QIGHT RESTORED.-NERVOUS HEAD ACHE CURED.—This discovery has proved itself of the greatest importance to the public. The numerous testimonials the inventor has received during the last twenty years, from families and editors of the first respectability, proving the truth of this infallible restorative, all of whom may be applied to, who have been relieved from cataract, gutta serene, opthalmia, and inflammations, all dis eases of the eyes and head having been completely eradicated, glasses left off after twenty years' use, and the person rendered imperviou to contagion by the frequent use of this delightful compound of the most wholesome, choice, aromatic, and odoriferous herbs. It is re commended by occulists and medical practitioners for its many vir tues. The high patronage and character it has attained, is a testi monial beyond suspicion. To prevent imposition, ask for GRIM STONE'S EYE SNUFF, manufactured by the inventor, No. 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, and No. 24, King-street, Long-acre, London. COPY OF A LETTER sent to Mr. Grimstone, 39, Bread street, Bloomsbury :—" Dear Sir,—You may make use of my name, for a true fact, in taking your Eye Snuff. I have received such great benefit, that I can see to write without glasses, which I could not do before I took your Eye Snuff, my eyes being so very weak; they are now perfectly strong ! Many of my poor aged men and women would purchase it in preference to other snuff, but they cannot afford sixpence per ounce, or buy it in the cannister. I re main, Sir, your s respectfully, H. Pi.ucxwar,L, Governor of the Poor.—Poor-house, Tottenham, Middlesex, January '24, 1834. Sight restored." OBSERVATIONS of the Editor of the " Old England,' Sept. 22, 1833 :—" ET IC SN U F. —This is really an extraordinary preparation. Of what it is compounded we know not ; but this we knew, that it is wonderfully efficacious, relieving headache and purging the eyes of injurious humours, especially if they are of a serofulous nature. It is also an extremely complaisant companion when toiling over musty books or writings, and tends most power fully to enable the eye to perform, without fail, an unusual quantity of labour." OBSERVATIONS of the Editor of the United Service Gazette, April 19, 1834.—" The advance of civilization, which gives birth to so many new forms of infirmity and disease, brings in its train new discoveries of remedial agents and new applications of science to their virtues. In no case has this remark been more signally verified than in the modern prevalence of near• sightedness, and the new appliances for its relief.

REGISTRATION OF THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF SURREY. The Revising Barristers, Mr. V. KNOX and Mr. C. B. LENNARD, yesterday held an adjourned Court at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, for the purpose of completing the 're vision f the lists of electors in respect of property situate in the parish of Camberwell and others in the immediate vicinity. • Not a single point possessing the least interest occurred, and indeed the business was confined to the in sertion of Christian names where initials had only been supplied. To afford the parochial authorities an opportu nity of furnishing this information, and in order to enable claimants who had been objected to, to appear and sub-' stantiate their respective qualifications, the ad j ourned court was held. Strange to say, not a single claiisnt appeatQ and after waiting upwards of an hour, Mr. Krtox said that due notice had been given two aaysi ago to these parties to appear this day bdore the Court, and as they had failed to avail themselvOs of the proper opportunity of urging their supposed rights, he should now allow the objections, and expunge the names of such parties from the lists.—Adjourned. The attendance of Lords was nearly the same as on former days. The Earl of Westmorland came to town from Northamptonshire for the purpose of attending the Council, but on his Lordship's arrival in Down ing-street he found that his Noble and Right Hon. Colleagues had some minutes previously adjourned. After their Lordships had remained some consider able time in deliberation, Mr. Cooper, of the firm of Cooper and Hall, who was in attendance, was called in. That gentleman, we are assured, positively ad hered to his former statement of having heard of the fire when 120 miles in the country. We are enabled to give the following summary of Mr. Cooper's evi dence, which, with the trifling and unimportant ex ception of his being at the time alluded to at Dudley, instead of Birmingham, as was stated, will be found to have been perfectly correct. In answer to questions from the Lord Chancellor and other of their Lordships, Mr. Cooper stated that he was at Dudley on Thurs day the lath instant, and on that day, he dined and spent the evening at the Bush Inn in that town`; there were four -,other commercial gentlemen present.' Be tween 9,,and o.!clock—he was positive it was' before 10 o'clock—they were informed that both Houses of Parliament were burnt down. This extraordinary in telligence, which they understood was the current talk of the town, naturally formed the topic of conversa tion for the small party with whom he was associating for the remainder of the evening. He was quite con fident of the day ; indeed it was morally impossible for him by any chance to make a mistake. At the time he felt fully convinced that it could be nothing but an idle rumour, and during the entire evening, he treated it as such. On the following morning he took the