Ai)vERTistMENTS.-Adverii,ertit.nt,e are of the greatest coo- itderaMon to all commercial nations, facilitating the operations of commerce, by bringing togeiher idlers and buyers. The columns of a newspaper afford the means of every man commu- ilicating to the multitude ihe invoice of his wares—a catalogue of his merchandize and whilst ministering to the wants of olherl, lie gleans the information where to obtain that which he himself requires. The Newspaper-" the map of busy life, i's fluciua tions, and its vast eo near a,i a forms all where nearly every- thing is to be obtained, and where the sopeifiaous may best be disposed of. Advertisement* are the only oraclea by which the trader can push the sale of his commodities into notice, the only means of realising, in a short period, such remuneration as pro inises relaxation from the toil and anxiety consequent on trade occupation, by so largely increasing his business, that a short period of close application will enab'e him to secure an inde- pendence, which formerly took years of labour, perhaps a whole life, to accomplish, though distinguished by the most industrious and frugal habits. To the enterprising, advertising offers the most enticing prospects. Money judiciously expended must realize remuneration, if there be any merit in what is put forth for publicity. The public are prompt to patronize when the appeal is well-founded and it is to be remembered, however extended a private coooexion or circle of » party or company may be, its operations, without the aid of advertising, must necessarily be ciroumscribed. By advertising in I"eal journals, the business announcements of tradesmen of the town and neigh bourhood, without trouble to themselves, at braught before all elassesttf inhabitants, at the mere cost of 'be price of insertion. Advertisers arc mainly concerned in the fjiiteoreff newspapers, and in their growing circulation. "Thf great majority of news- paper readers to the country can, indeed, only be approached by advertisers through the medium of their own local jouruais. Newton,

LONDON MARKETS, &C. 1
LONDON MARKETS, &C. 1 LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MAV 3 Mort of the country markets held on Saturday were but moderately supplietl with English wheat, for all kinds of which the demand ruled steady at full prices. At the outpottsvery little business was transacted in foreign wheats. Rialting barley was scarce, and quite as dear. Grinding and distilling sorts moved off slowly. The malt trade was less active; but good sound oats, beans, and peas were film. Indian corn and flour sold" at full currencies. The latest accounts from New York are to the effect that the value of the finest flour had an upwardtendenyc, with steady shipments to the United Kingdom. Tie arrivals of Engl'sh grain up to our market last week were snixll. The quantity of English wheat received fresh up to our market to-day was limited, and prices were fully Is per qr. lower than on Monday last. We had a firm, though not to say brisk, inquiry for oats, the value of which was supported io every instance. The stock of foreign he-e is trifling. Most kinds of beans were held firmly, but no advance was noticed in prices. White and maple peas were the lurn dearer. The nominal piice of the best town-uiaue flour was 40s per 2801 bs. Shillings per quarter.

MONDAY, MAY 3. The fine rains which fell in most p^rts of England, last week, having induced many of the glaziers to withhold a portion of their stock for the present, the supply of home-fed beasts on sale this morning was comparatively limited, whilst its general quafity was not to say first rate. There being a slight decrease in the arrivals of sheep, the mutton tiade ruled tolerably steady, and last week's currencies well supported- We were tairly supplied with lambs, wliich changed hanis slowly, a? bart-ly the late decline.

REMARKS. The metal market has showu symptoms of considerable im- provement in prioe since last week, and a large business has been transacted in iron, copper, and tin, at advancing rates. Bar iron continues film at ki 7s 6d per too, hee on board in Wales. Large orders for rails are in the market; offers of E4 17s 6d free on board in Wales, have been refosed,and the price may be quoted firm at £0 5s per ton, with an upward tendency from the extensive inquiries made for this description of iron, a great im. provement i? anticipated by the trade. A slight advance in prices of pig-iron may.be quoted there are rather more buyers than last week at a shade better; we quote No. 1 at 36s 6d f.o.b. in Glasgow, nett cash. Spelter has been very quiet, without any transactions to report. Copper--none to be had at the standard price. Offert ofjE2 per ton above the last selling prices have been refused—an ad- vance is expected. Lead continues very firm, and in good request. British lill is -03 per ton better. E. I. is advancing. 100 tons Straits sold at 81s 6d, and a quantity of Banca at 839 6d per cwt. Tin plates sell largely, but prices continue unaltered.

