We the undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas Ro bins, one of our parishioners, commenced taking " Halse's Scor butic Drops," he was literally covered with large running wounds (some of them so large that a person might have laid his fist in them), that before he had finished the first bottle he noticed an improvement, and that by continuing them for some time, he got completely restored to health, after everything else had failed. He had tried various sorts of medicines before taking `• Halse's Scor butic Drops," and had prescriptions from the most celebrated phy. sitians in this country, without deriving the least benefit. " Halse's Scorbutic Drops" hare completely cured him, and he is now ena bled to attend to his labour as well as any man in our parish. From other cures also made in this part, we strongly recommend " Halse's Scorbutic Drops" to the notice of the public.

DEATH FROM THE KICK. 01' A HORSE.—An inquest was yesterday held by Mr. Higgs, Deputy Coroner for Westminster, at the Feathers, Dean-street, on the body of William Hart, aged 43. From the evidence it ap peared that the deceased, who was a confirmed drunkard, was occasionally employed as the driver of a hackney coach by Mr. Welch, heckneyman, Gloucester -terrace, Vauxhall-bridge-road, and it had been known that the horses, having more sense that their besotted driver, had frequently brought the coach home to the stables with the deceased sitting on the box insensibly drunk. On Friday morning last about eleven o'clock he went out with the vehicle, and returned home about two o'clock on the following morning, and some hours afterwards was discovered lying in a stall, when ho begged to be let alone, but made no complaint. He had half a pint of warm beer, and remained there till six o'clock in the evening, when being told that ho must get up, he said his mare had kicked him. He was consequently re moved to the Westminster Hospital, where it was found that several of his ribs were fractured, and he remained in a state of collapse till about ten o'clock on Sunday night, when ho expired; the immediate cause of death, no doubt, being depression, arising from his exposure to the cold so long after sustaining the injary. Verdict, " Ac cidental death." INCOME-TAX APPIIALS n TIII3 CITY OF LONDON. —The appeals under schedule D on profits arising from professions, trades, &c., up to the .sth of April, 1844, are rapidly being disposed of. The following appeals have already been heard from the undermentioned wards and parishes, forming the western district of the city of London, viz.:—The wards of Aldersgate Within and Aldersgate Without, Bread-street, Castle Baynard, Cordwainers', Cripplegate Within and Cripplegate Without, Farringdon Within, Queenhithe, and Broad street wards. The parishes of St. Andrew, Ilolborn, St. Bartholomew the Great and the Lesser, St. Sepulchre, St. Dunstan's West, the precinct of Bridewell, and the Liberty of Sergeant' Inn. Yesterday the Commissioners sat at the Property and Income-Tax-office, 36, Basing hall-street, for the purpose of hearing appeals from the parish of St. Bride, Fleet street; and this morning, at eleven o'clock, they heard those from the inhabitants of the parish of St. Martin, Ludgate, which closed the appeals of tho western division of the City. The appeals of this division have been under the management of the first assistant-clerk, Mr. Russell. To-morrow (Thurs day, the 18th inst.) the Board will continue their sittings at eleven o'clock, when they will commence with hear ing the appeals from the eastern division, beginning with the ward of Bishopsgate Without; and on Friday morn ing, the 19th inst., Bridge Ward, Saturdays and Mon days the Board does not sit. The number of appellants each day has averaged 15. The majority of the parties who have appealed have had to so through their own ne gligence in not making the proper returns by filling up the printed forms sent them by the assessors. CAUTION TO Nurses.—An inquisition was taken before Mr. Baker, on Saturday, at the Three Loggerheads, Virginia-row, Bethnal-green, on the body of a male infant, (newly born), who died shortly after some gin had been ad ministered to it by the nurse attending on the mother. Lydia Carlin, a married woman, of No. 2, Turk's-row, Bethnal green, said that the deceased was born on Thursday last, about two o'clock. Witness was delivered by a female ac coucheur. Shortly after, as it was moaning and appeared distressed, witness remarked to a female named Eliza . ueth Jolliff, who was attending her, whether she could not give the child something to sooth it. The nurse said that there was some gin in a bottle, which she would give it. She then mixed about a quarter of a teaspoonful of the gin with some moist sugar, which was administered to it. The deceased almost lost its breath, and bled at its mouth. A surgeon was immediately sent for, who ordered a warm bath. De ceased was put into it, but it died in a quarter of an hour after. Four months ago she was frightened by two dogs, and has not been well since. The Coroner observed that they ought to have called in a medical man, who would have re commended what was proper to be administered. Mr. Peter Burchell, No. 1, Kingsland-road, surgeon, stated that he found the deceased in a convulsive state, he ordered some carminative medicine and a warm bath. There was blood upon its bedgown. Gin given to a child so young might bring on convulsions and death in a short time. Such a stimulant ought not to be administered by nurses, as there is great danger in its application. Elizabeth Jolliff stated that she was ex tremely sorry for the death of the child, and that she would undertake not to give gin again. The Coroner here read the law, from Carrington and Payne, appli cable:—Persons, not of a medical education, who should administer medicine, and death ensue, were guilty of man slaughter ; and gave several decisions of Judge Bailey. He then directed the jury to return an open verdict, as a magis trate might take a different view of the evidence. He did not think the jury would be disposed to send the case to another tribunal. Verdict—" That the deceased was born alive, and died within five hours of its birth, but from what cause there was no satisfactory evidence." The Coroner told the nurse that she was indebted to the kind consideration of the jury for the verdict, and remarked that had the case been stronger, he would have had no difficulty in sending her for trial. STEEPLE CHASE AT CHEAM.