LAWRENCE HALL deems i t a duty to hi mse lf and the Public to gua rd them agains t the many spurio us imitations which are daily foisted upon them under the va rious denominations of " Best Patent Starch," " Best White Patent Starch," " Patent Glazed Starch," " Satin Faced Starch," " Superior Patent Starch," &c. &c. These inva riably disappoint consumers, and greatly injure them by a n inferior article being imposed on them as his make. It is a fact well known, that it was a f ew y ears after Mr. HALL took out a Patent for his invention before he brought the Article to the perfection for general use to which it has now attained; and it is better known still, that all the imi tators have utterly failed in making a Starch at all similar or equal to HALL'S Patent St arc h, ot h er makers being ig norant of his present mode of preparing it ; and if such were not the case, their premises and s it ua tion would not be suitable. Purchasers of Starch are therefore particularly requested not to be deceived by a spurious article, and they are respectfully requested to ask for HALL'S IMPROVED PATENT STARCH. No other Makers of Starch ever had a Patent for it. Wholesale Agents J. and R. RAIMES and Co.,Edinburgh. Sold, as usual, by all respectable Grocers and talian Ware housemen, &c. in the kingdom.

M. begs respectfully to recommend to Ladies and Gen tlemen visiting watering places or travelling this emolient Soap. It renders the hardest water soft, and makes the skin white, soft, and healthy ; eradicates roughness and redness ; and will preserve the complexion in any climate.

It preserves the delicate texture of the skin, and its use is highly recommended. And to gentlemen to shave, who have a tender or irritable skin, it is invaluable. J.

Against such imposition, the only security is " CAPTAIN PIDDING'S NAME." This they have not yet forged, and his signature is on every really genuine package.

