the rear of the lodge. He at once proceeded there,
and found deceased lying on the floor, apparently
lifeless, her clothes in flames. He, with assistance,
extinguished the fire, and communicated with Mr.
Dunn, surgeon, who found the deceased quite dead,
she having been badly burned about the face, neck,
and ear, with a wound near the right temple, no doubt
caused by falling. A verdict of "A ccidental Death
by Burning" was returned.
An inquest was also held at the Red Lion Inn,
Quinton, touching the death of Edith Grovener 4
years, who died on the 24th inst., from injuries re-
ceived by burning on tne 17th instant.—Henry
Grovener stated that at the time of the accident the
child's mother was away from home. He being left
in charge, had left the house for a few minutes, when
his attention was attracted by the child's cries. He
found her clothes on fire. Mr. Phillips attended the
girl until the 24th, when she died from congestion of
the lungs, caused by burning.—An open verdict was
returned.

A third inquest was held at the Wagon and Horses
Inn, Long Lane, touching the death of Walter Jones,
aged 3 years, son of Isabella Jones, who was burned
on the 23rd, and died on the 24th inst. The mother
stated that her husband had left the matches upon
the hob, and the child was found, after her temporory
absence, to have been playing with them upon the
hearth, his clothes being on fire. Mr. Dunn, surgeon,
was called and attended the child until:the following
day, when he died from the injuries received. A
verdict of "Accidental Death " was returned by the
jury.

THROAT AFFECTIONS AND HOARSENESS.—AII suffering
from irritation of the throat and hoareness will be agree
ably surprised at the almost immediate relief afforded
by the use of "Brown's Bronchial Troches." These
famous " lozenges " are now sold by most respectable
chemists in this country, at is lid per box. People
troubled with a "hacking cough," a " slight cold," oe
bronchial affections cannot try them too soon, as similar
troubles, if allowed to progress, result in serious Pulsiod
nary and Asthmatic affections. See that the words
"Brown's Bronchial Troches" are on the Governmen-
Stamp around each box.—Manufactured by Jolts I.

CURES BY DR. LOCOCK's PULMONIC WAFERS.—" Coughs
Colds, Consumption, Asthma, Bronchial Affections are so
quickly and surely removed by them that I must earnest-
ly request you to let them be still more widely known in
this great commercial centre."—From Mr. Morris, M.

Throat and Lungs, Rheumatism, and all Hysterical and
Nervous Complaints, they give instant relief. Sold by all

Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—Rheumatism, Nos-
ralgia.—lt is sometimes difficult to determine which of
these diseases is afflicting the sufferer, but such tinier. ,
tainty will be immateral if Holloway's remedies be used.
They alleviate and cure all muscular and nervous pains,
In hereditary rheumatism, after bathing the affected
part with warm salt water, Hollowaya Oinkrient should
be well rubbed upon the spot that it may penetrate and
exert its soothing and regulating properties on the deep-
er vessels and nerves which being unduly exited, cause
both pain and swelling. Holloway's treatment has tthe
merit of removing the disease without debilitating the
constitution which was the inevitable result of the bleed-
inw mercury, and colchicum practice formerly adopted
in these complaints.
The PRIVATION OF THE USE OF ONES'S 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 gout. To walk
without enduring agony is impossible, to use the arms,
free from excruciating pain, is equally impracticable. A
feeling of gratitude therefore pervades the frame when
the means are afforded of using all the members without
judicious and frequent application of PowELL's Itnnu-
nem EMlRocAytoN. It is past all doubt the grandees
specific for the evils we have named, and others of a
similar character. May be obtained of all Chemists.

THE TEA TRADE.

COMPTON HOUSE, BASNETT STREET,

LIVERPOOL, DEC. 1874.
TN our Circular for November we drew atten-
tion to the large supplies of TEh available
this Season. We have now to report an addi-
tional Extensive Import, making our Stocks un-
usually heavy, and thus affording us such an
opportunity as rarely occurs far the selection
of ,snitable quantities for our business.
We have availed ourselves of the opeaioi
afforded by the large acctuntlation of Stock--
now einouftting to Twenty Minya Pounds iu
excess e,f last year—to farther our aim by bring-
ing before the public thoroughly satisfactory
Tiles, which we can confidently recommend as
giving full value at our quotations.
The qualities selling by us at 1/.. 2/8, 3/., k
5/6 are those best adapled for our eustereers'
requirements. In our reoeni purchases we have
been exceptionally fortunate in securing TRAS
to meet this public taste, and we now beg to
invite the attention of consumers to the special
advantages we are enabled to offer therein
consequent upon the large sale we find for these
descriptions in particular.

Our new Premises, part of the well-known
COMPTON HOUSE, in immediate proximity
to the leading thoroughfares of the town, and to
the LIME-STREET and CENTRAL STATIONS, are
conveniently situated; and as it will be my study
to give to all orders my personal attention, I
hope to enjoy a continuance of the public favour
so long accorded to the late Firm.

The following list is framed more as a guide to the seise-
tion of suit tble qualities, feeling confident that superi-
ority of quality will always be appreciated as the true
test of cheapness :