Shrewsbury coach at Wednesbury, or Bilston, for the purpose of returning to town, and until he arrived at Birmingham, he remained perfectly sceptical as to the fact. There, however, it was confirmed by direct in telligence from the metropolis, it having been appended in a note to the way bill of the different mail-coaches, in the following words :—" London, Thursday even ing, 8 o'clock. Both Houses of Parliament are now burning." He did not recollect the name of the gen tlemen who spent the evening with him at Dudley, but they were the representatives of respectable commer cial houses, and most of course were well known to the landlord of the Bush Tavern, and there could be no doubt, if their Lordships should think their evidence material, that they could easily be found. He, how ever, would swear positively to the fact. Stuckbury, the Guard of the Regulator coach, was next called in. He stated that he had just seen and' conversed with Mr. Cooper, and he perfectly recol lected that gentleman getting on the coach at Bilston on Friday morning. He came with them all the way to London. He was quite confident he was not mis taken as to the identity of Mr. Cooper, or as to the time and place he got upon the coach. He repeated, that he had no recollection of hearing any conversation respecting the fire, or of that fact itself until the coach arrived nearly to Oxford. These were the only witnesses examined. Sir R. Sinirke was in attendance, but he was not called in. The propriety of instituting an investigation at Dud ley was, we are informed, then discussed by their Lordships, and the Council remained in deliberation until nearly two o'clock, when the Lord Chancellor's attendance being required at the prorogation of Parlia ment, their Lordships adjourned. Mr. and Mrs. Mullenkamp and some other individuals who had apartments in, or were connected with the two Houses of Parliament have not been called before their Lordships. They had previously been examined at great length at the Home-office, where they stated all they knew. It was, therefore, deemed unnecessary for the present at all events to ask them any further questions. We understand that at the King's Council which . was held at St. James's Palace on Wednesday, it was finally determined that the ensuing session of Parlia ment, should be held at the new palace at Pimlico. In consoquence of this arrangement, at 5 o'clock on that day the progress of the work , of completing the embel lishments of that edifice was suspended, and all the workmen employed discharged. Sir J. C. Hobhouse, the Chief Commissioner of the Woods and Forests, Sir R. Smith, and Mr. Blore, the architect, were yesterday for several hours engaged in inspecting that building, suggesting the necessary al terations. This arrangement, it is thought, will not tend to public convenience, not only on account of the out-of the-way situation of Buckingham Palace, but it is supposed that the alterations which will be found in dispensable cannot be effected without an enormous expenditure, whilst the accommodation afforded must of necessity be of a very limited nature. It may probably be unnecessary to allude to the re port that was so currently circulated in the early part of yesterday, as to the demolition of Windsor Castle by fire. There is no truth in the statement. A King's messenger arrived in town at 2 o'clock from the Cas tle, with despatches from his Majesty to the Lord Chancellor, and he had not even heard the report until he reached London. The following statement has been sent by a corre spondent, who gives us his name, and states that he was in the House of Commons during the whole of the conflagration : _ _ " A little after seven o'clock on Thursday evening, I reached Westminster-hall, when I found that part of the House o f C ommons con ti guous t o it one entire furnace of flames. I assisted some firemen in breaking down and taking away the large wooden doors in the communication between the two places, in order that the flames might be more completely played upon by the water. Engines were also steadily directed against the south-eastern and south-western corners of the roof of the hall adjoining the House of Commons, and the preservation of the former was, I think, in a great mea sure attributable to the constant manner in which these engines were kept at work. Some noblemen were on the spot superintending—l think Lords Hill and Althorp. Seeing that the interior of the House of Commons was perfectly inaccessible from this quarter, and that I could not render any further essen tial service, I went round the western (Abbey) side of the House of Commons to the southern end, opposite the House of Lords. They were there busily engaged in carrying out the books from this part of the House of Commons through the Members' waiting room. I assisted in carrying down many of these books, and placing them in coaches hired for that purpose ; they were deposited in St. Margaret's Church, and at this time our situation was perilous, ,as we had to get the books, which were very large and numerous, from the rooms at the top of the house, which were every mo ment threatened with tke flames ; the staircase was also by this time extremely dangerous, and we were drenched in torrents of hot water falling from the pipes of the engines. A detachment of soldiers in this part of the house rendered essential service. All the books being removed from this quarter, the flames - having got possession of it, and observing that they were extending rapidly towards Mr. Warburton's rooms, I hastened to them. On my