—A steeple chase match for 501. a side took place on Thursday, at Cheam, be tween Mr. G. Brettell and Mr. Hopkins, two gentlemen well known in the sporting world, which excited a good deal of in terest. The terms of the match were, for Mr. Brettell to ride his horse, the Count, against a horse of Mr. Hopkins, known as the Daring Ranger, over four miles of fair hunting country, the winning flag being pitched upon Morden common, at the back of the Lord Nelsen Inn. Cheam. The start took place at White's farm, .Kingston, about half-past three o'clock, Mr. Hopkins getting a slight advantage at the start, which he kept for a short distance, Mr. Brettell, however, being well up. They continued in this situation ever the first two or three fences, the country being dreadfully heavy and the fences diffi cult. At the Alorden river Mr. Brettell went over the ford and got safely through. Mr. Hopkins, however, put his horse at it, though in a slanting position, and he failed to accomplish the leap and went into the middle of the stream, unhorsing his rider, who got a complete ducking. lie speedily remounted him, and in two or three fields was again well up with his antagonist. The race was now very interest ing; the horses were almost neck and neck, and going at racing speed, and they both came together to the grip way which car ries off the land water from the whole of this neighbourhood, and which from the heavy rains was a somewhat formidable obstacle to encounter, being upwards of seven feet deep, and nearly thirteen feet over, Both horses, however, cleared it in good style, and up to the last flag the horses appeared so equally matched that it was difficult to form an opinion which would be the winner. At the last fence, however, Mr. Brettel made a swerve to the left, cleared the hedge first, and thus got the start, which enabled him to bring his horse in the winner by two or three lengths. It was understood that a good deal of money changed hands on the occasion.— Cambridge Advertiser. LORD LTNEDOCII AND TIIE DEACON OF THE FLESH 119. —This illustrious Nobleman was more celebrated for his doings than his sayings. Of the latter, however, one uttered in the battle-field will long live in military history— " Spare your powder, my lads, but give them plenty of steel." Another at the festive board, although well known to moat of our local readers, we believe has not yet appeared in print. It was on the occasion of the entertainment given here, on his return from the Peninsula, by the Trades of Perth ; and, in the course of the evening, when the good cheer had begun to remove .the restraint which the rank and fame of the dis tinguished guest had at first imposed on his entertainers—the Deacon of the Fleshers, getting familiar with the gallant Lord, ventured to ask in his most coaxing manner, " Come, noo, General, hoo mony men may ye hae killed wi' your own hand?" " Ah, Deacon," was the ready reply, " I have never shed so much blood in my life as you !"—Perth Courier. THREE VALUABLE HORSES BURNT TO DEATH. — About nine o'clock on Monday night the stable, coach-house, loft, and other outbuildings, the property of Mr. Hollis, sur geon' Lewisham village, about two miles from Greenwich, took fire, and being old wooden buildings, were speedily con sumed, together with three favourite and valuable horses, har ness, &c. A plentiful supply of water was at hand, and the destructive element was subdued in less than an hour. The groans of the poor animals were exceedingly distressing, but such was the fury of the flames, that it was impossible to ex tricate them. A HINT FOR TIM CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.— Before the Court proceeded to business on Saturday morning, the Lord Chief Justice Clerk stated, that he had been informed that money had been received for admission to the Court by the door-keepers, and that a gentleman on the preceding day had been refused admission because he would not pay for it. His Lordship strongly deprecated the practice of demanding or taking money for admittance into an open Court ; and inti mated his determination to visit with punishment any door keeper whe should be found guilty of doing so.—Edpiburgh Journal. Y~ y ~ iIU~ DOG-FIGITTING ON THE SABBATH MORNING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Allow me to make known, through the itn partlal medium of your excellent journal, that dog fighting is carried into execution in defiance of the law on Sabbath mornings during the stilly hour of Divine service, when the humane and Christian portion are supplicating at the throne of mercy. The " National Animals' Friend So• ciety" should investigate this in the neighbour hoods and vicinities of Southwark and Clerkenwell, and one or two exposures would, I have no doubt, relieve the inhabitants from such disgusting nuisances. _ M I am, &c.

