Neuralgia, or pain in the nerves, is a complaint which causes in. tense agony, in all its varieties, and has hitherto very much baffled med*.cal science and skill. In this work, Dr. Downing fully and clearly states and discusses the causes of this complaint, and offers suggestions (confirmed by twiny cases of successful treatment) for its care by means of an instrument called The Ancuralgicon, which he has invented. This instrument brings warm and sedative vapour directly upon the affected parts of the body, and the result has been that no ill effect has ever followed its use, while it almost invariably acts a charm in cases of Tic Douloureux, Sciatica, Cold, Rheuma tism, and other Affections of the Nerves. 31ILTON'S HAIR LUBRICANT. CURLY HAIR.—It is lot generally known that the human hair contains a minute portion of a peculiar salt which has an affinity for the fluids of the atmosphere; the absorption of mois ture immediately canacs the hair, however well curled, speedily to be,:ome straight. When, however, the hair contains a good supply of its natural unguent, the power of the saline particles to abseib moisture is neutralized, rind the hair will maintain its curliness ; the natural supply; Is, however, rarely sufficient, and MILTON'S HAIR LUBRICANT is the only rational preparation for supplying nature's d. ficiency. The hair dressed it oil preserve its natural ?urli ness for any length of time, either in the ball-room or during exercise in damp weather ; it also renders the hair, aided by brushing, beau tifully clean and silky. MILTON'S HAIR LUBRICANT is sold in elegant Toilet P 2s. each. Any Bookseller in the country can procure it in his weekly parcel. The Wholesale Agents in London are Messrs. Barclay and Co., Farringdon-street. B RITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH NEW ROAD. LONDON. MEDICAL CUEATERY—RAILWAY CHEATERT. The public are just beginning to find out how they have been robbed by a certain railway director, but what is such cheatery when compared with Medical Cheatery ? Why, as a drop in the ocean. The public have been grossly cheated for the last 200 years on the question of their healths, which is far more important than Railway Shares—if it were only the Guineas paid to the doctor that they had lest, such would be as nothing, bat it is their healths and lives which have been sacrificed at the shrine of Mammon. JAMES MORISON, the Hygeist, was the first to warn the rublic of this great wrong, but he was then cried down by an all-powerfill press, representing what doctors call their rested rights. Every day, however, is now making palpable that he was right. The Hygeian System of Morison is every dAy pirated by doctors, who now pre tend to have found out that diseases proceed from impurity of the blood, and they do it in the following specious and dishonourable manner : for instance—Dr. A— declares that insanity is a disease of the blood—Dr. B— that "Bright's disease" is not a renal disease, but a disease of the blood ; and so they will go on until the whole catalogue of diseases is ascribed to the blood. Such conduct may become the " Holloway's !" the " Old Parr's !" et hoc genus o:nue, but how doctors, respectable ones we mean, can have the face to rob the Hygeist in the manner they do, without acknowledgment, surpasses our comprehenSion. The public, however, will duly appreciate their thefts. Let there be tha same inTestigaCon in the question of medicine as in the question of railways, and it will then be made manifest how grossly the public has been imposed apon. There is not a llygeist but shrinks with hor:or at the contents of chemists' shops, con taining the mast deadly poisons, all introduced in order to—what ? Why, that doctors may more easily blind the public, and that they may pocket the " gnhicas" for what they term " medical advice." The only true "medical advice" is, purify your blorxl with proper vegetable purgatives, all other advice is an imposition. Through blind confidence, shareholders were cheated by the railway director, and through blind confidence the public 11 rve been cheated by the doctors. John Murray, Albemarle-street.

ACCIDENTAL HOMICIDE.—On Wednesday last a sad event occurred at S rear Wakefiel I, which has cast a gloom over the village and will muse mach future distress in two revectuule tau.alieb. From p.rticulees gleaned on the spot, we find that a friendship has existed for come time between Charles Fernandes, a youth about sixteen years of age, who is lame (having lost a leg by accident) and the men -servants of Captain Wood. Both families reside in Sandd, and provably young Fernandes had made companions of the neighbouring servants, es his bodily infirmity prevented him from participating in the sports of youths of his own class. On Wednesday morning .he obtained possession of a double-barrelled gun of his brother's, and went out shooting small birds. Ho returned to dinner, and again went out about two o'clock. He called at Captain Wood's stable, where he found the groom, Michael Lynch, and a young man named Schorab, who cccasionally works there. Imme diately on entering the stable one barrel of the piece went off, as is supposed from the hammer catching upon some part of his clothes while in the act of shutting the door after him. 'The charge of small shot entered the felt breast of the groom Lynch, and passing near t. r through the heart, killed him almost iestantanemsly. The inonut was held by Mr. G. D. Barker, the ddputy coroner, at the Castle use, Sandal, on Thursday evening, and the jury without hesitation returned a verdict of " Accidentally Killed." RAILWAY COLLISION.—The up-train which left York for London at noon yesterday met with an acci dent on the Midland line, near Leicester, about twenty minutes after five P.M. It is not owing to any care or precaution on the part t the officials of the company that we have not to meld a number of very serious casualties. Close to the station at Leicester, at the very moment when the York train was expected, and on th • very rails which it had to traverse, a number of goods trucks were allowed to remain by the railway servants. The night was fogey, and most fortunately the driver of the train slackened his speed just before he ran into the trucks, but notwithstanding the diminished impetus the passengers were knocked from their seats, and some of them very much shaken and frightened. The train proceeded after a delay of twenty minutes. Had the trucks been 100 yards higher up the line the comae qu ?et es would have been inevitably disastrous. As it is. tt-e c aril any ought to ascertain by whose culpable indiffl.et ce, or worse, so many persons were placed iA danger of their lives.
