was the son of a poor weaver, and for many years had
to struggle with the most depressing poverty. The
efforts of this excellent man of genius appear to have
been greater and more protracted than those of any
other on record ; but he was finally rewarded with the
highest honours.
Bandoccin, one of the learned men of the sixteenth
century, was the son of a shoemaker, and worked for
many years at the same business.
Gelli, a celebrated Italian writer, began life as a
tailor, and, although he rose to eminence in literature,
never forgot his original profession, which he took
pleasure in mentioning in his lectures.
The elder Opie, whose talent for painting was well
appreciated, was originally a working carpenter in
Cornwall, and was discovered by Dr. Walcott—other-
wise Peter Pindar—workiug as a sawyer at the bottom
of a saw-pit.
Abbott, Archbishop of Canterbury, who flourished
in the sixteenth century, and distinguised himself by
opposing the schemes of Charles 1., was the son of a
cloth-worker at Guildford.

Akenside, the author Pleasures of Imagination,
was the son of a butcher in Newcastle-upon-Tyne,

D'Alembert, the French mathematician, was left at
the steps of a church by his parents, and brought up
by a poor woman as a foundling, yet arrived at great
celebrity, and never forgot or abandoned his nurse.
Ammenius Saccophorus, founder of the Mystic
Philosophy at Alexandria, was born in poverty, and

ASTOUNDING CURE OF SCROFULA.

Wm. Pogue, of Emyvale (a man well known in that neighbour-
hood), was afflicted for three years with Scrofula on the left arm :
there were four ulcers which discharged continuously, and reduced
the poor feIIRYC tflAlatraiitleinan, and consulted niany others,
Cut derived no benefit whatever. At last he had recourse to
Holloway's Ointment and Pills. and by persevering with these
remedies, in the course of eight weeks his arm was completely
well, and his health thoroughly reestablished.—The truth of this
statement can be verified by many of the inhabitants of Emyvale,
and particularly by Mr. Patrick McKenna, druggist, of that place.

ASTONISHING CURE OF AN ULCERATED LEG AFTER

THREE HOSPITALS FAILED!

Copy of a Letter
_fray, .11;.. TV. Hare, of Exeter, dated
22nd :•eptember, 1554.
Ti Professor Holloway,—.\ man naineil Wm Hall, in the employ
of Mr. C. Sclater, nurseryman, of this coy, has desired me to make
known to you t .;e benefit he has received from using your Oint-
ment and Pills. For three years this poor au suffered terrible
with a severely ulcerated leg, and during this time he sought
relief at Guy's, King's College, and the Devon and Exeter Hos-
pitals, and was finally told by a Surgeon that amputation of the
limb was necessary to save his life ; however, instead of this
advice, he immediately had recourse to your Ointment and Pills,
and they have done bins more good than all the other medicines
put together, he being now able to follow his occupation, and
rapidly gaining health and strength.—l remain, &c.,

SCIEIVC.F AND ART.

A NEw PAINT.—.-I beg, says Mr. Wentworth L.
Scott, analytical chemist, to call the attention of the
building world in general to the results of some expe-
riments I have lately made, with the view of discover-
ing a wash or paint more durable than the lime-wash
so often complained of, and at the same time cheaper
than the oil-paint in ordinary use. This object, I
think, I have fully attained. The first method I will
introduce to your notice, consists in boiling together
for half an hour—
Commercial shell-lac 1 lb.
Ditto borax (tincal).. „
And water r. 14:1 imp• gall.
allowing the solution to stand until quite cold, and
then straininc, through bags of some strong coarse
material. Thee' solution, thus prepared should be mixed
with from 6 lbs. to 8 lbs. of finely-ground dry white
lead, and raised once more to the boiling point, with
constant agitation. When cool, it may be stowed
away in casks or carboys, or any description of vessel
which will perfectly exclude the air, and will be fit for
use at any time, with the simple preparation of stirring
it well up. This paint laid on stone, brick, stucco, or
wood, in the usual manner, will dry in from thirty
minutes o two hours, according to the density or
porosity of the material ; so that a day would be more
than sufficient time for the laying-on and drying of
several coats, It possesses a mellow, pinkish-white
colour, very agreeable to the eye, produced by the

The Rev. Joseph Clarke preached his farewell sermon on
Sunday week, at Sephton Church, previously to entering upon
his appointment as Incumbent of St. Luke's, Great Crosby.
On Sunday week, the Rev. William Anderson O'Con-
nor preached a farewell sermon at St. Luke's, Great Crosby.
His labours in that place have been brief, but those labours
have been characterised by so much discretion, so much humi-
lity and Christian zeal, that the congregation, especially the
poor, deeply regret his removal.
El Tr ibuno, of Carthagena, publishes with expressions of
high satisfaction an event which it declares will be memorable
in the history of that city. On the 12th of Aug. last, public
worship was celebrated for the first time in New Granada ac-
cording to the Anglican ritual, accompanied with the public
delivery of a discourse by a clergyman of the Reformed faith.
The preacher was the Rev. Ramon Monsalvatage, and the
audience "partly Protestant and partly Catholic."
THE REV. W. CURLING, minister of St. Saviour's, South-
wark, preached in the open air on Sunday, in Pepper•street,
Southwark, a locality of the lowest description, and densely
populated. The rev. gentleman stood near the house in which a
woman had lived who was killed a few days ago, and took his
text from Ezekiel xxxiii. 11—" As I live, saith the Lord God,
I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the
wicked turn from his way and live. Turn ye, turn ye, from
your evil ways, for why will ye die ?" He was attentively
listened to by many hundreds of the inhabitants ; and al-
though the streets and windows were densely crowded, and
every available situation within sight occupied, not the
slightest interruption took place.

