 published a systematic "Catalogue of Chemical Apparatus" This 

 extends to 100 pa^es large octavo, and is illustrated with 460 Wood

Cuts, mostly from original designs. The price of it is eighteen pence. 

 The Catalogue is written by J. J. Griffin, and contains descriptions 

 of nearly 2000 Instruments. It embraces also an account of pure 

 Chemical Reagents, Systematic Collections of Rocks, Fossils, Min- 

 erals. Models of Crystals, Models of Chemical Manufactories, and 

 other articles of interest to the Chemist and Geologist. The arti- 

 cles are so arranged that it is easy for the chemist to select such as 

 he may require for any given course of experiments. The sizes, 

 qualities, and prices of all the articles contained in the Catalogue 

 are precisely noted. Every thing is kept in stock, ready for imme- 

 diate delivery, and orders can be executed at a few hours' notice. 

 The instruments are warranted to be properly adjusted, and their 

 prices will be found to be unusually moderate. 



We respectfully point out to the chemists of America* that our 

 establishment presents to them advantages not to be found in any 

 other establishment in Europe. We have collected the glass ves- 

 sels of the Paris chemists, the hard glass of Bohemia, the porcelain 

 of Berlin and Dresden, and the fine instruments of Berlin and Lon- 

 don. By making large purchases, we have procured the goods at 

 the lowest prices, and we have the whole ready for immediate ser- 

 vice. Freight from Glasgow to the United States is very cheap, 

 and the conveyance direct. We can therefore place quickly and 

 cheaply in the hands of the American chemist a collection of Chem- 

 ical Apparatus, Pure Reagents, Europan Minerals, &c. as complete 

 as he can desire.

ELIXIR OF OPIUM. 



This is a new chemical preparation, containing all the valuable 

 medicinal qualities of Opium, in a natural state of combination, to 

 the exclusion of its noxious principles. 



Full proportions of the greatest number of the noxious principles 

 of Opium are contained in Laudanum, Paregoric, Black-drop, De- 

 narcotized Laudanum, Extract of Opium, and such other opiate 

 preparations of this class hitherto made, and to which are justly at-
