, Dwelling-houses, Shops, and Places of Worship, amounting in the aggregate to nearly X120 a year, and an important Field situate in the town, extending 4a. Or. 19p" or thereabouts, and now let to the Carmarthen Athletic Club at a rental of £25 per annum. This Field also is well Buited for Building Purposes, and it is estimated that, if properlrlaid out, it would produce a ground rental of nearly £ SS per annuiu. TMTESSKS.

The following are a few of the great number of favourable criticisms. For Press notices see Red Dragon for March:— rom E. J. NEWELL, Esq., M.A., Cardiff Proprietary College. Allow me to express the very great pleasure which I have received from a perusal of your valuable work on The Literature of Wales." As all Englishman, possessing only the most elementary acquaintance with the Welsh language, I have hitherto found myself almost wholly debarred from gaining an insight into the character of a great part of the inte- resting literature of the Principality, aud to me, therefore, such a work as yours is of especial value. You, sir, will have done a great and abiding service to Wales and the cause of education in general if you dispel some of that igno- rance regarding Welsh subjects which eveu highly-educated Englishmen are frequently not ashamed to acknowledge, I had gained from reading the Mabinogion and from other sources all idea of the wealth of Welsh literature iu romance, and of the infusion of Celtic glamour, to use Mr. Matthew Arnold's term. which is found in almost every line of some periods, but I was not prepared for the exceedingly high quality of some of the religious poetry of the Middle Ages by which I have been struck in reading your work. buch a poem as that magnificent one of Madog ab Gwaiter, which you quote on Page 15. would, in my numbie opinion, take exceedingly high rank if compared with the religious poetry of any nation, not excluding even the divinely-inspired lyrics of the Hebrews. I think, sir. that your publishers are to be congratulated on having succeeded iu making the typo- graphy, binding, paper, and general appearance of your work worthy of the excellence of the text. FROM REV. E. DAVIES, B.A., CWMTILLERY. I much admire your work, and have read it with interest. FROM REV. D. WILLIAMS. RECTOR OF LLANDYRNOG. You have done signal service to the Welsh people, their language, and literature. FROM W. BOWEN ROWLANDS, ESQ., Q.C. I congratulate you upon your work. FROM MR. D. T. EVANS, CARDIFF. I have read your book with much interest, and consider it a most valuable addition to the history and the literature of Wales. It must have entailed upon you a vast amount of labour. FROM THE RECTOR OF VAYNOR. Mr. Wilkins's criticism on the character, political and re igious influence of each writer ÚI, 1 think, of great value. WASTE J> A P E II FOR SALE.

I should have saved tive years of continued eutiering. I used to feel all the changes of the atmos- pliere in my bones, but that is entirely gone; in fact, I feel like a new man. I began to think I should never get well, for I had attended St. Mary's Hospital :>nd Welbeck-street Dispensary, under Dr. Norman, Dr. Adam Clark, Dr. Allchin, head physician of West- minster Hospital, and several eminent doctors. My suffering was simply horrible, and I have many times wished myself dead. After taking the mixture for ten days people that knew me were astonished at my appearance. I have taken just two 11s. bottles of your Blood Mixture, and they have effected this wonderful cure.