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY

POTTED BEEFS TWO pounds of beef put into a stone
jar, with a little pepper and salt, and a little water, a
little beef suet on the top of the jar, tied down and
baked until tender ; then beat in a mortar with a little
of the gravy ; season to taste; then put in pots when
cold, and ,a little butter.

SPONGE CAKES.—Take seven eggs, and leave out
the whites of three of them ; ten ounces of sugar, half
a pound of flour, and the rind of a lemon grated ; boil
the sugar in lumps in half a tea-cupful of water, pour
it boiling on the eggs, beat them together for twenty
minutes, and stir in the flour gradually.

SOUFFLET PUDDING.—Mix a bit of butter with two
table-spoonfuls of flour in cold water, pour over it half
a pint of milk boiled with sugar and lemon-peel, and
boil it, but keep stirring. Add the yolks of four eggs,
leaving the whites to be whipped. Pour all into a
mould, and boil an hour and a quarter.
MOCK BRAWN.—Lay a pig's head in salt with a
little saltpetre for three days, then wash and clean it
well, and boil till the bones slip out ; then chop the
meat up together, and mix in a pan with salt, pepper,
and mace, rub a little dried sage, and mix all together
to your taste ; then tie it in a cloth, and put it again
in the boiler ; when quite hot, put it in the shape,
either with or without the cloth.

BLANCMANGE.—A- gill of cream, an ounce of ising-
glass dissolved in the third part of a pint of water,
with a tea-cupful of new milk ; put in the oven to dis-
solve, an ounce of almonds and a little cinnamon ; cut
the almonds in pieces, and boil all together for twenty
minutes ; strain it through a piece of muslin ; stir till
quite thick and nearly cold, then put it into moulds.
APPLE JELLY.—Pare your apples, cut them in
quarters, and put them in cold water sufficient to cover;
boil them till they become a mass, then put them into
a flannel jelly-bag to clear the juice, and to every pint
of juice put one pound of good loaf sugar ; boil it in a
topper pan for twenty minutes, then try it on the back
of a plate to see if it will jelly, by putting it in a cold
place ; if not, boil it a few minutes longer, take it off'
the fire, let it stand a few minutes till the scum has
settled on the surface, which must be removed with a
skimmer, and it is then fit to put into your pots when
cold. Cut pieces of paper to the size of your pots, and
steep them in brandy, to cover the jelly. If you wish
your jelly of a high colour, do not pare your apples.

THE OIDIUM, OR VINE PLAGUE.

Like the malady which for several successive seasons
almost annihilated the potato crop, this strange disorder
is:obscure both as to its nature, its origin, its causes, and
the treatment by which it may be removed or allayed. It
is:even difficult to point out any given direction which has
been followed by the invasion of this scourge, or to fix
upon any particular place or places iu which it might be
said to have taken its rise. It has been nearly simul-
taneous, and widely diffused over a very large segment of

belief amongst the poor being, that the law not only allowed,
but commands that persons so affected should be destroyed by
poison, suffocation, or bleeding, she begged only for a respite.
The scene was heartrending in the extreme. She foamed, and
the presence of viscid saliva in her mouth and about her lips
made her furious. Whilst it hung there she was in dreadful
agony. If she touched it with her hand or arm in her spas-
modic attempts to get rid of it, she was violently convulsed.
In the short intervals between these pangs she was calm, but
looked unearthly, and spoke like a Sybil of things to come.
Her sufferings were prolonged until two, p.m., on Sunday.
Stupor seized her sometime that morning, and in that state
she died.—Carnarvon Herald.

prices continue to be paid. The few boxes of bacon left in the
hands of dealers are being retailed off at extravagant rites. Owing
to want of stock there are no transactions to report in. lard f the
quotations are nominal. The better qualities of cheese move off
steadily, while inferior aorta are neglected :. a considerable parcel
will be offered by auction on the 16th instant.
OCTOIIHR B.—The butter market has become less active, and
only a moderate business was transacted during the past week.
Prices may be considered the turn lower. but not of that impor-
tance to warrant any change in quotations. The supply is liberal,
and stocks are rather on the increase. Waterford and Dungarvan,
998 to 1036; Kilkenny, Carrick, Wexford, Clonmel, and Carlow,
98s to 1015; Limerick, 95s to 986 ; and Sligo, 958 to 99s per cwt.