arrival at I be lieve No. 15, (over the medical committee-room), I found that the door had been already opened, and that three or four persons were in the room. The room was literally filled with documents. They told me they were Mr. Warburton's, but certainly there must have been much more there than related to medical matters. I instantly proposed 'that they should,be re moVed, and inculcated 'that We had - probably only ' few minutes to do it in, before all would be destroyed. They said that although the papers would be burnt if left, still they had no authority to move them. I hastily argued the point with a gentleman who came into the room, whose name I think was Cooper, and who seemed to possess some influence. I told him my name and address, and that I would be responsible for any papers which I removed-from that room. I think lie said he lived either in-Pallmall or Piccadilly ; per haps this was Mr. Ccidiper of the Record-office, but there was little time for recollecting names or addresses. He however agreed that he would go and get the coaches for their removal, whilst we above threw them out of the windows. I stripped down the large green window-curtains, and with the assistance of a few others tied up the papers- in them, and threw them out of the windows. These curtains were only suf ficient to hold a small portion of them, therefore the rest were thrown by handfulls into the street, picked up, and conveyed to St. Margaret's Church opposite. After the principal portion of Mr. Waburton's pers had been thus secured, I rode as hard as I could to his residence in Cadogan-place ; he being out of town, I left a note informing him where I had tempo rarily deposited. his papers (it was then, I think, about 10 o'clock at night). I subsequently_ rode back again to the House of Commons,' and entered Mr. Warbur- ton's Committee-room (No t -13) by. Means of a fire ladder. A detachment . , o the Plueswqre, i there (mider the command of Captain Hill, I believe) directing the pipes of the fireertirieCagainSi the fl'ainei; Which had then taken full possession of the whole of the building over the passage leading immediately to the rooms. A breach was made in the ceiling of the passage, the burning rafters were copiously falling upon it, and it seemed every moment as though it were about to fall. Knowing that the Railway-road Committee sat next to Mr.Warburton's, I proposed to two of the Blues (one of- whom was named Steen or Steir, or a like name) to go through the passage under the burning ruins, and burst open the door of the last named room, in the hope of being able to save something ; unfortunately, before we had completely wrenched it open the hatchet broke, but we could see sufficient to observe that every thing, ceiling and all, was reduced to ashes. A strong party wall separated this room from Mr. Warburton's, which was evidently a barrier against further extension of the flames in this direction. On applying our hands to it we found it quite hot. Another means of check ing the progress of the flames in the upper rooms of this part of the building was the unroofing of it. It was now, as near as I can guess, about twelve o'clock, or one in the morning. I found a few more loose papers of Mr. Warburton's on the Committee-room floor, and descended the ladder to take them across the way to the church, when a policeman in the crowd ar rested me, because I had in my possession the said papers, and took me to the station-house. I told the superintendent my name, and argued that my black face and wet and muddy clothes were almost sufficient to prove how hard I had worked in rescuing property. Upon my giving my address, a policeman asserted that I was not the gentleman I stated, for he knew him per sonally. I again protested that I was, upon which the superintendent had the gentlemanly good sense togrant my acquittal: I returned to the flames, and assisted at the pipes in Mr. Warburton's committee-room with the Blues until about four in the morning, when the fire was evidently subdued ; they came down the ladder, I followed, burnt, bruised, and drenched with wet, as black as Diabolus, and persecuted withal. I got home about half-past four in the morning, slept soundly, but knowing that I had rendered a Reforming Govern ment and the cause of Reform some service, con sequently the cause of humanity. The next morning I went with Dr. Somerville, to show him where the papers were deposited in the church, and to assist him in collecting the medical from the other pa pers. They were subsequently taken under his su perintendance during that day and the following in vans and coaches to his own residence, where he has subjected them, with the greatest degree of care, to the very necessary process of drying, and in his custody I suppose they will remain until further orders, or the arrival of Mr. Warburton. Many medical returns, to gether with other papers, were found by Dr. Somer ville the next morning, actually damming up the gut ters, which were scattered in the hurry and confusion o f the previous night. I believe most of Mr. War burton's unprinted documents are saved, although some of them are much mutilated. The evidence al ready printed was in a room by itself, and I believe consumed. The frequent occurrence of the " I" in the above de tail to some may appear egotistical ; but professing only to give a narrative of what came under my own personal observation, I offer but that excuse. If many titled persons exhibited themselves outside the house, there were many commoners who worked hard within! THE MARKETS.

