LONDON MARKETS, &c. 1 LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY, FEB. 20. Considerable inactivity prevailed in the demand for wheat in the country markets held on Saturday, notwith- standing that the supplies on offer were but moderate. All spring corn—the receipts of which were on the increase moved off heavily, and the currencies had a downward tendency. The quantity of English wheat received fresh up to our market to day, coastwise, were very moderate, and in market to day, coastwise, were very moderate, and in middling condition. By land carriage, the supply was small, and the show of samples was, consequently, limited. Notwithstanding that the news from Russia is very war- like, and that we had a fair number of country millers in attendance, the demand for most kinds of wheat^or home produce was in a sluggish state, at last Monday s prices. For forward delivery, so little was doing, that the quota- tions were almost nominal. „ .N ew UJd. Shillings per Quarter.

All kinds sold readily at the extreme rates of Monday, and a clearance was readily effected. Most of the importers of foreign wheat demanded more money; hence, the business doing was not extensive. Prices, however, were fully supported. We have an improved inquiry for barley, at extreme rates. There was only a moderate inquiry for malt on former terms. The oat trade was firm, and there was more disposition shown to purchase flower. SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, FEBRUARY, 20. Owing to the strong gales of Saturday, several steamers laden with stock have not made their appearance conse quently the show of foreign beasts, sheep, and calves here to-day was limited. f v From our own grazing districts the receipts of beasts fresh up this morning were very moderate but in fair ave- rage condition. The attendance of buyers being good, the beef trade ruled brisk, at an advance in the prices obtained on Monday last of 2d per 8lbs, and a good clearance was effected. The primest Scots were worth 4s lOd^per 8lbs. Very few calves were on offer. 1 he veal t inactive at last week's currency, i he highest price was 5s 4d per 81bs. I s. d. s. d. „. s- u, »• u.

REMARKS. Rails-Some sales are reported, and the market is look- inn more healthy. Scotch pigs have fluctuated from 78s to 79s1 during the past week; the market leaves off with sellers at 78s 6d cash. Spelter is less active there are buyers atf23 los, and sellers at jC24 on the spot. Copper continues in good request. Lead is very firm, with an upward tendency. Tin-plates are in good demand. LIVERPOOL, FEB. 1G.—An active state of the Iron trade has existed during the week, and full prices have been freely given. Scotch pig iron being largely held, specula- tion fluctuates with the political changes of the day. The market has been pretty steady all the week, at 78s to 79s per ton for warrants, f o b. at Glasgow, but the market closes heavily, at 78s 6d, with buyers shy. American brands are in demand. No change in Tin plates, which are held firmly. Tin, Lead, and Copper maintain former prices firmly. I

Durin" the whole or that period, I suffered tho most dreadful at- tacks of Asthma, frequently of several weeks duration, attended with a violent cough, and continual spitting of phlegm, intermixed with blood. This so shook my constilution that I was uniitted fpr any of tbe active duties of life. J was atknded by some of the most eminent medical men of this town, but they failed to Úve me the slightest relief. As a la^t remedy, I tried your j'ills, and in about three months they efr¿cted it perfect cure ot the disease, tOtalIy era dicated the cough, uiid restoied tone and vigour to the chest and digestive organs.

As a proof of their efficacy in Liver and Hiliou Complaints, I may men- ticn the fallowing case :-A lady of this town, with whom I am per- sonally acquainted, for years was a severe sufferer frum disease of the liver aud digestive organs her nsedical attondant assured her that he cauld do nothing to relieve her sufferings, aud it was not likely she could sllrvive many mor ths. This announcement na- turally caused great alarm among her friends and relations, and they induced her to make a trial of your Pills, which so improved her general health that she was induced to continue them until she received a perfect cure. This is twelve months ago, and she has not experienced any symptoms of relapse, and often declares that your P,])s have been the means of saving her life.

DEA It SIR,—Having for several years past been a great sufferer from obstinate and convulsive cough, attended with, anrlaggravated by, an acculllula' ion of mucus-so severe as sometimes to almost strangle me, and being accidentally directed to the announcement of your preparation, entitled, Pectoral Oxymel of Horehound," I resolved to make a trial of it. I took one Thirteen Pence Halfpenny Bottle, and before I had finished it, the effect to me was as astonishing as it was salutary- such as Iliad never before witnessed. It aimost instantaneously allayed my cough, softened the phlegm, and me of what was both a vast annoyance and a grievous affliction. Cunsidering that the remedy, wele its merits geneially known, would prove a public benefit, I do feel much pleased \*ith having an opportunity to thus render my hu.i ble, but truthful attestation in recommendation of its use in cases, which by no means are fe w, analogous to my own. I remain, Sir, yours respectfully, To Mr. Gco. Ackrill, Druggist. Micah Thomas. From the Rev. D. Lewis. Llanvapley, April 5th, 1853. DEAR Srn,-Some time ago I was afflicted with a severe cold and cough, 1'01 the removal of which 1 tried 6eve, al reineuies to no purpose. Having heard oC your celebrated Pecttral Oxymel of Horehound," I resolved to give it a fair trial. I had one Thirteen Pence Halfpenny bottle ,of it. I began. to take it, and to my utter astonishment, I found immediate rehef. It ripened the cold and loosened the cough, and produced frequent expectoration-in fact, my cold and cough had left me entIrely 111 less than two days. I feel much pleasure in bearing my humble testimony to the wonder- ful efficacy of your most valuable preparation, and am desirous of mikiiv its merits as extensively known as possible. Wishing y. u abundant success in your praiseworthy endeavours to relieve suffer- ing humanity, I remall1, yoursw To Mr. G. Ackrill, Chemist and DE.VR 81&1 return you many thanks for recommending me to try a bottle of your Pectoral Oxymel of Horehound, and. a box of your Antibilious Pills, when 1 was 111 your shop at the beginning of tire corn harvest, for a very distressing cough and pam 111 the Lhest, which 1 then had. My cough and breath were that bad, I could not work nor lie down, but was obliged to sit up in bed all night, III fact was so ill, that it was a general remark amongst my neighbours, how very i1l Mr. Rumsey is looking-he wlil not be with us long." 1 believe 1 should have been in my grave before this, if I had not taken your valuable Pectoral Oxymel of Horehound and Pills; the first dose or two gave me ease, and in less than forty-e ight hours it had so relieved my cough and breath, that J was able to lie down in bed and sleep soundly, \I J¡ich I had not been able to do for a long time and by the time I had taken the bottle of Horehound and the box of Pills, it had quite cured my cough and removed all my pains, in fact, reswred me to perfect health. I shall always recommend it to my friends and neighbours, and all who are afflicted with coughs and colds, as the be,;t medicine ever offered to the public." ° 1 remain, dear Sir, yours ¡;ratefulJy, E.