Bd. ; Li ver p oo l, 6s. ; Cheltenham, Glasgow, and Bradford, 7s. ; Paisley and Newcastle, 7s. 6d. The effect which lowering the price of an article like gas has upon its eonsumption was, perhaps, diver better exemplified than in the statistics of Manchester, when. in 1833, the charge was 10s. 6d. per 1,000 feet, the profits then. were 8292/. ; hi 1834, it was 10s. 3d., the profits 10,1914 ; in. 1835, 10s. in 1836, 95., profits 16,196/. ; its 1837, Bs.

These facts speak for themselves.—. Cambridge Adrertiser. STEEPLE CHASE NEAR 13RIGHTON.—A steeple chase,: which excited great interest in the sporting world of Brighten,. took place on Monday near the northern entrance to the Clay-. ton tunnel on the London and Brighton Railway. The mateh originated oat of an after-dinner conversation between Sir Arthur Chichester and Captain Bush* (of the 7th Hussars) as to the comparative merits of their hunters, and bets to e considerable amount were made on the event. The principalt points of attraction were the passage of a gate at the start, and. a double fence near the close of the race. Sir Arthur Chiches— ter's horse refused the gate several times, and went over the fence in a bungling manner ; while Captain Bushe took both in good style, and beat his opponent by about half-a-slozers. lengths. THE ROYAL STAG HOUNDS.—At eleven o'clock on Monday a field of upwards of 100 had assembled, ineluding Lord Norbury, Messrs. Worley, Pole, Stainforth, Warde. and Vyse, and several military officers from Windsor, met at Winkfield church ; and a slight thaw having commenced, the' Richmond hind was uncarted (after waiting for an hour) at Broekhill, between twelve and one o'clock, going away t , s, Hawthorn-hill, doubling to the left to Jealous-hill, on to. Weston-mill, and thence back again to Hawthorn. The hind then made for Brick-bridge, crossing for Bray-common,. swimming over the Cut, and down to 1 hatchen-end ; thence away for llollyport, doubling back through the woods to White Waltham, and was there taken near the residence of 11r. Pole, after a run of about an hour and a half. The country in many places was exceedingly hard from the frost during the night, and somewhat dangerous to horse and rider. DHATir FROM GLANDERS. --The Paris Moniteur Monday quotes the following from a letter from Careassonne : --" M. Basle, veterinary surgeon of the 9th Chasseurs, who was married only three weeks since, died on the 31st of' December of glanders, caught while attending a horse ill of that disease. It appears that the contagion of this cruel malady was communicated to the olfactory organs through the indiscreet zeal of M. Bad& who, in desiring to investigate all the symptoms of the sick animal, had the imprudence to smells and inhale the odour arising from the matter discharged from. the horse's nostrils!" The Moniteur is in error in supposing that deaths from glanders are by any means uncommon. It is. scarcely a year since there were two patients affected by this. horrible disease in one of our metropolitan hospitals, and a third,. in attending upon these originally affected, contracted the malady. All three died. PROMULGATION OF THE STATUTES.—AOOOrdiDg to the resolutions of both Houses of Parliament, a scheme was recently adopted for the promulgation of the statutes, and from. a return made in the early part of last session, it appears that in the year 1841 no fewer than 4,135 Acts were sent out to. public offices, to cities, counties, and boroughs, to Sheriffs, and other persons. It seems that 1,202 statutes wero sent to the two Houses of Parliament-421 to the House of Lords, and 681 to the House of Commons. Others to Sheriffs, clerks or the peace, &c., as well as to persons in Wales and Scotland. Lord Northwick has sufficiently recovered from his late serious indisposition, to be able to resume his accustomed exercise, and personally to return the visits of his many anxious friends. Cheltenham Looker-on. THE WEST CALDER MURDER.—Certaill illfOrMatiOll was received here on Saturday, that Bryce had been appre hended in Maxwelltown, Dumfries, on the preceding day. He had been come up to by a gentleman while going into Maxwell town, who, entering into some conversation with him, and closely remarking his person and dress, felt satisfied he was the• individual advertised for as the suspected murderer of Geddes. The gentleman immediately gave information to the police, and Bryce was soon afterwards in safe custody..-Caledonian. Mercury. THE LINENDRAPERS' INSTITUTION.