in offering to his numerous Patrons his best thanks for

begs to inform them that, owing to the failing health of
Mrs. Mudd and himself, he is very reluctantly com-

CURE OF DROPSY
Go:norsal, Leeds.
"Dear Sir,—This is to certify that two
eleven shilling bottles of Clarke's Blood
Mixture cured my wife when three eminent
doctors were powerless.',
"Her complaint was dropsy, Rua
been ill nearly ten years. You are at liberty
to publish this if you please.—Yours truly,
Jour; Cox.'
IMPORTANT ADVICE TO ALL.—Cleanse
the vitiated blood whenever you find its im
purities bursting through the skin in pimples,
eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when you find
it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse
i when it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Keep the blood pure, and the
health of the system will follow.
As this mixture is pleasant to the taste, and
warranted free from anything injurious to the
most delicate constitution of either sex, the
Proprietors solicits sufferers to give it a trial
to test its value.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
The Universal Remedy for Bad Legs
Bad Breasts, Old Wounds, and
Ulcerations of all kinds.
There is no medicinal preparation which may be so
shoroughly relied upon in the treatment of the above sal.
ments as Holloway's Ointment. Rubbed upon the surface
of the body, over, or near the affected parts, it disappears
under the friction of the hand, penetrating at once to the
source of the evil, and thus performs its healing errand
rapidly, safely, and without pain. In all long standing
cases, Holloway's Pills should also be taken as they purify
he Blood and expel all depraved humours from the system
Coughs, Colds, Sore Throats, and
Bronchitis.
This Ointment is irresistible in the cure of these throat and
pectoral complaints, which when neglected often end in
settled Asthma or Consumption. The Ointment well
rubbed upon the Chest and back, night and morning
penetrates the skin, and thus absorbed, is carried directly
to the Lungs, where, in immediate contact with the whole
mass of circulating Blood, it neutralizes or expels all im-
purities. By these means all pulmonary complaints may
be cured with rapidity and ease.
Disorders of the Kidneys, and Stone
Gravel.
U any of the above complaints more benefit may be
derived in twenty-hours, by ad optin, the following simple
means, than could be brought abou six mouths by any
other treatment. In bad cases, if tto; ointment be diligently
rubbed into the small of the back, over the region of the
Kidneys, it will quickly penetrate and give immediate
relief- Six or eight of the Pills should be taken nightl/
according to circumstances.
Gout, Rheumatism, and Stiff Joints.
This invaluable Ointment excercises a more obvious contro.
over (lout and Rheumatism, than any other Medicine. No
one need remain uncured, who will in good earnestmake
a vigorous application of this infallible remedy—according

Peasant proprietorship does not pay in Germany.
It is stated that the small farmers cannot hold their own
there, and nearly 4,000 farms were sold last year, while over
1,000 were put up for sale which could not find purchasers.
An official return recently published shows that on
the let December, 1880. there were in India 8,734 enrolled
volunteers, of whom 6,950 were efficient.
Surely here is a case for reciprocity. Land and Water
points out that a French fisherman, finding himself in an
English port, is allowed to dispose of his fish freely, but if an
English fisherman is driven, say into Boulogne, by bad
weather, he is only allowed to sell just as much as will pay
for provisions for his homeward voyage.—Globe.
There were 25 British and foreign wrecks, of which
ten were British, one being a steamer, reported daring the
past week, making a total of 1,182 for the present year, or
an increase of 186 as compared with the corresponding
period of last year. The approximate value of property lost
was £4,700,000, including British, £2,200,000.
Last week's receipts of cotton at all United States
ports have been 110,000 bales, and since let September,
1881, 320,000 bales. Exports to Great Britain, 42,000 bales, and
to the Continent and Channel, 2,000 bales; total since Ist
September, 1881, 145,000 bales. Stock at all ports, 342,000
bales.
In London last week, 2,330 births and 1,279 deaths
were registered. Allowing for increase of population, the
births were 205 and the deaths 108 below the average
numbers in the corresponding week of the last ten years.
The annual death-rate from all causes, which had not ex-
ceeded 161, 16-7, and 15.7 per 1,000 in the three preceding
weeks, rose last week to 174. The 1,279 deaths included 28
from small-pox, 17 from measles, 48 from scarlet fever, 14
from diphtheria, 31 from whooping cough, three from typhus
fever, 40 from enteric fever, two from ill-defined forma of
continued fever, 33 from diarrhcea, and three from
dysentery.
According to the New York Financial Chronicle the
lowest rates ever made on corn and wheat from Chicago to
New York by lake and canal were made in August, 1881.
The average price for wheat was 71 cents per bushel, and for
corn 6•4 cents per bushel.
About 100 boats entered Whitby Harbour on Tues-
day with catches of herrings ranging from 6,000 to 40,000 per
boat. The total quantity was enormous, and special trams
had to be put on in order to get it away to the various
central markets.
No less than ten observers are now engaged at the
Observatory of Paris in the completion of the catalogue of
stars which was begun by Leverrier. The work is progress-
ing at an unprecedented rate, not less than 70,000 observations

,than water.' And in regard to the Court going into mourn-
ing for the President of the great Republic, which has caused