Fur gout, sciatica, rheumatism, tip doloreux, erysipelas, dropsy, sciolula, loss 01 h iir and teetli, depression of spirits, hlushing. incapacity for society, study, or business, confusion, giddiness, drowsiness, sleep without refreshment, leai, nervousness, and even insanity itself, when (as is of en the case) arising from, or combined with urinary diseases, they are unequalled.

"THE MEDICAL ADVISER is indeed a boon to the pub- lic, as it has the two-fold advantage of plainness, and being written by a skilful and duly qualified man, who evidently well understands his subject."— W. Times. "This is a work we would recommend to all; the information therein conveyed is really essential to those of either sex who contemplate mariiage."—Record. Many a man,who,unmanied and miserable, is now enduring in silent sorrow the penalties of former folly (perhaps committed, in ignorance), had he possessed such a book as this, would have been a happy husband, a honoured parent, and useful member of society."—B. A. Dispatch.

One about a foot long, had swallowed another nearly as long as itself. but not having taken the precaution to bite off it head, it commenced scratching when it got down, and actually scratched a hole in the side of the other, through which it emerged in safety, while the voracious one died from the injury, and was speedily gobbled up in turn by his iela- tions-" 1 his must be the story of ths Kilkenny cats over atr tin. SIR JAMES BROOKE ON PIRACY,— At a dinner given to Sir James, at the London Tavero, on Friday, ihe following obser- vations were made by him in reference to piracy :-The subject of piracy was a most difficult one, and one which h,d given him more trouble than any o'her. He found that the inhabitants of Sarebas and Sekarran, or, in other words, the Malajs and the Dyaks, were in the habit of nuking piratical attacks upon the peaceable inhabitant), carrying off their properly, and destroying everything upon which they could lay their band., and he determined that the peaceable inhabitant mu-t be pro- tected. Supposing there were bordes of bandits continually making invasions on thtir coasts from Brest and Cherbourg, carrying off iheir wives and children into slavery, and destroying their property, what would they du1 If they could not make the deaf adder'* listen to reason, he did not believe there was a man to be found who would see his daughters dishonoured and his sons murcered-who would submit to the indignity, and go about proclaiming to the world their cowardice aod shame amongst men-he did not believe there was a man to be found from one end 01 England to the other, who would not rise and determine by force to put down he marauders. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Had not the na'ives of Boineo-the peaceablt- and industrious oatives-auffered from these pirates and wlioi had been done, was to sweep the seas of these pirates, and make the law honoured and respected, by showing that it could pro tect the innocent, and was powerful against the guilty. (Loud cheers.) As at home, if the smuggler resisted the law, shot and shell did the work of pulling him down; and if a felon attempted to escape from a policeman, a tap on the hoad m..de him qUlel-( laughter )-so, in Borneo, if the pirates wuuld not be quiet otherwise, they were made to be so. (Chee:s.) The north-western portion of the metropolis was visi!ed on Sunday with a heavy storm of wind and rain, with large flakes of snow, lollowed by a very uncomfortable sleet. The wind blew from the north-east, and the glass was as low as 40. The body of a respectably-dressed man was found on the pavement of Banhmy-court, Long acre, on Sunday morning, and conveyed to King's College Hospital, hut life was found to be extinct. I he body has not been identified, and as the court in question is inhabited by some of the iowest-characte a in London, the occurrence beais a suspicious appearance. It is since been ascertained that deceased was killed in a brothel ad- 'oining.