—The annuaL ball in aid of the funds of this institution, held at Willie's= rooms last night, assembled a party of nearly 600 persons, and. the stewards, emulating each other in the benefits they could. render, excited an interest unequalled by any previous ball.. Jullien's band was in attendance. The refreshments, suppliedf by Mr. Younghusband, gave all the satisfaction that could be desired. It is gratifying to observe the success of this benevo lent institution, inasmuch as it was one of the first of the various trades which sought to introduce the establishment of funds to be administered to individuals in particular communi ties, without the humiliating feelings which must everjaitend the receipt of charity. There is now a fund of some thousands o f pounds exceeding the permanent sum required by the rules. DEATH FROM IlynaornoniA.—Between four and five o'clock on Monday afternoon last, a lad, named Enos Hayward, 17 years of age, a stable-boy, in the service of Mr. Warwinsh, of Carshalton, Surrey, was admitted into St. Thomas's Hospital suffering from hydrophobia. He was brought to the above Institution from Carshalton in a ily„ and while being assisted to alight he was seined with a pa roxysm of the disease, barking loudly like a dog, and attempt ing 4.3 bite the persons near him ; so exceedingly violent were his struggles, that it required the exertions of four strong men to carry him up into George's Ward, and he was obliged to be held down in bed by main force. During the intervals of the succession of attacks he was assailed with, he was per fectly rational, and frequently remarked that the attendants need not be afraid, as he would not hurt any of them ; he also said lie had no doubt he should be better by the morrow, and seemed to be totally unconscious of the fatal nature of the. malady he was afflicted with. Every possible attention was paid him, but he expired at about eleven o'clock the same night.. lie had, it appears, been bitten about six weeks ago by a dog that had strayed into the stable-yard; the wound was very slight, and, healing quickly, no further notice was taken of it.. During Sunday last he complained of sharp pains in the neck and a peculiar uneasiness about the throat, and on Monday last unequivocal symptoms of the frightful disease ho was suffering , under indicated themselves. MELANcnom- SUICIDE.—An inquest was held yes terday at the Baker's Hall, llarp-lane, Tower-street. before Mr. Payne, on the body of Mary Anne Schafer, aged thirty. George Evans, City police-constable, 503, said, that 011 Saturday evening last he was on duty in. Trinity-square, Tower, when ho received informatiora that the deceased was lying on the ground in Savage gardens, and was in want of immediate assistance. Her found her in an insensible state, and a phial and cup, both of which had recently been emptied of essential oit of almonds, by her side. Witness carried her to Mr. Ager, surgeon in Trinity-square, where means for her recovery were instantly adopted. Restoratives, however, were of no avail, and she died in about an hour. Wit ness found in her pocket a letter addressed to a very respectable ship-broker. Witness believed the deceased to be an " unfortunate woman." The Coroner read the. letter alluded to by the witness, and it appeared that the deceased and the person referred to had been on terms of intimacy for several years. The object for which it was written was to get money, and deceased complained of having been abandoned. It stated that he was them cause of what she was going to do. Mary Keene, of No. 34, Fleet-lane, Smithfield, said that deceased had resided in her house. On Saturday last she spoke much and very feelingly of Mr. —, and said that she was that day going to carry him a letter. Deceased was very much attached to him. Mr. —, senior, said that his son, being desirous of breaking off the acquaintance, offered her 31. a few days ago, on condition that he should be subject to no further pecuniary claim ; she re jected the offer, and since then he had not seen her. She drank the poison near his door. Verdict—Tem porary insanity. INQUESTS IN CASES OF SUDDEN DEATIL—At the conclusion of an inquest held yesterday before Mr. Higgs, Deputy-Coroner for Westminster, the foreman of the jury, addressing the Coroner, wished to know if he was sot going to hold an inquest upon the body of Mr. Stephenson, the, vestry clerk of St. Margaret's parish, who had on the pre vious day suddenly dropped down dead in the vestry, whiles in the act of handing round the book containing the misntess of that body for their signatures? The Coroner, in reply,. said ho