Medical Board, Charlotte House, Surrey, Nov. 6,.1 Since the fashion of Curling the Hair has be- I come so general both to Ladies and Gentlemen, it may not be amiss to point out its danger destroying that ornament—a fine head of hair. The use of the Irons makes the hair harsh and dry, and it loses all its native lustre and elasti city. To \counteract this, ATioNsoN's curling Fluid has long stood pre-eminent, and its general adoption by the Nobility raises it above any im putation 4f quackery. By using it after curling the hair, it makes it soft and, 'glossy, and keeps the curl perfect in exercise in the dance or 'pro menade, or in damp weather. It also preserves it from changing colour or falling off to extreme old age; and in order to protect the Public against the numerous deleterious imitations, the Proprietor intends immediately to.take a Vatent out for the invention. . • • MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.—On•Priday evening, the Ist itasLat the l'reventiVe Boat beloogitig• -to . -.Maragis. sey, was returning.from Fowey to that place, it being: very dark and foggy; Ole persons' on board kept too near the mod in conSegnence the boat was upset by the surf , off the, rocks, near Gribbots Point, when, tinforronat ely,all on I:naad . but there men perished ; the latter escaped With crest catty.

DoilNFoito and DEMON of this University, and one Mr. SIL- LiouE, a French mineralogist :---- " We departed on the Itith August, at three in tit 9 After noon; at two o'clock oa,the following day we arrived at Chamonny. We here took twelve guides, and the next day, iat five oVock in the morning, we otluvenced our journey. The weather ,Avas• beautiful, and the thermometer 'stood at t 0 deg. (about 64 Fareuheit.) We advanced at first in the direction of. the &tier Des Bossens; a tittle before which the road verges to,flic left, and the ascent commences thrhugli a forest. At seven o'clock, we bad passed the forest and had reathed a hut Dc -by Favret,• one of the guides evlto acciennpao!ed Saussure, in his ascent, .and whose sou was with us. . " Front :this placeastended-in a 7ig-zag-direction,, the Aigoflie du Midi ; at balf-paSt right we rested at Pierre pointue; the mbuntain here projects between the glacier Des nessout, and that. of the I'eterins. Hence we caught the first glimpse of the summit of Motit Blanc ; the priory of Chamonny Was still in sight. Front this p . l4,ce . the road turos a little to the right ; at nine we crossed the torrent, called Eau noire, hitt which, instead of water, was at this t imc filled with commons masses of granite, torn ftfou Or! ;. t>tt t . left is the eXiguille de la tour ; quarter of an lnitir after wards we pass,al th&Nant blame; apd at tfitte we stowed to breakfast roan,' a large stone, ,between the glacier De,.llos; sons and Mont Basselache. the guides tall this the Pierre de, l'vcbelle, because they generally leave at thisJttare -the ladder, used in crossing the glacier.. At ten minutes past eleven we recommericed our journev, and in five minutes reached the glacier Des Prossons, ,tl;iel, it ,i.as urcep,ary to traverse obliquely in the directiOn of the rand Mohr. , At a hundred paces from the slyl.ders of the glacier commence wonders; which no p.-tt can describe. At every moment we stopped I o.show - each other sonic rinntiLable eptitiguration of the tee; sometimes an immeasurable precipice:, at Others a tower of ice, hundreds of.feet in height. Soon our ladder tvas called into action, to cross the chasms, or unfathomable rots in the glacier; many of these are divided long ways by a thin wall of ice, at most a foot in thiciatess, the top of which is ten or twelve feet lower than' tin; borders of the chasur fr :Wlien arrived to the,edge of one of these, the ladder ..iefet down, and its foot is placed upon the intermediatu•vial of ice. One of the guides descends; the first traveller follows him, and upon the narrow wall stands imunivable near the ladder, en deavouring To avoid eastin-rtils eyes on the two abysses which yawn to keeeive hintlfrould he for one moment lose his equi librium. IN.Terricwhile the guide titian:the bead of the ladder towards the opposite bottler of the chasm, and the traveller baring ascender), it is again placed -on the. first side for the next persiin, and so Oil. When the ladder is somewhat longer than the breadth of the chasm, it is plarea . accrues like a bridge, and one crawls o,:er• it with ' hands and feet. Sortie of the chasms are covered with a thin bridge of snow:. those who walk, the last find : sometimes those bridges pierced by the feet of the first; in that case they step a little on the side • " In spite of all dieliculties and• dangers, we crossed the I glacier* without the.slightest accident ; ;it deceit we were at , the junction of the glacier Des Bossons ttilh that ofTacconav, between which is the mountain de la Cote; after r:scentling' a snowy aoclivity, we, at three oteloch pre:6W,', put our feet on' the basis of the rn and Mulct ; are, far, Irma solid, we ascended therefore hut slowly, it wasira - lriitt, r tour ere we reached the highest point of the Grand Mulct.
