FRAUD.—-A new species of artifice hasjust come to our knowledge, against which we feel it our duty to put the public on “up guard. The high reputation which “ ROWLAND'S MA- CASSAR OIL" has acquired throughout the world has excited the cupidity ofsorue UNPRINCIPI.ED iinitators,who have endeavour- ed to introduce into the East and West Indies, .fi'incrica. &c.&c. their highly noxious imitations for the real article—the 'wrsppei-s and labels of which so closely resemble those of Messrs. Row- land's, as to require it Somewhat careful observation to detect the imposition. The only mode for the purchaser to avoid the im-

.m‘,,;.on, and escape the beneful cfi'ects of theirvile connierfsits, “ m inspect, With great care, the wrappers and labels, and follow the directions attached to the word “CAUTION” in Messrs. flowland’s Advertisement, which frequently ap ears in our a er ...s« fldvertisemcnt. P p p