A man was admitted, on Monday, October 20, into Charing-cross Hospital, under the care of the physicians of that hospital, labouring under symptoms of hydrophobic disease. It appeared, upon examina tion, that the patient, who appeared to be of the age of thirty-five, was accustomed to sell apples and gin ger-beer in the New English Opera House. About two months ago, he was assisting some others in en deavouring to drive a cat out of the house, when the animal flew at him, and bit his hand. The injury was but slight, and, after a little inflammation, it completely healed. On Sunday, as he was seated at table with his wife, he experienced a singular sensation in his throat, accompanied with an inability to swallow. These symptoms increasing in violence, he became alarmed, and applied for admittance into Charing cross Hospital. .The physicians, when they became acquainted with the particulars, pronounced the case to be one of decided hydrophobia, and he was accordingly admitted, and placed in a ward by himself. His symp toms were, a spasmodic condition of the pharynx, trachea, and diaphragm. He had also a dread of liquids. When he attempted to drink, and the liquid approached his lips, he experienced a sudden, convulsive sob, or catch in the breath, with a momentary sensation of choking. The physician asked him to place his hand in some water, which he attempted to do, and a violent spas modic attack immediately followed. The man had no idea of the disease under which he was labouring, and it was thought advisable not to make him acquainted with the fact, fearing that it might aggravate his symp toms, and accelerate his death. The first thing that was administered was strychnia, the extract of nux vomica. This is a very powerful medicine, which has a peculiar action on the nervous system. Dr. Chris tian observes, in his treatise on poisons, that, " except the prussic acid, no poison is endowed with such de structive energy as strychnia. I have killed a dog in two minutes, with a sixth part of a grain, injected in the form of alcohalic solution, into the chest. I have seen a wild boar killed in the same manner, with a third of a grain, in ten minutes ; and there is little doubt that half a grain thereof into a wound might kill a man in less than a quarter of an hour. It acts, in whatever way it is introduced into the system, but most energetically when injected into a vein." An eighth part of a grain of strych nia was given. After he had taken two doses, it had a marked effect on his nervoils system ; but the spasms were not allayed. Mr. Pettigrew then suggested to bacco injections, as he had found this produce some relief in a similar case of hydrophobia, which was un der his care some years ago. This was accordingly tried, but without producing any beneficial result. So astonishingly did these injections reduce the vital powers, that when I saw the patient on Wednesday, at twelve o'clock, I could not perceive any pulsation pit the wrist. The poor man appeared at times tincon , scions of those around him. There was to have been a meeting of the medical officers of the establishment The herring fishery is prosecuted at three great sta tions—the East Coast of Scotland,. the West, and the Isle of Man. The first stretches from -Thurso to Pe terhead, and includes the Orkneyand Shetland Islands ; the second extends from Cape. Wrath to the Mull of Kintyre, and comprises we know not how many rami fications of lochs, friths, estuaries, and bays ; while Man, as Virgil said of Britain, is a kingdom within itself, divided from all the world beside. On the-east coast, which is by far the greatest . general Station„ope rations commenced on or about the 2Qth . July.. Salt and barrels were provided in abundance.; of boats and nettage there was no lack ; contractors were ready .to make advances, and the spirits of the men biloyant and high ; and yet daYafter day, an d week on week, elapsed, without bringing tidings of tie '646clea'sheats; Te dium ensiled, and its usual concomitants ;* speculators %fought shy; the' Banks' becameinteasy, - and sou lit ad vice .from head-quarters ; sand such, in -Wick especially, Was the general- distress, that the neighbouring- farmers were forced to watch their potatoes, to prevent them• from being 'carried off and eaten in i:a - balf-ripe - sfate. Oatmeal. was retailed..in pounds at a.-time, and.