certainly had heard of the circumstances attending Mr. Stephenson's death, and he did not think that therm was any necessity for troubling a jury, as his information& was that he had died in the presence of a very full vestry * and there was no suspicion whatever of his having takers anything to destroy himself. The foreman said that he was always led to believe that the Coroner had no option in all cases of sudden death bat to bold an inquest. The Coronet observed that if he was as fully satisfied in eases of sudden death as in that he never thought of holding an inquest. Tho foreman thought in every case, let the party be rich or peor, it should be investigated; if not, such conduct on the part of thee Coroner was open to severe animadversions, and it was evens then rumoired in that neighbourhood that the Coroner would not hold an inquest upon Mr. Stephenson, because by so act ing he would obtain a higher fee than that awarded to him by the county. The Coroner remarked, that a prospect of a re ward, however great, should never bias him to a dereliction of his public duty; and concluded, by saying that if he heard from other quarters any dissatisfaction expressed of no inqury being made as to the decease of Mr. Stephenson, he should issue hi* warrant for the summoning of a jury forthwith. NIGEIT POAC DINO.—ROC HESTER, JAN. 1.5.—Th0 neighbourhood of the Earl of Darnley's estates, at Cobham, is greatly infested by poachers, although the exertions of th© trustees have lately thinned the fraternity. This morning el notorious character, named James Goodhew, was brought tie. fore the Magistrates, charged with trespassing upon land Ira the occupation of Mr. William Lake, at Chalk, on Wednesday night last, with wires, in the pursuit of game. The prisoner, who had been convicted of poaching twice before, pleadel guilty to day poaching, but not guilty to night poaching. Thomas Capps, gamekeeper to the Darnley estates, said on Wednesday evening last I saw the prisoner on William Lake's land. Saw him set wires for hares. It was about a quarter past five in the evening. I had found the wire* about half an hour before. They bad fallen down, and 11 went into the wood a few roods distant, and lay down to watch. The prisoner came and set the wires up. It wet so dark that he could only find them by kicking about. I rani out and caught him, and searched him, and, as he resisted, I let him go, and afterwards hail him apprehended. I know it was past five o'clock. The Bench said that the question tamed on whether or not it was night, and, on consulting the Al. manack, found that the son set on that day at four minutes past four o'clock. The Bench convicted the prisoner, who pro. raised, if let off, not to repeat the offence. The Rev. G. Davi* told him that he thought it was not in his power to refra e i: from poaching. He had as great a taste for it as g e a n n tlf s m en. had for sporting, but the game must be protected , nment d and hard tenced the prisoner to two months' impri so nment so_ in W. each for his good behaviour, or o labour, and at the expiration of that t t im b e e for six months. s claiming allowance I ; u %er t im ° p s r i lso re n ti cl i INCOME-TAX .—Person s on or beore the h o f f -1 equire d to mak e their first of February nex t, or the y will not be alowed. empty .s lxe property, r for th e year t en d in g oiaim 9t~l ~Jii r~~f,• A UDITORS.

VII HE OJIBBEWAY INDIAN S 1 The " Ojibbeway Indians" visiting Britain, Is a matter concerning which much has been written. Some folks are, it seems, at a loss to conceive Why they ventur'd their own native country to leave. Many say 'twits to see the young Queen on her throne, And such is a likely opinion, we own ' • But let us endeavour (for that wil l be best), To set the whole matter completely at rest. One reason, perhaps, why the foreigners came , Was to visit our wonderful houses of fame. Such a thing they would never have done, Had they not been induced by E. MOSES and SON. We have often asserted (and not in vain boast), That our fame is in many a far-distant coast ; And thus the Ojibbeway Indians heard Of the warehouse by which the whole world appears stirr'd ; And hence, with a high curiosity smitten, They, doubtless, determined on visiting Britain. Then success to the Indians ! lasting success ! And may they be tempted to alter their " dress." Our clothing is made on a much better plan, And will do them more service than their garments can. And thus will they profit by what they have done In coming to visit E. MOSES and SON. READY MADE. £ S. d.