The stock of flour in bond on that day consisted of 367,132 cwts. the whole of which, with the exception of only 59,617 cwts. from British possessions, was of foreign manu facture. The imports of flour during the month appear to have amounted to 29,789 cwts.; and duty was paid, from sth of May, on 87,219 cwts.-2lfark Lane Express. COURT.MARTIAL.---SINGLLAR APPREHENSION OF A DESERTEII.—A privates named Henry Scond, in the 15th regiment of foot (now in gariison 'at Windsor) Was permitted to leave on furlough, before the regiment left Woolwich, to visit his friends at Reading. Having long exceeded his time of leave he was advertised in the usual way in the Hue and Cry, as a deserter. In the mean time, however, he gave himself up to the officer in command of a recruiting party at Reading, where he was then billeted, and the case reported to the commanding officer. Before a reply was received he again absconded, robbing the landlord of the house he was billeted upon of property to the value of between £5 and £6. From thence, it appeared, he went to Shrewsbury races, where he enlisted in the marines, receiving the usual bounty. He was from thence ordered to proceed to Portsmouth, there to join that division of the regiment ; and while en route, his road leading through Windsor, he very unintentionally (never having been in that town before) passed by the infantry barracks in Sheet-street, when he was recognised by Sergeant Doyle, who happened to be standing at the barrack gate, and was immediately apprehended. It appeared that the deserter was not aware that the 15th had left Woolwich for Windsor. DEATH FROM HYDROPHOBIA.—We have seldom been called on to record a more melancholy event than the fol lowing, which occurred last week at Durnconner, parish of Auchinleck .—lt appears that, about six weeks ago, Mr. John Boswell, farmer there, had in his possession a dog, which manifested strong symptoms of madness ; and, while in a rabid state, had bitten one of his daughters, a girl of fourteen, on the lip, soon after which it ran off; but, the alarm being given, it was pursued and destroyed ; not, however, until it had bitten several individuals, and also eows, in its course towards Galston, where it was killed. Some of the cows have since died, exhibiting every symptom of having been affected with hydrophobia, leaving no doubt whatever on the minds of those who saw them, of the real nature of the dis ease. The girl's lip began to fester shortly after it received the wound, and in a short time healed up. Last week how ever, some symptoms of the terrible malady became apparent greatly to the consternation of her friends, and, indeed, of the whole neighbourhood. These were every day more and more confirmed in the altered manner of the poor girl ; and the unfailing indications of this most Pamentable and distres sing malady manifested themselves so prominently on Mon day, that the paroxysms were awful to witness. The cries and sufferings of the patient were such as might well draw pity from a heart which had never felt its promptings ; and could sympathy alone have procured an alleviation of her sufferings, it would have been well with her ; but, alas ! the devoted girl was destined to suffer ; an d, a f ter th e en d uran ce of the most excruciating torments, she found relief in death on Tuesday morning. The state of mind in which this un fortunate and lamentable event has left the relatives of the poor girl is such as cannot be described ; while the excite ment caused by it is unparalleled in the neighbourhood in which it took place. If the public mind is not made up against the occurrence of such events, this, we think, ought to form a strong inducemont. The many idle and useless dogs found prowling about the country at large, show a highly culpable carelessness on the part of their owners, and call for the intervention of some means, stronger than any heretofore in use, to protect the public, and rid the country of so dangerous a nuisance.—Ayr Advertiser. EXTRAORDINARY MEETING OF A SOCIETY CALLED TIIE GENERAL HOME MISSIONARY SOCIETY.—A meeting of a body styling itself by the above name was held at one of the rooms of Exeter-hall on Friday week, the proceedings at which require publicity. The platform was filled by fourteen persons, calling themselves the missionaries of the society, who appear to be totally unknown and unaccredited to the public, and who have been at once the committee, ma nagers, auditors of accounts, and in fact the entirety of a society which has collected £970 within the year. It further appears, from questions put to the chairman and his coadju tors, by the Rev. R. Ainslie, Drs. Campbell and Matheson, and several other well known ministers, who attended the meeting for the purpose of inquiry into the suspicious cir cumstances connected with this society, that six of these mis sionaries, who are irresponsible, and appoint one another, have been collecting in London for the institution by means which have very much the appearance of fraud. These agents carried with the words—" The General Home Missionary Society " printed upon them, but the word " general," dis guishing it from the old institution founded in 1819, was printed in such faint characters as to be scarcely visible. Besides resorting to these sufficiently equivocal means, the agents went further, and, according to the testimony of the Rev. Mr. Ainslie and the Rev. J. Archer, were accustomed to ask for contributions in behalf of the Home Missionary So ciety, but if the party applied to had already subscribed to that society, the applicant in that case appeared for the General Home Missionary Society. A vast amount of the money ob tained in this notable way was collected in sixpences and lings, the expenditure being, in some places, greater that , the receipts, and £3OO a moderate per tentage in collecting X9OO. These remarkable accounts, it was announced to the meeting, amidst much laughter,. were audited by the missionaries so employed. These are but a few of the facts which came out at the meeting, of which we had prepared a full account, which is unavoidably postponed till next week; the fact that a similar system has been carried on at Liverpool renders a full investigation necessary. The upshot of the proceedings was, that a resolution was carried by a large majority, declar ing the society, as at present constituted and managed, to be unworthy of the public confidence.—Times. [The agents of this society " tried it on "in Liverpool some time ago. We e xposed their manoeuvres, and cautioned the public against them.--En. L. S.] MELANCHOLY AND FATAL ACCIDENT.—Tt is painful to us to relate one of the most distressing gig accidents which has lately come under our notice, and which occurred to Mrs. Hazlehurst (widow of the late Thomas Hazlehurst, Esq., of Runcorn) and family, on Thursday. It appears that since the death of her husband, in February, she has been nervous, low-spirited, and unwell ; and in fine weather has occasion ally took an airing in a pony phaeton for her health. On the evening of that day they left home about five o'clock, the party consisting of Mrs. Hazlehurst, Miss Mary Hazlehurst, Mrs. Greenwood, (a sister-in-law,) and Mr. Thomas Hazle hurst, who drove. They returned at seven, and in going down Bridge-street, the horse took fright at a linen garment blowing off a clothes line into the street, and became per fectly unmanageable, dragging the phaeton violently down the hill. With great exertion Mr. Thomas Hazlehurst suc ceeded in bringing it partially up, by running its head to the Town-hall railing; but before assistance could be obtained, it glanced off there, one wheel coming in contact with the rails, when Mrs. Greenwood was thrown out, and ber clothes hooking to the step, she was dragged a few yards, and much bruised; the horse then galloped down Mersey-street, di. rect for the pier, where the steamers land their passengers and when the frightful, apparent and irremediable death stood so horribly pourtrayed before them, the feelings of the mother for her two darling children were overpowered ; she had pre viously screamed for help, but she now swooned, and fell on the dash-board. A rush was made at the horse's he a d b y two young men who were providentia ll y standin g on the pier, and by forcing him against the c rane, the y staid his mad career, and secured him from doing further mischief. Mrs. Hazlehurst was conveyed home , but still in the fit, out o f which she could never be roused, and without being conscious for a moment, she died at nine re( same evening. Mrs. Greenwood was much hu covering. Mr. Thomas and Miss Mary Hazl receive any bodily injury, but their perilon. the melancholy death of their mother, have minds so much, that they are both ve- Courant. peaking, or ek the rst did not yea upon t Well._.