-before t all was over many hardy fishermen, who had. come far ~and fared most : miserably, were compelled:to pawn their nets as security foi the - price of 'their . lodgnigs. : At this `point the. fishing,in place of 200, barely netted 30 reams . per . boat.. Sarelet, Falligo,.. Clyth,%. Lybster, Leatheron-wbeel, -and , pun,b.eatlr,- did- still worse- 7 -0i averages being little more than from 7 to 10 crans. In Ross-shire the failure was equally conspicuous ; and even at Portmahomack the aggregate fishing hardly exceeded 10 or 12 crans for each distinct crew. At Ballintore the result was equally disheartening, and the same remark applies to Cromarty, Brough-head, - Find horn, and Buckie. The Banff, Fraserburgh, and Pe terhead boatmen were more fortunate ; .but, although they did well as compared with others, the take was far under an average fishing. In Orkney the crews, by dint of perseverance, obtained about 50 Crafts each —a circumstance we are glad of, for the sake of per sons who may be said to draw their 'chief means of subsistence from troubled waters, where, (luring a great part of the year, Tennant's fine expression is strikingly realised, " breaks the long wave that at the pole began." In Shetland, where the herring fishery is Of recent Ori gin, the take was greater than was ever known before, and the people generally are so well pleased with their good luck, that they intend to redouble their exertions against.. another season. Upon the whole, however, on the east coast, the herrings' cared will not exceed a fourth of the usual quantity—a failure to be deplored under any circumstances, and the more so when we consider how many hearths the binn and the barrel help to gladden. The poor man's greatest bread crop has rarely been better in quality, or more abundant, and it is sad to think that he will be denied the humble luxury of the cheapest kind of fish to kitchen his potatoes: But the fishermen themselves will be the greatest sufferers. While the farmer tills and reaps the land, it is their lot to plough and reap the deep ; some of them who have no other resource, trust to the nets for the payment of pendicle and cottage rents, and when a bad harvest occurs, the consequences are terrible to many a family. A boat manned by four men, with suitable cordage and a spare net, costs as near as may be 2101.; and when a capital of this kind yields no return, and must lye as dead stock for the next ten months, the owners' pros pects are pitiable in the extreme. Even the slav es i n the Westlndies will desiderate their wonted rations of herrings, and must trust to the banks of Newfound land for food rather than the rocky coasts' that environ our isle. From the same cause the coasting trade, in various parts of Scotland, has received a blow from which it may not speedily recover. Carrying salt and staves, and exchanging these articles for a cargo of fins, forms a great trade in Spring and Autumn ; but from the quantities of both accumulated at the stations, the fresh supplies needed will be trifling next v , ;;ar, however promising may be the appearance of consequence of this hundreds of vess‘,!,l.s will be par tially thrown out of emplo channels of trade,Ynnit, or forced into new which, in too many cases, it is easy to seek bu t diffi e li) :‘ to find. For long the traffic be tween the and the North was a certain and good one f:, - ;i• vessels of a certain tonnage or class ; and here we have a fresh proof that the trading interests of such a country as ours are so dove-tailed and connected, that the slightest disruption in a .particular . quarter affects more or less the prosperity and stability of the whole fabric. On the West Coast, indented as it is with lochs, es tuaries, and bays, the fishing proved any thing but a remunerating concern. In the early part of the season a modicum of fish was caught at Scalpa and Portree ; but latterly all engaged in the traffic were placed in the, sad predicament of those who let down buckets into empty wells, and spend their days in drawing no water: Many vessels that were out three months have re turned with empty casks, or perhaps with a very few of them filled. In the Frith of Clyde matters were: rather better. In July and August the shoals we re considerable ; but the quantities then caught -,v ent either run fresh or salted, and sold so quickly th.at they are now out of the market. Indeed, the general scarcity of west Highland fish is best indexed by the price they bear—and which, in a few weeks, rose from 20s. to 50s. per barrel. From Ayr to the Nith or Annan such persons as engage iZ the herring trade send out vessels and buy from the boatmen ; and what is rather odd, most of them have returned with bumper cargoes, and brin g good accounts of such of th e i r neighbours as still lingered at the different stations. In the Isle of Man the herrings were so late and tardy in showing themselves, that some of the curers left the place in despair. But they came at last, and in greater shoals than have been witnessed since the year 1823. In Man, the winged tribes are the fisher man's pioneers, and the moment they gave the signal ()Teat was the bustle and the booty caught. What the value may be we are unable to state ; but in the year alluded to, about 21,000 barrels were cured at Peel, and round the coast, independently of 12,000 ditto, that were consumed on the spot, or run fresh to Liver pool, without the slightest deterioration of quality.
