SID ACCIDENT.—An accident occurred on Tuesday
afternoon, resultin, in serious injury to Mr. Thomas
Baker, jun , son of Mr. Thomas Baker (of the firm
of Messrs. Bankhouse and Baker, auctioneers), and
twenty-three year's of age. •lle was riding a colt on
the road towards Bewdley, about four o'clock pin.,
and wt;en he had reached the Fountain the hoist
shied and threw h:m, and afterwards fell over and
rolled 01 him Messrs. Pickard and Brown, tvho
were driving towed cl 4 Kidderminster, witnes4cd the
occurrence, and went to the assistance of the unfor- .
tun ate young man. News wa,- conveyed to Bewdley,
and his mother, ac .ompanied by Mr. Gabb and
another surgeon, were soon on the spot. It was
some time before the medical men would allow him
to be removed. He was, however, eventwAly con-
veyed to his home and sedulously attended.
AN AuCTIONEER'S COMMIBSION.-At the C ,unty
Court on Wednesday, before Mr. Rupert Kettle
(judge), an action was brought by Mr. A. Beale,
auctione,r, to recover £26 Ss. from M . James.
Higgs, for commission on the sale of some property
which realised £B5O. Mr. M. Corbett Was for the
plaintiff, and Mr. Tree, of Worcester, for the defend-
ant. It appeared that defei,dant Lad employed
plaintiff to sell some property for hi mby auction,
and agreed to give him £5 and pay the usual com-
mission. The property was not sold by auction, but
a few days after the sale was held Mr. Beale re-
ceived an offer of £B4O for it. This he communi-
cated to Mr. Higgs, but the latter declined to accept
it. Some time afterwards plaintiff learned that
defendant had sold the property for £B5O. It was
' stated in the course of the case that three other lots
of property were included in the same sale.—His
Honour held that plaintiff was enti.led to a rateablet
proportion of his commi-sion on the sale of the pro-
perty belonging to defendant, and gave a verdict-
for 1,1 per cent, commission and £4 cost—l 4 12s.

The Paivanon OF TEM USE OF OE3B'B LIMBS while the
other functions of Nature are intact is a serious mortifica-
tion to the actively disposed. Such, however, is the con•
dition of the victims of rheumatism or goat. To walk
without enduring agony is impossible, to use the arms,
free from excruciating pain, is equally impracticable.
feeling of gratitude therefore pervades the frame whey
the means are afforded of using all he members without
suffering. This, we confidently affirm is presented in
the judicious and frequent application of POWELL'S
